For me, this is the most important line of this important piece: "It is long past time that we stop imputing some deeper or reasonable motives to Donald Trump." I am beginning to lose my mind listening to news programs blindly, cowardly, or cluelessly try to ascribe adult or reasonable motives to Donald's actions. Everything he does is just a spasm coming from his desperate pathology, astonishing stupidity, and the quick rotting of the 2 or 3 brain cells he might have once had. I feel like every newscast should have a chyron across the bottom of the screen that says "Today, noises came out of the hole at the bottom of Trump's face" because that's the level of meaning they have. In fact, the only real meaning his words have is an endless revealing of his pathology, stupidity, and senility.
What's even more incomprehensible is that Congress members support his stupidity, when they absolutely know that everything this "thing" says is unconstitutional garbage. This was the same man that went nuts with our involvement in Afghanistan which was a no win situation. And now, what does he do, in one of the most anti-American, anti-liberty countries in the Middle East? I mean, really? Iran may be weakened, but they have powerful allies. Did he even think about that???
I think we need to listen carefully to what Mary wrote. You referred to Donald as the "same man." I try to remember that he is not a man because a man has a soul. I refer to him as one of the most destructive organisms that has ever been in a position of power. Also, at the end, you wrote "Did he even think about that???" No, he didn't think about it, not because he didn't take it into account, but because labeling anything that goes on inside that head as "thinking" is, exactly to Mary's point, imputing something to Donald that he doesn't/can't do. I think the term "sane-washing" is way too mild for what goes on.
I believe Donald Trump is being 'used' playing a role because I believe he has a 'Personality DISORDER & THE VERY 'REASON' those came up with this PLAN NEEDED SOMONE WITH HIS ISSUES to be able to scam the PEOPLE separate them & go after the Media next & so on. Not sure if Mary may have mentioned something to that effect (?); however, other professional have. I recall the first time I went to my Representative & the 'pat' response from him I then noticed others were getting form their Reps. same thing - that was the first of many time odd & red flags started going up for me about all of this from the very beginning and I so hoped I was wrong . My response to what that Representatives put forth tht he thought anyone would go along with this & that was " oh, it simply personality" as if, no problem look beyond & look at how great this President really is. I recall saying "what? and personality (?) : only if you mean "personality disorder" ! I at that point realized of course they wanted him inposition as President in 2016 I believe Mary could explain the 'danger' of someone that has that DISORDER. It was inevitable so many actually are so committed to him; really believe HIM & REASON he can sound so 'honest'.....I think Mary could explain why people who have this issue are people to 'run' from . I just HOPE somehow this can be turned around as the future these people in our Govt now want is not going to be good for our Country,; destroying our Fed Gove and oh so sad & destructive OUR Constitution will be NEXT, wanting to alienate our Allies , be a cancer for our World & especially do damage to WE THE PEOPLE. :-(
I understand that voting in the USA is a choice and that at the last federal election 40% of those who were eligible to vote, didn't. What I read/saw online is that many of those people saw their NOT voting as a protest.
Protesting against what, I don't know. Maybe someone could educate me about that specific issue please.
I'm wondering if any of these non-voters were part of the peaceful protestors recently. If they didn't vote then why are they upset about what government they got?
Well, these are the people who NEED to vote along with everyone else at EVERY election on any level from School Boards to Dog Catcher right through to the highest levels. Remember that the 'Moms of Liberty' are ensuring they eventually have every School board across the country under their control. It's a citizen's apathy/indifference towards voting which allows those with insidious agendas to silently slide into place and exert controll.
Voting OUT the members of Congress who voted for his bills and confirmed his judges, his cabinet etc is the only way to get rid of these liars & manipulators.
After that, petitions to elected members in office and peaceful protests to bring forward other objections you have about policies and/or the people who are in so called power should rout out the corruption. In a democracy the VOTERS have the power!
It's so refreshing to read someone else see's CONGRESS goes along with all this both parties it recently occurred to me. They do me are more responsible & not just the used to GOP but no longer. Congress abdicated their Constitutional responsibility to this ugh sad man President who basically I believe clueless as to the real ISSUES ; chose to be the scape goat, so to speak & being directed by none other than Mr. Russell Vought who this President appointed to the Office of Director of 'Management & Budget" for our Country; he being 1 of 2 co-authors of such a destructive scheming "con the PEOPLE" Project & who is the "chief proponent of the Theory that Donald Trump voted in as President of our USA can essentially eliminate CONGRESS (WITH congress BLESSING obviously enablers and schemers themselves - PATHETIC) plan was & working to eliminate 'their' role in US Gov't & also provide this President the option his own decisions alone can defund anything they say to do on his own say so even though that is NOT what our Constitution was remotely ever set up for . Never seen or heard or read how twisting interpretations to fit what and how they NOW are being enabled to allow a President with obvious personal issues who seem to now enjoy playing 'dangerous' 'game' of 'toy solder' like these are not real people but little plastic toy to be played with & He gets to be the GENERAL. It's so destructive and damaging and should by now after all the years of THIS be obvious what the 'game ' is and so insulting to the very intelligence of THE PEOPLE. The "People:" I wonder if know how THEY REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE & not just go along & encouraged what is occurring which is so obvious now. The People CAN make a good difference but if not start and continue will lose that opportunity & be brought down to worse than just 'FINAICIAL PROVERTY' but much worse by this now no longer qualified any longer, lost their W A Y & worse within our CONGRESS. WITHIN BOTH PARTIES. There seem(?) so few genuine any longer. Dems at 2l % Polling? That's not ever realistic months now and THEY DON'T DO A DAMNED THING NOT REALLY !!!! That's too odd. I keep hopeing it's some plan unfortunately seems more they going along with the once GOP & that's sick and owrse if they are.
"For me, this is the most important line of this important piece: 'It is long past time that we stop imputing some deeper or reasonable motives to Donald Trump.'"
Thank you, you took the quote right out of my fingertips! However, the dreadful thoughts that quickly followed as I read this the first time was: what about The Heritage Foundation, though, in terms of "imputing some deeper or reasonable motives?" And, how much might this accelerate and further Project 2025's implementation, if only by taking the focus off of *all* the horrifying acts that have ramped up here in recent weeks?
Ever given any thought that perhaps The Heritage Foundation...people Theil , the billionaires et al are using trump as " the front fall guy"...the visual of a PINO ..while they plan/ manipulate sub rosa ...behind the curtains...they being the real.Edgar Bergen pulling the strings to Trump's Charlie McCarthy? Question whether trump has much gas left in his thinking tank to cogently. " think through" much of anything anymore ...if he was ever capable at all. Factor in the.cruel guidance of the Millers' at his side...who needs a dazed disabled has been ....a new Reich on the drawing board.
Absolutely. I felt this the minute Project 2025 came to light. Evil people like Steven Miller and Musk knew they cld use his ego to make him seem important while they ran the govt. Their scheme was to rule via executive order, cutting out Congress and our system of checks and balances and making tRump the front man who so relishes and covets the glory he gets in his signing moments before cameras...like a pig in slop...and mostly unconstitutional. He's too stupid to thnk of half ths stuff...save wht they give him like flagpole construction and parades and abominable decor of Oval Office.
Greg....my dear Sir....the repulsicans & cult have certainly chosen the right
" distraction " biggggly ...in the demonic ..mentally disintegrating personage of the donald! Good eye ! Even Vance..the veep,..assures us all " We are not at War with Iran!'. Where do they find these Mensa rejects ?His nose grows every time he opens his mouth.Kinda funny lookin' , don't you think.??
I wish more news journalists would speak of his mental illness. He is drunk with power. Probably this war has something to do with people’s not liking his parade. I didn’t even see much of his family there. Anyone see Baron?
About Trump's mental illness: I did a deep dive into this subject quite a few years ago (a good source was M. Scott Peck's "People of the Lie . . . ") and reached the irrefutable conclusion that Donald Trump is a malignant narcissist, a particularly dangerous personality type. Many - - - probably most - - - who have made similar studies likely arrived at this conclusion. So then, how did Trump become President again? That's on us, folks. Ignorance is no excuse.: This wasn't a hard call. And it put our nation in peril. We will be lucky to survive this.
Even more simple ... he won because a super rich computer freak paid his way and helped eliminate most of the Black vote. I worked in Elections at that time, tech support in two states and know how he did it!
You are so right, Bob. Trump meets every characteristics for being a narcissistic sociopath. If you look up the developmental characteristics of a 2nd or 3rd grade child you would also see that he depicts the characteristics of one who is stuck in an early state of arrested emotional development that they could not outgrow. Early childhood trauma is a powerful negative developmental force. OMG, our fellow Americans, some with the best of intentions, have placed our country's safety along with our nuclear codes in the hands of an emotionally trapped child in a man's body.
I did not vote for Donald, but those who did are the ones who released the Donald monester on the World Stage! Now Congress, the Military and the Supreme Court are to blame for not capturing this Donald Monester and locking him up/Removing him and his side kicks from Governing! Congress and Supreme Court Do Your Constitutional JOBS !!!
Not on me!! I hate it when people say it's on us, we voted him in. I DID NOT!! i screamed it from the house tops no, I told everyone who would listen exactly what would happen and it is! I asked them why? I told them he had no integrity, morals, credibility, competence. He was a criminal, so very corrupt, a convicted rapist, a felon, a fraud, a liar. I had facts. No one would listen. They all just kept saying what they heard on Fox news. I am not silent and I am active and help where I can to help save our Democracy. I did not vote this joke/nightmare in!😱
Melinda....please don't forget the infamy of Mitch McConnell in stacking the judicial choices for years....various court appointments to pave the way for just what this country is having to painfully...dangerously...suffer through today. Mitch took his thirty pieces of silver to realizes his crowning political dream..stacking the courts with repulsican synchophants. He aided & abetted an incompetent presidential candidate knowingly!.May he ever be judged by his treachery.
