MAGA?

Alternative facts? How about Alternative Acronyms? In a week, I hope we can change the “Make” to “Made”.

Show the Fuck Up

Jim Wright (of Stonekettle Station) published this on Twitter today: Physical therapy this morning, 30 minutes into a treadmill that’s kicking my ass, doctor comes in: “I see you’re a political writer. What do you think is going to happen when Trump wins? You think there’s going to be violence from these far-left liberals?” Blood […]

Eject!

I’m always amazed at how much attention the rest of the world gives to US politics, especially considering how little attention Americans pay to the rest of the world. Here’s a comic from a Portuguese artist. I especially like how a mask is being used to eject Donald Trump. If the pandemic is the reason […]

Undecided Voters

This must be what Americans look like to the rest of the world.

Trump’s Covid-19

I don’t normally post things sent to me, but this illustrated timeline of Trump’s lies about the coronavirus by Noreen Graf is definitely worth sharing.

Your Vote!

Back in April, I posted “Vote Him Away (The Liar Tweets Tonight)” by Roy Zimmerman. Here’s a new song from him, performed virtually with some friends: Remember to vote, the sooner the better.

Borat Strikes Again!

Just when you think that this election can’t get any more insane, Sacha Baron Cohen releases a new movie, “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm“. In it is a scene where Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani has an “indiscreet encounter” in a hotel room with a young actress playing Borat’s daughter. In the film, released on Friday, […]

Losing

You know you are in trouble when even your own lawyers don’t like you. Lawyers at Jones Day, which has earned millions as outside counsel to President Trump’s re-election campaign, have donated nearly $90,000 to the campaign committee of Trump’s Democratic rival Joe Biden. Contributions to the Trump campaign by Jones Day lawyers totaled just […]

Two Weeks!

The election happens in two weeks. Maybe, if we are lucky, we will know the results within two weeks after that. Republicans are starting to flee Trumpism, sensing that their leader has become a loser. Some of them, like John Cornyn, are shooting themselves in the foot doing it. I, for one, am looking forward […]

Going to the Dogs

Trump is the first president in over a century who doesn’t have a dog. What I want to know is, in the clip of Trump saying he doesn’t want a dog, why are all those supporters clapping?

Sacha Baron Cohen, Seriously

There is an interesting article in Time Magazine by Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat, Ali G, etc.) titled “We Must Save Democracy from Conspiracies”. Here’s a sample: Using unhinged lies and conspiracies to gain power and subjugate others is, of course, nothing new. The blood libel—the myth that Jews murdered Christian children and used their blood […]

What are you voting for?

There are so many reasons to vote during this presidential election. Which of these are included in your reasons?

Closing Argument

I love hearing Michelle Obama speak. Listening to someone who actually understands and believes what they are talking about (without any overriding political agenda) is so refreshing. Yes, I know a 24-minute video is way too long for our short-attention-span world. But I’m posting this only because you might have noticed this video, but not […]

Trump is a SuperSpreader

I hope everyone notes that Hope Hicks was showing symptoms of Covid-19 and was diagnosed Wednesday night. She had been in frequent close contact with Donald Trump. But did Trump quarantine himself? I’ll give you one guess. According to WaPo, on Thursday “Trump and his entourage flew to New Jersey, where he attended a fundraiser […]

Fanatics

It seems clear that only fanatics or people who are desperate for a job will work for Donald Trump. Here is documentation that all four of the people in this comic are unhinged religious fanatics: Bill Barr — “The attorney general believes the Christian hegemony is essential to American democracy, and wants to leverage state […]
