LOL: Trump Posts Democratic Governor’s Memo Proving He ‘Has Zero Credibility on Election Security’

Posted by on July 22, 2026 at 1:01 pm. 0 Comments :

The midterm election is just a little more than three months away. And the closer it gets, the more riddled with anxiety Donald Trump and his MAGA-tists become. Trump’s approval ratings continue to be dragged down by his reckless and illegal war against Iran, his mismanagement of the domestic economy, and his overall distasteful demeanor that is comprised mostly of his noxious hatred and relentless lying.

Donald Trump

Trump’s response to his persistent and spreading unpopularity has been to focus his attention on a subject that he seems to think is uppermost on the minds of the American people: Alleged election fraud in 2020. It’s a strategy that is simultaneously outdated, while actually being aimed at rigging future elections, which his White House minions are boldly admitting in public.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Homeland Security Honcho Threatens to Arrest and Imprison Disobedient Election Officials

On Tuesday night Trump was engaged in what he appears to believe are the essential duties of an American president: Shit-posting on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. He unloaded more than thirty rants before noon on Wednesday. They were all teetering on the brink of sanity, while serving no purpose other than to exalt himself.

In one particular comment, Trump reposted a memo from New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill regarding a technical glitch in the state’s voter registration system. In her memo, Gov. Sherrill disclosed that a software error resulted in some non-citizens mistakenly being added to the state’s voter registration rolls. There was no nefarious plot by Democrats or evil foreigners, or any deliberate intent to deceive. It was clearly not a case of election fraud by any rational standard. The mistaken registrations were recorded for Democrats, Republicans, and Unaffiliated voters.

What’s more, fewer then 6% of the errors – 0.009% of all voters – resulted in invalid votes mistakenly cast. No election outcomes were affected. And on top of all of that, Trump’s “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) would not have prevented any of it. Nevertheless, Trump declared that it was “Rigged Elections!!!” at the top of his post.

What’s funny is that the memo that Trump posted also had some decidedly negative assessments of Trump’s own disingenuous and self-serving efforts to interfere with the conduct of free and fair elections. Gov. Sherrill wrote that…

“As the Trump Administration tries to weaponize elections for political gain, I am ensuring we protect our elections. Let me be clear: Donald Trump has zero credibility on the issue of election integrity. For more than ten years, he has worked to undermine Americans’ faith in our elections by spreading lies about legitimate election results, attempting to overturn a free and fair election, encouraging an attack on our Capitol when he couldn’t accept the will of the voters, and defunding election security at the federal level.”

That’s a damn good summary of Trump’s un-American, anti-constitutional, scheming to accomplish what he has been falsely accusing Democrats of doing. And in a subsequent comment Trump actually made the case against his Voter Suppression bill. That comment attempted to counter the valid arguments that his Voter Suppression bill would place too big a burden on legitimate voters. It proposed providing free access to “birth certificates, citizenship-marked IDs, mobile units in rural areas, digital options, and assistance for elderly/disabled.”

However, none of those things are in Trump’s bill. So that post is, in effect, conceding that Trump’s bill actually does pose unacceptable burdens for legitimate voters. And combined with the fact that it doesn’t prevent invalid voters, there is no other conclusion than that Trump’s bill should be rejected.

America needs more voter participation, not less. And Trump needs to STFU until he has some verifiable evidence that to support his complaints. Which he hasn’t been able to provide for over six years now.

Trump FREAKS OUT Over a Democratic Proposal: ‘They Do This, and the Republican Party is DEAD!’

Posted by on July 20, 2026 at 2:21 pm. 0 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump continues to boil over as we get closer to the midterm elections in November, and Trump sinks farther down the rabid hole with record low approval ratings and no clue as to how to turn things around.

Donald Trump, Republican, GOP

Trump’s ongoing fiasco in Iran, with the resulting tragic loss of life, for both Americans and Iranians, and the fragmenting of international diplomatic relations, is just one reason why he is floundering. He is also presiding over an abysmal economy that is pressured by rising national debt and skyrocketing costs for gas, groceries, housing, healthcare, and more.

While Trump has no one to blame but himself, he still blames everyone else, especially his Democratic predecessors, Presidents Obama and Biden, who have been out of office for years. The only way out, from Trump’s perverse perspective, is to rig the election.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Homeland Security Honcho Threatens to Arrest and Imprison Disobedient Election Officials

Another red flag alarm indicating how badly worry is gnawing at his already mushy brain, is a comment that he posted Monday on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. Typically, it is an emotionally enraged outburst that is devoid of any coherent substance. He wrote simply that…

“They do this, and the Republican Party is DEAD!”

