Herr Trump Decrees that He Will Abolish Mail-In Voting and that States Must Obey His MAGA-STY

Posted by on August 18, 2025 at 11:54 am. 0 Comments :

The goal of the totalitarian dystopia that Donald Trump has been craving just got closer to realization with his posting of a tediously long and lie-riddled rant on his failing Twitter rip off, Truth Social. Adding to his deployment of ICE stormtroopers in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., and his directives to have his Justice Department persecute his political foes, Trump is decreeing a new and obvious breach of the Constitution aimed at advancing his autocratic aspirations.

Donald Trump, Vote By Mail

Trump’s latest tyrannical outburst decrees that he will unilaterally abolish what he calls the “THE MAIL-IN BALLOT HOAX.” [Has anyone been counting his alleged hoaxes?] His proposal would end mail-in voting throughout the country. It’s part of a plan that Trump is executing to rig elections in order to suppress the rights of voters and support the election of his MAGA Republicans. And it comes on the heels of his campaign to redraw congressional districts to favor the GOP and deny Democrats a fair vote.

In Trump’s post he virtually admits his anti-democratic intentions, saying that it is his purpose to harm Democratic voters “with their HORRIBLE Radical Left policies.” But there is so much more in his extended harangue that ought to concern all Americans. For instance…

“I am going to lead a movement to get rid of MAIL-IN BALLOTS, and also, while we’re at it, Highly “Inaccurate,” Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES.”
The elimination of mail-in voting – and electronic voting machines – would make it impossible to conduct the vote counting in a timely manner. It would also be more prone to errors.

“We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting. All others gave it up because of the MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD ENCOUNTERED.”
This is a flat out lie. At least 30 other countries permit mail-in voting. That includes Russia. Which is a ludicrous example of fair voting practices, but who Trump used to support his lie.

“WE WILL BEGIN THIS EFFORT, WHICH WILL BE STRONGLY OPPOSED BY THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THEY CHEAT AT LEVELS NEVER SEEN BEFORE, by signing an EXECUTIVE ORDER.”
Trump is projecting again. It is he and the GOP who are most commonly found to have cheated in elections. More to the point., he has no power to order how elections are held, especially not by executive order.

“Remember, the States are merely an ‘agent’ for the Federal Government in counting and tabulating the votes. They must do what the Federal Government, as represented by the President of the United States, tells them.”
HOLY CRAP! Trump is saying out loud that he believes that he, as president, can issue mandates to the nation that must be obeyed, and that override the state sovereignty provided in the Constitution.

“Democrats are virtually Unelectable without using this completely disproven Mail-In SCAM. ELECTIONS CAN NEVER BE HONEST WITH MAIL IN BALLOTS/VOTING, and everybody, IN PARTICULAR THE DEMOCRATS, KNOWS THIS.”
What Trump means here is that he is scared to death of fair elections, and that they must not be permitted in the future. He has previously said that if mail-in voting is allowed “There will never be a Republican elected to high office again.” Which sounds more like a reward than a threat. However, he has also taken the opposite position, urging his supporters to “vote absentee, by mail, early in person, or on Election Day.”

For the record, Article I, Section 4, Clause 1, of the Constitution states that “The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.”

In short, the president does not have the authority to alter the way states decide to hold their elections. At best he would need to get Congress to pass legislation to make any changes to state law.

Not that Trump gives a damn about the Constitution. Although, it could be interesting to see if Republicans in Congress would willingly give up their Constitutional authorities. They have done it before for Dear Leader Trump. But hopefully there are lines that even they won’t cross in their betrayal of American principles.

Trump’s ‘Weaponization Working Group’ Lives Down to Its Name with Threats to Persecute Democrats

The dissembling of the U.S. Department of Justice under Donald Trump is proceeding apace as his disgraced and unqualified appointees conspire to abuse their power in order to take out Trump’s perceived enemies and shield him from any and all negative consequences of his own blatant criminality.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

To be sure, much of their primary focus of late is concentrated on deflecting from their refusal to release the files that they control related to child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. They already tasked 1,000 FBI agents to search for and redact Trump’s name from those files. But apparently, that still isn’t enough to satisfy Trump that his unsavory relationship with the pair of perverts is sufficiently hidden.

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

In a chilling escalation of the DoJ’s descent into Trump’s personal prosecutorial staff, Trump’s director of the DoJ’s aptly/ironically named “Weaponization Working Group,” Ed Martin, was dispatched to their Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, to disseminate more of their flagrantly dishonest assaults on anyone who Trump has deemed disloyal. Martin – who was too much of a MAGA extremist to be confirmed as U.S. Attorney – was interviewed by Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, and he delivered the following forthright threats aimed at the opponents of Dear Leader…

“We’re gonna go to the bottom of the facts, and if somebody did something wrong, we’re not only gonna hold them accountable, we’re also gonna look at everything else that they’ve been doing.

“Because when you’re a liar, you lie not just on one thing. When you’re a cheater, you cheat not just on one thing. When you’re doing corruption, you generally don’t just do it on one thing. So that’s what we’re asked to do as prosecutors. And that’s what we’re doing.”

