The Oval Office Godfather Gives North Carolinians an 'Offer' They Can't Refuse - or Can They?

He truly is a sick bastard.

The excuses being given by the people who continue to support him grow weaker, and more ludicrous with every bad deed he commits and every law he breaks: 

 

Link:  Trump Says 'No Money' Going to Camp Lejeune Toxic Water Victims' Claims if GOP Loses Midterm Elections 

 

"President Donald Trump said during a GOP rally Tuesday evening that the Justice Department will have "no money" for victims of contaminated water at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune if Republicans do not retain the House and Senate in the upcoming midterm elections.

Nefarious conditions at Camp Lejeune date back roughly 75 years. Approximately 1 million Marines, their families and civilian employees at the Jacksonville, N.C., base drank and bathed in water heavily contaminated with toxic chemicals between Aug. 1, 1953, and Dec. 31, 1987.

Trump's push to bring Republicans to the polls before and on Nov. 3 is seemingly being tied to the health and financial welfare of thousands of victims negatively affected by toxic water at Camp Lejeune who still await progress on their government claims. The DOJ oversees the claims' payout.

"If we don't win, there's no money," Trump told conservative supporters Tuesday in Greenville, N.C. "If we do win, you're getting it. It's gonna be finally over with that nightmare that's been going on for so many years."

"If we do win, you're getting it."

Technically, the DonOld is not wrong with that statement.

If American voters choose to keep MAGA Republicans in power, the vast majority of us are going to be "getting it" for certain.

If Republicans remain in control of Congress, the American people are truly going to get it.  They're going to get more of Drumpf's Iran war economy and his psychotic tariff and trade wars rammed good and hard up all our asses.

Just like it is with his $5000 'Trump Dividend' bribe offer, Drumpf, being the transactional mobster that he is and has always been, thinks he can buy his way into getting what he wants with these upcoming midterm elections.

As it is with all mobsters and their 'deals' and 'offers,' Drumpf's offer that he tossed out at this rally in North Carolina is simple - give him what he wants and maybe he will think about doing a nice favor for you in return.  If you don't give him what he wants, fuck you then.

In short - elect my thugs to Congress - OR ELSE - it's going to suck to be one of those soldiers or families of soldiers who were victims of poisoned, toxic drinking water caused by government negligence at that North Carolina military base, huh?

Translation:  "Nice little government settlement you might get there, folks.  Sure would be a shame if something bad were to happen to it..."

Typical mob pressure tactic.

The MAGA dolts, unfortunately, are too dumb or too raptured in dear leader's greatness to realize that he is shitting all over their lack of critical thinking skills with disgusting demands like these, but when you're in a cult, I guess it really doesn't matter, does it?  The cult leader is infallible and that's just how things are.

Anyhow, get out and vote.  Vote like your children's and grandchildren's futures are on the line - because they are.

Vote and take a friend or family member to vote.  Let's end this Drumpf/MAGA nightmare and get back to some semblance of sanity in our government.

Elon Musk's Criminal Arrogance Will Catch Up to Him Eventually, His Vast Wealth be Damned

I think someone should start up a betting pool on Kalshi or Polymarket, betting on how long it is before we see Elon Musk behind prison bars.

I say that because it is looking more and more like the treacherous little South African immigrant billionaire, in his lust for power, appears to have embroiled himself in the commission of war crimes, specifically providing aid and comfort to an enemy state (Russia) who are slaughtering Ukrainian civilians and committing war crimes on a daily basis in Putin's illegal war against democratic Ukraine:

 

Link:  ‘Die by the sword’: Musk unleashes ominous warning after journalist says he faces prison - Raw Story

  

"Elon Musk fired off an ominous warning Wednesday at veteran tech journalist Kara Swisher after she suggested the billionaire could face renewed federal investigations — and potentially prison time — if Democrats regain power.

“Live by the sword, die by the sword,” Musk wrote on his X platform. “Sounds like Swisher really wants to go to prison.”

The fiery response came two days after Swisher, a podcast host who has extensively covered Musk, discussed his potential legal troubles during an appearance on The Bulwark’s “Receipts with Catherine Rampell” podcast."

