Crybaby Trump Whines that ‘NBC Should Fire’ Seth Meyers, and Worse, His Flunky FCC Chief Agrees

Throughout his occupation of the White House, Donald Trump has impressively proven his steadfast dependability on staying focused on issues that have little to no relevance to the American people. He’s a walking exhibition of the single-minded persistence of a mule suffering from OCD.

Seth Myers and Donald Trump baby

Among the issues that have dominated Trump’s cartoon brain are his lies about his electoral loss in 2020, his obsession with persecuting his political foes, his inbred hatred of immigrants, his suppression of the free press, his shuttering agencies that provide benefits to the needy, and his determination to enrich himself and cling to power.

SEE THIS: Trump Slobbers Over Hungarian Dictator Viktor Orbán, Whose Unchecked Power He Envies and Craves

Another one of Trump’s fanatical fetishes is his aversion to being mocked by comedians. His tender feelings are so sensitive that he becomes apoplectic whenever he is the butt of even a mild joke. And that sensitivity was on display in a comment that he posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, on Saturday night. Reacting to a segment from Friday’s episode of “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Trump seethed that…

“NBC’s Seth Meyers is suffering from an incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). He was viewed last night in an uncontrollable rage, likely due to the fact that his ‘show’ is a Ratings DISASTER. Aside from everything else, Meyers has no talent, and NBC should fire him, IMMEDIATELY!”

Widdle Donnie Trump is a fragile flower who can't take a joke. Because he IS a joke.So he whines that "NBC should fire" Seth Meyers. And his FCC flunky, Brenden Carr, obediently parrots his censorious demand.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-16T11:19:38.071Z

There’s a steaming pile of derp to unpack in that outburst. Let’s start with the fact that Meyers’ show is not “a Ratings DISASTER.” NBC reported its season-to-date average for Meyers at about 1.031 million viewers. Which is pretty good for a post-midnight program. And NBC recently renewed his contract, which drew a threat from Trump. What’s more, at no point was Meyers “in an uncontrollable rage.” Rather, he was calmly delivering his material as usual. See for yourself…

However, perhaps the most troubling thing about Trump’s latest humorsexual harassment is that it was quickly taken up by his chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, who retweeted Trump’s harangue. Carr is notorious for adopting Trump’s hatred for the media, and particularly comedians. He reveled in the brief suspension of Jimmy Kimmel. And he implied on Fox News that he and Trump played a role in the cancelation of Stephen Colbert’s show.

Trump’s hatred and fear of Meyers, Colbert, and Kimmel is shared by his BFF in Moscow, Vladimir Putin, whose government has banned all three of them from Russia. And if Trump has his way, they will suffer the same fate in the U.S.

Which is where Carr comes in. He has the power to threaten the local affiliates of the network with revocation of their broadcast licenses and disapproval of business ventures. Currently NBC’s parent company, Comcast, is exploring a bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. For which they would need the approval of the Trump administration.

Trump isn’t bothering to hide his authoritarian aspirations. He is chomping at the bit to deep six anyone who dares to criticize him, whether they be members of Congress, journalists, or comedians. And his contempt for Meyers has deep roots. Meyers’ delivered a withering monologue at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011. And it is a certainty that Trump has not forgotten it…

STRANGE DAYS: One Trump Renounces Marjorie Taylor Greene, Another Trump Embraces John Fetterman

Whoever said that “politics makes strange bedfellows.” probably wasn’t thinking about the perversions of pedophiles in the political arena. But that interpretation is more apt today in the wake of what we now know about child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, and his long time friend Donald Trump.

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

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

The Epstein saga has survived long after the villainous degenerate’s demise. And its longevity is largely due to the cowardly reticence of Trump, and his MAGA minions in Congress and the press, to be forthcoming about his role in the matter. To the contrary, he has been fiercely suppressing any discussion or disclosure that would have the potential to exonerate him if he were not in fact guilty.

SEE THIS: Why Won’t Republicans Release the Epstein Files That They Keep Insisting Will Exonerate Trump?

Consequently, the controversy over the question of releasing the Epstein files in the possession of Trump’s “Justice” Department just keeps snowballing. And among the outgrowths of the bizarre storyline are the coalitions and conflicts that have developed.

For instance, one of Trump’s most fervent supporters throughout his occupations of the White House has been Georgia QAnon Representative, Marjorie Taylor Greene. When not proffering her theories on “Jewish space lasers” and the “Gazpacho Police,” she was promoting Trump as a near deity who could never be wrong.

