Spray Tan Convicted Felon Dementia Donnie

 

It’s so pathetic the way he just sprays on all the orange. Like doesn’t he realize how bad it makes him look?

It looks bad, but I think he prefers it to how old he would look without it, and he may even be right!

Old people are meant to look old. This just reeks of insecurity.

Everything he does reeks of insecurity. The problem is that where most insecure people eventually fade into oblivion, this choad has had the resources to remain relevant his entire life. Come on cholesterol…. Please be the boogeyman we were led to believe that you are!

Looks like someone had their makeup gun set to whore again.

Declining Dementia Don part 2

 Aging, Slurring Trump ‘Lives in Fear’ of Dad’s Dementia

Donald Trump “lives in fear” of suffering the same cognitive decline his father did, according to a brutal assessment by an MSNBC guest.

The political analyst, speaking on the second installment of the show after its debut on Saturday, said the president’s motivation has always been either “self-aggrandizement” or “self-preservation.”

However, the 78-year-old’s vitality has visibly waned and he is acutely aware of his mortality, the panelist added. “As I was watching that clip, you know, one of the things that really struck me is, Donald Trump has aged,” he said.

He’s had it for a while. It’s gradual and not an instant switch. It’s hard to tell because of his megalomania, but his cognitive function and seeking revenge for petty/imagined slights have gotten worse. The weird swaying and singing with the crowd. It reminds me of both my uncle and grandfather who died with dementia. Even his tweets remind me of the structure and content of my uncles anti-Obama Facebook posting from the early 2010s.

You can see the decline in speech since 2016. Now he always says “uhhhhhhhhh” between words a lot more.

He also is conscience enough about it to dial up the bullshit to hide it.

You should read the transcript of his Time Magazine interview from last week. When you read his words, they 10x more batshit than listening when your brain kind of fills in what you think he is trying to say. 

He isn’t rehearsing. He clearly has it - look how he is behaving.

He wants to reopen Alcatraz. That makes absolutely no sense at all.

Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV

Declining Dementia Don

He's shown everyone who he is countless times. The people are just stupid.

This is why having a “business man” doesn’t work as a president. He doesn’t know (or understand) the law and only cares about enriching himself.

Trump: Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV. Still got it, Donnie.

Here's the thing. Trump thinks there is absolutely nothing wrong with lying. Period. He has no sense of altruism what-so-ever. In fact, he believes lying is a crucial part of success in life and business. In his warped philosophy, if lying gets you what you want, then that makes it ethical.

So, when he took that oath of office and stated publicly "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." it is meaningless because lying is not illegal.

In other words, now in his mind he can rationalize his actions with "pay no attention to that oath, I was lying, but lying is not illegal."

Next comes the rationalizations for the base, it says "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution..." and if he keeps the document in a sealed case, guarded by armed guards, he is complying with the oath of office by preserving, protecting, and defending the papers, while completely ignoring their intent.

Yes, he's that crass and petty to think that the words he said are up for debate as to meaning, after all, redefinition of words and linguistic manipulation are key Republican characteristics, and that they can mean whatever he says they mean because, after all, he is the President and the President has unlimited power.

Same logic that he will use to pre-emptively pardon himself before he leaves office.

That people put up with this nonsense is pretty damn indicative of what social media has done to the mind of many, many Americans.

 

Health care for all

 

Where does the additional 18 trillion go?

The world may never know.

(We know.)

If there is a "middle man" he is going to get its cut. 

They mean because the right people won't be making money off of it.

We keep it because it makes more money for the right people (i.e. the already filthy rich).

It could be paid for without doing anything revolutionary!

The cost we pay out of our paychecks could be rationalized to a tax. And it would probably go down for many people

Then, the amount employers pay to the insurance company they use would instead be a tax to the universal Healthcare system! The only change is that the tax would have to account for revenue and employee amount (counting unpaid interns and part time) so that companies like Walmart can't get away with paying less because they fuck over employees. So there would be a calculation for both revenue and employees and whichever is HIGHER the company pays

Then, throw in some meaningful price regulations on big pharma and the system is paid for

Of all the struggles to fix in the US universal Healthcare is probably the most straightforward to solve because the money already exists! Hardly 

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

The math is disturbing on a couple of levels here. 5-6 people have to share a single pill so they all can die. Heaven’s Gate and Jonestown didn’t get that kind of efficiency.

MAGA does everything bigger and better than you've ever seen, more than you can even imagine.

Math, schmath. First DOGE can't come up with "correct" numbers, now the AG. Just keep repeating them, and the MAGATS will believe.

Is this the same math that Trump used so he knew only 2 people would get Covid-19 in the US and no one would die here from the same? Asking for a recently fired CDC scientist.

COVID ended by the end of summer 2020, don’t you remember?

It wasnt a big deal, but was also a weapon made by china(and to spare the Jews according to current HHS secretary RFK Jr). Plus the vaccine is a hoax but also Trump made it happen so quickly with operation Warp-speed, so where’s their thank you?

he latest number from the cabinet is actually 258 Million Lives, tomorrow they will probably say it’s 750 Millions…

 

DUI Hire Former Fox host White Supremacy Sec Def Hegseth keeps digging deeper hole

Pete Hegseth had an unsecured internet line set up in his office to connect to Signal, AP sources say 

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer, two people familiar with the line told The Associated Press.

The existence of the unsecured internet connection is the latest revelation about Hegseth’s use of the unclassified app and raises the possibility that sensitive defense information could have been put at risk of potential hacking or surveillance.

Known as a “dirty” internet line by the IT industry, it connects directly to the public internet where the user’s information and the websites accessed do not have the same security filters or protocols that the Pentagon’s secured connections maintain.

He has also been having a mental breakdown on television, he needs to be removed from his position as soon as possible. He is a danger to the safety of the United States. 

So he's just trying to hide some illegal shit at this point.

But, Hillary’s emails..

He drunk and on grinder. In his office

Dude’s gonna have that makeup studio installed and then we’ll hear about the hidden wire in the vanity that goes straight to the Kremlin.

Hegseth firing his buddies that knew where all the bodies were buried tells you he's not cut out for this level of grift

Does he have ANY secure communications at this point? Might as well just twitch stream everything?

Following in the footsteps of Mike Flynn. Before Obama fired him as DIA he has a private Internet setup in the Pentagon. You may remember Mike as the National Security Advisor with the shortest tenure in history, having had surreptitious relations with Russian spymaster Sergey Kislyak.

