Stephen Miller Is The New Republic’s 2025 Scoundrel of the Year. He was counting on a nation of haters. He was wrong. Since Trump can't think for himself, he has allowed this weasel to set policy for the horrible mistreatment of migrants. In my opinion, he is the shadow president, with the goal of creating a MAGA terror state. Update-Trump Advisers Quietly Turn on Stephen Miller as Brutal ICE Poll Hits |

I love so many of the baby boomers, but they are the most brainwashed generation because they eat that crap, like, they just eat it up all day long. They’re spoon-fed the propaganda on TV.”

01.18.26-“How is it that half of America looks at Trump and doesn’t find him morally repellent?” David Brooks asks. “He lies, cheats, steals, betrays, and behaves cruelly and corruptly, and more than 70 million Americans find him, at the very least, morally acceptable. Some even see him as heroic, admirable, and wonderful.” Many are lazy, naive, low information, apathetic voters who have no clue.

07.25-How did we get to this point?
Back in March, MSNBC brought you the crazy story of Sarah Inama, a history teacher in Idaho who decorated her sixth-grade classroom with inspirational posters. Inama displayed signs with messages such as “In This Room, Everyone Is Welcome, Important, Accepted, Respected, Encouraged, Valued, Equal.” The posters showcased motivational messages simply meant to tell students: Whoever you are, you belong here. It is the type of poster that a lot of us probably saw growing up in classrooms. And it really shouldn’t be controversial, but it was. Earlier this year, Inama shared that her school’s administration ordered her to take down the posters. She said officials told her the signs were in violation of district policy and that, in “today’s political environment, they’re considered a personal opinion.” (edited excerpt from MSNBC) Below is why Lady Liberty is weeping. These words now ring hollow! “G̶i̶v̶e̶ m̶e̶ y̶o̶u̶r̶ t̶i̶r̶e̶d̶, y̶o̶u̶r̶ p̶o̶o̶r̶, y̶o̶u̶r̶ h̶u̶d̶d̶l̶e̶d̶ m̶a̶s̶s̶e̶s̶ y̶e̶a̶r̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ t̶o̶ b̶r̶e̶a̶t̶h̶e̶ f̶r̶e̶e̶.

On June 14, 1946, just a little over a year after Hitler died, a new dark force came about. It would go on to poison minds, spread lies and cast a cloud of evil over America and the world.
That date is when Trump was born.
Does Trump need institutionalized help?. The classic definition of a sociopathic personality, is characterized by impaired empathy and remorse, along with bold, disinhibited, and egocentric traits.
Definition of Malignant Narcissism
Does Trump have a conscience? Maybe that that explains everything.
"My life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again."
Fact-Trump won less than 50% of the vote-That's no mandate!

Trump will forever be tied to the heartless and brutal separation of 5500 immigrant children from their parents, sent to who-knows-where. Some will never see their families again. The Trump administration did not keep records of the family members.
He has violated all The Seven Deadly Sins: (1) vainglory, or pride, (2) greed, or covetousness, (3) lust, or inordinate or illicit sexual desire, (4) envy, (5) gluttony, (6) wrath, or anger, and (7) sloth. and, laughs at the Golden Rule!
MAGA Believers: Does this sound familiar?
Adolf Hitler, in his book Mein Kampf, coined the term “big lie”. He asserted that “the great masses of the people… will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.” This concept refers to a propaganda technique where a known falsehood is stated and repeated as if it were self-evidently true. The goal is to sway public opinion by treating the lie as unquestionable, rather than critically examining it.
Here are the key points about the big lie:
Here are the key points about the big lie:
- Definition: A big lie involves spreading a falsehood so audacious that it seems unbelievable yet appeals to people’s prejudices. Hitler believed that people would accept such a lie if it aligned with their existing biases.
- Examples: Hitler’s use of antisemitism in Nazi propaganda blamed Jews (Now Immigrants?) for Germany’s problems. Other instances include blaming the ‘bourgeoisie’ for workers’ issues or demonizing political opponents.
- Technique: Repeat the lie consistently until it becomes accepted as truth. Present it in bland, matter-of-fact terms to make it more convincing. Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s propaganda minister, echoed this idea: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” He emphasized that the state must suppress dissent to maintain the lie’s influence1.

