This is like if you were a kid looking to understand what God means in the Bible/Torah/Quran and your priest/rabbi/imam tells you to read the Bible/Torah/Quran to understand the word of God. Hell this Tammy Bruce dipshit sounds like she believes Trump is a living god.

A tally by Ranking House Judiciary Dem Jamie Raskin and his team has determined that convicted felon “President Trump’s pardon spree has also swept in big-time corporate fraudsters, millionaire tax evaders, and other white-collar criminals. Thanks to President Trump’s pardons, these convicted criminals now get to keep $1.3 billion in ill-gotten gains they stole from their victims and American taxpayers,” CBS News reports on some serious waste fraud and abuse by the fat fuck.

The question was never whether the Trump T1 was – like the failed Freedom Phone before it – a modded reskin of some cheap-ass Chinese Android model but which cheap-ass Chinese Android model it will be a modded reskin of. Tech analyst Max Weinbach believes he’s arrived at the answer: Wingtech REVVL 7 Pro 5G, previously available in the US as a T-Mobile-branded budget option, which Weinbach writes is made by Chinese company “Wingtech, now owned by Luxshare, makes it in Jiaxing, Wuxi, or Kunming China,” which Apple Insider says can be found on Amazon for $169.

This was also suggested as the likeliest answer by both ChatGPT and Claude based on the specs listed on the Trump Mobile site. Grok said it also might’ve been the Vivo Y78, which goes for as low as $180 and is also a cheap-ass Chinese model, but the only difference is $11.

In separate and entertaining pieces by the Wall Street Journal “Trump’s Smartphone Can’t Be Made in America for $499 by August” and the Verge “The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible” tech writers at both outlets laid out in pretty rich detail why there’s no chance in hell the T1 will ever be manufactured in the United States and certainly not before August, and yet a Trump Org spokeswoman wrote in an email that the phones will be built in California, Florida, and Alabama Johns Hopkins operations management and business analytics Professor Tinglong Dai said that’s bullshit. “There’s absolutely no way you could make the screen, get that memory, camera, battery, everything,” in the US without at least five years of intensive investment and planning.

There is no universe in which current New York City Comptroller and Dem mayoral candidate Brad Lander – sitting in a distant third in most polls behind disgraced former Gov Andrew Cuomo and AOC-endorsed lib Zohran Mamdani in the D primary – didn’t want to get arrested when he showed up at an immigration court in Manhattan on Tuesday and got in between ICE agents and a man waiting for a hearing, demanding to see their warrant for the man’s detention, which they refused.

It was a campaign stunt. Not a bad one either. But per the New York Times, Lander isn’t in regular jail. “Chloe Chik, a spokeswoman for the comptroller’s office, said Mr Lander was being held on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza, where migrants apprehended by ICE are typically held,” they write.

Look, I'm seeing this from the inside, and am admittedly biased towards our president (and my friend), but there's a lot of crazy stuff on social media, so I wanted to address some things directly on the Iran issue:

First, POTUS has been amazingly consistent, over 10 years, that…

Would write “TLDR” here and then a summary of what Jaydee wrote. But it’s TLDR in literally too long didn’t read it. And won’t. The first sentence is enough to get the gist of this sob story.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Tuesday told reporters that the House GOP’s $9.4 billion “DOGE cuts” rescissions bill gutting public media funding and a whole bunch of other shit has been referred to the Appropriations Committee, which Punchbowl’s Andrew Desiderio writes is “an acknowledgment they don’t have the votes for the bill as-is” adding Susan Collins is “among those concerned [lol] about cuts to global health funding. Others don’t like public broadcasting cuts.”

“We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn’t compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured ‘stuff.’ Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA,” posted TACO Man on Tuesday.

He didn’t explain who’s “we.” Meanwhile Axios reports that the fat fuck is convening his top national security team for a meeting in the situation room this afternoon. It’s not clear if it happened yet.

“We know exactly where the so-called ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there – We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now. But we don’t want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump continued, thanking the Ayatollah for his attention to the matter. “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!” the fat bastard then posted as if he was the one ordering the attack.

Refusing to do something cool or funny like trying to flee to Canada or Mexico, Dem former New Jersey Senator “Gold Bars Bob” Menendez showed up for his 11 year stay at a Club Fed in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, CBS’s Scott MacFarlane reports, citing the Bureau of Prisons.

