As the Tide Turns, FUX News Flip-Flops Into Democrat Territory

The white aryan morons of Fucks News have enabled Donald Trump. They promoted his lies as facts, invited him to speak his nonsensical verbal diahhreas almost every day. They catered to the MAGA herd of morons peddling Trump's insanity as a necessary pathway to "save America". Not only did they kiss the ring as the tyrant was on his way up, but they also marketed his deeply unAmerican brand as "the exclusive American Way". They excessively covered every single bit of bad news about immigrants such that only crimes committed by immigrants deserved Angel Moms, but totally ignored the far greater crimes committed at alarming rates by white aryan Americans.

But now that the tyrant has gone full-blown demented, now that he has proven his unworthyness and his deception, and now that the American people are finally realizing they elected a creep, a liar, a greedy moneybagger, a narcissistic idiot, and a subordinate to the Zionist rulers of America, Fucks News has in recent weeks began a makeover of sorts: They challenge the Great Moron with tough questions, and he replies to them with venom laden with insults against their own reporters. Megyn Kelley, one of the top bimbo arses at Fucks News just discovered - after twenty years of evidence she chose to ignore - that Donald Dumb "is not a moral man". After twenty years? That is how long it took this bieatch to understand him as the criminal con man?

So much so that Jeanine Pirro, the Lebanese-American Semitic (not Aryan) political wench of Donald Dumb, is now claiming that Fucks News was better under Obama than it is under Trump. She says, "There’s no respect for the office [of President]" without explaining that it is Trump's own vulgarities and disrespect for reporters and journalists that have prompted the latter to become impatient with a demented insane weasel as president.

Jeanine Pirro Suggests Obama-Era Fox News Was More Respectful Than ‘Unhinged’ Media Under Trump

Jeanine Pirro didn’t hold back when commenting on the media currently covering Donald Trump’s second term, blasting today’s journalists as “unhinged.”

The former Fox News host, who currently serves as the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, sounded off on the press corps and other members of the media during her Thursday appearance on Bill O’Reilly’s “We’ll Do It Live!” podcast.

After O’Reilly lamented that most of modern media is “anti-Trump,” he reiterated his warning around the White House Correspondents Dinner. “I don’t want the office of the presidency attacked at a stupid dinner,” he said, garnering approval from Pirro.

“I appreciate that,” she responded. “These these people are unhinged. There’s no respect for the office.”

As Pirro went on, she reflected on the coverage Fox News did for former President Barack Obama during his tenure in the White House.

“I mean, the way we treated President Obama was — we disagreed with him, but we didn’t create chaos,” she said. “They disagree with us and they create chaos, violence and all kinds of problems.”

However, when asked if the alleged “chaos” impacted her job at all, Pirro responded: “No. And my job, though, Bill, is to turn that office around from a neglected office.” Watch her comments below.

Fox News, where Pirro worked for over 15 years, infamously had an adversarial relationship with Obama and his White House, with the network criticizing everything from the former president’s policies to his tan suit.

In response, Anita Dunn, the White House communications director at the time, accused Fox News of operating “as either the research arm or the communications arm of the Republican party.”

Additionally, Obama himself chimed in with, “If media is operating basically as a talk radio format, then that’s one thing, and if it’s operating as a news outlet, then that’s another.”

Yet, this drama pales in comparison to the current tension between the Trump administration and the media. Not only has Trump and his staffers blasted legacy media as “fake news,” the president has also sued a number of media outlets, including The New York Times, the BBC and the Des Moines Register.

He’s also faced backlash for his repeated verbal attacks against female reporters, slinging insults like “nasty,” “piggy,” “terrible,” “ugly” and “incapable” in their direction.

Last year, White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson defended that “President Trump has never been politically correct, never holds back, and in large part, the American people re-elected him for his transparency.”

She added: “This has nothing to do with gender – it has everything to do with the fact that the President’s and the public’s trust in the media is at all time lows.”


Dwindling Weapons Stocks Forcing US to Cancel Weapons Sales to Allies

 

Hegseth Just Sent an Alarming Message to the Rest of the World
Fred Kaplan
Fri, April 24, 2026 




Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth called Estonia’s defense minister on Monday with some bad news: Because of its own needs in the war with Iran, the Pentagon would have to delay delivery of six units of a high-tech weapons system that Estonia had contracted to buy from the United States government.

The weapon is the Army’s High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, each of which can fire six rockets or one missile at ranges of up to 185 miles. The United States had signed the contract to sell these weapons back in 2022, after they’d proved their worth in Ukraine. The first launchers were delivered last year, with the U.S. Embassy in Tallinn calling the purchase “one of the most significant capability upgrades in Estonian military history.”

But now, according to a story in Stars and Stripes, Hegseth informed his Estonian counterpart that delivery of the munitions—the rockets and missiles that fit into the launchers—will be delayed at least until the war with Iran is over, perhaps for longer still.

The implications of the delay are staggering on several levels.

First, the Pentagon’s civilian leader is telling a NATO ally—a tiny front-line nation whose military budget totals 5.4 percent of its GDP—that its defense needs to take a back seat to a war instigated by President Donald Trump, whose purpose has never been explained (in part because it has no real purpose).

Second, other allies, many of whom have been buying American-made weapons for decades, can infer from this slap in the face that they should start looking elsewhere, because the U.S. government cannot be relied on to keep its word—even when codified in a legal contract.

This is already beginning to happen. Largely as a result of Trump’s open indifference or hostility to NATO, the leaders of Britain, Canada, France, and Germany have been talking for a while about buying each other’s weapons rather than continuing to rely heavily on the United States.

Now even Estonia, one of America’s most loyal allies, is moving away. “This delay will not help out deterrence very much,” Stars and Stripes quotes Estonia’s defense minister, Hanno Pevkur, as saying. If the delay goes on much longer, Pevkur adds, “we would certainly have to review our decisions” about where to go shopping for armaments.

This holds enormous economic, as well as geopolitical, consequences. U.S. arms sales to foreign countries last year totaled $331.18 billion. In many cases, foreign sales offset a large share of the costs that the U.S. armed services incur in buying the weapons for their own arsenals.

Hegseth’s call highlights another gasp-worthy consequence of the war: the extent to which a mere 39-day bombing campaign against Iran—a country that is far from a major military power—has depleted America’s stocks of crucial weapons.

According to a study released this week by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the U.S. military used up more than half of its pre-war inventory for four of the seven types of weapons that it calls “key munitions” for fighting a war—and it will take, in some cases, more than four years for the stockpile to be replenished.

Though the study was released a few days before news reports of Hegseth’s phone call to Estonia, it helps explain the secretary’s panic. A key example cited in the study is the Precision Strike Missile, the main munition of the HIMARS rocket system that Hegseth held back from delivery to our NATO ally. The U.S. military had 90 of these missiles before Trump started bombing Iran. During the five and a half weeks of war, it fired off 40 to 70 of them. (The study’s estimate is based on published sources; hence the imprecise range.) The study concludes it will take 46 months—nearly four years—for manufacturers to refill the U.S. inventory.

Similarly, the U.S. had 360 Terminal High Altitude Area Defense systems before the war started. In shooting down Iran’s ballistic missiles, U.S. service members fired off somewhere between 190 and 290—52 to 80 percent—of them. Rebuilding those stockpiles should take 53 months.

The military used between 1,060 and 1,430—between 45 and 61 percent—of its 2,330 Patriot air-defense missiles, which will take 42 months to replace.

In other, slightly less extreme cases, the military fired more than 1,000 of its 3,100 Tomahawk cruise missiles, more than 1,000 of its 4,400 armor-piercing Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles, between 130 and 250 of its 410 SM-3 air-defense missiles, and between 190 and 370 of its 1,160 SM-6s. The Tomahawks will take 47 months to replace, the SM-6s will take 53 months, and the SM-3s will take 64 months.

The study notes that the situation is not quite as dire as the numbers make it seem. Some of these weapons can be replaced by far cheaper, slightly less capable systems that the U.S. possesses in large quantity. However, for a few of the weapons—the Patriots, THAADs, and SM missiles, which are adept at shooting down short-to-medium-range ballistic missiles—there are no good substitutes.

