Not to mention China owns (from a report by Fox (not so much) News a few years back) 97 PERCENT of the antibiotics and about 80 PERCENT of pharmaceutical ingredients used in American drugs. JFC JFC JFC
Trump is a fucking idiot and we are screwed. China also produces a whopping 70-80 PERCENT of Wal-Mart products! We are tied to China, hook line and sinker. NOT TO MENTION they own 9% of our national debt. Trump has no leverage and we have no material resources to produce half the things made in China that matter. I hope the American public wakes the hell up soon.
The Kremlin took a complete stunod…drilled the thought that tariffs are good for mother Russia and you, into his grey matter, not a thing can be done at this point Stephen!!
Between understanding that tariffs are actually taxes paid by consumers, and the lack of any economic knowledge of how markets work, keep ‘em coming Jeff!!
Oh fuck yes I’m tired of reading about them! These are the most ridiculous actions a POTUS could take and they are being praised as if they weren’t destroying the world’s economy. The idiot in charge just learned the word “tariff.” Understanding it comes later.
well, it was either write about tariffs or write about the innocent guy who Donny "accidentally" disappeared to the Salvadoran torture gulag, and is now defying a court order to bring him back. trust me, there's no funny to be mined from that one
HCR on 4/13/25. No promise, just a call for unity: The president of North America’s Building Trades Unions, Sean McGarvey, received a standing ovation when he said to a room full of his fellow union workers: “We need to make our voices heard. We’re not red, we’re not blue. We’re the building trades, the backbone of America. You want to build a $5 billion data center? Want more six-figure careers with health care, retirement, and no college debt? You don’t call Elon Musk, you call us!... And yeah, that means all of us. All of us. Including our brother [International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers] apprentice Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who we demand to be returned to us and his family now! Bring him home!”
Yes, it was very discouraging to see those boats with all that Chinese concrete on them waiting to be used on the new part of the Bay Bridge lying in the Bay when I crossed the bridge every day going to work in the city. This must have been during Bush II.
Every fucking day is surreal now. I feel murderous. But I would really like to see Lutnick tortured, hung up by his tiny ball sack upside down on the now doubled White House fence as a promise to Mussolini the rest of this insane administration. Especially Stephen Goebbels Miller, who has been fellating and advising evil to the incompetent thieving rapist felon racist misogynist Stinking Orange Diaper Load since 2015. Fuck the whole lot of them.
And he's Jewish. In rational thinking, you'd think he'd be compassionate about the suffering of others. Go figure. I think he hates himself. The GOP are masters at projection.
Oh, don't you EVER worry about using those terms to describe the indescribable! We ALL read Jeff's hilarious and profound descriptions of these fuckwits and rage inside wishing language would suffice - but even your mini-rant can't quite encompass what I 'really' want to scream at the top of my lungs. I've never been a screamer, though - abused kids occasionally lose that ability, and I'm one. INSIDE, though - every word you wrote resonated and my reaction was HELL, YEAH!
Kristi Noem should have her head shaved and be dressed in a baggy white overall for her next photo-op, in a prison of course but on the other side of the bars
Jeff, I deeply appreciate your ability to find anything at all funny about any of this. I need this morning fix of sardonic smiling before wandering around on the verge of tears for the rest of the day.
I’m always on the verge of tears these days, too. I saw a clip of Krasnov with that “president” from El Salvador, who was saying HE WON’T RETURN Abrego Garcia because “how can I smuggle a terrorist across the border” (or some such bullshit), and I’m ready to scream! I wish some people would snatch Bukele and hold him until they release Garcia! This Bukele guy is, like Krasnov, fluent in doublespeak and I’m so sick of their shit!
I watched the oval meeting and it sick, sick, sickened me to see the El Salvador dicktater tot smiling as he was explaining his reasoning while couch fucker Vance was about rolling on the floor laughing so hard like he just told the best knee slapping dad joke and Barbie blondie looking smug as ever while she threw her lies and the diaper guy smirking - so proud of his liars in charge. Sad part is if he gets back here they will be on his every move and disappear him again for any reason. He needs to be returned to another country that will actually protect him.
The GOP never gives up its dead. If he has died, it will never come out what happened - at least not in my lifetime. In a decent country, the Supreme Court would ORDER Trump to bring him home and when he didn't, he would be arrested and jailed for contempt. GOP just hopes this fades away. Just like other stories of people whose civil rights/lives have been violated. I bet almost all MAGA has never heard of him. Fox isn't having specials on the plight of Mr. Garcia. The Right doesn't care about minorities and now they don't care about the rest of us. A damaged Tesla gets more news coverage. I don't approve of violence to settle our differences, but a 20 year sentence for the guy in Vegas for torching unoccupied cars and no injuries to humans is totally ridiculous.
If there is no way for Trump to suffer any consequences for illegal acts and not obeying the Supreme Court, then we no longer live in a democracy; he is already above the law.
And remarkably little is being said about all the other guys who were disappeared into the Salvadoran gulag with no due process and for no good reason. Are any organizations paying attention to them?
This is only the beginning of the disappearing persons phenomenon, including American citizens who have spoken out against trump....all the democrats, actors, journalists, etc. who have written on not-twitter, threads, etc. I believe trump's team has been evaluating these folks (could be us) for a long time.
And it's so easy peasey. Elon knows the email I signed up with on Twitter. Elon now has access to the IRS. He knows the e-mail and phone number on my tax forms. A little cross referencing - Bada Bing Bada Boom! He now has my address. He can even ping my phone so the goons can scoop me up at any time. Scary fucking shit.
You understand that we are ALL at risk? Everyone who speaks out, everyone who refuses to bow down (remember goebbels/miller's insistence that 'every knee will bow to donald j. trump'?) I remember wanting to spit in that mf'rs face and say: NEVER MINE, you fucking creepy nosferatu! That murderous little nazi (some genes went awry, I'm convinced since his own grandmother survived the Holocaust - it's claimed). His own family disavow his pro-white supremacist/white power stance, but I digress: Everyone who voted for a Democrat on ANY ticket is at risk, in fact IF you didn't vote for donnydemento and are a republican YOU are at risk as well. We're ALL at risk: so what the fuck are we going to do about it? Sit around and just wait for them to come for us as individuals? OR are we going to realize there is STRENGTH in togetherness and stand the fuck UP?!
The conservative justices are just as corrupt as him, swimming in power, untouchable, gifts from the ultra wealthy seeking legal reach arounds, and financial perks. They also do not care what history will say about them. Douchebags all.
Personally, I think John Roberts is VERY unhappy about this - at this moment in time. HE knows that history will view this current SCOTUS as ineffectual and specifically weakened by frump and his/their stupid-azz decision. HE cares about 'his' court and reputation. I don't GAF about thomas and alito BUT the others outnumber them and my guess is that the rest would vote along with Roberts to right this wrong, even if only for their own interests (we know our three 'liberal-leaning' women would, possibly Coney-Barrett as well). Perhaps it's time to bring a new lawsuit about that case to his attention, see where the chips fall? He might surprise us?
