Morbid Fascination…

I shouldn’t say it, I suppose, but I’ve been morbidly fascinated, watching this spitting battle between The Drumpfster and MTG like one looks at an accident on the side of the road. You don’t want to know but you kind of need to see. Do you recognize the car? Might it be someone you know under that yellow cover? In their case, who’s going to win? Spoiler alert: everything we’ve seen supports the idea that the devil takes care of his own so MTG doesn’t stand a chance. The fact that MTG is right never really enters into it.

I was watching her the other day and I had the feeling that she really doesn’t understand quite HOW she became an outsider, here. It, just for a moment, felt more like she thinks she’s helping Donny get on a better path. Consider, if you honestly, genuinely do not believe 47 is incriminated in the Epstein files in any way, what would be the problem with releasing everything, all at once, and let the chips fall where they may, right?

And I honestly and genuinely suspect that MTG considers Donny above suspicion, so what’s the problem? Anyone can see that this whole sex-with-minors thing is a problem for the dotard, as it should be. No, it’s not a serious problem for MAGA. They figure if Donny had sex with kids, he had a reason. Maybe he didn’t KNOW she was 13. It was probably for the good of the country or some such. Some of them wish they knew how to get to that island, too.

But for those of us still operating with a functioning moral compass – and that is the two-thirds of us who aren’t MAGA, along with the rest of the world – yeah, it’s a problem. And from her point of view, MTG is right. If Donny’s not in the files anyway, why not just release them and let the entire issue dry up and blow away? She seems unable to make the final leap.

If Donny’s not implicated, there’s no reason to withhold the files. Donny is withholding the files. Take the leap Marjorie. Connect the dots. If Donny’s not implicated, there’s no reason to withhold the files. Donny is withholding the files. It’s such a short step. You can DO it, Marjorie. C’mon, make the connection. If Donny’s not implicated, there’s no reason to withhold the files. Donny is withholding the files.

The waiting is the hardest part…

Meanwhile, a trove of who’s-who photos were released by the Epstein estate. Now we’re going to get to watch the left highlight all of the known conservatives that show up in the pictures and the right highlight all of the known Dems that show up in the pictures, each side trying to out-evil each other.

In the interest of fairness, it should be clearly stated that simply appearing in a photo with Jeffrey Epstein is not proof of moral failure. I suspect Jeffrey and Ghislaine were careful about whom they invited to play along. I suspect the infamous airplane served as a convenient place to “vet” a potential “guest,” so one might find themselves enjoying a convenient plane ride that never became anything more. But we KNOW there were some (many?) who DID, shall we say, pursue “opportunities.”

It’s the group that survived the vetting and visited the island I’m interested in. Those who appear in the DVDs that were secretly recorded and labeled with the date, a girl’s name, and the perpetrators name. The DVDs that, likely, formed the basis of the blackmail that “earned” Epstein enough money to own an plane and an island. I don’t care if you took a plane ride. I care if you took opportunities to engage in sex with teenagers. If you did, I don’t care what your politics are. You should pay a price for what you did to those girls…

Look, only a moron of the highest order would think it’s some kind of good idea to allow Artificial Intelligence (AI) free rein with little to no oversight and no regulation. So, of course, Donny’s all in with little to no oversight and no regulation of AI. He has signed an Executive Order denying states the right to regulate AI as they see fit because as everyone knows, conservatives have always stood against states rights, right?

Gavin Newsom, once again, has taken the lead in opposing this stupidity, too. Executive Orders do NOT carry the weight of law. Only Congress can make Federal laws. Congress’ cowardly abdication of that obligation doesn’t change that.

There’s a thing out there called the Drake Equation. The Drake Equation is a mathematical formula that attempts to suggest a number of communicative extra-terrestrial civilizations in the galaxy. Frank Drake wasn’t trying to actually count the actual number. He was trying to stimulate debate on the possibilities. Since his original formula was presented in 1961, it has been modified.

One of the modifications is, “The number of civilizations that has survived it’s technological age.” That’s where we are and, as of this writing, it’s not looking like we’re going to be counted among those who survived. Donny’s desperate clinging to fossil fuels we don’t need anymore will definitely be a factor, but shoving AI into anything and everything that can have AI shoved into it will certainly do serious long-term harm, as well. But by all means, let’s just keep blindly careening at wild speeds into an unknown we can’t see, control, or understand, all the while trusting the same billionaires who have put us where we are today. I’m sure it will be okay…

Look, would you PLEASE just read the US Constitution? Please? It’s not that long. You can find it online. You can choose between reading the “as amended” version (the one I recommend) and the original with the amendments listed at the end. Yeah, it’s a bit dry but it’s not written in “herebys” and “wherefores.” It’s written in plain English. Well, some of it IS a bit archaic. Still, the point is, you can understand it without a law degree.

There are just truckloads of debates in this submerging, once-great nation that could be settled quickly and easily if people would just take a few minutes, just a few, and read the basis of the nation. Thank you for your attention to this matter…

Why Would They Do THAT?

The other day, Wednesday, in fact, Donny said he didn’t understand why the US doesn’t get immigrants from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, or the like. He was blaming Biden for his own failures in a speech on inflation, so how he rambled over to immigration is anybody’s guess but there he was, bitching about people who come here from impoverished nations and wishing they would come from, well, you know, whiter places.

“Why is it we only take people from shithole countries, right?” he asked the audience. “Why can’t we have some people from Norway, Sweden? Just a few.” At another point he added: “Do you mind sending us a few people? Send us some nice people… But we always take people from Somalia. Places that are a disaster, right? Filthy, dirty, disgusting, ridden with crime.”

Okay, so it’s pretty obvious he wants more white people to come here and fewer not-white people. So far, the only group he has supported immigrating to the US is white Afrikaners, from South Africa. South Africa is a poorer country. It’s considered “emerging.” That’s the term for a country that is no longer Third World, but doesn’t yet measure up to First World.

One in five people in South Africa live in desperate poverty. That sounds like a shithole country, to me, but he’ll accept the white folk, anyway. So if he’ll accept white folks from shithole countries, then it seems the “shithole country” part has less to do with it and the “white” part has more to do with it. Feel free to toss “racist” on Donny’s pile, no, mountain of sins. But, just for fun, lets pretend it’s not just dripping racism and he really, honestly wonders why people from, say, Denmark, don’t try to come to the US.

Have you looked around recently? Look, if you live in a place that is “filthy, dirty, disgusting, ridden with crime,” the US might still look pretty good to you. But why would you want to come to the US from a decent, civilized, First-World country? At BEST, the US gets it’s own, new designation: we’re a “Submerging Nation.” That’s a country moving OUT of First World status and into something… less developed.

