Raskin knows he didn’t survive cancer just to let these thugs murder democracy. He knows he’s here for a reason. And bless his efforts and the struggle of all who are with him and the many others who will resist and who will prevail.
The first organized protest is on President’s Day nationwide, at the Capitol in DC, at state capitol buildings, or your local City Hall. This is to get Musk out of our govt now.
Then there’s a general strike for 1 day on Feb 28
Then a full blown economic strike that’s to be ongoing for as long as possible;
#SHUTDOWN315 You can find it on FB, Threads, BlueSky, IG, & probably Reddit. Beginning on that day Mar 15 we are supposed to try to the best of our ability to stop buying from the big national/multinational companies & only shop at, eat at small local businesses. Also no work, no school, no travel, for as many days as your able to. Try to even stay off the internet for at least that one day.
Someone did the calculations & we need at least 11M people to participate for it to really be effective. Join us!!
One thing we can do, is call our State Attorney Generals. Ask them if they are filing criminal charges against rat fuck, Elon. I called mine yesterday, Keith Ellison of Minnesota. This guy is like a dog with a bone. I spoke to an agent, who told me AGs across the country are talking. They're putting forth a plan right now. Call yours today.
Just make sure one of our states handles the arrest and trial. It can't land in federal court! Otherwise King Fuckface will pardon him as soon as he makes bail. Actually, immediate deportation to Mars would be my preference.
He entered the country illegally with his brother, lied on far too many documents…deport his ass as a serious threat to our security if nothing else Bethie!!
YES, yes, yes!!!! I have been saying that forever--he had to have lied on his naturalization application--throw his scrawny butt the hell outta the country. No more Nazi salutes, thank you very much.
...to confinement in a small cell with a tattooed transgender person who is pumped, a gay man style influencer, a real German Marxist craft beer maker, a wanna be black panther rap singer, a homeless old bag lady, and a minister caught stealing from the till. Learn from the plebes for a day.
Wouldn’t it be awesome if our precious, fragile democracy somehow actually does prevail over all this, and we restore real law and order and have tribunals and stuff and these fucking NAZIS get what’s comin’ to ‘em, and we all get to live happily ever after? or at least, live?
Yes, absolutely 💯 he entered illegally by lying on his visa application. He should be deported. Come out & protest Musk & demand his deportation on President’s Day
Not merely okay; I think a "spontaneous kinetic disassembly" of a rocket that contained 'Smuk' would be the most preferred outcome! And the more I hear about his antics, rooting about in the country's data banks and citizen's private information, the more I hope it actually happens!
This guy is a hybrid of the most diabolical Bond villains over the years. I can honestly see this modern day Ernst Stavro Blofeld sitting around with a white, diamond-collared cat. Where is 007 when we really need him?
We should keep in mind that tRump was put into office by 23% of the American population. He won by 1.5% of people who voted and fully 36% of eligible voters stayed home - for reasons. So, we can lay all this rat fuckery at the feet of MAGAts - a small minority, because a much bigger minority was too apathetic. I think it is safe to say that you are already on one of Melon's or tRump's lists. When they get down to punishing people at our level, there will be a full-on pogrom in process.
We aren't Russia, yet. Fear based silence is what they want. We the people collectively have the power. One of my kids is fearful that militias will burn my house down. I said, don't worry, I have insurance. I'm not dancing to the Viktor Orban regime.
Agree! Thankfully I have two loyal Dem senators, but am saddled with a useless R congressman. I give him hell all the time. He was re-elected 55-45 so there are plenty of Dems in his district who oppose him. We need to make a righteous noise and keep the Rs on their toes!
Robert, oh no. I am so sorry. I guess it was asking too much to expect the Senate Democratic caucus to band together in opposing all of Dump’s awful nominees. We need to keep track of the turncoats and make them pay.
Do you live in a red state? Because to call my “representatives” would, as Carl said, only put me on a list. We’ve already been living the dystopian authoritarian nightmare, for years, that’s threatening the whole country right now.
I think you're giving them too much credit for caring to even listen to you, their constitutes. I appreciate your hesitation. However, unless you make unlawful threats, they don't care what your issue is. They'll just blow you off like they do to everyone. You trust your gut. If you don't feel safe, don't call. For me personally, I'm a fighter. I don't give two shits what people think about me, except my loved ones, of course. I don't have any tolerance for bullies. I don't get intimidated very easily. That comes from a lifetime of having malignant narcissists for parents. I'll bitch slap one for you. I do completely understand your point here.
