Another Day In Bizarro America…

It’s a real-life ‘he said, Xi said.’ Felon 47 claimed on April 22, during an interview with Time magazine that Chinese leader Xi had called him to discuss The Felon’s trade war. As usual, he offers NO details or evidence. He just claimed it happened. I guess we’re supposed to just take his word for it. More, it looks like the Chinese are supposed to just take his word for it, too. It’s simply inexplicable, in his tiny mind, that they don’t.

Asked about the comments, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said: “As far as I know, there has been no phone call between the two heads of state recently. China and the United States are not conducting consultations or negotiations on tariff issues.”

Meanwhile, I’m seeing news stories about idled truckers and empty shipping ports. That means store shelves are going to start emptying and prices will be on the rise. The bumbling buffoon has managed to artificially re-create the economic shut-down he brought about with his feckless handling of Covid-19.

This self-inflicted, totally avoidable economic upheaval was not caused by Joe Biden. It wasn’t caused by Barack Obama. It wasn’t Bill Clinton. It wasn’t Hillary Clinton. It sure as shootin’ wasn’t Bernie or AOC. It wasn’t Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Hakeem Jeffries, Elizabeth Warren, George Soros, or any of the other lefty boogie-men the right likes to blame for their own shortcomings. This was all, 100%, absolutely no one but the failing and flailing Donald J. Trump…

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

You just wait. They’ll be saying she was in BOTH Tren de Aragua AND MS-13. They’ll claim she has the gang tats to prove it. She has a rap sheet as long as… some very long thing. She’s been a menace to society for years and years and years. She’s a legal nightmare and simply had to go. Of course, the fact that she’s only two years old is going to have to be downplayed.

Focus on the story, ‘She’s bad.’ Ignore her age. She’s two. Oh, I’ve got it. “We’ve ALL heard of the terrible two’s. THIS girl takes it to the extreme!” Say some scary words, as though they might apply to her. “Murder.” “Rape.” “Poopy-pants.” Oh, did I mention this two-year-old “terrorist” is a US citizen? That seems like it might have been relevant.

Well, she’s been deported now, so, I guess the Bizarro United States is safe. For now. One can never tell when that little sneak will toddle back across the border. Stay vigilant! Hey, at least she wasn’t sent to a maximum security prison!

In fact, Team Evil deported the child’s mother, who opted to take the child with her. Bear in mind, the child’s mother didn’t do anything wrong, either. She was arrested during what used to be a routine check-in meeting. It was just an opportunity to inflict a little cruelty on a brown person and these guys are NOT going to pass that up.

Even MAGA seems to be noticing how things aren’t going the way Donny promised. His approval ratings are plunging. He has poor ratings on the economy and on immigration, as he should. He sucks at both of those things. But, according to an article in ‘The Guardian,’ “a survey released on Saturday found that only 24% of Americans believe [the anti-American Trumpster] has focused on the right priorities as president.”

24%? That number cuts into MAGA. The Drumpfster maintains about 30% support on most issues and that 30% represents MAGA. (The rest of us understand what’s really happening in this once-great nation.) MAGA is normally steadfast. True believers. It’s a solid 30% and it often seems impossible to shake. 24% means some 6% of MAGA has noticed he’s hurting them, too.

Perhaps they’ve noticed he’s spending more time on retribution and golf than on the cost-of-living and he seems to be making America a laughingstock around the world. That’s hardly “great.” What’s more, if 6% are willing to confess their concerns for a poll, there are likely even more who have noticed, are not happy, but still trying to keep the faith.

So, what happens if MAGA were to find out that all he’s really done is harm tens of thousands of lives but the government, to date, has spent MORE, not less, than any other President in history? They might, they should, begin to question his actions. If it gets bad enough – and it will – they might even start saying so out loud.

24% is the kind of number I’ve been waiting for. Sooner or later, MAGA HAD to notice. His attacks on, well, everything, really, haven’t been limited to the “lib-tards” or the pretended “Deep State.” He’s doing real-life, actual harm to anyone and everyone not lucky enough to have been born into huge piles of money. That is, most of us. Even MAGA. But, hey, we’re safe from scary toddlers…

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

Universal health care? I think it’s a better plan. Here’s one reason. I know a person who is 100% disabled. This particular individual receives health care through California’s Medi-cal program and has for quite some time. Now, she’s about to turn 65. As a result, she is being “shifted” over to Medicare.

Medicare comes with costs. Medi-cal does not. So, when she is shifted to Medicare, Medi-cal stays in the picture, to pick up the costs Medicare won’t. The shift serves, mostly, to add a layer of bureaucracy to the process. It got me thinking. How stupid is that? Wait, here’s another.

I recently had a bit of a health dust-up. A little cancer on my ear. I’m a Kaiser member, but I also have access to the VA. Even though I pay Kaiser premiums and have insurance, thanks to the glories of Capitalism, having Kaiser deal with the problem would have cost me thousands in co-pays and share-of-costs. That represents thousands I don’t have. So I used the VA.

Medicare. Medi-cal. Private insurance. VA. Four different systems. Actually, because “Private insurance” has so many different permutations, parameters, requirements, options, and obligations, it’s a LOT more than four. Each different track has to be managed. It’s just stupid. Oh, AND expensive.

Americans who have been conditioned to oppose universal health care always complain about how their taxes would, likely, go up to pay for it. So, instead, they’ll pay thousands MORE out of their own pocket – just to preserve that ‘freedumb.’ It’s an incredibly inefficient, absolutely stupid position – but absolute stupidity seems to be the standing order here in Bizarro America, these days, so I don’t foresee any corrections any time soon…

The Decline Continues…

I’m not sure arresting a sitting judge is a great move, but here we are. The FBI arrested Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan. They say she helped a man avoid immigration officers in her courtroom. The current regime wants the man out of the country. We all know it’s because he’s brown, but they’re pretending it’s because he’s accused of three counts of misdemeanor battery.

By noon today, EVERY MAGA will just KNOW that she helped a “violent criminal” escape. Meanwhile, on the left, we’ll be arguing that he hasn’t been convicted of anything at this point. That’s the judge’s position, by the way; due process counts. Let the “debates” commence!

The agents on scene didn’t have a proper warrant so the judge didn’t recognize the legality of their claim. She surmised, properly, in my opinion, that ICE would, no doubt, ignore the improper warrant right along with all of the other due process they think is wasteful in these matters. It’s not like she pulled that right out of the air. ICE is ignoring the law all over the country.

