Trump thinks he should be lauded for everything - that's how weak his ego! If Trump thinks by deploying troops in the cities of America in preparation of a military takeover, it is going to massively backfire!!

Pam Bondi is just as huffy as her boss: they both share extremely brittle egos
Simply stunning!
There were also people that believed injecting bleach into the veins would cure Covid-19 - this is the type of people that are running the show!
Thanks to Trump and RFK Jr. the CDC is now an irrelevancy, having no real concern for public health!
The U.S. is going to have to dispense with a corrupted, and egocentric CDC, and create an independent agency that is comprised of doctors and scientists that are focused on providing 'real' health initiatives for the American People!
It is a wonder of wonders why RFK Jr. was considered for the post of Secretary of HHS in the first place - he knows absolutely nothing about medicine, and is a direct threat to well-established protocols!
John McCain was a true American!
The problem is that the U.S. Supreme Court has regarded Donald Trump as a king - the Constitution says he is not!
The sacking of Gov. Lisa Cook is actionable! She must therefore sue for redress!
Pam Bondi, and the remade DOJ are no defenders of the Constitution and the Law! However, the world is watching, and this DOJ will have to adhere to the law in this case, for the sake of appearances!
Thank goodness for mathematics, and the scientific method!
Hear! Hear!
Stupid is as stupid does!
The hope is that other governors follow Gov. Pritzker's example!
Trump can't move to a wartime economy unless he gains control of the financial institutions.
Greed knows nothing higher than itself!
The Trump Government is a hotbed of corruption - full stop!
Abrego Garcia's case is being adjudicated in a legitimate court of law: and is pending! Under what corrupted vehicle of law does the DOJ supercede Garcia's right under the Constitution to be fairly tried? Nothing less than obstruction by the DOJ; which is visible to the world!
The FBI is now Donald Trump's personal police force!
What a farce! Here you have the FBI, at the behest of Donald Trump, trying to fit him up for exercising his First Amendment Rights!
There is no question the Justice Department (ICE) in its irrationality will attempt to flog a dead horse!
The punitive damages will be considerable!
Tragically, Putin is not interested in a ceasefire, & he is counting on Trump to put pressure on Zelensky to cede land to him - which as everyone knows is a non-starter. As regards security guarantees, there is no such thing when it comes to Putin, unless from a position of demonstrable strength!
A prerequisite to talks is establishing a cease-fire deal; however, Neither Trump or Putin have shown a willingness to seriously discuss the matter. Another point of contention is establishing a security guarantee, which short of a NATO Article 5 guarantee, makes no sense whatsoever. Doomed to fail!
Trump has this delusional belief that he has influence over Vladimir Putin, when in fact Putin cares nothing for Trump, and regards him as a fool who he can manipulate very easily!
What a shit job these 'law enforcement' officers have rounding up American citizens on a remote pretext of law. They would have more dignity working for a sanitation department where shit doesn't pretend to be anything more than what it is!
When diplomats meet with their counterparts they have some understanding who they are dealing with. Trump on the other hand, has no reality of who Putin is. His meeting with Putin was nothing short of a damp squib - not even worth reporting in the news!
The 6 Members of the U.S. Supreme Court will accede to whatever Trump wishes, regardless of the Constitution and the Law! Need I have to remind people of what has already happened!
This may be a prelude to Martial Law!
Trump will have his golden toilet, but Americans will not see any gold!
With ridiculously high tariffs the U.S. will lose trading partners. Also, those companies that are paying their import duties, and passing them onto the U.S. consumer will eventually price themselves out of the market, & may face having to close their businesses. The result a downturn economically!
An evil heart can do no other!
My painting WISCONSIN FARM
This took me a few tries as it is not an easy thing for to soeak about. However, it feels necessary as this administration begins to erase us from history, and once again, play the victim of some giant “hoax”. I mispronounce Maxwell’s name, but this take was as good as I could get
It's all well and good to talk about preserving democracy, but steps must be taken to actively prevent the gerrymandering that is taking place in Texas. An independent commitee needs to be formed to prevent the violation of the Voting Rights Act!
These are clear violations of the Constitution! These are impeachable offences: crimes against the state! The problem of course is that the autocrat has the Congress, and the U.S. Supreme Court in his back pocket!
This tells you a lot about the speaker: to refer to a woman as a host body is a form of objectification of a human being; whereas, a foetus is just that! From a medical standpoint the foetus has the potential of being a human being depending upon its viability; but the mother's rights are greater!
