Donald Trump...The 25th Amendment...When?

Everyone was caught off guard, even his MAGA maggots, when Donald Trump "posted an AI-generated image of himself escorting a shackled alien alongside Secret Service agents." The Oval Office lunatic has been mesmerizing over secret UFO files accusing Biden's administration of a coverup. They certainly may be out there but this kind of insanity means just that, T-rump is unfit for holding the office he does. There are many morons out there who believe every word this man says, without the brains to know what to do with it.

Gavin Newson posted this...

“The President of the United States just posted this. Do you think he’s lost it?”

If you do , you are in a group of "major figures" who have...

"Called to Invoke 25th Amendment to Remove Donald Trump From Office."

The list starts with  Former GOP Representative Adam Kinzinger, who remarked...

"This is absolutely insane and 25th amendment grounds in and of itself."

This coming from a former Republican who declined to run for reelection from the U.S. House because of the GOP's reaction to the investigation into the 2021 Capitol rioting. And just as bad, one of Trump's former staunch allies, Alex Jones, has increasingly turned on him asking...

"How do we 25th Amendment his a--?"

This guy spent a narrow amount of time working for Donald Trump but some of his insights since he turned against him have been interesting. Anthony Scaramucci shared...

"It was at this point that our Founders thought the best thing to do would be to remove a mad man who has the executive office. It became more formalized with the 25th amendment, but more people now should be calling for this man's removal."

Connecticut Sen, Chris Murphy, perhaps an undiscovered candidate so far for the 2028

Democratic presidency, says he agrees with the others on the 25th...

"No president in control of his senses would publicly promise to eradicate an entire civilization. Trump seems to be taking us on a path to mass war crimes. That's a path we cannot accept."

Murphy is the one who came out strong for gun control after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, CT. killing 26 people, including 20 children.

Democrat Representative Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, introduced a bill...

to create a "Commission on Presidential Capacity" under Section 4 of the 25th Amendment. It would determine whether the president is no longer fit to serve in office."

Raskin was also dismayed over the fact that no Republicans were in the least interested in the impeachment of Donald Trump.

Even former Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene reacted after Trump's threat to annihilate Iran, referring to him as  "evil and madness." She added...

"25TH AMENDMENT!!! Not a single bomb has dropped on America. We cannot kill an entire civilization,"

JB Pritzker, a possible Democrat contender in 2028, joined more than 50 House Democrats and conservative pundits, saying, "the 25th Amendment "must be invoked. "Then...

"This is not foreign policy, it's a deranged mad man threatening to wipe out an entire country,"

Then this, Ty Cobb, Trump's former White House counsel said the 25th Amendment should be looked into...

"Given the fact that the Cabinet will not invoke the 25th Amendment for a man who is clearly insane — this war highlights that and these screeds that come out nightly, you know, at 2 a.m. or 4 a.m., or whatever time Trump decides to vent without oversight — it highlights the level of his insanity and depravity,"

There are more prominent figures in this article who are worth reading, but there is so much more covering this issue that also demands attention. Back to MTG; here is someone who...

"resigned from the U.S. House of Representatives in January 2026 due to a severe, public falling-out with President Donald Trump and frustration with Republican congressional leadership."

Here's the Atlanta Black Star headline.. ‘Remove Him Now!’: Donald Trump Posted a Photo So Insane That Even MAGA Couldn’t Find a Way to Defend It." Here's a comment from one of the MAGA maggots, somewhat questionable but typical...

“President Trump just posted this still on Truth Social. Trump walking alongside a handcuffed alien at a military base, escorted by agents and military personnel. He always knows how to keep it interesting. What do you think he’s signaling?”

AlterNet's headline, "Betrayal: This surprising group is gearing up to crush Trump and his broken promises," reveals an interesting group of potential voters who have had it with Donald Trump, and will come out of the closet en masse to vote for Democrats. Here's the scenario...

"As passionate as some people may feel about elections, politics and Trump it is “the least politically engaged Americans” that are deciding American elections. It may sounds like sacrilege, but it’s true," said polling analyst G. Elliot Morris.

There's more...

"In 2024, according to Pew, non-voters leaned toward Trump over Harris by four

 

percentage points, 44 percent to 40 percent. But today, the Democratic margin among non-voters is a whopping +20 points — a 24-point shift since 2024."

And finally, here's a headline that will knock your socks off: "Iran Plans $58 Million Bounty For 'Whoever Sends Trump, Netanyahu To Hell.'" Here's the status...

