Trump Accuses Chuck Schumer of Being ‘Almost Treasonous’ Just for Criticizing Dear Leader

Posted by on October 30, 2025 at 1:18 pm. 0 Comments :

Two weeks ago seven million American patriots hit the streets of big cities, small towns, and everything in between, to express their opposition to the totalitarian tactics of wannabe dictator Donald Trump. It was dubbed the “No Kings” movement to focus attention on the autocratic aspirations of Trump and his glassy-eyed cult followers.

Donald Trump, Snowflakes

Prior to and following that massive outpouring of opposition to Trump’s nefarious ambition, Trump and his MAGA confederates sought to belittle and dismiss the demonstrations that drew more protesters than any other such demonstration in history. They even sought to portray the protesters as lunatics, paid provocateurs, and terrorists. No, really…

In the days following the “No Kings” events, Trump has done little to disabuse anyone of the warnings of the emerging dictatorship that Trump portends. To the contrary, he is actually exacerbating the cause for alarm. And on Thursday morning he posted a comment on his failing Twitter rip off, Truth Social, that justifies the concerns of the people who abhor his monarchal maneuvers. Trump raged that…

“Worked really hard, 24/7, took in Trillions of Dollars, and Chuck Schumer said trip was ‘a total dud,’ even though he knows it was a spectacular success. Words like that are almost treasonous!!!”v

There is a steaming pile of putrid prevarication in that tortured tirade. First of all, Trump never works “really hard.” He is perhaps the laziest occupant of the White House ever. He spends most of his time golfing, watching Fox News, and posting inane comments online. What’s more, he certainly didn’t work 24 hours a day for seven days while in Asia. In fact, the junket only lasted for five days. But in his defense, every day he is in office feels like a week. Nor did he take in “trillions of dollars.” If he did, then where is it? It’s not in the U.S. treasury. There is no record of its receipt. Did he get it in crypto and deposit it in his private account?

However, Trump was right about one thing. Sen. Chuck Schumer did say that Trump’s trip was “a total dud.” But he said it in the middle of a fifteen minute address on the Senate floor where he castigated Trump for his incompetence and dishonesty. The odds that Trump actually listened to the whole speech are less than zero. So somebody on his staff likely told him about the “dud” remark and nothing else.

Therefore, Trump likely didn’t hear that Schumer also said that “As we enter the 29th day of the government shutdown, where is Donald Trump? He is gallivanting in Asia, dancing in Malaysia.” Schumer also noted that Trump would “strike a trade deal that will sell out the American people,” and “give away vital national security tools, in exchange for little more than a photo op,” and that “This is Trump’s M.O. in foreign policy. He creates a giant mess. Then he wants everyone to praise him when he tries to clean it up and ignore the damage that he has inflicted.” And then came the part that triggered Trump…

“Trump’s trip to the Asian continent could have been a real opportunity to make progress with America’s vital trading partners. He could have used this trip to end his reckless trade war, to stop alienating our allies, to show strength and unite our allies against the Chinese Communist Party, and, most importantly, to help Americans struggling with high costs here at home. But so far, his trip has been a total dud.“

Many Democrats have been critical of Schumer lately, believing that he has not been aggressive enough at countering the threat that Trump represents to democracy and America. Whatever the validity of that criticism, Schumer gave a bold and forthright condemnation of Trump on this particular occasion. And Trump showed that, once again, he is a tender and fragile snowflake who can’t handle honest appraisals of his failures and flaws.

Consequently, Trump responds by lashing out with preposterously vile and childish insults and accusations of treason. But Trump’s inbred hatred has driven him to cast aspersions of treason on many of his political foes, including: President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, James Comey, Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, and pretty much all of the media.

Trump also wanted all of the members of the House January.6th committee tried for treason. That’s the Committee that was investigating the actual treason committed by Trump’s cult, and whom Trump pardoned despite their having ransacked the Capitol and sent 140 police officers to the hospital in an effort to undermine democracy.

