The Worst Thing Trump Did on 4/1/25

The Trump administration fired thousands of Health and Human Services employees across the country, with the goal of the administration firing 10,000 federal Health and Human Service employees in this initial round, with the eventual goal of 20,000 people fired.

The employees fired in DC and Maryland found out in one of the douchiest ways possible.  They went to work on Tuesday and waved their badges to get entry into the building.  If the light was red, they were gone. Only the biggest jackasses would ever think something like that would be appropriate.

The firings included 3500 at the FDA, 2400 at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(!!!), 1200 at the NIH, and 300 at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.  None of those departments will run even as close as smoothly as they did prior to the firings.

One element that is not discussed is the impact of the lack of working people in local communities.  These cuts will not just be on the East Coast, as people across the country, including in many rural communities, will be let go, impacting local economies. 

It also should be mentioned that reports are coming out that RFK Jr. is indeed putting an anti-vax litmus test out there on employees.  If you think vaccines are fraudulent, you get to stay.  This will end up killing millions in the US.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/31/25

And now we have our first admission of an innocent man being deported to Trump's gulag in El Salvador.

Late Monday the administration admitted that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was deported wrongly to El Salvador to the notorious prison designed to torture and kill everyone who enters.  The administration then went on to insist there was nothing they could do to get him back.

Moving past the reality that at least 10 other people the Trump Administration secretly snuck into that gulag are innocent of anything they were accused of, Trump could have this guy back in the US in 6 hours if he wanted to.  

Trump is leaving the man there to prevent him from returning home and telling the country what the heck is actually going on down there. If it's common knowledge that innocent people are being tortured and killed without any legal process to overturn it, he knows many of his more ardent supporters will bail.  

Not all of them.  A shocking amount of Trump supporters are more than happy to go along with torture and killing as long as it's not white people it's happening to.  So Christian...

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/30/25

Quick reminder:  The longest a President can serve in office is 10 years.  A President can only be elected twice. If a Vice President rose to the office of president during a term, if they serve less than two years of the remaining term, they can run twice.  If they serve more than two years of the term they inherited, then they can only run one more time.

This is the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution.

Trump on Sunday said he was planning on running for a third term.  He claims there are ways for him to do so, implying Vance could run, win (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!), and then abdicate the office to Trump. That doesn't explain how he would get beyond the Constitution.  And does anyone think Vance would give up the presidency if he somehow won it? 

The only way he can do so is to change the Constitution, but they won't be able to, and I also don't think these guys are going to try to work within our current rules.

Pure speculation.  Currently, the Republicans are trying to pass two voting laws.  The first would be to require 'proof of citizenship.'  Republicans sell this as something simple, but the truth is many American citizens do not have ready access to their proof of citizenship, and many others would have to take a ton of time and money to get the proof.

The second law is more nefarious.  They want to make it so that women could only vote under their maiden name. If you've been married or changed your name, you can't vote!  Add in the 'proof of citizenship' standard and unless a woman has a copy of their birth certificate with 2 federally approved picture IDs with their Maiden name on them, their voting rights are gone. 

Trust me, Republicans are chomping at the bit to end women voting. 

They'll likely fail at passing both bills. Then it comes down to Martial Law. If Trump and the Republicans see an absolute electoral avalanche coming for them, I'm convinced they'll declare Martial Law, under the argument "You people are too emotional right now.  We are going to hold off on the election until you people can calm down a little bit."

And then they never allow another fair election again. And of course, that SCOTUS would allow it. 

Trump can't run again, but it doesn't mean 2028 will be the end of his time in office.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/29/25

Trump's war on the arts and museums (also known as stifling freedom of speech) continues as he's now taking control of the narratives of exhibits and displays at the Smithsonian Museum system.  

He's attacking them, saying they've become bastions of anti-American wokeness and DEI agendas. His argument boils down to this:  'Unless it's told the way I want it told, then it's anti-American.'

The focus of his hatred seems to be two museums in particular.  The Smithsonian Museum of African American History is a target because he feels the Black population of the country hasn't really said thank you enough to the white population of America.  I'm paraphrasing, but that's pretty much it.  He feels a museum dedicated to the history of Black America needs to begin with a display where Black America says, "Thanks, white people!"

The yet unopened Smithsonian Museum of Women is a similar argument, although he is wrapping that argument in his anti-trans bigotry. The underlying vibe Trump is giving off seems to be arguing, "You chicks need to say thank you to the men for allowing you to have your little museum," and that Vance will demand a majority of the museum be dedicated to the virtues of being a doting housewife, barefoot and pregnant, getting the hubby a beer when he needs it.

This is some serious third-world dictator crap; rewriting reality to meet the 'great leaders' demands.

Quick side story. Allegedly in 2017 when Trump visited the African American Museum, and saw a display on Dutch involvement in the global slave trade, Trump's comment was"You know, they love me in the Netherlands."  

So be prepared for their new exhibit, 'Dutch Slave Traders! Their descendants LOVE me!'

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/28/25

Yesterday, Fox News aired the second part of their interview with the head of DOGE and Trump's BFF Elon Musk.  If this was an attempt to come across as more compassionate and human, it failed miserably.

Musk started by insisting the thing that scares him most of all is the falling birth date, completely ignoring the fact the falling birth rate corresponds almost perfectly with billionaires amassing most of the world's wealth, leaving it harder and harder for most people to afford one child let alone a dozen.

He then went on to defend why it was actually a good thing for him to insert himself into the US government with little to no checks and balances.  Sure, why not have the fox himself guard the chickens, but it was when he went after Gov. Tim Walz from Minnesota that his attempt at humanity fell apart completely and collapsed. 

Musk was nearly in tears as he lashed out at Walz for cheering on Tesla's falling stock price. Elon feels that attacking a company that's struggling due to the actions of its corporate head is the one thing we all should feel sympathy for.

The same man who yanked food out of starving people's mouths, who is trying to grind down Social Security not just for future generations but for the current recipients, who has been part of the firing of numerous Veterans, who has hurt Veterans further by helping slash the VA, who is trying to get rid of Medicaid for Americans, stopping the needed help for the sick and elderly, who is part of an Administration trying to kill the post office and public education for the masses, a person who has aligned himself with Republicans who want to bring back child labor, who has crippled needed aid to poor countries, undoubtedly leading to the eventual deaths of MILLIONS, and who has gleefully fired over 100,000 people from our government, promising to fire MANY more...

