Thank you for speaking truth to their lies!!! My little granddaughter is the same age as the missing girls ....my heart is broken! Thank you for not just looking the other way!!!!
My two g'daughter were on their way back from camp here in Washington State when this Texas story broke. We may be blue and they may be red, but it doesn't matter. My heart hurts.
Nobody gives a fucking rat;s ass about your fucking family, It is sad mk stupid and pathetic that you are so much of an idiot as to even mention in."Truth to their lies?"" Bullshit... You morons will repeat whatever you hear... You are a talking bird
Take your anger out on the cause, Donald Trump, not easy to be a cult member and be confronted by the truth or to admit that you have been completely suckered is it!!
@Kenneth Boyle ... Right you are, Sir. Poor Puny Peter Pucker (aka Mr. Vomit) is a laughing stock and a nothing in the world of Dumpity Doo Doo.
He's confused, lost, hopeless, and a nobody. Not even his cult leader gives AF about his anger, rage, or (gasp!) his poverty of mind and soul. We know he's not bright enough to have anything of value in his life--or his pockets.
Just another stupid, deluded angry orange-loving good-for-nothing bumpkin. He'll be yelling louder than a stuck pig once TSHTF in his little world. Oh, well. He can just FAFO. LOL 😂
Great Laura, kudos to you. I've noticed they are coming fast and furious in the past few weeks. It just means that even Trump lovers are rejecting him. It's great to be alive in this moment! ('-')
I have him blocked under at least 15 permutations. I just blocked this one he is Peter, peter, peter tucker, in caps without. All different email addresses. He always lists pizzaman, or pizza and beer in his bio. He is a racist troll. He definitely has it in for MTN. He will keep re-registering. Just keep blocking him.
He's likely a free subscriber. No worries, though. If he likes being dressed down and laughed at he's as welcome as any other Dumpty Doo Doo troll! They don't typically last long after one (or more) encounters with one of the Meidas Mighty. Let 'r rip!
I also think that before you even reply or follow you should check their profile. Some of them are not bots. The real live trump lovers show who they are in their follows in the profile. Do not engage. Just block right away. If you're uncertain because their msg seems a bit off, also block right away. Another giveaway is that they claim to be a retired vet. Some show a soldier giving candy to children in some far off land. Be aware. Also there are women who pretend to be your friend. Be careful.
He's mentally, morally, and figuratively bankrupt. Useless to the Frumpty Show, can't play golf, and upset because he's never invited to join the janitorial team at Fats-A-Lardo! 🤣We encourage him to keep submitting an application. Who knows? He may get an offer to hand wash item(s) on the official diaper detail!!!
He cannot answer you because he doesn't know. He's just lost, dazed and confused--wanting desperately to belong to someone or something and dying for attention he never got on the home front. Well, if he likes getting the **** beat out of him he's in the right place.
I report each and every time. The scam changes to something else stupid and the screen name changes. You can report by clicking on the three dots on the right side of the post.
We just Block once we're done playing with him. It's fun to see him keep popping up with the SOSDD. Reporting? Nah ... they refuse after so many attempts. Better to just toss a couple insults in his mug followed with a Block. Satisfaction!
Don’t answer them. They are probably bots. They rejoin as fast as they are reported. If you can’t report, then block. They are on many different boards I go to. Diff letters.
I'm tempted to (reply) type the "Seven words you can never say on television" by George Carlin (I don't remember exactly HOW he said that part!) in a reply to this idiot. They're inappropriate to type out here but for those of you who remember them (and even those of you who don't), they certainly apply to Imn and his inappropriate garbage ad. Maybe some people are responding which is why he/she keeps doing it?
Don’t waste a minute of your precious life Jean. They are bots. They swarm these prodemocracy boards. If you can report as spam, pls do so. Then go into their profiles block from there. I must have blocked more than 10 of them today on different boards. I can’t block from my kindle fire but I can from the web on my PC or the app on my ipad.
Some, like yours truly, do respond when I feel like it. Other times? Blocked and forgotten until they show up again. No to worry, though. They're trolls. They accomplish nothing on this front.
Except this is the very reason there are substacks where you must be a paid member to comment. Who wants to see this on every board that allows free subscribers? They will ruin it for those who can't pay and want to be a part if creators lock the comments. . If you answer, do you ever go look at their bios and their "reads".before you block? Even the brainfog-ozempic-whatever spam leads to one "read". The pizza troll had over 500 subs on one acct. But they do accomplish something when people get upset and answer, so you answering gets them exactly what they want Ed. Attention.
