In which we remember Trump has always surrounded himself with fellow criminals and amoral thieves. And he puts then in the Cabinet, to his and our eternal shame.
Here we remember EPA chief Scott Pruitt who had to recuse because he had loathed and sued his own department. Given his crookedness he survived only one year before 14 FOURTEEN!!!! investigations forced him out.
A Republican member of congress said this: Pruitt's "corruption scandals are an embarrassment to the Administration, and his conduct is grossly disrespectful to American taxpayers."

Trump 1 Scandal Blotter
In which we remember that Trump has always surrounded himself with weirdos and scoundrels. His first pick for Army chief had to withdraw because he the dude doesn't much like Muslims and the gays. Those views would probably get him promoted in Trump 2, unfortunately.

Mark Green withdraws from President Trump's nomination for the position of Secretary of the Army following prior controversial remarks made by Green concerning Muslims and concerning the LGBT community.[181]
Trump 1 Scandal Blotter
In which we remember the current corruption from the Trump family is nothing new. Trumps have always been open to bribes and taking advantage of the public trust. It's kind of what they do. And the gullible Republicans are just glad to breathe the same air as their cult leaders. This is how monarchy works, fellas. You are the doofuses hanging out around palaces straining for a glimpse of the royal family.

During his Tuesday meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, President Donald Trump falsely minimized the importance of the US trade relationship with Canada.
The World Cup will be the greatest it's ever been!
I am proud to announce the appointment of Andrew Giuliani as the Executive Director of the President’s Task Force on the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Additionally, Carlos Cordeiro will serve as Senior Advisor. Carlos is currently Senior Advisor to the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), and was previously the President of the United States Soccer Federation, where he was Chairman of the winning bid for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

"We are leaving wokeness and weakness behind. No more pronouns no more climate change obsession, no more emergency vaccine mandates, no more dudes in dresses. We're done with that sh*t." - THE Secretary of Defense
Since the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said that people already approved for refugee status prior to Trump's executive order should be admitted. The three judges in that ruling were appointed by Clinton, Trump, and Biden.
If you dumb f*cks spent less time reading the magic sky fairy book and more time reading news from reputable sources, you wouldn't be asking such idiotic questions.
9th circuit is all far left, activist, woke judges.
Reporter: What type of progress is being as it relates to all of those visits that he made to Russia? Trump: I think a lot because I think Russia wanted to take all of Ukraine and he stoped
Trump: I could announce 50-100 deals right now because I'm the shopkeeper and I keep the store. They can go shopping or they don’t have to go shopping because everyone wants to shop here. This is like a beautiful store.
“Trump supporters, you’re not just delusional—you’re an embarrassment to humanity. You’re slurping up the rancid Kool-Aid of a bloated, orange fraud who’d sell his own mother for a golf course, and you’re too brain-dead to see it. Blind Loyalty? More Like Masochism. You’re not loyal; you’re lobotomized. This is a guy who shat on every principle you pretend to care about—family values? He’s a serial adulterer who raw-dogged a porn star while his wife nursed his kid. Fiscal responsibility? He bankrupted casinos—CASINOS!!!—where the house always wins, yet you think he’s a business genius. Patriotism? He dodged the draft with “bone spurs” while real soldiers died, then called them losers. You’re not defending a leader; you’re kissing the azz of a coward. Failures So Big They’re Visible from Space. Let’s talk specifics, since your goldfish memory can’t handle it. Economy? He tanked it with tax cuts for billionaires while you got crumbs—your paycheck’s still trash, but Jeff Bezos thanks you. Trade wars? He screwed farmers so hard they needed bailouts, yet you’re waving flags at his rallies like he’s your savior. COVID? He bumbled it so badly that bleach injections became a punchline while bodies piled up. And don’t get me started on January 6th—your “hero” incited a riot to cling to power, then hid like a biotch while his mob smeared sh!t on democracy’s walls. The Harm’s on You, Dipsh!ts. You claim to love America, but you’re cheering a guy who’d rather hump Putin’s leg than defend the Constitution. Immigrants aren’t the enemy—your idol’s the one screwing you, cozying up to dictators while your towns rot from neglect. Jobs? Gone to robots and greed, not some border caravan. Healthcare? He promised a plan, delivered jack squat—hope you like dying in debt. Your kids’ future? Trashed, because climate’s a “hoax” to this moron while the planet chokes. Cult of the Damned. You’re not patriots—you’re a cult of drooling sycophants, worshipping a spray-tanned Antichrist as he pisses on everything decent. Democracy’s hanging by a thread, and you’re handing him the scissors. Wake the fucq up, or enjoy the ash heap you’re building. Your call, idiots.”
This is hard for simple minded people. I'll explain in simple terms.
If every case went straight to the SCOTUS, the case load would never be handled. Lower federal courts hear the bulk of cases. SCOTUS only reviews a small number of those appealed and only if they have big implications.
Federal district court judges are appointed and approved the same way as SCOTUS judges and their rulings have the same power. SCOTUS can overturn, but it is rare.
Thus far in 47's term, the SCOTUS has upheld the lower court rulings by not hearing or by hearing and agreeing.
Facts are tough.
It's fairly analogous to Trump hiring. Someone sycophantic enough for Trump to hire is awesome right up until they're not sycophanticenough. At which point they're horrible (....AND it's no reflection on their chooser!!).
Trump is so awesome that ONLY SCOTUS should be able to rule on him. Right up until they disagree with him, at which point they should be ignored, too.
That's called PATRIOTISM, for those of you who didn't know.
The correct word is psychopathic.
Per the Urban Dictionary: Somebody with an antisocial personality disorder whose character traits include at least fifteen of these twenty:

Juvenile delinquency 17. Early behavioral problems 18. Revocation of conditional release 19. Many short-term relationships 20. Criminal versatility
In short, a wolf in sheep's clothing, a predator in disguise.
“President Keyboard Warrior wasn't so brave when talking to the Canadian PM face-to-face. Long and short of it is this: Canada elected a former central banker with a doctorate in economics. We elected a reality game show host who bankrupted casinos.”
Either the top investors who made all the money had insider pump and dump info and traded on it, or a talking dog visited them in their dreams and provided them with trading tips that they remembered when they woke up and acted on. George Santos and Bob Mendez saw this and said "damn, that is some big time corruption!"
