    The DEI Black Helicopter thing, 30 years ago it was just Black Helicopters. Although some of the latter fly around Tacoma, although easily explained. 4/160 SOAR.

  2. 2

    Low-information dumbshits posted on Xitter (here) that the Army helicopter involved in the crash was flown by a transgender pilot (and named her).

    Typical of stupid Trumper fuckwads who never fact-check anything, they didn’t know what they were talking about, or were lying. The pilot they called out, who is very much alive, called them out.

    When you publicly make an ass of yourself on the internet in front of millions of people, you should feel embarrassed. But Trumpers are as incapable of feeling shame or embarrassment as they are of getting facts straight. She should smack these asswipes with a defamation lawsuit.

    Hillary Clinton was right, Trumpers are a basket of deplorables.

    California farmers voted mostly for Trump. Trump just wasted their water reserves for summer drought on a publicity stunt, and flooded their farms.

  5. 5

    “Photo of beautiful water flow that I just opened in California. Today, 1.6 billion gallons and, in 3 days, it will be 5.2 billion gallons. Everybody should be happy about this long fought Victory! I only wish they listened to me six years ago – There would have been no fire!”

    Tulare County. “Yeah you just ordered the corp of engineers to drain the reservoir farmers here use all summer for crops AND we already paid federal government for into a lower reservoir that isn’t connected to the LA Aqueduct so unless you’ve got plans for spending billions on some kind of pumping system…

    Oh and see you in court.”

    Tulare County 2024
    Trump 60%
    Harris 38%

    Senate:
    Garvey 61%
    Schiff 38%

    ‘We the Democratic Party thank you for the two Republican House pickups in 2026.”

  6. 6

    @4,5

    Oh STFU in my decades of experience selling real estate no one knows as much about water as me. I could farm 6000 corn bushels per acre if I had a farm. I know more about this than anyone alive.

    Stop whining. There will never be another fire.

  7. 7

    A Republican paramilitary team kidnapped a family in Milwaukee, including a young toddler, bound their hands, forced them into the back of a rental van and drove them outside the city to be held in makeshift cages.

    They were grabbed for being observed speaking Spanish.

    They are all citizens born in the United States to US citizen parents.

  8. 8

    Sting joined Stevie Wonder at the Fire Aid concert to perform ‘Higher Ground.

    Stevie Changed his lyrics

    Powers keep on lyin’, yeah
    While your people keep on dyin’
    This leader keep on lyin’
    World keep on turnin’
    ‘Cause it won’t be too long
    DEI forever

    Someone who said he knew Elmo Musk well claimed that, well depending on your perspective, Elmo is NOT a Nazi.

    From this person’s perspective, a Nazi believes a certain race is better than everyone else.

    Elmo otoh believes ELMO is better than everyone else.

  10. 10

    So remember when MAGA was calling for the the DEI head of the FBI to be fired because of failures on the day The Messiah was hit in the ear by a piece of shrapnel?

    Man, that team must have been totally incompetent to let a shooter get a clean line like that.

    The new acting FBI head is the former head of his personal detail from that day. There’s a picture of him. He’s the one grabbing his left arm and trying to drag him away when Donnie was fist pumpinb.

    Of COURSE he’s white.

  11. 11

    I’m sure Naddler will be all over that someone gifted 26,000 shares of DJT:US to Kash Patel on January 28th, 2025.

  12. 12

    @4 Thank God. We need him to really piss off many people in order to get rid of the scourge. Let him do more damage. We need less ATC and more plane crashes. We need more tariffs and higher prices. We need more of everything bad, it’s the only way he goes.

  13. 13

    We need dead cows and dead birds and eggs @ $40.00 per dozen.

    The Repukes that voted for him with their wallet and disregard for justice, equality, and freedom really need to be afflicted.

  16. 16

    @9 And if he believes in a god, and prays to that god, he probably thanks his god every day that he wasn’t born black.

  17. 17

    @11 What Securities and Exchange commission? Securities won’t be regulated anymore. See #12 above for further clarity.