Obviously, we’re not talking the same scale, here – not yet, anyway – but I think Judge Dugan finds herself in the same company as Harriet Tubman, who help slaves escape, and Miep Gies, the woman who hid Anne Frank and her family. Both women were violating law – but serving justice, clearly a higher calling.

I believe these kinds of confrontations are created BY the current, America-hating regime. They keep insisting that due process is a luxury the American people can’t afford. “…nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.” That’s an exact quote from the (checks notes), right! The Constitution of the United States. (Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1.) Please note: “any person.”

One of the many, many, oh-so-many things cons are wrong about is the incorrect belief that the constitution ONLY applies to American citizens. It applies to all people on any American soil except where noted. Only citizens can legally vote, for example, but ALL people are entitled to due process. Even if it’s hard.

I don’t care which side of the aisle you stand on, you should NOT support elimination of due process for anyone, anywhere, at any time. Obviously, if one is not a criminal, one never expects to be accused of a crime or worse, to be punished for a crime based on nothing more than some abstract accusation. But just because one doesn’t expect it, doesn’t mean it won’t happen. I mean, look around you. It’s happening already.

I quoted the 14th Amendment, earlier, but the words of the 4th Amendment are just as clear, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures SHALL NOT be violated.” (I added the emphasis, there.) And there it is, again. “…persons.” Certainly, the writers of the 4th Amendment, if not the 14th, had lived their lives under a regime of wanton incarceration. They KNEW how that played out in real life because it was their lived experience. They knew better!

Legally, in decent America, Judge Dugan would beat these charges easily. The law and the Constitution are on her side. Here in Bizarro America, though, the regime might just decide to forego HER due process, as well. I’m in her corner because I, for one, support people standing for justice…

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

I see they put George Santos away for seven years. Good. Ultimately, they convicted him of wire fraud and aggravated identity theft in his scheme to defraud his constituents. See? It CAN be done. I’ve always thought of George Santos as a much less practiced trumpster. The two run the same con. Santos was just less skilled at it. Or maybe just less protected. Santos got what Santos deserved but Santos got what Donny deserves, too: seven years behind bars…

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

I note that despite promises to end the war on day one, the Don of Destruction… hasn’t. It seems he can’t. You’ll hear MAGA regurgitating, “Promises made, promises kept” like there’s some truth to that. There isn’t. He’s more of a “Promises made, screw you” kind of guy. In fairness, he HAS tried. I would say he has tried to the limits of his VERY limited capabilities. He really, really wants a Nobel Peace Prize and he thought he was going to get it by ending the Russia/Ukraine war.

The problem is, he’s too stupid to even understand who started the damn war, so how can he fix it? It seems (full disclosure, I haven’t been included on any of Hegseth’s regime-leaking Signal chats) Donny’s “solution” to end Putin’s war is for Ukraine to simply surrender everything Russia has stolen and call it a day. Not surprisingly, Ukraine has rejected the concept. They seem to reject the notion that Putin should benefit from his criminal invasion. Go figure.

So now, the First Felon says he’s just going to call everyone names and walk away. ‘The Art of the Deal,’ indeed. The United States was obligated by more than one treaty to support Ukraine in the event this exact thing – an unprompted Russian invasion – happened. Donny is showing the US to be an untrustworthy, undependable ally. Our worldwide reputation has never been worse…

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

All attendees had been informed of the dress code: dark suit with long, black tie. Everyone knew. Then Felon 47 shows up wearing a blue suit. There’s no doubt in my mind as to why he wore blue, when the dress code clearly stated black. He wanted to be easily able to find himself in the crowd on television. Based on other things I’ve seen about the guy, he doesn’t much care about anything else. He was thinking of himself. He’s like the sister of the bride who shows up to the wedding wearing white…

Smoke And Mirrors…

I think it’s important to remember: Executive Orders are not laws. They DO carry some legal weight. They do NOT have the force of laws in this sense: a subsequent President can reverse an EO with the stroke of a pen. The Legislative Branch can overrule an EO by passing an actual law. The Judicial Branch has the power to strike down EOs, just like they do normal laws.

The Executive Branch doesn’t make laws, it’s supposed to enforce them. When The Drumpfster successfully manages to scribble his name on an EO, it’s STILL not a law. EOs were once used to detail how a President intended to execute a law. That is, what steps might be taken, which department might oversee the law, that kind of thing.

They were and are “law adjacent,” if you will. Justice Hugo Black wrote in his opinion in the case of ‘Youngstown Sheet and Tube Co vs Sawyer’ that “The President’s power to see that the laws are faithfully executed refutes the idea that he is to be a lawmaker.”

He’s using EOs because he has to. He can’t get these things passed as legitimate laws so he’s doing an end run on his own Republican-controlled Congress. If Congressional Republicans had any self respect… I guess there’s no point in finishing that sentence…

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

Once again, the Felon deceived the market by pretending he is just about to get sane and reconsider his tariffs on China. He stated quite clearly that his anti-American regime was in talks with China and that things were going very well. The market started going up. Unfortunately for the predatory prevaricator, China gets a say in these things, too. And what THEY said was, “Nope. We’re not in talks.” They added, “We don’t see the point.”

Okay, specifically, Guo Jiakun, a spokesman for China’s Foreign Ministry, said, “For all I know, China and the U.S. are not having any consultation or negotiation on tariffs, still less reaching a deal.” He wasn’t alone.

Commerce Ministry spokesman He Yadong said, “China’s position is consistent, and we are open to consultations and dialogues, but any form of consultations and negotiations must be conducted on the basis of mutual respect and in an equal manner. Any claims about the progress of China-U.S. trade negotiations are groundless as trying to catch the wind and have no factual basis,” the spokesman said.

Two different Chinese spokesmen said no talks are happening and He Yadong said it would be like trying to catch the wind, which I understand as “What’s the point?” In the long run, I expect the US is going to suffer FAR, FAR more than any other country involved in The Felon’s trumped up trade war. I’m not looking forward to that but it seems right and proper to me.

The Bizarro US started this mess and the Bizarros deserve every bit of the blow-back that results. The rest of us are just “collateral damage,” though WE “deserve” it, too, because we haven’t done enough to stop him. The Drumpfster is the world’s problem, but he’s OUR responsibility.

