War

Wrapping Up The Weekend…

by MyBaconPress

Ah. I knew there would be a gimmick. I just didn’t know what kind. He bragged he’d give a long speech despite the high temperature just to prove he can do anything. I thought maybe he’d give the speech from an air conditioned building or maybe with coolers directed at him. I didn’t think of ‘late-at-night,’ but he did. That worked, too. He gave the speech from a stage strategically located to hide the Reflecting Pool. But he promised he’d have the Reflecting Pool finished and ready to show off by the Fourth. Yet another promise made, promise not kept.

Apparently, he tried to give a standard political ‘Ain’t-America-Great?’ speech. He only veered off into his favorite tangents a little bit. It lacked greatness. No memorable lines, no soaring rhetoric. I even heard it referred to as boring rhetoric. He’s not good at staying on topic when the topic is not him. Someone referred to him as ‘Teleprompter Trump.’ They try to get him to stay on task by getting him to stick to the teleprompter but he has the attention span of a three-year-old and his aging mind wanders.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a trump event if it didn’t include white supremacists. So the hate group Patriot Front showed up, faces carefully covered, and marched the Confederate flag down the street. Do you think they covered their faces out of concern over Covid-19? That’s awfully respectful for a hate group. But they weren’t just hiding their identities, were they? Wouldn’t that be cowardice? How does one take a stand on an issue while hiding? If you believe a thing, why hide? No, it must have been the Covid thing. Thanks, haters.

White supremacists marching down the street? Obviously, when 47 started flapping his lips, he used the opportunity to condemn, uh, <checks notes> right, communism. Obviously. Communism isn’t a problem of any kind in this once-great nation, and racism and white supremacy have been put on steroids since our racist pedophile president came to public attention so it makes perfect sense to condemn the imaginary problem while overlooking the actual problem. Classic trump.

He pretended there were 350,000 people there, too. From what I’ve seen, he might get a tenth of that throughout the entire event. I often find myself wondering if those people he always see are in the room with me right now? Hey, maybe he does see them, like Cole Sear in ‘The Sixth Sense.’ “I see dead people.” Maybe he’s seeing the ghosts of all of the people he’s killed already…

Israel is establishing thirteen more new settlements. They’re strategically positioned to ensure no contiguous Palestinian state can ever exist. I suspect that also means they’re strategically positioned to ensure no peace in the region in the foreseeable future. These settlements are one of the biggest complaints of the non-Israelis living in the area.

Ever since Israel expelled the Palestinians from the area called Israel in 1948, the Palestinians have been fighting back. Badly, it’s true but they’ve tried. Israel, though, tends to encroach a little at a time. They’ve never stopped. It’s like the person sitting next to you on an airplane who slowly, but surely, pushes your elbow off the armrest by pushing their own further and further onto the armrest.

Israel just keeps encroaching. Another settlement, then another, then another, then another. The goal is clear and obvious. Israel wants ALL of that land for themselves and they’re taking it – by stealth and by force. If you happen to notice that Israel is always the aggressor in these matters, you run the risk of be called antisemitic. That’s a cheap dodge by defenders of Israel. What the government of Israel is doing has nothing to do with Judaism – and it’s just plain wrong…

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

In a rare moment of sanity, the corrupt Supremely Kangaroo Court upheld the US Constitution over Donny’s whims. In this case, they supported birthright citizenship, just because it’s written in plain English in the Constitution. That’s no guarantee with these clowns, but, in this case, they did the right thing. Donny doesn’t like being told no, and he absolutely abhors when people do the right thing.

So now Team Evil is considering banning foreign pregnant women from entering the country at all. Isn’t that lovely? Now women have to promise they’re not pregnant if they want to visit. Cons think there’s such a thing as “Birth Tourism,” in which women travel to the US for no other reason than to deliver an anchor baby. Now they’re doing everything in their power to stop that.

Come to think of it, if 47 stays in power much longer, the US will become such a crappy little country to be in, nobody will want to be here. Perhaps he’s not just a terrible manager, after all. Perhaps he’s destroying the country to discourage “birth tourism.” That’s a little like setting a broken arm by killing the patient. The broken arm won’t be a problem anymore, sure, but it seems like going too far to achieve the goal…

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

So, did you notice the number of events that were cancelled because it was just too effing hot? Not so much here in the west but in the east, oh, man, are they suffering. All kinds of traditional Fourth of July events were cancelled. Parades? Gone. Fireworks displays? Out. Too hot. Too dangerous.

I’m really split as to which threat wipes out humanity first, AI or climate change. I’d say this weekend, climate change has made a bold move to be in first place. AI is going to have to come from behind, like an unexpected checkmate in a game where you just didn’t see it coming until your opponent is laughing in your face.

Besides, climate change has a real advantage. We set it up to operate automatically. It’s in it’s own feedback loop so, as long as we just keep pumping more and more pollutants into the air, Donny’s goal, it will get worse and worse on it’s own. After a while – and the deadline is fast approaching now – we won’t be able to stop it. Hell, the deadline may have already passed. Please note the term: DEADline.

We were warned. Long before we started seeing the effects of climate change, we started hearing about them. We ignored them. Once the effects started, we couldn’t ignore them anymore. But we did anyway. When public awareness picked up, so did mis- and disinformation. Our very existence was reduced to a political game, and there it sits.

Now we’re starting to suffer the more severe aspects of climate change – and we ain’t seen nothin’ yet. But politics is still in charge. That’s just stupid at this point. It looks very much like humanity is going to stupid itself out of existence. That’s just embarrassing…

Lie, Lie, Lie…

The reflecting pool has cameras on it 24/7. Many people know this. That makes it a simple matter to release video of the evil-doer who dared cut a slash into the new liner with a knife which, according to 47, couldn’t be cut with a knife. That makes it sound like he just makes things up as he goes along, doesn’t it? In order to prove THAT point, the making things up part, officials DID release video of the evil vandal, asking for help locating the “perp.”

In the video, one can clearly see – well, no, it’s not really all that clear – a woman reach into the Reflecting Pool and, um, pull out a piece of the already floating liner. That’s “vandalism” in Donny’s book, seeing the results of his failure. Which means we’re ALL “vandals” because we’ve seen the East Wing. We’ve seen his gaudy makeover of the White House, or should it be the Fake Gold House now? And now we’ve all seen his makeover of the Reflecting Pool. I know he loves to brag on himself, but based on what I’ve seen, he sucks at building.