I called Keith’s office yesterday, he’s a goodun’ I’ve known for years! Everyone should spend some time on the horn today, and every day forward, speaking to state legislators and representatives!!
Great, Lisa! I messaged my California AG (Dem Rob Bonta) yesterday with the same request. Glad to hear that AGs around the country are putting together a plan. I assume it will be only the Dem AGs - but you never know! Americans are furious and Republican AGs may feel the pressure to sign on.
Done. Thank you for suggesting this. I've also written to our representatives in Congress. If the only weapons we have in this fight are our words, then that is what I will fight with. All day, every day. I love my democracy and I will not let it be wrenched away from me. Not without a fight.
There's a number of people in Oklahoma that are pissed off at what's happening in their state. These communities are gerrymandered. Yesterday, in Washington, the phone systems were overloaded from thousands of people calling. They couldn't take any more calls. We have to persevere.
Remember what the 10 Commandments say. If any republican or official who has violated one or more of them, let it be known. T is definitely a violator.
They gave us their mandate. All 922 pages. Which I read. Step by step. Now, it's a surprise?! That makes me pause and think 🤔 how deep is our corruption? I see a broken system. All those Ivy League educations and they are still functionally illiterate. Why should we be surprised. Greed rules. I'm disgusted with all of that. However, I can't afford any more fucking recessions. No more do overs left in me.
Seemed liked it took forever but they're on board now and hopefully more will follow. This illegal bullshit can't continue and Smuk needs to be stopped immediately.
Ditto, Musk should never have been allowed to get his hands on twitter, he’s obviously conspired with foreign powers, and is a serious threat to security, democracy and the world due to his eschatological beliefs!!
The complete lack of interest in regulating / monitoring sm platforms and building up gatekeeping has been infuriating to me… is it the geriatric Congress or corporate-minded younger members who don’t want to 'go there'? Lack of appetite to open that can of worms?… disheartening :/ We should reward ppl who take the initiative - ?!?
Representative Andy Kim, said today he thinks rat fucker is going in the system and messing with the phones. The lines keep doing down. He's probably got the Dungeon and Dragon Mountain Dew virgins on it. His crew.
Exactly Marycat, Musk’s been a threat to national security since he entered the fray to purchase twitter…it’s a damn maddening fact that a rich guy with questionable allegiance to enemies of the state wasn’t recognized/questioned!!
Agree. I tried calling my Democrat Senators yesterday, could only get busy signals, so I decided to use email forms on their websites. Absolutely nothing about the current chaos was mentioned on the websites. There are a lot of very nice positive articles about current focuses. These are fine and reaffirm our values, but we also need something tougher when facing these threats. Should we always "take the high road" while these reptilian traitors slither under our feet to destroy the Constitution? If we wait too long, every action is a reaction. Time to be proactive!
"fentanyl czar" sounds like what the 19-year-old high school senior who got held back twice in middle school calls himself while dealing under the bleachers at the Homecoming dance
We enjoyed "Strange Brew" and "The Great White North" and the McKenzie Brothers so much that when geologist friends of ours traveled to Newfoundland to see the former fjords and other unique geological features we had to go with them to see fabled Newfoundland. Newfoundland is a great Province; the scenery is fabulous and Newfoundlanders are super nice!
Well, here in Minnesota, people fill their beer coolers, put lawn chairs in their driveways, and watch storms, we have a number of people who could fill their shoes. 😅
And weed. Some say that Canada legalized weed to help deal with living next to the US.
A Canadian said that living next to the US is like having your neighbor's car alarm going off constantly. An American said, "Well, at least you're not locked in the damn car."
I don’t know their methods but we have the Deadend Trio here making cookies and trading. The latest offering was fig bars. I’ve been told they are all lethal. All legal.
literally like one or two democrats...where are the rest of them. Adam Schiff? Where TF are you? At least AOC got on her Instagram account and spoke concerningly to her constituents.
I hear ya! For politicians, government is a grifters paradise. I don't remember years ago politicians instantly turning into millionaires once they were elected. Now, everyone has access to insider stock trading. Most do it. White privileged wealth is always protected first. We still operate under John D. Rockefeller laws. The Civil War didn't end. Its just rolled out in phases throughout the decades. Its always been this way. It feels like rinse and repeat. Maybe this country has just entered its adolescence stage. So, no, I'm not giving them a dime. They've got Citizens United. The cognitive backflip calling it, ‘Citizens United'.’ Really? I'm sick of all of them.
