if that weighs heavily on you, please take the advice I give in the Inauguration Day post I wrote one year ago today: "practice self-care. it’s okay to step away from the news for a day."
I think that is great advice. The authoritarian playbook is non stop chaos to overwhelm and shut us down. We need to remember the game they are playing so we don't become pawns.
I think I speak for many here Jeff when I say, be sure to follow your own advice as well! If you need a day to step away, do it, we all would fully understand. Just send a quick sentence or two to let us know so we don't worry in your absence is all!
I second your suggesting. Great one! Yes, Jeff. We k own how difficult your life is. You pour your heart and soul into your posts. Take a mental health day off. It will feel great. This nurse highly recommends it!
I know you are making a joke, but I just had to get my two cents worth in here. I’m a pescatarian, but I’ve had some pretty delicious vegan food and yes, vegans may live longer.
Yeah, it's a joke, but to us unrestricted omnivores, it's also kinda true. That being said, pescatarians, vegetarians, and vegans have much lower rates of cardiovascular disease and cancer, which are the top two killers in America. Hopefully ICE does not usurp that ranking.
It's worth pointing out that at least half the stress of these times is caused, not by Trump or his vile administration, but by frustration and rage at how others are failing to adequately address them, i.e., the mainstream media, House and Senate Republicans, the feckless Democratic leadership, the Supreme Court, and corporate America.
America's work strike begins at 2pm Eastern TODAY and is just for today. The people behind the original 2017 women's march are asking for a work strike. IF you can do so responsibly, for example, you're not needed in a hospital or fire station.
You never mentioned the $47 he asked his MAGA base to donate within 30 minutes of receiving his email, so that the radical left didn't win the 2026 mid term elections. Apparently he sent it on the 12 Jan.
By the way, I think the American people do need to do something about this batshit crazy president. His actions are becoming more and more erratic and unhinged.
And I think you need to take a step back from your daily blogs, as he is making you more and more unhinged 👍😁
Michael... take your advice elsewhere. Jeff Tiedrich is providing valuable commentary that his subscribers look forward to. Your audacity in calling him unhinged is breathtaking...and completely unwarranted. Go away.
Actually, Jeff, Everyone is entitled to YOUR opinion!!! we love what you do,,,and I get it about it being the therapy. I send out daily memes, pics, or cartoons. That is my therapy!
My guess is he's shocked by the crazy daily events that you are notating and writing about, and perhaps thinks you're exaggerating. Of course trump is unhinged from reality and you are simply reporting on his actions. He certainly isn't hearing about these daily insanities on Fox Noise or right wing YouTube podcasts after all.
I assume you're trying to be funny re: Jeff being unhinged. You might want to clarify.
You're long on profiling and pointing, but woefully short on suggestions. Americans are now at the stage of getting the brains blown out, their heads blown off (bc "shot in the face" seems rather quaint now) and tear gassed, abducted, dragged from their homes...So please, tell us what to do. We're all ears.
Specifically, Michael, what would YOU do to remove Trump?
What we can do about his unfitness for office? Write or call our federal Senators and House Representatives, demanding that *they* ask Trump's Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment. Also impeach his ass. Neither is likely while Republicans control the media, the House, the Senate, and the Cabinet. Not to mention the SCOTUS. If we rebel with weapons, Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act. Then he becomes an open dictator with his own private army and a military that will not intervene, as opposed to an undeclared dictator with his own private army and a military that has not refused to follow illegal orders.
Dinner diplomacy sounds terrific! Ask me, M. Macron! I will fix everything! Seriously, I don’t know why anyone invites DT anywhere. It’s not like he’s the leader of the free world anymore. I run into people who say “I didn’t know it would be like this” and it’s as if my face is frozen in a permanent eye-roll.
