I think it’s great to see people like Pete Buttigieg and Kelly being considered for VP. We’ve had so much chaos and nonsense with Trump and company that to see someone like Buttigieg who is educated, a road scholar, speak seven languages served in the military, is calm and articulate and smart… you put that up against Trump and Company who look like a bunch of Circus characters, he is a great choice. we have a few great choices. How refreshing is that after all this nonsense and politics?

The Big Cheat: How Donald Trump Fleeced America and Enriched Himself and His Family

Pulitzer Prize­–winning reporter and dean of Trumpologists David Cay Johnston reveals years of eye-popping financial misdeeds by Donald Trump and his family.
While the world watched Donald Trump’s presidency in horror or delight, few noticed that his lifelong grifting quietly continued. Less than forty minutes after taking the oath of office, Trump began turning the White House into a money machine for himself, his family, and his courtiers.

More than $1.7 billion flowed into Donald Trump’s bank accounts during his four years as president. Foreign governments rented out whole floors of his hotel five blocks from the White House while lobbyists conducted business in the hotel’s restaurants. Payday lenders and other trade groups moved their annual conventions to Trump golf resorts. And individual favor seekers joined his private Mar-a-Lago club with its $200,000 admission fee in hopes of getting a few minutes with the President. Despite earning more than $1 million every day he was in office, Trump left the White House as he arrived—hard up for cash. More than $400 million in debt comes due by 2024, and Trump still lacks the resources to pay it back.

The Big Cheat takes you on a guided tour of how money flowed in and out of Trump’s hundreds of enterprises, showing in simple terms how his family and courtiers used his presidency to enrich themselves, even putting national security at risk. Johnston details the four most recent years of the corruption that has defined the Trump family since 1885 and reveals the costs of Trump’s extravagant lifestyle for American taxpayers.

“You have the morals of an alley cat."

The debate that wasn't 06/28/2024

The debate that wasn’t

By the halfway point of tonight’s debate, it was clear that the headlines were going to be: “Biden is washed up. The party is going to look at replacing him. Democrats are doomed!” It was also clear what the impact of this debate was going to be on the election: none.

How can I say that? For one thing, I don’t live inside the cable news vortex, where people on TV spin everything that happens as a totally doomsday thing while speaking to you in an earnestly rehearsed stately voice so they can keep you tuned in for as many hours as possible. I don’t watch MSBNC or CNN. I don’t read the political news outlets that craft every article with the intent of getting quoted on MSNBC or CNN. And I don’t follow the Twitter pundits who craft every tweet with the intention of getting booked on MSNBC or CNN. Instead I try to pay attention to facts, logic, and the real world.

Biden has spent the past month gaining in the polls and taking a narrow overall lead. The cold hard reality is that if Biden had been at his finest tonight (he was instead plagued by a severe cold), he could have expanded his lead, but that didn’t happen. Instead this was a debate in which neither Biden nor Trump scored any real points.

More succinctly, there’s not a single person who went into this debate with one voting intention and came out of it with a different voting intention. There’s no one who’s going to say “Well I was going to vote for Biden in order to stop the evil unhinged Trump, but now that Biden has a cold, I no longer think stopping Trump is important.” Nor did anyone with questions about who to vote for come out of tonight’s debate with any answers.

In other words, nothing changed in the real world. Biden was ahead by a point or two in the polls before this debate? And zero votes were changed as a result of this debate? Okay, so Biden will still have the same slight lead coming out of the debate. It’s simple logic. It’s correct. And no amount of cable news fantasy land performance art is going to change the validity of what I just said.

Still, you just know that if five new polls come out over the weekend and Biden is ahead in four of them and Trump is only ahead in one of them, the entire media (including your “friends” at MSNBC) will latch solely onto that one poll that has Trump ahead, and hold it up as supposed proof that the debate hurt Biden. Remember, the political media decides what the story is going to be, based on whatever it thinks will have the most ratings impact, and then cherry picks things out of context in order to support what it’s already decided the story is going to be.

I’m telling you that, for all the endless hyperventilating you’re about to hear on MSNBC and CNN (and from the people on Twitter who are parroting MSNBC and CNN in the hope of getting booked for guest spots on MSNBC and CNN), the impact of this debate on the election will be zero. It’s not the outcome I wanted or hoped for. I was hoping Biden would use this debate to pull further ahead, and that didn’t happen. But to claim that this debate will hurt Biden is just… utter nonsense. And the people who are saying this on TV know better.

