Jeff’s profanity-laced daily eruption is the essential Old Faithful Geyser of Sanity keeping thousands of us from shaking the shoulders of random strangers we meet each day and yelling “WTF’s the matter with you and with everyone else, am I the only one who sees this madness happening right in front of us?!!”
Not only the fucking press but is WAY up there among the top purveyors of TRUTH around today. Jeff posted Brian Tyler Cohen who does a podcast with Marc Elias, they're both terrific. The Meidas Touch brothers as well. SO many other good ones have signed on with Meidas they're becoming an independent news network of truthtellers. THIS is how we resist. Jeff's voice is SO important.
Jeff...your words are golden, inspiring, and truthful. How much you say is irrelevant to the effect your words have on those of us looking for hope and renewel.
Doesn't matter, Jeff. You could go all Jack Kerouac on us with reams of butcher paper fed into a Royal typewriter and we would STILL get more coherence from you than any other source.
Per Word, it's exactly 1200 words. If you divide that by 2, you get 600. Then, since everything is divisible by 3, divide 600 by 3 and you get 200. Finally, take 200 and, because we've divided by 2 and then by 3, it's clear we should divide 200 by 60.06 (for obvious symmetrical reasons) and we get 3.33, which is then multiplied by 200 (the last page count) and we get... 666. This proves you are the devil. It's all so simple. Expect to be contacted by Jimmy Comer's office anytime now for a full investigation, perhaps including a subpoena.
I can't believe I have to explain such obvious logic to some people.
I write my ‘Rational Health’ posts in Pages (Apple’s word processing widget) and when I have fixed all the mistakes, copy and paste to Substack. Word works too. It keeps a running word count.
Wow...I tried to read it but what a mess; it was not even word salad. it was more like word meatloaf--nothing identifiable as an ingredient...just mushed up altogether.
You did one good turn, with PAGES,for me today, Stephen, now I will do one for you. if you went through Safari, and not the Substack app, immediately go into the Safari settings-Advanced and website data, and immediately delete that huge 15mb size cookie TS leaves there to spy on you. I don't know how one post could leave that much, but it does. Your Ipad will be safe for another day! I personally clean out everything constantly.
My god how anyone can believe this moron amazes me. Best economy ever is ridiculous prices are up. Wait till in 2026 when Medicaid is all of a sudden missing they will blame the Dems. You watch. I have a question what will happen to the hundreds thousands of people in convalescence homes I know so many who can’t take care of their elderly parents bedridden etc. in them??? Thrown out in the streets???
Reagan had no problem doing that by slashing mental health funding. Consider him the father of the homelessness crisis, perpetuated by the real estate industry. Poor people dying is the Republicans' Ultimate Solution.
I swear I can't get my eyes to focus on his block-style long-ass paragraphs with weird punctuation and no train of thought. I'm physically unable to read it. I sure get the vibe, though.
Here is my concern with all of this: It was entirely predictable, Trump constantly fabricates the truth to absurd degrees and if all else fails, blames Democrats.
He also strong-arms his opponents. My question: What threat does he use that is so effective? What has he done in the past or present that makes it so easy to turn these people around? They know he will come after them. Why do they bother?
I have always felt that Trump, like the Mafia vis-a-vis Roy Cohn, threatens harm to families, children etc., in addition to careers, sabotaged primaries, etc. It’s the only way he gets this kind of immediate compliance.
And is there anything far-fetched about this? I don’t think so. He is amoral, as are the people surrounding him. He is capable of anything, and everyone needs to see and accept this.
Every violent right-wing psycho out there is ready to do Trump's killing for him. Their heads belong on a pike in the public square, if they want fame and recognition so badly.
True, but many, even those who are firmly anti-Trump, still do not believe that he would go so far as to threaten injury or death, especially to someone’s family. Yet, it takes only one phone call to turn someone around 180 degrees. When I started saying this during Trump 1, it was called a far left crazy liberal fantasy. I am constantly amazed at how incredulous Sarah Longwell sounds on The Bulwark, when George Conway tries to spell these things out to her and broadly hint that we are on the knife’s edge of major violence and revolution.
We live in a dreamworld democracy. It is not real. Upon waking, people will see that our government, formed almost 250 years ago, is crumbling. In its place sits a narcissistic, immature, non-empathetic dictator, who directs how every American lives the only life he or she will ever have.
Trumpty-Dumpty is referring to all his cult members who believe his decades-long Epstein fable as "former supporters" and basically tells them to kick rocks?
And that's why he's directed his bio-robots in Congress to vote no on releasing the files? The files that don't exist and files that show it was all the Democrats' doing, that he was going to release on Day 1 and never has?
Remember when they wasted that perfectly good heart on Dick Cheney? I was shocked at how quickly he came up to first place. Let’s no longer be shocked at anything.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is far and away the most likely diagnosis. I would assume he’s wearing compression socks to try to hide it. Even with that there appears to be a significant amount of fluid (edema) in his legs and feet. This would correlate with level 3 CHF, 4 being the worst. Up to 60% of CHF patients also have atrial fibrillation (AF) and take blood thinners. Bet that’s a bruise he’s trying to hide on his hand
I'm going go with your theory and adding to it. I think besides the CHF he may have right sided heart failure due to the right ankle is more swollen than the left. He may even have pulmonary hypertension which also affects the right side of the heart. Some of this could be attributed to untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea which can lead to atrial fibrillation and blood clots. He had the first version of COVID which attacked the vascular system leaving many patients suffering from blood clots. Personally I think he's an obese slug that treated his body as a garbage dump instead of a temple. Yep, it's a bruise with a bad make-up job.
The edema in CHF is from less venous blood returning to the heart. The veins carrying the blood returning from the legs coalesce into the vena cava and return to the right side of the heart through the same vein. So same ultimate backflow pressure in both legs. The right leg does look more swollen. I would LOVE to lay eyes on his Echo Cardiogram ( heart size and blood flow ultrasound)
Blood thinners sure do make you bruise easily. My mom’s hands and arms are covered in dark purple bruises due to blood thinners. All of that heavy unmatched makeup tells a story.
Mal-NARS may thrive outwardly because outwardly is the only thing they believe in. But true thriving is an inward thing. And he’s a failure at that. He’s aware of it too, but he believes his trappings camouflage all that emptiness to a world he believes is as shallow as he is. He thinks woke people are just faking it. Pretending.
Or could be signs of Lyme disease. Which can be accompanied by swollen joints and tissues. Not to mention headaches and fatigue. Which get worse if left untreated. Maybe from spending so much time on his great golf course?
I see that two Democrats didn’t vote. Dafuq? That would have made it 212-211 to release the files. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory once a-fking-gain (insert primal scream here).
Please. It serves the Dems for this to continue to sizzle. Maybe they are beginning to play two-dimensional chess, finally. This shit is not running in straight lines and the MAGA lunatics can imagine things wilder and more lurid than anything in an FBI file.
Why in the world would Carnegie Mellon invite him? So the ignoramus in chief can fall asleep, pass gas, and recant his tired old my-uncle-who-taught-at-MIT story?
Knowing the caliber of CMU’s sports teams over the years, I doubt that there are any. When I was there many moons ago, the football team was scheduled to play everyone else’s Homecoming because we were guaranteed to lose. Which we did, faithfully.
Trump's relatives include Professor John Trump, (MIT,) his sister, Maryanne Trump Barry the federal judge, (deceased,) and his niece, Mary Trump, the PhD. in clinical psychology.
WTF happened to him? How did his genes select for stupidity being surrounded by smart folks?
None are siblings. It all starts with old Fred. He pretty much murdered his older son, and turned his younger one into a feral, emotional cripple. Raw intelligence can be over-rated.
Trump seems to really hate smart people, so maybe I’m safe from him. (Besides the fact he’ll never know who I am, few people do, and I love it that way.)
His father, Frederick Christ Trump Sr. (yes, that was his middle name!) was a snake who inherited the pimp-Nazi genes in the family and passed them on to his worst son, who ended up being his Golden Boy.
None of them can do it the way the parasite does it. They can’t lure in a gigantic following nor flim flam so incredibly effectively, nor sell snake oil to the masses.
As long as Bondi is running the now very broken DOJ, the diseased madman will get away with all of the blatantly illegal shit he wants. The DOJ is no more. It's basically a very corrupt and dangerous law firm designed to protect that rotten to the core imbecile and those who support him. Whether you're a doctor in Utah injecting saline instead of vaccine in kids arms or an LA sheriff pepper spraying and using excessive force on a woman outside of a supermarket for basically doing nothing, Bondi will overturn the convictions. Thanks GOP Congress for nothing.
What is SCOTUS going to do when Trump loses most of his base? It’s going to get worse. What if Trump‘s opposition starts getting even more furious while at the same time our own numbers become more visible and overwhelming? Who is next to replace Trump? They are trying to shove their foot in the door in order to examine voting machines in every state because they know Trump can’t win. All the tampering in the world may not be potent enough to steal the election in favor of him. The ptb may want Vance to step in, but I think they realize that would be a mistake. I fear the tech bros for the damage they could cause with regard to voting hardware. I fear Trump will initiate an enormous false flag event on our turf in an attempt to unite all the people he divided.
I believe the tech bros with the help of Musk already did their damage in the 2024 election. There's no way in hell Dump won all of the swing states. Also, it's been stated that many votes disappeared especially those cast by people of color. An election computer expert said that a black college student who's male had an eight times greater chance of his vote not being counted. If only this was a priority but with this corrupt administration, it never will be.
Rick, there are several punched holes in both sides of the ballot envelopes. If you shake them certain information will show through those holes. It can easily be determined whether the voter is a dem or a pub. Isn’t that ridiculous? I wonder who is responsible for that?
I agree with you regarding the 2024 election as well as disappearing votes. And remember the bomb threats that were reportedly instigated by Russians. If we don’t find out what really happened how will we stop it next time? Maybe we need a new way of voting that can’t be messed with.
People say we shouldn’t even hint that Trump stole the election. They say that it makes people not want to come out and vote. I don’t agree. Trump steals everything else. Why would he not steal the election if he could. And the tech bros are on his side. So is all the big money. Because elections are run by the states what does that say about the red states tampering with the vote?
" He's been dead for a long time . He was never a big factor in terms of life ."
WTF does that even mean ?
Looking back on the week , Jeff's reporting , and also noted by Lawrence O'Donnell : at the prayer breakfast , the president said that Putin bombed a nursing home in Ukraine . All the holy people laughed.
Lawrence, [who I call "Larry" from my couch], has become my favorite on MSNBC. His dry delivery of DJT bashing nightly is so much LOL. Not sure Brian Williams could beat Lawrence in this wry delivery.
Why weren't the Carnegie Mellon profs *screaming* when he went into that ridiculous story about the Unabomber? And where is Jake Tapper when we need him?
And yes, he is not well. I'm taking care of my heart so that I can outlive him if it's the last thing I do.
If you know what’s good for all of us, you BETTER!
Damn, I wanna be 89.
Actually, 80 ain’t bad, I just want to outlive this mess. Although Trump is a Boomer, and you and I are of the Silent Generation, some of our cohort is simply awful, starting with Mitch McConnell, and others.
Damn right, I hope to be able to live well but regardless, I will keep going if only for spite. Too many of us have put too much into living honestly to let these bastards get away with what they are doing.
I would bet a donut that Ivanka is in the files. DJT is 'transactional' in everything he does, and thinks. What value did he have to transact with the 'friend' pedo Epstein? The pedo had real money, connections, and power, everything the malignant narcissist craves. Ivanka could be the glue that cemented the 'friendship'. There is no bottom to DJT's depravity so this is not a line he would hesitate to cross if he stood to gain his 'precious'. Just saying...
Definitely scans, he is stupid & arrogant, but has a strong sense of self-preservation, so it makes sense he would talk about how 'dateable' his daughter is to pimp her, something he would think less likely he could be accountable for than assaulting her directly, himself. Pedos are necessarily very secretive & deception. I think that's a valid speculation on your part if I understood your implication correctly.
Stayed away, or was never invited in? My sense of her upbringing was that she was always on the fringes of the Trump Clan, not really invited in except on ceremonial occasions, and she was certainly not hesitant to vaunt her connection when she was given the opportunity (like her wedding)...
Another definition to consider: Perhaps there was technically nothing labelled "client list," making it easily deniable by Trump, etc. But there seems to have been an "address book." It is referred to in many places. It is that book which likely holds the keys.
The Epstein List/Files have riled up Chris Cuomo, he professes that "I don't believe this administration is covering up for Trump. Those pictures online with him and young girls -- it's fake. I've never seen proof that ties Trump to Epstein. I actually find Trump's position on Epstein to be pretty reasonable".
Does anyone want to speculate on who he would be trying to cover up for?
Dead yes, soon no. We will best be served if he steadily declines to become unmistakably weak and pathetic, to the point his handlers will no longer be able to hide it.
