Actor Jeff Daniel’s on Donald Trump:
“We’ve lost decency. We’ve lost civility. We’ve lost respect for the rule of law. We’ve normalized verbal abuse. We’ve normalized bullying. Out the window goes character, integrity. We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the worst of us. He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America but being a human being.” Do you agree?
I say this as a 3-time Trump voter, a lifelong Republican who spent an embarrassing amount of money on merch and travel to Trump rallies and DC…
I was duped. The past 14 months have been betrayal after betrayal. It sucks admitting I got it wrong. No, I’m not saying Kamala would have been better. But Trump is a politician, a glorified snake oil salesman. He is not God nor should he be worshipped as one. And we need to hold our politicians accountable.. ESPECIALLY the ones we voted for and sacrificed friendships, jobs and family over.
Trump is now attempting to bully his base into supporting another reckless foreign war, ignore the Epstein files and now, accept data centers or else you want to be “backwards and poor”. I’ve never been in an emotionally abusive relationship… and I’m not about to start now.
Thank you for your attention to this matter🫡🇺🇸
BREAKING: SCORCHING HOT! Progressive superstar Jennifer Welch unleashes her most scorching takedown yet of the “pro-pedophilia” “death cult” Republican Party.
Every single word of this is true…
“Republicans, you have agency, you have autonomy, and if you make everybody believe the same way you believe, your party still sucks and you still can't deliver for American people,” the left-wing commentator said. “You never have been able to because your whole political record is as follows…”
“Lies, say that we're so great with the economy,” she said. “‘I have to vote Republican because I'm in business.’ Republicans are notorious losers when it comes to business. They drive up the deficit, they give all of the rich people unnecessary, undeserving tax breaks, they start wars, people die.”
This point is crucial to understanding the cyclical nature of American politics. Conservatives rely on the myth that they’re somehow “good for the economy” to win votes, but every time they get into power they skyrocket the deficit and crash the markets. It then falls to Democrats to come in and clean up the mess, just in time for next Republican administration to destroy it all over again.
This painfully predictable loop is not some accidental outcome of the Republican platform, it’s the natural result of their monomaniacal drive to slash taxes for the rich and corporations. The truth is that they’re not pro-business, they’re pro-oligarchy. They don’t care if they inflict financial suffering on the working class, so long as the rich can siphon more wealth into their already-bloated bank accounts.
“Now they're deregulating everything. We've got people dropping dead of measles,” Welch continued. “We're buying contaminated beef from Argentina.”
“We've got blueberries that are killing people. We have killer blueberries in the United States of America!” said Welch. “They're deregulating all of our environmental protections and they're killing off horses, wild horses, and they are tearing up our national parks.”
“These people are destroyers of life,” she went on. “They are not a pro-life party. That is a lie. MAGA is a pro-pedophilia, anti-family death cult. Find me evidence that they are not that. And on top of all of this, we've done a bunch of episodes so far this week, they're all still in the Epstein files!”
“All of them, everybody in the Trump regime, they're all linked in there,” she said. “They're all right in the middle of a pedophile ring. Democrats, stop and start attacking MAGA nonstop all day every day because these people suck.”
At this point, there can be no real arguing that the MAGA movement is anything other than pro-pedophilia. The President himself is deeply implicated in the Epstein files, including allegations of heinous child abuse. Meanwhile, it seems that hardly a day goes by without a prominent Republican getting charged with child abuse-related charges.
“These people are losers,” Welch added. “All they have is beating up on marginalized people to try to distract from the fact that these oligarchs are sucking Americans dry for every penny they have.”
We couldn’t agree more!

BREAKING: A Stars & Stripes reporter DEFIES Pete Hegseth by announcing that she works for her newspaper, not him or Trump — and ends up paying for it with her job.
This is what journalistic courage looks like...
"Today, I was informed that the Department of Defense is firing me for insubordination after I told a CBS reporter that I work for Stars and Stripes – not the Pentagon, not any administration, and not any policy maker," Lara Korte wrote on X.
"I consider it a great privilege to live alongside members of the military and share their stories. It’s a shame for the institution and service members, who swore to defend the Constitution and deserve the right to a free and independent press."
"I’m proud of the work my colleagues and I do at Stars and Stripes, especially the last six months covering the protracted conflict in Iran. Military families and service members have trusted us to share their experience with the world and I don’t take that lightly."
"In the meantime, please read my latest story about the struggles that military families are going through right now. Hundreds have been stuck in limbo after evacuating Bahrain and are facing emotional and financial hardships," she concluded, linking to a story about the 1,300 U.S. Navy family members who were evacuated from Bahrain at the start of Trump's illegal war and who are now being told they cannot return for the "foreseeable future" and need to find new homes elsewhere.
That story is worth a read in full, but this post is specifically about Korte's unceremonious termination. Her firing is part of a move by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to force out several top staffers at Stars & Stripes, including editor-in-chief Erik Slavin.
Slavin, like Korte, was dismissed today for supposed "insubordination." Of course, under this regime, penning anything less than nonstop, fawning coverage of our pedophile President and his illegal Iran War is seen as "insubordination." Slavin recently condemned "hypothetical censorship" that could soon hit the paper.
Publisher Max Lederer announced earlier this week that he would retire September 30 over fundamental differences with Pentagon leadership, only to receive a termination notice himself today. It comes after Hegseth installed MAGA apparatchik William Urban — who is an active-duty Navy captain and public affairs officer — as Lederer's deputy. Hegseth's tentacles have now snaked deeply inside the outlet.
Stars & Stripes, an official military publication, has long enjoyed editorial independence from the whims of the political appointees running the Pentagon, but this White House doesn't believe in independence of any sort. One need look no further than the political prosecutions coming out of the Justice Department for evidence of that. They believe in making everything partisan, as all fascist movements do.
The administration was particularly incensed by Stars & Stripes' coverage of the disgusting, inhumane conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, a state of affairs that has turned into a major scandal for the White House. The American people are outraged that our brave sailors are being abused by this administration in service of a failed, child-murdering war launched on behalf of Israel.
"In firing the editor of Stars and Stripes, Pentagon leadership is making clear their view that the newsroom should exist not as an independent outlet whose reporting serves to benefit U.S. troops, but as a mouthpiece to parrot Pentagon talking points," said National Press Club President Mark Schoeff Jr., calling the firings "another brazen attempt by the Pentagon to dictate coverage of the military."
Do you stand with these reporters?
