Regarding the $1,776 million slush fund:

Former chief of Capitol Police,JT Manger: “Trump will reward people who attacked the US Capitol & the police who did their best to protect Congress that day. People convicted of crimes they committed are traitors to our country and may now be rewarded by the president for the crimes they committed.

AND the list of people who get $ is NEVER made public? This is the most corrupt act by a president ever. Even before the money is put to "use". There is no overreacting to this. mdavis19881.substack.com/p/trump-to-p...

Unfortunately, in the US, robots will only guarantee an income for those that own them. Sharing this productivity would require empathy, or revolution. The rich, corporations, SCOTUS, Fox News and GOP will never allow the first. ICE will never allow the second.

The damage to scientific and medical research, the environment, relations with allies and trading partners, disaster preparedness, consumer safety, higher education, military leadership, civil rights, will take years to repair even in cases where that is possible www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/o...

Americans should be cleareyed about what the president is doing. He is taking their money and showering it on criminals. There Has Never Been an Example of Presidential Corruption Like This www.nytimes.com/2026/05/20/o...

Trump just sued his own government, settled with himself, and dropped $1.776 billion of taxpayer money into a slush fund to pay the violent J6 mob, himself and the MyPillow guy.

This gave me chills. Watch.

Trump plans to use this fund to “compensate “ the January 6 rioters www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced the birth of a baby girl in an Instagram post, saying her new daughter Viviana was “perfect and healthy.” What do you think? “My deepest condolences to that baby.” “Never let anyone tell you that you can’t be both a mother and a scourge"

"The Trump admin portrays antifa, a loose affiliation of anti-fascist people, as a coherent, terror threat. Now the White House is saying they are something like a transgender, anarchist SPECTRE supported by foreign nations—which nations, the report does not say www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

“How screwed are we” index. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

“We are Stuck with a president committed to policies that amount to national self-sabotage, a man driven by personal grievance and reckless promises to campaign contributors, devoid of any real concern for America’s long-term energy needs.” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/12/o...

Ironic, is it it? The states where legislators ONLY vote to gerrymander, they have no problems with the courts, but where voters actually vote in a plebiscite, for the same in Virginia, then the court shuts them down. it’s almost as if the plutocrats have decided to stop us all

And I for one would personally like to know if the President of the United States is one violent sneeze away from wandering into the Situation Room, confusing NATO with a Bennigan’s rewards program, and accidentally vaporizing Luxembourg while trying to butter a dinner roll with the TV remote. .

“And through all this, MAGA’s still out here chanting that he’s strong. Sharp. Powerful. Give me a break. He’s “powerful” the way a swamp cooler is powerful when it’s coughing out one last lukewarm fart” open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

When Trump & Republicans have done nothing to brag about, they fall back on the only tools in their toolkit: fear mongering, lying, fanning the flames of racism, finger pointing, spewing conspiracies, playing the victim, and lying about Joe Biden. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

"And donors will pay for it". Yeah, right "Senate GOP tucks $1B for Trump ballroom into border bill The security funding, tied to the White House East Wing project, is part of a $72 billion reconciliation package (so it can't be filibustered) late Monday by the GOP

Forget TACO Or Always Chickens out NACHO, Or Not A Chance Hormuz Opens Now we have CARNITAS he promised two dollars of gas and now he’s cut twice what he promised

Forget Taco and NACHO, we have CAR IT'S

Thank you, Jimmy Fallon “ Trump said the US will start escorting ships through the strait of Hormuz. it feels like a best case scenario when Trump starts an escort service"

Spankys's options Leave Iran, demonstrating the military is far less dominant than assumed. Or draw resources from theaters of vital interest, like Europe & East Asia. Or resort to extreme military options, leading to everlasting shame. So the US can lose its reputation, its friends, or its soul.
