WHERE YOU WILL FIND INSIGHTS INTO 

            REPUBLICAN CORRUPTION

WITH A LITTLE HUMOR HERE AND THERE

           Editor's Pet Peeve

PROBABLY BECAUSE I WAS RAISED BY PARENTS WHICH WERE REAL CHRISTIANS . it pisses me off to hear the Republican Party claim to be the Party of Christians when their core beliefs are the exact opposite of the teaching of Christ. Even sicker are the Religious leaders who fall for it.  Would someone show me where Christ ever once took from the poor and gave to the rich. Show me a time that Christ wasn't compasionate to the poor, outcast and strangers. Now, show me a Republican who shares Christ's values. Some things just don't mix, So we need to leave Politics out of Religion and Religion out of Politics as America's founding fathers intended by proclaiming the separation of Church and State,  My parents were also  Democrats to the core but didnt take their politics to church nor their religion to the polls.

                                 CHEAT, CHEAT, CHEAT, 

The SAVE ACT is only the beginning, Have you been listening to almost every speach Trump makes? He is drilling into every Republican's little weak brain that the only way Democrats can win is to cheat. You can now begin to hear it echoed by his talking parrotts like Mike Johnson and others. Trump has already grabbed the 2020 ballots from Fulton County, Georgia which have already been counted over and over by hand and machine, trying to prove his 2020 lie. The Orange Dictator will be coming out with lies of big cheating discovered in them if the Judge allows the dirt bags to manipulate them.  I believe we are going to face in November 2026, Trumps second attempt to overthrow a fair and decisive election in our Country. The difference this time , is that he has a bunch of Republicans who have their heads buried so far up his a..  they       haven't seen the real world in years, They have, they do and will support every lie he tells.  If you don't think this Dictator will use Military power against American citizens, you need to look back just a couple months ago.

                     Trumps illegal tariffs bite the dust

The Supreme court in a 6 to 3 vote determined what every Democrat has said all along. His tariffs are illegal. Therefore Donald Trump owes every American household a $1,751. refund, that is the cost of his tariffs to each American household to date.  Of course he pitched a lying fit, then turned around and added 10% tariffs again, temporarily he said. If he can't rob America one way, he tries another. PAY UP TRUMP.  He got us for over $200 Billion before the Supreme court stopped himthat time. Wonder how many Billions he can sack up before they get around to stopping him this time? O yeah he wants tariffs to go into a slush fund that only he will control.

  DEMOCRACY IS  DYING  WE THE PEOPLE NO LONGER  EXIST 

Yet We Must Fight On

The Citizens United case was brought befote the Supreme Court by a Republican  backed non-profit Organization specifically to take Hillary Clinton down in the 2008 Primay, because they felt that she was the candidate most likely to defeart John McCain in the 2008 election. Of course to their great surprise  Barack Obama beat him instead. The Citizens United ruling allowed big Corporations  to spend unlimited amounts of money through Super Pacs to use in advertising to either promote or discredit a political Candidate.. This ruling has turned our election cycles into a money game  and our TVs, radios and even our road signs into their playing field. This means that before the winning Candidate even thinks about taking office He or She is already indebted to the big Corporations who takes credit for getting them elected and the expectations of them supporting legislation to benefit that Corporation. Another way that big Corp controls our Politicians and our Country is (since it's against the law for them to buy off Polititcians directly) these big Corporations sets up dark money non-profit shell organizations under a special IRS codes (  501(c)(4)  ) which doesn't require them to identify who they donate to.  Big Corporations can then use this non-profit dark money to buy off our Politicians. Republicans started this pocket lining circle game in 2008 and lean into it, and support it as well as get rich from it. Democratic Candidates are being directed to serve their constituents and not be swayed by big Corporation buy-out ( listen to Elizabeth Warren's video in our article section )  whether or not they follow the Republican money trail or not will be up to the individual candidate  So now you know why your President. Senate and Represenatives are not serving you. They are allowing themselves to be bought out by big Corporations and are serving their wishes not the wishes or needs of the people of America.. You will be forgotten until election time again, when big Corp will once again spend Billions to praise their choices and dirty their challengers.  Therefore we the people are not running our country anymore. Democracy is in critical condition,  Sure they still let us vote, after we have been programed with six months of lies and propaganda. to vote for Polititians who will serve big Corporations instead of the people of these United States. Note: Obama fought against and warned of the consequences of the Citizens United ruling , but to no avail. The Good Book teaches that "the love for money is the root of all evil".The taking of the rule of our Country from the people and giving it to big Corportions and Billionaire donors is a prime example.Which defeats the core principles of our Constitution.

