We had to drive by that big eyesore regularly. What it represented was horrific but on top of that it was ugly. The expression was wild and crazy…. that makes sense.
Indeed. The quoted comment, " none of us were ever out of the country, we saw, we learned". Excuse me if this is not exact, I lost the reference page. But that sentiment is and was what people in this country needed then and now. We, as a country have never been invaded. But what if you were able to open your mind and understand what that meant? We could use a dose of that reality now as Europe is under threat and everyone there from England to Ukraine know what exactly that means and why the Putin propaganda is exactly that. But, no instead we have useful idiots so willing to listen and believe. With their $$ hands out no less. The GOP, today? Old Ronnie would never have believed it. But than, he thought the job was done when the wall came down...
How many here went to college on Fulbright Grant's? That came after the fellowships,etc. I believe. But I was happy to receive it, made a difference and so much better than student loans.
Senator Fulbright-what a Rockstar he was. What do we get out of Arkansas these days, Huckabees,oh maybe the equal of Huckleberrys. Truly sad.
I just got my copy of Andy Borowitz's book "Profiles In Ignorance" and it's a doozy. No BS. No satire. No name-calling (except when quoting other's statements)-- and it occured that you two should meet. If you have, and that would not be a mind-bender, you probably should meet. At any rate, I am happy to support both of you.
Thanks for your involvement in telling the truth, we are surely in need of as much of that as we can get.
The saddest part of all this is the still persuasive ignorance that Trump and his ilk have damaged and continue to damage our country with. The dumbing down of America would be much worse and could be much worse, except for all of our efforts to bring the country back to some semblance of sanity and truth. Thanks.
At one time way back when he who shall not be named was in the oval office, I tried to keep track of all the people Putin had a beef with, who died under mysterious circumstances. And still they think Putin is a great guy and Russia is a great country. They don't have a border problem! They don't give rights to gays and trans people! Well, the border is only a problem if you want to get the hell out of there. And nobody has rights over there! It's not just LGBTQ people! The murder of Novotny should set off some alarms for these folks, but if you asked them about Novotny, they would just say: WHO?
I did unsubscribe but when they offered me a cheap deal I went back to WaPo only because of Vladimir Kara-Murza. He posted something a few days back, and then suddenly his comrade Alexi is dead. My guess is it will turn out to be one of those special Russian heart attacks.
I told them the first time and then came back. I'm weak. But I shouldn't have renewed because now it just makes me mad most days. I did cancel so it can't auto -renew next year. I do like the Guardian.
Jeff, I first discovered and followed you on the original Twitter, for your intelligently scathing wit. When it went X I found you again here and became a paid subscribed.
Oh, the rewards! Today, you OUTDID
yourself by pointing out Comer’s ONLY amazing accomplishment (sadly, at taxpayer expense)- proving Hunter’s “ginormous cock”. I burst out laughing and scared the cats.
That alone was worth the $5.a month.
Comer made a legend of Hunter and that fact will make trump jealous as hell!
I am grateful that still no one has murdered our presidential candidates in prison or with defenestration, or made up reasons why they cannot run. Even if Trump deserves to be in jail, so many say, "let the voters decide." I do not agree with him not being prevented from running, but when I see what happened to Alexander Navalny and wonder what will happen to Boris Nedezhdin.
I don't know -- Putin doesn't seem too impressed by him. (Who knew there was anything about that monster I'd agree with? -- Putin, I mean. Haven't found any common ground with Tucker.) Probably a good thing for Tucker that Putin has an immediate use for him, in spite of trashing him in the media.
When these holier-than-thou MAGA Shit-wads can scream bloody murder about Fanii and $100 and how she pays her bills, then have nothing to say about Clarence Thomas and his financial 'irregularities',or Dipshit Donnie and his hush money, or Jared and his $2 Billion Saudi payoff, they don't know the meaning of the word IRONY! (I can't compete with Jeff in the run-on sentence dept.😊)
Exactly!! The accusations against DA Willis were ridiculous from the outset, but after the first day of the hearing & testimony from Wade, Willis, her father, & the ex-Gov, there should be no doubt that she did not hire Wade in order to have financial benefit accrue to her.
The fact that she asked others to fill that position & they unequivocally turned it down should tell anyone that the accusations are groundless.
This was nothing more than an obvious attempt to smear Willis’ reputation & just more delaying tactics; both suspiciously similar to tried & true Trump techniques.
Thank you Jeff, I will have to agree, with a sculptor wife and comedic son, cool starts right there. It's no surprise he was behind the scenes in very important events.
What a beautiful write up about Dr. Bader. Surprised that it was in WaPo though. I follow Diedrich on Threads and saw his thread last night when I was trying to not die from anaphalactic shock (I made it! 🥴). It surprises me how many people were shocked by this, like they knew him and he was keeping a secret from them. At least, that's how I saw it.
“A fuckload of horse shit” for sure. And the Fani Willis investigation is also a fuckload of horse shit. That’s all I got today! Have a nice weekend and break out the cheese and kraken, popcorn, wine, beer…if Engoron gives us good news!
As rake stepping Jimmy keeps the shit flowing faster than a Class 4 rapid, the tangerine turd awaits his fate from Judge Engeron. Hopefully his ruling will give a whole new meaning of losing his very corrupt ass. Have a good one everybody.
I figured with the almost $500 million in fines, one double wide and multiple triple stacked bunks in every bedroom. You could fit like 4-6 of them in the master bedroom alone. 🤭
Wonder what Comer and Johnson and Trump will say about Navalny's killing. (Probably ignore it.) Alexei Navalny will be remembered for his courage. While the MAGAs will be remembered for their abject cowardice. There must be a list somewhere of Putin's assassination victims. Put Magnitsky at the top. Read Bill Browder's books for the truth about Putin's motivations and methods.
Think I got the news when it was breaking and I mean, seriously, putin just had to have him murdered.
Aleksei Navalny was the victim of two assassination attempts by putins goons using Novichok . The report said Navalny “just died in prison.” Yeah. Sure. Right.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Novichok was used for the final assassination attempt which sadly worked.
Americans and the Press have a difficult time wrapping their minds around the reality of Putin's Russia. (We live in the Golden Rule world.) Think about the drug lords and the US Mafia. Now give them nuclear tipped hypersonic missiles, 100 million citizens to extort money from, a few million young men you can sacrifice to invade and extend control over neighbors, control of the legal system to avoid accountability for criminal acts, control of the press and unlimited cyber war on enemies. Corrupt the politicians in your enemys' governments to prevent them from stopping you. Use every asset and method to retain and extend power, without any limits. This is truly ORGANIZED crime!
I recall Soviet general that left when or around the fall of the USSR saying more or less what you said with further clarification and I paraphrase, " we kept the Voy within our borders and they were controlled by KGB, army etc. Now they are loose on the world." And oligarchy has indeed been loosed. And Russia under Putin is one big Voy.
I’m confused by your fondness of Navalny. He was very anti-immigrant and Muslim. Does your irrational hatred of Putin and Trump know any bounds? Want to talk about assassination victims? Do you recall the name of Abdulrahman Anwar al-Awlaki? He was a 16-year old American citizen killed by a US drone on the order of Obama. Man! you guys really don’t like Muslims
I do not believe my, & other’s, fear & hatred of Putin & Trump is at all irrational. The fact that Putin murders anyone who he perceives as a threat to his hold on power is enough to instill those emotions, without figuring in his enormous corruption & theft of wealth from the Russian people.
There is no basis for your assertion that “we” must really hate Muslims.
If you are referring to the Israeli govt genocide in Gaza, there are many of us who are appalled at our govt’s unequivocal continuing support of that & are calling on Biden & all elected reps to stop it immediately.
I am personally against sending another dime or weapon to Israel. If I had my way, the aid for Israel in the latest Senate bill would all go to relief for Gaza. OTOH, Trump & his Evangelical base are extremely anti-Muslim as he has stated many times.
The Evangelicals want the removal of all Muslims from that area since according to their beliefs, the end times & The Rapture can’t occur until all of that land is under the control of & populated by Israelites.
As to the Fulton County AG overseeing the criminal case against Liar, Fraud, Con, Racist, Fascist, Traitor, Insurrectionist, Sc umbag, Putin’s Puppet Donald Adolf Trump, It should be obvious to ANYONE (anyone with a working brain and even a remote sense of logic) that all Fraud Trump’s GA-felony-case attorneys are trying, regarding AG Willis, is to DELAY, DELAY, DELAY the beginning of the case against Trump.
As to records of payments Willis made, she testified that she pays virtually all of her bills (which includes reimbursements of payments made by others on her behalf) by a cash App or by cash and that she keeps substantial cash at her home. Anyone who’s taken time to read about the history of Blacks in America [including the history of racism (which still exists today] well knows that Blacks have always, throughout our country’s history, been taken advantage of, and this includes by banks, which have been, and are, owned by White Americans. Within the Black community, it is commonplace for Black Americans to use cash to pay their bills. And, THERE IS NOTHING ILLEGAL ABOUT THAT. I found AG Willis’ testimony to be frank, honest (with a wee bit of (please excuse my use of inappropriate language) “fuck you” to Fraud Trump’s attorneys…… who were on a going-nowhere fishing expedition to prove something they can’t prove (because what they’ve alleged DID NOT HAPPEN.) This particular Fraud-Trump-Attorney Clown Show action is nothing more than a case-delay tactic.
Let’s get on with the trial. WITHOUT ANY FURTHER DELAY, the American People want Liar, Fraud, Con, Racist, Fascist, Traitor, Insurrectionist, Sc umbag Trump, Putin’s Puppet Trump, America’s Presidential Accident & Disgrace, to get his day in court, to be convicted, and to be sentenced to prison.
I applaud AG Willis for being a STRONG, SMART, FIERCELY PROUD, BLACK AMERICAN WOMAN!
As to Fraud Trump’s whining about criminal and civil cases against him being some sort of so-called election interference, perhaps Fraud Trump should not have committed crimes against the American People….. and should have known that NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! The fact that Fraud Trump is running for President should in no way delay Fraud Trump being brought to justice!
They must have a secret spot where they hide all the evidence from the stolen election, the Bidens, deep state Marxist Leftist shit, My Pillow guy, the tapes of Ms. Willis's affair and Agent Orange's real golf scores. We could ask MAGAQs to line up and bend over. There's a map up one of those asses.
They seem to attract assholes. They would fall over each other to volunteer. I'm sure MTG would do it. She's obsessing over Hunter's dick pictures these days.
JEFF TIEDRICH was the first thing I thought yesterday as this news came out, and you didn't fail to amuse, as usual.
So, let's see; Joe and Hunter taking $5M each in bribes to keep Ukranian prosecutors off Burisma's back? LIES!
2000 Mules "documentary," made by that fuckface Dinesh d'Fuckface, and backed by "True the Vote," another Trump endorsed group of lying asshole? LIES!!
The only thing that will save us is VOTING against Trump and all the lying, fucking weasels in his orbit; but DAMN! I love these stories coming out! Let's hope Judge Engoron can get the fine to $500M, so that David "Breaking News as We Come on the Air" Muir is forced to say that the judgment was for A HALF A BILLION DOLLARS!
This will be a GOOD GODDAMNED weekend! Happy weekend to all!
Another $5M on top of 450ish...AND interest at 9%!!! 9%!!!. Little Donny FuckFace is having a shitty day and I am loving it.
AND if he wants to appeal, he has to put up 120% of the $460!
PS did I mention he has an ongoing IRS audit, risking another $100M? Or that lying to get the DC Post Office hotel, etc. My understanding is this is how we get to$450M, but some of these the meter has been running from before the court fing, like 2019!
All of this golf courses, etc are also losing money and he needs to keep throwing $$ at them!, sucking money he doesn't have. Oh, how much will those trials cost? No wonder he started using this to fund raise today.
That narcissistic collapse is most certainly coming-timber!
For us? Badly. Especially if it comes from Putin or some pass through. This maybe the most dangerous times because so many legal money issues we have. And it won't be illegal from many sources, like PAC money. Maybe the Saudis will do it.
And no wonder he wants Lara at the RNC where she can keep funneling cash to him. (Does he really think that a party full of people a lot like him is going to stand by while he empties the bank accounts and looks under the sofa cushions?)
What's most gratifying about the Engeron judgment is that thing about having to put up 120% of the fraud judgment if he wants to appeal. He could still use his favorite delaying tactic if he wants, but it's going to cost him more than he's got.
In the fraud case with Engoron, there is already 99-100M added to that right now for interest that has been accruing since the fraud occurred or since the case was filed; I’m not clear which date, but it is already owed, & interest will continue to accrue until appeals are done & the judgement is paid
Yes, including the funding for the old post office/ DC and others, from 2019 in one case I read, but surely further back, and at 9%! The 2% change in NY law is recent with the present governor, so even at a combination of rates, I believe the estimated $1M/ a week in further accruing interest! Ouch!
And, baby I hope it hurts that conman, old Donny 2-books as much as it appears it does and should.
These fuck heads with twisted brain strings-what in hell are they doing or have been doing save impeachment of any and everyone in Joe Biden’s safe zone. I tried talking sense into my grandson about this but he believes all the idiots are telling the truth. WTH is wrong he is my off spring of my off spring. Why can’t that planet eater be taken off the ballot, be disqualified for the insurrection or I don’t know for pissing in public or anything? Joe has to beat him he just has to or we are fucked as a planet.
TJ- It is truly bizarre that people can’t come to a conclusion about trump by merely listening to one single rally speech! It is way beyond shocking to me that trump can’t be removed for doing far more dangerous stunts than the Rosenbergs. As we know, they got the death penalty. Add rapist to trump’s deadly coup attempt, colluding with Russia. If the Rosenberg’s got the death penalty, trump would qualify for our famous CiA Off premises torture program.
What the hell else is going on that this draft dodging orange vomit, Covid-denying killer, coup attempting killer, rapist, traitor, CLEAR violator of 14th Amendment Sec 3…cannot be stopped in any way.
The Democrats allowed Obama’s Supreme Court pick to be stopped with a year left in office. Trump was assigning judges up to the minute he left the office he never won! 😡🤯
Trump is way more dangerous to our country than the Rosenberg’s ever were or could be. He’s more buddied up with a Russian dictator than any American I know of. As soon as he had a platform he was praising Putin.
Haha so soooo true Love George Carlin wish he was here today he would gave won the lottery 10 times over with all the material available now for him to use!
Carlin would say see, I told you - The average American keeps getting stupider and stupider, and half of America is even stupider than THAT! Because the Owners want it that way.
These Republicans are the models for every Otto Dix painting, every Botero portrait of a corpulent, dissolute generalissimo or dictator, every swinish bag man in a Jimmy Breslin story. It was never just satire; it was clinical and lucid.
One of the things that is wrong with OUR country is that IGNORANCE is rampant. A reasonable person, one with a mind at least partly working, would look at the $787.5 million settlement Fox (Faux) News was forced to pay because Fox (Faux) News repeatedly and knowingly punished LIES about the 2020 election and conclude that Fox (Faux) News is (please excuse my language) FULL OF SHIT. And, of course, Fox (Faux) News isn't the only bad actor, take for example OANN and NewsMax, networks that also repeatedly and knowingly spew lies, fake news and false information. If one gets his/her news only from networks that publish lies, fake news and false information (about both President Biden and the great things he has accomplished and America's Presidential Accident and Disgrace Donald Adolf Trump), then how can anyone expect IGNORANCE not to play a huge role in what's going on in OUR country?
Very recently, Patriot Jeff Tiedtrich posted a photo of a Trump supporter wearing a confederate flag T-shirt emblazoned with this sentence: "MY INCESTORS BUILT THIS COUNTRY".
The outcome of the upcoming election will be determined by who wins the swing states!
Democrats, Independents and Moderate Republicans need to focus their efforts and money on electing Democrats in SWING states!
- Get unregistered people registered to vote!
- Ensure that voters understand why liar fraud con traitor Trump is a disgrace.
- Make sure that all voters are aware of what MAGAt Republicans are doing to suppress voter turnout.
One swing state, Wisconsin, is being neglected in the press and in the Dem fundraising world. We are controlled by a gerrymandered Retrumplican State Legislature (currently being fought by citizens and the State SC.) They have finally been forced to agree to new maps but want to delay implementation until November. AAARRGH! We could use some help.
I have donated to WisDems & will do so again, but you’re correct, the DNCC & all of the Dem PACs need to pitch in to help; my 50-100 isn’t gonna cut it
Seriously, how do imbeciles like Clown Comer get elected to our House of Representatives?
On another note.......
Biden is old.
Trump is old…….and Trump is a liar, a fraud, a con, a scumbag, a racist, a fascist, a traitor, a sex abuser, a serial defamer, a coward, an arrogant imbecile, Putin’s puppet and an all-around piece-of-shit.
There was and still are cultures that revere the elders in their midst. Usually the head of these tribes if you will was the oldest most ancient as they were considered the wisest.
Nonononono! GOP voters do not learn. They keep on doing the same, believing the same, repeating the same old sh_ _ . We must stop hoping 'they will learn.' They will not. We need to find those folks who do learn and do care.
I'm pretty sure the major qualification for being a GOP voter is NOT being able to think critically (arguably necessary to do much learning beyond a certain point). It's not a question of whether they went to school; it's whether their minds were open to input that challenged their brains to engage at least marginally.
FLOOD CONGRESSMAN MIKE JOHNSON’S PHONES WITH MESSAGES THAT URGE HIM TO GET A SPINE, NOT BE A CHICKEN, COWARD AND TRAITOR, AND BRING THE SENATE’s BIPARTISAN FOREIGN AID BILL TO THE HOUSE FLOOR FOR A VOTE.
Put a daily or weekly reminder in your smartphone calendar. That’s what I do to remind me to keep calling the WH, VP, FLOTUS, my 2 Senators, & House Rep, oh & the First Gentleman too
I also go to each of those person’s Threads & IG pages & tell them what I want & expect them to do.
That will work. fyi I found out there is only a human to take your message to the Pres available 11-2 EST Tues - Thurs. All others are open at least M-F
by the way, Diedrich Bader's dad seems like he was the coolest CIA agent ever
https://wapo.st/3uHLSnl
Absolutely. The man was a genuine hero. Ought to be statues to such as he.
That's way better than having to look at Nathan Bedford Forrest on a horse.
Kinda sorta.
Especially that acid tripping one, in Nashville.
that was exactly the one I had in mind... :)
I thought so! It is like they were sculpting a gargoyle's face, and got that commission and stuck it on.
We had to drive by that big eyesore regularly. What it represented was horrific but on top of that it was ugly. The expression was wild and crazy…. that makes sense.

I will have to check it out!

It's the book the world needed. No need for satire, the reality is wild enough.
From your lips to the karma of the universe.
Thanks for posting the obit…very interesting. 👍
I couldn't get past the pay wall but did note, with no little irony, the byline that Wapo still uses..."Democracy dies in darkness".
ok, edited my comment so that the WaPo article is now a "gift link" that everyone can read.
We need to take turns gifting articles that matter as more and more folks unsubscribe from legacy media.
I did unsubscribe but when they offered me a cheap deal I went back to WaPo only because of Vladimir Kara-Murza. He posted something a few days back, and then suddenly his comrade Alexi is dead. My guess is it will turn out to be one of those special Russian heart attacks.
Think about dumping WaPo AGAIN (and tell 'em why as you do so) and support The Guardian instead.
I told them the first time and then came back. I'm weak. But I shouldn't have renewed because now it just makes me mad most days. I did cancel so it can't auto -renew next year. I do like the Guardian.
aw, thanks, Jeff!

Democracy dies with every media outlet's spotlight on it. Recording every painful twitch and not extending a single finger to help.
I am grateful that still no one has murdered our presidential candidates in prison or with defenestration, or made up reasons why they cannot run.

Even Tucker Carlson did not risk defenestration when he interviewed Putin.
I don't know -- Putin doesn't seem too impressed by him. (Who knew there was anything about that monster I'd agree with? -- Putin, I mean. Haven't found any common ground with Tucker.) Probably a good thing for Tucker that Putin has an immediate use for him, in spite of trashing him in the media.

I love him, his parents were a nun and a priest .
All Rs are seriously irony deficient.
When these holier-than-thou MAGA Shit-wads can scream bloody murder about Fanii and $100 and how she pays her bills, then have nothing to say about Clarence Thomas and his financial 'irregularities',or Dipshit Donnie and his hush money, or Jared and his $2 Billion Saudi payoff, they don't know the meaning of the word IRONY!

I find it interesting that the entire trump crime family has moved to Floriduh….”Bring it” Judge Engiron‼️
They out shopping for a trailer that will fit all of them in after the verdict comes down. 😆
😂😂😂
Ever think about doing standup comedy Donna?
LOL! I left that up to my brother. He was much funnier.
The might need 2-3 double wide trailers to fit the entire clan….
I figured with the almost $500 million in fines, one double wide and multiple triple stacked bunks in every bedroom. You could fit like 4-6 of them in the master bedroom alone. 🤭
Trumps head and ego alone, would fill that space.
The gov. here in FL. (DeathSantis) put out a siren-call to all the magas that they could get away with anything here.
😂😂😂😂😂

Spot on.
Sounds like something the brainless Cheeto would love to be a part of. Ugh!
I can dig it. They enemy is already here. If John D Rockefeller and Roy Cohen had a baby they'd call it Leonard Leo.
I recall Soviet general that left when or around the fall of the USSR saying more or less what you said with further clarification and I paraphrase, " we kept the Voy within our borders and they were controlled by KGB, army etc. Now they are loose on the world." And oligarchy has indeed been loosed. And Russia under Putin is one big Voy.
That was President Obama's astute observation. He disliked him on sight.
I'm breathlessly awaiting "Tucker"'s take on this. Are we sure he didn't suggest it to Putie?
Ha. You give Tucker-lackey extraordinaire far too much credit. He has few working brain cells
It happened not long after his "interview".
You think that Tucky would be that smart?
That is Putin's favorite means of assassination if there are no high-rise buildings with windows handy.
Absolutely.

As to the Fulton County AG overseeing the criminal case against Liar, Fraud, Con, Racist, Fascist, Traitor, Insurrectionist, Sc umbag, Putin’s Puppet Donald Adolf Trump, It should be obvious to ANYONE (anyone with a working brain and even a remote sense of logic) that all Fraud Trump’s GA-felony-case attorneys are trying, regarding AG Willis, is to DELAY, DELAY, DELAY the beginning of the case against Trump.
As to records of payments Willis made, she testified that she pays virtually all of her bills (which includes reimbursements of payments made by others on her behalf) by a cash App or by cash and that she keeps substantial cash at her home. Anyone who’s taken time to read about the history of Blacks in America [including the history of racism (which still exists today] well knows that Blacks have always, throughout our country’s history, been taken advantage of, and this includes by banks, which have been, and are, owned by White Americans. Within the Black community, it is commonplace for Black Americans to use cash to pay their bills. And, THERE IS NOTHING ILLEGAL ABOUT THAT. I found AG Willis’ testimony to be frank, honest (with a wee bit of (please excuse my use of inappropriate language) “fuck you” to Fraud Trump’s attorneys…… who were on a going-nowhere fishing expedition to prove something they can’t prove (because what they’ve alleged DID NOT HAPPEN.) This particular Fraud-Trump-Attorney Clown Show action is nothing more than a case-delay tactic.
Let’s get on with the trial. WITHOUT ANY FURTHER DELAY, the American People want Liar, Fraud, Con, Racist, Fascist, Traitor, Insurrectionist, Sc umbag Trump, Putin’s Puppet Trump, America’s Presidential Accident & Disgrace, to get his day in court, to be convicted, and to be sentenced to prison.
I applaud AG Willis for being a STRONG, SMART, FIERCELY PROUD, BLACK AMERICAN WOMAN!
As to Fraud Trump’s whining about criminal and civil cases against him being some sort of so-called election interference, perhaps Fraud Trump should not have committed crimes against the American People….. and should have known that NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! The fact that Fraud Trump is running for President should in no way delay Fraud Trump being brought to justice!
She "Yours in Serviced" their asses.
💯💯💯😆😆😆
Love Fani Willis
Me too!
Thank you for your excellent comment. You voiced my exact thoughts on the matter
Awwwww, poor Jimmy got another pie in the face. Bananas cream is obviously his favorite.
They must have a secret spot where they hide all the evidence from the stolen election, the Bidens, deep state Marxist Leftist shit, My Pillow guy, the tapes of Ms. Willis's affair and Agent Orange's real golf scores. We could ask MAGAQs to line up and bend over. There's a map up one of those asses.
but euwww! I'm not conducting the search for that map... can't we use xrays or something?
They seem to attract assholes. They would fall over each other to volunteer. I'm sure MTG would do it. She's obsessing over Hunter's dick pictures these days.
JEFF TIEDRICH was the first thing I thought yesterday as this news came out, and you didn't fail to amuse, as usual.
So, let's see; Joe and Hunter taking $5M each in bribes to keep Ukranian prosecutors off Burisma's back? LIES!
2000 Mules "documentary," made by that fuckface Dinesh d'Fuckface, and backed by "True the Vote," another Trump endorsed group of lying asshole? LIES!!
The only thing that will save us is VOTING against Trump and all the lying, fucking weasels in his orbit; but DAMN! I love these stories coming out! Let's hope Judge Engoron can get the fine to $500M, so that David "Breaking News as We Come on the Air" Muir is forced to say that the judgment was for A HALF A BILLION DOLLARS!
This will be a GOOD GODDAMNED weekend! Happy weekend to all!
David Muir is my favorite journalist. He presents truth, no matter who it concerns. The best news show on tv.
omg, i forgot, i think he's supposed to decide today. fingers crossed!
$355M, recently.
And, plus $83M, and what the 1st $5M, or is that $10M
Total? ABOUT$488M.
So, he wants to appeal, the bond is? Good luck, I imagine unless some donors want to pass the hat!
Hahaha
PS the interest must be soul crushing...if you had a soul that is.
fucking beautiful! oh, you forgot the first Jean Carroll amount of 5.5 million.
Did I?
Another $5M on top of 450ish...AND interest at 9%!!! 9%!!!. Little Donny FuckFace is having a shitty day and I am loving it.
AND if he wants to appeal, he has to put up 120% of the $460!
PS did I mention he has an ongoing IRS audit, risking another $100M? Or that lying to get the DC Post Office hotel, etc. My understanding is this is how we get to$450M, but some of these the meter has been running from before the court fing, like 2019!
All of this golf courses, etc are also losing money and he needs to keep throwing $$ at them!, sucking money he doesn't have. Oh, how much will those trials cost? No wonder he started using this to fund raise today.
That narcissistic collapse is most certainly coming-timber!
totally agree. if some psycho billionaire gives him the dough, how does that work?
For us? Badly. Especially if it comes from Putin or some pass through. This maybe the most dangerous times because so many legal money issues we have. And it won't be illegal from many sources, like PAC money. Maybe the Saudis will do it.
And no wonder he wants Lara at the RNC where she can keep funneling cash to him. (Does he really think that a party full of people a lot like him is going to stand by while he empties the bank accounts and looks under the sofa cushions?)
What's most gratifying about the Engeron judgment is that thing about having to put up 120% of the fraud judgment if he wants to appeal. He could still use his favorite delaying tactic if he wants, but it's going to cost him more than he's got.
In the fraud case with Engoron, there is already 99-100M added to that right now for interest that has been accruing since the fraud occurred or since the case was filed; I’m not clear which date, but it is already owed, & interest will continue to accrue until appeals are done & the judgement is paid
Yes, including the funding for the old post office/ DC and others, from 2019 in one case I read, but surely further back, and at 9%! The 2% change in NY law is recent with the present governor, so even at a combination of rates, I believe the estimated $1M/ a week in further accruing interest! Ouch!
And, baby I hope it hurts that conman, old Donny 2-books as much as it appears it does and should.
Right back to you!🥂
These fuck heads with twisted brain strings-what in hell are they doing or have been doing save impeachment of any and everyone in Joe Biden’s safe zone. I tried talking sense into my grandson about this but he believes all the idiots are telling the truth. WTH is wrong he is my off spring of my off spring. Why can’t that planet eater be taken off the ballot, be disqualified for the insurrection or I don’t know for pissing in public or anything? Joe has to beat him he just has to or we are fucked as a planet.
TJ- It is truly bizarre that people can’t come to a conclusion about trump by merely listening to one single rally speech! It is way beyond shocking to me that trump can’t be removed for doing far more dangerous stunts than the Rosenbergs. As we know, they got the death penalty. Add rapist to trump’s deadly coup attempt, colluding with Russia. If the Rosenberg’s got the death penalty, trump would qualify for our famous CiA Off premises torture program.
What the hell else is going on that this draft dodging orange vomit, Covid-denying killer, coup attempting killer, rapist, traitor, CLEAR violator of 14th Amendment Sec 3…cannot be stopped in any way.
The Democrats allowed Obama’s Supreme Court pick to be stopped with a year left in office. Trump was assigning judges up to the minute he left the office he never won! 😡🤯
Two words - Mitch McConnell.
Fuck Mitch McConnell—POS!
I wish I could like your comment 1000 times!
Here here!!
Oh my God me too
I like to call him Mitch the Bitch.
That's rich!
Quick version; Drumpf is worse on every level than Charles Manson. Except he has money so he walks free.
I agree with you on everything. I can’t wrap my head around this one.
Trump is way more dangerous to our country than the Rosenberg’s ever were or could be. He’s more buddied up with a Russian dictator than any American I know of. As soon as he had a platform he was praising Putin.
As George Carlin stated, our time as a species is limited, but the planet will be fine. It just needed plastic.
Haha so soooo true Love George Carlin wish he was here today he would gave won the lottery 10 times over with all the material available now for him to use!
Carlin would say see, I told you - The average American keeps getting stupider and stupider, and half of America is even stupider than THAT! Because the Owners want it that way.
This would’ve saved him
🤣
Planet eater, good one!
These Republicans are the models for every Otto Dix painting, every Botero portrait of a corpulent, dissolute generalissimo or dictator, every swinish bag man in a Jimmy Breslin story. It was never just satire; it was clinical and lucid.
👍👍👍
🏆🏆🏆🏆
Nicely put!
