Just how low

 HOW LOW CAN YOU GO!

Within the current Republican Party, the answer remains AS LOW AS KING DONALD DESIRES.

 

Former Trump White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin on Monday likened the competition to become Donald Trump’s running mate to the reality business TV show that raised his profile. “The veepstakes right now feel like ‘The Apprentice’ but to prove just how unprincipled and willing to grovel you are,” Griffin said on Monday’s episode of ABC’s “The View,” which she co-hosts. Griffin’s damning summary came amid a discussion on the various ways in which Trump’s potential picks have in recent weeks debased themselves to curry favor with the presumptive GOP nominee ― from South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem’s dog-killing admission to Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-S.C.) refusal to say if he’ll accept the 2024 election result. (HUFFPOST)

 

Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio downplayed the violence of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, telling CNN that he was “extremely skeptical that Mike Pence’s life was ever in danger.” Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida showcased his willingness to defend hush money for porn stars by calling on New York jurors to acquit Trump of the charges against him. “This is a trash case; there is no crime here,” he declared on Newsmax, Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York showcased her intense thirst for Trump’s nod by echoing his claim that Jan. 6 rioters are “hostages.” Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama apparently thought her fundie baby voice/angry mom bit would appeal to the former president’s idea of what someone from veep central casting would look and sound like. (MSNBC)

 

For my BLOG, today, I had it quite easy. I did not have to pontificate, preach, or add snark, or sarcasm. I did not have to do anything but showcase the words and deeds of a bunch of EMPTY, SELF-SERVING, PATHETIC MINIONS who have little problems in losing their genitals and backbones to become nothing but accomplices in the destruction of America. BUT what should trouble those of us who want Democracy to survive… IS the fact that these Buffoons could be the second person in line to become President!

 

 

Much Ado

 The phrase 'Much Ado about Nothing' is used when someone is overreacting and makes a big deal of fuss over something unimportant. (Collins Dictionary) 

And so, Moscow Margie, was given free reign, by, “it’s all about me, and my personal gains,” Kevin McCarthy, as Kevin was willing and able, and available to make any deal with the Devil, which permitted him to attain more and more power. Kevin, placing personal privileges above the people, prioritizing his own selfish interests, beyond and form of reasonable or rational governance, permitted Moscow Margie, to rape and pillage our Democracy. And with Kevin’s approval, Moscow Margie, took advantage of her newly found status as the GURU of the GOP, and she managed to threaten, blackmail, and eliminate any all of her perceived or planned enemies. Moscow Margie’s power surged, and she recognized, her super powers and put them to total evil use. And now, the same clowns who approved of her disgusting behavior are suddenly perplexed. Moscow Margie, overreacted, made big deals out of nothingness, made “much ado about nothing, and NOW it seems there is nothing the Republicans can do to stop her.

 

Chris Christie, yearning to remain relevant, acting bold, brassy, and belligerent as ever, decided that he needed a new con. Being a conniving scoundrel, a very good purveyor of snake oil, Chris Christie, informed the citizens of the US of A, that he was NOT going to take TRUMP’S bull shit anymore, and that he, Chris Christie, would be the VOICE of sensible Republicans. Christie gained his 15 minutes plus of fame, as he made the rounds on MSNBC, and CNN, playing his usual role of “I do not give a shit,” crusader.  Main Street absorbed his Bull Shit, like a sponge, actually complementing Christie, for having the “balls”, and “backbone,” to let TRUMP know just what a farcical character he was. UNTIL the fluff and ruffles fell off of Christie, and he, like almost every other Republican POLITICIAN, decide that conscience, dignity, and morals will get them nowhere within the current Republican voters.  Christie was just one more charade in the comedy of errors called ‘Much Ado About Nothing!’

 

How much nothingness, and the nothingness people must we continue to permit to con us? 

MONSTER makers

 “It seems to be a WHOLE lot easier to create a monster than to destroy a monster.” Gerry Buncher, circa USA 2024!

 

 “Deny, deny, deny,” said Hope Hicks. For goodness sake, by all means ,  if the bad guy did and does bad things to everyone else, then by ALL means, ignore his evil and pretend, instead, it is a virtuous act. Her mentor, her idol, so what the fuck did it matter that HE was a shameful creature, minus morals or values, just as long as HE made Hope Hicks’s’ life wonderful. Sorry, Hope, you had the opportunity, way before it was too late, to actually stop this MONSTER from terrorizing our world.

 

In advance of his congressional testimony, Trump’s personal lawyer wants the world to know that his loyalty to the president is deep and unwavering, and then some. “I’d never walk away,” he says. (Vanity Fair) Mikey Cohen is, ready able, available amenable, and anxious to keep his Mob Boss Idol in power. Keep the monster fed, keep the monster alive, keep the monster continuing to destroy, until YOU become the next victim. Sad sack Mikey Cohen somehow thought that the vile, and venom of TRUMP was never going to darken HIS own doorstep. Stomp upon, stamp out, incinerate anyone and everyone, and be okay with it, until YOU are victimized.

 

Sex tapes! Celebrity rehab! Trump hush-money trial goes full National Enquirer as Hulk Hogan, Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen are name-dropped. (Business Insider) Keith Davidson is a lawyer with a mission, the mission is to blackmail folks, or is the kinder gentler word, to assist folks who have been accused of naughty, naughty sexual kind of acts, by suggesting certain sums of money to NOT have their famous persona’s sullied. So why wouldn’t Mikey Cohen on behalf of TRUMP see out Davidson’s firm. But now, Keith Davidson, who was willing to take TRUMPS money, pretends he has a conscience, a guilty one.

 

Let me be clear, I am glad these three have decided to tell the truth, but IMAGINE, if way back when, WHEN that truth should have been told, how NOW, we might have been minus the MONSTER TRUMP!

