Not Untrue
A Little Something From BTC
Let’s get a little meta here and dig into the Epstein fallout from a political perspective.
Is this weird conspiracy theory really what we should be focusing on?
I am a student of the Dan Pfeiffer philosophy that we exploit issues that unite our party and divide the other party. Democrats are united in their desire to see the Epstein files released. Most Republicans also want to see the Epstein files released, other than a small faction of the most hardcore MAGA supporters. A YouGov poll from July 15 revealed as much:
It is political malpractice not to exploit an issue that unites 85% of Democrats, 76% of Independents, and 75% of Republicans— leaving Donald Trump and his sycophants appealing to a pathetic four percent of Americans.
Elevating independent or rightwing voices
Trump’s position has earned him bipartisan criticism. He’s being assailed by the likes of Joe Rogan, Theo Von, Andrew Schulz, Dave Smith, Shane Gillis, and many others. We should highlight their voices for two reasons: first, if you’re a Democrat, you may not have much credibility with Independents or Republicans. I certainly have far less credibility with Trump supporters than Joe Rogan – who helped Trump get elected – has with those same people. Which means that while my criticism may not carry much weight, his does. If I can help share effective criticism, why wouldn’t I jump at the opportunity? This is not about validating rightwing platforms or endorsing all of their opinions; this is about amplifying a message that will be particularly persuasive among the broader universe of voters. Period. Remember: the goal of politics is not purity; it’s winning elections, gaining power, and enacting our agenda.
Second, we need to create an incentive structure for those flirting with anti-Trump messaging to speak out. For example, Theo Von weighed in on this issue:
If we attack Theo Von as he’s criticizing the Trump administration (“You voted for this!”), what incentive is there for him to criticize them further? None. So throw him a like and retweet, and welcome his voice into the chorus of other voices speaking out. Our response cannot be to scold those who can be our allies – effective allies! – in this fight.
The right is very good is offering positive reinforcement to those who promote their agenda, and as a result, those people do it over and over until they’re fully red-pilled. We can’t let our pride or egos get in the way of smart politics. We win by adopting a strategy of addition, not subtraction.
Aren’t there more important issues to focus on?
Yes and no. There are no shortage of people who would say that the ICE raids, cuts to healthcare and food assistance, the dismantling of the ACA, the abandonment of our climate goals, and the sustained attack on the judiciary are more important than the files related to the wrongdoing of a dead pedophile. Other people would say that holding the other people involved in the crimes of that dead pedophile accountable for their behavior is also extraordinarily important. The reality is that we shouldn’t dismiss either one. But let’s consider the reality of our media environment. It is very, very rare for a political issue to break through in a way that the Epstein story has (on Thursday night, it was even mentioned at the ESPYs). It’s even more rare that it redounds to the political benefit of Democrats and to the detriment of Trump and Republicans. In moments like these, it’s not only impossible but unwise to try and swim against the tide. The country is united in its opposition to Trump and Republicans on this issue. There will be many, many opportunities to discuss healthcare and immigration and the courts and everything else this administration is doing. But in this moment, take the win and join the chorus of voices – left, right, and center – in giving this White House its much deserved derision.
How should we talk about this?
The questions write themselves. Why did Trump lie to his supporters about releasing the Epstein files? What is he hiding? Is he in the files? Who is he protecting? Whatever he’s trying to keep under wraps must be bad enough to warrant his insistence that he would rather lose the support of his own votersthan humor their demands for the information (that he himself promised them) to be released. Trump’s supporters voted for him because they believed that – his own warts notwithstanding – he would be the one who could expose the systemic corruption that allows powerful, wealthy elites to get away with heinous crimes. Instead, they’re learning that not only does Trump have no intention of exposing that systemic corruption, he’s actually entrenching it. Put simply, if you plan on staking your reputation on exposing criminals, don’t act surprised when your reputation craters once you opt to protect them instead.
Thursday Madness From Jeff Tiedrich
oyal MAGA patriots, please stand by for a personal message of the utmost importance from Dear Leader. ready? here it is:
“they want to talk about the Epstein hoax. the sad part is, it’s people that are really doing the Democrats’ work. they’re stupid people.”
