Wow... INut and 1/2 a brain is no way to go through life!

Trump lied, people around the world are dying... in Africa and most notably Ukraine.

At least the Trumpers around here are True Believers, no matter how diluted.

#2 Son is just a crybaby.

- this burden for decades...

At a fraction of a percent of the Budget; one that buys us markets and makes us friends all around the world.

Or did until Traitor Trump decided to cancel contracts for supplies and services that had ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR... and killed him some little black and brown kids in the bargain, with many more to come.

And his Cult is proud of this.

Oops! wrong link.

Here's ya go:

Obligatory:

"Well, it's floodin' down in Texas, all of the telephone lines are down."

"Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has vowed to back Ukraine in its quest to join the European Union. She also added that with the U.S. deciding to pause sending some military weapons to Ukraine, the EU must fill those gaps.

EU Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen said the bloc will deliver 2 million shells to Ukraine by the end of the year, using the windfall profits from immobilized Russian assets.

"We also invested 2.1 billion euros to strengthen Ukraine's defense right now, and important is the origin of this money. We're doing this by using the windfall profits from immobilized Russian assets," von der Leyen said.

"So, in practice, Russia is paying for the weapons Ukraine is using."

Really nice headline! Happy Melons Day!

- I told the little woman

What did Marco say back?

"I'm very disappointed with the conversation I had today with President Putin, because I don't think he's there. I'm just saying, I don't think he's looking to stop, and that's too bad," Trump told reporters late Thursday night after landing back in Washington after his rally in Des Moines, Iowa."

"A new poll has found that almost half of Americans disapprove of the new "Alligator Alcatraz" set up in the Florida Everglades to house undocumented migrants detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

In all, 48 percent of the 2,983 people who responded to the YouGov survey on Thursday said they were not in favor of the facility while just 33 percent said they supported it, with another 18 percent unsure.

While Republicans and Democrats were largely split along party lines, just 26 percent of respondents who identified themselves as independent voters said they backed the idea while 53 percent were against it.

Another noteworthy finding from YouGov's poll was the revelation that 47 percent of Americans believe detainees are being treated too severely by ICE while 23 percent said they were being treated appropriately, 10 percent they were not being treated harshly enough, with the remainder unsure."

Aww... the invisible Trump traitor messed up the timing!

69!!!!

( happy 4th, L33!)

"Putin is invading more than Ukraine

The new battlefield is online, and the stakes are democratic sovereignty."

Biden had to pay for Covid expenses that Trump increased by his bumbling fumbling stumbling reaction to the Pandemic. Which also cost an untold number of lives, btw.

But they weren't billionaires, so who cares?

UPDATE:

"Trump said he had a long call with Putin on Iran and Ukraine. According to the Kremlin, the call lasted more than an hour.

Trump said he "is not happy" about the war in Ukraine and stressed he "didn't make any progress at all" on this issue in his call with Putin."

Donald Trump's Approval Rating Plummets With Republicans

This decline in Trump's approval rating among Republicans could signal growing dissatisfaction within the party's core supporters, which could weaken his influence over the GOP's direction and strategy. As the 2026 midterm elections approach, a faltering base could impact candidate endorsements, voter turnout, and overall party unity.

- a thinking person

You've been telling us you are a genius since you were 17... in all the time we've known you, we still don't know what you mean.

Plus Record Military spending from the No War President... his MIC donors love him just like redneck rwingers do.

For different reasons, obviously. The donors because he makes them money, his Cult because he makes them feel important. Or interesting. Or smart or brave. All the things they aren't.

Absolutely right... the same thing happened in FL when the GOPhers put in drug testing for welfare users; they had to close it down because it cost 10's of millions of dollars to find out that there were less than 2 percent testing positive.

Underedumacated rwingers are highly susceptible to political myth, as LBJ pointed out.

And it not only works on race, immigration, and gender, it also works when people are too poor to own homes, have health care, and feed themselves BECAUSE THEY NEVER HAD A GOOD EDUCATION NOR A LIVING WAGE!

Elite Corporate donors made sure of that.

Just look at some of the Trump posters here, for example. And others of his supporters who are perhaps better off, but have never in their life been concerned about anyone other than themselves.

If they're ok, F everyone else.

"Meanwhile, Trump's "One Big, Beautiful Bill" is intentionally handicapping more easily and faster-built wind, solar and battery storage projects that would help satiate the massive data center power demands of the large-scale cloud service providers known as hyperscalers.

The final legislation approved by Congress on July 3 (the House concurred on a 218-214 vote) agrees to quickly unwind the clean energy tax credits that could have helped strengthen an already stretched electric grid."

"Unsurprisingly, the clean energy industry is up in arms about the BBB legislation. Abigail Ross Hopper, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association, said it will increase electricity bills, shut down manufacturing facilities, cost many thousands of U.S. construction jobs, and weaken the grid.

"This legislation [will] set back America's global competitiveness, destabilize our energy future, and weaken the very industries that power our economy and strengthen our national security"while surrendering the 21st-century tech race to China," she said.

On the other hand, with money flowing from fossil fuel interests to support Trump and Republicans last year, oil and gas lobbyists " who frequently decry clean energy tax credits as unfair " praised the final bill."

The tiny orange hand wins! It's full of oil money!

Vlad actually made Lil' Donnie wait for an hour for him to answer the 4:00 scheduled phone call because he was talking to a room full of oligarchs (Russian, supposedly, lol).

Then he threw some shade at the US President:

"He apologized to the host and the crowd and announced that he is going to have a phone call with Trump and requested the audience, "Please, don't be angry. I understand that we could talk more, but it's so awkward to make [Trump] wait, he could get offended."

"Putin told Trump that Russia is not going to give up on its goals in Ukraine, Ushakov said, adding that Russia sees its peace talks with Ukraine as a bilateral issue that the U.S. shouldn't be actively involved in.

What's next: Ukrainian officials said President Volodymyr Zelensky is scheduled to speak with Trump on Friday to discuss the pause of the weapons shipments."

;;
Well, Donald Jehovah Trump now his Marching Orders from Vlad. I'm sure he'll break the news to Zelensky kindly.

Diapers that he will eventually have dipped in gold (colored paint) in China, and sell for the bargain price of $1000 each; Only $10,000 with their original contents!

Trumpers care not at all about right or wrong, truth, justice, or the American Way.

They care about a political win, 'bragging rights'... no matter how damaging to the People it is, even when it's damaging to themselves as well.

All because an uppity black-ish guy became President, twice in a row, and then women had the audacity to think they could win, too!

That was enough for the Republican Racist/Misogynist Genes to kick in; enough for them to support a documented criminal and traitor in the WH, no matter that he's an evil SOB unfit to serve.

Apparently Trumpers still buh-lieve that the droppings from their betters, the billionaires who financed their Orange Cult Leade,r will eventually someday maybe possibly Tinkle Down on them.... which has never, ever happened. Ever.

#12

Is just another slave to the racist cult of the criminal traitor in the WH.