For good – or more accurately, bad – measure, Trump also posted a comment baselessly attacking President Joe Biden for unspecified crimes, and also calling for him to be incarcerated. And of course, the comment sunk to the level of a petulant seven year old whose only motivation was vengeance…

Whiny baby Trump can't get over having lost to President Biden. So, like the wannabe dictator that he is, he makes infantile insults (ugly?) and has orgasmic thrills from delusions that Biden is "squirming."Even worse, Trump keeps calling for Biden' arrest, despite no evidence of any crime.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-30T16:02:27.588Z

These comments are not going to do much to persuade anyone that Trump doesn’t aspire to reign as an unchallenged tyrant in the mold of heroes and mentors, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. And Sen. Schumer touched on that as well in his speech, saying that…

“American families are facing enough problems right now, with the nightmare of open enrollment, the pain of higher groceries, the prices of everything from cars to home appliances to electricity skyrocketing. The last thing they want is to turn on the TV and see Trump being gifted a golden crown and then signing a deal with China that royally screws over Americans.”

More of this, please. Every Democrat- in fact, every patriot – needs to echo and expand on these remarks. And we need to do it until every trace of Trumpism is gone. That’s the only way that we can actually make America great again.

WHUT? Trump’s Treasury Secretary Says a $40 Billion Bailout of Argentina is…’America First’?

Posted by on October 26, 2025 at 1:08 pm. 0 Comments :

From the beginning of his political career, Donald Trump has been chanting the slogan “America First!” that he lifted from an early 1900s movement that was associated with anti-Semitism, fascism, and a campaign to prevent the United States from getting involved in World War II and the fight against Hitler and the Nazis.

Donald Trump

Trump’s adoption (aka theft) of the phrase was, therefore, consistent with its historical context. And he used it for much the same purpose. Which was to rile up bigoted nationalists and to foment hatred for anyone not belonging to the white, Christian majority in the U.S. It was less a call for national pride than an alarm warning of foreign usurpers. No less a conservative icon than former Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell sounded that alarm…

SEE THIS: Antifa Mitch McConnell Warns that Trump 2.0 and ‘America First’ are Like the Third Reich

On Sunday morning Trump’s Treason …er… Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, sought to add a new wrinkle to the definition of what“America First” means. During an interview on NBC with Kirsten Welker, Bessent was asked about Trump’s recent $40 billion gift to his pal Javier Milei, the current totalitarian leader of Argentina…

Welker: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, I’ll read a little bit of what she wrote. She says “Americans are getting decimated with high cost of living and skyrocketing insurance costs. Many of them have zero savings and some are maxing out credit cards to survive. Tell me how it’s America First to bailout a foreign country with $20 or even $40 BILLION taxpayer dollars.” How is this move America First, Mr. Secretary?
Bessent: Well, Kristen, it is America First because we are supporting a U.S. ally…and we want to set the tone in Latin America. Because look at what’s going on in Venezuela.

Scott Bessent on the $20 billion bailout of Argentina: "It is America First because we are supporting a U.S. ally."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-10-26T16:24:45.058Z

That’s a remarkably long stretch for Bessent to call a $40 billion bailout for the economic basket case, Argentina, an “America First” expenditure. There is no evident benefit for America, other than for the wealthy Americans, including Bessent, who have investments in the country. Even giving Bessent the benefit of a doubt, it would mean that similar bailouts for many other countries in Latin America would also be warranted. But Trump isn’t proposing any of that.

What’s more, there really are foreign interests whose welfare is actually critical to the national security of the United States. At the top of that list would be Ukraine, who is fighting for both their own sovereignty and the independence of every other European nation and NATO ally in the region. But Trump doesn’t seem to care about any of them.

Trump’s actual policies are anything but “America First.” His tariffs are burdensome taxes on the American people. His threats of aggression against everyone from Canada, to Greenland, to Panama, to Venezuela, are hardly beneficial to the U.S. His efforts to undermine healthcare will leave millions of Americans uninsured and at risk for serious illness or death. His cuts to federal programs that help America’s middle and lower income families are already causing great pain. His domestic military invasions of U.S. cities put fear into the hearts of migrants and citizens alike. And his suppression of the media that he calls “the enemy of the people” puts dangerous propaganda first.

