There is a simple and measurable explanation. Predicatably, Dumbass Jerk Trump announce progress toward another imaginary ceasefire. Like clockwork, Oil futures dropped to $90. And just like how many times in the past 3 months, the supposed ceasefire is punctuated with bombing. Anyone want to bet whether trump and/or his family took a position in the market right before the announcement? It’s no wonder DJT thinks we are all dumb. It’s as though he was elected to manipulate the markets to his personal advantage.
Im sure she is. The grammar in the texts are better than anything that comes from his mouth. He probably dictates them to her. Or maybe he records his rants, and she rewrites them.
Did you see that there was a nonpartisan, nonprofit group created by Congress in 2016 via a bipartisan congressional caucus with more than 350 members called America250 that were planning the semiquincentennial celebration, but Trump & his MAGA loyalist circumvented Congress & created their own planning committee & called it “Freedom 250”? It’s designed to make money, & Trump’s personal business is now trademarking the term “Trump 250” with a logo that looks very similar to America250’s logo. The Trump Organization has filed several trademark applications in connection with America’s 250th anniversary celebration. Anyway it’s all spelled out, with links, in Robert Reich’s Substack. I think Trump went to Roger Stone con artist call instead of learning math & English or one damn thing about business!
Bipartisan commission or not, I was always going to ignore the 250th anniversary after the felon was reelected. I'm old enough to remember the Bicentennial, & this feels nothing like that did.
Not that you’ll ever see this but, thank you for everything you do. Reading your articles is about the only manner of staying up to date that I can stand at this point. You have an exceptional talent for making horrible fucking shit consumable — like sugar coated gruel. Having apparently reached maximum mental maturity in the 3rd grade, I also immensely enjoy the occasional potty humor.
If I was in your time zone (I’m in CA) and able to get my lazy ass out of bed as early as you do, I’d offer to amateurishly edit your posts for free. Gee, doesn’t that sound enticing? lol Not that you aren’t doing a pretty awesome job self-editing on your own.
The nadcracker was overseas-per several vids-sweating his ass off, either superdrunk or coming down from it trying to pump up the WARRIORS with a peptalk that probably boomeranged back in his fervor
He seems to have carte ToddBlanche to call for strikes.
Don’t you just love all the war crimes stacking up for when this coup of our country is extinguished and justice returns?
Heaven help us, we have a moron in charge. Can't we just sail away and call it a win? Fox News will spin it as a victory. Trump can even have a parade. We don't care. We just need to leave and stop spending money on losing cause.
ME TOO! I was in bed last night tossing and turning over the possibility that credit card companies aren't fleecing its customers with interest rates high enough to keep them in yachts. We should send a big thank you to all those who are forced to use their credit cards to feed their kids.
Wouldn't it be peachy if the uber-rich were taxed at a 29.99% rate? However, even that wouldn't bring down our 31 trillion dollar national debt. Living on other people's borrowed money is how the plutocrats roll.
Ann, the trump humpers always focus on the good stuff! I know when I pay more for groceries, it means I’ll doing great financially! 🤥😵💫😵💫🙄 The Felon admin sees happy rainbows where a worker is getting crushing by a two ton weight.
Having Ken Paxton bragging about being as scandal plagued as the Felon is a bonus! Put a pin the calendar to mark the day where a truth fell out of a trump-humper’s mouth. 😳
Paxton's retort brings to mind a quip from the always entertaining Charles Barkley. When asked about the difficulties of weight loss, Sir Charles said, you can instead use the "illusion diet." When queried what that entails, Barkley explained that you hang around with people fatter than you so that you look slim by comparison.
Hassett and Soybean Scott are useful trolls — they’ve sold their souls a long time ago all for that gelatinous orange blob.
And for what? He’s decaying and short circuiting left and right these days — being hidden in some basement with his iPhone and crappy app to keep him busy.
That blood clot is coming soon, and then these sycophants will have a well deserved reckoning for all the damage they’ve done.
May we NEVER forget their faces or the shit they rained down upon us. May they NEVER have a moment of peace and be heckled everywhere they go.
I wonder if he can recognize Soybeans, because I swear to god, I can't tell the difference between him and Hassett. I'm pretty sure there isn't one--the resemblance in the last names is a dead give away that they're the same person.
I'm all for making them miserable for the rest of their lives, but in terms of prosecutions -- which must happen -- it has to be strictly according to the facts and the law. Nothing like the clownishly corrupt prosecutions currently taking place.
Very good point. Like Dante's Hell there are levels of depravity in this gang. At the top are soul sellers like Blanche, Bessent, Miller, Wiles, Hassett and a chunk of the Cabinet. Who are also in line for criminal conspiracy indictments to steal public funds. The next layer are the "easily expendables" that Donald is trashing from the gang margins. Like squeezing out playdoh from a tightening grip (thanks Adam!)--Massie and Tucker and Marge and Jones and Cornyn and many many more. Former enablers. Now enemies.