ISNT THIS LITERALLY WHAT THEY WANTED HILARY JAILED FOR, BUT WORSE?! A big FU who propelled us into this hellscape timeline over her nothingburger emails

Hegseth told U.S. cyber defense to stand down on Russian hacking. They dismantled the task force investigating foreign cyberattacks. They killed the board that reviewed major breaches. They cut election security units at CISA and the FBI, all while Russia and China are hacking the shit out of us daily. 

Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump backed down and humiliated

 Lawrence O'Donnell Reveals Moment Trump Became A 'Humiliated Clown' On Live TV

The Wall Street Journal fired off an editorial calling Trump’s tariffs “the biggest economic policy mistake in decades,” and said Trump’s policies followed by his threat against Powell triggered a financial “meltdown.”

So on Tuesday, Trump did some damage control.

“I have no intention of firing him,” Trump said while taking questions from reporters during a televised appearance where he also blamed the media.

The self-proclaimed world's greatest deal maker can't even negotiate a shallow ramp.

Now we have the worst of both worlds. Prices will go up because of the tariffs, and they will stay up because no sane US company will risk the money it takes to build new factories when Trump changes his mind more often than he changes his underwear.

I mean, it's like every live TV appearance for the past 10 years. He says so much stupid insane stuff. Everything is a clownshow, he made fun of a disabled reporter to him ranting about Arnold Palmers penis.  Let's not forget the insane crap he said during live covid briefings. 

It's to be honest unbelievable how easily he buckles under pressure, admitting he can't fire the Fed Chair, and the Wall Street Journal's admission that Trump's tariffs were the biggest economic policy mistake in decades just shows the extent of the damage he's inflicted, especially because he's been trying to blame everyone else for his failures.

Terrified Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump backed down

 Terrified Trump Flees Tariffs War After CEOs’ ‘Empty Shelves’ Warning

He told reporters on Tuesday he didn’t plan to play hardball with China, and that he was confident the two countries could strike a deal that would bring the tariffs well below their current levels.

“145 percent is very high and it won’t be that high,” he said, according to CNN. “It won’t be anywhere near that high. It will come down substantially, but it won’t be zero.”

Food riots usually spell the end of dictatorships because an empty stomach motivates extreme actions no matter the political persuasion.

It's truly shocking that CEOs, like those of Walmart, Target, and Home Depot, had to directly warn Trump about the possibility of empty shelves, apparently, they predicted this could happen within just two weeks, a terrifying prospect indeed.

Peter Navarro disputed them though and Trump trust Peter more then all of them.

It’s so bad Bessent and the CEOs have to wait until Peter’s elsewhere to teach Trump about how economics actually works. 

The people that support Trump don’t realize that the damage has already been done. Even if he pulls back on these tariffs, our trading partners are trying to find other avenues as we speak. Things are gonna go up, no matter what. Things are gonna get harder for the American people Because Trump and his economic team don’t understand basic economics. And there’s been many other economist saying the exact same thing. We’re in for a long haul here. That doesn’t even touch the breaking down of the constitution and disregarding basic human rights and due process. What a disaster

Convicted Felon Trump Freed Felon Jonathan Braun sent back to jail

 

Another classy citizen pardoned by Trump doing stand-up things.

Jonathan Braun has repeatedly been in legal trouble since President Trump commuted his federal prison sentence more than four years ago as part of a rushed, last-minute process of granting clemency to allies and well-connected special pleaders before leaving office.

On Saturday, Mr. Braun, a major player in the predatory lending business, was arrested on Long Island on charges of assaulting an acquaintance and his 3-year-old child, according to court documents. It was the fourth time he has been arrested since Mr. Trump freed him.

Mr. Braun punched the man in the face and then shoved the child to the ground, “causing a red mark on his back and substantial pain” to the child’s back, the documents said. Mr. Braun was charged with assault, endangering the welfare of a child and injuring a child under the age of 7.

In his final hours in office in early 2021, Mr. Trump commuted Mr. Braun’s 10-year sentence for running a marijuana smuggling ring. Mr. Braun’s family used a connection to Charles Kushner, the father of Jared Kushner, Mr. Trump’s son-in-law who served as a senior White House adviser, to try to get the matter before Mr. Trump. Jared Kushner’s White House office drafted the language used to announce commutations for Mr. Braun and others.

Since then, Mr. Braun returned to predatory lending only to be banned from operating in that business by a New York State judge and a federal judge for engaging in deceptive practices. And he has been accused of a number of crimes: punching his wife and father-in-law in the head; grabbing a nanny’s breast while touching himself; trying to assault a female nurse with poles used to hold intravenous bags; and threatening a synagogue congregant who asked him to be quiet during services.

“Do you know who I am or what I can do to you?” Mr. Braun told the congregant, according to an affidavit the man signed.

Mr. Braun’s conduct has focused attention on how Mr. Trump has used his clemency powers in both his first and second terms to benefit people whose cases have often come to him apparently with little vetting. At least seven recipients of clemency from Mr. Trump during his first term have been charged with new crimes since then.

In his second term, Mr. Trump has dismissed the U.S. pardon attorney in the Justice Department and consolidated review of pardon applications in the White House, setting off a scramble from lawyers and lobbyists with connections to the administration to get the clemency applications of clients in front of Mr. Trump and his aides.

*Mr. Braun has a long history of violence dating to when he was a drug dealer and worked as a predatory lender to small businesses. He beat an underling with a belt and used threats of violence against debtors, according to court documents, including a rabbi whom he told: “I am going to make you bleed.”*

Petty Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump wants to help Russians soldiers

 

Everything he does makes perfect sense once you accept that he’s a Russian asset destroying the country for Putin.

Donald Trump is a Russian asset, Elon Musk is a hostile foreign power trying to destroy worker and consumer protections, and the GQP is a complicit terrorist organization.

Let's see how MAGA will spin this. Will it be "He didn't mean it like that", "He didn't say that"(despite evidence to the contrary) or just swearing fealty to Putin?

Petty Convicted Felon Trump withholding millions in FEMA funds from blue states

 The Trump Administration Just Violated Another Court Order

A federal judge ruled Friday that the president violated a court order to stop freezing federal funds by withholding Federal Emergency Management Agency relief to at least 19 states. The judge said that the Trump administration seemed to be making a “covert” effort to punish states whose immigration practices differed from the White House.

U.S. District Judge John McConnell issued an injunction in March on behalf of 23 states that sued the federal government after the White House moved to pause aid to states, ruling that the move ​​“fundamentally undermines the distinct constitutional roles of each branch of our government.”

