Trump Reveals that He is a Bipartisan Racist in a Pair of Disgusting Truth Social Posts

Posted by on April 25, 2026 at 1:01 pm. 0 Comments :

The flaming bigotry of Donald Trump is not exactly a breaking news story. He has displayed his racial hatred for decades in a virtually prideful manner, and shamelessly exploits it to secure the support of the small but obnoxiously loud community of American bigots.

Donald Trump, MAGA

For the most part Trump’s prejudices have been directed at his political foes on the left. He routinely describes Democrats and civil rights leaders as racists in an effort to deflect attention from himself and to diffuse the term of any meaning. For instance…

SEE THIS: Jasmine Crockett Tells the Truth About Trump, So He is Attacking Her and Other Women of Color

While most of Trump’s racist attacks just happen to fall on Black women, he does sometimes broaden his attacks to include Black men, including Don Lemon and Charlamagne Tha God. But on Saturday morning Trump went after the Democratic House Leader, Hakeem Jeffries, saying that…

“Hakeem “High Tax” Jeffries is a Low IQ individual who is not smart enough to be ‘running’ the Democrat Party, and certainly not smart enough to be involved in running the United States of America.”

Trump’s “Low IQ” epithet is a big part of his extraordinarily limited vocabulary. And it is aimed almost exclusively at Black men and women who dare to oppose him. What made Trump’s outburst on this occasion slightly different is that he also called one of his most fervent MAGA supporters “Low IQ” just a few minutes after insulting Jeffries with it. He railed at ultra-rightist Candace Owens, who recently criticized Trump over his Iran war, saying that…

“Candace Owens’ stock, which was never very high, has fallen a long way…she is an extremely Low IQ individual!”

So Trump is demonstrating that he has the capacity to be a bipartisan racist, demeaning the intelligence of Black people on both the left and right ends of the political spectrum. Of course, he still directs the vast majority of this abuse at left-leaning Black women including Kamala Harris, Jasmine Crockett, Maxine Waters, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib, all of whom he has called “Low IQ.”

In yet another affirmation of Trump’s inbred racism, this week he ordered his “Justice” Department to prosecute the Southern Poverty Law Center, a non-profit enterprise that has been fighting racial hate organizations for 50 years. And of course, their preposterous, legally meritless allegations are that the SPLC is itself racist. The real objective of the persecution is to defend groups like the KKK that form the base of Trump’s MAGA cult.

In the Trump era he has had some success at making it acceptable to be openly racist, at least within the already racist MAGA communities. It will be interesting to see if they continue to back him now that he has launched his invective at the Blacks that they have tolerated because they embraced Trump.

The MAGA cult has lately been showing cracks in their foundation. Will this topple it completely? Probably not. But combined with his broken promises to refrain from starting new wars, and to release the Epstein files, and to lower prices for gas, groceries, etc. the ground beneath Trump’s empire may be turning into quicksand.

Jimmy Kimmel Hosts the ALTERNATIVE White House Correspondents’ Dinner Featuring Snowflake Trump

Posted by on April 24, 2026 at 1:19 pm. 0 Comments :

On Saturday the White House Correspondents’ Association is holding their annual gala dinner. However, there are some notable differences with this year’s event from those held previously. For one thing, this will be the first time that Donald Trump will attend as president. Which many people regard as an incentive to skip the whole thing.

Jimmy Kimmel with Trump baby

Another difference is that this year’s entertainment will be provided by a magician/hypnotist, rather than a comedian. Is that because Trump’s ego is too delicate to tolerate any humor at his expense, or is it some sort of attempt to plant post-hypnotic MAGA suggestions into the audience? In any case, it is being reported that Trump will not stick around after he delivers his remarks, that are expected to be a “revenge” rant aimed at the media that he despises. So he will miss the hypnotist, as well as the awards that are being given to journalists, many of which are for articles revealing his innumerable failures.