ALL OF THAT IS OKAY WITH HIM, but a person enjoying watching a company reap what its owner has sown, enjoying the karma of a billionaire who is actively hurting Americans losing his wealth, Musk considers that cruel and merciless. 

These are the worst humans.

The Friday Link for 3/28/25

Let's begin with what might have been the very best sketch from the 50th Anniversary show of Saturday Night Live, a bit that did not take place on the actual broadcast, but rather earlier in the week at the SNL tribute to 50 years worth of music.

They leaned heavily into Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer returning with an all-time skit, the Culps, the wildly nerdy-looking older couple who were always ready to play a church or school function, and who were well schooled in popular music culture. 

This sketch doesn't need more of an intro.  Some adult language and outright hilarious at times. 


Also this week a great video from the Trek Planner, a YouTuber who goes on these great hikes in the desert southwest and finds all sorts of ruins and artifacts of the native cultures who used to dominate the land.

What he does find this time is really cool; petroglyphs that have been relatively undisturbed since their creation.  It's not only cool but a little creepy, too. 


Finally tonight, a sports result you might not know about.

It's hard to watch what Trump and his team are doing and have pride in America.  The Age of Cruelty is here, and Trump is acting like a deranged ex-boyfriend: "If you don't love me the way I want you, I will hurt you to try to make you love me the hard way."

I love America.  I am a Veteran.  It's hard to see the world look at us like villains. Considering what Trump is doing, I don't blame them.  And that's nothing compared to how much he is actively hurting this country's people, including his most ardent supporters.

You can still find reasons to be a proud American.  Case in point, the US men won gold in team pursuit at the World Speed Skating Championships.  USA! USA! USA! 


Have a great weekend everyone!

Remember to stay safe and get vaccinated!  I don't want to see you suffer, unlike the Trump Administration. 




The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/27/25

Never forget that the 2nd Trump administration is basically a heist.  They're going to take as much money from the US Government, probably including the gold bars from Fort Knox, and jam it into their pockets, while that SCOTUS will eventually rule, "Well, it doesn't specifically say the President can't rob the country blind."

We found out yesterday there's one major winner in Trump's new 25% tariffs on auto imports and foreign-produced auto parts, Tesla, Elon Musk's auto company.  As one analyst points out, the verbiage of the order is written to specifically carve out Tesla as the lone company with minimum impact.  

Would Trump torpedo the world auto markets to help out his buddy?  Of course he would.  This is just payback for Musk buying Twitter and turning it into a mouthpiece for Trump.  In addition to the new tariffs, Trump even 'ordered' the other US automakers to not raise prices to offset their additional costs, putting Musk's competitors in a tighter position.

Yesterday, it was also announced that the Trump plan to completely eliminate the Estate Tax would give Musk's heirs a windfall of 132 BILLION dollars.  Trump's heirs would see a savings of 2 Billion.  Eliminating the Estate Tax would also leave a massive gap in the budget, something that several Trump Republicans have argued should be filled by raising the taxes of those making $75K or less per year.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/26/25

This Administration is truly evil.

Kristi Noem is mentally unwell.  She herself wrote a passage in a book, BRAGGING about taking a dog and a goat to the gravel pit to shoot them in the head because they were annoying her. This is the kid who threw rocks at squirrels in the park growing up, and now she's running...(checks notes)...Homeland Security.

Yesterday, in what can only be described as Stalin-era propaganda, Kristi went to the notorious prison in El Salvador where she and Trump sent the ALLEGED Venezuelan gang members.  They staged photo ops in front of prisoners (undoubtedly with multiple machine guns aimed at them, ordering them to behave (or else). This is once again a gulag, a prison set up where the goal is to torture and kill the prisoners.  Kristi bragged about this whole setup...a mentally broken, deranged psycho throwing rocks, only this time it's not squirrels, but other HUMAN BEINGS!!!

It should be noted that many Venzualeans rounded up by the Gestapo ICE are NOT gang members but merely Venezuelans here legally in the United States.  The Trump administration knows this, that's why they invoked the Alien Insurrection Act of 1798 to quickly remove them from the country without a court hearing to have a judge review the nonexistent evidence against them, also ignoring a judge's direct order to stop the inhumanity.  

They knowingly have taken innocent people and signed off on their torture and murder to pretend they're 'tough guys,' fulfilling a campaign promise that was mostly made up in the first place.

These people are evil.

The Worst Thing Trump did on 3/25/25

Let's stay with the Signal app classified information leak where somehow an editor for The Atlantic was invited to be part of a discussion on the bombing of Yemen on an unsecured app which UNDOUBTEDLY our allies and enemies were all part of as well. 

There seemed to be some confusion on what the Trump Administration's alibi would be, and multiple different narratives started to develop in the morning.  Eventually, in a Senate hearing, the attitude was "nothing in the conversation was classified." This caused Senator Warner to ask, "Well if it wasn't classified, what exactly did you discuss on the Signal App(?)," a question which brought thunderous silence from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, two people who were on the group chat.

Then we also learned that Defense Secretary Pete "DRINK" Hegseth's own department had put out an urgent notice a few days earlier telling all employees to avoid using Signal for communications, as it was prone to hacks.

By the end of yesterday, belligerence seemed to be the fallback position, as every White House person speaking on the scandal claimed nothing secret was discussed, something which is laughable this morning as The Atlantic has published all the screenshots, and DAMN RIGHT classified information was discussed freely. 

These are the dumbest, more evil, incompetent boobs to ever be in charge of a country.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/24/25

This is an easy layup decision.

A bunch of guys who preened and pranced on far-right news media about how they were so much better than Hillary Clinton and her non-existent e-mail scandal were all left yammering as the whole lot of them did something so insanely boneheaded it's hard to fathom. 

Most of Trump's military and intelligence department had a meeting about imminent military action on a non-secure app, and they somehow included an editor from The Atlantic in the meeting invite.

