It’s Thursday…

President Shitshow’s public schedule for…

01/29/2026:

I’d hoped the cult cabinet’s taxpayer-funded love fest would happen after this post went live, but alas. Odds are we’ll have clips before it’s even up.

You’ll be shocked to discover that the Puddle had yet another meltdown on his social media site, “Lies Social.” Yesterday alone, his account spit out roughly 39 posts in a single hour. The spiral continued Thursday, with 29 more in just a couple of hours.

I have 68 total, CNN’s Jake Tapper has 60:

Obviously, we’re not cataloging the entire meltdown. I just want to highlight a few choice posts.

The Highlights

Confirms that DNI Gabbard aka the Russia Asset was present during the FBI operation in Fulton county GA.

@5:58 AM:

The FBI went down to GA looking for the election steal.

The FBI raid comes a week after Puddle told the world stage in Davos that the 2020 election was rigged and that “people would soon be prosecuted”.

Puddle said:

The United States is treated very unfairly by NATO; I want to tell you that. And when you think about it, nobody can dispute it. We give so much and we get so little in return. And I’ve been a critic of NATO for many years and yet I’ve done more to help NATO than any other president by far — than any other person.

You wouldn’t have NATO if I didn’t get involved in my first term. The war with Ukraine is an example. We are thousands of miles away, separated by a giant ocean. It’s a war that should have never started. And it wouldn’t have started if the 2020 U.S. presidential election weren’t rigged. It was a rigged election.

Everybody now knows that. They found out. People will soon be prosecuted for what they did. It’s probably breaking news, but it should be. It was a rigged election. You can’t have rigged elections. You need strong borders, strong elections, and ideally a good press. I always say it: strong borders, strong elections, free, fair elections, and a fair media.

It was a rigged election. You can’t have rigged elections. You need strong borders, strong elections, and ideally a good press. I always say it: strong borders, strong elections, free, fair elections, and a fair media.

The media is terrible. It’s very crooked. It’s very biased, terrible. But someday it’ll straighten out because it’s losing all credibility. Think of it.

Roll Call. 01/21/2026.

Spreads Misinformation; it might be disinformation; it might be he just lies. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@9:59 PM:

I fact checked this last night in a couple of minutes.

I’m sharing CNN’s Daniel Dale’s fact-check that he posted this morning.

Show more =’s and Walmart tells me this morning that the mass-closure claim is fake, in fact that it just opened a new store in California last month; Gov. Newsom’s office posted a tweet expressing disbelief at this nonsense and an even wilder inaccurate conspiracy theory Trump shared about Newsom during the posting blitz. Newsom’s office wrote, “We cannot believe we have to say any of this out loud. We cannot believe this is real life. And we truly cannot believe this man has the nuclear codes.”

Show more =’s Another features an AI-generated video in which a robot accuses Governor Newsom of running a drug-money laundering scheme out of the Governor’s Office with the Mexican cartel. Just to clarify: — Walmart’s 303 stores in California are open. — The AI robot is lying. Governor Newsom is not Pablo Escobar. We cannot believe we have to say any of this out loud. We cannot believe this is real life. And we truly cannot believe this man has the nuclear codes. Deep breaths, everyone. Three more years.

The last highlight before I leap into the started late cult cabinet meeting…

The text:

Jerome “Too Late” Powell again refused to cut interest rates, even though he has absolutely no reason to keep them so high. He is hurting our Country, and its National Security. We should have a substantially lower rate now that even this moron admits inflation is no longer a problem or threat. He is costing America Hundreds of Billions of Dollar a year in totally unnecessary and uncalled for INTEREST EXPENSE. Because of the vast amounts of money flowing into our Country because of Tariffs, we should be paying the LOWEST INTEREST RATE OF ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. Most of these countries are low interest rate paying cash machines, thought of as elegant, solid, and prime, only because the U.S.A. allows them to be. The Tariffs being charged to them, while bringing in $BILLIONS to us, still allows most of them to have a significant trade surplus, though much smaller, with our beautiful, formerly abused Country. In other words, I have been very nice, kind, and gentle to countries all over the World. With a mere flip of the pen, $BILLIONS more would come into the U.S.A., and these countries would have to go back to making money the old fashioned way, not on the back of America. I hope they all appreciate, although many don’t, what our great Country has done for them. The Fed should substantially lower interest rates, NOW! Tariffs have made America strong and powerful again, far stronger and more powerful than any other Nation. Commensurate with this strength, both financial and otherwise, WE SHOULD BE PAYING LOWER INTEREST RATES THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Fuck Trump. Fuck ICE.

The Fed as expected did not move on the interest rate. This was baked into the market cake for the last month. The only person still pushing for lower interest rates is the giant Orange Puddle that has zero clue how economics works.

I would also like to remind Puddle that Powell alone doesn’t move the interest rate there is a voting body; Voting for the monetary policy action were Jerome H. Powell, Chair; John C. Williams, Vice Chair; Michael S. Barr; Michelle W. Bowman; Lisa D. Cook; Beth M. Hammack; Philip N. Jefferson; Neel Kashkari; Lorie K. Logan; and Anna Paulson. Voting against this action were Stephen I. Miran and Christopher J. Waller, who preferred to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 1/4 percentage point at this meeting.

Cult Cabinet Meeting

Trump accounts:

The Trump Accounts were established in H.R.1 or the terribly named One Big Beautiful Bill.

The plot program:

Vanguard says about the accounts:

Trump accounts will be available in 2026. Contributions, however, can’t be made before July 4, 2026.

What are the withdrawal rules?

Generally, no withdrawals are allowed from these accounts during the “growth period”—basically, until the year the child turns 18. Beginning in the year the child turns 18, the account is subject to most of the same contribution and withdrawal rules that govern traditional IRAs.

There is one key difference: If an investor keeps the Trump account separate from other IRAs upon turning 18, it won’t be combined with other IRAs when calculating taxes and penalties on withdrawals. This may provide investors with beneficial financial planning flexibility in deciding which type of account to use for withdrawals or Roth IRA conversions. 

Vanguard.

Chase Bank/JP Morgan says of the accounts:

He confirms he finds the cult cabinet meetings boring.

Is delusional.

Show more =’s The economy is doing amazingly well. I wish the press would report it.”

Tells us the tariffs could be steeper, he’s being nice.

Hear that America! We could be paying even more tariffs.

Okay.

I’m done.
