FACT

Trump does not give a shit! FACT: The MAGA minions have no idea that a partial shutdown, a semi-partial shut down any government shut down affects their lives, because cave living requires enough cable to watch FOX New/pay your NRA membership/display your Nazi or Confederate regalia! FACT: To temp Trump and challenge his preschool mind, his narcissistic neurotic tendencies a waste of time FACT: When Trump shouts out proudly that people with any bills should not worried about being paid, that IS because he never worries about paying the bills owed to people that have worked for him FACT: The threat of a National Emergency looms large, because for both Trump and his Republican Enablers and many blackmailed Republican leadership, the only way out, in the art of saving face from the MAGA Minions, is to negotiate NO deal, just slap this nation with one more costly mishap and inept action by both Trump and McConnell! FACT:

But the real FACT of the matter, and one the News Outlets and the overly paid Talking Heads NEVER discuss is that if enough Republican Senators join in with the Democrats, they can vote on the House version of re-opening all of the rest of the departments of the Government and decide to FOR ONCE have a real debate regarding IMMIGRATION once and for all…ALL the while not punishing the lives, livelihood, and longevity of the citizens of this nation. Trump, believes he is King, truly an Emperor similar to his friends in Russia, Turkey Saudi Arabia, North Korea, and China to just name a few…Trump believes through the dark tunnels of a mentally ill mind, that HE can be judge and jury of the fate of America…the FACT is most of the time because Mitch McConnell is also under the thumb of Putin and the wealthy donor class of families like the Mercer’s and the Koch Brothers, the Republican anarchist, McConnell could give a shit about the welfare of America…

So far, in this land, and until the National Emergency is called and then it becomes an act of Martial Law (once the real facts are made public about Trump’s Crime Family Collusion with the Russians), the Senate with enough sane votes can veto any President’s irrational and paranoid actions. The FACT is, that if the Republicans in the Senate still have access to their backbones and spines, all of this shutdown shit can end. 

And a few more FACTS: Food Assistance will end, more than 800,000 Americans will be left to beg, borrow or steal just to pay rent, mortgage, health care, groceries, we will once again have to fly at our own risks, because the staff to either check us out as we wait in line will be scarce, and the men and women who double check the safety of actually being in the air are furloughed. FACT: Trump flies one Airforce One, Trump has his own security, Trump's kids have the use of federal security when they travel, and Trump as Executive can stand on the balcony of the White House and shout let them eat cake, while he wines and dines on safety and security. FACT: all it takes is the GOP Senators to become real people, and not the POD PEOPLE that Trump and his MAGA minions and Putin have made them be. It is that easy…but the FACT is, anything done with value, morals, and freedom is HARD if you are a Republican politician!

Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty is a character in an English nursery rhyme, probably originally a riddle and one of the best known in the English-speaking world. He is typically portrayed as a personified egg, though he is not explicitly described as such.

The riddle probably exploited, for misdirection, the fact that "humpty dumpty" was also eighteenth-century reduplicative slang for a short and clumsy person. The riddle may depend upon the assumption that a clumsy person falling off a wall might not be irreparably damaged, whereas an egg would be.

Show and tell time, at the Border, today, dressed in his either, let’s throw rolls of paper towels to flooded Puerto Ricans, or claiming that Republican Governor Greg Abbott has handled the entire hurricane with superpowers, or the same kind of outfit, sans a bomber jacket when Mr. Bone Spurs declared he would make a great General (To make another point, this casual, why I could even play a round of golf outfit, was not worn when he reluctantly visited then Democrat Governor Jerry Brown to declare that if soil management had been handled in a more effective manner, wildfires would not have happened.) 800,000 Americans either working without pay or furloughed, finally the Republican exploitative phrase of Trickle Down is working, as all of the suppliers to the government, all of the neighborhood shops and businesses are feeling the lack of income and they too are laying off more Americans. Soon Food Assistance money will dry up, so who really needs three meals a day, let alone one…and just as Putin would want as a belated birthday gift, money for the FBI and their ability to search for and arrest REAL terrorists will also fade into the sunset.

BUT, some dumb shits, manipulated by the cartoon characters of anyone representing FOX News, or the Christian Crusaders identifying themselves as Christian Evangelicals wishing and hoping for both a Theocratic American Government and the RAPTURE, the KKK, White Supremacists, the greedy guys and gals at Facebook interested in profit over people, and your common every day “wannabe” needing a scapegoat for their own miserable and less productive lives, wearing MAGA hats instead of Swastikas’  and the GOP paid in great amounts of Oligarch Rubles, decided that all the proof they needed to elect in to office was a Humpty Dumpty…no proof of ability, accomplishments, mental health, morals or values…just enough balderdash and con artistry to provide smoke and mirrors.

