The MAGA theater of the absurd, advancing the sirens of shrill, are pushed to the edges of fantasy to extract desperate oxygen to counter the tsunami of anger America is demonstrating.
The Trump regime not only reeks of moral turpitude, but its entire intellectual expertise is formulated within the tiny, deluded, demented mind of Trump.
The amassed incompetence of tariffs, diplomatic idiocy, and domestic tyranny has reduced this presidency to life support as the house of cards collapses.
Mary, I admire your work so much! Your ability to spin a phrase and communicate the absurdity and cruelty of the times is simply brilliant and superior in every sense. Although evocative of Mark Twain and a less cynical but still accountability demanding HL Mencken, you are one of a kind! I try my best but my meager efforts seem pretty deficient by comparison. So grateful for your accessible brilliance! Hope you can wake some folks up. Thank you!
YES! I was there , in San Diego, for that wonderful No King's Day event, sitting proudly in my roller walker , No King's shirt, yellow kerchief tied around my straw hat, sign that read "Pissed Off Gramma" and a voice so loud I didn't need a megaphone to be heard. It was glorious, but not so glorious, was the freeway signs on the way home that read, "Live ammunition over Interstate 5" ! WTF! This man is a ludicrous, cruel, evil human being who really wouldn't blink an eye if someone was hit by that ammunition or a fire started. If anything, it renewed our energy to fight long and often in this war he has inflicted upon us. Your summation of the Day's activities is spot on, as usual. Thanks, Mary!
The man who Trump is floating to run against Massie is Ed Gallrein. Ed ran for state office and lost to a cowboy hat wearing MAGA guy named Aaron Reed, who was also approached by Trump reps to run against Massie too. Aaron said he had to pray on it to see if God wanted him to take Trump up on the offer. I don't know what God told him, but suddenly Ed Gallrein is in the picture. Gallrein is GOP, but as far as I know, not quite MAGA, and not the type of guy that I would expect to go for this...this being a stooge for Trump. But you never know. Ed has a military background and is the head of a family that owns produce farms that are quite popular to visit. If he says yes to this, he'll confront a solid Massie structure that I think will not yield.
I love your writing; I’d also love to see a list of sources at the end, a la Heather Cox Richardson. For example, where did the tally of 7 million protesters come from? Citations would make your Substack more powerful.
Thank you, Mary Geddry!

Up 101 from you, in Newport, someone counted 2,600 people lining the highway. Our population is only 10,000!

Shared this with family and friends who showed up yesterday with signs and energy. You capture the reality of now better than anyone!