Ed Martin: "Letitia James & Adam Schiff — both their lawyers have come out and talked publicly about the criminal referrals…we're gonna follow the facts…and if somebody did something wrong, we're not only gonna hold them accountable, we're also gonna look at everything else they've been doing"

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-08-17T15:20:26.462Z

Martin is promising to expand the already meritless allegations against people like Letitia James and Adam Schiff, into investigations of “everything else” that he can twist into bogus accusations. In other words, witch hunts. Although his justification citing the tendencies of liars, and cheaters, and those who are corrupt, really fits Trump much better than any of those who Martin is targeting. But he was just getting started. The discussion continued with the following exchange…

Bartiromo: What about the January 6 committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?
Martin: Of course. Trust me, a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox, because there’s a lot to be asked about.
Bartiromo: And the pardons that were given out were done by an autopen. Are they legitimate?
Martin: I’m a pardon attorney, so I’m in that too. I can tell you we’re investigating how the pardons were granted. It was not like anything in the history of America. What Joe Biden – not Joe Biden – what his staffers did not just with the autopen, but with faking him out on the memos. More to come, Maria. I’m telling you, Pam Bondi has let us loose, and when this comes out it will take the whole of these people’s hoaxes down. And we’re doing it bit by bit, and it’s fantastic.”

BARTIROMO: What about the January 6 committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?ED MARTIN: Of course. Trust me, a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox.

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-08-17T15:25:46.591Z

First of all, there was no evidence destroyed by the January 6th Committee, and thus no criminality. And Martin’s reference to those who did not receive pardons as being vulnerable to prosecution is the sort of intimidation tactic employed by dictators like Vladimir Putin, who Trump idolizes and seeks to emulate.

Bartiromo then brings up the preposterous question of the legitimacy of Biden’s pardons. Of course, Martin embraces that nonsense and builds on it with his own allegations about some mysterious memos. Then he is downright giddy with glee over being “let loose” by Attorney Genuflect Pam Bondi, and how “fantastic” it will be to take down these alleged hoaxes.

President Biden’s wisdom in issuing pardons for the January 6th Committee members is proven to be warranted by the partisan and abusive actions that Martin is taking now. And it is notable that neither Martin nor Bartiromo bother to mention the pardons issued by Trump for more than 1,500 violent insurrections, including those who assaulted police officers, that were also signed by an autopen.

The hypocrisy exhibited by these agents of authoritarianism is waist deep, at least. And their zeal to act on it by persecuting patriots who sought to preserve American democracy is despicable. Unfortunately, it is also expected of the goon squads that work for Trump. and the sooner we 8647, the better. [FYI: for all you soggy-brained numbskulls, 86 means to throw out]

Trump Has (Another) Senior Moment Forgetting How Much He Hates ‘Sleepy Eyes’ Chuck Todd

Posted by on August 12, 2025 at 1:45 pm. 3 Comments :

The sundowning mental acuity of Donald Trump becomes more evident with each passing day. His verbal gaffes, factual distortions, angry outbursts, and general incoherence and departures from reality would justify commitment to an institution for anyone other than the power mongering leader of a political cult.

Donald Trump WTF

Trump has manifested the Woody Allen joke wherein he laments a relative who is so crazy that he thinks he’s a chicken. But the family won’t get him help because…they need the eggs. That perfectly describes Trump’s family and his disciples in Congress and the media who regularly cover for Trump and sanewash his sickness. They know he’s nuts, but they rely on it to retain their power and wealth. Meanwhile, the rest of the nation has to suffer the humiliation of having Trump occupying their White House.

SEE THIS: OK, So Trump is a Felon, Liar, Racist, Adulterer, and Grifter. He’s Also Just So Damn Embarrassing

This week we have already seen Trump say that he was going to meet Vladimir Putin in Russia, when the meeting will be in Alaska. He has claimed to have reduced drug prices by a mathematically impossible 1,500%. And on Tuesday morning Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, in which he offered damning praise for former NBC correspondent, Chuck Todd…

“‘I don’t think we’ve had anybody with this much impact on the Country since FDR.’ Chuck Todd, formerly of NBC FAKE NEWS, in an interview with journalist David Brody. Wow, thank you Chuck. I always said that you were far better than the scum that runs the FAKE NEWS at NBC and, especially, Brian Roberts and ‘Concast.’ You are a Free Man now. Congratulations – Use your time well!”

To be sure, virtually everything that Trump does and says these days is intended to deflect from his unsavory relationship with child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. As for “journalist” David Brody, he is actually a Trump-fluffing squawking head on the Christian Broadcasting Network. But more to the point, Trump seems to have completely forgotten how he really feels about Chuck Todd. Over the course of many years Trump has attacked him as a disseminator of “fake” news with a typically infantile Trump nickname. For instance…

  • March 27, 2024: “Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd, who was fired for dismal performance coupled with horrendous television ratings.”
  • May 7, 2023: “So funny to watch Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd on Meet the Fake Press.”
  • April 9, 2023: “highly partisan Democrat anchor “Sleepy Eyes” Chuck Todd.”
  • July 7, 2022: “Is Chuck Todd Ready To MEET HIS DEMISE?”

