Trump Celebrates the Commission of Fine Arts (All Trump Toadies) Approving His Vanity Ballroom

Posted by on February 19, 2026 at 1:03 pm. 0 Comments :

From the beginning of Donald Trump’s second occupation of the White House, he has made it a priority to correct one of the most consequential “mistakes” of his first term. Rather than pretending to appoint people with at least a modicum of relevant experience, he has made certain this time to hire only the most slobbering sycophantic cronies who would shamelessly kiss his…let’s say ring, and shower him with fake trophies and awards.

Donald Trump

That’s why Trump’s Cabinet and White House staff are now comprised solely of glassy-eyed cult followers who exalt Dear Leader as the Messiah of MAGA. They refrain from ever wavering even modestly from whatever ludicrous and/or dangerous initiative that he adopts. They praise him adoringly at staged meetings. Even with all of that up-sucking, he still winds up sleeping through it. And many of his cronies came directly from his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires

On Thursday morning Trump was compelled to post a celebratory comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, expressing his delight that he got a unanimous vote approving his golden ballroom that he’s building as a tribute to his ego in the ruins of the White House East Wing that he illegally demolished. He gushed that…

“The Commission of Fine Arts just approved, unanimously, 6 to 0, with one recusal because he had a conflict in that he worked professionally on the job, the White House Ballroom. Great accolades were paid to the building’s beauty and scale. Thank you to the members of the Commission! President DJT”

What Trump doesn’t bother to mention is that the Commission is populated entirely by his own appointees. Back in October of 2025, Trump fired every member of the Commission to replace them with his own loyal minions. Is anyone surprised that they all voted to support his vanity project? for the record…

October 29, 2025: “The White House has fired six members of the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, the independent federal agency that advises the president and Congress on design plans for monuments, memorials, coins and federal buildings. The seven member commission is made up of experts in architecture, art, urban and landscape design. Since its creation in 1910, the commission has reviewed plans for everything from Arlington National Cemetery to Maya Lin’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial.”

February 19, 2026: “The U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, a panel made up of President Donald Trump’s appointees, on Thursday approved his proposal to build a ballroom larger than the White House itself where the East Wing once stood.” […] “The National Trust for Historic Preservation has sued in federal court to halt construction of the ballroom. A court decision in the case is pending.”

Trump’s behavior with regard to the Commission is consistent with his prior behavior to honor himself by renaming Washington institutions, such as the Institute for Peace and the Kennedy Center, after himself. He is also floating more such conceited rebranding, including Dulles International Airport and New York’s Penn Station. And he has already launched Trump Accounts, Trump Visas, and TrumpRX.

These are the extraordinarily vainglorious acts of a malignant narcissist. They make a totalitarian tyrant like North Korea’s Kim Jong Un blush. But to Trump it’s all in a day’s worship. Which explains why he also just hung a massive banner on the Justice Department building declaring that it is no longer an independent agency of law, but the personal firm of defense attorneys for Trump as he battles, among other things, charges of pedophilia emanating from the Epstein files.

Trump is pissing on the Department of "Justice" headquarters to mark his territory.This is North Korea style autocracy.

REALLY? Trump Just Posted a 5 Year Old Video of 2020 Election Lies that Got OAN Sued for Millions

Posted by on February 18, 2026 at 12:50 pm. 0 Comments :

How desperate is Donald Trump to deflect from his unsavory relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and the files that he is working so hard to suppress? Desperate enough to post long ago debunked lies that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

Early Wednesday morning Trump was busy avoiding any of the actual duties of a legitimate national leader by posting self-serving comments to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. It’s a daily ritual of the ridiculous as Trump unloads an endless stream of absurdity, anger, and whining, that he seems to believe make him look strong. Poor baby has a lot on his mind…

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

One particular post by Trump vividly displays just how worried he is about the faltering state of his presidency, his historically depressed approval ratings, and the dismal prospects for his crumbling MAGA movement in the upcoming midterm elections. While he has never let go of his obsession with having lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, Trump posted a comment that reaches a pathetic new low, even for him. The post said in part that…

“In the 2020 election, states using Dominion voting machines allegedly switched 435,000 votes from Trump to Biden and deleted 2.7 MILLION Trump votes. […] The mainstream media, Dominion, ES&S, and many Democrats lied about voting machines.”

