I have always considered it the greatest irony of the Era of Trump that he claims that the mainstream media is “against” him. No. They underplay his awfulness and normalize him, or “sanewash” him, which is a term of art coined during the 2024 election to describe how the media excuses Trump’s excesses and abnormalities. They played him for ratings in 2016, to their dismay, and now he’s out to destroy the free press.
Joe Biden was crucified for anything he did which was the least bit off the mark, but Trump gets away with murder. In fact, and I say this in all sincerity, maybe he would shoot somebody in the middle of 5th Avenue and see if he got away with it. I would not be surprised by that at this point. Here’s what Trump did today, which if Biden had done it, would be making world headlines.
Trump's mental lapse, waving his own Truth Social post like a toddler's drawing, proves he's unfit. Newsmax spin won't hide the chaos.

His Truth Social post is prima facie evidence of nothing beyond the fact that he made a Truth Social post. And in fact what he did was unnecessarily release a lot of irrigation water which farmers need for this summer because he wanted a talking point and a photo op. I don’t know what’s going to happen a few months from now in that regard but I’m not looking forward to it.
And here is this moronic bimbo chiming in, because anytime Trump has a mental lapse, she’s one of the people there to legitimize it and make it sound like 12 dimensional chess.
A little OT but given the dumpster fire that has been going on with this administration Lauren Boebert and Empty-G are just not rising to the top because there’s so much even more absurd stuff going on. It’s been nice seeing them go down the priority rung.

And here’s Boebert with another blatant lie. Does it ever cross her mind that her constituents might rely on what she says — and then find out it’s all bullshit?
No Tax On Tips has passed the House!
Promises Made. Promises Kept.
That’s how MAGA works!

And we thought that the GOP hit rock bottom with Sarah Palin. Little did we know how well off we were. I shudder to think what the GOP will come up with next. Chimpanzees banging garbage can lids in morse code, and that’s how they communicate with their constituents? Hey, don’t laugh. Just bookmark this idea and let’s see what we’re talking about in ten years, about who the new Republican freshmen are in Congress.
The only ray of hope which has happened recently are two incidents, both of them just today:
- Trump put up that gawdawful Trump Gaza AI video. The backlash was so severe that he took it down. That proved two things: a. That Trump is utterly tone deaf and oblivious and b. All of his constituents are not. There were comments from Xians chastising him for the golden idol statue.
- Also today, Junior put up an audio suggesting that the U.S. should be allies of Russia, not Ukraine. That got enough blowback that he yanked it down.
So there are boundaries. I do find some encouragement there. And let’s face it, we have to take any win we can find, no matter how small.

You know, I have always considered Sphincter Face to have a narcissistic personality disorder. In recent years, I have seen his cruelty grow to the level of psychopathy.
But, what is this deep fascination with water?! 🚿🚽🤿💧🌊💦🤽♂️🛀🐳 Long before this latest devastating fire season in L.A., The Sphincter was obsessed with low-flow showers and dishwashers, flushing toilets 15 times, “the ocean windmills are killing the whales,” the Governor of CA withholding water from Trump golf courses and not opening the humongous faucet in N. CA when needed. And currently, Gov. Newsom is letting all of CA water drain into the ocean instead of letting it run into reservoirs and irrigation canals and fire hydrants!! 😱🤪😵💫 He shows us “proof” in the photographs he’s waving around…why can’t the rest of us see it?Really, you mean those photos of water flowing full-to-the-brim through “halfpipes?” WTF?! 🤯
The only answer is to add this to the rest of his psychopathies and mental decline. Sphincter Face may be an “aquaholic.” Certainly, he is “hydrophilic” because of his water love. I have settled, though, on “Angelman syndrome.” There are many traits of this health issue that he does not exhibit, but the ones he demonstrates are severe. Overactivity (never stops talking and interrupting others and shaking hands violently), restlessness (easily bored by real work; goes golfing instead), eating disturbances (duh!), and sleep problems (I don’t need to sleep; must post lies). And, 68% of those with Angelman syndrome have a potentially dangerous fascination with water, so much so that care providers are warned to watch them closely in the presence of even small bodies of water! So, when Grandpa Sphincter is sundowning late in the day, don’t let him get near halfpipes that he thinks are bone dry…he could drown!! 🏊♂️🤨
Angelman syndrome? I love this business because I learn something every single day. I love your line, “Can’t sleep, must post lies!” HAHA :))
you forgot the bit about how water neutralizes magnets. it boggles the mind.
Ignoramus is putting it lightly. In Kern County they are pissed that he had that water released because the growing season has started and that water is GONE! He destroys everything he touches.

These people love the metaphor of cream rising to the top.
They’re wrong, more accurately it’s another metaphor entirely
Scum floats.
I was going to say “shit floats” but yours is more polite.
MAGAs banging garbage can lids talking in Morse Code? You had to be joking! Dumbass MAGAs being able to learn Morse Code (not easy) is like me learning to understand a treatise written by the late Stephen Hawking.
But the new freshman class of Republicans would be chimpanzees. Think of it: when they’re pissed they’ll just throw poo. We got there on January 6.
He’s always had a thing for golden showers
But supposedly he’s a germaphobe. That’s what I found odd about that urban myth.
hey how come Palin got shortsighted from a job in the white wash house?
The ignoramus king proves yet again that his intellect is just a split hair above moron. I continue to be amazed that this POS got elected.

That photo he was waving around looked like a swimming pool.to.me! Blue water!
