OH-NO! Fox News is OUTRAGED that Congress is Too Inept to Pass Trump’s Wildly Unpopular Agenda

Posted by on April 1, 2026 at 2:43 pm. 0 Comments :

Serving as the Ministry of Propaganda for Donald Trump and his MAGA Cult has got to be an awfully difficult duty these days. That’s the mission that Fox News is struggling to perform as the nation grows ever more repulsed by Trump and his anti-American crusade to transform the United States into a totalitarian dictatorship whose sole purpose is to elevate the power and wealth of Dear Leader Trump.

Trump’s second occupation of the White House has produced nothing but misery for the American people, and chaos for the world. He has wrecked the economy with his inflationary tariffs. He has brought violence to the streets of the nation with his ICE StormTrumpers. He has started an illegal war against Iran on flagrantly false premises. And in the meantime, he has dedicated himself to building vanity ballrooms, plastering his name and face on U.S. institutions and silly merchandise, and wasting hundreds of millions of dollars on petty pastimes like golf and watching MAGA media. Consequently, his approval ratings have been circling the toilet…

SEE THIS: Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

So what is an ultra partisan propaganda purveyor like Fox News to do under these circumstances? To no one’s surprise they double down on the preposterous positions they have been pushing for years. Unfortunately for them, it doesn’t have the same impact when the lies are aimed at fostering a floundering loser who is incapable of forming a coherent thought.

On Wednesday’s episode of Fox’s morning show “Outnumbered,” co-host Kaylee McGhee White sought to prop up Trump by shifting the blame for his failures onto Congress. In a segment discussing a recent Supreme Court ruling that Trump could not continue to build his golden ballroom without the approval of Congress, White whined that…

“The judge emphasized congressional authority. But as a reminder, Congress can’t even pass DHS funding. Congress can’t pass the Save America Act.”

Exactly! White is helpfully confirming that Congress, as it is presently constituted, is incompetent and utterly incapable of performing its designated legislative duties. Under the stewardship of House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate GOP leader John Thune, they are the least productive Congress in decades. And they are currently in the midst of a partial shutdown because they can’t pass legislation to fulfill their most basic function, to keep the government open.

What White and her Fox News comrades fail to mention is that this pathetic excuse for a legislative body is wholly run by a Republican majority. So the failures that Fox News is amplifying are entirely due to the inept management of the Republican Party and its Dear Leader Trump.

For his part, Trump is proving that there is no bottom to how low his approval ratings can go. Even a recent Fox News poll found that “nearly two-thirds, 64%, are dissatisfied [and] that’s the highest dissatisfaction rating of President Trump’s second term.” He was additionally found to be deeply underwater on virtually every issue, including the economy, inflation, healthcare, foreign policy, and immigration.

No wonder Fox News is trying to deflect responsibility from Trump to anything else. It’s just too bad that they are such bumbling buttkissers that they can’t make a rational argument to absolve their messiah of the guilt he so richly deserves. But if they want to blame Congress, fine. The American people will have something to say about that in November.

Dementia J. Trump Calls the Supreme Court ‘STUPID’ as the Birthright Citizenship Case Begins

Posted by on March 30, 2026 at 2:16 pm. 0 Comments :

There are two wars currently raging for the United States. One is the “little excursion” that Donald Trump embarked upon against Iran on phony allegations of nuclear capabilities, and without getting authorization from Congress, as required by law. The other is Trump’s war against democracy here at home, where he is desperately trying to avoid an electoral blowout in the November midterms.

Donald Trump

Trump’s fear of Democrats assuming majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate is driving him to plot far more detailed strategies than anything he has done for the Iran conflict. Which isn’t a very high bar, because his plans for Iran are little more than bomb everything, declare victory, then bomb some more anyway. But his fellow Americans that he regards as the nation’s real enemies get much greater attention…

SEE THIS: Trump Unleashes a Manic Tirade Attacking Those He Says are America’s Greatest Enemy – Democrats?

Trump is justified to be worried about Democrats gaining control of Congress. The list of his impeachable acts is growing by the day. And that isn’t even counting his criminal acts that violate state and federal laws, as well as the Constitution. And the prospect of Democratic victories across the country is as near a certainty as election predictions can get.

So what is Trump doing to defend himself from this approaching political massacre? He is resorting to his typically anti-American tactics of trying to rig elections and suppress turnout. Because he knows that campaigning on his broadly unpopular policies and abysmal record would only result in failure. Consequently, he is embarking on a path to steal the midterms by making it harder, or impossible, to vote. To that end he posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, advocating ways to undermine democracy.

As the Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments on Birthright Citizenship, Trump thinks calling them "STUPID" will secure their votes.He also criticizes selling American citizenship, which is a policy that he introduced with his $5 million Trump Gold Card.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-03-30T17:02:29.230Z

Trump’s comment outlines some of his favorite methods of interfering with elections. such as attacking the principle of “Birthright Citizenship” that is enshrined in the Constitution’s 14th Amendment. The amendment explicitly grants citizenship to “All persons born or naturalized in the United States.” Trump would love to invalidate all of those voters. And he is hoping that the conservative majority on the Supreme court will help him to achieve that goal. However, Trump’s strategy to get the Court to rule in his favor is, to say the least, unique. He wrote that…

“Birthright Citizenship is not about rich people from China, and the rest of the World, who want their children, and hundreds of thousands more, FOR PAY, to ridiculously become citizens of the United States of America. It is about the BABIES OF SLAVES! We are the only Country in the World that dignifies this subject with even discussion. Look at the dates of this long ago legislation – THE EXACT END OF THE CIVIL WAR! The World is getting rich selling citizenships to our Country, while at the same time laughing at how STUPID our U.S. Court System has become (TARIFFS!). ‘Dumb Judges and Justices will not a great Country make!'”

What a brilliant move by the alleged master deal maker. Insult all of the Justices – six of whom are conservative, including three that he appointed – as too dumb to make correct decisions. And he referenced the recent ruling that declared his inflationary tariffs unconstitutional. Does Trump think that insulting the Justices will secure their votes in his favor?

What’s more, Trump also blasted the notion of paying for citizenship. Which is peculiar because that’s actually a policy that he introduced with an executive order creating his “Trump Gold Card.” For a mere $5 million dollars, anyone can buy American citizenship, including drug traffickers, fraudulent business people, and foreign spies.

Insulting and threatening people as a means of getting them to support him is nothing new for Trump. He did the same thing recently while trying to get his so-called “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) passed in Congress. He threatened his own Republicans saying that “I WILL NEVER (EVER!) ENDORSE ANYONE WHO VOTES AGAINST ‘SAVE AMERICA!!!” And he insulted members of both parties over the same issue.

That ought to do it. Who wouldn’t want to vote with Trump after that highly effective method of persuasion? Especially considering how popular he is with the American people right now.

UH-OH! Fox News Poll Spells DOOM for Trump and His MAGA Republicans in Congress

Posted by on March 27, 2026 at 1:55 pm. 0 Comments :

Less than a year and a half ago, Donald Trump managed to eke out a narrow victory and return to his occupation of the White House. And it didn’t take long for him to successfully sink the electoral prospects of his blindly obedient MAGA minions in what can now be called the Republican Cult.

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

Donald Trump, Fox News, White House

Trump’s agenda of imposing unlawful and inflationary tariffs that increased the cost of everything from groceries, to gasoline, to housing, to healthcare, and more, were just the beginning of his assault on the American people. He followed that up with deployments of his ICE StormTrumpers in U.S. cities. Then he decided to wage an unprovoked and illegal war against Iran. And all the while disgorging virulent hate speech intended to divide the American people.

SEE THIS: Trump Unleashes a Manic Tirade Attacking Those He Says are America’s Greatest Enemy – Democrats?

The first year of Trump’s second term could not have been more politically crippling if he had devised it deliberately to destroy the GOP. His approval ratings have broken through the basement floor and are heading toward the Earth’s burning core. And this isn’t the opinion of what he calls the “radical left lunatics” in the mainstream media. Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, just a released a poll that found him floundering.

Fox published their results in an article declaring that “Sour voters say Washington is out of touch.” That headline actually bails Trump out by suggesting that it it isn’t his fault that everything sucks. It’s those “sour” voters. But the rest of the article wasn’t as gentle.

The article began by noting that “Voters are not only dissatisfied with the direction of the country but also pessimistic about the economic outlook.” The poll found that “Nearly two-thirds, 64%, are dissatisfied [and] that’s the highest dissatisfaction rating of President Trump’s second term.” Then the article elaborated saying that…

“His worst numbers are on inflation, with a new low of 28% approving […] His 34% approval for the economy is another new low, down 6 points since January and 9 points from a year ago. Other ratings are also well underwater: healthcare (36% approve, 64% disapprove), Iran (36-64), taxes (36-64), foreign policy (38-62), and immigration (44-56).”

Trump is unlikely to be able to improve on any of that between now and the midterm elections in November. One important reason for that is that he isn’t even trying to. To the contrary, he is doubling down on his widely opposed domestic policies by insisting that everything is the best it’s ever been in the history of mankind. And he’s celebrating his war in Iran as a “little excursion” that he says he won in the first hour, three weeks ago. Which begs the question, why is he still fighting, and even escalating, with thousands of troops being deployed to the Middle East, and requests for $200 billion more in funding?

It’s tempting to muse that, with regard to Trump, “When you’ve lost Fox News…” But Trump has never been satisfied with the polling by Fox. He frequently goes on the network to whine about their polls that sometimes put him in a negative light. But Fox News remains his mass media mouthpiece. And polls like these will rarely turn up on the primetime shows that Trump watches. So most of his cult followers will never see these numbers. However, here’s an example that snuck through during a daytime program…

Fox News may be accepting the reality that Trump is a mentally impaired loser whose star is fading. More likely, they realize that their audience is already aware of how dismal their lives are without Fox or Trump trying to persuade them that they are prosperous and happy. In any event, expect Trump to chastise Fox for having the audacity to post these poll results. He will surely regard it as an act of betrayal, and he might even sic his FCC boss on them with impotent threats of revoking their licenses (that don’t exist).

SRSLY? Trump Threatens Democrats With ICE Thugs in Airports to Coerce Passage of DHS Funding

Posted by on March 21, 2026 at 12:11 pm. 0 Comments :

For the third time since Donald Trump returned to his vengeance and ego driven occupation of the White House, the nation is mired in a government shutdown orchestrated by Trump and his MAGA Republicans in Congress. And it only took a little over one year to match or exceed the record for duration of a shutdown – twice.

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

Donald Trump Angry

No rational observers are falling for the GOP spin that Democrats are responsible for the shutdown. Republicans control both houses of Congress and the White House. If they were interested – or competent – they could have easily negotiated agreements that avoided the shutdowns, but they preferred to hold the American people hostage, forcing them to suffer skyrocketing health insurance costs, and tolerating violent tactics by Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement thugs (ICE). They never really wanted to avoid the shutdowns…

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

The burning issue that Trump and the GOP are fixated on this time around is the passage of funding for ICE in a Homeland Security appropriations bill. Trump and his MAGA toadies refuse to consider common sense proposals to reign in the brutality of his untrained and unqualified ICE agents. They would rather cripple government services that Americans rely on, and force federal employees to miss work or go without pay. And on Saturday morning Trump weighed in with a crackpot comment posted on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, saying that…

“If the Radical Left Democrats don’t immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before.”

REALLY? Trump is effectively admitting that the tactics employed by his ICE StormTrumpers are so hostile and dangerous that they are useful as threats to coerce Democrats to obey his authority. But it’s not an especially wise position to take for an agency that already has broad disapproval ratings. Does he think that the American people want to be screened for travel by the same masked thugs who murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti?

What’s more, Trump is regurgitating the right-wing talking points that accuse Democrats of being responsible for the disruptions at airports due to the Republican shutdown. In reality, it is Democrats who have offered proposals to fund the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), as well as FEMA, the Coast Guard, and other Homeland Security functions. But Republicans have voted against those proposals – five times so far.

Trump’s comment also suggested that ICE agents at the airport would be able to make the “immediate arrest of all Illegal Immigrants” Does he think that immigrants are coming in illegally by plane, where there are already checkpoints screening foreign passengers? And in a ridiculous and racist aside he specifies that there will be a “heavy emphasis on those from Somalia.”

