Yeah, if only. Kudos to Gov. Pritzker. Kudos, applause, standing ovation, well spoken!

C K Smith's avatar

100% agree! Gov. Pritzker also needs to troll Trump like Gov. Newsom does on social media. Then, all the rest of the Democratic governors should join in. Can you imagine how Trump's head would explode over that?!!! I hope the mainstream media catches that on their "breaking news."

Pritzker doesn't need to copycat Newsom. It's good to have multiple voices standing up to the POS in various ways. Keep it coming, Newsom and Pritzker!!!

I was going to say, perhaps someone should be following tRump with a plastic tarp, in case his head does explode . . . but upon reflection, I realized there's not much up there that 1/3 of a sheet of Bounty couldn't take care of.

You're being generous, Annette.

I fear that all that would fall out is a bit of dust - too little to bother sweeping up.

I wish we could find out what is in there sooner rather than later - the whole world is owed an explanation.

Andy, has your reporting revealed yet that the bone spur epidemic among the National Guard members originated from a podiatrist's lab in China?

FACT: Research in China has been investigating the role of podiatrists in specific interventions, such as foot surgeries and the application of specialized offloading techniques for complex foot conditions.

POSSIBILITY: Consequently, bone spur cases are being reexamined and many of the MD notes used to dodge the draft in China are being rescinded. Some people in the US executive branch fear this phenomenon may spread worldwide. 🤔👣

Lucky for Trump that he managed to avoid any draft-deferrable injury to his pussy-grabbing hand!

Otherwise, he'd likely not be president now!

This is likely the source of the Chinese leak: “ Foot binding started in China during the Song Dynasty (10th-13th century), likely originating with the elite and possibly inspired by a concubine's dance during the reign of Emperor Li Yu of the Southern Tang dynasty just before the Song. The practice involved tightly binding the feet of young girls to create a shortened, lotus-shaped foot, and it spread throughout all social classes over time, lasting until the early 20th century.”

I think brain rot begins as bone spurs and works its way up the empty vessel, causing swollen ankles, fat fanny, diarrhea of the mouth, orange face and bad hair. Hopefully the National Guard members will get over it quickly before the full disease sets in.
