The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues

Maybe even get a headache from furrowing her brow so hard.

I’m extremely relieved that it was a 9-0 decision.

I shouldn’t be in the position to have to feel relieved about that, but here we are.

ETA- I suspect Clarence will be sleeping on the couch tonight - I’m picturing him pulling out a sofa bed, but I guess there are issues so clearly unconstitutional even he can’t contrive a way around them.

Thomas’ patron has joined the resistance.

They’re getting hit in the pocketbook. No surprise here.

Never in the field of market economics was so much lost by so many due to so few.

A man, a tan, a concept of a plan…

Pemmican!
(Dusty, dry meat held together with copious amounts of fat stuffed into a poly-cotton blend sack.)

Don’t forget all the makeup and whatever the fuck that is on the top of his head.

The best way to start your day/Is with orange ass-kissing! You need that vitamin T!

So apparently the SSA is going to exclusively use Twitter (I am not calling it X) for its official announcements.

But how can this be legal? Beyond the obvious graft, it’s forcing people to have access to a service not all will have. Never mind that I don’t use Twitter because I think social media is dumb, but I don’t want to even think about trying to get my 82 year old father (who is on SS) to use it.

It seems to me that requiring one particular form of communication, that has costs and equipment requirements associated with it can’t be allowed, can it?

(And yeah, obviously an effort to prop up Twitter)

Baghdad Bob levels of reality denial at work here.

He looks like he’s standing in confusion about which end of the Sizzler salad bar to start at.

Same.
I’ve been appalled (but not surprised) by the short-sighted wishful thinking of some politicians and media basically saying “If we suck up to Trump, maybe we’ll get lower tariffs than other places, and then everyone will build factories here, and there’ll be flowers and lollipops and…”

Yeah that all makes sense.
…were it not for:

  1. The tariff situation is changing on a daily basis
  2. MAGA has held the UK, along with the rest of europe, in utter contempt, privately and publicly
  3. Even American leaders with a brain, led the UK on, with promises of a trade deal…the “special relationship” is bullshit
  4. Trump has shown repeatedly, that his word is his ass, and his contracts may as well be signed with disappearing ink on used toilet paper.

Is that a recent picture. I try not to ever look at him, whether he is stationary or in motion, but I understood that he was actually losing weight. Some were noting that sudden weight loss can be a harbinger of dire health problems. (I know, don’t tease, amirite?).

I feel like I’ve seen that picture before, too.

Yeah, that pic’s been memed quite a bit. It isn’t new.

Every time that pic gets memed Trumps pants get a little closer to his armpits.

I was going to say that that picture looks like it has been altered to raise his slacks up high.

Hey, so … that Trump extortion thing is coming along nicely:

Jesus fucking Christ. I’ve used a law firm to make sure my will was correct. That’s it. Anyone that needs 600 mil covered in legal fees may have a skeleton or 400 in the closet.

I hope they charge him 100 million and hour and show him the door.

Vance, Space Force commander, and Hegseth continue goose-stepping into the past.
Was the commander a woman??? Of course!!! DEI DEI DEI
