MIDDLEBORO REVIEW AND SO ON

Trump's Manufactured Minnesota Fraud, Homan’s Buried Bribery Scandal, and The DOJ’s Epstein Failures Collide While Democratic Momentum Surges Into The New Year

Here’s the breakdown


Happy New Year! 2026 isn’t just another number on the calendar—it’s the year that we’ll finally turn the tide against Trump and break his hold on power in the upcoming midterms.

We’re moving full speed ahead to rally the resistance. But we can’t fight the billion-dollar maga propaganda machine without your help.

So start your new year right by taking a stand with us and upgrading to a paid subscription today:


FACT CHECK: MINNESOTA VIRAL VIDEO

Lately, corporate media has been spreading the bogus narrative that a viral video from a maga propagandist sparked the Trump regime’s “massive investigation” into Minnesota childcare funding. In reality, this is clearly a calculated retaliation against Gov. Tim Walz.

Several claims in the video have since been debunked. For example, it claims that a dozen daycares that received federal funding were fake—when most are very real. But that didn’t stop the Trump regime from using this as a weapon to freeze funds and smear Walz, as if he were part of the alleged fraud.

Eventually, this entire scheme needs to be investigated. It’s clear there was some orchestration behind the scenes for all of these events. The bottom line is, I don’t believe these claims of fraud—coming from the most corrupt regime in our lifetime.

Walz stated: “This is Trump’s long game. We’ve spent years cracking down on fraudsters. It’s a serious issue—but this has been his plan all along. He’s politicizing the issue to defund programs that help Minnesotans.”

HOMAN’S SCANDAL EXPOSES MORE ROT

While we’re on the subject of scandals, let’s talk about corrupt border czar Tom Homan. It was just revealed that the regime knew—even before Trump took office—that Homan was recorded taking $50,000 in cash during an undercover FBI sting.

The bribery investigation would’ve surely blocked Homan from receiving a security clearance. But instead of throwing Homan out, they found ways to work around the normal background check process to make sure he was ushered into a senior role. This is pure corruption, and it must all be investigated further.

EPSTEIN SURVIVOR SLAMS TRUMP REGIME

One of the survivors of Epstein’s abuse, Danielle Bensky, is speaking out against the DOJ’s failure to release the Epstein files. Bensky said: “I think this rollout, first of all, was never meant to be a rollout. It was meant to be a hard deadline.”

Bensky added: “It’s just been handled so sloppily, and names have not been redacted when they should have been.”

The survivors deserve better. It’s time for the DOJ to follow the law and release ALL of the Epstein files. Enough with the games—get it done.

ANOTHER DEM WIN

Democrats scored another major win on Tuesday—this time in a special election for the Iowa state Senate. Renee Hardman, who was elected as the first Black female senator in the state’s history, pulled in nearly 71.4% of the vote.

The win tracks 26 points higher than Kamala Harris’s margin in the district in 2024, and prevents Iowa Republicans from having a supermajority in the Senate.

MAMDANI SWORN IN

Last night around midnight, Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as Mayor of New York City. NY AG Letitia James performed the ceremony.

Mamdani stated: “This is truly the honor and the privilege of a lifetime.” He was sworn in at an old decommissioned subway station near City Hall, which he said was a “testament to the importance of public transit to the vitality, the health and the legacy of our city.”

Seeing disgraced maga‑puppet Eric Adams replaced with Mamdani is a big sign of hope for the future. It’s proof that billionaires can lose, and Trump’s endorsement simply isn’t enough for Republicans to win anymore.

After ten grueling years of going toe-to-toe with Trump and his accomplices, there is no way I’m backing down now. Every single day last year we delivered hard-hitting news briefs that took a sledgehammer to maga propaganda.

And through our Watchdog Coalition, we ran one of the most powerful anti-maga operations ever. We also directed over 564,000 contacts to Congress and dominated social media trends—generating billions of impressions online every month.