Your consternation is your misfortune. As an unsolicited “response cop” you appear to be vested in how trolls are responded to. So, WIIFY?
It’s obvious you haven’t read far enough in the comments. Had you availed yourself of said opportunity to be informed, you may have come across my comments relative to attention-seeking. Are you suffering from the same condition? 🤔
“He cannot answer you because he doesn't know. He's just lost, dazed and confused--wanting desperately to belong to someone or something and dying for attention he never got on the home front. Well, if he likes getting the **** beat out of him he's in the right place.”
Thank you for calling out the regime again! It obviously couldn't care less who lives or dies, but as long as the oligarchy has its wealth and power, everything is peachy, right?! Please tell me the GROSS negligence and incompetence of this regime will ultimately lead to its downfall!
Agree. Apparently, it's coming to it's eventual end as we speak. The infighting is poking holes in their plans constantly. They're fearful of Dumpty and now of the constituents they have to face on the home front. The orange pumpkin is a dummy who sows confusion and destruction (John 10:10), and the Book tells us how the story ends.
Go back to bed and collect yourself. Facts are facts. Trump, is responsible for cutting the weather service and we were warned of the dire consequences.
I knew yesterday that Biden would definitely be named somehow for this catastrophe in Texas. And sure enough the Queen of Attention-seeking declared that it’s all his fault. If it weren’t so tragically sad it would be laughable.
But it’s not and it’s only going to get worse with this clueless regime. Hurricane season is upon us and tornadoes are always around, especially in the Midwest with earthquakes and wildfires out West. To the powers that be they’re just culling the ‘herd’, same as in Covid. They’re immoral mutants!
Everything that happens they try to Blame Biden or his Administration. The only people who believe that are the MAGA nuts who are so far off from reality. Everyone knows Trump has closed all the necessary organizations and fired everyone with knowledge of any given situation.
I checked his profile! He’s a complete troll! Subscribed (not paid) to talk shit about the facts! Seems trolls like the name Peter! I’ve run into a lot of them! Block and mute his hate spewing nonsense ! 🌹✊🏻
There's few of them. There will be many more. Trump is losing ground, even among his base. This is why the uptick in trolls. It started about 3 weeks ago. Don't let them bait you. Just block them. Again and again.
Go take your language that applies to The Dictator Criminal Deranged Dingbat Idiot Psycho in the Oval Office and say those to him. Don't read this site. It's not for trumplicons, anyway. You're too stupid and ignorant to realize what your boyfriend in the Oval Office is doing. It's time to wake up and face facts....and not dump's "facts" which are all lies. Only gullible people believe him and believe IN him.
It is hard for those of us with hearts because we feel heartbroken for the flood victims and families while simultaneously feel rage at the complete absurdity of the puppy killer, her gang and her leader.
I agree with you about KN. Stephen Miller is equally as vile and calculating. I see them both as evil monsters...sub-human. And of course, there are many other evil minions in the trump region. It is gruesome.
Totally agree about Miller….the psycho wants only 100 million people in this country that look like him. Ugly pos. What I find bizarre, his family emigrated here because of Anti-Semitism. He’s is an Anti-Christ bigot!!’KKK lover.
We need to deport him back to Belarus that’s where his family is from. I call him Nazi Miller bc he looks like Hitlers brown shirt Nazis. He married a woman who is just as evil. They have 3 kids. They’re raising 3 little Nazis.
Being stupid is the point Paulette! I restacked a piece Today by Dissent in Bloom which might help you understand that not doing the job is the point! It’s called “So this is how a free press dies” Project 2025 is rolling along right on track!
How long will this administration play the Biden card? It’s high time for the president to do the right thing and address these issues. I’m just an old woman who watched the weather and I knew there would be trouble, after he tossed paper towels at a press conference in Puerto Rico.
Every good thing that Obama & Biden would do to provide massive help and comfort to states affected by any natural disasters is what that horrible orange piece of shit hates so much! He’ll do anything to dismantle these agencies like FEMA and the NWS and discredit/blame Obama/Biden. Such a nasty & cruel moron Trump is!
Yeah because he is black and his racist azz doesn’t like black ppl. And with Biden being the VP, at the time, was ‘guilty by association’, in trump’s eyes. When Biden became president, he still did the right things for the people.
