Even a typically dry, standard health report has to have that gushing North Korea state media flavor to it.

The “wins” do feel few and far between. Even during Biden it felt like MAGA controlled the narratives.

Natural results of a far-right regime controlling all 3 branches of government, owning SCOTUS, and gobbling up legacy & social media one by one. Quite frankly it’s hard not to often feel defeated.

Nothing and no one will stop them, and they (correctly) know that.

Was never a big fan, but I miss the 90s/00s Kid Rock-Joe C days where he was just about debauchery and everyone having fun. Instead of some Church Lady codger bellyaching about people looking “different.”

I believe we'll still get to physically "vote," but with gerrymandering, voter intimidation (I assume key precincts will have camo-clad guards there for 'protection'), Dominion being sold to a right-winger... lots of tactics to will tilt things toward MAGA.

And the differences between Bondi and Garland are just so extreme. One is boorish, aggressive and cultish loyal to POTUS, on TV every day. The other was feckless, quiet and afraid to emerge from the shadows.

On Jimmy Kimmel's return show, he mentioned he and his family have received death threats over the years. Assuming he's being truthful (and I see no reason why he wouldn't be), why isn't Bondi investigating and holding a press conference about it?

Does the word "terrorist" even have meaning anymore? It's lost its entire definition. They throw it around so casually in every news clip describing anyone they 'don't like' (along with woke, socialist, etc.).

I feel so much safer with her off the streets. So, uh, have they ventured into any 'scary' neighborhoods and caught any hardened criminals and gangbangers yet, or nah?

Watching Fox and its little brother Newsmax duke it out to see who can be the most fashy is a spectacle to witness.

Either no one's explained percentages to him by now, or he knows the maths but realizes those bigly numbers sells anyway to his Fox/MAGA audience.

I still wish it was Greta Thunberg tho, the MAGA meltdowns would be measured on the Richter scale.

But she's rather Trump/MAGA-friendly and already gave him a shout-out.

Curiously I did notice a few commenters on the social medias saying to pump the brakes on celebrating her award.

It's like Super Bowl refs being entirely former players and coaches of one of the participating teams. Seems like there should be a restrictions against this (regardless R or D). But 'Murica 'freedoms', I guess.

Now he can get back to threatening to annex Canada and Greenland by using US troops currently occupying portions of America's major cities.
