Thank you, Jeff.

Always delightful in your outrage

In case you missed it, I thought you might like this little tidbit from Timothy Snyder. (I think Yale history professor).

“That Trump will be tried for his coup attempt is not a violation of his rights. It is a fulfillment of his rights. It is the grace of the American republic. In other systems, when your coup attempt fails, what follows is not a trial.”

Absolutely. It’s head chopping time, or firing squad time, hanging in the public square time, or the best one I like most.....strapped between two piles in the center of town and beat until you die.

Oh I so love this. He should be held in Guantanamo. He’s acting like a foreign asset and is the biggest threat to US security... ever!

Guantanamo would be an excellent spot to detain him. Maybe that’s where the Federal Prison System has in mind when they told the courts and Jack Smith they had a place to detain him until trial where the Secret Service could monitor his every move.

The horned fellow, the most interesting and disturbing thing about him is it looks like the horns have actually grown from his head. Isshhh, very disturbing. And Fuentes coming out saying no sex. Well, publicly Republicans love hearing that shit as privately apparently they like underage guys or girls and are constantly being convicted for it which explains why they hate "some laws" and then CaseyDeeDuh, even Ron is standing over there looking bored and somebody needs to tell her it's very hard to take anyone seriously who can't put a sentence of length out with multiple "you know" "like" strung through way way way too often. Twas a big week, an interesting week. Now lets see about that gag order for the orange menace before he says he believes everything he's saying once more.

Keeping your sperm is a big obsession with Mr. F, apparently. Perhaps he has jars of sperm in his cellar bedroom, like Queen Victoria used to keep her farts?

No one will have sex with him, is my guess, so he turns it into something that makes you a genius or whatever..........I wish he WOULD have sex, even with himself, and get that pressure off so maybe his brain might work again.

He sounds like a Shaker. The whole group took a vow of celibacy. Eventually, they died off. (From my lips to God's ear!) Besides, old Nick can always get the hip waders and go to the sheep barn. (Say Hi to Jym Jordan for us!)

You know, as vile as his beliefs are, he's lying. If I see some news flash that he's been arrested for sex with an underager, I am not going to be surprised. And/or he's an incel and may wind up torturing somebody in a basement somewhere.

Projection. What he says we are is what he is. Self loathing, anyone??

Trump is the master teacher of projection.

Expand full comment
Mary Virginia Hughes's avatar

I've become so sick of that whole thing we have to do with that. Their truly astonishing level of projection makes me just shake my head that anyone with two brain cells to rub together could make an idea or thought and not bring themselves to see it for what it is. They don't ever even deny it. And all the books on and by Trump about how he operates in life, all of it, with the advice of Roy Cohn, that anyone would embrace that kind of human much less idolize him.

Well said👏👏 I was going to comment something similar about projection and underage boys. They are so transparent it’s *almost* amusing.

They would have to be lower, about the height of galoshes. Hip waders are too tall, according to popular mythology.

Don't forget, "UH...." "Uh" is the most popular non-word uttered on any cable infotainment interview. Said about every 2nd to 8th word.

Second place goes to "Um." Without "Uh" and "Um", I'm confident no one could utter a full sentence on the TV box anymore. It's just spectacularly bad.

Eugene Robinson has perfected it by combining UH with UM. "It's uh, great UM to see Uh these Uh, Um, people gather..." Jeebus on a skateboard.

Alina Habba is much like tRump. Can't learn from her mistakes, and can't keep her mouth shut.

Elon Musk.....well.

I don't think Nick Fuentes has a dick to get laid with.

And I actually take heart that so many tRump supporters talk the talk, yet so few walk the walk.

Ron DeSantis any day now should get the "I can't get a clue about how bad my campaign is" award. 'Cause like the Energizer Bunny, he just keeps going. Hope Floridians are happy about picking up some of his expenses while he ignores the state.

Here's one you missed Jeff.

Late last night, after the judge at his arraignment told him flat out not to talk to any codefendants, or threaten anyone, or try to intimidate anyone, the Orange Blob with the Bad Combover went on his idiot social network and typed in all caps "IF YOU COME FOR ME, I'M COMING FOR YOU!!"

Swear to God.

A few minutes back the presiding judge in Donald’s D.C. case in response to the latest on Truth Social, are required to report to the court Monday to explain their client’s statements. I would prefer Donald to answer instead of his attorneys.. what a dick he is, but in the same class as the guy with horns or that Jew hater Fuente or Haba Haba all have no earthly bearings on reality, just like Donald.

First I need to Restate I believe the title fox news is an oxymoron. And Jeff, thank you again for making my Saturday. And thank you for your time. This is pure therapy for me. Because you say what I think and believe and I can calm down. Because at the end of the week, you're going to put it in a nutshell for me. And you did it again, buddy, you hit it out of the park.

I think I said that wrong. That was a girl way to put it. But you know what? I mean. But I must tell you as a nurse and a scientist. I loved the guy talking about not having sex to prevent himself from being gay... I'm wondering if he was taught that at his mother's knee? Well, bye, bye, I'm gonna go sit on the porch now and wave at people and holler "bless your heart"!!!!!
