I wrote that one below. Unfortunately, we are already at 500 atrocities for the second term. To put that into perspective, @mcsweeneys.net catalogued 1,056 horrors for the entire first term. The pace at which the Trump administration commits atrocities has more than quadrupled.

Welp. My latest for @mcsweeneys.net
SEPTEMBER 2025: From bombing Venezuelan boats, to scaring families with misinformation about Tylenol, to getting stuck on an escalator at the UN, to summoning the military to tell them to lose weight and shave, it's all here--plus, (unfortunately) much more. #LestWeForgetTheHorrors

We're close to completing our list for September. Look for it on our site next week. If you need a refresher, or, you know, lean toward masochism, here are all 416 atrocities committed by the Trump administration since the reality TV star/steak salesman/convicted felon took office.