We have no corporate overlords, no outside investors, and we cannot be stopped by this regime. Help us carry all of this momentum into the new year by upgrading to a paid subscription today:


Onward!

The JEWISH LASER QUEEN made sure she resigned after she qualified for all government benefits, 


This might be a stretch due to their rigged ballot system, 

At least voters rejected the BRAIN DEAD FOOTBALL PLAYER!


GOP businessman launches first ad in race for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s seat in Georgia

excerpt:

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) is required to call a special election within 10 days of Greene’s resignation. Once Kemp announces the special election, it must take place at least 30 days afterward.


All candidates running for Greene’s seat will be listed under one ballot regardless of party, with the top two vote-getters advancing to a runoff in no one candidate notches more than half the vote outright.


Greene’s seat went for Trump by close to 37 points in 2024, according to The Downballot, meaning it’s all but certain to remain in GOP hands.

The Trump Regime Is Rotting. Our Resistance Is Rising. Here’s Proof

 


The Trump Regime Is Rotting. Our Resistance Is Rising. Here’s Proof

Powerful voices are rising to meet Trump’s regime—and they’re not backing down


After Trump ranted during his “Cabinet” meeting for hours yesterday, I’m glad to be back with more great news for you. Powerful stories of people fighting this tyranny alongside us. Thanks for being here, let’s jump in.

BIG DEM WIN

Last night, Democrat Catelin Drey won the special election for an Iowa state Senate seat, breaking the GOP’s supermajority. Trump carried the district by 11 points last year, while Drey won by more than 10 points—a huge swing in a reliably red district.

FED GOVERNOR PUSHES BACK

Trump claimed he “fired” Federal Reserve Governor Dr. Lisa Cook, even though he doesn’t have the authority to do so.

Dr. Cook is pushing back—and plans to sue the regime over it. Dr. Cook stated: “Trump purported to fire me ‘for cause’ when no cause exists under the law.”

Few paid attention to LISA COOK's nomination & appointment, but she's IMPRESSIVE! 

She's also BLACK...this couldn't be TRUMP'S RACISM..NAW! 

There was a lengthy discussion on our LOCAL PBS STATION about LISA COOK's history & credentials that also focused on how few WOMEN are in ECONOMICS programs....that's why we need PBS/NPB for their research that corporate media is too lazy to address & prsent SOUNDBYTES, not information.

LISA COOK - WIKIPEDIA

What pressure is Fed's Lisa Cook under?

GOP REP. FORCED TO FACE THE TRUTH

In Bolivar, MO, GOP Rep. Mark Alford held a town hall—and it didn’t go well for him.

At one point, his constituent Fred Higginbotham said what most of us are thinking: “Get Trump out of office … The man is a dictator. He knows nothing about what he talks about.” Higginbotham went on to say: “You need to take your head out of Trump’s a** and start doing your representation of us.”

ANOTHER GOVERNOR STEPS UP

Washington Governor Bob Ferguson was one of many elected officials who received a disgusting threat letter from AG Pam Bondi in recent weeks. It warns of criminal charges for anyone who stands in the way of Trump’s abusive immigration tactics.

During a press conference, Ferguson responded: “Pam Bondi seems to believe that cavalierly citing criminal statutes and personally threatening me ... will result in compromising the values of my state. That is not going to happen.”

“Let me be very clear,” Ferguson said. “Washington State will not be bullied or intimidated by threats and legally baseless accusations.” Every elected official must push back like this.

DUCKWORTH SENDS A STRONG MESSAGE

At a press conference on Monday, Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth absolutely blasted Trump’s threat to send troops into Chicago.

Duckworth served in the military for decades—most of that in the National Guard. In 2004, she lost her legs after her helicopter was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade.

Calling it a “PR stunt” by a “tinpot dictator,” Duckworth said: “Trump’s actions are not about law and order—give me a break ... This is just another sad, desperate attempt by a small man, to distract the American people from ... the countless personal scandals he’s trying to sweep under the rug.” It sure is.

