Wondering how many people are going to watch the MAGA half time show during the football stadium after Trump has given Bad Bunny such a build up. I am betting that people would rather watch BAD BUNNY. I know that there are watch parties planned all over Chicago.
I expect that we will be hearing chants of NO ICE during the football game too, so if those football players know what is good for them, they are not going to be making any declarations of support for ICE. Posting a pro ICE statement on social media led a teacher in Chicago's suburbs to resign. While I read about it on WBEZ, I see that The Times of India is reporting on it too.
However, that story is missing the piece where after withdrawing his submission and being placed on administrative leave while it was being investigated he went back to resigning and his resignation was accepted. I assume this was a negotiated resignation. He might not have felt safe any more. There is a lot of anger about ICE in Chicago and surrounding communities. Pressure is also being put on the Cook County States attorney to do something about ICE agents who violate the law as well.
I usually donʻt watch the Superbowl but Iʻll be watching for Bad Bunny and Green Day. Green Day is already performing anti-ICE music. Wouldnʻt it be great if the fans all shouted Ice Out .....
I'm hoping that the crowd will start a F**K Ice chant. I will jump up and join them. Too sad that the American athletes were booed at the Olympics. That is on our disgusting pig of a president.
I read that while there was a little bit of jeering the crowds mostly cheered for the US athletes. The booing was reserved for the universally disliked creep Vance.
They were cheering the athletes---but the booing started when they showed Usha and JD on the big screen at the stadium. (Jake Paul, "boxer" and "MAGA influencer" was sitting with them, too, but I doubt in Italy knows who he is.)
That’s actually a fantastic idea! I sometimes have trouble deciding if people are being serious or not. Usually they’re not, on this Substack. I have seen some notes where the author writes: (*sarcasm*)
Excellent news! Also interesting to see Andrew Tate illustrate how to tell the world that he is in a constant state of hypersexual, bipolar mania without actually saying so
So sad for Ritchie Rich… he might have to go back to the 6,000 square foot “trailer” he keeps bragging about in the very Christ centered hymn titled “Cowboy”… and BTW, why is everybody snorting up his key (kilo for those that aren’t druggies like Kid and Junior)? Asking for a friend…
Well, they're renaissance people. First they were epidemiologists, and then they were constitutional law scholars, and then they were criminologists, and now they're classics scholars who know that Helen of Troy--and Troy is in Turkey, I guess--was actually as blonde as Hitler's wettest dream of a woman.
Yes I always saw the Virgin Mary and Jesus depicted in my Catholic school as blondish and blue eyed with very pale soft features. Totally unlike people in ancient Judah. Its now called the West Bank. None of these folks are blonde and blue eyed.
Since easily outraged MAGATs are all for historical accuracy, according to the classical myths they consumed in comic books, how about adding some really juicy facts to the Melania "documentary?" Like her lesbian porn star and celebrity escort services.
Also, and it’s been years since I read the Odyssey but it takes place on a boat for 20 years after the end of the Trojan war, yes? So like, how major a character is Helen?
well, this would certainly go a long way toward explaining Donnie's prodigious and explosive 'deliveries' into his diapers. And I really hope that rubber pants are included as an essential item his ensemble . . . (gas mask not included)
Helen figures more prominently in the Iliad, which you really have to read to make sense of the Odyssey.
The Iliad is 10 years of war kicked off by the gods fucking with each other over Helen, the Odyssey is 10 years on a boat with the gods fucking with Odysseus, keeping him from getting home.
Either way, Helen of Troy hatched out of a fucking egg because Zeus took the form of a swan to get it on with her mother, so I don't think we really have to worry about "historical accuracy" here. Her most defining feature is her incomparable beauty, though Homer spends a great deal of time on her guilt and self-loathing for the role she played in starting the war. Which, let's remember, got started because the gods wanted to settle which of three goddesses was most beautiful, so they asked Paris to choose, and Aphrodite offered him Helen if he picked her, even though she was married to Meneleus, the king of Sparta.
