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.

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.

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

Posted by on February 23, 2026 at 1:46 pm. 0 Comments :

Every public appearance by Donald Trump is an opportunity for him to disseminate another bunch of flagrant falsehoods that are designed to manufacture a fantasy world wherein he is not merely a strong leader, but the savior of all mankind. He desperately yearns to be perceived as the infallible and divinely anointed Messiah of MAGA.

Consequently, the annual State of Union address is a profoundly significant event that has the potential to make or break a president, depending on how they perform, and how the public perceives it. In Trump’s case it is another chance to deceive America with ludicrous claims of fictitious accomplishments, rancid insults aimed at his many perceived political enemies, tiresome repetitions of imagined offenses, and egomaniacal exaltations of his delusional magnificence.

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

Naturally, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is feverishly working to promote Dear Leader prior to his big day before Congress and the nation. And who better than Fox’s Senior Trump-Fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, to spearhead the effort to pump up Trump. So on her morning program on Monday she unloaded this bit of buffoonery…

“It’s incredible to me that it appears to be that the Democrats are so angry about President Trump’s success – he’s been so successful on so many levels and has done things so fast – that now the Democrats are boycotting the State of the Union. Adam Schiff, Mr. Russia Collusion himself, said he’s not gonna show up to the State of the Union tomorrow night.”

Maria Bartiromo: "It's incredible to me that it appears to be that the Democrats are so angry about President Trump's success, he's been so successful on so many levels and has done things so fast that now the Democrats are boycotting the State of the Union."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-23T13:15:45.524Z

Bartiromo is right. Trump has been incredibly successful. At exacerbating inflation; at raising the cost of living for everyone but the rich; at causing healthcare premiums to skyrocket; at terrorizing law-abiding residents of Democratic run cities; at decimating regulations that mitigate the harm of Climate Change; at blowing up boats with potentially innocent fisherman in the Caribbean; at alienating America’s international allies, while embracing authoritarian foes; at undermining the First Amendment and suppressing the free press; and at destroying the Republican Party and any hopes they had of maintaining their majorities in Congress.

What’s more, Bartiromo is demonstrating that she is just as out of touch with the American people as Trump is. She appears to be utterly unaware that Trump’s standing among voters is historically low. On Monday morning CNN’s polling analyst, Harry Enten, observed that Trump is floundering in deeply negative territory.

“Trump’s net approval rating, look at all the pre-SOTU polls…negative 27 points…Compare that to where he was in 2020, 2019, and 2018, in term one going into those State of the Unions…way lower now. The bottom line is this: Donald Trump has never been weaker going into a State of the Union address, according to our CNN polling, than he is right now. And weaker by a considerable amount. [And] Trump isn’t just weaker than he’s ever been going into a State of the Union address, he’s weaker than any other president this century going into a State of the Union address at this point in their second term.”

Enten: "Trump's net approval rating. Look at the pre-SOTU polls. Look at that — negative 27 points! My goodness gracious. Compare that to where he was in 2020, 2019, and 2017 — minus 10, way lower now. The bottom line is Donald Trump has never been weaker going into a State of the Union."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-23T13:35:59.999Z

Bartiromo is obviously taking her cues from Trump himself. He is fervently gaslighting the nation, telling reporters on Monday that “We have the greatest economy we’ve ever had.” But with nonsense like that he’s just reminding voters, who know better, that he is woefully out of touch with their lives. Democrats are likely to be hoping that he keeps telling these lies, because he’s really helping their electoral prospects in November.

As for the State of the Union, there is a respite for those who don’t want to be tortured by another hour or two of Trump spitting lies and rage-whining. As Bartiromo was kind enough to point out, MeidasTouch and MoveOn are hosting a People’s State of the Union. And Kid Rock is guaranteed not to be there.

For those Boycotting the State of the Union, MoveOn and MeidasTouch are hosting the People’s State of the Union. Let’s unite at this live event for an uplifting and powerful purpose. ???

His MAGA-sty King Trump Demands Netflix Fire Board Member Susan Rice – Or ‘Pay the Consequences’?

Posted by on February 22, 2026 at 12:21 pm. 1 Comments :

One of the longest standing and principle planks of the Republican Party platform has been the concept of small government that doesn’t intrude on the liberties enshrined in the Constitution. Sure, it’s always been just a talking point that they often set aside when it wasn’t convenient, but at least they pretended to believe it.

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

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

With the emergence of His MAGA-sty Donald Trump and his cult crusade, even the charade of interest in limited government was abandoned. No president has been more determined to interfere in the affairs of private persons and businesses than Trump. And his MAGA cultists in the GOP are so cowardly (or brainwashed? Power hungry? Stupid?) that they refuse to defy him and stand up for their alleged political values. Nowhere is that more evident than with Trump’s assaults on the media that he frequently refers to in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.”

FOR INSTANCE: HOLY CR*P! Trump Floats Executive Order to Dictate to TV Networks What They Are Allowed to Air

On Saturday Trump was suffering another of his childish temper tantrums triggered by the ravings of one of his favorite fawning followers, Laura Loomer. So in a fit of fury Trump posted the following tirade to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social…

“Netflix should fire racist, Trump Deranged Susan Rice, IMMEDIATELY, or pay the consequences. She’s got no talent or skills – Purely a political hack! HER POWER IS GONE, AND WILL NEVER BE BACK. How much is she being paid, and for what??? Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT”

First of all, Susan Rice is highly respected as a former presidential National Security Advisor and Ambassador to the United Nations. And Trump’s demand that Netflix fire Rice is the sort of unseemly intrusion into the business affairs of a company that would be expected in a totalitarian dictatorship. Which is clearly what Trump aspires to.

Furthermore, Trump’s reference to Rice, who is Black, as a racist is itself blatant racism. So are his knee-jerk personal insults of her as having “no talent or skills.” That’s typical of his opinions of Black people who dare to disagree with him. He is particularly dismissive of women of color, who he regularly maligns as “low IQ,” including Kamala Harris, Jasmine Crockett, Maxine Waters, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, and more.

For the record, Rice is a member of the Netflix Board of Directors, not an employee. Therefore, she was not “hired” by Netflix and cannot be fired. To become a member of the Board you must be nominated, and then elected by shareholders. Consequently, removal of a director is achieved by a subsequent vote of shareholders. In rare cases of documented misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, or criminal activity, the corporation may petition a court to intervene. However, none of that applies to Rice.

Trump was responding to a ludicrous tweet by deranged Trump cult devotee, Laura Loomer, wherein she claims that Rice said that “corporations who took a ‘knee to Trump’ will face an ‘accountability agenda’ from elected Democrats if they win the midterms in 2026.” But in reality, all that Rice said (video here) was that the elites in the weak and complicitous corporations, law firms, universities, tech companies, and media, who kissed Trump’s…let’s say ring, would learn that “Trump is not popular [and that] there is likely to be a swing in the other direction [and that] if they’ve done something wrong they will be held accountable.” As they should be.

Loomer expanded on that nonsense with a series of bizarre allegations that Rice was “threatening half of the country;” that Netflix is “an anti-American, WOKE company;” and that Michelle and Barack Obama were conspiring with Netflix to orchestrate “witch hunts against Trump” via their “significant stake” in the Netflix-Warner Bros. merger.

Of course, none of that contains a shred of truth. Rice didn’t threaten anyone. And the Obamas simply have a production company that makes films that are shown on Netflix. And Rice’s remarks were aimed specifically at elites, who certainly do not comprise “half of the country.”

Loomer concluded by demanding that “Trump must kill the Netflix-Warner Bros. merger now.” And Trump’s embrace of Loomer’s tweeted rant is evidence that he intends to improperly intervene in the merger process between Warner Bros. Discovery and Netflix, on behalf of his friends David and Larry Ellison at Paramount. Which he previously said he would do, then said that he wouldn’t, and now is back to implying that he will.

Trump’s intrusion on the business affairs of Netflix, Warner Bros., and Paramount is not only contrary to traditional conservative values, it is illegal and immoral. Consequently, it is just the sort of nefarious misconduct that Trump would enthusiastically engage in. And his glassy-eyed cult disciples love him all the more for it. But the majority of Americans find it – and him – reprehensible. And as Rice said, Trump and his minions “will be held accountable” when Democrats regain majorities in Congress, and eventually the White House.

CNN Trump-Fluffer, Scott Jennings, Brags that He Gets Paid a Lot to Spew Lies and Propaganda

Posted by on February 21, 2026 at 12:39 pm. 0 Comments :

There is a lot wrong with the mainstream media in America today. It is dominated by multi-national conglomerates that are run by right-wing billionaires who are beholden to Donald Trump and other conservative politicians, and to their own obsessive greed.

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

General Donald Trump on CNN

News enterprises that have endured many decades of political pressure are caving in to the threats of retribution for refusing to slant their reporting in favor of the powerful autocrats occupying the White House. For instance, the Washington Post has taken a decidedly more positive approach to Trump, and even paid $40 million for the rights to the flopping “Melania” crockumentary. ABC News paid millions of dollars to Trump as a settlement (aka bribe) for a meritless lawsuit. CBS News has been censoring their stories, their reporters, and even their late night comedians.

SEE THIS: NICE WORK CBS! Banning the Steven Colbert Interview with James Talarico, Got Them Way More Views

The granddaddy of cable news networks, CNN, apparently doesn’t want to be left out. Which might explain why they keep someone like Scott Jennings on the payroll. Jennings appears on CNN panel shows to add his knee-jerk adulation of all things Trump. His contributions consist mainly of disseminating lies, insulting his colleagues on the panel, interrupting everybody, including the host, Abby Phillip, and exalting Dear Leader Trump.

Jennings was demonstrating all of that on Friday during a discussion of the Supreme Court decision striking down Trump’s idiotic, inflationary, and illegal tariffs. During an exchange with liberal pundit, Keith Boykin, Jennings revealed precisely where his loyalties lie. And Boykin wasn’t having it…

Keith Boykin: That was a very charitable explanation of what took place today, Scott. You should be paid a lot of money from the Trump administration for helping to…
Jennings: No, I get paid a lot of money here.
Boykin: I know you do. And other places too. But you should be paid by the Trump administration for what you said because the reality is that the president didn’t just accept the ruling like you said he did.”
Jennings: Yes, he did.
Boykin: No. He got up there in the press conference today, and he attacked the U.S. Supreme Court justices. He said that they should be embarrassed for their families for making a decision that stood up to him. He attacked them and said they were disloyal and unpatriotic. He said they were disloyal to the Constitution. That’s more than disagreement. That’s irresponsible rhetoric.

WATCH — @keithboykin.bsky.social : “That was a very charitable explanation. Trump should be paying you a lot of money.”SMUG SCOTT JENNINGS: “I get paid a lot of money here.”@cnn.com how proud y’all must be (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )

— The Tennessee Holler (@thetnholler.bsky.social) 2026-02-21T03:30:43.873Z

Boykin was right about Trump’s hostile response to the ruling. Trump not only did not accept the Court’s decision, he explicitly rejected it, insisting that he would try to evade the law by imposing his tariffs anyway via other unscrupulous means. And in the meantime, he went ballistic on the members of the Court, including his own appointees, who had the audacity to rule against him.

Trump suffered a massive meltdown following his humiliating loss in the Supreme Court over his idiotic, inflationary, illegal tariffs.So he posted a series of tediously long and deranged tirades on Truth(less) (anti)Social…

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-21T10:56:44.065Z

Boykin was also right about who ought to be paying Jennings’ salary. Jennings is a shameless mouthpiece for Trump and his regime. No matter what atrocity Trump might be responsible for, Jennings defends him. That includes Trump’s unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, and his refusal to release all of the Epstein files.

Who knows? Maybe Trump is already compensating Jennings under the table for his adulatory advocacy. Maybe he’s getting some bitcoin deposits that are untraceable. Jennings has been considering a run for the Senate in Kentucky, and perhaps Trump has expressed his interest in endorsing him.

In any case, CNN has no business providing Jennings with a platform for his propaganda. That’s what Fox News is for. There are plenty of conservative pundits who are not such pitifully worshipful adherents to the cult of Trump, and who could deliver far more rational perspectives of the conservative point of view than the childish insults and attacks that Jennings specializes in.