"bless her heart"

 House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) repeatedly uttered “bless her heart” at the mention of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) in a new interview shared Wednesday. But he likely wasn’t being a Southern gentleman in the face of her loud campaign to have him axed from his post. The term is often used in the South as a condescending diss that’s delivered like honey. It can even go so far as to say someone is pathetic. (HUFFPOST)

Marjorie Taylor Greene circulates a vile post about a 10-year-old transgender girl’s future orgasms. “In ten years, he’ll be anorgasmia 20 years old with a wound called a neovagina with no chance of having his own family.” Anorgasmia is a sexual dysfunction that means people struggle to achieve orgasm despite sexual stimulation.” (PINK News)

 

Margie-Taylor-Greene’s now ex-husband pulled the trigger on the marriage after media reports revealed that the neophyte politician had repeatedly cheated with other men, including polyamorous tantric sex guru Craig Ivey and the manager of the local gym she frequented. Meanwhile, Marjorie Taylor Greene appears to have a new main squeeze in the form of right-wing radio host Brian Glenn. The pair have been spotted all over Rome, Georgia. Toronto Sun)

 

WHERE THE FUCK TO BEGIN… I suppose Margie-Putin-Greene, an expert on most nothing of importance or relevance regarding freedoms, liberties, and democracy, does, HOWEVER, seem to be a “MAVEN” on female orgasms, demonstrated as in the variety of men she has had them with, some, not her husband, while married to him, and one, who, after just a few weeks of no longer being and adulteress. Like way too many other Christian Fascist Republicans, Margie-Putin-Greene, is so enthralled, so absorbed, so interested in the genitals of the LGBT community, as to wonder out loud and worry out loud regarding their man and lady parts. (One might consider this overt interest in children’s bodies as a form of Pedophilia) .

 

As Speaker Mike Johnson (one who also seems to be overly concerned with his son’s interested in pornography) stated, “bless her heart”!

 

 

 

I AM, curious

 The southeastern United States is forecast to get struck by a heatwave next week which could see temperatures reach highs of 120 degrees, enough to start melting the asphalt in roads, in small areas of southern Texas according to one report. (NEWSWEEK)

I am curious, seriously, curious…if the effects of climate change actually affect the Red States, does that SUDDENLY, ACTUALLY, make climate change real? 

 

Three years later, many Americans see Trump through rose tinted glasses. (CNN)

I am curious, seriously, curious…is TRUMP the true Enemy of the State, or in reality, has TRUMP just permitted the Racists, Bigots, Homophobes Transphobes, Xenophobes, Misogynists, Anti-Semites, and Fascists to indulge in their ignorance and their hate, finally safely!

 

Arkansas, Missouri, and Texas all have laws that mandate women seeking a divorce to disclose if they are pregnant, and prohibit judges from finalizing the divorce if they are. No such law exists in Arizona, but judges in practice still will not finalize the divorce of a pregnant woman, according to the American Pregnancy Association. (Advocate)  

I am curious, seriously, curious…who are the Republicans and or MAGA Females who still vote Republican, who still support the Republican politicians, who pretend that eve, as females, making females CHATTE, is A-OKAY!

 

I am curious, how and why, while we know truths, the lies still remain. I am curious, how so many people still refuse to admit the facts, preferring instead the fiction. I am curious, seriously curious why in the world how STUPID, exists!

IT ain't a SIDESHOW

 WHEN THE SIDESHOW BECOMES THE MAIN EVENT 

Republicans, Democrats, and Donald Trump Agree on One Thing: Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Move to Oust Mike Johnson Is a Dumb Idea. “She is about to realize her inevitable irrelevance.” (Vanity Fair)

Irrelevant…excuse me, as an American citizen, so far Margie-Putin-Greene’s every word, misdeed, slur, and crass action has taken center stage within the House of Representatives, and I so far have NOT witnessed ANYONE from telling her she is IRRELEVANT. In FACT, it seems she dominates Republican Politics.

 

Donald Trump suggested he may not accept the results of the 2024 election in the key swing state of Wisconsin in an interview with the state’s largest newspaper, where he also falsely claimed he won the state in 2020. "If everything's honest, I'll gladly accept the results. I don't change on that," Trump told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday when he was in the state for a rally. "If it's not, you have to fight for the right of the country." (POLITICO)

More brazen than when he ran for the Presidency in 2020 and actually more honest (honesty and TRUMP in the same sentence can cause seizures), TRUMP is NOW saying out loud exactly how he will handle his losses in 2024. He and only he IS the one who can decide honest from dishonest. Be afraid, folks, because even if this DESPOT is spouting off at a local rally in Wisconsin now, it will only become worse later.

 

"If the Russians were to break through the front lines, if there were a Ukrainian request—which is not the case today—we would legitimately have to ask ourselves this question," Macron told The Economist in an interview published on Thursday, referring to the possibility of sending ground troops.

Although Ukraine's supporters are supplying billions of dollars in military aid to Kyiv, have balked at the idea of sending troops, a move that could draw NATO more directly into a confrontation with Russia. (NEWSWEEK)

Once again, we witness the let’s wait and see what happens, mixed with the dubious facts that we know what will happen, but if we pretend it won’t happen, then we won’t have to do anything about it…of course, until it is too late. It is as if the cowardly leaders of the nations in NATO, have perfectly forgotten the lessons of WWII> Appeasement is a diplomatic strategy. It involves making concessions to an aggressive foreign power in order to avoid war. It is most commonly associated with British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, in office from 1937 to 1940. In the 1930s, the British government pursued a policy of appeasement towards Nazi Germany. Today, appeasement is usually regarded as a failure because it did not prevent World War II.

 

 

 

MORE RELEVANT NEWS

 THE GOOD NEWS…

The Arizona Legislature on Wednesday left 19th-century abortion policy behind with a Senate vote to repeal a 160-year-old law.

Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs' signature is all but assured for the repeal bill, which passed the Senate 16-14 with the help of two Republicans from swing districts. (azcentral.