Now, suddenly, Trump adores Todd and congratulations him on his freedom to exalt Trump. Except that isn’t what Todd wasn’t actually doing. Obviously somebody fed Trump an edited version of Todd’s remarks. The comments in context were merely pointing out that Trump had an impact, but that it wasn’t necessarily a positive one. Todd continued…

“Culturally, in particular. Certainly, in how even our politics is conducted. In that sense, I think the question is does he have impact on policy for decades to come? […] These are things that, you and I know, are things that the previous Republican Party would have…’How dare government tell business what to do?’ And yet there’s no outcry.”

For the record, here a few others who have had an “impact” America: Adolf Hitler, Lee Harvey Oswald, and Osama Bin Laden. That is the company that Trump is in. It is often difficult to come to the defense of Todd, who frequently sanitizes Trump, and other Republican extremists, with his trademark bothsiderisms. And even in these remarks he watered down the most salient points. But he was not praising Trump, as Trump believes.

In other comments posted to Truth Social, Trump was equally off kilter. In one he brazenly lied that…

“Trillions of Dollars are being taken in on Tariffs, which has been incredible for our Country, its Stock Market, its General Wealth, and just about everything else. It has been proven, that even at this late stage, Tariffs have not caused Inflation […] Consumers aren’t even paying these Tariffs.”

Reality begs to differ. As reported in the New York Times…

“U.S. Inflation Report Shows Effects of Trump’s Tariffs: A gauge of underlying inflation in July showed prices increasing at the fastest annual pace in five months, a sign that businesses are passing along tariff-related costs to customers.”

In another example, Trump continued his whining about Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, for not lowering interest rates. He even escalated his complaint with a threat suggesting his intention to fire Powell…

Trump is still bashing – and threatening – Fed chair Jerome Powell for not lowering interest rates.But the Trump economy is running too hot and inflation is rising. Increasing interest rates will make that worse.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-12T17:07:05.193Z

Once again, the real world interceded to correct Trump’s deranged misunderstanding of economics and current events. Granted, it is not always clear if Trump is just being ignorant, delusional, or dishonest. But the result is the same. It is destructive and dangerous and contrary to democratic governance. And the sooner he is stopped from his egomaniacal, authoritarian ambitions, the better. Keep up the resistance. And hopefully his family will get him the help that he so sorely needs.

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

Posted by on August 11, 2025 at 1:58 pm. 2 Comments :

Nothing triggers a cantankerous Donald Trump temper tantrum like somebody daring to deliver a well documented and deserved criticism of Dear Leader’s multitude of failures. There’s a lot of material to work with there, and many have taken the opportunity to knock Trump down a peg or twelve.

Jasmine Crockett on Fox News

The fragility of Trump’s massively inflated ego makes it an easy target. And he doesn’t help himself by constantly providing ammunition for his critics with comments and behavior that reek of ignorance and incoherence. He is bottomless pit of humiliating and infantile impudence.

SEE THIS: OK, So Trump is a Felon, Liar, Racist, Adulterer, and Grifter. He’s Also Just So Damn Embarrassing

Trump is especially vulnerable to criticism from women, who he regards as objects for him to abuse, demean, and dominate. He has bragged that his celebrity allows him to “grab them by the pussy.” Which is behavior that he has acted upon, resulting in a civil lawsuit that cost him almost $90 million.

Politically, Trump frequently narrows his disrespect for women to specifically Black women. And on Monday morning he offered an example of his animus toward women of color who fail to subjugate themselves to him. While in the midst of his morning routine of watching Fox News, he saw Rep. Jasmine Crockett being smeared by the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends. That segment aired at about 6:45, and by 7:30 Trump was lashing out on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He posted a comment dripping with hatred and fear that said…

“‘Congresswoman’ Jasmine Crockett is a Low (Very!!!) I.Q. Individual, much in the mold of the AOC Plus Three Gang of Country Destroying Morons – Only slightly dumber. Each of these political hacks should be forced to take a Cognitive Exam, much like the one I recently took while getting my ‘physical’ at our GREAT Washington, D.C., Military Hospital (WR!). As the doctors said, ‘President Trump ACED it, something that is rarely seen!’ These Radical Left Lunatics would all fail this test in a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence. TAKE THE TEST!!!”

