Commander and Cheat

 As the Emperor with no clothes exits his bunker styled life, leaving a now criminally soaked White House, to visit Arlington Cemetery, because nothing like a photo-op to curtail the chaos riddled manifestations he has conjured; along with his paid to play wife, both practicing something called parallel play (Parallel play is a form of play in which children play adjacent to each other, but do not try to influence one another's behavior. Children usually play alone during parallel play but are interested in what other children are doing. This usually occurs after the first birthday); one has to wonder what message, EXACTLY what is the message this Authoritarian Wanna Be, and his Third Wife is sharing within the confines of a final resting place for true patriots who surrendered their lives for the survival of democracy!

 

Will COV-EVITA Trump reminds the now dead Troops, that there actually are “Good Nazi’s”, that BFF Kim Jung-Un is truly a cool guy, that the bounty placed on American Troops in Afghanistan, paid for by Trump’s puppet master Putin, ain’t no biggie! Will Trump praise the dealing of Manafort and Mike Flynn and Roger Stone who all found friends and bribes and kickbacks from Russian Oligarchs to weigh more in value than a love of this country? Will Melania wear her extra special dark sunglasses, and designer mourning in America outfit, pretending any shits given are toward the now deceased soldiers, rather than the fact she HAS to, first, spend close contact with Donnie due to some Pre-Nup, and secondly demonstrate something she seems to know nothing about, empathy!

 

Is it ironic (happening in the opposite way to what is expected, and typically causing wry amusement because of this)? Are they idiotic (very stupid) and does that part of America, which still has values morals, and respect for those who have given life and limb, think both Don (The Con), Melanie ( “pleasing anyone else is not my priority”) find these two cartoon characters to be irrelevant (not connected with or relevant to something) or just irreverent (showing a lack of respect for people or things that are generally taken seriously) It is Veterans’ Day in America, 2020 and look who is paying a visit to Arlington!

horror is real

 We all know, when watching a horror movie, that running into a dark house in the middle of nowhere, while there is an electric storm brewing, is bad enough, but then once in that house, running to the attic, or the basement, is, of course, a NO-NO); as is splitting up and deciding to check things out on your own or with just one other person.  We know that when a kid says there is something in the closet and the parent (a douchebag, indeed) belittles the child’s fear, walking over to the closet opening the door, and bragging that SEE, nothing in there! We all know that once the lights go out, the kid is in trouble! We all know that horror is not only a director's delight or a writer's cathartic ability to account for his or her nightmare! But that horror is not only a fictional piece of art but in the times of TRUMP, HORROR IS REAL!

 

Trump told us he would gently go into that good night, Trump, was explicit that once he thought he was losing the presidential vote, he would do whatever nefarious naughtiness it took to first remain out of jail, and secondly remain as the King of America! And now all you 70 million fools who voted for Trump, because he says he hates like you, chastises like you, Trump is now infecting the Pentagon, like the CORONAVIRUS has infected (under the Trump Administration), and THIS should make all of you so-called red-capped, white hooded and anti-blue states MAGA/Evangelicals/FOX/Limbaugh supporters a bit worried because ALL of this WILL affect even you.

 

I am so tired of hearing oh it's just Trump/well you know he is crazy/it's our base, so we as GOP politicians must place our careers first and foremost over freedom politicians/give him some time/voter fraud in states where Trump lost or is losing, ASSHOLES, ignoring the fact that the PENTAGON, is the next target for TRUMP to flex his authoritarian muscle. BE AFRAID AMERICA, and if you are not then you deserve to become just like the North Koreans working in the concentration camps. I FOR ONE DON’T PLAN ON THAT!

WTF-Compromise

 So, now, we are told, we must permit the sad-sack sociopath, neurotic narcissist, continue to ruminate, perseverate, about being a loser, and do absolutely nothing about it, until this immature thug, is either talked out of his LSD trip into UNREALITY LAND and or someone with any kind of spine says, Hit the Road Jack!

 

So now, as the cowards and HYPOCRITES identified as GOP Senators, do their walk of shame (you know, exit a meeting room in the Senate Chambers try to find an elevator or an exit, but before they can are actually asked to answer honestly about their DISHONESTY!) pretend that democracy does not exist; America can view how a subservient actually function, and how impotent politicians within the Republican Party become nothing more than a virus themselves, dangerous to the health and welfare of America!

 

And finally, through all of this, we are told by Talking Heads that Biden needs to compromise with the GOP. What The Fuck is compromise, when in fact the very FACT of Biden’s nomination is still not recognized!

A tribunal or two

 International War Crimes Tribunals are courts of law established to try those accused of committing atrocities and crimes against humanity in wartime. These include genocide, torture, and rape. ... Others, such as the Nuremberg Trials of 1945, were held under the authority of the Allied forces after World War II. The Nuremberg Code aimed to protect human subjects from enduring the kind of cruelty and exploitation the prisoners endured at concentration camps.

