Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Happy Face Killer...who needs you guys anymore? You serial killers ain't got nothin on the Trump Crew! Ebola! Measles! Who cares? They sure don't.

We forget--at our peril--those hundreds of thousands who died needlessly of Covid under Trump's first "watch." (Not watch.) For a chickenshit who noped out of serving in Viet Nam, he's racked up quite the kill list. Dateline, are you paying attention?

(No. The answer is no. NBCUniversal would never jeopardize its standing with Agent Orange.)

MAGA’s Death Cult Strikes Again – Nothing says “pro-life” like gutting vaccines, slashing aid, and letting children die preventable deaths while RFK Jr. treats science like it’s a deep-state conspiracy. If a single measles case can now turn fatal, what’s next? Bringing back polio for the nostalgia factor?

So … I’m not going to ask why these dumb people just accept what Elno says – it’s because they want to believe that eventually he’s going to harm Black and brown people and save them

I’m not going to ask why the MSM is not discrediting his trash statements because, sadly in this era of corporate capture,

What I think I am going to ask is, instead of just rolling over underneath him, what elected Democrats plan to do about the thing he & Orange lied and said they weren’t going to do … as well as what their constituents PLAN to PUSH them to do

Looking at y’all

Also – who is letting these Representatives run away and not answer questions and lie to their constituents without getting fact-checked?

"...the United States is shooting itself and its worldwide influence in the dick for no good reason." Oh, there's a reason; we just don't know what it is yet. Whatever Putin offered Trump to turn traitor, it must have been huge.

They want those minerals from Ukraine because they know climate change is coming even though they don't want to talk about it and they want to build a bunker to shield all the rich White people, kill everyone else, and then buy up their land at rock-bottom prices when they're dead just like McConnell let Oleg Deripaska launder his money through that chunk of Kentucky.

I wish people would stop pretending we don't know what it is. Russian oligarchs under Putin are white supremacists too, you know.

And if you didn't know that, now you know that too.

The U.S. Just Became The Villain In Its Own Spy Thriller – Imagine being so incompetent and cruel that your own ambassador is begging you to stop screwing over an entire continent. At this rate, the next James Bond movie will have the U.S. as the rogue state, with a villainous Musk-type cackling over spreadsheets as plagues run wild.

Atul Gawande is a world renowned surgeon. He was also the head of the WHO for a while there. I know him from the book "The Checklist Manifesto" about the World Health Organization's efforts to get standardized surgical checklists (based on airline pre-flight checklists) as the common practice in all hospitals to minimize mistakes.

He's the reason you have to give your full name and date of birth every time you change rooms or chairs at the doctor's office before they touch you or give you anything. THIS IS A GOOD THING. It has prevented many, many medical mistakes in hospitals.

I just love how tens of millions of Christians are celebrating such owning of the libs.

I wish there was a hell, because most of them would be in for a very big surprise.

WHITE CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS. The kind who believe in holy war.

Literal "Christian" jihadists. Who are also white supremacists.

As opposed to actual Christians.

Although I'm sure you'll want to scoff at someone making the distinction instead of paying attention to the racist part of this that also makes it homicidal and genocidal -- and they DO NOT CARE about White people who die as a result of their "instituting their plan" and they literally refer to that as "collateral damage" and if you don't know enough about the "doctrine" of white nationalists to know that, now would be a really good time to look it up.

The fortified peanut paste that was used to feed who knows how many starving people around the world is made in the small town of Fitzgerald, GA. The plant employed about 125-150 people from town. Considering how small it is a big portion of the population. The company made, packed and shipped those packets and are now not getting paid the millions they are owed. I live in GA with all the MAGAts. The peanut farmers who all voted for the felon are now whining about how this isn’t what they voted for. We are going to hear that refrain for years to come. I doubt they will learn that voting against their own best interests is a bad thing.

Trump’s Gaza Plan: Let People Starve, Then Build A Gaudy Casino On Their Graves – USAID workers are blocked from meetings, famine relief is canceled, and surprise surprise—Trump’s already dreaming of beachfront property deals. The GOP doesn’t just ignore war crimes; they turn them into real estate ventures.

What I don’t understand is why Trump is always shouting random figures about drugs coming into America from Mexico, Canada, and, oh, let’s say Egypt. Why does he care? He lacks any sense of empathy whatsoever, and is a soulless narcissist, if not a sociopath. Is it simply another form of invasion by outside forces, the “pollution” of America by non-white, non-wealthy people? Or is it merely his go-to virtue signaling, a cause to provide cover and justify anything he does? Or doesn’t it matter, since we are all screwed anyway?

"What I don’t understand is why Trump is always shouting random figures about drugs coming into America from Mexico, Canada, and, oh, let’s say Egypt. Why does he care?"

Why is it so hard to see that most of the countries he wails about the loudest have either mostly brown populations or a handsome leader of whom he's personally jealous?

He doesn't actually *care* in the way that those of us with reasonably functional frontal lobes understand the verb "to care".

It's rhetoric - a racist lie to get the base (who does not, will not, and in some cases apparently cannot critically think) to believe whatever he says needs to be done about anything.

I honestly thought that was obvious -- especially as hard as Donald is trying to be Andrew Jackson while Elno literally tries to codify apartheid -- but maybe it's only obvious to those of us who are at greatest risk of genocidal extermination under their "policies".

The distinction between sentient and sapient is important. Donald Trump is sentient but not sapient.

White men are being really hit hard by opioids.

I read an article last year that, like, millions are affected and they're dropping out of the workforce, because it's hard to work with a monkey on your back. Also dropping dead from overdoses.

If it was all black people dying from fentanyl and having their lives ruined, he wouldn't give a single, solitary fuck.

But he's gotta live by those 14 words. Also "88" and "6mwe."

Editorial bit: Amazing how the Repubes are all having a sad about white men being druggies and wanting to hit the supply side while not discussing or addressing the demand side of USians who are turning to drugs. And the reason they're turning to drugs: hundreds of millions of people have no hope of ever having a decent life because assholes like fElon and PAB are shitting all over them, as is the economic system itself.

Agree. The supply side will always be there, and be lucrative and violent, because of the endless war on drugs. If we followed other nations who stop trying to jail everyone involved in the drug trade, and instead divert funds to education, outreach, treatment and maintenance, we could save lives. I was stuck for 15 years in a loop of opioid abuse, because despite having success, family, shelter and much good fortune, I felt better and happier on drugs. Only the kindness, wisdom, understanding and experience of the right people in treatment helped me escape alive.

Ta, Gary. I'm in tears again. They are tears of rage. I work with/for HIV positive adults in a federally qualified health center in The South Bronx. I plan on leaving as soon as I find a job closer to home. The majority of my clients depend on Medicaid, SSDI, SNAP, and so on. Our clinic, therefore, receives much of its funding from Medicaid. I can't stick around to see what happens. I. Just. Can't.
