  • Trump preaches “peace through strength” but advises Ukraine (and anyone else he wants to dominate) “peace through surrender”

    Trump preaches “peace through strength” but advises Ukraine (and anyone else he wants to dominate) “peace through surrender”

    If nothing else can be learned from Trump attempting to “broker“ an end to Putin’s mass homicide on his Ukrainian neighbor, it is this: he is a deeply conflicted, bipolar man who changes his “values” more than a new mother changes her baby’s diapers.

    When it comes to Trump’s beefs, it’s “fight, fight, fight!” When it comes to anyone else’s beefs, including the vast majority of Americans who are being run over by big government, wall street industrialists, and technocrats , it’s “surrender, surrender, surrender!”

    If you cross Trump, he will cancel you, attack you from every single side, sue you into bankruptcy, and spit on your grave for a good measure. He calls this “peace through strength.” He is the most vengeful president in history. But when it comes to everyone else, they’re on their own.

    If the person or company or upper elite class or entire country (such as Russia with 4,309 nuclear warheads) attacking you is an ally of Trump, though he might help you for a few months for optics, in the end, he will tell you that you need to lay down your weapons, surrender, and give the murderous thugs attacking you what they want—you know, in the name of “peace.”

    If they want your jobs, give them your jobs. If they want your land, give them your land. If they want the entire residential housing market, give it to them. if they want to keep all of their massive profits due to their massive tax breaks Trump has given them and not “trickle down” any to you, let them keep them. If they want to indoctrinate your kids in AI and make them technology slaves, give them your kids. If they want to take over your city and turn it into a massive TSA checkpoint, give them your city.

    And if some geopolitically ambitious, land grabbing, power mad, narcissistic, megalomaniac, despotic monster wants to rob you of your coal mines, steel factories, natural resources, and millions of citizens who power them, by all means get down on your hands and knees, lick his boots, and give him what he wants.

    Don’t “fight, fight, fight!” for your dignity, your freedom, your quality of life, your country, and your child’s future. Don’t “stand firm until the end.” Instead, be a good comrade and give the murderous tyrant thugs what they want. Because that’s what good comrades do.

    But chin up! If you are willing to roll over and submit your life to murderous thug authoritarians, then you will be granted “peace” by the Great Trump and his fellow great tyrant authoritarians. You won’t have a penny to your name or a pot to piss in, you will have less dignity than a stray dog, but you will have “peace”—at least in terms of the “freedom” to stand in line for food rations without fear of being ruthlessly gunned down by government stormtroopers.

    Some people might say I’m exaggerating, but this is not exaggeration, this is the reality of the “Brave New World“ we live in under the insatiable authoritarians and narcissistic psychopaths around the world. Only they get to “fight” in defense of themselves. Everyone else must surrender, including Zelenskyy, and anyone who gets in their way.

    Alas, if it wasn’t clear before, it is 100% clear now in light of Trump‘s demand that Zelenskyy surrender his country to the murderous thug Putin, “peace through strength” is nothing but an empty slogan intended to brainwash people into thinking that they are supporting a noble hero that stands for them, whereas in fact they are supporting despots who are working day and night to enslave and destroy them.

    Of course you’re free to believe whatever you want. But I hope you don’t believe that a country run by an authoritarian regime in possession of 4,309 active nuclear warheads is truly “threatened“ by little ol’ Ukraine or the “eastern expansion of NATO.” If you bought those lies, I’ve got a high-rise condo built on a bed of sand to sell you down in Florida. And yes, I will take payments.

  • Trump approves Putin’s ongoing massacre until Zelensky surrenders…

    Trump approves Putin’s ongoing massacre until Zelensky surrenders…

    That’s the real headline. That’s really what happened at the so-called “Alaska Summit.” You won’t get that headline anywhere else, but it’s the truth. And we called it.

    By the way, Putin never had any intention to stop slaughtering Ukrainians or reach any kind of “peace deal.” The very notion that Putin wants “peace” is so patently false that it’s clinically insane. And by the way, Trump knows this.