Roberts is thoroughly committed to treason against the 1776 Revolution and everything we've built since. But he doesn't want anybody to say so out loud.
I also read posts by Seth Abramson on Substack. He wrote in detail about the lovely guy running El Salvador. Dictator Bukele, who is a guest at the WH today. It made me literally sick to my stomach what I read about this guy. Why aren't Latinos and others in the streets about Garcia? Is it a fear thing that they too will disappear and never be heard of again? Or since it's not happening to them right now, it's not important. Will never understand why minorities voted for this a-hole, especially Cubans in Florida and other Latinos. He's made it perfectly clear since he came down that elevator in 2015, that he is targeting people from Latin America. The ongoing anxiety about Trump never goes away. It's America now, version 2025. I fear that we will never see Garcia again.
Didn't think he would. Trump could get him on the next plane home if he chose to and he isn't. The government has already admitted they snatched him in error, but not returning him or having him disappear forever will cause more trouble and protests here later on than bringing him home now. That's why I think he's dead.
Why? What's in it for him? Well, if he thinks Abrego is a terrorist, I suggest a regiment of Marines to go in and pull him out. I think they'll be terrorists in a major way.
Hey! I have a suggestion! How's about a Congressional Delegation gets off their three-days-a-week-asses, grab a few giant C5-M cargo planes from Dover air base and head on down to El Salvador straight to the prison and get people returned today for legal DUE PROCESS OR ELSE Congress has the power to cut off the funding to the prison and out of the pocket of the douchebag President Bukele?!!, which obviously trickles down to the Stinking Orange Diaper Load.
Send:
Mike "Ima Christian. No, really" Johnson, Speaker of the House
Chuck "Huh? Where am I?" Schumer, Minority Speaker
Ron "What's the Game Plan?" Johnson
John "Yes, I speak in a ridiculous southern affectation" Kennedy
Jim "I didn't see any sexual abuse in the locker rooms" Jordan
The POS in the oval office just had the dictator from El Salvador. Refused to return an innocent man. Another middle finger to law order. Especially since the Supreme Court unanimously voted to have him returned. Never in my life. I’m so tired of the word unprecedented so let’s just call it what it is: Severe corruption. I just left a message for my senator. Get on the phone, people. It’s an authoritarian government 100%.I just left a message for my senator. The United States is in freefall.
Whoops! I just asked that in response to your comment above, before I read this one. Not sure which is more terrifying, given the historic tendency for trade wars to become hot wars, but screwing up fucking a chicken (pun intended) is definitely funnier.
It might be fun to expound upon the lunacy that this country is being run by a bunch of rabid racoons with blowtorches, and that, no we don't want to buy your debt. Can't sell your debt? Have to juice the interest rate and the value of your currency drops into the shitter? Too fucking bad. Have a nice day now.
I'm very concerned about Trump and Bondi flipping off the Supreme Court. At some point, the Supreme Court will have to make a stand or there will be no reason to have a Court.
Donnie dip shit can get the guy back in a heartbeat if he refuses to give that asshole any more money but he's up to his eyeballs in shit and can't see straight.
I felt a glimmer of hope when the diaper guy and his Barbie blonde sidekick defied the SCOTUS and thought maybe this is the “finally” moment we have all been waiting for. It was a 9-0 decision! I don’t know the legal rangling of the highest court in the country but you would think contempt would be a thing now - prison this time. Or are they going to wait for the bullet hole they shot in their foot to heal by giving him immunity before they really deal with all the word game bullshit. And the poor penguins! If they don’t pay the tariff’s I fear he will have them slaughtered, use their parts for grifts, and then mine the shit out of the island to perhaps find the metals China won’t sell to us anymore. We are so fucked!
Understanding? He has 'real' experts understand things for him. And they all tell him that whatever he wants to do this very instant is the RIGHT thing... Meanwhile, the IRS doesn't have enough staff to open the bag with your tax return in it. There apparently won't be a new Flu or COVID vaccine this year. He is firing the people who issue the short-term weather forecasts. And REAL experts are issuing warnings that he has driven staffing down at Social Security to the point that the system will fail. But, he is sure that in the long term, this will be good for the economy - big and beautiful..
Trump wants SS to fail. That is the plan. He hopes the old will die because no one wants to look at that stuff (OLD PEOPLE). LIKE HIM. HE IS MORE GROSS THAN ANYONE.
No Social Security, no Medicare, no Medicaid, no VA, no vaccines. It is designed to kill off all those old people whom the oligarchs think are just too expensive to keep alive.
I think they all, particularly Orange Foolius and RFK, Jr., have this belief that the saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is correct. They totally misunderstand Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest. The reason RFK, Jr. wants to let measles and other diseases run rampant is he believe that those who survive will pass their genes on to future generations who will be fitter and healthier. But again, genetics doesn't work like that. It's a crap shoot. Trumpty Dumpty is a big fan of the "race horse theory" which says that two winning race horses will produce winning race horses. But only one Triple Crown winner has ever sired a future Triple Crown winner and that was in 1930. While some of Secretariat's offspring won one or two of the Triple Crown races, none of them won the whole enchilada. But Trump believes this applies to humans as well. I use an old joke to disprove this theory. It goes, "Did you hear about the florist's children? One's a budding genius and the other's a blooming idiot."
They're only being praised by his lapdogs and shills, who then turn around praise his lifting of them. Wall St., biz, and normal people aren't praising them.
Not at all! I for one look forward, every day, to keeping up with the dizzying, interminable pinball game playing out in President Antichrist’s junkyard brain. It’s the first thing I do every morning, after waking up in a cold sweat wondering if this is the day all the rest of my meager retirement nest egg will disappear into the ether.
I call him Dumb Antichrist. I refuse to call him President because he is constitutionally ineligible for that (or any other office): the Presidency is vacant at present.
I'm adding dumb antchrist (never capitalized) AND president anichrist to my list although I'm more likely to alter that one to presidunce antichrist. I'm funny that way. ;)
These Rethuglican men are so effin' awful! Who the hell hurt them so badly that they need to act out like that and be such sociopaths? Peter Thiel, who is a married gay man, is responsible for bringing us Maybelline McCouchfucker.
I wonder if making it hard for married women to vote, as provided by the SAVE Act, is his idea? He thinks it was a shame women were given the vote in the first place. My mistake! Women Won the Vote, it wasn’t a gift.
I frequently turn off NPR in my car because I am sick of all the crappy news. But I do love to snicker when I read your news, Jeff. You are succinct and profane, which I love.
What blows my mind is how anyone on the right can hear all the schizophrenia, non-answers, and lies from trump's team and still support maga. I don't get it.
my magat neighbour (the one I've now given up on) - told me she doesn't watch Fox anymore. She switched to the others; Newsmax and Oan - much more her style. I suspect because fox actually has ONE woman who tries to fire back at the worst of the worst of their talking heads. Jessica? I've only caught her a couple of times when someone like the Meidas Touch or Brian Tyler Cohen runs a clip since I refuse to EVER have fox on my own teevee.