Immigration, you want to discuss it, do so as a mature person, not an egg easily cracked…open the government…then if you are the great Deal Maker, make a deal, not one where HOSTAGES are used as leverage, but one in which wit, intelligence, savvy and sophistication and real concern for America are your tools!

brevity, briefly

Just a bit of political brevity on a day which has proven once again that not everyone could or should be President… A reporter caught poor Little Marco Rubio in the hallways of the Senate (I think Royal Palace might be a better term, being that the White House might as well be called a Castle)…Little Marco, who was suddenly stuck in front of two cameras, not knowing exactly which one had the little red light reminding you to look this way, was dodging his eyes left and right, and even though it was color TV I could watch the whiteness wash away to a hazy shade of pale! It was then that it dawned on me, that Little Marco looked like Senator Susie (I want to be just like Aunt Bea from Maybury) Collins…but without her usual pearl necklace and matching earrings…

The reporter had the audacity to ask Little Marco a simple “yes” or “no” question, honestly, the worst kind of question this so-called Senator (Florida, oh Florida, you have such awful taste in electing your Senators and Governor) could or would answer…because Little Marco has no mind of his own, that (his mind) is owned by his puppet master donors, so putting Little Marco on the spot is SCARY…(Not as SCARY as Trump trying to read a teleprompter, but frightening in its own way) The Reporter asked Little Marco do you agree that the Government shutdown should be based on Trump’s insistence that 5 billion dollars be spent on THE WALL. Then like a dear in the headlights, you could actually see Little Marco squirm, see the fine lines of sweat drip down his already pale as chalk face, he inhaled (not the kind of snort that Trump does)…and you could see Little Marco try hard not to run away…And just like Susie (call me Aunt Bea of Maybury) Collins…Little Marco responded with his now patented NO comment, COMMENT…”I will have to see the facts”. Huh! At least 800,000 workers with no paychecks, Food Assistance about to end…TSA workers calling in sick…and a Trump tantrum followed by a Trump I will hold my breath to spite you reaction…and this Little Marco DOUCHEBAG Rubio responds with “I will have to wait and see the facts”  How in the Hell, except for the fact that we do permit the most stupid of people to vote do we get Rubio, Collins, and Trump…oh I know, they are Republicans…duh!

Scare Tactics

On Tuesday, January 8, 2019… I discovered a few tidbits, which absolutely confounded me and I must admit threw away a lot of information I once relied on a truth… First, I thought the TV Show “Scare Tactics”, which had recently been hosted by Tracy Morgan, stopped production, and secondly I always assumed, not assumed, but knew that Tracy Morgan was of African American descent. Lo and Behold, I tune in to MSNBC and watch this Orange overly ripe piece of flesh sitting behind a desk, with spooky pictures of a female who illegally came to this nation and a man who was a Nazi sympathizer, in the background, with ghostly traces of a suspicious white powder under his eyes, using a )“look I am a big boy now, I can read words from a teleprompter”) sharing some of the greatest campfire stories of horror and terror with the viewer. (All I needed was a clap of thunder to find a blanket and hide beneath). “Scare Tactics”, who knew that show about make-believe monsters and creatures was on TV again, in Prime Time.

Then, as if a white or orange kind of white Tracy Morgan was not enough, I also discovered that Russia is not located near Eastern Europe and parts of Northern Asia, but in Central America! Holy Shit, all these years and I believed I knew my geography really well… The Orange Tracy Morgan, kept on reciting stories of terrorists, rapist, enemies of the state boggy men, out to eat or kill or ravage Mom and Pop American…the reality, however, during the reign of Trump is that all of those BAD PEOPLE, Trump described, the majority come from Russia…UMMM, so either, Russia is now located in Central America, or all those Russians take a boat or plane fly to El Salvador and cross illegally at our now INFAMOUS Southern Border!

An finally, well, not finally but just to get this bit of shit off my mind…I had no idea that the Russian word OLIGARCH, translates to the word TERRORIST when spoken in English…All Trump could do is speak about terrorists…it seems those are the guys like every Russian Oligarch who has tried to provide, Donnie Trump Senior, Don Jr, Paul Manafort, Michael Cohen, Jerome Corsi, Michael Flynn and his Son with bribe money so they could indeed declare war on our democracy, using the threat of blackmail instead of weapons as a terrorist act against this nation… It was quite the night of re-education on Tuesday, January 8, 2019…Re-education, wait didn’t that happen in the book Nineteen-Eighty Four!

We felt compelled to watch Joe and me, maybe a little safer because it was, after all MSNBC and the Talking Heads was not as scary as and more familiar. For a flash of a second, I recalled my family sitting in front of the TV to hear Walter Cronkite quietly introduce JFK, informing us that war with Russia might be emanating because the US had decided to begin a blockade of Cuba…but I was much younger then, and could not quite grasp why how and politics and politicians plotted and planned. Then to my amazement, the camera quickly framed a thing looking like a combination of Jabba the Hutt and the Crypt Keeper, sitting, with its hands folded, moving thin lines which I soon discovered were a form of lips and words were slowly dripping out of its mouth slowly and slowly as what I suppose was a teleprompter slowly and slowly most likely in phonics prepared the lies to be told. I knew this thing speaking was not an actual demon, because, most films about possession and the Devil, underscore the very black eyes (black orbs to be exact) of the Devils Disciples, and this combo of Jabba the Hutt and the Crypt Keeper only had tiny slits, covered with a white substance (and from the amount of sniggling and inhaling one might have assumed it was cocaine, or crushed Adderall  perfectly placed to disguise the fat balls under eye protrusion and readily available for a quick snort!  This thing was frightened, it seemed caged, and the viewer (at least me) was hoping someone with a very strong syringe of tranquilizer was standing out of sight. Immediately, I understood, I was privy to a MAGA rally paid for by my tax dollars…and just as immediate, I became enraged, that this creature still held the power to incite riots, restrict the human condition, and lead this nation to rot and ruin…The longer this thing spoke, the less sense he made and the slots for eyes grew so thin, one might have considered he was asleep! And, 800,000 Americans are still working for free, families still separated, and the Customs Border Control Agents are still “just following orders”

