Mike Johnson Warns the Media of Threats By Communists, But Ignores the Real Threats By Trump

Posted by on July 14, 2026 at 2:37 pm. 0 Comments :

The flailing desperation of Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican confederates is ramping up feverishly as the midterm elections get closer, and their prospects for holding Congress are deteriorating at – as Trump might put it- levels never seen before.

Donald Trump and Mike Johnson

The form that the Trumpist retreat is taking is a replication of the “Red Scare” of the 1950s, when Republicans saw communists in every shadow and around every corner preparing to pounce on vulnerable Americans and infecting them with the poison of Pinko propaganda. Trump himself posted a comment on his own personal propaganda platform, Truth Social, proposing to outlaw political thought and speech that he doesn’t like. Just like his hero Vladimir Putin does in Russia.

Taking his orders from Dear Leader Trump, House Squeaker MAGA Mike Johnson is mow also fear mongering about scary, but imaginary, communists. Johnson’s morning press briefing was a full blown “commies are on your doorstep plotting to kill and your family” tirade. He let loose a blast of explosive diarhetorical bombast warning that the long-fabled “red scare” is upon us, and our literal survival is at stake. He said in part (because in full it’s too tedious and insane) that…

“These crazy little Mamdanis who are popping up all around the country, they are a danger to you and your family. This is not a game…So we are here as the Republican Party to stand on the founding principles of the greatest nation in the history of the world. It is our duty to do that.

“And we’re doing it on behalf of all of you. Even the journalists who don’t agree with our policies all the time. You better agree on these principles because that’s what keeps you free. By the way, it’s what keeps the press free, okay? This is essential for your well-being and your family…We’re arguing whether or not freedom is going to survive…We’re in a war.”

Mike Johnson: "Even the journalists who don't agree with our policies all the time — you better agree on these principles. Because that's what keeps you free."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-07-14T15:19:48.074Z

OH NOES! Not “crazy little Mamdanis” popping up all the place. Never mind that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is one of the most popular public figures in America today. That’s what makes them such a threat to me and my family, in the eyes of Trump’s MAGA-tists.

That’s pretty frightening, isn’t it? But Johnson’s alarm at what he sees as threats to the free press is even more frightening. Not because there is anything rational about it. But because he is so utterly oblivious to the actual threats that Trump poses to the media.

Trump has been referring to the free press in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people,” for years. He has filed dozens of lawsuits intended to punish and intimidate any journalists who dare to report honestly about him. He shepherds corporations run by sycophantic, right-wing, billionaires through the regulatory hurdles that Trump controls in his administration. He has even had journalists arrested for accurately reporting his documented words and deeds.

Ironically, Trump 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.

What’s more, Trump and his radical, totalitarian, comrades couldn’t even define communism. They just use the word as an all-purpose pejorative to whip up fear in their equally ignorant cult followers. So they call all Democrats – and particularly Social Democrats – communists. But in reality, Democratic Socialists are in the mainstream of American politics. They are responsible for things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more.

It’s not a coincidence that those are among the most popular programs in the nation’s history. And that’s another thing that frightens the MAGA-tists and Trump. It leaves him so discombobulated that he does pitiful and preposterous things like this…

Putin Prodigy Trump Calls to Criminalize Democratic Socialism and Deport Its Leaders

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

The desperation of Donald Trump is revealing itself in ever more obvious and troubling ways. Despite his notable mental impairment, it is difficult to believe that he isn’t aware of just how unpopular he and his policies are. If were were truly as oblivious as he appears, he wouldn’t be acting out with such frenzied panic as his electoral prospects deteriorate.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

As the midterm elections approach, Trump is escalating his war on democracy. He has installed a political crony, Bill Pulte, in the position of acting Director of National Intelligence for the express purpose of weaponizing the agency in order to obstruct Democrats from voting in November. He is also pressuring Republicans in Congress to pass his phony “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) by any means necessary, and for the same purpose.