SEE THIS: The White House Correspondents Association Awards Are Gonna Really Piss Trump Off

Consequently, on Thursday night Jimmy Kimmel sought to remedy that absence of a comedian at the dinner by putting together his own version of the speech that he would give if he were the guest speaker (video below). He called it “The Alternative White House Correspondents’ Dinner,” and introduced it saying that…

“Typically somebody funny shows up and roasts the luminaries, the president, and everyone. But our president is a delicate snowflake, with the the thinnest fat skin ever. And that means there’s gonna be no comedian this year. So I thought why not take a page from the ‘Kid Rock Alternative Halftime Show.”“

Whereupon Kimmel presented a hilarious address that mocked Trump, Melania, JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel, Robert Kennedy Jr. Stephen Miller, and FCC chairman Brendan Carr. Some of whom will be at the real dinner because CBS, in a show of pathetic capitulation, has invited Hegseth and Miller as their guests. Here a few examples from Kimmel’s speech that would definitely upset our Fragile-Flower-in-Chief…

“We’ll get you all dressed up in formal wear, dresses, tuxedos. I haven’t seen this much black since every page of the Trump Epstein files.”

“We’re gonna have fun tonight, and I’m happy you decided to stay, Mr. President. And don’t worry if we bruise your ego, it’ll only make your hands look less disgusting.”

“The president didn’t want me to tell any jokes about him tonight, but he also didn’t want to pay me $130,000 to shut up. Sorry Mushroom Dick.”

“I get why you think you’re Jesus. This guy, every time he walks into a room, people say, Christ, he’s back.”

“You’re looking good, Mr. President. Who did your makeup? Kraft Singles?

“President Trump has accomplished so much during his second term. He passed new incentives for oil and gas. He put the brakes on solar and wind. That will be your legacy, sir, breaking wind and passing gas.”

Can you imagine Trump finding any of that funny? Kimmel also paid tribute to Trump by presenting him with another of the fake participation trophies that he loves so much. This one is the much coveted “Burger King of Comedy Gold Award.”

It will be interesting to see just how badly Trump foams at the mouth while spewing hate during his remarks. And the quick cuts to his angry reactions to other speakers will also provide some entertainment. And much of that will likely be unintentionally hilarious. But for actual comedy value, we will have to be satisfied with Kimmel’s fake speech. So for your entertainment pleasure…

Trump-Fluffing Media Mogul is Hosting a ‘Tribute’ Dinner for Anti-Media, Wannabe Dictator Trump

Posted by on April 23, 2026 at 1:01 pm. 0 Comments :

The seething animosity that Donald Trump fosters for the free press has been a defining characteristic of his warped, anti-democratic persona for as long as he has been in public life. He even published an anti-media page on the White House website. Ironically, he has also had an enduring dependency on the very same press for the constant attention he craves and that fuels his massive yet fragile ego.

Donald Trump

In a shameless attempt to kiss the…let’s say ring…of Herr Trump, billionaire media mogul and CEO of the Paramount Skydance conglomerate (which owns CBS), David Ellison, will be hosting a dinner Friday night to pay tribute to Trump for rolling over so compliantly and approving Ellison’s bid to takeover Warner Bros. Discovery (which owns CNN). Ellison has previously “paid” tribute to Trump in the form of millions of dollars in bribes to grease the wheels of his merger bid.

SEE THIS: Paramount Caves to Trump’s Extortion, Disgraces CBS, Pays a $16M Bribe to Settle a Bogus Lawsuit

Now, on the eve of the White House Correspondents’ Association’s annual gala, Ellison is fluffing Trump and his ego once again. As reported by Variety…

“David Ellison, whose Paramount Skydance is awaiting closure of its massive deal to swallow up Warner Bros. Discovery, will host an invitation-only dinner next week ‘honoring’ President Donald Trump and CBS News’ White House correspondents, Variety has confirmed.

The event will take place in Washington, D.C., on April 23, two days before the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday, April 25. The Ellison-hosted function will be held at the United States Institute of Peace in Washington, which the State Department in December 2025 announced was being renamed ‘The Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace.'”

The optics of this tribute dinner couldn’t be more disturbing. Ellison is brazenly exhibiting his bias for Trump and his MAGA cult movement. That bias has already been evident in the reporting by CBS, where its 60 Minutes program interfered with segments that were critical of Trump. What’s more, CBS has invited Trump’s Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, and Senior Neo-Fascist, Stephen Miller, to be their guests at the WHCA’s dinner on Saturday.