What I did NOT see in that video, was anybody using a knife to cut a gash into the uncuttable liner. But that was how the video was released, “proof” of the vandalism he claims. We all know who the actual vandal is. What we DON’T know is if there’s method to his madness or if he’s just completely incompetent. It turns out, one does NOT hire workers based on loyalty alone. All he had to do was hire a company that knew what they were doing, but he gave the no-bid contract – paid by your tax dollars – to a crony instead…

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

When a group of people planned to attack Donny’s desecration of the White House with a UFC event, right wing media was quick to paint them as lefties but it turns out, nope. They were a collection of far-right nutballs. They came together over the internet. They verified each other’s identities and ideologies then moved to private chat rooms to rant anti-government slogans and plan an attack.

They were going to create a distraction, then bomb the event with drone-borne bombs, causing a panic. When people fled, so-called “high value targets” were to be picked off by snipers. I say again, these were far right nutballs, but they were targeting Republicans. The thing is, they chose their targets with the help of a left-wing website that tracks politicians who receive donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the pro-Israel lobby group.

That’s what right-wing media seized on to “prove” the conspirators were lefties. It’s a two-fer. They get to smear the left AND they get to pretend the right isn’t as angry at Donny’s failures as everyone else. But the group’s focus seemed to be on Trump constantly taking the knee to Netanyahu. They didn’t like that one little bit.

I thought this was interesting: the would-be attackers talked a lot about the Trump/Epstein files and how the regime wasn’t releasing them. Right-wing media used those comments to note that they had “parroted Democrat conspiracy theories about President Trump protecting child predators connected to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.” I added the emphasis to the ‘Democrat conspiracy theories‘ bit.

It was The Drumpfster himself who whipped the right up into a frenzy about the Trump/Epstein files, though he DID leave his own name out of it. Everyone, everyone, everyone NOT in those files wanted them released. But, apparently, MAGA has now been successfully conditioned to repeat the idea that the whole thing is a left-wing conspiracy.

By the way, have you noticed that not one of the people noted in the Trump/Epstein files has been arrested or even investigated in the US? Look wrong at the Reflecting Pool and you’re doing hard time. Diddle a child in the Trump/Epstein Pedo ring and 47 will “cover your six.”

Apparently, this particular group of not-so-much geniuses expected the attack to launch the second revolution. Why is it these guys always see themselves as some kind of savior? Racists in this country often relate to a book called ‘The Turner Diaries’ that paints a picture of one event triggering a race war so the glorious white people can finally get rid of all those “other people” once and for all.

They see themselves as heroes in their misguided efforts. They won’t get the glorious outcomes they expect, but they expect them anyway. Boneheads…

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

Donny’s war-that’s-not-a-war looks like it might be devolving into war again. There’s lots of shooting going on and 47 keeps flapping his stupid lips, trying to tough-talk his way out of the nightmare he tough-talked his way in to. He said he wouldn’t start any foreign wars. He lied. He said he could solve it easily. He clearly lied. He told MAGA only HE could fix the problems. Lie, lie, lie. Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie. Lie, lie, lie. Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie…

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

Oh, yeah, yet another failure. His State Fair. Nobody seems all that interested. Nobody is going. Word is, nothing works there. The food is mundane. There are two rides. The Ferris Wheel doesn’t work half the time. Finally, he shut the thing down, at least for the evening, blaming the weather. He might be trying to correct the failures. My prediction? Things are about to get worse. That’s just the way it is with this guy. He touches something, it turns to crap.

They built a little replica of the arch he hopes to build in honor of his disgusting self. Remember, this thing has only been going on for a very short time. There’s no reason in the world their little replica should be in shoddy condition – but it is. It’s already falling apart and the failure is visible from the “Freedom 250 Ferris Wheel.” Classic Trump. Failure at every turn. It seems the only thing this guy is even remotely competent at is crime. THAT he can do, and he does it every day…

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

Texas has passed a law requiring all public students to read the Bible, or at least, passages from the Bible. Lovely. That’s probably for moral teachings. I wonder if they’ll read the part about Noah’s daughters getting him drunk and having sex with him. How about the guy who gave his concubine to a group of drunken men to use as they please, then had HER executed and her body parts spread about the region, do you think they’ll focus on that? Will they focus on Abraham, who nearly murdered his own son because of the voice in his head?

It’s a good thing I’m not a teacher in Texas because those are the passages I would focus on. You know, until I got fired. Hey, I’d be reading from the Bible as the law requires. Full compliance. That shouldn’t be a problem…

Trying To Hide Reality…

by MyBaconPress

Really, what a coward. He got ordered to take his name off of the Kennedy Center. He fought it, but he lost. He ALWAYS loses fair fights. But he’s a petty and petulant little man and he put up a cover to hide the spot where his name had been but is no more. Now he won’t take the cover down. I suspect he’s embarrassed that he has been so completely, publicly rebuked, with his name NOT being there as the evidence. Excuses. It’s always excuses with that weasel.

Now, to be fair, the regime says they’re leaving the cover up until work is done repairing the damage he did when he slapped his stupid name up there in the first place. That could be true but it isn’t necessary. We all know what happened and how it happened. We all know Donny broke the law and was corrected by the courts. We all know his stupid name came down. We know the holes need to be repaired. We also know he knows he has humiliated himself and now he hopes nobody notices him putting up a great big cover that draws attention in an attempt to hide it. He’ll need a new excuse soon…

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

Speaking of excuses, now Team Evil is saying the reflecting pool was vandalized. Yeah, that’s the ticket, it was vandalized. No, he doesn’t mean what he did. He means by someone else. They’ve even made arrests! For instance, they arrested three-time Olympian David Hearn as one of the “vandals.” According to him, he just stopped when he saw some of the floating paint and wanted to touch it to see how it felt.

No details on anyone else, but if that’s the quality of the case, it seems like some patsies are going to have to face a legal fight just so 47 doesn’t have to admit being such a complete failure. Weaponized government, anyone? MAGA loves it because they don’t realize they could be victimized just as easily. All they have to do is be in the wrong place at time when 47 needs a fall-guy.