Trump’s brazen bullying and threats are unlikely to achieve his goal of convincing Democrats to pass the DHS funding bill without reforms. The “art-of-the-dealer” is proving how pitiful his negotiating skills actually are. He can’t even get all of his Republicans in the Senate to sign on. But this new threat sinks to ever lower depths of depravity. If anything, it will result in an even worse defeat in Congress.

GOP Oversight Chairman Lies that 85% of Trump-Epstein Pervs are Democrats’ – Reality Disagrees

Posted by on February 25, 2026 at 1:45 pm. 0 Comments :

This week the news cycle was interrupted by the annual State of the Union address that is delivered by the president. And true to form, the current occupier of the White House, Donald Trump, unloaded a record long harangue that surely didn’t disappoint his glassy-eyed cult followers who hungered for more red meat hostility aimed at Democrats, women, foreigners, and the rest of the anti-Trump realists that they have been brainwashed to hate. It was nearly two hours of innumerable lies, insults, and shameless self-exaltations for imaginary accomplishments.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming. Trump’s SOTU speech is unlikely to move the needle on his historically abysmal disapproval ratings. So the attention of the American people is going to quickly return to the issues that they care most about, which Trump largely ignored in his speech. They include the economy and the high cost of living, immigration and Trump’s ICE thugs terrorizing them and their neighbors, and the horrific crimes committed by Trump and his confederates in association with Jeffrey Epstein.

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

To the dismay of Trump and his toadies, the Epstein scandal is not going to go away. Particularly if they keep trying to cover it up and/or sweep it under the rug. But that won’t stop them from trying. Leading the charge from Congress is the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer. On Wednesday morning he took up his usual post on Fox News to disseminate his partisan propaganda. And typically, he lied to Fox host Harris Faulkner about the key participants in the Epstein affair, and whether he intended to interview any Republicans.

“The truth of the matter is that about 85% of the people that were prominent who were involved with Epstein are, you know, Democrats. So we’re gonna continue to question whoever they are regardless of political party or political identification, but the fact of the matter is the majority of the people were Democrats.”

That is about as brazen a lie as he could possibly have manufactured. While there certainly are some Democrats who associated with Epstein, the vast majority of his creepy comrades, as exposed in the Trump-Epstein files and elsewhere, were Republicans or their GOP supporters. Here’s a list of the best known people associated with Epstein…

  • REPUBLICANS:
  • Donald J. Trump
  • Melania Trump
  • Elon Musk
  • Alan Dershowitz
  • Howard Lutnick
  • Kevin Warsh
  • Steve Bannon
  • Tom Barrack
  • Peter Thiel
  • DEMOCRATS:
  • Bill Clinton

Despite this evidence that many more Republicans have fraternized with Epstein, Comer and his committee haven’t called a single one of them testify. He has, however, called Bill and Hillary Clinton, who have both agreed to be interviewed. What’s more, the Clintons have been forthright in their demands that all of the Trump-Epstein files be released. While Trump and Comer and the rest of the Republican pedophile protectors continue to obstruct the release.

If Comer were telling the truth, that 85% of those involved with Epstein were Democrats (he isn’t), then wouldn’t he and Trump and the Republicans have more incentive to release all of the files unredacted? Why are Democrats so fervently advocating for full transparency, while Republicans are opposed to it? What are they afraid of?

Perhaps it has something to do with all of the evidence that Trump’s relationship with Epstein included his participation in criminal activities. A new report reveals that Trump’s “Justice” Department is actively suppressing such evidence. According to NPR…

“The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. It also removed some documents from the public database where accusations against Jeffrey Epstein also mention Trump.

“Some files have not been made public despite a law mandating their release. These include what appear to be more than 50 pages of FBI interviews, as well as notes from conversations with a woman who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago when she was a minor.”

Democrats have been adamant that the Trump-Epstein files must be released. They are willing to let the chips fall where they may. But Republicans are determined to prevent that from happening. Partisans like Comer are abusing their power to shield Trump from accountability. And he isn’t shy about admitting it. He told Fox News that “Look, I support the president. I’m gonna do whatever the president wants.” Which doesn’t seem like something someone in charge of “Oversight” should be saying or doing.

James Comer is the MAGA GOP chair of the House Oversight Committee. Which he seems to think is the Committee for treating all of Trump's crimes as an oversight.The good news is that he's such an idiot that his partisan hearings invariably make himself and Trump look worse.

