If I was in her shoes, I would possibly be VERY CONFLICTED. A good thing that Swamp Thing has alienated just everyone EXCEPT his winged MAGA monkeys. He nicked 'em from the Wicked Witch. Boy was she pissed.

Yes, it is a conundrum for her, however, she authored Too Much Is Never Enough.

She lived it, she knows.

Her hope is to stop hear about his lying, grufting, traitorous ass.

She needs a reprieve from his crimes & actual see his final comeuppance!

Indeed; she has been through a living hell that most of us could not even begin to deal with without becoming entitled zombies (eg his 2 sons... Ivanka lagging but not by much). She persevered and overcame and is now positively channeling that massive angst for the good of all and the communal benefit of democracy. A hero in my book. 💯🔝

She BELIEVES in a free, uncorrupted, unperverted, progressive country that will EARN the respect of its allies instead of bowing & kowtowing to authoritarians & terrorists like Uncle Donald & the cancerous GOP want.

I suspect that once he's convicted of any of his crimes, there will be a national block party with dancing in the street.

This is what Americans want, a fascist country because that is where we are headed.

NO, it isn't what Americans want, it's what the amurikkkan whytes + the refukkkanmagits want.

Trump advocated fear diversity and freedom.

The gosar, gatez, grassley, Hawley, Jordan, Greene, comers + their ilk, across Our Nation know that " payback is a bitch". The thing is that "KARMA is a BIGGER BITCH".... Got my Pizza & Champagne for Those Celebrations.... Gonna " party like it 1999", too. 🌋🎆🔥🌅

I wouldn't go as far as saying our justice system is corrupt because it implies nefarious undertakings, but it is an unjust system. As we are witnessing, he's being afforded unprecedented leniency because no other POTUS has ever had 91 criminal charges and all parties, except Jack Smith, are granting him privileges the rest of us would never be afforded. If I, or you, had stolen govt. documents and paraded them around for all to see, we would have been locked up and indicted on charges of treason. The unyielding ability of the msm, some citizens and ambitious political persons to call him a crook & a threat to natl. security/democracy has been our undoing since this mongrel (sorry Mary) came down that escalator on Jun 16, 2015.

They keep yelling "Nobody's above the Law", while coodling him, bcz " it's unprecedented". He is unprecedented, NO POTUS has ever done the criminal things he has done since driving into Manhattan, across the Triboro Bridge.It's not unprecedented to treat a criminal like a person who has ACTUALLY said "fk it " to our RULE OF LAWS; IS IT?

Roy Cohen was Consigliore of the Genovese Crime Family, Donald was mentored by him. Rudy took them down now he's being taken down.

Mary, your Dad was literally destroyed by his sperm donor & brother,bcz he had empathy, compassion & a sense of self. I wish he had, had some supporters in his striving to just be himself.

Please, see beyond the surface. The USA is committed to defending Israel's right to exist and prosper. Therin lies the conundrum: Biden and the WH team is aware of Netanyahu's motives, but must also honor our longstanding international agreements. Hold in your mind and heart that we are able to curtail the Netanyahu bombing horror without putting Israel at risk of more Hamas atrocities. My suggestion is that we insist on going right to Qatar and dealing with the billionaire leaders of Hamas living there while they direct their revenge carnage. Netanyahu DID order Hamas to be paid billions because he thought that would keep them under his "control."

Expand full comment

I can appreciate those feelings. That Mid-East never-ending horror story situation is any diplomat's worst nightmare - and our State Dept. is juggling a lot more issues and agendas than you or I are fully aware of. It is not so black and white as it would seem. Sadly, I fear it is going to end probably within 10 yrs in a cataclysmic nuclear event.

Expand full comment

Perish the thought!!! Anyone who has risen to national or international leadership is well aware that should they use nuclear weapons in a massive attack that they will kill not only their enemies but themselves as well. This is why the development of nuclear weapons is and must be controlled controlled by international agreements. There is no coming back from a nuclear Holocaust... Our planet would be obliterated.

