It seems to me that this administration will keep firing intelligence analysts until they can find one who will lie to justify the regime disappearing perceived enemies to foreign torture dungeons.

In today’s “Wait A Damn Minute” we expose the misleading moments of Trump’s “MAGA Minute” in which Karoline Leavitt tries to convince Americans that Trump actually did something this week.

Sure, Jan.

I’m your Shadow Press Secretary and here are the facts.

Hey NY Times--

It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it.

There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment.

The only thing that has changed is the Times.

If only he was half as obsessed with creating the best healthcare system for the American people as he is about getting his fat ass on the best plane.

I get that people have to sell books. And I get that DNC Vice-Chair elections matter.

But if a Democratic President accepted a $400 million gift from the Qatari royal family, coverage would be breathless, non-stop and wall-to-wall -- no room for any other story.

Helping the U.S. gets you banned, being white gets you a welcome mat. Got it.

Republican Tommy Tuberville has blocked a Democratic resolution that would have condemned the proposed gift of a luxury jet from Qatar to Trump.

“He is standing here for the American people”

- while he fights to obtain his $400m luxury plane from Qatar

- while he watches billionaires buy his meme coins in exchange for favors

- while his big donors like Elon load up on government contracts and eliminate any federal oversight

The US trade war strategy regarding China:

- Make it seem like you’re fighting unfair trade practices and the influx of drugs

- Settle for a tax on Chinese goods to subsidize your tax breaks for billionaires

The End

Trump welcomes 49 white Afrikaners today as “refugees” from South Africa…

The racism is a feature, not a bug.

As a teacher, I can’t accept gifts worth more than $50 in case I were to treat that student more favorably as a result.

We should hold the same standards for our President.

Trump saves world from brink of disaster he created by creating smaller disaster that’s also extremely damaging and unnecessary. It’s the Trump way. The art of the schlemiel.

I will block any arms sale to a nation that is doing direct personal business with Trump. We should have a full Senate debate and vote.

UAE's investment in Trump crypto and Qatar's gifting of a plane is nuclear grade graft. An unacceptable corruption of our foreign policy.

Standard fare from the most corrupt administration in American history.
May 12, 2025 at 12:17 PM
We’ve become so desensitized to corruption that the Attorney General who spent years lobbying on behalf of Qatar approved a private jet gift from Qatar and it’s not even in the top 10 scandals of the week.

It takes effort and intention to be this malicious.

Their conduct shames decent law enforcement officers everywhere.

Their cruelty shames America.
A man pulled up to a gas station to fill up his truck. ICE agents surrounded him and took him away. But his children were left behind.
“They arrested someone,” witness said. “They left the children inside the truck.”

Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.