I've stopped major network and news in print for that reason. Timid and trying not to offend anyone. Cancelled subscriptions. I read some substack and /Talking Points Memo for real news.
I agree! After 57 years of professional health systems practice, with decades spent in administration & program development, I am hard pressed to see any signs of emotional maturity, insight, or leadership skills in this pathetic excuse for a man, let alone a president. He is foul-mouthed, cruel, lacking in moral or ethical values, & inconsiderate of others, yet, as is common with many sociopaths, he can be charming when that benefits him. He lacks meaningful vision. He is motivated only by self-agrandizement & enrichment. His proclivity for lying knows no bounds & I'm often hard pressed to see any evidence that he is any longer able to separate facts from his own fantasies. I have transitioned myself to stop thinking of him & his followers as a Party, but rather as a cult with cultivated followers. When viewed through that lens, the chaos in which we are living becomes more understandable ... & even more terrifying!
Quite right Loren. May I recommend you watch Being There starring Peter Sellers. It follows the trajectory of a simpleton who is elevated to President by a wealthy man. It predicted this phenomenon exactly.
I wonder what the allies and the Hague are thinking of this and maybe tgey will proceed with charges against trump. He must have broken dozens of international laws.
He's the president of peace, they said. Trump will end war, they said.
All conflicts have gotten worse on his watch. What could be dumber than bombing someone while you are having peace negotiations with them?
"Since you refuse to award me the Nobel Peace Prize, I have decided to set the world on fire." - Donald J. Trump
We have a mentally unstable president. I remember the old days when Presidents followed the Constitution and obtained Congressional authorization before starting a stupid war.
This is a clear violation of the constitution and highly dangerous for Trump to have unchecked unilateral powers. Congress must immediately impeach him!
They told me if I voted for Harris we'd end up a needless war. Well, I voted for her, Trump won and guess what... 🙄
This "Don't blame me, I voted for her" hat goes everywhere with me now 👇
Perhaps attempts to Impeach him the 3rd time will do the trick! ☑️👍
He never should have been allowed to be put on the ballot as a Felon for a Presidential Candidate. 31 guilty verdict's by a jury of his peers. How demoralizing for our Country, we we are a laughing stock to the other Countries now!🤡🥸🤣😂
I pray we don't get attacked or dragged into another War in the Middle East provoked by Trump & Netnanyahu!🥷🛩️💣🚀🚢🆘⚓🪖🗡️🔫😔🇮🇷🇺🇲
George Conway, the conservative lawyer, continuously refers to Benedict Donald as a malignant narcissist. All of this should have been prevented if the courts and Merrick Garland had been more proficient in moving along his prosecution of this diabolical and despicable tyrant.
I really believe Merrick Garland would have made a wonderful Supreme Court Judge; however, I agree with you William & wonder 'why' he was so lacking in wasting time so that what occurred did & left open for thie man to once again become - sigh - and continue to be "used" in position of President which in sense I see him having 'fun' & playing his games and our Country be ravaged but I hope Congress more accountable & all those within all three Branches going along with this extremely destructive Russel so-author Project 25 put in position to be giving order to this President and he follows other than the fun things he impulsively does. Maybe this is payment he's getting for playing HIS VERY IMPORTANT PART......keep those people separated & stick close to Fox news commentators especially Hannity ? what a PLAN .
There is nothing remotely sane, sensible to nominate a felon. It is far beyond anything rational and it is against all common sense. US 'democracy' is risible and slanted heavily toward rich, racist, old, white, elitist, corporate elites. The slant is so 'heavy' it is almost vertical. Whenever that multi-changed defective Constitution was written, the benefactors were the rich, racist, old, white, elitist plantation and slave owners. "Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose".
Totally agree, but this Congress is impotent and will never impeach their dear leader. Right now, we don’t have a functional congress. Rather they are pathetic with no backbone and no morals. They are a disgrace. The only hope is 2026, but getting a Senate majority will be difficult.
They're just prepping for the day when the Dump decides he doesn't need a Congress, or in the case of a king, a parliament, and tweets to them (he's too chickens**t to tell them to their faces) YOU'RE FIRED.
that's already been proposed & happening Steve. as I earlier posted Russell Vought one of the 2 co-authors of Project 25 & "Chief proponent of the Theory Donald Trump can essentially eliminate CONGRESS role in US Gov't & also defund anything "they say" do do on his own say so. " Congress has already abdicated important constitutional jobs that by Constitution is their responsibility - they in congress abdicated those TO TRUMP....it's already being done Steve. Seems at this point the only people who so far anyway keep this travesty of justice going against those doing such destructive acting out what they are in terrible W A Y are , so far, many of the lower Courts mostly district I think & Trump ET AL especially this ugh VP Vance, DoD Hegseth & Rubio which he really surprised me and so disappointing; he even look like become hardened in his very appearance; at first he looked to me scared in sense but he still went along now? Looks like he's hooked - they speak of wants to impeach those good judges for it ? Congress is more accountable in being complicit to all of this. mess of a PLAN It's really 'scary' & unbelievable truly that they are getting away with it. That's an understatement.
Note this Congress reflects those who voted him in! I do not believe their are enough Psyhchiasts to Treat all those who voted for this Evil Man to be President!
You will be attacked, count on it, and Trump has just dragged you into another war in the Middle East in spite of his promises not to do so. Expect terrorist attacks on your own soil, on your military bases in the Middle East, and massive loss of life. All because your so-called President practices FOMO as a foreign policy and can't let his buddy Putin or Netanyahu have all the fun of blowing things up.
Several states--Colorado and my state of Michigan--reneged on promises not to allow TCF's name to appear on our ballot, because of the U.S. constitution's insurrection prohibition. I wish someone would help me understand why.
I think sneak attacks in the US is what Iran will try to do- makes more impact when it's on US soil unfortunately for all the innocent citizens that might be in the way
realistically there are only 2 parties that can win or lose in this next 2026 election. I think both of them are W A Y off but in different ways. I had googled for a poll as of today regarding the Democrats as noticed for long time not they polling in the 20;s % which is very 'odd'. Today 21% . I find myself HOPING they wisely are coming up with some reasonable PLAN they will put forth when closer to elections because what they have been showing with only same relative people over and over the only one's to be speaking out and that too is odd when it would seem most all would be doing that so again I only HOPE it's because they are remaining still & will have come up with a good Plan & start perhaps speaking on how THEY could do better concerning all of the issues i.e. especially with our immigrants and Economy .....if they don't then what I'm thinking sadly about them too I don't want to believe is the actual case but it wouldn't surprise me. & then? If i'm not wrong and I hope I am our Country , well....... :-( truly.
We can also blame SCOTUS for the immunity ruling. This is the main reason he has pissed all over the Constitution and is running hot and untethered.
I read that the House Republicans were briefed before the attacks and Democrats were briefed after the attacks. I don't think that the dems were "briefed" per se, I think that they were told it happened and were then told that there is nothing they can do about it. And so far, they have done nothing except strongly worded posts on SM.
Let's not forget Judge Chutjan's (sic) "sentence" of "unconditional release" on his 34 guilty charges. If he had followed up with any form of justice that would apply to any one of us, the malignant maniac would be looking at the world through bars at Riker's Island - if he even lasted that long at the hands of his fellow inmates. I have no doubt that the judge was protecting his family from certain acts of terrorism by the MAGAT enforcers, but the ensuing damage caused to the world at large far outweighs the welfare of the few, who would certainly have qualified for government protection.
And lower prices, end Gaza in a day and give everyone rainbows 🌈 and unicorns 🦄 and magas fell for it , now it's the big ugly bill to strip away everyone's rights, don't fall for that.
The two presidents who went ahead with attacks without informing or getting approval by Congress are both Republican. Nixon, who widened the Vietnam War by bombing its next door neighbor Cambodia and Ronald Reagan’s little illegal war in El Salvador—financing it by selling weapons to Iran, without Congressional approval. And of course W. Bush and Cheney getting Congressional approval to invade Iraq by lying that Saddam Hussein had nuclear Weapons of Mass Destruction aimed directly at the US. I could go on, but Trump is just using the ever corrupt Republican playbook of acting in defiance of Congress.
Absolutely. We should have waited until the bombed us. There is no reason to have 60% uranium except for weapons. What they claimed it for, 60% isn't needed. Only dirty bombs are. 90 for nukes.
You—the people—fighting for your country and for democracy: yes, you have allies. You have the support of all of us who still believe in democratic foundations. I’m German, living in Germany, and many here—especially in the western part of the country—have not forgotten how your nation helped rebuild ours after the war. That bond still means something.
And yet, some of us quietly hope that once this regime is no longer in power, you won’t simply return to business as usual. We hope you’ll finally begin the long-overdue conversation about renewing a Constitution that, as it stands, leaves more than 80% of your citizens out in the cold—while the other 20% keeps dancing, funded by that very exclusion.
We’re watching. We’re hoping. And many of us still believe you can rise to meet the moment.
A lot of us in the US hope we'll begin that conversation about renewing the Constitution. We badly need to address voting rights and all the issues that impede them.
