Security...umm...no

 Vladimir Putin has plans…for America. Vladimir Putin has his favorite Domestic Enemy in power, and as Vladimir Putin, he is spending money on trying to dismantle Ukraine with weapons of war. Vladimir Putin is only using blackmail tapes of Trump, most likely saying and doing the most vile and incriminating acts.

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte would become acting director of national intelligence. Pulte is stepping in to replace Tulsi Gabbard, who resigned from her post last month. Though Trump claimed his appointee “has deep experience managing the most sensitive matters in America,” he’ll take the position with literally zero relevant experience for coordinating 17 American intelligence agencies’ work. But Pulte’s appointment makes slightly more sense when you consider his place in Trump’s orbit. The 38-year-old heir to his family’s massive home construction company shares the president’s love of social media bullying, golf and abusing power for personal gain. (MS NOW)

This nepotism dude, living off of his father’s successes and billions of dollars, is the inexperienced go-to guy to oversee 17, count ‘em 17, intelligence agencies of the US.

But then, to add insult to a great injury, and perhaps as Bro kinda gift to Putin, Trump sanctioned this act of domestic terrorism towards America.

A convicted Jan. 6 rioter who later said that he regretted his participation in the U.S. Capitol attack has been hired by the Trump administration to work inside a Pentagon office that manages highly classified military operations, according to four people familiar with the matter. The appointment of Elias Irizarry, who was 19 at the time of the riot in 2021, to a post in the Defense Department’s Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict office has raised alarm internally among staff who question how anyone convicted in the assault on American democracy could be trusted for such a sensitive role in the U.S. government, these people said. (MS NOW)

Feelin’ safe yet? Feelin’ confident that our nation’s security is actually secure? Feelin’ as if Trump only gives a shit about you if you help his grift of collecting millions from you or if you are willing to fuck the Constitution, so Trump can do whatever the fuck he so desires?

But then, if you actually think about things regarding Trump and Security of the United States, just go back to the days when Trump had a private meeting with the Kremlin’s Top KGB buds in the Oval Office, or the time Trump stole classified documents and stored them in his bathroom. We ain’t safe, we are inch by inch, step by step being sold out to the guy who owns and operates Trump, Vlad )The Impaler, Putin

 

 

 

Another dud!

 President Donald Trump has tapped Bill Pulte, head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to be the acting director of national intelligence — putting a real estate scion and fierce Trump loyalist in a key national security post as the U.S. remains at war with Iran. (AP News)

Holy shit, as in HOLY SHIT, what could possibly go even more wrong and rotten with the Trump-Iran War, when the newest clown without any relevant job experience is placed as director of national intelligence.

We are losing lives, taxpayer dollars, and our reputation as a moral and decent nation, as Trump lies about his war, and becomes bored with his war, and now adding insult to injury, we have a dude, who has zero qualifications in the area of national intelligence, who also had zero qualifications when he became the Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency. But the one thing Bill Pulte does have is a loyalty, to Donald Trump…and for Trump and his malignant narcissism, screw the needs of America as long as the needs of Trump come first!

For me, this is not a trivial concern. We are at war in Iran, there is a war in Ukraine, and China is slowly but surely gaining ground in Taiwan. If you look closely at the people Trump has selected to lead the way for the US, all you see are inept sycophants, whose only qualifications are to adore Trump, ignore the facts, and help continue in keeping Trump in power as King.

As long as Trump remains in power, all we can look forward to is going lower than the lowest common denominator!

 

"No Fatties"

 “No Fatties”

Only active military members who meet specific body composition standards, such as a waist-to-height ratio of less than 0.55, will be allowed to attend the UFC event at the White House. This has been described as a "no fatties" rule by some officials. (CNN)

Trump's White House UFC event will only feature troops who 'look good on camera, officials confirm. (MSN)

Hitler's desire for all people in Germany to look like "good Aryans" was rooted in his belief in racial purity, which idealized individuals with pale skin, blond hair, and blue eyes. This ideology aimed to create a homogeneous society that he considered superior to others. (Britannica)

There is just so much disgusting grossness to unpack, as America witnesses, the fat, old, out-of-shape, “bone spur” draft dodger Trump and his pretty boy, who knows nothing about defense or War, ex-Fox weekend anchor Pete Hegseth, try to create their own version of America’s Master Race.

