The PROOF IS out there

 Proof is a logical explanation or argument that demonstrates the truth of a statement or proposition, often using evidence and reasoning to establish its validity.

In the American political world dominated by a vast majority of Republicans, PROOF seems to be the one and only thing they, as a group, refuse to accept, provide, or share. Imagine just providing PROOF, as in providing all of the hidden papers or tapes, providing person-to-person interaction, or providing facts, not fiction, to prove that what you say and do is real!

Today, Monday, July 27, 2026, there was a new photo of Mitch McConnell and his wife, Elaine Chao. “Senator Mitch McConnell has been absent from Congress for more than a month as he recovers from what he says was a fall. This week, the former Senate majority leader issued a rare new statement on his recovery and a second proof-of-life photo. But he gave no clear timeline for his return to Capitol Hill amid widespread speculation about the specifics of his condition.” (New York Magazine)…Is this Proof that Mitch is alive, or not brain dead, or already buried? If Mitch were just Mitch McConnell, mail delivery person, store clerk, a laborer, the photo shoot alone would not suffice to provide the PROOF that indeed, Mitch is living and functioning. But somehow, we, the people, and especially the people of Kentucky, must assume that Mitch is alive and doing so much better. Imagine inviting a few members of the Kentucky media to visit him in the hospital!

The war that wasn’t a war, until it was a war, and then suddenly became just a skirmish…the embargo of the Strait of Hormuz, which had been open, but now was closed, which was almost opened again, is still shut…the nonexistent fees to travel through the Strait are now in existence, the obliterated arsenal of weapons of war and nuclear abilities, are somehow not obliterated…PROOF is an inconvenient truth for Trump, Hegseth, Rubio, and Vance. What we see and hear is not PROOF of anything but of MAGA/Republican based propaganda of what it is that the Trump Reich prefers to “show and tell!”

Approximately 2.5 million pages of Epstein files have not been released, as the Department of Justice stated that they had fulfilled their legal obligations with the release of over 3.5 million pages, while estimates suggest the total could be around 6 million pages. (CBS News)…Innocence can be proven by providing PROOF. If no harm or no foul had been committed, then open up the remaining files associated with Epstein, look into the camera with a shit-eating “I told you so grin,” provide the American public with your middle finger, and here is the PROOF: I am not either a PEDOPHILE or a RAPIST. PROOF should be as easy as releasing ALL the remaining millions of files.

The TV show The X-Files used the tagline "The truth is out there." Seems to me McConnell and Trump, and Todd Blanche, and Pete Hegseth, and Marco Rubio, and Just Dance Vance could easily dispel any confusion by stating: “THE PROOF IS OUT THERE.”

 

 

Some kinda Golden Rule

 As Trump boosts nuclear power, regulators seek to eliminate a longstanding radiation safety rule. Currently, facilities such as nuclear plants, hospitals or academic institutions that use radioactive materials must ensure radiation exposures are kept “as low as reasonably achievable” — the ALARA principle. The NRC proposal would abandon that philosophy while keeping a separate standard on maximum radiation exposure. (AP News)

The same administration that decided the measles vaccine was just a socialist scheme to control the population… the same administration that decided cuts to food safety were not in favor of the large corporations’ bottom lines…the same administration that has decided wind mills either kill birds or stop the air from actually flowing, and that climate change is nothing but a Left Wing hoax… the same administration that is supported by a band of so called Pro-Life Christian Nationalists has DECIDED that money from the Nuclear Power Industry placed into their pockets is a priority over and above the health and welfare of the citizens of this nation.

No abortions, this administration insists, as do their hypocritical Republican enablers, but once the fetus is outside of the womb, then suddenly it is of no concern, cutting back health care, cutting back nutritional assistance, cutting back almost any governmental program that actually makes living livable!

Profit over people. The Trump Crime Family and his billionaire sycophants prefer to keep the peasantry hungry, homeless, and unhealthy. Public safety is now a form of communism or socialism. Public health is suddenly a very un-Christian machination.

The saying "do unto others as you would have them do unto you," commonly known as the Golden Rule, is found in the Bible in Matthew 7:12 and Luke 6:31.Nope, none of that Biblical storyline is of any consequence with this administration and their enablers; that too just sounds a little too much like Left Wing propaganda! The only Golden Rule Trump is concerned about is the amount of Gold he can own!

