As you can plainly see, God spared his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, while causing only a small wound on his ear, like a stigmata of the ear, because God so dearly loved him that He deflected a deadly bullet and gave an innocent member of the audience, seated behind the president, a quick pass to heaven, so that His imperfect vessel could be miraculously spared and go on to be reelected as the most righteous president, the most righteous leader of any country, in human history. Amen.
Meanwhile, vicious critics continue to attack him, without mercy, seemingly every second. Thankfully, he can defend himself, including against those who brutally gouged a 250 foot long gash at the bottom of the beautiful reflecting pool in DC to destroy his donor’s perfect work restoring the historic pool to its pristine 1922 beauty:
Friday night, Trump blamed “Radical Left Lunatics, most likely Dumocats [sic], who have spent their lives trying to ruin our Country,” for “some real problems with Vandalism at the beautiful Reflecting Pool.” By this evening, he was blaming “multiple individuals for vandalizing our Nations magnificent Reflecting Poll [sic]. Who would do such a thing? These are very serious crimes having to do with the destruction of National Monuments. Years in jail! Work will begin immediately on its repair.” Source
Psychiatrist Robert J. Lifton, in The Nazi Doctors, pointed out that doctors were the first professional group in Germany to fully Nazify. German doctors did this voluntarily, assertively, as soon as Hitler was in power. No Jews, all doctors with “Jewish blood” out, every German doctor had to a loyal member of the Nazi party to practice medicine in Germany.
Not surprising to me that doctors were the first, especially in light of some of the arrogant, contemptuous, corporate medical experts I’ve seen in the last few years, including one actual psychopath. See also the complicity of the American Psychiatric Association in suppressing the findings of dozens of psychiatrists, including Lifton, in regard to the dangerous instability of Donald J. Trump during his first term. It’s not my point here to bash doctors, although many highly admired doctors are self-involved schmucks and the opposite of healers.
I would guess, without any evidence at the moment (just like the Trump legal eagles in their false charging affidavits), that German lawyers were the second German profession to fully Nazify themselves. Public distaste for lawyers needs no elaboration, but there is a special breed that embraces fascists in a democracy.
The legal and medical professions are full of ambitious, competitive, self-aggrandizing people (as well as many people of fine character and the best motives). Put a Nazi regime in charge of their careers and many (the worst of them), once the Nazi has solidified power and control, will become more fervent Nazis than the Leader himself. This is observable throughout history.
It is plainly observable with Trump’s craven, lying criminal defense team at the Department of Justice. Their bottom shelf lawyers (many of the best at DOJ have quit or been fired for things like taking their ethical duties seriously, or doing their jobs on a nonpartisan basis) torment and prosecute the enemies of their enraged, paranoid master. They do this at the whim of a man who is awake ranting on social media nonstop throughout the night, and sleeps through meetings and even the staged $60,000,000 gladiatorial event the 80 year-old birthday boy threw for himself on the south law of the White House. That Mr. Trump is insane is also easily observable (sorry, American Psychiatric Association).
The coverup of crimes, which indicates a consciousness of guilt that is admissible against defendants in criminal prosecutions, is often worse than the crimes being hidden. In Trump’s case, both are heinous. He also has an unbroken lifelong pattern and practice of committing crimes and covering them up. Hence the “settlement” of his fraudulent case against his own IRS, an attempt to make sure any of his likely frauds against the IRS (and the American taxpayers) remain unpunished, in perpetuity.
A group of the president’s sycophants met in panicked secret meetings to strategize how to protect the Orange Polyp (and, more importantly, their own careers) from what is revealed about his behavior in the 6,000,000 documents of the Epstein files. Against the advice of anyone who knew anything about the strategic use of military force, Trump attacked Iran, based on lies and in support of a fellow autocrat, Bibi Netanyahu, a plague on the world in his own right. The mass murder Trump unleashed was a crime against humanity. The “memorandum of understanding” his expert real estate baron negotiators hammered out with Iran appears to be unconditional surrender to Iran. For starters, it gives Iran exponentially more billions, and more future power, than the JCPOA, Obama’s hated deal did. So, why not keep it secret? It is a great triumph, that Trump so quickly forced Iran to its knees!
The worst part of all this, to me, is the violent, hate-inspiring lies. Nazism, like all fascist movements, is founded on lies and depends on people believing those lies. White Supremacy? Trump rips up a deal painstakingly negotiated by skilled diplomats and scientists because it was signed under a Black president. One of Obama’s parents was “white”, of course, which I mention because only in a racist society does this need to be said (he said, triggering racists who believe only whites can be persecuted).
Trump ripping up Obama’s JCPOA is white supremacy in a nutshell. Rip up the Black guy’s carefully considered plan, hammered out by experts over the course of several years (and cosigned by Russia, China, the EU and other nations), because the president at the time was a fucking “n-word,” as the KKK will always insist. Send two completely unqualified real-estate billionaires to quickly cover up your failed mass bombing of Iran after shredding the deal, claim victory and unconditional surrender — while not revealing the terms of the memorandum of understanding. An enraged white supremacist, without any need for thought beforehand, reflexively joins his fellow white supremacist in illegally mass murdering the innocent brown people whose repressive government signed the deal with the Black guy. Maybe the worst part, beyond even the lying, is the vicious, heedless, proud stupidity of these race-obsessed fascists.
