DDT = Dumb Donald Trump        MASA= Make America Sane Again

1 May 2022 (13459) MASA plus 464 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The war continues with some relief as civilians in Mariupol are being allowed to leave for Ukrainian-held territory. There is a massive infusion of heavy weapons for use by the Ukrainian military that could change the outcome of the war. Russia's losses of equipment and soldiers are staggering with little opportunity for replacements, and it is only going to get worse. The question about what happens if Russia starts losing the war even in the Donbas region is scary. Will Putin respond with nuclear or chemical attacks and will that cross a red line bringing in outside intervention. There is already a bill in Congress authorizing the president to use force if necessary. Lavrov made a stupid claim that Hitler was part Jewish and that is why the Russian war was to clear out Nazis. The Nazis, culturally speaking, are the Russians and their behavior. Russian Ambassador Lavrov admitted that their vaunted offensive in Donbas is stalling, the war is lost, and Russia has nothing to counter Western weapons pouring into Ukraine. Since Putin can’t accept defeat, the Kremlin is indicating that nuclear weapons are on the table as its last resort in this war. Russia has blocked nearly four and a half million tons of grain in Ukraine's ports, with far-reaching impacts around the world. The DDT organization is being accused of hiding a witness who knows if DDT lied. A District judge ordered RNC to turn over fundraising email records to Jan. 6 investigators in the House. The investigations in NY and Georgia are continuing. One hopes that indictments are handed down soon leading to DDT being locked up for crimes committed.

30 April (13459) MASA plus 463 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Mariupol in Ukraine is still a mess with soldiers and civilians trapped in the steel plant. Russians have been having a nasty habit of killing people they capture. This makes surrender useless, so it drags on. What a surprise, Margorie Taylor Greene has been caught in lies in front of the congressional investigating committee. Some of them were based n her remarkable non-memory of anything that happened to her. It is astounding how any single person could not remember so many things and in such detail. Warren Buffett just said that Wall Street is almost totally like a Casino with inverting more resembling betting. Watch out.  Google Chrome has been hacked and is vulnerable for the next few days. Update it as soon as possible. Another record, SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 booster for the second time in three weeks. Way to go! COVID is on the rise in Los Angeles County (126 new cases per 100,000 ), so watch out America, it could be in your town or city shortly. Also, watch out America, DDT could be in your town, city, or bedroom very soon. Prevent the stealing of democracy and lock DDT up for crimes committed.

29 April (13459) MASA plus 462 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DeSantis has been diagnosed with hoof and mouth disease and will have to be culled from the herd of idiotic and mean-spirited Republicans who are thinking of running for President. Hopefully, the survivor will be as in the old saying, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.  That is, if we have to wind up with a Republican, let's hope that he or she has at least one eye. Putin gave a middle finger to the UN as he bombs Kyiv as the diplomats are there. A new government effort to combat disinformation has sparked a Republican backlash. A little of that is understandable. You have to be careful not to squash speech you disagree with as opposed to harmful misinformation that affects public health or safety. It is typical of the Republicans including the chief liar DDT. Lock up DDT and save America.

28 April (13429) MASA plus 461 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The mouse has not heard back from DeSantis who is busy extracting his foot from his mouth. These extractions take time and the pain is considerable. Russia is still threatening western countries for interfering in his illegal immoral war. Will Putin use nukes? Hold your breath and see. Russia bombed Kyiv with cruise missiles while US diplomats were in town. He missed. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced a bill to abolish Section 230 that protects online platforms from liability and wants to replace it with" replace it with a provision to require “reasonable, non-discriminatory access to online communications". Sounds good, but it really is a provision that would force the websites to carry misinformation so desperately wanted by Republicans. Greene's account was taken down over such misinformation as was DDT's. More abortion restrictions passed by Oklahoma with a 6-week limit before most women have any idea they are pregnant and patterned it after the Texas vigilante law. Russia is rattling the use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine again, a threat that the west should take seriously. Meanwhile, Russian rockets are pounding Kyiv again. DDT is back on his failing social network spreading lies again. Fortunately, the number of people listening to him is very limited. We need to get DDT into a comfortable jail cell as soon as possible to prevent further damage to democracy.

27 April (13429) MASA plus 460 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The mouse strikes back and DeSantis is terrified. The mouse has told DeSantis that changing the status of Reedy Creek will cost Florida 1 billion dollars to pay off bond debt. In the western US, 6 million Californians have been ordered to cut water use arising from the prolonged drought. One glass of water per person per day (joking). It really is no lawn watering or car washes during the drought. Biden has requested 33 billion to help Ukraine in its war effort against Russia. A war that Russia is gradually losing. In response, Putin has threatened a "lightning-fast" response for nations that intervene. Germany has now agreed to proved heavy weapons for Ukraine as part of an about-face of national policy in response to Russian aggression in Europe. Let's hope that response is not nuclear. The cutoff of natural gas to Poland and Bulgaria has caused concern for further cutoffs in the rest of Europe. This is all the more reason to remove Europe's dependence on Russia as a rogue nation. Russia has experienced a series of explosions at sites closely related to its military effort. Among them are sites that produce rocket fuel for its missiles and ammunition for canons. Russia plans to threaten Finland because of its NATO application. The same will be true for Sweden.  Putin is gradually painting Russia into a corner and, as we all know, a cornered rat is dangerous. Judge Arthur Engoron has determined that one of the largest real estate firms in the world broke its own rules to help the DDT Organization with its real estate deals. There is nothing new here, just more of the corruption associated with anything done by DDT. It is time to lock DDT up along with members of his family found guilty of crimes.

26 April (13322) MASA plus 459 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Amazing. Russia and the US did a prisoner swap for a bogusly imprisoned US Marine, Trevor Reed, for a convicted drug dealer that somehow was important to Moscow. Let's hope the international drug dealer does not get back in business. I'm glad the Marne is freed. Here is come Europe. Russia is committing energy blackmail by cutting off natural gas for Poland and Bulgaria, two NATO countries. This is a definite escalation in response to the economic sanction imposed on Russia. It is time for Europe to totally cut off Russian energy purchases as soon as possible. The nuclear saber-rattling continues from Russia's Lavrov who is warning about WW3. DDT's dim lightbulb policy has been reversed by Biden by phasing out old incandescent bulbs. It's about time. LED bulbs are now cheap and better in every respect. Kevin McCarthy was caught in a lie over the 6 January insurrection in audio clips capturing McCarthy saying he would call for Trump’s resignation and also he suggested that far-right Republican lawmakers could incite violence against colleagues, all of which he denied by lying. New details have emerged from the House committee about the extent House Republicans, particularly members of the Freedom Caucus, were involved in plans to unwind the 2020 election. This was all led by DDT who should now go on trial, be convicted, and be locked up.

25 April (13322) MASA plus 458 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Another day another atrocity was committed by the Nazi Russians. It gets tiresome to keep talking about the criminal war that Putin is waging with no one but the Ukrainians doing anything to thwart the Russians. Of course, I do not want to see casualties for Americans or Europeans, but where will the Russians stop? We had this experience with the German Nazis before WW2 of acquisition of territory just because some German-speaking people lived there. Or, at least that was the excuse for lebensraum. US officials are visiting Kyiv to talk with Zelanskyy over more help with more lethal weapons. It helps but is only part of the answer. House member Marjorie Greene asked DDT aide about imposing martial law to thwart the election results (she spelled it Marshall so we know the email belonged to her). DDT's appointed judges are sabotaging Biden's immigration [olicies by forcing the retention of DDT policies. The case is now before the Supreme Court (Biden vs Texas). Russia’s top diplomat warned Ukraine against provoking World War III and said the threat of a nuclear conflict “should not be underestimated” as his country unleashed attacks against rail and fuel installations far from the front lines of Moscow’s new eastern offensive. The war is going badly for the Ukrainians right now with losses in the Russian-coveted Donbas region that is the heart of Ukraine's industrial heartland. Yay, a judge has found DDT in contempt of court in the legal fight in NY about documents related to DDT's real estate dealings. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) may be found to have engaged in insurrection. If so, they would be barred from seeking reelection under the 14th amendment of the constitution. That would be good for the US. America, we still have DDT lurking out there disrupting the political system, so lock him up and save the US.

24 April (13322) MASA plus 457 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The big news is that French President Emmanuel Macron comfortably won reelection to a second term Sunday, according to polling agencies' projections. This keeps NATO intact and the Russian boot-licker Le Pen on the sidelines. I was just looking at the inflation numbers. It's getting worse and people are genuinely hurting. It's ironic that even when low and middle-class people are hurting economically, Congress is passing another tax bill that will allow rich people to avoid taxes. The cause of inflation as I understand it is as follows in a simplified discussion. The start of the inflation problem was COVID and the disruption of the normal supply chain. About 40 years ago, economists and industry discovered that just in time delivery of supplies was much more efficient than stockpiling goods in warehouses. Japan pioneered this system and then the rest of the world adopted it since it was so successful. Then it became obvious that it was more efficient to have different countries produce what they could produce best. That caused many heavy industry companies, e.g., steel making, to be done elsewhere, say in China or Vietnam. We have never imported much at all from Russia, but the world did import food from Ukraine, which now is not producing that food. With the Ukraine war, Europe, which got a lot of its oil and gas from Russia stopped buying Russian oil and gas making the supply go tight and causing the price to rise. Saudi Arabia has refused to increase production, so the price remains high. The US is increasing production, but this takes time. The combination of supply chain disruption by COVID and not the Ukraine war is driving prices higher. The supply chain issue has not yet been resolved. The other thing that happened was that there has been a job recovery in the US making labor tight. In particular, people who work in low-paying jobs have been able to demand and get higher wages. This has driven inflation further. All these together are responsible for the rise in prices. One other minor factor has entered into this. As part of the COVID recovery plan, a lot of money was pumped into the US economy that was not spent while COVID restrictions were in place. That money is now showing up as increased demand for goods and services, further causing price increases. That is the basic picture in a nutshell. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s comments asking DDT to resign after the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol are echoing inside Washington, with Democrats calling him a liar and Republicans saying he’s still well-positioned to become Speaker after the midterms. The Republican party is no longer a party interested in governing with any shred of integrity. They would rather have an incompetent liar as Speaker than being an honest party with the interests of the US at heart. Is climate change real? Oh yes. One person is dead and thousands are forced to flee as wildfires sweep across the US. It will only get worse. Elect Republicans and have your worst nightmares hastened. That plus outright corruption. The head of a local Republican Party in North Carolina is accused of threatening and harassing an elections official in a desperate attempt to get his hands on voting machines. William Keith Senter, chair of the Surry County Republican Party, was “aggressive, threatening, and hostile” with elections director Michella Huff and vowed to get her fired if she refused to grant him illegal access to the county’s vote tabulators.  That's enough for today. Wait. I almost forgot. As always lock up DDT for crimes committed and those of his family that are also criminals.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (The Loser)

23 April (13322) MASA plus 456 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I took another day off being too busy with other things. The big news of the day was the House Republican leader getting caught in bald-faced lies by a recording of his comments about DDT by denying that he had asked DDT to resign for the good of the nation. However, the gutless wonder backed off and now walks in a bent-over posture to better lick the boots of DDT. As always, DDT needs to be locked up for crimes committed.

