People who supported Donald Trump’s candidacy for president did so for probably five bullet point reasons and one of them was their disgust over the Biden Thing’s use of the power of the president to pardon people unjustly convicted to pardon criminals who deserved conviction, such as the Biden Thing’s loathsome son – who grifted millions by leveraging the influence he possessed due to his grifter father being the president.
And now Donald Trump has done pretty much the same.
The news broke yesterday that the new president has pardoned Trevor Milton – the EV grifter who founded Nikola, the semi-truck EV manufacturer that bilked millions from investors by tricking them into believing that Nikola was manufacturing a battery powered tractor trailer.
It turned out to be gravity powered – in that it only rolled downhill. Nevertheless, the infamous video of the device rolling – seemingly under power – served to convince the rubes and line Milton’s pockets. He was eventually convicted of fraud back in 2022 and sentenced to four years in prison – but has been free on appeal since his conviction, which makes you wonder about such “convictions.” Nikola – the company named after Tesla, the man – went bankrupt officially earlier this year.
Those are the facts.
The question is: Has justice been served by pardoning Milton? Was he unjustly persecuted? Wrongly convicted? It is hardly necessary to answer those questions. The situation is even worse than the Hunter Biden situation in that justice had run its course in Milton’s case. He’d had his day in court and the facts established his guilt. Biden pardoned his grifting son preemptively – but as guilty as he likely is, he had not been formally convicted of many of the crimes it was likely he’d have been convicted of, had he actually been tried.
But at least there is the fact that Hunter Biden is his father’s son and one can understand a father grifter pardoning his grifter son. This is not to excuse it – a different thing. But understanding it? Of course.
It is very hard to understand why Trump would choose to pardon the Milton grifter. Did not Trump campaign, in part, on his opposition to the Green Grift? So why has he pardoned one of the worst Green Grifters? Could it have anything at all to do with the fact that his major domo – or is the other way around? – is the biggest and worst Green Grifter extant?
Has Elon’s Musk clouded the president’s judgment? This appears to be the case and it so appeared even before the news broke about the Milton pardon. Trump is all of a sudden a fan of Teslas. He publicly said he intended to buy one the other day and also referred to the device-manufacturer as a “great American car company” – never mind how much Chinesium is under the plastic, glued-on skins of these devices.
There is also the reported huge campaign contribution Milton made toward Trump’s re-election bid. But look! A Squirrel! And if you do look, its evidence of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The Red Hats – who’ve become as deranged in their own way as the Pussy Hats – screech about TDS! As if that somehow effaced the facts. Which they’d obviously rather not discuss because they are facts. Kind of like the facts about “masks” during “COVID” – which the red hats were very much wanting to discuss back then and annoyed by the other side’s hysterical shrieking about their motives for raising questions about – and pointing out facts about – those accoutrements of mindless followership.
Well, the wheel has turned – but it seems nothing has changed.

I’m still waiting to prove Eric wrong on his Epstien files prediction. They’re not throwing due process out the window, and people will be going to jail this time, even if it takes 1-2 years.
Hi Steve,
Want to bet?
Just enough truth to justify continued derangement. Maybe Eric’s crackpot theory Is true.
If I was Machiavelli, I would do this because I can. Keeps the lunes just where I want them, unvotable.
Milton had to be pardoned lest fElon suffer the same fate.
The two grifters did the same thing – committed securities fraud.
Nobody here really thinks Musk got involved in politics because of his steadfast ideals do they?
Speaking of principaled, Orange Man also did what the Scranton Sniffer did, but to much less fanfare.
Here’s a Trump pardon…to his Chosen son in law’s Chosen friend.
Real nice guy.

Requiring disclosure of dual loyalty … isn’t that antisemitic or something?
4 years ago a perceptive Christian named Brother Paual made an excellent Youtube video about Trump and his characteristics, it is worth a watch, because if you are wondering what Trump is really like, this video covers it in detail.
