Trump Reveals His Midterm Election Theme: ‘If The Communists Get In You’ll Never Fish Again’

Posted by on July 2, 2026 at 4:04 pm. 1 Comments :

The prospects for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections continue to improve as their candidates outperform Republicans, even in red state primaries. It’s clear that the American people are sick and tired of Donald Trump’s failures, lies, vanities, and senile outbursts.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

Meanwhile, Republicans are facing the almost certain loss of the majority in the House of Representatives, and a likely similar loss in the Senate. The GOP response to these dire predictions has been to double and triple down on extremist hyperbole that diverges entirely from anything that matters to voters, and from reality itself.

SEE THIS: BE AFRAID! Trump’s Propaganda Secretary Warns Fox News About Imaginary Marxist Democrats

The whole of Trump’s MAGA Party is following his lead in trying to malign Democrats as communists. Never mind that they have no rational basis for that charge. It is just more of their explosive diarhetorica that they are dispensing out of pure desperation.

Naturally, Trump is taking the lead in this reprise of the “red scare” attacks that failed so miserably in the 1950s. To that end Trump posted a hysterical comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that illustrates his devotion to dredging up tactics that didn’t work 75 years ago. His comment began by announcing that…

“Today I am declaring a National Scallops Day to celebrate an action taken by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that will open up the Northern Edge of Georges Bank to Scallops Fishing, fulfilling the dream to our Great Fishermen who were so badly treated by the Obama and Biden Administrations, and by the Country of Canada.”

FINALLY! Someone is doing something about the horror that Democrats imposed by depriving citizens of their god-given supply of marine mollusks, and “fulfilling the dream” of American fishermen. Trump bragged that, in order to do this, he “terminated” the environmental monument status of sensitive waters on both U.S. coasts, saying that…

“I have opened up the Oceans, Rivers, Lakes, and Seas to our Fishermen, and freed them from ridiculous Environmental restrictions that allowed other countries to take advantage of the United States’ Waters under Barack Hussein Obuma, Sleepy Joe Biden, and the Dumocrats.”

Following that display of childish name-calling, Trump revealed in all caps what may become his rallying cry for the remainder of the midterm election campaign season…

“GO OUT AND VOTE REPUBLICAN IN THE MIDTERMS, BECAUSE IF THE COMMUNISTS GET IN, YOU’LL NEVER FISH AGAIN!”

HOLY SHIH TZU! Trump is accusing Democrats of plotting to prohibit all fishing forever. And to his cabal of MAGA disciples, that is a totally reasonable accusation of something they are eagerly ready to believe that Democrats will actually do.

Yet Somehow the MAGA-tists haven’t realized that it is their Dear Leader who is the aspiring communist. He is the one who is implementing communist-like control over the “means of production” by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government, and defunding public media such as PBS, NPR, and Radio Free America. He has even sued media conglomerates for billions of dollars, forcing them to either pay up or suffer his retribution.

Communist leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un are drooling with admiration and envy. But while Democrats and most other patriotic Americans are appalled, from a strictly political perspective they are pretty excited. Because the more that Trump and his GOP confederates focus on this sort of red baiting idiocy, the better chances Democrats will have of victories in November. So go for it, Donald. We’ll see you at your next impeachment hearing.

UPDATE: For good measure, Trump is now bragging that “I would be the greatest communist in history. I’d be right up there with Lenin.”

Wannabe Dictator Trump Resorts to Threatening People to Respect Him or ‘You’re Going to Have a Problem’

Posted by on June 27, 2026 at 2:55 pm. 0 Comments :

From the day that Donald Trump rode his golden escalator down into the bowels of American politics, he has openly expressed his cravings for a monarchal reign of unchallenged power. It’s what drove him to incite an insurrection when his first occupation of the White House came to an inglorious end. And it’s why he has such contempt for the Constitution and its restraints on the presidency.

Donald Trump Walking the Plank

Nevertheless, the authoritarian aspirations of Trump keep emerging in increasingly extreme displays of desperation as his approval ratings sink ever deeper into an abyss. And the deeper he sinks, the more pronounced his delusions of popularity become.

SEE THIS: Delusional Donald: Does Trump Really Believe He’s Ultra Popular with Record High Approval Ratings?