But all the crap coming DonnieFelon's way is merely a smokescreen to hide what SpaceNazi is doing right before our eyes. Truly, The Felon is more a blithering figurehead who can be thwarted whenever anyone (i.e. CBS 60 Minutes) stands up to him. But Musk and his incels now embedded in our "mainframes" is the danger.
I can't help wondering what or how much the baby "engineer" brigade is downloading...? and how many viruses or malware or spyware they are inserting...?
"You could have sent the loudmouth know-it-all drunk at the end of the bar to negotiate with Sheinbaum, and he probably would have walked away with a better deal."
.
You mean Pete Hegseth, that loudmouth know-it-all drunk at the end of the bar?
Pistol Pete isn't going to make it. Unless he has a multi-disciplinary team behind him to help him quit drinking. Sticking a cork in the bottle is not going to cut it. Relapse is inevitable. Stress is something an active alcoholic can't handle. This will be interesting. 🤔
I just couldn’t believed that that guy, who clearly has an issue with alcohol, says, out loud, that if he gets the job, he’ll quit drinking. Not, “In a show of good faith, I stopped drinking 3 weeks ago” or “I’m in rehab getting help.” Just goes to show you how clueless he is.
That wasn't my intention. I'll stick with white Christian Nationalist, predatory rapist, and Andrew Tate's brother from another mother, functionally illiterate buttplug. Oh, and raging alcoholic.
And possibly Canada, Mexico and Panama! Pete! Dude, wake up -- wait it smells like liquor in here. Shit. Pete, the military just invaded Poland, what is our mission??!!
1. Love that Orange Fuckwit thinks he’s winning when everything that Joe did before stays the same. Just hand him a participation trophy (stolen from Michael de Adder)
2. Glad the Dems finally showed up. Was thinking we needed Wanted posters to find them ( got through to one of my senators yesterday to register my outrage)
I don’t know if he can comprehend they conned him, he is possibly golfing if you could call the hacking he does golf, I think going I the rough means you don’t pick up the ball and put a tee under it, you could be a fictitious club champion.
I'm glad they finally showed up too, fighting this is too important to sit on the sidelines. Every single elected Dem needs to be out there with a bullhorn calling out this bullshit daily and gum up the works as much as possible.
I'd also like to see the Dems endlessly repeat that these "deals" are exactly as described in this post — absolute bullshit that changes nothing. I'm so sick of watching this demented asshole take victory laps over shit that either didn't happen at all or happened under Biden. We can't count on the legacy media actually educating people.
They also need to do a better job calling out WHY the Orange Fuckface is doing what he is doing in general because the media sure as shit isn't doing that either. Why blaming "DEI" for literally everything makes no goddamn sense and is an attempt to deflect blame away from their own corruption and incompetence.
In 2011, in Lubbock, Texas, Tubby"s wife ran a stop sign and hit an elderly couple. The man died from his injuries after being hospitalized for 4 months. There was never an investigation by police. She was never charged. The wife attempted to sue them. They got blocked by everyone. Then it all just disappeared. Tubby was also part of a Ponzi scheme that sent his partner to prison for 10 years. We have a broken political system.
Good work Lisa59! Things I didn’t know, he is real trouble, I think he’s just goofy but a con as well, dear leader likes that stuff but don’t even think of challenging djt. When in 7th grade played football and the school had all that shit equipment for us like leather helmets and believe me they did not do the job, if somebody stepped on your head (which happens a lot) it would almost make things worse since it made you think you were protected. You were not, I didn’t make it the next year.
In happy news today, the Proud Boys were stripped of control over their trademark. The Metropolitan African Methodist Church won a 2.8 million lawsuit against them for vandalizing their Church. If they want to sell anything, they need Church consent. All monies go to the church anyway.🤭
I initially subscribed (for free) for the content, then paid up for the comments. Y'all are my peeps, and I get much joy and encouragement from reading what everyone has to say!
The Dems awaken! It seems that our Senators are having difficulty entering the building. KICK DOWN THE FUCKING DOOR! It is your responsibility to protect the American people. Congress controls the national checkbook, not Apartheid Clyde! 😡😡😡
It is incredible to me that the Democrats sit around talking about how egregious is all of Turnip/Musks doings instead of having a back bone and DOING something. I’m not saying lie, cheat, steal like the Republicans, but, come on, stop moping about and yell about it, continuously - every damn one.
yep, agreed. they are just two busy mopping the floors and the talking about it on talk shows and podcasts exhuming very little power or desire to fight.