I’ve looked around at my fellow Americans. In a lot of cases, I could see Scandinavians coming to the US to visit, like people go to the zoo to see the monkeys. Will we actually throw our poop at the wall? Sadly, we might. That’s pretty much the level of intellect of about a third of Americans today. Yeah, I can see them coming to witness the freak show first-hand. But to come here to stay?

Why would anybody walk away from their much, much better lives in their Social Democracies that provide for the largest number of people, and trade that in for the realities of the daily life struggle in the US? So, yeah, if you come from Afghanistan, Haiti, or Somalia, the US probably still looks pretty good to you. But if you know what a First World, civilized nation should look like? The US is little more than an oddities stop on a visit – and even that is becoming less and less true…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s just so…trumpian. It’s Donny all over. Classic 47. He creates problems with his impulses. Sometimes quite large problems. THEN someone explains to him why he can’t do what he’s trying to do, then he tries to fix the problem. Then, of course, he wants credit – maybe even an award – for undoing the damage he did in the first place.

A Washington DC non-profit has filed a lawsuit against Donny over the destruction of the East Wing of the White House. The East Wing of the White House is going to be a little harder to fix, having been completely demolished with no permits and no plan going forward. I mean, sure, he has concepts of a plan but no architectural drawings. The architect had a sense of taste and decency and, as we all know, Donny can’t stand that. Donny ONLY understands disgustingly gaudy and grossly ostentatious.

So, despite the fact that the ballroom is already much larger than the White House, itself, Donny wishes it was bigger. (Gee, projection much?) The architect and Donny “debated” the topic for a short time, then Donny fired the architect he had hand-picked for the project.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation sued The Felon yesterday, seeking to halt his barfroom project until it receives congressional approval and undergoes independent reviews. Yes, this could be an example of over-regulation but the US Capital has been a designed space since it’s inception. There are rules about building styles and such.

The ONLY thing I want to see happen with that ballroom once Donny has shuffled off this mortal coil is to knock the effing thing down and put the East Wing back. We’ll want to hide every aspect of our nightmare under the moron and knocking down that garish monstrosity will be an excellent place to start. Then again, maybe people can block the thing from being built at all. That would make it easier to put things back to right once he’s gone…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The GOP in the House have finally released a “health care plan.” The main points? ‘Try not to get sick and, if you do, be a billionaire.’ That seems to be the key to survival in this once-great nation, ‘be a billionaire.’ If YOUR daddy wasn’t rich, what the heck is wrong with you? All you’re going to need is a job that pays $480,769.23 an hour and you’ll make it in no time. And our dumbass misleader wonders why people won’t immigrate here from better countries…

Failing and Fumbling…

Well, I did not expect the start of the day to look like this. The US seized a tanker off the coast of Venezuela yesterday. Oh, did I forget to mention it’s an oil tanker? No one is even pretending it’s part of a “drug war.” NOW, suddenly, Donny – who couldn’t find his own ass with both hands and a road map – yeah, THAT Donny, uncovered a cabal of oil cheats?

Pam Bondi got to make up the announcement. She said the tanker had been sanctioned by the US for “multiple years” due to its “involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations.” Terrorists, terrorists, terrorists! That’s just a catch-phrase these days. I think that, no matter where they are, when they look into the camera menacingly, scrunch their faces up, and spit the word “Terrorists!” it should be followed by a tension building, and foreboding fanfare. Technology in the world is getting better all the time. The regime should be able to find a small, hand-held player for such a moment. It will spice up the drama.

I think Donny is dragging the US into yet another oil war. He talked about the drugs – which, by the way, his base believes completely. He claimed drugs were being shipped out of Venezuela that don’t get shipped out of Venezuela. MAGA thinks those motorboats aren’t trying to reach the US mainland. They’re either going up the coast to Mexico or they’re heading to a ship waiting for them. When I asked why nobody said anything about waiting ships? Crickets. When I pointed out that, if true, ships might be going anywhere? Crickets. MAGA media gives them a story, not the details.

It doesn’t matter, though. Donny doesn’t CARE about drugs. That was just an excuse. Think Saddam and his WMDs, despite the fact that Saddam didn’t HAVE WMDs. He DID have oil and the US took that for a LONG, LONG time. Gratis. It was a light, sweet deal for US oil companies. (It’s actually Brent Crude, I think, but I liked the joke.) Donny is working to replicate the feat in Venezuela.

So, here we go again. The US gets into a brand new oil war, THIS time to procure a resource we shouldn’t need anymore. We have alternatives and we should be using them. How many lives will be lost? 87 and counting, so far. How much money will be spent?

Look, I don’t think that everything happening in today’s modern world is necessarily better but I don’t think it’s automatically worse, either. Renewable energy technology is better, long-term. It’s better for the environment and nobody has to bomb anybody to gain sunlight. It’s just…there. And, should the day come it’s NOT there anymore, human beings will have bigger problems than the cost of a gallon at the pump. MUCH bigger problems.

Donny SO desperately wants a peace prize, he’s willing to accept a made up knock-off from a soccer organization, but he’s STILL starting a war for all the world to see. I suspect he actually believes he’s picking this fight with Venezuela cleverly, fooling everyone. Blaming Venezuela, I guess, means nobody will notice what the US has been doing. But the US has been doing it badly. The world knows this will NOT be a righteous war. Team Evil really needs to be sent to the Hague and put on trial for crimes against humanity. And, the sooner, the better…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you’re surprised by this, you’re definitely MAGA. None of the pretend indictments against Letitia James or James Comey or anybody else the current incompetent regime accuses of mortgage fraud have held up in court. None. But they DID prompt reporters at ProPublica – real reporters, not MAGA media, opinion-spewing talking heads – to look into other mortgages, maybe those taken by some other potentially interested parties – like Donald Trump, for example.

So… guess who actually DOES commit mortgage fraud by claiming rental properties as primary residences to get better loan rates. Go ahead, take a guess. I’ll wait…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh, sure. He imposes tariffs and wipes out the US soy market (again). Then, because his tariffs wiped out the soy market, he’s going to (again) give billions of dollars to the farmers who prefer to earn their living than need handouts. Donny gets to CLAIM he’s helping the poor, down-trodden farmer, but he’s really helping the banks that hold the notes these farmers need to pay back. If the farmers crash and burn, the banks are hurt. Donny NEVER cares about the little guy.

