If this is all true — and what reason hath anyone, other than the deluded who believe he is actually faithful to Melania, to doubt it? — then this woman, Natalie Harp, ought to be charged with sedition. The implications are extraordinarily serious. Deliberately misleading the President of the United States about key economic indicators is not merely unethical, it must be considered a crime against the state, yeah?

Albeit, he wants to be lied to, but it does not matter what he wants, only that which is lawful. Or, at least, that used to be the way, and ought to be once more: the entire purpose of opposing this man, instead of just blindly supporting him as he leads the nation off a proverbial cliff, is to restore law, order, and reason.

FTA: Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast, host Joanna Coles and executive editor Hugh Dougherty dissected the claims, suggesting Harp's role stretches far beyond that of a typical presidential aide. According to the book, Trump has even turned to Harp to overrule Cabinet officials whenever he wants trade figures that better fit his own views.

Dougherty said, "So, she is fueling his delusions: she is providing him with endless praise that she prints out off random social media, and then it’s all being put out in public, and she is with him ‘round the clock."

The book also alleges Harp left deeply personal letters for the 80-year-old president to discover in his private spaces. In one, she reportedly wrote, "You are all that matters to me." Trump is said to have responded with his own declaration of loyalty, reportedly telling others that Harp, unlike his other aides, "will never leave me."

As I posted in the past day, these Republicans know there will be retribution coming ‘if’ (key word) they lose control of the government. The majority of those who would face justice probably would not be elected officials, but rather insiders such as this individual, Stephen Miller, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Linda McMahon, Jared Kushner, and all the other insiders who have, or have had, Trump’s ear. The ones who know where the bodies are buried.

They are telling him lies, and that, in turn, influences his decision-making. Do I really need to expound upon why that is wrong? Well, probably, but not today.

Trump post making himself the subject of the tragic murders of Rob and Michelle Reiner tells us all we need to know: he urgently must depart office

As matters stand, the millions of bullies, partisans, and sundry miscreants who idolise Donald Trump will not permit him to be removed from office, and the opposition remains far too cowed by their wrath to act decisively. The four years of Merrick Garland’s diffident stewardship of the Department of Justice demonstrated plainly enough that even the US government, law enforcement, and military are scared of a mass uprising of the coalition of the ‘unwashed’ that enabled Trump to come to power. Yet the necessity of casting him from power could not be more urgent. Were Melania anything other than a spent and useless trophy wife, or had any power over anything whatsoever, she would be seeking immediate and appropriate care for her visibly ailing, elderly husband. Instead, the nation is left in the hands of an unstable, deranged figure who leadeth us, step by step, towards the very pits of Hades.

The millions of my fellow Americans who voted for him—especially those of you who did so a second time in 2020 in the middle of COVID, and most tellingly a third time in 2024 (granted, the opposition’s betrayal of President Biden yielded a wretched and pitiful alternative)—ought to have both their heads and hearts examined. FULL STOP! Folk must grow a spine and demand, en masse, that this man resign for the good of whatever remains of the country. They must also call upon the legions who still profess loyalty to him to relinquish the fantasy at last: they backed a loser; they encouraged cruelty; they have erred grievously; and they cannot forever lay blame upon others for their (largely) self-inflicted miseries and myriad failures.

Whatsoever the cost, the rest of us must take a true and resolute stand against those among us who have enabled this degeneration—at the very least since his grotesque mishandling of the most severe public-health crisis in over a century, which he then compounded by fomenting a coup attempt when the election did not go his way. Nay, the reckoning ought to have begun in 2016, when he mocked a disabled reporter on national television. That moment told us all we needed to know about his character, yet millions revealed the poverty of their own by embracing him nonetheless.

And even now—after the passage of a number of years, after the catastrophic failures, after the felonious convictions, after all said and done (or not done)—they double down repeatedly, not from conviction but from spite, for to afflict the rest of us hath become their only animating purpose. The rest of us must, urgently and collectively, cultivate a backbone and cease tolerating this madness: whether from the president himself or from every soul that hath aided him across this ill-starred decade.

Enough.

The response of America to two distinct media scandals involving modeling work with lesbian themes, and the implications it holds regarding our society

#OTD 1983: Vanessa Williams is crowned the first black Miss America. She would be stripped of the crown following the publication of lesbian-themed softcore photos from her modeling portfolio. In 2016, many of the same people who called for Vanessa Williams’ head took no issue with the wife of a swindler - a white Eastern European lady who likewise had done lesbian-themed modeling work - becoming First Lady of the United States. In all fairness, Vanessa Williams did recover from the scandal and forge a prosperous singing career. Nevertheless, this narrative does not present a particularly flattering portrayal of the values and inclinations of this nation.
