Once again SAD

 This week, the Supreme Court managed to fail to meet the already extremely low expectations most sane people already had for it. First, during the Idaho EMTALA case on whether hospitals receiving federal funding can refuse to provide abortions to women who are actively dying as a result of a pregnancy, we heard debate over which, and how many, organs a woman had to lose before an abortion becomes legally acceptable. By all appearances, it looks as though the court is going to gut the already laughably weak “life of the mother” protections by a 5-4 vote. (The New Republic)

They AIN’T Pro-life, they AIN’T Pro-Democracy, they ARE Pro- Christian Nationalism, Fascism. The GOP Activist Justices, the ones owned and operated by their Federalist Society, the ones who have lavish gifts of money, trips, and real estate provided to them, prefer hyperbole and hypocrisy, contradiction, and inconstancy over law, order, and justice.

 

And now these same Con Artists are actually going to decide if TRUMP can become an AUTOCRAT, A KING, A DICTATOR, and a ROYAL.

 

And for me, here is the kicker: three of these “shysters” were first nominated to their lifetime tenure by a guy who DID NOT WIN THE POPULAR VOTE, actually LOSING THE POPULAR VOTE BY MILLIONS OF VOTES. So the guy who the majority of Americans did not WANT as THEIR PRESIDENT was able to set up one more Con for the American Public.

 

And now, it looks like these same group of grifters, like Thomas and Alito, these same group of liars like Gorsuch, Barrett, and Kavanaugh, and this same Chief Justice more concerned with his power than the true power of justice, Roberts, are going to ignore the foundations of our Constitution, to appease their wealthy, wealthy owners and operators! Fucking SAD!

UNBELIEVABLE

 With global attention focused on Iran’s escalating conflict with Israel, Tehran has intensified its domestic crackdown on women, giving police expanded powers to enforce conservative dress codes. (Washington Post)

How Close to Death Must a Person Be to Get an Abortion? (New York)

Iran, the United States, one, Iran is officially a Theocratic Fascist Government, the other, the United States is aiming to become a Theocratic Fascist Government. Both nations enjoy placing women as nothing more than chattel, breeders, and less than people. The only difference is that one nation is using Mohamad as their scapegoat, and the other nation is using Jesus as their scapegoat. 

 

It was maybe the most memorable moment so far in Donald Trump's case for "absolute presidential immunity" -- and it could come up again at the U.S. Supreme Court in historic arguments on Thursday. The arresting question: Could a commander in chief order SEAL Team 6 to assassinate a political rival and not face criminal prosecution?

These voters in key state aren't sure about Biden or Trump. (CNN)

TRUMP has stated very clearly his intentions to reshape America into some kind of Dystopian wasteland, a North Korea of North America, perhaps. The fact regarding TRUMP’s intentional fraud, his disrespect for women, his constant lying have almost smothered any remaining oxygen of our current American life. But yet, there are citizens of this nation who are undecided about the November election. HOW!

 

Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., went after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Tuesday, saying that Greene was a threat to the Republican Party and was "dragging our brand down." (NBC News)

“Taking our brand down,” says Republican Senator Tillis really Senator, suddenly you assume that Margie-Putin-Greene is the cause for the shitty stench of the Republican Party. Overturning Roe, “don’t say Gay,” not taxing the wealthy, trying to end Social Security, trying to stop any measure of climate control, fighting Unions, those, just as starters, are what your GOP Brand is all about. Come on Tommy boy are you now trying to OUTSTUPID Tuberville as the dumbest ass Republican Senator!

Exactly WHOSE Life

 The Supreme Court appeared split Wednesday in a case over whether a federal law requiring hospitals to provide appropriate stabilizing medical treatment for patients could in some cases overrule a state’s abortion ban — a question with tremendous implications for pregnant patients’ ability to access emergency health care. The case, Idaho v. United States, concerns enforcement of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, known as EMTALA, in instances when it could conflict with individual state abortion bans. (the 19^th) 

When Christian Sharia Laws become the standard law in the United States, we ALL should shudder at the prospect that a bunch of bigots and bogus bullshitters will impose their self-perceived morals and judgments on ALL of us. They may identify as being Pro-Life, they may pretend to actually care about the lives of the many, but reality has provided ALL of us with the just the opposite. 

