Told ya soโฆ thin skinned narcissists hold grudges beyond healthy reflection - they nurse them until they become a core raison d'รชtre; this is your โpresidentโ, America. The contrast w a true leader, Obama, couldnโt be starker.

Just more data confirming that we havenโt actually had a โmassโ illegal immigration issue since the mid 2000s or so. The numbers of deportees that Miller dreams about are only possibly if you revoke asylum and even naturalized citizenship.

The Soviets lost the Cold War, but now Trump is surrendering to them 35 yrs later.
The Confederate traitors lost the Civil War, but now Trump is surrendering to them 160 yrs later.
The only flag Trump and MAGA should fly is a white one.

This image starkly depicts some of the parallels between Mao's Cultural Revolution of the 1960s and Felon 47( F47)โs actions in 2025. The Cultural Revolution (or the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution) took place from 1966 to 1976 in China. Mao urged the party to cleanse itself of its โclass enemiesโ: โcapitalistsโ such as landowners and shopkeepers, but also artists, farmers and university professors. Often their family members were tainted by association and persecuted. Gangs of students and Red Guards attacked people wearing โbourgeois clothesโ on the street. Intellectuals and party officials were murdered or driven to suicide. Schools and universities were closed and churches, shrines, libraries, shops and private homes ransacked or destroyed. Chinaโs economy was violently destroyed. In 2025, F47โs actions are similar. He has used the DOJ to attack institutions of higher education and science research- Harvard and Columbia are examples. New NIH policies are forcing individual recipients and institutions to โcertifyโ that they will not allow DEI related programs of activities. This is a new flavor of authoritarianism. Even the Chinese see it: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/business/china-donald-trump-cultural-revolution.html This image is from: https://substack.com/home/post/p-160185300 Here is a good article: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/may/11/the-cultural-revolution-50-years-on-all-you-need-to-know-about-chinas-political-convulsion
๐งชWhat did Felon 47 accomplish 100 days? Tanked the stock market. Displayed economic illiteracy. Crippled academic institutions and life saving science research. Went after the NIH, DEI, academic journals. Hired incompetent loyalists. Spread propaganda. We have a destructive fascist government.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"
