Burn it

Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food—enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week—are set to expire tomorrow, according to current and former government employees with direct knowledge of the rations. Within weeks, two of those sources told me, the food, meant for children in Afghanistan and Pakistan, will be ash. (The sources I spoke with for this story requested anonymity for fear of professional repercussions.) (The Atlantic)

Once again, Trump and his MAGA Republican Party of Pro-Death demonstrate the art of the deal not only to starve the innocent, but to make it worse by giving zero shits about it.

And where, oh where, are the hues and cries from the pro-Life Christians who insist every life matters? Oh my bad, those lives only matter while inside the womb of the seed carrier, the mother. 

Our Car Crash

 “Trump crashes team’s FIFA Club World Cup trophy photo, booed by soccer fans. “I was a bit confused,” said Chelsea soccer star Cole Palmer after the president neglected to leave the stage following the trophy presentation ceremony. (MSNBC)

The most insecure buffoon, once again suffering from delusions of grandeur, so sick with narcissism, wanders around as a lost and soulless vessel sailing in a sea filled with a cesspool of his own inadequacies. 

“Targeting a critic, Trump claims a power he does not have in new authoritarian move. When an American president with an authoritarian-style vision starts claiming abusive powers he does not have, it’s best not to look away.” (MSNBC)

He will try to get away with the powers and authorities limited explicitly by our Constitution, but he never read the Constitution, and if he did, he prefers his own distorted version, which has been encouraged by the Heritage Foundation's Supreme Court Justices. It’s too late to be afraid; it’s time to fight back.

Two situations from the same man, both pathetic, both problematic, and so far, all we seem capable of doing is watching the car crash as if we were sitting in the front seat.

 

 

 

food and murder

 Food Banks Are Running Out of Food Exactly When More Americans Will Need Them

‘The most challenging situation I’ve seen in 17 years.’ Cuts to food stamps and other federal programs mean some people go home hungry. (The Wall Street Journal)

Hungry, what an awful feeling, hungry with nowhere to turn to eat, must be an even more inhuman pain from which to suffer the consequences of a political Party identifying more with billionaires and Corporations than human beings. And to think that this government must hope that Food Banks will solve the problem of hunger is outrageous, to say the least.

And since way too many Americans do not go hungry, they are not limited to perhaps, if lucky enough, one meal a day…who exactly will remain the advocates for the poor? Homelessness, lack of medical coverage or care, and now starvation are always the fault of someone else; the people with no collateral are always considered some kind of low life, some kind of animal that deserves their injustice by a society that is too far distant.

I call it Republican Pre-Meditated Murder, and those Republicans who supported the Big Beautiful Bill are Pre-Meditated Murderers.

Lunacy

 Trump says he is considering revoking citizenship of longtime foe Rosie O'Donnell. (Houston Chronicle)

In the position, perhaps, as the most powerful person in the world, this insecure psychopath, Trump, is waging war on Rosie O’Donnell. Seriously, Rosie O’Donnell! This is where the President of the United States has drawn one more of his Red Lines!

As he tried to quell a revolt among his own MAGA supporters who are furious about what they believe is a Jeffrey Epstein “coverup,” President Donald Trump perhaps inadvertently bestowed a bizarre new nickname on the accused child sex trafficker, calling him “a guy who never dies.” (SILIVE.com)

You know when Trump continues to talk, and talk, and talk about subjects he scolds others to stop talking about, that he cannot stop talking because his narcissism won’t allow him to NOT admit to something criminal he has committed!

How much more mayhem and manic behavior can the American people handle? I write about these idiotic outbursts from Trump, knowing full well that he is a crazy, guilty, insecure individual, yet also knowing that my blogs cannot stop his lunacy, but I must wonder how much longer this can go on?

 

Secret Police

 ICE's 'Secret Police' Are Horrifying. Team Trump Is Laughing. The administration is using memes to troll Democrats and others who are concerned about its brutal deportation tactics. (RollingStone)

Secret Police for Trump, the Fascist Dictator. Stephen Miller, the Heinrich Himmler of Trump’s Fourth Reich, and his Gestapo delight in the fact that the nation, not just democrats, reels at the idea of “papers, please”, brown shirts, rounding up immigrants, and those Americans who happen also to have various shades of brown as their skin color.

These henchmen could give zero fucks regarding the inhumanity they unleash just to satisfy their sick, sad, psychotic bigotry. And it seems that the Christian Nationalists find this entire ploy something that would also satisfy their white’s only God.

Him again!

 "Well I think everyone did an incredible job under the circumstances. This was, I guess, Kristi said, a one in five hundred, one in a thousand years, and uh, I just have admiration for the job that everybody did." (Trump) (BuzzFeed)

Reporter: Several families are upset because they’re saying the alerts didn’t go out in time. What do you say to those families?

"Only a bad person would ask a question like that to be honest with you. I don't know who you are, but only a very evil person would ask a question like that." (Trump) (BuzzFeed).

Of course, the incompetent, unemotional, psycho, felon, fraudster, lying pig would get defensive and attack a reporter who was trying to get an honest answer from this thug. He, the guy who is deporting babies, cancer victims, pregnant women, non-violent humans without due process, calls this reporter a bad person. Good for that reporter calling Trump out, whose own decisions aided in the delayed response to this tragedy. Missing any sense of conscience, no ability to live in reality, of course, this monster refuses to demonstrate leadership of any kind. 

And isn’t it amazing how a once-in-500 or 1000-year climate event has happened four weeks in a row!

 

 

Who's to BLAME

Grok’s Nazi tirade sparks debate: Who’s to blame when AI spews hate? Antisemitic outbursts from the chatbot promoted by Elon Musk shows how AI companies often face minimal consequences when their projects go rogue. (Washington Post)

Love the question, “…who’s to blame…” it’s Musk we are talking about, the guy who gladly provided the world with a Seig Heil salute, the white supremacist apartheid South African, a once proud member of the Trump Administration…who’s to blame, really!

Is AI so advanced that it cannot be stopped from acting on behalf of its creator, Musk? Is Grok so separate of an entity that a reprogram cannot be implemented to correct the human prejudice flowing from Musk? 

And now, like most Corporations that are deemed people by the Heritage Foundation Supremes, they (The corporations) are suddenly exempt from taking responsibility for the consequences they create. Oh yeah, and this South African wants to start a third political party, calling it the American Party, maybe he left off another word in the name of his new political party, identifying it as the American Nazi Party.