How is any of that “America First”? How is it anything but Trump first? And how does it dispel the talk of his having authoritarian aspirations that only put him and his wealthy comrades first? Short answer: It doesn’t. Nor does it help Trump and his cronies who get so upset when people call them fascists. What else would you call them? Their own slogan hails from the same anti-American philosophy.

PROPAGANDA WORKS! Fox News and Other MAGA Media Deliver Disciples for Dear Leader Trump (Poll)

Posted by on October 22, 2025 at 2:50 pm. 0 Comments :

The United States as led by His MAGA-sty, Donald Trump, is suffering one of its most serious challenges since the Civil War. In many respects the current crisis embodies some of the same threats that tore the nation apart in that deadly and divisive conflagration. The Trump driven turmoil that America is undergoing today is ripping apart families over political and moral differences, and interpretations of law and principle.

Donald Trump, Fox News, Lies

Trump and his Republican Party have taken the lead in disparaging Democrats and even Republicans who fail to be sufficiently worshipful of Trump. And it is not merely the divergence of opinion that is common in a healthy democracy. The MAGA-tists have embarked on a crusade that mirrors the hostilities that resulted in the Battle of the States almost 200 years ago. Their invectives and lies are off the charts crazy.

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

A new poll by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) sheds additional light on the severity and the causes of the division in American political life. And, not surprisingly, much of the responsibility lies with the media. The poll found that…

“Americans who most trust far-right news, including Newsmax and One America News, for accurate political information show the highest level of approval of Trump’s job as president (92%), followed by 86% who most trust Fox News. Smaller majorities of Americans who most trust the radio (67%) and who do not trust any media source also approve (61%). Far fewer Americans who most trust YouTube or podcasts (46%), social media (42%), mainstream TV news (25%), and newspapers (19%) approve of the job Trump is doing as president.”

In short, viewers of Fox News, OAN, Newsmax, and other MAGA media, are by far the most likely to believe the flagrant lies that prop up Trump’s public image. Those viewers are the glassy-eyed cult followers who regard Trump as a pseudo-deity who can do no wrong. And the reason they buy into that nonsense is that it is all that they are exposed to from the pro-Trump propaganda sources that they hungrily consume.

The poll delved deeply into a broad array of other political subjects and where Trump fit in. Or more pointedly, failed to fit in. For instance…

  • A majority of Americans agree “President Trump is a dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy” (56%).
  • A majority of Americans (56%) disapprove of the job Donald Trump is doing as president, compared with 42% who approve.
  • Americans who most trust far-right news show the highest level of approval of Trump’s job handling the Epstein files at 70%, followed by 68% who most trust Fox News.
  • Six in ten Americans (62%) believe things in the country are going in the wrong direction, including most Democrats (92%) and independents (71%), compared with 24% of Republicans.
  • Majorities say that the cuts in federal funding of health care programs (60%)…have gone too far.
  • Republicans (22%) are more likely than independents (16%) and Democrats (12%) to agree that political violence may be necessary to save the country.
  • Most Americans agree that “What President Trump is doing to the federal government is an assault on constitutional checks and balances and the rule of law” (54%).

While it is comforting to see that most of the American people reject Trump and his aspirational authoritarian agenda, it is troubling that there are still a fair number of weak willed citizens who are so easily misled. And the fact that they are swayed by the deliberately dishonest right-wing media is a disconcerting affirmation of the power of propaganda.

If the American experiment is to endure, there must be a solution to the harm posed by media that is purposefully lying on behalf of special interests, both political and financial. That solution must be careful not to step on the right of free speech. And while the right to speak may be practiced freely, it is not necessarily free of rebuttal or consequences if it deliberately causes harm.

Part of the solution was demonstrated in the $787 million settlement that Fox News had to pay to Dominion Voting Systems for defamation. There needs to be more of that. And it needs to hold individuals like Trump accountable as well. Because the more that liars in politics and media are held to a higher standard, the fewer opportunities evildoers will have to create the chaos that empowers the perpetrators of propaganda.