  

The arrogance of this prick believing that his billions in wealth afford him the liberty to thumb his nose at our American laws, at our American institutions, at our American constitution, and at our American values.

In addition to being a cowardly, egg-sucking Putin stooge, Elon Musk is quite simply put - a generally bad guy.  Period.  A very bad guy, actually.

That fact that Elmo is now openly threatening US journalists with reprisal should there be any post-election investigations into his skeevy dealings with his fellow 'Epstein Files' alumni Drumpf and his criminal regime, tells me he is fearful of what those investigations will turn up, and is lashing out, but still is of the belief that his vast wealth and his role as Drumpf's 'kingmaker' makes him untouchable by American laws or any other legal mechanism designed to hold bad, criminally-minded people in our society accountable.

Elon Musk and his wealth-hoarding empire will be taken down eventually, because all evil men have been vanquished at pivotal points in their evil lives throughout history.  Musk will not be an exception to that rule.  My only hope is that I am still around to be witness to his downfall when it finally and inevitably happens.

Alina Habba is one of The Griftiest of the Grifting MAGA Grifters in Trump's Orbit

The massive amount of self-dealing corruption among Drumpf's MAGA "friends" is jaw-dropping astonishing not only because of how pervasive their corruption is across multiple government agencies, but also because they have been so arrogantly careless at leaving paper trails of their fraudulent activities for criminal investigators to compile indictments against them at some future date:

 

Link:  MAGA lawyer's new 'corruption' scandal sends jaws to the floor: 'So rampant' - Raw Story

"A new bombshell corruption story published by The New York Times on Tuesday detailed how the family of a billionaire seeking a pardon from the Trump administration gave a $50 million deal to Alina Habba, a far-right lawyer involved in many of the president's personal dealings and who had briefly headed up the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey before being disqualified by federal courts.

The revelation, which came amid a broader power struggle within the Trump orbit between Habba and MAGA loyalist Ric Grenell over Kennedy Center funding, drew astonishment from legal and political observers — some of whom said it was orders of magnitude greater than the scandal that just brought down Trump's Ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle." 

So -- let's carefully rewind and analyze this for a moment, shall we?

Anyone who has followed Drumpf's re-infestation of the American people's White House knows who Alina Habba is.

Alina Habba was one of the multitude of grifter, ambulance chasing, strip-mall lawyers who Drumpf dragged into the US government when he wormed his way back into power in 2024 and installed in high level positions in his administration.

DonOld hired Habba as one of his scummy personal attorneys back in 2019 where she was promptly put to work pressuring one of the female employees at a Drumpf golf club to sign an illegal (in New Jersey) NDA in regards to a sexual misconduct complaint the employee had filed against DonOld's shitty New Jersey golf motel.  Habba and Drumpf were sued and ended up settling the case.

Drumpf then ILLEGALLY attempted to install Habba, whose most notable legal accomplishment up to that point was being the 'general counsel' attorney for her former husband's parking garage company, as the US Attorney in New Jersey until the federal courts got wind of it, put a stop to it, disqualifed Habba and ordered her to vacate the office.

And now, unsurprisingly, comes news that apparently, while she was in that illegally appointed position as US Attorney in New Jersey, dear Alina was simultaneously embroiled in $50 million worth of scandalous, Venezuelan billionaire pardon, quid pro quo shit that could result in her doing jail time alongside the corrupt benefactor who despoiled the American people's Department of Justice by hiring her crooked ass to begin with.

The prospect of Alina Habba doing jail time assumes of course that the law in this country still holds crooks and fraudsters, even the ones in the orbit of a corrupt, lawless POTUS, accountable for their crimes.

The MAGA Movement: Trashy People with Trashy Ideas Who Want to Trash America and Democracy

Vivek Ramaswamy is a disgusting piece of unworthy shit.

But then again, he is MAGA, so I guess we shouldn't be surprised by that.