I see your waterproof chairs and I’ll raise you a drop-down
Cage, not tall enough for him to stand up. Then drop a soundproof paneled box around it. Because we’re civilized we’ll drop in a bottle water and spare extra-large diaper, trash can and wet wipes. Air-lift that container to a black site over the deep blue sea. Repeat with each of his cronies down to Michael Johnson and a few trump cocksuckers in congress. Force all cabinet members and staff to resign and be tossed indefinitely into detention centers. Then sing Happy Birthday America! No tariffs! Free healthcare! Food for all! Hold democratic elections. Elect democrat. Repeal every executive order and rescind all pardons by the past autocrat. Celebrate! Let freedom ring 🎶
Well, to be fair, NOBODY knew it would be like THIS, because this is beyond imagining and beyond catastrophizing. Those of us with, you know, eyes and ears, knew it would be a shit show, but the form of that debacle was unclear. It’s like Dan Aykroyd thinking up the Stat Puft Marshmallow Man as the form of their destruction. Frankly, I’d take a one-hundred-foot-tall marshmallow stalking the streets over this demented bozo of a motherfucker. So yeah, we knew, but this? This is far worse. Fuck DJT, fuck ICE, and most of all fuck these cowardly little Republicans whose mouths are too attached to dear leader’s ass to sound the alarm.
When over the weekend Ted Cruz was defending Trump's lust for Greenland in an interview, I wanted the reporter to say, "And what does your ugly wife think about you now kissing the ass of the man who insulted her?"
Many of us did read Project 2025, and were properly alarmed. So, sure, much of what’s happening was there, but it's the capriciousness that's so outrageous. Dear leader has a whim and it's off to the races.
Classic denialism of something no one could have missed. When the Allies liberated the Nazi death camps, General Eisenhower told his unit commanders to go grab the German civilians from the nearby towns to help care for the survivors and bury the dead. The uniform response from said civilians, when shown the ghastly conditions and unimaginable suffering that was inflicted upon innocent people? "We didn't know."
I asked my father how Hitler was allowed to do his thing, his answer was also, "we had no way of knowing! He also said the world would not have believed this could happen.
There were people who got word of what was happening in Europe and tried to alert everyone else, but they were branded as hysterics and anyway, there was so much overt antisemitism back then that I think many leaders didn’t care. And we didn’t have modern communications then. Oh, and we have holocaust deniers today!
It's like Denmark writing a letter to trump saying the Oscar for Best International Feature Film should've gone to The Girl with the Needle, so you should let us buy Guam.
" I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines and champagnes" - Canada and the rest of the world will gladly replace any lost sales of French wine - we stopped buying California and Oregon wine months ago.
When is he going to learn that other countries are not 13 year old girls?
I saw Macron's speech this morning, I suggest watching it. I hope what he said in that speech he says to Donnie DumDum's face.
Although, I think Macron would be much more successful if he led the charge in hosting a blanket party against Donnie--throw a blanket over his head and then he and all the leaders beat him with 3 day old baguettes until he cries Uncle.
Susan, my dear, I’m getting a little concerned over your constant laughing responses to the comments, but do keep it up. Those grinning icons say it all. 😂🤣😆
Awhile back, I saw a meme that said, “Replacing Trump with Vance is like shitting your pants and changing your shirt.” I agreed with it at the time, but now I realize anyone with two partiality functioning brain cells would be an improvement. They need to 25A the shit out of him now.
Extortion, bribery, murder, grifting, lawlessness…our government is one big mafia family. Join my club or I’ll put a 200% tariff on your best export. Oh, and don’t forget the membership fee. 1 billion. Pay up motherfuckers.
I’m sure Trump actually believes that Norway controls the Nobel prize. He thinks they’re doing the same thing as he does when he says the DOJ is doing whatever it’s going to do and he knows nothing about it.
Truthfully you can’t run fast but I get it. My dog hates the wind but thinks he can outrun it also he he bites the air while running. Crazy fucker, just had to swear.
To the surprise of no one, electing the mentally ill rotting pumpkin with lizard eyes for a second time was a suicide pact. Steve Schmidt on Republicans, “everyone on the Titanic who got in a lifeboat before midnight went on to lead long, happy lives. Those who waited until after midnight wound up floating in the North Atlantic frozen stiff.”
He is incompetent and deranged. Every day he has access to the nuclear "football" is a day no rational person can rest. Here's what I recently wrote about the worsening situation and the complete fecklessness of his GOP apologists and enablers:
"Trump’s volatility, malignant narcissism, and governing incompetence, enabled by an ethically compromised Roberts Court and a feckless, GOP-controlled Congress, will leave lasting damage on the United States and the world. Trump voters, along with those who opted out under the comforting fiction that “both sides are the same,” effectively handed him the taxpayer treasury and the nation’s credit card. He is now managing public funds exactly as he managed his own ventures, through recklessness, self-dealing, fraud, corruption, and failure, repeating the pattern that led to multiple bankruptcies and the dissolution of his so-called charitable foundation."