 

Once again, the Activists of the Far-Right Supremes, appointed by Republican Presidents, have demonstrated their attempt to play Physician and, of course, a Christian God. It seems in modern-day America, the Holy Trinity is God the Father, Jesus, and the Supremes!  With the insistence of their Republican Apostles, consisting of the Gerrymandered Republican State Legislatures, to make America a Christian Nation, we have witnessed a very scary bit of HYPOCRICY regarding the hue and cry of being “PRO-LIFE!”

 

If you ain’t a Zygote or a Fetus, the Republican Legislators and the Right-Wing Republican Activist Judges are NOT PRO YOUR LIFE. It seems that women are nothing more than carriers for the Fetus. Women have no rights to their reproductive lady parts, and the health and welfare of women only matter because they have wombs!

 

Chattel, yep, like livestock, property, bank accounts, and cars, women are to be owned and operated at the convenience of MYSOGINISTS, and even worse, Female MYSONGINISTS. 

 

 

Amazing AIN'T it

 For the first time in five months, NASA engineers have received decipherable data from Voyager 1 after crafting a creative solution to fix a communication problem aboard humanity’s most distant spacecraft in the cosmos. (CNN)

And YET, here on Earth, the wait time for most to many CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES can take hours, and hours and hours.  Technology can be a very important component in helping to accomplish things, except when it seems Earthbound, technology seems more interested in avoiding getting anything accomplished. Amazing AIN’T it!

 

Some one in four Democrats aren't planning to vote for Joe Biden in this year's presidential election, a poll has shown. (NEWSWEEK)

And YET, pretending that not voting for Biden this year, in particular, is somehow a righteous stance, assuming (and we all know to assume is to make an ASS out o of U and ME) that by NOT voting for Biden you are standing your ground or is it rather you are preparing the groundwork for TRUMP to become King, and as King remove you from voting for anyone else in the future. Is it selfishness? Is it ignorance? Are those who will not vote for Biden this year, just walking around with their heads up their own asses? Amazing AIN’T it!

 

Fox News, another arm of the Murdoch media empire, had already taken aim at the Georgia Republican last week, with columnist Liz Peek calling her an “idiot” and saying she needs to “turn all that bombastic self-serving showmanship and drama queen energy on Democrats.” (The New Republic)

And YET, the Republicans and their anarchist loving donors like the Murdoch’s only seem to worry what kind of harm Putin loving peasants like Margie Greene, and her cadre of Moscow loving Freedom Caucus clowns are doing against the Republican Party. None of these enemies of the state have uttered word one regarding the war on Democracy, Liberty and Freedom and how destructive these Republican MAGA’s actions have weakened this nation. Amazing AIN’T it!

 

 

 

Some headlines.

 Some headlines, some more bull shit, some things which cannot be unseen or un heard or un read!

No balls and no backbone! One more sad sack, Senator, spineless, soulless, and just MAYBE afraid of some videotapes…

Lindsey Graham crediting Trump for Ukraine aid passing raises eyebrows. (Newsweek)

 

To whose surprise is this a surprise? One more Oh My God, is this happening headline, when in fact, a headline like this is yesterday’s news, and like yesterday’s news seems to be immediately forgotten. But wait there is always tomorrow, or not!

Why this summer may be especially hot in the United States. (The Washington Post)

 

“But you are Blanche, but you are.” But you are TRUMP, sad, old, disgusting, obnoxious, a sad sack piece of shit sitting in the toilet of a very old gas station on Route 66. Adderall, Orange Dye, perhaps even your daily dose or white powdery stuff, is to no avail, TRUMP!

Defendant Trump Is Not Helping Candidate Trump. The former president came off looking sad, old, and tired during his criminal trial—and it’s only just getting started.

 

So now you might a criminal if you are homeless, BUT there is seemingly no CRIME when it is society who aids and abets your homelessness.

