Watching the 9/11 Memorial right now as Trump is speaking. I cannot help but feel that he is enjoying himself while recounting sad stories of lives lost & people suffering. Trump has no empathy. It's all about him getting attention. And, if he gets it by recounting sad stories, so much the better.

Polish Detroiter in Baltimore, liberal, politics junkie, recently retired history & AP gov teacher, grandma, lawyer, cat lady, LGBTQ+ ally. Go Tigers, Wolverines & Lions! Impeach & remove the Orange Felon & his entire administration of stupid goons!
As a UM fan, I’m happy the Wolverines won. But, the Western Michigan team has shown itself to be the true winners. They aren’t crying or blaming the refs who said there was one second left on the clock. In our current Trumpian times, it is amazing to witness this kind of maturity from anyone.
It used to be that a creep like Pete Hegseth would say he is running for President and you would just laugh it off. But, in our current climate, it seems that any asshole, even Hegseth, might have a chance. We are not a serious country anymore.
So, Trump is threatening Kristen Welker for telling the truth? That's horrible! But, the thing about Welker is that she's probably bending over backwards right now, trying to reach him to apologize and beg him to come back on her show. Welker is so weak and ineffective!
I’m sick of centrist Democrats crying that progressives need to stop vilifying them in order to unify the party! Did any of these people check in on the Michigan Democratic Senate Primary? Stevens & her supporters, like AIPAC, constantly, & wrongly, labeled El-Sayed as anti-Jewish.
I'm done with the Detroit Tigers. Everyone in the front office can go fuck themselves. And, I don't want to hear anyone try to mansplain to me why the Skubal trade is justified. I've been a huge baseball fan for over 60 years, and they just should have spent the money in the off-season to sign him.
Trump made specious, already disproven claims about election fraud & interference & did not offer ANY evidence in support. Yet, MAGAts will lap it all up. Why? They have no critical thinking skills. Critical thinking isn’t taught in our schools. And, the GOP is dumbing down schools even further.
How many times do you think Trump has soiled his diaper during this lie and shit-filled address?
Children of Patriot Front members shouldn’t be considered citizens — after all, “invading armies” are one of the few genuine exceptions to birthright citizenship
If Trump croaks soon & JD is President, that will actually be a bit better, as JD would then have the 2028 GOP nomination sewn up. We wouldn't have to worry that Li'l Marco will get it. Rubio would have a better chance in the general even though he's a feckless POS, as he would have the Latino vote.
If SCOTUS goes along w/Trump's birthright citizenship EO, Li'l Marco Rubio needs to be kicked out immediately! His parents were not U.S. citizens when he was born in Miami. I know Trump SAYS it wouldn't be retroactive, but I bet it would be against people Trump doesn't like. So Marco should go, too.
I'm sick of moderates saying that if Dems take over Congress, they should focus on the economy & not impeachment. 1st, can't we do both? 2nd, if we don't address the corruption & treason immediately, it will come back in 4 yrs. That was the lesson of the Biden Administration. Learn from history!
Todd Blanche says that some allegations in the Epstein files against Trump are "unfounded and false," & so they shouldn't be released? Ha! The only statements about Trump any reasonable person would consider "unfounded and false" would be those claiming Trump is a decent, honest, caring human being.
We're watching the World Cup (I know, FIFA sucks, but my husband LOVES soccer). I just have to say that Alexi Lalas is a complete ass and he was a middling player! They have him on with Thierry Henri and Zlatan Ibrahimović, 2 true stars. Lalas must be driving them crazy with his dumb "expert" takes!
Apparently, the name "Barron" is rising rapidly in popularity as a name for baby boys. That can only be because so many stupid shitheads are having babies.
The Orange Felon's argument about the UFC fight is essentially that he already put up the stage so it can't be stopped? Any argument that could be made by a 5-year-old after he is caught with his hand in the cookie jar should not be considered in our courts of law.
I hate nepotism! The Os have Ryan Ripken on their broadcast. Gee, I wonder why? What I can say about him is that he's irritating & not very bright. During today's broadcast, he made the "insightful" comment that a player can tell the difference between a new glove & a worn-out one. Real deep, buddy!
Where are Schumer and Jeffries? They should be screaming from the rafters against the slush fund and agreement to protect Trump and his family. I guess Schumer's fictional couple are okay with all this shit?
If given the chance, it’s pretty clear the current SCOTUS would decide the Dred Scott v. Sanford case (1857) the same way Taney’s Court did back then. We need to impeach & remove the 6 racist monsters on the Court, and enlarge it. It needs to reflect the needs and wants of our citizenry, not Trump.
That latest picture of Trump’s right hand looks just like RFK, Jr.’s face. Both of those shriveled up assholes need to resign or be removed from office!
If the DOJ is taking citizenship away from some naturalized citizens, why not Melania? If the criteria is that they obtained their citizenship through fraud, Melania certainly did that. But, as always, the Trumps seem to be exempt from all consequences. Still, fuck Melania and get her outa here!
Immigrants make the U.S. great (except for Melania, Marco Rubio's parents and Elon Musk)!
KKKaroline needs to go on her maternity leave and birth her unfortunate child. Can you imagine having that fascist, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic, pedophile-protecting monster as your mother?
Haven't we had enough yet of tough-talking dumbass Melania? She threatens anyone & everyone who says anything about her stupid creepy son & tries to blame Democrats for her husband's failings. But, her threats have no substance. Lock her up & throw away the key (just like she wants to do to others).
Why did all those MSNOW anchors and reporters attend the WHCD last night? They should have boycotted it. I will not watch their shows again (I’m looking at you, Stephanie Ruhle)!
I would happily sit on a toilet the Obamas used rather than one that the filthy Orange Fascist Misogynist Piece-of-Shit Trump used to dump his filthy diaper in. How dare that asshole Trump discredit the Obamas like that!
I am so ashamed to be an American and I get more ashamed every day.
Under Trump's desired rules, Marco Rubio, whose parents were not U.S. citizens when he was born here, should be sent back to Cuba. But, let's not be as awful as GOP leaders are. We'll give Rubio a 1953 Chevy and $35 in cash so that he can buy one gallon of gas in Havana. FU Li'll Marco!
Trump voted by mail in Florida? WTF when he is IN Florida at Mar-a-Lardo about 90% of the time! And, he wants to outlaw mail-in voting for everyone else? As usual, he’s a shit-stained hypocrite.
After watching the Oscars, and reflecting on how great it was for Michael B. Jordan to win the Oscar, I have one question: What was up with Timotheeee Chalamet’s hair?