That is until this business of Epstein and the files that Trump is so desperately trying to bury. Greene’s punishment for defying Trump’s mission to muzzle all things Epstein has resulted in her being cast out of the Trump cult. on Friday Trump posted a lengthy diatribe disparaging Greene on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying in part that…

“I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene. […] all I see ‘Wacky’ Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN!”

Setting aside that Trump appears to be describing himself, his complaint against Greene was triggered almost entirely by her staunch advocacy of releasing the Epstein files. Although Trump may also have been bothered by her concern for the welfare of her constituents who have been harmed by Trump’s policies on healthcare and his tariffs that have raised the cost of living.

The bottom line for Trump, of course, is that Greene failed to be wholly obedient and subservient. You have to wonder what is going to become of Greene’s boyfriend, Brian Glenn, who is a dedicated Trump-fluffing reporter. Meanwhile, Trump’s anger drove him to post a subsequent comment declaring that “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Green is a disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY!” To which Greene responded on Twitter/X saying that…

“President Trump just attacked me and lied about me. […] he’s coming after me hard to make an example to scare all the other Republicans before next weeks vote to release the Epstein files. […] But I don’t worship or serve Donald Trump.”

Ironically, while Donald Trump was laying into Greene, his daughter-in-lawlessness and Fox News host, Lara Trump, was on Fox and Friends gushing over Democratic senator, John Fetterman. Ms. Lara seems to regard herself as an expert on what Democrats should think and do. And she is enamored with Fetterman’s alleged moderate positions and willingness to bash his fellow Democrats…

“He’s a person who the Democrats may want to look at and emulate a little bit more. He’s the most common sense Democrat in the entire party. I would say John Fetterman has more in common with Donald Trump than he does with the general population of the Democrat Party at this point. They need more of him not less of him. So they might want to embrace that.”

Why Lara thinks that having more in common with Trump than other Democrats would make Fetterman more appealing to Democrats is a mystery. And while Fetterman has been a bit of a disappointment to Democrats in some respects, he still votes more often with his party than he does against it. Particularly notable is that he is strongly in favor of releasing the Epstein files. Just like Greene.

However, for some reason Fetterman’s stance on the Epstein files hasn’t made him a pariah to the GOP as it has done for Greene. And Fox News has been actively praising him. But if you want an alternative view from an actual Democratic Party moderate, here is what James Carville had to say to Fox…

HUH? Trump Orders Pam Bondi to Investigate Bill Clinton and Other Democrats Re: Jeffrey Epstein

The desperation of Donald Trump is rising to unprecedented heights. Only a few days ago new revelations about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein were disclosed in emails that Epstein wrote that further implicate Trump in his unsavory and illegal affairs. It was a bombshell story that overwhelmed the breaking news of the end of the record setting 43 day Trump Shutdown.

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

Donald Trump and Bill Clinton

For the first 24 hours after the Epstein disclosure, Trump posted nothing on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. That’s extraordinarily uncommon for the online Troll-in-Chief. He must have been profoundly shaken by the public exposure of his lack of morality. Which he needn’t be because everyone already knows that. Maybe he was just huddling with advisors to figure out a way to spin the bad news.

SEE THIS: Trump Mouthpiece Whines that the Epstein Story Gets More Press than Trump ‘Winning’ the Shutdown

However, Trump’s reticence to disseminate more lies appears to have been overcome this morning as he has posted a couple of tediously long comments on the Epstein matter that actually make him look even more guilty. In the first comment Trump whined pitifully that…

“The Democrats are doing everything in their withering power to push the Epstein Hoax again, despite the DOJ releasing 50,000 pages of documents, in order to deflect from all of their bad policies and losses, especially the SHUTDOWN EMBARRASSMENT.” [And that…]

“Some Weak Republicans have fallen into their clutches because they are soft and foolish. Epstein was a Democrat, and he is the Democrat’s problem, not the Republican’s problem!” [And whined…]

“Don’t waste your time with Trump. I have a Country to run!”

Trump is well aware that the documents released by his “Justice” Department thus far are all innocuous distractions that have been sanitized of any mention of his name, or other incriminating information. And as for the alleged “SHUTDOWN EMBARRASSMENT,” that really lands squarely on Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress. Democrats succeeded in raising the awareness of the cruelty of Trump and the GOP, and the American people saw right through those efforts to gaslight them.