Remember when President Obama got blown out in the first debate in 2012? Everyone on TV spent a week putting on the defeatist performance art of a lifetime, and everyone at home stared at their screens for that week in a panicked haze. And then the impact of that debate on the election ended up being zero. Biden did better tonight, in comparison to his opponent, than Obama did in 2012. It didn’t matter then and it won’t matter now.

The debate that wasn't ..

Never Trump. And never again will I vote for the anti-American Republicans who are supporting Donald Trump. Country first, people, not party, not personal agendas. Country first. Shame on those who are putting party or their personal political careers ahead of country.
These leaders took an oath to be loyal to our country, not to some man and not to their own self-serving agendas .

Come on America, it’s time to stop ignoring or excusing the chaos, the lies, the felony convictions , the hidden top-secret documents.
Donald Trump found liable for s*xual assault , the felony conviction for cheating on his business records, the vulgar behavior testimony of Trump having a no condom s*x fling with a p**n star while his wife was home pregnant with his baby, the disrespect of a man who has a long-term affair with a Pl***oy bunny (Karen McDougall, ) as his wife just gave birth to their little baby . Amen, who tried to steal an election out from underneath us, and currently has a criminal trial awaiting him for that. He has another criminal trial awaiting him for stealing top-secret documents . he will try to get it. It looks like some of his enabler may try to help him do that .
This is who the MAGA party is. Ron DeSantis is going along with it, willing to kiss the ring and bow down to the man who insulted him, called him names, made fun of his wife, threatened and bullied him, and Ron Santis is so weak that he caved and decided to support Donald Trump for President after all.
This is not a man of character or conviction. This is a Republican leader who is anti-American and who only represents half of the American people, as the other half are disregarded and bullied and threatened that they will have consequences. And for what? For a grand jury and investigators and prosecutors and a jury of his peers all agree that Donald Trump committed crime? They are going to get revenge for that? He has more trials pending. Does that mean they’re gonna go after those judges, those grand jurors, those investigators and prosecutors and jury of his peers? Will they all become targets too. Oh, that’s right, they already are they get death threats, harassment, fired from their jobs. Ill because they stood up to this man/ mob boss and his crimes.
If Rhonda Santos and other Republicans want to keep up with this anti-American sentiment of supporting this convicted felon, who they know exactly who he is, then they lose a lot more than they think. They lose my vote.
Voting all Democrat this time. Voting against MAGA, provided the corrupt Republicans don’t figure out a way to try to steal our votes again like Donald Trump and Company did in Georgia, as they currently are scheming to not certify the election that hasn’t even happened yet. In Georgia, they have lawyers ready to go right now , today, two be ready to go on election day and claim that the election was stolen, even if Donald Trump wins. Because they need the message to be that the election is being stolen so they can keep changing all of the laws. Ron DeSantis is part of these schemes as well in Florida, even though their Republicans have a very good chance of winning, they are still going to repress and try to limit Mail and voting and other schemes.
They are trying to steal our democracy for their own self serving agenda .
Voting for Biden because we have to, there is no other choice. we have to protect our ability to vote freely in America without these common men trying to steal it from us.
Democrats better win this one, are we may very well lose our democracy to the schemers in leadership roles and the conmen, and the felines, who will all be pardoned.
Get your act together, America , Vote! And vote all blue this time 🇺🇸

TikTok · Americangirl 06/18/2024

What will you tell your kids?
Tell us Governor Ron DeSantis are you going to tell your kids that this is what you support, that this is who you are?

This for Republican will be voting ALL Democrat this election. we have to send a message to the Republicans that if they are going to support MAGA, they are going to lose us.
We cannot have an authoritarian wannabe. We cannot have a divider like Trump to be our leader, to guide us into the darkness and push us into division and further chaos.
Donald Trump is a convicted felon, a twice impeached felon who is now not even allowed to travel to several countries in the world, or to own a gun , or to be in the presence of any other felons, including his January 6 rioters that he promises to pardon. Donald Trump can’t even own a gun and is not even allowed to vote.
Donald Trump has more pending more pending criminal trials for crimes and charges for trying to steal our election out from underneath us in Georgia another criminal trial, for stealing top-secret classified documents and refusing to give them back, and showing documents to other people that we weren’t ever supposed to see them!
This is who is being offered up as the leader of the free world?
Ron DeSantis is giving this con man and convicted felon his endorsement? What happened to you, Ron? Why would you sell your own country like that? Why would you actually want to give your children a future under a convicted felon and known s*xual assault man who tried to steal an election?
Sorry, Ron… you better check yourself because you were either clueless or getting some very bad advice. The path that you were on is destructive, and history will not remember you well so you better turn it around while you still have a chance.
We are voting ALL Democrat this time.
Let’s go, America … let’s both these mega anti-Americans out! We need good Republicans and good Democrats on both sides in Congress. They keep each other in check but the clowns and the flamethrowers and the convicted felons have taken over and are creating all the noise right now. Don’t vote in this chaos. Don’t vote a dictator wannabe.. don’t support any Republican who supports him, including Ron DeSantis 2024  who had an opportunity for a future, but is throwing it away for what may have short term benefits for him, but history will not remember Ron DeSantis well.
This former Republican family is voting all Democrat .
Country is first before party . The anti-American MAGA that has infected. Our country has to be voted out..
Anyone that supports them has to be voted out to .
Country First🇺🇸

