On the day we honor our heroes, how sad that this putrid imbecile leads the country they died for. I am a lifelong pacifist and leftie, but how anyone could support this clown after hearing his McCain insult never ceases to amaze me. I guess it's National Devious doc Day and here's wishing Bone Spurs for all the pitiful MAGAS who can listen to his dribble. I can't stand to look at him anymore and thank God for MUTE.
Don't forget January 6th sitting on his fat ass for hours while brave Capitol police were risking their lives to save our democracy from hillbilly fascists. After 1,600 were convicted and imprisoned he pardoned them.
He didn't stand on his fat ass. He SAT on his fat ass. He did take a break, remember, but that was only to jump up to choke a Secret Service agent who refused to drive him to the Capitol. We do need to be accurate about these things, you know.
Today he referred to the administration that governed for the previous 4 years -and by implication those of us who supported it- as "scum" He is the most insulting human i have ever experienced. If we are scum, what does that make him and his tribe? Sludge?
wait what? I unplugged this weekend. He called Biden scum? Even if done indirectly, that is the most disgusting thing I've heard yet. There is not one single decent bone in Lard-A-Maga's bloated and mishapen body. He does not belong in any society - he's devoid of any social skills whatsoever. I'm really pissed......
Take it from a fellow pedant, both the Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries address ‘arse’ as a UK word for the buttocks and/or as an epithet, and ‘equate’ it with ass in the States, and perhaps Canada.
I welcome corrections, etc. from any lexophiles, grammarians, copy-editors, et alia. In fact, from anyone, like me, who is prone to distraction.
I totally agree. And a week after they were released, 12 of them were already arrested.
After all, it's what they do best.....assault people! Play army! BTW, I was on Kinzinger, and couldn't leave a post cuz there was no post or reply button. Andy, could you look into this for there is no way for me to contact him.
I have also been having a problem with not being able to like and post on Substacks for which I am a paid subscriber. I don’t know why. This is on my PC. However, when I switch browsers from Firefox to Edge I am no longer blocked out. Never a problem on my phone.
In keeping with this, has anyone with a loud voice spoken about the contrast between the pardons of the 01/06 attackers and the arrest of a mayor and congresswoman in Newark, NJ?
Hi from another Rosemary. I was gobsmacked by the McCain remarks when they happened as well. But he seemed to shake it off in a sort of "consider the source" way.
My favorite vet (Tet offensive 1968) is going to a sponsored shindig on the Mississippi with other vets. Beer brats and pontoon boats!
The love of my life (Tet offensive, 1968) has been gone for twenty years. He couldn't handle what he saw and did there, and dove into a bottle when he came home. I'm so glad you still have yours!
Thank you, Susie. It's long enough ago for me to have a good life without him - though I think of him often, good man that he was - but the thought of Bone Spurs is instantly enraging.
1968 was a bad year for a lot of us. Worse one of my life. I got PTSD that year . Some years fade into the haze of the decades but some are burnt into memory. For me '68 was such a year. I wonder if 2025 is going to be like that for some young people today but hopefully in a good way.
Years ago I met a homeless vet, Bob. It's a long, long story, but I ended up with his dog, Lady Bird. In his honor I trained her to be a therapy pet team with me and we'd visit the vets at the VA with Love On a Leash. Sometimes the ones from the Vietnam war era would open up to me. Stories I will never, ever forget.
My wish is that the leaders of these countries would, like Sumo wrestlers, undress and get into the ring on their own. Duke it out. Leave the rest of us cheering on the sidelines, safe, with our popcorn and non-alcoholic drinks.
Aha! "A wrestler wins by either pushing their opponent outside the ring or forcing them to touch the ground with a part of their body other than the soles of their feet." From AI via the internet. Seeing how Trump likes to "push" and "shove" people, including the leaders of other countries, it would be a fight worthy of turning your head away!
Michael -- Thank you for your service. My dad was a career NCO (Korean Conflict). It pained me so that TFF was the speaker at the commencement ceremony at West Point -- a SECOND time! A proud day for the cadets, who were schooled during Biden's administration...not TFF's.
Interesting thought, Michael. I think you're right, and '68 was bad for lots of us. What those unfortunate young people face today is even more maddening, because the enemy is within us, and by deliberate choice, however idiotic and cruel.
I am sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences. My late husband served two tours in Vietnam as a combat medic. He saw things no one should ever have to see.
My husband was in Vietnam (68-69) in the Mekong Delta. He has been fighting this war since then. Hates Donny Convict. He works out everyday to keep himself semi-sane. Give my best to your favorite vet!
