“I was offered an untenable bargain: Don’t make trouble. Take insults from those who never faced enemy fire, who asked for assistance in private and then signed orders to erase people like me because “transgender ideology” was a threat to civilization.”

Last year, Jeff Bezos sailed on his $500 million yacht to his $55 million wedding in Venice to give his wife a $5 million ring while his real tax rate was less than 1%.

Under my 5% billionaire wealth tax, Mr. Bezos would owe $12.7 billion & still have $240 billion left over.

Remember Otto Warmbier?

He came home from North Korea with catastrophic brain damage and died six days later.

Keep that in mind as Trump brags about his “very good relationship” with Kim Jong Un.

Weak. Pathetic. Pitiful.

[P a u l ◉ @SkylineReport]

Trump says his White House project is an “integrated military complex” with a secure ballroom “vitally required by national security.”

Meanwhile, here he is dining outdoors at Bedminster.

Open air. Guests nearby. No hardened ballroom.

Presidents obviously need extraordinary security.

But that's precisely the point:

Security can follow the president without requiring a 650-seat ballroom.

If the underground facilities, communications and protective infrastructure are necessary, build the case for them.

But stop using “national security” as if it automatically proves the ballroom is necessary.

The ballroom still needs its own fucking justification.

'Trump had taken to telling his staff that Natalie (or “Nathalie,” as he would call her, using a French pronunciation) was the only one who loved him as much as his wife and kids. “All of you will go off and make money,” he would say. "She'll never leave me"'

Q: Jon Ossoff said you'd rather travel with Natalie Harp than do your job as president. Your response?

Trump: You mean Pee Wee Herman? Pee Wee Herman lookalike.

Even though she knew the mob would come for her and her job, she kept serving her country. You have to read this. Gift link.

How Trump fired the person worthy enough to brief VP Mike Pence over a bathroom rule.

TODAY, on August 17th, I celebrate 23 years clean and sober.🙏

I am filled with gratitude forgetting a second chance at life, after pulling myself out of the grips of addiction, one day at a time.

I've spoken out about it openly here on Twitter, in the spirit of wanting to help destigmatize addiction... it doesn't matter what political party you belong to, what race or religion.

Small-minded and pathetic lowlifes have tried repeatedly to attack me using lies about my own shared anecdotes, and all I can do is remind them "There, but for the grace of God go I."

Addiction can happen to anyone.
And it destroys lives and families.
If you know someone struggling with it, there is hope.

23 years ago, I admitted that I needed help, that I could NOT do it on my own, and surrendered to my higher power.

But that was only after MANY attempts to stop had failed; three years here, four years there... I was beginning to feel hopeless.

Nothing beats a failure except a try.

It has been a LONG journey, often a daily struggle, and I look forward to (hopefully) 23 more years and beyond of sobriety.

I STRONGLY believe in therapy in addition to the 12 Step programs of AA and NA, because that support system is invaluable. Not just for the addict, but Al-Anon helps the families dealing with it too.

There are MANY of you out there who have reached out and been supportive of me over the years. Know that I love and appreciate you, because this really ain't easy, even after 23 years.

One day at a time.

The Barbershop Joke.

Trump and Obama end up in the same barbershop and get a shave from two different barbers in total silence.

The barbers are too nervous to speak, worried any topic might turn into a political argument.

When the shave is finished, Trump's barber reaches for the aftershave.

Trump stops him quickly and says, "No thanks. My wife, Melania, will smell that and think I've been in a brothel."

The second barber turns to Obama and asks, "How about you, Mr. Obama?"

Obama replies, "Go right ahead, my wife Michelle doesn't know what the inside of a brothel smells like."

[The Shallow State @OurShallowState]

TRUMP SUPPORTERS: I know you're uncomfortable. Things don't add up. Prices aren't going down, but he keeps saying they are! As you learned on Google, foreign nations don't pay our tariffs - WE DO! You see every day he badly botched the war in Iran, and he VERY badly treated our soldiers on the USS Lincoln - these are our soldiers and he doesn't seem to care about them - these are our America First boys!
His response to people's unhappiness is to tell you Dems are Communists. His response to bad polling is that he's doing great! Up is down. Black is white. Our allies are adversaries and our adversaries are allies - what is up with all of this!?
He seems focused on vanity projects and crypto and his name on buildings - everything EXCEPT Americans!
And if he's not implicated in the Epstein files, why is he so petrified of them and why haven't they properly released all of them, as was agreed they would?
We get it. You're right to feel conflicted, because things DON'T add up. There's a name for the conflict you feel - it's called COGNITIVE DISSONANCE.
We'll be straight with you: He was never a builder. He was never competent. He was never conservative. He was CERTAINLY never "one of you." He is a lifelong criminal whose only skills are committing the con, grabbing the grift, fabricating the fraud, and avoiding accountability.
And "The Apprentice" --- was A REALITY TV SHOW!
Take a deep breath. Stop the defiance. Come back to the light. You know Putin started the war in Ukraine WITHOUT PROVOCATION and is a war criminal. He's bad! Doesn't it seem like half the people in Trump's orbit are billionaires ... is Trump the actual Deep State? And you know Ghislaine Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence - Blanche met with her and poof - she got moved to a much more lenient prison. That's REALLY bad! Think about how brutal that is for the survivors!
You're an American. And America is stronger with less tribal disagreement. Open your minds to the truth - however unpleasant. You know he's old and you know he's losing it. You know you don't like or trust Vance. You know America is way better without all this mid-census gerrymandering - that's cheating and should piss YOU off too.
And hey - finally - if you can please try to open your minds to the toughest truth of all, you'll know - the reason you feel uncomfortable and conflicted and cognitively dissonant, is because ...
You've been played.

BREAKING: OSSOFF STRUCK A NERVE! The White House director of communications throws a HUGE whiny tantrum over Jon Ossoff calling out Trump’s creepy relationship with young assistant Natalie Harp!
This is how you know Ossoff REALLY hit them where it hurts…

Last night at a rally, Georgia’s rockstar Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff mocked the president for refusing to do his job and instead only wanting to “build his ballroom and travel with Natalie!”

Natalie, of course, refers to Trump’s very young, blonde aide whose primary responsibility appears to be printing out things for him to look at, and who accompanies him EVERYWHERE – so much so that many people are wondering if something indecent is happening, given Trump’s long history of cheating on his wives and lusting after very young women.

This appears to have really pissed off the Trump team, as the sentient meatball known as “Steven Cheung,” the shitposting moron in charge of the White House’s school-shooter edgelord propaganda machine, immediately took to Twitter and threw a fit.

“Jon Jackoff has to be the biggest cuck loser in politics. Instead of denigrating hard-working people serving their country, Jon should look deep into his soul and ask himself why he's a miserable person who hates this country. It's because he's a radical, extremist Dumocrat!” whined Cheung on Twitter.

Well, first off, the biggest cuck loser in politics is YOU, Steven Cheung, for serving a white supremacist regime that would have thrown you and your immigrant parents in a concentration camp at the first chance they got.

But thanks for letting us know that this is a sore spot for you guys and that there is DEFINITELY something weird going on with Trump and Harp!

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

Every media story he doesn’t like is “fake news.” Every election he loses is “rigged” or “stolen.” Every court ruling that goes against him is because of a “corrupt, biased judge who had it out for him.” He’s always the victim. What a miserable, pathetic way to go through life. What a wussy he is.👇