 

  

OBSERVATION

 “White House border czar suggests ICE can detain people based on ‘physical appearance’ Tom Homan’s comments about ICE agents being able to detain people based on “their physical appearance” will likely make racial profiling concerns worse.” (MSNBC)

-----WTF, WHAT THE FUCK, so now we have finally found the truth behind these ICE raids, (as if the normal functioning American did not know this already): it was never about immigrants, rather what THOSE PEOPLE looked like and or sounded like, because THOSE PEOPLE happen to be born with various shades of brown skin.

“Homan said: “Look, people need to understand, ICE officers and Border Patrol don’t need probable cause to walk up to somebody, briefly detain them, and question them. They just need totality of the circumstances, right? They just go through the observation, get our typical facts — based on the location, the occupation, their physical appearance, their actions.”” (MSNBC)

-----He says detain them briefly, whether it is a second, an hour, or days, the only reason they are being illegally detained is due to the OBSERVATIONS of masked ICE Gestapo. No more facts necessary, just one asswipe in ICE clothing deciding I don’t like the look of what’s going on. What is the TOTALITY OF CIRCUMSTANCES, and when did ICE become the judge and jury of where people gather as to deciding they should be questioned?

What’s next, ICE standing in front of a Democratic candidate's office, deciding that today it’s Democrats they don’t like, or Muslims standing in front of a Mosque, or a group of one too many African Americans standing on the sidewalk of their own neighborhood. What fucking TYPICAL FACTS are these newly appointed Brown Shirts going to gather?

We are already down that road of “PAPER’S PLEASE, and the road ahead seems nothing less than horrifying.

 

 

 

OF COURSE

 “This U.N. document undercuts Trump’s darkest mass deportation claims. El Salvador's government told U.N. investigators that the detainees America shipped to its CECOT maximum security prison are still under U.S. control.” (msnbc.com)

-----Of course they are, and of course they always have been. To lie is to be Trump. Now the real question becomes who has the backbone and balls to call him out on this deceit and demand a return of these detainees? 

“FEMA should be more visible after Texas floods. But that’s not what Trump wants. The acting FEMA director's swaggering bravado might be welcome if he seemed dedicated to carrying out FEMA’s mission. But that doesn't appear to be the reason he was hired. He was hired not to carry out FEMA’s mission but to oversee its demise.” (msnbc.com)

-----Of course, there will be thoughts and prayers, and if more is expected from the Trump Administration, then you might as well be wearing a T-Shirt that says, “I’m With Stupid!” How in the world can the GOP pay for permitting their billionaire puppet masters to remain kings and queens if the GOP must actually care for the lives and liberties of the masses?

OF COURSE, all of these revelations regarding Trump find oxygen, but as has been the case with the real TRUTH compared to Trump’s TRUTH, all we seem to get are the facts and not much else to change the circumstances.

 

 

More headlines

  -----One more statistic to try to beat the COVID-19 deaths during the first Trump Dictatorship. Crowd size is always a big deal to the oversized moron Trump and now his handy side-kick, Brain Worm Kennedy. The Party of Pro-Death loves to see just how many premeditated murders they can commit.

“U.S. sees most single-year measles cases since it declared disease eliminated.” (STAT)

-----He may have left the anti-Semitic, racist administration of Trump, but Musk has not changed his anti-Semitic ways. The South African Apartheid Immigrant hates with pleasure, and with pleasure he will try to persuade the weak-minded to hate exactly as he does. He should name his new Political Party the Confederacy, or the Fourth Reich!

“ELON MUSK’S GROK IS CALLING FOR A NEW HOLOCAUST The chatbot is also praising Hitler and attacking users with Jewish-sounding names.” (The Atlantic)

-----Another once in a 100 year climate event has taken place just days after another once-in-a-year climate catastrophe happened. And yet the MAGA minions and their chief nut job, Trump, refuse even to say the words climate change. How many more lives must be ruined and shattered before the will of the people is a priority over the will of the Corporations?

“A state of emergency has been declared in New Mexico as severe flooding sweeps across parts of the state, forcing evacuations, closing roads, and threatening homes and businesses.” (Newsweek)

 

 

Who Is Next

 Border Patrol official sends ominous message to Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. After the Trump administration’s militaristic show of force at MacArthur Park, a local Border Patrol official says people “better get used to us now.” (msnbc.com)

The Brownshirts: The Role of the Sturmabteilung (SA) in Nazi Germany The SA were the Sturmabteilung, meaning 'assault division'. The group were also known as the Brownshirts or Storm Troopers. It was a violent paramilitary group attached to the Nazi Party in pre-World War Two Germany. (History Hit)

"Your papers, please" is an expression or trope associated with police state functionaries demanding identification from civilians during random stops or at checkpoints. It is a cultural metaphor for life in a police state. A German soldier in uniform, or a Gestapo agent in plain clothes, would utter the spine-chilling words “Papiere, Bitte” (”Papers, Please”). What made those words spine chilling was the fact that whoever they were uttered to was in imminent danger of arrest, imprisonment, torture, and execution. (Mises Institute).

No longer is it history, the kind of fearful didn’t we learn our lesson once before history, but the entire Fascist/Nazi playbook of authoritarianism nationalism has become our reality our norm. One should beg the question, who is next? 

 

 

 

"Drill Baby"

 Kerr County asked Texas to help pay for a flood warning system for 8 years. (Austin American-Statesman)

But instead, the Texas legislature has a supermajority of Republican/MAGA members who were busy spending their money on taking the rights away from pregnant women, trans kids, banning books, and trying to get the 10 Commandments in Public Schools. No time for the real issues of the day, that would make them too WOKE.

Margie Putin Greene (of Jewish Space Laser Fame) is now sure that THEY (one must wonder who she assumes THEY might be) are seeding the clouds and controlling the weather. Rather than actually say the words climate change, Margie Putin Greene would rather blame an imaginary boogie man for this deadly disaster.

And the ever persistent TWAT of a Texas Governor’s response was that prayers actually stopped the river from cresting and flooding even more land and murdering more people. His response was not to admit that climate change is here to stay, but to insist that more prayers are the only salvation from future devastation. 

And the mantra of Trump and his Republican Brown Shirts is “Drill Baby Drill!”

 

NO EVIDENCE, uh-huh

 Trump Admin’s Epstein Denial Backfires, Revives Elon Musk Allegations. (NewYork)

But of course, the Republican FBI and the Republican DOJ, under the tutelage of Trump, have come to conclusive evidence that there is NO, ZERO, ZILCH evidence that Epstein had a client list, and even though Epstein was under close and intense guards while in jail, that he, Epstein, somehow found the means to commit suicide. Case closed so say Trump and his ass licking sideshow of supposedly serious keepers of the law of the land.