Trump’s government lawyers (leaving aside their oath to support the Constitution and protect the rights of citizens, not “the boss”), like all lawyers, are considered officers of the court. As officers of the court hey are bound by oath to tell the truth, to not resort to scumbag tactics, not to bring frivolous charges without evidence against people the boss instructs them to investigate and prosecute, not to lie to grand juries, or redact their lies when a judge forces them to turn over grand jury transcripts (unheard of with any previous administration). The Department of Justice was always given the “presumption of regularity” from federal judges. Judges took the DOJ at its word in all previous administrations. In the administration of the Lyin’ King — there is no longer the presumption that the poisonous toads King Turd sends to court to torture his enemies are telling the truth. Latest case in point:
Today U.S. attorney for the District of Minnesota Daniel Rosen announced his office was charging fifteen people with conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers over their behavior during the federal immigration crackdown in Minneapolis last year that led to the deaths of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Rosen alleges that the defendants are part of two “antifa” groups that “violently oppose immigration law enforcement.”
At the press conference about the charges, prosecutors introduced a Facebook post from one of the accused that said: “We need to become ungovernable.” Journalist Aaron Rupar noted: “Oh, so they have NOTHING nothing.” It’s actually even more embarrassing than that: Trump attended the Libertarian National Convention in 2024 when its theme was “Become Ungovernable,” and stood in front of the banner bearing that slogan, so the idea that the phrase is part of a criminal conspiracy will be awkward to argue.
From Minneapolis, Matt Sepic of MPR News reported that Rosen said the people were “charged not for what they said but what they did.” But Rosen did not answer questions about whether any law enforcement officers were injured and said evidence would come out later. Sepic notes that federal prosecutors charged thirty-six people with assaulting or impeding immigration agents in December and January, but have now dropped eighteen of the cases entirely and eleven more through nonprosecution agreements. Sepic notes that Magistrate Judge David Schultz in April called one of the prosecutors’ charging documents a “false affidavit.”source
Obedience to a constantly raging, racist idiot is abhorrent to decency, democracy and the rule of law. Of course, there will always be lawyers (think fucking Todd Blanche, Emil Bove, Pam Bondi) who will do the bidding of the man in power — no matter how immoral, illegal or otherwise repugnant. Among German lawyers under Mr. Hitler the principle was Führerworte haben Gesetzeskraft –– the Leader’s every fart has the force of law. This is most horrible when the Leader is an insanely enraged and prodigiously flatulent motherfucker.
Understand, first of all, why people lie. If the truth is embarrassing, especially if it’s humiliating, someone with a propensity to lie will always lie. If confronted about the lie, they will lie again, make you the liar for accusing them of lying.
This hideous, maddening cycle will be familiar to anyone who has ever been close to, or worked for, someone who can never be wrong no matter what. If you can’t be wrong, and the facts clearly show you are, then the facts are fucking liars and so are you for bringing up those lies.
Trump is perhaps the most prolific compulsive liar in American history. He’s up there with the all-time heavyweight liars of world history. He may be number one (though, it is said, he smells like number two). If he gets his ass kicked in an election, obviously, the election was rigged, he was cheated out of a victory he actually won by a landslide, was the victim of a massive bipartisan fraud, and when you are the victim of fraud, as he told his enraged crowd on January 6th (a day of love, obviously), you get to play by very different rules. You fight like hell to make your truth the real truth and violence is totally justified because the liars who cheated you won by being scumbags who viciously rigged everything against you and deserve whatever they get, including death.
Picture working for a vengeful, childish asshole like this guy. Lying is a condition of employment. You can’t tell the truth. If you do, the boss will fly into a rage. When asked if Biden won the 2020 election you deliver the company line “well, he was sworn in as president on January 20, 2021…”. When pressed on whether Biden won you must not give an inch, must continue this line of idiotic equivocation. If you say “yes, senator, Biden won…” then you are out of a job, out of the party, out of the cult, out of business, kaput. Plus, you face an excellent chance of death threats on your phone day and night. Everybody who works for Trump knows this.
Still, sometimes there are slip ups, like this, from a recent convert to MAGA spokesman for those furious that Obama “gave” Iran $1.6B in the JCPOA deal where Iran agreed not to develop nuclear weapons.
Trump is trying to cover over the release of $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets [in his birthday Memo of Understanding — not a final agreement] by saying “no money will exchange hands.” But this morning, Vice President J.D. Vance told CBS that in addition to that $24 billion, Iran will also have access to $300 billion in funds for reconstruction. source
Oopsie. Et tu, CBS?
Liars lie, that’s not news. I guess the news is that the central characters of Trump’s inner circle appear to have been captured on tape, discussing various illegal ways to allow the president to do whatever pops into his insane head. If Stephen Miller, our foremost, infernally powerful, Jewish Nazi, orders 3,000 brown immigrants captured, detained and deported daily, and the boss loves the idea, then… fuck it, suspend habeas corpus (the right to a hearing to contest your confinement)… change administrative rules to make a loophole to avoid giving habeas corpus rights to those illegally detained, invoke the Insurrection Act… kill more “paid protesters” like Renee Good and Alex Pretti…
The squealing among Trump’s inner circle about the New York Times report on secret meetings in the Situation Room (without the president present) that someone tapped into our nation’s most secure SCIF (sensitive compartmented information facility) is an unintentional admission, as Lawrence McDonnell points out, that the reporting is super accurate. NY Times reporters Haberman and Swan couldn’t have transcribed all those verbatim quotes without a recording.
