The Smoking Duck

Fort Sumter. Pearl Harbor. The World Trade Center. The Capitol. #NeverForgetJanuary6 We must act accordingly with full awareness of what is at stake. Our democracy depends on it.

Deeply disturbing rhetoric is spreading from influential MAGA figures (including the President of the United States and the owner of this website). They have no idea who the shooter is, and many of these same people mocked Democrats when they were victims of political violence in the past. In moments like this, we should be lowering the temperature and finding our shared humanity — not fueling more hatred and violence.

Charlie Kirk said black people were better off in slavery and subjugation before the 1940’s. “It was bad & it was evil but they committed less crimes” So I dnt wanna hear yall tears frfr

So much disinformation on this site tonight in the wake of the horrific Kirk murder, with conservatives cynically suggesting that all of the political violence in this country comes from the left. In fact it’s the opposite. Here are the facts for those with short memories: The man who targeted and killed Democratic state Rep Melissa Hortman was a Trump supporter. The man who targeted the home of Dem Governor Josh Shapiro was a Trump supporter. The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6th were Trump supporters. The man who targeted and killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas was a Trump supporter. The man who tried to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband was a Trump supporter. The men who were convicted trying to kidnap Dem Governor Gretchen Whitmer were Trump supporters. The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Obama and Biden was a Trump supporter. There is no equivalent or even similar list of Obama or Biden supporters who have carried out similar murders, attempted murders, or violent attacks.

This whole sequence is incredible 😂 x.com/HoHighlights/s…

News flash -- manufacturing WAS coming back in America. Under Joe Biden. Trump has NO IDEA what he's doing.

Dave Chappelle in 2017 talking about Trump bringing Chinese jobs back to America LOL

The economy was in absolute shambles in January 2021. A fucking dumpster fire.

Murphy: "The vast majority of Republicans, their number one priority is Trump seizing power, and the Trump family and the MAGA universe holding power forever ... with the exception of maybe 20 Republicans in the Senate, the GOP inside Congress is done with democracy."

It took under 100 days for "I'll lower prices on day one" to become "who needs money or a 401k when your heart is full of love for Dear Leader Trump"

It’s all projection. Trump left the economy in the ditch post Covid, in a much worse economic state than our peers; Biden bequeathed to Trump the strongest economy in the western world with the best post Covid recovery. How much these people lie, & gaslight, they have no shame.

“Sixteen Nobel economists are saying that his plan would increase inflation and invite a recession by the middle of next year.”

Tonight, Democrats forced a vote on a simple amendment. To remove new tariffs that are increasing the cost of groceries, gas and housing. Republicans rejected it.

Haven’t seen an economic crash this bad since the last time Trump was in office.

Who did this?:

Imagine the arrogance of thinking: screw ALL the economists, screw everything we know from history, screw our allies, screw American workers and farmers, screw my own voters who just wanted costs to go down…I’m going to take down the GLOBAL economy. Because I can. That’s a special kind of narcissist.

Trump is driving the world to a global depression -and destruction of all US influence - using powers delegated to him by Congress. Congress could recall those powers and save everyone from the disaster Trump is determined to inflict

HAPPY LIBERATION DAY! Isn’t it great to be liberated of all of your hard work and all of your savings?

They can't spin this away. The Trump administration contacted air traffic controllers, offering buyouts to leave their jobs. It's a very easily proven fact.

Imagine defending prices going up after bitching about it for 4 years..🤣
