 Ha! Guess what? They’re only gonna get higher, cuz of Dotard’s tariffs and tax cuts for the 1%. As far as groceries and housing costs going down? What a joke, and the morons who can afford it least are gonna be hit the hardest. Too bad, suckers…

 As The Carpenters sang, ‘It’s Only Just Begun’, cuz the wannabe/future dictators is just getting warmed up… Donald Trump  has reportedly filed a lawsuit against the Des Moines Register newspaper and its pollster, J Ann Selzer, accusing them of consumer fraud and “election interference” over a poll from before the election that showed  Kamala Harris  leading Trump in Iowa. Threatened With Jail, Cheney Condemns Trump’s ‘Assault on the Rule of Law’ Liz Cheney, the former Republican representative, said President-elect Donald J. Trump “lied about” the bipartisan House committee that investigated his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack.

  I can certainly relate to the feeling that since half the country voted for a profoundly ignorant and psychopathic demagogue who made it crystal clear that he plans (armed with a “get out of jail free” card from SCOTUS) to “burn it all down” – then we should just bolt the door, close the shades and watch the inevitable destruction of   E Pluribus Unum   on TV (this revolution   will   be televised – even if only on Fox/ Pravda ).  It’s hard not to acknowledge the brutal reality embodied in the words of H. L. Mencken when he said, “ Democracy is the system where   the people get what they want, and get it good and hard.”   Believe me, I’ve endured many periods of dark, existential angst since November 5 th .  And yes, a big part of me wants to just pull the covers over my head and spend the next four years hunkered down in survival mode – hoping that this uber-reactionary, meanspirited and vindictive Trumpist revolution overplays its hand to...

 He promised, “I’ll lower grocery prices, cut inflation and end the Russian Ukraine war in ONE day.” And people swallowed this crap, blaming worldwide inflation on old Joe and the Dems. True, the Dem ticket wasn’t that appealing and the party went WAY too far left, but the yuuuge majority of voters said their main concern was the economy. The same economy that is the envy of the world, with low unemployment, interest rates and inflation falling, oil production up and prices falling . BUT, FOXNews pounded the LIES about a failing country/economy and the uninformed sheep bought the disinformation, although individually the huge majority of people said they were doing well. Voila, President Donald f-ing Trump, wit( his laughable cabinet and promises to get revenge against his enemies, the press, media and those who held him responsible for Jan 6, stealing Top Secret document, sexual attacks, business/tax fraud and trying to steal the election with Rhe Big Lie. Unf-ing believable, but ...

  Alexander Smirnov pleads guilty to lying about Joe Biden, son Hunter accepted bribes Those stories about $5million dollar bribes that Joe and Hunter took, which FOX ran with before the election? All LIES, but nothing new here, as FOX has no problem with anything that fits their mantra. Dems BAD—Pubs GOOD!

  Time magazine gave Donald Trump something it has never done for a   Person of the Year   designee: a lengthy fact-check of claims he made in an accompanying interview. The  fact-check  accompanies a transcript of what the president-elect told the newsmagazine's journalists. Described as a “12 minute read,” it calls into question 15 separate statements that Trump made.

 

  Censorship. Funding cuts. Layoffs.   Those concerns loom over the world’s largest conference of climate scientists as they brace for whiplash at the White House when President-elect Donald Trump takes office in six weeks. Trump has recently said climate change isn’t happening, called it a hoax and joked that rising seas would create more coastal real estate — all in contradiction to the work of the 25,000 researchers attending the American Geophysical Union’s annual meeting in downtown Washington this week.

  With Kari Lake as Voice of America head, Trump now has his MAGA propaganda arm | Opinion Putting Kari Lake in charge of this American institution is like putting … well, it's like putting Kari Lake in charge of VOA. There's no hypothetical more ridiculous-sounding than that. OMG! The Voice of America becoming a MAGA platform, voiced by Kari Lake, who has no concept of reality, and won’t accept the will of the voters.

 And,  Ex-FBI Informant Admits He Made Up Story That Was Key To Biden Impeachment Inquiry Alexander Smirnov has agreed to plead guilty to federal charges related to false claims that President  Joe Biden and Hunter Biden accepted bribes, according to court filings. Who da thunk the Pubs would LIE about something SO important?

It’s unclear exactly what the colognes smell like, but we can guess. Former Rep.  Adam Kinzinger  (R-Ill.), however, has previously described Trump’s actual body odor as “like,  armpits, ketchup, makeup and a little butt , it’s probably like that, all mixed up.”