Too bad that painfully obvious bid for a pardon didn’t work out for Bob. Of course the door closing behind him doesn’t mean the door to clemency from the Orange God Emperor is closed as well, it could come any day in the next three and a half years. Plenty of idle time for indulging in false hope.

“Mr President, God spared you in Butler, PA to be the most consequential President in a century-maybe ever. The decisions on your shoulders I would not want to be made by anyone else. You have many voices speaking to you Sir, but there is only ONE voice that matters. HIS voice. I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you but I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts. No President in my lifetime has been in a position like yours. Not since Truman in 1945. I don’t reach out to persuade you. Only to encourage you. I believe you will hear from heaven and that voice is far more important than mine or ANYONE else’s. You sent me to Israel to be your eyes, ears and voice and to make sure our flag flies above our embassy. My job is to be the last one to leave. I will not abandon this post. Our flag will NOT come down! You did not seek this moment. This moment sought YOU! It is my honor to serve you!” wrote US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee in a text message to convicted felon Trump in recent days.

The revolting message was leaked by none other than its recipient himself, who posted it on Tuesday.

This week’s Economist/YouGov national survey finds convicted felon President Trump’s approval rating on “Inflation/prices” – rated the most important single issue among respondents overall at 18 percent – at just 35 percent, down a fifth from March when it was at 42 percent.

Even 20 percent of the fat fuck’s own voters disapprove of his handling of the issue. Overall Donald’s job approval rating is down to 41 percent, not far from the 38 he scored in last week’s Quinnipiac national poll. The best issue for him was “crime” and even that was 1 percent underwater at 44/45 percent approve/disapprove. On immigration he’s 8 percent in the red at 44 to 52 percent approve/disapprove, on which 13 percent of his own voters don’t like what they’re seeing.

Other questions revealed some pretty interesting non-zero percentages from Trump 2024 voters too: 12 percent say he’s “Not honest and trustworthy,” 6 percent of them each said they personally either dislike him “Somewhat” or “A lot,” 11 percent said they don’t think he has the temperament to be president and another 8 weren’t sure if he does. On “Are you confident in Donald Trump’s ability to deal wisely with an international crisis, or are you uneasy about his approach?” 11 percent of MAGA voters said no, another 6 percent were unsure. On every one of these questions the negative rating from Trump’s own voters was larger than the opposite rating among those who voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris last November. Probably should come up with a formula or something for that, like “exclusive net negative” to offset the idiots who say they voted for Harris but also that Trump is honest and trustworthy. That was 6 percent of Harris voters, by the way.

“Advance estimates of US retail and food services sales for May 2025, adjusted for seasonal variation and holiday and trading-day differences, but not for price changes, were $715.4 billion, down 0.9 percent (±0.5 percent) from the previous month, and up 3.3 percent (±0.5 percent) from May 2024. Total sales for the March 2025 through May 2025 period were up 4.5 percent (±0.4 percent) from the same period a year ago. The March 2025 to April 2025 percent change was revised from up 0.1 percent (±0.5 percent)* to down 0.1 percent (±0.2 percent)*. Retail trade sales were down 0.9 percent (±0.5 percent) from April 2025, and up 3.0 percent (±0.5 percent) from last year. Nonstore retailers were up 8.3 percent (±1.4 percent) from last year, while food service and drinking places were up 5.3 percent (±1.8 percent) from May 2024,” says the Bureau of Economic Analysis’s monthly report. According to Bloomberg Wall Street geeks had expected a 0.6 decrease meaning the Trump economy beat expectations by negative 0.3 percent. Excluding auto sales, they had expected +0.2 but expectations were beat again at -0.3 percent. Such MAGA, so winning.

A new Washington Post/Ipsos national survey on the Big Beautiful Bill finds 42 percent of respondents opposed, edging out 34 percent with “No opinion,” showing that Americans who actually pay attention instead of listening to fucking Joe Rogan talk to “Gary Brecka” about “How Seed Oil’s [sic] Are Made and Why it’s Bad” or ponder questions like “Is the Statue of Liberty Based on a Satanic Painting?” somewhat outnumber the “seed oil’s” and satanic Lady Liberty crowd.

