Trump’s Border Czar Lies to Fox News that Protesters are Paid and He Will Prosecute the Funders

Posted by on September 7, 2025 at 1:22 pm. 0 Comments :

For most of his toxic tenure in the tainted world of Republican politics, Donald Trump has viciously vilified his political foes and openly advocated for their persecution by his legal attack dogs in what used to be called the Department of Justice. Perhaps he will try to rename it the Department of Judgment to go along with his new Department of War.

Fox News, Constitution

Already in the first few months of his second occupation of the White House, Trump has directed his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to launch meritless investigations of everyone from Gov. Gavin Newsom, to Sen. Adam Schiff, to New York Attorney General Letitia James, to everyone who served honorably on the House Committee to Investigate January 6th. All driven by his personal animus and hunger for retribution.

SEE THIS: Trump’s ‘Weaponization Working Group’ Lives Down to Its Name with Threats to Persecute Democrats

On Sunday Trump dispatched his Migrant Harassment [and Border] Czar, Tom Homan, to Fox News to unleash another shipload of pure propaganda. The segment began with host Jason Chaffetz lining up a loaded, softball question for Homan…

Chaffetz: So those protesters that we do see, I mean, some of it might be organic, but does strike me, it seems, like a lot of them are being bused in. You see them at the end of these protests, actually getting back on buses. Are these protesters, the bulk of them, are they actually being financed from the outside? And is that something that Homeland’s looking at? Is the financing of how all these so-called organic protests are happening?
Homan: Absolutely. We know a lot of these protesters are being paid. Many have admitted to it. So, yes, there’s a whole effort right now in identifying those who are funding these operations, those who fund the weapons that are being used. So, yeah, and they’ll be held accountable too and held to the highest standards of the law. They will be prosecuted, too.

FOX: Are these protesters actually being financed from the outside, and is that something Homeland is looking at — the financing of how these so-called organic protests are happening?HOMAN: Absolutely … they will be prosecuted too

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-09-07T14:24:30.204Z

The suggestion by Chaffetz that protesters were “bused in” is intended to imply that they are not genuine protesters, but hired imposters. Like almost everything that Fox News airs, he has no evidence of that. Even if some protesters arrived in buses, it is not uncommon for people to organize transportation to a protest site. Chaffetz went on to ask whether the protesters were “financed from the outside.” Once again, that is a purely speculative commentary with no proof whatsoever.

Homan, however, took the bullpucky baton and ran with it. He affirmed that he will “absolutely” prosecute those who allegedly funded the protests. He claimed to “know a lot of these protesters are being paid.” Never mind that, despite his assertion, he is unable to name a single protester, much less many, who “admitted” to it.

Homan also claims that these mysterious funders were financing protesters with weapons. Which is peculiar, since none of them were found to be carrying any, and none were used during the protests. He is just escalating the accusations to instill more fear of a rich man who actually loves America. And, by the way, if Soros were funding some protesters, it is entirely legal to donate to groups who organize lawful protests. That is until Trump signs an executive order banning it in violation of the Constitution.

On the basis of those thin allegations, Hogan is promising to prosecute unnamed funders whose identities are still unknown. But rest assured it will likely lead to the rabid right’s perennial nemesis, George Soros. Trump himself recently threatened that “Soros should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests.” Which never happened. But that didn’t stop Trump from delivering the ominous warning that he “Be careful, we’re watching you!”

Soros is only guilty of having the audacity to criticize Dear Leader and to allegedly help other American citizens who share those criticisms to exercise their rights “peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” You know, like it says in the First Amendment.

Homan is one of Trump’s top generals in his war against democracy and freedom. And his frequent appearances on Fox News are not coincidental. Fox is Trump’s official Ministry of Propaganda and Disinformation. And Chaffetz is a high ranking disseminator of Trump’s lies. Here’s a taste of just how nauseatingly adoring and biased he is with regard to his orange messiah…

It's true. Democrats don't love America the way Republicans and Fox News do.Democrats are sincere and patriotic. Not performative and greedy. We don't hug flags. And our leaders don't pretend to care about law and order while committing dozens of felonies and violating the Constitution.

