I think at some point Donald was so fucking stupid that it unmade and remade the universe for a bit there, or swapped us to some deviant timeline or something.
Mike "Hunt" Johnson is very obviously either a closeted homosexual who needs to get honest with himself, or has simply never been laid and is very angry that just about everyone else has.
Anyone who gives that much of a fuck about who's doing what in bedrooms other than their own is never a balanced individual.
Johnson seems a little over vigilant re: his and others’ johnsons, if you know what I mean. Seems a marker for possible abuse issues. It is not unusual for men who have been sexually abused by men( and god knows churches are the place to find these people), to be terrified( trauma bonded) to homosexuality..
I’m counting on Churchill’s paraphrased description of us: “The American people will do the right thing, only after they’ve tried everything else”.
And the Wall St movers and shakers know the danger to their portfolios if Trump and the Rs get all three branches of govt. (they already bought the judicial).
Johnson speaks like a guy who has definitely fantasized about having sex with other men, if not had it. We’ve seen this play out over and over again with these projectionist assholes.
After that statement on Maine, did anyone ask Johnson for his theory on why none of the other “completely amoral societies” around the world, like Canada and most of Europe, don’t have anywhere near the level of gun violence and innocent deaths as the USA?
Great piece. It is a scary world we live in right now as people seem to want to believe liars and narcissists before they will believe the truth. Idiots abound
There is some kind of idiocy in this country that says the police can't do anything to protect someone when that person is being threatened regularly. Forty-one years ago, my first husband , a psychology professor, was shot to death by a student who had been threatening him for months. The student had been placed on psychiatric observation by his therapist in the local hospital. As soon as he was released, he got a gun & went to my husband's college office shared by another professor and at the time filled with students, including my husband's nephew. My husband was shot 5 times. Fortunately, it wasn't an AR-15. But the long story short is that we do not pay enough attention to the mentally ill and give them too much latitude even when they are crying for help.
A current example of people in charge not paying attention, is RFKjr's request for Secret Service protection, which in the past 55 years has been given to all presidential candidates. However, the Biden administration continues to say "NO"!
Liz Cheney has described some House Republican Trump loyalists as not only glad to break the government but “frankly, some of whom are white supremacists, some of whom are Anti-Semitic.”
“I think Donald Trump is the single most dangerous threat we face,” Cheney concluded.
I’m a lifelong Democrat — since the Vietnam War, in fact, and frankly I never thought I’d be in full agreement with anyone named Cheney. But folks, on this she is 100% correct.
A nice companion piece to Claudia’s excellent piece is Frank Schaeffer’s article laying bare the dreams, schemes and intentions of the dangerous evangelical movement Johnson springs from ...
I’m not a big believer in formal education, but my nerves… its serious absence in the US population is both depressing and horrifying. Illiteracy and innumeracy reign among a people that are prone to idiocy in any case. Hence, the dangerous chaos that currently reigns and will inevitably worsen.

The more we find out, the worse we feel about the new Speaker. But I can’t look away. Airing the idiocy seems to be the only way forward.
Perfection. Excellent. Nailed it. 👏👏👏

Great piece here, thank you ⭐️

Fiction is becoming Reality. "The Handmaid's Tale" is coming to a community near you. Be afraid. Be. Very. Afraid.
This is a good read. Thanks.
"the press has wrongfully elevated concerns about President Biden's age and frequent gaffes while downplaying Trump's extremism."
Trump makes them loads more money, it's america, if it doesn't make Dollars, it doesn't make sense.
Great Read, great writing. SO tired of it all, madness really, and we have ZERO say in anything! Great system, not.