NO EVIDENCE, as in when an AR15-style rifle had shot the so-called Ear of Trump, and no one really got to read the physician's report, and suddenly, after a week of show and tell, the bionic ear mysteriously and miraculously heals.

The lying POTUS makes a living from the con, and he has hired a professional team of cohorts to help spread the lie and let the Conspiracy linger and live. 

No list, and Epstein committed suicide, just like there were two actual assassination attempts on Trump’s life.                         

my GUT hurts

 -----My gut hurts. No, my gut throbs a nagging, painful, lingering pang.

“Idaho bans ‘Everyone Is Welcome Here’ classroom signs, calling them ideological.” (msnbc.com)

-----So in Idaho classrooms, not everyone is welcome, just a select few, of course selected by the state Fascists.

-----I have this gnawing burning sensation in my gut. My gut seems to tell my brain, 'Please do not read the news; go hide your head in the sand. We will both feel better.'

“Don’t call it ‘Alligator Alcatraz.’ Call it a concentration camp. This facility’s purpose fits the classic model, and its existence points to serious dangers ahead for the country.” (msnbc.com)

-----So now, in the next phase toward Fascism, we are building camps, not the kind people enjoy for the summer, but places of concentrated doom.

-----My gut wants to scream, but instead it racks my body with a throbbing and irritable pain.

“The GOP megabill fulfills JD Vance’s incredibly depressing vision of patriotism. The vice president has done as much as anyone in the administration to create the justification for enormously increasing enforcement resources.” (msnbc.com)

-----So now, Herr Vance, following the orders of Herr Trump, has decided the truest form of Democracy is to formulate a Fascist position of armed enforcement, and loyalty not to the Constitution but rather to the Police State.

 

 

 

 

even worse

 The Big Beautiful Bill is BIG, it ain’t beautiful, and it's a bogus bill of sale.

“It gives tax breaks for gun silencers. Should it be easier to shoot someone in the United States? Republicans think yes. Trump's bill throws several favors to gun retailers and lobbyists, most notably the repeal of a $200 tax on firearm suppressors, more commonly known as "silencers.” (RollingStone)

-----So go ahead and purchase that slencer and make your killing spree less pronounced as they pronounce your victim dead.

“It is a disaster for renewable energy — and the economy Trump's bill will have a devastating impact on renewable energy, revoking scores of clean energy subsidies, credits, and grants given to green energy projects -- many in Republican areas.”(RollingStone)

-----Climate change is just a Democrat pipe dream, and the vast amount of floods, tornadoes, droughts, and wildfires are projections from the Left and Progressives. But keep the Oil Cartel healthy.

“It cuts food assistance. Trump's bill slashes spending on SNAP by $287 billion over 10 years. In order to do this, Republicans are making eligibility requirements more exclusionary, instituting new restrictions on federal SNAP funding for states.” (RollingStone)

If you ain’t a fetus located in the womb of the Seed Carrier (the mother), the Republicans have little desire for you to live a full life. If you ain’t born into a wealthy family, well fuck you you poor baby there is no way your life should be made easier, get a job damn it.

concentration camps

 The bill puts over $45 billion into the construction and expansion of detention facilities and transportation, enough money to open up about 116,000 detention beds. The moves would create a migrant holding system that rivals the size of the entire federal prison system. (RollingStone)

-----In other words, the Big Beautiful Bill has appropriated funds to build Concentration Camps throughout America. Cute to use the phrase migrant holding centers, instead of Concentration Camps, as if those of us who have read history books will somehow be fooled just the like the ilk of people who have no idea of Fascism and the Nazi’s

"Once we have an apparatus set up in this manner," says Gupta, "our experience is that it's incredibly challenging to dismantle it -- even if the American public no longer supports such sweeping enforcement and detention." (Nayna Gupta, policy director of the American Immigration Council, an immigrant advocacy organization)”

-----The expectation, like so many other Government bureaucratic blunders, is that once it is alive and functioning as another form of prison and once the corporations are profiting from it, dismantling these Concentration Camps will face an uphill battle. It’s called money in politics, and you know, whichever state owns the land for the Concentration Camps, their local politicians will be paid off.

NEXT...

 Jewish leaders call out President Trump’s use of antisemitic slur. Trump told reporters he didn't know the term “shylocks” was problematic. (MSNBC.com)

Shylock was the greedy Jewish moneylender and main antagonist in Shakespeare’s classic 1600 play “The Merchant of Venice.” The term remains “among the most quintessential antisemitic stereotypes.” (Jewish Council for Public Affairs)

Trump and his Brown Shirts pretend and arouse the public whenever there is an anti-Israel protest on college campuses, insisting that those folks are antisemites, all the while codling the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, and the Christian Nationalists. Look at the Leftists shout the MAGA they hate Jews, all the while the Trump Gestapo espouses anti-Semitic tropes over and over again.

The Jews are next in line, I suppose, for this Fascist Dictator, I mean, you have the Brown Immigrants, the Trans community, the LGB demographic, the African Americans, those Women who have the audacity to want ownership of their bodies, the Poor. Hitler singled out the minorities, one by one, until almost anyone who was not supposedly of pure German blood was the enemy.

Miriam Adelson gives $100 million to Trump campaign, making good on reported pledge. Hey Mimi, how the fuck do you feel about your guy using the word “shylocks?” Is your Jewishness different than the rest of us because you spent your money on this Anti-Semite!

 

 

 

the KNOW nothings

 Asked about tax breaks for the wealthy and cuts to Medicaid, most of the American mainstream will say, “No thanks.” (It’s notable that the megabill is only popular with those who know effectively nothing about it.) (msnbc.com)

THOSE WHO EFFECTIVELY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT IT…That sentence says it all in the world of American Politics. The matter of fact is that for the MAGA voter, facts don’t matter, and what matters is that as long as they believe harm will come to others, the MAGA minions and cultists remain oblivious that in fact they too are the OTHER!

The suffering will begin in earnest, and for the first time in Republican history, “TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS will actually take place. Trickle down, as in, after the wealthy and corporations receive their feast of money, the leftovers and scraps will fall upon everyone else. And more and more Americans will actually discover what it is to be living at the bottom of the barrel.

gets a whole lot worse

 “House GOP holdouts fall in line, agree to bring Trump agenda to floor.” (CNN)

-----The Trump Reign of Terror continues in broad daylight, and his reign of death and destruction has been welcomed by the Republican Party, placing their own personal interests above and beyond the people.            

