Trump crawled out of his rat infested motel to go to Montana and attack Senator John Tester.
The reason he did this is because he hates Tester for keeping drunk Ronny Jackson from heading Veterans Affairs. Trump was at his pathetic hate rally calling Tester fat.
We can’t lose our majority in the Senate, so PLEASE support Senator Tester. 🙏💙
I imagine that his winning the state by 16 points or something was a factor. He needs, NEEDS to be in front of a friendly audience, even if they have the collective IQ of a mini-fridge. No new votes there. Great use of your Trump campaign donations, idiots.
What was the total price of that MT trip? Fuel, pilots, airport fees, pay for #Turd hangers on to fly to a blood red state? #Turd hates Dem senator John Tester for keeping drug supply Dr Ronnie Jackson off VA slot.
I'm actually ok with that -- we don't know who he'll be replaced with on the ticket. It would be ok if JayDee got the top slot and brought someone like Cucker Tarlson to run as veep, but they might actually hit on someone people liked, as unlikely as that seems. At the rate the Blob is deteriorating, I like Harris's chances...
Just like Georgia,Trumpy spews some hate at his enemies,real or imaginary,and then flies back to the roach motel,to rage-tweet on his failing app and whine on Fox,or sometimes whine ABOUT Fox not doing enough.
What Trump does that I like to see is how he walks out of Trump Tower to a nearly empty street...and waves like he's in front of a crowd. He did the same thing at an airport looking out over an empty tarmac save for a few workers, and again waves and gave his clenched fist salute. He's either totally demented or the neediest man on the planet.
The big reason Donny went to Montana was because it’s a short trip to Jackson, Wyoming which is where he held a big fund raiser with the Jackson billionaires. It’s all about money-he doesn’t care about promoting the GOP Senatorial candidate (whatever his name is)-it’s all about Donny & his money
He's not going to beat MTG in a district that 77% white. They did the same with Marcus Flowers. Holly McCormack might have had a chance. It's a conservative, racist district.
Is it Flowers again? I supported him last time around, but NW Georgia is chock full of blood red extremists who obviously don't care about being represented in Congress.
I hope I'm wrong about this but I'm willing to bet the Harris campaign has NO field offices in MT, which one would think could give at least something of a downballot bump. I went to phone bank on Wednesday here in MN, and was shocked to learn there's no Harris/Walz campaign office in MN, and there's not going to be. Supposedly campaign views it as a lock, and it probably is; however, Hillary only won by 40k votes here in 2016 & our local gov only came on within the last week. I said I want to talk to undecideds bc I'm enthusiastic about this ticket, and got referred to a PAC in Chicago to make calls into Wisconsin.
Especially with all the R voter suppression fuckery, it's alarming if the campaign isn't even trying anywhere other than swing states.
A lot of the red states were purple under Obama. Esp w the OTHER fuckery of the electoral college, for the party to walk off & shrug f these rubes seems...unwise.
The location of offices is often highly strategic. Maybe Tester doesn't want a Harriss office in Montana because he would like to stress his independence from her. She might be an albatross around his neck in MT. I can't imagine Tester asking Harris to do a campaign event in MT.
On the other hand, MN has been reliably Democratic state, so maybe it would be a waste of money to set up an office there. I think they will open one up now that Walz is on the ticket.
Another thought: if you live in a sizable town it could be that the county Democratic Party is putting on a phone banking effort, and or possibly the state Democratic Party.
That’s the reason we are going through this bullshit ! No Citizens United and the crazies have far less power and influence to put the country through this crap every election cycle! Sooner or later they will buy the Presidency! They’ve got half of Congress and 6 fascist justices on the Supreme Court!Throw in the state governments that they control and the scales are all the fuck out of whack ! Money 💴 is going to be the downfall of the United States!🇺🇸The remaining democracies fall like dominoes once that happens!🤕😵💫😵
For the last two years, I’ve created a list of folks I watch closely to re-elect or support as candidates on their first run for office. I give tiny donations, but that allows me to spread those donations out to as many as I have on my list. A $5 can make a difference!
tRump calling ANYONE ELSE fat is so rich. Oh, yeah, remember when drunk doc Ronny was the WH physician and he said president porky was 239 lbs? People on social media posted pics of a very buff Colin Kaepernick, who was a GENUINE 239 lbs., albeit a few inches taller. But still, uh, they did not look like they weighed the same.
He hides his true height and weight,he hides his medical records,going so far as having his goons storm the WH doctors office,he hides his grades,he hides his tax returns,he hides his real wealth,he hides behind his NDAs, everything about him is fake or made up,he relies on Foxaganda to con the cult,and who are we kidding?? He ran for president because his reality show failed,and he needed a new grift,and he ran again to keep his sorry ass out of prison.
Thank goodness for the edit button, because we on here strive for accuracy and literacy, unlike the other platforms. For example, on Substack I've never seen people confuse your and you're like the MAGAs do on Twitler
We know he wears lifts in his shoes-that’s why he walks leaning forward & apparently can’t stand up straight with shoulders back like a normal person. Remember when he got hit by something at his rally in Pa where there was an assassination attempt, he was screaming “let me get my shoes” while the SS was trying to haul his fat ass up off the ground? He didn’t want anyone to see the lifts in his shoes
djt is definitely heavier than 239, but he might (*might*) not weigh much more than that. Muscle is much denser than fat, so 239 lb of muscle takes up far less space than 239 lb of fat. Doctors can verify this.
(And, I know this from experience: Bc of serious illness, I'm down to 105 lb; when I weighed that in college, I was about a size 6, but because I've lost so much muscle recently, I'm now a size 10. Fat definitely takes up more space.)
Calling Tester fat?? Boy, that's A+ projection for you. And does he ever look at some of his supporters? Many of them should ask for Ozempic for Xmas. Trump is so out of control that he's almost like a made up cartoon character. Who else has ever acted like this? I don't even remember famous alcoholic/drug addicts acting this bizarre all the time. If he wasn't a threat to our government, he'd be the best comedy routine ever.
Why no orange make up at motel- a logo "rambling train wreck"? Not smart enough to provide microphones so questions can be heard, but yeah, he wants nuclear launch codes again.
No mics for the reporters was intentional. Observers couldn't hear the question so Trump just started his usual bullshit hate rally stump speech as an "answer" to an unheard question. The TV networks gave him a free televised hate rally. Just like they did in 2016. Morons.
For once Lawrence O'Donnell has redeemed himself by excoriating the shameful pandering and subservient enabling they demonstrated at that circus event at Motel-A-Lardo.
I tweeted @lawrence and @msnbc. Thanking Lawrence for his excellent coverage over the years, and told MSNBC "if you fire L for telling the truth, you're going to lose millions of Lawrence fans.
I tweeted @msnbc unloading my frustration with them carrying his lie-fest live. He only lies, then they (MSNBC) go into fact check mode for hiurs. WTF? HE ALWAYS LIES. CUT OFF ALL COVERAGE OF HIM. Unless he's convicted.
A disclaimer……the following statements are more than likely lies or demented rant’s please be advised this is hazardous to your mental health! Children up to the age of 65 are advised not to watch !😅
I think the networks should cover him & then factcheck him because it’s negative publicity & people who don’t pay attention to politics get more opportunities to see what an idiot he is. It’s horribly wrong to cover his crap like it’s normal & there’s no difference between the parties (the way a lot of uninformed people think). CNN does that but I still watch it sometimes
Bc he seems even more unhinged lately, I've started wondering why ivanka hasn't tried to step in and help. Maybe she has but has been ineffective, or maybe other people who are close to him are so invested in his winning on Nov. that they're badmouthing her to djt )so that he ignores her advice) or are keeping her at bay.
I don't imagine that she loves him -- I don't think that he, or any of his wives, or any of his children know what love is. But I would think she'd be worried about her brand -- about how negatively most people will view her, down the road, for not taking away his car keys now (metaphorically speaking).
I wondered why he had such a bone to pick with Tester. I can’t imagine how HORRIBLE it would have been to have Ronny “Johnson” as the head of the VA. Thank God Tester blocked him.
Saw a photograph of that rally. It was...kinda sad. Looked like a YUGE crowd of a couple of hundred. Of course, that's about half the population of Montana, so there's that...
Food (pardon the pun) for thought. Early retirement for you. They'd sell out in an hour. I'm sure MAGA would loan you a "bleach blonde bad built butch body" for the ads. MTG might be free this weekend. Love me some Jasmine Crockett LOL.
Mark, you could imbed a "Pocket Pal" into a generic cushion which could then replace any other couch cushion; that way the incels could obtain entertainment from any couch they have, "on hand".