There is a picture somewhere here on Substack that shows trump and then President Obama sitting next to each other in a room in the White House, and how trump was side-eyeing President Obama with hatred and envy.
According to Rachel Maddow, "When Hurricane Wilma hit Florida in 2005, Donald Trump claimed a $17 million insurance payday on his property - the only problem is, there's no evidence any ..."
Remember When Donald Trump Pocketed Millions in Hurricane Insurance for Mar-a-Lago Damage That Never Happened?
What is wrong with these people? The weather can't be manipulated. How stupid. Maybe Mike Johnson can lead a prayer group and pray the bad weather away.
There is a bill moving forward in Florida too. The state has enacted a law, Senate Bill 56, that prohibits geoengineering and weather modification activities. The law repeals existing weather modification regulations and makes it a felony to intentionally release chemicals or substances into the atmosphere with the intent to alter temperature, weather, climate, or sunlight intensity. No institutions have ever sought a permit to change the weather, according to state environment officials. So crazy.
I knew as soon as I heard about this horrible tragedy that Biden would be blamed! If Biden were president now he would have already made a trip to Texas to comfort and show support to those affected. That’s what a real president does!
Maryann, I agree with you. President Biden would be empathetic and probably send national guards, but then again they are all sitting around in LA waiting for something to do. Thanks to our Orange menace
I think you can relate this to Trump’s original statement on COVID. If you don’t test, it surly isn’t that bad!!!
Here if it’s not reported it can’t be that devastating!!!
So it really matters you keep highlight the other cities, states where weather tragedies have struck.
I live in Scotland not far from a Trump golf course. There are offshore wind turbines that are the backdrop to his course. I have a good giggle when I’m on the beach and enjoy how they annoy the idiot!!
Sharing this morning's Footnotes by Jemar Tisby substack, spread this word far and wide...
Trump's Personal Army
The [additional] $170 billion weapon against dissent
Jemar Tisby, PhD
Jul 6, 2025
The free fall into fascism isn’t coming. It’s here.
ICE is Trump’s personal army, and it just got a $170 billion boost.
The Big Ugly Bill apportions more than $170 billion to ICE and "border security".
This makes ICE more well-funded than any other U.S. law enforcement agency and richer than the entire military budget of all but 15 countries.
What will this money buy?
Vehicles. Drones. Weapons. Surveillance software. Detention facilities. Tactical gear. More agents. More raids. More power.
What concerns me most is that ICE is classified as law enforcement—not military.
For all its problems, the military has some limits.
It needs Congressional approval for some actions. Soldiers take an oath. Many of them enlist out of a sense of duty and honor.
Not so with ICE.
ICE is a paramilitary force with ultimate allegiance to the president. Not to the Constitution. Not to the people.
Its mandate is vague and constantly shifting. It started with immigrants. But it can easily expand to include “rioters,” “dissenters,” “disloyal citizens.”
It operates with almost no public oversight and responds directly to executive authority.
For instance, the Posse Comitatus Act largely preventing the president from deploying the U.S. military as a domestic police force would not apply to ICE.
ICE is the president’s personal goon squad.
A private police force with the power to conduct raids, surveillance, arrests, and disappearances—all without military oversight or congressional restraint.
With $170 billion behind it, ICE can now be deployed not just against immigrants but against anyone who threatens the regime’s ideological, economic, or political grip.
Anyone could be a target for harassment, imprisonment, or disappearing.
ICE is the president’s personal army to carry out his authoritarian will.
Picture it.
Raids on residences in the middle of the night. Surveillance that monitors everyone everywhere for breaches of loyalty. Guns trained on and discharged toward protestors and resisters of all sorts.
With the appropriation of obscene levels of funding, the scenario escalates quickly.
Step 1: ICE conducts another public abduction.
Step 2: People fed up at the trauma of seeing their neighbors ripped off the street for no reason get loud and agitated.
Step 3: An immature, untrained, and trigger-eager ICE agent opens fire.
Step 4: An uprising ensues.
Step 5: The president imposes martial law.
Suddenly, the 2026 midterm elections—our so-called plan to rein in this regime—are suspended.
For “safety” reasons. For “national security.”
That’s what $170 billion of your tax dollars allocated to ICE actually buys.
I’m not predicting the future, I’m just reading the historical patterns.
