Trump Declares that He Will Not Negotiate with Democrats to Avoid Shutdown, Then Blames Democrats

If there is still anyone who doesn’t believe that Donald Trump yearns to be an unchallengeable totalitarian dictator, he is doing his darnedest to satisfy all doubters as to his authoritarian aspirations. And he’s doing it openly and without a sliver of shame or any pretense of respect for the democratic principles that shaped America.

Donald Trump WTF

With only a week before the U.S. government will shutdown unless Congress passes legislation to keep it open, Trump has demonstrated that he not only has no interest in keeping the government open, he is actively endeavoring to shut it down. To hell with whoever is hurt by it. To Trump, obedience to his MAGA-sty is paramount. And any dissenters will be persecuted.

SEE THIS: Crybaby Trump Whines About Getting Bad Press and Demands that the Offending Media Be Terminated

On Tuesday morning trump posted an interminably long and tedious rant to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, whining about the current standoff in Congress. Naturally, it was jam-packed with lies stirred in with his unique brand of bizarre and incoherent babbling. He began with a typically arrogant declaration that set the tone for the rest of his heinous harangue

“After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open, I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive. They are threatening to shut down the Government of the United States.”

And there you have it. Trump has determined that there can be no productive meetings with Democrats, despite not having had a single meeting. In fact, before he even made this determination, he had already told his MAGA cronies in Congress not to negotiate with the Democrats. That’s a certain path toward failure and a shutdown of the government that will be entirely the fault of Trump and the GOP.

Trump doesn’t seem to understand that the legislation to continue to fund the government requires 60 votes in the Senate. Which means it cannot pass without Democratic votes. Yet, Republicans are proposing a short term bill that would just kick the ball down to November 21 (only two months), when their non-negotiating tactics would resume right before Thanksgiving.

In the meantime, Trump is unloading his standard barrage of utterly ridiculous falsehoods intended to malign the Democratic Party. In his posting he listed the following agenda items that he attributed to Democrats…

  • Free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!)
  • Force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors
  • Have dead people on the Medicaid roles
  • Allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits
  • Try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World
  • Allow men to play in women’s sports
  • And essentially create Transgender operations for everybody.

Aside from being profoundly stupid, not a single one of those “policies” has been proposed, drafted, or otherwise advocated by any Democrat in Congress. And none of them are being sought in the current negotiations. The only one that came close to any actual policy favored by Democrats is their effort to renew the Obamacare health insurance subsidies – for citizens. And Republicans are adamantly opposed to that. Without it premiums will skyrocket.

But it’s not as if Trump ever cared about accuracy – or reality. In addition to the above, Trump also yammered in his posting that he “[won] the Presidential Election…IN A HISTORIC LANDSLIDE.” A landslide of precisely 1.5%. He also said that “Few people voted for what [Democrats] represent, which would lead to the destruction of America.” That would be a few equal to 75,000,000. And he closed saying that…

“[Democrats] want our now thriving Country closed. I’ll be happy to meet with them if they agree to the Principles in this Letter.”

In other words, Trump will meet with Democrats when they capitulate to his autocratic demands and abandon any attempt to serve the needs of the American people. That aint gonna happen. He knows it. So he is singularly responsible for the likely shutdown that is coming. But he and his MAGA GOP will try to blame Democrats for the shutdown anyway. He will blame them for not negotiating with him after he refused to negotiate entirely. Will anyone outside of his MAGA cult buy that? Not likely.

Trump HATES You and Half of America, As He Told MAGA-tists at the Charlie Kirk Memorial Hatefest

Leave it to Donald Trump to transform any public event into a narcissistic regalia of the resplendence of Donald Trump. He can’t go thirty seconds without reinforcing his mythic magnificence in the minds of his MAGA minions and cult devotees.

Donald Trump, Newspapers, Baby, Hate

So naturally, Trump’s performance at the memorial for slain right-wing organizer Charlie Kirk was just another opportunity for him to exalt himself, to praise his alleged accomplishments, and to malign his political foes. It’s what he always does whatever the purpose of the gathering. And this particular forum was ideal to further that fixation.

SEE THIS: The Charlie Kirk Canonizers Cherish Free Speech So Much They Will Prohibit Anyone From Using It

While Trump muttered a few of the expected sympathies for the tragically fallen martyr of MAGA, he reflexively veered of course much of the time to babble about things that had nothing to with Kirk. For instance

  • Deploying military troops against Americans in Chicago and other Democratic cities.
  • The suspension of Jimmy Kimmel and other assaults on free speech.
  • The weaponization of the Justice Department, saying that they will investigate “a network of radical left maniacs.”
  • The Trump Taxes – aka tariffs – that are fueling inflation.
  • That he hates his political opponents.

