today in "Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit" —
looks like the peace talking are going just swimmingly.
"BREAKING: Iranian forces have informed the Iranian negotiating delegation that a U.S. destroyer is moving from Fujairah Port toward the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran has informed the Pakistani mediator that if the American destroyer continues its movement, it will be targeted within 30 minutes."
Denise: wouldn't THAT be 'loverly'? We could 'negotiate' for his release - take lots of time, one of the conditions being that he never hold office in ANY capacity...AND be put in prison for his 34 convictions PLUS tried at The Hague for war crimes. Sigh - I can dream too, can't I?
his entire wastrel LIFE has been one of utter bullshittery. He's never physically worked a single day in his life, never actually 'built' anything BUT sticks his fake family name onto everything someone ELSE designed and built (while he borrowed the money which he never paid back in full - as always). His entire life has been one of living on Banks' monies. I remember his daughter telling what she thought was a cute story of going out in NY with him, seeing a homeless guy and her 'daddy' telling her that that homeless man 'had more money' than he did. She responded with her 'oh, c'mon' giggles, but he was serious. I doubt she got the point. But he was telling the truth: the homeless guy was flat broke, living on the streets, no job, no income BUT wasn't living on borrowed money in a rented building someone ELSE was paying for - like her dada. That's how he's conned the entire country - pretending to be 'richy rich'. In fact he LOST all the money his own dada gave him so got by with loans AND scam after scam after scam (such as his fake 'University', copying Omaha steaks and selling bottled water even Sylvester Stallone (after doing a taste test) said he wouldn't wash his socks in. Sly had his own water - which despite no identifying labels, he recognized and loved BY its taste (I think it was on the Letterman show). Every single one of frump's scams failed - and failed BIGLY as in the case of the Casinos. His latest scams are in OUR White House and now Iran. It needs to end. He's desperately trying to criminalize Letitia James who was able to FIND HIM GUILTY with a New York Jury of his peers! Put on hold because Jack Smith felt he couldn't proceed since frump was now 'president', but there's NO reason it can't be continued once he's out (either by impeachment OR us tossing him the fuck out as the warmonger he is).
Just bc a POTUS has never spent any time in jail after being FOUND GUILTY of FELONY charges, doesn’t mean he can’t/shouldn’t 🤬You described tRUMP and his disgusting, cheating, lying life to a tee Elizabeth.The precedents set by “we can’t do such and such bc he’s now POTUS” is SICKENING and IMMORALLY REPUGNANT Laws NEED to change despite the Constitution still being the same Constitution. The 🍊🤡🐖has taught us, “It’s not failure, it’s feedback” and we MUST take that feedback and make impactful, MEANINGFUL changes and see his ass in prison, not to mention, make or try to make any copycat trying to follow in his footsteps, truly stop and think TWICE before doing the same thing.
P.S. Who, out there, are THEE one(s) to file charges that will have tRUMP stand before the International Criminal Court in The Hague?? Are they taking notes and thinking, if not I/we, then who? I sure as HELL know the Repugnants in office, don’t have the balls to do something. I also am keenly aware it isn’t an easy undertaking, but the evil narcissistic warmonger In Chief, needs to be held responsible for his actions and his behavior.
WTF? Does Hegseth think one destroyer is gonna open the strait? It's just target practice for the Iranians. It would be ludicrous if it wasn't risking life and limb of our personnel.
How about the fact that Trump is now going to automatically register all 18-25 year old males in the draft. Normally the states do that, so is this a back door way to try to get at voter rolls in the Blue States? Before I wrote a piece about how family's should send their daughters abroad, but now I am going to say send your son abroad to university. I think this one applies to both.
Abby, several of my friend's son's have to register for the draft in the US and another country. A country in the EU that the US may be fighting against. It is not a good situation.
Awful! This grandson was born in England, but his parents were expats, so he's now a US citizen. I will fight not to have anyone I know not go fight the orange maniac's crazy wars!
The problem with that idea as I see it is that all the wealthy people will actually do that, so only the poor and uneducated will be left to fight trump's war. But then I believe that's been his (and the Heritage Foundation's) plan all along.
I don't see all the wealthy people doing it. Americans hardly go to University abroad for more than a semester. They pay tons of money for an education that they could get for free elsewhere because they are marketed to by the universities. So, No! I don't see a big wave of wealthy Americans studying abroad except for a semester, because no one thinks of it. It is the other way around, where others come to the US, although 2025 saw a negative immigration. That is more left than came. We shall see.
I will point out that poor people come from African and study here in Germany because the tuition is free. There are also lots of people from India. So, why can they manage this, but poor Americans cannot? It is the idea of what you can do that is missing. The poor mostly think everything American is the best, and do not question their lot, or whether it could be better somewhere else. A lot of wealthy people do not do that either.
Yes, and our precious men and women are on board. No thoughts and fucking prayers will help them. So worrisome! Now would be a good time for TACO to taco outta there.
Risking the actual lives and limbs of our military personnel is the hegseth version of a video game. I really, really, really hope he stands trial for war crimes.
Whoa, Jeff. This aggressive posturing proves once again that the U.S. regime cannot be trusted. Ever. Dump, Hegseth and Bibi are not serious about ending this war. The Iranian negotiators should just get up and walk out.
I desperately want Jared, Eric and Donnie Jr grilled for weeks in Congress once the Democrats take over. They hectored Hunter Biden for borrowing a few thousand dollars from his dad for a car — which had nothing to do with our government or getting rich from it. Now it's their turn.
Last week the Iranians wouldn’t even be in the same room with Shitkof and Jared. Now the master of negotiations Jd Vance joins in, the Three Musketeers. JD got along in Hungary 🇭🇺 but I hope he doesn’t ask the Iranians why they haven’t thanked Donald Trump. He usually doesn’t play well with others.
True, but it's been widely reported that Vance wasn't in agreement with the strikes on Iran. Maybe that's more comfortable for Iran's side of the negotiating?
One of the best things that could happen in this country, is an overview of the entire real estate business itself - the legalities and tax structure for them is insane, and most people don't know how little oversight they're subjected to.
Back in the day, the French used a form of imprisonment known as an oubliette. Once you were thrown down in one, there was literally no way out of it. Thrown down and forgotten about for eternity.
You’re right Patrick. And Boom Boom Bibi will never stop bombing unless Trump threatened to stop funding Bibi’s war machine. But that ain’t gonna happen.
You’re right Punkette. Bibi doesn’t want to go anywhere near peace. The more war fronts the better. He really does deserve the Nobel War Prize; although, Dumpy Trump could give him a run for his money.
On the one hand, I'm kinda-sorta rooting for Iran, but on the other hand, those troops could be dead by lunchtime and that is unacceptable, tragic. But it will keep the war going full steam if Iran destroys a destroyer. Putin makes bank, Bibi delays corruption charges and commits more genocide, and Trump manipulates the stock market.
And all only at a cost of thousand or so of our military.
I know, right? How naive we were. Dear God, I hope that Drumpf will be the worst president ever. It is sickening to imagine someone worse being in charge.
Me too, but I was a cocky teenager convinced we would get better. I figured we would legalize marijuana within a decade, because it made no sense to use a euphoric plant to put people in jail. Not when alcohol was legal.
I know. I sometimes still shake my head. I remember how much I despised Cheney and now ... I don't know, he doesn't seem as bad as what's happening now.
That’s right rlritt; but, the horse (‘s ass) is already out of the barn and now it’s “Whoopi, let’s blow some shit up — boys will be boys and 5 year olds will be 5 year olds — the rest of us be damned.
She could confess to a veritable Circus Maximus with Donnie, Melania and an assorted menagerie of barnyard animals and it wouldn't make an iota of difference.
There is all kinds of speculation about why the first hooker of the united states held that presser. Melania can be subpoenaed to testify regarding her own involvement and knowledge of Epstein-Trump-Russia, and she's trying to get out in front of the story. OR - she's seen Pam Bondi willingly make statements and the Republicans circle the wagons around her with "But she's already told you everything; she doesn't need to be under oath". Melania is hoping for the same treatment.
According to Trump we are now "clearing" the straight, I would point out that Ukraine doesn't have a navy either and Russia is missing a couple of capital ships.
That video of Trump as a Teletubby was pretty much on point.
Shouldn’t we be talking to someone in the Israeli government besides Netanyahu? He doesn’t want be in prison so he will keep on killing and destroying everything he can. The International Criminal Court has a warrant for him for war crimes.
I missed a live following of the peace talks by Iran War Dispatches with Tim Mak. I any case, Malcolm Nance was saying yesterday that the US might try to do a stupid move like power through the Straight with a line of ships, which means that some of them might get blown up by land mines. We shall see what happens.
Meanwhile, I think that Trump should give Hungary our National debt. We owe 39 trillion. Since Orbán is such a whiz with the economy, let him take that on.
To ME, that uncaring fuckwit WANTS one of our ships taken out just so he can claim Iran 'deserves' to be 'bombed back into the Stone Age' (a line probably given to him by goebbels/miller). I wouldn't put ANYTHING past either of those 2 beyond-evil bastids. The lives of our military mean NOTHING to them anymore than a plastic figurine of a toy soldier would. Now they want to DRAFT American boys on their 18th birthdays - except Barron of course - who's turning 20. NO frump has ever served in any military - y'know, the suckers and losers as he described them to John Kelly, himself a GOLD STAR Father!
Every day is a new national embarrassment and one filled with anxiety. We can't live like this. Where is congress and why aren't they doing their job??? We need a Goldwater moment.
I'm glad he did that. But to me he and Jeffries have not resisted forcefully enough. I agree with the House Dems who file for impeachment even though it will fail, that sort of thing
I think they’re all wearing those horse glasses so they can’t see on the sides- there’s a word for what I mean….hoping for Novembers midterm elections 🤞
As of April 2026, House Democrats have filed new articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump (who took office Jan 20, 2025), citing actions in Iran, Gaza, and domestic use of the National Guard. The resolution, introduced by Rep. John Larson, faces long odds in the Republican-controlled House.
Where are the REPUBLICAN Congress critters whose JOB it is to hold him accountable?! ALL the Democratic lawmakers save a couple) are doing THEIR jobs, we need to remind ourselves of that fact. WHEN we don't hold the majority it gives THEM 'the cards' - however, donny demento imagines HE has all the power - until they grow their balls big enough to 25th Amendment him..
I say that about Dump- all his rally antics on billboards - making fun of disabled people etc. with some of his stupid phrases that makes no sense at all- long blinkes when he’s not the center of attention- the list goes on Flo….
