Sometimes, the ego gets in the way, and it shouldn't...

Pope Leo XIV has hit back at Donald Trump after the president’s savage social media tirade, in which he branded the American pontiff “weak” and “terrible”. Trump earlier blasted Leo for being “weak on crime” and “terrible for foreign policy” – before sharing a bizarre AI image depicting himself as Jesus.
Thing is, why is he even paying attention to shit like that? It's not like he's a devout Catholic or anything. The man just cannot take any form of disparagement, and that - at times - gets in his way. Don't get me wrong here. Policy wise the guy's hitting home runs all over the place. Maybe he could learn to stop with the tweets and the slap-backs just for a little while. Juss' sayin'...

I think I've reached that point in my life - and especially the way the world is going these days - 
where I need a word MUCH stronger than just 'fuck'. Juss' sayin'...

The scandal surrounding Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) is rapidly ballooning and could jolt a surge of expulsion votes for at least three of his House colleagues as soon as the chamber returns from recess next week.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) announced plans to force a vote next week to expel Swalwell, who is facing allegations of sexual assault and sexual harassment, which he denies, but he has dropped out of the race for California Governor because of the accusations.

In an article published on this date in 1963 in the Saturday Evening Post, Kennedy was quoted saying the world would be worse off if China dominated the communist movement instead of Russia. China, he said, believed “in war as the means of bringing about the communist world.” The stalemate and resolution of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis had shown that Khrushchev, the Soviet leader, would back away from war when confronted by a clear challenge.

I think this is what that bullshit they're talking about about men today looking for what they refer to as 'TradWives'. C'mon with this nonsense already. Don't they have something better to talk about?
And, for that matter, don't I...

President Donald Trump’s proposal for a complete blockade of Iran has so far failed to attract support from other countries, despite his earlier claims that allies would join the effort.
The blockade announcement came after direct negotiations between U.S. and Iranian officials over the weekend ended without a breakthrough.
The Trump administration says the move is intended to increase pressure on Tehran and force renewed negotiations over Iran’s nuclear ambitions and regional activities.

  2. Someone should take Trump's phone away between 10Pm and 7AM. That is when his worse posts are made....

  3. You left out Baskerville Holmes, Memphis State Basketball, 1980s I believe. Not raunchy, just funny.

  4. "How many divisions does the Pope have?"
    Still, alienating his Christian base by calling himself JEE-suss-a is a pretty poor idea.

  5. I stay in my lane by not criticizing the Catholic Church or the Pope, that's their issue. The Pope should stay in his lane as well - like maybe worry about Christian persecution or homosexuals in the priesthood?

  6. This sounds vaguely familiar.... Swap Johnson for Trump, 1968 for now & a bombing halt over North Vietnam for the one now over Iran. Exchange blocking the harbor at Haiphong for blocking Iran's ports.... Paris for Islamabad.... I'm no historian but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express. Have these people never read a history book?

  7. The way Trump was persecuted for the past 12+ years I have no problem with him fighting back. If only those who tried to frame him were punished maybe he'd have a different attitude.

    1. Trump trolls the ayatollah for a comment that he supposedly was alive to say and people self-wedge their shorts. Unbelievable.

  9. Why is that Hawaiian judge and boas berg and that idiot who said mar-a-lago is only worth $80 Million still on the bench? C'mon man! And FUCK is not a strong enough word for this.

  10. "Sometimes, the ego gets in the way, and it shouldn't..."
    It is almost as if you are surprised his ego gets in the way.
    In 2026, over 10 years AFTER trump jumped into the political arena I don't understand anyone getting somewhat surprised that that Trump's ego forces him to do something counterproductive.