CNN should fire Jennings immediately. Not for his political views. but for his hostility, his lies, his disrespect for the host and all other women on the program, and his smug admission that he’s only in it for the money. CNN doesn’t need any of that, And neither does their audience. What’s left of it.

Trump Celebrates the Commission of Fine Arts (All Trump Toadies) Approving His Vanity Ballroom

Posted by on February 19, 2026 at 1:03 pm. 0 Comments :

From the beginning of Donald Trump’s second occupation of the White House, he has made it a priority to correct one of the most consequential “mistakes” of his first term. Rather than pretending to appoint people with at least a modicum of relevant experience, he has made certain this time to hire only the most slobbering sycophantic cronies who would shamelessly kiss his…let’s say ring, and shower him with fake trophies and awards.

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

Donald Trump

That’s why Trump’s Cabinet and White House staff are now comprised solely of glassy-eyed cult followers who exalt Dear Leader as the Messiah of MAGA. They refrain from ever wavering even modestly from whatever ludicrous and/or dangerous initiative that he adopts. They praise him adoringly at staged meetings. Even with all of that up-sucking, he still winds up sleeping through it. And many of his cronies came directly from his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires

On Thursday morning Trump was compelled to post a celebratory comment on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, expressing his delight that he got a unanimous vote approving his golden ballroom that he’s building as a tribute to his ego in the ruins of the White House East Wing that he illegally demolished. He gushed that…

“The Commission of Fine Arts just approved, unanimously, 6 to 0, with one recusal because he had a conflict in that he worked professionally on the job, the White House Ballroom. Great accolades were paid to the building’s beauty and scale. Thank you to the members of the Commission! President DJT”

What Trump doesn’t bother to mention is that the Commission is populated entirely by his own appointees. Back in October of 2025, Trump fired every member of the Commission to replace them with his own loyal minions. Is anyone surprised that they all voted to support his vanity project? for the record…

October 29, 2025: “The White House has fired six members of the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, the independent federal agency that advises the president and Congress on design plans for monuments, memorials, coins and federal buildings. The seven member commission is made up of experts in architecture, art, urban and landscape design. Since its creation in 1910, the commission has reviewed plans for everything from Arlington National Cemetery to Maya Lin’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial.”

February 19, 2026: “The U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, a panel made up of President Donald Trump’s appointees, on Thursday approved his proposal to build a ballroom larger than the White House itself where the East Wing once stood.” […] “The National Trust for Historic Preservation has sued in federal court to halt construction of the ballroom. A court decision in the case is pending.”

Trump’s behavior with regard to the Commission is consistent with his prior behavior to honor himself by renaming Washington institutions, such as the Institute for Peace and the Kennedy Center, after himself. He is also floating more such conceited rebranding, including Dulles International Airport and New York’s Penn Station. And he has already launched Trump Accounts, Trump Visas, and TrumpRX.

These are the extraordinarily vainglorious acts of a malignant narcissist. They make a totalitarian tyrant like North Korea’s Kim Jong Un blush. But to Trump it’s all in a day’s worship. Which explains why he also just hung a massive banner on the Justice Department building declaring that it is no longer an independent agency of law, but the personal firm of defense attorneys for Trump as he battles, among other things, charges of pedophilia emanating from the Epstein files.

Trump is pissing on the Department of "Justice" headquarters to mark his territory.This is North Korea style autocracy.

Trump Posts a Petty and Protracted Treatise on Truth Social About Bill Maher and – Wasting Time?

Posted by on February 14, 2026 at 2:01 pm. 0 Comments :

Donald Trump has just completed the first year of his second occupation of the White House. And now that the congressional midterm elections are approaching, this might be a good time to review what he and his MAGA Republican comrades have done in that year. Let’s begin where Trump began, with Congress passing his so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” that was a gift basket for his wealthy friends, but increased the national debt by record amounts.

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

Donald Trump, Wah

Moving on, there was Trump’s idiotic imposition of inflationary that cost American businesses and consumers billions of dollars. And then there was Trump’s attack on Venezuela, where he anointed himself “acting president.” And then there were the U.S. institutions (i.e. the Smithsonian, the Agency for Global Media, the Institute of Peace, the Kennedy Center, etc.) that he either decimated or renamed for himself. And then there were the invasions of American cities by ICE’s StormTrumpers who terrorized American citizens, killing at least two them. And let’s not forget that he’s building a golden ballroom on the property where he demolished the East Wing of the White House. All of that should endear him to the American people, right? RIGHT?