Fox News is Hot on the Trail of the Presidential Health Story – Bill Clinton’s, Not Trump

Posted by on August 30, 2025 at 1:16 pm. 0 Comments :

The assortments of “firsts” achieved by Donald Trump is extraordinarily long, and littered mainly by affairs most often associated with shame and disgrace. For instance, he is the first president to be impeached twice; the first to have been convicted of felonies; the first to have been adjudicated as a rapist; the first to engage in the flagrant profiteering of the presidency. And that’s an abridged list.

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

Donald Trump, coronavirus

Another milestone achieved by Trump is that he is currently first among the most elderly American presidents. Now at 79, Trump is showing his age. He noticeably hobbles to and from his planes and limousines. And recent photos have shown him with severe bruises on his hands and badly swollen ankles. Both of which can be symptoms of more serious ailments. Yet he refuses to release detailed medical reports from his annual physicals. Although, he does frequently boast about his alleged mental acuity in a manner that is more revealing of cognitive dysfunction than clarity.

SEE THIS: YIKES! Trump Admits His Dreams of Dictatorship, While Bragging About ‘Acing’ a Dementia Test

Naturally, Fox News is vigorously pursuing the timely and relevant story of the health of an American president. Just like they did when Joe Biden had the job. Except for one little thing. The president whose health they are probing is Bill Clinton, who left office 27 years ago. According to Fox News…

“Former President Bill Clinton is facing questions about his health after he was spotted in the Hamptons with what appeared to be a portable defibrillator. Photographs show someone accompanying the 79-year-old Democrat and his wife, Hillary, carrying what appeared to be a medical device.”

Fox News notes that “In 2004, he underwent quadruple bypass surgery. [And that] Years later, in 2010, he had another heart surgery in which he received coronary stents.” And demonstrating their journalistic bona fides, Fox News Digital “contacted Katz’s Delicatessen to verify Clinton’s order.” Watch out Woodward and Bernstein!

While Fox News was nailing down this epic scoop, the phrase “#TrumpIsDead” was a trending topic on Twitter/X for several hours. Obviously that isn’t true, but the reactions have been entertaining. The left is fake-celebrating, with clear knowledge that it’s a joke. MAGA, on the other hand, is furiously debunking it as if it were a serious news story.

Meanwhile, Trump isn’t helping matters by declaring his hopes of going to Heaven. “I want to try to get to Heaven if possible,” Trump grumbled. “I’m hearing I’m not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole.” Why is he suddenly fretting about his fate in the afterlife? Does he know something?

Trump makes the ascension to Heaven sound like it’s a prize to be won on a reality TV game show, like the one that he used to host. What’s more, he wasn’t seen in public for five days, until Sunday when the White House allowed him to be photographed on his way to his golf resort in Virginia. And even in that staged photo-op he didn’t look particularly well, and wasn’t seen golfing.

And yet, 79 year old Bill Clinton, with a history of heart problems, is seen with an aide carrying a medical device, and the MAGA media goes apeshit? They never bother to explore the very real health concerns of their Dear Leader, that actually ought to trouble them. But if Clinton or Biden get a pimple it dominates the news cycle for three weeks.

If Trump were to actually shuffle off this mortal coil, Fox News would likely report it as bad cold. And Trump’s cult followers would insist that he was still alive and partying with JFK Jr. Or worse, they would accuse some innocent Democrat of assassinating him. They are, if nothing else, imaginative.

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.

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

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.

— Brad Johnson (@climatebrad.hillheat.com) 2025-08-26T15:37:58.748Z

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."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-08-26T17:18:44.037Z

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.'"

MAGA Rep Believes that Convicted Sex Trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell’s Interview Exonerates Trump

Posted by on August 24, 2025 at 1:28 pm. 1 Comments :

The coordinated effort by the Cult of Donald Trump to deflect attention away from his unsavory relationship with Jeffrey Epstein has not been been going very well. Part of the reason for that is that they keep bringing it up again themselves. They seem to have an undeniable compulsion to yammer on about it regardless of how badly it reflects on their Herr Trump.

