All the little Hitlers coming are out of the woodwork under Trump. Bovino is one in a long line of Hitler wannabes getting hired under the Big Hitler wannabe.
Also, Trump groping his daughter is Yeech. I would rather be in the Shut Up Piggy category then the grope your daughter, or someone else's daughter category when Trump and Epstein are around. I wonder what his daughters will do when their daughters are teenagers.
From my experience with my dad's dementia, it's best to keep them away. My dad once said to me during a family Christmas "I suppose it's wrong to admit that I lust after my granddaughter." She was 10 at the time.
Paula, that sounds like great advice. My mom does not seem to have this problem in dementia, but I have heard from a friend that they had to move their dad again and again and again because he was trying to sexually assault the women in the retirement homes.
Sex isn't just sex to some men. To some, sex is an agent of control and dominance. That's why straight bullies may abuse other men or boys, dominance. Thank God for decent men everywhere.
Good for you! And at least he told you about his lust instead of just going ahead and acting on it. Wow. I'm so sorry your family went through that, and through dementia in a parent to begin with. It's awful.
I was molested by my grandfather from the age of five until I finally managed to avoid him when I was 12. I think I only avoided rape that last time by locking myself in the bathroom until my parents arrived to pick me up. I was never alone at my grandparents’ house after that. My parents had no clue what was happening. He had convinced me that my parents would be mad at me if I told them, and of course I believed him.
I’m so sorry. I wasn’t the only one of his granddaughters but I was the oldest and was the one he groomed. It wasn’t until recently that I learned what grooming is and recognized it for how he was with me. It’s tragic that too often those who should protect us are the very ones harming us. I hope you are well now and know that you are a strong survivor.
I can’t believe this baiser, which has a different meaning in German, yet it’s derived from French, meaning Fucker, has the nerve to say anything anymore Linda… the Hitler cosplay is maddening fuckery, none of us should ignore… the mendacity’s and truculence I’ve witnessed in this country has to end. Hopefully Wednesdays Jack Smith’s hearing will open some eyes!
It is sickening. I assume the Jack Smith hearings will not be broadcast on Fox News of Sinclair, or Newsmax, or places where people need to understand. I wonder how so many people can live in a fog of misinformation. I can see why they are hateful and frustrated. I would be too if I was fed a line of hooey all the time, with no ability to discern what is wrong with my information and why it does not work, or fit with my reality.
I really wish it was a public hearing and not the "behind closed doors" sort. They will leak edited bits or out of context bits or even make up stuff if Smith's answers aren't what they want to hear. Just hope there are Dems present as well as the Republidouches.
Sickening. That is why I said his daughters' daughters. I do not see the sons being clued into what is wrong with their dad's behavior towards women. Isn't one or both a big fan of the toxic Tate Bros? Is that the granddaughter Kai that is the influencer? I hear she is committed to attending the University of Miami. The city may not make her feel as welcome as she had expected after the drubbing the Republicans got in the mayoral election.
I wish for not just excruciating pain, but the worst kind of in public humiliation. Lack of control of bladder and massive diarrhea. Witnesses describing a foul stench causing at least violent nausea, but preferably projectile vomiting.
Don't feel guilty about that, Susan. He has driven us to levels of revulsion that we never thought possible. It is not our fault we have these feelings, but his.
I just recently watched a Tatort (German Crime drama) where the forensic pathologist was smashing pig heads with what he though was the murder weapon to see if it made the right imprints. This is what you are making me think of right now.
They do. I had dissected a fetal pig in seventh grade science. It was a horrid experience. Not the dissection so much as that my lab partner was picking at the pigs liver with tweezers and then squealing, and also when I was doing what we were supposed to be doing because she could not do it. It was super annoying, and made it hard to work. Then, I was getting sick from the formaldehyde because it triggered my asthma. I complained and the science teacher said some really inappropriate thing to me, and later on she was my colleague. Next it was lambs brains. But, nothing was like dissecting the grasshoppers in sixth grade science. We had a female and she was filled with eggs. They looked like brown rice and I could not eat brown rice for years after that because I associated it with the formaldehyde smell, which triggered my asthma. Eight grade was chemistry, and accidents with goofy boys. Sorry, I am going down memory lane now all because of one image. I am free associating. I could see this in a Trump speech without the connecting words or sentences.
Bob, while I am a big fan of both Kay Scarpetta mysteries, and "Bones" I am not so big on true crime. Now they are creepy to me, whereas when it is not "real" I can be quite interested in learning about how they use forensics to figure out what happened. In fact, my daughter tells me how I scarred her by having "Bones" on when she was little and she came in the room to tell me something and was very disturbed by what she saw on the screen. Both are so interesting. I like to learn while in make believe, but if it is real it is too creepy for me.
“Bones” was an interesting show, although some of the investigation techniques don’t exist yet. And it was based on an actual forensic pathologist from Canada.
I’m not squeamish, but that doesn’t mean I don’t find horrific crimes disturbing. The investigative techniques are interesting, as is the psychopathy.
Also, look at the students in the lecture. How many US shows have 2 brown skinned students in a row answering questions in a predominantly White class? Not typical in a German show either, but more power to Thiel and Boeme. Also, my husband knows that this is the Thiel I like, and the other one I feel the opposite about.