Never Trump. And never again will I vote for the anti-American Republicans who are supporting Donald Trump. Country first, people, not party,  not personal agendas. Country first. Shame on you, Governor Ron DeSantis for putting yourself and your political career ahead of what is right. You know darn good and well the Donald Trump is a coward and a con. And the fact that you want to go along with him shows how anti-American YOU are. Do your job and represent this country or get out of the way and let others do it who will!
You have no right to govern for only half of the people your job is to govern for all of us so do your job and quit catering and pandering to Donald Trump !

This former Republican is voting ALL Democrat this time, and send a message to Maga that we want to purge them out of our leadership positions. Let them go slither back under a rock and wear their white pointy hats and hide again because they are way too comfortable being out in the open showing exactly who they are, anti-American racist who support a dictator wannabe.

Get it together , America, and let’s get MAGA out, put the Democrats in this time, and then hold their feet to the fire too. It is the only way to purge this nonsense going on in our country, and these politicians that are intentionally trying to divide us.
Did they ever hear of, United We Stand, Divided We Fall?

Vote out those who divide, those that excuse the 1/6 riot, those that cover up for the disgraced-twice impeached- found liable for s*xual assault-womanizer-attempted election stealer-
now convicted felon, who is not even allowed to go visit several countries now because of his felony, or Ona gun, or hang out with his conspirators like Steve Bannon, and the January 6 felons, and all of his other felon buddies because convicted felons aren’t allowed to hang out with each other.
This is not the leader we can have to show our children and the world that this is who we represent! Come on America, get it together and let’s purge the MAGA nonsense. We are better than this! we have good leaders on both sides, but these cons are drowning them out with their noise and chaos.
Rise up. Vote all blue. Put your country first, not some human. Not these con men.
Biden has my vote🇺🇸

This video is getting a lot of attention ( over 50k likes) that shows what some of our neighbors in other countries think of DTrump.

Yes, It matters to the entire world who the US president is because we are the major leader in the world.
It also matters who Donald Trump’s supporters and followers are too, like Ron Desantis because he has flip-flopped and decided to go ahead and support the former president, convicted felon, twice impeached, found liable for s*xual assault, con man who now cannot visit several countries due to his felony, cannot own a gun because of his felony, cannot run our country because of so much more than just this felony, and we still have several cases to go for his criminal acts! And Ron DeSantis wants to say “yes”to all of this?
Sorry, Ron DeSantis, if you were going to enable and excuse and defend a man found liable for s*xual assault among many other issues like a felony for being a man that means we can’t trust you either. You are the company you keep.
We need to kick all things MAGA to the curb.
For this election, we are voting ALL blue because this former Republican knows that we need to send a message to my Former party that we will not accept the MAGA corruption.
Hey, Governor Ron DeSantis, be part of the solution or be part of the problem.

My vote goes to Joe Biden and the Democrats running for Congress this time. 
We will hold their feet to the fire this time too… no enabling and defending and covering up for anyone like the Republicans are doing now for Donald Trump. What a bunch of cowards and anti-Americans they are to kiss his ring and cater to him. Shame on you,Floridians for the impeachment of Ron DeSantis

Trump “accused” of influencing trial testimonies: New report suggests he financially “rewarded” multiple witnesses in the criminal cases - NewsBreak 06/11/2024

Dear Republicans, What do you think about witnesses getting paid for their testimony, if they help the former president in his criminal trials?
What kind of response do we have , if a politician we support is doing some illegal or shady?
Do you approve of paying witnesses for testimony and defend the payoffs? , Or, do you silently approve of illegal /shady actions by ignoring and enabling it that way?
Or, do you object to the immoral or illegal actions and stand for the rule of law by voicing your concerns?
Here is a report on witness payoff:

Trump “accused” of influencing trial testimonies: New report suggests he financially “rewarded” multiple witnesses in the criminal cases

According to investigative reporting by ProPublica, nine witnesses received substantial financial benefits from Trump’s media company, campaign, and other business endeavors. These payouts, promotions, and other benefits were allegedly provided at crucial moments during Trump’s legal proceedings, raising suspicions of possible witness tampering.