Trump just posted this 5 year old OAN video alleging that the 2020 election was stolen.OAN was sued for defamation over these lies. They cost Fox News $787 million.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-18T20:29:43.992Z

Trump’s post links to a video from One America News Network (OAN). They were sued by Dominion Voting Systems for their lies that Dominion conspired to rig the election. They are the same lies that Fox News ended up paying a settlement to Dominion for 3/4 of a billion dollars.

OAN has already settled a defamation suit brought by a former Dominion executive in 2023, as well as a defamation suit brought by Smartmatic, another voting-tech company, in April 2024. But it has not reached a settlement with Dominion Voting Systems itself.

Nevertheless, this is what Trump saw fit to present to his cult disciples this morning. It’s essentially the same message that he tweeted five years ago…

Trump is going to be sorely disappointed that this scheme doesn’t distract people from his accountability for his Epstein affiliation. This won’t work any better than his threats to Greenland, his persecution of Democrats in Congress, or his efforts to aggrandize himself by renaming the Kennedy Center. To the contrary, it will only remind people of his corruption and dishonesty. So the best response to him now is simply, “Please proceed, Mr. Trump”

NICE WORK CBS! Banning the Steven Colbert Interview with James Talarico, Got Them Way More Views

Posted by on February 17, 2026 at 1:09 pm. 0 Comments :

He’s at it again! Wannabe dictator Donald Trump has dictated to his Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to further erode the protections of the Constitution’s First Amendment for freedom of the press. It is just his latest attempt to shape the media into the propaganda arm of his Reich House operation.

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

Stephen Colbert & Trump Baby

Three weeks ago Trump’s crony FCC chairman, Brendan Carr, announced that he was considering a plan to alter the long-standing rules regarding “Equal Time” on television. It was a blatant attempt to put an end to criticism of Trump from TV talk show hosts and their guests. Since the Equal Time rules were implemented there have been exceptions for newsworthy interviews on both news and entertainment programs. But Trump’s childish and emotional insecurity has resulted in his seeking to stifle his critics by any means necessary.

SEE THIS: Trump’s FCC Threatens to Change ‘Equal Time’ Rules to Suppress the Free Speech of Trump Critics

On Monday night’s episode of “Late Night with Stephen Colbert,” Colbert revealed that the executives at CBS had prohibited him from airing an interview with James Talarico, a Democratic Senate candidate from Texas. However, Colbert, whose number one show has already been canceled and will end it’s ten year long run in May, was not taking this censorship quietly. He delivered a smackdown of CBS and the FCC that was both troubling and hilarious. What follows are some choice excerpts followed by the video…

“You know who is not one of my guests tonight? That’s Texas State Representative James Talarico. He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network’s lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast. I was told, in some uncertain terms, that not only could I not have him on, I could not mention me not having him on. And because my network clearly does not want us to talk about this, let’s talk about this. […]

“Carr said he was thinking about dropping the exception for talk shows because he said some of them were motivated by partisan purposes. Well, sir, you’re chairman of the FCC. So, FCC YOU! Because I think you are motivated by partisan purposes yourself.” […]

“[Trump] wants to silence anyone who says anything bad about Trump on TV because all Trump does is watch TV. He’s like a toddler with too much screen time. He gets cranky and then drops a load in his diapers. So, it’s no surprise that two of the people most affected by this threat are me and my friend Jimmy Kimmel.”

