If 100% of registered Democrats voted in 2026, Democrats would take control of the House and Senate with enough of a majority to impeach and convict the entire trump cartel and the corrupt members of the Supreme Court.
Fewer than 65% voted in 2024.
35% couldn't be bothered.
And that gave us Trump.

The GOP pretends to be blind and deaf whenever they are asked a hard question.
RUBIO: Maduro was indicted. Nobody ever did anything about it.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Hernandez was convicted by a jury
RUBIO: The pardon authority is something I'm not involved in
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support it?
RUBIO: I wasn't involved in those deliberations. I haven't looked at the case file.

Reporter: "You didn't prevent looting and crime after removing Saddam?"
Condoleezza Rice: "I'm not very good at long-term planning."
She nailed the GOP's biggest problem with everything they do.

“.. There is no evidence that anyone on the Trump team has thought about what will happen tomorrow, or next week, or next year ..
“.. we’re not even 24 hours into this .. Decades later, we’re still dealing with the aftermath in Afghanistan and Iraq.”

Tom Cotton: "Congress isn't notified when the FBI is going to arrest a drug trafficker or cyber criminal here in the US, nor should Congress be notified when the executive branch is executing arrests on indicted persons. And that's really what you can make the analogy to here."

Like most news lately, this should be satire, but it's not.

FOLKS NEED TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THIS IS
For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot.
That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.

He is so stupid he doesn't realize that the *only* reason he is asked to take this test (repeatedly) is that his doctors note cognitive decline.

My hat is off to DaWokeFarmer and the job he’s doing. He is uniquely qualified to irritate the piss out of these ICE hoods. I’m glad he’s on our side. Keep it up, my dear man. Everyone in my family got ICE whistles in their stockings this year, so we’re doing our part!

Not the "total exoneration" the orange freak insisted it was.
JACK SMITH: “We had proof beyond a reasonable doubt Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election, prevent the peaceful transfer of power, retained classified docs, obstructed justice… I’d charge an ex president again regardless of party.”

Last year, a friend with a subscription service:
Friend: Hispanic customers are terrible at paying on time.
Me: Do you print their statements in Spanish?
Friend: <blank stare>
Update: She printed statements in Spanish, and now Hispanic customers aren't any different than the rest.
I know, shocker.
