#20 is wearing his new meme t shirt today:

"An Immigrant Didn't Steal My Job... Trump Did!"

"Trump administration ignores judge's order to turn deportation planes around

President Donald Trump's administration made a calculated decision to ignore a judge's directive to turn around two flights containing hundreds of alleged Venezuelan gang members, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.

The verbal order from the chief judge of the Washington, D.C., District Court, James Boasberg, explicitly told the government to turn around any aircraft that had already departed the country if it was still in the air."

"Democrats and Democratic-aligned independents say, 57% to 42%, that Democrats should mainly work to stop the Republican agenda..."

As do a lot of people who voted for Trump.... like the ones who are paying more, losing money and jobs, and watching as their kids and parents lose services.... so that billionaires can have more tax cuts.

At least we know now what side the Cultists are on. Whatever side Dear Leader tells them to be on.

In this case, the Dark Side.

"The cancellation of the Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty grant agreement will be a huge gift to America's enemies," RFE/RL President and CEO Stephen Capus said on Saturday.

"The Iranian Ayatollahs, Chinese communist leaders, and autocrats in Moscow and Minsk would celebrate the demise of RFE/RL after 75 years. Handing our adversaries a win would make them stronger and America weaker," Capus said.

VOA and RFE/RL are designated as undesirable foreign organizations by Russia."

We have SO much to Thank Trumpers for... I can barely wait to get started.

This includes the original DW German news report and interview with Craig Unger.

Wherein we learn how DFingT was recruited, who financed him, and that his 1988 Pres campaign, which kicked off a few months after these events, was the promise he is keeping now; destroying the Western Alliance.... as was outlined in the full page NY Times ad for his Presidential run.

Way too much for a stupid Whataboutism like #2.

"Trump says he was being a bit sarcastic' when he promised to end Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) " President Donald Trump said Friday that he was "being a little bit sarcastic" when he repeatedly claimed as a candidate that he would have the Russia-Ukraine war solved within 24 hours " and even before he even took office.

Trump was asked about the vow he repeatedly made on the campaign trail during an interview for the "Full Measure" television program as his administration is still trying to broker a solution 54 days into his second term.

"Well, I was being a little bit sarcastic when I said that," Trump said in a clip released ahead of the episode airing Sunday. "What I really mean is I'd like to get it settled and, I'll, I think, I think I'll be successful."

A fool and his Robson are never parted.

Trump is going to get Zelenskyy for not helping him to blackmail Biden. And he's going after Jack Smith and Liz Cheney and everyone else who dared to oppose him.

Because Petty Tyrants are petty and vengeful.

And because Trumpers love their Big Mean Daddy to spank them when they need it.

Trump and Musk should be arrested for vandalizing American.

"A White House statement said the order would "ensure taxpayers are no longer on the hook for radical propaganda", and included quotes from politicians and right-wing media railing against the "leftist", "partisan" VOA.

VOA, still primarily a radio service, was set up during World War Two to counter Nazi propaganda.

It is used by hundreds of millions of people around the world."

He could have just changed the name to Voice of Vlad.

"Judge blocks Trump from using 18th-century wartime act for deportations

Hours later, a federal judge temporarily blocked Trump's administration from using the act to carry out its intended deportations of the Venezuelans.

US district judge James Boasberg of the federal district court in Washington DC agreed on Saturday to issue temporary restraining order that prevents the Venezuelans' deportation for 14 days."

Doing what Authoritarian Dictators do.

As bad as they are at the maths, they are even worse at hiding them.

This is costing money, not saving it.

He's doing much worse damage to this country. Just sayin'.

Yemen should be thankful he's not THEIR rwing authoritarian.

Petty tyrants are gonna be petty and tyrannical.

We have fact-free, values-free Trumpers to thank for this mean-spirited, rationality and morally and legally deficient authoritarian billionaire oligarchy.

B, Waffles sure spends a lot of time fanticising about Zed.... 'watch out for your goodies', Zed!

Frank 'Waffles' Burns is a sex maniac!

Trump has been laundering money for the Russian Oligarchs for decades here in Florida and elsewhere that he has properties in which they can they can, 'invest'.

They have all the docs to prove it, too.

Prefers squandering money on billionaire tax cuts in what is the largest transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the very wealthy in our history.

Your whiny priorities suck.

I still find it hilarious that people, and I use the term loosely, like Robson and Visitor are SO proud of the Oligarch President and Oligarch-controlled Gov they've gifted to America.

All the while pretending that they are anti-Oligarch.

It's like Ultra-Cognitive Dissonance.... on ketamine.

Actual libs care that Ukraine has been raped and murdered by Putin.... whatever kind of faux-Tech Bros billionaire coddler 1Nut is only cares about pointing at it and laughing.

Brooks and Capehart on the Democratic division over the stopgap funding bill

It's become pretty obvious that if Republicans haven't figured out that their Cult Leader is a Billionaire, owned by a much bigger Billionaire, and currently implementing the Project25 for Billionaires Plan.... as they haven't figured that out by now, it's hardly likely to ever happen.

Billionaires (and millionaires) don't pay Soc Sec taxes on more than $176k of income, and pay much less as a percent on all their income than most people do.

So that's a sweet deal for them that will disappear if Soc Sec continues to exist; so they have to kill it and healthcare... because they won't go after banks, the MIC, and other Corporations who eat up most of the Treasury.

"The negotiation playbook Putin will employ is predictable. He'll first engage in what can be called the "reluctant-bride" strategy"extracting significant concessions merely for appearing at the bargaining table.

His demands are no state secret:

installation of a new Ukrainian government, prohibition of European security forces on Ukrainian soil, reduction or elimination of Western military assistance, and immediate recognition of Russian sovereignty over four eastern Ukrainian provinces and the Crimea.

We should harbor no illusions about a potential ceasefire.

Russian forces will inevitably exploit any defensive vulnerabilities along the frontlines while cynically blaming Ukraine for violating the agreement"a tactic Putin has employed repeatedly.

The fundamental reality remains unchanged: Putin will never accept any arrangement preserving Ukraine as a genuinely independent nation with credible security guarantees. What he seeks is capitulation disguised as diplomacy."
