Hoisted on His Own Petard In the roughshod world of the Trump DOJ, politicized prosecution are fine, but Ed Martin apparently crossed the line when he allegedly improperly leaked grand jury materials in the bogus mortgage fraud investigation of Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA), CNN reports. That finding by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche fueled what…

What is the nature of Donald Trump?
Trump degrades everything.
DEGRADE: To lower in quality or value; make inferior or less valuable. “I always do well in a bad economy.”

That “bad publicity” clip is really something. Imagine having to defend that. You can’t–not even Leavitt can–because it’s so indefensible.

Holeee crap!
The embedded X link at the end has the crowd chanting.
Wow. That’ll put the fear o’ God into Republican Congresscritters. Are you even a Republican if you’ve pissed off the pro-wrestling crowds this badly? What next – looking at you NASCAR.
Oh, hey, the video is from Aaron Rupar. That makes sense. Here it is on Bluesky and Mastodon. Some other articles clipped the video - it is better to see how it develops here.

From the MM – ‘Bad Publicity’: President Trump dismisses the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents as “bad publicity”:
I think the worst thing about this, to me, is that – beyond its horror – it’s in no way a one-off for the president of the “indispensable nation” with its 340 million-plus people.
Despite being necessarily heavily involved in virtually every important, heavy, consequential issue on the planet, literally nothing – no thing – actually makes the tiniest dent of real consequence on his consciouness unless it directly impacts his own wallet or his own oh-so-delicate fee fees and ego.

And I’m finding it harder and harder to distract myself from that fact for more than a minute at a time, no matter what distractions I try.

His speech this morning at the prayer breakfast is as bad. ICE and CBP executing US citizens in broad daylight in front of witnesses is just fine.

Great news! He is destroying himself and his own party far better than the Democrats can ever do it.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Minnesota had 50 attorneys in their criminal division a year ago. It’s now down to 20. And I feel for the attorney who asked to be held in contempt so she could get some sleep and ends up getting fired.

His speech at the prayer breakfast and last night’s interview should galvanize Democrats. ICE needs to be defunded and money in that monstrosity he calls the big beautiful bill clawed back.

It’s very funny (I’m taking humor wherever I can at the moment) that Steve Bannon constantly shouts the desires of MAGA while being stuck on the outside. There’s a non-zero chance they try to blame everything Epstein on him as the desperation grows.
“Can you believe that rotting weirdo who wears seven layers of rumpled rags was Epstein’s BFF? It’s a good thing he had no role in anything and nobody knows him.”

I love the smell of desperation in the morning. He knows it’s all coming crashing down soon, and he’s panicking. He may need another shirt soon to hide the flop sweat.
