“Repeated False Claims”

That's CNN's analysis of Trump's speech.

I can't say it's his dementia. He lies about everything snd always has. Everything said by Trump is and has been a lie, including the articles and punctuation.

Except when he implied that he wanted to bang his daughter. That was the truth.

The "Peace President" at Work, Plus More Racism From the Orange Piggy and Discount Goebbels (and Covering Up War Crimes)

President Donald Trump said Tuesday he is ordering a blockade of all “sanctioned oil tankers” into Venezuela, ramping up pressure on the country’s authoritarian leader Nicolás Maduro in a move that seemed designed to put a tighter chokehold on the South American country’s economy.

Trump’s escalation comes after U.S. forces last week seized an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast, an unusual move that followed a buildup of military forces in the region. In a post on social media Tuesday night announcing the blockade, Trump alleged Venezuela was using oil to fund drug trafficking and other crimes and vowed to continue the military buildup until the country gave the U.S. oil, land and assets, though it was not clear why he felt the U.S. had a claim.

“Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled in the History of South America,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform. “It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the United States of America all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us.”

Anybody want to tell the world what land and oil Venezuela has stolen? Does Grandpa Sundowner now think that he's a memver of some native South American tribe?

Meanwhile, the Ancient Racist is adding more countries to his Operation Ban Brown People From Coming Here.

He's been very specific as to what countries he wants immigration from: Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Nobody has managed to point out to Our Demented Nazi-in-Chief that, to the residents of those countries, the U.S. is a shithole country with bad health care, a failing public education system, an emerging autocratic government and rampant crime committed by gunmen.

In a move that should surprise nobody, our Drunken War Criminal isn't going to release the video that proves that he's a war criminal. To cover up his crime, he's classifying it "top secret".

Finally, Lord Bezos is in the news for giving a neurdivergent school charity $5 million. To which I say: Big Fucking Deal. If a millionaire gave a local animal shelter fifty bucks, neither the shelter or the donor would be putting out press releases. Because, on a percentage basis, that's the same level of giving. Bezos isn't the only rich fuck to make a mockery of charitable giving, both Grandpa Sundown and the Ketamine Rocketman are masters of that.

Awarding These Down, Here

I'm betting he took it to bed with him.

Trump is Both Pathetic and Deranged

Only he would make the murders of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer about him.

He is truly a pitiable husk of a man, one whose soul has already been blasted into cinders.

The GOP is the American Nazi Party.

Nazis of a feather, hang together.

The GOP is merely reclaiming its roots as a Nazi-adjacent party, which they were before Hitler declared war following the Pearl Harbor attack.

Racist and Fascist ICE/CBP

They shut the doors of restaurants with Black patrons in Minneapolis and then demanded that everyone show their papers. All were American citizens.

We need to fire every badge-toting goon at ICE and CBP, bar them from future employment with the Federal government and disestablish those angencies. We'll have to spin up something new, but what exists now is irretrievably contaminated with "officers" who regard the Constitution as if it was printed on toilet paper.

That's at a bare minimum. Investigations and trials must also happen and, if they need to be held someplace, Alligator Alley is available.

And, of course, DHS's gotta go.

C-17 at St. Maarten Airport:

"Swing and a miss..."

Thank You, RFK, jr. and the Rest of You Anti-Vaxx, Ivermectin-Swilling MAGA Idiots

Even your propaganda channel can't hide it:

Thanks again, morons, for turning this country into a laughingstock.

ATTN Deaf People

Trump hates you.

The Trump administration is arguing that requiring real-time American Sign Language interpretation of events like White House press briefings “would severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public,” part of a lawsuit seeking to require the White House to provide the services.

It's yet another example of both Trump's childish pettiness and his utter distain for anyone differebnt from himself.
