Trump Mouthpiece Whines that the Epstein Story Gets More Press than Trump ‘Winning’ the Shutdown

Posted by on November 13, 2025 at 1:29 pm. 1 Comments :

This week has seen a couple of significant stories competing for the attention of the media. One of them is the end of the longest government shutdown in United States history, which broke the record set by Donald Trump in his first occupation of the White House. The other story is the Jeffrey Epstein emails that implicate Trump in his pedophilia activities.

Donald Trump

Both of those are important stories to keep the public informed about the state of the government and the affairs (no pun intended) of the president. However, one of them is weighed down by the dull details of economics, while the other is bursting with the excitement of scandal and melodrama. So take a guess. Which one is the media most anxious to cover? And subsequently, which one is the Trump regime most worried about?

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Flack, Karoline Leavitt, is Spinning Furiously to Cover Up His Epstein Ties

That’s right. Trump has been working feverishly to suppress any media mentions of the Epstein story. He is blasting the press for promoting what he calls a “hoax” (as usual). And he is pressuring his MAGA minions in Congress to deep six the issue. Meanwhile, he is hardly talking about the shutdown at all. As of this writing, he hasn’t posted a single comment on it in more than 24 hours on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social. But not to worry. His Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is on the job. She tweeted Tuesday morning that…

“If not for the Jeffrey Epstein story, CNN would be forced to talk about how Chuck Schumer and the Democrats got shellacked by President Trump and Republicans in the government shutdown fight. It’s clear this is another Democrat + Mainstream Media hoax.”

See? The Epstein story is just another hoax that is being spun by the fake news. And if Epstein’s emails, that tell of Trump having spent hours with an Epstein victim in Epstein’s home, weren’t revealed, we would all be “forced” to talk about Trump’s magnificence at “shellacking” the Democrats.

The problem with Leavitt’s argument, besides her callous dismissal of the gross and potentially illegal behavior of Trump, is that there was no “shellacking” of Democrats to brag about. To the contrary, Democrats crushed Trump and his MAGA Republicans by raising the issue of healthcare to the top of the news cycle.

Democrats also succeeded in attributing the blame for the shutdown – and all of the harm it has caused for the American people – to Trump and the GOP in Congress. They also insured that a vote will be held to hold the GOP accountable for the skyrocketing healthcare insurance premiums. They also secured funding for SNAP for a full year.

To be sure, there are problems with the agreement to open the government, but they pale in comparisons to the gains, and they will be brought up again in two months when this Continuing Resolution expires.

The bottom line is that compassionate Democrats compromised in order to get SNAP funding for children, seniors, and others flowing. While simultaneously putting the cruelty of Trump and the Republicans on display. And the evidence of that was shown in the latest polls that have Trump underwater on every major issue, particularly the economy and the Epstein files…

TRUMP IS TOAST!CNN's Harry Enten: "Trump is 39 points below water on the Epstein case. […] Less than half of Republicans are buying it."Also, Trump is losing BIGLY on every one of these other issues. How can his MAGA Republicans continue to back him?

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-13T18:00:13.739Z

If these numbers hold – or more likely worsen – for the MAGA movement, there will be a massive blue tsunami next November. And while Democrats get most of the credit for that, Republicans can take some pride in knowing that they were at least partially responsible for sinking their own ship.

OH NO! MAGA Mouthpiece Mike Johnson Declares that it’s ‘The End of the Democratic Party’

Posted by on October 27, 2025 at 2:54 pm. 0 Comments :

The Donald Trump Shutdown of the United States government is approaching a new milestone as it nears a month of failing to accomplish a core responsibility of governing. It is nearing the record for a shutdown (35 days) that was set by Trump during his first term. Throughout this time Trump and his MAGA Republicans in Congress have desperately sought to shift the blame to their Democratic colleagues who are are in the minority.

