Things Now Okay To Do

January 22, 2025January 22, 2025

It’s now okay to threaten, attack, and bludgeon law enforcement officers — so long as it’s done on behalf of Donald Trump.  If for any other reason, there will be hell to pay.

It’s okay to commit seditious conspiracy, for which Proud Boys chairman Enrique Tarrio was sentenced by a Trump-appointed judge to 22 years in prison, and Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes, by an Obama-appointed judge, to 18 . . . so long as your treason was on behalf of Donald Trump.  They’re now back out on the street.

It’s okay to steal classified documents from the government . . .

. . . okay to lie to the FBI about having them . . .

. . . okay to move them around to keep the FBI from finding them . . .

. . . but only if you’re Trump.

This is how it works in Putin’s Russia; and now, tragically, here.



Conservative George Will reviews Monday’s inaugural address — “memorable for its staggering inappropriateness.”

(Of the national “energy emergency” Trump declared, he notes that, adjusted for inflation, gas cost less Monday than it did 70 years ago, in 1955.)



[Correction:  The tax cuts for the rich expire at the end of this year, not in 2027 as initially posted yesterday.]

Quote of the Day

"You see those charts that say if you put away $500 a year starting at age 20, by the time you're 50 you'd have a gazillion dollars. It just makes you ill that you didn't do it. You almost want to grab young people and shake 'em and say, 'Please don't make the same mistake I did. Please.'"
