The Planet's Wealthiest Individual Is No Friend of America or Democracy

Based on the events of this past week, I know I'm not the only one on this planet starting to come around pretty quickly to the idea of this being a necessary antidote to MuskRat's election meddling and Ukraine ratfuckery:

 

Link:  'Should be arrested': ​Capitol Hill demand targets Musk as misinformation floods midterms - Raw Story 

 

"WASHINGTON — With the midterm elections just around the corner, misinformation and disinformation are flying in key battleground states.

While a lot of attention has gone to combating election interference efforts from President Donald Trump and his allies, not enough attention has been paid to the powerful misinformation campaigns already underway from MAGA faithful like Elon Musk.

With Musk spending roughly $366 million on this year’s midterms, according to the New York Times, Democrats are resigned to an onslaught of lies and distortions between now and Nov. 3 — but they say they have a hyperlocal antidote to these national distortion efforts.

Musk isn’t just spending big in 2026. His critics say he’s funding distortion efforts.

“Register to Vote” greets visitors to VoteSafe.org, a site run by Musk’s America PAC, even though voters can’t register to vote there. Critics have noted its similarity to the nonprofit voter information site Vote.org, and its privacy policy allows America PAC to sell users’ data. Election officials in several states have warned voters about America PAC’s messaging, though the group did not respond to questions from the Associated Press."  

 

Indict, arrest, perp walk, jail cell.

That's the antidote to MuskRat's 'trillionaire' funded underhanded scheming attempts to alter the outcome of this American election and for colluding with Drumpf to help Putin slaughter more Ukrainian civilians.

Oh - and steer clear of Musky's data-mining, fake voter "registration" site which is not a voter registration site at all.

Stick with Vote.org which is run by reputable sources.

Are Pooty-Poot, Drumpf, and MuskRat the 21st Century Axis of Evil? Its Kinda Looking That Way...

The 'T' word as it relates to the current state of affairs in the American White House is finally making it's way in to the mainstream political discourse in this country and all I can say is it's about damn time.

The author of this piece is Steven Beschloss who is an award-winning writer, journalist and professor and is the brother of renowned US and American Presidential historian Michael Beschloss.

 

Link:  Donald Trump Is a Traitor - by Steven Beschloss 

 

"And he’s not simply a traitor in the loose sense of someone who commits an act of betrayal that makes clear they are not only not on your side but actively working to undermine your side. (“You traitor,” said the kid to his best friend after he started hanging out with the class bully.) Donald Trump is a traitor in the very particular sense laid out in the U.S. Constitution written and agreed to in 1787.

This can be found in the clause pertaining to treason, Article III, Section 3, as follows: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.”"

 

The events of the past couple of weeks clearly show Drumpf giving aid and comfort to Vladimir Putin's mass murdering criminal regime.

And he is doing so while violating the recently passed 'Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026' law:

 

Link:  Trump waives key Russia-related sanctions, tariffs before they take effect under new law | Reuters

  

"WASHINGTON, Oct 17 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump waived key ​Russia-related US sanctions and tariffs days before they were to take effect under a law he signed last month, including duties on ‌the country's goods and penalties for buying its oil and gas.

In an executive order released by the White House on Friday, Trump said the waiver was in the national interests of the United States."

 

What "national interests?"

The rising cost of gas and diesel?  Rising costs that were directly caused by DonOld's own foolish decision to listen to Netanyahu's urging and take America to war against Iran, and which is now a thorn in his side three weeks before this critical election?  Those "national interests?"

Trying to give the illusion to voters three weeks before a historic and pivotal elections that will determine if America goes the way of fascist Trumpism, or returns to it's democracy-based roots, that gas and diesel prices will drop significantly by Drumpf making these clandestine "deals" with Putin's Russia, when in fact nothing of the sort will occur, is peak Drumpf charlatanism.

And that charlatanism is rapidly exposing Drumpf's fealty to the Russian butcher and he doesn't even appear to be trying to hide it anymore.

It also does not help matters that Drumpf was caught this past week colluding with his fellow 'Epstein Files' alumni Elmo MuskRat to degrade Ukraine's internet access which literally blinded Ukraine's defenses to incoming Russian ballistic missiles and rocket drones which resulted in dozens of Ukrainian civilian deaths and injuries and yet more smashed Ukrainian civilian infrastructure:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Link:  Elon Musk and Trump Were Both in on Ukraine Starlink Shutoff | The New Republic 

 

"Tech CEO Elon Musk reportedly approached President Trump on slowing down his Starlink communications service in Ukraine earlier this week, contradicting both Musk’s statement that it was Trump’s idea and Trump’s statement that he has no idea who did it.

