Trump’s Truth Social is Littered with Loathsome Lies – Now Including a Fake JFK Jr

Posted by on February 10, 2026 at 3:18 pm. 0 Comments :

The dedicated propaganda platform that Donald Trump built, hilariously named “Truth” Social, was designed from the start to disseminate his putrid perspective of life in his warped vision of America. The website has always been gushing with flagrant falsehoods aimed at cultivating the devotion of his misguided cult disciples.

Donald Trump, Toilet, Bathrobe

The determination of Trump to construct a fantasy world wherein he is the singularly successful and infallible messiah for a cadre of pseudo-patriots is the paramount goal of the MAGA movement. They are clan of misfits who are obsessed with finding innocent people to blame for all of their hardships. And Trump provides them the emotional ammunition to wage that war. All the while propping himself up on pedestal made of pure delusion.

Among the recent examples of the Trump Derangement Syndrome that he suffers from is the following ridiculous post that Trump made to Truth Social on Tuesday morning. It’s a sorry statement of just how distant he is from anything resembling mental stability. The post is allegedly a re-posting of a tweet by John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. It said in part that “[Trump] has been talking about how to make America great for decades.” And that he is “A true man of principle.”

Of course, JFK Jr. died in a plane crash twenty-five years ago. There is nothing in the tweet that identifies it as a fake. In fact, the profile for the account says that it is “John F. Kennedy Jr. Son of a President. Lawyer. Publisher of George. Voice for truth, unity, and justice. Living bridge between the Kennedy legacy.” However, it also says that it was created in November of 2025. Apparently it wasn’t enough for Trump to tarnish the memory of the Kennedys by renaming the Kennedy Center for himself. He also needs to steal the identity of family.

Obviously the ghost of JFK Jr. did not return to launch a Twitter/X account a couple of months ago. Nor would he have done so with a flurry of ludicrous tweets exalting Trump and a variety of crazy QAnon conspiracy theories. Although a few years ago JFK Jr. was the subject of some nonsense QAnon theories that he was still alive and would be joining a Trump ticket for the White House.

That’s the level of madness that Trump is exhibiting now. And it is on top of his other displays of madness. Such as wanting to take over Greenland, imposing inflationary tariffs around the world, anointing himself the acting president of Venezuela, and deploying ICE StormTrumpers into American cities.

There is a lot more of that flaming bullshittery on Truth Social every day. No wonder the company that operates it, Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT), is a financial basket case that has lost 64% of its value in the past year. And that’s just for starters. What follows are some of the problems that have plagued Trump’s media business…

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump
Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then.

Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him
Truth Social’s Artificial Intelligence app is going woke. It is actually telling the truth about Trump and contradicting his flagrant lies on numerous subjects.

The Trump Media and Technology Group (Truth Social) Scam Reflects His Fondness for Fraud
During an interview on CNBC, Trump complained that he has been treated “very badly” by banks that he alleged were discriminating against him. Of course that might be because of the 34 felony convictions he has for defrauding banks. Not to mention a civil lawsuit finding of liability that cost him about half a billion dollars.

Trump’s Truth Social is Creating ‘Non-Woke’ Investment Portfolios for MAGA Cult Investors/Dupes
The focus of the Trump investment portfolios rests on buzzwords plucked from his political rhetoric. And what could possibly have more income potential than “non-woke” enterprises that pursue the anti-democratic goals of the MAGA movement?

Truth Social, Trump’s Pathetic Personal Propaganda Platform, Continues to Bleed Cash
In what may be the least surprising news of the year so far, Donald Trump’s flagship social media enterprise, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) – the parent holding company of his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social – released its annual report on Friday that revealed just how big a failure it is.

Trump’s Truth Social is Shedding Users Like a Miserable Childless Woman’s Mangy Cat
The Donald Trump-controlled Truth Social platform recorded its third straight month of declining traffic. Truth Social attracted 2,112,000 unique visitors, down 38% compared to June 2023 when the site generated 3,407,000 unique visitors. It was the platform’s second worst traffic performance since June 2022 when Truth Social had only 1,891,000 unique visitors.

Trump Crime Syndicate: Investors Arrested for Insider Trading in Failing Truth Social Scam
Trump’s associates in his truthless, anti-social media venture were arrested and charged with insider trading. Reports indicate that “the three individuals together made more than $22 million in illegal profits.”