I did not recognize Barr in Brainworm's bear necromancy confessional video. But I was like who the f is that ridiculous woman listening to him like a little perched parakeet? So, it figures it's her.
is there any help out there available, professional or not, qualified to go into the realm of Roseanne Barr crazy? And if so, how did they achieve to that level?
When you see Rosanne having this discussion with her son as well as a sitting Congress person, I am lost for words when I realize that there are people who actually think this way. And not only that...but they have no compunction to saying this stuff out loud and in public! And all three are just chatting as if it's a normal information-exchanging conversation!!!!
I can't even begin to wrap my mind around this!😵💫🤯😡
Jeff explained it one time. She was in a beach photo that looked like she only had three toes resembling a spork. Sometimes she is called "three toes" as well.
I eat at McD's all the time. So that's why their cheeseburgers are so tasty recently. Roseanne Barr should marry the Pillow Guy. They are truly NUTS. I don't feel with them it's an act.
She is a real piece of work. Makes me wonder why Tom Arnold, who unlike her is a sane person, ever married her. After their acrimonious divorce, she sniped at him by saying he had a small penis. He responded with "even a 747 is small when it lands in the Grand Canyon." Boom
I had the misfortune of catching RFK Jr.’s desperate need for attention that manifested in his dead bear cub story, and I thought in those fleeting moments he was telling Rosanne the story? I’m thinking damn if you’re in the room with her & SHE looks like the sane one that doesn’t bode well. Maybe it was all a fever dream 🐻🧔🏻♀️😵
"Maggot" Haberman made my day. She's complicit in the normalization of trump from 2015 onward. If the NYT had done it's fucking job then, with the 30 years of dirt they already had on the grifting con man, all of this misery could have been nipped in the bud eight years ago.
While Trump is shitting bricks over the NYT questioning him, because they are so out of practice with fact checking that they picked the wrong story to fact check, others are actually reporting. Trump was shocked because they never do this, which is why he is throwing a hissy fit on them, which if what I hear is true about his treatment of the MSM will soon escalate to death threats on their families, including the owner Sulzberger, while Biden sits back, out of the fray watching them reap what they sowed. Meanwhile, ProPublica just did a big reveal today with their story on Project 2025. They have been leaked 14 hours of training videos from the project which they summarize with clips to illustrate points so we can see just what weird looks like. At the end there is a link to all 14 hours. Please share it. Americans deserve to know what Trump has in store for them.
And please contribute to ProPublica if you can; they do an amazing job of shining light on things we need to know about, such as the two most corrupt SC "justices" in US history and their emotional-support billionaires.
(ETA: I love that final phrase. I can't take credit for it; I don't know who coined it.)
You're right about that. It really irritates me that Biden sits back and watches D☭Иald TЯUM₽ ‘s threats and crimes go unchecked and doesn't even encourage his worthless AG, Garland to do anything about it. I wish Garland was 1/10th as proactive and aggressive as Bill Barr was with TFG....Death threats should not be tolerated and we are so sick of seeing the orange stain get away with it so much...
I sure Hope Kamala Harris shakes down that 24-7 criminal factor a lot more than Biden has, or hasn't.
Garland's department has its hands full with criminal politicians and their acolytes. However, I am bothered that he is trying too hard to balance sides. Was much more effective at prosecuting Mendes, but then Mendes probably did not get millions from Egypt to defend himself like Trump did to win in 2016. Catching up is just hard with so much new crime coming to light. Bill Barr has a lot to account for too. He is the one who decided that he would not investigate Trump's illegal campaign funds from Egypt. HoweverJames, I have to beg to differ about Biden. He is letting his AG be independent, instead of what Trump plans to do to the Department of Justice. Also, he is not sitting back, he is busy. Remember we still have not freed all the hostages from Hamas. Also, if you do not know what he is busy with you should subscribe to the Substack What did Joe Biden do Today. I do. https://whatdidbidendotoday.substack.com/
I hope that if VP Harris is elected, Garland will consider retiring &she can choose someone with a more aggressive approach to political criminality without making it look like prosecuting political enemies for just having different opinions
Katy, I hope so too, but I also feel badly for Garland because we don't walk in his shoes and so much of what goes on is confidential. Republicans never worry about seeming impartial, at this point to the extreme. They are supercilious crooks. Dems have accepted their narratives of us, and bent over backwards to be fair and democratic. However, fair means everyone getting their needs met. In many ways it would be good if there was not a huge replacement of department heads because so much time gets lost. In terms of prosecuting Trump and a lot of other Republicans there might be a reset and more gets done, or it will seem like Kamala is dangerous and vindictive in the way we feel Trump is now, to many mainstream Americans.
So, I don't know. I just don't think it is that simple.
Teri, I have a book club to digest the poorly written prose we are slogging through with my Democrats Abroad group. I have read 10 chapters for far, which is about a third. Some chapters are longer than others. However, spending about 75 minutes a week discussing it is helping. An anti-shock pill might be more useful than an anti-nausea pill. To be on the safe side, take both. I recommend taking a look at these videos too. I started with Department of Education and when I realized that the funding plans are basically to provide Home Schooler families with money for each child, like a tuition from the government to parents for homeschooling them, was designed to appeal to Trump's White Christian Nationalist base, when according to people who have escaped the Duggar's church (of Shiny, Happy People Infamy), they don't teach their children any more standard curriculum than the Orthodox Jewish Schools of New York do, I could see how Public education would totally be destroyed in favor of people who don't feel education is important because they believe End of Days is Near. A good comparison of the differing end of days beliefs between Christian Nationalists and New Apostolic Reformers is by Andra Watkins, which is useful information when reading Project 2025. https://project2025istheocracy.substack.com/p/what-is-the-new-apostolic-reformation
People magazine wrote an article about P2025, and it's a good place to start -- the article is relatively short and is easy to digest. That article is also useful when you want to recommend something to people who don't follow the news and who are unlikely to read anything longer about it, but who want (or need) to know about it.
Also, the "How P2025 will ruin your life" Substack has been recommended:
Still reading some sections of it will help you to have a clearer picture. If you read nothing else, I recommend reading the forward because it lays it all out.
If MSM personnel get death threats, then their corporations need to provide security. Fuck tRump and MAGA threats. We don’t run away from bullies and certainly the press should not.
That’s how authoritarian administrations get rid of the press they don’t like-they put journalists in prison for publishing information that they don’t like. Or they make laws that state that the media can’t cover info that makes them look bad or will be sued and then run them out of business-like what happened in Hungary
I get that and we’re certainly not there unless tRump is elected and tries this tactic. So far he’s only “threatened” to sue the nyt which as we all know is his MO.
I’m not convinced he could such laws passed even with a house or senate majority.
NYT was infiltrated by the CIA in Operation Mockingbird during Cold War era, now they’re at the mercy of Sulzberger’s whims! Why anyone would think the Times is a bastion of truth is beyond comprehension! Excellent post Linda!
Patrick, we notice that the leaker leaks to ProPublican and not the NYT. People are getting the message. Who can you trust to do good with this information that the leaker is risking their job and perhaps personal safety to reveal. Clearly it is not the NYT.
Don’t overlook the role of Vance. Thiel, et al have placed him there to be President when Trump resigns or is ousted through. 25th A. — which given his mental deterioration wouldn’t have to be long.
An equally worrisome project is the effort to call a constitutional convention to propose Amendments (rewrites???) to the Constitution
The following information was sent to me after i posted on this. Supporting Common Cause might be a good idea!
“Common Cause has successfully blocked a bill in Colorado that would have had CO join in the call for an Article V constitutional convention. A total of 34 states are required for calling an Article V Convention of States.
This effort has been ongoing for decades. From linked Common Cause article below: "Too few Americans are even aware that a constitutional convention can be called, let alone that there would be no checks on its scope and further that the process to call one is well underway and being underwritten by some of the nation’s richest individuals."
Barbara thank you for all these links. I would worry about a Constitutional Convention under Republicans, but the Electoral College is a problem and can only gotten rid of through a CC. It is undemocratic. Also, we need to get more control of the Supreme Court. That being said, I would like to point out that the Heritage Foundation has created the role of Chief of Staff to be the door keeper for access to the President. In the first chapter of Project 2025, called White House Office, Rick Dearborn, a former Trump Assistant Chief of Staff, seems to have written a job description for himself. The way that role is set up is that everything going to the president pretty much gets funneled through the COS. There is also a discussion of signatures in person and using the auto signature. Well, when I read auto signature I wonder what is going on. In fact, they discuss the Vice President last in that section, which lets you know they don't see the VP as very important. Trump even said that aloud. While Thiel may want J.uvenile D.elinquent Vance to take over from Trump as his VP, through enacting Article 25, it seems like Kevin Roberts plans to have the COS well situated to run interference, even perhaps signing things that Trump does not even know about for him with the auto signature. As Trump said, the legislation to change the government is all drafted up waiting for him to sign on the first day. Looking at Trump's apparent work habits, I would think that he is not signing all of this stuff himself, so I see the COS taking over there with the auto signature. In any case, we need to make sure that Trump with his horrid Juvie VP does not get into office again.