THE MORE RELEVANT NEWS…

With the help of two Republicans from swing districts, this abhorrent abortion bill was passed because TWO Republicans understood that for them to keep their political power, they ACTUALLY listen to all of their constituents. This is relative because when any district IS NOT GERRYMANDERED, then it is the will of the people that matters, not the will of the Billionaire Donors.  

 

THE GOOD NEWS…

Supreme Court Puppet Master's Consulting Firm Clients Exposed in Leak. Leonard Leo’s consulting firm has worked for Eli Lilly, the Koch network, and a dark-money group pushing the Supreme Court to block a billionaire tax. (RollingStone)

THE MORE RELEVANT NEWS…

Once a light is lit, and the dark gloom of intentional secrecy is exposed, just like cockroaches, those who have infected our Democratic ways of justice and equality, become fearful and try not to be caught. And interestingly enough, if these Dark Money ,self-serving enemies of the state are so cocky while living in the shadows, why are they not so eager to be found out!

 

The Good News is that truth and justice, equality and fairness have found a triumph. The more Relevant News, for me, is that when THE TRUTH is exposed, and the FRAUD is discovered, democracy survives one day more!

 

 

 

 

 

Too many people voted for them

 Days after it was revealed that her new book includes a graphic account of her killing a pet dog (and goat), South Dakota governor Kristi Noem has doubled down on having committed pooch-icide, claiming the story is evidence that she’s an “authentic” leader. (Vanity Fair)

 

An “authentic” leader!” If you decide to kill living things, innocent living things, somehow that sociopathic trait makes you not just a leader but AN AUTHENTIC LEADER! I must wonder what is next for this TRUMP/MAGA/NRA-loving turd that comes next if she succeeds in becoming a VP…are PEOPLE who seem unruly or untrainable next to be shot. Hitler murdered 35.2 million people, Genghis Khan murdered 40 million people, Joseph Stalin murdered 48 million people, Mao Zedong murdered 65 million people ,and THEY wanted the world to know that by doing so, THEY were AUTHENTIC LEADERS!

 

A Jan. 6 participant who livestreamed his invasion of the U.S. Capitol and pleaded guilty to felony civil disorder told CNN Monday that he “did nothing wrong” on “the most patriotic day” of his life. Derrick Evans also said, “There’s no separation of church and state. That’s another lie that’s been portrayed by the left.” What makes the latter statement so noteworthy is that Evans is now running for the U.S. House of Representatives in West Virginia after being forced to resign from the state’s House of Delegates following the attempted coup. (HUFFPOST)

 

One more self-anointed leader. One more greater than thou, eager to lie, act ignorant, and deny any law or order that he feels doesn’t work for him. One more illusionist, displaying his look over there voodoo, all the while corrosive and rotten, moldy and full of mildew, sucking the oxygen out of our democracy.

 

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) filed an ethics complaint against special counsel Jack Smith on Tuesday, accusing the prosecutor overseeing the federal investigations into former President Trump of trying to “unlawfully interfere with the 2024 presidential election.” 

“Smith’s conduct has brought disrepute to the Department of Justice and the entire federal government, and the … Office of Professional Responsibility should impose the discipline that such conduct warrants,” Stefanik said in her statement. (The Hill)

 

Without one ounce of embarrassment, self-awareness, minus any or all facts that don’t fit into her narrative, this THING, continues to hype her hypocrisy. Somehow if Trump tried to create false electors, attempted a coup, had his ATTORNEY GENERALS Sessions, and Barr, act as his private attorneys, to defraud the election of 2020, none of that falls into the category of fucking over the United States. I might ask does she have no shame…BUT SHE DOESN’T.

 

AND THE REAL KICKER, IS THAT THESE PEOPLE WOULD BE NO WHERE…NO WHERE, if not for some American voters who share the same IGNORANCE! 

 

When!!!

 I write this BLOG, perhaps with great SNARK, in a RHETORICAL demeanor, or maybe, perhaps, in complete EARNEST. And as I write this BLOG, I am full of angst, a churning belly of anxiety, and a whole lot of anger.

When, in our human history did we stop learning some really important lessons about life, SHOULD NEVER BE IGNORED????? If we ever touched a hot stove, a hot pan, placed our fingers on a sharp blade…when we drank one too many shots of alcohol, when we tried to jump over a mail box…whenever we acted out of sheer stupidity and resulted in great pain and harm…USUALLY, we learned lessons on HOW NOT TO DO THAT AGAIN! As parents or older siblings, or even friends, we provide great details on the pitfalls of being foolish, on the harmful effects of cockiness, of the horrors of injury, both physically and mentally.

 

And yet, in America of 2024, it seems lessons of self-destruction, doom, and stupidity are ignored or, worse, purposely forgotten.

 

We learned that Presidents are fallible when NIXON showcased his distaste for the law. We knew then that no President should ever be above the law, and YET now, we hear the Supreme Court pontificate that somehow having a President above the law is a means to save Democracy. April 12, 1861, we learned that pretending that somehow states rights should usurp the rights and freedoms of any citizen of the United States, as in slavery being a state's right. We fought a bloody Civil War trying to correct this misleading notion, and YET here we are once again insisting that states have the right to discriminate against American citizens, be they females, Trans People, or LBG people. We fought a world war, understanding that Fascism, Authoritarianism, and Dictatorship are true enemies of the state and that any person seeking to become kind of a KING is dangerous to our FREEDOM.

 

When, WHEN, I ask and beg, and PLEAD, did so many of us decide that history ignored is no big deal? 

Ms. Lindsey, once again

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., on Sunday argued that Americans will not cast their ballots this fall based on Donald Trump's criminal charges as the former president faces an unprecedented trial in New York. On CNN’s "State of the Union," Graham railed against the indictments against the former president, claiming that most Americans are less concerned about Trump's four separate criminal cases at the state and federal level than the challenges facing the nation as a whole. (USA Today)

Let’s put aside, for the moment at least, Ms. Lindsey’s constant wearing of her T-shirt, “I Am With Stupid,” or her continuous worry about Putin’s secret and probably most alarming videotape of Ms. Lindsey, actually performing as MS. LINDSEY.  Let us realize that this spinless, testicle-less Trump eunuch can never wander too far off his leash, fear of TRUMP RETRIBUTION, and listen to his words. 