Trump on Truth Social: "They do this, and the Republican Party is DEAD!"www.politico.com/live-updates…Trump is afraid that positive reforms like expanding the Supreme Court, and term limits, and a code of ethics will kill the GOP?Well, that's just another great reason to do it.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-07-20T09:29:35.880Z

That petulant whine was accompanied by a link to an article about a Democratic proposal for Supreme Court reforms that was published by Politico. (Wait, aren’t they fake news?) The proposal by progressive Democrats called for expanding the number of Justices on the Supreme Court, imposing term limits, and mandating a code of ethics. It’s telling that Trump believes that those common sense reforms will kill the GOP.

That’s kind of like worrying that passing laws to prohibit extortion and murder will kill the Mafia. Of course Trump is adamantly opposed to making the Court more honest, accountable, and representative of the nation. Notably he didn’t cite anything specific about what would be killing the Republican Party. And since his MAGA-tists won’t ever read the Politico article for themselves, here’s an excerpt…

“The leaders of several prominent House Democratic caucuses are proposing a Supreme Court overhaul as well as the Senate filibuster in response to the justices’ decision to narrow the 1965 Voting Rights Act earlier this year.

“Their resolution obtained by POLITICO calls for the expansion of the Supreme Court and to establish term limits and a code of ethics for justices. It also calls for the elimination of the 60-vote filibuster in the Senate.”

Scary, isn’t it? Trump failed to mention that the Democrats also proposed terminating the filibuster in the Senate. Perhaps because Trump has been pushing for that for months. He also left out that the article said that “the resolution stands virtually no chance of adoption.” That may or may not be true, but it would definitely be an uphill battle.

Trump leaves things like that out precisely because it’s his intention to stir up fear. So he has to make his MAGA cultists believe that it’s imminent. Although he may be working against himself with the warning about killing the Republican Party. Because that would just be another great reason to do it. It would likely drive millions of voters to the polls who would be thrilled to see that outcome. So go for it Donny. Your strategy here would give a fantastic lift politically – for Democrats!

REALLY? Fox News is DUMBFOUNDED that Iran is Able to Fight Back After Trump ‘Obliterated’ Them

Posted by on July 19, 2026 at 3:07 pm. 0 Comments :

The degree of cognitive dysfunction in victims of brainwashing is measurable by how steadfastly they adhere to ideas that are demonstrably untrue and remain committed to obvious falsehoods no matter how much evidence of the truth they are exposed to. It’s a deplorable state of mental impairment that produces near zombie-like wretches desperately searching for brains.

Fox News, Maria Bartiromo, Donald Trump

There is no better example of this than the pathetic disciples of Donald Trump’s MAGA movement who have willingly abandoned all reliance on reality. These MAGApathic sufferers have instead adopted a blind faith in their Dear Leader to the exclusion of all reason. And this isn’t just about weak-minded citizens. Some members of the media are just as susceptible. And those who don’t comply are targeted for punishment

SEE THIS: Herr Trump Threatens to Muzzle the Free Press in His Unhinged Infomercial for Voter Suppression

Atop the list of MAGA media compliers is Trump’s own Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News. And the Senior Trump-fluffer on Fox is Maria Bartiromo. On Sunday morning Bartiromo provided an outstanding example of cult devotion in a segment wherein she interviewed former Trump staffer Victoria Coates, who is currently with the ultra right-wing Heritage Foundation. The subject was Trump’s reckless and illegal war against Iran where two more American soldiers were just reported killed.

Bartiromo: CENTCOM says that there will be outsized reaction in retaliation. But I don’t understand how it’s possible that Iran has the capabilities to fight this way and continue to try to lash out at Gulf countries and military bases. Because the U.S. has obliterated Iran’s military and the president continues to reiterate that.
Coates: Yes. And it you look at the numbers of missiles that they have been able to fire off from the beginning of this, late February early March, and what they are able to do now, it is very seriously degraded…I think their capabilities are lessened, but they’re not zero.

Consistent with cult programming, Bartiromo’s commentary displays her inability to process reality. The poor thing can’t understand how Iran can continue to fight since Dear Leader Trump has assured her that he has “obliterated” Iran’s military. What never crosses her mind is that the reason that Iran is able to continue fighting is because Trump is lying.