The MAGA Response to Trump’s ‘Poop on America’ Video is Worse than the Disgusting Video Itself

Posted by on October 20, 2025 at 4:08 pm. 0 Comments :

On Saturday, October 18, 2025, seven million American patriots took to the streets of more than 2,700 cities and towns across the nation to proclaim their love for their country and the democratic principles upon which it was founded. The “No Kings” rallies were a historic demonstration of the power of the people to smack down aspiring autocrats like Donald Trump.

Donald Trump

For his part, Trump was only able to muster a typically infantile and deranged response that effectively validated the reasons that so many people were out protesting him in the first place. The AI video that he posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, proved that his ego is his greatest motivator, and that his craving for absolute power fully justified the massive public outcry against the madness of wannabe kings. It’s a video that accurately expresses just how much he hates the American people. If you have a strong stomach, you can…

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

Trump’s gross out video ought to have produced some measure of shame among his supporters and followers. However, we are living in times when the moral character of what’s left of the GOP that would have elicited shame has been discarded and replaced by a sort of perverse pride. Consequently, Trump’s MAGA-tists have actually sought to defend his vile vulgarity. Beginning with the Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, who had the following exchange with reporters…

Question: You say that the Democrats had a ‘Hate America Rally,’ but what does it say that the president of the United States over the weekend released a video of him pooping on the American people?
Johnson: The president uses social media to make a point. You can argue he’s probably the most effective person whose ever used social media for that. He is using satire to make a point. He is not calling for the murder of his political opponents. And that’s what these people are doing.

MAGA Mike Johnson won't condemn a video that Trump posted of him literally sh*tting on the American people. That's how big a kissass he is.What exactly does he think is the point Trump was making? How was it satire? It was just plain disgusting. And, sadly, typical of Trump.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-20T17:54:26.883Z

Not only did Johnson refuse to condemn the video, he praised Trump’s ability to nauseate people with social media. You have to be pretty deeply indoctrinated into the cult to find anything positive about Trump’s sick posting. There is nothing funny about bombing peaceful Americans with feces, just because they were exercising their constitutional rights. But Johnson was jsut getting started. We went on…

Johnson: Look, America is built on the idea of free speech you have the right to protest, of course, we jealously guard that. Chip [Roy] and I are attorneys. We defended that right in the courts. But what they’re doing right now is different. They’re trying to incite violence. That’s not funny. You don’t mock a president who has already had two failed assassination attempts on his life. This is not a game.

It’s impressive how Johnson can brag about his alleged support for free speech, as long as it isn’t used to mock Dear Leader Trump. That’s the same sort of conditional freedom that the Trumpists used get Jimmy Kimmel off the air, albeit briefly after they suffered a tidal wave of backlash.

SEE THIS: LOLOL: Jimmy Kimmel Crushes Trump in Poll Despite Having No Talent or Ratings (According to Trump)

Naturally, Trump weighed in himself on the No Kings rallies. And his remarks affirmed what everyone who has been paying attention already knows. Which is that Trump is the unchallenged, heavyweight champion, “HATE AMERICA” president! When asked about the No Kings rallies, he whined…

Trump: I think it’s a joke. I looked at the people. They are not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs I guess paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics. It’s looks like it was. We’re checking it out. The demonstrations were very small, very ineffective. And the people were whacked out.

Trump, who just posted a video of himself literally shitting on the American people, is saying that the #NoKings demonstrations that drew 7 million patriots "were very small, very ineffective. And the people were whacked out."He is the "HATE AMERICA" president!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-20T10:18:46.986Z

Of course! The rallies were very small. They only drew enough participants to rank as the biggest national protest event in American history. And those seven million people weren’t representative of the country because some of them had “brand new signs” that he said – without proof – were paid for by philanthropist and democracy advocate, George Soros. Which is obviously improper and evidence of something awful. Not to worry though. Trump is “checking it out,” and will surely get to the bottom of it in two weeks or so.

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.

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%]”

MORE HERE: Trump Unites America – In Opposition to His Shutdown and His Skyrocketing Healthcare Costs

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?