AUGH, PLEASE. Senator Van Hollen and a pile of other congresspantywads went to the USAID offices and were told, "Sorry, there's nobody here to talk to you" and weren't let in. So they all went home, because they're very very busy making speeches and posting to social media. This is like they're playing "Mother, May I?" - they're little kids being told, "No, no, Mommy's busy right now. Go play in your room."
"We're going to stop him!" Suuuure you are. You're doing nothing but making words. Meanwhile, Musk & his little band of hackers [because you know Musk couldn't hack his way out of his own lawn] have their hands on multiple government databases which, by now, are almost certainly in the hands of other countries, if not on the dark web.
Until there's actual action, I don't see a positive end for this country.
Keep sticking a mike in front of every fumbduck Rep and Senator make them answer some questions, as opposed to just having them spew "Woke, DEI, etc." and all those other words that are on a loop in their fucking pea-brains and get them on the record for their similarly oxygen-deprived constituents. Speaking of which Keystone Karoline - an insult to blondes everywhere. Wife's blonde and that what she says:-)
The sad yet unsurprising part of this is that the cult really BELIEVES he made deals, and our neighbors “caved”. I’d share the links w the cultists in my life but that would require reading.
Raskin knows he didn’t survive cancer just to let these thugs murder democracy. He knows he’s here for a reason. And bless his efforts and the struggle of all who are with him and the many others who will resist and who will prevail.
Let's be a part of '...all who are with him...', eh?

Someone did the calculations & we need at least 11M people to participate for it to really be effective. Join us!!
Jamie Raskin is a national treasure!
I wish I had a better gift for paying tribute.
Well said. Thank you.
Truer words Neal!!
Blocking military appointments will be the saving of the Republic. Right on Raskin!
Finally, some of these Democrats are finding their spines. Jesus, it took long enough
One thing we can do, is call our State Attorney Generals. Ask them if they are filing criminal charges against rat fuck, Elon. I called mine yesterday, Keith Ellison of Minnesota.

YES, yes, yes!!!! I have been saying that forever--he had to have lied on his naturalization application--throw his scrawny butt the hell outta the country. No more Nazi salutes, thank you very much.
...to confinement in a small cell with a tattooed transgender person who is pumped, a gay man style influencer, a real German Marxist craft beer maker, a wanna be black panther rap singer, a homeless old bag lady, and a minister caught stealing from the till. Learn from the plebes for a day.
Wouldn’t it be awesome if our precious, fragile democracy somehow actually does prevail over all this, and we restore real law and order and have tribunals and stuff and these fucking NAZIS get what’s comin’ to ‘em, and we all get to live happily ever after? or at least, live?
Yes, absolutely 💯 he entered illegally by lying on his visa application. He should be deported. Come out & protest Musk & demand his deportation on President’s Day
I say if you're going to stick him into a rocket--make it one of his and aim it at the Sun. He'll have to colonize Mars during his next life.
That's funny. Do you think if we made him King of Mars, he'd shut the fuck up?
Doubt it. I think the attention-loving narcissist in him has been awakened and we're going to have a tough time getting him to shut the fuck up.
But if he’s on Mars, we won’t have to hear him.
It might explode right after takeoff, but I guess that would be OK too.
Not merely okay; I think a "spontaneous kinetic disassembly" of a rocket that contained 'Smuk' would be the most preferred outcome! And the more I hear about his antics, rooting about in the country's data banks and citizen's private information, the more I hope it actually happens!
Bethie, with melon's rocket "unscheduled disassembly" problems, for melon's safety, should we consider shooting him out of a big old cannon?
Yeet him into the sun, I say-
Yes, and take that putrid mess of subhuman cells with him.
My preference is Pluto, planet or no planet.
😄
This guy is a hybrid of the most diabolical Bond villains over the years. I can honestly see this modern day Ernst Stavro Blofeld sitting around with a white, diamond-collared cat. Where is 007 when we really need him?
My CA attorney general is already on it. CA has been suing the Felon since day one.
So glad I live in California, for so many reasons.
In case you hadn't see it yet, the state Leg also just passed $50 million in funding for lawsuits to fight these stupid and evil fucks: https://laist.com/news/politics/california-legislature-approves-50-million-to-fight-trump-administration-in-court
I wrote to him Sunday asking what they are doing about the data breach and protecting the privacy of California residents.
Yes, Bonta is the best!
So have other states. They do coordinate with one another.
Show-off! 😎 j/k
Admiration and envy from Redneckistan.
My NM AG is in on a lawsuit also!!!
I'd love to, but I live in Iowa. All calling anyone in our state government would do is put me on a list
Call them anyway. I call Republicans all the time. They don't get to silence us. Fuck them sideways. Don't give your power away. Be fucking loud.