Thanks for the links. I've been watching half an episode every night of Tatort Münster. (My husband doesn't understand German, and the more recent episodes come without subtitles). My family lives near Münster, so I love seeing Thiel cycling down the Prinzipalmarkt.
And yes, the cast diversity is great. I also like that the people look like ordinary people.
I subscribed to MHz as my Christmas present last year to get all the German mystery series. Homicide in the Hills (Mord mit Aussicht was fabulous fun... so it Tatort Reiniger)
It is on ARD mediathek, and you can watch it from the US without VPN I believe. It is called Der Hammer. The part with the pigs is around 26 minutes in, if you just want to watch that.
Can you even IMAGINE what the response would've been if Biden crapped out something like that? I know I keep saying this, but he would've been impeached and removed from office by the end of this week.
That is because the Democrats would vote AYE. There are not any Republicans who care enough about this country to "sacrifice" their job by bringing charges and voting AYE. The voters want this buffoon in office. after all, he "tells it like it is" and they understand that weave.
The irony is that if republicans were even a little bit smart, if they went along with impeaching piggy, they just might redeem themselves enough to keep their jobs. We’ll never know…
IMHO, most, not all, elected Repubs are completely unable to "do their jobs" meaning working for their constituents and upholding their oaths of office. I don't know if that's because the MAGAs are so rabid about "owning the libs" and don't care what punishments they endure for that goal, or they're just clueless morons. My point tho, is that elected Repubs are busy re-arranging the deck chairs on the SS Trumptanic and happy to do so. When the boat sinks, they're going with it. Apparently joyful to keep all their ill-gotten gains, the insider trading profits, massive "campaign" donations from the oligarchs and multi-nationals, right up until the money spigot is slammed shut and they head off into the sunset never to be re-elected again.
Since re-election is the focal point now, any Republican wanting to grab the brass ring again should be receiving a message from any of their constituents by letter or e-mail that they will not earn the vote unless they do not speak out against support of Trump administration craziness. Perhaps start demanding resignations too?
Need the full court press. Tell them *plan* on being primaried. Even if to replace an existing Repub with a newcomer Repub. Yank them out of office, the gravy train stops. If you have the bandwidth, call them weekly, or daily, that they haven't objected to #47 and/or that 25A *must* be invoked. Handwritten letters have more impact than emails.
True dat, waving his arms around, playing the air. accordion, jerking a couple of imaginary guys off, bj’s on a microphone, Village people love…nothing this wastrel does makes sense, except for his sexual awkwardness!
The NYT would have said, "Biden needs to go!" Just like they did. I was just explaining to my friend why I cannot ethically read the NYT. She knows why I am against it, but as we were discussing that DW is about to get on the Kremlin's "undesirable designation" list, which means they probably cannot have reporters in person anymore, and they probably cannot go to the US either once this ridiculous visa requirement is in place, those will be 2 countries where they won't have feet on the ground in reporting and how will that work? She was saying that is why she wanted the NYT, because it will probably take longer to get rid of them. So what! Their news is not worth it because they do not dare speak truth to evil power, only good power.
I made front page of the Times once, I was the long haired photographer atop the backstop in Central Park for the Jefferson Airplane to Starship concert. Till the cops chased the mass of people that followed me down.
I once read it religiously, its just another crappy fish wrap today!
Hah, there were a million people gathered for that concert arne, I scurried up the backstop for the vantage point early…sadly, so did a mass of people that caused a teetering backstop which a horseback cop noticed as well.
The point to all the endless “… can you imagine if Biden had said/done that?” scenarios is that Biden would never have said or done anything like that.
I have spent all last night and this morning absolutely devastated over the loss of Rob and Michele. I had the honor of knowing them personally so it has broken my heart to learn of their tragedy -- and likely at the hands of their own son.
I was holding it together mostly until reading that disgusting absolutely ABHORRENT post that the MEGALOMANIC in the Oval posted -- diminishing their deaths to make it all about himself.
And in that same message giving approval to murder or death for any one person that dares to speak against him.
It has literally made me want to vomit.
I need you all to know that Rob and Michele were the purest of souls -- absolute in their kindness, warmth, and generosity. They were everything that narcissistic cancer we have to call our President is NOT. I will mourn this loss to the world a very long time. RIP to two wonderful friends -- may their legacy and impact far outweigh the words put out this morning.
I am so sorry. I worked for a state senator in the '90s and Reiner spoke about early childhood care and education and though that was my only interaction with him, you could tell he was a LOVELY soul. We were lucky to have him.
Trump does not understand Rob Reiner humor, he only laughs at cruelty. Reiner, Brown, Bondi Beach are all tragedies and the fact that our president deals with all information through his crappy social media platform is just outrageous on top of all of the other outrages. We deserve better.
Had the privilege of working with Reiner in the 90's on a PSA promoting the addition of 50 cents on packs of cigs to support early childhood education. By far, the most decent & authentic celeb I ever met while working in LA. A genuinely nice man. Very easy to work with/for. And that Proposition passed.
Seems it was the all too often and tragic case of "tough love" that led to these awful deaths. Struggling with the addiction issues of loved ones is one of the hardest, most harrowing issues of American life in the 21st century. May he & his wife rest in peace. It's just so massively sad.
