"The overwhelming sense I got from watching the president was just trying to count the number of lies, and I ran out of fingers and toes. He lied and said that prices are coming down. He lied when he said prices were at an all-time high under President Biden. They're at an all-time high right now."

Repubs: what if we tried to stage a coup to put white Christian nationalists and Trump loyalists in charge of the deep state, only to find out the whole lot was incompetent?

I can’t believe that effing Chuck Schumer and I overlapped as Harvard undergrads (I was there 1966-70; he was there 1967-71) during the height of student unrest!

How can we have any confidence that the Trump loyalist-controlled Bureau of Labor Statistics inflation report later today will report a real inflation rate as opposed to a falsified inflation rate that reflects Trump’s wishes?

The MSM praised Trump’s “miraculous Mideast peace deal” last week with 24-7 coverage. “He should get the Nobel Peace Prize” they shouted!
Where’s the coverage now that it’s on the verge of collapse. Or shouting at Zelensky to capitulate to the demands of Putin one day after a call from Vlad?

I checked my relatively dormant Twitter account this morning and saw a post with a picture of Obama, with the accompanying tweet asking “didn’t the downfall of the USA begin with the election of this man?”, followed by hundreds of replies in agreement. MAGA and twitter are now out and proud racists

Flipping through MSM on TV this morning to hear them all gushing about Israel and Hamas have agreed to “a framework” for a peace deal thanks to the strong American leadership in the region. How many frameworks have been agreed to during the past 2 years only to fall apart? Boy the MSM is lionizing T

I am aghast to learn that Attorney Lindsey Galligan graduated from a Jesuit college - Regis University in Colorado. But then again Justice Kavanaugh graduated Georgetown Prep HS, another Jesuit School. I have the utmost respect for many Jesuits, but am upset that many of their grads chose the dark

I was just mopping my kitchen floor and turned on NPR, only to hear Charlie Kirk being lionized as a great, far thinking conservative celebrity, so I switched to a yacht rock station.

Turned on Morning Joe to discover Joe vociferously defending MSNBC management’s firing of Matthew Dowd for truthfully discussing how the hateful speech of Charlie Kirk has contributed to the country’s violence. I switched to The Weather Channel

I give up. I’ll be 77 in 10 months. Fascists are now in control of the USA. My father bombed fascists to hell in 1944-45 when he was 20-21
I had friends register black voters in the 1960s. I marched against Vietnam 1968-70. We adopted the Voting rights act.

So EJ Antoni got his undergraduate education at Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary, a college that prepares young men for the priesthood, then went on to Northern Illinois University for his MA and PhD in economics. So he washed out of the seminary, but found his calling as an economist

I think I’ve finally figured out how Trump bankrupted his Atlantic City casinos, his airline, his steaks, his university, etc. - because he only hires people to run his business ventures who are loyal to him alone, regardless whether they are incompetent or not

Made the mistake of taking a look at Morning Joe this morning, only to hear him normalize Trump’s proposed meeting with Putin to discuss Ukraine…as if Donald will be different now than he was with Putin in Helsinki

I remember back in 1971 and 1972 when I was in grad school at Wesleyan (Middletown, CT), the highlight of each week was always Sunday, when my housemates and I would chip in to buy 2 copies of the Sunday NYT and 2 copies of the WAPO and sit around, with an always percolating coffee pot, just reading

I’m beginning to think that Donald has decompressed into believing that he has become the reincarnation of Louis Quatorze so naturally he’s trying to turn the White House into Versailles, replete with faux gold throughout the WH and a new ballroom he hopes will recreate the gilded splendor of Louis