Truth Social Disease: Ads on Trump’s Twitter Ripoff are Mostly Scams and Trump-Fluffing Merch
Advertisers are afraid of their ads being juxtaposed with hate speech and other noxious content. Consequently, the only advertisers who are willing to shell out are sketchy scammers, conspiracy theorists, and junk peddlers.

Reality TV President Trump Brags He is the Most Transparent Prez Ever. Real Reality Disagrees

Posted by on February 9, 2026 at 2:04 pm. 0 Comments :

Now that Donald Trump has completed the first year of his second occupation of the White House, it might be a good time to remind everyone where he came from and what qualified him to be America’s commander-in-chief. It wasn’t a career as a successful businessman or a real estate mogul. Because he failed bigly at both of those pursuits.

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

Donald Trump TV Set

The primary of occupation of Trump prior to running for president was as the host of a reality TV game show. He did that for 14 seasons. That’s not a side gig or a hobby. An actual billionaire wouldn’t have time for such nonsense. It was how Trump earned a living. If he were any good at business he would have spent more time engaging in it. His only apparent skill appears to be fleecing the willing dupes among his MAGA cult.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

With another year under his XXL belt, Trump is now bragging the he is the most transparent president ever. He believes that he accomplished that by running up a score of “press interactions” that exceeds those of his predecessors. Never mind that just bickering with reporters is not the same as being transparent. In Trump’s mind he is an open book. As evidence his Rapid Response Twitter/X account posted a link to an article in Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post saying that…

“Trump has more than doubled his press engagement numbers from the same point in his first term and blown past all recent predecessors, according to new data shared with The Post. Trump had at least 493 exchanges with journalists — including interviews and event Q&As — during the first year of his second term.”

The article broke down those “press engagements,” revealing that most of them (327) were “short question-and-answer sessions.” Only 13 of them were formal press conferences. Which was ten fewer than in his first term. By far, most of his press avails were incidental encounters that occurred while walking to or from a plane or helicopter, in a doorway on Air force One, tacked onto a meeting with a foreign dignitary, or during staged sessions of slobbering exaltations by his sycophantic Cabinet.

So Trump has performed consistent with his reputation as a reality TV clown, and an attention-starved narcissist craving constant coddling. What he regards as transparency is merely presence. Because that’s the way it’s done on Reality TV. Just stay on screen as much as possible spewing your message. Although most of Trump’s comments during these interactions were outright lies, blatant dodges and deflections, or vicious insults directed at the reporters – mostly at women.

The Post quoted White House spokeswoman Liz Huston gushing that “Trump is the most transparent and accessible president in American history.” But President Biden aide Meghan Hayes countered appropriately that “The American people deserve a president to give honest answers and not insults. It doesn’t matter how many times you interact with press if it is all lies and hateful rhetoric.”

Trump set a high bar for flinging flagrant falsehoods around in his first term when he was documented to have told more than 30,000 lies. But he is valiantly striving to meet or exceed that achievement. And so far he is on track to set new records. According to the New York Times…

“In the first year of his second term, President Donald Trump has cited an arsenal of falsehoods, baseless claims and distortions to try to justify significant policy changes on the economy, immigration and deployments of the military.”

The notion that having lots of press avails is what makes a president transparent requires the logical aptitude and attention span of a crack-addled chicken. Transparency requires honesty and openness. Neither of which Trump has ever exhibited. He has refused to disclose his taxes, or his academic records, or his health reports, or his business affairs.

More recently, Trump has staunchly opposed any releases of the files of his longtime friend, and notorious sex trafficking pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. That doesn’t exactly scream transparency. To the contrary, Trump is is clearly trying with all of his might to cover up the dark truths that populate his unsavory life story. But the secrecy that he insists upon only makes him look all the more guilty. An innocent man would have been much more forthcoming, much sooner.

The Clintons Agree to Give Testimony About Epstein – Dementia J. Trump Thinks He Already Did

Posted by on February 8, 2026 at 1:51 pm. 0 Comments :

When Donald Trump was running for reelection, a prominent part of his campaign was a promise of full transparency with regard to the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal of pedophiles. Trump and his supporters – some of whom later became members of his administration – swore that they would release the Epstein files and bring the ring of pervs to justice.