From Hegseth firing Generals of color, and females, insisting also that there will be no fat generals, to this side show creepy Nazi-like attempt to highlight real He-men and He-women, and Trump always commenting on how well built, and good looking some men are, we are witnessing deep hues of Fascism in America!

And to add insult to injury, these ALL-AMERICAN Troops, even permitted to attend this Roman Colosseum Gladiator event, must pay their own way to travel to Washington, D.C.

And oh, by the way, this Hitler-esque PR, Trump self-promoting event, UFC event at the White House is expected to cost around $60 million.

"and so it seems to be going"

 A picture captured by Getty Images photographer Kevin Dietsch on Tuesday shows the multiple renovations and construction efforts simultaneously underway at the White House, from the UFC Octagon being built on the South Lawn to Trump’s $400 million ballroom being constructed on the site of the demolished East Wing. (The Daily Beast)

Perhaps, most of sane America must look at the news of the day, the hour, the minute, feeling completely overwhelmed, anxious, and sick and tired, and all we are left with is the old adage, “…and so it goes…”

The Trump War in Iran continues, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent continues to brag about how Americans are spending more money, so that must be a sign of a powerful economy. SNAP benefits and Health Care are being cut, causing more people to prioritize food, housing, and medical care. Once again, Pam Bondi is permitted to use the law as she sees fit, and the Republicans in the House prefer perverts and pedophiles. We are told by the Trump Reich that by not supporting all of Trump’s self-aggrandizing and self-serving theft of billions of dollars for his ego-boosting America at 250 years extravaganza that we are somehow Un-Patriotic! The majority of Trump-backed MAGA candidates win in republican primaries, with those voters overlooking the crime, criminality, and corruption history of those candidates.

Is “frustrating” even a purposeful word to describe our America right this moment? The Republican majority in Congress passes nonsensical bills to keep transgender people from playing sports or using bathrooms. They spend more time away from Washington, D.C., vacating the Congress for fear of even looking like they might piss off Trump. Tech Bros remain not only one of the most powerful forces prioritizing our politics, and they still are free to build mega warehouses that not only pollute our planet but also eagerly attempt to create even more unemployment.

The more the leader of a foreign nation embraces authoritarianism, the more Trump embraces them. We are lied to by the Trump Reich, and day in and day out, we are bombarded by the Trump Reich bullshit that if the facts actually prove how corrupt and evil Trump and his Fascists are, the more those facts are “fake news.”

I will not give in, or give up, but damn, it is becoming harder and harder for me to breathe, and that pain in the pit of my stomach seems to cry out in angst and anguish!

 

 

"it just ain't over"

 “Donald Trump is preparing to offer Iran a $300 billion bribe to back out of a war he never should have waded into—and it’s all thanks to Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. (The New Republic)

The United States is considering creating a massive investment fund for Iran as part of a peace deal, after Tehran demanded reparations for the destruction, The New York Times reported Thursday. An Iranian official put the amount for the “reconstruction program” at $300 billion. ” Guess What Jared Kushner Tried to Include in Iran Peace Deal? Kushner wants to turn Iran into his next real estate development project. (The New Republic)

Whiplash, no, maybe, I have been in a coma, or perhaps the premise to the movie, ‘Groundhog Day’ is real, Americans are in a continuous loop of The Twilight Zone…

Trump claimed to have eliminated Iran's nuclear capability during a speech on February 24, 2026, as part of his State of the Union address, where he stated that U.S. military strikes had "obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.  (PBS). He received a standing ovation from his spineless Republican eunuchs in Congress. Then, hoping we would not remember that lie, because when all you do is lie, you think everyone is a fool and will move on, because according to Trump, it was inevitable, at any moment, Iran was about to fire its obliterated stockpile of nuclear missiles. Trump, on his own, declared war on Iran. And from one day to the next, we had won the war, then we needed to go back to war, then the war was almost over, until right now…

With Trump, it seems all of his deals start in the hundreds of millions of dollars and often reach billions. None of this money is coming from his bank account or his billionaire’s bank accounts because they either don’t pay income taxes or, if they do, it adds up to chump change.