How can anyone take seriously any dedication to honest, unbiased reporting by an organization displaying this much blatant political favoritism? It is also notable that while Ellison has plenty of time to suck up to Trump with patronizing dinners, he was unable to make time to appear before a congressional hearing probing Paramount’s efforts to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, that has numerous potential anti-trust violations.

Meanwhile, Ellison’s aspirations for autocratic media dominance are not a done deal. California Attorney General Rob Bonta will be conducting a “vigorous” review of Paramount’s pending acquisition. There will be similar reviews by legal authorities in other states, as well as internationally.

So the Trump regime’s takeover of the free press will be facing significant obstacles. And in the end they will have succeeded only in severely degrading the public’s trust in the institutions that align with Trump.

YOU’RE FIRED: Trump Media’s CEO, Devin Nunes, Gets Booted From the Failing Truth Social Company

Posted by on April 22, 2026 at 2:02 pm. 2 Comments :

Shortly After Trump was banned from Twitter, before the Musk era, he launched his own social media website that was a direct ripoff of Twitter. His hysterically named “Truth” Social quickly became the dedicated propaganda platform for Trump’s ranting, insulting, lying, and shameless self-exaltations.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Stock Market

The Truth Social website was stuffed into a corporate grab bag that was christened as Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), and Trump hired former Republican congressman Devin Nunes to run it as its CEO.

In the four years since its launch Nunes, who had no relevant business experience whatsoever, proceeded to run the sham operation into the ground. He packaged it with a variety of unrelated undertakings, such as cryptocurrency, mutual funds, gambling, and even an attempt at AI that seemed to go rogue…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him

Now it is being reported that Nunes has been handed his walking papers. According to the New York Times…

“Trump’s social media company, which has consistently lost money and struggled with a flagging share price, announced Tuesday that it was replacing Devin Nunes as its chief executive officer. The announcement offered no reason for the sudden departure of Mr. Nunes.”

And that…

“Trump Media has incurred hundreds of millions in losses, and its shares have performed poorly since the company went public. […] Last year, Trump Media took in $3.7 million in revenue and recorded a $712 million net loss.”

Indeed, TMTG has performed abysmally. Its stock is down 90% from its high. The vast majority of investors were creamed. But Trump and few other insiders made out like bandits – literally! So as a tribute to Mr. Nunes, let’s review some of the history of the company that he presided over for Trump, whose own business history is littered with failures and bankruptcies…

Trump’s Cratering Truth Social Stock Reflects the Catastrophe of Everything That Trump Does
Trump Media and Technology Group Corp. plans to issue a new cryptocurrency, which will be distributed among its shareholders. […] The coins won’t represent ownership of DJT shares, and may not be transferable or exchanged for cash.

Trump’s Scammy Media Stock, and Truth Social Parent, Completes a Classic Pump and Dump
The merger of the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) with TAE Technologies, a nuclear fusion startup. TAE’s energy products are at present speculative and they have no facilities generating any power resources. Nevertheless, the news caused TMTG’s stock to surge 33%, but two weeks later reversed course back to around $12.80. So anyone who jumped in on the news is already suffering a 25% loss.

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump
Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then.

The Trump Media and Technology Group (Truth Social) Scam Reflects His Fondness for Fraud
During an interview on CNBC, Trump complained that he has been treated “very badly” by banks that he alleged were discriminating against him. Of course that might be because of the 34 felony convictions he has for defrauding banks. Not to mention a civil lawsuit finding of liability that cost him about half a billion dollars.

Trump Crime Syndicate: Investors Arrested for Insider Trading in Failing Truth Social Scam
Trump’s associates in his truthless, anti-social media venture were arrested and charged with insider trading. Reports indicate that “the three individuals together made more than $22 million in illegal profits.”

Truth Social Disease: Ads on Trump’s Twitter Ripoff are Mostly Scams and Trump-Fluffing Merch
Advertisers are afraid of their ads being juxtaposed with hate speech and other noxious content. Consequently, the only advertisers who are willing to shell out are sketchy scammers, conspiracy theorists, and junk peddlers.

