The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues

Ooh. That Judge is good.

I mean she’s always good.

Ha! :laughing:

Guess who nominated her…

Here’s more on what’s meant by “showy arrest” for this instance.

This mis-/mal-administration operates on stereotypes. There is no intelligent planning happening. And the poor sod who stood up and said, “Hell no; that’s not appropriate” is punished.

Speaking of the felon’s prejudice…

“Dollar Store Obama”? Here, let me quote the magaracists’ favorite comment on just about any crime: Let me solve the puzzle for you.

Strike that. Let’s turn that comment into a puzzle as to what the felon’s miniturd meant.

2 Across: 5 letters, smoked in celebration. Cigar.
1 Down: 5 letters, often follows 2 Across. Store.
3 Down: 6 letters, prominent sidewalk figure of old. Indian.
4 Down: 10 letters (2 words), problematic gnome of bygone days. Lawn Jockey.

And another civil rights organization is sidelined by the felon’s bureau of incompetence.

And the reasoning? (And, damn, is that word doing some heavy lifting!)

Why do this piecemeal? Just cut ties with all current groups and then proudly announce an agreement to cooperate with the Ku Klux Klan, American Nazi Party, and a whole list of extremist groups. He could get a list of those groups from ADL or SPLC. Oh, wait.

You know full well any outfit showing the Progress Pride banner won’t be selected.

Let’s delve into the trainee’s judgment for a moment.

Oh, and make sure you don’t get caught kneeling while FBI.

Here’s an interesting take on what’ll make the felonious caveman cave.

And Reich’s next remark is spot on.

And I thought it was Putin who the felon was fronting for!

Yet another judge tells the felon, essentially, “Don’t piss on me and tell me it’s raining”.

What is the word for that? “Banana-Kim”?

Nope, nothing to see here…

Today, the Internet abounds with images evoking Satan. Some of the banners carried by white supremacists during their march in Charlottesville in August 2017 read, “Jews are the children of Satan,” with references to John 8:44. Even more recently, Robert Gregory Bowers, the perpetrator of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, justified his actions by stating: “Jews are the children of Satan. Christ Jesus came in the flesh…” (August 2, 2023).

Next thing ya know Trump (et. al.) will start talking about how the Jews Democrats murder children to make matzo pizzas.

Oh wait, they’ve been spreading that lie for years.

Hm. Jesus was Jewish, therefore he was a son of Satan. Jesus was the son of God. Therefore, Satan is God.

If they’re monotheists, Satan pretty much has to be God, because otherwise there are two even after the genealogical / Trinity exception.

The First Commandment says, ‘Thou shalt have no other gods before me.’ That implies that there are other gods.

Yea, Moses went up a mountain with a hammer and chisel. Verily and mightily, Lo!, he descended with carved tablets…

That was how I justified becoming a polytheist when I was about 12.

IIRC the proto-Jews are believed to have originally been henotheists, not monotheists; they believed that their god was preeminent among gods, but not the only one.

Yeah, like that one awful god who kept Baaling people out.

Go to room and think about what you’ve done.

Imgur

The cat is officially out of the bag. Not that it’s a surprise to us. The Leopards-Eating-People’s-Faces crowd might be startled.

Democrats should be shouting this from the rooftops. (Along with a bunch of other stuff…sigh…)

Trump Name-Checks Project 2025 as He Threatens to Dismantle Agencies

President Trump, who once insisted he had “nothing to do with Project 2025,” has implemented many of the proposals from the right-wing policy document.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/us/politics/trump-project-2025-vought.html?unlocked_article_code=1.rE8.ZHn7.P5e13fibCIa5&smid=url-share

During the 2024 presidential race, Donald J. Trump tried to distance himself from Project 2025, an unpopular right-wing policy plan written by Republican allies that laid out how he could wield power in a second term. The proposals in the 900-page document were widely viewed as extreme, and Democrats warned that Mr. Trump would quickly move to enact those policies should he return to the Oval Office.

Mr. Trump and other Republicans repeatedly dismissed those warnings as breathless hysteria, and his campaign team openly celebrated when the director of Project 2025 stepped down amid criticism from Mr. Trump as the plan became a growing political liability. In his debate last year with the Democratic nominee, former Vice President Kamala Harris, Mr. Trump was unequivocal: “I have nothing to do with Project 2025. I haven’t read it. I don’t want to read it, purposely. I’m not going to read it.”

But Democrats were quickly proven correct. Days after winning the 2024 race, Mr. Trump tapped Russell T. Vought, an architect of Project 2025, to lead his White House budget office. And just a few days into Mr. Trump’s second term, the president had already unleashed a broadside of executive orders and directives to federal agencies that directly echoed proposals from Project 2025.


Also covered by AP.

NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump is openly embracing the conservative blueprint he desperately tried to distance himself from during the 2024 campaign, as one of its architects works to use the government shutdown to accelerate his goals of slashing the size of the federal workforce and punishing Democratic states.

In a post on his Truth Social site Thursday morning, Trump announced he would be meeting with his budget chief, “Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame, to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent.”

The comments represented a dramatic about-face for Trump, who spent much of last year denouncing Project 2025, The Heritage Foundation’s massive proposed overhaul of the federal government, which was drafted by many of his longtime allies and current and former administration officials.

Nuh uh. I saw the documentary.

For some inexplicable reason, I always saw the “Burning Bush” as a lewd symbol.

Probably comes from your Juvenile Lobe, a recognized location in the male brain. :roll_eyes:


The Hebrew word in the narrative that is translated into English as bush is seneh (Hebrew: סְנֶה, romanized: səne), which refers in particular to brambles;[3][4][5] seneh is a dis legomenon, only appearing in two places, both of which describe the burning bush.[4] The use of seneh may be a deliberate pun on Sinai (סיני), a feature common in Hebrew texts.[6]

My bold.

To quote Butch and Sundance, “who are those guys?” Trump is not an “idea-guy” yet he has some kind of shadowy crafters of his agenda. With W you could tell the imprint of Karl Rove or Cheney yet for the most part it seemed like #45 was doing his own dealing. Sure, he’s got his revenge plans and King of the World goals. I am as distant to this stuff as I was eight years ago, yet there’s something different and more diabolical about #47.
