If you saw a recording of Trump’s explanation for placing a 90 day pause on his moronic tariffs, I hope you had as great a laugh as I did. First, he was definitely lying. However, his explanation, although it was a lie, was so convoluted and moronic, I was forced to reevaluate my opinion about his intellect. It is clear that your illegitimate president, Dumbass Trump, is dumber than a bag of rocks. Or maybe not. The stock market crash was followed by a record surge when on Wednesday Trump announced a 90-day delay in the implementation of his tariffs, with the exception of China. Anyone who purchased stocks at their lowest point made billions when Trump placed a moratorium on his tariffs. Is this fraud? Is this stock price manipulation. Trump and his oligarchs must be fully investigated, but will it happen? America has become a nation without laws for the rich and powerful. Was the tariff situation a ‘smokescreen,’ and if so, will an obvious act of insider trading be ignored by the most...

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...

Trump and his first administration were incompetent, ignorant, unqualified, arrogant, losers, and nothing more than pretenders. If you remember how horrific they were and how badly they failed their responsibilities, you are beginning to experience “Trump 2.0.” First, a personal comment. In my 78 years I have learned that great wealth and intelligence are not synonyms. Most of our nation’s 813 billionaires are men and women who had one talent, but fail to have a general knowledge about anything else, and have absolutely no common sense. That said, the orange buffoon’s second administration is filled with billionaires and wannabes. Politicians like Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and Tulsi Gabbard failed to perform in their first jobs, and are now taking their incompetence to the executive branch. It is laughable that a complete airhead like Gabbard is now your Director of National Intelligence. I doubt she is able to spell ‘intelligence.’ Noem is the Secretary of Homeland Security. This is a...

If you are a low-income or poor America who will soon appear in a court of law, you will find justice is swift and brutal. However, if you are rich, and/or powerful and face similar charges, your case may not come to trial for years, and the outcome is likely predestined. The Sixth Amendment in the United States Constitution guarantees the right to a speedy trial in all criminal prosecutions. This sounds good, but the truth is this amendment offers the rich and powerful more ways to escape a fair trial and to never be punished for their crimes. The best lawyers in America are also the most expensive. Our nation’s justice system is similar to the Income Tax Code. The Tax Code is composed of 6,871 pages. With the exception of about 200 pages the remainder offers ways for the wealthy to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. Our justice system allows the rich and powerful to manipulate the law. Not a single one of these privileged Americans has ever been fairly punished for his or her cr...

Hey dumbasses: Social Security is not an entitlement: it is our money. I hope every right-wing politician reads this. Someone needs to inform these morons of the facts. In August of 1935, the greatest president in history signed a bill making Social Security a reality. Every American worker, and their employers would contribute to a retirement fund. It was perfect. Social Security would not receive funding from the general fund. It would be fully funded by individuals, and the amount of money received at retirement age would be based on the amount of money contributed by each individual worker and his or her employer. If Social Security is under-funded today, the fault clearly lies with our incompetent and corrupt government. In 2017 Trump chose billionaire Wilbur Ross to be his Secretary of Commerce. His only qualification involved Trump’s puppeteer, Vladimir Putin. Ross had been the President of the Bank of Cyprus. The bank was owned by Putin. This year Trump chose billionaire Howard...

The Democratic Party is filled with cowards. However, 10 Democratic Senators displayed a distinctively higher level of cowardice last week when they voted for Republican’s terrible and destructive budget. Their act of waving a white flag prevented a government shutdown. Democrats are now calling for a vote to remove Chuck Schumer from his leadership role, and I agree. Schumer and Pelosi surrendered their power to fake Republicans and Trump over and over again. Real Americans need a determined, and strong leader who will do the right thing and say “fuck you” to Trump and his Nazi followers. Democrats reached their lowest level in October of 2016 after a meeting in the Oval Office with President Obama, Vice-President Biden, and the leaders of both parties, Schumer, Pelosi, Moscow Mitch McConnell, and Paul Ryan. The meeting was held at the request of all 18 national security agencies. It was confirmed that Vladimir Putin was interfering in our upcoming election in support of his puppet, D...

  Trump will no longer be forced to accommodate  his most avid supporters, who in private he refers to as “basement dwellers.” He will now be surrounded by his 756 billionaire supporters, who are more accurately known as oligarchs. Trump has never been a legitimate billionaire. Like the rest of his life, his wealth was an illusion. He “cooked the books” in his favor throughout his failed efforts to become a legitimate businessman. When taxes were due, he deflated the value of his real estate holdings, each of which was deep in debt. When he needed a loan from Deutche Bank, or other large lending institutions, he inflated the value of his holdings. His controversial victory on November 5, 2024 offered him another opportunity to play the role of a billionaire. Trump said many times that “he loves using other people’s money.” During his first illegitimate presidency, he wasted more than six million taxpayer dollars every month. That’s more than one-quarter of a billion dollars ov...

It’s pitiful, but undeniably true. If this was an accurate description of my life, I would have committed suicide long ago. After researching Donald Trump for the last ten years, I know that your illegitimate president’s entire life’s story is built on lies. To this day, if his lips are moving, he’s lying. It was easy to learn that Trump’s educational history is manufactured, not earned. If this is untrue, why in 2017 did the old, obese, white man have all records related to his education sealed? I know from reading and watching the lowlights of his rallies that he never earned his diploma from Wharton and the same is undoubtedly true about his graduation from military boarding school. As he did to obtain deferments from serving in the Vietnam War, father Fred most certainly paid for his diplomas. Trump is virtually illiterate, refusing to or incapable of reading. His attention span is less than five minutes. Do you remember when he was in the Oval Office, on a rare occasion, engaged i...

Trump’s first action, after lying to God and the American people without his hand on the bible, was to take a huge dump on the Constitution and the graves of every soldier who fought bravely in WWII to save the world from fascism. Trump pardoned the leader of the Proud Boys and commuted the sentence of the leader of the Oath Keepers, the two leaders of Neo-Nazi groups who helped him plan and execute the attempted coup on January 6. This proves once and for all that Trump is the official leader of the Neo-Nazi movement in America, men and women whose ultimate goal is to overturn the government of the United States of America, and hand the reigns over to Vladimir Putin. Not a single Trump supporter can continue their denial that Trump is a Russian agent. By association and their brazen support for Trump, we can now confirm that all 756 billionaires in our nation are Nazi sympathizers, including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg. We can also justify our suspicions that all leader...

        In the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence, our Founding Fathers laid the groundwork for what would be the Constitution of the United States of America. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.-“ The men who created the United States of America were in denial, ignoring their own failures to “put their money where their mouths were.” Most of them owned slaves, and obviously did not consider them equal to white men and women. When framing the Constitution between 1787 and 1789 during the Constitutional Convention, an agreement was made to protect the practice of owning slaves, primarily in the southern states. The Second Amendment was written for two reasons. First, to guarantee the availability of organizing an a...
