  • There is no Trump Mandate

    We’ve been bombarded by the MAGA Republicans claiming that Trump and his crew have a free pass, a mandate no less to do whatever they please. Ha! Wrong.

    Let’s get real here – Trump barely squeaked by with a win. His victory margin was so slim that it’s practically non-existent. The guy couldn’t even muster up as many votes as Joe Biden did in 2020. If a measly 120,000 voters had changed their minds in a few key states, Harris would be the one sitting in the Oval Office on January 20th.

    So, yeah, not exactly a ringing endorsement for Trump’s big plans, huh? I mean, come on, reducing Social Security? Really? As a certain former President would say, it’s all just a bunch of lies and fake news.

  • Trump’s nominee to lead IRS touts credential tax experts have never heard of

    Oh, what a surprise! Tax experts at ProPublica were shocked to discover that the CTBA credential is not exactly a well-known or respected certification in the tax profession. It turns out that this prestigious title is bestowed upon individuals who simply attend a three-day seminar hosted by Excel Empire, a company that has been around for a whopping two years. Quite the contrast to the rigorous 150 credit hours and challenging exams required to become a certified public accountant, the gold standard for tax accountants. Who would have thought that a quick seminar could compare to years of hard work and dedication?

  • The Puppet Master – Elon Musk

    It’s quite comical how Trump, in all his old age glory, is struggling to keep up with the fast-paced world of politics. It’s almost as if Elon Musk has taken the reins and Trump is just along for the ride. The toll of the Big Macs is evident – he’s not the sharp Donald we once knew. He now rambles, forgets his whereabouts, and can’t even remember names.

    Elon, being the savvy businessman he is, has seized this opportunity to further his billionaire agenda, even if it comes at the expense of us common folk. And now, he’s resorting to threats against anyone who dares to oppose him, with poor tired Trump obediently following suit.

    What’s next on the agenda? Perhaps Elon will decide to dip his fingers into social security. But hey, who did you really vote for – Trump or Elon? It’s all just a big puppet show at this point.

  • Must Read from Keith Olbermann…MSNBC

    In light of the unprecedented challenges presented by the Trump presidency, MSNBC must adapt and evolve to meet the expectations of its audience and fulfill the responsibilities of a free press. 

    It is imperative for MSNBC confront the pressures of the Trump era, and reaffirm its dedication to serving the public interest. MSNBC has the potential to shape public discourse and uphold the pillars of a healthy democracy.

  • Trump’s Christmas Present to America

    Elon Musk, the man who seems to have more influence in government than some actual politicians, has managed to capture the attention of President Trump and the Republican party. Despite not holding an official government position, Musk has somehow convinced everyone that he can magically find $2 trillion in budget cuts without touching any of the sacred cows like Medicare, Social Security, or the military. It’s truly a mystery where he plans to find this money, but hey, who needs specifics when you have Elon Musk on your side, right?

    Well, isn’t Trump just a ray of sunshine? On Wednesday, he decided to throw a wrench in a perfectly good bipartisan budget deal, potentially leading to a government shutdown after midnight on Saturday. And then, as if that wasn’t enough, he proudly presented a deal with Republicans on Thursday that even Democratic lawmakers and President Joe Biden found utterly unacceptable. Surprise, surprise, it didn’t even come close to passing in the House. And let’s not forget about Trump’s brilliant idea to slap tariffs left and right, which the Congressional Budget Office warned would only end up hurting the economy instead of actually bringing in more revenue to cover his precious tax cuts. Oh, what a genius we have in the White House. Merry Christmas America.

  • No to Vaccine, Crowd Really?

    The rapid development of effective COVID vaccines in less than a year during the pandemic was a groundbreaking achievement in the long history of vaccination. It seemed like we were finally entering an era where we could protect ourselves against infectious diseases.

    But hold on a second! Just when we thought we were making progress, President-elect Donald Trump decides to nominate an antivaccine activist, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as the top health official in the nation. What could possibly go wrong, right?

    Now, we have infectious disease and public health experts warning us that we might be heading towards deadly epidemics of measles, whooping cough, meningitis, and even polio. All thanks to Kennedy and former House member Dave Weldon potentially leading the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    These two geniuses, Kennedy and Weldon, have decided to endorse debunked theories linking vaccines to autism and other chronic diseases. Because who needs reputable scientific studies when you have these guys spreading misinformation, right? And let’s not forget Weldon’s star appearances in antivaccine films after leaving Congress. Bravo, gentlemen, bravo.

    The president-elect also appeared open to the groundbreaking polio vaccine being “looked at.”

  • Can we afford a lier at the FBI?

    Last year, Kath Patel , Trump’s FBI pick, decided to grace the world with his memoir, where he boldly declared himself as the key player in the investigation of the 2012 attack on a diplomatic compound in Benghazi. However, a recent report has revealed that his claims were nothing more than a work of fiction.

    The New York Times took it upon themselves to delve into Patels Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy, where Patel shamelessly portrayed himself as the mastermind behind the investigation. To add insult to injury, he even had the audacity to repeat these claims on a podcast in September, titled “The Shawn Ryan Show.”

    Oh, Kath Patel, the hero we never knew we needed. Thank you for gracing us with your tall tales and delusions of grandeur. Your creativity truly knows no bounds.

  • He did lie and they Bought it!

    It is abundantly clear now that Trump deceived the American public in order to secure his election, with just enough support to narrowly win. Let’s not mince words – a slim majority compromised their values for the allure of lower egg prices and a full gas tank.

    Seems like you can indeed pull the wool over everyone’s eyes, as Trump managed to do. Despite Covid no longer being a concern and the Biden Administration orchestrating the most successful economic recovery in history, many individuals fell for a blatant falsehood.

    And now, Trump finally confesses that he is incapable of delivering on his promises.

    Congratulations, you’re stuck with him for the next four years! Enjoy.

  • His decisions will have a direct impact on your health – RFK JR.

    The individual nominated to lead the Department of Health and Human Services should possess the necessary management and professional experience to effectively oversee one of the largest health agencies in the world. Their decisions will have a direct impact on the health of every American.

    Unfortunately, the current nominee chosen by President-elect Trump lacks these essential qualities. In fact, 77 Nobel Prize Winners have publicly opposed the appointment of RFK Jr.

    It is imperative that politics be set aside in this matter, as the primary focus should be on selecting a leader who prioritizes the health and well-being of the American people to effectively lead this agency.

  • I told you so … vote for Trump, vote for TARIFFS

    I hate to say “I told you so,” but… actually, no I don’t. It’s pretty satisfying to be right. Trump has decided to slap tariffs on several countries, which will ultimately be passed on to consumers.

    For those of you who believed that inflation would magically disappear and voted for him in hopes of cheaper eggs, well, surprise! You’ve been deceived, or let’s call it what it is – lied to.

    But hey, don’t take my word for it. Check out this story for some cold, hard facts. Enjoy!