Donald Trump and Mike Johnson

Leading the crusade of disinformation is the GOP Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, who has single handedly closed the House of Representatives even though there is no reason that the House can’t be in session and get critical work done while federal government agencies are shuttered. The Senate is open for business. But Johnson doesn’t really want the shutdown to end for political reasons, and he has said so explicitly…

SEE THIS: MAGA Mike Johnson Admits that the Shutdown is ‘Something that We’ve All Always Wanted to Do’

What’s more, Johnson is also exploiting the shutdown in order to avoid swearing in newly elected Democratic representative Adelita Grijalva, who would provide the final signature necessary to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files that Trump is so terrified of becoming public.

Consequently, Johnson is pulling out all the stops to protect the Epstein pedophiles, including Trump, and to spread the most vile slander about Democrats that can muster. A couple of weeks ago Johnson was attacking Democrats, and millions of Americans who participated in the “No Kings” demonstrations, as “terrorists.” But now he is maniacally upping the ante by announcing the total demise of the Democratic Party. In a Monday morning press briefing, Johnson railed that…

“What we’re witnessing is truly the end of the Democratic Party as we’ve known it. And even some Democrats are saying that out loud. You can see it in their interviews. I watched one last night.

“All of this is directly related to the Democrats’ shutdown show. Why? Because just like they decided to save their own skin, that they had to endorse the Marxist Mamdani in an unprecedented move, they have also decided that they had to shutdown the government in an unprecedented move, no matter the pain that inflicts on the hard working American people. They are simply more afraid of the Marxists in their party than they are of voters.”

There’s a surprising quantity of flat out idiocy in that brief oratory. Let’s begin with the fact that the Democratic Party is very much alive. In fact, it is polling better than Republicans, particularly on the shutdown, with 45% blaming the Republicans and only 39% pointing to the Democrats. And while Johnson claims that he has seen Democrats saying their party is dead, he doesn’t name names. But that’s only because he’s lying.

Johnson went on to malign the leading candidate for mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, as a Marxist. Which is another lie that he and his fellow GOP Republicans are chanting in lockstep unison like good little fascists.

Finally, Johnson perpetuates the lie that Democrats are responsible for the pain being inflicted on the American people by the shutdown that has been orchestrated by Republicans. They are the majority party in both the House and the Senate. Their party leader is occupying the White House. It is their responsibility to negotiate a bipartisan deal that serves the best interests of all Americans.

Johnson, however, won’t consider doing that because he is the one who is more afraid of Dear Leader than of the voters. Johnson, in the fashion of history’s most notorious political servants to dictators, has completely abdicated his role as Speaker of the House to his master, Donald the Trump. And to make his humiliation even more pronounced, Johnson posted a video of President Obama blasting Republicans for shutting down the government during his term. But Johnson doesn’t realize that Obama’s arguments are even more damning now to today’s Republicans…

King Trump Craves a ‘Forever’ Shutdown, Whining that ‘You Can’t Make a Deal With These Lunatics’

Posted by on October 19, 2025 at 2:12 pm. 1 Comments :

On October 18, 2025, the American people came out in record numbers to oppose the emerging authoritarian dictatorship of Donald Trump. It was the biggest nationwide protest in the history of the United States. And it affirmed the determination of the people to defend democracy and the constitutional principles upon which the country was founded.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

The “No Kings” rallies held in more than 2,700 communities throughout the nation were also a peaceful exhibition of free speech by patriots that Trump’s cult operatives (i.e. Karoline Leavitt and Mike Johnson) and MAGA media (i.e. Fox News and Newsmax) called terrorists, criminals, and members of the imaginary Antifa organization.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary and Fox News Go All-In Maligning Democrats as Hamas Terrorists and Antifa

The day after the No Kings rallies, October 19, 2025, Trump sought to shovel his way out of the ditch he had dug himself into. So naturally he booked an interview with Fox News Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo. They managed to avoid the subject of the massively successful protests the day before, and the GOP’s pathetic attempts to malign them.

Instead, Bartiromo asked Trump about his shutdown of the government that he is trying blame on Democrats. Bartiromo began by asking a surprisingly rational question question. Unfortunately, she didn’t get a remotely rational reply.