       OUR  "GET WELL SOON"  WISHES FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP

We wish the President a full recovery from his recent partial hemorrhoidectomy  in which Majorie Taylor Green was removed. This hemorrhoid had hung in there being a close, constant companion for many years but just didn't know when to go away nor give the President a minute of relief , especially while he sat on his throne and wrote X post in the middle of the night. I guess it just finally came to the point that her, Leavitt or Bondi one had to go. It's hard to imagine such an a..hole but we are excited that he finally made the decision to get at least partial relief and maybe take a little pain out of those late night X post.  We wish him a full and fast recovery 

                                         LIE  ALERT

If for any reason you have been having to work doubles or taken on a second job to make ends meet and just haven't had a chance to hear all the lies and exaggerations that the rest of America has had the displeasure of listening to. Good news for you. You can tune into Trump's State Of The Union address on Feburary  24th at 9pm and get your fill. But first you need to get out your check book and your bills for the month to compare them with what you're about to hear. You will hear all about his great accomplishments in his Politically driven assaults on States which didn't support him in 2024, You will hear about the millions of violent criminals ( like those who rolled through a stop sign or maybe ran a red light) that he has deported. The Golden Age of America where he and his billionaire buddies now have gold lined pockets on the backs of America's most vunerable, by having disability and senior benefits cut, You will hear that your check book and stack of bills are liars and that you actually have it made in the shade, You will hear about how great his tariffs are that you are paying for every time you shop.you will hear that prices are way down across the board regardless of you knowing that they have gone up. So if you haven't heard enough lies lately, be sure to tune in.  UPDATE:  Well....... I told you so. He inherited the worst ever but one year later iits the best ever. One year ago you were s bum but you're rich today, thanks to him.

                          VOTER  SUPPRESSION ACT  101

The SAVE act is not simply voter photo ID requirements. It is a planned voter suppression tool conjured up by Trump and the Republican party. They have showed their true colors through ICE's brutal and inhumane politically driven assaults on States which didn't support Trump in the last election.  They have given big tax breaks to the rich on the backs of America's most vunerable by cutting their benefits which they depended on to merely survive. Trump has put a tariff burden on the backs of all Americans, so that he and his billionaire Corporate buddies could play their line-the -pocket--circle game. Trump has succeeded in alienating many of our Allies and caused global unrest by running his mouth and showing his a.. ,.He and Republicans have lied the American people so much, they know that theres no way they can win a fair and free election.So now being the crooked low-lifes that they are, they have come up with a scheme to scare people away from the polls. They are desperate losers and may even stoop to having ICE agents at the polls to intimidate voters. We must support our voters and encourage those who might have anxiety about voting in person to vote early by mail.  and hope thier votes are able to be counted without interference. The SAVE act also gives Federal access to ballots. This is an open door for Trump and his crooks to over-throw fair elections by manipulating them. We have an lying, untrustworthy Dictator wanna-be  as President and a bunch of crooked Republican Senators and Represenatives who don't have a backbone. Let's get every voter to vote and every vote counted . Let's send these crooks packing.UPDATE  Trump on one of his x post outburst, vows to enforce photo ID even if he does it through executive order. The crook ain't worried about voter ID,  he is determined to intimidate voters.  He knows that his crooked a.. is going down and he is now grasping for air and grabbing for straws. His only last hope is ro intimidate voters and manipulate elections. I wouldn't trust this dishonest Dictator wanna-be anywhere. He has already tried to overthrow one of our Country's fair elections and still spreading lies about it. He is now trying to bully and manipulate the outcome of what should be a fair and free midterm  election. No body is against voter photo ID requirements but voter suppression as provided in the SAVE act is as unAmerican as everything else Trump comes up with.

                               Hakeem  Who  ?