After Colbert’s righteous rant, he told the audience that, while the network would not allow him to broadcast the Talarico interview, there was nothing stopping him from posting it on his YouTube page. And therefore…

There is, however, a surprisingly happy ending to this story. The goal of CBS and their masters in the Trump regime was to stifle any and all voices who were less than worshipful of Dear Leader Trump. But the result of their censorship was to drive more people to this interview than would otherwise have even heard that it existed. Note the numbers…

For Colbert’s FCC rant…

  • YouTube: 2.3 Million views (Update: 3.3 million)
  • Facebook: 2.8 million views (Update: 3.8 million)

For Colbert’s James Talarico interview…

  • YouTube: 2.6 Million views (Update: 5.6 million)
  • Facebook: 1.8 million views. (Update: 3.0 million)

Millions more views were racked up on other social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. In total, it was far more than the average audience for Colbert’s show, which in early February of 2026 was about 2.3 million viewers nightly.

So CBS, at the urging of the Trump regime, has succeeded in helping Colbert and Talarico to draw a much bigger audience than they would have if there were no improper government interference. So thanks for that.

Although, it is still outrageously unacceptable for the government to interfere at all. And particularly in such a partisan manner wherein they deliberately put pressure on late night talk shows that have been critical of Trump, while openly admitting that conservative talk radio would not be subject to similar muzzling.

The American people are not going to stand for this sort of censorship and tyranny. And the more that Trump and his comrades try to force it down our throats, the more they will lose and bury their own electoral prospects in the upcoming midterms and beyond.

UPDATE: CBS issued a memo disputing Stephen Colbert’s account of how the FCC pressured the network to spike the James Talarico interview. But they only made matters worse.

Disgraced CBS News Is Intent On Keeping a Known Jeffrey Epstein Associate On Its News Team

Posted by on February 16, 2026 at 1:46 pm. 0 Comments :

One of the core missions of Donald Trump in his second occupation of the White House has been the total subjugation of the free press. He has assaulted it with retributive prosecutions, meritless lawsuits, and always infantile insults aimed at honest journalists (mostly women) who had the audacity to report the truth about him.

Donald Trump on CBS News (See BS)

Sadly, Trump has had some success in that brazenly fascist undertaking due to the cowardice and/or complicity of some the big media conglomerates who feared Trump’s retribution or who were feebly seeking favor from the corrupt and self-serving Trump regime. Their subservience has been evident in their groveling concessions to settle ludicrous legal disputes by paying millions of dollars in phony damages – aka bribes. And none has more obviously knelt down to Herr Trump than the toadies at Paramount.

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

Now CBS has embarked on a new and more insidious scandal involving a sleazy “doctor,” Peter Attia, with known ties to child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, that he admits. CBS is owned by Paramount, which in turn is owned by Trump’s buddy and fellow billionaire, Larry Ellison. His corporate monolith is now seeking, via a hostile stock bid, to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, which owns, among other things, CNN. Trump has already given his blessing to that proposed merger, despite the fact that Warner has accepted an offer from Netflix. Perhaps that’s because Ellison promised to make changes that Trump wants.

Shortly after Ellison merged his company with Skydance Media, owned by his son, David, they installed the notoriously right-wing blogger, Bari Weiss, to run CBS News, even though she had zero experience or qualifications to assume that position. Her brief tenure has already seen her make some abhorrent decisions, including censoring CBS’ 60 Minutes by nixing a segment on the El Salvador torture camp that Trump has been sending migrants to.

A few weeks ago Weiss announced that she was going to hire a bunch of MAGA-tized cronies from her Internet website to join CBS News. Among them was the disreputable “doctor” Attia. But that announcement was quickly marred by a revelation that ought to have doomed his appointment. According to The Guardian…

“Two weeks after a trove of files revealed extensive – and inappropriate – communications between Jeffrey Epstein and a recently named CBS News contributor, the longevity expert Peter Attia, the network appears to have settled on keeping him. […] Attia is one of the 19 on-air contributors that editor-in-chief Bari Weiss said she was ‘so excited’ to announce.” […]

“[O]n 30 January, the justice department’s release of millions of documents showed that Attia had expressed a fondness for Epstein and used extremely graphic language in at least one email to him. That Attia had met with Epstein was previously known before CBS News hired him.”