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

However, Trump may feel that he wasn’t making himself clear on his intentions to subvert free and fair democratic elections. So he took the additional step of posting a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to clarify his his commitment to totalitarian rule. The comment said simply “DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM MUST BE CRIMINALIZED; LEADERS DEPORTED.”

Trump is reacting to the recent electoral victories of progressive Democrats that he ignorantly calls “communists.” But now he has escalated his reaction to an outright advocacy of criminalizing political thought that he doesn’t like. Just like his hero Vladimir Putin does in Russia. The fact that Trump thinks it’s appropriate to outlaw political speech, and punish people with whom he disagrees, should outrage American patriots who cherish the Constitution and the principles it embodies.

That wasn’t the only outrageous commentary by Trump today. He also addressed his war against Iran that he is losing. In another Truth Social comment he raged that…

“The Hormuz Strait is OPEN [but also that] We are reinstating the THE IRANIAN BLOCKADE [and that the U.S.A] will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped.”

So Trump is declaring (for the umpteenth time) that the Strait of Hormuz is open. But at the same time he declares that he is blockading it. And to make matters worse, he announces that the U.S. will charging 20% on all cargo for every ship that seeks to pass through the Strait. That, however. is not keeping it open. Rather, it is holding it hostage. And even though he has no legal jurisdiction to follow through, he issues the threat that will impede trade and raise the cost of all products that traverse the Strait.

Finally, Trump’s dementia is flaring up in a big way. He also posted a comment on Truth Social declaring – without any link to a corroborating source – that he has a “59% Approval Rating.” But it appears that he mixed up reports that were actually of his disapproval rating. There are no surveys that put him anywhere near 59% approval. On the other hand, there are many that found his disapproval at that level. (Click on this tweet for more polls).

You would be really hard pressed to find better examples of cognitive incoherence. It would be bad enough if it were your uncle. But it’s totally intolerable for the president of the United States. And yet, Trump’s MAGA confederates continue to tolerate it. Hopefully they won’t be around to fluff their Dear Leader after the midterm elections.

Big Baby Trump Throws a Tantrum, Refuses to Sign Housing Bill Unless He Gets Voter Suppression

Posted by on July 10, 2026 at 2:48 pm. 0 Comments :

The childish antics of America’s Toddler-in-Chief, Donald Trump, continue to cast an embarrassing shadow over his occupation of the White House and, unfortunately, the entire nation. His malignant narcissism is always the driving force for every decision he makes and is revealed in every public utterance.

Donald Trump

On Friday Trump provided yet another example of his obsessive fixation on himself and what matters most to him, rather than what matters to the American people who he is supposed to be serving. Lately Trump’s attention has been focused singularly on shoving his absurdly named “Save America Act” down the throats of the Congress and the nation’s voters who mostly oppose it. In recent surveys just 37 percent of Americans said they support it. And it is no mystery why…

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

Trump took precious time away from his critical presidential duties of cleaning up fountains and monuments, and building vanity tributes to himself, in order to further advance his Voter Suppression Act. The comment that he posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, raged that…

“I will not sign the Housing Bill, which has been fully approved by Congress and sent to the White House, in PROTEST over the fact that the United States Senate is not capable of passing THE SAVE AMERICA ACT […] If the Dumocrats, or any RINO (or worse!) working with them, do not allow a positive Vote on SAVE AMERICA, TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, and pass this.”

Big Baby Trump is throwing another tantrum with his refusal to sign the Housing Bill, because the GOP-run Senate won't (can't) pass his so-called "Save America Act" (aka Voter suppression Act).Trump is prioritizing rigging the election for Republicans over helping Americans afford housing.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-07-10T16:30:36.670Z

OH NOES! Trump is withholding his signature “in PROTEST!” And if he doesn’t get his way, well, you better watch out! He knows that he and his party are facing electoral doom in the upcoming midterm elections so, in desperation, he is making impotent threats to prioritize a blatantly partisan bill intended to rig the election in favor of his MAGA Republicans, over enacting bipartisan legislation that would actually help Americans to afford housing.

