BREAKING: HELL YES! A Trump-appointed federal judge delivers him a CRUSHING defeat by ordering the U.S. Postal Service to ignore his illegal executive order restricting mail-in voting.
This is a massive win for democracy itself...
“Plaintiffs have demonstrated that, absent an injunction, there is an increased risk that a significant number of otherwise appropriate absentee or mail-in ballots will ultimately not be counted in the upcoming elections,” wrote U.S. District Judge Carl J. Nichols, issuing a preliminary injunction. “The public has a strong interest in ensuring that doesn’t happen.”
This ruling adds to a separate ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani against Trump's blatant attempt to undermine the midterm elections. Fully aware that he is historically unpopular and his party is heading into a midterms disaster, Trump is trying to erect as many barriers to the ballot box as possible. He knows that if fewer people are able to vote, Republicans stand a better chance of avoiding a total electoral collapse. If the executive order is enforced, millions of Americans could end up disenfranchised.
The Supreme Court is currently considering the administration's appeal of Talwani's order, and Nichols' decision further weights the case against the White House.
It's worth noting that Trump's executive order would not simply rework our elections. Since there isn't sufficient time to properly implement the changes — which would require ALL ballot envelope designs to be pre-approved by the Postal Service, as well as the uploading of data identifying mail voters to an online portal that is currently non-functioning — Trump is clearly just trying to inject chaos into the midterms. He doesn't care if his order can be implemented properly, he wants to be able to point to the failure of implementation as a pretext to claim that the election was illegal or stolen once his party loses.
"No statute grants the Postal Service the power to issue key parts of the rule," wrote Nichols.

BREAKINGNEWS New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham says shes tired of Trumps behavior and doesn't understand why Republican party doesnt take his crayons away and send him to nap like a child. 🚨
Laura Ingram asked Trump why doesn't he just give the people the money now ($5000 checks)? He says because the Democrats can't do it. It would be negative and his administration doing it is postive.
Who the hell knows what this loon is talking about?
He says, his favorite word, tariffs, has brought in $21 trillion dollars.
The Reality: Fact-checkers and economic analysts note that the $21 trillion figure is mathematically impossible for tariff collections.
Actual Collections: Federal customs duties and tariff revenues, are under $300 billion annually, with long-term (10 year) projections around $1.7 trillion.
If he's collected so much money, where is it?
America is a Trump ponzi scheme.
My Lord.
@JoeBiden, 83 years old, battling Stage 4 cancer that has spread to his bones, stood for HOURS alongside @DrBiden as the names of 9/11 victims were read.
Donald Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 event at the Pentagon.
One showed respect despite his pain. The other couldn't even stay awake.
Trump is an embarrassment to the nation and the office he holds.
Really says it all.
I don’t want to hear another Republican refer to Democrats as “Communists.” For Trump’s FCC to pressure and threaten the Jimmy Kimmel Show from interviewing James Talarico is nothing short of a dictatorship. Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime systematically threatened, undermined, and ultimately abolished freedom of the press in Germany.
BREAKING: Trump has a Stage 5 nuclear meltdown after he got exposed for lying about visiting Ground Zero on 9/11 — forcing him to finally admit the truth for once!
This is the guiltiest that this lunatic has ever sounded...
"The Failing New York Magazine wrote a story that I wasn’t down at the World Trade Center after the Tragedy of September 11th, because nobody saw me there," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Well, I don’t think I would be the first thing on anyone’s mind but, I was there, obviously not on the same day as the collapse, but shortly thereafter, with a large group of Construction Workers."
His admission that he wasn't there on the "same day as the collapse" flies in the face of his assertions and implications that he was. Just yesterday, at an event to commemorate the victims no less, he stated that he went to the site "right" after the attack happened and then had to be carried to safety by "big strong" firemen because another building looked ready to collapse.
New York Magazine covered the lie in an article entitled "Trump Tells Weird Lie About Where He Was on 9/11" in which they bluntly fact-checked him.
"I discussed it today during my Remarks on the Ellipse, in Washington, D.C., for Tunnel to Towers. Everything I said was exactly accurate and, to prove the point, I am attaching clips of me there with numerous of my people, including my then Head of Security, Matthew Calamari, who has confirmed that very sad trip to Lower Manhattan, many times, to many different Journalists, but it’s a story that just won’t die," Trump continued.
