Old fat white dude. Trying to come to terms with living in a country that is 50% willfully ignorant and hateful. Proud atheist becoming more and more anti religion (faith/belief is a slightly different conversation). Nullius in verba

He is in congestive heart failure, even the little blue pill can’t wake the dead.

Love hearing a cowardly weasel who has never spent a day in a uniform of any kind talk about killing people. You just know if he is ever in meetings in front of career military or law enforcement officers they can’t help rolling their eyes at this heaping steaming pile of bat shit.

Most right wing Christian’s seem to fill their holes with hate and Orange Jesus.

Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand continue to disappoint, being led by the nose by AIPAC. Time for both to step down when their reelections come up.

Of coarse they did not! China never abandoned sea by trade deals. They are the worst trading partner in the world. But we just can’t get enough of their slave labor goods.

And these are the numbers the BLS is willing to publish. The true numbers are likely much worse. Yet the whole administration is all over TV telling us not to believe the prices that we are actually paying, that prices are really way down.

Hmmm. Did Hunter Biden or any other member of the “Biden crime family” get no bod contracts from the military?

the “Free Speech” president has ended negotiations with Canada because they played an ad showing a real speech by a real US POTUS about tariffs.Seems like this speech needs to find lots of airtime.As much as I hate Reagan for being the first domino to get us here, if it gets under that orange skin..

PPI and CPI are both higher in ‘25 than in ‘24. More importantly, exports especially of agricultural goods are getting hammered. We are likely going to have record high trade deficits this year. By any measure this admins trade policies are an abject failure

What kind of POS fires a tear gas GRENADE directly in the face of a preacher peacefully protesting and gets off on it (look below the waist)? These are the worst of the worst.

Better yet, go to locally owned hardware stores and lumber yards.

As the govt stays shut down, people continue to be disappeared off our streets, the Whitehouse is being torn down and people are murdered by US military in intl waters I think rumors of MAGA’s demise are greatly exaggerated.

Clearly DOJ has adopted the Alina Habba motto “I’d rather be pretty than smart”. Because the newest members although objectively attractive (Kash “crazy eyes” Patel obviously excluded), are just as dumb as a bag of hammers. Lindsey Halligan is not even a member of the bar in Virginia. Huh?

FYI, the 2 upticks in mortality in 1880-90 and 1910-20 were major flu epidemics, you know the first time people willingly wore masks to make each other safer. Also the precipitous drop in the 20th century is due primarily to vaccines. And in Rob Schneider’s lifetime the rate has dropped 90%.

So explain to me how getting rid of ACA subsidies, Medicaid, school lunches, vaccinations, etc makes any of that happen?

Because there is literally no one in this country who has less fucks to give about the Whitehouse, it’s traditions, the job of the First Lady or the orange Menace himself. She got hers, she’s just waiting for him to die for her big pay out!

No money for health care or to feed kids, but “chemtrails”? We’re on it!
