He’s disgusting but no more so than his boss. Who thought up cutting heat assistance for the winter as well as food? Could it be Miller or maybe Vought or clueless Scump who wanted a few millions more for more gold and marble in the Epstein Ballroom? Hitler had nothing on these cretins. Damn them all to hell.

Any candidate in '28 who vows to turn Trump's ballroom into a mixed use soup kitchen/

homeless shelter/ after school basketball courts for inner city youth, will get my vote, and

my time, and my money. 100 million signatures on a petition would be a fine start!

Imagine the entirety of Schmuck Tower given over to a gigantic food bank, soup kitchen, job center, youth hostel and gym, etc. It could be Mamdani's signature project, with Knicks, Nets and Liberty sponsorship, players showing up for benefits, etc. I'll bet Bloomberg would donate if his name could be on the food bank.

Hitler actually did some economic good at first before he tore the world apart. Miller isn't even THAT good. Yes, Andy, chalk can be a powerful weapon. I will definitely take my grandson's "ammunition"with me to the next NO KINGS protest, for I am certain that there will be many. Perhaps the top-brass generals will join us to protest that unnecessary meeting that cost 6 million dollars only to have them humiliated and called fat. Yes, it isn't very wise to diss the guys who really know how the battle is won!

I must disagree with that, Linda McCaughey. Miller, Voght, Bondi, Noem, Hegseth, etc. - they would be spinning their wheels in the mud if not for Dump. Dump gave them real power. And they are doing exactly what bigot-extraordinaire Dump wants done. Nobody is filled with more hate than Dump. He's savoring every second of watching his demon minions cause the suffering that is his amusement, while he uses his own time to enrich himself.

I can agree with that, Linda McCaughey. Miller is up there with Bannon (who is still active out of the spotlight). Miller is like a modern day Roy Cohn.

But, Miller would be just one more self-loathing White Supremicist screaming on the internet if not for Dump raising him out of the dung-heap and into our government. Who, besides other government bigots, even heard of Miller before Dump ran for office?

Actually the guy who began cutting off heat and food for the winter for people you don't like is the Orange Balloon's idol Putin who does it by bombing infrastructure in the Ukraine. And by the way, why doesn't the UN condemn Putin's bombing of civilian infrastructure in Ukraine the same way they condemned Israel for defending itself against Hamas in Gaza?

Thank you for what you do!!!! The comparisons of Donald Trump to Marie Antoinette have long been in my thoughts, never more so as when he decided to build a lavish ballroom while cancelling children's cancer research and denying food benefits to the hungry. I've also hoped that we would see a Nuremberg-type trial for Trump's inner circle (not least of all Steven Miller) following the demise of this administration. I have three wishes...1) that many of those who voted for Trump have finally been able to see through his charade and the errors of their decision, 2) that Independent voters have the same epiphany and create a wave of sentiment AGAINST the MAGA agenda and Project 2025 and 3) there is no major election interference perpetrated by Trump. With his militarization of "blue cities," I'm worried (but mentally preparing) for armed conflict in the streets at an elevated level (it's already happening!). Unfortunately, we have an impotent Congress and a politically corrupted Supreme Court. I'm alarmed at how UNINFORMED a large segment of the population is. Obviously, those reading your column (and others like Joyce Vance, Democracy Docket, etc.) seem to be in the minority of Americans. Indeed..."we're in this together!"