The fact that Iran persists in the battles, controls, in part, the Strait of Hormuz, and stubbornly refuses to accept Trump’s “peace” proposals, should convince a rational person that Trump’s assessments of the situation are – in technical terms – bullshit!

Bartiromo just mindlessly accepts whatever Trump tells her. And without even a hint of doubt she states, not as a Trump assertion, but as a fact, that “the U.S. has obliterated Iran’s military.” And her guest agrees. Although she seems to recognize that Iran’s defensive capabilities still exist to some degree, she doesn’t put up much of a counter argument to Bartiromo’s misperceptions.

So of course Bartiromo can’t understand. She is dumbfounded (with a B). Because anything that challengers her perception of Trump as infallible is inconceivable. The prime directive of a cult is that the Leader is never wrong, and everyone else is lying to you. And Bartiromo, along with her confederates at Fox News, are not going to divert from that path.

Herr Trump Threatens to Muzzle the Free Press in His Unhinged Infomercial for Voter Suppression

Posted by on July 17, 2026 at 11:39 am. 0 Comments :

The most media adverse president in American history, Donald Trump, lived down to his reputation for despising the free press – and the Constitution that protects it – in an entirely predictable half hour harangue on Thursday night. As if on automatic, Trump praised himself, disparaged his foes, and lied repeatedly.

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

Donald Trump and Media - ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, FOX

Trump’s hopes for capturing the attention of America were dashed by most news networks recognizing the total absence of newsworthiness, and the political nature of his tirade. So NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, and MS NOW chose not to air Trump’s speech live, but offered it on their streaming platforms. The Fox broadcast channel and Fox News on cable were the only national networks that aired the speech in full live. Which must have been a huge disappointment for the Trump regime who expected more just because…

SEE THIS: Karoline Leavitt: Everyone Should Watch Trump’s Speech Because Nobody Knows What He’ll Say

The media acting responsibly Thursday night is precisely why Trump hates them so virulently. And it perturbed him so much that he even addressed it in the speech…

“In a rare move, NBC and ABC fake news have both said that they would not cover this speech – they knew what it was about – because of the fact that they don’t like the topic, because they know how corrupt our system is and they don’t want to reveal it. They and others in the media are part of a plot. They want to continue this fraud for whatever reason. They want to keep it going. They want to protect the radical left.

“They can’t have a great country, and that’s true. You can’t have a great country without free and fair elections. Fraud like this should mean a revocation of their licenses. They use our public, multibillion dollar in value airways for absolutely no money. They pay nothing.”

Trump: "NBC and ABC fake news both said that they would not cover this speech…because of the fact they do not like the topic because they know how corrupt our system is… They and others in the media are part of a plot…Fraud like this should mean a revocation of their licenses."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2026-07-17T01:30:18.184Z

First of all, while it is relatively rare to decline a presidential request for airtime, it is not unprecedented. Presidents Obama and Biden also had time requests refused. But that didn’t cause them to whine petulantly that it was a plot against them, or that the media wanted to protect a corrupt system. Nor did it result in hostile threats to revoke the broadcast licenses of the networks that failed to obey Dear Leader.

It’s interesting that in his speech Trump only criticized and threatened ABC and NBC specifically. CBS, which is now owned by Trump-friendly billionaires David and Larry Ellison, didn’t air the whole speech either, but for some reason their license wasn’t threatened. And by the way, national broadcast networks don’t actually have federal licenses to revoke. So once again, Trump doesn’t have the slightest idea what he’s talking about.

[UPDATE: Trump’s threat that “Fraud like this should mean a revocation of their licenses,” is being carried out by his FCC boss, Brendan Carr, who now says he he is considering penalties for ABC because they didn’t carry his Voter Suppression infomercial live]

The rambling and self-serving dishonesty of the rest of Trump’s speech (here on YouTube, for those with strong stomachs) justified the networks’ decisions to pass on it. It took Trump five minutes to stumble through lies about his alleged “accomplishments” before he got to the promised topic of the speech: election integrity. Then he devoted the next 20 minutes lying about having released documents that supposedly prove his election conspiracy theories. They don’t.

Most of those documents, that he described as “brand new and irrefutable” are neither. And they don’t contain any verifiable information not previously known. He even accused his own staffers of withholding intelligence data from him in his intel briefings about China’s alleged efforts to disrupt U.S. elections.