Trump has no loyalty, no favorites, no friends, no loved ones. He is just a dictator waiting to happen to us. The NYT is so unused to fact checking DT that they forgot what he acts like when they do. Of course it is wasted because most of us have written them off, and as the training videos of the Project 2025 say, do not pay attention to the WaPo or NYT because no conservative trusts them.
So, who are they writing for? I think Kamala and Tim should not give any interviews until they stop treating Democrats like they are rabid dogs in heat. Clearly this election, of two normal people against two fascists has changed the rules of the game. The US MSM made themselves irrelevant by lacking any gravitas in the election. Now Candidates Kamala and Tim are going directly to the people (kinda how Clinton did with his town halls that were very popular) and they are responding to Trump and Juvie's lies by fact checking them in social media. So, as HCR put in her substack today, it was the Kennedy presidency that started the media actually following the candidates through their campaigns, and now Harris/Walz are letting that be Donnies old timey deal with the press, since he hand picks who can ask him questions and who can come, and with they are just circumventing them. The press chose to report on Donnie's babbling whiney lies, rather than Kamala and Tim getting the UAW endorsement. They deserve it.
Actually,Fox News was carrying the Harris/Walz event,while MSM was at Flab-a-lago,and while MSM wasn't fact-checking live, I watched it on Brian Tyler Cohen's livestream,and of course he did,when the BS was getting too deep. Fox has carry the Harris/Walz campaign events,so they can edit them to insert their 'theys' in them for the cult,'they' support open borders,'they' are persecuting you,'they' are coming for your guns,'they' are making you buy electric vehicles,'they' are coming for your gas appliances,etc,the list is endless,what 'they' are going to do.
They write for the donors behind the scenes, who know trump is an asswipe but will vote for him if they can keep his tax-cuts, and other wealthy who are greedy and like to be told they are above it all.
He's losing it. He didn't have an organized, calm brain to begin with. He is panicking and he will say whatever he can to make himself feel better for the moment. I think it's great. She, like many others, is so arrogant that she thought she was immune from his vitriol. That is absolutely the dumbest thing that anyone, including his family, could ever think. Everything Trump touches, dies. No more truer words have ever been spoken.
I can't wait for the day that MAGA turns on Trump. It won't be all of the kooks, but a good portion will distance themselves as much as they can from him when he loses or when they're no longer afraid of him. I think that's the key. They're afraid of him. Look how many more prominent GOP are against him publicly this election versus last time. Plus, just because you say you're for a candidate doesn't mean that you vote for him in the voting booth.
I read that many GOP Senators & Reps during #Turd impeachment 1 or 2 would have voted to impeach him, but in private convos were afraid for their own safety & their families from magas if they voted to impeach. Makes me sick when I think about it
Hi Jeff, as u know I’m in AZ, about 30 miles from the Harris/Walz rally last night.. it was hot, people were fired up and excited., I was very happy to see this type of enthusiasm, joy, happiness all around. The latest installment of Golf with MAGAS, as I went out Thursday, they attempted to throw me off my game with the most nasty comments concerning Harris/Walz.. I did not respond in kind, had the lowest score and..took the money. At lunch it kept up, I merely stated a logical concise rebuttal, and always prefacing their FAUX lies with… that’s a lie, now prove it… However the best way to trigger MAGA is remind these idiots their lord and savior was convicted on 34 felonies and is an adjudicated rapist, indisputable facts… Man, they get pissed as I sip my ice tea and watch them try and defend Donald, oh and count my $$$. Best to you and fellow travelers.😎
Good for you, for holding your ground. I always wondered if George Carlin was right when said in many of his stand-ups that Golf is a racist elitist sport...Maybe not, maybe so but one thing for sure it sure does attract a lot of MAGAs with very few exceptions.
Golf courses require a massive amount of land. Land is expensive. Most golf clubs are private (public entities typically don't have millions to waste on buying land, creating the course, and maintaining the course), and membership fees are high because of the reasons cited in paren. So people who join private golf clubs tend to be at least upper-middle-class, and many are wealthier than that.
In the US, wealth is still held mostly by white people, and that division was even more marked before about 1990. So, yes, golf is an elitist and racist "sport."
Good comment. I come from a family that attempted to join golf clubs in the early 60’s… Sorry, no Jews allowed.. so my father and friends started a club for Jews.. in Seattle.. we are all aware of how non whites are treated at courses private or public.. mainly Asians are members these days..
Hi Bruce, to get them rattled, as I do in the gym, I merely cite the felony convictions Donald has racked up..kind of gets in their heads and they fuck up the next shot😀BTW, living in AZ for the last 12 years, I assume all are MAGAS unless they prove me wrong 😀
Sooooo.... the picture of the Montana Trumpers. The guy wearing the brick suit...his jaunty facial hair doesn't go with that. 😂😂 Thank you for providing photos to prove these people exist.
And Roseanne Barr? These people have lost their fucking minds. I just cant. We should make people -referring to Marjorie Screwloose Greene....brilliant, BTW...take an IQ test and a Civics test BEFORE they run for office. 🤦♀️
Your word choices! “pernicious fuckery,” “opened in the shitter-closed in the shitter,” “Big Sad,” “fucktangle of insanity,” …I mean….kudos to your educators (and friends) for teaching vocabulary so eloquently! hahaha. The whole shit faced maggots are so depressed-and it brings a big ass smile to my cute little face! hahahahah
I wonder what could be the cumulative IQ of all those magnificent maga specimens. Mmhh… all in all, 50. I rounded it. Much under the true moron level. I was laughing at the guy with the brick-a-like design suit. You made my day dear. Thank you!
I hope he goes after “the sick, failing, New York Times” with both barrels(lawsuits)! Maybe their editorial board will remember that the only way they continue to exist is in a robust democracy.
Exactly! Maybe Joe Kahn will assign a piece to Douthat and Brooks about the ways in which Harris/Walz can move closer to the center - from a Mar-a-Lago perspective.
If we/they controlled elections, President Gore would have been in New York on September 14, advising that Pakistan and Saudi will have some 'splainin' to do, and right quick.
And cracker-...jack business genius Agolf would have bankrupted some more casinos, never having dared to try to run for office.
The same folks who control gas prices? Or are there multiple "they's". Do they all ever have meet-ups or conventions we can attend to learn more of their "control protocols"?
Oh, Jeff, Jeff, Jeff! Your list this week is peeeerfect! Donny “diaper pants” actually came out of hiding Thursday evening for an hour of prime time lying to every network. What a waste. I had to turn the tv channel it almost made me puke! Him comparing his ‘crowd size’ to that of Vice President Harris’s was so funny. She had t hold a rally at a huge airport hangar beca se they had over 50,000 tickets issued for it, and people are lining up for miles at every rally to get in, hours before the rally starts.
Frumpy is complaining about his rally, in the exact same venue as hers was, had to turn people away because there were no seats. Looking at the arena, over half the seats were empty! Looking at the arena of the Harris/Walz rally, you couldn’t put another sardine in that can. The joint was packed, and it was ‘rocking’!
They're in Vegas today. Weather is yuk as always in August. Be interesting to see their welcome here. Nevada politics aren't Arizona's. The MAGA fools are mainly up north.
Florida has gone to hell in a hand basket. DeStupid and his merry band of DeSantites in his legislature have totally ruined everything. They have gerrymandered the printings until it’s almost impossible for a Democrat to be elected. And, he’s passed his ‘game boy ok’ to other states so they can follow suit.
Tell me about it, I live there, but not in north Flori-duh spawning grounds of Floriduh-Man Matt Gaetz. My local county commissioners are such puppets of developers they have been in the national news a few times. My district commissioner was involved in the Vaccine-lottery scandal. She eventually had to resign.Gov DeathSantis just appointed a grifty minister to be secretary of elections who has no clue and isn't counting mail in ballots .
I lived in DeSoto County. Left there 6 years sho. I’ll never go back to the sunshine state. It’s a state of MAGA cultists now. As far as I’m concerned, it needs to succeed from the United States and join Cuba. Along with Alabama and Texas.
Roseanne obviously has some form of mental illness, so I won't ridicule her. Sporktoes is different. She's just stupid, greedy, and evil. As for the NYT, I point and laugh. Neener, neener. Your covering for Trump and now he stabs you? Fucking Karma is bee-yoo-ti-ful. 😆😆🌊
Trump crawled out of his rat infested motel to go to Montana and attack Senator John Tester.
The reason he did this is because he hates Tester for keeping drunk Ronny Jackson from heading Veterans Affairs. Trump was at his pathetic hate rally calling Tester fat.
We can’t lose our majority in the Senate, so PLEASE support Senator Tester. 🙏💙
I imagine that his winning the state by 16 points or something was a factor. He needs, NEEDS to be in front of a friendly audience, even if they have the collective IQ of a mini-fridge. No new votes there. Great use of your Trump campaign donations, idiots.
I thought he was there for a dog hunting trip with Kristi Noem.
I’d be happier if he went on a duck hunting trip with Dick Cheney.
I wonder if anyone can just talk him into that... 🤔
The Spawn would go
I bet Liz would like to be on that trip too!
😂😂😂😂
:-)
They included RFK jr as cook for the trip !😂🍖🦴
Ouch!
😂😂😂
What was the total price of that MT trip? Fuel, pilots, airport fees, pay for #Turd hangers on to fly to a blood red state? #Turd hates Dem senator John Tester for keeping drug supply Dr Ronnie Jackson off VA slot.
And think that we the people paid for the Secret Service team to go to Montana with him.
His SS minders are probably thinking, "Well Montana is better than we'll have to put up with protecting him in his cell.
I'm actually ok with that -- we don't know who he'll be replaced with on the ticket. It would be ok if JayDee got the top slot and brought someone like Cucker Tarlson to run as veep, but they might actually hit on someone people liked, as unlikely as that seems. At the rate the Blob is deteriorating, I like Harris's chances...
Just like Georgia,Trumpy spews some hate at his enemies,real or imaginary,and then flies back to the roach motel,to rage-tweet on his failing app and whine on Fox,or sometimes whine ABOUT Fox not doing enough.
What Trump does that I like to see is how he walks out of Trump Tower to a nearly empty street...and waves like he's in front of a crowd. He did the same thing at an airport looking out over an empty tarmac save for a few workers, and again waves and gave his clenched fist salute. He's either totally demented or the neediest man on the planet.
The big reason Donny went to Montana was because it’s a short trip to Jackson, Wyoming which is where he held a big fund raiser with the Jackson billionaires. It’s all about money-he doesn’t care about promoting the GOP Senatorial candidate (whatever his name is)-it’s all about Donny & his money
That wouldn't be a smart fridge, would it?
And not frost free either.
BINGO!
I've been contributing 10 Bucks a month for about a year.

I would but Sporktoes has a great guy running against her so I just sent him money yesterday. Maybe next week I can do Tester. He’s another good guy.
Don't do more than you can, but Tester is critical to maintain control of the Senate.
I support Tester and Brown's campaigns. It's important that they return to DC.
Rest assured, their opponents are not getting $$$ from the RNC.
That's for sure! Lara is hoovering it up, faster than Don Jr and the Gargoyle, go through "Bolivian Marching Powder".
🤣🤣🤣
He's not going to beat MTG in a district that 77% white. They did the same with Marcus Flowers. Holly McCormack might have had a chance. It's a conservative, racist district.
MTG moved to the district because of that.
Yes, she did, she knew her voters, they are as awful as she is. (with apologies to the good blue voters there.
I’m familiar. I’m from that neck of the woods but up in NC
That's a perfect reading of NW Georgia. Deliverance country.
Is it Flowers again? I supported him last time around, but NW Georgia is chock full of blood red extremists who obviously don't care about being represented in Congress.
I hope I'm wrong about this but I'm willing to bet the Harris campaign has NO field offices in MT, which one would think could give at least something of a downballot bump. I went to phone bank on Wednesday here in MN, and was shocked to learn there's no Harris/Walz campaign office in MN, and there's not going to be. Supposedly campaign views it as a lock, and it probably is; however, Hillary only won by 40k votes here in 2016 & our local gov only came on within the last week. I said I want to talk to undecideds bc I'm enthusiastic about this ticket, and got referred to a PAC in Chicago to make calls into Wisconsin.
Especially with all the R voter suppression fuckery, it's alarming if the campaign isn't even trying anywhere other than swing states.
A lot of the red states were purple under Obama. Esp w the OTHER fuckery of the electoral college, for the party to walk off & shrug f these rubes seems...unwise.
The location of offices is often highly strategic. Maybe Tester doesn't want a Harriss office in Montana because he would like to stress his independence from her. She might be an albatross around his neck in MT. I can't imagine Tester asking Harris to do a campaign event in MT.
On the other hand, MN has been reliably Democratic state, so maybe it would be a waste of money to set up an office there. I think they will open one up now that Walz is on the ticket.
Another thought: if you live in a sizable town it could be that the county Democratic Party is putting on a phone banking effort, and or possibly the state Democratic Party.
All of MN has high turnout, and I'm in St. Paul but it feels somewhat futile volunteering just to run up the score at home.
Trump allegedly has or is opening 8 campaign offices here - which I highly doubt - but still I fear the Ds are taking too much for granted.
Trump is way behind opening the up campaign offices everywhere.
He doesn't really want to win, he just wants to grift.
And this election is too important to take for granted anywhere in the country.
With all that money rolling in wouldn’t Walz insist on an office in the TwinnCities? Whats $2million or so going to hurt? It is HIS home
Especially when they have so much money. Southern states are complaining too. Which is why they control so many state governments.
Very. They need to be in EVERY state. Take the Dem consultants out and shoot them!!
Charles Austin, I hope you are being facetious. Fortunately, and unlike some Trump fans, Democrats do not view threats of violence seriously.
Of course. Just trying to make a point about their stupidity.
Typo alert: remove the words “do not”!
Jeeze.
Helena is a good place for a Harris-Walz field office. A bluish spot in a red state.
That is worrisome.
Hopium has a list of campaigns that need support.
ActBlue also has two general funds for the candidates in the tightest races, in the House and in the Senate.
It's kind of sad $$$ has become so determitive in our politics since Citizens United, hopefully they'll be some campaign finance reform in our future.
There better be!!
That’s the reason we are going through this bullshit ! No Citizens United and the crazies have far less power and influence to put the country through this crap every election cycle! Sooner or later they will buy the Presidency! They’ve got half of Congress and 6 fascist justices on the Supreme Court!Throw in the state governments that they control and the scales are all the fuck out of whack ! Money 💴 is going to be the downfall of the United States!🇺🇸The remaining democracies fall like dominoes once that happens!🤕😵💫😵
It's very sad, and you can thank the Supreme Court for opening the $$ floodgates. Once opened, you either go with the flow or go under.
Same
So, maaaaybe the Ds could consider a strategy to get some of these 900 or so seats back?
https://ballotpedia.org/Changes_in_state_legislative_seats_during_the_Obama_presidency
For the last two years, I’ve created a list of folks I watch closely to re-elect or support as candidates on their first run for office. I give tiny donations, but that allows me to spread those donations out to as many as I have on my list. A $5 can make a difference!
Thanks for the link, I just donated to his campaign.
Thx!!!
tRump calling ANYONE ELSE fat is so rich. Oh, yeah, remember when drunk doc Ronny was the WH physician and he said president porky was 239 lbs? People on social media posted pics of a very buff Colin Kaepernick, who was a GENUINE 239 lbs., albeit a few inches taller. But still, uh, they did not look like they weighed the same.
Jackson reported that TRump weighed 239 pounds! Yeah, right... And I have some oceanfront property in Oklahoma to sell. 🤣
He's probably got 20 lbs of diaper and girdle.
Does the ocean front have a dock?😹😹😹
LOL 🤣
Sorry, 239. Yeah, gonna edit my mistake. Thanks!
He hides his true height and weight,he hides his medical records,going so far as having his goons storm the WH doctors office,he hides his grades,he hides his tax returns,he hides his real wealth,he hides behind his NDAs, everything about him is fake or made up,he relies on Foxaganda to con the cult,and who are we kidding?? He ran for president because his reality show failed,and he needed a new grift,and he ran again to keep his sorry ass out of prison.
Well, that pretty much sums it up.
Bingo!
Thank goodness for the edit button, because we on here strive for accuracy and literacy, unlike the other platforms. For example, on Substack I've never seen people confuse your and you're like the MAGAs do on Twitler
That bugs the heck out of me. How about they're and there and their?
There, their, they're...
Also there, their,they’re
Honestly I find myself doing that when I’m tired or pissed off about an issue !their I said it! Your next !🤪😜😅
The only reason Shitler always lies about being 239# and 6'2" is because if he said he was 240# he would be in the OBESE category on the BMI chart.