Of course, nobody has denied that Trump visited the ruins of the World Trade Center a few days after the attack, once the worst of the danger had passed. There are indeed photos of him doing so. But that's not what he claimed. He said that he was down there “right after this happened" and is now backtracking because it was such a blatant lie.
"The Fake News doesn’t want to listen, even when they know their story is false. That’s why their approval ratings are at an All Time LOW, but mine are VERY HIGH!" Trump continued. "On another September 11th front, Maggot Hagerman continues to say that I did not go to the New York World Trade Center event, but the Pentagon instead, because they wouldn’t let me speak in New York. Maggot knows that this is a lie! I have been to the New York solemn ceremony numerous times, and nobody speaks. It is a stated fact that, 'Politicians and public officials are not permitted to deliver speeches or remarks at the official September 11 anniversary remembrance ceremony at the World Trade Center site in New York.'"
Again, Trump is lying. Maggie Haberman is a respected, credible journalist whereas the President is a pathological liar. She reported, after speaking to reliable sources, that Trump refused to attend the event in question because he wouldn't be allowed to give a speech. We have no reason to doubt her and every reason to believe that Trump is lying in a desperate scramble for damage control. Just because he can quote the National September 11 Memorial & Museum's rules doesn't mean that he didn't try to violate them.
"Certainly I would not want to violate that, even if I could," Trump wrote. "I speak enough, and it just so happens that the strong request was made for me to be at the Pentagon instead, with VP Vance handling our Administration’s representation in New York. Hagerman, unattractive both inside and out, fully knows that her story is made up. She knows less about me than the average reporter 'on the beat.' I haven’t spoken to her in a long time, and certainly there was no 'fact checking' for her story — There never is! Let her reveal her sources, because they don’t exist."
The irony of Trump attacking anyone's looks was apparently lost on the President. Just take a look at literally any photograph of him. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
"Again, speeches are not made at the New York event and, even if they were, I never asked to speak," Trump continued. "Fake News is getting worse and worse in the U.S.A. It’s very important to comment so that people understand what liars and scoundrels these so-called 'journalists' are. They’re angry, and sick, over the fact that I won the Presidential Election three times! I hereby demand a retraction from Maggot, and also, for whoever wrote the fake story for New York Magazine. Again, check out the clips of me at the World Trade Center site. I was there as soon as the Law allowed. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
Clearly, these damaging reports have struck a nerve with a man who realizes that he can scarcely afford more scandals given his anemic approval ratings. He's fixated on these stories because they're true and they reveal him to be a cruel, ugly man who views nothing as sacred.
For their part, The New York Times is standing by Haberman's reporting—
“We won’t be issuing a retraction. This is another all too common example of the president lashing out at coverage he doesn’t like and belittling journalists who report the facts," the newspaper told the Independent. “Readers can follow our coverage of the president’s 9/11 plans here, and the evolving – and often disputed – account of his actions on September 11 here.”

BREAKING: Former Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall shreds Pete Hegseth for doing "long-term, serious damage" to the U.S. military and says that he "couldn't serve" under this failed administration.
This is beyond scathing from a lifelong Defense Department man...
“I’ve never seen an attempt to politicize our military like the one being conducted by Pete Hegseth,” Frank Kendall, who led the Air Force under President Biden, told ABC News. "He's fired twenty-five, roughly, senior officers. He's pulling people off of promotion lists."
The dismantling of our military under Pete Hegseth has been at the forefront of the news recently. Last week, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resigned after repeatedly clashing with the boozehound former Fox News host. The departure came after a purge of top-ranking officials by Hegseth, who has been prioritizing ideological loyalty to MAGA over experience and talent.
For there to be a place for you in Hegseth's Pentagon, you either need to be stupid enough to still support Trump despite his disastrous Iran War, failed economic policies, and ongoing Epstein coverup or you have to be cynical and dishonest enough to at least pretend to.
Kendall, who worked for over twenty years at the Pentagon, said that Hegseth's actions are "rippling all the way down through the ranks."
“It’s causing people to be afraid and in many cases I think he’s not getting good advice. Because people are afraid to tell him things that he doesn’t want to hear,” he said. "Long-term, serious damage is being done to our military."