The last item on that list was an especially repulsive point to make at a memorial service where Kirk’s widow invoked the model of Jesus in forgiving the man who killed her husband. Trump, on the other tiny hand, felt compelled to proclaim that, contrary to Ms. Kirk, he hates his political opponents, saying that Kirk “did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents and I don’t want the best for them.”

How heartwarming.At a memorial service where Charlie Kirk's widow cited the example of Jesus to forgive his killer, Trump boasts that he HATES his political opponents. Which says so much about Trump and his MAGA cult followers.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-09-22T08:50:17.785Z

Kinda gets ya all misty inside, don’t it? But that was just a a morsel of the sour treats that Trump had for his flock. Here are a few more…

“Many of these people, by the way, are paid a lot of money to do this. [And that] hopefully we’re going to be finding out through the DOJ who those people are.”
In other words, weaponization of the Justice Department.

“…the violence comes largely from the left. You don’t hear that from too many people, do you?”
One of the reasons you don’t hear that is because it isn’t true. In fact, the Trump regime disappeared a study by the Justice Department proving that most violence is committed by the right.

“The election of, oh, that beautiful day, November 5th, 2024. Do you remember that day? It was nine months ago. What a day that was. I mean, we had a pretty good day in the first one. And I must tell you on the second one, we had a phenomenal day, but a lot of bad things happened.”
He’s still promulgating the “The Big Lie” that he won in 2020.

“Tariffs are making us rich again, richer than anybody ever thought was possible, and the only one challenging them are people that hate our country.”
Whatever “riches” have been received are from the American people who are paying for Trump’s tariffs.

“We stopped the crime in Washington. Took 12 days. Now you can go to restaurants.”
That’s funny. Because Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, keeps bragging about all the arrests that are being made in D.C, despite Trump having eliminated all crime.

“The Department of Justice is also investigating networks of radical left maniacs who fund organized fuel and perpetrate political violence.”
He’s talking about his probes of Antifa, which doesn’t exist.

“…commentators who this week are screaming fascism over a canceled late night TV show where the anchor had no talent and no ratings.”
Trump can’t let go of his having been mocked and ridiculed by a comedian. So he got him taken off the air in violation of the Constitution. [Update: Kimmel is returning Tuesday night, tomorrow]

“No side in American politics has a monopoly on disturbed or misguided people. But there’s one part of our political community which believes they have a monopoly on truth, goodness and virtue and concludes they have also a monopoly on power, thought and speech.”
Trump doesn’t realize that he’s talking about himself and the MAGA Republican Party.

“We have to bring back religion to America, because without borders, law and order, and religion, you really don’t have a country anymore.”

That’s just a sampling of the savage tone of Trump’s funereal narrative. He couldn’t care less about the welfare of Kirk, or his MAGA flock, or the violence that he is inciting with his vile rhetoric. And just in case it wasn’t clear enough when he said it, he also had his Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, drive the point home (watch only if you have a strong stomach)…

Stephen Miller – aka Santa Monica Goebbels keeps say "you, you, you…" Who the F**K is he talking about? He's blaming all Democrats. Because he wants to incite violence against them.

Trump’s 97% Solution is Further Evidence of His Declining Mental Acuity and Pathological Lying

The obsession that Donald Trump has with himself is a classic symptom of the malignant narcissism that many have suggested he suffers from, including his own niece, Mary Trump, who is also a clinical psychologist. She even won a court case wherein he tried to block the publication of her book (Too Much and Never Enough) that included her diagnoses.

Trump Lies

On Friday Trump held court at the White House to dispense more of the disinformation that fuels his phony facade of leadership. And true to form, rather than demonstrating any grasp of the critical issues that the nation faces, he was fixated on his own reputation in the media. And not for the first time…

SEE THIS: Trump Whines that ‘All They Do Is Hit Trump’ and Decrees That ‘They’re Not Allowed To Do That’

This most recent Trump tantrum was triggered by a reporter’s question about the “cancel culture” tactics that Trump and his MAGA minions have been employing against Jimmy Kimmel, and anyone else who dares to criticize Trump. In his reply Trump whined that…

“George Slopadopolous had to pay $16 million to me because of what he said, and that’s ABC. Your network had to pay more than that. I think that’s very sad. I think that reporting has to be at least accurate to an extent. Again, when somebody is given, 97 percent of the stories are bad about a person, that’s no longer free speech. That’s just cheating, and they cheat. And they become really members of the Democratic National Committee is what they are.”