Lara Trump Attacks the No Kings Movement By Quoting a Fake Trump Truth Social Post on Fox News

Posted by on October 18, 2025 at 12:36 pm. 0 Comments :

As millions of Americans hit the streets for the “No Kings” protest against Donald Trump and his authoritarian aspirations, the Trump regime’s propaganda mouthpieces are taking to the MAGA media to viciously malign these patriotic protesters.

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

Fox News, Lara Trump, My View

The seething hostility of the pro-kings Republican Party has devolved entirely into a blatantly anti-American faction of fascists and frothing followers of the festering Trump cult. Their attempts at disparaging the democracy loving protesters has sunk to noxious lows wherein they repeatedly slander the No Kings events as “hate rallies” and baselessly accuse the peaceful participants of being terrorist sympathizers and criminals.

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

Naturally, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is contributing to the contemptuous caterwauling. Everyone from Sean Hannity to Jesse Watters to Laura Ingraham to the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends, are lashing out with snarling invectives. And among them is Fox News host, and Trump’s own daughter-in-lawlessness, Lara Trump, who told her pals at Fox and Friends that…

“It should surprise absolutely nobody that the same group who doesn’t understand the meaning of fascism and also can’t define what a woman is, doesn’t understand what a king is…It feels like so many of these people don’t know what to do with themselves….So I guess their response is to get out in the streets and protest it. The best response I’ve seen thus far came from president Trump himself.”

Whereupon Lara read what she said were Daddy Trump’s own words responding to the first No Kings rally last June. Reading from her notes, Lara recited the following…

“A HUGE THANK YOU to all the ‘No Kings’ protesters yesterday! I was very concerned a king was trying to take my place, but thanks to your tireless efforts, I am STILL YOUR PRESIDENT! Great job all!!!”

There’s just one little problem with that. Trump never posted that comment or said those words. It was a fake meme that circulated on Twitter after the June No Kings rallies that drew over five million people. But Lara is so stupid that she doesn’t know the real quotes of her pappy-in-law from the phonies.

However, Lara isn’t alone. Last June after the first No Kings rallies, Fox News Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, made the same mistake. During an interview with GOP Rep. Dan Crenshaw, Bartiromo quoted the same fake Trump post as if were real. Maybe that’s where Lara got it from. After all, that’s where Donald gets all of his fake news from. And they all better start to pay attention to these No Kings events. Because they are drawing historic crowds, and…

“Political science research has quantified that when a mere 3.5 percent of a nation’s population mobilizes in peaceful protest, it becomes nearly impossible for the government to ignore the people’s demands.”

[UPDATE: According to an Economist/YouGov poll, (Oct 24-27), the No Kings protests drew 8%!]

On a lighter note, the Daily Show put together a montage of MAGA minions, including Donald Trump, expressing their disgust at anyone who would insult the American people as viciously as Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, did recently. Just because they were exercising their free speech rights under the Constitution’s First Amendment.

Wow, Republicans are outraged at Karoline Leavitt calling half the country d?e?p?l?o?r?a?b?l?e?s? terrorists

Crybaby Trump Whines – aka Lies – that His Judicial and Legal Nominees Aren’t Being Confirmed

Posted by on October 17, 2025 at 1:59 pm. 0 Comments :

The Complainer-in-Chief, Donald Trump, is at it again. Never mind that the United States government is in the midst of another Trump Shutdown. Or that Trump’s inflationary tariffs continue to raise the cost of living for the American people. Or that Trump’s ICE thugs are invading cities and harassing citizens across the country. Or that Trump’s “Justice” Department is persecuting his political foes and the press. Trump is too busy bellyaching about his own perceived victimhood to worry about any of that.