“Very good people that I know are leaving because of the climate of fear and because of the things the military is being asked to do,” added Kendall.
"There is an obligation on our officers, particularly our senior officers, who interact directly with the senior political leadership to tell them the truth and to stand up to them when they want do something which is morally wrong, unethical, or illegal," he added. "And I'm afraid they're not doing that."
Perhaps now we can finally put to rest that absurd myth that Republicans "support our troops." These fascists don't care about maintaining a strong military. They will prioritize cheap partisan goals over the health and efficacy of our fighting forces every time. They believe in nothing but their own power and they're putting all of us in danger.
Please ❤️ and share to demand that Hegseth be fired!
BREAKING: THANK YOU! A reporter confronts Trump in the Oval Office after he disgustingly referred to the Iran War as "small potatoes" despite American troops dying.
Imagine if you were a member of these soldiers' families...
"Mr. President, the Vice President said yesterday that he would not describe the conflict with Iran as a war, but the U.S. resumed strikes for the first time in recent weeks. Can you explain to the American people, if this is not a war, what exactly is it?" a journalist asked.
"Well, I'll tell you what, a lot of people don't call it a war," said Trump, who has frequently called the Iran War a war. "I call it a military conflict because it's small potatoes for us. It's not a big thing."
The reason that the administration often rejects the label of "war" for what is obviously a war is that under the Constitution, only Congress can declare war. Trump has obtained no such declaration. On top of that, he promised an end to the "forever wars" so admitting that this is a war would be tantamount to admitting that he lied to his voters.
"We did Venezuela, and we did this," Trump continued, referring to his illegal mafia-style kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro. "In Venezuela, we lost nobody. In this, we lost 18 people. And in Vietnam, you lost 100,000 people. And in other conflicts, you lost tens of thousands of people. I would say that it's intermittent. You know, we do intermittent strikes."
Comparing this Iran War to Vietnam is idiotic for countless reasons, but chief among them is the fact that historians largely agree that the Vietnam War was a colossal mistake, a military debacle that accomplished nothing beyond mass death, suffering, and a drain on the public coffers. It also lasted over 19 years. Of course the Iran War casualties are not comparable yet.
"So I heard what he said, and it was interesting because I think that there's a lot of truth. We're not fighting right now. There's no fighting," Trump rambled on. "We're taking out a lot of oil. We control the Hormuz Strait. We control it very strongly."
In reality, Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz. The entire world knows that Trump is lying but he doesn't care because he knows that his followers are gullible enough to believe anything that spews from his mouth. He could claim that the U.S. military has conquered Mars and the MAGA crowd would clap like trained seals.
"We did a hit on certain areas around the Hormuz Strait. We took out their radar, as you know. You know that very well," Trump continued. "We took out some aircraft. We took out some other things that protect for them. Used to protect the Hormuz Strait when they had it under very tight control. But now we control it, and we're taking out— Last night, we took a lot of boats. A lot of ships came through, and they come through every day."
"So I can understand what he's saying. It's a military conflict, but it's very intermittent. I could see somebody not calling it a war yet," he added.
"But it certainly doesn't feel like small potatoes, Mr. President," the journalist shot back. "Eighteen people have died in this! It certainly doesn't feel like small potatoes. Eighteen service members have died. We're seeing record-long deployments. You initially said this would last—"
"Record-long? Why is it record-long?" an irritated Trump interjected.
"The 82nd Airborne is now being extended to a year—" the reporter attempted.
"So, how long were we in Vietnam? How long were we in Vietnam?" said Trump.
"We're seeing record-long—" began the reporter.
"No, no. How long were we in Vietnam?" snapped Trump.
"The USS Abraham Lincoln was out for more than 250 days at sea!" said the reporter.
"We've been— And you know what we did in five months? They're not going to have a nuclear weapon. That's what we did. Iran will not have a nuclear weapon," said Trump. "Because if they did, you probably wouldn't be standing here very long. Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. We've stopped them from having. We may hit [Pickaxe Mountain] very soon, because if there was anything going on with Pickaxe. But because of uh... Because of all of the things... You know, we're leading in space now by a lot."
