Drumpf and Kegsbreath are on the Precipice of Doing Something Very Stupid

As I have stated previously on the pages of this shitty little blog, if Drumpf launches a ground war in Iran, it is going to have lasting consequences for every single American in this country - except for the "friends" of DonOld:

Robert A. Pape is a well-known professor of political science whose areas of expertise are in national and international security affairs, air power, political violence, social media propaganda, and terrorism.  If what he is observing indicates an "imminent" large-scale attack on Iran, he should probably be listened to.

The actions that Drumpf and Hegseth have already taken in Iran alongside Israel are unlawful, unconstitutional actions and both of them should be impeached for it and criminally charged by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Putting American boots on the ground in Iran and involving the United States in yet another generational 'forever war' (think Vietnam) by a lying, felonious mobster who is selling this country out to the wealthiest and sleaziest and most anti-American bidders (think Putin, Xi, and the Saudis), should inspire every American who cares about this nation's future to loudly demand their representatives remove the dirty old mobster from office.

But sadly - both the House and Senate are currently controlled by literally the most morally bankrupt, cowardly, and nihilistic and selfish crop of Republican politicians that I have ever seen in my nearly half a century of observing American politics.

And it's not just that these MAGA Republicans are moral cowards for prostrating themselves at the feet of a rapist and suspected child rapist, it's that they are willfully dishonest cowards while doing so.

Republican politicians, and to a large extent Republican voters in this country, seem to have assimilated Drumpf's moral values (hint: he has none), one of which is chronic lying, into their own already faltering moral values belief system, and now here we are.

Drumpf has:

๐Ÿ“Œ Conspired with other MAGAs (Bondi, Patel, Blanche, etc.) to violate the core legal edict of the 2025 'Epstein Files Transparency Act' (law) by refusing to release ALL of the Epstein files documents, photos, videos, etc. to the US Congress and the American people.  They are still in violation of that law as of today having released only half the material.

๐Ÿ“Œ Had his tariffs declared ILLEGAL (SCOTUS decision), and his economic policies have vastly increased the wealth of his billionaire friends while crushing the middle class and working poor, all the while his 'Big Beautiful Bill' takes from those in need and gives to those who have no need (more of those MAGA moral values).

๐Ÿ“Œ Transformed a previously innocuous border security agency (ICE) into a personal masked and armed mercenary army who are illegally breaking into citizen's homes without warrants, terrorizing neighborhoods in large urban areas, ignoring court orders, brutalizing people, and murdering American citizens in cold blood in broad daylight.

๐Ÿ“Œ Used the office of the American presidency for personal financial gain and also allowed his crooked offspring (Cokehead Jr., Eric the Lesser, Jarvanka) to do the same. 

๐Ÿ“Œ Misused and abused his powers of office by turning the DOJ into a personal vendetta agency against his perceived enemies and anyone who dares cross him, or even just criticize him (Jimmy Kimmel for ie.).

๐Ÿ“Œ Promoted himself on social media as a 'Jesus-figure' with magical healing powers, and has compared himself to fatally flawed historical figures like 'Julius Caesar' and 'Alexander the Great.'

๐Ÿ“Œ Demanded construction of a gigantic, billion dollar plus golden 'ballroom' with a bomb-proof bunker beneath it in honor of himself on the spot where he ILLEGALLY demolished the historic White House East Wing.  He previously stated his "friends" would pay for it, but now is demanding that American taxpayers pick up the tab.

And of course, he now has: 

๐Ÿ“Œ Illegally usurped the powers of Congress by taking the nation to war without their advice and consent, much less the advice and consent of 'We The People' and our treaty allies who might be affected by such a war. 

I highly doubt that the American people are prepared for the blowback toward this country if Drumpf starts a land invasion of Iran, and possibly the triggering event for World War 3.

The Party of Convicted Felons Swells It's Ranks

Yet another Florida Republican joins the ranks of convicted felons.

You know, perhaps we've got ICE going after the wrong criminals in this country?  Considering the number of Republican politicians convicted of felonies in this country, maybe we ought to be rounding up and deporting their fat, greasy asses instead?  Just a thought...

"NEW YORK, May 1 (Reuters) - Former U.S. Congressman David Rivera was found guilty on Friday of illegally lobbying ​U.S. officials to ease pressure on ousted Venezuelan ‌President Nicolas Maduro's government.

  • Rivera's conviction came after a six-week trial in federal court in Miami, which featured testimony from U.S. Secretary ​of State Marco Rubio.
  • Rivera, a Republican who represented ​southern Florida in the U.S. House of Representatives ⁠from 2011 to 2013, pleaded not guilty. His lawyer ​did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
  • Prosecutors ​said Rivera lobbied U.S. officials on behalf of Venezuela's government in 2017 without registering as a foreign lobbyist as required by ​the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
  • He was paid $20 million by ​the U.S. subsidiary of a Venezuelan state-owned company, prosecutors said."