Two years ago most Americans didn't know who Hakeem Jefferies was, nor had ever heard of him. Today he is the Trump Administration's biggest fear as he is poised to take the gavel from pretty boy Johnson in the midterms. Hakeem is sharp and wise to Trump and Republican corruption He has the guts to face them down an put them to backtracking.  Some people seems to think of Hakeem as being a little over aggressive but if you are going up against Trump and his Administration, You ain't gonna get very far honey-pieing and sugar-babying.. You gotta have someone who will look the opposition in the eye and tell them what's what and what's not. Personally I don't think we could have any better than Represenative Jefferies in this position. As a Party facing a Dictator wanna-be and his rogue Administration we need to lay aside any differences within our Party and get behind Hakeem 100% as he and we face the most dishonest, corrupt crooks to have ever entered the Whitehouse doors.

                                LITTLE SYNDROMES

Little man syndrome is a common well known condition causing  the cockiness and temperment of anything which is smaller in stature than its counterparts. Little man syndrome is common in animals and sometimes in men. There is another syndrome which is much more serious and disruptive. This syndrome can usually only be diagnosed by symptom observation. It causes a man to always be on the verge of a tempermental explosion and sometimes attack others on social media in the middle of the night for no apparent reason. He will lash out at anybody who questions anything he does or doesn't do by attacking their ability or even their looks, female news reporters might be called incompotent, fat, ugly or piggy. This syndrome causes a man to have noticeible hate and disrespect for others such as murdered celebrities, American Citizens murdered on the streets by masked thugs, late night show host and especially those who he thinks of as political opponents. This syndrome causes a man to continously praise himself and demands praise from others to shore up his lack of confidence. The rage from this syndrome seems to be intensified by bathroom visits, where once again his masculinity is shattered. This devastating condition is the "Little we-we Syndrome".

                    NO  TIME  FOR  COMPLACENCY

We have all seen that super great ball team become over confident just before getting their butts kicked by a mediocre team.  If the midterms were held today, with all the politically driven ICE assaults, world wide instability, Epstein cover-ups etc. Democrats would win big across the ballot. Midterms are nine months away though and not today. Nine months for Republicans to do what they usually do, calm their chaos and pretend to care about voter's issues. We must remember that American voters are of short memory as proven by their giving Trump a second chance to destroy America. After his failed effort to follow the steps of other Dictators and over-throw  our Country's election. Also remember the $2,000 check that he keeps hinting at? He is holding it until just before the midterms  to "buy" votes for his Republican cronies. We must remind voters of this hypocrisy. There is no time or place to become complacent or in-party unrest. Our opponents in this midterm are about as trustworthy as a nine headed rattlesnake.

                             THANK YOU DEMOCRATS

Republicans deep down are thanking Democrats for their resistance to Trumps craziness. The Democratic resistance is the only thing that has kept Trump from completely and permanently destroying the Republican Party. Thanks to Democrats there is still a slight chance of Republican Party survival once they figure out how to get rid of their biggest hemorrhoid in history. Any Republican who expects to win in the midterms, in 2028 or in facr ever serve publically again, had better cut their ties with Trump and fast. Let him scream and threaten retaliation all he wants, America is no longer listening to Donald J Trump's opinions since he has shown his true colors. Look at his approval ratings ( 36% of the general public and only 33% of the MAGA base and declining ). Those who choose to go down with him are of no benefit to our Country anyway,they are only followers, not leaders. FYI  during the 2018 midterm election cycle his approval rating was 44% and Republicans lost 40 seats 

                     LOWER THAN A SNAKE'S BELLY

I didn't see it but I read somewhere that on his X post, Trump posted a racist short which depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. He is such a dispicable low life.Yet he seems to think that he is better than everyone else and demands his knee pad modeling Cabinet Members to constantly tell him he is. My little seven year old son has more respect for others han the President of the United States does. My seven year old is a bigger man and will apologize when he does someone wrong but the President of the United States is not man enough to. Since he evidently was never taught any respect nor ever learned how to be a repectful person, some adult around him should take his phone away and make him sit in a corner and think about what he did for about ... well forever because he is evidently an un-teachable brat. He actually needs to be taken out behind the wood shed and taught a thing or two.