When an authoritarian leader gets control of a militarized force that he can deploy with impunity, the situation does not get better. It gets rapidly worse.
What You Can Do
Secure a civil rights lawyer
If you are a vocal advocate or frontlines activist, be sure to have legal representation. Have their contact information at-the-ready.
Pack a go-bag
Include: copies of ID and passports, cash reserves, phone charger and battery pack, medications, basic toiletries, flash drive with key documents, change of clothes, water and non-perishable foods, etc.
Secure your digital presence
Enable two-factor identification, use encrypted messaging (e.g. Signal), use a VPN online, turn off facial recognition on your phone, turn off location sharing on apps
Identify your security pod
A small group of people—one legal, one logistical, one public communications—who can act immediately if you are detained or disappear.
I know this is heavy.
But if you’re committed to truth, justice, and democracy you can’t afford to be unprepared.
Authoritarianism escalates while people are still debating whether it’s really happening.
We are beyond debate. It’s time to act.
Pass this on to someone who’s standing for justice.
This is important. To my friends in the US, please follow this advice. The regime has been in power for less than 6 months and they have already formed their own army and set up concentration camps. Be prepared. Be safe.
In addition, Ben, NPR reported yesterday that hurricane forecasters and scientists rely on weather data collected and processed by DoD satellites. The Navy has decided to stop sharing the data. I fear many more Americans are at risk of experiencing what occurred in TX.
I also read that about the Navy and frankly I find it horrifying. The Navy gave a pretty lame and not very informative excuse as to why they are not going to share anymore.
Perhaps the European models will be useful for hurricane predictions but certainly not for tornados, flash floods, or wildfires.
I have never done so much cursing at the news as I have since last November.
Is there enough evidence for a class action lawsuit here ? I feel this post is alluding to that. I was having those same thoughts yesterday, so I'm glad to see the evidence being pointed & those are just the high level facts. Sadly it will keep piling up.
Who would be brave enough to take on that case? I'm not against it, I have pondered the same idea, but it would probably be detrimental to their health and their family.
The way this cruel and idiotic thing has handled every aspect of our lives and safety, it feels like how will we not if we could die with him and his cronies at the top.
Weather analysis has been degraded with staff laid off and no one to accurately predict when a major storm will hit leaving potentially catastrophic numbers of people in harms way
Air safety is at an all time low because the air traffic controllers have been laid off and now the people there are working well beyond what they are supposed to
Healthcare is being ripped away from millions and vaccine skepticism is not doctrine at the Department of Health and Human Services.
National defense is in the hands of the weekend host of Fox and Friends and sharing vital security information on an app I can download for free and including his wife and lawyer in meetings.
The media is glossing over all of this is only the stuff I can think of while I’m having a cup of ice coffee
This is an important message about the truth of the lies behind the horrific and preventable deaths in the TX floods. Please, for the love of democracy, stop with the headlines that look like political fundraisers in my email. It screams clickbait. Please title things with the subject matter. Every single message these days is important or critical. We know this. Naming every post that way weakens the importance. Please take a look at the subreddit for more good feedback. You guys are the best. Act like it. This is so amateur hour.
Thank you for speaking truth to their lies!!! My little granddaughter is the same age as the missing girls ....my heart is broken! Thank you for not just looking the other way!!!!
My two g'daughter were on their way back from camp here in Washington State when this Texas story broke. We may be blue and they may be red, but it doesn't matter. My heart hurts.
Nobody gives a fucking rat;s ass about your fucking family, It is sad mk stupid and pathetic that you are so much of an idiot as to even mention in."Truth to their lies?"" Bullshit... You morons will repeat whatever you hear... You are a talking bird
Take your anger out on the cause, Donald Trump, not easy to be a cult member and be confronted by the truth or to admit that you have been completely suckered is it!!
@Kenneth Boyle ... Right you are, Sir. Poor Puny Peter Pucker (aka Mr. Vomit) is a laughing stock and a nothing in the world of Dumpity Doo Doo.
He's confused, lost, hopeless, and a nobody. Not even his cult leader gives AF about his anger, rage, or (gasp!) his poverty of mind and soul. We know he's not bright enough to have anything of value in his life--or his pockets.
Just another stupid, deluded angry orange-loving good-for-nothing bumpkin. He'll be yelling louder than a stuck pig once TSHTF in his little world. Oh, well. He can just FAFO. LOL 😂
Why are you subscribed to MeidasTouch if you don’t give a rats ass about what they have to say? Huh, troll? Russian spy troll MAGAt!
