Strong man

January 29, 2026

Victor Wembanyama’s full comments today on the shooting of another civilian by federal agents in Minneapolis:

“PR (Spurs Public Relations) has tried. but I’m not going to sit here and give some politcally correct . Every day I see the news and I’m horrified. I think it’s crazy that some people might make it seem like or make it sound like it’s acceptable, like the murder of civilians is acceptable….. It’s terrible. I know I’m a foreigner, but I live in this counrtry and I am concerned.”

–

Then Wemby went out and led the Spurs to a big comeback win over the Houston Rockets. (28 pts, 16 rebounds, 5 blocks.)

Hope Gregg Popovich was watching the comments and his play.

–

Trump is bragging that he will give every U.S Citizen child now born in the US $1000 in a “Trump account.”

$1000 won’t even cover a month of infant child care in the US.

–

It’s a scary time to be a person of color in the United States

But for someone looking for a safe space for a couple hours, maybe buy a theater ticket to the Melania movie. No one will be in there.

–

In case it’s a matter of not learning geography, here’s a map for DHS/ICE

Note the Southern Border. Minnesota is far enough but of the lower 48 no state is further than Maine.

Life in right-wing bubble:
Daily Mail headline today

“”Shameful past of madman who squirted Ilhan Omar with syringe, as his lengthy rap sheet & VERY woke children are revealed
Andy Kazmierczak, 55, is a MAGA faithful w/ liberal children & lengthy rap sheet.”

–

The man regularly posted pro-Trump stuff on social media, but so i’s his KIDS’ fault?

–

–

Louisiana Senator GOP John Kennedy says of immigrants “no one is above the law.”

Could some reporter ask Kennedy how we’ve missed his outrage over all the million and billion dollar fraudsters who Donald has pardoned?

–

Melania actually said today on Fox News of her husband “He’s a unifier not just here in the United States.”

This is true, he has unified most of the free world against the United States of America.

–

Meanwhile, forget undocumented immigrants, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said state would investigate public agencies & universities that employ those with H-1B visas.

Well this ought to be great for the Texas tech industry

–

Now some have seized on a video of Alex Pretti kicking out an ICE tail light after Renee Good’s death as justification for his being shot to death.

So car damage is a capital offense?

Unless you’re MAGA.

Then you can be armed with a knife trying to break into House Chambers at the US Capitol and when you get shot resisting police orders you become a martyr.

–

Some days it feels like there is no good news.

But today.

  1. Wordle in 1.
  2. Adam Kinzinger started following me
  3. San Antonio Spurs come back from down 16 to beat the Houston Rockets.

Small and not so small mercies.

Your cheating .. heart?

January 28, 2026

Bill Belicheck is apparently unhappy he wasn’t a first ballot Hall of Fame

Reportedly asking an associate? “Six Super Bowls isn’t enough?

Spygate (x2) Deflategate? (That we know of)

Belicheck is just lucky he’s not dealing with baseball Hall of Fame Voters.

–

Hopeful moment. Stuck at airport hotel with old/ college friend last night & ended up watching football at bar with man from Colorado.

He told us at one point he voted for Trump 3 times, but now regrets it. Said Donald is just out for himself and not helping anyone & ICE is crazy.

–

MAGAs are gonna boycott the NBA after the players came out with a statement against ICE?

Awesome, this is gonna to make attending games so much better for the rest of us.

–

So Velveeta Voldemort is pouting & staying home and ICE agents “will conduct enforcement operations during Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 at Levi’s Stadium.”

The cheapest pair of tickets for the game is $13,000

Think ICE will arrest a single wealthy ticket holder?

—

–

ICE is sending agents to Super Bowl, where ticket prices are $6,000 & up & hotel prices are through the roof.

So seriously there aren’t thousands of other US locations with more undocumented immigrants where ICE invasion wouldn’t waste tax dollars on overpriced hotel rooms?

–

Happiest people about the Melania movie might be those involved with Disney’s “John Carter.”

Because the answer to a trivia question is about to change. IYKYK

–

Kristi Noem has joined the circular firing squad in the Trump administration by blaming everyone else for Renee Good and Alex Pretti’s death.

That rings a bit hollow when you’ve BRAGGED about shooting a puppy “I hated that dog.”

–

Stephen Colbert on Melania movie flop, $40 million with $35 million marketing budget

“Usually to see Trump bomb this hard you have to be on a Venezuelan fishing boat.”

–

Karoline Leavitt says “When the President closes his eyes he’s actually actively listening.”

I loved my grandfather, but I didn’t believe his “resting my eyes” nap excuse either.

–

“US vice-president, JD Vance, and secretary of state, Marco Rubio, to be protected by ICE “bodyguards” at the Olympics.”

Isn’t this what we have Secret Service for? Milan’s mayor calls ICE “a militia that kills.” He is right.

–

No wonder ICE was scared of Alex Pretti’s camera.

If others didn’t have cameras, ICE agents could have shot him in cold blood, as they did, and there would be no proof that he wasn’t assaulting them.

Even witnesses without video proof could be attacked as violent leftists.

–

Would love to see Kristi Noem sent home to South Dakota.

But it’s not her cruelty Trump is angry about. He loves the cruelty. He is just angry about her bad PR messaging that makes him look bad.

Not sticking to sports

January 25, 2026

Well played, NBPA, well played

=

And meanwhile, with Bad Bunny at Halftime and Green Day as the Super Bowl opening act, Donald Trump says he will skip the Super Bowl. Who says there’s no good news these days.

–

Almost feels now like Trump’s ICE is trying for the most outrageous killings possible in Minnesota in hopes of being able to declare martial law.

What’s next, sending Kristi Noem in personally to shoot puppies?

–

So if you are a minor with a gun you’re not allowed to carry, bring it to a protest & fatally shoot protesters, GOP will call you a hero

But if you legally carry a gun to a protest, are stripped of it by ICE, and get fatally shot yourself, GOP will say you deserve it.

–

If you are a white American citizen & have been telling yourself “it can’t happen to me”

Just exactly how many deaths will it take until you know..?

–

“2nd amendment diehards keep saying “for the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep bear Arms, shall not be infringed’

Have any of them responded to US citizen w/ a permit to carry, being disarmed, & then fatally shot in back, by the “free State”?

I’ll wait.

–

And here’s State TV Fox News headline take

“Unrest grows, details emerge after Border Patrol agent shoots, kills suspect with ‘defensive shots'”

The man was lying on the ground, then had been beaten after his gun was taken away.

This was murder. Period.


Many Trump acolytes say that Alex Pretti shouldn’t have had a gun at a protest. So explain why they glorify Kyle Rittenhouse?

–

So let me get this straight. The gospel according to today’s GOP. The 2nd Amendment is the most important part of the constitution. But if you carry a gun that is justification enough to kill you.

Indiana Pacers
10-35, 2-19 Away
Oklahoma City Thunder
37-8, 20-2 Home

And the Pacers just won 117-114 in OKC

Hope this is not ANOTHER sign of the apocalypse.

–

So when is Trump going to Sharpie away the winter storm?

Asking for cult members who still believe he has that power.

–

Trump posted a picture today, presumably a rendering of Greenland where he was walking holding the hand of a penguin holding an American flag.

With the caption

“Embrace the penguin.’


There are no penguins in Greenland.

There are, however, polar bears in Greenland.

Perhaps Donald would like to try to embrace one?

–

Although are we sure that the “embrace the Penguin” idiocy isn’t signaling that the next distraction from the Epstein Files will be Donald insisting the US needs to acquire Antarctica?

In one of Gavin Newsom’s great trolls of Trump today he talked about living rent free in Donald’s head

Should we tell Donald Eric Swalwell is running to be your successor?

Or would it make his head explode? Don’t want to be accused of elder abuse.

–

Immigration visas have now been paused for 75 countries.

INCLUDING for children that American families are trying to adopt.

Any reporter actually dare to ask the President or any member of his “pro-family” administration about that?

–

Not usually an opera fan, but I admire greatness.

“Renée Fleming regrets that, due to a scheduling conflict, she must withdraw from her May 2026 concerts at the Kennedy Center”

Got it, it turns out to be a week she planned to do her nails. Slowly. Well played Ms. Fleming.

–

Trump’s healthcare plan to throw a couple thousand dollars at Americans so they can buy their own healthcare is as if your car was totaled and the insurance company says “here’s enough money to buy a couple tires”

It’s all relative

January 23, 2026

Nothing against Carlos Beltran, the only man named in the Astros sign stealing scandal, being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame

He acknowledged the cheating “We did take it to a different level, meaning on finding ways to beat the opposing team…. but “that doesn’t really define the person that I am.”

And is sign-stealing the same as steroids? . No. but remember, in that era, the pitchers players like Bonds faced were also often using steroids too.

–

Has Donald threatened to sue the Oscars for not nominating him for an award yet?

–

Trump is suggesting the US invoke Article 5 for NATO on the Southern Border, at the same time he puts a huge percentage of ICE agents (and taxpayer dollars) into Minnesota and Maine?

Could any states in the continental US be further from the Southern border?

–

Again, how many people, Republicans, Democrats, independents… many who’ve been respected on a bipartisan basis, have to be lying for Donald Trump to be tellling the truth?

–


How many Republicans who feared for their lives on January 6, are now so fearful for their jobs that they are bending the knee to the mad King who pretends the violent rioters were patriots?

–

Eric Swalwell today made point more should hear. “My Republican colleagues are lucky they are not under oath, because they would have to tell you what they really think of Trump….they call him crooked, cruel, a scumbag….But when the lights go on & cameras roll, they shrink.”

–

JD Vance just said of the economy “You don’t turn the Titanic around overnight.” Not sure what his speechwriter majored in, but it sure wasn’t history.

–

Ted Lieu ” How scared are Republicans of talking of the Epstein Files? They are so scared they are calling Jack Smith… they would rather talk about the criminality of Trump in trying to steal an election than about his assocation with Jeffrey Epstein & his pedophila ring.”

–

The “Board of Peace” almost makes me miss the “Axis of Evil.’

–

Fox News headline “Trump’s peace initiative draws 17 nations while UK refuses over Russia concerns.”

Even Fox doesn’t dare list the countries. The only ones in Europe are Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey.

–

So “two weeks” for the Greenland deal to be released.

More like “two weeks until we figure something else to catch the media’s attention and divert it away from the Epstein files.” #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Approaching medals?

January 22, 2026

–

Two weeks until the start of the Winter Olympics. That wonderful time every four years when people who can’t get across the ice at a holiday rink suddenly become experts on a triple or quadruple lutz.

–

Commissioners of the NBA, NFL, MLB & NHL are being called to the Oval Office by next week “to present activation plans for the 250th anniversary of the United States.”

Possible translation “He will demand all of them give him a trophy.”

–

Trump claims that federal workers instead of working were at the ballfield or out playing golf After he spent the weekend at taxpayer expense playing golf and going to a football game. SNL cold open writers are going “We give up.”

Minnesota, now Maine.

Could he find states further from the Southern Border? What’s next? ICE invasion of Hawaii?

–

Trump has become the man that if you’re visiting an elderly relative in a nursing home and you see him rambling and talking to himself, you try to get out of his sight before he comes in your direction.

–

Feb 2023. Fox News headline “Biden stumbles over word in Philadelphia speech: ‘Recalibration’

Jan 2026: President refers repeatedly to “Greenland” as “Iceland” Fox News – crickets

–

Wonder how many members of the Trump administration shorted the stock market for one day before his TACO on the tariffs?

Fox News headline:

“The era of liberal talk shows only inviting Dem candidates is over, FCC says” They’re upset that late night hosts have too many liberals. Waiting for GOP wannabes & current administration to accept being on Colbert, Kimmel & Fallon.

Bring. It. On.

–

Wrap your head around this one. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who thinks it’s normal for Americans to have 5 + homes for retirement, just called California Gov. Gavin Newsom “economically illiterate.”-

–

Jane Fonda tonight on Stephen Colbert. “They are kidnapping people, they are illegally deporting American citizens… all kinds of really bad things are happening. It’s not a question of right or left, I don’t care what party you belong to. It’s a question of right or wrong.”

–

So what crazy thing will Donald Trump do Thursday to distract from Jack Smith’s testimony? Sorry. No prize or trophy for the correct answer. But winning answer gets serious bragging rights.

–

A normally non-political friend summed it up So basically Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney gave the Hugh Grant from ” Love Actually” speech for real.

–

Usha Vance is pregnant.

To celebrate maybe her husband could push the Trump administration to ensure that ALL pregnant women have access to healthcare?

Oh, who am I kidding?

–

After this week’s press conference and speech in Davos it is increasingly obvious that the man in the White House with the nuclear codes is not a man most Americans would trust in their neighborhood to water their plants.

January 20, 2026

Sometimes Heisman voters get it wrong. Not I think this year.

–

But for how many NFL football fans is this postseason coming down to “Who do we hate the least?”

–

As Sean Payton knows, Drew Brees is only three years older than Philip Rivers. Just saying

Well, all those who complained that Bo Nix wasn’t an NFL quarterback, now will see if the Denver Broncos can get to the Super Bowl with someone who REALLY isn’t an NFL quarterback. (at least not for the past 2 years.)

–

Meanwhile, it has just been announced that Green Day will perform at the Super Bowl Opening Ceremony on February 9.

Welcome to the resistance, NFL

–

MAGA is losing their minds over Green Day being added to the Super Bowl artists performing

Wait until they play “American Idiot.”

–

US Cities hosting World Cup: Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, NYC/New Jersey, Philadelphia, San Francisco Bay Area, & Seattle.

ALL these cities have Democratic mayors. Why, knowing Trump’s ICE war on Dems, would ANY foreigners risk attending?

–

Lebron James was not selected as an All-Star Starter for the first time in over 20 years. And yet he didn’t throw a tantrum and call the NBA illegitmate or threaten to invade anyone over it.

–

Is there a company in the DC area who can print out a giant banner with Trump’s letter to the Norwegian prime minister on it, and hang it from the U.S. Capitol so no Republican in Washington can claim they haven’t seen it? I’d join the Go Fund Me for that. Who’s with me?

–

Donald Trump had his motorcade make a 9 minute stop at a furniture store in West Palm Beach on his way back to Mar-A-Lago. Was he looking for a trophy case for all the medals he’s planning to extort? Or given his age & health, did he need a quick potty break?

–

If MLK Jr’s family offered Trump one of Dr. King’s many awards – maybe his Time Magazine 1963 “Man of the Year” cover, or his Grammy, THEN would Donald issue a Presidential proclamation on MLK day?

–

Regarding some hotels canceling ICE bookings: Hotels cater to business travelers & tourists, often from out of state or US.

Can’t imagine being hotel guest, regardless of politics, & knowing if you simply run into angry ICE agent (or someone who hasn’t met their quota), on your way to breakfast or ice machine you could be detained or arrested.

–

Every GOP Senator who thinks that selling their soul to appease Trump will benefit them in the long run should take a long hard look at what happened to Bill Cassidy.

–

The real reason Trump is endorsing Julia Letlow for Bill Cassidy’s Senate seat: “Letlow has said she would have joined other GOP representatives in objecting to the results of the 2020 presidential election in Congress, had she been in office at the time.”

–

So Trump is going after GOP Senator Bill Cassidy by endorsing Julia Letlow, who got into Congress when her 41 yr-old husband died of COVID. I know some have tried, but maybe it’s worth revisiting a conversation about US Senate run with former Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards?

–

Some Republicans want a bill to require Americans to have a passport to vote.

As a believer in voting rights I think this is wrong.

But most Americans with passports are Democrats. As my late great Stepmother used to say “humanity survives in large part because criminals are stupid.”

–

Trump fundraising email Saturday night:

Sat, Jan 17 at 5:13 PM “It’s Trump. I’m in the Oval Office, & I can’t stop thinking about you.” Except he’s at Mar-A-Lago. Losing track of where you are is a sign of advanced dementia..

Long weekend

January 17, 2026

The NFL will honor the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. by displaying “Choose Love” in the end zones and on helmet decals for all divisional round playoff games this weekend.

Waiting for the GOP rebuttal.

–

“Choose Love” and “It Takes All of Us” will appear on opposite end zones at the Super Bowl next month. Host teams will sel

The College Football Championship game is January 19 in Miami, Florida. Not too far from Mar-A-Lago

So what trophy will Donald demand the NCAA give him for showing up?

–

Trump claims he will put a 10% tariff on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, UK, Netherlands and Finland on Feb 1 over acquiring Greenland. Is there a petty little b*tch award, and can Donald get a lifetime achievement version?

–

Anyone talked to Louisiana GOP Senator John Kennedy this morning? Senate Republican: Greenland invasion would be ‘weapons-grade stupid’

–

Apparently ICE agents ate lunch at a small local Mexican restaurant in Minnesota, enjoyed their meal, then came back later that night as the restaurant was closing down and arrested the people who had served them.

How do these people sleep at night?

Oh, I know, upside down and hanging from the ceiling.

–

USA Today headline kind of sums it up: “DOJ begins probe of governor, mayor in Minnesota after killing of Renee Good.” Not being probed by DOJ? The man who fired the shots that killed Renee.

–

Hey MAGA Undecided if you are upset that Trump’s DOJ hasn’t released the Epstein files? Read ‘Nobody’s Girl” by the late Virginia Giuffre. Maybe read it out loud at home to your family if you have kids. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

 

Stephen Colbert: “Germany announced they are sending troops to Greenland. Making it the first time in human history anyone ever said “good news, the German troops are on the way.””

–

Serious question: As DOJ increasingly is pushing Trumped up and nonsensical investigations against his enemies, how long until administration needs to waive the bar exam requirement for lawyers? Because they won’t find enough stupid and/or craven prosecutors otherwise.

–

Dr. Oz actually says it’s “pretty cool” that since many areas in Alabama don’t have OB GYNs that women can get ultrasounds done by robots.

Two things. 1. Pennsylvania, you actually COULD have done worse than Senator Fetterman

2. Pennsylvania, you could have chosen Conor Lamb

–

Former governor of Puerto Rico Wanda Vázquez Garced pleaded guilty last year to accepting a campaign finance violation from a Venezuelan banker in 2020.

She also endorsed Trump in 2024. He just pardoned her. If you praise or bribe Dear Leader, crime does pay.

–

Millions of Americans went through hell to get Real ID to fly: birth certificates, social security numbers, 2 proofs of residency – utility bills, mortgage statements etc. Plus in person DMV meeting/fingerprinting. But Trump’s untrained ICE says, nah, we don’t trust them.

–

So will the US actually pull out of NATO because Donald Trump is terrified of releasing the Epstein Files?

–

Funny thing- as most people approach 80 years old they downsize – getting rid of things since “you can’t take it with you.” But Donald seems increasingly fixated on acquiring gaudy “stuff.” What’s he planning, something like a pyramid to function someday as his temple tomb?

–

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr “A good mother shouldn’t trust experts. Instead she should do her own research.” If he really wants to make the point, the next time RFK Jr has a medical issue hope he follows his own advice and tries to heal himself.

–


Tom Emmer is now doing Trump’s bidding and calling for Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to resign. I’m so old I remember when Donald referred to him as ” RINO Tom Emmer” and scuttled him being chosen House Speaker. Wonder what price Emmer got for his soul?

Later and later

January 15, 2026

One of the worst things about Stanford being in the ACC. When the Cardinal is at home and upsets a top conference team, like UNC Wednesday night, most East Coast fans (& media) are already asleep

–

Was looking at Stanford’s men’s basketball schedule and noticed most of the players had declared college majors.

In the days of transfer portals and NIL’s seems so… quaint.

Pam Bondi said tonight that she just fired the six Minneapolis prosecutors who quit yesterday.

When Trump fires her will Pam Bondi say later that SHE quit?

–

To anyone saying shooting of Renee Good was justified. Videos I have seen don’t indicate that to me. But okay, isn’t this what investigations are for? If DOJ truly believes officer was in the right, they should have no problem w/ full investigation & trial, working with Minnesota law enforcement.

–

Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry is trying to extradite a California doctor for mailing abortion pills.

California Governor Newsom denied him.

Landry “Louisiana has a zero tolerance policy for those who subvert our laws, seek to hurt women, and promote abortion. I know Gavin Newsom supports abortion in all its forms, but that doesn’t work in Louisiana. We are unapologetically pro-life.:

Meanwhile, now that he’s caused every Planned Parenthood in the state to close, Jeff Landry has no problem of women being hurt or even dying from a lack of prenatal care or even basic healthcare including mammograms.

–

Do we think Donald knows Greenland isn’t as big as it appears on flat maps? Asking for a country ruled by a madman obsessed with size.

–

CNN poll 56% of Americans think fatally shooting Renee Good was inappropriate use of force. Only 26% approved. What makes that number even more significant. Over a third of Americans get most of their news from Fox News.

–

Meanwhile, just how many Americans is this administration willing to have ICE kill to distract from the Epstein files.

–

Great MSN interview with a Greenlander. “You can’t buy people. You can maybe buy the Presidency of the United States but you can’t buy us.”

–

Challenge anyone to watch both Senator Mark Kelly and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth speak for five minutes. Then say who looks more like a leader.

–

Orbin Mauricio Hernandez Serrano, who videos showed beaten unconscious by ICE Sunday at St Paul gas station, is apparently alive (now) & being detained in El Paso. His sister said he just moved to MN from Texas. Sadly had he stayed in red state ICE probably would’ve ignored him.

–

On 10th anniversary of Citizens United, Senators Mark Kelly, Sheldon Whitehouse, Amy Klobuchar & Cory Booker, among others, spoke on Senate Floor about campaign finance reform. You know who didn’t speak against unlimited money in politics? Every single Senate Republican.

–

In case anyone has forgotten December 19 was the deadline to release the Epstein Files.

Random number stuff

January 14, 2026

We are less than half way through the NBA season

We are less than a month away from pitchers and catchers reporting.

And there are WAY too many damn channels to try to watch the NFL playoffs.

(If the NFL could they’d split the Super Bowl into one quarter on broadcast, one on cable, and two quarters streaming.)

–

As James Comer threatens to hold Bill Clinton in contempt for not being willing to testify PRIVATELY on Epstein, (Bill says he is willing to testify publicy) perhaps Clinton should say he’ll come in on the same day as Trump.

TJ Sabula was the UAW worker who called Donald Trump a “predator protector.” (Prompting the President to flip him off. Sabula has been suspended.

–

Hey Marco Rubio. This you last week? “Well, I mean, broadly, we’re concerned about any place first and foremost where American free speech could be implicated.”

–

And think I’m ready to make a donation to any politician willing to bring TJ Sabula as their guest at the State of the Union.

–

Amy Klobuchar pointing out, there are more than twice as many ICE agents in Minneapolis than there are police, who are overextended and spending a lot of time trying to protect residents from ICE.

When the POLICE are publicly on the side of the liberals in town….

–

Meanwhile in Minneapolis, Nazis with a dose of McCarthyism “Sigüenza, a U.S. citizen, detained temporarily by ICE, said an immigration officer who questioned him Sunday even offered him money or legal protection if he gave up the names of organizers or neighbors who are in the country illegally.”

–

SIX DOJ Prosecutors have apparently resigned in Minnesota over Trump administration’s push after Renee Good’s shooting, to probe her widow… Yes, the woman who saw her wife shot before her eyes. There is no bottom.

–

Would James Comer like to explain publicly why he HAS to have Bill Clinton come to testify on the Epstein files but hasn’t subpoenaed ANY prominent Republican? Asking for a country. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

–

Trump calls his invasion of Venezuela, “The most brilliant attack we’ve had in 100 years.” Leaving aside Obama’s successfully taking out Osama Bin Laden…thinking Eisenhower with D-Day would like a word.

–

So Donald posting on Truth Social to Iranian protestors “Take over your institutions.” While in the USA he thinks people should be killed for being ‘”disrepectful…” Meanwhile, #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Doing their “own research?”

January 13, 2026

The probable final pass of Aaron Rodgers’ career was a pick six.

Guess he wasn’t “immunized” against making bad decisions on the field either. #HOUvsPIT

–

So who had University of Miami as the last team in Florida playing postseason football?

–

The Kennedy Center posted as the (illegitimate) Trump Kennedy Center that they “remembered Bob Weir,” inducted as a honoree just last year.

Uh, not a Deadhead but Bob Weir

1. would not have accepted Kennedy Center Honors from Trump

2. would not have attended any events with the Trump name on the center.

So maybe take Bob Weir’s name out of your bleeping mouth?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

–

Karoline Leavitt today ” shows you where the modern-day democratic party stands today when they want to protect pedophiles over law-abiding American citizens and our the brave women and men who serve in law enforcement.

KKKaroline says Democrats want to protect pedophiles? Orwell would be proud #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

–

Chuck Grassley, 92, is rambling today about how Americans don’t need Obamacare. Leaving aside that Grassley has had great Senate health insurance for 45 years, he’d have been eligible for Medicare 27 years ago.

–

Fox Headline

New bill would realize Trump’s Greenland ambitions with 51st US state.” WTAF? The bill is from Florida GOP Rep Randy Fine. As insane is this is, does Fine realize Greenland Senators would absolutely be Democrats?

–

Daily Mail today has a headine

“The reason you crave more sweets as you age… and the surprising link it has to dementia.” They post it with a picture of Joe Biden. But really, Diet Coke tastes sweeter than regular Coke… And Trump drinks about 12 Diet Cokes a day…

Glimmers of sunshine?

January 12, 2026

Pitchers and catchers report in about four weeks…

–

And just saying.

The seven NFL teams who have advanced in the NFL playoffs pending the Monday night wild card game are ALL from blue states.

Almost as if God is both p*ssed off and a football fan.

–

Even George W. Bush only said “mission accomplished.” He didn’t declare himself the “acting President of Iraq.”

Tonight Trump posted on Truth Social that he was “Acting President of Venezuela”

The Golden Globes were Sunday night tonight. Could the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), offer Donald Trump an award if he simply resigned?

At this point if a child had a lemonade stand with a sign saying proceeds would be to elect Democrats in 2026, pretty sure Trump would defend any ICE agent who shot the kid for his or her attitude. I wish I were joking

–

And maybe lost in the insanity: Trump Organization is opening new luxury golf club complex in one of Saudi Arabia’s largest government-owned real estate developments, 1 of 2 Trump projects underway in the kingdom. So who cares if MBS ordered a journalist killed? Quid pro quo

–

Trump adminstration has opened a criminal investigation into Fed Chair Jerome Powell over whether Powell lied to Congress about the scope of renovation of the Fed’s Washington headquarters..

Lying about renovations?

July 31, 2025. Trump said his ballroom “won’t interfere with the current building. … It will be near it but not touching it. It pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of. It’s my favorite place. I love it.”.

Jean Smart – BEFORE she won the Golden Globe tonight. “I don’t feel that my opinion matters more than anyone else’s… But I feel if you have the chance to speak up… you should use it.” #Legend

Knowing the score, if you can find it.

January 11, 2026

I’m so old I can remember when NFL playoff games at least were on actual regular channels.

–

So former Indiana Gov Mike Pence refuses Trump’s illegal order to overturn the election.

Indiana GOP state representatives refuse Donald’s gerrymandering demands.

Indiana Senator Todd Young votes against war with Venezuela without Congressional consent.

Go Hoosiers!

–

And

Trump is furious at Mike Pence. Trump is furious with Indiana GOP state senators who voted down his gerrymandering. Trump is furious at Todd Young who voted against him on Venezuela.

If Indiana wins CFP college football national championship will he disinvite team from WH?

–

Either way there will be no SEC team in the College Football Championship. What’s next? The CFP committee insisting SEC must have at least six teams in the playoffs plus home field advantage throughout?

–

When NY Times asked if RFK Jr had gone too far in discouraging vaccination, Mr. Trump responded, “No, I think it’s good.” Wonder if Donald has a brain worm too.

Trump just said about Renee Nicole Good “She was an agitator, probably a bad agitator, she wouldn’t stop screaming….”

Renee’s LAST words, said calmly to the officer “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”

Is Trump a liar, or insane?

–

Don’t think the world has noticed how bad things are?

From Travel Weekly (industry publication) not only was “Inbound travel from Canada down 24%, inbound travel overall was down 6.3%.
Per US Travel Association “it makes US the only nation in the world seeing a reduction in travel in 2025.”

–

-Seen on Twitter:

Trump would rather start World War III than release the Epstein files…

Hey Republicans. Trump is allegedly bombing people to save Christians. Renee Nicole Good was a Christian. Did missionary work in Northern Ireand.

@FoxNews, why aren’t you covering this?

–

President Grandpa now is losing it so much he’s recycling insults:

“What a beautiful place, but it’s being destroyed. It’s got an incompetent governor fool. I mean, he’s a stupid person…”

Not California this time, but Minnesota.

–

“I know he knows better.”

Amy Klobuchar to Jen Psaki -being more than charitable about VP JD Vance.

Vance has 3 kids, including a 6 year old.

He knows better.

Thomas More “It profit not a man if he gains the whole world if he lose his soul.”

But for the vice presidency?

–

Meanwhile Fox News headline:

“Trump says US is making moves to acquire Greenland ‘whether they like it or not'”

“I moved on Greenland like a bitch, but she was married to Denmark…”

–

So after Ken Jennings made some anti-Trump social media posts, some MAGA folks are now saying they are going to boycott Jeopardy.

Don’t you have to watch a show first in order to boycott it?

–

GOP keeps pretending mail-in voting isn’t secure or worse “fake.”
If anything it’s checked more carefully in California. As I will keep saying, husband few years ago scrawled signature on mail-in ballot.
Got returned to him. “Your signature doesn’t match. Please sign legibly & remail asap or in person”

The good the bad and the really ugly

January 8, 2026

San Antonio Spurs just beat the Lakers handily. After losing to the Grizzlies.

Victor Wembanyama talking two days ago about the Spurs’ frustrating tendency to play down to competition: “The good this is, we can match up with everybody and look anybody in the eye. The bad thing is, we look everybody in the eye.”

–

Stanford football fans remember this. There were years the Cardinal would beat a team like Oregon and USC, then lose to San Jose State.

–

Just saying, while RFK Jr, says we should eat meat and fat and avoid sugar, a Big Mac has as much sugar as two Oreos.

–

Remember when Kristi Noem was supposedly on Trump’s VP list until she bragged in a book about shooting her dog? Beginning to think that killing actually raised her in Donald’s estimation.

–

So if Renee Nicole Good instead of trying to drive away from ICE agents had jumped on the window of an ICE building with agents inside and tried to break in with a knife would Trump supporters be eulogizing her?

–

A 30 something Chicago friend of mine helped stand peacefully outside her child’s school last year to protect kids from being snatched by ICE to lure the parents. Told her good for her. She did say at one point “They won’t shoot me, I’m white.” Guess we’ve sadly proven that wrong..

–

Trump administration is considering offering the people of Greenland $10,000 to $100,000 per person to vote to secede and join the United States.

To join a country where random Federal agents with limited training can shoot you dead if you make them angry? Thinking hard pass..

–

In NY Times interview “Trump did not give precise time range for how long USA would remain Venezuela’s political overlord. Would it be 3 months? 6 months? A year? Longer? “I would say much longer,” Trump replied. How long until he sends US military to fight & die there?

–

How rest of world sees us:

BBC : “Trump withdraws US from key climate treaty & dozens of other groups White House says decision was taken because those entities “no longer serve American interests” Half of those 66 groups were focused on climate change. Some on preventing sexual violence.

We have become a sh*thole country

Trump just said he’ll take steps to keep large institutional investors from buying single family homes. Shares of Blackstone, largest such investor, fell 9% Blackstone CEO Steve Schwarzman is a leading Trump donor So what donation or prize will Schwarzman need to give to Trump to get an exemption?

–

Noem “The officer was hit by the vehicle. She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released, but he’s going to spend some time with his family.” Translation, we want him out of public eye until he can claim he was miraculously healed.

–

Politics aside, if Trump will lie about a fatal shooting that we could all see with our own eyes… What else does he lie about?

–

“I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year’s fashions” Lillian Hellman, 1952, to the Un-American Committee of the US House of Representatives. Would that GOP members of Congress had her conscience, or cojones.

One week in…

January 7, 2026

Already, feeling like the longest year in US history.

Where’s another PopTarts bowl when we need one.


Between Mike Pence and the GOP state senators I am actually rooting for Indiana to win the National College Football Championship.

–

This is the week when NFL coaches whose teams underperformed in 2025 get fired, even with a long-term contract. Shame in the US we can’t do that with our President.

Hey GOP members of Congress, none of you would trust Donald Trump to feed your cat for a weekend. Or probably even water your plants. Why are you trusting him to be a de facto King?.

–

Note to Republicans and Trump toadies saying “Greenland SHOULD be part of the United States,” the country actually closest to Greenland is Canada.

–

Meanwhile just because the Venezuelan people didn’t want to be run by their own crazy dictator, doesn’t mean they want to be run by America’s crazy dictator.

–

Marco Rubio is claiming that he cares about protecting free speech for Americans. He won’t even speak out to protect free speech for one of his former Senate colleagues, Mark Kelly

Trump was right about something, he is “Little Marco.”

The problem is that Trump has gotten into his head that the ‘Donroe Doctrine’ is his thing. He’s now very focused on this. And it’s hard to come to an agreement with the Danes when Trump thinks he can just take it.”

Is it time to start checking for brain worms?

–

It’s not just the ACA subsidies. Trump’s petty revenge against blue states by cutting off money will make it almost impossible for Republicans to win.

–

Among the campaign issues of 2024, I somehow missed the “cost be damned, morals be damned, the US has the imperial right to take over anyone we want..”

“Stephen Miller Asserts U.S. Has Right to Take Greenland”

–

GOP Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla tweeted this weekend “Democrats have total egg on their face[s] from previous operations saying we’re going to be in these protracted long-war operations that did not take place. President Trump is not the protracted war president.” Maybe bookmark this tweet?


Whatever else Trump is throwing at the wall- wars, invasions. attacks on immigrans as well as Americans who disagree with him #EpsteinTrumpCoverUp is still trending on Twitter-

–

Have heard Senator Amy Klobuchar talk of how on January 6 she and her fellow Senators were in hiding in fear of their lives.

She was especially concerned about some of the older Senators and Capitol Police break into the cafeteria to get food for everyone.

Republican Senators were there. But sniveling cowards now won’t stand up for the truth.

Assuming even most of the older ones remember…

–

And upon further reflection. Yes, I’d love Amy Klobuchar to lead Democrats in the Senate, at the very least. But watching the GOP led-Senate kowtow to a would-be King, short-term Amy may be able to mount a more effective resistance as Governor of a purple state.

Outrages big and small

January 4, 2026

Plenty of talk on how neither the 8-8 Buccaneers nor Panthers deserve a playoff home game just because they won a bad division

The New Orleans Saints, 11-5 in 2011, but who had to travel to Seattle to play the 7-9 Seattle Seahawks, would have agreed. #WhoDat

—

Many fans are complaining that the 49ers and Seahawks had to play a Saturday night game after both teams had previous games on short rest.

And some ask, how could the NFL schedule the game Saturday? The answer probably is, because they couldn’t do Friday. #Ratings

–

My father made us children watch CBS News every single night. “And that’s the way it was” to me often meant “we can go now?”

But I remember the casualty counts released by our government every week. “Viet cong” and “US Soldiers/Allies” And the counts were always hugely higher on the “enemy” side. I remember asking my dad. “If we’re killing so many more of them than they are killing of us, why aren’t we winning?”

And his response, well, ‘For one thing, our government is lying.”

Wonder how honest Trump will be about US casualties in Venezuela?

–

JD Vance “Maduro is the newest person to find out that President Trump means what he says.”

He “means what he says?” “I’ll end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours.” “I’ll release the Epstein files?” “I’ll lower prices on day one.” “It won’t interfere with the current building. It’ll be near it but not touching it.”

Two words. “Yeah. Right.”

–

So Trump has decided he can unilaterally take over a country if he doesn’t like their leader or if they don’t do what he wants.

Seriously, how long until NATO countries have to invoke Article 5 against USinvasion? (Denmark, Greenland, another country who won’t kowtow to him?)

–

Trump says the United States is going to run Venezuela? With approval ratings in the 30s, pretty clear Donald can’t even run the United States.

–

Trump: “We’re going to have a presence as it pertains to oil. We’re going to be taking tremendous amount of wealth out of the ground, it will go to the people of Venezuela & also to USA as reimbursement for the damages done to us by that country.”

Boots on the ground, for oil. Didn’t we just do that?

–

Did ANYONE vote for Trump in 2024 because they wanted him to bomb Venezuela? Asking for a country

–

But okay all these MAGA types celebrating Trump’s attack on Venezuela and arrest of Maduro and his wife… Are they volunteering, or volunteering their kids and grandkids, to go fight this war?

–

Yes, Rubio said it: “Are we going to live in a world where some American puts up a social media post,then gets to some airport somewhere & is arrested?” While anyone who wants to visit USA must turn over social media records for 5 yrs. Funeral services for irony are pending

–

Hey media and potentially bored reporters.

So many billionaires, many Trump buddies, celebrated New Year’s Eve in St. Barts, reachable by ferry from St Maarten, by expensive small planes & by private jets.

Flights were canceled Saturday January 3. Many are canceled tomorrow. Wonder how many billionaires might have been warned to leave yesterday.

As 2026 begins…

January 3, 2026

Alabama will be watching at home

Ohio State will be watching at home.

Lane Kiffin will be watching at home.

And Notre Dame has been sulking for a month at home because they didn’t get asked. (And missed out on the Pop Tarts bowl.

It’s going to be a good College Football playoff semi-finals and finals.

–

Meanwhile in college basketball, Stanford upset #16 Louisville and Cal upset Notre Dame. The ACC may not be that happy about picking up what they thought were the dregs of the old Pac 12.

–

From CBS News – “We’ve taken into account the perspective of advocates & not the average American. Or we put too much weight in the analysis of academics or elites & not enough on you.” So yeah, who needs experts – bring on conspiracy theories & what your crazy uncle on FB says.

–

From Heather Cox Richardson: “The Wall Street Journal article was significant not because it acknowledges weaknesses many journalists have already recorded, but because a leading right-leaning media outlet is suggesting that Trump is not up to the task of the presidency.”

–

So apparently Grandpa’s war games now extend to bombing Caracas. Just now far will he go to distract from the Epstein Files?

–

Did ANYONE who volunteered to serve the United Status in the US Military do so with hopes of risking their life in Venezuela? For regime change, oil, and/or distraction from the Epstein files?

–

Still hard to wrap my head around. If you need surgery you want a top doctor. I

If you need lawyer, you want someone who wins.

If you need home repairs you want well-rated construction team.

So why do so many MAGA accept news & so-called “facts” from random conspiracy theorists?

