Trump Once Again Defies Federal Judge Ruling on FEMA

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced on Friday that it is canceling all in-person training offered by its National Fire Academy. It’s a move that directly defies a federal judge’s order to resume spending.

The National Fire Academy provides free training for fire and emergency services personnel to ensure the country is prepared.

“I have no idea why anybody would think that the NFA programs would not align with the administration’s priorities,” senior fire adviser Chief Marc Bashoor of FireRescue1 told the Daily Beast in an email.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, wrote in a post on X: "Elon Musk's plan to cut the Social Security Administration's staff by 50 percent would cause 37,000 more Americans to die each year waiting to receive their disability benefits while the average wait time to collect these benefits would jump to 412 days. That is beyond unacceptable."



Bernie is going to need to cite actual sources for his fearmongering.

He hasn't figured out that manipulation by appealing to emotion doesn't work at all anymore in 2025.

We've built up an extreme tolerance to that after what the Democratic Party has done to the country and to the world.

Trumptards will say "fake news". https://www.selfemployed.com/news/musk-ignites-debate-over-social-secu

The official White House website proves we live in the stupidest timeline.

Trump’s fact check is "I was right! No one look it up, we already did and I was right!" Even when he's wrong, ESPECIALLY when he's wrong:

Yes, Biden Spent Millions on Transgender Animal Experiments
The White House | March 5, 2025
https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/03/yes-biden-spent-millions-o
n-transgender-animal-experiments
/

Last night, President Donald J. Trump highlighted many of the egregious examples of waste, fraud, and abuse funded by American taxpayers, including $8 million spent by the Biden Administration “for making mice transgender.”

The Fake News losers at CNN immediately tried to fact check it, but President Trump was right (as usual). https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/04/politics/fact-check-trump-address-congr
ess/index.html


FACT: Under the Biden Administration, the National Institutes of Health doled out millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded grants for institutions across the country to perform transgender experiments on mice.

• $455,000: “A Mouse Model to Test the Effects of Gender-affirming Hormone Therapy on HIV Vaccine-induced Immune Responses”

• $2,500,000: “Reproductive Consequences of Steroid Hormone Administration”
“These mice manifest defects in ovarian architecture and have altered folliculogenesis.”

• $299,940: “Gender-Affirming Testosterone Therapy on Breast Cancer Risk and Treatment Outcomes”
“We will compare the incidences and tumor specific survival in female mice (intact) and oophorectomized female mice receiving TT with their respective counterparts that do not receive TT.”

• $735,113: “Microbiome mediated effects of gender affirming hormone therapy in mice”

• $1,200,000: “Androgen effects on the reproductive neuroendocrine axis”
“Aim 2 utilizes transgenic mice to test whether male-level androgens acting via AR specifically in kisspeptin neurons are necessary and/or sufficient for androgen inhibition of in vivo LH pulse parameters, including pulse frequency, and the estrogen-induced LH surge.”

• $3,100,000: “Gonadal hormones as mediators of sex and gender influences in asthma”
“We will study the contributions of estrogens to HDM-induced asthma outcomes using male and female gonadectomized mice treated with estradiol…”

TOTAL: $8,290,053

This is a variation on the standard Trumptard reply -- "Fake News" -- to all information that contradicts their deeply held belief system.

No it's not. But it is two things.

1. It's another example of you quoting me and replying with something stupid and/or completely unrelated to what you quoted.

2. It's by known idiot and liar Paul Krugman.

Nobody cares about your opinions in 2025. You have nobody but yourself to blame for that.

And at least I have a belief system. You constantly contradict yourself everyday parroting the narrative because you have no core values or belief system other than "Orange Man Bad" and "Vote Blue, no matter who".

6ix, just like you, the Confederates could not understand, which led to the destruction of their property and their deaths. The Confederates did not think of themselves as evil, but that didn't save them.

How the Red Scare Reshaped American Politics

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2025/03/17/red-scare-clay-risen-boo
k-review


The mechanisms of the Red Scare, including congressional hearings and loyalty investigations, would not be especially hard to revive. Indeed, recent developments have indicated that they might be deployed with genuine glee. Already, the Trump Administration has started asking for lists—of federal workers who attended D.E.I. training, of F.B.I. agents who investigated January 6th cases, of scientists engaged in now suspect areas of work. Trump himself has openly announced his intention to deploy the Justice Department and the F.B.I. against his personal, political, and ideological enemies.

The history of the Red Scare suggests that it won’t take many firings, federal inquiries, or acts of public humiliation to frighten a whole lot of people. But it also offers some reason to think that such intimidation methods may not be quite as effective this time around. For starters, there is much less agreement about the Trump Administrations agenda than there was about Communism in its heyday. The Red Scare gained momentum because nearly everyone in American political life shared the same basic assumption: Communism is bad and poses an existential threat to the American way of life. Its hard to come up with any contemporary issue that would generate the same powerful consensus.

Generally speaking, we also have better protections for political speech and assembly than Americans had in the fifties. Indeed, some of those protections are legacies of the Red Scare. In 1957, as the anti-Communist furor was winding down, the Supreme Court issued a series of decisions limiting some of the most sweeping methods deployed against political dissenters, including parts of the Smith Act.

But to say that Trump won’t necessarily succeed in setting off a new Red Scare is not to say that he won’t try. And, in this sort of politics, the trying is part of the game. As long as the nation’s “cultural Marxists” feel vulnerable to random accusations or secret investigations, they’ll likely be more careful about what they do and say. As Roy Cohn once instructed a young Donald Trump, much can be accomplished by attacking first and dealing with the consequences later.

Yanno, your party has been in power for 22 of the past 34 years. (And I'd say 26, bc Trump's first term was stymied in a coordinated effort by Britain and our deep state).

You had your chance. You could have done a lot of good. Instead, you promoted offshoring and deindustrialization, blew up the budget, deluged banks with trillions of dollars, presided over record disparities in wealth, deliberately divided the nation with BLM/ ANTIFA/ DEI/ LGBTQRXYZ nonsense, opened the southern border, engaged in endless wars and regime changes, and presided over "crisis" after "crisis" in a naked power grab to remove the last of our Constitutional protections.

And after ALL THAT, and installing a brain dead President, you could have changed course and offered a less smelly alternative, but instead fronted Kamala Harris?

Really???

How stupid are you?

So, you left us with the unenviable task of rooting you and your transnational oligarchs out from government, as best we can, before tackling the next task, which is tackling our native oligarchy.

SECOND: Signym, do you see that signature of yours? "Word should be gotten to Nixon that if Thieu meets the same fate as Diem, the word will go out to the nations of the world that it may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal."- Henry Kissinger

I have told you for years that the signature was wrong. Finally, you changed it. I was testing you, Signym. You proved conclusively to me that you are robot, a hollow person, an inflatable doll full of hot air, trying to pass as human and failing.


Did it occur to you I was testing you too?
I'm changing it back again.


Feel free to spam call me like you used to. I know you will. When your world starts crumbling, you just can't help yourself.

It was inevitable you'd sink back into your old ways. The human spirit rises to heaven and the spirit of the beast sinks downward to the earth.
