The Kennedy Center is a living memorial to a fallen president and named for President Kennedy by federal law. It can no sooner be renamed than can someone rename the Lincoln Memorial, no matter what anyone says.

My feeling about tonight's speech, courtesy of Taylor:

I'll tell you something right now
I'd rather burn my whole life down
Than listen to one more second of all his bitching and moaning

Boo! Bow down to him if you want, bow to him. Bow to the king of slime, the king of filth, the king of putrescence. Boo. Boo. Rubbish. Filth. Slime. Muck. Boo! Boo! Boo!

Shared sentiment

My opinion of Trump is best expressed through Buttercup’s words about Humperdinck from Rob Reiner’s “The Princess Bride”.

He is nothing but a coward with a heart full of fear. And when I say he’s a coward, that is only because he is the slimiest weakling ever to crawl the earth.

Exclusive: Trump’s Department of Veterans Affairs will abruptly eliminate as many as 35,000 health care positions this month. The cuts come after a massive reorganization effort already resulted in the loss of almost 30,000 employees.
VA plans to abruptly eliminate tens of thousands of health care jobs
Strains on the Veterans Affairs system could grow with the elimination of as many as 35,000 mostly unfilled health care positions, including doctors and nurses.

My quote of the day

How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg? Four. Saying that a tail is a leg doesn't make it a leg.

I would like to point out that all these donors who are suddenly stepping forward to give the felon what he wants, like his ballroom, is proof that they can afford to pay more in taxes.

ICE was created post 9/11 to combat terrorist threats. If they aren't combatting the number one terror threat to America - Domestic Violent Extremism and white supremacists - then they don't need to exist as an agency.

"I never wrote a picture in my life" he says.

"It's all a Democrat Hoax" he says.

$10 Billion lawsuit vs. the Wall Street Journal still on he says.

Wonder what he'll say in the deposition when asked about his pal EPSTEIN & their daily "wonderful secrets"?

I’m not a White House reporter anymore but I think a president desperately trying to rig the midterms is pretty big news.

"Newsom’s threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."
Gavin Newsom's moment
Democrats have found their fight. Newsom is leading the charge.