Now that the regime has it’s headline though, ‘Donny cries it is NOT is fault, see?’ the accused will likely enjoy a quiet dismissal of charges. Excuses…

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

The guy just lies. Like, all the time. He went to the G7 conference, at which he was tolerated but not truly welcomed. Then he calls in to an Italian radio program and claims that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni “begged me to take a picture with her. She wanted a picture with me so ​badly. I wouldn’t have taken it, but I felt sorry for her.” He said, “She’s probably happy I talked to her. I didn’t have to talk to her.”

That seems like projection, to me. HE was the one standing alone, with no one near him when the photo op took place and any informal gathering of the G7 attendees left him alone and isolated, each time. HE was the one who wanted some to talk to him. The world hates him and he knows it. Also, he cares a LOT more than he lets on. He really wants someone, somewhere to like him. I know, MAGA loves him, but he thinks they’re stupid. He doesn’t give two figs about their opinion so they don’t count.

He wants someone he admires to admire him back and he was hoping to piggyback to a bit of that feeling by claiming Meloni tried to get closer to him. She was having none of it. “Donald Trump’s statements are completely made up,” she said in Italian. “I am, frankly, astonished. I don’t ‌know why ⁠the president of the United States behaves like this towards his allies, and it’s not the first time.”

They used to get along. I suspect he hoped in citing her, she might support his lie. But no one – NO ONE – wants to be associated with the Drumpfster. Well, no one decent, anyway…

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

Oh, so he’s rolling out his new Air Force One, the luxury jet “gifted” to him from Qatar. It’s painted darker than most of it’s predecessors. It costs more to fly a plane painted with dark paint. He doesn’t care about that. He’s not paying for that – you are! This plane is so big, it can only land at certain airports. That could mean his trips will take longer and require second legs, as he lands at the airport the plane CAN land at, then transfers to some other craft to reach his destination.

He doesn’t care about that. He’s not paying for that – you are! And it only cost $400 million dollars to renovate for his use for the next couple of years. That’s pretty extravagant but, of course, he’s not paying for that – you are! The planes he retired are still fine. They’re just old.

There are two brand new planes being readied to serve as Air Force One but they got delayed and won’t be around until 2028. Then he plans to “retire” this plane to his so-called presidential library, which, based on his apparent lifestyle, will be a run-down single-wide out in a field somewhere with broken down cars scattered around it – everything spray-painted gold, of course…

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

Hey, is now a good time to remind you that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were best friends and likely co-conspirators in a sex trafficking scheme for years and years? He’s trying very hard to distract people because he wants people to forget that. People are not forgetting that. Don’t you forget that…

Too Much Stuff…

by MyBaconPress

Okay, so this is an abbreviated post. As it happens, I’m moving house! Wait, didn’t I just DO that, like, two years ago? Yep. Sure did. Here we go again. The family group is growing and we need more space, so it’s a good thing. But, I’m too old to move every two years. There’s too much stuff. My back has collapsed over those two years. There’s too much stuff. We started eliminating things when we moved last time and realized there’s too much stuff. Not enough eliminating, though. There’s still too much stuff. We’re getting rid of more. But, OMG, there’s too much stuff.

So we’ve BEEN moving things over the course of the last month. The BIG things go today. Then there’s mop-up duty, both moving the last of the littler things and cleaning the house. As my bi-annual moving odyssey continues, I keep thinking, “My kids are just going to have to dump this crap when I die.” I’m going to keep getting rid of things. (I like the kids.) I just can’t believe how much stuff I have.

We moved two years ago, got rid of some stuff. We moved two years before that, got rid of some stuff. There’s STILL a LOT of stuff. (Pro tip: if you’ve lived in the same house for 10, 20, 30, maybe 50 years, you have too much stuff. Think of the children!)

But it’s likely going to affect my ability to post for a couple of days. I’m writing this on Friday, in fact. It will be automatically posted Saturday so, by then, the world may be completely at peace or trapped in total war and I will have missed it. Well, writing about it, anyway. I’m sure I’ll notice, either way…

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

He didn’t drain the swamp. He built a new one. Badly. Leave it up to the Charlatan-in-Chief to screw up the process. I mean, really, is there ANYTHING he touches he doesn’t destroy? Anything at all? First, the whole thing turned green. That was followed by excuses. Now the paint is shedding and floating in the water in various sized sheets. This will be followed by excuses, too.

Excuses he can do. Success? Not so much. Now he’ll yell at people. It was his idea. It was his contractor. It was his project. But soon, he won’t know anything about it. He won’t “know anything about” the contractor, the one he claimed to love for taking such sweet, sweet care of his swimming pool. BTW, swimming pools are different than reflecting pools. His swimming pool guy might well do a good job on a swimming pool. That does NOT qualify him to work on the reflecting pool.

Soon, 47 won’t even know who started this project. But it was still him. His idea, his contractor, his project – and he screwed it up royally, cause that’s what he does…

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

“The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history. After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump.” – Conservative Bill Kristol…

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

I enjoyed the shot of the G7 summit where all the members stood together for a photo shoot, then broke out into social groups and left our National Embarrassment standing all alone with no one to talk to. The entire world hates Trump. That’s what MAGA loves about him most, how much disdain the world has for him. They don’t seem to realize that disdain affects them, too…

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

Oh, no! Netanyahu called some shots. MORE missiles fired into Lebanon. 47 needs that to stop because it’s a condition Iran has imposed and since they won his war, they get to dictate the terms. But if Netanyahu stops attacking Arabs in Lebanon and Gaza, he faces criminal action, so he can’t stop, even if he wanted to, which he very definitely does not.

But Donny needs the elections to go his way or HE faces criminal action so he needs to end his war-that’s-not-a-war in an effort to get gas prices down because people are furious at his terrible management of the economy and it shows most in inflation of gas and food prices. So if one guy faces jail if he stops his military actions, and the other guy faces jail if he doesn’t stop his military actions, and the two military actions are tied together, how much cooperation should each expect from the other? I just wish human beings weren’t trapped in the middle…

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

I saw this headline in the Guardian on Friday morning, “Over-reliance on chatbots can diminish critical-thinking skills, study finds.” Lovely. The very last thing this country needs is greater diminishing of critical-thinking skills. Far, far, FAR too many Americans clearly have NO critical-thinking skills at all, and now it’s getting worse? Yeah, just lovely…

Our Department of Injustice…

by MyBaconPress

Investigating Gavin Newsom? Sure, why not? The DOJ has announced an investigation. No word on what prompted it. It seems to be about seeing what’s what. It seems to be about smearing Newsom. To this day, people who don’t understand things (MAGA) will tell you how terrible it was that the DOJ “weaponized government” because they investigated 47 and his myriad shady dealings.

