Liberal, educated, Jewish. Just this cantankerous, old guy who reads. After more than 20 years, I am still in the madness of love with the woman who married me and love the adult spawn that still rattles about our house at strange hours. Cat person.

When people ask โ€œwhy do you make everything about race,โ€

I always answer: โ€œBecause it is.โ€

There is NOTHING in America, that isnโ€™t about race. Art, business, music, sports, science, marketing, architecture, city planning, education, small businesses, entertainment,

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running donโ€™t.

And Speaker Mike Johnson wonโ€™t let the House come back to work. So basically theyโ€™re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.

Did I get that right?

TX Gov. Abbott sending TX troops to โ€œinvadeโ€ or operate in other states is a CLEAR contitโ€™l violation.

Infringes 10thAM (state sovereignty), 14thAM (equal protection), & directly defies the Insurrection Act & Posse Comitatus principles.

This is not federalism.

It is treason against the Union.

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Jeffrey Epstein cover up Tuesday's Senate hearing gave us even more proof

Pam Bondiโ€™s evasiveness and defensiveness during Senate hearing Tuesday when asked about Jeffrey Epstein are what prosecutors call โ€œconsciousness of guilt.โ€ In this case, she is guilty of covering up for those involved in Epstein sex ring.

I get that the sarcasm of parroting the MangoMoron's daily posted rant is far beyond the solidly double-digit IQ of idiocrats, but it is jarring to see it posted in plain sight on a public forum.

Perhaps Truth Social would be far more your speed.

Match actions to rhetoric.

Progressive Democratic Party members want to provide good governance and healthcare.

Fox News is suggesting lethal injections and noted eugenics aficionado, RFK Jr, is floating reduction camps for autism.

This is happening right out in the open.

attention.

"Alligator Alcatraz" was modeled on Andersonville.

ICE is modeled on post Reformation KKK "law enforcement.

The Administration is building "detention facilities" all across the nation.

The rhetoric out of Whitehouse mimeograghs NAZI 1930 rhetoric.

The world has seen this before.

The tantruming octogenarian toddler infesting the Oval Office built concentration camps for CHILDREN during his first infestation and a hundreds of children are still missing.

This time, he is using masked thugs to kidnap folk and human-traffic them to foreign rent-a-death camps.

Billionaire grifters are about to dismantle your government. So instead of your tax dollars going to your Medicare or your Medicaid or your affordable care act or to veterans benefits or your social security - it will go to THEM in the form of tax cuts for the wealthy.

For fuck's sake, DonnieDumbFuck means building death camps and killing homeless is the answer.

Democratic Party members mean providing governmental services and medical care.

Both sides are not the same.

Why Corporate Media is Bending the Knee

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives.

He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.