“That includes some House hardliners who have complained that the package would add $3.3 trillion to the deficit over the next decade, as well as moderate-leaning members who have concerns about Medicaid cuts.” (CNN)

-----The deficit grows because the billionaire puppet masters have enough money to bribe the politicians, but never enough money to pay their fair share of taxes. People will suffer and perhaps die because of their basic rights to decent and affordable health care, having been dissolved by the Republican Party of Pro-Death.

And even more frightening are the myriad details and new laws hidden in this Fascist Bill, from voting rights, to providing the President with more powers, and of course, the kind of immigration plans to evict anyone that the Trump Administration considers its enemy.

As bad as it has been for America and Americans it is about to get a whole lot worse."

fight back

 Distract, Discredit, Divide are three directives flowing from the sewer, which is Trump and his administration of “Brown Shirts, and the MAGA Gestapo.

Add to that “Look Over There,” “The Other,” and Hypocrisy and you have the intended cruelty, deceit, and authoritarianism demonstrated by the Republican Party. 

Throw in the rot and ruin filtered down from the Heritage Foundation’s Supreme Court Justices, the purposeful lies and fabrications from the State-run propaganda of FOX Noise, and the sheer ignorance and indulgence of racism and bigotry from the MAGA world and its cadre of voters and we have a bullseye target to rid this nation of Democratic principles evolving into Christian Nationalism and German style Fascism.

I am not certain how the rest of WE THE PEOPLE fight this cancer, but remaining quiet, or silent, or ignoring any or all of it is something that anyone who loves freedom, choice, science, education, liberty, and justice can not afford to do

Awaiting

 Trump's absence from slain Minnesota lawmaker's funeral goes beyond indifference. Trump refuses to use a key opportunity to turn down the temperature on political violence. (msnbc.com)

Trump has no intention of turning down the political violence; he thrives on the chaos and the opportunity to avoid his deficits in governing. Trump understands the values of a divided nation and will continue to tear this nation apart. He has also militarized his followers into examples of the ‘Brown Shirts’ and has made parts of his administration into a form of the Gestapo.

With permission from the entire Republican cadre of politicians, with the assistance of the majority of so-called Justices within the Supreme Court, the case of bleeding our nation dry of democracy is in Trump’s favor, and the gutting of this nation’s moral fiber is life-threatening.

As I write this, my gut aches, and I must wonder if there is a chance to stop this mass murder of freedoms, liberties, and justice, or are we all just victims awaiting our turn to become “THE OTHER?”

 

 

 

OBLIVIOUS

 Trump Tax Bill Hits Senate as GOP Torn by Competing Demands. (Bloomberg)

But not one GOP Senator has even raised the question of raising the percentage of taxes paid by the 1 or 2%, or how much more income would be received by a fairer tax on Corporations. All of the conversation is about what gets cut and what stays intact, and there has been zero, ZERO discussion on perhaps increasing the amount of taxes the wealthiest of Americans can and should pay.

The insanity, the sheer self-indulgence by the puppet politicians to protect their puppet masters, is maddening. The math is easy even for the most primary of budget-wise people, but the fact that politicians are owned and operated by special interest groups, by billionaires, by Dark Money makes the obvious, oblivious!

When you become THE OTHER

If there is a defining characteristic of President Donald Trump’s second term — aside from shameless self-enrichment out of the executive branch — I’d argue it’s the proliferation of unabashed and outspoken racism espoused by the president and many of his most loyal followers. (MSNBC-opinion)

The immigrants, especially those whose skin color happens to be in shades of brown, people who identify as trans men or women who use pronouns as they or them, protestors who have the audacity to use free speech as they protest the actions of the Trump Dictatorship, citizens who happen to have various shades of black for their skin color, people with special needs, poor people, women who want ownership of their bodies and reproductive organs, these demographics are the current crop of Americans who have publicly been granted the status of “It’s Okay To Racial Profile Them, and It’s Okay To Apply Bigoted Actions Against.

Trump made very clear his intentions upon becoming President once again. He has now demonstrated just how much of a Racist, a Bigot, and a Hater he always was and will continue to be. But worse, this time around, his MAGA Republican harem and freak show sycophants feel emboldened to follow in his path.

Ya gotta ask the question, who will be next, and when will it finally cast you as “THE OTHER?” 

It is no longer

 -----It is no longer the Supreme Court of the United States, it IS, in fact, Trump’s Court, better yet, the Heritage Society Court, and the MAGA majority of Justices would rather follow their bigoted, racist, and radical ways to hate, loathe, and disregard laws they, like Trump, have no patience for.

“The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling tied to birthright citizenship prompted confusion and phone calls to lawyers as people who could be affected tried to process a convoluted legal decision with major humanitarian implications.”

-----The Fascist regime of Trump and his Gestapo are slowly but surely draining the powers of the third rail of the US government, The Judiciary, sapping any chances for fair and equal treatment under the law.

“The court's conservative majority on Friday granted President Donald Trump his request to curb federal judges' power but did not decide the legality of his bid to restrict birthright citizenship.”

-----The Constitution is no longer a priority; it has become a meaningless and useless document that does not fit into Trump and his Court of MAGA Jesters to rewrite the laws of the land in their image.

-----That outcome has raised more questions than answers about a right long understood to be guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution: that anyone born in the United States is considered a citizen at birth, regardless of their parents' citizenship or legal status.

 

 

 

watch out

The Heritage Foundation Supreme Court (not the US Supreme Court, because that institution died once the majority of Christian Nationalist judges took over) is hearing  six cases in their closing days of operation before their summer break.  Most to many of these cases impact just how much freedom and choice, liberty and justice “WE THE PEOPLE” shall retain.

Birthright citizenship, Religion vs. LGBTQ books in public schools, Porn and the First Amendment, Health care and the Constitution are four of the cases which when decided will eliminate or encourage the Constitution to be inclusive of all citizens of this nation.

The divide between church and state, historic precedent, religious standards, and the health and welfare of the people of the United States are all up for grabs, all to be decided by a majority of non-elected, bought and paid for Justices who have demonstrated bias over the law of the land. 

These are important questions, and the people answering them seem more attuned to answering to their puppet masters than the PEOPLE! 

