And I would add to your well said remarks, that this is the president who has pulled the security protection of Harris, and many other government officials who disagree with him, even some in his own party.
First off he is not a President. He is a criminal. It begins and ends there. His agenda is to incite hate and division by all and any means possible. Do not try to compare what "should" be done or said, by what IS said and done, by this corrupt individual.
Exactly how my two Senators and Representative responded to my emails when I asked them to not support the unqualified advisors coming up for a vote. They believe their job is to vote the way the majority of the constituents voted in the election. So, to me that is like rubber stamping.
Dianne, yep, just EVIL. I do think a lot of it is related to his dementia too, but that does not excuse it because his "whisperers" are dropping all kinds of EVIL into his little ears and onto his "Truth Social" which is appalling and proves this is a whole Republican set of actions, not just a one-man show.
Dianne, I sure would like to forget her. She is the woman that proves the rule that women have to be twice as good as the men to be noticed and she is very good at all the things Trump's men do, and does whatever Trump demands of her, a good little pseudomommy, just like Pam Bondi.
Punkette, you are so right. Miller is EVIL incarnate. Trump has picked up a lot of that EVIL on top of what he already possessed from childhood. why people choose to follow EVIL is beyond comprehension. I think Miller has a personality disorder of some kind as Trump has, but Trump's is now being overshadowed by his dementia which is deepening all the time. It was pretty clear in his video about Charlie Kirk's murder, which he almost cheered because it let him lie intensely about Democrats and anyone who does not go along with his BS. He only has a few responses in his repitoire: blaming, lying to protect himself, and repeating whatever his "whisperers" tell him to say. Oh yes, there are also the Executive Orders, many of which are illegal, but who cares because he doesn't really understand what he is signing anyway except that it will do harm to someone or rather a bunch of someones.
I place DJT at the center of Charlie Kirk’s death. DJT isn’t responsible for the history of politically motivated killings in America, but he’s responsible for fanning the flames and normalizing it through rhetoric and his politics of division. This is undoubtedly true. He keeps his hands clean while indirectly murdering thousands. As a sociopath, this comes easy to him because he is incapable of feeling an emotion that does not directly involve himself. Therefore, I do not believe there is sincerity in his statement about Charlie Kirk. I am certain he did not write it, and I suspect someone had to tell him to say something about it by reading a statement that was prepared for him. Remember, this is the same person who said he lost hundreds of friends on 9/11 but never attended a single funeral as I hear it. He also bragged on 9/11 about his building now being the tallest in the NYC skyline. That is where his head was and is. I pray every day for justice.
I was 30 years old, watching live on TV in the trading room as both towers collapsed. My boss yelled for me to grab the backup tapes and run. As an IT Director at the CBOT, I raced down 17 flights of stairs, clutching those emergency drives, fleeing the financial district we were sure would be hit next. At the train station, I bumped into a good friend, and we waited patiently for the train to pull out and carry us north to safety. Then, suddenly, all power cut out, and in that moment, we were certain the war had reached our lakeshore.
How did we get here? It's a story too long to tell in a comment, but we all own this country. So what do we do? We run from anyone who speaks from a place of hate, and toward those who lead with kindness and compassion. We flee violent protests and embrace voices calling for peace and prosperity.
This is the first time in my life I've felt truly adrift, with no visionary alive today like Gandhi, MLK, Mandela, Meir, Angelou, Mother Teresa, Desmond Tutu, or Princess Diana, to hand us the ladder out of this darkness. But we have you, Mary. Thank you. Thank you for speaking for the silent majority of us who care so deeply and only want to live in peace.
So well said! Thank you for not giving the usual platitudes that most of the media is giving by saying that it’s just a terrible thing all around and everybody should be ashamed of themselves. You elucidated what I am feeling. As usual, you are spot on.
I am going to have to have proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that this was not a false flag operation. Despots, dictators, cult leaders and mob bosses will do absolutely anything, including using their friends as tools to further their own ambitions.
YOU are ABSOLUTELY correct. My thoughts exactly, from the MOMENT that I saw the news. That's Exactly how they act, and what they do. Imho, he is USING everyone he picked in that cabinet, and finds them expendable if it's necessary to expand HIS agenda.
Mary wrote: "The right does not condemn political violence, at least when it's wielded against their perceived political enemies. In fact, they celebrate it." and I have to respond with:
When one side starts kicking the other one in the nuts, the only way to survive is to play by the same rules, otherwise, you're just a bunch of people with principles writhing on the ground holding your groins while the other guys laugh and wind up to kick your nuts again.
For 10 fucking years we've been acting just like a bunch of people with principles writhing on the ground holding our nuts, who are just totally surprised every single solitary time they kick our nuts again and again and again, every goddamn day.
Now they're kicking us in the nuts over Charlie Kirk. And the fucking Democrats are EULOGIZING HIM while he was preaching that they should die.
Charlie Kirk was a piece of shit.
Charlie Kirk got rich preaching hate.
Charlie Kirk got rich preaching murder.
Charlie Kirk got rich preaching genocide.
Charlie Kirk got rich going onto college campuses and deluding young, unformed minds into thinking that CHRISTIAN WHITE FASCISM was the way to go.
Fuck Charlie Kirk. He got what he preached. ESPECIALLY about the 2nd Amendment.
Democrats, and those who love democracy, (and ESPECIALLY if you're old enough to remember what Nazis did, and what they ARE) if you can't tell the truth about him and instead feel that you have to eulogize him, just SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP. After all, who praises Nazis?
The only thing that any Democrat that gets a microphone shoved in his face and asked about Kirk's killing should say is "I decry the shooting of any public figure" and STOP TALKING.
And does anyone want to bet that, like Trump’s ear, this too is a false flag operation? Do you think Trump would do that?
I started with a quote from Mary Trump and I might as well end by answering that question with a quote from Mary and one word from me afterwards: “If Donald, IN ANY WAY, can profit from your death, he will facilitate it, and then ignore the fact that you died.“ EPSTEIN.
You're so right. I think this guy gets way too much attention. How about just offering some "Thoughts and Prayers" and move on. Let's not get distracted from what really matters, EPSTEIN for example.
And Patel's FBI is so decimated, I'm reading and hearing, that it can't tell its a** from its elbow.
PS: Did you see the NYT photo of the alleged suspect in the stairway? He sure doesn't look like a libtard to me, at least not from his T-shirt. But, of course, truth doesn't matter to Trump or the MAGAts. Their incendiary speech and actions against the left come naturally out of their vile mouths.
Yes though he may have been dressing to fit into the crowd don't forget.
Who knows his ideologies until he is identified, linked to the rifle and social media is scoured. More than a few shooters recently have been all over the board when it comes to ideology, interestingly enough.
I agree with you 100%! It’s funny how trump and his cronies can be vile & hateful to others but gets mad when folks gives it back to him! NOT ONCE has there been an ounce of condolences for the Minn. legislator & her husband and the great dog, from trump’s mouth or his lying puppets!
That is the best journalism (as it would be called), but it came from your heart and soul! I am very sad about where we are in this America. But, the truth you told here needs to be “digested” by us all! Very scary world right now!!! Thank you for your honesty!!
Ugh. You were 6 weeks from delivery on your way to the OB that morning? I am devastated every time I think about that day. I had just moved from Manhattan to SFO & it took many days to reach all my friends, clients & contacts in NYC to see if they were ok. A good friend was on the flight from Logan.
Unlike you, I wasn’t there. I didn’t see it, except on TV. Over & over. I’m so sorry your daughter’s arrival is so tied in your memories to that day, week, month, year… I’m so glad you weren’t downtown when it happened. We need you.
political figures make front-page, but a school shooting in Colorado was on page 9 in local news. do we value human life more if it is one politician or three high schoolers in critical condition?
I know. THAT really bothered me and saddened me to tears. No news even acknowledged that. And I'm like WTF????!! Smh... I will never wrap my head around that. It's as if children mean nothing!!! After that, I begin to feel the anger.
I thought the same thing. I heard about the school shooting on the police scanner, almost an hour before it was on the news. I searched several news outlets and found no mention. I guess innocent kids getting shot isn't as newsworthy anymore since it is a regular occurrence in America. Why don't all of those fake Christians pray for peace instead of teaching retribution and spreading unmitigated lies? I hope these heartless hypocritical chtistisn nationslists get a heart before they destroy our country. Evidently, they don't believe in hell because they wouldn't support satan if they believed their