UM…NOPE: Karoline Leavitt Tells Fox News ‘When Trump Says He’ll Do Something, He’ll Do It’

Posted by on April 21, 2026 at 2:06 pm. 1 Comments :

Before Donald Trump ran for president, he had a regular weekly segment on Fox News that was called “Mondays With Trump” wherein he phoned in an interview with the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends. It served as a promotional vehicle and free campaign ad from 2011 until he came down his golden escalator in 2015.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump and Karoline Leavitt

Today Trump continues to appear regularly on Fox News, his official Ministry of Propaganda. But that’s not all. His daughter-in-lawlessness, Lara Trump, has her own weekend show. His Cabinet members are on Fox’s air daily. And his Propaganda Secretary has a recurring spot on Sean Hannity’s program that he calls the “Hannity Washington Briefing” featuring Karoline Leavitt. From the start of Trump’s re-occupation of the White House, Leavitt has made Fox News her home away from home.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Anti-Press Secretary Talks More to Fox News than to Reporters in the White House

On Monday evening Leavitt was on duty with Hannity where she made some of her routinely ridiculous remarks intended to fluff her boss. She began by complaining about the media observing that “the United States is in a worse off position than we were at the start” of the Iran war. That’s objectively true considering that 13 American troops were killed, more than 400 injured, and thousands of Iranian civilians have died. What’s more, the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war, remains closed causing severe product shortages and price increases around the world.

But Leavitt was just getting started. She went on to invent a profile of Trump’s alleged leadership (huh?) and steadiness (whut?), saying that…

“Trump has been the steady leader our country needs throughout this entire endeavor and again, thanks to the success of this entire military operation and his hardline negotiating style, we’re on the brink of a deal. […]

“President Trump has proven before he does not bluff. When he makes a promise, he follows through on it. And I’m not sure why after 10 years of covering this president, the American media still cannot understand when President Trump says he’s going to do something, he’s going to do it.”

The ability to see leadership, and especially steadiness, in Trump requires a massive dose of cult programming. But more to the point, one thing that Trump is well known for is not doing what he says he’s going to do. It’s such a common flaw that it has its own acronym: TACO: Trump Always Chickens Out. And if you need some more proof, there’s this…

As for Trump’s war against Iran, he has claimed to be “on the brink of a deal” too many times to count. But no deal has emerged. To the contrary, the latest news is that the peace talks have completely broken down.

Even worse, Trump has promised to annihilate everyone in the country if their leaders didn’t submit to his demands. He threatened that “A whole civilization will die” if the Hormuz Strait weren’t opened. He also raged that they must “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell.” And yet, it seems that every other day Trump is either celebrating that an incredible deal has been reached, or is issuing new deranged threats.

If that is what Leavitt thinks is leadership and steadiness, I don’t ever want know what she thinks being weak and fickle are. Because to every other conscious observer the strength that Trump projects is the human personification of creamed corn.

Trump Blames Himself for His Iran War Fiasco, and Brags About Hate-Watching Lots of ‘FAKE NEWS’

Posted by on April 20, 2026 at 2:11 pm. 0 Comments :

When Donald Trump launched his war against Iran he promised that it would be won easily and quickly. He claimed to have achieved victory just a few hours after it began. Then he claimed victory again and again and again, every couple of days for the past seven weeks. And after each declaration he resumed offensive military operations against the country he claimed to have already defeated.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Trump baby with Iran map

Somehow Trump keeps prosecuting this war, and even escalating it to include more troop deployments and psychopathically genocidal threats against the civilian population of Iran, who he has said he is trying to liberate.

SEE THIS: Trump’s INSANE Threats and War Crimes Against Iran are Dismissed by His Acting Attorney General

In the process, Trump’s massive yet fragile ego was hurt by the analysis of Middle East experts who have concluded that he launched his war against Iran at the behest of Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, So Trump posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to deny that Netanyahu had anything to do with the decision to go to war, and was it was all Trump’s idea. But as usual, he expects everyone to just take his word for it, despite his rock solid reputation as a pathological liar. Trump raged that…

“Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did.”