I hate to break it to you MAGAs, but this is Donny’s messaging now: that thing that actually happened, and that he encouraged you to believe in for years, is a now a hoax, and you’re an idiot for believing it.
ok, I lied. I fucking love breaking it to you that Dear Leader thinks you’re an idiot. how’s it feel, cultists, to find out that the guy you’ve devoted your life to just dropped you like a sack of potatoes?
oh look, it’s time for another Reading from the Book of Dumbfuck.
h joy, we’re in for a rehashing of every grudge and grievance. buckle in, here comes some turbulence.
The Radical Left Democrats have hit pay dirt, again! Just like with the FAKE and fully discredited Steele Dossier, the lying 51 “Intelligence” Agents, the Laptop from Hell, which the Dems swore had come from Russia (No, it came from Hunter Biden’s bathroom!), and even the Russia, Russia, Russia Scam itself, a totally fake and made up story used in order to hide Crooked Hillary Clinton’s big loss in the 2016 Presidential Election, these Scams and Hoaxes are all the Democrats are good at – It’s all they have – They are no good at governing, no good at policy, and no good at picking winning candidates.
fact check: [mimes jerk-off motions]
Joe Biden brought us out of a pandemic, and our economy recovered at a rate faster than almost any other country in the world.
now, here comes the juicy part.
Also, unlike Republicans, they stick together like glue. Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this “bullshit,” hook, line, and sinker. They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years. I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax. Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!
holy shit! Donny just actually called his cultists ‘weaklings,’ and said he doesn’t want their support any more!
Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
YES, YOU NOW HAVE MY FULL ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
look, we get it. all that fuckery Donny got caught dead to rights doing, he’s always been able to sell it to the cultists as a hoax, just by shouting hoax hoax hoax until it sticks.
that shit’s worked in the past, but it’s not working with the Epstein Files, because Donny has a serious problem: he’s taken his own credibility out to the gavel pit and noemed it until it was dead dead dead.
hey, remember when this happened?
remember when a bunch of left-wing commie influencers were invited to the Biden White House and were each given their own binder labeled “the Epstein Files, Phase 1”? that was—
[taps earpiece] hang on, I’m being told that these are MAGA influencers who were at the White House in February of this year, and those binders were handed to them by Donny’s own flunkies.
MAGA remembers that day. they ran around punching their fists in the air, and shouting about how at last, the truth will out! — and now the cultists are being told they’re ‘stupid weaklings’ for believing the thing Donny handed them and told them to believe.
and what about the literal hundreds of photos and videos of Donny and Jeffrey partying together?
are MAGAs now supposed to believe that all these images are part of some ‘deep state’ conspiracy?
let’s check in with the cultists, and see how they enjoy being called ‘stupid weaklings’ for believing ‘bullshit.’
Donald Trump just said he doesn’t want my support anymore because I care about the Epstein Files. Goodbye, Mr. President. You just lost me.”
oh dear — I don’t think they’re buying it.
“gaslight us harder daddy”
check out misshapen garden gnome Charlie Kirk. on Tuesday, Donny personally phoned Chuckers and begged him to shut the fuck up about Epstein. it worked…
…for about 24 hours. it turns out that even bizarre lawn ornaments hate being called stupid.
oh. huh.
over at MechaHitler’s Nazi Bar, the hashtag #trumppedofiles has been trending for days now.
so yeah, things are going just swimmingly right now for the Mad King.
oh, is it time to play Easy Questions, Easy Answers again?
[raises hand] wait, I know the answer to this! Alex, it’s because Donny’s a self-destructive imbecile.
as he’s done so many times in the past, Donny’s made things worse for himself. what he should have said was nothing — because let’s face it, the cultists are dumb as fuck, and they’re easily distracted. if Donny had played this right, the whole thing would have already burned itself out, and MAGA would have moved on to the next shiny object. but Donny can’t ever keep his rancid anus-mouth shut, and by calling his cultists stupid weaklings whose support he no longer wants, he’s once again shoved his dick into a hornet’s nest and clownfucked it into a frenzy.
good going, dumb-ass.
here’s another thing that happened yesterday. tell me, does this firing make Donny’s ass look guilty?
Maurene Comey was a lead prosecutor on the investigation and prosecution of Epstein and his former girlfriend and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell was convicted and is serving a 20-year sentence.
oh sure, let’s take the one person in the Department of Justice who knows all the dirt on Epstein, and make her job go fuckity-bye — right as interest in the Epstein Files is reaching a fever pitch. there’s nothing suspicious about the timing at all.
that Maurene is James Comey’s daughter is just icing on the cake.