"Tehran: Iran is reportedly discussing placing a $58 million bounty on US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Ebrahim Azizi, the Chairman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the Iranian Parliament, has announced that the body was preparing a bill titled "Counter-Action by the Military and Security Forces of the Islamic Republic" that would formalise payment of 50 million euros (approximately $58.23 million) to any individual or entity who would assassinate the United States and Israeli leaders"

Under Donald Trump, violence has become the order of the day. The White House maniac has pushed this country so far as to put a bounty on his head. He started an unnecessary war and assassinated their leader. In the U.S. Congress the Democrats have pushed for a War Powers Resolutions with some Republicans on board. 

And, between 58% and 64% of the American public is against the U.S. war with Iran, according to a PBS News/NPR/Marist Poll, plus a New York Times/Sienna Poll find that 60% to 64% of Americans disapprove of the war and the current administration's handling of the conflict.

If this country continues to condone this kind of violence, we might as well throw in the towel.

Donald Trump v. Xi Jinping...another failure...what's next after the mockery?

Donald Trump with Xi Jinping
looking confident but beaten

CNN's  Erin Burnett comes on strong with her "stunned" reaction due to uninhibited mockery China has been hurling at Trump during his visit. There is a report that Xi did not meet him at the airport, instead...

"Trump was greeted by US Ambassador to China David Perdue; Xi’s vice president, Han Zheng; China’s Ambassador to Washington Xie Feng; and Executive Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Ma Zhaoxu.”

Xi did send a gang to welcome T-rump but did not do the honorable thing of appearing himself to greet Trump. This apparently really pissed off MAGA, resulting in a meltdown over the insult. What a way to start a summit with the second strongest country in the world, showing disrespect.' Erin Burnett said that even as Trump was scheduled to meet with Xi that evening, the meeting was being mocked across China, adding...

"Beijing's strict censors are letting the ridicule go viral, which is a statement in and of itself."

There's more,,,

"America has lost its swagger. They're nothing but a paper tiger," one of those viral posts read. "The U.S. economy is in bad shape. Trump has been blustering Iran for so long."

It is beyond me how the Republican Congress, dumb as they are, could allow Dufus Rump to try and negotiate with a country so important as China. With the way Chinese manufacturers are taking over the electric car business, they could literally demolish the EV trade in the United States. And, China has nearly erased the overall performance gap in artificial intelligence chips. Currently, Trump thinks the U.S. is substantially ahead in AI but has registered concern over the competition in electric cars.

Here's another take on Trump's China visit from his niece, Mary Trump...

“Xi couldn't be bothered to meet Donald at the airport because he understands as well as Donald does that humiliating your underlings is a great way to keep them in check.”

So, the Oval Office lunatic blundered through an orchestrated greeting designed to show that Xi was in complete control with Trump later adding his adoration for the Chinese leader while Xi maintained a firm response. Donald Trump loves dictators. Other than Xi Jinping, the is Kim in North Korea, Putin in Russia and Erdogan from Turkey. Trump obviously had a thing for Adolph Hitler, admitting he had a copy of Mein Kampf given to him by a friend that he read regularly. 

Donald Trump is being laughed at all over the world, as well as in his own country, the U.S. Republicans in Congress know this but justify what's happening by the power they hold and are afraid of losing this if they defy the White House maniac. Remember in 2007, when Mitch McConnell, then head of the Senate. exclaimed that "The Senate has no claim on greatness unless its power is put to great ends." The GOP has used this ideology since then to create a power base that has brough America to the point of disaster.

Chinese media mocks Donald Trumo

But more about the laughter and mockery by the Chinese media, both during and even before Trump's visit with Xi...

"Trump is about to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping tonight, a high-stakes meeting which is being mocked across China. Beijing's strict censors are letting the ridicule go viral, which is a statement in and of itself."

Here are some comments from the people of China...

"They will look up to us from now on," read a post that Burnett shared. "Trump came to China! We won the tariff war! 

"Trump, you're welcome to visit China and learn from us," the mockery continued.

"The U.S. is no longer a country that we look up to. We can now compete with them with confidence and strength," a Chinese social media user wrote."

Did you hear this kind of rhetoric when Joe Biden was President, Or Barack Obama, or even going back to Bill Clinton? First of all, neither of the three admired dictators, as does Donald Trump, and in each of those three Democratic administrations, they were strong against the Chinese government, yet, also open to working with the country. There's a big difference between this and fawning over adversaries like North Korea's Kim, Russia's Putin, and now China's Xi.

And, there are other negative ramifications to Trump's China trip than mockery and being ridiculed. Donald Trump, who is supposed to be the leader of the free world, presents the weakness of a poor slob coming to Xi Jinping with his hat in his hand. This, after military experts have just told Trump he "is leaving US dangerously vulnerable." Trump was

U.S. vulnerable after depleting arms
in Iran War

warned...