Why Did Trump Win?
The answer is the right-wing media. Today, the right-wing media—Fox News (and the entire News Corp.), Newsmax, One America News Network, the Sinclair network of radio and TV stations and newspapers, iHeart Media (formerly Clear Channel), the Bott Radio Network (Christian radio), Elon Musk’s X, the huge podcasts like Joe Rogan’s, and much more—sets the news agenda in this country. And they fed their audiences a diet of slanted and distorted information that made it possible for Trump to win.

Click for my stance on guns The U.K. essentially banned guns. Result: In 2019 Gun deaths 0.04 per 1000---U.S. 3.96 per 1000 The United States has one of the highest rates of gun deaths among developed countries. With more civilian-owned guns than people, the U.S. sees a significantly higher number of gun-related homicides, suicides, and accidental shootings annually. For example, in 2023, nearly 19,000 people died from firearm-related homicides, a statistic that starkly contrasts with much lower numbers in other high-income nations. |
STOP ANIMAL ABUSE
Every day in countries around the world, animals are fighting for their lives. They are enslaved, beaten, and kept in chains to make them perform for humans’ “entertainment”; they are mutilated and confined to tiny cages so that we can kill them and eat them; they are burned, blinded, poisoned, and cut up alive in the name of “science”; they are electrocuted, strangled, and skinned alive so that people can parade around in their coats; and worse. The abuse that animals suffer at human hands is heartb reaking, sickening, and infuriating. It’s even more so when we realize that the everyday choices we make—such as what we eat for lunch and the kind of shampoo we buy—may be directly supporting some of this abuse. But as hard as it is to think about, we can’t stop animals’ suffering if we simply look the other way and pretend it isn’t happening. peta.org |