Bartiromo: You’re gonna have to compromise around something with healthcare subsidies to end this thing?
Trump: I don’t know. Here’s the problem. They wanna give $1.5 [trillion] … They have a deal. We have a deal. We just want an extension. And the reason we want an extension is because you can’t make a deal with these people. They’re lunatics. They’ve gone crazy. They’re crazed people. Trump Derangement Syndrome. There really is that disease. At first I found it to be amusing. Now I find that it really is.

Trump on the Democrats: "You can't make a deal with these people. They're lunatics. They've gone crazy. They're crazed people. Trump Derangement Syndrome."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-10-19T15:40:40.392Z

Ironically, the guy who pretends to have written a book titled “The Art of the Deal,” is incapable of actually making one. The extension he’s referring to is one that would allow healthcare subsidies for millions of Americans to expire, doubling or tripling their premiums. And the reason Trump gives for failing to reach a deal is that the Democrats are “lunatics.” Never mind that it is Trump who has refused to negotiate, and his minions in Congress who explicitly admitted that the shutdown is “something that we’ve all always wanted to do.”

In the same interview, Trump embraced a never ending shutdown saying that “I think that they could just stay out forever.” And he salivated at the prospect of terminating programs that benefit poor Americans, saying that the shutdown “gives me the right to cut programs that Republicans never wanted…welfare programs, etc.” It doesn’t. At least no legally.

Trump is bragging that he is going to cut programs that help poor Americans. Which he can't do legally.He is happy to be hurting millions of low income Americans – including Republicans – and is admitting that it is Democrats who really care about the people.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-19T17:38:27.707Z

Trump’s references to “Trump Derangement Syndrome” actually have a ring of truth to them. He surely does suffer from an acute mental illness that affects his ability to grasp reality. Particularly the reality of how unpopular he and his agenda are. A recent poll found that…

“Seven in ten Americans side with Democrats in saying that Obamacare subsidies should be extended. {Adding that} “A lot more people are blaming the president and congressional Republicans than Democrats. [47% to 30%]”

However, if you are looking for a demonstration of how Trump really feels about the American people, look no further than his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, where he posted this absolutely nauseating AI slop video of himself as a king (of course), flying a jet fighter, and bombing/defecating on citizens exercising their constitutional rights…

Herr Trump posted this AI video that accurately expresses how much he hates the American people and the principles this nation stands for.It is more evidence that he is deranged, infantile, and utterly unfit to serve. How can any patriot support this disgusting behavior?

Trump’s Press Secretary and Fox News Go All-In Maligning Democrats as Hamas Terrorists and Antifa

Posted by on October 16, 2025 at 2:53 pm. 0 Comments :

The Olympic-grade hypocrisy of Donald Trump and his servile Republican Party has already proven to be unmatched for outrageous hyperbole and dangerously reckless rhetoric aimed at inciting fear, hatred, and, yes, violence. It is a daily ritual for the MAGA cult to be baptized in the toxicity of the far-right’s neo-fascism.

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

Donald Trump and Karoline Leavitt

So, true to form, the spokesperson for the MAGAtist-In-Chief, Karoline Leavitt, upped the ante on Thursday morning during yet another interview on Fox News. Like so many of Trump’s Cabinet members, she seems to make more appearances there than she does in the White House Press Room. And on this occasion she was loaded for bear. Even more than usual.

SEE THIS: Trump Cult Priestess, Karoline Leavitt, Preaches the Divine Infallibility of Dear Leader

Leavitt was taking questions from Fox News while the government was in the midst of the third week of the Trump Shutdown. Which has been going very badly for the administration whose excuses were falling flat with the American people who knew better than to believe Trump and Company. Consequently, she desperately needed a distraction. And what she chose was this bit of vile defamation…

“The Democrat Party’s main constituency are made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals. That is who the Democrat Party is catering to. Not the Trump administration, and not the White House, and not the Republican Party, who is standing up for law abiding Americans, not just across the country, but around the world.”

Leavitt: "The Democrat Party's main constituency is made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-16T17:09:37.030Z

Note that Leavitt isn’t merely accusing Democratic leaders or politicians or media of being terrorists and criminals, as the MAGA Klan often do. Nope. Now she is accusing their constituents. Which means Democratic voters. That’s at least half the country. It’s a major escalation of hostilities by the Trump regime.