It’s breathtaking to examine these numbers. The U.S. military budgets since 2020 have added up to more than $5 trillion. Yet its arsenal is facing such drastic shortfalls in some of its most critical weapons! How could this be?

A few lessons can be learned from this grim tale.

First, we should have been buying—and now need to buy—many more of these basic munitions.

Second, the Pentagon needs to find companies that, in lightning-fast contracts, can build weapons of this sort—artillery rockets, medium-range missiles, and air-defense weapons—for much, much lower prices. (It’s crazy to fire multimillion-dollar air-defense missiles at drones costing a few thousand dollars.)

Deconstructing Trump's Roy Cohn Tactics: Every Accusation is a Confession!

It's very easy to deconstruct Trump. Just invoke the lessons that Trump's mentor Roy Cohn taught him and you'll understand exactly why Trump says and does things.

In this case, Trump is the criminal. Trump is the traitor. Trump is the seditious anarchist. Trump is the pedophile (not some Democrat cabal). Trump is the liar. Trump is the leader of a lunatic radical right-wing conspiracy. Trump is the one who doesn't give a rat's ass about morals or the Christian religion. Trump (and he said it many time) knows he caters to a stupid imbecile MAGA base to whom he can lie at will and they will believe him. 

Just reverse everything he says and does and turn it back to him, and you'll understand the insidious hypocrite creep that this man is. Next time you read one of his stupidly nasty posts, simply accept that whatever he says about his enemies, he is projecting his one crimes onto them. That's the gist of Roy Cohn's mentorship of this criminal ass-o-e.

This reminds me of George Costanza in one of the Seinfeld episodes in which he decides to do everything opposite to what he actually believes or normally does. And it worked for George, just as it seems to be working for the delirious marsupial lemur in the Wout House because so many Americans are just as dumb and ugly as he is to believe him.

By the way, whatever happened to the Epstein Files?

Trump resurrects calls to arrest Barack Obama, accuses him and others of ‘treason’ in late-night posts

“This isn’t just false; it’s reckless,” former DOJ official Anthony Coley tells theGrio after President Trump’s Truth Social posting spree.

President Donald Trump has resurrected his public rebuke of former President Barack Obama, accusing his predecessor of “treason” and calling for his arrest.

In a series of late-night Truth Social posts, the ever mercurial president renewed scrutiny of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)’s criminal investigation of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russia’s election interference.

President Trump reposted a Newsmax segment of former Trump campaign advisory board member Jason Meister calling out America’s first Black president as a “criminal.”

“I hate to say this, but President Barack Obama…there’s now incontrovertible evidence that he was the spearhead of a seditious conspiracy to subvert the will of the American people and overthrow the United States government back in 2016,” said Meister. “We must hold every single one of these criminals accountable.”

Trump shared another post of a 2020 Fox News segment reporting about declassified notes from former Obama Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Brennan, who reportedly briefed President Obama in 2016 on then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s intent to “vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service.”

The post was a re-share from an account called “The SCIF,” which captioned, “Hillary Clinton funded, approved, and created Steele Dossier, Barack Obama called the shots, and Brennan’s CIA did the dirty work. The evidence is clear, TREASON was committed, and now they must pay or they will do it again.”

Another post was a re-share of an X post that read, “I hope they arrest you before your grand opening of your war bunker in southside Chicago,” referring to President Obama’s June 19 opening of the Obama Presidential Center.

The 2016 Trump-Russia investigation, like Trump’s conspiracy that his 2020 election loss was “rigged” against him, has been a political obsession for the president.

In July 2025, Trump reignited calls for the arrest of Obama and former Obama officials, including former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, whom Trump defeated in the 2016 election. The push came after Trump’s loyalist, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, released declassified documents revealing communications within the Obama administration. Memos showed that Obama requested an assessment of Russian interference in the 2016 election and the foreign adversary’s connections to the Trump campaign.

A U.S. president being briefed about national and foreign intelligence or requesting more information is not a crime, and despite DNI Gabbard claiming she made a criminal referral to the DOJ, no indictments have been made against President Obama or any former Obama official.

It is well-documented that several former Trump campaign staff engaged in communications with Russian officials, including Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. and son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Additionally, intelligence reports revealed that Russia engaged in a sophisticated interference campaign that included extracting voter registration data in at least two states, and online interference campaigns—including a troll farm targeting Black voters. Analysis of Russia’s interference campaign concluded that it was an effective voter suppression tool.

A DOJ special counsel investigation of the 2016 Russia interference campaign, led by former FBI Director Robert Mueller, concluded that there was not enough evidence to charge any Trump official for conspiring with Russia. However, Mueller made clear his report did not absolve Trump of possible obstruction. His 448-page report outlines 10 potential instances of obstruction of justice committed by Trump, including the firing of former FBI Director James Comey, who was leading an investigation of Russia and the Trump campaign.

Trump has long griped about the Russia investigation and the political damage that came with it, calling it a “witch hunt” orchestrated by Democrats who simply did not want to see him elected president.

“This isn’t just false; it’s reckless. Repeating debunked conspiracy theories about a former president doesn’t make them true, and it drags the country deeper into division,” political analyst and former Biden DOJ official Anthony Coley tells theGrio. “The country would be much better served by a president focused on lowering costs and solving real problems.”

Following last year’s DNI report that sought to implicate him in criminal activity, a spokesperson for President Obama issued a rare statement, calling the claims “outrageous.”

“Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response,” the statement said. “These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.”

Thanks to RFK Jr and other MAGA "Health" Goons, Measles is Spreading in US

The smartass anti-vaccine morons that Donald Dumb has planted at the CDC and other national health institutions are the direct cause of vaccine skpeticism among the MAGA morons that populate the southern and western United States. These lovers of Donald Dumb stopped vaccinating their children, and now Measles is spreading fast across the south and southwest. It has also been reported in New Jersey for the first time [https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/n-j-reports-first-measles-212049874.html]

Newer testing methods suggest significant silent spread of measles in the US, threatening elimination

Fri, April 24, 2026

Measles crept into Utah and Arizona in June, with reports trickling into local health departments of patients coming to doctors and saying their children had just recovered from full-body rashes, and parents telling pediatricians that their whole family had just recovered from measles.

But because patients would decline testing, there were no official cases in the outbreak until August 8, when the Mojave County, Arizona, Department of Public health received a report about a 10-year-old boy who lived in a tightly knit community that spans the border of northern Arizona and southern Utah.

That outbreak has grown to more than 600 reported cases and is now the most active in the US. The Arizona-Utah cases will almost certainly be important to determining whether the US has lost its measles elimination status, meaning it’s stopped the routine transmission of the virus within its borders for over a year. The meeting to make that determination is now set for November.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tasked one of its disease detectives with using molecular evidence – clues buried deep in the genomes of the measles viruses that infected patients – to learn more about when the outbreak really started and how large it actually is.

The number of reported measles cases in the US jumped last year to 2,267, the highest total in more than three decades. Transmission has not slowed, with cases topping 1,700 in just the first four months of this year as the virus spreads through communities that have turned away from vaccination.

Tracing the origins of an outbreak

Almost as soon as the Utah outbreak was confirmed, health officials suspected that the true number of patients was bigger than they knew.

Most disease outbreaks are undercounted because doctors may miss diagnoses of unfamiliar diseases and patients may not seek medical care for religious or cultural reasons. Both factors seemed to be at play in this outbreak.

Measles has not circulated widely in the US in 30 years, so many doctors have never seen a case. Additionally, the community where measles is spreading has been the home of a sect of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a group that had a charismatic leader named Warren Jeffs who sowed distrust in vaccines.

The measles vaccine is highly effective. Two doses prevent disease roughly 97% of the time. Because the virus is so contagious, lingering in air for up to two hours after a person leaves the room, high vaccination coverage in an area, more than 95%, is needed to stop it from spreading. But misinformation campaigns and a lack of trust in public health officials have caused population-level protection against the virus to plummet.

Public health departments working to combat the outbreak wondered whether it might be possible to estimate when it really started, as well as its true size, by looking at how the genome of the virus had changed over time, according to Dr. Annie Wang, an Epidemic Intelligence Service officer who was assigned to Arizona’s Pima County Health Department during the outbreak.