    Putin only went to Alaska for a petting and fawning photo opp with Trump and to falsely claim the ball of peace is in Zelensky’s court. Trump confirmed this when he said after the petting session yesterday that he now agrees with Putin that the bombing should continue until a “deal“ is reached. No ceasefire!

    Wait. Hold up. You read that correctly. “Trump agrees with Putin.“ Again. You know what this means right? This means Putin is calling the shots. As we said he is! Yes, we have said multiple times that Putin is calling the shots, oh, and playing Trump like a vintage Gorsky violin in the Russian Philharmonic Orchestra.

    Sorry, Ukrainians, you will have to stay in your bomb shelters until further notice because Putin is, at least in his own words, very insecure about the threat of your tiny little country having the audacity to be sovereign and choose your own alliances, which he claims is a threat to him and his 250 nuclear bombs (eye roll).

    If all of this isn’t disturbing enough, delusional Americans and so-called “conservative“ media outlets are publishing photos of Putin honoring war heroes while in Alaska and praising his decorum and respect for the fallen. Imagine that. The dude who has thrown 1 million of his own military men into the grave in the last three years is laying roses on the graves of military heroes and claiming to be “paying respects.” And the American people praise him for it.

    Alas, there is no “deal.“ There is only Putin’s ongoing murderous insistence that he control Ukraine and Trump‘s ongoing love affair with Putin and insistent that he is a lovely man who only wants peace. That is all there is to see here, sheeple. Talk about a “Russian Collusion Hoax.” 

  • Are Trump loyalists celebrating DC takeover under mass psychosis?

    Are Trump loyalists celebrating DC takeover under mass psychosis?

    I have to tell you I am continually shocked by the ignorance and hypocrisy of Trump loyalists who defend every executive order he signs, no matter how anticonstitutional, anti-American, or anti-logical (and at the same time refuse to hold him accountable for his campaign promises, such as the release of the Epstein files and names).

    They justify the federal government takeover of Washington DC on the basis of another false dilemma: “it’s either drugs, crime, and homelessness or federal government takeover. Take your pick!”

    First of all, that’s what’s called a FALSE DILEMMA. A false dilemma is when you only give two extreme options and no other options. Only fools who are not able to reason make false dilemmas.

    Second, there are of course many other options besides federal government takeover. Washington DC has the worst gun laws in the nation. Citizens aren’t even able to protect themselves. That would be a good place to start. The government could also sanction the city for not enforcing the law. That would change their tune very quickly. Trump does it to countries, why doesn’t he do it to states? Oh yeah, because sanctions aren’t sexy and don’t provide photo opps for Hegseth and Bondi.

    Third, Trump’s “Washington DC is a cesspool with the worst crime in America“ that his supporters are using to justify their false dilemma is a lie. Crime is actually down in Washington DC. It’s not a perfect city, but which city is? And since when does the federal government take over cities with high crime?

    Every city in America has high crime, so much higher than Washington DC. Does the false dilemma apply to those cities also? Should the government take over every single community that has high crime until the whole country is a total police state? Is that what people want, because that is where their stupid false dilemma will lead us.

    Fourth, and most important, there is absolutely nothing to say that the federal government takeover of Washington DC is actually going to bring crime down over the long-term. Do people understand how expensive it would be to maintain this kind of federal police presence in Washington DC? It would cost billions of dollars and it wouldn’t even be a community, it would be more like a prison campus. It’s a totally unsustainable plan for bringing crime down. And it’s a tyrannical plan.

    I find it absolutely shocking how Trump supporters are suddenly pro federal government overreach, pro big government, pro big brother, pro state takeover STATISTS who are looking to the federal government to keep them safe and secure, which is exactly what they have been criticizing the Democrats for doing for years. They have literally become the people they hate. What happened? Some say mass psychosis. That’s probably a good bet because nothing else could ever explain this insanity

  • WHAT? Maxwell now eligible for work release after meeting with Trump DOJ

    WHAT? Maxwell now eligible for work release after meeting with Trump DOJ

    Maxwell must have done Trump an incredible favor because suddenly everything is going great for her. First she got transferred from a high security prison in TN to a low security federal prison in TX, Now her inmate status has changed to OUT, which means eligible to work outside the prison facility with no guards.