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

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

Not only did Trump break that promise, he did everything in his power to avoid releasing the files. He lied flagrantly that there was nothing in them that would incriminate him. And he relentlessly sought to smear others without offering any shred of evidence.

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

Among the most desperate ploys of Trump and his flunkies was their efforts to malign Hillary and Bill Clinton. It’s a common tactic on the right to project onto others the crimes that they know they are guilty of. But in Trump’s case, he is so inept that his attempts at character assassination fell flat, serving only to make him look even more scared, dishonest, and guilty.

This week the Clintons agreed to testify before Congress on the Epstein matter. They agreed even though the committee is chaired by the biggest Clinton hater on Capitol Hill, James Comer. Nevertheless, in a demonstration of confidence and courage, the Clintons accepted the invitation to testify. What’s more, they sought to make the hearings public, which Comer has so far refused to do. As reported by The Guardian…

“Former US president Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary are calling for their congressional testimony on ties to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to be held publicly, to prevent Republicans from politicising the issue. […]

“Democrats say the probe is being weaponised to attack political opponents of president Donald Trump – himself a longtime Epstein associate who has not been called to testify – rather than to conduct legitimate oversight.”

By contrast, Trump continues to dodge any accountability for his longtime relationship with Epstein. Trump’s 38,000 mentions in the files that have been released to date (only about half of them) has not resulted in his relenting on his staunch opposition to the transparency that he once promised. Never mind that he keeps saying that he is totally innocent and the files would prove that. If that were true he would have released those files months ago.

Instead, Trump is making astonishingly bizarre comments when asked about Epstein and himself. For example, NBC News anchor Tom Llamas interviewed Trump prior to Super Bowl which produced the following exchange…

Llamas: NBC broke the story that the Democrats are already saying that if you bring President Bill Clinton, and he has to to testify [on Epstein], we’ll bring in president Trump. What do say to that?
Trump: I think they might say that, you know. But they’ve already brought me. See I’ve been brought. They had me indicted many many times. Many many times.

That reply is a unique combination of Trump’s dishonesty and mental impairment. He certainly was never “brought” before Congress. If he thinks that he was, he’s remembering something that came straight out of his warped imagination and has no resemblance to reality.

Furthermore, Trump’s reference to having been indicted is equally ridiculous. None of his indictments led to any testimony. And he has never been asked to respond to anything related to Epstein under oath. He didn’t testify at all in the “hush money” case where he was convicted of 34 felonies. And the other crimes for which he was indicted were never brought to trial after the Supreme Court granted him immunity for virtually any crime that he had committed, or would commit in the future.

So to summarize, Americans can make up their own minds about the Epstein investigations and Trump’s involvement. Here is what all three of these people have said about it in the past few days…

  • Bill Clinton: Let’s stop the games + do this the right way: in a public hearing.
  • Hillary Clinton: If you want this fight…let’s have it in public.
  • Donald Trump: I think it’s really time for the country to maybe get onto something else, now that nothing came out about me.

Who do you believe?

WHUT? Trump’s State Department is Deleting All of Its Twitter/X Posts Prior to His Reelection

Posted by on February 7, 2026 at 1:35 pm. 0 Comments :

One of the propaganda tactics that Donald Trump is best known for is his projection of objectionable conduct that he engages in onto his political enemies. It’s a tactic that he usually executes so poorly that his effectiveness is destroyed by his obvious hypocrisy. Like when he accuses others of being pedophiles, while photos of him and young girls are abundant in the Epstein files.

Statue of Liberty, Blind, Muzzled

Trump also employs this strategy to pretend that he advocates government transparency. He brags about how often he takes questions from the media, but fails to acknowledge that his answers are mostly lies, or don’t even bother to respond to the question, instead diverting into personal insults directed at the (usually female) reporter. Sadly, on some small sector of the electorate, this strategy works.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

The latest evidence of Trump’s aversion to actual transparency was revealed in a story published by NPR about a new directive from Trump’s State Department. The story exposes how the agency run by Trump flunky Marco Rubio is planning to make it more difficult, if not impossible, to find the public comments by the agency and its principles. NPR reports that…

“The State Department is removing all posts on its public accounts on the social media platform X made before President Trump returned to office on Jan. 20, 2025.