Attia’s name appears in the Epstein files more than 1,800 times. His emails to Epstein express his unsettling affection for him, as well as his creepy concern that he “can’t tell a soul” about their unsavory friendship. He also recalls that he felt “spoiled after staying in your great place.” And yet, Attia defended the relationship saying that “I was not involved in any criminal activity.” Nevertheless, he went on to say that “I apologize and regret putting myself in a position where emails, some of them embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible, are now public.”

Notice that Attia is defending what he just called indefensible. And it appears that the only problem he has with any of it is that it became public. How Weiss and the Ellisons can continue to justify the hiring of this slimeball is incomprehensible. But it is consistent with the immorality that is the hallmark of the Era of Trump and the aversion to ethics that Trump represents and for which he is the role model of indecency. So Attia will fit right in.

UPDATE: Trump Hasn’t Updated His Much Ballyhooed White House Media Bias Web Page in Months

Posted by on February 15, 2026 at 2:16 pm. 0 Comments :

Nothing has been a bigger priority for Donald Trump during his occupation of the White House than denigrating the free press and taking aggressive actions to suppress it. He relentlessly insults any journalist with the courage to report the truth about him (especially women), and he works tirelessly to promote the Trump-fluffing media that adoringly exalts him no matter how humiliating or dangerous his actions are.

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

Donald Trump and Media - ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, FOX

Late last year Trump directed his White House Internet team to create and post a web page that he said would expose the bias in the media. Of course, in Trump’s mind that meant only what he considered to be bias. Consequently, Trump’s media bias web page focused solely on news organizations that accurately documented his words and deeds, which invariably reflected negatively on him.

SEE THIS: The Trump White House Website Now Has a Page to Attack Media that Tells the Truth About Him

At the time that Trump’s media bias page was launched, it featured as it’s first target an article about the six members of Congress who appeared in a video wherein they reminded those in the military of their sworn duty to not comply with illegal orders. That resulted in the Trump regime seeking to prosecute them for sedition, with Trump saying that their alleged crime was “punishable by death.”

Trump’s efforts to assassinate sitting members of Congress for advocating following the law were recently foiled by a grand jury that rejected the attempt to indict them. But that has not deterred the Trump regime from it’s campaign to revoke the First Amendment. Now they are going after independent journalist, Don Lemon.

Meanwhile, Trump’s media bias web page moved on from the “illegal orders” story to one wherein they caught a gaffe by CNN’s Jake Tapper. He prematurely reported on December 4th that a suspect in the Washington, D.C. pipe bomb case was White. When more details became available, Tapper corrected the story. However, the White House media bias web page has not been updated since then.

So Trump’s media bias web page has been dormant for over two months. Never mind the fanfare with which they announced it. It now appears to have been abandoned. Which is typical of the Trump regime’s notoriety for incompetence. The web site seems to share with Trump a profoundly short attention span.

No American president has had as hostile an attitude toward the media as Trump. He routinely refers to the press in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.” He displays his rancid animus toward honest journalism in his knee-jerk and meritless lawsuits and his infantile insults. His vicious attacks on reporters as “creeps,” “stupid,” and “ugly,” are the price paid for daring to report honestly. The problem is that it’s also the sign of an emerging autocracy.

Donald Trump has launched a "Media Bias" web page on the White House website. And guess what?

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-30T19:38:16.480Z

The good news is that Trump will soon forget all about whatever imagined offense he is fixated on at any given time as soon as some other shiny object is waved in front of his face. And while that may be good news for the victims of his demented anger, that sort of dementia is a frighteningly horrible trait in a national leader.

Trump Posts a Petty and Protracted Treatise on Truth Social About Bill Maher and – Wasting Time?

