Male mayhem

 2 U.S. troops killed in Jordan and 1 missing after Iranian attacks, CENTCOM says. A senior Iranian official told MS NOW that the memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and Iran is “no longer valid” after days of fighting. (MS NOW)

Nothing to worry about, just a few more deaths and tons of casualties, but the real issue concerning Pistol Pete Hegseth is just how macho his male Troops are and exactly how low their T-cell count is!

The Trump Iran War is just so yesterday, the real priority for the Secretary of WAR, is that his BOYS in Uniform are rough, tough, and jacked enough, so Pistol Pete can demonstrate to the world that the American Military of He-Men, herculean in stature, examples of course of the kinda machismo male Pistol Pete yearns to be.

The billions of dollars a day that the Trump Iran War continues, causing death and destruction, has become too boring, taking too long, consuming too much PR time, from the real purpose of American military concerns, that of keeping the “sissies,” the “effeminate”, and lady men out of serving this nation. 

When insecure men, self-loathing males, and inadequate guys find themselves in positions of power, they fear that all of their own weaknesses will be discovered, and as the cowards they are, these dudes try their hardest to hide their own inadequacies.

And here we are, America, entrenched in a war with absolutely no plans, no exit strategies, just people leading the way, like Bone Spur Trump, and I Am Man, Hegseth, growing tired of the mess they started.  And, oh yeah, so far, the people in Congress who have the power to actually change the trajectory of this malicious machination sit quietly as more people die.

 

 

It's more than maddening

 US military says 2 troops are dead and 1 is missing after Iran attacks a base in Jordan. (AP News)

 But undeterred, not bothered, and of course having lost interest in the Trump/Iran War… Trump Heads to Golf Club, FIFA Events as Iran Conflict and High Prices Persist. 

Kentucky politicians continue to demand transparency regarding U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell's health and recovery following his June 14 hospitalization. (courier journal). Mind your own business, people of Kentucky. -Your 8 Term Senator, yep, that is 32 years- Kentucky King’s life or death is far from your concern. You may think he works for you, but to do so just makes you an idiot as far as his family, staff, and Republican Party are concerned.

“Donald Trump’s disastrous makeover of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is weathering yet another blow. The peeling of the lining on the iconic Washington fixture was not the work of vandals, as Trump has claimed, but rather the result of a botched repair job, several experts have told The Washington Post.” (The Daily Beast)

But none of that matters because Trump needed a scapegoat, and he used one of his favorite FOX TV personalities, Judge Jeanine Pirro, to ask a grand jury in D.C. to indict a former Olympic canoeist on Thursday for vandalizing the newly refurbished Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Nothing is ever Trump’s fault, and he has a cadre of clowns to make certain no finger of guilt is ever pointed at him.

Just another day in the life of America and Americans this Saturday, July 18, 2026. A war costing billions of dollars and thousands of lives ended. A political party playing God, deciding who is alive and who is dead. Millions of dollars for a vanity project were wasted. We, the people, find ourselves as captives to a Mad House of Politicians, who, so far, have paid no consequences for their maddening actions. When does this shit ever end?

 

 

The fools, at it again

 Trump joins Republicans calling to punish Canada for hazardous wildfire smoke in the U.S. The president threatened to levy additional tariffs, while four House Republicans appeared to allude to Trump’s threat to annex the country. (MS NOW)

WHAT! HUH! Yep, the nonsense and continuous hypocrisy flow steadily from Trump and his Klan of MAGA politicians. These same Republicans, who have denied climate change, call anyone caring about the horrific consequences that carbon-based energy products have caused “Libertards,” now suddenly pretend that the nature-based human-created crisis in Canada is an attempt to hurt the USA and was and is avoidable.

COME ON! On June 4, 2026, Trump identified himself as “champion of clean coal.” Coal is not clean, and Trump only called it so because he received the "Undisputed Champion of Coal" award. And the lobbying efforts by the Coal Industry are widespread. Also, Trump has made clear that he hates Wind Turbines, because Trump has also received lots and lots of bribe money from the Oil Industry.

So now, once again, as if having the war in Iran continue, the price of gasoline and grocery prices are higher and higher, inflation uncontrollable, the Epstein Files not released, ICE still murdering people in the streets of America were not pressing issues, Trump and his dip shit, gerrymandered MAGA Republicans decide to attack Canada.

I wish that I could look at this latest fomenting of Republican bull shit as just stupid stuff, but to do so would be ignoring the fact that the President and the Majority Party in the Congress have the power to actually do something substantial regarding Climate Change, but instead prefer to act the fool.

 

 

 

He has warned us...

 I could not witness the Trump tantrum on Thursday, July 16, 2026. It is not comical to watch Trump lie, and lie again, and try his best to nullify any and all democratic policies which have, until Trump’s current election, been the backbone of American democracy. I know that Trumps intention was not to speak to people like me, those of us who seek truth and avoid fiction, but his truest motivation was to talk directly to the ilk of people who stormed the Capitol on January 6^th, those who believe that FOX TV tells the truth, and those people, who believed that Haitians were eating cats and dogs in Springfield, that Obama is not an American citizen, and that there is actually an ANTI FASCSIST organization that wants to fight Fascism as if fighting Fascism is a bad thing for this country.

The thing about Trump that I believe is very evident, due to his mental illness, suffering as a malignant narcissist, is the fact that Trump must project the actions he has been involved with by accusing others of each and every criminal and corrupt action he has taken himself. 

I also STRONGLY believe that Trump is quite aware of the heinous, hideous, and criminal activities he has done from his involvement with the Epstein girls, to defrauding the American public, to being a puppet for Putin. And I do believe that the fear of finally being held accountable for those decisions will come to the fore if, in fact, the Democrats take the majority in both Houses of Government. 

