Three more things Trump

 Trump doubles down on election fraud—Should Democrats worry about midterms? (Newsweek)…Umm, like duh, Democrats/Independents/American Citizens still hoping for the survival of democracy should all be worried. Trump has demonstrated his fear of actually being held accountable for each and every crime and corruption he and his ilk have committed. And Trump will do everything and anything he can to stop free and fair elections.

Trump's Name Is Currently Being Removed From The Kennedy Center. Around 3 a.m. ET on Saturday morning, workers began adding a tarp that obstructed any view of the removal of Trump’s name. (HUFFPOST)…Interesting, not surprising, however, that somewhere along the way of finally removing the name of Trump from the Kennedy Center, wham, bam, no thank you ma’am, a giant tarp had been ordered to hide the workers from taking down the name of Trump from the building. Could it be Donny’s ego being shattered, or shamed, and in his own malignant narcissistic world in which Trump lives, Trump thought if no one witnessed the removal of his name, then no one would ever know!

‘Extraordinary’: Judge demands Blanche put IN WRITING Trump’s “anti-weaponization” fund is dead. (MS NOW)…Because anyone affiliated with Trump also suffers from the TRUMP TO LIVE IS TO LIE SYNDROME, a Federal Judge had to tell the Injustice Department’s acting Attorney General that his word and the words alone from his boss Trump were not good enough and could not be trusted. A Judge had to demand that any promises or actions hinted at by Blanche and Trump to follow the law MUST be put in writing. Holy Shit, the highest Law Enforcement officer and the Commander-In-Chief are such liars that their verbal promises are meaningless. What the fuck!

 

 

there is INDEED, a there, there!

 President Trump’s advisers gathered in secret in the Situation Room without him as they struggled to handle the Epstein files scandal. On July 17, 2025, at around 6 o’clock in the evening, President Trump’s top officials filed into the White House Situation Room — the secure bunker where classified and high-stakes national security matters are discussed and decided. Now, however, Trump’s most senior advisers had gathered — without him — to figure out how to gain some measure of control over a very different kind of crisis threatening to engulf the presidency: the Epstein files. (NYT)

Nothing to see here, folks. Not a single itty-bitty bit of evidence that some horrific events took place regarding girls, regarding sexual crimes, regarding some very powerful people, including the current President of the United States. Nothing to hide, and with nothing to hide, why not go to the Situation within the White House, one of the most secure and untouchable spaces in that building, to pretend that ABSOULUTELY there is no THERE, regarding Trump and the Pedophilia related to the Epstein Files.

Vice President JD Vance took a seat at the head of the table in the John F. Kennedy Conference Room of the Situation Room complex. “This is a huge problem,” he told the group. Arrayed around him were the White House chief of staff, Susie Wiles; the White House counsel, David Warrington; the press secretary, Karoline Leavitt; the deputy chief of staff Taylor Budowich; the communications director, Steven Cheung; the deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche; the associate attorney general, Stanley Woodward Jr.; and the deputy chief of staff James Blair. Attorney General Pam Bondi and the F.B.I. director, Kash Patel, joined on speakerphone. (NYT)

NOW, not only is there no THERE, THERE regarding Trump and the Epstein criminal pedophile files, but we are also void of anyone within the Trump Reich of protecting the pedophile Trump, and his collaboration of wealthy perverts. Umm, except what we’d have cowering in the Situation Room is a cast of characters who had decided that protecting Trump is morally and ethically the correct thing to do, and while doing so, ignoring the criminality of this entire tale of pedophilia and perversion.

And yet, to this day, the Republican Party, you know the folks who swear that they are the party that supports life, that prays harder to Jesus than anyone, that will fight tooth and nail to keep transgender folks from using bathrooms, these men and women within the Republican Party STILL are fighting their hardest to keep The Trump/Epstein Files from the light of day, and still keeping the victims victimized!

 

Trump/Through the Looking Glass

 Maddening, sad when something maddening is an ongoing occurrence. Nothing is real; it is as if we all have slipped through the looking glass, as Alice had. Alice’s was a dream, ours is a nightmare. Trump remains a sick, senile, demented demon, enabled by an even more pathetic cast of Republican characters than Alice met while in her imagined Wonderland. Alice in Wonderland/Alice Through the Looking Glass were works of fiction. Living in the Time of Trump is a fact. Help!

