cococandy:That bill, would be nice to know how many pages it was and how many touched on the FEMA funding. If you knew a bottle of cyanide had been emptied into the newly renamed Gulf of America, would you go swimming there? |

Trump ally attorney Mike Davis minces no words - Judge Merchan ass in jail or back to Colombia cartels. Mike Davis: I’m glad the Democrats had their cathartic sentencing today because it is going to backfire—and backfire spectacularly. Right now, the Democrats think they’re the hunters. And guess what? On January 20th at noon, they’re going to become the hunted. I’m going to make damn sure of that as a private citizen at the Article 3 Project, exercising my God-given right to speak and to lobby government. I’m going to make goddamn sure the Trump 47 Justice Department opens a criminal probe. I’m going to make damn sure that happens. I’m going to make that my very public advocacy every day until Juan Merchan’s ass is in prison. Benny Johnson: Can you please walk me through what potential charges would be brought against Juan Merchan in this case? You say you want to throw his ass in prison. Walk me through the landscape there, Mike. Mike Davis: I want to throw his third-world, sexist, trash ass in prison and then revoke his citizenship and send him back to the Cali cartel or wherever the hell he came from in Colombia. Let me tell you what it is: it’s 18 U.S.C. Section 241, Conspiracy Against Rights—a very serious federal civil rights felony. When you politicize and weaponize intel agencies and law enforcement to go after your political enemies for non-crimes, which is exactly what happened here, you have committed that very serious federal civil rights felony. Judges are not immune from 18 U.S.C. Section 241. I would say to Juanita, Juanito, or whatever the hell this judge’s name is—this third-world Marxist trash—that you better lawyer up, buddy, because there has to be a criminal probe. You are corrupt, you are partisan, you are dangerous. You took our countryto the brink, and your adult daughter, Lauren Merchan, made a lot of money off this while you sat on this case. There’s a reason they picked you—because you are a stooge. You’re just like Alvin Bragg, Tish James, Matthew Colangelo, Fani Willis, and Nathan Wade. You guys are just the bottom of the barrel—lawyers and judges—the dumbest people in the legal system. Mike Davis: So the Democrats can use you and manipulate you like puppets. For example, putting your adult daughter, Lauren, on Democrat payroll and making her a lot of money, which is corruption by Judge Merchan to stay on this case. |

Ibime:They know this. That “whole but Americans chose him because he’s wonderful” is a way to avoid addressing the ugliness that he is and they know he is. And of course denialism of the underlying ‘isms’ why his opponent was unacceptable to them. We’re not kids. |

basilico:I’m assuming they’re lawmakers too and know how to introduce bills of their own. If they found the bill had stuff they didn’t like, they could maybe just maybe introduce their own bill that funded fema without any of the other stuff the they didn’t like? 🙄 Do you know they consistently vote against any sort of emergency preparedness bill, pandemic relief measures etc. one of the things Trump did in office was to dissolve/reshuffle the unit Obama set up to look into pandemics. there wasn’t a pandemic at the time so of course he thought they weren’t important. Typical of a short sighted bloated ego maniac like him who doesn’t listen to anyone. He basically destroyed the unit and never followed the pandemic playbook left to him by Obama. The same playbook that was used to control Ebola. Of course when shit hit the fan, he lied that Obama never left him anything to handle pandemics. Just as all of them are voting against fema. But when shit hits the fan, they go on their social media to lie to their low IQ followers about how the previous administration never left anything to help them fight. Just a bunch of compunctionless bare faced liars. |

budaatum:He’s absolutely right. Every natural disaster is an opportunity for Maga to begin their divisive rhetoric. Even when it happens in their states, they lie that they are not getting any help, that fema never came, that the money is being given to immigrants, they lead their followers astray. Some of them are led into not accepting help that comes their way due to gross misinformation. MAGA is a mental illness. A whole president-elect is on the internet yelling Newscum on his social media handle to his lobotomized supporters while other leaders are showing support. |

Not going to speak to much on foreign politics that I’m not familiar with but it seems these right wingers are just canker wherever they find themselves. Causing division and chaos. Not surprised Thousands of protesters gathered in Paris to celebrate the death of French far-right figure Jean-Marie Le Pen.

