The stench of panic is all over this administration. Flop sweat city.


Trump is really blaming rates set by greedy credit card companies on Biden lol. I had bad bad credit ages before Biden was around, and always got card offers with 33% interest. It's fascinating how he somehow manages to work a diss to either Biden or Obama in almost anything he posts. And a pat on his own back for good measure. I've never seen anyone who toots their own horn as much as he does. Jan 20th 2026 will be the one year aniverary of the "historic and very successful Trump administration." He and I have a very different definition of successful, and very successful? LOL. Historic? I guess it's been quite the historic trainwreck.

All these acts need to state they are cancelling due to the Trump name and a nasty case of bone spurs.

The venue will quite likely be among the most beautiful to ever host professional wrestling. Professional wrestling in a room with chairs made of marble and gold seems like it’s just asking for someone to get their skull caved in.

It won’t be AEW, considering Brody King’s ring attire lately;

Mick Foley won’t be there either.

The phrase "isn't qualified to carry his jockstrap" is not one I have ever used before but certainly applies here so I will. WhiskeyLeaks isn't qualified to carry Senator Kelly's jockstrap.

Kelly will win any legal fight

Hegseth always does stuff for Trump only

McCain, and now Kelly, hopefully the Republicans can kiss Arizona good-bye.

What an embarrasment ... I wonder if he'll change his mind and back Machado as VZ pres if she gives him the prize.

Trump to meet Machado, says it would ‘great honor’ to accept her Nobel prize

President Trump said he looks forward to meeting with Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado next week, adding that it would be a “great honor” to receive her Nobel Peace Prize.

Machado told Fox News host Sean Hannity on his show earlier this week that she would like to give her Nobel Peace Prize, which she won earlier the year, to Trump.

Trump, who has repeatedly suggested he should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, told Hannity on Thursday he’d be pleased to accept it from her.

“I’ve stopped eight wars,” Trump said. “I think it’s been a major embarrassment to Norway. Now, I don’t know what Norway has to do with it but that’s where the committee is located, a lot of Norwegian people.” ...


JFC! Just give him a No-Bell Piece prize and get it over with. A tin bell without a clapper. It will make him happy. But will also confound and confuse him for weeks. shiny thing in his little hands, shiny things are everything to him. Another participation trophy for the 8 year old in chief. hopefully Machado is already making a lead copy, gilded. He will never be able to tell the difference, and his ass lickers would never dare tell him if they found out.

Trump wears "happy Trump" pin at press conference and reporters laugh with him ... A pin for a pinhead. Maybe he figured advertising a "Happy Trump" he could attract some underage girls?


He also falsely claimed in his usual lie fest presser to have won Minnesota three times (the real total is zero). The press corps is largely cowed and useless. The press is there to report the news, not be fan boys and girls!

We always used to laugh with our grandpa too, even when something isn't funny. They say it really helps dementia patients. Sundown comes early for Whiny McPedo these days. He starts sundowning right after breakfast.

25th ...

The Nobel Committee has spoken on the matter ....


Machado would be allowed to give him the physical medal if she wanted, but it wouldn’t make him a Nobel laureate. In the minds of normal people and the rest of the world, of course It wouldn’t. She might give him the physical award, and in the delusional bubble known as Trumpworld, that makes it his. And that’s all that counts. The thing he wants most is to have it to display. Hell, he’ll probably start wearing it everywhere.

Jesus this guy is unfit to be president - just read this exchange:


Everyone around him needs to be impeached so they can never run for public office ever again. Clearly they are taking advantage of Trump to enable their agenda.

But the Deficit!!! DOGE!!!! Peace Prize!!!!
Surprise, Hitler needs a larger military.

Trump proposes massive increase in 2027 defense spending to $1.5T, citing 'dangerous times'

So the only way to do that is to add massively to the debt right?

And the rest of us be like, hmmm ... are you going to use that military vs us? Like everyone (maybe except Russia)?

I guess a pre defensive maneuver would be to not finance said spending. Drop the dollar and drop the bonds.

Midterms are, of course, going to be huge.

This would be like me going on Ebay and buying a Super Bowl ring from an ex NFL player who's in need of money. Then wearing walking around, with it on bragging like I won a Super Bowl. Even if she gives him HER award, he still won't be a Nobel Peace Prize winner. But I somehow doubt he understands that. It's pathetic how he grovels. I suppose the physical award doesn't actually matter as much. She'll always be recognized as the winner and he'll be known as the guy who begged until he got sloppy seconds.

One little country is constantly critiqued and condemned by the UN for its frequent crimes against humanity and breaking of UN resolutions and flouting of international laws. So one big country withdraws from many of the UNs orgs and institutions. Basically to delegitimize the UN on behalf of the little country even at the expense to itself, stature and respect around the world.

Trump did not make this decision out of the blue. It was made by others on behalf of the little country that has constituted an ever burdensome monkey on the US's back.

WITHDRAWING FROM INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations that no longer serve American interests.
  • The Memorandum orders all Executive Departments and Agencies to cease participating in and funding 35 non-United Nations (UN) organizations and 31 UN entities that operate contrary to U.S. national interests, security, economic prosperity, or sovereignty.
  • This follows a review ordered earlier this year of all international intergovernmental organizations, conventions, and treaties that the United States is a member of or party to, or that the United States funds or supports.
  • These withdrawals will end American taxpayer funding and involvement in entities that advance globalist agendas over U.S. priorities, or that address important issues inefficiently or ineffectively such that U.S. taxpayer dollars are best allocated in other ways to support the relevant missions.

Important allies are speaking out on state of affairs

France ‘rejects the new colonialism and new imperialism’, said Emmanuel Macron.

Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German president, said the erosion of the world order had already reached an advanced stage.


The presidents of France and Germany have sharply condemned US foreign policy under Donald Trump, saying respectively that Washington was “breaking free from international rules” and the world risked turning into a “robber’s den”...