You know what I find both amusing and somewhat terrifying about Donnie Dimwit's obsession with Greenland? It's his followers. Not the ones in government, but his base, the influencers and podcasters, or just everyday "fanboys" on the internet. Up until a few months ago, and maybe even still, these people couldn't have found Greenland on a map if it were outlined in flashing neon lights. Now, they're experts in the history and geopolitical strategic importance of Greenland. They haven't given one single independent thought to what the implications are, it's just "my boy Donnie said it, so I'll go along with it no matter what."
This is what i find most upsetting about every terrifying and outrageous thing that's happened in our country over the past year. The fact that so many Americans voted for this and still blindly or maybe not so blindly still support this administration is the most disturbing part of it all.
That sleazy old motherfucker has cost me more sleep than anyone else I can think of. I've been saying for months, HE'S CRAZY AND NEEDS TO BE REMOVED NOW! And, nobody will listen to someone like me. I knew the raving maniac didn't belong in the White House to begin with, I sure as fuck didn't vote for him. I've NEVER voted for him. But, shit's gettin' real deep, and someone better step the fuck up and DO something about this unhinged sonuvabitch
Trump's popularity among Republican voters is only slightly flagging, and the 25th Amendment and Impeachment are not viable options. So it will take a skeet shooter who can do better than nick ears to deliver the nation.
I was hoping the Idiot's narcissisic collapse would be amusing. Sadly, no. I don't think there's any coming back from this. America is the bad guy now.
We're the hottest country no one wants to visit. I noticed Scott Bessent said the U.S. is "hot" (as if it were a Mar-a-Lago wife), so that's standard smarmy Trump cabinet speak now. No other world leader describes their own country as "hot."
Donny's been preznit for exactly one year.
if that weighs heavily on you, please take the advice I give in the Inauguration Day post I wrote one year ago today: "practice self-care. it’s okay to step away from the news for a day."

folks, I promise you all that I'm okay. writing this shit every day is my therapy
Thank you for letting us know. We care and are concerned.These are unusually difficult and stressful times.
Reading this stuff (it ain't shit) is my therapy, too.
I'd feel better if we had a Hegseth 'nad knackering .gif right about now.
Thank God.....it is cheaper than a therapist's couch!
welll … ok then.
Reading it is my therapy!
Gimme gimme Shock Treatment!
reading this shit every day is mine. thank you bud!
If you follow Paul Krugman, there are days when he posts just a short note.
And often, those have a lot of subtle meaning.
So do Joyce Vance and Heather Cox Richardson.
Yes. This!!! 💜💜💜
The longest year of my life.
Ditto. I'm ready to retire from life....wake me up when the iDJiT is locked up in a secure dementia unit.
Along with all of his wackadoo minions
Will do, but you misspelled CECOT.
Sorta like what they say about vegans: you don't live longer, it just tastes that way
I know you are making a joke, but I just had to get my two cents worth in here. I’m a pescatarian, but I’ve had some pretty delicious vegan food and yes, vegans may live longer.
Yeah, it's a joke, but to us unrestricted omnivores, it's also kinda true. That being said, pescatarians, vegetarians, and vegans have much lower rates of cardiovascular disease and cancer, which are the top two killers in America. Hopefully ICE does not usurp that ranking.
As a meat eater...... that's funny!!!
That’s funny!!
😂😂😂
Don’t worry. Only three more to go. 🙄😩
I'll take bets on that! I doubt very much he'll make it 3 more years alive, let alone in office!
One yr ago today, I predicted that #Bumblefuck wouldn't last *18 MOS* in office.
Every day, I'm more & more convinced that I WAS RIGHT.
Sounds good to me Lin!
That comment sounds a bit like the movie “They Shoot Horses Don’t They” …mind you I never saw it, but I remember the previews 🫣
one of hollywood's greatest films
Feels that way doesn’t it Kay?
