Dear World,

As much as sane Americans would love for you to visit us, please don’t. Seriously, you’d be nuts to.

Our president is a fascist, demented loon. About a third or so of Americans like him that way, and our immigration officers are better known as “the Gestapo.”

Sorry ‘bout that.

U.S. Plans to Scrutinize Foreign Tourists’ Social Media History

Trump wasn’t satisfied with merely crippling the tourist industry. No, he has to kill it completely.

It doesn’t get much more nuts than this. Next will be denying the “wrong” American citizens re-entry.

One Toke Over The Line - Lawrence Welk - WTF! (1971)
YouTube video by clotho98 One Toke Over The Line - Lawrence Welk - WTF! (1971)

Despite years of being force-fed Lawrence Welk as a child and adolescent, and despite some of his unfortunate musical choices, I must admit that Larry had a hell of a tight orchestra.

And I also will admit to fondness for his 1961 “Calcutta” LP. But that video isn’t the whitest thing ever. THIS is.

A couple of my folks’ ornaments from the neighborhood store in Baton Rouge, circa 1945, and one that obviously is very, very late 1960s.

Second #Christmas tree was up and done by Sunday. As God is my witness, we have enough decorations for three trees.

Tree No. 2 has 80 years’ worth of ornaments — ours from 43 Christmases as a married couple, some from my childhood and a few from my parents’ first tree in 1945.

And we’ll fertilize what crops we have the North Korean way — by dumping our shit in the fields. I’m sure RFK Jr., would be all over that.

I swear, these motherfuckers are the dumbest motherfuckers who ever motherfucked in the history of motherfucking. It beggars belief.

What does not beggars belief is that no country can survive this level of stupidity and malice. We’ll either collapse or descend to some sort of redneck North Korea.

Trump threatens ‘severe tariffs’ on Canadian fertilizer in attempt to aid U.S. farmers U.S. President Donald Trump says Canadian fertilizer being exported south of the border could be hit with significant levies in the future as his administration lays out plans to help American farmers...

“U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said at the roundtable that becoming less dependent on foreign sources of fertilizer is a top priority for her department….”

We. Cannot. Manufacture. Potash.

But I hear extreme hunger really focuses the mind if you want to start a revolution.

immigrants score the lowest on tests, but they also take all our jobs, while at the same time taking all the welfare and buying all the homes

Many years ago, our schnoodle was choking, and the only thing I could think to do was a “doggie Heimlich.” Damned if it didn’t work.

Rachel Maddow said Monday that Timothy Snyder’s biggest fear wasn’t that Trump would become dictator for life but that, instead, that the United States would break apart. That seems to me like a not-unlikely prospect.

This is just more acetone poured on the adhesive holding America together.

Nebraska lawmaker was twice denied entry to McCook ICE jail, calls it law violation • Nebraska Examiner Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh seeks action from legislative leaders after she was twice denied entry to McCook ICE jail, calling it legal violation.

Jim Pillen is a lawless fascist striving, as did his last two #GOP predecessors, to turn #Nebraska into a #shithole.

The progression of regression has been slow, thanks to the escalation of incompetence of these regimes, but we’re getting there due to Nebraskans’ growing taste for shit. SMDH.

“You’re the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. A terrible reporter.”

Trump again attacks a Black female reporter, ABC’s Rachel Scott, for asking about releasing the full boat strike video - which he said he would do 5 days ago

And the other journalists stay silent🐔

In tomorrow’s headlines, the National Symphony Orchestra has announced it will premiere a new work, “Fantasia on God Bless the USA at the YMCA” (KKK. 4547) early in 2026 at Kennedy Center.

The original recording subsequently will be released on Trump Records.