Great Laura, kudos to you. I've noticed they are coming fast and furious in the past few weeks. It just means that even Trump lovers are rejecting him. It's great to be alive in this moment! ('-')
I reported that bot for hate speech.
peter tucker is a foul-mouthed racist troll. Do not engage
If we ignore him, he will get bored. Soon, everyone will know. I wonder who's paying him to be here.
I'll give you 3 guesses and the first 2 don't count! They are becoming furious that Trump is losing popularity even I sense, from his base!
@ Vee Lavalle ... You're right I do suspect. And, to think I thought he might be in a snit because he can't find his signature DJT adult diapers!!!
Christ almighty! Why did you have to put THAT image in my head! LOL
I report him every time he makes a hateful comment.
I just did, also.
Agree. Laughing at him may speed things up. Great post! 🥇
I have him blocked under at least 15 permutations. I just blocked this one he is Peter, peter, peter tucker, in caps without. All different email addresses. He always lists pizzaman, or pizza and beer in his bio. He is a racist troll. He definitely has it in for MTN. He will keep re-registering. Just keep blocking him.
I love that he has to pay to comment here 😂
He's likely a free subscriber. No worries, though. If he likes being dressed down and laughed at he's as welcome as any other Dumpty Doo Doo troll! They don't typically last long after one (or more) encounters with one of the Meidas Mighty. Let 'r rip!
Laughing at him is fun, too. Though he does seem to keep trying to reinvent himself, the poor SOB. 🤡
I also think that before you even reply or follow you should check their profile. Some of them are not bots. The real live trump lovers show who they are in their follows in the profile. Do not engage. Just block right away. If you're uncertain because their msg seems a bit off, also block right away. Another giveaway is that they claim to be a retired vet.

DO NOT FEED THE TROLL
Repeat
DO NOT FEED THE TROLL
You're right, of course. Sometimes it's fun to mess with them--before Blocking 'em all to hell (where he/she/they) belong.
I have either hide or report his comments. He seems unduly angry with the wrong people.
He's mentally, morally, and figuratively bankrupt. Useless to the Frumpty Show, can't play golf, and upset because he's never invited to join the janitorial team at Fats-A-Lardo! 🤣We encourage him to keep submitting an application. Who knows? He may get an offer to hand wash item(s) on the official diaper detail!!!
I just reported peter tucker. And I will continue to do that every time he's on here!!
Blocked. No time for this stupidity anymore.
AND you must be a "peter tucker."
He's a nothing. That's what's got his panties in a bunch! LOL 😂
If you're a bot, good job on mimicking a maga looney
If you're a human, good job on mimicking a bot
Good one!
Been impotent long or is it new for you?
Then why are you a subscriber to their network if you don’t like what they’re saying?
He cannot answer you because he doesn't know. He's just lost, dazed and confused--wanting desperately to belong to someone or something and dying for attention he never got on the home front. Well, if he likes getting the **** beat out of him he's in the right place.
I remember someone like you or maybe it's you. He used to beat up girls on the playground at school. What a loser.
Language, Peter.
Hey Russian bot you’re reported and blocked. Go back to fucking your sister.
https://thiswillhold.substack.com/p/she-won-they-didnt-just-change-the
Stop hawking your shit here!! This is not your Substack!! You are inappropriate and rude!! Get your own Substack!!
Please report this. I have been but whoever keeps changing their screen name.
I report each and every time. The scam changes to something else stupid and the screen name changes. You can report by clicking on the three dots on the right side of the post.
I report every time too. But it sure gets to be a pain seeing this troll every day commenting the same BS on every post.
Last time I attempted to report the spammer the Substack authorities refused to accept it so I stopped trying
We just Block once we're done playing with him. It's fun to see him keep popping up with the SOSDD. Reporting? Nah ... they refuse after so many attempts. Better to just toss a couple insults in his mug followed with a Block. Satisfaction!
Unbelievable! At least you tried.
I reported the Russian maggot and blocked.
I keep reporting these spam posts each time I see them. However, I suspect they're bots, so they just keep coming.
Don’t answer them. They are probably bots. They rejoin as fast as they are reported. If you can’t report, then block. They are on many different boards I go to. Diff letters.