Not only has the same Republican Party who was contemplating ANOTHER Clinton Email investigation as Trump started his second term suddenly insisted there is no need to investigate A FAR WORSE violation of national security and protocol than ANY Democrat has EVER done, but they're also lining up to praise this Cabal of Knucklehead as somehow competent.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/23/25

In the category of cruel and unusual punishment, inflicting the 2nd Lady Usha Vance, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, and Energy Secretary Chris Wright onto Greenland is one of the worst. 

No one who lives in Greenland wants the US to own it, outside of a few local drunks the Trump Administration paid to wear MAGA hats a few months back. Denmark has insisted it is not for sale, so the only way Trump can take it is by force, which he might well do! Trump looks back at the manifest destiny days of American History, where white Europeans drove the Indigenous population off their historic lands, as an inspiration. 

I honestly think most of the developed world will isolate us completely if we try this. We'll likely have to kill a portion of the population to take control.  

One theory is that Trump's ultimate goal is to create a prison colony away from the 50 states to send his political enemies, and Greenland fits the bill nicely.  He can create new Trump gulags, forcing his political enemies to be held (without a trial) to dig minerals out of the frozen ground for him and his wealthy buddies to make money off of. 

Let's face it, that's what Stalin did, it's what Putin does, and Trump wants to emulate them. 

Trump wants to do for Greenland what he did for the Kennedy Center.  He's pretty much killed that within 2 months...TWO MONTHS!!!

The Worst Thing Trump did on 3/22/25

Trump's unrestricted march towards authoritarianism continues, as now he's actively silencing any law firm that might challenge his agenda in court.

Trump has been targeting certain law firms with executive orders, basically saying they're forbidden from entering federal courthouses, mainly because they had a partner of a former staff member who aided in the prosecution of Trump in the past FOR HIS MANY CRIMES.

One law firm, Perkins Coie, did exactly what you should do, go tell Trump to F- himself.  

Unfortunately, on Friday, the law firm of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison folded like a cheap suit. They threw their former partner under the bus, claiming prosecuting Trump was actually misconduct (it wasn't).  They also agreed to other concessions to Trump and promised to get rid of DEI programs, this at a law firm that had a major history of leading the charge into equity in the workplace.  Not anymore.  For the record, how can ANYONE trust Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison to represent them from here on out?  It appears they'd sell you out as a client if Trump demanded it. 

Fresh with the taste of the bowing of the one firm, Trump has now ordered the most unqualified AG in History, Pam Bondi, and the goat murderer herself, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi 'Incompetent Boob' Noem, to use all means necessary to persecute any lawyer the Administration has deemed to have 'abused the legal system and the Federal Court.'

The Trump administration has told all of the established law firms to "HEEL(!)" while creating an outright threat to any other lawyer:  'Even think of prosecuting this wildly out of control administration, and we will punish you.' 

And Republicans are silent.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/21/25

A stunning admission from Trump came to light yesterday, and even more stunning (but not surprising) is the news media's relative disinterest in the story. 

Judge James Boasberg, the judge whose direct orders were willingly ignored by the Trump White House in regards to them shipping Venezuelans to Trump's gulag in El Salvador, made the comment that Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 seemed to be akin to be an order signed in the dark of the night, as they quickly ushered the falsely accused Venezuelans onto the planes as fast as possible.

The media asked Trump to respond to the judge's comment. Trump, referring to the order to deport the Venezuelans with the antiquated WAR TIME rule, said, "I don't know when it was signed because I didn't sign it. Other people handled that."

WHAT?!?

The signature on the order sure as heck looks to be Trump's signature, so there are two possibilities.

  1. Trump did sign it, and either he forgot he did, or he's lying about doing so.
  2. Trump didn't sign it, strongly implying there is a shadow government that's only using Trump as a figurehead, as they make these decisions and forge his signature on documents.
Neither is a good omen for this country. If a Democratic President had said the same thing, there would be 20 investigations opened within 12 hours. Republicans instead either cheer on the United States torturing and killing innocent people ("To send a message" - yeah, you're f-ing horrible) or they silently stare at the ground to avoid eye contact, kicking the dirt until people stop asking them about it. 

But where the f- is the freaking news media???

Let's just take the LEAST offensive option, that Trump just forgot.  Where is the same news media who for three weeks, harshly attacked Joe Biden for having a senior moment at the debate? Where is the outrage over the possibility that a shadow government is behind the scenes authorizing clandestine flights to a gulag in a foreign country to have MAGA enemies tortured and killed? 

The news media is still failing us.

The Friday Link for 3/21/25

Howdy all!

This week, we start with John Oliver and Last Week Tonight.  On Sunday, he had a show that talked about sports gambling and the rise of the apps that make losing your house easy!

It is really scary to see how quickly these sports betting apps have taken over everything and not only do the apps themselves seem to have ZERO moral compass, but it's very clear that the negative impacts to society will be dire. We really need to think about whether this is a good idea.  

As one woman says [paraphrasing] - "If you are trying to give up drugs, you don't have the drug dealer coming to your house and handing you more drugs."

Moving on...

If you watch my radio show live stream, you might notice I occasionally wear a Congaree National Park t-shirt.  Congaree is located in South Carolina, and it is one of the last remaining untouched bayou wetlands that used to stretch from North Carolina to Texas. In April and May, the park becomes the thing of fantasies as fireflies come out in droves and turn the place mythical.

But you may have noticed where you live that there is a serious downturn in the amount of fireflies overall.  True Facts is trying to help answer that question by asking, "Where Have All The Fireflies Gone!" 


Finally, a bit of diplomacy from Canadian The ANTI-CHEF! 

As a Canadian, you can tell he is just as bothered by what is going on with Trump as the rest of us are.  He tries to rally Canada and encourage support for Canada by diving into a Canadian delicacy, Butter Tarts, and they do look tasty! 


Canada, I love the USA, but I will take you over Trump ANY DAY!!!

Have a great weekend.  PLEASE make sure you stay up to date on all of your vaccinations! 




The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/20/25

He is trying to kill the Department of Education.

He can't, as Congress has to officially eliminate it, and that won't happen. Even a lot of Republicans don't want it to go away, but still, Trump will dismantle a large portion of it, and the days of 'education for all' are limited.