His NEW Enablers

 Trump seems to get away with grift, corruption, maybe rape of a minor (think about the inability to access all of the video from the FBI Epstein Files), perhaps even murder (one might wonder about his first wife, Ivana, suddenly falling down a set of stairs in her apartment days before she was to testify against Trump), because he has surrounded himself with willing enablers people from the Republican dominated Supreme Court, to the puppets posing as Republican politicians, the billionaire bros who base their morality and humanity on how much wealth they can accumulate, to the media insurrectionists at FOX. We know this, we witness this, and for many of us, we are pissed that THIS is even a thing.

However, at least for me, one of the most disgusting and self-serving enablers of Trump’s constant scam of the American people, and his profitable distribution of snake oil, comes from a group of people who, once again, as I see it, were supposed to be a part of the checks and balances of our Democracy…CORRESPONDENTS! 

We recently witnessed the White House Correspondents' Dinner, something I would usually not give a shit about, but this one was months after the original, where supposedly an assassination attempt had been planned against Trump. (And remember this, please: this so-called assassination was a hue and cry for why Trump needed his ballroom to keep himself safe and sound.) And once again, as Trump tried at the original dinner, he insulted and harassed the correspondents in attendance. (This time, as an aside, suddenly there was a plethora of Secret Service agents in attendance…I suppose you can only plan an assassination one time only).

Trump lied, as he only knows how to do; Trump demanded and insulted as he only knows how to; Trump pontificated about “FAKE NEWS,” as he always does, and YET, AND YET, knowing that lies and fabrication is all Trump is capable of, these CORRESPONDENTS still invited Trump, and sat there almost as willing idiots as Trump ranted and raved!

Why I give a shit about this IS the fact that once the JOURNALISTS/REPORTERS/ and CORRESPONDENTS provide access to a 34-count felon, a man found guilty of rape, a man found guilty of fraud, as if none of that matters, IS just one more example of normalizing a most abhorrent and criminal President. Is there nothing or no one that will finally say “SHUT THE FUCK UP!”

The last 4 don't count

 The Pentagon reduced the official death toll from the Iran war from 18 to 14 after removing four service members who were killed after President Trump declared a ceasefire in April. This change has raised questions about the transparency of casualty reporting during the ongoing conflict. (CNBC)

Please read the opening paragraph again. Read it, and if your blood pressure did not shoot up, then shame on you, because according to Trump, the 4 Troops who died, as in they no longer are alive, were just unfortunate collateral, and admitting that they died while serving during Trump’s Iran War would make Trump’s DEAD SOLDIERS TOTALS seem a little too ominous and odious.

Following the Trump/Hegseth philosophy if you are a member of the US Military, and died from any Iranian attack, but if you died during the time that Trump and Hegseth and even Rubio decided that the Iran War was not a war but a skirmish or some kind of so called ceasefire, your death was not that important, rather it was a bit too inconvenient to tame Trump’s lies and ego.

And remember this: Donald Trump reportedly referred to fallen soldiers as "losers" and "suckers" during his presidency, particularly mentioning the Marines who died at Belleau Wood and American casualties at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in France. These comments were detailed in a 2020 article by The Atlantic.

So to the most recent service members who died during the Trump Iran War, Capt. Cody Khork, Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor, Sgt. Declan Coady, and Sgt. 1st Class Noah Tietjens, my sincere gratitude for your service, and to your families my sincere apologies for having Trump in the position of Commander-In-Chief.

Two fer...

 Two tidbits- maybe tidbits are too kind a word to use- so I will, instead, say two AVOIDABLE, REPREHENSIBLE, and seemingly INTENTIONAL medical issues have arisen from within the Trump Reich. One of them alone should have been cause for alarm, but two of them at the same time should have American citizens demanding that Trump/RFK Jr./and Elon Musk be held accountable.

