Republican Leaders Call Millions of Americans Who Support the ‘No Kings’ Protests ‘Terrorists’

Posted by on October 10, 2025 at 2:30 pm. 1 Comments :

On October 18 there will another protest against the reign of America’s aspiring authoritarian dictator, Donald Trump. He has the distinction of being the least popular U.S. president in modern times. Which makes it much easier to organize these protests. The last one drew more than five million people nationwide.

King Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

In addition to being profoundly unpopular, historians have ranked Trump dead last on their Presidential Greatness Project. And no wonder. He is a convicted felon, an adjudicated rapist, a serial adulterer, an unrepentant con man, and a pathological liar. It remains a mystery how such a walking embodiment of embarrassment could have ever been elected president – twice.

As the upcoming date for the next “No Kings” rally approaches, Trump and his MAGA minions in Congress have the government shutdown. It’s a deliberate effort to deny the American people affordable healthcare, and to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files that undoubtedly contain numerous references to Trump. If they didn’t, he would have released them months ago.

So in order to deflect from all the bad news being generated by Trump and Republicans in Congress, the GOP leadership is lashing out the American people. During press avails Friday morning they uniformly attacked citizens seeking to exercise their constitutional rights by viciously maligning them as terrorists before the protests have even begun. That’s how House Majority Whip Tom Emmer framed the upcoming protests…

“This is about one thing and one thing alone. To score political points with the terrorist wing of their party, which is set to hold a hate America rally in DC next week.”

Emmer: "This is about one thing and one thing alone — to score political points with the terrorist wing of their party, which is set to hold a hate America rally in DC next week."

Of course. Any expression of dissent from Dear Leader Trump is de facto terrorism. And the people who love their country enough to hit the streets to defend it are called haters. But Emmer was not alone. GOP House Speaker, Mike Johnson, said pretty much the same thing to the assembled media…

“This hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18? The Antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, and the Marxists, they’re all gonna gather on the Mall. We’ve got some House Democrats are selling T-shirts for the event. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes.”

Mike Johnson: "This hate America rally that they have coming up for October 18? The antifa crowd, the pro-Hamas crowd, and the Marxists, they're all gonna gather on the Mall. It is an outrageous gathering for outrageous purposes … all this has gotta come to an end."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-10T16:25:53.228Z

OH NOES! Not t-shirts! What’s next? Red caps, autographed bibles and $1,000 watches? Johnson’s insults to the millions of people who support the “No Kings” protests are beyond despicable. They are vile and anti-American and designed to incite attacks on the protesters. He knows very well that there are no pro-Hamas or Marxist members of the Democratic Party or the liberal movement. And he knows that there is no Antifa organization. But that there are fascists leading his conservative MAGA crusade.

Johnson went on to accuse Democrats of being “afraid of that crowd.” Never mind that many Democrats will be marching right along side them. And Johnson concluded by demanding that “All of this has gotta come to an end.” Is he demanding that the Constitution be suspended so that Trump can prohibit any protests against him?

On the Senate side, Sen. Roger Marshall joined in the assault on free speech and assembly. He ranted that…

“October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We’ll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it…This is all a political show. It’s all a political scam.”

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-10-10T14:41:54.779Z

The Trumpian right continues to allege that protesters are paid by George Soros. But they have never offered any proof of it. And Marshall is threatening the protesters with the deployment of the National Guard. That’s the Trump regime’s way of trying to incite violence, or at least the perception of it for the media. His “hope” that the protests will be peaceful is a lie.

It’s funny that these MAGA-tists are suddenly so concerned about the potential for violence at a demonstration when they are still defending the deadly insurrection that Trump incited on January 6, 2021.

The previous “No Kings” events have all been totally peaceful. And they are pledging the same for the one next weekend. If there is any violence you can bet that it will be incited by Trump’s provocateurs. Just like what he has tried to do in all the cities to which he has sent troops to quell violence that doesn’t exist. He is hankering for a reason to declare martial law. But the people are not going to give it to him. Sadly, that doesn’t mean he won’t do it anyway.

Trump’s Propaganda Minister Maligns the Democratic Party as a ‘Domestic Extremist Organization’

Posted by on August 26, 2025 at 1:46 pm. 2 Comments :

In the process of emulating the authoritarian regimes that he so admires, Donald Trump is executing the very same strategies perfected by the oppressive dictators who have preceded him. He is parroting their domination of government, the legislature, the judiciary, and the media. He has clearly studied the playbook authored by the likes of Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un.

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

Fox News, Stephen Miller

The evidence of Trump’s autocratic ambitions is apparent in his disrespect for court orders, his rounding up of those he considers “undesirable,” his purging of career civil servants who fail to declare their devotion to him, and his punishing the press that doesn’t publish glowingly positive reviews of his every word and deed.

SEE THIS: Crybaby Trump Whines About Getting Bad Press and Demands that the Offending Media Be Terminated

Assisting Trump in this mission to transform America into a fascist state is his Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller – aka Santa Monice Goebbels. As a senior White House official, Miller holds great sway with Trump and directs much of the activity that is generated from the Oval Office.

In his capacity as Minister of Propaganda, Miller regularly appears on Trump’s Disinformation Network, Fox News, to unveil the administration’s anti-American edicts. In his latest harangue Miller whines to Sean Hannity that Democrats are not thanking Trump for deploying military troops throughout major American cities (although only those led by Black mayors). But it’s much worse than that. Miller descends into a dystopian darkness wherein his political foes are no better than violent gangs and drug cartels. In fact, he literally accuses Democrats of being “dedicated exclusively” to such criminal outfits.

“Democrat Party does not fight for, represent, or care about American citizens. It is an entity dedicated exclusively to the defense of hardened criminals, gangbangers, and illegal alien killers and terrorists. The Democrat Party is not a political party. It is a domestic extremist organization. […] the Democrat Party as it exists today, it disgusts me. I do not recognize that party.”

Trump's Goebbels, Stephen Miller, on the Fox propaganda network yesterday: "The Democrat [sic] Party is not a political party. It is a domestic extremist organization."This clip is being promoted by Sean Hannity and Fox social media accounts on Facebook and TikTok and YouTube.

— Brad Johnson (@climatebrad.hillheat.com) 2025-08-26T15:37:58.748Z

It is worth noting that Miller is not an Internet troll spewing garbage political rants to an audience of mentally challenged MAGA-ites. He is a senior official in the Trump White House. And he is accusing the Democratic Party of being the political representatives of criminals and terrorists. Which is a peculiar accusation coming from a top aide of Trump who is a convicted felon, and who has pardoned numerous other felons, including domestic terrorists (See January 6th).

It is also worth noting that the Democratic Party’s registration exceeds that of Republicans or Independents. So Miller’s malicious comments are damning the majority party of the American people.

What’s more, Miller’s choice of words puts Democrats into the same category of slime bucket as MS-13, the Sinaloa Cartel, Tren de Aragua, etc. And by doing so he is setting the stage for Democrats to be legally harassed by Trump’s “Justice” Department, and even to be incarcerated or deported under national security based policies aimed at those that Trump has designated as domesticate terrorists.

Making matters even worse, while Miller was on Fox News, Trump was holding court at the White House and telling the assembled press that many in their own ranks were equally as guilty of being domestic terrorists. Responding to a question about his migrant harassment policies, Trump said that…

“They showed one scene where a bunch of Tren de Aragua guys, or whatever. Maybe MS-13. Maybe MSDNC, Okay? Because to me, they’re worse. MSNBC maybe is worse than Tren de Aragua. Real scum.”

Trump: "MSNBC maybe is worse than Tren de Aragua."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-08-26T17:18:44.037Z

This remark may have started out as an uncomfortably unfunny joke, but Trump quickly changed to a more obviously serious tone. It was not unlike his recent comments wherein he approvingly referred to the many people who he says would “rather have a dictator” than a president. It’s the second time he’s said that in two days. Is he trying to condition his flock to accept him in that role?

Trump: "The line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime. So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.'"

TACO Trump Tries to Blame Biden for the Boulder Terrorist Attack that Happened on His Watch

Posted by on June 2, 2025 at 12:37 pm. 1 Comments :

This weekend there was another act of domestic terrorism in America – this time in Boulder, Colorado – committed by an anti-Semitic extremist purporting to be a supporter of Palestinians. Although, nothing could be more destructive of Palestinian interests than a terrorist who seems to support the hostage taking by Hamas that the victims in Boulder were protesting.