And he sent JD Vance, the Jesse Watters of tge Executive Branch, as chief negotiator. Look for Vance to say something so stupid a clueless middle school bully would have too much shame to utter it, then stand there waiting forever for Persian Daddy's love. We're doomed
Tbf, they probably should. Never in their wildest dreams did they think they'd walk out of this with the US humiliated to this extent, a giant revenue stream from the Strait, and leverage to prevent attacks on their allies. Never bet against Trump's vanity, or his track record of breaking everything he touches.
Doc, I searched through two pages of comments on Femto till someone finally said what it was and have come to the conclusion that is a very good, accurate and precise description! I’m afraid if I delve into Femto any more I might get sucked into a black hole.
It was covered back in college physics. The prefixes denoting metric units have in the 40+ ensuing years become much more common-knowledge but back then nano, pico, femto, giga, tera, and peta were very obscure
Don't feel badly, Frank. It was sort of an inside joke, I think aimed at Mr Blue Voting Bastard, who referenced femto earlier. Scroll up and look for his posts.
And Vance is over there warning them, "Don't try to play me!" Yeah, hon, they won't have to try, you fuckers are doing a stellar job of playing yourselves and taking all of us down in the process. Vance is a joke.
I think the Iranians requested him. They didn't want Kushner or Witkoff because that's who they were negotiating with when America started bombing Iran. They hate Trump. Vance was the highest ranking guy they kinda-sorta trusted.
Trust. Right. Pretty sure the Iranians don't trust ANYONE in this regime. Guessing.trump sent him to have a scapegoat when shit hits the fan. Damaging vance helps rubio, who trump seems to be mildly boosting.
IMO, he sent Couchfuck on a suicide mission. Vance has absolutely zero chance of success. especially with Thing One and Thing Two accompanying him. I doubt that the Orange Pustule is that strategic. Most likely, Stephen Miller dripped poison in his ear. But still.
The person who should be negotiating with the Iranians is the Secretary of State--Marco Rubio. He has the gravitas (such as it is) and the experience; while the 3 Bears have neither.
Orange has already decided he wants Rubio to succeed him and not Vance.
Things can only get more interesting from here on out.
After propping up the Argentine peso, lifting sanctions on Iranian oil and enabling them to now ransom the Strait, no surprise that he spends our national treasure helping dictator Orban. But okay, our own people don't need food, housing or healthcare. No wonder he's a rethuglican
I loved the fact that the NASA operations manager is from country of Columbia, one of the astronauts is a woman and the communications person is from Asia....wonder if ICE will target them.
That picture of Lindsey is worth a thousand words, problem is, I don't have a thousand words to waste on that MFer, but I love the drunk ass look on his face and I wonder if Pete was driving the limo.
If South Crackerlina Dems don't use that, the Little Mermaid bubble wand pic, and the video of his drunken cackling and blither on Air Force 1 in oppo advertising this year, they don't deserve to win. Every public utterance from him is opposition gold.
Big Daddy, I think you need to offer your services to the Dems. We need all the help we can get. What’s obvious to you and the rest of us often seems to slip through the cracks.
I hope State AG's and local DA's are already looking at indictments and prosecutions of any member of Trump's criminal organization that has committed, directed, or aided state and local crimes such that the federal pardoning of a criminal act does not apply.
Trump. Patel. Noem. Bovino. Homan. Bondi. Vaught. Musk. Gabbard. Rubio. Vance. Election deniers. -all of them need to enjoy years of Zen time in orange jumpsuits.
The thing is knowing they might go to jail, will probably make them do whatever they can to stay in office. Even canceling elections. Trump has already warned that if Democrats take Congress in Nov, he will be impeached. We should expect all possible ways they can prevent or steal the elections including violence.
Very true. The deranged criminal elect is a cornered animal and is doing everything he can to misdirect from the crimes and corruption of this administration (and his previous administration). While he continues to destroy, test, and probe any remaining societal guardrails -the GOP is complicit in the supportive actions and/or silence.
I long for the leadership of the Democratic presidencies when I was not reading social media posts of an angry, old grievance-hoarder in the morning, wondering if today is the day he will destroy the world. It is like a kick in the groin every day! Thanks, Trump voters! He's wandering around with his mental illness and our nuclear codes!
I’m eagerly waiting for this. I love it when the dirt finally surfaces on these low lives and I’m in dire need of some entertainment, even though it might be harrowing.
A week for the records. And still no journalist steadfast enough to win the JeffTiedrichChallenge™️
The entire planet won’t be forgetting how a sadist, wicked 5 year old and his cruel enablers caused enough anxiety and mistrust by the former “great power” that used to be the United States to nearly move the earth out of orbit.
With their big losing loser negotiated retreat, at least we’re all still here.
Except for those murdered by the bloodthirsty Netanyahooo whose trial should have started today.
Hell, yes! I would wear a Flippy McCrushnuts shirt! Thank you, Jeff. Any Saturday we get treated to that meme AND the throw our heads back in laughter meme is a good Saturday.
today in "Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit" —
looks like the peace talking are going just swimmingly.
"BREAKING: Iranian forces have informed the Iranian negotiating delegation that a U.S. destroyer is moving from Fujairah Port toward the Strait of Hormuz.

https://x.com/clashreport/status/2042955545997422927
There are no peace talks but there sure is a lot of Trump shit talking.
Couchman is on his way to the talks.
Like that will help.
I want the Iranians to tell Trump they want him, face to face, in Tehran. Nobody else.
And then, in a flash, the ICC can issue a warrant for his arrest and then swoop down and pick him up.