Seriously though folks, go read about what this smarmy little Republican prick did in his desperate bid to win the US senate seat in Ohio:

 

Link:  Vivek Ramaswamy doubles down on 'disgusting' ad amid furious backlash: report - Raw Story

 

Vivek Ramaswamy is refusing to back away from a deeply personal attack on his gubernatorial rival, even as fellow Republicans sound the alarm.

The Ohio Republican's campaign is putting $4 million behind a statewide ad featuring Democrat Amy Acton's estranged mother, Donna Arthur, who accuses her daughter of lying about her upbringing, Axios reported Tuesday. Acton has said her mother took her stepfather's side after he sexually abused her when she was a child.

The ad first surfaced on social media late Monday with no disclaimer showing who paid for it. Ramaswamy's campaign later confirmed to Axios that it was behind the commercial, and sources close to the campaign said it performed well among "persuadable" voters in testing.

Acton, a physician, hit back in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

"Between the ages of 10 and 12, I was sexually abused by her husband, while my birth mother did nothing to protect me," she wrote. "I've always known that she was deeply sick and unwell, and it's sad to see Vivek Ramaswamy exploit her all for his own political gain."

 

Ramenswampy dredges up the mentally ill mother of his Democratic opponent Dr. Amy Acton, and puts the woman in a political ad to say shitty things about her daughter.

Ramenswampy put up this ad knowing full well that Acton had been removed from her mother's custody as a child because she was being sexually abused by her step-father.  Acton's mother defended the step-father at the time.

I don't know what kind of political strategy and marketing people Ramaswamy has on his team but whichever ones thought this was a good idea to exploit an elderly, mentally ill person like they've done in this ad should be publicly named, shamed and drummed out of politics permanently.

But this goes to show just how low, how scummy, how dirty, how hateful, how mean-spirited these fucking MAGA politicians are.  They are just bad people - period.  And it goes without saying that people who are this ruthlessly unethical sure as fuck do not deserve the privilege of governing over other Americans and making decisions that impact those American's lives.

MAGA politicians like this little walking, talking shit stain Vivek Ramaswamy want governing power not because they have some noble idea of using their elected position and power of their office to better the American people's lives.  No, these fuckers want governing power so they can use that power to hurt people they don't like.  They also want power, as we've seen with Drumpf and his boys, to enrich themselves off the backs of the American taxpayers.

That's what attracts vindictive, unethical little creeps like Ramaswamy to the Putin-fellating kiddie rapist in the White House and his MAGA movement. They love Drumpf for the simple reason that Drumpf hates the same people they do and wants to hurt the same people they want to hurt.

Anyway, it looks like the backlash to Ramenswampy and his scumbag tactics is growing in Ohio.  Let's hope that backlash blows a hole the size of the sun in the little cretin's plans to be the next US Senator from Ohio.

Republicans Fear the Act of More Americans Voting Than Anything. Their Reaction to That Fear Shows It.

Observing the Republican party doing everything in their power to try and keep as many Americans from being able to vote, while simultaneously running around waving their little Made-in-China American flags and bragging about the thin veneer of 'patriotism' they love to cloak themselves in will never cease to be both laughable and nauseating:

  

Link:  GOP states have made it harder to vote, a change that could swing midterms | CNN Politics

 "Voters in at least 22 states face new hurdles in casting their ballots compared with the 2024 election, according to a recent Brennan Center report. These new restrictions come on top of at least 78 restrictive laws passed by 30 states between 2020 and 2024.

Many GOP state and local officials have argued that the changes are needed to help make elections more secure, often echoing Trump’s repeatedly debunked claims that voting fraud runs rampant.

Speaking in August at the Republican midterm convention, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said his state had adopted “the toughest voter ID law in the United States of America,” and that “we made clear that in elections in Texas, you have to be a United States citizen to vote.”

However, there’s no evidence non-citizens have voted in Texas or any other states in significant numbers. Election experts say the new restrictions could depress turnout by making it harder for first-time voters to register and for those without driver’s licenses – such as some seniors and disabled voters – to cast ballots."

 

Republicans have been claiming for years without producing one shred of credible evidence that there is massive voter fraud taking place across the country, fraud which curiously appears to ONLY occur when one of their high profile candidates loses (Drumpf).