Trump feels he must remain King and maintain his surfs (those in the Republican Party in Washington), because losing that power would lead to a rapid decline for Trump.

Trump has finally provided Americans with some truth, no, not that the elections were stolen, or that there is any election fraud, but the mere fact that if this nation holds its Midterms in November, Trump is out of tricks. So, he has projected that his trick will be to do everything and anything to disrupt our elections. 

Trump’s speech on Thursday, July 16, 2026, was a two-part plan. To warn us that he will stop at nothing to steal the election, to stop the election, and to recruit the paranoid cultists in MAGA to join his army to rid America of anyone who is not Trump! 

Trump cannot help himself in signaling his ill intentions; it is a part of his mental illness.

 

 

"I'm A MAN, yes I am..."

 “I got to keep my image. While suspended on a throne. That looks out upon a kingdom. Full of people all unknown. I'm a man, yes, I am. And I can't help but love you so, no, no, no.” (‘I’m a Man’/Winwood & Miller)

“Critics on social media blasted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s newly announced plan to require testosterone level testing for service members over the age of 30. “This sounds suspiciously like taxpayer-funded gender affirming care,” one commenter wrote. (HuffPost)

“I’m authorizing a new screening program for testosterone deficiency for our service members, ensuring you have the right testosterone levels to operate at your absolute best, because it’s well-established science that as we age, testosterone levels often naturally drop,” Hegseth said in a video on X posted with the phrase “The High-T Department of War.” (HuffPost).

Pistol Pete, some kind of incomplete heterosexual male, full of lack of self-confidence in his manliness, the Secretary of War, in the middle of a war costing American taxpayers over $1billion a day, having created the loss of life of American Troops, thousands of Iranians, and the destruction of a majority of the US bases in the Gulf States, the go to guy hired by his draft dodging wanna be Alexander the Great, conqueror of the world, Trump, has a new invented a sudden new priority MACHISMO in the form of how high is your T-cell count!

The Trump Iranian War, let’s be real, has become a bore for Pistol Pete and Demented Don, so it's time for them to play a new round of the Republicans' favorite pastime…” Look over there!” Now the real enemy of the USA is men over 40 in the military who have become wimps because the test of real men is having a HIGH number of testosterone.  

Ladies need not apply, and eventually, if self-emasculated Pistol Peter has his way, there will be no ladies permitted to serve in the “I Am Man Military.” SNL, The Onion, and even MAD Magazine could not create a situation like this if they tried.

 

 

But of course, AGAIN

 On Tuesday, July 14, 2026, after yet another murder by ICE agents on American soil, CE has been ordered to cease vehicle stops due to concerns over aggressive tactics and potential violations of rights. This decision aims to protect individuals during interactions with immigration enforcement.

But death and destruction, chaos and belligerence are the oxygen that Trump breathes, so on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, this happened: Trump’s order to resume ICE traffic stops means more danger for the public. Even his own immigration czar admits that permanently ending the stops would better protect ICE agents, their targets and the public. (MS NOW)

I am so tired of saying, but of course so, the of course so always relating to the simple fact that Trump is an immoral, criminal giving zero shits about the lives of anyone but himself. Saying of course also is in regard to the simplest of facts that Trump is enabled to wreak havoc and murder upon this nation, because the so-called “checks and balances,” which were enshrined in the US Constitution giving the Congress the right to challenge the Executive Branch, have been completely removed and ignored by the Republican led majority in Congress.

Trump's private Militia, his “Brown Shirts,” his “Gestapo”, can once again run amok, kidnap, maim, and murder as they please, and will figuratively and literally ‘GET AWAY WITH MURDER!”

Donald Trump's ICE agents killed two more men who were not the targets of their operations. The fatal shootings of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Texas and Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Maine are the latest incidents of the federal government killing civilians during immigration operations. Add to that Renee Good and Alex Pretti and most likely a score of other people whose deaths had not been recorded, and we witness, once again, zero remorse, zero responsibility, and zero consequences.

And of course, I am so tired of begging the question: “What have we become as a nation?”

 

 

 

A murder by any name

 “In Maine on Monday, DHS said ICE officers were conducting surveillance at the last known residence of a person under a deportation order when they attempted to stop a vehicle as it was leaving the property. The driver tried to flee and an officer fired “fearing for public safety,” according to DHS. Independent Maine Senator Angus King said Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told him the man who died — Joan Sebastian Guerrero — was not the target of the deportation operation.”  (Bloomberg)

Like most Americans, unlike the MAGA, those of us who believe in morals, values, democratic rules of law, I am appalled. I am not surprised, sadly, at this newest occurrence of murder by ICE.

A few more facts to piss off anyone who is not a MAGA cultist, a bigot, a racist, a xenophobe, to make this current murder by ICE even more disgusting.

ICE agents were directed to wear body cameras as part of a program to increase transparency and accountability. This directive was announced by Secretary Kristi Noem in response to public outcry following incidents involving federal officers. (Brennan Center for Justice)…And yet the ICE Gestapo agents of death still have no such camera attached to their bodies, permitting them to freely commit crimes of kidnapping and murder, as freely as they desire. 

ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) is not the official to take charge of scenes in a murder, but in each incident where a human is murdered, ICE immediately directs the local police to step down and back off. Imagine how unjust it is for the same Government agency that caused the murder of innocents to immediately become the Chief investigators. What evidence could be ignored or removed.

And last but not least, the real ugly thing about this is that to date, none of the murderers of innocents have been held accountable for their crimes. Instead, they have been praised by their Nazi-like leadership under the tutelage of Stephen Miller, and now Markwayne Mullin and the ever accomplices in murder, the Republican majority in Congress, and protected, all of them calling the murders by ICE Gestapo as Patriotic!