At some point, they'll have to replace him either way. If he dies, here's Vance. Too hard to handle, 25th amendment, here's Vance. Don't want to ostracize the base? Assassination, and here's Vance. We're fucked until we can find Democratic candidates that can win in Republican strongholds
I'm not saying that Vance is not a loathsome option here. However, he is not a force of nature, he's not supernatural like Trump is. He's an empty suit run by remote control from Silicon Valley. He also has the personality of a cardboard box.
He's a problem, but he's a different problem than the one we have now, one that will require a new conversation. The Dems will remain the same kind of ineffectual shit they are now.
All the more reason for us to drag this thing out with Trump slowly circling the drain, sucking the life and brains out of MAGAland.
He would be the only dead Prez going down Constitution Avenue (draped in the Russian flag) and people would be booing and throwing McDonalds wrappers at the casket!
A series of strokes is another possibility, along with genetic factors for dementia. In any case, given the moral and intellectual wreckage holding power in our government, he will finish out his term even as a babbling invalid.
fun fact: substack removed the button that tells an author how many words they've written, and now my entire life no longer makes sense to me
ok, those buttons have been restored. I'm taking full credit
Well….if this makes you feel better…everyone on this list will agree that YOU MAKE MORE SENSE THAN THE FUCKING PRESS! So-anyway-have a nice day!
Jeff’s profanity-laced daily eruption is the essential Old Faithful Geyser of Sanity keeping thousands of us from shaking the shoulders of random strangers we meet each day and yelling “WTF’s the matter with you and with everyone else, am I the only one who sees this madness happening right in front of us?!!”
I just love your comment!! Ya really do wanna know if you're the only sane one in the crowd sometimes.
Like an episode of "The Twilight Zone": you're the only sane person, but everyone else thinks you're the insane one!
Sanity is another thing that’s in the eye of the beholder
So, so very exhausting....
Not only the fucking press but is WAY up there among the top purveyors of TRUTH around today. Jeff posted Brian Tyler Cohen who does a podcast with Marc Elias, they're both terrific. The Meidas Touch brothers as well. SO many other good ones have signed on with Meidas they're becoming an independent news network of truthtellers. THIS is how we resist. Jeff's voice is SO important.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. 💗
Well played Sooz!!
Praise from the Master!
Jeff...your words are golden, inspiring, and truthful. How much you say is irrelevant to the effect your words have on those of us looking for hope and renewel.
YOUR life CLEARLY has meaning, Uncle Jeff.
I completely agree.
Indeed! Jeff - Truly, you are a big factor in terms of life! Don’t let anyone say otherwise. Thank you!
Make Counting Words as You Type Great Again
We need to bring in that vampire dude from Sesame Street now 😁
The Count! Ha ah ah ah! Vun fuck! Two fucks!
But he never gets past three...
No, that's the owl from the old Tootsie Pop commercial.

Heh....heh.....heh!
Doesn't matter, Jeff. You could go all Jack Kerouac on us with reams of butcher paper fed into a Royal typewriter and we would STILL get more coherence from you than any other source.

I can't believe I have to explain such obvious logic to some people.
Oh piffle. Write it in Word and cut and paste. That's what I do and like a chom it voiks.
I think everyone who reads you thinks the more words the better.
Jeff, clearly, THEY are trying to fuck you!
And One of these days we will figure out who THEY are.
Joe Bernie Deep State Muslim Obama Sanders Biden Kam-luh Cannibal Rapist Mexican Dog Cat Eating Harris Terrorists, obviously!
Sorry—I was thinking so hard I crapped my diaper again.
TOT-UL-LY obviously! Trump is pulling out every distraction he can think of including firing Powell.
Jeff...we all know it....you know it....I know it....ok?
And MAGAs are DMing me like crazy for the title.

Damn “upgrades” that are not! If you have Microsoft Word, do a quick copy paste into a new document and it will show you the word count.
Power through it, Jeff‼️
They are seriously fucking with you now, Jeff. They know your daily story word count is important to you, so, at least you know they are reading.
I write my ‘Rational Health’ posts in Pages (Apple’s word processing widget) and when I have fixed all the mistakes, copy and paste to Substack. Word works too. It keeps a running word count.
I had no idea what that app was as I don't use most of them on my ipad or iphone, but that great to discover. Thank you!
Your short pieces are every bit as uplifting as your long ones. Isn’t it a relief to be unbound by the number of words?
oh look what the Mad King posted while I was writing this piece. somebody's panicking, methinks
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114863203348237352
I just updated my post and appended Donny's not-tweet to the bottom
Thank you, I try not to dip my toe into that cesspool. Thanks for taking one for the team.
