[Jokes from Jan. 24, 2017] “The number one thing on Donald Trump’s mind right now is the election in November. He says that 3 million to 5 million illegal voters cost him the popular vote. There doesn’t seem to be any evidence to support this belief but that doesn’t matter.” – Jimmy Kimmel “President Trump […]

This image has been running around the innertubes ever since the election, equally popular on both liberal and conservative websites: I especially love the description, but I don’t know if they spelled “marshmallow” wrong on purpose. After all, I wouldn’t describe Trump as “mellow”. In case there is any doubt, Snopes says that it is […]

[Jokes from Jan. 23, 2017] “The Women’s March in Washington was on Saturday, and it had three times as many people as Trump’s inauguration. When he was told there were hundreds of thousands of women outside the White House, Trump said, ‘Wow, this Trump cologne REALLY WORKS.’” – Jimmy Fallon “Over the weekend, 750,000 protesters […]

I’m sure most people have heard about Trump’s first solo press conference on Thursday, but Seth Meyers has a good take on it: At what point does it become too painful for Trump supporters to hear what keeps coming out of his mouth. Or have they already stopped listening?

What’s worse? That Flynn discussed sanctions with the Russians and lied about it, or that Trump is now lying about what he knew about it? What I don’t understand is how incompetent do these people have to be? Flynn was freakin’ National Security Advisor, and before that was the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency […]

[Jokes from Jan. 19, 2017] “Tomorrow is the presidential inauguration. People from all across country will be there. But don’t worry if you can’t make it, because the president will be live tweeting the whole thing.” – Jimmy Fallon “Meteorologists are predicting that the weather for the inauguration tomorrow will be cold, damp, and dreary.

If you have ever wondered how people can support Donald Trump, when he lies constantly, then you have to watch this video from John Oliver: The problem is a combination of a propaganda-like appeal to emotions, reinforced by a fake news industry. Note that this kind of non-rational belief is not confined to conservatives. For […]

[Posted to Facebook by Dan Rather] Watergate is the biggest political scandal of my lifetime, until maybe now. It was the closest we came to a debilitating Constitutional crisis, until maybe now. On a 10 scale of armageddon for our form of government, I would put Watergate at a 9. This Russia scandal is currently […]

Maybe we should stop calling the holiday after Saint Valentine, and instead call it after Narcissus. © Tom Tomorrow According to Tom Tomorrow, all of these quotes are genuine, although he admits that the one in the top-right panel was paraphrased so it would fit (is this like what they do to movies when they […]

[Jokes from Jan. 17, 2017] “Donald Trump will be sworn in as president this Friday at 12 noon. That’s when the big hand is on the 12, and the little hand is on the Bible.” – Seth Meyers “We are just three days away from Donald Trump’s inauguration, and just two days away from all […]

The official Donald Trump inauguration poster, produced by the Library of Congress, has a spelling error in it: My only question is, did they do it on purpose? If not, did the Trump administration get rid of the regulation about proper spelling, or fire the bureaucrat in charge of it?

Unlike his boss, Vice President Mike Pence is an experienced politician. In fact, before becoming VP, Pence was the governor of Indiana. So we should be able to get some idea of what kind of president Pence might be, if (for some reason) Donald Trump stops being the president. Which is why this report from […]

Melissa McCarthy again pokes fun at White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer. And Kate McKinnon adds an incomprehensible Jeff Sessions. This SNL parody just keeps getting better. I think Donald Trump will be forced to get rid of Spicer just to stop this. Either way, we win. Rumors are that one potential candidate has already […]

[Jokes from Jan. 16, 2017] “I saw that Donald Trump himself is selling inauguration sweatshirts for $79. I know it sounds expensive for a sweatshirt, but just imagine how much they would have cost if they were made in America.” – Jimmy Fallon “Dozens of Democratic members of Congress are boycotting Donald Trump’s inauguration. Which […]