Trump was up early watching Fox News (of course). So he rage-posted a typically racist (and deranged) response to a segment on Fox and Friends that bashed Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-11T18:45:31.367Z

Trump’s insult of Crockett’s intelligence is nothing new. It is a regular line pulled from his tiny collection of rhetorical rants. He uses it mostly against women of color, including Kamala, Harris, Maxine Waters, and what he refers to as “AOC Plus Three.” By which he means representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib. All women of color. Although, to be fair, Trump has occasionally used the same epithet on Black men, For instance…

SEE ALSO: Trump Calls Charlamagne Tha God a ‘Low IQ’ ‘Racist Sleazebag’ During Lara Trump’s Fox News Show

Furthermore, Trump is also rehashing his preposterous claims of intellectual prowess proven by his having taken a simple cognitive test that is intended only to detect early signs of dementia, and is not a measure of intelligence. Nevertheless, he proposes that his foes “should be forced” to take the test that presents such challenges as identifying a picture of a camel, and drawing a clock. Trump is exceedingly proud of having “aced” that test and claims that doing so “is rarely seen.” Those comments alone would earn him a failing grade on the very same test.

What Trump is riled up about is the fact that Crockett, a lawyer and legal scholar, is actually a far more intelligent person than he is, and deep down inside he knows it. What’s more, she has the audacity to call out his lies with the evidence to back up her assertions, and the talent to rip apart egomaniacal snowflakes like Trump. Take for instance her recent comments at a rally supporting the Texas Democrats who are obstructing the state’s efforts to rig the next election…

“We have a Temu Hitler in the White House right now that thinks that he is going to become the dictator of the United States. Well, I’ve got another thing to tell you.”

Jasmine Crockett- "There's a Temu Hitler in the White House." ???

In 2024, a survey of presidential historians conducted by the Presidential Greatness Project found that out of forty-five American presidents, Donald Trump ranked 45th. Yet somehow, coming in dead last didn’t stop his loyal cult disciples from turning out to vote for him again, sending him back the White House that he is currently turning into a glitter palace that appears to be a cross between the design sensibilities of Liberace and Saddam Hussein.

Donald Trump, Mocking Disability

Even worse, Trump is transforming America into a neo-fascist mecca of authoritarian tyranny. He is brazenly defying the courts, implementing Gestapo tactics, embracing enemies, alienating allies, and surrounding himself with sycophants whose loyalty is to him rather than the Constitution. Trump is simultaneously preparing to steal future elections to insure his aspirations to retain power indefinitely.

SEE THIS: Wannabe Dictator Trump Orders a New Census to Rig Upcoming Elections, Violating the Constitution

The record of Trump’s occupation of the White House is one that is marred with scandal and disrepute. That includes his 34 felony convictions, his tens of thousands of lies, his cheating on all three of his wives, and his endless efforts to stuff his own pockets with billions of ill-gotten dollars. And that’s before we even get into his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein and his moll, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Setting all of that grotesquery aside momentarily, it is impossible to observe the reality of Trump without becoming downright nauseous. He manages to find ways to embarrass America in ways never thought possible before. For instance, on Sunday morning Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that is emblematic of his infantile tendencies. He raged that…

“Crooked Nancy Pelosi, and her very ‘interesting’ husband, beat ever Hedge Fund in 2024. In other words, these two very average ‘minds’ beat ALL of the Super Geniuses on Wall Street, thousands of them. It’s all INSIDE iNFORMATION! Is anybody looking into this??? She is a disgusting degenerate, who Impeached me twice, on NO GROUNDS, and LOST! How are you feeling now, Nancy???”

Trump's latest post on Truth Social is downright embarrassing. He attacks Nancy Pelosi as a "disgusting degenerate," and whines about having been impeached twice. He's a quivering mass of pent up vengefulness.He sounds like a sad and pathetic parody of a Bond villain.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-10T07:58:53.108Z

Who knows what triggered this particular tantrum? He doesn’t really require a reason to act out his random hostilities. It’s enough for him to harbor a virulent hatred for a perceived foe in order to lash out. In this case it’s former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her “interesting” husband. What he finds interesting about him is unmentioned. Perhaps that he was nearly murdered by a Trump supporter, which Trump has callously joked about.

Trump’s comment focuses on the financial success of the Pelosi family. Apparently that is an admirable achievement for anyone except Democrats. Trump, as usual has zero evidence of any wrongdoing by the Pelosis. He is just spreading spurious accusations in order to smear his political opponents. And of course, he floats the prospect of someone “looking into this,” which is his not so secret directive to his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to begin an investigation and issue indictments.

In closing, Trump revealed his true intentions and sleazy character. Like a petulant eight year old, Trump resorts to name-calling, whining that Pelosi is a “disgusting degenerate.” Then he reminds everyone that he was impeached twice, on solid grounds, with abundant evidence. And finally he asks, in the manner of a Mafia boss, “How are you feeling now, Nancy???” He might as well have added “Nice noggin ya got there. Be a shame if someone tried to crack it open with a hammer.”

It remains utterly unexplainable that anyone can still support this cretinous blob of hate. His language is abominable. His openly expressed thoughts are disgusting. His demeanor is that of a crime kingpin with severe emotional problems. His ego is ginormous, yet pitifully fragile. And none of his cohorts in Congress or the press will tell him the truth about what an embarrassment he is to himself, but more importantly to the nation.

So it’s up to us. With help from South Park, Stephen Colbert, the Daily Show, and other talented satirists who aren’t afraid to speak truth to power. Trump’s Achilles heel is his ego. We need to target it without mercy. LFG!

