Um... probably should have just asked people who voted for him. Because the rest of us fully expected him to tank the economy and the country and so far he is meeting and exceeding our expectations.
The adult in the room pacifying the deranged toddler. 🤦 So tired of our country being disgraced and humiliated by this clown.
My beloved was just watching CNN with that lying fearmongering piece of garbage on. I sincerely don't know anyone could vote for yet another lying oligarch's pervert. Aaaaahhhh.
Fun one to block. What a jerk.
And we made our insane pervert president. 🤦
Today's reminder that midlife crisis guy has destroyed one of our country's great newspapers.

Three times in the past two weeks, editorials at the 'Washington Post' failed to disclose that they focused on matters in which owner Jeff Bezos had a material interest.
'Washington Post' editorials omit a key disclosure: Bezos' financial ties

New Yorkers vote today if you haven’t and you get this
Yes! The country is holding its breath and looking to New York for hope. Can't believe another oligarch backed, lying pervert is even in the running. C'mon New York!
I wonder who is paying her high priced advisors for this make over. Dark money really wants her to replace Ossoff in the Senate. And sleazy, screaming trumper won't cut it.

They need to get out of our city. They are untrained thugs and a danger to our community.
I was an Amazon customer since they only sold books and loved the company. Now they are the most anti-community, anti-customer, anti-employee company out there. Truly, truly terrible. Fortunately, there are many local, good companies to fill the gap. "Everything Bezos touches dies."

Trump has normalized the “I’m just hearing about this for the first time” so much that Republicans are no longer even criticized for apparently being uninformed about everything.

If you really know nothing … that’s bad too!
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.
Oh my god. That's a real thing. 🤢
Holy crap. Is this the Onion? Sure, elect another pervert who lies and doesn't even live in the city. That will work out well. 🤦
I wish I could find the artist. Earliest date I can see this posted is Aug. 5- but no credit.
That really is very good question. Also are they going to sue him for lying to them (saying the white House wouldn't be touched) and the damage to their reputation.

Technically, this is a book of spells.
Dang it. I missed it. Your jokes are usually a highlight.

and just as a reminder, no matter the uniform:

If they're racially profiling, kidnapping, assaulting or killing people, they're a piece of shit.
The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.
All of the tech oligarchs paying for the literal demolition of our Nation's House seems a bit on the nose. When is someone going to come up with a human friendly alternative to the monsters? (And not just to let them be bought and buried.)

I sincerely didn't think there was anything BUT "batshit crazy conspiracy theory wing" left in AZGOP. Certainly don't see anything else in their supporters.
I go back occasionally to troll some member of the Reich who is lying (and to keep elmo from calling it "inactive") but even that feels dirty.
That seems to be the current business model. It must work since it has spread across industries, but it just pisses me off. I find there are very few things I can't do without. (I still have never bought an Apple product because they gave AT&T an exclusive on the iPhone when it was released🤷‍♀️.)