This week Trump launched his “Freedom 250” celebration of himself, disguised in part as an event associated with Independence Day. Unfortunately for him, his party has been a humiliating bust with a sparse turnout for pitifully dull exhibits and attractions. It was so bad that Trump had to beg his cult disciples to show up to prevent him from looking like the loser that he is.

So it should come as no surprise that Trump is suffering an acute case of anxiety triggered by his malignant narcissism that is likely covering up his suppressed low self-esteem. Deep down he likely knows just how despised he is by broad majorities of the American people, and he can’t handle it. So he employs projection to deflect his insecurities onto others. This was evident during a speech he gave to the ultra right-wing, Christian nationalist “Faith and Freedom Coalition” where he said that…

“You have to respect the president. If you don’t respect the president, you’re going to have a problem.”

Trump threatens "You have to respect the president. If you don't respect the president, you're going to have a problem."OK! So let's give Trump the same respect he gave President Obama and President Biden.Snark aside, you only have have to respect a president who's earned it. Trump hasn't.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-27T08:54:17.968Z

Leave it to Trump to devolve a desire for respect into a threat. He doesn’t detail what sort of problem you’ll have if you fail to be sufficiently respectful to him, but it’s likely to involve detention in one of his many new concentration camps. And never mind that his threat is unlawful and grotesquely anti-American. Respect for the president in a constitutional democracy is earned, not forced. He’s mistaking America for North Korea.

Furthermore, Trump is hardly the right person to advocate for presidential respect. He is the same guy who badgered President Obama for years as a stupid, racist, Muslim from Kenya. And he promoted a disgustingly racist video depicting the Obamas as apes. When confronted with it he refused to apologize saying that “I didn’t make a mistake.” And Trump just posted this today…

President Obama recently noted that he "has a suite" in Trump's head. So Trump confirmed it by posting this on his Truth(less) (Anti)Social.But I fixed it by adding the update at the bottom.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-27T18:41:29.202Z

Trump also displayed his disrespect for President Biden, calling him “Sleepy Joe,” and repeatedly asserting that he is so cognitively impaired that “he doesn’t even know he’s alive.” Which is more projection from Trump who can’t stay awake during his own Cabinet meetings. And of course it is something less than respectful to incite a violent insurrection in an attempt to overturn the results of the election that Biden won. Six years later Trump is still claiming, without a shred of evidence, that he didn’t lose the 2020 election.

Trump will have another opportunity to demonstrate his respect for the president shortly after the election in 2028. Or perhaps sooner if there is any justice. But his threats to get respect for himself are going to fail as badly as his “Freedom 250” festival. That ship has sailed. You can’t restore respect after losing an illegal war with Iran, wrecking the U.S. economy, alienating America’s allies, fouling the environment, fraudulently enriching yourself, lying pathologically, and trying to silence the free press.

Delusional Donald: Does Trump Really Believe He’s Ultra Popular with Record High Approval Ratings?

Posted by on June 26, 2026 at 2:08 pm. 3 Comments :

Managing the erratic moods of Donald Trump Trump must be a full time job for a staff of White House nursemaids and babysitters. Particularly while his failures are being revealed in ever increasing frequency and severity.

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

In recent days Trump’s illegal war against Iran has devolved into a cesspool of acrimony and retaliatory threats, while Trump claimed he had just successfully negotiated a deal for peace. And speaking of cesspools, Trump’s “renovation” of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool continues to be more reflective of a sewage swamp.

SEE THIS: Fox News Reflecting Pool ‘Media Frenzy’ Story Features Trump as ‘MUSHROOM DICK MESSIAH’

Furthermore, Trump’s mismanagement of the economy has resulted in higher inflation and rising costs for everything from gas, to groceries, to housing, to healthcare, and more. Consequently, it should come as no surprise that Trump’s approval ratings are in the toilet. Which makes it all the more bizarre that he seems to think that he’s riding a wave of massive popularity.

On Friday morning Trump posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, “bragging” about having found a poll that “accurately” measures how universally beloved he is. He claims, without providing a source, that he has approval ratings of “65% and more.” In the post he linked to an article by the rightist rag Newsmax, that cited a poll putting him at only 50%. And that one was done by the notoriously biased, right-wing pollster McLaughlin. And even that was ridiculously inflated. See CNN’s poll of polls average placing Trump at an abysmal 37% approval.

