Trump Suffers Massive Ego Hemorrhage, Gives Thanks for 'Magnificent Compliment' He Gave Himself

Whenever Donald Trump perceives his public image being damaged by the copious quantities of personal problems for which he is largely the cause, he resorts to praising himself with fake flattery because, in his nakedly narcissistic fog, he can't find anyone else to do it.

What could be funnier than Trump refusing to pay Rudy when the poor sap needs him the most?

So Rudy “Up From His Head Come a Bubblin’ Crude” Giuliani, who represented Donald Trump in his effort to overturn the 2020 election, is now learning where Trump’s loyalties really lie—i.e., with the Adderall fairies whispering in his ear 24/7 about the impudent hobgoblins trying steal his pouch of magic beans. Uh, Donald...

self-ownage: Jordan Peterson probably thinks a Red Skull comic is about him

You’d think that a scholar in psychology, however flawed, would understand projection, and that fascism is more than making trains run on time, even when they didn’t. Hail Hydra, because parody is meta-criticism and perhaps we’ll see some plagiarism lawfare over self-help brand infringement. Apparently Jordan Peterson got offended that...

Fox News and Greg Gutfeld apparently believes he’s funny enough to go up against late night comedy programming.

Anti-Capitalist MeetUp Open Thread

I recently came across a typical Twitter argument about the CIA promoting modern art as propaganda. The usual distorting tweet-discourse occurred but what remained are somewhat paranoid discussions of whether the CIA supported Modern Art. They really didn’t, as much as they supported US propaganda in general. The argument about CIA and Art evolved...

Donald Trump’s 10 most pathetically predictable broken promises

Donald Trump

During the 2016 presidential campaign, Republican Donald Trump presented a unique conundrum for the public and pundits alike. Simply put, Trump lied at a rate never before seen in modern American politics. No candidate in the 21st century, from either party, even came close. Writing in The Atlantic that September,...