Selectively withholding FEMA funds of Blue states because of policy disagreements. Literally, he's willing to have Americans killed who disagree with him. 

He did this during Covid. When he saw that it was at first primarily hitting cities, he didn't give a single fuck and wanted people to die. It wasn't until rural areas and red states got hit harder that he started to pretend to care.

Remember when Biden held funding from red states because they didn’t agree with him.

……oh wait that didn’t happen.

The administration is attempting to exert complete control over spending to punish enemies, reward allies, and line their own pockets? Well, that's not even remotely novel.

Though the escalating level of "brazen" and "cruel" really does make it seem like they're just trying to provoke civil unrest.

Trump has threatened dozens of times to use the government to target political enemies

Donald Trump has repeatedly promised to weaponize the federal government during a second administration by pursuing revenge, retaliation and retribution against his political enemies. Because Trump is posting primarily on Truth Social, his newly-public social media company with only a niche following, the extent of his threats have mostly flown under the radar. Trump’s attitude can be summed up in one Truth Social post from August, 2023: “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!”

Florida Republicans push to loosen child labor laws

 Alarm as Florida Republicans move to fill deported workers’ jobs with children: ‘It’s insane, right?’

The answer, according to Florida lawmakers, is the state’s schoolchildren, who as young as 14 could soon be allowed to work overnight shifts without a break – even on school nights.

It literally allows for ENDLESS work hours, and another bill introduced at the same time allows for paying interns and apprentices below minimum wage. It's the child slavery act, outright.

Don't worry, It get's more child slavery focused:

Unsurprisingly, the proposal has alarmed immigration advocates and watchdog groups concerned about child labor abuses and exploitation.

They point out that there is nothing “part-time” in the language of the companion senate and house bills currently before lawmakers, which instead will permit unlimited working hours without breaks for 14- and 15-year-olds who are schooled at home or online, and allow employers to require 16- and 17-year-olds to work for more than six days in a row.

DeSantis is full on proposing child slavery:

Kennedy, however, pointed to another Republican bill that progressed this week that would allow employers to pay interns and apprentices less than minimum wage. 

Pro birth strikes again.

In their eyes abortion is murdering their future slaves.

The US will devolve in to a former soviet country. With a new group of oligarchs ruling the masses.

Should we start watching for people "jumping" from windows like in Russia? 

Criminalize abortion so more are born, cut the Dept of Education so they're minimally educated, expand labor laws to get them in the machine early. Disposable and consistently replaceable.

When Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), was asked last year about the Alabama IVF fiasco he said, "Anything we can do for the future of our young people because they're our #1 commodity. We need to have more kids."

COMMODITY: "A raw material or primary agricultural product that can be bought and sold..." NO ONE caught it. No one called him on it, questioned him, asked for clarity. Nothing. They put no value on children past what they can be used for.

Republicans doesn't trust their doctors

Democrats are more likely to trust their personal doctors and follow their doctors’ advice than Republicans, new research finds. The study found that Republicans and Democrats shared a trust in their doctors until 2020, when Democrats began to show more trust in their doctors than Republicans.

“The big takeaway from our research is that after the COVID-19 pandemic, not only are the left and right divided on COVID-19 health matters, they're also divided on trust in their own doctor and following their doctor’s advice about their health conditions,” O’Brian said. “This broader polarization about trust in medicine has trickled down to trust in your personal doctor to treat, in some cases, your chronic illnesses.”

The Republicans have always been people where if the facts align with their world view(they rarely do) then facts don't care about your feelings. For everything else it's use "common sense", "do your own research" which consists of fox or Facebook. Most notably see climate change and trickle down economics before covid.

It went from just trusting doctors to dems, “I know nothing about this field so I will lean on the experts to guide me,” and reps “I know nothing about this field therefore I trust no one”

There's been studies on the types of information that people trust segmented by political affiliation - the findings were that progressives were significantly more comfortable with uncertainty, complexity, fluid concepts, abstractions; conservatives preferred concretions, static and binary answers, simpler explanations.

Republicans hate anyone educated and mis-trust all knowledge. But they will gleefully follow someone that tells them to put a UV light up their butt and eat horse de-wormer.

Fox news does the funniest thing during market crash

 

This is DESPERATE.  Fox works by SPINNING the bad news. That they can't even find a plausible spin on this one gives you a sense of how BAD-BAD-BAD it's going to be.

In three months we went from a world power to the laughingstock of the allied nations (which we were formerly a part of). Now we're considered an adversary with a failing economy and destroyed trade relations. We're so despised China and Japan, which have had an adversarial relationship for centuries, just made a trade alliance against us.

It's also interesting seeing what every major US and reputable world news website is showing on a given day like yesterday and today... and then checking Fox News website.

Zero mention of the stock market there today. Only mention of M13 evil gang members, something about Obama, and left-leaning liberal in some city did something. And lord have mercy on you if you venture into reading the comments section.

It's surreal. They literally refuse to report the actual news if it's *anything* that makes Trump or the Republicans look even remotely not great.

We all know it’s Bidens fault, so let’s blame him again for the current mess. Fox are imbeciles, but they got their audience in a tight grip, the audience that believe in the blame game, and pointing at everyone else, but truth is, if you think everyone are idiots, it’s probably you who’s the idiot. Trump has blown up the whole economy, made all allies to never trust Americans again. 

Fox is legit almost beyond RT in terms of state propaganda. This country will not begin to heal as long as it still stands. We are vastly not acknowledging the extent of responsibility Fox News and its employees have on getting us into the mess we are in now.

We are no better than the trump administration when it comes to shirking personal responsibility. Fox News, Google, Meta, Tesla employees: you are complicit, you can quit. I know that fat salary is sweet but now you know why you got it. Don’t fool yourself

The answer is pretty self-evident, no?

 White House explains why new tariffs do not apply to Russia, North Korea

The White House clarified why new tariffs were not imposed on certain countries, including Russia and North Korea

A White House official, speaking to The New York Times on condition of anonymity, explained that Cuba, Belarus, North Korea, and Russia were not impacted by Trump's tariffs because "they are already facing extremely high tariffs." He added that existing sanctions prevent any full-scale trade with these countries.

Yes. USA and Russia has about 3bn in trade and USA just put sanctions on every country on the planet, except Russia... and Canada and Mexico, i think but that is also a no-brainer. The only part of this that very problematic, in this context, is the omission of Russia from that list. Makes NO sense, unless..

If I’m a prostitute, I don’t piss off my pimp.

He tarriffed Antartica where there are no people but didn't tarriff NK & Russia.  Got it, thanks.

