I think the 'King Trump defecates on America from his jet' video should be played and replayed at every opportunity, and in one Dem ad after another.
I know MAGAcore thinks it's funny, but I think most other people are still, even at this late date, shocked by its crudity. It cuts through the noise

Woodward & Bernstein must be rolling over in their graves about now. Oh, wait - they're both still alive.
Since I have defended and supported the WaPo in the months since the election and the infamous pulled endorsement, I feel obliged to say: this is very, very bad. A dear friend at a Post vet says it's the worst thing to happen to the Post in its long history, and I can't argue.

Wisdom-of-crowd question:
I am not aware of *any* instance of Trump criticizing or disagreeing with Putin.
Even when toadying to Xi Jinping or Kim Jong Un, Trump finds ways to insult them ("little rocket man") or their policies.
Is there ANY instance of his criticizing or dissing Putin?

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”
Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story.
Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver.
This is what "merit" means to them.

This is why the military's Chief of Staff was fired this weekend. (Fired by a guy whose relevant work experience was weekend anchor on Fox News). Listen to it, and then help rise to defend the America that produced this noble man.

The firing of JCS Chmn GEN CQ Brown, USAF combat pilot and combat commander, may be the most openly racist thing the new regime has done.
(Stressing "openly" because there are not even any purported grounds for removing him.)

TWO former students of mine are transgender men. When they were in my classroom, they were girls. Today, they're men. If I ran into either of them in the men's room, I would be delighted to see them, ask how they're doing, etc.!
Concerns about genitalia? Seriously?? 🤨

How many men do you know who are comfortable in their own skin and overall identity, who are the warpath about other men's orientation, identity, and so on?
As my dad—college football player, Navy officer, auxiliary police member, small-town MD—would say: Live and let live. Get a life!

I'd love an EV - still too expensive, though. If anything, the subsidies should be increased.
If you need a car, then a Kia EV is a politically palatable choice. Not just knuckling under to Trump and Musk.
