They’re going to ask politely for a vote in Congress to give Trump permission to be fascist. And when the request for the vote is ignored, they’re going to diligently line up to support the next NDAA funding measure that made this criminal act possible while shaking their heads to let you know they don’t like how it is being used.
Laws are threats made by the dominant socioeconomic-ethnic group in a given nation. It’s just the promise of violence that’s enacted and the police are basically an occupying army.
Every country becomes Argentina. Or maybe Texas
Dick Cheney made it an extra 15 years after his heart stopped beating.
Gore did not get to be president in 2001, therefore he lost
Thats going to be hard, and unnecessary, sell
That’s okay, because every major media company is now run by a conglomerate of Silicon Valley fascists.
The GOP wouldn’t be able to claim they’ve “cleaned house” without pinning all the problems on the last one in charge
Democrats will win a majority in 2026 and immediately get the blame for the nosediving economy in 2027
I am excited by an administration that is the exception to the rule. We have a County Judge down in Houston who is a similar exception. After eight years in office during which she has been at war with the state nearly continuously, sued, harassed, slandered, and threatened with deportation, she’s done little to change Harris County in no small part thanks to opposition from within her own party.
A great politician, an amazing bureaucrat, a wonderful person, but entirely without the institutional support enjoyed by Corrupt-o-crats like Henry Cueller and John Whitmire.
as soon as trump dies, all republicans with “suddenly realize” that trump was as horrible as he actually is.
Nah. He’s to embedded in the bullshit machine. As soon as he dies, he’s going to be retconned as a Bush Neocon and enshrined alongside Calvin Coolidge and Ronnie Raygun.
All the problems will be laid at the feet of Barrack Hussein Obama, the fake cheater DEI President who stole both elections and destroyed the economy with Socialism.
The GOP will then take their victory lap for “coming out of the darkness and cleaning up Washington”.
They do this after every handover from a Dem administration. “We restored honor and integrity to the White House” was a Bush line, following his defeat of Al Gore in '00.
Meanwhile any living GOP person that had a hand in crafting or enabling trump and all his sins will walk away scot free.
They’ll walk right into the next administration. Steven Miller is with us for the rest of our lives. He’ll be running a Think Tank worth $100M+ by the time he’s 50.
Tankies incoming…
And Lebanon, which has been Freedom Bombed from both ends. And Sudan and Ethiopia currently enjoying the tender liberties of a UAE backed civil war.
I suppose you could claim Egypt backslid, but I doubt their handlers in Israel would agree.
Afghanistan is once again out of the heroin business, which has been great for Latin American cartel bosses but not much else
We cannot have another Biden or Ford type
We can and we will. That’s the only kind of politician Wall Street will bankroll for the job
Fix it loudly, fix it proudly.
“We put up a bill to fund a committee to begin discussing a name change, but the Republicans blocked it. There’s nothing we can do”
can’t wait for them to honor Trump’s passing by removing that shit.
Would be extremely funny if the name doesn’t get changed until twenty years after he’s out of office, because some string of cowardly dipshits don’t want to rock the boat while he’s still alive.
Maybe he can cover for the days Kid Rock is in rehab
The joke of American politics is that we really are rife with antisemites, but they’re very friendly with the Israeli lobbying coalition.
Why pro-Israel lobby group Aipac is backing election deniers and extremist Republicans
It’s become routine to see Zionists and White Nationalists holding hands together at CPAC, TurningPoint, and the Conservative Climate Leadership Conference.
Imagine a bunch of John Birchers doing photo ops with Xi Jinping and making ritual visits to Beijing, to praise Mao, because they think it will Own The Libs. That’s the state of American partisanship.
Israel Threatens NYC with Second 9/11 Over Antisemitic Mayor
“We won’t be so subtle this time, you Goy Fucks!” declares moderate party leader Bull DozeGaza.
When two teams show up to play a game of football and one team insists on picking up the ball and running with it, knocking over any opponent who gets in their way
Republicans out here playing full contact football. Democrats still insisting we’re playing bad mitton.
But don’t worry, I’m sure 2026 will break for the liberal party and we can go back to our Pelosi-Era Rules Based National Order. Funding the fascist policies of Red States and dismantling the public institutions in Blue States through the legal and respectable mechanisms of budget showdowns and J6 riots.
Not the game’s fault though
The system is what it does. If your opponent starts hitting you in the face with the controller until you give them your console and all the money in your wallet, screaming “that’s not how you play!” doesn’t win you any extra points.
That’s a bit unfair to House Reps, who do actually spend an enormous amount of their “off-time” running from plutocrat to plutocrat begging for more money to finance the next election cycle. Fundraising is the primary job of the average House Rep, with legislating coming well behind.

First Afghanistan, then Iraq, then Libya, then Syria, now Iran.
Freedom is sweeping across the Middle East.
Why would they? Trump is everything the GOP’s been asking for since Bush 43.
