Trump is OUTRAGED that ‘WOKE’ Museums Reveal ‘How Bad Slavery Was’

Posted by on August 19, 2025 at 2:43 pm. 0 Comments :

Whatever day it is, it is another day that Donald Trump is seething with fury over some contrived offense that exists only in his warped imagination. It hardly matters what the subject is. Trump eagerly exploits it to fuel his latest tantrum, to smear a political foe, or to deflect from some other atrocity that he is desperate to evade, such as his unsavory relationships with pedophile partners Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Donald Trump Angry

Today the scandal du jour is Trump’s horror that there are museums in America that accurately reflect the history of the nation with all of its pride and pimples. In Trump’s cartoon brain there is only goodness and light in the nation’s past. Unless it was during the tenure of a “radical, lunatic, Democrat.” In that case it was abhorrent beyond belief and merits immediate investigation and incarceration. Would he put that in his “museum”?

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

In a comment posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump expressed his dismay over the state of museums that have the audacity to preserve the nation’s historical legacy. In a rabidly unhinged outburst, Trump raged that…

“The Museums throughout Washington, but all over the Country are, essentially, the last remaining segment of ‘WOKE.’ The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been — Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future.”

That’s right! Who hasn’t been aghast at how “OUT OF CONTRO” the certifiably psycho Smithsonian is? And now that they have been caught disseminating propaganda that smears slavery as “bad” it can no longer be ignored or tolerated. Especially when all of the “Brightness” and “Success” that this country has produced is completely discarded and never celebrated by the Smithsonian or any other museum. Well, except for all of the many exhibits that celebrate America in every museum all over the country. But Trump was just getting warmed up. He continued…

“We are not going to allow this to happen, and I have instructed my attorneys to go through the Museums, and start the exact same process that has been done with Colleges and Universities where tremendous progress has been made. This Country cannot be WOKE, because WOKE IS BROKE. We have the ‘HOTTEST’ Country in the World, and we want people to talk about it, including in our Museums.”

Is this what MAGA voted for? Trump is dispatching his crackpot attorneys to swarm out around the country to do to museums what he has done to colleges and universities. By which he means smothering them in bogus lawsuits, withholding federal funds, and threatening further fascist suppression, if they fail to comply with his illegal and unconstitutional demands.

Trump wants to make sure that every college, museum, and media outlet, dispenses his grotesquely authoritarian perspective of the world. And no other views will be permitted. In fact, those with opposing views can expect to be arrested and sent to Trump’s gulags in some alligator swamp or third world country. And since slavery is no longer considered to be bad in the Era of Trump, critics may find themselves in chains, picking cotton or assembling iPhones.

And yes, this is what MAGA voted for. But not the rest of us. And we will not sit by while Trump and his cult destroy American democracy and freedom. Trump is already suffering some the worst public approval ratings in modern times. And his mental health is on shaky ground, to put it mildly. Along with his insane attacks on schools and museums and the free press, he is also suited up for a fierce battle…

The day after his meeting with Zelenskyy and European leaders, and while Americans are struggling with inflated prices and tariffs, Trump is focused on what Americans need most: fighting windmills.#TrumpsBrainIsMush!

‘Hot as a Pistol’? Trump Quotes Putin Using the Exact Same Words that Trump Uses About Himself

Posted by on August 16, 2025 at 12:28 pm. 1 Comments :

The highly anticipated summit between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin took place on Friday where the two leaders were set to discuss the state of the war that Russia started against Ukraine. The expectations for progress toward peace were essentially met because no one really thought that Putin wanted peace, or that Trump had the diplomatic chops to get anything worthwhile done.

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

Donald Trump Vladimir Putin

On the other hand, everyone knew that Trump is an ego-driven bucket of narcissistic slop who can be manipulated with the slightest offerings of undeserved flattery. And most notably, Putin knew this and took full advantage of it. Putin actually has Trump believing that they have a unique camaraderie that permits him to communicate with the Russian dictator as if via a secret language.

SEE THIS: The Putin Whisperer: Trump Brags that ‘Putin Speaks to Me, He Doesn’t Speak to Anybody Else’

The rapport that Trump has with Putin was revealed during a post-summit interview that Trump gave to Sean Hannity of Fox News (who else?). Trump spoke to Hannity immediately following the summit, before speaking to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy or any of our NATO allies. And while there was much disgorging of solipsistic propaganda, one part stood out as emblematic of Trump’s narrow focus on his singularly deranged perception of reality. He said that…

“Vladimir said just a little while ago, he said ‘I’ve never seen anybody do so much so fast.’ He said, ‘your country is, like, hot as a pistol,’ and a year ago he thought it was dead. Everybody thought it was dead.”

There are only two possible responses to that comment. Either it was an invention of Trump’s overactive and conceit-riddled imagination, or Putin was fluffing him to get a favorable reaction.

However, there is something else peculiar about Trump’s comment that needs to be recognized. Trump’s words, that he is attributing to Putin, are identical to the words that he has previously used himself to describe what he thinks is the great success he’s had in his second occupation of the White House. In June Trump spoke to the Wall Street Journal who reported that…

“President Trump told the Wall Street Journal on Sunday that he had completely changed the image of the United States since returning to office, speaking just hours after the Pentagon conducted military strikes against Iran.

“‘Our country is hot as a pistol,’ Trump said in a brief interview. ‘Six months ago, our country was cold as ice. It was dead.'”

Trump claims that Putin told him that "your country is, like, hot as a pistol," and "a year ago he thought it was dead."That's funny. Those are the very same words Trump used about America 2 months ago. Who knew that Putin speaks exactly the same as Trump? Or is it vice versa?

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-16T17:18:44.617Z

What are the odds that Putin chose the very same words to compliment Trump at yesterday’s summit? What’s more, these are words that Trump has used repeatedly for a variety of subjects. He used them to describe his failing Twitter ripoff, saying that “Truth Social is hot as a pistol.” And of course, he used them to describe himself saying that “I was sort of like a hot guy. I was hot as a pistol.”

A couple of other interesting moments from the Hannity interview include Trump attacking Gavin Newsom as a pretext to lying about Putin and mail-in voting (which 30 other countries permit, including Russia)…

And then there was Trump’s attempt to play an elementary school trick on Putin, that didn’t work. (Okay, maybe not, but what the heck? It’s not implausible considering his actual maturity level)…

Trump tries to get Putin to look down so he can flick his nose. But Putin doesn't fall for it. ???That pretty much sums up how badly Trump flubbed the summit.

Trump’s Pentagon Flack Brags About Female Military Recruitment with Obviously Fake AI Images

Posted by on August 15, 2025 at 12:59 pm. 0 Comments :

The flamingly dishonest propaganda that is emblematic of the Donald Trump regime has taken another turn for the worse. Just when you think they have hit rock bottom, they manage to find a trap door down there that leads to shaft dropping another mile or so.

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

Donald Trump, Military Parade

The latest sinkhole being explored by the Trumpies is their celebration of what they claim to be a profound success in military recruitment of women. This is the same military that is headed up by Defense Secretary (and former Fox News host), Pete Hegseth, who has decreed that all diversity initiatives that promoted women in the services be terminated. But he spares no expense on making himself pretty for the TV cameras.

SEE THIS: Pete Hegseth Spends Thousands for a Pentagon Makeup Studio to Fortify America’s Military Might

This week the ultra-MAGA Trump-fluffing network, One America News (OAN), did an interview with Defense Department spokeswoman Kingsley Wilson. Host Matt Gaetz (former congressman and failed Attorney General nominee) conducted the interview in which they were both gushing over the alleged increase in female recruits. During the segment there was video playing of a variety of proud women soldiers in uniform. There was just one problem.

A quick glance at the images showed that they were all AI fakes. The images were generated using Elon Musk’s version of AI called Grok. And they even still had the logo in the bottom corners. Neither Gaetz nor Wilson disclosed the source of the videos or their bogus beginnings. They were too proud to let reality get in the way…

Gaetz: Tell us what the numbers are saying about the recruitment of women in our military.
Wilson: The numbers are absolutely fantastic across the board…Under the previous administration we had about 16,000 female recruits last year. Now we’ve got upwards of 24,000. This is a nearly 7,000 person increase in female recruits alone. And again, it’s not just women. It’s men too. The Army, the Air Force, the Navy, everyone is hitting their metrics early And it is a testament to Secretary Hegseth and president Trump’s leadership.

It turns out that young Americans want to sign up to be warfighters. They don’t want this ideology that the previous administration tried to hoist on them. They want to get back to basics. And that’s what we’re doing at DoD. And the numbers are just proof in the pudding.

If the spokesperson for the Pentagon will sit by while fake images are presented to support her reported numbers of female recruits, how are we supposed to trust the numbers themselves? They offered nothing to document the claim. And even if the numbers are accurate, they presented zero evidence that recruitment increased because of Trump, or Hegseth, or any increasing desire to become warfighters by American men or women.

Quite often recruitment goes up if economic opportunities in civilian life decline. And Trump’s economy and job creation has been on a steady down slope. They also failed to mention that the rise in recruitment is a trend that began during President Biden’s administration. What’s more, after Trump and Hegseth took over, they lowered the standards for education and physical health.

The profile on the Department of Defense Rapid Response X/Twitter account says “Welcome To The Official Rapid Response Account For The DOD! Supporting The Mission Of @SecDef And Fighting Against Fake News!” Hopefully their ability to fight actual wars is not reflected in their ability to fight fake news. If it is, we are in big trouble. They can’t even put on a decent parade.

Trump Has (Another) Senior Moment Forgetting How Much He Hates ‘Sleepy Eyes’ Chuck Todd

Posted by on August 12, 2025 at 1:45 pm. 3 Comments :

The sundowning mental acuity of Donald Trump becomes more evident with each passing day. His verbal gaffes, factual distortions, angry outbursts, and general incoherence and departures from reality would justify commitment to an institution for anyone other than the power mongering leader of a political cult.

Donald Trump WTF

Trump has manifested the Woody Allen joke wherein he laments a relative who is so crazy that he thinks he’s a chicken. But the family won’t get him help because…they need the eggs. That perfectly describes Trump’s family and his disciples in Congress and the media who regularly cover for Trump and sanewash his sickness. They know he’s nuts, but they rely on it to retain their power and wealth. Meanwhile, the rest of the nation has to suffer the humiliation of having Trump occupying their White House.

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

This week we have already seen Trump say that he was going to meet Vladimir Putin in Russia, when the meeting will be in Alaska. He has claimed to have reduced drug prices by a mathematically impossible 1,500%. And on Tuesday morning Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, in which he offered damning praise for former NBC correspondent, Chuck Todd…

“‘I don’t think we’ve had anybody with this much impact on the Country since FDR.’ Chuck Todd, formerly of NBC FAKE NEWS, in an interview with journalist David Brody. Wow, thank you Chuck. I always said that you were far better than the scum that runs the FAKE NEWS at NBC and, especially, Brian Roberts and ‘Concast.’ You are a Free Man now. Congratulations – Use your time well!”

To be sure, virtually everything that Trump does and says these days is intended to deflect from his unsavory relationship with child sex traffickers, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. As for “journalist” David Brody, he is actually a Trump-fluffing squawking head on the Christian Broadcasting Network. But more to the point, Trump seems to have completely forgotten how he really feels about Chuck Todd. Over the course of many years Trump has attacked him as a disseminator of “fake” news with a typically infantile Trump nickname. For instance…

  • March 27, 2024: “Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd, who was fired for dismal performance coupled with horrendous television ratings.”
  • May 7, 2023: “So funny to watch Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd on Meet the Fake Press.”
  • April 9, 2023: “highly partisan Democrat anchor “Sleepy Eyes” Chuck Todd.”
  • July 7, 2022: “Is Chuck Todd Ready To MEET HIS DEMISE?”

Now, suddenly, Trump adores Todd and congratulations him on his freedom to exalt Trump. Except that isn’t what Todd wasn’t actually doing. Obviously somebody fed Trump an edited version of Todd’s remarks. The comments in context were merely pointing out that Trump had an impact, but that it wasn’t necessarily a positive one. Todd continued…

“Culturally, in particular. Certainly, in how even our politics is conducted. In that sense, I think the question is does he have impact on policy for decades to come? […] These are things that, you and I know, are things that the previous Republican Party would have…’How dare government tell business what to do?’ And yet there’s no outcry.”

For the record, here a few others who have had an “impact” America: Adolf Hitler, Lee Harvey Oswald, and Osama Bin Laden. That is the company that Trump is in. It is often difficult to come to the defense of Todd, who frequently sanitizes Trump, and other Republican extremists, with his trademark bothsiderisms. And even in these remarks he watered down the most salient points. But he was not praising Trump, as Trump believes.

In other comments posted to Truth Social, Trump was equally off kilter. In one he brazenly lied that…

“Trillions of Dollars are being taken in on Tariffs, which has been incredible for our Country, its Stock Market, its General Wealth, and just about everything else. It has been proven, that even at this late stage, Tariffs have not caused Inflation […] Consumers aren’t even paying these Tariffs.”

Reality begs to differ. As reported in the New York Times…

“U.S. Inflation Report Shows Effects of Trump’s Tariffs: A gauge of underlying inflation in July showed prices increasing at the fastest annual pace in five months, a sign that businesses are passing along tariff-related costs to customers.”

In another example, Trump continued his whining about Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, for not lowering interest rates. He even escalated his complaint with a threat suggesting his intention to fire Powell…

Trump is still bashing – and threatening – Fed chair Jerome Powell for not lowering interest rates.But the Trump economy is running too hot and inflation is rising. Increasing interest rates will make that worse.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-12T17:07:05.193Z

Once again, the real world interceded to correct Trump’s deranged misunderstanding of economics and current events. Granted, it is not always clear if Trump is just being ignorant, delusional, or dishonest. But the result is the same. It is destructive and dangerous and contrary to democratic governance. And the sooner he is stopped from his egomaniacal, authoritarian ambitions, the better. Keep up the resistance. And hopefully his family will get him the help that he so sorely needs.

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

Posted by on August 10, 2025 at 2:09 pm. 1 Comments :

In 2024, a survey of presidential historians conducted by the Presidential Greatness Project found that out of forty-five American presidents, Donald Trump ranked 45th. Yet somehow, coming in dead last didn’t stop his loyal cult disciples from turning out to vote for him again, sending him back the White House that he is currently turning into a glitter palace that appears to be a cross between the design sensibilities of Liberace and Saddam Hussein.

Donald Trump, Mocking Disability

Even worse, Trump is transforming America into a neo-fascist mecca of authoritarian tyranny. He is brazenly defying the courts, implementing Gestapo tactics, embracing enemies, alienating allies, and surrounding himself with sycophants whose loyalty is to him rather than the Constitution. Trump is simultaneously preparing to steal future elections to insure his aspirations to retain power indefinitely.

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

The record of Trump’s occupation of the White House is one that is marred with scandal and disrepute. That includes his 34 felony convictions, his tens of thousands of lies, his cheating on all three of his wives, and his endless efforts to stuff his own pockets with billions of ill-gotten dollars. And that’s before we even get into his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein and his moll, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Setting all of that grotesquery aside momentarily, it is impossible to observe the reality of Trump without becoming downright nauseous. He manages to find ways to embarrass America in ways never thought possible before. For instance, on Sunday morning Trump posted a comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, that is emblematic of his infantile tendencies. He raged that…

“Crooked Nancy Pelosi, and her very ‘interesting’ husband, beat ever Hedge Fund in 2024. In other words, these two very average ‘minds’ beat ALL of the Super Geniuses on Wall Street, thousands of them. It’s all INSIDE iNFORMATION! Is anybody looking into this??? She is a disgusting degenerate, who Impeached me twice, on NO GROUNDS, and LOST! How are you feeling now, Nancy???”

