another too-much-news day. I didn't even get to write about that stupid fucking commemorative coin with Donny's insipid face on it

Giving 'dirty money' a whole new meaning.

DJ Headthrob's avatar

This is what these guys do. They float something ridiculous and see if it gets any traction. Everyone knows that U.S. currency may only feature DEAD presidents (or those killed in a duel). Just like Orange Foolius cannot (legally) run for a third term. But they sure as shit are gonna try.

Last night I was at a concert where local women artists paid tribute to women artists of the past. There was one young women (21 years old, she's been fronting bands since she was 11) who, after her set, before breaking down, returned to the mic and said "I can't fucking wait until the president is dead."

She got a huge ovation.

Lin Talbot-Koehl's avatar

I would have LOVED to see that!!

arne link's avatar

I would have clapped until my palms bled. Bravo to that woman.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

That was pretty much the response. Nice to see the younger ones so passionate about this.

Most of us think that every day!

Apparently, the coin is a “commemorative” coin instead of actual money. It is not “legal tender” but rather to be saved, (or enshrined and gloated over by stupid MAGGATS) And apparently it’s going to cost a LOT of real money to get one.

Neal Stiffelman's avatar

Yeah, that’s a tough one.

Martha Howell's avatar

Just once, I'd like all the Dems to get on message and point out to all the taxpayers out there that, while we're embroiled in a stupid and pointless war we are being asked to puke up $200B MORE tax dollars toward, the President cut health care, food security, education, the 1st and 4th amendments, killed our nation's standing in the world, our worldwide political alliances, the dollar, 12 service members, 40-some immigrants, and 3 US citizens, and he's focused on making an illegal gold coin of himself he can toss in his Ballroom of Bribes while the assembled praise his grandeur.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

They are doing exactly this. The media doesn't want to tell you. But this is why I subscribe to ALL those emails from politicians what some people find annoying because they're frequently asking for money. But it lets me know what they are talking about and they ARE talking about this constantly. We need to stop blaming our own, particularly when we don't have all the information.

if only but comity and decorum

Jennifer's avatar

Chuck Norris died too. He was a big MAGA monger, so maybe the Grim Reaper is swinging his scythe a little closer to the target instead of taking out legends like Rob Reiner, Diane Keaton and Catherine O'Hara. (still not over her)

Eva's avatar

I hate him with the fire of a thousand suns.

Not the coins again! I still haven’t received my commemorative coin from the N Korea summit with Donnycon from the first regime. 😂😂😂

Richard's avatar

🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Frank Nuts's avatar

Jeff, I was doing pretty good till I saw that coin. I just acid refluxed all over my phone. Thanks Jeff!

Mary Fedoroff's avatar

I’m just waiting for the day when Trump runs out of deep ends to go off of. And then goes off the ultimate Deep End. 🪦

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

today in Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit—

RIP Chuck Norris, dead a 86. why didn't Chuck just karate chop the shit out of the grim reaper when he showed up to collect him?

I wish the grim reaper would pay a visit to the 🍊🤡💩!

Jennifer's avatar

Ha! I just made a Grim Reaper comment too. I should've scrolled down first to commiserate lol

Tess's avatar

I did like Chuck Norris when he played Walker, Texas Ranger…but he was a trumper…soooooo🤷🏻‍♀️

AuntTeeFa's avatar

Too bad he didn’t take some company with him

Mike Hammer's avatar

Should have taken Steven Segal instead.

arne link's avatar

He was great at the beginning of his career. His act didn't age well, IMHO.

Frank Nuts's avatar

And John, Segal loves Putin. I mell a threesome in there somewhere. I just know it

Runfastandwin's avatar

why is your name dump? my mama took one...

US Blues's avatar

Bye Felicia! Who cares about that other demented f$&k Norris?

myhoopbabies's avatar

That was my first thought too! He just died like a normal human? He didn't punch death in the throat? RIP Chuck.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I do not wish RIP to anyone who can support this lying, murderous, child raping thief. No one.

Cyndi's avatar

Chuckie would have been more inclined to shoot the guy with the scythe. And he had an ... Ummm ... impressive collection of assault rifles to choose from.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Total Gym did extend his sell-by date, mebbe

DJ Headthrob's avatar

Great fight between the late Chuckles and equally-late Bruce Lee in Return of the Dragon.

