His Get out of jail fee offer

“I’LL PARDON EVERYBODY!” — Trump Promises Cabinet Get Out of Jail Free Card. (Substack).

Well, if it wasn’t blatant enough that the entire Trump Administration is nothing but a Cabal of Crime, I suppose this latest bit of truth falling from the sinister lips of Trump is just a bit of reinforcement. Nothing says it’s legal what my sycophants and I are doing to destroy America, American democracy, and our Constitution, then admitting out loud, that he, as Emperor, will let his goons be free to commit fraud, crime, murders, rape, and pillaging, because as Emperor, he has the magic “GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD!”

There are a few things regarding our Constitution that I have always questioned, such as why there are lifetime terms for Federal Judges and the Supreme Court. How it is that the Legislature, which has the power to change how dark money advances, how much salary they receive,  and when they can just abandon their duties and leave Congress if some of them do not wish to take on difficult policies that affect their voters, and the power to stop the amount of profit they make from Lobbyists. And why is it up to these Legislators to decide if they should also have term limits?

I also wonder why there is no official legislated code of ethics for the Supreme Court. I wonder why there is no real demand that anyone sitting in the President's Cabinet actually have prior job experience to become a Secretary of each and every department for which they are chosen.

I wonder why there is no law that any elected official, before taking office, must take the same exam required of new US citizens?

And lastly, why is it that one person, just a mere human, who is identified as President, permitted to be judge and jury, God and King, and PARDON whoever the fuck they want to, based on nothing but their own interpretation of morals and values, or in the case of Trump his lack of morals and values.

 

  

Happy days are here again!!!!!!

 WELL NOW, that was easy breezy, no longer anything to worry about, or to see, let alone be bothered with.

After announcing a ceasefire in the weekslong war with Iran, President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared that the U.S. had emerged victorious. When Trump declared April 7 that the U.S. would suspend bombing Iran for two weeks to allow for negotiations, he said the U.S. had "already met and exceeded all military objectives." "Total and complete victory. 100%. No question about it," Trump told Agence France-Presse. Hegseth was similarly triumphant. "Operation Epic Fury was a historic and overwhelming victory on the battlefield, a capital-V military victory," he said during an April 8 Pentagon press conference. "Epic Fury decimated Iran's military and rendered it combat-ineffective for years to come. (PBS)

The 34-Count Felon, the man whose name appears in the Epstein files at least 3000 times, who insists he never knew Epstein,  the guy who swore he won the 2020 election, the guy who asked Russia if they are listening, who calls his association with Russia a Hoax, the guy who told his cultists there would be no new wars, and who promised his bigoted fans that grocery prices would immediately come down on day in office, the guy who told his MAGA base “America First,” has just declared “Total and complete victory. 100%. 

No mention that the Strait of Hormuz had been open and free to transport shipments before He decided to declare war. Still tons of unenriched uranium in Iran. Still a hostile and hardline regime in power. Still, Iranian-sponsored terrorist groups are running wild. Higher gasoline prices at the pump than before he declared war. But in the land in which Trump lives, and is enabled to live by his Republican enablers, I guess the Iran War is over. Also, if a war is over, why would there be a ceasefire? Isn’t a ceasefire put in place to hopefully negotiate the end of a war?

But I guess this all TRUE, because Trump’s Ken Doll, Pistol Pete, the American Christian Crusader, repeated his idol’s word salad, saying, “a capital-V military victory,"

Gee, happy days are here again!

 

 

 

 

 

Another day in Amerika

 Is there a ceasefire, or not, but whatever there is that is occurring in the Middle East, I know that had Trump not started a war, in which he was certain his box of toy soldiers could finish in mere hours, no questions would have to be asked about whether today is the last day of our lives.

I have learned that Jared Kushner, who has no top-secret credentials to his name but is, of course, the son-in-law of the Felon Trump, sat in the Situation Room at the White House with the Israeli military espionage team, some members of the US intelligence team, and Trump. Kushner is in a billion-dollar partnership with the Saudi’s and the guy who wants to build condos in Gaza.

Even as the Republicans remain on their VACATION, they are praising Trump as a great dealmaker for agreeing to the 10-point Iranian-written ceasefire plan. The Republicans, of course, prefer the extension of their political careers above and beyond the future of a safe and free American Democracy, so they praise Trump for, in fact, making things worse in Iran than they were before his war of ego!

It seems the markets rise and fall, with the two-day, ten-day, two-week extensions that Trump suddenly comes up with, leaving one to wonder just how much inside trading is going on and who is profiting from this trump scheme.

There will never be a 25^th Amendment to remove Trump from office, because his Cabinet members understand that they would be vulnerable for their own crimes of fraud, accommodating the pedophiles in the Epstein Files, and for some, their own sexual crimes.

And here we are, living in America, Thursday, April 9, 2026, and absolutely nothing seems to matter, because if those who could make things matter did so, they would do so by enraging the wrath of America’s dictator, Trump. 

GASLIGHTING

 The theme of the movie Gaslight revolves around psychological manipulation and emotional abuse, specifically how a husband attempts to drive his wife into questioning her own sanity. This manipulation is exemplified through tactics that sow doubt in her perception of reality, highlighting issues of power and control within relationships. (goldenageofdetectivefiction.com)

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation where one person causes another to question their own reality, perceptions, or memories, often leading to confusion and self-doubt. It typically involves persistent denial, misdirection, and undermining the victim's confidence in their own judgment. (Merriam-Webster)

Ken Doll Pete Hegseth told reporters and the American public that it was Trump’s ability at the art of the deal to create this ceasefire. Trump scared the Iranians into implementing a 10-point deal, which actually creates more autonomy, financial gain, and ownership of the Strait of Hormuz. Victory is ours, continued Ken Doll Hegseth, because the war that Trump created has almost ended, because the Iranians demanded more authority than they ever had before.

