Trump Uses Taxpayer Dollars to Pay for His Lies

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

America’s greatest criminal is at it again. The government shutdown is solely the responsibility of Trump and his fascist party. They control all three branches of government, and today, Trump’s Senate rejected a measure to prevent another fiscal disaster for working-class Americans.

Trump is in control of everything that happens in Washington today. He is the reason only the most corrupt and useless members of our federal government will continue to receive their paychecks and benefits after September 30. Those who actually work in Washington will struggle to pay their mortgages and other necessities.

The malignant narcissist defiling our White House is desperate to prevent the truth from being told by his mainstream media. A misinformation effort is underway attempting to blame Democrats for another failure.

[A bright red banner and pop-up message that appeared Tuesday on the Department of Housing and Urban Development's website warns: "The Radical Left are going to shut down the government and inflict massive pain on the American people unless they get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands. The Trump administration wants to keep the government open for the American people.]

Trump is using taxpayer dollars to pay for his fallacious propaganda.

The midterm elections appear to lean towards Democrats and independents taking control of both houses of Congress. The facts prove that Trump and his party are failing all 340 million Americans. Our nation’s greatest traitor is desperate. He will say and do anything to convince uninformed Americans that his party is not to blame for the shutdown.

Remember the facts. Those who fail to perform the jobs for which they were elected will receive another paid vacation, with full pay and benefits. Members of the House of Representatives, the Senate, Supreme Court Justices, and Trump, Vance, and his corrupt and incompetent administration will continue to receive taxpayer money while doing nothing for the American people.

My friends, our country is a fucking mess, and the situation will only become worse with Trump in control of the lives and future of all 340 million people.

The Real Victims in the Trump Saga

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s defense strategy has changed, slightly. He claims that all of his legal battles are founded in political strategy, created by his enemies. He is playing the role of a victim. I guess part of Trump’s decline in mental acuity is a severe loss of memory. He appears to forget that many of the crimes he is accused of began long before he made the mistake of seeking the presidency. Others, including his insurrection on January 6, and stolen classified documents are actions witnessed by every American. We are not falling for your bullshit, Donnie Boy. THE REAL VICTIMS A brief look at Trump’s history reveals a life of crime. From bribing public officials, and refusing to pay contractors, to allegations of physical, sexual assault, the orange buffoon left a long trail of victims. As your illegitimate president, he violated the basic human rights of thousands. According to medical experts, Trump’s failure to take timely action to prevent an oncom...

Aileen Cannon: A Corrupt Judge Appointed by a Lifelong Criminal

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Aileen Cannon is a federal judge, appointed by Donald Trump. She has been charged with one of the most important cases involving Trump’s life of crime; his theft of classified documents when he was evicted from the White House on January 20, 2021. Yesterday she gave Trump a gift by delaying his upcoming trial. The events which followed prove that he violated the Espionage Act of 1917. He is also guilty of lying to the FBI, a federal crime. Before the raid on Mar-a-Lago, when they discovered boxes of national secrets hidden throughout the millionaire’s playpen, he claimed that he had returned all of them. TRUMP AND HIS SUPPORTERS: LIES, MISDIRECTION, BASELESS ATTACKS You might have noticed that Trump, his failed party, and his supporters constantly lie about everything. There is undeniable proof that the only attempted fraud in the 2020 election can be attributed to Trump supporters. The 91 indictments against Trump are not a “witch hunt:” I have ...

“The Economy is in ‘Pretty Good Shape?’”

Image
Bessent is not quite a billionaire, yet, but he is a perfect example of how ignorant Trump’s administration is. Scott Bessent is Trump’s unqualified Treasury Secretary. He is not one of the billionaires on Trump’s cabinet, but he is worth 521 million dollars. This one fact prevents the old, white man from understanding what it is to be a real American in the 21 st century. What they're saying: "There is a little uncertainty, but in general, the companies I've spoken to, CEOs, who have come into Treasury tell me that the economy is very solid," Bessent said at a conference hosted by the American Bankers Association. Really? Nobody asked me. I can offer you one fact, one example of how ignorant this Trump stooge actually is. My wife and I worked for about 40 years each. We chose our professions badly. The only retirement income we have is what we paid for: our Social Security. In January we received a 2.5 percent increase in our monthly checks. However, the cost of nec...