The regime is trying to convince the rubes that China stopped buying soy while Biden was running the show because they suffer from BBS, Blame Biden Syndrome, and blame Biden for everything. The fact that it’s so easy to check these details and understand them as the lies they are doesn’t bother them because they know the rubes will NOT check. They just believe…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you’re not a football fan, please bear with me, here. This deserves to be noted. In a Monday night game on the 8th of this month, the Quarterback of the Philadelphia Eagles, Jalen Hurts, threw a pass. It was intercepted by a guy named Da’Shawn Hand, of the LA Chargers. Hand was starting to return the interception when he was chased down by Eagles running back Will Shipley, who knocked the ball free from, well, Hand’s hands. The ball popped free and shot straight forward – into Jalen Hurt’s hands. At this point, Hurts started with the ball, threw it, and has it again, okay?

So, Hurts began to run with the ball but immediately had the ball punched out by Chargers defensive tackle Jamaree Caldwell from behind and it rolled forward about 10 yards before Chargers linebacker Troy Dye recovered the ball. It was something to see. Word is, this play makes Jalen Hurts the first player in NFL history to turn the ball over twice in a single play. How’s THAT for a record that will never fall? I’m not sure it’s a stat Hurts is going to want people to focus on, though…

Abominations…

It’s a United States government office, but Donny has plastered his name on it. It was, properly, the United States Institute of Peace. Now it’s called the ‘Donald Jessica Trump Institute of Peace,’ or something like that. (At least, that’s what I think his middle name is. I learned it from Randy Rainbow, but can’t verify Randy’s research methods.) After all, Donny DID “win” the FIFA Peace Prize they made up for him. And he HAS murdered many people in the Caribbean, supported genocide in Gaza, AND refused to help victims of an illegal invasion in Ukraine, despite a promise from the US that we would help Ukraine if Russia attacked in exchange for giving up nukes.

Donny fired the hand-picked architect he selected to build his new White House abomination. Like other things in his world, it’s not big enough to make him happy. He really, really wishes it were bigger and he keeps looking for someone who can help him out. That effing barfroom is already bigger than the White House, itself, and he wants to make it bigger? Someone ought to explain to him about gaudy ostentation. Then again, he just fired the architect who tried…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In Donny’s diminished and delusional state, he has randomly decided that if a person is rich and was prosecuted for crimes under the Biden administration, the charges must be made up and the prosecution a fraud. He has no basis for this belief. He presses it because HE was nearly convicted for so many of his crimes during the Biden administration and he is STILL trying to convince someone – anyone – that he was being framed.

He wasn’t. He was being prosecuted for crimes he committed, if one believes the evidence. The only reason he wasn’t convicted is because he and the Heritage Foundation had a long-term plan for a coup that included corrupt (read: loyal to a fault) judges named by the Federalist Society. Many of those “judges” had been put in place already and they helped a brother out, you know?

So when he received a request for a pardon from one-time Democratic House Representative Henry Cuellar of Texas – along with a generous “donation” check, of course – he granted it. Cuellar apparently said the magic words, “Biden did it for political reasons.” In my mind, it’s rather important that Cuellar and his wife, who was also charged, were not yet convicted. They were charged with accepting bribes.

Apparently, when Donny granted the pardon, he assumed Cuellar would be so grateful he would switch parties and run as a Republican. Okay, so, first, run?!? He was busted taking bribes. How does one run for office, having accepted a pardon to escape the felonies he was facing? I guess if you’re brazen enough, you run anyway. This IS happening in Texas, after all.

And Cuellar IS running again. He filed the paperwork. He’s running in Texas as a Democrat and Donny is irritated about that. Donny expects loyalty he never, ever displays himself. I’d like to say that Texas is facing something of an IQ test to see if they’re dumb enough to elect an accused felon to public office, but they’ve already elected a convicted felon to public office so I guess the test is finished and the Texans can put their pencils down…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Apparently, this doesn’t make sense to Linda McMahon, the Secretary of Destroying Education, but it turns out, if one reduces staff, one also reduces productivity. When this wrecking ball of a regime came in and started smashing things, most of the workforce of the Department of Education was laid off. That was supposed to save money. It didn’t, because a penny saved somewhere in government gets shoved into Donny’s pocket instead.

Look it up yourself. Donny came in and thrashed the government by laying off thousands of employees, yet his maladministration has spent more money so far than any other group in power in US history – even his own, who held the spending record before THIS group of clowns set the current record.

Now McMahon is calling back a bunch of Department of Education employees in an effort to reduce the backlog she created when she laid them off – but only temporarily. I guess if one hasn’t procured new employment by now, going back makes some sense but I’m not sure I would if I had an alternative. Why help the Bozos be clowns? Woeful mismanagement brings woeful results. Are we surprised? Every day, the extreme incompetence of this regime comes into clearer and clearer focus…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, the Niners didn’t play this weekend. Bye week, you know. Still, they improved their playoff position. Pretty neat trick. It’s one of the things I like about this time of year. If you have a shot at making the playoffs, EVERY game you play now is very important. Many of the games other teams play become important, too. The Niners moved from the seventh seed to the sixth because the Green Bay Packers beat the Chicago Bears.

Meanwhile, game by game it’s looking like the Kansas City Chiefs’ dynasty is coming to an end. It happens. I learned ALL about it, the hard way, when the Bill Walsh Niner dynasty finally came to it’s end. The NFL is kind of structured to make dynasties hard to maintain. Eventually, your team will be picked apart by other teams. The players you keep? They get old. In football, “old” starts at about 32.

This is only tangentially related but I hear Taylor Swift has set a date for her upcoming nuptials. June, 2026. This means nothing to me. I’m not saving the date as I don’t expect an invitation. BUT, Tay-Tay is marrying Travis Kelce, the star Tight End for the Kansas City Chiefs. In June, Kelce would normally be in ‘football’ mode, getting ready for the upcoming season. THIS June, he’ll be in ‘gettin’ married’ mode. To me, this date foreshadows Kelce’s impending retirement, yet another sign of the decline of a dynasty…

Dates That Live In Infamy…

Today, Sunday, December 7th, 2025, marks the 84th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, killing 2,403 Americans. It was a tactical success for Japan but a strategic failure. They didn’t hit some of the most important targets of their attack. Oh, AND, (spoiler alert) Japan lost the war in the end.

Or maybe we all did. WWII changed the face of the planet and, upon further review, maybe not for the better. WWII brought about a new world order and, for a time, it looked like it might be an improvement. But we can all count on self-serving, self-important blowhards to decide they “deserve” more than anybody else to come along and ruin things for everybody.

Which brings us back to Donny and the One-Percent-serving Heritage Foundation and all of the damage and pain they’re intentionally inflicting on Americans and the world. History repeats (or rhymes) in roughly 80 year cycles. Roughly 80 years ago, the US pushed back authoritarian Fascism with extreme violence. Now authoritarian fascism is back.