Of course, Iran was not pursuing nuclear weapons. Our own intelligence agencies concluded as much. This war — and yes, it is a war — was launched on behalf of Israel because Benjamin Netanyahu duped Trump into thinking that he could achieve a quick, splashy victory by murdering the Ayatollah. All the while, Tel Aviv was solely interested in weakening and destabilizing a regional adversary to make their brutal expansion into Lebanon and beyond easier.

BREAKING: WOW! A Republican candidate for the Missouri House gets hit with federal charges for allegedly scheming to plant cocaine on his primary opponent ahead of the election.
This entire party is full of literal criminals...
“Candidates are expected to conduct their campaigns with integrity, honesty, and respect for their opponents, allowing voters to make informed decisions without fear of misinformation or undue influence,” said U.S. Attorney R. Matthew Price.
Thomas Christopher Ross appeared in court today to face a charge for "conspiring to distribute a controlled substance." He allegedly asked his former campaign manager to plant a bag containing cocaine and Adderall inside either the purse or a vehicle belonging to his primary opponent Louise Secker.
Rather than mindlessly obey their wannabe mobster boss, the campaign manager informed officers at the Joplin Police Department about the plot. According to the authorities, the deeply stupid Ross asked the former campaign manager via text message to carry out the crime while he was "out of state on vacation." He was so incompetent that he created a digital paper trail of his alleged conspiracy. The case was ultimately handed over to the FBI.
The irony is that despite his little caper failing, Ross ultimately defeated Secker in the primary by a few dozen votes. In other words, had he not decided to roleplay as a master criminal, he'd be cruising smoothly towards the general election right now.
Now, for obvious reasons, Peter Kinder, the chair of the Missouri Republican Party, is demanding that Ross "immediately" pull out of the race.
“Being the Republican nominee for public office carries with it a responsibility to the voters, the community, and the principles our party represents,” Kinder stated. “The people of the 161st District deserve a nominee who can devote his full attention to earning their trust and representing their interests in Jefferson City.”
It seems that barely a week goes by without another Republican politician getting charged with some heinous crime. These people look at the leader of their party, a mass-murdering, conman pedophile and think "gee, I should be a criminal too." But since they're not insulated by the vast powers of the Oval Office, they end up falling flat on their faces and getting hauled in front of a judge.

BREAKING: MAJOR SCANDAL! Susan Collins' campaign chair in Greenville gets exposed as a former member of the Oath Keepers — the extremist group that stormed the Capitol.
So much for the "moderate" Susan Collins. And it gets so much worse...
Back in June, Collins proudly announced that Wayne Erkkinen had been placed in charge of her grassroots campaigns and voter outreach in Greenville ahead of the hotly contested midterm election.
But according to the Anti-Defamation League, Erkkinen was revealed to be a member of the Oath Keepers — a violent, far-right extremist group — when the organization's leaked membership list was analyzed back in 2022. In other words, Collins likely knew. That's the very same Oath Keepers who played a central role in the deadly January 6th insurrection. Some members were eventually convicted of seditious conspiracy for their actions leading up to and during that day.
Erkkinen told The Swamp that he joined the Oath Keepers in 2010 and is absurdly insisting that he thought it was just a benign group for law enforcement officers and military veterans who wanted to defend the Constitution. If you believe that, we have a bridge we'd like to sell you.
He further claimed that he left the paramilitary group "years ago" because "it wasn’t what I thought it would be."
Sorry, but that simply doesn't cut it. There is no way in hell this man went to Oath Keeper meetings and came away thinking that they were anything other than a far-right group of violent lunatics. These people do not try to hide who they are. They're proud of their radicalism.
Collins' association with this kind of person is utterly disqualifying. The mainstream media is losing its mind over Democrats having any connection to Hasan Piker, a harmless left-wing streamer who dares to criticize Israel. Meanwhile, sitting Republican senators are associating with former members of a group that literally tried to overthrow our republic. The double standard is beyond galling.
Democrat Troy Jackson is clearly the vastly superior choice in this race. He's standing up for working class people, aggressively confronting the oligarchy destroying this country, and he has zero ties to extremist groups!
Please like and share to demand that Collins suspend her campaign!
BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! A prominent psychologist reveals that Trump appears to have had a partial seizure in the middle of a speech — and it's crickets from the mainstream media!
This should be front page news...