A lot of people, big people, strong people are saying it to me, they say, “Why doesn’t he just dry up and blow away?” A lot of people are saying it. You’re hearing it a LOT. And, as you know, when “a lot of people are saying it” and “you’re hearing it a lot,” one has no choice but to do what those voices are saying…

Bill Maher likely doesn’t realize how deeply he’s stepped in it. He became a “useful idiot” to the regime and there was quite a bit of push-back. The entire rational world is trying to get him to realize he was a pawn, used to put a nicer face on a madman. Larry David noticed and wrote an op-ed called ‘My Dinner With Adolf.’

It purported to be a report about a “vocal critic” of Hitler who got invited to dinner with the man himself and found him surprisingly warm and gracious. “Here I was, prepared to meet Hitler, the one I’d seen and heard — the public Hitler. But this private Hitler was a completely different animal. And oddly enough, this one seemed more authentic, like this was the real Hitler. The whole thing had my head spinning,” David wrote.

Replace ‘Hitler’ with ‘Trump’ and you’ve got a nearly perfect transcript of what Maher said of the Don of Destruction after their dinner. I suspect Maher is trying to white-knuckle the whole controversy away, hoping it blows over sooner, rather than later. Initially, he didn’t respond to David’s op-ed at all. Apparently, the two are friends and don’t want to get into a public spat. But eventually, Maher had to respond so he… oh, get this, he played the Jew card.

Maher, a life-long, avowed Atheist who is half-Jewish by birth, said of the op-ed written by full-blooded, practicing Jew Larry David, that it was, “kind of insulting to 6 million dead Jews.” I think Maher needs a new mirror. To my mind, Maher snuggling up to the Fascist madman was “kind of insulting to 6 million dead Jews.”

I fully support talking to MAGA. I absolutely believe we and they receive different information from our various sources. We should ALL compare notes, find out who’s being told what. But that applies to the rank and file. One is not going to get one of the Deceivers to change their ways. One does not fight evil with understanding…

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

47 did this with Covid. He kept saying, if we stop testing, we’ll stop finding cases. His twisted, tiny little mind probably thought that made sense, too. If we don’t talk about Covid-19, there IS no Covid-19. He killed a little over a million people with that stupid outlook. He and his regime are trying the same trick with Climate Change. These clowns seem to actually believe that if you don’t talk about it, it goes away. (Pro tip: it doesn’t.) Now he’s doing the same thing with polling.

Fox Not-News MADE him. They built him up on a tower of lie after lie after lie. Ever since their loyalty cost Murdoch nearly a billion dollars, though, the network has been a little, and I mean just a touch, more balanced in their coverage of the dotard. They recently published a poll that showed the Felon’s approval rating is lower than any other President in history at this point in his tenure, with the SECOND worst rating ALSO belonging to the Felonious Failure.

Naturally, 47 went ballistic. He does that whenever anybody tells a truth about him. He doesn’t LIKE it when people tell the truth about him. Now he wants pretty much everybody at Fox Not-News fired. This seems like a hopeful crack in the GOP shield wall that protects 47. If Murdoch and 47 fall out, there’s a risk Fox Not News and/or the Wall Street Journal will start reporting honestly on the Felon’s actions – and that would be very, VERY bad for 47. Fingers crossed…

The Immorality of the Regime…

Is THIS what MAGA wanted? Is this what MAGA had in mind? A government that is SO cruel, it will attack it’s own citizens for asking questions? This… distortion of humanity currently destroying our nation deported a man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, to a maximum security prison with no charges, no trial, no chance to defend himself AND, not coincidentally, no chance for anybody to question the regime’s actions, either. The deportation was illegal as the man in question had a protective order that allowed him to stay in the US.

In a court filing, the regime even confessed Abrego Garcia was deported as the result of an “administrative error.” They apparently fired that lawyer for telling the truth. Then they doubled down on all of their lies about why they just had to do it. His wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, has been fighting to get him home. She’s been a real thorn in their side, continually pointing out the error of their ways and making a lot of noise.

So the effing regime doxxed her. They published a court document online that anybody could access but failed to, or chose not to, redact her home address. This means any MAGA zombie could find it and use it to harass her for daring to question their precious. Now she has to hide out in a safe house. She’s an American citizen and the ostensible government of the United States of America is actively attacking her for standing up for the constitution.

So far, the regime hasn’t commented on why they chose to publish her information. At least they haven’t claimed, yet again, simple incompetence. Hell, they haven’t claimed ANYTHING about it. They just did it. I know I shouldn’t attribute incompetence to malevolence but this seems pretty malevolent to me. The immorality of the regime is mind-boggling…

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

Do you remember when our incompetent Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, invited a reporter to join a classified meeting on a public app while the US bombed Yemen? Apparently, none of the people charged with our national security even realized the reporter was there. It seemed like a pretty good summary of the competence level of the guys in charge right now.

But now it turns out that inviting a reporter into his classified group was only the SECOND stupid thing Hegseth did in relation to that bombing. According to the Guardian, he ALSO sent details of the attack plan, via a second Signal chat group, to his wife, his brother, and about a dozen other people. He reportedly used his private phone for that one, too, just to make sure the information was as unsecured as could be possible.

Frankly, I think this is what happens when one puts a talking head from a weekend propaganda show in charge of the Defense Department. To me, it just feels like Hegseth is showing off to his friends. “See how important I am?” We certainly see how stupid you are, there, Pete. He doesn’t (can’t?) trust that people think the Secretary of Defense is an important job. I’ll bet he mentions that he’s the ‘SecDef’ (they love their abbreviations in the DoD) to every person he runs in to.
“Um… okay. Uh… did you want fries with that?”

This is a paragraph straight from the Guardian: “Shortly after the news of the second Signal chat broke, Politico published an opinion article by Hegseth’s former press secretary, John Ullyot, which began: “It’s been a month of total chaos at the Pentagon. From leaks of sensitive operational plans to mass firings, the dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president – who deserves better from his senior leadership.”

It seems Mr. Ullyot didn’t get the memo. ‘Total chaos’ is the GOAL of this regime. That’s WHY the Don of Destruction put Hegseth in that position in the first place. 47 sprang to Hegseth’s defense. He once again dismissed facts as “fake news” and said the idea of pursuing the issue of Pete’s security breaches was a “waste of time.” Oh, but ‘Hillary’s emails,’ right? Hypocrisy knows no bounds when it comes to MAGA…

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

Ho hum. Another day with Felon 47 in charge, another nearly 1,000-plus point drop in the Dow. There have only been 11 since the Dow was formed. Donny has caused four of them – in one month. There’s a reason, of course. He’s an idiot. He doesn’t know what he’s doing, and he’s too narcissistic to confess either error or incompetence.