Worst year of my life and all dopey’s fault too.
When you wrote this a year ago, we all knew it would be bad. But nobody could have predicted HOW bad.
Has it only been a year?
I’ve been aging faster than Bilbo Baggins without the ring.
Yes. Definitely yes.
It's worth pointing out that at least half the stress of these times is caused, not by Trump or his vile administration, but by frustration and rage at how others are failing to adequately address them, i.e., the mainstream media, House and Senate Republicans, the feckless Democratic leadership, the Supreme Court, and corporate America.
OK Today. Tomorrow we must be at every protest. Even in 20 degree Chicago weather.
America's work strike begins at 2pm Eastern TODAY and is just for today. The people behind the original 2017 women's march are asking for a work strike. IF you can do so responsibly, for example, you're not needed in a hospital or fire station.
Excellent Mary, living in the twin towns I know…bundle up, be loud and enjoy the energy… it’s best to keep moving as well.
Not stepping away today. I’m going out and protesting this mother f*cker! ✊
You never mentioned the $47 he asked his MAGA base to donate within 30 minutes of receiving his email, so that the radical left didn't win the 2026 mid term elections. Apparently he sent it on the 12 Jan.

wait — me? I'm unhinged? how so?
If you're "unhinged" then we all are unhinged because your writing keeps us happy every day!
Unhinged.....AND you have TDS!! 😂🤪............kidding of course.
Unfair assessment by Michael - I am here Jeff - checking everyone for mental health at no charge 😬😬😬😬
I disagree...I read the posts every day and no, Jeff, you are not unhinged. Please keep doing what you're doing the way you are doing it!
Michael... take your advice elsewhere. Jeff Tiedrich is providing valuable commentary that his subscribers look forward to. Your audacity in calling him unhinged is breathtaking...and completely unwarranted. Go away.
I approve this message.
Ditto!
Reporting unhinged behavior does not make one unhinged.
FUCKITY BYE ! Jeff does NOT need your lame advice .You're new here,
& I don't appreciate your mansplaining.
🚫 BLOCKED
no, it's ok — Michael gets to have an opinion. I'm just curious what his reasoning is
Actually, Jeff, Everyone is entitled to YOUR opinion!!! we love what you do,,,and I get it about it being the therapy. I send out daily memes, pics, or cartoons. That is my therapy!

I run into people who say “I didn’t know it would be like this” and it’s as if my face is frozen in a permanent eye-roll.
And they need to put towels on the good chairs.
And DT wouldn’t appreciate the French cooking, anyway, so I should go instead.
They’ll just name every menu item a la Hamburger and he’ll eat it.
🤣🤣🤣
Waterproof ones, like you use in a crib.
I see your waterproof chairs and I’ll raise you a drop-down
Cage, not tall enough for him to stand up. Then drop a soundproof paneled box around it. Because we’re civilized we’ll drop in a bottle water and spare extra-large diaper, trash can and wet wipes.

Better yet, those mattress protectors with plastic covers…

When over the weekend Ted Cruz was defending Trump's lust for Greenland in an interview, I wanted the reporter to say, "And what does your ugly wife think about you now kissing the ass of the man who insulted her?"
The 2025 plan was available, but in our short attention span society most people weren’t able to get through it.
Many of us did read Project 2025, and were properly alarmed. So, sure, much of what’s happening was there, but it's the capriciousness that's so outrageous. Dear leader has a whim and it's off to the races.
Project 2025 failed to include a chapter on taking the Nobel Peace Prize by force.
But perhaps the new Board of Peace will make it their mission to dismantle the Nobel Committee . . . and also the Norwegian govt while they're at it.
True dat Cindy, everyone I spoke to about read it, replied Trump would never do that…
The 25 plan was sickening to read. I couldn’t take it.
It was all written down in Project 2025. Naturally, the f*cking idiot Democrats didnt read it & formulate a response.
It's the f*cking idiot Republicans! They could have stopped this but didn't.
If memory serves, our Democratic candidate for president warned us and the media mocked her.
Keenan Thompson held up a copy at the Democratic National Convention and warned us about it. Sheesh.
mainstream media did a piss-poor job of recapping and reporting it for public consumption
The only one who explained chapters was Ali Velchi...he would bring copy to his show and explain chapters of it...he had dozens of tabs in the.doc....