The Antichrist is Donald J. Trump (Proof from the Bible)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQN7y5I9poc
145,794 views Sep 22, 2020 Biblical Reasons Trump is the Antichrist
Donald J. Trump perfectly matches the biblical descriptions of the Antichrist, and Christians are being deluded by this man. The bible gives us many specific descriptions of the character traits of the Antichrist, and they all point directly at Trump. This video goes through dozens of bible verses and also uses Trump’s own words.
——————
The video is significant because 4 years ago no one knew that Trump would regain the Presidency and bankroll the Gaza genocide, attack Yemen, and threaten to attack Iran. Trump is literally unleashing hell in the Middle East, crashing the car industry with tariffs, causing a world wide trade war, etc.
Once again I would like to remind everyone of the Preacher Brandon Biggs prophecy, he had a dream and saw the bullet go by Trump’s ear, 4 months later it happened – and he also saw a great economic crash. But it hasn’t happened yet … but could because the stock market is selling off and ready to make the next wave down, see Daneric Elliott Wave charts:
https://danericselliottwaves.org/
Over at Elliott Wave dot com, they say that stocks and real estate always crash together – and indeed we are currently in the biggest stock and real estate bubble right now – the biggest in the history of mankind. But you see, when you are living the bubble, it doesn’t seem like a bubble until after the crash.
Hi Jack,
I have a friend who is a realtor in Northern Va. He keeps me up to date on the transaction prices of homes on my old neighborhood, which was once a neighborhood where you could buy a single family home for $150k (I did) or a townhouse for $75k. That was in the Before Time – mid-1990s. Today those same houses approach $700k. Mind, these are nothing-special early ’70s houses built on slabs with T-111 siding. They are the “affordable” homes now in Loudoun County. This can’t be sustained.

YJ your anti-christ video was made 09/2020 before Trump’s loss (which certainly isn’t predicted) and contains not one mention of covid, vaccines or masks (not one photo of anyone wearing one either).
@56:03: Do you agree that Trump will prove he is the anti-christ “by betraying Israel” (your pet hobby horse) by (Reason #42) breaking the Mideast peace agreement he (Trump) has negotiated? [The mideast peace agreement ‘bro paul’ is referring to is the one jared kushner was negotiating between israel and saudi arabia (@48:32 Reason #36 “The anti-christ will have a mideast peace plan”; @48:56 “Christians are ignoring the fact that Trump is putting together a peace plan even now” intoned over pic of Saudi/Trump/Netanyahu.] which is the real reason i believe trump lost 2020: Israel didn’t want that agreement which might have included a palestinian state: @56:59 “Peace to Prosperity. A vision to improve the lives of the Palestinian and Israeli people. The white house is pleased to share president trump’s vision for a comprehensive peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians. From that it cuts to @57:03 photo of back of trump (he’s on his way out) w/”As Judas betrayed Jesus so will Trump betray Israel” intoned and lettered.
Trump and Kushner now sing a different tune: “Jared Kushner: Israel should consider settling Palestinians from Gaza to Negev desert”
https://forward.com/fast-forward/594227/jared-kushner-israel-gaza-rafah/
“Trump has said the two million Palestinians who would be resettled in neighbouring countries under his plan to take over and rebuild the Gaza Strip would have no right of return.”

“Biblical Reasons why Trump is the Antichrist Donald J. Trump”
If Trump is the Antichrist then what does that make Biden, Harris, Shumer etc.? We only have a choice between evil and stupid, but sometimes evil and stupid unite and call it
bipartisanship.
Who’d have thunk it? Oh wait…he did the same thing last time, including pardoning Philip Esformes who was serving 20 years for bilking Medicare out of $1.6 Billion of taxpayer money… He had also pardoned several other drug company creeps, and a murderer (Whose family was well-connected).
In the four years of Trump’s first term, he showed us exactly who he was and what he’d do. Why would anyone expect it to be any different this time?
Votes may not matter, and voting for “the lesser of two evils”,
resonates with many. But my conscience remains solidly
satisfied – “ Don’t blame me, I voted Libertarian. “
A new dictator is about the land – all hail Il Duce.
Folks are getting the government they deserve – good and hard.
