So many stupid people find Trump β€œrelatable.” That is the problem.

Trump wants to distract from the failing economy, ICE murders, and his corruption scandals

Netanyahu wants to distract from the Gaza genocide, West Bank settler attacks, and his own corruption scandals.

Both are using the same playbook: wage war to blot out everything else.

Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

The US Court of International Trade has issued the (obvious) decision that the Trump Administration must refund the hundreds of billions of dollars in illegal import taxes (tariffs) that the Supreme Court found to be illegal.

We now know the law; what remains is to see what Trump does.

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

He's not an evangelical. "Christian" is not synonymous with "evangelical."

Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer β€” you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.

Q: "Do you think that Donald Trump should be deposed by this Committee?"

Hillary Clinton: "Absolutely."

"Donald Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers … That is behavior that fits a pattern if one were looking for a pattern."

Once again, a single cartoon tells more truth that the entire US Congress.

Thanks to Rick McKee for making our current situation easy to understand.

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

Republicans are Trump accomplices.

They are all in this together. MAJORITY.

>>> This would all STOP if they objected. <<<

They have become the enemy. Treat them accordingly!

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now.

Too bad they fired and gutted their counterterrorism capacity

Today is a good day to take note of all those telling you how swimmingly this is going to work out so you can stop paying attention to them forever

We have illegally and under false pretenses launched a war that in no way benefits us and isn't going to ever truly end

A MISTAKE WE HAVE MADE BEFORE

So. Just politics?

The use of military force to oust a dictatorship so a sovereign people can realize self-determination is at least justifiable, if not usually practical

Trumpism is not that. It’s the use of military force to kill or abduct individual leaders & intimidate governments into becoming client states

Remember how I said, just a few hours ago, in response to critics insisting I should support the war in Iran because it will help Iranians, that in fact Donald Trump plans to pick the new leader of Iran and Iranians will have no say in it?

Me of several hours ago, meet just now:
