Donald Trump

PAGE 5 -- PUBLIC OFFICIALS

  • Trump Calls El-Sayed ‘Mohammad’ and Invokes His Presidential Naming Privileges.

    Donald Trump went to Dalton, Georgia, on October 16 and explained why he keeps calling Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed Mohammad. His defense, captured in a C-SPAN clip reproduced by the Daily Caller, was a little lesson in presidential authority: “I’m the president of the United States. I can call you whatever the hell I want.” Well, that settles the health care debate. The man has naming privileges. During the same rally at Dalton …

  • Trump Told Minnesota to Fight Back Against Somali Immigrants.

    President Donald Trump told Minnesotans to fight back against Somali immigrants in an October 8 Truth Social post. He described Minnesota as being taken over by that community, blamed it for statewide disorder and offered federal help. This was the president speaking to the public, not an anonymous account getting carried away in the replies. Here is the instruction in his own words: "The people of Minnesota must fight back." The post ends by demanding …

  • Trump's 2027 Refugee Plan Gives Priority to White South Africans.

    Trump's administration proposes up to 17,500 refugee admissions for fiscal year 2027, primarily for white South African Afrikaners. His signed decision added 10,000 places for Afrikaners in fiscal year 2026. Global Refuge reported on September 22 that all but three of the 12,904 refugees admitted that year as of its statement came from South Africa. The preference has a paper trail.

  • Laura Loomer Called Five Black Women "Ghetto." Asked to Explain, She Said "I Spoke the Truth."

    A note on the file first. This roll call is about Republicans: officials, candidates, the party. Laura Loomer is none of those on paper. She's a far-right activist. She's here anyway, because Donald Trump has publicly praised her and met with her at the White House, and because a Republican member of Congress looked at what she wrote and said the party owns it. We'll take her word for it. Angie Nixon is a state …

  • Trump Endorsed a Navy Vet Named Amir. MAGA Would Like a Refund.

    This site spends most of its time documenting the movement's cruelty toward outsiders. Today, a rarer specimen for the collection: the machine turning on a man it was explicitly instructed to love. Donald Trump endorsed Amir Hassan for Michigan's 8th Congressional District on Truth Social, with the standard trumpets: "It is my Great Honor to endorse Amir Hassan," praise for his Navy service, his law enforcement career, the works. Let us review the candidate's résumé, …

  • Follow-Up: Arizona's 5th Read Mark Lamb's Texts and Nominated Him With 58.7%

    Five weeks ago, this site laid out the record on Mark Lamb: the 2016 messages where "America's Sheriff" laughed along to a border vigilante's use of the n-word and riffed on it, the homophobic jokes, the years of sexting through his traditional-values brand, and the part that should have ended the conversation on its own... a sitting sheriff threatening to have a woman arrested to keep her quiet, now under investigation by the Pinal County …

  • "America's Sheriff" Wrote a Book About Traditional Values. His Phone Kept the Receipts.

    If you have spent any time in the Fox Cinematic Universe over the last decade, you know Mark Lamb. Cowboy hat, badge, square jaw, the whole action figure. Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona. Self-branded "America's Sheriff." Author, in 2020, of a book actually titled American Sheriff: Traditional Values in a Modern World. He ran for U.S. Senate on "God, Family, Freedom," lost the 2024 primary to Kari Lake (a sentence that should have been a …

  • Trump on Somali Americans: "Low IQs," "Stupid People," "Get the Hell Out of Here"

    Twice in ten weeks, the President of the United States stood at a podium and called Somali Americans stupid. January at the White House press briefing. March at a Cabinet meeting. Same material both times.

  • He Dimmed the Lights in the Oval Office and Played the Video. The Crosses Weren't Graves.

    President Ramaphosa of South Africa came to the White House on Wednesday for a trade meeting. Trump had the lights dimmed and played him a video purporting to prove a genocide of white farmers, including footage of white crosses he described as their graves. The crosses were a roadside protest memorial from 2020, not a burial site. A conspiracy theory born in postwar neo-Nazi circles was screened in the Oval Office, by the President, to …

  • Full, Complete and Unconditional. On Night One, He Pardoned Every Last One of Them.

    Hours after taking the oath, Trump signed Proclamation 10887: fourteen commutations by name, a "full, complete and unconditional pardon" for roughly 1,500 others, and orders to dismiss every pending January 6 case with prejudice. The flag carrier, the "Camp Auschwitz" sweatshirt, the man who thought Hitler "should have finished the job," the seditious-conspiracy chairman serving 22 years... all of it, erased in one signature on night one. Eight days ago the incoming vice president said …