MAGA is right there with him of course. Due to their conditioning, they have no choice. But people free to think their own thoughts – that is, the rest of the world – can readily see the Drumpfster is just a blowhard, bumbling fool. They’re getting tired of it. The world is fleeing the American dollar and our markets. The Don of Destruction thinks he can shoot his own foot until other countries surrender to his stupidity.

He doesn’t seem to understand that grabbing a bigger gun and continuing to blast away at his own feet doesn’t increase the pressure on the world, either. The world DOES seem startled by watching the madman destroy his own country intentionally but since there is precious little they can do to stop him, they just move on in other directions. It turns out, the world has options and the world it choosing to exercise those options.

The actual problem, as we all know, is the capricious tariffs coupled with the dismantling of any and all financial security measures the world has relied on for generations. Rational people everywhere are left to wonder, is he a moronic, bumbling fool or a criminal, openly manipulating the stock market for his own personal gain? I’m going to hedge my bets and say, “Both!”

I’ll tell you this: I’m starting to think leaving an insane person in charge of the country is a mistake…

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

As Elon has worked his evil on the nation, the nation has responded by refusing his crappy rolling crematoriums. Sales are down and stock has dropped rather distressingly, if you’re an investor. Apparently, Muck is leaving the illegal DOGE to go back and try to save the SwastiKar. Investors started buying the stock when they heard the news. BUT…

Will people buy the car? The stock will bump up as investors make moves, but if people don’t buy the car, that won’t last long. Do you think the country will breathe a collective sigh of relief and start buying them again? I don’t. We have better options, these days. The company’s reputation is, to say the least, tarnished as a result of their evil CEO.

I’ll tell you this: I hope people keep their faces turned away from Tesla, so long as Elon has any association with the company whatsoever…

Easter, 2025…

Oh, yeah, Happy Easter! It IS Easter, the day we recognize the resurrection of Jesus and, um, some rabbit, for some reason. Maybe God’s Holy Recharge Blaster was on wide beam and the rabbit just got caught up in it by accident. It seems the Holy Recharge Blaster may cause side-effects. I can’t speak to any possible changes in Jesus, but the rabbit, apparently, started laying chocolate eggs – which is not normally a rabbit thing. Still, chocolate eggs are a much happier side-effect than ‘anal leakage.’ Good job, God! Well done.

‘For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotten son…’ That’s from the Bible. John 3:16. It’s not quite true, though, right? He LOANED his only begotten son. Three days later, he roused him and brought him up to Heaven, ostensibly for a cold beer and a hot shower and a two thousand year head-start on watching ‘Game of Thrones.’ (God is omniscient. That means He knows everything that has happened, is happening, and WILL happen. He knew ‘Game of Thrones’ was coming. HE’S been fuming about that b.s. last season for a LOT longer than the rest of us.)

But the rabbit abides. The chocolate eggs endure. Somewhere along the way, we got chocolate bunnies, too. That’s good, but I think it’s a ‘near-miss.’ (It’s a near-hit, fella…) In order to cover ALL of the Easter bases, shouldn’t God have given us a chocolate Jesus, maybe holding a chocolate egg? I mean, we should at least TRY to keep the religious part in there, somewhere, right? I think Chocolate Jesus would have to be solid chocolate. Hollow Jesus just sounds… disrespectful. Unfortunately, in view of the tariffs, solid chocolate Jesus is prohibitively expensive.

Ask and it shall be given you.” (Matthew 7:7) If you do a search on ‘Chocolate Jesus,’ you’ll find it. Actual chocolate Jesus’s (Jesi?) but also a novel by Stephen Jaramillo, published in 1997 by Berkley Books and a song by Tom Waits. “Only chocolate Jesus can satisfy my soul…”

Okay, kidding aside, there ARE some lessons many have turned away from, say, about a third of this once-great nation. It might be good to revisit some of the more prescient messages from Jesus on this fine day. Let’s start with this one:

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so, every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” (Matthew 7 : 15-19, KJV)

Beware the wolf in sheep’s clothing, right? We’ve all heard that. Now we’re seeing it, playing out on a daily basis by one of the most corrupt men ever to walk the Earth. Felon 47 is there and he’s a fact. FAR too many people are following him and his example. But they should pay closer attention to that last sentence from Jesus. “Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.” That’s a warning. If your efforts bring forth corrupt fruit, you WILL BE cast into the fire. Every tree.

“No,” you might say. “I tell EVERYONE I’m a Christian and I always make a great show of it.”
“But you follow the example of 47, not the teachings of Jesus.”
“I go to church every Sunday. I sing hymns the loudest and hold my folded hands in prayer the longest. You can SEE how religious I am.”
“Yes,” I answer, skeptically, “I can.”

Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.” (Matthew 25 : 45) I’m thinking, here, of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the man wrongly accused of being a gang member and criminally deported without due process. The case offered against him – only in the court of public opinion, NEVER in a court of law – is based, entirely, in lies. 47 even went so far as to show a photo that purports to be Abrego Garcia’s hands with ‘MS-13’ tattooed on the fingers.

The thing is, the photo isn’t what it’s held out to be. Abrego Garcia RAN FROM gangs. He didn’t join any. He has some tattoos on his fingers. The Felonious Fraudster says they’re symbols for MS-13. The “MS-13” part has clearly been Photoshopped onto the photo. The actual tattoos are other things. According to experts, actual members of MS-13 tattoo ‘MS-13’ all over their bodies. They don’t WANT you to need a super-de-duper decoder ring to know they’re MS-13.

The First Felon, the False Prophet, the Father of Lies, is offering his flock some of that evil fruit we just talked about. He CANNOT make an honest case against Abrego Garcia, so he makes a false case. Remember, a corrupt tree cannot bring forth good fruit.

Not every one that saith unto me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works?’ And then will I profess unto them, ‘I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.'” (Matthew 7 : 21-23) ‘Iniquity’ is defined as a gross injustice, wickedness.

I don’t accept so-called ‘Christian Nationalists’ AS Christians. I classify them as ‘Christian in name only.’ (CINOs?) In my mind, one has to follow the teachings of Jesus – or at least TRY to – in order to qualify. But who am I? I think they’re putting a LOT of hope in that slogan, ‘Christians aren’t perfect – just forgiven.’ But that’s the thing. It’s just a slogan. You won’t find that in the Bible.