22 April (13322) MASA plus 455 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It looks like Russia is planning to invade Moldova and to occupy southern Ukraine and try to starve Odesa, a large Ukrainian city. How long will it take the world to realize they are dealing with a second Nazi regime bent on taking land by force and exterminating anyone that disagrees. We have been there before and know that unless we stop Putin his appetite will never be satisfied. There is a risk in stopping Putin, but an even bigger risk in not stopping him. At least the US has stepped up shipments of weapons. More is needed to defeat the Russians. On the home front, DeSantis is fighting Mickey Mouse over the Mouse's insistence that people who are gay are full-fledged people and not something to hide away. Two Georgia election workers who were the target of vote-rigging conspiracy theories have reached a settlement agreement with the far-right One America News Network in their defamation lawsuit against the outlet. This leaves only Giuliani as a defendant. I hope they ream him "good". Rep. Marjorie Greene (R-GA) refused to answer whether interfering with an election makes someone an enemy of the Constitution. Of course, she would refuse. She is an enemy of the constitution just like DDT. As for DDT, the only place he belongs is locked up sharing a comfortable cell in a maximum-security prison.

21 April (13322) MASA plus 454 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Time marches on in the Biden presidency and he gets less and less credit for the successes he has achieved. He gets attacked from the moderates in the Democratic party to the leftists. He is being blamed for inflation caused by COVID and now the Ukraine war, he is blamed for rising gasoline prices caused by COVID's let up and the Ukraine war, and he is blamed for environmental policies when under pressure from the right to increase gasoline availability. Personally, I think that Biden is doing a really good job in almost all areas, especially given the fractious Congress. Florida's DeSantis strikes (out) again. Florida taxpayers could face a $1 billion Disney debt bomb if its special district status is revoked. Go for it Disney. Stick it to DeSantis. Now they are getting serious in Central America. Ex-president of Honduras extradited to the US on drugs charges. US Drug Enforcement Administration agents have extradited the Honduran former president Juan Orlando Hernández to New York, where he will face federal drug trafficking and weapons charges. It's a tough world out there with new immigration threats and an ongoing war. The war has become so nasty that the Ukrainians need some direct support. If Russia is allowed to succeed in this war to grasp territory and eradicate a people, then which country is next? It may be better to stop Russia now before the start of a World War and before the Putin-loving DDT (the loser) has a chance to regain power. America, convict DDT for crimes committed and lock DDT up.

20 April (13322) MASA plus 453 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin's nazis continue the inhumane assault on Ukraine with crazed Putin leading the way. If there ever was a war criminal in modern times, it is Putin. I hope the courts see it that way too. It is like a Mafia chieftain ordering a hit and then trying to get away with the murder. Only in this case is the murder of thousands. R$emionds me of Hitler and his henchmen. Former President DDT (the loser) blasted Piers Morgan as “very dishonest” while walking out of an interview with the TV presenter and Post columnist after being pressed on his claims that he lost the 2020 presidential election due to voter fraud. It is good that DDT continues to act as a lying fool. COVID cases are continuing to rise. The CDC ruling by the Florida judge is flying in the face of reality. US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen joined the Ukraine walk out of a G20 meeting as a Russian official starts to speak. Good for JY. She did the right thing. Imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny stepped into France’s presidential campaign Wednesday, urging voters to back incumbent Emmanuel Macron and alleging that far-right challenger Marine Le Pen is too closely linked to Russia. Israel struck back at Hamas in Gaza in response to two missiles launched at Israel. The bottom line is the world is a mess and people are selecting leaders that make it worse. The US had DDT and the possibility of DDT rerun. Frightening. C'mon US. Indict DDT, try him, and lock him up.

19 April (13322) MASA plus 452 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  Took another day off from writing about the terrible things going on in the world. We need to go after the DDT family top to bottom and lock them up if they committed crimes.

18 April (13322) MASA plus 451 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin's nazis are pounding Ukrainian cities to rubble with no regard for human life. And are committing random and mass executions - bullets to the back of the head and sometimes torture first. Nice guys. Apparently, the Russian culture is one of suppressed violence and no discipline. OMG. A DDT-appointed Florida federal judge has blocked mask mandates on airplanes and TSA is no longer enforcing masking because of this ruling. So much for public safety during travel. Hopefully, this will be appealed, but I am afraid it will not be appealed. We'll just have to wait until people start to die in large numbers. Paris prosecutors are studying a report by the European Union’s fraud agency accusing French far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen and other members of her nationalist party of misusing public funds while serving in the European Parliament. Looks like a woman but smells like DDT, "eau de fraud". The two of them should get together and make a really smelly package. It's time to put DDT in jail for crimes committed before he can cause more harm.

17 April (13290) MASA plus 450 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The illegal war continues with the Russian Nazis continuing to attack Mariupol and bomb other cities with their usual disdain for civilians. Reminds me of Nazi Germany and World War-2 in Europe. More shootings today. If there are going to be more shootings it should include those against gun control. Perhaps a little random personal tragedy in their lives might change their minds. Of course, I do not wish anyone gets shot. Predictions for the US economy are not good as slowing growth and high inflation will hit the global economy this year as Russia’s war against Ukraine cau7ses a further slowdown. Goldman Sachs estimated a 35% chance of a recession in the next 2 years. The multibillion SLS moon rocket has been rolled back for repairs (again) after failing refueling tests. It is sad that NASA is supporting a failing large corporation producing a costly rocket. The COVID positivity rate is rising, so be careful. Over 50 Republicans voted against NATO and its stance protecting against Putin. I guess that part of the GOP has become a Russia first party. It is time to put the chief Putin boot licker, DDT. behind bard for crimes committed.

 

16 April (13290) MASA plus 449 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. More shootings in a mall in Wisconsin and I am sure elsewhere. Russia has resumed its aerial bombing of Kyiv and other cities. This has become a revenge war for Putin in an attempt to wrest some sort of victory from the extermination horror he has unleashed. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has made an about-face on his policy of tighter inspections of trucks entering Texas from Mexico, a week after he implemented the policy which led to Mexican truckers blockading border bridges in protest and holding up food supplies to the US as a result. He reversed course on Friday night after a week of intensifying backlash and fears of deepening economic losses. Florida has rejected 54 math textbooks because they teach that 1+1 = 2 no matter how much you want the result to be 3. They were rejected by the Florida Department of Education after officials said their publishers were attempting to indoctrinate students with critical race theory, common core, and social-emotional learning. It takes a fairly large number of idiots to run Florida. It is time to kick the idiots out. The upcoming election in France could be decisive for both France and NATO if France votes for Le Pen over Macron. The French would be fools to take in the BS Le Pen is feeding them about being more moderate. She favors withdrawal from NATO and much of the EU. This would be a lot like the US electing DDT. A stupendous error that needs to be rectified by throwing DDT in jail.

15 April (13290) MASA plus 448 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I took another day off on Friday. Busy with other things as the world slowly spins out of control. The stock market was down as was Biden's popularity ratings even though he is doing everything almost right. Two things are getting him, the first is inflation, which he can do nothing about, and the second is immigration, which he can do something about. The US needs a thoughtful immigration policy that protects the truly endangered but prevents a flood of people crossing the border. Texas Governor Abbott is continuing his insanity with truck stoppages. And DeSantis is fighting with Mickey Mouse.  Sigh. Lock DDT up and be done with it

14 April (13290) MASA plus 447 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. A prime Russian warship Moskva has been destroyed by the Ukrainians as Russia prepares for more offensive action in the Donbas region. Some of the internal propaganda coming out of Russia is just awful depicting Ukrainians as a race that needs to be exterminated. Reminds me of the Nazi dehumanization of Jews and opponents of the Nazi regime. Now we have Russian Nazis bent on the extermination of sub-humans. It's ugly and uncivilized. Putin has specifically said that he wants to destroy Ukraine and that "REHABILITATION" may take decades. The Republican National Committee voted unanimously on Thursday to withdraw from the Commission on Presidential Debates, saying the group that has run the debates for decades was biased and refused to enact reforms. By reforms, they mean a real bias towards Republicans instead of the fake bias they are complaining about. They want to use bald-faced lies and get away with it. Russia is warning Finland and Sweden against joining NATO and has raised the threat of nuclear weapons. Not really much of a threat qas Russia already station nuclear weapons 10 km back from the border. COVID omicron is back with new variants and a rising caseload. It's crazy with people walking around and eating in restaurants as f there was no risk. Speaking of risk, we have to reduce the risk to democracy by getting rid of Republicans from office and putting DDT in jaail for crimes committed.

13 April (13290) MASA plus 446 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today was a quiet one relatively speaking. Yes, the bombing went on and the Brooklyn shooter was captured. Biden has authorized an additional $800 million in weapons, some of the weapons more advanced. The busloads of illegal migrants from Texas began to arrive in Washington, DC, and almost immediately left for other parts of the country, The governor, Abbott, is behaving like a jerk. Abbott (the jerk) going to full truck inspection at the border has created 14-hour delays and now an on-purpose blockage on the Mexican side. This in turn is going to affect the food supply, auto parts, and other commodities that are already getting expensive and will get more so. Abbott is getting fierce blowback. Perhaps he will lose in the next election. DDT's White House aide, Mark Meadows, has been removed from North Carolina's voting rolls and indicted for voter fraud. I guess DDT was right, in that there is voter fraud. Now that the fraud was caught, DDT lost by one more vote. Let's prevent the idiot from running for President again by locking him up.

12 April (13290) MASA plus 445 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Florida's DeSantis is proving to be the racist he appeared to be. He has been given the power to gerrymander the voting districts and has vowed to dismantle minority-controlled voting districts. This basically means that minorities will have no representation among the state legislators. The Brooklyn subway shooting has NY in a tizzy for good reason. No one was killed, which is a small miracle. Let's hope there is no political motive for this atrocity. With the rising violent crime rate in NYC. New Yorkers are getting justifiably nervous. Georgia's governor Kemp has signed a bill allowing concealed carry of weapons without a special license. The Ukraine war is getting worse at least in the eastern portion of Ukraine (Donbas region). Putin has given up on negotiations and seems determined to destroy cities and kill civilians in an attempt to demoralize the population. Putin has enlisted the general that destroyed Syria. If this keeps up, there will be no option but for the US and NATO to intervene. The Pentagon is preparing to send more sophisticated lethal weapons to repel Putin's army. DDT's lawyers are meeting with the 6 January committee as one of the rioters is blaming DDT for inciting the insurrection attempt. COVID is increasing again but not so much as to cause panic. In some places, the mask mandate is coming back, especially for airline travel. This is a good thing for public safety. Following the intrusion of the religious right into people's personal lives, Oklahoma's governor has signed a bill banning almost all abortions making it a felony. Even with all this going on, America needs to get rid of our own dictator in training and lover of Putin, DDT, by locking him up in jail for crimes committed.