Beautifully expressed image!
In 1994 Madelein Albright (Ambss. to U.N.) sat on her hands debating the definition of genocide during the Rwandan murder of millions, which was clearly a genocide! Unfortunately, there is a tendency to view these sitiuations with moral relativism, when infact genocide is obvious to the world!
It would be interesting to examine Greg Abbott's 'civil arrest warrants': the nature of the charges,& its particulars. It would appear voters will be disenfranchised as a result of Abbott's redistricting scheme in violation of the VRA. An independant commission is required to look into this scheme!
As businesses go bankrupt owing to these high tariffs there will be a severe downgrade of commerce within the United States. This will affect the tax base & the government's ability to pay down the bebt. Furthermore, there will be a contraction of business internationally in the loss of the dollar!
These six justices advocate reducing the United States to an autocracy. They have provided a path for Donald Trump to rule by edict with impunity, and in so doing have violated their own allegiance to the Constitution!
The Global Economy is here to stay, and the Trump government is disconnecting itself from that economy. This will not lead to greater manufacturing within the United States as the burden on companies will outstrip the GNP with further national debt that cannot be made up!
Be minded to know that if the police handcuff you, you are under arrest. If the police should do this without charging you, and do not Mirandize you, it is effectively a false arrest! If during a false arrest the police rough you up, you may sue the police for false arrest, and assault and battery!
There is a supply chain between Windsor and Detroit in the manufacture of auto parts. Needless to say, the tariffs have impacted that relationship, and will continue as long as these punitive tariffs remain in place.
Hardly surprising!
Ghislaine Maxwell's commute to a less restrictive prison in Texas is likely a move in preparation to commute her sentence; or, perhaps there is a pardon in the offing!
Charlie Kirk speaks from the top of his head: his arguments are ad hominem! For e.g. at the Oxford Union his knowledge of birthright citizenship in the U.K. is lacking. During the British Raj Indians were given British citizenship & many moved to the U.K. in the 1960s during the troubles there.
Import taxes are going to cripple the United States, & there is no rhyme or reason for imposing ridiculous tariffs. Canadian cross border shopping, & tourism is down, which is further compounds the problem; while Canada is diverting trade to other countries in response to these punishing tariffs!
To slag-off and undermine the Press is a device autocrats use to achieve power, and rule over the People!
So true!
How about Pam Bondi pay attention to the rank violations to judicial review, & the increasingly wholesale violations of individual civil rights by masked & and unidentifiable police/polizei who are operating with the full carte blanche of the Department of Justice - how about that for consideration!
One has to be dead to all right feeling to believe there is no genocide occurring in Gaza!
God's will exist in good people's hearts, and not in the scriptures, which is often used to justify their evil doings!
It is obvious that Todd Blanche was sent to speak with Ghislaine Maxwell in order to seal off any possibility of information coming out that might involve Donald Trump's involvement with Jeffrey Epstein! Moreover, there may well be a deal going on promising a pardon in the near future.
This is reminiscent of the horrors of the Nazi death camps. It must be emphasised, the people that are caught up in the conflict are human beings!
They may attempt to put 'lipstick on a pig', but Ghislaine Maxwell still remains a sex trafficker, and a rapist of children, along with many other notables who are yet to be discovered!
Point taken!
Fact-checking Trump is an endless job!
The apple doesn't fall from the tree. Ghislaine Maxwell is the daughter of Robert Maxwell; now deceased, who was the owner of the Pergamon Press, who sold the business involving 'skulduggery', when he ended up very rich indeed!
In the Jeffrey Epstein case, the authorities are using reverse psychology in order to manipulate the results. That is to say, they advocate releasing the documents, when in fact they have no intention of doing so. Their purpose is to have YOU (sic) rely on their action, or more accurately non-action
In the case of a false arrest, which it clearly was, one is legally entitled to resist, & obstruction has no legal basis. However, though it is a person's right to resist, the police can do a lot of damage. Equally, one can sue for the false arrest, & for assault & battery, which was the case here!
There are so many violations of his Civil Rights here, one hardly knows where to begin! If he was arrested for not having his lights on is not an arrestable offence: there are no 'Daytime Running Lights' in the U.S.! He was not cautioned - hence; a false arrest! The police don't know the law!!
The suppression of files relating to sexual trafficking and rape of (young underage) women is a serious crime! know that the Jeffrey Epstein files will never come to light, as it will reveal individuals in high station who are protected by a corrupt government!