Either none of his handlers is filtering any of his Truth Social posts or they are rabidly enabling him. And who would that be? Miller, Cheung, Wiles? Let's go for the sycophants too.
He did dump bestie and mentor Roy Cohn "like a hot potato" when he found out he was dying of complications of AIDS. Said he fumigated the dinnerware after Cohn visited Mar-a-Lago. Cohn later said Trump "pisses ice water."
Seriously…what a fucking asshole!! I cannot wait to dance in the streets when he meets his demise. And I hope Karma gives it to him straight up the ass and twists it HARD, just like he likes it 🤬
He's so disgusting but what's even more disgusting is that the media repeats the vomit he spews. We need to stop talking about what he's saying, and focus on what he's doing and how to stop it. We need to start by stopping him and his cronies from taking over the media. My article offers some advice on ways to do this. Check it out. https://beckyzelinski.substack.com/p/paramount-isnt-chasing-bugs-bunny?r=3cleu3
Remember that film The Dead Zone when Johnny asks his doctor if he would have murdered Hitler when he was a child ? That’s how I feel right now about donnie two dolls! A bit extreme I know but JFC
Yes, the response to the Brown University shooting was disingenuous. The fuckwit’s response to the deaths Rob Reiner and Michele Singer was even worse, proving without a doubt that the orange bastard is one of the worst human beings alive.
My best hope is that hell is a creation of your own making. If you believe in it, which orange piggy seems to, you will experience it in the last moments of brain activity before death and that activity could be stretched out to be perceived as 10,000 years of misery.
This is what gets me about the Trump-loving Christian nationalists. It's bad enough that many of them would make an actual idol of any mortal being, but the guy they idolize is LITERALLY one of the worst people in the world. It absolutely boggles my mind.
The Antichrist is said to have power to beguile, although it only works on some. Those of us who are immune to the Hypnotoad only see the toad, and are amazed that those other people cannot see the creature for what he is. We will never see whatever it is that they see.
I think they believe that through Dummy Donny, they can achieve their goal of a Christian nation. He’s their pawn & he doesn’t give a f’ck about religion, just money
I'm going out on a limb to say he IS the worst human alive, at least among the humans I'm aware of. Who else is even close? Ok, maybe the ones who are letting him get away with it. I'm looking at you Congress and SCOTUS.
The thing is his followers will twist their panties in a knot trying to justify his incoherent, demented ramblings and declare that's why they like him. Too utterly stupid to realize it reveals more about their idiocracy than it does him. But, then again, they don't give a shit anyway.
I used to have a wonderful client who never referred to Trump by name, referring to him only as "that man" in the most scornful tones she could muster.
" does she look like Ivanka? it’s the most unbelievable thing. I— it’s— I wouldn’t— I didn’t wanna take a chance."
All of this is just horrific and batshit.
But people must remember; the pricktator isn't elected to be competent. He's not elected to be moral. He's not elected to even be a legal person. It's fine for him to be a moldering, skeezy predator just as long as he does his real job for those who elected him. Smash the minorities that the unreconstructed hate. Especially Black people, especially trans people. And also to lock down the women—especially the ones with 'danger hair' and pronouns who won't fuck the chuds—and make them subservient again. Just like the Good Old Days™.
I refuse to believe he was "elected" legally. Musk fucked with the results through the compromised voting machines and his satellites that were turned on that day and then turned off the next. Fuckface wasn't kidding when he said the "Musk got me elected". I'm convinced this WILL come out as well as other so called elected Repugnicans...
I believe that you are correct. There are so many statistical anomalies, things that could absolutely not happen. My only hope is that it all comes out someday and Musk flees to Africa forever.
The Substack "This Will Hold" has a fair number of arguments that have fully convinced me of this. And that the fuckery continues (e.g., TN late dump defying all math).
She also has links For the election officials to demand recounts. We only have another little over nine months to hound these people before the time expires
I believe there’s already enough evidence that they cooked the results big time. I’d like to see them all out and the real winner installed. She would certainly be up to the cleanup job.
Precisely. I'm tired of hearing the mealy-mouthed excuse for the Demento voters, that they "didn't vote for this"--whatever the latest atrocity is that his regime is committing. The jackasses who voted for him voted for exactly is happening right now: they knew it and they wanted it when they filled out the ballots. That psycho hardcore base of his was hoping for his win and therefore everything that is now destroying the US.
None of the spineless Republican cowards in Congress will do anything to remove him. The only thing that might motivate them to act is sustained protests all over the country 24/7
It’s not nice to make fun of anyone’s looks, especially when it’s some physical attribute that cannot be helped — a teeny wienie, for example — but according to Google’s AI synopsis, Greg Bovino is 5’4” tall, which I think explains a lot.
I saw a pic of him with some of his jackbooted thugs, and unless all the guys near him were at least 6' 4", I think Bovino is probably more like 5' 2" or 3", because they absolutely towered over him.
A gay friend of mine used to refer to guys like Bovino, Trump, and Hegseth as "hysterical macho overcompensators." 'Nuff said
Today in the Daily Jeffy, we see King Fuckface the First shit all over everything and everyone.
I have a picture of Trump's headstone, and on it is also the inscription, "Please wash hands after urinating" which I think is the MOST PERFECT MONUMENT we could EVER give Der Trumpenpedofuehrer.
