I Didn't Say It ...

Hunter Biden, on his Nobel Peace Prize nominee:

“I am officially nominating Donald J. [Cankles] for the Nobel Peace Prize. No president in history has ended the same war so many times. Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count. No president has ever done this before. And he is nowhere near finished ending it. It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

And just yesterday the ceasefire was off, again, and the bombing was on, again, and gas price soared, again.

And he was profiting from the job.

Cory Booker, Democrat Senator from New Jersey, on the Presidential Grift™:

“If you put $100 dollars into [Cankles’] meme coin just before the inauguration, it’s be worth $2.34 today. But [Cankles]? We just learned he’s up $635 million. Then there’s that $526,810,321 he made in token sales from the family crypto company and the $196,875,000 he made from the family stable coins. And the $65,625,000 he made from an equity sale  in the family crypto company. Remember, this is all from last year. [He] has been running a full-on crypto scam out of the Oval Office. He’s a disgrace.”

Well, he’s actually a lying cheating racist rapist, sexual predator pedophile disgrace.

Michael Franken, US Navy Admiral Retired, disproving the GOP ongoing lie about voter fraud:

“In Utah, Republicans completed a comprehensive voter investigation looking for voter fraud. Of two million voters, [only] one non-citizen registered to vote and no non-citizen voted. Voter fraud is a Republican myth, and the Save Act is Republican nonsense.”

It’s no myth, it’s a lie and their only desperate attempt to keep their jobs. If Democrats get out and vote in record numbers—remember, we outnumber the GOP—this lie will die, just like the GOP.

photo

Raja Krishnamoorthi, Democrat Representative from Illinois, promising to take on the USPS over mail-in voting:

“If the postal service moves forward with [Cankles’] plan to restrict mail ballot delivery, I’ll pursue a Congressional subpoena of the Postmaster General and lead efforts to remove him from office. No administration should be able to use the Postal Service to make it harder for Americans to vote.”

Fight fire with fire; file suit against every single attempt the GOP puts forth to steal the election.

Oh, and remember that Cankles and his entire family vote by mail so if they trust the process shouldn’t you?

photo

David Frum, political commentator and former speechwriter for George W. Bush, on the disaster that is Cankles:

“Few of us have access to full information on how [Cankles] lost the Iran War. But we can all see the fiasco that [he] has made of the 250th anniversary [of American independence] celebrations. Watching [him] fail at something easy helps illustrate why he was doomed to mess up anything difficult.”

His birthday; the ballroom; the reflecting pool; the war; America’s birthday; the American State Fair; that Knicks game; the US game in the World Cup.

It all goes to shiz because he’s inept and demented.

James Talarico, Democrat candidate for Senator from Texas, demolishing Ted Cruz for smearing him as not "masculine" enough to win in Texas:

"Yeah, there's been a lot of talk in this race about what it means to be a real man and recently on the campaign trail, I told the story of my adoptive dad, the man who gave me his last name, the man who raised me as his own. Every Saturday morning, Mark Talarico would mow our lawn, whether it was rain or shine, whether he wanted to or not, he insisted on mowing our lawn himself. And then without anyone asking him to, he would go next door and mow our neighbor's lawn because our neighbor was elderly, she was a widow. And my dad never talked about it. He just did it. Because that's what a man does. A man takes responsibility. A man upholds his commitments to his family and his neighbors. A man does what's right even when no one is watching. And here's what real men don't do... They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. They don't steal from other people in order to enrich themselves. And so I've said before, and I will keep saying, that real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves and so I welcome this debate about what it means to be a man. And I don't think Ken Paxton or Ted Cruz are in a position to tell anybody what a real man is."

Someone should tell Ted Cruz that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. After Cankles called Rafael’s wife ugly during the 2016 Republican primary, Cruz went on to kiss the ring and the ass of Cankles; he sold his own family in pursuit of power; so manly.

I Didn't Say It ...

