The Executioners

San Francisco Chronicle

Rejoice America – the Executioners have arrived. You can tell from their smug expressions that their fun has only just begun. You can tell from their colorful attire what to expect for the next four years – if you live through those long and painful years (after all, Daddy is home which means the switch for all you disobedient children.) And on this happy day, to show their compassion, one thousand federal workers were fired. Seniors lost the ability to negotiate lower drug prices.

And this the only the beginning! Rejoice … there’s plenty more to come!

I’m okay. Really I am. My heart breaks for those who tried to warn us.

  1. The new AXIS powers.

    Our salvation may be limited to either alien invasion or AI Overlord. Neither of which is even remotely possible. Time to practice your salutes and shine up your jackboots.

      1. Absolutely right but the people who should have stopped him were too afraid of retribution when they should have been afraid for their own souls. Or for the many people who would be hurt. Or for what would happen to the rule of law and order.

  2. Terrifying, frustrating, heartbreaking…I could go on, but you get the idea. Today I had to tell my 92-year-old mother that her $35 a month insulin would be going up to its regular (outrageous) price of over $600 a month. Add that to her Eliquis which is over $700 a month. She does have drug coverage but will still be paying 25% of the costs after meeting her deductible. It is criminal. So is our new administration.

      1. Your post title is very appropriate, isn’t it? Mom can afford the medications but so many people, especially seniors, can’t. They are the human face of T’s cruelty.

    1. I think that’s how many of us feel. I hope the MAGA folks are happy with their discussion however when things start to go sour, which they will soon, they’ll probably still blame anyone else but themselves.

    1. Why not just watch the news! I heard this morning that our president has announced he’s sending the military to California to stop all the rivers from running into the ocean so we have enough water. Such a genius.

      1. True. I don’t watch news, I only read a couple of magazines, two French, and I’ve just re-suscribed to The New Yorker.
        What do you expect of a 🎃?
        Next thing he’ll do, he’s gonna part the waters like Moses:
