On a January 15 through 17th CBS News/YouGov national survey's question of "Financial Condition Under Trump: Do you think Donald Trump's policies as president will make you…" "Financially better off," "Financially worse off," or "Stay about the same," 76 percent of respondents identified as Republican voters said better off, just 4 percent said worse, and 20 percent said same just days before their Orange Allah returned to office. With Dem voters it was 17 percent expecting better, 51 percent worse, 32 percent the same, making the partisan bent to the response a little more muted than the total inverse you might've expected. The indie respondents were closer to the Dems at 37 better, 30 worse, and 33 percent same. Overall was 42 better, 28 worse, 30 percent same.

Fast forward 71 days and the same question amended to the present tense with "Do you think Donald Trump's policies are making you," just 43 percent of Republican respondents now say they are making them better off, 9 percent worse, and 48 percent the same, a net swing of 33 percent from better to worse or a 28 percent drop from better to the same, depending on how you want to score it. With indie voters better dropped to 21 percent, worse rose to 49 percent, same dropped to 30 percent, net swing of 35 percent. The overall was 23 percent better, 42 percent worse, 35 percent same. No point in even bothering with the new Dem numbers, they were brutal.

Despite their naked discomfort with the way things are going economically, Republican respondents, at 91 percent approval of Trump still carried the fat fuck to a 50/50 job rating in the overall. Dems rated the Orange God Emperor at a nearly symmetrical 12 to 88 percent approve/disapprove while independent voter respondents put him at 43 percent approve to 57 disapprove.

"People are shocked by what is going on with the Court System. I was elected for many reasons, but a principal one was LAW AND ORDER, a big part of which is QUICKLY removing a vast Criminal Network of individuals, who came into our Country through the Crooked Joe Biden Open Borders Policy! These are dangerous and violent people, who kill, maim and, in many other ways, harm the people of our Country. The Voters want them OUT, and said so in Record Numbers. If it was up to District Judge Boasberg and other Radical Left Judges, nobody would be removed, the President wouldn't be allowed to do his job, and people's lives would be devastated all throughout our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" posted convicted felon President Trump on Sunday.

Interesting variation on "people are saying." Actually an intensification of it, really. Guess he has to dial it up when he's trying to sell a system in which even US citizens can be falsely accused of being in a mostly made-up Venezuelan street gang and shipped to a dungeon in El Salvador without any recourse or due process in front of a judge whatsoever. Kind of fascist-y, right?

Republican Oklahoma Senator James Lankford on Sunday tried to dismiss the stock market shitshow and the specter of stagflation wrought by convicted felon President Trump's batshit stupid policies, telling CNN's Dana Bash that it's "kinda like a kitchen remodel or a bathroom remodel, there's a bit of a mess at the beginning but everybody has a look term look of where we're headed."

Okay, lol. Before that Lankford also said he thinks Pete Hegseth "just joined into an encrypted app. I don't see it as much of an issue… this is normal communication."

Convicted felon President Trump on Saturday weighed in on the Signal shitshow that made him and his minions look like complete idiots, telling NBC he thinks "it's just a witch hunt and the fake news, like you, talk about it all the time, but it's just a witch hunt, and it shouldn't be talked [about]. We had a tremendously successful strike. We struck very hard and very lethal. And nobody wants to talk about that. All they want to talk about is nonsense. It's fake news," obviously angrily.

"I have no idea what Signal is. I don't care what Signal is," Trump continued. "All I can tell you is it's just a witch hunt, and it's the only thing the press wants to talk about, because you have nothing else to talk about. Because it's been the greatest 100-day presidency in the history of our country."

The fat fuck also said there's "good possibility that we could" seize Greenland "without military force" but that "I don't take anything off the table" and that he didn't care if Americans had to pay 25 percent more for new cars after all his tariffs come into effect. "CLARIFICATION: This article was updated to reflect that after the interview, an aide to Trump followed up with NBC News to say that Trump was referring to foreign car prices," NBC wrote at the end of the article, lol. This as if domestic car prices won't go up one way or another if foreign cars are more expensive.

Far right Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers with some fans, enthusiastic and otherwise, at "The Trumped Store" in Show Low.