Arguably the worst thing that Trump claims to have “discovered” is a couple hundred thousand voter registrations, out of hundreds of millions, by non-citizens. But he didn’t identify a single incident of any non-citizen who actually voted. And even those registration numbers are wildly inflated by immigrants who properly registered after becoming citizens, but whose records weren’t up to date in the federal study that Trump cited.

In the last three minutes of the speech Trump finally got around to what is his real objective, which is to undermine confidence in U.S. elections and to pass his so-called “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act). He made an impotent demand that it be passed by the GOP-controlled Senate, that doesn’t have the votes even among their own party. Trump insisted that the bill is imperative to prevent cheating by Democrats. But he also said that the Democrats’ “policies are so bad” and that their “candidates are so pathetic,” that it makes you wonder why he and the Republicans can’t just beat them at the ballot box.

Trump closed by asking viewers to call their senators to demand that they vote for the Voter Suppression bill. Which affirms that the sole purpose of this speech was to serve as a long, meandering, lie-riddled, infomercial for Trump to convince Americans that our elections are irredeemably corrupt, so that he can corrupt future elections. And on Friday morning he posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, that sums up his deceitfulness, saying…

“Great reviews on speech last night. Big audience. Pass THE SAVE AMERICA ACT!!!”

For the record, the reviews by non-MAGA media were uniformly terrible. Even many reviews by MAGA-tists were decidedly negative due to his focus on phony election issues, rather than what matters most to the American people, such as the high costs of living, and the war in Iran.

As for his claim of having a “big audience,” well that’s just another lie. He couldn’t possibly know since the ratings will not be released for a couple of days. And the expectations are for low numbers considering all the networks that ignored it. But Trump’s fantasies will always take precedence over reality. And his small and shrinking cult will obediently concur.

Karoline Leavitt: Everyone Should Watch Trump’s Speech Because Nobody Knows What He’ll Say

Posted by on July 16, 2026 at 2:53 pm. 2 Comments :

The most media adverse president in American history, Donald Trump, is asking the media (again) to preempt their most valuable, regularly scheduled, primetime programs, to air what will undoubtedly be a purely partisan political temper tantrum by Trump. If they are smart, they’ll say “NO!”

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

Donald Trump Yelling at Karoline Leavitt

While a transcript of the speech has not been provided, insiders are reporting that Trump is planning to talk about election integrity generally, and specifically about his unwavering delusion that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged and stolen” from him. And he is promising to present evidence to support his claims. But if it’s anything like past presentations of evidence, be prepared to laugh your ass off.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Source for ‘Tremendous Evidence’ of Election Fraud is MyPillow Kook Mike Lindell?

In a teaser for Trump’s televised tirade, his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is titillating viewers with the prospect that “The truth is, nobody knows yet what President Trump will ultimately say, which is why everyone should tune in.”

What a brilliant display of showmanship. Leavitt is enticing people to watch because Trump is so insanely unpredictable that virtually anything might happen, and you sure don’t want to miss it, whatever it is. Maybe he’ll confess to being the real Hannibal Lecter. Maybe he’ll shoot an arrow at an apple on JD Vance’s head. Who knows?

The problem is that Leavitt couldn’t be more wrong. In fact, no one is more predictable than Trump. It is easy to plot out what he will say in this address. He will (in no particular order) declare that he has totally defeated Iran (for the umpteenth time), brag about having glamorously renovated the White House and the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, presided over the strongest economy in history, and denigrate America’s ungrateful allies.

Eventually Trump will get around to how the 2020 election was a fraud, and explain why his so-called “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) is so essential to the survivability of the nation. And he will finally offer the evidence that proves it. Never mind that he hasn’t bothered to do that for the past six years. And he lost more than 60 court cases challenging the legitimacy of the election.

What’s more, if he actually has any evidence, why is he going to present on a TV speech, rather than to a Grand Jury or other prosecutorial authority that could investigate, subpoena witnesses, and file charges? Legitimate evidence isn’t delivered via courtroom versions “Dancing with the Judges.”

During Leavitt’s Thursday morning White House press briefing she conceded to knowing what Trump’s speech would be about. And she made a point of alerting the press and the nation that “It will shock you.” Partly because…

“The media has refused to acknowledge that tens of millions of Americans across the country share the concerns of this president about the sanctity of our elections.”