More lies are now needed to cover the lying lies that some liar recorded and made them lie in their own voices on a tape that doesn’t exist, like Epstein, who never actually existed, never knew the president, never shared any “wonderful secrets” with him — and the president certainly wasn’t rough with fourteen year-olds’ nipples, where did those stupid, lying quotes come from and, more to the point, who was the traitorous leaker? — the boss was always a gentle lover who always had consent from every woman and girl he ever touched — no, wait, he never touched anybody! Epstein and those little bitches are all LIARS!!!
Trump is not playing five dimensional chess, he doesn’t even know what a game is. Point out that he just took a crap in his pants and he will angrily scream: “NO! YOOOO took a crap in my pants!!!!” I know you are, but what am I? Another win for the Winner-in-Chief.
Early this morning, Trump posted on social media: “On July 4th, at The Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument, in beautiful and safe Washington D.C., we are going to host the most spectacular TRUMP RALLY of them all, a ‘TRIBUTE TO AMERICA.’”source
Be there, fans, will be wild!There should be, literally, hundreds there, mad as hell and ready to rumble. You go, Mr. President, sir!
Now it’s no longer taboo, in light of mountains of evidence in support of the comparison, to refer to Todd Blanche, Stephen Miller, Lyin’ Ted, MAGA Mike, Hegseth, Lutnick, Bessent, RFK Jr,. Elon Musk, Jared Kushner, Trump and his accursed spawn, as Nazis. Nazis will be Nazis, and they always act the same way — indomitable and contemptuous of so-called decency (Hitler called conscience a “Jewish invention”). The contempt Trump and his best people proudly show for law and the ideals our country was founded on was not exceeded by the most infamously contemptuous of the Nazis. Think Hermann Göring. They have all demonstrated that they will follow any insane order from their mad leader, justify protecting a network of pedophiles, a nationwide chain of concentration camps, every voter suppression effort imaginable and the cold blooded murder of American citizens in their cars, on the street.
It’s not even a news story, apparently, when these floundering fascists (in this case Trump, Blanche and Trump’s children) openly defy a federal judge’s order to produce their argument for why their fake “settlement” of a non-case, for their sole, corrupt benefit, was not a fraud on the court. June 12 was the deadline for Trump and Blanche to defend their corrupt, bogus, self-dealing “settlements”. I was very much looking forward to reading their stuttering, incoherent arguments. No argument was submitted at the deadline.
[Correction, there was a submission, not responsive to any of the judge’s three major questions Trump/DOJ were required to answer, though it was submitted late on June 12 (after closing time, apparently). I learned this from Michael Popok on the Meidas Touch network. Bloomberg alone seems to have reported on Trump’s denial of fraud and his attack dog lawyer Alejandro Brito’s attack on the judge, as well as the 35 retired federal judge’s who intervened to remind the judge she still had jurisdiction over the “case”.I haven’t been able to find a copy of this legal masterpiece on-line.]
The Trump DOJ essentially in contempt of a federal court order produced crickets from mass media. No real update on the story since Trump and his DOJ followed federal appellate judge Emil Bove’s advice (from before his lifetime confirmation, when he was number 3 at DOJ) and told a federal judge to go fuck herself.AI had this to say (incorrectly, as it turned out, apparently they filed it late on June 12th)
Absolutely nobody but Michael Popok at Meidas Touch is reporting on this, as though this eye-poppingly criminal conspiracy to defraud the court to further enrich the historically corrupt Mr. Trump is not a subject of even minor public interest.
Of course, in fairness to everybody — there were so many other stories demanding attention in the realm of Trumpish impostures. News broke about a panicked damage control meeting in the Situation Room (secretly, and illegally, recorded by someone there) to strategize about how to protect Trump for accountability for the many wonderful secrets he shared with his best friend, suspiciously suicided incarnation of evil Jeffery Epstein. The demented birthday boy yesterday used the Lincoln Memorial, which his gigantic Arc de Trump will dwarf and obscure the view of from Arlington National Cemetery, as a backdrop for his glorious gladiator fight in a $60,000,000 (including $700,000 to restore the damage to the lawn) cage built on the south lawn of the White House to celebrate his birthday. He gave UFC fighters the honor guard pomp usually reserved for foreign dignitaries and the funerals of top military commanders.
Workers took his name off The Kennedy Center, as ordered, with Trump kicking and screaming, incoherently litigating and in the end demanding an extra 12 hours to do it, but a huge curtain remains in place so nobody can photograph the absence of the insane orange two year-old’s name. He promised, again, that a big birthday deal with Iran is being signed, He bombed Iran, a nation he bombed with no legal justification and has continually branded the aggressor, in coordination with his friend Netanyahu, who he now describes as a difficult man. Meanwhile, the troubling theocrats in Iran continue to be much more credible on the subject of “peace talks” than the Orange Polyp and his chorus of performative liars.
Trump and his lackies are spraying the firehose of mendacity, with the insane Tulsi Gabbard, friend of Assad and Putin, suddenly chiming in about US biolabs in 30 countries, including Ukraine, that Fauci is somehow responsible for. Trump is madly posting gibberish every moment he’s awake, even as he continually falls asleep in public and appears to be dying — though 22 doctors recently signed off on his bill of perfect health. He has the heart of a 65 year-old, we are to believe.