DDT= Dumb Donald Trump (THe loser)

11 April (13262) MASA plus 444 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Britain is investigating the possible use of poison gas in Ukraine. If proven true, it will be another example of utter brutality on the part of Putin. Finally, the president has the guts to go after some weapons, ghost guns, that are plaguing America's streets. The Austrian chancellor met with Putin and came away very pessimistic about the possibilities of ending the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. On the domestic front, inflation is roaring along. Nothing like the Jimmy Carter days, but still devasting to those on fixed incomes or at the lower end of wage earners. Along with inflation, there has been a serious uptick in COVID cases, but no corresponding uptick in deaths. A recent expose by Hill, former foreign policy advisor to Bush, Obama, and then DDT, shows how inept and uninformed DDT was as President, and how self-interested. As she says, Bush and Obama may have been wrong but they had the interest of the country at heart, unlike DDT where it was only personal self-interest and admiration for dictators. And that self-interest and admiration for undemocratic ways continue to this day. It is time to put DDT in jail for crimes committed before he even attempts to run for President again.

10 April (13262) MASA plus 443 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Ukraine is strongly preparing to fight the Russians in the east. I hope they really give the Russians hell for being there. It is time that Russia loses the war. Russia is getting desperate and wants to call in retired soldiers to prop up their losing side. It is really ugly. US intelligence is suggesting that the plan to massacre civilians is coming from the top of the government, just as in Syria. It is a criminal government. There is a rumor floating around that the 6 January committee is split on the idea of referring DDT to the justice department for criminal prosecution. However, Republican Liz Cheney disputes that rumor. Cheney cited a decision “issued by federal Judge David Carter a few weeks ago, where he concluded that it was more likely than not the president of the United States was engaged in criminal activity. On the COVID front, Fauci says it’s now up to Americans to assess their own COVID-19 risk by carefully choosing their activities. Imran Khan has been ousted as Pakistan's leader, paving way for a power shift. The question is a shift to where?  The question about the Justice Department and DDT is will he and his family be required to testify about the attempted coup. They should be and then DDT and family members tried for treason or other serious crimes and locked up for a long time.

9 April (13262) MASA plus 442 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The DDT junior thing appears to be real. There is a massive electronic email trail showing that DDT jr was trying to foment a coup. It will be interesting to watch this one develop and see if the AG Garland takes action. If Garland does go after DDT jr then it might lead to DDT himself. The missing 7 hours of phone records might be revealing. The FBI can probably fill most of the missing phone calls in. China is getting tough on Hong Kong making it clear that their word is not to be trusted. Hong Kong is basically living under a severe dictatorship in violation of signed agreements with the British. Russia is regrouping for more war but is suffering terrible losses. Putin passed a law making it a crime to discuss the deaths of soldiers even by parents and wives. The estimated 15,000 dead soldiers should have an impact. Russia may wind up losing this war. There is a plan being proposed to take money stashed overseas by Russian oligarchs to pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine.  In spite of all the atrocities, DDT is still expressing admiration for Putin. It is time to lock him up.

8 April (13212) MASA plus 441 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I took another vacation day. The headlines are the same. 50 dead at a train station in Ukraine. More weapons were shipped to Ukraine including advanced antiaircraft missile defenses. Biden gets no break even when he fulfills his promises such as the Supreme Court nomination or handling the COVID pandemic as well as anyone could expect. And, DDT is still denying everything, but there is one new thing. DDT junior is being investigated for treason for trying to formulate a coup. Let's lock up both DDTs.

7 April (13212) MASA plus 440 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT gave a defiant rambling press interview back on his theme of a stolen election and how Pelosi was responsible for the riots inside of the capitol building. He also rambled on about how he wanted to march with the rioters at the Senate but was prevented from doing so by the Secret Service agents. Of course, the reality was totally different. DDT spent the day watching TV to see how the riots turned out and if he had pulled off a coup. The atrocities committed by Russia in Ukraine are becoming clearer by the day. The Germans intercepted radio transmissions from Russian soldiers talking about the massacre and the executions of captured soldiers and civilians after torture. These tactics are the same as those used by the Russians in Syria, except there the tactics had the approval of the vicious Asad government. Jackson has been confirmed by the Senate for the Supreme Court, which should be good for the country. Now we have to get rid of Thomas and get a second Biden appointee. The immigration problem is rearing its ugly head as the restrictions on COVID are loosening. In particular, there is a big surge of Cubans fleeing the repressive communist regime. And, that is only one part of the problem with a surge of Central and South American illegals. This is a tough one for the Biden administration to handle absent any congressional action addressing immigration. Biden's gaffe about getting rid of Putin when giving a speech in Europe is looking like less of a gaffe and more like a common thought for most countries. New York's Attorney General has said that the investigation into possible DDT illegal activity is robust and continuing. This is a hopeful sign that we may get what I wish for. That is, DDT is locked up for crimes committed.

6 April (13212) MASA plus 439 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT has now admitted that he lost the election. Of course, that could change tomorrow with DDT saying that he was misquoted. Still, even if the admission lasts at least one day, it is a welcome shift. Evidence is mounting for the veracity of Russian war crimes, while inside Russia they are claiming that it is all fake and done by the Ukrainians, All those hand-bound Ukrainians shot in the back of their heads later got up and went home. I'm sure this line of lies has great credibility if repeated often enough. Texas governor is promising to bus all immigrants entering Texas from Mexico to Washington DC. Perhaps Congress will wake up and do something substantial related to immigration. Ted Cruz has several screws loose in his head. On Fox News, Cruz blamed Biden for starting the war in Ukraine. In the Republican Party, it is crazy as usual. New York, Washington DC, and Georgia, I want action, not words, throw DDT in jail

5 April (13212) MASA plus 438 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Vacation did not help. The world is largely unchanged. It is looking like the Supreme Court nomination of Jackson is heading toward confirmation with at least 3 Republican members of the Senate backing her, That's not much but is heartening anyway. Obama met with Biden at the White House and stole the show. This is exactly what might be expected given their respective personalities. Russia paid its debt in rubles on dollar-denominated bonds. Russia is technically in default which will negatively affect its ability to further borrow funds internationally. The genocide in Bucha, Ukraine is pushing some ostensibly neutral countries to reconsider their position. For example, India and Turkey. France is in trouble with the right-wing candidate, Le Pen, closing the gap in election polls. That is the last thing the world needs is an extreme right-wing leader in France. At the end of the day, DDT needs to be in jail for crimes committed, lock him up.

4 April (13212) MASA plus 437 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I'm on vacation for a day. I still want DDT locked up, but I refuse to think about him or the butcher of Ukraine, Putin. Come to think of lock-up DDT and lock-up Putin, perhaps together sharing a padded cell.

3 April (13212) MASA plus 436 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  DDT is busy rewriting the history of his one-term presidency. Amazingly,  he is coming off as spectacularly successful and loved by almost all.  DDT is contagious. Pakistan's prime minister, Imran Kahn, is claiming that parliament's vote of no-confidence is a US plot. He has dissolved parliament and called for a new election. Lots of shootings and deaths this weekend as the public arms itself to the teeth and more guns are stolen. It's crazy, it's like the wild west.No one has the guts to do anything about it. Ukrainian forces have retaken Kyiv as Russian forces withdraw but the Russians are still bombing. Today it is an oil refinery. Tomorrow a school. It is time to put this to bed and DDT in jail.

 It's getting late. time toi put this to bed and DDT in jail2 April  (13212) MASA plus 435 days out of 1431 days plu s a 2nd term. As you can see, a lot happened yesterday that left the world in a different place. Unfortunately, when we all awoke this morning, all the good stuff evaporated and we were back to the conditions of 31 March. Some things have changed. Putin is withdrawing from the region around Kyiv after massive losses. It is not over at all with the criminal bombing of civilians going on constantly. Hopefully, Putin and Russia will play for the crimes committed. Russians are leaving land mines as they withdraw as would any nice country do. The big hope right now is that Russia will not resort to nuclear weapons in an attempt to regain control over its neighbors. Unfortunately, DDT is still roaming free and causing election troubles. America, it is time to try and convict DDT for crimes committed.

1 April 2022 (13056) MASA plus 434 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's April Fools Day.  Putin pulls out of Ukraine and resigns in disgrace. Global warming will actually produce positive results for humankind such as vacations in Antarctica starting in 2030. Boris Johnson resigns and Britain is led by a responsible intelligent person. Poverty in America has been erased and inflation is back to less than 2%. COVID suddenly disappears and life has returned to normal. Venezuela holds clean elections and Maduro peacefully transfers power. Brazil has become a responsible democracy again and has stopped pillaging the rainforest. Dark matter has been determined not to exist at least in the form of matter as we know it. The speculation that dark matter is actually the mass associated with information has proven to be true also proving that we live in an artificial mathematical holographic construction. Oh yes, DDT has been sentenced to serve 20 years in prison for his many crimes committed.

31 March (13056) MASA plus 433 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. After digging trenches at Chernoble and poisoning themselves, the Russians have handed Chernoble back to the Ukrainians. This has not reduced the fighting elsewhere even though the Russians are taking a beating while they destroy buildings and kill civilians. Yes, A federal judge says parts of 2021 Florida voting law are unconstitutional and were aimed at discriminating against black voters. Florida will appeal. Putin is playing hardball demanding payments in Rubles for natural gas and oil. This fits right in with plans to eliminate such purchases entirely. Pelosi declines to call for Clarence Thomas to resign from the Supreme Court but calls his wife, 'an admitted and proud contributor to a coup'. As such she should be punished along with the other coup leaders. Good news for diabetes sufferers without good insurance. The House passed a bill capping the cost of insulin at $35 per month. An analysis of gerrymandering shows the country is almost evenly divided by the antic of both parties. This is an unlikely outcome of both parties behaving like jerks. DDT is still out there defending his call to Putin to provide dirt on Hunter Biden. New analysis seems to indicate that Hingter did accept large sums of money but from the Chinese, not the Russians.  DDT seems to admire Putin more than he does America. Not surprising after he attempted a coup. It really is time to indict DDT and lock him away for a long time. 

