What would you call it? Michael Cohen had an embarrasing, kissy-faced, pathetic reunion with Donald Trump. Cohen calls his show…

“WHEN YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW“ but I think of two weasels in the studio and I prefer…

THE FAT AND THE FAILURE

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT - the timeline goes something like this:

• Cohen spends years as Trump’s “pit bull”. Always ready to lie, cheat, and threaten on behalf of his big orange blowhard boss

• In 2016 Cohen facilitates 130K in hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels to cover up the fling she had with the future President. She talked about sex with Trump by describing the real Don Jr. this way, “a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart”

• By 2018 the FBI had enough on Cohen. The PIT BULL plead guilty to tax evasion, bank fraud and more. He did a year+ in jail and was the key witness that lead to Trump becoming the first President convicted of a felony - 34 felony counts in all

• Cohen called Trump a con man, racist, and a bully. Trump took the high road…no, of course he didn’t. Trump called Cohen a liar, rat, and a sleazebag

SO HOW DID THESE TWO FALL BACK IN LOVE AGAIN?

The fixer said it was simply all about forgiveness. Trump said Cohen was forced to go against Trump because the feds wanted to get him as usual.

NOTHING THESE TWO FOOLS SAY CAN EXPLAIN THIS

As human beings go (I know, thats a stretch) this doesn’t add up in any way. Cohen threw away his life for Trump and he watched his right hand man twist in the wind.

And Donald Trump has shown loyalty to no one but himself. He doesn’t forgive or apologize - ever.

SO WHAT’S IN IT FOR COHEN? A possible pardon and a twisted return to relevance in his view?

WHAT’S IN IT FOR TRUMP? Hard to fathom but it could be as simple as he just can’t resist a good ass kissing.

SO WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED?

When you know, you know. Trump will throw Cohen under the bus AGAIN and at any time. Michael Cohen picked the wrong team AGAIN and its hard to imagine what he’ll do next.

Cohen had crafted a new image of being a bad guy who paid the price of flying too close to Trump, found redemption, and finally did the right thing. Now he is just another pathetic footnote.

HERE WE GO…

Its been awhile, and the pile of Trump is immense, but we’re back to recount what the Big Orange Idiot has done and is still doing now.

The common perception is 1/2 the country is crazy but that half appears to be sobering up. Multiple polls say Trump is down to a 30-35% approval rate…30-35% higher than he deserves.

Trump’s hand-picked DOJ-bitch is all but out. A couple of GOP Senators grew a spine before leaving D.C. for good to shut down the Todd Blanche AG confirmation.

Donnie says he’ll just wait until Sens. Cornyn and Tillis are gone in January and shove Blanche through then. Hmmmm, but what if the Dems win Congress back in November?

Could you mourn a little more quietly? In the least shocking development in recent memory the current occupant of the White House put on quite a show at the funeral of Lindsey Graham.

First he insulted the deceased and then he fell asleep. Somewhere President Biden is laughing.

And then there’s that little war Trump started in Iran. You could make a serious argument that we are losing that war but why toss facts and evidence in where that kind of thing is just not welcome.

The Middle East standoff has cost so much more than money. We are almost out of AMMO and therefore not ready if another conflict were to happen now.

The Governor of Kentucky, Andy Beshear, can’t get answears on whether or not Mitch McConnell is dead. Trump says he doesn’t know and doesn’t seem to care.

Now in his second month in hospital care he has not spoken publicly about his health. His office has released 2 photos that supossedly show morgue-ready Mitch doing just fine. Sure he is.

Greenland, Cuba, and even Djibouti have avoided the Trump takeover threats but give him credit for damaging our worldwide reputation and standing anyway.

King Charles and Queen Camilla left Washington under a grave threat. They politely invited Trump to visit again and he said he would. Thats why they’re pretending they’re not home.

Its hard to pick the most stupid thing Trump does in any given week but the 2026 leader may well be his fight with the Pope.

The Vatican doesn’t seem worried but I’m guessing you could get some action on the prediction markets.

Throwing extra tariffs at Canada for the wildfire smoke that choked up the northern 1/3 of America is so off-the-charts dumb it just cannot be true. It is.

And you don’t want to piss off Bullwinkle. Yes he’s from Frostbite Falls, MN but he can see Canada from there.

The Maggie Haberman/Jonathan Swan book, REGIME CHANGE, has many, many scary moments but this one story sticks with you like food poisoning.

Trump told the authors he was history’s most powerful leader. He seemed pleased to tell them he was stronger than Hitler, Stalin, and Genghis Khan.

The kicker is Trump cited the historian who said he was a world superpower. That historian was actually a former caddy for the legendary Gary Player.

No…I didn’t make that up.

THE FAT AND THE FURIOUS is the story of the latest physical for Orange Julius Caesar. According to the released results he is 6’3” and 238 pounds. I’ll give you a minute to stop laughing.

For comparative purposes, President Taft was 6’3” and 330 lbs. Take a good luck at the photo above. You tell me.

YOU SUCK - HERE’S MORE MONEY

In conclusion…in the upside down universe we now live in…the reward for being the worst President in American history is apparently 2 billion dollars.

Trump made something over that 2B mark in 2025 mostly on very shady crypto deals.

And the Republicans in Congress just looked the other way. Pathetic.

Now go share this and spread the TWIT word!

DE MORTUIS NIL NISI BONUM?

Literal translation is "of the dead, say nothing unless good".

Should that apply to Lindsey Graham?

You would think that might be a tough question but it's not.

THE POSITIVES - its a short list

To be fair, the senior Senator from South Carolina did many good things for his State. 

He fought hard for Ukraine and for the U.S. to continue to contribute to their fight against Putin and Russia.

He was a veteran and a strong supporter of proper pay and healthcare for active duty and retired members.

But his hypocrisy on Donald Trump became his legacy.

He ripped him during the 2016 campaign and said he wasn't fit to be the President.

And on January 6th the Trump riots seemed to be the end of his love fest with the Commander-in-Orange.

On the Senate floor that night Graham said, “today all I can say is count me out,” he continued. “Enough is enough.”

Trump called FOX NEWS shortly after the sudden death was announced and made it about him …of course he did.

The most dishonest man in history said that Lindsey flipped on that big-boy statement and I actually believe Trump. That’s a first.

“Now, you know he had one bad moment, that was the Jan. 6 thing when he stood up, ‘All right, now I’ve had it, that’s it, I can’t do it anymore,'” Trump said. “And then he called me about 40 minutes later, and he said, ‘Did I really say that? I can’t believe it.’ And he took it back.”

At another time, Graham called Trump a jackass and said, 

“Donald Trump gets his foreign policy from watching television – the Cartoon Network.” 

None of his standing up to do the right thing lasted.

His ultimate siding with Trump over all else revealed who he truly was in life.

Lindsey was a fraud and a coward like the majority of his party in the House and Senate.

He knew who Trump was and still is to this day. Yet somehow siding with him served his purposes in the moment regardless of him not having a shred of dignity left to his name.

He chose pleasing Trump over serving America.

He was transactional and willing to sell out again and again. He was vicious to critics and media members asking simple questions.

He was even mean to grieving mothers as reported by Politico.

• Sen. Lindsey Graham reportedly told the mother of Brian Sicknick, a Capitol Police officer who died following the January 6, 2021, riot, that he would END a meeting with her if she kept talking negatively about the then former President, Donald Trump.

  [ from Michael Fanone, a former officer of the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia, in his book, "Hold the Line: The Insurrection and One Cop's Battle for America's Soul," as reported by Politico ]

As to his sexual preference and proclivities he should be afforded privacy if not for the fact that he lobbied loud and long against LGBTQ+ rights and issues.

So…should we not speak ill of the dead?

In principal, of course not.  Unfortunately the full truth of Lindsey's life needs to be told.

Sen. Graham chose a public life.  The benefits from that choice come at a cost. 

Yes, Graham did good things in his life. He also did terrible things and showed little or no remorse.

There are 100 U.S. Senators playing a huge role in the lives of 342 million Americans. When you blow off that immense responsibility and use your power in the Senate the way Lindsey Graham did, you get what you deserve.

To be assured that most won't speak ill of you when you die, you must know this fact.

If you want people to not speak ill of the dead you should not spend so much time speaking Ill of the living.

Lindsey Graham chose Donald Trump over Democracy. He chose his own pathetic need for relevance over decency and doing the right thing.

There's a price to pay.

REST IN THAT.

WE’VE ONLY JUST BEGUN

250 years is a historical “drop in the bucket” compared to the empires of the past.

The ROMAN EMPIRE lasted over 1000 years. The OTTOMAN EMPIRE ruled for 623 years. The BRITISH EMPIRE for 414.

There is a lot of talk about the end of the AMERICAN EMPIRE happening now but those arguments and opinions do not change what we know.

America is 250 years old and it has been an amazing run so far.

(a beautiful view of Chicago from Barry Butler photography)

DO YOU FLY THE FLAG?

I’m old enough to remember the days after 9/11 when our flag was flown everywhere.

To be fair it was only a few weeks before partisan politics came back and poisoned the patriotic well.

But those days of unity were a beautiful thing, in a horrible time, and being able to see the American flag flying was inspiring and even comforting.

GRIEF FADES BUT GRATITUDE LIVES ON

The days after 9/11 were terribly sad. It felt like the other shoe could drop on us at any time. But there were moments of hope that sustained us and seeing the flag flying at Ground Zero was incredibly important.

The flag still matters because we are still here.