WANNABE FASCIST DICTATOR SAYS WHAT?1?? Trump is making up the 97% number.2?? Secondly, if he's getting a lot of bad press, it's because he's doing a lot of bad things.3?? He's making himself the arbiter of free speech, which is the opposite of free speech.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-09-20T10:04:35.734Z

Let’s just set aside Trump’s typically infantile nickname for George Stephanopoulos, and his lie that any network “had to pay” him anything. They didn’t have to pay. They chose to pay, in order to advance their corporate interests at the expense of the principles endowed by the Constitution.

More to the point, Trump’s claim that 97% of the stories about him are bad is a number that was fabricated by the ultra-rightist Media Research Center. They regard any documented reporting that casts a negative light on Trump as “bad,” even it’s just truthful. So a story about him sending troops to D.C. is counted as bad. If Trump really wants fewer bad stories about him, he needs to stop doing so many bad things. Problem solved.

Even worse, though, is Trump’s assertion that honest reporting about him is “no longer free speech.” That’s because, in his cockeyed cranium, anything that isn’t unflinchingly adoring is “fake news.” He even went on to say that it is illegal.

That’s the end game for Trump’s aspiring authoritarianism. He wants to outlaw any speech that doesn’t glorify him as a modern day messiah. He wants to muzzle everyone who speaks the unvarnished truth about him. He’s already putting his fascist boot down on Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel. And he’s filed numerous lawsuits to silence media outlets such as ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post, etc.

The good news is that, more often than not, when his victims fight back they win. So it is imperative that they exhibit more backbone in these situations. And if they don’t, then “we, the people,” need to let them know that we won’t stand for their cowardice and greed that is selling us – and America – down the river.

TRUMP'S BRAIN IS MUSH!After his embarrassingly bad lawsuit against the New York Times was thrown out, he says he's "winning" because Jon Karl of ABC News Is "guilty" of…Well, he doesn't say what.Except he's losing – BIGLY!MORE HERE: www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=67582

Trump Whines that ‘All They Do Is Hit Trump’ and Decrees That ‘They’re Not Allowed To Do That’

For the past few years Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans have belittled Democrats and liberals as “snowflakes” who were unable to tolerate a little criticism from their right-wing adversaries. The GOP sought to uplift themselves as models of manliness with spines of steel who could not be shaken by mere words or name-calling. This became a core symbol of their prideful self image.

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

Donald Trump, Snowflakes

In reality, there has been no one who has acted out more as a cowardly victim than Trump. He shrinks before the slightest scent of disapproval. He lashes out frantically in response to mildly negative remarks. And he employs howitzers to defend himself from house flies.

SEE THIS: Crybaby Trump Whines About Getting Bad Press and Demands that the Offending Media Be Terminated

In the wake of the Charlie Kirk shooting, much of the MAGA movement has complained that any criticism aimed at Kirk was tantamount to sacrilege. They insisted that it was insufficient to condemn all political violence, you must also kneel worshipfully before the fallen conservative organizer, even if his words and actions were blatantly offensive.

This canonization of Kirk has led to the vilification of anyone who fails to exhibit anything other than pure reverence. As a result, liberal critic like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel have suffered the wrath of the right and the punishment – as Jesse Watters of Fox News says – of being “thrown out of polite society.”

This week Kimmel was suspended from his program on ABC by the overlords at Disney. And their justification was that he had crossed a line of decency with regard to Kirk. That never actually happened, but the excuse was deployed anyway. Now however, Trump himself has shown that excuse to be a convenient lie. He told reporters that…

“Jimmy Kimmel was fired because he had bad ratings more than anything else. And he said a horrible thing about a great gentleman known as Charlie Kirk…And they should’ve fired him a long time ago. So you can call that free speech or not.”

Is Trump even capable of not lying?1?? Jimmy Kimmel was not fired. His show was suspended.2?? He doesn't have bad ratings. He's 2nd to Stephen Colbert.3?? He didn't say "a horrible thing" about Charlie Kirk. He was talking about the MAGA response.4?? It is definitely about free speech.

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-09-18T17:04:38.870Z

Oh. so according to Trump it was ratings that got Kimmel suspended – not fired (yet). Of course, none of what trump said was true. But that’s not exactly news. Later, on Air Force One, Trump elaborated on his views of Kimmel’s situation saying that…

“When you have a network and you have evening shows and all they do is hit Trump, that’s all they do — if you go back, I guess they haven’t had a conservative one in years, or something — when you go back and take a look, all they do is hit Trump. They’re licensed. They’re not allowed to do that. They’re an arm of the Democrat Party.”

Trump: You have evening shows and all they do is hit Trump. They're not allowed to do that

FactPost (@factpostnews.bsky.social) 2025-09-18T18:48:25.776920526Z

So now the reasoning behind Kimmel’s ouster is because Trump’s feelings have been hurt by all that darn criticism he inspires. What’s worse, Trump says explicitly that “They’re not allowed to do that.” You have to wonder under what set of rules he is playing by if disagreement, criticism, and mockery, are not allowed. Certainly not those spelled out in the Constitution.

