Broadcasters should be ordered to stop running Trump commercials that appear to violate US laws, consumer advocacy group Public Citizen said today in a complaint to the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Trade Commission. The ads appear to violate laws against using taxpayer funds for propaganda and a law that restricts political activity by federal government employees, the group said.
“The most recent of these taxpayer-funded campaign ads, entitled ‘The Final Battle,’ is a copied version of an ad that the Trump campaign committee issued in the 2024 election,” Public Citizen wrote. “In dead serious black-and-white footage, Trump is seen marching down a corridor with a stern look, while the audio blares: ‘This is the final battle. With you at my side, we will demolish the deep state. We will expel the warmongers from our government.’ A notice at the bottom of the screen announces: ‘Paid for by the US government.’”
Trump also says in the ad, “We will cast out the communists, Marxists, and fascists. We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country, we will rout the fake news media, and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all.” It uses the same video and audio from an ad Trump used in 2024, with the main difference being that the 2024 version was paid for by Trump’s campaign committee instead of the US government. The White House claims its recent ads are public service announcements.
“We will expel the warmongers from our government.”
Weird way to announce your resignation, but I’ll take it
Surely this is the time there is accountability, right? Right?

Welcome to America.
Imagine if this was the reason he finally goes to jail
CONSEQUENCES?
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT IT?
I’M TIRED OF ASKING THIS QUESTION!
I’VE BEEN SAYING FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW, IT FEELS LIKE WATCHING A CROOK BREAK INTO EVERY HOUSE ON THE STREET, SHOOT EVERYBODY, STEAL ALL THE VALUABLES, AND SET THE HOUSES ON FIRE WHILE THE POLICE JUST STAND THERE AND SAY “THAT MIGHT BE ILLEGAL”
Wow, he sounds just like hitler…
Also,
We will expel the warmongers from our government
He is the warmonger in our fucking government.

Who’s gonna give that order? Those agencies are run by trump-appointees…
Allegedly you say?
Oh look, YET ANOTHER thing Trump and his Epstein cronies violated.
So you know what I thought was particularly outrageous? Those Israel superbowl ads. I don’t understand how a foreign country was allowed to buy propaganda airtime in the United States. They’ve run so many ads. Is our government just defunct? We are persecuting night time comedians for Talarico interviews but propaganda gets green lit.
Add it to the crime pile over there in the corner. Wait, sorry; it’s grown a bit since I last checked. You want the crime pile sitting on the horizon that looks vaguely like Mt. Whitney.

Operation Mockingbird was over fifty years ago. Fake news is older than you think; we orchestrate events at home and abroad to allow the news to report on it in certain ways and shape public opinion. We’re sneaky like that in the CIA.
He doesn’t care. He’s going to keep breaking laws until held accountable and nobody has the balls to actually do that.
We won’t live long enough for face consequences so in effect he doesn’t have any.
The fuck does “balls” have to do with it?
Either you’re a complete fucking moron about what can and cannot be done to stop him, or you’re calling for violence against him as a way to change this, which makes you a different kind of complete fucking moron.
Guy who controls the cops and has absolute immunity for any crime he commits according to the Supreme Court commits another crime.
So just charge him. Oh, wait, the SCOTUS sez you can’t do that.
So, anyways…
Oh we’ve got him now boys!

But Kamala laughed funny.
That and a coordinated voter suppression campaign that ramped up massively in 2024.
Well looks like Wednesday to me.
