another day, one more grift

 Deficit, but not for the Klansmen and women working inside the Trump Inner Sanctum of fraud and scam. Nope, spending taxpayers' dollars on their own frivolous machinations makes them more of a proud Trumpian sycophant, and of course, one hell of a Trumpian hypocrite!

“FBI Director Kash Patel flew today on the FBI’s Gulfstream jet bound for a trip to the winter Olympics in Italy to watch one of his favorite sports: men’s ice hockey, according to three people familiar with his plans.” Patel, an avid hockey player and fan, will be at the Olympic festivities and plans to attend the bronze medal competition in men’s ice hockey on Saturday and the competition for the gold medal on Sunday, the people said. (MS NOW)

Chump change, yeppers, nothing to see here, come on now, the FBI Director has worked long and hard in not solving any cases of missing people, kidnapped, or breaking the laws, not of course the laws that Trump breaks!

“Government accounts estimate it costs U.S. taxpayers at least $5,000 per flight hour for the FBI Gulfstream to fly, meaning Patel’s trip to Milan is likely to cost as much as $75,000.” (MS NOW)

But, seriously, you American dupes and dopes, this trip by Patel, who loves himself some hockey ain’t at all about Patel’s love for hockey, nope, this man is doing some work for the American people, he deserves a medal for giving up his time.

“FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson tweeted late Thursday that Patel’s trip was not personal and he was invited months ago.” (MS NOW)

Wonder if Patel’s girlfriend will be joining him, and wonder what the added cost of her security, her dining habits, and Patel’s preferred touristy things will cost. The Trumpian grift is no longer hidden; to grift off of the American taxpayer is, in Trump-Landia, a badge of pride!

"look over there, again"

 “US Amasses Forces as Trump Says Iran Has Just Days for Deal” (Bloomberg)

Must be some crucial Epstein rape and abuse information ready to finally float to the top of what has been Pammy Bondi’s illegal attempt to protect the pedophiles.

In January 2017, at a luncheon with congressional leaders immediately following his inauguration, Trump gave a shoutout to the military leaders he put in his Cabinet -- specifically, John Kelly and James Mattis, both retired four-star Marine generals. He called them "my generals" and declared: "These are central casting. If I'm doing a movie, I'd pick you generals." He boasted to the congressional leaders the men "are going to keep us so safe."

Trump, similar to the wealthy men who either dressed as women or just pushed women and children as the Titanic was sinking, just to save themselves, will do whatever has to be done to remain president, and definitely remain out of jail. He tried invading Greenland, then invaded Venezuela as the really nasty details emerged of Trump’s pedophilia with Epstein.

Donald Trump has faced criticism for making disparaging remarks about U.S. military service members, including calling fallen soldiers "losers" and "suckers." These comments were reported in a 2020 article and have since been confirmed by former officials, prompting significant backlash from veterans and the public. (PBS)

Trump’s useful Troops, the men and women he savagely disses, dismisses, and has great disdain for, become useless tools as he runs for cover once again. And has always been the case with Trump and his Republican Pedophile Protectors in Congress, he is using the “look over there” ploy hoping just as it has worked in the past it will work wonders now!

 

Where have you been?

 Christian leaders accuse Trump admin of promoting faith ‘corrupted’ by nationalism. In a statement, nearly 400 reverends, bishops and theologians argued that Trump’s policies are pushing the U.S. toward “authoritarian and imperial rule.” (MS NOW)

Ya ’think!  Ya’ never thunk this before now? And only 400 of you, reverends, bishops, and theologians out of thousands and thousands have NOW come to this conclusion! HOLY shit, suddenly, as in not the minute Trump somehow won a second term (I truly wish there were enough Internet sleuths to delve into the Immigrant Musk, attempts as the one who predicted Trumps victory way ahead of any polls), it has dawned on your religious brains, that the man who is a racist, a 34-count felon, an accused sexual harasser, a man mention thousands of times in the Epstein Files, the man who has his cabinet members, ban free speech, band the rights to protest, who is readily enabling undemocratic rigging of elections, and who counts as his besties, the worsties of dictators and mercenaries.

Suddenly, the 400 hundred of you accuse Trump of corruption, of promoting corruption, the guy who languishes in corruption and grift! Okay, good start, a very late start, if ya’ ask me. And now what the 400 hundred of you, seriously, now what? Any ideas to convince the rest of your buds wearing the religious cloth to finally place their faith above the phony? 

 

How VERY REPUBLICAN

 “What now follows is the full, fair and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities,” he said. “In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation. Let me state clearly: the law must take its course.” (King Charles III)

If at one time, we had something called ‘American Exceptionalism’, it has now morphed into something as lousy and degrading as REPUBLICAN DEPRAVITY.

Covering up, feigning shock and awe, looking the other way, the vast majority of Republicans in power, and who have the power to bring justice to the innocent victims of Epstein and his Elitist Billionaire criminals, prefer to placate their puppet masters, shield Trump, and to pretend that one of the most perverted of crimes EVER, is unimportant, or should I say not as important as their own personal gains and political futures.

