“Trump Sues Fox News Owner” – MAGA Madness Weekly (Jul 20, 2025)

Wall Street Journal, a conservative outlet – July 17th

The publication of the letter this past week, see above, means that he has now done his usual thing – he is suing the owner of the WSJ over this 100% accurate report of his bawdy letter to Epstein. As I’m sure you are aware, Murdock who owns the WSJ also owns Fox News.

As we all now know, within this letter he tells Epstein that they have “certain things in common“. Well yes, you and I have known this about him from day 1, MAGA are simply catching up.

The WSJ also knows that he has lawyers on speed dial. This will have already gamed it all out and are ready. When they reached out for comment prior to publication on Tuesday night he told them that if they publish he will sue, so they will have made damn certain that they can prove that it is real. He might huff and puff and even have started a lawsuit, but it is all performative, he will not take it up the the point of a legal reveal – “discovery”.

Now we also know why he has been screaming that all the Epstein stuff was a giant hoax and fake. He was desperately trying to get ahead of this because he knew it was about to drop.

So what happens now inside the MAGAverse?

Every MAGA who reads this birthday note will either … 1) agree it’s real—it is—and understand why Trump is losing his mind over its incriminating language, or … 2) try to convince everyone it’s fake because they of they admit that it is real, then they need to come to terms with him being a rapist and sexual assaulter.

The party line will be something akin to this, “Biden doctored the Epstein files to incriminate Trump“, but then apparently for some weird reason did not release these doctored files.

That is perhaps summed up by this rather famous quote …

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. –George Orwell, 1984

Clay Jones – “The guy who’s endorsed pedophiles claims he’d never send a birthday letter to one

Political cartoonist Chris Britt nails it beautifully with this one …

Since we are on the topic of Epstein, let’s also do a quick catchup of some of the other stuff related to this from the past week.

Do you remember that official video to “prove” Epstein killed himself from the deep ancient past (last week) that had a missing minute. It turns out that it is not just one missing minute, Wired have now discovered that 3 minutes have been edited out …

GOP also confirmed this past week that GOP means “Guardians Of Pedophiles” after blocking a request to release in committee …

… and then when another attempt was then made, that was blocked by every single Republican…

… and so this was the headline…

  • When every single Republican votes to keep the Epstein files hidden, that’s not party loyalty, that’s moral failure. You don’t block justice unless you’re scared of what it will reveal. The question now is, who are they protecting?

It is perhaps also important to make the blindingly obvious observation – now that we know Trump and his crew doctored the Epstein video, we can’t possibly trust that anything they eventually release will be all they actually have and will not have been doctored?

It is wholly reasonable to assume that documents are being *burned and shredded* right now.

Every moment leading up to the release of “everything” is a moment that Trump goons at the DOJ and FBI spent destroying any evidence that didn’t center Democrats.

So what else has been happening this past week?

Oh come now, as always you need not even ponder that, as always, a continuous torrent of “utter lunacy blended with raw stupidity” is the new normal.

One More Epstein Update

Epstein and Trump were best buddies and a very long time.

NYT out with a piece on Epstein and Trump’s friendship, including this memorable quote: “I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It’s even said he likes beautiful women as much as I do, many of them are on the younger side.www.nytimes.com/2025/07/19/u…

Distractions – Russiagate was all a hoax

As is to be expected … Distractions incoming …

  • The deeply weird thing about this latest Obama stunt is this – Remember that ruling that Dear Leader purchased from SCOTUS that entitles POTUS to do whatever the hell he wants … well guess what, that also applies to Obama, and Biden. However, Obama does not need immunity, because this is just totally bogus BS.

FYI, the source for the above Obama Russia claim comes via Tulsi Gabbard (R-Moscow).

She now tries to distract from the Epstein cover-up by accusing Obama of “treason” over Russiagate (which was never a hoax), maybe some outlets could mention her disturbing ties to Russia, who called her “our girlfriend” on state TV? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a…

MAGA are being played by Tulsi, and while some can see it, MAGA can’t, they are just too stupid to be able to …

So was it all a hoax, or did Russia really attempt to interfere in the 2016 election?

The conclusion reached by the Senate Intel Committee, led at the time by a certain future secretary of state Marco Rubio, concluded it was all real, the Russians really did indeed attempt to interfere in the 2016 election, they got all the evidence that confirmed it. The details are all in the official report: www.intelligence.senate.gov/wp-content/u…

One More Thing – What was this about?

There are a couple of media reports regarding a meeting that took place last Tuesday between J.D. Vance, Rupert & Lachlan Murdoch, and some Fox News executives. It was a private closed-door meeting that was held in Montana. JD Vance flew out, was here for a few hours then flew back to DC.

The fact this this happened is verified by multiple sources, and the timing just before the Murdock owned WSJ went nuclear on Wed is most probably not a coincidence – the details of what was communicated in that Tues meeting are under wraps.

Very Blatant Corruption

Once again we can see the corruption, the very clear evidence of market manipulation and insider trading that is taking place.

SCOTUS Corruption

An excellent quote from one of the few remaining Justices who have not been bought …

Tariffs = Taxes

It is all tax that we pay …

Economists warned that Donald Trump’s tariffs would lead to price increases and inflation. But Trump insisted that China would pay. Just like he said Mexico would pay for the wall. But the price increases have started. Only Trump and MAGA morons will deny it …

Multiple layers of Lunacy and utter incompetence

Memphis-based xAI’s Grok is getting incorporated into our government days after turning hard into vicious antisemitism …

  • We are going to have to rebuild literally everything from the ground up, because starting from scratch will probably be quicker than having to clean up their shit.

What idiot appointed Jerome Powell?”, says the guy who appointed Jerome Powell…

  • If he wishes to discuss IQ then a rather fascinating observation is that if you add Trump’s IQ to Obama’s IQ, you get a number that is rather close to Obama’s IQ

Here comes inflation …

Here comes the Donald Trump Crypto Scam Enabling Act …

  • Money laundering, bribes, tax evasion, whores, guns, drugs all in secret … and … lots of hidden grifting by Trump.

Here comes 18th century mercantilism …

Moses Johnson’s “Christian Values” = Lying on steroids to support the fraudster and sexual assaulter …

There is a proposed EO to ban “Woke AI”, but “Hitler AI” is just fine …

His crass stupidity continues to be there on open display for all to see …

Oh, and let’s not forget that the campaign to utterly obliterate the tourism industry continues. This past week, we got this …

ICE Gestapo updates

ICE jailed Irish Tourist for months – visiting his girlfriend overstayed his visa by 3 days for a health issue… ended up in ICE detention for over 100 days. Clear message to all foreign tourists is a very loud “Fuck Off”. They are listening and acting on that guidance …

  • Link to Irish Examiner article – If you read the article it describes in detail the utterly abusive conditions he was held in. … “The facility also gave him a pair of used, ripped underwear with brown stains. Some jumpsuits appeared to have bloodstains and holes, he added.He was often freezing and was given only a thin blanket. The food was “disgusting slop”, including some kind of mysterious meat that at times appeared to have chunks of bones and other inedible items mixed in, he said. He was frequently hungry.

Undocumented immigrants can’t enroll in Medicaid. They can only ever access it temporarily, when they need lifesaving medical care. This only makes people afraid to access the medical care they’re legally allowed to receive. But Trump doesn’t care. His only goal is to sow fear …

The nuttier right-wing religious fanatics within the MAGA cult are as always doing their thing, and so here are a few samples from the past week …

Weirdest of the Weird

So this happened …

  • Daily Beast (Mon July 14): Link to article reporting this is here
  • Quote: Chelsea’s captain also explained that Trump had ditched the protocol to stay in the spotlight. “They told me that he was going to present the trophy and then exit the stage, and I thought that he was going to exit the stage, but he wanted to stay,” James added, according to PA Media.
  • WHY would an American president be given the world cup trophy that was won by another country? I might understand if the US won it, but Chelsea isn’t a US team. Just bizarre.
  • You know the trophy is going to end up in a box in a bathroom at Mar-a-lago
  • Chelsea had to photo-shop him out of the team picture.

After reading last week’s posting I bet you were thinking that he can’t become a more despicable person. Now here he is proving that thought to be ever so wrong.

Dennis Goris

Oh, and speaking of despicable people, Nick Fuentes declares that “in this house, Adolf Hitler is a hero”: “In this house, we are going to put some respect on Hitler’s name.”

  • I think I’ll take a hard pass on popping into Nick’s house.

Even More Political Cartoons from the past week

Rob Rogers – “Trump’s latest act as Dear Leader of Congress was to push through legislation that pulls back spending that was already approved, including funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Media Sane-washing of Tyranny

The end the Colbert …

  • CBS claims it was a financial decision to cancel the highest rated show … I call BS on that claim, as do many others.
  • These shows often do better journalism than the media -and- they tell truth in a way that makes us laugh.
  • I’d love to see Netflix or similar pick it up.

Dennis Goris

NPR and PBS are being greatly impacted …

The end of PBS is summed up nicely by Chris Britt

  • Actually, the good news for Sesame Street is that Netflix is picking them up.
