Side note, trumps claim of $350 b to Ukraine is actually $66.5 b and $31.7 b of antigue weaponry

The ghost cartoonist serves up another nothing burger.

Still no comments from magats about how wonderful it is that Their Messiah pardoned 1589 violent felons and the drug kingpin who brought us fentanyl . I guess his LIEs about fentanyl coming in from Canada totally makes up for it.

And no comments about the wonderful cabinet members, especially RFKja. His call for ‘action’ consists of cod liver oil and ambulance rides. How soon before “I don’t take responsibility for ANY of it!”?

And still nothing about how wonderful the tariffs are, especially the careful planning and execution on their implementation. Imagine how a withdrawal of troops from a foreign country would go with The Messiah running it.

Just a few weeks before the 2024 presidential election in the United States, the Economist explained why the country’s economy was the “envy of the world,” with low unemployment, inflation under control, and a growth rate unmatched by any advanced economy.

Fast-forward a few months, and the U.S. economy is not the envy any anymore. There are few signs of optimism among the traditional economic indicators, from capital markets to consumer confidence. trump has, as promised, brought an economic revolution to the United States—just not in a good way. Just as he did in his disastrous first term he took a strong prosperous economy and crashed it.

Maybe not love, but we need you.

The only thing that will save us is IMPEACHMENT MAN or BULLET MAN, or a massive heart attack from all those Big Macs and jumbo fries.

You’ve got that right Winslow.

Speaking of “Honesty and Consequences,” listen to the DMZ to catch the Dynamic Duo pat themselves on the back for Strawmen Arguments they “erected” in their small circle while they conveniently forget all the predictions they got loud wrong.

Is gas under $2/gal yet like Trump promised he would do before the election? This question has nothing to do with Biden and only with the actual words that Trump said when Trump made the promise.

It’s a yes or no question. I have to explain the type of question it is because some people don’t understand the word YET. And the only answer that is required to a yes or no question is “Yes” or “No.”

Let’s see who actually knows how to read.

Today’s Deering comic is quite good.

Everyday, I read about depressing reality of the world news. Today our president betrayed Ukraine. Just for once, I’d like to read Prickly City as an escape from troubles. Lighten up, guy.
