@LDS_Dems@Manhattva Satan was in top form when he convinced Christians that Republicanism is God’s political leaning.
Think of how easily it is for Republicans to immediately despise half of their neighbors based on that one sentiment. (2/3 of Democrats are Christians btw)
F**cking epic. Meet Kristen Welker. She just did what all self-respecting reporters need to do. She pushed back. And the Cunt of Mostly Crisco had an epic meltdown and walked off set. Ok, less “walked.”More “staggered.” Ah, I love the smell of burning diapers in the morning.
Something smells re Trump going to MSG for the Nicks game. Normally the stink is him, but that’s not what I mean. He knows he’s gonna get booed and cause chaos at the entrances. He’s hated in NY. So why’s he going? I smell another fake assassination attempt on the horizon.
@Andie00471 I had the exact same thought. He does this when he needs to coalesce support around him. The exact moment the GOP starts thinking for themselves.
A year ago Trump said he obliterated their nuclear program for decades. Someone questioned that as a lie. He freaked out. Called it “treasonous”. But…he was lying I guess.
Pete Hegseth:
Iran has a choice right now: either meet at the table and give up their nuclear program, as the president said 'Iran can either do it the right way, with a deal across the table, or they can deal with my guy on the left.' That happened to be me. But it's not me. It's you guys!
Abraham Lincoln got shot in the head and still managed to keep the country together. Franklin Roosevelt ran the entire Second World War from a wheelchair. Eisenhower defeated Hitler and then, just to stay busy, built 48,000 miles of motorway. Kennedy looked at the moon, said “we’ll have that,” and inside a decade they did. Reagan stared down the Soviet Union until it simply gave up and went home.
Two hundred and fifty years. Forty-six men. Men who stormed beaches, split atoms, faced down nuclear annihilation over breakfast and then filed sensible paperwork about it afterward.
And then, after all of that, the entire accumulated weight of American history, the most consequential democratic experiment the world has ever seen, produced this.
A television review.
No Mars landing. No cure for cancer. No Soviet empire dissolved before lunch. Just a man in the White House, in the year 2026, informing the internet that a CBS chat show host had no talent.
That is what 250 years of American greatness built. America should be deeply, permanently ashamed of itself.

Reporter: Are you attending your son’s wedding?
Trump: He’d like me to go. I’m going to try. I said, this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things. He’s a person I’ve known for a long time.
This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.
Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.
IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.
The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.
The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.
Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.”
Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.
The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.
This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.
Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

The fact that Thomas Massie is fighting for his political life in a Republican primary because he wants pedophiles to face justice is not a good look for the Republican party.
President Trump's $1.776 billion settlement with the IRS is one of the single most corrupt acts in American history.
They moved fast to avoid the scrutiny of the judicial process, and very likely violated the Constitution. This is an outrage.
Reporter: The DOJ has this new fund — $1.7 billion. Why should taxpayers pay for the January 6ers?
Trump: Because in my world, loyalty outranks law. They broke the rules for me, so you pay the bill for them. That’s the transaction.
@AlexHorne how about TaskMaster road trip?

If he doesn’t like a question, you’re a “stupid person.” If he can’t answer a question, you’re a “stupid person.” If you challenge him even in the slightest, you’re a “stupid person.” He is, quite simply, the biggest fucking crybaby in all of human history.
Going from someone who found hockey boring to being riveted to my seat watching the @utahmammoth playoffs games is quite the shift.
And I’m not complaining
