Why I do these posts. This is three days of Joe My God that got away way from me. So why do I do these long news posts? Because I comb the Joe My God comment section for the best memes and snarkiest comments. It dawned on me I could post his news articles for those that want to read them. But three days is a lot to go throw and it is much easier just to quickly scan and snatch the comments rather than post them. So I need some inputs from everyone. Are these posts worth it? Or would you rather go to Joe My God yourselves. Or I can keep doing these. Up to you. Hugs

The Trump Mobile website recently scrubbed its “100% made in America” claim.
The Trump Golf Tracker estimates that the president’s golf trips have cost taxpayers some $110,600,000 so far in 2025. But that estimate, which was based on a 2019 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report on four golf trips during his first term, doesn’t even take into account the month of December.

The video was shared by Vice President JD Vance. FBI director Kash Patel said he is aware of the video and the FBI is investigating. The YouTuber says he is uncovering new fraud in Minnesota, but media outlets like KSTP reported more than a year ago about more than 62 investigations into Minnesota child care centers.
What this is really about is they are afraid Walz will run for office and win as he is so well liked. They are trying to gin up a fake scandal to Benghazi him like they did with Hillary Clinton. I posted yesterday how fake and full of lies / misinformation the “report” the YouTuber did was. In the article above this one you can see how the Republican Party had a hand in helping the right wing influencer to push a fake story. The state has been investigating these things for several years. Hugs
Can these people hear what comes out of their mouths? How nuts are they? Why are they relevant anymore? Hugs

The chart posted shows that overall drug deaths dropped between 2023 and 2024, when the Biden administration was in the White House.

$175 billion for a “golden dome” that experts doubt would actually work, but only $2 billion in humanitarian aid for the United Nations. It’s what Jesus would want.

The emails, which were made public as part of a newly unsealed judicial order, largely reflected communications about the case that Robert E. McGuire, the acting U.S. attorney in Nashville, had with members of his staff and with Aakash Singh, a top official in Mr. Blanche’s office. They raised serious questions about whether the Justice Department had misled Judge Waverly D. Crenshaw Jr., who is overseeing the case, by telling him that local prosecutors had acted alone in charging Mr. Abrego Garcia.

The civil probes are proceeding under the umbrella of the False Claims Act, which has traditionally been used to go after contractors who bill the government for work that was never performed or inflate the cost of services rendered.
The U.S. slashed its aid spending this year, and leading Western donors such as Germany also pared back assistance as they pivoted to increased defense spending, triggering a severe funding crunch for the United Nations.
U.N. data shows total U.S. humanitarian contributions to the U.N. fell to about $3.38 billion in 2025, equating to about 14.8% of the global sum. This was down sharply from $14.1 billion the prior year, and a peak of $17.2 billion in 2022.
The idea behind the legislation originated with the Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative Christian legal advocacy group that has gained prominence for its work to incorporate religion in public spaces.
West last appeared here for his bill that would create a database of abortion patients.
In 2024, we heard from West for his bill to ban Pride flags at public schools and government buildings.
He appeared here in 2023 for his bill that would make it a felony to perform drag in the view of minors. His bill called for a $20,000 fine and up to two years in prison.
West first appeared here in 2021 when Gov. Kevin Stitt signed his bill making it legal to run over protesters.
The tweet below refers to West’s attempt to pass this same bill earlier this year.
Last week Trump claimed that he was bringing down drug prices by 3000%.
Popolo is a Trump megadonor with business interests in the Netherlands. News about the removal of the displays first surfaced last month.
tRump’s attack on Colorado because they won’t bow to the whim of the tyrant. His withholding money is illegal but no republican will stand up to the demented king.
In the past two week, Trump denied FEMA relief for Colorado and ordered the dismantling of the nation’s premier climate research facility.

Hi Bruce. What I noticed reading the article is that the company selling the tRump phone is also selling a refurbished iPhone 15 for $629 but a new iPhone 16 from Apple is only $699. Everything with tRump is a scam or rip off. Do you like these Joe My God round up posts? Or is it easier for you to go to Joes site yourself? Hugs

Hi Scottie. I seldom visit Joe My God because he mostly writes about US domestic issues and personalities I am unfamiliar with. Occasionally I’ll see a headline that has a more universal interest, and I will follow up on those. So maybe I’m not one you should be asking.

Hi Barry. Thank you for taking the time to reply anyway. I do wonder if it is something people like or enjoy. It takes a lot of time to do. I had hoped more people would answer. Hugs

BTW: I’m guessing you are embedding the Joe My God posts within your blog post. I see a grey rectangle which when I hover the mouse over it reveals “www.joemygod.com refused to connect.” So those don’t work anyway. However I can click on the text link which will take me to the http://www.joemygod.com website where I’m greeted with a Cloudflare “Verify you are human” challenge every time. These Cloudflare challenges are becoming so irritatingly frequent that I usually don’t bother to respond anymore. I’ll look elsewhere instead. Not your fault Scottie, but I no longer have sympathy for challenges – especially those by Cloudflare, which in my view are way over the top. There are alternative means of ensuring a ‘safe’ connection.

Hi Barry. That is so weird. I know Joe has to have high security and pays a company to provide it for his site as he is constantly attacked with the goal of taking his site down by different groups.
This is the second time your location has not let links / pictures I post show. I wonder why? I am not sure what to do about it. I stopped using the political cartoon site that wouldn’t display for you. I don’t get the Cloudflare thing when I go to his site but I have heard others complain about it. Thanks for letting me know. At least the links are there. I wonder if it is everyone overseas or just some countries? Well you are far more IT savvy than me so if anyone can understand it that would be you. I really don’t know how to place the links on WordPress any differently than embed them. I just past the link and it shows the blurb for the story. Best wishes.

It’s a case of geo-blocking. I don’t usually use a VPN but I thought I would try one to see if it made a difference. It does, but only if I use a US based VPN server. With the VPN on, I can view the embedded links inside your post and the text links disappear. Interestingly, with the VPN enabled some other site are blocked, whereas they not when the VPN is not being used – I presume on the assumption that if you are hiding behind a VPN you’re activity is suspicious.
As an I.T. engineer up until July 1999 I once knew about as much as anyone on the ins and outs out the internet, but in those days it was more about resilience of networks – malicious attacks were few and far between and easily thwarted. How the world and the internet have changed in the two and a half decades since.

Hi Barry. Thank you for checking it out. You are light years ahead of what I was taught to do. I do wish I had been offered the choice of something like data manager or what ever companies used to monitor their networks, but those were state sponcered courses and I seen what the 50 plus year olds in my own class they had to take first were like. They were clueless and only their to get their unemployment check. I was the only person who paid the entire $3,000.00 out of pocket. But the sad thing was our instructor was a 24 year old and I had to explain some things to him. So I got nothing except a small fine computer tool kit I have kept all these years.
So if I understand you correctly there is nothing I can do to change the situation if I keep doing these posts. I am sorry friend, I really wanted a way you and others in places where the magic algorithm did not block the posts. Thanks for checking and explaining. I guess as you are getting the links at least and you don’t read much of Joe My God anyway that is the best I can do? Let me know if you have an idea how I could do better to get you and those in places that the algorithm don’t want to share them with can see them. Thanks. Best wishes.

It’s a minefield these days – much of which can be put down to various attempts to mitigate malicious harm that has become endemic on the internet. There is very little any of us can do apart from treading carefully. If I use a VPN to circumvent blocking on an American site, for example, then some NZ sites become unavailable due to copyright protections. Sites such as TVNZ+, which is my streaming platform of choice stops working as does NZ MetService that provides weather forecasting. Some YouTube channels only work via a VPN, and then some only if the VPN server is located in specific countries, While other channels work only if I don’t use any VPN.
At best it’s a balancing act, and it’s up to each of us to decide what that balance should be. For myself, I avoid using a VPN because I believe one should respect the copyright of those who provide content. For the most part, I use a VPN only where I don’t think copyright is a factor in why I can’t access a site directly, and the blocking is due to security measures..