Don't forget Jimmy Kimmel whom frump HATES with a passion as well. When he read aloud frump's tweeting about him ONSTAGE at (was it last year's) Oscars, Jimmy quoted the dumb fuck and responded: 'isn't it past your jailtime'? Which got a HUGE laugh from the audience (and has been reposted, requoted ever since), making orange baby man RAGE against Jimmy. I've no doubt these late-night hosts who laugh at him are 'on the list' of American Citizens he wants 'disappeared'. Coincidentally, I just saw an instagram clip of a young woman IMMIGRATION Attorney being interviewed by Chris Jansing of MSNBC showing the letter she received from DHS ordering her to 'self-deport'. Problem is: she was born and bred right here in good ol' Amurrica and is a life-long American Citizen. She routinely gets these notices FOR her clients but this one is TO her! What was it he said to Bukele about having to build more prisons for 'the home-grown ones'? They're for US!
You know - a couple of years ago, most Americans probably didn't know what a tariff was. They probably still don't, but it's used at least 3 times in every sentence uttered by Donny C or one of his chickenfuckers.
The 'potato-potahto theory of economics' makes me yearn for Reagan's 'jellybean theory of economics'. Didn't have that on my bingo card. My prediction is over the next four years the only new manufacturing business coming to us will be our American Made CONCENTRATION CAMPS. Put a pin in this.
I guess there’s no way to make blob l’orange (credit to Anthony Davis) defying a Supreme Court order & renditioning people to a concentration/death prison/camp funny.
Jeff, I will continue to read anything you write! You’re keeping me sane. (And I agree there’s nothing funny to be mined from the innocent man being sent to the torture gulag, although if there were, you would be the one to do it!)
NO, NEVER! I'm with Susan and I'm saving these up to show my intransigent magat neighbour who continually asks for 'proof' 'If I don't see it with my own eyes' she claims. Zo...I can prove to her so much now, including that navarro invented his own pseudonym 'ron vara' (I mean seriously....he didn't think someone would see through that fuckery - OR did he imagine it was a 'clever' way to hide himself in plain sight, just as 'john barron' did for so many years?) I swear these stupid mf'rs now RUNNING our govt. need to be swatted on their behinds as they surely never were as nasty toddlers (and I'm opposed to spanking - except for this lot!) Thanks for so much fodder AND for 'they're pining for the fjords'. That laid me out! You nailed so many home-truths today (well, every day!)
When China, the country that pollutes our biosphere the most, steals the most valuable resources (that belong to all of us), denies human rights and abuses every animal on earth, when they, THEY are the good guys in this equation, the US is completely, totally, embarrassingly SCREWED.
I saw an interview with a guy probably from the Chinese govt., because he was scoffing at us. He was like, we have more people in our middle class than you have in your whole country, we have been around for 3000 (or whatever number he cited but it was in the thousands) years and you guys are 250 years old, we have more university STEM students than your entire college enrollment, etc., etc. He was sneering with contempt. Gee, thanks, President Dumbass, you are sure showing them.
John Oliver ran the clip of JD Vance saying "we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things made by those Chinese peasants" and all the uproar in China as it went viral, concluding with a Chinese tweet (or whatever they call it on their media) "Did he say Thank You for all the money we lent him?" to which Oliver says "Solid burn! American and Chinese people can unite in agreeing how much fun it is to dunk on that bitch."
It’s kind of tacit. Not passive aggressive, but tacit. Like junior is a tantrum-throwing addict, so ignore him, take all his toys and box them up and give ‘em to Goodwill, fix yourself a martini, just let him kick the floor and ignore him.
well, like ALL world leaders, China's Xi is light years smarter than emperor bloatus, and will not be bullied by that sack of raw sewage, hence 'Murica getting chicken fucked!
As well they should. All of this, if we survive, is going to take years to fix. In the mean time, we should not lift one finger to help any one in this administration or any Republican.
If these fucking morons don’t understand tariffs, does anyone think they understand letters of credit/debit between the banks of importers and exporters, pro-forma invoices including tariffs, tariffs added to landed cost of goods, freight forwarding documents, etc.
None of those morons READ ANYTHING, they just burble out of their anus mouths.
How would you like to be a corporate financial functionary configuring pricing conditions in your ERP systems to include tariffs, then having to roll back said configuration one hour later because dementia Donny’s turds are crescent shaped rather than straight (in his diaper of course).
This is financial masturbation akin to Matt Gaetz at a high school cheerleading competition.
Yup, the epitome of dumb and dumber. Bazzaro and Fucknik are as clueless as Dump and their daily asinine gibberish should make the front page news somewhere. In the meantime, the tariff turd waits for that phone call that will never happen.
Speaking of factories, how in the world do Navarro and Nutlick and all these who act like they know about economics expect us to "bring manufacturing back to the US" with the snap of a finger? Factories don't spring up overnight. It takes years. Such bullshit.
I mean, we do have to wonder when our two-faced shitwaffle president will claim he'll make nice with Xi, despite actively torpedoing relations between the world's largest economies. Meanwhile, we consumers are left holding their breath, wondering when this economic Russian roulette ends. Will it? yeah, when Donny ShitForBrains isnt in that office anymore. Thats when.
I nearly lost my mind working in an electronics factory in the seventies, making tiny resistors, 3 or 4 HUNDRED at a time. I got Bursitis in my shoulder & had no health insurance, so I quit after 2 years .As a creative person, it was hell.
They'll have to cross the border and compete with Mexicans for those assembly jobs in the maquilladoras, massive plants that sprang up through U.S. and international investment during NAFTA.
Did you have to use toxic chemicals to keep them clean, like MEK? My husband was an optical machinist, was told he didn't need protective goggles, and still has migraines today (only 40 years later.)
Not then, but when I worked making eyeglass lenses. I didn't last a week because the chemicals burned my hands.We wore white cotton gloves that we had to change constantly. They were useless. I feel for you & your husband. 🫂
Indeed. I’d also like to check the accuracy of the scale used to weigh him on Friday during his medical. Apparently he lost 20 lbs since his last one during his previous tenure. Who else is not naive enough to believe this?
His fat greasy little thumbprints are all over the medical report released Sunday, which referenced his "frequent victories in golf events" as evidence of his fitness to serve as commander in chief. He said the exam showed a "good heart, a good soul, very good soul." Sure, that's what all our medical reports look like, what's not to trust?
Well i hope when he said “a good heart” Dumb Donny Doofus was referring to his heart physically- cause in no fucking way does he have a heart - a compassionate
heart- cause he HAS NO COMPASSION.
He’s a cold and heartless sub human cretin who should be kept away from all other human beings.
What would you expect to see, Suki? There are some real possibilities:
Bobby’s Brainworm brother, munching away
Spiders spinning webs at a feverish pace
80 year old hamsters on the wheel gasping for air
But the stench, the rot, the fetid grossness of the insides of AnusMouthPantLoad are not to be trifled with. Airtight hazmat suits are recommended before you pop the top on that big, fat pumpkin head.
If you devote your time and energy accumulating money, you can be a billionaire. But if there's one thing these jagoffs have demonstrated, you don't have to be smart.
