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 |
Anne Frank Diary Quote-January 13, 1943-"Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes.........Families are torn apart; men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared."
02.04.26-MTG Finally says something sane: “People watching Fox News, every day, 24/7 with their volume turned all the way up in their living room and it’s so loud that you can’t hear anything else? Those are the baby boomers and God bless them, those are my parents’ generation. 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.”

This Disgusting Piece of Human Garbage is a Stain on Our Country.
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.
A better, decent man would have said to Machado-you earned it, you keep it.

Last year 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.”

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.

Does Trump have a conscience? Maybe that that explains everything.

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.
To understand how the seeds for the Nazi movement were planted In the United States prior to WWII, read this book, a #1 NYT best seller: Prequel. You will then see the similarities between then and now.

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.

For Christians: Revelation 13:3 states that one of the heads of the beast appeared to be mortally wounded, but the mortal wound was healed, leading the whole world to marvel and follow the beast. This verse is often interpreted symbolically, suggesting that the healing of the beast's wound signifies a powerful figure, possibly the Antichrist, who gains admiration and influence over the people. The imagery reflects themes of deception and the allure of evil, as the world unites in following the beast due to this miraculous healing.

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. 06.12.26-WHY DON'T THESE PEOPLE SPEAK OUT EARLIER?-OH,I KNOW-THEY ARE COWARDS-Sen. John Cornyn is leaving the Senate, but he's not going quietly. In his first in-depth interview since losing his Texas primary to President Trump-backed Ken Paxton, the longtime Republican senator tells the New York Times that Trump is steering the party toward a midterm "disaster" in November that could make the president's final two years in office "the most miserable two years of his life." Cornyn, who says Trump threw him under the bus despite a near-perfect pro-Trump voting record, argues the president demands "slavish" loyalty that clashes with the Senate's role as a check on executive power. Freed from reelection pressures, Cornyn says he and other lame-duck Republicans now have "a little more freedom, and certainly leverage." "As the president told President Zelensky when he was in his office a year or so ago—he said, 'You don't have any cards.' Well, we've got some cards to play," Cornyn says. He's already targeting a Justice Department deal that shields Trump and his family from certain IRS scrutiny, calling it "a terrible mistake" and insisting the president "be treated like everybody else." Cornyn says he thinks it's "going to be a pretty bumpy ride for the next seven months. (from Newser) 06.11.26-COVER-UP-Panicked Trump Aides Met Without Him To Try To Clean Up Epstein Mess: NYT-The controversy over files related to Jeffrey Epstein consumed the Trump administration at the highest levels and caused rifts between top officials to a greater extent than previously shared, according to reporting by the New York Times. "In their public statements, Trump’s advisers were full of bravado, dismissing the crisis. In reality, it was consuming the highest ranks of the administration as no issue had for the president’s team since the Russia investigation in his first term. His aides were determined to keep their rising sense of panic out of public view," they wrote. A summary of their reporting includes scenes from the Situation Room complex, a bunker normally intended for high-level national security and classified matters, and without Trump in attendance. While the president preferred that all files be buried, Vance insisted on releasing everything, even unsubstantiated material about Trump, at once to get ahead of congressional pressure. (edited excerpt from HuffPost) 06.10.26-HAVE THIS MANY PEOPLE EVER ACTUALLY HATED A PRESIDENT?-Trump faced merciless booing at the Knicks game Monday night, and Fox News figures quickly recognized how perilous this is. As Media Matters details, Fox personalties and on-air chyrons spun madly in response. They absurdly portrayed the reception as much more “mixed,” implied the booing was inspired by something other than Trump, and even claimed there was much cheering for him. One Fox figure actually insisted Trump had the support of “half the stadium.” This comes as his polls just nosedived again: A new YouGov poll has Trump’s approval on the economy and inflation in the twenties. And fresh data from The Argument shows Trump deeply underwater in numerous red states with competitive Senate races. He continues to slide in the polling averages too. (from The New Republic) 06.09.26-TRUTH HURTS-CNN conservative commentator S.E. Cupp blasted Trump for storming out of an interview with NBC News’ Kristen Welker, calling the president’s behavior “gross” and suggesting it happened because he “doesn’t want press, he wants propaganda.” Trump abruptly ended the interview after Welker repeatedly challenged him over his false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him. Discussing the moment anchor Erin Burnett suggested there was “something visceral” and “unsettling” about Trump’s reaction and that he “either wanted that to go out that way or he truly lost control of his anger and frustration.” Cupp responded: “I don’t think he intended this. I think he got angry.” Trump “talks about election fraud all the time,” she noted, but said it’s “not often he’s sitting across from someone in sort of a captive environment where someone says, ‘Prove it. You’ve not proved this. You’ve sent Republicans out on witch hunts in all 50 states; 63 federal courts have thrown out allegations