Jim Jordan: Trump Can Ignore Rulings From Judges Because He Was ‘Elected’

If there was any remaining doubt that Republicans are ready, willing, and able to install Felon-in-Chief Donald Trump as an all-powerful dictator answerable to no one, it was burned to the ground and ceremonially stomped on by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) during an appearance on CNN this morning.

“Inside Politics” host Manu Raju pointedly asked Jordan about a recent ruling from a federal judge on Trump’s plan to try and end birthright citizenship via executive order.

“I’m talking about, there’s a pattern where judges are saying they’re going too far on these issues,” Raju noted.

“All I know is, again, Article Two, Section One, the very first sentence, ‘The executive power shall be vested in a president,'” Jordanreplied, citing the Constitution. “I think it’s important, ‘a president of the United States of America,’ not in bureaucrats, not in career people — in the president. The guy who put his name on the ballot.”

“This is a fundamental difference we have with the left. The left thinks, ‘Oh, it’s the career experts who make the decisions,’ Jordan added. “That’s not how our country works. It’s the guy who puts his name on the ballot, gets elected by ‘We the people.’ He gets to make the decisions, or she gets to make the decisions. That’s how — we don’t want the Faucis of the world and all the people in the bureaucracy making the decisions. We want the guy who puts their name on the ballot and gets elected by the American people.”

“But, you guys are elected, too, you know, co-equal branch of the government,” Raju reminded Jordan.

We the People also means the judges and others in government who serve as invaluable checks and balances on the power of the other branches. The Founding Fathers saw what a king or dictator can do when he has unchecked power. That’s why they started a revolution to break away from England and form a nation with a new system of government where one person doesn’t have unlimited power.

If Jordan and the GOP want to live in a country where one man has all the say on every matter, they need to pack up their shit and move to Russia. And they need to take Trump with them.

Donald Trump Elon Musk The Trump Adminstration WTF?!

Concern And Outrage After Trump Admits Elon Musk May Be Violating Privacy Laws

Comments made Friday by Felon-in-Chief Donald Trump during a press conference could soon come back to haunt the administration and its Chief Officer of Government Destruction, Elon Musk.

Trump was asked by a Fox News reporter if Musk and his so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) need unfettered access to the private information stored on government computers. That information includes medical records, bank accounts, and other private data that is supposed to be kept securely by the government.

“Well, it doesn’t, but they get it easily. I mean, we don’t have very good security in this country and they get it very easily,” Trump replied.

Trump’s remarks came just hours after the Washington Post reported that a handpicked Musk associate is now in control of the Treasury payment system that disperses Social Security checks, Medicare payments, and tax refunds.

“The decision puts Musk’s DOGE in a potential position to make sweeping changes to the federal budget, with implications for tens of millions of Americans,” the Post report notes. “The payment system, run by the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, contains sensitive taxpayer information, and some former Treasury officials have expressed concerns about granting access to individuals with private business interests. The move has also touched off broad alarm within the Treasury Department, the people said.”

“This is the bureau designed to be run by a career, nonpolitical person, but being taken over by a member of DOGE,” said Aaron Klein, a former Treasury Department official now at the Brookings Institution, a D.C. think tank. “It’s pretty scary — the Fiscal Service is the bureau of the people who cut the checks. They don’t determine who gets the checks. And the data that goes through this is of massive national security consequences.”

And now we have Trump suggesting that it was easy for Musk and his associates to get into that payment system and the private information it contains because security isn’t very good. Is that supposed to make us feel better? Are we supposed to trust Elon Musk with our credit reports, medical records, and other private data?

Trump’s comments set off a firestorm of anger and concern online.

Using Trump’s so-called “logic,” does this mean we all have the right to steal other people’s credit and debit card PINs and charge things on their bank accounts? After all, it’s easy to look over someone’s shoulder and see what numbers they’re punching into the keypad. If we do that, will the Justice Department still charge us with a crime, or will the “Musk rules” be applied to us so we can get away with highway robbery?

Holy shit we are so damn fucked.

Tommy Tuberville Reveals Trump’s ‘Dictator’ Dreams With A Terrifying Faux Pas

Back in December of 2023, Traitor-in-Chief Donald Trump proudly told the world exactly what he had planned if he won the 2024 election.

During a town hall meeting with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Trump was asked if he would govern democratically if voters put him back in the White House. Would he be a dictator?

“Except for day one,” Trump responded. I want to close the border, and I want to drill, drill, drill.”

“We love this guy,” Trump said of Hannity. “He says, ‘You’re not going to be a dictator, are you?’ I said: ‘No, no, no, other than day one. We’re closing the border, and we’re drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I’m not a dictator.’”

Less than a month into his second term in office, however, Trump is clearly operating like a dictator each and every day. He’s issuing executive orders, shutting down agencies, freezing funds allocated by Congress, and suggesting that more draconian actions are yet to come from his administration.

If there was any doubt that Emperor Trump does indeed plan to be an American Caesar, it was destroyed by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) during an appearance on right-wing “news” network Newsmax while discussing Trump’s executive order that would ban trans girls and women from participating in women’s sports.

Tuberville remarked, “There is no dictatorship here other than Donald Trump saying, ‘This is not gonna happen.’”

Tommy Tuberville: "There is no dictatorship here other than Donald Trump saying, 'this is not gonna happen.'"