We survived a Revolution and a Civil War. The flag still flew.

We survived World Wars and the Great Depression. The flag still flew.

We survived 9/11. The flag still flew.

I GET IT

It doesn’t feel good to be an American right now.

The politics of today are an embarrassment. The daily barrage of Trump news is exhausting. The Republican cowards in Congress who hide from doing their duty and the inability of Democrats to instill any confidence in them makes it hard to believe in our future.

The flag won’t fix all that but it should remind all of us that we cannot surrender. We need to find the American spirit that our ancestors had for the last 250 years.

They certainly must have looked at the flag and had the same or even greater doubts than we do today.

But if you quit on America how do you think that will end?

The American Flag doesn’t represent terrible leaders. Its a symbol of the collective good of the greatest country in the world.

I hope you will fly your flag. I am flying mine.

If you agree share this with someone who may need it.

Happy Birthday and God Bless America.

ARE WE DOOMED?

This isn't about politics or party. NO PRESIDENT SHOULD EVER ACT THIS WAY!

It's a tough talk to have.  Grandpa just can't be trusted to take care of things anymore. 

First you take the car keys. Then you move him out of the house to somewhere where he can't hurt himself or anyone else.

It's past time to have that talk.

Grandpa here is Donald Trump. The car is America and we take the keys because he can't drive U.S. anymore.

Trump has never been more unstable and more destructive.

*When Trump made the threat that he would wipe out the entire civilization of Iran, in the war he started, he crossed a line no President had approached before.

*When he reposted an image of himself as Jesus and also insulted the Pope, he crossed as many as 200m Americans and 1.5b Catholics around the world.

*When HE STARTED that war with Iran, without permission or a plan, he crossed the most dangerous line.

Then there is:

- Melania’s Epstein moment

-Trump saying gas might cost even more by November and prices are not that high

-RFK JR. cutting off a dead racoon's penis to study it later (from the new book RFK Jr., The Fall and Rise)

-Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible passage at a prayer breakfast - that was from the movie, Pulp Fiction

And that's all in the past week.

This isn't about politics or party. 

NO PRESIDENT SHOULD EVER ACT THIS WAY!

You say we have faced worse circumstances. You think we'll be fine? You say it can't get worse.

How many 80-year-old men do you know who are willing to change?

And know this. What happens here doesn't happen in a vacuum. The rest of the world is watching. 

In Bejing, Moscow, Berlin, London, Tokyo. Rome, and Cairo the insanity of Donald Trump is a daily topic.

The governments of our enemies and allies are figuring out how to maximize their function through our dysfunction.

There's easy evidence on how clueless the big orange blowhard is about the world. He is still seemingly serious about ending NATO.

He doesn't know why we need NATO and he probably can't spell it.

So how do you fix this? 

Is it fixable? 

The good people of Hungary just dumped dictator Viktor Orban in a landslide election.

We don't have the luxury of an election to do the right thing.

TRUMP has to go. He must be removed from office.

It comes down to two avenues.

IMPEACHMENT:

If it were to happen it would be the 3rd time Trump has been impeached, breaking his own record of 2 previous impeachments.

You know he loves breaking records.

Impeachment goes like this. The House files charges and the Senate holds a trial.

In his first 2 impeachments the Senate voted to convict and remove him from office both times.

However both vote totals fell short of the 67 (⅔ of the Senate) needed to dump Trump.

This time it could happen but will they have the will?

THE 25th AMENDMENT

Removal by the 25th amendment is even more difficult though it seems more directly relevant here.

When the President is deemed too incapacitated to perform his duties he can be involuntarily removed.

Here's the hard part.

The V.P. must trigger the effort and a majority of the “Cabinet” must vote for removal. Trump can challenge and return to power until Vance stands against him a second time.

Congress would then decide if he goes or stays.

Involuntary removal has never been done for mental incapacitation but we also have never had a President so dangerous to the country as Donald Trump.

Its possible.

Aside from the difficulty of these efforts there's the Democrats question.

Many of them believe the farther Trump travels to crazy-town, the better their chances in the midterm elections.

That's playing with matches and its completely unacceptable.

If Republicans don't act, and Democrats don't get their act together, all bets are off.

Trump will do anything to protect himself and throw anyone under the bus to help himself.

He does not think about his responsibility as President. He only thinks about Trump. I believe he only dreams about Trump.

…especially during important meetings.

Democrats are not off the hook and could do so much more, so much better. But the ability to end the Trump nightmare is with Republicans.

And the truth is Republicans only hope in the midterms is to rid themselves of Donald Trump and ride out the rest of Trump's time with Vice President, JD Vance.

Vance will do whatever he's told to do.

Republicans can then claim they want to be real conservatives again and help people - without the daily drama of Donald Trump.

The tradeoff would be Trump goes and the Cowards in Congress skate free.

The Senate would be silent no more.

So with respect and deference to the legacy of German Pastor, Martin Niemoller. His famous piece “First They Came” was about the danger of silence during the rise of Nazis. I'm borrowing it because it's the proper format here.

Republicans in Congress..this one is for you.

First came Trump

“First Trump lied about everything and said horrible things about everyone.  You said nothing because it was just “Trump being Trump”.

*Then he lied about Covid-19 and again, you said nothing, even though his stunning mismanagement directly contributed to 7 million deaths worldwide and more than 1.2 million American deaths as well.

*He lied that the election of Joe Biden was rigged and you said nothing. You knew it wasn't true. You knew the damage it would cause.  But you didn't say anything because that might hurt you.

*Then you watched while he started the fire that led to the January 6th riots at the Capitol.

The riots that could have killed you.

You lied about the rioters or said nothing at all because you just wanted to keep your job.

*Then he lied and hid the truth about the Epstein Pedo-Files. The rape and abuse of young girls happened. Even that wasn't enough to get you to do your jobs. You said nothing.

*And when he started a war with Iran without explanation and threatened to wipe out the entire Iranian civilization - you still said nothing - because the Midterms were coming up and you were afraid to stand up to him.

*Finally you have to face the truth of your silence.

You should lose your job in Congress and live with the fact that your cowardice made America worse in ways never seen before.

How do they live with themselves when they have to live with that?

This isn't about politics or party. 

NO PRESIDENT SHOULD EVER ACT THIS WAY!

Trump must GO!

Don't say it can't happen. We’ve seen things we thought were impossible.

Donald Trump got elected and reelected.

…and This Week in Trump…even after getting crushed by everyone for his last blasphemous picture…Trump posted another…

What will he do next?

What will you do?

Vote, badger your Reps, apply public pressure, make noise, get involved and stay involved.

HAPPY EASTER?

Trump is unlike any other President. By that I mean there's never been another one so embarrassingly unqualified for the job.

These are Trump's own words posted early on Easter Sunday…

“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH!”

and his BIG finish… “Praise be to Allah.”

As a good Christian he certainly captured the spirit and meaning of the day.

BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE

Most missed the story from a private White House meeting with Trump hosting Pastors and religious supporters…you know…hypocrites.

He revealed himself in two ways that should scare Congress to death but they must not have good WIFI where they are hiding while Donny destroys the country.

Trump on Trump said…

“I can’t get a ballroom approved. It’s pretty amazing, right? If I was a king, we’d be doing a lot more. I’m doing a lot, but I could be doing a lot more if I was a king”.

IT GETS WORSE

Trump ripped the Supreme Court and called the Justices STUPID because he appointed them but they want to show their independence.

Yes Me. President, THATS THEIR JOB!

Finally, nothing explains Orange Julius Caesar better than his own words in supporting terrible people - as long as they like him.

He said…

“You know, we’re not supposed to be seduced that way, right? But I am. When someone’s nice to me, I love that person. Even if they’re bad people, I couldn’t care less. I’ll fight to the end for them.”

He's sad, lonely, and unlovable. He's the POTUS.

Credit to Bryan Metzger of Business Insider who saved the Big Orange Rant before the White House deleted it.

That's right. Some genius in White House communications actually posted this insanity.

DEAR VP, GOD KNOWS YOU'RE A FRAUD

JD Vance’s new book cover shows a beautiful country church. One problem. He's never been there and the parishoners don’t know him.

The book is all about his spiritual journey but apparently he missed the exit for Elk Creek, VA where the book’s cover church (the one he's never attended) is located.

BTW, the church pictured is Methodist and the VP is allegedly Catholic.

Just sayin’.

NEXT!

Pam Bondi forgot that giving up her reputation and dignity did nothing for job security.

Remember the Trump rules:

• loyalty is a 1-way street

• you must do what he says

• he does whatever he wants

The now former AG was not fired for being dumb but this was a beauty.

Bondi, in a 2025 cabinet meeting said…

“Since you have been in office, President Trump, your DOJ agencies have seized more than 22 million fentanyl pills, 3,400 kilos of fentanyl… which saved — are you ready for this media — 258 million lives”

Quick math check…that's 75% of the population of America. In other words…NO.

She also was NOT fired for NOT sucking up.

Bondi, in that nightmare 2026 Congressional hearing said…

"I find it interesting that she keeps going after President Trump, the greatest president in American history"

Pam Bondi was fired because she didn't do what the big orange man-baby demanded even when it was impossible.

Ironic that she was a record setter with Trump loving to set records.

PETE HEGSETH AT WORK

Pete Hegseth is weak, insecure, and an embarrassment.

He is part Lt. Hauk from “Good Morning Vietnam”, part Col. Klink from “Hogan’s Heroes”, and part Capt. Stillman from “Stripes”.

