Free message: While you pay more at the pump, the degenerate clown regime spent billions indulging its taste for luxury, including $2 million on Alaskan king crab and millions more on lobster tail.

We’re entering an even more dangerous moment as the stupidity of this war becomes undeniable even to its supporters, who realize they’re about to be revealed as morons yet again and are desperate to turn this into something they can spin as a win. Their only option is escalation.

The key schism in journalism continues to be between people who, contrary to every fact pattern of the past half century, treat Trump words as if they are somehow adjacent to reality and those who treat Trump as the sewer of ignorance, lies, bigotry and degeneracy that he has always been.

β€œKuwait, Iraq, and the UAE are shutting off wells as storage tanks overflow. Once these wells go dark, they cannot simply be flipped back on, creating a looming supply crater that would create a cascading effect on the global economy.”

Trump did not announce a U.S. policy then walk it back. That is not what happened, and media presenting it that way does a disservice.

Trump said words he thought might appeal to his audience in the moment, with no connection to actual policy, then did that again with a different question/asker.

This level of incoherence about things that matter would generate a call for removal in every other major institution in the Western world other than the American Presidency.

This will be useful evidence when we are hit by the terrorist strike that our degenerate clown security services were too distracted, addled and incompetent to prevent.

There was a time when truth and reconciliation held a vague appeal. But it’s hard to imagine anything but truth and punishment could pull us out of this abyss.

Still crazy that the president’s lawyer spent two days with Ghislaine Maxwell, she β€œcleared” him of wrongdoing and was almost immediately transferred to a more pleasant prison and nobody in the administration will explain it and the media acts like two large dots are just impossible to connect.

Woman Says She Was Abused by Trump and Epstein

March 8, 2026 at 7:33 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 7 Comments

β€œA woman who claims she was abused as a minor by both Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump has given the FBI vivid accounts that include aspects of her life corroborated by the Charleston Post and Courier through public records.”

β€œThe accounts describe an early phase in the mid-1980s of potential criminal conduct by Epstein that involved sexual activities with minors on Hilton Head. The alleged victim told the FBI she was under constant pressure from him to recruit more girls there to β€˜come party’ with him and his β€˜disgusting’ older friends. The incidents almost always involved drugs and alcohol and turned violent with hair-pulling and beatings.”

β€œIn her account about Trump, she claimed that he forced her to commit a sex act on him sometime around 1984.”

I know that almost a decade after the Access Hollywood tape broke, we’re somehow just accustomed to our president being a sexual predator.

But it’s hard to exaggerate just how insane it is that credible stories of sexual assault and pedophilia by our president aren’t headline news everywhere.

Given the GOP’s fundamental corruption and full embrace of authoritarianism, Dems should jump on rare opportunities like this. Tillis has been targeting Miller for a while. That’s an invitation to pile on loudly and raise the price of retaining one of the biggest sickos in the administration.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.