Trump's latest post on Truth Social is downright embarrassing. He attacks Nancy Pelosi as a "disgusting degenerate," and whines about having been impeached twice. He's a quivering mass of pent up vengefulness.He sounds like a sad and pathetic parody of a Bond villain.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-10T07:58:53.108Z

Who knows what triggered this particular tantrum? He doesn’t really require a reason to act out his random hostilities. It’s enough for him to harbor a virulent hatred for a perceived foe in order to lash out. In this case it’s former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her “interesting” husband. What he finds interesting about him is unmentioned. Perhaps that he was nearly murdered by a Trump supporter, which Trump has callously joked about.

Trump’s comment focuses on the financial success of the Pelosi family. Apparently that is an admirable achievement for anyone except Democrats. Trump, as usual has zero evidence of any wrongdoing by the Pelosis. He is just spreading spurious accusations in order to smear his political opponents. And of course, he floats the prospect of someone “looking into this,” which is his not so secret directive to his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi, to begin an investigation and issue indictments.

In closing, Trump revealed his true intentions and sleazy character. Like a petulant eight year old, Trump resorts to name-calling, whining that Pelosi is a “disgusting degenerate.” Then he reminds everyone that he was impeached twice, on solid grounds, with abundant evidence. And finally he asks, in the manner of a Mafia boss, “How are you feeling now, Nancy???” He might as well have added “Nice noggin ya got there. Be a shame if someone tried to crack it open with a hammer.”

It remains utterly unexplainable that anyone can still support this cretinous blob of hate. His language is abominable. His openly expressed thoughts are disgusting. His demeanor is that of a crime kingpin with severe emotional problems. His ego is ginormous, yet pitifully fragile. And none of his cohorts in Congress or the press will tell him the truth about what an embarrassment he is to himself, but more importantly to the nation.

So it’s up to us. With help from South Park, Stephen Colbert, the Daily Show, and other talented satirists who aren’t afraid to speak truth to power. Trump’s Achilles heel is his ego. We need to target it without mercy. LFG!

Trump’s Truth Social AI ChatBot Relies Almost Entirely on Fox News and Other Trump-Fluffing Media

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.

SEE THIS: Trump Unloads Dozens of Deranged Comments in a Morning Rage that Confirms His Mental Infirmity

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.

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

Posted by on August 5, 2025 at 1:08 pm. 2 Comments :

When Donald Trump launched his Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), he was brimming with optimism about the future of his new venture. Four years later that optimism has utterly failed to be affirmed. The business that runs Trump’s Truth Social website and a handful of other insolvent enterprises has never turned a profit.

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

In 2024, TMTG reported a net loss of $400.9 million despite only booking revenue of $3.6 million. They reported a net loss of $31.7 million in the first quarter of 2025. Most recently, in the second quarter of 2025, the company reported a net loss of $20 million on only $883,300 in net sales.

However, none of that prevented Trump from making preposterous claims about his financial misadventures. During an interview on CNBC, Trump complained that he has been treated “very badly” by banks that he alleged were discriminating against him. Of course that might be because of the 34 felony convictions he has for defrauding banks. Not to mention a civil lawsuit finding of liability that cost him about half a billion dollars.

FOR THE RECORD: Trump was found guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to defraud banks. Maybe that had something to do with his trouble getting U.S. banks to do business with him. So he went to the Russians.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-08-05T16:07:51.546Z

Any reputable bank would be hard pressed to justify doing business with Trump who, in addition to the above, has filed at least four bankruptcies. As for TMTG, the week before his inauguration this year it was trading at about $43.00. Six months later it is under $17.00. A decline of more than 60%. During the same time period the S&P 500 rose more than 8%.

The only recent news for the company was its purchase of $2 billion worth of Bitcoin. Which is a major departure from its core media technology business to a sort of cryptocurrency treasury. TMTG had to raise funds from unnamed institutional investors to finance the purchase, which raises questions of conflicts of interest and and/or political bribery.

Meanwhile, Trump’s crypto meme coin, which he launched the day before his inauguration at $74.00, is now trading at about $9.00, a massive drop of 88%. Trump also signed legislation – the so-called GENIUS Act – that benefits his own investments in the crypto market. Nothing suspicious about that, is there?

