Trump’s unconstitutional war was not authorized by Congress, was started without a plan or an exit strategy, and has achieved none of the contradictory objectives used to justify it.
Oh, and it cost taxpayers at least $40 billion.

When The Drumpführer said, "When oil prices go up, we make a lot of money," THIS is what he meant: His war is a green light for his big-oil cronies—especially Saudi Arabia—to gouge citizens and businesses the world over. Billionaires are getting what they paid for in electing this miserable cretin.
Xie goes to Mar a Lago *once* and glad-hands with Trump, and Trump hands China the renewables market and a green light to invade Taiwan and take the global semiconductor market. While a GOP Congress bickers with itself, Trump is handing the future global economy over to China. America First, anyone?
A Silicon Valley career in miniature.

So apropos he's saying this from what is LITERALLY a GOLDEN PODIUM!
A wonderfully succinct description of the personality cult known as MAGA. #NoKings
@whitehouse.senate.gov on the Senate floor, March 5, 2026: “‘Hoax’ is the word Donald Trump uses for things that are true.” Well worth watching all 47 minutes of this eye-opening speech.
Look what the Iranians gave ti Donald Trump! It's a MAJOR AWARD!
Democrats: "America is a racist nation."
Also Democrats: "Race shouldn't matter to voters."
🤔
Or…Trump could just reopen TSA! Democrats have put legislation on the floor a half dozen times to reopen TSA and Republicans block it every time.
And…there it is.
And why would he think anything else? He might as well be talking about Mike Johnson's and John Thune's tongues. "I can make them lick my balls. I can make them lick my asshole. I can do anything I want with them."
Remember when Joe Biden said "consumers [were] the last of our concerns," and nobody batted an eye? Yeah...
You've been swindled, America. Wake up and vote this crap out in November.
Hopefully my new book will change all this, but this is perhaps the one upside to not getting any traction with your debut: I can safely consider *any* outreach from randos to be a scam. With bitterness that this is all AI has brought me, I instantly delete them unread.

If you're on the enshittification bandwagon, this will give you a laugh. If you're not, this just might get you on board.

If Haiti doesn't conquer the USA as soon as they can, they have no sense of self-preservation.
Who's this "we," motherfucker? Oh yeah—just like your stupid tariffs—you and your billionaire cronies, and a hardy "eat shit" to the rest of us.

Trump's "Welcome to America! We're going to kill you now!" is perhaps the clearest encapsulation of his singlehanded destruction of our standing in the world.

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.
If you've read STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS or any book by any author, please leave a kind review somewhere in a proper review receptacle. Leaving these reviews helps the book, helps the bookish ecosystem, and also we are sustained by them as we sit in the corner and greedily gnaw on them like squirrels.
Barely had a "construction." Ten years old, looked around my Carholic school, "hell?" "original sin?" "virgin birth?" "ascension?" Uh, no.
These stupid motherfuckers. All this ill-considered (as if "consider" is a word you can use with these clowns) scorched earth approach (ditto "approach") is doing is guaranteeing that the moderates and liberals in Iran will hate America as much as the hardliners do. #trumpisafuckingidiot
Being a writer with a day job is often excruciating. It's a minor miracle books ever get done.
From SJC, same...hope you didn't go through Dallas. 😒