 

I do agree, sadly so, that a large minority of Americans will decide that economics should be prioritized over something as amorphous for them as Democracy. I compare it to Climate Change for these same demographics; as long as they can breathe fresh air today, way too many of them don’t give much of a shit about breathing fresh air tomorrow. As long as they think democracy will last forever, way too many refuse even to consider,, that in a TRUMP second term on day one, that too will DISAPPEAR. 

 

But here is where I beg all those well-paid “Democrat Talking Heads” to try and actually earn their money; by informing and educating, CONSTANTLY, this group of heads up their own asses, selfish folk to begin to grasp a better factual present, and future. Begin in simplistic terms to let these FOLKS know whose taxes had been lowered by TRUMP (THE UBER WEALTHY). Who helped spearhead the demise of Roe V Wade, TRUMP. Who had helped Corporations to keep their profits HIGH while keeping prices HIGHER, TRUMP.

 

Ms. Lindsey is nothing but a sycophant, a 21^st-century fraud, but Ms. Lindsey knows that fraud can work!

His Harlots

 His HAREM OF HARLOT HERETICS…

Governor Kristi Noem

One of Donald Trump’s top vice-presidential prospects has revealed she killed a family dog on a hunting trip.

In a forthcoming memoir, Kristi Noem, the South Dakota governor, wrote how she threw Cricket, a 14-month-old female wirehaired pointer, into a gravel pit and executed it with a gun after concluding the dog was “untrainable”. Noem cited the killing of the pet dog as an example of her readiness to take on unpleasant tasks in the polarised world of US politics in her book No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward.

“I hated that dog,” she wrote. “It was not a pleasant job but it had to be done. And after it was over, I realised another unpleasant job needed to be done.”

Noem said she then shot her “disgusting, musky, rancid” pet goat in the same gravel pit. (The Times/The Sunday Times)

 

KRISTI will remove any and all perceived trash from the face of her EARTH. She will raise her rifle and, as judge and executioner, be a FORCE to be reckoned with. KRISTI brags about “her readiness to take on unpleasant tasks,” and if that means murder, by GOD, I suppose by her interpretation of GOD, she will find a gravel pit and blow out the brains of the useless. And KRISTI is one of TRUMPS GAL PALS!

 

Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders)

Umm. David Pecker testifies that he had a joint call with Hope Hicks and Sarah Huckabee Sanders — taxpayer funded WH officials, at the time — about whether Karen McDougal’s contract should be extended. "Both of them said that they thought it was a good idea," Pecker said. (Queerty) David Pecker Testifies He Spoke With Sarah Sanders and Hope Hicks About Extending Hush Money Payments After Trump Was Elected. (MEDIAite)

 

SARAH will declare that Gays are bad, Trans people worse, and that Banned books will make education better and more prudent. And SARA will, of course, support the bribes to keep an adulterer free to cheat on his wife. For SARAH, hypocrisy is her celebration of her Christianity.

 

Just two more females willing and able to forget morals and values, just to keep their own positions of power in place!

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.

“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.

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!”  

BACK IN THE DAY

 Remember, BACK IN THE DAY, when adults who perseverated over kids' and teens’ genitalia, we would call them PERVERTS, or when they hung around restrooms, how we would identify them as CHILD MOLESTERS… now we just refer to them as Evangelical Republicans or Republican Politicians. 

Remember, BACK IN THE DAY, when men other than your Gynecologists or your husband talked about Lady's Reproductive parts, or their Periods, or their Pregnancies, we would call them sad sack sickos, sexual predators…now we just refer to them as Republican Right Wing, FOX Entertainment Hosts, or Republicans.

 

Remember, BACK IN THE DAY, when the Republicans, under the pretense of Senator Joe McCarthy, pretended to be concerned about spies, Communists, and traitors? Remember, BACK IN THE DAY when we fought a war against Fascists, Dictators, chastised Americans who tried in earnest to lie to our Troops in Japan, calling those women either Tokyo Rose or Axis Sally…now we refer to them as Margie-Putin-Greene, BOEBERT, Gym Jordan, James Comer, MUSK, or Hannity, Jesse Waters, Laura Ingraham, Tucker Putin or Republicans.

 

Remember, BACK IN THE DAY, when Fraudsters, Rapists, and those who hired goons to pillage, threaten, intimidated, and used thuggery went by names like Bugsy Siegel, Al Capone, Carlo Gambino, John Gotti, or Mobsters, Public Enemy Number One…now we refer to them as TRUMP, Bannon, Manafort, Roger Stone, or Republicans.

 

BACK IN THE DAY is not always the place to go, but somehow, be it the Activist's Conservative Judges, the Gerrymandered Congress, American Christian Nationalists on school boards, or the MURDOCH Family and their hired Putin-loving Propagandists, it seems we are BACK IN THE DAY in regard to nefarious actions on their behalf. I say if we are going BACK IN THE DAY, we administer the kind of real justice rendered then!

How and WHY!

 While Merchan said that “the press can write about anything the attorney and the courts discuss,” he advised reporters to use “common sense” when discussing jurors: “There’s a reason why this is an anonymous jury and we’ve taken the measures we have taken. It kind of defeats the purpose of that when so much information is put out there.” (New York)

He sent them to burn down the Capitol, hang Mike Pence, and hog-tie Congress People. He stood by way too long as this madness unfolded, and he refused to stop the attempted Coup until actual mayhem murder took place. As might a Mob Boss facing trial, he has his regular army of Lieutenants, or maybe they are Brown Shirts or just Red Hats, or just THUGS harassing, bullying, and threatening anyone he DEEMS as the enemy, SO, PLEASE explain to me how this Judge can even permit any IOTA of identification being APPROPRIATE to be shared by the Press.