Wannabe Dictator Trump Orders a New Census to Rig Upcoming Elections, Violating the Constitution

Posted by on August 7, 2025 at 1:33 pm. 3 Comments :

The abysmal job approval ratings achieved by Donald Trump are currently among the lowest he has ever recorded, as well as the lowest of his modern predecessors. And with regard to the issues that he has deemed crucial, he is underwater on everything from immigration and deportations, to tariffs and trade, to foreign policy and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, to the economy, and more.

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

That explains why Trump and his MAGA minions are desperately plotting to rig the 2026 elections in order to maintain their tyrannical grip power. To that end, Texas governor Greg Abbott has assembled a special session of the Texas state legislature to force a rare mid-census redistricting, intending to redraw the district maps to favor Republicans and oust Democrats. Although he may end up regretting the partisan hornet’s nest that he has aroused.

SEE THIS: Gavin Newsom Floats Redistricting in California to Counteract the Texas Plan to Gerrymander

Not one to be left out of any fiery news cycle, Trump joined in with his own ideas that represent a massive escalation of his war to crown himself King of America. On his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump posted a comment announcing his intention to raise the ante on redistricting with a grossly unlawful scheme to steal the elections in 2026 and 2028 and beyond…

“I have instructed our Department of Commerce to immediately begin work on a new and highly accurate CENSUS based on modern day facts and figures and, importantly, using the results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024. People who are in our Country illegally WILL NOT BE COUNTED IN THE CENSUS. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

First of all, Trump couldn’t care less about accuracy or facts. If he did he would not have just fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics simply because he didn’t like the accurate facts that were revealed in the recent jobs report.

More to the point, Trump’s decree to conduct a new census on a purely political partisan basis is blatantly unconstitutional. Not that he cares about that either. But the Constitution clearly states how the census is to be conducted in Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, which says that…

“The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct.”

So according to the Constitution, the census is to be conducted once every ten years. There is nothing in that clause that allows for more frequent surveys. There are also no funds allocated by Congress to pay the $15 billion dollars that it costs to do a new, complete census.

However, that isn’t the only Constitutional obstacle to Trump’s ludicrous plan. He says openly that he wants his new survey to exclude “People who are in our Country illegally.” That is also prohibited by constitutional law. The 14th Amendment, Section 2, states that…

“Representatives shall be apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed.”

While undocumented persons do not vote, they are persons. And it is critical to know the total number of all persons to ensure that states receive and allocate adequate resources to serve their entire resident population. You cannot simply pretend that real human beings don’t exist. An accurate complete count impacts everything from housing, to police and fire services, to education, to nutritional and health matters, to traffic, and more.

What’s more, the financial contributions of undocumented persons to the economy need to be assessed. For instance, in 2022, undocumented immigrant households paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes, and had $299 billion in spending power. They also fulfill labor needs in fields such as agriculture, construction, healthcare, etc. And they pay into the Social Security Trust Fund, even though they cannot collect from it. In fact, undocumented immigrants paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes in 2022.

Consequently, Trump’s idea of excluding undocumented persons from the census would be materially harmful to every municipality, and to the nation as a whole. Meanwhile, any changes to the apportionment of congressional representatives or Electoral Collage votes would be minimal with offsetting impact for both parties.

In conclusion, there is no reason to conduct another census with Trump’s racist adjustments other than to satiate the hatred by Trump and his MAGA movement. And the legal barriers to it are impossible to overcome without actions taken by Congress or constitutional amendment.

Trump tried this before and was struck down by the Supreme Court with a decision written by conservative Justice John Roberts. So maybe Trump’s motivation for doing this is not just to steal an election. Maybe he’s also using it as yet another distraction from the Jeffrey Epstein/Ghislaine Maxwell affair that he is trying so feverishly to avoid. And he’s losing on both counts.

Trump’s Intel Boss Can’t Cite Any Evidence Tying Obama to Her Phony ‘Russia Hoax’ on Fox News

Posted by on August 6, 2025 at 1:52 pm. 0 Comments :

The past few weeks have seen Donald Trump and his Garrulous Gaslight Gang scampering frantically to shift America’s attention from his abhorrent and aberrant relationship with child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, to anything else. They have thrown everything including the kitchen sink into this mission of mercenary misinformation and malice.

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

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

The panic sweat is dripping from the brows of the Trump flunkies as they try to peddle their all too obvious distractions. They run the gamut from trivialities like the wholly concocted controversies about the jeans of Sydney Sweeney, to the inflation inducing Trump taxes (aka tariffs), to more disturbing and utterly bogus allegations of treason by President Obama and others.