"Before U.S. President Donald Trump launched the war against Iran in late February, military experts were warning his administration that taking on the Iranian regime would be a very heavy lift — as Iran is a larger country than Iraq, where a war proved to be much more complicated than George W. Bush Administration officials said it would."

And then...

"The Iran war has depleted America's weapons stockpile, leaving Donald Trump vulnerable and constraining his ability to resume hostilities, military analysts say. The majority of Iran's missiles and launchers, meanwhile, are believed to remain intact."

Not only has Trump left us vulnerable against Iran, he has put us in the position of not being able to defend ourselves against China--should they decide our weakness prompts a move--and actually the entire world. Think of this when you vote in November. 

 

Donald Trump's alter ego is VIOLENCE

Gunman opens fire at White House
Correspondents dinner 2026

Robert Reich is back in the spotlight with his right-on evaluation of the sure connection between Donald Trump and violence. He starts his piece in AlterNet by describing past White Hose Correspondents dinners as a somewhat mutual admiration event where the two sides "basked in each other’s celebrity." That was then, this is now. Reich has an amazing way with words when it comes to Trump and this is how he described the melee at the Washington Hilton Hotel...

"Last night’s [April 25] ended abruptly with gunshots, Secret Service officers screaming at attendees to “get down, Trump and other officials being rapidly ushered out of the ballroom, plates crashing and chairs falling, and general pandemonium.

"Last night, the celebrities became normal people feeling panic and fear."

Reich is using the White House Correspondents dinner as an illustration of the difference in violence between events like this--in Washington or elsewhere--after Donald Trup entered the White House and before. From the beginning, T-rump has pushed his minions to the edge when it comes to violence, letting them do their worst, as an example in the Capitol riots...

Donald Trump did not act to stop the Capitol riot for 187 minutes on January 6, 2021, watching the attack on television from the White House dining room while ignoring pleas from aides, family, and lawmakers to intervene. During this time, he made no calls to law enforcement or national security staff.

As Dufus Rump sat and gloated over the melee he had created, those around him, even some close aides and family, couldn't believe what they were experiencing. It was so obvious they were watching a crowd out of control, and the worst could no doubt happen. It did...

Within 36 hours, five people died: one was shot by the Capitol Police, another died of a drug overdose, and three died of natural causes, including a police officer who died of a stroke a day after being assaulted by rioters and collapsing at the Capitol. Many people were injured, including 174 police officers.

Knowingly having created the chaos, while championing on those in the riot zone, you

Jan. 6, 2021

would expect no remorse from the individual responsible. In the case of Donald Trump that is heightened significantly to coincide with his narcissism. knowing full well he is sitting there in elation over what he has done. Then he added this to the lawlessness he had already caused. According to ABC News, he said he regretted not marching with supporters in the Capitol riot...

"Former US president Donald Trump says he regrets not marching to the US Capitol with his supporters who stormed the building on January 6, 2021.

"In an interview with the Washington Post, he defends not speaking out for hours during the attack, which saw five people die as a result of the riot."

Back to the White House Correspondents dinner, which was the first for Trump, Robert Reich says that he came prepared to give the media pure hell in his remarks. But, before he could, the gunman struck with more of the ongoing accepted Trump violence...

"There is a close relationship between Trump and violence — not just the attempts on his life but also the violence he’s unleashed on the world, the violence his ICE and Border Patrol agents have caused inside America, the violence he has incited among his followers. (A few of last night’s attendees were in Congress on January 6, 2021 when Trump’s thugs attacked the U.S. Capitol.)"

Reich adds...

"We are witnessing what happens to a person who is consumed with the need to dominate but cannot."

Trump and violence are synonymous

And therein lies the answer to Rufus Rump's increased erratic behavior that could lead to more attempts to regain control. Remember, this maniac holds the sole authority to authorize the use of U.S. nuclear weapons; it's only a matter of how fast he can get his finger on the button. Of late, Trump has mentioned Iran's nuclear facilities along with the fact that if they don't do what he wants, he would blast the country out of this world. This man's contempt for human life seems to compete with his enormous narcissism.

Perspective on Terrorism lends insight to a broad comprehension of Donald Trump's mindset on a number of issues...

"During Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy and presidency political discourse in the United States became more hateful and divisive. Threats and actual violence against groups and individuals singled out and demonized by Trump increased. The targets of his verbal attacks were most of all racial, ethnic, and religious minorities, the news media collectively and individual journalists, and well-known politicians, mostly Democrats." 

PT also acknowledges an increase in bullying against minorities in schools. Bullying, of course, has been around for a while, but it certainly didn't need encouragement. 