 

One more charade, one more contemptuous cat, one more attempted crime with no perceived consequence, one more demonstration of this man being treated as if he and only he can remain above the law, dictate the law, and ignore the law. 

No shame

 THE PATHETIC PRETENSE OF PRETENDING… 

House Republicans Mocked For Marching To Senate With Mayorkas Impeachment Articles A group of GOP representatives marched to the Senate on Tuesday to deliver articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. (HUFFPOST)

 

This same group of Putin-loving/Insurrectionist complying/Democracy loathing, mostly gerrymandered marauders of malignant malevolence, hoping and praying, wishing and hoping to win endorsement from the wannabe Dictator TRUMP, have once again demonstrated their desire to place their own politicism over the truth and honor. No surprise from these MAGA politicians, but just more hypocrisy spread all over like projectile vomit or a tsunami of diarrhea! 

 

PERFORMING PRETENSE AND LACK OF PURPOSE…

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., tried to aside Schumer's motion that the first article of impeachment against Mayorkas is unconstitutional.

"Our colleagues know that we are obligated to take these proceedings seriously," McConnell said. "This is what our oath prescribes. It is what the history and precedent require and I would urge each of our colleagues to consider that this is what our framers actually envisioned." McConnell added, "This process must not be abused, it must not be short circuited. History will not judge this moment well." (ABC News)

 

The Crypt Keeper Mitch McConnell is not one to miss a beat in the art of selling Snake Oil, the perfection of the Con, and the desire to be the most perfect  HYPOCRITE in history. Having no shame in pretending his past, filled with cowardly actions, transgressions against our Constitution, and dereliction of duty to anyone but his wealthy donors who own and operate him, McConnell finds the Americans as nothing but fools. Like TRUMP holding onto a Bible, having Mitch pretending that the American Constitution has relevance in anything Mitch says or does is just plain BLASPAHMY! 

 

 

Limiting terms

 The debate over terms limits involves competing concepts. Supporters believe the mandatory changing of elected representatives in Congress would better represent the electorate, while opponents think that experienced representatives would make better policy decisions and reduce the influence of lobbyists over inexperienced officials. (consitutioncenter.org)

BULL CRAP, actually BULL SHIT. Opponents of term limits for members of Congress, somehow, still living in some kind of UN-REAL world, believe that better policy decisions COULD or WOULD be made, somehow because those in power longer actually believe in what is better for the people than what IS much better for their own personal lives. Mitch ( The Death Reaper) McConnell, now a multimillionaire, actually places people before his own good? Ms. Lindsey Graham places the well-being of Americans over her desire to keep Putin Tapes of her private life private, most likely? Marco Rubio, has any idea of what makes America great, other than what about America can make him greater?

 

Franklin D. Roosevelt would die on April 12, 1945, just 82 days after his fourth inauguration. Vice President Harry Truman succeeded him. In the 1946 midterm elections, Republicans would take control of both the House and the Senate. FDR’s long tenure as president had led to questions of presidential tyranny. And many of the new congressmen supported an amendment that would limit presidential terms. When the 80th Congress convened in January of 1947, the issue was given top priority. (npr)

 

Way back then, the Republicans feigned fright that the Democrat President would somehow create a form of Presidential tyranny when actually they, once again, were more concerned about their inability to promote a President who cared more about the people than the wealthy. NOW, the Republican Party has no problem supporting a candidate who hates democracy, loathes justice and liberty, and who has made it clear that if elected, he indeed will bring TYRANNY to America!

 

 

Profiles in Cowardice

 AMERICAN PROFILES OF COWARDACE…

Mike Johnson signals he won't put Senate supplemental on the floor despite increased pressure…under pressure from GOP hard-liners who have warned him that tying Ukraine aid to the bill could prove detrimental to his speakership, Johnson has yet to address aid to the war-torn country months later. (NBC News)

No surprise, nope, sadly Mike (Yes Master Trump, whatever you require I will do for you), Johnson is once again demonstrating the Republican Malaise of “what’s in it for me, and fuck anyone else. TRUMP, the disease, is alive and well, living inside the gutless and spineless Mike (but I am a Christian) Johnson.

 

Sununu joined ABC’s This Week on Sunday, where moderator George Stephanopoulos pressed the governor on his about-face in supporting the twice-impeached former president. He noted how Sununu, who endorsed Nikki Haley in the primaries, said in January 2021 that Trump’s rhetoric and actions led to the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection and asked him how he could continue to support Trump despite that.

“For me, it’s not about him as much as it is having a Republican administration, Republican secretaries, Republican rules, a sense where states’ rights come first, individual rights come first, and we’ll have a pro-business economy,” Sununu said. “We won’t have a cancel culture that has infiltrated across America. It’s not about Trump with me.” (ABC News)

One more Republican Con Artist pretending that anything negative he said about TRUMP was just a mistake, a mistake which should be overlooked because, well, because, no because, just BULL SHIT! SUNUNU was supposed to be the new kind of Republican politician, a sane mind in a sewer full of waste and witches. But like almost each and every Republican Politician hooked on their own survival rather than the survival of Democracy, Justice, and the Constitution, this douchebag pretends that his support is NOT about a wannabe dictator but for the good of the Republican Party. 

 

A MOB BOSS has taken over the Republican Party and turned it into a Fascist Cartel, and both Johnson and Sununu are perfect examples of the henchmen, willing and ready to commit mayhem and the murder of decency and democracy. And some people are still on the fence about not voting Republican in 2024!

