...even here in Goldstein, where the demographic is older than the national average, polling still consistently showed climate in the top three concerns of constituents.
And yet, these execrable arseholes still chose to dump the excellent Zoe for The Odious Slimeball 😡🖕 🤢🤮

#CognitiveDissonance demands a lot of energy to sustain a blatantly false set of beliefs - in this case a whole web of 'fake' reality spewed by Sir #TrumpVirus & his #GQP / #media #cult

It's easy enough, & 'normal', to dismiss one statement as "a lie"/untrue if it does not comport with an existing belief. One convinces oneself s/he is right, and the other 'side' or idea must be incorrect.

With Sir, everyone on earth is lying - or he is. Even MAGATs are exhausted.

> Trump disputes WSJ report on Bessent talking him out of firing Powell

Because, in Sir #TrumpVirus' own terrific words, “People don’t explain to me, I explain to them!” [See Reference 1/2]

Stated in a textbook nod to "Dunning-Kruger". [See Reference 2/2 below]

And Speaking of #psychology, think #CognitiveDissonance.

Either EVERYONE on earth, networks, journalists, comedians - EVERYBODY lies, or else, maybe, just maybe... he does (?!)

#Truth is a powerful cleanser...
Healthier than hate.

Screenshot from CNBC report 19 July 2025: "Trump disputes WSJ report on Bessent talking him out of firing Powell" President Donald Trump on Sunday denied a Wall Street Journal report suggesting Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent talked him out of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Bessent reportedly told Trump that removing Powell before his term is up next spring could spur a negative reaction in the economy and financial markets, and push the central bank into uncharted legal and political territory, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Bessent also argued that the Fed appears poised to cut interest rates this year, making it unnecessary to remove Powell, the Journal said. The president has harshly criticized Powell in the past for not slashing short-term rates. But Trump disputed the Journal story in a Truth Social post on Sunday, calling it “typically untruthful.” “Nobody had to explain that to me. I know better than anybody what’s good for the Market, and what’s good for the U.S.A.,” Trump wrote. “People don’t explain to me, I explain to them!” he added.

A friend asked if I would dog sit today while she and her husband went out for the night. #SunshineSadie and I are chillaxing in the green abundant beauty. It's so peaceful.

I'm trying to appreciate this break from my current living situation.

And also to keep up with what's happening around the country and around the world. It sure does create a lot of ...

The image depicts a serene outdoor patio area with a wooden deck. In the foreground, a golden retriever dog is lying on the deck, looking towards the garden. The deck is adorned with various potted plants, including vibrant pink flowers and green foliage. A small wooden table holds a blue bucket, a metal watering can, and decorative items like seashells and a Buddha statue. The background features a lush green lawn with trees and a swing hanging from a large tree. A red grill is visible on the left side, and a picnic table can be seen in the distance. The sky is overcast, suggesting a calm, cloudy day. The overall scene is peaceful and inviting, with a mix of natural and man-made elements. Provided by @altbot