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

Jim Jordan

In an interview on Fox News, Ultra-MAGA GOP representative, Jim Jordan, entertained the ongoing scandal with a perspective that is utterly despicable and riddled with lies. Although it is also a perspective that is common among the MAGA faithful who revere Trump and can’t imagine that he would ever do anything untoward. Including affiliating himself positively with the most salacious and despicable cretins.

SEE THIS: Newsmax Host is ‘Impressed’ By Trump for Standing by ‘Innocent’ Pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell

The Jordan interview was rife with the sort of adoration afforded to aspiring messiahs. He insisted that he knew that “Trump didn’t do anything wrong here […] based on what we got from the interview of Ms. Maxwell.” And what better witness testimony can you get than that of a convicted sex offender who is hoping to get a pardon? Jordan went on to hail what Ghislaine Maxwell told Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, in a staged interview last week…

“They didn’t release parts of the transcript. They released the whole transcript. You can go through the whole thing And of course, this confirms what we all knew. If the president had done something wrong, you don’t think the Democrats would have released that? It was their Justice Department that handled all this. You don’t think the [former Attorney General Merrick] Garland Justice Department, or the Chris Wray FBI, would have released everything?”

Jordan on Ghislaine Maxwell Transcript: This confirms what we all knew: President Trump didn’t do anything wrong. This transcript confirms that. There’s nothing there based on this interview with Maxwell.

— Acyn (@acyn.bsky.social) 2025-08-24T00:17:23.360Z

Well then, that settles it. Epstein’s partner in crime says that Trump is as innocent as a child, which may not be the best metaphor in this case. Never mind that this interview was with Trump’s personal attorney who is now a top Justice Department official, or that Maxwell has a motive to lie given her desperation for a pardon or commutation from Trump.

So naturally, Maxwell wasn’t going to say anything that might jeopardize her hopes for getting out of prison, even the cushy Club Fed that Trump already moved her into. Instead, she told Blanche that “I never witnessed the president in any inappropriate setting in any way.” Which raises the question: What does a convicted pervert consider inappropriate?

What’s more, if Maxwell were to incriminate Trump, she wold also be incriminating herself. If she admitted that she witnessed Trump engaging in any unlawful acts, she would also be admitting that she witnessed those acts. No one expected her to confess such things in the interview with Blanche.

Furthermore, Jordan’s claims that this all occurred during the Democratic administration is a flagrant lie. Epstein was arrested in July of 2019. Maxwell was arrested a year later. Both were during Trump’s first occupation of the White House. And Jordan is projecting the legal malfeasance of the Republican Party onto Democrats by suggesting that Democrats would have released confidential evidence, just because that’s what Republicans would do.

Jordan, however, is more than satisfied with Maxwell’s assertions that Trump is innocent. He is willing to believe the testimony of a known perjurer if it exonerates his Dear Leader. Or more likely, he knows that she’s lying, but her lies align with his political aims, so he endorses them. Which is to be expected from someone who himself has been credibly accused of allowing sexual abuse to go on while he was an Ohio State University wrestling coach.

It is also notable that Fox News didn’t challenge anything that Jordan said. Why would they? They previously made the very same endorsements of the claims in Maxwell’s interview…

No one who is really interested in the truth was expecting any to be revealed in these interview transcripts. They are waiting for all of the files held by the Justice Department to be released. Which the Trump regime is still refusing to do. In the meantime, that creates the opportunity for liars like Jordan, and Attorney Genuflect Pam Bondi, and FBI Deflecter Kash Patel, and Trump himself, to continue their deception.

Unfortunately for them, the truth will eventually come out, and they will be forced to manufacture new scandals to divert attention from it. And political weasels like Jordan will jump aboard and embrace the new lies with vigor. It’s what they do.

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

Posted by on August 21, 2025 at 2:28 pm. 0 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?

Trump’s ‘Weaponization Working Group’ Lives Down to Its Name with Threats to Persecute Democrats

Posted by on August 17, 2025 at 2:13 pm. 0 Comments :

The dissembling of the U.S. Department of Justice under Donald Trump is proceeding apace as his disgraced and unqualified appointees conspire to abuse their power in order to take out Trump’s perceived enemies and shield him from any and all negative consequences of his own blatant criminality.