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

Joe Biden, Donald Trump

Many concerned Americans from across the political spectrum condemned the attack in its immediate aftermath. But Donald Trump, too chicken to address the matter, said nothing about it until the next day. Presumably he was too busy to even express any sympathy for the victims because that would have have interrupted the golf game he was engaged in at the time. Not to mention his other pressing duties as president…

SEE THIS: WHO’S DERANGED? Trump on Biden Clones, Transgender Mice, Autopens, and His Own Mental Anguish

On Monday, when Trump finally had time to make a statement about the crime, he unleashed a typically Trumpian load of bile. And naturally, he sought to cast blame on his political foes for a tragic event that occurred on his watch. He posted a comment exhibiting his callous self-interest to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, saying that…

“Yesterday’s horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado, WILL NOT BE TOLERATED in the United States of America. He came in through Biden’s ridiculous Open Border Policy, which has hurt our Country so badly. He must go out under ‘TRUMP’ Policy.”

Most notable in Trump’s response is his desperate effort to cast blame on former President Joe Biden. He resorts to that defamation even before showing any concern for the plight of those who were hurt. And true to form, Trump flagrantly lied about the suspect, Mohamed Sabry Soliman. Trump implies that he was an illegal immigrant by asserting that he entered the U.S. through “Biden’s ridiculous Open Border Policy” an asinine phrase that Trump only uses with regard to illegal immigration. But Soliman is an Egyptian who entered the U.S. legally. And when his visa expired he applied for and received a valid work permit.

However, none of that matters to Trump, whose only interest is maligning his perceived enemies and absolving himself of any responsibility. The untouchable Mr. Trump always insists that he knows nothing about anything in order to distance himself from whatever horrendous affair he’s hoping to avoid an association with, or is too cowardly or ignorant to face. The problem for Trump is that his own team of White House liars sometimes inadvertently contradict him. For instance…

Trump’s own official Rapid Response team posted a timeline for Soliman’s immigration status that shows that he was a legal immigrant with a valid work permit during the Biden administration. It wasn’t until March of 2025, during Trump’s term, that the permit expired. So it was Trump who allowed him to stay in the U.S. to commit an act of terrorism.

Trump has repeatedly said that he would focus his ethnic cleansing …er… mass deportation efforts on the most dangerous criminals in the U.S. illegally. Apparently that means Harvard students who write op-eds for their college newspaper, law abiding fathers with steady jobs and American wives, makeup artists with Latino names, and four year old cancer patients. But he let Soliman stay. And somehow it was Biden’s fault?

And that’s not all, Trump’s senior White House advisor, Stephen Miller, likewise blamed Biden in a tweet about Soliman’s illegal status, even though that was not the case until Trump was in office. And a similar tweet was posted by the official Trump War Room account on Twitter.

Clearly Trump’s interest in this matter is not related to the fate of the victims, the administration of justice, or the welfare of the American people. His highest priorities in responding to this tragedy are to whitewash his own reputation and to slander his adversaries. Which is a pretty good summation of the malignant narcissism that governs Trump’s priorities when responding to anything.

Trump is a Terrorist at War with the US Government, and the American People are His Hostages

Posted by on February 2, 2025 at 1:10 pm. 3 Comments :

The battle for the soul of America has commenced a mere two weeks after Donald Trump was inaugurated for his second occupation of the White House. And the attacks orchestrated by Trump and his MAGA minions are landing like cluster bombs, destroying everything in the vicinity and blowing up innocent people who are only trying to live their lives in peace.

Donald Trump, Fox News, QAnon

The early stages of the Trump war against America have proven to be grotesquely anti-American, and severely harmful to citizens throughout the country. The broad reach of Trump’s terror campaign will adversely impact every American family. But it also takes aim more directly at the civil servants who keep the government running to serve the people who pay for it. These truths have surely contributed to Trump’s unprecedented unpopularity.

SEE THIS: Trump 2.0 Begins with Approval Ratings that Rank Below Every Other President Dating Back to 1953

Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia was interviewed Sunday morning on CBS’s Face the Nation. The discussion included an assessment of the damage that Trump is intentionally inflicting on the nation that he cares nothing about, except as a source of wealth and power for himself and his oligarch backers. Warner noted that the Trump administration’s stated goal is to “traumatize” federal workers, which he is carrying out right now.

“We’ve got chaos on steroids going on. We heard from Trump’s OMB, for example, that he wanted to ‘traumatize’ federal workers. Well, that is happening. And these workers are the folks that inspect our fruit, our milk, our eggs. What happens if they all quit?”