Goring/Himmler/Miller

 The architect of Trump's immigration policy could be profiting off ICE's cruelty. While Stephen Miller's anti-immigration fervor may be scratching an ideological itch, on Tuesday, we learned it may also be making him money. (msnbc.com)

The American Hermann Goring of Nazi notoriety, Stephen Miller, is all about the ethnic cleansing of America all the while making big bucks on the lives of the men and women and children he is expelling from the US. Make no mistake, this American “papers please” Fascist is happy to pretend he is all about America First, but he is much happier when the profits from his deportations make it to Stephen Miller first.

As if Stephen Miller was not just replaying the role of Hermann Goring, he is also assuming the role of Heinrich Himmler, who was also appointed Chief of German Police by Hitler in 1936. Seems Miller can’t get enough Fascist philosophy into American policy, and his joy in ethnic cleansing (most of the immigrants deported, kidnapped, snatched happen to be people of brown skin) is pure NAZI delight.

 

and the REST of us

So very 2025 in the USA when Jeff Bezos, the 4^th wealthiest man in the world, has an estimated wealth of $226.7 billion. The Bezos-Sánchez wedding has been estimated to cost between $23 million $34 million, as previously reported by USA TODAY. I do not begrudge him and his wife, Lauren Sanchez, the wedding of a lifetime, but what if Bezos and the other Billionaire Bros in this country were actually lawfully instructed to pay their fair share in taxes?

Meanwhile, while he and his cohort of billionaire dudes, and dudettes are off to Venice living the high life, and most likely will benefit dramatically from Trump's Big Beautiful Pro-Death Bill, the description for the rest of us is the following.

“It was the Best of Times and the Worst of Times.” “Let them Eat Cake.” “Buddy Can You Spare a Dime?” “Pull Yourself Up From Your Boot Straps.” And “Arbeit macht frei” (“Work makes one free.” 

mitch, again

 Mitch McConnell says voters will ‘get over’ losing Medicaid. That’s a risky bet. (msnbc.com)

The Crypt Keeper, a multimillionaire himself, living off the taxpayers' dime, has asserted that those who lose their Medicaid coverage will get over it. Does he mean get over it because they have died without the assistance? Does he mean they will get over it because, without it, their health and welfare will just deteriorate? Does he mean that those on Medicaid just decide to go out and purchase a health plan costing them more money than they earn?

Ancient and old Mitch just keeps on keeping on representing his political party of Pro-Death, his arrogance is just one more example of why term limits should have and must be put in place, and why money must be taken out of politics and politicians' pockets 

MAGA Influencers

 Threat of Iranian ‘sleeper cells’ provokes paranoia among MAGA influencers. (MSNBC)

WTF, seriously WTF, to think that our national policies are being directed and orchestrated by a group of inept, inbred, idiots known as MAGA influencers.

From Podcaster and failed comedian Joe Rogan to some lady who named Laura Loomer, to Tucker Carlson, add to that the entire faux news crew from FOX, and criminals pardoned by Trump, the daily decisions of life, death, liberty, and fascism are being held as truth by Trump and his hand-picked MAGA Gestapo.

None of these people were elected, and none of them have much in the way of credentials, except that they have followers on the Internet. Most of these people are only out for their own 15 minutes of fame. 

Add to all of that that any anticipated Executive action is first announced on Truth Social, usually ALL IN CAPS.       

There is so much to be worried about, and now we have the added burden of including the comments and commentary of NO BODIES identifying themselves as MAGA INFULENCERS. HELP!

Numbers

 Earlier this month, Kennedy removed all 17 sitting members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and appointed eight new members, some of whom have been critics of shots -- especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. (abc News)

Under Donald Trump's presidency, the U.S. COVID-19 death toll reached approximately 400,000 by the time he left office on January 19, 2021. (abc News)

----The Trump Administration is all about the size of crowds. Perhaps this year, what with Covid, and the large array of other life-saving vaccines being ignored, the Trump Administration, under the tutelage of Brian Worm Kennedy, wants to increase the number of people who will die an unnecessary death.

According to a draft agenda published online, the committee will hold votes on maternal/pediatric respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines and RSV vaccines under the federal Vaccines for Children program. (abc News)

----Brain Worm Kennedy and his slew of faux scientists and medical witch doctors seem to like most other members of the Republican Pro-Death Party give zero shits about the fetus and the zygote once they are released from the womb. And we suffer the consequences of these fools.

It ain’t Halloween, but the goblins, devils, monsters, and creatures are parading up and down our streets pretending for us not to bother ourselves with the stuff going on in Iran. It’s just American might, and it’s easy peazy, as in wham BAM, ma’am, we did it, and now all the possible bloody scenarios are over.

The creeps are in our neighborhoods, our cities, or nations, our homes, and no one is really gonna be safe from Freddy and Jason.

 

 

The "UTZ"

 “Trump's Iran strikes meet bipartisan blowback in Congress over war powers.” (AXIOS)

-----One more defiant action by the Dictator in Chief to run the country his way.

“No matter what Trump says, the US has gone to war – and there will be profound and lasting consequences.” (The Guardian)

----Once upon a time, Congress was the checks and balances for Presidential chaos, but this time the majority in Congress of Pro-Death Republicans are a part of the chaos, and they are spineless traitors.

“Trump Issues Grave Warning to Reporters: ‘You Are in Danger’ “You’re even in danger talking to me right now,” he said. “Do you know that? You are in danger talking to me right now, so I should probably get out of here. But you guys are actually in danger. Can you believe it?” Interestingly, this isn’t the first time that Trump has offered “danger” as a reason to end an interview.” (The Daily Beast)

-----Threatening the Media as they try to find some answers, secure some facts, acting upon the freedom of the press, only to indirectly be threatened by a mad man who has no time for truth and a disdain toward democracy.

I feel hopeless, helpless, as just an average American citizen, suffering from a UTZ in my gut (a UTZ is a term my Grandmother used to describe the ability to want to change something, but the inability of the universe to let that change happen), I see AUTHORITARIANISM blossoming, Fascism rising, and find myself unable to change this horrible path forward.

 

 

VANCE

 Vance defends using military to quell protests, refers to Sen. Alex Padilla as ‘José’ (USA TODAY)

Be afraid of Vance, this power-hungry, self-serving hypocrite is smart enough to understand the value of hate, division, and the common language spoken by the stupid and bigoted. An arrogant twat of a politician he may pretend to Trump’s scene dream of America First, but in the end it is Vance First and foremost. The same guy who insisted that Haitians were eating dogs and cats in Springfield now has slyly and with tremendous slime decided that any person with a Hispanic-sounding last name should be called Jose; it’s Vance’s mean-spirited intention to insult and demean.

