Jim, It seems to me that Devlin's name has come up before. Maybe in connection to Gottlieb perhaps? Steve Thomas

Donald Trump said that if he loses the election, it will be the Jews' fault. Do you know of any better way to put a target on somebody's back? My wife says he is the Second Coming... Of Adolph Hitler I am just speechless Steve Thomas

A claim by Donald Trump on Fox News that the crowd who attended the debate between himself and Vice President Kamala Harris "went absolutely crazy" when he was fact-checked led to both amusement and new questions about his mental decline on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Thursday. The big issue? There was no crowd. https://www.rawstory.com/trump-mental-fitness-2669235991/ Now is the time when we really, really, really need to question Donald Trump's obsession with crowd sizes.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/trump-says-will-visit-springfield-ohio-two-weeks-rcna171758 “Former President Donald Trump said at a rally Wednesday that he would travel to Springfield, Ohio, the focal point of unsubstantiated claims targeting Haitian migrants, "in the next two weeks." "I’m going to go there in the next two weeks. I’m going to Springfield, and I’m going to Aurora" in Colorado, Trump said at a rally in Uniondale, New York. "You may never see me again, but that’s OK. Got to do what I got to do," Trump added. "'Whatever happened to Trump?' 'Well, he never got out of Springfield.'" Well, you know what those Haitians are like. As long as Donald doesn't use the litter box that are in one of the schools, he should be alright. Steve Thomas

- Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AR) - "The Fed’s drastic rate cut is shamelessly political. Our nation’s central bank has no business moving rates this close to an election and is clearly trying to tip the balance in favor of Kamala Harris." Ummm... Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is a Republican who was appointed by Trump in 2018. He knows all that stuff. He needs to go back to proving how much he supports the military and military families by holding up hundreds of promotions. Steve Thomas

Trump Tower in Chicago ruled a Public Nuisance https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-tower-hotel-chicago-cook-county-sierra-club-river-cooling-heating-system-1955171 "A jury is set to decide how much a Trump hotel will have to pay for pumping millions of gallons of heated water into a Chicago river. The award is likely to run into many millions of dollars after Trump Tower in Chicago failed to install filters to stop fish from being sucked into its cooling system and also of pumping millions of gallons of heated water back into the Chicago river." "The hotel was built along the Chicago River. In 2018, the state of Illinois, Friends of the Chicago River and the Sierra Club sued Trump after a permit review revealed that Trump Tower was consuming more than 20 million gallons of river water per day to cool the building. Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul alleged in court documents that Trump ignored a requirement that he install a screen to prevent fish and other aquatic life from being sucked into the cooling pipes and killed."

'Very chilling': Alarming detail emerges about violent threats in Springfield by Kathleen Culliton September 17, 2024 https://www.rawstory.com/trump-springfield-threats/ “Wittenberg University president Dr. Michael Frandsen appeared on the cable news network Tuesday morning to discuss the violent threats that forced him to transition students to remote learning — and to share a fact that shocked anchor Wolf Blitzer.” "It's chilling to hear that students are being named in some of these threats," Blitzer said. "That's very chilling." “Frandsen said students are stunned by what is occurring in the Ohio town, which has seen 33 bomb threats, trooper patrols at 17 local schools, two elementary school evacuations and virtual learning implemented at two colleges, CNN reported.” Steve Thomas

Clay Barker, general counsel to Secretary of State Scott Schwab, said the Kansas office was on alert after staff were briefed Monday that Nebraska’s election office had received a package with white powder and a return address that referenced “US Traitor Elimination Army.” Steve Thomas

The Chinese eat ducks too. Where the hell do you think the term Peking Duck comes from? I think we should deport all the Chinese people too, and every other Asian person while we're at it, or as Attorney General, Michael Palmer put it, anyone with "lopsided faces, sloping brows, and misshapen features”. You remember the "Yellow Peril." https://aaww.org/yellow-peril-scapegoating/ From The Chinese Exclusion Case” (1889) "The exclusion of paupers, criminals, and persons afflicted with incurable diseases, for which statutes have been passed, is only an application of the same power to particular classes of persons, whose presence is deemed injurious or a source of danger to the country. As applied to them, there has never been any question as to the power to exclude them. The power is constantly exercised; its existence is involved in the right of selfpreservation." Sound familiar? Steve Thomas

Is Donald Trump our new Jefferson Davis? Paranoia feeds on paranoia. Hysteria feeds on hysteria. People in mobs behave differently than people as individuals. There have been 33 bomb threats phoned in against the schools in Springfield now. Is Trump really trying to start a race war? Steve Thomas

Trump has now set his sights on Charleroi, PA, a town about 30 miles south of Pittsburgh. he falsely claimed that immigrants in the borough were bankrupting residents by hundreds of thousands of dollars. Now, there are reports of a tent city in the Rite Aid parking lot, and people walking down the street carrying live chickens. Turmoil erupts in Pennsylvania town after Trump spreads false claims about Haitians there by Sarah K.

