Trump got caught again with an open mic! And as usual his comments were worthy of gutter talk.

White House Scrambles to Wipe Trump Meltdown Footage

Trump dished out insults and made crazy claims in an event the White House never expected to become public.

The White House posted and then rushed to delete an hour-long recording of an event with President Donald Trump that captured him lashing out at the Supreme Court after justices signaled expressed skepticism about his birthright citizenship case.

The president privately hosted a group of MAGA pastors and religious allies Wednesday for an Easter luncheon at the White House. Trump made several bonkers remarks during the event, which was never meant to be seen by the public, as the White House quickly deleted the footage from its official pages.

[...]

While he thought the cameras weren’t rolling, the president let it rip about his true feelings about Supreme Court justices, including his own appointees, after he stormed out of oral arguments at the court earlier that day.

Oh boy did he have some choice words for the ungrateful oaf! And here is why I'm posting this...

“‘I don’t care if Trump appointed me, I don’t care, if it doesn’t make any difference to me. I’m voting against him!” Trump said, visibly annoyed.

“Cause they want to show their independence, you know, stupid people,” complained Trump.

So Trump feels that the judges he appointed "owe" him something! And then he blurt out,

“I can’t get a ballroom approved. It’s pretty amazing, right? If I was a king, we’d be doing a lot more. I’m doing a lot, but I could be doing a lot more if I was a king,” he lamented.

According to The Baptist News,

iPaula White (right) compares Donald Trump to Jesus while Robert Jeffress (left) looks on. (Screencap)

Paula White and Franklin Graham added to their stacks of praise for President Donald Trump this week, with White comparing Trump to Jesus in Holy Week.

Not to be outdone, Trump also compared himself to Jesus being called “king.”

At a White House luncheon April 1, Trump spoke about Palm Sunday and said he could relate to the story of Jesus.

“On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem as crowds welcomed him with praise honoring him as king,” Trump said. Video of the speech was posted to the White House website and then deleted.

And that...

Some evangelical leaders — including Gary Bauer and First Baptist Dallas pastor Robert Jeffress — have insisted in the past that Trump is “born again” and a follower of Jesus Christ.

Trump is a follower of Trump. 

Going To Hell In A Handbasket!

The economy is collapsing! We are at war! Electric prices are skyrocketing! And what are legislators around the nation focusing on? Us—the trans community!

Democratic governor says “Hell no” to five anti-trans bills on Transgender Day of Visibility

Gov. Tony Evers promised to veto all anti-LGBTQ+ legislation that comes to his desk. He has not failed.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D) once again made good on his pledge to protect LGBTQ+ rights in the state, vetoing five anti-LGBTQ+ bills passed by the state legislature’s Republican majority.

During a private ceremony at the state Capitol on Tuesday, March 31, Evers told a crowd of LGBTQ+ young people and their families that he would have like to have written “Hell no” on the bills which would have instituted anti-trans sports bans, required schools to out trans and nonbinary kids to their parents, and impacted Wisconsin doctors’ ability to provide gender-affirming care to minors.

They knew he would veto it, so why did they take the time to vote on these bills? Why did Republicans take the time to hear and vote on them?

Idaho passes legislation criminalizing transgender use of public bathrooms

By Reuters

March 27, 2026

Idaho's Republican-controlled legislature passed a bill on Friday to ban people in the state from using bathrooms or changing rooms that ​do not match the gender they were assigned at birth, in the ‌latest restriction targeting transgender people in the United States.

The bill, expected to be signed into law by Republican Governor Brad Little, passed the state Senate 28-7 on Friday. It passed the Idaho ​House of Representatives last week.

Transgender people in the country have faced increasing limitations at ​the state and national levels, and those efforts have been bolstered since President Donald Trump returned ‌to ⁠office last year. Trump has issued a series of executive actions targeting transgender rights and stated in a directive that the U.S. government will recognize only two sexes: male and female.

They wasted hours on this bill while more important legislation was left unaddressed!