I wonder if he’s 6’2”. That might be exaggerated too to reduce his BMI
We know he wears lifts in his shoes-that’s why he walks leaning forward & apparently can’t stand up straight with shoulders back like a normal person. Remember when he got hit by something at his rally in Pa where there was an assassination attempt, he was screaming “let me get my shoes” while the SS was trying to haul his fat ass up off the ground? He didn’t want anyone to see the lifts in his shoes
Is that verified?
djt is definitely heavier than 239, but he might (*might*) not weigh much more than that. Muscle is much denser than fat, so 239 lb of muscle takes up far less space than 239 lb of fat. Doctors can verify this.
(And, I know this from experience: Bc of serious illness, I'm down to 105 lb; when I weighed that in college, I was about a size 6, but because I've lost so much muscle recently, I'm now a size 10. Fat definitely takes up more space.)
I’m aware muscle weighs more than fat. I don’t imagine Trump has a whole lotta muscle 🤷♀️
But quite a bit of fat between the ears……. Especially 😆!
Only in his mouth.
Sending wishes for good health your way. 🙏
I wish you good health and more fat.
Hope your recovery will be complete as soon as possible.
He obviously "got high on his own supply" and/or is numerically dislexic, he meant 329!
Calling Tester fat?? Boy, that's A+ projection for you. And does he ever look at some of his supporters? Many of them should ask for Ozempic for Xmas. Trump is so out of control that he's almost like a made up cartoon character. Who else has ever acted like this? I don't even remember famous alcoholic/drug addicts acting this bizarre all the time. If he wasn't a threat to our government, he'd be the best comedy routine ever.
Tester would kick Trumps delusional ass into next year. 😂😂
Why no orange make up at motel- a logo "rambling train wreck"? Not smart enough to provide microphones so questions can be heard, but yeah, he wants nuclear launch codes again.
No mics for the reporters was intentional. Observers couldn't hear the question so Trump just started his usual bullshit hate rally stump speech as an "answer" to an unheard question. The TV networks gave him a free televised hate rally. Just like they did in 2016. Morons.
For once Lawrence O'Donnell has redeemed himself by excoriating the shameful pandering and subservient enabling they demonstrated at that circus event at Motel-A-Lardo.
I tweeted @lawrence and @msnbc. Thanking Lawrence for his excellent coverage over the years, and told MSNBC "if you fire L for telling the truth, you're going to lose millions of Lawrence fans.
I tweeted @msnbc unloading my frustration with them carrying his lie-fest live. He only lies, then they (MSNBC) go into fact check mode for hiurs. WTF? HE ALWAYS LIES. CUT OFF ALL COVERAGE OF HIM. Unless he's convicted.
A disclaimer……the following statements are more than likely lies or demented rant’s please be advised this is hazardous to your mental health! Children up to the age of 65 are advised not to watch !😅
I think the networks should cover him & then factcheck him because it’s negative publicity & people who don’t pay attention to politics get more opportunities to see what an idiot he is. It’s horribly wrong to cover his crap like it’s normal & there’s no difference between the parties (the way a lot of uninformed people think). CNN does that but I still watch it sometimes
More like traitors.
Agolf never does anything himself except talk excrete, and eat.
An absence of normal 'press conference' equipment would have been discussed and modified to suit the purpose as directed by the Liar-In-Cheap.
It was definitely intentional to not be able to hear the press’ questions
Bc he seems even more unhinged lately, I've started wondering why ivanka hasn't tried to step in and help. Maybe she has but has been ineffective, or maybe other people who are close to him are so invested in his winning on Nov. that they're badmouthing her to djt )so that he ignores her advice) or are keeping her at bay.
I don't imagine that she loves him -- I don't think that he, or any of his wives, or any of his children know what love is. But I would think she'd be worried about her brand -- about how negatively most people will view her, down the road, for not taking away his car keys now (metaphorically speaking).
As Jeff once wrote : she hates him because she thought by now she would be inheriting his stash ( not a direct quote, of course)
That's the same reason Melania hates him!
I think him and his clan often confuse love of money for actual love
Dictionary ,Dysfunctional … a family photo of this family is all the definition the word needs ! 🤪😵💫😅
Hahahahaha…Ozempic for Xmas just made me howl!😂😂
I was just in MT & there are Sheehey signs in all the fields. I then had to contribute to Tester’s campaign
Mailed him a donation this morning 💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙
Done!
Tester voted to convict
I wondered why he had such a bone to pick with Tester. I can’t imagine how HORRIBLE it would have been to have Ronny “Johnson” as the head of the VA. Thank God Tester blocked him.
Saw a photograph of that rally. It was...kinda sad. Looked like a YUGE crowd of a couple of hundred. Of course, that's about half the population of Montana, so there's that...
And the ones that were there had to drive hundreds of miles to get there
Donated today!
I have supported Sen. Tester AMAP. I hope the good people of Montana show up and protect the only guy in the Senate looking out for them.
One way to help Senator Tester is to support Four Directions Montana - Native Vote. They work for ballot access for the Native Tribes in Montana. The Tribal Vote makes a big difference in Montana -https://www.fourdirectionsvote.com/news/four-directions-presents-voting-rights-act-analysis-to-montana-secretary-of-state-mcculloch/
If I marketed sex toys, the JD Vance "couch potato dildo" would be hitting the market right about now.
Food (pardon the pun) for thought. Early retirement for you. They'd sell out in an hour. I'm sure MAGA would loan you a "bleach blonde bad built butch body" for the ads. MTG might be free this weekend. Love me some Jasmine Crockett LOL.
😂😂😂😂
Mark, J.uvenile D.elinquent Vance, is Trump's juvie sidekick. Of course little juvie would love that.
Maybe JD would smell the money opportunities and get his venture capitalist on
Seems to me Juvie only gets things done if Peter Thiel backs them. Do you think Thiel would be interested?
Yes J.D. Werewolf has been a failure at everything, until he started fondling Peter Thiel's er..money.
Juvie Werewolf. Sounds like something you don't want to get when using an outhouse!
Bromance ! For sure. Prostitution would be a better description!🤔😅
Definitely Ted Nugent would invest,he did an interview once with about 20 dildos behind him.
Well he is an Ammosexual.
😮😮😮😮😮🤯🤯🤯🤯 Ted forever ruined "Cat Scratch Fever" for me. Great song.
LOL😂😂😂😂
Might be a little cumbersome, tho'
It would come with a starter kit of butter pats.
Don't forget the sour cream and bacon bits
I like it! Sour cream for a gentle ride, bacon bits when you like it a bit rough
OMG 😲 😱 🤣
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Cucumbersome
Ick though. Anti-erotica on a stick. 🤣
It would look more like a tater tot, though!
Mark, you could imbed a "Pocket Pal" into a generic cushion which could then replace any other couch cushion; that way the incels could obtain entertainment from any couch they have, "on hand".
Brilliant!!!

“Fake fetus meat”. My mind is officially blown.
Roseanne Barr has me wondering— exactly how many brainworms are there out there? 78 million?
Barr is repulsive. Ick.
Clearly, there's something medically wrong with her.
I heard an interview with her ex-husband Tom Arnold and he said she is nucking futz (my words).
Pretty sure she was shitfaced for that little hootenanny with Sporkfoot.
One would have to be, to listen to that donkey-bray of hers.
GMTA.
She always was, I never "got" her 'humor'.
I did not recognize Barr in Brainworm's bear necromancy confessional video. But I was like who the f is that ridiculous woman listening to him like a little perched parakeet? So, it figures it's her.
She seriously needs professional help
I am so cynical I think she is just looking for any press. This could be a low point, but I doubt it.
is there any help out there available, professional or not, qualified to go into the realm of Roseanne Barr crazy? And if so, how did they achieve to that level?
I'm hoping it's a mental illness with a physical basis. Sometimes it's that simple.
Drug abuse=dead brain 🧠
Apparently you have to “get back in to” QAnon
When you see Rosanne having this discussion with her son as well as a sitting Congress person, I am lost for words when I realize that there are people who actually think this way. And not only that...but they have no compunction to saying this stuff out loud and in public! And all three are just chatting as if it's a normal information-exchanging conversation!!!!
I can't even begin to wrap my mind around this!😵💫🤯😡
Apparently you don’t live in the South -this line of thinking is fairly common amongst TRumpanzees
That video of RB and MTG reminds me of a Dianne Arbus photo. Take your pick. https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-revisiting-diane-arbuss-final-controversial-series
Holy Qnon Batgirl! that babe is from
Planet 9.
She obviously needs corrective medication, for that brain chemical imbalance.
Like
She definitely sounded drunk or high on something-she was slurring her words a lot
“Fake fetus meat”?