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

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

To be sure, much of their primary focus of late is concentrated on deflecting from their refusal to release the files that they control related to child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. They already tasked 1,000 FBI agents to search for and redact Trump’s name from those files. But apparently, that still isn’t enough to satisfy Trump that his unsavory relationship with the pair of perverts is sufficiently hidden.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary, in a Rambling Defense, Fails to Say Trump is Not in the Epstein Files

In a chilling escalation of the DoJ’s descent into Trump’s personal prosecutorial staff, Trump’s director of the DoJ’s aptly/ironically named “Weaponization Working Group,” Ed Martin, was dispatched to their Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, to disseminate more of their flagrantly dishonest assaults on anyone who Trump has deemed disloyal. Martin – who was too much of a MAGA extremist to be confirmed as U.S. Attorney – was interviewed by Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, and he delivered the following forthright threats aimed at the opponents of Dear Leader…

“We’re gonna go to the bottom of the facts, and if somebody did something wrong, we’re not only gonna hold them accountable, we’re also gonna look at everything else that they’ve been doing.

“Because when you’re a liar, you lie not just on one thing. When you’re a cheater, you cheat not just on one thing. When you’re doing corruption, you generally don’t just do it on one thing. So that’s what we’re asked to do as prosecutors. And that’s what we’re doing.”

Ed Martin: "Letitia James & Adam Schiff — both their lawyers have come out and talked publicly about the criminal referrals…we're gonna follow the facts…and if somebody did something wrong, we're not only gonna hold them accountable, we're also gonna look at everything else they've been doing"

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-08-17T15:20:26.462Z

Martin is promising to expand the already meritless allegations against people like Letitia James and Adam Schiff, into investigations of “everything else” that he can twist into bogus accusations. In other words, witch hunts. Although his justification citing the tendencies of liars, and cheaters, and those who are corrupt, really fits Trump much better than any of those who Martin is targeting. But he was just getting started. The discussion continued with the following exchange…

Bartiromo: What about the January 6 committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?
Martin: Of course. Trust me, a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox, because there’s a lot to be asked about.
Bartiromo: And the pardons that were given out were done by an autopen. Are they legitimate?
Martin: I’m a pardon attorney, so I’m in that too. I can tell you we’re investigating how the pardons were granted. It was not like anything in the history of America. What Joe Biden – not Joe Biden – what his staffers did not just with the autopen, but with faking him out on the memos. More to come, Maria. I’m telling you, Pam Bondi has let us loose, and when this comes out it will take the whole of these people’s hoaxes down. And we’re doing it bit by bit, and it’s fantastic.”

BARTIROMO: What about the January 6 committee? Did they destroy evidence? Is there criminality there?ED MARTIN: Of course. Trust me, a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the select committee, and they ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox.

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-08-17T15:25:46.591Z

First of all, there was no evidence destroyed by the January 6th Committee, and thus no criminality. And Martin’s reference to those who did not receive pardons as being vulnerable to prosecution is the sort of intimidation tactic employed by dictators like Vladimir Putin, who Trump idolizes and seeks to emulate.

Bartiromo then brings up the preposterous question of the legitimacy of Biden’s pardons. Of course, Martin embraces that nonsense and builds on it with his own allegations about some mysterious memos. Then he is downright giddy with glee over being “let loose” by Attorney Genuflect Pam Bondi, and how “fantastic” it will be to take down these alleged hoaxes.

President Biden’s wisdom in issuing pardons for the January 6th Committee members is proven to be warranted by the partisan and abusive actions that Martin is taking now. And it is notable that neither Martin nor Bartiromo bother to mention the pardons issued by Trump for more than 1,500 violent insurrections, including those who assaulted police officers, that were also signed by an autopen.

