A concentration camp by any other name still stinks of fascism.

He may or may not be fully aware of what he's doing, but the point is that Trump is always more than willing to shit on Republicans in a blue state for not being able to turn the state red - it's the only thing he knows how to do. And he doesn't care about the collateral damage.

In his "mind", he can't fail - he can't make mistakes - he can't get it wrong. So if he's not getting what he wants, then somebody has to be blamed and punished.

Those slush fund checks aren't coming either - no matter what kind of fuckery Blanche pulls. Token payments for a small number of super thugs maybe - but the rest goes in Trump's pocket.

And the timing of the cuts that Republicans built into The Big Bamboozle Bill will dump the shit on red states after the midterms, and guess what - the Democrats are going to get blamed.

We are the stoopid country.

Josh Hawley is a phony fuck.

Abdul el-Sayed is running for US Senate in Michigan

It Shouldn’t Be This Hard Just To Get By

Abdul El-Sayed wasn’t supposed to be a politician. He studied to be a doctor, but realized it was our broken politics that was making people sick. Abdul has dedicated his career to building government agencies that actually work for Michiganders.

And there's your message, Dems:

"I don't need you to like me - I need you to like you."

For some people, getting paid is the only thing worth considering.

Hawk makes the accurate assessment.

Damage Done

CNN reports that by 2030, over 9 million people will have died as a result of USAID being eliminated. And most of those people will have simply been born with brown skin.

Elon Musk, and MAGA, and the GOP, and the Heritage Foundation are racist, genocidal assholes.

The Bond villain always reveals his dastardly plan, and is destroyed, not so much by his hubris (altho that's part of it), but by his self-loathing, and his subconscious need to be punished.

It's un-fucking-believable that we still have to explain this shit to people.

Why would anybody keeping going out of their way looking to carry the kind of crushing weight that hatred can be?

What is it with Republicans that makes them so interested in other people's genitals?

Mind your own business

ya fuckin' creeps

Time For A Re-Work?

I think the founders were counting on honorable people, acting in good faith, to keep this little experiment going.

And maybe that turns out to be a fatal flaw, but holding each other to even loosely defined standards of decency, and honesty, and ethical behavior worked reasonably well for a coupla hundred years - certainly not for everybody, but for a lot of us anyway.

Madison and Hamilton worried out loud that what they were putting in place could be used as a guide book for exactly the kind of shitty maneuvers we've been seeing for over 50 years.

We have a metric fuck ton of hard work to do if we're going to get this thing back on the tracks and chuggin' along again.

This is a bit of a knee-jerk reaction, but it's easy to understand, hard to dispute, and impossible for me to condemn.

10 years. We've been plagued with that jerk's shit for 10 fuckin' years.
