‘“Woke” is the word for racist people who are more offended by Colin Kaepernick taking a knee than by Derek Chauvin kneeling on George Floyd’s neck.’ —John Fugelsang

Who knew the so-called “family values” party would become the party who values pedophiles?

In my mind, no American can truly achieve “happiness” from its “pursuit” when right-wing zealots want to control how we all live and do everything in their power to impose that control.

I just literally heard Megyn Kelly say on her show (through a clip on a podcast) “(Dr.) Fauci hurt a lot more people than Epstein did.” These people are peddling the worst kind of propaganda, and I hope they pay for it dearly in my lifetime. I consider all of them evil.

Nixon lost the presidency over Watergate — a crime, which seems minor by current standards. Today, however, a president is found to be an adjudicated rapist in civil court, and a credibly accused child predator, yet he still holds the nation’s highest office. We’ve fallen to the depths of depravity.

Hey, look at the bright side, and there is a bright side: Trump is 80 years old. He’s going to die soon and millions and millions and millions of people across the planet will celebrate when he does. Don’t let Maga try to steal your joy on that day!

Shouldn’t we be seeing a new book from Jake Tapper about Mitch McConnell’s age issues right about now?

Graham, and possibly McConnell in the same week? Yes, please! It’s definitely a start to better days ahead. …and before anyone starts telling me I’m a horrible person for saying such things, I fully believe evil people need to be eradicated from the planet for they serve no purpose, but evil.

One down, MANY to go!

Just remember: If Trump and MAGA are able to take the midterms from us through whatever nefarious means they have in mind, they will absolutely escalate their extrajudicial murders of innocent citizens and immigrants. The goal is control by fear, folks. Everybody should be voting in November.

Just remember: If Trump and MAGA are able to take the midterms from us through whatever nefarious means they have in mind, the next thing they will do is take our Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. The goal is total domination, and total control, folks. Everybody should be voting in November.

The MAGA Republicans around Trump every day likely recognize telling signs of cognitive decline in Trump. As they knowingly stay silent to preserve power, they’re putting politics over the public. That’s a betrayal of public trust. This is where we’re at right now.

Trump called active-duty troops, veterans, and our fallen heroes “suckers and losers.” Americans did nothing. Maybe he had the wrong target. The real suckers and losers are Americans who keep excusing his behavior and refuse to do anything to hold him accountable while he rampages through democracy.

Just a point of clarification: when Trump and MAGA say “America First,” they mean white, heterosexual MAGA supporters first. They don’t want Democrats, independents, progressives, LGBTQ+ people, or any black and brown Americans to have an equal voice. It’s Project 2025. This is not America.

For most of my nearly 57 years, I’ve heard some companies are “too big to fail” and must be bailed out by taxpayers. Ironically, under Trump 2.0, Republicans seem determined to destroy any good thing about the United States itself—with no bailout waiting in the wings. 

American foreign policy - 2026.

Michelle Obama just delivered one of the best speeches I’ve ever heard. She upheld her husband’s legacy, defended the dignity of all people, appealed to our better angels, & reminded us of the America that we could be. What a contrast to the depravity occupying the White House.

Michelle Obama: "No one has the right to sit in judgment of who is American enough. And that's why, folks, we simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent."

Can we stop saying MAGA is voting against its own interests? For many, Trump’s racism, cruelty, and authoritarianism aren’t deal-breakers—they’re the appeal. This isn’t confusion. They voted for exactly what they wanted and exactly who they are.

Hey MAGA senators and congressmen: you’ve watched loyal colleagues get tossed aside the moment Trump turned on them. Even Cornyn lost after Trump backed his opponent. Loyalty to Trump is never returned. If you care about the country more than one man, prove it NOW!

They started trade wars and prices exploded. Billionaire oligarchs are racing to replace workers with AI/robots. They gutted public education, rural hospitals, and healthcare access. Piece by piece, they’re stripping away security, opportunity, and stability for ordinary Americans. It’s intentional.

This week made the goal plain: gut voting protections, redraw maps to dilute Black voices, and cement minority rule through courts and gerrymandering. The South once tried secession to preserve power. It seems determined to repeat the same politics under a new banner, but this time, out in the open.

America, take note: the recent SCOTUS ruling on the Voting Rights Act sets a precedent. History shows that those who consolidate power rarely stop at one victory. Pay attention — elections have consequences, and so do courts. MAGA wants to control every aspect of our lives. Is this what you want?

The hill I’m dying on: The Marco memes are the best.

When Democrats ultimately regain control of all branches of government, I don’t want to hear ANY call to forgive and move on “for the sake of the country.” Accountability is not the enemy of healing — it is a prerequisite for it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

MAGA GOP gerrymandered TX, NC & MO maps mid-decade. SCOTUS gutted Voting Rights Act protections for voters of color. LA stops election in progress to redraw black district into white. TN erasing its only Black district. This is voter suppression dressed in a suit. Be angry and FIGHT BACK in 2026. 🗳️✊🏾

America must wake up. MAGA is seizing control—through courts, legislatures, gerrymandering, every available means. This isn’t a drill. If you’re not fighting back, you’re surrendering your voice—and control over your life. The time to act is now.

So Tennessee republicans can blatantly strip majority-Black Memphis of representation 9-0, but virginia voters VOTE to redistrict and it gets struck down? What a country. 🇺🇸

Disgusting. Racism and bigotry may just be the greatest problems facing our nation from achieving true greatness.

The Sargent at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.
