He's a lazy, illiterate, juvenile moron, part infinity:
President Donald Trump’s intelligence chief is exploring ways to revamp his routine intelligence briefing in order to build his trust in the material and make it more aligned with how he likes to consume information, according to five people with direct knowledge of the discussions. [snip]
One idea that has been discussed is to transform the PDB so it mirrors a Fox News broadcast, according to four of the people with direct knowledge of the discussions. Under that concept as it has been discussed, the national intelligence director’s office could hire a Fox News producer to produce it and one of the network’s personalities to present it; Trump, an avid Fox News viewer, could then watch the broadcast PDB whenever he wanted.
A new PDB could include not only graphics and pictures but also maps with animated representations of exploding bombs, similar to a video game, another one of the people with knowledge of the discussions said.
“The problem with Trump is that he doesn’t read,” said another people with direct knowledge of the PDB discussions. “He’s on broadcast all the time.”...
Such a PDB would also have to have the Malignant Fascist's name and image inserted several times a minute to keep his attention. Perhaps as a cartoon superhero. Or as a world- class golfer setting course records at one of his bedbug- infested golf clubs.
Electing this cretin was as close as it gets to an intentional act of national suicide. His handler Putin and the boys in the Kremlin have pulled off the greatest coup- by- ballot- box in world history.

"... You can tell that Republicans know how unpopular the Medicaid cuts in the bill are because they delayed their effectiveness date to minimize their electoral effect, repeatedly denied they are cutting Medicaid—and don’t want to talk at all about how slashing subsidies within the Affordable Care Act would take health coverage away from millions more Americans.
"They are hiding the Medicaid cuts behind 'work requirements' that are really bureaucratic paperwork requirements that would make it much harder for people with every right to coverage to access it. They would make it more difficult for others to maintain continuous coverage. And if these rules were not about 'cutting' Medicaid, the GOP couldn’t claim to be 'cutting' roughly $700 billion in Medicaid spending.
"But the GOP
thinks it has a winner in its work argument. It’s a tired but tested replay of a
very old (and, yes, offensive) trope about alleged grifters among supposedly 'lazy' poor people. House Speaker Mike Johnson offered a remarkable version of
this defense of the “work” provisions: He said they were aimed at 'the young men who need to be out working
instead of playing video games all day.' If ever there was a quote that should go viral, this is it.
Young men, after all, shifted toward the Republicans in 2024. They should know
what the party many of them voted for thinks of them..." -- E.J. Dionne, Jr., writing in The New Republic, about the "Big, Beautiful Bill" (BBB) that Republican MAGAts have passed in the House. His essay concerns the bigger picture of the Malignant Fascist's party/ cult's false posturing as the "party of the working class." As Dionne argues, time and time again the Republican Party has shown itself for what it is: a "pluto- populist" party (populist rhetoric married to plutocratic policies, such as the 2017 tax cuts for the wealthy legislation and the latest BBB wealth distributor and economy- tanker). Taking on the pluto- populist MAGAts on turf they've unwisely chosen (draconian cuts to Medicaid and SNAP) is not only the right thing to do, but, if those angry town halls being held by Republicans are any indication, a political gift that Democrats must make sure pays off for them.
Yesterday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a District Court's ruling that blocks the Malignant Fascist and his DOGE bags' illegal mass firings of Federal workers. From Reuters:
"The decision by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals means that, for now, the Trump administration cannot proceed with plans to shed tens of thousands of federal jobs and shutter many government offices and programs.
A 9th Circuit three-judge panel on Friday, in a 2-1 ruling, denied the Trump administration's bid to stay Illston's decision pending an appeal, which could take months to resolve. The administration will likely now ask the U.S. Supreme Court to pause the ruling.
U.S. District Judge Susan Illston in San Francisco on May 22 blocked large-scale layoffs at about 20 federal agencies, agreeing with a group of unions, nonprofits and municipalities that the president may only restructure agencies when authorized by Congress." (our emphasis)
The MF's regime has indicated that they will appeal the decision to the Republican-dominated Supreme Court. Nonetheless, this decision and dozens like them blocking or declaring the MF's executive orders unconstitutional or illegal marks another stinging rebuke from the Federal judiciary of his lawless autocratic actions.

The "King of Swing," bandleader and clarinetist Benny Goodman was born on this day in 1909. In his heyday in the 1930's and 40's, his big band style of jazz became known as "swing" for its danceability. Goodman was among the first to lead integrated bands, which started the careers of many jazz musicians, including Teddy Wilson and Lionel Hampton. His 1938 concert at Carnegie Hall has been called "the single most important jazz or popular music concert in history: jazz's 'coming out' party to the world of 'respectable' music."