They see these other, current, harassment investigations as the same thing. As usual, they’re wrong. Every investigation of Donald J. Trump happened AFTER evidence of possible crimes was uncovered. Every. Single. One. In order to maintain the position they hold, they have to start by dismissing all of that evidence. So, suddenly, thousands and thousands of people are lying about trump’s crimes, and the accused, trump, is the only person telling the truth.

Team Evil’s DOJ “investigates” people just to see if they can find anything. Or just to harass them. There’s always that. In this case, it’s mostly about smearing Newsom since everyone knows Gavin wants to run for President in 2028. Donny thinks a little “preemptive investigation” might be in order. 47 is conducted one weaponized government investigation after another – and not a peep from MAGA. THOSE weaponized government investigations are fine, just fine…

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

Well, it’s optimistic, anyway. On July 4th of this year, the America 250 commission is burying a time capsule in Philadelphia meant to be opened in 2276. 250 years from now. Time capsules can be fun, but in this case, I’m not sure there will be anybody around in 2276 to open the thing up. The only real remaining question is what gets us first, A.I. or climate change? Either way, I suspect that time capsule will be buried for WAY longer than 250 years…

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

June 16 marked the date Abraham Lincoln gave a famous speech in 1858. It’s called the ‘House Divided’ speech. He used a phrase from the Bible and said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” (It’s Matthew 12:25, if you’re curious.) It was a good warning when Jesus said it. It was a good warning when Lincoln said it. And we’re living with it, right now, MAGA vs reality.

We are a house divided and we’ve been divided intentionally, by people who would see our “house” fall for their own gain. It doesn’t surprise me that people might try to undermine our once-great nation. That’s been going on since the founding. It DOES surprise -and, I confess, disappoint – me that so many Americans went along with the process so willingly…

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

Oh, no! Who could have guessed? Maybe we don’t have a deal with Iran after all? No, we do. It was electronically signed yesterday. Well, not a deal, so much as a deal to do a deal. There are still some sticking points. For one thing, 47 is going to have to get Netanyahu to cooperate. But, hey, it’s a deal. No, not as good as the deal Obama negotiated but let’s get real, Obama knew what he was doing. Our National Embarrassment does not. At least people might stop dying.

Donny’s “deal” would only get us back to where we were before he attacked. Oh, AND cost the US $300 billion in reparations. Suddenly, Donny says it’s “common sense” that Iran should have a nuclear program. Not weapons, of course, but for electricity? Sure. The Master Negotiator negotiated his way into a worse position than he had been in, and only several hundred people had to die for him to achieve his giant step backward. Last Sunday night, 47 authorized “the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade.” I wonder if the ships left. It just feels like putting a moron in charge of everything was a dumb idea…

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

He’s desperate, but he’s dangerous when he’s desperate. He really, really wants – no, needs – that voting corruption bill of his to pass. It’s called the SAVE Act because he needs it to save his ass by allowing him unprecedented control over voting. In an effort to force Congress to pass it, he has pulled his nomination of Jay Clayton to be our newest unqualified Director of National Intelligence.

This means Bill Pulte continues in the interim role, despite having no history of intelligence. This gets confusing because the fight is about the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), Section 702, which expired Friday, June 12. Congress is trying to revive it. The Dumbass wants the SAVE Act tied to the Section 702 bill so it will pass incidentally, so Donny held Clayton’s nomination specifically to pressure Congress by leaving Pulte in place.

It’s kind of an admission that even Donny knows Pulte sucks, if he can try to use Pulte’s existence as a threat. “Do what I say or I’ll leave Pulte in place.” Ole’ Bill must feel pretty good about that…

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

My father was seven years old in 1943 and my grandfather was an officer in the army. WWII. At the time, my father had a full uniform made for him that showed him as the rank of Captain. He would wear that Captain’s uniform when he accompanied my grandfather as my grandfather visited soldiers. (He was a Chaplin.) According to my father, the soldiers would inevitably treat the at-the-time seven-year-old boy exactly as though he were an actual Captain. What fun for the child.

That’s what I think of when I hear Donny exclaim things like, “He doesn’t call the shots. I call the shots.” He was talking about Netanyahu, who is definitely calling the shots. Or more recently when he walked into a meeting of the G7 and declared, “I am the boss.” Yeah, he appeared to be joking but 47 doesn’t joke about things like that. He really does want to be the boss. He’s just so unqualified. People will humor him, sure, but nobody is taking him very seriously. They’re just trying to keep the little boy quiet…

The White Trash White House…

by MyBaconPress

47 got his UFC fight, disgracing the White House. Bully for him. I’m not a UFC fan but my understanding is that many of the fighters were old. You know, for professional fighters. They put an old guy against a young buck and let them go. According to ‘The Guardian,’ “Every bout on the seven-fight card ended by knockout or technical knockout, the first time that has happened in the UFC’s 33-year history.”

The main event ended with an upset. 37 year old Justin Gaethje beat up previously unbeaten Ilia Topuria who many regard as the sport’s top pound-for-pound fighter. Yeah, the old American beat up the younger “feriner,” currently considered the best in the game. EVERY fight ended with a KO or TKO with the final match being an unlikely upset by an old guy? It feels like, perhaps, the fix was in. Look, I don’t have any evidence to that effect, so it must be true, right?

Yeah, I know, 47 has stolen billions of dollars so he’s rich, but that dude is as white trash as they come. I kind of expect to see broken down cars on the South Lawn any day now. I’m not sure he can surprise me with his debasements any more. If I found out his next planned event was a wet T-shirt contest or he was cooking Meth in the Lincoln Bedroom, I’d just shrug and file it under ‘More of the same.’ What more could anybody possibly expect from this guy?

The White Trash White House, brought to you by Donald Trump and Team Evil. I remember when the US was respected and behaved with dignity. I do…

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

Say, we have a deal with Iran! Well, we have a deal to make a deal. Um, it’s more of a framework to consider details of a possible deal to make a deal down the road. Apparently, the shooting is going to stop for awhile, though. That’s good. The US and Iran have agreed to talk about the things they’ve been killing each other over for the last three months. It’s less of a final peace agreement and more of an extension of the cease fire.