In any event, Lupita Nyong'o has a goddamned Oscar, so she can do guilt, self-loathing, reconciliation, the whole nine. Her face card never, ever declines. What, exactly, is the problem?
Yes...you do something wrong every minute of the day. You breathe.
The depravity is breathtaking...between the child abuse, the racism, and that fucking ICE agent kicking the puppy and breaking its rib... I'm on my last nerve. It's never too early for a Manhattan, is it?
Susan, my wife and I have one martini on Friday night and a steak, been doing it for a very long time. A time or two, way back, we had three and got in trouble with each other, LOL. Now, it's still once a week on Friday, but I swear I could drink one for breakfast everyday with the shit I wake up too.
During the epidemic I used to dream of going back to them, and getting one with everything hanging off the glass, including a slice of pizza and a small pistol.
Feels good, doesnt it? I will open the back door and scream at the squirrel to get off the bird feeder. It's the little ways we express our rage. 🤷🏼♀️
The stupid doth indeed burn. Good selection today. Thank you. I’d forgotten about the lovely Michelle B., whose craziness seems made for the times. I’m surprised Bari Weiss hasn’t yet hired her to be a special correspondent for CBS.
She can be found, however, shilling for a car warranty company on your tv, attempting to appear to be “one of the gang.” You know, she’s got car trouble just like the rest of us peons. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
The stupid hangs in the air like the mad king's stench. Tate is the perfect hero for Murica, where there's almost the same amount of functionally illiterate people as hard core magats.
Othello was a Moor. Scotland has moors. So probably Othello had fair skin, a bushy red beard, and wore a kilt. He was on a tourist visa to Italy when he married Desdemona. They lived happily ever after because they were both white.
South Africa in the apartheid era had a spoof production Othello Niet Poor Blankes (Othello for Whites Only) in which the Moor himself never was onstage.
going down to one degree with very high winds tonight in the Hudson Valley. it's always fun to worry about frozen pipes and the power going out. at least I have plenty of firewood stacked
Every time there's a cold snap or winter storm, look for the right wing nutjobs to make jabs at global warming. Since they don't like science-y stuff, understanding the difference between climate and weather escapes them
We’ve had one winter snow or ice blast after another for the last few weeks, with dreadfully cold winds and temps into the low teens. Around a quarter of a million folks in and around Nashville were without power for nearly two weeks, although it’s mostly been restored by now. Our MAGA dipshit senator Marsha Blackburn says the power outages are because “DEI.”
I haven’t looked at the temps or windchill yet today, but here in southern New England, it’s cold inside, and very windy out with lots of drifting snow.
Well, Uncle Jeff, if you get tired of that, you can come to northern VT where today our 5 above feels like -11, going to -5 later, which I guess might be getting close to around VT 30 below. We also have plenty of firewood, a full oil tank and any pipes that had any potential to freeze have long been well protected.
Also- there’s been an almost constant deluge of white fluffy snows (mostly little snows as opposed to big snows, which EVERYONE KNOWS little snows are the ones that really pile up!) so skiing (if you dare in this cold) and snowmobiling (if you REALLY dare at 40-50 mph) is reportedly the best in years!!
It’s kind of pretty if you’re watching it from inside next to the fireplace. 😃
Thanks for sharing the viewpoint that intelligent people don’t read books-a thought I never, ever, ever would have come up with on my own-and that makes me smile to know maga is deprived the daily brilliance of Uncle Jeff (while not a book, it DOES require reading- preferably done not driving super fast in a super fast car).
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lastly,
maga being deprived of such intellectual deliciousness is a fine example of getting what you deserve. 💕💕💕
Despite my sore back (which I got at work!) I brought in 30 loads of firewood yesterday, prepping for our deep freeze. My back isn't better, but at least there is warmth.
Sorry about that. Now that the fog has lifted here in the upper Central part of California, the temperature is expected to reach 70. We still could use some more rain. The higher elevations would like some more snow for the ski resorts.
