Well to be fair, you probably could have covered it, even if you hadn’t turned on the TV. It was a whining, lying, grievance session, during which he accused his opponents of doing exactly what he does, while his sycophants stood up and applauded his bullshit. So in other words, it was just another day in Trump‘s America.
The nodding and smiling by Mike Johnson was particularly painful to watch. He looked like he was fondly thinking about his Grinder account. And I won’t even comment on JD, except to say that I kept thinking of him in Southpark.
Did Holy Brother Mike actually hear anything that was said? Did he actually see Donnie Demento at the podium? Did he actually know there was a State of the Union address last night? Has he read it yet?
That's the mantra drummed into you if you want to belong to MAGA. It goes all the way from the base having no idea that a tariff is a tax because "i'm not sure what you're talking about, i haven't heard anything about it.'' through to Mikey's denial of ANYTHING trump says or does.
I didn't watch... Colbert was hysterical, haven't seen the rest,I don't watch legacy anymore,(well,they really don't exist anymore, because I guess now the DENIAL of the mouth diarrhea is good enough for them, nothing to see here...),I watch the comedians,and maybe some progressive media.
Absolutely correct, Stephanie. Every accusation is a confession.
I think I am most disappointed by the USA men's hockey team (minus 5 players who declined the invitation). They allowed themselves to be part of a fascist shitshow. It will forever be a stain on their win.
Mike Johnson: “If we lost the midterms — heaven forbid, if we lost the majority in the House — it would be the end of the Trump presidency in a real effect.”
is that a promise, Holy Mike? ….some real wisdom yes I did not say wisdumb, which there was way too much of last night, with applause meter which must be broken because it didn’t move from 0 all night!
‘Heaven forbid’?! Holy Mike’s version of heaven, I’m sure, resembles a country club where women know their place and only the white…sorry right..people get in.
Him and Junior... sampling the product too much...at least he got that deviated septum fixed....the Trump's may have had more plastic surgery than the Kardashians.
The only thing anyone will remember a year from now about last night is Al Green and his sign. Republicans trying to violently rip it away from him is all you need to know about the state of the union right now.
All the little chicken-shit Dem 'Strategist' bedwetters who bleat that Al and Pramila and Rashida are being "unhelpful" can please just fuck all the way off. Nobody likes you and you'll be spending lunchtime stuffed inside your locker.
💯 why didn’t all of the Democrats have signs similar to rep Green? They could have unfurled them one at a time to be escorted out until there was no one left. I guess this would have required some type of smart leadership, which the Democratic Party unfortunately is sorely lacking at this time. Just sit there looking sad guys. Great strategy. 👌
Here's what we've got: no leadership. They desperately want to fight the last war (or three wars back), they bring nothing and are frozen in fear and confusion. It's all us, we're the ones who would give them spines they could stiffen.
Smarter people than me (David Hogg, looking at you, hoss) have been making this call for maybe 10 years: the Democratic Party is a rotten tree, a good storm will bring it down at the roots. We might as well fire up ye olde backhoe, because it is of no use at all to us or the Constitution. I don't even think it will exist in its current form in 10 months.
I believe the average age of Congress is 65, the oldest ever,not to sound ageist,and I'm 64,shitcan all of them, they've all failed miserablely,and start over again,give someone else a try,you don't reward failure with another 10 attempts, that's why we ended up with Trumps.
I agree with you on so many levels, (so many lockers, so little time) but consider this: The Dems have the political winds at their backs right now. We're mopping the floor at the state and federal levels in special elections. Our state is purple, so our Dem Senators and Reps need to stay in office, and in order to do that they need to anger as few people as possible. That means you George in Atlanta, and me, Leigh from Georgia.
Even if they are a buncha pu$$ies, would you vote for a Republican? I'd vote for cat poo before I'd vote for a Republican.
