Don Jr. Gets Humiliated When He Attempts To Paint Those Opposed To His Father As ‘Pedophiles’

Donald Trump Jr. is very upset with those who dare to criticize his father and helped make sure he was defeated in the 2020 presidential election.

 

Specifically, Junior attacked the Lincoln Project, which released a series of devastating ads during the 2020 race that pointed out all of the Donald’s many faults and massive failures.

A couple of weeks ago, it was revealed that John Weaver, who founded the Lincoln Project, had resigned after allegations surfaced that he’d sent sexual messages to young men.

So, the sanctimonious son of the failed former president fired off these tweets:

Grifting? Pedophile Project? That sounds more like some classic psychological projection on Junior’s part. After all, his father was accused of “repeatedly raping” a 13-year-old girl with the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

As for grifting, that’s what the entire Trump family has been doing for decades. Does Trump University ring a bell? What about Trump Steaks and wine? All of those bilked students and investors out of millions when the Donald J. Trump Foundation wasn’t stealing money from a children’s cancer charity so they could spend the money on their own personal peccadilloes.

Don Jr. was quickly hit with a ton of internet karma:

Nancy Pelosi Trolls House GOP Leader As ‘Qanon’ McCarthy

Though you might not realize it, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has a wicked sense of humor. Watch an interview with her and you’ll see at least one instance where Pelosi will fire off a well-placed line that expertly skewers someone such as Donald Trump or Mitch McConnell.

But perhaps the finest bit of comedic trolling the Speaker has pulled off in recent memory took place on Saturday evening when her office put out a press release in which it was suggested that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is no longer a Republican and instead joined the nutjob conspiracy theorists of QAnon who believe that Democrats are all Satanic baby-eating ghouls who rule the world with the help of the devil.

The headline of the press release reads: “Minority Leader McCarthy (GOP) (QAnon) Embraces Marjorie Taylor Greene”

Greene, of course, is the Georgia congresswoman who has been spouting disgustingly racist and anti-Semitic bile since she first announced her candidacy.

The press release then states:

“Less than one week after placing Sandy Hook Truther Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green on the House Education Committee, Minority Leader McCarthy is facing increased criticism for his refusal to take action against the conspiracy-theory spreading Congresswoman.”

Here’s a screengrab of the full press release:

It’s hard to argue with what Pelosi is claiming. McCarthy and others in the GOP have indeed allowed the lunatics to run the asylum, and it’s destroying the Republican Party.

If the GOP cannot find a way to dump disgusting assholes like Marjorie Taylor Greene, then they deserve to go the way of the dinosaurs.

Trump Dealt Major Blow In Court As He’s Forced To Hand Over Incriminating Documents

Donald Trump was dealt a major blow on Friday when a New York judge ordered him to hand over a treasure trove of documents to New York Attorney General Letitia James, according to the New York Times:

“A New York judge on Friday increased pressure on former President Donald J. Trump’s family business and several associates, ordering them to give state investigators documents in a civil inquiry into whether the company misstated assets to get bank loans and tax benefits.”

This is the second time Judge Arthur F. Engoron of the State Supreme Court in Manhattan had ruled against Trump and the Trump Organization in recent weeks:

“In December, he ordered the company, the Trump Organization, to produce records that its lawyers had tried to shield, including some related to a Westchester County, N.Y., property that is among those being scrutinized by the New York State attorney general, Letitia James. On Friday, Judge Engoron went further, saying that even more documents, as well as communications with a law firm hired by the Trump Organization, had to be handed over to Ms. James’s office. In doing so, he rejected the lawyers’ claim that the documents at issue were covered by attorney-client privilege.”

The former president, his family, and his company are also under investigation by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr., who suspects that Trump may have committed insurance and tax fraud. A grand jury is already empaneled to investigate those matters and hand down indictments.

When he was president, Trump had a certain level of immunity from prosecution. But those days are long gone and now he’s at the mercy of the courts. Considering his shady past, Trump has much to be worried about.

Donald Trump Impeachment U.S. Senate

Lindsey Graham Is Terrified Of What Witnesses Will Say At Trump’s Second Impeachment Trial

The second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump is set to begin on Monday, February 8, and unlike the first impeachment trial, there’s a very real possibility that witnesses will be allowed this time.

Though details are still being worked out between Senate Democrats and their Republican counterparts, it seems likely that witnesses will be allowed if only because Democrats have the majority and can insist on such a plan.

One of those who has agreed to testify against Trump is Jacob Chansley, who is also known as the “QAnon Shaman.” He’s this guy:

According to Chansley’s attorney, his client feels Trump “betrayed” his supporters:

“Lawyer Albert Watkins said he hasn’t spoken to any member in the Senate since announcing his offer to have Jacob Chansley testify at Trump’s trial, which is scheduled to begin the week of Feb. 8. Watkins said it’s important for senators to hear the voice of someone who was incited by Trump.

Watkins said his client was previously ‘horrendously smitten’ by Trump but now feels let down after Trump’s refusal to grant Chansley and others who participated in the insurrection a pardon. ‘He felt like he was betrayed by the president,’ Watkins said.”

And the thought of witnesses has Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) terrified and he proved that Friday when he tweeted out this:

So what if the trial does go on for months? Isn’t the purpose of a trial to uncover the truth? Not in Lindsey’s bizarro world.

Also, if Trump is so innocent, shouldn’t Senate Republicans want witnesses who could prove that he did nothing wrong?

How do you know someone’s guilty? When the people defending him are afraid of the facts.

City of Palm Beach Working To Evict Donald Trump From Mar-a-Lago

When he left the White House on January 20, Donald Trump boarded Air Force One and headed to his Mar-a-Lago golf resort in Palm Beach, Florida, which has become his new home.

But the former president might not want to get too comfortable, because the town is looking at forcibly evicting the Donald from his resort because it was never meant to be a residence, according to Forbes:

“Former President Donald Trump’s transition from the White House to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida might not go as smoothly as he had hoped because of an agreement he signed 28 years ago with the town of Palm Beach that only allowed him to stay at the resort for seven days at a time, with the town government reportedly eying the issue.”

Yep. Palm Beach has Trump’s signature on a document, and he’s already overstayed the terms of the agreement, having been at Mar-a-Lago for 10 days and counting. That alone gives town officials the right to take Trump to court and demand he leave the premises ASAP.

The agreement between Trump and Palm Beach also has other details that limit the amount of time the former president can reside at the Florida club:

“While under financial stress in 1993, Trump sought to monetize the residential mansion by turning it into a club, but the deal he struck with the town to allow that stipulated he could only live there for seven consecutive days and 21 days in a year.”

What prompted Palm Beach to suddenly take interest in Trump’s extensive residency at Mar-a-Lago? One of neighbors complained:

“A neighbor sent a letter to the town demanding it enforce the residency requirement — Town Manager Kirk Blouin told the Associated Press that the town is considering its options and the matter could be brought up at Palm Beach’s February council meeting.”

Ironically, the neighbor reported Trump because he fears that the former president’s presence in Palm Beach will significantly lower property values.

So while the Donald may currently call Mar-a-Lago home, he could soon be looking for a new place to live, and it’s a safe bet his next residence won’t be in Palm Beach.
