Into classic cars, Star Trek, progressive politics, and rum. Views here are my own —especially the bad and cynical ones.
That Trump has been propped up for so long while being so sick and depraved should stand as a condemnation of anyone who has ever enabled him with a vote, handshake or a passing kind word.

Everyone who didn't say Charlie Kirk was a saint should be doxxed and fired from their jobs. Here's why it's fine that Donald Trump is celebrating Rob Reiner's death.

Quarters that were meant to honor the abolition of slavery, women’s suffrage, and the civil rights movement will no longer be produced, The WSJ reports. Instead, the Treasury Department will replace those with designs honoring the Mayflower, the Revolutionary War, and the Gettysburg Address.
Quarters honoring women's suffrage, civil rights canceled by Trump

I have more respect for the Iraqi journalist who threw a shoe at George W Bush than any of the cowards in the current White House press pool.

1 of 7/ The idea that the DOD-Hegseth are now trying to claim one of two survivors of the boat strike were communicating with colleagues and thus, represented an imminent threat to the US which somehow justified a second strike is ludicrous and a pathological rationalization of murder.

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

This article heavily implies that ICE is being used in a custody dispute to help Karoline Leavitt's brother get his son and have the mother locked up in ICE detention
"A woman with a family connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts."

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

This is what Dirty Donald was plotting with pedophile protectors Pam Bondi, Kash Patel and Dan Bongino as a way to suppress the release of the Epstein files. Trump is the central figure in the most sinister pedophile scandal in American history. Watergate pales in comparison.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

If Trump has nothing to hide, he'd tell Pam Bondi to release the Epstein Files like they all promised.

Mike Johnson would have sworn in Adelita Grijalva yesterday.

Ghislaine Maxwell would be sent back to Florida prison instead of being pampered in Club Fed in Texas.

And...

He's guilty as hell.

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer
