They don't believe in democracy.

Which is why they're working so damn hard to make certain your vote isn't counted.

I didn't say it. THEY did. Over and over.

Good people say: I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy

Well, I'm not a good person and Mitch McConnell is EXACTLY who I'd wish every misery on. He's a power mad obstructionist who destroyed SCOTUS and wrecked the Senate. He's a hateful evil immoral unethical son of a bitch.

Idalia is a major Cat 4 hurricane. The storm surge will be huge. Winds are going to be devastating. Landfall is imminent. If you're in the path, you need to get the hell off social media and heed the warnings, follow directions, and don't put yourself or others in harm's way.

From my DMs or Why MAGAs condemn any education above 6th grade as "Elitism"

Even the spiders are putting up hurricane supplies.

First storm of the season approaching the Florida Panhandle, Folks. If you're in the path, get ready.

Notice how Republicans are threatening REVENGE? How they're threatening to lock up Democrats in retaliation? How they're promising to start another civil war in retribution for arresting Trump?

They're NOT saying he's is innocent.

Just like both of Trump's impeachments, they KNOW he did it. They're just mad we won't let him get away with it.

According to MAGA Republicans, in the upcoming 2024 presidential election, if Democrats don't like the results it is then perfectly legal for President Biden to keep himself in office by overriding voters and sending his own hand selected electors to the Electoral College.

You guys aren't really going to watch this lame ass second stringer debate tonight, are you?

TFW you finally realize Trump isn't going to pay your bail after all.

Who the hell is a Mike Pence supporter?

Pence staffer: How many PENCE 2024 hats should we have printed?

Other Pence staffer: I dunno, ten?

We don't wanna run out.

Okay, 20 then. That should do it.

America's Mayor, Rudy Colludi Giuliani was just arrested in Georgia on numerous felonies. That guy has to be leaking some serious shoe polish today.

But seriously, how's that sedition and election fraud working out for you? Trump gonna pay your legal bills? LOL

Anyone know if Yevgeny Prigozhin had a window seat?

The GOP lineup for 2024 is so terrible, Christie Christie actually looks good in comparison.

I mean, it's so bad, that I expect Mitt Romney to declare his candidacy any moment now.

Eastern Tiger Swallowtail

Feeling marginally better today, so I spent some time in the garden with the Z8 and some fast glass and got this.

Remember, whoever flips on Trump first, gets the best plea deal

Donald Trump is currently facing 91 felony charges in four different criminal cases and he's for damn sure going to be found guilty on at least some of those charges.

Every so-called "Constitutional Conservative" should be right now on every talk show and podcast demanding Trump be barred from ever holding office again.

The fact that they're not, shows you just how big of hypocrites they are and how little they care about either "law and order" or the Constitution.

New essay (sort of) up on Stonekettle Station

Trump needs to be locked up pending trial, without access to the internet and social media and his mob of brown shirted thugs.

Any MAGA who threatens the jury, the judge, the court, or anyone else needs to be likewise locked up and charged with terrorism.

A former President led a violent insurrection, attempted to overthrow the US Government, has been indicted on 91 felony charges, is the leading Republican candidate for 2024, and is currently threatening violence against Americans.

Twitter: Just ignore him.

Irony jumps the tracks, careens down the embarkment, plows through a circus tent, runs over a mink farm, and slams into the river where it busts into flames, rolls over and explodes, raining down burning weasels and flaming clown shrapnel across the countryside.