That is good, don’t get me wrong. But the sticking points still to be discussed include the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s enriched uranium. Oh, AND, Israel is still going to kill Palestinians. No, they haven’t said it that way. But Israel made clear they’re staying in Lebanon and that, likely, means more killing. The price of a barrel of oil started falling right away. I wouldn’t expect any concurrent savings at the pump, if I were you, though. Price increases pass on to us quickly. Price decreases are always in less of a hurry, because Capitalism works for the Capitalist, not the consumer.

Last night, 47 posted, “I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” But then an hour passed and he acknowledged that, no, it’s not open yet. First they have to sign a deal – scheduled for this Friday – and even that is about mine removal. Oh, AND the “toll free” part of his claim is not settled, either.

Iran says the deal getting done includes the the phrase, “Iranian arrangements,” which, Iran maintains, means they still get to charge ships to pass through the strait. So, to review, the war-that’s-not-a-war started over enriched uranium (still not settled), Israel attacking Palestinians (still not settled), and free travel in the Strait of Hormuz (still not settled).

It seems to be an awfully big splash over an awfully uncertain conclusion, but at least some of the killing might stop for a while…

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

I saw a meme that read, “While you were so worried that Socialism would take your freedoms, Capitalism stole your pension, took your savings, destroyed the climate, shipped your job overseas, robbed you of health care, dismantled the educational system, and shackled you with debt, leaving you only your racism, xenophobia, patriarchy, and guns.”

It’s a good meme except it left one out: Capitalism has taken your freedoms, too…

If you’re sporting a certain amount of grey in your hair, you’ve met somebody in your lifetime – or possibly BEEN somebody in your lifetime – who has known Polio. It’s a pretty horrifying illness, leaving it’s victims paralyzed or dead. People who survive often have lifelong physical struggles as a result. It was a tremendous blessing when a vaccine was introduced to combat Polio. It allowed for peace of mind, knowing your child was protected. Polio in the US, became something of a thing of the past.

It turns out, that’s bad news. It made Polio rather abstract. For years, young mothers didn’t have to worry baby might contract Polio. The reality of Polio was less in-your-face. That created a luxury space where people could pretend it wasn’t so bad and that vaccines are the real enemy. Young mothers who make that mistake run an extremely high risk of learning exactly how bad Polio is via their own children. By then, it’s too late.

I mention it because there was a news story that Mitch, the bitch, McConnell is in the hospital with some ailment likely related to his age. The story included the fact that McConnell had contracted Polio as a child and walks with difficulty to this day because of it. McConnell voted against the RFK, Jr nomination, largely because of RFK’s moronic, wrong-headed stance on vaccines.

I don’t like McConnell but he did the right thing, there. He did it because he KNOWS Polio. Those of us who remember the scourge – whether it touched us directly or not – embraced the vaccine. I’m not looking forward to the reality of life without vaccines – by choice…

Market Manipulation…

by MyBaconPress

It’s a simple enough scheme. He announces he’s going to bomb the crap out of Iran and the stock market drops. This represents a buying opportunity to anybody who happens to know the situation will change. Then, he announces he’s decided not to bomb them because peace is at hand. The market recovers, he makes tons of money. It’s called market manipulation. It’s a crime. He does it a lot. I believe the current count is twenty-seven times, or thereabouts.

Until very recently, Iran had maintained that no peace agreement is close at hand. Really, we the people of the United States of America ought to listen to the Iranian leaders when it comes to the question of peace. We know we can’t trust them, but nobody – nobody – lies like a trump, and among the trumps, 47 is the master liar…

I thought I had seen video of workers removing his evil name from The Kennedy Center shortly after the judge ordered him to take it down, but I guess I was mistaken. A lawsuit was filed and a delay requested. The delay was refused and now his name is coming off of the building – for real, this time. Lovely…

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

The headline said, “Palestinian American woman held without charge by Israeli military.” Held without charge. That’s the language. When a Palestinian grabs a person and holds them against their will, the press everywhere calls the person grabbed a “hostage.” When an Israeli grabs a person and holds them against their will, the press everywhere calls the person grabbed a “prisoner.” The person grabbed is a hostage in both cases. The world should use the correct term.

Speaking of Israel, did you see how Netanyahu just obeyed Donny’s commands? 47 insisted. HE calls the shots. Bibi doesn’t call the shots. Then Bibi called a few shots, once again scuttling any chance our Fearful Misleader had of getting out of his Iranian debacle. Donny fumed, of course, but didn’t do anything else. What’s he going to do, stop providing the weapons Netanyahu uses to trap Donny in Iran? I wouldn’t count on that, if I were you…

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

Speaking of which, there’s word from various sources that an end to the hostilities with Iran is at hand. Even the Iranians have said so at this point. 47 says the deal will be signed today but only an idiot still believes 47 about anything. The Iranians have said a deal could be signed sometime this week, though. At this point, the Iranians have more credibility.

So, Bibi launched another assault on Beirut. It’s weird, but the deal between Iran and the US is contingent on Israel giving up it’s warlike ways in Palestine. Netanyahu says he won’t tolerate people shooting into Israel – as he should not. But it seems he won’t even tolerate CLAIMS that someone shot into Israel, which he can make anytime he wants. And he does.

Israel loves to run around claiming ‘victim’ status, but they’ve been running an aggressive war of attrition against the Arabs in the region since the 1948 purge. They’ve been relentless. Inexorable. And now Netanyahu thinks he can see the end, his ‘Final Solution,’ as it were. Either that, or he’s trying to keep the war going to stay out of jail. That’s a real possibility, too.

So Bibi keeps making claims and firing weapons and gumming up the peace talks between our Foolhardy, Felonious, Feckless Fuckup and Iran. I don’t mind the Drumpfster being shown up for the gullible fool he is before the entire planet. I enjoy it, in fact. But in this case, the financial burden is killing me…

Hey, is now a good time to remind you that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were best friends and likely co-conspirators in a sex trafficking scheme for years and years? He’s trying very hard to distract people because he wants people to forget that. People are not forgetting that. Don’t you forget that.