Political violence has occurred throughout American history—from the assassinations of four presidents to civil unrest and terrorist attacks. Experts report that incidents have increased significantly since 2016, reaching levels not seen since the 1970s. This, according to AI.

And what happened in 2016? Oh, that's right, Donald Trump was elected president of the United States. Enough said!

Donald Trump's SCOTUS must go...

SCOTUS' recent 6-3 decision in Louisiana v. Callais basically takes away the voting rights of minorities, a block of voters traditionally voting for Democrats. It was, of course, down party lines, the kind of results we have seen recently from this gang of Trump worshippers. The six conservative justices have finally completely scuttled their ethics to attempt to pave the way for Republicans to win in 2026 and 2028. Prominent legal scholar Richard Hasen, a law professor at UCLA, said...

"the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision in Louisiana v. Callais 'will go down in history as one of the most pernicious and damaging Supreme Court decisions of the last century.' The case gutted 'what remained" of the Voting Rights Act's protections for voters of color.' Hasen said the decision will not only increase racial gerrymandering, but also strip millions of voters of 'rudimentary fair representation' at all levels of government."

Hasen says you can blame it on Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito...

"who have shown persistent resistance to the idea of the United States as a multiracial democracy, and a brazen willingness to reject Congress’s judgment that fair representation for minority voters sometimes requires race-conscious legislation," Hasen wrote. "It gives the green light to further partisan gerrymandering. It protects Alito’s core constituency: aggrieved white Republican voters. It’s a disaster for American democracy."

In other words, they are paving the way for a future America where people of color have no voting rights. No, I'm wrong, not being able to vote means basically not having any rights at all. And this is just what the Republican Party wants. Hansen isn't finished. In an AlterNet article, he calls Samuel Alito a "coward" ...

"who is either lying to himself or the American public, after authoring what has been called the 'earthquake' decision in Louisiana v. Callais, which sharply erodes the Voting Rights Act."

Here's more on Alito...

Alito tells Roberts, 'We got 'em this time'

"Alito’s 'disastrous' majority opinion in Callais 'essentially gutted what remains of the Voting Rights Act,' but he 'claims to have done no such thing. The question is 'why,' Hasen posits.

Hasen charges that Justice Alito was too 'afraid" to share his actual opinion, and so he found ways to “get away with overturning Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act through technical minutiae rather than through a direct hit.”

"Section 2, passed in 1965, is the provision of the Voting Rights Act that protects minority voters from discriminatory voting laws and maps."

Hansen made this welcomed statement last Wednesday...

"that the Supreme Court just made reforming the institution an 'unavoidable' part of future political administrations."

BAM! I have been saying this since Donald Trump entered his second term and as a jaundiced SCOTUS began to throw everything Trump's way. The six conservatives on the high court are just as maniacal as dufus rump has become with both deteriorating at an astonishing rate of speed. 

These, folks, are the culprits

This decision is especially frightening for my state of Arizona with approximately 360,000 to over 480,000 Black residents, representing roughly 4.4% to 6.3% of the state's total population. And, a substantial and growing Hispanic population, estimated at over 2.3 million, constituting roughly 31% to 32% of the state's total population. Arizona ranks among the top states nationally for its share of Latino residents. The AZMirror says...

“They’ll [Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission, or IRC] have more free rein to draw lines, regardless of the impact on racial minority groups’ opportunity to elect representatives of their own choice,” said Bo Dul, a former state election official and lawyer who specializes in election and political litigation at Coppersmith Brockelman in Phoenix.

Mother Jones reported, "The Roberts Court Shows Its True Partisan Colors," in an attempt to make "you think that its latest gerrymandering decision is a mere tweak to the legal rules governing political map drawing." But MJ adds, something that flies in the face of the 15th Amendment, which specifies "prohibition against racial discrimination in voting." And Mother Jones warns, Don’t be fooled...

"This is a counter-revolution. Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act requires that people of color have an equal opportunity to elect representatives of their choice. Wednesday’s decision effectively strikes down Section 2—at least what this Supreme Court had left of it—and takes the country back to the dark days when Black and brown voters in many states cast meaningless ballots, having been diluted and gerrymandered into powerlessness. In the decades since the Voting Rights Act, southern states have sent Black representatives to Congress, state legislatures, and local political bodies because this seminal civil rights law demanded that minority voters have an equal voice in the political process. Congress has repeatedly defended and continued these protections. On Wednesday, a court majority watered them right down to nothing.

"Nothing" is what the minorities get, and if the Republicans have their way this ideology will translate into anything the left wants or deserves. Democrats need to begin building their strength now for 2026 and 2028 and prepare to radically redesign SCOTUS.
