His tenure as climate envoy as been an absolute disaster, as he actively helped turn the UN Climate Summit into a trade fair for fossil fuels and nuclear power.

Once war fever sets in, you can forget allegiance to Constitutional rights. Seems like it works like that way on a bipartisan basis much of the time.

Rep. Pelosi makes the appalling, anti-American suggestion that people who don’t want genocide in Gaza be investigated by the FBI.

If you don’t respect our Constitution, august ex-Speaker– then STFU.

P.S. I’m nice. I don’t totally like the way that sounds. And I respect my elders. How about: “then sit down and keep quiet”?

Why doesn’t Biden understand that Netanyhau and his right-wing allies want him to fail and want Trump back in office? Trump is stupid and easier to manipulate. He’s also anti-Semitic but Netanyahu doesn’t seem to care about that.

The United States of America is not a protectorate of Benjamin Netanyahu.  He  doesn’t say  NO to us. We must say NO to him. Netanyahu’s policies are disaster for Israel, for Gaza, for the Middle East, for the world. Biden seems to actually be willing to risk re-election in order to follow Netanyhau into the abyss.

Once again, it’s a question of Bernie saving establishment Democrats from themselves, as well as attempting here to staunch genocide and stem an endless cycle of violence.

In a sane society devoted to protecting its own survival, Dimon would be a pariah.

Dimon plies the obsolete business model promoted by Reagan for corporate governance: pillage our society, our environment for short-term financial gain for a few. The future be damned. Public interest be damned.

Now Dimon has made it explicit: democracy can go by the wayside, he is only interested in extracting every last penny out  of our economy that he can.

What the moron doesn’t understand is that no matter how prostrate he is before Trump, Trump will shut him down if he doesn’t turn over as much corporate profit as Tump thinks he is entitled to. In lieiu of the income tax from which Dimon believes he should be exempt, Trump will conduct Straight Up Shake Downs.

Albert Krupp went on trial post-WW II, and I believe Dimon’s insistence on climate-wrecking investment could put him in the dock some day as well. And that’s without even factoring in his evident willingness to become a fascist collaborator should Trump get another term.

Let’s take a step back, Mr. Dimon, let’s be honest–you are a sociopath.

Nothing whatsoever constructive to contribute to the conversation.

Dimon disgraced himself with a lie-packed encomium to Trump at Davos. It’s incredible that anyone pays attention to the self-serving drivel spouted by this man, who has contributed more than just about anyone to the climate apocalypse.

The minute Trump called out Dimon for supporting Haley, Dimon started to cower. Oh, the integrity. The courage. The leadership.

Robert Reich writes at Substack: “At a time in American history when the most influential leaders of America need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, for democracy, for decency, and against Donald Trump, Dimon is leading the charge in the opposite direction.”

Now it’s sniveling fascist De Santis, a Trump wannabee without the gift for grotesque, barnyard theatrics that the orange one commands.

Forgiveness is up to your personal credo, but we must never forget.

for her filthy, deliberate defamation, claiming that Carroll is lying about Trump’s sexual assault.

To save our country, the full weight of the law must be brought down on MAGA.

Danny Kessler just encapsulated MAGA for me.

The January-February issue of Mother Jones is dedicated to a many-faceted examination of “how American oligarchy operates, and the toll it takes on everyone else.”
