Political cartoon of mitch McConnell in the hospital with a GOP elephant next to him with a friendly arm round Mitch’s shoulder. The elephants’ bubble says, “Hi Folks! Mitch just want to post an update and pressure everyone he’s alive and well.” Mitch is holding a news paper with the headline, “Man Walks On Moon” dated July 21 1969
An exchange on Threads: Doctor here: Giving an hour-long speech in 107° heat is not recommended thisoneOverhere: Shush smarken1: I heard Obama did two hours
Creature from the Black Lagoon emerging from the algae-laden reflecting pool.
A very contented Teddy Bear wearing headphones, sitting on a leather couch. Undoubtedly his alert expression is because he learned something new and fun from The ProLeftPod.
Sen. John Cornyn of Texas sucked up and read The Art of the Squeal for a photo-op to try to win over Fat Nixon for an endorsement. It didn’t work.
86 and 47 —spelled out in in sea shells on a beach— are apparently a death threat now.
A post from THAT MAN on his flailing platform that reads, "Robert Mueller just died. Good, I'm glad he's dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!” It’s also signed by him, but I am under moral obligation to never say his name in public.
A Patagonia tag, and on the flip side of the care instructions it reads, “Vote The Assholes Out” in all caps.
A shaggy white dog resting its head on an elaborately hassled dog bed. It’s wearing headphones and has in intense look in its eyes, clearly listening to the #ProLeftPod and considers what it is learning from Driftglass and Bluegal.
A cat listening to The Professional Left podcast (probably) on a phone, earbuds in place, grinning.
When life gives you lemons... a poor schmuck with his head on a table. On his right, he’s getting a cannon blast of lemons. In front of him is a fruit juice press and to his left is what looks like an endless amount of lemonade in various containers.
A host of the #Momocrats podcast holding up a matte-finish black mug full of pens ad sharpies with the words, “fuck trump” (lower case) on the side.
An old timey picture of a cat listening to the ProLeft Podcast on a wireless with a headset.
a post from The Orange 🤡 : "The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they'll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they've done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap. The Democrats cost our Country $1.5 Trillion Dollars with their recent antics of viciously closing our Country, while at the same time putting many at risk - and they should pay a fair price. There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else, and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our Country, and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats."
Michael Adams, @KYSecState: "We're getting calls about polls being closed. They are closed because we do not have elections today. Kentucky votes next year. You cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry."
A dog with a very concerned expression listening to the ProLeft Podcast on headphones connected to a phone.
George Santos in profile, looking up. The headline reads, “Are you there God? It’s me—Cher."
A teddy bear wearing headphones sitting on a black leather sofa.
A brown and white doggie with very pointy ears wearing a pair of large headphones is grinning no doubt because it likes listening to The Professional Left Podcast!
A cat, mysteriously in mid air as if being lifted by a mystical force, looks on, non-plussed about going to heaven.
An indoors picture of The Orange 🤡, King Charles, Camilla, and Mel who is wearing her dark purple hat such that it looks like a lampshade.
Comic photoshop of RFK Jr saying, “Shit.” Above his head is the word “Oath”. The caption reads, “Roadkill Gourmet, Secretary Brainworm swears under oath” Signed by Tengrain
@realDonaldTrump ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT! Today a Highly Partisan Appeals Court incorrectly said that our Tariffs should be removed, but they know the United States of America will win in the end. If these Tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the Country. It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong. The U.S.A. will no longer tolerate enormous Trade Deficits and unfair Tariffs and Non Tariff Trade Barriers imposed by other Countries, friend or foe, that undermine our Manufacturers, Farmers, and everyone else. If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America. At the start of this Labor Day weekend, we should all remember that TARIFFS are the best tool to help our Workers, and support Companies that produce great MADE IN AMERICA products. For many years, Tariffs were allowed to be used against us by our uncaring and unwise Politicians. Now, with the help of the United States Supreme Court, we will use them to the benefit of our Nation, and Make America Rich, Strong, and Powerful Again! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