I won't try to explain the Trump plan, which he insists will keep most things in place.  I will instead tell you how this will go (regardless of what they say).

Most of the money geared toward education will be given as a massive cash handout to millionaires and billionaires. The remaining fraction of the funding will be handed over to the states with no guidance on how it should be spent.  Forget about Republicans giving it all to wealthy private school kids for their private school tuition.  Republicans will take the money and spend it on free yachts for the wealthy, with names like 'School Daze' to give them an extra chuckle. 

The schools that will be hardest hit by this will not be the inner city schools, the high minority population areas where Trump voters were told the only cuts would happen (voting to hurt others), but will be rural schools, where the population and tax base won't have the money to cope.  School districts will consolidate at a (likely) ratio of 10 districts into 1, leaving many rural families having their kids' school an hour away from their house.  Class sizes will be 50/60 to 1, and all the "education" schools will be able to afford to teach is a test, the same test over and over and over and over...

Kids will "graduate" without an adequate education to move on to college, but even if they did, they'd have to pay private banks extraordinary amounts for student loans, student loans which are currently kept affordable because they run through the US Government. College for over 75% of the country will no longer be an option. Instead, buckled by Republicans eagerly dropping the legal working age down to 10 years old, most kids will be forced into minimum-wage, menial work with no chance of advancement, FOR THEIR ENTIRE LIVES! 

And all disabled kids will lose all of their funding, meaning public education will no longer be an option.

 This will eventually lead to the Republican's ultimate goal, making Education so bad that it becomes viable to privatize education, with corporations making massive profits, while the quality of education gets worse and worse. 

They are already saying they will fire everyone who administers the grants to school districts except three people. The idea that three people are going to be able to keep the system afloat is laughable.

Maybe your kid, without any option to attend a viable school, forced into the workforce at a stunningly young age, will eventually get a good tip from the guy parking the 'School Daze' at the marina...maybe.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/19/25

DEAR LORD!

Brain Worm Magee is at it again, as HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has announced his plan to deal with the ever-expanding H5N1 avian flu crisis in the US: 'Let her rip!'

His plan is to let the avian flu run rampant, killing all the birds WITHOUT CULLING THE FLOCKS so that the one or two chickens who manage to survive can be pulled aside to rebuild the chicken population.  Seriously, this is insanity!

Avian flu kills between 90 and 100% of chickens in 3 to 4 days (you read that right!)! The only way you can prevent it from running rampant is by culling the infected flocks. Genetic resistance in chickens and turkeys is not a thing.  It doesn't exist.  And it might take 50 years for chickens to naturally build up an immunity.  Avian flu is a great example of why certain animals die off.  Kennedy thinks species can mutate like the X-Men. 

This strategy will make the current price of a dozen eggs seem like a bargain, and you can forget about any chicken you can buy in the store or at a restaurant.  KFC, Chick-fil-A, and Popeyes would all fold and chicken would become next to impossible to find for less than $50 in a grocery store. Some would insist it's fine to eat the meat/eggs from infected birds but would you want to risk eating it?

And then we need to talk about the rate at which H5N1 is moving into other animals.  This Avian Flu EVERYWHERE approach would lead to the expansion of Avian Flu into all livestock, likely wiping out those markets as well.  Beff, Pork, and Lamb would all face similar die-offs and price explosions.  Milk and other dairy-related products would also be yanked off the shelves. And considering cats and dogs are susceptible to Avian flu, they'll also see massive die-offs.

Then there is the human problem.  Humans are starting to get Avian Flu from the livestock they are working with. The virus is only one or two adaptions away from becoming a human-to-human virus.  The US not culling the birds would lead to a rapid expansion of the disease in contact with every human being.  In humans, the death rate is 20-25%. It will make the COVID epidemic seem quaint. 

Kennedy is an ignorant fool who is willing to kill all of us for his theories (which he'll NEVER admit were wrong).

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/18/25

For the record, you can protest something without breaking the law.  People who are damaging and torching Teslas, you're doing it wrong.  That brand is toxic enough by itself that the car manufacturer will never recover from the damage Elon has done to it. Stop vandalizing things.

Pam Bondi, Trump's AG, has decided to call the vandalism to Teslas "domestic terrorism."  It is a crime, but it's vandalism, not terrorism. This is on the heels of her insisting anyone who protests a Tesla dealership or manufacturing plant is under government surveillance and is being tracked.  

This is CLEARLY Bondi trying to use the DOJ as a personal police squad for Elon, using the handful of idiots causing damage to criminalize the peaceful protestors. The Trump administration wants to find some argument to unleash the US military on the people of this country, and this might be their eventual justification.

One other side note.  Do you know what Bondi DOESN'T consider domestic terrorism?  January 6th, when insurrectionists trying to overthrow a legitimate US election violently attacked the US Capitol, beat cops, threatened the Senate and House, destroyed property, stole property, and wiped feces all over the walls. 

THAT wasn't terrorism in Bondi's mind, but walking in front of a Tesla dealership on a public sidewalk with a sign is.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/17/25

Is there anything that sizes up the Trump administration more than them storming the...(checks notes)...United States Institute of Peace in a hostile takeover as they plan on shutting the agency down, an agency created by Reagan to try to prevent violent conflicts and broker peace abroad. 

That is some on-brand sh!t right there.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/16/25

On Sunday, it was Trump ignoring the rule of law and making up the rules as he goes.

In yesterday's TWTTD, we talked about how a judge immediately stepped in and told Trump he couldn't use antiquated wartime rules to ethnically cleanse the US of Venezuelans, and he ordered the Trump Administration to return any US planes in the air carrying Venezuelans out of the country. 

The White House itself has now bragged it intentionally ignored the court order and allowed planes to leave the country. 

Trump also claimed yesterday that Biden's pardons he issued to prevent Trump from going on a political revenge tour are null and void.  As Aaron Rupar stated, that's some serious "Dictator Sh!t."

This is a Constitutional Crisis.  Republicans in the Legislative Branch have all but ignored their role in monitoring and reigning in Trump, and the Judiciary Branch is teetering on the very edge of abolishing their role as well. 