He brought them on for their singular desire to kiss his ass and their unparalleled aptitude for unashamed, unrepentant, blatant lying. The fact that the are incompetent chicken fuckers is wholly beside the point.
Does anybody remember when Pres. Biden signed a law to help America start manufacturing computer chips here in the US so that we wouldn't get caught short like we did with supply chain issues during covid? Did it roil international markets to the point where Japan started dumping Treasury bonds? Did it piss off any of our allies? No. THAT's how you bring manufacturing back in the US.
For that matter, does anyone remember how Pres. Biden deported an average of 57K people per month, compared to Dumpy's 37,660 in his first month? Did Pres. Biden ever deport people without due process? Did he deport people who hadn't committed any crimes at all? Did he deport anybody who had been specifically told by a judge that they would not be deported because their life was at risk if they went back to El Salvador?
Did Pres. Biden start invading middle schools, demanding to see children suspected of being here illegally? Did he allow ICE to stalk people in churches? Did the head of his CBP start posing with guns and $60K Rolexes, in tight white t-shirts?
After Hamas invaded Israel and people began protesting against both Hamas and Israel, did Pres. Biden deport anyone here legally because they protested something he disagreed with? Did he snatch students off the streets using masked men (or women)?
What never ceases to amaze me is the utter contempt everyone in that administration (from Donny on down) has for anyone who questions them on any policy. I know that's a pretty broad statement.
"How dare you question the wisdom of Dear Leader?" or
"It's too complicated - don't worry your little working class head about it."
David, And trump covers his hideous mistakes by pretending Xi or any other country came to the table to negotiate ANYTHING! EU, other allies and Japan were meeting among themselves to give it to trump. Trump is the one who had his chain yanked! 😄
I know what that orange dildo of a president is going to do to get China for holding back those shipments of magnets...he's going to re-route all that glorious water from Canada and get those GOD DAMNED MAGNETS WET!! Everybody knows that magnets don't work when they're wet, right?
And isn't ALL of this to influence the markets to pull of the REAL grift of insider trading? Didn't our very own orange Pol Pot admit that the other day with his "and he made XXX billion" statements? But I'm sure the FCC has been kneecapped so there will be no investigation there. And as much as ALL of this sucks, I hope the people who voted for him are screwed the hardest by all of it - the food, clothing, goods/services price increases AND the job losses. And does NO ONE realize that the ability to suddenly create manufacturing in our country requires shit from CHINA to do so? And millions of dollars and years to create such an infrastructure? I'm not even a business person and I get this shit.
is everyone tired of reading about tariffs yet? I hope not ...
Nah... it's just further evidence of how incompetent these people are...if nothing else, maybe the public will actually learn what a tariff is. 🤦♀️
Maybe the public will actually vote the republican assholes out of office.
It would be nice if the public learned what a tariff is; our fucked-up leader doesn't have a clue.
Well then, no one tell him. He hasn't a clue, regardless. Let him wallow in his ignorance.
WRT to Howard Lutnick, it's plainly evident that the wrong Lutnick died on 9/11.
What? Too soon?
Which public? Not in this country, for sure! Greenland maybe.
I don't think the penguins want anything to do with it. They just want cold hard fish.
Good one!!!!
HAHAH!
😂😂😂
😆😆😆
(1) China owns $759 BILLION of American mortgage backed securities; that's a big reason for Xi to never call. and
(2) China's trade with the US is 3% of its entire GDP. Another reason for Xi to never call.
Betcha no one in the White House bothered to look any of that up. Not that Whiner in Chief would have listened...
Not to mention China owns (from a report by Fox (not so much) News a few years back) 97 PERCENT of the antibiotics and about 80 PERCENT of pharmaceutical ingredients used in American drugs. JFC JFC JFC
Trump is a fucking idiot and we are screwed. China also produces a whopping 70-80 PERCENT of Wal-Mart products! We are tied to China, hook line and sinker. NOT TO MENTION they own 9% of our national debt. Trump has no leverage and we have no material resources to produce half the things made in China that matter. I hope the American public wakes the hell up soon.
Not to mention that China has bought a mountain of T-bills....
Any bets on how long that will take?
Not even with his last, dying breath will he understand a damn thing.
Too long. As the Germans say, "the train has already left the station."
Perfect. HIS train 'left the station' decades ago!
NIcht nur die Deutsche.
The Kremlin took a complete stunod…drilled the thought that tariffs are good for mother Russia and you, into his grey matter, not a thing can be done at this point Stephen!!
You MUST be a NY'er to use 'stunod' so accurately, no? ;)
Between understanding that tariffs are actually taxes paid by consumers, and the lack of any economic knowledge of how markets work, keep ‘em coming Jeff!!
I highly doubt it but good thought!
Oh fuck yes I’m tired of reading about them! These are the most ridiculous actions a POTUS could take and they are being praised as if they weren’t destroying the world’s economy. The idiot in charge just learned the word “tariff.” Understanding it comes later.
well, it was either write about tariffs or write about the innocent guy who Donny "accidentally" disappeared to the Salvadoran torture gulag, and is now defying a court order to bring him back. trust me, there's no funny to be mined from that one
The Building Trades Union is going to stop ALL US building if he is not returned. That means no prisons or concentration camps too.
This is good, Ransom. Do you have a link?
seriously, that I could write about. got link?
HCR on 4/13/25. No promise, just a call for unity: The president of North America’s Building Trades Unions, Sean McGarvey, received a standing ovation when he said to a room full of his fellow union workers: “We need to make our voices heard. We’re not red, we’re not blue. We’re the building trades, the backbone of America. You want to build a $5 billion data center? Want more six-figure careers with health care, retirement, and no college debt? You don’t call Elon Musk, you call us!... And yeah, that means all of us. All of us. Including our brother [International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers] apprentice Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who we demand to be returned to us and his family now! Bring him home!”
We get a lot of concrete from China
Yes, it was very discouraging to see those boats with all that Chinese concrete on them waiting to be used on the new part of the Bay Bridge lying in the Bay when I crossed the bridge every day going to work in the city. This must have been during Bush II.
Every fucking day is surreal now. I feel murderous. But I would really like to see Lutnick tortured, hung up by his tiny ball sack upside down on the now doubled White House fence as a promise to Mussolini the rest of this insane administration. Especially Stephen Goebbels Miller, who has been fellating and advising evil to the incompetent thieving rapist felon racist misogynist Stinking Orange Diaper Load since 2015. Fuck the whole lot of them.
Well said! Miller/Goebbels may be the most deeply sick creep amongst them.
And he's Jewish. In rational thinking, you'd think he'd be compassionate about the suffering of others. Go figure. I think he hates himself. The GOP are masters at projection.
He is a self hating Jew. He's a bad seed. Even his family hates him. How could they not?
He most definitely does.
I honestly think Miller stares at those pictures of the inmates in the Salvadoran concentration camp and pleasures himself!
Adolf Eichmann used to do that. Only he pleasured himself staring at the prisoners themselves. God, how do I know that?
Love your flow, DK.
Thank you, Walt. I am angry and distraught, and sometimes am embarrassed by my tone. I really needed your comment right now.