“The posts will be internally archived but will no longer be on public view, the State Department confirmed to NPR. Staff members were told that anyone wanting to see older posts will have to file a Freedom of Information Act request, according to a State Department employee who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation by the Trump administration. That would differ from how the U.S. government typically handles archiving the public online footprint of previous administrations.”

“The move comes as the Trump administration has removed wide swaths of information from government websites that conflict with the president’s views, including environmental and health data and references to women, people of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community.”

There are some obvious questions raised by this initiative. Such as why would the State Department want to get rid of comments that have been publicly available for months or years? Why put people through the ordeal of filing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to get something that was easily accessible prior to this policy? Why was the source of this news so afraid of retaliation that he/she insisted on being anonymous? Also…

Is the State Department worried that there will be more incidents like the one this week, wherein Trump posted a grossly racist video depicting Michelle and President Obama as apes? Are they afraid that there will be more exposures of Trump and his cronies advocating a fascist agenda to undermine democracy? Is the Trump regime so scared of hypocrisies, contradictions, and outright lies being found that they need to expunge the entire public record?

Yes, yes, and yes. This self-censorship is consistent with the tyrannical machinations of an authoritarian administration that has already banned news organizations and journalists from covering them if their coverage wasn’t unflinchingly worshipful. They have also disappeared government records that might reflect negatively on them.

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

Trump’s attempts to delete all of the State Department posts on Twitter/X is not only censorship. It might also be illegal. The administration is bound by law to preserve all official government records and communications. And comments on social media by official government accounts are subject to that law. The problem here is that Trump doesn’t think that he is subject to any law, including the Constitution. Hopefully he will be set straight by Congress and/or the courts.

Herr Trump Warns News Networks Not to Book His Former Staffers Who Criticize Him – Or What?

Posted by on February 6, 2026 at 2:13 pm. 0 Comments :

The media that Donald Trump maligns in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people” continues to rankle the Snowflake-in-Chief. He can’t seem to go for a single day – or a single hour – without lashing out like an insolent infant at the free press for having the unmitigated audacity to exercise their constitutionally protected First Amendment rights.

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

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

It’s gotten so bad in what remains of Trump’s mind that he is no longer confining his petulant outbursts to Democrats, wayward Republicans, or other perceived political foes. The range of Trump’s wrath has expanded to include anyone who utters even mild misgivings about his massive misconduct.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

On Thursday night, and into the wee hours of Friday morning, Trump posted dozens of utterly insane comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. They included some more of his pitiful and repeatedly debunked whining that he won the 2020 election that he lost to Joe Biden. And there were the usual exaltations of himself as America’s messiah. And there was a particularly vile post that featured a video in which Michelle and President Obama were depicted as apes.

Along with all of that evidence of Trump’s impaired mental acuity, he also posted a comment that attacked a couple of his own former White House staffers. The comment exposed both his cognitive decline and his hate-triggered craving for vengeance. In a long and rambling disgorgement of disgust that isn’t worth transcribing, Trump raged that…

“Ty Cobb, one of the Worst Lawyers in Washington, D.C., a REAL LOSER, was fired years ago [and] major Loser, Miles Taylor, who I have no idea who he is, make livings talking about me like they know me well. […] These two Networks [CNN and MS NOW] are forewarned not to put them on the air again.”

REALLY? For the record, Ty Cobb served as the White House special counsel for Trump from July 2017 to May 2018, managing the Trump administration’s response to the Robert Mueller special counsel investigation of his collusion with Russia. Miles Taylor served as the Chief of Staff at the Department of Homeland Security from 2019 to 2020.

So both Cobb and Taylor were highly placed members in Trump’s administration. If now he has no idea who they are, that can only be interpreted as a memory lapse consistent with Alzheimer’s, or something like it. He can hardly be considered to be able to carry out the duties of his office if he can’t remember them.

Even worse, Trump went on to issue a threat to two cable TV news networks, CNN and MS NOW. What does he mean by his “forewarning” those networks not to permit two former Trump administration officials to appear on their air? Does Trump think that he has the authority to dictate who news networks are allowed to interview? Because if he does think that, it’s just more proof of his unfitness for office. And this isn’t the first time that he has gone done this path of pure censorship…

MORE HERE: HOLY CR*P! Trump Floats Executive Order to Dictate to TV Networks What They Are Allowed to Air

There have already been numerous examples of Trump’s twisted behavior that would more than justify removing him from office by either impeachment or invoking the 25th Amendment. They include his quest to take over Greenland, his anointing himself the acting president of Venezuela, his egomaniacal renaming of the Kennedy Center for himself, his imposition of inflationary tariffs on most of the world, and his presiding over a stormtrooper-like invasion of American cities that has resulted in untold suffering and death. And if that isn’t a profile of someone who is criminally insane, then what is?