He is Trump's most dangerous pick.

He just fired the Army Chief of Staff, Randy George…in the middle of a war!

Clearly Pete knows best.

Randy George graduated from West Point. He served in Gulf 1, Iraq, and Afghanistan. He is a highly decorated 4-Star General.

Hegseth was a weekend host on FOX.

Some say he's incredibly threatened by those who know what he doesn't and he’s afraid he'll be replaced. So he keeps firing the “threats".

Maybe, but he also seems to like stopping promotions for women and Blacks.

PRESIDENT BONE SPURS PLAYS WITH FIRE

Donald Trump has no issue with risking other's lives. He's not the first old man to play fast and loose with committing young men and women to war. But this is different.

Trump is a draft dodging, malignant narcissist who lied his way out of Vietnem. But he's ready and willing to send ground troops to Iran.

He is 100% self-unaware and his Epstein distraction fake-tough-guy efforts will get more Americans killed. We just don't know how many will have to die.

__________

WHICH IS WORSE?

The question needs to be answered.

When members of Congress regularly trash Trump behind his back, why do they never challenge him on the record?

Their job is “checks and balances”. Their oath of office is to support and defend the Constitution. In the House and Senate, they are massive failures.

The Republican Senate is particularly galling. They are the last line of Defense against a tyrant like Trump. Yet they silently let him do whatever he wants including starting a war with Iran.

Some say it is fear of the worst of the MAGA base. Others argue they are just trying to save the Republican Party.

While both of those excuses may be partially true, they are cowards for not doing their jobs. In truth they are also desperate to keep those cushy jobs.

They should be ashamed but they are not. In fact they're like the bully they protect by being silent.

WWJJD…WHAT WOULD JUDGE JUDY DO?

At least for now Bert and Ernie can keep their apartment. Cookie and Gonger can keep their food truck. And Elmo can keep driving his Ferrari and sailing his “Tickle Me Dorothy” yacht.

A Federal Judge said Trump’s order to end NPR funding was unconstitutional and unenforceable.

Another Federal judge ordered an immediate halt to construction of the East Wing Trump-strosity ballroom.

The stop is temporary and since Trump never plays by the rules don't expect him to play fair here.

BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID part 2

BREAKING NOEM

Hide your puppies. Kristi Noem is out of Trumpland.

She was fired supposedly for lying at her hearing on Capitol Hill when she said Trump approved her spending 200m on immigration ads starring her.

Trump says he did not. Yet he defended her when she called two Minnepolis protesters "domestic terrorists" without any investigation. They were shot and killed by ICE agents.

He said she was doing a good job after a scathing WSJ story about her travel abuses. He said nothing about her purchase of two private Gulfstream jets (200m more) and rumors that she was having an affair with the "Dirk Diggler" of the Trump era, Corey Lewandowski. Married with children, he has been accused of sexual harassment and affairs with other women in Trump World.

The untold story is on 2026 internal memos from Noem's own department that read...

70% of detainees have no criminal convictions

Only 5% have convictions for violent offenses

You always must be careful what you wish for as the replacement may be worse.

Not for the Ayatollah in Iraq but for Noem at Homeland Security.

Trump wants Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin.

He's qualified on Trump’s scorecard because he always kisses the OrangeAss and he's a fake tough guy.

Mullin even challenged a witness in a Senate hearing to a fistfight.

One big problem may be that in multiple interviews he hasn't been able to stop confusing Iran and Iraq. Not kidding.

As for Noem, her future is cloudy but if she is out of politics she hopes to become the first known professional doggy hitwoman.

WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS

With no final explanation of why Trump started this war that has left thousands of Americans stranded in the Middle East, it would be great if Trump had the best people with him to clean up this political shitshow.

Spoiler alert. He does not.

Lets look at the Trump A-Team.

I'm taking about his Cabinet.

Its as bad as I predicted in my substack in January 2025.

Here's that link:

https://tinyurl.com/4p998exv

Before the individual performance reviews its important to know the truth about what we're up against in this war.

When Clueless Leader was asked how long the United States and Israel could keep up this level of attacks, he responded: “Well, we intended four to five weeks.”

“It won’t be difficult,” Mr. Trump added. “We have tremendous amounts of ammunition. You know, we have ammunition stored all over the world in different countries.”

Hopefully Lt. Wile E. Coyote knows where he left it.

This is not a pushover and a month is not likely.

Here is Iran, by the numbers

2.5 times size of Texas and 12% larger than Alaska

Approximately 1/6 size of the United States and 80x the size of Israel

Iran is mostly mountainous terrain and large deserts

Population of 92 million

Iran's military has nearly 1 million members, with a massive Naval fleet. They also have a huge drone and missile inventory

They are led first by the hard core fundamentalist Revolutionary Guard.

They will not just lay down their weapons as Trump suggested in his many recent interviews.

And since the Commander in Chief is a convicted felon, with chronic draft-dodging bone spurs, isn't it great that he has such an impressive team with him?

Oh that's right. They suck!

Let's get an update now on:

The Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth

Having Pete Hegseth be the lead for U.S. in a war, to strategize, analyze, and make life threatening decisions is insane.

The only thing crazier is that Donald Trump is Commander-in-Chief.

His experience in the military is nothing close to enough. His previous work skills were 3rd string weekend talk show host, and heavy drinking.

Pete has been embarrassing and unprofessional at every turn.

His threats to vets and those in uniform are a joke.

His latest is suggesting media coverage of the 6 soldiers who have died so far is just to make Trump look bad.

Character he's most like: Captain Stillman in STRIPES

Future forecast: ...back at FOX NEWS as a security guard

The Attorney General Pam Bondi

Pam Bondi is a train wreck in heels. She has surrendered the DOJ to Trump.

As a reminder the Attorney General is supposed to be the people's lawyer not Trump's snippy chihuahua.

Trump loves setting records and her tantrums at her last Congressional hearing must have set a record for public humiliation.

Character she's most like: Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction (pic)

Future forecast: She'll host her own daytime show "Judge Vile"

HHS Director Robert Kennedy Jr.

Nothing odd here. He's in amazing shape but only works out in jeans with no shirt.

He continues to make nonsense statements and makes decisions that doctors believe are very dangerous to our health.

Here are a couple Kennedy gems...

"Wi-Fi radiation opens the blood-brain barrier to toxins"

"66% of Americans have chronic diseases"

"50% of Chinese people have diabetes"

His character: a dead bear in Central Park

Future forecast: starting a podcast with his brainworm

Treasury Secretary: Scott Bessent

He is Wall Street rich. He is rude and condescending. He doesn't seem to care that Americans are going broke.

Regardless of the Supreme Court ruling striking down Trump's tarrifs Bessent said, he has a feeling the billions lost by Americans to the Trump Tariffs are gone for good.

Gee, thanks for the sympathy.

His character: Mr. Potter from "Its a Wonderful Life"

Future forecast: His new firm will specialize in foreclosing on newly widowed old women

Commerce Secretary: Howard Lutnick

His look gives used car salesmen a bad name.

He's all over the PedoFiles and forgot a lunch he had with Jeffery Epstein, years after he said he was done with him because of Epstein's crimes.

His excuse is that it was ok because he had his wife, children, and nannies with him.

His character: Louie De Palma (Danny Devito) on TAXI

Future forecast: caddie at Trump National in New Jersey

Director of National Intelligence: Tulsi Gabbard

Gabbard hasnt said much but what is she hiding?

For one thing, Gabbard accused of suppressing a whistleblower report involving foreign nationals and Jared Kushner.

She was also spotted lurking as the FBI seized voting ballots from the 2020 election in Georgia.

Her character: Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell) in "The Americans"

Future forecast: disappears forever in Moscow

DISHONORABLE MENTION

The Speaker: Mike Johnson

Nobody has done less for America and more for Donald Trump.

The list of his pathetic run of doing Trump and defending Trump is too long to detail

The next time he does the right thing will be the first time.

His character: Will, the abused aide to Congressman Furlong, in VEEP

Future forecast: Trump’s personal ball washer anytime he plays golf

The VP: J.D. Vance

He is living the V.P. stereotype in being the errand boy for the President.

Its hard to know what he really believes about anything but his long term stance against foreign wars is blown up now by his support (forced or otherwise) for Trump's Iran war.

If he runs in 2028 he'll have the lingering stink of Trump and his image issues. He just needs to settle on a name...

·       professional crowd pleaser

·       a walking, talking focus group

·       an empty suit with a polling app

His character: he has none

Future forecast: Opens his own love seat/couch store

Deputy Chief of Staff: Stephen Miller

Stephen Miller is very odd. Trump calls him weird Stephen.

His influence over Trump is a mystery.

He is loud, angry, and racist. Those seem to be his better traits.

He appears to be the link to implementing the worst of Project 2025.

His character: human covid virus

Future forecast: intern for Satan

The FBI Director: Kash Patel

He constantly abuses his power. He crashed the party in Italy after the USA Men won hockey Gold...shotgunning beers and loudly dropping f-bombs.

He reassigned FBI SWAT teams to protect his country singer girlfriend.

Rarely seen in his office. Also has regularly abused travel privileges by taking FBI private planes for personal travel

His character: Marty Feldman, Igor from YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN

Future forecast: Mall cop at closed Mall

Press Secretary: Karoline Leavitt

She's the Big Orange Liar's front woman. She's happy to hype his lies.

She's also quick to attack as she just did to Kaitlyn Collins from CNN.