Alex Padilla, California Democrat Senator, speaking in the Senate about being taken out of that Border Barbie press conference:

"I was physically and aggressively forced out of the room, even as I repeatedly announced I was a United States senator and I had a question for the secretary. And even as the National Guardsman and the FBI agent who served as my escorts and brought me into that press briefing room stood by silently, knowing full well who I was. You've seen the video. I was pushed and pulled, struggled to maintain my balance. I was forced to the ground. First, on my knees. And then, flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down the hallway repeatedly asking, 'Why am I being detained?' Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this, but I will tell you in that moment a lot of questions came to my mind. First of all, where are they taking me? Because I know I'm not just being escorted out of the building. Am I being arrested here? And, ‘What will a city already on edge from being militarized think when they see their United States senator handcuffed just for trying to ask a question?’"

Padilla witnessed the people of California get brutalized by this regime, with families being torn apart, people being denied due process, and millions living in fear. And when he wants to question the DogKiller in charge he was physically assaulted and removed.

I can’t help but wonder how he would have been treated if he were a white man and then we learned, aft er the incident from journalist Michael Wolff, that The Felon smeared Padilla, saying that he "looks like an illegal."

These racists are destroying our country and it falls to all of us to make sure that the MAGA movement never wins another election as long as it exists.

Sara Jacobs, Democrat California Representative, calling out Pete Hegseth, DUI Hire, for implementing the ban on trans people serving in the US military:

“You are actually kicking out these three highly qualified [female] service members solely because of their identity. You are using the very same arguments that are desegregating the military or allowing women to serve or allowing gay people to serve. In all those cases, those arguments were wrong. I think it’s clear that this is not about standards, or, and I’m quoting you again, ‘an equal, unwavering, gender-neutral, merit-based system,’ because if it were, you would be keeping these women in. Instead, you are the one injecting culture wars into the military, and it’s at the detriment of our military readiness and national security.”

Pete is a scared little drunk boy, afraid to admit that women, especially trans women, can do the same job he’s done, and probably better.

Lay off the sauce, Petey.

Simone Biles, Olympic Gold medalist, taking on transphobic athlete Riley Gaines:

“Riley Gaines you’re truly sick because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser. You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive or creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports. Maybe a transgender category in all sports!! But instead … you bully them … one thing for sure, no one in sports is safe with you around.”

Fact: Riley Gaines didn’t lose First Place to a trans athlete; she came in fifth and if you remove the trans athlete she came in fourth.

She’s just an angry bigoted loser.

Barack Obama, former President, on The Felon’s fascist ICE crackdowns and racist rhetoric:

“Thirteen years ago, my administration acted to protect young people who were American in every single way but one: on paper. DACA [Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals] was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. And it’s an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies. We can fix our broken immigration system while still recognizing our common humanity and treating each other with dignity and respect. In fact, it’s the only way we ever will.”

Republicans have been foaming at the mouth for years to destroy DACA which allows individuals who arrived undocumented in the United Stated as children to receive a renewable window of deferred action from deportation.

And if it’s a smack down to President Obama, why they will love it all the more. There are roughly 530,000 active DACA recipients currently.

Tammy Duckworth, Democrat Illinois Senator, ripping Pete Hegseth a new one in a Congressional hearing:

“You are blowing through money like my fellow cadets and I did in our first liberty after basic camp. Luckily, I didn’t end up with a questionable tattoo. Your failures since taking office have been staggering. You sent classified operational information over Signal to chest thump to your wife, who has no security clearance, risking service member lives. You blew the $! Billion fight with the Houthis, who has no Navy and yet you lost all those aircraft. You have the unjustified and un-American use of the military in American cities, pulling resources and attention away from core missions to the detriment of warfighters and the warfighting you claim to love. You’re just an unquailed Yes man who can’t tell the President how to keep Americans safe.”

