Calling out the Pope for being weak and saying how he (trump) got him his position in the first place while showing images depicting him as Jesus. Bold strategy to gain support from Christians...lets see how this turns out.

Because the midterms are coming and Republicans are going to get the thrashing they 100% deserve. Just know this when you start hearing people talk about voter fraud.

ICE is made up of mediocre men, poisoned by hatred and a steady diet of far right propaganda, who have no marketable skills and no job options due to their mediocrity.

ICE agents are too emotional to do their job. They are not cut out for it. I mean, I would hate to see what these people would do in a parking lot full of cars moving near them at 2 mph. Maybe instead of masks on their face they should have diapers on their bottoms.

Minneapolis schools had to close down on Friday due to ICE raids, because kids are literally not safe around ICE. I have not heard one Conservatives from the "protect the children" crew have a problem with this.

How many times are we going to need to watch Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, f*ck up another investigation. This year alone it has been at least 3. Any thoughts for 2026?

It's a bold move for trump to show everyone how anti-woke he is by constantly falling asleep at important meetings in the middle of the day (and sometimes in the morning).

The party telling liberals they don't know the difference between men and women are having a profound issue with spotting the difference between a girl and a woman.

Don't let fear mongers tell you there will not be a 2026 midterm election. Do you want to know how I know there will be one...Republicans (at trump's behest) are trying to gerrymander the system in their favor.

Imagine being shocked and appalled about the immigration status of a fictional character that is 87 years old. Some conservative circles find it "woke" that he is an undocumented immigrant, but that's his story...and its not even like it was retconned in...its in the first issue of his origin story.

Trump and his team were touting the countries eager to make deals with the U.S. on trade. They changed their tune when it became clear such deals wouldn't materialize quickly.

What the MAGA crowd I think truly fails to see is that what they want to make "great again" was already exceptional. To be honest with you...what they want is a big hard step down from what America already was. That's not to say it is perfect...but we our institutions were the envy of the world.

"I think that the singular evil of our time is prejudice. It is from this evil that all other evils grow and multiply. In almost everything l've written there is a thread of this: a man's seemingly palpable need to dislike someone other than himself." ~Rod Serling, LA Times, 1967

People who think trump can win a trade war with China that he lost in his first term are the same exact people that think the Washington Generals are due to win against the Harlem Globetrotters.

Three people have died in Texas from a completely preventable disease. The last ANYONE had died in the US from measles was about a decade ago. I would easily say these death are directly caused by misinformation...and I worry its going to be a leading cause of death very soon.

People showing regrets about voting for trump, now is not the time to rub it in their faces. I implore, show empathy, even if they never did. I want to win in 2026. If we have any hope stopping this disaster, its winning the House in 2026. If someone shows regret, give them the John McClane.

I am reminded in the scene from "Saving Private Ryan" where that German soldier slowly stabs one one the Americans while tell him to "shhhhhh". Trump is the Nazi (fitting) and he is slowly stabbing the American economy while telling everyone to be quiet.

Tesla stocks opened today at 222. Just about 2 weeks ago, that is exactly what Tesla stocks were at and trump's economic advisor said "buy now as these stocks will never be lower" when he was shilling for them on air. Lets just see what happens today. These people have no idea what they are doing.
