Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Come on, man.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Another Suit Struck Down

Does anyone keep track of all the unsuccessful lawsuits filed against Presidents? It would be fun to see who had what filed against them. Here is another one against Bush that failed:

A federal judge on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit filed by a former congressman alleging that President Bush violated the 1973 War Powers Act by attacking Iraq.

Former Rep. Clair Callan had no legal standing to file the court action and failed to show that he would be personally injured by Bush’s actions, U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf ruled.

Surely this legislator should have known he would have no legal standing. Congressman understand the laws they make, right?
