This is why we need a functioning immigration system, like we had before the felon’s first term, not why we need to defund immigration courts, not why we should halt asylum and refugee programs, not why we need to defund the border patrol like Republicans voted for.

The $20 million of taxpayer money used to go to the Super Bowl could have been spent hiring 400 border agents for an entire year! Or 100 immigration judges, either of which could make a noticeable positive difference. The $10 million spent on golf so far, another 200/50. The $1 million per military flight (instead of $8k per immigration flight) could have funded a thousand more border agents or 250 judges. That’s 1600 border agents or 400 judges not hired, not protecting the border, and every penny spent to pay for one man’s entertainment for 3 weeks. So much for eliminating waste or trying to fix the problem.
If doge was looking for waste or fraud, they would have hit the office of the president first, that is where the biggest wastes and frauds are.

Everything he complained about is a direct result of Republicans policy, not one bit from what Democrats voted for or implemented. Nothing the Republicans have done has helped stem the tide at all, except for destroying the economy which had many return home in 2020 for work. They voted against more border control, against better immigration courts, and against working with our neighbors instead of against them.
What keeps enticing immigrants from South America, and they’ve been 100% clear, open, and honest about it whenever they are asked, is Republicans politicians on TV every single day saying the US border is wide open, and that gets shown in their countries. Every time they say “open borders” 1000 immigrants say “woo hoo, let’s go!”.
*lies
*fail

Why is it that no one has noticed that the DOGE bags who are tasked with auditing the government’s budget and finding waste do not include a single accountant but instead are 6 inexperienced racist programmers (at least one an active Nazi they rehired).
That couldn’t be because eliminating waste isn’t the point, but stealing billions or trillions through digital theft and covering their tracks well is the point…no, never. Also has nothing to do with the plan to convert our national gold reserve to bitcoin coin.

Holy crap! Just to drive home the unbelievable incompetence of this administration, our eggs are up to $15 a dozen and rising (3 times their pre-felon cost), in Mexico, a dozen eggs is well under $2!
Expect all food to be similarly overpriced. Just because the tariffs were dropped (except from China) doesn’t mean the trade war is over…Mexico, Canada, and China have all curtailed their orders from the US severely without tariffs. Canada pulled all US alcohol off the shelves, and aren’t keen on putting it back.
Also, thousands were murdered because he suspended funding for experimental medical trials, meaning thousands are in the middle of treatments for deadly diseases which drives medical advancements, many with devices implanted, all of which were just abandoned to die.
And, eggs are so expensive that they are now being hijacked by the truckload, and RFK jr 1) skipped the transition meeting so has no clue what’s happening and 2) doesn’t believe in pandemics so has no plan to address bird flu or any other emerging disease or food shortage.
And we now know why Elon shut down USAID…not because they were wasteful or leftists, Ivanka used millions in USAID herself, they were investigating his Starlink contracts in Ukraine (like overcharging and how he shut them down at critical times to help Russia in the war), so had to close.
Also, he and his subordinate the felon rehired the active proud racist Nazi that quit when he was outed, because they both are Nazis themselves. Time for instigating that Indian hate he advocates against race traitor Vance and his brown family.

I'm Canadian, and many of us Canucks are mobilizing to fight this dumbass' trade war tooth and nail. We helped Trump & Biden to get Chinese EV out of our market. Tiktok out of gov't employees and many other policies besides, but we're getting f*ked by Trump yet to no gain for Americans. It's s shitshow.

My province's Conservative premier got caught in a hot mic moment saying he was "100% happy when Trump got elected but then Trump stabbed him in the back." I was like WTF did he expect?

Is Trump's second term a sort of Baptism by Fire for America's democracy? We're certainly get burned by the inferno south of the border.

Russia is playing videos of nude Melania doing soft core porn constantly on state TV to embarrass the felon. Maybe soon we can see the golden shower tapes.
China put a 15% tariff on US imports and blocked hundreds of billions in deliveries from port while stopping shipments of rare earth minerals and Xi is not taking the felon’s phone calls, we dropped all our tariffs for no gains, in fact 5000 Mexican troops left the border that Biden had secured, we lost around $2 trillion in net worth or more in two weeks, we destroyed international relations with both our neighbors (both of which are now considering BRICS and distancing themselves from America as much as possible), and we stated unambiguously that treaties and official agreements (like the felon’s own trade agreement) with the US aren’t worth the paper they’re written on and are discarded at any whim, so no more agreements, treaties, or being allied. Canada removed all US alcohol off their shelves, don’t expect it to return.
Eggs $15.
No company is hiring or expanding nationwide now, because they have no idea what insanity the felon will do next, what stupid tariffs they will have to contend with, what supply chains will be cut, or what allies will refuse deliveries.
Winning!