    This development is especially shocking since Texas prison rules state that convicted child sex offenders are not eligible for work release. She must’ve done Trump a real solid. What do you suppose she gave him to get such amazing treatment?

    And by the way, are we ever going to get to hear the transcript of Maxwell‘s meeting with Trump‘s DOJ assistant Todd Blanche, who is also the president’s personal former defense lawyer? Whatever happened to being the most transparent administration in history? Trump is actually the most secretive administration ever.

  • Survey says! Trump doesn’t care about black people…

    Survey says! Trump doesn’t care about black people…

    20 years ago next month Kanye West famously declared “Bush doesn’t care about Black people,” after Bush’s dismal response to Hurricane Katrina damage in Louisiana. it was a watershed moment because it totally turned the cultural-political tide in America and opened the gates for an Obama presidency a couple years later. One could say Candace Owens recently did the same when she admitted regret for voting for Trump and called him a “chronic disappointment.”

    Owens, who is the leader of the “Blaxit” movement that encouraged Black people to leave the Democrat party, which had a profound impact on the 2024 election, is a cultural heavyweight (6 million followers on FB alone!), and no doubt her words resonate with the lower classes. That may be one of the main reasons 90% of Black people are reporting that they are done with Trump in a new poll.

    Or maybe it’s because Trump invited them to Washington to celebrate Black History Month but then paraded out the Pfizer CEO and honored him as a “great man.” Or maybe it’s because he laid off hundreds of thousands of black federal workers. Or maybe it’s because he didn’t put any Black people in his cabinet. Or maybe it’s because he has decimated DEI programs. Or maybe it’s because he’s filling working class neighborhoods with federal agents and soldiers. Or maybe it’s simply because they, like many of us, have figured out that he simply just doesn’t give a turd about lower income people, small business, and inflation. Or maybe it’s a combination of all of the above. But one way or the other, according to a new YouGov poll, Black people have abandoned hope that Trump is going to help them, and only a shocking 11% approve of his performance.

    Here’s another reason I don’t doubt the new poll. Because I, an independent conservative, feel the same way they do, as do many of my friends who are not black. Hence the reason I tend to think this latest poll is probably spot on, despite the fact that Trump and his holdout black stans will say it is fake news. But for anyone who doubts all of this, I’ve got two words for them: Candace Owens. That’s all I ever really need to know. If Trump can lose her, and he has, he could lose anyone.

    Oh, another reason I should’ve mentioned for the Trump abandonment is the Epstein coverup, especially since it is one of the main reasons Candace Owens has “walked away” from Maga. I have heard from Black people that they were very excited that republican president Trump was going to hold elites in power accountable for crimes they had committed against children, and they were greatly disappointed when it became apparent that he instead was going to protect them. Can’t blame them. Feel the same way.

    I believe all of this will be a problem for Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. Of course Trump has the power to turn it around before then, but I doubt he will. I think he is on a mission to facilitate the technocrat technology takeover of America, and therefore the economic situation will only get worse and worse for the lower classes, especially as more government jobs, many of which are held by minorities, get replaced by robots.

    One more thing. People who have followed me for a while now that I often say “Trump better be careful, if he loses the culture, he will lose America.“ It’s happening. He is losing the culture. America will be next.

    Here’s the good news, there are a lot of Americans out there from both sides who are fed up with both parties. There is still a chance we could come together for an independent candidate who is neither republican nor democrat and wants to hold both parties responsible for their crimes against the American people. I haven’t abandoned hope for that yet. 

  • Restaurants hurting bad and closing as food prices continue to soar…

    Restaurants hurting bad and closing as food prices continue to soar…

    Donald Trump started his inauguration off by saying we were entering the Golden Age. Since that time he has boasted repeatedly about how “the cost of everything have come down and Americans are enjoying a much higher quality of life than ever before” on his watch. But is that true?

