The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues

It seems like years ago, but it’s just a touch over two weeks ago since I received that asinine response from Loudermilk the Traitor. Every time I sit down to compose a counter-response to it, there’s a virtual tsunami of more asinine things the current mis/mal-administration is doing and I have to start over. The first weekend of April is a 3-day weekend for me so I’m hoping I can buckle down and get a comprensive rebuttal to said traitor.

Creative! I like that.

I didn’t make it up. Someone on Facebook did. I hope you can see the post here.

Nothing at all under “Amtrak News” or “Amtrak Recall” about this. What am I missing here?

Isn’t that strange? The news is only reported in this one magazine, and I can’t find the mentioned Amtrak press release anywhere.
Nevermind-more news here…but still no press release: Amtrak sidelines Horizon car fleet, leading to widespread cancellations - Trains

From the annals of “Everything is going according to plan …”

Treasury Department and IRS officials are predicting a decrease of more than 10 percent in tax receipts by the April 15 deadline in comparison to 2024 filings, which would amount to more than $500 billion in lost revenue, according to the Post. The newspaper said it spoke with officials who shared nonpublic IRS data.

IRS officials reportedly tried to warn the incoming Trump administration about DOGE’s planned staffing cuts in January. “Aggressive reductions to budget and personnel capacity risk backlogs, delays, reduced receipts, and diminished capacity to build next generation digital capabilities,” a presentation seen by the Post given by tax officials to Trump’s incoming Treasury Department team said.

With Miller’s permission, I have moved all the posts about chatting with a reporter over Signal about war plans to their own pit thread.

Sure it does. Why do you think they want to transfer income from the bottom 40% to the top 5%?

There’s a certain irony in a fascist regime that can’t even make the trains run on time.

Der Spiegel says it has Hegseth’s Gmail password.

I saw that they found people’s personal phone numbers and email addresses. And that they found “some passwords”. But the cite i read was vague, and very much did not say the email passwords were found.

The extreme punishment fetishist gets a guided tour of CECOT.

No word if any animals were harmed in the conducting of this guided tour.

But there certainly is proof that many humans have been harmed and denied their rights in this criminal act by the Firxt Felon. And this sadistic piece of work is delighting in it.

Hey, let’s talk about reparations. That should be good for a debate.

What the hey, it’s the grift that keeps on grifting. More news of the 2nd Felonial Era.

The kind of winning the Firxt Felon is famous for keeps on keeping on.

More tariffs Firxt Felon47 doesn’t understand are in effect and he says it’s forever.

“We’re gonna have tremendous goodies in the bag for women too. The women, between the fertilization and all the other things we’re talking about, it’s gonna be great. Fertilization. I’m still very proud of it, I don’t care. I’ll be known as the fertilization president and that’s okay.”

“Something happened. If you go back 20 years, autism, think of it – one in 20,000 children. Think of that. One autism. You see it all over. One in 20,000 children. Now it’s one in 36 children. Now, what the hell is that all about? There’s something out there and we gotta find it.”

REPORTER: Do you think tariffs are gonna be good for Tesla?

TRUMP: Good for who?

R: Tesla

TRUMP: Ahhh. Well, he has a fantastic – Tesla – I think they may ahh – it could be a net neutral or it could be good

“We’re opening up our coals mines again … we don’t like the wind because we think it ruins the landscapes, the plains. It ruins them … it looks horrible in the oceans.”

“A woman, by the way, the head of homeland, is doing – Kristi – is doing a great job.”

“We got a lot of votes because of Hannibal Lecter.”

“On day one we’re ending the inflation nightmare that Joe Biden created and caused.”

The dumb fuck, is, of course wrong again.

This is just so maddening. Windmills are proof of humans ability to overcome. To innovate. To solve problems. And frankly they are beautiful.

Coal mines, not so much.

I enjoy asking to my MAGA relatives if they know what state has the most wind power (they never know) and pointing out to them that it’s Texas, that liberal bastion.

Yeah, but that’s a manly MAGA wind, not some sissy California librul breeze.

Windmills do not work that way!!

As Bergen Evans, the Proto-Cecil, remarked in a footnote in one of his books, Mussolini did NOT make the trains run on time, despite that being the saying. He’d been in Mussolini’s Italy, and knew from personal experience.

So Mussolini (or his supporters) lied about it. Imagine that.

A side question (to which I don’t really need an answer)-I wonder if Putin borrowed the “shirtless manly picture” idea from Mussolini.