Collins pointed out that Hegseth complained that coverage of the 6 dead service men and women was just to make Trump look bad.

LEAVITT: The press does only want to make the president look bad. That’s a fact. Listen to me, especially you and especially CNN.

Charming.

Her character: Megyn Kelly stunt double

Future forecast: attractive blonde, blindly far right...obviously FOX NEWS

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer

It gets redundant. Hooking up with a security staffer, drinking in her office, and abusing taxpayer funds for personal travel.

NOTE: likely the next to be fired

The Henchmen: Hannity, Ingraham, Watters, etc.

Make America worse. Get paid.

That's the daily job at FOX.

·       They lied about COVID

·       They lied about the 2020 election

·       They lied about Trump’s crimes

·       They lied about the Trump riots of January 6

Future forecast: they'll never change

THE BIG FINISH

Here's the summary:

Trump starts a war

Trump has no plan

People die

Billions wasted

Trump, his people, and the 35% blame Biden and the Democrats

The Dems only Defense is Chuck Schumer writing a stern letter

Be afraid. Get angry. VOTE IN YOUR PRIMARIES.

 Thank you.

Its Primary season.

The Dems are favorites to take back the House and they have a long-shot chance to win back the Senate.

That's if the Democrats don't shoot themselves in the foot as they usually do.

The politics of a new war will make things complicated.

Donald Trump is a documented pathological liar.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu polls only slightly higher than Trump at 40-45%. He is also seen as a huge liar to his people.

In a time of war having your citizens believe you could be lying to them is terribly dangerous.

Add in the fact that both men would likely face jail time if they weren't in office and its hard to believe anything they say -as usual.

Heres what we do know.

The world is a better place without the Ayatollah Khamanei.

He was a blood thirsty murderous thug who led a regime of severe violations of human rights and mass executions of political prisoners including women and juveniles.

We also know the danger was not imminent.

The idiotic statement that Iran could have a functional nuke in a week was laughed at by every expert in the field.

We also know that diplomacy still had a shot.

We know Isreal killed the Ayatollah. That means nothing. None of this would have started without Donald Trump.

The good news is he's gone.

But the question is, why now?

Team Trump keeps changing the story which, for a moment, landed on this gem.

They said we attacked because Israel was going in without us…and then Iran would have attacked U.S. anywhere in the world…so we attacked first.

Its an excuse a 10 year old wouldn't use to rat out his brother.

Let's roadmap that explanation:

Then the Medal of Honor ceremony took another turn.

With 6 American military dead (so far) and Americans being told to leave the Middle East immediately, he inexplicably pivoted to talking about the drapes he chose for the new Ballroom.

So I ask again, why now?

Was it another distraction from the Epstein files?

Was it to try and save his Presidency and prevent another impeachment?

Or was it intel that showed the best chance to take out most of Iran's senior leadership was now.

It seems like a combo platter. That's a reference “Double Quarter Pounder Donny” would understand.

Pick your theory.

1) The Wag the dog theory:

Creating a huge distraction to take the heat off a domestic problem.

The war kills off the Epstein heat and more?

2) The Dead Cat theory: Introducing something new and shocking to take the focus off domestic problems at home.

Starting a war is going to take up most of the news cycles TFN.

3) The “Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic” theory:

Creating something so big the details suck up all the air to discuss anything else.

This administration won't seriously answer the “why now” question.

Like all things Trump, the answer changes to fit his mood or whatever falls out of his mouth on any given day.

Look at the last 8 months of the Iran situation in Trump's own words.

Lets begin with what he said after the bunker busting attack on Iran's nuke system last June…

June 2025..

“Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated”

July 2025..

Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth said:

“Thanks to President Trump’s bold and visionary leadership and his commitment to peace through strength, Iran’s nuclear ambitions have been obliterated”

There's that word again.

OBLITERATED!

It means destroyed, wiped out, never seen again.

Sounds final to me.

When those claims were questioned by reporters Donald and the Trumpettes threw a collective tantrum.

BUT…

Fast forward to February 2026 when Trump, at the first meeting of his ridiculously named “Board of Peace” said he would give Iran 10 days to make a new nuke deal with U.S. or we'll strike.

On day 8 he ordered the giant strike on Iran that killed the Ayatollah and puts us on the doorstep of another war without a plan.

BTW…with this war shouldn't Maria Corina Machado swing back by The White House and take her Nobel Peace Prize back?

Now you may think the President can't go to war without Congressional approval.

Don't be silly.

We all now live in some parallel universe where the greatest country in the world gets held hostage by the dumbest person in the country.

In the first 24 hours Trump's answers were few.

He's was strangely quiet compared to his normal blowhard dance.

So…it looks like their nuke program wasn't obliterated?

Trump may have a medical problem. I think it's called TADD…Trump Attention Deficit Disorder.

*Remember when he said we had to have Greenland?

*Remember when he said we would be running Venezuela?

*Remember when he said that “regime change is a proven, absolute failure” and he promised no new wars?

*Remember when the Republican Congress stood up to him?

So what does this mean for the midterms?

Trump’s numbers have been terrible.

I’m releasing this new poll now. I asked 10 people this question:

He's still under 40% approval.

So much for America first.

No matter how long this war lasts we will need high level performance from the Trump cabinet.

How bad can they be?

Read part 2 of this TWIT on my next SUBSTACK.

Remember its Primary Season. Watch/listen to my podcast LIVE FROM MY OFFICE for a Primary Primer now on YouTube and wherever podcasts live.

Can anyone tell me what a Primary is? Anyone? …Bueller? Bueller?

We are about to enter Primary season where every candidate that will appear on the midterms ballot will be chosen.

This is a very big deal. To most people it’s also incredibly boring.

Please understand that Congress is terrible at their jobs. But also understand that there are some good people doing the job they were elected to do.

Not a lot of them, but those 7 or 8 are trying and that matters.

The other 500+ idiots we picked should do their jobs, so we do not have to worry about this stuff.

Imagine that. Congress actually working for the people.

NOT SO FUN FACTS

Here is what we know about Congress in 2026. A recent poll shows...

75% of those asked said Congress is selfish, incompetent, and corrupt.

25% believe Congress is doing a good job. Unofficially most of those votes are probably members mothers.

Why are people willing to give up all of their integrity for these jobs?

Could be for ego. Could be for influence. Could be the money.

Here’s the average take, perks, and spending by a Congressman:

*Base Salary: $174,000
*Party leaders: $193,400
*House Speaker: $223,500
*Staff budget (salaries, travel, office supplies, etc.) approx. 1 million dollars per House member. The Senate range is 3-5m+.
*Lodging: House members get $250/night while in session

*Perks:

- free health insurance
- lifetime pension starting
at age 62
- 401k matched up to 5% by
the government
- free parking, free gym,
free food at the Capitol,
free postage, free haircuts,
- $80 daily food
allowance
- 6 months plus PTO
-...even limited immunity from arrest

A couple of things stand out. Free gym time should include Dodgeball, where the public can chuck balls at their Reps heads.

Instead of free haircuts let’s make them support the economy and get a $20 trim at Supercuts.

Immunity from arrest? Seriously? The fact that Orange Julius Caesar isn’t in jail should mean this gets dropped immediately!

All told, the rough estimate is
2m - 5m as an annual cost for every member of Congress.

Not bad, but not enough to sell your soul to keep the job.

Let’s do some more math. At an average of 3.5m in cash and prizes for 535 members of Congress...we the American taxpayers are on the hook for almost 2 billion dollars.

Call me crazy but I don’t feel like we’re getting 2 billion in value from this clown car.

GEE STEVE, TELL ME MORE

Let’s agree on this. Most Americans are not nuts for civics and politics. Most are hobby voters. You show up 2x every 4 years. Once for the midterms. Once for the Presidential election.

Its like being a hobby Christian where you only go to church on Easter and Christmas.

I’m not judging. At least not about church.

I am saying as a grownup you need to understand our deeply flawed Primary system and vote. Period.

Here are the basics:

· All 50 states use the Primary system to forward candidates to the general election. There are 3 caucus States but the net effect remains the same

· Each party in each State will have Primary winners that become finalists for office

· These elections have very low turnout in general which makes the votes cast mean much more

· So when the FAR Right and FAR left are the majority of Primary voters you get the election you deserve and the leaders THEY want. They are choosing for you.

THE PRIMARY WEAPON

Who can game the process more? That’s what we’re dealing with here.

The whole system is all about states having power over which candidates they run to win.

There are better ideas waiting to be adopted but it’s hard to imagine these getting of the ground anytime soon:

RANK CHOICE VOTING: It’s like mean girls middle school for Election Day.

You rank a slate of candidates in order of who you like best. Then go as many rounds as necessary until one gets at least 51%.

RANGE VOTING: Think of a lineup for bad guys but in this case you don’t pick just the perp.

You give each candidate a score of 0 -10. 10 being the best. The one with the highest average score wins.

APPROVAL VOTING: Similar to Range voting but in this case each candidate gets a green “card” or a red “card”. Red = 0 and Green = 1. The winner is the one with the highest approval score.

It is kind of a combination of “swipe right” and “red light/green light”.

Then there is the ultimate solution.

ONLINE:

WHY NOT vote online?

20 trillion dollars is digitally moved everyday around the world. Yet we can’t secure digital voting? C’mon!

That is political bullshit to keep the system that works for them.

Voting online is great for lazy Americans. I don’t mean you. I’m talking about the others.

Plus, all the excuses would be gone.

