My wife and I, along with 20,000 Montanans, have our insurance through the wonderful Montana Health Co-op. As a result of Donald Trump’s vindictive and sadistic executive order to undermine Obamacare, it appears as if the co-op will have to pull out of the exchange. If 20,000 people in Montana are losing their health insurance, […]
If you aim a gun at a person’s head and shoot, you will be charged with murder—even if it takes a while for the victim to die. By ripping apart every environmental regulation they can get their hands on, Donald Trump and Scott Pruitt are aiming a gun at the world and shooting. Deaths won’t […]
Protests are for people who are not in power and are victims of injustice. The president and vice president of the United States are not entitled to protest, as they are the ones in power. The bigoted Trump-Pence stunt, to “protest” black football players protesting police violence, cost the American people hundreds of thousands of […]
Martyman is now on the ground in Puerto Rico, helping with the hurricane relief efforts. He had stowed away in the carton containing the paper towels Donald Trump tossed into the crowd. When I asked Martyman how he was able to know which roll to hide in, so he’d actually be thrown by our egomaniacal […]
Hey Republicans! I know you still insist that Donald Trump isn’t a bigot, and that you are not a bigot for voting for him. I also know that anything I write won’t change your mind. Nevertheless, I have to try. Here’s what Donald Trump tweeted at 5:19 a.m. this morning: “Such poor leadership ability […]
When I was a child, nothing was more embarrassing than my father showing off his Christianity, by praying aloud in restaurants. Now that I am an adult, nothing is more embarrassing than “my president” showing off his ignorance, by speaking aloud at the United Nations.
On the heels of Republican George W. Bush attacking Iraq based on a lie, the next Republican president, Donald Trump, has threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea. Add to that the Republicans’ denial of global warming, pulling us out of the Paris Agreement, and their determination to take away health care from millions, I am […]
The United States and its allies will never kill “the last terrorist.” Middle Eastern terrorists will continue to attack us and our allies, as long as we have a military presence in the Middle East. If you doubt that statement, look up how many times ISIS, Al-Qaeda, or other such groups have attacked Costa Rica […]
Gun deaths, police violence, and global warming are epidemics, solvable with commitment, ingenuity, and cooperation. Unfortunately, as long as Republicans stand in the way, solutions to those problems will remain out of America’s grasp. With that in mind, I’d like to ask Republicans, “What will it take?” From 2000 to 2015, the equivalent to one-half […]
Now that Donald Trump has picked Jim Bridenstine (a global warming denier with no science experience) to head NASA, he must be consistent and pick Thomas Röhler (the Olympic gold medalist javelin thrower) to be the White House proctologist.
Obviously the presidenting lessons Obama gave Little Trumpy didn’t take. So now it’s time for an intervention. All of the living presidents need to show up at the White House, have a sit down with the little guy, and tell him that big boy presidents don’t threaten with nukes.
I’m skeptical of any religion that proclaims humans are made in God’s image. Surely, if there is a god, she wouldn’t have copied her unnecessary appendix, disease-prone internal organs, or that Tommy John thingy that inevitably tears after a pitcher signs a multi-million dollar contract. And imagine how disappointing heaven would be if God’s closest […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2280: Once again the Republican Jesus has taken over my photo of the day: “Hey suckers . . . I mean God-fearing patriotic gun-loving conservatives! Our great white leader, Donald Trump, needs your help. Because some libtards couldn’t handle the fact that many Nazis and white supremacists are ‘very fine […]
Barack Obama wouldn’t say “Radical Islamic Terrorist,” for fear of offending 1.6 billion innocent people. Donald Trump won’t say “White Supremacist Terrorist,” for fear of offending a huge chunk of his voter base. See? Democrats and Republicans aren’t all that different from each other.
“I would recommend you take a good look in the mirror & remember it was White Americans who put you in the presidency, not radical leftists.” —David Duke, responding to Donald Trump’s call for unity Hmmm . . . While I don’t think standing up for civil rights, health care for all, and protecting the […]
Like pizza and beer, sometimes quotes are better together: “Get even with people. If they screw you, screw them back 10 times as hard. I really believe that.” —Donald Trump “I’ve seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are. It reveals who you are.” —Michelle Obama
Marty’s photo of the day #2241: “Now that Donald Trump has tweeted, ‘Putin & I discussed forming an impenetrable Cyber Security unit so that election hacking, & many other negative things, will be guarded,’ can we all now agree that calling the man a ‘bird brain’ is a horrible insult to creatures like myself? Now […]
The media made a big deal about Donald Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin lasting for 2 hours and 16 minutes, despite being scheduled for only 35 minutes. We may never know what happened behind closed doors. That’s bad. Conversely, no one can prove me wrong, when I guess what happened: Trump: “My handlers say I […]
A cult is a group of people that shuts out conflicting information and rejects facts in favor of an alternative reality. It’s time to call today’s Republican Party what it is: a cult. The Republican Party hasn’t always been a cult, but you can trace its conversion to one to the late 1980s and the […]
If Donald Trump thinks he can stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and not lose any voters, did the cops tell him which black man to shoot?
