    So today is a good moment to pause and remind yourselves: You are not the crazy ones for remembering what actually happened. And it is up to us to keep the historical record intact.

    Take a moment to imagine the sniggering adolescent minds who thought that this was a good idea.

    No one thought to say, “Maybe we shouldn’t actually use the official White House account to insult the Church… and amplify the juvenile narcissism of the president.”

    So, yes, the market meltdown was scary, but what we are left with is even scarier: A world dangling at the whim of a capricious, economically illiterate, megalomaniac.

    What can we do? Where is the pushback?

    Well, ICYMI, here is what it looks like.

    So I thought I would do something I rarely (if ever) do… share the whole damn thing. No snark. No spin. Just the whole speech.

    Underappreciated angle to the appointments of Patel, Gaetz, Bondi, et al.

    Massive Fuq U to institutions …

    But also a huge FU to the Supreme Court, because Trump doesn’t think they will be a check on his campaign of lawless retribution.

    Nice work, John Roberts.

    It’s not easy these days to single out the worst of the worst appointments, but certainly the elevation of the thuggish Emil Bove to the federal appellate bench has to rank right up there. Other churls and chodes will come and go, but federal judges are forever.

    America did not storm the beaches at Normandy alone on June 6, 1944.

    We had allies who fought with us.

    Allies from Britain, Canada, Australia, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, Greece, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), and Poland.

    Nota bene: Elon Musk has committed 2 cardinal sins in Trump world. He upstaged him; and is now responsible for an embarrassing defeat. (and Trump must absolutely hate the whole President Musk thing.)

    On Wednesday night, the South Parkers delivered a stunningly graphic middle finger both to their craven corporate overlords and to the thinnest-skinned short-fingered vulgarian who ever occupied the Oval Office.

    A reminder: For all his bravado, and testosterone-themed bluster, Donald Trump remains, at his core, a thin-skinned man-child unable to handle even the mildest of criticisms.

    As an exercise, try to imagine Ron Johnson being wrestled to the ground in Wisconsin; or Tommy Tuberville in Alabama; or Lindsey Graham in South Carolina. Yeah, neither can I.

    It was the blowout Republicans feared, and Democrats desperately needed. A coast-to-coast repudiation of Donald Trump and all his works.
