QQ to any MAGA folks out there - why can’t you actually say the words of something you demonize. It’s DIVERSITY, EQUITY and INCLUSION. Exactly which of these do you think is evil? Just using unexplained initials doesn’t make your dismantling of these programs any less horrific.

And also want to make you understand these programs assist veterans, woman, children and minorities, right? Which of these groups doesn’t deserve your Christian compassion.

This is not just about gay, trans or any other group you fear is going to destroy our country. Which they aren’t by the way. I bet everyone alive knows someone who could benefit from a little empathy and assistance.

It’s about giving people a CHANCE, not an unfair advantage.

More signs of corruption from the Top Cop at DOJ:

- Pam Bondi is OK with Trump accepting a $400mil bribe from Qatar in the form of a plane for his personal use (now, and before he leaves office it transfers to his Presidential library). No one should be surprised that she previously lobbied Congress on behalf of Qatar, with her company billing $115,000 monthly.
- Bondi also represented a private prison firm who just got a $1billion contract including work with ICE
- She also got between $1mil and $5mil in stock from Trump Media Group when it went public, and sold about $1mil of it just a day before Trump announced tariffs that crashed the markets.
- Her brother is one of the lead lawyers on one of the groups trying to buy TikTok, even though Trump’s administration is heavily involved in the process.

WTF!?! The nominee for Surgeon General’s state medical license expired in Jan of 2024. Nominee for US Attorney in DC (arguably the most important District in the country) has been a TV personality for over 20 years with no practice of law. Not to mention dozens of other unqualified people already confirmed to top posts.

It’s going to take decades to recover.

So, should I be planning a tariff on the grocery store? According to Republican logic, they have been ripping me off for decades. I go there, give them money and all they do is give me goods. That’s a 100% trade imbalance. Shouldn’t they be forced to buy something from me? Not exactly sure what, but I don’t think I should allow this to continue.

So this isn’t suspicious at all - Trump’s kids are using the crypto con company they created during the campaign that got their father elected to start a new stable coin. So the President who is pushing to make crypto happen will financially benefit from his policies. And their partner is the son of the special envoy trying to resolve the wars in Gaza and Ukraine.

So, tariffs are paused for auto manufacturers. But not for other businesses, or consumers. How again is Trump helping every day Americans again? I need to go take out a payday loan (which is now unregulated since President Musk eliminated the CFPB) to pay for my breakfast.

President Donald Trump is granting a one-month exemption on his stiff new tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada for U.S. automakers.

I don’t think some people are totally clear - there’s a big difference between an Executive Order and a law. An EO is really just a memo, where the CEO of only 1 of the 3 branches of government makes his opinion known. It has no actual legal authority. It becomes the various agency’s job to develop actions to implement, and/or the Legislature to pass an actual law. No one can get arrested for violating an EO.

And while he’s doing this crap, the war in Ukraine is still going that he said he would stop “Day 1”, and in Gaza, and inflation is rising again, and eggs still cost $7, and lots of other things he should be dealing with. Instead, it’s just red meat for his most racist followers.

U.S. President Donald Trump is planning to sign an executive order that would for the first time make English the official language of the U.S., the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday citing White House officials.

So, how exactly has it come about that the US is deciding Ukraine’s future without Ukraine being involved? Just like Israel is going to give Gaza to the US, even though it doesn’t belong to them.

You know what? Trump needs to quit fu***ng around and lower the price of eggs. That is what he said he would do, so why isn’t he doing it? Enough about gender, DEI, plastic straws and crap that doesn’t matter.

I thought it was Make America Great Again. Just concentrate on that, maybe?

When you start a fight with the Pope on interpreting Christian doctrine, you might be on the wrong side of history

President Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan says Pope Francis should "stick to the Catholic Church," as the pontiff criticizes U.S. plans for mass deportations.

So it’s not ALL immigrants that are bad, it’s only non-white ones. Because an order is out to support the immigration of Afrikaaner South Africans (European colonialists who brutal enforced aparthied policies on natives and own 80% of the property in South Africa).