Donald Trump - “All rich, job creating people, that support Comrade Kamala Harris, you are STUPID.” "THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!" Goodbye Mr. Orange Pillsbury Dough Boy. It wasn't nice to know you. Steve Thomas

- Donald Trump - "Because that's what they're doing. She's ( Kamala Harris) already talking about bringing back the draft. She wants to bring back the draft, and draft your child, and put them in a war that should never have happened." We're in a war? How come nobody told me? Steve Thomas

It's interesting. Donald Trump, and his minions, have declared war on an entire town. It's one thing when you attack something nebulous like a race of people, or a gender of people. It's something entirely different when you start attacking infrastructure. It will be interesting to see who wins. David Jolly said that this was the week that Donald Trump lost the election. I can believe it. Steve Thomas

More bomb threats hit Springfield, Ohio, after Trump elevates false claims about Haitians https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/14/more-bomb-threats-hit-springfield-ohio-after-trump-elevates-false-claims-about-haitians "Two hospitals sent into lockdown, government buildings shut down and local schools evacuated." “Two hospitals in Springfield, Ohio, were sent into lockdown after bomb threats, police said Saturday, marking the fourth such case in as many days that appears linked to false claims circulating among the far right that Haitian immigrants there are eating domestic pets and wildlife. Saturday’s threats came even after the woman who started the rumors acknowledged to NBC News that they were unfounded and publicly apologized.” They wont be happy until they shut that town down. It's an interesting case study. How you can bring a city of 60.000 people to its knees. Hospitals, schools, government offices... Steve Thomas

Coming after Springfield, Ohio, all the childless cat ladies in America must be very, very afraid. Steve Thomas

William, You are absolutely right. Trump's threat of mass deportation of Hatian immigrants so that he can " send them back to Venezuela" is terrorism just for the sake of causing terror. There is no logic or political purpose. It's just terror for the sake of terror. The man must never be allowed to hold power again. Steve Thomas

When Trump dumps his half a million shares, or whatever it is, and he will, the price is going to plummet. Shares will only be worth pennies on rhe dollar. People stand to lose their life savings. Steve Thomas

You know, maybe this Springfield flopalooza happened when it did. Trump speaks and his supporters follow. It happened January 6th and it's happening again. Now the entire country can see what's in store for all of us if Trump wins. He can make stuff up of out of thin air and his rabid dogs will follow right along. Steve Thomas

People in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere, are getting pissed. - J.D. Vance - "In Springfield, Ohio, there has been a massive rise in communicable diseases, rent prices, car insurance rates, and crime," Vance wrote. "This is what happens when you drop 20,000 people into a small community. [Vice President] Kamala Harris's immigration policy aims to do this to every town in our country." People are eating your dogs and cats. Now they've introduced human sacrifice, voodoo and cannibalism. The elementary schools are being evacuated because of bomb threats. City Hall had to be evacuated. Neighbors are now afraid of each other. All this is happening in a small Midwestern Town because some asshole politicians want to exploit a situation for their own personal gain. People are calling for J.D. Vance to resign (he's a United States Senator for God's sake), and also withdraw from the Presidential race. nobody wants him anywhere near the White House. "No sanitizing this. @jdvance and @realDonaldTrump bear full responsibility. They’re promoters of terrorism; and they did it intentionally," wrote columnist, reporter, and former editor in chief of Crooked Media Brian Beutler." Steve Thomas

Wait. Wait. Did Donald Trump just get Swift boated? Steve Thomas

- Laura Loomer - “Haitian immigrants aren’t just eating cats and dogs. They eat HUMANS. Remember their leader? Known as “Barbeque”? Only Hannibal Lecter himself would want to bring more of them to the United States! Don’t let the media say that concerns about illegal immigration are “conspiracy theories”. These aren’t rumors. It’s a FACT. When you import the third world, you become the third world, and we won’t allow it here in America.” See? I told you. They can't help themselves. That's the problem with sensationalism. You have to keep upping the ante, or people get bored. Steve Thomas

Make no mistake about it. Look at the time stamp. This was posted after the City Hall and Elementary School in Springfield, Ohio had to be evacuated because of bomb threats. The man is beyond disgusting. Steve Thomas

A bomb threat was called into city hall in the Ohio town that has become an immigration flashpoint in Donald Trump's re-election campaign. Springfield city hall was evacuated Thursday around 8:30 a.m. after city officials said the bomb threat was made against "multiple facilities throughout" the town where Trump and his running mate have claimed that Haitian immigrants are stealing and eating pets, reported the Springfield News-Sun. Thank you Donald Trump, for making this all okay. Steve Thomas