I AGREE DON'T RESPOND! THIS IS COMING ALL THE TIME BECAUSE TRUMP IS FEELING THE PAIN! Keep up the good noise!
Agree. The cure? Block. Quick, easy and done!
I'm tempted to (reply) type the "Seven words you can never say on television" by George Carlin (I don't remember exactly HOW he said that part!) in a reply to this idiot.

@Robin D … Your insight might best be shared with inividuals you believe would benefit from your comments.

peter tucker is just a foul mouthed racist troll. Do not engage -- that is all he is after.
I reported and blocked. I refuse to respond.

Even though you really want to, just don't do it.
Peter tucker is a Troll
Go away and be a "peter tucker." Pissing contest isn't working anyway.
Blocked and reported. Byeeee.
Go take your language that applies to The Dictator Criminal Deranged Dingbat Idiot Psycho in the Oval Office and say those to him. Don't read this site. It's not for trumplicons, anyway.

Totally agree about Miller….the psycho wants only 100 million people in this country that look like him. Ugly pos. What I find bizarre, his family emigrated here because of Anti-Semitism. He’s is an Anti-Christ bigot!!’KKK lover.
Agree! He even has extended family that died in the Holocaust. Just read an excellent book about him. Hate-monger by Jean Guerrero. Recommend.
Thank you. Will check it out!!
We need to deport him back to Belarus that’s where his family is from. I call him Nazi Miller bc he looks like Hitlers brown shirt Nazis. He married a woman who is just as evil. They have 3 kids. They’re raising 3 little Nazis.
He should be detained in Sudan. Then deported to the motherland penniless.
All you said is true. Trumps stupid department heads can't defend themselves so they go with the Trump line and LIE! What else have they got?
Your stupid you should lose you job
Being stupid is the point Paulette! I restacked a piece Today by Dissent in Bloom which might help you understand that not doing the job is the point! It’s called “So this is how a free press dies” Project 2025 is rolling along right on track!
That hasn't registered in orangetown--yet. ""For my friends, everything. For others, they have the law." --Field Marshal Óscar R. Benavides,
a former president of Peru.
How long will this administration play the Biden card? It’s high time for the president to do the right thing and address these issues. I’m just an old woman who watched the weather and I knew there would be trouble, after he tossed paper towels at a press conference in Puerto Rico.
Trump and his current administration has an extreme hatred for the Biden, Obama and Clinton families; especially Biden and Obama.
He hates everything that his predecessors have done, especially the good things, the right things for their fellow citizens. POS
Every good thing that Obama & Biden would do to provide massive help and comfort to states affected by any natural disasters is what that horrible orange piece of shit hates so much! He’ll do anything to dismantle these agencies like FEMA and the NWS and discredit/blame Obama/Biden. Such a nasty & cruel moron Trump is!
On Friday, Trump said he HATES all Dems.
This is the second time today I have to say he is compensating for his small hands. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Adler#:~:text=He%20was%20a%20social%20idealist,of%20the%20insights%20of%20psychology
Nasty!
good description of Trump
Incomprehensible comments from a sitting President.
"President" is too nice a word to use for the Dump. "Dictator Nazi/Communist" is the more suitable one.
Trump said in a speech on 7/4 that he hates all Democrats, so he basically hates more than half of all Americans.
Personally, I think he hates the other half too, as he will throw them under a train when they are no longer useful to him.
Yeah because he is black and his racist azz doesn’t like black ppl. And with Biden being the VP, at the time, was ‘guilty by association’, in trump’s eyes. When Biden became president, he still did the right things for the people.
There is a picture somewhere here on Substack that shows trump and then President Obama sitting next to each other in a room in the White House, and how trump was side-eyeing President Obama with hatred and envy.
The Repubs will always blame Biden....
I guess a hurricane will have to make a direct hit on Mara lago to get trump’s attention.
He'd use federal funds to build a palace like his pal, Putin. Congress would approve and the extreme court would stifle dissent.
According to Rachel Maddow, "When Hurricane Wilma hit Florida in 2005, Donald Trump claimed a $17 million insurance payday on his property - the only problem is, there's no evidence any ..."
Remember When Donald Trump Pocketed Millions in Hurricane Insurance for Mar-a-Lago Damage That Never Happened?

One of my evil wishes. I have a few. My twin goes for the jugular with one wish. And it's a doozy. But we will all rejoice if it ever happens.
