Though he has refrained from commenting on the legal problems facing failed former president Donald Trump, President Joe Biden was asked for his thoughts today on the mugshot taken Thursday in Georgia of the disgraced ex-president.
Biden, who is on vacation in Lake Tahoe, California, was asked by reporters if he’d seen the Trump mugshot.
The president chuckled and replied, “I did see it on television.”
What did you about the picture? A reporter inquired.
Based on the strange things he’s been posting on social media since his booking Thursday evening in Fulton County, Georgia, it’s safe to say there’s some incredibly odd thoughts going through the mind of failed former president Donald Trump.
The barrage of odd images began shortly after Trump left Georgia for his Bedminster, New Jersey golf club. For the first time in over two years, the disgraced ex-president posted on Twitter.
Never surrender? That’s exactly what he had just done in Atlanta.
But it was what Trump shared on his Truth Social site that really raised eyebrows, according to Mediaite.
But he ended his long day by posting to his own Truth Social platform late into the night and early am hours. In one message, he reassured users “I LOVE TRUTH SOCIAL. IT IS MY HOME!!!”
Many of the posts were reposts of messages from fans in reply to him, including one from a user named Andrea which read:
@realDonaldTrump is my HERO because he faces so much on a daily basis without even considering giving up. ❤️ He fights for us and gives it his all because he wants to Save America. He is up against so much and we Patriots are standing UNITED with him during it all! Our support and love is unwavering and we will continue to have his back as he has ours- and he ALWAYS has! We love you, President Trump. You are BRAVE and BOLD and you are a BADASS! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

The meme with that post is what drew the most attention.
How ironic that one of the guns says “pedophiles” when it’s Trump who was once accused of raping a 13-year-old girl with the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. Trump has also admitted that he’s sexually attracted to his own daughter, Ivanka.
As usual, Trump is suffering from persecution complex because he’s unwilling and unable to admit his own mistakes, including the ones that have led to his multiple indictments.
Not long after her husband filed for divorce in July of last year, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) began showing up in public with a man by the name of Brian Glenn, who works as Director Of Programming at Right Side Broadcasting Network.
It soon became clear that Greene and Glenn were indeed a couple, especially when they began posting photos of themselves together (and engaged in public displays of affection) on social media.
Ain’t they cute? It’s enough to make you vomit up the contents of your stomach and swear off the internet for a month.
And now Glenn is back in the headlines for whining about voters in Iowa flipping off his sweetheart at the Iowa State Fair, according to The Independent.
Marjorie Taylor Greene‘s boyfriend Brian Glenn shared an image on his Instagram story of them posing with kids in MAGA hats, only to notice afterwards that people in the background appeared to be photobombing them.
Ms Greene and Mr Glenn, the director of programming at the Right Side Broadcasting Network, attended the Iowa State Fair last weekend following a visit by former President Donald Trump.
“These kids screamed ‘we love MAGA, Trump 2024’ […] They were so happy!” Mr Glenn wrote in a caption of the photo.
However, if you look carefully in the upper left quadrant of the photo, it appears a woman is indeed flipping off the congresswoman and her beau, which triggered him BIG TIME, leading him to call the people “classless trash.”
This isn’t the first time Greene has been photobombed. She also got hit with a dose of disgust while campaigning in Georgia.
In June, Ms Greene shared a video on social media which seemed to include a constituent giving her the finger.
The Republican representative shared footage of her entering a stage in her district in northwest Georgia to a standing ovation, but one person appears to hold up their middle finger instead.
Sitting at the back and declining to stand and applaud, the constituent can be seen at the beginning of the video, which was posted on 1 June, as the rest cheer Ms Greene.
Interesting how the right-wing MAGA zealots can dish out the bile and vitriol, but they sure as hell can’t take it, can they?
Clearly feeling the pressure of the four criminal trials he’s facing, disgraced one-term, twice-impeached, and multiply-indicted former president Donald Trump held a pity party for himself on social media and openly suggested that he might abscond to Russia in order to avoid having to serve a day in prison for his crimes.
On Monday, attorneys for the failed ex-president reached a deal with Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis to surrender in Atlanta on Thursday, Aug. 24 for arraignment, booking, and processing. After he posts a $200,00 bail, Trump will be allowed to return home.
However, shortly after news of the surrender deal was made, Trump posted this on his struggling Truth Social site:
The failed District Attorney of Fulton County (Atlanta), Fani Willis, insisted on a $200,000 Bond from me. I assume, therefore, that she thought I was a “flight” risk – I’d fly far away, maybe to Russia, Russia, Russia, share a gold domed suite with Vladimir, never to be seen or heard from again. Would I be able to take my very “understated” airplane with the gold TRUMP affixed for all to see. Probably not, I’d be much better off flying commercial – I’m sure nobody would recognize me!
Trump has already been warned in other jurisdictions that he should be careful about what he posts on social media, and yet he’s now suggesting he might want to flee to Russia, which doesn’t have an extradition treaty with the United States.
Even if Trump is just joking (is he?), any accused criminal defendant who made a similar posting would likely be in custody and held without bond until their trial. Yet Donnie continues to walk free.
Despite holding a bachelor’s degree from Princeton University and law degree from Harvard, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) couldn’t resist proving once again that he isn’t the sharpest knife in the proverbial drawer and will literally believe just about anything he sees on social media.
The latest humiliation for Cruz came in the form of a posting on Twitter which purported to show a shark swimming down Highway 405 in downtown Los Angeles, which has been hit hard by flooding from Tropical Storm Hilary, according to Mediaite.
The 2023 version of the photo came from Dan Katz with Barstool Sports, whose X handle is “Big Cat.” He posted, “Friend of mine out in LA just took this picture on the 405. And yes, all news and media outlets you have permission to use this. Wild.”
As you can see from the fact check below the photo, it has been circulating online ever since 2011 and also showed up in 2015, 2016, and 2017.
Cruz later added a note after he’d managed to let the internet know that he’ll believe just about anything he runs across online.
Be sure to note the wording: I’m told this is a joke. Translation: Cruz cannot even accept the truth when it’s staring him in the face and he has access to Google. Why? Probably because he’s a damn idiot with an inflated ego that doesn’t allow him to admit he made a major mistake.
Let the mockery begin.
Friendly tip for Ted Cruz: Delete your Twitter account and stay off the internet.