The hypocrisy exhibited by these agents of authoritarianism is waist deep, at least. And their zeal to act on it by persecuting patriots who sought to preserve American democracy is despicable. Unfortunately, it is also expected of the goon squads that work for Trump. and the sooner we 8647, the better. [FYI: for all you soggy-brained numbskulls, 86 means to throw out]

Jasmine Crockett Tells the Truth About Trump, So He is Attacking Her and Other Women of Color

Posted by on August 11, 2025 at 1:58 pm. 2 Comments :

Nothing triggers a cantankerous Donald Trump temper tantrum like somebody daring to deliver a well documented and deserved criticism of Dear Leader’s multitude of failures. There’s a lot of material to work with there, and many have taken the opportunity to knock Trump down a peg or twelve.

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

Jasmine Crockett on Fox News

The fragility of Trump’s massively inflated ego makes it an easy target. And he doesn’t help himself by constantly providing ammunition for his critics with comments and behavior that reek of ignorance and incoherence. He is bottomless pit of humiliating and infantile impudence.

SEE THIS: OK, So Trump is a Felon, Liar, Racist, Adulterer, and Grifter. He’s Also Just So Damn Embarrassing

Trump is especially vulnerable to criticism from women, who he regards as objects for him to abuse, demean, and dominate. He has bragged that his celebrity allows him to “grab them by the pussy.” Which is behavior that he has acted upon, resulting in a civil lawsuit that cost him almost $90 million.

Politically, Trump frequently narrows his disrespect for women to specifically Black women. And on Monday morning he offered an example of his animus toward women of color who fail to subjugate themselves to him. While in the midst of his morning routine of watching Fox News, he saw Rep. Jasmine Crockett being smeared by the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends. That segment aired at about 6:45, and by 7:30 Trump was lashing out on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He posted a comment dripping with hatred and fear that said…

“‘Congresswoman’ Jasmine Crockett is a Low (Very!!!) I.Q. Individual, much in the mold of the AOC Plus Three Gang of Country Destroying Morons – Only slightly dumber. Each of these political hacks should be forced to take a Cognitive Exam, much like the one I recently took while getting my ‘physical’ at our GREAT Washington, D.C., Military Hospital (WR!). As the doctors said, ‘President Trump ACED it, something that is rarely seen!’ These Radical Left Lunatics would all fail this test in a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence. TAKE THE TEST!!!”

Trump was up early watching Fox News (of course). So he rage-posted a typically racist (and deranged) response to a segment on Fox and Friends that bashed Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-11T18:45:31.367Z

Trump’s insult of Crockett’s intelligence is nothing new. It is a regular line pulled from his tiny collection of rhetorical rants. He uses it mostly against women of color, including Kamala, Harris, Maxine Waters, and what he refers to as “AOC Plus Three.” By which he means representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib. All women of color. Although, to be fair, Trump has occasionally used the same epithet on Black men, For instance…

SEE ALSO: Trump Calls Charlamagne Tha God a ‘Low IQ’ ‘Racist Sleazebag’ During Lara Trump’s Fox News Show

Furthermore, Trump is also rehashing his preposterous claims of intellectual prowess proven by his having taken a simple cognitive test that is intended only to detect early signs of dementia, and is not a measure of intelligence. Nevertheless, he proposes that his foes “should be forced” to take the test that presents such challenges as identifying a picture of a camel, and drawing a clock. Trump is exceedingly proud of having “aced” that test and claims that doing so “is rarely seen.” Those comments alone would earn him a failing grade on the very same test.

What Trump is riled up about is the fact that Crockett, a lawyer and legal scholar, is actually a far more intelligent person than he is, and deep down inside he knows it. What’s more, she has the audacity to call out his lies with the evidence to back up her assertions, and the talent to rip apart egomaniacal snowflakes like Trump. Take for instance her recent comments at a rally supporting the Texas Democrats who are obstructing the state’s efforts to rig the next election…

“We have a Temu Hitler in the White House right now that thinks that he is going to become the dictator of the United States. Well, I’ve got another thing to tell you.”

Jasmine Crockett- "There's a Temu Hitler in the White House." ???

Posted by on August 9, 2025 at 12:45 pm. 0 Comments :

It will not come as a surprise to most conscious consumers of the news that Donald Trump is an unrepentant pathological liar. His history of propagating flagrant falsehoods in order to advance his own personal interests is impossible to dismiss. Unless, of course, you are an indoctrinated member of the Cult of Trump and blindly believe whatever he says.

