It’s Monday. There are 491 days until the midterm elections. A Senate Republican cries uncle, saying goodbye to a victim of Trump’s war against decency and a bill that kills.
The Big Billionaire Bullshit Bailout Bill...feels like its going to pass, despite the polls, protests, and intense pressure. If for only one reason: there's just enough Republicans that just don't give a fuck about America and everything that truly made it great. They keep proving that over and over again. Look at who already caved - Murkowski (R-Very Scared) and Collins (Very Concerned), and then look at the rest that only put fascism and their cult leader first.
Murkowski(R- very CHICKENSHIT) and Collins (R- very chickenshit but also just dumb a f)
I'm not even sure any of em put fascism and cult leader first; who they put first is their own greedyass selves, hanging onto power and FREE, excellent health care. "I've got mine, fuk you"- the repuglikkkan national anthem.
They aren't Christians in any way, shape or form. They are advocates for the devil. For them to even mutter that they are Christians is utterly insane. Christians don't act the way they act, Christians are about the good of people - all people and don't determine who should have and those that shouldn't have. They don't shout out lies with every breath. Christians are humble not loud mouths that are greedy. They do not even know the definition of being a Christian. As a Christian, I resent that they are claiming to be one. Let one of them place their hand on a Bible and place an oath to be a Christian, to help mankind, to do things to make it better for those in need. To share what they have with those less fortunate and to do the job that they were elected to do, not the dirty job of their president.
Unbelievable. The party that shamed us as tax and spend socialists now at the precipice of the largest tax (the poor) and spend boondoggle in United States history. Our additional 30$ billion in tax dollars will be used to kidnap people from their jobs and disappear them. If this was a dystopian novel, no one would read it. I did call and write both Senators - no ICE.
We hear the right words from these so called Christians. We heard it before. Over and over when will we hear people say others will be accepted only if we accept that end times are coming, and we are at the end with tRUMP defending us like a guard dog as we are sheep be lead to slaughter and there is nothing we can do about it. They do not know GOD, only use it as a weapon. Its time for love and not hate, but its all they know being deceived followers of the antichrist tRUMP/Putin..
I always appreciate your reporting and perspective. There is truth in humor along with the insanity of what is happening to our country today. Thank you for helping us to laugh through heartbroken tears.
Adam. Just, THANK YOU, for putting out the truth about all the sick and sad news resulting from Trump. I hope some MAGA are starting to realize what crap they voted for.
Are you aware that Christians United for Israel, a white supremacist, antisemitic, antimuslim, homophobic, sexist, racist cult with 11 million members in the US is meeting in DC today and tomorrow? Interfaith Action for Palestine is protesting in DC right now...and will continue until tomorrow. They continue to lobby congress for more military aid for Israel so they can start a war that will lead to Armageddon.
Your link stated the followinga; "... word is associated with periods of real violence against Jews, and because there are random acts of violence being carried out against Jews worldwide today, many Jews do associate the phrase with terror." Additionally, in Israel, the intifada meant murdering people by bombing cafes, bus stations, etc. When asked to repudiate, globalize the intifada, he did not. Below is a link:
In my opinion, the political pendulum has swung, as it was clear it would in 2016 with the election of you know who. I cannot and will not support the extremists on either side.
Note: You're partially misunderstanding something about Donnie's newest project. You, and Murphy, are focused on the damage it will do, but you're mostly ignoring the good news: people who have far more money than they could possibly spend will wind up with more money.
Note two: "President" Dumbshit on Mt Rushmore. I knew there was such a thing as Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
Note four: What on earth do medical people know about public health that Mikey Little Johnson doesn't know?
Note six: What a dilemma. Either Fox News or the WaPo is lying. Although with Jeff off on his excursion, maybe there's no one to demand the WaPo people lie.
Note seven: You missed it again. OK, we're done with the Fourth of July (which has nothing to do with Donnie). But we're celebrating King Donnie's magnificent birthday. Either a wash, or we're better than ever, no?