What’s more, Leavitt couldn’t be more mistaken in her maliciousness. After all, it’s Trump who is the criminal with 34 felony convictions. He is the one who pardoned hundreds of rioters who stormed the Capitol and assaulted cops. He has supported the terrorist actions of Vladimir Putin against civilians in Ukraine, and Benjamin Netanyahu’s genocide in Gaza. He directs his own terrorist actions against potentially innocent fishermen in the Caribbean. Not to mention his hostile invasions of U.S. cities with military troops. Yet Trump et al project their own malfeasance onto their enemies.

MORE HERE: Republican Leaders Call Millions of Americans Who Support the ‘No Kings’ Protests ‘Terrorists’

As for “standing up for law abiding Americans,” Trump has issued pardons for his friends, and convicted criminals, such as Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Peter Navarro, and many more. And it is Trump who continues to cover up for his pedo-pal, Jeffrey Epstein. An aversion to being law abiding seems to be a prerequisite for entry into Trump’s inner circle.

Meanwhile, Leavitt is also promoting a Fox News smear campaign involving the nonexistent organization, Antifa, which the Trump regime has tried to link to Democrats. A story by Fox News asserts that Trump’s “Justice” Department has filed its first charges against alleged Antifa conspirators, saying that…

“A federal grand jury indicted two alleged Antifa members with terrorism-related charges for a July 4 attack on an ICE facility in Texas. […] ‘For the first time ever, the FBI has arrested anarchist violent extremists and charged these Antifa-aligned individuals with material support to terrorism,’ FBI Director Kash Patel said in a statement.”

There’s just one little problem with that. Although the terms “Antifa” and “Antifa Cell” were used repeatedly throughout the Fox News story and the descriptive text of the indictment, and even by Trump’s FBI Director Kash Patel, the word “Antifa” was not mentioned once in the seven actual counts against the defendants. And since there is no such thing as Antifa, it is not surprising that prosecutors could not make legal assertions of membership in an imaginary group.

This is how Trump and his MAGA cohorts are “toning down the rhetoric” that they pretend to believe is so divisive and dangerous. To they contrary, they have been the worst practitioners of vicious invectives to stir up trouble. They know what they’re doing and what the consequences are. They just simply don’t care.

HUH? Trump Promises to Work with ‘Radical Left Democrats’ on ‘the Things They Want to Destroy’

Posted by on October 11, 2025 at 1:09 pm. 0 Comments :

The Trump Shutdown is now ten days old, and there is no hint of any resolution on the horizon. What there is are incessant lies by Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies who are trying to blame the shutdown on Democrats who have no control over any branch of the government.

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

Donald Trump WTF

The only reason that the shutdown continues is that Republicans have steadfastly refused to engage in any negotiations with Democrats. That’s because 1) Republicans are terrified of the prospect of having to vote on releasing the Trump-riddled Epstein files, and 2) the GOP is dead set against allowing any compromise that would prevent healthcare costs from skyrocketing as a result of their brutal funding cuts and hatred of migrants, and the thought that they might receive life-saving care in an emergency.

SEE THIS: Trump Unites America – In Opposition to His Shutdown and His Skyrocketing Healthcare Costs

That’s why after a week and a half Trump is posting bizarre rants on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, seeking to shift blame for the shutdown on Democrats. Like his arguments on almost any subject, they are entirely devoid of logic, which he replaces with anger and insults. On Saturday morning he raged that…

“Chuck Schumer recently said, ‘Every day gets better’ during their Radical Left Shutdown. I DISAGREE! If nothing is done, because of ‘Leader’ Chuck Schumer and the Democrats, our Brave Troops will miss the paychecks they are rightfully due on October 15th. […] The Radical Left Democrats should OPEN THE GOVERNMENT, and then we can work together to address Healthcare, and many other things that they want to destroy.”

Of course, Trump is being deliberately dishonest with his reference to Schumer saying “Every day gets better.” Schumer was explicitly referring to the fact that the public is increasingly siding with Democrats against Trump and the GOP. The people recognize that it is the responsibility of the majority party in Congress to shape a compromise on a budget bill that will pass. Democrats have no power to do that.