I think Americans are hoping to stop all of this nonsense with the 2026 “elections,” non-violently. I have a hard time believing that the group that led this coup in the first place might let it slip away by allowing honest elections. I’ll wait and see. I’ll hope. But you’d better keep your powder dry…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Twice, recently, I’ve seen Donny act exactly like a three-year-old boy who sees a big truck – and then the driver honks the horn for kid. We’ve all seen that young man. He’s the happiest he’s ever going to be until he discovers his newest favorite toy. The first time I saw Donny act like that was when he was hanging out with the Saudi murderer, you know, the one who killed Jamal Khashoggi, that guy. Yeah, Mohammed bin Salman, that’s the one.

The second time was this FIFA “Peace Prize” he was “awarded” on Friday. To be clear, FIFA does NOT have a long, storied history of awarding it’s well-known and prestigious “Peace Prize” to someone who has made a great impact on world peace for the benefit of nations. Instead, FIFA seems to be a rather corrupt organization that takes bribes and oversees world soccer. FIFA made up their “Peace Prize” for Donny and, one presumes, when Donny isn’t a factor in their world anymore, the “FIFA Peace Prize” will be a thing of the past.

But he was SO happy, giddy even. I thought he was going to literally clap his hands and jump up and down, “My peace prize! My peace prize!” It was scary. That dude is old. Jumping up and down on those cankles could break him in more ways than one. Old bones shatter. It was also mind-boggling. Can you imagine demanding a peace prize and then actually believing you’ve done something to “earn” it?

Donny grabbed that medal and put it around his own neck so fast I thought it might hit him in the face. (Full disclosure: I would have LAUGHED!) Then he stood, wearing his fake award, BEAMING. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a happier boy – even when the “Big Truck” honks.

This is a large part of the reason he’s as petty as he is: secrets he knows about himself. On some level, he knows he’s a fraud and he knows this is a fake award, created to placate his massive unquenchable ego. He acts like he’s done something to earn it but he knows that everybody knows – the thing was “awarded” by FIFA, fercrissakes. HE has to know it’s a meaningless award. And because HE knows the whole thing is trumpery, but wants YOU to believe he actually accomplished something, he gets insecure and belligerent.

Tough cookies, there, Donny. Most of the world knows you to be a fraud and we have always known you to be a fraud. You can act like the biggest assoholic on the planet, we’ll all still know…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Speaking of recognizing Donny as the liar, conman, grifter, and general waste of human flesh that he is, it looks like there might be a bit of fraying at the edges of MAGA. It’s hard to say, for sure. MAGA isn’t going to confess their error, most especially not to me. I expect their support to drift away quietly. They’ll wonder in their own minds. If/When the scales fall from their eyes, the MAGA regalia will quietly disappear. They won’t fall out for rallies. They won’t come out to vote. They’ll get quieter in social media. They’ll just… step away.

So, instead of waiting for the mea culpa, we have to watch for signs of separation. Maybe they’re real, maybe not, but here’s one I’ve been hearing about recently. There’s a very definite date – well, dates – looming for Republicans who may have been caught up in MAGA thrall, but aren’t true MAGA in their hearts. Filing deadlines.

The major threat Donny represents to candidates is his ability to “Primary” them. That is, if he gets his knickers in a twist at someone, he can press another, more MAGA-friendly candidate to run. That might cost a Republican office-holder their phony-baloney job and they might lose all of that beautiful lucre that keeps them so happy. So they comply.

At the same time, one does not have to be Nostradamus to see what is going on with the right, these days. Donny can say all day and half the night that prices are down at the grocery store. Then, we ALL walk into grocery stores and – RATS! – prices are still going up. Donny can tell us until he’s blue in the face that medical care costs won’t go up. But the letters have gone out. Every American and every MAGA has seen the new, definitely-not-improved numbers.

Donny promised no more foreign entanglements. Not only has he NOT ended the major foreign wars he promised would be so easy to end, he’s actively ginning up a completely new, completely unnecessary conflict. Instead of less foreign entanglement, we’re getting more, like it or not. He promised to drain the swamp. He IS the swamp. By every measure, he’s the swampiest swamp monster ever to swamp the swamp.

And it is NOT that he is “just doing what they all do, just more transparently.” In the first place, taking bribes and committing crimes transparently doesn’t make them better. But no President in history has ever been so deeply involved with bribes, crimes, grifts, and cons. Everything, everything, EVERYTHING this boy does is about shoving more money into his insatiable pockets – YOUR money.

The point is, this has become SO apparent, even MAGA sees it and cons in Congress who have been compliant but not truly MAGA? They have to win back their seats in an environment where it’s clear and undeniable that Republicans hate America and Americans. That’s a pretty hard run, right there. So the moment the filing deadlines pass, that is, the moment there’s no immediate danger that Donny might primary them, they can start to separate themselves from Donny and the MAGA nightmare, hoping they haven’t already been too tarred.

The final filing dates vary from state to state but, generally speaking, they all come around August 25th, give or take. I know, that’s a long time from now. These pricks can do a LOT of damage between now and then. But let’s see how GOP candidates react after that date…

Sleepy Don…

It has certain side effects. It can cause drowsiness. Of course, so can simply being a dotard, an old, old man suffering mental decline. He’s been falling asleep a LOT in public recently. We never saw “Sleepy Joe” sleeping. Sleepy Donny, on the other hand? Oh, he’s snoozing more and more. Hey, at least when he’s sleeping, he’s not hurting anybody.

Trump sleeping instead of working

It can cause bruising at the infusion site, for example, his hand. I presume they didn’t use his arm for the infusion because it can be difficult to use blood vessels in the arms of people with severe cardiovascular disease. But if they could have used the arm, it would have saved a bunch of questions. We were told this bruise is because he shakes so many hands. Uh-huh.

Trump has a bruise on his hand.

It can cause swelling, bleeding, and/or fluid leakage into the brain, requiring repeated monitoring MRIs. He’s getting the MRIs. Team Evil is just lying about why. But then, they lie about everything.

A letter regarding Trump's Nov, 25 MRI

Oh, the “it” in question? That’s an early Alzheimer’s medication called ‘Leqembi.’ The infusions happen every couple of weeks to monthly, depending upon the patient. The bruise on his hand and the near-constant falling asleep during meetings we’re seeing more and more of? The MRI? Alzheimer’s medication.

It’s kind of poetic justice. HE is being visited by every damnable lie he told about Joe Biden. He’s already wearing the chain he’s forging in life, making it link by link and yard by yard. Dear MAGA: Your Precious has Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s is fatal. He’s dying. His brain is dying faster than his body.

