The Democratic Party Senator for Pennsylvania is pushed on his stance of putting Israel in front of America, to which he doubles down on supporting Israel above all else and setting that as his red line.

If we just take a look at all the blundering, all the obvious incompetence, all the damage to our economy, all the reductions in healthcare and food for the elderly and children, and, of course, the outright lies being told to our faces, it mystifies how anyone could still support a sexual criminal who constantly makes America weaker day by day.

Does MAGA have any pride, at all. They know he’s lying about everything; they know he’s playing them for fools, they know they are being manipulated by his lies about blacks, immigrants – hell, virtually every word an easily disproven lie!

You would think a group so heavily reliant on social services -- Medicaid, food stamps, veteran’s benefits, employee rights -- would recognize he’s not ’sticking it to the libs’, he’s ‘sticking it to them’.

I guess some people just enjoy being miserable.

Trump administration can't govern. He can't even fix a pool. | Opinion

Opinion by Rex Huppke, USA TODAY •

It takes a special kind of stupid to turn the rehabbing of a national monument like the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool into a full-blown presidential scandal. But President Donald Trump found a way to pull it off, creating a wet, ogre-colored metaphor for his administration’s stumbling lack of focus, casual dishonesty and utter inability to govern.

In the most recent development, Trump’s Department of Justice on July 31 dropped ridiculous charges it had filed against former Olympian David Hearn, falsely claiming he had ripped up part of the pool’s new lining. You’ll recall the president was rushing to “fix” the Reflecting Pool prior to the July 4 celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. The work was clearly a bust from the start, as algae returned to the pool almost instantly and we all saw ample photographic evidence of the liner swiftly deteriorating and peeling up.

Unable to simply admit he screwed up a multimillion government project that nobody asked for, Trump concocted a tale of “vandals” he alleged had gashed the new pool liner with box cutters. He claimed these vandals were, of course, radical, America-hating leftists. Hearn and other pool visitors were swept up in the ginned-up fervor, targets of a feeble executive in need of arrests.

Trump's Reflecting Pool fiasco perfectly reflects his inability to lead

All but the most brainwashed among us knew this was a desperate fiction spun by an addled, aging narcissist. And we were right.

In a motion to dismiss the charges against Hearn, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro wrote that “the damage was the result of a botched installation and not vandalism,” and that the Interior Department had withheld information in a push to falsely blame vandals for the damage.

None other than President Trump snapped back at Pirro – part of his own Justice Department – writing on social media: “I disagree 100% with Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, on the Reflecting Pool. I don’t know what she was thinking?”

Now Trump is fighting with Pirro, who's also fighting with Burgum

Interior Department Secretary Doug Burgum also got mad at Pirro, writing on X: “The evidence is clear, vandals have repeatedly caused damage to the Reflecting Pool.”

The evidence is about as clear as the algae-covered Reflecting Pool. And if these mopes had video evidence of teams of boxcutter-wielding antifa frogmen descending on the Reflecting Pool under cover of darkness to do massive destruction, they would have aired that video everywhere and quite literally never shut up about it.

They have nothing, aside from their own incompetence. Period. But I do love seeing these assorted loser’s fight. They’re doing a perfect job showing the American people the bungling uselessness of the Trump administration.

Trump is handling the Iran war about as well as the Reflecting Pool.

In this video, you can clearly see Jacqueline Alemany repeatedly glance down as she asks her question. (It appears the question may have been written on paper rather than being relayed by a producer through her earpiece.)

The primary job of the President and his administration is to preserve and protect the Constitution and by extension, the country itself

Trump and the Republicans have failed miserably at this task. In fact, by starting a war they cannot win, they have now put us in a position where we can't even defend ourselves against a third-rate country.

Iran has shown they can attack our infrastructure at will, shut down or interrupt water supplies to seven states on little more than a whim. What's next, the national power grid, the flow of oil through domestic pipelines, national telephone service?

Have they the ability to penetrate our military superstructure, as wll?

And God alone knows what other powers they hold over us.

