Kagro in the Morning - August 25, 2025

David Waldman is older than he used to be! By an entire year somehow! Congratulations! Also… Armando!  Greg Dworkin is completely different of course, and so is his Raft O’ Stories™, although they could all be a distraction from the real story.

The Zohran Mamdanimentum keeps growing, because it’s fun and Zohran is having fun and New Yorkers are a fun-loving bunch. Similarly, Gavin Newsomentum is building, even though there are Dems out there whose anxiety builds when they see too much fun going on and would like to remind you here in August 2025 that you don’t “have to” vote for Gavin in November 2028 if you don’t want to. Expect Trump to drop the word “CUCK” into his posts soon in order to get ahead of Newsom comparisons.

Or Trump could just have Gavin arrested. Time for some legal problems for Chris Christie. Time for some legal problems for every federal judge in Maryland. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh note that none of these people are either of them.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia could inspire this administration to reinstitute crucifixion. Let’s pour one out for two Fulton County Dems, Dana Barrett and Mo Ivory, protectors of democracy and presently unincarcerated.

Trump will obviously send troops into Chicago. Not because he needs to, but because he wants to. Cheating is so fun that it might not matter if it actually works.

Soon we will all have something to cry about. US consumers with prime credit are starting to fall behind in their payments. Millions are being pushed off of Medicaid and Obamacare, no matter what they are being told now. And COVID isn’t going away, but the vaccine is.

Years of effort have finally paid off. Nancy Mace has finally worn out her welcome.