“Maybe if Donald Trump hadn’t dodged the draft so many times,” Duckworth added, “he would’ve actually learned something about keeping our country strong. But that is obviously too much to expect from cadet bone spurs.”

THE WORST “CABINET” MEETING EVER

I won’t repeat any of the garbage or lies spewed at the long regime meeting yesterday. But I did want to point out one bizarre moment. When advisor Steve Witkoff said his only wish was for Trump to win the Nobel Prize, these cult members clapped and nodded. Witkoff’s wish was not for peace—but for Trump to win a medal. Gross.

This regime is a grotesque, maniacal, and corrupt dumpster fire—and it’s what we’re up against every single day.

On top of our daily news brief, we run one of the biggest social media organizing campaigns in the world—and our Contact Congress initiative has reached lawmakers half a million times.

We’re doing all this, and so much more, with no advertisers, and no billionaire babysitters telling us to play nice with Trump. Which means 100% of our funding comes from our subscribers here on Substack.

So if you haven’t yet, please join us as a paid subscriber today, and help us keep up the fight:

Onward!

COMMENTS: 


Three things about Lisa Cook.

One, there's some question about the meaning of 'principle residence, and primary residence.'

Two, the SC probably will let the convicted felon Trump remove her, if only because the SC will give him the benefit of doubt on what 'for cause' means.

And three, Texas AG Ken Paxton was under investigation for mortgage fraud, he listed no less than three residences as his 'primary' residence.

Yet I fail to see Bill Pulte sending criminal complaints to AG Bondi on the Paxton accusations.

(Source: https://www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/ken-angela-paxton-mortgage-primary-residence-homestead-exemption/)

The hypocrisy is stunning.


Fred Higginbotham, not only do I absolutely love your name, but you stated your message clearly, beautifully and for ALL of us! Wake UP, GOP SO-CALLED REPS!


I wish the Tennessee reps were brave enough to show up instead they bootlick DJT many times daily on social media,

Take a look at GOOD LIARS - it's difficult to believe the CULT MEMBERS are so ill-infomed: 


https://youtu.be/5IjmQfT8Wn0?si=n2HIYjjm1fX_ChRh     

Trump, MAGA et al have destroyed the ECONOMY & put the nation on the path to BANKRUPTCY, the Orange Turd's specialty....the CULT is too BRAIN DEAD to figure out that the law abiding 'immigrants' who are being illegally deported because their complexion is DARK are the ones doing the WORK that Americans shun like PICKING CROPS that are now rotting in fields. 


JOHN DEAN wrote this in 2017 & it was so accurate that I refer back to it for the INSIGHT - worth reading in its entirety: 


excerpt: 

We know enough about authoritarian supporters from research, and history, to know it will be very hard to change their minds about the leader they adore.


They are extremely ethnocentric, dividing the world sharply into people in their in-group, and automatically disliking all others. They feel politicians who promote minority rights and immigration discriminate against them. Donald Trump tells them they are right. He is their champion.

They are highly dogmatic. They get their ideas from others in the in-group, especially from their leader, not from evidence and logic. They say there is no evidence that will make them change their minds. They’re quite comfortable believing “alternate facts.”

They get great satisfaction from being part of a large movement. Being in a cohesive crowd at rallies thrills them because they silently tell one another, just by being there, that they are powerful and right. They create an echo chamber that reinforces the belief that all the good people think like they do.

They severely limit their sources of information. They get the news that they want to get. This also produces an echo chamber when the news sources they trust are copying each other and relaying Trump’s message.

They have highly compartmentalized minds. When an unpleasant truth forces its way into their awareness, they do not try to integrate the other things they believe with it. Instead they put it in a box and isolate it from the rest of their thinking, which proceeds as if the truth never existed.

Put all this together and you get an idea how hard it will be to change their minds about Donald Trump.


One can expect some of Trump’s followers to waver if the months ahead are thick with damaging revelations like those that brought down the Nixon White House. But a repeat of “Watergate-type scandals” may not damage Trump as much as they did Nixon.