Sort of ambivalent about her. She engaged in meaningless attempted symbolism who only the 'true insiders' would get (appeals to the would-be Cool Kids Club). She was also an excellent street-fighter and would mop the floor with R's who dared cross her. Her snark was thermo-nuclear.
Enough? Oh hell no. But more than we have now, for damn sure.
I'll give him credit for one thing and one thing only; he spoke for almost 2 hours and didn't slur his words at least what I saw and listened to. After an hour and a half of it, I had enough, and it was time for bed. The whole thing was what I expected, a Trump Epstein rally and the cock sucking republicans ate it up along with our disgraced hockey team, fuck them and the gold shit they rode in on. Release the Epstein files.
I used to get a little angry being called a radical lunatic by an insurrectionist rapist,but now I just laugh because he's a rotting corpse waiting for the down escalator...
I saw zero minutes. I did watch some of the alternative event – SO many black quilted parkas! There were some really good speakers though. I keep getting more and more impressive by Pramila Jayapal who I used to have a grudge against for encouraging people to boo Hillary Clinton. But it was really more Rashida Tlaib so I'll continue to despise her.
I am so happy to hear that you fell asleep and did not watch/listen to the whole thing. Although, how in the hell did you fall asleep listening to the noise that comes out of its mouth? I’d rather listen to Quint run his nails down a chalkboard over and over than listen to that 🍊💩👜’s voice.
I'm not sure whether it was on CNN or MS-NOW, as I was channel surfing about 2 hours before the Snore of the Union came on, but the anchor promised that, coming up next, the station fact-checker was going to fact check the speech before Donnie Demento even gave it, because everyone already knows that he will be saying the same old shit (well, she didn't use that word, but it's what she meant).
That might be the first sign that someone, somewhere, might be getting slightly closer to "what the fuck is wrong with you?"
Lucky you! I watched the whole damn thing and I'm pissed. This is why I have always "missed" the SOTU every year. That's two hours I'll never get back.
And I couldn't even read (a book) through it because I was yelling the whole time.
I am so afraid that we won't get to vote. They see the handwriting on the wall. The Fascists see where this is going. What will he do? What will we do?
We need both. Not controlling the Senate doesn't help the overall situation much. Especially if Trump could nominate another SC judge if one dies or retires.
I loved how he kept shaking his head at the Democrats for not cheering for him. “They’re not clapping” oh, and the tiny tear Erika Kirk wiped from her eye.
Yeah ; did everyone notice that ? . Last time they were on the same stage , I needed to flip the channel quickly so the grandchildren didn't see the stuff that went on .
At least once Democrats should show some unity and all walk out...even prevent a quorum...and show they're not going to give up their lunch money,for at least one day.
If the rethugs try to censure Al Green again, NO FUCKING DEMS HAD BETTER VOTE IN FAVOR OF IT. Ten of them did the last time: Bera, Case, Costa, Gillen, Himes, Houlahan, Kaptur, Moskowitz, Perez, and Suozzi. FFS!
Wag The Dog should play on a continual loop since it feels like that’s what we’re living through, one distraction after another to divert attention from, hum…what are they called. The Something-stein files?
My husband and I watched it on Sunday, Sept 9. 2001
On Monday, Sep 10, there was a terrible economic report and,I said "Bush needs a war to distract from this." Wink, wink. The next day, everything changed.
I lasted about five minutes. Did watch Robert Di Niro and some others. Refreshing. Then I went to bed. From what I have read today it looks like the lying liar lied ad nauseam. You could have patched together 125 . . . 107!!! minutes(SORRY) of his other lying lies and gotten the same lying outcome.
I couldnt watch it. I mean, everyone knows it was going to be a glorified rally. I'm catching up with anything consequential here. And how about Spanberger!? 💙💙
If America does manage to save itself from fascism, it wont be because of anything done by Hakeem or Chuckles. I'm sick of their polite approach to losing democracy. Al Green is the hero!
