Just sayin'...
Anyone have a BEEF with this? 
Although, by importing foreign beef, The Oranganus can drive down the cost of domestic beef and the MAGA (the acronym still works with Argentina BTW) can feast all day long while American farmers go broke, their farms bought up cheap by 'Big Food".
Fantastic mid-game ploy Dumpy, really good job. And thanks GOP for all your support - he really couldn't do this without you. Oh and let's not forget the Media - really great job there boys!
We can ignore the Oligarchs, they were going to get what they wanted no matter what - might have taken a bit more time, but no big deal really.
Tearing down the White House, that's all show and tell - exactly the kind of symbolism Putin wants to see.
I asked ChatGPT to rewrite "American Pie" to be more contemporary...
Bye Bye Democracy Pie
(To the tune of “American Pie”)
🎶 Verse 1
A long, long time ago,
I can still remember how elections used to make me smile.
And I believed if we had our say,
We’d change the course of judgment day,
And maybe we’d stay decent for a while…
But 2016 made me shiver,
With every post the bots delivered.
Truth was hacked and buried —
No facts left to be carried.
I still recall election night,
When red swept in beneath the lights —
I knew then something wasn’t right
The day democracy died.
🎶 Chorus
So bye-bye to democracy pie,
Drove my Prius to the protest but the truth wouldn’t fly.
And them good old boys with their flags held high,
Sang “This’ll be the day that it dies —
This’ll be the day that it dies.”
🎶 Verse 2
Did you write the rule of law?
And do you still believe in all you saw —
When they swore to serve and uphold truth?
Now every court and every seat
Feels like a rigged and deadly cheat
As power clings with claws to fading youth.
Well, I know that you’re in dismay
’Cause I saw your tears on Inauguration Day.
We both felt that old chill
When the mob came for the hill…
They were chanting lies and waving signs,
While livestreams cut through all the lines,
And blood was spilled among the pines
The day democracy died.
🎶 Chorus
They sang bye-bye to the land of the free,
Watched the rulebook burn on live TV.
Them good old boys in the suits and the ties,
Said “This’ll be the day that it dies —
This’ll be the day that it dies.”
🎶 Verse 3
Now for years we’ve been on edge,
Trading norms for tribal pledges,
And trusting memes more than we trust the news.
While freedom’s painted red and blue,
The pundits shout, the trolls break through,
And facts just fade depending on your views.
And while the judges wrote dissenting lines,
The states redrew their coded signs —
No one could tell what’s fair,
With chaos in the air.
And as the Capitol rang with rage and flame,
And no one dared to name the shame,
We watched the game, but not the blame
The day democracy died.
🎶 Chorus
They were singing bye-bye to the will of the crowd,
But the quiet got swallowed by the angry and loud.
Them good old boys took a victory ride,
Singing “This’ll be the day that it dies —
This’ll be the day that it dies.”
🎶 Verse 4
Helter skelter in a Facebook feed,
As truth decays and facts recede —
And algorithms fan the fire.
The prophets warn, the cynics grin,
And CEOs just cash it in,
While civil talk gets drowned beneath the choir.
’Cause the kids today don’t trust the vote —
They swipe and scroll, they sigh and gloat —
They’ve never seen the day
When truth could light the way…
And the courts are packed and the Senate stalled,
While hope gets sold and justice called,
And no one stops the rise and fall
Since the day democracy died.
🎶 Chorus
And we were singing bye-bye to the dreams of the past,
Now the founding words feel too fragile to last.
Them good old boys let the guardrails slide,
Singing “This’ll be the day that it dies —
This’ll be the day that it dies.”
🎶 Verse 5
I met a girl who sang the blues,
And I asked her if she’d seen the news —
But she just stared through broken glass.
And I went down to the sacred mall,
Where freedom used to stand so tall,
But the speakers there had long since left the mass.
And in the streets the silence grew —
The hopeful few, the bitter too —
We whispered of the dream
That slipped into the stream.
And the bells were drowned beneath the storm,
As history began to transform,
And nothing left looked like the norm
Since the day democracy died.
🎶 Final Chorus
And we’re all singing bye-bye to democracy pie,
Once baked with hope, now a cold, bitter lie.
Them good old boys waved their last goodbye,
Singing “This’ll be the day that it dies —
This’ll be the day that it dies.”
🎶 Outro (Soft Repeat)
They were singing bye-bye to the red, white, and blue,
As the eagle stared through a darker hue.
And we the people, silent and shy,
Whispered “This’ll be the day that it dies…”
The Onion documentary "Bad Pedophile" is out
Outlandish and hilarious. The closing credits are the perfect ending.
Demo-kracky
4th mentioned a vid here. It was amazing and funny.