True to form, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda – aka Fox News – comes to his defense. Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer, Sean Hannity did a segment Wednesday night wherein he claimed that, “I can’t find a single prominent conservative voice in the country that even remotely wanted, or hoped, or was pushing to get Jimmy Kimmel taken off the air.” Really? Not even Trump’s FCC chair, Brendan Carr and GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson. And of course Hannity’s BFF…

Sean Hannity predictably lying that no "prominent conservative" pushed for Jimmy Kimmel to be taken off the air.So Trump isn't a prominent conservative? In July he said "Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go…It’s really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!"

Fox News Flunky Jesse Watters Demands ‘Heinous’ Liberals Repent or Be Cast Out of Polite Society

From its very inception, the MAGA Republican movement has embraced the most vicious forms of denigration and defamation. They have taken their cues from their Dear Leader, Donald Trump, whose penchant for infantile insults and toxic tantrums are his most notoriously familiar character flaws.

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

Jesse Watters, Fox News

Which makes it all the more preposterous that they are now posing as the heralds of decency and civility, and the paragons of purity. Those have never been among the personality traits that any rational person would associate with them. Especially Trump himself, who regularly lashes out at anyone who dares to make even a mild criticism of him.

SEE THIS: Crybaby Trump’s Hysterical Posting that He’s Suing the New York Times for Hurting His Feelings

Naturally, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda – aka Fox News – is tirelessly on guard to defend Trump’s dishonor. And among the most ferocious defenders is the Fox News Senior Doofus, Jesse Watters. In an incredibly bizarre harangue, Watters unleashed his fury at everyone he blames for the increasing political violence in the country, including the shooting of ultra-conservative organizer, Charlie Kirk.

Of course, Watters blames Democrats and liberals, despite the fact that all of the available evidence proves that right-wingers are far more responsible for it. There was even a study conducted by the National Institute of Justice, an agency of the U.S. Justice Department, that confirmed that far right extremists were more violent. And in the midst of the current controversies, the DoJ disappeared the study. But none of that stopped Watters from raging that…

“These people are incapable of turning the temperature down. So it’s our responsibility to do it for them for the safety of the country and for their own safety. Their heinous movement should be politically destroyed, systematically dismantled. Their financial backing should be bankrupted, their media sponsors defeated [they will be] given one chance to confess and apologize. If they don’t, thrown out of polite society. […]

“And their acolytes in academia, behind the pulpit, in city councils and corporate America will be spotlighted and given one chance to confess and apologize. If they don’t, thrown out of polite society. We cannot live with people and work with people like this.”

Watters has some strange ideas about how to “turn the temperature down.” Apparently his recipe includes maligning his enemies as “heinous” and advocating for them to be “destroyed.” Although he generously offers them “one chance to confess” their sins. And if they submit and repent, then he won’t have them “thrown out of polite society.” How thoughtful. And not at all rhetorically hostile, is it?

It’s notable that Watters has aggregated every possible infidel in his decree. Teachers, pastors, politicians, businessmen, are all guilty of unspecified sins for which they must apologize. Because Watters and other good folks like him “cannot live with…people like this.” And who are the people like that? Well, Watters had decided before Kirk’s shooting suspect was even known. Last week he issued a declaration of war against some amorphous “they” who were responsible, saying that…

“They are at war with us. Whether we want to accept it or not, they are at war with us. And what are we going to do about it?”

Fox Host Jesse Watters: They are at war with us. Whether we want to accept it or not, they are at war with us. And what are we going to do about it?

Nikki McCann Ramírez (@nikkimcr.bsky.social) 2025-09-10T21:12:14.725Z

Everything that Watters is saying is consistent with what Trump has been saying. The MAGA-verse couldn’t care less about lowering the temperature. They want to eliminate everyone who fails to subjugate themselves to Der Fuhrer. And they aren’t shy about admitting it. But unfortunately for them, the rest of us are not going to lay down for them or kneel before Trumpler. We will stand up for the principles of liberty and democracy that America was founded on. We will do so peacefully and with open hearts. And if they don’t want to join us, they can throw themselves out of polite society.

Crybaby Trump’s Hysterical Posting that He’s Suing the New York Times for Hurting His Feelings

There has never been an American president whose skin was as thin as whiny baby Donald Trump. He rarely takes a rest from complaining about how horribly offended he is over even the most mild criticism or disagreement. And he lashes out petulantly at whoever dared to utter that insult.