Trump Hypes a New York Post Smear of a Democrat for Doing What Many More Republicans Are Doing

Posted by on February 5, 2026 at 2:44 pm. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump to manufacture a recovery of his rapidly declining approval is evident in his increasingly ludicrous public remarks and unhinged social media posts. His deranged behavior and brazen dishonesty have always been an integral part of his warped character. But as he sinks ever lower his outbursts are becoming ever more bizarre.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

Trump’s polling seems to hit a new low every day. According to the latest Quinnipiac poll, his current approval rating is a dismal 37%. That’s consistent with other polls, most of which show him struggling to reach 40%. Consequently, Trump and his regime mouthpieces are going to extreme lengths to spin reality into something that doesn’t hurt his tender fee fees.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

On Wednesday night, Trump himself sought to salve his wounded ego by posting a link on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to an article in Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post that smeared a Democratic congressman for trading stocks. The article is a month old, but that doesn’t matter when you’re trying to whip up some positive propaganda from thin air. The headline blared that “Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi beats Pelosi’s stock portfolio performance with 35% return.” It began…

“Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi led all Democrats with the best stock portfolio performance of 2025, beating even the She-Wolf of Wall Street, Nancy Pelosi, data obtained by The Post shows.” […] “Most of it came from his outsized position in tech giant NVIDIA — up 40% for the year.

The article noted that Suozzi “supports bipartisan legislation…to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks.” That’s legislation that many Republicans still are not getting behind. And Trump refuses to support it unless it exempts the executive branch – meaning him. All of the pending legislation is currently stalled in committee or awaiting floor votes that are not scheduled.

Near the bottom of the article, the Post finally noted that a Republican, Tim Moore, made even more money trading stocks (52%) than Suozzi, who ranks down at number five. What’s more, a chart included in the article shows that eight of the top ten congressional stock traders are Republicans. Which is not ever mentioned in the text of the article.

Nancy Pelosi’s 18% isn’t even among the top ten, despite having made it into the headline. Although notable Republicans like Ted Cruz (50%), and Lisa Murkowski (35%), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (33%), and Mitch McConnell (29%) are in the top ten. [Note: The Post doesn’t know what Murkowski looks like. They put a photo of Susan Collins on the Murkowski bar of the chart]

For some reason the Post decided to make this article all about the Democratic representative, and only added the Republicans as an afterthought. Even though the Republicans are far worse offenders as revealed on the Post’s own chart. And Trump latches onto it as a handy piece of anti-Democrat propaganda. Even if it’s a month later when he’s scrounging around for ways to smear his political foes and deflect from his own much more serious misconduct and outright crimes. Epstein files, anyone?

The Daily Show’s Jordan Klepper Meets Melania Moviegoers (It Totally Bombed. I Did the Math)

Posted by on February 4, 2026 at 2:35 pm. 1 Comments :

One of the most consistent features of Donald Trump’s severely impaired persona is his compulsion to exalt himself at every opportunity. He does so with no regard whatsoever for any factual basis. His representations of alleged success are wildly overblown and riddled with inflated – and often just made up – numbers. When asked for verification he responds with angry insults and wanders off.

Donald Trump Baby and Melania Trump

This past weekend Trump celebrated the premiere of the CROCKumentary about his former mistress, and current wife, Melania. He described it on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, as a “BLOCKBUSTER! [that is] on track for best opening weekend of any documentary in last 10 years” Which, typically for Trump, is a blatant lie.

SEE THIS: Melania Trump Crocumentary Crew Want Their Names Removed From Credits and Hope the Film Flops

The film has already broken records. However, not the ones that anyone would brag about. It has achieved an abysmal rating of 5% on Rotten Tomatoes. And on IMDB it is scored as the “The Lowest-Rated Movie Of All Time.” But not to worry. Trump watched it twice and loved it. And the same is true for some MAGA cult followers who attended the premiere at the Trump Kennedy Center. They were interviewed by Jordan Klepper of the Daily Show, who got some revealing commentaries…

Attendee: Everyone loves that narrative arc where someone comes froma a small European country and ends up becoming the First Lady of the United States of America.
Klepper: It’s truly an immigrant story.