His MAGA suck-ups in Congress also snuck through, at 4 a.m., another 70 BILLION dollars for his masked shock troops who will not be required to abide by the US Constitution. ICE will continue to wear masks, break car windows, illegally enter homes, schools, courts and churches without judicial warrants, indefinitely detain people who have committed no crime, keep them in abusive privately owned concentration camps kept secret from the public, even murder American citizens on video, when necessary and proper.
So, I suppose we can forgive the press (and thank Bloomberg and Meidas Touch) for not taking a single note of his missed June 12 deadline for Trump to explain to the court why he should not be punished for filing a fake lawsuit against an agency he controls, and giving himself and his accursed children (and all of their associates) a preemptive pardon for all past frauds on the IRS/US Treasury in a “settlement” worth probably hundreds of millions for a long history of tax chicanery. All I can say is “USA! USA!!!” Trump looks more fucked every day.
The proud, the few, the fewer and fewer, Trump’s increasingly less competent Department of Justice. Trump’s childishly vindictive reign — he is our retribution, after all, as promised — (and, arguably, America’s punishment for centuries of racism, slavery, mass murder of the indigenous people, sexism, tolerance of pedophilia, consequence-free rape and so on) requires the unquestioning loyalty of unprincipled men and women (almost overwhelmingly white and almost all born male) who will do literally anything for proximity to power.
If a law needs breaking, they must be prepared to defiantly break it. If an honest answer to the court will make the boss look bad, and hamper “his” vengeful, cruel and illegal “agenda” — lie. As federal appeals judge for life Emil Bove instructed his attorneys going into court to defend the illegal detentions and deportations of several hundred men, be prepared to say “fuck you” to nosy federal Judge Boasberg if he tries to push back against illegal government tactics. Thousands of career lawyers in the Department of Justice have either been forced out, fired (scores for prosecuting January 6 rioters or working with Jack Smith — same with FBI agents)or demoted for lack of, I don’t know the German word for it, unlimited zeal for the Leader’s every corrupt and vicious whim. The New York Times notes:
Things have gotten so ugly with the openly corrupt Trump/Charles Koch/Heritage Foundation/Federalist Society agenda, and its in-your-fucking-face AI generated dump of tons of excrement on America, that even the NY Times has felt empowered to be a little saucy with her headlines. Picture the clucking, matronly tone of voice delivering, after the pause indicated by the comma, ” and it stings.” Shaking her head, pitying you: “it stings, doesn’t it? I know, the truth hurts…”
Any judge ruling against the president’s/Project 2025’s “agenda” is deemed a dangerous, sick, partisan hack activist judge. Here’s former Krisi Noem spokesperson, from a few months back, when she defended the unconstitutional practices of the Department of Homeland Security:
In February, then–DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin explained away the administration’s dismal record by saying that “many activist judges have attempted to thwart President Trump from fulfilling the American people’s mandate for mass deportations.”source
We, you and I, elected Mr. Trump (by a landslide and, coincidentally, a victory, by almost identical margins, in all seven swing states) and gave him a mandate to open a nationwide system of brutal concentration camps to house millions of “illegals” of all ages (and the five year-olds are as dangerous as the 75 year-olds, aren’t they?). That’s exactly why we put the man in power, isn’t it? That’s democracy and if you don’t like it, GEO group has a nice, damp cement cell you can share with twelve other cucks, with a nice bowl of maggot-filled mush twice a day if you’re hungry.
You see, people like Trump, Koch, the insane chainsaw wielding Musk, hate fueled zombie Stephen Miller, can NEVER BE WRONG ABOUT ANYTHING. You must understand this. They are capable of committing unthinkable acts to never be wrong, to prevail, to try to bring about the triumph of their will.
Trump can muse at a news conference about how weird it would be to sue himself, then a few months later he can sue himself, settle with himself (with a deal that ends all IRS investigations into years of his tax fraud, and his family’s — retroactively, prospectively and in perpetuity) and attack the judicial process that calls bullshit on his bullshit.
If it comes out of your ass, sir, and it smells like shit, and when you smear it on the wall it looks like shit, it’s unlikely to be anything else. The same goes for the excrement that pours out of your pie hole, sir.
When the judge in Trump et al v. The Internal Revenue Service saw Trump quickly withdraw the baseless, fraudulent lawsuit the day before the judge would have dismissed it as a baseless, fraudulent lawsuit — and thrown out the clearly fake “settlements” that Trump claims ended the suit, she noted in her decision that no settlement had been filed with the court, as is required. The two-part “settlement” only came out after Trump dismissed the case against himself.
Undaunted Trump’s lawyers, the Acting Attorney General most prominent among them, insisted over and over, in public, that the illegal seizure of almost two billion dollars in taxpayer funds to compensate Trump allies and innocent victims of Biden’s DOJ vindictively prosecuted and convicted, or forced to plead guilty, to Trumped up charges of breaking into the Capitol, assaulting police, respectfully defecating in the halls of Congress, chanting “Hang Mike Pence” after constructing a gallows outside the Capitol, assaulting those defending the joint session of Congress as members and their staff fled for their lives, conspiring to bring weapons across from Virginia for a fully armed assault, etc. was completely above board, He also defended the second half of the “settlement” released the day after the slush fund was created, the one that said the IRS can never investigate Trump for anything, ever. Blanche claims that his order that the IRS will never investigate any person or entity associated with Trump, his children or the Trump organization is 100% legal and binding, now and forever. He also claims it does not give anyone “blanket immunity”. I have to say, Blanche is a fucking moron, though one must admire his doglike brazeness, I suppose.