EIS officers are a group of highly trained public health specialists who are often assigned to state and local public health departments to help with outbreak investigations. Wang presented their investigation into the outbreak Tuesday during the CDC’s annual EIS conference.

This technique for tracing the origins of an outbreak relies on knowing how quickly viruses develop mutations, or changes, in their genetic material as they pass from person to person. The measles virus is relatively stable and changes very little during transmission. But even this relatively steady virus does develop small changes as it circulates; they just take extra effort to find.

Instead of studying the small part of the measles genome that’s usually used to identify what strain it is, Wang explained, she and her colleagues needed to sequence the entire genome of the virus, or its complete set of blueprints. They did this for viruses sampled from 165 patients.

They were able to use that information to determine, essentially, the birthdate of the virus that gave rise to the Arizona and Utah outbreak, Wang said.

Those early infections probably started at least six weeks – and maybe as many as 14 months – before the 10-year-old boy was diagnosed, she said, though she added that they couldn’t pinpoint the geographic location of the earliest case because they used only viruses sampled in the Utah and Arizona outbreak. There were also sizable measles outbreaks in West Texas and South Carolina last year, as well as in Mexico and Canada.

If the location of that first infection is in the US, however, the research could lend significant weight to the idea that measles has been continually transmitting in the country for longer than a year, the threshold for determining elimination.

Wang and her team also estimated that the Arizona/Utah outbreak has been at least 6.5 times larger than the number of known cases.

More evidence for silent spread

There are other clues that much of the spread of measles in the US is going unreported, too.

A separate EIS investigation of measles in wastewater from Oregon found that the virus was detected 100 times between October and February, in 23 of 24 monitored counties. Oregon had six reported cases of measles during that time, but all of these were outside the areas that were being monitored for the virus.

“The number and spread of detection suggests measles is more widespread than the six reported cases that we have,” Dr. Jeffrey Tamucci, an EIS officer assigned to the Oregon Public Health Authority, said in a conference presentation.

“It begs the question, why are there missing clinical cases? Is it a sick person that does not seek care? A patient being diagnosed with other illnesses? Providers not testing those with clinically compatible symptoms? Or something else?” Tamucci said. “We don’t know for sure. We’re still trying to figure that out.”

Elimination status at risk

The CDC is at work on a nationwide analysis, similar to the one done in Arizona and Utah, looking at genomic data, said Dr. Noel Brewer, a distinguished professor of public health at the University of North Carolina.

“The data from states is useful but has important limitations that include not characterizing the connection to outbreaks in other states,” Brewer said, adding that he was aware of the data from Arizona and Utah. Another state is also doing a genomic analysis, he said.

Brewer chairs the committee that will certify the CDC’s report and give its opinion on measles elimination status to the Pan American Health Organization, or PAHO, which will make the ultimate determination this fall. The committee was convened by the nonprofit Task Force for Global Health and funded by the CDC.

Brewer expects the CDC’s report by the end of June and expects that the data will be convincing and definitive.

“Whether or not forensic epidemiology unearths a smoking gun linking the cases, measles is now widely present across the US and showing no signs of ending anytime soon,” he said.

In early April, CDC scientists published the first large batch of data from advanced genetic sequencing of roughly 1,000 measles viruses that were circulating in the US last year. The agency will use that information to try to determine whether the measles outbreaks in Texas, Arizona and Utah, as well as the outbreaks in South Carolina, Florida and Washington, are linked or the result of separate introductions from outside the US.

“Looking at the larger dataset from the US, Canada, and elsewhere, it’s pretty clear that what is happening in Utah and Arizona is closely connected to prior outbreaks in the US with clear links to e.g., Texas, New Mexico, and other places,” said Dr. Kristian Andersen, an evolutionary biologist at the Scripps Research Institute who is not involved in the effort to analyze the sequences but is closely following it.

“The larger outbreak in South Carolina, Washington and other places sit on a separate clade, but is also clearly caused by endemic transmission within the US (and Canada) and not from ‘immigration’ or other people traveling into the country as we have heard from HHS officials,” Andersen said in an email.

Trump Wants to Take Over the Falkland-Malvinas Islands

The Falkland Islands are off the coast of Argentina, which refers to them as the Malvinas Islands. They were stolen from Argentina by the crooks of the colonial British Empire, whose descendants refuse to hand them back to Argentina. Margaret Thatcher, the former extremist right-wing prime minister of England went to war with Argentina to recover the Falkland Islands when Argentina seized them back in the early 1980s.

But now that Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain, like all other democracies, refused to help the insane old geezer Donald Dumb in his Zionist-prodded war on Iran, the US is threatening to seize the Falkland Islands from Britain as punishment. When you have a mindless idiot at the helm in the superpower of our time, no one should be surprised if Keir Starmer pulls a Margaret-Thatcher war against the US to recover the islands, if the US decides to take them over. And that is a problem between the "special" allies that the the US and the UK keep bragging about.

LONDON, April 24 (Reuters) - The sovereignty of the Falkland Islands rests with Britain, a spokesperson for Prime Minister ‌Keir Starmer said on Friday after an internal Pentagon ‌email suggested reviewing the U.S. position on the Falklands as punishment for Britain's ​stance on the Iran war.

"We could not be clearer about the UK's position on the Falkland Islands. It is long standing, it is unchanged," the spokesperson told reporters.

"Sovereignty rests with the UK ‌and the islands' right ⁠to self-determination is paramount. It's been our consistent position and will remain the case," the spokesperson ⁠said, adding that Britain had expressed that position "clearly and consistently to successive U.S. administrations".

The Pentagon email outlined options for the United States ​to punish ​NATO allies it believes failed ​to support U.S. operations ‌in the war with Iran, including considering reassessing U.S. diplomatic support for longstanding European "imperial possessions," such as the Falkland Islands near Argentina.

Britain and Argentina fought a brief war in 1982 over the islands after Argentina made a failed bid to take them. ‌Some 650 Argentine and 255 British ​service personnel died before Argentina surrendered.

Asked ​if Starmer thought this ​was an attempt by the U.S. to put ‌pressure on him to join the ​Iran war, ​his spokesperson said: "He has spoken about that and he has also spoken about how that pressure does not affect ​him, and he will ‌always act in the national interest, and that will ​always remain the case."

Crumbling "Turning Point USA": A Harbinger of MAGA Mega-Debacle

[Turning Point USA's name has been replaced with the more appropriate "Turning Stomach USA"] 

Turning Stomach USA campus moron quits after Kerika Irk failed to show up. This organization of moronic MAGA juveniles is already on its way to extinction. Turning Stomach USA (TSUSA) was founded on the basis of imbecile Charlie Kirk's "discovery" that you can convince sane and decent people that racism is good and acceptable if only you express it with good manners and politeness, something the Nazis were very good at. 

As hypocrisy and bigotry are easily ferreted out of Trump's MAGA morons (they can't help themselves), it takes no time before such a vapid and stupidly American idea (e.g. you can be happy if only you smile and pretend to be happy... positive thinking bullshit) to disintegrate. Which is happening before our eyes. The MAGA morons of the backward state of Georgia (where inbreeding among the white trash settlers and slave owners has led to a general decline in mental acuity and a derangement in uttering speech known as spluttering: The tongue of the average Georgian speaker is so protruding out of the vocal orifice that every outgoing syllable is escorted with 1.27 Oz. of saliva. Canadian visitors to Georgia: beware.

The self-declared MAGA "president" of the University of Georgia’s Turning Stomach USA chapter is quitting. This tragedy is taking place after the hillbilly Vice President and Donald Dumb's hand puppet J.D. Vance, visited the Georgia chapter and was met with virtually no audience to applaud his platitudes. Well, he's a Catholic, a bad one to be sure, but the Evangelical numskulls of the MAGA cult have long hated Catholics - Papists as they call them - even though Vance chose to wage a public war with the POpe on matters of theology. You see, you can be a DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) hillbilly recruit at a liberal Yankee campus like Yale, as a dumb midwesterner and Catholic, you have no option in MAGA but kiss the ass of the Evangelical moron at the helm. Which explains why many of the tiny idiots of Turning Stomach USA did not show up to listen to Dunce Vance's speech. They may also be beginning to smell the decomposition gases emanating from the MAGA corpse and, as their brains are still developing, they may want to try other pastures.