Exactly! A true immigrant story of a high fashion model who comes to America on a fraudulent visa, poses nude for a lot of money, and marries a nepo-billionaire. It’s the classic American rags to riches tale. Klepper also addresses the recent report that the director, Brett Ratner, was found in the Epstein files, and that his career was upended due to allegations of sexual abuse by numerous women. Which makes him a perfect fit for a film by the Trump family. In a hilarious display of mockery, Klepper entraps some oblivious attendees by simply saying “Me too.”

For the record, the film is as big a financial fiasco as most of Trump’s other business ventures. Never mind the mindless cheering from Trump and his cult disciples. The math doesn’t lie. Jeff Bezos and his Amazon/MGM Studios paid Trump a $40 million bribe for the rights. Then he spent another $35 million on marketing. And its premiere only managed to bring in $7.8 million.

MAGA World, however, is crowing about that take because it beat extraordinarily low expectations. But that is not how success is measured. Here are the facts…

  • Melania opened on 1,500 screens. Each screening seats on average about 150 people. And there are five showings per day on each screen. So for the three day weekend that’s about 3.375 million available seats.
  • The reported $7.8 million at $13.00 each (average ticket price nationwide) is only 600,000 seats/tickets sold. Or about 27 tickets per showing (1,500 screens, five shows each, for three days).

Selling an average of 27 tickets per screening isn’t anyone’s idea of a blockbuster. In fact, it’s a full-blown bomb. It means that some screenings in Mississippi or Wyoming might have sold out. But others in New York or Illinois would be empty. And there have been numerous reports of empty theaters. A hit film selling out 1,500 theaters would have earned nearly $44 million dollars in the opening weekend. Melania did less than 18% of that. And with a short theatrical run it’s going to earn even less streaming.

Nevertheless, the people who did go, as represented in Klepper’s video, will go away satisfied. Because their standards are so low that just seeing Melania on the big screen will send them into fits of ecstasy. And it won’t matter to them this “documentary” was produced by her as a piece of pure propaganda and a vehicle to funnel money to the Trump family. Consequently, as a bribe it truly is successful.

UPDATE: The Melania CROCKumentary “added 300 theaters in its second weekend but dropped steeply with $2.4 million in ticket sales, down 67% from its much-discussed debut…[it is] likely heading toward flop territory.”

Karoline Leavitt Admits that Trump Was Fooled by Putin’s Promise to Suspend Bombing of Ukraine

Posted by on February 3, 2026 at 12:50 pm. 1 Comments :

Before Donald Trump was even inaugurated for his second occupation of the White House, he disseminated deliberate deceptions about how he would resolve Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine. During his campaign he promised that he would end the war with a single phone call to his pall Vladimir Putin on day one. That was 379 days ago.

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

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

Needless to say, the war is still raging on with Russia committing new war crimes virtually every day. Meanwhile, Trump and his Senior Apologists continue to deny that he has any responsibility for the ongoing massacres perpetrated by Putin, despite his absurd insistence that none of it would have happened were he in office when it started.

SEE THIS: Trump Destroys His Own Claim that Russia Wouldn’t Have Invaded Ukraine if He Were President

Trump’s absolution is being regurgitated again by his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt. She was asked about a recent claim by Trump that he spoke with Putin and asked him to suspend his bombing raids during the winter storms that have battered the region. Trump claimed that…

“I personally asked President Putin not to fire into Kyiv and the various towns for a week and he agreed to do that, and I have to tell you it was very nice.”

As usual, Trump’s account has a measure of believability that rests on how well known Putin is for being “very nice.” On Tuesday morning Leavitt was asked about this almost certainly imaginary conversation between Trump and Putin, and the fact that Putin continues his slaughter of innocent Ukrainians. She replied with an impressively straight face to the question…

Reporter: Trump said Putin agreed to halt attacking Ukraine because of the cold weather. But today we’ve seen Russia launching some of the heaviest attacks this month. What’s your reaction?
Leavitt: I spoke with the president about it this morning and his reaction was unfortunately unsurprised. These are two countries who have been engaged in a very brutal war for several years. A war that would have never started if the president were still in office. It started because of the weakness and incompetence of the previous President, Joe Biden.