SEE THIS: CUE TRUMP TANTRUM: Multiple Polls Find that Most Americans Favor Biden Over Trump

On Saturday morning Trump took to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to unleash yet another load of explosive diarhetoric. And true to form, it was a rambling disgorgement of lies and nonsense that can only make one wonder when the guys with butterfly nets are gonna show up. This new unburdening was truly something to behold. So…

TRUMP: "Sometimes in life you waste time."Other times you post insane 500 word tirades on wasting time. #25thAmendmentNOW!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-14T19:22:43.881Z

That’s right. Trump is complaining that “Sometimes in life you waste time!” That’s the same guy who spent his time in the White House for the past year on the vital national priorities noted above. Not to mention his staged Cabinet/sycophant meetings, his obsessive TV hate-watching, his golfing, etc. This particular time wasting was a 500 word diatribe about a dinner with comedian Bill Maher. To which America is responding with a hearty “Who the F**K cares?”

Of course, since Trump is incapable of focusing on a single subject for longer than a house fly will sit on a bread crumb, he littered the rant with some well worn lies about his alleged accomplishments, before retreating back to his familiar whining about comedians who dare to mock him. Seriously…Has any national leader ever been so egocentric, thin-skinned, and infantile?

Trump says that he was upset with Maher not appreciating his alleged “joke” that China would “terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup.” Except that Trump posted that comment without any indication that he didn’t mean it. Just like his comments about taking over Greenland, and abolishing windmills because they drive whales crazy and cause cancer. Trump often claims to have been joking after his ludicrous comments prove to be too embarrassing to defend.

There is also the possibility that Trump was triggered by another bit on Maher’s show where he featured a bunch of “MAGA Baby Shower Gifts.” Such as…

“…a onesie that reads, ‘not an anchor baby’…a doll that cries liberal tears…a baby mobile with the faces of the cast of Fox and Friends…baby’s first blanket pardon…Stroller nuts…a baby monitor that alerts you when your child is woke…autism-free Tylenol…the Venezuelan boat bath toy…a diaper that reads, don’t blame Trump, this is Biden’s mess.”

Trump also made a point of maligning Maher as being “no different than Kimmel, Fallon, or Colbert,” and having such low ratings that “nobody will learn about his various Fake News statements about me.” Except for every one of his cult followers who read this schizoid post on Truth Social.

Trump closed with a typical accusation that Maher suffers from “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” Which is a diagnosis that more accurately describes a condition that Trump and his cult disciples suffer from.

Trump to Americans Whose Lives Are at Risk By His Repealing Pollution Regs: ‘Don’t Worry About It’

Posted by on February 12, 2026 at 1:59 pm. 1 Comments :

The determination of Donald Trump to foul the Earth with fossil fuel pollution on behalf of the oil and coal oligarchs who funnel donations (aka bribes) to him, has been a staple of his political agenda from his earliest days in politics. Even prior to that, Trump was opposed to environmental regulations that were imposed on his real estate properties.

Donald Trump Climate Change

Consequently, no one should be surprised by Trump’s latest efforts to give the toxic energy industry moguls their money’s worth. Never mind what it costs the inhabitants of the planet who will suffer more severe health consequences and natural disasters. Trump’s painfully stupid perspectives on the issue take precedence over science and compassion.

SEE THIS: Trump Declares that ‘The Days of Stupidity Are Over’ in a Stupid Anti Wind and Solar Energy Rant

On Thursday Trump announced that he is ordering his administration to repeal the endangerment findings that have been a part of the nation’s environmental policies since 2009. As reported by PBS…

“The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the president to roll back climate regulations. The rule finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency rescinds a 2009 government declaration known as the endangerment finding that determined that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare.”