The fix is in!
Every dictator in history is an elitist, and needs scapegoats in order to wield power!
It's surprising he hasn't received the Peace Prize already!!
Not could be; will be devastating!
The very character of America is changing in a positively evil direction!
Tom Homan is recommending that people may have to get their health care whilst in detention, and that is a positive thing!
When the Republicans give massive tax breaks to the rich, they can no longer use the rationale of: 'Supply-side'/'Trickle-down' economics! This system of economics never worked for the population and never will, as it benefits the rich only!!
The U.S. Government will then have the means to build many more 'detention facilities': aka - Concentration Camps!
Just as the Industrial Revolution brought with it abuses, so will Artificial Intelligence; and it will be the job of government, or more precisely the People, to institute safeguards against such abuses!
Should the 'BBB' Bill pass, which it is likely to do, it is going to get extremely ugly in the United States - you couldn't pay me enough to live or visit there!
The super-rich have a free ride: they don't pay taxes!
If the super-rich paid taxes, it would wipe out the U.S. debt!!!
The very fundamentals of science is to seek and understand truth; and, it has no bearing on ego or monetary gain. It may be that our present understanding of the universe is flawed, and science demands constant reassessment of what facts may be discovered, even if it means going back to zero!
When the corrupt members of SCOTUS start stripping away the Constitution, there will be, a call to arms!!
you notice push came to shove? Amy is not among the ladies
Very creative, and to the point!
Donald Trump has a special kind of neurosis in his Islamophobia. Sadiq Khan is a muslim, and a very popular Mayor of London, England - elected three times! The mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has triggered Trump's neurosis, when in fact Trump's true fear is that a Democrat may get rightly elected!
These autocratic leaders like Putin are always blinded by their own massive egos! If Putin was able to examine history, he would know that when there is a food shortage, people are likely to go hungry and starve, conditions then become ripe for revolution!
Hope the Governor takes Fox for billions - millions won't do it!
President Trump is perfectly capable of cutting off his nose to spite his face! For decades the U.S. has had a sweet deal with Canada: Lumber from crown land; oil; potash; minerals; tourism, etc. Canada is now positioning itself like many others, to do trade with other countries around the world!
Now the U.S. Supreme Court has reduced Federal Judges to the position of a State Judge, thereby limiting their power, and effectively increasing the power of the king!
Secretary of Defence (sic), Pete Hegseth during the Press briefing today displayed wild irritation when addressing the Press. His utter contempt for the Press and the American People was in full view for all to see. It will take time to actually see the true battle damage, which Hegseth doesn't get!
This is what happened during the Nuremberg Trials after WWII; defendants' pleaded: 'we just followed orders', which is no defence at all. These arresting thugs may hide themselves from the world, but they are visible to God - be assured there are consequences for what they are doing!
...very approach led to the Boston Tea Party & the American Revolution. Perhaps this is Trump's plan to impose Martial Law, therein completing his move to a Fascist state!
If this 'BBB' Bill is passed; Medicaid, Medicare, & Food Stamps will be gutted, resulting in seniors and others threatened with death & misery, along with food shortages of those in need. There is no justification in a wealthy country to give the rich a tax break at the expense of the poor! This...
Any on-site varification?!
Jim Comey almost single-handedly sabotaged Hillary Clinton's run for the presidency!
It's a given!!!
Trump and the Republican Party care not a jot for the American People, whether it be: Medicaid; the Constitution, or their freedom! For the hardbitten MAGA group it is not so apparent, but for many they now understand that fact!
Trump has had success (sic) with bullshit all his life, and believes that is the only thing that works. That is why he does not put a premium on science, which is very far removed from his ignorance!
Mitch McConnell blows with whatever the prevailing wind is, which he has proven time and again. Despite being an experienced politician, McConnell lacks integrity; and the odds of him doing the right thing for the People is very much in doubt!
Emil Bove III is cleary the wrong candidate for a judgeship! He even ivokes claiming privilege during the confirmation process, when questions become awkward! He was Trump's lawyer which is another disqualifier!
The story of the wicked witch in the film: Serpico is very apropos, however I would change it to the reverse; that is an evil & insane king poisoned the well so the townspeople would drink from it and become insane as the king, thereby regaining their 'sanity' thus aligning themselves with the king.
For the police/ice to remain anonymous: i.e., masked, and no badge/number, is a clear violation of civil rights, and the law! Do the authorities think this should be overlooked or even questioned!?