For an informed look at current events read Heather Cox Richardson's comments. 03.09.26-WE NEED MORE JAKE TAPPERS-WHERE ARE THEY? CNN’s Jake Tapper this weekend issued a fierce riposte to Trump White House critics of his network’s reporting — critical or otherwise — on the war with Iran. He noted how Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had recently “bristled” at coverage of U.S. troops killed in the conflict and suggested they were only being reported on in a bid to make Trump “look bad.” Seven U.S. service members have now died. “This is not even remotely why we cover service members who are killed,” said Tapper, who noted such coverage has happened for decades, is not about making any president look bad, and “should be front page news.” “Let’s be clear, it is the news media’s responsibility to cover this war, not to cheer-lead for it,” he continued. “It is our responsibility to ask questions of government officials especially when the lives of American service members are on the line, especially when civilians abroad […] are being killed.” Tapper recalled how “not enough reporters” challenged George W. Bush’s administration as it marched toward the invasion of Iraq in 2003, arguing the Trump White House is now trying to use the “same tired playbook.” He concluded: “Guess what? We’re not gonna stop. Doesn’t matter how many times the propaganda campaign that accompanies any war is deployed against us. So, get used to it.” (from HuffPost) 03.08.26-THE DEFINITION OF IRONY-Trump made clear he wants to pick the next leader of Iran after he thrust the U.S. into a war with the country and killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. "Do you want to be involved in picking the next leader of Iran?" a reporter asked Trump on Air Force One on Saturday. "Yeah, well, because I don’t want to just come back every ten years," Trump said. "And mostly you’ll have presidents, mostly, that won’t do that, because they don’t get it." Trump added — without a hint of irony — that he wants to pick a ruler that won't drag their nation into a war. "But we don’t want to come back every five years or ten years and do this, so we want to pick a president that’s not leading their country into a war." (from HuffPost) 03.07.26-ALL OF THIS TO DEFLECT FROM THE EPSTEIN SCANDALS-America can’t afford Trump’s war with Iran for long. The U.S. economy right now is like the hero of an action movie in the last few minutes: bloodied, but resilient. After facing everything from stubborn inflation to sweeping global tariffs to a record-breaking government shutdown, America has somehow managed to avoid a recession and soldier on. The labor market, though, is showing bruises as U.S. employers reported cutting 92,000 jobs in February. But, as in an action movie, the economy is now up against its biggest foe yet: a costly war in Iran, a regional power in the Middle East that just happens to sit next to what is arguably the world’s most critical maritime energy choke-point. The blows are already coming. The war is costing the U.S. an estimated $1 billion a day, according to two congressional sources with knowledge of the matter. Oil prices are now forecast to go higher, while gas prices have already jumped to $3.32. It’s the highest price it has reached in either of Trump’s two terms. The situation is so in flux that gas prices are poised to climb higher than that after this article is published. The knock-on effects of increasingly expensive oil will be felt next. (from MSNOW) 03.06.26-SICKENING-SOMETHING ELSE FOR TRUMP TO SHRUG OFF AND SAY STUFF HAPPENS-U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed scores of children on Saturday but have not yet reached a final conclusion or completed their investigation, two U.S. officials told Reuters. Reuters was unable to determine more details about the investigation, including what evidence contributed to the tentative assessment, what type of munition was used, who was responsible or why the U.S. might have struck the school. In a separate analysis, The New York Times found the strike was likely part of a U.S. attack on an Iranian naval base located nearby the school. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday acknowledged the U.S. military was investigating the incident. (excerpt from HuffPost) 03.05.26-MEANWHILE AMERICANS ARE GETTING KILLED SO THAT HE CAN HAVE FUN-Trump Calls War With Iran 'Exciting Times,' Says U.S. Is Doing Well 'On The War-front.' He bragged about the "exciting times" the U.S. is facing after he thrust the country into a war with Iran. "Well thank you very much, these are exciting times," Trump said at a round-table with tech executives on Wednesday. "And I think you probably want to speak about war rather than this, but this is very important, this is very important." Trump said that on a scale of one to ten on a success scale, he would rate this escalating war with Iran "about a fifteen." "And we’re doing very well on the war-front, to put it mildly, I would say," Trump said. "Somebody said: 'On a scale of one to ten where would you rate [the war],' I said about a fifteen." (excerpt from HuffPost) 03.04.26-I TOLD YOU THIS WAS COMING-Troops are allegedly being told by military commanders that their mission in Iran is one of biblical proportions. Literally. They’re being told that operations underway now are part of “God’s plan” as foretold in the Book of Revelation — you know, the part where Armageddon kicks off with its rivers of blood, demonic horses and Jesus Christ’s return to earth? That part.The founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation told me he has received over a hundred complaints from service members situated in dozens of military installations who are terrified about this breakdown in the separation of church and state. It’s "destroying morale and unit cohesion,” one troop claimed, and the words aren’t the worst part. “It’s the fact that our commander feels as though he is fully supported and justified by the entire (combat unit’s name withheld) chain of command to inflict his Armageddon views