Of course the reason that those Americans – a distinct minority made up of MAGA cultists – have such concerns is that their Dear Leader Trump told them to. Then Leavitt added that everything Trump says “will be backed by facts and by evidence that will be provided this evening.” So will Mike Lindell be there with him. Or Rudy Giuliani? Or Todd Blanche? Or Kash Patel so he can rush off to make some arrests with conveniently assembled camera crews?

Five years later, Trump is still trying to overturn the 2020 verdict. Garrett Haake asks why Trump "is unable to let this go."Karoline Leavitt promised tonight's speech "will shock you" and claimed his election conspiracies will be "backed by facts and by evidence."The Big Lie continues…

— Blue Georgia (@bluegeorgia.bsky.social) 2026-07-16T17:43:20.718Z

Suffice to say that this will be just another Trump boondoggle that he hopes will get some of the attention that is generally given to other phony television reality shows. There will be no bona fide news, other than the news that Trump has humiliated himself again. Which at this point is becoming somewhat redundant. And any broadcast network that carries the speech live is admitting that they just don’t practice journalism anymore.

UPDATE: CNN, NBC, and ABC have confirmed that will not be airing Trump’s speech live. They will air air it in full on their streaming platforms, with fact checking. CBS News ran a Special Report that featured Trump’s speech on low volume on a background screen. Fox broadcast and Fox News on cable were the only national networks that aired the speech in full live.

Mike Johnson Warns the Media of Threats By Communists, But Ignores the Real Threats By Trump

Posted by on July 14, 2026 at 2:37 pm. 0 Comments :

The flailing desperation of Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican confederates is ramping up feverishly as the midterm elections get closer, and their prospects for holding Congress are deteriorating at – as Trump might put it- levels never seen before.

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

Donald Trump and Mike Johnson

The form that the Trumpist retreat is taking is a replication of the “Red Scare” of the 1950s, when Republicans saw communists in every shadow and around every corner preparing to pounce on vulnerable Americans and infecting them with the poison of Pinko propaganda. Trump himself posted a comment on his own personal propaganda platform, Truth Social, proposing to outlaw political thought and speech that he doesn’t like. Just like his hero Vladimir Putin does in Russia.

SEE THIS: Putin Prodigy Trump Calls to Criminalize Democratic Socialism and Deport Its Leaders

Taking his orders from Dear Leader Trump, House Squeaker MAGA Mike Johnson is mow also fear mongering about scary, but imaginary, communists. Johnson’s morning press briefing was a full blown “commies are on your doorstep plotting to kill and your family” tirade. He let loose a blast of explosive diarhetorical bombast warning that the long-fabled “red scare” is upon us, and our literal survival is at stake. He said in part (because in full it’s too tedious and insane) that…

“These crazy little Mamdanis who are popping up all around the country, they are a danger to you and your family. This is not a game…So we are here as the Republican Party to stand on the founding principles of the greatest nation in the history of the world. It is our duty to do that.

“And we’re doing it on behalf of all of you. Even the journalists who don’t agree with our policies all the time. You better agree on these principles because that’s what keeps you free. By the way, it’s what keeps the press free, okay? This is essential for your well-being and your family…We’re arguing whether or not freedom is going to survive…We’re in a war.”

Mike Johnson: "Even the journalists who don't agree with our policies all the time — you better agree on these principles. Because that's what keeps you free."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-07-14T15:19:48.074Z

OH NOES! Not “crazy little Mamdanis” popping up all the place. Never mind that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is one of the most popular public figures in America today. That’s what makes them such a threat to me and my family, in the eyes of Trump’s MAGA-tists.

That’s pretty frightening, isn’t it? But Johnson’s alarm at what he sees as threats to the free press is even more frightening. Not because there is anything rational about it. But because he is so utterly oblivious to the actual threats that Trump poses to the media.

Trump has been referring to the free press in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people,” for years. He has filed dozens of lawsuits intended to punish and intimidate any journalists who dare to report honestly about him. He shepherds corporations run by sycophantic, right-wing, billionaires through the regulatory hurdles that Trump controls in his administration. He has even had journalists arrested for accurately reporting his documented words and deeds.

MORE HERE: WHAT 1ST AMENDMENT? Trump Regime Threatens NYT Journalists to Compel Them to Give Up Sources

Ironically, Trump is the one who is implementing communist-like control over the “means of production” by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government, and defunding public media such as PBS, NPR, and Radio Free America.

