Trump wants absolute power and control over everyone and everything. His agents kill with impunity, because he is president and can pardon their every crime. The Republican Party is to blame. They have no honor. They will not protect the citizenry.

From the WSJ a little while ago..... "In a late wrinkle, House lawmakers took issue with a provision that allows senators to seek damages of $500,000 if federal investigators collect their phone records without their knowledge as part of an investigation.....

..... The provision is seen as designed to help eight senators whose records were obtained as part of former special counsel Jack Smith’s probe into Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election."

Lets see. The Ballroom is going to cost $300,000,000 and it's going to be 90,000 square feet in size. $300 million divided by 90,000 = $3,333.33 per square foot. Rip-Off, for sure.

We are prepared for the National Guard here in Oregon. In fact it is the Oregon National Guard being deployed. We intend to meet them with good coffee, hand pies and pastries. They're our folks. Fuck You, Donnie Dumbo.

Trump says that he's sending troops to Portland to use full force to quell the riots. Of course there are no riots. There aren't more than a handful of people around the ICC garage building from time to time. It's gonna be "full farce" and it's gonna be indistinguishable from a Cabinet meeting.

So, now the info comes out from the Trump-attack: The bunker busters bunkers weren't busted. The Iranians moved their bomb materials before the raid. The pilot's did their job with great precision. The President lied to the people. The Republican Party failed the Constitution. The madness must end.

Isn't it about time for a national strike on May 1, 2025? Everyone, except the most critical workers, stay home. No travel, no restaurants, no shopping, no protests. Just shut down the whole damn nation for that day.

Nothing quite like sitting at home and watching the markets tank. The Trump effect will go down in history as the most effective way to impoverish his supporters, the morons who took such pride in their red caps and his bullshit.

Nothing quite like waking up to the first snowfall of the winter, watching small flakes trying to accumulate. Then, turning to the news to find that Trump is selling out the Ukrainians to Russia by refusing them to be included in "peace" talks. President Scum Ass Kisser.

Trump is on the road to announce what he truly wants, dictator for life. Seizing Gaza. Taking personal control of all government data systems. Threatening countries around the world. And Schumer is wallowing in senility and NOT MOUNTING ACTION TO SAVE THE COUNTRY.

In a move to calm international tensions and clarify universal understanding, instead of "The Gulf of America" Trump will be honored by changing the name to "The Gulf of Stupidity."

I'd like to congratulate Jeff Bezos on being able to turn the Washington Post into a non-profitable, dying shell of what it used to be. It takes a singular determination to kiss Trumps ass for this to happen. I'd suggest you sell if for $1 to the Society of Professional Journalists.

If the US withdraws from the WHO, can we still join the E Street Band?