RE-VICTIMIZED

 Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday continued to hammer Arizona’s new abortion ban and former President Trump’s role in overturning Roe vs. Wade during a surprise appearance in Century City. “Here's the thing about what they're doing and the cruelty of it: No exception in some states even for rape and incest. You are saying to a survivor of a crime of violence to their body, a violation to their body, that they have no right to make a decision about what happens to their body next,” Harris said. “That's immoral.” (Los Angeles Times)

When I read the article stating that Vice President Harris said, “You are saying to a survivor of a crime of violence to their body, a violation to their body, that they have no right to make a decision about what happens to their body next,” I suddenly had a “whack on the side of my head,” moment. It was as if a truth wthatwas always out there had suddenly reached the part of my gut attached closely to my brain. Think about it, a victim of rape, IS a survivor of violence to their body, A SURVIVOR, who now has become the perp, who no longer has victim status but IS, by the standards of the Faux Christian Republicans, the “BAD PERSON,” because they wish to take back control of their own body. You know, as in THE BODY from which VIOLENCE and TRAUMA had been inflicted.

 

THINK about that concept, AMERICA. A Rapist, be it a stranger, a family member, or a friend, just terrorized a person, causing all kinds of mental and physical harm and danger, and long-lasting repercussions, and immediately after that HORRIFIC episode, some self-proclaimed ‘WE KNOW WHAT IS BETTER FOR YOU, and OH HONEY, YOUR LIFE DOES NOT MATTER AS MUCH AS OUR BELIEFS, Republican, American Christian Nationalist Douchebag comes along ignoring the VICTIM, only to seemingly take joy in RE-VICTIMIZING THE VICTIM!

 

HOLY SHIT, INDEED!

 

 

still voting Republican!

 “First, I’d like to commend Coach Dawn Staley for supporting trans people playing sports and being an ally to the community. Rep. Mace’s divisive and transphobic comments are the latest example of lawmakers attempting to score political points with the MAGA base by attacking the LGBTQ+ community instead of doing the work they were elected to Congress to do,” Robinson told The Advocate in a statement. “Rep. Mace has raced to the front of the ranks of anti-equality legislators who are trying to vilify the transgender community at the expense of their constituents. When it comes to celebrating the achievements of women and girls, we’ll follow the lead of the Hall of Fame South Carolina coach who just won her third NCAA Women’s Basketball championship.” (ADVOCATE)

Lady Mace has backpedaled, backflipped, flip-flopped, circled the coaches around herself, and has become the premier example of a POLITICIAN MORE CONCERNED WITH WHAT IS GOOD FOR HER, RATHER THAN WHAT IS BETTER FOR HER CONSITUENTS.  Nancy Mace IS exactly what TRUMP expects from his flock, in which all he has to offer is FUCK ‘EM, f they do not obey me. Oh South Carolina, how pathetic a piece of poop you have become!

 

Many prominent Republicans in competitive races are in full thrall to the deranged election denialism that Donald Trump has required of them. (The New Republic)

Republican Politicians,  prefer to pander, preferring to align themselves with a wannabe dictator, choose a traitor over a Patriot, and say out loud that if it should help their own political careers, then fuck America and fuck Americans!

 

Mike Johnson Makes Pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago to Save His Speakership. And he got what he wanted: an endorsement from Donald Trump. (Vanity Fair)

The second person in line to become President, should the President and Vice President be removed from office, this spineless, Christian Nationalism Neanderthal, has once a has once again separated his backbone from his body, and has castrated himself placing his own greed and selfishness above any and all responsibility to America! Pretending that Jesus is his Lord and Savior, Little Mikey Johnson, instead has pledged his allegiance to one hell of an ANTI-Christ, and one hellof a Puppet for Putin!

 

And we still have way too many Americans still voting Republican!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

VIGILANTE

 Fascist AMERIKA and its own brand of Brown Shirts, White Robes, and Red Hats. The attempt, and it is sadly succeeding, to make America great again, as in the days of slavery, misogyny, segregation, bigotry, and xenophobia. The attempt to make AMERIKA great again is for a select few who are insecure, inept, unintelligent, empty, and angry at everyone else’s achievements because their only viability and visibility is to hate. 

The Safety in Private Spaces Act, or House Bill 1521, prohibits transgender people from using state-owned bathrooms that align with their gender identity. The measure has emboldened some citizens to monitor and confront those they suspect violating this law in various locations, including restaurants, gyms, and cinemas, where the law doesn’t apply.

Elliott King, for example, described a tense encounter in a men’s bathroom that left him shaken and contemplating leaving Florida for a safer environment. During a routine visit to get his oil changed, King encountered a stranger who aggressively questioned his gender identity. After affirming he was a man, King was met with continued scrutiny and a demeaning retort: “You don’t look like it.” (ADVOCATE)

 

Be it separate bathrooms, seats in the back of the bus, white’s only facilitates of the post-Civil War, the “papers please,” of Nazi Germany, the yellow Jewish patch, or the pink triangle for homosexuals and other perceived deviants of Germany, or the current crop of non-medical politicians and their dubious gang of goons pretending to have any iota of women’s reproductive body parts in Amerika; we are witnessing HISTORY (that horrifying factual recalling of our past, so feared and loathed by American Christian Nationalists) repeat itself. And as HISTORY is dubiously repeating itself, it is dredging up the VIGILANTE, the monster created by man and woman. The arrogant and totally ignorant, whose own lives are only miserable and rotted, think they have little to fear themselves acting as the bully; many, to most of them lacking any insight or introspective abilities, have no idea that what goes around WILL come around.

 

But you are Blanche

 Blanche: Jane, do you remember when I first came back after the accident?

Jane: You promised you wouldn't ever talk about that again.

Blanche: I know I did. But I'm still in this chair. After all those years, I'm still in this chair. Doesn't that give you some kind of responsibility? Jane, I'm just trying to explain to you how things really are. You wouldn't be able to do these awful things to me if I weren't still in this chair.