To make things worse, the national president of Turning Stomach USA, Her Ecellency the Head Bimbo, the supreme Mullatah of the organization, Kerika Irk did not show up. There were rumors for a while that Kerika and JD were romancing the stone, as JD's forced love for, and marriage with, a dark-skinned Hindu immigrant (all three disqualifying criteria for the MAGA racists) did not sit well with the mentally-challenged xenophobes of MAGA and Turning Stomach USA, especially that she was pressured to convert to the Evangelical Cult but declined. In line with the traditional MAGA family values of corruption, adultery, fornication on the side, gun-loving alcoholism, cronyism and nepotism, the lady inherited her position from her late husband, affectionately known as Charlie. But given his own deficiencies in the realm of the intellectual, she could not have been better than him.

According to Caroline Mattox, the U. of Georgia chapter’s president, joining TPUSA had been “a dream” of hers, but that after its founder, Charlie Kirk, died last year, the right-wing organization’s mission had become dishonest. DISHONEST. Hear the truth from the mouths of babes. That is still a mild description of an organization molded on a convicted felon dumb jerk by the name of Donald Dumb. Mattox went on to say that that after Vance’s visit, it had become “abundantly clear” to her that “TPUSA’s mission and purpose have been lost along the way.” Good riddance. Thank you Caroline.

“It became evident to me that the organization’s current direction no longer aligns with the principles upon which it was founded... and I have significant concerns about its messaging and current trajectory... In light of this, I am resigning from my position as president of the Turning [Stomach] USA chapter at the University of Georgia. While I am grateful for the experiences, lessons, and people this chapter has brought me, I can no longer, in good conscience, continue to represent an organization that I believe has strayed so far from its original purpose and principles." Wow. 

Obviously, to explain the train wreck that TSUSA is going through, a good Donald Dumb tactic is to reject responsibility and dump it on your opponents. Turning Stomach USA is claimg that it was left-wing infiltrators who scuttled the event by reserving tickets, which somehow resulted in hardly anyone bothering to show up. Yup, it is always that scarecrow, the lunatic left, that can depended upon to take the blame for any gastroenteritis that gives MAGA the runs.

Other cancerous TSUSA growths at various universities and colleges are also self-eradicating as the immune system of the nation has built up enough antibodies, killer T-cells, macrophages and other democracy-restoration disease-fighting tools to begin dismantling the MAGA evil empire.

For example, the TSUSA chapter at the University of Arkansas (another backward southern state) also disbanded after Kerika visited it last month. She must be carrying a weakening mutant of the virus that is easy to dislodge. 

At the most recent stop on the tour to Baylor University in 'Wacko', Texas, all media were denied access to the event. TPUSA said the press restrictions were due to the venue they rented, but Baylor said it was clear about expectations with TPUSA from the beginning.

Meanwhile, Baylor University in 'Wacko', Texas, also imposed restrictions on public and media access to a Turning Stomach USA event there, which led to turning away 4,500 stupid ticket holders. The X account of The Baylor Lariat, the campus newspaper, reported that there would be no press access to the event, a decision it said had been taken “in the best interest of our students.”

Trump's "new deal" wih Iran Might be Just Like Obama's

https://cdn.vectorstock.com/i/500p/68/26/donald-trump-and-barack-obama-cartoon-vector-15616826.jpg 

The Obama ghost still haunts the Great White Moron.

The only way for him to outdo Obama in a deal with Iran is to either nuke Iran (a madness the senile madman might well do) or invade the country (which will be the end of any legacy he thinks he might leave behind). He's stuck between two very bad outcomes for him. But as Bolton says below, "he wants out... I think it [deal with Iran] will be unsatisfactory but he will declare victory and hope he can get away with it", just he has pulled a Roy Cohn on everything in his political life: If you lie long enough, you will end up believing your own lies.

Bolton: Trump ‘afraid’ of making bad Iran deal ‘because he’ll look like’ Obama

Ryan Mancini

Former White House national security adviser John Bolton on Monday accused President Trump of being “afraid” of making a bad deal with Iran as the end of the two-week ceasefire approaches “because he’ll look like” former President Obama.

Bolton told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins that Trump is “really desperate to get out” of the conflict with Iran. The former Trump administration adviser said the president is worried about the conflict’s impact on energy prices, which have skyrocketed due to Iran cutting off the Strait of Hormuz to export vessels since the conflict began, and its political impact.

“But he‘s afraid of not making a deal because things will continue and he‘s afraid of making a bad deal because he‘ll look like Barack Obama,” Bolton said. “And that can lead to, uh, mood swings, shall we say?”

This is an apparent reference to the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which was negotiated under former President Obama. The deal required the Islamic Republic to dismantle its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Trump pulled the U.S. out of the deal during his first term in 2018.

Bolton expects that the Iranian government will “really feel they’ve got the upper hand” if Trump extends the ceasefire deadline, which the former Trump adviser called a “mistake.” He argued that the Trump administration should “punish” Iran militarily to avoid allowing it to close the Strait of Hormuz.

“Well, I think the dominant mood for Trump is he wants out and he will find a way out,” Bolton said. “I think it will be unsatisfactory but he will declare victory and hope he can get away with it. That’s what I fear.”

He previously said on Sunday that he expects another extension to the “two-week breather,” adding that it gave Iran time “to recover, regroup, get ready for the next phase of the war. We never should have let up on them.”

Vice President Vance, U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner are expected to fly to Islamabad, Pakistan, to hold the second round of talks with Iranian negotiators before the deadline. Iran, however, stated that it has “no plans for the next round” of negotiations, citing the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.

Both sides have made new threats to attack and fight back if threatened. Trump told the New York Post that the U.S. is “loading up the ships with the best weapons ever made, even at a higher level than we use to do a complete decimation.”

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Qalibaf on Monday accused Trump of violating the ceasefire with the blockade in the strait. He claimed that Trump “seeks to turn this negotiating table… into a table of surrender or to justify renewed warmongering.”

“We do not accept negotiations under the shadow of threats, and in the past two weeks, we have prepared to reveal new cards on the battlefield,” Qalibaf wrote on the social platform X.

When the S-it Hits the Fan, Pimp Trump's Arab Gulf Girls will Drop Dollar for Yuan

Trump's imbecilic policies, particularly the one that Zionists poked his ass with a cattle prod to push him into, are hurting the US far more than any other Quixotic windmill he says he is fighting.
================================================


UAE officials reportedly warned they may be forced to use yuan or other currencies if they run low on dollars amid the Iran war
Jason Ma
Mon, April 20, 2026 

The United Arab Emirates apparently dropped a hint the dollar’s dominance isn’t assured in the global oil trade if fallout from the Iran war gets worse.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the UAE’s central bank chief raised the idea of a currency-swap line with Treasury Department and Federal Reserve officials during meetings in Washington, D.C., last week.

To be sure, the UAE has plenty of money, including $270 billion in foreign-exchange reserves and trillions of dollars across its sovereign wealth funds.

But while the UAE isn’t in a crisis, Iran has damaged its energy infrastructure and has blocked oil exports by closing off the Strait of Hormuz, weighing on dollar-denominated revenue.

If the Iran war triggers a deeper economic downturn, a swap line with the U.S. would provide the UAE’s central bank with a cheap supply of dollars that could back the dirham, which is pegged to the greenback, or beef up foreign-exchange reserves in the event liquidity runs low, the report said.

UAE officials also pointed out the U.S. started the Iran war and said they may be forced to use China’s yuan or other currencies for oil transactions if the availability of dollars gets tight, sources told the Journal.

The UAE’s central bank didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Any pivot away from the dollar by a top oil producer would represent a major threat to the currency’s supremacy. Saudi Arabia’s decision in 1974 to price its exports in dollars helped establish the dollar as the standard across the global oil trade.

And because oil is a core input to manufacturing and transport, supply chains elsewhere dollarized, reinforcing the greenback’s dominance in payments.