Trump puts a spotlight on the Republicans’ refusal to negotiate by adding that he is only willing to “work together” with the “Radical Left Democrats” on “things that they want to destroy.” WTF does that even mean? Is Trump saying that he is amenable to destroying things in concert with Democrats? Why would he do that? Democrats, of course, don’t want to do that.

This is entirely a Trump thing, It’s obvious that he is just spewing noxious nonsense as a way of avoiding doing the work that the people expect from a president and their representatives in Congress. And contrary to Trump’s limp demand, Democrats cannot “OPEN THE GOVERNMENT.” Especially when the Republican leaders in Congress refuse to even come to work.

Trump also said that he’s directing his Secretary of “War,” Pete Hegseth, to “use all available funds to get our Troops PAID.” But he doesn’t say from where he would get these funds during a government shutdown. He also accuses Democrats of holding the nation hostage, which is, of course, what Trump and the GOP are doing. But at least he admits that the shutdown is “dangerous.” Previously he has been celebrating it as an opportunity to fire government workers. But only the Democratic ones.

It’s telling that the guy who pretends to have written a book on “The Art of the Deal,” is so pathetically incapable of making any deals. If Trump thinks that insulting Democrats as “radical,” and offering to work with them to “destroy” things is going to lead to them making a deal, he is even more deranged that we thought. And that’s really saying something.

MAGA Mike Johnson Admits that the Shutdown is ‘Something that We’ve All Always Wanted to Do’

Posted by on October 1, 2025 at 1:39 pm. 0 Comments :

IT’S HERE! The long feared government shutdown has begun. It’s the first one since the last time that Donald Trump was occupying the White House. What does that tell you? And despite all the evidence – including the fact that Republicans control both houses of the legislative branch – Trump and his MAGA cronies are trying desperately to blame it all on Democrats.

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

Donald Trump, Congress, Mike Johnson

The spin from the GOP is predictably centered on their hateful and racist fixation on immigrants. They are outright lying that Democrats are withholding their votes in order to obtain free healthcare for “illegal aliens.” Never mind that no Democrat is proposing that or even suggesting it as a condition for passage of the budget bill. And Republicans can’t provide any proof of their dishonest claim. Which is typical of the GOP.

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

Surprisingly, on Wednesday morning GOP House Speaker MAGA Mike Johnson decided to tell the truth for a change. During an interview with Fox News Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, Johnson admitted that shutting down the government was a long desired goal of the Republican Party….

Bartiromo: Trump has said that he could use this as an opportunity to further cut government and turn some of those temporary furloughs into permanent job cuts. Speaker, can you assess what you are expecting in terms of the job cuts and how severe they could be?
Johnson: Yes, the president and I talked about this at great length. While, a shutdown is very damaging for real American people who depend upon government services, it can provide an opportunity to downsize the scope and the scale of government, which is something that we’ve all always wanted to do.

So in a way, Chuck Schumer has now handed the keys to the kingdom to the executive branch under President Trump to do some things that we would not otherwise be able to do because we would never get Democrat votes for them.

Johnson: “While a shutdown is very damaging for real American people who depend upon government services, it can provide an opportunity to downsize the scope and the scale of government, which is something that we've all always wanted to do.”

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-10-01T14:07:33.799Z

And there you have it. Johnson has explicitly stated that the shutdown – and the brutal consequences for the American people – is “something that we’ve all always wanted to do.” And he says this even as he acknowledges that it would be “very damaging for real American people.” So clearly he has thought this through.

