Exactly. If they give one aspect of agency to 13 year old children, those children deserve all aspects, including voting rights to vote these monstrous morons out.

Memo to Langford: if you’re arguing that 13 year olds can ‘consent’ to sex, I guess you’re fine with 4 year olds having guns, because they’re definitely capable of shooting them.
‘Moralizing’ creeps who have no morals.

Gorgeous flowers to celebrate a great pack put together by the exceedingly generous Maricella Brooks 🙏 and as always, stronger together 🌄

The Epstein-Rump statue looks really, really heavy, just wondering if a helicopter could pick it up and drop it on rump’s ballroom. Would be the perfect cherry on top.
It's back up again in Washington DC
Over on 14th street and V in front of busboys and poets

The Friendship Statue of trump and epstein
"FRIENDS FOREVER "

It is over 12 feet tall

Every single one of these questions deserve to be answered. Wish congress would do its damned job for a change 🤬
Hey, Mr. President,

Why are you actually in the Epstein files? Thousands of times?

Why did you have thanksgiving dinner with him in 2017?

Why did Epstein die while in your custody?

Why have you been lying to us?

It might be easier (& quicker) for mainstream media & the rest of us to note the rare times, if ever, rump tells the truth. Or maybe some sort of abbreviation we all agree on, like (t) for truth & (l) for lie in front of every rump quote. Might bother him enough to simply shut up.
This is only one of the many lies from Trump that will be exposed each time more Epstein/Trump Documents are released. Karoline Leavitt‘s fascist little head will twist off trying to spin this lie. #ProudBlue

Seems pretty damning when sex trafficker Epstein is emailing a friend?/client warning that rump is even a worse human than he appears to be.

My mama always told me: Don’t judge a book by its cover. Conceptually I agree. But I swear rump acolytes are just the weirdest collection of creepy uglies I have ever come across.

Probably so rump & crew can just call is The Commission and not have to worry about what Fine Art is or means. They are the most illiterate & culturally unaware people in the universe.

The statistics always get them since blue states have far better numbers when it comes to health, education, economy, overall quality of life. And blue states share, helping to fund most of red state programs-more successful, more tax $. So I think what the senator meant to say was ‘thank you.’

Although in these recent photos, it’s as if he’s frozen, has no idea what to do. He’s never had empathy so it’s not like he could lose it. Maybe it’s understanding, he losing (or lost) the ability to understand what’s happening around him anymore.
The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough.

When the focus is on such silly things… so glad the jury disagreed. Imagine if they hadn’t, courts & jails packed with all those sandwich throwers.
Jeanine Pirro bragging in August that she just arrested Sandwich Guy and was going to teach him a lesson in court.

The colors are so muted, it’s like someone accidentally added bleach to the wash.

Butt boy: new military designation for those on rump duty. “It’s an honor sir to wrangle your butt.”
When your presidency runs on manual transmission.

The hypocrisy is on display every single day, while truth has become a rare commodity. These are the worst of times…
November 7, 2025 at 12:46 PM
Any chance rump was in Mexico that day? Sounds like his MO.

I like a world in which elections bring good news & hope not hate! And it happened from sea to shining sea, even Georgia posted some Dem wins! No doom scrolling or depression today 😁

It’s just so strange, I never stopped saying Merry Christmas, each year I’ve put up a Christmas tree, hung a wreath on the front door, usually make the Xmas eve services. And, get this, in all cases it’s happened in an overwhelmingly blue state. Go figure…
November 4, 2025 at 11:18 PM
Even God is making fun of rump and his ‘thank you for your attention blah, blah, blah….
Hi, I’m God.

Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thanks,

God

60 Minutes stopped being a news show when CBS sold its soul to right wingers, giving control of its programming to Bari Weiss.

My predictions for Tuesday's elections is a clean sweep for Democrats and democracy:

NJ: Sherrill wins.
VA: Spanberger wins.
NYC: Mamdani wins.
CA: Prop 50 passes.
ME: Q1 fails.
PA: SCOPA Justices are retained.
