Hell, they should charge tickets for an "outdoor performance" of Chuck Redd getting a crowbar to pry the first "T" off the side of the building - they'd get a million dollars to pay the lawsuit against him, easy. It would be this millennium's version of the end of "It's a Wonderful Life".

Why in the hell wouldn't they report this? On a daily basis, they're getting lied to their face if not outright insulted while at work, and then get death threats as the "Enemy of the People" when they get home. They can't ALL be spineless access-happy courtier scum - can they?

Trump couldn't have acted more completely guilty than if he ripped his orange face off to reveal he's been Jeffrey Epstein this whole time.

Seeing as how that end came about from Trump KILLING HIM, that's a weird definition of "loyalty", even by his non-competent standards.

After January 6th, someone, somehow got him to keep his mouth shut - for WEEKS (it was such sustained silence people thought he was having a health crisis at the time).
Imagine - day after day without hearing from Donald Trump. I want a statue for those heroes - THAT'S some Peace to Award Nobely!

Great - what's f'n next? "We're also cancelling all funding on solar projects, because solar panels make Baby Jesus cry and we need his help this Christmas when we invade Venezuela?" ?!? The smug amenability to state ridiculous horseshit right to people's faces is 9 kinds of revolting.

Since he started claiming it a "hoax" and "old news", he couldn't have acted more guilty about this than if his orange mask was ripped off and it's revealed he's been Jeffrey Epstein this whole time.

Simple - act like John McCain when he was holding a town hall running against Obama in 2008 where when an audience member called Obama an Arab, McCain corrected her and called Obama a decent citizen he just disagreed with.

He embodies the Sin Of Pride so completely that not only should his picture appear in the Bible next to where it was mentioned, but if it DID show up there, he'd be happy to show it off (if not sell copies of the Bible doing just that)

Show ONE OTHER PERSON IN HISTORY who had his hand injured from handshakes. Have ONE DOCTOR testify that a hand would get these kinds of injuries from handshaking. SHOW THE TAPE of him shaking EVERY SINGLE PERSON'S HAND at a rally to get this kind of injury. SO sick of the blatant lying impunity!

Who's the White Hosue Press reporter who'll finally snap and say, "Sedition?The people need to know the health of their President, and you're hiding it right now! Right there! What the hell are you hiding your right hand for?!? You want people to think you're healthy? Show us your hand! SHOW IT!

Enough! Threatening the lives of people who question the health of a guy spray-painting himself a non-corpse color, falls asleep in meetings, and, most ridiculously, for weeks has clearly been hiding his right hand tighter than a grandmother clutching her purse at a bus stop?

That's a tribute to David Byrne's 'Big Suit' during "Stop Making Sense". He'll use it to break into a rendition of "Life During Wartime", and you'll never guess what recent video will be playing in the background while he renders it.

Roberts needs to be STRIPPED - a public ceremony where the robes are ripped off his body and burnt. It's clear the other 3 wipe their asses with theirs, but Roberts always had these sneering pretensions of maintaining the court's 'legacy'. He should be made painfully aware what his legacy will be.

Look on the bright side - he could have woken up and started talking about what he thinks about African people. (What a perfect time to bring up all that '''White Genocide''' going on in South Africa, for instance?)

Isn't that a Jeff Foxworthy bit? "If the corrupt President pardons a corrupt Congress for a corrupt reason and you look for cover to a corrupt Supreme Court - well then you may just might have a possibility of being a redneck, I mean, corrupt"

6 months from now: "The Post consulted a half-dozen entomologists and multiple audio experts to confirm flies buzzing around his head - still no explanation from him as to why he's wearing sunglasses indoors or been seen vocalizing a statement for the past 3 weeks."

Congress could be COMPLETELY full of Democrats, from the Speaker to the last janitor and security guard, and they STILL won't do jack. Hell, Jeffries and Schumer could call for his impeachment and removal NOW, when it costs them no political capital to do so, and they still won't!
