Alcoholics always say they can stop anytime. Hint: only an alcoholic would say that. the fact he has to stop completely to avoid problems tells you something. AA anybody.
I work overnight so sometimes I’m early with the news of the day or late , depending on how you look at it. If one were to arrive from another planet, and glance at the headlines in the big 3 US papers, all is well and it’s just another day in America. The lack of reporting on the shit show , but the Normalization of Donald Trump is just mind blowing. I literally feel like umm a hamster on a wheel , or wait , a nightmare I can’t wake up from, or wait , Groundhog Day? 49. Whatever half of America what have you done?!
I’m going to say this every chance I get. Drinking, womanizing whatever — Hegseth is not qualified on the merits to hold this job!! it’s like a company with a trillion dollar budget and 3 million employees! He’s never managed a company of 500. Trump wants him there for one reason - to fire the generals/admirals who won’t do his (probably) illegal bidding. Never mind the other 99.4% of the job.
The entirety of Macbeth also had much to say about Trump, his proposed FBI director, and the inevitable end of all these poor players strutting and fretting their hour on the stage: "I have no spur to prick the sides of my intent, but only vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itself, and falls on th'other." I can't help but think that this cabal of cynical opportunists, bureaucrats with sinister designs (Vought) and the malevolent but incompetent true believers will eventually destroy each other through their own petty ambitions and vendettas. But in doing so will they take the country with them?
Tommy Stupidville ihas to be the dumbest SOB in the senate by leaps and bounds. He should maybe read the Constitution where it mentions the senate's advise and consent role... What an azzhat. I am looking forward to Tommy the airhead wearing a tin foil hat while drooling on his senate lectern this next session of congress.
Sadly, the best way to break trump fever is for RFK to push tainted milk and have the populace become ill. Nothing short of another catastrophic event will end this trump clown car madness. As Rick Wilson noted years ago, everything trump touches dies. With the freaks onboard the trump train now, that saying may have to change to everyone trump appoints will cause people to die.
Funny, another very good jobs number from the Biden efforts and not one word. Kind of sums up the media's fascination with trump bucks and its disdain for a job well done...
I am not sure Paul Rosenzweig's article was good idea. Defense attorneys already know everything he wrote, and if a Trump advisor sees it, the thing for Trump to do would be to withdraw Patel and find someone with the same intent who has not trumpeted that intent far and wide.
I think one of the most important actions we can take as an opposition force is to build a legal defense fund for those like Olivia Troye who will be under relentless attack from the new administration and its warriors. That's in addition to supporting organizations working tirelessly against the tsunami of right wing assaults, e.g. Planned Parenthood, NPR, PBS.
George Conway also suggested that rather than having Biden preemptively pardon Trump’s retribution targets, people should contribute to defense funds. Innocent people may not want pardons in advance because it implies they did something wrong.

Anyone with family or friends that are alcoholics ever heard that statement before?
.
Kash Patel, Vivek Ramaswamy, Donalds, Scott, Hailey . . .
l always raise an eyebrow when l see MAGAts embrace their own submissive, shuffling darkies

I worked overnight for 17 years; always happy to run into others who have done, or do, the same. It's a whole different world!
Tuberville is as stupid as they come. As for Fuentes, the last time I checked, that last name was not “White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant. “

Gee the 'Free Speech Absolutists' don't like it when someone says something about THEM that THEY don't like.
One will be too many and a thousand not enough as they say.
The last person to figure he's an alcoholic is thee drunk himself.
As they say just asking questions.

We had a catastrophic event: the COVID pandemic. It did not break the Trump madness.
Seems too many forgot about that destructive and deadly trump period, since they are asking for more of the same..

Makes total sense. An alcoholic saying he doesn’t have a drinking problem at all.
In spite of what his mom went on Fox to say, Hegseth just undermined her by pledging not to drink.
I keep trying to think of a dumber Senator than Tuberville. There have been some more venal, weak, conniving, you name it, but dumber??
He has apparently had some competition over the years (here's a fun story https://whowhatwhy.org/politics/government-integrity/the-ten-dumbest-congressmen/) but I think he's still ahead by a hair.
If Trump 1.0 was Mike Judge's film " Idiocracy" what will Trump 2.0 be?
The Kakistocracy Strikes Back?
Nice!
Does Kash Patel not realize…he is exactly the kind of person the White Supremacists want to get rid of?

Agreed. If no one starts a GoFundMe for Olivia Troye's legal bills, I may have to do it.
There is a GoFundMe for her, that her lawyer (Zaid) posted a link to online recently; on Twitter, IIRC.
