ashamed
Paraphrasing Pvt. Sam Watkins, 1st Tennessee, Co. H. ‘America has no north, no south, no east, no west,’ those words could apply to the pandemic. Watkins was lamenting brother against brother killing each other in the American Civil War. All of America is watching the unvaccinated kill each other and...
Democrats: Can you believe General Milley is such a bootlicker for Trump? Republicans: Black Lives Matter? Democrats: Can you believe how General Milley stood up for freedom of speech? Republicans: Black Lives Matter? Democrats: Liz Cheney is hurting America Republicans: Black Lives Matter? Democrats: That Liz Cheney has integrity Republicans:...
MFP is neologisms that get sticky. Cheugy is the latest, being a term that Generation Z calls Millennials, perhaps it’s the revival of more postmodernism. Generation Z consumer-brand attacks on Millennials consumption habits may be all that Gheugy is about. Proud Boys and their golf polos may be Cheugy, if only...
It’s a sign of the times that Liz Cheney had to explain herself: I disagree strongly w/@JoeBiden policies, but when the President reaches out to greet me in the chamber of the US House of Representatives, I will always respond in a civil, respectful & dignified way. We’re different political...
So this morning, Melania Trump helpfully pointed out to all us plebs who the real victim of the assault on the Capitol is: Melania Trump. That’s no surprise. Trumps are always victims—of the whiniest sort. If Donald Trump ever sincerely took responsibility for anything, I’d start checking random D.C. basements...
Trump is once again asking the Supreme Court (PDF) to overturn the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s multiple rulings on the mail-in ballots in the election. Rick Hasen on Election Law blog said that the petition was ridiculous, that John Eastman should be ashamed of himself, and that the petition’s citing to...
The Kraken Caucus makes itself known. GOP sedition messaging harkens back to the 19th Century, except Trump's lost cause won't rise again. This time it’s not a Brooks Brothers Riot but pseudo-secessionist displays. “Trump can't handle the concept of the label 'loser'” as he pimps a 'seditious abuse of justice', and Jake Tapper...
On Thursday night, Matt Gaetz and his plus-one (i.e., his giant fucking head) attended a Young Republicans gala in Jersey City, New Jersey. Needless to say, the event was held in defiance of social-distancing rules, and the participants were photographed indoors, in close proximity to each other, and without masks. This...
The newest shield for racism, sexism, and just poor behavior is a new set of buzz words. Instead of facing the truth about systemic racism, the words ‘Race Card’ become a shield. Instead of answering for blatant sexism, we say ‘PC culture’ is overtaking us. And for pure bad behavior,...
So you remember that big Pebble Mine scandal that U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R. AK) got busted in? Here’s a click reminder: x YouTube Video Dr. Al Gross, a Democratic-aligned independent running to unseat Sullivan, had been, even before the recording, blasting Sullivan for failing to explicitly oppose the mine’s...
There are many on here who are people of faith and many who are not but maybe some needing hope and encouragement and are in confusion will read my prayer in the Christian faith who will see truth and maybe some blindly in the cult off this site will read...
Here’s the latest news today out of North Carolina courtesy of Monmouth University’s latest poll: The Monmouth University Poll finds North Carolina’s U.S. Senate election has shifted in the Democrat’s favor since last month. Among registered voters, challenger Cal Cunningham has 48% support and first-term Republican incumbent Thom Tillis has...
Saturday as I watched 10 white coats appear in front of a mic looking professional I began thinking about equal justice as I thought this. How can anyone vote for a 10 to 0 medical care in America and feel any moral pride or anything but selfish and ashamed? As those doctors...
So this has been one of the best backstories for a candidate: x .@SenDanSullivan works for #MitchMcConnell – he votes Mitch’s way 97% of the time. I’m a different kind of candidate – one who will always put #Alaska first. Watch our first TV ad and chip in to help...
First, from The Washington Post: Mining executive Tom Collier, who boasted in secretly taped conversations that he had leveraged his ties to Republican officials to advance a controversial project in Alaska, resigned Wednesday. Collier, CEO of the Pebble Limited Partnership, offered his resignation a day after the group Environmental Investigation...
That’s pathetic: The Texans for a Conservative Majority, a political action committee that supported other Republican super PACs, superimposed a photo of Democrat MJ Hegar on a dark background with the caption, “HARD LEFT HEGAR.” The photo, which was noticeably featured at the top of the group's website, shows the...
PPP’s latest poll decided to test how voters in the home towns of Joe Biden and Donald Trump feel about the candidates: Last week Donald Trump claimed that Joe Biden had abandoned Scranton, so we thought it would be interesting to do a poll of voters in Scranton to see...
Received this e-mail yesterday from Mike Espy’s (D. MS) U.S. Senate campaign: I must admit that I am a little ashamed that I am writing you an email about making lynching a federal crime in the year 2020. I believe this is something that should have been in place a long...
I knew this would happen. Knew it, knew it, knew it. Because Donald Trump’s clear penchant for racism, misogyny, perversion, incompetence, buffoonery, and just plain evil is no longer news, we’re apparently going to put Joe Biden under a microscope and parse every word he utters that isn’t meticulously scripted...
To be clear, I do not condone this. Not at all. And, unlike Trump, if someone came to me with this kind of information, I’d contact the FBI immediately — not say, “I love it, especially later in the summer.” Because, you know, I’m a real American with real American values,...
Oh, hell no. Stephen Moore, the crank economist who thinks tax cuts are the medicine for whatever ails you, is planning a “drive-in” protest against Wisconsin’s Safer at Home policy, and he’s making a comparison that’s, well, pretty fucking offensive. Politico: “They’re going to shut down the Capitol — shh,...
On the heels of his friend Rodney Howard-Browne’s arrest for defying orders against hosting large gatherings, evangelist Jonathan Shuttlesworth is defying orders against hosting large gatherings. Howard-Browne was arrested yesterday for refusing to close his Tampa, Florida, megachurch even as the deadly coronavirus continues to circulate throughout the country, presumably...
Wait, you mean HE WHO CANNOT BE NAMED?!?!?!?!? We’ve now reached Beyond Parody 2.0, folks. Or maybe Irony Is Dead Cubed. x Mulvaney says the press ought to be covering TrumpâÂÂs relationship with his teenage son more. One of the few things that is agreed upon about the press corps...