Someone should put up a website documenting Ziowhore Trump’s daily atrocities. Not the Daily Wire – the Daily Trump Atrocity. New headline soon – Trump BOMBS the ICC for His Indictment.
Quite frankly, after I witnessed Trump pushing in the chair for war criminal Bibi Netanyahu (Polish fake Jew real name Mileikowski) I gave up all hope for Trump and the nation. We are being ruled by a deranged orange clown, a genocidal orange MIGA pig, a cartoon character motivated by money, ego, AIPAC, and his Chabad fiends like effeminate boy toy Jared Kushner. A normal person would of processed serve Nutjobyahoo and had the US Marshals slap the cuffs on him and sent him to the Hague for a good hanging. But not Orange Israel first pig, orange MIGA pig slavishly served pure evil – and now Orange Jew lover moron will be the next indicted on war crimes. How does that make us great? It makes us evil. It makes us a big joke to the rest of the world – and none dare calling it what it is – treason. MAGA Trump is only a political slogan, Trump is serving a foreign state over the nation he was elected, that is treason by definition.
What will Trump do next, what completely over the top crime will he pull on us next? Bomb Yemen without mercy? Attack Iran? Supply Ukraine with nukes? IMO the Trump regime is in an epic death spiral, sure is interesting watch our nation go under, gold going vertical, wars and more wars, hundreds of children being blown to bits by Orange MIGA pig. It is so over the top evil, so revolting, so disgusting, it is laughable. Insane. Ludicrous. How is Trump our savior? How is he making us great again? Forget making us great again, how about stopping the completely out of control deficit spending like right now? The first 5 weeks of 2025 the national debt deficit jumped another 1.1 trillion! My god man, how much longer can that go on? Why are we sending Israel or anyone else a dime while our nation finances spin completely out of control? What I am waiting for is the next move up in interest rates – it seems logical to me that soon the ask price to pawn off Treasury debt is a bigger rate. Like any turd world nation, interest rates go double digits to sell the debt. Lunatic Trump thinks interest rates can be controlled, this is completely wrong, as the buyers determine the rates. For a businessman, Trump is sure an idiot on bond rates and inflation. Huge deficits are greased with huge increases in M2 which eventually makes huge increases in inflation – and gold going through the roof proves it’s coming.
George Custer Trump amassing B-2 bombers to attack them without mercy, Little Big Man script:
“But, sir…
if the hostiles
come in behind us,
and if they’re
waiting for us down below,
we’ll never get out of there.
Hostiles behind us?
I see no hostiles behind us.
Do you see any hostiles
behind us, Major?
No, sir, not at the moment…
Then, then, then…
…stop trying to cause
a reversal
of a Custer decision.
But, sir, wouldn’t it…
wouldn’t it be best
to send a squad down
Medicine Tail Coulee?
No, it wouldn’t.
But, sir…
may I ask, sir, why it wouldn’t?
Because Major, it would cost us
the vital element of surprise.
Surprise? General,
they know we’re here.
Yes, but they don’t know
that I intend to attack them
without mercy.
But, General,
that’s no surprise.
Of course it is.
Nothing is this world
is more surprising
than the attack without mercy.
Just like Hitler wasn’t all evil. He was maybe about 90% evil after all he did push for the Autobahn and the peoples car.
Trump isn’t all evil either. He’s maybe 30% evil, after all he did rescind most of traitor Biden’s executive orders and DIE initiatives. I watched the news the other day and non of the MSM had anything good to say about Trump. They attack him all the time but the Communists/Socialists are loved by all the MSM.
Biden and Harris are about 70% evil after all they love animals. I was going to sat they love babies but I doubt that.
So we do have a choice between different levels of evil. Choose wisely.
Well, Biden, Harris, and company love dead babies. Does that count?
“A fool and his money are soon parted”
Not trying to defend his orangeness, but if those greeny dupes want to burn their cash on a obvious fughazi, they did so on their own volition completely voluntarily. Milton, a sleazeball salesman to be sure, never forced anyone to give him a single sheckel. (Unlike, the “gubmint” which takes your cash at gun point).