There's no fucking way.. i need to look this up

https://www.wired.com/story/trump-tariffs-antarctic-islands-heard-mcdonald/

Oh fuck 

"U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged these countries not to take immediate retaliatory measures, warning that such actions could lead to further escalation."

Classic bully behavior, "Don't do anything or I'll hit you again!"

I understand that trump is just doing what he's told and would, quite literally, send every one of his children (except favorite fleshlight, ivanka) to El Salvador if putin told him to. The rest of these stooges seem to really believe they're winning.

This is 100x worse than Hillary Clinton

"Heads should roll": Congress erupts over stunning Trump admin leak

Why it matters: Some Democrats are already calling for an investigation and potential repercussions against the national security officials involved in the lapse.

"This is an outrageous national security breach and heads should roll," Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-Pa.), a member of the Armed Services Committee, said in a statement to Axios.

He added: "We need a full investigation and hearing into this on the House Armed Services Committee, ASAP."

"We can't chalk this up to a simple mistake — people should be fired for this," said Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.), another Armed Services Committee member.

Between the lines: People identifying as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, national security adviser Michael Waltz and Vice President Vance were among the 18 people in the Signal chat, per The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg.

The reporter from The Atlantic did a better job figuring out what information should be allowed for public consumption than the people in the intelligence and military leadership.

If Republicans wanted to jail Hillary Clinton for using the wrong email server, what should the punishment for this be?

When these statements are coming from Republicans, then we know something might have changed. But the comment from an R in that article was: "I've accidentally sent the wrong person a text. We all have."

This is not a "Whoopsie". They bypassed numerous protocols. 

How many hearings did they have over Hillary’s emails?

This is 100x worse. They not only leaked the war plans. We have actual confirmation that they are using Signal to conduct these plans.

Not only is that a massive security risk, the fact that the messages delete violates the record laws.

Like, let me be clear, this is worse than Hillary Clinton's email server, because Clinton didn't have anything that was classified at such a high level on her server EXCEPTING in cases where it was classified at higher clearance AFTER the fact. Stuff you'd get out of FOIA.

The use of Signal here shows that they are almost certainly using it for just about EVERYTHING, with the EXPRESS PURPOSE of avoiding ANY FOIA requests.

They aren't "keeping" records, they're planning, executing, and refusing to record anything in direct violation of federal law, SPECIFICALLY for the EXPRESS PURPOSE of avoiding those records coming back on them because they're committing crimes.

They HANG people for this, and I'm not joking: this is willing and knowing negligence, purposeful avoidance of federal records laws. They've breached basically every PART of the espionage act.

United States Secretary of Defense uses commerical communication for secret war plans

Pete Hegseth Sent Secret War Plans to Journalist by Accident 

Trump administration officials accidentally included a high-profile journalist in a group chat in which they discussed sensitive U.S. military plans for strikes against Yemen earlier this month.

In a piece for The Atlantic published online Monday, Jeffrey Goldberg, the magazine's editor-in-chief, wrote that he had been invited to the group chat with top members of the White House national security team, seemingly by accident, and added that he'd "never seen a breach quite like this."

war thunder forums are rejoicing it wasnt them this time.

Plus didn't a guy get sentenced for 15 years in prison recently for leaking classified documents in a Discord chatroom to some of his friends?

Googled it:

"Former Massachusetts Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira was sentenced Tuesday (November 12, 2024) to 15 years for stealing classified information from the Defense Department and sharing it online, the U.S. attorney for Massachusetts announced."

Bet no one responsible for today's leaks won't face any consequences. 

For a specific list, this was VERY classified info (not merely "stamped classified," but info about an active impending military action) and they:

• Sent it through a unauthorized, not-allowed, non-secure commercial platform
• With hardware you're not supposed to use for it
• Almost certainly from locations where they aren't allowed to have the discussion- you can't even bring a cell phone into the secure room (SCIF)
• Accidentally copied someone who was ABSOLUTELY not supposed to have access to the info
• Set it up for illegal destruction of records

They were supposed to:

• Use the correct hardware
• From the correct secure location (SCIF)
• With the correct secure software
• NOT SEND INFO TO SOMEONE WHO ISN'T ALLOWED TO ACCESS IT
• Archive information securely for the secure records

Texas megachurch founder Robert Morris indicted on charges of lewd acts with a child

Robert Morris, 63, who founded Gateway Church in Southlake, is charged with five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, the attorney general’s office said in a statement.

Not a drag queen. how interesting, almost like it's a bunch of projection. 

Pretty on-brand for both Trump & Megachurches. 

Its always those who you suspects

 

 GOP Senator Solicited Sex From Minor the Same Day He Introduced 'Trump Derangement' Bill: Police

A Minnesota Senator has been arrested after being accused of soliciting a minor for prostitution the same day he sponsored a bill that would recognize "Trump derangement syndrome" as a legitimate mental illness.

While Eichorn is yet to be formally charged, felony charges pertaining to the solicitation of a minor to engage in prostitution are actively being processed. The 40-year-old Senator is married with children.

It's always the ones you suspect the most.

Conservatives and pedos, name a more iconic duo.

The SAME FUCKING DAY?

This story is just too perfect. It has absolutely everything.

Not a drag queen or trans.

Seems like this only keeps REPEATEDLY happening to one side, and it's not the people they keep claiming are the ones grooming and exposing themselves to children.

Another example of the religious right being pedophiles but trying to blame the left

No one ever makes a billion dollars

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 'No One Ever Makes a Billion Dollars. You Take a Billion Dollars.'

"You made that money off of the backs of undocumented people, you made that money off of the backs of black and brown people being paid under a living wage, you made that money off of the backs of single mothers," Ocasio-Cortez continued. "No one ever makes a billion dollars. You take a billion dollars."

That's one of the best quotes I've ever heard. "No one ever makes a billion dollars. You take a billion dollars"

Spending money is good for the economy ... every Billionaire will tell you that.

• Every Billionaire will tell you

• Every BILLIONAIRE will tell YOU that

• Every Billionaire will tell YOU to spend YOUR money to help the economy.

• Every notice they don't spend theirs?

• Why does the Billionaire need YOU to not save your money?

• So that the Billionaire can take it for himself.

Pragmatically speaking you cannot have this level of wealth inequality. Period. It is unsustainable. It will destroy civilized, modern society. You like stability? You like research and investment? You like modern infrastructure and utilities and reliable running water, electricity at the flick of a switch? 

