Using the powers of government for personal political revenge:

President Donald Trump directed the Justice Department to investigate former Homeland Security official Miles Taylor over his “anonymous” essay and book hammering Trump during his first term. Trump went so far as to accuse Taylor of committing treason, a capital offense, for writing about what he saw during Trump’s first term.

Trump also ordered the DOJ to investigate Chris Krebs, Trump’s election security director during his first term. Trump wildly suggested Krebs was part of an effort to steal the 2020 election as Krebs repeatedly said there was no evidence of fraud that he could find.

Contrary to their claims, there was no mistake. “Intellectual property” just doesn’t fit the context. The problem for ICE, our newly self-appointed thought police, is the enormous public backlash coming back at them.

With President Trump’s tariffs spurring a stock market breakdown, Jon Stewart is disappointed by Trump’s uninspired attempts to save face.

In his Monday monologue, Stewart showed viewers Trump’s recent Truth Social post telling Americans, “Don’t be a PANICAN (A new party based on Weak and Stupid people!).”

“Panican?” Stewart replied. “The genius who gave us classics like ’Sleepy Joe’ and ’Crooked Hillary’ just s–t out ‘you’re a Panican’?”

Stewart jokingly asked Trump, “Did the overseas factory you had been sourcing your nicknames from get shut down during the tariff war?”

Going so far as to call on a nuclear war analogy, Ackman warns: “The president has an opportunity to call a 90-day time out, negotiate and resolve unfair asymmetric tariff deals, and induce trillions of dollars of new investment in our country. If, on the other hand, on April 9th we launch economic nuclear war on every country in the world, business investment will grind to a halt, consumers will close their wallets and pocket books, and we will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitate.

Take your blinders off, Bubba. King Donald has already “severely damage[d] our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitate.” The deed is done.

Meanwhile:

U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) replied to Ackman: “If you enabled him in becoming president may I suggest you shut the [expletive] up?”

U.S. Senators Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-New Hampshire), who is also Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem calling on Noem “to immediately explain how the Department of Homeland Security mistakenly sent an email to Ukrainians on humanitarian parole in the U.S. that they had seven days to leave the country.”

As seen in the letter below, Murkowski and Shaheen explain that “Ukrainians who have participated in the Uniting for Ukraine program have entered the U.S. lawfully, passed rigorous screening and vetting requirements and have been required to find financial support from private U.S. sponsors.”

The Senators added, “Abruptly and cruelly telling victims of Russia’s war to leave the country would not reflect American values — and it risks emboldening Putin to continue the war, despite President Trump’s stated objectives to establish peace.”

Murkowski and Shaheen wrote that “The fact that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) drafted such a notification is alarming,” noting that Congress has not been notified regarding any proposed changes to the program. The lawmakers said their congressional staff inquiries to DHS “resulted in conflicting responses that demonstrated a disturbing lack of interagency coordination or strategy on the status of humanitarian parole for Ukrainians.”

Why would you expect anything better from a bimbo?

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth led a key Oval Office meeting at the White House on Friday when JD Vance made an embarrassing comment.

After Trump called on Vance to say something- he called Vance a “very good vice president”- the vice president seemed subdued in his reply.

“I am just here to watch the show, sir,” Vance said.

There’s a reason why he is called J.D. Dunce!

President Trump has been captured on camera doing something that some people deem questionable at a major event. It’s left a lot of people around the world stunned

A clip was recently shared on TikTok, which shows the President appearing to fall asleep while attending a major event. The footage appears to show First Lady, Melania Trump, trying to keep him awake as he dozes off during a National Prayer Service.

Over the video, which shows him closing his eyes and dozing off during a musical performance, the content creator wrote: “Melania makes sure Trump doesn’t turn prayer service into nap time”.

The video has left people stunned, as they can’t believe he would do something that could be considered “disrespectful” at such an important event. It’s claimed he “struggled to stay awake”, causing his wife to subtly intervene.

One person said: “Time to call him sleepy Don.” Another wrote: “Sleepy.”

A third thought it was for good reason though, as they added: “Considering the mess he’s been cleaning up, I say my boy is very tired.”

Yet he whines about “Sleep Joe” Biden? Look in the mirror, Bubba!