So Trump is taking full responsibility for the fiasco in Iran. That’s big of him. But he wants people to believe that he started the war because of the terrorist attack in Israel on October 7, 2023, by Hamas. Trump’s story is that he is now leading the United States to retaliate against Iran for something that Hamas did three years ago to Israelis.

Therefore, the U.S. is just defending the interests of Israel, and Netanyahu had nothing to do with it? Too bad Trump won’t do that for Ukraine, where Russia has killed tens of thousands more innocent civilians. But then he would have to defy his idol and mentor, Vladimir Putin. That’s not gonna happen.

Trump, however. was just getting started. His post went on to complain about the free press who have been doing their job reporting on the war and Trump’s maze of explanations and excuses for it. According to Trump…

“I watch and read the FAKE NEWS Pundits and Polls in total disbelief. 90% of what they say are lies and made up stories, and the polls are rigged, much as the 2020 Presidential Election was rigged.”

REALLY? So Trump spends quite a bit of his time perusing the media that he holds in contempt and regularly maligns as “the enemy of the people.” And in his warped opinion the vast majority of what is reported (90%) “are lies and made up stories.” But he keeps watching and reading it anyway? He is particularly disturbed by the polls that currently show him in record low territory. Even his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News…

MORE HERE: UH-OH! Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

Despite the accuracy of the bleak reporting and dismal surveys, Trump continues trying to deceive Americans that the news is all good. He insists that “the results in Iran will be amazing” and that he will prevail with the help of “Iran’s new leaders (Regime Change!).” Never mind the new Ayatollah is the even more radical son of the old Ayatollah, and that the same Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is running the country.

No one knows how long these hostilities will continue. But it’s safe to say that Trump’s lies will persist for as long he presents some semblance of cognitive functionality. Which by all available indications, won’t be for very much longer.

FBI Director Kash Patel Tells Fox News He’s Filing a Lawsuit Over Allegations of His Drinking

Posted by on April 19, 2026 at 1:23 pm. 0 Comments :

The brief tenure of Kash Patel as Donald Trump’s FBI Director has failed to produce much of anything to brag about. He has humiliated himself and the Bureau with his inappropriate antics in office. Such as his drunken partying with members of the U.S. Olympic Hockey team. Or flying on government jets to see his girlfriend, a country-western singer, in concert.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Now Patel is taking on one of Trump’s most recognizable flaws. Throughout his career in both business and politics, Trump has demonstrated his affinity for lawsuits. He has made himself the most litigious president in the history of the United States. Although his legal misadventures usually don’t work out very well for him.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Lawsuit Against the Wall Street Journal for Reporting on Him and Epstein is Thrown Out

On Sunday morning’s episode of Maria Bartiromo’s program on Fox News, She invited Patel to come on to respond to some recent accusations of dangerously inappropriate behavior as reported in an extraordinarily well-sourced article in “The Atlantic.” Bartiromo began by asking Patel about the article. Which led to the following exchange…

Patel: Maria, I am happy to announce on your show that we are not going to take this laying down. You want to attack my character? Come at me. Bring it on. I’ll see you in court.
Bartiromo: So you’re gonna sue them?
Patel: Absolutely. It’s coming tomorrow
Bartiromo: Tomorrow you will be dropping a lawsuit against The Atlantic?
Patel: Yes I will. For defamation. And for – you know what Maria? – We have to fight back against the fake news…If the fake news Mafia wants to ring their drum beat as loud as they can, they’re never gonna stop me.

BARTIROMO: So you're gonna sue them?KASH PATEL: Absolutely. It's coming tomorrowBARTIROMO: Tomorrow you will be dropping a lawsuit against The Atlantic?PATEL: Yes I will. For defamation

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-04-19T14:35:10.407Z

REALLY? It’s good to know that America’s FBI boss is devoting his full attention to the things that matter most to the American people. His pursuit of criminals in the “fake news Mafia” will surely make people feel more safe in their homes and neighborhoods.

Patel is displaying the same sort of fragile ego for which his boss Trump is so well known. And of course, he’s only doing this to please Trump, who is disappointed that there haven’t been more arrests of his political enemies.

However, Patel isn’t helping himself or his reputation. Notice that he never actually denies any of the facts in The Atlantic’s story. What’s more, he’s going to be ripped to shreds during the discovery process if he actually files this lawsuit.

