Cats are weird

Trump and Speaker Johnson actually took an oath to protect and preserve the US Constitution!
These morons made more sense than Trump did!
This part is a relief. I really hope it stays that way. Nothing would be worse than one faction hurting the other and letting Republicans take advantage, which Trump is trying hard to do with his "communist" smear.
Blanche is really done! He's cooked. Put a fork in him.
Oh, I get it ... This must be like that 2% of GDP NATO members were supposed to spend on defense and which he thought was payable to the US like a protection racket. If you start to think like him, painful as it may be, everything makes sense.
Read what he said during the 2016 debate with Hillary.
Rutte is probably not even aware that Trump thought NATO was a protection racket whose members paid the US for protection. He said so himself as far back as the 2016 presidential debate and he still like he still believes it to be true. He twisted the 2% of GDP to fit his convoluted reality.
He pushed NATO allies to spend more on defense?!? In 2016 presidential debate, he was talking about NATO as if it was a protection racket whose members paid the US for protection. NPR is rewriting history in real time.
"GOP bullish on political impact for Republicans of Trump MOU with Iran" How the hell do Republicans get their propaganda printed in bold headlines like this?
"Yeah, he's gonna win the Nobel Prize."
I asked Gemini the same question and I think I broke it!!
Trump and Netanyahu have repeatedly clashed over Israel’s military operations in Lebanon, which continued as part of a separate and frequently ignored ceasefire deal. Two weeks ago, Trump reportedly called him “fucking crazy” after a launching a strike on Beirut, adding: “You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me.” After the latest strike the weekend, he said Netanyahu had “no fucking judgment”.

John Cornyn, placing a "for sale" sign on his forehead: “I’ve always said that former senators look happier, healthier, and they’re certainly more prosperous. So, I’m kind of, like, looking forward to what comes next.”
Headline says, "Steven Spielberg’s ‘Disclosure Day’ First Day Global Cume Around $12M – Box Office" later updated.
Trump says he never promised no new wars. This is the closest he has come to saying, "I was lying."

The legendary quote, "Act like you've been there before" (often applied to scoring a touchdown), is widely attributed to Pro Football Hall of Fame coach Paul Brown. He used this philosophy to teach his players—most notably the Cleveland Browns in the 1940s and 1950s—to remain professional, humble, and focused after making a big play rather than celebrating excessively. (Note: The phrase has since become a broader cultural and sports idiom, famously adapted by Vince Lombardi into "Act like a champion.
I always thought the judicial branch was champing at the bit to get a piece of him. He has been at war with the other branch from day one. And I don't think he gets it. He thinks he's in charge of the whole shebang.
Yes. Around 2000, while briefly considering a run for the presidency on the Reform Party ticket, Donald Trump remarked to Fortune magazine, "It’s very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on

The agreement to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan was actually signed in February 2020 by the Trump administration and the Taliban in Doha, Qatar. This U.S.-Taliban Peace Deal outlined the phased withdrawal of all foreign troops. The final withdrawal was executed by the Biden administration in August 2021.
I've always said all Trump wanted to be was a "kingmaker" with no responsibilities. He probably never imagined Republicans would make it this easy.
As the fallout continues, negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz have stalled. Mr. Trump has rejected multiple proposals from Iran, demanding more concessions on their nuclear program. On Monday, Mr. Trump said the leaders of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates asked him to postpone military strikes because they believed they could strike a deal with Iran that would satisfy the United States.
Yes, it is largely true. Throughout his 36 years in the U.S. Senate and his time as Vice President, Joe Biden was widely noted for not trading individual stocks. During this long span, his personal finances mostly consisted of his government salary and pensions, while his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, held some mutual funds that were invested in the broader market.
The New York Times is still trying to sane-wash Trump's tariff extortion attempts that he has been issuing with direct and explicit quid-pro-quo demands that have nothing to do with the US economy.
Can you believe POLITICO?!?

Trump seems to know a lot about the mob. Does he also know he holds the record over any mob boss in the number of "I refuse to answer on the grounds that it may tend to incriminate me" pleas (aka, Plead the Fifth?) Look it up in your favorite search engine AI assistant.
I'm glad there are still some serious polling firms around.
And Trump seems to want to encourage more violence as opposed to Obama, Biden, Hillary and Kamala Harris.
Trump was the one who said it would be over in a "two weeks" repeatedly. He probably doesn't even realize he's calling himself a liar.
Reagan re Gorbachev: "Trust but verify." Iran re Trump: "Don't trust. Verify."
Incredible how much voters believed all his lies!
They hold a "symposium against Anti-Zionism" instead of "symposium for Zionism" because their follows have been trained to expect to be enraged. Simple but very effective psychological propaganda.
I tried to imagine Obama saying something like this and I woke up on the other side of a black hole in another galaxy.

JD Vance to Pope Leo: "Shut up and dribble!"
When asked about Trump’s Truth Social website itself, the pope offered his own wry remark. “It’s ironic—the name of the site itself. Say no more,” he added.
A sociopath is an informal term for someone with Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), characterized by a consistent disregard for right and wrong, lack of empathy, and manipulative behavior. They often disregard others' rights, feel no remorse, and may be charming yet exploitative to serve their own needs.
U.S. Vice President JD Vance unexpectedly departed Budapest on Wednesday evening, April 8, 2026. He cut his planned trip short to return to Washington, D.C. after being tapped for high-level negotiations regarding Iran, later traveling to Islamabad by April 12.
This is Trump on NATO in 2016 debate with Hillary. He had no frigging clue the meaning of mutual defense treaty. He actually thought NATO was a protection racket whose members *paid* the US for protection.
Read what he said about it in 2016 during a debate with Hillary. He thought it was a protection racket whose members paid the US for protection.
Trump has never owned anything he couldn't bankrupt.
Please do yourself a favor. Read what he said about NATO in 2016 when he was debating Hillary. He actually thought it was a Mafia-style protection racket for a price!
An earlier version of the bill, which died under opposition, would have given the governor the power to appoint all board members, ending democratic elections for the board. https://www.alternet.org/republicans-midterms-popularity/
Ukraine is a better NATO member than even the US itself.
