Jennifer Rubin , along with George Conway, Joyce Vance, and others, have launched a media outlet called The Contrarian, with the tagline "Not Owned by Anybody."

Here's a plan for fighting back. He even mentions bending the knee.

I don't doubt the sincerity of the article, a democratic truth squad? For who ? There is no truth telling to many MAGA people, they simply do not care about that

Bigger question is really _where_. You can already listen to AOC for example, but the media and Democrats generally aren't.
This article was written by a Democratic strategist. Is there anyone confident in that group?
gee whiz!

Twenty-nine percent of non-voters who supported Biden in 2020 said U.S. support for the genocide was the top reason they sat the 2024 election, according to a survey by YouGov.

Re: Bending the Knee and Politics in 2025
And pretty soon, we're gonna have an Attorney General that is an election denier herself and a participant in the vile scheme. The scumbag-elect has a Mafia-don like grip over the GOP and has the Senate absolutely terrified of him and shitting in their pants. Because he can now literally get away with murder.batmagadanleadoff wrote: ↑Tue Jan 14, 2025 12:49 pm What a country. He tried to steal an election by any means possible, including the use of deadly force and has half the country believing that it was Biden that stole the election.

Of course. He can shoot someone mowing the lawn of the White House, and the Supreme Court will say it was part of his duties as president.batmagadanleadoff wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2025 5:07 pm Because he can now literally get away with murder.

Seems funny that the people who want to invade Greenland think it will be too cold to hold the inauguration outdoors.

Fuck him with the cold excuse. He's worried that the expected powerful winds will mess up his lunatic combover and reveal to everyone, his pink bald head. It's the same reason why he didn't attend the 75th anniversary D-Day ceremonies in 2019.

This guy nails the confirmation hearings.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/ ... 748875007/I've distilled the hearings down to a generic transcript that tells you all you need to know about the 'advice and consent' Republicans are providing, which amounts to: 'Yeah, sure, whatever.'

I read they avoid the frigid temps because Don and Mel's synthetic

Yes, he's vain. But I think his biggest fear is a small crowd. That sparse crowd he would have drawn will look larger when moved into an indoor arena.

One of the reasons given for Trump resisting mask wearing back in '20-'21 was that he was afraid it would smudge the bronzer smeared on his face.
I don't remember the source of that one (it of course wasn't DJT himself) but it certainly sounds plausible.

The better solution would be to refrain from wearing clown makeup, but of course he won't do that.

Maybe he can't find gloves small enough for his hands.

He just tied in the freeing of the Israeli hostages with the freeing of the Criminals from January 6th (who he has referred to as political hostages since that day).
What a crud.

Charles Pierce put out another great one today, calling this next administration Hell's Encore. There's a great quote from Hunter Thompson on the difference between George McGovern and Richard Nixon that's still very relevant today. Here's one particular excerpt that I love, mainly because I agree with it. Me and Charley were definitely on the same wavelength there:batmagadanleadoff wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2025 11:08 amFuck him with the cold excuse.

https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/p ... president/I have a number of theories as to why he moved his inauguration into the Capitol and the parades into the Capitol One Center. To attribute it all to his concern for the spectators out in the cold is to give him credit for empathy that is almost hilarious given his track record. I think he didn’t want to stand in the cold, and that he was afraid what the wind might do to the forest creature he wears on his head, and that he wanted to minimize pictures with the Capitol lest everyone be reminded of how his bear-spray militia trashed the place. I think all of that because history has not given me any reason why I shouldn’t.

Re: Bending the Knee and Politics in 2025
And as expected, the J6 criminals get pardons and commutations. I guess they're now free to go out and rape and pillage and murder anyone that doesn't support the madman in the White House. Maybe even at the madman's urging. Why not? They'll get pardoned again if they're tried for their crimes and the madman already has immunity from commiting crimes.