30 March (13056) MASA plus 432 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term Bad news is that COVID is starting to spread again with the new variant gaining ground, especially with the relaxation of mask requirements and the limiting of large gatherings. This is especially obvious with White House staffers becoming infected and the President taking few precautions. Congress has not provided money for a further round of COVID vaccines so that if the spread becomes wider the defense will be lacking. There is a 7-hour gap in White House phone records of calls from DDT. This suggests a coverup similar to the Nixon tapes coverup. DDT denies even hearing about burner phones, but John Bolton has testified that DDT and he had discussions about such phones. Redistricting for the next election is becoming a serious problem, especially in Ohio and Florida. In Ohio, the state supreme court has refused to hear the case of gerrymandering that is likely to cause the loss of two Democratic seats in the House, and in Florida, De Santis has vetoed the state legislators' bill for election maps in favor of his own highly biased maps. Not good at all. The really big news is the effect of the drought in California seriously affecting the production of crops feeding the US. The lack of water is forcing farmers to stop producing crops in the huge Central Vallery region. When food becomes in short supply and prices rise perhaps people will take climate change more seriously. Alex Jones, the Sandy Hook massacre denier, has been held in contempt of court for missing the Sandy Hook deposition.  I have no sympathy for someone that could exploit the tragedy that hit the school there. It appears that DDT has asked Putin for help finding dirt on Hunter Biden. DDT has no shame and no sense of morality. He acts like a traitor and should be treated like one. Lock DDT up for crimes committed that are too numerous to list.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (The LOSER)

MASA  = Make America Sane Again

29 March (13056) MASA plus 431 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Russia is trying to fake a withdrawal and also to take an impossible position in negotiations with Ukraine. Hopefully, no one will fall for it. Russia claimed it would reduce its attacks on Ukraine as delegates met for their latest face-to-face peace talks in Istanbul. This is probably a false move for a distraction. There is nothing much going on right this moment except all the usual Republican liars, like Cruz, gunning for political power. People should know better given the education that they have at the best universities. Then you have a dummy who is barely educated and these suckers are following him blindly. It is time to cut the head foo of the snake and throw DDT in jail for crimes committed.

28 March (13056) MASA plus 431 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I skipped yesterday as it was mostly more of the same with e butcher of Ukraine and political posturing with senators and congressmen that should know better. Here we have people who attended Yale and Harvard pretending to be the same as common folk who are lucky if they can attend community college. The statements coming out of the mouth of Ted Cruz and his cronies are as phony as a 3 dollar bill. But today, something significant happened. A federal judge found that DDT "more likely than not" illegally tried to obstruct Congress on January 6 ("more likely than not that President Trump corruptly attempted to obstruct the Joint Session of Congress on January 6, 2021."). In NewYork, On Monday, Judge Arthur F. Engoron ordered a digital forensics company that’s already helping the Trump Organization identify evidence to be much more explicit in its progress reports, so that, in the next few weeks, investigators can finally figure out whether to formally sue the former president’s firm for bank and insurance fraud. The delay tactics of DDT stink to high heaven. It is time to lock DDT up for crimes committed.

27 March (13056) MASA plus 430 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I skipped today. Blogger's day off. Still, lock DDT up and save America

26 March (13056) MASA plus 429 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Russian military is taking a beating with a large number of generals and upper officers killed puls an estimated 15,000 soldiers dead.  It is a war of ferocious incompetence with more to come. Indications are that Russia will concentrate on the Donbas region, but that might be misinformation. Meanwhile, the bombing of civilian targets in cities continues.  Biden's conversation with China's Xi did not produce much, at least not officially. Biden also made a verbal flub that Putin needed to be gone as head of Russia. This may be a true statement that one wishes the butcher of Ukraine were gone, but the president should not be the one saying that in public.  DDT gave a rally today that was more of the same grievances. It's time for DDT to go. Go where? Go to jail before he commits more crimes and does more damage to US democracy.

25 March (13056) MASA plus 428 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Can you believe that the illegal immoral Ukraine invasion by Russia has been going on for 31 days? Well, it has. And now Russia is shifting its goals to a narrow taking over of the small easter province of Donbas where there is a Russian presence already. To further the BS, top Russian military officials said Friday the operation in Ukraine was entering a new phase focused on the "complete liberation" of the eastern Donbas region, claiming Russia's assault on cities like Kyiv was part of a strategy to distract Ukrainian forces. They did not seem too distracted to me, they seemed quite focused. Focused enough to have killed close to 10,000 Russian troops. Clearly, Russia is looking for a retreat. In the east, N. Korea is increasing its menace to the US and other countries with the continued development of nuclear weapons and ICBMs. Unless national suicide is the goal, these weapons are not useable. The EU has now struck a deal with the US for natural gas supplies that undercuts Russia. It will not be easy or cheap but at least it will not be the subject of blackmail in foreign policy. The big scandal right now is Supreme Court Justice Thomas' wife Virginia and her radical opinions on the validity of the 2020 elections in support of DDT. How much of this rubs off on Justice Thomas? Her views are definitely against elections and democracy as we know it.  Lurking in the background is DDT wanting to be President again. Just imagine if DDT were president now with NATO in disarray and Russia deciding to take over all border states. It would be an unmitigated mess. It's time America to lock DDT up for crimes committed.

24 March (13056) MASA plus 427 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Alas poor Orsk, which is no more, we knew ye briefly as you traveled near Ukraine. Only to be sunk as a symbol of your shame. Yes, Ukraine is claiming to have sunk the Russian ship Orsk. Good riddance. The US is estimating that Russia has lost around 15,000 soldiers. Just wait until that news gets home. Russia is claiming that all its air attacks have been surgical, which explains the bombing of hospitals but not residential apartment buildings. They have a lot to answer for. Biden and EU leaders are pushing for Russia to be booted from the G20, which would be another blow to the economy. Hmm, North Korea has tested a larger ICBM. The problem with all of this testing and building is that N Korea cannot ever use these weapons unless it wishes to disappear. It's the same situation confronting the western powers and Russia's invasion of Ukraine in that a direct conflict with Russia might make Russia feel compelled to use nuclear weapons against western cities. This would be WW-3 and catastrophic for the world. Just great, we have the wife of a Supreme Court Justice (Thomas) pushing for the overturning of a US election. With a wife like that, Thomas has no business being on the Supreme Court. As always DDT has no business being anywhere near the governance of the US. Instead DTT belongs in jail for crimes committed. Lock DDT up.

23 March (13056) MASA plus 426 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Another day another bombing of Ukraine. DDT revoked his support of Brooks running for the Senate because Brooks said that the election was not a fraud. It is amazing how many people still are believing DDT and the claim of fraud. It is a weird group of people that are thinking that way, and a potentially dangerous group. According to the Washington Post, the right-wing groups are going after getting elected to government positions in order to destroy the government. They somehow think that all the services will be supplied by individual effort instead of a collective effort organized by the government. They need a quick trip to South America where the government rarely makes civic improvements unless things are so broken that it inspires revolt. Somehow these people think that all this can be done by private individuals without rules. Personally, I am not driving across a bridge not built to government-approved engineering standards. This applies to many areas of life from medication to recreation. Plus, we need rules to get criminals off the streets such as DDT who seems to have committed numerous crimes against those around him and the society he lives in. He appears to be an example of a predator living off of other people by committing fraud. It will be best for America if the rules-based society (rule of law) convicts DDT for crimes committed and locks him up.

22 March (13056) MASA plus 425 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The war grinds on with buildings destroyed and civilians killed. Russian military forces may prevail in the end, but they will gain nothing but a wasteland and an angry resentful remnant population. There was an article in the New York Times today describing the desire to reassert an expansive Russian empire including a good chunk of what is now Europe. The west is going to have to cope with a country steeped in the idea of empire. One hopes that it will not cause another World War, especially with a country possessing nuclear weapons and an apparent willingness to destroy anything in its way. I hope when the Russian casualty list hits home the Russian people will not accept the price of an empty venture. Presently, Ukraine is preventing Russian advances as the fight rages for Mariupol. The FBI is warning that Russia is exploring options for potential cyberattacks on the U.S. energy sector. If so, the response will be "interesting". Already new sanctions will be imposed on Russia as part of the meeting of Biden with EU leaders. With all this going on, it is hard to focus on the domestic scene with the fractious Senate hearings for the first black female Supreme Court Justice. And of course, there is the slow grinding of legal wheels to go after DDT and members of his family and businesses. It is important that DDT winds locked up in jail for crimes committed

21 March (13056) MASA plus 424 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Day 27 of the Ukraine invasion and war of attrition with many Ukrainians (men women and children killed) and over 3000 Russian soldiers killed. Zelensky says that the city of Mariupol is being reduced to ashes, which will leave the Russians with nothing if they finally capture it. Ukraine has rejected Adolph Putin's demand to surrender. The Nazi-in-chief is just going to continue slaughtering people until no one is left. I feel sorry for the Russian families that will have lost sons to an empty illegal immoral war. a Chinese airliner has crashed, nosedived, into the ground at over 4300 miles per hour killing all 132 people on board. There is no known reason yet for this tragedy. Perhaps pilot suicide.  DDT and his organization ae playing dirty with the New York prosecutor. Basically, they have hired a company to comply with the judge's search orders but have refused to make the company do the work. They are trying to run out the clock on the discovery period. Typical DDT stalling. Josh Hawley’s filthy attack on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is a hint at how low Republicans may go during her confirmation hearings. Hawley tweeted a lengthy thread last week accusing her of being lenient in dealing with sex offenders—particularly those who hurt children. Republicans need to be thrown out of government as a corrupt disruptive force. And at the same time, we need to convict DDT of crimes committed and throw him in jail.

20 March (13056) MASA plus 423 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Three weeks into the invasion, the conflict is shifting to a war of attrition, with bogged down Russian forces launching long-range missiles at cities and military bases as Ukrainian forces carry out hit-and-run attacks and seek to sever their supply lines. Zelensky has said that the Israelis can mediate but not between good and evil. Mitch McConnell said Sunday he hasn’t decided which way he’s going to vote on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Senate hearing for the Supreme Court. Yeah, right. If Biden prosed it Mitch is opposed. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was hospitalized with 'flu-like symptoms. COVID?   Who knows.  DDT is pushing hard for people to take up armed rebellion. Of course, right now it is just words. If it goes further, he really needs to be sent to jail along with the genius Putin.  Lock DDT up/

 

19 March (13056) MASA plus 422 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin is viciously pushing into the coastal city Mariupol and is shelling Kyiv. It is getting to the point that the west has to do something, take some risks, to stop the slaughter. Economic sanctions are not enough. Putin is playing the long game that once the occupation is a fact on the ground, the west will give up and life will go back to "normal". I will be sadly disappointed in the west if this is the case. Climate change is real and the threats are growing. It was thought that the earth was relatively benign except for the occasional hurricane or earthquake. It is becoming increasingly apparent that the benign feature is disappearing between fires, floods, and drought, and this is just the beginning. It will get worse, much worse, especially lack of water in some parts of the world such as the northern part of South America, which is dependent on mountain glacier water as is India. There will be floods first as the glaciers break up and dammed lakes are released followed by lack of water and then lack of food. Our Southwest is a baking summer example that is already short of water. The megadrought in the U.S. West has produced the driest two decades in the region in at least 1,200 years. The unwillingness of Republicans to face up to the looming catastrophe is amazing just because the idiot DDT has decided with his magic marker that climate change is fake. Why follow an idiot off the cliff?  A good start will be to convict DDT for crimes committed (numerous) and throw him in jail.