Bill redefining sex signed nearly a year after it passed

A long-running legal battle over bills redefining sex likely has a new chapter

By: Jordan Hansen

Daily Montanan

March 30, 2026

Gov. Greg Gianforte last week signed the final bill passed during the 2025 legislative session defining sex in state law, likely spawning a protracted legal fight.

Senate Bill 437, which defines sex as only male or female, was signed on March 24, 2026, but sat on Republican House Speaker Brandon Ler’s desk for nearly a year. Senate President Matt Regier, R-Kalispell, signed the bill on April 21, 2025.

The bill is similar to 2023 Senate Bill 458, which also defined sex and was challenged in court. The earlier legislation was thrown out in the midst of the 2025 session, and Missoula County District Court Judge Leslie Halligan signaled at the time any similar bills would also likely be found unconstitutional.

But Ler said Monday that Republicans were deliberate about protecting the law from legal challenges, and the legislation should stand on its own.

“We … believe the law should be evaluated on its own merits, not folded into broader challenges, and we are prepared to defend it,” Ler said in a statement.

The thing is, most people support our rights, just not MAGA. Republicans know that their bigoted, Christian Nationalist base eats it right up!

The Public Religion Research Institute wrote,

A new national survey released today by PRRI profiles LGBTQ Americans and tracks Americans’ views on LGBTQ rights across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Based on interviews with more than 22,000 adults throughout 2025, this new data from the 2025 PRRI American Values Atlas measures public opinion on LGBTQ nondiscrimination protections, religiously based service refusals, and same-sex marriage. It also asks Americans if they agree that transgender Americans deserve the same rights and protections as other Americans.

The survey finds that strong majorities of Americans support nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ individuals (72%) and favor same-sex marriage (65%), although support for both measures has decreased slightly over the past three years (down from 80% and 69% in 2022, respectively). Roughly 6 in 10 Americans oppose allowing businesses to refuse service to LGBTQ people on religious grounds (59%, down from 65% in 2022).

We were never seen as a problem until Trump made us one with his bigotry. Look at Montana, they spent two years on bills targeting us, and they tied up the court system defending oppressive laws!

When I came out in 1999, the atmosphere was more supportive. Then Trump came along in the 2010s and helped fuel the Republican pogrom against us.

How many trans women in the last ten years have attacked women in bathrooms? Zero. Zilch. So why are they going after us? For votes. They are persecuting us for votes. Trans people are suffering and even dying for votes. Trans people’s healthcare has been cut… for votes.

Of all the problems facing our country, trans people are not one of them, and people know it.

 

The Republican Response

At least it wasn't the middle finger but close!

Republicans slammed for “cruel” one-word response to the Trans Day of Visibility

“These people are just so pathetically cruel.”

Alex Bollinger (He/Him)

March 31, 2026

Republicans are getting criticized for their short and “cruel” response to the Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), which is today.

The TDOV is a yearly event intended to raise awareness of the discrimination trans people face worldwide. The Democratic Party’s X account acknowledged the day with a supportive message.

And in Connecticut they raised the trans flag over the Capitol!

“Trans rights are human rights,” the Democrats’ message said. “This Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the resilience of transgender and nonbinary Americans and celebrate their incredible courage.”

The National Republican Senate Committee (NRSC) responded with just one word: “No.” They added a heart emoji, which was probably just an attempt to appear nonchalant about their denial that trans rights are human rights.

I know a trans woman who supports the Republicans... she thinks that because she is a "True Woman" the Republicans will accept her, just like Caitlyn Jenner living in her own little world.

Disappearing...

We are in good company…

• In ancient Rome, emperors like Geta had their names chiseled off monuments and their portraits destroyed.
• In the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin, purged officials were removed from photos, textbooks, and records.
• In China during the Cultural Revolution led by Mao Zedong, historical texts, artifacts, and traditions were destroyed as “old culture.”
• In the United States under Trump, references to trans people have been removed.

Trump minions has been axing us off government websites...

