it may never be over

As of Saturday 24 October 2026, there are 10 days until Election Day in US 2026 on Tuesday, 3 November 2026. That's 1 week and 3 days, 1 weekend, or 6 weekdays. And with each passing day, we the people are faced with more horrors from the Trump Reich, who hope to dismantle our democracy and replace it with a form of Fascism, Authoritarianism, and a permanent malaise to make certain that from Tuesday, November 3, 2026, America becomes another Russia, China, or North Korea.

A ‘coup’ in Congress? Democrats are gaming out a Jan. 3 nightmare. (San Francisco Chronicle)

Judge blocks Homeland Security election-related sweeps in Nevada. (reno gazette journal)

Trump says he ordered the Justice Department's lawsuit over Alaska's US Senate race…Democrats take legal action against Trump bid ‘to rig’ Alaska Senate race. (AP News).

Trump understands that he is a criminal. He has never faced consequences for his insidious and criminal actions, but suddenly, for once, he does see the walls closing in on him. Along with Trump, it is his army of traitors and almost the entire regime of Republicans who also realize that maybe once January 3, 2027 arrives, they too will finally be found out as the frauds that they are and the frauds, they intended to be.

On paper, and maybe in practice, there may be a blue wave arriving, but if Trump and his DOJ, and the Republican billionaire donors and, sadly, the Republican activist judges on the Supreme Court have anything to say about it, that huge blue wave may never, ever see the American shore. It ain’t over till it is OVER! 

How low

 “The video from GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign surfaced earlier this week and drew sharp rebukes from Democrats and several high-profile Republicans. Acton has been estranged from her mother since childhood, when her stepfather was charged with sexually abusing her. Acton’s mother stayed with her stepfather and left the state, and he died several decades ago.” (The Wall Street Journal)

By now, anyone with a conscience, a set of morals and ethics, who proudly lives by values, care, and empathy, has grown increasingly angry at Republican billionaire Vivek Ramaswamy’s foul, rotten ad against his opponent in Ohio.  Dirty politics has become as American as apple pie, but this low-life ad has not only made that apple pie poisonous but has also demonstrated the sheer fear the Republican Party is feeling, and the lengths to which they will go to destroy anything in their path for total control of our government.

Okay, even Republican leaders in Ohio have understood the offensive lies and bull shit regarding this ad, and they have actually gone on record to shout their dismay and disappointment with Vivek and his team. BUT LO AND BEHOLD, when it comes to TRUMP, this felon, rapist, had a whole different point of view, saying:

“At a midterm rally in Sioux City, Iowa, Thursday night, Trump said that Ramaswamy called him and asked for advice after facing calls to take down the ad. Trump said he told the Ohio gubernatorial candidate he was lucky and that, if it were him, he would keep running the ad. “So I told him, leave it up and look upstairs and say: ‘thank you, God, very much.” (The Wall Street Journal).

Of course, the dirtier and more rotten you can go, you can count on Trump to cheer you on to go lower and even more insidious. 

So here is the thingie, as I see it: Trump won’t change; his Republican hand-picked ass wipes won’t change, they live on slime, WILL THE OHIO REPUBLICANS vote for Vivek and continue spreading this virus, or will finally do the right thing!

 

 

 

Another MAGA God

 Elon Musk is trying to make himself more powerful than the government. From the war in Ukraine to elections in the U.S., never before in human history has a single private individual exercised such power. (MS NOW)

Well now, how about that, schock-a-roo, the immigrant Musk, the wealthiest man in the world, who lives in the United States, the guy who has become the first trillionaire, the man who bought and paid for at least half of the Trump 2024 campaign, the insecure man of the year who it is estimated to have spent 100’s of million dollars on the Republican Midterm campaigns, Trump’s go to guy to cut the throats of the American citizen, considers himself to be above and beyond the rules and regulations, the Constitution of the U.S and more powerful than the President of this nation.

Now, how could that possibly even happen? HA! Easily and right in front of our faces, without much difficulty, and with the blessings of almost each and every member of the Trump Administration, and the entirety of the politicians within the Republican Party. 

If your financial daddy, the financial keeper of your own self-serving interests, the man with the purse strings which happen to turn into puppet strings, decides to close his wallet and walk away from you, because you think he lacks morals and values, and you actually have some ethics and wish to speak out about it, Elon understands, as does any sort of drug dealer, that eventually, when you need a fix or two or three, you will immediately remain silent and run back to him for your fix! 

One more fanboy of Putin, Musk, who, it seems, hates democracy and freedom for anyone who is not Musk, is a money cartel master. Like the Devil, you make a deal, sell your soul, and pretend that payment will never be due. Trump thinks he is a King; Musk prefers the title of God…and there ain’t nobody with the power and position within the Republican Party to dare tell him NO! 

 

 

Once again MUSK

 I read the following article: Elon Musk’s Starlink Speed Cap Has Scrambled Ukraine’s Defenses. Slowdown in Ukraine’s military version of Starlink ordered by Musk hurts Kyiv’s ability to stop Russian attacks. (The Wall Street Journal)…and a bout of sheer anger overwhelmed my entire being! 

Once again, Elon Musk is demonstrating his distaste for democracy and freedom, and using the weight of his purse to destroy and demolish anything- any institution, any nation that does not fit into his sociopathic and psychotic universe, the universe of a madman…and this madman seems to get away with every immoral action he commits!