Too bad FL passed an anti-weather modification bill so we can’t make it happen 😂
MTG is ranting about drawing up a bill making it illegal to manipulate the weather. Where does this f'ed up thinking come from?
What is wrong with these people? The weather can't be manipulated. How stupid. Maybe Mike Johnson can lead a prayer group and pray the bad weather away.
From her Fk’d up empty headspace.
Comes from being badly educated!

Does this mean the orange one can't nuke a hurricane?
The closest thing I know about is using silver iodide to seed clouds in an attempt to make rain.
🤣🤣🤣
That’s Georgia, not Florida, and I don’t think it has passed yet. There’s always Marjorie Taylor Greene’s space lasers tho.
There is a bill moving forward in Florida too. The state has enacted a law, Senate Bill 56, that prohibits geoengineering and weather modification activities. The law repeals existing weather modification regulations and makes it a felony to intentionally release chemicals or substances into the atmosphere with the intent to alter temperature, weather, climate, or sunlight intensity. No institutions have ever sought a permit to change the weather, according to state environment officials. So crazy.
I could pray for that.
I do daily.
It would be best if he were there when it hits.
He would blame Biden for it!
.......and he'll only rebuild THAT (with OUR tax money) when this storm is through.
Keeping that scenario in my prayers with no warnings
I knew as soon as I heard about this horrible tragedy that Biden would be blamed! If Biden were president now he would have already made a trip to Texas to comfort and show support to those affected. That’s what a real president does!
If Biden were president those deaths would’ve been mostly prevented because they would have been warned in advance
Maryann, I agree with you. President Biden would be empathetic and probably send national guards, but then again they are all sitting around in LA waiting for something to do. Thanks to our Orange menace
I haven’t heard of him directly addressing this tragedy yet, as a REAL President should and would.
I think you can relate this to Trump’s original statement on COVID. If you don’t test, it surly isn’t that bad!!!
Here if it’s not reported it can’t be that devastating!!!
So it really matters you keep highlight the other cities, states where weather tragedies have struck.
I live in Scotland not far from a Trump golf course. There are offshore wind turbines that are the backdrop to his course. I have a good giggle when I’m on the beach and enjoy how they annoy the idiot!!
Hello, good friend. Long live the windmills of Scotland 😊
Sharing this morning's Footnotes by Jemar Tisby substack, spread this word far and wide...
Trump's Personal Army
The [additional] $170 billion weapon against dissent
Jemar Tisby, PhD
Jul 6, 2025
The free fall into fascism isn’t coming. It’s here.
ICE is Trump’s personal army, and it just got a $170 billion boost.
The Big Ugly Bill apportions more than $170 billion to ICE and "border security".
This makes ICE more well-funded than any other U.S. law enforcement agency and richer than the entire military budget of all but 15 countries.
What will this money buy?
Vehicles. Drones. Weapons. Surveillance software. Detention facilities. Tactical gear. More agents. More raids. More power.
What concerns me most is that ICE is classified as law enforcement—not military.
For all its problems, the military has some limits.
It needs Congressional approval for some actions. Soldiers take an oath. Many of them enlist out of a sense of duty and honor.
Not so with ICE.
ICE is a paramilitary force with ultimate allegiance to the president. Not to the Constitution. Not to the people.
Its mandate is vague and constantly shifting. It started with immigrants. But it can easily expand to include “rioters,” “dissenters,” “disloyal citizens.”
It operates with almost no public oversight and responds directly to executive authority.
For instance, the Posse Comitatus Act largely preventing the president from deploying the U.S. military as a domestic police force would not apply to ICE.
ICE is the president’s personal goon squad.
A private police force with the power to conduct raids, surveillance, arrests, and disappearances—all without military oversight or congressional restraint.
With $170 billion behind it, ICE can now be deployed not just against immigrants but against anyone who threatens the regime’s ideological, economic, or political grip.
Anyone could be a target for harassment, imprisonment, or disappearing.
ICE is the president’s personal army to carry out his authoritarian will.
Picture it.
Raids on residences in the middle of the night. Surveillance that monitors everyone everywhere for breaches of loyalty. Guns trained on and discharged toward protestors and resisters of all sorts.
With the appropriation of obscene levels of funding, the scenario escalates quickly.
Step 1: ICE conducts another public abduction.
Step 2: People fed up at the trauma of seeing their neighbors ripped off the street for no reason get loud and agitated.