  18. 18

    @13 I think we should all agree to withhold aid, comfort, and sympathy from Trumper wrist-cutters. After all, they’ve afflicted not only themselves but also the rest of us.

  19. 19

    ‘You are making it hard for us!’ Black Americans for Trump member rips president on CNN

  20. 20

    @18 Refer to #18 above, which is sufficient for now, and save the “go fuck yourself” for later, when he finds himself in a cage for driving, walking, or shopping while black.

  21. 21

    Prices were a key issue in 2024, but Trump makes clear they’re not his top priority

  22. 22

    Senior career administrators at the federal OPM have reported that access to data bases of federal employment records have been taken over by Republican operatives from outside the government and they have been locked out.

  23. 23

    Hochul tells Louisiana to fuck off.

    “I will never, under any circumstances, turn this doctor over to the state of Louisiana under any extradition requests,”

    Interstate compact does not apply. The Doctor was in New York performing a service that is 100% legal in New York. Louisiana and other states are trying to claim that the laws of THEIR state apply to people not within. The claim is analogous to the idea that a DA in Lynchburg TN, famous for a product that is illegal to consume there can haul a bartender in Kentucky on charges of violating the law because they served someone from Lynchburg a drink.

  25. 25

    Trump has an itch to kill, so I just assume that hiding in every policy of his, someone’s gonna die. I wasn’t wrong this time; I found this in an AOL News article (lifted from CNN) titled, “Your complete guide to tariffs”:

    And for China, Trump has said tariffs would be aimed at forcing the country to make good on what he said was a stated promise to him that the government would execute people caught sending fentanyl to the United States.

    https://www.aol.com/finance/everything-know-trump-tariffs-were-100046716.html

    While this might not seem on the surface like a bad thing, given Trump’s antagonism to due process and his track record of wanting innocent people executed, this goes well beyond any Charles Bronson scenario. It amounts to Trump is ordering China to kill people, and he’s not fussy about who they kill. If China fulfills his quota with randomly selected political prisoners, that’s fine with him.

  26. 26

    The rate of deportation has declined since the Republican Party seized control and the percentage of criminals being deported has also declined.

    Republicans are corrupt, incompetent, rapists and drunks.

  27. 27

    Something curious about the break that lead to the closure of this long running cold fugitive case. Is it routine for funeral homes to fingerprint those who die from natural causes?

    https://youtu.be/HAd7T9_aNKE?si=p6rdeK8SWkWxbncP

    Alberta should investigate any cold cases they have, in case she went for the trifecta while in Canada. Turns out authorities had been searching in the wrong place, after she escaped from a Mexican prison.

    https://www.youtube.com/live/Ynqj6WveeBs?si=o7ogETIS4NS8sN3g

  28. 28

    Aside from shooting America’s own balls off with his tariffs, Trump’s spokes twit’s claim that fentanyl has killed “tens of millions” of Americans is an exaggeration by a factor of 100-plus times the actual number:

    Over a quarter million Americans have died from fentanyl overdoses since 2018.

    https://www.addictiongroup.org/resources/fentanyl-statistics/

    She’s not exactly covering herself in glory. She’s as big a liar as her boss. I thought Kayleigh McEnany was a ninny, but this one’s even dumber.

  29. 29

    More fun and corruption.

    The CDC official account today posted that the will no longer distribute information via email and all info would be posted to their official Twatter account.

    Alberta’s premier calls on her country to “fast track” coast-to-coast Canadian pipelines for oil and gas.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D166MH-UmA

    You know what this means, right? Nearly all Canadian oil and gas exports come to the U.S., but all-Canadian pipelines to seaports can mean only one thing: In the future, Canada will sell its oil and gas to other countries, and America can go screw.

  31. 31

    “Canada’s crude oil has used to have an increasingly significant role in U.S. refineries”

    “Canada’s crude oil exports to the United States amounted to used to amount to 24% of U.S. refinery throughput in as of 2023 ….”