I’m not interested in ripping on people struggling with Alzheimer’s. But I don’t want an Alzheimer’s patient for a “President,” either…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, quick question: how disgusting is it that puppy-killer Kristi Noem thanked the Drumpfster for keeping hurricanes away? Just how much of a brown-nose does one have to be to even suggest that Donny was able to keep hurricanes away? And for Donny to believe it? I’m sure he does. Hey, does this mean Donny gained control of MTG’s Jewish Space Lasers?

I know it’s just brain-dead, empty hero worship but it was a bad move. A hurricane is going to hit sooner or later. They just do. So now, when one makes landfall and kills a bunch of red hats, I suspect they’ll wonder why Donny let THAT hurricane hit after deflecting the others…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’ll tell you the truth, I thought the oil wars were over. I mean, I have great appreciation for what oil did for the US and for the world when we didn’t have any alternative. But I’ve also been somewhat bummed about the wars we’ve started just to get more of it with no cost to the company – just like “Capitalism” teaches, right? Instead, the “cost” was passed along to the American taxpayer and the soldiers who died and were maimed or otherwise damaged in combat in an effort to “protect American interests.” That’s rich person-speak for “they have resources we want but don’t want to pay for on the open market. Let the Poors pay the price.”

But now we DO have alternatives. We’re not tied to black gold anymore. Worse, we’ve used SO much oil, the world is running out. No, I don’t mean by day-after-tomorrow, but a decreasing supply is still a decreasing supply. We use oil for a LOT of things. Burning it up in car engines is not only bad for the environment (which I guess we’re supposed to pretend doesn’t exist anymore), it’s bad for other products. It’s a frivolous use of a limited resource. There’s a word for that: stupid.

So now that we have options, we quickly embrace those and preserve the remaining oil for other uses, right? Of course not, don’t be ridiculous. Instead, yet another American oil war, this one in Venezuela. Didn’t Donny promise he was going to get us out of foreign conflicts and keep us out of more foreign conflicts? You’ll make a fool of yourself, trying to pretend his assault on Venezuela is about drugs. It’s oil. With America, it’s always oil. Even though we shouldn’t even need it anymore. Yeah, stupid…

On November 20, 2025, I wrote, “Texas, you will not be surprised to hear, is asking the Roberts Supremely Corrupt Kangaroo Court to overturn the lower court’s ruling, which they likely will because it’s what their Precious wants.” Well, they have done, now. Texas gets to use their new map, just as I expected. Speculating on possible different outcomes was fun, but corruption runs DEEP in John Roberts and his cronies on the Way High Court. But it WAS fun while it lasted…

There’s a new(ish) trend taking place in the workforce: rolling layoffs. That’s what they’re calling it. Basically, it goes like this. A company lays off a few employees. Then does it again the next week. Then they do it again the week after. And the week after. And the week after that. They’re trying to reduce staff quietly. They’re doing it stupidly.

I’ve been through this in my lifetime. I worked for a mortgage bank whose directors made a huge mistake at a bad time. As a direct result, the company’s fortunes began to spiral downward. They finally laid off a bunch of workers on a Friday. On the following Monday, those of us who survived all had notices on our desks explaining how that was such a bummer but they’ve cut the dead weight now and the company is “better positioned” to compete and things like that. Then Friday came around and more layoffs happened. Another memo on Monday. Another layoff on Friday. And so on, and so on, and so on.

Eventually, the “we’re done” memos became a running joke with those of us who remained – and the stress at the company was palpable. There’s a basic problem with that strategy that the high-ranking, self-important ‘C Team’ never seems to see. You’re laying off the people who do the work. Fewer employees means less work. Less work means lower revenues. Lower revenues means fewer employees, which means less work, which leads to still lower revenues. All the while the morale of your workforce has cratered.

They never did think of letting go any of their very expensive senior managers, those sitting on the fattest salaries while bringing little to no benefit to the revenues. Eventually, it became clear that the company was going to fail. It was offered for sale. The goal of those managers at that point was to keep employee butts in their seats. The company knew they would get more money for a going concern – even if the “going” part was really “going to hell in a hand-basket.”

So here’s my advice for anybody going through that. The minute you realize you’re living in a “rolling layoff” world, get the hell out. The company might not fail, but it’s definitely going to struggle for a while and in the meantime, the people at the top don’t give two figs about you. They’ll keep you or they’ll dump you – whichever serves their agenda best. Take care of yourself first. You should know that’s exactly the attitude the company will take about you…

Seeking Scapegoats…

Hoo, boy. I would NOT want to be Vice-Admiral Frank ‘Mitch’ Bradley, I can tell you that. It looks like Team Evil is teeing him up to take the fall for the murders of the two survivors in one of their criminal boat strikes. That tells you a few things, or it should. They know the strikes are illegal. One does not protect themselves from legal activities. They’re concerned that down the road, they’ll be asked to answer for their crimes against humanity. The murders happened. Team Evil is a-okay with the murders happening, but they don’t want to be held responsible for their actions. So? Downhill rolls the shi— er, consequences.

Our fearful misleader “has complete faith” in Hegseth’s decisions, but Whiskey Pete doesn’t want that role, at least so long as these might be war crimes. He has his story ready. Well, kind of. “I didn’t, personally, see survivors,” Whiskey Pete told reporters during a Cabinet meeting at the White House on Tuesday. “The thing was on fire. It was exploded in fire and smoke. You can’t see it. This is called the fog of war.” Uh-huh. Good story, Whiskey Pete. Uh, just one more thing, if you didn’t know there were survivors, why order the “double tap” attack?

No, not him. Just ask him. Despite claims that Hegseth gave the order to “kill them all,” Hegseth thinks Bradley “made the right choice.” So, it was Bradley’s choice? Well, Bradley has subordinates, too. He can blame one of them. That just keeps going until they find some private first class to take the fall. THIS, right here, is the reason Congress critters got together and reminded low-ranking soldiers they have an obligation to refuse illegal orders.

Remember Abu Gharib? That was a prison in which American soldiers were torturing prisoners. First we were treated to semantic games. “No,” we were told, “it’s not torture. These are ‘enhanced interrogation techniques.'” When decent humans rejected that bunk, Bush 43 and company started looking at who to blame. Specialist Charles Graner, Jr. Private First Class Lynndie England. Specialist Sabrina Harmon. Specialist Jeremy Sivits. Specialist Roman Krol. Specialist Armin Cruz. Sergeant Javal Davis. The highest ranking person convicted? Why, that would be Staff Sergeant Ivan Frederick.

Do you know what all of those people have in common, besides being the scapegoats for the torture? They don’t set the policy. They don’t make the rules. They did a lot of terrible things, so they should have been punished – and were – but they didn’t do those terrible things in a vacuum. Someone made that “okay.” Someone with lots of rank set the tone, made clear what was expected – and how it was expected. But only low ranking soldiers paid any price. And isn’t that the way? There’s even a poem about it:

“I’m not allowed to run the train, the whistle I can’t blow.
I’m not allowed to say how far the railroad cars will go.
I’m not allowed to shoot off steam, nor even clang the bell.
But let the damn thing jump the track and see who catches hell.”

I don’t know. “The party of personal responsibility” seems to be going to an awful lot of trouble to make sure they don’t have to take any responsibility. I mean, why should they take the blame just because they did it, right? As of Wednesday, Team Evil was trotting out a new excuse. “No, we were just sinking the boat.” What, the one you had just blown up? You didn’t think a freshly blown up boat would sink on it’s own?

I preferred it when men of honor said things like, “The buck stops here…”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On December 1, 2025, I wrote, “Donny has now promised to pardon a guy, Juan Orlando Hernández, who ran hundreds of pounds of cocaine into the US.” That was technically correct but it didn’t tell the whole story. Hernández brought 400 TONS of cocaine into the US. One ton is 2,000 pounds.

400 tons is 800,000 pounds! 800,000 pounds of cocaine and Donny thinks a pardon is right. Meanwhile, do you have a little vial of cocaine in your pocket while you go out fishing for the day? Death to you, because the death penalty is how we handle all “drug dealers,” right? Well, those who can’t pay us, anyway.

The truth is, Hernández hit Donny where he lives. Donny had no choice, couldn’t fight it. Hernández said Donny was pretty and that BIDEN made him bring 400 tons of cocaine into the US, so of course Felon 47 had to pardon him. Well, the flattery and the BBS were important, necessary, even, but the multi-million dollar bribe was pretty important too. Do I know Donny took a multi-million dollar bribe? Do I have evidence? No. That’s just my opinion. But it’s based on the reality that he takes bribes all the time from anybody who wants anything from him and in Donny’s criminal world, if you can’t pay, you don’t get to play.

Meanwhile, I’m happy to report, a family down in Columbia has filed a lawsuit against US airstrikes on defenseless fishermen. Alejandro Andres Carranza Medina, a 42-year-old fisherman, was among over 80 people murdered in 21 confirmed airstrikes carried out by Team Evil since September. His family says he was fishing. They insist he didn’t have any drugs.

I know, a lawsuit isn’t going to have much impact on a guy trying to antagonize a foreign sovereign nation into a war so he can steal their oil. What it DOES is, it gives us more evidence that these victims of Trump/Hegseth war crimes were innocents than evidence we’ve seen from Team Evil that they’re drug runners. That, along with our knowledge that Donny and company are inveterate liars, causes me to seriously doubt his claims…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Felon 47 pardoned Rep. Henry Cuellar (D, TX-28) and his wife. Democrats, fercrissakes. They hadn’t even been convicted, yet. They were indicted last year on charges of receiving almost $600K in bribes from Mexican and Azerbaijani companies. I would guess they used the formula: “You’re the prettiest, my Glory. I sure wish Biden hadn’t set us up and rigged the whole thing. Oh, yeah, here’s a million dollars.” It likely didn’t hurt that Cuellar is considered one of the most conservative Democrats in Congress…

The Sgt Schultz Presidency…

Okay, come on. Shouldn’t SOMEBODY have explained this to him by now? He’s trying to convince the rubes that he’s the “affordability” President by insisting he brought down drug prices by (in his latest rant) “500%, 600%, 700%, and more.” The ONLY truth in his moronic post is that “No other President has been able to do this.”

HE insists health care prices are coming down while people across the land are opening up envelopes to their new, significantly increased health insurance costs. Sadly, it’s an open question as to whether MAGA is going to believe the lying words spewing from his lying mouth, or the paper right in front of their noses…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Remember Sgt Schultz? He was a character in an old comedy show called ‘Hogan’s Heroes,’ set in a German prison camp during WWII, back when Americans didn’t like Fascism. He often said, “I know nothing! I see nothing!” That’s who I think of when Donny tosses out yet another, “I didn’t know about that.”

In view of what seems obvious diminished capacity, though, I’m starting to believe old Donny when he says he knows nothing of this thing or that thing. And he says it a LOT. He says it so much, I have an impression that he isn’t involved with any of the “Presidentin'” stuff any too much. He likes the pageantry parts. He’s not much into the work parts. Those parts are boring and there are no cameras.

So when his answer to Whiskey Pete murdering two survivors of an initial, illegal, murderous attack on a boat was, “I hadn’t heard about that,” I thought, “Well, possible.” I believe him because we hear it too often for it to be just an excuse. He “didn’t know” about Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer after she said helpful things about his raping-girls-with-Epstein problem. He claimed he didn’t know about payments to Stormy Daniels before being convicted for payments to Stormy Daniels.

He claims not to know things so often, many people are referring to his evil regime as the “I don’t know” Presidency. It kind of makes me wonder just who the hell is running the show right now. I suspect the answer is the Heritage Foundation, the authors of Project 2025, which Donny also claimed to know nothing about but then started implementing, as instructed. Donny’s too demented to get into anything more serious than what color the tablecloths in his new ballroom should be.

I have a similar example in my life. My father shuffled off his mortal coil before HIS father did. The thing is, my grandfather was so deeply into the throes of senility by then, the family decided not to tell my grandfather that my father had died. The hitch, you see, is that first, they would have had to remind him of who my father was. I suspect that’s how Team Evil is handling Donny – AND why…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey, speaking of Hegseth murdering people with a so-far unsubstantiated claim of “drug runner,” Donny has now promised to pardon a guy, Juan Orlando Hernández, who ran hundreds of pounds of cocaine into the US. An investigation was held. The man was arrested. A trial was held. Evidence was presented. He had a chance to refute that evidence. He was convicted by a jury of twelve. He was sentenced to 42 years in prison.

We’re told that despite all of the evidence against Hernández, Donny’s gut told him something different, no evidence required. I suspect it was Donny’s wallet that told him something different. But when Donny was asked about it? “They said” it was a Biden set-up, that was all he knew. It seems relevant that the guys in the boats never even get the chance to bribe him and probably don’t have the resources in the first place. But if you’ve got the money…

And it IS possible to manipulate such a deeply, deeply uninformed person. It’s actually kind of easy. He doesn’t have enough information of his own – nor interest, sadly – to make a decent decision. They tell him what he wants to hear. I think it always starts with how pretty he is today, then, for example, “Look what Biden did!” The Drumpfster is so triggered by all things Biden – it’s his BBS, or ‘Blame Biden Syndrome’ – he’ll automatically do the opposite.