This sort of lying about his perceived fabulousness is patently Trumpian behavior. However, it’s difficult to tell whether he actually believes this obvious bullpucky, or if he is just so determined to avoid telling the painful truth that he doesn’t care how apparent his lies are. If it advances his efforts to deceive his gullible cult disciples, he’s all in.

Clinging to rabidly partisan pollsters, and manufacturing other numbers that exist only in his rapidly putrefying brain, is typically Trump. Just two days ago he posted a comment that said simply (and firmly in all caps) that “MY REAL POLL NUMBERS ARE THE HIGHEST THEY HAVE EVER BEEN. THANK YOU!!!” As usual, he didn’t bother to include a link to any poll confirming that claim. He just expects his devotees to believe whatever he says. Because that’s how cults work.

Trump’s vision of himself as a messianic figure continued on Friday with a speech to the “Faith and Freedom Coalition.” It was a speech crammed with theocratic crackpottery that reeked of political biases, religious bigotry, and incitements to violence. It also included something that Trump framed as a joke. But it was the sort of joke that Trump tells when he’s expressing his true feelings, but doesn’t want to take heat for it. He whined that…

“Our Founders invoked the Creator four times in the Declaration of Independence. Four times. I wasn’t mentioned once. I’m very upset. Not once.”

Trump: "Our Founders invoked the Creator four times in the Declaration of Independence. Four times. I wasn't mentioned once. I'm very upset. Not once."

UH-OH: Trump Admits that His Phony ‘Save America Act’ is Really Meant to Rig Elections for MAGA

Posted by on June 24, 2026 at 2:49 pm. 0 Comments :

The recent primary elections in New York are further evidence that Donald Trump and his MAGA cult movement are are failing badly and losing at the polls. The American people are primed for an epic Blue Wave Blowout in November when Trump and the Republican Party will learn just how much they are despised.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

In anticipation of that electoral trouncing, Trump has been frantically lobbying his GOP comrades in the Senate to terminate the filibuster so that they can stuff his so-called “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) down the throats of voters across the nation who are staunchly opposed to it. Even most GOP senators oppose that. But that hasn’t deterred Trump from dispensing impotent threats…

SEE THIS: IN A PANIC Trump Threatens GOP to Pass His Anti-Voting Act, Because His ‘Reasons’ Are Pure BS

So what’s a wannabe dictator to do? Well, Trump is so obsessed with getting his voter suppression bill passed that he’s resorting to inadvertently telling the truth about it. During a morning press gaggle Trump had the following exchange with a reporter…

Question: Buying a home is unattainable for so many Americans. Is this election legislation more important to you than resolving the housing crisis?
Trump: Every election is important. We’re doing very well. They want a lot of communists to come in. I’m saying it a little bit differently, but the people that they’re pushing are communists. And this country is not going to have Communists.

Setting aside Trump's preposterous ranting about imaginary communists, he is now admitting that his "Save America Act" (aka Voter Suppression Act) is NOT really about voter integrity or ID, but it's about changing the outcome of elections to the MAGA-tists in his cult.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-24T18:07:37.081Z

Notice that Trump didn’t come close to answering the question about the comparable relevance of his voting bill to resolving the crisis in housing costs. That’s at least partly because he couldn’t care less about the problems of real people when measured against his fixation on retaining and enhancing his authoritarian power.

To drive that point home, Trump canceled a scheduled press conference and is refusing to sign a bipartisan Housing bill that would actually benefit many Americans in order to bully Republicans into passing his anti-constitutional Voter Suppression Act. He posted on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social that…

“Today’s Housing News Conference and Signing is hereby cancelled until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT, which I consider to be a National Emergency. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT”

Trump is so SCARED of LOSING BIGLY in the upcoming midterm elections, that he is blocking a bill that will actually help the struggling American people in order to bully Republicans into passing his anti-constitutional Save America Act – aka Voter Suppression Act.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-24T17:38:53.920Z

Instead of responding to the question, Trump ranted incoherently about [gasp] “communists” taking over the country. Of course, he has no idea what communism is. He just uses the word as an all-purpose pejorative to insult Democrats.

In effect, Trump is now admitting that his “Enslave America Act” was never really about election integrity or voter ID. It’s about rigging elections so that they favor Trump and his MAGA candidates that most Americans find abhorrent. Which, not coincidentally, is exactly how most of them regard Trump as well.

