It's been over 9 months since the LA fires.
We have asked for federal disaster aid for months now.
Not a dollar from Trump.
He is abandoning Americans while building ballrooms and decorating his office gold.
It’s disgusting and disqualifying.
The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.
“Just one more thing. You said the Epstein files were a Democratic hoax—cooked up by Obama, Hillary, and Biden. But here’s the part I can’t figure out: you were a confidential FBI informant on the Epstein case. So tell me, how exactly did the Democrats get you to spy on a hoax?”
This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions. https://t.co/yWDXDwD7mZ
Traffic in toronto is brutal. I’ve been driving for an hour and haven’t yet gotten out of the city. When the Ontario public sector is in office 5 days a week plus the big banks, it’s going to get 10x worse and Doug Ford is going to have to wear it.
Let’s never forget that when Air Canada was shut down, the other airlines didn’t help. They instead price gouged Air Canada’s customers. You could have gained customers for life, instead you price gouged them 4-5X the fare value. @WestJet this is despicable and short sighted.
Oh @AirCanada what have you done? My husband has missed a must have infusion appointment and I’ve missed a pre surgery meeting. Class action lawsuit coming???? Pay your staff!!! Ffs
BREAKING: The White House melts down over the new South Park episode for brutally mocking Donald Trump and his "teeny tiny" manhood, his Jeffrey Epstein scandal, and depicting him in bed with Satan in its most relentless season premiere to date.
MAGA world is already clamoring for a boycott...
"The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as ‘offense’ [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show,” White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers said to Rolling Stone.
"Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows," she went on. "This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak."
In reality, South Park is an incredibly popular show and the creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone recently struck a $1.5 billion streaming deal with Paramount. It has never been more relevant.
Before Rogers released her statement on behalf of her boss, Rolling Stone asked several Trump officials if clips from the episode had been shared within their circle and were told: "Of course."
The anti-Trump premiere is going viral on social media and for good reason. In addition to showcasing the show's trademark humor, it contains biting satire. It includes an AI-generated PSA of a naked Trump as a means of criticizing the $16 million settlement/bribe that Trump recently struck with Paramount. That deal also included "$20 million “from the new Owners, in Advertising, PSAs, or similar Programming.”
Paramount Global agreed to pay the settlement to end Trump's sham lawsuit over a "60 Minutes" interview with Kamala Harris in 2024. The suit has been widely interpreted as presidential extortion on Trump's part because Paramount is simultaneously trying to obtain permission from Trump’s Federal Communications Commission for a merger with Skydance Media. The merger is estimated to be worth $8 billion.
The episode depicts Trump suing the town of South Park for $5 billion for challenging the presence of Jesus Christ at their school — a clear reference to the encroaching efforts by Republicans to turn this nation into a Christian theocracy.
“You guys saw what happened to CBS? Yeah, well, guess who owns CBS? Paramount,” Jesus himself warns towards the end of the episode. “Do you really want to end up like Colbert?”
In another clear reference to the Paramount settlement, one scene depicts "60 Minutes" covering the chaos in South Park caused by Trump's Jesus lawsuit. The hosts slavishly praise Trump as a "great man," skewering the North Korean style devotion that Trump demands in real life.
“We know he’s probably watching,” says one of the cartoon hosts, referencing Trump's well-documented addiction to TV.
It's worth noting that Trump is animated in the same style that Saddam Hussein was in the South Park movie, with his real face horizontally bisected to serve as a mouth. The comparisons between the brutal dictator and would-be dictator are obvious.
But the humiliation doesn't end there. Trump's micro-penis is shown five times during the episode and at one point Satan discusses Trump's name appearing in the Epstein files, saying : "It’s weird that whenever it comes up, you just tell everyone to relax."
It's clear that the cultural tide has shifted hard against Trump. His presidency is an abject failure by every metric and he's been rendered a laughingstock by one of the country's most beloved shows.
Please retweet and ❤️ to thank South Park for hitting Trump so hard!