In this age of anxious uncertainty, is western progressive democracy experiencing just another regular swing of the political pendulum – this time from centre-left to right and hard right? Or is it facing something unprecedented? https://www.irishtimes.com/world/2025/01/11/is-the-west-experiencing-just-another-swing-of-the-political-pendulum-or-is-trump-20-a-sign-of-something-darker/ |

basilico:Note that your original claim was that he changed his rhetoric from taxing millionaires to billionaires, because he became a millionaire. You were attempting to make a hypocrisy argument about how he changed his rhetoric and policy to exclude himself. You still haven't proved that change, infact you presented the opposite. Now, you're back at "he still wants to tax millionaires" but only those with over 38m. My is argument if he is in, or should he falls under his own category of wealthy millionaire according to his policy position he'd be paying more in taxes aswell. There is zero hypocrisy here. Better be warned when challenging me I don't say anything without some form of backup.You still haven't provided evidence that he aquired his wealth through some form of corruption or malpractice. He earned his wealth and became a millionaire primarily through his book sells by the way. Also are you complaining that an elected official was being paid their salary? https://theweek.com/speedreads/834228/bernie-sanders-says-millionaire-like-write-bestselling-book Communists came to power wailing over the bourgeoisie, only for them to concentrate all wealth in their hands. They get the poor masses to riot and overthrow the govts.As opposed to capitalists who aren't known for concentrating wealth in their hands, owning/being the ruling class, eliminating meaningful opposition and being the wealthiest in their countries? Bernie is far from a communist, your brain is just so fragged from being far-right that anything slightly left of Biden is the second coming of Lenin to you. Or you just don't know what the word means. And neither do I subscribe to or agree with "Communism"(marxist-leninism) |

In an escalation of discontent among the highest-profile far-right followers of Donald Trump, his former adviser Steve Bannon has called Trump’s newest favorite, Elon Musk, “racist” and a “truly evil guy”, pledging to “take this guy down” and kick him out of the Maga movement. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/12/steve-bannon-calls-elon-musk-racist

cococandy:A blow torch is not a natural disaster re the arsonist arrested starting up fires. When Trump told them to clear under brush they mocked him. I'll revisit ... Updated . This sums up the California fires. Unbelievable. They cut the funding of the firefighters. They didn’t top off the reservoirs for the fire hydrants. They didn’t turn off the power immediately. They don’t clear underbrush. They don’t do controlled burns. They haven’t built any new dams or reservoirs. They let rain run off simply run off. And they divert water away from the farmers. Oh and they actually blew up FOUR dams so the rivers could once again run through reservations. AND! they sent firefighting equipment to Ukraine. Now I bring in my Conspiracy theories copied from elsewhere. Who been planning to build smart city , where there is public transit ,noone owns an automobile and everything you need is 15 minutes away. People walk ,walking is healthy or they ride bicycles. When Maui went down in flames there was talk of a smart city by..... Blackrock. Post See new posts Conversation Houman David Hemmati, MD, PhD @houmanhemmati 🔥🔥🔥 THIS SHOULD FRIGHTEN YOU: @GavinNewsom said re: his “Marshall Plan”: “We already have a team reimagining LA 2.0.” WHAT? He’s ALREADY had that team. Pre-fire. This means no single family zoning, public transit for ALL, equity/climate/DEI agenda. We need new leaders, not a new LA. LA isn’t perfect but it’s just FINE. It’s NEWSOM who’s responsible for many of our problems. He’s the LAST person to fix them. And no he’s NOT using the loss of much of LA as an opportunity (as he did with COVID) to create a “new normal.” YOU weren’t elected to reimagine ANYTHING. You were elected to keep us safe (failed), manage our taxes responsibly (failed), educate kids (failed)… Your term is over, either by resignation or recall. Either way, pack your bags.

I'm salivating at the thought that from day one Trump proves Joe Biden was rigged in. Implication Every action of his is invalidated. From policies, Executive Orders, appointments esp judicial rulings revoked on a case by case basis. Trump declares himself 45,46 and 47th president . Congress compensates him by clearing him to run as 48th unopposed as reparations. Liberal tears fill up the oceans, lakes and seas. Beach homes get sold for pennies. Am allowed to dream. |

feedthenation:Feedthenation. Trump didn't do this didn't do that so he won't do this or that. This time FBI is not investigating him, he is the one on the warpath. He doesn't have to do it. Several special prosecutors will unearth every dirty trick used to prevent his return to the oval office. Hegseth is warming up to the idea of recalling Gen Milley and charging him in a court martial. He was talking to China and others behind the commander in chief informing them he would be warn them if Trump launched an attack. Milley was also the main reason why National Guards men were delayed for over 3 hours on Jan 6. Gee, I'm so looking forward to media lies being debunked. |