Lying about a business proposition is a character default, not something we need to be locking people up for. Firstly there’s not enough room to house every grifter in prison and it also turns the gubmint into the thought police instead of enforcing common law.
This shouldn’t come as a surprise. Expect multiple pardons of Zionist lowlifes going forward as Ts daughter and SIL reenter his circle of trust. A man with strong competent sons, who relies on his Jewess, rent seeking daughter, is a man in name only. Its not really his fault though. He’s old, and suffers from the foolishness most old people exhibit. Another reason no one over sixty should be allowed in GovCo.
OMs epic failure to pardon Assange and Snowden last time around should have shown everyone everything they needed to know. Voting for him, or any other clown just adds another ‘fell for it again’ participation ribbon that folks love to feel good about. But hey, at least we aren’t being ruled by utterly incompetent Bolshivks.
Cant wait to hear the reasons we should all get out and Vote harder in less than two years. A few thousand of them, millions of us. If voting was going to do the trick, it would have happened by now.
Trump’s pardon is no mystery. Milton donated a lot of money to Trump’s campaign, and Trump is a transactional creature. This has nothing to do with EV’s or grifting, just follow the money.
Let’s not overlook that Trevor Milton and his wife “contributed” $1.8 million to Trumpy’s campaign. Everything Trumpenstein does has a price, Miriam Adelson is getting her $100 million dollars of bombs to genocide the Palestinians; you get what you pay for.
And now after having bombers fly to Diego Garcia the “man of peace” to once again threaten Iran to impress his bfb Benny Boy Milekowsky.
Cars !! Cars !! all one hears about is CARS. What about us, those like me who are contractors and have a work truck full of supplies, tools and other things to do our jobs? Vans and pickup trucks along with the 450 / 500 / and other heavy duty trucks designed to haul tons of stuff to and from the workplace/ like cement ready to pour, like dump trucks, trucks that can pull a heavy load like a bulldozer or even a back hoe? Excavator anybody? No “EV” or little 4 banger is going to have the horsepower to pull those loads. Most HD vehicles are diesel and rather big ones at that — NOW WHAT?
IN the end there has to be an “exception” for commercial vehicles. OR watch the whole infrastructure collapse because nobody can get the men, the equipment and the supplies to the job in 15 minute city to do the JOB.
AND to prove you are a contractor — you need to have the vehicle “lettered” with the firm name and phone number. A state inspection would also be required at plate renewal time to also verify that you are in deed a bonafide contractor. Want your name and phone number plastered on your CAR so anybody can call you up and bitch about something or just to stalk you?
There are two different worlds out there. THOSE who drive for fun or to get to a job or personal chores and those of us who absolutely need to drive to get the JOB DONE.
Just saying and watching this very carefully to see how this shakes out in the end.
The Dinocontractor …
Agree Mark. Current Tier4 diesels have destroyed the reliability and economics of diesel power that runs our large country, and has been for a very long time. New 2027 Regs that were coming would have destroyed diesel power.
With new EPA Chief Lee Zeldin announcing regulation is over, we now wait to see what that means. It’s going to be a dance for sure. For example, if we role back to Tier3, there will be a cheer for us users, but not so much for US Manufacturers cause Asian diesels would basically put our diesel Manuf. out of biz. If these US Manuf. were smart they would start marketing that their engines are better than Asian, and why. We are after the old days of million mile diesels, with parts readily avail.
Trump is a politician, which makes him a liar, a thief, and a psychopath. The only time the truth passes his lips is to set you up for the next even bigger lie.
President Ponzi is pardoning all of his fellow Ponzi scammers. They truly are his constituents. Between his making bitcon the next exponential Savings and Loan Crisis, pardoning his class of criminals and preparing to bailout leveraged hedge funds when this bubble bursts, whatever good he does will be quickly erased in a tidal wave of raw sewage flooding back. And whatever good he does has not been codified by Congress nor have any of the guilty yet been prosecuted for which he would likely pardon them anyway. Unless you are a fomenting rabid zionist, Trump II is leaving you feeling like it is Bush I, II, III rolled into one. This time, however there is no more flag waving and “if you are not with us, you are with the terrorists” mentality. Two generations of Americans lived under the farce and know better than to rah rah their sons and daughters to go kill the yellow and brown man an ocean or two away for DeMoCrAcY. Fooled again…. and again. Qween Kamala would not have been much more a disaster as more than 50% of the country would have ever believed she was the defect president anyway.