All of the "not-stupid" 535 members of Congress are very aware of the blatant $1.7 Billion theft from the Treasury by the Trump Family. Make a list of those Senators and Reps who approve of Trump stealing from their taxpayer constituents. These formerly honorable humans sold out their allegiance to America. They sold their honor to the Trump Family. We can't forget or forgive.
I also did some gardening. It’s exhausting enough to take me through 8 hours of much needed sleep. I stopped watching Sunday shows about 2 years ago. Margaret Brennan was already allowing trump’s goons to lie unchallenged.
He's the poster boy for "a face in need of a fist". In the interest of saving the bones in my hand, I'd use a cricket paddle. 🏏 but someone would have to stop me before turning his face into spaghetti sauce.
Yeah, right. I took my 13 & 14 yo grandsons to lunch Saturday to celebrate the end of school year. Same diner, same orders: cheeseburgers, fries, and a pop. $45 - last year it was $35. So much winning.
We were going to go out for breakfast after my morning Dr appointment. As we were about to go in I asked Mrs Mild if she had brought her meds, which were already late. She checked her purse and said no.
So we went home where I made avocado toast (avocados are about $1.50) and saved us about $40. Last year it proabably would have been $35 bucks.
There was a time when I got myself into a huge credit card hole. I was a single mom, three kids, public school teacher.The $125 a month in child support just didn't cut it. I was able to dig myself out but it was terrifying.
Well done Debra. A Very Easy thing to do. We don’t have one now,thankfully the Debit Cards Cover everything a credit card would do. Glad alls well now.
I figured out that "Freedom 250" thing was a scam, but "pay to play" wasn't on my Trumpistan bingo card! It hit me when people were saying "where the MAGAts at" when it came to the artitsts and i could name several (Jason Alden, for instance.) if this was really "for the people" real acts would have been paid real money to be there. But, no. This was just a big distraction! Because he really wants to get up there and yammer for 250 minutes about how wonderful he is and make disgusting insulting jokes about rape and E.Jean Carroll and whatever shit is rolling around in his head.
Great way for our country to celebrate its 250: held hostage by a foul smelling old fuxkwhit who will do his impression of "Fidel Castro on May Day." Fuck this guy.
He's gonna just keep all the money that was going to go the performers now so it's a win for him. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone from the UFC assholes to the people constructing his latest abomination is stiffed so he can pocket every cent.
This is a great article. I didn't know about the American 250 that had been set up by Congress in 2016. Leave it to Trump to "divert" the majority of the money to his Freedom 250, which is now in shambles.
And where is that money now? Most likely in the swamp rat's pockets. Which where all our of money seems to go lately.
I'm now working on my next article -it's a "feel good" piece titled "The Architecture of Despair". It addresses the evisceration of vital New Deal programs at a time when labor demand is falling, prices are rising, millions of people are currently or will soon be dealing with food insecurity, and how millions more will lose access to healthcare, intentionally timed after the midterm elections.
It would make a pleasant companion piece for "High prices are good for you, Clean Coal is nutritious and delicious, we're the law and order party, we're close to a peace deal, and we really need the billion dollar ballroom".
He’s panicking. They’re all panicking. The giggling cretins they send to the Sunday shows are panicking. If Doctor Ronnie hasn’t been getting them lotsa drugs to keep things rolling I’d be amazed.
Every time I see that leering jack-o-lantern puss on Kevin Hassett, I'm reminded of a line from Lawrence of Arabia:
Auda abu Tayi: "Give thanks to God, Brighton, that when He made you a fool, he gave you a fool's face."
Outside of the Batman comics, have you ever seen such a cartoonish collection of punchable, villainous, fool's faces? The only thing missing from this Cartel of Stupid are the outfits worn by the Joker, Penguin, Riddler and Mr. Freeze. Flat-out surreal.
today in Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit— apparently we're bombing Iran again.
"US launches ‘self-defense’ strikes against Iran amid stalled talks"
https://www.politico.com/news/2026/06/01/us-strikes-iran-stalled-talks-00944084
remember: none of this would be necessary if the Dems would stop chirping
The Straits of Schrödinger are a wild place!
Schrodinger's Strait
And its indeterminate state
Is because those two tools
Are reckless fools
Who caused this Hegseth Trumpgate
*slow claps*
I always love a good newly created limerick which tells it like it is. Thank you HI2thDoc. 😊😉
This one is a repeat from a month ago. No surprise that the Quagmire of Hormuz is unchanged since then.
Well maybe Iran just had a case of “the yips” and Donnie had to react.
Jk we’re in hell and not much we can do about it but just scream FUCK into the ether I supposed…
I'm no longer screaming into the ether - I'm inhaling as deeply as I can.
Inhaling deeply for 10 years is starting to hurt.
It's done wonders for lung capacity the world over
...into a paper bag.
a case of the yips. LOL! Thats it! 😂
Are SCREAMING YIPS a thing? If not, I'm inventing them immediately. Also SCREAMING CHIRPS. 😱 and there goes my glassware.
I think you just invented two new snack foods.
😂😂😂😂