of voter fraud. You have not proven it.’” She continued, “What does he say to that? He can’t prove it. So he’s got to go to the greatest hits of the press is corrupt.” (from HuffPost) 06.08.26-TROUBLE IS-HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HUMILIATION-Trump is desperately trying to salvage his gala commemorating America’s 250th anniversary after many celebrities pulled out. He let out a weird tirade insisting that he is telling them not to come, and also announced a paltry set of acts that’s downright humiliating. This comes after he seethed that he didn’t need other musical acts because he himself will be performing. Also, he’s bigger than Elvis! Trump’s plans drew savage mockery from MAGA influencer Matt Walsh, who ridiculed Trump’s organizers for inviting “washed up geriatric one hit wonders.” Walsh added cuttingly that this will now be a rally where “Trump will talk about himself for 90 minutes.” (from The New Republic) 06.07.26-BEHAVIOR FROM A PERSON WITH NO CONSCIENCE-An investigation is needed to understand just how dangerous Trump is not only on domestic policy, but also on global affairs. As president of the United States, Trump has consistently shown disregard and contempt for the separation of powers, imposing tariffs, ignoring the Constitution, starting wars, and claiming budgetary control not authorized for a president. His conduct has been so brazen that even the US Supreme Court, which has shown a mystifying level of solicitude toward Trump, smacked his hands in the tariffs case. As Chief Justice John Roberts made clear in the court’s ruling, the “power to impose tariffs” has been vested with Congress for over 200 years. However, neither time and tradition nor orderly governing appear to mean very much to a president who prioritizes corruption and cruelty over human rights, and war over diplomacy. (lightly edited excerpts from The Nation) 06.06.26-TRUMP DOES NOT CARE-Former Trump White House official Sarah Matthews on Thursday said it’s actually “funny” how out-of-touch Trump is right now, and he doesn’t realize it. On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” the former deputy White House press secretary-turned-Trump critic warned that Republicans are “definitely going to lose the House” in the 2026 midterms and there is now a “growing possibility” that they could lose control of the Senate as well. “Which is something I wouldn’t have said six months ago,” she admitted. Matthews pointed to a growing disconnect between Trump and voters. “Obviously, we’ve seen Trump’s unpopularity just continue to grow because of things like his war of choice with Iran, rising gas prices, him failing to bring down grocery prices like he said he would,” she said. (from HuffPost) 06.04.26-FIGHT INJUSTICE-YOU CAN HELP DAILY KOS HERE last year, Trump's Department of Justice came after Daily Kos. At the time, we couldn’t explain what was happening. A gag order prevented it. Now we can: Trump’s DOJ targeted one of our community members because they were critical of Trump—and demanded that Daily Kos turn over user data. How could Daily Kos remain a trusted space for political participation and community engagement if we simply handed user data over every time Trump’s DOJ demanded it without explanation? No way in hell were we going to normalize that. This time last year we were staring at massive legal costs, possible search warrants, growing staff anxiety, and a DOJ clearly trying to intimidate us into submission. We were under attack. They were counting on fear doing the work for them. They assumed most organizations would comply quietly rather than endure the cost, pressure, and uncertainty of a legal fight. Send a subpoena. Threaten search warrants and public raids. Wrap everything in national security language. That’s how authoritarian systems function—not through constant dramatic displays of force, but by making examples out of a few targets so everyone else learns to preemptively comply. But with us, they picked the wrong target. There was no way we were going to stay quiet, back down, and cave to Trump. That's the power of independent media, and we definitely could not have done this without community support. You rallied and helped raise money to kick-start our legal fund. After they saw our willingness to fight, Trump's DOJ quietly backed down and dropped the matter entirely. (from Daily KOS) 06.03.26-THE SECRET POLICE ARE COMING-Trump just named William Pulte as acting director of national intelligence, replacing the outgoing Tulsi Gabbard. Pulte is best known for abusing his administration position to ransack the mortages of Trump’s enemies for fake pretexts to get them prosecuted and jailed. University of Michigan law professor Leah Litman argues that the office of DNI could be put to even more nefarious and “terrifying” use. Indeed, GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune suggested it may produce a “weaponized” DNI, a striking admission of serious danger ahead. Senator Tom Cotton curtly refused to share his opinion of the choice. And other GOP senators said Pulte is unqualified for the job. Given the DNI’s power, these objections reveal visible consternation. Indeed, MAGA figures fully expect Pulte to be turned loose on the left. Litman discusses what a “weaponized” national security state could look like under Pulte and ponders whether the rule of law can survive this presidency. Listen to this episode here. A transcript is here. (from The New Republic) 06.02.2026-THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS IGNORING THIS TRAVESTY-The Trump administration is trampling on the already limited legal protections available to immigrants. “I need the world to understand that what we’re witnessing right now is unprecedented and deeply disturbing,” one legal service provider told the Vera Institute of Justice. “I have never seen such aggressive, dehumanizing measures taken against migrants.” Attorneys interviewed by Vera report that clients are being detained and transferred thousands of miles away from their families to detention centers known for human rights