The way the meeting went between Mamdani & Trump wasn't on anybody bingo card!
Reporter: "Do you think Trump is a fascist?"
Trump: "It's OK. You can say yes. It's easier than explaining."
Mamdani: "Alright. OK, yes."

What substance did they give Trump before this? And do they have any more?

Hi JoJo,
I was also in the 101st Airborne Division, 3rd Brigade, early to mid 70's. Also married for 40+ years, and anti-fascist. It is good to make your acquaintance.
Pics attached of our current yard signs as we are a week away from No Kings 2.0.

Waffler-in-Chief Trump plays both sides in his comments re the Ukraine/Russia war, but actually does nothing. This way he can claim to be on the winning side whoever wins.

Such a clueless, useless leader. I wish he would just STFU.

Regarding MAGA Workd going up against South Park....I just had an image of "bag of dicks eating a bag of dicks". It is messing me up. 🤪
Oh, and I'm terribly sorry, too.

This is a funny parody of a sick-but-real parody. I feel like I am caught in a very weird existence loop. It is messing me up!

I thought the Epstein files are still unseen. Apparently tRump knows something about who is in the files, including these details about Bill Clinton. From tRump:
"You ought be speaking about Bill Clinton, who went to the island 28 times."

Great article on why some people, including 1/3 of Americans, do not accept evolutionary science.

Reminds me of one of my favorite sayings (I have it on a button): Creationists evolved too, but not as much."

So glad to be a born-again atheist!
Only 64% of Americans accept the idea of evolution — here's one reason why
Fundamentalists don't necessarily examine evolution and then reject it; they tend to start with the conclusion that it must be false and work backwards.

Fire Up the Protest Music! Music was a big part of the protests of the ‘60s & ‘70s! I’ll start with one of my favorites, the largely unknown “She is Always Seventeen” by Harry Chapin.

Political yard signs are statements of belief AND a call to action. People need to take action; simply showing up to be counted right now is a very big deal.

Here are the yard signs we have currently posted.

Good piece on Trump-Musk fighting as bullies, and the future of the Republican Party after Trump.
This assumes there will be an "after Trump" time.

'Republicans have a reckoning on the horizon': How MAGA can't survive without Trump
I don’t think the cat fight between Elon Musk and Donald Trump is staged or fake. At the same time, I don’t think either man means it. To be sure, Trump has said that maybe he should cancel Musk’s gov...

“Inconceivable!”
“You keep on using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
[from The Princess Bride]

"Unbelievable!”
The word I keep saying when I read MAGA reporting every day. Well, it can no longer be unbelievable.
“I do not think it means what I think it means!”

WH Press Secretary asks why US taxpayers are subsidizing a university (Harvard) that has billions.

She did not ask why US taxpayers have subsidized fossil fuel suppliers for decades when they have seriously more money than Harvard. Or all the other subsidized wealthy businesses.

Hypocrisy again.

Just returned from the "Hands Off" protest rally at the Minnesota capitol. It was so energizing and invigorating being with thousands and thousands of rational thinking people. We have to continue to show up. We still have the power to change course!

Article undocumented parents & their USA-born children living in Texas. On their way for cancer care for a child, parents were deported & chose to stay together. Read comment that Trump Admin has lost all of their humanity. That can't be as they had not one shred of humanity when they took power.

BREAKING NEWS OVERNIGHT!
Another Executive Order Signed replacing the US Constitution at the National Archives with the Project 2025 Handbook and Guide.

Make no mistake, this is a goal. A full third of the people want this, another third doesn't, and another third doesn't yet care.

DO YOU CARE?

I have taken a break since the election political news. I have been political for most of my 70 years and will continue to be again soon. In respect for tomorrow's events, I put out our election yard sign so as to continue to speak out. Not the dream candidates, but the better choice. ÷ a sticker.

Here it comes; it's finally happening. The weather is cooperating.
Monday in Washington DC will be a cold day in our new hell!
TFG (that felon guy) is forced inside for the inauguration. There will be a lot of things outside of his control during the upcoming 4-year train wreck.