Posted by on February 14, 2026 at 2:01 pm. 0 Comments :

Donald Trump has just completed the first year of his second occupation of the White House. And now that the congressional midterm elections are approaching, this might be a good time to review what he and his MAGA Republican comrades have done in that year. Let’s begin where Trump began, with Congress passing his so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that was a gift basket for his wealthy friends, but increased the national debt by record amounts.

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

Donald Trump, Wah

Moving on, there was Trump’s idiotic imposition of inflationary that cost American businesses and consumers billions of dollars. And then there was Trump’s attack on Venezuela, where he anointed himself “acting president.” And then there were the U.S. institutions (i.e. the Smithsonian, the Agency for Global Media, the Institute of Peace, the Kennedy Center, etc.) that he either decimated or renamed for himself. And then there were the invasions of American cities by ICE’s StormTrumpers who terrorized American citizens, killing at least two them. And let’s not forget that he’s building a golden ballroom on the property where he demolished the East Wing of the White House. All of that should endear him to the American people, right? RIGHT?

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

On Saturday morning Trump took to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to unleash yet another load of explosive diarhetoric. And true to form, it was a rambling disgorgement of lies and nonsense that can only make one wonder when the guys with butterfly nets are gonna show up. This new unburdening was truly something to behold. So…

TRUMP: "Sometimes in life you waste time."Other times you post insane 500 word tirades on wasting time. #25thAmendmentNOW!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-14T19:22:43.881Z

That’s right. Trump is complaining that “Sometimes in life you waste time!” That’s the same guy who spent his time in the White House for the past year on the vital national priorities noted above. Not to mention his staged Cabinet/sycophant meetings, his obsessive TV hate-watching, his golfing, etc. This particular time wasting was a 500 word diatribe about a dinner with comedian Bill Maher. To which America is responding with a hearty “Who the F**K cares?”

Of course, since Trump is incapable of focusing on a single subject for longer than a house fly will sit on a bread crumb, he littered the rant with some well worn lies about his alleged accomplishments, before retreating back to his familiar whining about comedians who dare to mock him. Seriously…Has any national leader ever been so egocentric, thin-skinned, and infantile?

Trump says that he was upset with Maher not appreciating his alleged “joke” that China would “terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup.” Except that Trump posted that comment without any indication that he didn’t mean it. Just like his comments about taking over Greenland, and abolishing windmills because they drive whales crazy and cause cancer. Trump often claims to have been joking after his ludicrous comments prove to be too embarrassing to defend.

There is also the possibility that Trump was triggered by another bit on Maher’s show where he featured a bunch of “MAGA Baby Shower Gifts.” Such as…

“…a onesie that reads, ‘not an anchor baby’…a doll that cries liberal tears…a baby mobile with the faces of the cast of Fox and Friends…baby’s first blanket pardon…Stroller nuts…a baby monitor that alerts you when your child is woke…autism-free Tylenol…the Venezuelan boat bath toy…a diaper that reads, don’t blame Trump, this is Biden’s mess.”

Trump also made a point of maligning Maher as being “no different than Kimmel, Fallon, or Colbert,” and having such low ratings that “nobody will learn about his various Fake News statements about me.” Except for every one of his cult followers who read this schizoid post on Truth Social.

Trump closed with a typical accusation that Maher suffers from “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” Which is a diagnosis that more accurately describes a condition that Trump and his cult disciples suffer from.

CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

Posted by on February 13, 2026 at 2:37 pm. 0 Comments :

The debilitating psychosis of Donald Trump is going to be studied by historians and psychiatrists for decades to come. He has been remotely diagnosed by knowledgeable professionals as a malignant narcissist, whose acute sociopathy and egocentrism combine for a potent mental elixir of dysfunction that poses profound risks for the nation and the world.