    According to restaurants and bars, that is definitely not true.

    Many food and beverage establishments are struggling. Wholesale food prices are up 17%, beef is up 21%, produce is up 10% or more, and they aren’t hiring anymore. They are cutting hours and reducing food portion sizes in order to survive.

    Case in point. Just recently, my wife and I went to a breakfast joint in our neighborhood. I was shocked that the food barely even covered my plate. They had cut the egg and hash brown size by HALF. I paid $15 for a meal that didn’t even fill me. We said we would never go there again. Since then, I found out that many of my neighbors have decided the same. Sad.

    A growing number of businesses are hurting just as bad as they did during the pandemic or worse. Many are closing for good. Consumers are eating at home way more often now. And it’s all because of continuing inflation that Donald Trump has failed to make a priority of his admin.

    I can’t help but wonder if the situation would be different if Donald Trump actually focused on bringing prices down. Instead, he is focused on punishing universities, slapping massive tariffs on all kinds of businesses, more tax breaks for the ultra rich and investor class, suing and silencing his critics, AI, crypto, expanding his Trump empire, building data centers, and now making marijuana legal and readily available to everyone in every state (as if already dumbed down Americans need one more thing to numb and sedate them).

    Given Trump’s priorities, you could never convince me that this is a man for we the working class people. This is a man who is for the elite class. He is totally out of touch with the majority of American people and our needs, and everyone will feel the pain of his apathy and ignorance on an increasing basis —until people stand up and stay “enough!”

  • Putin wants Trump to bless his power grab…

    Putin wants Trump to bless his power grab…

    Putin is meeting Trump in Alaska next week to convince Trump that Russia must annex (read STEAL) large parts of Ukraine to defend itself against assimilation into NATO and/or the European Union.

    In other words, “We must annex other people’s land so we don’t get annexed.“ In other words, “Annex or be annexed.“ In other words, “We must rob them before they rob us.”

    Of course, there’s no evidence that Putin‘s fear of Russia of being gobbled up by NATO is justified. So WHAT if nations east of Germany have decided to join NATO. That is their sovereign right as sovereign countries. Then again, there’s no evidence that “protecting Russia from the western infidels” is actually Putin’s motive. I mean, he says that’s his motive, but I for one don’t believe him—and never have.

    My long study of Putin informs me that his motive is geopolitical and material. Ukraine has the goods. The mineral goods. Annexing more of it keeps Russia in the trade game and gives them more bargaining power. it also gives Putin more power, and God knows he is power hungry. And you can rest assured he won’t stop at Ukraine. You give Putin a little, and he will take a lot more.

    Before I get out of here, I have to pause to appreciate the insane irony of a land grabber killing millions of his own people and hundreds of thousands of others due to his supposed fear that land grabbers will destroy his country. I think it may have been Karl Marx who said “Always accuse the enemy of the very thing you are doing.” It’s a tried and true tactic of tyrants the world over. And shockingly, people still fall for it.

    As for Trump’s photo opp in Alaska with Putin. Of course it’s a complete waste of taxpayer money. All optics. There is nothing these two dudes will be saying in person that they couldn’t say over a phone call or a freaking Zoom meeting like the rest of the world. One thing is for sure, no matter what is said, or decided, SuperTrump will return triumphantly, waving the peace sign, and telling us that he has restored justice to the world. He would never miss a chance to exalt himself, just like his friend Putin.

    For the record, Trump originally called Putin a genius for invading Ukraine. He said he would resolve the “conflict” in his first 24 hours of taking office. He gravely underestimated the situation and how little Putin “respected” him. He then took the position of the Democrats and admitted the Putin was a land grabber who didn’t want peace. He then continued to send Ukraine weapons and money, just like the Democrats. So much for being different than the Democrats.

    I almost feel sorry for Trump’s loyalists. They are so confused because they had been trained to believe that Putin was the good guy, and Zelensky was the bad guy. They can’t get their minds around Trump’s flip-flop, so most of them don’t even comment on it anymore. So goes the dangers of believing lunatics and their ramblings. Almost. It’s hard to feel sorry for anybody who is willfully ignorant and refuses to think for themselves.

