Kudos to either dumb luck, or to the person or persons who rigged the escalator to force this cretin to move his fat ass. Exercise is good for you! And congrats to blonde moron Leavitt for immediately calling for someone's head. She catches on quick.

Brazil Stopped Its Trump. It’s Pathetic that We Couldn’t Stop Ours.

Brazil barred Bolsonaro from running again and is sending him to jail. Other countries have done it, too. Why is the United States a unique failure?

Absolutely correct. We have to stop funding an immoral and corrupt administration that wages war on its own citizens. Why shouldn't we pay for the stupidest decision we ever made by re-electing a criminal?