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

Donald Trump Pacifier Fox

None of this should come as a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. After all, Trump himself told us years ago that he is “the most fabulous whiner.” No, really. He literally said that he whines until he gets what he wants. And it may be one of the few times that we can actually believe him…

SEE THIS: Victim-in-Chief: Trump is the most Cowardly, Whining, Crybaby to Ever Be President

The latest demonstration of Trump’s distemperment came in a comment posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He is apparently very disturbed by what he says as the failure of Congress to confirm his judicial and attorney nominees. Specifically, he is upset at the Democrats who have legitimate reasons to oppose them. Trump lashed out saying that…

A ‘Blue Slip’ means that if you’re a Republican President, and there happens to be just one Democrat Senator in a state where you are appointing a U.S. Attorney or District Court Judge, you will never be successful in getting a Republican confirmed. In other words, ‘Blue Slips’ are a disaster, and I have eight GREAT Republican U.S. Attorney Candidates who will not be able to fulfill their service to the people of a state that voted overwhelmingly for me. The only one I can appoint is a Democrat, and that’s not the deal. Nobody can say that is fair or, even, Constitutional. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT.”

There’s a lot wrong with that pitiful rant. Overall, Trump’s core complaints are two-fold. 1) that he can “never be successful” in getting his nominees confirmed. And 2) that it’s all the fault of Democrats. However, both of those gripes are false.

First of all, Trump’s complaint about judges not being confirmed doesn’t comport with reality. Here are the facts. He had 174 judges confirmed in his first term. He has six confirmed so far in his current term. He currently has 14 nominees pending. However, none of them are in states with a Democratic senator. Therefore, there are no “Blue Slips” to contend with. So if his judges aren’t being confirmed, there are other reasons.

Trump then complains about his U.S. Attorney nominees who aren’t being confirmed. Blue Slips are not a part of the process for that job. So, once again, they are not the reason that his nominees have stalled. The facts are that he has already had 19 confirmed. Part of the problem here is that Trump keeps appointing people on an interim basis, and then trying to make them formal nominees. But there are laws that regulate the circumstances under which that is permitted. And Trump doesn’t understand those laws, or care about them.

So Trump’s problems with both his judges and U.S. attorneys are purely of his own making. But rather than acknowledge his ignorance and incompetence, he is resorting to his favorite reaction: Whining and trying to shift the blame for his failures unto others. And this is the “leader” that MAGA thinks is so strong and powerful? Yeah, right!

Fox News Lies Fuel the Trump Regime’s Efforts to Blame Democrats and Migrants for the Shutdown

Posted by on October 15, 2025 at 1:40 pm. 0 Comments :

It’s Day 15 of the Trump Shutdown and there is still no discernable exit scenario. Republicans continue to insist that they have nothing to negotiate. Democrats remain steadfastly committed to preventing the healthcare costs for millions of Americans from doubling.

Donald Trump and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

So naturally it’s time for Donald Trump and his minions to look to their Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, for support to bolster their faltering campaign to strangle the life out of the government that they despise and to avoid opening it up to serve the people, and perhaps, hold a vote on the issue that most terrifies Trump: releasing the Epstein files.

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

On Wednesday morning, Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, joined in on the lies that Democrats want to keep the government shutdown in order to give free healthcare to illegals aliens. But her “proof” of that is a story by Fox News that completely fails to validate the charge – even when it isn’t spreading flagrant falsehoods. The article published by Fox News leads off saying that…

“EXCLUSIVE: The White House unveiled a number of criminal illegal migrants who received Medicaid as the Senate remains in gridlock over the government shutdown. Fox News Digital obtained detailed information surrounding the arrests of 49 illegal migrants, who have all been deported under the Trump administration, who were arrested for an array of crimes that occurred in the U.S. […] Republicans argue that ‘more than 1 million illegal aliens’ receive Medicaid under the previously existing program that was revised under Trump’s landmark bill.”

Nowhere in the Fox News article that Leavitt cited is there any documentation of the alleged “criminal illegal migrants who received Medicaid.” And even if there were documentation, finding 49 out of a million is hardly evidence of a crisis. It’s barely a rounding error.

The Fox News article concedes that “federal law prohibits undocumented individuals from obtaining Medicaid.” Which is a point that Democrats have been making all along. The article even acknowledges that “A White House official explained that illegal migrants could obtain Medicaid through different means, but, specifically, emergency care.” And emergency care is mandated by the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA), a law that was signed by President Ronald Reagan in 1986.