And maybe—finally—make civil and human rights truly inalienable. Not handed out like medals that can be revoked when inconvenient. I’d invite anyone thinking seriously about a constitutional update to start with what’s been standard almost everywhere else for decades—even in countries that aren’t democracies: public healthcare, no child labor, paid sick leave, paid vacation.
And yes, a system that no longer thrives on exploiting 80% of its people so the wealthiest can get even richer—while everyone else wonders how to afford groceries, housing, or medical care.
You’re absolutely right, David. Voting rights matter. And so does the dignity of daily life.
Heather, I live in Germany and feel really grounded answering this. The short version: no, you don’t get arrested simply for offending someone. That idea floats around a lot internationally and often misses how the legal structure actually works.
There are specific laws around insult or defamation—especially when it involves hate speech, Holocaust denial, or targeted (right-wing )abuse—but these aren’t about protecting someone’s feelings. They’re rooted in protecting human dignity and social peace, especially given our history. They could be violating constitutional frameworks and are criminal offenses, not simple defamations.
People speak freely here. We protest, we criticize, we argue publicly. What’s different is the baseline: rights come with shared responsibility. So speech that incites violence or degrades human dignity (especially toward minorities or historically persecuted groups) has limits. And honestly, that feels like a strength to me—not censorship, just a different center of gravity.
Exactly, Bob. And from here in Germany, it’s striking how often those “more comfortable theories” end up shielding power rather than confronting it. Truth isn’t comfortable—it’s clarifying. And right now, clarity is what we all need most. Thank you for naming it so simply and sharply.
Bruce, born and still living in Einbeck, Lower Saxony—the town that gave the world strong Bock beer. And thank you. Layers of trauma, some woven into my native German, led me to begin writing here on Substack in September 2024. By now, I write about 90% of everything in English and likely speak more English than German. It’s been deeply healing. And yes—though born German, it often feels as if my heart came wired American.
Thank you. This is the kind of encouragement and support we need at this time. Because every attempt at righting this sinking vessel is complicated by the rodents finding another way to make that crevice harder to mend.
Hey to our friends over in Germany, glad some of you know that many of us are horrified with the menace who occupies the WH, when not on the golf course. Bless you.
I'm glad the Brits are still our friends. I like them. I LOVED Queen Elizabeth when I learned about how she'd been a mechanic in WWII, and how she'd scared the pee out of some Arab leader from one of those countries where women aren't allowed to drive, who she took for a ride in her Land Rover, and when I'd heard more generally about her great sense of humor! I love the Mother Country and its people!
Writing from New Zealand. We are still allied to all right-thinking, non-racist, non-misogynist, non-anti immigrant, peace loving Americans who are not trump following maga ingrates.
At my guess about 2/3rds of your population. 'Rise like lions from slumber...' (Lord Byron) and end this shit show.
Don’t leave out factor Musk used StarLink and cash to cheat in all swing states listen to trump interviews he won by 1.6% thats crazy no call for recount. I will always feel he never won fairly. To many oddities
Recently, I have read some interesting documentation on methods of cheating that Donald Trump's team took to ensure he would take all of the seven swing states. When you look at the analysis of the election results, it is pretty clear that there had to be musk hijinks to change voting machines, to delete people off of voting registrations… This can all be done from a distance by computer nowadays
I think Nana, directly above you, makes a valid point.Musk poured money into Trump's campaign, close to $300 million, according to a variety of reputable sources (I just googled).
I have lots of friends and colleagues gathered up over 55 years of career and I feel sorry for them. But, the USA nation chose, with eyes wide open, to become the pariah of the planet.
Please don't use Trump's name to create an epithet, which does for the derriere--a body part that's been celebrated in painting and sculpture, and that many of us appreciate--what the c-word does for the female genitals. People should not make epithets out of body parts.
On top of that, there is at least one very good Trump--Mary Trump. Despite being in the same family, she's very much on our side, having written two highly critical books about her uncle.
They're probably thinking " What a damn idiot.....he's let his narcissm out again".
Yes, he's broken God knows how many international laws and has probably knocked any diplomatic solution back to the Stone Age. Making life incredibly difficult for the REAL deal makers.
Also, and also importantly, he's just broken American Constitutional Law by ( virtually) declaring war on another country without getting the approval of Congress. ( literally on his own say so)
Only Congress can declare war and it must be by vote. The President has no such power or ability to LEGALLY commence hostilities without Congressional approval.
This will be a nightmare for America's Supreme Court in a myriad of ways. ( That will be interesting to see how they deal with that can of worms. Let alone the international backlash.).
I hope our Supreme Court is not beyond repair. Unfortunately it appears to have gone down a rabbit hole so deeply that it makes it hard to envision them emerging unscathed. It may take a generation or more to establish a Supreme Court worthy of the name, proclaiming in fairness and justice and not seen as having sold itself to the highest bidder. Much like the Republican Party as it exists today.
Only if he's arrested in a nation that's a member of the ICC. Otherwise, there's no extradition from a non-ICC nation because of jurisdiction. They'd have to kidnap him, literally, and bring his vile diapered ass to The Hague.
In what country will he be when he goes to Europe? That will make a big difference as to whether he can be arrested and charged with international war crimes just like his buddy Putin
I'm also wondering if the country that's a member of the ICC would shield the orange Mussolini or not? Would said country permit ICC officers to apprehend the felon in chief, and how would Secret Service handle the issue? Big questions.....
I can only wish! I remember people used to say “someone needs to take one for the greater good” my god I wishful is all can say. I NEVER dislike more of Americans than I do right now!! Article I posted on Blue Sky that shows how many really voted for the idiot in WH 29% voted for dumbass out 340,million 77million voted for the felon! The rest stayed home voted for another, stayed home. I will try to find post on SUBSTACK Now I can’t remember numbers but there was Starlinks at play in several swing states DJT even stated he didn’t need votes if wasn’t for Musk Trump would’ve not won his words.
So bomb threats in GA 3 polling place people could go back to vote. All dem Counties, Tx right before presidential election Tx Corrupt Ken Paxton deleted over 1000+ voter registration saying they were dead or sound illegal. When hundreds started calling wanting to know what happened no good answers. Most horrible thing was his disgusting raids on Latino org head treated 80y old woman with distain by raiding her house at 6am saying she was illegally get voters to register hmm why she help people understand how to file their voters reg no one could vote in American if they we not CITZEN. It’s really unclear why Paxton chose that group who formed in 1960s most like because most might vote Democrat but nothing was ever share. Now Paxton time is up he running for Senate? Wow to replace? Cruz? Comer? Or Crockett he’s been indicted, 8 Tx assist Attorneys filed charges against him it drug on for year then disappeared. Gov is as bad as Paxton these guys don’t win elections they cheat. The entire Tx republicans are as fake and corrupt as djt. It’s sure odd that only Rep win Gov and AG! Cruz was AG boy did Tx make him money. They have no Electric grid that’s why 220 Texan died 1 winter while Cruz flew to Cancun. These republicans are all Corrupt how they get away with it makes me sick. They game is the same Create Chaos and Distractions like thru Obama the hell they gave he and Michelle made angry. They hated he was smart, articulate, knew what he was doing even wearing a tan suit God Forbid. Then Biden same thing now Americans are suffering for Republicans Corruption we will continue until the most corrupt President we’ve ever had in our History why because he can’t take responsible for his action. He will destroy all aspects of his crimes again. Republicans who flew to Hungary in early 2024 should be looked into their actions. I believe DJT is and will continue using ORBANS playbook to become full Dictator unless we stop DJT & VANCE remove both from office. That’s the only way we get out of this mess. I listen to Comey he is right about our agency he cant destroy them as they are made up of Americans most take pride in their work. It creates a culture. Iam pray the core groups of Fed workers stick out for the good of America 🇺🇸 let’s pray. Djt says no wars for last 8 yrs now he’s more power hungry because he know he will dies sooner than later god soon please! 🙏🏻 sorry again side track rant I am worried for my grandkids. My youngest Granddaughter wants to join Air Force. Am scared if this gets worse she has 3 yrs. Just not while evil is taking aim at women in Military
In the case of Netanyahu, being free is a massive burden. When he flies somewhere, he takes twice as long to get there as he must avoid airspace from multiple countries where his plane can be forced to land and he can be arrested. He lives in fear, constantly of being assassinated. Just last week Iran threw a missile through his bedroom window. He wasn't there but they know his location. There are Iranian spies all over Israel, they arrest them as they find them.
I think this is far worse than sitting safe ish in a jail cell. He and his plane is a target at any moment, day or night.
You are right, Mary. I also feel this is another way to distract us from his “Big Beautiful Bill” which should be front and center right now. This thing must not pass and we must get the word out about how much damage this bill if passed will do to our Country. We must not turn our attention to whatever shiny object he puts out there but use all our energy and resources to beat this bill back. Keep at it Mary, we appreciate you.
The photo shows 4 corrupt, unqualified, illiterate, greedy, disturbed men who have no business making decisions to effect world peace and order. Makes me terrified and sad.
KING should abide by the constitution and stop his one man show. Yes the time needed for congressional approval for war powers is confusing. Who is going to stop him from his “one man show?” This is a democracy not a kingdom. Participation by “ Congress” is a must , in a democracy.
Even in a democracy which has a King as head of state like Great Britain would not allow the King to do what he liked. On the contrary he has to defer to the commons. He does give royal assent to bills passed through Parliament but he can never unilaterally do anything that is not sanctioned by the commons and the Lords
In fact, the power of the King in the UK is entirely ceremonial. Every power (legislative, executive, judicial) is for show and exercised by the Parliament, the PM and their cabinet, the courts.