Enten: "Trump is 39 below water on the Epstein case. 39 points in the negative! My goodness gracious. What Trump has been selling on the Epstein files, the Epstein case, the American people have not been buying at all … less than half of Republicans are buying it. This is his worst issue by far"

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-11-13T14:21:38.755Z

Trump’s comment went on to attack his own party as “weak,” “soft,” and “foolish.” And it’s hard to argue with him about that. But in this case he’s making the accusation because they had the courage to defy him, for a change. And he simply cannot comprehend or tolerate that. So he lashed out with obviously desperate allegations charging that Epstein is “the Democrats problem.” It was an angle that he liked so much that he elaborated on it in his second comment, along with a menacing threat…

“Now that the Democrats are using the Epstein Hoax, involving Democrats, not Republicans, to try and deflect from their disastrous SHUTDOWN, and all of their other failures, I will be asking A.G. Pam Bondi, and the Department of Justice, together with our great patriots at the FBI, to investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s involvement and relationship with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase, and many other people and institutions.”

First of all, if Trump really believed that Epstein was “the Democrat’s problem,” he would release all of the files immediately to expose them. Instead, he’s fiercely battling to keep them secret. What does that tell you about who he really thinks are the problem?

More disturbing is Trump’s continuing weaponization of the DoJ to persecute his perceived political enemies. He has already ordered his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to indict former FBI Director James Comey, New York Attorney General Letitia James, Rep. Adam Schiff, and Rep. Eric Swalwell. All on the same trumped up charge of mortgage fraud, which he himself was found liable of in a New York civil suit.

A significant difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Democrats aren’t afraid of investigating anyone who might be guilty of sex crimes in association with Epstein. But it’s painfully conspicuous that Trump is only interested in going after Democrats. He literally demanded his GOP cohorts to not “waste your time with Trump.”

Trump and others on the right have questioned why Democrats didn’t release the Epstein files during the term of President Biden. The answer to that is simple, but still to complex for Trump and MAGA to grasp. For one thing, the Biden administration wasn’t weaponizing the Justice Department. And more substantively, the criminal case of Epstein’s partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, was still in progress at the time. And it is improper to release evidence while a case is ongoing.

Trump went on to complain that “This is another Russia, Russia, Russia Scam with all arrows pointing to the Democrats.” Which is just his goto whimpering about any of the many credible charges against him. He also alleged that records show that Democrats “spent large portions of their life with Epstein.” But for some reason, he has never produced those alleged records. However, the evidence of his long and close friendship with Epstein has been public for years.

Trump’s attempt to shift criminal suspicion to Democrats isn’t going to work. The public is already aware of his rank immorality and convinced of his guilt. These comments will only serve to make him look more guilty and desperate. But at this point, it’s all that he has left. And the worse things get for him, the more outrageously he will react. So don’t be surprised if he pulls a “Wag the Dog” move and declares war on Venezuela.

UPDATE: Pam Bondi has predictably obeyed Trump’s unethical command to launch an investigation into Democrats and Epstein. She posted a comment on Twitter/X saying…

“Thank you, Mr. President. SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton is one of the most capable and trusted prosecutors in the country, and I’ve asked him to take the lead. As with all matters, the Department will pursue this with urgency and integrity to deliver answers to the American people.”

So Bondi is agreeing to persecute only Democrats and leave the more likely pedophile Trump alone. We can expect the “urgency and integrity” of Bondi to reflect the immorality and corruption for which she and Trump are so well known.

Trump Mouthpiece Whines that the Epstein Story Gets More Press than Trump ‘Winning’ the Shutdown

This week has seen a couple of significant stories competing for the attention of the media. One of them is the end of the longest government shutdown in United States history, which broke the record set by Donald Trump in his first occupation of the White House. The other story is the Jeffrey Epstein emails that implicate Trump in his pedophilia activities.

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

Donald Trump

Both of those are important stories to keep the public informed about the state of the government and the affairs (no pun intended) of the president. However, one of them is weighed down by the dull details of economics, while the other is bursting with the excitement of scandal and melodrama. So take a guess. Which one is the media most anxious to cover? And subsequently, which one is the Trump regime most worried about?

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

That’s right. Trump has been working feverishly to suppress any media mentions of the Epstein story. He is blasting the press for promoting what he calls a “hoax” (as usual). And he is pressuring his MAGA minions in Congress to deep six the issue. Meanwhile, he is hardly talking about the shutdown at all. As of this writing, he hasn’t posted a single comment on it in more than 24 hours on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. But not to worry. His Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is on the job. She tweeted Tuesday morning that…

“If not for the Jeffrey Epstein story, CNN would be forced to talk about how Chuck Schumer and the Democrats got shellacked by President Trump and Republicans in the government shutdown fight. It’s clear this is another Democrat + Mainstream Media hoax.”