`Have you guessed the riddle yet?′ the Hatter said, turning to Alice again. `No, I give it up,′ Alice replied: `what’s the answer?′ `I haven’t the slightest idea,′ said the Hatter. (Lewis Carroll/Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland)… Citing new talks, Trump says he has canceled strikes on Iran tonight. Backtracking again, President Donald Trump announced this afternoon he has “cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening.” (MS NOW)

‘Alice sighed wearily. `I think you might do something better with the time,′ she said, `than waste it in asking riddles that have no answers.′ (Lewis Carroll/Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland)… Trump said the Iran war was ending 16 times since March. (msn)

Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.” “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” (Lewis Carroll/Through the Looking Glass)… Trump said in a March 13 Truth Social post that Iran was "totally defeated" and said in a post the following day, "We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s military capability." He’s offered similar assessments daily since then. (POLITIFACT)

“Well, now that we have seen each other,” said the Unicorn, “if you’ll believe in me, I’ll believe in you. Is that a bargain?” (Lewis Carroll/Through the Looking Glass)… Donald Trump has declared the Strait of Hormuz 'permanently open' after secret talks with Xi Jinping, claiming the Chinese leader had agreed to stop arming Iran. (Daily Mail)

 

 

An unending bout of lies

 Trump vows U.S. military will strike Iran ‘hard’ today. (MS NOW)….Hit ‘em hard, give ‘em Hell, say it long enough, and if you click your heels three times and say Beetlejuice three times, I suppose something is gonna happen!

 Speaking to reporters about high oil and gas prices this afternoon, Trump said the U.S. has taken “millions of barrels of oil” out of Iran and that otherwise prices at the pump would be even higher. (MS NOW)…So now, it ain’t so bad regarding the price of gasoline, because as long as you use your imagination, and pretend that oodles and oodles of oil have somehow materialized in the US, the price at the pump is not really a great concern, because there is more oil than we know what to do with!

Trump said the roller-coaster stock market and record-high oil prices triggered by the war with Iran “was worth it to me” as he weighed another bombing campaign in Iran today. (MS NOW)… He has manipulated stocks he bought and sold, knowing the information in advance, because he has the power to manipulate the price of everything. Isn’t every single action this demented, malignant narcissist takes taken for only one person, and for one reason! So, let the peasants eat not even the whole piece of cake, just some leftover crumbs which have fallen from his obese waistline! 

Trump told WSJ yesterday that helicopter downing ‘wasn’t a big deal.’ (MS NOW) …Feh, as Alfred E. Neuman so proudly stated, “What me worry!” It was no big deal to Trump at the time, I believe, because if he had made it a big deal that an American helicopter flown by American troops had been attacked by an enemy, then IMMEDIATELY there should be consequences, alas alack, Trump was trying to downplay this disaster so he would not have to start his “the war is over” all over!

The ceasefire has for months existed in name only. (MS NOW). There is no ceasefire; there was a ceasefire. There is war, a war started by an insane and arrogant con artist, and now that same Con Artist can’t even sell his snake oil!

 

 

 

"Instinctively' true

 Speaker Mike Johnson says his election conspiracy theories feel ‘instinctively’ true. What we’re dealing with is a political leader who believes gut feelings are a legitimate substitute for knowledge. They are not. (MS NOW)

There is so much bull shit coming from the Republican Party (this is the true “Trickle Down” theory) that at times a person truly concerned about the future of our democracy, let alone our day-to-day existence, seems to be gasping to breathe. I know I am!

Mike Johnson is the Speaker of the House, a position our US Constitution declares is second in line to the Presidency, a position that, in normal times, every American should demand be held by an intelligent person who uses facts and truth as a basis for understanding. Now I know that we elected a Felon, a Fraud, a tax evader, a liar supreme, a man found guilty of sexual harassment, so the standard for choosing some of the most powerful people in the United States has certainly been demeaned, dropped, and deluded, so why should anyone be surprised that the Speaker of the House, MAGA Mike Johnson, be any different?