Oh, don't you EVER worry about using those terms to describe the indescribable! We ALL read Jeff's hilarious and profound descriptions of these fuckwits and rage inside wishing language would suffice - but even your mini-rant can't quite encompass what I 'really' want to scream at the top of my lungs. I've never been a screamer, though - abused kids occasionally lose that ability, and I'm one. INSIDE, though - every word you wrote resonated and my reaction was HELL, YEAH!
Please don't worry about your tone. This is a safe space. For now.
Kristi Noem should have her head shaved and be dressed in a baggy white overall for her next photo-op, in a prison of course but on the other side of the bars
Jeff, I deeply appreciate your ability to find anything at all funny about any of this. I need this morning fix of sardonic smiling before wandering around on the verge of tears for the rest of the day.
I’m always on the verge of tears these days, too. I saw a clip of Krasnov with that “president” from El Salvador, who was saying HE WON’T RETURN Abrego Garcia because “how can I smuggle a terrorist across the border” (or some such bullshit), and I’m ready to scream! I wish some people would snatch Bukele and hold him until they release Garcia! This Bukele guy is, like Krasnov, fluent in doublespeak and I’m so sick of their shit!
I watched the oval meeting and it sick, sick, sickened me to see the El Salvador dicktater tot smiling as he was explaining his reasoning while couch fucker Vance was about rolling on the floor laughing so hard like he just told the best knee slapping dad joke and Barbie blondie looking smug as ever while she threw her lies and the diaper guy smirking - so proud of his liars in charge. Sad part is if he gets back here they will be on his every move and disappear him again for any reason. He needs to be returned to another country that will actually protect him.
Me too. I wish there was an antidote to take for Trump. Like an anti-Trump pill that would erase anxiety and dread for the future.
There is a pill but it would kill you.
Name of the pill, please? Asking for a friend.
I think Dr. Kevorkian used to prescribe that one...
Well, "chicken fuckers" did elicit a small smile. There's that.
Shoot it straight into my veins.
I fear that poor guy has already been tortured and killed. How long will they be able to keep that quiet?
The GOP never gives up its dead. If he has died, it will never come out what happened - at least not in my lifetime. In a decent country, the Supreme Court would ORDER Trump to bring him home and when he didn't, he would be arrested and jailed for contempt. GOP just hopes this fades away. Just like other stories of people whose civil rights/lives have been violated. I bet almost all MAGA has never heard of him. Fox isn't having specials on the plight of Mr. Garcia. The Right doesn't care about minorities and now they don't care about the rest of us. A damaged Tesla gets more news coverage. I don't approve of violence to settle our differences, but a 20 year sentence for the guy in Vegas for torching unoccupied cars and no injuries to humans is totally ridiculous.
If there is no way for Trump to suffer any consequences for illegal acts and not obeying the Supreme Court, then we no longer live in a democracy; he is already above the law.
That's more than a little possible
I think that may be the reason they're stalling on this.
My fear also. Like, about the day the courts said “Return him!” if not before.
As long as they keep trumps physical quiet...forever. we didn't get the report from his first 4 years.
Sadly, that is what I think has happened. And it's the real reason they are saying he can't be returned.
And remarkably little is being said about all the other guys who were disappeared into the Salvadoran gulag with no due process and for no good reason. Are any organizations paying attention to them?
This is only the beginning of the disappearing persons phenomenon, including American citizens who have spoken out against trump....all the democrats, actors, journalists, etc. who have written on not-twitter, threads, etc. I believe trump's team has been evaluating these folks (could be us) for a long time.
And it's so easy peasey. Elon knows the email I signed up with on Twitter. Elon now has access to the IRS. He knows the e-mail and phone number on my tax forms. A little cross referencing - Bada Bing Bada Boom! He now has my address. He can even ping my phone so the goons can scoop me up at any time. Scary fucking shit.
Tru dat.
You understand that we are ALL at risk? Everyone who speaks out, everyone who refuses to bow down (remember goebbels/miller's insistence that 'every knee will bow to donald j. trump'?) I remember wanting to spit in that mf'rs face and say: NEVER MINE, you fucking creepy nosferatu! That murderous little nazi (some genes went awry, I'm convinced since his own grandmother survived the Holocaust - it's claimed). His own family disavow his pro-white supremacist/white power stance, but I digress: Everyone who voted for a Democrat on ANY ticket is at risk, in fact IF you didn't vote for donnydemento and are a republican YOU are at risk as well. We're ALL at risk: so what the fuck are we going to do about it? Sit around and just wait for them to come for us as individuals? OR are we going to realize there is STRENGTH in togetherness and stand the fuck UP?!
United we resist. Divided we get picked off one by one.
Like the gay barber/ make up artist, he's probably been raped to death.
Mafia Don is thumbing his nose AND flipping the bird 🖕at SCOTUS! I WONDER HOW THEY FEEL NOW ABOUT GIVING HIM IMMUNITY!!
The conservative justices are just as corrupt as him, swimming in power, untouchable, gifts from the ultra wealthy seeking legal reach arounds, and financial perks. They also do not care what history will say about them. Douchebags all.
Personally, I think John Roberts is VERY unhappy about this - at this moment in time. HE knows that history will view this current SCOTUS as ineffectual and specifically weakened by frump and his/their stupid-azz decision. HE cares about 'his' court and reputation. I don't GAF about thomas and alito BUT the others outnumber them and my guess is that the rest would vote along with Roberts to right this wrong, even if only for their own interests (we know our three 'liberal-leaning' women would, possibly Coney-Barrett as well). Perhaps it's time to bring a new lawsuit about that case to his attention, see where the chips fall? He might surprise us?
Roberts is thoroughly committed to treason against the 1776 Revolution and everything we've built since. But he doesn't want anybody to say so out loud.
I also read posts by Seth Abramson on Substack. He wrote in detail about the lovely guy running El Salvador. Dictator Bukele, who is a guest at the WH today. It made me literally sick to my stomach what I read about this guy. Why aren't Latinos and others in the streets about Garcia? Is it a fear thing that they too will disappear and never be heard of again? Or since it's not happening to them right now, it's not important. Will never understand why minorities voted for this a-hole, especially Cubans in Florida and other Latinos. He's made it perfectly clear since he came down that elevator in 2015, that he is targeting people from Latin America. The ongoing anxiety about Trump never goes away. It's America now, version 2025. I fear that we will never see Garcia again.
And I just got a breaking news alert that Bukele won't return Mr. Garcia.
Didn't think he would. Trump could get him on the next plane home if he chose to and he isn't. The government has already admitted they snatched him in error, but not returning him or having him disappear forever will cause more trouble and protests here later on than bringing him home now. That's why I think he's dead.
Either he’s dead or they don’t want him talking about the conditions at CECOT.
Why? What's in it for him? Well, if he thinks Abrego is a terrorist, I suggest a regiment of Marines to go in and pull him out. I think they'll be terrorists in a major way.
