Mid Terms Will Determine Everything

 I am filled with trepidation when I think of what's at stake in the mid-term elections.  Perhaps never before has our democracy been so on the line.  

I belong to no political party.  My agenda has always been on the liberal side of things.  I believe in the simple truth that you can only judge how successful a country is by how it takes care of its most vulnerable members.  Based on that, this democracy is failing.  Our children are poorly educated and it's a fight to get them fed, clothed and medically sound if they are in the lower income brackets.  Our mentally ill people do not get treatment, they get arrested.  I could write an entire manifesto on how public health has always failed this class of people.  And lastly, we warehouse our elderly people in disgustingly inappropriate care facilities where they are abused, robbed and sometimes killed.  America's report card is not so great.

But I am also optimistic that if we all come out of this ridiculous malaise we've been in for decades, not holding our elected officials accountable, things might get better.

The mid-terms will define where we go as a nation.  I am hoping that women, ALL women, will realize that overturning Roe vs. Wade means we are once more relegated to second class citizenry.  I hope my sisters will come out and vote.  If we lose body autonomy, we lose everything.  I do not believe abortion is a good method of birth control.  I do believe preventing pregnancy is a relatively simple thing.  Still, my body - hands off.  

Everything is riding on the mid term elections.  I am cautiously optimistic that the females in this country will not let me down, that we will realize what a powerful voice we have with our vote.  Then I hope future generations of young women are encouraged to go into politics, to grab a seat at the table.  It's not just enough that we vote the rich old white bastards out of office, we need to replace them with smart, savvy women of every color.  

I am sick to death of politicians being elected to Washington, tying on the feedbag and gorging themselves at the public trough.  Everytime I watch someone elected to the house or senate, I will see a picture of them 3 years into their term and they will have gained 30 pounds.  Term limits, campaign finance reform and equal representation (do you hear me Wyoming and Montana) would go a long way in convincing me this country has a chance..

Meanwhile, I'll be looking at Belize, Costa Rica, France and Canada as my potential next home should things fall apart (even further) here.  

THE LIE BUCKET IS DAMN NEAR EMPTY

 We've all been around for the lies Donald Trump throws around like paper towels after a hurricane.  Most of the lies are absurd, and thank you, Universe, for giving me enough of a brain to know when I'm being lied to.  Most of the people I know also know that if Donald Trump's little anus-like puckery lips are moving, the lies are forthcoming.  It would be laughable, except he poses such a danger to this nation and democracy.  

You have to wonder about the intelligence of someone who decides to run for president after decades of shady business practices.  Did he not know how much scrutiny he'd be under as a presidential candidate, and even more so, as a president?  No, alas, he did not.  Because Trump doesn't know much of anything and he guesses at the rest.

But this morning's lie --- "all I have to do is think documents unclassified," is about as childish and surly as the Trump idiot who wakes each morning.  

The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals finds absurdity in every piece of Trump's defense.  As the saying goes, you can put an incompetent judge on the bench who will side with you every time, but the real test is what kind of character most judges possess when they take the oath of office.  Bottom line, no judge wants to be characterized as talentless, incompetent and devoid of legal acumen.  Except the little slut in Florida who gave Trump a Special Master.  God rest your soul, sweetheart.  Let's see what happens to you next.  We'll all enjoy it.

I digress.  

You can't think documents unclassified.  Donald Trump thought he was presidential  material and it turned out he could get elected, but he'd never be presidential.  That's where his "thinking" stems from.  The deep trench Trump has dug for himself is his familial grave.  His businesses are collapsing, his children will be indicted and the Trump name, now and forever after, will be synonymous with the stinking pile of fecal devastation he has left in his wake.  Sadly, there isn't enough gold leaf in the world to cover up the $hit that this man and his morally bankrupt children have brought to all of us.

Lipstick on a Pig Sty of the Trump family.  They may all live in palaces, but the thing that they actually CAN take with them, their characters, are beyond worthless.

Roevember

I certainly hope that every eligible woman in this country votes in the mid-term elections.  The mid-terms will determine our autonomy over our bodies.  I believe most intelligent women voters in this country understand this.  I believe we will turn out en masse to defeat the old white men who would dictate our futures.  I believe we will be an overwhelmingly large blue wave.  We will tell our society that we will not stand for any man dictating to us what we can or cannot do with our own bodies.  As I was thinking about this earlier today, I realized the sad sad state of our country, because this kind of fascist control would have been unheard of in the past fifty years.  And I also was thinking that, despite our willingness to turn out the vote and turn this nightmare around, women are truly sick to death of coming in to clean up the mess the men of the world have made of things.

I hope that every woman who votes against the religious right dinosaurs realizes her power.  If we can shut these rich old white men down (as well as their sycophant hair sprayed counterparts), think of what else we can do.  Let's talk about it and let's do it.  Women can think progressively.  Forward thinking change makes the status quo of this country very very nervous.  Let's give them a reason to run for the Xanax.  Let's take this country not back, but over.  Because I, for one, am very over this utter bullshit.

Trump's Playbook is As Worn Out as His Face

 There we have Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, spouting his usual victimization rhetoric and calling Joe Biden an Enemy of the State.

Come on Donald.  Get a clue.  The only people buying into your sad and unenlightened statements are the radical right bearded (both sexes) hillbillies.  

