Donald Trump seems to think “habeas corpus” is a person, based on new video from today. This is getting so bad that even Jesse Watters on Fox nEws had to declare today that Trump definitely doesn’t have dementia

Trump issued a deranged call to imprison Governor JB Pritzker and meanwhile Stephen Miller unleashed the Hitler-esque phrase “plenary authority.” This is quickly getting worse.

Governors are now REGULARLY blaming dementia for Donald Trump’s erratic behavior, most recently Gov Pritzker for Trump’s troop deployments. This is not typical. This is not normal.

Hey MAGA — we’re not going to forget about the Epstein files.

Given the latest round of mysterious Jordan Peterson illness news, is it POSSIBLE that years of the carnivore diet MIGHT NOT be the best?

Air travel is melting down as grocery prices continue to climb. Can we somehow blame Joe Biden for this?

If Trump pardons Ghislaine Maxwell, will MAGA come up with some excuse, or will they crush him for the final insult to their “transparency” wet dream that it will represent?

The degree to which the Bad Bunny stuff is triggering MAGA is hilarious, and even better is the number of clowns exposing their ignorance about Puerto Ricans being American

It’s been a chaotic, lawless weekend in America — caused by Trump’s goons. Authoritarians love to generate instability to justify further crackdowns.

Trump will soon end the reign of terror unleashed by the woke mind virus. (I have no idea what this means)

What happened to those $5000 DOGE checks that everyone was going to get thanks to all the waste, fraud, and abuse that DOGE and Elon found?

Trump LOVES the shutdown not only because it gives him attention, but because it delays the Epstein files vote once again. He DOES NOT want those files published.

First the shooter was trans.

Then the bullets were trans.

Then the roommate/love interest was trans.

Now they’ve stopped talking about it.

Can someone explain Hegseth’s obsession with “no fat people” yet he seems completely unperturbed that he works for an obese President?

I’m no promoter of “wokeness,” but sometimes the people who are angry about “woke” are merely upset they can’t use the n-word with no consequences. Tragic, sad people.

How much did taxpayers just pay for generals from around the world to fly in to listen to Donald Trump’s public brain rot speech to them?

Government shutdowns are manufactured hostage rises where politicians cash checks while others suffer. It’s deliberate sabotage. We didn’t even have shutdown until Reagan triggered the first one. I have always refused to participate in the horserace-style shutdown coverage.

How soon will we hear about the new Michigan shooter that, forget about this Trump shirt, forget about his Trump sign, forget about his pro-Trump social posts, because his wife’s ex-boss’s sister’s cousin’s hairdresser once said gay people should be able to get married, this is LEFT WING VIOLENCE

Are the “bread lines” they’re talking about just people buying bread at farmer’s markets?

They tried to kill Trump three times. First was the Butler, PA shooting, then the golf course guy with a gun, and then the escalator turning off when Trump was a few inches off the ground. Terrible stuff.

I spoke to two pediatricians this week and both said that individual measles, mumps and rubella vaccines aren’t available to their clinics, or to their knowledge at all, in the United States. Trump is recommending something that is apparently not even possible.

We're lucky Trump was even able to make it up the stairs!

Fox News is really taking the escalator drama to a new level. Thank goodness no one got hurt!

Wait a second. Elon Musk's big bombshell was claiming Trump is in the Epstein files…but it turns out Musk is in the Epstein files? What a world.

Remember when Trump told us that Biden weaponized the DOJ and there was no evidence of that but now Trump specifically had his DOJ indict James Comey and MAGA is fine with it?

The number of Americans visiting Canada has surpassed the number of Canadians visiting the US in 19 years. What do you think explains this?
