Donald Trump has declared himself to be the “law and order” president. This is such a joke. Trump has looted the environment, is guilty of obstruction of Congress, and has disbanded the police, who in this case are Inspectors General who are supposed to enforce the law in the executive branch of our federal government. […]
No, not Trump’s words. The group Republican Voters Against Trump has released a new ad using only the words of South Carolina Republican senator Lindsey Graham to attack Donald Trump and praise Joe Biden. The ad is being run in both South and North Carolina, and also on Fox News in DC (likely to poke […]
The tell-all book by former National Security Advisor John Bolton was supposed to have been released in March, but the White House has been working hard to delay it, claiming that it contains some (unspecified) classified information. So on Friday, the book’s publisher released some content from it. As expected, the book is very negative […]
Actually, no. These are actually things that Donald Trump, the master of racist dog whistles and champion of white supremacists, said at an event about race and policing, which took place in a largely white megachurch in an upper class part of Dallas. President Trump says America will be done with “bigotry and prejudice” before […]
Donald Trump treats pretty much everything as a PR problem. Why bother to actually, you know, govern? If there is bad news, he brands it as “fake news”, uses whataboutism, and attacks the source. If there is no good news, he just makes crap up and repeats it so much that at least some people […]
If you think things are bad now, remember that as Donald Trump gets more and more desperate to win the upcoming election, things will likely get more and more unpleasant. In fact, they are already getting worse. In the first week of June already, 14 states and Puerto Rico have recorded their highest-ever seven-day average […]
Can you guess what happened when the city of Camden NJ “defunded their police department” in 2013? If you’ve been listening to right-wing media, you might be thinking something like the following: You can’t just defund a police department! Who is going to protect you from criminals? Violent anarchists will take over! Dogs and cats […]
Forbes has an article showing photos and descriptions of the protests that are happening all over the world in response to the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Upwards of tens of thousands of people showed up for protests and marches in London, England; Paris, France; Brisbane, Australia; Rome, Italy; Berlin and Cologne, Germany; Tokyo, […]
Black firefighter Terrell Paci says that he was racially profiled by police and harassed earlier this week in Rhode Island. Paci was wearing his full uniform and sitting in a car outside his fire station with a friend, when two officers approached with guns drawn, shouting at him. The officer on the driver’s side started […]
I believe that this righteous rant from Kimberly Jones, titled “How Can We Win”, is the most powerful I have ever posted. Please watch it, and remember to go to the YouTube page and vote it up. Hearing her words, I am reminded of the American Revolution. Let me explain. Here are the major things […]
I can barely stand to hear Donald Trump speak for more than a minute anymore, but I can’t get enough of comedian Sarah Cooper lip syncing to audio of him. She has been doing it for a little while, but this newest one takes it to another level. It is clear that Trump knows nothing […]
Just like in Star Trek, imagine a mirror universe with all the same people in it, except everything else is different. This brilliant comic shows the insanity of things that we largely take for granted in our universe, by showing how unbelievable it would be to us (dear readers) if the mirror police treated CEOs […]
This isn’t really news, but Donald Trump continues to lie about just about everything. First, Trump’s former defense secretary Jim Mattis wrote an article highly critical of Trump, so of course our Tweeter-in-chief attacked back, claiming that he had fired Mattis (and disparaging him). But John Kelly, who was Trump’s White House chief of staff […]
This brilliant tweet riffs on Donald Trump’s attempts to downplay the coronavirus by misleadingly comparing it to the flu:
When Marine general James Mattis resigned as Donald Trump’s secretary of defense at the end of 2018, he promised that he would avoid criticizing the sitting president. But he added, “There is a period in which I owe my silence. It’s not eternal. It’s not going to be forever.” Yesterday was the day the dam […]