Trumps deranged post about Rob and his wife is the most disgusting post of his to date. There is not one ounce of compassion in the man. He’s a monster.
Fuck all the MAGA morons that stand behind this outrageous statement.
The thing about “Trump Derangement Syndrome” is that it was completely made up by MAGA and is not a clinical diagnosis. So…I made my own definition of TDS:
A term used to describe the support and loyalty for Donald J Trump, either blind or contrary, without regards to the health, safety, and well-being of the American nation and its People.
My S.O. has a universal response whenever a Gigantic Tandem-Wheeled-Pick-em-up-Truck roars past rolling some good old 'Murrican Coal: she yells "Sorry about your penis!"
I know, it was always so obvious to me that trump derangement would be how you would describe a trump cult worshipper. Now, Trump HATE Syndrome (THS) would describe all of us!
I found it interesting that donald ASSUMED the murderer was one of his MAGAs. That the person was so driven to hatred by the Reiners' political views, that it would be understandable that they were murdered by someone with "TDS." (Of course, turns out that probably isn't the case at all.)
I think you mean that the MAGA killer was driven to murder by REINER's TDS. Not true, apparently, but since when has Trump ever been interested in the truth?
Annnnnd then we have the murders of the Reiners on all our breakfast plates; the fact that this nation has guns coming out of its ass is important, but let's don't forget the incredible mental health crisis that makes all these shootings possible. And either spare yourself, or DON'T spare yourself the fragrant, steaming nugget of prose dropped by Mr Wonderful on the occasion regarding Rob Reiner's TBS. Let him do his double-jerkoff dance on the grave, because the real shindig is coming up very soon.
I didn't even see this until after I posted:
"Trump says Rob Reiner, victims of possible homicide, died of ‘Trump derangement syndrome’"
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5649316-rob-reiner-homicide-trump-derangement/
ugh. I need to lie down in a dark room before my head explodes
I just updated the post to include this
All the little Hitlers coming are out of the woodwork under Trump. Bovino is one in a long line of Hitler wannabes getting hired under the Big Hitler wannabe.
Also, Trump groping his daughter is Yeech. I would rather be in the Shut Up Piggy category then the grope your daughter, or someone else's daughter category when Trump and Epstein are around. I wonder what his daughters will do when their daughters are teenagers.
From my experience with my dad's dementia, it's best to keep them away. My dad once said to me during a family Christmas "I suppose it's wrong to admit that I lust after my granddaughter." She was 10 at the time.

It was a great uncle at my house

Yikes! I’m so sorry. That’s horrible Paula.
Yikes Paula, sad thing is that dementia removes inhibitions, that’s really frightening!
Wow.
I can’t believe this baiser, which has a different meaning in German, yet it’s derived from French, meaning Fucker, has the nerve to say anything anymore Linda… the Hitler cosplay is maddening fuckery, none of us should ignore… the mendacity’s and truculence I’ve witnessed in this country has to end.

Fingers crossed something of substance is revealed Linda.
Blame the billionaire owners of our media, who dummy down the serfs and sheeple. Unfortunately the fog of dis/misinformation is all they want!
I really wish it was a public hearing and not the "behind closed doors" sort. They will leak edited bits or out of context bits or even make up stuff if Smith's answers aren't what they want to hear. Just hope there are Dems present as well as the Republidouches.
Ditto, it should have been since Smith demanded it to be. The confusion and chaos that will be unleashed…
Too late. https://www.thetimes.com/us/news-today/article/kai-madison-trump-granddaughter-golf-jr-influencer-8czf99gg0

Hard to like a comment about such a filthy wastrel Susan, yet I did and agree!
Vomitous.
Saw this, thanks for linking Abigail!
😠🤬
🤮🤮
Frontotemporal often causes people’s judgment to fail and fail miserably and dangerously.
Yeah me too! Ugh!!!
one of don jr's teen daughters golfs with trump.
Sickening. That is why I said his daughters' daughters. I do not see the sons being clued into what is wrong with their dad's behavior towards women. Isn't one or both a big fan of the toxic Tate Bros? Is that the granddaughter Kai that is the influencer? I hear she is committed to attending the University of Miami. The city may not make her feel as welcome as she had expected after the drubbing the Republicans got in the mayoral election.
I had read that Barron was a big fan of the Tate Bros.
😕
Our National Embarrassment will be disappointed to learn he can’t pardon the murderer
I'm looking forward to that pig trump dying of his own derangement syndrome which is in it's full throes.
....make that dying in excruciating pain. I hate him.
I wish for not just excruciating pain, but the worst kind of in public humiliation. Lack of control of bladder and massive diarrhea. Witnesses describing a foul stench causing at least violent nausea, but preferably projectile vomiting.
Every morning, when I’m just half awake, I check the news hoping to see that he has died. It makes me feel like a horrible person, but I still do it.
Don't feel horrible. This club is bigger than you can imagine.
don't worry, you're just a normal person. He is the sick one.
Don't feel guilty about that, Susan. He has driven us to levels of revulsion that we never thought possible. It is not our fault we have these feelings, but his.
You're not alone.