The Supreme Court ruled last year in a 6-3 ruling that Trump was absolutely immune from anything he did while President of the United States. If Joe Biden had the SAME EXACT case in front of that SCOTUS, it would've been a 9-0 ruling against Biden.

Earlier this month, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that Trump had to follow the ruling of a lower court judge, with 4 Supreme Court justices saying the Judiciary Branch has no right to order the President to do anything. (They also made a comical comment about the 'self-aggrandizement of a jurisdiction,' something the 4 dissenting votes applaud when some Republican clown takes a case to Texas to be reviewed by their pro-fascism judges.)  If Joe Biden had brought the SAME EXACT case to that SCOTUS, it would've been a 9-0 ruling against Biden.

We already know Alito and Thomas are bought and paid for, stooges who will vote to destroy the power of the Judicial Branch to appease their Fascism. Will three more join them? 

And will the Republicans in Congress do ANYTHING to stop this insanity???

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/15/25

Someone in the Trump Administration (Trump stares at the sun.  He clearly did not come up with this legal nonsense) is trying to use the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to forcibly eject all Venezuelans from the United States.

First, the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 was designed for wartime, and it was even aggressive for such times.  It allows a president to detain and remove people threatening the country's safety without any due process.  This was last used to justify the Japanese internment camps, one of the larger stains on this country.

It might cross your mind, "but we're not at war with Venezuela." You are correct! A declaration of war comes from Congress, and we have not declared war on them. 

This seems to rotate around a pledge Trump made to remove violent gang members who have come to this country. We actually have a lot of rules on the books allowing gang members and violent criminals to be deported, so why are they attempting to use some ancient rule to try to argue for something they can already do?

It seems to come down to the Trump Administration not having the evidence to attach a 'criminal' or 'gang member' label onto every Venzuelan in the United States, or (and this is probably more likely) they're lazy and don't have the man power to make the numerous arguments (whether legit or made up) in all the court cases. The Alien Enemies Act of 1798 allows them to bypass the court system and just deport at will. 

Yes, this means Trump will likely throw out long-time US CITIZENS from Venezuela who are neither criminals nor gang members.  This is ethnic cleansing, wrapped in convenience, to fulfill a campaign talking point.

A judge quickly halted this from going forward and ordered any planes in the air to return to the United States. but it was the DOJ's legal briefing to the judge that caused a lot of legal experts to be in shock.  The DOJ is now arguing that the President alone can determine who can be deported, AT ANY TIME!  This would mean people like myself, whose families have been here since the early 1800s, could be removed and sent back to an ancient relative's country of origin.

It's the bipolar outrage of Republicans that is most disturbing. If Biden had merely suggested using this rule for his agenda, they'd be going berserk! Trump does it, and they applaud.

The Worst Thing Trump Did this last week (3/9/25 - 3/14/25)

Howdy all.  I was on vacation the last few days.

Did I see Trump turn the White House into a discount car lot?  

CLEARLY bothered by the effective worldwide Tesla protest and Tesla's plunging value since the beginning of the year, Trump did a favor for his favorite Hitler-loving, Bond villain, Elon.  Trump on Tuesday had Elon bring a bunch of his crappy preforming, Alpha male status symbols up onto the White House as Trump promised he'd buy one.  

This included a Cybertruck, which also made headlines on Friday for having deliveries paused as large parts of it fall off at random times. That would be called a "design flaw!"

Also on Friday, Pam Bondi, the grossly unqualified Attorney General, threatened to jail peaceful Tesla protestors, even going as far as to say the Department of Justice is "closely watching" Tesla dealerships, taking down the names of anyone even breathing ominously towards the dealership.  I might argue that crime might be something the DOJ might want to focus on, but I guess they feel protesting Tesla is the worst thing happening in America today. 

By the way, about the 'Hitler-loving' comment, Elon on Friday also posted that "Hitler didn't murder millions of people."  Actually, he did. I know there are a lot of pro-Israeli people who like Trump's authoritarianism against pro-Palestinaian protestors, but THIS is what you're embracing?!?

These guys are quite literally beyond parody. 

And every Republican applauds.

The Friday Link for 3/14/25

 Hey all!

This week, we start off with a really well-done video talking about the 5 best debut alums from the 1970s. The account Professor of Rock has a really good breakdown of the five first albums, all of which are iconic now.

If you follow me, you know I am a huge fan of the Canadian band Rush, who are not featured on this list.  Rush's debut album (Rush) was good, but not like these other ones.  Their 4th album, 2112, was where they took off, and Neil Peart wasn't even their drummer/lyricist at that point.  Their omission from this list is understandable.

I can't tell you how happy I am that they included the #3 debut. 


Also tonight is a classic riff from The Mads Are Back, Trace Beaulieu and Frank Conniff! Here, they revisit their classic MST3K days with one of the most nefarious shorts ever riffed, Mr. B Natural. 


Have a great weekend, everyone! 

Please make sure you get vaccinated!

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/8/24

Before I get to yesterday's winner, a note: I'm on vacation from my regular gig this week, and where I initially thought this would be easy to do while I was out of the office, the reality is I was out having fun with my family yesterday and had to stop to come post yesterday's entry.  I'm not going to sacrifice my vacation time. After today, I'll start making posts again next weekend.

For Saturday, let's look at Johnny Mabeline, Lady Blah-Blah himself, J.D.Vance. 

Apparently, Ranger Rick was out and about when confronted by Ukrainian protestors.  Considering his misguided, very public bullying of Zelensky in the Oval Office, the administration basically taking orders directly from Putin, and America's pro-Ukranian tilt, he seemed somewhat surprised that the protestors were protesting.

By the way, I should mention Vance had his 3-year-old kid with him. 

This was by design. Vance and his team know people are angry, so he decided to go out in public with his 'human shield,' his 3-year-old kid, in an attempt to make it seem like anyone protesting him was a villain. I expect to see other members of the administration mimic this tactic as their policies become less popular. 

Did people yell at him?  Damn right they did, with GOOD cause, but there was never a concern of him being physically threatened, and no one physically threatened the 3-year-old, but by the way you hear Vance tell it, he made it seem like he and his DESIGNED HUMAN SHIELD barely escaped with their lives. This is a lie.