🎯
it's ANOTHER monkey see monkey do MAGA explanation ... 'i didn't know'
Mike Johnson is all three monkeys rolled into one: "I didn't see that. I didn't hear that. I didn't say that." Seems to be working for his circus.
Sargent Schultz?
Classic denialism of something no one could have missed. When the Allies liberated the Nazi death camps, General Eisenhower told his unit commanders to go grab the German civilians from the nearby towns to help care for the survivors and bury the dead.

"All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."--often attributed to Edmund Burke
Oh sure they didn’t know. That is what happens when you bury your fuckin head to reality. What is what I see all around me.
There were people who got word of what was happening in Europe and tried to alert everyone else, but they were branded as hysterics and anyway, there was so much overt antisemitism back then that I think many leaders didn’t care. And we didn’t have modern communications then. Oh, and we have holocaust deniers today!
Macron should tell him that macaroons are named after him. That oughta make Orange Fat Bastard jealous
Recipe idea for Trumparoons: bullshit mixed with crackers, bananas, and nuts and then only half-baked
HA!
That is so spot on, HI2thDoc🤣🤣🤣🤣 You deserve the Nobel Prize for Humor 😊 And, as I am a very fine woman, I formally award the prize to you🤓🖖🏻
It's like Denmark writing a letter to trump saying the Oscar for Best International Feature Film should've gone to The Girl with the Needle, so you should let us buy Guam.
that's actually an analogy I meant and then forgot to include in my post!
But will MELANIA get the Oscar for best
documentary ? 🤣
Talk about audacity...she's the queen of grifting!
And the queen of concubines.😂😂
Cue Eye roll!!!
Not this year. It's a 2026 release.
How CONVENIENT, I guess no other documentaries after hers , will be able to surpass the MAGNIFICENCE of MELANIA 🤣
" I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines and champagnes" - Canada and the rest of the world will gladly replace any lost sales of French wine - we stopped buying California and Oregon wine months ago.
And if you won't sell it to us, we'll just take it.
You should it would point out ‘bad policy ramifications’.
When is he going to learn that other countries are not 13 year old girls?
I saw Macron's speech this morning, I suggest watching it. I hope what he said in that speech he says to Donnie DumDum's face.
Although, I think Macron would be much more successful if he led the charge in hosting a blanket party against Donnie--throw a blanket over his head and then he and all the leaders beat him with 3 day old baguettes until he cries Uncle.
LOL
Susan, my dear, I’m getting a little concerned over your constant laughing responses to the comments, but do keep it up. Those grinning icons say it all. 😂🤣😆
I have nothing else to offer but a laugh!
Blanket parties were always reserved for bullies, we never used baguette’s though… a tad messy… although if frozen…
😂😂😂
Awhile back, I saw a meme that said, “Replacing Trump with Vance is like shitting your pants and changing your shirt.” I agreed with it at the time, but now I realize anyone with two partiality functioning brain cells would be an improvement. They need to 25A the shit out of him now.
Get rid of trump then deal with the Divan Defiler.
READ the 25th amendment. It's not going to happen with THIS Cabinet of idiots and bootlickers.
Exactly Daniel.
😂😂😂😂
FUK THE HILLBILLY!
Take the rest of Trumps enabling cabal with him, would be more beneficial to the republic Stephanie.
What a huge embarrassment!
I hope someone shouts “pedophile protector” at him in Davos!
Pedo actor is more accurate
That baby meme....bahahaha!!!!
Extortion, bribery, murder, grifting, lawlessness…our government is one big mafia family. Join my club or I’ll put a 200% tariff on your best export. Oh, and don’t forget the membership fee. 1 billion. Pay up motherfuckers.
I’m sure Trump actually believes that Norway controls the Nobel prize. He thinks they’re doing the same thing as he does when he says the DOJ is doing whatever it’s going to do and he knows nothing about it.
Board of “Piece of S***” is more likely what he is in charge of. (I know-I shouldn’t swear…..it just comes out!)🤷🏻♀️
please don't swear. you'd never catch me swearing
Whatthefuckever
Swearing is the only release
BAHWAHAHA! nope - no swearing here! (wut th'fuk is dishit?)