We should keep in mind that tRump was put into office by 23% of the American population. He won by 1.5% of people who voted and fully 36% of eligible voters stayed home - for reasons.

Damned right Lisa59 I’m not letting them scare me, bs on that!! I may get shot at a protest, but we all gotta die sometime 🤬🤬🤬
Agree! Thankfully I have two loyal Dem senators, but am saddled with a useless R congressman. I give him hell all the time. He was re-elected 55-45 so there are plenty of Dems in his district who oppose him. We need to make a righteous noise and keep the Rs on their toes!
Who is your congressman? I can donate next election to his opposition (and what district?)
I have two Dem Senators-- who vote for most of Trump's nominees.
Robert, oh no. I am so sorry. I guess it was asking too much to expect the Senate Democratic caucus to band together in opposing all of Dump’s awful nominees. We need to keep track of the turncoats and make them pay.
😤
One of them must be Fetterman?? He’s turned into a terrible disappointment
Do you live in a red state? Because to call my “representatives” would, as Carl said, only put me on a list. We’ve already been living the dystopian authoritarian nightmare, for years, that’s threatening the whole country right now.
I think you're giving them too much credit for caring to even listen to you, their constitutes. I appreciate your hesitation.

So sorry for those blue dots in red states. Oregon isn’t perfect but at least we try.
Same here (Tennessee).
Same with Indiana!
Pence is angry and complaining.
Four years too late.
I live in Iowa too. I made calls yesterday. You should too.
Call and complain. Let them know you are angry.
So because of a list you would prefer to live under a corrupt dictator who wants to destroy all freedoms? Pathetic.
That’s uncalled for. Not to mention a logical fallacy.
I'm in Florida. I don't think my senators want to hear from me. My representative is Lois Frankel. She knows what to do.
If you're afraid then just let it happen like they did in 1930's Germany, then don't come crying.
GFY.
That’s good to know Lisa!
Sweet Lisa!!
I called Keith’s office yesterday, he’s a goodun’ I’ve known for years! Everyone should spend some time on the horn today, and every day forward, speaking to state legislators and representatives!!
Thanks, Patrick. I love the guy!
I’ve been calling my federal reps every day, I guess I need to start calling my state reps also. 💯
Great, Lisa! I messaged my California AG (Dem Rob Bonta) yesterday with the same request. Glad to hear that AGs around the country are putting together a plan. I assume it will be only the Dem AGs - but you never know! Americans are furious and Republican AGs may feel the pressure to sign on.
Keith is great and still a rising star also he can (for a fact) read and write.
He's awesome. I utilize AG office when I've had disputes over medical bills, insurance companies. etc. They always come through for me.
Great to hear that. Thanks.
Done. Thank you for suggesting this. I've also written to our representatives in Congress. If the only weapons we have in this fight are our words, then that is what I will fight with. All day, every day. I love my democracy and I will not let it be wrenched away from me. Not without a fight.
That's awesome! United we stand!! Divided we fall!
I would call my state AG, but he's Embezzlin Ken Paxton.
Do it, anyway. Can't hurt.
Still call. Let him know you are pissed.
Well, some issues just have to be excised. Maybe next election?
Call anyway, tell him you’re pissed
Done! (I'm in Michigan)
👍👍👍
Sounds good. Will add my voice to such plans in my state (Illinois).
Sorry, mine is all in with Oklahoma and making everyone put the 10 Commandments in schools.
There's a number of people in Oklahoma that are pissed off at what's happening in their state. These communities are gerrymandered. Yesterday, in Washington, the phone systems were overloaded from thousands of people calling. They couldn't take any more calls. We have to persevere.
Remember what the 10 Commandments say. If any republican or official who has violated one or more of them, let it be known. T is definitely a violator.
Of all 10 Commandments.
Doesn't mean they're happy with a President Dictator Elon!
All props to AG Keith Ellison.
I still have to ask: leading up to the election Project 2025 was laid out for all to see.
It's almost as though it never occurred to the Dems we could lose and might need Plan B.
Quite frankly it never occurred to ME we could lose but I'm just a constituent.
What was Plan B.
IS there a Plan B?
I hope to Christ someone 'way smarter than me thought about this before today.
They gave us their mandate. All 922 pages. Which I read. Step by step. Now, it's a surprise?! That makes me pause and think 🤔 how deep is our corruption? I see a broken system. All those Ivy League educations and they are still functionally illiterate. Why should we be surprised. Greed rules. I'm disgusted with all of that. However, I can't afford any more fucking recessions. No more do overs left in me.