RATPUBLICAN TRUMP Posts Two Polls on Truth Social Asking Truly DUMB (With a B) Questions

Posted by on June 20, 2026 at 1:11 pm. 1 Comments :

Something for which Donald Trump can always be counted on is his commitment to always focusing squarely on the issues that matter most to – himself, and only himself.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

On Saturday morning Trump was busy doing the critical presidential work of posting idiotic comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. They included insulting and lying about Italy’s Prime Minister, making preposterous excuses for having ruined the Reflecting Pool in D.C., and bragging about having lost the reckless and illegal war he started against Iran.

SEE THIS: Trump Posts an Absolutely BONKERS Comment on His Fake ‘Peace’ Deal with Iran

In addition to those time-wasting exercises in pettiness and ego-stroking, Trump posted a couple of polls for his cult followers to play with. Neither addressed anything that the American people regard as essential to their well being. But both were repetitions of trivialities that Trump has been obsessed with. For instance…

Trump posted one poll that asked his flock which childish nickname they preferred for the Democratic Party: “Dumocrats” or “Dumbocrats”? This has been a pressing issue with Trump for quite a while. He appears to favor “Dumocrats” because you just swap the “E” for a “U.” He is particularly concerned about the inbred ignorance of his supporters, about whom he says “Many people don’t know, or assume, that DUMB ends in ‘b.'” By “many people” you can rest assured that he means himself.

Trump posted a second poll asking whether he should add the letter “N” to the beginning of the ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agency that has been harassing both immigrants and American citizens. Trump whined that “ICE has been abused by the Fake News Media at levels never seen before…Much of this hostility is caused by the Dumocrats and the Fake News.” Trump thinks that if the initials spell “NICE” that…

“…it will totally discombobulate Crooked, Dishonest, and Unpatriotic Reporters and Journalists…They won’t be able to handle it, they will go totally crazy!”

Trump is convinced that it would put an end to any criticisms. Because that worked so well when Trump tried to rename the Gulf of Mexico, the Department of Defense, and the Kennedy Center. Notice how all criticisms ceased? Neither do I.

Trump could spend his time much more productively if he posted polls on issues that really matter to the American people. How about polls asking…

  • Was the war in Iran a good idea, and has it been successful?
  • Are you satisfied with the Trump administration’s handling of the economy?
  • Do you support deporting immigrants working in agriculture, hospitality, medical care, and construction?
  • Should the United States help Ukraine against Russia’s imperialism?
  • Is universal healthcare a human right?
  • Should billionaire’s pay their fair share in taxes?
  • Do you want Trump and his “Justice” Department to stop blocking the release of the Epstein files?

These are all issues where the majority are opposed to the positions of Trump and his MAGA Republican Party. Or should I say “RATpublican” Party? After all, you just swap the “E” for “AT” And you have a much better description. Maybe I should post a poll about that.

Trump Totally Humiliated Himself – And America – 3 Times (at Least) at the G7 Summit in France

Posted by on June 17, 2026 at 3:36 pm. 4 Comments :

The walking pile of puerile perversity that we know as Donald Trump has once again demonstrated how grossly distant he is from any semblance of civil conduct. Trump’s massive yet fragile ego drives everything he does or says. And it’s particularly disturbing when he does it on foreign soil.

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

Donald Trump

Just before gallivanting off Evian, France, Trump threw himself an 80th birthday bash at the White House with a show of sweaty, half-naked men wrestling in a giant cage. Just the sort of thing that exudes the dignity and honor of the presidential residence. And Trump made certain to offer his own personal expressions of honor…

SEE THIS: Trump Goes Off on a Racist Rant Shortly After His White-Trashing of the White House and America

The next day Trump boarded Air Force One to jet off to France for the annual G7 summit with the leaders of the world’s wealthiest, most highly industrialized democracies. And while there he comported himself in exactly the manner that you would expect of a vulgarian with no diplomatic sensibilities whatsoever. What follows are three notable examples of how Trump embarrasses America every time he opens his mouth. And representing our nation on the world stage doesn’t seem to temper his grotesquery.

TRUMP THREATENS TO NUKE SOME NUCLEAR ARMED NATIONS
“Whoever sells them [Iran] a nuclear weapon will get nuked themselves, if they sold a nuclear weapon, only a few that could do it, they would be nuked. They wouldn’t have that country long.”
REALLY? So Trump is threatening to nuke Russia, or China, or North Korea, or maybe France? Does he think that they wouldn’t defend themselves by nuking the U.S. right back? Does he think at all?