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

Donald Trump, Wah

On Tuesday morning Trump provided yet another demonstration of his emotional tenderness with his announcement that he is suing the New York Times for … well, who knows what? He’s calling it defamation, but his filing doesn’t contain a single example of anything defamatory published by the Times. It’s just a hodgepodge of gripes about legitimate expressions of opinion that are based on his verifiable conduct. And there is nothing he hates more than accurate reporting about what he does and says.

SEE THIS: Crybaby Trump Whines About Getting Bad Press and Demands that the Offending Media Be Terminated

In the tediously long posting to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump wrote in part that…

“Today, I have the Great Honor of bringing a $15 Billion Dollar Defamation and Libel Lawsuit against The New York Times, one of the worst and most degenerate newspapers in the History of our Country, becoming a virtual ‘mouthpiece’ for the Radical Left Democrat Party.”

Trump’s bizarre “Great Honor” to sue the Times is notable for committing the same sort of defamation that he is accusing the Times of. If required to prove his allegation that the Times is “degenerate” or “a virtual ‘mouthpiece'” for Democrats, he would come up pitifully short. And even if it were true, it’s perfectly legal under the Constitution’s First Amendment. But Trump was just getting started. He also wrote that…

“Their Endorsement of Kamala Harris was actually put dead center on the front page of The New York Times, something heretofore UNHEARD OF!”

Once again, if true it would be the prerogative of the Times to endorse anyone they want, in any manner they choose. But for the record, Trump is lying. The Times endorsement of Harris was only in the Opinion section, not the front page. And there was nothing “UNHEARD OF” about it. And then he continued…

“…our successful litigation against George Slopadopoulos/ABC/Disney, and 60 Minutes/CBS/Paramount”

Setting aside Trump’s infantile nickname for George Stephanopoulos, he is lying yet again. He did not have a “successful litigation” against Disney or Paramount. Neither case ever went to trial. They both settled due to their cowardly fear of Trump interfering with their businesses, which he threatened to do. And they both had pending transactions that relied on approvals from the federal government. So they settled in order to appease Trump. Even so, the amounts were mere fractions of what Trump sued them for. And finally, Trump revealed that…

“The suit is being brought in the Great State of Florida.”

This is an obvious effort to judge-shop in the more friendly Florida pool of conservative judges, rather than the actual location of the suit’s target in New York.

Since Trump’s lawsuit fails to identify any false or defamatory statements by the Times, what is Trump really whining about? Well, last week he threatened bring a suit over a Times story about the now infamous “birthday card” to Jeffrey Epstein that included a note from Trump. He is already suing the Wall Street Journal for $10 billion for the same thing. Trump has denied that the card existed, even after it was released by the Epstein estate. So this is more performative bullpucky, and intimidation. For it’s part, the Times responded saying that…

The New York Times responded to Trump’s lawsuit saying that “This lawsuit has no merit. It lacks any legitimate legal claims and instead is an attempt to stifle and discourage independent reporting. The New York Times will not be deterred by intimidation tactics. We will continue to pursue the facts without fear or favor and stand up for journalists’ First Amendment right to ask questions on behalf of the American people.”

We’ll see. Many others have capitulated. Although the record shows that, more often than not, when a party to a Trump lawsuit chose to fight back, they won. Because in the end, Trump is just a phony who puts on a facade of toughness that he has never lived up to. In fact, he has provided a better description of himself when he bragged that he is “the most fabulous whiner.” No, really…

UPDATE: Trump’s lawsuit against the New York Times was thrown out of court only two days after it was filed. The ruled that “it “unmistakably and inexcusably”that the courts are violated the rules that govern civil lawsuits, and “not a protected platform to rage against an adversary.”

Trump, in an Ignorant Rage, Threatens New York For Freely Choosing Mamdani Over His MAGA-STY

Poor Donald Trump. While still grieving over the loss of his friend, ultra-conservative organizer Charlie Kirk, he is soldiering on with his life and his work. Keeping his tee time at his golf club, attending Yankees games, and ordering military occupations of American cities that don’t want or need his “help.”

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

Donald Trump

From the outset of the shooting, Trump has been baselessly blaming Kirk’s death on “radical left lunatics” who he says “want to destroy America.” Rather than seeking to unite the nation, he is purposefully pouring gasoline on an already volatile conflagration of hatred that he and his MAGA-ites have been fueling for years.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Justice Dept Disappears Study that Proves Most Violence is Caused By Far Right Radicals

The dangerous defamation that Trump is disseminating continued on Monday with his posting of a missive on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He complained about New York’s Governor Kathy Hochul endorsing Rep. Zohran Mamdani for mayor of New York City. Trump lashed out babbling that…

“Governor Kathy Hochul of New York has Endorsed the ‘Liddle’ Communist,’ Zohran Mamdani, running for Mayor of New York. This is a rather shocking development, and a very bad one for New York City. How can such a thing happen? Washington will be watching this situation very closely. No reason to be sending good money after bad! President DJT”

Why Trump thinks that it’s “shocking” for a democratic governor to endorse a fellow democrat can only be explained by his rapidly deteriorating mental acuity. However, it is not the least bit shocking that Trump has once again lied about Mamdani’s political affiliation. He is not now, nor has he ever been, a communist. Although, in Trump’s defense, due to his inbred ignorance, he surely has no idea how to define the term.

