New polling just released this morning shows Dems leading even more than last week in some very surprising states. No one is even talking about Minnesota anymore because it actually never was close. It is the day before the long awaited 2026 mid-term elections and our world is about to vastly change.

Within a little more than one week the world powers are turning. The power of the people gathering together in overwhelming numbers are reclaiming the world power. Serbia and Brazil have already shut down authoritarian leaders in elections and now it's about to happen in Israel and the United States. The right wing in all of the world cannot stop their demise. It is happening RIGHT NOW.

It's hard to laugh because it is the president and his administration that is the joke. But we still gotta effing laugh, right? So let's! There's also a lot of very good and encouraging news going on. We will also talk about that. Let's get into it RIGHT NOW.

It's not enough that he ruined the economy and started a stupid forever war and ICE and DOGE and Hegseth, RFK Jr., Ken Paxton...etc. Now he's insisting on raising the temperature even higher by just generally acting like an idiot at his very small rallies all over the country. You know what happens when the temperature raises in the ocean, or maybe say over a huge blue wave in the ocean? The wave gets even bigger. We are seeing it happen and now we're only three weeks away. It's getting exciting!

Donald Trump is not helping the republicans right now at all. As a matter of fact, he's hurting them even worse than they've hurt themselves. Even corporate media is reporting this week that republicans are in full panic, freak out mode. Let's get into it!...

They are REALLY turning on the intensity on their fear campaign. Apocalypse, nuclear bombs...how much further can they go from there? Go inside yourself and ask, does Peter Thiel or Elon Musk have an interest in "saving humanity"? Or is their interest just saving their bank accounts? And Donald Trump can't blow up anything because he has no weapons. There's a UFO over Tehran! Oh my GAD! A lot this week!

trump's slip of the language made him say "oil prices will go down like a rocket." Yeah...we know what is really happening...HE and misadministration will go down like a rocket. Only Elon's rockets go down. Usually rockets go up. Trump is in deep dementia state. Leaks from top military command keep happening. After all the failures in the GOP's attempts of cheating in the upcoming mid-term elections, even trump himself seems to have just given up. Charges in ICE murders in Minneapolis? Much more...

Trump is just walking around spouting off proof that he is completely mentally gone and also proving he NEVER knew anything about anything. That is causing ALL the rats to begin jumping ship. Many resignations are occurring. They see what's coming in the midterm elections. DC Gand Prix - Covering up how badly the United States is losing the war with Iran under Secretary of War Crimes, Pete Kegbreath, importing bad beef, turning ranchers and farmers against trump, the world laughing at the United States "Operation Economic Outcast" bs... We gotta laugh, even though it's sad and could get nasty.