But the Iran war could worsen some cracks that had already been forming in the so-called petrodollar regime, analysts at Deutsche Bank warned last month.

“Damage to Gulf economies could encourage an unwind in their foreign asset savings,” they said. “In this context, reports that the passage for ships through the Strait of Hormuz may be granted in exchange for oil payments in yuan should be closely followed. The conflict could be remembered as a key catalyst for erosion in petrodollar dominance, and the beginnings of the petroyuan.”

Any loss of the dollar’s “exorbitant privilege” would also ripple through other areas of global finance, including the bond market. Thanks to the dollar’s status as the world’s reserve currency, the federal government has long been able to issue debt at rates lower than investors would otherwise allow.

But Dan Alamariu, chief geopolitical strategist at Alpine Macro, isn’t buying predictions of a U.S. decline. In a note earlier this month, he acknowledged if Iran’s regime is left standing while retaining some control over the strait, it would represent a “strategic setback” for the U.S. and humiliation for President Donald Trump.

But the Gulf Cooperation Council, which includes the UAE and Saudi Arabia, has even more reason now to maintain close ties with the U.S., given China’s links with Iran, Alamariu added.

“The idea of a petroyuan or petroeuro replacement remains far-fetched,” he said.

Even if the petrodollar weakens, dollar dominance still rests on other factors that other currencies can’t match, according to Paul Blustein, a scholar with the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

Those include the depth, breadth, and liquidity of U.S. financial markets as well as the freedom to move money across U.S. borders virtually unimpeded, he wrote in a Fortune op-ed last month.

“It accounts for well over half of foreign currency reserves held by central banks, and a similar share of export invoices for cross-border trade, as well as international bank loans and bond issuance,” Blustein explained. “Network effects entrench its status; everybody has an incentive to use the dollar because so many others do.”

Muslim American Immigrant Saves Child Kidnapped by US-Born Christian Rapist

This is a piece of news that Trump's FUCKs-NEWS won't talk about.

Abohatem, the girl's savior, will now be hunted down by ICE.

Detroit gas station clerk saved teenage girl from man after she mouthed 'help' to him

Updated Mon, April 20, 2026

The young Yemeni immigrant manning the cash register at a Sunoco gas station in Detroit struggles at time with his English, but police say he immediately understood when the 16-year-old girl seeking to buy cigarettes silently mouthed the word “help.”

Now Abdulrahman Abohatem is being hailed as a hero for saving that teenager from a suspected rapist who allegedly abducted her at gunpoint last week. And the local Yemeni-American business community is showing its appreciation by raising money to help him defray the costs of his upcoming wedding.

“We are all very proud of him,” said Mohammed Alsanai, principal of the Frontier International Academy in Hamtramck, which is where the teenager attends school.

Alsanai on Monday said the school recently hosted a ceremony where Abohatem was awarded a “Knight Medal” for his quick-thinking response.

Abohatem told local reporters that being able to help a teenager in danger was reward enough.

“I feel good when you save somebody,” he told the ABC News affiliate WXYZ-TV. “Sixteen years old — she is a child.”

The suspect, 48-year-old Donald James Joseph Arthur Fields of Hamtramck, has been charged with two counts of criminal sexual conduct first degree, kidnapping, one count of felonious assault, three counts of felony firearm and one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm, according to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office.

Fields is being held without bond in the Wayne County Jail, Hamtramck Police Chief Hussein Farhat said after Fields was arrested last Monday, the day of the incident.

The suspect is “a criminal who had a history of rape charges, and we will make sure he gets what he deserves,” Hamtramck Mayor Adam Alharbi said after Fields' arrest.

Fields, according to available records, was charged in February 2024 by authorities in Michigan with criminal sexual conduct/second-degree assault.

There are also two arrests on his rap sheet for first-degree home invasion in Michigan.

The Hamtramck Police Department did not immediately respond to an inquiry seeking more details about Fields' previous arrests.

The 16-year-old was waiting for a bus to school when Fields forced her at gunpoint into his van and drove away, police said. But this did not go unnoticed. Another female student who saw what happened immediately called 911.

While police were responding to the reported kidnapping, Fields allegedly assaulted the teenager in his van and then drove with her to the gas station across the city line in Detroit.

Meanwhile, officers arriving at the school encountered several students who were already using their cellphones to track the missing girl through a social media app, police said and Alsanai confirmed.

“The whole room froze when we realized we knew where she was,” the principal said.

Armed with that information, police headed for the Sunoco, as well.

By then, Fields and the teenager were already inside the gas station’s convenience store.

When the suspect told the 16-year-old girl to pay for the cigarettes, Abohatem told WXYZ-TV he was immediately suspicious.

“I stop and go, 'There’s something wrong,'” he said. “And she mouthed talked to me, like with no sound, ‘Help.'”

Abohatem said he stepped out from behind the store’s protective glass and stepped in between Fields and the teenager.

“I go out, I kick him out,” Abohatem said of the suspect. “I ask the girl, ‘Go behind me.'”

Fields quickly fled and was heading back to his van with Abohatem hot on his heels when Hamtramck police officers arrived and took the suspect into custody.

“I see the police outside. I point to him. I go, ‘That’s the guy,'” Abohatem said.

Police quickly handcuffed Fields and then confiscated his van and a handgun.

Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said the teenager was the victim of a seemingly random attack and praised her for keeping her cool even after she was assaulted.

“Our young survivor in this case was simply walking in broad daylight when she was viciously attacked and sexually assaulted,” Worthy said in a statement. “Despite what she had just gone through, her quick thinking and mental toughness saved her life. We cannot reverse what happened to her, but we can work hard to bring justice to her. “

Sound Opinion on What Trump's Next Step Should be



Resignation is Trump’s last chance at redemption
William S. Becker, opinion contributor
Mon, April 20, 2026



Donald Trump’s presidency is a morality lesson. He is a living example of what happens when a man is given power that far exceeds his character. It is time for America to acknowledge the lesson and move on.

Trump is engaged in a constant struggle for respect, seeking affirmation to maintain his facade of respectability. In reality, he seems to have starved his soul in pursuit of material wealth, power and fame.

This facade is as unstable as a Jenga tower. Trump fears that someone will pull out the piece that makes it topple, so he relentlessly punishes anyone who might try. 

The real estate mogul constructs monuments not to great Americans or moments in history, but to himself. They include resorts, hotels, golf clubs and skyscrapers. Now, they include a Trump ballroom at the White House and a prospective Arc de Trump imposing itself on the Lincoln Memorial. His portrait hangs throughout the capital like Caesar’s adorned Rome. Soon, Trump’s likeness will appear on U.S. currency and commemorative gold coins.

He doesn’t understand, or perhaps will not admit, that he is memorializing a decade in which he caused decay, division, degradation, degeneration and disgrace. Once Trump leaves office, the plaques on his monuments will explain how the government failed America and nearly allowed the world’s continuing democracy to slip away.

Trump has imposed his will on the nation’s cultural institutions, dictating what the Smithsonian museums should exhibit and what the renamed Donald J. Trump-John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts should host. Once he is gone, a permanent exhibit at the National Museum of American History should teach schoolchildren how easily tyrants can mislead the people and fill the void left by a passive citizenry.

The Trump decade should be remembered as a period when a president commandeered every news cycle by creating fresh controversies. As his power crumbled, he escalated his outrages so that each one distracted national attention from the last.

Many theorize that he even launched a war to divert persistent attention from the most sordid scandal in American history: the Epstein affair. His badly conceived attack has so far cost the lives of 15 U.S. soldiers, wounded 400, and killed or injured nearly 30,000 Iranians while pushing the world economy to the brink of recession and imposing economic costs on people around the world.

The diversion has worked — at least, for now. Epstein has been pushed off the front pages, even though the Justice Department has unlawfully refused to release 2.5 million pages of evidence.

While two members of Congress have just resigned because of alleged sexual misconduct, Trump has been accused by at least 19 other women of sexual misconduct. He has so far been shielded from accountability in the Epstein scandal by his own Justice Department. But detailed accounts of Trump’s alleged predation are already part of the public record, including in documents filed as part of civil lawsuits.

