Day 186: Donny’s Descent: Distracting Scandals and Authoritarian Stunts

Oh Look - a Witch Hunt to Distract from the Epstein Scandal

Donny is a pathetic, vengeful and spiteful manchild. He's also a total fucking idiot who, let's face it, is all over the Epstein files.

Project distraction is now in full-swing. Donny's clowns are throwing everything out there that they can to distract from the Epstein scandal. For once, the press aren't just letting it go.

So now, his peroxide sidekick Pam Blondi, is weaponising the Department of Justice to go on a witch hunt and investigate Obama over imaginary crimes that he, along with other cartoon villains, Hilary Clinton and Joe Biden attempted to subvert the 2016 election, that Donny actually won. What a crock of a shit. Everyone knows it.

It was always going to be on Donny's list to mete out vengeance against his perceived political enemies. This is just a convenient time to try and role it out as he's under fire for not releasing the Epstein files that his name is all over.

Don't forget - this is purely a distraction attempt and one that also pleases Donny's petty whims about seeking vengeance.

Donny’s Hard Hat Horror Show

Donny, ever the statesman, showed up at the Federal Reserve’s Washington HQ and tried to stage one of his now-trademark ambush photo ops. This time with a visibly unimpressed Jerome Powell, the Fed Chair he once lovingly referred to as a “numbskull.”

Wearing a hard hat like he was about to lay bricks himself, Donny beckoned Powell over like a petulant schoolboy summoning the teacher he’s been trash-talking all recess. Powell, to his credit, looked like he’d rather be anywhere else - root canal, jury duty, maybe even Mar-a-Lago.

Once in frame, Donny whipped out a prop, a printout with some numbers, and dramatically announced that the Fed’s $2.5 billion renovation bill had magically ballooned to $3.1 billion. Powell, exasperated but still clinging to professionalism, calmly explained that the number included a different building renovated years ago. “It’s not new,” he muttered, eyes full of regret and dismay.

But Donny wasn’t done. Oh no. When asked what he’d do with a project manager who went over budget, he flexed his inner Apprentice host: “I’d fire him.” Ah yes, the fiscal hawk we all know and love the one who added $8 trillion to the national debt and ran the White House like a clearance sale at Trump Steaks.

And because no Donny tantrum is complete without walking back his own threats, he then backpedaled on earlier hints he’d fire Powell, saying: “To do that is a big move, and I just don’t think it’s necessary.”

Let’s not pretend this was anything other than what it was: a cheap, embarrassing stunt to pressure the Fed into slashing interest rates. Donny wants a sugar high. Powell wants stability. One of them is wearing a hard hat and making up numbers on camera.

Donny: Dispose of the Homeless

Donny has signed an executive order that basically says: if you’re homeless, mentally ill, or just look like you’re having a bad day in public - congratulations, you might qualify for involuntary commitment!

In true authoritarian fashion, the order instructs the Attorney General to bulldoze through legal precedents and consent decrees that for decades have protected people’s civil liberties: you know, minor stuff like due process.

Now, under Donny’s "compassionate" plan, local governments get federal permission to scoop people off the streets, slap a "danger to self or others" label on them, and toss them into treatment facilities. All under the banner of public safety, of course. Because "cleaning up the streets" always polls better than "actually helping people."

Oh, and don’t worry, federal funds will be "redirected" toward programs that focus on civil commitment and substance abuse. Not housing, not mental health support, not job programs. Just the parts that involve locking people away and hoping they disappear.

This isn't about helping vulnerable people. It's about clearing the sidewalks for photo ops, and flexing state power over the powerless.

Because nothing screams leadership like jailing the consequences of your own policies.

“You Bow Down to a Fucking Pedophile!” — DeSantis Heckled in Public

Poor Ron DeSadist. He just wanted a nice, quiet press conference in Bradenton, Florida, maybe to brag about book bans, his concentration camps or praise Donny’s latest descent into authoritarian cosplay. But instead, he got absolutely wrecked by a protester who shouted the one thing you’re definitely not supposed to say out loud:

The room froze, jaws dropped, and DeSadist's internal monologue likely screamed “not again.” DeSadist could only muster a repeated "get him out of here" in response.

Security swooped in and removed the protester with the kind of efficiency they don’t apply to hurricane response or affordable housing.

Of course, DeSantis, professional sidestepper of hard truths, continued on like nothing had happened. Because nothing says “bold leadership” like pretending you weren’t just publicly accused of enabling a predator-adjacent president and having no response whatsoever.

The moment was brief, chaotic, and very, very real. No word yet on whether Donny texted Ron after to say “great job, little buddy!” or threatened to deport him to California.

Watch the awkwardness unfold here.