But because it makes sense it may never happen.

That’s why we vote because that’s how change happens.

THE TRUMP GAMES

If you don’t kiss his big orange ass you are now and always will be his enemy.

Plus, Donny knows how to hold a grudge. He holds a grudge harder than he holds a Double Quarter Pounder with cheese.

His move is this. He will have his minions give him a name of some candidate he doesn’t know, and will never meet, to put up against a known Republican who would otherwise win and who Trump believes wronged him in his 4th grade way.

Then Trump will force the Party to throw tons of money behind candidate X to get his way and feel like the tough guy he is not.

That’s one reason why incumbent Republicans don’t speak up. They don’t want to anger the Orange baby-man and have him bully them out of their cushy job.

The other reason is that they are pathetic.

He’s easy to manipulate. Just put his name on something or give him a trophy.

If you really want to see all of the pedo-files, call them The Trump-Epstein files. He will be happy and we will get the truths.

BUT HOW DO I KNOW WHO TO VOTE FOR?

That’s simple. Stop playing Subway Surfers for 10 minutes and do a little easy research.

Whatever your local news sources are can take care of your local races.

National research, including your members of Congress, can be found at any of these sites:

The week began slowly for Orange Julius Caesar but in the end he reached his chaos quota

I NEVER GOT MY INVITE

The big Super Bowl party at Mar-a-Lago will feature an alternative halftime show.

You’ll remember Trump hates Bad Bunny because he spoke out about the terrible treatment of Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria and he slammed the immigration mess now.

So the late Charlie Kirk’s TPUSA is doing a substitute halftime show that the White House says will be wholesome and emphasize “family, faith, and freedom”.

Hmmm...Kid Rock is the headliner. I wonder if he’ll do his family classic “Pimp Of the Nation”?

Here are the actual lyrics

PIMP OF THE NATION

There’s only two types of men

Pimps and John’s

There’s one type of bitch

That’s a hoe

God damn hooker this is my world

God damn time to go

Where’s my doe

It’s startin to snow

All I want is the dollas

I’ve been a pimp so long, gahndi had an afro

Pimp, hold my dick like a holster

Girls want a Kid Rock poster

HE COULD WEAR HIS NOBEL PRIZE THERE

You can’t make it up.

Multiple outlets beginning with Punchbowl News report that when funding was frozen by last fall’s government shutdown there was a solution offered for one big project.

Now follow me here. Trump and his people told NY Senator Chuck Schumer that the President would release money for the 16 Billion dollar Gateway Tunnel between New York and New Jersey IF Schumer would see that Congress renamed Dulles Airport and Penn Station after Donald Trump.

If only he were human and had the ability to be embarrassed.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/rcna257708

COULD HE BE TOO STUPID TO KNOW HE’S RACIST?

1) Trump reposts video of Barack and Michelle Obama as apes late at night

2) Morning comes and outrage begins eventually even including Republican members of Congress

3) The post is finally removed after about 12 hours

4) The White House had multiple excuses including “a staffer did it” before Trump took credit for it

5) He said it was not a mistake and that he reposted it after just watching the beginning

6) The Obamas smartly said nothing

Here’s more...

HAVE YOU SEARCHED YOUR NAME YET?

The Epstein Files are searchable now.

The latest Doc-Dump is full of horrible things that never should have happened and the failures of Dems and Republicans are inexcusable.

Trump is mentioned at least 3000Xs in this ongoing nightmare.

In a normal world this would end any of the other 8.3 billion people in the world.

There’s no reason to believe it will finish Trump.

No doubt history will remember this as one of the darkest chapters in the big orange book of the worst President in history.

Make those who ignored this pay. Throw them out.

LAND OF 10000 PROTESTS!

The people of Minnesota deserve big credit for creating enough noise that Trump’s ICE thugs are leaving town.

700 agents are out immediately. Hard to know how many are left but at least 1000 is a safe guess.

Trump said, “I learned that maybe we can use a little bit of a softer touch.”

So instead of tasing and dragging - I guess you must pick just one.

2 people were murdered by bad policing. The Trump “investigation” in one case will likely drift away but for now it’s still a thing.

What Donald says he learned...

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-lesson-minneapolis-softer-touch-federal-law-enforcement/

THE UNITED STATES OF TRUMP

Until it’s over. When GOD says “check please” and Trump waits for someone else to pay the bill.

Donald wants it all.

The noise about nationalizing the election should scare everybody and cause his own party to speak out.

But what do you get from the Republicans? Crickets.

Among the absolute worst revelations of 10 years of Trump is seeing the truth of the cowards in Congress.

They rip Trump off the record (they’ve said it to me) and they kiss his big orange ass on the record.

They hope this incredibly risky bet pays off. Their wager is they’ll get reelected and keep their jobs BEFORE Trump ruins the country.

And they don’t care about what he destroys in the meantime.

Since Trump is only about Trump, he cares about the country even less.

His nightmare is the DEMS win back the House and Senate and he finally gets impeached, convicted, and tossed out.

That’s a bet no one should make.

So instead of watching Trump steal this fall’s midterms VOTE!

To Nationalize the Primary means stealing an election for real as opposed to his 2020 fantasy that wasn’t...

THE LAST REAL REPUBLICAN IS MTG?

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s breaking point was the Epstein files. When she realized Trump was willing to hide pedophiles and protect them over their victims, she broke.

I couldn’t stand her. She was the Mouth of the House and her blind ignorance to the damage they were doing made everything worse.

BUT she deserves massive credit for being the one to stand up and say she was wrong. She now knows Trump is the problem, not the solution, and she’s sorry she ever fell for him.

She’s not the House mouthpiece anymore but her mouth is what Trump should fear because she’s not stopping and that’s bad news for Donny.

AND WE MUST GO OFF THE BOARD FOR THIS ONE...A LORENA BOBBIT THROWBACK

You get some wacky stories during Super Bowl week and this certainly is one.

New England Patriots Head Coach, Mike Vrabel, said he’d probably cut his penis in half to win another Super Bowl.

Sure, he’s 50 now so he’s probably using it less, but he already has three rings... that’s Super Bowl rings BTW. Are you sure Coach?

Somehow I missed that he previously said he would cut it off completely to win one.

As the TITANS HC in 2019, while on the “Bussin’ with the Boys” podcast, he told hosts Taylor Lewan and Will Compton that he was ready to whack his weenie for a win.

Coach Vrabel said then, “Been married 20 years. Yeah, probably,” he told them, jokingly adding, “You guys will be married for 20 years one day. You won’t need it.”

ANNOUNCER:

THIS HAS BEEN...AND STILL IS...AMERICAN JEOPARDY

What is it about money talk that makes most people doze off or want to run out of the room?

It’s a necessary understanding of finance that leads to better choices when we vote.

And YOU MUST VOTE!

Have you ever said the words, “how did we end up with these two fools” on election day?

Well it’s because you didn’t vote in the Primary. Don’t leave it up to the far right and left. Show up and actually start making change happen.

Primaries as punishment. That’s Trump’s move. He just announced an endorsement of a Louisiana House member who isn’t even in the race yet - to unseat Sen. Bill Cassidy.

Cassidy voted to impeach Trump after his January 6 riots and this is his revenge even though Cassidy has been sucking up to Trump all year to try and avoid his petty B.S.

HAPPENING NOW

A CONFUSED VIKING

Allow me to share a bit from the text Donald Trump just sent to the PM of Norway on his Greenland lust.

“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace...”

That’s right. The 7-year old in the White House is admitting the Greenland thing is also all about revenge.

Read more here from USA TODAY https://share.google/TJSOoFLYP88TvuxVD

O.K...back to the money

Um...excuse me...people...WAKE UP!

When Trump threatens the world with penalty tariffs he shows how clueless he is when it comes to money.

When he threatens the Fed and tries to intimidate the guy he put in charge - he threatens the financial stability of the world.

His latest tariff nonsense is all about his Greenland nonsense.

Eight countries have sent small numbers of troops to support the island. Trump says they’ll all get 10% hits for getting in the way of his Greenland dream.

He’s creating huge tension in NATO and still spouting his “..if we don’t, Russia and China will..” lies.

And its a very big deal for the world and he doesn’t care about the damage he is doing.

He also has trouble answering real questions because he keeps falling sleeping asleep.

Lets make it simple with an example.

Think about your own family finances when you were growing up.

Whether you were rich or poor, money decisions had to be made for the good of your entire family.

Now imagine your family money was all under the control of your idiot little brother.

Instead of responsibly paying the bills all of your family’s money would be spent on Legos, Red Bull, and Monster energy drinks.

Guess who Trump is in that metaphor?

FROM DANGEROUS TO EMBARRASSING

THE WORLD REACTS

Trump got his NOBEL PRIZE.

The true leader of the people of Venezuela is María Corina Machado.

She won the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE but just gave it to Trump because she knows giving in to his whining MAY help her and her people.

Trump said it was a “a wonderful gesture for the work I have done.”

Pathetic.

FROM EMBARRASSING TO DESPERATE

The President spent part of the week tossing out another big idea.

No midterm elections.

He’s admitted the Republicans could get their asses kicked and lose the House and Senate.

His concern is that he’ll be impeached...again.

Here’s that story:

https://share.google/5adnWYMznjbKHCRvN

THE GREENLAND FANTASY ISLAND

The people of Greenland aren’t used to this kind of stress.

Trump seems to be upping the ante on taking Greenland by whatever means necessary.

And still the Republicans in Congress hide and say nothing.