When the judge reopened the case to hold a hearing on the clear fraud on the court and the conspiracy to bring about these fake “settlements”, after a filing by 35 retired federal judges of urged her to do so [1], TACO Trump immediately withdrew the slush fund — though Blanche, as pathetic a suck up as I’ve ever seen in politics, insists his order that the IRS never investigate anyone related to Trump will stand for all time, and that there is nothing foul or in the least bit irregular or suspicious about the order. Just don’t hold it too close to your nose.
[1] 35 retired federal judges were not having this shit, and their motion to the judge who consented to dismissing the case is worth reading in its entirety. It is beautifully written and perfectly argues a flawless point, the judge who dismissed the case is legally permitted to, and must, reopen Trump’s fake case for a hearing on a fraud against the Court. The next day she did. Trump’s “answer” to conspiracy to commit fraud on the court is due on June 12, two days before the handsome rascal turns an athletic eighty years old. I told a nurse yesterday that I plan to celebrate my birthday by hosting a cage match on somebody else’s lawn. Hey, if you can do it, why not?
People have to do things they may not want to do to please their boss, particularly if your boss is an unreasonable, demanding asshole. When your boss is Donald Trump, you sometimes are asked to do extreme things, illegal things. If you do them, you keep your job (for the moment). So you do things like this:
Federal judges have been accusing [Trump DOJ] prosecutors of misconduct, most recently in a case last week in Chicago in which a grand jury indicted six people, including a Democratic congressional candidate, for interfering with a federal agent and conspiring to interfere with a federal agent at a protest at a detention facility.
As Julie Bosman of the New York Times reported, U.S. District Judge April Perry dismissed the case after she discovered that prosecutors had talked to individual grand jurors outside the courtroom and removed those jurors who refused to indict, as well as apparently overstating the strength of the evidence against the defendants. After making these maneuvers, the prosecutors then tried to hide evidence of them by redacting the transcripts from the grand jury.source
In an extremely rare DOJ case ruled vindictive prosecution, the court found that the Trump DOJ had brought a baseless criminal prosecution against Kilmar Abrego Garcia in order to punish him for exercising his rights in court, and beating a team of Trump’s lackies to vindicate rights they clearly violated. Here is former DOJ prosecutor Glenn Kirschner explaining vindictive prosecution to Dean Obeidallah.
So it’s no surprise when ambitious scumbags, working for a criminally insane boss, file a fake lawsuit and make a fake “settlement” (as the fake lawsuit is about to be dismissed as a fraud) to defraud US taxpayers out of almost $2,000,000,000 and finance an army of loyal violent white men who have already demonstrated their willingness to gouge the eyes out of police officers to serve the illegal wishes of the man who brought the fake lawsuit and established the slush fund to pay them.
35 retired federal judges were not having this shit, and their motion to the judge who consented to dismissing the case is worth reading in its entirety. It is beautifully written and perfectly argues a flawless point, the judge who dismissed the case is legally permitted to, and must, reopen Trump’s fake case for a hearing on a fraud against the Court. Here’s the introduction:
On May 18, 2026, this Court dismissed this action with prejudice in response to Plaintiffs’ Notice of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice, filed earlier that day. The Court expressly noted in its Order dismissing the case that “the Notice does not reference any settlement or include a stipulation of settlement,” and thus “there is no settlement of record.” The Court further noted that Defendants “neither submitted any settlement documents nor filed any documents ensuring that settlement was appropriate where there was an outstanding question as to whether an actual case or controversy existed.”
The Court was deceived. Despite Plaintiffs not having mentioned any settlement in their Notice, the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) publicly announced a “settlement” of this action shortly after Plaintiffs filed their dismissal. That “settlement” commandeers the contrived sum of $1.776 billion from the United States Treasury, to be handed out to recipients chosen by a commission effectively controlled by the President.The DOJ is calling this the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
The day after the “settlement” containing the Anti-Weaponization Fund was announced, the DOJ announced that it had subsequently agreed to release “any and all claims . . . whether presently known or unknown, that—as of the Effective Date of the Settlement Agreement—have been or could have been asserted by [the United States] against any of the Plaintiffs or related or affiliated individuals . . . or parties . . . by reason of, with respect to, in connection with, or which arise out of . . . any matters currently pending or that could be pending . . . before Defendants or other agencies or departments.”4 The plain language of this extremely broad provision sweeps in Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audits of Plaintiffs’ tax returns and all other claims the United States might have against Plaintiffs—extraordinary benefits for which no consideration was provided to the government.5
The parties to this case are using this lawsuit as the legal justification for these actions. This is not speculation; the parties themselves have proclaimed it, repeatedly. For starters, the DOJ implemented all of the actions described above via a document expressly titled “Settlement Agreement,” captioned with this case’s caption, plus a three-paragraph addendum that references that “Settlement Agreement” in its first paragraph and in its third paragraph purports to “forever bar[] and preclude[]” the United States from pursuing claims that could have been asserted “by Defendants against any of the Plaintiffs” in this case.6 The “Settlement Agreement” was signed by Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward the same day Plaintiffs filed their Notice; in fact, Plaintiffs’ filing of the Notice was expressly required by the “Settlement Agreement.”