    “The price per barrel of Western Canadian Select crude oil (WCS) is used to be typically lower than the U.S. benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI).”

    https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=62664

    Kiss goodbye to 4.2 million bpd from Canada and Mexico!

    In earliest human history, rugged individualism wasn’t a viable survival strategy. Our ancient ancestors lived in hunter-gatherer bands based on cooperation and sharing. These early societies were a primitive form of communism. Thus, communism probably was the first type of government, without which we wouldn’t be here. I’m not saying it’s a good system for today; we outgrew communism millennia ago. Modern technological civilization has also outgrown Republican conservatism; like communism, it’s an outmoded form of social organization unsuited for our times; a throwback to anterior times. Some people just don’t realize it yet.

  35. 35

    The Tariffs shall continue until you agree to be annexed.

    Donald J. Trump
    @realDonaldTrump
    We pay hundreds of Billions of Dollars to
    SUBSIDIZE Canada. Why? There is no reason. We don’t need anything they have. We have unlimited Energy, should make our own Cars, and have more Lumber than we can ever use. Without this massive subsidy, Canada ceases to exist as a viable Country. Harsh but true! Therefore, Canada should become our Cherished 51st State. Much lower taxes, and far better military protection for the people of Canada — AND NO TARIFFS!

  36. 36

    Wall Steet lobbying group who backed Trump for reelection now pleads with Trump to stop all the tariffs he’s tossing around.

  39. 39

    CNN headline: “With tariffs signed, Trump warns of ‘pain’ to come for Americans”

    Is this a promise made, promise kept? I sure don’t remember Trump promising “pain” during his campaign. Maybe I missed that, but I thought he was promising lower gas and egg prices. Is it possible he was lying?

  41. 41

    @38 In the world wars, Canadians were fighting long before Americans joined the frays. They’re more reliable allies than we are. Now, we’re the enemy.

  42. 42

    Republican pollster Frank Luntz said Friday that President Trump’s voters are “tired” of being accused of being sexist and racist.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5121413-frank-luntz-trump-voters-tired-accused-racism/

    Then stop supporting for a racist pussygrabber.

    Vance defends Trump’s DEI comments after DC plane crash: Trump ‘wasn’t blaming anybody’

    https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5121382-vance-defends-trumps-dei-comments-after-dc-plane-crash-trump-wasnt-blaming-anybody/

    Jaydee is telling “stories” again. His stories, of course, are fiction. Many people now realize his best-selling memoir “Hillbilly Elegy” is partly fiction, and all of his political speeches are fiction. Like his boss, Jaydee is an epic liar.

    He apparently didn’t watch the press conference in which Trump’s airhead press secretary blamed the crash on Biden and the Democrats, because that sure as hell was finger-pointing and blame-shifting.

  44. 44

    The concept of taxing employee perks has been debated before in Congress and never made it far, but with the size of the deficit and Trump wanting trillions of dollars in expiring and new tax cuts, some budget pay-fors will need to be found, and this one would dip into workers’ pockets.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/02/to-help-pay-for-trump-tax-cuts-new-taxes-on-work-perks-are-gop-target.html

    Yep, take it out of the workers’ pockets. Which, of course, was the GOP’s plan all along.

  45. 45

    There’s nothing new about Republican plans to massively shift tax burdens from the rich to the working class. They’ve long advocated for eliminating income taxes on capital gains, dividends, interest, and rents, which comprise nearly all the income of the very rich, and replacing those taxes with a federal value-added tax, which would amount to a roughly 30% to 40% sales tax on everything the working class purchases. The upshot of these GOP tax schemes is that wage earners would pay all the taxes while the billionaire and millionaire classes skate tax-free.

    If you vote for Republicans, this is what you’re voting for.

  46. 46

    The SEC will no longer be policing insider trading and financial fraud by Republican politicians, donors, and supporters:

    Lawyers at the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) have been told they need to seek permission from the politically appointed leadership before formally launching probes …. In recent days, some enforcement staff have been told that they will need to seek the Commission’s approval for all formal orders of investigation, which are required to issue subpoenas for testimony or documents ….

    https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/02/secs-republican-led-commission-tightens-oversight-of-probes-sources-say.html

  47. 47

    I don’t mean to offend your sensibilities, Trump voters, but facts are facts: You are all very gullible and very stupid.