Almost as if there’s something, or rather someone, toxic about the company – From SF Chronicle “Tesla loses title as world’s biggest electric vehicle maker as sales fall for second year in a row”

–

If Donald Trump is so good at these cognitive tests why doesn’t he take one live on TV? #Ratings

–

Now anti-abortion activists want the Environmental Protection Agency to add abortion drug mifepristone to its list of water contaminants. Have they forgotten that Trump wants to eliminate almost all EPA regulations on water and other contaminants?

Overrated?

January 2, 2026

So the ACC has as many teams in the College Football Semifinals (one) as the SEC.

While the Big Ten has two… while one, Oregon, is really a Pac 12 team.

–

Today’s Rose Bowl was about as embarrassing for Alabama as it gets. Well, other than on the Senate Floor when Tommy Tuberville speaks.

Ole Miss vs Alabama at least made sure that one SEC team won today

–

Mike Pence refused to go along with Trump scheme to overturn the election. GOP Senate in Indiana incurred Donald’s wrath by refusing to go along with his gerrymandering plan. So how long until Trump tries to cancel the result of today’s Rose Bowl?

Go Hoosiers.

–

Have no problem saying that fraudsters should go to jail. But if your attitude is that only black and brown fraudsters should go to jail, but rich fraudsters who donate to Trump get pardoned, then yeah, you’re in a cult.

–

Donald Trump in interview says he doesn’t sleep during cabinet meetings. “I’ll just close. It’s very relaxing to me. Sometimes they’ll take a picture of me blinking, blinking, and they’ll catch me with the blink.” I like “someone pushed me into a lifeboat better.”

–

Besides unanimously passed Colorado water bill Trump just vetoed another unanimous bill, sponsored by Florida’s GOP Senators, to expand land reserved for Miccosukee Tribe & help with flooding. He’s mad Native Americans are fighting him on Alligator Alcatraz.

Petty little b*tch

–

While there are plenty of beautiful tropical places, many illionaires spent New Year’s Eve in St Barts. Because their fellow billionaires are the only people who tolerate them? Or because even all the tax breaks in the world weren’t worth putting up with NYE at Mar-A-Lago?

Almost turning the page

December 31, 2025

USC, in leaving for the Big Ten, was probably the single biggest driver in destruction of the Pac 12. So guessing a whole lot of West Coast fans- Stanford, Cal, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Utah, etc are quite happy that TCU won the Alamo Bowl tonight.

–

Meanwhile from SI.com power rankings:

20. New Orleans Saints (6–10)

Last week’s ranking: No. 23
Last week’s result: beat Titans, 34–26
This week: at Falcons 

I have begun my campaign to allow the Saints to be in the playoffs instead of the Buccaneers or Panthers. Tyler Shough in prime time? Who says no? “

–

Instead of flu shot Dr Oz says people should eat healthy food & get plenty of sleep. I’m sure struggling working parents will get right on that.

Espec w/ SNAP cuts.

(Not fan of Senator John Fetterman, who won his Senate seat over Oz, but it could be worse.)

–

Again, Trump is threatening to sue Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who HE appointed, over the cost of central bank renovations going up from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion While Donald’s own ballroom has more than doubled in estimated cost… Math has a liberal bias.

–

If Americans are so happy that Trump put his name on the Kennedy Center why are so many artists cancelling performances? And why aren’t other top artists lining up to perform in their place?

–

So the Kennedy Center is not just hemorrhaging bookings, they aren’t getting any new bookings either? May I suggest a Lara Trump residency? She can have special guests like Kid Rock and Erika Kirk…

–

It’s the John F. Kennedy MEMORIAL Center. There are many memorials in DC to Presidents, of both parties, but has anyone pointed out to Donald Trump that all the Presidents with buildings named after them are dead?

–

Trump’s first veto of his second term kills a UNANIMOUS bill to fund a major drinking water project in Colorado.

He’s mad that Colorado won’t release a convicted felon from prison who tried to help him steal the 2020 election.

And the project is in Lauren Boebert’s district. Even GOP voters pay the price for Donald’s pettiness. (Now will Thune and Johnson have the cojones to bring the bill up again to override Trump’s veto?

Wilted roses

December 30, 2025

Rose Bowl ticket prices on Stubhub starting now about $100

Anyone remember who’s playing in the Rose Bowl?

–

–

On behalf of millions of Americans would like to thank the Cleveland Browns, who have had their usual bad season, for a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers that MIGHT end up knocking “I do my own research” Aaron Rodgers out of the postseason.

Up to you Baltimore Ravens!

–

The FIFA Peace Prize The Israel Price Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center I miss the days when participation trophies were just handed out to kids playing sports.

–

Since every accusation is a confession the apparent lie about Ukraine attacking Putin’s residence probably means that Russia is planning to go after Zelenskyy personally.

Fox News completely dishonest headline “READ IT:Sealed transcript released in alleged Charlie Kirk shooting plot. Click on story & it has nothing to do with a “plot” but rather about a hearing for the SINGLE alleged assassin. But conspiracy theorists won’t read details.

–

While everyone is attacking Ilhan Omar over her supposed net worth, can we talk about Mitch McConnell?

Mitch has never in his life had other than a government job & has been in the Senate for 40 years. His estimated net worth is now approximately $66.13 million .

–

And btw, Ilhan is too far left for me personally, but you are apoplectic about fraud in Minnesota, (which the BIDEN FBI found and charged,) but shrug off the pardons Trump has given to those who stole billions, then you might be a MAGA cult member.

–

Trump & Kennedy Center director Richard Grenell forgot to register their domain names before the change. And former South Park Toby Morton, a creative man, thought ahead & bought “http://trumpkennedycenter.org. ” We should not go to that website; Donald doesn’t like it. Oops.