At least in terms of duration, Spanberger aligned with the nanosecond attention span of the median or average room temperature IQ and literacy level of over 140 million American voters. This country is a composite “Dumb and Dumber”, its people in charge are a composite Beavis and Butthead. The Dems in Congress would be Wayne & Garth except that Canada dwarfs the intellect and integrity of this shithole.
the fact that every last Democrat didn't stand up and walk out the minute tangeranus started talking I swear to pete what is wrong with our party? they don't even try to fight back. Tlaib and Omar and Green are the only congresspeople that have a backbone. the rest are business as usualing us right into the graveyard.
Only 4 SCOTUS SCROTUMS showed up. That fat bitch MAGA cheerleader in the red dress who took up 3 seats next to them made up for the other 5. Did they serve Big Mac supersized extra value meals before the drivelfest?
Three scrotums: Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Boney Karret. The fourth was Elena Kagan, decidedly not a scrotum. The other three scrotes (Gorsuch, Alito, and Uncle Thomas) couldn't be bothered.
I saw an MTG interview yesterday,did she get some semblance of sanity back!!! WTF!!! It's like she got blasted with a Jewish Sanity Space Laser or something.
The best part of last night was on the Jimmy Kimmel show when they AI'd Just Dumb Vance humping his chair behind Trump. I scared the dog I laughed so hard.
I love the poll this morning from CNN (lookout CNN!) that had his speech rated the lowest ever at 38%. I still will never understand how he gets that much support.
2 Dems won their state seats last night in PA to keep the majority there.
November can't come soon enough.
I will be early voting to replace MTG and if we can take her seat in this 70-30 district then the sky's the limit. Let's go!
“why does this fuckwaffle continue to get invited onto every show, week after week? he has absolutely nothing of value to say”
I’d suggest that’s precisely why they invite him on their shows: They know he’ll say something stupid, but that’s known as “giving good quote” — that is, saying stupid shit that will go viral BECAUSE it’s stupid shit and thus their faces and media logos will go viral, too, and that’s the name of the game.
The "SOTU" is a reminder of the failed news media landscape. "Can this speech make the pedophile criminal-elect Presidential?"
Sure. We'll dismiss and trivialize the lawlessness, corruption, cruelty, and incompetence if he can form a coherent sentence that isn't dripping in toxic and blatant lies.
You can go back to every campaign speech. Is this the one where it all turns around asks (enter any news organization's name here).
The media, the Roberts Court, Aileen Cannon, his billionaire supporters, his apologists and co-conspirators in the GOP are all accessories to this weakening and destruction of the United States. The State of the Union is they can all go to hell on the next SpaceX flight.
I watched 2 hours of the MoveOn/MeidasTouch People’s speeches…was good, but I couldn’t stay up for the rest of it…(getting old?! lol) Your summary is perfect Jeff—-thanks!
Thanks for taking one for the team. I caught one minute of it and the instant standing ovation he got from half the House for managing to spew out a lie was enough to make me sick. All I could think of was the victims in the Epstein files--those named and the countless many whom we never knew existed (and no longer exist)--and it just makes me sick. They know who's in there. They know HE's in there. And yet the dog and pony show must go on.
History will judge him unfairly but history will also wonder why the hell we aren't marching daily to burn it all to the ground.
Probably. The whole thing, and I mean the WHOLE thing, is set up to protect the powerful. Individual journalists might want to tell the real story, but their bosses, connected to power, do not.
I guess it was inevitable: came home from work and wife was watching it, and she wants to hear what he says and not me screaming in anguish. So I shut up and took it like a man. What you missed was the old pantsload revelling in gore: illegal immigrants, of course, doing the throat cutting and the shooting. That wakes up the creep—it was like Serutan for him.
pro journalist tip: this, my friends, is how you cover a speech after you fell asleep on the couch 30 minutes into it
Well to be fair, you probably could have covered it, even if you hadn’t turned on the TV. It was a whining, lying, grievance session, during which he accused his opponents of doing exactly what he does, while his sycophants stood up and applauded his bullshit. So in other words, it was just another day in Trump‘s America.
which is why I decided it would be more interesting to cover when went on -around- the speech
The nodding and smiling by Mike Johnson was particularly painful to watch. He looked like he was fondly thinking about his Grinder account. And I won’t even comment on JD, except to say that I kept thinking of him in Southpark.