The article further stated that “emergency care spending on those not legally in the U.S. rose from $3 billion to $9 billion under President Joe Biden.” Once again, there is nothing validating that claim in the article. So it should come as no surprise that it is a totally false claim. According to KFF Health News…

“A new Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report shows a total of $27 billion in federal and state spending on Emergency Medicaid for noncitizen immigrants between fiscal years (FY) 2017 and 2023. […] this spending represents less than 1% of overall spending in Medicaid over the entire time period, and, in some years, is less than half of a percent. Spending on Emergency Medicaid was $3.8 billion in FY 2023 and was .4% of total Medicaid spending that year.”

The figures stated above cover most of the Biden presidency and don’t come close to the $9 billion stated by Fox News. What’s more, those CBO numbers are for all immigrants – both legal and otherwise. Which means that the Republican excuse for keeping the Trump Shutdown going is a tiny fraction of federal funds for emergency care that has been mandated by law for forty years.

The real reason that Trump and Republicans are deliberately prolonging the shutdown is, of course, their determination to shutter dozens of critical government agencies, fire thousands of federal employees, and reform American democracy into an autocracy that is ruled by Dear Leader Trump. It’s a model of totalitarian takeover that Trump has borrowed from his idols, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. It’s dangerous, and treasonous, and he must not be allowed to succeed. Because in America we have NO KINGS! Be there.

Energy Secretary on Fox News Won’t Deny that Trump’s Cuts are Purposefully Punishing Blue States

Posted by on October 3, 2025 at 1:41 pm. 0 Comments :

The flagrant hostilities expressed by Donald Trump toward his fellow Americans in the Democratic Party are symptoms of a wholly unprecedented psychosis in an American president. He isn’t merely opposing them politically. He has a visceral hatred for them and regards them as enemies of the state. And “them” I mean all Americans who don’t worship Dear Leader Trump.

Donald Trump

This week Trump posted a meme on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, in which he called Democrats “The Party of Hate, Evil, and Satan.” Which is particularly repulsive following the shooting of conservative activist, Charlie Kirk, when Trump and others in politics are lecturing on the importance of unifying the country and avoiding the sort of hateful rhetoric that could incite violence. Clearly he doesn’t mean that for himself and his MAGA cronies.

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

Trump is totally ignoring the calls for civility, even from his own party. To the contrary, he is escalating the animus. And not just to deliver insults to his political foes. He is directing his regime to deliberately abuse the power of his office in order to harm Democrats.

For example, his Energy Secretary, Chris Wright, was dispatched to Fox News on Friday where he was asked a direct question about Trump’s obvious efforts to hurt Democrats. And, surprisingly, Wright was briefly challenged by Fox’s Stuart Varney…

Varney: You canceled, I believe, almost $8 billion of energy projects across the country. Most of these projects are in blue states. The Democrats are saying they’re being punished for their politics. So Mr. Secretary, are you punishing the blue states?
Wright: We are punishing the wasteful spending of taxpayer dollars. Do you and your viewers want to pay $70 million to decarbonize mac and cheese? Do you want to pay to decarbonize Uber Eats in San Francisco, or subsidize E-bike lanes lanes in Portlandia? People don’t want to pay taxpayer money on that.
Varney: You got me with the mac and cheese Mr. Secretary. Great performance on the show today.

VARNEY: You canceled almost $8b of energy projects, most of them in blue states. Are you punishing the blue states?CHRIS WRIGHT: We are punishing the wasteful spending of taxpayer dollars … do you want to subsidize E-bike lanes lanes in Portlandia?(That's not a no!)

Notice that Wright completely dodged the question about whether Trump was “punishing the blue states.” He refused to acknowledge the obvious fact that the only cuts Trump was making was to states that didn’t vote for him. That deliberate – and potentially illegal – partisanship was previously confirmed by Trump’s director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Russell Vought, one of the principal authors of the authoritarian handbook, “Project 2025,” that Trump has embraced.

Russ Vought is a principal author of the authoritarian handbook, "Project 2025," that Trump said he didn't read, but then made Vought his OMB Director.Now Vought says that he's cancelling billions in funds to mitigate the climate crisis, but all in blue states. That's extortion and illegal.