Trump and His Propaganda Secretary Have No Idea What the State of the Union Address Is For

Posted by on February 24, 2026 at 1:15 pm. 0 Comments :

On Tuesday night Donald Trump will be straying from his customary schedule of golfing, dining at the Mar-a-Lago buffet, and rage-watching Fox News, to deliver his State of the Union address (SOTU) before a joint session of Congress. It’s going to be a strain on him physically and mentally, but he’ll soldier through, if only to bask in the adoration of his MAGA GOP disciples.

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

Donald Trump, Wah

The State of the Union is a constitutionally mandated duty of any president. Although it doesn’t have to be delivered live or in a speech, it has become a traditional affair since first being broadcast on television live in primetime by Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965. Now 60 years later, Trump is planning to diminish its significance further with the help of his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News.

SEE THIS: Fox News is TERRIFIED of How Awful Trump is Doing Prior to His State of the Union Lie Fest

The SOTU is supposed to be a dissertation on the current welfare of the nation. Presidents are expected to give an honest appraisal of the country’s condition on matters of importance both domestically and internationally. However, Trump will have difficulty with that objective considering that it requires being honest, something that he is congenitally incapable of.

The pre-speech comments by Trump reveal that he actually has no idea what the SOTU is intended for. He thinks that it’s just another platform for him to spew self-serving lies to exalt himself and malign his political foes. He deliberately lied to reporters on Monday saying that…

“We have the greatest economy we’ve ever had. We have the most activity we’ve ever had. I’m making a speech tomorrow night, and you’ll be hearing me say that. It’s going to be a long speech because we have so much to talk about.”

So Trump has no intention of telling the truth about the State of the Union. He is promising instead to ramble on interminably about how magnificent he is, and all of the wonderful, albeit imaginary, things that he’s done. Never mind that reality vehemently contradicts him. The country is still suffering from high inflation that is mainly due to his idiotic tariffs. His ICE agents are terrorizing American citizens along with law-abiding immigrants. We are threatening war against foreign nations without any rational cause. All of which has contributed to his historically abysmal approval ratings.

By pontificating on what he believes are his glorious accomplishments, Trump is actually just reminding everyone about what a pitiful failure he is. The people know how much their groceries cost, and how much they are paying for other necessities, including housing and healthcare. No amount of gaslighting by Trump will persuade any but his most brainwashed cult devotees that we are living in a Trumpian utopia.

Nevertheless, the Trump regime is dead set on trying to convince the American people that everything is just hunky dory. Which is why Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, was out Tuesday morning previewing the lies that Trump plans to disseminate in his speech tonight.

“He’ll be sharing these stories again of everyday Americans who are directly benefiting from his policies, and making a few new policy announcements as well as to continue tackling the affordability crisis that Joe Biden created one year ago, And the president will be talking about the positive metrics we have seen and moving forward towards making life again more affordable and prosperous for all Americans.”

Karoline Leavitt: "The president will be making a few new policy announcements to continue tackling the affordability crisis that Joe Biden created one year ago." (Joe Biden was no longer president one year ago.)

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-24T13:10:58.592Z

Just like Trump, Leavitt is squarely focused on delivering a speech that celebrates Trump and his fantasies of fabulousness. She even slips in a slam on President Biden, who could not have created an affordability crisis a year ago because he was not president then. Also, didn’t Trump say that the whole “affordability” thing was a hoax?

The SOTU promises to be another lengthy harangue by Trump that wouldn’t pass for plausible fiction. However, it may offer some drama. While he has said that he’s inviting MAGA-tized guests like Erika Kirk (Charlie’s widow), Democrats will be attending with some Epstein/Trump survivors, and victims of his ICE thugs. So will have to face some of those who he hurt the most.

While Trump will be pitching a preposterously rosy scenario, it’s safe to assume that he won’t be mentioning at all some of the critical issues that the American people really care about. Such as the current government shutdown, his inflationary tariffs, his loss at the Supreme Court, his impending war with Iran, his obstructing the release of the Trump-Epstein files, or so many other matters that he’s anxious to suppress because they reflect negatively (i.e. realistically) on him.