One example is Boris Epshteyn, an attorney and investment banker involved in Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Epshteyn testified before a Georgia grand jury that indicted Trump on election interference charges and was later interviewed by the federal special counsel investigating Trump.
Records show that Epshteyn received an average of $26,000 monthly from his New Jersey-based business, Georgetown Advisory, between November 2022 and August 2023. These payments increased to $53,000 per month following Trump’s federal indictments. Trump officials claim that Epshteyn’s raise was due to increased workload, but the timing has raised eyebrows among white-collar defense lawyers.

Dan Scavino, Trump’s communications aide with firsthand access to the former president during the lead-up to the January 6 insurrection, also received significant financial perks. Shortly after the congressional probe into Trump’s conduct began, Scavino secured a consulting deal worth $240,000 annually. He was later held in contempt of court for ignoring a subpoena but avoided major repercussions.
Additionally, Scavino was appointed to the board of Trump’s media company and received a $4 million executive promissory note and a $600,000 retention bonus. The exact dates of these payments are unclear, but they were reportedly between receiving the subpoena and testifying.

Susie Wiles, a political consultant and one of Trump’s aides, received a $75,000 payout from the Trump campaign to her consulting firm after Trump’s indictment in Florida for improperly handling classified documents. Wiles also received a 20% raise that May. Trump officials attributed these payments to contract renegotiations. Additionally, Wiles’ daughter Caroline was hired by the Trump campaign at a starting salary of $222,000, making her the campaign’s fourth-highest-paid staffer. Caroline Wiles asserts that the employment offer was based on her qualifications.

The report also mentions significant payments to members of Trump’s legal team. Atlanta-based attorney Jennifer Little and white-collar defense attorney Eric Corcoran were compelled to testify before the grand jury regarding Trump’s handling of classified documents. Following her testimony, Little received her largest-ever payout of $218,000 from a Trump political action committee. Similarly, Corcoran’s firm received two payments totaling $786,000 after his March testimony, marking the highest single-day payment for Trump’s campaign.

Concerns about potential witness interference were also raised before Trump’s conviction in New York. Allen Weisselberg, former chief financial advisor to Trump, was not called as a witness by prosecutors in last month’s proceedings because Weisselberg is still due several payments from a $2 million severance package agreed upon with the Trump Organization. The severance agreement includes a nondisparagement clause and language blocking Weisselberg from voluntarily cooperating with prosecutors.

Real estate developer and close friend of the Trump family Steve Witkoff testified in favor of the real estate operations of the Trump Organization during the New York civil fraud trial last year. Witkoff testified, and two months later the Trump campaign paid his firm over $370,000 for using its private jet, a service for which the campaign had never before paid Witkoff.
Confirming that the jet had been utilized for multiple campaign-related flights, Trump aides told ProPublica that the campaign had only chosen to charter Witkoff’s aircraft for “availability, space, and convenience.”

The ProPublica report underscores the complexity of tracking financial benefits linked to Trump’s witnesses. While campaign committee payouts are publicly disclosed, records from Trump’s private businesses remain largely inaccessible, making it challenging to fully understand the scope of potential financial rewards for other witnesses and allies. As Trump’s legal battles continue, these revelations are likely to add further scrutiny and controversy to his already tumultuous post-presidency.

Do you see any similarities?
If you don’t think that the MAGA crowd ( including DeSantis) doesn’t want to dismantle our Institutions and Constitution, you are not paying attention! It is happening now, just as Steve Bannon said they planned it on his talk show years ago.
Law and Order in general is currently under attack by MAGA.

A Brief History of How Adolf Hi**er Rose to Power:
Adolf Hi**er was born in Austria in 1889 and moved to Germany early in life.
He joined the German Workers' Party, which eventually became the N**i Party. Through his charisma and ability to stir up nationalistic fervor, Hi**er quickly rose through the party ranks.
After a failed coup attempt in 1923, Hi**er was imprisoned for treason. During his time in prison, he wrote the book, "Mein Kampf," outlining his vision for a racially pure Germany and blaming the Jews for the country's problems. This book gained popularity among many disillusioned Germans.
Upon his release, Hi**er capitalized on economic hardships and nationalistic sentiments. His promises of restoring Germany to its former glory and scapegoating minority groups resonated with many citizens desperate for change. Many Germans who were initially apathetic or uninvolved in politics were swayed by Hi**er's lies, propaganda, and promises of a better future. Those in power who could have stopped him were either complicit or underestimated the threat he posed.
Hi**er's rise to power was achieved through manipulative tactics and exploitation of societal vulnerabilities. By spreading misinformation and using propaganda, he deceived and manipulated the public, gaining their support. His ability to prey on the gullibility of the people allowed him to consolidate power and establish a dictatorship. The failure of those in authority to recognize his true danger further enabled this.