Did Holy Brother Mike actually hear anything that was said? Did he actually see Donnie Demento at the podium? Did he actually know there was a State of the Union address last night? Has he read it yet?
'' i'm not sure what you're talking about, i haven't heard anything about it.''
That's the mantra drummed into you if you want to belong to MAGA. It goes all the way from the base having no idea that a tariff is a tax because "i'm not sure what you're talking about, i haven't heard anything about it.'' through to Mikey's denial of ANYTHING trump says or does.
He couldn't really see the podium. He lacked a booster seat.
Ha! Good one!
He and VD were quite the pair.
They acted like two jerks seated in the last row of the school bus.
Surprised they didn't whack each other with their satchels. . .
Vance needs some Botox.
Yeah - a massive overdose!
Why does JD always look like he is in pain? Is he nearsighted? Did he get mascara in his eyes? What “is” his problem?
He’s just concentrating - he’s thinking up his fourth name.
Karen, I have great difficulty imagining him either concentrating, or, especially, thinking.😉😏
he's daydreaming of the orange idiot finally dying, and instead of the SOTU, he's taking the 'oath'...the oath we won't honor, either.
So glad I didn't watch. Those two alone would have made me puke up my nice dinner, not to mention what's trump's never ending smarm would have done.
I was spared the whole thing. I got 8 hours of wonderful sleep, and didn't miss a thing.
Same!!!It helped that I am in London!
JD was bursting with joy. He couldn't contain himself. Stupid grin.
I didn't watch... Colbert was hysterical, haven't seen the rest,I don't watch legacy anymore,(well,they really don't exist anymore, because I guess now the DENIAL of the mouth diarrhea is good enough for them, nothing to see here...),I watch the comedians,and maybe some progressive media.
Watched Colbert and that was more than enough. Will no one rid us of that smirking Mikey?
Pretty much all of them have that smug, arrogant little smile,the 'we're untouchable, above the law,and have adequate security' smile.
Bessent. Leavitt. So, so many.
Same
Same here!
Amen.
Yes! This was far more entertaining!
Absolutely correct, Stephanie. Every accusation is a confession.
I think I am most disappointed by the USA men's hockey team (minus 5 players who declined the invitation). They allowed themselves to be part of a fascist shitshow. It will forever be a stain on their win.
Planning to Google the names of the 5 who declined right now and send them props!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Thx.
I'm assuming the 5 that were absent, needed to get "home" as the games start again tonight.
There were no games yesterday.
No, your right, they start tonight!
Agreed.
it was basically a despotic variety show on delusional steroids
'That was a little over the top,even for us'
Signed, North Korea.
The whole charade on the GOP side would make Stalin proud.
mike johnson is a howdy doody look alike that smiles like the stepford wives do!
i had a choice and i should have chosen the root canal!
today's sign
1 hr 47 min
???
your boy
suks!
I agree, except that we have the real howdy doody lookalike in South Dakota's Howdy Doody, Rep. Dusty Johnson.
OH KRAP! ANOTHER PANDEMIC! THEY'RE BREEDING!
where are GODZILLA and THE CREATURE FROM the BLACK LAGOON when we really really REALLY NEED THEM??
You weren’t the only one Jeff—did you see Tom Snoozi, whoops I mean Tom Souzzi? He was sawing logs.
And he wasn’t the only one.
I think those MAGA republicans had to keep clapping and standing up non stop so they could stay awake.