What I see is a foreshadowing of a very insidious and sinister plan to try and maintain Fascism as the form of government in America, and means by which, the Republican Party with the help of each and every Right-Wing Domestic Terrorist Media, hope to use this tool of deceit to brainwash, the already brain dead MAGA morons, to consider that the one person one vote method of our democracy is no longer good for America! 

Trump is still touting his conspiracy theories of the 2020 election, knowing that if he can keep that lie alive, just how much easier it will be to convince his cultists, who, like Mike Johnson, instinctively feel that if Republicans do not succeed at the ballot, then of course our system of Democracy is rigged.

The signs are no longer hidden, the intentions no longer covert. Even though it might look like the potential of a Blue Wave for the Midterms in November, the Trump Reich is presenting their war plans to keep Trump as King, and of course, out of jail. 

I seriously want to know: how can we stop this NOW from ever coming to fruition?

 

 

 

 

Be aware NOW

 The media has to up its game for an election that Trump desperately wants to undermine. (MS NOW)

Trump is making it very clear that he intends to do everything and anything within his power as President to disrupt the Midterm elections. He will also try some tricks which have no basis in law or under the adage of Executive powers, because the one reality Trump does embrace is that if the Democrats take the majority in Congress, ALL of the Trump crimes will be investigated.

Because of his narcissistic machinations, the one thing Trump relies on is projecting his intentions. He can hardly help but admit his next nefarious plans, because by doing so, he can brag aloud. Perhaps it soothes his fragile and disjointed ego and permits him to admit out loud just how evil his intentions truly are.

From Trump’s personal attorney, Todd Blanche, not ruling out the idea that ICE might be sent to polling places come November, to Trump’s continuous rants about the rigged 2020 election, to Trump’s newest crusade insisting that the California Governorship and LA mayoral races are Left Wing ANTIFA plots against anyone in Trump’s orbit, DonOLD is setting the stage for direct involvement in destroying whatever bit of democracy remains as the November 2026 Midterms arrive.

It is almost too late, even now, to stop the domestic terroristic attempts by Trump and his Republican Fascists from fueling a very bleak and frightening attempt to banish free and fair voting in America, but I believe there is time enough to try and put in place some fail-safe measures to stop Trump from stealing the elections.

We must not just whisper about Trump’s desire to remain in power and avoid jail, but we must be LOUD and demand that actions be taken to inform the voting public, that the only thing rigged regarding the Midterms, will be the action taken by Trump and his Reich!

 

Trump's Fragile Masculinity

 Fragile Masculinity and Hypermasculine Defenses. How men use hypermasculine defenses to protect a fragile sense of masculinity.

Masculinity is something men may feel they have to earn and then constantly defend. Some men develop hypermasculine defenses to avoid being perceived as feminine, i.e. not masculine. Hypermasculine defenses reflect insecurity about masculinity. (Psychology Today)

 From saying, "when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. ... Grab 'em by the pussy." From “piggy” to “ugly” to “obnoxious,” the president has lobbed insults at women questioning him. One might rightly conjecture that he is quite insecure about his masculinity.

Now we have a UFC battle on the White House lawn, a sport where the goal to become champion is to beat up your opponent, demonstrating who IS the real alpha male. Kind of like the Caesars of Rome, who had to convince their citizens that having Gladiators surrounding them made them stronger male leaders! And as if grabbing women and insulting their looks or personality is not enough of a demonstration by the very insecure Trump, we have his comments on how hot some male physiques are:

“Look at this guy over here. I don’t know who the hell he is, but he is one hell of a specimen. This guy, this is one hell of a physical specimen,” Trump quipped, sitting next to the former NFL player.  (Donald Trump) “I thought I was big until I met you, Joe, you know,” he told Thomas. “Fantastic, that’s what I like.” (Donald Trump) "I forgot to touch his leg. I didn't want to do that. But I can tell you one thing: His leg is like a rock," Trump said. "Two gold medals, wow." (Donald Trump regarding Olympian speed skater Jordan Stolz)

I do not believe Trump is a homosexual; I believe, however, that Trump is not certain himself just how much of a red-blooded heterosexual male he is. He fears strong females; he loves being in the company of hot, strong men, which I believe just proves how inadequate a male he finds himself.

Oh yeah, can you imagine how BIZZURK the MAGAS and the Republican Man-O-Sphere would become if any Democrat male politician made the same adoring comments regarding the same sex!
