Congress and the supreme court gave their power away to Trump, everything that comes next falls squarely on their shoulders.

Whelp, it ain't looking terribly good for Michigan in "The Game" today, but you know what is terrible? Everything that Ohio State represents and embodies, except the volleyball teams. #CollegeFootball #CanadianSky

Would you guys like to hear a story about the 'Chairman of the National Capital Planning Commission' (meaning the dude leading Trump's campaign of destroying the White House to build a tacky ballroom)
Omg this fuckin guy was one of the biggest jagoffs in my eating club in college

So eating clubs are kinda like a bougie combination of a dining hall +a frat, & we had a club song, part of which went:

Huzzah Huzzah for [club], now raise a glass with me, Now drain them fast as one, my boys, 1-2-3!'

President-elect Trump says Will Scharf will serve as White House Staff Secretary.

Scharf ran for Attorney General in Missouri and was one of Trump’s attorneys.

The position of White House Staff Secretary is important and holds a great deal of power.

We should all be sick to our stomachs at the utter senselessness of these West Virginia National Guard troops being shot

There was no reason for them to be in DC. Crime has been lessening. There was little for them to do.

This would never have happened but for Trump’s performative politics

Sarah Beckstrom’s grieving father told The NY Times that his daughter won’t recover. She won’t survive.

She was one of the National Guard soldiers that was shot. Her dad said that she has a mortal wound.

Sure it’s interesting to think about Trump knowing that so many people around him know he’s a “total piece of sh*t”… altho a malignant narcissist like him likely loves that people who hate him still suck up to him.

But what kinds of pieces of sh*t knowingly help a piece of sh*t destroy the country?

Now that MTG is feeling all soft, and free, and easy, it might be a good time to ask her why before even being sworn-in she was one of the 10 members of the House who met with Trump in December 2020 to discuss “Stop the Steal” plans, and the details of the convo….

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally.

He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough.

Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

He was revered.