SEE THIS: Trump’s DNI and Fox News Manufacture a New Crackpot Conspiracy Theory Accusing Obama of Treason

What the Trump regime operatives are calling the “Russia Hoax” has taken center stage, as they flock to Fox News every day to spread their blatant nonsense. And leading the charge is Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, and bona fide Russian asset, Tulsi Gabbard. On Tuesday night Gabbard visited with Fox News Trump-fluffer, Laura Ingraham, who asked a surprisingly relevant question. But predictably, she didn’t get anything resembling a coherent answer…

Ingraham: You said there was irrefutable evidence that Obama was the mastermind of this intelligence manipulation and the perpetuation of the Russia Hoax. What is that irrefutable evidence for our viewers tonight?
Gabbard: Laura, you know, as you were playing those clips of these people like Morning Joe [Scarborough] seemingly befuddled, saying that by no account is any of this true. I would challenge them to see if they’ve actually read the documents, every single page of the documents that we’ve released over the last couple of weeks.

Whereupon, Gabbard invited the Fox News viewers to read a bunch of garbage that she posted online. As if they would – or can – read. But she didn’t bother to provide any of the allegedly “irrefutable evidence” that Ingraham asked for. All of the information that she has presented previously – online or on the air – has been entirely devoid of any factual basis.

Nevertheless, Gabbard went on to tell Ingraham that the online docs would reveal “how President Obama directed that a National Security Council meeting be called to talk about Russia.” She claimed that Obama tasked his Intel staff to alter the substance of their reporting on Russia’s well documented interference in the 2016 presidential election. Then she continued, brazenly lying that…

“Per the president’s direction, per the president’s order, and very specifically, they were tasked to create an intelligence assessment that detailed how Moscow tried to influence the election – not if, but how. And this was the beginning of this manufactured intelligence assessment where they knowingly wrote things in this assessment that were false.”

To reiterate, Gabbard has still not fulfilled Ingraham’s request for some actual evidence. But now she is asserting, without any proof, that Obama and his staff altered and released falsified data. Not only was the data not false, it was corroborated by the Senate Intelligence Committee five years ago when it was chaired by Republicans, including Trump’s current Secretary of State, Marco Rubio. The bipartisan Committee report said that…

“…the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. […] Moscow’s intent was to harm the Clinton Campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump Campaign after Trump became the presumptive Republican nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process.”

Even Gabbard’s own comments suggest that the Obama did nothing wrong. She notes that Obama asked that the reports include how “Moscow tried to influence the election – not if, but how.” She’s implying that there is something untoward about that. But it’s only because the “if” was not in doubt. Russia definitely tried to influence the election. Obama wanted to make sure that their methods (the “how”) were also included in the report. That’s real honesty and transparency.

For his part, Trump helped to keep all of this in the news with a new comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In what appears to be his transcript of what Gabbard said on Fox News, Trump wrote that…

“Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard: ‘Obama directed that a National Security Council meeting be called… They were tasked to create an Intelligence Assessment that detailed how Moscow tried to influence the election—not ‘if’—but ‘how’… They knowingly wrote things in this assessment that were false.'”

If nothing else, we have additional confirmation that Trump spends an inordinate amount of his time watching his minions talk about him on Fox News. However, the truly troubling aspects of this go much deeper. Just in the past week we have seen the weaponizing of the law by Trump’s Justice Department and his MAGA contingent in Congress.

Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi has launched “a grand jury investigation of whether Obama administration officials committed federal crimes when they assessed Russia’s actions during the 2016 election.” And GOP Oversight Committee chair, James Comer, has issued subpoenas for depositions from Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Robert Mueller, William Barr, Jeff Sessions and Alberto Gonzales.

So Bondi and Comer are joining Gabbard in the quest for evidence-free persecution of Democrats and other critics of Dear Leader Trump. None of them actually present any of their imaginary evidence. But they bellow about it publicly in an attempt to get their cult followers and the media to pay attention to their fabrications. And of course, to draw attention away from Epstein and Maxwell and Trump.

The good news is that it isn’t working. The American people – including many Trump supporters – still want the truth to be revealed. They aren’t buying the misdirection tactics. And the pathetic and desperate determination of the Trumpists just makes them look all the more ridiculous.

WHUT? The RNC Brags About Trump ‘Making Automobiles Great Again’ By Tweeting a Russian-Made Car

Posted by on August 1, 2025 at 1:00 pm. 0 Comments :

If anyone is worried about the Republican Party outsmarting Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections, you can put your minds at rest. The Party is demonstrating that it is just as confused, ignorant, and oblivious to reality as their Confounder-in-Chief, Donald Trump. They are faithfully emulating the behavior of their Dear Leader to achieve maximum humiliation.

Donald Trump, Republican, GOP

For several weeks Trump and his White House cronies have been trying to hype a blatantly fabricated “scandal” having to do with an alleged “Deep State” conspiracy by Democrats to frame Trump for colluding with Russia to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. They are accusing everyone from President Obama to Hillary Clinton to the entirety of the U.S. intelligence community, of collaborating in this ludicrous scheme, despite having no evidence whatsoever.

SEE THIS: Trump’s DNI and Fox News Manufacture a New Crackpot Conspiracy Theory Accusing Obama of Treason

Of course, this escalation of baseless scandal mongering is just their latest effort to deflect from the continuing saga of child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, and his unsavory relationship with Trump. They are desperate to make this story go away, but it is more resilient than a horror movie axe murderer who can’t be killed. Because the American people want answers to the questions that Trump et al are too scared to provide.