The author of The Atlantic’s article, Sarah Fitzpatrick, did a great job of putting together credible sources, including many from within the FBI. She wrote of Patel that…

“He is erratic, suspicious of others, and prone to jumping to conclusions before he has necessary evidence, according to the more than two dozen people I interviewed about Patel’s conduct, including current and former FBI officials, staff at law-enforcement and intelligence agencies, hospitality-industry workers, members of Congress, political operatives, lobbyists, and former advisers.” […]

“They said that the problems with his conduct go well beyond what has been previously known, and include both conspicuous inebriation and unexplained absences. His behavior has often alarmed officials at the FBI and the Department of Justice, even as he won support from the White House…Several officials told me that Patel’s drinking has been a recurring source of concern across the government.” […]

“On multiple occasions in the past year, members of his security detail had difficulty waking Patel because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to information supplied to Justice Department and White House officials.”

What we learn from The Atlantic’s story is that Trump’s Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, isn’t the only lush in the Trump administration. Patel is exposed as wholly unfit to serve according to his own staff and security detail. The article reveals the he frequently exhibits severe paranoia with regard to anyone who criticizes him or Trump; that he has led a purge of experienced FBI agents for failing to be sufficiently worshipful of Dear Leader; and that he has jeopardized investigations by publicly releasing information that had not been verified, and was later found to be false.

In other words, Patel is just as unqualified and incompetent as just about every other member of Trump’s Cabinet. And following the recent firings of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, and Attorney General Pam Bondi, it may be Patel who is next in line to hear Trump’s hokey catchphrase from his old reality TV game show, The Apprentice: “You’re fired!”

UPDATE: Patel kept his word and filed his loopy lawsuit against The Atlantic. As expected, there is no evidence of actual malice (a requirement for a legal finding of defamation) in Patel’s filing. The Atlantic acted responsibly, giving Patel opportunities prior to publication to rebut the allegations, and by securing and verifying multiple, credible sources. If this goes to discovery or court, Patel will come to regret it. It just reinforces and further publicizes the allegations against him.

Trump-Backed Media Merger Blocked By Federal Court, Ruling that it Would Violate Antitrust Laws

Posted by on April 18, 2026 at 2:11 pm. 1 Comments :

The consolidation of giant media conglomerates has produced a handful of monopolistic corporations that are mostly run by right-wing billionaires. Oligarchs like Rupert Murdoch and David Ellison wield enormous influence while sucking up to their White House benefactor, Donald Trump, for regulatory favors.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump

Among the recent mergers on the media’s calendar is one between two television station groups that each own dozens of stations nationwide. Nexstar and Tegna agreed to merge earlier this year after getting a rubber stamp approval by the Trump administration, with Trump’s personal assistance. It’s the sort of totalitarian domination that dictators like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un enjoy, and that Trump envies and seeks to emulate.

SEE THIS: Trump Brags About Getting Fascist Control of the Media in Bonkers Truth Social Post

However, the Nexstar-Tegna merger that Trump sought to steamroll into place has run into some turbulence. A group of state Attorneys General filed a lawsuit to quash the merger, and they have just received a favorable court ruling that stops it in its tracks. As reported by NPR…

“A federal judge has blocked local TV giant Nexstar’s takeover of a leading rival, Tegna, until an antitrust trial plays out. If Nexstar loses, it could be compelled to unwind the $6.2 billion deal, in which it absorbed 65 additional stations.”

NPR elaborated saying that if the merger were to go through, Nexstar would wind up owning…

“…265 local stations in 44 states and the District of Columbia, reaching 80% of the nation’s households. Those are all unprecedented figures. Federal competition law limits companies to less than half that level [39%].”

The prospect of yet another massive megalith controlling that much of the mediasphere is more than a little troubling to anyone who cherishes the free press. Particularly if the merger is in violation of the law. And there is no mistaking Nexstar’s political leanings. They were the first station group to take Jimmy Kimmel off the air after he made a couple of harmless jokes about news coverage of Charlie Kirk.

For his part, Trump weighed in on both sides of the merger debate. On November 23, 2025, he posted a comment expressing his opposition to the merger on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, saying “If this would also allow the Radical Left Networks to “enlarge,” I would not be happy…If anything, make them SMALLER!” But more recently, on February 7, 2026, he posted a supportive comment saying “We need more competition against THE ENEMY, the Fake News National TV Networks.”

Trump’s waffling on the merger is typical of his inability to form a coherent position on anything. He often just rides with whatever he was told last by one of his flunkies. In this case he also chose to fulfill the wishes of arch-conservative moguls who have funneled funds into his various scams.

Meanwhile, state AGs are also closely examining Paramount’s pending acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, which includes CNN. Hopefully that will be the next monopolistic mega-merger to collapse.

Herr Trump is Scared Witless of Jessica Tarlov and Demands that Fox News ‘GET HER OFF THE AIR!’

Posted by on April 17, 2026 at 2:25 pm. 0 Comments :

The fragile snowflake currently occupying the White House, Donald Trump, relentlessly demonstrates just how frightened he is of anyone who dares to disagree with him, or otherwise defy his MAGA-sty. There has never been a president who is more rattled by criticism, or who is so cowardly or wears the mantle of victimhood like a shield.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

Despite the present tribulations of the nation and the world, Trump remains laser focused on the issues that matter most to the American citizenry. Such as his fixation on how he is portrayed in the media that he regularly maligns as “the enemy of the people.” Never mind that his animosity toward the free press is so warped that it fails to connect with reality.

SEE THIS: Trump Desperately Clings to Wildly Adoring Polls, Doesn’t Mention They Only Polled His Supporters

On Friday morning Trump was performing what he thinks are the highest priority duties of a president: Pounding out childish rants on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. For the most part his hapless harangues consist of self-exaltations, vicious insults, and flagrant lies. And on this particular occasion, Trump hit the trifecta.

The bee in the crybaby’s bonnet this time was something he saw while watching his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. Jessica Tarlov, the sole liberal on Fox’s five member panel program, “The Five,” must have uttered something truthful which always outrages Trump. So he posted a comment saying that…

“I am watching one of the Least Attractive and Talented People on all of Television, Jessica Tarlov. Her voice is so grating and terrible, I had to ‘turn her off!’ Her Democrat soundbites are FAKE. She makes up ‘Poll Numbers,’ and nobody challenges her, because she is so boring. I have among the best Poll Numbers I have ever had, and why shouldn’t I, ALL THE COUNTRY DOES IS WIN. CNN had me at 100%, saying they never saw that before. GET HER OFF THE AIR, SHE IS BAD FOR OUR COUNTRY! I hear Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens are dying fast. Their numbers are terrible. Nobody believes them anymore. They were FAKE MAGA, and now they’ve been exposed! President DJT”

Trump is hate-watching Jessica Tarlov on Fox News and demanding that she be taken off the air. Because that's how President Snowflake spends his time.He's also exhibiting his dementia, claiming to have "the best poll numbers I've ever had." Even though he's at historically low levels.

Notice that the first thing that Trump feels compelled to address is his opinion about Tarlov’s appearance. That’s typical of Trump who is obsessed with the most shallow aspects of life and is intellectually and emotionally incapable of comprehending anything deeper.

Then Trump launches into his lies about Tarlov’s remarks that he says are “FAKE.” Specifically, he is referring to her reporting of his abysmal approval ratings that he says are “among the best Poll Numbers I have ever had.” That, of course, is the polar opposite of reality. In fact, his current polling is literally the worst of either of his two terms in office.

Trump then brags that “ALL THE COUNTRY DOES IS WIN.” Apparently Trump thinks that skyrocketing costs for everything from gas to groceries to healthcare, is winning. Not to mention that the U.S. is still at war with Iran. He adds to his bragging that a poll says that “CNN had me at 100%.” But he forgot to mention that it was a poll of only MAGA supporters, who represent a measly 24% of the electorate.

Flummoxed by Tarlov’s factual smackdown, Trump resorts to his habitual tendency to threaten and bully. So rather than offer a substantive rebuttal, Trump dishes out orders to Fox News to “GET HER OFF THE AIR.” Because he just can’t handle ever being exposed to negative news about himself. And he believes that he has the totalitarian authority to dictate what goes on the air and what doesn’t.