Trump’s minions have quietly disappeared most federal data on gender identity

Some agencies went even beyond what the president ordered on day one.

LGBTQ Nation

March 26, 2026

President Donald Trump already has signed more executive orders since January 2025 than during his entire first term — and more than many presidents signed during their tenures in office. But one order has gone far beyond the others in reshaping the ecosystem of information the government and so many others, rely on.

“EO14168 has been overwhelmingly responsible for driving changes to federal forms and survey data,” says Melanie Klein, an analyst with the federal monitoring organization DataIndex who has been tracking these alterations. Although Trump signed EO14168—better known by its title “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government”—on his first day in office, data experts are still getting a sense of its far-reaching scope.

Of more than 500 federal databases affected by Trump’s myriad executive orders, nearly three-quarters were revised because of the Defending Women order alone. Most of the cases involved removing trans-inclusive gender identity options from survey forms, leaving people to choose between male or female.

So far, they haven’t cut us from the research database like PubMed, but in nearly all other areas, we have been erased.

Trump’s pogrom against us is a multi-pronged attack: removing all references to us, erasing our presence from landmarks like the Stonewall National Monument, removing dancing drag queens from public history, and denying us healthcare.

Nope!

In a couple of hours, on this April Fools’ Day, our Fearless Leader will be giving a speech... and I won’t be watching, because I already know what he’s going to say. No, I didn’t get an advance copy.

We all know the talking points; how it’s all Biden’s fault, the Democrats, etc., etc.

So I propose a bingo game! Check off the boxes as Trump rambles through his long-winded speech. Mark them as he says each one:

 

Blames Democrats	"Fake News"	Talks Economy	Mentions Border	"American People"
Self Praise	"Tremendous"	Criticizes Media	Mentions Crime	Repeats Phrase
Nicknames Someone	Blames Past Admin	FREE	Talks Jobs	Mentions Military
Trade Deals	Energy Policy	Big Reaction	Awkward Pause	Random Story
"Never Seen Before"	Sarcasm	Crowd Size	"Witch Hunt"	Off Script

Cuckoo Award!

Today's award goes to Trump for an idiotic statement about oil...

Trump says Strait of Hormuz is the world’s problem: ‘Go get your own oil!’
NATO partners, including the European Union, have largely refused to help secure the strait.

Politico

By Gregory Svirnovskiy

 President Donald Trump had a message Tuesday for U.S. allies whose access to oil has been imperiled by the White House’s war against Iran: You’re on your own.

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT,” he wrote on Truth Social Tuesday.

Oil is a global market!

Oil is a big bucket where everyone pours the oil into and which everyone dips into.

 

So for the stupidly I award the coveted Cuckoo Award to Trump!

A Lot of High Fives

[Editorial]

There is much glee about Kristi Noem’s husband being outed!

Kristi Noem and Trump have responded to shocking cross-dressing photos tied to him.

But I take the opposite view.

No one should be outed against their will. Period.

I have always said that outing someone can cause harm, and no matter how despicable or how anti-trans they may be, they should not ever be outed.

That has long been one of the tenets of our community: you never out someone without their permission. Some of the lasting effects include higher anxiety and depression, as well as an increased risk of self-harm or suicidal thoughts. As trans people, we know better than most what happens when someone else takes control of our identity.

When I counsel people on coming out, I always tell them to make sure they have a “safety net” in case it goes badly. That option is not available to those who are outed.

If we only defend people’s dignity when it’s easy, then it isn’t a principle at all. No, I will not celebrate a person being outed against their will.

Specials Treatment

It involved a Trump-favored crooner, Kid Rock, and taking a helicopter on a joy-ride, military discipline, bypassing the chain of command and raising concerns about political interference. 

 Hegseth says suspensions lifted for helicopter crews who hovered over Kid Rock home

Pentagon chief’s remarks come after US army said crews suspended amid investigation into incident in Tennessee

The Guardian

Tue 31 Mar 2026 

Defense secretary Pete Hegseth said the crews of two US army AH-64 Apache helicopters that hovered next to the singer Kid Rock’s swimming pool while he clapped and saluted on Saturday are no longer suspended.