Not only that, but he doesn’t think he represents all Americans, only those who support him.

Are you from Ohio? Because I get the same thing from our Senators and Rep.
Did you see this?

I just subscribed to this amazing podcast.. but haven’t seen Mary’s live podcasts since August 22, 2025
-stealing this
Trump revoked the security protection for Harris after he has whipped his followers into a frenzied hatred of her.
Dianne, yep, just EVIL. I do think a lot of it is related to his dementia too, but that does not excuse it because his "whisperers" are dropping all kinds of EVIL into his little ears and onto his "Truth Social" which is appalling and proves this is a whole Republican set of actions, not just a one-man show.
Spot on, Ruth. The head “whisperer” is Dump’s malevolent chief propagandist, Stephen Miller (aka Goebbels Jr.).
This is not political. It is beyond that.This is a battle for the soul of this nation.
Let's not forget Laura Lumer!
Argh! You are right. Two demonic peas in a pod.
Dianne, I sure would like to forget her. She is the woman that proves the rule that women have to be twice as good as the men to be noticed and she is very good at all the things Trump's men do, and does whatever Trump demands of her, a good little pseudomommy, just like Pam Bondi.

Well said, sister! Scary stuff. The inmates are running the asylum. 😱
Punkette, SO TRUE!!
Herr miller isn’t a gobbels. Hes not doing the propaganda. That Trump, the White House, and the Russians.
Miller is more like Himmler. He’s a details psychopath.
Perfectly stated, Mary.

Trump doesn’t have a sincere bone in his body. All he can do is mimic human emotions while pouring gasoline on a bonfire of hate.

Exactly. This was Dump and Miller’s Reichstag Fire. They are salivating to provoke another civil war in America.
Precisely.
I don't even see how they could have security in a state with open carry and concealed carry both allowed.
Utah and my birth state Idaho are arguably the reddest states west of the rockies. What happened to Idaho makes me want to cry sometimes.
It's all so stupid. Don't let this divide us:

Narcissist, compulsive liar
Less than bright, multiply convicted felon who bought SCOTUS and together are ruining democracy