18 March (13056) MASA plus 421 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Joe Biden has warned Xi Jinping of ‘consequences’ if China backs Russia. It took almost two hours to say that so I expect there was quite a bit more to the conversation. “The president really laid out in a lot of detail the unified response from not only governments around the world, but also the private sector to Russia’s brutal aggression in Ukraine,” Let's hope that Xi Jinping was listening for his own self-interest and not just letting the words flow by. Putin gave a speech at a massive stadium rally attended by huge numbers of forced attendees, then the rally was cut off from state TV with a technical glitch blamed. Going back in history a little bit, Weeks after the 2020 election, at least one Trump White House aide was named as secretly producing a report that alleged Donald Trump lost to Joe Biden because of Dominion Voting Systems. Nothing new there just more chicanery. Time to end the nonsense and lock DDT up for crimes committed

17 March (13056) MASA plus 420 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The war drags on with the Nazi Putin showing no remorse or willingness to stop. It's all Heil Putin. You would think that Putin knowing what Hitler's Germany did to then Leningrad would be enough not to emulate the Nazis. But no, the Butcher of Moscow wants to be known as a war criminal for all time. Well, he has earned the right to his place in history. The only good thing is that Putin has almost completely replaced DDT in the public's consciousness. I am just glad that Putin's bitch is not our president anymore. Biden speaks to China's Xi tomorrow about the Ukraine situation and China's possible help to Russia. I hope this talk goes well. Interesting. Trump’s ex-chief of staff Mark Meadows is being investigated for voter registration fraud. The investigation is in response to claims that Meadows registered to vote in September 2020 at an address he did not reside at, own, or visit. Even though Putin has surpassed DDT in thuggery and evil, we still need to curtail a wanna-be Putin. Let's act sensibly and convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up.

DDT = Dumb Donal Trump (Putin's dog)

MASA = Make America Sane Again DDT=Dumb Donald Trump

16 March (13056) MASA plus 419 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Zelenskyy gave an emotional talk to Congress today pulling ou tall the stops in a bid for more help for Ukraine. He's getting the help with additional very lethal weapons that should cause the mentally sick Putin a lot of pain and a lot of dead Russians. Putin gave a talk today as well indicating that there is no easy way out of this mess. The man is sick and on a bruised ego trip. F. Carlson (rhymes with Tucker) also sided with Putin over Ukraine today. He should be banned from broadcast TV and cable. The Senate passed a law today making daylight savings time permanent. No more setting back clocks if the House also passes the bill. Except for F Carlson, Republicans were quiet today. Please America, do not let DDT get his nose under the tent again, instead throw DDT in jail for crimes committed.

15 March (13056) MASA plus 418 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden is planning a trip to Brussels to discuss Ukraine with our NATO allies. The Russian atrocities have become awful that NATO might feel it has to intervene more than it has to date and stop the slaughter. Both Russians and Ukrainians are dying in large numbers. Ukrainians must realize the country will not be joining NATO and must "count on ourselves and our partners who are helping us" to withstand the Russian onslaught, said President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. This provides an off-ramp for Putin to get the hell out of Ukraine before real disaster strikes. Sarah Bloom Raskin, President Joe Biden’s nominee to the Federal Reserve, withdrew her candidacy to serve at the central bank. This is in response to absolute Republican opposition because they deny climate change caused by coal, oil, and gas. The move came a day after Sen. Joe Manchin (who profits from coal), a conservative Democrat from West Virginia, said he could not support her nomination. The prime ministers of Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovenia traveled to the embattled Ukrainian capital of Kyiv and met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday in a show of support for Ukraine even as bombardment by the Russian military edged closer to the center of the city. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky used his nightly television address on Monday night to call on Russian troops to surrender and "survive." China now says it wants to steer clear of possible US sanctions for helping Russia. In my opinion, this is a good thing if genuine. We now have more states copying the Texas vigilante anti-abortion law. The amusing thing is that some states are implementing the type of citizen suing law for things like suing gun dealers for improper sales. Perhaps this will get the attention of the Supreme Court. Watch out! Europe is experiencing a resurgence of COVID, the US could be next. The Fed's first rate hike in more than three years will affect credit card, mortgage, savings rates. It will also affect the stock market. So, count your fingers if you shake hands with a stockbroker. DDT was relatively quiet today but still lurks in the pigpen waiting to break out and spread his manure everywhere. Please America lock DDT up for crimes committed and spare us the dirty smell.

14 March (12987) MASA plus 417 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The bombing of civilians continues in Ukraine with a convoy still bogged down near Kyiv. The toll on life is horrendous, both young Russians and mostly Ukrainian civilians. It appears, but is not certain, that Russia is planning to use poison gas as it did in Syria. There will come a point where the world cannot just stand by and watch the massacre. On the COVID front, China orders 51 million into lockdown amid the worst COVID outbreak since early 2020. So much for zero COVID tolerance. More hate crimes against Asians in NYC. There are sick people everywhere. DeSantis must be overjoyed, Spring break 2022: Florida reports 10,000 COVID cases, 863 newly reported deaths in a week. His policies are working to depopulate the state. Elect him president and he will work to depopulate you too. He is a wanna-be DDT. Speaking of which, we need to lock DDT up before he officially starts running for President again.

13 March (12987) MASA plus 416 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Russia is looking for resupply of bullets from China and asking for help fighting mighty Ukraine. The US has warned China of economic repercussions if they materially help Russia. A Russian airstrike on a Ukrainian base has killed 35. At least it was not a civilian target this time. The carnage goes on in a war Russia cannot win long-term even if they bomb Ukraine to rubble as they did in Syria. Putin has aspirations to be known as Putin the Great but instead will be remembered as the butcher of Ukraine, OMG. DDT says he may have to run for President in 2024 as part of a lie-packed rambling speech in South Carolina. The plague of DDT has got to end before he and his followers destroy America. Iran is acting up firing missiles near the US consulate in Iraq. Fortunately, there were no injuries. Iraq is not thrilled by having its airspace invaded by Iran. It's time America to convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up.

12 March (12987) MASA plus 415 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I skipped a day. DDT ran a fundraiser that promised there would be a drawing and winner. But as with most things DDT, there was fine print that basically said thanks for the cash sucker. Putin seems determined to continue with his petty war to satisfy his oversized ego. Large numbers of  Russian troops are getting killed in a poorly led attack on Ukraine. There will be a big domestic price to pay when this is all over. The US and NATO are considering sending more advanced weapons to further bloody Putin's nose. I hope so. A Whitehouse-sponsored bill would make daylight savings time permanent year-round. Republican House member Kinzinger now says his biggest regret is voting not ot impeach DDT. There may be a war in Ukraine, but the biggest threat to the world and US peace is the possibility of DDT becoming president. Republicans have already said that if they win the presidency they will withdraw from NATo and other treaty organizations as the first order of business.  To prevent this, Democrats must come out and vote and also put DDT in jail for crimes committed,

10 March (12987) MASA plus 413 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The slaughter goes on with more to come. The 40-mile long Russian convoy has broken up with tanks and artillery moving into the surrounding countryside and woods. This will make it harder for Ukraine to pick them off. It appears that they are getting ready to shell Kyiv and cause more civilian devastation. Putin, the Nazi dictator, is following in Hitler's footsteps, only it's Ukraine instead of Poland. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov claims Russia ‘didn’t attack Ukraine’. Our brilliant Florida governor DeSantis attacks Disney day after CEO speaks against 'Don't Say Gay'. If I lived in Florida, I would say "you idiot". Another new worry. The Biden administration says two North Korean missile launches in recent weeks were test firings of a powerful new long-range ICBM and warned Thursday that a full-range test could soon follow. This is like watching a global horror movie in slow motion.  DDT was relatively quiet today. Let's keep him that way except for a daily phone call from prison. Lock DDT up for crimes committed.

9 March (12987) MASA plus 412 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Russian military is disgusting. They might as well be Hitler's Nazis in the way they are behaving towards civilians. One of the latest is that Russian airstrikes devastated a maternity and children's hospital complex in Mariupol, burying women and children under debris and injuring more than a dozen, Secretary of State Blinken said that Putin will fail and Russia will suffer strategic defeat’ in Ukraine. Russia may win the battles but will lose the war with a lot of dead soldiers and a destroyed reputation. I am betting that even China will abandon Putin. YAY:  Congress finally delivered a budget, and NASA gets most of what it wanted. Congress's favorite rocket, of course, got extra funding, while science did not. As usual, Congress is a bit crazy funding a rocket that will cost billions for each launch instead of taking one of those billions and giving it to science. On a lighter note: An assistant principal in Mississippi was fired last week after reading the very funny children’s book “I Need a New Butt!” to a class of second-grade students. The book is not suggestive of anything sexual in any way, The superintendent of the Hinds County School District, Price, should be fired instead. Watch out DeSantis, 2 Billion Genetically Modified Mosquitoes Cleared for Release in California and Florida that are supposed to eliminate some nasty pests. You are high on the pest list especially since you said the word "gay". Now if we just could have both pests eliminated politically with one of you, DDT, sent to jail.

8 March (12987) MASA plus 411 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. William Barr is something else. He said he would crawl over broken glass to vote for DDT because DDT got to pick Supreme Court Justices. The bottom line in Barr's thinking is that he would risk America to get conservative Justices on the Court. The result has been a disaster if you value democracy and voting. Plus Barr knew the DDT was a crazy unethical person. Thank God that both DDT and Barr are gone. One without brains and the other without principles. The first of the 6 January insurrection trials has ended with a conviction on all counts.  Russia is about to default on its National Debt. Not surprising given the sanctions. The EU is planning to cut it consumption of Russian oil by 2/3. DDT has jumped on Biden for banning Russian oil with a statement "do you miss me yet?". The short answer is a resounding NO. It is time for us to really miss DDT by putting him in jail for crimes committed,

7 March (12987) MASA plus 410 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin's nazi butchers are still at it, pounding away at civilians and refugees. Putin refuses to negotiate meaningfully on even humanitarian grounds about civilians. At least one prominent person, Bill Ackman, is arguing that we are witnessing the start of WW-3. “The Ukrainians with the right weapons and resources have proven that they have what it takes to win the war, unless and until Putin goes nuclear,” he said. “Our reason for not doing more appears to be our fear of provoking Putin.” I certainly hope he is wrong. Putin has this idea that he will go down in Russian history as a hero. Instead, he will go down as a soulless destroyer of Russia and perhaps a good portion of the planet. The US is collecting evidence, along with the Europeans, of war crimes that will be submitted to the international court. As of now, more than 1.7 million refugees have fled Ukraine with numbers growing daily. With a Russian oil embargo likely, the US is reaching out to Venezuela to up oil production. War makes strange bedfellow. According to the Washington Post, Roger Stone said Jared Kushner should be 'punished in the most brutal possible way' in previously unheard recordings. On a more cheerful note, the Global COVID-19 death toll surpasses 6 million and gasoline prices are continuing to rise.  DDT is now praising both Putin and North Korea's Kim as examples of brave bold leaders that he wants to emulate. Let's emulate DDT right to jail.