However, the Republicans aren’t doing themselves any favors with their recent campaign to change the subject. On Friday morning the official Twitter/X account for the Republican National Committee posted a comment saying “The One Big Beautiful bill will drive the return of the great American car.” That message appeared above a picture of Trump standing in front of car with the caption: “Making Automobiles Great Again”.

There was just one little problem. The car in the picture was not made in America. It wasn’t made in Mexico, or Canada, or Europe, or Asia either. It was made decades ago in Russia. No, really…

HOLY CRAP!The official GOP Twitter/X account: "Making Automobiles Great Again. x.com/GOP/status/1…The Community Note: "The car pictured behind President Trump is a stock image of a Russian/Soviet made VAZ 2101, better known as the Lada 1200. It is not an American made car."

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-01T16:57:27.116Z

Note the correction appended in the Community Note below the tweet that says, “The car pictured behind President Trump is a stock image of a Russian/Soviet made VAZ 2101, better known as the Lada 1200. It is not an American made car.” Anyone with a functioning cerebellum would have known that just by looking at it. But apparently, that leaves out operatives at the RNC.

It is also notable that this epic blunder by the RNC was posted on the same day that Trump endorsed the current chairman of the RNC, Michael Whatley, for the open Senate seat in North Carolina. Trump’s endorsement was made on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, and said that this is…

“Great news for North Carolina! Michael Whatley, one of the most capable executives in our Country, who successfully ran, along with Lara Trump, the Republican National Committee, has launched his run for the United States Senate!”

Great news indeed. For Democrats. If Whatley is one of the RNC’s “most capable executives,” you do not want to run into one of their boneheaded slackers. Such as Lara Trump, who briefly considered running for the seat herself. Depending on the outcome of party primaries, Whatley would be running against Roy Cooper, the popular former two-term governor of North Carolina.

When you consider all of the possible mistakes that they could have made when putting this propaganda tweet together, it boggles the mind how they wound up with Trump doing his YMCA dance in front of a Russian car. The conspiracy crackpots on the right might suspect that there is mole in the RNC who is deliberately sabotaging Trump by further aligning him with Russia and his good pal and role model, Vladimir Putin.

However, these things happen too often for that excuse to be plausible. There would have to be an army of moles. It is much easier to explain by just accepting the fact that they are a confederacy of dunces, inadvertently sabotaging themselves.

Trump Unloads Dozens of Deranged Comments in a Morning Rage that Confirms His Mental Infirmity

Posted by on July 30, 2025 at 2:35 pm. 4 Comments :

The perpetual state of rage that envelopes Donald Trump is documented in the stream of incoherence that he dispenses daily on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It is an uninterrupted temper tantrum that manifests in an outpouring of insults, lies, and shameless self-exaltation.

Donald Trump Angry

These days Trump is placing extra emphasis on his rants in order to deflect from news about his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. And on Wednesday morning he suffered a particularly acute episode of explosive diarhetoric as he pounded out 37 putrid posts in the early hours of his day, rather than engage in any of the work that one might expect of a president. That’s a typical schedule for Trump, who is generally more focused on what’s pissing him off, instead of what’s pertinent to the needs of the American people. He always puts himself and his massive yet fragile ego first.

SEE THIS: The King of Conspiracy Theories Whines that Democrats Don’t Talk Enough About How Awesome He Is

The onslaught of invective from Trump on this occasion began with a tired rehash of his hatred for Stephen Colbert. Trump complained that…

“Everybody is saying that I was solely responsible for the firing of Stephen Colbert from CBS, Late Night. That is not true! The reason he was fired was a pure lack of TALENT. […] Next up will be an even less talented Jimmy Kimmel, and then, a weak, and very insecure, Jimmy Fallon.”

Actually, it was Trump and his cronies who were giving him credit for the cancelation of Colbert’s show. And Trump is the last person who should be assessing the talent of others. For the record, Colbert’s show is number one in its time period. The cancelation, which isn’t effective until May of 2026, is due only to the cowardly compliance of the network’s corporate masters.

Next up was Trump’s visceral animosity toward a strong woman on Fox News who dared to criticize the blubbering snowflake Trump. He whined that…

“I can’t stand Jessica Tarlov of THE FIVE. A real loser!!! DJT”

That’s it. Trump didn’t bother to give any reason for this outburst. It might have had something to do with Tarlov having spoken out Tuesday on matters related to the inflationary Trump Tax (tariffs), or to Trump’s historically abysmal approval polling, or to her advocacy for assault rifle regulations in the wake of a mass shooting in Manhattan.

Trump simply can’t tolerate any criticism. But it’s monumentally worse if it comes from a woman. Trump has gone after Tarlov before, calling her a “failed TV personality” who Fox News should not allow on the air. Even on a program (“The five”) where she is outnumbered four-to-one. For the record, Tarlov has a doctorate in political science and government from the London School of Economics. So it’s no wonder that Trump is afraid of her.