If we are still in a Democracy, why aren't our constitutional laws being used against DJT?
Looks like we could be heading into WW3 very quickly. He's still trying to find a way to receive the Nobel Prize he thinks he deserves, maybe he believes he can start and stop a war and earn that prize somehow. His mind, when it works at all, keeps telling him how great, smart, etc. he is.
In reality , his narcissistic tendencies come out at strange times. Right now his behavior is such that he thinks his powers are absolute and unchallenged by his government and populace. He is so God Damed wrong !!!WW111 is on the horizon, and still thinks he is the absolute leader… with his cabinet and military leaders council kept in the background with no say as to directions. He is a “schmuck.”
Could someone explain to me what Congress is doing right now. Surely they should be hauling Trump Hegseth and Vance in to explain why this unilateral action came about. It seems to me that the whole republican party goes along with whatever Trump says or does. Which means that they are all culpable for his actions as they have done nothing to rein him in. In the end if Trump was to go Vance would be next and I fear things would get a whole lot worse if that's possible. The whole Republican party should hang their heads in shame
I am so in hope of citizens banding together 4th of July ....millions & millions of us to once again show the World our strength...not our taking a knee to tyranny.in our beloved country. If you are physically able, join in massive groups of PROTEST...NO DESPOTS ! NO KINGS! Most of us are the children ,the grandchildren, et.al of immigrants.
trump has chosen to " forget" that he too is the progeny of immigrants.
Exactly, will THIS be the final straw where they will take action? Retaliatory strikes? Full blown war? What will it actually take for Congress (the ENTIRE body of Congree) to finally take action against the Madness of "King" Donald and his regime of imbeciles??
I guess we should just let 9-11 happen again, only this time with Nukes, I do not want that to happen. Three thousand people died and that is just a fraction of what will happen if we are nuked.
I can only say one thing 9-11, I suppose you want that to happen again, I sure do not. We have to do whatever is necessary to prevent such a thing (or worse) from happening. Three thousand people, mostly Americans died in that event, their sacrifice should count for something.
Think about how your are going to survive the followers of radical Islam when they come for you. Oh they already have or did you forget 9-11 and the three thousand mostly US citizens who died because as a direct result of the actions of radical Islamists?
Iran did no attack us. We attacked them. All so felon 47 could distract us us from seeing how failed his regime is. Also, for felon 47 to do that is unconstitutional!!
We we attacked on 9-11. As I said before the attack was caused by people who follow radical Islam. The leaders of Iran follow radical Islam. Just like all Nazis are bad, all people who follow radical Islam are bad, I do not care if they come from different countries, they all want to kill me and I am going to defend myself and my family. If they do not hate you then stay out of it, I understand why if you do not feel danger you might not care about other people. So stay out of it. I do not like TRUMP and I did not vote for the man, but a lot of people did, so I have to accept that even though I do not like it. Trump's term will be over and then we can elect a good President, hopefully, but it is not up to just me or you, we live in a democracy and I am thankful for that.
Iran by the way is NOT a democracy. I do no blame the Iranian people they are being persecuted by their leaders and the secret police who will do whatever their leaders tell them to do.
Well, so far he has gotten obscenely rich with all the grifts and merchandise. The under-the-table money must be enormous (bribes for pardons and other backroom deals). I wish he understood that he won't be buried with the money and his NASTY children will just blow it on cocaine and other pastimes of the rich. I truly believe ALL of his children are scum.
Cherie, perfectly said 💯🎯.... and yes, his spawn are pure scum, every single one of them, as is his current wife; Who lied on her application to come here. Yeah, she's a genius and extraordinary talent all right. Just another vile grifter in a dress. 🤮
Even Chicken Little would say this is TOO MUCH!!! After last night's news of the bombing of Iran, I told my husband, "He's gone and done it. ALL OF IT. So, now what?" Everything that Hillary, Kamala, and others said would happen, has. What's Trump planning on doing next? And, what will it take to stop him dead in his tracks?
And yet, a fully qualified, intelligent person , who just happened to be a WOMAN OF COLOR, was denied the Office of the Presidency, because she was a supposed warmonger??
He's going to continue to bomb Iran, following in the footsteps Bibi took with the Palestinians. A genocidal war. Given his pathological behavior thus far, this seems a likely direction for him and his cronies.
It's not endless, but it sure feels like it. He's not omnipotent, but it sure feels like he's got too much power, when in reality, it's stolen and, therefore, he won't be able to keep it.
For sure, he's got a lot of enablers. It's shocking to see how many. But, again, definitely not endless. They're actually the minority. It's all the stolen resources and "toys" they have at their disposal, at the moment, that makes our task daunting. Many, many will die before this is all said and done, but this fight must be engaged and won by us, The Resistance.
Every day is another “WTF Day” with this lawless regime. Our Constitution is in shreds on the hallways of Congress and on the floor in front of the Supreme Court Bench. There is no balance of power left. I fear the United States of America is lost, and we may never find it.
Always remember where this started (really after the election of 1968, in which 3rd party lunatic racist Wallace won 5 states' Electoral College votes). The party embraced the lunatic, ignorant, racist class in order to avoid losing an election due to a 3rd party. Then Bush 1 appointed Thomas to the court. His son appointed Roberts and Alito. Then this scum Trump appointed 3 MORE right-wing scumbags (Kavanaugh being the worst). The party destroyed the integrity and decency of the Supreme Court - and they planned it that way.
Donald is a grown infant. He had a thoroughly rotten birthday parade and over 10 million people turned out on the "We Hate Your Guts" protests.
He came right out and said that Tulsi was "wrong". He wanted to strut around like he won, so he staged the attack. Everything that Donald does can be judged by the infant scale. His we-we gets hurt, he'll do something.
Because he is the supposed "President", his infantile turmoil causes problems for us. We can only hope to be able to go about our lives and none of his toys get thrown at us.
For me, this is the most important line of this important piece: "It is long past time that we stop imputing some deeper or reasonable motives to Donald Trump." I am beginning to lose my mind listening to news programs blindly, cowardly, or cluelessly try to ascribe adult or reasonable motives to Donald's actions. Everything he does is just a spasm coming from his desperate pathology, astonishing stupidity, and the quick rotting of the 2 or 3 brain cells he might have once had. I feel like every newscast should have a chyron across the bottom of the screen that says "Today, noises came out of the hole at the bottom of Trump's face" because that's the level of meaning they have. In fact, the only real meaning his words have is an endless revealing of his pathology, stupidity, and senility.
What's even more incomprehensible is that Congress members support his stupidity, when they absolutely know that everything this "thing" says is unconstitutional garbage. This was the same man that went nuts with our involvement in Afghanistan which was a no win situation. And now, what does he do, in one of the most anti-American, anti-liberty countries in the Middle East? I mean, really? Iran may be weakened, but they have powerful allies. Did he even think about that???
I think we need to listen carefully to what Mary wrote. You referred to Donald as the "same man." I try to remember that he is not a man because a man has a soul. I refer to him as one of the most destructive organisms that has ever been in a position of power. Also, at the end, you wrote "Did he even think about that???" No, he didn't think about it, not because he didn't take it into account, but because labeling anything that goes on inside that head as "thinking" is, exactly to Mary's point, imputing something to Donald that he doesn't/can't do. I think the term "sane-washing" is way too mild for what goes on.
💯🎯
Next to Hitler and the Like!
Think..????Surely you jest...!
Not that incomprehensible bec they are all addicted to power. Few have the guts to oppose him and risk getting dumped off the gravy train.
I believe Donald Trump is being 'used' playing a role because I believe he has a 'Personality DISORDER & THE VERY 'REASON' those came up with this PLAN NEEDED SOMONE WITH HIS ISSUES to be able to scam the PEOPLE separate them & go after the Media next & so on. Not sure if Mary may have mentioned something to that effect (?); however, other professional have. I recall the first time I went to my Representative & the 'pat' response from him I then noticed others were getting form their Reps. same thing - that was the first of many time odd & red flags started going up for me about all of this from the very beginning and I so hoped I was wrong . My response to what that Representatives put forth tht he thought anyone would go along with this & that was " oh, it simply personality" as if, no problem look beyond & look at how great this President really is. I recall saying "what? and personality (?) : only if you mean "personality disorder" ! I at that point realized of course they wanted him inposition as President in 2016 I believe Mary could explain the 'danger' of someone that has that DISORDER. It was inevitable so many actually are so committed to him; really believe HIM & REASON he can sound so 'honest'.....I think Mary could explain why people who have this issue are people to 'run' from . I just HOPE somehow this can be turned around as the future these people in our Govt now want is not going to be good for our Country,; destroying our Fed Gove and oh so sad & destructive OUR Constitution will be NEXT, wanting to alienate our Allies , be a cancer for our World & especially do damage to WE THE PEOPLE. :-(
... Congress & a politicized segment of SCOTUS. I never thought our Supreme Court would fail us.
Aussie here 🦘
I understand that voting in the USA is a choice and that at the last federal election 40% of those who were eligible to vote, didn't. What I read/saw online is that many of those people saw their NOT voting as a protest.
Protesting against what, I don't know. Maybe someone could educate me about that specific issue please.
I'm wondering if any of these non-voters were part of the peaceful protestors recently. If they didn't vote then why are they upset about what government they got?
Well, these are the people who NEED to vote along with everyone else at EVERY election on any level from School Boards to Dog Catcher right through to the highest levels. Remember that the 'Moms of Liberty' are ensuring they eventually have every School board across the country under their control. It's a citizen's apathy/indifference towards voting which allows those with insidious agendas to silently slide into place and exert controll.
