That time-honoured conviction that the sky is blue may not be as safe as I once believed. Donald Trump is a natural born liar who couldn't tell the truth on a bet, and his worshippers believe him. Ask Trump if a cloudless summer sky is blue and he'd tell you it's red just to keep in practice.

I guess it's understandable. He's been at war with facts and reality his whole life. Facts and reality say he's stupid. Facts and reality say he's ignorant to nine decimal places. Facts and reality say he's such a rotten businessman he sent a group of hotel casinos bankrupt. Facts and reality say he has the most reprehensible, disgusting attitude to women of any bloke on the North American continent, at least now that Jeffrey Epstein is dead, and maybe even while Epstein was still kicking.

Facts and reality are not at all complimentary to Donald Trump.

This! I often say that the fact that truth has a liberal bias works against us. We think that having a reality that is basically The Reality gives us an edge. It does not. The other side has to work hard to create and maintain a shared reality, and that brings them together and gets them all on the same page. We need to do that too.

During covid, I saw a public service announcement from Mexico called "Susana Distancia". (It's a pun.) I started to cry. TFG threw away Obama's pandemic plan, and when Biden took over he seemed to want to just put it behind him. When I saw the PSA I thought, this is how it should be. We should all be talking about how silly it is and making rude jokes, while building a shared reality in which social distancing works. Just because we all know something is real doesn't mean it will automatically become part of our shared reality. We all need to know we all know, you know?

It won't be long before actual death squads are in every blue state.

Robert Francis Kennedy. Only the President (and his kids) got the Fitz. Suggest that writers (and editors) keep sticking that in.

Hard on good people named "Francis", I know; my father's name was "Donald".

It couldn't possibly be that he was depressed and suicidal because that prick in the oval mishandled the whole situation now could it? He is the most dangerous person (?) to this country ever.

I haven’t been able to take a real vacation, because of responsibilities I took on at my firm, for a year. RFKJr has only been on the job 7 months. How can he take one? Although we are better off when he does nothing.

β€œat least as responsible as Patrick Joseph White’s father, whose legally purchased firearms he used to kill a police officer and shoot out however many buildings” β€” it may have been pointed out already, but it has been reported that in the county where White pΓ¨re lived, every household is required to have a firearm. Maybe not an assault rifle.

you know what, he probably was depressed after getting the covid vax, because it was a depressing and stressful time - if only there was a health system with affordable and available mental health care that could have supported him and helped him feel better

Ta, Robyn. Bobby Brainworm is loathsome, and not to be believed about anything health related, vaccination in particular.

Republicans want us to die.

It doesn't appear to matter how we do it.

Not sure of the reasons behind this desire, since someone has to do the work to keep things going, and it isn't the likes of the 2025 Cabal.

But, they want us to die, and ginning up the demented to kill, kill kill, is one of the weapons they are using to make it happen,

RFK, Jr. is a disgusting POS! He champions the anti vaccine crusade to make MONEY from his phony vitamins and from lawsuits with plaintiffs who claim harm from vaccines. He’s benefits from big payouts after the settlements. He’s just a greedy monster! The Atlanta shooter fired hundreds of rounds at the CDC!!! This could easily have been a mass casualty event. And since Kennedy has lied for years about dreadful long term consequences of vaccines, of course a madman inevitably will try to exact revenge on the CDC. After this horrible event which killed a fine police officer and traumatized employees, Kennedy took his own sweet time responding because you know he was on vacation and could not be bothered! And this jackass heroin addict who drove his wife to suicide, is still the head of HHS and is out there having fun catching fish!