What you WILL find is, “And then will I profess unto them, ‘I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity,” and “Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

So on this fine Easter, I’m here to remind the followers of the Felon, you are being deceived and you WILL suffer the consequences, even though you were deceived, because He gave you the tools you needed to keep from being deceived – and you turned away from them. I know you by your fruits. The world knows you by your fruits. Jesus will know you – or not – by your fruits, as well.

Go in peace…

Not Going Well…

The B.U.S. – that’s ‘Bizarro United States’ – government is sending letters to American citizens telling them to “self-deport.” I get it. The idea is to run, rough-shod, over everything. Sending out mass letters to, what, a given zip code, seems a little… sloppy. It seems as though the regime isn’t really trying to get it right. They’re just trying to scare everybody. I don’t mean to minimize that. They’re doing a FINE job, scaring everybody.

Dr Lisa Anderson is an American citizen. According to a photo I’ve seen, she appears white. Yet she received a letter from immigration telling her to “self-deport” immediately. She currently lives in Connecticut but she was born in Pennsylvania. Does she “self-deport” to Pennsylvania? Will that satisfy the demands of immigration? The letter she received said, “If you are an alien, being in the United States is a privilege — not a right.” That may be true but I’m starting to feel like if you’re an American citizen, being trapped in the United States is a punishment, not a privilege.

The regime’s entire approach is based in lies. I believe this to be true because they WILL NOT present their evidence in court. EVER! I have lived my entire life KNOWING that a person who will not present their evidence is lying. It’s kind of “entry level” stuff, you know?

Attacking the immigrant community is simply a set-up. The Don of Destruction is laying the groundwork to kidnap Americans and make them disappear, too. Right now, MAGA thinks it’s a great thing, deporting brown people. MAGA will happily pretend those brown people are all criminals because that lie gives them the justification they need in order to be cruel to brown people.

MAYBE a case could be made that B.U.S. was “only” deporting undocumented people – until BUS started deporting legal residents. They’re STILL brown, though, so MAGA still thinks it’s great. I don’t think it will be too much longer, though, until B.U.S. “deports” an American citizen to a foreign prison based on assertions, not actual charges or convictions. I expect he’ll be a bad guy, or portrayed as one, anyway, but it’s coming, and soon…

I saw a meme from ‘The Onion’ that read, “Sadly,” Felon 47 “was found alive and well this morning at Mar-a-Lago.” The sub-head read, “There’s always a chance for tomorrow’s obituaries.” This is a fast-growing sentiment here in this once-great nation. “Why doesn’t he just die, already?”

I think if he would do the world that service, MAGA would start to fall apart pretty quickly. I know he’s surrounded by a team of like-minded, anti-American authoritarians so it seems like MAGA would just carry on as normal. The thing is, 47 has some kind of weird charisma I don’t see from anyone else around him. I know, it seems wrong to apply that word, charisma, to The Drumpfster. We associate charisma, generally, with people we respect, and he clearly is NOT a good person. Hitler had the same charisma.

You see, “charisma” only refers to a person who arouses fervent popular devotion and enthusiasm. It could be – it was – JFK or Dr King. But it might also be Jim Jones or Charles Manson. And 47 certainly arouses MAGA. Sure, the rest of the world recognizes a clown when they see one but MAGA (and, apparently, Bill Maher) are easily fooled and Oh! Em! GEE! do they love that guy. I’m not sure there’s anyone who can replicate what the Don of Destruction is able to pull off.

Then again, when Caesar destroyed the Roman republic, he didn’t live long enough to take full advantage of it. But because of the actions he had taken, and with all the pieces in place, Caesar’s adopted son, Augustus, just stepped in and formalized the empire. The republic never returned. The thing is, Augustus was competent. Which of The Felon’s children could step up and take over? It takes a combination of charisma and skill. Donny has the charisma, evil though it may be. The Heritage Foundation brings the skill but the implementation still requires an audacity of trumpery. Those in The Drumpfster’s circle, generally speaking, have neither or, at least, have never displayed either.

The only way we’ll know, for sure, of course, is if he dies. I mean, to be clear, this is just a thought experiment, a kind of a guess. But I really would like the opportunity to find out what happens to MAGA when Donny dies and that’s an experiment I would like to see start sooner rather than later. Do you think he’ll accommodate?

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

Donny promised on the campaign trail that he would end the Russia/Ukraine war quickly, on Day One. No, even sooner. He promised it was going to be so easy, he’d get it done even before the inauguration. He failed. Like, completely. It’s simple. He promised he would end the war, he hasn’t – CAN’T – end the war. That’s a complete failure, I don’t care HOW loyal you are. He failed.

On the campaign trail, he promised he would just get the principles on the phone and say, “Look, you son-of-a-bitch…” The gullible cons lapped that up with a spoon and cheered loudly. But it turns out, in REAL negotiations, the people on the other side of the table will wait for the rest of that sentence – and 47 had NO IDEA how to finish that sentence.

“Look, you son-of-a-bitch…”
“You were saying?”
“Um… stop this… or else!”
“Da. Or else… what?”
“Waaaaaah!”

He likes talking like a tough guy but in reality he ONLY ever punches down, at people with far less power than him. That’s NEVER tough. It’s cowardly. When he’s confronted by people who also enjoy a little power, 47 often LOOKS as stupid as he acts. In the latest example, he’s now saying that if they don’t stop fighting, he’s going to pull the ultimate trumpery: he’ll call them names and turn his back. Ooh, that’ll show ’em.

The Cowardly Liar is way, way, WAY out of his depth. It’s just sad. Bigly sad…

Viewpoint Diversity…

There’s a story in ‘The Independent’ that says that Felon 47 has spent $155 BILLION MORE than Biden had at the same point in his term. This, after firing thousands of workers and cutting off funding for agency after agency in his obviously failing effort to spend less government money. The spending was apparently discovered by the Wall Street Journal. So, where is all the money going to?

Muck and his illegal DOGE claim to have “saved” $150 billion. So far, most of Musk’s “success” has been based in lying. He makes things up, then calls them “savings.” But the spending is real. If 47 is not funding government operations, and sure as shootin’ isn’t paying employees, where has the money gone? Golf? Zooming around a race track? Into his pockets? Inquiring minds want to know…

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

I’ve spent time thinking about this and I’ve decided that Bill Maher got played. He went to dinner at the White House. He said he found Der Leader much more amenable in person that he appears in public. It struck me as being akin to taking a tour of a city in some (other) authoritarian country, but being shown only the pretty stuff with all of the lesser stuff bypassed.