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

Joe Biden, Donald Trump

Every motivation of Trump is driven by just a few triggering events: insatiable greed, lust for power, seething vengeance, and consuming fear. That makes for a highly combustible personality who would blithely sacrifice the welfare of a perceived foe, or an entire nation, in order to get what he believes, in his twisted mind, is rightfully due to him. For instance…

SEE THIS: Trump to Americans Whose Lives Are at Risk By His Repealing Pollution Regs: ‘Don’t Worry About It’

Whenever Trump is exposed to some news that sparks his psychotic episodes, he is likely to go off like an out of control pyrotechnical display. He is a Roman Candle waiting to veer off course and set the whole neighborhood ablaze. That fuse can be lit by someone criticizing him for any of the fiascos he is responsible for on a daily basis, by a politician casting a contrary vote to his atrocious agenda, or by a disobedient truth making its way into the public’s awareness via the free press that he despises.

Among the many things that might trigger a Trump tantrum is any suggestion that he isn’t a gift to mankind from god. And he is particularly disturbed if he is ranked below any of his innumerable archenemies. Consequently, he is not going be take it well if he happens to see the results of a series of polls, all taken after Trump has been back in office for a full year, comparing him to his nemesis, former President Joe Biden…

  • Harris Poll: Trump is doing a worse job than Biden – 51-49%
  • Rasmussen Poll: Biden was a better president than Trump – 48-40%
  • The Economist/YouGov Poll: Trump is doing a worse job that Biden – 46-40%

Trump isn't gonna like this…America Prefers President Biden to Crybaby Trump!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-13T20:22:02.005Z

There is firm agreement in these diverse polls. The results of the Rasmussen poll are especially notable considering that it is a notoriously biased pollster in favor of Trump and the Republican Party.

Many other polls surveying Trump’s approval are similarly bad news for him. The RealClear Politics poll of polls has Trump down by double digits, with an average approval ranking of 42.2% and disapproval at 55.1%. Among the five most recent polls, his best showing is still a negative 47% (by another Rasmussen survey), and he goes as low as 36%.

The one conclusion that can be drawn from this is that, in technical terms, TRUMP IS TOAST! And if he sees these polls – which is doubtful because his toadies will be too scared to show him – he is likely to have an aneurism. Or worse, he’ll nuke Greenland. Hopefully his handlers/nurses will keep him under control.

Trump to Americans Whose Lives Are at Risk By His Repealing Pollution Regs: ‘Don’t Worry About It’

Posted by on February 12, 2026 at 1:59 pm. 1 Comments :

The determination of Donald Trump to foul the Earth with fossil fuel pollution on behalf of the oil and coal oligarchs who funnel donations (aka bribes) to him, has been a staple of his political agenda from his earliest days in politics. Even prior to that, Trump was opposed to environmental regulations that were imposed on his real estate properties.

Donald Trump Climate Change

Consequently, no one should be surprised by Trump’s latest efforts to give the toxic energy industry moguls their money’s worth. Never mind what it costs the inhabitants of the planet who will suffer more severe health consequences and natural disasters. Trump’s painfully stupid perspectives on the issue take precedence over science and compassion.

SEE THIS: Trump Declares that ‘The Days of Stupidity Are Over’ in a Stupid Anti Wind and Solar Energy Rant

On Thursday Trump announced that he is ordering his administration to repeal the endangerment findings that have been a part of the nation’s environmental policies since 2009. As reported by PBS…

“The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the president to roll back climate regulations. The rule finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency rescinds a 2009 government declaration known as the endangerment finding that determined that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare.”

The scientific community has affirmed that greenhouse gases are a primary cause of climate pattern disruptions that can exacerbate storms and extreme weather leading to increased destruction, injury, and fatalities. Likewise, it causes many health problems that lead to much higher rates of illness and death. But Trump couldn’t care less about any of that. It isn’t likely to impact him in the few years that he has remaining. So when he was asked about the impact on the American people, he replied just as you might expect someone with zero concern for anyone but himself…

Question: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a cost to public health and the environment based on science?
Trump: I tell them don’t worry about it. Because it has nothing to do with public health. This was all a scam. A giant scam. This was a ripoff of the country by Obama and Biden…They’ll have more money to spend for healthcare.