Hey, I have fantasies, too....
Yeah, I was secretly going there, too!
Denise: wouldn't THAT be 'loverly'? We could 'negotiate' for his release - take lots of time, one of the conditions being that he never hold office in ANY capacity...AND be put in prison for his 34 convictions PLUS tried at The Hague for war crimes. Sigh - I can dream too, can't I?
I don't think we should even make a pretense of negotiating for his release. Just let them keep him forever.
Gets us off the hook for the expense. Let them try him, convict him, and dump him in an oubliette.
Yup! Well, he can bring Barron with him.
Couchfuck couldn’t close an outhouse door in rural Appalachia
Couchman, Waxworks Slenderman, and the NYC Real Estate guy who is just as dumb as Trump. I feel like this thing is in good hands, don't you?
Larry, Moe and Curly personified!
Popcorn, please....
Lol, he’ll say something incredibly stupid and/or insulting.
And then throw his wife under the bus.
I think Kushner is on his way with his sweaty little palm out. That should help, no?
I keep trying to come up with an appropriate "Ottoman Empire" remark suitable for JD and his preference for couches!
Oh now I feel better! 😝🫣🤪
Right On Kay!
“He’s trying to bullsh*t his way through it.” - atrupar.bsky.social
(Hell why not it’s worked up til now😒)
his entire wastrel LIFE has been one of utter bullshittery.

Funny how the feds all HONOR a frk’n MEMO abt not indicting a sitting president… meanwhile in other news, the Constituiition(?!?!?)
Yup that’s all that Orange Shitstain does 🙄 Weasel Dick MFKR
I like your style Morgan!
WTF? Does Hegseth think one destroyer is gonna open the strait? It's just target practice for the Iranians. It would be ludicrous if it wasn't risking life and limb of our personnel.
Supposedly the destroyer went from one side to the other to prove there were no mines previously… everything this Dept. of War does is lunacy Doc!
Risking the ship and all hands to strut and brag is stupid, pointless, and dangerous. Just like this whole regime
They’re acting like eighth graders. But in this case, in a dangerous situation.
I would say pre-schoolers
Agreed Doc! I taught special ed 4th graders, and they would have known this was a bad idea!
How about the fact that Trump is now going to automatically register all 18-25 year old males in the draft. Normally the states do that, so is this a back door way to try to get at voter rolls in the Blue States? Before I wrote a piece about how family's should send their daughters abroad, but now I am going to say send your son abroad to university. I think this one applies to both.
https://lindaweide.substack.com/p/study-abroad?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
I will advise my 23 year old grandson to sign up right after Barron signs up.
Abby, several of my friend's son's have to register for the draft in the US and another country. A country in the EU that the US may be fighting against. It is not a good situation.
Awful! This grandson was born in England, but his parents were expats, so he's now a US citizen. I will fight not to have anyone I know not go fight the orange maniac's crazy wars!
The problem with that idea as I see it is that all the wealthy people will actually do that, so only the poor and uneducated will be left to fight trump's war. But then I believe that's been his (and the Heritage Foundation's) plan all along.

Interesting. Food for thought. Thanks.
Yes, and our precious men and women are on board. No thoughts and fucking prayers will help them. So worrisome! Now would be a good time for TACO to taco outta there.
And isn't THAT a gesture of peace right there. Send a destroyer down the strait. Works for me. Plus . . . is it true in a world of lies?
The Iranian negotiator in Pakistan reportedly called it a violation of the ceasefire.
Target, or detonate some water mines.
Neither one is a good use of a destroyer and her crew
It is all batshit crazy!
He'll say he didn't think they would really do it. Just bluffing.
Risking the actual lives and limbs of our military personnel is the hegseth version of a video game. I really, really, really hope he stands trial for war crimes.
Whoa, Jeff. This aggressive posturing proves once again that the U.S. regime cannot be trusted. Ever. Dump, Hegseth and Bibi are not serious about ending this war. The Iranian negotiators should just get up and walk out.
Except it's not them doing the "negotiating". It's Kushner, Witkoff, and (theoretically) Vance. What could possibly go wrong? 🫤
The only thing Kushner is negotiating is how much money can he get out of the deal.
Exactly. I wouldn’t trust those three to negotiate in a Turkish market.
👆🎯
I desperately want Jared, Eric and Donnie Jr grilled for weeks in Congress once the Democrats take over. They hectored Hunter Biden for borrowing a few thousand dollars from his dad for a car — which had nothing to do with our government or getting rich from it. Now it's their turn.
Indeed!
Yet maga is like: 🦗🦗🦗❓

True, but it's been widely reported that Vance wasn't in agreement with the strikes on Iran. Maybe that's more comfortable for Iran's side of the negotiating?
Vance wanted quick, total destructive strikes, I’m not sure why they want him in there, unless they want to watch a stunod on a couch!
They all belong in jail.
One of the best things that could happen in this country, is an overview of the entire real estate business itself - the legalities and tax structure for them is insane, and most people don't know how little oversight they're subjected to.
Back in the day, the French used a form of imprisonment known as an oubliette. Once you were thrown down in one, there was literally no way out of it. Thrown down and forgotten about for eternity.
I could see that for them.
Lèse-majesté! Love oubliette’s, guillotines and the basket displaying the cretinous wastrels heads. The French certainly had a way with punishment!
Tru dat.