China hosted a summer Olympics in Beijing, one of the more polluted cities in the world. In fairness, they had been working the problem since 2008, trying to clean up the air. But just before the beginning of the event, they ordered all of the factories closed for a week and seeded the clouds in order to knock down some of the pollution with rain so the city would appear more pristine than it is, day-to-day, for the residents. It was a carefully curated event.

That’s what I think Maher walked in to, a carefully curated event Felon 47 hoped would translate to a positive review for Maher’s audience. It worked, too. Maher hasn’t demonstrated such gullibility in the past. Doing so now suggests he may have contracted MAGA. He’s clearly in early stages at this point, but the infection advances at a steady rate. I guess it’s no wonder he’s becoming more and more popular on the right. Meanwhile, he’s becoming less and less popular with me…

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

Dear MAGA, I know you’re not being told everything there is to know on various subjects, deportation being a big one, so I thought I would help. No, NOT every person deported is a “violent criminal.” We know of several who are not criminals at all. They got swept up in raids based on tattoos. In particular, this man, Kilmar Ábrego García, is NOT in MS-13. Here’s a very important note: even your beloved has admitted in a court filing that deporting him was an error. The lawyers filed that in a sworn motion.

The INSTANT you support stripping due process from him, you’re supporting stripping due process for yourselves. You don’t expect to be deported over some difficult-to-define excuse, that is, despite your tattoos, but once stripping away due process becomes acceptable for one thing, it will be acceptable for ALL things. You can’t celebrate that THAT guy didn’t get his due process, then decry the idea when YOU don’t get due process. It just doesn’t work that way…

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

“Viewpoint diversity.” That’s a euphemism the regime is using these days. It means, “think like us.” That is, be wrong about everything. It’s VERY Big Brother. It’s a version of DEI, it’s just the con version: ‘Demand Exclusion and Ignorance.’

I saw a snippet of the letter the regime sent to Harvard University as reprinted in ‘Esquire Magazine.’ That phrase, ‘viewpoint diversity,’ appears in the paragraph that orders Harvard to establish an ideological litmus test to ensure viewpoint diversity and ends with the sentence, “Harvard must abolish all criteria, preferences, and practices, whether mandatory or optional, throughout its admissions and hiring practices, that function as ideological litmus tests.”

That’s some pretty fancy talk from a con. It means, “We don’t want you using the ideological litmus test we pretend you already have and insist that you use OUR ideological litmus test, instead.” Cons have long been conditioned to believe that if they think it, some school somewhere should teach it. Flat Earth? Sure. Laying on of hands, rather than going to the doctor? Why not? Moon landing faked? You bet’cha. Man made climate change? Absofuckinglutely NOT! That’s woke!

In short, it comes down to “teach wrong or get punished.” One of the scary parts? This is likely the same letter Columbia University received and has agreed to. This means Columbia has agreed to ‘viewpoint diversity’ which, in con terms, means absolutely, positively NO diversity of viewpoints is allowed. The con way is the ONLY way. Sticking closely to the conservative ideology means one comes out of Columbia University dumber than when one enters.

It’s essentially a threatening letter. “Nice school ya got, here. Be a shame if something were to happen to it, like, say, losing Federal contracts. And all you gotta do is teach wrongheaded nonsense to your students to keep it from happening.”

I’m glad Harvard said no. I’ve never been particularly impressed by a Harvard degree based on their history of “legacy admissions” and the “Gentleman’s C.” A ‘legacy admission’ means you get in if a parent got in, whether you’re qualified or not. A “Gentleman’s C” is the letter grade one is given if a student doesn’t or can’t do the work but daddy CAN build a new wing on the science building. But Harvard is definitely doing the right thing, here and I applaud their stance.

Felon 47 doesn’t, though. Now he’s threatening their non-profit status. He says they’re not acting in the public interest. If they refuse to tailor their curriculum to regime demands, they MUST be engaging in politics and, therefore, should lose their tax exempt status. No word, yet, on pulling tax exempt status from the churches that march their congregations directly to the ballot box…

The Seeds of Destruction…

I still say it’s terrorism. The new program of deporting people to maximum security prisons with no charges, no trials, and certainly no convictions has, at it’s heart, a goal of terrorizing people into not coming into the United States along with terrorizing non-citizens who are here – legally or otherwise – to leave.

The United States government used to prosecute terrorists. Now? They’ve become terrorists. In my opinion, Bizarro America isn’t going well, at all…

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

In their latest excuse for why they won’t bring home the legal resident they wrongly deported to a maximum security prison in El Salvador without charge, trial, or conviction, the regime said the corrupt Roberts Kangaroo court only ordered them to “facilitate” the man’s return, not “effectuate.”

Oh, what frolicking fun, playing semantic games. It’s too bad there are actual human beings having their entire lives turned upside down and destroyed while all of this joyful merriment is going on. Remember, kids, if you support elimination of due process for others today, you’re supporting elimination of due process for YOU tomorrow.

I think it’s bad attitude stuff. I’m told we’re not supposed to call them Nazis because they haven’t murdered millions yet. (Hey, it takes a little time to work up to that kind of stuff.) Instead, I would like to suggest ‘Snotzies.’ It feels like it captures the moment AND the attitude…

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

Every time a President, or in this case Felon 47, goes on a trip, short or long, it cost money. Lots and lots of money. When he goes golfing, as he does most weekends, it costs millions of dollars. Every time. When he wanted to take a lap at a raceway, millions. When he wanted to go to the Stupid Bowel. Millions. He went to a UFC event the other night. Millions more. I wonder if that’s what MAGA had in mind when 47 talked about all of that “saving” he was going to do for the American people.

As of March 30 of this year, it is estimated he spend over $26 million taxpayer dollars. Golfing. And we KNOW the number has gone up substantially since he spent the entirety of his economic crash cheating on golf courses. I suppose if I was MAGA – and thank the gods, I’m not – I would excuse his extravagance at my expense by pretending that ‘Presidentin’ is hard and he needs rest. I would read his absence in the face of disaster as a calm face, not worried about the disaster he was creating.

Granted, I ALSO wouldn’t acknowledge it was a disaster of his own creation and maybe that it wasn’t even a disaster. Sometimes, I think it must be tiring, being MAGA and constantly having to engage in mental gymnastics to keep all of the excuses in the air and working at the same time. I mean, it must be exhausting.

