Dumbass Mayo-Americans (MAGA rubes) have to start understanding that their continuing support of Trump's Epstein Class buddies and their fucked up policies are costing them more than the alternative. ie: putting people in charge who are a bit more honest and a lot more competent at this whole government thing.

A good place for them to start is getting their tiny brains around the fact that a tariff is a tax - an extra tax - that they pay every time they buy the gas and the groceries and stuff at the hardware store that Trump told them was going to cost them less.

It's costing all of us more. Companies have done some very clever, very sneaky things to make it look like it's not as bad as it really is. There's been a massive move towards shrinkflation. Anybody with two brain cells they can rub together has to notice that we're all paying more and getting less.

And a little side-effect? Trump is figuring out ways to syphon that money into his own pocket. I know - everybody's really surprised by that one, right?

Step Up, People

It's a huge thing. The largest criminal enterprise this side of the Roman Empire - involving sex peddling, and kid-diddling, and possibly torture and murder - is not something that grew out of nothing, and runs on autopilot.

Cooks and drivers and loaders and unloaders and maids and gardeners and plumbers and electricians and tilers and carpenters and garbage guys and every other trade you can think of - out of all of these people, there has to be a few who know things and will spill the beans if somebody bothers to look them up and ask them about that shit.

About That Bunny Guy


Ten years ago, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio was bussing tables, writing and producing his own tunes, and uploading them to YouTube in his spare time.

Now he's the hottest pop star in the world, and he just pulled off one of the best super bowl halftime shows ever - seen by something like 135 million people.

The guy's success story is all about grit and discipline and self-determination. Seems like MAGA should be celebrating him for it.

But they shit on him instead.

Why is that?

It's the policies, stupid.

Howard Lutnick lied.



If they haven't done it already, Congress needs to put out the word that everybody who's ever seen, or touched, or just thought about doing something with the Epstein files needs to lawyer up.

Some of you people are going to prison - and some are going to stay there for a good long time.

And understand that Trump and his gang have been busy trying to politically inoculate themselves against charges of "weaponizing the DOJ" so they can continue to skate free. Dems will have to fix their forever problem with getting their message out to make it all work.

He starts off referencing an event, but not naming it.

At first I thought, 'it'd be helpful if I knew what that event was', but when we're talking about Trump and his gang of autocratic, theocratic, kleptocratic thugs, he could be referencing just about any event on any day.