Finally, Trump takes some swings at some formerly faithful MAGA-tists, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens, who he now says “are dying fast.” Actually, they are just accepting that the tide is turning for Trump and his MAGA cult, so they are deserting the sinking ship. Trump was reacting to a CNN segment from a month ago wherein they compared the favorable ratings among Republicans only of Trump (61) to those of Tucker Carlson (7).

Trump: “Tucker is a Low IQ person – Always easy to beat, and highly overrated!!! So are Megyn Kelly, ‘Candace’ (Really Dumb and mentally ill!), and Bankrupt Alex Jones, who is completely‘fried.’”

Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens were some of the most fervent supporters of Trump. They defended him unflinchingly. They furiously attacked his critics. However, they have become disillusioned to some degree by his failure to keep his campaign promises to release the Epstein files, to refrain from starting any new wars, and his recent episodes of blasphemy. Consequently, Trump now regards them as “low IQ losers.” But it wasn’t always so for Trump. And CNN also did a piece on that…

Pete Hegseth Likens Trump to Jesus Performing Miracles, and the Media as Unpatriotic Pharisees

Posted by on April 16, 2026 at 1:58 pm. 1 Comments :

This week Donald Trump openly expressed his delusional vision of himself in a meme posted to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, as a Jesus-like figure using his divine healing powers to cure a bedridden man. It was a depiction so offensive that he was eventually persuaded to delete it.

Donald Trump Messiah

However, Trump’s meme deletion didn’t extend to his still flaming megalomania. He later posted another picture of himself with Jesus putting his arm around him, as if they had the same close friendship that Trump had with Jeffrey Epstein. Trump also lashed at out Pope Leo for daring to take a position against war and the killing of innocents. Then he sent his FCC chairman, Brendan Carr, out to deliver another punch to the Pope…

On Thursday morning, Trump’s Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, joined in the spiritual spat at a press conference on the Iran war to update the MAGA media hacks that Hegseth permits to attend these pseudo-news charades. At one point Hegseth interrupted himself to go on a bender about the media that he despises and can’t stop complaining about. He whined…

“To the American media, I just can’t help but notice the endless stream of garbage, the relentlessly negative coverage you cannot resist peddling, despite the historic and important success of this effort and the success of our troops. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what side some of you are actually on. It’s incredibly unpatriotic.”

It sounds like Hegseth spends way too much time watching television. And his viewing habits seem to consist mainly of hate-watching news programs that aren’t wholly worshipful of Trump. Plus, he seems to think that it is unpatriotic to report the truth and that the press is supposed to be uncritical of Dear Leader. Perhaps he would be more comfortable with the media in North Korea. But he was just getting started. He continued with a retelling of a biblical story that he allegedly heard in church on Sunday, saying that…

“Jesus entered a synagogue and healed a man with a withered hand. The Pharisees came to watch…they witnessed a literal miracle. It didn’t matter to them. They were only there to explain away the goodness in pursuit of their agenda…Our press are like these Pharisees.”

So in Hegseth’s mind Trump is Jesus, and his illegal war against Iran is a miracle of healing? Hegseth is using a biblical story to justify Trump’s massacre of Iranian civilians. And in the process he characterizes the media as unpatriotic hypocrites trying to destroy his messiah.

Hegseth isn’t helping to dismiss the implications of Trump posting that deranged meme of him as Jesus. And it’s awkward that he uses an analogy that features a man with a withered hand, considering the gross deformations of Trump’s hand.

It just proves that the messiah complex that Trump suffers from is spreading to his cult disciples. They all see him as an infallible prophet of the divine. He can do wrong. Never mind his multiple divorces, serial infidelity, adjudication as a rapist, affinity for pedophiles, dozens of sexual abuse victims, and myriad other immoralities including criminal fraud, and breach of constitutional laws.

All of that is forgiven because that’s what they do in cults. And Hegseth is desperately striving to be recognized as Trump’s most faithful devotee. To that end, Hegseth issued a warped biblical warning that had a familiar ring to it…