I live in Michigan and it’s 18 degrees with the windchill it feels like 4 degrees. Yesterday, we had 4 inches of new snow making it we have a foot of snow on the ground.
I initially felt the same way about all the trump sh*t, but now tend to agree with Nicole Wallace - people walking around with their heads in the sand NEED to see him for what he truly is... while posing as the leader of the "greatest country on earth". He reflects very poorly on Americans, to say the least.
We don't really know who is reading Jeff's work, do we? (Lots of folks read different writers and don't comment or "follow".) Can't say for certain, but I think he writes and posts on other social media platforms, too. Jeez, I don't know. Just seems to me that independent media should be showing all the atrocities that "mainstream media" doesn't cover. Ignoring it won't make anything go away.
As a former and in my heart a Minneapolis resident I must pay homage to the mention of our great leader and head of the ‘Intelligence Commitee’ that she pronounced our leader as ‘Presnident’ always for years. A real ox of rocks that one. I would add if (Jeff) you could find the video of her and hubby doing the Polka on the stage of an event oh my god play at fast speed it’s fab!
Andrew Tate getting punched is a delightful sight that requires slo-mo to appreciate it. Was the other boxer making some sort of political point by wearing pink gloves? I certainly hope so (though for all I know it's because his mom had breast cancer).
I could move to Europe but I'm old and would lose all of my friends and support groups. I always wanted to live in Europe but was never able to actually make the move. I wish I had.
I was going to watch it, but decided that you simply don’t want some things in your mind. Too hard to erase them, if you ever can. Enough nightmares in this shitshow already.
wait, we have Saturday's entry —
"One Rock The Country Date Has Been Completely Cancelled
South Carolina's ears are saved from all this MAGA slop."

Unforeseen circumstances = no ticket sales

I usually donʻt watch the Superbowl but Iʻll be watching for Bad Bunny and Green Day. Green Day is already performing anti-ICE music. Wouldnʻt it be great if the fans all shouted Ice Out .....
I'm hoping that the crowd will start a F**K Ice chant. I will jump up and join them. Too sad that the American athletes were booed at the Olympics. That is on our disgusting pig of a president.
I thought the crowd was booing Vance which is not sad at all.
I read that while there was a little bit of jeering the crowds mostly cheered for the US athletes. The booing was reserved for the universally disliked creep Vance.
They were cheering the athletes---but the booing started when they showed Usha and JD on the big screen at the stadium. (Jake Paul, "boxer" and "MAGA influencer" was sitting with them, too, but I doubt in Italy knows who he is.)
The athletes were cheered, then Vance was booed. The commentator called it as it happened.
Shinedown, Morgan Wade, Carter Faith, and Creed all pulled out of performing. Good for them. Respect.
Wait. Kid Rock is a “universally acclaimed songwriting genius”?? 🤣 In what universe? Def not mine!
I'm guessing he'll get the Medal of Freedom soon.
The FIFA Grammy
No one ever sat in their driveway waiting for a Kid Rock song to finish.
Well said!
Hahahahahaha!
The writer of the linked article was being sarcastic.
Well of course they were!
Sorry. I couldn't detect from your original post that **you** were being sarcastic, too. Oooops!!! I contend somebody needs to invent a SARCASM font.
🤣🙃🤣
That’s actually a fantastic idea! I sometimes have trouble deciding if people are being serious or not. Usually they’re not, on this Substack. I have seen some notes where the author writes: (*sarcasm*)
Excellent news! Also interesting to see Andrew Tate illustrate how to tell the world that he is in a constant state of hypersexual, bipolar mania without actually saying so
I'd like to READ (or see) that he was dropped in a lobster pot.
😂😂😂
::whispers:: dear god, I hope that doesn't bring him back here 😅
That's a shame.
Yeah, kid Rocks in his head, is going to be sick that week.