Q: Trump said Putin agreed to halt attacking Ukraine bc of the cold, but today we're seen Russia launching heavy attacks. What's your reaction?LEAVITT: I spoke with the president and his reaction was unfortunately unsurprised. These are two countries that have been engaged in a very brutal war.

REALLY? Leavitt describes Trump as “unfortunately unsurprised.” In other words, Trump had accepted Putin’s promise to refrain from new attacks, and even complimented him for it. But afterward Leavitt says that he wasn’t surprised by Putin’s betrayal? Why would Trump brag about getting Putin’s agreement if he didn’t believe him in the first place?

Leavitt went on to parrot Trump’s frequent assertion that Putin would never have started the war if Trump were president at the time. But that is transparently preposterous. Trump’s claim that his presence alone would have prevented Russia from invading Ukraine implies that Putin would be either too afraid of Trump to take such aggressive action, or that Putin so admired Trump that his influence would be irresistible.

However, it’s clear now that neither of those scenarios have an iota of truth to them. If Putin won’t listen to Trump now when he’s asking him to halt bombing for the duration of the storm, it’s safe to assume that he wouldn’t have listened when he was first plotting to invade. What is unarguably obvious is that Trump has no leverage with Putin whatsoever.

Consequently, the efforts by Leavitt and Trump to blame Biden for Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is misdirected. In reality it is the weakness and incompetence of Trump that allows this war to persist. Even after Trump issued direct threats to Putin giving him two weeks to agree to a cease fire – five months ago.

Karl Rove Slams Trump on Fox News for Lying About the Economy and Ignoring How the Public Feel

Posted by on February 2, 2026 at 1:41 pm. 0 Comments :

The flagrant failures of Donald Trump are becoming so unwieldy and impossible to ignore that even the most hard core, right-wing Republicans are beginning to speak out about it. They are starting to recognize that dodging reality is going to have a more severe impact on the GOP’s electoral prospects than failing to suck up to Dear Leader Trump.

Donald Trump, Fox News, White House

What’s more, the once MAGA faithful who are tenderly distancing themselves from Trump’s self-serving fantasies are doing it openly on Trump’s official televised Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. This emerging state of affairs is being driven by Trump’s horrendous agenda that includes deploying ICE thugs to attack American citizens, invading foreign countries, demolishing historic buildings, and even proposing tyrannical schemes to undermine democracy.

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

On Monday morning the longtime conservative political strategist, Karl Rove, was interviewed on Fox News in a segment about the economy. Host Shannon Bream introduced him by reading an excerpt from an op-ed allegedly written by Trump that was published this weekend in Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal. The portion that Bream read was a defense of his tariffs that was riddled with more of the lies that Trump has repeatedly told on this subject. When asked for his response, Rove said that…

“That piece in the Wall Street Journal is ‘the economy is great.’ That’s not what people feel. Last year we lost 70,000 manufacturing jobs. We lost 145,000 blue collar jobs…Blue-collar consumer confidence is at a record low since 1976 when they began asking the question.

“The top 20% of the American population is responsible for 75% of the GDP. The bottom 80% is responsible for the remaining 25% of the GDP. The lower income households are bearing a bigger burden of inflation because the things that they have to pay for, like rent and utilities, have risen higher.”

‘Last Year We Lost 70,000 Manufacturing Jobs.’Legendary GOP operative Karl Rove scolded President Donald Trump for continuing to boast about his economic record during an appearance on Fox News.

Rove is right. He is cogently explaining why the economy can appear to look decent by some metrics, but actually only works for the wealthy, but is terrible for most Americans. Furthermore, he is warning Trump and the Republican Party that failing to pay attention to how people are actually experiencing these difficulties is political suicide.

Unfortunately for Rove, he is barking up the wrong tree. Trump doesn’t know or care how people feel. He is dead set on telling them what they “should” feel. And in Trump’s mind they should feel that he is their lord and savior who is infallible and cannot be challenged, lest they be punished. In MAGA World, if Trump tells you that the economy is the best it’s ever been, then you are expected to nod obediently and acquiesce to the dictates of the cult, wherein only the leader will ever tell you the truth.