The Telegraph, citing four anonymous sources, reports that Musk proposed slowing down Starshield, the military-grade version of Musk’s Starlink satellite communications system, and that Trump agreed. The move hindered Ukraine’s drone defenses of Russian attacks, and came while Trump is upset with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s decision to target Russian oil refineries and infrastructure after Trump lifted sanctions on Russian fuel. After Ukraine’s Starlink access was restricted, Russia launched a massive aerial attack on Wednesday that continued into the next morning.

Shortly afterward, Musk directed blame at the Trump administration, saying that “Starshield systems are owned and controlled” by the federal government and “any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS.” An unnamed source told The Telegraph that after the “night of carnage” in Kyiv, Musk was reportedly scared that he would face a backlash from consumers in Europe." 

 

Muskrat already has blood on his hands with his USAID destruction.  He now apparently has chosen to add some Ukrainian blood to those tiny little Nazi saluting hands.

All of this ratfuckery brings us to a level where the American people need to begin having some serious conversations about the 'T' word as it relates to Drumpf's decision to stab Ukraine in the back and roll over like a well-trained mutt for a mass-murdering, wanted war criminal, and enemy nation of this country, because the excuses that are being given for doing this by Drumpf and his quislings are not only failing to pass the proverbial smell test, they are putting the hideous and debilitating stench from DonOld's shit-filled diaper to utter shame.

Americans Came Very Close to Having a Sex-Trafficker as Their Nation's Attorney General

This is the MAGA creep who was Donald Trump's first choice to be the Attorney General of the United States of America, the highest law enforcement position in the country:

 

Link:  Ex-Rep. Gaetz accused of supplying women with drugs for sex | Miami Herald

 

"Two women have filed a federal civil lawsuit accusing former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz and two others of participating in an alleged sex trafficking scheme involving young women, drugs and traveling across state lines.

The allegations are the latest chapter in Gaetz’s high-profile sex scandal that ultimately derailed his nomination by President Trump as U.S. Attorney General and also led him to resign from Congress in 2024. His departure came as a bi-partisian House Ethics Committee was in the final stages of an investigation into his alleged misconduct.

The 33-page complaint, filed Monday in the Middle District of Florida, details how the former Congressman used two of his friends, now-convicted ex-Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg, and former Florida GOP House member Christopher Dorworth, to coordinate the recruitment of young women whom they supplied with drugs in order to facilitate sexual encounters, according to the lawsuit. The incidents occurred from 2017 to January 2019."

Link:  Matt Gaetz accused in suit of sex trafficking two women in Florida | US news | The Guardian 

 

"The Republican former congressman Matt Gaetz has been accused of participating in the sex trafficking of two young women in a civil lawsuit filed on Thursday in district court in Florida.

The allegations, which Gaetz denied in a statement to the Guardian, are the latest developments in a long-running sexual abuse scandal involving the politician who resigned from Congress in November 2024.

In the 38-page lawsuit, filed in US district court for the middle district of Florida, the women identified as Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 claim Gaetz and two others “coordinated the recruitment, payments, drugs, and travel to obtain commercial sexual acts” from them “during 2017 through January 2019”.

“The defendants collectively used their public office, power, and wealth to prey on the economic vulnerability of Plaintiffs to commit the acts,” according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit contends that the alleged victims “were recent high school graduates” at the time of the alleged misconduct."

 

I'm going to repeat the opening line of this post.

"This is the MAGA creep who was Donald Trump's first choice to be the Attorney General of the United States of America, the highest law enforcement position in the country."

And then some wonder why I have zero interest in entertaining the views of Republicans on the subjects of moral values, family values, and law and order.

It's quite simple actually.

I have no use whatsoever for the hypocritical lecturing of people who knowingly elected a convicted felon, a rapist, a likely pedophile, a coup-plotting traitor, and someone who appoints sex traffickers like Matt Gaetz to high positions in OUR government, as the leader of OUR nation.

Matt Gaetz is MAGA.  This is who MAGA is.  MAGA is a movement of bad people with bad, destructive ideas for this country.

Drumpf has a well-documented track-record of not hiring "only the best people" as he bragged he would, but instead hiring some of the sleaziest, scummiest, shadiest, most ethically-challenged people he could dredge up from his circle of corrupt "businessmen" cronies and the rancid cesspool of right-wing media (Fox) personalities and MAGA online influencers (aka - losers).