Frank Nuts's avatar

When Chuck Norris met the grim reaper he gave the reaper the wrong Monty Python color—“blue…no green,,,boom!”

Neal Stiffelman's avatar

How many more times must I mutter, “I can’t even” and shake my head in wonder? It’s hard to make it through the day, but, man, your work sustains me for many hours. And I know I speak for many of us. Thanks, man. Keep at it.

Paula Dean's avatar

I've only been awake for 3 hours and I'm already exhausted and have a headache. I can't begin to imagine how Jeff finds the energy to do this every day. We owe him bigly. I nominate Jeff Tiedrich for the Nobel Peace Prize, and all the other prizes forever.

SeekingReason's avatar

Don’t forget to make a toy copy of the award to give to tantrum trump. Tell him he won so we can hear Jeff’s speech in peace! 😂

Bob Bowden's avatar

It’s so true that you can spot the monent Prime Minister Takaichi’s soul left her body. All because when Donny DiShonest was born and his soul came knocking on the door, his father and mother insisted nobody’s home, and that soul never made a second attempt to gain admission

Noel's avatar

That was some epic level emotional regulation on her part.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

His brain farts are as out-of-control as his physical ones, although both are fired off with intentional malevolence.

SeekingReason's avatar

I wondered exactly the same thing as Jeff. Why the hell show up with Mr. Psychobabble!? What is the point? An embarrassing photo op?

Lin Talbot-Koehl's avatar

It's like the insults my brother & I used to trade when we were kids.

"When they asked if you wanted brains, you thought they said 'trains', & you said, 'Why? I'm not going anywhere."

"If your brain was gasoline, you wouldn't have enough to drive a motorcycle half-way around a BB."

🤣🤣🤣

CL Tee's avatar

What Neal said.

Jan Moon's avatar

I'm so damn sick of being embarrassed constantly. In the beginning it was every day or so. Now I go to bed embarrassed, wake up embarrassed, and pretty much spend my day embarrassed. It' exhausting. I would really like to get a life but I'm too embarrassed. And exhausted. Thank God you Jeff. He lets me laugh and spit out my coffee. Very cleansing.

Doug Wright's avatar

If I were a praying man I'd say amen, but I agree so much...so AMEN!

Merrill's avatar

When the xenophobic, anti- Democracy forces on the American right wrote its 2025 plan for America under Trump, we can wonder if what we are living through all across American governance, is what those fellow Americans had in mind.

Did they imagine a rogue, fully armed, police state? Did they imagine a DOJ void of the rule of law? Did they imagine a hateful, demented lying leader whose use of the word "WE" means "ME"? Did they imagine a head of HHS who likes diseases more than cures?

And so on and so forth.

Building a White Nationalist theocracy to replace our Democracy and Constitution has been afoot in America for years. Today, it has brought a new version of our ongoing civil war. We won the last civil war. When we win this one, it is imperative we update and fortify our Constitution to better withstand such vicious assaults. We are a far different country than the agrarian country of our founders. It's way past time we fix the compromises the founders made that enable minority rule in America.

kdsherpa's avatar

"is [this] what those fellow Americans had in mind[?]" YES.

Outdoorluvr's avatar

Not sure we won the last Civil War, when we're provably digressing in terms of civil rights and our level of hate for anyone "other".

rlritt's avatar

But along with slavery, the South believed is States Rights, which actually not a good thing, but states should hang on to the rights they still have because Trump he's the only arbiter of rights.

Outdoorluvr's avatar

Agreed. He wants to federalize any policy that fits the regime's agenda, so the individual states have to keep fighting for what is right and just. That's us!

rlritt's avatar

Absolutely.

Harold Miller's avatar

The only “other” I hate is Nazi’s!

Robert Eckert's avatar

We won the war, but lost the peace.

Frank Nuts's avatar

Beautifully stated Merril! You’ve got all our votes. And I’d like to add an amendment: no laws can be written that take up more than one page and written in plain English — no lawyerese.

Merrill's avatar

Right! Shoot the lawyers!

Marsha's avatar

I've been reading a lot about Bessent and his relationship with Ehud Barack and the early days with Epstein. I've always thought Bessent was an idiot BUT I'm now beginning to think this guy is one of the most evil in Trump's "administration". His fingerprints are all over the years with Epstein and he holds a critical position with Trump that allows him to hide important information.

