It varies…from BAD to WORSE, among one of his strongest blocs, as the midterms approach.

  Trump’s Approval Varies Across Farming States Looking at the top ten states in terms of farm count—Texas, Iowa, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota, Tennessee and California—Texas leads the group with approximately 229,000 farms, and 125 million acres operated, followed by Iowa with 86,200.  Oklahoma is second to Texas in terms of acreage, operating 32.9 million according to figures compiled by World Population Review. Civiqs estimates show Trump with a 47 percent approval rating in Oklahoma and 44 percent in Tennessee. In the other eight states in the comparison, disapproval equaled or exceeded approval.

Wow, FOX ‘News’ doing a fact check? What the hell’s going on here?

  Peter Doocy Telling Hannity He Has To Fact-Check Trump Is Kinda Delicious The Fox News reporter’s declaration to the Trump-devoted host sounded like a “whoa” moment, as he doubted Trump’s statements about his war in Iran.

AI is saying there’s a ‘Monster’ El Niño developing. We can only hope they’re right…

Image
  A strong or "huge" El Niño changes the atmospheric jet stream, typically shifting the storm track farther south across the United States. Because Colorado sits right on the boundary between the cooler, wetter southern storm track and the drier northern tier, the impacts vary significantly depending on where you are in the state.    Historically, strong El Niño events produce key pattern shifts across Colorado: 1. High-Impact Snowstorms on the Front Range & Eastern Plains During powerful El Niño winters, the jet stream dips low enough to pull subtropical moisture up into the Southwest. This configuration frequently generates slow-moving, low-pressure systems (upslope storms) that dump heavy, wet snow along the I-25 corridor, Palmer Divide, Denver metro, and Eastern Plains . 2. A Big Boost to Southern & Southwestern Mountains Mountain ranges that benefit from south/southwest flow—such as the San Juans (Durango, Telluride, Wolf Creek Pass) —see the strongest p...

Yup, just like Captain Bonespurs obliterated Iran’s nuclear program…two months before he attacked …to stop their nuclear program. I’m guessing even the gullible, ignorant MAGAts get tired of his bullshit…

  President Donald Trump said Michigan Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers "completely obliterated" Democrat opponent Abdul El-Sayed in Thursday night's debate, praising the former congressman in one of the nation's most closely watched Senate races.

The clowns at FOX are maintaining their Dems BAD—Pubs GOOD filter as the midterms approach, and they support the convicted, corrupt crook Ken Paxton

  Talarico disappearance has Dem volunteers worrying and Trump asking, 'What is going on?' The Democrat cited a flu diagnosis but leaked volunteer messages reveal concerns about lost momentum before Election Day “I was starting to feel under the weather a few days ago,” he told the audience. “Last night it got so bad that I went to the urgent care here in Dallas and I was diagnosed with the flu and so I’m running a fever and I’m at my most contagious right now. I guess I’ve been shaking too many hands on the campaign trail. And so I want to keep everybody safe and you know, if I was passing on this illness to somebody and got someone’s grandmother or someone’s baby sick, I couldn’t live with myself. So I thought the best thing to do was to put safety first and put everyone’s health first.”

Sooo sad, as a Boulder institution, The Dark Horse, beside the CU campus, is demolished. Lotta good memories/times there, BUT, the Big Money developers are moving on.

  BOULDER, Colo. — The World Famous Dark Horse restaurant and bar  is being torn down   following its   closure earlier this year. Crews have begun  demolishing  the Boulder institution to make way for a new mixed-use development. Located near the University of Colorado Boulder campus, the Dark Horse closed  in March after more than five decades of operation.)

I LOVE this one…so Trumpian.

$90 checks, $200 checks, complete with propaganda and his signature..and the promise of $5000, that’ll NEVER happen. He knows it’s his only chance..returning OUR money, in a bribe. Like breaking open Eric’s piggy bank and saying, ‘here’s your allowance,dummy.’

New home construction is one of the largest drivers of the US economy. Trump has KILLED it, he did solar and wind energy, in favor of Big Oil, his largest campaign contributor, and recipient of hundreds of billions of dollars in ‘extra’ profits from his Iran war.

  Mortgage rate at highest level in 3 years The Associated Press Mortgage rates marched higher for the seventh week in a row, driving the average long-term U.S. home loan rate to its highest level in nearly three years. The benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage climbed to 7.40% from 7.28% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday. One year ago, the average rate was 6.30%. The average rate is now the highest it’s been since Nov. 16, 2023, when it was at 7.44%. The housing market has been stuck in a rut this year in large part because of rising mortgage rates, which can add hundreds of dollars a month in costs for borrowers, limiting homebuyers’ purchasing power and prompting many to put off buying a home.

Welcome to the world of Trump and his Oligarch buddies.

AS IF we needed AI to tell us….

  ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE   Trump’s version of the truth betrayed by White House chatbot Since President Donald Trump displays a ferocious disdain for any suggestion that he could be wrong about anything, I hope he will not try to consult the AI fact-checker he has unleashed against himself. Last week, the White House unveiled  America.gov , a search tool it declared to be no less than “the unified digital front door to the Federal Government.”  This gizmo, a White House news release said, will usher in a “fundamentally different relationship between the people and the Federal Government, defined by simplicity, speed, accuracy, security, and respect for the individual.” BUT, it contradicts president Trump on most of his talking points, most notably, who won the 2020 election and if there’s widespread voter fraud in the US. After test-driving the chatbot, reporters were inclined to agree, finding it did a good job at debunking Trump’s oft-repeated falsehoods on topics...

Yup, you’ve done ‘far more’, but this is an award for peace, not chaos and corruption.

 And true, they don’t give it to people like you… for a DAMNED GOOD REASON, you lying, morally bankrupt dirtbag. "I don't know what their decision's going to be. They have a reputation for maybe not giving it to people like me. But whether I get it or not, I have done far more, and I think it would be a great discredit to them," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Oct. 7. 

Wow, at this rate the incompetent, corrupt jackass will be in single digits before long…and the jerk will call all the poll numbers FAKE, and give himself an A+.

 What a coincidence…30% like the arrogant ass and about 30% get their ‘news’ from Rupert’s Propaganda Machine. Who da thunk? Trump's approval rating dips to new second-term low in latest Pew poll AI Generated by USA TODAY President Donald Trump's approval rating fell to a new low of 30% in a Pew Research poll, the lowest of his second term and lower than the lows recorded for recent presidents, just weeks before the midterm elections. Key points: The Pew Research Center poll conducted from Sept. 28 to Oct. 4, 2026 surveyed 5,062 adults with a margin of error of 1.6 percentage points. Only 30% of Americans approved of Trump's handling of the presidency, the lowest approval rating of his second term. Trump's current approval rating is one point higher than his 29% rating on Jan. 12, 2021, at the end of his first term. Former President Joe Biden's lowest approval rating in July 2024 was 32%, two points higher than Trump's current rating. Former President Barack Oba...

In his latest attempt to ‘buy’ the election…..

  WASHINGTON – Nearly 21 million American seniors have an extra $90 in their bank accounts ‒ or coming their way ‒ in  President Donald Trump 's latest  giveaway of government funds  before the midterm election.

Oh Wow, I’m SHOCKED! One of the two architects/war criminals that started a war that killed and wounded soo many, including over 150 in a girl’s school, isn’t getting a Peace Prize?

 Well, he still has his gold soccer ball….and he has one he snatched from an actual winner.  What a joke! Donald Trump passed over for Nobel Peace Prize he's long coveted The decision denies Trump an award he has long coveted and frequently  griped about not receiving,  months after he ousted Venezuela’s leader in a military operation and launched a war against Iran, raising the price of oil over 50% and plunging  the world economy into chaos.

  Jeffrey Epstein's Death Shows Signs of 'Struggle,' Not Suicide, Forensic Pathologist Says After Full Autopsy Review Dr. Michael Freeman , a fellow of the Royal College of Pathologists and former chair of forensic and legal medicine at the Royal College of Physicians, obtained the entire file from Epstein's brother,  Mark . He stated that he is the first pathologist with forensic training to have examined all the evidence since the decision was made that Epstein had committed suicide. In a statement to Metro  before giving a lecture at University College London next month, he described that decision as problematic and said that Epstein's death was ‘unlike any case of suicidal hanging that had been recorded.’ Most notably, Dr. Freeman draws attention to what look like fingernail marks above the ligature line, consistent with Epstein attempting to pull the ligature away from his neck. According to him, the overall situation is "consistent with a struggle." ...

 Will have pics tomorrow, from my phone, of elk, cooling off in a lake, up to their bellies. Have never seen that before…in all my years. I think it was Smasher, (with his harem), the big bull that’s been attacking the cars, but not sure… Did all the Estes stuff…sampled and bought jerky and chocolate, sampled several distillery products, took pics of the elk, admired the Rocky Mountain scenery, souvenir shopped and had a great meal…in the cool mountain air. Then returned to another day of (near) record heat.

Duh…like the LYING piece of crap EVER made sense?

  ‘He’s Not Making Sense’: How Trump Has Alienated Voters for the G.O.P. Signs are emerging that dispirited Republican voters may stay home in November, bringing a Democratic surge without many conversions.  He only made sense if you realized he was/is a greedy, power hungry, narcissistic Pathological Liar…then, he made/makes perfect sense. If Democrats make big gains in the midterm elections in four weeks, it may not only be because their most loyal voters come out in force, or because their candidates have converted Republican voters to their cause. Instead, the Democrats’ dream blue wave could come from Republicans who sour on President Trump and stay home. It already has a name: the red undertow. Across the country, signs are emerging of an enthusiasm gap between Democrats and Republicans, and all the energy is on the Democratic side.

