Truckers for Trump are refusing to drive to New York City after $350m fraud ruling

As a trucker who is part of the Trump supporting community, it’s disheartening to see the recent news about truckers refusing to drive to New York City after a $350 million fraud ruling. The decision to boycott deliveries to the city in response to this ruling is certainly a bold move, but is it the right one?

While it’s understandable that individuals may feel strongly about their political beliefs, should this really impact their ability to do their job? Trucking is a profession that requires reliability and efficiency, and refusing to transport goods to a major city like New York because of a court ruling seems counterproductive.… Continue reading

Trump tells supporters his $355 million fraud fine is election interference

It’s truly amazing how Trump manages to twist every event, every situation, into a narrative of election interference. From his fraudulent fines to the weather outside, everything seems to be a ploy against him running for office again. It’s almost comical how his supporters blindly follow along, convinced that he is the victim in every scenario. I find it both baffling and concerning that he can manipulate the facts so easily in front of the world, with the US media seemingly giving him a pass for his outlandish claims.

The fact that Trump can stand in front of a crowd and declare that his fraud fines are election interference, without any regard for the reality of his actions, is a testament to his ability to play the victim card whenever convenient.… Continue reading

Tucker Carlson Defends Putin, Says ‘Leadership Requires Killing’ | Video

The recent remarks made by Tucker Carlson defending Vladimir Putin and stating that ‘leadership requires killing’ have left many feeling disgusted, angry, and utterly baffled. As I watched the video in which Carlson made these shocking statements, I couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of disappointment and disbelief. How is it possible for someone to defend a ruthless dictator like Putin, who has committed countless human rights violations and caused so much suffering?

It is alarming to see someone with such a large platform using their influence to praise a leader who has a track record of silencing dissent, censoring the media, and suppressing freedom of speech.… Continue reading

GOP fears besieged Trump will now drain RNC fund to pay his own legal bills

The GOP fears that besieged Trump will now drain the RNC fund to pay his own legal bills. And honestly, can we really blame them? Trump has not exactly been known for his financial responsibility or ethics. The party is right to be concerned about Trump using their funds for his personal legal battles, especially considering the lackluster down-ballot results they have been experiencing.

It’s no secret that Trump has been bleeding the RNC coffers dry as much as they will allow him to. With his exorbitant legal fees and the hefty sums needed for his civil cases, it’s clear that the party is at risk of being financially gutted by their own golden goose.… Continue reading

Conservative TV host defends Christian nationalism: ‘If Hitler could use nationalism to do bad things, imagine what a good guy could do’

It’s a chilling statement to hear a conservative TV host defend Christian nationalism with the argument, ‘If Hitler could use nationalism to do bad things, imagine what a good guy could do’. The mere mention of Hitler in any context elicits a sense of dread, invoking memories of unspeakable atrocities committed in the name of nationalism. The assertion that a ‘good guy’ could somehow leverage nationalism for positive ends is not only misguided but dangerously naive.

Hitler, much like many other dictators throughout history, believed he was the hero of his own narrative. Nobody perceives themselves as the villain; they always see themselves as righteous and just.… Continue reading

Elon Musk demands users stop ‘deadnaming’ Twitter after Stephen King trolls the billionaire

Elon Musk demands users stop ‘deadnaming’ Twitter after Stephen King trolls the billionaire

Elon Musk, the enigmatic billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, is once again making waves on social media. This time, he is demanding that users stop referring to Twitter as ‘Twitter’ and instead use the name ‘X’. Musk’s decree comes after acclaimed author Stephen King trolled the billionaire by referring to the social media platform as its original name.

The irony of Musk’s demand is not lost on many observers. Here we have a man who has built his reputation on pushing boundaries and disrupting industries, now seemingly unable to handle a simple jest from a fellow public figure.… Continue reading

Arizona GOP introduces resolution to declare Trump 2024 winner regardless of the vote.

The recent news about the Arizona GOP introducing a resolution to declare Trump the winner of the 2024 election, regardless of the vote, is truly alarming. It’s shocking to see a political party in the United States resort to such undemocratic tactics. This is the kind of behavior we would expect from a third world country, where elections are manipulated and controlled by those in power.

It’s even more disheartening when we consider that these are the same individuals who spent so much time and money trying to prove fraud in the 2020 election, without any substantial evidence to support their claims.… Continue reading

Christian Super Bowl Commercial Outrages Conservatives

Christian Super Bowl Commercial Outrages Conservatives

As I sit here reflecting on the recent Christian Super Bowl commercial that seems to have caused outrage among conservatives, I can’t help but be entertained by the sheer absurdity of it all. The ad, created by the “He Gets Us” campaign, was meant to spread a message of love and acceptance. However, it seems that conservatives have taken offense to this idea, causing them to lash out with hateful and bigoted comments.

It’s quite ironic, really. The very people who claim to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ are the ones who seem to be the most hateful and intolerant.… Continue reading

Get Used to It: Biden Isn’t Going Anywhere. The GOP fantasy crowd is so accustomed to conspiracy theories that they’re betting the Democrats will switch candidates at the last minute. Have they actually paid attention to politics?

Get Used to It: Biden Isn’t Going Anywhere

As we approach the upcoming U.S. Presidential election, the GOP fantasy crowd seems to be consumed by conspiracy theories. They believe that the Democrats will switch candidates at the last minute, with Biden stepping down and Michelle Obama taking his place. But let’s take a step back and ask ourselves a simple question: have these conspiracy theorists actually paid attention to politics?

The truth is, Biden is here to stay. The idea that Michelle Obama, who has never expressed interest in running for public office, would suddenly decide to enter the race and replace Biden is nothing more than Republican propaganda.… Continue reading

Nearly 15% of Americans deny climate change is real. Researchers saw a strong connection between climate denialism and low COVID-19 vaccination rates, suggesting a broad skepticism of science

Reflecting on the topic of climate change denial and its connection to low COVID-19 vaccination rates, I’m struck by the unfortunate reality that nearly 15% of Americans still deny the existence of climate change. This statistic, though seemingly low compared to the majority who do acknowledge climate change, is still cause for concern. It shows that a significant portion of the population is unwilling to accept a scientifically proven phenomenon that poses grave risks to our planet and our future.

The connection between climate denialism and low vaccination rates is troubling, suggesting a broader skepticism of science within this group of individuals.… Continue reading
