It’s Wednesday…

I’ll be using this spot above his ‘new’ daily fresh hell posts to highlight prior installments, with a focus on the sitting fuckstick’s ongoing attempts to normalize using military personnel against U.S. citizens.

President Shitshow’s public schedule for…

10/01/2025:

Press Barbie is rolling out today to spin the shutdown, pointing her manicured finger at Democrats for supposedly crashing the government just to hand out healthcare to illegal aliens. It’s the usual performance: cheap lies dressed up like a pageant queen

A preview:

One image comes from Senate bill S.2882, which would undo a provision in H.R.1—the big, beautiful bill of bullshit so toxic that the White House now tries to rebrand it as the Working Families Tax Cut shared in the second image.

The GOP’s framing is that Democrats want to let some migrants get Medicaid—something already allowed. Democrats aren’t trying to give Medicaid or ACA marketplace access to illegal aliens—that’s just the scarecrow Republicans drag out to distract from the actual policy.

I asked Grok (Musk’s AI) if the tweet deserved a community note.

What does Grok say would happen if S.2882 was passed?

From the Supreme Court:


Ted Cruz…

Is it real?

It is real.

09/30/2025 (cued to his remarks):

Cruz: We should have bipartisan agreement, and I think that’s a great idea. We should all come together and say let’s stop murders. Let’s come together and say let’s stop rape. Let’s come together and say let’s stop attacks on pedophiles. [not in the clip added for further context] Look at what happened when the National Guard went to DC: robberies fell by 57%, and homicides also decreased.

His spokesperson told Chron he added a stray word:

Seems like a really weird “stray” word to add given the context of his other words…


The ADP released their jobs data for September.

Private payrolls saw their biggest decline in 2½ years during September, a further sign of labor market weakening that compounds the data blackout accompanying the U.S. government shutdown.

Companies shed a seasonally adjusted 32,000 jobs during the month, the biggest slide since March 2023, payrolls processing firm ADP reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for an increase of 45,000.

In addition to the drop in September, the August payrolls number was revised to a loss of 3,000 from an initially reported increase of 54,000.

Reminder: The ADP is not government data, it is just a private payroll company that collects data on private sector jobs.

Since, the Republicans decided they were unable to use the Nuclear Option; I’ve googled this, asked Grok, and checked with ChatGPT: Yes, Republicans could go nuclear on the CR. The risks are the same as always, the D’s could do the same thing in return once they have the majority back.

Anyhoo, since the R’s have decided they’d rather shutdown the government than allow the D’s to negotiate a bipartisan CR that allows both parties to kick the can down the road, we will not be getting our Jobs Report on Friday.

We are being governed by toddlers with too much power and a media that honestly is too shocked and awe’d to cover those toddlers correctly.
