special envoy...uh huh

 His Special Envoy was not to a foreign nation but to a neighborhood within Las Angeles, a city in a state, both of which are a part of the United States. Holiest of Fucks, this Psycho, this Criminally Insane, this Sociopath, this wannabe Dictator, will not stop until every Media outlet in this nation is under his thumb, following his orders and playing his game.

 

The Republicans tried this with Hollywood during the McCarthy era when the government pressed hard for the studios to find scapegoats, aka Communists, to make America great back in the 1950s. And fuck those studio CEO; they fell into line just as did all of Hitler’s soldiers who swore they were just following orders.

 

It was so easy for Trump to own and operate the Silicon ALLEY sycophants like Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, and the rest of the Tech Billionaires, placing their profit over people. Now, to cement Trump’s own lack of competence from being displayed via any form of Media, Trump is now placing pressure on the Hollywood Elite. And if history is anything, it is an example, and the lack of backbones and spines by the Hollywood Studios in the 50s is exactly what Trump wants now.

 

Trump has the Courts, he has the Congress, and he is now aiming at the Media, and wham bam, no thank you, ma’am, the COUP, his COUP will be complete.  And if he gets his misogynistic, alcoholic, sexual harasser, Pete Hegseth, in power, Trump will score a monopoly in keeping America a Banana Republic.

Step by step

 McCarthyism

1952 Republican Convention.

"Our job as Americans and as Republicans is to dislodge the traitors from every place where they've been sent to do their traitorous work." -Joseph McCarthy, speech before the Republican National Convention (1952)

"Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist party?"

In the 1950s, thousands of Americans who toiled in the government, served in the army, worked in the movie industry, or came from various walks of life had to answer that question before a congressional panel.

 

Donald Trump wants to make Hollywood ‘bigger, better and stronger’ and has cast Mel Gibson, Jon Voight and Sylvester Stallone as stars of what he is calling his ‘Special Ambassadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California.’ On Wednesday, the President-elect announced on his social media site that the three actors would be his eyes and ears to the moviemaking town.

An Authoritarian government and an Autocratic regime have, over time, become less reliant on violence and mass repression to maintain control. The study shows instead that authoritarians have increasingly resorted to manipulation of information as a means of control. Authoritarians increasingly seek to create an appearance of good performance, conceal state repression, and imitate democracy.

 

"Step by step, inch by inch" is a phrase from the vaudeville sketch "Slowly I Turned," where a character becomes agitated and violent when a listener inadvertently mentions a triggering word or phrase. This routine has been performed by various comedians, including Abbott and Costello and The Three Stooges, and is often associated with the phrase "Niagara Falls." 

 

Right in front of our eyes, with our eyes wide open, in daylight, no longer in the shadows, TRUMP is preparing his CORONATION, his ANNOUNCEMENT, that HE and ONLY HE will be a judge, jury, and executioner. And all I see is no one trying to stop him!

ESCAPE

 Ever since the second Reich of Trump was claimed following the November 2024, the last-ever democracy-orientated American election, I have watched the most horrendous apocalyptic-themed movies found on YouTube.

 

I don’t drink; I used to smoke pot, and I no longer do. Drugs are a part of my past, so to help find some escape from this nightmare, which has turned into a day-mare that has way too much control over my well-being, to cope with the things of which I seem to have little to no control over, yet seem to dominate my existence, I binge watch, zombie movies, alien movies, mega-earthquake movies, mega tsunami movies, and mega comet ending lives movies.

 

I know the psychological reasoning behind this, which is a form of escapism, a whole lot of phew, glad it’s not me-ism, and a secret challenge of what I would really do if I were in any of these Grade B movie scenarios. I share all of this because each and every day seems longer than the day before, more tedious and treacherous than the day before. Each day begs the question, at least for me, what will I need to do to survive this?

 

But, having vented all of that, the one thing that really bugs the shit out of me is that in most of those end of days movies, it is the President and his family who are always the first to be evacuated to safety. Somehow, we are to think that the President is of such value as to be given a second chance. Imagine that if anything apocalyptic happens, TRUMP and his Crime Family and, most likely, his Crime Billionaires would be safe and sound. The thought of that makes all of those movies even more frightening for me!

today, this happened

 Thank you, Michelle Obama, for taking a stand, not being a hypocrite, and refusing to normalize a Trump presidency.  It is about time the Democrats stop pretending that Trump is anything but a Felon, an Insurrectionist, a Fraud, and a Rapist. It is about time the Democrats let the rest of America understand that, once again, trump did not win a majority of votes. Thus, Trump does not represent the majority of Americans, and that, in fact, Trump was, is, and will remain an enemy of the people! Piss them off Michelle Obama and do not stop!

 

Israel, Hamas reach ceasefire deal to end 15 months of war in Gaza.  That is great news, and I hope this ceasefire remains in place. What really shocks me, however, is the timing of the ceasefire, I mean, Biden is still President, so most likely, this ceasefire will go down in history as a part of Biden’s administration. I must wonder how Trump feels about this, after all, Netanyahu is the “boy in Israel,” his “go-to guy,” and Netanyahu has done everything possible to make the Biden Administration look like they hate Israel. I just wonder how this was permitted to happen now!

 

Donald Trump’s Cabinet nominees for key roles in the intelligence, foreign policy, and law enforcement agencies all pledged to keep politics out of their offices amid concerns from Democrats that the president-elect will carry out his vows to go after his political enemies once in office. (CNN) Yeah, the GOP puppets pledged to keep politics out of their offices, just like The Supreme Court Jesters of Kavanaugh, Coney-Barret, and Gorsuch pledged that Roe was the law. And even if these liars place a hand on the Bible, they will, once they get nominated, explain that their pledges were taken out of context.  Oh, Dems, how many times will you wear a sign that says I am stupid!                  

To Acquiesce

 “We must acknowledge the concerning public reports against you,” Reed said. “A variety of sources—including your own writings—implicate you with disregarding the rule of law in combat, financial mismanagement, racist and sexist remarks regarding men and women in uniform, alcohol abuse, sexual assault, sexual harassment, and other troubling issues.” (The Wall Street Journal) 

One might be thinking this quote was regarding Trump, what with the disregarding of the rule of law, racist and sexist remarks, sexual assault, sexual harassment, and other troubling issues. But instead, this quote is regarding Pete Hegseth, who is almost a clone of Trump with the added alcohol abuse, for good measure.

 

The Democrats and very few of the Republicans are questioning the man who will hold a mighty essential and strategic position in the Cabinet, trying to understand how a person with such an ugly and dubious past could even or should even become Secretary of Defense…BUT THEN, AGAIN, how could such a person as Trump become President? 

 

As in ME, one must wonder how soon the Democrats will do what they do best and acquiesce.

I am with stoooopid!

 'Breach of Protocol': Senators Still Don't Have Ethics Filings From Trump Nominees

A Democratic staffer says Senate Republicans “are trying to force nominees through regardless of proper vetting.” (RollingStone)

 

Hmmmm. The Republicans and breaches of Protocol. Come on, Democrats, why all the shock and awe regarding the same OLD and TIRED tricks used by the GOP forever and ever?

 

And now we are told that two nominees for VERY IMPORTANT POSITIONS within the Trump Reich are saying that they suddenly have changed their minds on being so anti-national Security and anti-military. Tulsi Gabbard says she has changed her thoughts on handling our National Security, suddenly saying that all of the negative shit she spewed is not relevant to her new persona. And Pete Hegseth is now saying he was speaking silly things when he called our Military too woke. But these inept morons are playing the same game used and honed by previous Republican nominees before…just like the Three Stooge Justices, Trump and the Republicans nominated, Groesch, Coney-Barret, and Kavanaugh.

 

Remember when they insisted that Roe was old news? No need to worry about that.

 

So here we go ONCE AGAIN. We will have to wonder if the Democrats will wear their I AM WITH STUPID T-shirts and believe that any One of these Putin-loving, Trump-absorbed nominees is saying anything truthful!

 

I mean, they are Trump nominees. I mean, they so far have refused to submit Ethics filings. I mean, Democrats, it isn’t as if the Republicans hadn’t fucked you over in the past!     

A New Champion

 Move over, Ted (your wife is very ugly; your father was working with Castro) Cruz. Move over, Little Marco Rubio. Move over, Ms. Lindsey Lady Graham. Just when the world thought that your three men were the BIGGEST HYPOCRITES, SPINELESS, AND NO BALLS BUFFOONS, your title as Trumps major Eunuchs has been usurped by none other than Let Me Kiss Your Orange Anal Opening Markie Zuckie Zuckerberg. 

AXIOS reported that META killed its DEI hiring plans. AXIOS reported that Zuckie appeared on the Joe Rogan Podcast (nothing says insanity like Joe Rogan), saying “he’s optimistic about Trump.” “I think he just wants America to win!” A member of the META MAGA Team said on Fox News Digital that META moves “are ultimately about doing what is best for our company…”

 

With no spine, no balls, no courage, no morals, and zero values, Zuckie has demonstrated that his own self-serving needs are THE PRIORITY and that if receiving favors from a wannabe King is what it takes to do so, then count on ZUCKIE and his team of META MAGA to support a 34-count felon fraudster, rapist.

 

ZUCKIE has done a job I truly thought other men were unable to accomplish by out DOUCHING three of the GOPS Top Douchebags, Cruz, Rubio and Graham.