Mine too, Rob Bonta, already filed the lawsuit. I wrote to him also.
From one Minnesotan to another, thank you!
Seemed liked it took forever but they're on board now and hopefully more will follow. This illegal bullshit can't continue and Smuk needs to be stopped immediately.
Elon Musk
Lone Smuk
I've been yelling about this for a week!!!!....it's about damn time!
Ditto, Musk should never have been allowed to get his hands on twitter, he’s obviously conspired with foreign powers, and is a serious threat to security, democracy and the world due to his eschatological beliefs!!
Now they’re saying it’s actually ‘ok to violate the constitution here and there’… part of a new president’s ‘flex’… JFC
Here and there? Great, how ‘bout the government seizes their guns here, there, and now?

Isn't he a senator now for New Jersey? He took Mendez's seat.
Let's hope it isn't too late.
Never too late to grow a spine.
like one or two... we need more to fight hard... Where TF is Adam Schiff ?
Exactly Marycat, Musk’s been a threat to national security since he entered the fray to purchase twitter…it’s a damn maddening fact that a rich guy with questionable allegiance to enemies of the state wasn’t recognized/questioned!!
A day late and a dollar short, as usual.
Agree. I tried calling my Democrat Senators yesterday, could only get busy signals, so I decided to use email forms on their websites. Absolutely nothing about the current chaos was mentioned on the websites. There are a lot of very nice positive articles about current focuses. These are fine and reaffirm our values, but we also need something tougher when facing these threats. Should we always "take the high road" while these reptilian traitors slither under our feet to destroy the Constitution? If we wait too long, every action is a reaction. Time to be proactive!
The demonstration in front of the treasury that they are all locked out of shows who is out there speaking up.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/04/democrats-protest-elon-musk-treasury-washington
Here they say hundreds of protesters, when earlier I had read thousands. So, go figure.
"fentanyl czar" sounds like what the 19-year-old high school senior who got held back twice in middle school calls himself while dealing under the bleachers at the Homecoming dance
I love Jeff's pictures of the new czars. I was dying laughing. Miss those guys. 🤣🤣🤣

They were great. That's such a long time ago.
Well, here in Minnesota, people fill their beer coolers, put lawn chairs in their driveways, and watch storms, we have a number of people who could fill their shoes. 😅

Still lol!!!
They’ll blow it up real good🤣🤣🤣
Gave me my one or two chuckles I average a day these days … 😬🤭
Yes, but that also describes the Musk acolytes who've taken over the machinery of our government.

Mary Hall,Really that’s very well put I have nothing to add.
OMG--perfectamundo!!!!
Mary, 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
locked in the *trunk, I think the line was. But even if I'm remembering wrong, I'm feeling more like a kidnap victim this time around.
I like that description better!
My favorite description of Canada with relation to the US is that it is like "living in an apartment above a meth lab"
😂😂. Truth!!
Try some Canadian whiskey. Much better than the brown piss front Kentucky or Tennessee
Stick to gummies. I make my tincture with Everclear 151. They burn going down. But, they'll never have a mold or bacteria problem. 🤗🤗😉
Yikes Lisa, I’m a tincture and agave de Cortez Mezcal fan myself… it takes a bit of the imagination for a ride living in this cold state!!
Oh, yeah! 😅
I don’t know their methods but we have the Deadend Trio here making cookies and trading. The latest offering was fig bars. I’ve been told they are all lethal. All legal.
literally like one or two democrats...where are the rest of them. Adam Schiff? Where TF are you? At least AOC got on her Instagram account and spoke concerningly to her constituents.
They're already asking for money, via text messages. I'm responding with piss off. Cowards.
Same! I am livid that I’m still being asked for money multiple times a day! What in the fuck?
“Do something! Stop asking for money! Do your fucking job!!”
Is my response every time as I pepper them with a PM on one of their socials.
I hear ya! For politicians, government is a grifters paradise. I don't remember years ago politicians instantly turning into millionaires once they were elected. Now, everyone has access to insider stock trading. Most do it. White privileged wealth is always protected first. We still operate under John D. Rockefeller laws. The Civil War didn't end. Its just rolled out in phases throughout the decades. Its always been this way. It feels like rinse and repeat. Maybe this country has just entered its adolescence stage. So, no, I'm not giving them a dime. They've got Citizens United. The cognitive backflip calling it, ‘Citizens United'.’ Really? I'm sick of all of them.
Stick to gummy’s Susan, better for your health and sanity!!