Let's just stop with the bullshit, okay?  

The ONLY reason that the Republican party wants to make it much more difficult for a US citizen to cast a vote than it is for them to purchase an AR-15 assault rifle, is because the Republican party's moral values are as fucking dead as the proverbial door nail.

That's right.  The GOP is a party of dead moral values (aka 'family values').  And it stands to reason that a party of dead moral values would have no qualms whatsoever for supporting and promoting an individual as their party leader who has a history of criminal fraud, a history of tax fraud, a history of business fraud, a history of adultery, a history of sexual assault, a history of rape, and a growing, still yet to be completely revealed history of likely pedophilia.

So yeah - It's become clear that the party that protects fraudsters, rapists, and pedophiles would very much like to keep the status quo of their criminal protection racket intact in order to continue enabling Drumpf's corrupt regime, and if they have to do it by canceling the right of certain Americans to vote, then that is what they will do.

The Sympathy Well is Running Dry for Those Who Keep Voting to Hurt Themselves

75% of voters who self-identified as 'truck driver' for their occupation voted for Donald Trump in 2024.

75% of voters who self-identified as 'farmer' for their occupation voted for Donald Trump in 2024.

Keep that in mind as we continue to see stories like this play out across the country for the foreseeable future: 

 

Link:  'Worst I've seen': Texas Farm Bureau chief sounds alarm on Trump economy as farmers revolt - Raw Story

  

"Texas farmers have long been a sure thing for Republicans. With the midterms just over two weeks away, some of them say that loyalty is being tested.

High fuel and fertilizer prices driven by President Donald Trump’s war with Iran are hitting farmers hard across the state, the Houston Chronicle reported on Saturday.

“We’ve had our ups and downs, but this (economy) ranks with the worst ones I’ve seen,” said Russell Boening, president of the Texas Farm Bureau. “I know that people aren’t happy with everything but, maybe looking at the big picture, they’ll stay true to how they normally vote. Or maybe they stay home.”"

  

It's not just Texas farmers who are being dragged across the 'affordability' coals by Drumpf/MAGA governing decisions.

This is occurring in farming communities across the country, and unless DonOld has some magical trick up his dirty sleeve to end the very stupid war that he and Bibi Netanyahu started against Iran, it will get worse.

Once again though, I hearken back to the fact that 75% of these farmers voted in 2024 for the guy that nearly destroyed their livelihoods in his first term in office with his ill-advised, merry-go-round tariff wars.

What did they seriously believe Drumpf was going to do if he was given a second four year term in office?  

I mean, he literally told these farmers that he was going to go right back to starting more trade and tariff wars, and surprise of all surprises, here we are once more with American farmers getting shit upon yet again by a Donald Trump government and having to be bailed out yet again with other people's (taxpayer) money.

The supreme irony in all of this is watching these 'socialism' hating Republican farmers voting over and over again for Republican candidates for higher office who don't give a shit about these farmer's interests, and then watching 'socialism' have to financially bail these dipshits out over and over again when those Republican governing policies fail.

I think what I am trying to convey here is that I have pretty much lost the ability to feel sympathy for these farmers and truckers who voted for Drumpf in 2016 and 2024, and are now being squeezed into financial extinction by the same policies that victimized them previously.

When the majority of American farmers sided with the convicted felon, coup instigator, adjudicated rapist, and suspected child rapist at the ballot box in 2016 and 2024, they essentially chose to side against their own county and against themselves and their own interests.

Therefore, I say if if stupidity is going to rule the day in deciding who should lead the US, then let these fucking Trump-voting farmers and truckers swim in their own sea of this stupidity, and let's stop tossing them taxpayer-funded lifelines (bailouts) that rewards that stupidity.  Let them sink or swim of their own chosen volition.

The American White House Needs Chemotherapy to Treat the Growing Cancer Within

He is such an insufferably stupid and ignorant buffoon.  He embarrasses this nation and people every damn day:

 

  

Link:  Trump smears 'crooked' New Mexico’s elections in bizarre demand to rename state - Raw Story 

 

"President Donald Trump called for New Mexico to change its name Monday, arguing that the state would become more prosperous if it adopted a new, more patriotic name.