The stench of scandal has characterized the Trump White House. The president and his Cabinet have repeatedly violated the Constitution, engaged in profitable conflicts of interest, abused his pardon power, deployed the military against the civilian population, ignored citizens’ constitutional rights, withheld public funds from states that didn’t vote for him, and used the threat of legal action and the denial of federal funds to extort private corporations and universities into conformance with his policies.

Trump has turned the U.S. Justice Department into his personal goon squad with specious investigations of his perceived enemies. Now, as they watch Trump’s support slipping among voters, his allies are reportedly working to rig this year’s elections and the presidential election in 2028.

That is the presidency to which Trump is building monuments.

Not all of America’s presidents have been paragons of virtue. But they have generally understood that their legacy would not be enshrined in white marble or gold coins, or in awards designed to bribe them. A president’s legacy is defined by deeds. It is enshrined in policies that make America stronger, democracy healthier, life better, justice more equal, and citizens more secure.

The voting public has twice given Trump the opportunity to redeem his legacy. Each time, he has only made it worse. His last chance is to resign now, citing health reasons.

If he doesn’t, then the challenge of redemption will pass to Congress. History will remember its current members more kindly if they do their jobs by removing Trump from office before he does irreparable damage to the country.

Message from Vietnam Vets (Live Suckers and Losers) to Draft Dodger Moron

Vietnam vets sue Trump over 250-foot ‘Triumphal Arch’ set to tower over Arlington National Cemetery where veterans rest
AnnaMarie Houlis
Mon, April 20, 2026

Three Vietnam War veterans and an architectural historian are suing Donald Trump, according to 9News (1). They argue that his plans to build a 250-foot "triumphal arch" near the Arlington National Cemetery's main entrance lacks congressional approval, violates federal law, and would be disrespectful of those buried there.

If erected, the triumphal arch — inspired by [the] Arc de Triomphe in Paris — would be the largest in the world. And critics worry that the sheer size of it alone would dominate the landscape, leaving nearby landmarks like the Lincoln Memorial — and our veterans — in its shadow.

"What has happened here is that the president has decided that he can just unilaterally go ahead and erect this monument," Wendy Liu, who represents the veterans who feel personal ties to the cemetery, told 9News. "The thought of being buried in the shadow of what they have described as a vainglorious arch is profoundly disrespectful."

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has said that the monument is meant to commemorate the country's 250-year history — "outfitted with artwork celebrating the success of the American people," a design for which the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts has given initial approval. Still, further federal approvals are required to advance the project.

While the lawsuit is ongoing, the Triumphal Arch is not Trump's only controversial plan to concretely change some of the country's most important places. Nor would it become the first time he moves forward with debatable decisions without the appropriate approval.

Trump is currently pushing to renovate the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, which used to be one of D.C.'s few apolitical spaces — before he made the disputatious decision to emblazon his own name on the building in December of last year (2).

Trump secured almost $257 million (2) from Congress to close the Kennedy Center for immediate repairs, which critics argue should — like all other major projects in the country's capital — go through the standard review process.

Nonetheless, in March 2026, the board decided to temporarily pause operations to allow for "the most comprehensive" renovation effort. Roma Daravi, Vice President of Public Relations said in a press release (2) that the project will "transform the Center into a world-class destination worthy of the nation's legacy and future," making it a place "where every American is welcome to experience artistic excellence and premiere entertainment."

An anonymous Kennedy Center employee confirmed to The New York Times (3) that ticket sales and subscription revenue have dramatically fallen since Trump made himself chairman and vowed to make the institution "hot" again, purging the previously bipartisan board appointed by President Joe Biden.

In addition to The Kennedy Center, the Trump administration has also started work on the White House itself.

Beyond redecorating the Oval Office with self-portraits, his administration has begun demolishing the East Wing, which has historically been the base of operations for the first lady. Instead, Trump is planning a $250 million 90,000-square-foot ballroom, despite the lack of approval from the National Capital Planning Commission — the federal agency that oversees construction on government buildings in Washington.

According to the Associated Press (4), Will Scharf, White House Staff Secretary, said during a public meeting of the National Capital Planning Commission in 2025, that "demolition and site preparation work can certainly occur, but … actually building anything … should go through [the] approval process."

L. Preston Bryant Jr. — who President Barack Obama appointed to chair the commission in 2009 — reportedly added that there are four stages of approval. Proposed projects typically begin with an early consultation, when most of them are still "very much conceptual." But Trump's ballroom seems to have skipped at least some of those steps.

And Trump is not stopping there.

Most recently, he has begun putting plans in place to paint the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

The gray "eyesore" — which sits across the street from the White House's West Wing — does not "align visually with the surrounding architecture" and "lacks any symbolic cohesion," according to the project proposal (5) submitted to the Commission of Fine Arts. Trump prefers that it be painted white.

America's Arab Gulf Girls Uncomfortable with Trump's War. Want US Bases Out

The Gulf and the War 

Trump's got it coming. He may get what he wished for.

He's constantly nagging about spending money on defending other countries. In Europe and elsewhere. He's harassed these countries to increase their defense spending, and that for two reasons: 1- He says they are ripping the US off by depending on US protection, but also 2- Because he thinks he can sell them weapons and make money out of not protecting them.

He's a jackass, to be sure, because he doesn't understand that the US is defending itself by spreading its bases wherever it can to counter potential enemies. The US doesn't build a military base in the Arab Gulf countries because it, as a pimp, wants to protect its decadent girls there. It has bases there because it is defending its interests, which is a vague term that often boils down to things like access to oil, protection of oil and gas fields it wants and needs, projecting power (i.e. scaring off rivals), establishing military highways between various geopolitical positions on the globe, etc.

That was working fine until the jackass became president. He handles the presidency as a grocery store owner, counting every penny at the end of the day and oblivious to any higher-level considerations such as marketing, client maintenance, building neighborliness, etc. By reducing the presidency to counting beans (not mentioning the self-glorification - his faith advisor bimbo blonde just announced that syaing no to the dumb imbecile is saying no to God), the jackass is losing all the fine-thread relationships that the US has built to maintain its preeminence.

And now his Arab Gulf girls, despondent at losing all the glamour and lipstick they slapped on their shimmering desert shantytowns because their pimp is jeopardizing all their clients, are beginning to say to themselves: We don't need a pimp. We can play around dangerous games by ourselves. We've grown up. We don't need protection. Just like the European allies. In so doing, the jackass has demolished everything the US had built since WWII: the trust in partnerships with the US. It might take a while for all these countries to adjust, but they will eventually adjust, either by going solo or by forging deals with alternate pimps, particularly cool-headed ones like China. 

I thought Trump would be street-smart because of his vulgarities and mob-like persona. But he isn't even that. He's just a dumb and stupid bully with one single neuron in his decaying brain that fires only self-ingratiating impulses. It really is that simple.

UAE Professor Says It’s ‘Time to Think About Closing the American Bases’ After Trump’s Iran War: ‘They Are a Burden’

United Arab Emirates (UAE) University professor Abdulkhaleq Abdulla declared on Sunday that it was “time to think about closing the American bases” in the country after President Donald Trump pulled the region into a war with Iran.

“This is what I told Reuters today: The UAE no longer needs America to defend it, as it has proven during the Iranian aggression that it is capable of defending itself with distinction,” Abdulla, a former adviser to the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, said in a statement. “What the UAE needs is to acquire only the best and latest weapons that America has. Therefore, it is time to think about closing the American bases, as they are a burden and not a strategic asset.”

The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that the UAE was in talks with the Trump administration about a potential currency swap, which would protect the nation’s economy should the war against Iran continue to drag on.

“The talks highlighted the U.A.E.’s concern that the war could inflict major damage on its economy and its position as a global financial hub, depleting its foreign reserves and scaring away investors who once saw it as a stable and secure place for their money,” the Journal reported, adding that “Emirati officials told the U.S. officials that if the U.A.E. runs short of dollars, it may be forced to use Chinese yuan or other countries’ currencies for oil sales and other transactions.”

Since the outbreak of Trump’s war against Iran, many U.S. military bases in the region have been struck by Iranian missiles and drones.

UAE oil facilities have also been damaged during the war.

