Giving a voice to all the things Pete is too polite to say out loud, a Pete, not The Pete.
Everyone needs to keep in mind that Mitch McConnell's hand looked just like this for a while in the recent past, yet he's still haunting the halls of the Senate.

We can't allow ourselves to be complacent and hope fate solves everything. Vance will pick right up where Trump leaves off.

In other breaking news ... water is wet, and the sky is blue.

Of course they all knew. This is the era of fame and profit over everything. Facts are for suckers. Why tell the truth when lies bring in so much more revenue?

May FOX be sued into oblivion and then sold off to Meidas Touch Network.

I can't even be shocked anymore if this is true. The line of GOP and MAGA reps and supporters that wrap themselves in Christian values while being hypocrites on a personal level stretches beyond the horizon.

Two of the most try-hard, pick-me personalities on the right. They deserve each other.
August 21, 2025 at 1:07 PM
Shhh ... let MAGA keep digging in on this. Stand back and admire the confidently incorrect stupidity of what they are saying. If they want to show black MAGA supporters who they really are, let them cook.

Waiting to start hearing him play the repeater game on this.

Trump: People are saying you can't have elections during a war. All the biggest and smartest scholars have said to me, "Sir, you know there can't be elections during a war." I should get a Nobel Prize for not starting a war ... yet.

As much as Trump continues to be utterly inept as a leader and only seems capable at dismantling democracy without actually building anything of value or having any real policy, I wish him and MAGA luck taking on the heavy lift of attempting to rewrite history regarding slavery. Good luck with that.

Seems like the first places all delivery drivers should decline to deliver to are any federal government offices.

As the fake Dr Phil likes to say, "How's that working for you?"
August 20, 2025 at 1:35 PM
Well well well, if it isn't the consequences of his own actions coming back to cost him his job. I suppose he can now devote himself to owning the libs full time.

I mean, Trump is a clown for far more than that as well. Please don't sell him short.

Anyone with a brain can see that Trump is focused on the Nobel Prize because Obama received one and he hasn't. I'm sure he has an all caps social media post all set to go if he gets it.
August 20, 2025 at 1:09 PM
Thanks Obama ... wait, I mean this is clearly all Biden's fault.

I'm sure Trump has a plan to fix this and he will roll it out in his standard "two weeks" right after he's done solving world peace and making eggs and fuel less expensive.

Step 1: Remove mail-in voting

Step 2: Suppress voters by passing ID laws and limit polling locations

Step 3: Send ICE or MAGA goons to "supervise" polling locations and dissuade black, brown, LGBTQ+ people from voting

Step 4: Claim massive fraud

Step 5: Claim victory before the votes are counted

Imagine how elections would end up if Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Texas had fair maps drawn. We could be having debate on healthcare, social safety net programs, or solar incentives instead of waiting for Trump's next step in dismantling our democracy.

ICE knows exactly what they are doing here. Grab kids for trafficking, maybe, but likely not. You grab the young kids because then there is a solid chance you make their parents come to you, then you can deport them all.

We must resist, then abolish ICE when we can.

Why is Bill Joyce dressed like he just came from Magaritaville?

Dems need to stop with this politeness. Push your way in, force them to arrest you.

At some point, Republicans may realize AOC is not the one they want to play this game with. She's not the usual 60+ years old congress member who speaks in platitudes and curated sound bites. She will shout people down with snark and wit with the quickness.

This is petty, and I fully support it. Calling out the idiocy in public will help keep it from being normalized.
May 6, 2025 at 10:05 AM
It's as if Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito would be complaining about how they are spoken about in the newspapers.

This entire Trump admin is beyond tone deaf and seemingly borders on braindead most days.

They want to do the worst things and then be thanked for doing them. I think not.
April 30, 2025 at 6:40 PM
This may not be the flex they think it is. I can see this policy going horribly wrong when a masked ICE agent breaks into someone's home in TX or FL, and a gunfight breaks out.

This is going to end badly for certain. It's just a matter of how long until it happens.

Until we start seeing politicians who commit crimes doing perp walks and getting real prison time, this will continue to happen.

We can add this to the long list of things that need to be corrected in our politics.