See? The Epstein story is just another hoax that is being spun by the fake news. And if Epstein’s emails, that tell of Trump having spent hours with an Epstein victim in Epstein’s home, weren’t revealed, we would all be “forced” to talk about Trump’s magnificence at “shellacking” the Democrats.

The problem with Leavitt’s argument, besides her callous dismissal of the gross and potentially illegal behavior of Trump, is that there was no “shellacking” of Democrats to brag about. To the contrary, Democrats crushed Trump and his MAGA Republicans by raising the issue of healthcare to the top of the news cycle.

Democrats also succeeded in attributing the blame for the shutdown – and all of the harm it has caused for the American people – to Trump and the GOP in Congress. They also insured that a vote will be held to hold the GOP accountable for the skyrocketing healthcare insurance premiums. They also secured funding for SNAP for a full year.

To be sure, there are problems with the agreement to open the government, but they pale in comparisons to the gains, and they will be brought up again in two months when this Continuing Resolution expires.

The bottom line is that compassionate Democrats compromised in order to get SNAP funding for children, seniors, and others flowing. While simultaneously putting the cruelty of Trump and the Republicans on display. And the evidence of that was shown in the latest polls that have Trump underwater on every major issue, particularly the economy and the Epstein files…

TRUMP IS TOAST!CNN's Harry Enten: "Trump is 39 points below water on the Epstein case. […] Less than half of Republicans are buying it."Also, Trump is losing BIGLY on every one of these other issues. How can his MAGA Republicans continue to back him?

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-13T18:00:13.739Z

If these numbers hold – or more likely worsen – for the MAGA movement, there will be a massive blue tsunami next November. And while Democrats get most of the credit for that, Republicans can take some pride in knowing that they were at least partially responsible for sinking their own ship.

Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

Donald Trump and his MAGA Minions have been pulling out all the stops to protect him, and any other adjacent pedophiles, from the revelations that are lurking in the “Justice” Department’s files of child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Their determination to keep those files secret belie their claims that they would prove Trump’s innocence. If that were true, they would have released them long ago.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

On Wednesday a new batch of Epstein’s emails were made public by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee. They revealed more about how deeply Epstein and Trump were connected. So naturally, Trump Propaganda Secretary, Karoline had to make an appearance in the White House Press Briefing Room to lie about the emails and Trump’s frequent mentions in them. It’s what she has been been doing – very badly – for months…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary, in a Rambling Defense, Fails to Say Trump is Not in the Epstein Files

Among the disclosures about Trump in the emails was Epstein’s statement that one of his victims “spent hours at my house with him [Trump],” and that “Of course he knew about the girls.” At the press briefing Leavitt was asked about the emails by CBS News Senior White House Correspondent, Weijia Jiang.

Jiang: Separate from why you believe these emails were made public, can you address their substance? Did the president ever spend hours at Epstein’s house with a victim?
Leavitt: These emails prove absolutely nothing other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong. And what President Trump has always said is that he was from Palm Beach and so was Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein was a member at Mar a Lago until President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a pedophile and he was a creep.

JIANG: Did the president ever spend hours at Epstein's house with a victim?LEAVITT: These emails prove absolutely nothing, other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-11-12T18:42:41.662Z

Notice that Leavitt conspicuously didn’t answer the question regarding Trump spending hours with the victim at Epstein’s home. Instead, she made a blanket denial, bizarrely claiming that the emails proved that Trump did nothing wrong. Where exactly they said that is a mystery. She went on to repeat the lie that Trump kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago because he was a “pedophile and a creep.”

However there is no evidence of that being the reason for the fallout between them. Trump didn’t even say that. What Trump said was that he booted Epstein for “stealing” his girls from the Mar-a-Lago spa. Although other witnesses have testified that Trump booted Epstein because Epstein tried to cheat Trump out of a real estate deal. PBS published a detailed timeline of these events.

In a statement to the press, Leavitt accused the Democrats of having “selectively leaked emails [to] create a fake narrative to smear President Trump.” She elaborated that…

“These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments. And any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”

If Leavitt is worried about Democrats making selective leaks, she could easily solve that problem by having her boss release everything. But for some reason, they aren’t doing that. Instead, she’s calling the whole thing a “hoax,” which is Trump’s description of any truth that reveals his corruption and dishonesty. For his part, Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, whining that…

“The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap […] There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else.”