Step 3: An immature, untrained, and trigger-eager ICE agent opens fire.
Step 4: An uprising ensues.
Step 5: The president imposes martial law.
Suddenly, the 2026 midterm elections—our so-called plan to rein in this regime—are suspended.
For “safety” reasons. For “national security.”
That’s what $170 billion of your tax dollars allocated to ICE actually buys.
I’m not predicting the future, I’m just reading the historical patterns.
When an authoritarian leader gets control of a militarized force that he can deploy with impunity, the situation does not get better. It gets rapidly worse.
What You Can Do
Secure a civil rights lawyer
If you are a vocal advocate or frontlines activist, be sure to have legal representation. Have their contact information at-the-ready.
Pack a go-bag
Include: copies of ID and passports, cash reserves, phone charger and battery pack, medications, basic toiletries, flash drive with key documents, change of clothes, water and non-perishable foods, etc.
Secure your digital presence
Enable two-factor identification, use encrypted messaging (e.g. Signal), use a VPN online, turn off facial recognition on your phone, turn off location sharing on apps
Identify your security pod
A small group of people—one legal, one logistical, one public communications—who can act immediately if you are detained or disappear.
I know this is heavy.
But if you’re committed to truth, justice, and democracy you can’t afford to be unprepared.
Authoritarianism escalates while people are still debating whether it’s really happening.
We are beyond debate. It’s time to act.
Pass this on to someone who’s standing for justice.
And make sure they’re standing safely.
This is important. To my friends in the US, please follow this advice. The regime has been in power for less than 6 months and they have already formed their own army and set up concentration camps. Be prepared. Be safe.
ICE is the American Gestapo. ❤️🇨🇦
At least the German Gestapo wore identifiable uniforms without masks! Trump thugs are just terrorists. He already lead one attack Jan.6!🏴☠️🖤
In addition, Ben, NPR reported yesterday that hurricane forecasters and scientists rely on weather data collected and processed by DoD satellites. The Navy has decided to stop sharing the data. I fear many more Americans are at risk of experiencing what occurred in TX.
I also read that about the Navy and frankly I find it horrifying. The Navy gave a pretty lame and not very informative excuse as to why they are not going to share anymore.
Perhaps the European models will be useful for hurricane predictions but certainly not for tornados, flash floods, or wildfires.
I have never done so much cursing at the news as I have since last November.
I’m hoping the OLD deranged felon gets blown away! 😅🌊🌪️
Is there enough evidence for a class action lawsuit here ? I feel this post is alluding to that. I was having those same thoughts yesterday, so I'm glad to see the evidence being pointed & those are just the high level facts. Sadly it will keep piling up.
Who would be brave enough to take on that case? I'm not against it, I have pondered the same idea, but it would probably be detrimental to their health and their family.
We are living in scary times.
We must all start with the facts ...thanks for bringing them to us!
The maggots believe anyone blaming Biden for everything the traitor in chief and his accomplices do to wreck our country.
The way this cruel and idiotic thing has handled every aspect of our lives and safety, it feels like how will we not if we could die with him and his cronies at the top.
Weather analysis has been degraded with staff laid off and no one to accurately predict when a major storm will hit leaving potentially catastrophic numbers of people in harms way
Air safety is at an all time low because the air traffic controllers have been laid off and now the people there are working well beyond what they are supposed to
Healthcare is being ripped away from millions and vaccine skepticism is not doctrine at the Department of Health and Human Services.
National defense is in the hands of the weekend host of Fox and Friends and sharing vital security information on an app I can download for free and including his wife and lawyer in meetings.
The media is glossing over all of this is only the stuff I can think of while I’m having a cup of ice coffee
I am subscribed!!! And I do share your information!!
100% Trump's fault. But hey there will be rasslin on the White House front lawn.
This is an important message about the truth of the lies behind the horrific and preventable deaths in the TX floods. Please, for the love of democracy, stop with the headlines that look like political fundraisers in my email. It screams clickbait. Please title things with the subject matter. Every single message these days is important or critical. We know this. Naming every post that way weakens the importance. Please take a look at the subreddit for more good feedback. You guys are the best. Act like it. This is so amateur hour.
From now on they must take responsibility of every aspect of their misappropriation of funds which result in horrific losses such as this.
Biden is NOT the problem, it is you and you own the situation Trump regime. Calling you jackasses out!