I said this elsewhere today, but here goes:
Hey! I have a suggestion! How's about a Congressional Delegation gets off their three-days-a-week-asses, grab a few giant C5-M cargo planes from Dover air base and head on down to El Salvador straight to the prison and get people returned today for legal DUE PROCESS OR ELSE Congress has the power to cut off the funding to the prison and out of the pocket of the douchebag President Bukele?!!, which obviously trickles down to the Stinking Orange Diaper Load.
Send:
Mike "Ima Christian. No, really" Johnson, Speaker of the House
Chuck "Huh? Where am I?" Schumer, Minority Speaker
Ron "What's the Game Plan?" Johnson
John "Yes, I speak in a ridiculous southern affectation" Kennedy
Jim "I didn't see any sexual abuse in the locker rooms" Jordan
Marjorie Taylor "Trailer Park" Greene
and for muscle, Nancy Pelosi
Put Noem in jail for contempt of court. Or Rubio. I don’t care.
Both would be fine.
The POS in the oval office just had the dictator from El Salvador. Refused to return an innocent man. Another middle finger to law order. Especially since the Supreme Court unanimously voted to have him returned. Never in my life. I’m so tired of the word unprecedented so let’s just call it what it is: Severe corruption. I just left a message for my senator. Get on the phone, people. It’s an authoritarian government 100%.I just left a message for my senator. The United States is in freefall.
I call it criminality.
Whoops! I just asked that in response to your comment above, before I read this one. Not sure which is more terrifying, given the historic tendency for trade wars to become hot wars, but screwing up fucking a chicken (pun intended) is definitely funnier.
It might be fun to expound upon the lunacy that this country is being run by a bunch of rabid racoons with blowtorches, and that, no we don't want to buy your debt. Can't sell your debt? Have to juice the interest rate and the value of your currency drops into the shitter? Too fucking bad. Have a nice day now.
I'm very concerned about Trump and Bondi flipping off the Supreme Court. At some point, the Supreme Court will have to make a stand or there will be no reason to have a Court.
That point is in the rear-view mirror and receding rapidly.
So true. Not amusing at all.
That "accidental" disappearing and defying of a court order to bring him back is what's known as "setting legal precedent" in today's White House...
WE ARE PAYING EL SALVADORE TO HOUSE THESE PEOPLE!
Donnie dip shit can get the guy back in a heartbeat if he refuses to give that asshole any more money but he's up to his eyeballs in shit and can't see straight.
I felt a glimmer of hope when the diaper guy and his Barbie blonde sidekick defied the SCOTUS and thought maybe this is the “finally” moment we have all been waiting for. It was a 9-0 decision! I don’t know the legal rangling of the highest court in the country but you would think contempt would be a thing now - prison this time. Or are they going to wait for the bullet hole they shot in their foot to heal by giving him immunity before they really deal with all the word game bullshit. And the poor penguins! If they don’t pay the tariff’s I fear he will have them slaughtered, use their parts for grifts, and then mine the shit out of the island to perhaps find the metals China won’t sell to us anymore. We are so fucked!
Understanding? He has 'real' experts understand things for him. And they all tell him that whatever he wants to do this very instant is the RIGHT thing... Meanwhile, the IRS doesn't have enough staff to open the bag with your tax return in it. There apparently won't be a new Flu or COVID vaccine this year. He is firing the people who issue the short-term weather forecasts. And REAL experts are issuing warnings that he has driven staffing down at Social Security to the point that the system will fail. But, he is sure that in the long term, this will be good for the economy - big and beautiful..
Trump wants SS to fail. That is the plan. He hopes the old will die because no one wants to look at that stuff (OLD PEOPLE). LIKE HIM. HE IS MORE GROSS THAN ANYONE.
No Social Security, no Medicare, no Medicaid, no VA, no vaccines. It is designed to kill off all those old people whom the oligarchs think are just too expensive to keep alive.
I think they all, particularly Orange Foolius and RFK, Jr., have this belief that the saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is correct. They totally misunderstand Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest. The reason RFK, Jr. wants to let measles and other diseases run rampant is he believe that those who survive will pass their genes on to future generations who will be fitter and healthier. But again, genetics doesn't work like that. It's a crap shoot. Trumpty Dumpty is a big fan of the "race horse theory" which says that two winning race horses will produce winning race horses. But only one Triple Crown winner has ever sired a future Triple Crown winner and that was in 1930. While some of Secretariat's offspring won one or two of the Triple Crown races, none of them won the whole enchilada. But Trump believes this applies to humans as well. I use an old joke to disprove this theory. It goes, "Did you hear about the florist's children? One's a budding genius and the other's a blooming idiot."
And the old people want him to die.
😃
They're only being praised by his lapdogs and shills, who then turn around praise his lifting of them. Wall St., biz, and normal people aren't praising them.
Dubious of “later” Walt… let’s just say never!!
Not at all! I for one look forward, every day, to keeping up with the dizzying, interminable pinball game playing out in President Antichrist’s junkyard brain. It’s the first thing I do every morning, after waking up in a cold sweat wondering if this is the day all the rest of my meager retirement nest egg will disappear into the ether.
"President Antichrist" has been placed onto my long list of T💩p monikers. Thank you for your contribution!
I call him Dumb Antichrist. I refuse to call him President because he is constitutionally ineligible for that (or any other office): the Presidency is vacant at present.
I'm adding dumb antchrist (never capitalized) AND president anichrist to my list although I'm more likely to alter that one to presidunce antichrist. I'm funny that way. ;)
I read that Peter Thiel or another of the tech billionaires has decided the Anti-Christ is Greta Thunberg.
These Rethuglican men are so effin' awful! Who the hell hurt them so badly that they need to act out like that and be such sociopaths? Peter Thiel, who is a married gay man, is responsible for bringing us Maybelline McCouchfucker.
I wonder if making it hard for married women to vote, as provided by the SAVE Act, is his idea? He thinks it was a shame women were given the vote in the first place. My mistake! Women Won the Vote, it wasn’t a gift.
Same shit, different millennia.
I am too busy laughing that the fucking tariffs are not even being collected—if that kind of fuckery keeps happening-keep the tariff talk going!!!
Probably because DOGE broke the software.
I frequently turn off NPR in my car because I am sick of all the crappy news. But I do love to snicker when I read your news, Jeff. You are succinct and profane, which I love.
What blows my mind is how anyone on the right can hear all the schizophrenia, non-answers, and lies from trump's team and still support maga. I don't get it.
They all watch Faux news :(
my magat neighbour (the one I've now given up on) - told me she doesn't watch Fox anymore. She switched to the others; Newsmax and Oan - much more her style. I suspect because fox actually has ONE woman who tries to fire back at the worst of the worst of their talking heads. Jessica? I've only caught her a couple of times when someone like the Meidas Touch or Brian Tyler Cohen runs a clip since I refuse to EVER have fox on my own teevee.
I’m only tired of it because it’s so fucking ridiculous to need to talk/hear about them. But I will never tire of reading about “chickenfuckery”! 😂😂😂
Jeff, you remind me of two things.
The first is Cassandra, the Lady Prophet who tried to warn Troy about the shit the Greaks were going to do, but no one would listen to her.