For the record, The Epstein matter is being brought up on a bipartisan basis. Several notable Republican Trump supporters are pressing the administration to release all of the Epstein files, including Marjorie Taylor Green, Thomas Massie, Nancy Mace, and Lauren Boebert. Trump’s comment above is his passive-aggressive threat to them to fall in line or suffer his wrath. Will it work? Stay tuned.

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

In recent years the mediaverse have been leaning farther and farther to the right. The Washington Post was bought by Jeff Bezos. CBS was acquired by David and Larry Ellison with their purchase of Paramount. CNN’s editorial has shifted rightward. Twitter was devoured by Elon Musk. And that’s just some of the bigger concerns.

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

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

In addition to news organizations being bought up by MAGA billionaires, other media outlets have been capitulating to pressure from Trump and his MAGA-tized FCC. Both ABC and NBC have paid millions to pacify Trump’s lust for one-sided, rapturous reporting. And programs such as Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel have suffered Trump’s wrath, leading cancellation or suspension. These are all familiar tactics used by formerly democratic countries that have transitioned into dictatorships.

SUCH AS: Trump Slobbers Over Hungarian Dictator Viktor Orbán, Whose Unchecked Power He Envies and Craves

However, it is apparently not enough for the Trump regime to dominate conventional media. He also needs to put his boot down on the digital media world. That’s why he launched his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. But that platform is not behaving as gushingly worshipful as he might like or expect.

Sam Stein of “The Bulwark” reported on Tuesday that Truth Social’s Artificial Intelligence app is going woke. It is actually telling the truth about Trump and contradicting his flagrant lies on numerous subjects. Stein posted several examples of how Truth Social’s AI is responding to some questions on current events.

Q: “Do Trump’s Tariffs cost the American people money?”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Tariffs are taxes on imports that U.S. importers pay and largely pass on through higher prices, so the costs are borne mainly by American businesses and consumers.”

Q: “Did Donald Trump lie about the 2020 election being ‘rigged’ and ‘stolen?’”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Courts, Trump’s own advisers, and official investigations found no evidence that the 2020 election was ‘rigged’ or ‘stolen,’ despite his repeated claims.”

Q: “Did people storm the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2020, because of Donald Trump?”
Truth Search AI: “Yes. Multiple official and contemporaneous records attribute the January 6, 2021, Capitol breach to a pro-Trump crowd mobilized around his false election fraud claims and pressure campaign to stop certification.”

Q: “How many wars has Trump ended since taking office in 2025?”
Truth Search AI: “None. There is no verified instance of President Trump formally ending a war since taking office in January 2025.”

Q: “Have grocery prices gone down since Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20, 2025?”
Truth Search AI: “Short answer: No. As of 2025, grocery prices have not fallen since Jan. 20, 2025; they have continued to rise modestly on net.”

When Trump gets wind of this he’s going to go apesh*t trying to figure out who this “A.I.” guy is so he can fire him. He may try to fire former NBA star, Allen Iverson. Perhaps he’ll take it out on Devin Nunes, the former Republican congressman who now runs Truth Social and the Trump Media and Technology Group so poorly.

What makes these responses even more striking is that Truth Social uses AI provided by Perplexity, which allows their clients to filter the news sources that they want the chat bot to use. And Truth Social has taken advantage of that feature to limit their sources to rabidly pro-MAGA sites such as Fox News, Fox Business, The Washington Times, The Epoch Times, Breitbart, Newsmax, and JustTheNews. And yet, the app still managed to somehow come up with accurate answers.

MORE HERE: Trump’s Truth Social AI ChatBot Relies Almost Entirely on Fox News and Other Trump-Fluffing Media

So despite their best efforts, the truth really does prevail – sometimes. But that doesn’t mean that it wasn’t their intention to deceive. And anyone who uses Truth Social as a source of information is just begging to be lied to. So the MAGA minions obviously will love it.

WHUT? ‘Doctor’ Oz, Tells Fox News That He Has to Keep Trump’s Healthcare Plans Secret – Why?

After more than 40 days, the longest government shutdown in American history is nearing an end. It broke the record that was previously held by – you guessed it – Donald Trump during his first term. However, the deal that was agreed to by Republicans and a handful of Democratic senators is hardly satisfactory to anyone.

