Shutdown crisis, Trump's cruelty and cuts to healthcare elevated, jobs situation grim, inflation. Can Trump succeed

in his dictatorship ambitions if public support drops to the low thirties? If polls at some point show he has lost the respect and confidence of two thirds of the country, will Republican lawmakers start infighting and the whole Trump coup implode?

America has become too dangerous for British singer, Adele, to perform at the Superbowl next year.

The Easy on Me hitmaker has seemingly made the decision in the light of recent events to prioritise her safety, as an insider told RadarOnline, “She is petrified after what happened to Kirk and is living like a hermit in Los Angeles, convinced stadium-scale performances put her life in danger.”

The sports event will take place on 8 February, 2026 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and the Set Fire to the Rain singer’s hiatus will not have ended by then.

This is not the first time Adele has refused an offer from the NFL, but she made the same decision back in 2026, when she said the show was “not about music.”

I wholeheartedly agree with Donald Trump

After Trump's disgraceful speech at the UN, he sent out a social media post airing his grievances about the escalator, the teleprompter, and the sound system not working properly.

The post started by stating, "A REAL DISGRACE took place at the United Nations yesterday."

Yes, I agree with Donald Trump. A REAL DISGRACE did happen. It happened in the form of an idiot boasting about how he is always right, displaying his bigotry and ignorance, and telling the leaders of other nations theit "countries are going to hell,"

Demented Trump Brags About (Incorrect) Poll Numbers in Embarrassing U.N. Speech

President Trump stood before a room full of the most esteemed leaders in the world on Tuesday and decided to tout his (incorrect) poll numbers and plug his merch.

“The American public agrees … I was very proud to see this morning I have the highest poll numbers I ever had,” Trump said, in the midst of a meandering, hour-long speech that attacked climate change, immigrants, and more. “Part of it is because of what we’ve done on the border. I guess the other part is what we’ve done on the economy.”

SNAP

“I’m really good at predicting things, ya know? They actually said during the campaign that a hat, the bestselling hat: ‘Trump Was Right About Everything’—and I don’t say that in a braggadocious way,” he said, referring to the hats he often gleefully displays in gift shops and online. “But it’s true. I’ve been right about everything. Everything. And I’m telling you that if you don’t get away from the green energy scam, your country is going to fail.”

Stephen Miller furious rant blaming the left, mirrors Joseph Goebbels. Don't expect mainstream media to report this.


White House deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller’s speech at a Turning Point USA event for the murdered campaigner bore similarities with the words of Joseph Goebbels at an election rally in 1932, according to observers.

SNIP

Paying tribute to Kirk’s widow Erika, Miller said: “The day that Charlie died, the angels wept, but those tears had been turned into fire in our hearts. And that fire burns with a righteous fury that our enemies cannot comprehend or understand. But I see Erika and her strength and her courage.

“I am reminded of a famous expression: The storm whispers to the warrior that you cannot withstand my strength and the warrior whispers back: ‘I am the storm.’

"Erica is the storm. We are the storm. And our enemies cannot comprehend our strength, our determination, our resolve, our passion.”

Commentators on social media said this bore a resemblance to Goebbels's speech in Berlin, delivered the year before the Nazis came to power in Germany.

In that speech, Goebbels – who entitled the piece “The Storm is Coming” – said: “We think no longer in terms of class. We are not workers or middle class. We are not first of all Protestants or Catholics. We do not ask about ancestry or class. Together we share the words of the poet: ‘People, rise up, and storm, break loose!’”

Trump is clearly mentally unstable. What would will happen if his own party tells him he can't be president after

January 2029? Would he be so mad that he would launch some nukes?

Who next to be destroyed by the fascists? CNN? NYT? Washington Post? YouTubers? Democratic Underground?

They won't stop until all criticism has been wiped out.
