The current second Trump administration: a compendium of horrors

He’s Putin’s stooge. He knows the attacks will continue but figures no one will take much notice.

What happened to “if he’s elected, he can end the war in one day”? Apparently the cultists have feeble memories.

Exactly.

It’s tough to remember claims that you literally gave no shits about.

More likely it’s that Trump has zero concern for truth or facts, and simply doesn’t care if he says one thing is happening there while Putin does the opposite.

As far as he’s concerned, you and I should only care about feeling good that the last thing HE said makes him look good, why the hell are we paying attention to what actually happens?

And yet he’s constantly thanking people for their “attention to this matter”.

Our Secretary of Health & Human Services brags about his immune system:

“I said, ‘I’m not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.’”

Believe me, Sir: it shows.

OH yeah.

The Trump regime certainly shines at providing role models for our nation’s children!!! :nauseated_face:

“used to” is playing a decent game of weight lifting there.

I imagine he now uses mirrors or CDs like any moderately rich asshole does.

Or hooker’s bum cheeks, though they tend to get sticky.

CDs!? Where would they find CDs?

I suppose they could be snorting blow off their iPhones.

I suppose I am showing my age…

In RFK Jr’s case, see deez nuts.

The horrors keep coming:

This Is What Destroying the Vaccine Market Looks Like

The anti-vaxxers are likely punishing Moderna for the COVID vaccine.

I saw this meme today:

Cassidy- “Do you agree with me that President Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for Operation Warp Speed?”

RFKjr “Absolutely yes”

Cassidy- “But you just told Sen. Bennett that the vaccines killed more people than Covid.”

It appears to be from a hearing from last September. The article says that RFK, Jr. said, ‘I did not say that.’

DHS spokesperson Tricia MacLaughlin is leaving the agency.

I’d say that’s good news—except that I suspect they have someone even more vicious and nasty ready to take her place.

This is one of those things that really is a horror, but would be pretty hard to explain to a Trumper. Unless they were a physician, it might even sound good to them. Here it is:

FDA’s reversal on Moderna flu shot bid followed White House pressure

Type A meeting? New one to me.

The way I understand this: Kennedy and Company had his agency hire Vinay Prasad, a gadfly professor of hematology-oncology at best-of-the-best San Francisco General Hospital. Prasad is the kind of guy who is outstanding when it comes to finding potential and actual flaws in almost any medical study. Maybe I will read this book of his. Most medical schools might benefit from having one or two (but probably one) Vinay Prasad type. But a clever gadfly whose ideas should be considered is not the person to run a government drug approval agency. And having Donald Trump overrule Professor Prasad, even if it leads to one good decision, is going to average out to a health care disaster.
