Great report today! Almost all of it was good news to me. Thanks Ben.

So I guess we won’t be seeing a sign for “Trump Gas” anytime soon at the pumps. He can leave that in the Oval Office which will need severe fumigation.

Julie's avatar

Aaand lots of Sage to get rid of the bad vibes left behind by this regime!

AbbyRoad's avatar

At this point, it would take a minimum of the lady from “Poltergeist” who helped get Carol Anne back!

Ryde's avatar

What we will be seeing is Spirit resurrected as another Trumpf airlines.

Suel J's avatar

That is sure to fail after extracting every last buck

Ryde's avatar

Yeah, that the pattern.

Thank you for keeping this free!! Some of us just can’t manage a single penny more for anything right now and we depend on you for the truth about what’s happening to us.

Please keep it that way🙏🏼

Cheeto’s Corruption Of Conservatism

The always brilliant Thom Hartmann over at Raw Story(https://bit.ly/3OBrVZm) writes a distillation piece on today’s “conservative” movement aka the CNPP(Conservative Nazi Pedo Party) explaining its evolution since Eisenhower in the 1950’s to today’s dysmorphic conservatism that supports inequality based on a financial platform where government works only for the wealthy

This type of “I’ve got mine, screw you” political attitude currently has permeated all 3 levels of government and is far from what the conservative movement in the 1950’s meant which was to not radically or rapidly change society without first thinking through the consequences in detail, and then, when you do decide to make changes to the rules of society, you move forward in measured increments. Conservatively

Over decades of policies to ravage the principle that all men/women are created equal and aided by the likes of the John Birch Society, Reagan’s demand to cut social safety net programs, and Clarence Thomas’ corruption of SCOTUS, today’s conservative movement has become a fascist haven for the plutocratic wealthy class(Musk, Theil, Karp) willing to strike any corrupt deal that furthers their ends(Cheeto, Jared, Don Jr)

WE the People have slowly unconsciously witnessed the wealthy take over our country and turn it into a quagmire of corruption and graft It’s time to wake up and demand equality and restore accountability

Terrific news that funds are now heading toward Zelensky while simultaneously sanctioning Russia. The sun is out at least for today!

Some quotes to use

Trump went from abusing women (pussy grabs) to abusing the country (power grabs).

“The Mar-a-Lago Mafia has taken American corruption to spectacular new heights.”- Jon Ossoff

Yes, regime change in Iran, but as the music group “The Who” said: “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”

Trump’s rosy promises about the economy don’t put money in your pocket.

The damage is done even If gas prices come down later.

The chaos in Trump’s mind brought chaos to the country.

“Pay attention, Donald Trump. Wannabe dictators wear out their welcome.“-- Schumer

Trump’s War without Congressional approval is the ultimate abuse of presidential power.

There never was a plan for Iran

Trump keeps hurting us at the pump.

Trumpflation

A Democratic majority in Congress will lift up the American people, not the would-be king.

Janet MacCausland's avatar

Still, the Dems need to get corporate interests out of both parties!

Connie Larsen's avatar

Yes! Abolish citizens united.

Rid congress of almost every fing rethuglikkkrussians!

I mean, really!!! Redo Mt. Rushmore.wtf! No bd holiday for the treasonous bastard trump! trump isn’t worthy of 💩!

Julie's avatar

Don’t forget..’trumpsh*t crazy’.. used to be ‘batsh*t crazy’ for the orange felon!

LHS's avatar

And let's not forget Trumpsomnia, which so many Americans suffer from each night, thinking about what the future might be like.

Dee Cee's avatar

trump is grabbing America by the pursey.

The pot calling the kettle black with "Low IQ." 😂 Why isn't his approval rating 0%? What happened to Iran has been weakened and doesn't have weapons? Lies, lies, lies, lies and more lies! Sadly I believe Iran's Supreme Leader over Trump. I never in my lifetime ever thought that was possible! My has the US fallen in such a short time.

Dee Cee's avatar

This. I can't believe that 1 in 3 people still support him! Meidas reports that House Republicans are directing the NIH to research "trump derangement syndrome." They ought to be researching the deranged 30+% of the population that still supports him.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

That's what I'm thinking! Trump supporters need their heads checked!

Gingbos's avatar

The low IQ remark is the classic projection we’ve all come to know and “luv” 🤮.

Janet MacCausland's avatar

Because some dint read and many listen to the mainstream (Right wing) media

LHS's avatar

"Trump attacks the Supreme Court, calls Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson 'low IQ'". What does that make Trump? Negative IQ? Or what a friend of mine refers to as "room temperature IQ".

Grift Watch. I like that heading. Maybe it can be a regular feature. And will Devin Nunes go back to pretending he raises cows?

Janet Hains's avatar

Thank you, Ben. The facts and only the facts. Keep them coming. Keep on keeping on.

W Patterson's avatar

Think Trump will nominate Nunes for . . . Commerce? He's failed everywhere else, so why not?

What sayeth his cow?

LHS's avatar

His cow is highly aMOOsed that Trump showed Devin the door. Hmm. I wonder if Devin refused to wear Florsheim shoes or something like that that made Trump kick him out?

Dee Cee's avatar

Ag Sect'y. That way he can fire another female. Brooke Rollins, best known for her $3 meal deal:

The President's has reached a lower plateau as is the situation often with dementia patients. He will now deteriorate much more quickly. I wonder where his family and doctors are in trying to help him? And us?

AbbyRoad's avatar

Where is Congress?! Surely there is one adult in the whole miasma of elected officials.

Ed Iannuccilli's avatar

Many of us are looking

Bob's avatar

Trump is lucky..he has Putin giving him his daily orders.

Alan Mikuni's avatar

Let me guess: Trump will declare that the Virginia election resulting in a YES for redistricting was "rigged".

Katrina Nuciforo's avatar

Well if he didn’t win of course counting one two three RIGGED

The Spirit of Trump airlines is coming soon.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I would NEVER sit my ass on a Trump plane ever!

Linda (Evanston IL)'s avatar

No one will book a flight on trump spirit airlines. It would crash, just like what trump has done to the global economy

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Yeah, especially with Duffy's AI shit instead of Air Traffic Controllers.

Mauimom's avatar

And the "airline" would have no funds to pay any survivers.
