Donald Trump was ranting and raving like the unstable lunatic that he is last night night all throughout the night. Posts like this and all caps for Republicans. This should be an easy yes vote. Ridiculous referring to the disastrous budget bill as he and Fox started to shake down all the MAGA Republicans that were no votes. Fox put their photos on and said, we're coming after you. It's real gangster stuff from a gangster regime

Donald Trump then post Largest tax cuts in history and a booming economy Versus biggest tax increase in history just lies about that and a failed economy. What are the Republicans waiting for? What are you trying to prove? MAGA is not happy and it's costing you votes Oh, wow, you put that in all caps and that scares your MAGA cult MAGA Republican Congress members as you actually crash our economy as there are terrible terrible job numbers as inflation core inflation rises to

2.7 percent last month, more than expected. As the fundamentals of our economy are crashing like the dollar, it's a weakest start since 1973. As America is increasingly losing its status as the world reserve currency as you lift sanctions from Russia and help them in their genocide Against Ukraine and you didn't even have the guts to tell our allies at NATO and the g7 you were taken away the Sanctions from Russia or that you would be depriving Ukraine of military assistance and weaponry that was promised to them? You didn't even tell Ukraine that you were stopping the supply of weapons to them? How dare you? What a despicable regime.

Donald Trump then posts, The US is on track to break every record on growth. And he puts that in caps. Go Republicans! Beat the crooked Democrats tonight. Pro growth, tax cuts never fail. Make America great again. Go Republicans. That's what you say. Beat the crooked Democrats. You know what? You promised that you would make things more affordable. Things are less affordable. You promised you would make housing accessible and affordable. The opposite.

You promised there would be peace in Ukraine in 24 hours. You lied about that. It's lie after lie after lie. And then you go big beautiful Bill Means and what else is Donald Trump saying? No tax on Social Security, everybody. And then the MAGA puppets go on their networks and say there's no tax on Social Security, which is an utter lie. There's nothing's no tax on social security, which is an utter lie. There's nothing about no tax on social security.

They are making things up to defraud the American people. Oh, and by the way, when they say no tax on tips, it's actually a deduction that's capped at a certain limit, then phased out. And then those people who would potentially get no tax on tips are going to lose their freaking healthcare. They're going to lose their freaking health care. They're going to be taxed more and so it's a gimmick to screw them and then there's nothing about no tax on social security. It is a lie.

This is a handout for the billionaires who will get trillions in tax savings at the expense of low income and working class people while 17 million Americans lose their health care and die. It's why I call this a murder bill because this disastrous budget bill is going to murder millions and millions of Americans. And then Donald Trump met with the MAGA Republicans and was like there's nothing about Medicaid in here. There's literally like almost a trillion dollars in cuts to Medicaid. What do you mean there's nothing about Medicaid? Have you even read this thing? Have you read anything in your life, you pathetic idiot you? The answer is no. Although maybe he did read the jobs report before it came

out. He goes too late. And that's how he refers to the chairman of the Federal Reserve because we have a little frickin baby in the White House who behaves himself like a spoiled toddler. No offense to spoiled toddlers. Too late should resign immediately. Fed chairs should be investigated by Congress. You want to know why the dollar's crashing? It's because of statements like that. You want to look at what's happening in our ports right now where the ships aren't coming in? You want to see what's happening there? Look at the fundamentals of our economy right now. They're not good. Not the pump and dump market that Donald Trump has created. Look at the fundamentals right

now and it is bad. Oh but folks the Trump regime is focused on the things that matter to the American people like the Stephen Miller backed group has filed a complaint against the Dodgers over DEI and and this Axios article they use a photo of Otani like do you realize that the Dodgers are made up of? Hispanic men and Asian men and like a lot of diverse people white black Asian Hispanic Latina. I mean, you know There's a lot the very nature of the team of the successful baseball team and baseball in general is of the successful baseball team and baseball in general is

Diversity but go ahead sue the Dodgers for for having a diverse team again. These are a bunch of racist idiots Who are running our country into the ground? Oh, but I'll tell you who's very happy about it right now, Dmitri Peskov Russia's version of Caroline Levitt their propagandist Peskov, Russia's version of Caroline Levitt, their propagandist, Peskov, Putin's propagandist, Kremlin welcomes the pause of US arm shipments to Ukraine, says it brings the war's end closer because it makes Russia be more able to easily genocide Ukraine. That's what's going on there. I mentioned that our European partners were caught off guard as US halts arms shipments to Ukraine. That's what's going on there. I mentioned that our European partners were caught off guard as US halts arms shipments to Ukraine Now let me read you this list right now Trump magazine Trump vodka Trump Airlines Trump stakes Trump water

Trump mortgage Trump travel Trump the game Trump casinos Trump University Trump Foundation and now the United States economy. All of those entities I listed were Trump entities that failed or went bankrupt. Trump's casinos went bankrupt several times over and over again. By the way, you don't have to just believe me or that list I just read. Going to Trump's company, DJT, Trump Media, their stock has to list all of Trump's bankruptcies by law So you go through it and it lists so in 1991 chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1992 chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1995 chapter 11 bankruptcy guess what in 2004 chapter 11 bankruptcy guess what in 2009 chapter 11 bankruptcy

casinos bankrupt over and over and over again as our editor-in-chief Ron Philip Kouskas says don't worry the debt won't be that bad from this bill because the growth of the economy as a result of this And tariffs is going to just be like Trump shuttle remember this here's Trump shuttle play this clip Look, this is not financially sustainable. It became clear that the Trump shuttle would not grow as an airline. Trump fired 100 employees. Just 18 months after the Trump shuttle launched, the airline had already lost $128 million.