So sad for Ritchie Rich… he might have to go back to the 6,000 square foot “trailer” he keeps bragging about in the very Christ centered hymn titled “Cowboy”… and BTW, why is everybody snorting up his key (kilo for those that aren’t druggies like Kid and Junior)? Asking for a friend…
Unforeseen circumstances = his lyrics - “Young ladies, young ladies, I like ’em underage, see some say that’s statutory (but I say that’s mandatory).”
my job would be so much easier if Rudy Giuliani could wear something stupid every day of the year
https://www.jefftiedrich.com/i/186330354/monday-crimes-of-fashion
That is the suit you think it would be a good idea to buy after quaffing 6 bottles of cheap red wine…
I'm sure he wears something stupid most days, he just doesn't get his tired mug publicized that often.
You mean the yellow mustard jacket? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Right out of the movie The Mask Joanne
It was a perfect match. Terribly funny.
Yellow matter custard....
I believe it's called calf shit brindle. Poor little calf.
It stops traffic though.
Hey Rudy, THE 1970’s CALLED AND THEY WANT THEIR SUIT BACK BECAUSE YOU’RE GIVING IT A BAD REP!
😁😂🤣😂🤣
Does saying something stupid count?
Ya damn right it does 🤣
Its sad really. This elderly man put this suit on and thought, "I look really hot in this!"
No one has the heart to tell him. Maybe he thought the yellow would make him look less jaundice.
He wears his stupid face every day, soooo…
Has he shaved his head? I will miss the dye running down his face!
re The Odyssey movie. since when did MAGA become classics scholars?
ten minutes ago
Well, they're renaissance people. First they were epidemiologists, and then they were constitutional law scholars, and then they were criminologists, and now they're classics scholars who know that Helen of Troy--and Troy is in Turkey, I guess--was actually as blonde as Hitler's wettest dream of a woman.
ssssshhhhhhhhhhh! be quiet, very, very quiet!
whatever you do don't tell them jesus was a being of ... 'color' WTF?
Yes I always saw the Virgin Mary and Jesus depicted in my Catholic school as blondish and blue eyed with very pale soft features. Totally unlike people in ancient Judah. Its now called the West Bank. None of these folks are blonde and blue eyed.
And in my Catholic school the sisters blamed the Jews for killing Jesus…no wonder I’m a recovering Catholic…🤷🏼♀️
The MAGAs think Helen of Troy was Troy Donahue’s first wife, before Suzanne Pleshette came along
Oh, Suzanne Pleshette. She had the most wonderful voice. Remember?
:-D
They got their epidemiology degrees from Trump University before studying constitutional law at U-Tube
They think the author is Homer Simpson
Ooooh. Good one!
Since easily outraged MAGATs are all for historical accuracy, according to the classical myths they consumed in comic books, how about adding some really juicy facts to the Melania "documentary?" Like her lesbian porn star and celebrity escort services.
Funny that makes her slightly more interesting.
I'd have liked her better, if that shoot wasn't so phony and posed.
And her being trafficked through Epstein to trump, seems he dated her first.
Also, and it’s been years since I read the Odyssey but it takes place on a boat for 20 years after the end of the Trojan war, yes? So like, how major a character is Helen?
Melania: The face that launched a thousand shits.
well, this would certainly go a long way toward explaining Donnie's prodigious and explosive 'deliveries' into his diapers. And I really hope that rubber pants are included as an essential item his ensemble . . . (gas mask not included)
she's barely in it. my guess is the Nolan version takes creative license with the source material.
I believe that the Iliad is the story of Helen.
Helen figures more prominently in the Iliad, which you really have to read to make sense of the Odyssey.
The Iliad is 10 years of war kicked off by the gods fucking with each other over Helen, the Odyssey is 10 years on a boat with the gods fucking with Odysseus, keeping him from getting home.

In any event, Lupita Nyong'o has a goddamned Oscar, so she can do guilt, self-loathing, reconciliation, the whole nine. Her face card never, ever declines. What, exactly, is the problem?