Voting OUT the members of Congress who voted for his bills and confirmed his judges, his cabinet etc is the only way to get rid of these liars & manipulators.
After that, petitions to elected members in office and peaceful protests to bring forward other objections you have about policies and/or the people who are in so called power should rout out the corruption. In a democracy the VOTERS have the power!
It's so refreshing to read someone else see's CONGRESS goes along with all this both parties it recently occurred to me. They do me are more responsible & not just the used to GOP but no longer. Congress abdicated their Constitutional responsibility to this ugh sad man President who basically I believe clueless as to the real ISSUES ; chose to be the scape goat, so to speak & being directed by none other than Mr. Russell Vought who this President appointed to the Office of Director of 'Management & Budget" for our Country; he being 1 of 2 co-authors of such a destructive scheming "con the PEOPLE" Project & who is the "chief proponent of the Theory that Donald Trump voted in as President of our USA can essentially eliminate CONGRESS (WITH congress BLESSING obviously enablers and schemers themselves - PATHETIC) plan was & working to eliminate 'their' role in US Gov't & also provide this President the option his own decisions alone can defund anything they say to do on his own say so even though that is NOT what our Constitution was remotely ever set up for . Never seen or heard or read how twisting interpretations to fit what and how they NOW are being enabled to allow a President with obvious personal issues who seem to now enjoy playing 'dangerous' 'game' of 'toy solder' like these are not real people but little plastic toy to be played with & He gets to be the GENERAL. It's so destructive and damaging and should by now after all the years of THIS be obvious what the 'game ' is and so insulting to the very intelligence of THE PEOPLE. The "People:" I wonder if know how THEY REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE & not just go along & encouraged what is occurring which is so obvious now. The People CAN make a good difference but if not start and continue will lose that opportunity & be brought down to worse than just 'FINAICIAL PROVERTY' but much worse by this now no longer qualified any longer, lost their W A Y & worse within our CONGRESS. WITHIN BOTH PARTIES. There seem(?) so few genuine any longer. Dems at 2l % Polling? That's not ever realistic months now and THEY DON'T DO A DAMNED THING NOT REALLY !!!! That's too odd. I keep hopeing it's some plan unfortunately seems more they going along with the once GOP & that's sick and owrse if they are.
"For me, this is the most important line of this important piece: 'It is long past time that we stop imputing some deeper or reasonable motives to Donald Trump.'"
Thank you, you took the quote right out of my fingertips! However, the dreadful thoughts that quickly followed as I read this the first time was: what about The Heritage Foundation, though, in terms of "imputing some deeper or reasonable motives?" And, how much might this accelerate and further Project 2025's implementation, if only by taking the focus off of *all* the horrifying acts that have ramped up here in recent weeks?
Ever given any thought that perhaps The Heritage Foundation...people Theil , the billionaires et al are using trump as " the front fall guy"...the visual of a PINO ..while they plan/ manipulate sub rosa ...behind the curtains...they being the real.Edgar Bergen pulling the strings to Trump's Charlie McCarthy? Question whether trump has much gas left in his thinking tank to cogently. " think through" much of anything anymore ...if he was ever capable at all. Factor in the.cruel guidance of the Millers' at his side...who needs a dazed disabled has been ....a new Reich on the drawing board.
Off with the old...on with the new!?
.." .and miles to go before I sleep..."
Absolutely. I felt this the minute Project 2025 came to light. Evil people like Steven Miller and Musk knew they cld use his ego to make him seem important while they ran the govt. Their scheme was to rule via executive order, cutting out Congress and our system of checks and balances and making tRump the front man who so relishes and covets the glory he gets in his signing moments before cameras...like a pig in slop...and mostly unconstitutional. He's too stupid to thnk of half ths stuff...save wht they give him like flagpole construction and parades and abominable decor of Oval Office.
....but, Donna...elegant.( fools) gold ..biggliest flag poles are soooo biggly !
Dramatic, eye catching symbols of his egocentric self image...
...greatness! Am sure they must be autographed in sharpie ...his gift ( grift ) for posterity to.worship...at its " base."
Brava on your comments, dear lady ! Well done !🤗
Absofuckenlutely a pig in slop no disrespect whatsoever to the pigs
😂👏
😂👏
It’s been said that presidents are elected to distract from the real Centers of power.
Greg....my dear Sir....the repulsicans & cult have certainly chosen the right
" distraction " biggggly ...in the demonic ..mentally disintegrating personage of the donald! Good eye ! Even Vance..the veep,..assures us all " We are not at War with Iran!'. Where do they find these Mensa rejects ?His nose grows every time he opens his mouth.Kinda funny lookin' , don't you think.??
exactly Lynn. :-)
Dump is an eager participant
I wish more news journalists would speak of his mental illness. He is drunk with power. Probably this war has something to do with people’s not liking his parade. I didn’t even see much of his family there. Anyone see Baron?
About Trump's mental illness: I did a deep dive into this subject quite a few years ago (a good source was M. Scott Peck's "People of the Lie . . . ") and reached the irrefutable conclusion that Donald Trump is a malignant narcissist, a particularly dangerous personality type. Many - - - probably most - - - who have made similar studies likely arrived at this conclusion. So then, how did Trump become President again? That's on us, folks. Ignorance is no excuse.: This wasn't a hard call. And it put our nation in peril. We will be lucky to survive this.
He won because retarded racist voters would not vote for a black female. Simple as that.
Even more simple ... he won because a super rich computer freak paid his way and helped eliminate most of the Black vote. I worked in Elections at that time, tech support in two states and know how he did it!
I certainly do not know HOW he did it...am certain in my own heart Musk & his Little Elves played games with the vote count...somehow.
Just IMHO, mind you.
S
Absolutely agree, racism + sexism combined
You are so right, Bob. Trump meets every characteristics for being a narcissistic sociopath. If you look up the developmental characteristics of a 2nd or 3rd grade child you would also see that he depicts the characteristics of one who is stuck in an early state of arrested emotional development that they could not outgrow. Early childhood trauma is a powerful negative developmental force. OMG, our fellow Americans, some with the best of intentions, have placed our country's safety along with our nuclear codes in the hands of an emotionally trapped child in a man's body.
So cogently dx'd , Dr P !! Words we should alll grasp & take to heart
You & Mary are voices in our wilderness of our dispair.
Despite the trump regeims cruel attempts at dumbing down our citizenry... education is still " King ."
I did not vote for Donald, but those who did are the ones who released the Donald monester on the World Stage! Now Congress, the Military and the Supreme Court are to blame for not capturing this Donald Monester and locking him up/Removing him and his side kicks from Governing! Congress and Supreme Court Do Your Constitutional JOBS !!!
Excellent commentary, Bob.!
No one is left to save us
Not on me!! I hate it when people say it's on us, we voted him in. I DID NOT!! i screamed it from the house tops no, I told everyone who would listen exactly what would happen and it is! I asked them why? I told them he had no integrity, morals, credibility, competence. He was a criminal, so very corrupt, a convicted rapist, a felon, a fraud, a liar. I had facts. No one would listen. They all just kept saying what they heard on Fox news. I am not silent and I am active and help where I can to help save our Democracy. I did not vote this joke/nightmare in!😱
It’s on SCOTUS and Musk
Melinda....please don't forget the infamy of Mitch McConnell in stacking the judicial choices for years....various court appointments to pave the way for just what this country is having to painfully...dangerously...suffer through today. Mitch took his thirty pieces of silver to realizes his crowning political dream..stacking the courts with repulsican synchophants. He aided & abetted an incompetent presidential candidate knowingly!.May he ever be judged by his treachery.
I've stopped major network and news in print for that reason. Timid and trying not to offend anyone. Cancelled subscriptions. I read some substack and /Talking Points Memo for real news.
Those brain cells need to rot faster, dang it. Then we can finally watch him go for good.
He has two brain cells and they spend most of their time looking for each other!😂🤣
Right?
😂
I would add " cruelty" to that list.
I agree! After 57 years of professional health systems practice, with decades spent in administration & program development, I am hard pressed to see any signs of emotional maturity, insight, or leadership skills in this pathetic excuse for a man, let alone a president. He is foul-mouthed, cruel, lacking in moral or ethical values, & inconsiderate of others, yet, as is common with many sociopaths, he can be charming when that benefits him. He lacks meaningful vision. He is motivated only by self-agrandizement & enrichment. His proclivity for lying knows no bounds & I'm often hard pressed to see any evidence that he is any longer able to separate facts from his own fantasies. I have transitioned myself to stop thinking of him & his followers as a Party, but rather as a cult with cultivated followers. When viewed through that lens, the chaos in which we are living becomes more understandable ... & even more terrifying!
Quite right Loren. May I recommend you watch Being There starring Peter Sellers. It follows the trajectory of a simpleton who is elevated to President by a wealthy man. It predicted this phenomenon exactly.
Well said!👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌
Well said, thank you.
If he had another brain it would be lonely.
And that is the sad truth…
Loren Sherman, perfectly said 💯🎯...... I feel the same way.
Now is the time for peace
I wonder what the allies and the Hague are thinking of this and maybe tgey will proceed with charges against trump. He must have broken dozens of international laws.
He's the president of peace, they said. Trump will end war, they said.
All conflicts have gotten worse on his watch. What could be dumber than bombing someone while you are having peace negotiations with them?
"Since you refuse to award me the Nobel Peace Prize, I have decided to set the world on fire." - Donald J. Trump
We have a mentally unstable president. I remember the old days when Presidents followed the Constitution and obtained Congressional authorization before starting a stupid war.