The second is the movie "Little Big Man” where the old chief prays for Dustin Hoffman: “Take care of my son here. See that he doesn't go crazy."
Get Miss Spouse to kiss your head and tell you it will all be better.
I must say Donnie is creating secure American jobs, for you and for Stephen Colbert.
Don't forget Jimmy Kimmel whom frump HATES with a passion as well. When he read aloud frump's tweeting about him ONSTAGE at (was it last year's) Oscars, Jimmy quoted the dumb fuck and responded: 'isn't it past your jailtime'? Which got a HUGE laugh from the audience (and has been reposted, requoted ever since), making orange baby man RAGE against Jimmy. I've no doubt these late-night hosts who laugh at him are 'on the list' of American Citizens he wants 'disappeared'. Coincidentally, I just saw an instagram clip of a young woman IMMIGRATION Attorney being interviewed by Chris Jansing of MSNBC showing the letter she received from DHS ordering her to 'self-deport'. Problem is: she was born and bred right here in good ol' Amurrica and is a life-long American Citizen. She routinely gets these notices FOR her clients but this one is TO her! What was it he said to Bukele about having to build more prisons for 'the home-grown ones'? They're for US!
You know - a couple of years ago, most Americans probably didn't know what a tariff was. They probably still don't, but it's used at least 3 times in every sentence uttered by Donny C or one of his chickenfuckers.
I am adopting ‘chicken fuckers’ as my new terminology when referring to Maggats from now on.
It rolls off the tongue so nicely!
No! No! Let the stupidity continue! More grist for the humor mill.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5zQ0WewZY50
Thank you. This was hilarious and poignant. A must watch.
He is a great explainer.
Hilarious, thank you
The 'potato-potahto theory of economics' makes me yearn for Reagan's 'jellybean theory of economics'. Didn't have that on my bingo card. My prediction is over the next four years the only new manufacturing business coming to us will be our American Made CONCENTRATION CAMPS. Put a pin in this.
I guess there’s no way to make blob l’orange (credit to Anthony Davis) defying a Supreme Court order & renditioning people to a concentration/death prison/camp funny.
"blob l’orange" has been placed onto my long list of T💩p monikers. Thank you for your contribution!
Jeff, I will continue to read anything you write! You’re keeping me sane. (And I agree there’s nothing funny to be mined from the innocent man being sent to the torture gulag, although if there were, you would be the one to do it!)
I haven’t had another stroke yet, so… ummm, nah..
NO, NEVER! I'm with Susan and I'm saving these up to show my intransigent magat neighbour who continually asks for 'proof' 'If I don't see it with my own eyes' she claims. Zo...I can prove to her so much now, including that navarro invented his own pseudonym 'ron vara' (I mean seriously....he didn't think someone would see through that fuckery - OR did he imagine it was a 'clever' way to hide himself in plain sight, just as 'john barron' did for so many years?) I swear these stupid mf'rs now RUNNING our govt. need to be swatted on their behinds as they surely never were as nasty toddlers (and I'm opposed to spanking - except for this lot!) Thanks for so much fodder AND for 'they're pining for the fjords'. That laid me out! You nailed so many home-truths today (well, every day!)
Doesn’t matter because they’ll be in the news for awhile. I’d rather read about them here than watch MSM.
china is really good at telling America to go fuck itself
https://bsky.app/profile/shannonrwatts.bsky.social/post/3lmrrnlmqjk2u
When China, the country that pollutes our biosphere the most, steals the most valuable resources (that belong to all of us), denies human rights and abuses every animal on earth, when they, THEY are the good guys in this equation, the US is completely, totally, embarrassingly SCREWED.
I saw an interview with a guy probably from the Chinese govt., because he was scoffing at us. He was like, we have more people in our middle class than you have in your whole country, we have been around for 3000 (or whatever number he cited but it was in the thousands) years and you guys are 250 years old, we have more university STEM students than your entire college enrollment, etc., etc. He was sneering with contempt. Gee, thanks, President Dumbass, you are sure showing them.
John Oliver ran the clip of JD Vance saying "we borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things made by those Chinese peasants" and all the uproar in China as it went viral, concluding with a Chinese tweet (or whatever they call it on their media) "Did he say Thank You for all the money we lent him?" to which Oliver says "Solid burn! American and Chinese people can unite in agreeing how much fun it is to dunk on that bitch."
So much winning! I’m exhausted from all this winning.
It’s kind of tacit. Not passive aggressive, but tacit. Like junior is a tantrum-throwing addict, so ignore him, take all his toys and box them up and give ‘em to Goodwill, fix yourself a martini, just let him kick the floor and ignore him.
well, like ALL world leaders, China's Xi is light years smarter than emperor bloatus, and will not be bullied by that sack of raw sewage, hence 'Murica getting chicken fucked!
Unfortunately true, Mike. We are being led around by one of the least qualified people on the planet for any task but conning or criming.
As well they should. All of this, if we survive, is going to take years to fix. In the mean time, we should not lift one finger to help any one in this administration or any Republican.
"no tariffs are being collected by the U.S. government for the time being." JFC! 🤦♀️
I'm clinging to what little sanity I have left. The dumb runs so deep. Between Lutnick and Navarro, there isnt one functioning brain cell.
If these fucking morons don’t understand tariffs, does anyone think they understand letters of credit/debit between the banks of importers and exporters, pro-forma invoices including tariffs, tariffs added to landed cost of goods, freight forwarding documents, etc.
None of those morons READ ANYTHING, they just burble out of their anus mouths.
But if the goal is chaos, less *brain cells* are a feature then?
How would you like to be a corporate financial functionary configuring pricing conditions in your ERP systems to include tariffs, then having to roll back said configuration one hour later because dementia Donny’s turds are crescent shaped rather than straight (in his diaper of course).
This is financial masturbation akin to Matt Gaetz at a high school cheerleading competition.
LOL! And true.
You got it, Sunny!
Yup, the epitome of dumb and dumber. Bazzaro and Fucknik are as clueless as Dump and their daily asinine gibberish should make the front page news somewhere. In the meantime, the tariff turd waits for that phone call that will never happen.
"Bazzaro and Fucknik" 👏👏👏👏👏👏
You have even a morsel of sanity left?
That’s more than most of us!
I fear that one is WAY too generous.😂😂
LOL!!
1. The Orange Fuckwit owes us all new heads since he keeps exploding ours. When will that new head factory be completed?
2. Donny’s tariffs are like picking daisies: they’re on again, they’re off, they’re on again, they’re off, they’re on again, they’re off……
3. Or maybe they’re akin to Monopoly: Do not pass go, do not collect tariff money.
The new “Head Factory” is running behind schedule, Kay-El. Lack of quality parts available.
Speaking of factories, how in the world do Navarro and Nutlick and all these who act like they know about economics expect us to "bring manufacturing back to the US" with the snap of a finger? Factories don't spring up overnight. It takes years. Such bullshit.
And automation takes most 'jobs' away.
Years??!but, but, we need them now!!!!
They must believe in factory seeds. Just poke 'em in the ground, water 'em, and jump back before they spring up fully operational. Voila!
Chia factory kit.😂😂
Makes a great gift!
I think someone gave Tubgirl a clapper and he decided every problem on the planet could be fixed so easily. Clap on...clap off...
Possibly a clapper.. but was hoping someone gave him THE CLAP!
Tax on! Tax off!
You understand the potato potahto doctoral level theory!!
🥳😂
I mean, we do have to wonder when our two-faced shitwaffle president will claim he'll make nice with Xi, despite actively torpedoing relations between the world's largest economies. Meanwhile, we consumers are left holding their breath, wondering when this economic Russian roulette ends. Will it? yeah, when Donny ShitForBrains isnt in that office anymore. Thats when.

Death by a thousand tiny screws.
Ironically, also an import from China.
I read that if those screws were screwed in here, an iphone would cost about $3,500
I nearly lost my mind working in an electronics factory in the seventies, making tiny resistors, 3 or 4 HUNDRED at a time. I got Bursitis in my shoulder & had no health insurance, so I quit after 2 years .As a creative person, it was hell.
Shhh, don't tell all those 'Muricans who are just waiting for those assembly jobs, according to the admininstration of the idiots.
They'll have to cross the border and compete with Mexicans for those assembly jobs in the maquilladoras, massive plants that sprang up through U.S. and international investment during NAFTA.
yep, to take Mexican jobs, haha. No worries there, Mexico.
Did you have to use toxic chemicals to keep them clean, like MEK? My husband was an optical machinist, was told he didn't need protective goggles, and still has migraines today (only 40 years later.)
Not then, but when I worked making eyeglass lenses. I didn't last a week because the chemicals burned my hands.We wore white cotton gloves that we had to change constantly. They were useless. I feel for you & your husband. 🫂
I really miss the days when China disrespected me by selling me affordable stuff.
As a side note to you Jeff. Thank you for wading through the Sunday morning news 💩show so I don’t have to. That’s why I pay you the “ big bucks” 😂
Jeff, “incompetent chickenfuckers” is an hysterically funny description of these people. And the brain explosion is great.
I liked the ‘Penguin Islands’ cross-off, myself 😏😆
The penguins are teaching the seagulls to poop on Teslers.
If only!
😂
I suppose it would be a Hippa violation or a national security risk, but I’d like to see Trump’s brain scan.
Indeed. I’d also like to check the accuracy of the scale used to weigh him on Friday during his medical. Apparently he lost 20 lbs since his last one during his previous tenure. Who else is not naive enough to believe this?
I doubt anyone among the moron-fucks in this administration is capable of converting kg to lb.
😂
Probably everyone here. My estimate.
His fat greasy little thumbprints are all over the medical report released Sunday, which referenced his "frequent victories in golf events" as evidence of his fitness to serve as commander in chief. He said the exam showed a "good heart, a good soul, very good soul." Sure, that's what all our medical reports look like, what's not to trust?
It is laughable. My doctor has never reported on my soul.
My doc refuses to include my fake athletic awards.
You obviously see a quack.
Did they include the technology used to measure the goodness of the soul? Inquiring minds, etc.
Can't measure what was never there,
Well i hope when he said “a good heart” Dumb Donny Doofus was referring to his heart physically- cause in no fucking way does he have a heart - a compassionate
heart- cause he HAS NO COMPASSION.
He’s a cold and heartless sub human cretin who should be kept away from all other human beings.
Suki, evidently Hippa rules don't apply anymore since republicans want to make public the names of pregnant women and girls.
Doncha know women and girls want them to keep track of our periods? We not be smart enough to worry our pretty little heads.
What would you expect to see, Suki? There are some real possibilities:
Bobby’s Brainworm brother, munching away
Spiders spinning webs at a feverish pace
80 year old hamsters on the wheel gasping for air
But the stench, the rot, the fetid grossness of the insides of AnusMouthPantLoad are not to be trifled with. Airtight hazmat suits are recommended before you pop the top on that big, fat pumpkin head.
I was just wondering if they found his head during his colonoscopy.
Probably Justice Roberts', mistaken as a polyp.
I want to see those bone spurs
If you devote your time and energy accumulating money, you can be a billionaire. But if there's one thing these jagoffs have demonstrated, you don't have to be smart.
Just mean and super super greedy.
And be born rich. That is a real boost.
He brought them on for their singular desire to kiss his ass and their unparalleled aptitude for unashamed, unrepentant, blatant lying. The fact that the are incompetent chicken fuckers is wholly beside the point.
Cuz the only people that will believe the bullshit leaking from his face are “incompetent chicken fuckers.” Sorry chickens.
Does anybody remember when Pres. Biden signed a law to help America start manufacturing computer chips here in the US so that we wouldn't get caught short like we did with supply chain issues during covid? Did it roil international markets to the point where Japan started dumping Treasury bonds? Did it piss off any of our allies? No. THAT's how you bring manufacturing back in the US.
For that matter, does anyone remember how Pres. Biden deported an average of 57K people per month, compared to Dumpy's 37,660 in his first month? Did Pres. Biden ever deport people without due process? Did he deport people who hadn't committed any crimes at all? Did he deport anybody who had been specifically told by a judge that they would not be deported because their life was at risk if they went back to El Salvador?
Did Pres. Biden start invading middle schools, demanding to see children suspected of being here illegally? Did he allow ICE to stalk people in churches? Did the head of his CBP start posing with guns and $60K Rolexes, in tight white t-shirts?
After Hamas invaded Israel and people began protesting against both Hamas and Israel, did Pres. Biden deport anyone here legally because they protested something he disagreed with? Did he snatch students off the streets using masked men (or women)?
Me neither.
Thank you for that.
What never ceases to amaze me is the utter contempt everyone in that administration (from Donny on down) has for anyone who questions them on any policy. I know that's a pretty broad statement.
"How dare you question the wisdom of Dear Leader?" or
"It's too complicated - don't worry your little working class head about it."
David, And trump covers his hideous mistakes by pretending Xi or any other country came to the table to negotiate ANYTHING! EU, other allies and Japan were meeting among themselves to give it to trump. Trump is the one who had his chain yanked! 😄
I know what that orange dildo of a president is going to do to get China for holding back those shipments of magnets...he's going to re-route all that glorious water from Canada and get those GOD DAMNED MAGNETS WET!! Everybody knows that magnets don't work when they're wet, right?
Wait for it....
This is brilliant. I see what you did there, on so many levels!
Brilliant. That is the five demensional chess that we have been seeking.
And isn't ALL of this to influence the markets to pull of the REAL grift of insider trading? Didn't our very own orange Pol Pot admit that the other day with his "and he made XXX billion" statements? But I'm sure the FCC has been kneecapped so there will be no investigation there. And as much as ALL of this sucks, I hope the people who voted for him are screwed the hardest by all of it - the food, clothing, goods/services price increases AND the job losses. And does NO ONE realize that the ability to suddenly create manufacturing in our country requires shit from CHINA to do so? And millions of dollars and years to create such an infrastructure? I'm not even a business person and I get this shit.
*awkward* 😬 (for an entire nation…)