of our attack on Iran on those of us beneath him,” they told MRFF. (excerpt from HuffPost newsletter) 03.01.26-I AM HAPPY TO SEE KHOMEINI GONE BUT WE HAVE A MAD MAN LOOSE ON THE WORLD-In his 2024 presidential campaign Trump promised voters that he would end wars, not start them. Over the past year, he has instead ordered military strikes in seven nations. His appetite for military intervention grows with the eating. Now he has ordered a new attack against the Islamic Republic of Iran, in cooperation with Israel, and it is much more extensive than the targeted bombing of nuclear facilities in June. Yet he started this war without explaining to the American people and the world why he was doing so. Nor has he involved Congress, which the Constitution grants the sole power to declare war. He instead posted a video at 2:30 a.m. Eastern on Saturday, shortly after bombing began, in which he said that Iran presented “imminent threats” and called for the overthrow of its government. His rationale is dubious, and making his case by video in the middle of the night is unacceptable. (excerpt from NYT) On Hiatus. 02.19.26-FROM THE ACLU-INHUMANE-3,800.That's at least how many children ICE has detained under the second Trump administration.Children ripped from their beds in the middle of the night. Torn away from their friends, classmates, communities. Held in horrifying conditions. Terrified and traumatized. The way this administration is treating the entire immigrant community – and anyone protesting these policies – is morally reprehensible. And the tactics they're using while terrorizing families are all too often illegal. We're in court to end ICE and Border Patrol's sweeping and illegal arrests of longtime residents, families, and asylum seekers. We've mobilized hundreds of thousands of supporters to contact Congress to demand an end to the inhumane detention conditions and to rein in these out-of-control operations. 02.18.26-PRESIDENT PREDATOR-Newly uncovered details in the Epstein files reveal that the FBI spoke with a victim who accused Trump of sexual assault, despite Attorney General Pam Bondi’s vehement denial that the Justice Department had any such evidence, as of last week.Agents apparently spoke with a victim of Epstein who also accused Trump of sexually and violently assaulting her. It is unclear what happened with the investigation, though the government deemed her to be a “credible accuser,” according to independent journalist Roger Sollenberger. A woman with identical biological details sued Epstein’s estate and won a settlement in 2021. The investigation into the accuser is made apparent on a page titled “prominent names” in an internal, 21-page slideshow cataloging the Justice Department’s various investigations into Epstein and his longtime criminal associate, Ghislaine Maxwell. Trump’s name is listed in the document, along with two allegations against the sitting president.“[REDACTED] stated Epstein introduced her to Trump who subsequently forced her head down to his exposed penis which she subsequently bit. In response, Trump punched her in the head and kicked her out,” reads the first entry, noting that the victim would have been between 13 and 15 years old and that the incident took place sometime between 1983 and 1985. But the second accusation against the president, which involves Trump agreeing with Epstein that a 14-year-old victim was a “good one,” carries a different kind of credibility inside the DOJ, since the person who provided the statement was also used as a key government witness to convict Maxwell, according to the files. “[REDACTED] remembered Epstein introduced her to Trump saying ‘This is a good one, huh’ and Trump responded ‘Yes’. (date range roughly 1984, [REDACTED] would have been 14),” the slide reads. Trump was mentioned more than 38,000 times in the latest batch of Epstein files, and was flagged in more than 5,300 files in the document cache. Yet the White House has continued to vehemently deny that Trump did anything wrong while he was close pals with the child sex trafficker—even as evidence emerges to the contrary. (from The New Republic) 02.17.25-DISGUSTING-White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt went full North Korea cult propagandist on Fox News, gushing that the ICE crackdown in Minneapolis has been a “resounding success.” Never mind that two Americans were murdered, violent civil conflict has reigned, and Trump’s approval has cratered. Leavitt also undercut her own spin by describing all arrested by ICE as “criminals” and insisting the operation is “targeted”—revealing she can’t tell the truth about its targeting of noncriminals because it’s so widely hated. She was further undermined by the shocking news that two ICE agents lied about an incident leading to the shooting of an immigrant, a reminder that this entire fiasco has been perpetually awash in lawless horror. (excerpt from The New Republic) 02.16.26-DEGRADING-MS NOW host Lawrence O’Donnell on Thursday excoriated Trump for appointing “the most incompetent, ignorant and amoral” officials in White House history and managing “to kill more people during peacetime” than every one of his predecessors. The “Last Word” host began with the administration announcing an end to its immigration crackdown in Minnesota, calling it a “humiliating retreat” and slamming Trump over his dearth of “basic human decency” and “comprehension of the Constitution.” O’Donnell then launched into a scorching monologue on Trump’s most polarizing Cabinet members and advisers, including former head of the DOGE Elon Musk and RFK Jr. “Today’s winner of the daily competition for most perverse thing said by a Trump Cabinet member — and these are the exact words — quote, ‘I’m not scared of a germ. You know, I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.’ " He then noted that it’s unfortunately “easier than it should be” to guess which Trump official said this, but nonetheless went on to play a clip from comedian Theo Von’s latest podcast episode — during which Kennedy voluntarily made the admission.