In 1992, Donald Trump decided it was time to bail. Or how about Trump Taj Mahal casino? How about that remember this here's Trump Taj Mahal casino? When he built three casinos right next to each other couldn't finance the debt everybody told him if you build three casinos Next to each other they're gonna cannibalize each other and you're gonna go out of business to each other, they're going to cannibalize each other, and you're going to go out of business. Trump still got the people to go and fund and finance this thing. Screwed over all of the contractors, and anybody who was a whistleblower, a lot of them, he got them fired, they sued Trump, he ended up settling with them confidentially. But here's Trump

Taj Mahal Casino, play this clip. The hotel was advertised as the eighth wonder of the world when it opened in 1990. CINO play this clip. dollars to build. Is it necessary to build on such a scale? For scale, Charlie is what brings the people, the opulence, the size, the everything, is what really is going to make the Taj Mahal, I think, the most successful hotel anywhere in the world. But Monday at 5.59 a.m., the doors were locked at the Taj after 26 years, leaving thousands of middle-class workers without jobs. So how did Trump's crown jewel go from this... I'm really happy with what I'm seeing.

To this. I gotta show you a picture of what the casino looked like. It was pretty remarkable. Take a look at this. It's eerie. What do you think is the significance of the fact that the Taj Mahal ended in bankruptcy and was just deserted? It was a signature development for him, a signature moment for him, and a signature

disaster for him. Oh, and by the way, the Pentagon press secretary on the Iran nuclear deal, the Iran nuclear program, he said yesterday that we've degraded the program by only one to two years. In other words, it's not obliterated. Oopsies, you know, when you tell so many lies, it's hard to keep it all straight sometimes, isn't it? Here, play this clip. You know, our assessment of the battle damage around Fordow, Nantes, and Istafan remains unchanged. I mean, we believe and certainly all of the intelligence that we've

seen have led us to believe that Iran's those facilities, especially have been completely obliterated. The interesting kind of side point about this, Tara, is that all of the conversations that we've had since Operation Midnight Hammer with our allies all around the world, but certainly also in the region. They say a couple of things. They share our sentiments about the degradation of Iran's nuclear program and the fact that we have degraded their program by one to two years. At least Intel assessments inside the department

assess that, and I think their intelligence shares that conclusion. Do these current assessments by this department think it's been degraded or delayed by one to two years? I think we're thinking probably closer to two years, like degraded their program by two years. Two more things I want to mention quickly. One, Donald Trump bragging about his deal with Vietnam, which isn't a deal where basically we're now going to tariff Vietnam at 20% and tariff them at 40% if goods go from China to Vietnam, then back to the United States. So what that means is we're taxing American importers, not Vietnam, 20% to 40% to import goods from Vietnam. Vietnam gets 0%.

So Donald Trump believes that once Vietnam opens up its market to the US Which it was before all of these American companies are going to sell all this product to Vietnam as though Vietnam is some wealthy country You know the reason that there is a deficit is This is because America is the wealthy country Who's buying cheaper goods from Vietnam and Vietnam can't afford the products that are being made and exported by America by and large. And Vietnam was open for trade from the United States. What the hell are you talking about? Oh, you know why that deal happened with Vietnam? Oh, well, because they made a deal with Donald Trump at Ho Chi Minh City,

where Donald Trump is going to be able to build a Trump Tower there. $1.5 billion basically hand me out to Donald Trump and Trump's family. Clear in my view, in my opinion, quid pro quos taking place right there. Just give Trump a hotel, an ho-chi-min city. And then finally, this isn't getting enough attention. Let's talk about it. Are Ron Link hackers threatened to release emails stolen from Trump associates? Interesting, right? How our corporate media love to publish the Hillary it. Iran linked hackers threatened to release emails stolen from Trump Trump associates. Interesting right how our corporate media love to publish the Hillary Clinton DNC emails. But now they're like, I'm not sure if we should

publish these ones. Iran links cyber groups that hacked Trump's campaign in 2024. Say they've got the goods on him again. Reuters first reported the threat earlier this week from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. And they claim that they've got great stuff about about Lindsay Halligan about Stormy Daniels and others that they are ready to release. So we'll see what happens. We'll see what happens there. But isn't it interesting that when it's the DNC, the media was like, Oh, let us get us let us get our hands on that. Let's publish it. But when it comes to The media was like, Oh, let us get us, let us get our hands on that. Let's publish it.

But when it comes to Trump being hacked, the media is like, Oh, we can't touch that. We can't touch that. We're not going to, we're not going to publish it.