This is a clear violation of the constitution and highly dangerous for Trump to have unchecked unilateral powers. Congress must immediately impeach him!
They told me if I voted for Harris we'd end up a needless war. Well, I voted for her, Trump won and guess what... 🙄
This "Don't blame me, I voted for her" hat goes everywhere with me now 👇
https://libtees.dashery.com/products/74030236-dont-blame-me-i-voted-for-harris-hat
Perhaps attempts to Impeach him the 3rd time will do the trick! ☑️👍
He never should have been allowed to be put on the ballot as a Felon for a Presidential Candidate. 31 guilty verdict's by a jury of his peers. How demoralizing for our Country, we we are a laughing stock to the other Countries now!🤡🥸🤣😂
I pray we don't get attacked or dragged into another War in the Middle East provoked by Trump & Netnanyahu!🥷🛩️💣🚀🚢🆘⚓🪖🗡️🔫😔🇮🇷🇺🇲
If you google the term malignant narcissist, you will see this totally describes him and his personality, which is absolutely scary as hell!
Yes. His picture should be included in the description!
His mugshot is malignant
George Conway, the conservative lawyer, continuously refers to Benedict Donald as a malignant narcissist. All of this should have been prevented if the courts and Merrick Garland had been more proficient in moving along his prosecution of this diabolical and despicable tyrant.
I really believe Merrick Garland would have made a wonderful Supreme Court Judge; however, I agree with you William & wonder 'why' he was so lacking in wasting time so that what occurred did & left open for thie man to once again become - sigh - and continue to be "used" in position of President which in sense I see him having 'fun' & playing his games and our Country be ravaged but I hope Congress more accountable & all those within all three Branches going along with this extremely destructive Russel so-author Project 25 put in position to be giving order to this President and he follows other than the fun things he impulsively does. Maybe this is payment he's getting for playing HIS VERY IMPORTANT PART......keep those people separated & stick close to Fox news commentators especially Hannity ? what a PLAN .
There is nothing remotely sane, sensible to nominate a felon. It is far beyond anything rational and it is against all common sense. US 'democracy' is risible and slanted heavily toward rich, racist, old, white, elitist, corporate elites. The slant is so 'heavy' it is almost vertical. Whenever that multi-changed defective Constitution was written, the benefactors were the rich, racist, old, white, elitist plantation and slave owners. "Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose".
Totally agree, but this Congress is impotent and will never impeach their dear leader. Right now, we don’t have a functional congress. Rather they are pathetic with no backbone and no morals. They are a disgrace. The only hope is 2026, but getting a Senate majority will be difficult.
They're just prepping for the day when the Dump decides he doesn't need a Congress, or in the case of a king, a parliament, and tweets to them (he's too chickens**t to tell them to their faces) YOU'RE FIRED.
that's already been proposed & happening Steve. as I earlier posted Russell Vought one of the 2 co-authors of Project 25 & "Chief proponent of the Theory Donald Trump can essentially eliminate CONGRESS role in US Gov't & also defund anything "they say" do do on his own say so. " Congress has already abdicated important constitutional jobs that by Constitution is their responsibility - they in congress abdicated those TO TRUMP....it's already being done Steve. Seems at this point the only people who so far anyway keep this travesty of justice going against those doing such destructive acting out what they are in terrible W A Y are , so far, many of the lower Courts mostly district I think & Trump ET AL especially this ugh VP Vance, DoD Hegseth & Rubio which he really surprised me and so disappointing; he even look like become hardened in his very appearance; at first he looked to me scared in sense but he still went along now? Looks like he's hooked - they speak of wants to impeach those good judges for it ? Congress is more accountable in being complicit to all of this. mess of a PLAN It's really 'scary' & unbelievable truly that they are getting away with it. That's an understatement.
Note this Congress reflects those who voted him in! I do not believe their are enough Psyhchiasts to Treat all those who voted for this Evil Man to be President!
None of those Republican hacks are going to vote to convict!😬
You will be attacked, count on it, and Trump has just dragged you into another war in the Middle East in spite of his promises not to do so. Expect terrorist attacks on your own soil, on your military bases in the Middle East, and massive loss of life. All because your so-called President practices FOMO as a foreign policy and can't let his buddy Putin or Netanyahu have all the fun of blowing things up.
Several states--Colorado and my state of Michigan--reneged on promises not to allow TCF's name to appear on our ballot, because of the U.S. constitution's insurrection prohibition. I wish someone would help me understand why.
Well, soon the Supreme Court will realize that with no constitution, nobody really needs them!!
Israel has no Constitution, and Netanyahu has been busy undermining its Supreme Court... Now Look At Where We Are...
This is how Putin Rules, and how Hitler Ruled!
Not 31 - 34 felony convictions!
Oh I wouldn't count on it!
I think sneak attacks in the US is what Iran will try to do- makes more impact when it's on US soil unfortunately for all the innocent citizens that might be in the way
I think we have been drug into a war with the Middle East already!!
realistically there are only 2 parties that can win or lose in this next 2026 election. I think both of them are W A Y off but in different ways. I had googled for a poll as of today regarding the Democrats as noticed for long time not they polling in the 20;s % which is very 'odd'. Today 21% . I find myself HOPING they wisely are coming up with some reasonable PLAN they will put forth when closer to elections because what they have been showing with only same relative people over and over the only one's to be speaking out and that too is odd when it would seem most all would be doing that so again I only HOPE it's because they are remaining still & will have come up with a good Plan & start perhaps speaking on how THEY could do better concerning all of the issues i.e. especially with our immigrants and Economy .....if they don't then what I'm thinking sadly about them too I don't want to believe is the actual case but it wouldn't surprise me. & then? If i'm not wrong and I hope I am our Country , well....... :-( truly.
We can also blame SCOTUS for the immunity ruling. This is the main reason he has pissed all over the Constitution and is running hot and untethered.
I read that the House Republicans were briefed before the attacks and Democrats were briefed after the attacks. I don't think that the dems were "briefed" per se, I think that they were told it happened and were then told that there is nothing they can do about it. And so far, they have done nothing except strongly worded posts on SM.
Let's not forget Judge Chutjan's (sic) "sentence" of "unconditional release" on his 34 guilty charges. If he had followed up with any form of justice that would apply to any one of us, the malignant maniac would be looking at the world through bars at Riker's Island - if he even lasted that long at the hands of his fellow inmates. I have no doubt that the judge was protecting his family from certain acts of terrorism by the MAGAT enforcers, but the ensuing damage caused to the world at large far outweighs the welfare of the few, who would certainly have qualified for government protection.
On no planet has anyone been put behind bars for what Trump's crimes were
Allow me to correct your typo. It is SCROTUM. A sack that hangs below DJT and moves with him in any direction he takes it.
Oops! My bad. 😆
I will put the blame on auto-correct.
What can they do if the Republican congress persons and the Highest Court sides with Donald Trump, giving him free Reign!
Gosh. It might mean he's in the right
And lower prices, end Gaza in a day and give everyone rainbows 🌈 and unicorns 🦄 and magas fell for it , now it's the big ugly bill to strip away everyone's rights, don't fall for that.
Not to mention ending Ukrane/Russia on day one
😂 you have no idea why he said that do you?
The two presidents who went ahead with attacks without informing or getting approval by Congress are both Republican. Nixon, who widened the Vietnam War by bombing its next door neighbor Cambodia and Ronald Reagan’s little illegal war in El Salvador—financing it by selling weapons to Iran, without Congressional approval. And of course W. Bush and Cheney getting Congressional approval to invade Iraq by lying that Saddam Hussein had nuclear Weapons of Mass Destruction aimed directly at the US. I could go on, but Trump is just using the ever corrupt Republican playbook of acting in defiance of Congress.
Absolutely. We should have waited until the bombed us. There is no reason to have 60% uranium except for weapons. What they claimed it for, 60% isn't needed. Only dirty bombs are. 90 for nukes.
Nice!!
Do we even have any allies left in the world???
You—the people—fighting for your country and for democracy: yes, you have allies. You have the support of all of us who still believe in democratic foundations. I’m German, living in Germany, and many here—especially in the western part of the country—have not forgotten how your nation helped rebuild ours after the war. That bond still means something.
And yet, some of us quietly hope that once this regime is no longer in power, you won’t simply return to business as usual. We hope you’ll finally begin the long-overdue conversation about renewing a Constitution that, as it stands, leaves more than 80% of your citizens out in the cold—while the other 20% keeps dancing, funded by that very exclusion.
We’re watching. We’re hoping. And many of us still believe you can rise to meet the moment.
A lot of us in the US hope we'll begin that conversation about renewing the Constitution. We badly need to address voting rights and all the issues that impede them.
And maybe—finally—make civil and human rights truly inalienable. Not handed out like medals that can be revoked when inconvenient. I’d invite anyone thinking seriously about a constitutional update to start with what’s been standard almost everywhere else for decades—even in countries that aren’t democracies: public healthcare, no child labor, paid sick leave, paid vacation.
And yes, a system that no longer thrives on exploiting 80% of its people so the wealthiest can get even richer—while everyone else wonders how to afford groceries, housing, or medical care.
You’re absolutely right, David. Voting rights matter. And so does the dignity of daily life.
Can't you be arrested for offending someone in Germany?
Heather, I live in Germany and feel really grounded answering this. The short version: no, you don’t get arrested simply for offending someone. That idea floats around a lot internationally and often misses how the legal structure actually works.
