They always say they're leaving, but they never seem to go.
Speaking as a former Californian with continuing deep ties to the state: Go ahead and be Florida's problem, you greedy fascist fuckwaddles
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.

I like it, but the last verse should have been "twelve years in prison"
In the spirit of the season in the year 2025, the Bulwark offers you this all-star rendition of the Twelve Days of Grift-mas.

Take-aways:

1. Some of my colleagues can actually sing.

2. Not me, though.

3. We shouldn't do this more than once a year.

I've been asking myself why, among all the professions that the Trump administration has declared to be unprofessional (presumably because too full of women), architecture was included. I figured it out. Trump is big mad at his architect for telling him the new ballroom is too big.

The Day the World Changed
Today is November 22, the anniversary of something truly horrible.. There are grandparents walking the earth who weren't yet born the day that Jack Kennedy was shot. But those of us who were here for it remember quite well where we were sitting or standing when we got the news, what we were doing. I was in the living room of our apartment in Woodbury, New Jersey, listening to the radio.

A few years ago, benevolent people with 3d printers were making protective gear for hospital nurses. Today they're making whistles.

Here’s a thought Ihad. Trump wants to go to war with Venezuela to take their oil. Crazy conspiracy theory, or…?

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Instead of reading the news each morning, I'm saving time with these generic headlines:
Trump Beclowns Himself
Trump's Followers Hurt People
Natural Disaster Kills Hundreds
Three Die in School Shooting
Republican Legislators Silent
Democratic Legislators Concerned
That ought to about cover it.

By God, the Italians know how to do a strike
The general strike spanned more than 80 cities, blocking ports, highways, train stations, secondary schools, metro stations, universities, shops, hospitals, and public administration offices.

And all in such good taste!
Trump: “Some of the highest quality 24 Karat Gold used in the Oval Office and Cabinet Room of the White House. Foreign Leaders, and everyone else, “freak out” when they see the quality and beauty. Best Oval Office ever, in terms of success and look!!! President DJT”

While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

So Charlie Kirk is being used as Horst Wessel. I thought so..

So the fuhrer has declared war on the homeless.
What's his end game? Seems like a real estate mogul ought to understand that the answer to the problem is to provide the people with affordable housing. These folks aren't sleeping on the streets just to spite him.

Finished a short story. People might like it, people might hate it. I find it extremely amusing.

All this stuff seems obvious to me. ICE has ben given a huge quota to fill. Of course they're going after the soft targets. Gang members shoot back. Trump has had an embarrassing few weeks and his poll numbers are down. Of course he's going to take us to war. Blindingly clear.