Despite the economic debacles that Trump has presided over, he himself has managed to profit. He continues to be skillful at enriching himself while fleecing his flock of cult disciples. At the same time he is providing a path for interested parties to grease his palm for political favors. That includes adversarial foreign operatives who are buying influence, not investing.

The brief history of Trump’s involvement in the media, technology, and crypto businesses is rampant with failure and potential fraud. For instance…

Truth Social Parent Plans Desperate Share Buyback to Boost its Failing Stock and Enrich Trump

SRSLY? Trump Brags that His Pitifully Failing Meme Coin is a ‘Tracker’ of His Imaginary Success
Trump’s meme coin is hardly a game-changer. While it has generated a significant horde of untraceable cash for Trump, who paid nothing for his shares, it has been an abysmal loser for nearly everyone else who was foolish enough to invest in it.

Trump’s Truth Social is Creating ‘Non-Woke’ Investment Portfolios for MAGA Cult Investors/Dupes

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

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

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

Posted by on August 4, 2025 at 2:22 pm. 0 Comments :

America is currently mired in a multitude of debacles mostly concocted by Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies. They range from tariff-driven inflation, to foreign conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine, to the deliberate dismantling of democracy. And all the while the Confounder-in-Chief is focused like a laser on the things that matter most to the American people: Petty celebrity advertisements for blue jeans.

Donald Trump, Insane, Straight Jacket

Trump has always been an avid consumer of media trivialities and tabloid gossip. He regularly spends his time as “president” lambasting notables such as Stephen Colbert, Rosie O’Donnell, Bruce Springsteen, and his famous declaration that “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT.” Most recently Trump went bonkers over some rather mild criticism by Charlamagne Tha God on the Fox News program hosted by his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump.

However, rather than addressing the myriad misfortunes of the nation, Trump is still chasing irrelevancies that he thinks are major hardships befalling the nation’s citizens. His desperate attempts at diversion are at least partly intended to deflect from the Jeffrey Epstein/Ghislaine Maxwell stories that continue to drag him down.

To that end Trump posted a tediously long comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, blasting the imaginary critics of a Jeans ad featuring Sydney Sweeney. Trump raged incoherently in his typically rambling style that touched on several unrelated subjects. What follows are a few annotated excerpts.

“Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the ‘HOTTEST’ ad out there. It’s for American Eagle, and the jeans are ‘flying off the shelves.'”
In fact, Trump likely has no idea who Sweeney is. He definitely has no idea how “HOT” the ad is or if the jeans are selling well.

“Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement, THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER! The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad.”
Once again, Trump is talking out of his asinine perspective that has no basis in reality. Jaguar’s CEO reigned as long planned after 35 years at the company. And many people still regard the car as the peak of luxury and performance.

“Shouldn’t they have learned a lesson from Bud Lite, which went Woke and essentially destroyed, in a short campaign, the Company. The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, with BILLIONS OF DOLLARS SO FOOLISHLY LOST.”
For the record, Bud Lite and Anheuser-Busch is hardly “destroyed.” Its stock (BUD) briefly declined in 2023, following a controversial ad with a trans woman. But it recovered by the end of that year. It’s still higher today, even after Trump’s tariffs triggered another decline.

“Look at Woke singer Taylor Swift. Ever since I alerted the world as to what she was by saying on TRUTH that I can’t stand her (HATE!). She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became, NO LONGER HOT.”
No one except Trump’s glassy-eyed cult followers care what he says about Taylor Swift. She was never “booed out of the Super Bowl.” And she is a billionaire superstar who as “HOT” today as ever.

Trump closed his harangue by ranting that “Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be.” In other words, remain blissfully ignorant (un-woke), and blindly obey the edicts of my MAGA party or be cast into the cornfield. Trump thinks he can make being Republican cool by embracing clothing commercials and attacking cars and beer and popular artists.

Yeah, that’s the ticket. Keep it up Donnie. That will surely entice America’s voters. But seriously, after posts like this, it remains an enduring mystery how anyone can support this mentally defective whiner who epitomizes everything that cool aint.