There is no discussion until Israel ceases its bombing on Lebanon…
Which Bibi won't do. He will have to stand trial in his corruption cases if the war is over.
I read that the trial was supposed to begin today (on Shabbas??), but haven't seen an update.
Bibi and Donny should be sharing a prison cell. I wouldn't mind if they stuffed Vladi in there too.
Sounds like a great drama, one shiv, three evil men.
I'd settle for them sharing a grave plot
You’re so very correct again Natalie.
And BiBi isn’t likely to do that because he would have to go back on trial. As long as a state of “war” continues, he can stay out of court.
Apparently this is not the case. The court is determined to keep going.
They won't talk to Israel anyway.
You’re right Patrick. And Boom Boom Bibi will never stop bombing unless Trump threatened to stop funding Bibi’s war machine. But that ain’t gonna happen.
NO it ait ogen!
Backwards, just like the idiots to represent as diplomats.
More like dipshits
Bibi is serious about keeping it going until he takes over the whole Middle East.
Or as long as he needs to avoid criminal prosecution. His trial will be held up as long as Israel is at war.
Yeah, he really means it too. Fuck Israel.
He's going to keep going as long as he needs to in order to keep his sorry ass out of prison.
He requires space for all Israelis to return for the eschatological process to happen.
Well, Pete seems to think he can bring about Armageddon. Think that'll do it?
Nailed it.
You’re right Punkette. Bibi doesn’t want to go anywhere near peace. The more war fronts the better. He really does deserve the Nobel War Prize; although, Dumpy Trump could give him a run for his money.
Haha, Frank! Nobel War Prize! I love that 😆
On the one hand, I'm kinda-sorta rooting for Iran, but on the other hand, those troops could be dead by lunchtime and that is unacceptable, tragic. But it will keep the war going full steam if Iran destroys a destroyer. Putin makes bank, Bibi delays corruption charges and commits more genocide, and Trump manipulates the stock market.
And all only at a cost of thousand or so of our military.
Its so sick, but I've seen it time and again. They should never give power over weapons to stupid, vain men.
After GeeDumbya Bush and his BS wars, can we all agree that we should never let sociopaths with daddy issues in our White House ever again? Thank you.
Silly me, I thought "W" would be the worst president of my lifetime.
I know, right? How naive we were. Dear God, I hope that Drumpf will be the worst president ever. It is sickening to imagine someone worse being in charge.
Oh damn, me too!
AMEN to that! Man, did we underestimate the potential for insanity and stupidity!
I'm so old I remember thinking Nixon would be the worst President of my lifetime.
Me too, but I was a cocky teenager convinced we would get better. I figured we would legalize marijuana within a decade, because it made no sense to use a euphoric plant to put people in jail. Not when alcohol was legal.
I know. I sometimes still shake my head. I remember how much I despised Cheney and now ... I don't know, he doesn't seem as bad as what's happening now.
I know, right? Evil Darth Cheney couldn’t get rid of the bastard!
They’ve been giving this power for years and years.
That’s right rlritt; but, the horse (‘s ass) is already out of the barn and now it’s “Whoopi, let’s blow some shit up — boys will be boys and 5 year olds will be 5 year olds — the rest of us be damned.
So fucking sadly true. 💔🇺🇸
I wish the right had your perception, but they are too busy flag-humping.
And couches.
Good point!
Putin isn’t the only one making bank over all this either. Polymarket is taking some mighty big bets over all sorts of 47’s dumbass shit.
What’s not to like Leigh?…except everything
This is not good. If I were in the military, I'd refuse the orders.
Meantime, our hard earned money is being used for war crimes and flushed down the toilet.
And we are $39T in debt, largely thanks to tax cuts for billionaires and other assorted Rethuglican BS.
But we can't afford healthcare!
where’s maga on the debt:
🦗🦗🦗❓
Dunno. My guess is that the MAGAts are blissfully unaware of the damage that Dear Leader and his fluffers have done to our country.
But THE DEBT! And (Biden was too soft on) CHINA! And NO MORE WARS! And THE FILES! And INFLATION! And something something CHECKS!… yeah right
No mention of Melanoma's presser on Thursday?
didn't I write a whole post about it yesterday?
Wish more people would mention the ludicrousity (new word!) of her blithering from behind a podium with the Presidential Seal. WTAF.
Yes, you did! And, by God, it was a doozy!
The headline on it was absolute genius!
Yes, because you pointed out her use of "trival????" instead of the normal usage of "trivial". I'm thinking her Einstein Visa was a HOAX!
It was hard for her to read the notes in English.
So?
Just now, you're thinking of this?
The claim that she has a degree in architecture?
The claim that she speaks 7 languages?
Was any of the above a clue, maybe?
I was being sarcastic. I think anyone with a quarter of a brain knew what she was and was not from the get go.
she actually meant to say it was "drivel"
I would like for Jeff to belabor the Melania thing once more. It's so entertaining.
Yes. But Saturdays are special.
(Wayne voice): “Now Jeff… your pills…” 😆😬
Why is Melania crashing out?
Is she afraid Amanda might spout
come clean and confess
About the whole Epstein mess
Could that be what this is about?
She could confess to a veritable Circus Maximus with Donnie, Melania and an assorted menagerie of barnyard animals and it wouldn't make an iota of difference.
It may someday, when there is an actual functioning DOJ
I hope you're right. But the next two plus years will be a total waste.
The time since 1/20/25 has been, so why expect anything different
Perfect limerick, Doc!
