El Gordo himself posted this image. This is not something that a well person would do. This one appears to feel threatened - and he has the nuclear codes.

El Gordo will complete demolition of the entire East Wing of the White House by the weekend - without any of the required approvals. He labeled the White House "a very small building," apparently of little consequence. BUT IT IS NOT HIS! IT IS OURS! Here's the canker replacing the EW:

Nothing demonstrates your contempt for Americans - ALL Americans - like pooping on them. How much more shame is MAGA willing to take before waking up to the disdain that El Gordo shows them?

Now DJT wants the arrest of Illinois's governor and Chicago's mayor for...what? Upsetting his lunch? Saying unkind stuff? Protecting their citizens? The Bulwark shared a video showing ICE agents atop a building. One fires a smoke round at the priest in the lower left, striking him in the head.

Culpeper Dems and supporters from around the Piedmont rallied today to celebrate Labor Day and decry DJT's tariffs, firings, and undermining of social safety nets. His Nibs honored the holiday by ... nothing. Apparently, he took the day off, too.
