Well, I guess we have to put the party favors away for a while longer. He reemerged. He just had some old-guy thing that kept him out of the limelight for a short time. Maybe he was personally reviewing his participation in Epstein’s activities on the DVDs we know the FBI collected when it was still a decently run, respectable organization. He likes those DVDs. They remind him of the good old days when men raping children was just party time.
Meanwhile, Nancy Mace was in a briefing with an Epstein survivor and got so upset listening to what happened to those girls she had to leave early so she could get back to protecting President Pedophile from facing the consequences of his actions. She was crying. She was visibly upset. She’s a victim of Sexual Assault, herself, and she said she had a panic attack and had to get out fast. Oh, but she’ll still defend her Precious.
In fairness to her and for clarity, she DID sign the petition to release all of the Epstein files. That seems contradictory, but both statements are true. She signed the petition but she also defended President Pedophile. That indicates her belief that his name isn’t in the files – at least in any way that might implicate him. I have a hard time believing he would go to so much trouble to protect the contents of those files if Mace is correct.
Meanwhile, the Epstein/Trump victims held a presser and have announced their intention to create a client list of their own. These women were there. THEY know who abused them. In my mind, it’s about time. I mean, I understand why they’ve stayed silent for so long. Running into the buzzsaw of MAGA wrath (a deadly sin, btw) would discourage just about anyone, but as a group and now that they’re known anyway? Full disclosure is their best protection and the sooner the better.
It looks as though MAGA Mike the Johnson’s ploy of running away early from Congress back in July hoping people would forget about Epstein and Maxwell and Donny and the sex trafficking ring they ran and/or enjoyed has failed. The news cycle DID move on. But now the news cycle has moved back.
Oh, one last thing. 47, liar that he is, keeps calling this thing a democratic hoax. This is a possible learning opportunity for MAGA. They KNOW the Epstein files are no hoax. They’ve known it for a long time. Right now is an opportunity for them to realize that “democratic hoax” is just a lie he tells to protect himself. If they can just connect TWO freaking dots, just two…
Yeah, okay, never mind…

Every once in a while, I just sort of… reconnect with some stupid thing 47 has done. Most recently, it’s his dedication to fossil fuels. He has it in for wind power because Scotland built some windmills within visual distance of a golf course the Drumpfster owns. Once he got down on wind, he lumped all renewables together and doesn’t like any of them.
Do you know the first solar cell was invented by Bell Laboratories in New Jersey? Now Donny is turning his back on the technology in favor of coal and gas. Do you know who is NOT turning their backs on renewables in favor of 19th century dominance? The rest of the world. Everyone else will continue to benefit from the developing technology. They’ll install renewables and realize the savings and benefits of using them.
Other countries will take the lead. No, that’s not quite right. Other countries will accept the lead that’s being freely handed to them on a gaudy, gold platter by a grotty, orange moron. And he’s just… giving away the US lead – because Scotland built some windmills he didn’t like. So, naturally, he has to be all in on yesterday’s technology across the board.
He’s not just giving up the health benefits of using renewables here in the US. He’s giving up financial benefits. Not only can the US lead in the area of renewables, we profit from that. There’s money to be made – and lost, if he sets us back – but set us back, he will. He already has.
Get ready for Conestoga wagons to replace 18-wheelers. Sure, the big trucks pollute well, but they’re just too fast. Donny likes Conestoga wagons better, Conestoga wagons it will be. I guess his path to world dominance is to sit down and watch everyone else advance. Really, it’s just plain stupid…

Round two seems to have gone to Alabama. When Donny emerged from whatever hidey-hole he was hidden in, it was to announce that the Space Command would be moved from Colorado to Alabama. The same idea came up during the Biden years (so, of course, Donny claimed it as his own) but was rejected by Biden. Space Command stayed where it was.
The National Space Defense Center (NSDC) at Schriever AFB, Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station, and the satellite communication capabilities at Peterson AFB represent the nation’s premier military and intelligence space coordination entities and people decided it would be best to keep the Space Command near them.
But I presume Donny is moving the headquarters to Huntsville because he likes their nickname, “Rocket City,” Alabama. Okay, that’s a joke. In fact, he may not do it at all. His threat to do it is to punish Colorado. They still use mail-in ballots, the safest and most convenient form of voting. (And you KNOW that’s true because Donny says otherwise.) That’s the reason he cited. Mail-in ballots.
Right. That’s SO petty and stupid, you suspect I’m just projecting stupidity onto the guy, right? Here’s the quote, “The problem I have with Colorado, one of the big problems, they do mail-in voting,” he said during the announcement. “When a state is for mail-in voting, that means they want dishonest elections, because that’s what that means. So that played a big factor also.” See? It’s not me pretending he’s stupid. It’s HIM, actually being stupid.
Now, obviously, if Colorado eliminates mail-in voting, as Donny is extorting them to do, he will likely change his mind and leave the command where it is. But Colorado MUST comply or they’ll lose hundreds of jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars in federal spending. Not to mention the damage he’ll do to the Space Command just to try to make a political point.
I’ll tell you this: Every time I hear some new “thought” from this guy I think of Bugs Bunny’s description: ‘What a maroon…’
