Trump is no longer in charge. The presidency has been taken over by a cabal of corruption and white supremacy led by Miller, Vought, Kennedy, and Vance. They keep demented Trump entertained and under control with projects like the ballroom while they stroke his ego with praise, bribes, and prizes.

Nevermind that tearing down the East Wing and replacing it with a ballroom is a mind numbingly stupid idea. Trump, who is supposed to be a real estate developer, can’t even keep from screwing this up www.nytimes.com/2025/12/04/u...

I guess DOGE fired all the competent public affairs people at the state department and replaced them with hacks who don’t know better than to post an image of Trump sleeping. While Rubio blathers away 😂🤣😂

We’ve developed a drug that will saves lives but there’s little profit in it so fuck you.

Trial participants who received the placebo or low doses of the drug all got dengue, too bad for them.

Did DOGE kneecap the vetting process of Afghan refugees, like it kneecapped everything else that they touched

Interesting that Lindsey Halligan's astonishing incompetence didn’t play a role in the dismissal of the Comey and James cases. Trump had already shat the bed when he illegally appointed her

Bitcoin is down over 35% since its peak on Oct. 5. If ever there was a sign to leave the party it was when Trump went all in on bitcoin

Used to be you could go to a witch doctor and they’d say some incantations and you’d be cured. Now you’re given a choice of surgery or expensive drugs with terrible side effects. How’s that progress?
