Trump will never admit that he lost in 2020. He'll be trying to hurt everyone in the Democratic party until the day he dies, just because.

Of course he is. But most of the news media has always been too cowardly to say so.

Tulsi is the perfect symbol of the MAGA cult. If you glance at her quickly she looks pretty (sort of). If you look a little bit more closely, she is really, really ugly.

LIke all MAGA, the ugliest part of her body isn't her nose, it isn't her toes...it's her mind.

Gabbard: "Their goal was to usurp President Trump"

IDK about you, but I've never heard "usurp" used with a human direct object. Tulsi doing so conjures squiggy images of tongue baths, and worse, that I'm sorry I mentioned but had to get out of my own head.

Fuzzy language use is ALWAYS a sign of weak thinking. Take my word for it. The Aloha gal can't do the job, in either its normal or MAGA iteration, and she's flailing.

They are throwing out every story they have hashed up in the past to see what will get the MAGA's brains off the fact that they won't release the Epstein files. Nothing has worked so far so they will keep trying. It has always worked for them in the past so this is quite comical to watch.

This is the very epitome of “truthfulness”.

Thank you Stephen, long may you rage.

Less a display of ignorance than a request for perspective, but what the fuck happened to Matt Taibbi, Glenn Greenwald, ect? The answer is likely close to "what the fuck happened to Tulsi Gabbard"; that the rot was baked into them and the evidence was in their work from the start. The ghost of an old friend nudging me with her elbow. "You wish it was still 2010."

1. Manufacture dirt against your opponent.

2. Keep it secret; don't tell anyone.

3. ...?

4. Profit.

Sometime around 1996, Donald Trump owed a consortium of banks $4 billion. His credit was gone, No legitimate bank would lend him a nickel more. Somehow he paid. Where did he get the money? Everyone assumed the Russians. Has he ever denied this, what does he owe them?

It does help that Ewic stupidly confirmed to business reporters that they were getting all their financing from the Russians.

As Gary observes, "WORSE THAN WATERGATE, [is] the ne plus ultra of presidential scandals for lazy people who need a shorthand reference. "

Why do they never (because they are Republicans, of course) refer to the constant corrupt scandal that was the Reagan administration, just for example?

There was that minute, insignificant Iran-Contra business. And there were more officials investigated, indicted or convicted than for any other presidency ever. Secretary of Defense Weinberger would have gone for the proverbial row of crappers if he hadn't been pardoned. So would McFarlane, Fiers and Abrams if they also had not all been pardoned by Bush. Clair George of the CIA was convicted of lying to two congressional committees. Pardoned by Bush.

Richard Secord was indicted on nine felony counts.

National security advisor John Poindexter? Found guilty on five criminal counts including obstruction of justice.

On and on and on. Illegal lobbying. The Savings and Loan Crisis, which Martin Mayer described as "[making] Teapot Dome and Credit Mobilier seem minor ... " The EPA scandals. (Twenty-odd high-ranking officials removed.) Paisley, Assistant Navy Secretary, did four years for massive bribe-taking, to the melodious tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Gaines, Paisley's successor, did a mere six months, for taking gifts illegally and theft of government property. Oh, and Wedtech Corporation's peccadillo. Bribery to obtain Defense Department contracts.

Compare all that to one pissant burglary of the campaign HQ of Nixon's rivals, and subsequent attempt at a cover-up.

Forget "worse than Watergate." The new yardstick for corruption (constant and blatant) should long ago have become "worse than the Reagan years."

She surfs which clearly qualifies her to run the entire unwieldy bloated oxymoronic "intelligence" services for this administration.

Sometimes a moron is just a moron. When morons speak, it isn't news. Or truth. It's just moronic dingleberries dropping out into the ether. Another pathetic diversion. And I thought she was gonna get fired over Iran. Are any political sooth Sayers ever right these days?

To reveal Sir's more sensitive, non-pedo side Sir will soon publish the first of his poems. Here's a sneak peek:

But outside, there,