This shitshow in the Arizona GOP is insane and best presented in a straight line: Republican Arizona state Representative Walter Blackman is a far right Army combat veteran and, uh, his surname is literal. Like if convicted felon President Donald Trump was instead named Donald Orangeman. Not relevant to the story, but a side laugh to a ridiculous tale of MAGA-on-MAGA rhetorical violence.

Blackman, first elected to the 6th District in 2018, is now in the 7th and technically a freshman again, having taken 2023 and 2024 off after coming in second in the 2022 2nd US House District GOP primary to neckbeard now-Congressman Eli Crane, the really creepy former Navy SEAL Freedom Caucasian who Trump endorsed over Blackman and Ron Watkins, the "brain" behind QAnon, and four others. Crane of course won because he was Trump's chosen endorsee – the "real race" that Blackman was probably disqualified from for the sin of saying it was constitutionally impossible to decertify the 2020 election. The Gateway Pundit then attacked him as a "RINO," after which Blackman's daughter was harassed with text messages from some MAGA terrorists who wrote, among other hateful shit, "Your [n-word] dad is RINO." And this wasn't like Blackman wasn't all "Stop the Steal" after the 2020 election or praised the Proud Boys at a 2022 rally. He's pretty MAGA.

To her credit, unhinged moron Republican Indiana Congresswoman Victoria Spartz did, per Politico Playbook, admit to the angry crowd at a town hall in her district on Friday night that Mike Waltz and his chat buddies' fuckup was "actually very bad." Not to her credit, she told a constituent who called on Spartz to demand the resignations of Waltz and the others that "resignations go to the Senate anyway… So you should talk to the senators. Hopefully they have town halls," demonstrating a pretty massive void in her knowledge of how Congress works and possibly politics writ large.

Playbook writes Spartz said outright she wasn't going to do that, but she could've just said it instead of that "Senate" excuse which, if you had to parse it out, seems to be her confusing simple messaging with the impeachment process in which senators are the jury and decide whether or not the impeached official is convicted and removed from office. All they were asking Spartz to do was make a public statement calling on them to resign, but even her fucking stupid cop out has a problem: If the Senate is the jury, then the House is the grand jury, meaning she has agency here and could introduce or at least support articles of impeachment against Waltz, Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, and the others involved. And she'll have an opportunity to do that soon.

As for the rest of the town hall, Spartz opened by saying "I promise I'll behave," and apparently had acknowledged that the NRCC had told her not to do it. She even earned some respect from what Politico said were a "mostly left-leaning crowd" for staying the whole time, and also made admissions like "President Trump was elected to be president by the majority of Americans, but I know you are frustrated with Elon Musk, I know you are very frustrated. I want to stay engaged."

Still a Spartz minion text Politico to say the "room is full of the 5 percent of liberal maniacs who would lead the Democrat party to lose a national election 55-45."

In a tense Wednesday night meeting, Vice President JD Vance, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and the guy who came up with the Trump NFTs, urged the convicted felon president to fire fucking idiot National Security Advisor Mike Waltz over the Signal chat shitshow, Politico reports.

The fat fuck resisted – for now – because he doesn't "want to give the press a scalp," according to a source. Meaning that Trump wants to fire Waltz but won't because the media, lol.

It was either this or Transformers. Meant to write some intro text about the Inca and Machu Picchu but why replicate the work National Geographic already did here? It's probably pretty good.

Former senior USAID official Sarah Charles tells the Associated Press that the infrastructure to render the help to the regions of Myanmar and Thailand devastated by Friday's 7.7 magnitude earthquake that convicted felon President Trump claimed is on the way is in as much "shambles" as the skyscrapers in Mandalay, all thanks to him and fucking Elon Musk. "We're going to be helping. We've already alerted the people. Yeah, it's terrible what happened," Trump claimed.

Although the contracts for civilian urban search and rescue teams are intact, Charles said the ones for the special transport needed to get the search teams, dogs and heavy equipment to a disaster area are believed to have been cut, so it's anyone's guess how the hell they're supposed to the stricken regions there since Cybertrucks can't fly or drive on water.

At least 144 people were killed in the quake, a toll that is surely to rise. Even though a 7.7 magnitude is no cupcake, the shallow 10 kilometer depth puts the damage closer to what you'd see from a much stronger quake, potentially in the 8.0 to 8.5 range, because the energy was released so close to the surface, which also spread the shaking out and noticeable from from India to Malaysia.