Here are two of his most familiar hits, 1936's "Moonglow" (with Goodman on clarinet, Teddy Wilson on piano, Lionel Hampton on vibraphone, and Gene Krupa on drums), and 1937's "Sing, Sing, Sing" (with Goodman's band, including Harry James on trumpet).
The Guardian's Marina Hyde writes a farewell to the South Afrikaner fascist and cheating druggie sociopath Elon "Leon" Musk from his botched mission to destroy the entire Federal Government:
"Musk arrived in government promising to slash spending by $2tn. He leaves it a mere $1.86tn short of that target, even by his own estimations. Meanwhile, the president’s new tax bill is set to add $2.3tn to the deficit. I imagine Musk thought his government finale would be a spectacular extravaganza – “you’re welcome, Washington!” – involving 2,000 chainsaw-wielding chorus girls. Instead, it’s a tweet. And yes – we DO all still call them tweets.
Ironically, the thing that Musk has been most stunningly effective at slashing is his own reputation. Think about it. He arrived in Trump’s orbit as a somewhat mysterious man, widely regarded as a tech genius, and a titan of the age. He leaves it with vast numbers of people woken up to the fact he’s a weird and creepy breeding fetishist, who desperately pretends to be good at video games, and wasn’t remotely as key to Space X or Tesla’s engineering prowess as they’d vaguely thought. Also, with a number of them apparently convinced he had a botched penile implant. Rightly or wrongly convinced – sure. I’m just asking questions." (our emphasis)
His warped, arrogant, reckless self-importance came out vividly in his cruel zeal to dispose of thousands of civil servants like so much used tissue paper (or "deleting" them, as he would put it). The lasting images this real-life Bond villain has created for himself will be him joyfully waving a chainsaw and giving the Nazi salute. He's welcome to it and as bleak a future as possible.
The New York Times has a blockbuster piece this morning on the aberrant lifestyle of the ex- DOGE douche and former co- President. Here are some excerpts:
As Elon Musk became one of Donald J. Trump’s closest allies last year, leading raucous rallies and donating about $275 million to help him win the presidency, he was also using drugs far more intensely than previously known, according to people familiar with his activities.
Mr. Musk’s drug consumption went well beyond occasional use. He told people he was taking so much ketamine, a powerful anesthetic, that it was affecting his bladder, a known effect of chronic use. He took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms. And he traveled with a daily medication box that held about 20 pills, including ones with the markings of the stimulant Adderall, according to a photo of the box and people who have seen it.
It is unclear whether Mr. Musk, 53, was taking drugs when he became a fixture at the White House this year and was handed the power to slash the federal bureaucracy. But he has exhibited erratic behavior, insulting cabinet members, gesturing like a Nazi and garbling his answers in a staged interview.
At the same time, Mr. Musk’s family life has grown increasingly tumultuous as he has negotiated overlapping romantic relationships and private legal battles involving his growing brood of children, according to documents and interviews...
The Times goes on to cover some of the details of Musk's private life, the broad strokes of which have been known or rumored about:
Mr. Musk has also been juggling the messy consequences of his efforts to produce more babies.
By 2022, Mr. Musk, who has married and divorced three times, had fathered six children in his first marriage (including one who died in infancy), as well as two with Ms. Boucher. She told people she believed they were in a monogamous relationship and building a family together.
But while a surrogate was pregnant with their third child, Ms. Boucher was furious to discover that Mr. Musk had recently fathered twins with Shivon Zilis, an executive at his brain implant company, Neuralink, according to people familiar with the situation. [snip]
Even as Mr. Musk fathered more children, he favored his son X. By the fall of 2022, during a period when he and Ms. Boucher were broken up, he began traveling with the boy for days at a time, often without providing advance notice, according to people familiar with his actions.
Ms. Boucher reconciled with Mr. Musk, only to get another unpleasant surprise. In August 2023, she learned that Ms. Zilis was expecting a third child with Mr. Musk via surrogacy and was pregnant with their fourth.
Ms. Boucher and Mr. Musk began a contentious custody battle, during which Mr. Musk kept X for months. They eventually signed the joint custody agreement that specified keeping their children out of the spotlight.