Memorial Day celebrates golfing, and provides space to look ahead and luxuriate in the certainty of future grift.
The only downside is that old reliable Putin has JUST gone “crazy”? It is so shocking and such a surprise. Does it mean T has temporarily lost his immoral compass and role model?
Just like he swings on tariffs (manipulating the stock market so he and his buddies can buy low, then he pulls tariffs in the other direction so they can sell their shares high… or is that too clever for him?)
He has asked Americans to go through a time of pain so we can reach our “Golden Age.” Since we all know that’s not happening, I wonder if he will keep moving the goalpost on the time things will get better for us, just forget about it and never mention it again (see lowering the price of eggs), or just try to keep us busy with continued distractions.
I think that what he who must not be named meant was gilded age, maybe between 1890 - 1915, when the wealthy were wealthy and they did not have to put up with guff from unions, minorities, women, definitely not non straight persons. We knew our place, had no power or even minuscule wealth, retirement, health care, worked twelve hours a day, worked hard and died young, lacked a modicum of upward mobility and were a mere throwaway commodity. Yep, America was a company town and that is what he and his ilk are bringing back.
You are quite correct. (I don't say "right" anymore.) I am working on a Golden/Gilded Age page for a book I am working on. It was just like the Old Testament except the rich are richer now.
He is not "smart enough" to know anything about tariffs or economics. He doesn't even read - we know that! He has "Mein Kampf" in his bedroom for "show"! Anything he says or does that sounds even vaguely "intelligent" comes out of Project 2025 or from advisers! He is by far the stupidest man to hold the office of President of the USA, and he may be the last as he brings on a dictatorship and Congress and the Senate will not stop him because they are beholden to him for some reason or other!!! The situation is disgusting and so is he! Also, we are the exact same age (both born in 6/46) and I understand his small failings as well as his large ones! Maybe Bernie hasn't lost anything, but if Drump EVER had any brains (?), 🤔 he is losing them now. It is so over his head, one only has to listen to any impromptu words, and you can see how stupid he is...and the press goes along, always showing him autographing "big" issues with a flourish of his signature! DISGUSTING 🫣! I don't remember that kind of constant coverage for
any other President! It is all a "dog and pony show" and it should make us all SICK!
He does not read because he cannot read. He is, in fact, a semi-functional illiterate. He is also innumerate. And he doesn't know the first thing about how tariffs really work. Nor does he know the first thing about economics. He just uses whatever he thinks makes him sound "strong". He lacks the self-awareness to realize that all he is nothing but a weak, sniveling p*** ant.
The media go way out of their way to sanitize, normalize, and sane-wash him and his misadministration. They are doing us and this nation no favors.
Isn't that the truth? I apologize for the insult to p*** ants. They are way better than the Convicted Felon, no doubt about it. But then, who or what isn't?
I think it means he is close to simply washing his hands of the war altogether. Taking his toys and going home in a pout - which could never be called righteous. As long as he has someone else to blame his work is done.
No problem for the creature, there’s always Biden to take the blame. Biden is also the cause of Melania moving into her own bedroom with a locked door…right….
Besties only in the sense that both are ruthless and cynical opportunists. They form temporary marriages of convenience when it benefits them but both are ever aware that the other, at any moment, could draw
It's all about transactionalism. How can Trump rake it in? Faster and better and more? End the war, take the minerals, and make the people of Ukraine pay for it. What's wrong with that idea?
Fair weather besties. Remember, trump was and is Putin’s useful idiot. Seems Putin lulled orange guy into thinking they were equals. No big surprise there.
He is despicable. He sat with the President of South Africa, showed him pages and pages (from his "human printer...the blonde...who must be dumb as a rock because she gave him pictures that were taken in the Congo) and after every picture he showed he just said DEATH. DEATH. DEATH. And made a complete fool of himself! I hope they at least fed the guy before throwing him out before lunch like Zelensky.
I'd like to see him do that with Putin, from the Oval Office, packed with JD Vance, Marco Rubio and the other sycophants, and show him page after page after page of UKRAINE and do the same. In front of the TV cameras! A nice cup of polonium tea Donnie? Putin is laughing at this babbling, blithering village idiot. Putin would probably have Tulsi do it.
I don' know about podiatrists, but all us (male) medical interns got drafted back in '68. We had to report for an army physical, and as I think back, I don't recall that you could be designated 4F with just a letter. Hmmmm.
Also, the minute he insulted John McCain with impunity, I knew he was on to something, that he and his advisors had tapped into the dark reaches of the country that the rest of us thought was gone.
I think you could have been designated 4F with a letter if there were enough money, position, and power behind that letter. A lot of guys who didn't have Daddies to pay a quack to say they had bone spurs were drafted.
