Batten down the hatches, folks. The orange piece of shit is getting ready to unleash our military on any and all civilian protests, followed by the governments of the Blue states, wrapping up with Canada, Mexico, and Northern South America.

French Scientist Deported from the U.S. Over Trump Policy Criticism!

A French scientist was denied entry into the U.S. and deported after border officials searched his phone and found messages where he criticized Trump-era science policies.

This raises major concerns about academic freedom and whether political opinions should impact travel rights. 🚨

🔹 The scientist was traveling for a research conference in Houston.

🔹 U.S. officials stopped him, searched his phone, and found private messages.

🔹 Less than 0.01% of travelers have their devices searched, but this case has sparked outrage.

Should border officials be allowed to deny entry based on personal opinions? 🤔

Trump blames Volodymyr Zelensky for Ukrainian military conflict

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky should not have allowed the conflict in Ukraine to begin, American leader Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News.

The US President emphasised that the Ukrainian conflict should be finished immediately. According to him, Ukraine has been devastated as a result of this crisis. Trump said:

“First of all, he’s fighting a much bigger entity, okay, much bigger. When he was, you know, talking so brave… Zelensky was fighting a much bigger entity, much bigger, much more powerful. He shouldn’t have done that, because we could have made a deal, and it would have been a deal that would have been, it would have been a nothing deal.”

The US president noted that Russia had about 30,000 army tanks when the armed conflict started, while Zelensky had almost none.

“I could have made that deal so easily. And Zelensky decided: “I want to fight,” the US President claimed.

US President Donald Trump also said he wants to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin as soon as possible to seek an end to the war with Ukraine and expressed his desire to work on reducing nuclear weapons.

Trump called China a country that can play a constructive role in resolving the conflict in Ukraine. He noted:

“I look forward to productive co-operation. I hope China will help us stop the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. They have a great influence on this situation and we will work with them to resolve it.”

The US President again said that he would expand sanctions against Russia if Moscow does not conclude an agreement to end the conflict in Ukraine. He specified that in addition to Russia, sanctions could be imposed on other countries.

Trump also assured that he does not want to “hurt Russia,” and added:

“I love the Russian people and have always had very good relationship with President Putin – and this despite the hoaxes of the radical left about Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia.”

In the run-up to his election victory on November 5, Trump repeatedly said he would conclude an agreement between Ukraine and Russia on his first day in office, if not sooner. Now his advisers admit it will take months to resolve the war.

It's sick how obvious this is

[thoughtlessarse]

This has not been a good week. First, there was the utterly devastating spectacle of Vice President Kamala Harris presiding over the certification of President-elect Donald Trump’s Electoral College win. Four years since Trump triggered an insurrection in a desperate attempt to cling to power, Harris called Monday’s result a “good day” for democracy. Whatever else it was, it wasn’t a good day. Sure, Harris really had no choice but to certify her opponent’s win. But since she wasn’t wrong when she identified Trump as a fascist in the last weeks of the 2024 campaign, Monday was not a day for celebration. After all, if the result had been different, and if Harris had won, does anyone believe that Trump would have gracefully accepted his defeat? Does anyone believe his odious armed mob—some of whom have spent the past four years intimidating elections officials and threatening to rain death and destruction on his political opponents—wouldn’t have taken to the streets and attempted to storm the Capitol again? Does anyone really believe the GOP-led Congress wouldn’t have done everything in its power to disrupt proceedings? But for the Democrats, wedded to process in a system their opponents have spent years hollowing out and plotting end runs around, all that mattered was that they showed decorum. It conjured up images of the well-mannered upper-crust passengers on the Titanic listening to chamber music performed by on-board musicians desperate to keep the passengers calm as the ship began to flounder: honorable, decent, yet, ultimately, entirely futile. Then, wildfires fueled by 100 mph winds and worsened by a paucity of rainfall exploded in Los Angeles. As I write this column, on Thursday evening, at least 10 people are dead, thousands have been left homeless, tens of thousands have been evacuated, and many of the most beautiful coastal properties in LA have been reduced to piles of ash. Over the course of my lifetime, I must have driven around the Pacific Palisades area hundreds of times. The beauty of the landscape as Sunset Boulevard descends to the Pacific Ocean has been transmogrified, overnight, into a vista of apocalyptic devastation. It’s catastrophic. Again, this really hasn’t been a quality week. Add into that the growing drumbeat of threats against lawyers and judges and elected officials who attempted to hold Trump accountable for his misdeeds over the last four years. In the past week, Trump has called for the political figures involved in congressional hearings into the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol to be incarcerated. (He previously stated that special counsel Jack Smith should be exiled from the United States.) And he’s called for New York judge Juan Merchan, who presided over his hush-money trial, to be “disbarred.” Trump has, also this week, promised to fire the National Archives figures who reported his taking of classified documents to the Justice Department.