Jane: But you *are*, Blanche! You *are* in that chair!  imdb.com/ (What Ever Happened To Baby Jane)

 

Truth be told, except when you are either Baby Jane or a Republican in Amerika in the year 2024…

 

Why is anyone surprised when ANY REPUBLICAN is currently in office or dying to be elected to office? LIE? Let’s be honest Americans, REPUBLICANS LIE, LIE, LIE! ……..Kari Lake Pretends Not to Know Abortion Law She Specifically Endorsed. (New York Magazine)… Days after saying abortion should be left to the states, former President Trump criticized Arizona's ban for going too far. (MSNBC)… Somehow, it has become a common ailment for REPUBLICANS to feign amnesia regarding their HARD-LINE STANCE against Women’s Reproductive Rights when, in fact, Women’s Reproductive Rights have swiftly and severely been shredded away by REPUBLICANS!  Suddenly, the demise of Roe V Wade, which was heralded and hailed as a Sign of the Cross and celebrated as a victory for Republicans, which was an intentional action on their part, is being dismissed as a circumstance that appeared out of nowhere.

 

US aid to Ukraine is at a standstill, ground to a halt by mounting opposition from Republicans despite dire warnings from the White House and Kyiv.

While many are supportive of helping Ukraine, some have insisted that continued aid be tied to sweeping US immigration and asylum reforms.

Other conservative lawmakers have taken a harder line, opposing further Ukraine aid on ideological grounds. (BBC)…

The truth is that these same REPUBLICANS who could give one shit about DEMOCRACY thriving in UKRAINE also give no shits about DEMOCRACY thriving in America. This same group of REPUBLICANS, many of whom are in office because of undemocratic GERRYMANDERING, support TRUMP and his ambitions to become a DICTATOR, who have supported his attempted COUP and INSURECTION, and who have made it very clear that in their AMERIKA, no one is equal to them!

 

 

 

 

 

 

AIN'T THE SAME

 On Aug. 15, 2017, President Donald Trump held a press conference to discuss an executive order he had signed on infrastructure permitting. Reporters shortly began asking questions about Trump’s initial response to violent protests in Charlottesville, Va. It was at this press conference that Trump said that "you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides”…

On April 25, 2019, former Vice President Joe Biden declared his 2020 candidacy for the Democratic nomination and the presidency by recalling the events in Charlottesville and Trump’s comments. "With those words, the president of the United States assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate and those with the courage to stand against it," Biden said. (POLITIFACT)…

GOP-led Tennessee Senate advances bill to arm teachers without informing parents. Discussion of the bill was disrupted by protesters, including relatives of the victims of last year’s Covenant School shooting in Nashville. (MSNBC)…

NOPE, NADA, NOT AT ALL, folks. There ain’t good people on both sides. One side (the Democrats) cares about the lives of many, while the other side (the Republicans care about the profits of the NRA.

 

Trump, GOP scramble to contain abortion ‘earthquake’ The one-two punch from Florida and Arizona left Republicans reeling across the electoral map. (POLITICO)…

NO DUDES AND DUDETTES AIN’T THE SAME, WRONG, AMERICAN CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS. You Republicans bragged about placing  Justices on the Supreme Court; you know Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Princess Amy as they lied to our faces regarding women’s rights. Now, all you Republicans are concerned about are your rights to remain in power.

 

Despite facing backlash from civil rights activists and Democratic lawmakers, Republicans in conservative-leaning Nassau County, New York, are moving forward with a plan to form an armed, civilian militia that the local government could operate as a de facto police force during “emergencies.” (MSNBC)…

WTF Republican wannabe Authoritarians. Big difference between Democracy and Fascism. Bigger difference between being a Democrat than a Republican!

From end does he speak

 Trump’s been thinking a lot about Jewish votes recently, and how he can convince the demographic to vote for him in November. During an interview on Real America’s Voice on Tuesday, Trump argued that “any Jewish person that votes for Biden does not love Israel” and ominously commented that those people “should be spoken to.” (New Republic)

EXACTLY, TRUMP, by whom should those Jewish persons be spoken to, by your Jewish son-in-law Jared and his wife who converted to Judaism, your own special princess, Ivanka? You think they might take a break from licking the ass of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia who generously gifted them $2 Billion Dollars…for exactly what?

 

“And frankly, it’s incredible that historically Jewish people vote for Democrats. To me, I cannot. (New Republic)

 

WELL, TRUMP, maybe if YOU and your cadre of Republicans would stop having lunches or dinners, or chats or meetings with Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and American Nazis, and stopped insisting that there are good people on both sides and if all You and the Republicans would find the “backbone to denounce Anti-Semitism, maybe some of us Jews would actually think you cared!

 

“Frankly, he is a low-IQ individual. He has no idea where he is and who he is supporting. He doesn’t know if he is supporting the Palestinians,” Trump bellowed. “He knows one thing he is not supporting Israel. He has abandoned Israel. Any Jewish person who votes for a Democrat or Biden should have their head examined!” These latest remarks come just weeks after Trump said “any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion” and Israel. (Daily Beast)

 

SO, TRUMP, once again, you are confusing your own lack of integrity, low IQ, and very low, if any, commitment to your so-called Christianity with reality. TRUMP, I am an American who is Jewish. TRUMP, I support Israel to remain a free state. TRUMP, my Jewish God, the one that I privately talk to, has never ever told me that my religious beliefs only and always stem from Israel. Of course, TRUMP, you have ZERO idea of what faith, honor, justice, honesty, and conscience mean. Oh yeah TRUMP I am a Jewish person, and I am not the same as every other Jew in the world, you fucking ANTI-SEMITE! 

 

 

 

New Knowledge

 “…one of the main motivations for the Holy Inquisition was the ‘rooting out of new knowledge’…” (history.com). The term used to defend this fear of free thought and free choice was called heresy. Identifying anyone who was not loyal either to the Catholic Church or the Spanish Royalty as Heretics made punishment, torture, or isolation seem reasonable. After all, if people had the sheer audacity to seek new knowledge and disagree with the established powerful and speak up against the Royals or the Church, then those in POWER might discover that they, in fact, were in the minority! 

An INQUISITION, a bit of history entangled in the ugly part of a small group of people who tried their damndest to RETAIN POWER/MAINTAIN POWER, and to try and always keep all the POWER FOR THEMSELVES.