The addendum granting the extraordinarily broad releases to the President and his family and businesses was signed by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche the next day, May 19. Yet none of the parties filed either of these documents with the Court. In addition, shortly after announcingthe “settlement,” the Acting Attorney General issued an order creating the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.” That order—which references the “Settlement Agreement” in this case—explicitly identifies the Judgment Fund statute, 31 U.S.C. § 1304, under which Congress has authorized appropriations for payments of settlements against the United States, and 28 U.S.C. § 2414, which authorizes payments of “final” judgments against the United States including compromise settlements and “imminent” claims, as the statutory bases for the creation of the AntiWeaponization Fund. Payments purportedly made pursuant to these statutes in the absence of a genuine case or controversy are not authorized. Movants submit that this “settlement” is a product of collusion and is itself a fraud on the Court.
The initiatives [see below] are part of an effort by Mr. Trump to honor himself while commemorating the nation’s 250th birthday.
(great line from today’s NY Times, referring to Trump’s glaring face on the new $250 bill, his signature on all paper money, more sycophants lapping from his capacious tush)
E.J. Carroll at the time of the sexual attack Trump lied about and defamed her over
It’s a bad state of affairs when your own government is less trustworthy than a theocracy that mass murders protesters in the streets. Of course, our biggest, most important psychopaths would have no hesitation to do the same here, as soon as the time is right. Trump talks out of all eleven sides of his crusty ass, his puppets, and those sharing in his record-breaking corruption, rush to agree with every contradictory statement. To do otherwise would be career suicide and financially stupid. One of his recent ass-utterings was about a great, secret peace deal with Iran, immediately opening the Strait of Hormuz, almost done, much better than Obama’s, that traitorous critics were already criticizing even though it’s still only a concept of a plan, and even he doesn’t know what’s in it, but it’s almost a done deal and it’s going to be unbelievably fantastic, like nobody’s ever seen. And if not, more mass killing in Iran and elsewhere.
But Iran’s state media immediately posted that Trump’s claim that the strait would reopen as it was before the war was “not true,” adding that “it should be noted that American officials have acknowledged in multiple messages to Iran that Trump’s tweets are primarily for promotional purposes and media consumption within the United States, and they have recommended that no attention be paid to these statements.”source
Speaking of murderous compulsive liars — more slaughter on the high seas by Pirate Trump’s central casting toxic male asshole Pete Hegseth. They are pulling out all the stops to control the news to protect powerful white male pedophiles from exposure and accountability. (BREAKING: DOJ investigates Trump sexual assault and defamation victim E. Jean Carroll for ‘perjury’, banner headline in the NY Times — you want vindictive prosecution? In your fucking faces, cucks and bitches! [1]). In more Trump Epic Temper Tantrum news, President Hostis Humani Generis killed more fishermen:
Yesterday the U.S. military struck another small boat in the eastern Pacific, bringing the number of boats struck in the eastern Pacific and the Caribbean to fifty-eight. At least 194 individuals have been killed. The administration insists the boats are trafficking drugs but has produced no evidence for that accusation, and as Eric Schmitt of the New York Times reported today, “military experts say the strikes are illegal, extrajudicial killings.”source
War crimes, shmawr crimes. We’re not even at war with these fisherman, so how can these drone killings be war crimes, asshole? It’s just good, old-fashioned cold blooded, unaccountable murder from the air. Just the way our insane sadistic Commander-in-Chief likes it.
[1]
Call it vindictive and we’ll prosecute you, fuckface!
The “case” against her is for a supposedly knowingly false statement she made in a deposition about who was paying her legal fees. She had a contingency fee agreement with the lawyers who whipped Todd Blanche’s lying ass in court twice. Under a contingency arrangement, the lawyer pays costs leading up to a verdict and then takes a percentage of the award. Roberta Kaplan, Carroll’s lawyer, put all this in a letter when news broke that another vindictive prosecution was starting under the president who promised to be “your retribution” (if you are actually me, that is.).
This case is even weaker than the 86 47 Seashell/Kashyap yap yap (Patel) case against known Communist antifa leader James Comey (also a member of MS13 and the Southern Poverty Law Center and all other hate groups not aligned with the president). Still, it is also a slam dunk, according the state attorney (from a district far from Manhattan where the “perjury took place) handling the case. This Trump prosecutor recently had charges thrown out in his unrighteous prosecution against six protesters of ICE brutality in Operation Make Chicago Beg For Mercy, LOL. He was reprimanded by the judge, for his manipulation of the grand jury that eventually voted to indict in the “slam dunk” case against the Broadview Six, right before DOJ dismissed its case against all six defendants. I’ve heard rabidly loyal partisan hacks like this assclown prosecutor referred to as punk-ass bitches, though I’ll take the high road here and assume he just made a mistake, like the one he’s making by signing up to head this transparently baseless and clearly vindictive prosecution of Trump’s defamation and sexual assault victim, E. Jean Carroll. The shit fountain never stops.
Kyle Cheney crunched the numbers, in a recent article in Politico, and found that federal judges ruled against ICE in 10,000 cases brought contesting the illegal tactics frequently employed by Trump’s federal goon squad. ICE has won about a thousand times, a 10-1 skew in favor of the law. The use of force, detentions, and conditions of detention, and denial of constitutionally guaranteed rights were deemed illegal in 90% of the cases.