I mean, what should anyone have expected when the person put up for the job was a Fox News pundit, alcoholic sexual predator and liar??

photo

Eric Sorensen, gay Democrat Representative from Illinois, confronted Navy Secretary John Phelan last week on the military’s “everything old is new again” anti-LGBTQ+ stance:

 “I disagree with your leadership and [Hegseth’s] because I believe that every veteran deserves our thanks. We all walk in the footsteps of the leaders before us. And you may not find the value in the fact that many of those people are women, with different skin colors, different backgrounds, different talents, immigrants, gay, straight, transgender, disabled. You may want to change it, but you can’t. Because the America you and I both serve is a place where everyone has the ability or should have the ability to grow up and be the hero that your grandpa was. I wanted to do that when I was a kid. We’re going back to that time [of exclusion]. Gay kids like me, they don’t want to go into the Army, they don’t want to go into the Navy, because you don’t care for them. It’s happening all over our country. My grandpa taught me never to judge the value of a veteran’s service, and I hope that you can learn to do the same in your capacity, and you can find it in your heart to make that part of your process.”

Sadly, the GOP doesn’t do decent and honorable; they do fearmongering and divisiveness.

Cory Booker, Democrat Senator from New Jersey, slamming the Supreme Court for upholding a Tennessee state law banning gender-affirming care for trans youth:

“Today the Supreme Court chose to abandon trans children in America. Upholding the Tennessee ban on medical care for trans kids is heartless. This is a sad day but know I will never stop fighting to protect trans children everywhere. I know trans children. I hear the fear; I hear the worry that they’re not safe. The number one killer of children in America is gun violence. Do [Republicans] talk about that, the threat there? No. Singling out less than 1% of our population, which has the highest rates of bullying, threats of violence—heck, about 30% of LGBTQ kids, period, report missing school because of fear—and they made them the center of their political campaign. My faith teaches me to love everyone. What that means is you lead with courageous empathy for the struggles of trans children in America.”

The GOP wants you to fear 1% of the population.

Not the lunatics with guns; or the anti-Semites who set Jews on fire; or those Gestapo forces chasing immigrants through the streets of LA.

But fear the trans child.

I Didn't Say It ...

Mark Carney, newly elected Liberal Prime Minister of Canada:

“As I’ve been warned, America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country. But these are not idle threats. [The Felon] is trying to break us so that America can own us. That will never, that will never ever happen [but] we are once again at one of those hinge moments of history. Our old relationship with the United States, a relationship based on steadily increasing integration, is over. The system of open global trade anchored by the United States, a system that Canada has relied on since the Second World War, a system that, while not perfect, has helped deliver prosperity for a country for decades, is over. But it’s also our new reality. We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons. We have to look out for ourselves and above all we have to take care of each other … We will chart a new path forward because this is Canada and we decide what happens here … we can give ourselves far more than the Americans can ever take away. But even given that, I want to be clear, the coming days and months will be challenging, and they will call for some sacrifices. But we will share those sacrifices by supporting our workers and our businesses … We do things because they’re right, not because they’re easy and we see kindness as a virtue, not as a weakness. Most importantly, we know that our strength lies in our resolve to work together as a country … We are supporting our friends and neighbors in the crosshairs of [The Felon] through a crisis that we did not create … We will fight back with everything we have to get the best deal for Canada. We will protect our workers and businesses, and above all, we will build an independent future for our great country. A future that makes the greatest country on earth even better. Together, we will build a Canada worthy of our values. We will build Canada strong, Canada free, Canada forever. Vive la Canada.”

Nice to hear a leader talk of unity and kindness and progress.

We could have had that here, too …

Cory Booker, New Jersey Democrat Senator, :

“Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch on men on the House floor got together and said, ‘On the count of three, women get the right to vote.’ That’s not how it happened. Change doesn’t come from Washington; change comes to Washington.”

Change comes from the streets and the parks and the plazas where Americans gather to protest an unhinged president and his sycophants planting their lips to his ass.

Resist.