I don’t know about you, but President Guilty McGuiltyguilty sure sounds like he’s guilty of something.
reporter: “President Trump, would you consider appointing a special counsel to investigate the Jeffrey Epstein investigation?”
Donny: “I have nothing to do with it.” [hurries the fuck away]
one thing is for certain: Donny would like to THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO ANY OTHER MATTER IN THE WORLD
“I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so. I’d like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them — You’ll see. It’s just better!”
it looks like Donny’s plan is to distract us with another round of Things That Never Happened The Most™.
Donny, come clean. were you speaking to Coca-Cola, or were you speaking to a bottle of Coca-Cola? is that bottle in the room with us right now?
it’s a legit question, because when NBC News contacted Coca-Cola for comment, they were all we’re putting the what in what now?
hey Gavin Newsom, are you distracted yet?
No Fucks To Give Newsom is my favorite Gavin Newsom.

Nothing Like That AT ALL…
Thursday Madness – Sanctus Cacas!
if ever there were a holy shit moment, we got one last night, when the three judges on the U.S. Court of International Trade were all ‘Taco Donny, put an end to this tariff bullshit right fucking now.’
I know, right? I’m shocked, too.
no, really — even Paul Krugman was all holy shit.
I googled it, Paul. in Latin, it’s ‘sanctus cacas.’
the court cockblocked Donny for a simple reason: presidents cannot levy taxes (which is what tariffs are, duh) — that’s the job of Congress.
it’s right there in that pesky little thing we call the Constitution.
Article I, Section 8 says that “The Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes …” Article I, Section 7 says that “All bills for raising [tax] revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives …”
Donny had been imposing his incoherent tariffs through a farcical misreading of a 1977 law that allows presidents to ‘regulate commerce’ during ‘national emergencies.’
to be fair, ‘the president is a fuckwit fueled by stupidity and spite’ is in fact a genuine national emergency — but not the kind that would allow Donny to ‘regulate commerce.’
so the Trade Court made the only logical move, which was to tell Dear Leader to piss straight up a rope.
of course, this whole episode should never have ended up in court. Congress could have ended all this trade war fuckery in a heartbeat — because Donny never had the authority to impose tariffs in the first place. Donny glommed that power illegally — and because no Republican wanted to stand up to Donny, and risk making the Boy King mad, they let him get away with it.
in fact, Congress has blocked every Democratic effort to restore sanity to American trade policy.
I have a question: how many Congressional Republicans made a fortune from trading off of Donny’s tariff incoherence?
Congresswoman Sporkfoot, might you have any idea?
crickets. I thought so.
this is the exact same bullshit we went through with Donny’s unconstitutional executive orders. EOs are not laws of the land — but they got treated as such, because Republicans just stood around with their hands in their pockets, and did fuck-all to stop it.
same deal with kidnapping migrants off the street and disappearing them into foreign slave-labor gulags, which Donny based off a farcical misreading of the Alien Enemies Act.
it took a court to put an end to Donny’s unconstitutional EOs. it took a court to put an end to (some) unconstitutional kidnappings — and now it’s a court that’s blocked Donny’s unconstitutional tariffs.
all because Congressional Republicans are fucking cowards who don’t want to rock the boat.
the Trade Court has given Donny ten days to comply. there’s no doubt that Donny will go blubbering all the way to the Supreme Court about it.
there’s also no doubt there’s a Category Five ketchupnado going on in the White House right now, but Nosferatu McGoebbels must have hidden Dear Leader’s phone — because as I’m sitting here writing this at 8am on Thursday morning, there’s nothing at all about tariffs on Donny’s Truth Social feed.
sanctus cacas!
all around, it was not a good day for Taco Donny. he found out about his new nickname in the most clownfuckingly hilarious way possible: from a reporter.
reporter: “Wall Street analysts have coined a new term called the ‘TACO trade.’ they’re saying Trump always chickens out on tariff threats, and that’s why markets are higher this week. what’s your response to that?”
Donny: “I kick out?”
reporter: “chicken out.”
