Politicians of every kind are the driving force behind these three core evils.

Aint that a fact.

Jerome Powell says more rate hikes are coming until the Fed crushes the jobs market.

Even as Dark Jerome admits the Fed doesn’t know what it's doing -- “we are navigating by the stars under cloudy skies."

So millions of Americans must lose their jobs so Jerome can cover his ass for pumping out $4 trillion in fake money.

Welcome to the banana republic, have some bananas.

It's not the question whether a country has turn into a banana republic, it's the question about the state of the bananas.

Fresh or rotten.

A Federal lawsuit has been filed in Florida to disqualify Trump from running based on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.

[Jeff-Groves]

We need Section 4 of the 25th Amendment implemented.

Worried about what? We have been locked in a trade war with China since 2018 and just last month or so Secretary Blinken came right out and accused Xi of being a dictator.

Nothing has changed since Trump started it and warned everyone it’s going to hurt a lot before it gets better. I’d wager we’re sending Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo over there because one: Biden is to feeble to form a sentence much less negotiate a treaty and two she’s there to inquire face to face if they’re ready to make some concessions. If not, we put their nuts back in the vice and continue to squeeze.

[Jeff-Groves]

You mention treaty around Joe and he probably hears Treat and asks for Ice Cream.
Then asks for a young girl to bring it to him so he can sniff her.

Has God spoken?

From his summer home in New Jersey, former President Donald Trump dictated to the House Republicans that it was time for them to impeach President Joe Biden.

Taking to his personal social media website, Truth Social, on Sunday, Trump claimed that the House has already "proven" that Biden broke the law and as such it was time for them to move.

"You don’t need a long INQUIRY to prove it, it’s already proven," he ranted. "These lowlifes Impeached me TWICE (I WON!), and Indicted me FOUR TIMES - For NOTHING! Either IMPEACH the BUM, or fade into OBLIVION. THEY DID IT TO US!"

...er,...um,..did we all miss something? Wasn't the above mugshot taken when The Chump was actually, you know, surrendering for his arrest at a courthouse on criminal charges? I guess "NEVER" has a very short shelf life...


Meanwhile, back at the courthouse (or at least one of them), The Chump's defense lawyer's failed to get their way and got their behinds handed to them by the judge; efforts to delay the trial until April 2026 were stymied when the judge pointed out (and pointedly) defense lawyers claims the mass of documents to be reviewed were not daunting given that a great many of the document were either electronically preserved and or searchable via databases and, further, a vast amount of the documents were actually sourced from the defendant's own records, openly available to and already provided by, the defense team; maybe The Chump is gonna have to hire some new lawyers at the Trumpettes' expense...


May it be suggested...?...

For all the good it does Trump, I don't think Dewey, Cheatem & Howe could do any worse.

Isn't it telling, how Trump and his political affiliates try to get Judges and AG's fired, instead of proving they did nothing wrong as they claim daily, and loudly on social media and media outlets? There is only one set of laws even if you think it's a two-tiered justice system. It is, by the way. Trump is getting treated far better than any other criminal defendant in the country.