   

It truly is a political party comprised mostly of crooks, liars, coup-plotters, and pedophile enablers.

Convince me I'm wrong.

King DonOld Blubbers Madly About James Comey's Seashells

The fact that he has been manically posting shit like this non-stop since the alleged "assassination" attempt on him at last Saturday's White House Correspondent's Association (WHCA) dinner does nothing but cast further suspicion on the incident:

 

 


 

There were eleven attempts on former President Barack Obama's life foiled during his eight years in office.

Not once was Obama compelled to rush to social media and post 24x7, week-long tirades about how right-wing forces were trying to '86', or kill him, which btw they were.

Add to that the fact that Drumpf and his minions are coordinating their messaging on demanding the dismissal of a federal court order halting the construction of Donny's Big Beautiful Golden Ballroom because of the WHCA incident and you can see why many Americans aren't fully buying in to the Drumpf/MAGA narrative surrounding the supposed "assassination attempt."

Watch for the voices of MAGA and Drumpf to get even more shrill now that their WHCA "assassination attempt" story line is beginning to slowly disintegrate along with DonOld's claims that former FBI Director James Comey wanted to "kill him."

 

In other US news this week...

The British King paid a visit to the American wannabe King:

 

 

I think DonOld needs a little remedial instruction on the proper protocol for dining with visiting royalty. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Lying Liars and the Lies They Tell - Smug Dishonesty is a Feature, Not a Bug of MAGA Politics

How do you combat a political party whose entire political platform is constructed on easily disprovable lies?

Watch as MAGA Republican Steve Scalise goes on conservative Joe Kernen's CNBC show and attempts to gaslight Kernen's audience about gas prices in the U.S.:

 


Link:  Post by @atrupar.com — Bluesky

  

The reason why Republican politicians like Steve Scalise lie publicly to your faces like this is twofold.

First - they know that a sizable segment of the MAGA voting base are truly dumber than rocks and will essentially believe any bullshit story that Drumpf and his toadies peddle to them.

Secondly, they lie because if they were to actually tell the truth about who their party really is, and who their party really serves, the Republicans would never win another election in this country.  In short - they have to deliberately and knowingly lie to survive as a political party.

And of course it speaks volumes that strategic lying has become such an ingrained feature of MAGA politics that they don't even care any more how brazen the lies are and how effortless it is to debunk those lies. 

If a politician looks you straight in the face and lies to you like Steve Scalise does in this interview with Joe Kernen, then the next question you should be asking yourselves is - what else are they lying to you about?

Why Are DonOld's Assassination Attempts Always So Convenient for DonOld?

Two very relevant things that need to be pointed out regarding last Saturday's alleged 'shooting' and 'assassination' attempt on Dear Leader's life at the White House Correspondent's Dinner in Washington D.C.

First - multiple reports are coming out that security at the Hilton hotel where the event takes place, and has taken place for almost fifty years, was extremely lax last Saturday evening, which makes no sense considering the American President, his Vice President and several members of his cabinet were in attendance, all in the same room together.

Was that lax security by design?  Don't roll your eyes.  When it comes to these scandalous mobsters, it is entirely within the realm of possibility:

 


Link:  Jaw-Dropping Security Revelation Emerges After WHCD Chaos

 

"The Trump administration only provided a relatively low level of security at Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, where a gunman allegedly tried to kill President Donald Trump and members of his Cabinet, according to a report.

The suspected gunman, identified as 31-year-old Cole Allen, stormed through a checkpoint before being taken down by armed agents outside the ballroom where Trump and other top federal officials were attending the black-tie event.

Sources told The Washington Post that, under normal circumstances, when the president and several top Cabinet officials are gathered in one place, plans would be in place for the Secret Service to coordinate all security through a formal designation known as a “National Special Security Event.

However, no such designation was in place for Saturday’s WHCA dinner. Instead, law enforcement officials told the Post that the Secret Service considered only the ballroom and the immediate perimeter around it to be the areas it would protect on Saturday, not the entire hotel."

 

How very convenient for the MAGA narrative, no?

More so when you take in to consideration just how quickly Drumpf and his MAGA stooges began flooding social media in the immediate aftermath of the incident labeling it as an attempt to assassinate Drumpf.

They also wasted no time demanding that the federal court order that has stopped the construction of DonOld's big, beautiful ballroom be dismissed, and that poor, aggrieved DonOld be allowed to proceed with building his memorial to his own perceived greatness so that he can be protected from the dregs of American society by bomb-proof, gold leafed walls, seven-inch think bullet proof glass, and surrounded by a small army of bunker protecting shock troops - not at all unlike every other banana republic dictator on this planet.

But oops!  There's another slight problem though that has cropped up which calls into question the story that Drumpf and his MAGA minions have spun up around this WHCA incident.