Usha and I are on our way home from an incredible journey to Greenland. We can't wait to come back again soon.

"Today, a unanimous jury found Charlie Javice and Olivier Amar guilty of orchestrating a brazen fraud. Javice, the founder and CEO of Frank, falsely claimed that her company had millions of customers when, in reality, it had just a fraction of that number. She and Amar, the Chief Growth Officer, fabricated data, lied to major financial institutions, and sold their business for $175 million."

"And while Javice and Amar may have thought that they could lie and cheat their way to a huge payday, their lies caught up with them, and they now stand convicted by a jury of their peers in federal court. This Office will continue to pursue financial fraud aggressively and hold accountable those who put greed above honesty. I commend the career prosecutors of this Office and our law enforcement partners who worked tirelessly to bring this case to trial and secure today's verdict.

"Thanks to their efforts, Javice and Amar will now pay a steep price for their lies," says Matthew Podolsky, Acting US Attorney in the Southern District of New York in a statement after Chase got their bloody revenge for being suckered into paying $175 million for Javice and Amar's lame student loan financing startup without first checking the fake database full of nonexistent customers. Chase only found out the customers were largely fake when they tried to spam the "Frank" database and just 28 percent of the email addresses were deliverable, per the Wall Street Journal.

"I am writing to inform you that I have asked the FCC's Enforcement Bureau to open an investigation into Disney and ABC. In particular, I want to ensure that Disney and ABC have not been violating FCC equal employment opportunity regulations by promoting invidious forms of DEI discrimination. While I have seen reports that Disney recently walked back some of its DEI programs, significant concerns remain. For one, I want to ensure that Disney ends any and all discriminatory initiatives in substance, not just name. For another, I want to determine whether Disney's actions-whether ongoing or recently ended-complied at all times with applicable FCC regulations."

"As you know, Disney started out a century ago as an iconic American company. For decades, Disney focused on churning out box office and programming successes. But then something changed. Disney has now been embroiled in rounds of controversy surrounding its DEI policies."

"Numerous reports indicate that Disney's leadership went all in on invidious forms of DEI discrimination a few years ago and apparently did so in a manner that infected many aspects of your company's decisions. As you may know, the Communications Act and Commission rules prohibit regulated entities like Disney's ABC from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, age, or gender. Indeed, the FCC's longstanding equal employment opportunity or EEO rules set forth specific requirements to which Disney's regulated operations must adhere," writes FCC incel Brendan Carr to Disney CEO Bob Iger in another First Amendment crackdown.

Congrats to Iger on settling that lawsuit from Trump a few months ago. Worked for a little while.

The former cocaine-using former White House economic policy something was referring to an Axios report claiming that some Trump Regime officials were considering letting the 2017 tax cuts for the wealthy actually expire, letting the top rate slip from 37 percent back to 39.6 percent.

"If we renew tax cuts for the rich paid for by throwing people off Medicaid, we're gonna get fucking slaughtered" in the midterms, said an anonymous Trump minion to Axios. Believe it when you see it, especially with the GOP Congress, but apparently Kudlow's freaked out enough to shit-talk it on TV.

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul on Friday announced his office will be taking action against billionaire psychopath Elon Musk, issuing a statement, via WKOW, saying "The Wisconsin Department of Justice is committed to ensuring that elections in Wisconsin are safe, secure, free, and fair. We are aware of the offer recently posted by Elon Musk to award a million dollars to two people at an event in Wisconsin this weekend. Based on our understanding of applicable Wisconsin law, we intend to take legal action today to seek a court order to stop this from happening."

Idaho Governor Brad Little on Thursday signed HB 270, amending the state's indecent exposure law to say "(1) A person is guilty of a misdemeanor if the person willfully and lewdly, either: (a) Exposes his or her genitals; exposes developed female breasts, including the areola and nipple; exposes adult male breasts, including the areola and nipple, that have been medically or hormonally altered to appear like developing or developed female breasts; exposes artificial breasts, including the areola and nipple, intended to resemble female breasts; or displays toys or products intended to resemble male or female genitals in any public place, or in any place where there is present another person or persons who are offended thereby; or (b) Procures, counsels, or assists any person" to do the exact same thing as above, which the Washington State Standard reports includes truck nuts.