You cannot have such an unequal society. Because right or wrong it will result in violence sooner or later. And if we can avoid that, if we can have a more stable, secure, peaceful society by redistributing the wealth from the unimaginably wealthy, then even if they "earned" it I really don't give a fuck. They can pay more to sustain the society in which they have greatly benefited living in.

And like Biden said, which Bernouts constantly misappropriated, "nothing would fundamentally change." You know what happens to someone with 100 billion dollars who gets taxed half of it? They still have 50 fucking billion dollars and are rich as fuck. They don't have to worry about money ever. Their kids don't. Their kids' kids don't. They can fly private everywhere. Eat anywhere. Buy anything. Have a mansion on every continent, hell most countries around the world. No one is suggesting even close to a 50% wealth tax but that's the point. These people are so rich you could take a full fucking half of it and they'd still be unimaginably filthy rich. So take that fucking money and redistribute it so we can continue to have a stable, functioning fucking civilization. Fucking please. You can keep your fucking yacht and fancy cars and enormous houses and maids and servants and generational wealth. Just not to the insane excess you have right now.

 House Democrats Tear Into Trump Admin for Quickly Tanking 'Strongest' Stock Market Ever: 'In 1 Month They've F--ked It All Up'

House Democrats tore into the Trump administration for quickly tanking one of the "strongest" stock markets ever in a scathing X post on Monday. 

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which works to elect Democrats into the House of Representatives, shared a post about the stock market tumbling since President Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20.

"Republicans inherited one of the strongest stock markets in history and in 1 month they've f--ked it all up," the DCCC stated.

There is a pattern: 

• Jimmy Carter added $25 billion to the deficit.

• Ronald Reagan added $74 billion. That seemed bad at the time; just you wait.

• George H.W. Bush added $102 billion.

• Bill Clinton reduced the deficit by $383 billion, leaving the budget in surplus when he left office.

• George W. Bush added $1.54 trillion to the deficit.

• Barack Obama got the deficit down to $585 billion; that is, he reduced it by $825 billion.

• Donald Trump added $2.1 trillion to the deficit.

• Joe Biden reduced the deficit by about $942 billion. 

The especially heinous part of this is that the Republican tax plans are always built in a way that gives momentary benefits that fuck you extra hard when they expire, but they only ever expire for us shelbs. The rich get permanent tax breaks, the rest of us get temporary ones. That's why the deficit keeps growing - they keep giving the rich even larger breaks while the rest of us get fucked even further.

No one realizes the long term trend. They just know that the Republicans are in power when their taxes were lower, and the Democrats are in power when they're higher. So when it comes time to vote, they remember that Democrat leadership cost them higher taxes, so therefore it MUST be the Democrats' fault.

Incoherent Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump on Tariff band wagon

He purposely repeats the falsehood that other countries will pay for tariffs because he wants his cult to continue to believe it and regurgitate it when its brought up as an argument.

He can then say look government will profit 2+ Trillion in tarrifs from countries paying us, so we dont need the federal income tax for billionaires and multi-millionaires anymore.

Which is the goal:

The top 1% save upwards of 2 trillion in taxes which become liquid money for them to buy things they want.

The bottom 90% will struggle to pay the tariffs and lose work and jobs will decline leading to more small businesses and mortgages failing.

The new 2 Trillion Yearly Liquid Cash for the top 1% will be spent to buy up those businesses and houses for pennies on the dollar.

He needs to repeat it so his base of alternate reality cultists, repeat it Ad nauseum. Because when the protests start and he declares martial law and goes after the protestors, the media and his cultists will still be on his side and even potentially willingly risk their lives for him for nothing in return.

They are planning a complete takeover. Selling of government and private property to the top 1% for eternal wealth accumulation. They will just move out of the country and have their employees manage things in the US while everyone else suffers the great depression.

They want a oligarchy. They want corporate run cities, with indentured servants who have no options but to work for them for as little as they want to pay you.

This is the new age of United States of Russia.

Linguists have studied Trumps rhetorical style and identified that he does two things that have proven to be very effective: repetition and simplicity. The latter is often preferred at the expense of nuance (at best) and accuracy (at worst).

Trumps gross oversimplification is a strategy. It's asymmetrical information warfare. By grossly oversimplifying, he forces his ideological opponents to expend a tremendous amount of energy as he simply repeats the same over-simplification.

Humans really want things to be simple. Even relatively smart people prefer a simple explanation to a complicated one. That's why we gravitate toward dichotomies, even when reality is expressly not I dichotomy.

Consider the very notion of "right" vs "left". Lumping all political discussions into right vs left shoehorns our entire political discourse into a pro wrestling level of sophistication. The reality is that each issue is multi-dimensional.

No one wants to hear that though. They want to here "this good; that bad", or even better "us good; they bad". It appeals to our most basal instincts.

I think Trump 100% understands what economists are saying when they say Americans ultimately pay for tariffs. I think he even knows that himself. He sees it as an "ends justify the means" situation. The wealthy can afford to ride it out. Many have taken large cash positions that they intend to plow back into assets after the market correction occurs.

The more nuanced Trump is, the more he alienates the people who elected him. Sticking to an oversimplified and incorrect position is advantageous for him. The challenge for his opposition is finding a message and communication style that gathers a larger cohort of the electorate.

Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump on Tariffs

He does understand tariffs (to the basic degree), though. He might not have in the beginning but he has been explained it multiple times now.

BUT

He purposely repeats the falsehood that other countries will pay for tariffs because he wants his cult to continue to believe it and regurgitate it when its brought up as an argument.

He can then say look government will profit 2+ Trillion in tarrifs from countries paying us, so we dont need the federal income tax for billionaires and multi-millionaires anymore.

Which is the goal:

Petty Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump aiding Russians in Ukraine

 Washington BANS Britain from sharing any US military intelligence with Ukraine

Donald Trump's decision to freeze American military aid to Kyiv yesterday brought warnings that Ukraine could run out of weapons in as little as two to three months' time.

But on top of missiles and ammunition, all UK intelligence agencies and military outlets also received an order expressly forbidding the sharing of US-generated intelligence, previously known as 'Rel UKR' - short for Releasable to Ukraine'.

Main thing, nobody should share intelligence with US right now. 

I know people are focusing mostly on Trump but Tulsi Gabbard (new head of the US intelligence comunity) is even worse.

We are talking of a cospiracy thorist who personally met and defended Assad, spread lies about secret us biochemical labs in Ukraine to justify the Russian invasion and has been accused of being on the Kremlin's payroll since 2020.