Read a couple of the ads Donald Trump is mailing out to his supporters ( see below) that is filled with of whining and outright lies, as the billionaire begs for money because he wants to use people as much as possible to pay off his s*xual assault victim the millions of dollars he owes her. The grifter will also use his supporters hard earned money to pay his personal legal fees for all of his dirty deeds, as he tries to escape responsibility and take on his financial obligations that he will put on the backs of his supporters. Can you imagine, feeling so sorry for a billionaire that you send him money? those four sad souls don’t even know how ridiculous they look, but it is their choice

Russian disinformation sites linked to former Florida deputy sheriff, research finds 06/02/2024

Russian disinformation sites linked to former Florida deputy sheriff, research finds

More than 150 fake local news websites pushing Russian propaganda to U.S. audiences are connected to John Mark Dougan, an American former law enforcement officer living in Moscow, according to a research report published Wednesday by NewsGuard, a firm that monitors misinformation.

The websites, with names like DC Weekly, New York News Daily and Boston Times, look similar to those of legitimate local news outlets and have already succeeded in spreading a number of false stories surrounding the war in Ukraine. Experts warn they could be used to launder disinformation about the 2024 election.

In an interview over WhatsApp, Dougan denied involvement with the websites. “Never heard of them,” he said
Dougan, a former Marine and police officer, fled his home in Florida in 2016 to evade criminal charges related to a massive doxxing campaign he was accused of launching against public officials and was given asylum by the Russian government. Most recently, Dougan has posed as a journalist in Ukraine’s Donbas region, testifying at Russian public hearings and making frequent appearances on Russian state TV.

He’s now part of a small club of Western expats who have become purveyors of English-language propaganda for Russia. Researchers and cybersecurity companies had previously linked Dougan to the sites. The NewsGuard report published Wednesday is the latest to implicate him in the fake news ring.

Academic research from Clemson University linked Dougan to the network of fake news websites last year after one of them was found to share an IP address with other sites he ran, including his personal website.

In an interview, Darren Linvill, co-director of the Watt Family Innovation Center Media Forensics Hub at Clemson, called Dougan “a tool of the broader Russian disinformation machine” whose websites “are just one of several mechanisms by which these narratives are distributed.”

Linvill noted the fake news websites had lately veered away from the narrow focus of undermining support for Ukraine. Recent fake articles include the false claims that the FBI wiretapped former President Donald Trump’s office at Mar-a-Lago, his estate in Florida, and that the CIA backed a Ukrainian plot to rig the election against Trump.

“There is no question we are beginning to see a shift in focus toward the U.S. election,” Linvill said.

Posing as local news, the sites host articles about crime, politics and sports, most of which seem to have been generated with artificial intelligence tools and are attributed to journalists who do not exist. Interspersed within the general news are articles that disparage the U.S., exalt Russia and spread disinformation about topics from the wars in Ukraine and Gaza to Covid vaccines.

Researchers say sites attributed to Dougan are marred with telltale signs of his signature, including early website registration records, IP addresses, similar image headers and layouts, being built with WordPress software, seemingly AI-generated prompts mistakenly left in copy and error messages at the ends of articles.

The reach of the campaigns varies. Some of the sites remained active for just weeks with little to no pickup in the wider media. But some fake news stories have gained traction, including several recent posts using forged documents that falsely claimed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was improperly using foreign aid to enrich himself. Last month, a story on the fake news site The London Crier said Zelenskyy had spent 20 million pounds on a mansion previously owned by King Charles III.

It followed a story posted to DC Weekly in November that falsely claimed Zelenskyy had used American aid money to buy two yachts.

Both rumors relied, as the network often does, on videos posted to YouTube by newly created accounts. A site like DC Weekly will publish fake news stories using videos of seemingly AI-generated “leaks” or examples of whistleblowing, and Russian influencers and bot networks will then spread those articles, according to the Clemson researchers. Ultimately, the fake articles are reported as fact by pro-Kremlin media outlets and, in some of the most successful cases, by Western politicos and pundits.

The rumor about Zelenskyy’s buying yachts was later promoted by Republican members of Congress, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Sen. JD Vance of Ohio.