The obvious thing to say is, "If you are concerned about 3-year-olds, then you should see what Russia is doing to them in Ukraine," but let me point out the other side of this.  Vance and Trump pardoned people, the January 6th Insurrectionists, who beat cops, destroyed the US Capitol building, hit people with flag poles, hockey sticks, and fire extinguishers, sprayed people with chemicals, and tried to overturn a legitimate election.  They pardoned THOSE protestors, calling them "good American patriots!"

But some people yelling at Vance as he walks down a public street, "THEY'RE ANIMALS!!!"

It also shouldn't be ignored that this gross over-exaggeration of people protesting members of the Administration will be their argument on why the military needs to start shooting any protestor who dares raise their voice in protest.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/7/25

I was wondering how long it would take for Kennedy and his stooges to do this.  

Even though tens of millions of dollars have been spent on dozens of studies proving that VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM, Trump's Health Secretary Brain Worm Magee (Robert F Kennedy Jr.) has asked the CDC to do another study looking into the already extensively disproven lie. 

The reason they're doing this is simple.  They are going to make up a fake study that they will claim proved them right the entire time, waving it in everyone's face, but then they'll insist no one can see the report, see their methodology, fighting tooth and nail to prevent it from ever being reviewed by unbiased medical professionals.  

This is them rewriting reality to make themselves right.

The end result will be thousands of needlessly killed kids and adults.  Kennedy, Trump, and their entire clown car HHS are more than willing to kill you and your family for their cause!

The Firday Link for 3/7/25

Howdy All! 

This week, we start with two from Dan McClellan, the YouTuber who confronts the modern-day exaggerations of Christian zealotry, dogma, and outright religious conspiracy theories who wished they were real.  

The first video is a great one.  There is this long-standing myth that some guy from nearly 1000 years ago predicted every Pope in order, and how the very next one in line signals the 'end of days.'  I've heard about this and was always intrigued.  Thanks to Dan, I shouldn't have been, as this story was from around 1590 and was clearly made up.  By the time the story was finally published in 1595, the predictions were already laughably wrong. 


Another element of modern Christianity I find hilarious is the determination of some to prove everything they want to be true is true, but they also believe in a fantasy world interpretation, which is outright laughable.  Such is the case of Goliath.  They want Goliath to be real but then claim him to be Hagrid from Hogwarts tall! 

Dan to the rescue again, as he points out that Goliath was tall, but not Godzilla tall. 


Finally tonight, how in the hell do you screw up a grilled cheese sandwich with tomato soup?

Anti-Chef, which started as him mainly tackling Julia Child recipies, tackles a real doozy from Thomas Keller.  This recipe is ridiculous. I'm not saying it's not delicious, but it's just far more freaking complicated than it needs to be, pretentious, and so taxing it can't possibly be for the average everyday cook.

What's crazy is that if you have a very basic knowledge of cooking, you can make a pretty good grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup!  It's the 'Smoke on the Water' of cooking!  Butter a piece of bread.  Place it butter side down on a skillet.  Place 3 to 4 slices of good old-fashioned American cheese on the slice, and then place another slice of bread on top where the outside portion is also buttered.  Flip until cooked and melted.  Grab a can of Campbell's Tomato soup. Instead of water use half and half and stir so it doesn't burn.  DONE!!!

And it's really easy to make a pretty basic homemade tomato soup from scratch.  Joy of Cooking has a basic recipe, and you can branch out from that. 

This Keller recipe is a nightmare (not including Jamie's personal events).  Watch him do this, but unless you have an industrial kitchen and advanced cooking knowledge, don't even try this one. 


Have a great weekend, everyone.  Stay vaccinated and stay safe. 






The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/6/25

A lot of people are pointing out that the Republicans, terrified of having to either 1) condemn Trump for his cold, heartless, and meanspirited cuts to needed government programs, knowing the "Murder them All" MAGA wont take kindly to them attacking their TrumpGod, or 2) defend hurting pretty much everyone in their district for the sake of more tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires, are running away from hosting town hall meetings, insiting WITHOUT ANY EVIDECNE the people demanding answers are actually Democratic plants. 

It's hard to tell the public that the health care of over 80 million people is LESS IMPORTANT than another tax break for the 23,500 households in America who make 10 million dollars a year or more. 

AND THAT'S JUST THE MEDICAID CUTS!!!

Trump's team is trying out a new strategy: belligerence! 

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent made the laughable statement that no one in America should expect cheap, affordable prices on goods. This seems to contradict a year's worth of Trump campaign promises of "Cheaper Everything," something that has yet to materialize.  This is Bessent basically saying it's America's patriotic duty to pay more for maple syrup to justify their boneheaded, rookie-hour trade war.

As far as all the job losses impacting the economy, former Trump Advisor Matt Mowers insisted that EVERYONE should be happy and cheering the massive government layoffs, including all the Trump voters who have lost their jobs too! That is some Kool-Aid drinking!

But the craziest one came from Trump's toadie Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana, who referred to the people (INCLUDING VETERANS) complaining about losing the healthcare, social security, food assistance, shelter, and other functioning government entities (like FAA, National Parks, Kennedy Center) as "squealing pigs" "The tofu crowd is mad, but you know, when you trim fat pigs squeal."

Putting aside the fact that the tofu crowd generally doesn't eat animal fat (his attempted insult contradicts itself), this guy basically stated he sleeps peacefully at night to the screams of pain from the needy in this country, INCLUDING VETERANS!

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/5/24

I'm a Veteran of the US Army. I'm proud of my service. 

A secret memo was leaked yesterday showing the Trump Administration was looking to slash TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VETERAN AFFAIRS EMPLOYEES, MANY OF WHOM ARE VETERANS THEMSELVES!!! This would be a cut of almost 20% of the VA workforce.

The VA serves 9 million clients and, last year alone, accomplished 127,500,000 appointments.  THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION EXPANDED VA CARE to not only cover the military victims of burn pits but to expand an already understaffed VA.  Trump and his team will undo all that, plus much more.

Veterans will be fired.  Veterans will get worse service.  Veterans will die. 

The remaining VA employees who already bust their asses will be worked even harder out of Republican spite for the system.  