There is all kinds of speculation about why the first hooker of the united states held that presser. Melania can be subpoenaed to testify regarding her own involvement and knowledge of Epstein-Trump-Russia, and she's trying to get out in front of the story. OR - she's seen Pam Bondi willingly make statements and the Republicans circle the wagons around her with "But she's already told you everything; she doesn't need to be under oath". Melania is hoping for the same treatment.
And that idiot Comer set a precedent of having subpoenaed a former First Lady. Maybe M will beg off saying she’s no lady, as you suggested
And Pammie Jo is no longer AG. Note Hillary Clinton here.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She’s afraid JizBrain Maxwell will spout
Was thinking maybe she heard he might ‘resign’ or be 25th-ed - so she might lose some protection?…
That distraction only lasted a nano-Scaramucci. A femto-Liz Truss.
Wow, you skipped pico and went straight to femto.
Nuts, I knew I took a wrong turn at Pico and Alverado.
Or maybe a wrong turn at Albequerque.
Bugs Bunny always did at Albukoikee
That's right, Doc!
No mention of Melanoma’s presser on National news last night.
That’s strange.
But we did have an $$$ NASA distraction so there’s that
Frk’n VERY interesting
According to Trump we are now "clearing" the straight, I would point out that Ukraine doesn't have a navy either and Russia is missing a couple of capital ships.
That video of Trump as a Teletubby was pretty much on point.
STRAIT, people… please…
We could start calling it the Queer of Hormuz
Shouldn’t we be talking to someone in the Israeli government besides Netanyahu? He doesn’t want be in prison so he will keep on killing and destroying everything he can. The International Criminal Court has a warrant for him for war crimes.
They should spike his drink, and drop him off at the Hague.
Axios is the only news outlet saying the US destroyer went through. Guessing not true?
Axios is owned by German right-winger company Axel Springer.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/apr/13/axel-springer-ceo-mathias-dopfner-leaked-messages-reported
I missed a live following of the peace talks by Iran War Dispatches with Tim Mak. I any case, Malcolm Nance was saying yesterday that the US might try to do a stupid move like power through the Straight with a line of ships, which means that some of them might get blown up by land mines. We shall see what happens.
Meanwhile, I think that Trump should give Hungary our National debt. We owe 39 trillion. Since Orbán is such a whiz with the economy, let him take that on.
[encore] STRAIT, people… please… 🙄
Oops :P And it's not even a straight strait, it sorta bends...
To ME, that uncaring fuckwit WANTS one of our ships taken out just so he can claim Iran 'deserves' to be 'bombed back into the Stone Age' (a line probably given to him by goebbels/miller). I wouldn't put ANYTHING past either of those 2 beyond-evil bastids. The lives of our military mean NOTHING to them anymore than a plastic figurine of a toy soldier would. Now they want to DRAFT American boys on their 18th birthdays - except Barron of course - who's turning 20. NO frump has ever served in any military - y'know, the suckers and losers as he described them to John Kelly, himself a GOLD STAR Father!
Jesus Fucking Christ
Sounds about right. I know you were already thinking this!
No surprise that the idiot con
Is getting outflanked and played by Iran
He's always drooling for plunder
But makes everything a blunder
That's our "leader," pedo predator Don
Every day is a new national embarrassment and one filled with anxiety. We can't live like this. Where is congress and why aren't they doing their job??? We need a Goldwater moment.
If only Congress was alive and could see what is happening.
Time for a strongly worded letter to President Fumbledick!
aka The Schumer Strategy
And what do you propose he do in the MINORITY? He's held the line on not funding DHS.
I'm glad he did that. But to me he and Jeffries have not resisted forcefully enough. I agree with the House Dems who file for impeachment even though it will fail, that sort of thing
For ONCE.
I think they’re all wearing those horse glasses so they can’t see on the sides- there’s a word for what I mean….hoping for Novembers midterm elections 🤞
I compare Squeaker Johnson to Sgt. Schultz on "Hogan's Heroes."
"I see nothing! I know nothing!"
Tunnel vision?
Daniel, congress is Rip Van Winkling us (and they think we don’t notice)
As of April 2026, House Democrats have filed new articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump (who took office Jan 20, 2025), citing actions in Iran, Gaza, and domestic use of the National Guard. The resolution, introduced by Rep. John Larson, faces long odds in the Republican-controlled House.
At least the attempt is out there signaling that there is resistance.
Where all legitimate articles of impeachment go to die.
Elections matter. Even just for congress.
Absolutely!
Where are the REPUBLICAN Congress critters whose JOB it is to hold him accountable?! ALL the Democratic lawmakers save a couple) are doing THEIR jobs, we need to remind ourselves of that fact. WHEN we don't hold the majority it gives THEM 'the cards' - however, donny demento imagines HE has all the power - until they grow their balls big enough to 25th Amendment him..
Republicans' job is to prop Trump up. Period. End.
They would have to cut short their planned long vacations and return to DC.
Yes Mingo and where’s the guy saying “have you no decency sirs?”
Jeff’s words are better: “What the fuck is wrong with you guys (perv’s)?”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If only there was tech to have the Flippy McCrushnuts display as a GIF on the shirt.
that was my very thought
I would buy one for every member of my family. That GIF is my favorite with the ICE slipping on ice a close second.