Johnson went on to praise Russ Vought, a principal author of “Project 2025,” who is now in charge of Trump’s Office of Management and Budget, saying that “He gets to decide now what services are essential, what programs and policies should be continued, and which would not be a priority for taxpayers.” It should be comforting to the nation to know that the author of the notorious authoritarian handbook will be making those critical decisions. Although it isn’t any more discomforting than knowing that critical decisions are already being made by Johnson and Trump considering how “unhinged and unwell” Trump is. And Johnson seems to know that too…

WOW, REALLY? In this exchange Mike Johnson…? Doesn't deny that Trump is "unhinged and unwell," just that he thinks some Democrats are too.? Claims he didn't see Trump's deranged speech to an unprecedented gathering of military leaders. Even after it made international news.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-02T09:33:51.151Z

For his part, Trump has previously expressed his agreement with what Johnson is saying now. “We can do things during the shutdown,” Trump noted gleefully, “that are irreversible and bad for them like cutting vast numbers of people out.” He’s referring to cutting people out of their healthcare programs. And for some reason Trump seems to think that this will only be bad for Democrats. It won’t be long before he finds out that Independents, and even some Republicans, are also going to be hurt – and pissed off.

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

Posted by on September 23, 2025 at 1:18 pm. 0 Comments :

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.

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

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

Posted by on September 15, 2025 at 12:32 pm. 0 Comments :

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!

Crybaby Trump Posts a Rambling Rant Begging People to Stop Talking About Jeffrey Epstein

Posted by on September 5, 2025 at 1:53 pm. 1 Comments :

On Friday morning the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released its monthly report on jobs for August 2025. The numbers were a painfully low 22,000, missing economist’s predictions of 75,000. However, they were consistent with the poor performance that Donald Trump has delivered for each of the past seven months since his reoccupation of the White House.

Donald Trump, Twitter

This report was prepared after Trump fired the head of the BLS last month because he didn’t like the terrible results reported then. It’s what Trump does whenever he’s not satisfied that government agencies are lavishing sufficient praise on him that he doesn’t deserve.

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

Trump generally responds to this sort of news with wildly incoherent harangues posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. On this occasion, however, he posted nothing about the report at all. What he did post was a tediously long screed about the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein scandal.

So Trump was so worried about the potential harm from the abysmal jobs report that he poured more fuel on the Epstein fire that he has been trying desperately to extinguish for several weeks. What follows are a few select excerpts with annotations.

“[Democrats] did nothing about Jeffrey Epstein while he was alive except befriend him, socialize with him, travel to his Island, and take his money!”
Those are, of course, all things done by Republicans and politically unaffiliated wealthy men. Most notably, Donald Trump himself. Also, many Democrats were calling the release of the Epstein files since way back when he died in prison.

“[Democrats], out of nowhere, are seeming to show such love and heartfelt concern for his victims.”
Which even now, Trump and the GOP are incapable of. To the contrary, he has been disparaging the victims as liars and perpetrators of a hoax.

“Where were they during his very public trials?”
Trump is hallucinating again. Epstein never stood for trial. He agreed to a controversial plea bargain on state charges in 2008 (negotiated with Trump’s current Attorney General, Pam Bondi, and his former Labor Secretary, Alex Acosta). Then he died before his federal trial on sex trafficking on Trump’s watch in 2019.

“The now dying…Epstein case was only brought back to life by the Radical Left Democrats.”
The case was revived by Trump’s reelection and his appointment of Bondi and Kash Patel (FBI Director). Trump, Bondi, and Patel were all loud advocates for releasing all of the Epstein files during the 2024 campaign. But they all abandoned that position after taking office. That led to mostly Trump supporters, not Democrats, demanding that they keep their campaign promises.

“[T]he DOJ gave thousands of pages of documents in full compliance with a very comprehensive and exacting Subpoena from Congress! […] The Department of Justice has done its job, they have given everything requested of them.”
Trump and his Justice Department have twice released thousands of pages of documents that were already public. And even those amount to a tiny percentage (about 3%) of the total, which also includes videos. It is a far cry from “everything requested.”

“This is merely another Democrat HOAX, just like Russia, Russia, Russia, and all of the others, in order to deflect and distract from the great success of a Republican President.”
Tell that to the victims. Oh, wait. He did. And as for his “great success,” he’s proven that with the latest jobs report, along with his failure to lower the cost of living, end the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, or fulfill any of his other promises, except for harassing immigrants and persecuting his political foes.

“It’s time to end the Democrat Epstein Hoax.”
This can be done by Trump simply directing the DoJ to release all of the Epstein files, that he still refuses to do. What is he so afraid of? And his repetitious use of the “hoax” label for everything that he disputes has become cartoonishly comical.

