It Can Not be Stated Any Clearer Than This:
FDR Saved America With His "New Deal." Drumpf Slays America With His "Raw Deal."
Because those billionaire tax cuts and billion dollar SpaceX contracts aren't going to pay for themselves, you know?
We have arrived at the stealing food from America's elderly to fund proposed billionaire tax cuts phase of Drumpf's rancid, illegitimate regime.
Drumpf voters think this shit, these massive, one fell swoop federal job cuts, agency closures and shutdowns, program funding cancellations, providing he gets away with it which it looks like he will, aren't going to affect them, or affect their communities. Boy are they in for a rude and painful awakening.

You know what fucking irks the living shit out of me? Biden's long-term economic vision had all of the helpful and successful government programs like 'Meals on Wheels' adequately funded while also reducing the deficit. And while yes, it did involve taxing guys like Elmo, Zuckerterd, Bezos, and Soros a little bit more, the fact of the matter is that it was working and the economy was steadily improving when he left office. And it would have kept working for the good of the most people in this country if Orange Mussolini hadn't regained power and unceremoniously pulled the plug on the surging success of Biden's economic policies.
Tellingly here, the solution of Elmo and Drumpf have employed is to essentially just defund it ALL, and let the law of the jungle prevail. Sink or swim bitches! That's their message to middle America. It's their message to farmers. It's their message to small business owners. It's their message to educators and decent, honorable public servants. It's their message to good, hard-working people who are just struggling to keep roofs over their heads, their kids clothed, and food on the table. All of which prompts me to ask the MAGAs how it can be that the indiscriminate, slash and burn governing policies of Drumpf and Elmo align so seamlessly with their cherished "pro-life" views?
The way I see it is that if these bastards can fund more of Elmo's wasteful government contracts, then they sure as hell can adequately fund a program to help grandma and grandpa and the disabled NOT starve to fucking death.

Drumpf's Economy is Just a Shitty Knock-Off of Putin's Russian Economy
The sonofabitch took a perfectly good, steadily recovering economy from Joe Biden and in less than three months in office he has that economy on the verge of crashing and burning not just here, but world-wide, all because of his stupid, stupid, stupid, childishly stupid fucking obsession with tariffs.
Keep a close eye on your 401k accounts folks, it's going to be a bloodbath for the average American investor and saver.
This is Drumpf's economy now. It's MAGA's economy now. They own every bit of what happens from here on out. Let's not forget it when it comes time to hold people accountable for the national economic disaster looming ahead.

Losing All Your Money "Means Nothing" Says Millionaire MAGA Apparatchik
Sadly, these are the kind of MAGA charlatans and fraudsters who have Drumpf's half-shot-off ear on the subject of managing the American economy.
Benny Johnson is a right-wing grifter and opportunist who has made a multi-millionaire living off of pimping fascist propaganda on social media sites. He is also incidentally, someone who took in at least $10 million in income from Russia in 2024 while helping promote MAGA and Drumpf in the 2024 election.
Here is Benny literally telling you MAGA dolts that you should be happy that your dear leader is crashing the US economy, as well as your financial well-being and your morally destitute American dreams, and that you should be praise-Jesus happy about it.
Do yourselves a huge favor folks - stop listening to these fucking rightwing assclowns. Stop patronizing their grifting, bullshitting social media accounts. Stop believing the disinforming nonsense and hateful messaging that they spew incessantly into our public discourse.
Tune them out, and for those who have truly seen the light about who and what the Benny Johnsons of this world are, tell these America-hating pricks to go fuck themselves too.

What "Words" Could Possibly Atone For Drumpf's Disgrace?
"No words?"
We'll I have some words.
Seriously - who is authentically shocked that Drumpf would rather hang out and play golf with his bonesaw murdering, Saudi oil sheikh "business partner" buddies at his Florida porn resort than perform his fucking duty as an American POTUS and Commander-in-Chief?
One of those duties, which Joe Biden or Barack Obama never failed at incidentally, is to show some solemn dignity and sincere respect to not only our fallen soldiers, but also to their families and friends, comrades, and to our military personnel in general by being available to receive the remains of fallen US soldiers being returned to America after having lost their lives abroad in service to their country.
I mean . . . and it infuriates me to no end that I even have to ask this question, but . . . is it really such a hard fucking thing to ask of this golf-playing, social media tweeting, draft-dodging pile of orange shit posing as a President, ffs? ๐ก
Link: https://www.rawstory.com/lithuania/
"President Donald Trump created an uproar Thursday evening after reports emerged that he would skip the dignified transfer of the four U.S. soldiers who died in Lithuania for a golf event.
NBC News reported that Trump would not be present when the fallen soldiers arrive at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware after they were killed when their vehicle sank during a training exercise last month. Instead, heโll be several hundred miles away at his Doral golf course in Miami, taking part in a LIV Golf dinner reception.
The president attending a golf tournament over the dignified transfer of the U.S. military members shocked โ and angered โ critics."
It goes without saying that those Americans who continue to defend him and yet publicly proclaim their "support for the troops" are just plain out and out shameless hypocrites.