                                TRUMP  DISPOSABLES

While Trump's Cabinet Members and buddies like Mike Johnson are strutting around like they are invincable, they need to look back a few years to reveal what their future will look like. They are only flash-in-the-pan Trump disposables, being used for his benefit and then to the commode they will go. Many have been loyal, served, covered up for Trump and kissed butt just like his present knee pad modelers are. Where are his former worshippers now?  Where is Mike Pence, Bill Barr, Betsy Devos, Elaine Chao, Richard Spencer, Tom Bossert, Micheal Cohen, Ty Cobb, Anthony Scaramucci, Stephanie Grisham, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Cassidy Hutchinson, James Mattis, Mark Esper, Mark Milley, Rex Tillerson, Nikki Haley, Chris Christy, HR McMaster, John Bolton, John Kelly, Mick Mulvaney, Jerome Powell and Majorie Talor Green to name a few?  Trump's loyalist are like toilet paper to him. They are valuable until they are used then they get flushed. Can anyone name someone close to Trump who has been close for over 4 years and has not yet been wiped on and flushed?

                           THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICA

Yep, the "Golden Age of America" is upon us , gold pocket linings for Trump and his billionaire buddies paid for by the benefit cuts to America's most vunerable, who depend on those benefits to merely survive. I guess that wasn't enough gold for their pockets so he added tariffs on the backs of all Americans. It just about kills Republicans to see any money going to benefit the low or middle income class Americans, when they could be playing their line the pocket circle game with their big corporate buddies instead. That is the whole reason behind the Republican big lie claim of a "trickle down" economy  theory. Money never has nor never will trickle down, money flows up. from working Americans up through the power companies, grocery stores, gas stations etc. The trickle down theory is just an excuse for Republicans to take from the poor and give to the rich. As an example of how Republicans have destroyed programs which were designed by Democrats to help the poor pull themselves out of the poverty gutter.  I have a neigghbor who recently applied for a FHA insured loan, FHA's nit-picky appraiser didn't like the looks of my neighbor's disabled daughter's mobile home which is also located on his property. FHA demanded my neighbor to remove her mobile home from the property (and make her and her family homeless) or be denied the loan. Of course he didn't kick his disabled daughter and her family out onto the street but neither did he get the loan. This is what happens to Democratic programs to help the low income when Republicans sneak in a bunch of restrictions to eliminate people like my neighbor. It's a golden age alright, if you don't think so just ask Trump and his billionaire buddies.

                         WOMEN PROBLEMS

Have you ever noticed that Trump actually hates women who have a heavier or muscular build? Is it really hate or is he jealous that that they might have a bigger  we-we than him? I guess we'll never know,  Personally, I would rather not know than to see him or Rosie either naked.

                         BAND-AID ON A CANCER                   

Can this idiot we have in Washington screw America over any more than he already has? Well he sure keeps trying by turning America's closest allies against us. He is now feuding with and threatening Canada with big tariffs and restrictions. Just what America needs , higher prices on lumber to skyrocket housing prices even more. Trump lied America again about foreign countries paying for tariffs and how manufacturers would flock to America. Well we are paying for his tariffs and manufactures are leaving, according to everybody except Trump. We are paying 100% of Trump's  tariffs already as a little investigating has revealed, There is no price change nor tariff charges on imported goods until our importers pick the products up at the ports of entry. and THEY pay tariffs before they can pick up their shipment.The reason that the end consumer hasn't seen a much larger price hikes in product cost is being temporarily off set by lowering fuel prices.  As we knpw fuel prices are a big factor in the prices of products at consumer level.These lower fuel prices are being driven by a supply glut at this time which is contributed to OPEC lifting production limit restrictions, cheaper winter blends and less winter month driving by consumers. Therefore when fuel prices go back up for any reason , we will not only be hit with higher fuel prices but the full blow of Trumps tariffs on everything else we buy. Tariffs are bad for American consumers and bad for foreign exporters due to reduced sales. Tariffs are good for Washington in that they give Trump and his billionaire squad more money to play the pocket lining circle game with,  To the American consumer tariffs  are  just a form of  federal tax being charged on everything we purchase. This delay in immediate gigantic price hikes from tariffs will give Republicans a chance to do the usual when their sh.. hits the fan. blame it on Democrats.

On a different note if I owned stock I would sell imediately and buy back next summer when they bottom out. A crash looks unavoidable to me with this chaotic idiot at the wheel. 