Donald Trump is the Enemy of the United States of America.  The FBI had enough evidence to gain a search warrant.  And where, or where, are the missing classified documents?  My guess they are with Putin, or at least, in a briefcase waiting for Putin.  Donald does, afterall, owe a huge favor to Putin, having helped him win the election in 2016.  Trump was supposed to stay in power for four more years to satisfy Putin's intent to destroy the United States.  Sadly, the orange clown quickly proved his incompetence to the majority of American voters.  He lost the election.  Putin is mad.  Probably a good thing Mar-a-LOCO doesn't have an eighteenth floor.  Or is it?

Donald Trump is a Liar.  He projects all that he is onto his enemies.  Any first year psychology student understands Trump's behavior, something he never will because of his complete lack of insight.

Anyhow, good to see there's no new tricks up the Donald's sleeves.  It's the same crap he campaigned on the first time around and frankly, it wins him no new voters.  In fact, he's losing so badly in every arena, it is highly doubtful the GOP will want to nominate him.  If they do, it will be just one more pathetic attempt by a bunch of old white men afraid to die without leaving a stain on history.

Are We Asking the Right Questions?

 After watching Joe Biden take on the Trumpian sector of America last night, I couldn't help but ask myself if the government is asking the right questions.

For example, why would supposedly well-educated and thoughtful people who have managed to rise to the level of serving in the United States Congress so blindly follow a bully like Donald Trump?

There can be only one answer to this question.  Donald Trump has blackmail goods on these people.  It is my belief that the evidence of that was located in the safe at Mar-a-LOCO, and is now in the possession of the FBI.  So Trump has quite a bee in his bonnet.  A hive for that matter.

The right questions are not being asked.  Why?  Why would intelligent people follow Donald Trump over the cliff of vicious insanity and moral bankruptcy.  The answer surely must lie in whatever they found in his safe.  

No wonder his behavior is so self-righteous and vicious.  Now the FBI has the goods on him.

Is Facebook Dangerous?

 I have a long rap sheet with Facebook wherein I'm suspended, restricted or otherwise harrassed by them because of things I say.  Please note, I do not say anything except the truth.  But Facebook doesn't like the truth, especially about Republicans or Donald Trump.

I'm just wondering to what length Facebook can go in depriving me of my first amendment rights or invading my privacy.

Is it a coincidence that shortly after Facebook banned me, I started getting e-mail from the Donalds Trump?  The first was from the Great Grifter himself, asking me if I believed he was being targeted by democrats.  The second was from Don, Jr., which I took to be another another stab at democracy centering on the FBI raid of Mar-a-LOCO.    The problem I have with receiving these e-mails is that I had already marked the senders as spam.  The e-mail even warned me that the source was from a banned contact in my e-mail.

What is Facebook really up to?  I'm going to have to close my account.  I do not trust Zuckerberg, nor do I believe the algorithms used to suspend people are necessarily automatic keyed to specific phrases.  I am on Facebook's fecal roster.  I understand that.  But just how far are these people going to harass me?  I merely stated that treason is punishable by execution.  I did not call for the  execution of Donald Trump.  

Zuckerberg and Facebook are absolutely out of control.  The only thing we can do is close our accounts and go to Tribel.

Zuckerberg and All the Other Fascists are Out of Control

 It will come as no surprise to many of my readers that I am, again, banned from Facebook for 29 days.  This is due to a comment I made on another post wherein I stated the punishment for treason is execution.  (Don't take my word for it.  Ask the Rosenbergs.)  I neither said Donald Trump should be executed (but oh what a lovely end to this nightmare that would be), nor did I even intimate that this was an acceptable solution to the problem a fascist like Trump poses.  But a fascist like Zuckerberg is watching his tax haven status crumble around him, so he thinks by banning someone like me, other people won't be "infected" by my "radical left" philosophies.  Zuckerberg thinks he's now Big Brother.  So here's some "Newspeak" for you, Mark.

We won't be deterred by being banned from any platform.  I am now closing my Facebook account because I do not want to support a fascist platform.  I will not be back on Facebook.  Ever.  I've opened up an account on Tribel.  Find me there.  Join me there.   

The millionaires and billionaires are spending their millions and billions to control appointments to the Supreme Court.  They spend this money to insure fascist public office candidates get the best shot at winning an election, simply because they have big money behind. them.  They do this all in the name of the hopeless greed infection they suffer.  There is never enough for these people.  If they don't have us working class heroes to look down on, then they really have no validation for their behavior.  We're supposed to admire their estates, their country houses, their mansions, their penthouses.  Maybe some of us do, but we wouldn't trade our integrity nor our sense of justice for all to be you.

Their everlasting free ride, they can see it fading fast,

so they grab a piece of something that they think is going to last.

(Apologies to Steely Dan)

That is what's happening here.  The United States is not faltering.  The oligarchs are.  And their desperation fills the air with the incredible stink they created to become uber-rich. Karma is not a bitch.  It's a cup of IRS tea.

We're taking our country back.   And here's the ultimate insult.  You bastards are going to have to pay your fair share of taxes for programs and policies you don't believe in.  Don't like it?  

Move.  I hear Russia loves its Oligarchs.