Me too! I smile every time Jeff posts it!!! 🤩
or digital billboards across the nation
I say that about Dump- all his rally antics on billboards - making fun of disabled people etc. with some of his stupid phrases that makes no sense at all- long blinkes when he’s not the center of attention- the list goes on Flo….
and on , and on, and on
Someone's gonna do it
You could do it with a QR code.
I would wear the shit out of THAT!!!!
And he sent JD Vance, the Jesse Watters of tge Executive Branch, as chief negotiator. Look for Vance to say something so stupid a clueless middle school bully would have too much shame to utter it, then stand there waiting forever for Persian Daddy's love. We're doomed
Envision Vance braying at the Iranians "You never once thanked us! You never said thank you!"
Tbf, they probably should. Never in their wildest dreams did they think they'd walk out of this with the US humiliated to this extent, a giant revenue stream from the Strait, and leverage to prevent attacks on their allies. Never bet against Trump's vanity, or his track record of breaking everything he touches.
Best-selling author (it pains me to write that) JD Vance Iranian Negotiation BINGO:
- He makes an Aladdin joke,
- He tries to make a “Persian Golf” joke
- He tries to lighten the mood by wearing a Burqa
- He makes sure not to cover his eyes in the Burqa so they can see his eyeliner
- He claims he buys his eyeliner from the Iranian guy who owns the Bodega down the street.
- He tries to show how much empathy he has for the “Brown” people because he married one
He shows his willingness to initiate sexual congress with the random ottoman and Persian rug.
🤣🤣🤣
He has femto charisma
Doc, I searched through two pages of comments on Femto till someone finally said what it was and have come to the conclusion that is a very good, accurate and precise description! I’m afraid if I delve into Femto any more I might get sucked into a black hole.
It was covered back in college physics. The prefixes denoting metric units have in the 40+ ensuing years become much more common-knowledge but back then nano, pico, femto, giga, tera, and peta were very obscure
Doc, I guess I blew it in how you were using Femto. I guess I stumbled onto a modern day usage that is totally different. I’ll do some more digging
Don't feel badly, Frank. It was sort of an inside joke, I think aimed at Mr Blue Voting Bastard, who referenced femto earlier. Scroll up and look for his posts.
And Vance is over there warning them, "Don't try to play me!" Yeah, hon, they won't have to try, you fuckers are doing a stellar job of playing yourselves and taking all of us down in the process. Vance is a joke.
I think the Iranians requested him. They didn't want Kushner or Witkoff because that's who they were negotiating with when America started bombing Iran. They hate Trump. Vance was the highest ranking guy they kinda-sorta trusted.
And all Kushner wanted to know was how much was any agreement going to personally enrich him.
Isn’t that the sad sick truth, rlritt?
Trust. Right. Pretty sure the Iranians don't trust ANYONE in this regime. Guessing.trump sent him to have a scapegoat when shit hits the fan. Damaging vance helps rubio, who trump seems to be mildly boosting.
Interesting. And terrifying.
If they trust him at all they are crazy!
They'd be crazy to trust ANYBODY in this administration.
I know you’re right Betsy; but jeez, if Vance is the best we got, only couches will be thrilled (or terrified)
You're so right. Sigh.
IMO, he sent Couchfuck on a suicide mission. Vance has absolutely zero chance of success. especially with Thing One and Thing Two accompanying him. I doubt that the Orange Pustule is that strategic. Most likely, Stephen Miller dripped poison in his ear. But still.
The person who should be negotiating with the Iranians is the Secretary of State--Marco Rubio. He has the gravitas (such as it is) and the experience; while the 3 Bears have neither.
Orange has already decided he wants Rubio to succeed him and not Vance.
Things can only get more interesting from here on out.
Did anyone else hear Hegseth say “Straight up Vermouth” instead of “Strait of Hormuz?”
Kegseth thinks it's the Straight Up Vermouth.
Lol
lol Mike— you got me!
After propping up the Argentine peso, lifting sanctions on Iranian oil and enabling them to now ransom the Strait, no surprise that he spends our national treasure helping dictator Orban. But okay, our own people don't need food, housing or healthcare. No wonder he's a rethuglican
Should Orban lose -- a distinct possibility -- look for Trump to start talking about how the election was "rigged."
I wish that our last election had not been rigged. It most certainly was, though.
Oh boy, Second Verse Same as the First…
Just wait until the crew of Artemis II sees their share of the bill for plucking then out of the Pacific last night.
I loved the fact that the NASA operations manager is from country of Columbia, one of the astronauts is a woman and the communications person is from Asia....wonder if ICE will target them.
I saw that. Our son was adopted from Colombia. Unfortunately, didn’t catch her last name, her first name is Lily. I guess I’ll have to look it up.
Villareal
Thank you, I’ll let Mild Jr know.
Oops I just googled and it's actually got 2 Rs...and not to be a pedant but she uses Lili (saw it on her jacket last night) short for Liliana.
Por on Doc. Spot on
No “Por” but rather “Spot on” Doc. My fat thumbs do me no favors.
To the little blood clot inside the World's Worst Human trying to break free: go Baby, go!
Yyyyeeeeeessssssssssss!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
With as much aspirin as he's consuming on a daily basis, he probably has no blood clots.
A massive brain or gastric bleed, thanks to all that aspirin-thinned blood, might do the honor instead.
"Care for a baby aspirin, Mr President? They're chewable."
I agree with you 100%!
“ I think I can I think I can”
That picture of Lindsey is worth a thousand words, problem is, I don't have a thousand words to waste on that MFer, but I love the drunk ass look on his face and I wonder if Pete was driving the limo.