Paula Dean's avatar

Bessent is also blocking the investigation into epstein's finances...an investigation that was ready to indict co-conspirators in 2019 when - guess who? - shut it down.

arne link's avatar

Ehud Barack? Isn't that the guy who viciously raped and beat one of the Epstein girls? Nice dude. I can certainly see him and Bessent being besties.

Joan Serkin's avatar

He is an extremely dangerous dude!

Linda McCaughey's avatar

Also extremely repulsive. Hackles on my neck rise....

arne link's avatar

That is your female Spidy-sense warning you to beware. Always trust that sense.

Maria Devereux's avatar

I agree - I heard him described as the supposed cabinet "adult in the room" various times by Stephanie Ruhl at MSNow, but I always found him incredibly slimy, haughty and patently dishonest, a soulless ghoul.

Marsha's avatar

He comes across as a doufus but that’s not what he is.

Mary Greenwald's avatar

Scott Bessent is openly gay.

Marsha's avatar

Epstein and his Crew didn’t let sexual

orientation interfere with anything - especially finances.

Linda McCaughey's avatar

Proving that you don't have to be straight to be a complete jerk.

Frank Nuts's avatar

Thanks for the info Marsha! I had no idea that that hypocritical pissant, Bessent, was all up in Epstein’s grille…but it figures.

What I don’t get is that Bessent is obviously gay..so who’s getting trafficked to who here. Equal strokes to different folks I guess

Annabelle's avatar

Jeff, I swear that pedophile cocksucker figures if he's damn near dead, he'll just take the rest of the world with him when he goes. Seriously, he's never cared a tinker's damn about ANYBODY but himself, he cares less now. This is the first time in his miserable life that he hasn't gotten his way somehow, and the brain-dead motherfucker can't handle it. He doesn't have a clue about anything. Narcissistic lunatic. I hate that evil bastard, with everyfuckinthing I've got

BTW, Great writing Jeff. Take care of yourself

arne link's avatar

That is my great fear. Like the Pharos of old, everyone and everything goes with them, even the cats.

Annabelle's avatar

I know! I hate to admit it,,but I am terrified of what he's gonna do next

Frank Nuts's avatar

I know right, Arnie! Jesus fucking Christ! Why can’t they blow themselves up and leave us the fuck out of it. Why can’t they (all Trumpers and trump enablers and christofascists all congregate in a big time wrestling arena, hang a nuke from the rafters (this will be in Russia of course with Putin’s and Bibi’s mandatory attendance) and they could all rapture themselves to the (hell)— there’ll be a U-turn involved)

Frank Nuts's avatar

We’re all with you on all of that, Annabelle! I had an aunt that was also an Annabelle. A wonderful lady. As are you!

Annabelle's avatar

I thank you for that very nice reply, but, I don't know if I'm much of a lady. It's this mouth of mine...it just is a part of me...

Thank you, Frank

SethTriggs's avatar

Just watch Murc's Law work. This is a masterclass in "in over their head." There is no plan...none of these clownshoes fucks would be able to find their way out of a bedroom with a single door. All they need to do is just act on the mad pricktator's whims. Whims? You need a brain for that. Autonomic responses maybe?

And that gibbering poltroon represents me, an American, on the world stage. This is the guy throwing shit and everyone just has to sit and smile and nod. "He's overtired, we'll put him to bed."

And millions of Americans like the jerk at the end wanted this because they wanted his promised ethnic cleansing. When the leopard finally snacks on their face then they want to whine to the press about it.

Hey lady, he doesn't care about you. He said so himself. All he needed you to do was stop the Black lady so he would be free to crime and break everything. So you get NOTHING. YOU LOSE. BAD DAY to you.

Major Kong's avatar

Well put Seth. It's OK for Trump to blather about about Pearl Harbor and joke about nuclear weapons in front of the Prime Minister of the only country that has suffered nuclear attack. But you can't talk about slavery or Jim Crow because it might hurt white people's feelings.

Frank Nuts's avatar

That’s right Seth—they vote for him and then march right ahead to be first in line to be slaughtered.

I think we are in need of a modification of our education system. We need to add a number of very important things: classes on how to spot bullies, liars, and psychopaths and what to do about and with them… or this will continue to happen.