But I’m not MAGA, so I think he’s just malingering. I think he’s playing WAY too much golf. I think he’s wasting WAY too much taxpayer money – especially since he’s pretending he wants to cut costs on everything, everywhere. As this thing moves forward, though, it looks like he wants to cut costs on everything that doesn’t benefit him, directly. He just really understands the need for expenses related to his pleasures, so those are okay.

Speaking of which, if I could get a little help from MAGA, I’d appreciate it. Would you please point me to the moment or moments on the campaign trail where he told you flatly that in order to save the economy, he had to crash it and let it burn? All I can find is him promising, over and over, he had a plan to fix the economy “on day one.” All I can find is him promising it was going to be easy.

I DID hear Musk saying people were going to suffer, so I know that’s out there. I’m also aware that 47 confessed things weren’t going to be easy AFTER the “election” but before being sworn in, but by then, MAGA had cast their votes for lower prices. They just didn’t GET lower prices.

So, if you could show me, please, when he told you, on the campaign trail, that everything was going to be more expensive, you’re going to lose your Social Security, AND that your 401k was going to lose thousands of dollars, well, that would be great. I mean, he keeps saying he’s doing what voters voted for. It feels, to me, like he promised “up” and his supporters voted for “up,” but all he has delivered is “down.” Maybe it’s just me…

I Prefer the First Amendment…

It really bugs me that the media in this once-great nation seems to be having success equating objections to the actions of the Israeli government with antisemitism. The two are light-years apart. I have no problems with Jewish people nor Judaism, in general. I have tremendous heartburn with the actions of the Israeli government. I oppose genocide, not Judaism.

I suppose now is the time to add that I don’t support Hamas, either. When one gets down to brass tacks, I think BOTH sides are wrong in this one. Hamas was just plain stupid to launch rockets into Israel, counter-productively killing civilians who, likely, have no more control over their government than I do over mine. That does not give Israel the right to wipe Gaza off the map and claim the land for themselves.

I watched the April 11 episode of ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’ and there was much talk about the “crimes” of Mahmoud Khalil that make it “okay” to deport him, despite the fact that he has a Green Card and is here legally. ‘Crimes’ was probably a poor choice of words. NOBODY has charged any crimes, not even the criminal regime. He participated in protests against the Israeli government in their actions in Gaza. That’s it. But his opponents have accused him of saying things they don’t like and insist that should be enough. So much for the First Amendment, I guess.

Many of the claims Maher spewed centered around unsupported assertions in filings from the government – THIS criminal regime – explaining why they can deport Khalil despite his Green Card. ‘He harassed Jews on campus.’ No evidence. ‘He supports Hamas.’ No evidence. ‘He lied on his Green Card application.’ No evidence. The whole thing is built on false equivalencies. Supporting Palestinians is NOT the same as supporting Hamas. Objecting to the actions of Israel is NOT the same as being antisemitic.

Despite Maher’s obvious shift to the right in recent years, I’ve enjoyed his show for a long time and I pay attention to the things he says. So, when he leveled those charges, I sought to verify them. I couldn’t. I read the government’s filing (it was only two pages) but find their credibility lacking – especially in view of the fact that even the regime didn’t detail any of their “charges.” He acted as liaison between the protestors and the school and handed out leaflets. Reading “Stop killing innocent Palestinians” as “I love Hamas” takes some real mental gymnastics.

What I DID find was various Jewish groups supporting Khalil. They were quite clear. They DO NOT like what he said, but they defend his right to say those things. If, they add, he had done something, taken some action against Jews, they would feel differently, but, according to them, he hasn’t done any of that. He just engaged in objectionable speech and that’s what the First Amendment is about. They object to the claim that his actions were antisemitic based on the idea that frivolous claims of antisemitism undermine actual instances of antisemitism.

So now we have the criminal regime (mostly not Jewish) and Bill Maher (half Jewish by birth) out there objecting to “antisemitism” even the Jewish community isn’t citing or claiming and Mahmoud Khalil’s life being destroyed in the process – because he thinks killing innocent people is a BAD thing and stands up – peacefully, mind you – for what he believes. I remember when the US liked having those kinds of people around. Now all of that is being turned into “thought crimes.” Isn’t that from ‘1984?’

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

One of the tricks MAGA media is using to keep MAGA on their side is constantly repeating MAGA conditioning that EVERY person deported to a maximum security prison without trial on those illegal flights to El Salvador was a very bad guy. If, instead, you get your information from any centrist or credible source, you know that’s not true. A prominent case in point in this moment is the case of Kilmar Abrego García. It looks, to me, like the regime is heading to a final showdown with the courts over his illegal deportation.

The short version is, there was no legal basis to deport Abrego García. A Federal judge has ordered his return. The regime has failed to comply. At first, they said they couldn’t get Abrego García back. Since the US is paying El Salvador millions of dollars to take and keep the never-charged prisoners, it seems likely they could get the guy back if they wanted to. Worse, if these clowns are deporting people, without charge or trial, to foreign countries to be held in prison and have no method in place to retrieve any one of them for any reason, they’re insanely irresponsible and absolutely out of control.

Oh, and, quick question, why isn’t DOGE looking at THAT waste of American tax dollars? Not the deportations, per se. Those are going to cost some money. But paying foreign prisons millions of dollars to hold these non-criminal prisoners is ADDING cost needlessly. It’s the epitome of fraud, waste, and abuse. Claiming these people were all violent criminals is the fraud. Paying to put them in foreign prisons instead of just dropping them off at some airport in a different country is the waste. Throwing people in prison without charges or trial is very definitely abuse.

So, the judge in the case, US district judge Paula Xinis, ordered the anti-constitutional regime to report his status and any steps that may have been taken, so far, to comply with the court’s order to bring him back. A guy named Michael G Kozak, who identified himself in a “response” filing as a “Senior Bureau Official” in the state department’s Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, confirmed to the court that Abrego García in still in the infamous prison, alive and “secure,” not necessarily “well.”

The filing Kozak made said, “It is my understanding based on official reporting from our Embassy in San Salvador that Abrego García is currently being held in the Terrorism Confinement Center in El Salvador. He is alive and secure in that facility. He is detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador.

I added the emphasis on that last line because it’s an outright lie. In reality, he is detained pursuant to a paid request of the Bizarro United States of America. It’s important to understand, Abrego García has no criminal record, either here nor in El Salvador. He fled El Salvador as a teenager because the gangs down there threatened to kill him if he didn’t join. How horrifically ironic is it that the regime used “gang member” as their excuse to deport him?