What’s more, the Housing Bill passed both Houses of Congress with veto-proof margins. Trump’s Voter Suppression bill can’t even get enough votes in the Senate to pass from Republicans. So Trump’s threat to “TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER” is pitifully hollow. And if Trump actually fails to sign the Housing Bill by midnight, and doesn’t veto it, it will become law without his signature anyway.

For the record, the Housing Bill was originally a legislative achievement that Republicans held up with pride. Even Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, tweeted that Trump would sign the bill and called it “one of the most significant pieces of housing affordability legislation in American history,” and also said that the “historic bill signing is another promise made, promise kept.”

Not quite! That was all before Trump flipped on it. A few days after Leavitt’s tweet, Trump whined that “It’s a big yawn…To me, compared to the SAVE America Act, just about everything is a big yawn.” Which is emblematic of Trump’s attitude toward governing. If it doesn’t matter to him, it doesn’t matter. And just about everything that matters to the American people is “big yawn.” Is anyone surprised that Trump’s approval rating is in the toilet?

Republican James Comer Gives Fox News a Damn Good Reason to Vote Democratic and Flip the House

Posted by on July 6, 2026 at 4:52 pm. 0 Comments :

The upcoming midterm elections in November are going to have a profound impact on the remaining two years of Donald Trump’s occupation of the White House. It is likely that Democrats will regain the majority in the House of Representatives, and have a good chance of doing the same in the Senate.

Fox News Sad

The prospects of Trump transforming from a Screech Owl to a Lame Duck next year are greater with each passing day. He is doing virtually nothing to advance the campaigns of Republicans. He even said to reporters that “I Don’t Care About the Midterms.” Instead, he is focusing almost exclusively on vanity projects like the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and his golden ballroom. He hardly even mentions anymore the war against Iran that he’s losing. The closest he comes to articulating a campaign theme is to regurgitate the “red scare” paranoia of the 1950s.

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

In support of his Dear Leader, Republican Oversight Committee chair, James Comer, made another of his nearly daily appearances on Fox News. But during the course of what he thought was a segment that would juice Trump’s standing with the public, Comer offered what is more likely a motivating message for Democrats.

“This is just a perfect example of the Democrats. And I think that all they’re gonna do if they flip the House and become the majority of the House is investigate and harass Donald Trump.”

Republican James Comer is making a great case for voting for Democrats and flipping the House. He says that they will investigate and harass Trump.GOOD! There will finally be some law and order, rather than the sycophantic cowardice and puppetry of the GOP Congress.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-07-06T20:14:30.224Z

OH NO! NOT THAT! Comer is threatening that if Democrats are elected they will do exactly what Democrats, most independents, and even some Republicans, want them to do. This is the sort of message that will drive voters who are tired of – and disgusted by – Trump to the polls in record numbers. Surveys show that the American people are through tolerating Trump’s corruption and lies.

Voters see Trump enriching himself by billions of dollars, mostly via scams, while they are struggling to pay for gas, groceries, housing, and healthcare. And they see him wasting scarce taxpayer revenue on trivialities like alleged DC beautification, or worse, atrocities like ICE thugs persecuting innocent immigrants and even some citizens.

The onscreen message on Fox News during Comer’s segment said that a “Dem Report Claims Trump Corrupted America 250.” Which is some more inadvertently accurate messaging from the folks at Fox News. There is indeed a well researched report that reveals how Trump has hijacked the “America 250” project to divert funds to his own “Freedom 250” scam.

The spectacle of watching Comer accidentally help Democratic campaigns is not a one-time mistake by Trump regime confederates. Trump’s former press Secretary, Kellyanne Conway, has done it as well…

Trump himself has unintentionally characterized himself as a recidivist criminal, and unwittingly reminded people of his frequent illegal activities…

WOW! Trump Honors Two Democratic Senate Candidates By Comparing Them to Beloved American Icons

Posted by on July 4, 2026 at 2:18 pm. 1 Comments :

It’s the 4th of July – Independence Day – And throughout the country the American people are celebrating “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It’s a day when partisan debates about politics are set aside in favor of embracing our fellow citizens and with appreciation for the principles that guide our nation.