You could try Canadian Rye!
But all the crap coming DonnieFelon's way is merely a smokescreen to hide what SpaceNazi is doing right before our eyes. Truly, The Felon is more a blithering figurehead who can be thwarted whenever anyone (i.e. CBS 60 Minutes) stands up to him. But Musk and his incels now embedded in our "mainframes" is the danger.
That is so obvious. The "look over there" scam strikes again.
I can't help wondering what or how much the baby "engineer" brigade is downloading...? and how many viruses or malware or spyware they are inserting...?
They have planes falling out if the sky, so I expect the Felon to throw the Transportation Secretary under the bus.
Agreed Brooks!!
"You could have sent the loudmouth know-it-all drunk at the end of the bar to negotiate with Sheinbaum, and he probably would have walked away with a better deal."
.
You mean Pete Hegseth, that loudmouth know-it-all drunk at the end of the bar?
nah, Piss-Drunk Pete is already passed out
Pistol Pete isn't going to make it. Unless he has a multi-disciplinary team behind him to help him quit drinking. Sticking a cork in the bottle is not going to cut it. Relapse is inevitable. Stress is something an active alcoholic can't handle. This will be interesting. 🤔
I'm praying he gets fragged. Of course, he will never be around a live round. Such a pity.
I just couldn’t believed that that guy, who clearly has an issue with alcohol, says, out loud, that if he gets the job, he’ll quit drinking. Not, “In a show of good faith, I stopped drinking 3 weeks ago” or “I’m in rehab getting help.” Just goes to show you how clueless he is.
And how stupid the Senate is.
Don’t besmirch Pete Maravich’s nickname please.
That wasn't my intention. I'll stick with white Christian Nationalist, predatory rapist, and Andrew Tate's brother from another mother, functionally illiterate buttplug. Oh, and raging alcoholic.
Someone needs to sketch a dick and balls on his brick forehead with a Sharpie while he's blacked out. Would make a good meme.
😂😂😂
Pete is celebrating for the next 4 years unless a stripper stabs his drunk ass.
I'll drink to that!
LOL
Isn't he getting us ready for war with Denmark over Greenland?
And possibly Canada, Mexico and Panama! Pete! Dude, wake up -- wait it smells like liquor in here. Shit. Pete, the military just invaded Poland, what is our mission??!!
Would he start with 4 Bloody Mary then get serious?
Maybe he’ll move to mocktails.
THAT is funny!
1. Love that Orange Fuckwit thinks he’s winning when everything that Joe did before stays the same. Just hand him a participation trophy (stolen from Michael de Adder)
2. Glad the Dems finally showed up. Was thinking we needed Wanted posters to find them ( got through to one of my senators yesterday to register my outrage)
I was checking the milk cartons for them.
I don’t know if he can comprehend they conned him, he is possibly golfing if you could call the hacking he does golf, I think going I the rough means you don’t pick up the ball and put a tee under it, you could be a fictitious club champion.
Maybe that’s his club’ rules. Can you imagine Tiger Woods having golfed with him? He must have had to bite his tongue throughout the 18 holes.
I know that Tiger had the score card, his job is to ask each player what they shot the player says 4 he writes 4 but that’s not legal.
Wanted posters. 😂😂😂
I'm glad they finally showed up too, fighting this is too important to sit on the sidelines. Every single elected Dem needs to be out there with a bullhorn calling out this bullshit daily and gum up the works as much as possible.
I'd also like to see the Dems endlessly repeat that these "deals" are exactly as described in this post — absolute bullshit that changes nothing. I'm so sick of watching this demented asshole take victory laps over shit that either didn't happen at all or happened under Biden. We can't count on the legacy media actually educating people.
They also need to do a better job calling out WHY the Orange Fuckface is doing what he is doing in general because the media sure as shit isn't doing that either. Why blaming "DEI" for literally everything makes no goddamn sense and is an attempt to deflect blame away from their own corruption and incompetence.
Well, we can't expect them to cut a vacation short of us...🤬
Good on you Kay-EI!!
That’s a big problem with democrats-they don’t get vocal enough about their accomplishments. So frustrating!!
The press/media is bored by quiet competence. They much prefer the stench of imbecility that exudes from The Dotard.
That's how they make money. They love chaos. It sells.
yep, media has been sold out...I think the only 4 voices of reason left are,
R Maddow, L O'Donnell, Joy Reid and Katie Phang.
It sells more adverts--it's all about the damn money.
and if they aren't vocal enough they sure as hell aren't showing enough action, either.
