I can’t find it offhand, but I recall an article in MAD — I think it was about the John Birch Society — which ended with a chorus of WASP men singing (the following is from memory):
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
And we’ll send 'em right back,
Send 'em right back,
Send 'em right back to yoooo-uuuuu!"
Seems about right.
MAD also ran a more recent article where an anti-immigration advocate suggesting replacing the whole poem with the words “Buzz Off!”
(I assume “Buzz” was an editorial decision…)
I remember that comic! The Bircher was being interviewed by “Bob Ross”, and was obsessed with figuring out what Ross’s “real name” was: Rossovich? Rossosovsky? Rossini?
It was the first thing I ever learned about the JBS. Some people are inculcated with their values; I ended up innoculated against them. Here’s to MAD, putting education amid the satire for decades!
I attribute my failure to follow my parents into Republican Party registration to my discovery of old copies of MAD at an impressionable age. (I can close my eyes and see the used-book store at which I bought them…)
I’m with you. That message was a thing of beauty. “Your brand of ‘freedom’ — the freedom to die of preventable 19th-century diseases — is an export we have no interest in buying”—epic!
This should appear in Noem’s articles of impeachment.
By the way, I heard something today that I should have guessed earlier: that Noem is basically a figurehead. Her reported romantic partner Corey Lewandowski is supposedly the actual decision maker at Homeland Security.
It wouldn’t be surprising. (But KN should be impeached anyway.)
Remember the “double-tap” boat murder in September that was unquestionably a war crime?
Turns out it just got even more unquestionable- the attack was committed under false flag using a plane disguised as a civilian airliner.

We’re gonna have to erect a gallows on the White House lawn at the rate this admin is piling up crimes against humanity.

I know a few Danes (not from Greenlamd) and they tend to be very pragmatic. Each would accept the cash and not change their minds at all.
It does if you say it the way the felon and his fellow fiends do.
Yes, I capitalized those nouns on purpose. That’s the way it’s done in the original German, after all.
Another prosecutor with ethics is fired.
The felon has started his attack on New York City.
And just an FYI:
Not that anyone here believes Rip van Simple’s promises.
Only the best legal minds, right?
And here’s van Simple’s erudition in response.
That’s not even English!
Hater of Humans Hegseth walks back his genius idea to improve basic military training.

Yeah, right. Here’s a United States Army Basic Combat Training expression for you, Tata: Your blather is a No Go.
Here’s the real reason Rip van Simple wants Greenland.

Notice he believes he owns the land, not the country. How soon before he starts selling it off to his cohorts?
This clown has zero concern for anyone other than himself. He has zero respect for the rule of law. None at all for the constitution. And he is rapidly sending the United States of America into a situation where it has less allies than North Korea does.
And be proud of it. “No country has to stand more on its own than ours does!”

Greg Bovino apparently needs a five-man security detail to protect him while he takes a piss in a Target bathroom, though the refreshing part of this video is the actual customers of said Target heckling the shit out of him.
This is how we defeat fascism - with massive public mockery. Show them that we’re not afraid of them and we know they’re scared of us.
Shortly before that Target incident, ICE kidnapped 2 people, at least 1 a US citizen, a 17-year-old U.S. citizen working at the Richfield, MN Target, then dumped him bleeding and crying miles away in a Walmart parking lot. The video is horrifying.
What’s the complaint? That’s a holding area, right? After all, it’s named Target. Yes, that’s sarcasm.
In A Piece of the Action, the Iotians based their government on the mobs of 1920s Chicago, but the key thing about that was they operated competently and mostly ethically. We do not see that with this criminal conspiracy destroying the United States and everything else it decides to touch.
That’s actually a pretty well supported claim. Trump is a long-term teetotaler.
Is it ever!
“We are the nation of Koch and Virchow and have spent 140 years using state power to defeat disease through science AND solidarity. You, meanwhile, preside over a system where insulin is rationed like gold dust and medical bankruptcy is a national pastime. The fact that you think you have the moral standing to lecture the country that invented modern medicine on ‘medical decisions’ is not just arrogant; it is grotesque! Keep your chaos on your side of the Atlantic. Mind your own business.”
Well worth repeating!
I don’t have a Bluesky account, but this article wasn’t paywalled for me and contains what I assume is the same video:
Any link to this video (or news about it) that isn’t Bluesky? Thanks.
Now apply that concept of ownership to the young women trafficked by Epstein, and consider Trump’s actions with something he owns rather than rents.
