Senate just UNANIMOUSLY passed Charlie Kirk Day and Hakeem Jeffries in the House indicated he would do the same (despite having not yet endorsed Mandani in NYC)

capital D Dems are the worst.


Hakeem Jeffries has never met a boot not worth licking.

If he just manages to get his tongue a bit deeper he might just be able to get the table scraps when Schumer and Pelosi consider who's next to lead us nowhere.

He said he loved Jesus. He showed he did not follow Jesus. If there is a hell, I wonder which side of the gate old Charlie fell?

Wherever he is, I hope George Floyd and MLK were at Heaven's gate to greet him or that they get to watch him burn.

Seeing reports that Kimmels suspension ends after today.

Somebody somewhere said when we fight, we win.
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

Lol Jimmy Kimmel is back already.

Mission accomplished though, I'm sure this will have a chilling effect on criticism of Trump nationwide

Those disneyplus cancellations spoke loudly.

Won't renew, too little, too late.

I may be naively optimistic but I'm wondering if this
highly visible pullback, by tRump, won't snowball
into something more significant. He's already TACO
and extremely unpopular. The emperor has no
clothes. People have to say, no, stop it, no. JMO.

What would happen if the 'files' were published
before T'giving?

He's not accomplished any of the things that people
who voted for him were promised.

The announcement of 3 rural health centers closing in VA
won't help the GOP. It seems likely that it will cost
lives.

Supreme court judges just wiping their asses with the constitution.

The framers of the constitution tried to ensure that the executive power of the president is limited you say?

Nonsense, all hail King Trumpulous.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

In Germany Kimmel being back was celebrated as a sort of victory of freedom of speech.

Not sure I agree, if anything it shows how it continues to be under siege and that spineless corporations/greed/shareholder value are a far bigger threat to our democracy than anything else.

Has Disney made a single peep yet over why they pulled Kimmel in the first place?

DonaldTrump is an absolute loser and every time someone can afford to stand up to him he loses. He's a poker player who is always, always bluffing

Comey indicted on 2 charges.

Big mistake by Trump/DoJ. The trial will be like
what would happen if I had to hit against ML pitching.

The prosecutor has no prosecutorial experience.
I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up being disbarred.

I expect Comey to ask for the speediest possible trial.
Something he has a statutory right to. This could be wrapped up quickly.