There are specific laws around insult or defamation—especially when it involves hate speech, Holocaust denial, or targeted (right-wing )abuse—but these aren’t about protecting someone’s feelings. They’re rooted in protecting human dignity and social peace, especially given our history. They could be violating constitutional frameworks and are criminal offenses, not simple defamations.
People speak freely here. We protest, we criticize, we argue publicly. What’s different is the baseline: rights come with shared responsibility. So speech that incites violence or degrades human dignity (especially toward minorities or historically persecuted groups) has limits. And honestly, that feels like a strength to me—not censorship, just a different center of gravity.
Most notably, the execrable Electoral College!
Thank you. We Americans have an aversion to uncomfortable truths so we replace them with more comfortable theories.
Exactly, Bob. And from here in Germany, it’s striking how often those “more comfortable theories” end up shielding power rather than confronting it. Truth isn’t comfortable—it’s clarifying. And right now, clarity is what we all need most. Thank you for naming it so simply and sharply.
Are you "echt Deutsch" or a U.S. ex-patriot? Your English composition is impeccable.
Bruce, born and still living in Einbeck, Lower Saxony—the town that gave the world strong Bock beer. And thank you. Layers of trauma, some woven into my native German, led me to begin writing here on Substack in September 2024. By now, I write about 90% of everything in English and likely speak more English than German. It’s been deeply healing. And yes—though born German, it often feels as if my heart came wired American.
Thank you. This is the kind of encouragement and support we need at this time. Because every attempt at righting this sinking vessel is complicated by the rodents finding another way to make that crevice harder to mend.
Hey to our friends over in Germany, glad some of you know that many of us are horrified with the menace who occupies the WH, when not on the golf course. Bless you.
no choice really!!
I’m a dual US/UK citizen. Resident in Wales. Brit’s are flummoxed but still our friends.
I'm glad the Brits are still our friends. I like them. I LOVED Queen Elizabeth when I learned about how she'd been a mechanic in WWII, and how she'd scared the pee out of some Arab leader from one of those countries where women aren't allowed to drive, who she took for a ride in her Land Rover, and when I'd heard more generally about her great sense of humor! I love the Mother Country and its people!
Amen from Canada!!
Thank you! I'm very happy to have Canada for a neighboring country! We could learn a lot from our Northern Neighbor!
We like half of the US people for sure!!:)
Diolch yn fawr ., Robin ! Iechyd da 🤗
Writing from New Zealand. We are still allied to all right-thinking, non-racist, non-misogynist, non-anti immigrant, peace loving Americans who are not trump following maga ingrates.
At my guess about 2/3rds of your population. 'Rise like lions from slumber...' (Lord Byron) and end this shit show.
If 2/3s of Americans were as you say, we wouldn't have elected Trump the second time, and probably wouldn't have elected him the first time.
Don’t leave out factor Musk used StarLink and cash to cheat in all swing states listen to trump interviews he won by 1.6% thats crazy no call for recount. I will always feel he never won fairly. To many oddities
Recently, I have read some interesting documentation on methods of cheating that Donald Trump's team took to ensure he would take all of the seven swing states. When you look at the analysis of the election results, it is pretty clear that there had to be musk hijinks to change voting machines, to delete people off of voting registrations… This can all be done from a distance by computer nowadays
You do make a viable point David. Erring to be charitable I can only say voter apathy caused his victory. But then again maybe you are right.
I think Nana, directly above you, makes a valid point.Musk poured money into Trump's campaign, close to $300 million, according to a variety of reputable sources (I just googled).
Kinda Russia, kinda Turkey, kinda North Korea, not China or anyone else that I can think of!
Nope. USA / USA / USA does not deserve allies.
I have lots of friends and colleagues gathered up over 55 years of career and I feel sorry for them. But, the USA nation chose, with eyes wide open, to become the pariah of the planet.
Yes the people of the US do, tRump not so much.
Please don't use Trump's name to create an epithet, which does for the derriere--a body part that's been celebrated in painting and sculpture, and that many of us appreciate--what the c-word does for the female genitals. People should not make epithets out of body parts.
On top of that, there is at least one very good Trump--Mary Trump. Despite being in the same family, she's very much on our side, having written two highly critical books about her uncle.
They're probably thinking " What a damn idiot.....he's let his narcissm out again".
Yes, he's broken God knows how many international laws and has probably knocked any diplomatic solution back to the Stone Age. Making life incredibly difficult for the REAL deal makers.
Also, and also importantly, he's just broken American Constitutional Law by ( virtually) declaring war on another country without getting the approval of Congress. ( literally on his own say so)
Only Congress can declare war and it must be by vote. The President has no such power or ability to LEGALLY commence hostilities without Congressional approval.
This will be a nightmare for America's Supreme Court in a myriad of ways. ( That will be interesting to see how they deal with that can of worms. Let alone the international backlash.).
He needs to be impeached.
ASAP
Tarred and feather, then impeached, still in the orange tr and feathers!!
Not just impeached - fully removed and imprisons along with some of his supporters, many of whom are still in Congress,
Agreed
Agree that our attack was illegal by our own standards.
Impeach him.
tRump owns SCOTUS so he is immune to penalties.
I hope our Supreme Court is not beyond repair. Unfortunately it appears to have gone down a rabbit hole so deeply that it makes it hard to envision them emerging unscathed. It may take a generation or more to establish a Supreme Court worthy of the name, proclaiming in fairness and justice and not seen as having sold itself to the highest bidder. Much like the Republican Party as it exists today.
If the Hague were to charge him and issue a warrant for his arrest, could he be "ICE'd" when he's in Europe in a few days?
Please Please Please!!!!
Only if he's arrested in a nation that's a member of the ICC. Otherwise, there's no extradition from a non-ICC nation because of jurisdiction. They'd have to kidnap him, literally, and bring his vile diapered ass to The Hague.
In what country will he be when he goes to Europe? That will make a big difference as to whether he can be arrested and charged with international war crimes just like his buddy Putin
I'm also wondering if the country that's a member of the ICC would shield the orange Mussolini or not? Would said country permit ICC officers to apprehend the felon in chief, and how would Secret Service handle the issue? Big questions.....
I can only wish! I remember people used to say “someone needs to take one for the greater good” my god I wishful is all can say. I NEVER dislike more of Americans than I do right now!! Article I posted on Blue Sky that shows how many really voted for the idiot in WH 29% voted for dumbass out 340,million 77million voted for the felon! The rest stayed home voted for another, stayed home. I will try to find post on SUBSTACK Now I can’t remember numbers but there was Starlinks at play in several swing states DJT even stated he didn’t need votes if wasn’t for Musk Trump would’ve not won his words.
So bomb threats in GA 3 polling place people could go back to vote. All dem Counties, Tx right before presidential election Tx Corrupt Ken Paxton deleted over 1000+ voter registration saying they were dead or sound illegal. When hundreds started calling wanting to know what happened no good answers. Most horrible thing was his disgusting raids on Latino org head treated 80y old woman with distain by raiding her house at 6am saying she was illegally get voters to register hmm why she help people understand how to file their voters reg no one could vote in American if they we not CITZEN. It’s really unclear why Paxton chose that group who formed in 1960s most like because most might vote Democrat but nothing was ever share. Now Paxton time is up he running for Senate? Wow to replace? Cruz? Comer? Or Crockett he’s been indicted, 8 Tx assist Attorneys filed charges against him it drug on for year then disappeared. Gov is as bad as Paxton these guys don’t win elections they cheat. The entire Tx republicans are as fake and corrupt as djt. It’s sure odd that only Rep win Gov and AG! Cruz was AG boy did Tx make him money. They have no Electric grid that’s why 220 Texan died 1 winter while Cruz flew to Cancun. These republicans are all Corrupt how they get away with it makes me sick. They game is the same Create Chaos and Distractions like thru Obama the hell they gave he and Michelle made angry. They hated he was smart, articulate, knew what he was doing even wearing a tan suit God Forbid. Then Biden same thing now Americans are suffering for Republicans Corruption we will continue until the most corrupt President we’ve ever had in our History why because he can’t take responsible for his action. He will destroy all aspects of his crimes again. Republicans who flew to Hungary in early 2024 should be looked into their actions. I believe DJT is and will continue using ORBANS playbook to become full Dictator unless we stop DJT & VANCE remove both from office. That’s the only way we get out of this mess. I listen to Comey he is right about our agency he cant destroy them as they are made up of Americans most take pride in their work. It creates a culture. Iam pray the core groups of Fed workers stick out for the good of America 🇺🇸 let’s pray. Djt says no wars for last 8 yrs now he’s more power hungry because he know he will dies sooner than later god soon please! 🙏🏻 sorry again side track rant I am worried for my grandkids. My youngest Granddaughter wants to join Air Force. Am scared if this gets worse she has 3 yrs. Just not while evil is taking aim at women in Military
That would be marvelous.
I was just thinking that!
Man, I wish.
Good call out. Time to google foreign press.
Crimes against humanity
Netanyahu and Gallant have been indicted for war crimes by the International Court. They are still at large.
In the case of Netanyahu, being free is a massive burden. When he flies somewhere, he takes twice as long to get there as he must avoid airspace from multiple countries where his plane can be forced to land and he can be arrested. He lives in fear, constantly of being assassinated. Just last week Iran threw a missile through his bedroom window. He wasn't there but they know his location. There are Iranian spies all over Israel, they arrest them as they find them.
I think this is far worse than sitting safe ish in a jail cell. He and his plane is a target at any moment, day or night.
