You missed the most important scandal: the DOJ ban of IRS investigations into Trump, his family, his businesses and affiliates. That is the ultimate grift.
If this ban, which will be challenged in court, is upheld, then the trumps will never pay taxes ever.
That places them above everyone. And that pisses me off more than any of the outright grift.
You are too mild...Screw these people" doesn't begin to cover the "Epic Rage" I am experiencing.
Will there ever be a reckoning ? Will Justice remove the blindfold ? Will it take a revolution -a la "Storm the Bastille" to strip these grifters of their ill-gotten wealth ?
If we can EVER find some HONEST people to resurrect this country, there should be an immediate reversal of fortunes for the trmp crime family. Their assets should be frozen and reallocated to all the people they have robbed...and that would be ALL of us !
IMPEACH AND DUMP TRAITORS, NAZIS PREDATORS AND ENABLERS , IMPERIALIST CRIMINALS, WAR MONGERS, CAREER CRIMINALS, CRIMINAL GRIFTERS, FASCIST PIGS, FRAUDSTERS, RACIST, AND CON REPUBLICONS EVERYWHERE. RELEASE ALL UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES AND JAIL CON RTRUMP. AVOID CON RTRUMP'S AND THE REPUBLICON'S RECESSION AND DEPRESSION. FIX CLIMATE CHANGE, FOR THE FAIR DEAL, NOT THE RAW DEAL. VOTE BLUE AND SAVE DEMOCRACY. STOP THE RTRUMP OLIGARCHY. BOYCOTT CRIMINAL RTRUMP & ELON THE NAZIS.
This right here. That actually gave me goosebumps. The corruption, dishonesty, self dealing and absolute lack of any care towards the people that prop them up (US!) is something I've not experienced on such a scale. Perhaps we need to stop paying taxes. If we all don't pay there isn't a jail big enough to lock us in. Or, just all stop working for a few days. Wouldn't take much. There'd be little left for the trumpers to grift and spend.
Oh, believe me Adam, I did NOT MISS the "ultimate grift"! It is thoroughly incorporated into my "Epic Rage". You are absolutely right to be outraged as am I.
I can only hope that somehow "We, the People" will rise up in massive numbers too large to be ignored - or labeled as "false" or "suspect"; a blue tsunami to sweep all this administration into the gutter from whence they emerged.
The pendulum is never static. I can only hope there are some honest statesmen/women somewhere in our country who can shoulder this enormous task and get the "Ship of State" back on course. It will NOT be easy!
The republicans who abet trmp by their acquiescence because they are more concerned about losing their "seats" rather than addressing the dire straits (Hormuz included) of this rotten administration, need to go. They are completely culpable and despicable.
It's absolutely breathtaking! Too bad he is such a worm, doing it as a side-grift on his henchmen's plot to destroy everything that is fine and just in our country; otherwise it would make a king-hell caper movie.
Hard to believe that almost all rethuglikkkrussians in congress have gone quiet!! Hopefully, rethuglikkkrussians up for reelection or election, get the 💩 beat out of them! I don’t think we can trust any of them! Can’t pull their heads out of trumps ass!!
Elizabeth Warren is actively opposing all of this. There's a reason the Melon Felon hates her so much. If there is any justice in this world, she will be the first woman to be elected POTUS.
Text book cases of Narcissitic Personality Disorder 01 wil do anything to get your attention......in Diaper Dons situation......the more leaks and stink the more everyone is focused on him.
That's what I'd like to know. (Why is it so hard to stop this?) Somehow, Dump's powers have gotten way out of hand. No other president has ever had this much power. Or actually, if any of them have, they didn't use it to establish a dictatorship and enrich himself and his friends.
Agree. It feels like a gigantic, uncontrollable avalanche or a massive tsunami that’s suddenly roaring in with no ability to stop it or even get out of the way! But of course that’s the whole idea… generate massive amounts of chaos and confusion which in turn creates shock and paralysis and panic and fear and uncertainty. Then ultimately, surrender.
We must unite, stay strong and actively engaged, and destroy this corrupt, criminal cabal that’s now operating in plain sight!
The Supreme Court helped create this monster by giving him immunity and now the DOJ wants to give his whole family immunity. Won’t someone please enforce our laws and Constitution!
You got it!!!!!!!!!!!!! The ones who will enforce our laws and the Constitution will NEVER be the republiCRAPS. They need the idiot in the Oval Office to tell them what to do, how to do it, when to do it--oh yes, and how to think. They're too incapable and stupid to do any of those. That's why they need their crazy Dictator. He's their favorite puppeteer.
All the previous scandals with presidents and political figures damaged those people because there was a time when most Americans were honorable. It’s different today. If there was a republican candidate running who was a conservative, a devout Christian and didn’t have any sex scandals and his opponent and the primary was some pig like Trump, the Republican voters would reject the moral conservative devout Christian Republican for the scumbag.
Ron Contra, Watergate and Teapot Dome were dealt with and compared to the depravity and just the severity of the depravity with Trump and all of the filth he surrounds himself with makes every other scandal look pretty minor in comparison.