DonOld Drumpf: Champion of Horrible Humans the World Over
Drumpf once again comes to the defense of a criminal. Apparently it's one of his favorite leisure activities.
Marine Le Pen, France's female version of Drumpf, was unanimously convicted by a jury of her French countrymen for criminal acts, not at all unlike how Drumpf himself was unanimously convicted by a jury of his fellow Americans for his criminal acts.
As with his own criminal conviction, DonOld and his screeching MAGA toadies are crying "witch hunt" in Le Pen's case. Don't these MAGA choads ever tire of crying and blubbering over perceived and manufactured right-wing persecution? My God these people are such wearying fucking whiners.
But anyway, it really does say something about Drumpf's own personal integrity that he continues to champion con artists and crooks like Le Pen while shitting on people who are more decent and honorable than he or his brainless, dickless supporters could ever hope to be.

The American Dream Gets Laid Off by Drumpf and Elmo
If you were wondering how and why the Drumpf/MAGA candidate for the open state Supreme Court seat in Wisconsin got the shit kicked out of them the other night in that state-wide election, this is why:
This past month, the United States saw the third-highest number of worker layoffs occur in the recorded history of the nation. 80% of those job cuts came at the order of Elon's DOGE committee. And all of this has occured before yesterday's big announcement of Drumpf's disastrous tariffs plan which is certain to destroy even more American jobs and will be one of the largest ever direct tax hikes on American workers and consumers.
The people who voted for and continue to support Drumpf are going to become accessories to his crime of murdering the American dream.

Tariffs Are Indeed a Tax on Consumers as Americans Are About to Discover
Brace yourselves Ma and Pa MAGA. Here comes the economic pain that your dear leader promised he would deliver to us all.
When this economic pain visits the households of Drumpf's voting bloc, I don't want to hear a goddamn complaining word out of any of them. Nor do I want to hear them whining that it's all the fault of Joe Biden and the Democrats. This is all on Drumpf. It's all on MAGA. It's all on MuskRat. It's all on a clown college Trumpublican-controlled House and Senate. The economic shitshow that these clowns are unleashing on the country is 100% their handcrafted shitshow.
Drumpf, with the help of Elmo and the Republican party, is selling out the economic futures of your kids and grandkids folks. These bastards have aligned themselves with the billionaire broligarchs and right wing foreign interests to do their bidding and it will have the effect of triggering a deep recession that will devastate millions of families and communities and will financially benefit the already top of the ladder super wealthy like Elmo, Bezos, Zuckerterd, and their obscenely affluent friends.
Take care to remember that in all the upcoming state and national elections.
Link: https://www.rawstory.com/trump-tariffs-2671664736/
"Global financial markets were rocked on Wednesday by Donald Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs, targeting China and the European Union in particular, with the risk of undermining the international economy.
The US president laid out the new measures after Wall Street stock markets had closed. But his announcement still rippled through the markets that were open at the time, sending stock futures and bond yields lower, while gold surged to a new record high.
- Stocks struggle -
As the evening progressed, US futures fell sharply, with the Dow Jones dropping 2.4 percent at around 2345 GMT, the Nasdaq index plunging 4.2 percent, and the broader futures index for the S&P 500 falling 3.5 percent."

The Taming of Unbridled Hubris - A Charming Tale of Comeuppance
Want to hear a truly feel-good story folks?
Well, pull up a chair, sit back, and listen to this one. It will tickle you pink.
The wealthiest, nazi-saluting human on planet Earth was tasked by a certain, well known convicted felon to use his amassed wealth to rig an election for a state supreme court justice seat in the state of Wisconsin because, you know, he's a convicted felon and a dictator wannabe and that is pretty much what convicted felons and dictator wannabes do in their leisure time.
Anyway, the wealthiest, nazi-saluting human on planet Earth swoops into the state of Wisconsin this past week with his army of weirdo groupies, waving around $1 million bribe checks under the noses of Wisconsin voters enticing them to commit to voting for the state supreme court justice candidate favored by himself and the convicted felon.
During his week in Wisconsin, the wealthiest, nazi-saluting human on planet Earth spent $25 million of his vast reserves of billions mightily attempting to convince Wisconsin voters that their vote for the candidate favored by himself and the convicted felon would determine the "destiny of humanity." Stop laughing - he seriously did say that.
So the election was last night. The favored candidate of the wealthiest, nazi-saluting human on planet Earth and his convicted felon buddy was soundly defeated and decisively rejected by Wisconsin voters.
Now doesn't that make you feel just peachy keen wonderful? ๐
Thank you for patronizing today's episode of Gadfly Storytime.

Seriously - WTF??
In what world but the dementia and brain fever ravaged world of Donald Drumpf do PBS and NPR suddenly become "MONSTERS" and enemies of the people?
If any of my MAGA acquaintances can rationally explain how publicly denigrating and attacking public television and radio in this manner is all part of Drumpf's plan to "Make America Great Again," I would truly love to hear your take on that.
That's all. Thanks.