abuses. Even people with valid legal status have been left to suffer in detention for weeks after being detained in indiscriminate ICE raids. The consequences of detention are severe. Whole communities are being traumatized as loved ones disappear into ICE’s shadowy network of prisons, jails, and privately run facilities where immigrants experience widespread abuse. (from Daily KO) 06.01.26-Former Attorney General Pam Bondi testified behind closed doors Friday about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. She effectively let it be known that Todd Blanche, now Former Attorney General Pam Bondi testified behind closed doors Friday about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. She effectively let it be known that Todd Blanche, now acting attorney general, has been responsible for this debacle, creating a new target for Democrats to pursue that will be fraught for Trump. Bondi also went mum on how Trump instructed her to handle the Epstein files, basically declining to back Trump’s spin that he was very pro-transparency, raising still more questions for Democrats to pursue. Meanwhile, Trump’s sinking approval, Iran debacle, ballroom, and slush fund are fracturing Trumpworld and the GOP: One Republican told The Atlantic that Trump has “lame-ducked himself.” We talked to historian Nicole Hemmer, author of several books about the right. We discuss why the Epstein scandal continues to fracture the MAGA movement, the deeper reasons for Trump’s weakening hold on the GOP, and why MAGA will go into deep turmoil once Trump passes from the scene. Listen to this episode here. A transcript is here. (from The New Republic) 05.31.26-TRUMP'S WAR OF DISTRACTION-Whether the United States and Iran agree on a supposedly impending ceasefire and begin negotiations, Trump has already lost, argues Michael A. Cohen. None of the administration’s prewar goals have been achieved, whether that’s stopping a nuclear weapons program, the existence of which lacked evidence; damaging its conventional military and missile capabilities; or changing the regime. More embarrassing is that one of the key U.S. objectives — reopening the Strait of Hormuz — is “only necessary because of the war itself,” he writes. (more at MSNOW) 05.30.26-MAGA COWARDS LET THIS HAPPEN-A longtime “60 Minutes” correspondent has no doubt about what led to the behind-the-scenes tumult and growing list of staff departures at the flagship news program. CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss announced this week that “60 Minutes” executive producer Tanya Simon would be replaced by tech journalist and filmmaker Nick Bilton. Executive producer Draggan Mihailovich and correspondents Cecilia Vega and Sharyn Alfonsi were also ousted from the program. Speaking to Status in an interview published Friday, former “60 Minutes” correspondent Steve Kroft acknowledged questioning the show’s direction in recent years, but said he couldn’t have predicted the current state of affairs. The ongoing shakeup, he said, is being driven by Trump. “Since I retired, I often wondered what would happen to ‘60 Minutes,’” said Kroft, who concluded his run at the program in 2019 after 30 seasons. “But I never expected it would be executed by the president of the United States.” (from HuffPost) 05.29.26-END THIS BARBARIC PRACTICE-Governor Newsom can end all death sentences in California with one signature. Add yours to the petition. As the federal administration seeks to expand the death penalty, the work to end capital punishment across the country has never been more urgent. In California, there is a very real possibility to move closer to ending the death penalty once and for all. As Newsom's final term comes to an end, we need your help to urge him to commute all death sentences in California. California has the largest death row in the Western Hemisphere with more than 550 people, which is roughly a quarter of the entire U.S. death row population. Commuting all death sentences would allow California to:
05.28.26-MAGA SHOULD BE LIVID-REMEMBER "NO NEW WARS?"-The number of U.S. casualties in the Iran war ticked higher on Tuesday, hours after American military forces conducted what U.S. Central Command called “self-defense strikes” in southern Iran. Official Pentagon statistics put the current casualty toll at 423, an increase of three wounded from the War Department’s last official tally issued on Friday. The increase in casualties came as Iran’s supreme leader said the war had exposed the vulnerability of U.S. military bases. The increase in casualties came as Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei said in a written statement that the war had exposed the vulnerability of U.S. military bases across the Middle East and as Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps threatened to respond to any U.S. strikes. (from The Intercept) 05.27.26-WE NEED MORE OF THIS-If Democrats want a role model ahead of this year’s midterm elections, they could not do better than Analilia Mejía, the newest member of Congress. The winner of an April special election to fill a suburban New Jersey seat that party insiders thought would favor a centrist, Mejía, a former political director for Senator Bernie Sanders and the director of the New Jersey Working Families Alliance, ran as a progressive who was prepared to take on the “bosses and bullies in both parties to get things done.” After emerging as the victor in a crowded and complicated primary—in which she backed Medicare for All, guaranteed paid sick leave, and a moratorium on AI data centers; accurately described Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide; and declared that “it’s time to abolish ICE”—Mejía won the general election by a 20-point margin (more than double the margin that the district gave Kamala Harris in 2024). Mejía embraced her mandate by immediately proposing to raise the federal minimum wage to $25 an hour. That’s the sort of initiative Democrats need to take in a 2026 election cycle in which, by most accounts, the winds are at their back. (from The Nation) Click for older news of MAGA MAYHEM |