Trump didn't write this. Not enough caps. Directly quotes previous posts. Someone copied and pasted it for him, BUT he definitely ordered it written.
Definitely not enough crazy to be him
Stuck in a circuitous paywall for deadder, unf.
Sorry!
Well, “past supporters” has a nice ring to it. Are the hoaxes in the room with him right now?
Ohhhh man, their Daddy just spanked them real good!
No, they're in his head...
Wow...I tried to read it but what a mess; it was not even word salad. it was more like word meatloaf--nothing identifiable as an ingredient...just mushed up altogether.

Yes, Carol, he makes it easy for us to accurately read his mind.
And backward from the actual facts. As if we were "hiding" Hillary's loss with Russia. How does that--- nevermind.
CRAP! I have been blocked from TS. Can’t imagine why. I have no account there and only click when someone shares a link.
Susan, you must have done something really wonderful to get blocked.
😅😂
I hit Jeff’s link and it showed right up… I feel soiled that his app was up briefly on one of my devices. I may have to burn my iPad…
You did one good turn, with PAGES,for me today, Stephen, now I will do one for you. if you went through Safari, and not the Substack app, immediately go into the Safari settings-Advanced and website data, and immediately delete that huge 15mb size cookie TS leaves there to spy on you.

"What threat does he use?"
Really?
It's more a promise than a threat. Democrats shot to death and others set afire, candidates primaried, a riot at the Capitol, take your pick.
True, but many, even those who are firmly anti-Trump, still do not believe that he would go so far as to threaten injury or death, especially to someone’s family. Yet, it takes only one phone call to turn someone around 180 degrees. When I started saying this during Trump 1, it was called a far left crazy liberal fantasy.

Well-stated! Massive civic violence is most likely to start on the fascist side.
Trump really is a king. The King of bullshit. Honest to God, what comes out of his mouth is 100% horse manure.
So Trump says that the Democrats "stick together like glue?" I wish!!!
OMG! If THAT doesn’t nail/prove the accusations….keep it up donny!!!
His panic is delicious to see!
In a way. But the more panicked a malignant narcissist becomes the more erratic, if that's even conceivable.
Yikes, he is definitely concerned! Bring it on. Hope it causes his blood pressure goes off the charts!
I >am< reading this correctly, right (?)
Trumpty-Dumpty is referring to all his cult members who believe his decades-long Epstein fable as "former supporters" and basically tells them to kick rocks?
And that's why he's directed his bio-robots in Congress to vote no on releasing the files? The files that don't exist and files that show it was all the Democrats' doing, that he was going to release on Day 1 and never has?
Have I got this right?
I can't read his gibberish anymore. Its a lunatic in charge, I tell ya!
Its amazing how far the Prezidency has descended since this two bit grifter
took office. No class, no common sense, no humanity, no decorum, no respect for the office or for others, etc.etc.etc.
YEs swollen ankles can be a sign of heart failure but we all know he has no heart so best look for another explanation! (S )
Remember when they wasted that perfectly good heart on Dick Cheney? I was shocked at how quickly he came up to first place. Let’s no longer be shocked at anything.
Liver failure and pelvic mass or lymphadenitis are in the differential diagnosis as well.
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is far and away the most likely diagnosis. I would assume he’s wearing compression socks to try to hide it. Even with that there appears to be a significant amount of fluid (edema) in his legs and feet. This would correlate with level 3 CHF, 4 being the worst. Up to 60% of CHF patients also have atrial fibrillation (AF) and take blood thinners. Bet that’s a bruise he’s trying to hide on his hand
I'm going go with your theory and adding to it. I think besides the CHF he may have right sided heart failure due to the right ankle is more swollen than the left. He may even have pulmonary hypertension which also affects the right side of the heart. Some of this could be attributed to untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea which can lead to atrial fibrillation and blood clots. He had the first version of COVID which attacked the vascular system leaving many patients suffering from blood clots. Personally I think he's an obese slug that treated his body as a garbage dump instead of a temple. Yep, it's a bruise with a bad make-up job.
The edema in CHF is from less venous blood returning to the heart. The veins carrying the blood returning from the legs coalesce into the vena cava and return to the right side of the heart through the same vein. So same ultimate backflow pressure in both legs. The right leg does look more swollen. I would LOVE to lay eyes on his Echo Cardiogram ( heart size and blood flow ultrasound)
ahhh, but to re-phrase it, if they showed you they’d have to kill you. And we need you alive!
