While the felon is rightfully getting dragged over this, don't forget

- Grocery prices are up

- Healthcare costs are up

- Tariffs are putting screws to people

- The debt is higher

- Job cuts and layoffs increased in January

- ‘Immigration enforcement’ entails detaining citizens, people who came here the right way, killing citizens, lack of due process, lack of judicial warrants, no masks and body cams

- All while the rich get even more richer and another round of trickle down fails

Stay locked in on this other stuff, too. Vote Blue 2026.

Sadly, I've become desensitized to the felon's nonsense

The video of the Obamas, while disgusting, while awful, is not shocking to come from you know who. It would be more shocking if the felon actually denounced the video of the Obamas than if he never posted it.

And this continues on and on and on and on because not enough people have the fortitude to say the word, ‘No.’

This is also why I paid little-to-no attention to the cult leader’s legal problems during the Biden years and didn’t get emotionally invested into it. Why? Because I knew somehow, some way, the cretin would get away with it.

And here we are now.

According to Grok on Liam Ramos and Family

- The family came here legally in December 2024, seeking asylum and entered through a port of entry

- There is no order of deportation at the time of detention

- There are no documented crimes committed by the father

Yet, seven members of our own party voted to give ICE-Is *more* money yesterday.

You want immigration enforcement? You want people to enforce the law and deport people here illegally? Do it with trained, qualified personnel who know the law and are accountable without masks and wearing body cameras. Demilitarization must happen.

Those goons and the White House need to be in prison.

Tax dollars for you? For states in need? Nah

The felon would rather squander that tax money in getting laughed out of court:

Donald Trump raged at the latest New York Times/Siena Poll, which shows him with low approval after a year in office, and said that he’ll add what he called the “fake results” to his defamation claim against the Gray Lady.

Trump’s Truth Social post on Thursday is only the latest threat to target pollsters with legal action. He sued pollster Ann Selzer and the Des Moines Register over a 2024 pre-election poll showing him behind in Iowa, yet he went on to win the state.

Also is suing JP Morgan:

Remember, Republicans wouldn’t override a veto they unanimously voted to because the felon didn’t want tax money to fund projects for states in need, but has zero qualms on spending tax money just to get laughed out of court.

I’m not sure America has ever been perfect, but I long for the days that this was a serious country or even tried to look like one.

If the Jenius wanted the Peace Prize so badly

Couldn't the felon have, I don't know, taken steps and led in a way that would've commanded the attention and praise of the committee? Not that that's an ideal way to lead and to govern in hopes of attaining a Peace Prize but look with whom we've been dealing with.

Instead, this creature is now threatening an action that is the antithesis of peace, further erasing what little chance there ever was of winning the prize and forever making FIFA a joke for creating its own peace prize to pacify this thing.

I'm only telling you things even a grade schooler would know, by the way.

What is and isn't up for debate

Debatable:

Putting the felonious vomit in the White House once, let alone twice, may or may not be the worst thing America's ever done (Unfortunately, the options are more than I'd like them to be given different injustices carried out by this country in the 18th, 19th and 20th Centuries).

Not Debatable:

Putting the felonious vomit in the White House twice (especially after everything we knew in 2024) is undoubtedly the dumbest thing this country has ever done.

I would laugh if it wasn't an innocent kid

Trump to child from Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania is great, we won Pennsylvania, actually three times. We won it a landslide.

‘Trump to child from Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania is great, we won Pennsylvania, actually three times. We won it a landslide.’

No one wants to hear election lies, especially not a child, or you making things about yourself and your election denial. It’s somewhat humorous in a pathetic way, just that I feel bad wondering what that poor child did to deserve that.

I’d rather Santa put coal in my stocking.

They are thousands of feet off the cliff

Megyn Kelly said there are times when she still looks to the late right-wing activist Charlie Kirk for advice following his death in September.

Speaking to far-right activist Jack Posobiec at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest in Phoenix on Friday, Dec. 19, Kelly, 55, mentioned Erika Kirk's recent sit-down with conservative podcaster Candace Owens, claiming that Erika had called her to ask if she wanted to moderate the conversation.

Erika, 37, and Owens, 36, met on Monday, Dec. 15, and ended up having a 4 1/2-hour-long discussion, the latter shared on X at the time. In recent months, Owens has been sharing multiple conspiracy theories about who was responsible for Charlie's death, which has allegedly caused a rift between the two, per CNN.

Kelly spoke about the supposed "feud" between Erika and Owens during her SiriusXM show last week, insisting, "It's been going on now for a while," before giving her take on the whole thing.

She then said during Friday's TPUSA event, “I've prayed so many times to Charlie, and to God, to give me the right guidance on how to handle this whole thing..." mentioning that there has been a "fracture" within the conservative party amid the tensions.

She doesn’t pray for Erika, she doesn’t pray for her kids, she doesn’t pray *for* Charlie, she prays *to* Charlie.

When do we take microphones away from all these psychos and put them in padded rooms? Is that why she’s gotten more deranged, more hateful and more sociopathic because she’s praying to and channeling a literal hate monger?

Can anyone explain what made Hillary/Kamala so unlikeable?

We took MAGA to the freaking woodshed tonight, and I love every minute of it, but...

trump is every bit the disaster we knew he would be. After his bungling of COVID and J6, that should've been the end, but the nightmare returned last year. People claim Kamala spewed word salad, while when was the last time trump ever had a coherent thought?

Her laugh was off putting, but COVID, J6, all of trump's crimes, the felonies, Project 2025, Dobbs, and we actually perform our worst in a national election since 1988?

And Hillary - as someone who supported Bernie in 2016, I can't say I was overly enamored with Hillary. Nevertheless, not a thing she said or did was worse in my eyes than trump, nor would she have bungled the COVID emergency as bad, and we'd still have Roe.

I'm glad people are fed up, this is one of the only days in the last year where I've been proud to be an American - probably the first day being when an American got elected Pope, even though I'm an atheist.

But everything we know about trump, how could somebody have looked at everything he's said and done and come to the conclusion Hillary and Kamala were worse?

Conned MMA fighter admits he got conned

"I'm not a biased man. He talked a good game. He tricked me. I was fooled. I admit it," Mitchell said.

———Snip

You know, if you would’ve actually followed politics and current events to even a moderate degree before 2024, you would’ve known what a con man he truly is.

Now, the country and planet are suffering because of poor choices from woefully uninformed voters like yourself.