Mike Johnson: “If we lost the midterms — heaven forbid, if we lost the majority in the House — it would be the end of the Trump presidency in a real effect.”
is that a promise, Holy Mike? ….some real wisdom yes I did not say wisdumb, which there was way too much of last night, with applause meter which must be broken because it didn’t move from 0 all night!
he is #2 on the donnie replacement list
just wonderful, bad enough we've had to deal with donnie dikwit for the last 50 years and now we might have to deal with tattoo
with howdy doody ready to reign over the peanut gallery!
democrats better get their shit in order ... and that doesn't mean nominate AOC for the potus gig.
she will be a much more effective as a US SENATOR!
‘Heaven forbid’?! Holy Mike’s version of heaven, I’m sure, resembles a country club where women know their place and only the white…sorry right..people get in.
wisdumb lmao that is so very accurate!!!
whizz-dumb
To be fair, Donny wouldn't have lasted 30 minutes if he were watching his own address.
Adderall is good shit
Him and Junior... sampling the product too much...at least he got that deviated septum fixed....the Trump's may have had more plastic surgery than the Kardashians.
I think they're just mainlining coke into his veins at this point.
He also wouldn't have lasted 30 minutes without his diaper...
You made up for it with the TCM post 🤘
The only thing anyone will remember a year from now about last night is Al Green and his sign. Republicans trying to violently rip it away from him is all you need to know about the state of the union right now.

pssssssssssssst, the donkey boys and girls aren't ...
aren't ORGANIZED!
and STILL STUCK on the DNC OLD GUARD!
this country doesn't need leaders in my age group.
we are OK being on the council of elders.
WE NEED NEW BLOOD!
100% agree!
All the Dems should have been vigorously thrusting their middle fingers like that meme Jeff likes to use.
I agree with you on so many levels, (so many lockers, so little time) but consider this: The Dems have the political winds at their backs right now. We're mopping the floor at the state and federal levels in special elections. Our state is purple, so our Dem Senators and Reps need to stay in office, and in order to do that they need to anger as few people as possible. That means you George in Atlanta, and me, Leigh from Georgia.
Even if they are a buncha pu$$ies, would you vote for a Republican? I'd vote for cat poo before I'd vote for a Republican.
Pelosi had the brilliant idea for Democrats to wear white buttons in protest. Anyone care what for? Nope.
Sort of ambivalent about her. She engaged in meaningless attempted symbolism who only the 'true insiders' would get (appeals to the would-be Cool Kids Club). She was also an excellent street-fighter and would mop the floor with R's who dared cross her. Her snark was thermo-nuclear.
Enough? Oh hell no. But more than we have now, for damn sure.
Oh good, I seemed to notice most of the female Dems wore white, so white buttons on their lapels really stood out?? Right???
North Korea called,even they thought it was a little over the top.
I'll give him credit for one thing and one thing only; he spoke for almost 2 hours and didn't slur his words at least what I saw and listened to. After an hour and a half of it, I had enough, and it was time for bed. The whole thing was what I expected, a Trump Epstein rally and the cock sucking republicans ate it up along with our disgraced hockey team, fuck them and the gold shit they rode in on. Release the Epstein files.
I used to get a little angry being called a radical lunatic by an insurrectionist rapist,but now I just laugh because he's a rotting corpse waiting for the down escalator...
Bruce, that's a good way of looking at it and all the way to hell on that ride.
i couldn't understand a single word from his whatever
i gotta get new batteries for my hearing aids ... someday, HA!
You might want to wait awhile.🤔😂
Wonder what they pumped him full of?
CouchFuck nodded off a few times
I saw zero minutes. I did watch some of the alternative event – SO many black quilted parkas! There were some really good speakers though. I keep getting more and more impressive by Pramila Jayapal who I used to have a grudge against for encouraging people to boo Hillary Clinton. But it was really more Rashida Tlaib so I'll continue to despise her.
I slept. It was lovely :-)
Us libs in the future could hold an alternative event, like those turds did for Super Bowl halftime. Ours could have Springsteen and DeNiro, etc.