Apparently, evidence is beginning to emerge that the alleged 'shooter' never fired a shot at all, and that all of the gunfire came from Drumpf's own security people.  And if that is the case, then the report of one of the Secret Service detail being shot in the chest and saved by his bullet-proof vest means that agent was shot by one of his own colleagues:

 


Link:  Startling possibility exposed as Trump press dinner shooting narrative cracks: analyst - Raw Story

  

"A political analyst flagged a startling possibility as reports indicate the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner may not have happened as it seemed.

On Saturday, reports indicated that a lone alleged gunman, Cole Allen, rushed through security at the Washington Hilton and fired multiple rounds, striking one Secret Service agent, before being apprehended by law enforcement. The rounds allegedly were fired multiple floors below where the press, President Donald Trump, and members of Trump's cabinet were located.

But new reporting indicates that Allen may not have fired a shot inside the hotel, according to David Pakman, host of his eponymous YouTube show. Pakman discussed the incident in a new reaction video on Wednesday.

"It is possible, ladies and gentlemen, that the shooter fired no shots, that law enforcement fired five or six shots, and that the Secret Service officer who was struck by a bullet might have been struck by friendly fire," Pakman said.

The Washington Post reported on Wednesday that video evidence the outlet reviewed included "no indication ... that Allen fired his weapon, though authorities have charged him with discharging a firearm during a crime of violence."" 

 

Doesn't it make you wonder, just a little bit even, why at a time when Drumpf's public poll numbers are cratering, his decision to join Bibi's Big Iran Armageddon Adventure is blowing up in his face, and questions still swirl around his role as child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's sidekick for two decades, that DonOld and his people were so eager and quick to claim that this deranged individual fired shots inside the hotel and that he was aiming to kill Drumpf even before a preliminary investigation had begun?

The area inside the D.C Hilton where the alleged 'shooting' occurred is several floors beneath and a fair distance away from the ballroom where the WHCA event was taking place.  So my question then to the MAGA chuds is - how could Drumpf have been in danger when there were layers of hotel infrastructure and White House security between him and this alleged "shooter" who apparently never fired a shot?

Things to think about as this problematic story unfolds.

One thing is clear.  Americans cannot believe a single fucking word that comes from this administration and their toadies.  Their words are worthless and anyone putting faith in them is a goddamn fool.

And Now For Something Completely Different Than the Usual Drumpf Horridness

Since the banner of this shitty little blog does advertise "Humor and Music" along with the "Politics," I'm going to use this post to step away from the Drumpf/MAGA horror show for a change and honor that banner advertising.

So without further adieu, let's start off with one of my favorite YouTube ensemble groups, 'Sing it Live' doing smoking cover versions of hit songs by Meat Loaf and Fleetwood Mac:

 


 

 


 

They're good huh?  Go check out their YouTube page, they've got a ton of similar high quality, kick-ass videos.

And as for the 'Humor' interlude . . . well, I truly do have to go with my all-time favorite, a guy who could make you laugh while simultaneously making you think about just how crazy and fucked up things are in this country we live in.  I speak of course of the inimitable, and one and only, George Carlin: 

 


 

Nobody could explain just how badly and brazenly the oligarchs of this country have rigged the 'system' against average, hard-working Americans, regardless of political affiliation, and make you double over in laughter while doing so than George.  He was an unmatched legend, pure and simple.

And there you have it.  Truth in banner advertising:

The Second Comey Indictment is Pure Drumpf Spite - And an Embarrassing Travesty for Justice

If you've got an hour of time to burn and are open to watching a concise, clinical, and colorful rundown of exactly why Drumpf's ordering his DOJ to criminally indict former FBI Director James Comey for a second time will go down quickly in embarrassing and shameful flames, here's Hawk to explain it like only Hawk can:

 


 

James Comey most certainly is a skunk for his role in the bogus 'Hillary's emails' ratfuckery, but Drumpf's newest indictment "should" get shamefully demolished just like the first indictment was as Hawk explains in the video.

It's just a disgraceful fucking show of corruption and misuse and abuse of power by the most corrupt POTUS in this nation's history and the people who continue to support Drumpf are essentially supporting someone who is transforming the United States of America into an authoritarian, banana republic shithole country.

'Drumpf the Great' or 'DonOld Caesar' - Will There be a Similar Historical Denouement?

Umm . . . who wants to educate the ignorant old mobster?

 


Link:  Trump's latest 'terrifying' admission reveals something dark on the horizon: analysts - Raw Story

 

"A series of leaks that made it into the newspapers on Wednesday about how President Donald Trump talks about himself behind closed doors alarmed a pair of political analysts.