Last month, the Trump administration forced through more than $23 billion in weapons sales to Middle Eastern allies currently under attack by Iran, including the UAE.

According to the New York Times, the UAE is set to receive Patriot missile systems, drones, Chinook helicopters, air-to-air missiles, and a missile defense radar.

‘Not Well’ Trump’s Wild Tantrum Sparks Call for Drastic Action
Vic Verbalaitis
Mon, April 20, 2026

President Donald Trump’s behind-the-scenes meltdown in the White House is prompting further calls to invoke the 25th Amendment.

New York congressman Dan Goldman shared his response on Sunday evening to a Wall Street Journal report from Saturday night that alleged Trump, 79, threw an hours-long tantrum over a rescue mission for two downed airmen.


The commander-in-chief was excluded from commanding a military operation because he was acting so crazy. Think about that,” Goldman, 50, wrote in a post from his personal X account. “Trump is not well. We need the 25th amendment before something really bad happens on US soil.”

The Daily Beast reached out to the White House for comment.

White House insiders told the newspaper that Trump was banished from a briefing on a rescue mission for two American airmen who were missing in Iran, with aides opting to update the president at intervals instead of having him in the room.

The president, screaming at aides about gas prices and the 1979 Iran Hostage Crisis, was reportedly worried a failed rescue could signal the end of his presidency.

“If you look at what happened with Jimmy Carter…with the helicopters and the hostages, it cost them the election,” Trump had said in March, according to the outlet. “What a mess.”

Goldman’s call to remove Trump from office echoes a group of House Democrats who introduced an effort to invoke the 25th Amendment on Tuesday following a string of “erratic behavior” from the president, which includes his feud with the pope, his doomsday threats on Truth Social, and his posting an AI photo of himself as Jesus Christ.

The bill, released by House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin, establishes a Commission on Presidential Capacity to Discharge the Powers and Duties of Office.

“Public trust in Donald Trump’s ability to meet the duties of his office has dropped to unprecedented lows as he threatens to destroy entire civilizations, unleashes chaos in the Middle East while violating Congressional war powers, aggressively insults the Pope of the Catholic Church and sends out artistic renderings online likening himself to Jesus Christ,” the Maryland rep said in a statement.

Raskin, 63, added that the country is at a “dangerous precipice, and it is now a matter of national security for Congress to fulfill its responsibilities under the 25th Amendment to protect the American people from an increasingly volatile and unstable situation.”

Trump’s approval among Americans has plummeted throughout his second term, primarily due to his handling of the war he started with Iran.

An NBC News poll published on Sunday found that 63 percent of Americans disapprove of Trump’s overall performance, with 50 percent saying they strongly disapprove.

The poll also found that only a third of Americans think Trump has done a good job handling the war in Iran, which has resulted in the confirmed deaths of 13 American service members and hundreds more injured.

[updated] Israel's War Against Christians Continues in South Lebanon

 [Update]: And now the crocodile tears and the hypocritical promises of punishing the settler soldier who used an axe to smash a statue of Jesus in the Lebanese Maronite Catholic village of Debel in south Lebanon. Imagine what lies behind this one soldier. Imagine his fellow settler terrorists laughing and chanting as they filmed him. Imagine the tenor of his superiors' orders of the day: brutal and racist Jewish fanaticism that disguises itself as a force for good to keep convincing a credulous and guilty West to support the Zionist cancer in the Near East. Ever since Israel was created per a 3,000 year old fanatic self-glorification that has been unrelenting and barbaric for all these millennia and that seems unable to let go of an antiquated racist and supremacist ideology.

I would like to put war criminal Netanyahu on notice: Tell us WHEN, WHERE AND HOW this criminal settler terrorist will be punished. Not one settler soldier of the Israel Death Forces militia has ever been punished for egregious acts of crimes against humanity and war crimes. Not one. 

I still wonder how can the dumb Maronites and their Lebanese American tails in the US (they should change their name to MORONITES) continue to think Israel is their savior and not see what is underneath this violation of their most sacred symbols and not react with repulsion. Those Maronites of the diaspora and the homeland are so stupid that they can only react to events. They never propose anything that simply emanates from their own thinking and planning. No. They just wait for others, usually dumb assholes from the US Republican party that never ceased to stab them in the back, to solve their problems for  while they bend and kiss the hand of anyone who promises them salvation while screwing them in the back: Syrians, Arabs, Saudis, American, Egyptians, Israelis, Emiratis... Anyone who can buy their loyalty, just as Trump is doing right now. But for them to sit together like one people, like one nation, and unite behind a plan of their own for how they are going to survive as a minority surrounded by extremist Jews and Muslims, that is beyond their stupefied brains. They practice politics exactly as they do back in the old country: Vassals of feudal lords, with clientelism and corruption up to their eyeballs. 

Here is the Zionist militia statement. Reading it, you'd think you're dealing with a tolerant and civilized bunch of people. But far from it. The systematic persecution of all indigenous non-Jews in occupied Palestine and those people that are being bombed, killed and displaced and their lands stolen by the foreign settlers is a policy of the artificial Zionist colony in Palestine. (Note: Initial is underlined because the next statement, in a few months of "investigation", will accuse the local Maronites of having diguised themselves as a Zionist terrorist to impunge the "most moral army on earth". 

“Following the completion of an initial examination regarding a photograph published earlier today of an IDF soldier harming a Christian symbol, it was determined that the photograph depicts an IDF soldier operating in southern Lebanon,” said the military organization in a post on X. “The IDF views the incident with great severity and emphasizes that the soldier’s conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops. The incident is being investigated by the Northern Command and is currently being addressed through the chain of command. Appropriate measures will be taken against those involved in accordance with the findings. Furthermore, the IDF is working to assist the community in restoring the statue to its place The IDF is operating to dismantle the terrorist infrastructure established by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, and has no intention of harming civilian infrastructure, including religious buildings or religious symbols.” 

Then, to add insult to injury, here is the creepy statement by war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu who uses the same language he and his ilk have been using for decades to dehumanize the very people they are raping while pretending to be a western outpost in a barbaric Muslim and Christian Near East. Netanyahu has been telling the West that his brutality is necessary to uphold Western values and bring civilization to this primitive part of the world. 

No one believes him anymore, except the dumb morons of America. Netanyahu claims that Israel "is the only country in the region that protects Christians ..." BULLSHIT. At the very moment he is lying to the American public (his targeted audience), he is bombing churches and Christian villages across Lebanon because those Christians have had to shelter hundreds of thousands of their fellow Lebanese that have been displaced by Israeli savagery. Not one Christian church or school or maternity or shelter is standing in Gaza. There are no Christians being slaughtered in Syria and Lebanon. How can that be when the Lebanese president and half of his cabinet are Christians? How could the "slaughtered" Christians of Lebanon be negotiating with this Zionist asshole in Washington DC?

For a century now, the Lebanese have chosen the diffficult path of accommodation and power-sharing between Christians and Muslims. It has been a tortuous journey but one that is based on a genunine desire to find common ground and teach the world the values of coexistence. What has Israel done over the same past century? It has chosen the opposite path: That of foreign imported Jewish fanaticism, supremacy, violence, racism and hatred against the native indigenous Muslims and Christians. Wasnt he, the same war criminal asshole Netanyahu, who recently declared Israel is a "democracy-for-Jews-only" that excludes all others from the bounties of democracy? How can that be a democracy? 

To my American readers: When are you going to stop being so foolish and dumb as to believe these Zionist lies?  

"As the Jewish state, Israel cherishes and upholds the Jewish values of tolerance and mutual respect between Jews and worshippers of all faiths. All religions flourish in our land and we view members of all faiths as equals in building our society and region.

Yesterday, like the overwhelming majority of Israelis, I was stunned and saddened to learn that an IDF soldier damaged a Catholic religious icon in southern Lebanon. I condemn the act in the strongest terms. Military authorities are conducting a criminal probe of the matter and will take appropriately harsh disciplinary action against the offender.