Maybe they dont realize she is a fictional character. Its not like they study ancient history or Greek mythology.
"I didnt do anything wrong."
Yes...you do something wrong every minute of the day. You breathe.
The depravity is breathtaking...between the child abuse, the racism, and that fucking ICE agent kicking the puppy and breaking its rib... I'm on my last nerve. It's never too early for a Manhattan, is it?
No, or a martini.
Seriously. And I have the Blue Cheese olives in the fridge. 👍
Susan, my wife and I have one martini on Friday night and a steak, been doing it for a very long time. A time or two, way back, we had three and got in trouble with each other, LOL. Now, it's still once a week on Friday, but I swear I could drink one for breakfast everyday with the shit I wake up too.
I'm a bloody mary bastard myself. Want one every Sunday morning no matter how it grosses the young people.
My husband drinks his Bloody Mary without vodka and calls it a Bloody Shame
HAHAHAH!!!
Oh, I havent thought about those in awhile. I like Bloodys!! Horseradish!
During the epidemic I used to dream of going back to them, and getting one with everything hanging off the glass, including a slice of pizza and a small pistol.
Bloody Mary, the only libation that I know of that springs from religious intolerance.
A lousy queen but a great cocktail!
Isnt that the truth?? UGH. The older I get the less I can drink. *sigh
Two Manhattans is TOOOO Much. Vodka martini's, just one, and these days a little smaller, are fine.
There’s a restaurant near me that offers 25-cent martinis for lunch, maximum 3 per customer.
I'm coming to visit you.
OMG!
That's the spirit. I'd like to have a physician's opinion to ask when I'm old enough to carry a flask everywhere.
LOL!!!
Blue Cheese olives make the best martinis!🍸 Cheers!🍸
SO YUMMY!!
I’ll be right over.
There's such a thing as blue cheese olives? Or are the olives growing mold?😉
😂 Find the great big ones...stuffed with blue cheese. To die for!
Absolutely! And they go especially well with Goose.🪿
We must meet, two Susan's, and a bottle of Goose!
World Market has several varieties of large green olives stuffed with various fillings. They are big jars and the price is reasonable.
Ah, I love World Market. I’ll need to find out if there are any in Philadelphia !!
They're on my grocery list!!!
yum!!!
And a piece of toast (a nod to Arrested Development) (one of my all time favorites)
never too early!!!!!
It is 5:00 somewhere…
I’m about to join you🥃
Everything is surreal right now...JFC. And now the weather is brutal. I sound like "Get off my lawn", right? 😂😂 It's getting harder to be positive.
Yesterday I was outside yelling at a cloud.
Feels good, doesnt it? I will open the back door and scream at the squirrel to get off the bird feeder. It's the little ways we express our rage. 🤷🏼♀️
Hahahaha! I'm trying that next!
My sister and I were just lamenting that fact. Harder to laugh, too. 💔🇺🇸
I hear you … {{{hugs}}}
Right back at ya. 😘
Serious question: Has he ever apologized for a single thing in his entire life? (My guess is no.)
A narcissist doesn't apologize. There is never anything to apologize for. It's the others who have wronged the narcissist who need to apologize.
If he has, it was directed at Pooty or Jeffrey
I think your guess is correct. He is the epitome of evil.
Didn’t know about the puppy. I’m sure nazi barbie gave that 🧊 dick a bonus.
NEVER!!
“You breathe”… good one Susan - we’ve found the core of the problem…. that asshole is still consuming oxygen!!!!
Any day, any hour now.....
Never….🥃cheers🎉
Never… 😂
The stupid doth indeed burn. Good selection today. Thank you. I’d forgotten about the lovely Michelle B., whose craziness seems made for the times. I’m surprised Bari Weiss hasn’t yet hired her to be a special correspondent for CBS.
DON'T GIVE BARI ANY IDEAS
I did hesitate, but I figured she was already eying Andrew Tate for the gig. You know, to draw that demographic.