Ain’t no way that when the next insurrection comes around, the Domestic Terrorists will shout “hang Vance” as did Mike Pence, because JD has done a great job of eating Trump’s entrails and acting the part of Trump’s boy.

Be afraid because the second in command of this nation is far more intelligent, cunning and calculating than his Lord and Master. I know I fear JD Vance.

BIGOTRY

 Because as the country celebrated the end of slavery on the federal holiday, Trump took to Truth Social in the evening and appeared to complain about it all. “Too many non-working holidays in America,” he wrote. “It is costing our Country $BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed. The workers don’t want it either! Soon we’ll end up having a holiday for every once working day of the year. It must change if we are going to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” (PennLive.com)

The blatancy of Trump’s racism grows bolder and bolder each and every day he embraces a return to the days of the Confederacy, and the racist policies and pogroms that fueled the bigotry and hatred of slave owners and segregationists. 

Exactly what color skin are the majority of Immigrants, citizens, legal immigrants, and illegals being kidnapped by the SS, oops, I mean, ICE; brown skinned people are the target. When Trump adds that he wants to make America great again, what America is he referring to, the days of WHITES ONLY? 

In MAGA land, it seems that unless you are a White Christian Nationalist Male, with a White Christian Nationalist Babe in tow, a Captain in your house calling all the shots, and insisting your Gal has a bun in her White oven, as often as possible, you ain’t great enough for America!

NEXT...

 When the Supreme Court upheld a ban on gender-affirming care for minors Wednesday, it didn’t resolve a broader question of whether transgender people are entitled to certain legal protections that would help them press constitutional challenges. But Justice Amy Coney Barrett went out of her way to explain why she thinks transgender people don’t deserve such protection. (MSNBC)

Transgender people are now being classified as non-Americans, non-human, and eventually non-citizens. Justice Coney Barrett has decided to play the role of God and decree who has rights and who doesn’t, making Justices Alito and Thomas seem like saints.

Two distinct laws passed in Nazi Germany in September 1935 are known collectively as the Nuremberg Laws: the Reich Citizenship Law and the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor. These laws embodied many of the racial theories underpinning Nazi ideology. They would provide the legal framework for the systematic persecution of Jews in Germany. (Holocaust Encyclopedia)

The ugly wheel of racism, Christian Nationalism, and Fascism has begun to veer straight into the protections afforded by our Constitution and our once impermeable democracy.

While the Nuremberg Laws specifically mentioned only Jews, the laws eventually extended to Black people and Roma and Sinti (Gypsies) living in Germany. The definition of Jews, Black people, and Roma as racial aliens facilitated their persecution in Germany. (Holocaust Encyclopedia)

WE all watch in shock and awe just how easily any one of us can suddenly be considered “THE OTHER,” regarding the Republican Party of Pro-Death.

 

 

Nine Reasons WHY

So Trump left the G7 early. The media is asking all sorts of questions, trying to provide some mature, adult, educated meaning for his early absence, but there are truly some more relevant reasons available. I mean, come on, Media, this is the infantile TACO, Don Snoreleone Trump we are discussing.

Trump left the G7 early because:

Everyone in attendance was using words with at least two or three syllables.

Everyone was speaking in sentences and not using texts or emojis to communicate.

He ran out of his supply of Depends.

They needed a foursome at Mar-A-Lago to play golf with the Saudi Royal Family.

He needed to hawk some of his Bibles, Telephones, and Crypto on the Home Shopping Network.

The UEA had another used plane they needed to get rid of.

They ran out of Cheeseburgers and Diet Coke.

He ran out of his “uppers”.

THIS IS TRUMP, get real, MEDIA, stop pretending his departure is about anything else of importance!

  

the next step, of course

 Trump’s ICE just manhandled another Democrat: ‘What the hell is happening to this country!?’ (NJ.com)

The new American Gestapo is now identified as ICE. Papers, please. Suppose you even mutter a disagreement with the government. In that case, you will be arrested, and God forbid if you are not or never ever have been a member of the MAGA Fascist Republican Party, hands behind your back for caring about Democracy.

Sen. Mike Lee (R., Utah) removed three social-media posts mocking and blaming leftists in the wake of attacks in Minnesota that left two people killed and two others injured, after he faced backlash from Senate colleagues. ‘This is what happens when Marxists don’t get their way,’ Sen. Mike Lee said in one message. (The Wall Street Journal)

One of Trumps MAGA Senators, Lee, has decided to wear his big boy BROWN SHIRT to work from now on, and to ignore the facts (as do most MAGA asshats), and just lie about the actions of his cohorts who within the MAGA world prefer violence and murder as a means to their evil end. The douchebag Lee removed his VERY FALSE narrative but as is the case with these insecure male MAGA he lost his balls by NOT admitting that what he Tweeted was and remains blatant lies.

Chump's Change

 Senate Republicans’ plan to extract more savings from Medicaid as part of their revised tax and spending package triggered a backlash within the party, raising concerns that leaders could miss their self-imposed deadline of getting the bill to President Trump’s desk by July 4. (The Wall Street Journal)

The Republican Pro-Death Party wants more cuts to Medicaid, I suppose, desiring to kick off more, poor, elderly, disabled folks so somehow the Republicans can brag about just how many more Americans can suffer, and die. It’s always a numbers game with the Pro-Death Republicans, pretending that anyone who is not a Billionaire Puppet master is just a Liberal whose tears they just love to collect.

Not a single Pro-Death Republican Senator has even stated that by increasing the tax rates of their 1 and 2% puppet masters, that a whole lot of LESS cuts would have to arrive from Medicare. 

It’s never about hurting the Robber Barons, nope, they need their extra chump change to own and operate the Party of Republican Pro-Death Fascists. 

one more step

 ‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans. Medical staff are still required to treat veterans regardless of race, color, religion and sex, and all veterans remain entitled to treatment. But individual workers are now free to decline to care for patients based on personal characteristics not explicitly prohibited by federal law. (The Guardian)

Individual workers, as if they are not employees of the US government, are as free as they wish to discriminate against unmarried veterans and veterans who happen to be registered Democrats. It is as if the VA is some privately owned and operated division of the Heritage Foundation, or some Mega Evangelical Church outreach center.