And the end goal of the Republicans is to sell off the VA to a for-profit Republican company to provide worse service at a FAR more expensive price.

Republicans do not care about the Veterans.

And as a Veteran, let me talk to the other Veterans who eagerly pose with Republicans for photo ops to help promote a political party that has shown nothing but DISDAIN AND DISGUST for military Veterans and their families. What's wrong with you?  YOU CAN NOT ARGUE YOU ARE FOR THE TROOPS AND ENDORSE, POSE WITH, OR VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN! 

Stop being selfish and realize Trump and the GOP are not your friends! They're using you!!!

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/4/25

Let's turn our attention to Trump's Health and Human Services Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

On Monday, it was reported that Kennedy's top spokesperson, former Trump Administration official Thomas Corry, had suddenly resigned less than two weeks after taking the job.  It was reported that he had a major disagreement with Kennedy in regard to the growing measles outbreak in Texas.

Now, we are getting an idea of what that conflict was about. RFK Jr. wrote an editorial for Fox News on Tuesday where he said the solution to the measles was nutrition and Vitamin A, while at the same time he did not encourag everyone to get vaccinated against the measles. 

Seriously! 

He said, "Vitamin A dramatically reduce[s] measles mortality."  That's an outright lie.  Vitamin A is used as supportive therapy for kids who already have measles. but it's not a cure by any means. Nor is it an alternative for vaccines, WHICH ARE PROVEN TO BE AN EFFECTIVE MEANS TO STAVE OFF INFECTION!!!  Immediately, many doctors and scientists warned that the nurition/Vitamin A route was ineffective and put children at risk of contracting the disease. 

RFK Jr., his trolls, and Trump are more than willing to kill you and your kids for their causes.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/3/25

This could EASILY be the end of aid to Ukraine in Trump's petty attempt to appease this country's true President (Putin), but I'll go with the insanely boneheaded decision to march ahead with his tariff plans for Canada, Mexico, and China. 

It's amazing how he and his supporters forgot how much his tariffs during his first term hurt Americans, especially the farmers.  Their markets weren't corrected until President Biden fixed them. Too bad the dumb ass rural Trump voters EAGERLY forgot those little factoids as they foolishly voted for Trump to do exactly what he is doing, something they now have the audacity to insist "we had no idea he was going to do that...again!"

There is an ugly reality to our modern trade culture. The United States needs products from outside the US FAR MORE than the rest of the world needs US Products.  I guarantee that the export tariffs the foreign countries will place on our products will have a far more severe ripple effect on us.  These other countries are already negotiating LONG-TERM contracts with other non-US countries to supply them the products they need, more than likely at a cheaper price.

Meanwhile, this idea that the US will just consume the near 180 billion in exported agricultural products without immediately tanking the markets in this country (as they'll have FAR TOO MUCH SURPLUS PRODUCT) is uneducated and stupid.

Nope, this will make everything cost more while cutting the revenue for the suppliers who make it, and this time, I doubt the rest of the world will return to the US, IF a new election ever happens.

Rural Americans:  Reap what you sow.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/2/25

Yesterday, there were actually two things that fell under the same category: incredible incompetence.

First, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. might have finally had an epiphany on vaccines, as the measles outbreak in Texas is starting to spiral out of control. Realizing raw milk and healing crystals weren't cutting the infection rate, he's at least started to listen to scientists (a little late, though). Yesterday, he suggested that people get the proven MMR vaccine.

I did say "MIGHT." Kennedy did not encourage people to get the vaccination, as he still insisted this is a personal choice (as measles runs rampant).  Kennedy is trying to play both sides of the coin. He now knows vaccines do serve a purpose, but he's also still trying to appeal to his fringe base, the ones who were only yesterday screaming that everyone in the country getting the measles was a better option than one person getting vaccinated.  These loons will kill us all for THEIR ignorant and uneducated cause.

Then there is Pete Hegseth, who inexplicably ordered the US Cyber command to halt all operations against Russia. THERE IS NO JUSTIFIABLE REASON TO DO SUCH A THING!!! Considering Russia's military is a freaking laughing stock, the ONLY thing that country has is their cyber operations and they're still actively targeting the US. This is another sign that Putin is making all the decisions about the US's foreign police, intelligence, and defense agenda.

Reagan (who is burning in hell himself) is spinning in his grave.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 3/1/25

Trump was pretty quiet yesterday, a sign his team knows he crapped the foreign relations bed on Friday.

There was a rumor that Trump met with the disgusting Andrew Tate after Trump lobbied the Romanians to return Tate to the US.  That might be true, but so far, I have not seen a confirmation.

Let's go with Trump saying he will posthumously pardon Pete Rose, the baseball great who, when he was a manager for the Cincinnati Reds, bet on his team, as he admitted in 2007, "almost every night." Trump was clearly trying to take his disastrous Oval Office implosion off the front page, but Rose's ban was for VERY legit reasons.

Trump is trying to argue that even though the league VERY CLEARLY says you can not bet on baseball as a manager, regardless of the bet, since Rose only bet on his team to win, he really didn't deserve the suspension.  Two problems with this. 1) The Dowd report, which was sanctioned to look into Rose's betting, argued it was likely Rose did indeed bet on his team to lose, something bolstered by boneheaded managerial decisions in a few games that cost the Reds the win. 2) Even if he only bet on his team to win, he violated the integrity of the game itself by placing his bets above what was best for the team. 

Major League Baseball banned Rose for life because, like the 1919 Chicago White Sox scandal, the crime threatened the integrity of the game itself, turning baseball more into professional wrestling than a sport where there was an unknown outcome. 

But once again, this was Trump just blurting out ANYTHING to try to get his disastrous Friday off the front page.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/28/25

Sometimes, it's a no-brainer.

Yesterday, Trump, in an effort to appease his commander-in-chief Putin, coordinated an Oval Office attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.  There are a lot of signs this was pre planned, from Vance (who has been pretty much absent since inauguration) suddenly showing up with a clearly PRACTICED list of attack questions, to a planted member of the media pool berating Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit (How F-ing stupid!), to a member of TASS (Russian State Media) being in the room until a British journalist posted they were there, to Trump's comments about Russia and Ukraine which seem to have been written by Putin himself.