TRUMP THANKS XI JINPING AND VLADIMIR PUTIN FOR BEING NEUTRAL
“I want to thank China and President XI. I was with him, and he stayed neutral, totally neutral, and I appreciate it. And I would want to thank Vladimir Putin. He was very neutral. They could have made it much more difficult for us.”
For the record, Iran did receive military technology, drones, and missile components from China. And Russia shared intelligence that actually helped Iran to locate and kill U.S. forces. Both countries propped up the Iranian economy by purchasing discounted Iranian oil. So thanks, from your fanboy Trump.

TRUMP DISPARAGES AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
“Nobody plays rougher than the United States. Look, our elections are totally rigged. We have rigged elections.”
So Trump currently presides over an all-Republican government with GOP majorities in Congress and the Supreme Court, but still chastises the U.S. for having “rigged” elections? Maybe he’s right. If our elections were free and fair there would be more political diversity. The Electoral College and the Senate representation is anything but fair.

Also, Trump complains about his buddy, former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, being convicted for plotting a military coup after the 2022 election. But Trump ignores his own persecution of Democrats like Gov. Gavin Newsom, Senators Mark Kelly, Elissa Slotkin, Adam Schiff, etc., New York Attorney General Letitia James, former FBI Director James Comey, and many more.

Also notable is a Trump post at 2:50am on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He endorsed MAGA GOP Rep. Mike Collins for the Senate in Georgia, but had little to say about Collins. However, he calls his Democratic opponent, current Sen. Jon Osoff, “Os(jerk)off.” That’s Trump always staying classy and setting a standard for America’s kids.

This Trump comment illustrates just how unfit he is for any office.He thinks he's clever with his infantile nicknames, calling Sen. Jon Osoff "Os(jerk)off." What a great role model for America's children.However, Democrats will welcome him to Georgia to campaign for Collins. Come often, Donnie.

WOW! Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth Admits Trump’s Iran Deal Gets Nothing that Obama Didn’t Get

Posted by on June 14, 2026 at 12:59 pm. 1 Comments :

The political and PR tug of war between Donald Trump and Iran is continuing to strain relations without making any observable progress. On Saturday Trump posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, declaring that an alleged “peace” deal would be signed Sunday (today). [SEE UPDATE BELOW on report of an alleged deal being reached – but no signing today]

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

Barack Obama and Donald Trump

The full comment that Trump posted was flagrantly dishonest and downright bizarre at levels never seen before (as he might put it). He insulted President Obama, misrepresented the deals by both Obama and himself, invented imaginary scenarios of future relations with Iran, and even threatened nuclear war. No, really…

SEE THIS: Trump Posts an Absolutely BONKERS Comment on His Fake ‘Peace’ Deal with Iran

On Sunday morning Trump’s Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, was interviewed on CBS News’ Face the Nation by Margaret Brennan. During their discussion Hegseth admitted something that totally contradicts what Trump has been lying about for years with regard to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) negotiated by the Obama administration to halt Iran’s nuclear aspirations.

Hegseth: Obama begged Iran for a deal. We bombed Iran, and then put in a blockade…The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won’t seek one, won’t buy one, won’t have one.
Brennan: JCPOA said that too.
Hegseth: But they didn’t have the threat of military force the way that we do…and that’s why they’re at the table. The huge difference is we did this from a position of strength. Trump led with military might.

Trump's Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Hegseth, admits Obama got Iran to agree to never have nuclear weapons (which Trump denies and lies about).Then Hegseth said the difference is Trump did it with military force (costing billions and killing thousands), while Obama did it through diplomacy.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-06-14T16:16:30.812Z

So Hegseth is actually conceding that the Obama deal secured Iran’s commitment to cease all of their nuclear weapons programs. That’s something that Trump has repeatedly said wasn’t true. Never mind that the very first paragraph of the JCPOA says that “Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek, develop or acquire any nuclear weapons.”

What Hegseth describes as the difference between the confirmed Obama deal and Trump’s more ambiguous and non-binding “Memorandum of Understanding” (MOU) is that Trump’s deal was obtained by military force and hyperbolic threats that TACO Trump kept reneging on. By contrast, Obama’s deal was secured through diplomacy, carried out by experienced negotiators, and verified by the independent International Atomic Energy Agency. None of which Trump’s team accomplished.