What’s worse is Trump’s threat to withhold federal funds from New York if the voters there choose Mamdani to lead their city. It’s called democracy. And Trump has repeatedly made it clear that he is utterly opposed it. A recent District Court ruling blocked Trump’s attempts to withhold federal funds as an unconstitutional abuse of power. Not that he cares about the courts – or the Constitution.

Trump’s threat promises to punish everyone in New York simply because they have the audacity to vote independently for the candidate of their choice. In Trump’s mind that is sacrilege. He cannot grasp how they could refuse to obey his MAGA-sty. It is yet another demonstration of his open aspirations to reign as a king, beholden to no one and to no law. Which makes the statement that Hochul made in her endorsement all the more relevant. In her support for Mamdani she said that…

“In light of the abhorrent and destructive policies coming out of Washington every day, I needed to know the next mayor will not be someone who would surrender one inch to President Trump,”

That’s a message that every elected official in America – and every American – must take to heart if the democracy that this nation has practiced for 250 years is to endure. And every day it becomes clearer that in order to preserve our freedom, Trump must go. 8647!

The Charlie Kirk Canonizers Cherish Free Speech So Much They Will Prohibit Anyone From Using It

In the wake of the horrific shooting of ultra-conservative activist and organizer, Charlie Kirk, perhaps the most notable response from right-wing adherents to the MAGA cult of Donald Trump has been their fierce aversion to free speech and political independence.

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

Donald Trump, Censorship

It isn’t enough for the Kirkians to solemnly honor the memory of the provocateur that they followed. They have a gnawing compulsion to elevate him to sainthood and decree any dissent to be unholy sacrilege. Not surprisingly, Trump himself is leading the charge of this emerging army of true believers. And praise for Kirk has devolved into a seething animosity toward his critics.

SEE THIS: Trump Delivers a Despicable Diatribe Demonizing Democrats Following the Shooting of Charlie Kirk

Disrespect for the departed is not something that civil people should engage in. But Trump has pledged to abuse the power of his office to retaliate against the infidels who seek to blaspheme their newly minted martyr. In his recent White House sermon he made it clear that dissent is verboten, saying that…

“My administration will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity and to other political violence, including the organizations that fund it and support it.”

This is the same language used by the rest of the Kirkian flock who are so adamantly exalting him as a bastion of free and open dialogue. They apparently revere free speech so much that they believe it must be preserved in glass to keep it from being used by the unclean masses who would tarnish it. That sentiment is now being dispensed broadly throughout the MAGA-Sphere. For instance…

Sen. Katie Britt: “The rhetoric that led us to this moment, calling President Trump a fascist, calling him Hitler, you have news organizations and mainstream media celebrating that. Allowing those things to take place and be said on their networks. That is dangerous. […] Britt: If you are out there and you are celebrating the political assassination of a man who was exercising his free speech … you should be held accountable. You should be fired.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth: “Hegseth has told his staff to identify any members of the military who have mocked or condoned the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk so that they can be punished.”

GOP Rep. Clay Higgins: “I’m going to use Congressional authority and every influence with big tech platforms to mandate immediate ban for life of every post or commenter that belittled the assassination of Charlie Kirk. […] I’m also going after their business licenses and permitting, their businesses will be blacklisted aggressively, they should be kicked from every school, and their drivers licenses should be revoked. I’m basically going to cancel with extreme prejudice these evil, sick animals.”

That’s just a sampling of what is circling the drain in MAGAVille. And it is already having a real world impact. NPR found that “Over thirty people across the country have been fired, put on leave, investigated or faced calls to resign because of social media posts criticizing Charlie Kirk.”

The Kirk defenders might wonder why anyone would say anything untoward about their fallen hero. Well, the folks at Zeteo helpfully published an article of Charlie Kirk in His Own Words.” It contains “17 quotes you should read from the right-wing activist and Trump ally who was tragically shot and killed.”

It is impossible to ignore the hypocrisy of those condemning liberals and other left of center citizens for using harsh language. They are hardly innocent in that regard themselves. And that goes double for the Trump regime that regularly maligns Democrats as a “domestic extremist organization,” calling them “radical left lunatics, Marxists, communists,” and “enemies of the people,” who “hate God,” and “want to destroy America.”