Good question! The problem is that Trump’s atrocious agenda will also traumatize all American citizens, because he and his billionaire klan couldn’t care less and won’t be affected. The craving for trauma was explicitly articulated by the Project 2025 author, and Trump’s nominee to head the Office of Management and Budget, Russel Vought, who said that…

“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected. When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains…We want to put them in trauma.”

Imagine saying that about the people that you expect to show up for work on behalf of millions of Americans who rely on them for everything from Social Security and Medicare administration, to food inspections, to child welfare, to transportation safety, to national security.

The Trump Mafia has effectively declared war on the American government and, thus, the American people. And that war is already seeing horrendous casualties. They are evident in his recent orders to oppress the media that he regards as “the enemy of the people.” He promises to…

Not to mention Trump’s full-on onslaught against democracy and the government institutions that support it by…

And that’s just a sampling of Trump’s two week barrage against America. The latest assault is his imposition of tariffs on our allies and neighbors, Mexico and Canada, that already pose a big risk of “lifting already-high consumer prices at the grocery store, rocking the shaky stock market or killing jobs in a full-blown trade war.” That’s an incredibly stupid move that the Wall Street Journal calls “The Dumbest Trade War in History,” and even Fox News condemned as an inflationary burden on American consumers…

Following the Tragedy in New Orleans, Trump Lies About the Suspect, the Crime Rate, and Himself

Posted by on January 1, 2025 at 12:45 pm. NO Comments :

New Year’s Eve is a time of celebration and hope for a future filled with the promise of peace and prosperity. This year however, for revelers in New Orleans it has become a nightmare due to a horrific attack by a hateful individual. At this time there are reports of ten fatalities and more than thirty others injured as a truck sped down Bourbon Street deliberately mowing down pedestrians.

Donald Trump WTF

While the investigation is in still progress, authorities believe that this was a terrorist act perpetrated by someone who was either affiliated with, or a sympathizer, of ISIS. It’s an unthinkable act of violence that has taken the lives of innocent people for no reason other than pure prejudice and hatred. But as awful as it was, it was made even worse by Donald Trump, who has an abhorrent compulsion to lie about everything in order to exalt himself.

FOR EXAMPLE: Donald Trump Celebrates Christmas with a Flurry of Fawning Tributes to Himself – As Usual

On Wednesday morning Trump took to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, to express his thoughts about the monstrous crime New Orleans. And true to form he couldn’t help but lie flagrantly, while giving himself wholly undeserved credit for his previous lies. He posted that…

“When I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in our country, that statement was constantly refuted by Democrats and the Fake News Media, but it turned out to be true. The crime rate in our country is at a level that nobody has ever seen before.”

Trump’s opening remarks were typically boasts about something that he believes is evidence of his magnificence. Then he lashes out with insults at his arch enemies, Democrats and the free press. But as anyone who has observed Trump over the years knows, none of what he said was remotely related to reality.

Trump began by bragging that he was right about the dangers posed by “the criminals coming in,” directly implying that the suspect in New Orleans, Shamsud Din Jabbar, was an immigrant. However, it has already been reported that he is a U.S. Army veteran born and raised in Texas. And it was Democrats and the media who were right to refute Trump’s xenophobic attacks on immigrants.

Trump also reiterated lies he has been telling for years about crime in America being “at a level that nobody has ever seen before.” That would be true if he meant that it is lower than it has been in many years. But, of course, he’s implying just the opposite. In fact, crime has been declining throughout the Biden administration.

Trump’s post is a grotesque response to a tragedy that he is trying to exploit for his own benefit and ego. It proves that he couldn’t care less about the victims, or their families, or the safety and welfare of the nation. But it is also a predictable response that is a hallmark of his malignant narcissism.

By blaming immigrants for a crime that was committed by a son of Texas, Trump is not only deflecting responsibility from the real perpetrators, he is endangering the lives of innocent people who emigrated to the U.S. legally, as well as those who came undocumented as refugees from violence and poverty.

But don’t try to explain that to his MAGA minions. They are already parroting his prejudice and telling similar lies about the suspect. Don Trump Jr, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and others have already posted false allegations that the suspect’s truck crossed the southern border two days ago. They got that from Fox News, who has already retracted the story.