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

Following Trump’s first occupation of the White House, the Washington Post (pre-Bezos) published an opus of his obfuscations that totaled more than 30,000 lies in four years. And he has done a pretty darn good job of expanding that collection in the six short months of his re-occupation. In fact, he has broadened his repertoire from common lies to abject insanity.

In keeping with Trump’s affinity for falsehoods, his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, has adopted a unique method of spreading around the manure of his mendacious mind. The social media sham is pretending to host an Artificial Intelligence tool that is just as deceitful as its boss. As reported by Wired…

“Truth Social owner Trump Media & Technology Group launched the chatbot, called ‘Truth Search AI,’ on Wednesday. The bot is powered by Perplexity AI […]

“In 2024, WIRED published an article detailing how Perplexity had been scraping parts of websites that developers did not want it to access, in violation of the widely accepted web standard known as the Robots Exclusion Protocol. It was also prone to making stuff up, a WIRED analysis showed.”

In other words, it was the perfect model for Trump’s version of AI. Wired conducted tests that revealed just how narrowly defined the Truth Social AI is. Answering a question about “bias in the media system” it advised to “Diversify your sources.” But then cited the five sources for that response, “four of which are Fox News articles.” That constitutes diversity in Trump World, Additionally, Wired found that…

“[T]he chatbot highlighted only seven sources in total in response to my queries—Fox News, Fox Business, The Washington Times, The Epoch Times, Breitbart, Newsmax, and JustTheNews.com. This was true even for innocuous, nonpolitical questions. When I ask the bot ‘What is 30 times 30?'”

So that’s where Trump gets his mathematical data to support his ludicrous claims that he has cut drug prices by 1,500%. A Perplexity representative explained that their clients can filter the domains that they want the ChatBot to use. Apparently Truth Social has taken advantage of that feature and excluded everything except the rabidly partisan sources noted above. The only moderately accurate responses came from Associated Press content that Fox News republished on their own site.

In a particularly jarring example from Wired’s analysis, the Truth Social ChatBot failed to correctly describe Trump’s long and well documented relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. According to Wired, the Bot “describes the connection as ‘tenuous,’ and says there is ‘no credible evidence in the search results'” Yeah, right. And Trump freed the slaves while leading the Union Army to victory over the Confederacy.

UPDATE: The Washington Post also tested the Truth Social AI and found that it would sometimes produce accurate answers that contradicted some of Trump’s most blatant lies. For instance…

“Truth Search AI contradicts the president by saying that tariffs are a tax on Americans, the 2020 election wasn’t stolen, and his family’s cryptocurrency investments pose a potential conflict of interest. Asked about Jan. 6, 2021, it said the ‘insurrection’ at the U.S. Capitol was violent and linked to Trump’s ‘baseless claims of widespread election fraud.’ […] When asked if crime in Washington is ‘totally out of control,’ as Trump posted there last week, Truth Search AI said it wasn’t and noted that the FBI and Justice Department had reported ‘substantial declines in violent crime’ through 2024.”

At least now we know the degree of “truth” that we can expect from Truth Social. Not that any further evidence of its dishonesty was needed. But this is the sort of documentary proof of their unambiguous intention to deceive. It’s not accidental. And anyone who uses the site for information is just asking to be lied to. So the MAGA minions will love it.

UH-OH! Fox News Op-Ed Tells the Truth About Trump’s Awful Economy and Broken Promises (AKA Lies)

Posted by on August 8, 2025 at 2:52 pm. 1 Comments :

For the past six months much of the mainstream media has demonstrated an extraordinary capacity for indifference to the glaring severity of Donald Trump’s cognitive deficiencies. While he embarks on daily excursions into rambling incoherence, spine-chilling ignorance, and unabashed lies, the press has largely failed to adequately report the measure of his mental decline.

