Today in Politics, Bulletin 144. Elon Musk trashes Trump and Mike Johnson budget bill. All the fallout from that, and everything else that happened today in politics. https://t.co/yDBiDS6feq
Since the media refuses to report on it, let me share what happens at a typical Trump speech:
1. He comes out to the playing of the “January 6 Anthem” song which he recorded with some of the most dangerous J6 rioters in jail.
2. He brags how his song with the J6 rioters gets more downloads than Taylor Swift (it does not)
3. He spends a few minutes talking about passing cognitive exams, and how the audience would not pass the exam, but because he is really smart (he is not) he is able to ace the exam.
4. He praises Viktor Orban, the leader of Hungary, who Trump says is the most respected leader in Europe (he is not).
5. He praises President Xi and says he is very strong and rules over 1 billion people with an iron fist and Hollywood couldn’t find an actor as tough as President Xi.
6. He praises Putin and says people say it’s a bad thing he gets along with Putin but he thinks it’s a good thing.
7. He makes weird noises reenacting lifting weights with a trans woman and he says “mommy I can’t do it. Mommy. Ughhh, uhh, mommy help me.”
8. He says he doesn’t like seeing President Biden at the beach and says he has a better body than Biden (he does not)
9. He talks about his hatred of windmills and his hatred of electric cars. He says he would rather be electrocuted than eaten by sharks however.
10. He praises the J6 insurrectionists and calls them hostages.
11. He whines about his court cases, attacks prosecutors, judges, and witnesses, and then praises “the great Alphonse Capone” and brags he was indicted more than Capone.
12. He quotes Hitler and says immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country.
13. He says he wants to be a dictator on day 1.
14. He plays QAnon music, audience members often make QAnon sign with their hands, and he talks about how America is a failing nation.
15. He does a weird dance and leaves.
Republicans have a plan to destroy American democracy called "Project 2025". They actually put their dangerous plan in writing!
SIGN OUR PETITION & tell Congress NO to Project 2025

Here is Trump Senior Advisor and former appointee John McEntee, who helped draft Project 2025, explaining to Steve Bannon last July how Trump plans to implement the plan immediately after taking office. But Trump doesn’t know these people or anything about it.
President Biden is only 4 years older than Donald trump, but he still has:
- 91 fewer felony counts against him
- 14 million more jobs created
- 800,000 manufacturing jobs
- 140 million more Americans covered under the Affordable Care Act
- 7 million more popular votes
- 1 more infrastructure bill passed
- 1 American Rescue Act
- 1 CHIPs act
- 1 Wife who actually loves him
- 0 cities prohibiting him from doing business
- 0 insurrections incited
- 0 impeachments
Those are the numbers that MATTER.
BREAKING: Fox News enrages its MAGA viewers by cutting away from a disastrous Trump speech as right-wing host Neil Cavuto trashes Trump's lies, saying that he's "entitled to his opinions, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts."
But it gets so much worse for Trump...
"I mean no offense to him or some of you might want to continue to hear him but I did have to say that even though the former president is entitled to his opinions, he's not entitled to his own set of facts," said Cavuto, as Trump's face was reduced to a small box on the side of the frame.
"The market has indeed been going up but having nothing to do with him and everything to do with this aggressive cut in interest rates or just a hike in interest rates, it has stabilized inflation," Cavuto went on.
"And of course the whole artificial intelligence phenomenon that has benefited Nvidia and a host of companies that are making moeny hand over fist so that — whether you want to give Biden credit for that — it has nothing to do with Donald Trump," he said.
But Cavuto wasn't done there. He unleashed a string of brutal fact-checks, tearing through Trump's pathetic stream of lies and popping the insulated information bubble that Fox News voters live in.
"Furthermore, he mentioned about gas prices out of whack, $6 a gallon. The national average right now is $3.26 a gallon," said Cavuto.
"He went on to talk about the 2020 election and how that was rigged," added Cavuto. "This has been adjudicated many many times, dozens of times. It's been investigated by everyone and his uncle no fewer than forty-four investigations launched, some of them by judges that were picked by Donald Trump himself that found no evidence of that in the seven battleground states where most of them were focused."
Wow. If not even Fox News — a network that exists solely to pump out conservative propaganda — is turning against Trump's lies, he is in serious trouble come November.