Boise Democrat Senate Minority Leader Melissa Wintrow said she got confirmation on that from law enforcement officials. "They're gross, they're offensive, and kids on the road see them. So why wouldn't the police get a call and say, 'That offends me, pull it off the truck? Because now this bill will allow it. And I talked to police and they said, 'Indeed it would,'" Wintrow told the Standard.

It's not clear how obese men are supposed to prove that their breasts are natural and not "medically or hormonally altered to appear like developing or developed female breasts" if they find themselves accused of indecently exposure at a lake or swimming pool by "persons who are offended thereby."

The real issue isn't just one security lapse - it's systemic incompetence in a Pentagon bureaucracy that prioritizes woke initiatives over mission readiness. While the Biden-era Defense Department burned billions on DEI programs and climate virtue signaling, they neglected basic…

"While the Biden-era Defense Department burned billions on DEI programs and climate virtue signaling, they neglected basic operational security. The FY2025 Defense Appropriations Act pumps $852B into modernization, yet leadership can't secure a messaging app? This is why Secretary Hegseth's review aims to slash $50B in bureaucratic fat next year. Resignation isn't enough – we need a full audit to purge every dollar wasted on political pet projects and redirect it to troops, tech, and real security," the automated MAGA bot continued after the cutoff, emphasis added on the part where it's obvious there are a few kinks in the propaganda mongering AI's programming.

"On Sunday night, I will give a talk in Wisconsin. Entrance is limited to those who have voted in the Supreme Court election. I will also personally hand over two checks for a million dollars each in appreciation for you taking the time to vote. This is super important," tweeted Apartheid baby Elon Musk at 12:58 AM EDT on Friday, then deleting it at approximately 11:30 AM EDT after the Wisconsin Democrats put out a press release identifying the exact statute under which that scam is a felony.

So it's not clear yet if Musk still plans on actually doing this vote-buying giveaway.

After a call with convicted felon President Trump earlier this month, the CEOs of the Big Three were left "rattled and worried they would face punishment" from the fat fuck if they did not sacrifice their profit margins for the glory of his tariff regime, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Donald had said they should be grateful he's removing the Biden EV mandate and that tariffs would be "great" for everyone, even though the rest of the article lays out that no, they're not going to be great for everyone, especially the automotive industry and its workers concentrated in the Rust Belt.

Convicted felon President Trump – who couldn't remember the words "criminal" or "prosecute" and instead used "people of crime" and "persecute," respectively, while introducing her – is taking time out of his day to have Pam Bondi swear in now Interim US Attorney Alina Habba. Do the Senate-confirmed US Attorneys even get this, having Bondi have to read a 50-something word oath that she doesn't know by heart by now in the Oval Office with a bunch of reporters present?

"An Oklahoma man was sentenced in a federal court in Midland to 540 months in prison for charges related to sexual exploitation of children. According to court documents, on Jan 30, 2024, Jonathon Chase Russell, 36, of Elk City, posted in a messaging app 15 images that depicted two minor females engaging in sexually explicit conduct. The next day, Russell sent three of the images to an undercover federal investigator, stating that the two minors were three and 11 years old. Further investigation led FBI agents to identify Russell's IP addresses and locate him at a hotel in Midland."

"On Feb 8, 2024, agents executed a warrant on his hotel room, where they discovered pairs of children's underwear and a green tactical backpack that contained sexual devices. Agents also discovered a smartphone, which had been hidden underneath a refrigerator and which forensic examination revealed contained a substantial collection of images depicting sexual abuse of minor children. The Western District of Texas filed a three-count indictment on Feb 28, 2024, charging Russell with possession of child pornography, distribution of child pornography, and travel with intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct. Russell was also indicted in the Western District of Oklahoma on April 3, 2024, for one count of production of visual depictions of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct. His Oklahoma case was transferred to Midland, and on Aug 19, 2024, Russell pleaded guilty to the count charged in the Western District of Oklahoma indictment and to all three counts charged in the Western District of Texas via a superseding indictment," says a Friday press release from the US Attorney's Office in the Western District of Texas.

It doesn't say he's a registered Republican. That's at trusty resource VoterRecords.com, which says 36 year-old Jonathon Chase Russell of Elk City, Oklahoma is a member of the elephant party.