True dat Susan, the false bravado Trump continues while patting himself on the back is disturbing!!
I know! It drives me crazy.
He’s only winning with the maga base, the rest of us know what’s happening, but point taken.
Trump told Mexico and Canada “Imma Tariff You!”
Mexico and Canada said “Got your nose!”
No tariffs, and now Trump has TWO noses!
The Art of the Deal!!

“Terminally concussed Tommy Tubberville”🤓🏈
In 2011, in Lubbock, Texas, Tubby"s wife ran a stop sign and hit an elderly couple. The man died from his injuries after being hospitalized for 4 months. There was never an investigation by police. She was never charged. The wife attempted to sue them. They got blocked by everyone. Then it all just disappeared. Tubby was also part of a Ponzi scheme that sent his partner to prison for 10 years. We have a broken political system.
Sounds like he fits right in, Lisa! Were those his entry qualifications?
They have to perform in a circle jerk off. Whoever wins, gets the job.
I didn’t know that!! Jeeesus 🤦♀️
Good work Lisa59! Things I didn’t know, he is real trouble, I think he’s just goofy but a con as well, dear leader likes that stuff but don’t even think of challenging djt. When in 7th grade played football and the school had all that shit equipment for us like leather helmets and believe me they did not do the job, if somebody stepped on your head (which happens a lot) it would almost make things worse since it made you think you were protected. You were not, I didn’t make it the next year.
@ Lisa59: 😱😮😡😢 Yep.
Fractured well beyond repair I fear Lisa!
Damn.
Has the Statute of Limitations run out yet?
In happy news today, the Proud Boys were stripped of control over their trademark. The Metropolitan African Methodist Church won a 2.8 million lawsuit against them for vandalizing their Church. If they want to sell anything, they need Church consent. All monies go to the church anyway.🤭
What, really?? Fucking AWESOME!
I’m happy too I’m learning so much from the group today it tells me good and stupid things are happening right now!
This is the best group here.
I initially subscribed (for free) for the content, then paid up for the comments. Y'all are my peeps, and I get much joy and encouragement from reading what everyone has to say!
The Dems awaken! It seems that our Senators are having difficulty entering the building. KICK DOWN THE FUCKING DOOR! It is your responsibility to protect the American people. Congress controls the national checkbook, not Apartheid Clyde! 😡😡😡
Seems like I recall a Black woman who recently ran for President giving us that exact advice:
“Sometimes people will open the door for you and leave it open. Sometimes they won't, and then you need to KICK THAT FUCKING DOOR DOWN.”
— former VP Kamala Harris, 5/24
We might need to go full Paddy Mayne on their asses.
Wimps
Nailed it: " you don’t actually have to give Trump anything. you just have to let him announce victory on TV.”
And it took world leaders approximately two nanoseconds to figure that out.
Shiny objects are his comfort zone.
Shiny objects with his 𝕟𝕒𝕞𝕖 on them.
It is incredible to me that the Democrats sit around talking about how egregious is all of Turnip/Musks doings instead of having a back bone and DOING something. I’m not saying lie, cheat, steal like the Republicans, but, come on, stop moping about and yell about it, continuously - every damn one.
yep, agreed. they are just two busy mopping the floors and the talking about it on talk shows and podcasts exhuming very little power or desire to fight.
AUGH, PLEASE. Senator Van Hollen and a pile of other congresspantywads went to the USAID offices and were told, "Sorry, there's nobody here to talk to you" and weren't let in. So they all went home, because they're very very busy making speeches and posting to social media. This is like they're playing "Mother, May I?" - they're little kids being told, "No, no, Mommy's busy right now. Go play in your room."
"We're going to stop him!" Suuuure you are. You're doing nothing but making words. Meanwhile, Musk & his little band of hackers [because you know Musk couldn't hack his way out of his own lawn] have their hands on multiple government databases which, by now, are almost certainly in the hands of other countries, if not on the dark web.
Until there's actual action, I don't see a positive end for this country.
Keep sticking a mike in front of every fumbduck Rep and Senator make them answer some questions, as opposed to just having them spew "Woke, DEI, etc." and all those other words that are on a loop in their fucking pea-brains and get them on the record for their similarly oxygen-deprived constituents. Speaking of which Keystone Karoline - an insult to blondes everywhere. Wife's blonde and that what she says:-)
The sad yet unsurprising part of this is that the cult really BELIEVES he made deals, and our neighbors “caved”. I’d share the links w the cultists in my life but that would require reading.
The MAGAts would just claim they were fake. I know, I've tried.