Donald Trump baby with Fox News logo

As a result, we see Trump repeatedly bragging that he has cut drug prices by 1,500% (which is mathematically impossible), that his taxes/tariffs have brought in hundreds of billions of dollars (that are paid by American consumers), that he has personally ended half a dozen wars (in his cartoon brain), and weighing in on the most important issues of the day, such as Stephen Colbert being canceled and Sydney Sweeney’s jeans…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Cognitive Weakness is on Display in a Psycho Sydney Sweeney Rant that Goes Way Off Track

All of this makes it somewhat surprise that a less than flattering editorial was published by Fox News Friday morning. The article featured the headline: “Trump Breaks ‘Day One’ Promise to Lower Costs as Prices Surge Across America in First Six Months” While that isn’t exactly breaking news to anyone who has been paying attention, it is outside of the political lanes that Fox News generally straddles. The article began…

“The defining promise of Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign was lower costs on ‘Day One.’ He broke it. The first six months of this administration have been marked by ever-higher prices. […]

“The campaign trail promises sounded too good to be true, because they were. Trump committed to ‘end’ inflation, cut energy costs ‘in half,’ make health care more affordable, and that Americans would see ‘drastic price reductions’ and cheaper groceries.”

None of those promises were fulfilled. Although Trump claimed credit for succeeding on all counts, without ever providing a shred of evidence to support his claims. In fact, when data was revealed that proved how badly he has performed, he fired the those responsible for providing the data, and ordered a his regime to take over the data gathering agencies and reshape them to his liking.

It’s notable that this Fox News editorial, authored jointly by a former Bush aide and a former Biden aide, appeared only on the Fox website. It has not been reported on their cable network. To the contrary, the network’s reliably Trump-fluffing sycophants have obediently spewed the dishonest propaganda prepared for them by the White House. Nevertheless, expect Trump to freak out and call Fox “fake news.”

For his part, Trump was hard at work at his usual post – dropping ludicrous comments on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. in an excerpt from a tediously long tirade about tariffs and court rulings, he raged that…

“If a Radical Left Court ruled against us at this late date, in an attempt to bring down or disturb the largest amount of money, wealth creation and influence the U.S.A. has ever seen, it would be impossible to ever recover, or pay back, these massive sums of money and honor. It would be 1929 all over again, a GREAT DEPRESSION!”

To reiterate, the “massive sums of money” that he’s ranting about are paid by American consumers. And his efforts to instill fear of a 1929 style “GREAT DEPRESSION” are the typical tactics of aspiring authoritarians to frighten the masses into submission. In reality, the tariffs are inflationary and need to be withdrawn. And the courts are merely being asked to uphold the Constitution that stipulates that only Congress can impose tariffs.

It would be helpful if Fox News would expose their viewers to the facts revealed in the editorial. But don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen. More broadly, it would be helpful for the media to report on Trump’s mental health, or lack thereof. They seemed obsessed with covering President Biden’s age-related imperfections, but they are brazenly ignoring the far worse maladies of Trump whose madness is undeniable, and who is currently in a position to do much greater harm.

WTF are they waiting for? Trump to start a nuclear war? Because he has already talked about it. And in the meantime, he’s conspiring to amass tyrannical power, incarcerate opponents, take over city and state governments, rig elections, and shut down the free press. The threat is real and is bearing down upon us now. There is literally no time to waste.

Trump’s Intel Boss Can’t Cite Any Evidence Tying Obama to Her Phony ‘Russia Hoax’ on Fox News

Posted by on August 6, 2025 at 1:52 pm. 0 Comments :

The past few weeks have seen Donald Trump and his Garrulous Gaslight Gang scampering frantically to shift America’s attention from his abhorrent and aberrant relationship with child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, to anything else. They have thrown everything including the kitchen sink into this mission of mercenary misinformation and malice.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

The panic sweat is dripping from the brows of the Trump flunkies as they try to peddle their all too obvious distractions. They run the gamut from trivialities like the wholly concocted controversies about the jeans of Sydney Sweeney, to the inflation inducing Trump taxes (aka tariffs), to more disturbing and utterly bogus allegations of treason by President Obama and others.