This is just one more step beyond decency and democracy; it is one step closer to Fascism and Christian Nationalism. We cannot be silent because what will come next is a county clerk from Kentucky deciding who can and who cannot receive a marriage license? Oh, wait, that already happened.

 

Continue

 No King’s Day, let it be the beginning of real Americans speaking up and acting out against the tyranny of a wanna be King, and definitely a fool who desires to be a dictator. Take our collective energy, those of us who understand that a Felon, a Fraudster, a Liar, a Russian Asset (how else would you describe his love and admiration for Putin), a Sexual Harasser are not the qualities of a true President, nor what we expect of a person to lead a nation of WE THE PEOPLE.

We are in an uphill battle, what with a majority of Republicans in Congress, each more afraid of Trump than the other, all of whom are placing their self-preservation above and beyond the will and the good of the people, who side with evil versus the welfare of this nation.

I realize it is easier to write a Blog, hoping and wishing that democracy survives, rather than having the actual power to change the course of implementing Fascism each and every day. Still, as I see it, silence adds to the death knell of freedom.

America demonstrated its courage on No King’s Day. Now we must continue to express our disillusionment with Trump and his cadre of cowards within the Republican party, and each and every election we must vote BLUE.

Not accountable

 Trump Is Stiffing the National Guard Soldiers He Sent to L.A. As usual, Trump is refusing to foot the bill. The thousands of National Guardsmen President Trump sent to Los Angeles in an authoritarian power play are working for free. More than a dozen guardsmen told Military.com that they remain unpaid, as they have yet to receive official activation orders. Receiving such orders would allow them to receive pay, Tricare health benefits, and Department of Veterans Affairs eligibility. Without them, the troops dispatched aren’t getting anything. (The New Republic)

No surprises here, and if you are a bit shocked it is time to get all of your head out of your ass. Once again, the big spender is all talk, all huff and puff, but when the responsibility of his actions is to be accounted for, he is AWOL.

The one thing he can be counted on to never be accountable!

 

NOW THIS

 Minnesota lawmakers John Hoffman, Melissa Hortman targeted in shootings, sources say. (CBS)

And now the Brown Shirts are targeting local politicians who happen to be from the Democratic Party. In Police, Fascist nations, the only action that matters is to eradicate your enemy, and if murdering them is an option for the MAGA types in this nation, so be it.

MAGA Sheriff Issues Chilling Warning to Protesters: ‘We Will Kill You’ Brevard County’s top cop has delivered a chilling threat ahead of nationwide ‘No Kings’ rallies. (The Daily Beast)

And speaking of murder, here we have a local Sheriff, warning protestors that it will be his discretion as to what is peaceful and what he deems violent protests—judge, jury, and executioner, just like his role model, Trump.

Now, with the actions of Trump and his Gestapo becoming every day “garden variety” crimes the peons, the morons, the loathsome of MAGA seem to think that having the free reign to murder their perceived enemy has zero to no consequence.

 

The real ENEMY

 The Trump Insurrectionists are at it again, you know the guys and gals who like to remind us that they are the only true Americans, even here before the Native Americans.

Far-Right Groups Buzz With Violent Talk on How to Respond to ‘No Kings’ Protest. (The Wall Street Journal)

“No Kings Day “ is suddenly going to become a reason for the Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and their ilk of xenophobic/antisemites/homophobes/misogynists/bigots and racists to aggressively and non-peacefully wage war against peaceful demonstrations, and will be justification for Trump to order National Guard to blue cities.

“Shoot a couple, the rest will go home,” said a meme circulating on Telegram channels of groups affiliated with the far-right Proud Boys. “You just have to impale a few of them…” another local chapter posted. One disseminated an online gun tutorial, illustrating optimal shooting techniques with the caption: “Riot season again!” (The Wall Street Journal)

“Shoot a couple”, “riot season again”, and we are being told that the protestors are the enemy of the state. Hey, Trump, the real enemy of the state is your own Brown Shirts!

 

Governor Newsom

 …“Democracy is under assault right before our eyes,” Newsom said during a live broadcast with a California flag and the U.S. flag in the background. “The moment we’ve feared has arrived.”  (Los Angeles Times)

Someone with greater power and prestige than many of us has finally been brave enough to say precisely, out loud, what way too many of us have been whispering about, or those of us with less power have been shouting about. Democracy is and has been under assault, and so far, the quiet before the storm has been intense enough to deafen even the keenest of ears.

…“The moment we’ve feared has arrived.” "Trump and his loyalists thrive on division because it allows them to take more power and exert even more control," Newsom said. (Los Angeles Times)

Division, “Look Over There”, The Other, all examples of an Authoritarian, Fascist, Mad Person removing any guardrails that help a democracy thrive. Create the enemy, invent the scapegoat, define the victim, all the tenets in the playbook of a dictator. Our quiet, our silence, our head in the sand are the tools that help a Tyrant climb to power and remain in control. We must fight back, peacefully protest, because we are running out of way too many tomorrows.

 

No Kings

 As Trump melts down over L.A. protests, Americans prep for nationwide ‘No Kings’ rallies Trump already can’t handle the number of protests against him. And with this weekend’s “No Kings Day of Defiance,” it’s about to increase exponentially. (Maddow Blog)

Flag Day, Saturday, June 14, 2025, will take on a whole new meaning and remembrance for the United States and its citizens. The new name is NO KINGS DAY, and I believe that day will be the true beginning of resistance. We as Americans will find ourselves directly face to face with an Authoritarian, who will try his hardest to break our American spirit, who will abuse the power of the Presidency, and who will disguise Fascism as Democracy.

I look forward to NO KINGS DAY, but at the same time, I am cautious. Looking at LA and Trump’s true intentions to create a Police State, his penchant to create violence, then blame that violence on the use of free speech is yet one more machination from a deranged and delusional man, intent on harm, chaos, and hate. Trump is dangerous, and we must be diligent.

 

 

what, me, worry

 Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. removed all the members of a key committee that recommends vaccines, and when and how often adults and children should get them. (The Wall Street Journal)

Trump and his Brown Shirts/Gestapo love big numbers, and it seems he and his Pro-Death Republican Party want to beat the record of deaths from disease. {During Donald Trump's presidency, over 450,000 Americans died from COVID-19. This period marked the highest death toll from the pandemic in the United States.} (Scientific American)

Nothing to see here, folks, except the beginning of a death dirge, a parade of Americans denied scientific and medical knowledge, replaced with hacked science, by snake oil salesmen and women who can and will look forward to pain, suffering, death, and dying.