We simply can't share informations with the US without them being most likely passed to Russia as well.

It is as if he takes every wrong decision he can, so most of them only benefit Russia.

Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump is about to start World War 3

Trump says the U.S. will take control of Greenland ‘one way or the other’

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the United States would take control of Greenland “one way or the other,” escalating months of increasingly aggressive rhetoric towards the self-governing Danish territory.

How did WW3 start? When the USA invaded Greenland. 

Imagine going back in time 20 years and telling people the weirdo Apprentice host would start WW3 by having America invade Greenland. And oh yeah he's also a Russian Agent and became President (again) to avoid prosecution for treason. Their heads would explode.

The worse is not Trump saying it, it's the big laugh & clap Vance and the republicans had when he said it.

All of Nato needs to sanction this criminal. Do not share intelligence, trade embargo until he behaves.

Not until he behaves, until he is removed… one way or another.

President Trump Says He Will Take Greenland "One Way or the Other"

President Trump addresses the people of Greenland saying that the island is of national security significance to the U.S. and he will take it "one way or the other."

In less than 2 months this man has turned the United States into a trade and security threat to its allies. Imagine what he can do in the remaining 4 years. 

This moldy orange wants to go to war with Canada, Greenland, and Panama. All while probably supplying Russia with weapons. Absolute cunt of a man, and so are his supporters.

Coercion and threats are his method of choice. Likewise with our friends in Canada.

It's vital he gets no concessions. the blackmailer always comes back for more.

I don't see a world where he can take these things by force, the markets and the US$ status as the principal reserve currency are at stake.

It will trickle down any day now... trust me bro

 50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says

Tax cuts for the wealthy have long drawn support from conservative lawmakers and economists who argue that such measures will "trickle down" and eventually boost jobs and incomes for everyone else. But a new study from the London School of Economics says 50 years of such tax cuts have only helped one group — the rich.

The new paper, by David Hope of the London School of Economics and Julian Limberg of King's College London, examines 18 developed countries — from Australia to the United States — over a 50-year period from 1965 to 2015. The study compared countries that passed tax cuts in a specific year, such as the U.S. in 1982 when President Ronald Reagan slashed taxes on the wealthy, with those that didn't, and then examined their economic outcomes. 

The point was always to decrease labor power.

And steal their wealth. So many pensions were stolen during the Reagan years.

Trickle down economics is a lie that's been sold to justify the extravagance of the bourgeoisie, that we should feel thankful for the scraps off their plates.

The belief of some people that we shouldn’t tax billionaires or hold them to account because one day you might be a billionaire is mind-bogglingly stupid and incredibly naive. It comes down to this these days: if you’re not already a billionaire, the odds of you becoming a billionaire are practically zero.

Read the other books in this series:

10 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economic study says.

20 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economic study says.

30 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economic study says.

40 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economic study says.

Looking forward to reading this one and see what's changed!

Also can't wait for the sequel at 60 years.

Keep voting for corrupt politicians, it's working!!! 

Working peoples party Republicans tax plan

 

The fact that so many people voted for this shit just tells you how much propaganda runs rampant in the US.

Under Trump taxes are going up, inflation will increase due to his tariffs, the stock market will go down since the economy will probably go into a recession.

Is this America's Golden Age Trump keeps talking about?

To be clear, for the people at the top, this will decrease their taxes massively. Like the 36K is an average. If you are a CEO making tens of millions, the savings will be a lot more than that.

However, it's an even better point to make for the 360K to 914K range. Destroying democracy to save 7K.

Russian Asset Convicted Rapist Felon Donald Trump is weakest president ever

 Musk and Hannity Talk Right Over Trump in Awkward Fox News Interview

President Donald Trump looked like he was hung out to dry by Elon Musk and ally Sean Hannity, with the two men ignoring him and speaking over him in the latest instalment of the Fox News host’s high-profile sit-down with the pair.

When has any POTUS ever given an interview side-by-side with someone else like this on TV? Insane how even his supporters don't notice how extremely out of place this is.

When, in history, has a president ever had an interview on tv while sitting next to a private citizen, who is constantly talking over him?

This is fucking bizarre.

Trump Gave Europe Three Weeks to Sign Off on Ukraine 'Surrender': MEP

President Donald Trump gave Europe three weeks to sign off on terms for Ukraine's "surrender" to Russia, a member of the European Parliament (MEP) claimed.

Blackmailing your allies once means he is going to be doing this over and over again, every time he demands something.

Might as well not listen now and avoid digging in this hole right at the beginning. 

Took 30 days to destroy pretty much the entire world order established since 1945. 

Trump Threatens to Blow Apart Entire G7 to Protect Putin

President Donald Trump is risking unity with G7 nations and threatening to rewrite the narrative around “Russian aggression,” according to officials who claim the U.S. wants to use softer language to describe Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine.

The departure from the Biden-era style of calling a spade a spade comes after Trump and Putin sidelined Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and went ahead with peace talks on the country’s Russia problem without him. After the Saudi summit Trump sensationally blamed Ukraine and Zelensky on the war and even called him a “dictator.”

He's blowing Putin already while ketamine weevil is fondling his shoulders.

There is just no way to explain this approach from trump other than to believe he is a KGB operative or putin has compromising information him.

US opposes calling Russia aggressor in G7 statement marking 3rd year of full-scale war in Ukraine, FT says

Washington is reportedly opposing, for the first time, labelling Russia as the aggressor in a joint G7 statement marking the third anniversary of Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and is not approving President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's participation in a virtual G7 summit.

US opposes calling Russia aggressor in G7 statement marking 3rd year of full-scale war in Ukraine, FT says : worldnews 

And turns out the USSR won the cold war, 30 years later.

Here's the truth Trump

 President Donald Trump blamed Ukraine for the continuation of the war and even hinted that they started it. He says that Russia wants to stop the barbarities. The facts are:

• Russia has started the barbarities and is responsible for their continuation

• Russia began the invasion

• Russia has killed civilians and has forced them out of their homes

• Russia has bombed hospitals

• Russia has made children orphans

For three years has Ukraine fought for its freedom.

GOP the party for the people giving tax cut to the rich

 GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid

House Republicans unveiled a draft budget resolution on Wednesday that calls for $4.5 trillion in tax breaks that would disproportionately benefit the wealthy while proposing $2 trillion in cuts to Medicaid, federal nutrition assistance, and other programs.

Is it trickling down yet?

Is it fucking trickling down yet?

We have had 40+ years of this horse-and-sparrow economics and so far all we have had to show for it is eating shit in front of obese horses.