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
I just recently watched a Tatort (German Crime drama) where the forensic pathologist was smashing pig heads with what he though was the murder weapon to see if it made the right imprints. This is what you are making me think of right now.
I’ve seen forensic research doing this very thing Linda, yikes!
It’s grim, as is the body farm at the University of Tennessee Knoxville.
I might have watched too many true crime shows.
Dexter did blood spatter tests on his show iirc, forensic teams do some peculiar testing, you got that right!
They do. I had dissected a fetal pig in seventh grade science. It was a horrid experience. Not the dissection so much as that my lab partner was picking at the pigs liver with tweezers and then squealing, and also when I was doing what we were supposed to be doing because she could not do it.

Yes. I love crime dramas and good ones have forensic scenes that are educational as opposed to just gory.
Ohhh! Which episode? Was it Karl-Friedrich Boerne?
Karen, The Episode is called "Der Hammer." Yes it is with Karl-Friedrich Boerne. My husband and I watch an episode before bed each night. Here is the link. https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/tatort/der-hammer/wdr/Y3JpZDovL3dkci5kZS9CZWl0cmFnLWI0MjU3YmQ5LTFiNmUtNGY5My04YjkyLWUzOGI5MTEyMTdjNg
The pigs are about 26 minutes in. If you like Tatort, and this is the most popular Tatort Duo supposedly, which is why they and their cast have been on for 23 years, then you will like this episode too, which we watched last night. It is called "Fiderallala", and shows Boerne in a new light, but not really. https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/tatort/fiderallala/wdr/Y3JpZDovL3dkci5kZS9CZWl0cmFnLXNvcGhvcmEtMDcxZjZjMjYtMTEyZi00YzY4LWIxNzUtZGVmOGIxODZlMjM3
Also, look at the students in the lecture. How many US shows have 2 brown skinned students in a row answering questions in a predominantly White class? Not typical in a German show either, but more power to Thiel and Boeme. Also, my husband knows that this is the Thiel I like, and the other one I feel the opposite about.

Any chance that it might be on Netflix any time soon?

Linda's link is free, alternatively, you can see it on MHz.
Love that series!
Free on ARD Mediathek. Here are many in the series with Thiel und Boerne.
I look forward to pissing on his grave.
People will line up for hours and even pay fees to piss on his grave. I’d pay extra to shit on it.
As long as the money goes to a good cause and not the shit gobblers he calls a family.

Since re-election is the focal point now, any Republican wanting to grab the brass ring again should be receiving a message from any of their constituents by letter or e-mail that they will not earn the vote unless they do not speak out against support of Trump administration craziness. Perhaps start demanding resignations too?
Need the full court press. Tell them *plan* on being primaried. Even if to replace an existing Repub with a newcomer Repub. Yank them out of office, the gravy train stops. If you have the bandwidth, call them weekly, or daily, that they haven't objected to #47 and/or that 25A *must* be invoked. Handwritten letters have more impact than emails.
Good point Peace!
Does any sane person understand his weave Mary?
I don’t think Donny understands it.
True dat, waving his arms around, playing the air. accordion, jerking a couple of imaginary guys off, bj’s on a microphone, Village people love…nothing this wastrel does makes sense, except for his sexual awkwardness!
The NYT would have said, "Biden needs to go!" Just like they did. I was just explaining to my friend why I cannot ethically read the NYT. She knows why I am against it, but as we were discussing that DW is about to get on the Kremlin's "undesirable designation" list, which means they probably cannot have reporters in person anymore, and they probably cannot go to the US either once this ridiculous visa requirement is in place, those will be 2 countries where they won't have feet on the ground in reporting and how will that work? She was saying that is why she wanted the NYT, because it will probably take longer to get rid of them. So what! Their news is not worth it because they do not dare speak truth to evil power, only good power.
I made front page of the Times once, I was the long haired photographer atop the backstop in Central Park for the Jefferson Airplane to Starship concert. Till the cops chased the mass of people that followed me down.
I once read it religiously, its just another crappy fish wrap today!
Wow. That's interesting. We really don't know who the celebs are in this group.
My first ever show was a free concert by the Jefferson Airplane in Grant Park in Chicago. It was also the first concert I ever photographed.
Hah, there were a million people gathered for that concert arne, I scurried up the backstop for the vantage point early…sadly, so did a mass of people that caused a teetering backstop which a horseback cop noticed as well.
Good times!
The point to all the endless “… can you imagine if Biden had said/done that?” scenarios is that Biden would never have said or done anything like that.
In his very own "hug me coat"!
Likely Anastasia!
Practice self-care, Jeff. We need you.
angrily typing this shit out for three or four hours every morning -is- my self-care
And we appreciate it! You, HCR, and JoJo from Jerz keeps me going!!!
Kind of like primal scream therapy, only typing?
AMEN, brother!!
Ok, then.
I have spent all last night and this morning absolutely devastated over the loss of Rob and Michele. I had the honor of knowing them personally so it has broken my heart to learn of their tragedy -- and likely at the hands of their own son.
I was holding it together mostly until reading that disgusting absolutely ABHORRENT post that the MEGALOMANIC in the Oval posted -- diminishing their deaths to make it all about himself.
And in that same message giving approval to murder or death for any one person that dares to speak against him.
It has literally made me want to vomit.
