Republicans Learn Nothing From Their Electoral Spanking, but Trump Learns to Savor Dictatorship

Posted by on November 5, 2025 at 1:53 pm. 0 Comments :

The results of the 2025 elections were an unqualified blowout for Democrats who won every one of the most consequential contests. They won governorships in New Jersey and Virginia. they won the mayoral race in New York City. They won the California redistricting initiative that will be a prelude to similar measures in other states.

Donald Trump, Biggest Loser

Republicans on the other hand lost by unexpectedly large margins. The races mentioned above were not even close. That sort of collapse is generally a harbinger of hard times ahead for the party at the bottom of the heap. And yet, their response to this smackdown is to doubledown on their extremist MAGA-tism with ever more radical proposals that, in many cases, will help Democrats more than the pitifully desperate GOP.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Threats to Nuke the Filibuster Could Lead to a Republican Nightmare

Confirming that Republicans are infected with a fatal case of flop sweat, their Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, held a post-election press conference to exhibit just how removed he is from reality. He told the assemble media that…

“I don’t think the loss last night was any reflection about Republicans at all. I think people are frustrated and angry, as we are, I am, the president is, and we express that in different ways. But we’re looking forward to a great election running on our record.”

Mike Johnson: "I don't think the loss last night was any reflection about Republicans at all. I think people are frustrated and angry, as we are, I am, the president is, and we express that different ways."

Does this election outcome reflect on Republicans? Of course not. Why would the overwhelming votes of millions of people have anything to do with the party that lost so badly? Although, Johnson is right that “people are frustrated and angry.” At Republicans. Which also explains why he and Trump are angry and frustrated.

As for running on their record, Johnson and his MAGA minions are welcome to do that. And Democrats will be happy to help. It’s record that consists of higher prices, less democracy, military invasions of U.S. cities, inflationary tariffs, tax cuts for the rich, skyrocketing healthcare premiums, cutting off food aid, murdering alleged drug traffickers with no evidence, censoring comedians, and protecting pedophiles. What could go wrong?

For his part, Trump followed up the election debacle with a commentary that not only put his ignorance of the plight of the American people on display, it provided further evidence of his mental deficiency. He told a reporters that…

“All we want is voter ID. You go to a grocery store, you have to give ID. You go to a gas station, you give ID. But for voting they want no voter ID. It’s only for one reason: because they cheat.”

Donald Trump has never been to a grocery store or a gas station.Which may explain why he doesn't know or care that groceries and gas is still to expensive. How do MAGAts think this guy is in touch with their lives.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-05T17:59:04.774Z

What’s more, if that wasn’t bad enough, Trump offered his excuse for the electoral catastrophe in a posting to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In a typically pathetic comment he whined that…

“TRUMP WASN’T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT.”

HAHAHAHAHA…Trump thinks he wasn't on the ballot. He's the reason that turnout for Democrats hit record levels. But he's right that the #TrumpShutdown was part of the reason for the GOP election losses.Congratulations California, New Jersey, Virginia, New York, and America.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-05T08:39:23.560Z

If Trump really thinks that he wasn’t on the ballot, he is more cognitively diminished than we thought. Exit polls showed that many voters specifically showed up at the polls to register their disapproval of Trump. And no one was more insistent that his influence would be a key factor in the election outcomes than he was. As for the government shutdown that he and his GOP confederates orchestrated – and continue to prolong – that was indeed a significant reason for why voters came out in droves for Democrats.

The attitude of Trump and the Republican Party in the wake of their devastating losses is proof that that have no capacity whatsoever for self-reflection or any ability to learn from their mistakes. Which is good news for Democrats. It means that the GOP won’t bother to correct course between now and the midterm elections in 2026. Consequently, the defeats that they suffered yesterday will only be magnified next year. We can hardly wait.

Trump Calls Tens of Thousands of Jews in New York ‘Stupid’ for Voting for Zohran Mamdani

Posted by on November 4, 2025 at 12:48 pm. 2 Comments :

It’s Election Day in parts of America and Donald Trump is freaking out because he knows that his candidates and issues are likely to go down hard. Democrats running for governor of New Jersey and Virginia are leading in the polls. And the redistricting initiative in California, that could create five new Democratic districts, is expected to pass in landslide.

