Oil prices are climbing Monday following the latest rise of tensions between the United States and Iran, but the moves are more modest than they were earlier in the war. U.S. stocks, meanwhile, are giving back a bit of their record-breaking rally. https://to.pbs.org/3QwP7IT

Senator Jon Ossoff neatly breaks down political corruption in America — and how Trump’s “Mar-a-Lago mafia” has exploited it.
Every single Democrat should be saying this.
"All the best people..."
Liberal men aren't attractive - Katie Miller, wife of nosferatu Stephen Miller
She’s literally married to a Nazi vampire.
The most morally corrupt DOJ in US history.
This is a batshit crazy post.
We’ve also gone from:
- Vance is going
- no he’s not
- yes he is
In a period of 3 hours. Incoherent psychobabble.
Iran believes (probably accurately) that the US is using negotiation as deception and planning for another round of attacks
Translation:
This deal is about to be exactly like the JCPOA, minus Obama’s signature
As Trump’s lies get more egregious (and repetitive) I have at least noticed fewer mouth-breathing bootlickers willing to defend him in my comments.
And the administration is leaking about how he’s hurting negotiations and how they’re keeping him on the sidelines.
I’ll call that progress.
He’s a complete moron.
He still hasn’t “won” Iran.
Someone give Pawpaw his meds and put him back to sleep.
it's Saturday, and it's time for "this week in stupid: April 18 edition" — Preznit Fuckwit stands his ground, Caitlyn Jenner comes around, and so much more...

Donny: [scrawls his fucked-up, klan-hood signature] “that’s a good one. oh, I wanted this one. you think Biden can do that? he can’t do that.” ‘that’s a good one’? my god, this narcissistic asshole is even in love with his own signature. he hoists us that document with the pride of a toddler who made it all the way to the potty without doing a boom-boom in his pants — which, by the way, is an accomplishment Preznit Fuckwit can’t manage. Donny, you tiny and damaged homunculus, give it a fucking rest already. nobody in the world gives one shit about your infantile obsession with Joe Biden, aside from the sycophants and toadies who are paid to bark and clap like trained seals when the president makes a funny. remember the Easter Egg Roll earlier this month? Donny pulled the same tired shit, blithering incoherently to a bunch of children about Joe Biden’s autopen, as if even one of those kiddies had the remotest idea what the fuck he was whining about.
Donny Dipshit brags (again!) that his signature is better than Joe Biden's (who even cares?), and Krazee-Eyes Kash passes out drunk in his office. it's all in today's very strong post, the likes of which few thought possible. thank you for your attention to this matter. link is here: bit.ly/4mMkjA8
so, who’s the most shitfaced member of the Donnyverse? you could be forgiven for assuming it’s Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand, the champagne-guzzling dunk-tank clown who grew up to be Donny’s Secretary of Death. after all, ‘piss-drunk’ is right there in his name. and sure, in the running would be US Attorney Boxwine, famous for regularly showing up for her on-air Fox News gig as a word-slurring, four-sheets-to-the-wind mess.
who's most shitfaced in the Donnyverse? no, it's not Pete Kegstand — and it's not Jeanine Boxwine. their antics can't compete with the drunk-as-a-skunk antics that Kash Patel gets up to. thank you for your attention to my sober look at the most inebriated cabinet ever. link is here: bit.ly/4mMkjA8
here's today's post: "who’s the falling-down drunkest sewer clown of them all?"
Kash, Kash, he's our man — if he can't chug it, no one can!

here's today's post: "a deranged Preznit Fuckwit screams at aides for hours — and ends up banned from the bunker."

here’s a perfectly normal thing that happened with our perfectly normal president. recently, Donny was acting so erratically while military leaders were planning a rescue operation in Iran, that big strong aides with tears in their eyes had to go up to him and say, ‘sir! sir! why don’t you go play in traffic?’
last week, Donny was so out of control that his handlers had to hustle him out of the room for fear that he would fuck up a military rescue operation, because he wouldn't stop screaming at everyone. perfectly normal stuff, and I mock the shit out of it in my latest post. link is here: bit.ly/4cSLXYK
as unlikely as it may seem, somehow the Shitwit Brigade of Witkoff, Kushner and Couchfuck McGee were actually making headway — but then Preznit Fuckwit started posting once again about how he was going to bomb the shit out of Iran if they didn’t dance to his tune, at which point the Iranian negotiating team was all ‘why the fuck are we even talking to you?’
so, Donny's ace team of parking lot negotiators were actually close to a deal with Iran, when Donny blew it all up by tweeting infantile threats. awesome job, you fucking idiot. take a victory lap. I mock all that shit in today's post. thank you for your attention to it. link is here: bit.ly/3QkGa5v
all of this would be hilarious if it were happening in some small, powerless third world banana republic, where some tinpot’s disastrous decisions would have no effect beyond its own borders — but this is the United Goddamned States of America. everything we do affects the whole planet. all it took were the reckless actions of one moron to destabilize the entire world’s economy. how is that even allowed to be a thing? ‘what if the leader of a country were a fucking moron?’ is a great premise when it’s a movie like Duck Soup. not so much, however, when you have a real-life Donald J. Firefly in command of a nuclear arsenal.
it's insane that we live in a world where the impulsive actions of one thin-skinned imbecile can fuck shit up for the entire planet. big, strong readers with tears in their eyes are saying to me, "sir! sir! thank you for your angry post about it, sir!" link is here: bit.ly/3QkGa5v
The most fundamental disconnect between MAGA and everyone else is that we believe everything Trump does is about promoting, enriching and empowering himself because he’s a greedy malignant narcissist, and they believe he actually cares about other people and is primarily motivated by that.
I’m glad that the Mad King isn’t going to commit war crimes right now, while once again it is obvious this bumbling fool has no idea what he’s doing.
I’m sure Trump has put the US in a very strong bargaining position by issuing two ultimatums with hard deadlines only to back down both times after Iran called his bluff.
4-D chess from the cult leader.
It must be Tuesday.
Washington Examiner: Imagine it was someone other than President Donald Trump. Suppose a different leader were posting deranged rants in the small hours, insulting the spiritual leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, threatening entire civilizations with annihilation, and comparing himself to God. What would be the reaction?

On the pod, @gtconway.bsky.social lays out accountability agenda if Dems win House:
*Impeach Trump and top officials
*Criminal referrals to DOJ
*25th Amendment commission
*Fix Impoundment Act
*Codify DOJ independence
There's much more here. It's a good discussion:
newrepublic.com/article/2091...
"[Republicans] have overlooked [Trump's] mental disorders in the past— dismissed them. They've overlooked his depravity. They've overlooked the fact that he is an adjudicated sexual abuser. That he's a convicted criminal ... Because it served their purposes. It no longer serves their purposes."
Next time you’re in line at the Genius Bar ponder this sentence from DJT:
“When I got the call I said, wow, it’s Tim Apple (Cook!) calling, how big is that? I was very impressed with myself to have the head of Apple calling to “kiss my ass.” 🍏
Gee, I wonder why they had to pre-record Trump’s segment of ‘America Reads the Bible’? Could it possibly be his lifelong lack of reading skills?
Trump never works, there are no ‘policy meetings’ he snorts Adderall in the morning & watches TV, does a phoner w/supplicant press and then hands out a trophy in late afternoon. It’s adult day care for a drug addict. Weekends he golfs in Palm Beach.