2025, with five more months of 2026 still to come. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention logged 2,318 cases of measles as of Thursday, according to an agency update on Friday. (AP, APnews.com)

As of mid-July 2026, nearly 7,000 cases of cyclosporiasis, which causes "explosive" diarrhea, have been reported across at least 34 states in the U.S. (Yahoo)

Trump is guilty of hiring Musk, who took it on his whims and wishes to eliminate staffing and budget cuts at the CDC, basing none of the DOGE cutbacks on fact or purpose. And Trump is guilty because he nominated RFK Jr. not based on Kennedy’s education in health and medical issues, but rather as “got you” to Democrats. And RFK Jr. should be reprimanded for relying on his own medical conspiracy theories and ignoring any medical facts.

The Trump Reich, with their bigots, racists, and misogynists at the helm, are doing their best to drag this country into the days of slavery and the years before the 19^th Amendment was ratified; they have now added the bonus of dragging this nation into the era of the Plague. 

It is fucking 2026, and the Trump Reichstadt is in full mode to turn back time, not by days or years but decades and decades and decades. UNBELIEVABLE!

 

 

 

One SHOULD wonder

 “Russiagate” was real, according to none other than Donald Trump and his administration. Trump spent years dismissing allegations that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. election to aid his presidential campaign, labeling it a “hoax.” And yet, now his administration has, seemingly unwittingly, admitted that Russia sought to meddle in the 2020 election to boost his failed reelection bid. (zeteo.com)

FBI Director Kash Patel has planned a trip to Russia, making him the first FBI director to visit the country in 13 years, according to a Politico report on Monday. It's unclear if he will meet with Russian leader Vladimir Putin or any of his top aides. The agenda for the visit was also unknown, sources told Politico. (rawstory.com)

Two headlines, how very interesting that both headlines have made it to the public eye, especially during a period of time in the United States, when the current President is clamoring about how the US elections are rigged whenever Trump or Trump's cronies fail to win the popular vote.

Russia was listening, was interfering, and it is in Russia’s best interests, especially that of Putin, for Russia to continue involving itself in what once was considered fair and democratic elections in the US.

Hmm. Keystone Kash traveling to Russia- why? The FBI Director flying off to visit Moscow, how come? Is he to broker the Russian/Ukraine War…is he a Senator or an elected official? Is he there to just spend time in some locker room and drink beer? Why now, as in 4 months until the Midterm elections, which, if the Democrats win the majority, will certainly put a lid on Trump's intentions to remain king? 

Trump is desperate to rig the elections! And now the FBI Director, the guy who is supposed to be the guy who maintains law and order in this nation, is visiting one of the most lawless nations in the world. One must wonder!

 

 

 

Yet, another worry

 “Last week, Donald Trump’s Justice Department sent teams of FBI agents to the private homes of at least four Times journalists who reported that during his recent trip to Turkey, the president’s new Qatari-gifted airplane had to be switched out due to security concerns, requiring a return flight on the original Air Force One. The story reportedly infuriated the president, who in May 2025 had gleefully accepted the plane as a “gift” from Qatar, despite obvious ethical and security concerns shared across partisan lines.” (New York Magazine)

The "What, me worry?" meme features Alfred E. Neuman, the mascot of Mad magazine, known for his carefree attitude and distinctive appearance. This phrase reflects a humorous, carefree approach to life's problems. (Wikipedia)

There is nothing carefree, not an ounce of humor, no iota of ignoring, the ONCE AGAIN Fascist and Authoritarian machinations initiated by Trump and instituted by his Injustice Department. Truth is an unhealthy aspect in the life of Trump, and for Trump and his orange-ass licker “brown shirts,” serving Trump’s every anti-democracy decision becomes more worrisome, more threatening, and more dangerous, towards the so-called life and liberty of Americans.

Be it the FBI or the Injustice Department, Trump is doing everything he can (and the Supreme Court has made it quite easy) to remove free speech and freedom of the press. Trump is as dumb as they come kind of shit, but the one thing Trump is quite wise about is exactly how many crimes he has committed, how many lies he has told. Trump relishes his grift, his con, and so far in his life he has gotten away with all of his insidious and heinous actions. Trump does not plan on losing his presidency, his power, or his freedom.

So, now, here we are, once again, as Fascism Trump style is moving in on denying journalists the ability to explain to the population how much snake oil has been produced and sold to the American people. Just one more Trump action to fear!
