Back from the dead...and really not happy about what is happening today.

As I once incorrectly said “History Doesn't Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes”.

Nope. We have seen this before...
You can't make this shit up. I had to check to see if this was The Onion but...nope. reality.

Dude, at a minimum, needs to learn to read the room.

Accurate? Also yup.

As I once said "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."

MAGA says the Epstein files mean whatever they need them to mean, at that very moment, and it changes moment to moment.

Never mind this is a multi-billion dollar 20th century solution for 21st century warfare, to be sunk by a $15,000 drone, they will be "... aesthetic..."?

No blood for oil

The Bush administration was making similar arguments during the lead-up to the Iraq War. Just substitute nuclear weapons and Fentanyl

Fentanyl is the casus belli for war and regime change. Venezuela does not produce Fentanyl Venezuela DOES have 17% of the world's oil reserves

Ever notice no one from the 60's tells stories of beating up hippies, oppressing Civil Rights marchers, or supporting Nixon?

Make sure you can proudly tell your grandkids what you did in 2025.

Nobody from the 60's talks about sitting on the sidelines either

The Trump Phone Delivers on Its Promise of Being Complete and Utter Bullshit
The T1 Trump phone “for Americans,” remains in the star-spangled ether, & means anyone dumb—er, patriotic enough to put $100 on an obvious knockoff will have to wait to receive their very-much-not-made-in-America device.

It was a torrent of lies and exaggerations ‒ about the economy, about prices, about immigrants ‒ that must have caused dozens of fact-checkers to spontaneously combust.

The ONE thing tariffs had the potential to positively impact was the return of manufacturing jobs to America.

The reality one year in?

Highest unemployment in 4 years and a LOSS of 63,000 jobs in manufacturing.

Are we great yet? 🙄
