A relative of Trump's press secretary is in ICE detention, directly calling out her smears. This is the brutal human cost of their dehumanizing rhetoric, happening within their own circle. The hypocrisy is staggering.

Trump attacked CNN's Kaitlan Collins, calling her stupid. She fired back by pointing out his glaring factual error. It's a classic move: discredit the press to hide your own mistakes.
Kaitlan Collins Slaps Down Trump After He Called Her ‘Stupid’
The aging president first ducked the CNN reporter’s question, then blasted her for supposedly asking about something completely different.

This isn't just a vanity project; it's a blatant money-laundering scheme. Trump is funneling millions from corporate donors like Amazon and Google through a corrupt construction deal, destroying historic property while likely taking a cut.

The GOP's demand for private testimony from Jack Smith is a massive tactical blunder. It gives the prosecutor a public stage to detail Trump's alleged crimes all over again. Their overreach is about to smack into a legal brick wall.
GOP about to 'run into a brick wall' after 'misstep' in going after Jack Smith: attorney
Republicans are about to run face first into a "brick wall" after a "strategic misstep" is leaving them in a no-win scenario as they take on former prosecutor Jack Smith.The GOP has targeted Smith for his work in prosecuting Donald Trump in multiple cases, including a federal case over purported att...

Rubio is embarrassing America by demanding diplomats sell Trump's debunked xenophobic lies to global allies. This clumsy propaganda push ignores how immigrants boost economies and shows profound disrespect for other nations' sovereignty.

Trump's corrupt, transactional pardon of Cuellar blew up in his face, exposing his desperation to cling to power as the GOP faces a midterm bloodbath. His rage over a lack of loyalty proves the pardon was a bribe, not an act of justice.

Even a GOP lawmaker admits his colleagues are fleeing Congress out of shame, reduced to being Trump's rubber stamps. They enabled this humiliation for years. Their belated complaints are worthless.
GOP lawmaker says Republicans are fleeing Congress because it is 'humiliating' to be a 'rubber stamp' for Trump. - The Mind Shield
Rep. Thomas Massie says Republicans are leaving Congress in droves because it is 'humiliating' to be a "rubber stamp" for Donald Trump.

MAGA's base is now cannibalizing its own over performative "Merry Christmas" nonsense while ignoring actual war crimes and a collapsing healthcare system. Even their imagined cultural battles are pathetic distractions from real corruption.
'Fixed it for you': Fans turn on MAGA lawmaker after not 'daring to say Merry Christmas'
A MAGA lawmaker's own base rejected her this weekend after she posted a Christmas-themed seasonal photo without saying, "Merry Christmas."U.S. Representative Nancy Mace (R-SC), 48, reportedly "set the world on fire" on Saturday by releasing a photo of herself that some have said suggests she is preg...

Pete Hegseth, lacking Trump's immunity, is being set up as the fall guy for what legal experts condemn as war crimes. His reckless "kill them all" orders stem from Trump's unlawful assumption of judge-jury-executioner power. This is state-sponsored murder, not policy.

Even a festive tree lighting is now a staged loyalty test. A Trump cabinet member literally had to instruct a shivering crowd on how to properly cheer. This isn't a celebration; it's a pathetic demand for validation from a deeply insecure regime.
MAGA Goon Forces Crowd to Cheer for Trump
Doug Burgum gave the White House tree lighting onlookers a quick lesson in clapping and cheering in advance of Trump’s arrival.

MAGA's radicalism is backfiring spectacularly. A progressive Democrat just slashed a 22-point GOP margin to single digits in deep-red Tennessee. This proves Trump's movement is shrinking, alienating its own base. Their collapse is beautiful to witness.
Inside the rapid decline of Trump's wing of the GOP: analysis
Ordinarily, an election in an area as conservative as Tennessee's 7th Congressional District isn't a major story. That district, which Donald Trump carried by 22 percent in 2024, typically goes hard-right — and a GOP victory comes as no surprise. But on Tuesday, December 2 in Tennessee's 7th Congres...

While the powerful obsess over Epstein lists and fake peace prizes, 22 million Americans like Catalina face life-threatening premium hikes because of political paralysis. This isn't just negligence, it's class warfare.

This damning list reveals Epstein's vast, sickening network of enablers across elite circles—politics, finance, academia, and media. It's a stark map of how power protects its own, shielding a predator for decades. We must see who's still hiding.

Trump has gutted professional diplomacy, replacing it with a reckless insider club of real estate pals and loyalists. This chaotic, ad-hoc approach sidelines experts, outsources policy to foreign powers, and escalates conflicts like Venezuela. It's a blueprint for disaster.

Trump pardons a Democrat accused of bribery, then explodes with rage when the man doesn't switch parties. This exposes the pardon as a corrupt loyalty test, not an act of justice. Our institutions are just toys to his brittle ego.
Trump Rips Henry Cuellar After Granting Him a Pardon
President Donald Trump fumed about a House Democrat — who he just pardoned — choosing to remain with the party rather than defect to the Republicans.

Even Trump's propaganda network is fracturing as Fox hosts admit the failing economy is now his responsibility. The MAGA media shield is cracking under the weight of job losses and unaffordable lives.
Fox News 'starting to crack' as they struggle to defend Trump's economy: analysis
Although Newsmax TV and One America News (OAN) have much smaller audiences than Fox News and Fox Business, they enjoy hardcore MAGA followings that view them as more pro-Donald Trump than Rupert Murdoch's right-wing media empire.
