5 Reasons the Supreme Court Might Change Its Mind on Same-Sex Marriage That was a depressing article to read. Mostly because everything the author argues seems possible. And it boils down to the idea that Clarence Thomas and his fellow asshole right wingers on SCOTUS perhaps could give a flying fuck what Gay people think. If they did it with abortion, of course they could do it with same sex marriage. Every time I think that America under Trump can't really be THAT bad, it turns out that it really is that bad.

Republicans stormed the Capitol attacking police officers leading to several deaths. A Republican shot in Trump's direction at rally this summer killing a rally-goer. Now a member of a prominent Republican family kills an insurance executive. And Republicans blame (wait for it) . . . Democrats. You can't make this stuff up. Free Luigi!

On July 10, while on his way to work as a security guard at a Southern California cannabis farm, he was detained by federal immigration agents, despite telling them that he is an American citizen and that his wallet and identification were in his nearby car, Retes told me. While arresting him, the agents knelt on his back and his neck, he said, making it difficult for him to breathe. Held in a jail cell for three days and nights, he was not allowed to make a phone call, see an attorney, appear be…

Here's an old question. Can Pete Buttigieg get elected President? He is highly qualified, yet the Dems are good at fucking up elections. That he's gay is still a problem for some. IMO, the best chance for a gay candidate is now, after a GOP President such as 🍊 has fucked up everything. I like the Lovett or Leave It vlog. Here's a comedian take on the question. This is a short clip followed by the long version These young folks and their comedy antics! ❤️ short long

ABOUT THOMSON REUTERS FOUNDATION Far-right Bolsonaro wins Brazil presidential race by Reuters Sunday, 28 October 2018 23:02 GMT (Adds Bolsonaro comments, celebrations outside his house) By Jake Spring and Anthony Boadle BRASILIA, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Far-right lawmaker Jair Bolsonaro won Brazil's presidential election on Sunday, riding a wave of frustration over corruption and crime that brought a dramatic swing to the right in the world's fourth-largest d…

What a worthless weak pussy Trump is. What a worthless weak raping lying piece of shit! Ugh! What a disgrace! Putin-Zelenskyy summit won’t happen, says Germany’s Merz The chancellor’s comment is among the strongest public expressions of doubt yet from a European leader that Trump’s peace push will work It's just pathetic and weak and a disgrace to the US that while our limp weak leader persists in his narcissistic delusions it falls on a European leader to state the obvious truth. You'd think Trump would at least admit it himself. But I guess his mouth is too busy sucking Putin's cock or licking his ass. The whole world, and especially Putin a…

Both North Carolina and Wisconsin are close to 50/50 states. Each of these States were gerrymandered from representative districts to rigged districts by GOP State legislatures. Wisconsin 6 - 2 and North Carolina 10 - 4. Those five rigged districts are the GOP majority in Congress today. Now the Texas GOP has on their agenda making biased districts even more biased than they already are. In a 55/45 State with 38 districts, 25 are GOP and 12 are Democratic, one vacancy. Currently Democrats would need 60+% of the vote to get 19 of the current districts. (The Texas GOP which last year was discussing a rule where no one could win a State-wide office if they didn't …

From CNBC A federal jury on Friday ordered Rudy Giuliani to pay over $148 million to two Georgia election workers for falsely claiming they committed ballot fraud in the 2020 presidential election. The jaw-dropping figure includes $75 million in punitive damages, along with awards of $20 million to each of the two election workers for emotional distress and more than $16 million each for defamation. Giuliani was in court as the verdict was read aloud by a federal judge. The defamation damage award is the latest in a series of legal blows to Giuliani related to his service as the top campaign lawyer for Donald Trump in efforts to reverse the forme…

Lately, our Deporter-in-Chief has been floating the idea of revoking the citizenship of naturalized citizens who have criminal records or who made errors in their application paperwork. It’s supposed to be a ‘civil denaturalization proceeding’ which means the targeted individual has no right to due process. In effect, the President can say “I don’t like you and get out of the country!” Well, this got me thinking about the small handful of people I don’t like and wondering if I could also tell them to get out of the country. Don’t get me wrong. I’m still a believer in the democratic process and I’d be looking for a way to do it within the legal system. So I’v…

The GOP has lost their third special election in Iowa this year, and the fourth was almost a loss. Luckily the MAGA super majority in the Iowa Senate has been broken for the fist time since 2022. America is on the move, and MAGA is in retreat. Jobs and the economy, it's where the Republican record is the weakest. https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/politics/2025/08/26/democrat-catelin-drey-wins-iowa-senate-special-election-defeats-republican-christopher-prosch/85819325007/

This post is a great example of how @bucknaway is using this website to spread Gay hate and anti-Gay lies. And to promote Trump's anti-LGBTQ and anti-diversity agenda. It's the same shit, different day. Some Mom affiliated with an anti-LGBTQ group that attacks National Book Award finalists as "pornography" says some anonymous Mom fears the school is "transitioning" her child. No proof. But hey, I heard that Jews are greedy. I heard that Gay teachers are pedophiles who groom children. We know this playbook well. @bucknaway's hero is Bibi Netanyahu. Who actually can get away with blowing thousands of children into bits of flesh and blood, without intending …

Doug Ford’s landslide win sets stage for Trump fight Yup. it's true. Trump is a stupid vile insolent pig. Somebody should finally smack down the dumb asshole.