Trump is focused squarely on gaslighting the nation into believing that they are all as wildly prosperous as he is. And the truth is an irrelevant distraction that is being pushed by radical leftists. Even Trump’s choice of the Wall Street Journal as the vehicle for his propaganda is bizarre. He recently blasted it as “FAKE” news and “third rate,” when they published a verified story about his unsavory relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

“The Wall Street Journal printed a FAKE letter, supposedly to Epstein. These are not my words, not the way I talk. Also, I don’t draw pictures. I told Rupert Murdoch it was a Scam, that he shouldn’t print this Fake Story. But he did, and now I’m going to sue his ass off, and that of his third rate newspaper.”

Someone better be keeping track of all the lawsuits that Trump is filing, or threatening to file. There must be dozens of them aimed at journalists, lawyers, universities, celebrities, and politicians. You have to wonder where he finds the time to screw up the country so badly, and to make so many private deals to enrich himself.

Apparently the part of Trump’s brain that handles grift and corruption isn’t affected by his obviously worsening dementia. Which is getting so bad that he is openly proposing to rig elections by illegally taking them over and nationalizing them, which is prohibited by the Constitution. Not that Trump cares about that old rag.

HOLY CRAP! Trump says out loud to his former FBI flunky, Dan Bongino, that Republicans "should take over the voting."He is literally admitting that he wants to steal the midterm elections because he knows he and the GOP are gonna lose. Nationalizing the election is illegal.

GOOD NEWS! Trump Whines that He’s Not Gonna ‘Help’ Democratic Cities Oppress Protesters Anymore

Posted by on February 1, 2026 at 2:14 pm. 0 Comments :

Last year an acronym began circulating that described the tendency of Donald Trump to reverse himself out of fear that his wildly asinine and ill-considered comments would get him into even more trouble. The phrase “Trump Always Chickens Out” (TACO) was embraced by liberals, sane moderates, and never-Trump Republicans, to shine a light on his wobbly positions that were often abandoned when they were ridiculed by broad swaths of the general public.

Donald Trump, Immigrant, Child

Now there may be a new acronym to define the Crybaby-in-Chief: “Trump’s Whining Is Tedious” (TWIT). It remains an enduring mystery how the MAGA cult can regard Trump as a person of character and strength when his most prominent traits are anger, cowardice, and self-pity.

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

On Saturday Trump lashed out at his innumerable perceived enemies in a lengthy tirade posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. The subject of his mental meltdown was the overwhelmingly negative response to the brutal and unlawful actions by his Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) thugs, taken against protesters in Minneapolis who are understandably outraged.

Trump is having a full blown meltdown. He can't stand it when true patriots who cherish democracy oppose him. And he considers his StormTrumpers to be "Warriors" against fellow Americans.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-01T11:47:52.810Z

What follows are some annotated excerpts from Trump’s rancid rant…

“I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help.”
Thank you! That is precisely what the citizens of Minneapolis – and many other cites and states – have been demanding. Why do you think they’ve been chanting “ICE OUT” wherever they encounter the masked oppressers?

“We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists.”
Oh? So you still intend to wreak havoc when you can on peaceful protesters that you malign as “paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists,” despite having no evidence of those accusations?

“There will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence.”
Now you’re calling your StormTrumpers “Warriors” against fellow Americans who are merely exercising their constitutional rights. And you’re threatening consequences that are “equal” to “rock or brick throwing”? That isn’t law enforcement. That’s domestic terrorism.

“Therefore, to all complaining Local Governments, Governors, and Mayors, let us know when you are ready, and we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, ‘PLEASE.'”
Seriously? Now you want the people’s representatives to kneel down to you and beg for help. Should they say “Pretty please”? How about GFY?

“We will not allow our Courthouses, Federal Buildings, or anything else under our protection, to be damaged in any way, shape, or form.”
That’s funny. Because you not allowed it on January 6, 2021, but you pardoned more than 1,500 rioters who committed those crimes, many of whom pleaded to guilty to felonies including sedition.

This would be a good time for Trump to keep his word about staying of cities and states that don’t want or need his inciteful intervention. Unfortunately, he is unlikely to to restrain himself. He just can’t resist any opportunity to act out his tyrannical authoritarian aspirations. And at the same time, he can’t help being a petulant whiner. It’s something about himself that he has literally bragged about…

“I am the most fabulous whiner. I do whine, because I want to win. I am a whiner and I keep whining and whining until I win.”
