Trump Derangement Syndrome has morphed into something far more lethal — Trump Projection Disorder By Miranda Devine Democrats have lost their minds. This time last year, the conversation was about what is the acceptable number of apartment complexes in Colorado that we can tolerate being taken over by Venezuelan gangs of illegal migrants. Now the big issue is the president’s big, beautiful ballroom. The “No Kings” folk are melting down. In just two days last week, there were 10,000 comments on The Washington Post’s website railing against the ballroom, which is being built at a cost to the taxpayer of zero dollars. “I can’t wait for the day they hold Trump’s funeral in that gaudy ballroom,” was a typical “recommended” comment from someone calling herself CindyintheSuburbs. Donald Trump is living inside their heads. If you thought Trump Derangement Syndrome was bad in the president’s first term, you ain’t seen nothing yet. This time around, it’s morphed into something far more lethal. Like a wounded animal that’s been cornered, electorally challenged Democrats are desperate and dangerous. They make TDS look like a quaint affectation. In the spirit of “If you can’t beat him, join him,” they’re trying to imitate Trump, but they’re imitating a foul-mouthed cartoon villain version of a Hitlerian dictator that they have convinced themselves he is. TDS Redux has become Trump Projection Disorder. Everything they’ve accused him of being they’ve now become, Nazi tattoos and all. https://nypost.com/2025/10/26/opinion/miranda-devine-trump-derangement-syndrome-has-morphed-into-something-far-more-lethal-trump-projection-disorder/

Over the last 5 days, agencies terminated and descoped 97 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $2.3B and savings of $160M, including an $8.7M USAGM broadcasting contract for “FM and television broadcast operations in Iraq, Libya, and Chad” and a $19.5M HHS contract for “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion training”.

Lord knows I don't want Josh hurt, but on some scrambles I wish he would just take the five yards and slide rather than expose himself to those hits while he is throwing off balance.

Trump signs peace and trade deals ending conflict between Cambodia and Thailand — rips UN: ‘Didn’t get involved’ New York Post, by Steven Nelson President Trump blasted the United Nations for not being more involved in ending wars as he signed peace and trade deals Sunday with the leaders of Cambodia, Thailand and Malaysia — with the three nations pledging to boost US economic ties in exchange for lower tariffs. Trump, 79, said a peace accord formalizing the truce that he brokered in July may save “millions of lives” in the two Southeast Asian nations, which were represented by their prime ministers at the ceremony in the Malaysian capital. “Millions of people are alive today because of this peace treaty,” Trump declare https://nypost.com/2025/10/26/us-news/trump-signs-peace-and-trade-deals-ending-conflict-between-cambodia-and-thailand-rips-un-didnt-get-involved/

Senator Mark Kelly's Desperate Ploy: Boosting a Butchered Karoline Leavitt Clip with Zero Shame Admittedly, AI is sometimes hard to determine, but once a siting US Senator is made aware of a doctored video, maybe he should admit it and take it down. Apparently, Senator Mark Kelly is fine with signal boosting lies.

America Gets a Lecture on Christianity From Noted Biblical Scholar ... Jimmy Kimmel? One of the most entertaining things we come across often on social media is anti-theists lecturing Christians on what it means to be a good Christian. They have no idea what they're talking about, of course, but they mistakenly think they can use Christianity as a cudgel against people of faith. But a close second are the 'a la carte' Catholics, who think they can pick and choose what they believe and still call themselves Catholic. Two famous examples in Washington are Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi, who support abortion for any reason whatsoever (let alone at all) and want taxpayers to fund it up to and including the point of birth. Similarly, Jimmy Kimmel likes to tell everyone that he was raised Catholic and hilariously believes that means anything when we see him live his life not at all in accordance with the doctrine of the Catholic Church. Recently, he appeared on Ted Danson's podcast (Ted Danson has a podcast?) to lecture Christians and scold them that Jesus wouldn't approve of enforcing immigration law. Watch: We'd love to see Kimmel try to pull this tired, lame stunt with someone like Michael Knowles, where he would have to defend his position by citing Scripture. He never will, obviously, because he knows nothing about the Gospels or what Jesus taught. It just sounds good to him and makes him believe he is the good guy. https://twitchy.com/grateful-calvin/2025/10/24/blasphemer-maga-gets-a-lecture-on-christianity-from-noted-biblical-scholar-jimmy-kimmel-n2420821

There is evil in the world. There have been terrific steps forward toward saving the lives of the unborn since the Supreme Court overturned Roe Vs. Wade, but this is a heartbreaking setback. I know many people who were born (this) premature and are living productive lives.

