I'm optimistic. He passes the Laura Loomer test.

This hasn't aged well.

THE PATIENT IS FLATLINING!

Трамп's post from 18 hours ago has not aged well. The patient is flatlining!

If the stock market is any indicator, a lot of people are recognizing that Трамп is not guiding the America towards greatness - Трамп is guiding us down the toilet.

This will be my last one on the insane #TrumpTariffs 🤡 show for now.

Even his inner circle knows.

Complete and utter hypocrites!

Please share widely.

YouTube video by ONEST NETWORK Republican Congressman quotes Joseph Goebbels in hearing

WTF. I can't even make sense out of it. Why isn't the entire population, minus a few Nazis, enraged?

How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy in 53 Days He used the constitution to shatter the constitution.

I think it's correct to say the U.S. is now under a fascist regime. I'd be interested in hearing the arguments to the contrary. This was written before Трамп was sworn in. Very prescient, Трамп is drawing heavily from Hitler's playbook.

God I love Pete. Does anyone explain things so succinctly? More broadly, I love his ability to so clearly point out the hypocrisy of the MAGAs.

Call me crazy, but I thought we were great when we were the leader of the Free World.

The Fed holds interest rates steady as it tries to figure out the Trump economy | CNN Business The Federal Reserve on Wednesday kept interest rates unchanged as central bank officials weigh the impact of President Donald Trump’s aggressive economic agenda.

BREAKING: The Federal Reserve has cut its U.S. growth forecast, now projecting just 1.7% GDP growth this year. Expect higher inflation as a result of Trump’s tariffs.

Are you tired of winning yet?

I guess that depends on your definition of doom.

Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more. Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..."

Robert Morris, former Texas megachurch pastor and Trump adviser, indicted for child sex crimes Morris is a former spiritual adviser to President Donald Trump, and Gateway — one of the nation’s largest megachurches — has been particularly active in Dallas-area GOP politics.

I'd guess Trump just pardons the child molester.

If Canada and Mexico offered up some kind of residency/pathway to citizenship for fired federal workers or other folks looking to leave America they could tailor those requirements however best suited their needs and it would be a huge windfall.

Hint, hint

Can you say AUTHORITARIAN:
“All Federal Funding will STOP for any School that allows illegal protests, Agitators will be imprisoned/or permanently sent back to the country from which they came. American students will be permanently expelled or, depending on the crime, arrested. NO MASKS!”

I shared this note with the owner of the Washington Post this morning.

NEW: DOJ once said Trump’s pardon clearly did not apply to unrelated crimes by Jan. 6 defendants — like possessing guns, drugs, grenades and classified info

This week it changed course saying most (but not all) are pardoned. A judge is demanding answers. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Donald Trump is going to order his own arrest? This is ridiculous.”
-- Dan Bongino

How the hell is this okay?

“My recommendation is Donald Trump should ignore this [court order]... who is going to arrest him? The marshals? You guys know who the U.S. Marshals work for? The Department of Justice, that is under the — oh yeah, the executive branch.

The Authoritarian Playbook - Protect Democracy Today’s authoritarian playbook is a process that happens piecemeal and is hard to distinguish from normal political jockeying.

Better bring it if you're appearing in U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes's courtroom. DOJ attorney Jason Lynch did not.