Maybe if I'm running really fast & swearing ?
😂😂
Truthfully you can’t run fast but I get it. My dog hates the wind but thinks he can outrun it also he he bites the air while running. Crazy fucker, just had to swear.
😂😂😂😂😂
FUK TRUMP!
Free country still Tess, no need to apologize.
Once we led the free world. Now we are its enemy.
To the surprise of no one, electing the mentally ill rotting pumpkin with lizard eyes for a second time was a suicide pact. Steve Schmidt on Republicans, “everyone on the Titanic who got in a lifeboat before midnight went on to lead long, happy lives. Those who waited until after midnight wound up floating in the North Atlantic frozen stiff.”
This is so much worse; At least the Titanic had beautiful live music
Thank you Jeff.
He is incompetent and deranged. Every day he has access to the nuclear "football" is a day no rational person can rest. Here's what I recently wrote about the worsening situation and the complete fecklessness of his GOP apologists and enablers:
"Trump’s volatility, malignant narcissism, and governing incompetence, enabled by an ethically compromised Roberts Court and a feckless, GOP-controlled Congress, will leave lasting damage on the United States and the world. Trump voters, along with those who opted out under the comforting fiction that “both sides are the same,” effectively handed him the taxpayer treasury and the nation’s credit card. He is now managing public funds exactly as he managed his own ventures, through recklessness, self-dealing, fraud, corruption, and failure, repeating the pattern that led to multiple bankruptcies and the dissolution of his so-called charitable foundation."
Excerpted from: https://bomdia.substack.com/p/life-after-trump (the article is free and worth at least twice that!)
Trump was never a successful businessman. He merely played one on a TV game show.
AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL has sent advisories concerning the fascist takeover
You know what I find both amusing and somewhat terrifying about Donnie Dimwit's obsession with Greenland? It's his followers. Not the ones in government, but his base, the influencers and podcasters, or just everyday "fanboys" on the internet. Up until a few months ago, and maybe even still, these people couldn't have found Greenland on a map if it were outlined in flashing neon lights. Now, they're experts in the history and geopolitical strategic importance of Greenland. They haven't given one single independent thought to what the implications are, it's just "my boy Donnie said it, so I'll go along with it no matter what."
I believe his obsession with Greenland is because he's only seen it on a Mercator map and believes it's the size of Africa.
A TV analyst noted that among the rare earth minerals underlying Greenland's tundra there is also a huge cache of GOLD. So there we have it.
Under a 1 mile deep ice shelf.
Let him dig it then leave him there.

This is what i find most upsetting about every terrifying and outrageous thing that's happened in our country over the past year. The fact that so many Americans voted for this and still blindly or maybe not so blindly still support this administration is the most disturbing part of it all.
That sleazy old motherfucker has cost me more sleep than anyone else I can think of. I've been saying for months, HE'S CRAZY AND NEEDS TO BE REMOVED NOW! And, nobody will listen to someone like me. I knew the raving maniac didn't belong in the White House to begin with, I sure as fuck didn't vote for him. I've NEVER voted for him. But, shit's gettin' real deep, and someone better step the fuck up and DO something about this unhinged sonuvabitch
Thank you Jeff. On point, as usual
Trump's popularity among Republican voters is only slightly flagging, and the 25th Amendment and Impeachment are not viable options. So it will take a skeet shooter who can do better than nick ears to deliver the nation.
I was hoping the Idiot's narcissisic collapse would be amusing. Sadly, no. I don't think there's any coming back from this. America is the bad guy now.
Why, how can that be? Many world leaders -- big men, strong men with tears in their eyes -- are telling him we're the "hottest" country.
Or maybe they're just telling him to go to hell.
I think the tears in their eyes thing is real. It happens when they get a little too close to him and inhale.
We're the hottest country no one wants to visit. I noticed Scott Bessent said the U.S. is "hot" (as if it were a Mar-a-Lago wife), so that's standard smarmy Trump cabinet speak now. No other world leader describes their own country as "hot."
True. Foreign tourism is down. We've become a pariah nation.
Bessent lies just like the rest of them and he’s creepy!