In MAGA World, the suspect had to come from Mexico. Because to them immigrants are responsible for all manner of evil. That is, unless they are H-1B foreign workers that wealthy corporatists like Trump and Elon Musk need to hire at lower wages so they can fire Americans.

UPDATE: Rather than deleting or correcting his maliciously dishonest post, Trump followed up with a sickly insensitive post-midnight comment preposterously asserting that “TRUMP WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!”

Trump Incites an Attack on the Press at His Cult Rally, Then Celebrates that ‘He’s On Our Side’

Posted by on August 31, 2024 at 12:33 pm. 1 Comments :

There is a unique atmosphere that pervades the campaign rallies staged by Donald Trump. They reek more of conventions of brainwashed cult crackpots than anything resembling a political event. Trump mesmerizes his glassy-eyed audience of indoctrinated disciples with endlessly repetitive tirades filled with flagrant lies and messianic self-exaltations.

Click here to Tweet this article

Trump Charlotsville

Among the standard features on Trump’s playlist are hostile harangues aimed at the media that he assails in Stalinist terms as “the enemy of the people.” His seething animosity toward the press is purposefully included in every speech in order to keep his devotees in a constant state of outrage at what he tells them are “fake” and/or “corrupt” reporters who mean to do him harm. Although he does have his exceptions…

SEE THIS: Trump Thanks White Nationalist as a ‘Great Journalist’ for His Sexist Attack on Kamala Harris

On Friday Trump spoke at another one of his traveling salvation shows. It was typical in most respects with warmed over talking points and pre-chewed propaganda. But there was an episode that erupted that deserves special attention. Not because it was unusual or unpredictable, but because, in fact, it was neither. As reported by the Associated Press…

“A man at Donald Trump’s rally in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, stormed into the press area as the former president spoke and was surrounded by police and sheriff’s deputies before eventually being subdued with a Taser. The incident Friday came moments after Trump had criticized major media outlets for what he said was unfavorable coverage and dismissed CNN as fawning for its interview Thursday with his Democratic rival Kamala Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz.”

[NOTE: The AP article was edited after this post was published. It added that “It was not immediately clear what motivated the man or whether he was a Trump supporter or critic.” And it included a reply from the Trump campaign saying that the campaign “tried to distance the former president from the man and his actions, suggesting he was a Trump opponent.” This article has been edited to reflect this new info.]

There is still more to learn about what happened at the rally. But what is known is that Trump has a deep hatred for the press and that he spreads that to his followers. Trump’s deliberately provocative rhetoric has incited violence on other occasions. Most notably the deadly insurrection and attempted coup at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

While the actual motive is still unclear, it is interesting that the alleged attack took place as Trump was lambasting the media for what he believes is biased coverage. Which by his definition is any coverage that isn’t unflinchingly adoring of him and grossly derisive of his foes. Trump believes that the press should model their reporting after his own analyses of political news. Such as his coverage of the Kamala Harris interview on CNN, that Trump deemed “BORING!!!”…

Also notable was what was going on as the alleged attack on the media was in progress. Trump interrupted his speech to draw attention to the alleged assault. But he wasn’t disturbed by the apparent violence or concerned about the possible victims. Nope. He literally celebrated the disturbance saying “Is there anywhere that’s more fun to be than a Trump rally?” And he appeared to stand up for the perpetrator by informing the bloodthirsty crowd that “That’s Okay. No, he’s on our side.” Why he thought that is unexplained.

So there you have it. Even if this cretin wasn’t a Trump supporter, Trump seems to be cool with thugs threatening the press, as long as they are his thugs. He is fine with intimidating the media as a means of physically enforced censorship. And his flock of feebles will fall in line, as good cult members do.

Regardless of what motivated the alleged attacker, Trump’s apparent support could embolden others to commit similar crimes. And it is likely to be repeated in November after Trump loses the election. Hopefully law enforcement will be prepared to respond appropriately should that occur. And if it does, the leader must held responsible along with his goon squads.

MAGA World Blames Biden and Democrats for the Violence that Trump Has Incited for Years

Posted by on July 14, 2024 at 11:50 am. 1 Comments :

First Things First: Violence in the pursuit of political ends is never acceptable. Those who choose bullets over ballots are not only barbarous cretins, they are counterproductive to their own twisted objectives. Case in point: The tinhorn terrorist who shot at Donald Trump didn’t advance his goals one bit, but he did give Trump the imprimatur of political martyr that he has long coveted.