The federal circuits are unaccountably deadlocked, in regard to ICE policies. There is a divide between The Rule of Law and MAGA/Project 2025 over the ICE question. That question is whether Trump’s masked goon squads need to follow the Fourth Amendment, be truthful to judges, present actual evidence or if their executive branch agency really has to honor the 9-0 Supreme Court affirmation of the writ of habeas corpus (the right to go in front of a judge to contest the reason you’re being held in prison). The Federalist Society Six will eventually have the final say about the criminally insane president’s right to unilaterally suspend Fourth Amendment and habeas corpus rights, and trial court judges in several districts have their hands tied in the meantime by Appellate decisions.
Criminal charges brought by Trump’s DOJ are routinely dismissed, by judges and juries, for lack of evidence of a crime. A number of his attempted vindictive indictments were rejected by grand juries. His DOJ has repeatedly committed frauds on the court and prosecutorial misconduct, including jury tampering. Top DOJ officials routinely go on the air to declare Trump’s enemies guilty before they are even indicted.
In a court of law, evidence is required to prove a claim, particularly when the State intends to deprive a person of their liberty or their life. Evidence that there is probable cause to believe a crime has been committed is required to get a judge to sign a search warrant. Evidence is the factual basis for any legal claim. Vexatious litigants like the petulant, pampered, professional victim in the White House hate this requirement of “evidence.” Evidence is as abhorrent to a compulsive liar as the truth itself. Judges require evidence (outside of the Federalist Six, of course), as does our justice system.
If you are Trump, you send lawyers to shop for a cooperative judge to give you a search warrant to seize 2020 ballots in a county that voted for the Democratic candidate, without evidence of any kind of crime — and well beyond the statute of limitations. You illegally appoint unqualified acting state’s attorneys to commit hanky panky to get indictments from grand juries, claiming to have slam dunk evidence they don’t have. Some are even forced to admit prosecutorial misconduct in court.
When it comes to Trump’s crimes, the same principle applies in reverse. A search warrant, legally obtained and based on evidence of criminal possession of documents and obstruction of the investigation (both of which turned out to be true) — a witch hunt by a weaponized DOJ engaging in “lawfare”! Trump is entitled to billions in compensation for being the target of a weaponized DOJ, IRS, the electorate, etc. So are all his wealthy “friends” and those violent loyalists willing to risk death for his lies, they are all entitled to millions.
Trump’s DOJ was recently found to have maliciously prosecuted Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man they illegally rendered to the torture prison in El Salvador. To save face, after defying a federal judge’s order to turn the airplanes around, and claiming for months that they had no jurisdiction over El Salvador (the dictator of El Salvador acknowledged these US prisoners were living in cells rented by Trump), they prosecuted Abrego for a non-crime they had no evidence he committed. They did this after publicly vowing that IF he ever got back into the US because some traitor judge ruled he had to come back, they’d put him on criminal trial for felonies they falsely assured the public he was 100% guilty of. That case was dismissed with a rare finding of “malicious prosecution”. Trump’s psychotic lackies are now determined to deport Abrego Garcia to one of several African war zones the State Department classifies as highly dangerous. Abrego has agreed to be deported to Costa Rica, who has indicated they’d take him, but the DOJ is determined to send him to South Sudan, ASAP.
Trump’s Department of Justice has lost the “presumption of regularity” judges always gave government lawyers when they appeared before them. There is nothing regular about a DOJ routinely hiding evidence, lying to judges, making public statements about the guilt of the parties they haul into court. Never have we had an acting Deputy Attorney General tell his lawyers that they have to be ready to tell judges “fuck you” if they ask inconvenient questions that could impede the president’s illegal agenda. Erez Reuveni, a former DOJ lawyer, quoted criminal weasel Emil Bove, now federal appellate Judge Bove for life, to that effect. Reuveni was fired for admitting to the court that he had not been given any evidence to present to the court. In fact, he’d been instructed to defy the judge by one of the president’s most aggressive mongooses (no offense to mongooses, but look at this motherfucker:)
I keep thinking of one of the hundred or so cases Trump and the RNC brought (and lost) before the 2020 election to restrict voting by mail and the use of drop boxes (recall this was in the middle of the hpandemic, voters who believed Covid was highly contagious and deadly skewed overwhelmingly anti-Trump). This federal case, Trump 2020 v. Boockvar, against numerous election officials in Pennsylvania, caught my eye. The media was not reporting on it (it was one of many such frivolous lawsuits) so I followed it on PACER, the online database of federal cases. I was frustrated that the judge, a 43 year-old Trump appointee named J. Nicholas Ranjan, was not dismissing such an amateurishly filed case presented with zero evidence of its mostly incoherent claims. Week after week I followed this case. Judge Ranjan granted a motion to compel Trump and the RNC to submit evidence supporting its many bogus claims. Plaintiffs delivered a box full of screenshots and printouts from FOX, NewsMax, Breitbart, der Sturmer and other reliable legal authorities. I waited for Ranjan to dismiss the case. He didn’t, not for some time. But it was well worth the wait. The judge made a record that ensured he could not be reversed on appeal when he finally dismissed the case.
These two quotes are from the Kyle Cheney article linked above:
“This isn’t how things are supposed to work in America,” wrote U.S. District Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointee based in New York, in the case of a man whose lawful status was revoked after ICE arrested him. “Unquestionably, the laws of human decency condemn such villainy.”
