Fascists and Tankies are two sides of the same trash authoritarian coin, but let's not ignore that it's the Fascists who are the only real, current threat.

It's pretty funny watching Republican clowns get outraged over their own tactics being used against them.

MAGA comes up with the dumbest conspiracy theories possible.
Notice how this "plan" hinges on predicted behavior entirely outside of the control of the planners. It requires Trump to be easily manipulated into going along with the plan and too stupid to see it coming.
The way I view this, given the seditious conspiracy recently uncovered by @DataRepublican, is as a vital part of their plan to get Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act.
How so? It's easy.
First, you roll out inflated polls to make their voters believe they're going to win, and better yet, promise them that they're finally going to get all the justice they've been promised against Trump and those who support him.
Then, when the GOP keeps control of both Houses of Congress on Nov. 3rd, their woke minions will experience an epic rug pull moment, and the Democrats accuse Trump of rigging the election.
That's when their envisioned riots break out across the country and (they hope) the Insurrection Act comes into play b/c that's when they would declare the federal govt is illegitimate and their plan kicks in.
The Trump family and the Trump administration are criminal enterprises, full stop.
For decades, the president has claimed charitable deductions on golf courses he never gave away. Now, facing one of the most significant tax bills of his life, he’s pushing the scheme even further—and appears to be using the presidency to get away with it.

This Forbes investigation is a must-read.
Donald Trump pulled in roughly $1.4 billion from crypto in 2025, plus more than $200 million from real estate, and faced a projected tax bill north of $500 million. So his company donated the "development rights" to his Jupiter, Florida golf course to a land trust, argued the course was a natural habitat worth protecting, and kept right on running the club. Forbes estimates the write-off could land around $825 million.
He has done this at least five times since 2005. New York's attorney general alleged two of those appraisals were inflated. In Doral, he claimed a deduction of up to $323 million, more than double what he paid for the entire resort.
A month after the Jupiter deal, he sued the IRS. The settlement his own Justice Department signed bars claims against him over matters that "could be pending," language that appears broad enough to cover this year's taxes. A federal judge found the case was brought to manipulate the judicial process. And the man now running the IRS, who took the job as this deal was being assembled, has a home backing onto those same Jupiter fairways.
This is absolutely ridiculous. Nobody should be able to use the presidency to write his own tax bill.

It's super cool that media outlets all seem to have agreed that it's fine to just print blatant lies from Trump with no correction as long as they tack "the White House says" on the end.
Great journalisming all around, guys.
Blanche wants everyone to pretend Republicans weren't constantly rending their garments over Biden's supposed influence over his DOJ.
To any observer who isn't a complete idiot it's beyond clear that it's Putin who is the obstruction to a peaceful resolution of Russia's war on Ukraine. Only Zelenskyy is willing to accept US ceasefire and direct negotiation proposals, Putin always rejects them out of hand.
Today, we had important talks with our American partners and with our other partners from Europe. Steve Witkoff was also here with us in Oslo, and Jared Kushner joined us online.
Ukraine immediately supported American proposal for an energy ceasefire. But Russia responded by continuing its attacks. We offered different options. We are ready not to hit sensitive parts of Russia’s energy sector if Russia stops hitting ours. Putin said no. But we’re working to find a solution.
We have some clear ideas on how to get to peace. And we are united with our European partners in this effort, and we want the Americans to take these ideas to the Russians. One of the important ideas is to move to a potential trilateral meeting of the leaders to address the issues that only the leaders can do.
Steve is going to Russia tomorrow. Let’s see what Putin has to say.
Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine and stands for peace.

"time for Kyiv to end the war"
Trump could not possibly be clearer that he wants Ukraine to surrender to Russia.
US special envoy Steve Witkoff will travel to Russia after meeting in Oslo with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and leaders of Norway and Finland, while President Donald Trump said it was time for Kyiv to end the war with Moscow reut.rs/3VYZ9p1
Trump made your gas more expensive and now he's giving your tax money to farmers to give them a break and buy their votes. No break for you, though.
It's beyond clear that Trump has decided to let Russia do whatever it wants to Ukraine in an attempt to hasten the end of the war via Ukraine's demise. All while claiming he cares about ending bloodshed and saving lives. Absolutely disgusting, utterly immoral, and downright evil.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has yet to approve the transfer of a significant batch of Patriot interceptor missiles for Ukraine, Ukrainian officials told the Kyiv Independent, raising suspicions that Washington is deliberately withholding the weapons.
The delay comes amid daily Russian ballistic strikes on critical infrastructure and follows wider political tensions over Ukraine's strikes on Russian oil refineries.

Trump: "We are currently negotiating with Putin over Ukraine"

Chamberlain: "We are currently negotiating with Hitler over Czechoslovakia"
The difference is that Chamberlain wasn't trying to make business deals with Hitler on the side to further enrich himself.

BREAKING
The BBC subpoenaed Jack Smith for a deposition to defend itself against Trump's defamation lawsuit.
Smith didn't object to the subpoena.
Team Trump opposes. buff.ly/cf6GaG2
ALT No one forced Plaintiff to file this lawsuit and to dispute that his speech on January 6 incited the violence that followed at the Capitol. But as long as he chooses to maintain the case, he cannot commit the fundamental injustice of preventing the BBC from obtaining the evidence it needs to robustly defend itself on every element of his claim, including Plaintiff’s burden to prove falsity.
Reminder: Republicans specifically added a provision to the Graham Act to allow Trump to waive the sanctions. Now they're pretending they're mad that he used the provision they handed him.
Beyond irresponsible. What part of enforcing a law passed 86-11 by the Senate does the President and his advisors not understand? It’s unconscionable that this administration is capitulating to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians every single day. If the President wants to actually bring down energy prices, he can do it by solving the Iran problem, not by doing a solid for Vladimir Putin.
