Iowa had a great song for us. I see hope. The way I see it, the invasion of one state by another is a call to state Governors to mobilize their National Guards to resist UNLAWFUL assault. Selective persecution by Trump of Blue states divides this nation. Also, the gerrymander fight is on. There is a new playbook. The old rules have been struck down by the Supreme Court. We need to change the gears here as fast as possible for deadly PREEMPTIVE strikes. Newsom has moved out on this already. Who is next? Hochul. Where are you? REVISE your Constitution. Pritzker. What are you doing?

I asked about Gov. Pritzker activating the Guard yesterday and people said that would be worse than tRump's goons. I say activating them to protect the state would be a proactively positive thing.

I love Pritzker. He called the orange con man out on national television the other day. He’s got balls!

We need preemptive strikes. You are right.

The Funny: The Banksy-ish art of the sandwich pitcher, convo with Taylor and Travis.

The Hope: Democrat Catelin Drey

The Gross: Circle jerk cabinet meeting. WTAF.

The Dems should be renamed The Crickets

The stealing of our data is a feature, not a bug. I knew it when they first invaded the Treasury Dept - I saw the reports that doge attached a server to the system. The only reason that would do that is to take data from it. That was the plan - to expose our data so they could target us. I guess we better start thinking of alternate names when we need to re-establish our identities.

FYI, the Fox news host John Roberts is not the same scumbag as the supine court justice John Roberts.

I read Morning Shots, where this morning they commented on that cabinet meeting. A direct quote from their post: Retired Gen. Ben Hodges noted, “in the Army we called this Butt-snorkeling.”

Iowa adds to my hope that there are more rational and America-loving people than we realize as we get bombarded by the white nationalistic moronic propaganda. Thank you guys for keeping the cussing to lift my spirits!

Yup. Funny and all correct, as usual.

"What the fuck was that?": It's such a crazy circus that you almost forget to note that Donnie doesn't shut this down, because who on earth would not be humiliated by this, and feel all the totally embarrassing patronizing nonsense? Instead, he nods in agreement. He's very far from reality.

"Today's clips," paragraph two: I saw a video of their encounter, and frankly, it's still unclear to me what's wrong with Moore, and why he gave Donnie the time of day, and that seemingly genuinely respectful and enthusiastic greeting and big smile.

"Today's clips," paragraph three: Oh, so Rogan woke up on that side of the bed today.

"Today's clips," paragraph four: The world must be a very terrible place if someone like Garcia thinks of this toxic dump as a place to seek asylum.

Re: Note 8 Yes, Dems need to be talking, yelling even about this takeover of American cities. Sick of the crickets from all but a few Dems.

Note 13: Any chance of Roberts opening up a seat on the SCOTUS? Although with the delusional dimwit a vacancy would be filled with another unqualified jerk.

Note 3: Only the best and brightest. Am I right?!?

Note 4: Imagine if Joe Biden...

Note 5: At least they're not arresting innocent citizens and doing this will keep them from being dragged in front of a tribunal at a later date.

Note 6: Shitshow commencing in 3... 2... 1...

Note 16: Why the fuck is Charlie Kirk still getting oxygen?

Note 17: Morons gonna Moron.

#FDJT and the golden escalator that his disgusting orange self rode down on. Trump is now on his way down again, as we see by deep red state wins by Dems since the felon took office in January. And, Pedo-in-Chief Trump will continue to go down, down, down ....all the way to HELL, where his best friend Jefffey Epstein will waiting to greet him. 🔥 🔥 🔥 👍

Note two: Yeah, that WAS good. I hope I can remember how I found my way there!

.....

Note three: All of our shit's out there already anyway. Who HASN'T received a notice that someone you do business with, or your doctor etc, have been hacked and now your info is on the dark web? I have the tiniest footprint out there and I still got the notice.

.....

Note four: Trump has hated Seth Meyers for fifteen years, AT LEAST, since this spectacular reaming Trump got at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2011.:

.....

Note six: I heard that veterans were going to stage a sit-in at Union Station through at least Labor Day or until the military is out of DC.

.....

Note eight: All you need to know about the poll numbers is that Donald Trump sucks, most of the people of the US hate him and his fascist party's policies, and his name is all over the Epstein Files.

.....

Note twelve: I'll bet it was mostly a publicity stunt; look at all the money they're not going to spend on new signs and paper media, redoing the interiors of all of their restaurants, and they keep their clientele. I can't imagine droves of new people going there because of their proposed changes anymore than I can imagine droves of new customers saying "Oh look, Olive Garden changed their logo; I'll bet their food's great now! LET'S EVERYBODY GO! At least we know where the Crackers are.

.....

Note thirteen: HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE! That'll fix him RIGHT up!

.....

Note fifteen: Collins obviously had her hearing aids turned off.

.....

Note seventeen: Bummer. Too bad. So sad.

.....

Note eighteen: Freedom Caucus, Tea Party, the Republican Party, the American Nazi Party. What's in a name? A banana is a banana is a banana is a banana.

.....

Note nineteen: OF COURSE they couldn't get an indictment. He just threw that sandwich at him. It's not like he gave it to him to eat. THE SANDWICH GUY BEATS THE WRAP!

.....

Iowa and Today's Clips: YAY IOWA. Fuck Trump. Yay Wes Moore. Yay Joe Rogan? WTF? And I really wish that those assholes would finally leave Kilmar Abrego Garcia alone.

So I’m taking Amtrak into DC on Friday. With this idiot taking over, should I brace for a fucking train wreck ??? All those with Dem reps, you better call them and make sure that fucking Schumer doesn’t cave in the budget bill coming up like he did with the bullshit bill.