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

Donald Trump, MAGA

Consequently, Trump is behaving just as you might have predicted. He’s lashing out furiously with the sort of vicious and incoherent tirades you’d expect from a grossly impudent five year old. It’s an extension of his recent lie-riddled interview on CBS’ “60 Minutes” where he couldn’t string two sentences together without mangling reality or maligning a political foe.

SEE THIS: FACT CHECK: Serial Liar Trump Unleashed a Fury of Flagrant Falsehoods (aka Lies) on 60 Minutes

On Tuesday morning Trump previewed the outcomes of the elections being held with his transparently pessimistic perspective in a series of comments on his failing Twitter rip off, Truth Social. Among the tantrums Trump is throwing is one where he whines about “rigged” voting in California, where he’s already conceding defeat. And then there’s the one where he demands that Republicans “terminate the filibuster.” Which isn’t such a bad idea. And he also celebrates low ratings for MSNBC, while ignoring that Fox News declined 36% in the past year. And he announces that he will defy a court order to distribute SNAP benefits to needy families.

However, perhaps the most profoundly grotesque comment was the one where he literally called tens of thousands of Jews in New York City “stupid” if the vote for Democratic mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani. Trump ranted that…

“Any Jewish person that votes for Zohran Mamdani, a proven and self professed JEW HATER, is a stupid person!!!”

Trump, who dines with neo-Nazis at Mar-a-Lago, is calling hundreds of thousands of Jews in New York "stupid." (Fox News poll, Jewish voters: Mamdani 38%, Cuomo 42%).FTR: Mamdani is a "self-professed" advocate for ALL New Yorkers. As usual Trump is lying.www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news…

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-04T17:23:46.695Z

What a great closing argument by Trump for the mayoral race wherein he has half-heartedly endorsed the disgraced former governor, Andrew Cuomo. Insult one of the biggest voting demographics in the city with a blatantly anti-Semitic taunt. And it’s a voting bloc that was shown in a recent Fox News poll to have significant support for Mamdani, being virtually tied with Cuomo (Mamdani 38%, Cuomo 42%).

This is especially disgusting considering that Trump is a well known “Jew Hater.” He has actually dined with Nick Fuentes, an avowed neo-Nazi, at his Mar-a-Lago hotel/home. And Nick arrived with his anti-Semitic pal, Kanye West, where they both sat at Trump’s table. Trump is also the leader of the party whose “Young Republicans” were recently exposed in online chats saying that they “love Hitler.” Trump never bothered to rebuke those sentiments.

The desperation in Trump’s election day rants is unlikely to change the outcome of today’s races. If anything, it might make the defeat of Trump’s candidates and issues even more pronounced. And we can expect that before the sunrises on Wednesday, Trump will be insisting that all of the races were “rigged and stolen.” And he’ll probably blame it all on President Biden who, in Trump’s cartoon brain, is both a political genius and a mental basket case.

Is Trump’s Secretary of ‘War’ Outlining Plans to Deploy the Military to Steal the Next Election?

Posted by on October 24, 2025 at 12:44 pm. 0 Comments :

In case anyone is still unconvinced that Donald Trump is plotting to make himself America’s first dictator, some comments made by his Secretary of “War” (a fake Cabinet post), Pete Hegseth, ought to clear it all up. That’s if Trump’s authoritarian moves to invade American cities, illegally impose tariffs on U.S. trading partners, prosecute (persecute) his political foes, ignore judicial rulings, and suppress the media, haven’t already done the trick.

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

Pete Hegseth with Drunk Emoji

Trump has demonstrated that he has no respect whatsoever for the United States Constitution or the principles it has represented for more than two centuries. And that disrespect is being parroted by Hegseth, whose recent edicts banishing the free press from the Pentagon are only the beginning of the Trump regime’s crusade to undermine democracy.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Secretary of War on the Press, Pete Hegseth, Is Rebuked By the Media He’s Trying to Censor

On Friday Hegseth joined Trump for a press avail at the White House where he engaged in the following exchange with a reporter…

Question: A memo circulating on social media details the establishment of a National Guard Response Force that’s going to be trained in crowd control and civil unrest and deployed in all 50 states by April of 2026. Can you verify the authenticity of that memo, and do you have any more information on the operation?
Hegseth: I’m not going to answer particulars on something that may be in the planning process. But we definitely do have multiple layers of National Guard response forces in each state…and we will [deploy them] when necessary.”