What’s more, Trump and his radical, totalitarian, comrades couldn’t even define communism. They just use the word as an all-purpose pejorative to whip up fear in their equally ignorant cult followers. So they call all Democrats – and particularly Social Democrats – communists. But in reality, Democratic Socialists are in the mainstream of American politics. They are responsible for things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more.

It’s not a coincidence that those are among the most popular programs in the nation’s history. And that’s another thing that frightens the MAGA-tists and Trump. It leaves him so discombobulated that he does pitiful and preposterous things like this…

Putin Prodigy Trump Calls to Criminalize Democratic Socialism and Deport Its Leaders

Posted by on July 13, 2026 at 2:37 pm. 1 Comments :

The desperation of Donald Trump is revealing itself in ever more obvious and troubling ways. Despite his notable mental impairment, it is difficult to believe that he isn’t aware of just how unpopular he and his policies are. If were were truly as oblivious as he appears, he wouldn’t be acting out with such frenzied panic as his electoral prospects deteriorate.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

As the midterm elections approach, Trump is escalating his war on democracy. He has installed a political crony, Bill Pulte, in the position of acting Director of National Intelligence for the express purpose of weaponizing the agency in order to obstruct Democrats from voting in November. He is also pressuring Republicans in Congress to pass his phony “Save America Act” (aka Voter Suppression Act) by any means necessary, and for the same purpose.

SEE THIS: UH-OH: Trump Admits that His Phony ‘Save America Act’ is Really Meant to Rig Elections for MAGA

However, Trump may feel that he wasn’t making himself clear on his intentions to subvert free and fair democratic elections. So he took the additional step of posting a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to clarify his his commitment to totalitarian rule. The comment said simply “DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM MUST BE CRIMINALIZED; LEADERS DEPORTED.”

Trump is reacting to the recent electoral victories of progressive Democrats that he ignorantly calls “communists.” But now he has escalated his reaction to an outright advocacy of criminalizing political thought that he doesn’t like. Just like his hero Vladimir Putin does in Russia. The fact that Trump thinks it’s appropriate to outlaw political speech, and punish people with whom he disagrees, should outrage American patriots who cherish the Constitution and the principles it embodies.

That wasn’t the only outrageous commentary by Trump today. He also addressed his war against Iran that he is losing. In another Truth Social comment he raged that…

“The Hormuz Strait is OPEN [but also that] We are reinstating the THE IRANIAN BLOCKADE [and that the U.S.A] will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped.”

So Trump is declaring (for the umpteenth time) that the Strait of Hormuz is open. But at the same time he declares that he is blockading it. And to make matters worse, he announces that the U.S. will charging 20% on all cargo for every ship that seeks to pass through the Strait. That, however. is not keeping it open. Rather, it is holding it hostage. And even though he has no legal jurisdiction to follow through, he issues the threat that will impede trade and raise the cost of all products that traverse the Strait.

Finally, Trump’s dementia is flaring up in a big way. He also posted a comment on Truth Social declaring – without any link to a corroborating source – that he has a “59% Approval Rating.” But it appears that he mixed up reports that were actually of his disapproval rating. There are no surveys that put him anywhere near 59% approval. On the other hand, there are many that found his disapproval at that level. (Click on this tweet for more polls).

You would be really hard pressed to find better examples of cognitive incoherence. It would be bad enough if it were your uncle. But it’s totally intolerable for the president of the United States. And yet, Trump’s MAGA confederates continue to tolerate it. Hopefully they won’t be around to fluff their Dear Leader after the midterm elections.

Fox News Keeps Describing Trump’s Sexual Deviancy, When They Think They’re Describing Democrats

Posted by on July 8, 2026 at 4:36 pm. 1 Comments :

The electoral prospects of the Republican Party are looking pretty dim these days. That’s mostly due to the failures of the party’s leader, Donald Trump, who has wrecked the economy, led the nation into an illegal war with Iran, wasted taxpayer funds on vanity projects, and humiliated the country on the international stage.

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

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

Consequently, Trump is becoming more desperate with each passing day. He knows that there is a strong likelihood that Democrats will regain the majority in the House of Representatives, and perhaps the Senate as well. That would make the remaining two years of his occupation of the White House a nightmare for him, with numerous investigations, and little chance of enacting his MAGA agenda. His approval rating is plummeting to record lows, and he’s resorting to the most bizarre strategies for the upcoming midterm elections.