And…..the first article of impeachment has been filed. How long before a few Republicans grow a spine and stand up.

Inflation already exploding maybe double digits already. Suddenly maga says “inflation is patriotic”

Gas prices are spiking. Grocery prices spiking double digits, eggs $12! Stock market crashing. China’s international trade pact has gained a dozen (40) nations with all central and South America in talks while they consider trade war with America while switching from using the dollar to using the yuan.

Unemployment exploding unbelievably. Crops rotting in fields because there’s no one to harvest them. Hiring frozen.

Ukraine war still in full effect, with 6 more on the horizon thanks to threats.

We quit the WHO and closed our pandemic response team (again) and forced all public health agencies to stop communicating with the public right as bird flu is emerging as a pandemic.

Child pornographers, the biggest/most prolific drug dealer ever in America who assassinated his rivals, and over 1500 more violent cop killing thugs released from prison to reek havoc across America, many already rearrested for violent armed crimes, one got in a shootout with police and died.

Just 8 days in, and the nation is completely crumbling, the rule of law gone, the economy in freefall, a pandemic starting. The president is on vacation.

If you voted for this and you love America, you should eat your gun.

By decree, he has also claimed to have ended FEMA, saying states should take care of themselves, not each other. The south is doomed….California will just withhold federal taxes and pay for itself, and save tens of billions of dollars per year that way, Louisiana alone will be $10 billion per year in the hole or more. All southern states are “takers” from the fed… Enjoy.

Eggs are $9 already and skyrocketing and he completely abandoned the promise to lower grocery prices, now says it’s impossible.

When told his policies are already crashing the economy on live TV by Hannity he answered “I don’t care”.

We will be in a depression this summer, and a real military invasion by Xmas (unless he hands Alaska to Russia and Hawaii to China).

His first plan to stop the Ukraine war….tell Putin he is planning tariffs and sanctions on anything Russia sells the U.S. (clearly not knowing they’ve been in effect for years already, and that Russia hasn’t sold anything to the US in years).

Pardoned more terrorists including those who pleaded guilty to treason/sedition and violence against police.
Some were re-arrested for more violent felonies they committed under a day after release. He invited these convicted anti American criminal thugs to the Whitehouse.
This is exactly what he did in 2020 in Afghanistan before handing the country to the criminal terrorist Taliban (yes, he even invited Taliban leaders to Camp David and the Whitehouse)…a group he seems to look up to. Thank goodness some judges refuse to dismiss with prejudice so they can be retried if law and order ever return to America….unlikely.

Once again, he already dismantled our pandemic response team right as bird flu is emerging in America, and decreed our health agencies cannot make any statements or recommendations but must keep silent and useless. Buy PPE!

His plans to deport every undocumented alien are estimated to cost multiple trillions per year directly just to try and cost the economy up to another $10 trillion per year in lost production…absolutely devastating and turning us into a third world nation overnight.

Is there peace in Ukraine yet? His new stated plan is to ask President Xi of China who is supplying Russia with military equipment and ammo to solve it for him. Russia is publicly mocking him and Smelania (by broadcasting her soft core porn constantly), laughing at his “threats” and giddy at their luck that Biden is gone and their cucked boy is back.

Shocker, these decrees are all directly from project 2025, written by the project 2025 committees, and many Trump doesn’t know what he’s signing since he wasn’t involved in drafting the orders….exactly as we knew would happen.

UPDATE: Decree #1, ending birthright citizenship, shut down by a Republican judge with a hilarious rebuke.

Also fun, 75% of farm workers didn’t show up to work this week. Harvests are essentially cancelled. Prepare for double digit inflation at the grocery store in short order. $9 eggs is just a start.

At under 18 months I drew on my grandma’s new fancy wallpaper….the getting dragged into the other room and the spanking I got is my first memory.
My second memory was while our house was being built, so I was under 2, and I climbed out on the exposed beams above the atrium, about 35 ft up and 30ft out on 10” wide beams…my mom held it together until I toddler walked back to solid ground then lost her shit. I was trouble.

I love teppanyaki. Benihana (or now our local teppanyaki restaurant, no Benihana here) has been my birthday go to since I was 6.

