Now don't forget guys. Especially today. It's the 4th of the July. Our mascot is working it hard. And loyal and true and cruel to Trump's cause. Especially with all the cruelty in this new bill, he has some serious barking to do. And yeah, I also have a problem with that cruel thing. Kicking over 10 million off Medicaid. Making poor kinds hungry. Trump playing TACO Time while his 24 hour peace deal turns into Putin lobbing bombs into Kyiv. It's not really a pretty picture. But he is just a dog. And he is just reacting to training and conditioning. Including from me. I've now figured that if I do "x" I can get the pup to do "y". So it's kind of …

Good evening. This is an important public service announcement. If you are one of the over 10 million Americans who will soon lose affordable health care thanks to Donald Trump, here's what you need to know. First, you are a worthless piece of shit. And you don't deserve the health care you have, you lazy working class loser. Second, someone more worthy than you deserves health care. You are a working class or low-income loser. And, no. We have power now. We could give a flying fuck if you voted for Trump. Third, we also have to pay for Elon Musk's tax cuts. How the fuck else were we supposed to do that, loser? You are undeserving. Can you fuc…

Rather than get these things lost in all the other threads about President Trump. It would be better to have a thread dedicated to his legal wins. I don't think any other president could have the world's attention like Donald Trump. Download (80).mp4

I only knew him as Dr. Phil whom I would only very occasionally see in a daytime talk show when in the US. He appeared friendly and was I believe popular. Now no more, in large part thanks to Trump whom he endorsed. Well, no thanks to Trump really, because Dr. Phil was one of his major supporters. 18 months ago he formed Merit Street Media (MSM) with an agenda not all that dissimilar to parts of Fox News. A Dr.Phil-type show was the backbone of its broadcasting. To finance the venture, Dr. Phil went into partnership with another of Trump's glorious army, Trinity Broadcasting which is best known for its Christian programming. Two Trump acolytes. What could go possibly…

This thread is for posting good news about President Trump 😊👍 4ad46213dd1762138fdfcc185f96ea29.mp4

Think for a moment how heinous and corrupt the Supreme courts decision of Presidential immunity is. They took a position that noone knew existed for ANYONE in America (absolute immunity), created it for Trump and made it "retroactive" so that all Trumps actions surrounding Jan 6th AND classified docs would be immune from prosecution. They basically are shielding and protecting him from any prosecution for any of his illegal actions, in any of his indictments, while aiding and abetting his current run for office, The 6 conservative members of the court must be removed from the court and indicted along with Trump for "conspiracy to defraud America"..... This…

I don't think the USA news media will show this in its entirety so I am posting it here. ecfa2c7524dd70554cb7cd1ac535d717.mp4

In keeping with the tradition of June being "PRIDE" month, Taco Don is "coming out"..... but NOT as GAY. Taco Don is coming out as the FIRST AMERICAN DICTATOR, by throwing himself a 100 million + Birthday Military parade, the symbol of EVERY known dictator.... Its Trumps "coming out party", amidst nationwide resistance and protests against his administration and RULE. Someone needs to call DOGE and advise them of Trumps waste/fraud and abuse for his own PERSONAL cause.... Wake up people, watch and listen..... You are all now living in Trumps dictatorship, and it only took less than 6 months.

I find it ironic that yesterday was the anniversary of D-Day, when the allied troops invaded the beaches at Normandy. The U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom and other countries banded together to fight the Nazis. More than 4,000 allied troops were killed by the Nazis. Today, under Trump, with Musk's help, we have alienated all of those countries. Trump appears to have abandoned support for Ukraine, and aligned himself with Putin. My neighbors are moving to Toronto to get away from our troubled country. Indeed, we've become a laughing stock worldwide.

When Nicolae Ceaușescu's corrupt regime fell in Romania, decades ago, the Romanian royals returned from exile and supported transition to an elected government. An interesting video of that history is attached below, showing the lead-up to Ceausescu's execution. There are other videos on YouTube showing the opulent, decedent lifestyle the Ceaușescu family lived within their mansion, in contrast to the poverty, food shortages, malnutrition and high infant mortality rates suffered during his rule. After watching, I thought how the world has changed since then! The hope and optimism after the fall of the iron curtain has been replaced. Autocratic leade…

States bear the brunt of House GOP Medicaid plan We now have an initial estimate of how many working class people Republicans will screw. All so they can pander to Elon Musk and other deserving billionaires who need government help with tax cuts. Meanwhile, the Republicans will argue that these 8.6 million people are just not deserving. How many of these people voted for Trump? It's one thing for Elon Musk to kill the poorest children in the world by taking life saving medications away. Why kill Americans? But the insolent pig Trump is willing to do so in order for Musk and the other fat cats who paid for Trump's Presidency to get their tax…

Did JD Vance secretly bring a vial of slow-acting poison to his meeting on Easter Sunday with Pope Francis? https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2025/04/21/pope-francis-dies-vatican-live-updates/78964761007/

Personally, I think our Nabob-in-Chief is setting his sights too low with this ‘free’ plane from the Qataris. It may be a “flying palace” but it’s still a used aircraft and it won’t get him anywhere he can’t already go. If you ask me, the answer is right under his nose. Well, under Elon Musk’s nose, actually, but close enough. If he wants to stay on trajectory and go where no President has ever gone before, he needs to commandeer the SpaceX Dragon, order NASA to cut through all the red tape, and become the first world leader to land on Mars. If he times it right, he could touch down before year’s end and celebrate his first anniversary in office gazi…

