The shitshow presidency continues unabated. I’m too angry, disappointed, and exasperated to write how I really feel about how utterly pathetic and feckless democratic “leadership” is beyond this point without getting suspended.

I have to agree with you at this point. The country is on fire and most of them seem totally clueless, as if it was business as usual.

We are not going to have free and fair elections. Everyone in the administration is in on it and that’s why fucking Republicans don’t care! The streets of Minnesota are a war zone and the police are protecting ICE. No one is coming to save us. I’ve been at the torches and pitchforks phase months ago. The nazis in Minnesota need to be publicly hung. The orange fuck stick id about to invoke the insurrection act. It’s time that people stop fucking going about life like everything is fucking normal !!!!!! Stop worrying about your job, your possessions because they’re useless if your children have no future. Wake the fuck up!! I’m tired of this shit day in and day out. Renee Good is dead and 2 men were shot in Minnesota last night and ICE is lying again. Enough is enough.

Oh. Mah. Gawd. It's getting to the point where there is nothing more to say... I honestly don't see any other way this shit is going to end than in massive bloodshed. ICEholes will open fire like the Palace Guard in St. Petersburg in 1917 -- maybe with the same eventual results of the people overtaking the government, but not without even more tragic loss of lives.

That said, we have to take to the streets. NATIONAL WALK OUT on JANUARY 20 at 2:00PM your local time. Check here for your local organizers:

Project much, Kellyann?

Does Ms. Rollins survive on $3 per meal?

Minnesota resident speaking out here: most of us are beyond the pissant stage, Ms Kellyann. Some of us are getting a bit rageful, in fact. Wielding snow shovels and broom handles! As reported by Mr. Steven Cheung of the WH... BEWARE we are dangerous with those snow shovels.

There are a lot of hunters in Minnesota. Just sayin'.

So much of today’s notes are of conservative asshats telling us exactly how little the Regime thinks of Americans. One says, you’re good- eat one piece of chicken and one stalk of broccoli. Kellyann Conway, who last ate a meal in 2015, calls a guy a pissant. That’s EXACTLY what they think of us all.

The fragile ICE dude complaining about a gratis golden shower should be grateful it wasn’t a more harmful substance. Stop whining, tough guy!

Is anyone else concerned about those idiots slipping and falling on the ice while holding an automatic weapon? I'm almost positive they know nothing about the safety.

I'm ready to see all of these fucks die in prison. Enough of the bullshit.

Speaking with a woman yesterday (I would bet my money a trump supporter) who is married to a Mexican man and several of his family members live near her. This is a very red town so I have seen city police assisting ICE. She was aware enough to caution them about carrying ID but had no idea what is going on and that ICE doesn't give a damn if they have legal work visas. "I never watch news". Had no idea about Renee, what is going on in MN, etc. Probably unaware of Charlotte in her own back yard. She did listen to us and then said "Is it me or is Trump2 a lot worse than Trump1". Welcome to the doorstep of reality, ma'am. Step right in. Seriously. I assured her those work visas mean nothing to ICE if they will shoot a white mom of 3 in the face for simply existing.

People in this country are so happily ignorant and apathetic and they are going to get a lot of us killed. It's no wonder we are in such a mess. So if trump support is tanking as much as polls show, imagine if more Americans actually cared to know wtf is going on in their country.

I'll fill a glass with her tears when ICE takes her husband and family. If they don't shoot her first.

LiseAnn 🇨🇦's avatar

Yep, happily ignorant indeed. Proof? He's still at about 38%, 40% approval!! 😡😡 The country is on fire, but they don't watch the news, or they watch Fox!. 😡😡😡 They are totally clueless! That makes my blood boil. 😡😡

Robot Bender's avatar

In other news, Kelly Kellyanne Conway still thinks she's relevant. 🙄

Y’all bring the pitchforks and I’ll gladly bring the flaming torches 🔥🔥

I'm really interested to hear more about Sasha Riley. Would think his info would be vetted by now. ALL media is silent on him.