You must remember that when you vote.

The Economic Times https://share.google/wplYcXe3ayRde7RDL

THE MARVEL-LAGO UNIVERSE

The latest scam from the Real-Fat-Shady is his way to work around the U.N.

It’s called the Board of Peace.

- price of admission: 1 billion dollars

- funds to be handled only by Trump

- He alone determines who is in/out

- for 1 billion you get a say on what happens in rebuilding Gaza and other future calamities

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/18/world/middleeast/trump-board-of-peace-gaza.html?smid=nytcore-android-share

1 MILLION DOLLAR PANTIES

And in the wide, wide, world of Trump’s abuses of power there is always the sniff of cover up.

Did he invest nearly a million dollars in buying Victoria’s Secret corporate bonds to possibly buy the loyalty of their former CEO and Chairman Emeritus?

That would be Les Wexner who was Jeffrey Epstein’s financial guru for 20 years.

Wexner has been subpoenaed to testify to Congress on what he knows about Epstein.

I’m sure he misses the old days where he could pay off a porn star to stay quiet at a lower price.

Read the Daily Beast story here:

That’s more than enough for this week just finished.

Thanks for reading T W I T.

And I didn’t even mention his hilarious Wikipedia page.

TRUMP II is not THE GODFATHER Part II. It’s more like CADDYSHACK II. I still have a twitch from that.

A bit of history.

5 years ago Donald Trump stood in front of a mob he generated and started a riot.

Days ago he greenlit the kidnapping of the self proclaimed President of Venezuela. Admittedly a very bad guy but we generally don't dabble in kidnapping.

Rioting, kidnapping, convicted felon…that's our President Donald Trump.

A bit more history.

When Trump was elected in 2016 he had a very impressive cabinet.

Eventually he got rid of all of them but history shows that Tillerson, Mattis, Kelly, McMaster, and Haley did their best to protect Trump from Trump and to protect US for as long as possible.

Over time the Big Orange Houdini escaped from everything that could have ended him. Every time it seemed he was finished - he was not. He always lived to grift another day.

In Trump II, the sequel, he returned and pardoned 1500 convicted criminals who rioted in his name 5 years ago.

How this lawless, lying, lunatic got elected, reelected, and stayed out of jail will be discussed forever.

But wait, there's more…history.

In an insanely dangerous ruling, the Supreme Court has given him a stay-out-of-jail free pass as well.

And this time there's no cabinet to save us from this President.

But I did get their holiday card.

This new Cabinet is more than useless. This time Trump has surrounded himself with ass kissing incompetent boobs who are frighteningly unfit for the jobs he gave them.

I laid out all of this in an early cabinet scouting report in my substack on 1/15/2025.

So what we have here is a President who is unrestrained in what he wants to do and there is no obvious roadblock to stop him.

He's never fully faced consequences for his actions. Why wouldn't he believe he can do whatever he wants now?

So I have questions and answers…

Q: Wasn't this an amazing military display?

A: Absolutely brilliant. But it doesn’t mean we shouldn't challenge it. And you know Trump and his minions HATE being challenged!

Q: If you're going to go to all that trouble, why just Maduro and his wife?

A: Possibly not enough room on the plane?

The obvious problem is the Maduro gang we left behind are proven to be very bad people.

So it's bad as ever for the people of Venezuela and I see no reason to believe it's better for US.

Q: Isn't it ironic?

A: Yes it is. Among the justifications that Trump has given for the kidnapping is that Maduro stole the last Presidential election.

He did. I'm just not used to Trump telling the truth about rigged voting.

Q: Why do this now?

A: Let's spin the WHEEL OF REASONS!

Q: Will we really be running Venezuela?

A: Have you seen how things are going here? Hasn't Venezuela been through enough?

Q: Are we really taking their oil?

A: The Trump administration has announced that we will take 30-50 BILLION barrels of the oil...sell it...and keep the money.

The ultimate use of the sanctioned oil cash is TBD.

WITH NO SPECIFICS the classic Robert Fulgham book applies.

As you learned in kindergarten "don't take things that aren't yours".

Actually the entire book should be mandatory for everyone in Trump world.

Q: Does Trump have any ideas to help the people in Venezuela who are most in need?

A: The guy who tossed out possibly turning all of the destruction of Gaza into a Trump branded resort must be working on some new big ideas like maybe, POLO FOR POOR PEOPLE?

Q: What will China and Russia do?

A: This is the big question but the short answer is Putin has his self-created Ukraine nightmare and China has billions in the hole already in Venezuela.

So one theory is Trump has given both China and Russia a break and possibly created another Afghanistan for US.

Q: What does the world think?

A: The yelp reviews are still coming in but the London tabloids sum it up for most of the world

Q: Will American oil companies jump in?

A: Anything is possible but with absolutely cratered infrastructure and threats of deadly violence daily...no company is screaming PICK ME, PICK ME!

Q: What will Trump take next?

A: He just can't stop thinking about Greenland.

Why?

His security argument is nonsense. We have the ability to upgrade and support Greenland now.

A military takeover would destroy NATO and possibly trigger WWIII.

Maybe he wants their huge supply of rare earth minerals or maybe it's just a boy and a dream.

If Trump ever did take over Greenland you know he's changing the name.

Q&AQ&AQ&AQ&AQ&AQ&AQ&A

The questions keep coming. The answers are always changing.

The world is a better place with Maduro gone but Trump has created a big steaming pile of NOW WHAT?

Meanwhile nothing gets done here on affording anything. The ICE raids are a disaster. And Trump's approval rating is dropping faster than his eyelids during a meeting.

EDUCATE, PARTICIPATE, to find better people to LEGISLATE.

VOTE in your primaries. Here's the national calendar for all states.

Remember our new working title of a slogan...

"Get rid of the DICKS in 2026"

Thanks for reading, sharing, and subscribing.

My LIVE FROM MY OFFICE podcasts are on YOUTUBE and you can also listen on Apple, Spotify...wherever you get your podcasts.

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU SURVIVED 2025!

Its only been a year. I know. How is that possible?

Tariffs and boats to blow up. Immigrants to kidnap. The work of the Trumplicans never ends. Outrageous threats. Criminal grifts. And, oh, so many naps.

You would think Article 4 of the 25th Amendment would be put in play.

Ah…the obvious road block is asking anyone in Washington to do the right thing.

Short of Constitutional removal of Trump we continue the effort to make sure you know just how bad he is at the job.

That’s why we are looking in the rearview mirror.

So, Orange Santa, lets remember all the stupid you do as we may have forgotten a few.

Welcome to this special episode…THE YEAR IN TRUMP 2025!

YOU GET A PARDON, AND YOU GET A PARDON…

They were arrested, and convicted in court, by juries of Democrats and Republicans too.

None of that mattered to Trump. More than 1500 thugs were given pardons on day one of Trump II. They did the crime. They did not do the time.

ELON MUSK AND BIG BALLS!

Donald Trump would not have been elected without Elon Musk’s money. He gave more than 290 million dollars to Trump and other Republicans.

Trump gave him the Government to do as he pleased.

BTW, “Big Balls” is the nickname of Edward Coristine. He’s a 20 year old programmer who Musk green-lit to help decide which career Federal workers would get kicked to the curb after they were forced to justify to “Big Balls” why they shouldn’t be fired. No experience necessary. He had none.

TRUMP DID THOSE THINGS and many, many more. But he also did the other stuff. The things that would have gotten any of the other 44 who have held the office, thrown out of the office. You know…the weird stuff.

CANADA AND GREENLAND TOO!

Trump has always wanted Greenland. Why? Is it the fjords and the Viking history? Not likely. What about Panama and Canada? He said we would take those as well.

Like most of his big plans, it never happened but in the process he looked insane and made America a worldwide punchline again.

WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH TRUMP AND WATER?

Was it a bath time incident with a servant? Or was it childhood trauma from a bad day at the waterpark? No one knows why but Trump has a BIG water problem.

He said California wouldn’t let him turn on the water to put out the deadly fires. He had some fantasy about a giant faucet. There was no shortage to fight the fires. There was no faucet.

He constantly whined about water pressure. Showers that just dripped and having to flush 10-15 times were his nightmare. No one had the problem. No one.

Then there’s the windmills. The thing Trump hates most in life are windmills. He says they kill all the birds and drive the whales crazy. The whales are fine. We have plenty of birds. Yet the most powerful man in the world spends much of his day crippled by his fears of WATER!

NO…YOU CAN’T HAVE A “FREE” PLANE (OR CAN YOU)

1. Qatar gave Trump a new 400m 747 to replace Air Force One

2. People screamed ITS A BRIBE!

3. Security retrofitting may cost 1 billion dollars to U.S.

4. Trump said it would be stupid to turn the “gift” down

5. Congress (Republicans) let him have the plane

GOLDMEMBER STRIKES AGAIN!

Pimping the Oval Office wasn’t enough. Trump put up a lot of stupid gold signage everywhere and added a “walk of fame”.

The hallway of Presidents is lined with gold plaques about each President and completely loony comments slamming them and/or tying Trump to many of them.

Biden, Obama, and Reagan excerpts above, including the claim that Reagan was a fan of Trump.

In fact he barely knew Trump and White House records show Reagan actively avoided him at all costs.

FLIP THAT WHITE HOUSE

Understand this. The wiring problem between Trump’s ears is seen most clearly in his destruction of the East Wing and his claim that everybody wants him to build a ballroom. No, no they don’t.