I am so happy to hear that you fell asleep and did not watch/listen to the whole thing. Although, how in the hell did you fall asleep listening to the noise that comes out of its mouth? I’d rather listen to Quint run his nails down a chalkboard over and over than listen to that 🍊💩👜’s voice.
I'd rather masturbate with a cheese grater.
🫨
I saw a female comedian, can't remember who, who trolled men by saying,
"What would I do if I had a penis for one day? I wouldn't masturbate because frankly, it's not as good. Sorry, guys." Huge laughter from the audience
I'm not sure whether it was on CNN or MS-NOW, as I was channel surfing about 2 hours before the Snore of the Union came on, but the anchor promised that, coming up next, the station fact-checker was going to fact check the speech before Donnie Demento even gave it, because everyone already knows that he will be saying the same old shit (well, she didn't use that word, but it's what she meant).
That might be the first sign that someone, somewhere, might be getting slightly closer to "what the fuck is wrong with you?"
that's what happens when you give a low energy speech. And a boring one.
Lucky you! I watched the whole damn thing and I'm pissed. This is why I have always "missed" the SOTU every year. That's two hours I'll never get back.
And I couldn't even read (a book) through it because I was yelling the whole time.
I was wondering if HE could somehow figure out how to fall asleep during the speech... inquiring scientist want to know...
Good for you!
I fell asleep-on the couch-about 30 minutes in.
I didn’t make it that long Jeff!!
Polymarket odds on Dems taking control of the House in the midterms are at 86% this morning … up from 80% before the speech.
there were two special elections in Pennsylvania yesterday where the Democratic candidate outperformed Kamala Harris by 20 points or more
I am so afraid that we won't get to vote. They see the handwriting on the wall. The Fascists see where this is going. What will he do? What will we do?
WHAT WON'T THEY DO? LET'S BE PREPARED, SCOUTS!!!
If they can find any way to prevent the midterms, you know they will. I wonder what the betting odds are?
i'm on point ...
People still have to do the "vote" part. Things seem to be too good, they forget they have to cast a ballot.
They will...maybe only 66% of them,but they will, adulting is hard, social media is easier.
We are sooooo ready!!
Can we please not normalize these betting markets?
We need both. Not controlling the Senate doesn't help the overall situation much. Especially if Trump could nominate another SC judge if one dies or retires.
Grateful for this community. It’s always a palate cleanse after eating this shit sandwich everyday.
I'm also grateful for this community
On behalf of your legion of readers and following fans, you are very deservingly welcome !!
David Skoglund: I do not ike your answer. I love it! Great line. You nailed this one!
🎯
Well said David!
Mark Wayne Mullin: too many names and not enough brain cells.
One of the worst Nazi MAGA bootlickers—besides Moses Mike Grindr Johnson.
He's another self-righteous, religiously corrupt, taint licking hypocrite who is a lot dumber than he thinks he is.
He’s a fucking plumber so unfortunately his taint is always showing 🤮 🤢 🤮
😂🫣
"who is a lot dumber than he thinks he is"
OMG I am so stealing that. 😂
Be my guest. That description applies to many over thar in delusional, dishonest sycophantic dumbshit land
what? oh krap! not another white christian nationalist ...
He's definitely joining the Tuberville school of politics.
Alabama’s next governor - I am fucked compounded hourly
I think Kate Ivey died 3 years ago,no one noticed.
Is this country MEGA-fucked by MAGA or what?
I think it might be like being sprayed by a skunk,it might take some time to get rid of the smell,but eventually you'll get there.
The firehose of bullshit was on full blast
Applauded by an adoring cast
They received him with elation
Ignoring his predation
But of those files we have not heard the last
I loved how he kept shaking his head at the Democrats for not cheering for him. “They’re not clapping” oh, and the tiny tear Erika Kirk wiped from her eye.
