I'm glad the guy who threw the sandwich at the ICE idiot was found not guilty. If guilty, he'd be toast. He wouldn't have the bread to pay the fine. Lettuce be glad; that ICE officer was an in-bread sub-human.
We're on a roll.

Conservatives are screaming that Mamdani's election means that NY has "forgotten about 9/11!"
No, New Yorkers remember 9/11 well, when Muslim firefighters, police, and volunteers worked together after that terrible attack, and mourned Muslim victims as well.

The idea that a small group of billionaires is secretly running the county is ridiculous.
They're not secret at all.

"Hi, we're the Republican party! We're led by a rapist with 34 felonies who is suffering from dementia, and if you vote for us, we promise to cut every government program that helps you and will work to hurt everyone who is not a straight, white male! So, can we count on your vote in November?"

I remember conservatives saying if we legalized gay marriage, that soon the country would be without a moral compass, with evil set loose to run things.
Turns out they were right!

Reports about Biden being old seem so quaint next to the unhinged insane paranoid tweets that dementia-riddled Trump is producing these days

I'm glad Trump placed tariffs on Heard Island and McDonald Islands, places with no humans and no economy! Those damn penguins have taken advantage of us for far too long!

Hey, all my conservative friends who said it was just about illegal immigrants: I'm anxiously awaiting your condemnation of the Trump administration deporting immigrants with green cards and visas who have obeyed every immigration requirement.
Hello? Anyone there?

I see that some Republican legislatures are trying to pass laws that would prevent doctors from giving vaccines.
Next on the agenda: Imprisoning anyone who claims that the earth revolves around sun.

The President doesn't have the power to decide spending or set tariffs. That power is specifically given to the Congress under our Constitution.
Unless Congress lets the President get away with it and doesn't do its job to hold the President back from being a dictator.

To my Canadian friends: Do not for an instant think that Trump represents the majority of the American people. He won 49% of those who voted (and a large percentage never did); he has never won a majority of votes; he has never even reached a 50% approval rating the entire time he's been President.
