During his trip to Asia this week, Donald Trump decided that he wanted to further humiliate the entire United States by doing a horrific, and possibly even racist, impression of the Prime Minister of India. As bad as this was on an international stage, what might be even worse is that the mentally declining president didn't make an iota of sense du…

With SNAP benefits set to run dry this coming weekend, half of the states in this country (25) have joined in a lawsuit against the Trump administration for refusing to use the contingency fund for SNAP to prevent benefits from expiring and residents from going hungry.

In the past three months we have been inundated with reports of ICE agents deploying chemical weapons in situations that didn't even come close to calling for it. Police officers have been tear gassed, protesters have been gassed, and a school was forced to shut down permanently due to the amount of tear gas deployed down the street from it. But th…

Donald Trump had a complete meltdown during his visit to Asia after learning that everyone back home hates him.

An official in the Trump administration who rose to prominence by challenging the 2020 election results has suggested a sinister plan to steal next year's midterm elections for Republicans.

Not all forms of dementia are genetic, but there are enough that are that every member of the Trump family should be concerned.

Donald Trump is demanding that the DOJ pay him $230 million for the indictments that he suffered last year and the criminal trials that never ended up happening. This demand will be decided by the very people that depend on Trump for a job, and there's little doubt that they will give in to his demand. This may be the straw that breaks the camel's …

On a flight back from Las Vegas, I found myself sitting next to a man that decided to watch Fox News on his monitor while also streaming conservative media on his phone. During this time, I couldn't help but pay attention to the parade of lies I saw on both screens, even without audio. It was obvious that this passenger was so far gone that he coul…

Last summer, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down one of the most dangerous rulings in modern American history — declaring that anything a president does as an “official act” is protected by presidential immunity, even if it’s illegal. That means Trump — or any future president — could commit crimes while in office and never face accountability. Unde…

According to a real YouTube comment from a self-identified MAGA supporter, basic grammar may be the latest casualty of the MAGA movement.

Following the immigration raid of a South Korean Hyundai plant in Georgia last month, South Korea is now warning the world that America is not a safe place to send your workers.

Members of the committee that determine the winners of the Nobel Peace Prize are reportedly having a good laugh at Donald Trump's expense.

But the Committee is …

A clearly mentally disturbed Donald Trump got on Truth Social on Wednesday morning and demanded that Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson be put in prison.

Donald Trump suffered another "Senior moment" over the weekend when he shared an AI generated video of HIMSELF announcing that he was giving all Americans access to something called a "Med Bed," which is a magical creation that can cure all illnesses and even regrow missing limbs in a matter of hours.