Hegseth implies that Trump’s hawkish warmongering is superior to Obama’s statesmanship, despite the fact that Obama got tangible results without spending billions of dollars and slaughtering thousands of innocent people. However, there are still no results whatsoever from Trump’s dealings after four months of a war that Trump said wouldn’t take more than a few days.

Meanwhile, Trump’s Homeland Security secretary, Markwayne Mullin, was also on the Sunday morning media circuit, On Fox News he praised Trump because “On his birthday he’s still working.” Then he specifies what Trump is “working” on. Was it the Iran deal that was supposed to be signed imminently? Or lowering costs for gas, groceries, housing, or healthcare? Or anything else that the American people actually want or need?

Nope. It’s his tacky and corrupt UFC birthday bash on the White House lawn. Because Trump’s priorities are squarely focused on what is most important – To him, and him alone!

MORE HERE: Trump’s White Trashing of the White House with His Tacky UFSemen Fest Even Disgusts Republicans

UPDATE: According to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in a comment posted on Twitter/X, “The Peace Deal between the United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran has been REACHED.” and that “The official signing ceremony will be on Friday, 19 June.” So there is no signing Sunday as Trump said, and a lot can change in a week. So nobody should be confident that this will pan out.

Also, while Trump posted a giddy, celebratory confirmation on Truth Social, there is no confirmation from Iran, and no details on the terms of the deal or whether it is a binding agreement or just an MOU. Also, nothing indicates that the deal contains anything that wasn’t already in the Obama deal. But reports say that Iran will get billions more from Trump, including $300 billion in recovery/reconstruction funds, and have less stringent restrictions and monitoring.

WHUT? MAGA Mike Johnson Says that No Proof of Election Rigging is Proof the Election Was Rigged

Posted by on June 9, 2026 at 12:02 pm. 4 Comments :

Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican flunkies are totally discombobulated by the fact that Democrats are leading in the elections in California. They simply cannot understand how Democratic candidates could be favored in the most Democratic state in America. Someone call the Waaahmbulance.

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

Donald Trump, Congress, Mike Johnson

The GOP and their Dear Leader think that if a Republican who is a former Fox News hack, and another who is a reality TV goofball, are not winning, there must be something terribly wrong. It’s become a mantra that the MAGA-tists chant every time an election doesn’t go their way. And they go back and forth between seething outrage and flaccid apathy.

SEE THIS: MAGA Mike Johnson Pitifully Tries to Cover For Trump Saying ‘I Don’t Care About the Midterms’

Leading the charge to declare all election outcomes phony if Republicans don’t win, is the GOP Speaker of the House of Representatives, MAGA Mike Johnson. And he is employing some novel arguments to make his case. In an exchange with CNN’s congressional correspondent, Manu Raju, Johnson shamelessly floated the theory that the absence of factual evidence of wrongdoing is proof that wrongdoing took place. When asked about the whether he though the California electins were rigged, Johnson whined that…

Johnson: I’m not saying it’s rigged. I’m saying it stinks to high heaven, and everybody knows that. Let’s remove the appearance of impropriety. What a concept. Let’s have votes on an election the day of the election. That’s what many states are able to do. I think California is playing around with us.
Raju: But what evidence is there to prove that the election was rigged?
Johnson: Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream, it is impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here, and that’s a concern. We need people to believe in the integrity of our election system.

Let’s unravel Johnson’s flaming bullshittery. To begin with he denies saying that the election is rigged, only that it stinks. What exactly is his point? Then he complains that the election results aren’t finalized on election day. Which is common in states that have mail-in voting, including Johnson’s state of Louisiana.

More to the point, Johnson’s contention that Democrats have engaged in something so “diabolical” that “it is impossible to prove” any wrongdoing. And he claims that the absence of such proof is therefore proof in itself of wrongdoing. He thinks that Democrats are so good at covering up their schemes that the schemes must have taken place. By that logic, Johnson is actually the Zodiac Killer. And the proof is that there isn’t any evidence of it. So he must have been really good at covering it up.

Johnson went on to claim that “everybody knows instinctively something is wrong.” And as an experienced lawmaker and leader of his party, Johnson knows that “instinct” is the criteria on which legal rulings are based. Who needs facts or evidence when you have strong feelings? Did the defendant murder his wife? I feel like he did, so send him to the gas chamber. Case closed.

