The New York Times *is* "one of the usual suspects IMO, even if it's not owned by Murdoch. They've been GOP cheerleaders since at least W.

Sinclair Broadcast Group: A Danger to Democracy.

The New York Post is dogshit. Rupert Murdoc should be deported and air dropped on the Austrailian out back air mail special delivery from 30,000 feet. No chute. That fuck has no place in my nation. There is the prime example of an undesireable immigrant.

Ta, Marcie. Nothing but lies, more lies, and damned lies.

Here’s what is especially infuriating: Joe Biden knows that as President of the US he is uniquely in a position to make someone’s day. Those parachutists will tell their great-grandchildren about how they once shook the hand of the POTUS. Ten generations from now, their descendants will remember it. Great-great-great….great Grandpa who once actually met the POTUS, isn’t that cool.

So Biden and any other POTUS who isn’t a complete narcissistic POS, they’re going to take a minute or three out of their schedule when they can, to make someone’s day.

Rightwing media is so damned hateful they can’t even understand that.

Is there an app or keyboard strike that can just post "Fuk these fukkkers" so I don't have to waste valuable time typing "Fuk these fukkkers"? Thanks.

"No worries about Melania having to lead him anywhere, though, she won’t touch him with a 10-foot pair of tongs."

Am I the only one that read that last word wrong?

Hundreds of billions? No wonder he sucks at business so bad.

" Trump is not even allowed to visit Italy, or even pass through the airport, until he’s served whatever sentence he gets and completed all the probationary requirements"

This is just so unfair, how is he to court PM Giorgia Meloni (an old-school fascist from way back) if he's not allowed in Italy?

"Anyway, the RNC, desperate to deflect from how its presumptive nominee’s brain is a soggy bowl of moldering oatmeal"

I think you are giving the Fulvous Flatulence too much credit. IMO, a more fitting analogy would be comparing his orange pip of a brain to the underside of pond scum.

"cropped the video to edit out the parachutists to make it look like Biden was staring into space. The RNC blasted the clip on its Xitter feed, where it was immediately and unquestioningly lapped up by right-wing media"

Why waste needed capital for AI when the Rubes will eat whatever bovine scat is placed before them? Most of them couldn't recognize the difference between a Rolex and a cheap digital Casio.

"the RNC has now resorted to just making stuff up"

Just now? The RNC has tried to express a positive image of the Mango Malignancy since shortly after he descended on his golden escalator to declare himself the savior of the country and its people. What the RNC has accomplished is smearing lipstick on a pig's face. One can't help improve the bad reputation of another if they, too, have a bad reputation, and the RNC has let its corruption show for close to a decade, allowed itself to be wholly subsumed into Trump Inc, and become another of his personal piggybanks.

Pond scum is useful. I've got a generation of tadpoles growing big and strong by consuming pond scum. They'd starve if their pond scum was replaced with tfg.

Pres Biden started to sit down. Then paused and waited for Dr Jill Biden to sit first. That is how a gentleman acts.

What really cheeses my crackers about this particular media malfeasance is how it twists one of Biden’s genuine assets into more fuel for the “He old” obsession. Biden is a people person, and I think it’s charming. He likes talking to people, and from what I’ve seen he especially likes to go find people who aren’t the center of attention to make sure someone acknowledges them. It’s genuinely sweet and thoughtful, and it makes me mad they’re using it for “oh, he’s wandering off again” fodder.

I’m so tired of the “TRUMP VS BIDEN” horse race. It’s Biden’s ADMINISTRATION vs Trump’s! Look at all the great thing’s Biden’s team has accomplished! Meanwhile, Trump is auditioning grifters, attention whores and legit nazis for his administration.

So frustrated by people who only get their news from the wingnuttosphere! There just seems to be no fucking way to reach them in their bubble. If all you hear is stories and stories about stories and stories about stories about stories about OHJB being old and feeble, no matter how you might dislike Assmouth there’s no way you might not think he would be a better choice. Fuck.

He is so deep into the cult that it would not surprise me if Jackson immediately changes his surname to Johnson just so he could claim that Convicted Felon Donald Trump got it right and is the healthiest ex-president in the history of the world and you should see him do the Watusi. Meanwhile, Speaker Mike Johnson is confused, thinking that he has a new baby brother.