The scientific community has affirmed that greenhouse gases are a primary cause of climate pattern disruptions that can exacerbate storms and extreme weather leading to increased destruction, injury, and fatalities. Likewise, it causes many health problems that lead to much higher rates of illness and death. But Trump couldn’t care less about any of that. It isn’t likely to impact him in the few years that he has remaining. So when he was asked about the impact on the American people, he replied just as you might expect someone with zero concern for anyone but himself…

Question: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a cost to public health and the environment based on science?
Trump: I tell them don’t worry about it. Because it has nothing to do with public health. This was all a scam. A giant scam. This was a ripoff of the country by Obama and Biden…They’ll have more money to spend for healthcare.

Q: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a host to public health and the environment based on science?TRUMP: I tell them don't worry about it. This was all a scam. They'll have more money to spend for healthcare.

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2026-02-12T19:01:40.852Z

Oh. OK! Just don’t worry about it, you pansies. After all, it’s all a big scam. And naturally it’s the fault of Presidents Obama and Biden. Trump has previously claimed that it’s a scam by China. Anyway, you’ll have more money to spend on healthcare. Which, of course, is a lie. But humoring his alleged logic, he’s saying that when you or your family do contract serious illnesses, you’ll be able to pay at least part of your doctor bills. That should provide you with some comfort, doesn’t it?

Trump’s proposed repeal of the endangerment regulations will surely face some pushback by states in the courts. California Gove. Gavin Newsom has already made a strong statement in that regard…

“This decision betrays the American people and cements the Republican Party’s status as the pro-pollution party. If this reckless decision survives legal challenges, it will lead to more deadly wildfires, more extreme heat deaths, more climate-driven floods and droughts, and greater threats to communities nationwide — all while the EPA dismisses the overwhelming science that has protected public health for decades.”

“Donald Trump may put corporate greed ahead of communities and families, but California will not stand by — we will sue to challenge this illegal action, and we will continue fighting climate pollution here in our state. We will continue to lead because the lives and livelihoods of our people depend on it.”

Trump has a historically abysmal record of success in court on matters like these. And his arguments for this case are just as bad as those of the other cases he has lost in humiliating fashion. Let’s hope that his streak of failure continues. for the sake of of everyone that shares this planet.

Trump’s Truth Social is Littered with Loathsome Lies – Now Including a Fake JFK Jr

Posted by on February 10, 2026 at 3:18 pm. 0 Comments :

The dedicated propaganda platform that Donald Trump built, hilariously named “Truth” Social, was designed from the start to disseminate his putrid perspective of life in his warped vision of America. The website has always been gushing with flagrant falsehoods aimed at cultivating the devotion of his misguided cult disciples.

Donald Trump, Toilet, Bathrobe

The determination of Trump to construct a fantasy world wherein he is the singularly successful and infallible messiah for a cadre of pseudo-patriots is the paramount goal of the MAGA movement. They are clan of misfits who are obsessed with finding innocent people to blame for all of their hardships. And Trump provides them the emotional ammunition to wage that war. All the while propping himself up on pedestal made of pure delusion.

Among the recent examples of the Trump Derangement Syndrome that he suffers from is the following ridiculous post that Trump made to Truth Social on Tuesday morning. It’s a sorry statement of just how distant he is from anything resembling mental stability. The post is allegedly a re-posting of a tweet by John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. It said in part that “[Trump] has been talking about how to make America great for decades.” And that he is “A true man of principle.”

Of course, JFK Jr. died in a plane crash twenty-five years ago. There is nothing in the tweet that identifies it as a fake. In fact, the profile for the account says that it is “John F. Kennedy Jr. Son of a President. Lawyer. Publisher of George. Voice for truth, unity, and justice. Living bridge between the Kennedy legacy.” However, it also says that it was created in November of 2025. Apparently it wasn’t enough for Trump to tarnish the memory of the Kennedys by renaming the Kennedy Center for himself. He also needs to steal the identity of family.

Obviously the ghost of JFK Jr. did not return to launch a Twitter/X account a couple of months ago. Nor would he have done so with a flurry of ludicrous tweets exalting Trump and a variety of crazy QAnon conspiracy theories. Although a few years ago JFK Jr. was the subject of some nonsense QAnon theories that he was still alive and would be joining a Trump ticket for the White House.