 

 

 

 

 Bullshit!  The election was decided by less than 250,000 votes, spread over three states, where they swallow the crap from FOX like it’s the truth. Not to mention the millions of Dems who didn’t vote in CA and NY cuz they knew their vote didn’t count cuz they already had the Electoral College wrapped up, AND, the Pub’s New Rules kept hundreds of thousands out of the voting booth in close districts. Yuuuge mandate, my ass…

  Flash back to Donald Trump’s first campaign for president. It should have been doomed when he mocked John McCain’s years as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam. Or when he fantasized about one of his supporters shooting Hillary Clinton. Or when, on that “Access Hollywood” tape, he was heard reveling in the genital prerogatives of fame. But no. And that wasn’t just because there were so many Americans so dissatisfied with conventional politicians and politics that Trump’s provocations seemed a necessary solvent for the status quo. It was also because his offenses were so numerous, and came along with such frequency, that no single scandal could get lasting attention. Each faded into the crowd. Trump desensitized his audience as his improprieties became their own unremarkable norm. And while he may not have plotted it that way, he definitely learned his lesson. His selections for senior jobs in his new administration attest to that education, as he just ‘keeps ‘em coming’, as in ‘An...

  During his first term in office, Trump granted 144 pardons. Those included a family member and some of his closest allies who committed crimes ranging from financial fraud to witness tampering and more, plus, seven Republican congressmen, convicted of felonies. And I’m guessing the pig is gonna pardon a BUNCH more when he takes office again, including the mob who injured over 140 police officers. Give me a break, you hypocrites….

 It’s called inflation, and it’s worldwide, (with the US leading the way back, under 3%, now) mostly cuz of COVID, where the dumbass was totally INCOMPETENT, with his LIES and bullshit, after dismantling Obama’s Pandemic Response Team, saying ‘it’ll be over by spring, then summer, then winter, and in the meantime, shoot up some bleach and take horse dewormer’, while over a million Americans died, as we led the world in mortality, cuz of Dotard’s incompetence. Now, we’re gonna get tariffs, (over 90% of actual, qualified Economists say they are TERRIBLE) which will start a trade war, and make EVERYTHING more expensive, plus his policies of cutting taxes for his billionaire buddies will shift more burden to the lower class, his base, which will also be hit harder, proportionately, than the rest of us with higher prices for the basics. Th dumbass doesn’t even know WHO actually PAYS for tariffs. It’s the American consumer, dumbshit, not the country being ‘tariffed’. It’s just too bad we...

 If you’re rich enough to afford an Army of Lawyers, who get paid hundreds of millions, donated by suckers, you can get away with ANYTHING, including: Multiple rape charges. Interfering with an election, (find me 11,000 votes, while I send fake electors and LIE about a Stolen Election). Stealing Top Secret documents, lying about it, ignoring subpoenas, and transporting truckloads of them, caught on camera. Inciting an Insurrection, which we all saw on Jan 6, after he said, ‘come for a Wild Time’, as his hoodlums injured over 140 Capitol Police and smeared feces as they tried to hang Pence, as Dotard watched on TV, loving it. And this is the criminal that the Pubs LOVE. What a bunch of HYPOCRITES! But, nothing new here….

 These same Pubs love Donald/grab em by the pussy/Stormy Daniels check/convicted rapist/over 20 women claim assault/etc/Trump. What a bunch of hypocritical morons(R). But nothing new here…

  Former Georgia election workers ask judge to hold Rudy Giuliani in contempt for repeating false claims  Giuliani was already ordered to pay $148 million for spreading falsehoods about the 2020 election workers. 

  "I'm happy where I am, man,"   he said at a press conference on Tuesday . "I've got a kickstand down. You know what a kickstand is? ... That means I'm resting. I'm good, I'm happy, I'm excited. I'm enthusiastic about where I am. I love it here, truly do

  Republican Wants To Block First Openly Trans Congresswoman From Using The Bathroom Do the jerks(R) this person, who was lawfully elected to represent her district, is gonna sexually attack them, like Trump, Gaetz and Hegseth have done?  Just a bunch of morons, who have No Problem with a felon who Incited an Insurrection, was convicted of tax fraud, assaulted dozens of women, tried to overturn an election and stole Top Secret documents. Unbelievable, like Dotard….

