One of the more despicable senators in the US Senate now acknowledges that climate change is real after four years of kissing Trump’s ass as the know-nothing did all he could do to derail the fight against climate change and kill life on the planet. Better late than never, but words...

I love dogs. I didn’t used to. My wife had dogs when we started dating, and I came to love the little monsters. Now it’s hard to imagine a life without a furry friend/fiend. So when I found out dogs would be returning to the White House after a four-year hiatus,...

Remember when Brett Kavanaugh was embroiled in controversy during his Supreme Court confirmation hearing and we all thought the powerful and seismic testimony of Christine Blasey Ford would move the needle, but then Lindsey Graham started screaming his head off like an absinthe-besotted wood elf, Kavanaugh did his whole oppressed...
Is Lindsey Graham for real? No, that’s a serious question. Because he looks like a Rankin-Bass Claymation character to me. Lindsey, the misfit Christmas elf who never liked to make toys and forgot to show up for elf practice because his real dream was to loofah Donald Trump’s hide so he’d stop looking...
Apparently Lindsey Graham was none too concerned about the galaxy-sized gap in our nation’s credibility after he voted to acquit Donald John Trump—twice—of eminently impeachable offenses. Moreover, he’s not terribly concerned about gaps in health coverage, or in our previous pr*sident’s response to COVID-19. Though he does appear determined to...
The result of the latest Trump impeachment trial was a fait accompli when Mike Pence was pulled from his mother’s womb, saw his shadow, and scurried back home like a frightened baby wallaby for six more weeks of gestation. The evidence now makes it abundantly clear that Donald Trump incited...
The WaPo is reporting that the Senate will call wtinesses: The Senate voted Saturday to call witnesses in Trump’s Senate impeachment trial, in a surprise move that comes one day after a Republican congresswoman’s account of the former president’s actions on Jan. 6 received national attention. Lead impeachment manager Rep....
Response to all the comments below that the Dems “caved”: The House managers really only wanted one witness: Herrera-Beutler, who could testify what Trump told McCarthy — VERY damaging testimony. Herrera-Beutler’s report on that was entered into the record and Trump’s lawyers stipulated to it. That’s what they wanted and...
On the evening of January 6, in the aftermath of the Capitol riots, Donald Trump’s fave toady, Lindsey Graham, said this: “All I can say is, count me out. Enough is enough. … It is over.” To me that sounded like this unabashed lickspittle was giving up either the lick...
Schaden-Friday is a bit lower-key this week, thanks to our being collectively terrorized by the Ocher Uprising. But that doesn’t mean it’s canceled. Schaden-Friday is never canceled. And this week we have a doozy. Trump supporters shouting at Lindsey Graham after he failed to pull another Trump term out of...
It’s always been obvious to people with more than a cursory understanding of politics that Republicans only pretend to care about working people and small business owners. They accomplish this by endlessly flogging cultural wedge issues like abortion, gun rights, LGBTQ rights, and perceived Christian “persecution” — while at the same...
You may know Lindsey Graham as one of Donald Trump’s favorite — and most expendable — colon polyps. But there was a time he pretended to be a senator … with his own opinions and everything. When he ran against Donald Trump for the GOP presidential nomination, he was among the...
Oh, Lindsey. What in God’s name are you up to? First of all, Donald Trump needs to overturn the results in more than one state. Flipping Georgia isn’t going to do anything. This is like trying to rig the lottery so you get two of the winning numbers ahead of...
In the midst of increased voting plurality is this also true: “Trump appears to also have increased strength among rural Black voters across the ‘Black Belt.’” Will that then also reveal itself in the Georgia special US Senate election on 5 January. x REUTERS/IPSOS POLL: About 80% of Americans, including...
Sen. Lindsey Graham (T-SC) (T for Trump) spilled the beans in his opening statement at the Barrett confirmation hearing. Judges and justices are supposed to be vetted for their qualifications to serve, and for their positions on Constitutional theory, and things like that. They don’t get asked how they would...
The GOP Senate mischief continues, as the GOP’s rush to endanger the women’s health of at least 17 states and 30 million people also continues. x Democratic vice-presidential candidate Sen.

Jennifer Rubin is a longtime NeverTrumper member of the marginally sane community. She’s one of The Washington Post’s conservative writers, but when she decided to side with common sense over Trumpite servility, she became an apostate in the eyes of many of her fellow travelers. Importantly, she pushed away from the...
Donald Trump’s mewling vestigial twin Lindsey Graham has been whining about how his Democratic Senate opponent, Jaime Harrison, is “killing” him financially.

Doing his best Droopy Dog on indica brownies impression, Lindsey Graham appeared on Sean Hannity’s Fox unreality show last night to whine about a future dystopian America where the people actually elect the president, Democrats change the rules to counter Republicans’ brazen and arbitrary rule-changing, and a U.S. territory with more people than...
Last night and this morning, I felt like crawling into a hole for the next 40 days or so. And not a deep hole. I didn’t have the energy or joie de vivre for a deep hole. It would have been a shallow hole. Barely a hole at all. Really,...
What’s the old saying? When you live in Donald Trump’s sigmoid colon, you shouldn’t throw stones? Something like that. Lindsey Graham insisted that his Democratic opponent, Jaime Harrison, release his tax returns. Harrison waited a few days and then delivered this zinger: x Done. Now do President Trump. https://t.co/dphjGfMY6R— Jaime Harrison...

