How MAGA hate hearing that MAGA dies with Donald, and that We The People greatly outnumber them.

Nancy's avatar

Probably; there's no way Vance would have the same kind of charisma that keeps the stooge base following like li'l (rabid) lambs. X-P

Those fuckers aimed at an Australian reporter while she was describing the situation on camera and shot her in the leg with a rubber bullet. I'm disgusted.

Teddy Gingerich's avatar

The video is chilling. Her cameraperson focuses on the "cops" behind her, and you can clearly see the one who turned toward her (away from the protesters), aimed and shot. Not. An. Accident.

They elected a lawless, incompetent, felon. What could possibly go right?

So what’s wrong with the gop majority Congress? Spineless, greedy and power hungry.

Thank you, God. California girl here. 🏄🏽‍♀️ I don’t always see eye to eye with Gov. Newsom, but right now he and Attorney General Bonta are standing tall and doing a good job. Same with Mayor Bass. Three badasses who won’t bow down to Twitler and his goons. Our leaders have my admiration and support. I feel safer with them in charge. Sending love and strength to the City of Angels. Stay fierce and be safe, my sweet Angelenos!

Nancy's avatar

Yeah, I was worried about Gavin there for a bit, when he was schmoozing with Charlie Kirk and others of that ilk; I doubt he'll be doing that now, regardless of where that puts him in the 2028 polls (should we get that far). I think they've personally pissed him off so Him-damned much, he won't have anything more to do with them. ;)

And good for Bonta and Bass! :D

Punkette's avatar

Same here, Nancy. I have been on the fence about Gavin these past months, esp. when he broke with his party on trans athletes in sports (really pissed me off), but in this crucial moment, I am proud of him. Keep going, Gov!

I am attending a No Kings march on Saturday. Not gonna lie, I am a little nervous. But it's too important to stand up and speak up!

Teddy Gingerich's avatar

I am too. I'm not nervous at all. What are his goons going to do with a 67 year old on a mobility scooter?

CalypsoRising's avatar

0r a 77-year old with her walker…..and if they do, it will make great video

Anne's avatar

Calypso honey, I’ll be there with my cane and I will use it as defense if I need to. Those walkers could probably take out a couple of goons in one stroke!

Loved that you posted the thing from Rick Wilson, this dude is spot on and funny to boot thank you. And I too believe there are waymo of us than there are of "HIM." I've read that this act was just a test to see if it would work (I think kind of like the parade) everything is distraction or Smoke and Mirrors so we all need to be vitally aware of what "HE'S" doing while all the chaos is erupting. I also heard that, although, Orange Crush said LA was burning up the "riots" happened in a small section of LA. It's a big place and I guess he hasn't been there very often but exaggeration will get you everywhere I guess! Amen, Awomen, A-lgbtq+ and A-all the waymo others I've missed!

Teddy Gingerich's avatar

Some have been reporting (with photos for proof) that LAPD was so not-needed-for-total-control that may were able to participate in the Pride parade.

P J Johnston's avatar

In any event they didn't need National Guard or Marines at all!

Nancy's avatar

Amen, etc.! If they'd felt the need, they would've asked. X-P

You don't have to call him an "accused" pedophile. He admitted it years ago when he talked about going in the dressing rooms at the Miss Teen USA pageant and watching the girls get undressed.

Nancy's avatar

Eww, yeah... X-P

"When you're a celebrity, when you're famous, they let you do it."

Probably what happened was either a) they were startled, and/or b) they were told to let him do it if they wanted to still be in the contest. X-P

TACO couldn't scare China with tariffs. He couldn't scare Canada, either. The world knows him for what he is: A weak, spineless, hide-behind-the office (at any expense) dumbshit. He is desperate and he's scared. The economy is tanking because of his stupidity, not to mention the countless lawsuits against him. Groceries have never been higher. 401Ks have either flatlined or tanked. People are being forced into bankruptcy. Muskrat accused him of being pedophile with a teaser that "the truth will out." So TACO claimed that L.A. was rioting therefore, he saved us by sending in armed forces. He is arresting children at their schools! If you had a child with an umber tint to his or her skin, would YOU send your kid to school? Are the farm workers who provide us with our produce at work? How's the daycare business faring these days? What about our hospitality industry? Have the maids and janitors stayed home? He wants to tank our economy. That is his goal.

And has anyone seen proof that Mistress Dark-of-Eye Strong-of-Beak is here legally? Melanoma Tump is costing the American people a fortune and for what?! So she can go whip and chain shopping with an armed escort?