That absolute piece of rotting garbage should be publicly castrated. By women. And film it. And share it widely. Forever. 😡🤬💔🇺🇸
Just dare him to stomp on Pig Hegseth's skateboard.
I appreciate the thought, but even that is more Tate than I’d care to see.
Is he real? I mean REALLY real?
....with a rusty knife.
I thought that already was their demographic.
Not to worry. Bari, like her soul mate Andrew, is too smart to read.
😂😂😂😂
😂
😱
I remember an interview she gave where she accused someone of chutzpah and pronounced it "CHOOTSPA."
Kinda like MTG and the gazpacho secret police. Except Bachmann has a law degree, FFS.
It’s those goldurn Jewish space lasers.
OMG🙄🤯
😆
oy vey!
https://media.tenor.com/oHO-R1Kjo6QAAAAM/simpsons-oy-vey.gif
Well, she has been Marcus Bachman’s beard all these years. I’m sure she could offer a unique point of view on the passing scene.
As Mickey & Sylvia pointed out, “Love is Strange”.
How DO you call your lover boy?
“Hey, Lover Boy”.
She can be found, however, shilling for a car warranty company on your tv, attempting to appear to be “one of the gang.” You know, she’s got car trouble just like the rest of us peons. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
I caught one of those. Oy, vey.
The stupid hangs in the air like the mad king's stench. Tate is the perfect hero for Murica, where there's almost the same amount of functionally illiterate people as hard core magats.
Nobody will replace Hulk Hogan in that niche. The rubes like ‘em big, larger than life. In spandex.
Give her time.
"My brain is far to advanced to read."
Now that's some funny shit for brains.🤣🤣😂😂
And yet unsurprising, considering the source 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻.
They are his apprentices…
Sadly, this message can resonate with far too many people 😬
Wait till MAGAts find out what Jesus Christ really looked like. Hint: not blue eyes and light brown hair.
My Jesus looks like Weird Al Yankovich. With the accordion.
😂🤣
Them: "That's woke Jeezus. Ours ain't look like that!"
😂😂😂🤣
I seen what youse did there.
Maybe Candace Owens meant to say she and Charlie were asshole projecting? Or is that what Trump does?
He projects in the olfactory sense. Other wags have accused him of killing Diane Feinstein with his noxious fumes
Both of the above!
These MAGA morons would hit the fainting couch is they heard someone cast a Black actor as a Shakespearean character - including Othello.
Othello was a Moor. Scotland has moors. So probably Othello had fair skin, a bushy red beard, and wore a kilt. He was on a tourist visa to Italy when he married Desdemona. They lived happily ever after because they were both white.
Denzel Washington played a major Shakespearean character in a movie a few years ago. Didn’t hear anything from maga then.
The best Othello performance I’ve seen was at the Guthrie, and Othello was black.
South Africa in the apartheid era had a spoof production Othello Niet Poor Blankes (Othello for Whites Only) in which the Moor himself never was onstage.
Fucking idiot on FuckForce One! love it! Have a nice safe weekend to all!
going down to one degree with very high winds tonight in the Hudson Valley. it's always fun to worry about frozen pipes and the power going out. at least I have plenty of firewood stacked
Power went off in the Philly burbs... but we're back now. The wind is vicious and it's 4 degrees. FUCCCKKKKK this.
Every time there's a cold snap or winter storm, look for the right wing nutjobs to make jabs at global warming. Since they don't like science-y stuff, understanding the difference between climate and weather escapes them
-14 wind chill here in the far NW burbs of Philly. I see no reason to get out of bed where I'm wrapped in a quilt and a dog, reading substacks.
Stay put!!
doesn't your dog need to go out?
or do you have a doggy door / pee pad / fenced yard?
hubby & I need to leash walk our 9 YO Zoey, whatever the weather.
And we ain't even Minnesotans!
No doggy door or pee pad, just a very understanding husband. If I stay here much longer, I may need a pee pad!