On a more substantive note, every initiative that Wright mentioned would actually save taxpayers money. Decarbonizing – or reducing carbon emissions – improves energy efficiency, lowers utility bills, and mitigates the harmful effects of climate change. That includes the cost of healthcare for those adversely impacted.

Likewise, promoting bicycling reduces pollution, traffic congestion, and reliance on public transportation. All of which saves the expenses related to street maintenance and repair, and operating buses and trains.

Wright was praised by Varney for his “performance” during the interview, Which was an appropriating choice of words. Because everything done by the Trump regime is designed as if it were the sort of a pseudo reality TV program with which Trump is so familiar.

However, Trump et al can’t escape the real reality that Trump is abusing his power to hurt his perceived politically enemies. He actually admitted it himself recently in a post on Truth Social saying that he is working with Vought “to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut.”

With that Trump reveals that he is not a president for all the people, but just his MAGA cult. Therefore, he has no business occupying the White House. And the sooner he is removed the better off all Americans will be.

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

Posted by on October 2, 2025 at 1:09 pm. 0 Comments :

Now that Donald Trump has succeeded in implementing his government shutdown, the blame game in Washington D.C. has reached a fever pitch. Naturally, Democrats are blaming Republicans, and Republicans are blaming immigrants – and, oh yeah, Democrats.

Donald Trump

The Republican messaging is rife with flagrant lies about what Democrats want in order to pass the budget legislation. They insist that Democrats are demanding free healthcare for “illegal aliens.” That’s a lie. There are zero Democrats proposing that. But Republicans have decided that this will be their sole talking point because they couldn’t care less about ending the shutdown. In fact, they are rejoicing in it, and even bragging that it is helping them to achieve some of their long term goals.

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

However, the American people have other ideas. They are opposed to Trump and his GOP cohorts allowing healthcare costs to rise to exorbitantly unaffordable levels. As reported by CNN, a new poll by the Washington Post finds 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%]”

Rep. Rich McCormick dismisses a Washington Post poll showing Americans are blaming Republicans for the shutdown: "Polling is not very accurate because the pollsters generally get out of it what they want. I don't trust those polls."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-02T17:36:17.845Z

Meanwhile, over on Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, viewers got a morsel of truth from Democratic strategist Dan Kanninen. He told Fox’s Brian Roberts that…

“This month, if the ACA tax credits do not go forward, which is what the shutdown is about…viewers on this network who are 60 years old and making $75,000 a year, will see $841.00 increases monthly to the health insurance premiums.”

Republicans were hoping that they could shove this shutdown down America’s throat and make Democrats take the heat for it. But the American people are smarter than Republicans thought. And the GOP haven’t helped themselves with statements by their Dear Leader that reveal how thrilled he is with the shutdown that will cause severe harm to millions. He posted on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that…

“I have a meeting today with Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame, to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM…I can’t believe the Radical Left Democrats gave me this unprecedented opportunity.”

That comment is not only an expression of appreciation for the shutdown, but Trump is threatening to cut only “Democratic Agencies,” which is an openly partisan, and potentially illegal admission. He also reveals that he knows well about the authoritarian handbook “Project 2025,” that he has been denying any knowledge of for months.

What’s more, his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, was also on Fox News touting Trump’s position on the shutdown and the grossly adverse consequences of it. She laid out a threat that is reminiscent of Mafia lingo in a futile attempt to coerce Democrats into submission, saying…

“Democrats should know that they put the White House and the president in this position. And if they don’t want further harm on their constituents back home, then they need to reopen the government. It’s very simple.”

Karoline Leavitt tells Fox News that Democrats must comply with Trump's demands. This is mob talk: Do what we say and your constituents won't be harmed!Why doesn't Trump agree with Democrats to stop skyrocketing healthcare costs to prevent further harm to his constituents? It's very simple.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-10-02T17:03:27.568Z

Maybe Trump and the Republicans are the ones who should reopen the government, since they are the majority party in Congress with the power and obligation to do so. Or are they cool with harming their constituents back home? Clearly it’s the latter. Why else would Trump and company be moving so quickly and gleefully to dispense their harm?
