Presidential pardons have been abused before, but not on a scale like this…

Trump declares fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction

At least Trump’s business buddies will profit. That’s something, right?

Yesterday Rob Reiner the famed actor, director, writer and producer was murdered along with his wife in their home. Sadly, it appears that his son Nick may have been the assailant. Here is what our esteemed leader decided to write on his “Truth Social” platform…

“Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS, He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before.”

What an asshat of an individual. Just remember a lot of people consider him their leader.

Antifa is a loose association of groups who are “Anti-Fascist”. Which is a good thing, since fascism is a type of government like the Nazis had. Really it is a bunch of very liberal Art majors who aren’t a threat to anybody. They show up when Nazis or the KKK are having rallies to show some resistance to those groups. So does that mean that Trump and his supporters are “Pro-Fascist”? Yes, yes it does. As we have seen, Trump does tick all the boxes on a definition of fascist.

National parks cut free entry for MLK Day, add Trump’s birthday

Once again the elites will force the children of the poor and middle class to secure their profits by sacrificing their lives. And the innocent people of another country will feel the power of the world’s largest military. The U.S. has energy independence. Venezuela’s oil is not for the U.S., it is for the billionaires wallets.

Trump says land strikes in Venezuela will ‘start very soon’

The US attacked Venezuelan boats it says are carrying drugs. Is Venezuela sending drugs to the US?

I’ve lived across the street from a minister for 20 years. He has always seemed to me to be a true Christian and a good man. He walks the walk. I asked him a question once. I told him I was having a debate with my conservative friends. All of them believed that the ends justify the means. I said I thought that the ends NOT justifying the means was one of the central points a just about every religion. Did he agree? He said, “Yes, but I would reword what your said. I would say, If you think you must do something wrong to do God’s will, then you have lost faith in God.”

Mic drop

You will never see the whole set of documents and evidence the government has collected from the Epstein investigations. That’s my prediction. The news media has portrayed Trumps apparent change-of-heart on the matter as Trump knowing he couldn’t win. I don’t believe it. I think this whole time they were stalling, there was a plan 2, and I’ll bet it involved editing Trump and Republican mega donors out of those documents as much as possible. I don’t know much about how Trump’s hand picked from his personal attorneys DOJ handles documents or even how the normal DOJ would handle those files. But by carefully moving key people out of certain roles and replacing them with loyalists, I think you might get it done.
First Trump comes out all for it, then Mike Johnson, the suddenly all the Republicans? I smell a fix.

More war for oil.

I was reading an article on socialism in America when I saw a name I recognized, and I noticed that November 5th was the 170th birthday of Eugene V. Debbs. A perennial candidate for president on the American Socialist Party ticket back in the 1910’s and 1920’s. So who was he?

Your Honor, years ago I recognized my kinship with all living beings, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on earth. I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.

Scary stuff that socialism. I learned about Debbs from Kurt Vonnegut.

Quotes from Debbs

This power has been abused by almost every president, but no one has abused it like Donald Trump. He has openly pardoned fraudsters who have promised him loyalty or donations. And now, this…

Trump pardons Giuliani, others who allegedly tried to overturn 2020 election

Do not forget that these people concocted a plot to overthrow the 2020 election. That was an act of treason. They wanted to usurp the will of the people and install a man who did not win the election.

That isn’t democracy. Continue reading →

But Trump won’t release the SNAP emergency fund that helps feed poor American families.

Trump threatens to withhold SNAP funding until shutdown ends

Never forget who this man is. He has sent men accused of no crime other than entering our country illegally to violent foreign prisons with no hope of release. He has blown up 15 boats in the Caribbean killing all but three of the occupants. With no evidence that they were committing any crimes. (We know that because all three survivors were repatriated, no charged with a crime.) That is quite literally murder by the way. He has created his own masked goon squad of violent storm troopers who regularly grab people off the street without a warrant of due process and have attacked peaceful protestors on multiple occasions. Even shooting at a pastor who was praying. He fomented a riot and insurrection at the capitol, He has openly taken bribes. He has pardoned a record number of criminals who have either given him money or pledged support for him. He has used lawsuits and illegal means to intimidate the press and silence them. He has used the Justice Department to pursue his enemies.

And people we know put him there and gave him this power. Sweet Jesus, what happened to our country.

Trump instructs Pentagon to ‘immediately’ start testing US nuclear weapons

Nuclear testing was ruled unnecessary by the militaries of all the major world powers 40+ years ago. It’s an ecological nightmare and computer models are highly accurate. It also allows your enemies to see the power of your warheads. Trump is an idiot, and a very dangerous one at that.

Good times

I could not attend Saturday’s “No Kings” protest, but I was there in June and I support the movement. Let this gentleman from, of all places, Alabama, explain why…

Now, if you are still not sure which side is the “right” side. Look at Trump’s response to the protest.

Are all Republicans racists? Maybe not, but ALL white racists vote Republican. This is how some of them talk when they think no one else is listening.