He pardoned a guy named Ross Ulbricht, too. Remember him? He’s the guy who founded an illegal drug market called ‘the Silk Road.’ At least he didn’t claim ignorance on that one. He just showed it. Ulbricht received his pardon because he was convicted under Biden. That’s it. BBS, you know. Word is, Ulbricht was convicted after moving over $200 million dollars of illegal drugs.

Donny murders unknowns in the Caribbean, ostensibly to fight drug dealing, and lets known drug dealers run free in America. Donny ALSO sends the National Guard into Chicago to fight a crime wave his delusions have convinced him must be real. ALSO, Donny commutes the sentence of Larry Hoover. Who’s Larry Hoover, you ask? According to Ron Safer, a former U.S. attorney in Chicago, Hoover was the leader of a gang called ‘Gangster Disciples.’

Safer points out that Hoover’s gang was one of the largest and most violent drug syndicates in the U.S. Hoover was convicted of state and federal charges including murder and use of a firearm while trafficking drugs. “Larry Hoover was the head of perhaps the most pernicious, efficient drug operation in the United States,” Safer said. “They sold over $100 million of drugs a year in the city of Chicago alone. They were responsible for countless murders. They supported their drug territories with ruthless violence.”

Frankly, Donny has been SO friendly to drug dealers through the years, it kind of causes me to wonder if there’s something else about Venezuela, some unknown, unknowable draw that compels him to invade Venezuela. Something it’s hard to put one’s finger on. It’s a dark reason, a buried reason. Some slippery, dark, liquid reason. If only I could see (oil) the hidden secret (oil) that might cause the US (oil) to invade a foreign sovereign nation (oil) without provocation (oil). Nope. It’s a complete mystery…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The last time the Forty-Niners (9-4) beat the Cleveland Browns in Cleveland, Joe Montana was their Quarterback. They went on to win the Stupid Bowl. I doubt THIS team will do what THAT team did, but hope springs eternal. The Niners are beat to hell but they keep playing. True, they’re playing teams that are struggling this year, but they’re winning games they should win.

The team gets a bye this next week to rest and recuperate, with Tennessee after that. At 1-11, Tennessee is struggling, too. The Niners should pull off a win there. After that? Ouch. They face the Colts (8-4), the Bears (9-3), and the Seahawks (9-3). Those last three games are the real test. The Niners need to beat good teams if they’re going to compete in the playoffs. Any one of those last three, preferably more, would be a good start…

Dirty, Dirty Bear…

I’m an advocate of teaching children all about human sexuality. No, not by doing. In class, by a teacher, from a textbook. Where do babies come from? How does that happen? What are the risks? How can they prevent pregnancy? That kind of thing. I do NOT hold that young children need the details of some of the corners of human sexuality. How babies are made is a far cry from bondage and role-playing.

The reason I mention it is, a toy company has created an AI bear that started talking some really adult stuff. The toy bear, FoloToy’s Kumma, ran on an OpenAI model and responded to questions about kink. Granted, some kid would have ask it questions about kink, but the bear suggested bondage and role-play as ways to enhance a relationship, according to a report from the Public Interest Research Group (PIRG), the consumer protection organization behind the study.

“It took very little effort to get it to go into all kinds of sexually sensitive topics and probably a lot of content that parents would not want their children to be exposed to,” said Teresa Murray, PIRG consumer watchdog director.

Shoving AI into anything and everything – most especially before we have it all worked out – is going to be a problem. It reminds me of when everything, everything, everything had to be “smart.” It was still stupid, of course, but it was smart enough to pass along your private information to corporations that mean you harm.

Now your refrigerator is listening to you having sex in the kitchen, then telling your children all about it from their toys! “Mommy and Daddy used two ounces of whipped cream to…” I’m a big fan of human ingenuity but I think maybe we should slow down a little, at least until we understand how it all works and interacts…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wasn’t so off-put by the fact that Steve Witkoff explained to the Russians they needed to convince Donny to support their plan. It was HOW he told them to do it: flatter, flatter, flatter, he’ll love you forever. Tell him he’s pretty. He WANTS to believe it, he’ll believe it. And he did…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Reporter: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted and it came up clean.
Felon 47: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting.
Reporter: Actually, your DOJ IG just reported that there was thorough vetting of Afghans who were brought into the US. So why do you blame Biden?
Felon 47: Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person? You’re just asking questions because you’re a stupid person.

Just to be clear, in this exchange, DONNY is the stupid person, suffering from the most severe case of BBS (Blame Biden Syndrome) anyone has ever seen. If you still believe that Biden is responsible for everything Donny does, you might want to reflect on what makes such a moron appear “smart” to you…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Donny convinced the rubes that he was going to fix everything on day one. He has, obviously and of course, backed away from that plan with excuse after excuse (after excuse). He’s a terrible businessman, but he is expert at excuses. The thing is, reality keeps exposing his lies AS lies. Donny’s standard solution in those cases? Suppress reality.

TO that end, he has cancelled the jobs report, the inflation report, and the GDP report. It’s probably just a coincidence that Americans are losing jobs at an alarming rate, inflation is up and climbing, and the GDP is down and falling…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Did he or didn’t he? Whiskey Pete Hegseth, I mean. Did he order survivors of one of the regime’s criminal boat strikes off the coast of Venezuela killed? Murdered, of course, not just “killed.” Seal Team Six is said to have carried out the murders. So much for the glory days of having taken out Osama Bin Laden. Now they’re reduced to murdering fishermen.

Word is, Hegseth gave the final order. A boat gets blown up and people survive. They’re floating in the water, clinging to wreckage of the boat when a US Navy vessel pulls up alongside – and opens fire. Straight up murder. Hegseth has responsibility, having given the order. But Seal Team Six shared in that responsibility, having pointed the guns and pulling the triggers.

Suddenly, Whiskey Pete is out there insisting he didn’t give the final order. THAT started when Congress suggested they might look into the matter. I don’t believe Whiskey Pete. For one thing, he’s an known liar. Second, he plays tough guy all the time. Third, he’s as stupid as anybody, dumber than most. Stupid people often turn to the quickest, easiest answer because they’re too stupid to understand further implications.

Based on everything I’ve seen from Horrible Hegseth, I’m in the “he ordered it” column. Put him on the list for a murder trial after all of this collapses. See? Even accused of murder, I’d give him a trial, not a summary execution. Seal Team Six, too. This is one of those examples where a soldier should have refused the illegal order, according to Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, or UCMJ.