Again…and WHY Trump hates him…Jimmy Kimmel ‘Nailed It’.

“Three decades ago, a visionary named   Rupert Murdoch   asked a simple question. He asked, ‘What if the news was whatever I want it to be?’” Kimmel said. “And with nothing more than millions of dollars and a complete disregard for the America in which he wasn’t born, he turned that idea into what has become the number one reason you can’t talk to your relatives anymore.”   He also blasted  Fox News  for “making sure our old people get mad and stay mad,” then showed a series of clips featuring some of the right-wing network’s lowlights. (Will be available on YouTube, tomorrow). Thanks Jimmy, couldn’t have said it better myself.

The delusional, demented jackass lives in a fantasy world, where he’s intelligent, handsome and beloved….Just the opposite of reality.

  President   Donald Trump   declared himself "The Greatest" U.S. president last month, placing himself above Abraham Lincoln, George Washington and Franklin D. Roosevelt in his   personal ranking of American presidents . A  new YouGov poll  suggests most Americans aren't on the same page. Nearly half of respondents rated Trump a presidential "failure," making him the most negatively rated current or former president included in the survey. Presidents Lincoln, Washington and John F. Kennedy ranked among the poll's most admired presidents, while Trump and Presidents  Joe Biden  and Richard Nixon received the most negative assessments.

This GREEDY, corrupt jerk is buying stock in companies…and awarding them multibillion dollar contracts. You rightwingnuts see any problem with that? Didn’t think so….

Wow, Iran is doing pretty well…considering it’s military has been completely obliterated.

  The United States military has had 81 aircraft destroyed or damaged in the  war with Iran , a Congressional Research Service report released this week says. This is double the number, given by the Pentagon, from last month. The total cost of the war is much higher – at least $45 billion, sources have  told CNN . That figure doesn't include  damage to infrastructure  at US bases in the region, including those where some of the aircraft losses happened , that has been estimated at over ten billion.

If you have any doubt about what FOX/Megyn Kelly are all about…just look at their reaction to a college girl that was passed around to frat boys after they gave her massive amounts of alcohol…and Ketamine.

“I ’m just going to be honest, she’s not the most attractive gal,” said the star MAGA media personality. “She’s extremely beefy in her arms and her legs. There’s a whole video online talking about her cankles.” Sooo, that makes sexual assault OK in FOXWorld? In a bifurcated world where belief or disbelief in the very concept of sexual violence often falls along political lines, Kelly has, predictably, fallen in with fellow conservative ideologues.

I’ve had dogs, and cats, over the years, and love ‘em both. But they’re different.

Image
 Most dogs are your friend from day one, if you feed and pet them. Cats however, are a different breed. Some, will be sorta friendly, early in the relationship…but, it takes YEARS to develop a true relationship, where they trust and like you. They seem to have a primal survival instinct that doesn’t allow true trust. Maybe it’s just me, and maybe it’s the unique cats I’ve had, but it’s a relationship that takes a loooonng time to come to fruition. Finally, though, you reach that point when they are safe and comfortable and totally trusting….and you get a peek inside the kitty brain, which is a pretty cool place. Whatever…but I can understand why some people really like cats…and some really don’t. It’s all about a long term commitment, to an animal that doesn’t really care if you like them or not…but it’s worth it, in the long run. But that’s just me…and this is Furgus. Yup, Furgus, not Fergus. And the next one is Claire, who took a long time….

We KNOW he’s a LYING piece of shit, although only some of us care, but sometimes he goes over the edge, even for the Lyin King. But yet, the ignorant, gullible sheep just continue to swallow his crap, cuz that’s what they do.

  “We have 93 percent of the coastline, they have seven.  It never made sense to me that it was called the “Gulf of Mexico”.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYcv_Tw6TyM   As the one comment (so far) to this YouTube clip above documents – this is a preposterous Big Lie.  Even a cursory glance at a map of the Gulf of Mexico makes it instantly clear that the Mexican Gulf coastline is roughly equal in length to that of the American Gulf coastline.  The actual percentages vary by the granularity of the measurement methodology used (yes, I looked them up) – but by any measure it’s roughly “half and half”. Yes, this Big Lie is just one of thousands that Trump spews with impunity.  But what strikes me about this particular Big Lie is that  it’s so obviously disproven .   IF,  that is, you can find the Gulf of Mexico on a map – and  IF  you possess even the most rudimentary sense of visual spatial awareness.  This Trum...

Wow, just heard something that makes SO much sense.

 After the morons in Nebraska cheered Dotard for asking Iran to nuke LA and San Diego. Their new name? Alabraska… Makes perfect sense.

Sad memories for me, cuz my mother fell for his crap and sent a lot of money to this lying hypocrite. He later hooked up with Trump, cuz you know about ‘birds of a feather’.