  Hacker stole documents from file server used in civil case connected to Matt Gaetz: Sources On Sunday, a ShareFile link containing 24 exhibits from the civil case was accessed by someone using the name "Altam Beezley." Those involved in the case believe the name is a pseudonym, and there is an ongoing investigation into the hack. The documents that were downloaded include unredacted depositions by the woman who ABC News reported testified to the House Ethics Committee that Gaetz had sex with her when she was 17 years old, according to the email. "We are aware that there was a hack in the civil case, and the protected materials have been compromised," attorney Tim Jansen told ABC News. "On behalf of our client, we do not authorize the release of documents related to my client." Gaetz did not respond to a request for comment from ABC News, BUT, I can’t wait for the lying sleazeball, a perfect fit for Dotard’s Cabinet, to comment….

AND, you may have heard   Trump promoting “recess appointments”   lately. That provision allows the president to fill important government vacancies when Congress is not in session. It’s essentially meant for emergency situations, not for an incoming president who wants to bypass checks on who he picks to run key parts of the federal government. It’s easy to see why Trump wants to do this, since  many of his Cabinet choices  thus far reside somewhere between comical and patently absurd.  Robert F. Kennedy Jr. – a conspiracy theorist, anti-vaccine polio-enthusiast and  road-kill-eating nut-bird – as head of the Department of Health and Human Services.  Noted dog-gunner Kristi Noem  for Homeland Security. Matt Gaetz, an ethically challenged forehead that became a real boy, for attorney general.  A Fox News host with big biceps and problematic tattoos  to head up the Department of Defense. OMG, I knew he was gonna be bad, but this is ridicu...

 

  In a series of now-deleted posts on the same platform, she called Trump voters the “meanest, dumbest, most bigoted” group and “fascists” following the former president’s reelection last week. Editor-in-chief of America’s oldest magazine resigns after calling Trump voters fascists Laura Helmuth is resigning as editor-in-chief of Scientific American magazine following an expletive-filled rant about Donald Trump voters. Posting on  Bluesky , an X rival, Helmuth said Thursday that she’s “decided to leave Scientific American after an exciting 4.5 years as editor in chief” without mentioning her previous comments.

 After seeing the horrific nominations he’s made? OMG, Gaetz for AG and now RFK Jr is gonna be in charge of America’s health, and Noem head of Homeland Security, and Tulsi Gabbard in charge of US Intelligence, and a FOXClown in charge of the military. Put your head between your legs and kiss the country we love, GOODBYE. Thanks again, morons(R).

FOX  responded to a brief viewer exodus after Trump’s defeat by  desperately renewing its support  for him, even knowingly lying about Dominion Voting Systems, which cost them over $780 million. Its evening lineup of  Laura Ingraham ,  Jesse Watters, Sean Hannity and Greg Gutfeld  is all in for the once and future president. MAGA stars like  Maria Bartiromo  and  Jeanine Pirro   maintained or increased their roles at Fox, while the network  devastated   its “straight news” ranks. Fox’s work shielding viewers from damaging revelations about the former president or explaining them away  played a crucial role  in Trump’s return to power. Hopefully, there’s a special place in Hell for Rupert Murdoch, the man who ruined a democratic nation, for profit, after learning that millions of people will tune in to ‘hear what they wanna hear’, instead of facts.

  Gaetz’s resignation comes just two days before that committee was going to vote on releasing a “highly damaging” report outlining its probe into him. He’ll fit right in with your motley crew of criminals and incompetents.

 The president of Mexico and head of China both said that if the US invokes tariffs against them, they would reciprocate. That’s what countries do and that’s why they’re call Trade Wars. And nobody wins. Boss Hogg doesn’t even know WHO PAYS the tariffs as a he proved MANY times during his last reign of error. Now, the asshole wants to screw up the well oiled machine that is the US economy with some half baked plan to start a Trade War based on tariffs. No serious student of history would recommend major tariffs, but Dotard says HE will, and he’ll find some dumbass like Peter Navarro to push them through. Remember this  preTrump time. It’ll be known as The Good Ol Days…

 Noem for DHS, Gabbard for Head of US Intel, a FOXNews clown for SecDef or Gaetz for AG? It’s like the US is in a toilet, Dotard’s tiny hand has just pulled the flush handle and we’re starting to spin…

 Contrary to popular opinion, not ALL Trump voters are stupid. The vast majority, because of their dependence on FOX for ‘news’, are merely uninformed and misinformed, making them naive, gullible and clueless. Mostly GULLIBLE. I hope this clears the air, somewhat…

 Boss Hogg nominated Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. What next, his son DJTJ as head of the FBI and Melania as head of the CIA, as Dotard picks loyalty over competence at every turn? This is like a bad dream/joke that just goes on and on.