Matt Gaetz's attempted appointment was not an anomaly.  A clearly compromised, unfit candidate like Matt Gaetz is the rule, not the exception when it comes to Drumpf's stated claim of hiring "only the best people" for his corrupt, criminal regime.

MAGA's Penchant for Self-Injurious Voting Starts to Come Full Circle

Ma and Pa MAGA still don't get it. 

Even after a decade they are still under some kind of delusional spell believing that Drumpf takes their meager MAGA lives into even the slightest consideration with the things he does and the decisions he makes in his role as POTUS.

And if they haven't figured that out by now, they never will and truly are a hopeless cause:

 

Link:  Trump voters scold president to start ‘taking care of the people in your country’: NYT - Raw Story 

 

"Some voters who sent President Donald Trump back to the White House have a pointed message for him ahead of the midterms.

Grocery shoppers who backed Trump in 2024 told The New York Times for a Wednesday report that rising prices have left several of them frustrated, with a retired nurse in Maine telling the president, "you should be taking care of the people in your country."

Rebecca Guerrette, an independent, said she was unhappy with the economy and called the war with Iran a "waste of money." "I think Trump did a better job as president like eight years ago," Guerrette told The Times. She said living costs have climbed in recent years while paychecks have not kept pace, adding that she probably would not cast a ballot in the Senate race between Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Democrat Troy Jackson."

  

Everything that these Trump voters are now moaning about was predicted to happen by wiser people in this country.  

American voters were clearly warned of the consequences of re-electing the convicted felon and coup-plotting traitor back to the White House a second time in the run-up to the 2024 presidential election.

Sadly, the same blockheads who voted for the dirty old 'pussy-grabber' in 2016 refused to heed those warnings and voted for the traitorous old child molester a second time anyway because they are thoughtless Americans, and selfish people of deficient moral values.

And it goes without saying of course that everything that was predicted by the wiser Americans has come true, and now some of the the Trump voters are beginning to feel some pangs of regret for their 2024 vote.

These people don't actually regret having voted for the greasy old felon in 2024, mind you.

No, more than anything, they regret that their orange savior hasn't been entirely successful in following through on his promise to become America's first dictator and to 'cleanse' America of all the people who they collectively hate and view as less 'American' and less deserving to be here in this country than themselves.

And for that reason, nobody should give a flying fuck how much Ma and Pa MAGA are now suffering and upset that Drumpf is headlong in taking them down the road to economic ruin with his ill-advised Iran war, a war in the Middle East that, once again, smarter Americans warned him not to start, but he did anyway, and also with the stupid unilateral tariff wars that he launched and won't be able to finish because America will probably be in a Depression by the time he's done fucking around.

This is what the Ma and Pa MAGAs voted for in 2024 even after they were sufficiently warned that Drumpf was going to do this to them.

Kind of tells the whole story, huh? 

Sigh . . .

Drumpf's MAGA Goons "Fear" Prison For the Same Reason All Criminals Fear Prison

While I am happy that Stephen Miller is experiencing sleepless nights worrying about his future and wondering if he will die in prison, it must be pointed out yet again that if he and his fellow Drumpf enablers have not committed any crimes, then why would they be so openly fearful of going to prison at the end of Drumpf's term in office?:

 

Link:  Stephen Miller privately fears ‘prison cell’ awaits him despite Trump pardons: reports - Raw Story 

 

It's telling that Miller isn't the least bit concerned about being charged with federal crimes knowing full well that Drumpf is going to pardon all the wretched scum in his administration on his way out the door.

No, the racist little dildo-head is fretting about being charged with state crimes which presidential pardons do not apply to.

Miller knows that Drumpf is on borrowed time, and that a time of reckoning is coming for all of them for what they have done to this country.

Stephen Miller is right to be fearful.  Justice always prevails over injustice in the end, and the end of the Drumpf/MAGA shit show, horror show, freak show is clearly on the horizon as more Americans awaken from their stupor and begin to see these people for who they are, and their poisonous movement for what it is.

Miller is the chief architect of the ethnic cleansing policies of I*C*E.  People have needlessly died because of him.  Families have been torn apart and destroyed because of him.  American communities have been terrorized because of him.

So yeah, I'm happy that Miller and others around him are distressed about their fate once the mobbed-up old kiddie diddler is no longer in a position to protect them.  It is a good thing that they are scared.

Miller and every one of these bastards consciously chose to hitch their cabooses to Donald Trump's speeding crime train and now that the train is careening down the tracks out of control at a high rate of acceleration with a sharp curve just ahead, they are all wondering if they will survive the fiery wreck and pile-up they know awaits them.