Donny then launches into a two-minute-long whiny tirade during which he brags about all of his imaginary accomplishments, insists that changing his mind every other day is actually a strength, and culminates in—
“but don’t ever say what you said. that’s a nasty question. to me, that’s the nastiest question.”
oh noes, Dear Leader heard a nasty question. the horror.
boo fucking hoo. dry your eyes and grow the fuck up.
that Donny had to hear about his new nickname from a reporter is indicative of the fact-free bubble Donny lives in. his handlers have to keep him in the dark about every fucking thing, because they know the thin-skinned bastard can’t handle reality. that’s why, when four soldiers were killed in a training mission in March, he was all huh, what when asked about it by reporters. same deal with Signalgate. when reporters asked him about that, he didn’t even know what a group chat was.
don’t nobody upset the Boy King.
so of course no one in the White House was going to tell Donny that Wall Street is mocking the shit out of him. no one wants a ketchup bottle whipped at their head.
and because the internet never disappoints, I give you —
sanctus cacas!
a couple of days ago I joked that Donny thinks he’s on a mission from God.
at least, I thought I was joking. it turns out I wasn’t. here’s a thing our batshit president actually posted yesterday on his crappy app.
sanctus cacas!
get a grip, you delusional asshole.
here are your heroes of the day: the good people of Seward, Nebraska.
at a town hall in Seward, Republican Rep Mike Flood was bullshitting his way through a justification of cutting social programs, when the crowd grew tired of being lied to and drowned him out with a chant of “tax the rich!”

Wednesday Madness
From Jeff Tiedrich:
Bone Saw Arabia buys big boy preznit his own happy meal
scenes from Donny’s Middle East Griftapalooza
it’s just so fucking embarrassing to watch Mad King Donny represent America on the world stage. he’s monumentally stupid. he’s crass and uncouth, and his rancid anus-mouth has no filter — at any moment, he’s liable to blurt out random, inappropriate gibberish.
but above all, he’s utterly unaware of just how easily manipulated he is. flatter him, hand him a few shiny baubles, and this bottomless pit of neediness becomes putty in your hands — and all We the People can do is cringe as we watch this buffoon being led around by his nose.
Donny was in Saudi Arabia yesterday — and look what the Saudis did for our Big Boy President.
that’s right, Bone Saw Arabia built a custom-made rolling McDonalds for Donny — because god forbid this overgrown toddler endure an entire day without jamming a greasy wad of fat down his engorged gullet.
As the Saudis work to impress Trump during his trip to Riyadh this week, they’re focusing on even the smallest details—like his fondness for the Golden Arches—by setting up a custom-built mobile McDonald’s truck designed to support the presidential visit and the throng of journalists in tow.
how mortifying is it that our president can be bought off for a few burgers?
last time Donny visited Bone Saw Arabia, in 2017, they got him involved in some weird-ass sword dance.
and they let him put his freakishly-undersized fists on a glowing orb.
but this time? here’s your happy meal, fuckface. now give us what we want.
oh look, President Pudding Cup continues to prove he isn’t up to the rigors of his job.
check out this sleepy baby. he’s so plumb tuckered from his journey that he can barely keep his beady little eyes open.
wake up, Donny — Crown Prince Mohammad Bone Saw is talking.
let’s gif that shit for posterity’s sake.
this dilapidated fuckwit has now slept through cabinet meetings, campaign appearances, Pope Francis’ funeral, his own inauguration — and his own criminal trial.
can someone please get Sundowning Grandpa Befuddlepants a sippy-cup of warm milk, and tuck him into bed?
The 42-year-old Syrian leader has reportedly offered Mr Trump investment opportunities, including a Trump tower in Damascus.
now here’s a thing that happened on Tuesday. tell me if you think they might be related.
BREAKING: Trump announced lifting of sanctions on Syria
what’s America getting out of this arrangement? nothing, that’s what. Donny’s touring the Middle East so he can make personal deals to enrich himself, and the American public can go pound sand up their ass.
Donny’s in Qatar today, and we all know how they bought him off — with that vulgar airborne bordello.
listen to Donny explain why he needs this plane. it’s pure penis envy.Air Force One is just so tiny and flaccid compared to all the other big, manly planes.
“the plane that you’re in right now is almost forty years old. and when you land and you see Saudi Arabia and you see UAE and you see Qatar and you see— and they have these brand-new Boeing 747s, mostly. and you see ours next to it. this is like a totally different plane. it’s much smaller, much less impressive, as impressive as it is. and, you know, we’re the United States of America. I believe that we should have the most impressive plane … now some people say oh, you shouldn’t accepts gifts. my attitude is why shouldn’t I accept a gift?”
you shouldn’t accept a gift because it’s fucking wrong, you ignorant asshole. it’s specifically forbidden by the Constitution that you imagine somehow doesn’t apply to you.
but look at what’s eating away at Donny: all these Middle Eastern counties ruled over by despotic kings and princes have bigger planes than we do. oh, boo fucking hoo. cry me a river.
this delusional dipshit just doesn’t get it. he’s not royalty — no matter how hard he pretends. he’s a low-rent slumlord from Queens, New York who failed upwards forever until he finally stumbled ass-backwards into the Oval Office.
somehow he imagines that this entitles him to the world’s biggest airplane.