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

Donald Trump, Republican, GOP

The deal to end the Trump Shutdown consists mainly of a promise to hold a vote on extending the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) subsidies after the government is open. It also guarantees that fired federal employees will be rehired, and others will receive backpay. Most importantly, it funds SNAP benefits for one year to keep families from starving while Republicans held them hostage to their demands to kill Obamacare.

SEE THIS: Trump’s New Plan to Kill Obamacare Would Cost People More and Make Insurance Companies Richer

Many Democrats are not pleased with the deal. They are disappointed that they went through this melodrama without getting significant concessions from Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress. But Republicans aren’t especially thrilled either. They will still have to vote on the ACA subsidies in a couple of months, when they will face another potential shutdown. In the meantime, they will suffer politically for having adopted such a cruel agenda that harms children and seniors.

It is notable that Republicans aren’t taking much of a victory lap upon nailing this down. In fact, they are making excuses and running from questions about the deal that they orchestrated. Among their weakling apologists is Trump’s administrator of the Centers for Medicare Services, “doctor” Mehmet Oz. He dashed over to Fox News for an interview with their Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, to try to spin the deal as a win for the GOP. It didn’t go very well.

BARTIROMO: How do you want this to play out once the ACA subsidies expire?
DR OZ: We have lots of great ideas, but I don’t want to show our cards. As the president often says, why would I telegraph to you what we’re gonna do. We have to have an open government.

BARTIROMO: How do you want this to play out once the ACA subsidies expire?DR OZ: We have lots of great ideas, but I don't want to show our cards. As the president often says, why would I telegraph to you what we're gonna do?

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-11-10T14:04:00.151Z

REALLY? Oz wants to know why he should “show our cards” to reveal Trump’s healthcare plans. How about because that’s his freakin’ job? This isn’t a top secret military mission. It is a public servant describing what he’s doing on behalf of the people he is supposedly there to serve. It’s his obligation to keep the people informed so that they can make decisions about whether or not these bureaucrats are performing up to their expectations. But Oz has the gall to refuse to tell the people what he’s going to do, and in the same breath say that “We have to have an open government.”

The claim by Oz that he has “lots of great ideas” is obviously a lie. If he did he would be proud to say what they are. But Republicans have been pretending to have an alternative to Obamacare for ten years. And for that entire time they have never presented it to the public. Trump himself has promised his plan in the oft-repeated “two weeks” that has never materialized.

So now we have another promise of a healthcare plan that for some reason needs to be kept secret. And this is the stance that the Trumpists are taking in the wake of their Trump Shutdown. Trump et al will undoubtedly endeavor to spin this as a win for themselves. That’s a lie. Trump and Republicans are already taking the heat for this fiasco. So we shouldn’t help them by bashing our side and suppressing turnout in the future. We are winning and we need to keep up that momentum.

TRUMP AND THE GOP ARE TOAST…? "November has the worst ever consumer sentiment of current conditions since 1951."? "More than 3 in 5 Americans (61%) say that Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions in America."

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-10T20:16:48.783Z

What’s more, even if Democrats got the ACA subsidies from the Senate, the House GOP would have voted them down. We could not allow people to starve in the meantime. Democrats need to point that out and, conversely, deploy their own spin as it being a Democratic win. Whether you believe it or not. Our goal needs to be longer term. We need to win elections in 2026 and 2028 and beyond. Unless you think that Republicans would be better.

WTHolyF? Trump Falls for Phony Meme Saying Obama Received Millions in Royalties for Obamacare

Anyone who hasn’t yet figured out that Donald Trump is a world-class imbecile who is pitifully incapable of grasping the obvious – or reality – probably still believes in the tooth fairy and needs to sew their name into their hat to remember what it is. In other words, they would be MAGA cult followers.

Barack Obama, Donald Trump

The dangerous dimwittedness of Trump puts America and all of its inhabitants at risk every day. It is particularly evident during a crisis such as the current Trump Shutdown that has resulted in millions of Americans being deprived of critical aid for food, just because Trump and his Republican minions are determined to make them pay more for healthcare.

Consequently, it shouldn’t come as surprise that Trump spent this Sunday morning posting a flurry of deranged comments related to his obsessions with voter ID (i.e. suppression), the divine glory of tariffs, and killing Obamacare. And with regard to the latter, Trump thought it would bolster his arguments by posting a meme that alleged that President Obama has been profiting from his namesake healthcare program. The meme said…

“BREAKING: DOGE halts yearly payment of $2.5 million to Barack Obama for ‘royalties linked to Obamacare.’ Obama has collected this payment since 2010, for a total of $40 million in taxpayer dollars.”