However, it also impossible to dismiss the fact that most political violence is committed by far right extremists. That was confirmed in a study by the National Institute of Justice, an agency within the Department of Justice. Interestingly, the DoJ removed that study from its website this week, just as interest in the subject has been growing.

Despite the right’s bellowing for retribution and the banishment from society of lefties who are mean to righties, they have a completely different standard for their own vicious vilifiers. This week the Fox News co-host of Fox and Friends, Brian Kilmeade, proposed “lethal injection” to kill all of the homeless in America. He offered a weak apology a few days later, but there has been no call from the right for Fox to fire or otherwise punish him.

Brian Kilmeade of Fox News made a pathetically weak apology for his "callous remark" calling to murder the homeless.And that's it? The right has been feverishly demanding that anyone who said anything mean about Republicans be fired or worse. But Kilmeade gets a pass after proposing mass murder?

This tells you all you need to know about the right’s feigned concern about harsh rhetoric. In the words of their Dear Leader Trump, they “couldn’t care less.” They are merely exploiting a tragedy to advance their craven political agenda. Which for them is just business as usual.

TACO TRUMP Pens Absurd Letter to NATO with Pro-Putin Conditions to End Russia’s War on Ukraine

In the past nine months Donald Trump has issued several less than compelling ultimatums to Vladimir Putin regarding his ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine. Even before he reoccupied the White House Trump promised that he would end the war in 24 hours with a single phone call to his dear friend Vlad.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

Since taking office Trump reiterated his intentions to bring the conflict to a close. Last month Trump met with Putin in Alaska to negotiate a ceasefire. While steadfastly refusing to ever say anything critical of Putin, Trump insisted that Putin would have to agree to a ceasefire within 50 days – later reduced to 10 days – or there would be “severe consequences.” But as usual, Trump Always Chickens Out…

SEE THIS: TACO Trump Gives Putin Another 2 Weeks – No, Really, 2 Weeks – and He Really Means It This Time

Unsurprisingly, Trump’s deadlines have all passed. And on Saturday Trump posted another decree on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, expressing his thoughts on how to bring peace to the region in a letter he claimed to have sent to America’s NATO allies. Unfortunately, it was just more Trump malarkey that will create more confusion than completion. He babbled in part that…

““I am ready to do major Sanctions on Russia when all NATO Nations have agreed, and started, to do the same thing, and when all NATO Nations STOP BUYING OIL FROM RUSSIA. […] I believe that this, plus NATO, as a group, placing 50% to 100% TARIFFS ON CHINA, to be fully withdrawn after the WAR with Russia and Ukraine is ended, will also be of great help in ENDING this deadly, but RIDICULOUS, WAR.”

So Trump is “ready to do major Sanctions on Russia,” but only if all of NATO joins him. That’s a pathetically weak statement. Firstly because it exposes him as being afraid to show any smidgen of leadership. And secondly because it shields him from doing anything at all. If every one of the NATO members doesn’t go along, Trump will blame the whole alliance for his own failure to act on his own promises. And Turkey, Hungary, and Slovakia are on relatively friendly terms with Russia and remain trading partners, particularly with regard to oil, so they can’t be relied on to agree to Trump’s demands.

Trump’s additional terms regarding China further complicate his initiative. He wants all of NATO to impose the same inflationary tariffs on merchandise from China that he has imposed on American companies and consumers. And he is asking this of NATO while he is imposing tariffs on them. That would result in NATO suffering the economic hardship of tariffs from both China and the U.S.

This plan could not have been better devised to fail if it were intentional. Which, undoubtedly, it was. Because Trump couldn’t care less about ending the war. Especially if it damages his relationship with Putin. Conversely, Trump has repeatedly demeaned and insulted Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. And he does so again in this letter saying that…

“This is not TRUMP’S WAR (it would never have started if I was President!), it is Biden’s and Zelenskyy’s WAR.”

See? According to Trump it isn’t Putin’s war at all. Never mind that Putin is the one who invaded Ukraine. And Putin is the one committing war crimes. And the war could end tomorrow if Putin would just have his troops go home. Trump’s blaming Biden and Zelenskyy was so offensive that it drew criticism from Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska, a conservative Republican who sits on the House Committee on Armed Services. Bacon slammed Trump saying that…

“‘It is Biden’s and Zelenskyy’s war’ is so morally blind and factually wrong. Mr President, Putin is the one who is the invader. And, now this war is on your watch and you’ll be judged in the history books in the decades to come by your actions or lack thereof.”

Somehow, through all of this, Trump and his sycophants in Congress and the press think that he should get a Nobel peace prize. For what? Stalling any hopes of peace until Ukraine is defeated and Russia has achieved its imperialistic goals? If there is one thing we can learn from this, it’s that Putin could not have a better friend than Donald Trump. And America could not have a worse president.