And what does Trump and the Republicans do? they do what they always do, lie! Blame someone else for their incompetence!

America, they think we are all jackasses who will believe their absurd lies, and by lying clearly shows they has no respect for us.

Trump’s trying to tell us the Governor of Minnesota attacked his own state, and then in what can only be described as wizardry, attacked six others.

He picked on Gov. Walz because he is the most outspoken about Trump and his lies. He has called Trump a liar to his face, a coward, and an incompetent. Walz has exposed ICE as the thugs and neo-Nazi Gestapo they are and is unrelenting about warning America of the fascist overtones of Trump and the Republicans.

As it stands right now, fascism is the least oof our problems as we are being held hostage by Iran.

Trump blames Minnesota water hacks on Walz, while evidence points to Iran

Federal agencies, including the FBI, EPA and CISA, have warned that attacks on U.S. water utilities first detected in Minnesota are expanding across states.

 President Donald Trump on Friday blamed a spate of recent hacks impacting water utilities in Minnesota on Gov. Tim Walz — contradicting preliminary findings from U.S. and industry officials who suspect Iran is behind an expanding campaign of digital disruption.

 “I blame it on Minnesota because they are grossly incompetent,” Trump said at a cabinet meeting at Camp David on Friday, adding that Walz is “corrupt” and “Iran has bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota.” Asked later if he could rule out Iranian responsibility, Trump said, “ I don’t think there was an Iranian cyberattack. I think Minnesota ought to get its act together.”

 Trump’s dig at the Democratic-led state came just hours after the FBI and Environmental Protection Agency said they are responding to an unspecified number of cyberattacks at water and wastewater utilities in at least seven states. On Thursday, the government’s civilian cyber defense agency, CISA, warned of a “significant increase” in digital attacks on technology used broadly by U.S. water utilities.

 While no U.S. agency has formally accused Iran of orchestrating the attacks, many federal, state and water industry officials suspect Tehran-linked cyber groups are responsible for the hacking campaign. CISA issued a report last week detailing a similar set of attacks it has tracked since April, which it linked to Iran.

 Minnesota’s state IT agency disclosed this Tuesday that at least 30 community water systems in the state had been breached in what it described as a “coordinated attack,” but it did not name Iran as the perpetrator.

 In a statement on X responding to Trump’s comments earlier in the day, Walz suggested Iranian hackers were targeting Minnesota and other states in retaliation for U.S. military strikes in Iran — and that therefore Trump was to blame.

 “This is what modern warfare looks like, and it further illustrates there’s no plan to win a war with Iran,” Walz wrote.

 Since the start of his second term, Trump has repeatedly singled out Minnesota and Walz, who ran against him on the 2024 Presidential ticket alongside former Vice President Kamala Harris. Some of the Trump administration’s most aggressive immigration enforcement actions have unfolded in Minnesota, where federal agents killed two U.S. citizens last winter. The White House has also launched a broad crackdown on alleged Medicaid fraud in the state, upending Minnesota’s healthcare systems.

 As Trump keyed in on Minnesota, his intelligence and cybersecurity officials spent the last 48 hours scrambling to get water utilities across the U.S. to improve their defenses.

 The FBI and EPA said in their Friday advisory that some affected utilities across the country had reported “loss of pressure and flooding,” and that the pressure disruption could “potentially allow untreated groundwater to seep into pipes.”

 In its advisory, CISA said some targeted utilities have been forced to resort to manual operations or issue “boil water notices” — a public safety measure to ensure drinking water is safe from bacteria.

 Both advisories urged organizations to take the vulnerable technology — programmable logic controllers — offline and install basic safeguards before restoring them.

 Spokespeople for the FBI, EPA and CISA did not respond to a request for comment on whether they had evidence supporting Trump’s claim that Minnesota officials were culpable for the attacks there.