Now they are telling us that the fat horses need to be fed even more than they already are, when many of the rest of us will literally starve for it.

So when do our tax dollars that we have been handing over to the rich, to make our food more expensive, our housing more expensive, our healthcare more expensive, trickle back down to us? 

Unelected South African Immigrant is threating defy judicial rulings

 Musk’s Threats Suddenly Darken as Trump Legal Losses Trigger MAGA Fury

Rage is mounting among President Donald Trump’s allies over the losses that Trump’s agenda has suffered in court, which are clearly becoming a serious obstacle to him. It’s gotten so bad that Elon Musk shared a tweet from someone who suggested that it may be time to defy the courts. Musk also boosted Trump allies who are seething over these rulings. All that amounts to a pretty dark threat from Musk: He and MAGA appear to be steeling themselves to defy judicial rulings. 

 Definitely worth noting that person is Vice President J.D. Vance.

Vice President of the United States is suggesting defying judicial rulings.

The fact that the vice president is ready to go full autocrat is probably more news worthy than Musk being ready to seize power. Musk is the unelected defacto president, of course he is all for shattering any checks on his power.

Vance has been ready for that for a while. In 2021 he said:

"I think what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single mid-level bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, and replace them with our people. And when the courts stop you, stand before the country and say, 'The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.'"

The party of fiscal conservatism everybody.

House Republicans unveil blueprint to extend $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and lift the debt ceiling 

House Republicans released a budget plan Wednesday that sets the stage for advancing many of President Donald Trump's top domestic priorities, providing for up to $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and a $4 trillion increase in the debt limit so that the U.S. can continue financing its bills.

Turns out it was social conservatism and fiscal shell games all along.

They say they want to cut shit so America can use that money to pay off its debt.

Then they cut shit while raising the debt limit and extending tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy.

And this isn't new. This is a pattern with them. They do this shit every time they get Congress.

And yet, somehow, so many very stupid people who are unable to recognize patterns couldn't shut up about how it was Harris who abandoned the working class. 

Transgender sex changes in jail for illegal aliens tricked millions into voting against their interests. It's unreal...

Also Republicans: "The national debt is too high!" (Whenever there's a Democrat in office.)

Fuck all of them.

Trump did that

Trumpers are gonna see how annoying that shit was.

Apparently Trump’s plan to bring down prices and inflation is to start trade wars to increase prices? How does that work?

Trump said he would lower prices, blamed groceries including bacon on Biden.

 

South African Apartheid Immigrant Musk some things I say will be incorrect

My boss would fire me if i spoke like that...

Who’s going to fire him, Vice President Trump?

So he gets to cut departments and fire people because he finds "mistakes" but it should be understandable if he makes mistakes while doing because "not everyone bats a thousand"?

And brain rotted MAGA applauds this idiot?

Then he said that we still shouldn’t be sending condoms. Then later he said that preventing the spread of diseases like Ebola or AIDS is something that USAID should be doing. The dude literally does not think one sentence ahead.

AOC called him the dumbest billionaire she's ever met. The more he's in front of a camera, the more that statement makes sense.

Look at Trump’s posture. Bought and paid for.

He’s Elon’s bitch.

There's never been a more weak President.

Art of the Trade and Trump blinked

 In the face of a trade war with America’s neighbors, Trump blinked

Trump’s classic political method is already on full display in his second presidency and helps explain the baffling chaos, brinkmanship and posturing of his tariff showdown with Canada and Mexico.

Punishing 25% levies on imports from America’s closest neighbors were due to come into force at 12:01 a.m. ET Tuesday, but Trump put his two-front trade war on hold, claiming he’d scored two big wins and major concessions.

But despite a White House victory lap, there’s a more convincing case that it was really Trump who backed away from a fight that could have caused severe economic pain.

Tremendous job at alienating your best friend and closest ally.

Lots of US states will notice this summer when the tourists don’t come. I came across some “Come visit X state!” ads on Facebook recently from various US state government tourist agencies and the comments were littered with Canadians saying (rather politely thankfully), “Yeah, No, Not happening” in many different ways.

The US pissed off the entirety of Canada. They pissed off the Quebecois and Albertans so badly that they became friends.

The Journal de Montréal has a great article about a food distributor canceling orders Monday morning and his suppliers in the US freaking out. Canada didn’t bend the knee, the US lobbyists representing farmers, construction companies , car makers, etc. all called to President they voted for and told him to cave. Putin’s agenda is all nice and all until it costs money. 

Trump emptied California reservoirs

 2.2 billion gallons of water flowed out of California reservoirs because of Trump’s order to open dams

The US Army Corps of Engineers opened two dams on Friday in Central California and let roughly 2.2 billion gallons of water flow out of reservoirs, after President Donald Trump ordered the release with the misguided intent to send water to fire-ravaged Southern California.

Trump celebrated the move in posts to Truth Social post on Friday and Sunday, declaring, “the water is flowing in California,” and adding the water was “heading to farmers throughout the State, and to Los Angeles.”

There are two major problems, water experts said: The newly released water will not flow to Los Angeles, and it is being wasted by being released during the wet winter season.

You'll want to check back in the summer when California has no water reserved. 

Wonder how the farmers react to this. They, more than anyone else, should know how big of a waste this is. We LA residents already know.

It’s economic sabotage.  Farmers are going to need that water this summer and it is gone.

All family farms will go under and corporate farms will buy them all out. Although they voted for this, whether they knew it or not…

Trump is both vindictive and not very bright.

Trump pardoned January 6th rioter back in the jail

Pardoned January 6 Rioter Arrested in Texas for Soliciting Sex From a Minor

Andrew Taake, a convicted January 6 rioter who was recently pardoned by President Donald Trump, was arrested in Texas on Tuesday for an outstanding 2016 charge of online solicitation of a minor.

Taake was taken into custody at 11:30 a.m. by the Harris County District Attorney's Fugitive Apprehension Section, in coordination with multiple law enforcement agencies. Authorities tracked him to a residence in Leon County, where a surveillance operation confirmed his location before his arrest.

This list is from 1/30, it might not be up to date:

1 death by cop

1 arrest due to soliciting a minor- (now 2 apparently)

1 arrest on federal gun charges

1 dui - hit a couple celebrating their anniversary, killed the wife. Charged with vehicular manslaughter

1 CSAM (child sex abuse material)

And at least 7 more arrested awaiting indictment for unknown reasons.

Imagine if this were a Democratic pardon. Republicans and media world already be demanding the president's head on a platter.

