This image is a political illustration from the German newspaper Die Zeit depicting a confrontation between a Pope and a US President.
The artwork is titled "Pope Leo XIV" and portrays a tension-filled scene between the two figures.
What the actual fuck….
Colbert: Trump “says we’ve already won, so technically this is the fog of peace.”
Bad enough Trump appointees are actively hiding evidence against him. Now those puppets—handpicked for fealty to Trump over law, constitution, precedent—are “negotiating” to hand him billions to settle a corrupt claim, even though a trial would prove Trump was properly investigated for real crimes.
Hoping as hard as I can: "model forecasts Swalwell supporters migrating to Tom Steyer and...Katie Porter meaning support for those two...'growing to an extent that they could actually be...creating a greater chance of a Top Two general election with NO REPUBLICAN" www.sfchronicle.com/politics/joe...
Even after all this time I’m shocked by how vengeful & petty Trump is, by his sociopathic willingness to let children suffer
“Trump has abruptly canceled an $11 million contract with Catholic Charities to shelter & care for migrant children who enter the US alone” www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Using Swalwell to segue into both-parties false equivalence is absurd. Only one party has ever filled dozens of cabinet & WH positions with men who paid to abuse underage girls. Only one allows/requires/blackmails handpicked abusers to destroy our rights & institutions, protected by its puppet DOJ.
The Fed should imagine “the situation resolves itself somehow”? Even a perma-smiling sycophant won’t ask it to imagine *Trump* resolving the situation.
Old JesseLaGreca tweet reads, 'I swear to fucking GOD this "I won't vote for the lesser of 2 evils shit is like the best thing that ever happened to the greater evil'
I screen-grabbed this tweet from several years ago because it said it so well.
Ha ha! Be sure to read the comments.
(E.g: "Russian sci-fi: a team of scientists land on a medieval planet that grants wishes but also make you insane"
"It's four hours long, soul killing level depressing and also the greatest thing you have ever seen")
Trump, holding a cannon labelled "Trump Foreign Policy," has created a big hole in an Oval Office wall. Beside him, a man in a suit says, "Now what?" and Trump replies, "Now draw a target around it."
Toles' cartoon from 2017 is even more true today.
April 1945: In the final days of World War II, the Führer obsesses over absurdly large monuments for his reimagined Berlin, focusing on an idealized future rather than the reality of his collapsing Reich.

⚠️Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva made an unplanned Oversight Committee visit to an #ICE detention center in Mesa, AZ. She describes horrific conditions.

Trump's early evening Truth Social post. It reads like transcribed tape recorder evidence in a sanity hearing.
The hard work of interrogating Hillary Clinton, who is not in the files, apparently exhausted the House Oversight Committee.
Yes to all of that! Every writer has friends who write in other genres, and every reader has friends who read other genres. It comes across as hoity-toity, at best, when someone says, "Oh, I don't read that stuff."
How do you say "Streisand Effect" in Slovenian?
A cabinet member is subpoenaed to testify under oath, but POTUS wants to hide his & her federal crimes. So all he has to do is fire her in the days (hours?) before she'd testify?
Bondi & Trump will get away with it because the only principle guiding this administration, congress, SCOTUS is IOKIYAR.
BREAKING: DOJ investigating Iran for Mortgage Fraud.
The more I think about the 70,000 ICE incarcerated without due process the more I think we are underreacting. People are literally trapped inside for profit prisons. We need to do something.
Trump thinks CNN is spineless enough to retract reporting on a statement from Iran that’s on the record & verified, that Fox reported on, too. Fox might pretend it didn’t, CNN might retract from bend-the-knee habit, but the rest of us aren’t all MAGA ignoramuses, so…bring on the Streisand effect.
The countdown begins: How many days can Trump stand not being the world's center of attention? There'll be a new scary ultimatum from him then.
