MAGA is a lot of things, folks. It’s brain rot. It’s a cult. It’s utterly compromising and corrupting. But it also has a way of castrating formerly clear-eyed, convicted people who definitely know better.

Good looking fellas and importance of makeup is also how Ike closed out the 1958 midterms, if I recall

Trump: Jon Ossoff spent money on makeup—by the way, I wear very little and I do it myself. If you don’t put a little on, you look like a dead person. I don’t want to look that way.

As I said long ago, Trump has allied the United States with Russia. Horrifying.

Ron Schutz still can't say if he would've taken real actions when Donald Trump's ICE agents killed two Minnesotans. Ron Schutz stands with Trump, not Minnesota.

Unbelievable. At 9 PM on a Friday night, Trump just waived nearly every sanction the Lindsey Graham bill imposed on Russia. whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

Implementing the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Every child deserves a safe and nurturing home...

Perfectly happy to see Zacharia go. But it might be pointed out that if she had stayed, she would have done infinitely less damage to the nation than Hegseth, Kennedy, Blanche, Patel, Vought, et al. They should be as unacceptable as—more unacceptable than—Zacharia.

Funny how Dr. Oz being Muslim never bothers MAGA. I’ve never heard Trump call Dr. Oz “Mohammed.” But Abdul El-Sayed being Muslim is suddenly a huge fucking problem.

Trump on El-Sayed: I’m the president. I can call you whatever the hell I want Muhammad. His name is actually Abdullahalalalala baa ba ba Muhammad El-Sayed. So his middle name is Muhammad. I was right.. almost.

Closing message from Republicans being straight up Islamophobia is a terrible choice. Calling Abdul Mohammed, saying he’s Muslim brotherhood, saying he may have assimilated but so was the Fort Hood shooter is disgusting stuff.  And Jews - even ones who aren’t supporting him - aren’t interested in that crap.

Just wait until he hears the story of James Donald Bowman. Who came home from school one day and said that now he wants to be James David Hamel. Then he started wearing eye shadow and said he'd rather be called JD Vance. These things happen.

Trump: "We have 5 states where your child goes off to school as Tim and comes back as Tammy 3 or 4 days later. It's true. And teachers make a decision. 'Goodbye Timmy I love you so much, I'll see you later.' And you say, 'Where's my son? My son is in the hospital.' Can you imagine? They don't even need approval"

You can argue that he's just lying for the crowd, but it takes a certain kind of derangement to talk this way - and it's even possible that he believes it.

Truly disgusting what the Republican Party and parts of our media have normalized on this country. Just open naked racism and bigotry and mockery of minorities. Can you imagine a Muhammad or Abdullah in the schoolground getting bullied by kids who heard the president do it first?

🤔 What the hell is wrong with Trump? 🤔 Trump gave a bonkers speech in Georgia that included Islamophobic bigotry, oddly sexual comments about men, crazed lies about teachers secretly trans-ing kids, and a variety of other insane rants Here's the lowlight reel:
