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!

 

 

Another "gash" in the truth

 Trump keeps changing his story about the alleged ‘gash’ in the Reflecting Pool. When administration officials can’t keep their story straight about dubious details, it’s a big hint that they’re probably making stuff up. (MS NOW)

This is probably the one and only time the Reagan/Republican bull shit line about “Trickle Down” is true. The lies begin with Trump and are then owned and operated by members of the Trump Reich and set out to be planted and plotted by the Republican Party. There is never a “THERE, THERE”; instead, what we get are continuous lies, treason, corruption, and criminals walking away freely. Sadly, who is surprised? And even sadder than all of that is the fact that for Trump and his Reich, there are fewer and fewer consequences paid for!

David Hearn, a three-time Olympian, was arrested for allegedly touching a piece of paint that was peeling from the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, leading to charges of felony destruction of property. And now that the Reflecting Pool has been drained a third time yet, we witness no 200-foot or 350-foot, and the current Trump-quoted 450-foot gash. What we do see are the tire marks from the Trump Reich SUVs, which did a Trumpian show-and-tell drive on it right after the so-called blue lining had been added.

As do most authoritarian governments, when the Dear Leader and his gang of Gestapo goons like flunkies are found to be guilty, they crack down on the lowly citizen, making him or her the scapegoat. Quick retribution, based on a necessary cover-up, using their state-run media to insist that what you saw ain’t the truth.

Trump keeps on lying. The members of his Reich bend over backward to keep the Trump lie alive. Innocents, instead of the true corrupt criminals, are used as fodder. And so far, Trump and his Regime have clearly gotten away with this!

 

 

 

Following this?

 President Trump said Monday he is reimposing the U.S. blockade on Iranian shipping, escalating a standoff over control of the strategic Strait of Hormuz. (The Wall Street Journal)

What, wait! First, the Strait was open, toll-free kind of open at that. Then it wasn’t opened, but we were told that the Strait was open, and the United States decided that it wouldn’t be opened by the Iranians until the United States told them it was open.

It’s kind of like there was no war until there was a war, because we were told we won the war, which was not a war, until we won it…but we didn’t win it. Got it?

Then there was a ceasefire, except it was never a ceasefire because if it had been a ceasefire, then all fire would have ceased, and the only reason there would be the need for a ceasefire, if in fact there had been a war, and since there was no war, just something called Epic Fury, which was just a means for Testosterone-starved Pete Hegseth to pretend that his box of tin soldiers were he-men and all powerful. Following this?

And this war, not a war, was never supposed to go on for more than a week, because we were told directly by Trump that the US had obliterated the Iranian nuclear threat and destroyed the entire military complex of Iran. Except that, as is usually the case with Trump, he makes things up in his head and tells so many lies that he cannot remember what he lied about. So, conveniently, it seems the US did not obliterate all of the nuclear dust, and we the people had to go to war to make certain that in the near future, we would all be safe from Iran dropping a nuclear bomb on the US in the next month or two.

13 US Troops died, thousands of people were murdered or maimed, billions of tax dollars (not money from the billionaires), US Middle East bases were destroyed, and the cost of almost anything that must traverse via the Strait of Hormuz has exploded.

Now we are blockading the Strait once more. But do not despair, because while all of this is happening, Trump is rebuilding Washington, D.C., from a cesspool that used to be reflecting to a 250th birthday bash that was a busted and bogus celebration, to building a Ballroom for the elite, to building Triumphant Arches. 

Just another day in the United States Hell!

 

Just another ICE murder

 Fatal shooting in Biddeford, Maine; Speaker says ICE agents involved. (Seacoastline.com)

How to get away with murder and be free to murder again. All you have to do is wear a mask on your face, wear a bulletproof vest, and, oh yeah, be an employee of Stephen Miller, who, of course, works for Donald Trump. No worries, just shoot first, ask questions later, that is, if you hang around long enough to see your victim lying dead on the ground or in a car.

Know that you, the ICE murderer, will be protected by the Trump Reich In-Justice Department, be called a Patriot by the Republican Majority in Congress, and will have “dibs” on joining the Trump Militia when he needs you to disrupt the midterm elections in November.

Trump and his Gestapo within his Reich love to claim that it is only the worst of the worst that ICE is seeking out, deporting, kidnapping, or occasionally murdering, but in fact, the truth is that the worst of the worst are the ones being recruited to do the dirty work of murdering anyone they pretend is the enemy of the state.

And we, the people, watch, wonder, wait, when, oh when, if ever, will any of these American Fascists ever be stopped and finally face the consequences for their heinous and deadly actions?