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section

Ok, hoped it was safe to stop. But I guess I have to start being an a$$hole again.

Co-President Trump ( not with his Co-President Musk this time) signed an Executive Ordee banning trans athletes from participating on teams of their chosen gender. For context, the NCAA estimates this affects 10 (yes TEN, as in 2 less than a dozen) athletes out of over 500,000 athletes. Great use of his time and attention eh, considering how short his attention span is.

UPDATE - eggs at my local Walmart and H.E.B are $4.50 to 4.75 a dozen for house brand large. What happened to making things better for the average citizen?

The order is titled "Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports."

This is why I really hate Donald Trump. He makes me do things I don't want to do. As a life-long Republican, he made me start agreeing with Democrats in 2015. And now he has turned me into a tin-foil hat wearing conspiracy theory person -

- Suspend belief that that someone with a rifle (AR no less) could get within 10 miles of a Presidential nominee. Secret Service patrols, local law enforcement, sniper teams doing overwatch, helicopters, drones - none of these things saw anything but a couple rednecks wearing MAGA hats saw him and pointed him out?

- For the 15-30 seconds prior to the "shooting", Trump is looking to his far right. Staring at something or someone, in an area where there probably are not a lot of people. Why wouldn't he have been looking at the much larger crowd directly in front of him, or at the teleprompters just to the side of directly forward? If his head is facing forward, we have either a miss or a dead nominee.

- We are supposed to believe a bullet whizzes by Trump's head, and he barely flinches. This is the guy who practically jumped out a window when a bald eagle near him flapped his wings.

- He reaches up to his ear, touches it, pulls his hand down and looks at it. No blood apparent. Trump himself said a bullet had "pierced" his ear. No sign of blood flying, no sign of blood on his hand after he touched it. Side note: I scratched my ear with my fingernail a couple weeks ago, and it took 20 minutes of direct pressure to stop the bleeding.

- He goes down behind podium with still no apparent blood. Secret Service agent pile on top of him.

- Moments later he stands back up, blood on his ear and face. But this is an active shooter situation, with no idea of whether there were 1 or 10 shooters. SS would have never let a protectee stand back up in such a scenario, exposing their head for a followup shot. They would have thrown their bodies over him, shielding him from harm and brought in a bullet proof blanket or shield before they tried to move him

- They move him to his SUV, still fully exposed and pumping his fist. He appears to be shouting "Fight" over and over again for some reason. Not what I would expect since there is still no possible way of knowing if it was a bullet, a bee sting, a firework that went off, or exactly what had happened. What are we supposed to be "fighting" against at this point, unless somehow he knew what actually happened in advance?

- But the blood on his ear and face are still the same. No more blood, nothing running on to his open shirt color. Almost as if what was there was placed there, rather than from an actual wound. Again, see idea above about how even small scratches to your head and face bleed profusely.

- Back to the shooter. First, he chose an AR rifle for a shot probably 200-300 yards long. As former military and Expert markmanship badge holder, I know an AR rifle is barely accurate on a full man sized target at that distance, certainly not my first choice to try to get a clean sniper-style shot on a difficult target at that distance. I'd leave my AR in the gun safe, and pull out one of the hunting rifles I have in there that are meant for that.

- Of course he's dead, so we can't ask him any questions.

Don't get me wrong - violence is wrong. The heated rhetoric of the political world has made it almost inevitable that something like this is going to happen. Some lone wolf nutbag is going to take matters into hi own hands.

I'm just suspicious at the convenience of such a dramatic event taking place just as the RNC convention is about to start, at a time when Trump is losing his ability to be the martyr and victim he always wants to play (he has pretty successfully quashed any hopes of the "with-hunt" trials impacting the election). My bet is we see him in pre-recorded videos with his head wrapped up like the mummy over the convention days, and then barely a bandaid after that because of his super-human strength and healing powers.

And it comes in the form of a magical bullet that barely grazes his ear (1 millimeter one direction and it misses him, 1 millimeter the other and we're picking up brain matter with a sponge).

Even Trump is not that lucky.