The MAGAT is a two-faced rat bastard. They pretend to have the morality of a conservative Christian like Mike Pence but they tried to kill him because he was everything Trump wasn’t. At great personal risk to himself vice president Mike Pence followed the law. Republicans like that are never going to win in a primary against the typical scandalous lying perverted modern day Republican. MAGA Republicans prefer sleaze and lies.
As if dishonor wasn’t stewing in the GOP before Trump; Nixon’s “Southern Strategy,” the War on Drugs (which was a cover to explicitly target leftists and/or black people), pandering to Christian Evangelicals, Newt Gingrich, the patriot act, creationist bullshit, and being unreasonably uncooperative with Obama just because of his race are all examples of poor behavior from the Republicans.
Historically there are Republicans I admire (i.e., Lincoln, Ulysses S Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and Gerald Ford), but the party went to shit once Regan came to power. To quote my dad, “Regan fucked everything up.”
RE: your first paragraph. Well isn't that what is happening in Texas with John Cronin and Ken Paxton? I think Republicans must vote for the asshole they wish THEY could be. It just seems to me like Republican voters are just the bullies amongst us.
I really hope the people of Texas feel their worth and vote for someone that will advance their causes, not someones personal bank statements or balance sheet. The pols have been treating us like open checkbooks
If he will cheat, adultery, n ALL the citizens of Texas, HE will cheat ALL the time! Any way, any time, for whatever!!! He is an absolutely disgusting piece of flesh! Anyone say anything he has done for the good of the people of Texas!!
Paxton is a kind of person Maga loves. If a republican candidate has morality, integrity and is not a pedophile the MAGATS will immediately reject that candidate.
Senator Cornyn didn’t have scandals as far as I know and in the eyes of MAGATS that would immediately disqualify him for being a senator and a republican.
That’s what I’ve been wondering…ever since his name appeared in the pre-election times when Project 2025 started leaking out, and none of us could believe the crazy stuff in it! Wasn’t cutting funding for pediatric cancer research in it? stuff like that, where you’d think, “oh, come on! Nobody would cut funding for kids’ cancer research—that’s obviously going nowhere!”
But HE was there then, and he’s here now, and he’s like the Invisible Man. It’s like there’s some kind of mysterious cloaking device which blurs his very existence—you can’t see him, you can’t remember his name (which nobody even seems to agree on how to pronounce), you can’t picture his face. I’ve never heard anyone talk about his background—is it really possible that he believes in all the religious claptrap which is supposed to be achieved by moving ALL AMERICA’S MONEY away from stuff like USAID and pediatric cancer research research?
I would love to see SOMEONE in Congress start up an investigation into Vought, and his beliefs, and his goals. They’d probably have to wear special goggles to be able to find him in the mist which conceals him from public view…
They’re both definitely equally evil, but they’ve been in the news a zillion times more, and are familiar names and faces—also, both are publicity hounds, unlike Vought, who assiduously avoids being seen or interviewed, as far as I can tell. I just about dropped my teeth when I saw him being grilled in a congressional hearing recently!
And all of the horrible cruelty and destruction he put into Project 2025 is for JESUS CHRIST????? Let’s not forget that he’s part of that contingent of Christian Nationalists who want Israel to finish crushing Palestine so it can fully occupy Jerusalem, which (according to their magical view of a bit of biblical folderol) will be the last puzzle piee to click into place, and make JESUS come back, and them be sucked into Paradise!
All of us who know the truth about these scandals going on in front of the nations eyes agree that President Felon needs to be thrown out of office. But these damn Republicans have their hands in the billionaires pockets won't do anything about it and they are more afraid of losing their own elections instead of love of country and the Constitution. A pox on all of them. What goes around comes around and they will suffer immense loses when the rest of the country wakes up to what is going on once the truth hits every one in the face, especially these maga idiots.
Armitage is an absolute asset we all need. I follow him too and filed complaints against in NY & Ca asking AG to investigate World Liberty Financial & other action items he recommends on the daily. He makes it so easy to do, I wish MTN would also provide tool kits for advocacy & encourage ppl to use them like Christopher does! Folks will act if they are given the tools and can do so without spending hours upon hours out of their busy schedules.
Thank you for exposing the Teapot Dome corruption in Wyoming. The state learned nothing from that debacle and is now at the top of the list in promoting various crypto fraud schemes. I've never witnessed one place that is so corrupt.
Thank you for the history lessons and the excellent mapping of what is happening now. I think the only thing that will save our democracy is a blue wave in November, and our representatives having the appetite for change.