 

“Wehret den Anfängen,” which means: “Resist the beginnings.” How can we be indifferent when we see thousands of innocent civilians, fleeing murder and abuse in their countries of origin, rounded up and placed in detention centers, abused, families separated, people placed in cages, children dying? We need to stop dehumanizing migrants and brutalizing our law-enforcement agents. We need to reunite the families that were separated at the border instead of keeping them apart. We need better policies at the border, and we need to change US policies that have led to many of the conditions in the countries these people are trying to escape. (Boston University)

 

By the time President Donald Trump privately told journalist Bob Woodward on Feb. 7 that the coronavirus was “deadly stuff” transmitted by air, a threat “more deadly” than the flu, the warnings around him had been rampant. Ending on November 9, 2020,/38,060 new cases of COVID have been reported/239,000 deaths/and an estimated 10.2 million positive cases. n Fiscal Year (FY) 2019, the United States government detained over 500,000 people in a sprawling system of over 200 jails across the country run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).545 infants and children have been separated and left as orphans.

 

As an American citizen, as a human being, as a person with morals, values a conscience, respect for due process, and the law. I BELIEVE, that upon the removal of Trump and then HIS entire swamp of monsters, WE THE PEOPLE, demand an establishment of Domestic Crimes not only against Humanity but Domestic Crimes which have defiled our Constitution. It IS not, enough for me that we voted out Trump, but I want justice for the Graft, as understood in American English, is a form of political corruption, being the unscrupulous use of a politician's authority for personal gain. Similarly, political graft occurs when funds intended for public projects are intentionally misdirected in order to maximize the benefits to private interests.

 

The GOP has resisted, so far just the fair election process of 2020, they are fighting to remain in power in the Senate, and must imagine by doing so, more and more and more crimes will be committed and gotten away with. Are we ALL, not ready for true JUSTICE and EQUITY to return? And please Dear Talking Heads, stop telling me, how much more bipartisan the Dems must be because two wrongs do not make a right. Have any of you paid any attention to continuous denial and dismissal by the Republicans to ever play fair!

a bit of laughter

 This morning, Joe and I actually spent about half an hour laughing. YES, laughing, having fun, me not being dour, he not concerned how emotional I am handling the entire fiasco which has been and still IS Trump. It was silliness that created the brevity, stuff that usually happened all the time between us, until, I, like so many other humans, realized the inhumane actions and intentionally harmful predictions of Trump and all of his Domestic Terrorists enabling and enhancing this despot! And my poor husband, worried as I, but managing to try and find some sliver of a silver lining, became as consumed with the calamities of the crimes and cons, and more so, how I was evolving into a sullen, wallowing hole, of thinking EVIL has triumphed! We laughed, and finally, realizing how happy we seemed at that moment, hugged, kissed, and Joe said to me, “remember when this was normal!”

 

I share this personal tidbit, because I am certain in households, partnerships, marriages, roommates, and any other kind of defined relationships, the dread of doom, has become as thick as the saying “the fog of war!” It is a circumstance, right in front of our eyes, yet seeing it, is so very difficult! None of us asked to be belittled, beaten, bullied, betrayed, bewildered, but those of us, who were raised on empathy, facts, love, consideration, caring, have become the enemy. A projected, enemy by insecure, emasculated, immature, idiots, pretending that somehow Jesus and Washington won the revolution, slavery was a smart capitalistic machination, Nazi’s represent the qualities of this nation’s future, just placing your hand over your heart wearing a red cap as the flag is raised, is indeed enough Patriotism, AND, swearing allegiance to anyone who tells your truth, not the actual factual truth, is enough to make your hate and fears viable and relevant!

 

I was elated with the Biden/Harris victory, and I did permit a sense of relief to penetrate, long enough to let laughter re-enter my psyche. But, look around all of us who danced in the streets, as the new clichĂ© goes, we have indeed released the Kraken, and this Orange Monster, who always wanted to name prisoners, wants to take them and destroy them! I want the spontaneity to return in my life, my life with Joe, but the days and weeks and months ahead, still require the strength and motivation to STOP Trump and his minions from even more unfathomable destructive behaviors which will only destroy democracy!