However combine the 23 percent in favor with the 34 percent Joe Rogan-Barstool Sports-Draft Kings set, for which the word “retards” is demeaning to folks born with intellectual disabilities as they had no choice in the matter and thus could never be guilty of the fucking abysmal moral failures of the deliberately disengaged dipshits who got America here, and you get a glide path to passage for a bill in which “Reducing federal funding for food assistance to low-income households” is 2 percent underwater among Republican respondents to the poll. That’s a functional GOP majority.

As with everything about Michael Wolff’s reporting on the Trump White House, it feels true but it just may not actually be true: This time he tells the Daily Beast that convicted felon President Trump was less than pleased with the way his big birthday parade went on Saturday, specifically that he wanted a “menacing” display of America’s military might but got a “festive” celebration instead, leading the fat fuck to rip into white nationalist alcoholic Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

“He’s pissed off at the soldiers. He’s accusing them of hamming it up, and by that, he seems to mean that they were having a good time, that they were waving, that they were enjoying themselves and showing a convivial face rather than a military face,” said Wolff and again, it feels true.

“He kind of reamed out Hegseth for this. Apparently, there was a phone call, and he said to Hegseth, the tone was all wrong. Why was the tone wrong? Who staged this? There was the tone problem. Trump, he keeps repeating himself. It didn’t send the message that he apparently wanted, which is that he was the commander in chief of this menacing enterprise,” Wolff continued and, it’s unclear if this has been corroborated by reporting from people like Maggie Haberman, Josh Dawsey, Andrew Feinberg, etc but it does line up with the loose, casual way that the soldiers marched past the Orange God Emperor’s viewing stand. Asked to comment on Wolff’s reporting, large-headed White House comms director Steven Cheung was characteristically belligerent, calling Wolff a “lying sack of shit” who “routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe debilitating case of TDS that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

Cheung has gotten just as angry and defensive about things that were independently verifiable.

Hard to nail this down, especially since it’s coming from Fox News, but at some point in the last few hours the IDF ordered a mass evacuation of a district in Tehran home to 300,000 people.

The FBI has located documents which detail alarming allegations related to the 2020 U.S. election, including allegations of interference by the CCP.

FBI Director K$H Patel on Monday announced he had handed a 91 year-old man a stack of printouts of unsolicited tips from MAGA voters claiming the ChiComs printed out fake ballots and somehow replaced valid voter ballots in the 2020 election – a nefarious plot which they somehow were unable to repeat in the 2024 election. “Sry Mr Patel that I thot u wer guy frm 711 n Cris Ray is stil dirctr of FB1 // My mistke. I like u arabs, u R vry nice ppl. Apologez // Im nt racist. I will look at ur paprs 2 see if orientls printd them // Will look 4 chingchong letters.

“We write to inform Your Honor that Plaintiff Jennifer Eckhart and Defendant Ed Henry have reached a settlement. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a signed stipulation of discontinuance with prejudice as to Plaintiff’s claims against Defendant Henry. Separately, Plaintiff respectfully requests that the Court enter final judgment in this action as to the claims brought against Fox News Network, LLC, so that Plaintiff can (respectfully) appeal Your Honor’s summary judgment Order dismissing the claims against Fox News Network, LLC. We thank Your Honor for the Court’s time and consideration of this matter,” wrote lawyers for plaintiff Jennifer Eckhart to a judge in Manhattan on Monday, notifying the court that her nearly five year-long case against now-Newsmax anchor Ed Henry has been settled.

“I have not reached out to Iran for “Peace Talks” in any way, shape, or form. This is just more HIGHLY FABRICATED, FAKE NEWS! If they want to talk, they know how to reach me. They should have taken the deal that was on the table – Would have saved a lot of lives!!!” posted convicted felon President Trump at 5:20 AM EDT on Tuesday, which would’ve been 4 hours and 5 minutes after “Publicity seeking President Emmanuel Macron, of France, mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to DC to work on a ‘cease fire’ between Israel and Iran. Wrong! He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that. Whether purposely or not, Emmanuel always gets it wrong. Stay Tuned!”

Convicted felon President Trump’s reich has again reversed course on ICE raids at farms, hotels, and restaurants, now ordering agents to go arrest whoever they want wherever they want, ending for now the exceptions the fat fuck gave to those industries, the Washington Post reports.