Donald Trump

Unless, that is, you are Donald Trump and members of his MAGA cult who are predictably tainting this otherwise unifying holiday in order to malign their political foes and spread hatred for fellow citizens who dare to disagree with them. For his part, Trump and his minions have embarked on a new crusade to reanimate the “red scare” era of the 1950s by calling every democrat a communist.

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

On July 4th Trump posted some comments to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that he thinks are appropriate messages on this occasion. But as is often the case, Trump missed the target for his hostilities and may have inadvertently helped his Democratic enemies. Trump posted these…

Bringing the nation together on the 4th of July, Trump compares Democratic Senate candidates (James Talarico and Jon Ossoff) to two comedy icons (Peewee Herman and Alfred E. Neuman) who are beloved by the American people.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-07-04T19:22:12.880Z

Trump’s intention was to mock Democratic Senate candidates James Talarico of Texas, and Jon Ossoff of Georgia. But he badly miscalculated. Peewee Herman and Alfred E. Neuman are both giants of American popular culture, and are treasured representatives of positive values, strong will, and good humor. Is there anything more American than that?

What’s more, Trump’s feeble attempt to make these associations negative fails pitifully because both Talarico and Ossoff are either beating or tied with their Republican opponents. So even if we were to concede that the comparisons are effective mockery, what does it say about the Republicans who are (or will be) losing to them? And what does it say about Trump, whose sad memes fail to make any point other than how pathetic he is? Such as this one…

DUMBOLD TRUMP posts a unifying message for America on the 4th of July… ?

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-07-04T16:56:14.452Z

REALLY? Like Trump and his perennially whiny cult are always so happy? It would be much harder to make similar comparisons to Trump, because there aren’t any lovable fictional characters that merge humor with nastiness, ignorance, and ego. Perhaps the Tasmanian Devil or a Nazi version of the Hulk.

The only thing that Trump is accomplishing with his childish memes is to remind everyone of how weak and frightened he is. He knows how badly he is losing in the electoral polls, and with his own approval ratings. Even though he tries to pretend otherwise. At least he has his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, to lean on for wild and desperate attacks on Democrats. For instance, this despicable smear aimed at Talarico…

Trump’s Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt Tells Fox News that Gen Z is Lazy, So Send Them to Iran

Posted by on July 3, 2026 at 3:44 pm. 1 Comments :

The affordability crisis in America has been the most prominent storyline of the 2026 midterm election year. The hardships endured by people trying to cover bills for gas, groceries, housing, healthcare, and more, have been uppermost on the minds of voters, as well as most conscientious politicians. Which, by definition, leaves out Donald Trump.

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

Donald Trump and Karoline Leavitt

Throughout this debate Trump has distinguished himself by firmly taking positions on both sides. He has swung wildly from claiming credit for ending the the crisis, to insisting that it is a Democratic hoax that never existed in the first place. Most recently, Trump announced a campaign slogan that will surely resonate with the nation’s struggling families…

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

In an attempt to reinforce the Trump regime’s position that affordability isn’t really a problem, Trump dispatched his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, to her regular post on Fox News for a friendly interview with Jesse Watters. The segment delivered some of the most callously oblivious commentaries on the subject imaginable.

Watters: Some of these kids, and I call them kids because they’re in their 20s and they’ve never had real jobs and they’re complaining things are expensive in the U.S. Yes, things are expensive when you don’t have a real job. Do you think that’s getting traction? Complaining?
Leavitt: Unfortunately, I do because this generation, my generation, I hate to say it, Gen Z and those younger than me have been raised with just silver spoons in their mouths, just getting everything handed to them. That’s not the values this country was built on. […]
Watters: Is it laziness?
Leavitt: A little bit.
Watters: Because the professor said the country’s corrupt. It’s evil. And we just need to shake them down and hand money out.
Leavitt: It’s laziness and it’s liberal indoctrination. You bring up a great point about our education system. […]
Watters: I say if they misbehave just make all these young kids join the army.
Leavitt: Send them to Cuba. Send them to Iran.

