I don’t think Trump and his people are capable of engineering “distractions,” I think the mind-numbing chaos we see every day is straightforwardly the result of giving the dumbest, cruelest, most corrupt, most selfish people of a generation near-unmitigated power

No truer words have been spoken.

Next week's cover of The New Yorker. "War-a-Lago" by Barry Blitt.

The Trump Administration can’t even impose its will on Minneapolis when the full force of the federal government was focused on it, but surely they will be able to pacify and remake Iran, a nation of 90 million people halfway around the world.

Not rude, spot on!

While I am watching his war mess get worse, that garish display of gold bric-a-brac looks tackier and tackier. It daily reminds me how we cant afford health care. But with his ’in your face attitude’ he continues to adorn himself with every personal luxury he can think of at our expense.

She would have been such a good and smart president. Because of all their lies we got a knucklehead and now we got him again doing his best to destroy this country.

Platner on trump’s WAR‼️

It breaks alot.

Iran did not pose an immediate threat to the United States. Trump has admitted this is a regime change war. He did this without congressional authorization. This is an unconstitutional action. Worse, he clearly has no plan for what comes next. It’s a Mad King war.

Welp

I watched the deranged orange one walk to the helicopter then asked about Cuba. He says they have no fuel or food, very bad we will be taking over Cuba soon. Nobody asks a single question and it is never mentioned on follow-up news. Or any news all day. What the hell! That seems a big deal to me.

Happy Friday!

ICE continues to be all around MN and WI. They have moved out to rural areas. they are not gone. We have a large Somali Community who were brought here to work at the turkey plant because local people didn't want to do the job. Hard working people have been here 20 years, now treated like crap.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has invited both teams to his office for a photo op. He felt bad for the American women's team not going to the White House.
Safer in his office than in trumps...

Not gonna watch #StateoftheUnion
Wait for the lowlights.

His blood pressure has got to be through the roof right now, so if anyone has a chance to ask him an aggressive question about the Epstein files, that really could make It happen today.

Come on, reporters. We'll build statues in your honor.

The only possible good thing from a RFK Jr term, and now you can forget that if money is involved. Orange criminal comes down on polluters side as usual. Probably got a nice bribe to tell them to carry on.

Undocumented immigrants don’t vote
Trump was not “exonerated” re: Epstein
The board of peace is a huge grift
The Melania movie was a bribe
You pay the tariffs
The boat bombings are murder
The ceasefire is not a ceasefire
Ice is not targeting criminals

And on and on

“‘I am begging my fellow politicians, my fellow Americans to realize that right now in this country we are not fighting over policy or political party,’ Pritzker said. ‘We are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindness—or one rooted in cruelty and rage.’”

This Is What Destroying the Vaccine Market Looks Like A shocking move by RFK Jr.’s team has the industry spooked—for good reason.

Early studies suggest versions of mRNA vaccines could be effective against certain kinds of cancer too. Now companies will have to wonder if the animus towards mRNA vaccine will spill over into those efforts too.

Great, just great.

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.

Expect more.

This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

I'm a baker---I make people sweet treats like these semlor buns. I just can't believe how the vile orange dictator has not only NOT lowered any grocery prices but actually made everything cost double. He's always putting the squeeze on the small person trying to make a living. We are almost Russia.

Word is home building is at a standstill in MN and WI no new starts, because all the crews are gone-arrested, deported. A Mexican crew did my roof, arrived at sunrise didn't leave until sunset and they brought music and joy to work with them. Wonderful hard working crew. I made them cinnamon rolls.

Exactly!

I wanted her gone when she drove out Al Franken.