Supreme Court divided on homelessness case that will affect California encampment policy. California cities are looking to the Supreme Court to win more authority to restrict homeless encampments. (Los Angeles Times)

 

“Don’t cry for me Argentina.” She is, if anything, a grifter, a load of nothingness, eager to become as much a fraudster as her cheating and lying husband. She is a great con artist, however, with her anchor baby, her anchor parents, and her ability to out snake oil the once proud king of snake oil, TRUMP.

Matter of FACT

 About 600,000 people are homeless in the United States, with about 256,000 living outside on any given night, according to federal counts. “Punishing the victims of our failed housing policies will not solve homelessness. It will make it worse. It will increase the number of people unable to get inside.” (OREGONLIVE.com)

Maybe the quote, “There but for the grace of God go I,” is appropriate when considering the conditions of being with a permanent home, not living on the streets. Maybe the quote, “any place I hang my hat is home.,” sounds romantic, kind of adventurous, until you start hanging your hat on the top of a trash container. Maybe as we all sleep in our beds, in the same place each night, be it a mansion or a studio apartment, we could become arrogant enough to say things like, “if they wanted something better, they would find it.” Maybe as we purchase our second or third home, purchase a property to “flip it,” we are so annoyed at the time and effort it now takes to renovate a home, add on to our homes we have no time to consider anyone else but ourselves. Maybe when the local news outlet pretends to run one of their “from our hearts and conscience” segments and the coiffed, well-dressed reporters, often times wearing their-so called “street clothes,” you know the $200 jeans, the log- laden winter jacket, and their $300 sneakers, interview some people living on the street a drug addict, a person looking dirtier than the rest, some of those folks do say, they like it better on the streets, and as they say things like that, we become safely pompous and say, “nothing I can do about it, if that is what they want.”

 

Is it Socialism to desire all people to have a modicum of shelter, nutrition, health care, and both the physical and mental care? Is it Capitalism to even think that if people don’t pull themselves from their own bootstraps, they should pay the consequences, even if they don’t have the wherewithal to first purchase those boots to strap up? Is it now the new American Populism to suggest that “we vs they,” is a healthy way to grow or just die?

 

About 600,000 people are homeless in the United States, with about 256,000 living outside on any given night. Facts may not matter to the Politicians, to their wealthy donors, their wealthy owners and operators. When it is fact of life to be homeless, but that fact has not affected your way of life, does that fact matter?

 

 

ACTUALLY, no

 Republicans erupt into open warfare over Ukraine aid package vote. (The Guardian)

ACTUALLY, who is surprised by the Republican’s actions against Ukraine…they hate democracy, they loathe a free nation…they have demonstrated the same disgust against American democracy and freedom!

 

For the first time, U.S. may force polluters to clean up these ‘forever chemicals’ (The Washington Post)

ACTUALLY, Who bets that this will happen in our lifetime, or the lifetime of all of us who have been inhaling or absorbing these chemicals? I, how long did it take the tobacco companies to stop producing cigarettes…um, never…how long has it taken the oil Cartels to clean up their acts, um, never, and how long has it taken for the Weapons cartel to stop manufacturing weapons of war used by anyone but the military!

 

Conservatives Suddenly Realize Tucker Carlson Is a Lying Russia Dupe. (New York)

ACTUALLY, have they now? Actually, these same Conservatives still embrace Putin’s Puppet, TRUMP. They permit Margie-Putin-Greene to act as House Speaker. They support no aid to Ukraine. Tucker-Putin-Carlson is just like the majority of current Republican Conservatives.

 

Nobel laureate Esther Duflo proposes taxing 3,000 billionaires to protect the world’s poorest from climate change—and most Americans likely agree with the plan. (Fortune)

ACTUALLY, until these 3,000 or so billionaires no longer can buy, own, or operate every Politician in America and the parts of the world supposedly run by Democracy, and until many of those billionaires are not self-anointed Kings, Royals, Authoritarians, in charge of how things happen, this AIN’T gonna go anywhere, even, as the headline reads and most Americans agree with the idea!

 

How tiresome it is and how insulting it is to read articles like these, which pretend that somehow change is possible, when ACTUALLY reality has said “NO!”