I need you all to know that Rob and Michele were the purest of souls -- absolute in their kindness, warmth, and generosity. They were everything that narcissistic cancer we have to call our President is NOT. I will mourn this loss to the world a very long time. RIP to two wonderful friends -- may their legacy and impact far outweigh the words put out this morning.
Many grieve with you, and also know that the primary sufferer of Trump Derangement Syndrome is Trump himself.
Thank you my friend. The support and outpouring of love for both of them helps get through such a dark time.
I cannot wait for Trump to be merely a footnote in history.
And, may that be soon! Everyday I say: Today would be a good day for gravity to stop working for the evil orange menace.
🤗
I am so sorry. I worked for a state senator in the '90s and Reiner spoke about early childhood care and education and though that was my only interaction with him, you could tell he was a LOVELY soul. We were lucky to have him.
Thank you ❤️
He and Michele both were amazing advocates for children and for human rights.
And their work will continue for generations to come.
This is what true altruism looks like, unlike slapping one’s name on the side of a building or building grandiose arches.
The work the two of them did, and the good they achieved will last LONG after that (person) is gone.
It's ironic to me that I can't imagine either of them would send out such a hateful message if Trump died.
We know who the helpers are to look to. It's just tragic that two of them are gone.
I love that, its what Mister Rogers used to say. What a great sentiment!
"I can't imagine either of them would send out such a hateful message if Trump died"
His remarks about Charlie Kirk's death were more decent than mine. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/rob-reiners-comments-charlie-kirks-162252362.html
Trump does not understand Rob Reiner humor, he only laughs at cruelty. Reiner, Brown, Bondi Beach are all tragedies and the fact that our president deals with all information through his crappy social media platform is just outrageous on top of all of the other outrages. We deserve better.
I'm not sure that we do. After all, little by little, we allowed the scum to take over, didn't we?
Had the privilege of working with Reiner in the 90's on a PSA promoting the addition of 50 cents on packs of cigs to support early childhood education. By far, the most decent & authentic celeb I ever met while working in LA. A genuinely nice man. Very easy to work with/for. And that Proposition passed.
Seems it was the all too often and tragic case of "tough love" that led to these awful deaths. Struggling with the addiction issues of loved ones is one of the hardest, most harrowing issues of American life in the 21st century. May he & his wife rest in peace. It's just so massively sad.
Yes. It is the worst. I just heard that Rob and his wife were killed by their son. They have him in custody with 4 million dollar bail.
Was just coming here to comment about this. This is beyond disgusting, even for him. What a wretched excuse for a man.
Either none of his handlers is filtering any of his Truth Social posts or they are rabidly enabling him. And who would that be? Miller, Cheung, Wiles? Let's go for the sycophants too.
Yes. I miss Joe Biden every day.
So do all intelligent persons on the planet.
After Adlai Stevenson finished a campaign speech, a woman gushed "You'll have the vote of every thinking person in this country!"
He replied "Too bad I need a majority."
He did dump bestie and mentor Roy Cohn "like a hot potato" when he found out he was dying of complications of AIDS. Said he fumigated the dinnerware after Cohn visited Mar-a-Lago. Cohn later said Trump "pisses ice water."
This all tracks.
Seriously…what a fucking asshole!! I cannot wait to dance in the streets when he meets his demise. And I hope Karma gives it to him straight up the ass and twists it HARD, just like he likes it 🤬
I'm a bit surprised he didn't say the murdered Brown students also died from that. I mean, blue state and a university that refused to bow to him.
He's so disgusting but what's even more disgusting is that the media repeats the vomit he spews. We need to stop talking about what he's saying, and focus on what he's doing and how to stop it. We need to start by stopping him and his cronies from taking over the media. My article offers some advice on ways to do this. Check it out. https://beckyzelinski.substack.com/p/paramount-isnt-chasing-bugs-bunny?r=3cleu3
Remember that film The Dead Zone when Johnny asks his doctor if he would have murdered Hitler when he was a child ? That’s how I feel right now about donnie two dolls! A bit extreme I know but JFC
Per usual it’s all about HIM 🤬
I fucking hate that waste of human skin..not one ounce of humanity in that entire blob of orange garbage. What a disgrace.
Yes, the response to the Brown University shooting was disingenuous. The fuckwit’s response to the deaths Rob Reiner and Michele Singer was even worse, proving without a doubt that the orange bastard is one of the worst human beings alive.
Violently violated the warranty on his human soul.
I know you know that he has no soul, or sold it to the devil long ago.
I really wished I believed in hell, to be assured that he and Miller get to experience the fires of eternal damnation.
My best hope is that hell is a creation of your own making. If you believe in it, which orange piggy seems to, you will experience it in the last moments of brain activity before death and that activity could be stretched out to be perceived as 10,000 years of misery.
His soul is owned by Russia (Putin and cronies) now
He never had a soul.
Just what you would expect from electing a demented psychopath to the presidency…
This is what gets me about the Trump-loving Christian nationalists. It's bad enough that many of them would make an actual idol of any mortal being, but the guy they idolize is LITERALLY one of the worst people in the world. It absolutely boggles my mind.
The Antichrist is said to have power to beguile, although it only works on some. Those of us who are immune to the Hypnotoad only see the toad, and are amazed that those other people cannot see the creature for what he is. We will never see whatever it is that they see.