And then, as has been the case, someone in the Trump Family is put in place to make deals, and as they make those deals, they ensure that an increase in their finances is added to that deal.

Trump is tired of his war in Iran. He has actually become a little nervous regarding how many of his cultists are tired of his war in Iran. Trump likes shiny things, and his Iran war is mightily tarnished. I imagine that Trump will pay the bribe to Iran with American taxpayer dollars, somehow go on FOX and declare victory or blame Biden, and will then seek out other shiny objects, most likely to invade Cuba, and perhaps Greenland!

 

 

 

Once again, Pam Bondi

 Cancer is evil. If there were words to describe it as something else, I would use them and list them. Cancer, however, as I learned from those I have loved and lost to its evilness, is also a very humbling disease, one that digs deep into the conscience and soul, and does not discriminate. 

Pam Bondi, we are told, is recovering from a form of cancer. One might have expected, with her diagnosis, that she would find the time and make the effort to correct the injustices she had willingly placed onto others, and that, knowing how close she is or has been to the destructive dimensions of cancer, realizing her own pain and agony, could, would or should, make an attempt to stop, to end the pain and suffering of others, the others as in the victims of Jeffrey Epstein, and Donald Trump. I suppose to do so, one must first have a conscience and an ounce of humanity. Apparently, Pam Bondi lacks both.

Once again, as if she was some member of royalty, as Pam Bondi was to appear in front of the House oversight committee, Pam Bondi demanded that she not be under oath, that video cameras not be used in the committee hearing, and via her attorneys from the so called Trump Justice Department, not be required to answer and question if that question asked, had the name Donold Trump.

And once again, Pam Bondi did not need to be honest, did not have to answer questions she desired to ignore, and once again covered up for pedophiles and the President. Nothing to see here once again!

Cancer is ugly, it is scary, it is devastating, it is deadly. The people I have loved and lost to cancer, one by one, each and every one of them, during their days and nights of pain, and agony, depression, and snippets of hope, looked at their lives, and those around them, and proclaimed a sense of humanity intense and pure. 

Pam Bondi was still unable to give a fuck, give a shit, empathize, sympathize with the pain and suffering of the Epstein/Trump victims and survivors. How dark and disgusting of a human being must you be to do so! 

 

 

 

On That Day

  

The Trump administration frequently emphasized the idea that sacrifices made, particularly in terms of economic policies and military actions, were justified for the greater good of the country. Trump and his supporters often framed their actions as necessary sacrifices for national interests, suggesting that the benefits outweighed the costs. (BBC)

Scott Bessent has expressed optimism about the U.S. economy, suggesting that the current financial challenges are temporary and will lead to significant economic growth and job gains in the future. He believes that the stock market's performance indicates that Main Street will benefit from the recovery ahead. (BBC)

I am not, nor ever have been, that great in understanding the nuances and narratives as they relate to economics. I majored in Social Work and Communal Services in college, and, thankfully for me, those majors placed less emphasis on Economics, Business, and even Math. But as I grew older, and as an adult faced the realities of life, and the cost of living that life, aside from the emotional and psychological aspects, I had to learn an awful lot about money, how to maintain it, how to grow it and how to balance living on some money sometimes, less money other times, and I wish I had more money often times.

So when I hear Sec Treasury Scottie Bessant, the billionaire, and his puppet master, Trump, lecture the average American (not the billionaire donors who own and operate the Republican Party) that it might be rough now, but just wait because magically it will get better, and we will be so GRATEFUL for that, I want to puke. And suddenly, I became a MAVEN in the fields of economics and finance.

Secretary Bessant, if an American has only so much money to pay for mortgage, or rent, health care, groceries, and gasoline, and that American NOW, must use that total sum of money just to make it through the day, and that day turns into the next day, and the next day ad nauseum, and said American actually runs out of all of the money they have, how the fuck will they be able to make it through to that PROMISED DAY, you and Trump swear will be coming? When you have some, and each day that sum of the some diminishes, and finally you have none, please explain to me using your best Economic and Financial Billionaire facts and figures, does an American even survive, waiting for the promised day of “it’s over, and we won!”