Just like his owned-and-operated puppet, Trump, Musk has made it very clear that the idea of fair and free is not as much a priority as, is, authoritarianism. Too much power for the people means less power for the few, for the anointed, for the insidious. 

 Imagine just how much of a God Musk imagines himself to be, and if you don’t play the game by his rules, your game is over! Oh yeah, and it ain’t just Starlink in Ukraine that Musk has ultimate power over; it is also in the U.S. The U.S. government uses Starlink for various purposes, including communications for federal agencies like the Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection. The service has been adopted for its ability to provide internet access in rural areas and disaster zones. (NBC News)

But Musk needn’t worry about being reprimanded regarding his obvious distaste for democracy, because this guy has spent billions on purchasing Republicans in Congress, along with the Presidency! 

 

 

 

KOMPROMAT

 “Ukraine said Wednesday it was suddenly unable to use Starshield and that Starlink also had been affected, hindering its defense operations and ability to stop Russian attacks. Prior to the outage, the Trump administration had reportedly threatened to cut off intelligence and weapons support to Ukraine over Kyiv’s harsh criticism of Trump’s surprise deal to import Russian diesel. ” (The Hill)

Kompromat is damaging information about a person or a group, commonly a politician, businessperson, or other public figure, which may be used for negative campaigning or smear campaigning to discredit the person or group. It can also be used for blackmail purposes, often to exert influence over a person rather than for monetary gain, and extortion. The dissemination of kompromat is a key tactic in "dark PR" or "black PR" campaigns.  (Merriam-Webster). 

Prove that Trump is nothing but a puppet, a joke, a useful idiot for Putin. Prove that he is not a KOMPROMAT! Way back when, you know, when Trump asked if Russia was listening, he even reminded us of his cozy and anti-American relationship with one of America’s deadliest enemies. 

I must wonder about the treasure trove of photos, letters, contracts, loans, and videos the Kremlin has stashed away, showcasing Trump’s illegal and disgusting behavior. 

Yeah, Trump thinks he is just like his favorite dictators: Xi, Vlad, Kim. But those fuckers are actually in charge of their fates, whereas Trump’s fate is controlled and restricted by Putin. I must wonder when it will be too late for the FOX, the MAGA, the Manosphere dudes, and the Republicans to realize they have been had!

Trump is Public Enemy Number One, and so far all we seem able to do is sit by and watch!

 

 

 

Come on, Seriously!

 “Could Trump intervene in midterm elections? Here's what the administration can — and can't — legally do.”

“The Constitution puts the responsibility for setting the rules for congressional elections primarily with the states, while giving Congress the power to change those rules. It doesn't give the president a similar role.

Muller said an administration could try to use other emergency powers, such as those related to terrorism or homeland security, to justify intervening in elections. But he said the Supreme Court has generally interpreted emergency powers narrowly, making any attempt to broadly apply them vulnerable to a legal challenge.” (Houston Public Media)

He is afraid of prison. He is scared to death of losing his title as Mob Boss. His ego might actually shatter if he is finally found out as a fraud. He has lived a life without facing consequences for any of his actions, decisions, or insidious behavior. Trump ain’t gonna permit free and fair elections during this Midterm Election because doing so would place him in the greatest danger of his criminal life!

I read the article from Houston Public Media and thought, “…come on now, people, do you really think Trump and his army of fascists give one shit about what the US Constitution says about what he can or cannot do regarding his power over elections?” “…do you really think that this Supreme Court, which has almost made Trump God-like or king-like, would intervene against Trump’s authoritarian moves?” 

Democracy is not a priority for Trump; democratic principles are of no use to Trump. For us to even contemplate that law and order are meaningful and relevant for Trump, and his army of fascists, is a very silly, and more than likely deadly, attitude to take!

I hope I am just being paranoid beyond reality. I crave the idea that I am just too overwhelmed by the idea of dystopia. But honestly, as I see it, to ignore any of the horrendous intentions and deviant schemes from within the Trump Reich makes you an easy victim!

I am back...AND

 I’m back at it…For the past three weeks, Joe and I have had a great opportunity to travel the Danube River, visiting myriad countries in Central Europe. So much history, such amazing stories, and places from which their own citizens had to fight for survival from the Nazi’s only to once again become prisoners in their own land when the Communists took control.

Our tour guides constantly introduced us to individuals who would say sentences such as, " We had been oppressed only to become oppressed again,” which period of time would you like us to discuss: our survival during the Nazi occupation, or the real revolution and freedom after the fall of the Soviet Union?

I tried not to read the news at least in any great detail; I thought perhaps I needed a break from the constant angst, criminality, grifting, hypocrisy, and con created proudly by Trump and his sick, sad, psychotic felons, rapists, emasculated and dangerous Republican enablers. 

Too bad, at least as I see it, far too many Americans haven't read history; if they had, and unless their IQ is less than 10, this group of citizens could learn the lessons from Central Europe's past. The lesson that Hitler and Stalin pretended to be of the people, for the people…the lesson that isolation from the rest of the world just keeps the dictator with more power to isolate the citizens of any nation they decide they own…the lesson that whether it is Fascism or Communism, both are insidious mind control games to keep the peasants poor, the billionaires wealthy, and a very select few to act as Gods!

I am back, and have caught up on way too many horror stories, written by Trump and promoted by spineless and dangerous Republicans, all of whom have placed their own welfare and futures on a cockroach with orange skin.