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

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

The lengths that MAGA media will go to exalt Donald Trump seem to be stretching ever further into the stratosphere of slobbering sycophancy. When Trump said that he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any support, many people thought it was a gross exaggeration for effect. It turns out he was understating the degree of worshipfulness that Trump’s cult followers are capable of.

Donald Trump, Pervert

The continuing saga of Jeffrey Epstein and his unsavory relationship with Trump is proving to be revealing on many levels. It is showcasing Trump’s affinity for pedophiles, as well as his own perverse lechery. It is putting on display how brazenly he will lie and suppress any information that might expose his grotesque behavior. And it is giving the Trump-fluffing press endless opportunities to suck up to him while burying any potentially incriminating facts. Even so, he is not doing himself any favors.

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

Among the Trumpiest media venues is Newsmax, where its prime host, Greg Kelly, holds court every night to lavish praise on Dear Leader. And his fierce defense for Trump during the Epstein scandal is second-to-none for unabashed adoration. On Friday night’s program, Kelly addressed Trump’s tender feelings toward Epstein partner, and convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, to whom he had sent his “best wishes” when she was arrested.

More recently Trump was questioned about his Justice Department sending his former personal attorney, now Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, to interview Maxwell in prison. The inquiries included whether he would grant Maxwell a pardon. Instead of the rational and decent response – an unqualified “Hell no!” – Trump replied “Well, I’m allowed to give her a pardon.” It was revealed shortly thereafter that the Trump regime had Maxwell transferred from the federal prison in Florida to a cushy, minimum security facility in Texas.

In the midst of these events Newsmax’s Kelly delivered a monologue that should produce a severe state of nausea in principled people. After this aberrent episode, the network might want to consider renaming itself “NewsMaxwell.” Kelly gushed…

“Oh boy. There he is again. Jeffrey Epstein…He pled guilty to that horrible, sick stuff. But that doesn’t mean that Ghislaine Maxwell is guilty. And there is a hell of a lot of evidence out there that she’s innocent. And a hell of a lot of evidence that they railroaded her. Part of a “deep state,” hysterical media plot. And I don’t like it. And I don’t care if it’s unpopular. In fact, I’m really kind of impressed with Trump right now, that he won’t be boxed in when it comes to this story.”

This Newsmax freak is not only defending Trump, he's defending convicted child sex trafficker, and Jeffrey Epstein partner, Ghislaine Maxwell.Because if you're a Trump defender you are by default a pedophile defender.

It’s true that Epstein’s crimes don’t mean that Maxwell is guilty. What makes Maxwell guilty is that she was convicted unanimously by a jury after considering the evidence and applying the law. Kelly’s assertion that there is “a lot of evidence out there that she is innocent” is pure garbage. And notably, he didn’t bother to cite any of that allegedly abundant evidence.

However, what really makes Kelly’s rant abhorrent is how he connects it to Trump. Kelly is “impressed” that Trump refuses to “be boxed in” simply because Maxwell was convicted on the strength of convincing documentary evidence and witness testimony against her. What courage Trump is showing in Kelly’s glassy-eyed view.

Much of the MAGA media shares Kelly’s perverse perspective. But they aren’t particularly confident about it. They are so afraid trying to support their position that have virtually banished most reporting about Maxwell and Epstein. For instance, this week Fox News spent only about 18 minutes reporting on Epstein, but 181 minutes on a Sydney Sweeney jeans advertisement.

Between Monday and Thursday, Fox News mentioned Sydney Sweeney 181 times, and Jeffrey Epstein 18 times.

Meanwhile, Trump is busy making matters worse for himself. On another Newsmax program the same day, Trump was interviewed by Rob Finnerty. During that segment Trump described how much he lusts after his Propaganda Secretary, Karolina Leavitt. And if this doesn’t make your skin crawl, you might ant to consult a mental health professional…

OMG! "THOSE LIPS. THE WAY THEY MOVE!"Trump is letting the world see his grotesque lust for his 26 year old Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt.How can anyone watch this and not be creeped out by this wrinkled perv?