That’s the level of madness that Trump is exhibiting now. And it is on top of his other displays of madness. Such as wanting to take over Greenland, imposing inflationary tariffs around the world, anointing himself the acting president of Venezuela, and deploying ICE StormTrumpers into American cities.

There is a lot more of that flaming bullshittery on Truth Social every day. No wonder the company that operates it, Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT), is a financial basket case that has lost 64% of its value in the past year. And that’s just for starters. What follows are some of the problems that have plagued Trump’s media business…

Trump Media (Truth Social) Falls to Its Lowest Point Ever – And So Does Donald Trump
Reflecting the animus that Trump inspires in America, his scam business venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, is suffering its worst week since it went public a year and a half ago. It has lost a whopping 80% of its asset value since then.

Trump’s Truth Social AI is Woke AF: Even His Own Social Media App Hates Him
Truth Social’s Artificial Intelligence app is going woke. It is actually telling the truth about Trump and contradicting his flagrant lies on numerous subjects.

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

Trump’s Truth Social is Creating ‘Non-Woke’ Investment Portfolios for MAGA Cult Investors/Dupes
The focus of the Trump investment portfolios rests on buzzwords plucked from his political rhetoric. And what could possibly have more income potential than “non-woke” enterprises that pursue the anti-democratic goals of the MAGA movement?

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.

Advertisers are afraid of their ads being juxtaposed with hate speech and other noxious content. Consequently, the only advertisers who are willing to shell out are sketchy scammers, conspiracy theorists, and junk peddlers.

Reality TV President Trump Brags He is the Most Transparent Prez Ever. Real Reality Disagrees

Posted by on February 9, 2026 at 2:04 pm. 0 Comments :

Now that Donald Trump has completed the first year of his second occupation of the White House, it might be a good time to remind everyone where he came from and what qualified him to be America’s commander-in-chief. It wasn’t a career as a successful businessman or a real estate mogul. Because he failed bigly at both of those pursuits.

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

Donald Trump TV Set

The primary of occupation of Trump prior to running for president was as the host of a reality TV game show. He did that for 14 seasons. That’s not a side gig or a hobby. An actual billionaire wouldn’t have time for such nonsense. It was how Trump earned a living. If he were any good at business he would have spent more time engaging in it. His only apparent skill appears to be fleecing the willing dupes among his MAGA cult.

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

With another year under his XXL belt, Trump is now bragging the he is the most transparent president ever. He believes that he accomplished that by running up a score of “press interactions” that exceeds those of his predecessors. Never mind that just bickering with reporters is not the same as being transparent. In Trump’s mind he is an open book. As evidence his Rapid Response Twitter/X account posted a link to an article in Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post saying that…

“Trump has more than doubled his press engagement numbers from the same point in his first term and blown past all recent predecessors, according to new data shared with The Post. Trump had at least 493 exchanges with journalists — including interviews and event Q&As — during the first year of his second term.”

The article broke down those “press engagements,” revealing that most of them (327) were “short question-and-answer sessions.” Only 13 of them were formal press conferences. Which was ten fewer than in his first term. By far, most of his press avails were incidental encounters that occurred while walking to or from a plane or helicopter, in a doorway on Air force One, tacked onto a meeting with a foreign dignitary, or during staged sessions of slobbering exaltations by his sycophantic Cabinet.

So Trump has performed consistent with his reputation as a reality TV clown, and an attention-starved narcissist craving constant coddling. What he regards as transparency is merely presence. Because that’s the way it’s done on Reality TV. Just stay on screen as much as possible spewing your message. Although most of Trump’s comments during these interactions were outright lies, blatant dodges and deflections, or vicious insults directed at the reporters – mostly at women.

The Post quoted White House spokeswoman Liz Huston gushing that “Trump is the most transparent and accessible president in American history.” But President Biden aide Meghan Hayes countered appropriately that “The American people deserve a president to give honest answers and not insults. It doesn’t matter how many times you interact with press if it is all lies and hateful rhetoric.”

Trump set a high bar for flinging flagrant falsehoods around in his first term when he was documented to have told more than 30,000 lies. But he is valiantly striving to meet or exceed that achievement. And so far he is on track to set new records. According to the New York Times…

“In the first year of his second term, President Donald Trump has cited an arsenal of falsehoods, baseless claims and distortions to try to justify significant policy changes on the economy, immigration and deployments of the military.”