I think you're right about 4F. A letter could get you a temporary deferment. If memory serves (no pun inteded) it was a “1Y” and you'd get called back later. Later there was the lottery. If you were lucky and your number was high enough you'd never get called back.
Rosemarie I could not agree with you more I thought (obviously incorrectly) that his remarks about John McCain (an American Hero) would disqualify him in a flash. He is below contempt period.
The amazement never leaves me. Along with sorrow and ache. I am simply, to this day, unable to wrap my mind around any of the 2024 election, the hatred, the stunning ignorance, bigotry, the totally open grift and the destruction of democracy.
Wish I could reply at greater length, but I'm working overtime to pay for my dog's trauma treatment. Poor Molly, she used to be such a happy little pooch.
I have a new plan to calm the little nervous pooch. I will begin reading Borowitz to her every day. She may not laugh but her tail will wag like crazy. Wish us luck!
Ooh- have any of you watched a Mary Trump video in a while? Any time she plays a clip of her uncle his voice sounds like a tiny insect in a cartoon. Which is fitting.
Rosemary thank you for this. I just returned from singing at a Memorial Day service and hearing Trumps name in a proclamation almost made me puke. You are right on the money.
On the day we honor our heroes, how sad that this putrid imbecile leads the country they died for. I am a lifelong pacifist and leftie, but how anyone could support this clown after hearing his McCain insult never ceases to amaze me. I guess it's National Devious doc Day and here's wishing Bone Spurs for all the pitiful MAGAS who can listen to his dribble. I can't stand to look at him anymore and thank God for MUTE.
Don't forget January 6th sitting on his fat ass for hours while brave Capitol police were risking their lives to save our democracy from hillbilly fascists. After 1,600 were convicted and imprisoned he pardoned them.
He didn't stand on his fat ass. He SAT on his fat ass. He did take a break, remember, but that was only to jump up to choke a Secret Service agent who refused to drive him to the Capitol. We do need to be accurate about these things, you know.
Today he referred to the administration that governed for the previous 4 years -and by implication those of us who supported it- as "scum" He is the most insulting human i have ever experienced. If we are scum, what does that make him and his tribe? Sludge?
He’s reached a new low. I cannot imagine any other President calling his predecessor “scum.” We know he’s describing himself.
In his first term, he sank to the bottom and had to spread radially.
Will karma ever catch up with him?
No self-respecting disease is willing to even approach him.
Oh well, he had syphilis, but sought the advice of a physician ‘friend’.
Friend in single [‘]s because he cares only for money.
He did have Covid also. Yes, money is his best friend and only companion.
wait what? I unplugged this weekend. He called Biden scum? Even if done indirectly, that is the most disgusting thing I've heard yet. There is not one single decent bone in Lard-A-Maga's bloated and mishapen body. He does not belong in any society - he's devoid of any social skills whatsoever. I'm really pissed......
Or, decaying landfill.
Perhaps festering manure in a horse barn.
I was accurate!
Yes, sorry, I read he "stood on his ass." Must have been somebody else's ass he was on. :-)
Undoubtedly. He blames every ass out there but his own. Nowadays he stands on his favorite ass- Marco Rubio.
100% of him is what comes out of an ass [the body part, not the animal].
Yes, the animal ass is a noble beast and a million times better than the two-legged orange felon creature.
Where is karma, when so badly needed?
Then use the correct word: arse.
Please rein in your hostility.
Take it from a fellow pedant, both the Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries address ‘arse’ as a UK word for the buttocks and/or as an epithet, and ‘equate’ it with ass in the States, and perhaps Canada.
I welcome corrections, etc. from any lexophiles, grammarians, copy-editors, et alia. In fact, from anyone, like me, who is prone to distraction.
The only reason US mispronounces arse is because the Brits drop their Rs. And language flows from what is heard rather than print.
Yes, parse the arse!
As the Millennials say, “no worries”
Hey, come on, given the size of his ass there's room for everybody... sit, stand, whatever!
You shouldn’t talk that way about VanCel. He’s lost a little weight since he started berating foreign leaders.
The phrase “Blue lives matter” vanished.
OutRAGEous! Still.
I totally agree. And a week after they were released, 12 of them were already arrested.
After all, it's what they do best.....assault people! Play army! BTW, I was on Kinzinger, and couldn't leave a post cuz there was no post or reply button. Andy, could you look into this for there is no way for me to contact him.
I’m pretty sure you can only comment on kinzingers page if you’re a paid subscriber.
I replied on the group instead of your comment. I am a subscriber, but re-booted and all is now well. But thank you for responding.