According to recently released Trump/Epstein files, there was an FBI intake form in which a tipster claimed that President Pedo “knew and funded underage sex parties” at one of his golf courses. There is no record of the follow-up, and I have no evidence to support the claim. So, according to MAGA Mike the Johnson, it must be true…

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

Okay, here we go. Kevin Warsh, 47’s handpicked sock puppet now running the Fed is about to chair his first meeting of the bank’s rate setting committee. Remember when Donny promised to reduce inflation? Yeah, yet another promise made, promise not kept. In fact, promise broken in spectacular fashion.

When inflation was high under Biden, it was because Trump had allowed the Covid-19 virus to spread so widely it crashed the world economy. One does not easily recover from that kind of damage, but Biden did it – well ahead of the rest of the world. That’s because Joe Biden was a FAR better, FAR smarter President.

Donny’s been infesting the Oval for about 17 months, now, and he’s already got inflation on the rise again. A three year high, in fact. And HIS only excuse is his own terrible judgement (though he blames everyone else). So inflation is going up and the Fed’s normal response to that is higher interest rates to cool the market. But Donny’s a dumbass and he wants interest rates lower.

Warsh is in the job in the first place because Donny knows Donny can tell Warsh what to do and when. The only saving grace is this: Warsh doesn’t get to make the decision alone. There’s a board. So, does Warsh try to do the right thing and maintain rates at higher levels to battle Donny’s terrible management of the economy, or does he try to present Donny’s wishes as somehow important, and lower rates anyway? Bear in mind, Team Evil never does the right thing…

Congratulations to the New York Knicks. They won the NBA championship in five games, ending a 53-year drought. And, really, congratulations to the fans. They didn’t play, of course, but they stayed loyal. Players come and go. The fans stick around. The players likely didn’t feel that 53 year losing streak, but the fans did…

Flatlining the Economy – Again…

by MyBaconPress

So, Kevin Hassett goes on Fox Not-News and says, “People are spending more on gas but they’re also spending more on everything else. Not just groceries, but restaurants and so on. I think that’s a sign you see when people are optimistic about the future.”

Peculiar. *I* think that’s a sign you see when inflation is out of control and the day-to-day cost of living is harder and harder to keep up with. In the same “interview,” he agreed that people are falling behind on their credit card payments, but because defaults haven’t started – yet – he thinks everything is just fine. “It’s just people taking a little bit longer.”

The economy is crashing, folks. Team Evil is lying about it but 47 is taking it right back to where he left it the LAST time he infested the Oval Office – flatlined. Cons love to quote metrics that did, actually, exist during Biden’s administration. They just leave out the part where Biden had to fix all the damage Dumb Donald did with his horrific mishandling of Covid-19. They also leave out the part about how strong the economy was when Biden left. No, it wasn’t perfect, but it was a hell of a lot better than anything the Drumpfster has done. Someone put together a helpful chart. Have a look:

Chart comparing key prices under Biden vs Trump.

Yes, the numbers under the ‘Today’ column change. ALL of them are worse than when Biden left office. I have come to genuinely believe the United States is not going to survive two-and-a-half more years of 47…

Donny goes to Walter Reed for his fourth “annual” physical this year. Afterwards, he disappears. This guy’s ego is so fragile, he needs daily input from fawning admirers just to function. Disappearing from public view by choice is simply NOT an option for the old coot. So, people began to wonder, where the hell is he? Apparently, if you’re on the right, that question represents a left-wing conspiracy.

The Corrupt White House tried to quell the question with a statement that ended with, “Anyone using the President’s schedule to push left-wing conspiracies is a grade-A moron.” The grade-A MAGA morons lapped that up. Everyone else – thinking people – kept asking the question.

In my opinion, his dementia is getting worse and the treatment he’s been undergoing is becoming less effective. After the infusion, he seems to need some recovery time. Now we’ll get to hear about his great success taking his, what, fourth dementia test? And he STILL seems to think it’s an IQ test…

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

There’s a company out there called Doroni. They build “flying cars.” Well, they plan to. They haven’t delivered yet. Apparently, they’re getting ready to go public and you can buy stock, if you’re of a mind. I’m not sure. Flying cars add a dimension to driving. Literally. It’s not just forward/backward, left/right anymore. Flying cars add up/down.

Um, have you SEEN your fellow motorists? Have you driven recently? I drive a LOT. It looks, to me, like two dimensions is an extreme challenge for many of these people. What happens when there’s a third dimension? If I may paraphrase an infamous moron, nothing good can happen, it can only bad happen.

Like many people, I find the concept of a flying car intriguing. But the minute I think about practical application and the clueless drivers who zip down the road with no intention of turning, but their signals steadily blinking, people making right turns from left lanes – or left turns from right lanes, they’re not particular, people putting on their makeup or checking texts or reading something else? Let’s just say I get concerned.

I can’t speak to the rest of the world, but I can say with some sad certainty, too many Americans are FAR too stupid for flying cars. At BEST, I think buying Doroni stock is a long-term investment. They’re not just battling technological and regulatory challenges. They’ll have to increase the general intelligence of this once-great nation’s overall population by several points. And there’s something like 34% of the population working as hard as they can to guarantee they don’t learn a single thing, ever…

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

Remember when 47 encouraged his minions to attack the US Capitol building on January 6th, 2021, in an effort to disrupt the political process in hope of staying in power after losing the election because he’s a whiny, little bitch? I do. It was a horrifying moment in American history and it was orchestrated by Lying Donny. But when he gave the order, he spoke in a kind of code. Dog whistles. Memes. Tough-guy talk.

His intention was clear. Video exists of some of his minions saying so. They did what they knew he wanted them to do. “…they knew” somehow. But he never actually uttered the sentences “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you, and we fight. We fight like hell,” together. Those two sentences were spliced together by the BBC to make the code more clear to the uninitiated. That particular broadcast wasn’t shown in the US, only the UK.

Still, while the BBC accurately portrayed his message, they distorted his actual words. They’ve apologized and promised never to air that clip again. Donny sued anyway. He claimed “defamation.” (Pro tip, when simply describing the actual actions you actually took might constitute “defamation,” one should more carefully consider the action one is about to take, yes?)

Anyway, Donny claimed the truth about him damaged his reputation and cost him money. Frankly, I agree with Rupert Murdoch’s position on the topic of 47’s reputation: it’s so bad, SO deplorable, it’s not possible to defame him. Like it or not, President Pedo really DOES fit the Biblical description of the Antichrist. So, no-go on the defamed part. What about the money?