What Trump's Secretary of "War," Pete Hegseth, is not denying is the Trump regime's plans to undermine democracy in upcoming elections.The military has no legal role in domestic crowd control or civil unrest. Unless they intend to be propping up a wannabe king. #NoKings!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-24T09:58:56.336Z

It is impossible to ignore the fact that Hegseth did not disavow the report about the ominously named “National Guard Response Force.” To the contrary, he confirmed that it “definitely” exists. What possible reason could Trump and Hegseth have for forming such a force? It has never existed before. And the timing puts it smack in the middle of the 2026 election season.

It is not much of a stretch to speculate that Trump has tasked Hegseth with leading a mission to obstruct the will of the people should they vote to remove Republicans as the majority party in Congress. Many polls currently show that Democrats have a good chance of prevailing in both the House and the Senate. And wannabe king Trump simply can’t allow that to happen.

On January 6, 2021, Trump incited a deadly insurrection in Washington, D.C., in an attempt to hold on to power after President Biden beat him. Trump later pardoned the 1,500 rioters, making them available for future violent uprisings, and reassuring them and others that they would be similarly protected should they riot again.

More recently, GOP House Speaker, Mike Johnson, has been stubbornly refusing to swear in a newly elected Democratic representative. Many people are accusing him of trying avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files. That’s possible. But another possibility is that he is testing his ability to block Democrats from taking control of the House if they win a majority next November.

Hegseth’s admission that he is ready to deploy a military force in all 50 states if “necessary” should trouble every patriotic American. We should all seek clarification as to what he means by “necessary.” But more importantly, every American must resist any attempts by Hegseth, Trump, or the rest of the MAGA regime, to steal our votes and deprive us of our democratic free will. This is not a drill!

Wannabe King Trump Threatens New Yorkers to Vote Against Mamdani or Suffer His Wrath

Posted by on September 29, 2025 at 10:38 am. 1 Comments :

Donald Trump isn’t doing much to dispel the notion that he is an aspiring authoritarian who yearns to reign like the dictators he admires, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. To the contrary, he keeps providing additional evidence of his autocratic tendencies, even as he whines about being called a fascist.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

This week Trump directed his “Justice” Department to indict former FBI Director, James Comey, despite having no evidence of any crime. He deployed his StormTrumpers to Portland, Oregon, promising to use “full force” against the American citizens living there. He delivered an absolutely bonkers address at the United Nations where he told other member nations that “your countries are going to hell,” and complained about alleged sabotage of his escalator ride and TelePrompTer. This is not normal behavior for a president – or anyone else.

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

On Monday morning Trump upped the ante of presidential idiocy by issuing a threat to the people of New York City. He posted a comment to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that was rife with animus and imaginary invectives. He raged that…

“Self proclaimed New York City Communist, Zohran Mamdani, who is running for Mayor, will prove to be one of the best things to ever happen to our great Republican Party. He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City. Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises. He won’t be getting any of it, so what’s the point of voting for him? This ideology has failed, always, for thousands of years. It will fail again, and that’s guaranteed! President DJT”

Let’s begin to break this down by noting that Mamdani is not now, nor has ever been, a communist. And he has certainly never self-proclaimed to be one. Trump likely couldn’t define the word if his life depended on it. But he uses it as an all-purpose slur to fear monger his weak willed cult followers. And if he really thought that this “will prove to be one of the best things to ever happen to our great Republican Party,” he would keep his fat mouth shut. Obviously, he is scared witless of Mamdani and the Democrats in the Empire State.

More to the point, Trump is threating the citizens of New York with unspeakable harm if they choose to exercise their right to vote, but fail to select the candidate of Trump’s choice. His threat violates several federal statutes that prohibit him from abusing the power of his office to intimidate or punish people for how they vote. The Constitution also forbids him from misappropriating funds based on political criteria.

This is just another act of pure totalitarianism for Trump as he tries to interfere with an election by promising to withhold federal funds. Those funds would be used to pay for many critical services in the city and the state, including Medicaid, transportation, infrastructure, safety net services, education, healthcare, and more. He wants all New Yorkers to suffer if they do not obey his electoral demands.