What does that even mean?
Meat but not from fetus?
Meat from fake fetuses?
From fetus but fake meat?
Neither (real nor fake) fetus nor meat?
Inquiring minds want to know!!
Impossible Fetus™️
LOL! 😂
Hahahaha 🤣
Omfg 😅😂🥂
😂😂😂
👏👏👏👏👏
I believe you'd have to be as shit faced as these morons were, except of course Sporkfoot,attention whore parasite.
I try to filter out anything about mtg. I’ve missed why she’s called sporkfoot or sporky? I do know what a spork is, i think.
Jeff explained it one time. She was in a beach photo that looked like she only had three toes resembling a spork. Sometimes she is called "three toes" as well.
Thank you. Gotta keep up!
I was going to look it up and then Jeff told us one time. I often look things up in "urban dictionary" if it is a younger slang thing.
Obviously plastic doll meat (huh)! Barr shares the RFK brainworm issues!
Oh no! Not Barbie!
Roseanne's been nutty for awhile.
Ask Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Like
It's like listening to a chorus of minor demons from the eighth circle of Hell.
🎯😁
You can't make this shit up and when you put MTG and Roseanne Barr into to mix, it's going to be light years away from the truth.
The chemical combination of stupid and deranged is a strange brew indeed
I think the worms that were in RFK Jr.'s brain made it over to Barr's brain too.
It's a helluva drug
I eat at McD's all the time. So that's why their cheeseburgers are so tasty recently. Roseanne Barr should marry the Pillow Guy. They are truly NUTS. I don't feel with them it's an act.
Match made in heaven!💭
How about the other place!😈😈
Do you think he'd share his crack?
They don't look like either one shares...anything except maybe a braincell.
Haha. Well, that makes sense. Only one of them can use it at a time
She is a real piece of work. Makes me wonder why Tom Arnold, who unlike her is a sane person, ever married her. After their acrimonious divorce, she sniped at him by saying he had a small penis. He responded with "even a 747 is small when it lands in the Grand Canyon." Boom
"THey all bathe in baby's blood!" WHen they lose in November, they should blame it on Baba Yaga.
Vomitous
I had the misfortune of catching RFK Jr.’s desperate need for attention that manifested in his dead bear cub story, and I thought in those fleeting moments he was telling Rosanne the story? I’m thinking damn if you’re in the room with her & SHE looks like the sane one that doesn’t bode well. Maybe it was all a fever dream 🐻🧔🏻♀️😵
Yes, RFKJr was telling the story to Rosanne, it was not a fever dream but rather another manifestation that this is the stupidest timeline.
Probably RFK Jr has some in his fridge...
I can’t even….🤮
"Maggot" Haberman made my day. She's complicit in the normalization of trump from 2015 onward. If the NYT had done it's fucking job then, with the 30 years of dirt they already had on the grifting con man, all of this misery could have been nipped in the bud eight years ago.
While Trump is shitting bricks over the NYT questioning him, because they are so out of practice with fact checking that they picked the wrong story to fact check, others are actually reporting. Trump was shocked because they never do this, which is why he is throwing a hissy fit on them, which if what I hear is true about his treatment of the MSM will soon escalate to death threats on their families, including the owner Sulzberger, while Biden sits back, out of the fray watching them reap what they sowed. Meanwhile, ProPublica just did a big reveal today with their story on Project 2025. They have been leaked 14 hours of training videos from the project which they summarize with clips to illustrate points so we can see just what weird looks like. At the end there is a link to all 14 hours. Please share it. Americans deserve to know what Trump has in store for them.
https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-project-2025-secret-training-videos-trump-election
And please contribute to ProPublica if you can; they do an amazing job of shining light on things we need to know about, such as the two most corrupt SC "justices" in US history and their emotional-support billionaires.
(ETA: I love that final phrase. I can't take credit for it; I don't know who coined it.)
You're right about that. It really irritates me that Biden sits back and watches D☭Иald TЯUM₽ ‘s threats and crimes go unchecked and doesn't even encourage his worthless AG, Garland to do anything about it. I wish Garland was 1/10th as proactive and aggressive as Bill Barr was with TFG....Death threats should not be tolerated and we are so sick of seeing the orange stain get away with it so much...
I sure Hope Kamala Harris shakes down that 24-7 criminal factor a lot more than Biden has, or hasn't.
Garland's department has its hands full with criminal politicians and their acolytes. However, I am bothered that he is trying too hard to balance sides. Was much more effective at prosecuting Mendes, but then Mendes probably did not get millions from Egypt to defend himself like Trump did to win in 2016. Catching up is just hard with so much new crime coming to light. Bill Barr has a lot to account for too. He is the one who decided that he would not investigate Trump's illegal campaign funds from Egypt. HoweverJames, I have to beg to differ about Biden. He is letting his AG be independent, instead of what Trump plans to do to the Department of Justice. Also, he is not sitting back, he is busy. Remember we still have not freed all the hostages from Hamas. Also, if you do not know what he is busy with you should subscribe to the Substack What did Joe Biden do Today. I do. https://whatdidbidendotoday.substack.com/
Merrick Garland is as useful as a raft made of Alka-Seltzer tablets.
I hope that if VP Harris is elected, Garland will consider retiring &she can choose someone with a more aggressive approach to political criminality without making it look like prosecuting political enemies for just having different opinions
Katy, I hope so too, but I also feel badly for Garland because we don't walk in his shoes and so much of what goes on is confidential. Republicans never worry about seeming impartial, at this point to the extreme. They are supercilious crooks. Dems have accepted their narratives of us, and bent over backwards to be fair and democratic. However, fair means everyone getting their needs met. In many ways it would be good if there was not a huge replacement of department heads because so much time gets lost. In terms of prosecuting Trump and a lot of other Republicans there might be a reset and more gets done, or it will seem like Kamala is dangerous and vindictive in the way we feel Trump is now, to many mainstream Americans.
So, I don't know. I just don't think it is that simple.
Thanks 🤢 We do need to get up to at least the basics of #Project 25. Imma have to take an anti-naseau pill first
Teri, I have a book club to digest the poorly written prose we are slogging through with my Democrats Abroad group. I have read 10 chapters for far, which is about a third. Some chapters are longer than others. However, spending about 75 minutes a week discussing it is helping. An anti-shock pill might be more useful than an anti-nausea pill. To be on the safe side, take both. I recommend taking a look at these videos too. I started with Department of Education and when I realized that the funding plans are basically to provide Home Schooler families with money for each child, like a tuition from the government to parents for homeschooling them, was designed to appeal to Trump's White Christian Nationalist base, when according to people who have escaped the Duggar's church (of Shiny, Happy People Infamy), they don't teach their children any more standard curriculum than the Orthodox Jewish Schools of New York do, I could see how Public education would totally be destroyed in favor of people who don't feel education is important because they believe End of Days is Near. A good comparison of the differing end of days beliefs between Christian Nationalists and New Apostolic Reformers is by Andra Watkins, which is useful information when reading Project 2025. https://project2025istheocracy.substack.com/p/what-is-the-new-apostolic-reformation
Thank you. Good tips.
People magazine wrote an article about P2025, and it's a good place to start -- the article is relatively short and is easy to digest. That article is also useful when you want to recommend something to people who don't follow the news and who are unlikely to read anything longer about it, but who want (or need) to know about it.
Also, the "How P2025 will ruin your life" Substack has been recommended:
https://project2025istheocracy.substack.com/
The wall street journal has a video summarizing it too, for those who do not read that much. https://youtu.be/y16SZhZJHkI?si=E-odLCvD4mu5AoTT
Still reading some sections of it will help you to have a clearer picture. If you read nothing else, I recommend reading the forward because it lays it all out.
If MSM personnel get death threats, then their corporations need to provide security. Fuck tRump and MAGA threats. We don’t run away from bullies and certainly the press should not.
That’s how authoritarian administrations get rid of the press they don’t like-they put journalists in prison for publishing information that they don’t like. Or they make laws that state that the media can’t cover info that makes them look bad or will be sued and then run them out of business-like what happened in Hungary
I get that and we’re certainly not there unless tRump is elected and tries this tactic. So far he’s only “threatened” to sue the nyt which as we all know is his MO.
I’m not convinced he could such laws passed even with a house or senate majority.
NYT was infiltrated by the CIA in Operation Mockingbird during Cold War era, now they’re at the mercy of Sulzberger’s whims! Why anyone would think the Times is a bastion of truth is beyond comprehension! Excellent post Linda!
Patrick, we notice that the leaker leaks to ProPublican and not the NYT. People are getting the message. Who can you trust to do good with this information that the leaker is risking their job and perhaps personal safety to reveal. Clearly it is not the NYT.
