Donald Trump says, When you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election
When you think of it, he shouldn't even be president one minute longer.
... “It's
some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you
don't win the midterms,” Trump said. He boasted that he had accomplished
so much that “when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an
election.”
TACO Trump tells massacred Iranian anti-government movement that help is on its way, and now it's not
Just like Obama abandoned the Green Movement in 2009.
The Uniparty. You can count on not counting on it.
Trump's government is $602 billion in the hole for the first three months of fiscal year 2026
This rate of deficit spending implies $2.4 trillion added to the national debt for FY2026 when it's over.
It ain't called SUX for nothing

Some of the commenters on this video snarl over the absence of such protests in Minnesota over the $9 billion fraud schemes, not realizing that this street theatre is costing them $75 billion
The ICE agents in this video twice fail to find open doors on their own vehicles to dump their detainees in, the incompetence being a metaphor for the ultimate failure all this sound and fury will turn out to be, when in the end ICE will be lucky to have deported only 2.4 million of the now 25 million illegal aliens Trump says are present in the United States.
The rapidity with which one man has turned the relatively quiet streets of America into a heretofore only imagined police state exposes yet another failure of the American system of government to prevent the abuse of power.
If it were not so, this would not be happening.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson and five others resign in Minnesota as Trump tries to strong-arm the investigation of Renee Good's killing in the direction of victim-blaming
... the office continues to face pressure to treat the investigation of the fatal shooting of a Minneapolis woman by an ICE officer as an assault on a federal officer case. ...
He resigned from the attorney's office along with Harry Jacobs, Melinda Williams, Thomas Calhoun-Lopez, Ruth Schneider and Tom Hollenhurst. ...
100% ground beef averaged a record $6.089 in year one of Trump 2.0, and hit a record high $6.687 in Dec 2025 to celebrate the New Golden Age for them, not for you
Like many other such graphs, the graph for 100% Ground Beef won't show the 2025 average because the government shutdown meant no figure for October in the data.
The average $6.089 in 2025 is for eleven months without October, with October obviously a high figure, too, which means the annual average is no doubt higher than $6.089.
Food at home inflation was 2.4% year over year in Dec 2025, and there has still been no food deflation like there was in 2009 or 2016 to relieve the have-nots of America