Q: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a host to public health and the environment based on science?TRUMP: I tell them don't worry about it. This was all a scam. They'll have more money to spend for healthcare.

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-12T19:01:40.852Z

Oh. OK! Just don’t worry about it, you pansies. After all, it’s all a big scam. And naturally it’s the fault of Presidents Obama and Biden. Trump has previously claimed that it’s a scam by China. Anyway, you’ll have more money to spend on healthcare. Which, of course, is a lie. But humoring his alleged logic, he’s saying that when you or your family do contract serious illnesses, you’ll be able to pay at least part of your doctor bills. That should provide you with some comfort, doesn’t it?

Trump’s proposed repeal of the endangerment regulations will surely face some pushback by states in the courts. California Gove. Gavin Newsom has already made a strong statement in that regard…

“This decision betrays the American people and cements the Republican Party’s status as the pro-pollution party. If this reckless decision survives legal challenges, it will lead to more deadly wildfires, more extreme heat deaths, more climate-driven floods and droughts, and greater threats to communities nationwide — all while the EPA dismisses the overwhelming science that has protected public health for decades.”

“Donald Trump may put corporate greed ahead of communities and families, but California will not stand by — we will sue to challenge this illegal action, and we will continue fighting climate pollution here in our state. We will continue to lead because the lives and livelihoods of our people depend on it.”

Trump has a historically abysmal record of success in court on matters like these. And his arguments for this case are just as bad as those of the other cases he has lost in humiliating fashion. Let’s hope that his streak of failure continues. for the sake of of everyone that shares this planet.

WOW! Jessica Tarlov Calls Jesse Watters a Fascist on Fox News, and He Doesn’t Deny It

Posted by on February 11, 2026 at 2:09 pm. 0 Comments :

The United States is currently undergoing what may be the most dangerous period of its historically brief experiment in democracy. The second occupation of the White House by aspiring authoritarian Donald Trump is proving to be a case study in how dictators take over free nations.

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

Jesse Watters, Fox News

Trump is using the playbook provided for him by the tyrannical despots that have preceded him. It’s a step-by-step instruction manual that lays out the process of undermining liberty and replacing it with oppression. Those steps include converting the military into a personal security force to protect the leader and persecute his enemies, suppressing the rights of free citizens to vote and engage in peaceful dissent, and clamping down on the free press in order to prohibit criticism and disseminate propaganda.

Trump’s official Ministry of Propaganda, aka Fox News, remains the primary distribution center for Trump-fluffing bullshittery. And at the top of the list of slobbering sycophants is Jesse Watters, a co-host of Fox’s “The Five,” a program named for it’s four glassy-eyed MAGA cultists and one lonely liberal.

On that program on Tuesday Watters told a story that he seemed to think would present him in a sympathetic light. It didn’t. He expressed his shock at the way he was treated by a passerby near his home. But then he was surprised by the response from the one liberal co-host on the program, Jessica Tarlov…

Watters: I was walking today, in my neighborhood, on my street. This car comes throttling down and he looks me right in the eye. He was already angry and he sees me and I give him a wave. Cause a neighbor I thought. And all of a sudden he passes me, screeches on the brakes, rolls down the window and says, ‘F U fascist.’ In my neighborhood. I swear to god this happened this afternoon. And I’m thinking to myself, he doesn’t know I’m a fascist!
Tarlov: Yes, he does. You’re on TV.
Watters: Do I come across as a fascist?
Tarlov: Yes!

WHOA!!! On Fox News Jessica Tarlov just called her co-host Jesse Watters a fascist. And Watters didn't deny it. ??

Jessica Tarlov deserves credit for telling it like it is. She endures a great deal of abuse on that program as her rightist co-hosts constantly belittle and talk over her. But this time she managed to get some truth out and expose Watters to his face, and on his own show.

