Obama has remained fairly silent for a long while, and I don’t blame him for that. But I am very happy that he decided that it was finally time to break that silence, and give a talk. An excellent talk. It is less than 20 minutes long (assuming that you jump to minute 1:25), and […]
Pretty much every economist is pointing out that Trump’s tariffs will at least cause a deep recession, and at worst might tank the entire world economy. But here on Political Irony, we are just giddy that both SNL and Tom Tomorrow agree. We may be doomed, but at least we might go down laughing. Well, […]
I went to a Hands-Off protest yesterday at a relatively small town near where I live, and I was impressed by quite a few things. I couldn’t count, but it looked to me like there were at least 2,000 protesters there (way more than I expected!). There were whole families there, and people of all […]
It died on April 3rd. This is an article from The Bulwark. If you haven’t heard of it, they are mainly a group of former Republicans who are trying to help save us from Trump. Rather than post the whole article, here is a link to it. Read it. I agree with pretty much everything […]
Shortened on the internet to FAFO, this used to be described as “You made your bed, now lie in it”. Unfortunately, this stupidity didn’t just harm people who voted for Donald Trump, it screws everyone: people who voted against him, and even people in countries around the world. The only people who benefit are basically […]
Senator Jeff Merkley explains how Donald Trump looks, talks, and acts like a Russian asset. And as they say, if you look like a duck, talk like a duck, and act like a duck, then you are a duck. I’m sure you can think of other things that point toward Trump being a Russian asset, […]
French Senator Claude Malhuret, in a short 8-minute speech, lays out the crimes of Trump and Putin, and what should be done to fix it. This should be watched by every American. Yes, it is in French, but it has (large, easy to read) subtitles. As one comment said, “this is a speech that will […]
Well, there isn’t much good news now that Trump is president again, but there is one thing that I would count as a “silver lining”. Jon Stewart is back. Really back. Last night, Stewart gave his “longest Daily Show monologue, ever!“ It is pure Jon Stewart, both hilarious and scary in just the right measures. […]
I don’t agree with some things Bernie Sanders says, but I agree with everything he says in this video, and I’m really glad he is speaking out like this.
I wanted to change “Hail” to “Jail”. But that would just be wishful thinking, as TFG got off with no jail time, no probation, and not even a fine. However, he is now – and forever will be – a convicted felon (if it makes you feel any better, he is a convicted felon 34 […]
MAGA types seem to only care if they can cause liberals to lose. Ironically, they don’t seem to notice that this will also make them lose even more than the liberals do! Currently, Red states get more government handouts than Blue states. If Trump cuts those handouts, it will hurt more Republicans than Democrats. Another […]
According to The Washington Post, women in the US are taking matters into their own hands. They are looking into a movement in South Korea called 4B. “For some women in the United States, the election on Tuesday was a referendum on women’s rights, with reproductive freedoms hanging in the balance. So with Donald Trump — who […]
If you are planning to spend election day just waiting for results, well, you will probably be waiting for a long time. But here is something that might just make you feel good about America, and ironically, it is from a gay man. It is just under an hour long, so it will stop you […]
I have a soft spot in my heart for Bernie Sanders, even though I often disagree with some of his desired policies. Here’s a video from today that I totally agree with, and also shows why he has a place in my heart.