But--it does tell you everything you need to know about them and their religion. They reveal it all through their devotion to Donnie Demento.
I think they believe that through Dummy Donny, they can achieve their goal of a Christian nation. He’s their pawn & he doesn’t give a f’ck about religion, just money
No one ever said that religious purity was rational.
That’s because it’s mind-boggling! 😜
I'm going out on a limb to say he IS the worst human alive, at least among the humans I'm aware of. Who else is even close? Ok, maybe the ones who are letting him get away with it. I'm looking at you Congress and SCOTUS.
His fuckery knows no bounds Jsuttral, he’s a drug addled, insanely demented, entirely evil connard!
The thing is his followers will twist their panties in a knot trying to justify his incoherent, demented ramblings and declare that's why they like him. Too utterly stupid to realize it reveals more about their idiocracy than it does him. But, then again, they don't give a shit anyway.
Jsuttra, he proves this each and every day as he lives and breathes.
He is a Very Sick man. Needs to be put away ASAP.
Jeff, please tell us you are planning a festive holiday post about our favorite gif and calling it the Nutcracker.
I LOVE THAT IDEA
Frankly, I’m surprised you didn’t think of it first!
MzNicky: You win the internet today!
Perhaps the anniversary of that grand public nut-slap could be celebrated.
Make it a free admission day at the National Parks!
Avoid national parks on That Man's birthday, June 14th. You'll probably run into plenty of red-hatted MAGAts at the parks that day.
I used to have a wonderful client who never referred to Trump by name, referring to him only as "that man" in the most scornful tones she could muster.
👏👏👏👏👏
I second that!😀
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
Love you back, Cat Woman!
😆
Je l'aime Mz!!
Good one!
Yes!
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
“my compliments to your embalmer.” 🤣 You had a helluva challenge to write about and you did a fantastic job. Again.
Everything is so incredibly depressing. You’re about the only thing I look forward to. We all thank you.
Had to be tough day to write anything entertaining Susan, you’re right!
And none of this would/could be happening without the cowardice of the republican party.
And the SCROTUMS of SCOTUS
They’re all ignoble poltroons Mark, you nailed it!
We get two dolls and five pencils, but I bet the Slovenian rent-a-wife has 20 dildoes
And JD has plenty of butt plugs in assorted sizes to always be ready for Master Theil.
I've often wondered about that...relationship?
"Geet yohr muzzroom thing avay from me, tiny hands man!"
😂😂😂😂
Lol! Got to find the humor during these dark and bleak days!
Gold plated!
Kinky!
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
1. President Shit Happens will be my new go to for when that fucker finally succumbs to his own derangement syndrome.
2. RIP Rob and Michele Reiner.
I can’t wait for prezfuk “shit happens” to get what he deserves for his vile, psychopathic, vengeful insane rants. What a disgusting unhuman.
" does she look like Ivanka? it’s the most unbelievable thing. I— it’s— I wouldn’t— I didn’t wanna take a chance."
All of this is just horrific and batshit.
But people must remember; the pricktator isn't elected to be competent. He's not elected to be moral. He's not elected to even be a legal person. It's fine for him to be a moldering, skeezy predator just as long as he does his real job for those who elected him. Smash the minorities that the unreconstructed hate. Especially Black people, especially trans people. And also to lock down the women—especially the ones with 'danger hair' and pronouns who won't fuck the chuds—and make them subservient again. Just like the Good Old Days™.
I refuse to believe he was "elected" legally. Musk fucked with the results through the compromised voting machines and his satellites that were turned on that day and then turned off the next. Fuckface wasn't kidding when he said the "Musk got me elected". I'm convinced this WILL come out as well as other so called elected Repugnicans...
I believe that you are correct. There are so many statistical anomalies, things that could absolutely not happen. My only hope is that it all comes out someday and Musk flees to Africa forever.
Put him in an ICE facility in Antarctica, with no reliable internet service.
in the meantime ... RELEASE ALL THE EPSTEIN FILES INCLUDING ALL PHOTOS!
blur out the victims face but leave the rest for US to decide what's what and what's not!
FUK TRUMP!
100%!!! I am convinced of same.
The Substack "This Will Hold" has a fair number of arguments that have fully convinced me of this. And that the fuckery continues (e.g., TN late dump defying all math).
https://substack.com/home/post/p-180653996
Also, from the first link in that article: the votes ostensibly coming from five ENTIRELY FICTIONAL counties in Harris v. Trump.
She also has links For the election officials to demand recounts. We only have another little over nine months to hound these people before the time expires
I never believed the last-minute results. I think we all felt that something was wrong.
Yup, that TN late dump was sketchy as hell
I believe there’s already enough evidence that they cooked the results big time. I’d like to see them all out and the real winner installed. She would certainly be up to the cleanup job.
Absolutely! And don't forget his proud announcements that "I don't need your votes." Because he already knew the fix was in.
You should watch Vigilantes Inc. it’s free on YouTube:
https://youtu.be/P_XdtAQXnGE?si=dIchXxcVoCU5fP2w
I agree 100%
"moldering, skeezy predator" is such an apt description that I wish I'd thought of it myself
Precisely. I'm tired of hearing the mealy-mouthed excuse for the Demento voters, that they "didn't vote for this"--whatever the latest atrocity is that his regime is committing. The jackasses who voted for him voted for exactly is happening right now: they knew it and they wanted it when they filled out the ballots. That psycho hardcore base of his was hoping for his win and therefore everything that is now destroying the US.