6 March (12970) MASA plus 409 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is nauseating watching Putin's Nazis attack an innocent country like Ukraine just like Hitler attacked Poland at the start of WW-2. The parallel is frightening and the motive is about the same as Hitler's (Lebensraum) and an excuse because there are Russian-speaking people in both Russia and Ukraine (German-speaking people in Poland). The world has to learn from history or it is doomed. Insane dictators must be stopped early of there is no limit to their appetite. More tomorrow. As for today, keep going after DDT and Putin with DDT in jail in the US and Putin, who knows.

5 March (12970) MASA plus 408 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The news has not gotten any better. It is still the Russian military employing siege warfare to destroy whole cities. Some are now without food, heat, and light. When this is over, Russia will look like and be branded as the criminal state it has been since Putin took over. Putin today declared the economic sanctions are a declaration of war. Withdraw, you idiot, and the sanctions will disappear. Being part of the world economy means more than just selling oil and minerals to enrich the few. The Russians cannot even be trusted to respect their own no-fire zones to let civilians escape (mostly women and children). This should really hurt, VISA and Mastercard have stopped operations in Russia. I guess the Ruble will be king. Pretty soon there will have to be 1 million Ruble notes to buy a loaf of bread. Because of the Russian blockade of ports, most of the military aid will be coming in through NATO countries like Poland. Will Russia attack Poland? That would trigger a wider war for sure. There was a telecon with Zelensky today where there was an agreement not to publish pictures of the meeting for security reasons. Of course, that genius Teddy Cruz could not resist even during the telecon patting himself on the back by posting pictures of the telecon. Cruz needs to be kicked out of the Senate. More yachts and planes were seized as part of the sanctions campaign, one with faucets purportedly costing $40,000 each. What is going on? Platinum faucets with diamonds? Former National Security Advisor John Bolton says 'Putin was waiting for DDT to withdraw the United States from NATO if he won a second term.  Bolton also said Trump's "main interest" in Ukraine was trying to "find Hillary Clinton's computer server."  The Post's Michael Duffy asked Bolton how close DDT came to withdrawing the country from NATO, a transatlantic security alliance that includes the United States, Canada, and most of Europe. "I thought he put his foot over it, but at least he didn't withdraw then," said Bolton,  "It was hard to have discussions on geostrategic issues when the president's main interest was getting... Rudy Giuliani in to see [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelensky so they could go find Hillary Clinton's computer server. That is all the US needs is a Russian sympathizer as president while trying to be a dictator himself. What the DDT sympathizers do not realize is that DDT will turn on them next for not following orders. The rest of the world will now have to increase the production of oil and gas to compensate for the reductions in Russian oil and gas. This is especially true of the US and the middle eastern countries. Also appalling is the Putin supporting position of India, which is a military client state of Russia. India has no moral compass. It is time to lock up both DDT and Putin before more damage is done both here and abroad.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (The Loser)

 

4 March (12870) MASA plus 407 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Still just depressing. Zelanasky has appealed for a no-fly zone and was turned down. Putin has declared that any attempt to imposer a no-fly zone would be an act of war. Both DDT and Putin need to be locked up

3 March (12870) MASA plus 406 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Too depressing to talk today Just lock DDT up and be done with it. 

2 March (12870) MASA plus 405 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It looks like Biden's State of the Union message was watched by over 37 million viewers. That is a lot.The war grinds on with Russia resorting to its siege tactics of destroying a city in order to win the city. It reminds me of Russia in Syria. An atrocity. The Ukrainians are bravely standing up to Russia and stopping their advance to Kyiv. There is a huge column of Russian vehicles on the road to Kyiv that is basically stalled for lack of fuel and food. It is slowly being picked off by armed drones and hand-carried missiles. Ukraine is winning the war of ideas leaving Russia as a pariah state. Russia is now economically isolated, its currency almost worthless, its assets beyond reach. The economy should collapse and the war efforts falter. Putin is now making claims that Ukraine was preparing nuclear weapons to attack Russia. This is too stupid to even comment upon. The biggest effect has been to unite NATO and Europe with the US to have common goals. Today, more U.S. troops were deployed to Europe and Secretary of State Blinken called Putin's rhetoric on nuclear arms ‘dangerous’. The International Criminal Court opened a Ukraine war crimes investigation. This will probably lead to Putin being branded an international criminal. According to Yahoo News, " Plagued by poor morale as well as fuel and food shortages, some Russian troops in Ukraine have surrendered en masse or sabotaged their own vehicles to avoid fighting, a senior Pentagon official said Tuesday. These factors may help explain why Russian forces, including an ominous 40-mile convoy of tanks and armored vehicles near Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, have come to a near crawl in recent days, U.S. officials said. There are more idiots than just DDT and Putin. "This is ridiculous’: said DeSantis caught on camera berating teens for wearing masks. It is ridiculous, to say something like that. The Biden administration is restricting exports of key technologies to Belarus in response to its support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and leveling new sanctions on Russia’s defense sector. I think Putin misjudged Biden and the rest of the world, and especially Ukraine. DDT is still throwing his support behind Putin. For this and other crimes, DDT needs to be locked up.

1 March 2022 (12870) MASA plus 405 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Tonight Biden gave his State of the Union message to the country and the world. I've heard a lot of commentary on this speech and disagree with it strongly. There were criticisms that he did not spend enough time explaining Ukraine. Yes, he could have taken 10 more minutes and given a short history lesson. This would have been totally unnecessary for most educated people and too short for those that fell asleep in history class. As his speech was, it was strong and forceful leaving no doubt that the US would support Ukraine short of sending in American troops. He pushed Congress to move quickly. The domestic side was strong also but mostly not aimed at being confrontational. Yeah, you had Marjorie Greene who was mouthing off at almost everything. But what do you expect from her? She's just being true to herself, stupid. I thought that Biden did his best in a speech to emphasize bringing the country together for things that we all consider important. He threw a few punches at the "former administration" aka DDT, but not so many as to alienate Republicans. He was forceful and well-spoken.  Compared to the performances of DDT, it was a miracle. On an absolute basis, it was one of the better State of the Union speeches I have heard. As for DDT, he needs to be in jail, the sooner the better.

28 February (12870) MASA plus 404 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Ukraine is seeking an immediate ceasefire and withdrawal of Russian troops. That's not going to happen until Putin gets more of a bloody eye. There is lots of Russian armor massed together that can be conveniently destroyed. A lot of their vehicles are simply running out of fuel. Stupid planning. Space-X is donating satellite internet antennas to put access to the internet out of Russia's reach. The US has now cut off the Russian central bank from accessing dollars. This should hurt. Kevin McCarthy has condemned Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar for attending an 'appalling and wrong' white nationalist event: 'This is unacceptable'. It's late for them to see the light but better late than never. From the Guardian: It is less than a week into the war and it seems increasingly likely that Vladimir Putin is heading towards a historic defeat. He may win all the battles but still lose the war. With each passing day, it is becoming clearer that Putin’s gamble is failing. The Ukrainian people are resisting with all their heart, winning the admiration of the entire world – and winning the war. Even neutral Finland and Sweden are now supporting Ukraine. Funny incident. A Ukrainian sailor tried to sink his boss's 7.7 million dollar boat and then left for the war in Ukraine. Russia will be a mess economically. How will it fight back is anyone's guess. DDT has claimed that if it were not for him, NATO would not exist today. What a stupid joke. It is time to get this idiot off the scene. Lock DDT up for crimes committed.

 

27 February (12870) MASA plus 403 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Lots of Russian armor was knocked out and lives were lost. I feel sorry for the families, but not for the aggressor, Russia, and Putin. Today, more carnage and more deaths on both sides. I have not seen the use of the Turkish drones that Ukraine has against Russian armor. It should be very effective. I was watching a long column of military vehicles alone on a Ukrainian road and wondered why the Ukrainians have not knocked out the first and last vehicles before working on the middle. Perhaps later. Putin has ordered his nuclear forces on high alert. A stupid move if there ever was one. This just increases the danger of a mistake. No one is physically threatening Russia in any way. Finally, Putin has forced Germany to take its head out of the sand and increase its military forces as well as sell arms to Ukraine. Ukraine claimed a major victory Sunday against invading Russian forces, saying its military had fought back and retaken full control of the nation’s second-largest city, Kharkiv, amid heavy warfare. Germany has been an embarrassment to NATO and to the US. DDT is mouthing off again. At CPAC DDT made a terrifying new promise to his followers: I will hurt Democrats for you. America, do you really want a dictator?  He will eventually come for you too. Most of the world is turning against Putin, China being a quiet exception. I just hope the American electorate wakes up and prevents Republicans and particularly DDT or look-alikes from becoming President. It is time to lock DDT up and quiet the running mouth-sore that he is and always has been.

26 February (12870) MASA plus 402 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Too depressed to write about the news today. Going to sleep instead. Ukraine fights on and DDT keeps wanting to be our first dictator along with DeSantis. Depressing. Make me happy and lock DDT up for crimes committed.

25 February (12870) MASA plus 401 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The invasion goes on with a fairly high cost to Russian forces. An ominous picture was displayed of a line of attack helicopters along a road waiting to be dispatched against Ukrainian targets. There must have been at least 20 helicopters. I am a bit surprised that there have not been more shoot downs of planes and helicopters. Putin is so crazy that he has now threatened both Finland and Sweden with attacks if they even think about joining NATO.  Russia had a fight with Finland in WW2 and lost. Today might be different given the size of their respective armies, but then Russia would be in a multifront war. The Republican party is backing away from DDT's support of Putin as fast as they can go except for some diehards like Ted Cruz who is trying to blame Biden for Putin's attack on Ukraine. Since there is no chance of outside help for Ukraine, all we can do is watch. It's hard to remember but DDT withheld 400 million in military aid and now claims that this attack would never have occurred if he were president. I agree with DDT. He would just have invited Putin into Ukraine and avoided all the conflict. Having a man making traitorous statements as President is difficult to swallow, but that is what he seems to be and was. It is time to throw the idiot in jail for crimes committed.