Just as the camera panned in, for a final shot of your worst nightmare…we were suddenly introduced to Herman and Lily Munster, but this time, the cameraperson took us from afar and slowly introduced us to the Munster family standing as if they just watched Rosemary’s Baby and figured out who was the real father of the baby! The words made more sense, but the expressions made it difficult to listen to what was being spoken. There was compassion, there was conscience, and there were honest to God (not the God Sarah HUCKABEE Sanders, or Mike Pence or Jerry Falwell Jr, pretend to adore) FACTS…The Munster’s lightened up a bit, so their message resonated with more reason and rational…and America was provided with a choice…empathy, intelligence, compassion OR part of Putin’s plan to manipulate his puppet, so afraid that FINALLY ALL of the criminal acts committed by this Jabba the Hutt/Crypt Keeper, could be believed and remain sitting in the Oval Office.

So far no declaration of National Emergency…but desperate creatures, especially those trapped in corners act out in ways no normal person might ever conceive…Guilty creatures only want punishment for their perceived enemies…and Con Men never EVER give up the GAME!

Tonight, American taxpayers will be paying for the Trump/Pence ad campaign for a 2020 second term bid to ruin America for another 4 years. This important message will be nothing but lie, and feckless let alone fact less pandering to a base of MAGA men and women too stupid to understand that the man they adore is committing treason and is a criminal, and at a whim will deny his MAGA minions any freedoms, he deems necessary to become King! Also, tonight, the American citizen will witness, as if it was a made for television, a reset of the days when Hitler, declared Emergency powers toward his paranoid enemies, and his true intention of destroying German democracy and installing a Fascist Government, in plain sight.

Tonight, lies will be told as if they were real, when questioned about their authenticity we will be lectured that we all have our own version of facts, when that comment is questioned…the final solution…oops I mean the final response will be you either love America and believe Trump or you hate America and listen to the Democrats…

History prepared us for this, yet somehow we respect history as if it was a fable invented by fools, taught by idiots…be afraid, and if you are not be prepared for YOUR freedoms and equality to evaporate…and one more caution…this IS exactly the way Putin planned it…civil unrest, martial law, and the end of the Pursuit of happiness for what he sees as hapless Americans!

Tonight

Pompous, pious, pitiful with pitchfork for a perfect portrait of evil, the guy with the initials of POTUS, not the standards, the experience, nor the intelligence, will pretend that America must be alarmed because, somewhere from beyond our Southern Border, tides of terrorists are awaiting word to invade and envelope this nation, and will indeed wash away our WHITENESS, our clean CAUCASIAN Christian communities scorching our Earth, turning not only its landscape but its people’s ethnicities BROWN.

If he follows a well-worded propaganda piece of sheer bull shit, prepared and peppered by such illustrious bigots as Stephen Miller, or offspring of felons, Jared Kushner, peppered with just enough Robert E. Lee and David Duke, combined with hints of Hannity, Ingraham and the cartoon characters known as FOX and Friends, the round orb, looking like an anal opening will sprout stylish versions of red, white and blue, but all painted with the most heinous lies, and innuendo of hate. If he, as he tells us, uses his brain, because THAT BRAIN IS the most comprehensive, and intelligent kind created by God (not certain with name his Devil goes by), America will witness a flying of hands, tiny thumbs trying to touch even tinier fingers, a rise of a reddish orange trying to overtake a mysterious white substance placed under his thick and sagging puffs sacks holding up his snake-like eyes. More lies will be spread, fictitious numbers will fall like the acid rain of a nuclear winter, and we as a country may be threatened that in his mind the so-called POTUS, has imagined a National Emergency! 

He has demanded at least 15 minutes of air time to educate the population on a make-believe bogyman, which in reality was created from an imagined promise to a mass of men and women who must FEAR first, HATE second, and never blame themselves for their own failures. I am old enough to have watched as the Commander-In-Chief has informed us of naval blockades, deaths of Civil Rights Leaders, the promotion of wars…tonight, however, I am about to watch and listen as a man with NOTHING inside his body, an empty insecure shell of a what might be considered human, continues to deconstruct our democracy, and how easily, the demise of my nation may implode and become extinct. I am afraid…different kind of fear I have felt since Putin placed Trump in power…but a kind of horror that comes from a nightmare, from which I may never wake up!