TheHague is a toothless tiger. Long on rhetoric, short on ability to perform or enforce
You are right, Mary. I also feel this is another way to distract us from his “Big Beautiful Bill” which should be front and center right now. This thing must not pass and we must get the word out about how much damage this bill if passed will do to our Country. We must not turn our attention to whatever shiny object he puts out there but use all our energy and resources to beat this bill back. Keep at it Mary, we appreciate you.
I suspect the bill will change to adjust to the reality that we now face. It will be even worse.
Thank you, Mary for your honest insights
The photo shows 4 corrupt, unqualified, illiterate, greedy, disturbed men who have no business making decisions to effect world peace and order. Makes me terrified and sad.
My thoughts exactly the minute I saw the picture!
My thoughts were: 4 idiots, trying to look stately. Didn't work in any way or manner.
I think this is AI. Trump’s face doesn’t look swollen. The a-holes in the back look like they were photoshop
KING should abide by the constitution and stop his one man show. Yes the time needed for congressional approval for war powers is confusing. Who is going to stop him from his “one man show?” This is a democracy not a kingdom. Participation by “ Congress” is a must , in a democracy.
Even in a democracy which has a King as head of state like Great Britain would not allow the King to do what he liked. On the contrary he has to defer to the commons. He does give royal assent to bills passed through Parliament but he can never unilaterally do anything that is not sanctioned by the commons and the Lords
In fact, the power of the King in the UK is entirely ceremonial. Every power (legislative, executive, judicial) is for show and exercised by the Parliament, the PM and their cabinet, the courts.
He has zero power.
great point
Trump can't spell two words correctly, he is a dumb as a toilet brush.
I don't know, my toilet brush gets the job job done, Trump is worthless!😵💫🫣🤥🥴🤪🍊💩
If we are still in a Democracy, why aren't our constitutional laws being used against DJT?
Looks like we could be heading into WW3 very quickly. He's still trying to find a way to receive the Nobel Prize he thinks he deserves, maybe he believes he can start and stop a war and earn that prize somehow. His mind, when it works at all, keeps telling him how great, smart, etc. he is.
In reality , his narcissistic tendencies come out at strange times. Right now his behavior is such that he thinks his powers are absolute and unchallenged by his government and populace. He is so God Damed wrong !!!WW111 is on the horizon, and still thinks he is the absolute leader… with his cabinet and military leaders council kept in the background with no say as to directions. He is a “schmuck.”
We are particularly vulnerable to terrorist attacks because Drumpf got rid of all the experienced leaders in intelligence.
He got rid of everyone
Except the morally challenged synchophants...!
Excellent article, Mary. You are a ray of sanity.
Could someone explain to me what Congress is doing right now. Surely they should be hauling Trump Hegseth and Vance in to explain why this unilateral action came about. It seems to me that the whole republican party goes along with whatever Trump says or does. Which means that they are all culpable for his actions as they have done nothing to rein him in. In the end if Trump was to go Vance would be next and I fear things would get a whole lot worse if that's possible. The whole Republican party should hang their heads in shame
In shame ….. or just hang. Trump will oblige.
😭
Shame? Republicans have shown themselves to have no shame.
Yvette & Elena...
I am so in hope of citizens banding together 4th of July ....millions & millions of us to once again show the World our strength...not our taking a knee to tyranny.in our beloved country. If you are physically able, join in massive groups of PROTEST...NO DESPOTS ! NO KINGS! Most of us are the children ,the grandchildren, et.al of immigrants.
trump has chosen to " forget" that he too is the progeny of immigrants.
We are all in this fight this fight together!
STAY STRONG! STAY SAFE!! STAY PEACEFUL!
NO KINGS! NO DICTATORS!🇺🇸
Exactly, will THIS be the final straw where they will take action? Retaliatory strikes? Full blown war? What will it actually take for Congress (the ENTIRE body of Congree) to finally take action against the Madness of "King" Donald and his regime of imbeciles??
I guess we should just let 9-11 happen again, only this time with Nukes, I do not want that to happen. Three thousand people died and that is just a fraction of what will happen if we are nuked.
I can only say one thing 9-11, I suppose you want that to happen again, I sure do not. We have to do whatever is necessary to prevent such a thing (or worse) from happening. Three thousand people, mostly Americans died in that event, their sacrifice should count for something.
Kissing Trump's... never mind.
Nothing. The Repubs are supporting him, and the Dems are flailing their arms, as usual.
How are we going to survive this mad man!?!?!
Think about how your are going to survive the followers of radical Islam when they come for you. Oh they already have or did you forget 9-11 and the three thousand mostly US citizens who died because as a direct result of the actions of radical Islamists?
Iran did no attack us. We attacked them. All so felon 47 could distract us us from seeing how failed his regime is. Also, for felon 47 to do that is unconstitutional!!
We we attacked on 9-11. As I said before the attack was caused by people who follow radical Islam. The leaders of Iran follow radical Islam. Just like all Nazis are bad, all people who follow radical Islam are bad, I do not care if they come from different countries, they all want to kill me and I am going to defend myself and my family. If they do not hate you then stay out of it, I understand why if you do not feel danger you might not care about other people. So stay out of it. I do not like TRUMP and I did not vote for the man, but a lot of people did, so I have to accept that even though I do not like it. Trump's term will be over and then we can elect a good President, hopefully, but it is not up to just me or you, we live in a democracy and I am thankful for that.
Iran by the way is NOT a democracy. I do no blame the Iranian people they are being persecuted by their leaders and the secret police who will do whatever their leaders tell them to do.
Nothing, nothing trump does ends well for anyone, Including him.
Well, so far he has gotten obscenely rich with all the grifts and merchandise. The under-the-table money must be enormous (bribes for pardons and other backroom deals). I wish he understood that he won't be buried with the money and his NASTY children will just blow it on cocaine and other pastimes of the rich. I truly believe ALL of his children are scum.
Cherie, perfectly said 💯🎯.... and yes, his spawn are pure scum, every single one of them, as is his current wife; Who lied on her application to come here. Yeah, she's a genius and extraordinary talent all right. Just another vile grifter in a dress. 🤮
Even Chicken Little would say this is TOO MUCH!!! After last night's news of the bombing of Iran, I told my husband, "He's gone and done it. ALL OF IT. So, now what?" Everything that Hillary, Kamala, and others said would happen, has. What's Trump planning on doing next? And, what will it take to stop him dead in his tracks?
And yet, a fully qualified, intelligent person , who just happened to be a WOMAN OF COLOR, was denied the Office of the Presidency, because she was a supposed warmonger??
I hope we get to know for sure if she legitimately lost the election. With scum like Musk and Thiel involved, it's really hard to know.
Our dear Madam President. She will ALWAYS be that to me.
He's going to continue to bomb Iran, following in the footsteps Bibi took with the Palestinians. A genocidal war. Given his pathological behavior thus far, this seems a likely direction for him and his cronies.
With the Demented Moron we live in dread of the other shoe dropping. The problem is that he's got an endless supply of footwear.
It's not endless, but it sure feels like it. He's not omnipotent, but it sure feels like he's got too much power, when in reality, it's stolen and, therefore, he won't be able to keep it.
Endless footwear = spineless enablers who have little to no regard for the Rule of Law and stand in the way of progress for the good of all.
For sure, he's got a lot of enablers. It's shocking to see how many. But, again, definitely not endless. They're actually the minority. It's all the stolen resources and "toys" they have at their disposal, at the moment, that makes our task daunting. Many, many will die before this is all said and done, but this fight must be engaged and won by us, The Resistance.
Trump will always have his 33%.
..." everything comes to pass...
...nothing comes to stay "!
IMO...Iran is , in part , due to a badly ego damaged Trump...
his vulnerability after the 14th of June has sharply taken its toll..
In my comments before...other factors may be in play here.
trump today is not the same man who decended. the golden elevator years ago.....79...and failing.
" TIME MARCHES ON." So do the loyalties of those behind the hidden curtain...ie The Heritage Foundation..et al .
Another Luigi. Make that an army of Luigi's.
Every day is another “WTF Day” with this lawless regime. Our Constitution is in shreds on the hallways of Congress and on the floor in front of the Supreme Court Bench. There is no balance of power left. I fear the United States of America is lost, and we may never find it.
Possible. We'll just have to create a new and better, stronger version.
...a more perfect union...
Always remember where this started (really after the election of 1968, in which 3rd party lunatic racist Wallace won 5 states' Electoral College votes). The party embraced the lunatic, ignorant, racist class in order to avoid losing an election due to a 3rd party. Then Bush 1 appointed Thomas to the court. His son appointed Roberts and Alito. Then this scum Trump appointed 3 MORE right-wing scumbags (Kavanaugh being the worst). The party destroyed the integrity and decency of the Supreme Court - and they planned it that way.
Well said, Cherie...
...and the Master manipulator of that evil coup was mitch mc connell ( lower case disdainfully appropriate). ...may he live in infamy.
Donald is a grown infant. He had a thoroughly rotten birthday parade and over 10 million people turned out on the "We Hate Your Guts" protests.
He came right out and said that Tulsi was "wrong". He wanted to strut around like he won, so he staged the attack. Everything that Donald does can be judged by the infant scale. His we-we gets hurt, he'll do something.
Because he is the supposed "President", his infantile turmoil causes problems for us. We can only hope to be able to go about our lives and none of his toys get thrown at us.
Connard a l’Orange will always be a two year old. The problem is that he’s had 77 years of practice and he’s still doing it wrong.
Right on Mary!
Absolute idiot
On point Mary. Well said.