“For the past few months, I have been showing various neurological concerns and some steep signs of decline from President Trump, but what we're going to start with today is extremely concerning,” said John Paul Garrison, a respected clinical and forensic psychologist.
He was referring to footage of Trump's speech at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Texas last Friday during which the President seemed incapable of controlling strange twitches and body spasms in addition to struggling to find the right words.
“What you just observed was a distinct and concerning neurological event, and you got to watch it cross both hemispheres in his brain. I'll explain what I mean,” Garrison said.
“You saw his right arm jerk, and then you saw him blink, you heard his voice hesitate, and then you saw his left arm jerk," he continued. "You literally watched it travel across his brain. To be very clear, these were not simple muscle spasms; this is not something related to pain. You don't see any pain on his face. You actually watch it travel from one arm, to his eyes, to his voice, to his left arm.”
Drilling down into specifics, Garrison speculated that Trump may have suffered from what's called a "focal aware seizure" which is a briefer, less severe form of seizure.
“Now, what this is very consistent with is something that we see in people that have had strokes called a focal aware seizure or a focal motor seizure, and this can be focused in one part in the brain, and occasionally, it can spread to both parts of the brain,” explained Garrison.
“I'm not insisting that's what's going on with him, but it is clearly something neurological, whether it's post-stroke or something else," he added.
Garrison also said that Trump's pathetic attempt to rename Lake Ontario to "Lake America" is likely related to the "neurological problems" he's experiencing.
"Something that we see in general with people that are having neurological issues, whether it's dementia, sometimes in post-stroke behavior, the ability to make decisions, the ability to use good judgment, sometimes that goes away," said Garrison.
"The idea that Trump is trying to create a hostile relationship with Canada is unbelievable and I do think that's all related to the inability to think through these situations in a coherent way," he added.
Clearly, Trump is suffering from some kind of neurological issue. This possible seizure is just the latest in a long string of bizarre incidents. He regularly gets confused while speaking, falls asleep during high-profile Oval Office meetings, and is increasingly acting erratically, even by his insane standards. He often brags about passing cognitive tests, but the only reason that they'd be administered so often is if doctors were concerned.
What do you thinks going on with Trump's brain?

BREAKING: "Let Data Reign!" Donald Trump spits in his voters' faces by declaring that Americans who oppose data centers in their communities "want to end up being backwards and poor."
There's out of touch and then there's whatever the hell this is...
"The only reason that communities throughout the U.S.A. should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
In reality, people oppose data centers because they destroy quality of life with awful noise pollution, seize land that could be put to better use, consume massive amounts of water, drive up energy costs, all while adding an eye sore to the landscape and contributing nothing to the community itself.
"If they want to be successful and rich, with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place, let Data Reign," Trump continued. "The good news is that there are plenty of other places that want them. If we kill the Golden Goose, you will only have yourselves to blame. China could not be happier with this anti Data Center movement. Actually, they can’t believe it is happening! President DJT"
In reality, data centers do very little to actually benefit local communities. While they can create short-term jobs in construction, once the centers are built they require little labor to operate. At the same time, they often receive generous tax breaks, so locals end up effectively subsidizing them and their corporate overlords. In no world are these tech-abominations making normal people "successful and rich."
Trump likely knows all of this (if he has bothered to look into the issue at all) but he doesn't care because data centers are big business for his corrupt oligarch cronies. He'll always side with the interests of billionaires over those of working class Americans.
Unfortunately for Trump, this is a losing issue for him heading into the midterm elections. According to a Gallup poll conducted in March, 71% of Americans oppose construction of AI data centers in their local area. Of that percentage, 48% "strongly" oppose them. Only 26% favor them.
Please Trump, we beg you, double down on this issue! Label your entire party the "data centers in your backyard" side. Meanwhile, Democrats will be fighting for the American people.

BREAKING: SHAME! Trump refuses to attend the ceremony commemorating the 25th anniversary of 9/11 because the event organizers won't let him give a MAGA speech.
This man makes everything about himself...
According to people with "knowledge of the events" who spoke to The New York Times, Trump was originally planning on attending the event. He even had his team perform advance visits to Manhattan’s National September 11 Memorial & Museum, a customary security check when the President travels anywhere.