"New Mexico should immediately change its name to New America," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. "We are not Mexico, we are the United States of America!"

 

Trump continued to make his case for the change in the unprompted social media rant, claiming it would bring economic benefits to the state.

 

"The name would add great value and prestige to the State! Home Values and Incomes would rise, and you would be even prouder while saluting our beautiful American Flag!""

  

Uh-huh.  Sure Jan.

I am certain that this is just another one of his multitude of shit-stirring tweets trying to distract Americans from his Iran war assholery failure that is killing our economy and hurting Americans, as well as his still festering Epstein Files child sex trafficking and child rape problems.

The guy who just stabbed democracy-seeking Ukraine in the back and gave his Russian blackmailer Vladimir Putin a big, fat, wet money kiss by announcing the lifting of sanctions on Russian oil and diesel and the US purchase of same a week after Congress passed a law to strengthen those sanctions against Russia, is suddenly concerned about the names of our US states not being "patriotic" enough?  Can you believe that shit?  Ffs. 

I can't wait for this demented piece of orange spray-painted pile of human waste to be out of our American lives forever.

It's been more than a decade of his fucking corruption and thievery, his insanity and mind-numbing stupidity, and his never-ending verbal diarrhea.  It's more than the sane people of this country should have been forced to endure.

And so it's time to put an end to this fucking Drumpfian shit-show.

That happens when everyone who possibly can registers to vote and exercises that right in this upcoming election and votes these dictator-wannabe coddling MAGA Republicans out of office and out of power.

Then waste not one minute to impeach, convict, and remove the big, orange cancerous lesion that is metastasizing in the oval office of the American people's White House. 

Just think...

No more of his stupid tweets about renaming Lakes, Oceans and US states. 

No more of his bloviating bullshit about all the money the US is raking in for the country from his tariffs that are killing American farms and the American trucking industry.

No more lies about how he and that inebriated Fox "news" castoff Pete Kegseth are losing the Iran war and degrading our military.

No more appointing totally unqualified, ethically compromised quislings and appratchiks to government positions who only last five days (Katie Zacharia) before being forced to resign in disgrace.

Enough of this fucking clown and his three-ring MAGA circus.

Run them all out of town on the electoral rails come November 3.

Mark Zuckerberg is Revealing His True, Inner Democray-Hating, America-Hating Self

The owner of the world's largest online social media platform is an enemy of democracy.

Mark Zuckerberg and his Russian bot infested, online scammer infested social media site Facebook, or Meta, or whatever dumbass name it goes by these days, apparently has a problem with Americans taking to the streets to openly express support for their democracy and country at a time when an individual who has openly stated his desire to be America's first dictator is attempting to forcefully take the US down the doomed path of fascism:

 

Link:  Fury as Meta accused of kneecapping nationwide No Kings rallies: 'We demand answers' - Raw Story

 

If Zuckerturd is considering going the route of MuskRat in using his vast wealth and his global media platform to undermine American elections to favor Drumpf and Republicans, then we need to add Zuckerturd's name to the list of techbro shitstains who need to have their tech toys confiscated and their industry heavily regulated until the poisonous lifeblood is squeezed out of it once the Republicans and MAGA are out of power.

I consciously chose to leave Facebook a few years ago after it became clear the site was run by a right-wing sympathizer and also because the platform had become an unsafe (scammer bots everywhere), unusable product that brought absolutely zero value to my life.  I have not regretted that decision one bit and as far as I am concerned, Facebook has been dead to me personally for some time and I am okay with that.  I would strongly urge others to reconsider their use of that skeevy platform and how it enables guys like Zuckerturd and MuskRat to thrive and extend the toxic reach of their fascist ideology to the masses.

Just remember this photo from Drumpf's 'pay-to-play' inauguration:

 

 

These 'tech bro' shitstains were all in with their support of the corrupt old kiddie rapist from day one.  Fuck them all, every last one of them.

Here's a novel concept.

No more Facebook.

No more Instagram. 

No more Amazon.

No more Twitter/X.

No more TikTok.

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.