While Christians are being slaughtered in Syria and Lebanon by Muslims, the Christian population in Israel thrives unlike elsewhere in the Middle East. Israel is the only country in the region that the Christian population and standard of living is growing. Israel is the only place in the Middle East that adheres to freedom of worship for all. We express regret for the incident and for any hurt this has caused to believers in Lebanon and around the world."

==========================================

Is it the same continuing Zionist policy of persecuting Christians in occupied Palestine? Not too long ago, back at Easter, Zionist settler soldiers forbade the Catholic senior clergy of Jerusalem from holding their Easter procession. Not to mention the incessant harassment of Catholics and Orthodox Palestinian Christians, as well as the Armenians of the Armenian Christian quarter of Jerusalem, with the objective of dispossessing them of their homes and churches to make way for brand new foreign Zionist settlers.

Is it to poke the Pope in the eye because of his opposition to the Iran war?

Is it to demonstrate the Zionist preference for Evangelical colonialist pro-Zionist rapists of Palestine? If the Zionists claim Yahweh has chosen them as his perfect people, they in turn have chosen Evangelical so-called Christians as their favorite Christians. This is a practice long embedded in the Hebrew-Zionist mindset. Remember how Yahweh preferred carnivorous Abel over vegan Cain? Yahweh definitely loved Abel's red meat and was not impressed with Cain's lentils and barley. In making this preference so evident and blatant,  the capricious scheming Yahweh incited Cain to kill his brother Abel. No wonder criminals like Trump, Netanyahu and others claim they are doing God's will by killing tens of thousands of innocent people. 

Now, war criminal Netanyahu keeps parotting that Israel is all about defending freedom of religions and promoting western values. But the Zionist child killer lies, like his buddy Trump. They say one thing and do its oppotite.
 
A Zionist settler terrorist is seen in this screenshot from an X Post smashing a statue of Jesus in southern Lebanon in the Christian Maronite Catholic village of Debel on April 19, 2026. Like the fanatic Taliban of Afghanistan who smashed th
Buddhas of Bamiyan in 2001 or the primitive ISIS-Al-Qaeda-Daesh fanatics who set out to destroy the antiquities of the Iraqi museums or the antique city of Palmyra in Syria (2016). Religious fanaticism can only win by destroying other religions. Pagan Rome itself converted to Christianity and switched from persecuting Christians to persectuing pagans: in Lebanon it proceeded to destroy every Phoenician temple and statue or convert the statues from Ishtar to Mary, from Adonis to Jesus, and Phoenician temples to churches. 

Now, per their inborn legacy as students of Joseph Goebbels's Nazi propaganda, the Zionists in Israel say they have launched an investigation after several accuracy checkers determined the picture was authentic and not AI-maufactured. 

Let me ask you: How many times in the past have you read Israeli military investigation reports on crimes committed by Israeli settler soldiers? Rampages, rapes and burning villages in occupied Palestine? Zionist settler soldiers dumping bodies of Palestinians they just killed from the rooftops? Deliberately shooting Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu-Akleh in the neck, the only exposed part of her body amply labeled as PRESS, by an Israeli Zionist settler; first investigation said it was a Palestinian who shot her; second investigation said it was random fire by Zionist settler soldiers; third investigation said it was indeed a settler soldier who had made a mistake. Bottom line: When the rare occasion of an investigation is conducted under intense world pressure, the results are only lies and obfuscations. 

The "most moral army in the world" - in War Criminal and Prophet Netanyahu's words inspired by the self-declared status of God's most favorite pet people - says it views the Zionist settler soldier desecrating a Christian representation with "great severity and emphasizes that the soldier's conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops". Sounds civilized, but barbarity can disguise itself until a conclusive report is issued and the settler soldier punished, which is NEVER.

You see, Zionists claim to be bringing tolerance and civilization to the "barbaric" Middle East, with "barbarity" implicitly and laregly pointing to Muslim practices, but rarely expressed against Christians (out of fear of alienating the fallacy of a united "Judeo-Christian" western civilization against Muslim barbarity.) But the facts speak otherwise. How can fools accept the Judeo-Christian concept when the history of western civilization, ever since the Roman empire, is pregnant with hatred of Jews because "they murdered Jesus". Antisemitism is a western notion. It does not exist in Muslim lands and other non-western lands. The very hypothetical notion of a "Jewish people" is itself a charade in which various races and ethnicities are buried under the barbaric religion of Judaism, which has over millennia spawned equally barbaric cults of christianity and islam. In fact, Islam itself continues to promote the canard of a "Muslim people" or "Muslim Umma" (Nation of Islam) gathering within its hordes people of all ethnicities and races. The Christians did for many centuries promote a "Christian people" but has long ago abandoned that religious identity falsehood in favor of national identities, though there are barbarians out there who want to revive it (like the American moron Evangelicals) or are still attached to it out of a primitive mindset (like the Lebanese Maronite neanderthals).

"The IDF [Israel Death Forces] views the incident [Zionist settler soldier smashing a statue of Jesus in Christian Lebanon] with great severity and emphasizes that the soldier’s conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops," the settler military declared, using grand words like, "The incident is being investigated by the Northern Command and is currently being addressed through the chain of command. Appropriate measures will be taken against those involved in accordance with the findings." How un-Arab. How un-Muslim. How civilized Jewish. How rational. How detached. So western civilization-like!

Now the Evangelical American poodles of the Zionists see no problem with the settler soldier conduct. They hate Catholics and all non-Evangelical Christians, and see with a favorable eye attacks like this one.  According to the witnesses among the Maronite community in the village of Ain Ebel in southern Lebanon, the incident took place in Debel, a Maronite Christian village about six kilometers to the northwest and roughly five kilometers northeast of the Israeli border community of Shtula.

Per Netanyahu and his horde of Zionist barbarians hailing from the desolate wilderness of Eastern European steppes, Israel is a "democracy-for-Jewsonly", even if the population of historic Palestine is about half indigenous Palestinian, half foreign invading settlers. And the Maronite idiots of the American-Lebanese community in the US (Walid Phares, Atef Harb and other tails of Trump's MAGA) and their leaders in Lebanon proper aspire to emulate Israel: They want a "democracy-for-Maronites-only" in a Lebanon that used to be Maronite majority in the 1920s and 1930s, but was slowly swamped by an influx of Syrian Muslim citizens whose regions were annexed to Lebanon by the Maronite Church (against advice by the French mandatory power) to create the ungovernable Greater Lebanon filthy monstrosity. 

While in Israel Zionists come together despite their vitriolic internecine hatreds, the Maronites in Lebanon are disorganized, quarrelsome, corrupt and lack any sense of governance based on rational planning and objective-setting. Even though they are wealthy (from either domestic corruption or from diaspora generosity), they generally drift from one crisis to another, beset by incessant internal disputes of feudal and medieval warlord vintage, incapable of unity against the fellow Lebanese Muslim threat. The Maronites in Lebanon are a tragic community that keeps losing ground to all their enemies around them, while dispatching candidates for beatification and sanctification to Rome like a Ford car assembly chain. Even the Vatican has tired of all the applications for sainthood coming out of Lebanon. 

I think the Lebanese Maronite per-capita rate of sanctification is the highest by far around the world. The Maronites even sanctify mass murderers and criminals like Saint Elias, a Christian convert and Palestinian warlord usually pictured with a sword slaying innocent Phoenicians who refused to convert to the new and sublime Christian religion. I do not doubt that, given enough distance of time between his brutal existence on earth (1970s-1980s) and a fast approaching future, Bashir Gemayel (who was a warlord and briefly a president of the country before his assssination) will be some day beatified and sanctified by the Maronite Church. All it takes is a puny "miracle" that is manufactured around him for a beatification and sanctification dossier to be submitted to the Vatican.

In essence, when a barbarian Jew desecrates an equally barbaric Christian representation of Jesus, while both claim they are victims of Muslim barbarity, the only conclusion one can logically draw is that the Supreme Zombie in the Sky, a.k.a. El, Yahweh, God, Dieu, Allah, Gott, etc...is a blood-thirsty sadistic schemer who spends his eternal time mucking around with his imbecile monotheistic followers who, in turn, are masochistic addicts who enjoy pain and humiliation while claiming they are killing their fellow monotheists because the Supreme Zombie in the Clouds loves them more than the others.
