We are in uncharted waters. Donald Trump is a convicted felon. The whole thing is perverse. The American brand has been dragged through the mud, sunk to the level of a banana republic where rulers take their political enemies out to the jungle to disappear. This great nation now stands diminished in the eyes of international investors. And the economic consequences for ordinary Americans could be dire. No doubt, this sordid trial – brought by partisan Democratic prosecutors in Manhattan – has already done serious damage to America's credibility.

Well, a banana republic is good for some businesses. You know, those owned or run by the masters of the plantation.

The Chief Judge for the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals officially shut down coordinated complaints against Judge Aileen Cannon. Judge Aileen Cannon is overseeing Jack Smith’s classified documents case against President Trump. Leftists are losing their minds because they don’t have control over Cannon’s courtroom.

Donald Trump will be a 'loser president' and bring about an end to America's status as a global leader should he decide to end aid to Ukraine if he is elected president, Volodymyr Zelensky has declared. The Ukrainian President took aim at Trump in a scathing interview last week in which he insisted his country 'would not put up with' any deals made between a Trump administration and Vladimir Putin that would see Kyiv sacrifice parts of the Donbas in return for peace. And he said that any decision to cut off weapons and support to Ukraine would have dire consequences - not only for Trump personally, but also America's standing

Releasing the audio recording of Joe Biden's bumbling interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur would make phony versions more believable, the Justice Department has claimed. The White House is fighting a rearguard action to keep the tape secret after the president was described as an 'elderly man with a poor memory' by Hur during his investigation into the mishandling of classified documents. A transcript revealed that the president forgot the year his son Beau died, when Trump was elected, and said 'I don't recall', 'I don't remember' and 'I have no goddamn idea' more than 100 times while cracking jokes and making car noises.

If scum came in human form it’s likely that it would share many similarities to Michael Cohen, and the star witness in the third-world Trump sham trial is again spewing his lies in the media. The disgraced ex-lawyer is feeling the love after a tainted jury excused his dishonesty and admitted thievery and he went on MSNBC and claimed that the former president would spill state secrets if he’s locked up next month. On Saturday’s edition of “The Weekend,” the convicted felon that the left-wing media loves to love claimed that he’s “afraid” that if Judge Juan Merchan sends Trump to jail – likely Rikers Island – he will endanger

Former President Donald Trump may be banned from the United Kingdom, Canada, and other countries should his felony conviction hold up. Last week, a 12-person jury in Manhattan found the former president guilty on 34 counts for falsifying records to pay off porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election. The former president will likely appeal his conviction, which may or may not be overturned before the November election. Should the former president win the election before the conviction could be overturned, certain countries would have to make an exception if he were to visit on official business.

Bombshell testimony from Dr. Anthony Fauci reveals he made up the six foot social distancing rule and other measures to 'protect' Americans from covid. Republicans put out the full transcript of their sit down interview with Fauci from January just days before his highly-anticipated public testimony on Monday. They plan to grill him about covid restrictions he put in place, that he admitted didn't do much to 'slow the spread' of the virus. Kids' learning loss and social setbacks have been well documented, with one National Institute of Health (NIH) study calling the impact of mask use on students' literacy and learning 'very negative.'

If you do any amount of movie or TV series streaming via Netflix, Prime or other channels, you may have noticed a truly annoying trend of loud, inappropriate songs in the background of what you’re watching. The singers are almost always bad and the lyrics almost always totally wrong for the content of the movie or series you're watching. I was watching a murder-mystery thriller movie on Prime and suddenly a soundtracker bursts into loud, raucous songs about something utterly unrelated to the plot. I have noticed this trend mostly in the last five years but lately, it has been enough to make me hit the mute button.

Mitt Romney (R-UT) criticized progressive Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for politically persecuting the former president. Romney, a long-time Trump critic, accused Bragg of committing “political malpractice,” arguing that the case should have been settled without a trial. “Bragg should have settled the case against Trump, as would have been the normal procedure. But he made a political decision,"