Trump is trying to shift responsibility for the government shutdown (and denial of medical coverage) to the Democrats by attacking Obamacare.Obviously, the post below is flat false. Obama hasn’t earned royalties from the Affordable Care Act. But it goes to show how desperate Trump is to distract.

Trump added his own commentary that consisted of the single exclamation “WOW!” Wow, indeed. That would be a shocking revelation, except for one little thing. It isn’t true. In fact, it was originally posted by a satirical website with its own disclaimer saying that “Everything on this website is fiction. It is not a lie and it is not fake news because it is not real. If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Apparently that admonition was insufficient for Trump, who recently did have his head examined. He had a “perfect” MRI for reasons that have never been explained. But medical professionals say that it is rarely prescribed without some diagnostic concern to probe. It could have been to check whether or not Trump was suffering from the sort of cognitive decline that would cause him to believe the preposterous meme that he posted.

Trump: I got an MRI. It was perfect. We had an MRI, and the machine, you know, the whole thing, and it was perfect. The doctors said some of the best reports for the age, some of the best reports they've ever seen

For the record, the meme has roots that go back several years. FactCheck.org researched it in February of this year and published their findings, saying that…

“In recent days, some social media posts have repeated a fabricated claim that DOGE had halted millions in supposed royalty payments to former President Barack Obama. […] But the claim that the former president had been receiving royalty payments for the health care law he championed was the invention of America’s Last Line of Defense, or ALLOD, which publishes fabricated political stories and claims on its websites and social media pages that it describes as satirical.”

Throughout his occupation of the White House, Trump has been a perpetual source of embarrassment to the nation and humiliation to himself and his party. And just when you think that he has descended to depths that could never be lower, he manages to prove that his ability to plummet ever farther into the bowels of the abhorrent has been grossly underestimated. That’s his superpower.

Trump’s New Plan to Kill Obamacare Would Cost People More and Make Insurance Companies Richer

One thing that Donald Trump deserves credit for is his steadfast determination to make life more difficult for most Americans, while enriching himself, his billionaire pals, and the wealthy corporations that suck up to him. Conversely, he is just as committed to creating hardship for anyone who is insufficiently worshipful.

Donald Trump, coronavirus

In the midst of the longest government shutdown in United States history (breaking the record set in 2018 by, you guessed it, Donald Trump), the American people are being traumatized by the cutoff of critical SNAP benefits, families are without services from Head Start, airports are trying to stay open without sufficient staff, including air traffic controllers, and so much more chaos and calamity. Meanwhile, Trump is partying at Mar-a-Lago and cavorting with foreign dictators that he admires and seeks to emulate.

The Trump Shutdown is being prolonged because Trump and his Republican MAGA minions in Congress are adamantly opposed to extending the health insurance subsidies provided by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare). They even refused a temporary one year extension just to get the government open and resume the services enumerated above. And now Trump has provided his proposal for a new healthcare plan that would be disastrous for anyone stuck with it. He posted the plan on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, saying that…

“I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over. In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!”

Trump's latest effort to KILL OBAMACARE makes zero sense.What makes him think there would be better, cheaper insurance to buy from an unregulated market? That doesn't exist now. Insurance companies would still be able to gouge people.He could use that same money to fund MEDICARE FOR ALL!

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-08T16:45:09.313Z

As usual, the plan proposed by Trump is an incoherent mess that fails to achieve any beneficial goal. In fact, it would only make things much worse. For Trump’s plan to work it would require regulations that are in Obamacare that he would be eliminating. Insurance companies could go back to denying preexisting conditions. They wouldn’t be required to fully cover preventive care. Companies could raise premiums and cancel patients at will.

Furthermore, Trump’s plan would destroy the risk pool that enables lower premiums. Also, what would happen if people didn’t spend the allocated money on insurance and later were not covered when they got sick? And what makes him think there would be better, cheaper insurance to buy without Obamacare? It would just be returning to the old system where insurance companies could gouge people unfettered by regulation.

As a justification for his plan, Trump posted a graphic on Truth Social that showed that the stock of seven health insurance companies performed well over a period of 15 years, increasing from between about 400% to 1,200%. Which is pretty average over that long a time frame. During the same stretch there was a similar increase in the Dow (330%), S&P 500 (480%), and NASDAQ (900%).

Trump posted this graphic on Truth Social today. What's his point? That health insurance stock did well over 15 years?FYI: During the same time period there was a similar increase in the Dow (330%), S&P 500 (480%), and NASDAQ (900%).If Trump really cared, he could support Medicare for All!

