Trump admits he took another cognitive test.

They don’t just give those out for funsies.

He also says the NYT reporting on his heath is sedition and perhaps treason.

Whatever news he got must be awful.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I've stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an "aura" around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks - Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to "ace" this Examination and, in fact,

most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am "slowing up," am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am "slowing up," but it's not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it's seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean "THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES." They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful "source" of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! 908 ReTruths 3.07k Likes Dec 09, 2025, 9:11 PM

Couple of things here:

1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently

2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"

3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"

4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.

Trump's cognitive decline is so severe he cannot recognize that speaking about it in this way reveals the deficiencies

I'm basically a single issue voter in the next presidential primary: whichever candidate will take court reform the most seriously. You won't be able to govern without it.

Any Dem trifecta that does not abolish DHS and radically replace ICE/CBP is failing at its job.

Any Dem POTUS lacking a trifecta who does not use his own oversight powers to radically change ICE/CBP and investigate any not preemptively pardoned is also failing at their job.

They lied. Every one of them. It was obvious then and is sickening now …. In RFK’s case quite literally.

Cassidy suggests HHS is anti-science ahead of hepatitis B meeting - Roll Call Sen. Bill Cassidy said federal health officials might be biased agains science.

When asked on Wednesday why the panel would target the Hep B vaccine, Cassidy said of Kennedy’s HHS: “The best I can tell is that they have a prejudice against science. That’s the best I can tell.”

Umm...thanks, Bill. Any thoughts on why we are in this mess?

Pete Hegseth Should Be Charged With Murder No matter how you look at the strikes on alleged “drug boats”—as acts of war or attacks on civilians—Hegseth has committed a crime and should be prosecuted.

If we're not at war, Pete Hegseth is a murderer. If we are at war, Pete Hegseth is still a murderer. He's a murderer. And you don't need to go to The Hague to hold him accountable because there are perfectly good, American laws AGAINST MURDER.

Opinion | The Problem With Abolishing Property Taxes Suburban professionals want amenities, not austerity.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“Property taxes are an appropriate way to fund local services and public amenities,” Aaron Renn writes. “Attacking them will cost Republicans the educated voters and suburbanites they need to win — and govern.”

It's wild but not surprising that last week the White House was leaning into "these seditious Democrats dared suggest that troops were receiving illegal orders!!!" and this week they are scrambling to figure out who to blame for issuing illegal orders.

NEWS: Democrat Mary Robichaux has defeated Republican incumbent Kurt Wilson in a runoff election to become the next Mayor of Roswell, Georgia. A major upset and another sign of shifting suburban politics in the South.

Trump, 79, Spotted With Latest Addition to Bruised Hand The president was trying to keep his hands hidden for a reason.

President Donald Trump was curiously sporting two large Band-Aids on his right hand during Tuesday’s Cabinet meeting.

Nick has been on this story since Day One. Vital coverage from a phenomenal reporter @theintercept.com

Pete Hegseth has a long record advocating for war crimes to be permissible.

can't be said enough times -->

This is the most corrupt, lawless administration in the history of the United States and there’s no close second.

To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

This is exactly what you do
With presidents who coup

60 Attorneys on the Year of Chaos Inside Trump’s Justice Department (Gift Article) Sixty former staffers describe an environment of suspicion and intimidation within the nation’s most powerful law enforcement agency.

Absolutely no way to read this and not conclude that the Department of Justice has been deeply corrupted. And this is from a time when career lawyers were in place, pushing back against illegality. With firings and resignations, the politicization will just get worse.

The President Who Cried ‘Hoax’ Republicans went after Epstein only when it was politically useful.

The Epstein files were the most important issue in the world for Republicans—until they weren’t, Adam Serwer argues.

They're running from it now. But the fact that Senate Republicans tried to give 10 of their colleagues at least $1 million each for nothing but a bogus press op captures the corruption of Trump II. In no other environment wld this even occur to the most corrupt politicians.

FACT CHECK: TRUE

Investigate whoever he wants. Trumps drowning on every front.

A graphic from the front page of the WSJ, titled, "The Epstein Email Cache: 2,300 Messages, Many of Which Mention Trump." Using blue does it compares how many of the email threads released by Oversight are about various people. 1,670 are about Trump. 207 mention Michael Wolff. 155 Kathryn Ruemmler, 117 Larry Summers, and 512 Clinton.

Wild graphic on front page of WSJ.

Between the Epstein shit and the NYT glamorization of Olivia Nuzzi -- idealizing her as a female journalist -- this week is just... I can't

And don't EVER forget that #TheMangoMussolini was the President & we now know that Epstein had the goods on him.