    Finally, Zelensky has always already signaled that he will not allow Putin to rob Ukraine of land, minerals, people, or anything else. Good for him. I won’t go as far as to say I “stand with Ukraine.“ But I definitely stand against tyranny of all kinds.

  • Trump’s waging war on us, not them

    Trump’s waging war on us, not them

    The Trump propaganda machine has been cranking out so much misinformation about tariffs and trade that only those with the highest level of discernment can see what’s really happening.

    What’s really happening is that Trump is waging war on American businesses and consumers through the implementation of anti-free trade tariffs that have cost American companies over $150 billion so far this year. Every single penny of this money will be recovered through all kinds of cost cutting mechanisms that will ultimately be paid by every consumer.

    Trump talks a very powerful game about “punishing countries for taking advantage of America,” but his tariffs are actually only punishing American companies, who have shockingly just rolled over and paid the tariffs without much protest at all— save for a small number of lawsuits, most of which have been rejected by courts.

    You might be inclined to think “The companies must know what they’re doing, there’s no way they would just part with their money and imperil their business.” but the truth is, they actually don’t know what they’re doing. They are every bit as dense as the average American consumer. Many of them are even paying the tariffs with loans.

    What’s really happening is that the tariffs have created a massive economic bubble that is worse than the real estate bubble back in 2006. There are hundreds of economic indicators warning that a recession is coming. I believe the odds are now up to 70%. When that happens, inflation is going to sort through the roof.

    Is Trump and his team really so ignorant to think companies could spend hundreds of billions of dollars on taxes and still remain solvent and profitable while prices remain stable? Shockingly, the answer to that question is yes. it’s hard to believe, but it’s true. They don’t know what they’re doing. They also don’t know what they’re doing with all of the AI technology. They are tinkering with systems that they know nothing about, all the wild, making a monetary killing on all the stocks they are invested in, such as Palantir,

    What’s really happening is an absolute bonanza for Trump and the upper upper class. They are making more money than they ever have during any presidency due to all the technology contracts, partnerships, and taxpayer money being thrown “tech infrastructure” projects that will not benefit the people whatsoever. They’re going as good right now for the 401(k) holders also, but it’s not going to last.

    Sadly, the only thing we can do now is protect our own assets, brace for impact, and wait till it falls apart for the American people to wake up and demand new leadership. Sad it has come to this. Very sad because there’s going to be a lot of pain.

  • Trump says he never had the “privilege” of going to pedophile island…

    Every time you think you’ve heard the worst of it. It’s time to release all the files, unredacted.

  • Palantir stock skyrockets as Trump hands them the keys to the government…

    Palantir stock skyrockets as Trump hands them the keys to the government…

    Anyone who’s been paying attention to what’s been happening in the federal government knows that the AI and military technology company Palantir has been winning contract after contract under Trump to install AI and all kinds of Orwellian surveillance systems that will spy on American citizens. Business insider reports today that they’re stock is going through the roof.

    “The stunning numbers behind Palantir’s blockbuster rally. In its Q2 earnings report, the AI-powered software firm topped $1 billion in revenue for the first time ever. Palantir’s stock is up 130% in 2025, extending its run as the best-performing stock in the S&P 500. It’s also boosted the fortunes of its top execs to brand new heights.”

    I would be willing to bet Trump and his inside circle also have stock in this company and are making tons of money from its meteoric rise due to the securing of multiple government contracts under Trump. It doesn’t take a genius to see Trump follows the money and not much else. 

    For those who have trouble connecting the dots, this means that your tax dollars are paying for an AI technology company to install surveillance and job replacement technology in your government, and you’re elected officials are profiting from it greatly. This means your tax dollars are literally going into the pockets of your elected officials and their inner circle. h

    So, how is this any better than the NGO scheme the Democrats were running? I can argue that it’s actually worse because it involves your privacy and rights. Is this what you voted for?