So to start off, Watters asserts that the only reason things are perceived as expensive by young people is that they don’t have “real” jobs. And Leavitt agrees, accusing them of having been born into privilege and never knowing the meaning of work. Elaborating, they both malign them as “lazy.” They also both neglect to recognize that it isn’t just young people who are plagued by the economic burdens of the Trump agenda. Americans of all ages are well aware of Trump’s disastrous effect on the U.S. economy.

Leavitt and Watters are delivering a great message from the MAGA team in an election year during which they are already projected to suffer significant losses. They are telling a critical voting bloc that if you’re troubled with how expensive things are, it’s just because you’re a lazy communist who has been indoctrinated by evil college professors. Even worse, Leavitt and Watters propose that these spoiled, youthful, complaining, ingrates be forced to join the army and be sent to Cuba or Iran. That’ll teach ’em.

Leavitt went on to promote homeschooling and Christian schools for parents who “don’t want their children being taught these communist and liberal ideas slammed down their throat.” She prefers the fascist and conservative ideas embraced by Trump and his MAGA confederates. Which is an angle that Democrats will be happy to see Republicans adopting as November approaches. As is often the case, what Republicans are doing to advance their agenda will be truly fantastic – for Democrats.

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.

ELECTION RIGGING? Trump Pays Nearly a Billion Dollars to 9 Critical States in Pre-Midterm Bribes

Posted by on July 1, 2026 at 2:29 pm. 0 Comments :

The manic anxieties of Donald Trump are bubbling to the surface as the midterm elections get closer and he realizes that he and his MAGA Republican Party are facing an epic electoral catastrophe.

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

Trump Baby on Cash Pile

The prospects for Democrats regaining majorities in the House of Representatives and the Senate are growing and are strong enough that Trump and his confederates are becoming increasingly desperate to engage in some sort of election interference. That has already begun with the Trump regime spewing nonsense about Democrats being communists who are purposely trying to destroy America.

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

Another tactic in Trump’s bag of dirty tricks is his use of federal resources to buy the support of state officials and voters. The latest example of this came in a series of posts to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, wherein he announced that he is distributing nearly a billion dollars to nine states that he claims is for disaster relief. The list of states is conspicuously partisan in that they are all states that he won in 2024, including…

Georgia: $318.3 Million; Michigan: $32.1 Million; Louisiana: $8.6 Million; Wisconsin: $22.6 Million; Missouri: $27.6 Million; Idaho: $4.5 Million; Mississippi: $11 Million; Kansas: $5.5 Million; and Florida: $415.9 Million; Total = 846.1Million.

Trump didn’t say where these funds would be coming from. Under ordinary circumstances disaster relief would be provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). But Trump has had a rocky relationship with them that has gone back and forth between reluctant cooperation and outright detestation.

For instance, in January Trump announced a batch of dubious disbursements providing millions of dollars to many of the same states. He posted on Truth social that “We are working closely with FEMA.”

However, a year prior to that, and just after his second inauguration, Trump posted a comment in all caps saying that “FEMA SHOULD BE TERMINATED! IT HAS BEEN SLOW AND TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE. INDIVIDUAL STATES SHOULD HANDLE STORMS, ETC.”

That’s the sort of derangement that we are seeing from Trump in ever more frequent lapses of his cognitive abilities. Yet he remains mentally stable enough to execute his devious schemes to acquire and retain power and wealth at the expense of the American people.

The problem is that these types of mental impairments are degenerative, and we can only expect them to get worse as time goes by. And sadly, no one in his family or political circles cares enough about him or the nation to have him committed.

UPDATE: It is now being reported that under Trump FEMA has actually declined $227 million in disaster relief to four blue states that didn’t vote for him.

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

Posted by on June 29, 2026 at 3:08 pm. 1 Comments :

As the 2026 midterm elections approach, Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican confederates are becoming increasingly anxious about just how brutally they will be beaten. Current polling indicates that a massive Blue Wave is building momentum that could severely cripple the GOP for the remainder of Trump’s occupation of the white House, and beyond.