One of the things that is wrong with OUR country is that IGNORANCE is rampant. A reasonable person, one with a mind at least partly working, would look at the $787.5 million settlement Fox (Faux) News was forced to pay because Fox (Faux) News repeatedly and knowingly punished LIES about the 2020 election and conclude that Fox (Faux) News is (please excuse my language) FULL OF SHIT. And, of course, Fox (Faux) News isn't the only bad actor, take for example OANN and NewsMax, networks that also repeatedly and knowingly spew lies, fake news and false information. If one gets his/her news only from networks that publish lies, fake news and false information (about both President Biden and the great things he has accomplished and America's Presidential Accident and Disgrace Donald Adolf Trump), then how can anyone expect IGNORANCE not to play a huge role in what's going on in OUR country?
Very recently, Patriot Jeff Tiedtrich posted a photo of a Trump supporter wearing a confederate flag T-shirt emblazoned with this sentence: "MY INCESTORS BUILT THIS COUNTRY".
The outcome of the upcoming election will be determined by who wins the swing states!
Democrats, Independents and Moderate Republicans need to focus their efforts and money on electing Democrats in SWING states!
- Get unregistered people registered to vote!
- Ensure that voters understand why liar fraud con traitor Trump is a disgrace.
- Make sure that all voters are aware of what MAGAt Republicans are doing to suppress voter turnout.
- Get all registered voters to the polls!
Please copy and post this everywhere!
One swing state, Wisconsin, is being neglected in the press and in the Dem fundraising world. We are controlled by a gerrymandered Retrumplican State Legislature (currently being fought by citizens and the State SC.) They have finally been forced to agree to new maps but want to delay implementation until November. AAARRGH! We could use some help.
I have donated to WisDems & will do so again, but you’re correct, the DNCC & all of the Dem PACs need to pitch in to help; my 50-100 isn’t gonna cut it
Same here. And not just donations, but spreading the word. Koch Industries tried to buy Wisconsin. We're fighting back!
I shared your post on my Facebook page. I hope that many will see and read it. Thanks for doing the "heavy" part... :-|
Thank you!
What a shock! NOT.. Thank you for posting this Jeff😂👌🏼
Seriously, how do imbeciles like Clown Comer get elected to our House of Representatives?
On another note.......
Biden is old.
Trump is old…….and Trump is a liar, a fraud, a con, a scumbag, a racist, a fascist, a traitor, a sex abuser, a serial defamer, a coward, an arrogant imbecile, Putin’s puppet and an all-around piece-of-shit.
Not a hard choice 😂🤣😂
There was and still are cultures that revere the elders in their midst. Usually the head of these tribes if you will was the oldest most ancient as they were considered the wisest.
Now is this guy Yakov Smirnoff's brother? He was funny. This guy is dumb.
😂😂 "What a Country"
Too much Vodka ? 😉
Boris Badenoff is his cousin by Natasha’s sister’s 1 st cousin’s mothers uncles daughter.
😂😂😂😂
Question is when will GOP voters learn?
Nonononono! GOP voters do not learn. They keep on doing the same, believing the same, repeating the same old sh_ _ . We must stop hoping 'they will learn.' They will not. We need to find those folks who do learn and do care.
Okay, most.
They won't. At least the diehard MAGAmorons won't. What Trump is giving them, the meanness, the lies, the outrage, the cruelty, is what they crave.
This is true. It’s a mass mental illness…
Yep.
Right?? They could care less.
They COULDN'T care less. If they COULD care less, that means they care somewhat.
You're welcome 😊
Not likely anytime soon. The orange Kool-aid is permanently attached to their DNA.
I'm pretty sure the major qualification for being a GOP voter is NOT being able to think critically (arguably necessary to do much learning beyond a certain point). It's not a question of whether they went to school; it's whether their minds were open to input that challenged their brains to engage at least marginally.
Never, an idiot is an idiot, they don't turn into swans.
Many won't.
Love the lead picture of Comer Fudd. Says it all.
Jimmy Crackhead Corn , & he don't care.
Omg, that last sentence “it’s a lesson that Hog Romancin’ Jimmy keeps refusing to learn.” Has me ☠️ 💀!! Love your rants.

@Joel, thanks for reminding us, and making it so easy to call. I loathe calling, but I did it. Had to leave a message.
Please keep reminding us.
Put a daily or weekly reminder in your smartphone calendar. That’s what I do to remind me to keep calling the WH, VP, FLOTUS, my 2 Senators, & House Rep, oh & the First Gentleman too
I also go to each of those person’s Threads & IG pages & tell them what I want & expect them to do.
Great! I have a stupid-phone but my supply of Post-its is nearly inexhaustible. :-)
That will work. fyi I found out there is only a human to take your message to the Pres available 11-2 EST Tues - Thurs. All others are open at least M-F