Absolutly, 100% sure that's case.
His 2 tweets had some complete sentences... Do you suppose his new Ivanka look-alike is sitting at his side emitting this crap all night?
The disturbingly devoted Harp
Must not have a sense of smell that's sharp
In this entire regime
It sure does seem
That every "job" is a LARP
HAHA!!
Im sure she is. The grammar in the texts are better than anything that comes from his mouth. He probably dictates them to her. Or maybe he records his rants, and she rewrites them.
Somebody other than Donnie Demento has been emitting them since his second inauguration, or shortly thereafter.
So, talks are going well then?

"Why do you make us hit you?"
Tweet tweet
I wondered when he said Dems chirp if he was confused with tweet. He knows it's something that birds do...
Ahh! The answer appears! Yep, bet you're right.
Cue up “Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep” by Middle of the Road. Those aren’t birdies, Daffy Don, that’s the squeaking of the bats in your belfry.
Hey Jeff,
Not that you’ll ever see this but, thank you for everything you do. Reading your articles is about the only manner of staying up to date that I can stand at this point. You have an exceptional talent for making horrible fucking shit consumable — like sugar coated gruel. Having apparently reached maximum mental maturity in the 3rd grade, I also immensely enjoy the occasional potty humor.
If I was in your time zone (I’m in CA) and able to get my lazy ass out of bed as early as you do, I’d offer to amateurishly edit your posts for free. Gee, doesn’t that sound enticing? lol Not that you aren’t doing a pretty awesome job self-editing on your own.
Anyhow, you’re the best. Hang in their friend.

There once was a Hasset named Kevin
Who Drumpf thought descended from heaven
"We see increased stress
Never mind it's a mess
I'm buyin' a 7-11!"
And then there's this Bessent name of Scott

Darn, since you used twat already, I'll have to look elsewhere for rhymes with Scott😂. Here goes:
Soybean Scott
You entitled snot
You deserve to get
The same as Marie Antoinette
That would cheer the masses a lot
Egomaniacal twat! Of course they ALL are! Good one Frosty!
They certainly are! Thanks, Dave.
Brilliant Frosty!
Excellent!
I don't know about you, but I am so relieved that the credit card companies are in good shape. These idiots are writing ad copy for Democrats.
ME TOO! I was in bed last night tossing and turning over the possibility that credit card companies aren't fleecing its customers with interest rates high enough to keep them in yachts. We should send a big thank you to all those who are forced to use their credit cards to feed their kids.
Maybe they're doing well enough to lower interest rates from 29.99%???
Fat chance!
Wouldn't it be peachy if the uber-rich were taxed at a 29.99% rate? However, even that wouldn't bring down our 31 trillion dollar national debt. Living on other people's borrowed money is how the plutocrats roll.