Donald Trump, Fox News, QAnon

That said, the reactions coming from many of Trump’s MAGA confederates have served only to inflame the division and hostility that has been a hallmark of Trump’s tactics since embarking on a career as a populist cult leader. Their seething animus and warped fixation on vengeance has been turned up to a raging boil. It’s a state that Trump has guided them toward all along (and resulted in the January 6th insurrection), even while pretending that it’s his opponents who are prone to violence…

SEE THIS: PROJECTION: The Creators of Trump’s Project 2025 Say Biden is Plotting to Retain Power By Force

Rather than trying to cool down the rhetoric and find unity in opposition to violence, the MAGA Klan has been furiously blaming President Biden and other Democrats for the loathsome acts of a lone wolf, who it turns out was a registered Republican. They complain that Biden has ratcheted up the rhetoric by accurately pointing out why Trump is a threat to democracy. But they dismiss Trump’s unwarranted name-calling of Biden and every Democrat as “radical Marxists and fascist thugs.” Among the StormTrumpers who have explicitly exploited the shooting are prominent Republican members of Congress. For instance…

  • JD Vance: “The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”
  • Mike Collins: “Joe Biden sent the orders.”
  • Ronny Jackson: “Trump-deranged Left wing LUNATICS that parade around MSNBC and other FAKE NEWS “outlets” demonizing Trump and calling him Hitler are DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE for this violent attack on President Trump’s life!! They have BLOOD on their hands.”
  • Marjorie Taylor Greene: “Someone just tried to ASSASSINATE President Trump. The Democrats and the media are to blame for every drop of blood spilled today. […] President Trump said “FIGHT,” SO WE WILL!!”

And that’s not all. Republicans have also quickly pivoted to make political hay of the event, boasting that, as a result of the shooting, Trump “just won the election.” And GOP Sen. Mike Lee thinks that Trump should be granted immunity for his own completely unrelated criminal conduct in a call for Biden “to immediately order that all federal criminal charges against President Trump be dropped.”

SEE ALSO: Total Insanity: Trump Says the Supreme Court’s Immunity Decision is a ‘Total Exoneration’

The fact that the shooter was a registered Republican is not necessarily determinative of anything, because there are lots of Republicans who oppose Trump. Including many of his former Cabinet heads and administration staffers. But it does eliminate the right-wing blather about an alleged Democratic shooter.

As for Trump, he sent out a message prior to the Pennsylvania rally that promised that “ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE IN ONE HOUR” and that “I could be making a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT that’s sure to strike FEAR into the hearts of our DEEP STATE ENEMIES.” Those are not exactly the sort of comments that precede a peacefully rally.

Meanwhile, in stark contrast to the MAGA GOP, it is Democrats who have taken the safe and sane approach, calling for unity and the repudiation of violence. Everyone from Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and many more have all said that political violence is unacceptable and offered their prayers for the welfare of Trump and the other victims. President Biden himself made a public statement of concern for both Trump and the state of American politics…

Unfortunately, if the remarks by the Republicans above and others are any indication, the MAGA crowd does not appear ready or able to behave themselves. Hopefully they will have a change of heart. And the Republican convention that begins next week will reveal what course they intend to take going forward.

BLAMING THE VICTIMS: Fox News Trump-Fluffer Blames DEI for the Deaths of U.S. Soldiers in Jordan

Posted by on January 30, 2024 at 2:01 pm. 3 Comments :

Leave it to Fox News to grotesquely exploit any and every opportunity to malign President Biden, Democrats, and the foundational principles of fairness and decency that the majority of Americans cherish. Those principles are anathema to the MAGA cult, and Fox News is always ready to pacify their animosity.

Click here to Tweet this article

Fox News, Maria Bartiromo, Donald Trump

Last week a drone attack on an American military installation in Jordan took the lives of three soldiers stationed there. It was a brutal and unprovoked assault that the Iranian backers of the perpetrators will soon regret. Unfortunately, here at home Fox News is taking their “Blame America First” position that they have taken many times before in similar circumstances. It’s a position that they have adopted from their Dear Leader, Donald Trump…

SEE THIS: Trump’s ‘Blame America First’ MAGA GOP Aims Their Fire at Biden Rather than Hamas Terrorists

On Monday morning, Fox’s Senior Trump-fluffer, Maria Bartiromo, interviewed MAGA Republican Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX). Their predictably prejudiced political punditry was rife with disparagement of President Biden. Pfluger attributed responsibility for the attack on what he falsely claimed was Biden’s “weakness.” Never mind that it is Republicans and Fox News who have been purposefully telegraphing a false message of American weakness to our enemies, in effect encouraging them them to launch attacks. But even worse was their attack on the deceased heroes that they were pretending to care about.

