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?”

Irish Star: Trump suffers mental collapse after ‘senile’ moment on stage in the middle of live Liberation speech

During his Liberation Day address, President Donald Trump appeared to unravel on live TV, bizarrely insisting that more than 90% of Japanese cars are made in Japan.

Despite moving on with his speech, one listener managed to point out the flub. “90% of Japanese cars are made in Japan. Lol,” one person wrote on Twitter. “Trump is too old and senile but maga eat up everything he says.”

…

In addition to his numbers flub, Trump reportedly left the stage after his speech and had to be escorted back to the dais in order to sign the bill that placed the tariffs in effect at midnight. In the video, the 78-year-old president can be seen smiling and waving to the assembled crowd before walking off and chatting with another official who points him back to the desk.

Irish Star: Mexican President issues chilling five word warning to Trump over drone strikes on cartels

King Donald is threatening drone strikes inside Mexico:

Amid ongoing threats from President Donald Trump to use drone strikes against drug cartels, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum reiterated her opposition to any military action inside her country. 

“We do not agree with any kind of intervention or interference,” Sheinbaum told reporters Tuesday at her daily morning news conference. “This has been very clear: We coordinate, we collaborate, [but] we are not subordinate and there is no meddling in these actions.”

The president’s comments come as reports are growing that the Trump administration is considering carrying out military strikes on cartel targets. Reports suggest the administration is prepared to act unilaterally if Washington cannot secure Mexican support. 

Will this happen before or after we liberate Greenlanders from themselves?

Trump has repeatedly asserted that Mexico is “essentially run by drug cartels” as assessment the Mexican President has pushed back on saying Mexico would defend its sovereignty against “violations by land, sea or air.”

Raw Story: ‘Traitor!’ Vance joins enraged MAGA fans in lashing out at ‘petty’ GOP senator after snub

With their bully boys hard at work, it’s scarcely surprising that there are so few openly honest Republicans left in Congress. Freshly back from insulting Greenlanders, J.D. Dunce heads up an assault on one of their own:

Vice President JD Vance led a barrage of MAGA-inspired attacks against Sen. Mitch McConnell on Tuesday in a rare public rebuke of the former Republican leader over his refusal to support a key Pentagon nominee.

The war of words ignited shortly after McConnell found himself the lone Republican vote against Elbridge Colby, President Donald Trump’s selection to be the Defense Department’s top policy strategist.

“Make no mistake: America will not be made great again by those who are content to manage our decline,” McConnell said in a statement that was quickly circulated on social media.

Mediaite: James Carville Warns Americans Should Be On ‘High Alert’ — After Listeners Suggest Trump Will ‘Rig’ Midterms and Declare ‘Martial Law’

Democratic strategist James Carville warned Americans to be on “high alert” after listeners suggest President Donald Trump would do everything from rigging the upcoming midterm elections to declaring martial law.

On the Politics War Room podcast with co-host Al Hunt, Carville answered questions submitted by listeners. The first questions asked whether Trump will “rig” upcoming elections and the other suggested he was “sparking” nationwide protests to justify declaring martial law.

…

Carville claimed Trump does not “like” the United States or respect the Constitution. The country, he declared, is “in the midst of a collapse,” citing stock market struggles amid Trump’s tariffs.

“I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: Trump does not like the United States,” Carville said. “He doesn’t like our laws, he does not like our Constitution. He doesn’t like our people. He calls them fat. He calls them poorly educated, slobs, stupid. And he is in the midst of what I believe — I’ve said, and yet, continue to believe even stronger every day — we’re in the midst of a collapse.”

If Trump is “going down,” Carville added, “he’s going to try to take the whole country with him.”

“He is not loyal to the United States of America. He does not like this country. He criticizes it all the time. He has affection for dictators. He has an affection for authoritarianism,” he said.

King Donald is a condescending out-of-touch piece of sh*t:

Conservative pollster Frank Luntz, who appeared on CNN to talk about voter confidence in the GOP amid the current economy, appeared shocked at President Donald Trump’s admonition that Americans not act “stupid” over his sweeping tariffs.

On Monday, as many people panicked over the tanking stock markets, Trump posted to Truth Social, “The United States has a chance to do something that should have been done DECADES AGO. Don’t be Weak! Don’t be Stupid! Don’t be a PANICAN (A new party based on Weak and Stupid people!). Be Strong, Courageous, and Patient, and GREATNESS will be the result!”

The Recount: Press sec. [Bimbo #1 Karoline Leavitt] addresses Trump attending golf event over dignified transfer of remains of soldiers who died in Lithuania.

“Secretary Hegseth was there to represent the administration,” the press secretary told the reporter Tuesday. “The president has expressed his condolences to these families, as have I, from this podium.”

Trump instead was in Florida, where he attended a tournament for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour at his Doral resort, before he traveled to his Palm Beach club for fundraising events.

Critics also questioned Trump’s decision to engage in a glitzy weekend that benefited his family’s wallet as the country panicked over tumbling stock markets caused by the president’s tariffs.

Nero fiddles while Rome burns.

Real quickly, can you explain why the President opted to send Secretary Hegseth to the Dignified Transfer last week instead of attending himself? Sure. Secretary Hegseth was there to represent the administration. The President has expressed his condolences to these families, as have I, from this podium.

Reason: Supreme Court Rejects Trump’s Claim That He Can Summarily Deport Anyone He Describes As an ‘Alien Enemy’

Posted on by

!!!!!!!!!!

The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously agreed that alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua have a due process right to challenge President Donald Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to summarily deport them.

…

As the Court’s unsigned order in Trump v. J.G.G. notes, “‘it is well established that the Fifth Amendment entitles aliens to due process of law’ in the context of removal proceedings,” meaning “the detainees are entitled to notice and opportunity to be heard ‘appropriate to the nature of the case.'” Specifically, the majority says, “AEA detainees must receive notice after the date of this order that they are subject to removal under the Act. The notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief in the proper venue before such removal occurs.”

That order decisively rejects the Trump administration’s attempt to deport suspected gang members without judicial review.