MASSIVE NARCISSISM + NO DECENCY OR HUMANITY + CRUELTY = DONALD TRUMP

He reposted an A.I. video of himself…shit-bombing legal protesters. He made the horror of the Rob and Michele Reiner murders about him and trashed Rob Reiner in the process.

Then he put his name on the Kennedy Center. A literal monument to the assassinated former President.

Like most things Trump…this move was illegal.

Just hours after the death of JFK’s 35-year old granddaughter Trump took to social media to slam the Kennedy family and question their commitment to the arts.

Congressional Republicans and RFK Jr. said nothing.

EVERY SILENT REPUBLICAN GETS A SET OF TRUMP KNEE PADS

FACTS:

The 119th Congress only passed Trump Bills and will be remembered as one of the greatest examples of legislative failure in the history of the U.S.

The Senate in particular is worthy of the most blame for never standing up to Trump and only protecting their miserable jobs.

The cowardly silence of the Republicans was an embarrassment. The treatment of Marjorie Taylor Greene when she stood up for the Epstein victims is why more Republicans are quitting instead of fighting Trump.

The Democrats get no free pass. Chuck Schumer failed and flailed all year and there is no belief they will sweep into power because they have given no solid reason why they will be better for America - other than TRUMP SUCKS - and we have that covered here.

Thanks for reading and please subscribe here, and to my LIVE FROM MY OFFICE podcasts.

Meanwhile we’ll work on a new slogan because all we have now is GET RID OF THE DICKS IN 2026!

I’m taking a Trump break to bring you this public service because I’m too tired to deal with another of his DAILY - DENY, DISTRACT, and DELAY routines.

So instead I’m offering a last bit of holiday help.

As you know, there are a million gift guides for the holidays filled with common sensible advice.

Good for them.

As I see it, my job is to bring you the ultimate gift guide for most Americans.

Honest and to the point, this is the first annual gift guide for DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILIES!

Recent statistics indicate 88.4% of all families are dysfunctional. If you're not sure about your family - trust me they’re dysfunctional too.

Let's begin with an obvious solution to the gifting problem.

While everybody else is buying from Amazon you could go a different route with these classy choices from the category "AS SEEN ON TV".

Admit it. You want these. Your area will get the special treatment it deserves for $39.95. It’s like a spa day for your ass.

Or you can step up to show you respect her. For just $29.95 you can stop before you stink again with the “Better Marriage Fart Trapping Blanket”.

BUT WAIT…THERE’S MORE

If you do decide to go the traditional Amazon route you may consider these items available on Amazon right now!

No more Cheetos-fingers for you. Why hasn’t this genius been given the Nobel Prize?

Or maybe you know someone who is tired of losing every argument at home. Well those days are over because you can stop any conversation cold with just one push of the SCREAMING GOAT BUTTON.

In the end the best choice for your dysfunctional family could be the truth.

As in this Christmas letter...

Or this lovely holiday card...

Hopefully you'll be invited to the family party...

Personally I like the idea of custom gifts that reflect personal relationships like this shirt that dad could wear around the whole family

Or this shirt where dad states what he needs

There's a hat that's perfect for how the family feels about your uncle

And let's not forget your grandparents. Grandma this one is for you!

And who doesn't like having fun with grandpa?

Hey, maybe it's time to even the score with your sister

And the family got you chapstick for when you're sucking up at work

And how are mom and dad getting along?

Every holiday mom always says something memorable

Lastly, if you just can't stand the site of your aunts new boyfriend, tell him where he ranks in your world

I hope this hard work helps you.

Wherever you are and whoever you're with - Merry Christmas to your dysfunctional family!

Thanks for reading, subscribing, and sharing with your friends.

I just had a full-knee replacement,and while we wait for the Goodyear blimp swelling to go down,I decided no more time could pass before a brand new TWIT! That's THIS WEEK IN TRUMP...stupid summarized here!

BTW, the picture may be disturbing for some viewers ...

On this TWIT:

- Aint no party like a terrorist party

- Hey Trump, it's me Marjorie

- Dead donkey walking...and MORE

BUT FIRST:

PREVIOUSLY ON T.W.I.T

We knew a full cabinet meeting was coming to give the current President what he loves most - people kissing his ass.

While they went around the incompetent horn with Trump love it became clear that Donald was drowsy.

After a social media orgy the night before, where he pumped out almost 200 Truth Social posts, he was clearly sleep-deprived.

But this...was ridiculous.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/see-every-angle-of-donald-trump-79-nodding-off-in-his-own-cabinet-meeting/ar-AA1RCwAh

Let's begin with a simple question.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE?

That's a question for Republicans.

You don't have to vote for a Democrat. But do you really believe there are no better Republicans out there than Donald Trump and his ass-kissing circus?

Just over a month ago Donald Trump reposted an A.I. video of him flying a fighter jet over protesters and bombing them with shit. The guy in the White House literally shit on Americans.

On Thanksgiving night, he got on his 'Truth Social' and took shots at MN Gov. Tim Walz. He made up more stories about crime and horrors there in MN and wrote, “The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both.”

The fact that Trump knows Walz has a special needs son is awful but think about our history.

No President of any party has ever acted or talked like Trump.

Because NO ONE SHOULD!

The midterms are less than a year away. If you're going to vote Republican...find better Republicans!

Start looking now!

ITS LIKE I DON’T EVEN KNOW YOU!

There were times when it was easy to dismiss Marjorie Taylor Greene as just another Trump nut.

Those days are gone.

The "Jewish space lasers" lady from Georgia has followed the holiday path of Scrooge and The Grinch before her.

Turns out she has a heart and has defended the Epstein victims again and again.

Greene just announced she's out! She called out the pathetically weak Republican men, and Trump too, and said, "There are no leaders that will save this country".

Of course, she knows that standing up to Trump means he will primary her by putting up some Republican against her and force the money to that candidate.

For the 1 billionth time, the only way to combat this Trump revenge game is to VOTE IN EVERY PRIMARY!

That negates the low turnout factor and can stop this election fixing.

So what did MTG get for her blind Trump loyalty? He called her a traitor and said her barrage of phone calls was annoying.

With Trump, loyalty is always a ONE-WAY street.

Ho, ho, ho Marjorie - big picture, you win!

BIG ORANGE BULLY CALLS SKINNY GIRL "PIGGY"

Should we be surprised that the "grab 'em by the pussy" guy has no respect for women?

His long history of dumping on female reporters hit a new low when Catherine Lucey from Bloomberg News asked about the Epstein files.

Trump's response was "quiet piggy".

Mary Bruce is a well-respected White House reporter from ABC News. She asked a legitimate question and Trump told her she was a terrible reporter and a terrible person.

The humiliation list is long and includes Mika Brzynski and Megyn Kelly. Both have sold out and gone back for more but these women won't be the last.

'Quiet, piggy'| CBC News https://share.google/6OWu1CggEbgjxmI1s

HIRE A CLOWN, GET A CIRCUS

Having faith in the courts to protect our democracy isn't easy.

One sign of hope is the Federal Judge who tossed Trump's latest attempted abuse of the Justice system.

When he decided to take revenge on James Comey and Leticia James both cases looked weak.

What actually killed them was that the handpicked revenge wrangler was declared ineligible to prosecute the case.

Her name is Lindsey Halligan. She has little to no experience, and like the DOJ, is in WAY over her head.

Expect an appeal of the ruling.

**Lindsey Halligan is disqualified — what comes next - POLITICO https://share.google/4B6eS0sY3SVZ9Tt2E

GET A PIECE OF THAT PEACE

The Wall Street Journal continues its great reporting with the truth of the Trump peace plan.

Shocker - it's all about the money.

Trump's people met Putin's people to talk about what Russia and the U.S. could do together. Ukraine was not involved.

Russia wants its frozen assets back. They say whatever they make off the end of the war would go back into business with U.S.

Is it illegal? Sure it is. Will it stop? Nope.

But remember Ukraine asked for none of this. The unprovoked Russian war has cost 50-100k Ukrainian lives.

Apparently, to the Trump White House, that's good business.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE?

You cannot forget the heroism of a career special ops leader who has never run from a fight. His name is Admiral Frank "Mitch" Bradley.

Try and forget that the Commander-in-Chief is a multiple draft dodger who needed a note from daddy and a fake doc diagnosis of bone spurs to avoid serving his country.

Try and forget that the Secretary of Defense had ZERO experience to handle the Department of Defense when he was narrowly confirmed for the job.

To be fair, he was a weekend morning host on FOX.

In our imperfect system those two "men" now hold the fate of Admiral Bradley in their hands.

On September 2nd, another drone attack on another boat allegedly filled with drugs went very badly.

After the initial strike, there were two survivors clinging to the remainder of their boat.

That's when Hegseth supposedly gave the order to kill them all.

In a normal world, this clear war crime would have led to Hegseth's resignation and war crime charges.

In this abnormal world, the cover-up is on, and the blame is shifting to the Admiral.

Adm. 'Mitch' Bradley will next deal with Congress and tough questions about exactly what happened.

If he says he was following Hegseth's orders his career is likely over. If he says it was his call he could face criminal prosecution.

All of this distracts from the Epstein files but puts Trump and Hegseth in this fire too.

NONE of this has to happen.

By the way, while Trump pretends he's the world's only hope against drug thugs, he really is just the world's biggest hypocrite.

The V.P. died at the age of 84 after a lifetime with a bad heart.

Dick Cheney may have been a bad guy. He may have made some dirty money. As for the rest you have heard - it's just not true.