If you hate TACO, SUBSCRIBE and fight back! Thank you.

Thanks for the reminder, God! We can beat this fool back with our collective peaceful protests. He looks more and more like the Wizard of Oz every day.. or the naked Emperor, if you will. Your choice. Keep up the heat!🔥

Teddy Gingerich's avatar

The wizard turned out to be a nice guy after all. The naked Emperor is the one.

Teri Gelini's avatar

There are definitely more of them than us. We need to be sure to stay away from dc and the capitol on Saturday and be in other areas. Hopefully his great birthday party will be a flop as was his inauguration. He will claim the bigly, the greatest, the best ever but it will all be lies as that is his only vocabulary. If he ever told the truth the world would stop spinning.

Nancy's avatar

What, all that hot air from him keeps it going? X-D

Yeah, I still like that one meme that featured Springsteen and Swift: "FREE CONCERT IN D.C. ON THE 14th" in probably a location at the opposite end of town. ;)

In Real Life news, I hear God's Steward on Earth (or some such), Pope Leo, is gonna have a big official Mass, the first one since taking office, not on a Sunday, but on a Saturday...

June 14th. X-D

And it'll be shown live in Rate Field, where the White Sox play at, on their big-screen T.V. there... X-D

Talk about distractions! :D

Teri Gelini's avatar

Gotta love the new Pope Leo. He definitely is making a statement!

Nancy's avatar

He's quite proud of being "woke." :D

Many thanks to the god of media, who’s put all his efforts into making truth KNOWN!! A little respect is in order.

Thanks to you who also care enough to FIGHT FOR TRUTH!!

Does Trump remind anyone else of Nero? Let's raid the costume and pawn shops and send him violins and togas!

Shirley Peck's avatar

Yes, Niquie! Nero fiddled while Rome burned.

Nancy's avatar

Nope; they didn't have fiddles back then, only.....LYRES (pronounced exactly how you think it is). X-D

But apparently, according to historians nowadays, one reason why everyone was so bent out of shape at Nero was that he wasn't even in the City at the time; he out was touring the provinces (and probably "winning" all the local music and drama competitions: "Ooh, yes, sir, your performance was...one for the record scrolls, absolutely.").

And once he got back, give him credit, he did try to help out (just his rich oligarch buddies, of course, but hey...), and his informants told him that of all the people's reactions to the fire (including those of the PRIVATE FIRE COMPANIES, which is why it blew up so badly, probably), that nutty off-shoot Jewish sect folks, the "Christ-ians," were really overjoyed about it and were dancing in the streets, yelling things like, "Yay! It's the End Times! Take us now, Lord! :D"

"They probably SET it, sir! =8-0"

"Ooh, that is naughty. Round up the happiest ones and 'put them to the question'." (= torture. It's one of the reasons for things like due process, the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments, etc.)

Needless to say, they confessed to being arsonists (finally) and were publicly executed, but not for being Christians, so they weren't martyrs, but for being arsonists, in a fire-trap of a congested city... X-P

There are thoughts by historians nowadays that the Book of Revelation wasn't so much an apocalyptic vision as a pissed-off people's political rant back when they didn't have freedom of speech (with Nero being the [disguised] ultimate "anti-Christ" [a fairly common term for folks who didn't like Christ or Christians] and enemy of the religion).

Shirley Peck's avatar

Wow Nancy, you have given me an eye-opener this morning as I scroll through and catch up on what happened overnight. Thanks for your comments. I’m going to check out that saying about Nero. I can see that something probably got lost in the translation.

Nancy's avatar

Mind, this is from what I've gleaned, largely off the Internet, though I trusted the sources; I'm not an expert by any means (though I probably would've double-minored in History and Journalism if I'd had the chance in my college days). :)

But, knowing human behavior, I wouldn't be a bit surprised. The early Christians were pretty steamed at Nero, and that could be why.

I wonder what it will take until the rethuglican congress attempts to rein in this madman. I’m reminded of the song “Blowin’ in the Wind” by Bob Dylan sung by Peter, Paul & Mary.

Cindi Lynch's avatar

That’s hysterical, thinking that the Republican “party” would ever rein him in. They’re making money hand over fist and they won’t speak up unless the madness affects them personally. Look at Josh Hawley begging for a FEMA response that isn’t coming. The Republicans are counting on the Dems to once again save them and their voters from their own poor representation. The GOP has no leaders, only a group of followers and deep down, all they give a shit about is the bottom line on their own statements, not their states, and certainly not their constituents.
