I'm sure our resident Dump apologists will be along any second to explain to us how this is completely fine and not a threat to democracy at all.

Aaaaany second now.

Usually, if I stretch my imagination until it snaps, I can just about work out which bit of common knowledge Trump has just been exposed to for the first time and tried - and abysmally failed - to understand, and which he is now attempting to repeat. But I have to admit I am totally foxed by that. What on earth did someone try to explain to him, which he has completely misunderstood and regurgitated as that drivel?

If it's the 'litter boxes for children who identify as cats' story, the truth is more horrible and indicative of something that really is wrong with America. Some schools are putting cat litter in their active shooter preparation equipment incase any children can't hold their bladders while they hide and wait to find out if they're ever going home again.
 
Thanks to Trump and the Republicans for providing the Precedence of arresting obstructionist judges.
Alito and Thomas better resign before the next Administration takes power.

The FBI on Friday arrested a Wisconsin county judge on obstruction charges, accusing her of preventing the arrest of a man by immigration authorities during a federal law enforcement operation at her courthouse.

FBI Director Kash Patel said Milwaukee County Circuit judge Hannah Dugan "intentionally misdirected federal agents away" from an immigrant who is in the U.S. illegally and was set to be arrested.

Patel said that the man, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, was later arrested and is currently being detained.

Dugan was arrested at 8 a.m. on Friday at the courthouse where Dugan works, according to a federal law enforcement source. She was charged with two counts of obstruction and released from detention after making an initial appearance in federal court.

Trump claims '200' tariff deals, phone call with China's Xi in wide-ranging interview

President Trump told Time magazine trade negotiations would be "finished" in 3-4 weeks.

Trump claims '200' tariff deals, phone call with China's Xi in wide-ranging interview​

President Donald Trump, in a wide-ranging interview with Time magazine published Friday, claimed he's already "made 200 deals" on tariffs and said he's spoken with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

In the cover story, in which Trump's discussed his first 100 days in office, the president was asked about White House trade adviser Peter Navarros prediction of "90 deals in 90 days."

"Ive made 200 deals," Trump said. When asked to confirm that number, Trump said "100%."

Trump, though, would not elaborate on what countries he's solidified deals with or the terms. There are 195 countries in the world, and yet Trump is claiming to have made more trade deals than that. He's met with various foreign officials at the White House in recent weeks on tariffs and other economic issues, but had not yet announced any agreements.

"I would say, over the next three to four weeks, and we're finished, by the way," Trump told Time. "We'll be finished."

I guess he must have made deals with the penguins!

I guess that's why you never hear a tree say, "I've fallen, and I can't get up."

Trees can explode, though it's normally from the effects of their sap freezing in extreme cold or via direct lightning strikes. Extreme heat is becoming a factor though, because of global warming.

I wonder if the tame creatures of the Supreme Court will begin to think that's a dangerous precedent. Oh well, looks a bit odd, better keep an eye on it and see where it's going. Maybe next time. Or the time after that. Mustn't get prematurely concerned.

Trump says it was just a joke:

Trump: Pledge to end Ukraine war on first day in White House ‘said in jest’

President Trump, nearing the end of his first 100 days back in the White House, says his campaign pledge to end the war in Ukraine on Day 1 was not a serious promise.

In an interview with Time magazine, published Friday, Trump was asked about his claim that he could end the war immediately, and he blamed the media for the way it was perceived.


“Well, I said that figuratively, and I said that as an exaggeration, because to make a point, and you know, it gets, of course, by the fake news,” Trump told the outlet. “Obviously, people know that when I said that, it was said in jest, but it was also said that it will be ended.”

Asked why it’s taking so much time to come to a ceasefire agreement, Trump said he doesn’t think it’s been that long, citing that he has only been in office for three months.

“This war has been going on for three years. It’s a war that would have never happened if I was president,” Trump said. “It’s [former President] Biden’s war. It’s not my war. I have nothing to do with it.”

I am sensing you are not a fan? I've got super instincts for this kind of thing.

He has nothing to do with anything that puts him in a bad light, even the words coming out of his mouth. What a garbage human being he is, which is why maga morons adore him because that allows them to be garbage human beings as well.

Trump Claims Americans Won't Accept Taxing Millionaires, Despite Public Support

In a stunning display of detachment from public sentiment, President Trump recently claimed that taxing millionaires would not be “acceptable to the public.” This, despite the fact that polls consistently show overwhelming support for higher taxes on the wealthy.

In a stunning display of detachment from public sentiment, President Trump recently claimed that taxing millionaires would not be “acceptable to the public.” This, despite the fact that polls consistently show overwhelming support for higher taxes on the wealthy.

In an interview published Friday, Trump said that he liked the “concept” of raising taxes on the rich to fund his policy proposals. But he quickly followed up with the absurd claim that such a move might be politically dangerous. “I love, that. I actually love the concept,” Trump told Time Magazine. “But I don’t want it to be used against me politically, because I’ve seen people lose elections for less, especially with the fake news.”

Trump’s comments come amid rising frustration across the country, where many Americans feel the wealthy should pay their fair share. Yet, Trump’s response suggests a complete disconnect from the very public pressure he faces. “The concept is something that may not be acceptable to the public,” he said, as though the idea of millionaires paying more in taxes is somehow radical. In reality, most people agree that the rich should shoulder more of the burden, especially when the nation is struggling with inequality.

Like Augustus, he does not want to be a God-Emperor, but the people call for it so he has no choice but to bow to their will!
