Trump said the reviews of his speech in Davos were good, that people were impressed. He really is delusional - on a world stage he flaunts bat-shit crazy for all to see. Are there a lot of proud Republicans snug in their beds tonight? You voted for this, right?

Just a couple of thoughts for New Year’s Day: I still have trouble with the fact that a person who tried to subvert an election was allowed to run again. I think history will ask that question. And it’s sad that the worst president in our history is in office for our 250th birthday.

Craft beer will price itself out of existence. Eight-fifty for a 14-ounce pour (though they may call it a pint) is too much. I’m sitting in my local brewery and I may never come back. The 19-dollar burger doesn’t help much. And do I taste adjuncts in my Alt beer?

Members of Congress smilingly sit for Christmas photos holding assault weapons; Trump pardons the mob that stormed the Capital; A Fox anchor says the homeless should be euthanized. And yet it is the rhetoric of the ‘radical left’ that is clawing at the fabric of our country. I don’t think so.

Hey Trumpy, wanna start cleaning up political rhetoric, let’s start with the shit that comes out of your mouth. You are a hypocritical POS.

RFK Jr. kinda got his ass handed to him today. His incompetence was painfully on display.

Secretary Noem claims CBS edited an interview that “white washes the truth”. The fact is she does not deal in truth, nor does her president. I have another fact for her: she is a member of the worst cabinet assembled in the history of this country. We deserve better than Kristi Noem.

When Trump told America that Haitian immigrants were eating pets, I thought “Well, that’s new-level bullshit.” Stephen Miller has just found his way to new heights. He recently said that RFK Jr. is the world’s leading expert on health care. How much further can the GOP go?

Does Stephen Miller give off a Nazi vibe, or is it just me? I detect a dash of Goebbles in his delivery.

Billy, what the heck! I really thought the skill set of an auctioneer would easily translate into those needed to manage a large government agency. RFK Jr. doesn’t have a science or medical background and look at the great job he’s doing. You just needed more time, right? Going once, going twice!

I see RFK Jr is relying on his science background to make decisions that will impact the health of our country. I don’t know about you, but I feel safe.

Kevin Hassett smiles a lot when he perverts the truth. According to the Kev, Covid is responsible for the corruption of the jobs’ numbers. Gawd, what an idiot.

I was under the impression that the main purpose of the Supreme Court was analysis and interpretation. The shadow docket provides neither. And they do not have to explain their decisions. I have lost all faith in Roberts’ (Trump’s) Court.

Hawley was always going to vote for the BBB. He strutted a bit, puffed his wee chest out a bit; but in the end he made his predictable choice. I’m sure he will lead a noble fight against the upcoming Medicaid cuts. Well, that’s what he said!

Trump governs like a crime boss - this seems OK with Congress and the six Justices. The BBB, once the uninformed become the brutally informed after losing their health care, will end some Republican careers. Not enough. Children will be the hardest hit when Medicaid goes away.

Brooke Rollins is an idiot. First of all, does she really believe that Medicaid is populated with 35 year-olds living in basements playing video games? (Did she also believe Haitians were eating pets in Ohio?) This is just a smoke screen for the cruelty of Trump’s bill.

When Johnson’s gavel came down, I saw Republicans congratulating each other, smiling broadly and shaking hands. What were they celebrating? Millions losing their health care? Millions of children losing food programs? Billionaires’ tax breaks? Adding 3 trillion to the debt? Gotta love the GOP.

Red states, ask your Republican senators how they’re going to spend their 30 pieces of silver. They just turned their backs on the most vulnerable of their constituents. For what? Remember their names when your health care vanishes; remember their names when your hospital closes.