Erika had better hope there's no special hotter-than-normal region of hell for fake religious grifters who capitalize on tragedy
If there is such a Hell, it's about to get really crowded.
Amen! hahaha
When Couchfuck saw her he had to wipe his thigh with his pantleg
Yeah ; did everyone notice that ? . Last time they were on the same stage , I needed to flip the channel quickly so the grandchildren didn't see the stuff that went on .
*snort*
🤣
😂
I guess when he mentioned the Dow Bondi clapped...the only one... she's special.
Really? That is so funny.
FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS!
I guess about 50 Democrats didn't show, still pretty weak...but made it look like one of his rallies...empty seats.
More of them should have ditched the lie-fest. What a waste of time.
At least once Democrats should show some unity and all walk out...even prevent a quorum...and show they're not going to give up their lunch money,for at least one day.
If the rethugs try to censure Al Green again, NO FUCKING DEMS HAD BETTER VOTE IN FAVOR OF IT. Ten of them did the last time: Bera, Case, Costa, Gillen, Himes, Houlahan, Kaptur, Moskowitz, Perez, and Suozzi. FFS!
Wow . That sums it all up . You are the man .
Huzzah!!!
I didn’t watch it, but I’m dying to know who wore the most makeup: JD, Grindr Mike, or Trump’s hand?
😂😂😂
OMG 🤣👍
😂😂😂😂,you get 4 laughys...
Did not watch, waited for this!
now I have retroactive performance anxiety
Opposite “Gaslighting” they could have booked “Incredibly Strange Creatures” or “Scrotal Recall”.
Wag The Dog should play on a continual loop since it feels like that’s what we’re living through, one distraction after another to divert attention from, hum…what are they called. The Something-stein files?
YES! I have been saying this is Wag the Dog since 2016.
My husband and I watched it on Sunday, Sept 9. 2001
On Monday, Sep 10, there was a terrible economic report and,I said "Bush needs a war to distract from this." Wink, wink. The next day, everything changed.
At this point, I'd prefer some 'Scanners' action.
Both are perfect!!!!
Or “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”.
The DSM5 has to include that in their next update.
We could use a gazillion clones of you!!
🤣🤣🤣
I lasted about five minutes. Did watch Robert Di Niro and some others. Refreshing. Then I went to bed. From what I have read today it looks like the lying liar lied ad nauseam. You could have patched together 125 . . . 107!!! minutes(SORRY) of his other lying lies and gotten the same lying outcome.
I couldnt watch it. I mean, everyone knows it was going to be a glorified rally. I'm catching up with anything consequential here. And how about Spanberger!? 💙💙
If America does manage to save itself from fascism, it wont be because of anything done by Hakeem or Chuckles. I'm sick of their polite approach to losing democracy. Al Green is the hero!
Spanberger nailed it.
So many really decent Democrats...so many really awful Republicans.
He has been kicked out twice now.
Says Al: "Not impressed. Been kicked out of classier joints before!"
👏👏👏
At least in terms of duration, Spanberger aligned with the nanosecond attention span of the median or average room temperature IQ and literacy level of over 140 million American voters. This country is a composite “Dumb and Dumber”, its people in charge are a composite Beavis and Butthead. The Dems in Congress would be Wayne & Garth except that Canada dwarfs the intellect and integrity of this shithole.
the fact that every last Democrat didn't stand up and walk out the minute tangeranus started talking I swear to pete what is wrong with our party? they don't even try to fight back. Tlaib and Omar and Green are the only congresspeople that have a backbone. the rest are business as usualing us right into the graveyard.
Only 4 SCOTUS SCROTUMS showed up. That fat bitch MAGA cheerleader in the red dress who took up 3 seats next to them made up for the other 5. Did they serve Big Mac supersized extra value meals before the drivelfest?
Three scrotums: Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Boney Karret. The fourth was Elena Kagan, decidedly not a scrotum. The other three scrotes (Gorsuch, Alito, and Uncle Thomas) couldn't be bothered.