Fuck them all if you ask me.  Accountability is coming, and Stephen Miller will get what he deserves in the end because if we don't make an example of these fascist thugs, it only emboldens them to continue their ratfucking fascist ways and to inflict ever more damage on our country.

Lies, Gaslighting, Conspiracies - All a Desperate Attempt to Distract From Drumpf's Malfeasance in Office

My God.

How much longer are we as a nation going to allow this vulgar, lying, un-American pig to degrade and slander large segments of our citizenry with impunity like this?: 

 

 

Link:  Post by @atrupar.com — Bluesky

 

"They want to cut your children.  It's unbelievable what they do.  Your son leaves as Jimmy and comes home in three days as Janet, and they don't even ask you.  They can take your child out of school and do whatever the hell they want.  Minnesota is one of those states." 

 

The fat, diaper-shitting traitor is spreading the MAGA cult rumor, of which not one fucking shred of evidence exists to support it, that the public schools (only in Democratic/blue states of course) are performing gender changing surgery on kids, without parent's consent, and sending them home as a gender different from their birth.

First things first.  Seriously, are we fucking mad?  Kids are going to school as boys and coming home as girls after unauthorized sex-change surgery was performed on them in the school nurse's office during the school day?  What kind of broken brains believe such whackadoodle horseshit to begin with?

Well, we know that the hardcore MAGAs do, mostly because the whole lot of them are dumber than pet rocks, but also because their loyalty to Drumpf is undying and persevering, and there isn't anything so outlandish and stupid that he could tell them that they would not automatically believe.

Secondly - he's slandering the state of Minnesota once more because the big fucking crybaby is utterly beside himself with rage that the people of that state have stood up to his and his criminal regime's tyranny over and over again and will continue to do so.

Enough with this fucking guy.

Vote his party out of power in November.  Then support his fucking impeachment and unceremonious removal from office.

That is how we end this MAGA circus side show and freak show and send Drumpf packing off to federal prison where he should have been put a long time ago.  And several of his parasitic gangster co-conspirators can join him there.

There's No Diplomatic Way to Say It - Drumpf's New Press Secretary is a Duplicitous Fraudster

Oh dear.

It looks like Drumpf's new blonde bimbo White House mouthpiece, er, Press Secretary who has only been on the job for three days is already in trouble with the law:

 

Link:  Trump spokeswoman faces potential prosecution for claiming to be lawyer: complaint - Raw Story 

 

"A watchdog group’s complaint to California’s state bar raised the possibility of prosecuting President Donald Trump’s new press secretary for repeatedly telling the public, “I’m a lawyer.”

Campaign for Accountability, a nonpartisan watchdog, filed the complaint Wednesday and asked the State Bar of California to investigate White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia. The group pointed to published reporting that Zacharia has never been licensed to practice law anywhere in the United States.

Under California law, anyone without an active state bar license who presents themselves as entitled to practice law commits a misdemeanor, a lower-level crime punishable by up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine, the group said."

 

Apparently this woman also has quite the eye-opening and nasty history of online posting that . . . well, let's put it this way, would and should disqualify anyone from public service at any level of our American government if we lived in saner times:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Link:  The Deleted Tweets of the New White House Press Secretary

 

"DONALD TRUMP’S NEW PRESS SECRETARY has had a sordid online history of spreading vaccine conspiracy theories, calling for the upending of constitutional norms, and encouraging the president to run for a third term in office—much of which she appears to have tried to expunge from the public record sometime before ascending to her new job.

For example, how committed is Zacharia to the rule of law? In a series of deleted tweets, she called for suspending habeas corpus, one of the oldest and most fundamental safeguards of individual liberty, in response to a tweet from White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller claiming sanctuary cities are a criminal conspiracy.

Or what about the constitutional standing of the states in our federal system? In a now-deleted tweet from June 2025 responding to Gov. Gavin Newsom, Zacharia argued that “The federal government under @realDonaldTrump should take over all of California because clearly you can’t be trusted to do a single thing.”

Zacharia’s posts also indicate deeply skeptical views about COVID, bordering on conspiracism. In August she reposted an article claiming that “8 in 10 women had a miscarriage after getting the COVID vaccine”—a statistic wildly at odds with actual scientific data.

Her tweets are a grab bag of right-wing talking points. In September 2025, Zacharia accused “leftist transgender assailants” of being responsible for “at least a dozen” school shootings. Last month, she called Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed—who was born and raised in the United States—“an indictment of our immigration system under Democrats.” Last week, she charged Chief Justice John Roberts with being “not even that conservative” and said his opinion in the birthright citizenship case “should have gotten him a seat back at those lib-tables.”