As part of the lawsuit, the BBC has asked for financial information to prove Lying Donny lost money because of the BBC broadcast. In a not-so-surprising twist, the Drumpfster has refused. So…what? Are we supposed to believe Lying Donny lost money because one of the lyingist liars in the history of lying made an assertion? If he claims financial damage but won’t offer any evidence of financial damage, shouldn’t the suit be dismissed?

More importantly, 47 filed the suit in a Florida court. The BBC is a British company and the segment in question was never broadcast in Florida nor anywhere else in the US. How does a Florida court have jurisdiction? I suspect Loser Don is about to lose again…

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

Since he IS the Antichrist, at this point, it’s pretty clear that 47 has unleashed The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse on the Earth. The White Horse is sometimes considered pestilence. Disease. And, as it happens, not just in humans. Officials have found a screwworm in cows for the first time since the 1960’s. Oh, AND the first time since Team Evil cut the funding for battling screwworms in cows. It’s similar to the sudden upsurge in childhood illnesses that are reappearing as Team Evil cuts funding for, or availability of, vaccines.

Why, it’s almost as if “governing” by “feels” is a bad, bad idea. And there’s something like 34% of the population working as hard as they can to guarantee they don’t learn a single thing, ever…

He’s SUCH A Loser…

by MyBaconPress

I suspect it might finally be dawning on 47 that Netanyahu has his own agenda, isn’t interested in Donny’s agenda, and is going to do what he’s going to do. Word is, Netanyahu tried to get other Presidents to attack Iran. None of them were foolish enough to bite. Then came trump, an amazingly stupid person who believes he’s the smartest person in any room. All anyone has to do is praise his intelligence and you can get pretty much anything you want. Like airstrikes on Iran, for example.

But Dumb Donald effed around and now he’s finding out. Iran isn’t the pushover Israel pretended. Iran DOES have some fighting capability AND the ability to hurt the US, as they’re proving. Sustained, near-record levels of gas prices are hurting Joe Sixpack and the economy. Oh, AND, Iran is hurting the chances of Republicans in elections as the economy spins out of control.

Lying Donny needs his ill-advised war to end. Now. Part of the peace deal is a requirement that Israel stop killing Palestinians. But Netanyahu seems hell-bent on taking ALL of the land in that region that once was NOT Israel. There are still illegal settlements. Bombs are still falling. People are still dying at war-like rates – and Bibi ain’t stopping.

So Sleepy Don needs Bibi to stop in Beirut in order to settle his war with Iran, and Bibi isn’t inclined to stop as he has goals of his own. THAT means President Pedo can’t stop his war with Iran, which means gas and other prices keep soaring higher and higher. The latest talks on a peace agreement included a demand in which Israel leaves Arabs alone. Lying Donny agreed, because he’s lost this war and has no choice. He has to accept conditions handed to him because he’s a loser.

So when Netanyahu went ahead and dropped a bunch more bombs on Lebanon, Donny got angry. 47 said Netanyahu was “f*cking crazy!” (I don’t think he said it with an asterisk.) He got Netanyahu on the phone and shouted at him in what people described as an “expletive-laden” call.

“You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me,” trump reportedly said to the Israeli leader. “I’m saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this. What the f*ck are you doing?” The answer, apparently, is ignoring Dumb Donald’s rant. 47 told us what a terrible negotiator he was during the campaign when he suggested he could solve the Russia/Ukraine war just by picking up the phone and saying to Putin, “Look, you son-of-a-bitch…” No more. Just that. That would end the war in what’s left of the Drumpfster’s mind.

After 47 straightened Netanyahu out, Israel released their own statement, showing the exact effect the tongue-lashing had on Netanyahu’s resolve. Their statement read that “Israeli forces will continue to operate “as planned” in southern Lebanon, and that he told Trump “if Hezbollah does not cease attacking our cities and citizens—Israel will attack terror targets in Beirut.”

That translates to, “Shut Up, Donald.” So the great negotiator can’t negotiate his way out of the war he started and he can’t shout his way to taming Netanyahu. It looks very much like Donald is NOT the master in charge he pretends to be. In fact, 47 is looking pretty impotent, to me. Donny got himself caught in a trap Netanyahu sprung – you know, the one the other, better Presidents were all too smart to get caught in.

It should be noted, MAGA has not turned away from the Drumpfster. I guess that means they like the higher gas prices and regime-change, war-of-choice 47 launched for no reason. This must be what MAGA wants, right? And here I thought they were against all of those things…

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

47 has named Bill Pulte to serve as acting Director of National Intelligence, a fitting choice from the no-nothing regime – a guy to run intelligence with no known history of intelligence. I mean the field, of course. Pulte currently leads the Federal Housing Finance Agency and apparently, the plan is to have him continue in that role, too. I guess splitting his time between agencies won’t be all that tough, considering the people in charge aren’t doing anything but blowing smoke for Donny, these days…

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

Scott Pelley, of ’60 Minutes’ fame, said of Bari Weiss, the hitperson brought in to sabotage ’60 Minutes’ to death, “She’s murdering 60 Minutes. She does not love this place. She was brought in to kill it and is doing exactly that.” Then, as if to prove his point, Weiss fired him. It’s probably a relief, more of a liberation than a dismissal. I would not want to be contractually obligated to a program that was being dismantled and distorted like is happening to ’60 Minutes,’ and getting fired might be the only way out of his contract. It’s a real shame. Team Evil is destroying everything, large and small…

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

Tom Steyer said Xavier Becerra might not be a good choice for governor because he is backed by “corporations and billionaires.” That’s a bit of weird argument to make. Steyer is a billionaire and he got that way by running a corporation. So Becerra is backed by corporations and billionaires – bad. But Steyer IS a corporate billionaire and that’s somehow better? I’m confused…

Meanwhile, the primary was two days ago and we still don’t know who won. That’s okay with me. I’d rather get it right than fast. It’s down to Steve Hilton, Xavier Becerra, and Tom Steyer. Hilton leads the pack which probably makes cons happy. He’s a trump toady. BUT…it must be remembered, there were only TWO candidates on the Republican ballot. On the Democratic side? Hell, the ballot looked like a phone book. (Ask your parents, kids.)

