Trump’s Pressure Cooker Is Making Bad
Mayors Blink
Posted By: DW626, 8/27/2025 11:48:11 AM
Chicago’s mayor spent the weekend thundering about “democracy,” “fascism,” and the Constitution. Then he showed up on MSNBC and—under the hottest spotlight of his tenure—stumbled over the simplest question in public safety: would more cops on the street make Chicago safer? Joe Scarborough asked it five times. Brandon Johnson couldn’t say yes. He filibustered about housing, mental health, and youth jobs until he was forced to mutter that the police must be “fully supported.” Translation: with Trump threatening federal muscle, even the most progressive mayor knows he can’t keep sneering at cops.

One reason that many Republican voters took a shine to Donald Trump in 2016 was the way he showed no respect to the national chattering classes of the Democrat-media complex. George W. Bush was a kinder, gentler Republican -- and they compared him to Hitler. No matter which flavor of Republican was elected, the "objective" media savaged him.
We've reached the 20th anniversary of deadly Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf of Mexico, which killed an estimated 1,836 Americans. But misinformation landed first. NBC and MSNBC tremendously hyped Democrat Mayor Ray Nagin's "Today" show estimate of 10,000 dead in New Orleans.

Attorney General Pam Bondi is seeking to dismiss a $100 million lawsuit filed by the Proud Boys over the political persecution they suffered in the wake of the January 6th protests.
In a court submission on Monday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) asked for the lawsuit to be dismissed, stating that “the malicious prosecution claim lacks merit; and the United States is not liable for punitive damages.”
The filing undercuts the argument long supported by the Trump administration that those who were imprisoned following the January 6th attacks were the victims of political persecution.
The suit was filed in June by Enrique Tarrio, the former Proud Boys leader,
Where do pencils come from?

Congresswoman Judy Chu (D-Los Angeles), a 17-year veteran of Capitol Hill, recently posted a graphic on X blaming “Trump’s tariffs” for the rising cost of back-to-school supplies. A glance at her list reveals a more telling story: most of the items are pencils, pens, paper, and lunchboxes. Essentials. Yet, much of what American children need to write, organize, and eat comes from overseas.
Yes, pencils. Once staples of every classroom, most American pencils are now imported from China, Brazil, and Mexico. Domestic pencil production has largely disappeared. Take Dixon Pencils. Until the 1980s they used to make pencils in Jersey City, New Jersey.
President Trump was already scaring the hell out of the leftists, but they’re absolutely terrified now that he’s taking aim at their control of the institutions that manage our history; the skinsuit is coming off, and the castrated commie emperorhas been exposed as having no clothes. They hate America, and they hate our history, and they want to twist it into a garotte to strangle our patriotism. No thanks. Our history is our history, not theirs, and from here on in, we’re going to tell our story, not them.
So, this obviously means that Trump loves slavery, or at least that’s obvious to people who are either stupid
The headline read: “If We Really Did Have a ‘Creator,’ He Certainly Wouldn’t Have Been Very intelligent.”
Say what?!
The headline -- and story -- were on a site called The Daily Galaxy, of which I know nothing. But the piece and its banner were spawned by a remark Neil deGrasse Tyson made during one of his many public talks/interviews. At one point, Tyson actually stated, “If we had a creator, I’d have to say that the creator is pretty stupid.”
Unlike Neil deGrasse Tyson Himself, of course. I mean, he’s brilliant.
Tyson also magnanimously stated: “I have no problems, if as we probe the origins of things, we bump up

The swamp is being drained. And now that the first alligator has been taken out -- in the FBI raid on the home and office of Trump-hating former National Security official John Bolton, reportedly for mishandling state secrets -- the rest of them are sleeping with one eye open.
The raid is focusing a lot of minds.
They know what they did.
They are wondering who will be next?

John Bolton Could Face Years in Prison
16 replies
After the FBI raided John Bolton’s house on Friday, legal expert Jonathan Turley noted that the allegations against Bolton could potentially result in years of prison if they are true.
The Donald Trump-Kash Patel FBI reportedly raided Bolton’s home and office in search of classified documents. As my colleague Kevin Downey Jr. reported, Trump and co. have yet to confirm the report officially, but Patel and his deputy co-director Dan Bongino hinted on X that it was true and the raid was part of enforcing the law. Turley, when he commented, noted that allegations such as those leveled against Bolton could, if proved in court, lead to decades in prison.

President Donald Trump is responding to the decision by a New York appellate court Thursday to throw out the bogus $515 million fraud case brought against him by Attorney General Letitia James.
Here is Trump's full reaction, which he posted on Truth Social:
TOTAL VICTORY in the FAKE New York State Attorney General Letitia James Case! I greatly respect the fact that the Court had the Courage to throw out this unlawful and disgraceful Decision that was hurting Business all throughout New York State. Others were afraid to do business there. The amount, including Interest and Penalties, was over $550 Million Dollars. It was a Political Witch Hunt,
In May 1981, young Jewish American leaders visiting Israel had the opportunity to speak with then-Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. One asked, “What do you think are the lessons of the Holocaust?” Begin’s reply is eerily prescient and provides important lessons that Christians as well as Jews must learn in the face of ascendant Islam. The first point Begin made essentially predicted October 7 and mandated Israel’s fierce response to the war Hamas started:
Are James Comey's sudden babblings about how pop-tart singer Taylor Swift was his guide to life a sign that he knows he's legally up to his neck in alligators? Or is he just a weirdo? Seems both arguments have some truth. ack In case you haven't seen it, he wrote this sort of thing on his Substack, via GatewayPundit:

The Farce Is Strong With Mark Hamill
21 replies
Mark Hamill, the man most famous for playing the character of Luke Skywalker, recently admitted that he nearly packed his bags after Donald Trump won re-election in 2024. Apparently, the thought of another Trump term sent the actor spiraling into the dark side, ready to abandon this country altogether. He even floated the idea past his wife, Marilou York, offering her a choice between moving to London or settling in Ireland. It's a bold proclamation on its surface, but like so many of Hollywood’s political temper tantrums, it ended in retreat.