And, we need to return to teaching actual history. We don’t need classes on how to pray or who to pray to. Instead of praying to the ether to make things better hoping that someone will listen to their prayer they,instead ,need to be taught how to take responsibility and take positive actions to improve situations and better lives. We could change the course of history in one generation. We would be accused of indoctrination (you know, the thing they do to kids in Sunday school); but, we’ve been accused of what they project we are doing plenty of times in the past. I think we’d survive.

Outdoorluvr's avatar

He's only a "worthless pile of shit" because the price of gas rose high enough that she finally noticed the hit to her own pocketbook. Forget that the price of grocery produce has risen 40%, and historically, will never come back down. They're willing to take that hit as a trade for getting rid of all the "illegal" brown people who commit crimes and vote for Democrats. But a temporary increase in the cost of gas is absolutely untenable! Not another war, not corruption, not the stock market dive, not the loss of our troops or $1 BILLION PLUS being spent per day, not taxes or healthcare, not voting rights, not forced religion or women as chattel, not tariffs, not U.S. security, and not a leader who is clearly mentally incapacitated. It's the gasoline! JFC. I mourn the days when education was considered valuable by the majority of Americans.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I give the ones who wise up at least partial credit. Look at how many fucking stooges still think all this is somehow Biden's fault.

Noel's avatar

I doubt they're capable of wising up. They're pissed because they think the gas prices are making them look bad for their idiot voting.

George A. Polisner's avatar

Thank you Jeff.

While the criminal elect just continues to be himself -planning the curtains for the Epstein Ballroom, and how his super new U.S. Mint Liberty Coin is going to look, he is just being his pre-teen loving criminally corrupt self.

At this point, every GOP Member of Congress who allows this to continue -while the criminal elect and his alcoholic extremist idiot sidekick consider ground troops for Netanyahu's Operation: Epstein Distraction War are all complicit and responsible for Trump's pattern of ineptitude and corruption. So is Vance, the entire Cabinet, and the billionaires like Musk, Adelson, Bezos, Ellison, Mellon, and others who support the suffering, death, and devastation for some tax cuts.

The treasury is being looted (our taxpayer dollars by the way), our environment is being plundered, people are being murdered, justice has been subverted, and any aspirations of democracy lies bleeding in their hands.

F them all. At Rikers. While their assets are seized and used to partially cover the generational suffering they have caused -and continue to do so, unabated.

Yes -I'm angry.

This us the country you get when all you care about is money. Not education, not equality, not kindness; not our environment, the entire planet nor the other species we share it with. Greed is caustic and destroys everything, even the greedy.

Frank Nuts's avatar

And George, I am attending your sermon in the front row giving you a standing ovation!

You know, George, you are the type of person who should be running this country but I’ll bet you wouldn’t do it because you felt that there must be someone who is more qualified—and that’s the problem. This is not a criticism of you George. There are a lot of people like you who would do an admirable job but I’m sure they all have that same thought. The smart and gifted people realize they don’t have all the answers and believe there are people who would be better at it.

The problem is that the general public seem to believe the people who say they have all the answers and then believe all their lies about how they are going to protect the people better than anyone else.

People tend to vote for whoever seems like the most confident person—regardless of facts, truth or reality.

I wish I could figure out why

Robert Eckert's avatar

It was decades ago, maybe during the campaign of Bush Sr. against Michael Dukakis, when Ann Landers got a letter asking "Surely there a lot of people who would be better than these candidates-- why don't they run?"

"Because they aren't dumb," she replied.

That's true. At least he's on the right side of the law and does his best.

rlritt's avatar

I dont care what someone did before if they have strength of character to admit they were wrong. A lot MAGA did vote what they are ultimately getting, but they can't admit they're wrong. This woman belongs in the camp as Taylor Greene who still hold the same political stance but realize Trump is an unethical, dishonest narcissist and they should not have supported him.

You could post multiple times a day and never touch on 90% of the shit these idiots do.

I’m still cringing over NadBuster laying a lifetime guilt trip on his 13 year-old son who’s probably traumatized enough just living in the same house. Training a malleable pubescent kid to become pseudo Christofacist ought to be grounds for imprisonment

With the $39 trillion deficit of which some fucking idiot ran up 27%+ on his watch, these kids won’t even have a future.
