Oh God!

In a year or two are journos still going to be reporting that Trump is really thisclose to releasing his health care plan and getting Putin to Yes on Ukraine?

We're all trapped in a loop like Tom Cruise in 'Edge of Tomorrow' and of course Bill Murray in 'Groundhog Day.'
Trump sending America’s top diplomats.

MAGAs furious if called Fascists though many act like them (Miller/Leavitt the worst).

Ok, can we agree many are textbook totalitarians who use Fear & Newspeak to create reality so that Upper Class persuades Middle Class to keep proles credulous?

See "Orwell: 2+2=5" on Prime.
Leavitt: "We believe the attorney in this case, Lindsey Halligan, is not only extremely qualified for this position but she was in fact legally appointed ... maybe Comey should pump the brakes on his victory lap."

As Galbraith said of Black Tuesday - "The end had come but was not yet in sight."

Congressional vote on Epstein files + weak eco will spur pols & institutions not to "fear fear itself," Trump's real leverage.

Will be more more obvious nearing July 4 when celebrate "WE the People" not TrumpTories.

A TALE OF OPPOSITES:

*ZELENSKY, refusing pro-Russian peace "plan", stands up to Trump and Putin w/his life & country at stake.

*JOHNSON, whenever asked about Trump's corruption & puerile comments, always says "don't know context...not my lane ...wouldn't use those words..."

Courage vs. Cowardice

1/Trump's zig-zag in character:

*since ok w/lying & thinks voters recall little, he'll say opposite one day to next
*he's guided by what generates the most news - here that means lauding Mamdani
*after blowback yesterday saying Dems should be executed, it's a smart recovery.
Trump: He said some things that were very interesting and very interesting as to housing construction and he wants to see houses go up and apartments created. People would be shocked. I want to see the same thing.

Jeffries is on fire condemning President Bone Spurs for suggesting that six veterans in Congress be executed for "treason".
Jeffries: "What's extraordinary to me is that Mike Johnson doesn't even have the decency to distance himself from Donald Trump's death threats leveled at patriotic members of Congress. Even John Thune had the decency to distance himself from Trump's remarks. But Mike Johnson couldn't say a thing."

Rep. Massie: "Pres & Vice-Pres could’ve spared our party humiliation if they’d just done the right thing months ago.”

Anyone have Massie on bingo card as our Joseph Welch - he began Joe McCarthy's downfall w/ "have you no decency sir?" - who'd puncture Trump/Johnson's lying cover-up of Epstein?

First, Carlson claims to be "just asking questions," now amplifying fascist views is merely "free speech."

Nah. Of course he can say what he wants...and just did. But critics are also "free" to condemn him.

This isn't GOVERMENT suppression of 1A, only the "marketplace of ideas." bit.ly/4r28XcQ
Once He Was ‘Just Asking Questions.’ Now Tucker Carlson Is the Question.
The conservative commentator has further fractured the right with his anti-Israel rhetoric and sympathy for a white nationalist. He’s not in the mood to apologize.

AMAZING...REALLY.

Here are the total # of points Alcaraz and Sinner have each won over their 16 head-to-head matches:

Alcaraz:1651 points
Sinner: 1651 points

Anything remotely similiar in the history of sports?
Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are the only two players who have reached double digit finals in 2025.

Jannik Sinner - 10.

Carlos Alcaraz - 11.

Dominating together. 🇮🇹🇪🇸

2/...and neutered their legislatures + his own generals (Kelly/Milley) called DT "fascist"

@gutfeldfox.bsky.social also accuses Dems of governing on "fear."

HAHA: a) #47 told Woodward that HIS core tactic was "fear" to frighten opponents & Dems fears of climate & DictatorDon both true & dangerous.

1/ Gutfield appears a delusional fool in NYT interview today w/two bedrock beliefs:

1st, how dare anyone call Trump a "Hitler...Fascist!" True, no one's the genocidal Hitler of 1937-45 yet alot of overlap in their 1st yrs (absorb legislatures, repression, hate speech, xtra-legal SS/ICE violence...)

When future generations ask who defrocked the most corrupt President ever, @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com will be seen as our Edward R, Murrow for his brilliant nightly MSNOW commentaries on Team Trump...like tonight's on Todd Blanche's incoherence on Epsten.
November 14, 2025 at 4:08 AM
Trump down to babbling lazy lies at bill signing - Mamdani's a commie, gas at $2...

It's all a frantic reaction to looming disasters: more incriminating Epstein disclosures & a restored BLS that documents a weak economy.

Can a con-artist who makes Penzi look small survive? TBC.

For one example: Trump's trajectory is so awful and his impulse for distraction so powerful that either killing Maduro or invading Venezuela have gone from come-on! to probable.
Tuesday night's across-the-board shellacking shows that PeakTrump is over and he'll now say&do even more bizarre things to pretend that he hasn't finally hit that iceberg.

HMS Trumpanic is sinking.

Don King is a genius compared to King Don.

And Mad King George was lucid throughout the Revolutionary War and became demented only in the 1810s near the end of his almost 60 year regency.
As his mental faculties are increasingly compromised, he becomes more and more a caricature of himself.

As his retinue is obsequious toadies, that makes him more and more dangerous.
Update: here’s the post.

Trump threatens Hamas w/more "violence" to set them straight.

Really? His argument is that Israel wasn't violent enough? Has he seen photos of Gaza recently?
That’s one way to win a peace prize, right?
Trump on Hamas: "They did things they shouldn't be doing, and if they keep doing it then we're gonna go in and straighten it out and it'll happen very quickly and pretty violently unfortunately."