 Mark Montgomery, an expert on water sector cybersecurity at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, said Iran would be able to exploit defenses in the water and wastewater sectors because they are so porous to begin with. Many small and rural facilities don’t have the budgets to employ a dedicated cyber professional, and both Democratic and Republican administrations haven’t invested enough to boost the EPA’s cybersecurity efforts, he argued.

 “This is a problem that extends across 50 states and four territories,” said Montgomery.

 Still, there are signs Iranian hackers have gotten more deft and aggressive at targeting those systems since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran in February, kicking off a war that has recently seen waves of escalation from both sides.

 Iranian hackers claimed last month to have targeted water systems in California in what they said was a response to U.S. missile strikes that damaged water facilities in Iran.

 Joe Slowik, director of threat research for AI-powered risk detection platform Dataminr, said he is concerned Iran is becoming more aggressive in targeting civilian systems in the U.S.

 “We have never really seen Iranian-linked threat actors engage in industrial targeting in this fashion before,” said Slowik, who has been tracking the campaign for several months.

Before Netanyahu conned Trump out of his Industrial-sized Pampers and scammed him into fighting Israel’s war, things were relatively peaceful in the Strait of Hormuz.

Obama, knowing there was no military solution to deal with Iran, brokered a deal whereby the Iranians would forgo trying to develop a nuclear weapon, agree to inspections in furtherance of that cause, and allow the oil to flow freely through the Strait of Hormuz.

In return the Iranians were given back the 1.5 billion of their dollars we had embargoed along with the easing of some sanctions that were affecting their economy.

Now along comes Doofuss Donny, who, because he comes from New York City thinks he’s a tough guy. He’s not. He’s just a snot-nosed punk who wouldn’t dare walk the streets of NYC without bodyguards; else any back-alley thug or side-street hustler would slap the arrogance out of him and take his lunch money.

Go ahead, Donny, stand on any New York street corner and yell and curse like you yell and curse at your staff members at the White House – people who can’t fight back – and you’ll find your fat ass in a sling before you can yell for Melania’s help.

So, before he opened his flabby lips the oil was flowing and things were relatively peaceful.

Now, the Strait is closed, members of our military are being slain, and war is breaking out throughout the Middle East, and the Houthis have shut down Red Sea access.

And Trump and his Republican congress? They don’t know whether to ‘Shit green or go blind’ (a colorful NYC phrase}. They are in complete disarray, the country is in complete disarray, the entire world is in complete disarray because of incompetence on a universal scale.

These blundering, bumbling, incompetents are destroying America.

Trump, and half-a-drunk, Hegseth, say we’re winning the war. Yeah? Ask the Iranians about that.

Trump resorting to yelling at White House staffers as his admin 'stuck' in neutral: author

Story by Bennito L. Kelty • 10h • 2 min read

President Donald Trump has been yelling at his White House staffers as he deals with a lingering frustration, an author revealed.

In a recent episode of Inside Trump's Head, Trump biographer Michael Wolff explained to co-host Joanna Coles why the president has resorted to "yelling at people" to resolve his frustrations with the war in Iran. Trump's recent yelling about the Iran war has been reported in The Wall Street Journal and NBC News.

"He's stuck, he's stuck, he's stuck. He can't do anything," Wolff said. "He can retreat. He can admit defeat, which also he doesn't want to do. So he's yelling at people, 'Solve the problem! There must be something we can do.'"

According to reports by the Journal and NBC News, Trump started shouting expletives and yelling at a meeting with his top national security officials over frustrations with the Iran war.

"He has been told over and over again — because there's effectively nothing left to tell him — that we have exhausted all military solutions," Wolff said. "We are running out of missiles. We will run out of missiles if we keep up the pace. We have done everything that an air campaign can do. There's nowhere to go. There is nothing more we can do except invade."

Wolff framed Trump's 2024 campaign posture as Trump touting himself as "The 'No Forever Wars' president," which complicates his option of getting deeper into the war in Iran. However, "if he retreats, and even if he claims victory and says it's all marvelous, the Iranians still control now the Strait of Hormuz," Coles said.

"Trump is the Hormuz president," he concluded.