Amen, thought –
I begin to think it was all a set up. Enrage people with trannies showing their junk to kids, push “masks” – and all of that stuff. Then present Trump as the salve. And – yes – he did get rid of the trannies. But while they were (and are) cretinous – the ones who push themselves on kids, that is – they are far less an existential threat than Israel Uber Alles, the grenading of the economy and the ruination of the working and middle class for the sake of Wall Street.
Of all the things President Ponzi is meddling in, the currency/bitcon and the pro-genocide state – carrying water for them at home and abroad are the most existential crises to be toying with. With national debt and financial markets at these levels, it’s a powder keg and President Ponzi is playing with matches. What’s coming is going to make us all wish it was Covid Hysteria we were living under.
Imagine targeting speech critical of a foreign state and carrying out hit list compiled by groups literally dancing on the bones of Palestinian children – this is has semblance to any America we once thought we lived in. A wanton imperial state, being crushed by debt and now looking for new enemies at home and abroad is not what any of us voted for. I proudly stayed out of the theater this time, realizing that the savior from the Qween was just going to bring us a different kind of dystopia. A dystopia that far too many will rah rah rah for.
50% of the country got what they wanted, and they’re going to get it good and hard. That same 50% would have been crying out if the Qween were setting us on this same course instead.
It’s not going to get better. I lived through the 2000 crash, so few of the true believers have any idea what a real recession and crash looks like. Even the panic of 2008 and the 2020 covid fun are going to look like the wonders we are set for. Can the Fed bail everyone out again when the bill for the last three bailouts has not been paid and is growing daily?
Trump is a secret NWO operative and it’s all for public consumption. Talk about “flooding the zone with shit” as Carville said.
“ Well, the wheel has turned – but it seems nothing has changed.”
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss.
Only the song title should be “Sure to be fooled again”.
One who missed yesterday’s news about Trevor Milton might have mistaken Eric’s headline as referring to Elon.
In 2024, Musk moved Tesla’s legal situs to Texas, following a Delaware judge’s decision to invalidate his $56 billion compensation package.
For $56 billion, Tesla shareholders have a right to a full-time CEO. Instead, Elon is running DOGE. Yesterday it was reported that Elon will campaign for a judicial candidate in Wisclownsin, a partisan favor that has nothing to do even with DOGE.
Where is the Tesla board, which includes Elon’s ne’er-do-well, bohemian brother Kimbal? These cronies are quiet as church mice, as their CEO goes AWOL:
https://ir.tesla.com/corporate
You can gauge the vast depth of corruption in America by the fact that Elon gets away with this immense scale of personal grift without a peep of protest from anyone. Where is the SEC? Where are the shareholder lawsuits? Bueller?
Elon’s been busy setting up the merger of xAI and Twitter.
While running DOGE, SpaceX, and all his other companies at the same time.
And tweating 60 times a day.
The guy’s a genius! /s
By the way, how’s Solar City going these days? Were they not going to have the Tesla gigafactory powered 100% by solar some five years ago already?
‘It’s not just a pusher.’ — Trevor Milton
‘God damn the pusher man.’ — Steppenwolf, The Pusher
Hoyt Axton wrote the lyrics and melody for The Pusher. Steppenwolf’s Born to Be Wild is next in line, another highway song.
Uneasy Rider by Charlie Daniels is a great song.
Hang On Sloopy performed by Rick Derringer and the McCoys is a killer video.
Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper smoked up a pound of marijuana while filming Easy Rider.
That is why Jack flew over the cuckoo’s nest.
The Trump stain is worse than Biden’s dark winter.
Wouldn’t want to be in Trevor Milton’s shoes.
Nobody views with alarm and points with pride more than Donald the Chump.