His minions also informed the museum that he would like to give a speech at the event. But under the organization's official rules, politicians are forbidden from delivering speeches at anniversary events. This restriction prevents things from descending into political partisanship and ensures that attendees can focus on "honoring the victims and their families in a way free of politics.”
Since, Trump is pathologically incapable of empathy and is uninterested in anything that doesn't revolve around him and his turgid ego, he has now cancelled his plans to attend.
The self-centeredness itself is unsurprising, because this is not a man who has any genuine care for the victims of 9/11 or their families. On the day that the towers came down, he publicly boasted that their destruction meant he now owned the tallest building in Lower Manhattan. He also falsely claimed to have helped clear the rubble.
Since he was blocked from giving a speech at the museum, Trump will now "commemorate" the anniversary at the Pentagon, where he'll be able to rant and rave into a microphone for as long as he likes. The smart money predicts an Islamophobic tirade and we wouldn't be surprised if he tries to conflate Al Qaeda and Iran, in order to draw an imaginary connection between the 9/11 attacks and his ongoing illegal war.
Vice President J.D. Vance will be attending the memorial event at the museum in Trump's stead.
The organization's statement about this brewing scandal was reserved and nonpartisan as expected.
“For more than a decade, the ceremony at Ground Zero has featured only family members solemnly reading the names of their loved ones. Elected officials of both parties have borne witness to this solemn occasion over the years, and we have been honored that every living President, including President Trump, has attended. Of course, President Trump is always welcome,” the museum stated.
The most enraging thing about Trump's refusal to attend this solemn and sacred event is the silence from MAGA world. The very same people who are furious that Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a Muslim, will be attending the event have nothing to say about their petulant cult leader disrespecting the entire ceremony.
And it should go without saying, but the the museum made the right decision by refusing to let Trump speak. The last thing that the families of 9/11 victims need to hear is a longwinded, rambling diatribe from a sundowning pedophile.

BREAKING: BUSTED! Three Secret Service officials, including its top spokesman, are MARCHED out of offices amid an explosive probe into the catering truck leak!
The Trump administration’s hunt for the leaker who spilled the beans on the catering truck incident in Turkey just slammed Trump’s own Secret Service – hard.
Communications Director Anthony Guglielmi and two other officials in his department were escorted out of their offices yesterday, had their security clearances suspended, and their work devices seized, and placed on leave.
The Secret Service is refusing to say what the alleged misconduct involves following an investigation that involved both the FBI and CIA.
The suspensions come amid an frantic push by FBI Director Kash Patel to find the source of a leak about Trump’s secret exit and much-ridiculed exit from Turkey after last month’s NATO summit.
Facing an Iranian assassination threat, Trump was reportedly smuggled off Air Force One inside a catering cart, leaving several Cabinet members behind while taking only a small group of close aides – including lovestruck aide Natalie Harp – before boarding another unmarked military plane.
The operation was designed to conceal the president’s movements. Once the details appeared in the press, Patel was ordered to find the leakers at all cost, and scapegoats were identified and sacrificed.
It has not been publicly confirmed that Guglielmi and the other two are actually going to be suspended or fired over that specific leak. But the timing is hard to ignore.
Guglielmi has led Secret Service communications for years and has the now-unfortunate distinction of being hired by Joe Biden, though he weathered defending the agency after the public criticism of the 2024 Butler assassination attempt.
This latest drama unfolds against a backdrop of festering turmoil inside the Secret Service.
Last month Guglielmi announced that an agent on Vice President JD Vance’s detail was under criminal investigation over a suspected media leak after agents were quoted complaining about having to take his kids to soccer practice in a government heli.
Sean Curran, a longtime Trump security presence whom he personally chose to lead the agency despite having no administrative experience, has been trying to overhaul training, equipment, and accountability after the Butler failures.
For now, the big question remains unanswered: What exactly do investigators believe the Secret Service’s own top flacks did?
Is their sudden removal a warning shot to announce they will hunt down anyone leaking information about Trump’s security and movements?
Trump has sent a clear message here. He trusts no one any more, and minions as high as an agency's top spokesmen, whose job is to control the public narrative -- are now vulnerable to being marched out of the building and publicly humiliated to make a point.
We say that if you have to compel your staff not to talk about what you are doing, you must not be doing it right. The paranoia is running high these days – and it’s only getting worse.