I have also been having a problem with not being able to like and post on Substacks for which I am a paid subscriber. I don’t know why. This is on my PC. However, when I switch browsers from Firefox to Edge I am no longer blocked out. Never a problem on my phone.
Try re-booting. It worked for me!
In keeping with this, has anyone with a loud voice spoken about the contrast between the pardons of the 01/06 attackers and the arrest of a mayor and congresswoman in Newark, NJ?
Does anyone with loud voices GIVE a damn any more about that sort of thing? The NYT sure as hell doesn't!
This was a wrench, but for now I am taking a break from the NYT.
I quit the NYT in June, 2024.
Shameful
--while the White House furniture he sat on is still tinged with sulfur and shame!

I'm grateful for your post.
Only chance Trump would have at winning is if he sat on the opponent.
love you Marcia for what you did in Bob's honor, and for the benefit of others. hugs.....
Visualizing Trump as a tot a lly inept sumo wrestler !!
Aha! "A wrestler wins by either pushing their opponent outside the ring or forcing them to touch the ground with a part of their body other than the soles of their feet." From AI via the internet. Seeing how Trump likes to "push" and "shove" people, including the leaders of other countries, it would be a fight worthy of turning your head away!
Why "inept"? He's got weight in his favor.
But I have to admit I don't know the rules of Sumo wrestling. Now to check Wikipedia...
You did something truly magnificent in Bob's honor. Thank you, on his behalf.
Michael -- Thank you for your service. My dad was a career NCO (Korean Conflict). It pained me so that TFF was the speaker at the commencement ceremony at West Point -- a SECOND time! A proud day for the cadets, who were schooled during Biden's administration...not TFF's.

Viet Nam? The home front? Both? ((((((hug)))))
Dr Judith...hear you LOUD & CLEAR !
Incomprehensible how people stomach his lies...and his face.
WPOAT....worst president of all time !
Today... we remember the BEST..the honor, bravery & devotion with which they served.
God Bless them all! Forever in our memories and in our hearts.🇺🇸
Don't even bother figuring it out, or how people can be so stupid. Not worth your time or effort.
YOU know who the brave were/are, and it certainly ain't him!!!!
I get that.
I am sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences. My late husband served two tours in Vietnam as a combat medic. He saw things no one should ever have to see.
Oh, I know. Among a zillion other things, I could never approach Bill from the back and right side - no matter the loving reason!
Don couldn't tolerate any loud, sharp noise. The Fourth of July was absolute torture for him.
The curse of war. I wish kindness and warmth to both your souls. Keep on keeping on.
My condolences, Judith, and admiration for both of you.
Thank you.
My condolences on your loss, and appreciation to him for his service.
Thanks.
May you have peace.
Thanks, John. It took awhile, but I think I finally do.
I am glad he is here to celebrate!
So am I!!!
My husband was in Vietnam (68-69) in the Mekong Delta. He has been fighting this war since then. Hates Donny Convict. He works out everyday to keep himself semi-sane. Give my best to your favorite vet!
To your favorite vet -- I thank you for your service. Best regards from an Army Brat.

The only downside is that old reliable Putin has JUST gone “crazy”? It is so shocking and such a surprise. Does it mean T has temporarily lost his immoral compass and role model?
t-Rump has never had a moral compass.
The dirt has always been there.
His compass always points directly back to him. Amoral Compass.
Good one.
So Bender, how’s about visiting the White House and the Oval Office for a little workout? Don’t want you to get rusty…..
--while any look in the mirror on his part should shatter it!
He’ll swing back.
Just like he swings on tariffs (manipulating the stock market so he and his buddies can buy low, then he pulls tariffs in the other direction so they can sell their shares high… or is that too clever for him?)
for him, yes. For his handlers, not for a moment.
He has asked Americans to go through a time of pain so we can reach our “Golden Age.” Since we all know that’s not happening, I wonder if he will keep moving the goalpost on the time things will get better for us, just forget about it and never mention it again (see lowering the price of eggs), or just try to keep us busy with continued distractions.
Does he think it’s a golden age because he’s p*ssing on us?
-because he has an abundance of s**t?
😂
I think that what he who must not be named meant was gilded age, maybe between 1890 - 1915, when the wealthy were wealthy and they did not have to put up with guff from unions, minorities, women, definitely not non straight persons.

Yep, America was a company town and that is what he and his ilk are bringing back.
The wealthy didn't have to pay taxes, on their wealth or income. It was a golden age if you were white, male and rich.