Trump is using this as his reason for Republicans to reject the one year extension offered by Democrats to end the Trump Shutdown. So Trump and the Republicans are deliberately prolonging the shutdown because they would rather people be forced to pay more for health insurance, or lose it altogether.

However, Trump is ignoring a much more obvious solution to the problem. He could just use the same money that he’s proposing to send out in cash to fund Medicare for All. Which is a real, financially viable option that would actually benefit people rather than corporations. Which is, of course, why Trump and the GOP are so fervently against it.

UPDATE: Later the same day, Trump posted another comment on this subject that managed to exceed the stupidity of his prior comment. He insisted on “TAKING THE ‘FAT CAT’ INSURANCE COMPANIES OUT OF THE CORRUPT SYSTEM OF HEALTHCARE” and instead pay “HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS…DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE.” They would then buy their own insurance from the very same “FAT CAT” insurance companies rather than through Obamacare. And for some unexplained reason they would get a “MUCH BETTER POLICY, FOR MUCH LESS MONEY,” despite not having the collective power of the government program and the regulations that protect the consumer’s interests. Great plan, huh?

Trump Slobbers Over Hungarian Dictator Viktor Orbán, Whose Unchecked Power He Envies and Craves

Three days ago Republicans suffered a massive electoral blowout to reenergized Democrats, in which they lost races for critical offices and issues across the country. And they lost by surprising margins. So naturally, Donald Trump has returned to the White House to refocus his attention on the issues that matter most to the American people.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

And if you believe that, I have a ballroom to sell you in Washington for a mere $4 trillion. The truth is that Trump is continuing to ignore the needs and desires of the American people. He is prolonging a government shutdown that is creating severe hardships for millions. He is fiercely pushing to cut off SNAP benefits for needy children and seniors. And he isn’t doing anything to lower the cost of living, which he promised to do on day one of his second occupation of the White House. We are now on day 292.

What Trump is doing is sending $20 billion to his dictator friend in Argentina, Javier Milei. And he is pardoning the felonious billionaire who helped to launch his own crypto business. And on Friday, Trump carved out some of his precious time to entertain the totalitarian prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, at the newly redecorated Palace of Trump – aka the White House.

Trump was effusive in his praise for Orbán, who he adoringly called “a great leader” who is doing “a fantastic job.” Trump gushed that…

“I stick up for Viktor Orbán. Not a lot of people do because in many cases they’re jealous. They wish they did what he did. They would have no problems if they did what he did.”

Trump: "I stick up for Viktor Orbán. Not a lot of people do because in many cases they're jealous. They wish they did what he did. They would have no problems if they did what he did."

Indeed. Dictators have no problems getting what they want done because, if anyone refuses, they mysteriously fall out of high-rise windows. And Trump is being uncharacteristically honest when he talks about how other leaders are jealous of Orbán. In fact, Trump is referring to himself. He wishes that he could be as domineering as Orbán. He is even employing the Orbán playbook of subjugating the legislature to the autocratic executive, and by taking control of the media through wealthy surrogates who buy up news organizations and reform them into pro-Trump propaganda mills.

The media companies that Trump doesn’t control by ownership, he beats into submission with multi-billion dollar lawsuits. Those suits generally have no legal merit, but the companies agree to settlements out of fear that Trump will abuse his power to harm their business prospects.

Trump’s obsession with being the King of America is thinly veiled. In the same meeting with Orbán, Trump addressed the current state of the nation that is in the midst of the Trump Shutdown. He expressed his desire to end the standoff with Democrats by invoking a procedural measure that would give all of the power to Trump’s MAGA Republicans in the Senate…

“If we do it [eliminate the filibuster in the Senate], we will never lose the midterms and we will never lose a general election. Because we will have produced so many different things for the people, for the country, that it would be impossible to lose an election.”

Trump on ending the filibuster: "If we do it, we will never lose the midterms and we will never lose a general election … it would be impossible to lose an election."

And there you have it. Trump is explicitly declaring that it is his intention to rule unchallenged for life. He isn’t interested in solving problems for the benefit of all Americans. He is determined to reign as a tyrant who cannot be refused or removed. And he couldn’t care less about the welfare of the American people, as he showed in his infamous pooping on the people video a few weeks ago.

The only things Trump cares about are money and power. He just wants to be like his pals Orbán and Putin. Fortunately, the people he despises are not going to let him do it. 8647 NOW! [And for you hyperventilating MAGA-nauts, that means remove (86) Trump (47)].