Still, you have to wonder why Watters was surprised. He seems like someone who would be used to being yelled at for being a fascist. However, in the retelling of this incident, Watters complains about the encounter saying that “He doesn’t know I’m a fascist.” To which Tarlov set him straight by pointing out that everybody knows. After all, he’s on TV everyday proving it.

What’s particularly notable about this exchange is that Watters doesn’t deny that he’s a fascist. In fact, his retort was not “Hey, I’m not a fascist.” It was “He doesn’t know I’m a fascist?” That’s how you phrase it when someone correctly assumes something about you, but you didn’t think other people could tell. For instance, if someone complimented your hairpiece, you might say “How does he know I’m wearing a toupee?”

So Watters is essentially confirming that he’s a fascist. Not that an objective person wouldn’t already know that. He always defends Trump’s most fascistic activities. Including deploying troops into American cities to suppress protesters, conducting regime change invasions of foreign countries, ordering his “Justice” Department to prosecute political foes, firing government lawyers and other civil servants who were not sufficiently worshipful of Trump, threatening the media with meritless lawsuits and even criminal actions, and Watters has been unreservedly supportive of Trump’s agenda of overt bigotry on the basis of race, gender, religion, and nation of origin.

So, yeah…Watters is a fascist. It really isn’t a very well kept secret. And Tarlov was right to point it out. Sadly, many Fox News viewers won’t care. But that’s only because they are fascists too.

Trump’s Truth Social is Littered with Loathsome Lies – Now Including a Fake JFK Jr

Posted by on February 10, 2026 at 3:18 pm. 0 Comments :

The dedicated propaganda platform that Donald Trump built, hilariously named “Truth” Social, was designed from the start to disseminate his putrid perspective of life in his warped vision of America. The website has always been gushing with flagrant falsehoods aimed at cultivating the devotion of his misguided cult disciples.

Donald Trump, Toilet, Bathrobe

The determination of Trump to construct a fantasy world wherein he is the singularly successful and infallible messiah for a cadre of pseudo-patriots is the paramount goal of the MAGA movement. They are clan of misfits who are obsessed with finding innocent people to blame for all of their hardships. And Trump provides them the emotional ammunition to wage that war. All the while propping himself up on pedestal made of pure delusion.

SEE THIS: Reality TV President Trump Brags He is the Most Transparent Prez Ever. Real Reality Disagrees

Among the recent examples of the Trump Derangement Syndrome that he suffers from is the following ridiculous post that Trump made to Truth Social on Tuesday morning. It’s a sorry statement of just how distant he is from anything resembling mental stability. The post is allegedly a re-posting of a tweet by John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. It said in part that “[Trump] has been talking about how to make America great for decades.” And that he is “A true man of principle.”

Of course, JFK Jr. died in a plane crash twenty-five years ago. There is nothing in the tweet that identifies it as a fake. In fact, the profile for the account says that it is “John F. Kennedy Jr. Son of a President. Lawyer. Publisher of George. Voice for truth, unity, and justice. Living bridge between the Kennedy legacy.” However, it also says that it was created in November of 2025. Apparently it wasn’t enough for Trump to tarnish the memory of the Kennedys by renaming the Kennedy Center for himself. He also needs to steal the identity of family.

Obviously the ghost of JFK Jr. did not return to launch a Twitter/X account a couple of months ago. Nor would he have done so with a flurry of ludicrous tweets exalting Trump and a variety of crazy QAnon conspiracy theories. Although a few years ago JFK Jr. was the subject of some nonsense QAnon theories that he was still alive and would be joining a Trump ticket for the White House.

That’s the level of madness that Trump is exhibiting now. And it is on top of his other displays of madness. Such as wanting to take over Greenland, imposing inflationary tariffs around the world, anointing himself the acting president of Venezuela, and deploying ICE StormTrumpers into American cities.

There is a lot more of that flaming bullshittery on Truth Social every day. No wonder the company that operates it, Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT), is a financial basket case that has lost 64% of its value in the past year. And that’s just for starters. What follows are some of the problems that have plagued Trump’s media business…

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.