Note eight: THIS is what makes America great: inventing some reason to deport Garcia after all. In the '40s, a then California Governor warned against limiting immigration, because of the essential value of immigrants. In very recent years, Alabama blocked anyone who didn't have adequate papers. Then had to rescind the rule once the agricultural industry crashed, because there was no one to operate it. But this time, we've got it down to a...science. (Oh, sorry, we don't use that word any more.)
Note 10: Oh, come on. We shit all over David Hogg for the same kind of enthusiasm and ambition for American government. Why can't we shit all over Mamdani, too?
Note 11: You were careless again. Roberts very specifically said judges and justices should not be endangered for doing their jobs. And he was right. What he omitted was that they should do their jobs.
Note 15: No, you're not reading the same book.
"'Bye, Thom:" I wonder how many of the people behind that bill Thom voted to confirm.
"Rest in power:" Aren't you outraged? That's where the outrage is. Feel better?
"Killer bill:" If you can't imagine anything worse than the House version, then you don't have a good enough imagination. And as far as thinking it's hard to describe how bad this is, you just described it. You're getting better.
"Today's clips," paragraph two: Yeah, I agree with Bibi. This is just not a convenient time. He checked first with Cheney and W, who told him to get himself knee deep in a meaningless war, and the public would then let you stay in office.
"Today's clips," paragraph three: You're being totally unfair to Gillibrand. She admitted she did "not have all the data and information," and that she "misspoke." She admitted she had no idea what she was doing, which is sort of like apologizing. You should stop criticizing. Now that she, and Gillen, do have all the data and information, I think you'll see that they won't misspeak any more, and they're extremely likely to be strong Mamdani supporters.
"Today's clips," paragraph four: Well, it appears Donnie is the second best deal-maker in the world.
At this point, my attitude is let them pass this abomination and live with the consequences. Will it hurt a ton of people? Yes. But maybe that’s what is needed to wake the MAGA morons up …
Sam and Adam. You wrote,"We’ve seen a lot of nasty shit aimed at Zohran Mamdani, and unfortunately a lot it has come from our own party. " I am a democrat and Jew. I have seen a lot of nasty shit come out of Mamdani's mouth when it comes to Jews and Israel. He scares me as much as the far right. Both ends are filled with ideologues and we know what happens once they get control. Perhaps, you could criticize some of Mamdani's Jewish shit.
Additionally, you guys are upset about Islamophobic attacks against Zohran Mamdani. What about his anti-semitic attacks? Let's pay attention to those as well.
Hi Marilyn, we’ve seen Mr. Mamdani accused of saying a lot of things he did not say. We also figured that neither Brad Lander nor Gerry Nadler would endorse an antisemite. We abhor and have repeatedly condemned antisemitism. We will do the same when we see Islamophobia.
Maybe they believe him when he says he wants to keep all New Yorkers safe. Maybe they don’t rush to believe attacks from people with shitty motives. Maybe they think it’s racist and Islamophobic to force someone to denounce something they have never said. I am personally excited to see another brilliant young communicator in our party who also knows how to win. We could use more of those.
Please specify what "nasty shit" has come out of Mamdani's mouth. I read several sites and could not find anything. I am not trolling, I'm asking what he has said. Could you supply links? This is an essay I read that seemed pretty even handed:https://forward.com/opinion/732094/zohran-mamdani-antisemitism-intifada-meaning/
I love Abby Phillip too - it makes me sad that I can no longer watch her because she continues to have that smug SOB Scott Jennings on her show.
Jennings is a vile pile of excrement to be sure.
And he became empowered after trumpy dumpy won in 2024.
Jennings is a sub-normal intellect caveman.
You had me at: "Be advised: This newsletter uses profanity. So does your mama." LOL
That is all. Brain is on overload with disbelief of the vile that permeates The White House of Lies.
Adam & Sam: you are my guys. Sexy Patriots: You are my people. Love to all.
Kirsten Gillibrand is the twatwaffle who ousted Al Franken over a goddamn JOKE. She's a disgrace and a "see you next Tuesday" kind of person.
She's a Judas for sure.

JFC! and these are the morons in power that will give it to them, all based on superstitious nonsense.

Thank you, Sam. I cannot explain why Jewish people support him, just as I can't understand why Jewish people support Trump. Very perplexing.
Maybe they believe him when he says he wants to keep all New Yorkers safe. Maybe they don’t rush to believe attacks from people with shitty motives. Maybe they think it’s racist and Islamophobic to force someone to denounce something they have never said.

Thank you
Read Jennifer L. Pozner on fb, etc., if you can't or won't understand why some Jewish New Yorkers support Mamdani.