You just can't make it up how corrupt this woman is.

Well, the list of those helping fund the new East Wing Ballroom is out, and I can tell you, it's not going to make Democrats feel better. According to The Hill, the funding is coming from all sorts of major corporations that they would've sworn were on their side, as well as a myriad of private donors. Google, Amazon, Apple, and even Microsoft are pitching in. The full list is as follows, according to The Hill: Altria Group Amazon Apple Booz Allen Hamilton Caterpillar Coinbase Comcast Corporation J. Pepe and Emilia Fanjul Hard Rock International Google HP Lockheed Martin Meta Platforms Micron Technology Microsoft NextEra Energy Palantir Technologies Ripple Reynolds American T-Mobile Tether America Union Pacific Railroad Adelson Family Foundation Stefan E. Brodie Betty Wold Johnson Foundation Charles and Marissa Cascarilla Edward and Shari Glazer Harold Hamm Benjamin Leon Jr. The Lutnick Family The Laura & Isaac Perlmutter Foundation Stephen A.

It's been wild watching Democrats freak out over Trump improving the White House at no cost to taxpayers for the past few days. We get it, they hate the guy and everything he does, but c'mon, adding a ballroom is a good thing. Heck, even the Clintons talked about how it would be a good thing several decades ago. But we suppose they need something to pretend is awful while they're trying to dodge the fact that they've shut down the government and blocked Republicans for trying to pay federal employees during the shutdown. Tim ... Sarah ... McBride jumped into the fray:

WaPo Headline on Senate Bill That Would Have Paid Federal Employees Avoids Mentioning Something Yesterday the Senate Democrats proved that they cared so much about service members and other federal employees that they blocked a separate bill that would have paid them while the Left continues to keep the CR from passing and reopening the federal government. However, the Washington Post's headline kind of made it everybody's fault: "The Senate"? Like, the entire Senate in unison? Seems like there's more to the story than that. https://twitchy.com/dougp/2025/10/24/wapo-headline-about-senate-bill-that-would-have-paid-federal-employees-avoids-mention-of-who-blocked-it-n2420819

No. No they don't. They are blinded.

Nothing says “working class” like attending a $75k/ year prep school.

"What you're asking Republicans to do when they control the White House, Senate and House is what the DEMOCRATS could NOT do when you controlled all 3 heads of government!" "The 3 year setup for the expiration of [Obamacare] credits was put in when *YOU* controlled the White House, House and Senate." "This is a setup of your OWN creation! NOW you want the Republicans to do something you DIDN'T do when you were in power?"

BRUTAL: The Look on Hakeem Jeffries Face When CNBC Called Out His BS About O-Care Subsidies Is Priceless We're a little surprised that Democrats continue to appear on certain CNBC shows because they have a couple of hosts who perform actual journalism during their interviews and don't just nod along in agreement while a Dem repeats bogus talking points. Recently Dem Sen. Mark Kelly tried to convince Joe Kernen that the federal government shutdown was the fault of Trump and the Republicans, and that didn't go well for the senator from Arizona. Next up we have Rep. Hakeem Jeffries trying to push the Dems' shutdown narrative on another CNBC host, and the House Minority Leader's spin about Obamacare subsidies got quickly torpedoed. Jeffries knew he'd been called out but continued to repeat platitudes in awkward response: https://twitchy.com/dougp/2025/10/24/the-look-on-hakeem-jeffries-face-when-cnbc-painted-him-into-a-corner-about-o-care-subsidies-is-priceless-n2420809