I have long wondered whether edema of the ankles might explain the elephant-leg trousers on tfg's custom-made suits.
Blood thinners sure do make you bruise easily. My mom’s hands and arms are covered in dark purple bruises due to blood thinners. All of that heavy unmatched makeup tells a story.
Yes! I believe you are correct.
Blood pressure issues
Is liver failure failure to live? I think that is the most obvious diagnosis.
Failure to Thrive is a real medical diagnosis... would that he would come down with it.
Mal-NARS may thrive outwardly because outwardly is the only thing they believe in. But true thriving is an inward thing. And he’s a failure at that. He’s aware of it too, but he believes his trappings camouflage all that emptiness to a world he believes is as shallow as he is. He thinks woke people are just faking it. Pretending.
Or could be signs of Lyme disease. Which can be accompanied by swollen joints and tissues. Not to mention headaches and fatigue. Which get worse if left untreated. Maybe from spending so much time on his great golf course?
Touche. ANN. Maybe his intestines ruptured and his whole body is full, not just the diapers.
Ann, if this isn’t a case of impacted bone spurs I’ve never seen one.
:-)
I think he suffered from heart failure shortly after he was born.
Water on the brain. Encephalitis?
I see that two Democrats didn’t vote. Dafuq? That would have made it 212-211 to release the files. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory once a-fking-gain (insert primal scream here).
Shit. I didn't notice that!
I did.
Please. It serves the Dems for this to continue to sizzle. Maybe they are beginning to play two-dimensional chess, finally. This shit is not running in straight lines and the MAGA lunatics can imagine things wilder and more lurid than anything in an FBI file.
Who were they?
Usually it is either someone who is out sick or someone who isn't in DC.
Should be able to get the voting list.
Maybe the two dems are in the Epstein files that Trump has in his desk at Mar-a-Lago.
Have you considered the dead democrats in the voting tally
No, I had not.
Why in the world would Carnegie Mellon invite him? So the ignoramus in chief can fall asleep, pass gas, and recant his tired old my-uncle-who-taught-at-MIT story?
More importantly, why would he come? CMU is definitely not friendly turf. My guess is that they wanted to show him up.
Are they missing any fake gold plated trophies?
Knowing the caliber of CMU’s sports teams over the years, I doubt that there are any. When I was there many moons ago, the football team was scheduled to play everyone else’s Homecoming because we were guaranteed to lose. Which we did, faithfully.
So I need some clarification here.
Trump's relatives include Professor John Trump, (MIT,) his sister, Maryanne Trump Barry the federal judge, (deceased,) and his niece, Mary Trump, the PhD. in clinical psychology.
WTF happened to him? How did his genes select for stupidity being surrounded by smart folks?
Drugs and syphilis?
So funny!!!
None are siblings. It all starts with old Fred. He pretty much murdered his older son, and turned his younger one into a feral, emotional cripple. Raw intelligence can be over-rated.
I agree.
And I’m happy being a low IQ person.
Trump seems to really hate smart people, so maybe I’m safe from him. (Besides the fact he’ll never know who I am, few people do, and I love it that way.)
His father, Frederick Christ Trump Sr. (yes, that was his middle name!) was a snake who inherited the pimp-Nazi genes in the family and passed them on to his worst son, who ended up being his Golden Boy.
Roy Cohn added the finishing touch. Et viola!
He got his genes from his father and mother.From reading Mary's book: They were nauseating!!
And she was into housing bee colonies in her hair!
Black widow spiders.
He’s a genius of evil is he not?
I don’t even think that’s possible.
I believe he surrounds himself with geniuses of evil, if there is such a genius, like Stephen Miller, Vought, Homan et al.
None of them can do it the way the parasite does it. They can’t lure in a gigantic following nor flim flam so incredibly effectively, nor sell snake oil to the masses.
Nor lie so convincingly, nor weave so befuddlingly.
Think Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger in Twins…
It annoys me to no end, all that crap he can get away with.

Fuck the Extreme Court and every single ReTHUGliCON.
As long as Bondi is running the now very broken DOJ, the diseased madman will get away with all of the blatantly illegal shit he wants. The DOJ is no more. It's basically a very corrupt and dangerous law firm designed to protect that rotten to the core imbecile and those who support him. Whether you're a doctor in Utah injecting saline instead of vaccine in kids arms or an LA sheriff pepper spraying and using excessive force on a woman outside of a supermarket for basically doing nothing, Bondi will overturn the convictions. Thanks GOP Congress for nothing.
