When I was a kid, stores had “grab bags.” Items wrapped in brown paper and for a few bucks you took your chances - not knowing what you’d get.
Anyway, that’s what the news feels like now but every grab bag surprise is a different kind of excrement. And instead of paying for it, we voted for it.

Astonishing to stop and realize that, at any given moment, bands of masked men armed to the teeth are storming churches and daycares, terrorizing entire communities—and that most of the country's political establishment barely blinks.

My kid graduated in our living room to livestream announcements so I guess she had the wrong name too. Who knew!?
Trump on Tiffany Trump: "Her graduation got canceled because of covid. But I say if her name were something else they probably wouldn't have canceled it. They didn't like that she did so well in school. They weren't happy about it. I say they canceled your graduation b/c you were a great student"

Covering Jamal Khashoggi's murder was one of the most disturbing things I've worked on. Hearing Trump say he was "extremely controversial" and people "didn't like him" is chilling. Hard to take any other way than he thinks there is moral ambiguity in the murder of a journalist.

Negotiating my own health coverage is my worst nightmare but being locked in a room during one of these “speeches” is a close second.
Trump is ranting barely coherently to McDonald's franchise owners: "The one pilot said, 'skedaddle!' And that thing just turned on its side -- pppph. And it's so unbelievable. And that knocked out Iran nuclear capability."

It’s amazing that after 15 years, the GOP is FINALLY coalescing around a healthcare plan of sorts and it essentially amounts to “fuck it, you do it.”
Trump: "THE ONLY HEALTHCARE I'LL SUPPORT OR APPROVE IS SENDING MONEY DIRECTLY BACK TO THE PEOPLE W/ NOTHING GOING TO THE BIG, FAT, RICH INSURANCE COMPANIES, WHO HAVE RIPPED OFF AMERICA LONG ENOUGH. THE PEOPLE WILL BE ALLOWED TO NEGOTIATE & BUY THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, INSURANCE. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!"

Look, I know we're all sick of hearing "if this had happened with any other president ..." but it's absolutely true and absolutely can't be forgotten.
For some reason, this nation gives this idiotic spoiled brat a free pass from things that would destroy the administration of any other person.

When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

"taking jobs from Americans" really gives away the game. This guy just hates immigrants and thinks they don't belong here, and can be treated as sub-humans.
Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Do I have to start taking pictures at Frys (Kroger) of labels that say New Low Price - but are notably higher than THE WEEK BEFORE??? 🤬 “…almost not at all” my ass.
Kevin Hassett lies shamelessly: "The price of groceries has gone up almost not at all this year."

Monsters. I pray for karma every day.
Video of a daycare raid in Chicago went viral last week, showing armed federal agents dragging a teacher from Rayito de Sol Spanish Immersion Early Learning Center as children watched in terror.
To the families at the daycare, the scene was a show of force that shattered their sense of safety.

Drip, drip, drip. It’s past time for the Speaker of the House and Republicans in Congress to do the right thing and release the Epstein files to the American people. Anything less than full disclosure is just part of the coverup.

Folks, the reporting is that Trump is making PERSONAL CALLS to Mace, MTG and others about the discharge petition. Would you be doing this if you had nothing to hide? Let's please all be serious here.

Few things cause me as much stress as dealing with insurance in any shape or form. This vague concept of a plan of his already sounds like my worst nightmare.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"
