Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor (ex-Prince Andrew) arrested in the UK today (his birthday).

Not for the salacious stuff with Epstein - at least not yet. But allegedly for passing confidential business documents while in public office.

Will this be the trigger for Trump to attack Iran as a distraction?

How many of Trump's Cabinet of Cronies & other hangers-on are making personal fortunes from scam deals, dodgy transactions, insider trading, & all the other grifts that Trump is running?

The whole Trump family, including those by marriage (Kushner) are minting cash.

But what about all the others?
February 19, 2026 at 3:26 AM
Trump has so many dodgy things going on at the same time, he must be finding it tricky distracting attention from all of them:

Epstein files

Stolen Venezuelan oil proceeds banked in Qatar

Rigging the mid-term elections

Dodgy crypto deals

Pardons for criminal mates in return for loot

I know I’m stating the obvious, but I do believe it’s important to point out that Marco Rubio is an insufferable little prick.

You're welcome.

Just how much longer can Trump maintain the façade?

He is unwell, both physically & mentally. Particularly the mental problems, from his worsening dementia to his long-standing, deep-seated psychopathy, personality disorders, & learning difficulties.

If he falls, would the cronies all fall too?

I would have thought that the best way to reduce the number of "poor people" would be to make them "un-poor", not "un-alive"..!

Help people up the material ladder rather than kick them off it!

This is the real Donald Trump. He tells you who he is.

The same Randy Fines who complained self-righteously about the Super Bowl half-time show being lewd, immoral, and salacious.

Look where his morals are now...

Trump posted that the mid-terms will be run with Voter ID, no mail-in votes, etc, whether Congress likes it or not.

But Constitutionally, he can't do that.

Looks like we're about to see if TACO backs down - again - on this point over the next 8 months or so.

What will SCOTUS do - if anything?

The problem with the extreme left & extreme right is that they are so evangelical, they think they can get a candidate up in a vote.

They ignore the fact that the vast majority of people are somewhere in the middle, & those people don't want extreme anything.

Aim for the majority in the middle..!

AG "Bitch" Bondi keeps rabbiting on about how good is the stock market.

93% of all stock market wealth is owned by the top 10% of Americans.

The top 1% alone own 54% of the entire stock market.

The bottom 50% of Americans? They own a grand total of 1%.

Between ALL of them. Most have NONE of it.

Just re the SAVE legislation - how would somebody like Melania Trump prove she can vote?

Would she have her original birth certificate (which is not American)?

Would she have her original (not a copy) marriage certificate?

In fact, is she actually a legal immigrant? With her Einstein visa?

So Bondi & the DOJ "invite" reps to view the unredacted Epstein files (which were, in fact, still heavily redacted) on DOJ computers set up for them.

Is anyone surprised that all their viewings & searches were spied on & monitored for use against those reps?

Bondi had it all in her "burn book"..!

Trump is playing the distraction trick again.

While we're all looking over HERE at his dementia blurbs on social media, his spat with Canada over a bridge, & his whining about the NFL half-time show...

... we're not looking over THERE where he is parking all the money in Qatar from the stolen oil
February 11, 2026 at 12:09 PM
If true, this could be a disaster for Trump. Although the odds are that he will just call it fake, a hoax.
February 10, 2026 at 6:06 AM
Although Bernie Sanders is a bit TOO far to the left for my tastes, he does make some good calls.

It really IS time Republicans had had enough of brown-nosing Trump and started to realize that their own reelection chances are down the toilet unless they stand up to Trump & tell him "ENOUGH..!"
February 10, 2026 at 3:24 AM
Fair warning - Trump & the butt-kissing Republicans are coming for those mid-term elections by every means possible.

Those who truly want to see free & fair elections need to get ahead of the game, preempt what Trump's butt-kissers will do, and get judicial oversight to ensure they can't do it.
February 10, 2026 at 3:20 AM
The BIG question:

Will it be Epstein files or his dementia that brings Trump down?

Hopefully one or the other, but he needs to be removed, along with all his cabinet & back room cronies.

And the sooner the better...!
February 10, 2026 at 3:18 AM
Trump's dementia getting rapidly worse. Now he's holding bridges & tunnels to ransom so they can be renamed after him.

He's also slagging off Canada (again) and telling Canada that being partners with China means that China will stop Canada playing ice hockey (whuttt?)

Trump is losing it rapidly!

Trump again raving about the stock market.

93% of all stock market wealth is owned by the top 10% of Americans.

The top 1% alone own 54% of the entire stock market.

The bottom 50% of Americans? They own a grand total of 1%.

Between ALL of them. Most have NONE of it.

Out of touch with reality?