Waltz- call in the National Guard. Protect your citizens from MAGA thugs.

Note eight: So was anything different when the clown was asleep, or does he have nothing to do with running the government anyway?

Note 10: I still don't get how more than 10 people in this country would possibly vote for the clown. 24%-36% of people polled? This is some deeply fucked up voting public.

Note 15: If we were a real country with a real government, we'd be sending the Ukraine a lot more than "love and support" ("thoughts and prayers").

Note 19: Hey! That guy wasn't wearing a mask! Isn't he worried?

"Chickenshits": Don't criticize them. Daddy must have called them, and they're in big trouble if they don't stop thinking of themselves as independent people. My guess is early curfew or withheld allowance.

"Stand with Minnesota": The clown threatened to send in the military? He already sent in the military. It's at active war against defenseless Minnesotans.

"Today's clips," paragraph two: Moskowitz shows a lot of good stuff. Until he mindlessly backs Israel.

"Today's clips," paragraph four: They can't make up their minds. Assassinate Venezuelan fishermen on the pretense that they're hauling drugs, pretend to ramp up a war against drugs, even though we have always lost that war, pardon a very major drug kingpin, withhold money for substance abuse and mental health treatment, reinstate that money. Oh, I get it: they're actually totally high and can't begin to think straight.

"Today's clips," paragraph six: Yup, there's no one more unAmerican than Americans.

A valuable resource, promote "Americans First" not "America First" & Hochul’s campaign combines affordability and Trump's overreach, etc..

• Trump Action Tracker documents the actions, statements, and plans of President Trump and his administration that echo those of authoritarian regimes and may pose a threat to American democracy. The Tracker began in January 2025. (More about it). Over 2,000 actions are categorized, with a searchable database. A tremendous resource.

======================================

• Hochul’s new agenda blends Trump fighting with affordability - POLITICO. So promoting affordability and at the same time opposing Trump’s overreach and agenda on several issues.

=========================================

• We don’t need to put “America First” by intervening and trying to assert our power around the world. That doesn’t help our people’s everyday lives and more than half of U.S. adults believe President Trump has “gone too far” in using the U.S. military to intervene in other countries. Say, instead, that Democrats want to put “Americans first” by looking out for their interests in health care, energy needs, housing, food, and so on.

============================================

• Of course, Trump’s prosecuting of Powell via the “Department of Injustice” is no more than another abuse of power.

• Political Wire: “Republicans Block Effort to Check Trump’s War Powers” So vote for a Democratic Congress

Need to check Trump’s overreach in his ICE deployment, with polls dramatically against ICE. Vote Democrat.

===========================================================

• From Axios: President Trump is reaching deeper than ever into the gears of the U.S. economy, attempting to harness state power to directly shape prices, markets, interest rates and corporate behavior, Axios' Zachary Basu writes. The result: institutional stability and capitalist norms — like so much else in the Trump era — are increasingly subordinate to raw presidential power.

=============================================

• Trump wants to control the narrative of the 250th anniversary of our country’s founding. He, of course, will relish in it with various ceremonies and activities tying himself to American ideals (as he views them) and our founding, and likely trying to utilize in some way to help in the midterms.

Hopefully he will not try to subvert “The U.S. Semi quincentennial Commission (that) was established by Congress in 2016 to plan and orchestrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Appointed by the House and Senate leadership of both parties, the nonpartisan Commission is composed of 16 private citizens, 4 U.S. Representatives and 4 Senators, as well as 12 Ex Officio members from all three branches of the federal government and its independent agencies.” https://america250.org.

Counteract that with a campaign of messages, activities, videos, etc. showing how Democrats are trying to live out the ideals of the beginning of our nation. Consider whether to note where Trump and Republicans have defiled it. Though not a part of the 1776 founding, the Constitution/Bill of Rights (still considered a part of our country’s foundation) is where Trump has been most egregious and could be hammered if deemed relevant to our founding. I assume a connection to the anniversary can be made.

We aren't going to get to vote in midterms

I would seriously think about something better than torches and pitchforks against ICE 🤔
