Thursday Cartoons: King Me

Morning. So I have a few things for you to follow…

Yesterday Trump tweeted this:

Then the actual White House tweeted this:

And if that wasn’t shitty enough…this happened:

It is disgraceful. But I truly think nothing is going to happen.

All these people commenting on the various news outlets…saying, “Reagan is rolling in his grave.” And how they can’t believe the Republicans are so quiet. Or why aren’t even the Trump supporters making complaints…(This hand wringing mostly over the fact that Trump has sided with Putin/Russia regarding Ukraine.) I have been yelling at the TV…they don’t care! The politicians and the Trumpets don’t care!

These assholes haven’t cared for a while. And I don’t think Trump followers will be concerned about anything affecting them, because it is a cult and they think he is their savior. So to them …King has double meaning.

In other news:

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

In their zeal to cut media contracts, DOGE appears to have cancelled the Securities and Exchange Commission's contract with Westlaw (which is owned by Reuters' parent company). Total savings: $0.
