The great thing about this post is some maga who watch the channel wrote in to tell Belle she was wrong on tariffs. The tone and the fact they are a tRump supporter made it clear they thought women shouldn’t be talking about money and foreign policy issues. She explains why it is important to read more than the headlines. Hugs

UH OH! Trump Supporters INSTANTLY REGRET Their Vote
Tomorrow I may be offline for a lot of the day.
My plan for tomorrow is to get one of the old barely running laptops out, and put all my saved tabs I have open with the pages that people made comments on it so I don’t lose them. Then I am going to take both computers offline and dump them. I will then dump both computers. See you then. Hugs
Trump names Stephen Miller to be deputy chief of policy in new administration

Please remember what Stephen Miller wants to do. He is a white supremacy Nazi with Jewish heritage. His own family immigrated here. But I am sure they will be safe from the purge as was Melania and her parents. Remember he was behind the separation of children from their parents who cross the border. The parents were deported while the children were given to Christian adoption agencies to sell. Many have never been found. He was behind the lawsuits that wanted any and all DEI programs stopped in the collages and private business claim it displaced white men for every job given to a woman or brown / black person. Remember he wants to end both birthright citizenship and deport people born to undocumented people even though they are US citizen. Remember that during tRump’s first term many non-white people were deported even though they were citizens and had a hard fight getting back into the US. It is back to carry your papers if you are not white and even then it is going to be hard for many. Hugs.

Updated 12:05 PM EST, November 11, 2024President-elect Donald Trump is naming longtime adviser Stephen Miller, an immigration hard-liner, to be the deputy chief of policy in his new administration.
Confirming the appointment, Vice President-elect JD Vance posted a message of congratulations on Monday to Miller on X and said, “This is another fantastic pick by the president.” The announcement was first reported by CNN.
Miller is one of Trump’s longest-serving aides, dating back to his first campaign for the White House. He was a senior adviser in Trump’s first term and has been a central figure in many of his policy decisions, particularly on immigration, including Trump’s move to separate thousands of immigrant families as a deterrence program in 2018.
Miller has also helped craft many of Trump’s hard-line speeches, and was often the public face of those policies during Trump’s first term in office and during his campaigns.
Since leaving the White House, Miller has served as the president of America First Legal, an organization of former Trump advisers fashioned as a conservative version of the American Civil Liberties Union, challenging the Biden administration, media companies, universities and others over issues such as freedom of speech and religion and national security.
He was also a frequent presence during Trump’s campaign this year, traveling aboard his plane and often speaking ahead of Trump during the pre-shows at his rallies.
Miller drew large cheers at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden during the race’s final stretch, telling the crowd that, “your salvation is at hand,” after what he cast as “decades of abuse that has been heaped upon the good people of this nation — their jobs stolen looted and from them and shipped to Mexico, Asia and foreign countries. The lives of their loves ones ripped away from then by illegal aliens, criminal gangs and thugs who don’t belong in this country.”
“We stand here today at a crossroads,” he went on, casting the election as “a choice between betrayal and renewal, between self-destruction and salvation, between the failure of America or the triumph of America.”
Because it is not a Cabinet position, the appointment does not need Senate confirmation. ___ Associated Press writer Jill Colvin contributed to this report.

I am done and need a break.
All morning I did the three Sunday shows I watch. This Week, Meet the Press, and Face the Nation. Ranted while I wrote stuff to refute and talk about pushed by the republicans on the panels and interviewed as they crowed about how this was a clear mandate for them to take the country so far right the Puritans would be scared to come here. I stopped writing figuring I had recorded all of these shows. Then I spent an hour while listening to them trying to figure out how to record them from one computer to the other as I really need to change my desk configuration and have already ordered the ram to do drastically help one of my computers. Sadly my main computer is maxed out. I should have known better but it was on sale with great specs … so I bought it. Always. Yes always by a computer that is upwards expandable. I won’t make that mistake again. However even if I lose these recordings of the corporate media and on This Week Johnathan Carl was creaming his pants on the tRump win, so much for media impartiality, I need a break as Ron was telling me. So I am going to play Portal Two. It is a wonderful puzzle game using a portal gun to shoot an incoming portal and an outgoing portal. No shooting other players. This is a grand game for people not wanting to hurt others even in a game and for stretching the mind. If you don’t have a gaming console the game is also on PC, which is where I first played it. Hugs I am off to challenge my brain on more than politics. Hugs.
This Was A MASSIVE Part Of Trump’s Victory
Please watch this. This is Vaush. He points out that of the top left wing streamers. Streamers make an hour to 3 hour content on schedule. A lot of them clip their streams to smaller 10 minute clips or so that they can post. Of the top ten who many are right wing media? 9. Yes 9 out of 10 most popular streamers on social media which includes YouTube, Twitch, other smaller streaming services. The amount of money pumped into the right wing media is incredible as I have been saying. Look at the graph of incomes. The one that was leftist was Hessian and he doesn’t lean towards either democrats or republicans. He once worked for TYT and left to make millions streaming. This is about 20 minutes long but it describes the cumulative power of everyone left of center right now is drowned out (tRumped) by 5 to 10 Nazis from the right. If we want to win we must reach people where they are, and to do that we must be on the media they us. Much more covered in the video. Hugs
History Will Not Forget
Let’s talk about Trump’s Social Security plans….
We can only hope the divisions and internal infighting will delay the worst of the things the most maga want to do including tRump. Remember the republicans in congress and in the states still have to be voted in. Call your local offices even if they are republicans, tell them you are a voter, be polite and to the point. You disagree and why. They are worried about their job and even in deep red districts republicans won’t be happy if their incomes and funds are cut or shit interferes with their families. Sadly a lot of people who voted for tRump thinking he did not mean them or their families will find out he did, just as the people deported last time whose family members voted for tRump. Hugs.
Let’s talk about Trump vs Democratic Governors….
Important info for fighting back. As I said the other day, tie everything up in the courts until we can win the Senate back. And we will. As crazy as tRump is / will try to be, we will win in 2026. Hugs
Let’s talk about blame and takeaways from 2024….
Yes, Yes, Yes. Belle is saying what I am hearing everywhere. Information did not reach the voters it needed to. Voters concerned and worried about costs to them voted for a man who promised tariffs, something that is designed to raise prices. We need to find a way to get the information to the people who vote. Take it from Belle. Hugs