 SOOO, Boss Hogg is moving it, and all the support personnel from Colorado Springs to Alabama, in a political reward for Tommy Tuberville, in a move that will hurt the military and cost the taxpayers BILLIONS. Why am I not the least bit surprised, as the asshole begins to build our military into a political circus, with a South Dakota gov in charge of DHS and a FOXNews host as SecDef?

 Just the kinda guy the Pubs can get behind. A DoD official described him as, ‘The least qualified guy for Secretary in the history of the Dept of Defense.’  Thanks, again, Captain Bonespurs, puppet master, for picking an easy puppet, for one of the most important positions in the country/world, a FOXNews commentator…. Hegseth, 44, is largely known for his eight years on Fox News, making him an unusual pick to lead a fighting force of more than two million service members. Hegseth joined the Army ROTC in college and the Army National Guard after graduating,  according to a 2022 article  in Reserve + National Guard Magazine. He deployed overseas with the National Guard and remains part of the Individual Ready Reserve, and should be an easy mark for Boss Hogg to bully into situations an experienced military commander would NEVER do. I can hardly wait…

 

“Anne Frank’s Diary”, and “Sophie’s Choice.” So is a graphic novel adaptation of “1984,” George Orwell’s seminal work on censorship and surveillance. In a statement to The Associated Press, a spokesperson for the Florida Department of Education maintained there are no books being banned in Florida and defended the state’s push to remove “sexually explicit materials” from schools. Like Sophie’s Choice, Anne Frank’s Diary and 1984. What a bunch of slimeballs(R), but, nothing new here, as George Orwell’s world gets closer every day, where Repubs rule.

 They don’t mention that he was never regular military, just National Guard, as he takes our nations highest military position, under Dotard’s thumb. Funny how they forget stuff like that in there reports to the sheep, who remain misinformed and uninformed, as always.

 Dotard has put the Totally Inexperienced So Dakota gov, Christie Noem in charge of our Homeland Security. She doesn’t have any experience in keeping the entire country safe, or anti-terrorism, cybersecurity or customs and border enforcement. But she has spent years lionizing Trump on conservative TV and is a rock star in the “Make America Great Again” movement, soooo she gets a prominent, important job in Homeland Security. Just what I expected from the laughably incompetent asshole, as he makes a joke of our course with his appointments.to highly sensitive areas. FOXNews host as Sec of Defense. RU shittin me?

Trump taps conservative media pundit Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary The television personality has been a vocal Trump supporter and defended the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Adam Smith, head of  the House Armed Services Committee, said he was caught off guard by Trump's announcement. "I confess, I did not know who Pete Hegseth was until about 20 minutes ago," Smith told reporters. "He does not seem to have much of a detailed background in [Department of Defense] policy. To the extent he’s worked on any of that stuff, it has been on veterans policy, and a commentator on FOX, not on DoD issues. So the lack of experience is concerning," Smith said. “Now I have not heard what his plans are, so we will see what his plans are,” he added. “But it was surprising and is concerning, just given that lack of experience. You know, the Pentagon, biggest bureaucracy in the world. It’s a hard thing to run, so I think it’s going to be a challenge." OMG, th...

 Not when Boss Hogg is finding jobs for his cronies…. He tapped some FOXNews host, Pete Hegseth, cuz he was ‘so loyal’,  backing the Insurrectionists and taking Trump’s side when he wanted to shoot protesters, ‘just in the legs’. His experience, other than fierce loyalty to Dotard on FOX? He had a stint on the National Guard.  Now, Gov Christie Noem, the dog killer, is gonna be in charge of Homeland Security and a FOX News cheerleader is gonna be Sec of Defense. What could possible go wrong? And you wonder why people freaked out when the asshole was elected?