The deranged gunman who slaughtered two children and injured at least 17 others who were attending morning mass at a Catholic school in Minneapolis has been identified — as a disturbing video believed to have been posted by the shooter shows “kill Donald Trump” and “for the children” scrawled on gun magazines.
Robin Westman, who is in his early 20s, opened fire through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church during a celebratory back-to-school Mass filled with children, around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday.
Police are investigating whether a series of sick YouTube videos shared on an account hours before the shooting was connected to Westman, law enforcement sources told The Post.
The Minneapolis Police Department confirmed an active shooter allegedly opened fire at a church on the south side of Minneapolis Wednesday.
Details are scarce but an army of police and paramedics arrived at Annunciation Church, 509 W. 54th Street. Sources confirmed for KARE 11's Lou Raguse that there is an active shooter situation unfolding at the church. KARE 11 has multiple crews headed to the scene and will have the latest on the situation and victims.

We need to mark this one freeze frame, this digital data point in time, as that moment leftist lunacy was fully exposed in its utter moral collapse.
We think we've seen it before in the election losses, the USAID money laundering scandal, the cheating vote counters, the Beria school of malpractice at the Justice Department, and cheering for criminals. However, this moment, this snapshot, says it all.Like a controlled demolition of an old relic of a building, the scene in a Mexican restaurant captured on video showed a piece-by-piece, trope-by-trope implosion of the leftist superstructure built on the foundation of bigotry, lunacy, and hearsay.

The $250 million ‘Feeding Our Future’ free food fraud in which Somali groups stole a quarter of a billion dollars while claiming to feed hundreds of thousands of children who never existed seemed like the biggest case of welfare fraud in Minnesota, but it may be just the beginning.
Somali autism fraud, partly linked to the ‘Feeding Our Future’ scam, may be even bigger and after the FBI raids of autism clinics last December, the scale of it is still being put together.
In March 2023, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) stood in front of cameras and made a bold promise: 1,200 taxpayer-funded "tiny homes" would be deployed across the state by that fall to combat the exploding homelessness crisis. The cost? A staggering $750 million from California taxpayers. However, as we approach fall 2025, neither the 1,200 homes nor any trace of the $750 million can be found.
This is California under Democrat control: big promises, bloated budgets, and nothing to show for it.
ST. LOUIS – Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom’s press office drew attention to St. Louis over the weekend in a series of social media posts comparing murder rates in California cities to cities in states led by Republican governors. One post specifically compared St. Louis to Oakland, California, stating “St. Louis’ murder rate is a staggering 190% higher than Oakland’s. Do you think Fox [News] will cover that?” The post included a graphic with FBI-cited homicide rates per 100,000 residents, alongside an image of the Oakland Fox Theater and Republican Missouri U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley. According to Nexstar San Francisco
President Donald Trump called for leftist billionaire and mega-donor George Soros and his son, Alex Soros, to be prosecuted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act due to their financial support of violent protesters in the United States. In a post on Truth Social, Trump accused Soros and “his group of psychopaths” of causing “great damage” to the United States. Trump added that his administration would not “allow these lunatics to rip apart America” any longer.
St. Lucie County, Fl. - New Mexico State Police today released body cam video showing HarjinderSingh speaking limited English with a state trooper who pulled him over for speeding in July.
After days of speculation over how much English Singh understands, the fact that Singh was speaking English, however limited, represents a major development in the case.
Singh remains in the St. Lucie County Jail without bond after investigators say he made an illegal U-turn in his semi-truck on Florida's Turnpike on Aug. 12, resulting in a crash that killed three people in a minivan. Singh used a translator in his court appearance.

Trump has broken the Democrat party
11 replies
Trump has well and truly broken the Democrat party.
How do we know the Democrat party is broken?
Because Trump has them defending the indefensible, all manner of criminals – rapists, child molesters, murderers as well as robbers, wife-beaters, shoplifters, vicious gang members who travel in packs in cities like D.C., Chicago, New York City and Los Angeles -- creating chaos and carnage; not to mention the millions of illegal aliens who have flooded so many cities and changed the culture of those communities.
The Democrats love them all.
If they’re illegal, they want them to stay, criminal or not. We all know that is because they need their votes

Mourning Joe was tossing underhanded softballs to the stupid mayor and seemed to get a little irritated by the kamalasutra imitation word salad that didn’t answer the simple yes, or no question. Mika even put her hand on his arm in a sort of tone it down gesture. Methinks she saw a vision of the race card about to get thrown at her dear hubby for being too persistent in asking an African; American for a simple answer. Check out the video on YouTube, when chance affords. It’ll give you a chuckle.