Pfluger: It’s the weakness that invites that aggression.
Bartiromo: Well, maybe they’re focused too much on DEI. There’s a concern at the FBI because they’re dropping the FBI special agent requirements in the name of DEI. I’m just wondering if that has anything to do with missing an important drone that just killed three of our heroes.

Bartiromo’s suggestion that DEI programs – Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – played a role in the soldiers’ deaths is straight-up racism. She and her GOP confederates are repulsed by the idea of treating people with unbiased respect. And they regard such treatment as special favors for inferiors. Which is apparently what they think of the soldiers who died and their brothers and sisters stationed with them.

As if that weren’t bad enough, Bartiromo is also displaying her pitiful ignorance by asserting that lowered requirements for FBI special agents had anything to do with this. First of all, even if the FBI is being more cognizant of DEI, that is not lowering their requirements at all. Secondly, the FBI has no responsibility for the security of military posts outside of the country.

More to the point, Bartiromo is blaming the deceased heroes for their own deaths. It is notable that the three soldiers who were killed were all Black. Which probably contributed to her implying that, due to DEI, they were too incompetent to perform their duties properly. That is not only a vicious lie, it is grossly insensitive, disrespectful, and unpatriotic.

Then again, that’s Fox News for you. They are nothing if not flaming hypocrites. Bartiromo and her audience might be interested in what the Fox News Corporate Responsibility Report says.

In addition to boasting that the company is “committed to diversity from the very top,” the report says that…

Our Preventing Harassment, Discrimination and Retaliation Policy protects individuals on the basis of a person’s actual or perceived race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, age, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, family status, caregiver status, sex (including pregnancy status, childbirth, breastfeeding, and related medical conditions), gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, sexual and reproductive health decisions, reproductive health decision-making, hair texture or hairstyles, military or veteran status, political affiliation, arrest or conviction record, union membership, unemployment status, credit history, status as a victim of domestic violence, stalking or sexual offenses, or any other legally protected characteristic.

Gee… It’s almost as if Fox News corporation supports the sort of equity and civil rights that they vilify on the air 24/7. Too bad their hosts, guests, and viewers, don’t know anything about that.

PANTS ON FIRE: Fear Mongering Trump Lies that Hamas is ‘Pouring Into Our Once Beautiful USA’

Posted by on October 14, 2023 at 12:35 pm. 7 Comments :

In the week since Hamas launched its terrorist attack on Israel, Donald Trump has managed to take positions that alternately praised the terrorists as “smart” and insulted President Biden as complicit with the terrorists. It has been the sort of typically incoherent, self-serving ramblings that characterize Trump’s anti-American brand of asininity.

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

However, not content with merely disparaging America, alienating our allies, and emboldening our enemies, Trump has also been directing his diatribes toward our fellow citizens here at home. On Friday Trump posted a video on his failing social media scam, Truth Social, wherein he sought to frighten his cult disciples with nightmarish tales of an impending doom that only he can save them from. Which is a deranged decree that he has delivered many times before.

In Trump’s latest video he outdid himself with brazenly bald-faced lies. And the fact that he was exploiting the tragic suffering and loss in Israel for his egomaniacal glorification makes it all the more repulsive. Here is what he said with all the sincerity and credibility of a poison-laced snake oil salesman…

“The same people that raided Israel are pouring into our once beautiful USA through our totally open southern border at record numbers. These are the same people, many of them, that did a number in Israel, a sneak attack. Same people we have pouring into our country by the thousands. Are they planning to attack within our country?

“Crooked Joe Biden and his boss Barack Hussein Obama did this to us. We cannot let this happen. They may be planning something very very bad. Don’t forget, I’m not making this as a prediction. But there’s a phrase out there: Trump was right about everything. We have to be very careful. I don’t want to be right about this. But people are pouring in from the Middle East into our country, largely males, strong young males. What’s going on over here? Are we going to be raided like Israel was raided?”