The majority of Trump’s posts expressed his tyrannical demand that Republicans in the Senate rush to confirm his judicial nominees. He singled out Sen. Chuck Grassley for failing to overcome Democratic opposition via use of the “blue slip” that allows members of both parties to invoke a virtual veto of a nominee. But Trump resorted to his standard viciousness, saying “Democrats like Schumer, Warner, Kaine, Booker, Schiff, and others, SLEAZEBAGS ALL.” He called the process “unconstitutional” and a “hoax” (of course), and lied that it would prevent him from ever getting a nominee confirmed…

“…in California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Virginia, and other places, where there is, coincidentally, the highest level of crime and corruption.”

For the record, the highest levels of crime and corruption are almost entirely in red states.

Among Trump’s postings were several that were just rabidly partisan memes. They contained messages that reflected the hatred that he has for fellow Americans. But worse, he was exhibiting his most fascistic aspirations by calling for the persecution of his political foes. For instance…

This morning Trump posted these comments calling for the arrest and incarceration (and worse) of Democrats.This is more evidence of his authoritarian aspirations and aversion to hatred for democracy. #TrumpIsAFascist

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-07-30T17:21:37.228Z

All of this is more evidence of the sociopathic sickness that courses through Trump’s veins. He is a bitter, hostile, vengeful, malignant narcissist, who should never be entrusted with power. And the sooner he is removed from office the better off the nation – and the world – will be.

The King of Conspiracy Theories Whines that Democrats Don’t Talk Enough About How Awesome He Is

Posted by on July 27, 2025 at 2:12 pm. 0 Comments :

There has never been a time in American politics when the prominence of crackpot conspiracy theories and their purveyors has been more closely associated with widely distributed media and high ranking government officials, including the current Crackpot-in-Chief, Donald Trump. The promotion of these former fringe dwellers to the mainstream of right-wing politics is having a noticeably deleterious effect on modern culture.

Donald Trump, Snowflakes

Nowhere is that effect more evident than in and around Trump and his fellow fruitcakes. It is often said that every allegation that Trump makes against others is a confession of his own crimes and misconduct. And Trump’s relentless attacks on Democrats, the media, foreign leaders, and even his own MAGA and GOP comrades, is further proof of just how deranged he has become. For instance…

SEE THIS: Trump Says He Doesn’t Want His Past ‘Weakling’ Supporters Who Bought Into the ‘BS’ Epstein Hoax

In a profoundly bizarre press conference with the European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, Trump repeatedly wandered off into unrelated tangents. His mental acuity is so damaged that he is unable to focus on any subject in detail for more than a few seconds. During one of these schizoid detours, Snowflake Trump complained that it is Democrats who are obsessed with conspiracy theories. Trump raged that…

“Our country was dead. We had a dead country. Because of an incompetent president and incompetent Democrats. All they know how to do is talk and think about conspiracy theories and nonsense. If they’d waste their time talking about America being great again, it would be so much nicer, so much easier.”

First of all, what Trump is describing as a dead country was anything but that. The economy was booming. Job creation was at record levels. And our international allies respected us. President Biden had restored the health and prosperity of the nation following Trump’s failures and his deadly mismanagement of the COVID pandemic.

More to the point. Trump’s accusation that the only things that Democrats want to talk about are “conspiracy theories and nonsense” is not only untrue, it’s a description of Trump’s rhetorical fixations. Recently Trump has been spewing nonsense about his relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, while making multiple, contradictory excuses for why he refuses to release the files in the custody of his Justice Department.

Furthermore, in a flagrant attempt to deflect from the Epstein matter, Trump and his crew have fabricated a ludicrous conspiracy that they say was orchestrated by President Obama to charge Russia with election interference. Those charges, however, were well documented and even agreed to by Republicans, including Trump’s Secretary of State, Marco Rubio.

Trump is the unchallenged King of Conspiracy Theories. In the past he championed the lies that Obama was a Muslim born in Kenya. He advocated the death penalty for five Black men who were falsely accused of murder. And his present adventures in conspiratorial intrigue even devolve into preposterous matters such as his demented preoccupation with the menacing horror of windmills that he promises to protect us all from.

ON WINDMILLS…TRUMP: Windmills are killing us!DON QUIXOTE: More than thirty monstrous giants appear…and it is a great service to God to wipe such a wicked brood from the face of the earthTrump is INSANE!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-07-27T16:34:52.137Z

Trump’s petulant whining about windmills is a heaping pile of bullpucky. He complains about them ruining the scenery, producing energy that is too expensive, being built only in China, and rotting in the fields. All of which are gross misrepresentations of reality. In the past he has said that they cause cancer, kill birds, and make whales go insane. More recently he lied that there are no windmills in China.

It remains one of the great mysteries of modern times how anyone can believe anything that Trump says, or support him as a leader. And it says something acutely depressing about a certain small segment of the American electorate. But on a positive note, Trump’s fumbling on the Epstein affair might just be shaking some of his cult followers out of their trance. Keep hope alive.
