Just keeping you up to date with the daily Trump corruption. Need to update for posterity.

Trump and his lackies buy up 12,000 common names in the .si domain before his idiotic "Super Intelligence" BS is ever talked about. Then sells them out to companies that feel the need to buy them up at extreme inflated prices. I swear, they have the most creative ways to grift, it would be impressive if it weren't so illegal.

So Jack Smith is in the news again. That man has balls of steel. He's been threatened by Orange Julius over and over, and he keeps standing up to his corrupt ass.



After the midterms, we'll almost definitely see more blatantly illegal actions as well. MAGA is morally bankrupt and full of traitors to their country. Period.

I want to give props to Eric Schmith for giving a proper response to it. And by that I mean not only going off on a while conspiracy theory, but faceplanting spectacularly doing so.

Schmith: were you or were you not on February 2024 watching a hawks game in Atlanta?
Smith:... No?
Schmith: AHA! You perjured yourself. We have texts from your team that proceed you were there... And in that same Atlanta, so was someone else who doesn't like Trump! Show them the oversized printout, boys!
Team: *shows billboard poster for a second*
Klobuchar:... That's about a Hawkeyes game... Of a different sport... In Iowa.
Smith: oh yeah... That rings a bell.
Schmith: *dissolves into nothing*

It's really embarrassing, guys. It's like one side of the usa is the conscience, trying to do everything right and by the book... And the other is all about creating chaos, technicalities and retarded conspiracies. But for some reason, the latter sees this as a way to govern.
The most embarrassing part is perhaps that clip I saw of rightwing 'media' where they presented this situation as 'oh, you got some text on that dirtbag Smith. Well done! Have some flowers!'.

A couple extremely frustrating things about that whole thing:

Those two douches Bennie Johnson and Hannity both put out what looked like pre-made messages saying that Jack Smith was caught in a lie. They came out so fast that they had to have been given a heads up that it would be coming and they just copy-pasted their comments. Then after it all fell apart, they deleted their messages.

Second, you could see in Jack's face and how he was answering that he was taking every question very seriously and answering to his best knowledge. The guy has much more patience than I do. If someone was trying THAT hard to get me with a fake gotcha like that and faceplanted THAT hard, I would have railed into him on live TV calling him out for how pathetic he was. It was so blatantly obvious who was being truthful and who was attempting to smear, and there are STILL Americans who think Jack is evil.

Last, after he failed so epically, Schmitt tried to pass it off as "I was just asking questions, and he answered" feebly attempting to mitigate the damage to his image. No Eric, you don't make a giant billboard with a text message for "just asking questions" and calling the person a "dirtbag".

More updates to new illegal activities. This one is a little late to the party, and most people know that it's blatantly illegal. The now billionaire through corruption is now putting up political ads for the conservatives paid for by the US taxpayer. He could have used is ill-gotten money to fund it, but he's THAT cheap.

In ANY other situation, this would be front page illegal activity, but for Trump it was Tuesday.

Sigh.... more corruption from the idiot-in-chief. He'll stop at nothing to get as many tax breaks and government money as possible before he's violently removed from office.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/10/07/trump-wants-new-camp-david-his-own-golf-club/

So now for those keeping track, there is an unfinished reflecting pool, a demolished east wing of the white house, the Kennedy center is still closed, and the pointless arch is still pointless and hopefully not going to start.

What an embarrassment.

Was tempted to make a thread about Trump dropping sanctions on Russian diesel. It's such an insane event, some of the clearest proof yet of how utterly fucked Trump's position is, how bad things are getting, and yet...

Nobody really cares. The zone is completely flooded, the President of America being so compromised by his own interests and others that he will act like a Russian agent, get praised for it by the Kremlin, and nobody even blinks.

I don't think he's a literal Russian agent, for what it's worth. But he is so self-serving that it makes little practical difference - obsessed with gas prices, in a gas crisis he created, so he jumps when Putin offers him the worlds stupidest trade deal.

Russia gets more money, power, and propaganda to continue its war, and what does America get for selling out its allies? Nothing.
Trump,however, gets to make a post on his personal social network where he yells in all caps that gas prices will come down. Trying to gaslight reality.
It won't work, but he just needs to generate noise for the midterms. He's more desperate than ever.

I would make a thread if it seemed like there was even a single Trump supporter still lurking here. They're all in hiding now. It's too hard to justify, so better just not think too hard about it.

Trump was caught using US tax dollars to pay for and broadcast political advertisements on TV, that promoted his administration. Then Trump tried to claim they were only "public service announcements".
AdImpact, a political ad-tracking firm, estimated the government has spent at least $10 million US tax dollars to air the ads.

The funny thing about that one is that they were so lazy that they reused a campaign commercial back from 2024 and are now trying to claim it's not a campaign commercial. More blatant illegality.

Just another update in a long list of updates...interesting article about how Russia is targeting US businesses in Ukraine (Coca-Cola, Pepsi, McDonalds, among others) and Trump isn't doing anything about it.

https://edition.cnn.com/2026/10/14/...s-targeted-russia-ukraine-coca-cola-mcdonalds

Just exactly whose side is Trump on? I'm guessing his own. You would think an American president would be on the side of his own country, right?

Very telling that the businesses themselves aren't making much of a fuss about it, everybody is afraid that Trump will turn around and target them. Good job, voters, from democracy to banana republic in just about 8 years...

Just another day of one of Trump's friends, paying for sex with a minor; using and possessing illegal drugs including cocaine and Ecstasy; accepting gifts, including transportation and lodging in excess of permissible amounts; falsely obtaining a passport for a woman with whom he was engaged in sexual activity and obstructing the committee’s investigation into his conduct.

Yep, more illegal activity by MAGA. This time it was with 20 and 22 year old's so progress away from being a pedo?

Also, just to add to the illegality, the speed which the investigation was stopped points back to Trump being in on this one:
https://www.ms.now/news/news-analysis/cftc-insider-trading-referral-oil-trades-trump-corruption

Some traders made dillions of dollars' worth of bests that oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise 15 minutes before Trump made his announcement. That, understandably, caused an investigation to be launched, but then was squashed by the head of the CFTC. Seems even the CFTC, which is meant to be independent, is under Trump's control.

Yeah, their website still lists the stock text about how there are meant to be five Comissioners, of which no more than 3 can be from the same party.

And then it cuts to just a single picture of the single Trump appointee, who is also the Chairman because nobody else is left.

Ah you beat me to this one. Really funny how he specifies "I will be the arbitrator of these decisions", getting in front of the many, many, MANNNNNY expected whistleblowing within his own administration.

I didn't know what the guy looked like, but now that I see that shit-eating smile, it's kind of what I expected for a boot-licker.