SEE THIS: Trump’s DNI and Fox News Manufacture a New Crackpot Conspiracy Theory Accusing Obama of Treason

What the Trump regime operatives are calling the “Russia Hoax” has taken center stage, as they flock to Fox News every day to spread their blatant nonsense. And leading the charge is Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, and bona fide Russian asset, Tulsi Gabbard. On Tuesday night Gabbard visited with Fox News Trump-fluffer, Laura Ingraham, who asked a surprisingly relevant question. But predictably, she didn’t get anything resembling a coherent answer…

Ingraham: You said there was irrefutable evidence that Obama was the mastermind of this intelligence manipulation and the perpetuation of the Russia Hoax. What is that irrefutable evidence for our viewers tonight?
Gabbard: Laura, you know, as you were playing those clips of these people like Morning Joe [Scarborough] seemingly befuddled, saying that by no account is any of this true. I would challenge them to see if they’ve actually read the documents, every single page of the documents that we’ve released over the last couple of weeks.

Whereupon, Gabbard invited the Fox News viewers to read a bunch of garbage that she posted online. As if they would – or can – read. But she didn’t bother to provide any of the allegedly “irrefutable evidence” that Ingraham asked for. All of the information that she has presented previously – online or on the air – has been entirely devoid of any factual basis.

Nevertheless, Gabbard went on to tell Ingraham that the online docs would reveal “how President Obama directed that a National Security Council meeting be called to talk about Russia.” She claimed that Obama tasked his Intel staff to alter the substance of their reporting on Russia’s well documented interference in the 2016 presidential election. Then she continued, brazenly lying that…

“Per the president’s direction, per the president’s order, and very specifically, they were tasked to create an intelligence assessment that detailed how Moscow tried to influence the election – not if, but how. And this was the beginning of this manufactured intelligence assessment where they knowingly wrote things in this assessment that were false.”

To reiterate, Gabbard has still not fulfilled Ingraham’s request for some actual evidence. But now she is asserting, without any proof, that Obama and his staff altered and released falsified data. Not only was the data not false, it was corroborated by the Senate Intelligence Committee five years ago when it was chaired by Republicans, including Trump’s current Secretary of State, Marco Rubio. The bipartisan Committee report said that…

“…the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. […] Moscow’s intent was to harm the Clinton Campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump Campaign after Trump became the presumptive Republican nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process.”

Even Gabbard’s own comments suggest that the Obama did nothing wrong. She notes that Obama asked that the reports include how “Moscow tried to influence the election – not if, but how.” She’s implying that there is something untoward about that. But it’s only because the “if” was not in doubt. Russia definitely tried to influence the election. Obama wanted to make sure that their methods (the “how”) were also included in the report. That’s real honesty and transparency.

For his part, Trump helped to keep all of this in the news with a new comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In what appears to be his transcript of what Gabbard said on Fox News, Trump wrote that…

“Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard: ‘Obama directed that a National Security Council meeting be called… They were tasked to create an Intelligence Assessment that detailed how Moscow tried to influence the election—not ‘if’—but ‘how’… They knowingly wrote things in this assessment that were false.'”

If nothing else, we have additional confirmation that Trump spends an inordinate amount of his time watching his minions talk about him on Fox News. However, the truly troubling aspects of this go much deeper. Just in the past week we have seen the weaponizing of the law by Trump’s Justice Department and his MAGA contingent in Congress.

Trump’s Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi has launched “a grand jury investigation of whether Obama administration officials committed federal crimes when they assessed Russia’s actions during the 2016 election.” And GOP Oversight Committee chair, James Comer, has issued subpoenas for depositions from Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Robert Mueller, William Barr, Jeff Sessions and Alberto Gonzales.

So Bondi and Comer are joining Gabbard in the quest for evidence-free persecution of Democrats and other critics of Dear Leader Trump. None of them actually present any of their imaginary evidence. But they bellow about it publicly in an attempt to get their cult followers and the media to pay attention to their fabrications. And of course, to draw attention away from Epstein and Maxwell and Trump.

The good news is that it isn’t working. The American people – including many Trump supporters – still want the truth to be revealed. They aren’t buying the misdirection tactics. And the pathetic and desperate determination of the Trumpists just makes them look all the more ridiculous.