Nico Hines, host of "The Daily Beast Podcast," discussed a new report from The Atlantic detailing how Trump considers himself among history's greatest men, in the same ranks as figures like Alexander the Great or Julius Caesar. Hines noted that Trump has spoken highly of himself in the past, but the remarks captured in the report, which cites "a senior administration official and a longtime Trump confidant," show that his grandiose self-view has reached a new level.

“He’s been talking recently about how he is the most powerful person to ever live,” the confidant told The Atlantic. “He wants to be remembered as the one who did things that other people couldn’t do, because of his sheer power and force of will.”"

  

Interesting.  So Drumpf fancies himself a Julius Caesar or an Alexander the Great, huh?

Julius Caesar died at the age of 55 by tyrannicide.  Mercilessly stabbed to death by members of his own government.

Alexander the Great died at age 32, likely poisoned by people near him

I don't think DonOld truly wishes to depart this earthly existence in the manner of those two historical figures, do you?  But then again, he is a freak, so who knows.

And let's be honest here.  The only "things" getting done because of demising  DonOld's "sheer power and force of will" are the cover-up of his own involvement in a massive child sex ring, his dragging America into an illegal war in Iran, and selling America out to the highest and evilest of billionaire bidders as he sabotages our economy and attempts to transform the country into shithole autocratic state, the very same kind of autocratic state that the people of Hungary just banished to the political wilderness in their country.

Flatlining Poll Numbers Show Americans are Wising up to The GOP's Betrayal of the Country

Once again - it is not the media and the polling companies who are the reason for the Republican party's sinking popularity with voters right now:

 

 

Link:  GOP handed brutal '2%' polling figure as 'final nail in the coffin' delivered: expert - Raw Story

"The Republican Party is facing down a brutal polling figure which could mark the beginning of the end for their midterms cycle, an analyst has claimed.

Simulations of the midterm election had the Democrats coming out on top with a House majority, The Economist's Marie Segger wrote. A recent redistricting effort in Virginia has been noted by Segger as the tipping point for what could be a rough election cycle for the Republican Party.

Virginia Democrats achieved a major victory when voters approved an aggressive redistricting measure in April 2026. The ballot measure passed with approximately 51% support, or more than 1.5 million voters. The new map favors Democrats in 10 of 11 districts, potentially gaining four House seats."

 

I mean, c'mon ffs. 

While the Virginia redistricting decision APPROVED BY VIRGINIA VOTERS (unlike Texas and now Florida) may be a sign of waning GOP popular support, the real reason for the party of Lincoln's grim midterms outlook is because DonOld Drumpf has made himself a miserable part of our American lives going on 11 fucking years now, and has declared his wish to make himself a miserable part of our American lives for even more years than he is constitutionally allowed.

Americans are finally beginning to see the light, hopefully not too late, about who and what Drumpf and MAGA are and what their fascist, anti-America agenda is.  Even Hitler's fascist, dictatorial reign of power only lasted 11 years and most of the German people by the time it occurred were not sorrowful at news of his demise.

Hitler and the Nazi party never had more than 35% political support in Germany prior to his coming to power.  Drumpf's poll numbers right now are in 'Der Fรผhrer' range - low 30% range, and that number is trending downward ๐Ÿ‘‡.   If past history is an indicator . . .?

Republicans however, seem to think that a majority of Americans are eager to endure two or even more years of their MAGA circus congress coddling a tyrannical, whiny-ass titty baby, diaper shitting, dementia-addled criminal president while getting absolutely nothing accomplished on behalf of Americans who have been economically impacted by DonOld's massively failed MAGA governing policies, and the blow-back from his now clearly catastrophic decision to involve America in Bibi Netanyahu's Big Iran Armageddon Adventure.

There have been, at last count if I recall, around 30 special elections in the US over the past several months, in both blue states and blue areas of the country, as well as red states including some very deep red districts.  Democrats have won all but one I believe of those special elections.  Read the writing on the wall Republicans.

MAGA Mike Johnson and his do-nothing, pedophilia protecting MAGA Congress have shown Americans that they serve a constituency of one - a mobbed up, pussy-grabbing, adjudicated rapist, suspected child rapist, twice-impeached, multi-indicted convicted felon, and coup-plotting traitor who has sold this great nation down the river to some very sick and evil people.

That is the principal reason why their Trumpublican political party is sinking in the polls like a jettisoned boat anchor.

Drumpf's Mouth Endangers US Troops - Print That as a Headline, MSM

The most powerful leader of free and democratic nations around the world is tweeting out boorish smack talk like this on his own personal social media account at a time when American military personnel are directly in harm's way due to his own arrogant incompetence and demented hubris having illegally taken this country to war.

This is why I will never 'tone down' my views of this pile of putrid, orange trash and I wholeheartedly look forward to his third impeachment after the Republicans are dispatched with at the polls in this November's midterm elections.

 


 

And today he announced that they are going to plaster his stupid, scowling face on new US Passports and make it the 'default' passport choice for new applicants.