 

24 February (12888) MASA plus 400 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The invasion keeps going with rocket attacks in Kyiv and other cities. Russia has captured the useless Chernoble damaged reactor.  Ukraine is on full mobilization. Biden has put heavy sanctions on Russia but not as heavy as possible. One notable exception is that Biden has not gone after Putin's personal fortune. More sanctions are to come as long as there is support from our European allies. Putin has threatened nuclear war if anyone interferes. The man has gone insane with power. In an interesting interview, the former head of NATO said that NATO has 3 times as many soldiers, planes, and tanks as does Russia if an ext3ended war were to break out. There is some small comfort in those numbers. The Ukrainian government has called on hackers worldwide to attack Russia as a penalty for starting this war.  China is blaming the US for the war and refuses to acknowledge that Russia has invaded Ukraine. Various people are reminding DDT to wipe the shoe polish off his face after the Helsinki meeting with Putin. No one knows what was said as DDT even confiscated the translator's notes and said to reporters that it was none of their business what was said between Putin and DDT. It is still shocking to me that yesterday DDT doubled down in his statement admiring Putin.  In US news, a jury convicted the other police officers involved in the George Floyd murder for basically standing by and watching Chauvin kill Floyd. It is time to put that possible traitor and active idiot DDT in jail for crimes committed.

23 February (12870) MASA plus 399 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin has gone and done it. He has invaded Ukraine with no pretense. Explosions have been heard in Kyiv. The man is playing such a dangerous game that could spin out of control and involve a lot more than just Ukraine. One mistake and the west and Russia could cease to exist. Who would benefit? China. Meanwhile, DDT and some of his right-wing cohorts are praising Putin as a stateman genius for going to war in Europe. Putin gave a speech rewriting history attempting to justify armed aggression against a nation recognized everywhere. The man is isolated from reality and has a nationalistic chip on his shoulder that he uses to retain personal power. Will ever stiffing sanctions work on a megalomanic. Probably not. Putin is playing the game that Russia will have to belt tighten in the short term, but that the west will give in after a while. The statements by DDT and Republican right-wing supporters are treasonous and should be treated that way. In New York, the Attorney General is ignoring the DDT criminal case in favor of trying to protect his political standing after a stupid set of statements about not dealing with crime. This neglect has caused two key prosecutors to resign putting the criminal case in limbo, but not the civil case, which still goes on. It is time for America to put DDT on trial for his criminal activities both in New York and while he was President. Time to lock him up.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump the Loser

MASA = Make America Sane Again and DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the loser)

22 February (12870) MASA plus 398 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin has gone and done it by sending in troops formally into the breakaway regions of Ukraine with no regard for consequences. He is operating under the idea that the west will do nothing in response that is of consequence. He may be correct. The west will certainly not want WW3. Biden has already announced some fairly strong penalties but is waiting a bit until all of our European allies are in line before exerting stronger sanctions. Germany has already banned the Nord-Stream gas pipeline. Blinken has canceled meetings with his Russian counterpart. This is a very dangerous game Putin is playing. One mistake and both Russia and the west essentially cease to exist. DDT has hailed Russian President Vladimir Putin as “savvy” and called his move on Ukraine “genius”. Just what we need. A pro-Russian former president. DDT saw another defeat in his effort to stop the 6 January Select Committee’s investigation into the causes and events of the Capitol riot.  It seems so slow, but the wheels are grinding. One hopes the legal machinery will spit DDT out and right into jail.

 

 

21 February (12834) MASA plus 397 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Looks like Russia just took the first steps in an invasion of Ukraine. Biden has announced the first set of sanctions. One hopes this does not spread into a wider war, especially a nuclear war. The only winner would be China. The Biden administration has discussed plans to relocate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky from Kyiv to Lviv in western Ukraine in the event of a Russian invasion, NBC reported. really bad long-term news. The ice sheet in Greenland is melting from the bottom up. Why bad news, glad you asked. Water makes the glaciers slippery over rocks and can unstably slide into the ocean causing massive sea-level rise. The more contagious version of Omicron, and more deadly too, is spreading in the US. It's in 30 states and now makes up just 4% of new infections. Hopefully, it will fade with the warmer weather. Another thing about warmer weather is that the heat will probably get turned up under DDT and lead to his being incarcerated (lock him up).

20 February (12834) MASA plus 396 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden gas agreed to meet with Putin as long as he does not invade Ukraine. Right move Joe. Who says that DDT does not have a sense of humor. He just launched his "Truth" social app on the Apple App store with the name as its first lie. I wonder how long Apple will allow the app to stay up once the lies start in earnest? More gun violence. This time in Portland Oregon as part of a protest. Bojo has lifted all mask restrictions in violent disagreement with doctors. Not a surprise. Bojo is a British version of DDT with a bigger vocabulary. Big news; used car prices are dropping in the US. It might be the first signal that inflation is easing. Very disturbing is the news that COVID infections are leading to long-term heart problems. While the law appears to be closing in on DDT, it cannot come soon enough for me. Lock  the crooked DDT up.

19 February (12834) MASA plus 395 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Russia’s  Putin oversaw military maneuvers by strategic nuclear missile forces as the worst crisis since the Cold War grips Europe. Russia successfully test-launched hypersonic and cruise missiles at sea and land-based targets during the exercises. The problem with all of this is the use of these forces is national suicide in Russia and murder by Russia outside of Russia. Putin seems to be willing to risk all for very little gain. One mistake and the world as we know it disappears. At the same time, Russian-backed separatists inside of Ukraine announced a full mobilization of their forces. From Axios: Ukrainian President  Zelensky gave a searing criticism of Western inaction against Russian aggression on Saturday, Putin has made the decision to invade, but not impose sanctions until the attack has begun: "What are you waiting for? We don’t need sanctions after bombardment happens after we have no borders, no economy. Why would we need those sanctions then?" Europe has been ducking the problem of a belligerent neighbor for decades in order to save money maintaining a credible defense. The result is that there is little in the way of proximate forces to deter Russia other than the threat of economic sanctions. Yes, there are some US troops there as a tripwire against a larger war, but little in the way of local forces from Germany, France, Poland, Hungry, etc. Will a war affect the US, The short answer is yes. The effect will be huge. DDT is trying to duck the charges that he absconded with classified material, claiming that the recovery of Presidential records was just ordinary, just like his orange face color. We need to get that orange face color into a color-coordinated jail cell and throw away the key.

18 February (12782) MASA plus 394 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT lost again. This time in court. DDT and family has been ordered to testify under oath to the prosecutor's questions. DDT is claiming it is a witch hunt. This time he is right since he is the witch and has been caught. The hunt will not be over until He and some of his family are locked up in appropriate-sized cages. Another problem is looming for DDT consisting of his carrying classified material to his home in Florida. It has been a quiet Friday with everyone waiting for the other shoe to drop in Ukraine and for DDT to appear to testify even if he refuses to talk. It is long past time to lock DDT up.

17 February (12782) MASA plus 393 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Tempus fugit. But today a judge issued orders that DDT and family be compelled to testify under oath about the bank fraud charges. The 7000 troops are still there and the world is waiting for war. Putin is playing a very dangerous game, but it has awakened Europe to the fact that peace has to be earned through strength. And that takes effort and money. In Ukraine, there was shelling with a school hit. Each side blaming the other, of course. YAY. The Senate passed a bill to prevent another government shutdown that is only good to March 11. Fools. A new study show risk of increased mental disorders after COVID. That explains a lot about DDT's more recent behavior ever since he came down with COVID. Not that the needs a new reason to be insane. Brazil's president, Bolsonaro, is now cozying up to Putin in the vain hope that it will help him hold onto power. He is trying to emulate Maduro in Venezuela. When the dictator in training was president in the US, DDT, Bolsonaro cozied up to him. With DDT gone, it is Putin's turn. It is time to get rid of that disrupter of Democracy, DDT, and throw him in jail 

16 February (12782) MASA plus 392 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Russia withdrew 2 carts of horse manure and added 7000 troops. So much for the claim that it was withdrawing forces other than horse poop. No wonder DDT liked Putin. They both lie as needed.  DDT is going after Clinton about the 2016 election and spying on his campaign. There is no documentation of such spying, but when did the absence of facts bother DDT.  So far it looks like a manufactured scandal. The White House is thinking about cutting gasoline taxes to lower gas prices temporarily. It would save consumers a small amount of money, but also would bankrupt the highway trust fund. Not very smart, plus oil companies almost certainly would take advantage and raise prices. Retail sales are up in spite of inflation and the jobs numbers are encouraging, but the stock market is worried about war and inflation. The big thing ot watch is the Republican effort to take over the election process through winning the normally sleepy election of officials overseeing the election process. One such has expressed no hesitation about changing election results she does not like. It's time to split up the Republican party into two entities, one willing to govern and the other to obstruct. And while we are at it put the chief rat, DDT, in jail and throw away the cheese.

15 February (12782) MASA plus 391 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin seems to have blinked and claims to have started a withdrawal of military hardware. Satellite data confirms that he has withdrawn 2 trucks worth of horse manure. Biden is hanging tough and has shipped a lot of lethal defensive weapons. Any attack will cause a lot of Russian deaths especially for those in tanks. I hope Putin sees that Ukraine is not worth it. Sarah Palin has lost in court over the New York Times accidentally publishing an error and then correcting it. There was no malice. Of course, there will be an appeal, which I hope she loses. If she wins, the effect on a free press will be devastating. Right now the biggest fights are at the local election boards in many states, which sets up the possibility for real fraudulent elections with the biased officials changing the real vote to suit themselves. . Very dangerous to democracy. These are all people supported by DDT, who is still fuming over his very real loss to Biden. It is time to put an end to this tinpot would-be dictator and lock him up.

14 February MASA plus 390 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's Valentine's day. I'm giving it a rest. Just quietly lock DDT up in a red heart shaped cell

13 February (12778) MASA plus 389 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. More and more pressure is being put on Putin internationally not to invade Ukraine. The question is has Putin painted himself into a corner politically? If he has, then some level of invasion is inevitable. Governor Larry Hogan (MD) has joined the small chorus of Republicans that have not totally lost their minds and has blasted the Republican party for calling 6 January "Legitimate Political Discourse". Hogan is setting himself up for 2024 and a run for President. No question, Hogan is better than DDT or DeSantis. I suspect Hogan would resect government norms and not try to be a dictator. Holy Super Bowl. No avocados in your bowl. U.S. officials suspended imports of avocados from Mexico on the eve of Super Bowl LVI after a U.S. plant safety inspector received a threat, It's a quiet Sunday with DDT being unusually quiet except for toilet flushing sounds. It's time to flush DDT down the drain and leave the world with one less stain: Lock DDT up.

