REPUBLICANS (EVIL SADIST "FUCKWADS"!) COULD END THIS SHUTDOWN IN A HEARTBEAT, BUT THEY WON'T — BECAUSE THIS IS THE "PROJECT 2025 SHUTDOWN." MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING JEFF TIEDRICH (ME!) HAS WRITTEN A VERY STRONG AND POWERFUL POST ABOUT IT — WHICH YOU CAN READ HERE, THANK YOU: bit.ly/3KwqJEo
remember, Republicans could end this shutdown in a second — they control all three branches of government. but they don’t want to end the shutdown. these sadists want Americans — particularly, Americans in Democratic states — to suffer, and they’re using the shutdown as cover to perpetrate their fuckery. Russ Vought — the architect of Project 2025 who is now the Director of the Office of Management and Budget — is pissing himself with glee right now. he’s firing government workers who don’t need to be fired, and defunding government programs that don’t need to be defunded. all this is part of Vought’s Project 2025 wet dream to turn America into a Christian Nationalist dictatorship with Donny Convict permanently installed as King Fuckface the First. he’s been plotting this shit for years.

OH MY! IT SEEMS DONNY'S "RACISM CZAR" TOM HOMAN (NO RELATION TO HUMAN) GOT CAUGHT TAKING A $50K BRIBE. AND THEN DONNY (CRAPPY HAIR!) MADE IT GO BYE-BYE. THIS IS MY "SHOCKED" FACE. THANK YOU FOR TAKING A VERY STRONG LOOK AT MY BEAUTIFUL AND TREMENDOUS POST ABOUT IT. READ IT HERE: bit.ly/3W0e0Mx
if I were to ask you which of Donny Convict’s confederacy of lackeys, psychopaths, incompetents and clownfuckers were most likely to get caught with their larcenous fingers around bags of ill-gotten cash, you’d probably answer, ‘all of them’ — and you wouldn’t be wrong. ‘but Uncle Jeff,’ I hear you asking, ‘that wouldn’t actually happen, would it? bags of cash? who does that? that kind of cartoonish shit only happens in, y’know, cartoons, right?’ wrong — because it ahem allegedly happened to Donny’s own personal Fred Flintstone, ‘border czar’ Tom Homan.

And they primarily support religious schools that are free to discriminate on who they enroll and who they hire. They should not receive taxpayer dollars to support bigotry and discrimination.

President Trump and the GOP lied to Americans about their "big beautiful bill."

Tax on tips? Still there.

Tax on overtime? Still there.

Tax on Social Security benefits? Still there.

The Trump administration continues to help the wealthiest Americans instead of the working Americans.

here's another chunk
from today's post —
thanks for reading!
link to the whole
deal is here: bit.ly/4hHMHPG
a president who gave an actual shit about national security would have fired Hegseth on the spot — and a Secretary of Defense who cared about his own integrity would have resigned before Donny had the chance to fire him. that’s Donny’s Confederacy of Sewer Clowns for you. not one of them was hired for their expertise — or their integrity. they’re all a bunch of incompetent ideologues and toadies who fuck up spectacularly on a daily basis — and as long as they keep kissing Dear Leader’s ass, not one of them will ever face accountability.

Musk—both cruel and clueless? He floats through life atop billions, profiting from taxpayer-funded investments, yet remains dismissive of those who struggle to survive day to day. He may have bought influence in government, but he can't buy a heart.
Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True.
A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

I can understand if you like Trump's political agenda... whatever that may be. But how do you deal with his lies? Do you lie in your own life... to everyone you know? Everyone who you work with? Everyone who loves you?
