 Hey, Donnie, you've wrecked one country's economy and damaged countless other countries' -- what're you gonna do now? Sharing KFC with the Saudis is more important than what now?  Well, they knew what they were getting into, OK?  The Leader likes soldiers who don't get killed or all shot up or become unsightly and disabled.  He likes parades. A significant part of the world's population hopes The Leader will choke on a chicken bone, but don't count him out for that peace prize he craves.  Look at these guys, the economic ministers of (left to right)  Japan, South Korea and China.   Earlier this week they put aside differences and signed an agreement to face "emerging challenges" (diplomatic language for "the Americans have lost their minds") with a strengthened trade agreement to challenge idiotic new tariffs.  Could Joe Biden have done that?   Questioned by a reporter as he waddled away for a weekend of cheating at golf and cozying up ...

A bag with different things in it

 Are you liberated?  Have you ever been liberated?  Well, I have. I sat here yesterday and got liberated when The Leader took up his gold Sharpie, the one personally blessed by  Paula White-Cain , and scrawled lines and numbers on a map of the world.  And it was the cause of much merriment, followed by a drop of 1,200 in the stock market, where they have to take dementia seriously.  Fortunately there is no one there who personally experienced October 24, 1929. At long last someone has had the courage to define "groceries."  "An old-fashioned term that we use:  groceries.  I used it on the campaign.  It's such an old-fashioned term but a beautiful term.  Groceries.  It says a bag with different things in it." Person woman man camera TV.  Person woman man camera TV.  He's fine.  Person woman man camera TV.  Were you watching when The Leader began to wander off and had to be led back to the table to sign the ex...

Good trouble

 "Tonight I rise with the intention of getting in some good trouble.  I rise with the intention of disrupting the normal business of the United States Senate for as long as I am physically able.  I rise tonight because I believe sincerely that our country is in crisis, and I believe that not in a partisan sense, because so many of the people that have been reaching out to my office in pain, in fear, having their lives upended -- so many of them identify themselves as Republicans." Cory Booker set out quite consciously to break the non-stop speaking record set in 1957 by Strom Thurmond (to block a civil rights bill, of course) and he did it.  As any MAGA will eagerly remind a black audience, the Democrats were the party of Jim Crow segregation in those days, before Lyndon Johnson overcame his Texas origins and guided the 1964 Civil Rights Act through Congress.  "Lincoln was a Republican!" they love to shout, and then they return to chiseling away at the Fourteent...

Feast of fools

  Kid Rock stops by Golden Office to find out how many Kennedy Center honors he will receive this year.  President Zelensky was heard to exclaim, "Why didn't I dress like that?" Wall Street Journal  editorial board name-checks British socialist:  "George Orwell, call your office.  In the real economic world, a tariff is a tax.  If you raise $600 billion more a year in revenue for the federal government, you are taking that amount away from individuals and businesses in the private economy."  Journal board, you might as well explain it to a goldfish. Podcaster and friend of Kash Patel, Paul Gosar and Kari Lake  Stew Peters  says out loud what most of MAGA is thinking:  It's time for a "final solution" to America's Jewish problem.  Lucky Chuck Schumer is a Palestinian.  The Leader said so. The co-presidents are appalled at France's abuse of  Marine Le Pen  just because she was convicted of embezzling funds from the Euro...