OMG! how hilarious - I almost wet my own pants! :-)
We’ve had one winter snow or ice blast after another for the last few weeks, with dreadfully cold winds and temps into the low teens.

Always gotta use the blame card on natural disasters! pathetic
I haven’t looked at the temps or windchill yet today, but here in southern New England, it’s cold inside, and very windy out with lots of drifting snow.
Sometimes I wear so many layers, I can barely move. 🤣
😂🤣😂 Like a little kid in a snowsuit! I actually bought a heated vest, socks and gloves this year. Toasty! ☺️
Lost it here too for (thank the universe) 5 minutes
Well, Uncle Jeff, if you get tired of that, you can come to northern VT where today our 5 above feels like -11, going to -5 later, which I guess might be getting close to around VT 30 below.

It's going to be brutal in the Northeast tomorrow, but gradual warming is on the way.
🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Eek…I am in Florida for a few more days and it is finally warming up!
I could deal with the cold...but the wind is brutal. 40 mile an hour gusts. Maybe I AM too old for this shit. 😂
Good for you, Jeff!
Despite my sore back (which I got at work!) I brought in 30 loads of firewood yesterday, prepping for our deep freeze. My back isn't better, but at least there is warmth.
Just turn that massive ginormous spigot off in Quebec and no pipes will freeze
Sorry about that. Now that the fog has lifted here in the upper Central part of California, the temperature is expected to reach 70. We still could use some more rain. The higher elevations would like some more snow for the ski resorts.
It's a nice 75 degrees with blue skies where I live. It's nice. Don't hate me. I was born here.
I live in Michigan and it’s 18 degrees with the windchill it feels like 4 degrees. Yesterday, we had 4 inches of new snow making it we have a foot of snow on the ground.
I like your column a lot, but do wish that you hadn't posted that racist POS picture of the Obamas. Twice! It does not need amplification.
I initially felt the same way about all the trump sh*t, but now tend to agree with Nicole Wallace - people walking around with their heads in the sand NEED to see him for what he truly is... while posing as the leader of the "greatest country on earth". He reflects very poorly on Americans, to say the least.
But the ones who need to see this are not reading Jeff's column.
We don't really know who is reading Jeff's work, do we? (Lots of folks read different writers and don't comment or "follow".)

Trump is the greatest cun+ on earth
Sorry, Jeff, but I agree with Paula on this.
Even pictures of Mango Moron are better -- and I hate the sight of that monstrosity!
Agreed!
Agreed!
Unnamed Staffer: a nonentity that always gets blamed for someone’s utter stupidity
Probably Stephen Miller.

Kind of like the Ensign Expendables in the original Star Trek.
As a former and in my heart a Minneapolis resident I must pay homage to the mention of our great leader and head of the ‘Intelligence Commitee’ that she pronounced our leader as ‘Presnident’ always for years. A real ox of rocks that one. I would add if (Jeff) you could find the video of her and hubby doing the Polka on the stage of an event oh my god play at fast speed it’s fab!

It's nearly as good as the "Oh, nuts!" palate cleanser
Absolutely DYING LAUGHING that anyone is trying to claim Trump is better looking than Newsom. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL OMG LOLOLOLOLOLOL

I'm tired of him, I am tired of his supporters. But I am stuck with them in this shithole country where I will remain till I die.
I could move to Europe but I'm old and would lose all of my friends and support groups. I always wanted to live in Europe but was never able to actually make the move. I wish I had.
Michelle Bachmann crawled out of her hole? seems like a good time to share the pic of her eating a corn dog at the Iowa State Fair.

I was going to watch it, but decided that you simply don’t want some things in your mind. Too hard to erase them, if you ever can. Enough nightmares in this shitshow already.
Wow, and a foot-long one at that. What a pro
Ha ha ha!
Lucky for her there's no audio. "Oh, Marcus, if only this was youuuu. . . "
Ahahhahahahaahahhaha!!! 🤣🤣🤣