If the spectacle of Secret Service communications chiefs getting escorted out while the leak hunt intensifies has you shaking your head, please like and share.

BREAKING: NERVE, STRUCK! Trump throws a massive hissy fit and threatens to rename Lake Ontario to something WAY stupider after Ontario Premier Doug Ford told him to "kiss my ass."
Talk about a one trick pony...
"The United States is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America in that we don’t expect to be doing much business with Ontario any longer," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
The lunatic outburst comes after Ford called Trump a "dictator," "bully," and "the king of bankruptcies."
“Well, he can kiss my ass, as far as I’m concerned. We need to throw everything and the kitchen sink at him. He’s arrogant. He’s cocky," said Ford.
The blunt jab was a response to the Trump administration torpedoing our relationship with Canada, our closest ally, after trade negotiations broke down last Friday. The White House slapped 50% tariffs on many Canadian imports and Canada hit back by announcing matching tariffs of their own.
This asinine idea to rename Lake Ontario is akin to jangling keys in front of a baby's face for the MAGA crowd. It's just a lazy retread of what he did with the Gulf of Mexico and unfortunately these Republican rubes are already falling for it. Our country is falling apart, Trump still hasn't sorted out his failed war with Iran, the economy is in free fall, and now our sundowning President is focused on meaningless name changes.
To point out the obvious, but Canada couldn't care less what name Trump decides to scrawl on his map. Canada and the entire rest of the world will just go on calling it Lake Ontario.
As deeply stupid as this idea is, it demonstrates how well this man understands his braying base. They don't care if their lives worsen by every single metric thanks to his disastrous leadership, so long as they can chant "USA" at his rallies and engage in brainless xenophobia.
In a followup post, Trump attacked Prime Minister Mark Carney for revealing that during the abandoned negotiations, White House officials sought to strip Quebec's unique identity by attacking French language programs. As always with these MAGA weirdos, culture war issues are the priority. Understandably, the Canadians saw the bizarre requests as an attack on their sovereignty and a form of imperialism.
"I would never interfere with Canadians speaking French!" Trump wrote. "In fact, I have never even thought of doing such a stupid thing. This lie was made up by a weak and ineffective Prime Minister in an attempt to gain political support, which he has totally lost, from the people of Quebec. I love French Canadians! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
Of course, if Trump is denying something that usually means that it's true. We have no reason to distrust Carney on this issue and every reason in the world to think that Trump is lying once again.
And again, it cannot be stressed enough how deeply stupid this entire trade war is. There is nothing to be gained and the American people are already struggling from the fallout of the Iran War. Once again, Trump has put his boot on our collective neck.

This is what psychological rock bottom looks like...
"The Radical Left Democrats are going CRAZY with Fake Polls. They’re putting them out at levels never seen before," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "They’re called, 'Demoralization Operations,' where they try to demoralize Republicans so that they don’t go out and vote — But the actual Polls are tremendous, and the Spirit in our Country has never been higher."
"We’re winning against EVERYONE, including Iran, whose Country is in Economic and Military Death Spiral. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP," he added.
Of course, there is absolutely nothing fake about the polls predicting a historic wipeout for the Republican Party this November. The RealClearPolling generic-ballot average has Democrats up a staggering 6 points nationally. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll found that Trump's approval has plummeted to 33%, the lowest of his presidency. There also seems to be an increasing chance that Democrats flip the Senate.
Perhaps most infuriatingly for the MAGA cult leader, a Fox News poll found that 53% of voters say that they'd support the Democratic candidate in their House district compared to 46% who said Republican. 53% is the highest percentage that either party has notched in the generic House ballot for Fox polling since 1996.
In other words, the numbers look dire for the MAGA movement. As for Trump's claim that Democrats are trying to demoralize Republicans, the beautiful truth is that we don't have to. He's doing that himself by running the most corrupt, incompetent administration in American history.
Trump's illegal Iran War, which he started on behalf of Israel, is a complete disaster. American service members have been killed and injured in droves and absolutely nothing has been gained for America. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and the price of gas and groceries continue to rise.
Meanwhile, the entire world knows that this President is a pedophile because his name is all over the Jeffrey Epstein files and his corrupt Justice Department is still hiding documents from the public.
It's time to sweep this entire vile party out of power.