If Trump thinks that this address is going to reverse his sinking popularity, he’s going to be sorely disappointed. And that disappointment will likely trigger even more raving madness from Trump. So fasten your seats belts. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride. And in the meantime, watch the “People’s State of the Union“ instead.

Trump Hypes a New York Post Smear of a Democrat for Doing What Many More Republicans Are Doing

Posted by on February 5, 2026 at 2:44 pm. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump to manufacture a recovery of his rapidly declining approval is evident in his increasingly ludicrous public remarks and unhinged social media posts. His deranged behavior and brazen dishonesty have always been an integral part of his warped character. But as he sinks ever lower his outbursts are becoming ever more bizarre.

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

Donald Trump, Twitter

Trump’s polling seems to hit a new low every day. According to the latest Quinnipiac poll, his current approval rating is a dismal 37%. That’s consistent with other polls, most of which show him struggling to reach 40%. Consequently, Trump and his regime mouthpieces are going to extreme lengths to spin reality into something that doesn’t hurt his tender fee fees.

SEE THIS: Trump Proudly Hypes a Poll that Shows His MAGA-tists are Mindless Members of a Totalitarian Cult

On Wednesday night, Trump himself sought to salve his wounded ego by posting a link on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to an article in Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post that smeared a Democratic congressman for trading stocks. The article is a month old, but that doesn’t matter when you’re trying to whip up some positive propaganda from thin air. The headline blared that “Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi beats Pelosi’s stock portfolio performance with 35% return.” It began…

“Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi led all Democrats with the best stock portfolio performance of 2025, beating even the She-Wolf of Wall Street, Nancy Pelosi, data obtained by The Post shows.” […] “Most of it came from his outsized position in tech giant NVIDIA — up 40% for the year.

The article noted that Suozzi “supports bipartisan legislation…to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks.” That’s legislation that many Republicans still are not getting behind. And Trump refuses to support it unless it exempts the executive branch – meaning him. All of the pending legislation is currently stalled in committee or awaiting floor votes that are not scheduled.

Near the bottom of the article, the Post finally noted that a Republican, Tim Moore, made even more money trading stocks (52%) than Suozzi, who ranks down at number five. What’s more, a chart included in the article shows that eight of the top ten congressional stock traders are Republicans. Which is not ever mentioned in the text of the article.

Nancy Pelosi’s 18% isn’t even among the top ten, despite having made it into the headline. Although notable Republicans like Ted Cruz (50%), and Lisa Murkowski (35%), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (33%), and Mitch McConnell (29%) are in the top ten. [Note: The Post doesn’t know what Murkowski looks like. They put a photo of Susan Collins on the Murkowski bar of the chart]

For some reason the Post decided to make this article all about the Democratic representative, and only added the Republicans as an afterthought. Even though the Republicans are far worse offenders as revealed on the Post’s own chart. And Trump latches onto it as a handy piece of anti-Democrat propaganda. Even if it’s a month later when he’s scrounging around for ways to smear his political foes and deflect from his own much more serious misconduct and outright crimes. Epstein files, anyone?

Trump Didn’t Notify Congress of His Venezuela Attack to Avoid Media Leaks – Then He Leaked It

Posted by on January 4, 2026 at 2:42 pm. 1 Comments :

There are many enemies plotting to destroy Donald Trump and his MAGA movement. At least in his sickly mind. That sort of paranoia frequently accompanies the symptoms of malignant narcissism that he clearly suffers from. It creates a psychotic loop of mental impairment that feeds on its own perversity.

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

Donald Trump

Chief among Trump’s perceived enemies is the media. Although it’s a complex love/hate relationship wherein he despises the very same free press whose attention he lusts after. What he calls “the enemy of the people” is also his best friend. And he milks it relentlessly in a futile attempt to juice his standing in the polls.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, Celebrates Trump’s Approval Ratings – That SUCK!

In the latest episode of the daily Trump soap opera, “Days of Our Lies,” we find our star lashing out manically at those who he is convinced are fiendishly conspiring against him. Following his illegal attack on Venezuela, and the kidnapping of its nefarious and illegitimate head of state, Nicholas Maduro, Trump was asked by the press about why he failed to comply with the law that requires him to inform Congress and get their consent before conducting such an operation. He replied that “Congress has a tendency leak. This would not be good.”

