After ignoring or defending Donald Trump’s every shambolic lie and cranial methane blast over the past five years, Fox News has zeroed in on the real crisis of credibility in our currently reeling republic: Whimsical Time magazine cover drawings.

Trump has likely laundered vast sums, certainly has cheated on taxes and committed bank fraud, and is in hock to many entities who might take their repayments in the form of national security intelligence products or preferential arms sales. Fodder for the next debate and when the counterintelligence investigation post-Mueller...
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...
The Kenosha killer was apparently a Trumpist, and wasn’t immediately arrested, even as the police witnessed several people being shot. Jacob Blake’s assailant has also yet to be arrested. Tucker Carlson weighs in on the side of the 17-year old shooter, pitching for a pardon. x Fox News hosts are...
x Do you think we should tell @DonaldJTrumpJr that thereâÂÂs a typo on his book cover? He means âÂÂthe Democratsâ defense of the indefensible.â pic.twitter.com/SVSEiThDjn— Garrett M.

As weary as we have become with the corruption and venal stupidity, the path to the bunker will feature even more carnage even if Trump is defeated at the polls. Reopening schools is CDC’s “highest risk” for COVID spread which is Trump’s ultimate revenge on the nation when its “second wave”...
Aside from a provocative trip to Tulsa this afternoon, there were many naked attempts to get reelected despite all the criming going on. So many other potential crimes might get covered up by more blatant manipulations. Another Friday evening featured yet another flim-flam, this time with the prosecution of Rudy Giuliani. This...

Trump just removed the Inspector General for the Intelligence Community as reciprocity for his actions in the arms for dirt scandal that led to the impeachment. Even as we’ve seen it all there will be more corruption from the Trump regime only hinted at in the inability to coordinate the COVID-19 response....

All day today I’ve been getting from several Democrats in support of Governor Steve Bullock’s (D. MT) U.S. Senate campaign. Starting with U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D.

Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Bob Casey, Jr. (D. PA) in support of Theresa Greenfield’s (D. IA) U.S. Senate campaign: I want to tell you why Iowa's U.S. Senate race matters so much to me. If we flip just four seats in the U.S. Senate, we'll build a...
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Mazie Hirono (D. HI) in support of Mark Kelly’s (D. AZ) U.S. Senate campaign: Folks, Multiple independent polls show Democrat Mark Kelly pulling ahead of GOP Senator Martha McSally in Arizona — he has a real shot at flipping this seat! Republicans are...

Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley (D. OR) on behalf of Democracy for America: The recent impeachment trial was a farce: when we were tasked with trying Donald Trump’s impeachment, Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans denied us access to witnesses and documents. Instead of a full and...

Man-child wreaks revenge by reassigning WH and NSC personnel in anticipation of the next outrage.

Even as Susan Collins and perhaps Lisa Murkowski votes for witnesses, there will be an eventual vote against conviction and then the cover-up begins. x “It's not a real trial and it's not a real exoneration,” @KirstenPowers says. “And it's a cover-up,” @CarlBernstein adds. “That's what the Senate has now...
Kudos to Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo for highlighting this: Much of the commentary about the witnesses question has assumed that there are a half dozen or so so-called Republican moderates up for reelection in November and that the outcome of the trial will be determined by whether members...

The longtime Republican Senator from South Carolina had very different feelings about impeachment...
The opening of the Senate trial at 1 pm ET will be more interesting if only because the WH defense team will try their hardest to avoid any mention of John Bolton. Television coverage that started at 10 am ET mentions the importance of the GOP Senator lunch prior to the...
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D. NY) in support of Sara Gideon’s (D. ME) U.S. Senate campaign: Sara Gideon (D. ME) Every senator swore an oath to be impartial at the start of the Senate impeachment trial. It’s one I take seriously, and I would hope...
OK, it’s not Kabuki as much as it is Shadow Puppetry. What makes anyone think Trump won’t run to court to get an injunction against Bolton, claiming executive privilege and national security, if Bolton receives a subpoena? Any competent court would rule against Trump, but Trump would appeal. That litigation...
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...

In the tradition of Trump putting fake Time magazine covers of his face in his golf resorts, his campaign decided to indulge their propaganda jones. Trump also tried to bully Thunberg in a tweet today. President Trump's reelection campaign on Thursday tweeted an edited cover of Time magazine's “Person of...
When Trump associates get caught talking to the Russians, the excuse du jour is that they were talking about “Syria” and military cooperation in Syria. Remember the non-denial-denial excuse floated for Kushner’s attempts to hide his Russian talks on Russian secure lines? President Donald Trump's son-in-law and now top White...