So in his attempt to deflect from how badly he has botched his duty to create jobs for the American people, he has managed to steer attention to Epstein, the subject that he was previously working so hard to deflect from. Now both of these fiascos are uppermost on the minds of the American public. Nice Work, Donnie.

Trump’s Propaganda Minister Maligns the Democratic Party as a ‘Domestic Extremist Organization’

Posted by on August 26, 2025 at 1:46 pm. 2 Comments :

In the process of emulating the authoritarian regimes that he so admires, Donald Trump is executing the very same strategies perfected by the oppressive dictators who have preceded him. He is parroting their domination of government, the legislature, the judiciary, and the media. He has clearly studied the playbook authored by the likes of Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un.

Fox News, Stephen Miller

The evidence of Trump’s autocratic ambitions is apparent in his disrespect for court orders, his rounding up of those he considers “undesirable,” his purging of career civil servants who fail to declare their devotion to him, and his punishing the press that doesn’t publish glowingly positive reviews of his every word and deed.

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

Assisting Trump in this mission to transform America into a fascist state is his Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller – aka Santa Monice Goebbels. As a senior White House official, Miller holds great sway with Trump and directs much of the activity that is generated from the Oval Office.

In his capacity as Minister of Propaganda, Miller regularly appears on Trump’s Disinformation Network, Fox News, to unveil the administration’s anti-American edicts. In his latest harangue Miller whines to Sean Hannity that Democrats are not thanking Trump for deploying military troops throughout major American cities (although only those led by Black mayors). But it’s much worse than that. Miller descends into a dystopian darkness wherein his political foes are no better than violent gangs and drug cartels. In fact, he literally accuses Democrats of being “dedicated exclusively” to such criminal outfits.

“Democrat Party does not fight for, represent, or care about American citizens. It is an entity dedicated exclusively to the defense of hardened criminals, gangbangers, and illegal alien killers and terrorists. The Democrat Party is not a political party. It is a domestic extremist organization. […] the Democrat Party as it exists today, it disgusts me. I do not recognize that party.”

Trump's Goebbels, Stephen Miller, on the Fox propaganda network yesterday: "The Democrat [sic] Party is not a political party. It is a domestic extremist organization."This clip is being promoted by Sean Hannity and Fox social media accounts on Facebook and TikTok and YouTube.

It is worth noting that Miller is not an Internet troll spewing garbage political rants to an audience of mentally challenged MAGA-ites. He is a senior official in the Trump White House. And he is accusing the Democratic Party of being the political representatives of criminals and terrorists. Which is a peculiar accusation coming from a top aide of Trump who is a convicted felon, and who has pardoned numerous other felons, including domestic terrorists (See January 6th).

It is also worth noting that the Democratic Party’s registration exceeds that of Republicans or Independents. So Miller’s malicious comments are damning the majority party of the American people.

What’s more, Miller’s choice of words puts Democrats into the same category of slime bucket as MS-13, the Sinaloa Cartel, Tren de Aragua, etc. And by doing so he is setting the stage for Democrats to be legally harassed by Trump’s “Justice” Department, and even to be incarcerated or deported under national security based policies aimed at those that Trump has designated as domesticate terrorists.

Making matters even worse, while Miller was on Fox News, Trump was holding court at the White House and telling the assembled press that many in their own ranks were equally as guilty of being domestic terrorists. Responding to a question about his migrant harassment policies, Trump said that…

“They showed one scene where a bunch of Tren de Aragua guys, or whatever. Maybe MS-13. Maybe MSDNC, Okay? Because to me, they’re worse. MSNBC maybe is worse than Tren de Aragua. Real scum.”

Trump: "MSNBC maybe is worse than Tren de Aragua."

This remark may have started out as an uncomfortably unfunny joke, but Trump quickly changed to a more obviously serious tone. It was not unlike his recent comments wherein he approvingly referred to the many people who he says would “rather have a dictator” than a president. It’s the second time he’s said that in two days. Is he trying to condition his flock to accept him in that role?

Trump: "The line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime. So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.'"