That’s the level of intellectual scrutiny that Republicans give to election integrity. It’s a bar that was placed extraordinarily low by their Dear Leader Trump. And Johnson is very concerned about people believing in the integrity of our election system. Which is why he and Trump do nothing but trash the system every chance they get, without even a shred of evidence. That will instill the confidence he claims to crave, right? Right? RIGHT?

Clearly the Trump regime couldn’t care less about election integrity. To the contrary they are focused solely on creating skepticism and division. They know they can’t win elections on the merits of their policies and competence. So their only remaining option is make as many people as possible doubt that the elections are legitimate.

Hence their fixation on declaring that is everything rigged, despite never providing any proof. And now that absence of proof, in their minds, is its own proof that it’s all rigged. What a brilliantly asinine strategy to undermine democracy.

Trump Freaks Out Over Kennedy Center Ruling – Gets Fluffed by Maria Bartiromo on Fox News

Posted by on May 30, 2026 at 12:47 pm. 0 Comments :

By now everyone knows how easy it is to trigger Donald Trump into doing or saying something profoundly stupid, or worse, manifestly harmful to the reputation and/or well being of the United States. As Hillary Clinton presciently warned nine years ago, “A man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons.”

Donald Trump

The inherent risks in coddling Trump’s flawed personality disorders have been witnessed repeatedly in his irrational overreactions to everything from Iran’s failure to submit to his toothless threats, to his demands that late night comedians like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel be censored or banned from television. Even Fox News noticed that emotionally weak leaders should not be given destructive powers.

This week Trump’s psychological stability was challenged when a federal judge ruled that adding his name to the Kennedy Center was illegal and that he must remove it and cease plans to shut it down for unnecessary renovations. As reported by The Guardian…

“A judge on Friday ordered the removal of Donald Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, ruling that the prestigious Washington DC venue cannot be renamed without an act of Congress…[US district judge Christopher] Cooper also temporarily blocked the center from closing this summer for proposed renovations, two months after Trump announced its two-year closure.”

Shortly after that ruling was announced, Trump took to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to plaintively cry about what a pathetic victim he is. The post was so long that it would be a monumental waste of time to read it. But it contained a few morsels of insight into just how demented Trump is.

WARNING: Do not read without a strong tolerance for BLLSHT!This is Trump's tirade after a judge ruled that adding his name to the Kennedy Center was illegal, ordering it to be removed, and halting his plans to shut it down for renovations. It's more than he's ever written about helping Americans.

Trump repeated the same or similar post three times within 24 hours. He used more than half of his harangue (385 out of 723 words) to attack the judge’s wife as “an anti Trump Hater.” He whined that “Unless I am free to do what I do better than anyone else…I have no interest in continuing what could only be a hopeless journey into “NEVER NEVER LAND.” And his ludicrous argument against the ruling was that “a large Board of some of the most distinguished people in the Country voted unanimously to put the name up. I didn’t do it, the Board did.”

For the record, Trump’s argument had not only already been rejected by the court, it is grossly dishonest. As was also reported by the The Guardian…

“Shortly after taking office last year, Trump sparked controversy when he appointed himself chair of the Kennedy Center’s board of trustees in February, calling it a ‘take-over’. He purged the board and replaced them with his own appointees. The board of the Kennedy Center then voted in favor of the proposal to add Trump’s name in December, culminating an aggressive effort of his administration to remake Washington’s arts and culture institutions to his liking.”

Not surprisingly, Fox News quickly leaped to Trump’s defense. Their official Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, who herself is a Trump appointee on the Center’s board, was outraged on his behalf. So she tweeted that…

“The board already approved the name change @kencen the way these judges go after @realDonaldTrump is absolutely sick and the history books will reveal how sick and un American they are -Grow Up & stop wasting everyone’s time on your politics.”

REALLY? Bartiromo is either lying (again), or is pitifully ignorant of the facts noted above. What’s more, she was cited multiple times for her flagrant lying in the defamation lawsuit that cost Fox News $787 million for lying about the 2020 presidential election being “rigged” by Dominion Software. That’s likely to be more prominent in history books than whatever she is complaining about now.