Haha that’s BRILLIANT Unity.
Does Bessent’s husband trust him, given how pathologically he lies?
I wonder if he can recognize Soybeans, because I swear to god, I can't tell the difference between him and Hassett. I'm pretty sure there isn't one--the resemblance in the last names is a dead give away that they're the same person.

I had to quit watching the Sunday morning news shows. Just would set my Sunday off in the wrong direction.
It was a beautiful morning, so I put on some music and worked in the garden keeping my blood pressure at a manageable level.
Obvious lies with a smirk are not good for starting the day
I also did some gardening. It’s exhausting enough to take me through 8 hours of much needed sleep. I stopped watching Sunday shows about 2 years ago. Margaret Brennan was already allowing trump’s goons to lie unchallenged.
Not normally a violent person, but I would really, really like to break Hasset's jaw.
I would happily restrain him while you do it.
You beat me to it. The smirk on his face....arrrrggghhhhh!!!
He's the poster boy for "a face in need of a fist". In the interest of saving the bones in my hand, I'd use a cricket paddle. 🏏 but someone would have to stop me before turning his face into spaghetti sauce.
👏👏👏👏 A cricket paddle. Excellent.
But then who would bake the Keebler cookies?
With a rusty shovel. If the blunt force trauma doesn't get him, tetanus might.
“It’s a very limited spike”
Yeah, right. I took my 13 & 14 yo grandsons to lunch Saturday to celebrate the end of school year. Same diner, same orders: cheeseburgers, fries, and a pop. $45 - last year it was $35. So much winning.

Love my avocados! At Aldi they are 59 cents each. Last month they were 49 cents each.
There was a time when I got myself into a huge credit card hole. I was a single mom, three kids, public school teacher.The $125 a month in child support just didn't cut it. I was able to dig myself out but it was terrifying.
It's ridiculously easy for that to happen.
Because the interest is so high you can't pay it and your bill each month, so it just keeps growing.
Well done Debra. A Very Easy thing to do. We don’t have one now,thankfully the Debit Cards Cover everything a credit card would do. Glad alls well now.

this is a good deep dive into just how scammy Freedom 250 is: https://www.jezebel.com/freedom-250-performers-cancel-washington-dc-festival-donald-trump-martina-mcbride-bret-michaels
He's gonna just keep all the money that was going to go the performers now so it's a win for him. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone from the UFC assholes to the people constructing his latest abomination is stiffed so he can pocket every cent.
As I understand it, the performers were supposed to perform for free (somebody correct me if I'm wrong here). Just expenses were to be covered.
Also, I read that UFC is paying for the cage match, in return for promotion rights. In fact, they're already running ads about it. GAG ME!
This is a great article. I didn't know about the American 250 that had been set up by Congress in 2016. Leave it to Trump to "divert" the majority of the money to his Freedom 250, which is now in shambles.

It was going to be Keynes can’t rescue us now. Yours is far better. :)

From a couple of months ago:
Kevin Hassett lies with glee
Or he doesn't know the economy
Whatever the cause
I wish he would pause
And go back to the Keebler Tree
"allegedly has a PhD in economics" Allegedly is doing a heavy lift there.
“just sit back and relax, it will all work out well in the end.” I thought the same thing about the girls...JFC he's such a heinous pig.
May this be the week he meets the devil.
BEAUTIFUL Claudia photos. ❤️❤️
Ditto about the girls. Vomit inducing.
And I'll second your motion about this week.
“Fractured Fairytales” for adults… :/
These people are so comfortable lying, knowing both that Murc's Law exists...and you also have many people paid $$$$ to be professionally credulous.