SEE THIS: Trump Reveals His Midterm Election Theme: ‘If The Communists Get In You’ll Never Fish Again’

Naturally, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is stepping up to do whatever they can to rescue him. On Tuesday night Trump’s former press secretary, Kellyanne Conway (of “alternative facts” fame) was guest hosting the Sean Hannity program. And during a segment wherein she was interviewing Republican Rep. Brandon Gill, the subject of disgraced Maine Senate candidate, Graham Platner came up. Which led to the following exchange…

Conway: I am completely disgusted with the Democratic Party and their candidate, their nominee. But I am worried for the country if they’re gonna continue to stand by their men until they can’t any longer, we may end up with bad candidates, bad office holders, until it’s too late.
Gill: They didn’t have a problem with multiple credible allegations of abuse from multiple women. […] We need decent people running for office, not those who are so transparently scum bags.

OH NO! What will the Democrats do when they learn that Conway is “disgusted” with them? How will they deal with the concerns of Conway and Gill about “scum bags” with “multiple credible allegations of abuse from multiple women”? But most of all, how will Conway and Gill and the rest of the MAGA GOP continue to fool themselves that the “scum bag” they are describing isn’t their own Dear Leader, Donald Trump?

Is it really possible that they don’t realize that they are perfectly describing Trump, who is a well documented, serial sexual abuser, admitted pussy-grabber, and adjudicated rapist? And of course they and the Republican Party continue to “stand by their man” even after it is too late. And so does Fox News. The Democrats, meanwhile, have renounced Platner. Republicans still worship Trump.

This was not the only time that Conway expressed these perverse thoughts about political perversion. In another segment she interviewed GOP Sen. John Kennedy (GA-MAGA), and made similar observations…

Kennedy: This guy is a just a predator. And you don’t want him anywhere near power.
Conway: These allegations of abuse and assault…it just goes on and on and never seems enough for your colleagues across the aisle in the Democratic Party to chuck this guy.

Except that the Democrats did chuck Platner. But Republicans nominated Trump again and reelected him. And they still back him 1,000% (that’s Trump math). It’s a sad fact that there are despicable people in this world. But how they are dealt with tells us about the morality of the rest of us.

Republicans are telling us that rapists and pedophiles and convicted felons are acceptable as leaders. In November the American people can tell Republicans what they think about that. And that’s exactly what Trump and his MAGA cult are afraid of.

Trump Launches Fake ‘Freedom Fuel’ Gas Station Chain to Pretend that He Lowered Gas Prices

Posted by on July 7, 2026 at 3:29 pm. 0 Comments :

During the 2024 presidential campaign, Donald Trump made a flurry of promises that he said he would fulfill on “Day One” if he were reelected. They included ending Russia’s war against Ukraine, revealing a healthcare plan to replace Obamacare, and balancing the budget.

Donald Trump

Obviously, none of those promises, and several others, were kept. He never intended to keep them. They were just hollow pledges of things that he knew he couldn’t accomplish, but was compelled to flagrantly lie because he was so desperate for the votes that he needed to regain power and to stay out of prison.

Another vacant promise that Trump made was that he would reduce the prices on necessities like groceries, housing, healthcare and gas. Instead, prices for those things went up after Trump’s reoccupation of the White House. And especially with regard to gas, the American people were burdened with higher costs directly related to Trump’s reckless and illegal war against Iran.

So what’s a pathological liar to do when he finds himself sinking to record lows in public approval due to problems that he created and for which he has no solution? Well, in Trump’s case, he relies on his imagined prowess for lying. On July 1, Trump posted a comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, that said…

“Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too…I am pleased to announce that a VERY smart Retailer, located throughout the Northeast, is stepping up, and wishing the People of Philadelphia a ‘Happy Birthday!’ On July 3rd, the Freedom Fuel Network will be lowering gas prices at 25 ‘FREEDOM FUEL’ Stations across the Greater Philadelphia Area. This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow. They are doing this because they love the U.S.A.”

On the morning of July 7, Trump followed up his announcement with another that said that “FREEDOM FUEL HAS ARRIVED…lowering the price at the pump to $3.47 for our 47th President.”

