If gov shuts down, Social Security benefits will continue to go out.

That's because Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are among the mandatory spending that isn't subject to annual appropriations from Congress.

A question about Trump's real estate fraud judgement

If he was cheating so much on his NY property evaluations, wouldn't he have been doing the same on his properties outside NY? How long before prosecutors in other states and countries take a hard careful look at what he claimed those properties to be worth?

Is there a Dem willing to run against McCarthy?

I know he comes from a very red district, but even so -- wouldn't it be great if we could defeat his sorry ass

Let's be clear about malignant narcissism

Donald Trump is a malignant narcissist, which is a psychological syndrome comprising an extreme mix of narcissism, antisocial behavior, aggression, and sadism. Grandiose, and always ready to raise hostility levels, the malignant narcissist undermines families and organizations in which they are involved, and dehumanizes the people with whom they associate.

No doubt, we all knew what a dangerous, vile, and degenerate person he is. At his advanced age of 77, there is little hope that he will ever be cured of this personality disorder. The best thing for us, and all the people around him is to incarcerate his sorry ass.

Thanks for letting me vent.

His mug shot

I think he posed before a mirror for several days to come up with the pose in his mug shot. His mug shot pose is staged. Yes he's probably pissed, but his anger is what he wants his base to act out in words and deeds.
