“We have a chance to act and not react after the fact.”
Texas State Board of Education approves curriculum with Bible-based lessons. (Star-Telegram) It has begun; we saw it coming; the Heritage Foundation had announced it, but somehow, as it seeps down (the only real Republican “Trickle Down Theory), many won’t feel it until the Christian Nationalist Army occupies the Public School classrooms!
Earlier this month, in a move heralded by many of his supporters, Trump tapped Musk and biotech-company founder Vivek Ramaswamy to spearhead DOGE—sharing its name with a Musk-promoted cryptocurrency—to slash spending, regulations, and restructure federal agencies. (Wall Street Journal)
Heralded by Trump supporters, but wait until these two billionaires deplete the employment lists of Federal Agencies that offer food, housing, social security, and medical assistance to these same Trump MAGA sheep. No, it won’t be the wealthy supporters who will suffer because Musk and Ramaswamy will make sure that those 1% will not lose anything and will gain even more.
For Trump, it’s not a “downside” that his Cabinet picks “will not be sufficient stewards of these agencies,” Stewart said on the latest episode of his Weekly Show podcast. The point is that they are trying to “dismantle” the agencies themselves. (Daily Beast)
Trump has no need for any government that might restrict his own personal needs, wealth, or power. The sooner all of the guardrails are removed, the sooner Trump can and will remake the US government into the Republic of Trump. Trump has demonstrated over and over and over again his disdain for anything or anyone who tries to stop him from grifting. I believe that because Trump knows he is a bully and a future king, he knows that eventually, his Republicans in Congress will do his bidding. Gaetz was just a kink in the road; his replacement is just as bad, but Biondi will get the job because Republicans will not cross Trump twice.
I write my blogs, I write to Politicians and I know that my words are just meager pokes at a Dam too large to fail, but if we all don’t chip away NOW, later will be too late!
