“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” Trump wrote . “Open the F***in’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell — JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”

That’s what the President of the U.S. sent out on his “Truth” Social account. Iran called it “vile” and I think most sane people would agree. But then, there are Trump supporters. WTF is wrong with those people.

God. I am so embarrassed for our country.

Trump says it’s ‘not possible’ for the U.S. to pay for Medicaid, Medicare and day care: ‘We’re fighting wars’

I’m not worried that he could ever end those programs, but every Republican who sold their soul to get this man elected should be very worried. You want to de-fund the retirement of the largest generation in U.S. history. That’s your platform. Remember the official R.N.C. platform (at least in 2020) was “to support the President”. No kidding, that was the whole thing. No wonder you guys hate democracy, because you won’t be able to win an election with this clown.

I did not make Saturday’s protest due to a last minute scheduling conflict. We even bought a professional looking sign! But I was there in spirit. An estimated 8 million people showed up! God bless this movement and the good people who support it. America is a secular nation and a democracy. Our forefathers rejected tyranny, whether by kings or religion. No oligarchy! No theocracy!

‘No Kings’ protests live updates: More than 8 million turned out across all 50 states, organizers say

Witness St. Paul, Minnesota where an estimate 200,000 people showed up!

Murphy on ‘$1.5 BILLION’ stock trade before Trump Iran announcement: ‘Mind blowing corruption’

Oil traders bet millions minutes before Trump’s Iran talks post
By “Oil Traders” I think they mean “Trump, his Family and Friends”.

Trump tells white Fox News host that immigrants who should be barred from US don’t have ‘your genetics’

I really thought I’d like this guy. He seemed pretty common sense when he ran. But then, when he was elected, he immediately started to show his true colors. First, he didn’t want to wear a suit, but rather wanted to keep his Gen X “Hoodie and shorts”, “style”, on the floor of the U.S. Senate. This was his first tell. He did not understand why he was supposed to wear a suit. Spoiler, it’s because he wasn’t John Fetterman U.S. citizen any more. He had become the elected representative of the good people of Pennsylvania. You wear the suit to dignify THEM and the job to which you have had the honor of being elected. The reason a Judge wears a robe. It is a symbol of the office. Not a glorification of the individual. This lack of understanding showed Fetterman had no intention of representing his constituents. He was there for himself.

This will help the economy for sure. Even though we have a national shortage of Americans who want to do this lonely and difficult job this is definitely going to help.

Trump’s cancellation of licenses for immigrant truckers takes effect

Trump’s White House ballroom is too big, architect says, as 2nd panel prepares to vote on it

Actually I am not against the creation of a White House ballroom. It really is something that was long needed. But, as always, the egomaniac has screwed it up.
The White House has always presented a more modest environment, as befits a democracy, as opposed to the opulence of royalty. Trump does not understand that.

So now Israel tells us what to do. Just so you know, all indications were that Iran was ready to make a deal with the U.S. on Friday. Well this will distract from the Epstein files, right?

Because I’m tired.

I try to stay positive about the world, but it really is very hard. Today we bombed Iran. Really? As Trump desperately looks for anything that will distract people from the Epstein files. Dear God. I have friends and family who voted for this man. I saw this man break the law MULTIPLE TIMES! On January 6th 2021, on both of his “perfect” phone calls. The first, to Zelenskyy to try and pressure him in to making it look like there was an investigation into his Democratic opponent, the second to the Georgia head of elections requesting he “find” him 11,000 additional votes. That was with my own eyes and ears. He was convicted of multiple felonies, he has been charged with fraud three times and only got out of the first two times by using his money and connections. He has been accused of sexual assault DOZENS of times! He has made weird and inappropriate remarks on camera and/or microphone about women (even his own daughter) many times! He was sued over 7,300 times BEFORE he first ran for president. He cheated on all three of his wives and paid hush money to do it, and people support him? Religious (supposedly) people no less.

This is all about stupidity. The inability of people to let go of a belief when it is proven wrong. This is what all the tragic moments in history start with, stupidity.

Hegseth says Pentagon canceling troops’ attendance at top universities

So now we don’t want our top officers to attend Harvard or Columbia, or Georgetown or Yale or Brown because they may be exposed to “harmful” ideas, like, you know, Philosophy, Ethics and Logic. What the f**k?

On 26 September 1983, during the Cold War, Stanislav Petrov was the duty officer at the command center for the Oko nuclear early-warning system when the system reported that a missile had been launched from the United States, followed by up to four more. Petrov correctly judged the reports to be a false alarm.
His subsequent decision to disobey orders, against Soviet military protocol, is credited with having prevented an erroneous retaliatory nuclear attack on the United States and its NATO allies that would have likely resulted in a large-scale nuclear war. An investigation later confirmed that the Soviet satellite warning system had indeed malfunctioned. Because his decision may have averted a retaliatory nuclear strike, Petrov is often credited as having “saved the world”
-from Wikipedia
He reasoned, “The Americans would not attack with five missiles, it would be a hundred,” Petrov was the only duty officer on staff who had been educated in civilian schools and not a military academy. All the other officers admitted they would have followed orders and reported the attack.

Stupidity reigns supreme

Amazon’s tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts

45% increase in profits, 86% decrease in taxes, and all it cost was a over-priced documentary contract and a few contributions. I wonder if Trump calls his new Amazonian f(r)iend “New Jeff”.