That is the last line of another devastating new ad from the Lincoln Project, this time on Trumps (lack of) response to Covid-19. There are lots of terrific oneline takeaways in the ad, as you will see when you watch it. Which you should. And you should share. Lincoln Project...
Looks like “Leningrad Lindsey” Graham may be setting up a trap — for himself: Sen. Graham says Mueller may be invited to testify in wake of op-ed on Trump’s commutation of Stone sentence Actually, that’s “will,” not “may”: “Apparently Mr. Mueller is willing — and also capable — of defending...
In a new ad whose tag line is “Learn. Their. Names.” It goes after McConnell, Graham, Tillis, Gardner, McSally, Cruz, Ernst, Rubio, Collins, Daines, Cotton…. (Yeah, I know, the picture I used lacks the two not running as welll as Daines and Cotton and has the two from Georgia who...
Will possibly outting Lindsey Graham hurt his reelection chances this year? My extremely jaded, cynical view says “No.” It seems to be an open secret that Graham is gay, or so we are told from some who live in SC. Therefore, if most SC voters know but keep voting for...
Can you stand — or even recognize — a post that has nothing to do with either coronavirus or police brutality? (It may be tangentially related. If those other phenomena are the first and second horses of the apocalypse, at the very least this is a palomino pony.) OH MY GOD....
Trump’s hatred of Barack Obama is long and well-documented, from his attempts to find the “real birth certificate” to his dismantling of anything Obama had accomplished just because it was Obama who had done it. Trump’s insistence that his inaugural crowd was larger than Obama’s set the tone for his...
From TPM: Graham Worries Georgia’s Reopening Is ‘Going Too Fast Too Soon’ We respect Georgia's right to determine its own fate, but we are all in this together.

It may be irony, schadenfreude or coincidence but we are crossing paths at the intersection of politics and Marvel or DC Comics. We have a blustering Joker as Head of State, Mr. Freeze as his second, and an assortment of Two-faces, Riddlers and a top-hatted Penguin seeking to avoid his...
With all due respect to Pete Wehner, an evangelical Christian, former George W. Bush White House aide, and the author of the above quote, this analogy undersells Donald Trump’s depravity by a damn stretch. A person born blind would surely be curious about what color is. Further, he or she wouldn’t scorn...
Hey, at least these bizarre Team Trump unis aren’t tan, because that would be an outrage. Nothing says fiercely independent like advertising Trump-branded merchandise on national television. It would be just slightly more dignified if Lindsey Graham and Mark Meadows tried to rope Brian Kilmeade into selling Herbalife to his friends...
Wait, didn’t we just have a big impeachment trial over this? Oh, never mind. The culprits got away with it. Of course, this is a little like going back to the bank you robbed in broad daylight to collect the tellers’ wallets. The Department of “Justice” has created an official...
I’m not a lawyer nor a constitutional scholar, but the Media has not being doing its job when it comes to covering the upcoming Senate trial of Trump. I know. “A real shocker there Merlin. Have you thought about auditioning for the role of Captain Obvious?” Hear me out for...
We’ve all puzzled and puzzled till our puzzlers were sore about what the hell happened to Lindsey Graham. The guy who used to kind of make sense (at least compared to the other troglo-dipshits in the GOP) appears to have made a complete 180 from the lofty, rarefied principles of his longtime...
Trump continues to service Russia and support the “dirt on Biden” quest, whining that it doesn’t feel like he’s been impeached. Because shaking down the Ukrainian president isn’t violating bribery and extortion statutes even if Congressional aid was worth $391 million in announcing investigations. If only Zelensky had been found having sexy...

#LeningradLindsey wants to do a solid for Rudy Colludy, more likely because it will make for good television. It could be yet another sideshow of disinformation distraction for Trump. Is this a stunt-like announcement for an appearance that will self-cancel because Rudy will have to testify under oath. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.)...
It’s more telling that Lindsey Graham actually believed the “Golden Showers” report in his first reading of the Steele Dossier, that the Russians had something on Trump. It’s still a process complaint, but the facts are still there, despite GOP hand-waving or table-pounding. Today’s Senate Judiciary committee hearing showed that there...
They’re now trial ballooning damage control measures, perhaps there will be a wrist slap by the Senate where the vulnerable 2020 GOP senators will call for a censure. The GOP media frame would then be “compromise and comity” because “no harm, no foul” (which unfortunately also assumes “no Constitution”). So, they...
Alan He of CBS News has written a tweet quoting Lindsey Graham. Lindsey is attempting to hoodwink Democrats that censure might be an option to attract bipartisanship support rather than Impeachment of Donald Trump. Can anybody say “Lucy with the football”? x Q. Censure better outcome than impeachment? GRAHAM: “…Who...
Joe Biden needs an intervention or a come to Jesus moment when it comes to his Republican “friends.” Trump’s Senate Impeachment Defense Will Be to Put Joe Biden on Trial. There’s every reason to believe Trump will try to mount an extended attack on Biden as part of his defense...
I wondered what all that BS was about Trump wanting the Senate Republicans to fight. Trump wants the Senate Republicans to basically throw show trials about Democratic wrongdoings in order to defend Trump from impeachment. “Senate Republicans don't have to defend Trump on everything, they just have to do their...
Maybe Lindsey’s idea to convert himself into Trump’s boot licker wasn’t such a hot idea idea after all. Although Lindsey Graham is still currently the favorite to win in this safe Trump state, he is trending downward after several major embarrassments. On the flip side, Democratic challenger Jamie Harrison has been steadily...
When Graham managed the Clinton impeachment, secondhand information from Linda Tripp was a premise, because she wasn’t present when sexy times occurred in the WH.