The stench of the Republican Pedophile Protectors was witnessed as ZERO Republicans showed up for the deposition of Leslie Wexner. The deposition of Les Wexner, conducted by the U.S. House Oversight Committee, took place on February 18, 2026, in Ohio. This event was significant due to Wexner's connections with Jeffrey Epstein. The deposition aimed to question Wexner about his relationship with Epstein, who was a convicted sex offender and had been Wexner's financial advisor until 2007.

Wexner donated to Republican Senators from Ohio, both of whom had voted against releasing the Epstein Files. A coincidence, bull shit, as to why the Republicans were supposedly ordered by MAGA Mike Johnson not appear for Wexner’s deposition.

How sad, who very immoral, how disgusting, and in America, how VERY REPUBLICAN!

The Art of the Hate

 Arguing that America was built on white culture gets at an accurate insight by an indirect path: “whiteness” and “Americanness” are often treated as equivalent. (MS NOW)

“Commentary: With immigration losing its edge, Republicans find a new boogeyman: 'Radical Islam'” (Los Angeles Times)

It ain’t no longer the Art of the Deal, it is and actually has been for anyone who has paid attention to the Republican Party, the Art of the Hate. When there is really nothing new to offer, and your policies have begun to unravel as purposefully and willfully weighed to the very wealthy Americans, as a political party, as in the Republicans, an easy out is necessary to continue and sell the snake oil, and the easiest action is to offer hate. Hate wrapped up in a Bible no one reads, but almost everyone who has not read it personally is preached to by clergy, who understand that their power remains powerful only as long as their congregation remains weak, and thinks they are weakened by anyone who does not look like them, has sex like they do, or worships the kind of God they do.

Whoever the folks are behind the Republican Art of Hate, they are, in fact, very smart people, smart enough to know that words like inclusivity, commonality, and equality burn the souls of way too many people, who are usually uneducated, but educated enough to CHASTISE, to DISRESPECT, and to HATE. The PR folks in the Republican Party understand that losers never win, and when they don’t win, they blame their losses on anyone but themselves.

Anti, what, now?

 Trump wants to prosecute anti-fascists as terrorists. This Texas trial will test his power. (MS NOW)

“If you pretend that a lie is in fact a truth and begin to live in the reality of those lies, choosing purposefully to rearrange the facts of the matter, so that in the end no fact will ever matter, you are a smarmy person. Eventually, your shelter, your charade, your snake oil will turn sour and eventually rot. It is pure physics, schmucks carry so much self- loathing weight, that eventually one too many easy targets will collapse in on themselves, because stupid is a heavy burden!” (Howard Buncher, my father)

ANTIFA, as in Anti-Fascist. Anti- "Anti" is a prefix meaning "against" or "opposed to" something. Fascist- A fascist is someone who supports a political ideology that emphasizes strong, centralized authority, often led by a dictatorial leader, and prioritizes the nation or race above individual rights. Hmm, or is the word duh, or maybe the phrase I am searching for is, WHAT THE FUCK!

The Republican Party, with the clear directive from its Reich Leader, Trump, has championed the charge to dismantle Democracy, use the US Constitution only when it seems to cover up their crimes, and to limit the freedoms to speak up, protest, and demand that justice prevail. The Republicans have always known that, in a fair and equal opportunity government, the hateful, discriminatory rhetoric and actions that they have based their beliefs on lie only in the hearts of the minority, and dwell deeply in the stupidity that keeps people like that alive.

Once again, without any hocus pocus, and in plain sight, we are being told by Trump and his Gestapo that to be against Fascism is not as American as Apple Pie. OMG, seriously, OMG!

Holy Hell Why

 Another day drags on, years and years, once upon a time, and yet not one person named in the Epstein Child Trafficking Crime, in America, has faced any time in court. Yeah, some have resigned, on their own, from their prominent positions, more have been forced out of their higher echelon positions in education, finance, and economics, but none, NONE of those mentioned in the Epstein Trafficking Files who have positions in the US Government, under the Trump Reich have resigned from their positions, or have been fired by Trump.

Another day, and the victims, the innocent, survivors, must still endure a Republican culture that still demeans their horrific past, and continues to support Trump and his cadre of Pedophiles. Yeah, a few billionaire bros have been used as scapegoats, but way too many other perverts remain hidden in the shadows, anonymous, predators who run free and remain unscathed.  

Another day, and no one in the Senate or House has stepped to their particular podiums to pronounce to the public the names of the Pedophiles in the Epstein/Trump Files. Actual criminals of child rape, child harassment, and child sexual acts have been publicly mentioned. And most of us who actually have morals and values and respect for these victims wonder why?

Crimes have been committed, criminals mentioned, and yet, for a few names, the hundreds of other Pedophiles still remain unsaid.

Another day in America, and yet those who have committed the most heinous of atrocities remain anonymous! Holy Hell Why!