That means the Democratic vote was split between a bunch of candidates, many not even in the race anymore. Accused sexual assailant Eric Swalwell drew something like 18,000 votes. But the general election will be between only two, in this case (it doesn’t have to be that way), it looks like a Democrat and a Republican. In California, when each side focuses their hopes on their guy, Democrats win…

The Obsessive, Old Man…

by MyBaconPress

Very old, Lying Donny spent two hours obsession-posting yesterday. Two hours. Twenty-five posts. That means he posted an average of every 4.8 minutes. He’s upset that seven of the nine musical acts his team had announced for a concert backed out as they realized who was involved. These musical acts don’t want to be associated with trump because trump sucks. So, he got a better idea. He’ll give a speech! Ooh, ah.

So, obviously, if people are staying away in droves because of how badly 47 sucks, he has to claim people love him. He described himself as, “(T)he Number One Attraction anywhere in the World, the man who gets much larger audiences than Elvis in his prime, and he does so without a guitar, the man who loves our Country more than anyone else…” Like his speeches, none of that is true. Not even close.

He also wrote: “So, by copy of this TRUTH,” (A nonsense sentence, if ever there was one), “I am ordering my Representatives to look at the feasibility of doing an AMERICA IS BACK Rally on Wednesday, Washington, DC, same time, same location. Only Great Patriots invited — It will be a Wild and Beautiful Celebration of America!”

Oh, crap. The LAST time he promised “Will be wild!” an army of his deluded, devotion-blinded supporters attacked the United States Capitol, injuring and killing police officers, defacing the building, and threatening to capture and hang the Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence, in what they later called their “day of love.”

So now I’m left to wonder if our National Embarrassment is holding a rally or a riot. With this guy, it could go either way…

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

Here’s one from the weird file. A coach/teacher named Paige Adams (35) got “caught” having sex with an 18-year-old, a legal adult. The case is being presented as “sex with a student” and, apparently, the 18-year-old IS a “student.” But he’s not HER student. He’s not on any of her teams. Hell, he doesn’t even go to the school she worked at, Cold Springs High School.

Conservative media is trying to whip up a frenzy about it by focusing on the fact that she’s married and he’s a “student.” For her part, she has pointed out (in court) that he is a legal adult and he doesn’t go to the school she worked at and never did. She had no educational association or authority over him, so it was, basically, just two people who got caught up in an affair.

Her husband is divorcing her. I can see that. But what’s the crime? Why is she facing 30 charges? Conservative media is focused on the salacious. These two people in a consensual, legal, sexual relationship sent sexually related texts to each other. There’s a lot of focus on that. It’s a great excuse to publish some of that sex talk while pretending to be outraged by it. But I’m of the opinion that it’s common for two people in consensual, legal, sexual relationships to be sexual with each other. I’m not sure why Adams in in legal trouble…

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

So, bear this in mind. Do NOT try to use the mail to return your mail-in ballot. Conservative toady and previous Postmaster General Louis DeJoy sabotaged the mail system to slow things down. Now the Robert’s Supremely Corrupt, Kangaroo Court is considering a ruling that says states can’t count the ballot if it’s not received by election day.

Currently, if the ballot is postmarked by election day, it gets counted. But cons know they can’t win a fair and honest election so they do everything they can to make sure it’s as difficult as possible to vote. The goal is to dilute the vote by making it hard to do. Yes, it does affect some Reds, too, but more Dems use the mail-in process and cons know it, so they attack the mail-in process. In typical conservative fashion, they attack the process by lying about it. Hand carry your ballot to a drop point…

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

On the left, many are on a death watch for the lost old dotard. As far as I know, nobody is planning on doing anything to bring that about, and nothing I write here should be construed to the contrary. It’s just that by looking at what’s left of the man, we think he’s getting closer to being called home every day – and it’s a day we look forward to. And yes, I AM aware he recently had a physical and was reported to be the healthiest man in the history of healthy men. I’ve got to confess: I suspect this White House lies from time to time.

But WHEN the topic of his inglorious passing comes up, one of the first responses is, “But then we’d have JD Vance.” Uh-huh. That’s true. Do you know who else thinks Vance would be a terrible president? President Pedo, himself, if reports are to be believed. Now, to be fair, when the White House was asked about it, they issued exactly the propaganda one might expect. “Oh, no,” they claim, “The President loves Vice President Vance.”

But this all came up because of leaks from the White House that suggest otherwise. Donny doesn’t like JD any more than anybody else. I could be wrong, but I don’t think Vance is the threat 47 is. He doesn’t have the “rizz.” More, he doesn’t have the support. He’s a weirdo, and everyone knows it…

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

Just for fun, there’s a wing of conservatives out there SO obsessed with trans-sexuality, they’re starting to see transsexuals everywhere. In fact, they’re looking for transsexuals. They really want to find as many as possible. They want transsexuals badly. If they decide someone is – MUST BE – transsexual, but can’t find any evidence, they make the evidence up. It’s much easier to be “right” that way. It has gotten SO out of control on the right, there’s now a name for searching out the trans – ‘Transvestigation.’

Clever, right? They’re going to do an “investigation,” see, on who is transsexual, right? So? ‘Transvestigation.’ I mean, obvs. They very cleverly sussed out Michele Obama after a photo of her in a dress was altered to include a “bulge” where a “bulge” would indicate masculinity. Total proof, since nobody has ever heard of an altered photo before. Clever sods, they are.

And now they’ve found their latest and greatest. TWO of them, in fact. That’s how these things work. Once you know HOW to identify them, anybody you want can suddenly be transsexual. For example, quality “thinker” Candace Owens found some elementary school photos of Erika Kirk with a short haircut and wearing what looks like boy’s clothes. That’s all the evidence needed, let me tell you. Now, “he” is Erik Kirk to the transvestigators. Got him!

The other transsexual hiding in plain sight? Well, that would be Sydney Sweeney, obviously. I mean, just LOOK at those girls – I mean, that girl. She’s clearly a dude. You can tell, according to the transvestigators, because her “neck is so much wider than her head.” (I’ve done a very thorough, comprehensive review. It isn’t.) She did a short stint as a darling of the right but now that she has clearly been identified as born male, she’s dead to them.

It’s a good thing these transvestigators sussed out these to men/women now, before meeting them in person. Now these shut-in incels know better than to ever have sex with Erika Kirk or Sydney Sweeney having sussed them out as born male. Assuming, that is, they ever, EVER found themselves with the opportunity to sleep with Erika Kirk or Sydney Sweeney, that is…