We might eventually see if there was any real concern about any classified information John Bolton may or may not have had in his home. As long as he was storing it in a bathroom or the back of a stage in a room that the public had access to - he should be good. Just ask Aileen Cannon.

I'm 100% in favor of Governor Newsom's tactic to counter MAGA gerrymandering in Texas by drawing new California districts for the 2026 midterms. We're fighting against the MAGA war on Democracy. We need to fight hard but also be smart. Yet some very learned pundits, the League of Women Voters and various libtard friends of mine have all spoken against the Mid-cycle Redistricting initiative. "We should demonstrate integrity." Is it the same old problem with the Dems? Not willing to cede any of their sacred ground, even if it means losing to Trump? Are these just a bunch of rich fuckers that are immune to any of the fallout under fascist rule, not…

All the indicators are showing the job creation, which Trump has already tanked over the last three months, will continue to fall for the balance of the year. Consumer confidence is at an almost all-time low, Nebraska is looking at billions of dollars of deficits due to Trump's war on American agriculture, and inflation continues to climb, unlike our former Western partners. Weak on the economy. Weak on foreign relations. Weak on promoting American interests both at home and overseas. He is a weak president.

I almost cried when I saw that tonight. For the first time, Trump has net disapproval. The poor guy is slowing down. It took him a month longer to get to this point than when first blew his job in 2017. And on a night when he brought down the house with his wit, charm, and searing intelligence, no less! It is so unfair. He is so perfect. And, speaking of perfect, I was thinking @Barknaway has been doing a perfect job of spreading pro-Trump hate, lies, and ignorance. How could his strategy of plastering this website with hate, lies, and ignorance possibly have not worked? It's so unfair. He's the smartest impulsively reacting dog since Pavlov was …

What a worthless piece of shit POTUS! I'd call Trump evil, but he is unworthy of the term. Genocide Man in Russia and the Genocide Jew in Israel earned the title "evil". One can argue W earned it in Iraq, with the genocide or at least ethnic cleansing and fanatical ISIS slaughter he set off. Trump is just a moronic dumb ass. I guess maybe that's better? Trump, escalating war of words with Russia’s Medvedev, mobilizes two nuclear submarines Why is Trump even engaging Genocide Man's Genocide Boy? What a weak dumb ass! His ego is so big and is his brain and cock are so small that Trump doesn't even realize he's supposed have his Hillbilly Boy do th…

Murkowski rebukes Trump over Ukraine: ‘Walking away from our allies’

The fentanyl issue is not the reason donOLD is threatening Canada with tariffs. The real reason donOLD wants to impose tariffs on Canada is because of the harsh weather they send us. Any MAGAt that follows the weather hears about the rain, wind and snow as well as the bone-chilling arctic blasts coming from Canada each year. donOLD will get Canada to stop this, or he will impose the tariffs. Canada has agreed to take appropriate actions to reduce the cold weather it sends the US by July. Expect donOLD to announce his successful negotiating skills very soon. MAGAts will bigly celebrate.

I mean, Trump does all kinds of crazy things, but I saw his list of countries whose citizens he wants to ban from the US, and the most baffling of all for me was Bhutan. While I do agree that Bhutan's massive visa costs for US citizens is rather extortionist, I can't imagine that any of their citizens presents a serious threat. I suspect he's pissed off at Dominica, St. Christopher/Nevis, and St. Lucia over their policy of selling their passports to any thug who'll pay them. But Bhutan? https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-travel-ban-countries-list-b2715762.html "...The draft list was separated into three sections — red, orange, …

From CNBC Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez raised $9.6 million during the first quarter of 2025, the strongest ever quarter for the New York Democrat, a campaign finance filing showed Tuesday. AOC’s huge money haul — more than five times her tally in the first quarter of 2024 — comes as she and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., draw big crowds at “Fighting Oligarchy” rallies around the U.S. The two progressives at those events criticize President Donald Trump’s policies and highlight the role that billionaires, including DOGE chief Elon Musk, have in the Trump administration. Turnout at the rallies has been strong even in red states. Ocasio-Cortez i…

NOTE — Trump voters with buyers’ regret grows by the minute. From CNBC Bridgewater founder Ray Dalio on Wednesday warned that a significant supply-demand problem regarding U.S. debt could have a profoundly disruptive impact on the global economy. It is the latest in a series of stark warnings about America’s mounting debt from the U.S. hedge fund billionaire, with the country’s national debt currently standing at more than $36.2 trillion. “The first thing is the debt issue, we have a very severe supply-demand problem,” Dalio told CNBC’s Sara Eisen at CONVERGE LIVE in Singapore. ”[The U.S. has] to sell a quantity of debt that the wor…

I've been bitching for months that nobody in the US media seems to have heard of a country called Mexico. At least when it comes to things other than deporting bad hombres. Mexico beat the incumbent curse in 2024 and elected a leftist Jewish woman to succeed AMLO in a whopping landslide. Why couldn't the US do that? And why isn't the media talking about it? It was funny that The Liberal Patriot, which is Ruy Teixeira's perma-scold on unpopular Democratic policies that turn off moderates, did very quickly come up with an article about what Democrats can learn from Carney's win in Canada. Mostly: be more moderate. But I would think they'd be a natural to sing th…