Cheney did not orchestrate the war in Iraq. He and Rumsfeld were both hawks, but by all accounts, that miserable war began over bad Intel and the looming threat of another 9-11.

He admitted he favored waterboarding and while those with real experience in torture, like Sen. John McCain, said we should never engage in those techniques, Cheney is still entitled to his opinion.

The V.P. shot his friend in the face. It was a hunting accident, but yes, he did it. The fact that he didn't run to make a media statement shouldn't surprise anyone.

That's Cheney. The other guy is just a dick.

DONNY AND THE DEATH THREATS

Well, look at this. Some people have had enough.

There are national security vets in Congress who spoke up and spoke out. They're concerned about continued military "invasions" on the ground in American cities - among the growing list of unethical and illegal activities of the Defense Department.

A national campaign urging active military to NOT follow illegal orders set Trump off. Then came the death threats from the White House and beyond.

Remember it's ok when Trump does it. It's never ok when someone does it to Trump.

THE B.S. IN M.B.S.

The President giddily welcomed the Saudi Crown Prince to the White House.

After an embarrassing ass kissing by Trump, Mohammed bin Salman left D.C. with almost everything he asked for and more.

This is the same MBS who ordered the dismembering of the Washington Post writer, Jamal Khashoggi. Trump responded to the Kashoggi question by saying "... things happen".

This is the same Saudi royal family who seemingly looked the other way while their U.S. Ambassador and big money Saudi charities funded and protected the 9-11 hijackers.

WHY would we have ANY relationship with the Saudis? It's complicated.

They have been our #1 Arab ally in the Middle East. They are important militarily and to our energy supply.

BUT in Trump's case, it's likely simpler than that.

Donald Trump's family has more than 2 billion in Saudi money coming their way. That's the low-end estimate.

IT'S THE ECONOMY, STUPID!

Trump doesn't understand what real people go through every day.

As I've said many times, he's just not smart.

He claims the economy is fabulous. It's not. He claims prices are falling. They are not.

His tariffs are dangerous and dumb. His facts are lies

HE LOVES ME NOT, HE LOVES ME?

New NYC Mayor Mamdani didn't know what to expect when he met Orange Julius Caesar at the White House.

What he got was a love fest.

Why would the President go from calling Mamdani names and threatening NYC to kissing up to the boy wonder of politics?

My theory is based on what I've seen Trump do for years. That is talk tough about someone unless they're in the room...when he always backs down.

AND FINALLY...

ICYMI Trump now says he wants the Epstein files released.

Of course he does. He's fought that idea for months, but now that he's finally a guaranteed loser on this, he's all in.

The 'look over there, not here' move is the standard. His words and deeds appear on video and in direct quotes but that never matters.

Remember...he didn't say what he said. He didn't do what he did.

Just ask him.

It's Donald Trump's Halloween costume. He's pretending to be the President.

WHAT A GUY!

THE HALL OF SHAME

Before we begin to boil down another exhausting week in TRUMP, let’s honor a man who has earned this distinction.

As John McCain's wingman, he was generally well regarded, but after McCain's death, he became the epitome of the worst kind of politician.

He is dishonest, disloyal, and willing to say anything to keep his congressional seat.

After 20+ years in the Senate, Lindsey could use his clout to help, but instead, he is just another Congressional failure who makes everything worse.

Congratulations, Senator Lindsey Graham and welcome to the Hall of Shame.

YO MAMA

You're a reporter doing your job.

You text the White House to ask a fair question.

Then it turns into 5th grade.

The writer from the HuffPost asked the Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, who had made the suggestion of Budapest as a site for a Trump-Putin meeting.

Her reply..." Your mom did". And then she insults the reporter and tells him to stop texting her his "bullshit" questions.

Several others, including the communications director, have done the same thing and Trump approves of the behavior.

You can't make it up.

A PLACE TO DANCE WITH THE DEVIL

It's not ballroom touch-ups, but actually a 300m rehab project at the White House. But who's it for because nobody asked for it.

This isn't touch-up paint and new carpeting before selling your place.

This is a huge project that Trump is naming after himself and he isn't building it for whoever comes next.

Does anyone believe Orange Julius Caesar will actually leave voluntarily in 2028?

He finally admitted he can't run again but that doesn't mean he'll take the high road and do the right thing.

Remember he is the only President to NOT take part in the peaceful transfer of power when he lost in 2020.

All of this is only for Trump. If he lives to the 2028 election - no matter what shape he is in, his people will do a "Weekend at Bernie's" and prop him up for more.

Consider yourself warned.

WELL, HE LIKES TO TALK ABOUT HIS RECORDS

Trump is about to set a record for the longest government shutdown in history. That was a 35-day debacle when Trump was President in 2018.

As for now, the damage being done doesn't seem to bother him a bit.

The big pumpkin head has said:

- The shutdown is good because he can use it to cancel "Democrat programs"

- 750,000 Federal workers are out and unpaid. We're on the verge of epic travel delays for Thanksgiving.

- Most importantly food assistance (the SNAP program) for 1- in - 8 American families will end on November 1.

Trump rarely shows sympathy for anyone while he constantly whines about how he is mistreated.

He has repeatedly said that when the shutdown ends not everyone will get paid.

He said some workers "...don't deserve to be taken care of".

So, while he leaves the government in limbo he is finishing off an Asian trip that didn't need to happen now.

Unless he really needed to go pick up that gold crown he got from South Korea.

WASHINGTON, LINCOLN, and CHEETOS

The "D" in Donald has always been for delusional.

He compared himself favorably to a couple of other Presidents you may know...Lincoln and Washington.

There are similarities. One started the country. One saved the country. And Trump is destroying the country.

THAT SOUND; YOU HEAR IS REAGAN SPINNING

The "T" in Trump is for tantrum.

When Canada bought an AD featuring Ronald Reagan trashing tariffs, Trump went crazy-er.

He said Canada made a fake commercial. They did not.

Trump's confusion comes from Reagan acting like a President should - not like someone who doesn't understand anything about the job.

Reagan talked about the negative impacts of tariffs, decades before Trump demonstrated what a mistake it is to do what Trump has done.

DUMBER AND DUMBER

Don Jr. and Eric take after dad.

They are actively exploiting their Government connections to take in billions of illicit dollars.

The polite terminology that is used is that they may be - engaging in conflicts of interest.

The truth is they are illegally enriching the Trump family through shady crypto operators like this guy...

Meet CZ.

He's not a good guy.

He just got a full pardon from Trump. His firm did business with Hamas, Al-Qaeda and websites that sexually exploit children.

Why did he get pardoned?

Could it be his crypto connections that benefit the Trumps?

EVERY DAY IS GARBAGE DAY

Trump lets these ladies take out his garbage.

You have to wonder if they have any regrets over their life choices.

If the Dems ever get their shit together, Bondi would likely face criminal charges for multiple incidents as Attorney General, including her hiding the Epstein files.

Karoline Leavitt will get to live the rest of her life being remembered as the front-woman for the worst President in American history.

As noted in the "yo mama" story, Leavitt is quick to anger and very juvenile.

Exhibit #2 came when she responded to a challenging post from the Governor of Minnesota with the words, "Stop lying, tampon Tim!"

What a great time to be alive!

HE REALLY IS LITTLE MARCO

No one will feel sorry for MS-13 gang members. Still many in our custody were informants for our government against the gang.

That was no problem for Secretary of State, Marco Rubio.

When the government of El Salvador demanded we hand those informants over Rubio quickly agreed.

That deal was made so the Trump administration could send 100s of Venezuelan immigrants to a notorious prison there and their President Bukele could look tough on crime.

The problems:

- This killed our investigation into Bukele's corrupt administration

- This threatens the credibility of future informant possibilities

- It's a slap in the face of U.S. agents who risked their lives to grab those men

I'm old enough to remember when Rubio mocked Trump and said things like this...

“He is a con artist", Rubio said. “He runs on this idea he is fighting for the little guy, but he has spent his entire career sticking it to the little guy — his entire career.”

Rubio desperately wants to be President and he keeps demonstrating that he'll always sell out to please Trump so his White House dreams won't get derailed.

JUST CALL HIM FREDO

It must be hard to be the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.

You are second in line of succession to the Presidency but you have ZERO power to do anything but kowtow to the Great Orange one.

Johnson's signature move is to be clueless.

Ask a difficult question and he'll never have an answer because he usually "...hasn't had time to look into that."

Like all of those who have sold their souls to Trump, it's hard to imagine this ends well for little Mike.

TIGER, ELEPHANT, GIRAFFE, DO OVER

The results are here.

Trump is demanding that the Justice Department investigate former Attorney General Merrick Garland, former FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Special Counsel Jack Smith.

He's demanding that those 3 go to jail for rigging the 2020 election.

Here's why that's just the latest insane statement from the President.

1) Wray was appointed by Trump to run the FBI. Forget about the fact that Wray wasn't in the Federal Government in 2020. If he was rigging the election why did Trump hire him?

2) Merrick Garland was Biden's AG and was so slow to act on the cases against Trump which actually helped keep him out of jail.

3) In 2020 Jack Smith was investigating war crimes in Kosovo.

None of these three had anything to do with Trump's fantasy rigged election.

Wait, there's more.

In a bizarre speech aboard a NAVY aircraft carrier, Trump rambled on about his obsession with evil magnets and was wrong about literally everything he said to the very confused crowd watching him.

In other words, Trump needs another check-up from the neck up.