“Despite hundreds of similar rulings in this and other courts resoundingly in favor of the ICE-detainee petitioners, ICE continues to act contrary to law, to spend taxpayer money needlessly, and to waste the scarce resources of the judiciary,” said U.S. District Judge Harvey Bartle III, a George H.W. Bush appointee from Pennsylvania.
Senator Andy Kim was pepper sprayed today by masked agents outside of infamous ICE detention center, GEO Group’s private Delaney Hall, in Newark, New Jersey. The detainees are on a hunger strike over conditions there that have been found to constitute torture — insufficient, expired food, unclean water, lack of medical care, abusive treatment. The other day the governor of New Jersey was prevented from entering to inspect the facility. This is the same hellhole that refused admission to the mayor of Newark, and then let him in before he was briefly and illegally arrested when he left, on orders, presumably, of the highly qualified Alina Habba. The melee that followed led to assault charges (still pending) against US Congress member LaMonica McIver. Apparently she assaulted an ICE agent’s elbow with her eye and her stomach during a chaotic shoving match between elected officials and masked goons licensed to kill and gas with impunity. Evidence, I suppose, will eventually be presented in the case against her. I suspect it will be similar to the suspect evidence judges have rejected in many other fraudulent Trump DOJ vindictive prosecutions.
As for Trump’s Stephen Miller-led deportation Gestapo, in 2018, under Trump, there were six detainee deaths in ICE custody. In the year and a half the malevolent creature has been back in power: 61 acknowledged deaths in ICE custody (dying detainees are often rushed to hospitals to take their deaths off the books of ICE, but 61 deaths in detention in 2025 and the first half of 2026 are confirmed on ICE’s own website..
Fuck these fuckin putos.
THIS IS AN ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPH — no Photoshop, no AI, NO COVFEFE!!!
No Democrats, or girls, were allowed when the Acting AG went to get GOP support for the boss’s illegal kampfbund fund. These fascists are not even trying to hide their nefarious dealings as they set up an illegal taxpayer funded slush fund to enrich criminal far-right insurrectionists as payment for their future violent, insurrectionist services.
Nothing to see here, when the Acting AG goes to meet with Republican senators only, because partisan (if Republican) use of the government for strictly partisan purposes has been repeatedly blessed by the six righteous pontiffs on the Supreme Court. January Sixth fist pumper/sprinter to saftey Josh Hawley, “Greenbay Sweep” quarterback Lyin’ Ted, loyal lapdog Lindsey “A girl gets to change her mind!” Graham, Coach Tooberville, every Senator who defended the J6 rioters as patriots, or worked with Bannon and fellow-strategists in the Willard Hotel War Room directly on January 6th — all eligible for big bucks from the illegal slush fund!
With all that, it reportedly went badly for Blanche.
Although, as everyone in MAGA knows — it’s totally illegal for the FBI to conduct an investigation into a riot to stop the certification of a national election, particularly for the phone records of the conspirators in Congress, the victims of which each deserve at least a million dollars. Just because you were convicted of violently attacking police doesn’t mean you don’t deserve a million bucks for the hell they put you through afterwards. It’s just like the feds getting a so-called subpoena to raid your house to get evidence of a crime, evidence you strongly denied having, finding the evidence you lied about not having, and then maliciously prosecuting you! Submit your claim today!
Recall three things about the bogus case this unrelated “settlement agreement” supposedly came from:
1] the lawsuit was time-barred as well beyond the statute of limitations for bringing it [should have been dismissed on that basis, would have been, if Trump’s criminal defense team DOJ wasn’t involved]
2] the case was not a legally justiciable “case or controversy” since Trump, the plaintiff, was also in charge of the IRS, the defendant/respondent. The criminally insane stable genius plaintiff/defendant was pretending to “settle” with himself, with $10,000,000,000 of taxpayer money as the hostage.
3] This kind of case, if legitimate, has a settlement limit of $1,000 according to the law.
Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb gives the legal skinny on the $1,776B criminal conspiracy Republicans are now very squeamish about (and rightfully so). Again, the legal incoherence of the “settlement” is very clear: the case was filed AFTER the statute of limitations expired, it was dismissed by the judge because there was no case or controversy (Trump controlled both sides of the fake lawsuit) and statutory damages in these cases are limited to $1,000. Under a noncriminal DOJ, the case would have been immediately dismissed. In withdrawing it himself, with Blanche’s generous deal for his family and their tax avoidance liabilities, the stable genius thought he was winning. Like he won the war in Iran, obliterating them twice, perhaps more times. Like he won in 2020, by an overwhelming majority, and in 2024, the 200 bomb threats called into strategically located Democratic precincts by Putin had nothing to do with it. Like he was totally exonerated at the end of every witch hunt. Like he never even met any of the cute young girls fucking Epstein stole from Mar-a-Lago.
And the indignantly befuddled dickhead pictured above never even met Ghislaine Maxwell and knew nothing about her being transferred, days after a two day, nine hour interview with Blanche that was totally routine for sex criminals, to a much less secure prison for female white collar criminals.
Let us all take action to ensure there are not 1,000,000 paid Klansmen, in hoods, preemptive presidential pardons in hand, surrounding every non-MAGA polling place in November so that our 2027 government can conduct the investigations, impeachments and criminal proceedings that are necessary to halt this avalanche of fascism here in the good old USA.