As for “wasting everyone’s time on politics,” what does she think Trump is doing with his relentless self-aggrandizing efforts to exalt himself at the Kennedy Center, as well as the Institute of Peace, his golden vanity ballroom, his triumphal arch, and his new proposal to put his scowling mug on a $250.00 bill? Which ironically would just remind people of what it costs to fill their tank, pay for housing, get health insurance, or buy groceries.

Bartiromo’s tweet just parroted Trump’s rant, including his claims about his Board of Flunkies and his attacks on the judge’s wife. She concluded by asking “Do they not realize [America] wants @realDonaldTrump to win?” Considering that Trump’s approval rating is sitting at record lows, you have to wonder what fantasy world she resides in?

Fox News Hypes Trump’s INSANE Homeland Security Plan to Halt International Flights to Blue Cities

Posted by on May 28, 2026 at 2:00 pm. 0 Comments :

One thing that has never been in short supply since Donald Trump reoccupied the White House are truly bizarre and boneheaded ideas that forebode catastrophes for America and the American people.

Among Trump’s most boneheaded initiatives are his idiotic and inflationary tariffs, his obsession to build a gold-plated vanity ballroom, his $1.8 billion “weaponization” slush fund to reward violent, criminal seditionists, and his reckless and illegal war against Iran. Which is going about as well as you would imagine for a war run by a wannabe dictator with acute mental impairment.

This week Trump’s Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, provided a brand new notion that stretches the margins of MAGA madness. During a typically friendly “interview” by Sean Hannity on Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda (aka Fox News), Mullin threatened to prohibit all international air travel into the United States from landing in what the DHS has deemed are “sanctuary cities.”

“We are currently drawing up plans to say, listen, in these sanctuary cities where the local radical left Democrats aren’t allowing us to do our job and enforce federal laws, then we shouldn’t be processing international flights into their cities.”

More proof the Trump regime has gone full fascist.Trump's DHS boss thinks government can tell airlines where they can operate based on politics.Prohibiting flights into New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Seattle, etc., will send the national economy into a death spiral.

REALLY? That may be the dumbest of the impressive array of dumbfuckery that the Trump regime has unloaded to date. First of all, it is government intrusion into private enterprise that the airline industry isn’t going to tolerate. Secondly, it is based entirely on political biases that adds a new layer of illegality to a plan that couldn’t pass constitutional muster anyway. Thirdly, it would send the nation into an economic tailspin, causing irreparable harm to every business associated with travel and hospitality. Just what the already faltering economy needs.

Coming just prior to the U.S. hosting the World Cup and the Olympics – and the expected massive influx of world travelers to America – compounds the idiocy of it all. Anyone could see just how ridiculous such an action would be. Well, anyone but the Trump-fluffers in the MAGA media. So how did Fox News respond to this preposterous proposal? By worshipfully embracing it like good cult minions. This is what Harris Faulkner, co-host of Fox’s “Outnumbered” had to say…

“The latest DHS list of current sanctuary cities includes Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco. and along with Newark, all of those airports handle 1,100 international flights per day, carrying around 185,000 passengers.

“Well, they’re not just gonna not fly. They’re gonna go to places where they’re not sanctuary districts. They’re gonna go to red states and cities. And what will that look like? A boon for the red states. And again, people will just hate living in blue states.”

HOLY TOLEDO! Well, not Toledo. That’s a “blue” city. Along with those Faulkner itemized above, and the District of Columbia, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, Pittsburgh, Minneapolis, Detroit, Cleveland, New Orleans, Las Vegas, San Diego, and Tucson. In fact, it was difficult to find any major cities with international airports that are “red” cities.

Does Faulkner and Fox News really believe that international travelers are going to be happy to fly into Boise, Jacksonville, Omaha, or Tulsa (all lovely cities), rather than New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago? Would they have to catch limited connecting flights to the destinations that they really want to visit? How would that be a “boon” for red cities, other than to create a lot more work for law enforcement and hospitals due to the intolerable and dangerous traffic jams at their inadequate airports?

The morning after his Hannity appearance, Mullin was back on Fox News reiterating his redlining of blue cities threat. It’s difficult to imagine that they would ever actually go through with it. But it is more proof that these Trumpists never think anything through beyond a preliminary assessment of whether or not their audience is stupid enough to believe them.

Which they don’t really have to worry about because the Fox audience has been brainwashed to the point of having such squeaky clean brains that they will buy whatever they are told by their MAGA masters.
