This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.

Pure, mindless, barbarism.

"Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial."

This is what I told my Dad last night:

The TACO presidency is not over, but his aura of invincibility is.

It’s not one thing. It’s the cumulative effect of a shit economy, wildly unpopular tariffs, ICE terrorizing communities, his flip flopping on H-1B visas, redistricting not going all that well

It’s time for a state to say, “Fuck you” and impound everything the federal government has in the state until Trump releases the funding it was budgeted by law. Take buildings and vehicles. Seize accounts. Whatever it takes. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/n...

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

Six months ago Trump berated Zelensky in the Oval Office, saying he would have to concede territory to Putin

He’s now reversed himself completely, adopting the strategy that Joe Biden implemented-which has effectively crippled Russia’s military and economic capabilities

Thank you, President Biden

Meet Caroline, a former TPUSA insider. She saw firsthand how Kirk’s world runs on cruelty, trolling, and blind obedience. It took years to admit the truth.

NOTE: recorded in July, before Charlie Kirk’s murder, which makes it hit even harder.