I saw an MTG interview yesterday,did she get some semblance of sanity back!!! WTF!!! It's like she got blasted with a Jewish Sanity Space Laser or something.
Tangeranus!! Love that! 🤣🤣
Glad to see Omar and Talib heckle the huckster.
Bravo to those who showed resistance. I just wish Dems had walked out one by one. Why don't they DO something? Why?
One by one would have been perfect . DT would have been distracted to the point that the Adderal would not help any longer .
they follow their overpaid consultants and donors advice
why? because most of them are cut from the same cloth ... red or blue and sometimes green.
very few politicians can stand on their own.
The SOTU should have been STFU.
💯 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The best part of last night was on the Jimmy Kimmel show when they AI'd Just Dumb Vance humping his chair behind Trump. I scared the dog I laughed so hard.
I love the poll this morning from CNN (lookout CNN!) that had his speech rated the lowest ever at 38%. I still will never understand how he gets that much support.
2 Dems won their state seats last night in PA to keep the majority there.
November can't come soon enough.
I will be early voting to replace MTG and if we can take her seat in this 70-30 district then the sky's the limit. Let's go!

Holy shit, I gotta go find that. I'll warn the cats. 😂
It's hillarious! And he shows it two different times.
“why does this fuckwaffle continue to get invited onto every show, week after week? he has absolutely nothing of value to say”
I’d suggest that’s precisely why they invite him on their shows: They know he’ll say something stupid, but that’s known as “giving good quote” — that is, saying stupid shit that will go viral BECAUSE it’s stupid shit and thus their faces and media logos will go viral, too, and that’s the name of the game.
Cha-ching!
Thank you Jeff.
The "SOTU" is a reminder of the failed news media landscape. "Can this speech make the pedophile criminal-elect Presidential?"
Sure. We'll dismiss and trivialize the lawlessness, corruption, cruelty, and incompetence if he can form a coherent sentence that isn't dripping in toxic and blatant lies.
You can go back to every campaign speech. Is this the one where it all turns around asks (enter any news organization's name here).
The media, the Roberts Court, Aileen Cannon, his billionaire supporters, his apologists and co-conspirators in the GOP are all accessories to this weakening and destruction of the United States. The State of the Union is they can all go to hell on the next SpaceX flight.

I watched 2 hours of the MoveOn/MeidasTouch People’s speeches…was good, but I couldn’t stay up for the rest of it…(getting old?! lol) Your summary is perfect Jeff—-thanks!
I watched it for a bit, too. I was disappointed. I wanted more substance, less rah-rah.
Thanks for taking one for the team. I caught one minute of it and the instant standing ovation he got from half the House for managing to spew out a lie was enough to make me sick. All I could think of was the victims in the Epstein files--those named and the countless many whom we never knew existed (and no longer exist)--and it just makes me sick. They know who's in there. They know HE's in there. And yet the dog and pony show must go on.
History will judge him unfairly but history will also wonder why the hell we aren't marching daily to burn it all to the ground.
I don’t think even MS Now flashed a camera on any Epstein/Trump victims in the gallery. Are Nazis managing them like CBS & CNN now , too?
Probably. The whole thing, and I mean the WHOLE thing, is set up to protect the powerful. Individual journalists might want to tell the real story, but their bosses, connected to power, do not.
I wanted to know that as well- it has me extremely concerned. They didn’t show the survivors.
I guess it was inevitable: came home from work and wife was watching it, and she wants to hear what he says and not me screaming in anguish. So I shut up and took it like a man. What you missed was the old pantsload revelling in gore: illegal immigrants, of course, doing the throat cutting and the shooting. That wakes up the creep—it was like Serutan for him.
Yes, that was noteworthy. He loves blood flowing down the aisle of helicopters but pilot carrying on anyway. Other people’s blood, of course.
People killed by illegal immigrants are more deserving of sympathy than people killed by US citizens. They are just as dead, though.