Meanwhile I had a moment to peruse the other vids at the same creators channel - OMG!
This is one of my favorites. Although anything with “Tiggy” in it is hilarious.
I've read through the entire Epstein birthday book...
The MSM is only mentioning 5% of the content.
There is about 50% that rather mundane… but the rest makes you squirm. There was some creepy shit going there, and the birthday book is just a small glimpse behind the curtain.
For example the note from bill clinton…. Just weird.
UPDATE: for those thinking this was a “hit job” post targeting Clinton, well… you can all get stuffed. ALL I WAS SAYING WAS THAT IT WAS “WEIRD”.
That is all. And frankly it is - to me.
Many of you may think it’s completely harmless. Just a matter of coincidence. I think that is also an equal possibility. But then equally…
Ad Fontes Media - news source bias comparison chart
A very interesting news analysis website.
Playing with the knobs likely tells most of us what we already know - which sites and news sources are considered reliable.
But for new folks or those that have not considered it, this is a great resource to check a few times a year.

Hope it helps...
There's something about that birthday card that creeps me out.
I read the original text and the reference to the "Enigmas" reference to a French word "gamine" - a childish young girl.
I couldn't help but think the entire text was a anagrammatical puzzle (Which I'm terrible at) so I asked my friend to have a look. he's actually pretty good at this stuff.
Here's the original text of the birthday card according to the media...
Voice Over: "There must be more to life than having everything,"
Donald: Yes, there is, but I won't tell you what it is.
Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.
Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it.
Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?
Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.
Donald: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.
And here's the version my friend came up with...
Voice Over: "The forbidden event gave men hunger—still, they thrive."
Donald: They still won’t see it — but you? I tell white truth lies.
Jeffrey: Now I lie — I still know what’s inside. A chosen twist.
Donald: Confess, Jeffrey: we watch in the mirror, one craving the same.
Jeffrey: It chose us. We do think of the yet-to-come.
Donald: That secret never aged — it hides behind the gate you opened.
Jeffrey: Last time I saw you — the secret met me after. It was clear.
Donald: This bond — a final whisper. What you gave me, I now seed into each wonderful secret day.
This is all just made up and a clearly hypothetical exchange, but yet quite unnerving.

Dutch government Collapses
Source: www.DW.com
The Dutch coalition government led by Prime Minister Dick Schoof fell apart on Tuesday after Geert Wilders, the head of the far-right PVV (Party for Freedom), pulled his party out, citing differences with his partners over immigration policy.
"No signature for our asylum plans. No adjustment of the coalition agreement. The PVV is leaving the coalition," said Wilders on X, formerly Twitter.
He said he had informed Schoof that all ministers from his party would quit the government.
The PVV entered its first coalition government six months after a surprise victory in the Netherlands' November 2023 parliamentary elections; striking a deal with the conservative People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), the centrist New Social Contract (NSC) and the populist Farmer-Citizen Movement (BBB).

The danger here is that this dirty little right wing fellow may have structured his exit to help reinforce in party's position. The next election could be crucial.
Why do I feel like we are living in a live action role play of "Watchmen"

Denmark Offers to Buy Michigan, Citing "Strategic Clog Manufacturing Potential"
Denmark Offers to Buy Michigan, Citing "Strategic Clog Manufacturing Potential"COPENHAGEN – In an unexpected diplomatic twist, the Danish government has made a formal offer to purchase the U.S. state of Michigan, citing its "enormous strategic value" and "world-class wooden clog production capacity." The move comes in direct response to former U.S. President Donald Trump’s infamous 2019 proposal to buy Greenland, a Danish territory.
“We believe Michigan is an underappreciated gem,” Danish Prime Minister Lars Frederiksen announced in a press conference. “It has pristine lakes, friendly people, and an impressive history of manufacturing and wooden clog craftsmanship. In many ways, it is the Greenland of the Midwest.”
A Generous Offer
The offer, rumoured to be in the range of 250 billion Danish kroner (about $37 billion USD), includes incentives such as lifetime supplies of premium Danish pastries for Michigan residents and exclusive discounts on LEGO sets.
“We want Michiganders to feel at home in Denmark,” Frederiksen said, “so we will also implement a government-backed ‘Hygge Initiative,’ ensuring every household gets a complimentary fireplace and wool blankets.”
The American Response
The U.S. government has yet to formally respond, but early reports indicate mixed reactions. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer released a brief statement saying, “While we appreciate Denmark’s interest, Michigan is not for sale—no matter how many cinnamon buns they throw in.”
Meanwhile, several Michigan residents were reportedly intrigued by the idea, particularly when they heard rumors that Denmark’s social welfare programs might extend to new Danish territories. “Free healthcare and more bicycles? That doesn’t sound so bad,” said one Grand Rapids resident.
Geopolitical Ramifications
International experts are debating the potential consequences of such a purchase. Some analysts suggest that if Denmark acquires Michigan, Sweden might counter with a bid for Minnesota, escalating tensions in the region.
“The Upper Midwest is up for grabs, folks,” said one political commentator. “At this rate, Norway might stake a claim to Wisconsin by year’s end.”
What’s Next?
Denmark has reportedly sent an official delegation to Holland, Michigan, to discuss terms, including how the state’s clog production could be ramped up for export to Dutch tourist markets. Negotiations may also include whether the Michigan Wolverines would have to rebrand as the “Danish Vikings.”
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, when asked about the proposal, responded, “If they want Michigan that badly, they can have it.”
Negotiations are ongoing.