My dad liked to play “kill the kid” where if he caught me walking in the road he would drive at me at 15-20mph, I would jump on the hood, he would hit the breaks so I rolled off, then he would drive off. He said it was to see what the neighbors would do, but he did it at our ranch with no neighbors to see more than once, so…..
Call it a prank, inappropriate joking, fun between a dad and his weird kid, or serious child abuse, it sure beat how my brother treated me…but yes, it left multiple scars I can still see 45 years later…they’re not the only ones. Growing up in Texas in the 70s was dangerous.
Nobody ever said anything. I know some of the neighbors and my mother saw him do it. That’s way scarier and more scaring than the car coming at me.
(Side note- Just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t trying to get me!)

Looks like more and more people are losing their jobs to these sons of bees. There's a buzz going around it's really going to sting. In the long run they will probably bumble our way of life. Just be carefull with Every Breath You Take.

Oh no! Say it ain’t so!
Jr was caught repeatedly cheating on his fiancé Guilfoyle recently, and today they split up and she is being shipped off to Greece as our ambassador while he flaunts his new relationship with a hotter younger woman publicly in Palm Beach.
This is how they’re getting around NDAs now….offering high paid government positions of power (that they are unqualified for) to keep them quiet and under thumb.
Maga “loyalty”, maga “love”, it’s all just transactional.

*doublepromote a *quality and pertinent bit of information I wish more people learned in school.
Tariffs don’t stimulate economies, they stifle them and start trade wars that are always losers for consumers, they add a national sales tax to any tariffed imports, and the countries targeted always reciprocate making it hard or impossible to compete on the international markets and hurting American companies.
Our last Trump tariff/trade war with China was a horrific failure costing hundreds of billions of dollars, hurting American farmers (had to bail them out for $50 billion more and thousands closed shop), manufacturing, supply lines, and consumers…all for absolutely nothing gained.
Get ready for round 2 to feel like Glass Joe was replaced with Tyson…up to 200% tariffs across the board are going to absolutely destroy the economy in extremely short order.

Also Ben Stein’s birthday

"They Just Got Handed Fraudulent Books" - Ed Dowd Confirms Our Warning That Trump Is 'Inheriting A Turd Of An Economy'

Former Wall Street money manager Ed Dowd is a skillful financial analyst who said in May the economy was skidding. Now, Dowd predicts the economy is poised to “roll over” and soon.

"I have never seen such blatant manipulation of government statistics.

There is government spending and government hiring to paper over what is truly a bad economy for the average man. When I was asked prior to the election who do you think will win the election, I said Trump has already won, according to the economic statistics. That’s why he won. Bobby Kennedy helped along with Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, lots of people switching and what have you. What really got Trump in was the economy, the real economy, not the stock market.

It was not the ‘everything is hunky-dory’ pablum from the mainstream media.

The real economy has been rolling over, and we are just waiting for the financial markets to figure this out.

When they do, Trump is going to inherit a turd of a financial market crisis.

Government statistics will be updated, and it will show we started a recession sometime this year...

You have said for a while that Bidenomics failed America despite the amazing positive economic numbers that outpaced every other economic covid recovery in the world, and have predicted a crash since Jan 21 2021…
…but have been saying “ The next POTUS will be hit hard with failing economy, thanks to Bidinomics.” for only 6 days now, followed by ridiculous fake economic numbers like a fake loss of 28000 jobs in October when there was an addition of 12000 in reality (still the worst since Trump), and comparing that to pre-pandemic numbers because you need to forget Trump’s entire last year to make his numbers acceptable or superior….Biden only created 12000 this one month, his worst….how many did Trump LOSE in his worst month? He lost around 9 million in 2020, and 3.5 million over his presidency. THE WORST JOBS RECORD IN HISTORY. Even if you forget the over 9 million Trump lost in 2020, Biden still created 2 1/2 times as many jobs in 4 years at 14-16 million to Trump’s just over 6.
Then there’s GDP , which again is no contest unless you forget 2020.
Previously you have claimed only a Trump presidency would avert a recession/depression, and a Biden, then Harris administration was a guaranteed depression and market crash….exactly the same as you said in 2020. Now that he has a second term with full control of all 3 branches of government, you say of course he can’t avert a depression and the economy will do a full 180 from the consistent positive growth numbers under Biden and when he takes over it will crash fast, but it will be Biden’s fault. I’m not surprised even a little. You never once have accepted reality or a whit of responsibility.
Reality is the economy crashed badly under Trump and the debt ballooned, the worst economic crash in our lifetimes by far with most jobs lost and biggest deficit and a million dead, and rebounded under Biden with half the added debt despite being handed the already crashed and sinking fast economy. Now Trump gets a second shot with a healthy economy and numbers trending up, I bet he turns it around again.

It seems you agree, he’s going to tank the currently very healthy economy and put us in a depression, you just want to blame someone else who is not in charge when it happens.
