Remain Calm. All is Well.

The doom loop has officially begun.

Immigration

We've Come Undone

How expensive is our xenophobia? The annual cost of detaining a single immigrant is $58,000, which could provide a year of Medicaid for three adults, a year of SNAP food benefits for 12 individuals, or fund multiple visits to emergency rooms at public hospitals.

Bipartisan Style Tips. Free of Charge.

Maybe they should all try decaf.

Thank you For Your Attention To This Matter

No more endless wars...OK, except this one.

"We Love You God"

Nobody changes leaders in the middle of war. Trump, hammered in the polls for tariffs and DOGE cuts, is posturing as a war president and using phrases like this attack “was the likes of what the world has never seen,” and “We love you God,” even as he is launching an unprovoked attack on Iran.

I, Love a Parade

By all accounts, the whole Trump parade thing seemed pretty dull. It was less Leni Riefenstahl's "Triumph of the Will" and more Bill Murray's "Stripes."

Apocalypse...Uh...Not Now. Somewhere Down the Road

It's been a heck of a week, Brownie.

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do - Pride Edition

Musk wanted to stay in his role beyond the 130-day time limit set by statute. But, love grows stale, it seems, and a 4-month relationship is more than Trump could bear. The Oval Office simply couldn't continue to hold two egos of this size. Our daddies are breaking up.

Trump

The Book of War

"Americans don’t have the only culture on the planet struggling with values, but we seem unable to stop funding weapons and wars while we take food and hope and health from children."

Trump

A Deaf Ear to Heaven

I want you mad enough to give me money.

Trump

Open the Pod Bay Doors, HAL...

That was the week that was.

The Thrill is Gone

Your nighttime dreams are forgotten as you doomscroll yourself awake. There's no time for daydreams as your phone pings with every Trump alert. Our mental health is in decline as the country falls off the World Happiness Chart.

Border

Gulag America

The process, as everyone knows, is called “profiling.” If you approach the checkpoint as a white person, the odds of you being detained are minimal. Traveling north while brown is more problematic.

Trump

The Art of the Deal, OK, Sort of...

Yes, it's TDS. Trump Distraction Syndrome.

Trump

"You Effed Up. You Trusted Us."

Can we get a mulligan on the last election?

Trump

Remember When We Listened to the Radio

"His pointing turned into jumping up and down, serious histrionics. I turned around and discovered that the red microphone light was still on and the morning audience had heard our entire conversation. The “Great Voice of the Great Plains” was swearing at people as they rolled out of bed."

Trump

The Nazification Escalation

Ridiculing the Trump deep state as Naziesque, joking around about his Nazi enablers seemed at times to be tiresome and so much amplified hysteria. Not anymore.

Trump

Dumb Corleone

He'll make you an offer you can't understand.

Trump

Render Unto Me That Which I Want

Holy Week in the holiest place in the nation, Washington. Well, actually...

Trump

The Fourth Reich

Lying and deception have always been a central facet of U.S. politics and policy. What we assumed separated us from the rest of the planet was this false notion that our governmental mechanics outed the bad actors. We put our faith in process, and we were fools.

Military

A Lost Son of Texas

Freddy’s mother died last August at the age of 94. Were she still with us, she’d have another battle on her hands because The Medal of Honor recipient’s name, photo, and story have been taken down from Pentagon and Department of Defense and the Naval History and Heritage Command web sites.

Trump

A Warm Place in Hell

"You're just a dude. You look like a McKinsey consultant. Or some Wall St. rando." He laughed. Hard. "Wall St. I mean, a huge client base for me, that's for sure!"

Economy

The Great Leap Forward

Yeah, that's from Chairman Mao, but it fits. Or was it Richard Nixon? Maybe J.D. Vance?

Religion

False Profits

Evangelicals have become a political force in this country, and they hope to take over every facet of our existence. Trump, an irreligious man, has them all fooled into believing he is a believer. He has never read the Bible, but, if asked, he’d respond with, “Nobody knows more about God than me.”

Texas: Furry Dildo Roundup Time

OPSEC is good... so we can confirm Signal chat intercepted by morons. The Furries are frightening. THC may put you in the TDC. And they're coming for your dildos. Repeat: They're coming for your dildos.