I guarantee that no other democratically-elected leader thinks twice about what they fly around in. it’s just not important. Emmanuel Macron doesn’t give a shit if his plane isn’t the biggest. neither does Mark Carney. neither does the Pope Fucking Leo, for that matter.
but Donny’s so broken-inside that he throws a shit-fit if he doesn’t get the most ice cream. I wish I were making this up.
It has emerged that the President has two scoops of ice cream with his chocolate cream pie while everyone else at the table has just one.
keep in mind that — once again — the American people are getting nothing out of this. Donny gets to keep the plane, and take it home with him after he leaves office — and that’s after hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars are spent making it secure enough to be used as Air Force One.
Converting a luxury jet gifted by Qatar to President Donald Trump into a replacement for Air Force One could potentially cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and it could take up two years to install the necessary security equipment, communications and defensive capabilities for it to be safely used by the commander in chief.
so the American people actually are getting less than nothing out of this “deal.” thanks a fucking lot, Donny.
hey, look who found his voice. look who’s speaking out against Dear Leader accepting four-hundred-million-dollars bribes. it’s the Esteemed Senator Fidel Cancun — the timid lickspittle whose gonads have been marinating in jar on a Motel-a-Lago shelf since 2016.
even Ted knows that accepting trojan-horse gifts from human-rights-abusing fiefdoms is just plain wrong.
“I’m not a fan of Qatar. I think they have a really disturbing pattern of funding theocratic lunatics who want to murder us, funding Hamas and Hezbollah, and that’s a real problem. I also think the plane poses significant espionage and surveillance problems.”
he’s not wrong.
fuck you, Donny, for making me agree with Ted Fucking Cruz.
ICE=Gestapo
This is appalling.
Bet also in a LOT of the videos I’m seeing the heavily armed fatigue wearing “agents” look a lot more likely Proud Boys & Magamilitia & NOT trained feds or cops.

Trump: ‘I run the country and the world’
President Trump shared his thoughts on how his two terms as president have differed, saying in a new interview with The Atlantic that this time around he’s leading “the country and the world.”
“The first time, I had two things to do — run the country and survive; I had all these crooked guys,” Trump said in the interview published Monday. “And the second time, I run the country and the world.”
And That Is The Definition Of A Sociopath
The Orange ???? Wants To Send Us All To The Cornfield
The Anthony Fremont Files
I keep seeing pundits —mostly on cable teevee— trying to read the tea leaves to understand what The Orange ????’s strategy is on, well, everything. They keep searching for some rational, unifying theory to explain all the chaos of the 4th Reich, and they are searching for some Rosetta Stone to translate his chaotic thoughts into coherent policy. Sane washing his inchoate brain farts is only empowering him. Pundits think that they are being wise, but instead they are enabling a madman.
Those panel shows will be the death of all of us.
Pudits: save your breath: there is no thought, no plan, no philosophical perspective. The Orange ???? doing it because he can and no one is stopping him, certainly not you. His end game is unquestioned and total authority in all domains (the economy, trade, immigration, culture, whatever else that there might be); he is Anthony Fremont.
MPS has been saying pretty much since the beginning of this site: Conservatives hate America, and no one hates it more that Hair Füror. He hates and fears this country. He hates the MAGA rubes who’ve sucked-up to him in the administration, and he hates all the elite institutions that have rejected and laughed at him; he hates and disrespects Possum Hollar for letting him squash them like insects, and he hates the Christfascists for blessing him; he hates the weak, the rich and the poor; he even hates Putin because Putin make him feel inferior.
Hair Füror is simple to understand in this light. Look to see who he is trying to dominate and ask yourself: Does he hate them? Is he afraid of them? The answer is always yes.
If there is one consistent thread in his return to the White House, it is The Orange ????’s deep and enduring hatred of everyone and everything out side of his thin orange skin. That’s it. That’s the Rosetta Stone.