There’s just one little problem. Trump’s “Freedumb Fuel” is not a real gas station chain: It is a promotional branding campaign that has fitted a measly half dozen existing stations with temporary signs plastered over those of the real station. Industry analysts noted these discounts are likely subsidized by an outside entity, as standard retailers would otherwise lose money on each gallon sold.

So the whole thing is just another Trump scam. It won’t last but a few days. It’s promotional price of $3.47 per gallon was chosen by Trump to honor himself as the 47th president. Even so, it’s still significantly more than the $3.12 per gallon that Trump inherited from President Biden, and which Trump promised to get down to $2.00.

Just like every other Trump fraud, this one is going to cause more problems for the American people. Gas prices are likely to go higher since the the Iran war is continuing, despite Trump insisting on an almost daily basis that it is already over.

Trump’s solution of throwing a sheet over all of the problems that he can’t solve isn’t going to work. It’s just going to make things worse. And while he may believe that people don’t see through his lies, he will find out in November that he’s wrong.

Trump Himself Confirms that He is the Most Deviant Lawbreaker in Presidential History

Posted by on July 5, 2026 at 3:32 pm. 0 Comments :

In the few short years that Donald Trump has occupied the White House (yeah, I know, it seems like an eternity in hell), he has managed to make effective use of that time to distinguish himself as a fierce foe of the Constitution and the principles embedded in it that define true American greatness.

Donald Trump, Prison

Trump has exploited his position in order to enrich himself, his family, and his billionaire pals. He has pressured his “Justice” Department to persecute his political enemies. He has suppressed evidence of crimes committed by himself and his MAGA allies. He has bullied the free press into sanitizing his words and nefarious deeds. And he has fomented fear among his cult disciples to feed their hatred and fuel their blind loyalty.

In addition to the all of that, Trump has presided over a regime of lawlessness. He issues executive orders that are entirely devoid of legal justification or force of law. He takes actions that he has no lawful authority to take. And he strongarms Congress to pass legislation that is blatantly unconstitutional.

Consequently, Trump has had a difficult time with the courts that review his tyrannical overreach. For example, the Supreme Court, that currently has a conservative majority, just ruled against Trump’s attempt to revoke the Constitution’s guarantee of birthright citizenship. He also lost a case wherein he tried to ban mail-in voting, and another that dealt with reproductive healthcare.

Decisions such as these are driving Trump even crazier than usual. This Trump madness has resulted in his reposting of a tweet by GOP Rep. Abe Hamadeh (AZ, MAGA) on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social.

Hamadeh wrote that “In their desperate bid to to stop president Trump, activist judges have seized power from the president.” He also claimed that it was a “blatant override of executive authority [that] has shredded public trust and accelerated Americans’ loss of faith in our institutions.” Additionally, the tweet included a chart of “Preliminary Injunctions Against Administrative Policies of Sitting Presidents” and called it a “Tyranny of the judiciary.”

Nothing has “shredded public trust” more than Trump and his MAGA-tists viciously and personally maligning any judge that delivers a ruling that he doesn’t like. But the most notable part of this commentary is the chart that shows the number of adverse rulings by recent presidents: Bush: 6, Obama: 12, Trump: 75, Biden: 21, Trump: 169.

Trump and company view this chart as proof that the judiciary is biased against him. But in reality it reveals that Trump is just in violation of the law far more often than his peers. And it isn’t some conspiracy of bias, because many of these rulings were made by judges that were appointed by Republicans, including Trump. And the disparity is profound. The chart displayed a total of 39 adverse rulings in 20 years for Bush, Obama, and Biden combined. While there were 249 in only five years for Trump alone.

Nevertheless, a subsequent post by Trump blames it all on Democrats, with Trump accusing them of engaging in “lawfare on steroids,” and warning that “Our republic will die in a black robe.” That’s the sort of deranged hyperbole that Trump traffics in daily. And on this particular day Trump was in rare form. He posted 105 comments before dinner. Most were exaltations of himself and his work on the Reflecting Pool and other D.C. tourist attractions.

Trump did slip in half a dozen comments warning about “godless communists,” by which he means Democrats. But it’s good to see that he remains laser-focused on what matters most to the American people. And he is keeping busy online rather than wasting more time with the war against Iran that he started and is losing, or trying to resolve the affordability crisis, which he is also responsible for. In the meantime, the nation waits to see what other laws he will break going forward. And we haven’t even mentioned Jeffrey Epstein yet.