Trump Unloads Dozens of Deranged Comments in a Morning Rage that Confirms His Mental Infirmity

Posted by on July 30, 2025 at 2:35 pm. 4 Comments :

The perpetual state of rage that envelopes Donald Trump is documented in the stream of incoherence that he dispenses daily on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. It is an uninterrupted temper tantrum that manifests in an outpouring of insults, lies, and shameless self-exaltation.

Donald Trump Angry

These days Trump is placing extra emphasis on his rants in order to deflect from news about his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. And on Wednesday morning he suffered a particularly acute episode of explosive diarhetoric as he pounded out 37 putrid posts in the early hours of his day, rather than engage in any of the work that one might expect of a president. That’s a typical schedule for Trump, who is generally more focused on what’s pissing him off, instead of what’s pertinent to the needs of the American people. He always puts himself and his massive yet fragile ego first.

SEE THIS: The King of Conspiracy Theories Whines that Democrats Don’t Talk Enough About How Awesome He Is

The onslaught of invective from Trump on this occasion began with a tired rehash of his hatred for Stephen Colbert. Trump complained that…

“Everybody is saying that I was solely responsible for the firing of Stephen Colbert from CBS, Late Night. That is not true! The reason he was fired was a pure lack of TALENT. […] Next up will be an even less talented Jimmy Kimmel, and then, a weak, and very insecure, Jimmy Fallon.”

Actually, it was Trump and his cronies who were giving him credit for the cancelation of Colbert’s show. And Trump is the last person who should be assessing the talent of others. For the record, Colbert’s show is number one in its time period. The cancelation, which isn’t effective until May of 2026, is due only to the cowardly compliance of the network’s corporate masters.

Next up was Trump’s visceral animosity toward a strong woman on Fox News who dared to criticize the blubbering snowflake Trump. He whined that…

“I can’t stand Jessica Tarlov of THE FIVE. A real loser!!! DJT”

That’s it. Trump didn’t bother to give any reason for this outburst. It might have had something to do with Tarlov having spoken out Tuesday on matters related to the inflationary Trump Tax (tariffs), or to Trump’s historically abysmal approval polling, or to her advocacy for assault rifle regulations in the wake of a mass shooting in Manhattan.

Trump simply can’t tolerate any criticism. But it’s monumentally worse if it comes from a woman. Trump has gone after Tarlov before, calling her a “failed TV personality” who Fox News should not allow on the air. Even on a program (“The five”) where she is outnumbered four-to-one. For the record, Tarlov has a doctorate in political science and government from the London School of Economics. So it’s no wonder that Trump is afraid of her.

The majority of Trump’s posts expressed his tyrannical demand that Republicans in the Senate rush to confirm his judicial nominees. He singled out Sen. Chuck Grassley for failing to overcome Democratic opposition via use of the “blue slip” that allows members of both parties to invoke a virtual veto of a nominee. But Trump resorted to his standard viciousness, saying “Democrats like Schumer, Warner, Kaine, Booker, Schiff, and others, SLEAZEBAGS ALL.” He called the process “unconstitutional” and a “hoax” (of course), and lied that it would prevent him from ever getting a nominee confirmed…

“…in California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Virginia, and other places, where there is, coincidentally, the highest level of crime and corruption.”

For the record, the highest levels of crime and corruption are almost entirely in red states.

Among Trump’s postings were several that were just rabidly partisan memes. They contained messages that reflected the hatred that he has for fellow Americans. But worse, he was exhibiting his most fascistic aspirations by calling for the persecution of his political foes. For instance…

This morning Trump posted these comments calling for the arrest and incarceration (and worse) of Democrats.This is more evidence of his authoritarian aspirations and aversion to hatred for democracy. #TrumpIsAFascist

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-07-30T17:21:37.228Z

All of this is more evidence of the sociopathic sickness that courses through Trump’s veins. He is a bitter, hostile, vengeful, malignant narcissist, who should never be entrusted with power. And the sooner he is removed from office the better off the nation – and the world – will be.