Trump’s Justice Dept Disappears Study that Proves Most Violence is Caused By Far Right Radicals

While the nation continues to process the shock and grief caused by the murder of far right activist Charlie Kirk, vile and thoughtless MAGA partisans are feverishly endeavoring to politicize the crime, blaming Democrats and liberals for allegedly violent rhetoric that they say motivated the shooter. Never mind that no motive has as yet been determined.

Donald Trump Rally, Sieg Heil

Among the most rabid disseminators of the wholly speculative theories about what drove this assassin is the current occupant of the White House, Donald Trump. In the few hours after the shooting, when little was known, Trump posted a video of himself asserting as fact that the killing was the work of “the radical left” and their rhetoric that he says demonized conservatives. Although it is Trump who is the among the worst purveyors of demonizing rhetoric. For instance…

SEE THIS: Trump Delivers a Despicable Diatribe Demonizing Democrats Following the Shooting of Charlie Kirk

For some reason, Trump totally neglected to mention all of the far more numerous examples of political violence committed by the far right. That truth was revealed in a study conducted by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), the research, development, and evaluation agency of the United States Department of Justice. Their study found that…

“Militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism. Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists.”

Until today, that study was available (here) for all to read on the NIJ website. But now, just as people might want to confirm the state of violent extremist rhetoric in America, the study has been removed. Fortunately, it has been preserved by the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. The missing NIJ page has been replaced by a message saying…

Notice: “The Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Programs is currently reviewing its websites and materials in accordance with recent Executive Orders and related guidance. During this review, some pages and publications will be unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”

[UPDATE: This notice has also been removed now}

How convenient! At a time when there will be a great deal of interest in the facts surrounding violent political rhetoric, a study concluded last year has been disappeared. Which only makes it easier for liars like Trump to go on Fox News and gaslight America with grotesque distortions of reality that are aimed at bolstering his dishonest and dangerous narratives maligning Democrats.

Which is just what Trump did Friday morning. Joining his morning Ministers of Propaganda on Fox and Friends, Trump engaged in the following exchange with co-host Ainsley Earhardt (Sean Hannity’s fiancé)…

Earhardt: We have radicals on the right as well. We have radicals on the left. People are watching all of these videos and cheering, some people are cheering that Charlie was killed. How do we fix this country? How do we come back together?
Trump: I’ll tell you something that’s gonna get me in trouble but I couldn’t care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don’t want to see crime. They don’t want to see crime. Worried about the border. They’re saying, ‘We don’t want these people coming in. We don’t want you burning our shopping centers. We don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street.’

The radicals on the left are the problem. And they are vicious. And they are horrible. And they are politically savvy. Although they want men in women’s sports. They want transgender for everyone. They want open borders.

EARHARDT: We have radicals on the right as well. How do we fix this country?TRUMP: I'll tell you something that's gonna get me in trouble but I couldn't care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. The radicals on the left are the problem.

Note that this was Trump’s response to Earhardt asking “How do we come back together?” So apparently he thinks that calling people “vicious” and “horrible,” and lying about their opinions is the path to unity and togetherness.

Even worse is Trump’s embrace of far right radicals whose acts of violence he sees as beneficial deterrents to crime. There are scores of examples of this, but here are just a few:

  • The man who killed 23 Walmart shoppers in El Paso was just trying to reduce illegal immigration.
  • The nine murders of Black parishioners in the Charleston, South Carolina, church were only intended to promote faithful living.
  • The attacks on Democratic politicians (Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan, Nancy and Paul Pelosi, Minnesota state representatives Melissa Hortman, John Hoffman, and their spouses), were all efforts to achieve ideological balance.
  • The hundreds of insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol (and who Trump pardoned), killing five police officers, were just trying to prevent Joe Biden from destroying the country. After all, in Trump’s mind Democrats are worse than Al Qaeda.

NO, REALLY! Trump’s Propaganda Minister Maligns the Democratic Party as a ‘Domestic Extremist Organization’

See? Trump radicals, good. Democrat radicals, bad. This is the sort of language that gives Trump’s MAGA minions permission to commit crimes against liberals. And it is intentional on Trump’s part. It’s one of the rare occasions when he knows exactly what he’s doing. And he gets no pushback whatsoever from his fellow Republicans or his pals on Fox News. They are all of one mind. And what if it incites further violence? Well, Trump already told you, when he said that “I couldn’t care less.”

UPDATE: Don Jr joins in to claim that political violence is only “one way” from the Democratic Party. And he advocates censorship telling Fox News that “anyone who is saying otherwise should be thrown off the air.”