If South Crackerlina Dems don't use that, the Little Mermaid bubble wand pic, and the video of his drunken cackling and blither on Air Force 1 in oppo advertising this year, they don't deserve to win. Every public utterance from him is opposition gold.
South Crackerlina Dems 😂🤣
Big Daddy, I think you need to offer your services to the Dems. We need all the help we can get. What’s obvious to you and the rest of us often seems to slip through the cracks.
Usually get a response of 'okay, old man. Thanks for your input.' Much like when I reach out to the red menaces repping SC.
Thank you Jeff.
I hope State AG's and local DA's are already looking at indictments and prosecutions of any member of Trump's criminal organization that has committed, directed, or aided state and local crimes such that the federal pardoning of a criminal act does not apply.
Trump. Patel. Noem. Bovino. Homan. Bondi. Vaught. Musk. Gabbard. Rubio. Vance. Election deniers. -all of them need to enjoy years of Zen time in orange jumpsuits.
I'm satisfied if it is served in a State prison.
Althought there would be a certain rough justice if it was served in El Salvador.
I would welcome any form of justice applied to this group of criminally corrupt sociopaths for their self-dealing, cruelty, and depraved indifference.
The thing is knowing they might go to jail, will probably make them do whatever they can to stay in office. Even canceling elections. Trump has already warned that if Democrats take Congress in Nov, he will be impeached. We should expect all possible ways they can prevent or steal the elections including violence.
Very true. The deranged criminal elect is a cornered animal and is doing everything he can to misdirect from the crimes and corruption of this administration (and his previous administration). While he continues to destroy, test, and probe any remaining societal guardrails -the GOP is complicit in the supportive actions and/or silence.
Absolutely correct. We need to take this very seriously.
He has so far crashed every guardrail, disregarded every norm, and broken any laws he found inconvenient.
He’s a cornered “extreme narcissist” - nothing worse than that.
With you all the way George, to all your posts
Or Alligator Alcatraz
Only if Ron DeSantis was sent there as well.
100% -- T💩p said he was going to pardon everyone in his maladministration, but that won't work with state charges.
State prosecutions will be the only way, since President Pedo plans to issue a blanket pardon to his entire administration.
Exactly Mary!
No cushy Federal summer camps for any of them, please.
I'd rather eat spam, peas and liver
Or live in a van by the river
Than be a soulless jackflunky
Scratchin' pits like a monkey
Than to take take and take, never givers.
Their bottomless pit of ill need
Will never be filled with their greed
They're wretched and foul
They don't smile, only scowl
If you prick them, they never will bleed.

Haha, love the Matt Foley reference!
Their "America First" bullshit sucks
But SShitler and Kegsbreath could give two fucks
They stupidly did spoil
The Gulf's flow of oil
The bargain price: billions of bucks
(our money, that is)
We are a limerick tag team!
👏👏👏👏 Doc
I was just watching that and I thought I'd try to incorporate it somehow.
David Spade just could not stop from laughing
I saw that, too.
Forgot about the Matt Foley skits on SNL. Farley was awesome wasn’t he
He sure was. "I live in a van DOWN BY THE RIVER!!"
I believe that Bob Odenkirk wrote that scene.
👏👏👏👏 Frosty!
Thank you, Pamela!
Another good one Frosty!
Thanks so much, Frank!
Jeez. I'm like 250 yrs old in Trump years. C'mon Saturday be a pal and give us a fucking break!
I was trying to remember whether I had bought new tires for the car I sold to my sister last year.
I told her that last year was a decade ago.
I bought 2 new tires yesterday.
Wait- it was yesterday, right?
unmmm… I think I did
Now you’re swimming in MY pool Dave
Petayears, the contrary to femto
Sorry… I laughed at your post‼️🤭
I long for the leadership of the Democratic presidencies when I was not reading social media posts of an angry, old grievance-hoarder in the morning, wondering if today is the day he will destroy the world. It is like a kick in the groin every day! Thanks, Trump voters! He's wandering around with his mental illness and our nuclear codes!
It was a rigged election for a fact!
Absolutely.
I just hope Amanda stays alive long enough to tell her story about Melly and her hubby. 🤣 that is priceless! Whatta week!😳
Susan, they make the perfect couple, Melly and Smelly.
HAHAHA!!!!
I’m eagerly waiting for this. I love it when the dirt finally surfaces on these low lives and I’m in dire need of some entertainment, even though it might be harrowing.
Same here. They deserve ALL of it!
Susan, if you really care - buy her book! I’m sure it’s a winner!
LOL! I'm sure! 👀
A week for the records. And still no journalist steadfast enough to win the JeffTiedrichChallenge™️
The entire planet won’t be forgetting how a sadist, wicked 5 year old and his cruel enablers caused enough anxiety and mistrust by the former “great power” that used to be the United States to nearly move the earth out of orbit.
With their big losing loser negotiated retreat, at least we’re all still here.
Except for those murdered by the bloodthirsty Netanyahooo whose trial should have started today.
Epstein Epstein Epstein
On target AuntTeeFa!
Great opening GIF. Hits my mood this crazy fucking weekend.
Hell, yes! I would wear a Flippy McCrushnuts shirt! Thank you, Jeff. Any Saturday we get treated to that meme AND the throw our heads back in laughter meme is a good Saturday.
That would be a great Tshirt! 🤣🤣