More proof is how Trump and MAGA were frantically screaming it wasn't a foreign policy disaster worse than Neville Chamberlain but rather a resounding victory because "We're tough guys!" If you repeatedly have to tell people you're tough guys, you're not tough guys.

Political activist Chris Kluwe sized it up best yesterday when he described what happened as the undoing of 100 years of US foreign policy success.  The only change I would make is that it's actually closer to 110 years. The United States' reputation is in the absolute dumpster, with many European countries (and Canada) meeting hours after the debacle, intentionally without the US. Not a single one of our traditional allies thinks the US can be trusted with a spoon, let alone being put in the front of all foreign policy decisions.

If I'm China, I'm sprinting into Ukraine, offering anything they need for 1/10th of the US' demands, instantly becoming the new sole world power countries turn to in a time of crisis. I also guarantee Russia would IMMEDIATELY withdraw from Ukraine, as they don't have the military to fight in Ukraine (especially if China was involved) for much longer. 

Yesterday will be a before and after moment in most history books.  The United States is now the world's villain, and I don't blame them for thinking that way.  It's embarrassing to be a US citizen today. 

Meanwhile, a majority of the national news media, after witnessing what actually happened, have pointedly reported on the disaster by leading with the Trump Administration's narrative; laughable lies and a desperate re-imagining of what really happened. They are clearly part of Trump's armada. It'd be like if the Hindenberg crashed, and after seeing the devastation, them reporting on it with "The Trump Administration has reported a minor blimp accident happened, that it's really not that bad, but it's also all Joe Biden and Zelenskyy's fault." 

God help us all!

The Friday Link for 2/28/25

Dear Lord, what a day.  What a week...

Friday is looking a little darker. Trump today intentionally undid 100 years of American foreign policy with a poorly orchestrated and criminally misguided attack on Zelensky in the Oval Office.  The damage done today will be felt for decades. The entire world of decent people now hates the USA, but I guess Vlad Putin loves us.  That's like hearing you're the top friend request from Jeffery Epstein. And in both cases, Trump is smiling.

Let's start this week with something very dirty.  Jonathon Pie is a British comedian who does news segment bits, and (***WARNING***) he uses a lot of dirty language. This is from last week, but it still applies today as Trump has shown he is worse than Neville Chamberlain at foreign relations. Considering how bad today went, he's leaps and bounds worse than when this was recorded a week ago. 

Once again, warning.  A LOT of bad Language! 


Also from the rebel side of things, John Oliver.  I've often posted his clips on the Friday Link, but this week, here is the 60 Minutes segment from last Sunday.  The story of the one live show dying a pathetic death is fantastic. 


And finally tonight, Camels are fascinating! True Facts talks about all the adaptions the camel has evolved so that they can survive for extended periods out in the desert.  And they do so with plenty of jokes too. 


Trump has made us the world's enemy.  Hunker down and prepare, as this is going to get really bad before it gets any better.

PLEASE get vaccinated! 






The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/27/25

After Trump and his Administration REPEATEDLY called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky a "Dictator," the British media lit him up at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

It wasn't going great for Trump anyway, as PM Starmer had to correct Trump, as French President Emmanuel Macron had to earlier this week, that Ukraine was only getting loans from Europe while Biden had given money to Ukraine outright.  Both Prime Ministers corrected Trump to his face that that was a lie and that Europe had indeed given more money to Ukraine than the USA. 

Trump insisted he and Zelensky are now best buddies, as the British media pounced and asked him if he stood by his description of Zelensky as a "dictator."  Eventually, Trump, when cornered, said, "Um...did I say that? I can't believe I said that. Next question."

He said it little more than a week ago.

If this was Biden, the national news media would be running with "Biden can't remember basic facts about what he said a week ago!"

With Trump, the national news media is basically, "Trump...what a scamp!"







Thursday, February 27, 2025

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/26/25

Yesterday, Trump (on Truth Social) not only claimed ot have had the most successful first month in office EVER (a statement that should have been given above-the-fold headline status: "Trump Rants Delusional") but he then goes onto imply that he is going to write a law banning any article or book critical of him.

Yes, it's clear this is trolling, but it still should create MASSIVE outrage.  People have started insisting "it's only trolling" as either a way to validate the unacceptable claims or to avoid confronting the evil growing in our presence.

Republicans react to this and say, "He's just trying to get under the skin of the Libs.  And MISSIION ACCOMPLISHED," without ever condemning the concept of what Trump just proposed.

Democrats try to argue it's a waste of our time to address and condemn such statements, first because they are tired of it all, but also because they are afraid.

This is not about Trump.  This is about us! WE have allowed Trump to create a standard that prevents him from being held accountable!

If Joe Biden had suggested the same thing, Republicans would be red veined, spittle-spewing, furious, and demanding immediate committee investigations into his authoritarian suggestion.  More egregiously, most Democrats would HARSHLY condemn a Democrat for suggesting the same thing, the same people who insist, "Ignore what Trump is saying."

We HAVE TO stop accepting this nonchalant authoritarianism as "normal!"

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/25/25

Sometimes it's not what they did do, but rather what they didn't do.

Rep. Cory Mills from Florida is exactly what MAGA truly is.  Last week, the married Representative was in a physical confrontation with his mistress at a condo in DC.  He, BY HIS OWN ADMISSION, told police officers he had gotten physical with his mistress. Police officers arrived and discovered fresh bruises on the mistress' arms. On a recorded phone call, Mills is heard telling the mistress to lie about how the bruises happened. 

The police (for some reason) did not arrest Mills at that point but instead sent an arrest warrant to Trump's US attorney for DC, Ed Martin.  It came to light yesterday that Martin refused to sign off on the warrant, sending the case back for further investigation.

If a black man was arrested with the 1/10th of the evidence and accusations we already can positively place on Mills, not only would Martin have signed off on the warrant, but they'd be puffing their chest demanding no bail, an immediate judicial hearing, and a quickly approved, harsh plea deal thrust into the accused face. 

A MAGA bro?  "Dude, he's just letting off some steam."

MAGA means beating women with no consequences.
