Will Their Leader Walk The Plank Or Will They Abandon Ship?

There’s something in the distance, and it’s getting closer. What could it be? Who could be coming back to themselves? Anyone? Well, it seems we won’t know until it gets closer, if it ever does. It could be good. It could be bad. Or is it something we don’t know? We know a lot of […]

Voters Are Angry With Trump

Survey Says!? Hoo boy, folks, this is something we guessed, but now we have some proof. This is regarding a reputable survey that shows Trump’s non-MAGA voters are slipping away. He thought he could hold onto them without trying, and he was and is so wrong. He doesn’t notice, secure in his own ego that […]

‘Bad’ Republicans Tell Trump No More War

And Donnie is very crabby about the Republicans who dared tell him this. If only we could have more of them act like this. Is that too much to hope for? Probably. We can still hope. Trump needed an excuse to get out of this war. They (and Democrats, of course) just gave him one. […]

Could Oregon Get Swept Up In Redistricting Wars?

As an all-out war over redistricting upends voting rights law and a battle over congressional maps plays out across the country, Democrats are looking for opportunities to cancel out Republican gains—and they have their sights set on Oregon. Oregon, like all states, redraws its state legislative and congressional maps regularly following the release of each […]

At least 5 GOP-led states have a new Pride Month tradition — renaming June

"If you can't lick 'em, join 'em," a conservative Indiana senator famously advised nearly a century ago. Today’s Republicans appear to have taken that lesson to heart, working overtime to create GOP-branded alternatives to Pride Month that celebrate traditional marriage, "nuclear families,” and what some governors are calling "fidelity."

Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders became the latest…

The Minnesota GOP Just Hit a New Low

During the second day of the Minnesota GOP’s annual conference in Duluth on Saturday, the state’s Republicans conducted a moment of silence for Derek Chauvin, who is currently serving a prison term of 22 and a half years for the second-degree murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

When asked about the moment of silence on Monday, Minnesota GOP Chair Alex Plechash said the request came from the…

MS NOW Panel Is Loving It

Oh, my goodness gracious, they were quite happy with this. They had a great time discussing it. and brought up a good point. What was a disgraceful thing can be turned around to our advantage. But it didn’t need to happen to the person it did happen to. Well, he can kick back and relax […]

Trump Is Being Burned By The GOP

The rebellion has erupted. They are sick of his shenanigans, they are sick of his grifting, they are sick of his nonsense. This is unexpected. They’ve been toeing the Trump line for the past year and 4 months. They’ve been doing what he wants. For now, that has ended. The GOP has been pushed too […]

It’s All Thumbs All Night All Posting

My goodness, how the man can rant! Considering the source, it’s not surprising the naps are needed. Stay up all night, sleep all day. The more it happens, the crazier they get. Amazing. Why can’t this guy have something resembling life where he actually sleeps? Up all night posting these nasty screeds about this or […]

Senate Republicans Took A Flamethrower To Acting AG Todd Blanche

A measure of how stupid Trump’s just created $1.8 BILLION dollar (you know that number will go up if Trump gets his way) was that right off the bat some Republicans on Capitol Hill expressed “concerns.” Most just whenever possible made like Josh Hawley on Jan. 6 and ran for their lives if they spotted […]

Moses MAGA Mike Johnson Says Nope

Yes, seriously. He did something completely out of character for the Speaker Johnson we know. It’s surprising. Still serious. It’s almost unbelievable. But in a way, it’s about damn time. Johnson just must have gotten tired of Trump. Yes, Mike Johnson. With gratitude to Raw Story: House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) skipped a White House meeting Thursday — and […]

The Red Alert in the Latest Obamacare Enrollment Numbers

When Republicans allowed the enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies from the Inflation Reduction Act to expire last year, most people predicted that many Americans would drop their insurance coverage because they couldn’t afford premiums without those subsidies, and that the cost of coverage would go up for everyone. A new report from KFF, the nonprofit health care news and research organization,…

GOP Says Oh Hail No (Two Of Two)

The saga continues. Republicans are not happy with Trump and his choice in something. They are letting him know just how angry they are. Republicans standing up to Trump? Who gave them back their spines? There seems to be a trend for that. Perhaps they have figured out that being attached to him is an […]

Just Say No (To The Billion Dollar Ballroom)

Well, this is a pretty kettle of fish. It seems that his project is not loved by everyone. And the cost is prohibitive. They’re not going to be able to push something through due to unified opposition. The opposition has some surprises in it. Well, surprises to us. But that one billion is circling the […]

GOP Vs. GOP: Massie’s Loss In Kentucky Reveals Republican Split

Kentucky’s 4th District did not need $32 million to decide whether it would stay Republican, but it did need that much to decide what kind of Republican could survive there. Incumbent Rep. Thomas Massie’s defeat by Ed Gallrein turned a safe red-seat primary into a party-on-party enforcement fight, with one Republican coalition arguing for obedience […]

“Another Scalp For Trump” Massie Goes Down In Flames

What was it that Lindsey Graham said in 2015? Oh yeah, “If we nominate Trump we will be destroyed and we will deserve it.” If you’re noticing a pattern here with John Cornyn, Bill Cassidy, the Indiana State Senators and now Thomas Massie, you’re not alone. “Weak-minded Lauren Boebert,” as Trump called her the other […]

Throwing Who To The Sharks?

Just when you think you’ve heard it all, something pops up that shows you there is something that was going on in the back room that is just coming to light. Then that light is astounding, even more so because of the possible action that could or could not be taken. What is this and […]

Gym Jordan Fidgets As CNN Reporter Pushes Back

And it’s about time. Holy cow, this guy is detestable. The far-right Freedom Caucus is a pain in the you-know-what. He’s another one who pontificates about what the country needs and refuses to listen to other views. Well, he got his, and it was done with style and panache. My regards to Raw Story: CNN’s Kaitlan […]

GOP House Member Gone AWOL

This actually is new and different. A member of Congress has disappeared, or so it seems right now. There’s been no sign of a ransom note or any of the things you automatically think of when someone disappears. There’s just been … silence. And that seems to be the strangest thing of all. With appreciation […]

Republicans Are Knee Deep In It

It stinks. It’s stuck on them. Everyone is seeing it now. Trump has sullied the Republican Party. And they can’t seem to break loose. But they need to, before there’s nothing left. They are missing the obvious. And the longer they wait, the longer they dawdle; every tick of the clock is moving against them. […]

Virginia researchers debunk the claim that most trans kids ‘grow out of it’

For years, anti-transgender activists have claimed that the vast majority of children and young adults who come out as trans, nonbinary, or otherwise gender-nonconforming are simply going through a phase. That argument holds that many will eventually reject their gender identity and return to living as the sex they were assigned at birth. Scientists at Virginia Commonwealth University now say…

The GOP Is Taking A Hard Look At Hegseth

[Edit: This is going to be long because I’m adding some information from The Hill’s full article.] This is something else that’s new and different. It seems that Republicans just might be looking closer at Petey Boy. They’re looking at all the things he’s done thus far, and they’re not happy. We could have told […]
