It's MAGA's own speculation that the true intent behind the Dem's military video was to get the military to disobey "legal" orders from Trump that MAGA is angry about, even though that is not what the video said. Without assuming bad motives, nothing noteworthy really happened.

1/#DOGE experiment is over. Did we get anything more significant than some chaotic months, hundreds of thousands of children dying, and more gov spending? Federal spending is up almost $500 Billion vs. 2024. National debt has increased about $2 trillion since Trump took office.

Trump: "You say things sometimes in a campaign."

I don't think I'll ever understand why MAGA believes that Trump (1) tells the truth, and (2) is not a politician (is there anything more quintessentially politician than "you just say whatever you have to in a campaign"?)
Reporter: Stefanik has campaigned on calling Mamdani a jihadist. Do you think you’re standing next to a jihadist?

Trump: No… but she's out there campaigning. You say things sometimes in a campaign. You’d have to ask her about that. I met with a man who is a rational person.

1/I've never seen a President more openly hostile to free speech than Trump. My Substack article below includes some examples, & you never have to wait long for more examples. Yesterday, he suggested Democrats using free speech to encourage military to obey the law should be "punishable by death."
I wrote a Substack article re Free Speech. Analysis of certain actions of Biden, Trump, etc. that have been accused of suppressing free speech and violating the First Amendment. Whose actions do you think are worse violations of the First Amendment?

For context, did you notice the question Epstein is responding to here is specifically a question about Trump's "attitude towards women"?

To which he responds: "I have met some very bad people. None as bad as Trump. Not one decent cell in his body."

Video where I explain Trump's strategy for responding to the Epstein files, a strategy Trump laid out in 1998 for how a President should handle a scandal, incl. (1) don't admit anything, (2) play the victim, (3) accuse others of bias and wrongdoing. #Epstein

1/This is what weaponization of the government really looks like. I support holding anyone accountable Dem or GOP for any sexual abuse they were involved with. But I'm not okay with any President of either party trying to cover up or deflect from a story by weaponizing the government against others.

Fair enough, but someone should have a serious conversation with the Democratic strategists in charge of gathering oppo on Trump who never thought to check whether the Epstein estate might have any dirt on Trump leading into the election. Could've been a very different election.

She says "You don't gaslight the American people and you don't deny what's happening." But he does, doesn't he?
MTG: "Gaslighting the people and trying to tell them that prices have come down is infuriating. People know what they are paying at the grocery store.. what they are paying for their electricity bills. You don't gaslight the American people and you don't deny what's happening." x.com/i/status/198...

Trump has a long list of things he thinks nobody knows:
November 11, 2025 at 6:09 AM
SCOTUS heard oral arguments re Trump’s tariffs on Nov. 5.

Some Facts and Thoughts:

1) Tariffs are a tax. The definition is literally “a tax imposed on imported goods.”

2) The tax is paid by the company receiving imported goods. The company has to pay the tariff at the port to receive the goods

A lot of posts try to explain why the other party is doing something. "This is why Democrats/Republicans did X" or "They're just trying to . . ." Everyone should react to posts like this with extreme skepticism. Apply Hanlon's Razor instead.

I've seen some conservatives suggest it's ridiculous to say Trump is acting like a king. So I'm curious, for those who think he is, what are some of the ways you think Trump has acted like a king?

Decided to try out posting some thoughts re Free Speech on Substack. I've seen a lot of misunderstandings re the legal protections for free speech. Hopefully, this helps clarify some things: open.substack.com/pub/bimpire/p/…

Been thinking a lot about how to help the country. I'm not sure what the best ways are, but I feel compelled to try. Pretty sure hating each other will only make things worse & drive us to a darker place. I think love is the answer! I wish our leaders would try to bring us together, not divide us.

When people say we should trust that Trump knows what he's doing, and then I see him say something like this that shows he fundamentally misunderstands how trade works, it gets much harder to believe things are going to work out very well.
Trump: "We were losing hundreds of billions of dollars with China. Now we're essentially not doing business with China. Therefore, we're saving hundreds of billions of dollars. It's very simple."

Self-serving bias is when people only take credit for successes & blame failures on something else. In reality, we play a part in both successes & failures. It's healthy & aids growth when we can admit a mistake. Do you think leaders should take full responsibility for their decisions, good or bad?

Did Trump break the law? Law: "It shall be unlawful for [the President] to request, directly or indirectly, any officer or employee of the Internal Revenue Service to conduct or terminate an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer with respect to the tax liability of such taxpayer"