And Glenn Greenwald, formerly of the intercept, has burned several sources.
Don’t overlook the role of Vance. Thiel, et al have placed him there to be President when Trump resigns or is ousted through. 25th A. — which given his mental deterioration wouldn’t have to be long.
An equally worrisome project is the effort to call a constitutional convention to propose Amendments (rewrites???) to the Constitution

The following information was sent to me after i posted on this. Supporting Common Cause might be a good idea!
“Common Cause has successfully blocked a bill in Colorado that would have had CO join in the call for an Article V constitutional convention. A total of 34 states are required for calling an Article V Convention of States.
This effort has been ongoing for decades. From linked Common Cause article below: "Too few Americans are even aware that a constitutional convention can be called, let alone that there would be no checks on its scope and further that the process to call one is well underway and being underwritten by some of the nation’s richest individuals."
Right now [July 2024] it appears that 19 state legislatures have signed on; 12 others had done so but rescinded their approval. Here's a link to the Convention of States website page with a map and list of states so far signed on for an Article V Constitutional Convention. https://conventionofstates.com/states-that-have-passed-the-convention-of-states-article-v-application
This Common Cause article is from 2023 and the number of states signed on has changed since the article was published; it appears that more states have rescinded their legislative approval since the date of the article. https://www.commoncause.org/resource/u-s-constitution-threatened-as-article-v-convention-movement-nears-success/#

“
Barbara thank you for all these links. I would worry about a Constitutional Convention under Republicans, but the Electoral College is a problem and can only gotten rid of through a CC. It is undemocratic. Also, we need to get more control of the Supreme Court. That being said, I would like to point out that the Heritage Foundation has created the role of Chief of Staff to be the door keeper for access to the President. In the first chapter of Project 2025, called White House Office, Rick Dearborn, a former Trump Assistant Chief of Staff, seems to have written a job description for himself. The way that role is set up is that everything going to the president pretty much gets funneled through the COS. There is also a discussion of signatures in person and using the auto signature. Well, when I read auto signature I wonder what is going on. In fact, they discuss the Vice President last in that section, which lets you know they don't see the VP as very important. Trump even said that aloud. While Thiel may want J.uvenile D.elinquent Vance to take over from Trump as his VP, through enacting Article 25, it seems like Kevin Roberts plans to have the COS well situated to run interference, even perhaps signing things that Trump does not even know about for him with the auto signature. As Trump said, the legislation to change the government is all drafted up waiting for him to sign on the first day. Looking at Trump's apparent work habits, I would think that he is not signing all of this stuff himself, so I see the COS taking over there with the auto signature. In any case, we need to make sure that Trump with his horrid Juvie VP does not get into office again.
Thanks
I was surprised TRump slammed her because she is one of his most fervent media shills..
Trump has no loyalty, no favorites, no friends, no loved ones. He is just a dictator waiting to happen to us. The NYT is so unused to fact checking DT that they forgot what he acts like when they do. Of course it is wasted because most of us have written them off, and as the training videos of the Project 2025 say, do not pay attention to the WaPo or NYT because no conservative trusts them.
https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-project-2025-secret-training-videos-trump-election
So, who are they writing for? I think Kamala and Tim should not give any interviews until they stop treating Democrats like they are rabid dogs in heat. Clearly this election, of two normal people against two fascists has changed the rules of the game. The US MSM made themselves irrelevant by lacking any gravitas in the election. Now Candidates Kamala and Tim are going directly to the people (kinda how Clinton did with his town halls that were very popular) and they are responding to Trump and Juvie's lies by fact checking them in social media. So, as HCR put in her substack today, it was the Kennedy presidency that started the media actually following the candidates through their campaigns, and now Harris/Walz are letting that be Donnies old timey deal with the press, since he hand picks who can ask him questions and who can come, and with they are just circumventing them. The press chose to report on Donnie's babbling whiney lies, rather than Kamala and Tim getting the UAW endorsement. They deserve it.
Actually,Fox News was carrying the Harris/Walz event,while MSM was at Flab-a-lago,and while MSM wasn't fact-checking live, I watched it on Brian Tyler Cohen's livestream,and of course he did,when the BS was getting too deep. Fox has carry the Harris/Walz campaign events,so they can edit them to insert their 'theys' in them for the cult,'they' support open borders,'they' are persecuting you,'they' are coming for your guns,'they' are making you buy electric vehicles,'they' are coming for your gas appliances,etc,the list is endless,what 'they' are going to do.
They write for the donors behind the scenes, who know trump is an asswipe but will vote for him if they can keep his tax-cuts, and other wealthy who are greedy and like to be told they are above it all.
He's losing it. He didn't have an organized, calm brain to begin with. He is panicking and he will say whatever he can to make himself feel better for the moment. I think it's great. She, like many others, is so arrogant that she thought she was immune from his vitriol. That is absolutely the dumbest thing that anyone, including his family, could ever think. Everything Trump touches, dies. No more truer words have ever been spoken.
But Maggie? His most reliable journalist? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.
As long as she sells books, a shit she does not give.
Loyalty for DJT is a one-way street.
Yeah but he’ll be calling her before the day is over & she’ll keep covering for him
Her mother who worked for his spox agency, just retired so she has lost her advantage with him.
He's so unhinged he can't control himself.
Really? After all the abandonment of his former enablers? Mike Pense? Seriously, really?
Let's ask Rudy about Trump loyalty.
Her mother just retired from the PR company that reps him, no more access for Mags McSell-out!
They did an excellent job vetting George Santos.
I can't wait for the day that MAGA turns on Trump. It won't be all of the kooks, but a good portion will distance themselves as much as they can from him when he loses or when they're no longer afraid of him. I think that's the key. They're afraid of him. Look how many more prominent GOP are against him publicly this election versus last time. Plus, just because you say you're for a candidate doesn't mean that you vote for him in the voting booth.
I believe the number is 41 of 44 former Trump administration officials are not voting for Trump again.
I read that many GOP Senators & Reps during #Turd impeachment 1 or 2 would have voted to impeach him, but in private convos were afraid for their own safety & their families from magas if they voted to impeach. Makes me sick when I think about it
Truth!

Hi Jeff, as u know I’m in AZ, about 30 miles from the Harris/Walz rally last night.. it was hot, people were fired up and excited., I was very happy to see this type of enthusiasm, joy, happiness all around. The latest installment of Golf with MAGAS, as I went out Thursday, they attempted to throw me off my game with the most nasty comments concerning Harris/Walz.. I did not respond in kind, had the lowest score and..took the money. At lunch it kept up, I merely stated a logical concise rebuttal, and always prefacing their FAUX lies with… that’s a lie, now prove it… However the best way to trigger MAGA is remind these idiots their lord and savior was convicted on 34 felonies and is an adjudicated rapist, indisputable facts… Man, they get pissed as I sip my ice tea and watch them try and defend Donald, oh and count my $$$. Best to you and fellow travelers.😎
Is maga golf a thing or are you joking? If you did go & engage, Thank You For Your Service! 🇺🇸
Fredo regales us with his golf adventures all the time- his golfing “buddies” are knuckleheads
It is for the Mexican American Golfing Association.
But not them in this story.
Good for you, for holding your ground. I always wondered if George Carlin was right when said in many of his stand-ups that Golf is a racist elitist sport...Maybe not, maybe so but one thing for sure it sure does attract a lot of MAGAs with very few exceptions.
Golf courses require a massive amount of land. Land is expensive. Most golf clubs are private (public entities typically don't have millions to waste on buying land, creating the course, and maintaining the course), and membership fees are high because of the reasons cited in paren. So people who join private golf clubs tend to be at least upper-middle-class, and many are wealthier than that.
In the US, wealth is still held mostly by white people, and that division was even more marked before about 1990. So, yes, golf is an elitist and racist "sport."
Good comment. I come from a family that attempted to join golf clubs in the early 60’s… Sorry, no Jews allowed.. so my father and friends started a club for Jews.. in Seattle.. we are all aware of how non whites are treated at courses private or public.. mainly Asians are members these days..
that makes total sense...
I never wondered. It is plainly obvious.
I live in a golf community (I didn't pick it) can confirm.
That's impressive Fredo,and I assume they all cheat,but you still won.
Hi Bruce, to get them rattled, as I do in the gym, I merely cite the felony convictions Donald has racked up..kind of gets in their heads and they fuck up the next shot😀BTW, living in AZ for the last 12 years, I assume all are MAGAS unless they prove me wrong 😀
Thats awesome!
I live 16 miles from the border in San Diego...still waiting for the 'invasion'... we're still hanging out peacefully at the beach...