The notion that having lots of press avails is what makes a president transparent requires the logical aptitude and attention span of a crack-addled chicken. Transparency requires honesty and openness. Neither of which Trump has ever exhibited. He has refused to disclose his taxes, or his academic records, or his health reports, or his business affairs.

More recently, Trump has staunchly opposed any releases of the files of his longtime friend, and notorious sex trafficking pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. That doesn’t exactly scream transparency. To the contrary, Trump is is clearly trying with all of his might to cover up the dark truths that populate his unsavory life story. But the secrecy that he insists upon only makes him look all the more guilty. An innocent man would have been much more forthcoming, much sooner.

The Clintons Agree to Give Testimony About Epstein – Dementia J. Trump Thinks He Already Did

Posted by on February 8, 2026 at 1:51 pm. 1 Comments :

When Donald Trump was running for reelection, a prominent part of his campaign was a promise of full transparency with regard to the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his cabal of pedophiles. Trump and his supporters – some of whom later became members of his administration – swore that they would release the Epstein files and bring the ring of pervs to justice.

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

Not only did Trump break that promise, he did everything in his power to avoid releasing the files. He lied flagrantly that there was nothing in them that would incriminate him. And he relentlessly sought to smear others without offering any shred of evidence.

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

Among the most desperate ploys of Trump and his flunkies was their efforts to malign Hillary and Bill Clinton. It’s a common tactic on the right to project onto others the crimes that they know they are guilty of. But in Trump’s case, he is so inept that his attempts at character assassination fell flat, serving only to make him look even more scared, dishonest, and guilty.

This week the Clintons agreed to testify before Congress on the Epstein matter. They agreed even though the committee is chaired by the biggest Clinton hater on Capitol Hill, James Comer. Nevertheless, in a demonstration of confidence and courage, the Clintons accepted the invitation to testify. What’s more, they sought to make the hearings public, which Comer has so far refused to do. As reported by The Guardian…

“Former US president Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary are calling for their congressional testimony on ties to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to be held publicly, to prevent Republicans from politicising the issue. […]

“Democrats say the probe is being weaponised to attack political opponents of president Donald Trump – himself a longtime Epstein associate who has not been called to testify – rather than to conduct legitimate oversight.”

By contrast, Trump continues to dodge any accountability for his longtime relationship with Epstein. Trump’s 38,000 mentions in the files that have been released to date (only about half of them) has not resulted in his relenting on his staunch opposition to the transparency that he once promised. Never mind that he keeps saying that he is totally innocent and the files would prove that. If that were true he would have released those files months ago.

Instead, Trump is making astonishingly bizarre comments when asked about Epstein and himself. For example, NBC News anchor Tom Llamas interviewed Trump prior to Super Bowl which produced the following exchange…

Llamas: NBC broke the story that the Democrats are already saying that if you bring President Bill Clinton, and he has to to testify [on Epstein], we’ll bring in president Trump. What do say to that?
Trump: I think they might say that, you know. But they’ve already brought me. See I’ve been brought. They had me indicted many many times. Many many times.

That reply is a unique combination of Trump’s dishonesty and mental impairment. He certainly was never “brought” before Congress. If he thinks that he was, he’s remembering something that came straight out of his warped imagination and has no resemblance to reality.

Furthermore, Trump’s reference to having been indicted is equally ridiculous. None of his indictments led to any testimony. And he has never been asked to respond to anything related to Epstein under oath. He didn’t testify at all in the “hush money” case where he was convicted of 34 felonies. And the other crimes for which he was indicted were never brought to trial after the Supreme Court granted him immunity for virtually any crime that he had committed, or would commit in the future.

So to summarize, Americans can make up their own minds about the Epstein investigations and Trump’s involvement. Here is what all three of these people have said about it in the past few days…

  • Bill Clinton: Let’s stop the games + do this the right way: in a public hearing.
  • Hillary Clinton: If you want this fight…let’s have it in public.
  • Donald Trump: I think it’s really time for the country to maybe get onto something else, now that nothing came out about me.

Who do you believe?