First of all, there is zero evidence of any such tendency by Congress. Particularly the members of the “Gang of 8” leaders of relevant committees. And secondly, that wouldn’t be a valid reason to violate a law that is spelled out in the Constitution. If any president could simply ignore the Constitution simply by claiming that complying with it would be inconvenient, then what good would the Constitution be? “Sorry,” President Waterboard might say, “But if we don’t torture a confession out of that suspect he might not be convicted.”

What makes Trump’s remarks all the worse is that, after whining about leaks that didn’t happen he, or someone in his regime, actually leaked information about the Venezuela operation to the press. As reported by Semafor…

“The New York Times and Washington Post learned of a secret US raid on Venezuela soon before it was scheduled to begin Friday night — but held off publishing what they knew to avoid endangering US troops, two people familiar with the communications between the administration and the news organizations said.

“The decisions in the New York and Washington newsrooms to maintain official secrecy is in keeping with longstanding American journalistic traditions.”

So the Trump regime told two national news organizations about the Venezuela mission in advance, but withheld that information from the people’s representatives in Congress, who he is required by law to tell. And they weren’t even news organizations that were predictably pro-Trump, such as Fox News or Newsmax. So why would he spill to the New York Times and the Washington Post? Perhaps to get some positive press in the aftermath of the attack. Semafor also noted that…

“Trump celebrated Maduro’s capture in a phone interview with The New York Times at 4:30 a.m. Saturday,” [and that] “the Washington Post editorial board came out strongly in favor of the move, praising the Trump administration’s decisiveness and declaring the move a ‘major victory for American interests.'”

That makes sense since Trump already knew that MAGA media like Fox News was already going to report nice things about anything he does. And while the Times and the Post have been trending rightward, they might be encouraged if he threw them a juicy scoop.

Trump’s Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, completed the contradictory stance by the Trumpists that the media couldn’t be trusted. In fact, he admitted that the media are trustworthy custodians of sensitive info. He told George Stephanopoulos of ABC’s This Week (another non-MAGA news outlet) that…

“Frankly, a number of media outlets had gotten leaks that this was coming and held it for that very reason. And we thank them for doing that or lives could’ve been lost.”

So not only are they not distrustful of the press, they are thanking the media for their integrity and patriotism. Which is a measure of respect that they wouldn’t afford to members of Congress, despite their legal obligations. Yet they will still bash the press and Congress because they believe it earns them political points to do so. And then they will do whatever the heck they want, because that’s how authoritarians roll.

UPDATE: Trump didn’t tell Congress about the attack on Venezuela, but he did tell the oil companies. So it really was all about oil after all. And that is, by definition, the behavior of a fascist oligarchy.

The Epstein Defiles: GOP Chairman Threatens Bill and Hillary Clinton with Contempt of Congress

Posted by on December 14, 2025 at 1:49 pm. 0 Comments :

Last month a nearly unanimous bipartisan vote in Congress (to which Donald Trump vehemently objected) ordered the release of the Epstein files that are in the custody of Trump’s “Justice” Department. They have until Friday, December 19, to comply. Although, with the track record of the Trump regime ignoring their legal obligations, it is by no means certain that they will meet that deadline.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

In the meantime, a batch of photographs obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate were released by congressional Democrats that revealed the relationships between Epstein and Trump, as well as a few others, including Steve Bannon, Alan Dershowitz, and Bill Clinton. Of course the only persons that Trump is interested in investigating are Democrats. And he made that clear to his Attorney Genuflect, Pam Bondi.

SEE THIS: HUH? Trump Orders Pam Bondi to Investigate Bill Clinton and Other Democrats Re: Jeffrey Epstein

As the walls close in around Trump, his MAGA minions in the House of Representatives are working furiously to shield him from any accountability. For the most part, that means deflecting attention away from Trump and unto his political foes. Consequently, James Comer, the GOP chair of the House “Persecution of Democrats” Committee (aka the Oversight Committee), is now threatening Bill and Hillary Clinton with contempt of Congress for not yet having complied with his vindictive subpoenas to appear for depositions on the Epstein matter.

