Deistic references to a god in foundational documents are an anachronism and irrelevant from a constitutional federal policy perspective. Speaker Johnson is resorting to symbolic gimmicks for manipulating Trumpkin voters. https://t.co/YIOBnaAXxu

I don't know why Trump is obsessed with British royalty and cultural icons like 007. We fought 2 wars against Britain to get away from them https://t.co/t6jiB1NOwE

This is a dude who actually ran against Trump in 2016. "Graham spent the early days of the campaign as a fierce critic of Donald Trump, calling him a "kook" and "unfit for office"." And yet Trump isn't primarying this neo-con of ne-cons. https://t.co/vabpkZiW96

I never cared for Trumpkins MTG or Boebert until Trump decided to go after them. Apparently, Trump is livid Boebert decided to endorse the best Congressman in Congress, Massie, who RINO-in-Chief is trying to primary for the second time

Does the Bonehead-in-Chief actually think his juvenile petty insults actually impress anyone beyond his gullible minions? Does he think signing his BS tweets make his idiotic soundbites "respectable"? https://t.co/ZyRwlCfU2e

Trump. upset with Boebert for endorsing Tom Massie, a key Trump target, has hypocritically slammed her migrating to a more GOP-friendly district, ignoring his gerrymander agenda. Let's compare the number of times Trump has won a CO election vs. Boebert.

Trump's RCP job approval has dipped below 40%. He is now beginning to approach the numbers of Carter and George W. Bush. pic.twitter.com/P14Y30kLt3

Trump is sending Hegseth to stump for his challenger to Massie' If I were Massie, I would offer to pay Hegseth to visit; Hegseth is the face of Trump's deeply unpopular disastrous Iran war. I'm sure Kentucky voters love Trumpflation and Trump's fault for skyrocketing gas prices.

Trump is trying to create a taxpayer-funded slush fund to compensate Trumpkins also paranoid that they were unfairly targeted by the Biden Administration. Merry Griftmas! pic.twitter.com/RIcSdIy67q

My cellphone reported that MAHA leaders are stumped that given high beef prices, struggling households are bypassing relatively inexpensive, nutritionally dense organ meats, like liver. Not me, but my local Walmart hasn't had Braunschweiger in stock for some time

I think I was sent a correct nonpartisan ballot, but MD contacted me not to send in the original but a forthcoming replacement ballot I got mailed a ballot for a single non-partisan county race. The RINO-in-Chief need not worry. I will not be voting for any Trumpkin candidates.

I've been a SA Spurs fan since my undergrad days at OLLU when the Spurs were part of the ABA & we had a student ticket bundle. Victor Wembanyama is something special, a 7'4" center who drained a 3-pointer to send last night's opening game of the NBA conference finals into OT 2.

Of course, the corrupt Bastard-in-Chief would endorse Texas impeachment survivor Paxton. They have impeachments in common.

Apparently, Brock Lesnar's unexpected WWE Wrestlemania retirement was a work. I had let my Netflix subscription lapse, so I didn't see his revenge attack on Oba Femi.

Sad but not surprising that corrupt Trump finally managed to primary Tom Massie. RINO-in-Chief Trump also had pro-liberty conservatives Amash & Sanford primaried in the past. I had hoped Massie could weather Trump's obsession to unseat him a second time, but Trump outspent him.

Michael Boldin of the 10th Amendment Center is not directly here discussing Trumpkin's extreme partisanship and integration of religious nationalism, but the comparisons are obvious. https://t.co/oPantvpPsP

The extremism of Trumpist xenophobia has reached a jump-the-shark absurdity. Only one office is limited to natural-born citizenship, and Trump had telegraphed his xenophobia with his embrace of crackpot birtherism.

As a libertarian, I had zero tolerance for Massie's undue deference to the corrupt, self-serving RINO-in-Chief. Massie supported Trump's preferred votes most of the time ("91% "). Massie voted against Trump's impeachments. Massie won 7 Congressional elections w/o Trump. https://t.co/7iqUIYhepR pic.twitter.com/riwWwrjptw

The Hypocrie-in-Chief pardoned his violent J6 mob criminals who injured 140 Capitol cops. Local law enforcement is not a federal responsibility; Trump had zero to do with the preexisting downward trend. https://t.co/7JN08MX6Mo

Ever notice how Kimmel mocks Trump pissing on everything, like hyphenating the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, by referencing the Trump-Epstein files?

I was particularly amused by the gag of Pope Leo walking off as the final guest (not really), over his appearance rider, which called for a real Chicago hot dog. As someone who has eaten hot dogs in Chicago (Leo's home city), you do not order a dog with ketchup.

Biden didn't put taxpayers on the hook for Trump's ballroom fetish or a taxpayer-funded slush fund for J6 violent Trumpkin criminals. https://t.co/IAa8oLgvdZ

Trump, as usual, knows nothing about the Constitution. Statehood or SCOTUS expansion bills are subject to filibusters and, even if passed, to a veto requiring a supermajority override. https://t.co/mvDMzV5Igi

No, Rubio is arguing NATO agrees with Trump's rationale for an unprovoked war with Iran. Even hawks are more worried about Iran's drones than the nuclear threat. https://t.co/4zvJZMdLzH pic.twitter.com/sUjuZpkkKF

JESUS! Does SC breed neo-con interventionists? I don't know who's worse: Graham or Haley. The nuclear weapon fears are exaggerated . Iran does not pose an imminent threat against the US, with overwhelming nuclear response capabilities. https://t.co/whbI2Azcwm

Nope. Recall that the SOB vacated the White House after getting his ass kicked in the 2020 election. He lives with free rent in the minds of leftists. Losing the midterms will make his life miserable, and he's weeks from turning 80. https://t.co/3ky4cHAgn9

One of the most interesting things about the Late Show finale as that Donald Trump didn't make even a cameo appearance in Colbert's monologue. To me, it was Colbert's classy way of saying Trump didn't define him as a comedian or host
— raguillemette (@raguillemette) May 22, 2026
Trump won a plurality of 2024 ballots. He had no mandate, no Congressional coattails. Each chamber of Congress had razor-thin majorities. The hypocritical author of the Art of the Deal instead of negotiating with his opposition tried to muscle through a partisan agenda.

The Bastard-in-Chief doesn't know the Constitution doesn't give him tariff powers and he wants people to believe that he passed a cognitive test?

After nearly 18 months, it's not "Biden's economy". A tanking dollar (which Trump sees as good for exports) and Trump's unprovoked tariff wars have weakened foreign price competition and tight global energy supplies are a consequence of Trump's unprovoked war on Iran. pic.twitter.com/rjktp2j037

The latest CDC weekly stats:
We continue to see of the winter surge as we reach the informal start of the summer season this holiday weekend, although the virus is resurging in 3 states: Florida, Louisiana, and Hawaii.
COVID-19 weekly news items include:
The blog is still averaging over 1K, dubiously well over blog life stats. We should pass the 200 post mark over the coming week. I'm planning to post an essay on Massie's recent primary loss to Trump's recruited stooge. X/Twitter followers are starting to stabilize, but most tweets barely attract impressions.
I'm watching WWE Saturday Night, the last PLE series still carried by Peacock and probably the last I'll see on my expiring subscription. I think the NXT PLEs will be carried on the CW. The odd thing is that Peacock didn't really promote the PLE; I couldn't even see a link on my home page tonight. I ended up having to do a website search.