We knew RFK Junior was a sham, an uneducated blowhard with a worm for a brain, yet the Pro Death Republicans in the Senate, along with way too many Democrats, voted for RFK Junior to become the funeral director for America.

"Ohio"

 Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin’. We're finally on our own. This summer I hear the drummin'. Four dead in Ohio. (“Ohio”/Neil Young)

A crooked criminal President, Nixon, and his disdain for freedom of speech, what could possibly go wrong, “…Four dead in Ohio…” The Kent State shootings were the killing of four and wounding of nine unarmed college students by the Ohio National Guard on the Kent State University campus, The shootings took place on May 4, 1970, during a rally opposing the expanding involvement of the Vietnam War into Cambodia by United States military.

Forget invading Canada, or Greenland, or Panama, because Trump has his military at the ready to invade Los Angeles, now with the arrival of the Marines, the first shots have been fired in the second civil war of this nation.      LA is the first of the blue cities to be invaded; Fuhrer Trump demands zero dissidents, zero rallies, zero disruption toward his plan to Make America Fascist.

Tin soldiers and Trump’s comin’…

 

 

 

 

HIS way

We are watching the prelude to Martial Law becoming the lawlessness of the land as we gaze upon the events in Los Angeles.

 Trump Is Calling Up National Guard Troops Under a Rarely Used Law President Trump bypassed the authority of Gov. Gavin Newsom to call up 2,000 National Guard troops to quell immigration protests. (New York Times)

Why this should be of concern to any American who believes in freedom of speech and the right to protest is that by removing those guardrails, Trump is undermining the liberties that our democracy has always afforded its citizens. Trump has made it clear it is HIS WAY, or no way at all.

Governor Newsom, a Democrat, immediately rebuked the president’s action. “That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions,” Mr. Newsom said, adding that “this is the wrong mission and will erode public trust.” (New York Times)

As with all of Trump’s Fascist intentions, if he is not stopped from creating this nation in his image, he will continue until freedoms, liberties, and equalities are no longer recognizable.

 

 

  

Once again

 Ohio food banks strain as Trump slashes federal aid programs.

Ohio voted for Trump in the last three presidential elections. Trump has cut around $1 billion in programs that support food banks. Nearly one in three people in Ohio qualify for food assistance. (Reuters)

Once again, the racists, the bigots, the hateful are learning that THE OTHER is not just The Immigrant, the Female who believes it is her body, her choice, the person of Color, the Non-Christian, the LGBTQ, but in fact they, themselves.

Once again, all of the self-righteous Pro-Life hypocrites come to a realization that their Party of Republicans prefers being Pro-Death once that zygote or fetus leaves the womb.

Once again, the called Populists discover that the only important people in the population are the 1% of billionaires, and not a single person who is not.

Once again, Trump demonstrates just how low he will go to keep his wealthy donors happy, even at the cost of his own CULTISTS!

next

 ICE agents mistakenly detain U.S. marshal in Arizona. ICE agents mistakenly detain U.S. marshal in Arizona. (NBC News)

This should disturb all of us that suddenly it is what you supposedly look like that makes you deportable. It was called “papers, please,” in Nazi Germany, when the Gestapo had the authority to stop German citizens on the street, because they looked Jewish (whatever the fuck that meant.)

How do we, the people, protect ourselves from ICE when, in fact, if they so desire, they can catch and grab us as we walk down the street because of their subjectivity? 

With the Trump Dictatorship, there are fewer and fewer guardrails, preventing the members of ICE from arresting citizens without any due process or based on any substantial reasoning except what people are perceived to look like, and that what they look like is now considered an Enemy of the State.

Hypocrites...

 Sen. Eric Schmitt employs staffer linked to campaign video with Nazi imagery. Nathan Hochman was fired from Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign for promoting Nazi imagery. Now he works for a GOP senator. (Chris Hayes/MSNBC)

And the Republicans pretend they are the true party of Antisemitism. These Christian Nationalists pretending to be friends of the Jews is based on their Evangelical desire to have all Jews immigrate to Israel so they can witness their perceived Second Coming of Christ. 

From the inclusion of the Proud Boys to the Oath Keepers, it seems that the Republican Party/MAGA  speak out of both sides of their mouths regarding their ardent reminders that they and only they are the true folks to protect Jews from Antisemitic discrimination, while all the while catering to the groups of people who hate the Jews.

As an American who, among other attributes, happens to be Jewish, I grow tired of the lies, the Bull Shit, the hypocrisy of the Republicans, who will find others as enemies hoping that their plan of “LOOK OVER THERE” is strong enough to fool enough fools! The real Anti-Semites are not found on college campuses, but rather in the rank and file within the Republican Party.

 

WHY!

 Supreme Court grants Trump’s urgent bid for DOGE to have access to Social Security data The federal government had asked the justices to halt a judge’s order blocking DOGE from sensitive Social Security information. (MSNBC)

What could possibly go wrong in handing over some of the most sensitive and personal information to a bunch of unelected goons? What on Earth could DOGE need to know from our Social Security information except to use that information in nefarious and vile political means?

Imagine how, in the wrong hands, and every single member of the DOGE team is in the wrong hands, the kind of blackmail and threats could be released by the Republicans, toward the Democrat Party and Democrat Party Donors.

Except for mischief and mayhem, why would DOGE need to know personal information about anyone if the intent of DOGE is to cut bureaucratic waste? And of course, this Republican activist slew of Justices are aiding and abetting this scheme and are active participants in the fleecing of America.

 

 

Be a next time?

 In the 2024 presidential election, nearly 6 in 10 veterans supported Donald Trump, while about 4 in 10 voted for Kamala Harris. This trend reflects a consistent pattern from previous elections, where veterans have historically leaned towards Republican candidates. (PBS)

Republican lawmakers are dangling a sword over thousands of VA workers GOP lawmakers are discovering there's such a thing as asking too much of America's veterans. (Maddow Blog)

When does enough become just too much? I beg that question both with snark and a true wish for an answer. Veterans voted more in favor for Trump, as if they all were too stupid to see right in front of their faces that Trump was not then nor ever a fan of the Veteran. Yet they supported him.

Now all we hear is that just wait until next time. Well, guess what, the next time is upon us, and the consequences of irresponsible thinking, lack of vetting, or was it just stupidity and self-denial have erupted. And with the Republicans and Trump, we must ask a more important question: Will there really be a next time?