If the Clintons have any useful information about Epstein and his criminal activities, they should give testimony to Congress and cooperate with the probe. However, it is notable that the only people that Comer has threatened with contempt are the Clintons. Others who have had documented connections to Epstein have not been been under such pressure. And that includes the man that Epstein said was his best friend for 15 years, Donald Trump.

Comer has led numerous politically prejudicial investigations during his tenure as committee chair. They include probes into President Biden’s financial records, an impeachment inquiry, and his use of the autopen. Comer also held prolonged investigations of Hunter Biden. None of these purely partisan probes produce even a shred of evidence of any wrongdoing. But that hasn’t deterred Comer from trying again…and again…and again.

The Epstein hearings would be far more interesting and useful if Trump were subpoenaed to testify. Also other Trump allied folks like Steve Bannon, Ghislaine Maxwell, Alan Dershowitz, and Peter Theil. But Comer and the Republicans on the committee don’t seem to be interested in any of them. However, the Clintons are being threatened with contempt.

At this rate it won’t be long until Comer tries to drag President Obama into this. Or maybe Nancy Pelosi, or Jimmy Kimmel, or any other completely unrelated person that Trump despises and seeks vengeance against. That’s his modus operandi. And Comer is his obedient supplicant who does his bidding without question. Just like everyone in Trump’s Cabinet of shameless toadies, for whom the cause of serving justice has been supplanted by the devotion to serving Dear Leader.

Nancy Pelosi’s Retirement Triggers Another Display of Trump’s Heinous, Hateful, Histrionics

Posted by on November 6, 2025 at 2:02 pm. 0 Comments :

To say that the retirement of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is the end of an era would be a profound understatement. Her four decades of service to her constituents and country, culminating in becoming the first woman to rise to the Speakership, will be recorded in American history as an unprecedented achievement.

Donald Trump, Nancy Pelosi

Among the things that Pelosi will be relieved from in her retirement, are the constant, infantile insults hurled at her by Donald Trump, who is seething with jealousy and a maniacal obsession for vengeance. Trump’s attacks are typically fueled by lies and personal animus. He rarely mentions her name without appending “crooked” or “crazy” to it. And he makes up “scandals” that have no basis in reality.

SEE THIS: FINALLY: Trump Admits that January 6th Was an Insurrection, But Blames it on Nancy Pelosi

After hearing about Pelosi’s intention to retire, Trump was asked by Peter Doocy of Fox News for a comment. And true to form, Trump exhibited his world-class aversion to civility and diplomacy. He raged that…

“The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country. She was rapidly losing control of her party, and it was never coming back. I’m very honored she impeached me twice and failed miserably twice. Nancy Pelosi is a highly overrated politician.”

There is literally nothing in that rant that contains even a shred of truth. Pelosi presided over some of the most productive years of Congress. She did not “lose control,” she passed it on. And her management of the two impeachments of Trump were both successful, as far as their progress in the House of Representatives is concerned.

However, no one should be surprised by Trump’s nauseating remarks that explicitly accuse Pelosi of criminality, albeit without evidence or even a citation of an actual crime. It is just his congenital callousness and habitual hatred that drives everything he does.

To be sure, Pelosi has had some harsh words for Trump at times. She recently described him as “a vile creature,” elaborating that he is…

“The worst thing on the face of the Earth…Because he’s the president of the United States, and he does not honor the Constitution of the United States. In fact, he’s turned the Supreme Court into a rogue court. He’s abolished the House of Representatives. He’s chilled the press.”

It’s hard to argue with that. Although, Pelosi has some extraordinarily moving justification for her negative feelings about Trump. Three years ago, when her husband Paul was the victim of a near fatal attack in their home, Trump made crude jokes about it for the entertainment of the cult followers at his rallies.

When Trump wasn’t laughing at an attempted murder, he was baselessly accusing Pelosi of financial fraud or some unexplained malfeasance related to the January 6th insurrection that he incited, and that was being investigated by Congress.

For her part, Pelosi released an inspiring video that summarized some of her tenure in Congress, her love for her country, and her devotion to public service. It was a touching recollection of a long career that was filled with the sort of dignity and honor that only a true patriot can muster. She said in part that…

“My message to the city I love is this: San Francisco, know your power. We have made history. We have made progress. We have always led the way. And now we must continue to do so by remaining full participants in our democracy and fighting for the American ideals we hold dear.”