Karol-lying Leavitt continued on with how great Trump was to end a war, the one he started, and that anyone who has anything negative to say about Trump is a domestic terrorist. Her cross hanging around her neck, however, did not burst into flames, so I suppose that was a good thing for her.

The fools following FOX, I sadly believe, that Trump could claim victory, without ever acknowledging the fact that by declaring victory, it is Iran’s victory to be celebrated, but the same peons, imbeciles, and racists that voted for Trump, have no use for truth. And even though they are still on vacation, the Republicans in Congress are salivating out loud, screaming that it was Trump who won.

Another day in America, another successful attempt at GASLIGHTING!

 

What remains

 Tuesday night, April 7, 2026, I waited, I resisted watching the TV, even logging on to my social media, it was about 8:30, and hearing no air raid sirens, observing no zombies running amok, I slowly but surely approached my computer, and much to my relief, I discovered that the Mad Man, in the United States White House, did not light the fuse to set off a World War. No hyperbole on my part but, but the rantings and ravings of a cornered rat with the power to say to the world BOOM, scared me.

Wednesday, April 8, 2026, I waited once again; it was difficult not to rush to my favorite Free Press outlets to hear the latest on what mayhem Trump might have begun again, but I decided that whatever would be reported on at 8:00 in the morning would most likely have changed direction and meaning at 8:05 in the morning. Again, no air raid sirens or zombies running amok, I mistakenly thought, hmm, maybe something good has happened.

It is now 5:09 on Wednesday, April 7, 2026, and sadly, there is no real ceasefire. There is no end to the war, and still sitting in the most powerful seat of government in the entire world, remains Donald J. Trump.

The Strait is still closed; before Trump’s war, it was open. The decimated Iranian Military still maintains control of the Strait. The nuclear-grade uranium is still located in Iran. 1300 Troops still remain dead, and hundreds of other Troops still remain injured. The Uranian regime may have changed names, but its hardcore dictatorship is even more entrenched in power. Oil prices remain high, and Congress, led by the Republican majority, remains on vacation.

The good news is that an ancient civilization is still somewhat intact. The bad news, at least for me, is that Trump remains in power, and now instead of a few hours wondering if the world as we know it will end, we have TWO WEEKS. How in the fuck should this be the new normal!

In the meanwhile

 As Trump, the crazy, batshit crazy, demented self-appointed demagogue says ‘A whole civilization will die tonight,’ Trump says as deadline for Iran deal nears. (MS NOW).

Here is what is happening: The Senate, lacking leadership from John Thune (R), and the House, lacking leadership from MAGA Mike Johnson (R), are still on their self-declared, very much needed and earned Spring Break. Neither is due to return to work until April 14! In other words, I guess they can use the excuse that since they were away, they had nothing to do with Trump blowing up the world.

The Vice President, Just Dance Vance, is trying to prop up Viktor Orban's popularity. Viktor Orbán has been described as an autocrat by various human rights organizations and EU reports, which accuse his government of undermining democratic norms and creating an "electoral autocracy" in Hungary. Orban is one of Trump’s idols. Vance is not in Ukraine trying to support its democratically elected President Zelensky. 

The Military leadership is going ahead with Trump’s plan to commit war crimes, I suppose, using the Nazi military excuse that “we were just following orders!”

Wannabe GI Joe Doll, Hegseth, is already announcing great military victory, puffing his pathetic emasculated out, and the Trump Cabinet of Clowns is doing their best cheerleading machinations possible.

And, we and the rest of the world must sit and wait to see if the Madman Trump, who can never, ever admit to making any mistakes or committing any crimes, will, this time, finally be told NO, you fuckwad, NO!

A GRAVE situation

 Trump Threatens ‘A Whole Civilization Will Die Tonight' If Deal Not Reached With Iran. In one of his gravest threats yet, the president said he will decimate Iran's people if a deal isn't reached to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. (HUFFPOST)

Trump thinks that Iran is the city of Minneapolis, and that he can send in his ICE agents to create a new landscape of law and order. Trump thinks this way because so far, Congress, the supposed Legislative Branch of the government, has done zero, zilch, nadda, nothing to prove Trump wrong.

The world, yes, the world, along with Americans who are not members of the MAGA, Christian Nationalist Crusaders, watch, and wait, wondering if this senile, demented, deteriorating, douchebag of a President will actually set the world on fire or not. This is not hyperbole on my part; it is, I hope, hyperbole on behalf of Trump, but words matter, and his words are dangerous!

I was 13 years old, and remember too well, my parents insisting that my siblings and I sit together in our living room to watch Walter Cronkite of CBS, speak to America, about what might be an oncoming few hours of deadly destruction. It was the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Walter Cronkite addressed the Cuban Missile Crisis and the situation in Cuba during a televised broadcast on October 22, 1962, when President Kennedy announced the naval blockade of Cuba. This event was a significant moment in television history, marking a critical point in U.S. relations with Cuba.

I remember my father looking ashen; my father, the policeman who always seemed to be the bravest person I knew, looked worried as Cronkite spoke about the potential for chaos unimagined. I did not truly know the meaning of the phrase “a grave situation,” but I felt the weight.

So, here I find myself once again, waiting, worried, wondering, will this maniac Trump, who lacks any emotion except what’s best for his ego, be just bull shitting, or begin an action which will ignite the world on fire!