Lonely People

 “All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved” (Eleanor Rigby/Lennon/McCartney)

 

Pretending to be more than just the guy who cleans the elephant poop, after the grand Pooba, strides along the circus route, Little Lindsey, puts on his angry pouty face, deriding the FAKE PRESS, for having the audacity to read the numbers of votes, and declare Biden the winner, never once daring to place the words loser and Trump in the same sentence. Paying attention to the vote count and the Electoral College is a fun-filled fantasy for flighty fidgety frightened Lindsey, but to admit out loud that as of today, November 8, 2020, the United States has witnessed 103,657 new cases of COVID-19, well those are too factual in ineffectual in making the case that Trump ever was or will be an empathetic leader, only a pathetic piece of a sordid past! (So one has to wonder, is Little Lindsey worrying about some of the emails that Putin hacked not only from the DNC in 2016 but ALSO from the RNC/OR has he just permitted his core to melt like that of a nuclear reactor)

 

Pompous, because if he projects an image of power, he thinks no one will notice that he is nothing but a pissant of a peon, pretending that growing a beard gives him character and charm, Teddy (Raphael) Cruz, pontificates, hardly moving his lips as he speaks, that the 2020 election is a sham and in shambles because whatever hacking took place in 2016 had not been as resilient or reliable for 2020. (Remember, how close Beto came to winning the Texas Senate race, but in TEXAS, the rigging of elections is still strong and intact) Somehow when Jesus, decided NOT to live up to his promise to Heidi Cruz and Daddy Cruz, making Teddy the GOP nominee in 2016, Teddy suddenly believed maybe HE, instead should become God, and perform miracles; like insisting American voter’s votes are invalid, and only those HE suggests are legal matter! Cruz is a shyster, unlike Trump, because, Cruz’s deviousness comes with complete sentences, which sound intelligent. Like Trump, however, no matter a word salad or not of fiction, the bottom line of any communication is to be used ONLY for the good of self. There is no U.S. when it comes to Cruz, just ME! And oh yeah, Cruz, talks numbers but has yet to mention the over 238,000 deaths from COVID-19 in this nation. 

 

Lennon and McCartney asked about all the lonely people Graham and Cruz and Trump, are three of the loneliest people, too caught up in their own selfish, self-serving gyrations and machinations. Then, Lennon and McCartney asked where do the lonely people come from and where do they belong. For me, Graham/Cruz/Trump has always been here, and know they have no other place to go as long as humans decide that permitting evil to exist, is a priority!

NOISE or NEWS

 NOISE: a sound, especially one that is loud or unpleasant or that causes disturbance. Irregular fluctuations that accompany a transmitted electrical signal but are not part of it and tend to obscure it. NEWS: newly received or noteworthy information, especially about recent or important events. Information not previously known to someone. MEDIA BULL SHIT: We ask leading questions. We ask limiting questions. We ask questions that assume a certain answer. 

 

It was so wonderful, said Joe, my husband, bluntly, to me, (as we were watching the Biden/Harris Super Spreader Events in almost any civilized and intelligence riddled urban area in the U.S.), to have read a really positive blog I had written on  Saturday, November 7, 2020, ‘Defying Gravity!’ He added, seeing me feel less oppressed and worried was, for him a sight for loving eyes. And Joe was correct, because, for that moment in my history, I actually witnessed Good, triumph over Evil, even, (albeit for a fleeting nanosecond in the cosmos of time,) but breathing began again, and the intensity of the gravity of selfish, self-serving, insecure was lessened! I permitted myself to not let the urge NOT to worry, surround me, or was IT, smother me.

 

Never one to trust Trump or McConnell, or the minions of MAGA maggots, and GOP Goonies, Evangelical End Timers, or the Good Nazi’s, I understood, that basking in a glow of mirrors, as in smoke and mirrors, was okay, (languishing in the sunlight of transparency, was not at all ready for Prime-Time Players, yet!) I could and should have celebrated the actions and actual emotions of people who cared about Democracy, and reluctantly let go of the paranoia of knowing that so far fact has not mattered and only falsehoods have held tight! But even though it was the Media who proclaimed Biden/Harris the victors, I too felt the foot of the oppressor lifted, and I breathed, and as I said inhaled and exhaled, and actually did it again and again!

 

And then today, even beginning with the NEWS of last night, which suddenly became the NOISE of today, and turned into MEIDA BULL SHIT, all that the Talking Heads seems fixated on, two questions for which we all know the answer, and I am so tired of hearing: The first will Trump concede (DUH), and the other, even more, upsetting to me, will we now see less partisanship in the past. Questions of course silly and time-consuming, and answers which already seem obvious. TRUMP WAS PLAYING GOLF, Trump now has at least 12 legal actions, Jared Kushner is telling Trump to fight on…and then so far, if you want to count any GOP politicians who have almost congratulated Biden/Harris, say Mittens Romney/ W. Bush/ and the ever-guilty creature who has gotten away with his own politician vengeance, Chris Christie!  

 

Oh and by the way, today, America broke yet another record, under Trump’s Administration, as we pretend to ponder What Will Trump Do…132,700 new cases were posted in the US/1000 new deaths in the US added to the total of 238,000 deaths, and the wham bam thank you Trump/Pence total of 10 million cases in the US. NEWS/NOISE AND MEDIA BULL SHIT  what a toxic combo of stupid!