Don't forget about SCOTUS. It's almost always 3 to 6. It's blood boiling.
Great point Anna. We can't forget his hand picked Extreme Court.
What is SCOTUS going to do when Trump loses most of his base? It’s going to get worse. What if Trump‘s opposition starts getting even more furious while at the same time our own numbers become more visible and overwhelming? Who is next to replace Trump? They are trying to shove their foot in the door in order to examine voting machines in every state because they know Trump can’t win. All the tampering in the world may not be potent enough to steal the election in favor of him. The ptb may want Vance to step in, but I think they realize that would be a mistake. I fear the tech bros for the damage they could cause with regard to voting hardware. I fear Trump will initiate an enormous false flag event on our turf in an attempt to unite all the people he divided.
Amen to that last. Horribly likely and with terrifying implications.
I believe the tech bros with the help of Musk already did their damage in the 2024 election. There's no way in hell Dump won all of the swing states. Also, it's been stated that many votes disappeared especially those cast by people of color. An election computer expert said that a black college student who's male had an eight times greater chance of his vote not being counted. If only this was a priority but with this corrupt administration, it never will be.
Rick, there are several punched holes in both sides of the ballot envelopes. If you shake them certain information will show through those holes. It can easily be determined whether the voter is a dem or a pub. Isn’t that ridiculous? I wonder who is responsible for that?
And then there’s Le Joy.
I agree with you regarding the 2024 election as well as disappearing votes. And remember the bomb threats that were reportedly instigated by Russians. If we don’t find out what really happened how will we stop it next time? Maybe we need a new way of voting that can’t be messed with.
People say we shouldn’t even hint that Trump stole the election. They say that it makes people not want to come out and vote. I don’t agree. Trump steals everything else. Why would he not steal the election if he could. And the tech bros are on his side. So is all the big money. Because elections are run by the states what does that say about the red states tampering with the vote?
" He's been dead for a long time . He was never a big factor in terms of life ."
WTF does that even mean ?
Looking back on the week , Jeff's reporting , and also noted by Lawrence O'Donnell : at the prayer breakfast , the president said that Putin bombed a nursing home in Ukraine . All the holy people laughed.
I'll never get passed that .
Lawrence, [who I call "Larry" from my couch], has become my favorite on MSNBC. His dry delivery of DJT bashing nightly is so much LOL. Not sure Brian Williams could beat Lawrence in this wry delivery.
Whenever they claim how healthy he is it always makes me think of the claim that Kim Jong Un doesn’t poop.
Lol! That would explain a lot!
That will make those ankles swell, among other things.😂😂
Let’s ask Waltine Nauda, the official POTUS diaper changer if emperor Von Shitzinpants poops.
Ha! I’d rather not know.
Why weren't the Carnegie Mellon profs *screaming* when he went into that ridiculous story about the Unabomber? And where is Jake Tapper when we need him?
And yes, he is not well. I'm taking care of my heart so that I can outlive him if it's the last thing I do.
Same here, the 'outlive him' thing. I'm a year older than he is, and can't wait to rejoice.
89 next month...but even I'm hoping to outlive the SOB
If you know what’s good for all of us, you BETTER!
Damn, I wanna be 89.
Actually, 80 ain’t bad, I just want to outlive this mess. Although Trump is a Boomer, and you and I are of the Silent Generation, some of our cohort is simply awful, starting with Mitch McConnell, and others.
You go girl!
80 on Monday!!
Damn right, I hope to be able to live well but regardless, I will keep going if only for spite. Too many of us have put too much into living honestly to let these bastards get away with what they are doing.
Jake is still being prepped in the FAUX News spin center.
The blatantly hypocritical virtue signaling of the GOPedos is fucking exhausting
Apparently some of the Republican family values they like most are pedophilia and incest. Wonder if Ivanka and Tiffany are in those files.
I would bet a donut that Ivanka is in the files. DJT is 'transactional' in everything he does, and thinks. What value did he have to transact with the 'friend' pedo Epstein? The pedo had real money, connections, and power, everything the malignant narcissist craves. Ivanka could be the glue that cemented the 'friendship'. There is no bottom to DJT's depravity so this is not a line he would hesitate to cross if he stood to gain his 'precious'. Just saying...
