You will never see more righteously indignant people than who the Republicans will become about the national debt ($40 odd trillion) AFTER a Democrat wins office. Translate this into the truism that Republicans are not patriots; they are terminally, insincere hypocrites and VERY undesirable humans.

Only black in Brown University's class of 1964. That never did seem to impress anyone, but, still, here I am.
Never forget: Our liberal, loving mindset is its own reward. Whatever goes on in the minds of Trump, Trump sycophants, MAGAs, oligarchs, white supremacists, stupid people, imbeciles of all kinds, and mental cripples is its own punishment. This knowledge must and will sustain us. Don't hate. Pity.
I rephrase MTG's words to make them less insane: Instead of "He has gone insane and all of you are complicit." I rephrase as "We have gone insane and all of us are complicit." When MTG says the inmates are running the asylum, we have nowhere else to go. Lord, we deserve the government we've got!
A truth we all should assimilate: The term 'fake news' was coined a long, long time ago by Donald Trump. Trump calls ALL news fake news in order that the continuous fountain of lies that he spews will miraculously fall into the category of 'normal'. Trump has succeeded. Today, facts mean nothing.
The bottom cometh! Convicted felon President. His depravity infests everything. The fourth estate, controlled by oligarchs, sits with Trump's immorality exposed, glorifying in Trump's absence of discipline. There can never again be an adult in the room unless and until the guillotine resets us.
Jake Tapper reading Trump's Truth Social post verbatim live on air is the beginning of the end. "Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards ... " Clearly Jake feels that if Trump said it, it transcends decency. I suspect that us liberals STILL can't say 'motherfucker' in public until Trump says it.
Republicans have decided to go down with Trump. Their ultimate objective, excluding all others, is to wallow in narcissism with him. No one will experience a good outcome from this. Ultimate justice includes holding all of Trump's sycophants accountable. May take many, many years.
Saw a news article headline that said, "Trump is made to look like a fool." My only thought was that no one made Trump look like a fool. Trump IS a fool. Maybe someone could make him look like a reasonable person. Maybe someone could make him look like a decent person.
I saw headline: "Trump is a different person from the one America elected." That is unmitigated bullshit. Trump has never changed. He is a feckless, evil, self-centered liar, and always will be. What has changed is that MAGAs are gradually coming in out of the cold. Sadly, too little too late.
Journalists who describe anything happening in Iran as "success" are just more of Trump's feckless sycophants. There can be no success attributed to ANYTHING Trump does. When will this country realize that Trump is worse than cancer? Where is that leader who will return us to sanity? Love to all.
Good people are being systematically eradicated. In this country today, 'bipartisan' means nothing, because ALL Democrats and ALL Republicans are whistling in the dark as Trump destroys the world. While democracy, truth and justice are on the chopping block, we must not negotiate!
We all think Trump is focused on the wrong things. Trump isn't focused on ANYTHING except his orgasms. This demented, ignorant, selfish, traitorous ass has been normalized. We need a coarse adjustment. When it happens, all establishments perish, beginning with Republicans and Democrats.
I just got to say this: Comey is the reason Hillary didn't get elected, so his great faith in the "Justice System" is actually just his great faith in his omnipotence. The "Justice System" only works for old, rich, white males. Me, I now have great faith in the violence system and the FAAFO system.
Was Trump behind Kirk event? Shooting was too well-executed; speaks of precision and being well-thought out; not the act of a thoughtless buffoon who stares at the sun. Trump might try to order thousands of soldiers to parade or start a stupid civil war, but something spot on ... not even remotely!
Fucking horrible exactly like us winning World War Two.
It is easy to utter the words that Charlie Kirk was "a martyr for truth and freedom", but, shit, it is easy to utter ANY words. Think about it. Animals don't lie. Trump and all his human sycophants lie with every breath, always self-serving. When is this inhumane bullshit going to end?
Kirk's death makes me ask questions: Which is better, Hillary Clinton or Ivanka Trump? Al Franken or Donald Trump Junior? Dollars or decency? Science or stupidity? Start a nuclear war over the death of one MAGA, or sleep as children are slaughtered? Get real, America! We've been prostituted!
The 'dark moment' in American history came with Trump's rise and the end of human decency. Trump ended America's position as leader of the Western world and America's being the world's champion for human rights. Kirk's death is the start of a decade's march back towards economic and civil sanity.
Man, who could say this any better? Sadly, I feel that most of our politicians and voters have revealed themselves to all be, truly, "... a special kind of stupid." Problem is, where do we go from here?
If you are upset about DC‘s crime rate while voting for a felon, you are a special kind of stupid.
Will there ever again be adults in charge that give a shit about facts, truth and common sense? My guess is "No.", because the crazies and oligarchs have the power they want, and won't give it up, while we, the idiot liberals, aren't interested in giving up any skin to change that. Sad but true.
Yeah, I'm going with Bluesky and with decent, loving people. We do make mistakes, but my mantra going forward will be to do positive things and stop being so critical and judgmental. Seriously, the Godforsaken Trump regime's evil is, unto itself, sufficient. I need absolutely no other enemies.
How many followers I have on Bluesky relates to how many sycophantic imbecilic shameful obeisant followers the Trump administration has within the electorate. The nature of 'following' must change. We must begin to realize that our insecurities breed filthy rich selfish mindless dictators. Rise up!
As I read the "news" and as various pundits interpret day to day events, I am shocked at how normal, and commonplace has become our public acceptance of stupidity, corruption, blatant idiocy and simple unmitigated horseshit. I mean, Trump has on no clothes, and our society pretends he's dressed!
The high number of individuals who cast a vote for Donald Trump suggests that the center of gravity of human existence is dangerously ignorant, animalistic and devoid of compassion. The only solution to this problem is recycling consciousness (reincarnation), which takes more time than we've got.
Here is the link: youtube.com/shorts/aG1N1... I honestly believe that people already know this or never will know this. I pray that some hearts are able to change!
This was epic!

What makes an individual run for office? What influences how a voter votes? Right now only ambitious but stupid people seek power. Right now, voters want leaders who will do what they can't. Salvation is denied us unless and until the human center of gravity leans toward compassion and common sense.
No respite from the horrible dystopian dilemma we are in unless and until the hateful, racist, selfish bastards in elected political positions of power are removed and decent, normal compassionate officials are elected. THAT can't come until the electorate realizes the true role of government.
A new movement comes into existence: Uncivil civil protests. The insane corrupt government will kill and imprison. More will plug their bodies into the front lines. When the faceless masses are deprived of the American dream, the golden toilets on the mountain top will surely pay. They go too far!
350 million Americans sit in awe of the mass corruption, frozen in disbelief. As the soul of America dies, a French Revolution-type event looms. If our way of life is to continue, those willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING for riches must pay the ultimate price. Trump is cornering a million shrews.
