100% this. Republicans are authoritarians now, wanting their party leader to be the boss of all things. Fundamentally unamerican and anti-capitalist. Trump is doing the same thing that Putin does - make every company subservient to the regime. Killing the invisible hand so Piggie can be boss.
Sorkin: This is now state-sponsored capitalism. This is not really capitalism. Everything runs through 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue now. This is totally new. We have never had a time where CEOs and business leaders are making their decisions daily—where their strategy is based on whether it’s going to be in line with the strategy of this president, whether he’s going to agree or disagree, come out in favor or not, or decide to sue or not over whatever you’re doing. That is a fundamental reshift, and that is something that’s more akin to places like China, frankly.
This is the sound of Piggie wrecking America. Central banks around the world used to trust the dollar. No more. Central banks want gold instead. Piggie has killed the golden goose. He is truly a Russian asset. You absolute idiots . We are on the way to becoming Argentina in a couple generations.
The rush for gold by central banks is unprecedented: Unofficial gold purchases by global central banks is up to ~9,500 tonnes since 2010. This is ~3,700 tonnes, or +64%, more than officially reported purchases by these entities. Unofficial buying accelerated in 2022, and since then, central banks have accumulated ~3,500 tonnes of gold, or 37% of total purchases since 2010. China alone bought 118 tonnes of gold in Q3 2025, marking a +55% YoY increase

Yes, we are authoritarians because this is what’s required to corral you Hillary then Obama led monsters who tried running an inside coup to overthrow our government by proclaiming we were tied to supporting a Russian takeover of our country. There is no way we are giving you wild animals any air if we can help it. That was a hard lesson for us to learn. Our kids are just more important than you so you’re gonna need to deal with it or act out and go to prison. your choice.

Nice to see people seize unlawful power because they’re certain their enemies are terrible and that their cause is just. It’s truly a refreshing change from the scores of cases in which they do so while totally realizing that they’re the baddies.
And I know all you libtards want to forget how this American conflict started and want us to feel your pain, when you did nothing but deliver pain to us…and that’s just not how History will be written. You started it and we will let you know when it’s over, and it’s not over yet.
"Just look at Newsom, Waltz, Pelosi, AOC, Warren, Crockett & gang. You people are corrupt AF."
Just give the alleged corruption for each person listed with citations. You stated it, now back it up.
Start with Newsom. Do you believe this guy isn't corrupt? Simple question.
Speaking for myself, I think he’s self-serving and is running for office to satisfy his own ego. The French Laundry fiasco shows that he has no issue skirting the rules that he asks his constituents to live by.
I also don’t think he would ever pardon a convicted criminal who enriched his family and then be so stupid as to claim that he had never heard of him.
Ben Shapiro: "When Steve Bannon, for example, accuses his foreign policy opponents of loyalty to a foreign country…he's simply maligning people he disagrees with. Which is indeed par for the course for a man who was once a PR flack for Jeffrey Epstein. Check the record."

What do you make of his involvement in the fires, high speed rail & homelessness?

Choose Bannon and you will look smart.
I'm watching tonight's TNF hoping to see Nacua do the antisemitic touchdown dance. No such luck yet. Not even an antisemitic first down dance. Maybe he's been threatened with cancelation.
DOJ National Security Division lawyers are sweating tomorrow's deadline on the Epstein files. Trump was a confidential informant for the FBI on the Epstein case, so they need to redact ALL that stuff. Giuffre spilled all kinds of dirt on Alan "Dershie" Dershowitz so that stuff all needs to be waxed as well. It's not easy work. When in doubt, black it out. You need a lot of Sharpies.