By mid-2023, unknown to either Ms. Boucher or Ms. Zilis, Mr. Musk had started a romantic relationship with Ms. St. Clair, the writer, who lives in New York City...
OK, there's more but that's enough to firmly establish Musk as a narcissistic loon (surprise!). Nothing says MAGA family values more than multiple divorces, adultery, and toxic behavior. The full article is worth a read if only to forever sear the true image of this p.o.s. oligarch in our consciousness.
That this drug- addled crank was given the power to take a chainsaw to the federal government, with resultant permanent damage to it and to countless lives here and around the world, is an unpardonable atrocity (much like everything else that has transpired since the election). There needs to be a reckoning.

Here's the Malignant Fascist's rambling, incensed reaction to the news that Wall Street analysts have dubbed him "T.A.C.O." (Trump Always Chickens Out) for his on- and- off illegal and destructive tariffs:
Now let's revel in this music video:
"... The Trump administration has launched a comprehensive attack on knowledge itself, a war against culture, history, and science. If this assault is successful, it will undermine Americans’ ability to comprehend the world around us. Like the inquisitors of old, who persecuted Galileo for daring to notice that the sun did not, in fact, revolve around the Earth, they believe that truth-seeking imperils their hold on power.
"By destroying knowledge, Trumpists seek to make the country more amenable to their political domination, and to prevent meaningful democratic checks on their behavior. Their victory, though, would do much more than that. It would annihilate some of the most effective systems for aggregating, accumulating, and applying human knowledge that have ever existed. Without those systems, America could find itself plunged into a new Dark Age." -- Adam Serwer, writing in The Atlantic, on the Malignant Fascist's furious assault on knowledge (and truth), as seen by his punitive and destructive actions toward higher education, government- supported science and technology, public health, cultural institutions, libraries (!), and more. The retreat into a New Dark Age is also mirrored on the world stage by the Malignant Fascist's bullying and abandonment of traditional allies, his cutting off of international aid, and his wrecking of America's trading alliances with his illegal tariffs (and the subsequent wrecking of our economy). At the same time, he admires and models the behavior of authoritarian regimes whose countries have already fallen into their own Dark Ages. It can't get much clearer. His determination to wreck America is so comprehensive and sustained that it lends more credence every day that the Malignant Fascist is, wittingly or unwittingly, Putin's puppet.
The U.S. Court of International Trade ruled yesterday that the out-of-control Malignant Fascist had exceeded his authority in levying tariffs on most nations. The ruling is a major blow to the MF's harmful and disruptive tariffs that are causing prices on goods imported from abroad increase, and our relationships with our long-time trading partners unravel. From Reuters:
"The Court of International Trade said the U.S. Constitution gives Congress exclusive authority to regulate commerce with other countries that is not overridden by the president's emergency powers to safeguard the U.S. economy.
'The court does not pass upon the wisdom or likely effectiveness of the President's use of tariffs as leverage,' a three-judge panel said in the decision to issue a permanent injunction on the blanket tariff orders issued by Trump since January. 'That use is impermissible not because it is unwise or ineffective, but because [federal law] does not allow it.'
Financial markets cheered the ruling. The U.S. dollar rallied following the court's order, surging against currencies such as the euro, yen and the Swiss franc in particular. Wall Street futures rose and equities across Asia also jumped.
The judges also ordered the Trump administration to issue new orders reflecting the permanent injunction within 10 days. The Trump administration minutes later filed a notice of appeal and questioned the authority of the court.
The court invalidated with immediate effect all of Trump's orders on tariffs since January that were rooted in the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), a law meant to address 'unusual and extraordinary' threats during a national emergency.
The court was not asked to address some industry-specific tariffs Trump has issued on automobiles, steel and aluminum, using a different statute." (our emphasis)
The MF's use of the emergency act was a ridiculous stretch, since the U.S. economy has been number one in the world for years and since he was handed a growing economy by his predecessor. Despite his boastful claims that nations were lining up to negotiate with him, the only "deal" he achieved was with the UK, which has a trade deficit with the U.S. The European Union, for example, is pushing back rather than bowing to the MF's actions.
Nevertheless, the MF will waste time in appealing the ruling, and when he loses, it would surprise no one if he ignored the courts.
UPDATE: Today a second Federal court ruled against the Malignant Fascist's illegal tariffs, strengthening the case against them for the higher courts that will hear his appeals.
UPDATE II: A Federal appeals court has now temporarily paused the actions of the two lower courts, allowing the tariffs to remain in place while motions papers are considered. Heading for SCOTUS.