Definitely scans, he is stupid & arrogant, but has a strong sense of self-preservation, so it makes sense he would talk about how 'dateable' his daughter is to pimp her, something he would think less likely he could be accountable for than assaulting her directly, himself. Pedos are necessarily very secretive & deception. I think that's a valid speculation on your part if I understood your implication correctly.
I think Tiffany is the sanest of them all.
Because she stayed as far from him as possible for a long time.
Stayed away, or was never invited in? My sense of her upbringing was that she was always on the fringes of the Trump Clan, not really invited in except on ceremonial occasions, and she was certainly not hesitant to vaunt her connection when she was given the opportunity (like her wedding)...
Another definition to consider: Perhaps there was technically nothing labelled "client list," making it easily deniable by Trump, etc. But there seems to have been an "address book." It is referred to in many places. It is that book which likely holds the keys.
No, the "thousands" of videos would be better.
🤔
The Epstein List/Files have riled up Chris Cuomo, he professes that "I don't believe this administration is covering up for Trump. Those pictures online with him and young girls -- it's fake. I've never seen proof that ties Trump to Epstein. I actually find Trump's position on Epstein to be pretty reasonable".
Does anyone want to speculate on who he would be trying to cover up for?
His piece of shit brother.
Or himself?
Once reasonable people who cross over to the MAGATY side don’t realize how FUCKING STOOPID they sound. I mean, really Cuomo?
And we should believe him why?
What??!!
There must be some amazing kompramant (is that how you spell it?) on these republicans who voted against what the majority of their constituents want.
Nothing makes any sense anymore.
Every one of them has skeletons in their closets. That and having to functioning the real world if they lose their seats.
Yeah probably both sides have ties to epstein too.
I want each and every one of them associated with Epstein OUT!
Idc who they are.
Kompromat. Close enough.
I don't think it's that complicated. The God King doesn't want it released, they vote to not release it. Why does that not make sense?
I read from a poster that the hand thing is possibly caused from Coumadin (a blood thinner) bruising so heart failure is def a possibility.
Kay-el let's hope it's heart failure. I hope he's dead soon. I'm going to have a wild party when he's underground . I hate that son if a bitch.
To quote from ELO, "There's gonna be a party all over the world."
Sometimes when I get real down, I pretend that it's the day we wake up to the headlines and it gets me actually giddy.
Definitely going to use that trick to help with the bad days!!
Dead yes, soon no. We will best be served if he steadily declines to become unmistakably weak and pathetic, to the point his handlers will no longer be able to hide it.
At some point, they'll have to replace him either way. If he dies, here's Vance. Too hard to handle, 25th amendment, here's Vance. Don't want to ostracize the base? Assassination, and here's Vance. We're fucked until we can find Democratic candidates that can win in Republican strongholds
I'm not saying that Vance is not a loathsome option here. However, he is not a force of nature, he's not supernatural like Trump is. He's an empty suit run by remote control from Silicon Valley. He also has the personality of a cardboard box.
He's a problem, but he's a different problem than the one we have now, one that will require a new conversation. The Dems will remain the same kind of ineffectual shit they are now.
All the more reason for us to drag this thing out with Trump slowly circling the drain, sucking the life and brains out of MAGAland.
I also wonder whether Couchfucker Magee has the chops to hold the MAGATS together. He is devoid of personality and doesn’t have Shitler’s charisma.
Already there, no?
I sure as hell think so
Amen. Meanwhile, it may be time to re-watch The Death of Stalin.
Just keep in mind that JustaDick Vance (and his tech-bros handlers) have the potential to be Sooo much worse. That keeps me up at night.
He would be the only dead Prez going down Constitution Avenue (draped in the Russian flag) and people would be booing and throwing McDonalds wrappers at the casket!
Dave, we can only hope!! I like how you think!!
A series of strokes is another possibility, along with genetic factors for dementia. In any case, given the moral and intellectual wreckage holding power in our government, he will finish out his term even as a babbling invalid.
He will finish his term in a casket buried on his golf course.
He probably also has had some type of stroke, another case for blood thinners.
🤞🤞🤞
It does make sense that he is on a blood thinner! 🤔
What surgeries has he had....?
I’m not sure. An ear transplant? 🤔 (plus upvote for your name)
😂😂😂 He sure did
So, Kay-El, is it your testimony that Shitler’s hand sores are NOT from tertiary syphilis? Is your hand on the tRumpian Bible now?
Lol, not at all. Just another possibility out of many.