Donald Trump and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

Consequently, Trump is ramping up the hyperbole in his daily incoherent rants. He’s giving deranged speeches that consist mainly of infantile insults aimed at his perceived enemies, exaltations of himself for his vanity driven Capitol “beautification” projects, and dispensing lies pretty much every time he opens his mouth. Most of all, he is trying to malign Democrats as anti-American traitors, but his characterization of them as villains from 1950s comic books isn’t helping his own self image at all.

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

On Monday morning Trump dispatched his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, to her regular post on Fox News to assist his failing PR campaign. It doesn’t seem like she did much to help. But she gave it her all in attempting to advance Trump’s latest desperate effort to portray Democrats as communists. She engaged in the following exchange with Fox’s Lawrence Jones…

Leavitt: These are radical, Marxist ideas that have never worked in the history of the world. And I think that it’s a choice coming up between communism and common sense. That’s how the president views it. And that’s why Americans need to vote for this president and Republican Party and the common sense ideals that make this the greatest nation in the history of the world.
Jones: Do you think this helps the president and the Republican Party during the midterms that they have decided in this Democratic Socialist civil war that this is the new Democratic Party?
Leavitt: It certainly is.

Leavitt: "That's why Americans need to for this president" (when will people be voting for Trump again?)

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-06-29T12:42:33.037Z

This is yet another example of dimwitted, purposefully misleading, Republicans demonstrating that they have absolutely no idea what the definition of communism is. They just use the word as an all-purpose pejorative to frighten their equally ignorant cult followers. They might as well be warning about a pack of invading Sasquatch soldiers.

Leavitt and Trump and other hive-minded Republicans were triggered by recent primary victories by progressive Democrats. Some of them identify as Democratic Socialists, who are not communists. In fact, Democratic Socialists are in the mainstream of American politics that brought about things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more of the most popular programs in the nation’s history.

What’s more, the GOP’s efforts to brand Democrats across the country as Socialists is small minded. The Democratic Party is big enough to embrace progressive Democrats in blue states and conservative Democrats in red and purple states. It isn’t one size fits all with blinded purity tests, like Republicans.

Communism, on the other hand, is a theory of government that proposes eliminating private ownership and placing the means of production in the control of the government. There is absolutely no Democrat who has supported anything even close to those ideas. Ironically, only Trump has advocated for those policies. And in office he has been exerting state power over previously independent institutions such as banking, defense, technology, transportation, and even the free press.

Trump has wielded that power by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, and even forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government, or to him. It’s hard to tell if knows the difference. It’s as close to communism as any American president has ever come.

As for the media, while Trump has defunded public media such as PBS, NPR, and even Radio Free America, he has literally sued media conglomerates for billions of dollars, forcing them to either pay up or suffer retribution dished out by regulatory agencies over which he has assumed corrupt control. And too often they have acquiesced. Communist leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un are watching with envy.

The closer we get to the midterms, the more brazen Trump is getting. Just this month he has posted comments on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, warning that…

“In a time when there is a powerful Communist Movement taking place in our Country, one more dangerous than World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor, or September 11th.”

And that…

“I’d be the Greatest Communist in History. I’d give free rent, free houses, free food, everything is free. Unfortunately, after two or three years, the Country where this is taking place would fail. […] These are not social Dumocrats, these are hard core, godless Communists.”

So far, none of this is succeeding in improving Trump’s standing with the American people. Which means that, knowing Trump, we can expect him to continue to sharpen his attacks and make them even less comprehensible. And of course, he will lie and misrepresent reality to his MAGA cult at every opportunity. As an example of how far he will diverge from reality, Trump is claiming to have his “Highest Poll Numbers Ever.” No, really…

For the record…Trump's poll numbers at RECORD LOWS! But even worse, he's saying here that they are the highest ever "DESPITE" Iran not having a nuclear weapon??? Someone on his incompetent, asskissing staff needs to tell him that's backwards. And also untrue.

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.

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.

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.

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.