Donald Trump knows NO boundaries. His manipulation of the Republican Party, the lies, the corruption.... well we all know (partly thanks to Mary!). No matter how evil this man is, and what he might do if president, we also have to keep remembering that it is the corruption of the Republican Party and its big monied backers (like Heritage Foundation, Project 2025, Lincoln Foundation) that allows him proceed, and has corrupted American democracy at the highest level. It's not just Donald who has to gain from him being president, and from stacking the courts and the federal government with "his" people. It is a carefully planned and executed procedure and some of the wealthiest people and companies AND Putin himself are behind this plan. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's factual. Google those foundations and see for yourself. Thank you, Mary, for what you do so bravely.

You are so correct. If the eunuch republicans had had the __s to convict him ONE of the times he was impeached, it would have been OVER. NO threat of his getting near the office of president again, and many of the criminals, the dregs of the Earth whom he pardoned the last minutes he was in office would still be in jail. AND BTW, has anyone investigated how much money he was paid for some of those pardons? I read in several places that they were being sold. Would anybody doubt that?

TWO MILLION a pardon. Guilliani & he split it.

Yet ANOTHER reason not to trust Republicans as far as I could THROW THEM - although I'm sure that there a few that aren't complete corrupt ignorant wastes of DNA.

I thought there were some that were normal Americans until I heard that all the Republicans voted to impeach Biden. Well, that's one way to take the light off of Donald.

Expand full comment

THAT is their motivation. As everything else they do, bogus, self-serving and a distraction from the real problems that desperately need attention.

Expand full comment

Yes, but where are they when the bad guys are spewing lies and destroying our systems? And frivolously trying to impeach Biden please the orange one, when there are REAL pressing issues to be addressed? They have abandoned the concept of governing this country properly and without prejudice. I could go on but it's exhausting.

Expand full comment

I read that it was $2 mil/pardon and they split it. WHATEVER it was, it stinks, is illegal and something has to be done about this! AND the bought & paid for bogus pardons should be reversed!! The criminals should be returned to jail to serve the terms they earned!

I'll take a prison term for TFG instead and continued trials and convictions while he's incarcerated, adding years more as he continues to lose, lose, and lose some more!

You’re right! I’ll correct my comment. Senioritis…

Jared & Rudy are said to have been selling them for the " Boss" at $2 million per pardon.

Investigate why Jared got that $ 2 Billion from MSB, that's a better movie than Hunter Biden's laptop.

If Donald sold or says he is selling the clothing off his back, yes, he would have sold pardons.

Wonder if Gingrich & friends factored in the massive chaos we' re experiencing and facing now.

Hmmm, guess the rest of us are just collateral damage, huh?

He should have been in prison decades ago.

There is sooo much proof that Trump is guilty!! Soo much that he should be in jail now, mostly for the safety of our country! He's blatantly doing it in front of us! It's insulting to those of us who are regular citizens, that he's boldly breaking the law, and the constitution, and he's not in jail yet!!

The straw that broke the camel's back, for me, was when he swindled the money from St. Jude's. One has to be an ultra - mega scumbag to steal from children with CANCER. & the GOP was probably ready to excuse their " Messiah ".

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I'm doing some kind of service I would like to be paid for it. His Heinous is famous for not paying people. So if he has all these enormous legal expenses and isn't paying them, why the hell would anyone represent him in the first place? Are they being paid by someone else? maybe Putin's dark money?

Expand full comment

That enters in I'm sure, and his groupies are contributing money they probably can't even afford, purportedly to pay his legal fees, tho' as Mary points out he's using it for whining, ( not sic), dining, and God knows what else. It was reported on the news today that 2 of his lawyers have been paid about $1 million. Despite seeming to be, well, not the best.

I heard that the money from the campaign is paying the attorneys. Is that even legal?