You are quite correct. (I don't say "right" anymore.) I am working on a Golden/Gilded Age page for a book I am working on. It was just like the Old Testament except the rich are richer now.
--until Haymarket Riot II.
Continued distractions until impeachment!
He is not "smart enough" to know anything about tariffs or economics. He doesn't even read - we know that! He has "Mein Kampf" in his bedroom for "show"!

OK, just to be fair, and for the record, p***ants are so much better than the two-legged orange guy.

True!!!
No problem for the creature, there’s always Biden to take the blame. Biden is also the cause of Melania moving into her own bedroom with a locked door…right….
Those two have essentially been separate for years. That marriage doesn't even rise to the level of a marriage of convenience.
Business partnership (not equal of course)
I wondered about that too. I thought trumpy and Putin were besties.
Besties only in the sense that both are ruthless and cynical opportunists. They form temporary marriages of convenience when it benefits them but both are ever aware that the other, at any moment, could draw
Casca's dagger.
I like your style. And, being a retired Latin teacher, I love "Lux Umbra Dei".
Mary- Plus Latine oblitus es quam ego umquam didici.
Nimis benignus es. Est autem “oblita es” quoniam femina sum. Eras discipulus bonus
Benignitas est nomen mihi proprium! De cetero, rem meam probavisti, o magister!"
It's easy. Walking away and leaving Ukraine in the lurch is exactly what is best for Putin!
I guess that’s how he’ll end it on day one. Oh wait. It’s Day What?
Day 3,665. Oh, wait, that's just how much I've aged since he was elected...
It's all about transactionalism. How can Trump rake it in? Faster and better and more? End the war, take the minerals, and make the people of Ukraine pay for it. What's wrong with that idea?
I think it's all show. Putin is the Convicted Felon's employer, after all.
Fair weather besties. Remember, trump was and is Putin’s useful idiot. Seems Putin lulled orange guy into thinking they were equals. No big surprise there.
Only in donald's tiny mind. Putin knows who he is dealing with, an imbecile.
He is despicable. He sat with the President of South Africa, showed him pages and pages (from his "human printer...the blonde...who must be dumb as a rock because she gave him pictures that were taken in the Congo) and after every picture he showed he just said DEATH.

In front of the TV cameras! A nice cup of polonium tea Donnie? Putin is laughing at this babbling, blithering village idiot. Putin would probably have Tulsi do it.
Well said misia.d. If Dumpy had to explain what Memorial Day is really all about I think his head would explode.
I don' know about podiatrists, but all us (male) medical interns got drafted back in '68. We had to report for an army physical, and as I think back, I don't recall that you could be designated 4F with just a letter. Hmmmm.

The sound of his voice makes my skin crawl!!
The sight of him puts me off my feed. I bought my mom a roll of stickers that she can stick over his face while she’s reading her paper.
That sounds wonderfully therapeutic! I might have to do that at the grocery store. 😆
Good idea, the stickers to cover his face. In our home we just cover the dog's eyes so she doesn't start growling.
LOL! I don’t think my dog has ever seen his face and she never will. I can’t imagine what the cost of trauma treatment would be…
Wish I could reply at greater length, but I'm working overtime to pay for my dog's trauma treatment. Poor Molly, she used to be such a happy little pooch.
Poor dear! Maybe this is a nation-wide experience!
I have a new plan to calm the little nervous pooch. I will begin reading Borowitz to her every day. She may not laugh but her tail will wag like crazy. Wish us luck!
👍🏽
I hope they are big stickers!
They are! They’re rainbow striped hedgehogs. Don’t ask. I just liked them. 🙄
Ooh- have any of you watched a Mary Trump video in a while? Any time she plays a clip of her uncle his voice sounds like a tiny insect in a cartoon. Which is fitting.
You are not alone, my dear. It’s sort of like…a hot, lazy wind blowing through a dried up field of corn in a bad drought.
Rosemary thank you for this. I just returned from singing at a Memorial Day service and hearing Trumps name in a proclamation almost made me puke. You are right on the money.
Right there with you.
--and the final buttons to be pushed beside "Mute": Impeach and Jail!
A majority of vets voted for the Orange Draft Dodger. Go figure....
That's what I told my VA doctor. I said they're gonna get what they deserve when they get their benefits cut. She just laughed.
He knows how to get serviced.
Rosemary- I can really relate to your MUTE comment. I've spared myself from listening to the voice of the "putrid imbecile" for years.
Damn skippy. I hope as you do. Also, tight shoes that they can't get off because their backs hurt from having their heads up their asses for so long.
I made my husband turn the TV OFF, mute isn't enough for me anymore. I need Drumpf to be forced to lie about his ratings.
