Not to mention that you must have had to lie down for a moment or two with a cold towel on your head, after subjecting yourself to both the God Botherer and Looni-mer.

It’s fine.! But I’ve gotta admit, I was starting to worry that you might be on a plane to El Salvador.

It was so worth the wait! The pic of the mad king gazing adoringly at Mamdani looks straight out of South Park. And the bj showdown between him and the space nazi is pure gold.

That’s the best Hanukkah/Christmas/Kwanza present we can hope for until Trump’s prison term starts.

Before you start glorifying, as it were, kwanza, please check out the biography of Ron Karenga, his connections with Reagan and Hoover, and especially, his criminal record. Stick with Hanukkah and Christmas if you must. Kay-El, this is important knowledge for those of us who survived the Sixties and Seventies.

I’m not glorifying anything. I’m just mentioning what people celebrate. I should have included Festivus too.

Marge’s resignation opens up a spot for a new crazy MAGA spokesperson., and I nominate Laura Looney Tunes. After all, she’s been pretty prolific with her tweets, and I think the MAGA cult should listen to her when she says Republicans might as well sit home for the 2026 and 2028 elections. I like this chick already!

Oh, don't miss her. I'm completely talking out of my ass right now, but she's up to something; I feel it in my Georgia bones.

1. Even the religious nut hosting Kat can’t stop laughing.

2. No one can resist Mamdani’s mojo.

3. Does anyone even listen to Loony anymore?

Beneath all the rage that’s boiling up inside of me, there’s a constant sadness over this question: where are all the Musk Children’s Cancer Hospitals? How can a human be this cruel, this selfish, this profoundly ignorant? How how how?

Also, jeez, wotta week. Everyone see this?

Laura Loomer is all about Mamdani taxing white people, obviously equating white with rich.

I'd just like to remind everyone who remembers exactly where they were on November 22, 1963, that today is the 62nd anniversary of that day, and every speech that president gave was golden compared to what we have now. I'm sorry if you don't remember, but it was the standard by which I measure all speeches today. "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country," or words to that effect.

I remember. I was in school, in third grade. Our teacher was called out of the room and when she came back, clearly distraught, she said, “The President has been shot!” I was only 8 years old, but it’s what sets our generation apart.

Orange Jabba: "Where can I get me one of them Groks?" Seriously, a trio of sentient Groks can replace the entire Cabinet during the next Come to (Orange) Jesusfest. So long, MTG. You may have been a living, breathing trainwreck but you WERE smart enough to leave the party a VERY short time after your financial windfall kicked-in. Next Stop: Newsmax. Or some Kafkaesque right-wing "think" tank. And by "think" I mean spew-out a line o' crap that makes Laura Loomer seem reasonable.

"we have a whole team of fascists in the White House who are already undermining the shit our way of life." Yes.

Some pundit on the new MSNOW stated last night that tRump's behavior with Mamdani boiled down to "tRump loves winners." Along with MTG's change of heart, it felt like a twilight zone glitch in the time-space continuum. Especially when tRump gave the OK for Mamdani to say he was indeed, "a fascist." Weird.

Yay! The now classic kegseth skateboard nut punch made it in today's post. Always makes the day. Thanks.

And did you notice how Trump just let Commie Mamdani call him a fascist? He just accepted it and cut Mamdani off before he could list the reasons WHY he’s a fascist. It was like he was saying, Fine! Call me a fascist. We don’t need to get into the details.’ 😂

You’re the best, Uncle Jeff; and you never complain about how hard you have to work (unlike some Substackers). Today’s column was a true gem from start to finish.

Such a busy news cycle! All about the failure of the MAGA Regime and the deep deluded nut cases who still hold microphones. While we are planning on a spending strike, why not go on a Maga news strike…nothing whatsoever written…only the trolls will come out to play. Then we can cancel them all out.

Trump has a new friend! Mamdani until he changes his mind in an hour, in a day etc.But his cooing over Mamdani is on video. The fallout for all to see. Poor MTG is getting treated the way she has treated Democrats! Waaaa!

Looks like we get to live to see the trials after all.

Ol' Puddinhead is just following his whim of the moment these days, and when Mandami walked in all tall, dark and handsome, Puddin fell hard. I feel you, bruh. That dude is hotter than a habanero pepper. Kinda rough for the talking heads, tho. They're playing dementia whackamole.