It was the same thing, Trump stands with the Russians and fails to acknowledge accountability for the revenge tour. CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta again traded verbal blows with President Donald Trump during a news conference in New Delhi on Tuesday. The fiery exchange saw Acosta tell Trump that CNN’s “record on...
I am ashamed to say, though I never use the term, that I did not recognize this earlier. I had the realization from a comment on another thread in which the individual said their adult children became angry and hurt when they heard this term. The same thing is true...
This is absolutely sickening. thehill.com/… The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) will host a performance later this month of a play based on the texts sent between a former lawyer and agent at the FBI who are regularly ridiculed by President Trump. “FBI Lovebirds: UnderCovers” will be formed at the...
Bernie Sander's surrogate Nina Turner did not let MSNBC pundit Jason Johnson get away with challenging her notion that Mike Bloomberg is an oligarch buying his way into the Democratic Presidential Election. x x YouTube Video MSNBC’s Chris Matthews interviewed Bernie Sanders’ spokesperson Nina Turner during the initial stages of the...
There has been a lot of flack from IMPOTUSies these past few days about how the Democrats “love terrorists” and “hate America.” Sen. Tammy Duckworth gave what in any normal universe would be an unanswerable response: ‘I left parts of my body in Iraq’: Duckworth rejects GOP claim that Democrats...
While I grateful that Democrat Andy Beshear beat the corrupt Republican Governor Matt Bevin, Kentucky voters elected one of Moscow Mitch’s political cronies as state attorney general — one Daniel Cameron. When asked by the Courier-Journal if Cameron would investigate Bevin’s pardonfest, Cameron was Sphinxlike in his response: FRANKFORT — Freshly...
A couple of weeks ago, I had a diary up here: We're Being Ruled by Sadists. Now, I can’t claim that Paul Krugman reads my diaries, much less is inspired by them, but he said pretty much the same thing in his column this morning: The Cruelty of a Trump...
This is shameless. Somehow, the president of the United States jealously attacking a 16-year-old girl by insisting (with a signature projection-y flair) that she needs anger management classes is not as bad as simply mentioning that the pr*sident has a kid, and his name is Barron. But the hypocrisy was too...

If you believe that Individual-1 has altruistically helped the US stock market since inauguration, you might believe we Democrats worship Moloch, just like we treat the free market like Baal or so many pagan idols.

Even Jonathan Swift, on his best day, couldn’t make this sh** up, a *Resident of the United States, in the wee hours of the AM, fuming that a news outlet accuses him of misspelling while simultaneously misspelling a rather easily spelled word and misidentifying basic punctuation marks. x To show...
To many, Omaha Nebraska is where you could buy insurance from the company that sponsored the Wild Kingdom TV show. Henry Fonda and Johny Carson were from Omaha. The liberal billionaire, “Oracle” Warren Buffet, lives in Omaha. Yet for 50 years, Omaha also became the most segregated city in the US,...
Larry, an AK-47 touting Right-Wing Conservative found Politics Done Right and has become a regular listener to this very Progressive show.

The world champion U.S. women’s soccer team is fast becoming the Dixie Chicks of 2019 — and I love them for it. But not everyone is so inspired. Take Fox News, for example. To paraphrase the Chicks’ Natalie Maines, I’m ashamed that the president of the United States is from...