ARE they illegal orders? Well, there’s no evidence these boats are carrying drugs, so the attacks are violations of international and moral laws everywhere. But for the sake of argument, let’s say they ARE running drugs. How do we handle people who move drugs around? I mean, how DID we handle them when this was a decent, more ethical country?

Cops could watch a drug transaction go down and bust every person associated. Each of those people would be put on trial. They’d get a lawyer. They would have a lawyer assigned to them if they couldn’t afford one themselves. If/When they were convicted, they went to jail, served their time, and got out. Maybe they went back to their drug-dealing ways, maybe they didn’t – but they were still alive to make the choice.

Here, let me put this another, more clear way. Even when we KNOW they’re guilty, we don’t execute drug dealers. There’s no legal basis for these killings. There wouldn’t even be a legal basis for these killings if the US was actually at war with Venezuela, which, remember, Congress has not declared. We’re NOT, legally, at war.

I’ll tell you this: I don’t see how anybody can justify these murders, but then, I’m not privy to the workings of the MAGA mind…

Overreactions…

Jeez, overreact much? Look everything is wrong with the recent DC shooting of two national guard troops, starting with the shooting itself. One of the victims, Sarah Beckstrom, 20, has passed and the other, Andrew Wolfe, 24, is still fighting for his life. Twenty and Twenty-four years old. They shouldn’t even have been there. Donny put them in harm’s way when he deployed them in a delusional show of force to fight imagined crime waves that don’t exist.

The shooter was an immigrant, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghani immigrant. He had worked with the CIA in Afghanistan during Bush 43’s illegal war there. He came to the US in 2001, while Biden was President. Remember when MAGA was all aflutter about the “disastrous withdrawal,” and all the people that had been left behind? This guy was one of those brought out. He was granted asylum this year, 2025, under Donny’s evil regime. Biden said he could come, Donny said he could stay. So, of course, Donny blamed Biden.

All of this blaming of Biden for everything seems to be a new offshoot of ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome,’ or TDS. TDS causes it’s victims to be completely and irrationally enthralled by another person despite all of the evidence against that person, but believe that anytime a rational person points out even the tiniest flaw of the object of affection, it’s a blind, wild-eyed, unwarranted attack. A curious characteristic of TDS is that the victims normally think it’s the person noting the flaw that has it, not the person so enthralled they’ll believe anything.

This offshoot is less complex. This one is ‘Blame Biden Syndrome,’ or BBS, and many of it’s victims seem to have found their way into this maladministration. It’s primary characteristic is that it’s victims blame Biden for everything bad. Tariffs you imposed hurting the economy? Blame Biden. People losing heath care because of your legislation? Blame Biden. At risk of being exposed as a pedophile, or, I guess, an Epheophile? (Because of TDS, MAGA is trying to minimize Donny’s rapes as ‘probably not-so-bad’ because the victims weren’t KIDS, kids.) Whichever “inappropriate sex with a minor” name you prefer? Blame Biden.

It works with everything. Remember the Hindenburg? Biden. WWI? Biden. WWII? ALSO Biden. The Great Depression? Biden. The fall of Rome? Black Plague? Collapse of the environment? The Dark Ages? Slavery? War? Famine? Death? Biden, Biden, Biden. Victims of BBS never take responsibility for anything that goes wrong – most especially when they’re responsible. It’s the latest variant of TDS offshoot ‘Blame Obama Syndrome,’ or BOS, and, really, it’s just plain “Blame Syndrome” or, BS.

Anyway, the shooting suggests the shooter was upset at what the ICEholes are doing. So he shoots two national guard members? That’s the wrong target. I mean, look, we’re all upset that The Felon keeps sending the military all over, but we’ve also noticed they’re mostly picking up garbage and planting flowers. I say again, they should not have been where they were and they were put there BY the evil Felon 47.

Right after the shooting, in a well-thought-out and clearly rational post to social media, Donny has promised to “permanently pause migration from all third world countries.” The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that, pending further review, it was indefinitely suspending processing of immigration requests relating to Afghan nationals.

Later, the Department of Homeland Security said the administration was expanding that to include a review of all asylum cases approved under the Biden administration. One presumes this does NOT include white immigrants, like the Afrikaners from South Africa. I mean, anybody can tell they’re not going to do any harm just by looking at them. They don’t even need a background check. If you’re white, you’re all right.

I’ll tell you this: that DOES seem like an incredible overreaction. ONE GUY commits murder so nobody gets to come? That seems like it may have been the plan all along. I expect a concurrent uptick in official violence, as well. They have their excuse…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey, ladies, have I got news for you. I’m sorry. I don’t mean to be sexist. My news is really for anybody who uses talc-based makeup products. Remember when the US spent billions, maybe trillions, of dollars getting rid of asbestos because asbestos was and is really, really dangerous and causes cancer? We tore apart and even tore down buildings that had asbestos in them, a particularly difficult process because we couldn’t even let the asbestos float free a little bit because it was so damn dangerous.

Well, Donny’s dumbass FDA is going to kill a proposed rule that would require testing for asbestos in talc-based makeup products. You know, the products you put directly on your face on a daily basis? Walking through a room with “popcorn” on the ceiling is taking your life in your hands because of asbestos, but smearing it – I’m sorry, carefully brushing it – all over your face is not a concern? Sure, bitches be gettin’ cancer, but all of that product testing for safety cuts into the bottom line. I mean, where are your priorities? Certainly we can see where the priorities of the Trump regime are…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Donny’s demons told him that fossil fuels are better than renewables and Donny always believes his demons. So, he has attacked renewables in every way he can and boosted fossil fuels in every way he could do THAT, including ordering an ageing and unneeded coal-fired power plant that was scheduled to close in Michigan to remain open. Bear in mind, the plant was scheduled to close because it had aged out. It wasn’t about political correctness. But Donny ordered it to stay open because demons are demons and you can’t fix stupid.

So far, that decision, according the company that owns the plant, has cost ratepayers in Michigan an additional $113 million dollars! $615,000 dollars – every day! That’s before we even discuss the toxins being spewed into the air all day every day – all because our inglorious misleader is a moron of the highest order.

Years ago, Donny lost a fight with Scotland about putting windmills offshore near one of his golf courses. Now golfers can see windmills from one hole on the course. Outrage, right? Donny bears a grudge, so he now hates all renewables – like it was the renewables’ fault – and has declared war on the entire environment. Talk about an overreaction. His new-found focus on gas, oil, and coal will accelerate climate change but the bottom line at gas, oil, and coal companies is looking great and in his tiny little mind, that makes it all okay. In MY mind, the boy’s priorities are all messed up…