Please if you are a US American call your Reps and Senators and ask them to oppose this. If they are republican be sure to use the damage this would do economically as your talking point is that is often the talking point they run on. This is the government switchboard: (202) 224-3121. All you have to do is tell the, which state and county you are in and they will get you to the right office. You can find scripts online if you need them.

Reminder that Elon wants to make his meme coin the currency if the land and he wants to remove any and all barriers to that line of profit.

Corrupt soulless scumbags like Musk and Trump will sell out America in a heartbeat.

Musk and Trump need corruption for them to exist.

Here comes another Trump recession.

February 27, 2025

One of the many unpleasant side effects of electing a Republican president is that the nation invariably suffers an economic recession with all the trimmings — rising unemployment, reduced business activity and financial hardship for many Americans. It's as predictable as the sunrise.

We saw Republican-induced recessions happen with the savings & loan debacle under Ronnie Reagan and Poppy Bush (cleaned up by Bill Clinton), the financial crisis brought on by the policies of Bush Jr. (repaired by Barack Obama) and the COVID-assisted economic collapse during Donald Trump's first bungling attempt at being president (swiftly turned around by "too old" Joe Biden).

Yet, here we are again with the same pig-ignorant, hopelessly incompetent doofus as president. And again we're staring down the barrel of a recession, either this year or the next.

You may remember how President Biden got us out of the last one: mainly by pumping money into the economy with grants funding an array of projects under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law ($1.2 trillion), the CHIPS and Science Act ($280 billion), and the Inflation Reduction Act ($891 billion). Trump's ill-advised efforts to cancel these grants will be one important driver of the recession ahead.

But there are others. Like Trump's 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imported from our closest trading partners. As the Wall Street Journal notes, domestic manufacturers that use these metals in their products will pass on the higher input costs to their customers. Including car buyers, beer drinkers, homebuilders, oil drillers and other users of metal goods. And when inflation goes up, demand is stifled and the Fed habitually raises interest rates, reinforcing recessionary pressures.

Trump's promised mass deportations will also cripple vital sectors of the economy, such as agriculture, meatpacking, construction and hospitality, leading to further economic slowdown. While, co-President Elon Musk's chainsaw approach to shrinking the government — firing 240,000 federal workers, cancelling government contracts, demolishing whole agencies — will increase unemployment even more.

Finally, don't forget the gigantic tax cut for the ultra-wealthy planned by Republicans (reducing aggregate spending even further), the prospect of another pandemic (bird flu, this time) and the increasing economic uncertainty that's already paralyzing business leaders. Plus, for those wishing more bad news, here's Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman:

And let’s not ignore the fact that if a crisis comes any time in the next few years, the Musk/Trump Administration will be in charge of handling the response.

If that gives you confidence in the face of the oncoming recession, you've probably already invested your life savings in Trump digital trading cards.

Will Trump Save the World?

No, of course not. Seriously, you have got to stop watching only action adventure movies. Well, sure, they’re the best but Man does not live by shoot ’em ups alone. Need some more fiber in that diet. No, you’re not going on a documentary diet. What kind of a fiend do you take me for? But we do need to round out your media diet so that you stop expecting that one hero will save the world. At…