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-02-06T22:23:43.399Z

It’s like something out of Orwell’s 1984, isn’t it? Big Brother will do whatever he wants and call it something else. You know the routine: “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.”

In essence, Tuberville is saying Trump has every right to act as an absolute authoritarian because that’s just how things are now in the United States. Apparently, we went from a representative democracy to a fascist state in one election. The Founding Fathers would be so damn proud!

Here’s some of the reaction to Tuberville’s remarks:

That's literally the definition of dictatorship

(@erroneousbosch.bsky.social) 2025-02-06T23:54:43.352Z

We don't have a dictatorship, we just have this one guy who dictates what happens.

Dan Thiell (@danthiell.bsky.social) 2025-02-06T22:26:40.194Z

"There is no dictatorship here other than our leader dictating what can and cannot happen."

Kevin M. Kruse (@kevinmkruse.bsky.social) 2025-02-06T23:44:44.930Z

Tommy Tuberville just admitted Trump is a dictator—he just thinks it’s fine. “There is no dictatorship here other than Trump saying ‘this is not gonna happen.’” Buddy, that’s the definition of a dictatorship! They aren’t even hiding it anymore. Wake up, America!

Liberal Donald J. Trump (@notdontrmp.bsky.social) 2025-02-06T22:34:39.558Z

Nothing to see here, ladies and gentlemen! Just good old American fascism taking hold and erasing our constitutionally guaranteed rights one by one. Sleep well.

Donald Trump Religion WTF?!

Prayer Breakfast From Hell: Trump Rants And Spews Heresies During ‘Christian’ Speech

The color of his face reminiscent of a jack-o’-lantern, Rapist-in-Chief Donald Trump ranted and raged at this morning’s National Prayer Breakfast, spouting outright heresies and speculating he might want to be reelected for a third term in office even though the U.S. Constitution forbids it.

Trump announced the formation of a task force to “eradicate anti-Christian bias,” which is ridiculous because the majority religion in the United States just so happens to be Christianity.

“While I’m in the White House, we will protect Christians in our schools, in our military, in our government, in our workplaces, hospitals and in our public squares,” he said. “And we will bring our country back together as one nation under God.”

As for that third term, Trump proclaimed, “I want to be here with you, and I have to be here with you, and I do that despite the fact that they say I can’t run again.”

The Heretic-in-Chief also claimed that the assassination attempt on his life last year in Butler, Pennsylvania, “changed something in me.”

“I feel even stronger,” he added. “I believed in God, but I feel, I feel much more strongly about it. Something happened.”

While he was at it, Trump also said he didn’t want some people praying for him.

“I don’t like people who use their faith as justification for doing what they know is wrong. Nor do I like people who say, ‘I pray for you,’ when they know that that’s not so.”

Keep in mind this is the very same Donald Trump who proudly proclaimed in 2015 that he had never asked for forgiveness from God.

“I am not sure I have. I just go on and try to do a better job from there. I don’t think so,” he said. “I think if I do something wrong, I think, I just try and make it right. I don’t bring God into that picture. I don’t.”

Trump said that while he hasn’t asked God for forgiveness, he does participate in Holy Communion.

“When I drink my little wine – which is about the only wine I drink – and have my little cracker, I guess that is a form of asking for forgiveness, and I do that as often as possible because I feel cleansed,” he said. “I think in terms of ‘let’s go on and let’s make it right.’”

Trump’s remarks at the prayer breakfast didn’t sit well with many.

The best estimates we have for the 1770s and 80s put church membership rates in Revolutionary America at about 17%. In the election of 1800, the main criticism of and most widespread fear about Jefferson was that he didn’t believe in God.

If we’re lucky, hell will soon swallow up the Orange Pustule and hold him in purgatory for a few thousand years.

Jasmine Crockett: Donald Trump Is A ‘White Supremacist’ And I’m ‘Tired Of White Tears’

Texas Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has seen more than enough of what Bigot-in-Chief Donald Trump and his Republican minions in Congress have to offer the country, and she’s calling them out as the racist pieces of crap they are.

During an appearance on CNN yesterday, Crockett was asked by host Laura Coates about the recent appointment of Darren Beattie to serve under Secretary of State Marco Rubio despite having written in 2024, “Competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work. Unfortunately, our entire national ideology is predicated on coddling the feelings of women and minorities, and demoralizing competent white men.”

Crockett replied, “He needs to go. Right now we have a white supremacist that is sitting in the White House. He is backed up by other white supremacists.”

The congresswoman also noted that a high percentage of white supremacists resort to violence and yet “for whatever reason sit and they serve at the pleasure of the president. … They were the ones there on Jan. 6 tearing our democracy down physically and now we have them tearing us down from within.”

Coates noted that Trump had denied being a white supremacist, which led Crockett to respond, “I don’t care what he said.”

The Texas Democrat added, “When you look and you compare me to [GOP Georgia Rep.] Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to [GOP Colorado Rep.] Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. The only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so much harder.”

Trump and his GOP allies, Crockett claimed, want to deny people of color an education “because they don’t want any more Kamala Harrises, they don’t want any more Jasmine Crocketts.” 

For future reference, if you want to know what American political figures are white supremacists, you don’t have to look any further than today’s GOP. They are actively working to try and drag the United States back to a time when only wealthy white men had rights the rights guaranteed to us all by the Constitution, a document they’d love to rip up and replace with Mein Kampf.