What a disgrace, while allegedly getting intravenous infusions of anti Alzheimer’s drugs. They need to stop the drip and send him packing.
He is their useful idiot.
Yes please Mike!
👏
None of the spineless Republican cowards in Congress will do anything to remove him. The only thing that might motivate them to act is sustained protests all over the country 24/7
It’s not nice to make fun of anyone’s looks, especially when it’s some physical attribute that cannot be helped — a teeny wienie, for example — but according to Google’s AI synopsis, Greg Bovino is 5’4” tall, which I think explains a lot.
Ah, yes it does. Not all short people are sociopaths, though.
But everyone has experience being victimized by one.
Time for another big protest. “If he should die before I wake, I pray to God the news ain’t fake”
The ones I know of appear so Arne.
I saw a pic of him with some of his jackbooted thugs, and unless all the guys near him were at least 6' 4", I think Bovino is probably more like 5' 2" or 3", because they absolutely towered over him.
A gay friend of mine used to refer to guys like Bovino, Trump, and Hegseth as "hysterical macho overcompensators." 'Nuff said
I just googled “how tall was Hitler?”
This is most definitely the worst timeline.
So, how tall was Hitler?
5 feet 9 inches.
But apparently he also had a micro-penis.
I think we can just stipulate for the ongoing record that all Fascist fuckwits have teeny wienies.
5’9”
Indeed Mz!
Yes, definitely short man syndrome
Today in the Daily Jeffy, we see King Fuckface the First shit all over everything and everyone.
I have a picture of Trump's headstone, and on it is also the inscription, "Please wash hands after urinating" which I think is the MOST PERFECT MONUMENT we could EVER give Der Trumpenpedofuehrer.
That made me laugh so frickin hard, Scott!!! Right on!!! 👏🏻🤣👏🏻🤣👏🏻🤣👏🏻🤣👏🏻🤣
Trumps deranged post about Rob and his wife is the most disgusting post of his to date. There is not one ounce of compassion in the man. He’s a monster.
Fuck all the MAGA morons that stand behind this outrageous statement.
2547 now
Scooped again, Jeff. Check out his response to Rob Reiner's murder. He blames it on Trump Derangement Syndrome. Ask me if I'm kidding.
yeah, Ms Spouse called that out to me from the next room about ten seconds about I clicked "publish" on this post
The thing about “Trump Derangement Syndrome” is that it was completely made up by MAGA and is not a clinical diagnosis. So…I made my own definition of TDS:
A term used to describe the support and loyalty for Donald J Trump, either blind or contrary, without regards to the health, safety, and well-being of the American nation and its People.
TDS;Tiny Dick Syndrome! For all those insecure cowards...
My S.O. has a universal response whenever a Gigantic Tandem-Wheeled-Pick-em-up-Truck roars past rolling some good old 'Murrican Coal: she yells "Sorry about your penis!"
Well, she is a keeper. For sure.
Perfect
I thought TDS was about all his followers buying his schlocky merch.
I know, it was always so obvious to me that trump derangement would be how you would describe a trump cult worshipper. Now, Trump HATE Syndrome (THS) would describe all of us!
Words, meanings, what is it about, really? TDS is sooo 2010's, time to move on with what's hip today.
Doncha mesn “hot?”
Mike,Those are the Rubes.
I found it interesting that donald ASSUMED the murderer was one of his MAGAs. That the person was so driven to hatred by the Reiners' political views, that it would be understandable that they were murdered by someone with "TDS." (Of course, turns out that probably isn't the case at all.)
I think you mean that the MAGA killer was driven to murder by REINER's TDS. Not true, apparently, but since when has Trump ever been interested in the truth?
Such an awful weekend. Reiner family added to this post of sadness and presidential SICKNESS.
Annnnnd then we have the murders of the Reiners on all our breakfast plates; the fact that this nation has guns coming out of its ass is important, but let's don't forget the incredible mental health crisis that makes all these shootings possible. And either spare yourself, or DON'T spare yourself the fragrant, steaming nugget of prose dropped by Mr Wonderful on the occasion regarding Rob Reiner's TBS. Let him do his double-jerkoff dance on the grave, because the real shindig is coming up very soon.
The Reiners were stabbed. But yes, mental illness was allegedly at the root of it (their schizophrenic son)
Even a man with his money couldn’t get adequate help for his son. System is fucked up.
I'm sure they tried everything they could. You can't save some people. It's tragic.
If he was off his drugs then the stabbing was definitely a possibility. Terrible.
I have seen my son off his drugs and it’s scary.
This nation fetishizes violence like an aphrodisiac. We won't get better leadership until we deserve it, and I have my doubts.
Nicely said Richard!
OMG, we obviously can't have 2 non-horrible weeks in a row. I'm not asking for a NICE week, God forbid. I just want another non-horrible week.
I'm so looking forward to next week when I can do my annual christmas post and forget about all this bullshit for a day
https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/merry-christmas-c03
You deserve a vacation. Seriously.
Same!
