All Hat No Cattle: As wildfires rage, Trump lashes out with false claims about FEMA and California water policy

Fact check: As wildfires rage, Trump lashes out with false claims about FEMA and California water policy

Another natural disaster, another series of false claims from President-elect Donald Trump. For years, Trump has littered his statements on...

I’ve seen Trump attack Newsom, I’ve seen him spread disinformation, I’ve seen him blame Biden & I’ve seen lie about the state’s emergency response to the crisis, but has he extended any condolences? Has he expressed any worry or concern? Promised a helping hand?

Did I miss that? - JoJoFromJerz

The World Is A Safer Place Without Trump

Trump wants us talking about going to war with Panama, Denmark and Canada, instead of talking about how his nominees are rapists, alcoholics and Russian assets. - TeaPain

I Watched Most Of President Carter's Funeral, It Was A Lovely Tribute To A Lovely Man. The Song Imagine Was The Icing On The Cake.
The state funeral of former President Jimmy Carter was underway Thursday at Washington National Cathedral, where dignitaries including President Biden, former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama, and President-elect Donald Trump have gathered to pay their respects to the 39th president, who died on Dec. 29 at age 100.

I just received word from Meta that I should “please reconsider posting” a post praising Jimmy Carter because it was “similar to others that have been reported.” People, time’s up for Facebook. - Andy Borowitz

Not one world leader is afraid of donald trump. NOT ONE. He's a fat, f---ing joke to the entire WORLD!! - JBThinkin

Republican Shenanigans

Kurt Vonnegut said “We’ll go down in history as the first society that wouldn't save itself because it wasn't cost effective” and damn if that isn't exactly how this is all playing out. - DaveLeftyMA

My, My, My. Trump Gets Sentenced Tomorrow.

New York’s high court on Thursday declined to halt President-elect Trump’s sentencing on his hush money criminal conviction, which is scheduled for Friday morning.

In a terse note, the New York Court of Appeals' chief clerk notified Trump’s attorneys that Judge Jenny Rivera declined to sign an order stopping the sentencing from moving forward, as the president-elect appeals and claims he is immune and the prosecution must be dismissed.

Inspector General of DOJ, Loretta Lynch, talked to Bill Clinton on the tarmac at Phoenix Airport.

REPUBLICANS: "OMG! An outrageous conflict of interest! DOJ is looking into Hilary Clinton's emails!!!!!!"

Justices Samuel Alito calls Donald Trump who has/will have business before the Court.

[yawn]

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries tells journalists that they need to contact the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson to find out why a law requiring a plaque to be installed honoring the police officers who defended the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 has not been installed.

The Dumb Turks
The Young Turks’ Ana Kasparian shredded California Democrats over their handling of the wildfires ravaging the Los Angeles area this week, declaring that if “you want to radicalize people against the modern Democratic Party” you should “send them to LA.”

The largest wildfire in Texas history happened under Governor Greg Abbott.

Over a million acres burned.

Did MAGA call for him to resign?

No.

So sit TF down talking about Gavin Newsom. - Art Candee

Is it my imagination or is Elon starting to look more and more like the Donald? If he dyed his hair blonde and adopted that swoopy ducktail wave in the front, I think he'd have it.

This just announced: Trump WILL be sentenced tomorrow (9:30 am ET). SCOTUS denied the emergency plea to stop the sentencing process! Trump will not go to jail and he can go through a lengthy appeal, but he WILL BE a convicted felon when he takes the oath of office. This is both something to applaud, because a tiny bit of accountability is slapping the most slappable face on the planet, and a dark day in American history because we are going to let a convicted felon claim he will faithfully carry out the laws of the US!! I'm gonna be sick! 🤢 The 11th Circuit Court told Trump's toady (Judge Aileen Cannon) that she is the worst legal analyst and the Smith Special Prosecutor report will be released! I'm gonna be happy! 😃
