Among of the most predictable character traits of the Malignant Mangoface are these: He is petty, he hates being a loser, and he absolutely has to be the center of attention. All of these are prominent in his latest move against President-elect Joe Biden: Trump considering kicking off 2024 run during Biden's inauguration: report Two…

McConnell is Driving a Bus Toward Trump
Moscow Mitch is many things, most of them venal, but stupid isn’t one of them. He’s made no bones about wearing a mask, and being seen wearing a mask. He’s almost 80 and doesn’t want to risk his health (or the health of anyone in his caucus, at least). Now we learn his risk-avoidance measures…
The woman he may pick could paint the SC orange to hide the work of RBG. It must be stopped.
My sympathies to the family of Justice Gingsburg’s family. My further sympathies for our daughters and granddaughters, POC and the disabled. Meet Barbara Lagoa: He and DeSantis working hand in hand on this one. She is a real piece of work regarding voting rights. slate.com/… One of Trump’s Top SCOTUS Candidates Thinks Poll Taxes Are…
Trump's new Chant…Total disrespect for someone not even laid to rest. It's Fill that Seat !
x Crowd in North Carolina chants: “FILL THAT SEAT!” pic.twitter.com/RuOI6vpK9u— Team Trump (Text VOTE to 88022) (@TeamTrump) September 19, 2020 Are you angry yet? I hope so. We must block the republicans from stealing the election with a packed court. I think we need to get even more voters out and I am depending on…
Perdue (R-GA) May Be McConnell's First Falling Domino
Back in July, Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman had a story that Trump knew he was in trouble: “What Do I Do? What Do I Do?”: Trump Desperate, Despondent as Numbers Crater, “Loser” Label Looms. Down at the end was this tidbit: Nervous Republicans worried about losing the Senate are now debating when to break from…
Obama is Baiting Trump
Two columns and a Facebook post caught my attention this morning: Obama Lives in Trump’s Head by Charles Blow (NYT) This is why Trump is back to attacking Obama by Jennifer Rubin (WaPo) Obama is a master of strategy by David Gerrold (Facebook) The gist of all three is that Obama is still getting under…
Do You Suppose McConnell Asked His Wife?
In the last day or so, Moscow Mitch has been trying to help Trump shift the blame for the coronavirus to the Obama administration by claiming that they didn’t leave them any kind of pandemic game plan. As we all know (those of us outside the Fox/OANN bubble), Obama not only left them a game…
Mitch McConnell is actually proposing the most massive tax increases in U.S. history
In “Why Mitch McConnell’s State Bankruptcy Idea Is So Stupid,” Josh Barro makes a very important and elemental point about Mitch McConnell’s proposal to let states go bankrupt. Bankruptcy is only available to those who are insolvent – and no state is even close to insolvency because they have the power to tax. Right? A bankruptcy court cannot…
J. Rubin Wants to Demolish the GOP [Edit w Message About Dumping on Rubin]
I used to dislike Rubin a lot when she was supporting Mitt Romney in 2012 and generally blasting Democrats and sniping at Barack Obama his entire presidency (and after). But I’ve watched her over the last few years go from being a GOP loyalist to lamenting to resisting to rejecting what it has become. This…
How Many Bidens Does it Take to Get a Bolton?
New story up from the Washington Post: Senate Democrats privately mull witness trade in impeachment trial: A Biden for Bolton Several Senate Democrats are privately discussing the possibility of calling Republicans’ bluff on witnesses, weighing an unusual trade in President Trump’s impeachment trial: the testimony of Hunter Biden for the testimony of a key administration…
Trump's Is an Incompetent Crook – and That Makes it Worse
The mess we’re in didn’t start with IMPOTUS. The GOP and the 1% have been working for years to turn our democracy into an oligarchy where the rule of law is at best a platitude that they pay lip service to. Their plan has always been to keep the Republican party in power and keep…
Breaking: McConnell Reveals Rules to Keep the Trial a Sham
McConnell lays out ground rules for Trump’s impeachment trial and compressed schedule to consider the charges In a four-page resolution, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said the opening arguments would begin at 1 p.m. on Wednesday, with each side given 24 hours to present their case over a two-day period. The Senate will vote…
Pelosi needs to inform Moscow Mitch that Articles will arrive “imminently” and wait 310 days
Since the concept of imminent has become stretched, so should that compliance, if only to make Moscow Mitch sweat, since it appears that he’ll do whatever he pleases. “Imminent” means something, something to Mike Pompeo and that rule should apply. Speaker Pelosi simply needs to delay long enough to not let Trump spike the ball…
Trump Wants House Clowns on His Impeachment Defense Team
WaPo Politics has a new story out: GOP leaders spar over adding House members to Trump’s impeachment defense team A turf war over who should defend President Trump in a Senate impeachment trial is raging behind the scenes in Congress, as House Republicans push to join Trump’s legal team — an idea that piques the…
Pelosi is Using Chinese Water Torture on Trump
The big story right now is about the unredacted memos that Kate Brannan at Just Security just got hold of. Included in them is the previously redacted message from OMB associate director Mike Duffey to Elaine McCusker at DOD, sent the day after Bolton, Pompeo, and Esper all met with Trump to try to get…
The Subtle Speaker Strikes Again
Speaker Nancy Pelosi chooses her words very carefully. It may not have gotten much attention in all the shouting today, but when she said she might hold up sending the Articles to the Senate, she did NOT make that contingent on there being a fair trial. Roll Call reports on her statement last night: The…
McConnell Defies Trump
Politico reported this about an hour ago: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell made clear on Tuesday that Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s pick for a Senate seat will have the full backing of the Republican establishment, sending a clear message that anyone who challenges Kelly Loeffler will face the full weight of the GOP machine. Further……
Republicans Are Disgusted – But Silently
There have been several stories lately about how disgusted Congressional Republicans have become over Trump. The latest is a CNN report this morning on Charlie Dent, former R-PA: Ex-GOP House Member Reveals What Republican Lawmakers Say About Donald Trump In Private Ex-Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.) acknowledged in an interview on “CNN Newsroom” that Republicans are…
A Secret Senate Vote on Impeachment?
Juleanna Glover offers a surprising scenario in Politico Magazine: There’s a Surprisingly Plausible Path to Removing Trump From Office. (She was an adviser to George W. Bush, among other Republicans.) She argues that there’s nothing in the Senate rules that prevents it from requiring a secret vote on impeachment, and all it would take is…