 Nectar of the Gods, which is freshly squeezed apple cider and Jack Daniels. Amazing… So, now, even though I’m not hunting, it’s that time of year, and after the election there’s a legitimate reason to drink. Facing the future sober is gonna be tough, as he just appointed Christie Noem as head of the DHS.  RU shittin me? What is her experience?  Just the beginning of our national nightmare, as Dotard appointed an enemy of the environment, (as per his voting record), head of the EPA. Cider and Jack. Mmmmmm

 Many factors were involved, but there were two main reasons. First, old Joe’s ego, that kept the doddering old fart in the race WAY too long, not allowing the Dems to have a convention, where the strongest candidate could emerge. Instead, they got a weak appointee, with too little time, too little charisma and a failure to distance herself from Joe’s many mistakes. BUT, the main reason Dotard won was the rightwing media, led by FOX, (Rupert’s cash machine/propaganda outlet) where tens of millions get their ‘news’. Once someone makes the decision to tune out real, objective news, in favor of a constant stream of Dems BAD—Pubs GOOD, which mainstream Repubs have done, it’s all over for that segment of the public. Throw in the Repub takeover of organized religion, begun by Karl Rove, (and perfected by Trump’s team), plus rightwing hate radio, led by the likes of Alex Jones and you can see how a smack talking, LYING, wannabe standup comedian can seduce the uninformed, misinformed, low ...

 The LYING, morally bankrupt grifter and wannabe/future dictator won less than 51% of the vote. And let’s remember, half of the people are below average intelligence, which explains a LOT. These people get their ‘news’ from a Republican Propaganda Outlet and never saw or heard most of the bullshit that Dotard said and did. So, enough of this Landslide bullshit. The Lyin King had 49% of the American people, (those who were actually INFORMED,  vs Rupert’s pawns), vote against him.  We just needed ONE OUT OF EVERY ONE HUNDRED people to be better informed/vote the other way, and our country/world/planet wouldn’t be so TOTALLY SCREWED right now.  Landslide, my ass…

  “Late Show” host   Stephen Colbert   had a telling reaction last week. “People often say to me, ‘C’mon, part of you has got to want Trump to win because he gives you so much material to work with,’”  he said . “No. No one tells the guy who cleans the bathroom, ‘Wow, you must love it when someone has explosive diarrhea. There’s so much material for you to work with!’”

 When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king, the palace becomes a circus.

  Re: “Why are Democrats having such a difficult time beating Trump?” Nov. 3 news analysis Many interesting perspectives were presented in this article, but for nine years the one point that no organization seems to want to put into print is the effect of FOX News. Let’s finally talk about the irresponsible platform FOX has given the man first elected in 2016. So let’s talk about this misinformation and misleading. It is edited and intentional. I know many Republicans who do not even know that FOX paid $787 million for knowingly publishing lies about Dominion Voting Systems, the former president was found liable in the E. Jean Carrol case and that Donald Trump and his organization were found guilty of doctoring the books to falsify records. Many don’t even know about the pending Mar-a-Lago stolen White House documents case. Trump won the election because people do not even know the truth. Obviously, responsible news organizations haven’t figured out how to combat that. — Krista Igo...

 “ Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you," the narrator of Trump's advertisement said. The ad, which focused on men in women's sports and  Vice President Kamala Harris'  track record of ushering in sex change procedures for incarcerated people in California.

 

 

 Like MANY other states, where Trump won but a Dem won the Congressional seat or the governorship, Kari Lake(R), a woman, lost to a Dem while Dotard won the state. Kamala got beat because she wasn’t up to the task, of separating herself from Joe, taking questions head on and inspiring voters with good reasons to vote for her. NOT being Trump wasn’t enough. It all boils down to feeble old Joe, staying in WAY too long, not giving the Dems a chance to have a convention where the best candidate could fight his or her way to the nomination. Now, we’ll all pay the price….

  Trump wins 2024 election. America needs to admit it's not 'better than this.' We are a country that just elected – that just willfully chose – one of the most cruel, unscrupulous and transparently self-serving political figures in modern history to be president. Again.

  In his 2004 book   The Anatomy of Fascism , Paxton refines his five-stage model and puts forward the following definition for fascism:   Fascism may be defined as a form of  political  behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline,  humiliation , or victim-hood and by compensatory  cults  of unity, energy, and  purity , in which a mass-based party of committed  nationalist   militants , working in uneasy but effective collaboration with  traditional elites, abandons  democratic   liberties and pursues with redemptive  violence  and without  ethical  or  legal  restraints goals.

  Pelosi   told   host Lulu Garcia-Navarro on the Times' "The Interview" podcast, "Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race."  As the former speaker told it, "The anticipation was that, if the president were to step aside, that there would be an open primary." Pelosi had been a key player in pushing Biden out after his infamous debate performance. Yup, Nancy, tell it like it is. Old Joe should have stepped out WAY sooner, so there could have been a DNC to pick the best nominee, which wasn’t Kamala.
