I feel like the right gets a lot more representation from their reps than liberals do. Democratic politicians always want to apologize for being liberal, and Republicans don't mind being raging assholes and don't apologize for it.

I cannot believe this is a real statement from my senator.
President Trump’s actions today with Venezuela raise more questions than answers. Is America going to be involved in running and stabilizing Venezuela? Today's actions raise many questions about the stability of the region and our policy towards South America.

This is how it's done. If incumbent Democrats won't do the job, their primary challengers can and will use this to make sure someone else does
The Republican Congress has chosen to give away its authority and power and now we are being told Trump plans to occupy Venezuela. We don't cry for Maduro. We demand the following of our laws and Constitution. He is already threatening Mexico and Cuba will be next. Ann Wagner is silent.

![BRETT: Hi, I’m Brett! For the last cartoon of the year, I thought I’d give you a peek behind the scenes of Doom Loop
-For starters, let me just say I’m gonna miss Mayor Bruce a LOT [portrait of Bruce that says "Better Things Aren't Possible" with candles around it]
-His need to be liked plus his devotion to a deeply unpopular status quo made him a reliable font of hilarity
-when i first started doing this cartoon people would accuse me of constructing strawmen to ridicule certain civic attitudes

Bari Weiss is the logical endpoint of corporate media. This is what happens when people who hate journalism are in charge of it. The only way journalism works is when it’s independent from the power it’s supposed to hold to account, which means ownership can’t have anything to do with those in power

One of my favorite running bits is that Donald Trump over the past decade has repeatedly indicated that he believes stealth aircraft are physically invisible.
Absolutely world-class stupidity. You’ve never met someone this stupid. He’d be the stupidest person in any room you’ve ever been in.

Trump: "The only time anybody could see those planes was when those bomb chutes open up, because it becomes totally un-stealth. You're going in, you go like this. As soon as it goes like this, for some reason the plane is totally visible. Not good. I watched it happening. I watched it go bing bing"

This normalizes corruption, feeding the sentiment that both sides suck and so politics is pointless. A Dem party focused on rehabilitating its broken brand would be criticizing Trump and booting out Cuellar. Let the corrupt guys become corporate lobbyists - they’re dragging our party down.
Jeffries claims the charges against Cueller were "very thin" and says Trump's pardon was "exactly the right outcome"

The NY Times said Trump labeling Somalis as “garbage” was “shocking in its unapologetic bigotry.” Then NYT put the story on Page 13. When Trump called for “termination” of the Constitution in 2022, NYT put it on Page 13, too. In case you wonder if NYT has learned anything in the last 3 years. 1/🧵

I want us to hang on to the fact that the people who were murdered were just civilians out in boats, most likely fishermen, who had never even heard the sketchy conclusions of American officials for which they were executed, much less had a chance to defend themselves.
Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."

Corporate Media is going to pretend that Trump is heartbroken about the two West Virginian National Guardsmen being shot in DC, but the entire point of moving a standing army into a peaceful city was to induce violence by The People to justify more violence by Trump on The People in retaliation.
