Trump’s Scandals Multiply Like Roaches in the Dark
Epstein Fallout: The Signature Saga
The White House now says it would support a forensic review of Trump’s creepy “letter” to Epstein—complete with doodles and “secrets.” Trump calls it a hoax, but that’s what he says about everything. Accountability doesn’t come from his mouth—it comes from pressure.
Troops in D.C.: Because Dictators Love Soldiers in the Streets
Leaked National Guard documents show soldiers themselves feel “shame” about Trump’s federal takeover of D.C. police and the 2,300 troops stationed there. This isn’t about crime—D.C. crime is down. This is about optics, intimidation, and Trump flexing his tin-pot-dictator muscles.
Judge to Trump: Hands Off the Fed
A federal judge blocked Trump’s attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Turns out you can’t just treat independent institutions like your personal firing squad. Score one tiny win for democracy.
Gunboat Diplomacy in the Caribbean
On September 2, the U.S. Navy killed 11 people in a strike on a Venezuelan-linked vessel. The regime claims it’s “narcoterrorism.” Legal scholars call it “possibly illegal war crimes.” Who do you trust—experts or a guy who once suggested nuking hurricanes?

Resistance Kitty Says
When Trump starts calling everything a hoax, it usually means he’s guilty as sin. Stay loud, stay clawed, and let’s keep scratching until the whole rotten structure collapses.