                    ADMINISTRATION BUILT OF SAND 

The first task of a newly elected President is the nominating of his Cabinet Members. After Nomination they go before the Senate for a hearing to be confirmed or not. Most Presidents elect try to nominate Cabinet Members who are experienced and highly qualified to lead the specific department to which they are being nominated for. Not so with this Administration, Trump's only requirement for his nominees were how much they had donated to his campaign and how fast could they get their MAGA knee pads on.We have as President a person who priortizes lips on his a.. over the issues facing our Country,These picks coupled with his own chaotic dishonesty brings us to what we now have running this Country. We have an enviromentalist/lawyer as Secretary of Health and Human Services, a WWE executive as Secretary of Education, a Trump inner circle loyalist, lobbyist and cover-up artists as the Attorney General, a disgraced ex-Governor as Secretary of  Homeland Security, a ex-DOJ lawyer as FBI Director, a football player as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development a television talkinghead as Secretary of Defense and a broccoli eater as Secretary of Agriculture. As you can see now why America is in the chaos that it is. We have a President and Cabinet who have absolutely no knowledge or respect for the Constitution, the law of the land or the role of congressional oversight. To make things worse, if possible these new department heads were then directed to fire many lifelong public servants who could've been of great value in mentoring and advising  these Cabinet Members who don't have a clue  what their job is. We are quick to blame these department heads when things go crazy and they should be held accountable. The real blame for all the chaos, lawlessness and bloodshed though lays on the shoulders of a unfit for office Trump and a bunch of cowardly Republican Senators. A Builder/Developer with one eye and half sense would never choose sand as a foundation material nor would inspectors with any backbone at all approve it.

           WILL THE REAL LEGENDS PLEASE STAND UP

Homan is saying ICE will be pulling out of Minnesota as their investigations there are finished. That was not an investigation. It was a cruel politically driven assualt by a Dictator wanna-be on an American State which didn't support him in the last election. Trump is a seeker of a legendary name for himself. But he has never nor will he ever be legendary material, no matter what all he plasters his name on. A Legend gives of themselves for the benefit of others. The people of Minnesota who gave of their time and themselves , some to the point of giving their lives  Also the Governor,Mayor and Lawmakers who stood so solidly with Minnesotans during this assault are the real legends and will be remembered as such. Trump has never stood up for anyone for any reason  except for Donald J Trump. May the real legends be forever remembered for their bravery and selfless giving, may the legend seeker find himself a truthful mirror. 

Tom Homan in a recent interview said that they were only deporting criminals. Two sentences later he said that most Americans don't see traffic violations as a crime, but they are. That leads me to wonder if probably ninty percent or more of the millions of violent criminals which Trump and border control braggs about deporting, maybe ran a redlight or rolled through a stop sign and got deported for it?

                                  ICE  vs   MINNESOTA

I like all America have been focused on the politically driven assault of Minnesota by Trump's ICE thugs. We watched with questions and came away with answers. After studing the videos of Renee Goode's murder the scene becomes clearer by answering two questions. Question #1  When Renee told the officer " i'm not mad at you " and started to drive away,  Was there any at all indication of a person intending to ram an officer with her car or harm them in any way?   Question #2 Why would an officer place himself in front of a running vehicle especially when the driver was being cursed  and threatened by other Officers unless.... that Officer had premeditated killing the driver if she tried to lesve?  Therefore after establishing the intentions of both parties we can conclude that Jonathan Ross took upon himself the roles of Judge, Jury  and Executioner in the premeditated murder of Renee Goode.  That murder had the instant support of Noem, Vance and Trump as they  villianized the victim and glorified the murderer.  Another Citizen, Alex Pretti was pepper sprayed and wrestled to the ground by 5 or 6 Officers then shot execution style, after his gun had been removed from his waistband by them. Alex was a VA hospital ICU nurse and a permitted firearm carrier, his crime was trying to help a woman who the Officers had pushed down in sub zero snow. Again Alex like Renee was villianized by Noem, Miller and Trump. What did our spectacular AG do but start investigating the dead victims and their loved ones!  We have as President a person who has no human feelings, no respect nor love for anyone except Donald J Trump and Vladimir Putin, eveyone else is disposable after use.
