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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.

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.