  49. 49

    Let’s say Trump and Musk illegally fire 500,000 civil servants, they all sue, and five years from now courts reinstate them with back pay and benefits averaging $150,000 a year. That would cost taxpayers, um, $375 billion, all of it constituting “waste, fraud, and abuse” by Trump and Musk.

    But that actually doesn’t sound like a lot to me. It’s possibly less than Musk’s space ventures will take from the Treasury during Trump’s second term.

    Oh, and one more thing, destroying 500,000 high-paying jobs probably will push the economy into a recession, with massive trickle-down impacts on the kinds of jobs held by Trump voters.

  50. 50

    41)Up Tgere, probably not the time to remind Conservatives they started the decline of the RCAF. Still a few bitter over Diefenbaker cancelling the CF-105. It has spawned a few conspiracy theories saying it was cancelled on orders from Eisenhower, because Douglas, McDonnell, Lockheed, and North American were jealous . Who just happened to be waiting with job offers for employees.

  51. 51

    Since one of Metro’s suppliers is a Canadian company, I was wondering if Canadian sourced parts become more expensive, probably going to see more authorized vandalism of buses for parts to keep others running. New Flyer’s US Assembly plants are in Minnesota and Alabama. Heard wherever possible, Metro insists Minnesota.

  52. 52

    @51 It won’t matter to Trump, Vance, or Elon, because they don’t like public transportation anyway. I’m waiting to see if they outlaw bike lanes and jail those who built them.

  53. 53

    52)Then I guess if New Flyer decides they can’t afford 2 US facilities, Anniston, Alabama won’t miss the jobs, and investment they put into the place. Probably shouldn’t have built their Vehicle Innovation Center in a state run by a party opposed to Electric vehicles. Although since they have to competitive bid tge contracts, the operator in the city where their Minnesota plant is, has bought from their California based Competitor. Gillig has always been willing to innovate, if they didn’t, they would have stuck with horse-drawn buggies.

  54. 54

    The National Association of Home Builders, whose membership prayed daily for Trump to win and SaVe AmUrIkA, has written a long letter to Fat Hitler begging to exempt building products from his trade wars with the world.

  56. 56

    Yep, take it out of the workers’ pockets. Which, of course, was the GOP’s plan all along.

    Oh my what ever happened to:

    TEA

    as in “taxed enough already”???

    old hat eh pants shitter sicko-phants?

  57. 57

    What the fuck?

    Amid ongoing turmoil inside the U.S. Agency for International Development, sources told ABC News that Department of Government Efficiency staffers have moved to take over offices, escalating tensions as more senior staff members are locked out of internal systems, additional employees are placed on administrative leave, and the agency’s newly appointed chief of staff resigned as the Elon Musk-led agency works to assert control over the USAID, which oversees foreign aid, disaster relief and international development programs.

    https://www.aol.com/turmoil-inside-usaid-doge-reps-220400007.html

    My understanding is DOGE is a citizen advisory board, and Elon and its staffers are not government employees, so how can they take over and run a government agency? They have to be federal employees, and go through an appointment or hiring process, before they can do that. This doesn’t look legal or legitimate to me.

  59. 59

    Donald J. Trump & @realDonald Trump
    South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won’t stand for it, we will act.
    Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!

    THOSE NIGGER’S STOLE MY EMRALDS!

    41)Back on Canada Day, they interred their second Unknown Soldier from WWI, because since Newfoundland wasn’t part of the Dominion of Canada at the time, the one in Ottawa doesn’t represent Newfoundland’s fallen.

    https://www.youtube.com/live/JMMcfD4B1Vg?si=TC5HIW7-MuqPiN0U

    Also in Afghanistan, a reservist from the Royal Newfoundland Regiment was killed in action, the unit’s first since WWI.