This is a particularly grotesque threat considering that New York is a “donor” state, meaning that it pays more into the federal treasury every year than it gets back. That’s about $89 billion more. And yet, Trump thinks that he can punish New Yorkers by denying them these funds as if they came out of his own pocket. In reality, they come from New Yorkers themselves. Maybe they should withhold those funds from Trump’s regime in Washington.

This should not be considered just a threat toward New York. If Trump thinks he can do this to NYC, then he could try to do it to any city or state that doesn’t bend to his fascist will. And submitting to threats like this will only embolden him and his criminally dictatorial bullying. He cannot be allowed to blackmail voters.

We have a process for choosing representatives in America 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. But “we the people” do care. And he had better learn that lesson.

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!

Trump Admits that His Reason for Moving Space Force HQ from Colorado to Alabama is Petty Politics

Posted by on September 2, 2025 at 2:11 pm. 0 Comments :

If there is one thing that we’ve learned over the past few years, it’s that everything that Donald Trump does is driven by what he determines is best for him. Whether it is to enrich himself through scammy business enterprises, or to increase his power through authoritarian practices. He is laser focused on advancing his own interests at the expense of everyone else.

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

Donald Trump, Snake Tongue

The evidence of Trump’s selfishness and greed is apparent in his constant grifting from the White House. He peddles everything from hats (made in China), to crypto-coins, to Trump Bibles (also made in China), and so much more. A good deal of his profiteering is managed by the company he set up to serve as his propaganda platform.

SEE THIS: The Trump Media and Technology Group (Truth Social) Scam Reflects His Fondness for Fraud

On Tuesday Trump disclosed that he would be making a special announcement from the White House. It was so important that he arrived nearly an hour late. When he finally showed up he revealed that he had made the decision to move the Space Force headquarters from Colorado to Alabama, Which is a ridiculous idea. It will cost hundreds of millions of dollars for no discernible gain. NORAD is already based in Colorado. While Alabama is in the middle of the nation’s hurricane zone. However, Trump did eventually get around to offering his reason for the move saying that…

“The problem I have with Colorado – they do mail-in voting. They went to all mail-in voting. So they have automatically crooked elections. And we can’t have that. When the state is for mail-in voting that means they want dishonest elections, because that’s what that means. So that played a big factor also.”

Trump on moving Space Force base from Colorado: "The problem I have with Colorado — they do mail in voting. They went to all mail in voting, so they have automatically crooked elections. And we can't have that."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-09-02T18:53:55.736Z

Of course, Trump has had a longstanding aversion to mail-in voting. Mainly because any procedure that makes it easier for people to participate in democracy is anathema to him and the Republican Party. He recently decreed via a preposterous and unlawful executive order that he is abolishing mail-in voting.

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

For the record, eight states and Washington, D.C., allow all elections to be conducted entirely by mail: California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Vermont and Washington state. Twenty-eight states offer “no-excuse” absentee voting, which means that any voter can request and cast an absentee/mail ballot for any reason.

So are we to assume that Trump will now discriminate against all of those states when it comes to any benefits that the federal government can dispense? That would be consistent with how Trump always seeks to punish or get revenge against anyone that he perceives as insufficiently worshipful. It is consistent with totalitarian dictatorships. But it is wholly inappropriate for a democratic leader.

In his remarks Trump also referred to several major American cities as “hellholes,” lied about tariff revenues, smeared some his political foes, exalted himself, and regurgitated several of his favorite scripted fallacies. But his admission to why he is moving the Space Force command is a particularly brazen and despicable example of his narcissistic corruption. And unless Democrats muster the courage to defy him, it won’t be the last.

Ted Cruz Tries to Smear Democrats for the ‘Most Egregious Gerrymanders’ but Fails Egregiously

Posted by on August 21, 2025 at 2:28 pm. NO Comments :

California Governor Gavin Newsom has been engaged in a fierce battle with Republicans who are plotting to steal the upcoming elections in 2026 and 2028. The GOP is scheming to rig the elections by imposing an unprecedented and unconstitutional mid-census redistricting in Texas and other red states at the behest of Donald Trump.