But more importantly, that last line, “He is detained pursuant to the sovereign, domestic authority of El Salvador,” is the basis the regime plans to use to refuse to bring him home. That’s my prediction. The argument they seem to be teeing up is that he’s a citizen of El Salvador being held according to the authority of El Salvador, so how could the US ever expect to bring him home? I mean, it would interfere with the sovereign rights of a foreign nation and everyone KNOWS the US never, ever interferes with the sovereign rights of foreign nations, right?

Even the corrupt Supremely Kangaroo Court has upheld the judge’s order to facilitate the man’s return to the country. Right now, the regime is saying, “We can’t” but I suspect that, soon and very soon, their answer will change to a far simpler, “No.”

I’ll tell you this: that will be the day the US court system essentially collapses. That will be the day the criminal regime presses the fact that the courts in the United States have no enforcement authority without the cooperation of the Administrative branch. The regime’s “No” will actually be, “No. What are you going to do about it?”

Fluffers and Facts…

Apparently, Felon 47 felt SO defeated at having to back down from his tariffs, he had to call a fluffer meeting with his staff. He sat them at a giant table and made them take turns telling him how wonderful he is, how awesome, what an amazing human being, the business genius of business geniuses and how super-de-duper honored they are to bask in his glorious presence. The public groveling is humiliating – or should be – and whenever I see it, I feel embarrassed for the lickspittles who gladly engage so they, too, can feel important.

Wednesday, he backed down from his oh-so-stupid tariffs and the market shot up nearly 3,000 points in a clear message that big business didn’t WANT him messing with the markets by initiating a trade war. He tried to take credit for it as the biggest single-day gain in history. He does NOT, however, take ANY responsibility for his crash that set the whole thing up. “Down bad. Not trump fault. Up good. trump genius.”

But then people got wind of the fact that he hadn’t been completely clear in his retreat. He didn’t completely pause the tariffs. He left his 10% across the board tariffs and not only left the insane tariffs in place on China, he increased them. “Ladies and gentlemen, please stand clear of the door. Going DOWN!” Like, 1,000 points.

Meanwhile, MTG went on a buying spree. She was snapping up stocks at an amazing rate. Those were bargain basement deals, you know, and she wasn’t going to miss out. Never mind that it’s clearly insider trading. There’s a new rule in the US: it ain’t illegal if nobody enforces the law.

Felon 47 is manipulating the market. Congress has the power to stop the crimes through impeachment. Congress won’t do it, seemingly because Congress is profiting and crooked, too. No law enforcement is exactly equal to no laws.

Well, it’s not NO enforcement. Dems are calling for investigations into market manipulation, meaning there ARE people in Congress interested in doing the right thing. Just not enough of them to get the right thing done…

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

There’s a practice I know of called “inoculation.” I mean politically, not medically, though the meaning is similar. In political inoculation, one accuses his opponent of doing something SO loudly, SO long, and SO obviously untrue, people get tired of hearing about it, just sick of it. THEN, the person making the false claim does exactly the thing they accused their opponent of doing. When someone says, “Hey, he just –,” everyone groans. “Oh, gods, don’t start THAT again!”

When 47 was 45, he did such a terrible, horrible, bad job, the people who were still alive came out in record numbers to vote against him. (That was Biden’s biggest mistake, thinking people had voted FOR him and never realizing they were actually voting AGAINST the Drumpfster.) Donny started right in with the ‘Stop the Steal’ crap. He even got his loyal acolytes to attack the Capitol in a show of “outrage” that the election had been “stolen.”

Bear in mind, he never, EVER presented even the tiniest modicum of any legitimate evidence supporting his case, but he never EVER shut up about it. People just got sick and tired of hearing about it. Now there’s increasing evidence that well-placed supporters of the Drumpfster used a variety of methods to manipulate the outcome of the 2024 “election.” But when one tries to mention that to someone, the common reaction is, “Oh, gods, don’t start THAT again!” Just like it’s supposed to be.

We know about the illegally purged voter roles. We know about fires in collection boxes in heavily Democratic districts. We know about the bomb threats at heavily Democratic polling places. Now we’re seeing statistical analyses indicating vote manipulation as well. To be clear, NONE of this is offered as definitive “proof.” It doesn’t stand as proof. These analyses are best described as indicators and should trigger an actual investigation.

Think of it this way, a cop walks into a room and sees a body laying in the corner with no head. The head is found in a box on the table in the next room. Near the body is a note that reads, “I wasn’t murdered. I killed myself because I’m so depressed.” You could chalk that up to suicide. After all, there’s a note. But the question of exactly how one commits “suicide” by cutting off one’s own head, putting in a box on a table, then moving their own body to the next room should prompt questions. There should be an investigation.

Do you want to see for yourself? I don’t much like links because they break over time, but here you go: This one is called ‘Nathan 2024 Election Overview [Election Truth Alliance].‘ It’s a 17 minute video providing an overview of statistical findings.
This one is an abstract by the same group covering a more focused study in Nevada. It’s called, ‘Analysis of 2024 Election Results in Clark County Indicates Manipulation.

The reality is, the US doesn’t “fix” it’s elections, even if we DO know they weren’t “right.” I know that nothing will be done about it. Mostly, I’m marveling at the long-term vision of whomever it was who hated America SO much they thought they should decimate it by replacing our Constitutional Republic with…this. The plan was evil, no doubt. But it was solid, and it worked. Think of the detail. They KNEW to inoculate the populace by having Donny flap his jaw so much for four years, we all just got sick of it. A four year setup indicates something more formal than just mere coincidence, wouldn’t you say?

But THIS time, there’s a difference. The left isn’t attacking the Capitol based on a story they heard from a friend’s friend’s acquaintance’s mother as seen on MAGA media “opinion” outlets. These are readily demonstrable events, that actually took place and were reported by legitimate news outlets at the time, followed by statistical analyses showing some incredible results. For example, did you know that the likelihood of 47 winning ALL of the swing states the way he did is comparable to him winning the Mega Millions lottery seven times in a row?

Here’s what’s worse. As usual, he effing TOLD us. He said that Elon, “knows those computers better than anybody, all those computers, those vote counting computers, and we ended up winning Pennsylvania, like, in a landslide.”

The reason this is important is not that it will change who occupies the White House. It won’t. But the analyses ALSO indicated unexpected behavior for certain, select Senate races. If they’re manipulating Senate races, too, the electorate can NEVER correct this “error,” even though we desperately need to…
