The Nazis used to sent the Gestapo into court rooms. Without saying anything, they would send a clear message to the judge about the outcome they expected for an accused political enemy.

This is judicial intimidation. This is Trumpian fascism as well.

They are American programs that cut across all political affiliations and leanings. The cuts will impact Democrat voters and Republinut voters. It will affect Trump voters and Harris voters.

They will be toppled by their own stupidity.

Sometimes spellcheck backed by AI just screws up. It’s frustrating to type quickly, submit, and then discover spellcheck decided to go a different path.

Add a little dyslexia and you get a whole new meaning via one key word change.

'We have a statue of MLK': GOP lawmakers push for Charlie Kirk monument in Capitol -RawStory

Can’t even fathom a comparison of Kirk & MLK. Kirk was a white nationalist who resented black successes. Kirk’s hate was wide & deep across race, religion, gender.

Like putting up a statue for Geobbels.

Reality sucks, but Trump lives in his own head like other autocrats (knows more than anyone about everything & anything contradictory is a lie).

I’m expecting MAGA with regime support to establish summer camps much like the American Nazi party operated in NJ in the 1930s. I’m certain they’ll want to further indoctrinate a broader following & align with extremists like their Nazi predecessors.

Camp Norland, 1937-41 rallied with the KKK.

Response to Cornyn.

You’re doing a great job as a Trump flunky, a minion of a despot. Your effort to dismantle constitutional law will be memorable. Keep up the great work so that the judiciary is completely, and hopeless powerless.

It’s representatives like you that will keep corruption popular.

Trump missed it again. The atomic bomb ended a war. His big beautiful bomb has likely started an assymetrical war.

This how a decision for war was decided…from NYT. They did their marketing research…would it play well in the polls.

Note to Senator Cornyn:
1/ Big Beautiful Bill or Another Major Screw-up?

Expand the deficit. Diminish healthcare. Take food from the hungry. Give Trump and his minions exemption from judicial orders and contempt citations.

From Almeidas: Trump then went to UAE to give a speech, and said this: ‘My first week, eggs were up 200%. Now, they are down 97%, 98% from where they were.’

$2.50 to $7.50 (that’s +200%). $7.50 down 98% is $0.15/dozen.

Math not a Trump strong point.

The Temptation song “Ball of Confusion” came to mind today when reading about all of Trump’s seemingly confused and misleading statements.

Look up the lyrics or give it a listen on your favorite streaming music service.

From Huffington:" Musk said on Thursday night at Tesla all hands..

"Listen, I understand if you don't want to buy our product, but you don't have to burn it down. That's a bit unreasonable," he continued.

Musk burning down gov't ok, though.

Trump’s plan and the Congressional CR that includes the tax cut renewal should lead us to this:

"Key inflation data & possible government shutdown are in focus this week." --- NYT 3/13/2025

Can Trump regime produce truthful economic data?

Will deficit hawks like Tea Partiers vote "Yes' on budget?

What will Trump do during a shutdown? More of same or worse?

Zelenskyy cannot trust Trump any more than Putin; deal or no deal. If he shakes hands on a deal with Trump, he’d better count his fingers and continue vigilant defenses fore and aft.