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

Ted Cruz, Donald Trump

To counter those moves by the GOP, Newsom is proposing that blue states like California do the same, unless the Republicans back off. In response to Newsom’s efforts, Republicans have tried to justify their election rigging by accusing Democrats of what the GOP is doing. It’s a wholly disingenuous argument coming from the people who started this redistricting war.

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

Among the Republicans who are trying to blame Democrats for the current political posturing is Texas senator Ted Cruz, who has made political posturing an art form. He posted a question on Twitter/X for Elon Musk’s AI bot, Grok, asking it to “Examine states with six or more congressional seats. Compile a list of the five most egregious gerrymanders.” Grok replied that it was both parties with Democrats being three out of the five…

That response didn’t really affirm that Democrats were more nefarious gerrymanderers, as Cruz had hoped. But neither was it a vindication of either party. So it seemed like it would be a good idea to expand the list beyond merely five states. And that produced a very different result…

The longer list shows that Republicans were the most egregious gerrymanderers in seven out of the top ten states. So Cruz was either deliberately distorting the results by limiting his question to five states, or he simply didn’t care to get a broader, more accurate view.

That’s typical of the modern, MAGA-infested Republican Party. They are purposefully seeking to deceive voters because they know that the truth will reflect badly on them. As Stephen Colbert once observed, “Reality has a well known liberal bias.”

This was confirmed last night by Fox News hack Sean Hannity, who complained about Newsom “spen[ding] the last several weeks bashing president Trump over the Texas redistricting fight while threatening to gerrymander his own state even more.” Hannity pretended to be concerned about whether this was helping or hurting Democrats. He concluded that it was hurting Newsom, despite polls showing Newsom’s approval rating surging since he began his redistricting fight and his hilarious, all-caps mockery of Trump’s Truth Social posts.

For good measure, Hannity also offered up his opinion of Newsom’s recent, more aggressive politicking. He criticized Newsom saying that his “performative confrontational style—maybe it wins you points with the loony radical base in your party but America is not going to vote for that record.” Does that description sound like anyone else you know?

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

Posted by on August 18, 2025 at 11:54 am. NO Comments :

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

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

Donald Trump, Vote By Mail

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

However, while Newsom was presenting his plan to the press, Trump’s thugs gathered outside of the venue where the press conference was being held and began arresting people. This neo-fascist tactic was reported by Aishah Hasnie on Fox News during an interview with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem…

Fox News: This is coming from our reporters in L.A. right now, where they say that Border Patrol has arrived outside of the downtown L.A. venue where Gov. Gavin Newsom is actually holding a press conference today. And it appears that those Border Patrol agents are making arrests of illegal immigrants.

I don’t know if they were at this press conference or they were in the area. But this is a very ‘in your face way’ to let Democrats know that you are gonna do your job. That you’re gonna carry out these Trump policies. Can you just respond to this video that we’re watching right now?

Noem: Every single one of our ICE Border Patrol operations is built on information, on investigative work. It’s a case and an operation that has been planned because of who they think could be in that area and what they have for information that shows that there are illegal criminals there. Remember, we’re focusing on the worst of the worst.

Hasnie accurately described the ICE actions as an “in your face way” of intimidating Democrats in general, and Newsom in particular. It is not a coincidence that ICE was operating right outside of the Newsom press conference. And neither Fox News nor Noem even tried to deny it. Noem virtually admitted that the operation was “planned because of who they think could be in that area.” And the only information that they had as to who would be there was Gavin Newsom.

Newsom was aware of what was taking place outside and he mentioned it during his address saying that “Right outside, at this exact moment, are dozens and dozens of ICE agents. Do you think it’s coincidental?” Newsom, however, was not intimidated by ICE or Trump. And he let them know in no uncertain terms, exposing Trump’s failures and weakness…

“He’s a failed president. Who else sends ICE at the same time we’re having a conversation like this? Someone who’s weak. Someone who’s broken. Someone whose weakness is masquerading as strength. The most unpopular president in modern history.”

Trump’s brazen escalation of hostile and anti-democratic assaults on his political foes should concern every American. He is becoming less and less hesitant about his authoritarian aspirations. And Newsom is taking the right approach in not allowing Trump to get away with any of it. The rest of the Democratic Party – and all American patriots – need to join this fight to halt Trump’s tyrannical takeover of the nation.

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

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

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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