WHIPLASH

Whip.lash: injury caused by a severe jerk to the head, typically in a motor vehicle accident. jerk or jolt (someone or something) suddenly, typically so as to cause injury. Thursday, June 18, 2020, and as if the world had not already been spinning out of control, and the boundaries of reality had not already included the Twilight Zone, or The Outer Limits, news, spread as quickly as the COVID-19 Virus (you know the no longer need to discuss thingy, because Trump says so,) and from surprise to uh-huh both hit me on my head, and I swear I felt the effects of whiplash! 

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Thursday that the Trump administration cannot carry out its plan to shut down the Deferred Action for Children program, which has allowed nearly 800,000 young people, known as "Dreamers," to avoid deportation and remain in the U.S. The concurring opinion written by Chief Justice John Roberts. Albeit it was a 5 for agreement (Gorsuch, the ever-fluid Justice not a part of this act of freedom,) it passed. I cheered!

The MAGA’s are waiting in line in Tulsa, mask free, folding chair to folding chair, all delighted that Trump is coming to town. Many you MAGA’s of white privilege, announced to the camera, they are healthy and even if they have the virus, they are too healthy to pass it on. One young cocky white dude explained that there were some 300 to 365 reasons why not to be afraid written in the Bible, and who better than God to trust, a middle-aged woman, was not quite certain if statistics really meant anything but just a list of numbers, and a couple of Baby Boomers said it is all a HOAX. The Republican Mayor of Tulsa said those going were doing so at GREAT risk. I jeered!

Then we discovered that Trump does have emotion, enough so that he cried and pleaded to Xi of China, to kiss his boo-boo and buy agricultural goods, from the Red States so Trump could win an election and swore that any Concentration Camps built by China were PERFECT (kind of like the ones still in operation in America.) We did not discover but were reassured of the lack of education and intellect regarding Trump, as he was dumbfounded to discover Finland was not a part of Russia (which the way Trump is pulling away from Europe, it might well become a satellite soon,) and that Great Britain of all countries had nuclear weapons. Oh yeah and we ONCE again were reminded that murdering his enemies is always on Trump’s insidious mind, as he oftentimes wondered why he could not just shoot journalists critical of his inabilities as both a President and human. I jeered.

And oh yeah the two Atlanta cops who murdered Rayshard Brooks are due to be booked and turn themselves in by 6:00pm Atlanta time. I cheered. But more than two dozen Atlanta COPS did not show up to their jobs today out of protest (fire their asses, and let them work somewhere else, but first take away their ability to use a weapon) I jeered! WHIPLASH I say, WHIPLASH!