Meidas has yet to report on the Ashley St. Clair Musk admissions and their ramifications.
The Trump # 47 administration should be void ab initio!
HERE! HERE! Well stated and couldn't be more true. Bravo!

Yes! trump n his entire family, kkkabinet, administration friends need to be investigated, arrested n imprisoned!!!
We have to get involved and have a massive turnout, they cannot cheat! This is True, the GRIFT IS MASSIVE.
This right here. That actually gave me goosebumps.

The most shocking part to me is that R Congress isn't sweeping this shitter out of the barn.
Oh, believe me Adam, I did NOT MISS the "ultimate grift"! It is thoroughly incorporated into my "Epic Rage". You are absolutely right to be outraged as am I.

If heʻs not paying Federal taxes then heʻs not paying state taxes either. Could New York go after him? Florida wonʻt but he has properties in NYC.
Just think about it, Trump has been operating like this his whole life maybe not to this degree because he has total power now.
this is his MO!
It's absolutely breathtaking! Too bad he is such a worm, doing it as a side-grift on his henchmen's plot to destroy everything that is fine and just in our country; otherwise it would make a king-hell caper movie.
The truth in all its corruption. Excellent article!

I love Warren, but she is 76 years old. No more septuagenarian Presidents.
What about the smell of BoneSpurs overflowing, stinking, dripping Depends diapers that need changing 24/7/365
And why wasn’t Captain Crazy Pants outraged when that information about his smell got leaked? (Pun intended—not sorry.)
Text book cases of Narcissitic Personality Disorder 01 wil do anything to get your attention......in Diaper Dons situation......the more leaks and stink the more everyone is focused on him.
Yeah their spending our money is why.
Why is it so hard to stop this? The ignorance racism and self-absorption is staggering.
And bad news circulates faster w more intensity than the wins. That's got to change
Wtfu America - trauma. For many years

How come we never direct protests at Vought, also? Or talk about him?

I’d love to beat the crap out of him! Creepy lil bastard!
So excellently said.
Vought n nazi miller are in the drivers seat! I hope they have a serious wreck!
Staggering, unprecedented, ironic, insane, words that sadly don’t seem to carry much weight anymore.
All of us who know the truth about these scandals going on in front of the nations eyes agree that President Felon needs to be thrown out of office.

And this doesn’t even include the exemption from IRS review for Trump, his family and businesses.
That must be overturned!!!!
Am soooooooo disappointed in Representative Reuben Gallegio.
No wonder people think there's no difference between the two Political Parties 🤔
He’s not the only democrat who does it unfortunately- check out Pelosi and her stance on insider trading- they’re all as bad as each other
Correct.
Want to remedy that corruption, at scale and persistently?
If so, here's how:

This is what happens when you put a convicted felon in the WH. Why is anyone surprised?
PMURT IS A SCANDAL AND AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE WORLD