Andrew Napolitano, a former judge and judicial analyst for the far-right Newsmax network, condemns The Felon’s arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly impeding ICE's arrest of an undocumented migrant:

"An administrative warrant is not an arrest warrant. No judge would recognize an administrative warrant. So [Dugan]'s on the bench, there's a commotion in the hallway involving ... the defendant who's in front of her, for some sort of a low-level assault and battery. She goes out to see what the commotion is and they say, 'We're here to arrest this guy' and she basically says 'Well you're not going to interrupt with my proceeding. We don't permit arrests in the courtroom. You can wait in the hallway or you can wait for him outside. Let me see your arrest warrant.' 'We don't have one.' They have this administrative warrant, which is basically one ICE agent authorizing another ICE agent to detain someone. So I don't think there's a crime here. I think she has immunity. She can decide how a person leaves her courtroom. On the other hand, I can understand how the feds want to make a big deal out of this. They don't like anyone, least of all judges, interfering with the orderly process of arresting people. I just think this was the wrong one for them to do and then they showed pictures of her in handcuffs and all of that kind of stuff which is a violation of several regulations. I think they overreached by arresting her. If there's an issue in a white collar case with a public official like there was here in New York with Mayor Adams, you don't stop him on the street and put handcuffs on him, you say to his lawyer 'We need to talk to you about whether or not you will voluntarily surrender because we're about to charge you with a crime but because they're on a bit of a jihad against judges, they decided to make an example out of this. I think this is the wrong case out of which to make an example. I think she has immunity. She can decide where a person leaves her courtroom from and what she says to that person, and she can't be prosecuted for it."

Napolitano is right, by the rule of law; this arrest has nothing to do with upholding the law and everything to do with intimidating the judicial branch on behalf of [The Felon]'s fascist agenda.

Judge Dugan should be released immediately.

Rachel Maddow, out MSNBC correspondent, on The Felon’s first 100 days and his failures:

“There has never been a president who has botched the first 100 days of his presidency more than [The Felon] has. “You don’t have to take that as a subjective view. It’s the view shown in scientific polling of the American public. The public is deeply, deeply, deeply against what [The Felon]  is doing. He’s been very radical in his first hundred days and I think we knew that would be true, but I don’t think we knew he would turn the American public, including a large portion of his own base, against him so quickly, that the public would be willing again and again and again to go protest and say no and rise up against him, that he would fare so uniformly disastrously in court. He’s just been clobbered in the courts in dozens and dozens and dozens of cases already. He’s really flailed. All of this stuff that they have done and then undone, does reflect the radicalism and their ability and willingness to just destroy but they haven’t done a lot of it on purpose. They’ve done a lot of it despite themselves. They’re failure has created wreckage in the U.S. government … They’re [just] not that good at doing what they’re actually trying to do. That momentum is going to be the story of the second 100 days and beyond. Their incompetence, their inability to defend what they’re doing and the American people in a louder and louder and more intense way, just telling them, ‘Nope you’re not doing it.'”

Maddow does not believe The Felon has been any more efficient in his second term than he was in his first and pointed out the administration’s “litany of mistakes” it has had to walk back on, like accidentally firing and scrambling to rehire people in charge of crucial initiatives, like bird flu prevention and nuclear weapons management.

It’s like the insane are running the asylum.

JB Pritzker, Illinois Democrat governor,  telling Democrats in New Hampshire that the party needs to step up:

“Fellow Democrats, for far too long we’ve been guilty of listening to a bunch of do-nothing political types who would tell us that America’s house is not on fire, even as the flames are licking their faces. Today, as the blaze reaches the rafters, the pundits and politicians—whose simpering timidity served as kindle for the arsonists—urge us now not to reach for a hose. Meanwhile, if we took care to listen to the voices of real people, we would hear our neighbors and friends standing on the street outside screaming for a response, one big enough for a five-alarmer. Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption. But I am now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They must understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on the soap box … and then punish them at the ballot box. Today, it’s an immigrant with a tattoo. Tomorrow, it’s a citizen with a Facebook post that annoys [The Felon]. Time to stop apologizing when we were not wrong. Time to stop surrendering when we need to fight. You are standing up for all the people [The Felon] has attacked. We must abandon the culture of incrementalism that has led us to swallow their cruelty and their callousness with barely a cowardly croak.”