 

And now, in the year 2024, a long time since the Inquisition began and ended in the 13th century, in the United States, the Republican Party and their evil twin MAGA have launched their version of an AMERICAN INQUISITION.

 

You can’t say Gay; you must adhere to the rules of the Christian American Nationalist Church regarding the female body and the female reproductive system. You must ignore medical advice on vaccination and preventative care and instead follow the lead of people whose only medical background is to have studied Conspiracy Theories. You must be either male or female, and in being male or female, you must adhere to the sexual practices designated by, once again, non-medical wannabes. You must be called a sinner if, in fact, you are not an ex-president, current Congress Republican Member of Congress, sitting Governor, or Billionaire who has purchased or is in the process of purchasing Republican politicians. 

 

 You must adhere to HYPOCRICY at all times. And you must NEVER, EVER, seek out NEW KNOWLEDGE!

DON THE CON

 The Arizona Supreme Court ruled to make abortion largely illegal in the Grand Canyon State, reinstating a 160-year-old law that forbids all procedures except those to save a woman’s life. Justice John R. Lopez IV, writing for the court in a 4-2 split decision, said that a 2022 law allowing abortions up to 15 weeks of gestation depended on the existence of a federal constitutional right to abortion. And since the U.S. Supreme Court eliminated that right in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization ruling two years ago, that law can’t overrule one first passed in 1864, when Arizona was a territory. (Arizona Mirror)

Donald Trump unveiled a video announcement yesterday morning on his newest position on abortion policy, and if the former president’s goal was to make everyone “happy,” he failed spectacularly. Critics on the left, for example, noted all of the questions the Republican left unresolved, the absurd lies Trump included in the clip, and the degree to which he celebrated his role in rolling back reproductive rights in the United States. (MSNBC)

 

So desperate to become King of America (and to remain King for his eternity), DON THE CON  has once again used his language of DOUBLE SPEAK, SNAKE OIL SPEWING, and his belief that “THERE IS A SUCKER BORN EVERY MINUTE, and that those suckers WILL VOTE FOR HIM! (So far, his Bull shit, his snake oil ointment, and his total disregard for truth and reality have paid off for him.)

 

Now the Arizona Supreme Court, relying on an archaic law established when women were chattel and negros slaves, declared that since the Supreme Court of Amerika has overthrown Roe vs. Wade, and because the Supreme Court of Amerika by which three of the Justices were nominated by TRUMP, thus extending the majority of Christian Authoritarians, MADE IT CLEAR that states can once again declare women as second class citizens, just like those good old days of 1864, HAS GLADLY FOLLOWED TRUMPS LEAD AGAINST ABORTION RIGHTS.

 

So now DON THE CON suddenly notices that his actions just might have consequences, not for the rest of us but for DON THE CON!

 

 

 

 

 

No voting for YOU

 Trump-Endorsed Senate Candidate Questions if Nursing Home Residents Are Alive Enough to Vote

“If you’re in a nursing home, you only have five, six-month life expectancy,” Eric Hovde said in an interview earlier this month

Trump-endorsed Senate candidate Eric Hovde thinks people in nursing homes can't vote on their own because -- in his mind -- they're all at death's doorstep. 

During an April 5 interview on The Guy Benson Show, Hovde, a Republican running to unseat Democratic Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin, claimed that it was suspicious that some nursing homes in Wisconsin had "100-percent voting" percentages. (RollingStone)

 

One more Republican worried about how honest votes will most likely be votes against his candidacy, is now casting his net of falsehoods on people in nursing homes. One more non-Medical Professional Republican pretending that his NON-MEDICAL DEGREE qualifies him to know about the health and wellness of people in nursing homes. He, like many other Republicans, has decided that his own non-medical degrees make him more qualified to explain the biology of female reproductive systems, obstetrics, and gynecology. 

 

Trump-endorsed Senate Candidate Eric Hovde is just one more Trump-supported politician who seems to HATE the idea of Democracy and, of course, the rights of too many people who do not meet his criteria to vote. COME ON, CITIZENS OF WISCONSIN, DON’T YOU WONDER WHO WILL BE THE NEXT DEMOGRAPHIC TO BE DENIED DEMOCRACY!

 

To Sickly Project

 “Anything you can do, I can do better.

I can do anything better than you.” (Anything You Can Do/Irving Berlin)

 

“The Resolute Desk is beautiful,” Trump said, according to the source. “Ronald Reagan used it, others used it.”

Adopting a disgusted tone, the presumptive GOP nominee continued about his 2024 opponent: “And he’s using it. I might not use it the next time. It’s been soiled. And I mean that literally, which is sad.” The source in attendance relayed that “dinner guests laughed” and that “Mr. Trump’s remark was interpreted as the former president saying that Mr. Biden had defecated on the desk,” the Times wrote.

Trump launched another outrageous insinuation about Biden last week. He baselessly claimed the president was “higher than a kite” during his State of the Union speech and insisted that any debate he holds with Biden should be drug-tested. (HUFFPOST)

 

Projection can help a person with a narcissistic personality shift responsibility or shame for something they’ve done onto someone else. And there are certain personalities that may be easier to project onto than others. Narcissistic projection is a behavior that manifests when someone with a narcissistic personality projects a trait or behavior onto another person. (Psych Central)

 

By now, most people with an IQ above 10, those who do not act like a sociopath, and those who understand that there is truth and the rest is not the truth should be well aware that TRUMP is a person suffering from Delusional Narcissism tendencies. He has often been the guilty one in cases of fraud, rape, as well as purveyor of falsehoods and lies. And by now, if one has been inundated by all of the fabrications and accusations initiated by TRUMP, one understands that TRUMP is such a narcissistic sick person that he MUST ADMIT TO HIS OWN NEGATIVE BEHAVIORS. It is as if he wants us to know that whatever sick thing is has made up regarding other’s behavior, is IN REALITY, a commentary on his own actions! SICK, SAD MAN!