“No punishment. No investigation,” Hegseth wrote on social media. “Carry on, patriots.”

Hegseth’s announcement came just hours after a US army spokesperson said the crews had been suspended from flying pending a investigation.

“The army has confirmed that on 28 March, two Apache helicopters from the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade at Fort Campbell conducted a flight in the Nashville area that has attracted public and media attention,” according to a statement from the army on Tuesday.

The army said it was reviewing “the circumstances surrounding the mission, including compliance with relevant FAA regulations, aviation safety protocol, and approval requirements”.

I never been in the military but in work you never by-pass the chain-command. So I asked ChatGPT why this was wrong.

Why people say “this doesn’t seem right”

You’re picking up on a real issue. Critics are raising a few concerns:

1. Chain of command / discipline

• Normally, local commanders investigate and enforce standards
• A top-level political appointee stepping in early can be seen as undermining that process

2. Appearance of favoritism

• The flyby involved Kid Rock, a high-profile political ally of the administration
• That raises questions about whether rules are applied equally

3. Military neutrality

• The U.S. military is supposed to stay apolitical
• A flyby tied (even informally) to a political figure or event blurs that line

4. Safety and precedent

• If crews can deviate from missions for unofficial reasons without consequence, that’s a discipline and safety concern

And our Fearless Leader's henchman steps in to quash the investigation!

“So what if those ‘fly boys’ flew by Madonna’s house and Took a Bow?” anchor Greg Kelly wrote on the social platform X. “Or Robert DeNiro. That would Not be cool, right? But it’s just fine for Kid Rockhead? What an amateur move, posting it on Social Media”

March 3^rd
I have been away on a business trip to our corporate headquarters' for most of the week and I was stuck in boy mode. However on the bright side, I got to fly out and back on the corporate jet. That was so neat that it almost, almost made up for being stuck in boy mode. The plane is a Gulfstream IV and it holds eight passengers. When I arrived at the private plane end of the airport, I just walk up to the plane and handed the co-pilot my bags and she checked off my name. On takeoff from Bradley field I looked down the aisle and out the cockpit window, I could watch the pilot and co-pilot and see the runway. We cruised at 30,000 ft at 497 mph, on the bulkhead of the passenger cabin there was an altimeter and ground speed and on the rear bulkhead there was also an altimeter and speed but it also had airspeed, mile to go and a map with our location.

The only thing that got me a little nervous was when the co-pilot brought out the plane manuals and started reading. I thought what is she doing that for, is there a problem? But they both seemed OK, not rushed or excited and there were no flashing lights in the cockpit. So I thought it couldn't be any major problem, probably something minor like a radio or something. At work today, someone who is a pilot said that she was probably just reading the manual learning the aircraft.

On the way back the plane was almost filled and there were a couple of VP's on board as soon as we got airborne they raided the icebox and broke out the beer and snacks They started talking about business so I had to sit there while they were talking about some contract or other. Then one of them started making small talk with me. When someone mentioned that there was six inches of snow on the ground, I said "Shit". He asked me if I had some plans for the night and I said "Yeah, I was planning on going out." My brains slip's into "Little White Lie Mode", after all I couldn't say I was going out drag bar with some tranny friends and me dressed as Diana, so I said I had a date. So he asked, "Where were we going?" Brain spins a couple times trying to get into gear, so I said, "Hartford for dinner, but they probably have a parking band so I probably get a pizza and go over to her apartment", wink, wink, nod, nod and after that he just smiled and stop asking questions. Whew!

We made great time coming back, our airspeed was 600 mph with a 100 mph tailwind, but once we got on the ground and I had to drive home, it took longer to drive home than fly back from almost Ohio. I-91 traffic was going 30 - 40 mph in the snow, the roads were very bad.