And in a podcast interview last year she insisted that the abortion pill mifepristone was the same chemical used in Nazi Germany extermination camps. It’s not."

 

I am not at all surprised that this President would hire one of his Fox "news" incubated, right-wing MAGA troll/groupies to be the public facing voice of his corrupt and criminal government. Nope, not surprised one teensy, weensy bit.

We've covered this ground many times here on the pages of this shitty little blog.

DonOld Drumpf purposely hires people to surround himself with not for their qualifications, but for their loyalty and their unquestioning obeisance to himself first and foremost, above everything else, including the law and the constitution.

As such, it stands to reason then that since good, decent, honorable, and qualified candidates for these admin positions would never in their right minds betray their oaths of office by pledging loyalty to a multi-indicted convicted felon, court-adjudicated rapist, and suspected child rapist, then the only kind of candidates remaining to hire are the subpar, indecent, dishonorable, and unqualified ones who have no moral qualms whatsoever about pledging their loyalty to and doing the bidding of a multi-indicted convicted felon, court-adjudicated rapist, and suspected child rapist.  Amiright?

This woman Katie Zacharia who is running around claiming to be an attorney/lawyer when she is nothing of the sort, is just the latest in a string of these cringe-worthy quisling hires by Drumpf, and she is proof in the flesh that the dirty old mobster does not give one shit about job qualifications, competency, or personal character in handing out these taxpayer-funded government jobs to his sycophants.

Hard to fucking believe it, but this is where we are at as a nation in the year 2026.

Drumpf's Penchant For Hiring Perfidious Characters Plumbs New Depths of Inanity With His Press Secretary Pick

"President Donald Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, opened up a new line of questions with an unexpected answer when asked where she had passed the bar exam.

Trump has described Zacharia as “an attorney,” and she has repeatedly done the same on national TV. But a new investigation by Popular Information’s Judd Legum found no evidence that she has ever been admitted to practice law in any state, and the question came up Tuesday after her debut press conference.

“Trump was asked what state Zacharia passed the bar exam,” Legum posted on X. “Trump deferred to Zacharia to answer. Zacharia said, ‘When I moved to China.’ Which makes absolutely no sense. She appears to waive away follow up questions.”"

  

So . . . and bear with me for a bit here because this shit is just utterly, bugshit insane.

So, for the few days since the dirty old mobster announced the selection of his new blonde bimbo White House Press Secretary to replace the previous blonde bimbo Press Secretary, the departed Karoline 'Machine-gun lips' Leavitt, Drumpf has been claiming that this Fox "news" alumni woman Katie Zacharia who he chose to replace Leavitt is an "attorney."

Zacharia herself has claimed she is an 'attorney' in TV interviews.

An independent investigation (because our billionaire press isn't up to the task) found that while Zacharia may have attended law school and has a law 'degree,' she has never, in any of the 50 U.S. states taken and passed a state bar exam to become an officially licensed 'attorney.'

Today a reporter asked Drumpf which US state Zacharia passed her bar exam to receive her legally sanctioned right to practice law as an 'attorney,' and with Zacharia standing behind, Drumpf just shrugs and points to Zacharia , who after mumbling something, blurts out, "When I moved to China."

I will let you dear readers soak that one in for a moment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 

"When I moved to China." 

Hmm.  So if I heard right, it sounds like the United States of America now has Russian and Chinese assets camped out in the American people's White House.  And God only knows which US adversary the mysterious, creepy Natalie Harp is an asset of.  I'm not sure I want to even find out.

Seriously though, I honestly fear the thought of, and wonder just how deeply the national security of this country has been compromised by these fucking charlatans and deceivers, endangering all of us.

I hope to God that we as a nation and people don't have to find out the answer to that question the hard way.

"When I moved to China."  JfC. 

For the love of all that is sacred and holy, if you care for the future of this country, vote these clowns and fraudsters out of power.  That is the only thing that will end this dangerous madness.

This country has an extremely mentally unwell individual residing in the American people's White House who has ready access to the nation's nuclear codes and none of the adults who surround him possess as much as an ounce of moral courage to speak up about it.

The MAGA dopes clapping like trained seals at the rank stupidity of a mentally unstable individual who is a convicted felon, who has been credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who is a serial adulterer, who was found by a US court to be a rapist, and who is highly suspected of being a pedophile based on his long-term relationship with one of the world's most notorious child sex traffickers, pretty much tells the whole story and everything Americans need to know about the kind of morality these people practice, which incidentally is the kind of morality they want to force on all of us.