But because it's Trump, it'll barely make a ripple.

I saw a comment today that was like "Biden was pardoning his criminal son while Elon and Trump are saving america" I was gonna respond but someone that far gone just can't be reasoned with.

... does a normal random sample of 1500 people commit crimes this fast?

I mean it's a lot so you'd expect a few crimes out of them as time goes on but I feel like it's pretty easy to randomly grab 1500 folks and not have a chomo and self deletion by cop within a few months.

They couldn't even go a couple weeks without committing new crimes.

What happened is the whole "trans are pedos" thing is a MASSIVE projection. It's GOP states that allow child marriage.

And Donald Chump

 

Anyone else thinking that he might have just... totally lost it? Like late Reagan, but worse, and his handlers are too busy looting the country to stop other people from filling their pockets, too? It honestly seems like he's just agreeing with whoever managed to talk with him alone last.

Musk somehow talks him into giving him direct access to the treasury.

Canada and Mexico talk him away from his crazy tariffs scheme by promising to do things they were already doing.

Zelenski secures ongoing military aid by promising access to minerals that are currently underneath the better part of the Russian army.

Now Bibi shows up, and talks Trump into taking over Gaza - a blasted wasteland with no resources, no infrastructure, and apparently no people since they're just going to "move 2 million Palestinians somewhere else" after 80 years of Israel trying and failing - in like, an afternoon?

It's like he's a senior citizen being talked out of his life savings by an Indian phone scammer. I would be genuinely worried that if one called him he'd turn over the entire US treasury in the form of Google Play gift cards, except apparently Elon Musk has already taken it.

Trump says U.S. will take over Gaza Strip

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the United States will take over and own the Gaza Strip, adding that "the same people" should not be in charge of rebuilding and occupying the land.

So... how many invasions is that now? Greenland, Mexico, Canada, and now the Gaza Strip?

He's bringing back the draft for sure.

 

Trump is Elon’s bitch.

 Elon Musk Is President

He did not receive a single vote. He did not get confirmed. He does not receive a government paycheck.

The world’s richest man has declared war on the federal government and, in a matter of days, has moved to slash its size and reach, while gaining access to some of its most sensitive secrets. He has shaped the public discourse by wielding the powerful social-media site he controls and has threatened to use his fortune to bankroll electoral challenges to anyone who opposes him.

Elon Musk’s influence appears unchecked, triggering cries of alarm from those who worry about conflicts of interest, security clearances, and a broad, ill-defined mandate. But the Republican-controlled Congress has shown no desire so far to rein Musk in. There has never been a private citizen like him.

Every time Trump does a press conference, journalists just need to start asking:

“Can we actually ask Elon’s opinion on that first?”

“And what does Elon think about that?”

“But is that what Elon would do?”

“And is Elon onboard with that?”

Make it clear that Elon’s POV is the one they want, not Trumps, and let ego do the rest of the work.

This needs to be the narrative. Appeal to Trumps ego and narcissism. If he keeps seeing this, he'll give Elon the boot.

For a country so anti-immigrant.

An un-elected immigrant has taken over their government, thrown people out of office, seized information and power.

Shout it far and wide.

Trump is Elon’s bitch.

Trump Is a Clear and Present Danger to the Nation’s Security

Trump Is a Clear and Present Danger to the Nation’s Security

In his first days in office, Donald Trump has shown he is a clear and present danger to the security of the nation and the American people. As expected, like a mad emperor, he has served up red meat to his followers, struck out at his opponents, pursued his fickle fixations, while enforcing a craven public obeisance from the Republican Senate. Too easily lost in the whirl of insults, follies and menace, however, is the direct threat he now poses to American security.

It was apparent in his first administration. It was apparent when he illegally took secret documents to Mar A-Lago.

Yet every slow-walked and delayed his persecution because of a need to maintain norms, fear of MAGA rats, or they were synchophants. Trump will destroy any pretense that America is a serious global power. 

He also stacked both scotus and lower courts. Short of literally ordering a hit on him, which I guess in theory Biden could have done, there’s only so much you can do outside of the justice department.

He’s gonna fuck up the world. The dynamics in the world are already shifting with our allies. We’re gonna have Europe parked in Greenland when we (USA)don’t belong there and they have way better things to do.

The damage he is doing to the U.S. in terms of its standing in the world is permanent. No other country will ever trust the U.S. again not to elect another narcissistic moron in future hell bent on doing as much damage as possible to everyone who doesn’t agree with their world view.

He's a full-fledged dictator loyal to Russia that's dismantling the country, and has the support of all branches of government plus the military. The time to stop him would have been before he got back into office.

Trump rewriting the history of the January 6th insurrection

Trump DOJ scrubs entire Jan. 6 Capitol riot database from the web

The removal of the content comes just days after President Donald Trump pardoned anyone for “offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.”

Under the Biden administration, the web hub for the Washington, D.C. District Attorney’s Office housed a repository of more than 1,200 Capitol breach cases, which included PDFs of the case filings for each defendant. The office also periodically released data on new arrests and case resolutions, and information about how to provide tips to the FBI. 

As of Tuesday afternoon, this content was removed. The URL for the case database now leads to a “Page not found” placeholder.

Rep. Virginia Foxx, 81, Slips and Falls on First Day of New Congress

Foxx, 81, is the most recent elderly lawmaker to have hurt herself while on the job. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 84, was admitted to a hospital after sustaining a hip injury in Luxembourg. She required surgery and was seen without her signature stilettos when the House of Representatives reconvened Friday.

 Maybe we shouldn't be electing senior citizens to plan the future of the country.

If the US an have a minimum age for president they damn well can have a maximum age. I know it'll never happen because the US government is run by dinosaurs, but people can still dream.

Pelosi fell, McConnell fell, this lady fell, Kay Granger is locked in a memory care unit…

Congress is a nursing home/hospice

"During her time in office, Foxx was one of the 11 members of Congress to vote against the $51 billion aid package to victims of Hurricane Katrina. She also introduced the Preserving Employee Wellness Programs Act in 2017.

She later voted against both articles of impeachment in 2019 for former President Donald Trump, with her also being one of the 147 Republican lawmakers who objected to the certification of electoral votes from the 2020 presidential election on January 6, 2021.

Foxx is an opponent of the Affordable Care Act, saying that "we have more to fear from the potential of the Affordable Health Care for America Act passing than we do from any terrorist right now in any country." In 2022, Foxx voted against the Respect for Marriage Act to codify same-sex and interracial marriage rights federally."

Wow. Really a servant of the people, this one.