To the lady wearing the "Trump kicks ass" hat -- Trump literally couldn't kick a corpse's ass.
If he tried kicking someone's ass, he'd definitely fall over backwards.
I think his diaper alone would qualify as a WMD.
🏆🏆 😂😂😂😂😂
Her hat is misspelled. It should read, "Trump kisses ass (Putin's)"
Figures MAGAts can't spell. My favorite one was the guy with the sign "Get a brain morans."
He can hardly walk down a ramp.
Because of his full diaper?
Does she have a feed bucket in her hands? Like one of those survivalist end-times things?
1. I eat a lot of fake fetus meat. It’s healthier than the beef variety. I look 15 years younger too.
2. My IRA looks pretty good. The markets rise and fall like Donny’s blood pressure. However, I’ll make money while Donny keeps losing. It’s a win-win.
Fake Fetus Meat. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Seriously...she's off her rocker/
If there's such a thing,Trump would be selling it from his strip mall in Wisconsin.
Crazier than a rat in a cesspool.🐀💩
Impossifetus?? Sounds yummy...
😂😂
Sooooo.... the picture of the Montana Trumpers. The guy wearing the brick suit...his jaunty facial hair doesn't go with that. 😂😂 Thank you for providing photos to prove these people exist.
And Roseanne Barr? These people have lost their fucking minds. I just cant. We should make people -referring to Marjorie Screwloose Greene....brilliant, BTW...take an IQ test and a Civics test BEFORE they run for office. 🤦♀️
The dude in the brick suit should go down to the border and lay down sideways and see if it helps
HAHAHAHA!!!
He'd just be doin' his part as a real durn patriot
Hopefully he'd get stuck in some razor wire.
😂😂
Trump once said he wanted to build a wall in Colorado.
OK, I'll bite. Build a wall in Colorado to --fill in the blank--????
I think he was confusing the Rio Grande and Colorado rivers,ya know how he likes to throw stuff out there,unquestioned,
and see what sticks,more than likely he's still doesn't know where Finland is on a map.
He doesn’t know much of anything so it’s not surprising he sucks at geography
I heard someone crack “he’s gonna build a wall there and make New Mexico pay for it.” Haha 😆
😂😂
Or the out-of-place-van-dyke-brick-suit-n-tie guy could perhaps stand between the crumbling gaps of the wall parts that didn’t age well?
➡️🧱🧍🏽♂️🧱⬅️
He probably has, it is also his IQ "thick as a brick!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Benedict Traitor Greene said the House of Representatives was the 3rd branch of government...just saying....
Why is she flappin' her gums when there are fetus burgers to outlaw?
'Immpossifetus',look it up,if Q says it's true,it's true for the Kool-Aid crew.
🤣🤣🤣
I can see her bringing up a bill in the House this fall to outlaw “fetus burgers”
If she does, it will continue her usual shtick of not passing any legislation
The Rosanne Barr comments are 5150, bring a SWAT team & straightjacket. Is she truly that insane, or trying to be funny?
Probably just trying to say the most outrageous things she can think of to augment the maggot outrage.
She never was funny before, so you may have a point.
Also a saliva test. (Probably rabid.😂😂)
HA!
Maybe take the citizenship test?
Your word choices! “pernicious fuckery,” “opened in the shitter-closed in the shitter,” “Big Sad,” “fucktangle of insanity,” …I mean….kudos to your educators (and friends) for teaching vocabulary so eloquently! hahaha. The whole shit faced maggots are so depressed-and it brings a big ass smile to my cute little face! hahahahah
I wonder what could be the cumulative IQ of all those magnificent maga specimens. Mmhh… all in all, 50. I rounded it. Much under the true moron level. I was laughing at the guy with the brick-a-like design suit. You made my day dear. Thank you!
What was that suit all about? Maybe it's supposed to look like the "big, beautiful wall" TRump was going to build and have Mexico pay for it...
And yet they claim inflation and the economy is their #1 issue,well,except maybe they want a wall around Montana??
As if they have any idea about how those things actually work.
Yet they probably came from mikes around to attend the rally & buy Donny’s trashy but expensive merchandise
I hope he goes after “the sick, failing, New York Times” with both barrels(lawsuits)! Maybe their editorial board will remember that the only way they continue to exist is in a robust democracy.
Maybe Sulzburger will give him a sit-down interview...
Exactly! Maybe Joe Kahn will assign a piece to Douthat and Brooks about the ways in which Harris/Walz can move closer to the center - from a Mar-a-Lago perspective.
^^^^this!!!
There are so many great quotes in today's column, but this is my favorite:
"“They can control the stock market.”
they? who is ‘they,’ Marge, who can control the stock market? is it the same people who control the weather with their space lasers?"
Hey - Sporky - are "they" in the room with you now?
It'd be a good drinking game if everytime a Rethug said 'they' you'd drink... you'd be so drunk,well,you'd start acting like them...
If we/they controlled elections, President Gore would have been in New York on September 14, advising that Pakistan and Saudi will have some 'splainin' to do, and right quick.
And cracker-...jack business genius Agolf would have bankrupted some more casinos, never having dared to try to run for office.
I know, right?
The same folks who control gas prices? Or are there multiple "they's". Do they all ever have meet-ups or conventions we can attend to learn more of their "control protocols"?
Oh, Jeff, Jeff, Jeff! Your list this week is peeeerfect! Donny “diaper pants” actually came out of hiding Thursday evening for an hour of prime time lying to every network. What a waste. I had to turn the tv channel it almost made me puke! Him comparing his ‘crowd size’ to that of Vice President Harris’s was so funny. She had t hold a rally at a huge airport hangar beca se they had over 50,000 tickets issued for it, and people are lining up for miles at every rally to get in, hours before the rally starts.
Frumpy is complaining about his rally, in the exact same venue as hers was, had to turn people away because there were no seats. Looking at the arena, over half the seats were empty! Looking at the arena of the Harris/Walz rally, you couldn’t put another sardine in that can. The joint was packed, and it was ‘rocking’!
They're in Vegas today. Weather is yuk as always in August. Be interesting to see their welcome here. Nevada politics aren't Arizona's. The MAGA fools are mainly up north.
What is it with "The North"? The north part of my state is where all the crazies are. Same with Idaho. It's the Jewish space lasers, I suppose.
California as well. And Florida too, now that I think about it.
Florida has gone to hell in a hand basket. DeStupid and his merry band of DeSantites in his legislature have totally ruined everything. They have gerrymandered the printings until it’s almost impossible for a Democrat to be elected. And, he’s passed his ‘game boy ok’ to other states so they can follow suit.
Tell me about it, I live there, but not in north Flori-duh spawning grounds of Floriduh-Man Matt Gaetz. My local county commissioners are such puppets of developers they have been in the national news a few times. My district commissioner was involved in the Vaccine-lottery scandal. She eventually had to resign.Gov DeathSantis just appointed a grifty minister to be secretary of elections who has no clue and isn't counting mail in ballots .
I lived in DeSoto County. Left there 6 years sho. I’ll never go back to the sunshine state. It’s a state of MAGA cultists now. As far as I’m concerned, it needs to succeed from the United States and join Cuba. Along with Alabama and Texas.
Ok, Pocatello has its "charms" too.
Jon Snow was King of the North… a little respect here!!!
MSNBC at 1 pm was showing people in Henderson, NV sitting inside an arena. NV in summer standing in a line would be dangerous heat wise.
It looked like they had those cooling tents set up periodically along the line in Arizona, but I can’t image how hot it must have been.
I bet they have a full house. Standing room only!
Ron Filipkowski has posts of Trumpy waving at nobody... except the imaginary crowds in his head.
You know they'll CGI in a crowd, once they figure out how!
The problem is our feckless media ALLOWS him to lie without any pushback
Mazel Tough, Jeff! Hahaha
That is one great Jewish Space Laser Force badge.
As a certified Forrest Raker in California,I appreciate that.
Maybe we'll see Traitor Greene wearing one on the Oversight Committee
That's their unit coin, I think. I have one. All military units have official coins to trade with other units.
You do know that this is an imaginary military unit, not a real one.
Roseanne obviously has some form of mental illness, so I won't ridicule her. Sporktoes is different. She's just stupid, greedy, and evil. As for the NYT, I point and laugh. Neener, neener. Your covering for Trump and now he stabs you? Fucking Karma is bee-yoo-ti-ful. 😆😆🌊
I think Roseanne Barr and Bill Barr are the same person, it’s a known fact !
HAHAH! Quite possible.
But is Bill in drag, or is Roseanne?
😂😂😂😂,never seen them in the same place... hmmmmm.
😂😂😂
🤯🤯🤯🤣🤣🤣
😂