The cult is already claiming Pritzker is threatening violence against them which is funny coming from a group of Nazis who stormed the capitol.

Stand up, speak up, be heard, resist!

Ain't That America III

Well, what a week or so it's been in America; another shooting by another MAGAt; Karoline Leavitt proves she’s no Christian; RFK Jr shows us he still doesn’t have a clue; the new regime lies to fired employees and ends their healthcare; ICE arrested another citizen; Nancy Mace once again shows her true hate-filled, lying, victim colors; but the resistance shows up in Cory Booker, Massachusetts representatives, Harvard resists, the Wall Street Journal of all places stands against The Felon, a trio of Democrat governors, along with another protest against fascism.

In case you’re keeping score the Florida State University shooter has been identified and is …

—Not a Drag Queen

—Not Transgender

—Not an Immigrant

—Not Woke

—Not DEI

But just a white, homegrown MAGAt cult member and Felon supporter.

If you still need any proof that this White House is a viper’s nest of faux-christian hate and nastiness just read what Spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, AKA BullShit Barbie 2.0 said about Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

“Nothing will change the fact that Garcia will never be a Maryland father… The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the p[resident of the United States and secretary of state cannot be compelled to forcibly retrieve this citizen of El Salvador.” 

Here's a fact for this lying POS: The United States Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling ordering The Felon’s Regime to facilitate the return of Garci and they are refusing to comply.

As Felon’s and the Goose-steppers who support are apt to do.

Health Secretary and heroin addict Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s purge of tens of thousands of federal workers has halted efforts to collect data on everything from cancer rates in firefighters to mother-to-baby transmission of HIV and syphilis to outbreaks of drug-resistant gonorrhea to cases of carbon monoxide poisoning putting efforts to solve those problems in jeopardy.

But, hey, is it’s just poor people who can’t afford health care dying, then it’s okay with The Felon’s Regime.

Probationary workers who were re-fired this month from the Commerce Department say their health insurance is being terminated earlier than they expected.

The workers were told their health insurance would run into May but received notices this week that the department is backdating their termination to an earlier date, meaning the health insurance ran out last week.

At a time when The Felon is bragging about how investors have made millions, even billions, off recent swings in the stock market, this regime is showing its cruelty and inhumanity to fired NOAA employees.

And if it can happen to them …

In Arizona 19-year-old Jose Hermosillo, who was visiting Tucson from Albuquerque, says he was lost and walking near the Border Patrol headquarters on April 8 when an agent arrested him for illegally entering the country.

Hermosillo was not carrying identification and court documents say a Border Patrol agent arrested Hermosillo “at or near Nogales, Arizona, without proper immigration documents” and that Hermosillo admitted to illegally entering the U.S. Hermosillo says he has never been to Nogales.

Friends and family members made numerous calls looking for him before they found out he was being detained in the Florence Correctional Center, which ICE uses to detain people. Another family member drove to the detention center, about 70 miles northwest of Tucson, but said officials wouldn’t provide any information or release him.

A magistrate judge in Tucson dismissed Hermosillo’s case late last week.

If it can happen to him …

The GOP’s lying Representative from South Carolina, Nancy Mace posted a video on social media blasting the “evil” voters who call her office to complain; I believe these are actually called constituents, AKA the people who elected her to office and those she ALLEGEDLY represents. Hundreds of people have called Mace after she ditched a town hall meeting last month organized by the Lowcountry Accountability Alliance in South Carolina because she said it was unsafe for her to attend.