Needless to say, not a single word of that bears the slightest resemblance to reality. It is entirely intended to stoke the most severe fears and anxieties of the glassy-eyed cultists who worship him. There have been exactly zero Hamas, or any other Middle East terrorists, crossing our Southern border, which is most definitely not open.

What’s more, Trump’s frequent assertion that Obama is controlling Biden is just a manifestation of an obsession that continues to occupy his feeble brain seven years after Obama left office. And his repetitive warnings of an attack by imaginary Muslim terror cells is only going to fuel further prejudice and potential violence against innocent people.

For the record, PolitiFact addressed these remarks by Trump and found them to be “Pants on Fire” level lies…

“Terrorism experts told us that there is no evidence that Hamas, a terrorist group in Gaza, has militants crossing the Mexico-U.S. border, much less in record numbers. And a DHS spokesperson said there is no credible intelligence to signal a threat to the U.S. from Hamas.”

Furthermore, PolitiFact’s analysis of Trump’s statements over time reveal that 75% of them have been determined to be “Mostly False” “False,” or “Pants on Fire.” To anyone who has been paying attention for the past several years, that won’t come as much of a surprise. But it is nevertheless alarming that such a grotesquely dishonest, sociopathic, aspiring authoritarian is still leading the Republican Party’s race for their 2024 presidential nomination. It says all you need to know about today’s GOP, that can’t even manage to elect a Speaker of the House.

While Fox News Bashes Biden on Israel, Netanyahu Thanks Him for His ‘Incredible Support’

Posted by on October 12, 2023 at 1:48 pm. 2 Comments :

As the Hamas assault on Israel continues, the efforts by Republicans to politicize the terrorist atrocities grow ever more repugnant and despicably dishonest. They simply can’t resist any opportunity to demean America’s mission to aid Israel, even if – or especially if – it means maligning President Biden and other Democrats.

Fox News, Joe Biden

Naturally, The GOP’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is at the forefront of disseminating lies and deliberate disinformation in pursuit of their partisan political goals. They would rather engage in smear campaigns against their domestic electoral foes, than to stand up for their international allies who are suffering a torrent of savagery. Consequently, the narrative at Fox News is that this is all somehow President Biden’s fault. It’s such a ridiculous proposition that Fox News can’t even sustain it…

To no one’s surprise, Donald Trump is thoroughly bought into the “Blame America First” brigade. And on Wednesday he gave a speech wherein praised the terrorists who are massacring innocent Israelis, and turned his wrath on our Israeli allies, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who Trump may have been angry with for showing solidarity with Biden.

Trump’s tirade led to the Israeli Communications Minister, Shlomo Karhi, responding to say that it is “shameful that a man like that, a former US president, abets propaganda and disseminates things that wound the spirit of Israel’s fighters and its citizens. We don’t have to bother with him and the nonsense he spouts.” And Netanyahu expressed his unreserved gratitude to America in general, and Biden in particular, in a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, saying…

“Mr. Secretary. My good friend, Tony. Thank you, thank President Biden, and thank you to the American people for your incredible support for Israel in our war against the barbarians of Hamas.”

It’s notable that Fox News covered that part of the Blinken/Netanyahu summit. But rest assured that it will not likely be repeated on their primetime Trump-fluffing programs. Nor will they air Netanyahu embracing Biden’s support and praising America “for standing with Israel today, tomorrow, and always.”

Much of Fox’s coverage of the Hamas crusade against Israel seeks to preposterously accuse Biden of providing the financing for it. They cite a recent prisoner swap agreement with Iran wherein the U.S. relaxed sanctions of $6 billion of Iranian money that was frozen in South Korean banks. None of that money, however, would go to the Iranian regime. It was to be held in Qatar and used only for verified humanitarian purposes that would have to be approved by the U.S. And now even that usage has been suspended.

What’s more, Fox News further sought to blame Biden for what they called the “lack of Senate confirmed elected officials” in foreign policy and military positions. However, Fox didn’t bother to mention that those vacancies were due to Senate Republicans obstructing the confirmation of nominees that the White House had already put forward.

It’s profoundly damaging to the national security interests of the United States for Republicans and Fox News to be so brazenly disparaging of America and its allies during a time of crisis. But that’s where we are now as the MAGA GOP exerts their unsavory influences on the nation via their MAGA media outlets. It’s just further proof that they care more about their political prospects than they do about their fellow American, or the country, or the world.