At first, when I heard the FBI arrested a judge for helping an illegal alien, I thought "...Another one of those Trump administration over-reaches...". Then, when I looked more into it, I felt a lot less sympathy for her. It's not the fact that he was still in the country well after a decade of being ordered to leave. Rather, it was the combination with his other, violent crimes, including battery and domestic abuse, which made me lose sympathy. https://abcnews.go.com/US/judge-hannah-dugan-arrested-fbi-allegedly-helping-undocumented/story?id=121161497 ..."Just now, the FBI arrested Judge Hannah Dugan out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin on charges of obstruction — after …

I've yet to see any in depth reporting about how the DOGE firing of 400 FAA jobs and elimination of another 1200 jobs due to the early buyout is affecting air traffic safety. The workers said those jobs were critical for maintaining equipment and air traffic safety in an understaffed industry. Shockingly, the number two at the FAA refused to tell Congress how many of the 1200 were controllers. You can see where this is going. Trump is going to give Musk and Starlink the billion dollar contract to overhaul our airlines and fix the chaos they created. They will ignore the safety concerns and conflicts of interest of doing so, and the GOP Congress will look the other way. Ma…

I’m a Conservative Economist. Here Are 6 Reasons Trump’s Plans Won’t Work. Even on their own terms, Trump’s economic promises defy logic. That is far and away the best article I have read since Trump was elected about why his economic policies will not only fail. Trump's policies don't even make sense. And it's all written from the perspective of a conservative agenda. There's a lot of whining about how Democrats are lost, and have no clue what to do about it. Meanwhile, Democrats are now leading in the generic ballot by a few points. So much for the death of the Democratic Party, which actually gained one House seat in 2024 while Trump won by 49.…

They're dumber than you could ever imagine. Here are some links to right-wing YouTube videos that allow comments on the donOLD/Terry Moran interview. The comments are so dumb it's scary to think these people aren't in an asylum: https://youtu.be/vjon6m7itQ0?si=2e1ueTS8GJxb5VSs https://youtu.be/B-fFeNAS87k?si=dx87dxKXv4MFXIk2 https://youtu.be/gua2JF3Bleg?si=mVmHEWZNzNw2CNJk https://youtu.be/KQuJHy6kYVY?si=WrU4QfdxjJ6hupmP

Everyone in the world wants one thing: to NOT be like our stupid piece of shit Trump. The insolent pig changed the course of the election in Canada and got Carney elected. Stupid pig! Very stupid pig! The insolent pig helped get the Labour Party re-elected in Australia. Sheinbaum won in Mexico before Trump on a mandate for the progress made for the poor - "First, the poor!" and the Mexican working class. But her approval ratings in Mexico are up to 80 % in part because she is NOT the stupid raping insolent pig. She is a great leader. And now the raping loser Trump, who prefers retribution and hate, gets a new Pope elected, with a particular passio…

I was all ready to poo-poo our President's latest idea of giving undocumented immigrants $1000 to take a free plane ride back to their native country. And then I got to thinkin'. 🤔 Although I'm not an undocumented immigrant, I wouldn't be surprised if he'd like to get rid of me too. In fact, as a radical leftist gay octogenarian, I bet he wouldn't even save me a room in Alcatraz. So I wonder what kind of offer he'd give me to go on a one-way trip somewhere warm and sunny? I'm sure Mike Lindell already told him that I never voted for him and I filled out two ballots apiece for Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden and three for Kamala Harris. And Elo…

I am starting this as a new post to pull it back from Judge Dugan on to the broader issue. And my main point is that Trump is a moron. So even on an issue that he should be winning on, immigration, he is starting to lose. This is a gift to Democrats. It is a gift to Democrats because this was a huge unforced error of Biden, Harris, and Democrats. Trump and Chris LaCivita have both broken down why he won very simply: high prices, and the border. I'd add a third issue they ran on, but left unsaid: old Biden. I don't think Biden could stop high prices, any more than Trump could stop COVID. Biden could not stop aging. Arguably if he had stepped out of the way …

CNN — Donald Trump won back the Oval Office and took charge of the government amid the strongest poll numbers of his political career, but as the 100-day mark of his presidency approaches, Americans’ views of what he’s done so far have turned deeply negative, a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS finds. Trump’s 41% approval rating is the lowest for any newly elected president at 100 days dating back at least to Dwight Eisenhower – including Trump’s own first term. Approval of Trump’s handling of the presidency is down 4 points since March, and 7 points lower than it was in late February. Just 22% say they strongly approve of Trump’s handling of the job, a new …

I remember in high school during economics class the teacher pointed at the white board (or was it a chalk board?) and said this board represents our economy. Then he drew a small square in one corner and said "this is how much we understand about the economy". Fast forward many years, even in our current age of supercomputers and market controls, the reaction to U.S economic policy is not always understood well enough. To say that tariffs caused the Great Depression as in this brief opinion piece might not be a sound idea. Jerome Powell admits we can't know where the economy will go with Trump's tariffs. We have to wait. Bill Gross does warn that tariffs might …

This YouTube channel below continues to post far-fetched fictional stories about Jasmine Crockett. Even though the channel mentions in the fine print these are fictional, IMO this bullsh!t should not be allowed. The narrative paints her as worthy yet all of these nonstop confrontations are false. One gets an impression that she grinds all these people to dust when she hasn't. From the comments, one can tell many many people believe these reports are true. A lot of negative emotions are stirred. Again, the above is fictional. I complained to YouTube. Thoughts?