And then Nancy Mace, who lives for social media clicks, posted a video yesterday by Mace where she repeatedly tells a constituent whom she decides is gay to “fuck off” and “go fuck yourself” because he asked why she isn’t holding any town halls.

At one point she tells him, “by the way, I voted for gay marriage twice.” But you’ll note that in her post she also mocks him for wearing what she calls “daisy dukes.”

This is the GOP; if you ask them a question they tell you to fuck off.

Cory Booker, Democrat Senator from New Jersey, wants Congress to hold hearings and defended Democratic lawmakers’ calls for investigations into any possibility of insider trading after The Felon encouraged people to buy stocks before reversing his tariff policy last week.

Democrats began questioning whether anyone traded improperly after The Felon said on social media that “this is a great time to buy” when stocks were slumping after his idiotic tariff rollout and then, just hours later, announced that most of the steep tariffs would be temporarily reduced, sending the stock market shooting up.

His rich friends and his fellow GOP criminals are getting rich with the rest of the country suffers.

A new legislative push led by Elizabeth Warren and Melanie Stansbury, Massachusetts Democrat Senator and Representative, is seeking to bar Felon advisor Leon Skum from communicating with government agencies that interface with their companies and would require federal employees like Skum to meet new ethics requirements; hell, meet any ethics requirements.

The bill, titled the SGE Ethics Enforcement & Reform Act of 2025, would create what the lawmakers are calling a “bright-line rule” that makes new provisions explicitly applicable to owners of a “large company,” which the bill defines as any for-profit company making over $1 billion.

Harvard University has rejected policy changes requested by The Felon Regime that would have placed “unprecedented” demands on the institution.

The Felon had demanded that Harvard reduce the power of students and faculty members over the university’s affairs; report foreign students who commit conduct violations immediately to federal authorities; and bring in an outside party to ensure that each academic department is “viewpoint diverse,” among other steps. Alan Garber, Harvard’s president, responded:

“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.”

This is the Resistance.

The conservative Wall Street Journal stunned MAGAts with a scathing editorial of their Dear Leader in defense of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell—who The Felon wants to "terminate" for disobedience:

"The problem for [The Felon] is that Mr. Powell spoke the truth. The main lesson from [The Felon] vs. Powell is that the central bank can’t make up for the economic policy errors of politicians."

The Felon’s meltdown was prompted by Powell stating that the "level of the tariff increases announced so far is significantly larger than anticipated." The Fed is tasked with promoting full employment while managing inflation but these tariffs are raising inflation because the import duties are passed on to consumers and companies are laying off workers to make up for lost profits.

The Felon is inept and ill-equipped to run a business much less a country.

In Wisconsin, Democrat Governor Tony Evers has successfully increased school funding in the state for the next four hundred years by crossing out a few numbers on the bill to change it from “2024-2025” to “2425.”

And the state Supreme Court upheld his right to do so.

In Pennsylvania, Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro  is taking legal action against The Felon Regime which had revoked $185 million that was owed to PA schools.

In New Mexico, Democrat Governor Lujan Grisham signed into law new funding to help the state combat the climate crisis, something The Felon Regime and the GOP do not comprehend.

This past weekend, from Wyoming to Washington and Mississippi to Manhattan, protesters at hundreds of rallies in small towns and big cities gathered to The Felon’s sweeping policy moves, the second day of mass action this month as opposition to the administration continued to coalesce.

The more than 700 planned events were part of the “50501” movement, a decentralized campaign that got its name from a Feb. 5 push for “50 protests in 50 states on 1 day.”

That effort led to anti-Trump protests at state capitol buildings across the nation. Hunter Dunn, a spokesperson for 50501, described the group as a “pro-democracy, pro-Constitution, anti-executive-overreach, nonviolent grassroots movement.”

Saturday’s demonstrations — on the 250th anniversary of the start of the American Revolutionary War — came two weeks after the April 5 “Hands Off” rallies, which drew millions across the country in the largest single-day protest of Trump’s second term.

And for this 93-year-old woman it was her first protest …