12 February MASA plus 388 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The top headline is Ukraine again. The pot keeps boiling but so far has not overflowed. Over 10 counties are now evacuating citizens. Can Putin back down from the corner he has painted himself into? Finally, the Canadian government is moving to clear the bridges of protestors. Hard to believe. Senator Rand Paul is encouraging similar truck blockades in the US. He wants truckers to clog up US cities. It has already started in France. Perhaps they should clog up his street. It's crazy but politIcally understandable, governors, Republicans and Democrats, are relaxing mask requirements. Let's hope there will not be a resurgence of COVID. racism never stops. Father and son chased ad shot at a Fed-EX drive because he was black. Enough for today. DDT has been exceptionally quiet. He must be exhausted from stuffing papers down the toilet at Mar a Lago. Speaking of stuffing, let's stuff DDT in jail for crimes committed both large and small.

11 February MASA plus 387 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Top secret? That's for little people, not DDT. So what that he took papers marked top secret and stored them unsecured in Mar a Lago. What difference did it make? Don't you know who he is? He is the best most secure person that ever lived. Now, Hillary's emails are another thing along with Benghazi. Biden and Putin are going to talk tomorrow, Saturday. For everyone's sake let's hope some progress can be made. Hey Putin, no "shootin"!  Prosecutors have lots of DDT's scribblings in his sharpie pens that probably give a clue as to his state of mind when he was doing illegal things. One can hope. More shootings. This time in Phoenix Arizona where 1 woman was killed and 5 police wounded. It appears that US truckers are going to try to do a blockade similar to that of the Canadians on Super Bowl day. I can see the mess now. interesting article today in the Washington Post about QAnon followers trying to get elected to posts in the estates that control elections so as to be able to overturn results that they do not like. This is ominous indeed for democracy. If nothing else, we need to cut off the head of the snake and lock DDT up for crimes committed.

 

10 February MASA plus 386 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT was flushed with power, but could not flush the toilet stuffed with white house documents. They had to get a plumber with security clearances to clear the pipes. It would be funny if it were not so ridiculous. US automakers are having to bypass the Canadian bridge blockade even as they close plant shifts for lack of work. A Seattle man was sentenced to 6 months in federal prison for punching officers in the failed 6 January insurrection. Good for him. Free housing for 6 months. He won the lottery. The stock market plunged today on news of more inflation. Gasoline prices are rising rapidly hurting ordinary people badly along with increasing prices on everything. Apparently, DDT evaded the White House call logs on 6 January since he knew what he was doing was illegal. The crap against DDT keeps piling up. Hopefully, some will stick and land the bugger in jail.

9 February MASA plus 385 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. As expected, DDT fired back at McConnell and accused him of not representing the Republican Party as it is today. For once DDT is right. McConnell's statement of conscience does not represent the reprehensible immoral Republican party of today and especially not the views of the criminal-minded DDT. Many states (both Democrat and Republican) are lifting the mask requirements against CDC advice even though OMICRON is still raging and the death toll is increasing. Nothing like playing politics with people's lives. Of course, you can still wear your mask for some protection. More trouble for DDT. The National Archives has asked the Justice Department to investigate DDT's handling of presidential records. It will be an interesting side play. More shootings. This time a school bus driver in Minneapolis. The 6 January failed insurrection attempt investigation narrows on DDT with the questioning of close top aides. The not too bright but greedy Senator. Tommy Tuberville, who violated stock-trading rules 132 times last year, says it's 'ridiculous' to ban lawmakers from trading stocks". Right! The French president Macron said he had received personal assurances from Vladimir Putin that Russia would not worsen the crisis over Ukraine. Good. Let's hope that Macron's balloon is not filled with hot air. Fed rate hikes are imminent. Lock in if you are borrowing. Remember, we must end DDT's reign of terror, lock him up and thorow away the key.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the Sad Loser)

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the loser) MASA = Make America Sane

8 February MASA plus 384 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. McConnell must have been working with his therapist. All of a sudden he is ripping his fellow Republicans for their "just polite visitors expressing their opinions" view of the very violent 6 January failed insurrection attempt. I will give old McConnell credit that there are limits, even for him, that he will not go past. The Canadian protests are getting serious in that they are interfering economically with important cross-border trade. Plus, people living nearby are having their lives upended by the blocked streets and the incessant horn honking. It is time to start confiscating trucks and making arrests for the most egregious violators. Macron visited with Putin to hold discussions on Ukraine and other European security problems. Indicative of how difficult this was is seen in the picture of Macron and Putin seated at the far ends of an obscenely long table. With distance like that, there is not much hope for the present at least.  Pro-DDT voters are now very likely to not care about what is going on in the world if it does not appear to be affecting them directly. It is the resurrection of the "Know-Nothing" party. The house has passed a short-term funding bill to avoid a government shutdown and has sent it to the Senate to avoid the 18 February deadline. Let's see if McConnell has recovered his senses. Now even deer are carrying Omicron and refusing to wear masks. Watch out when you stroll in the woods. DDT is still fulminating about the 2020 elections and threatening armed rebellion.DDT seriously needs to be locked up for a long time and soon, please.

7 February MASA plus 383 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden picked a ringer as science advisor who wound up bullying his staff and creating a fearful atmosphere. He has been forced to resign. Good riddance to anyone like that. Biden it threatening no NordStream pipeline for Russian gas into Europe. Can that threat be sustained?  OMG. The Supreme Court sided with the Republicans in the Alabama gerrymandering case stopping the order to redraw obviously unfair manipulated voting maps. This is a disaster since the ruling will wind up applying to other states. More shootings, this one in a Washington State grocery store with 1 dead and the suspect still at large. Canada is in the midst of an economically disrupting siege by anti-vaxers driving trucks. What fun. The National Archives forcibly retrieved boxes of DDT's White House documents from his residence at Mar-a Lago. Typical crooked DDT. Peter Thiel, PayPal founder, and DDT ally is stepping down from Meta board. Thiel, who was a major donor to the Republican party, was part of the reason why Facebook did not censor DDT. It's time to put a stop to the Republican Party as now constituted with people intent on destroying democracy and a leader willing to use force to illegally obtain power. We've seen this act before in 3rd world countries. It's a disaster. Start the cure by locking DDT up for crimes committed.

6 February MASA plus 382 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Mini-me Ron DeSantis is threatening to investigate the GoFundMe organization for fraud because they refuse to send about 9 million to truckers in Canada where the antivaccine protests have turned violent. Mini-me is a dictator in training just flexing what muscles he has in Florida. DeSantis is becoming like a South American despot with his own mini police force to frighten voters. More shootings, this time at Patrick Henry High School near Virginia Tech (Blacksburg VA). The shootings never stop. Three thousand US troops have now arrived in Poland to reinforce Eastern European allies. Russia now appears to have about 70% of the troops in place needed for an invasion of Ukraine. If they go through with a war, it is likely to be a bloody, even if brief, war. Even th eslot machines in Vegas like to cheat, but a human caught the bugger and made thins right. An Arizona man hit a $220K jackpot that the machine refused to tell him about. However, the Las Vegas gaming board tracked the man down and made it right. Machine 0 Humans 1. Record employment figures occurred this past month, Now, if inflation can be brought under control without destroying the economy we can declare victory. More and more people are growing weary of the COVID mask and vaccination rules and are pushing for a return to pre-pandemic life. I can understand, being frustrated myself. I guess is it will take a major upsurge in deaths before most people start being careful again. It is quiet again today except for the continuing build-up on the Ukrainian border. If war breaks out the effect on the economy will be dire, both here and in Europe, and of course, the chance that the war will spread as happened in World War 2. A lot of people will die, but it will be nothing compared to what might happen if some idiot starts firing missiles witn nuclear warheads. As always, DDT is still an important target for a Justice Department missile putting DDT in jail. Lock DDT up and for God's sake, do not let one of the Mini-me's become president.

5 February MASA plus 381 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Old crow DDT went after fellow old crow Mitch McConnell for agreeing with Mike Pence that he, Pence, had no authority to overturn the vote count. Keep going DDT and soon no one will pay any attention to your incessant lies. DDT loses again. North Carolina’s new political district maps, which would have given Republicans a big advantage, are unconstitutional, N.C. Supreme Court ruled Friday. Rep. Adam Kinzinger said the vote to censure him shows "frigging crazy the Republican Party has become." He also said that the Republican party is not his "tribe" anymore. I did not realize that the US has sent 3000 troops to Poland stationed near the Ukraine border. Please, guys, do not make mistakes. Thousands gathered in protest in one of Ukraine's cities against the Russian presence on Ukraine's borders. Other than that, nothing much else appears to be of significance this Saturday evening. Except, of course, the tragedy of a small boy dying that was trapped in a deep well and a couple of the now usual shootings. What would be unusual is if one of the courts put DDT on trial, convicted him. and sent DDT to rot in jail.

4 February MASA plus 380 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Belatedly, Pence is trying to act as a moral person and turning on DDT just a little bit by saying the obvious, namely, that he had no power to overturn the election. It's a tiny crack in the veneer of his normally unethical behavior. Better something than nothing from a man that sums to almost nothing. COVID infection numbers are falling in 49 out of 50 states, but deaths are nearing 1 million mostly due to Omicron. In spite of Omicron, payrolls are up for most of the nation. Here's the joke of the day, but not a funny joke. "The Republican National Committee Friday censured two GOP lawmakers for opposing Donald Trump and probing the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, an attack the RNC partly framed as "legitimate political discourse" in rebuking the legislators." This is like calling the attack on Pearl Harbor a normal commercial transaction. Or, 9/11 was an ordinary plane accident killing a bunch of innocent tourists as it flew into a building the pilot did not notive. This is as funny as a rubber crutch. At this point, Republicans are beyond saving. The only thing left is the dissolution of the purported Republican Party and the formation of a real fiscally conservative party willing to govern for the benefit of the nation. To do that, the first step is to indict DDT, try him, convict him for crimes committed, and lock him up.

3 February MASA plus 379 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden is caught between a rock and a hard place. He gave a speech in NYC today trying to address the rising gun violence problem without invoking police strong-arm tactics and without calling for defunding the police. The speech was given with the new NYC mayor, Adams, a former police officer. Ultra liberals were disappointed, middle of the road democrats were pleased and Republicans just jumped on it no matter what he might have said. The leader of the Islamic State group blew himself up along with members of his family as American forces raided his Syria hideout. Ouch. The US is playing the game of revealing Russia's plans before they can execute them. Now claiming once again that Russia is planning a fake attack so that they can use it as a pretext for invasion. Meanwhile, Senators say they are on the brink of clinching a deal on Russia sanctions legislation, as they work to reach a final agreement on the text of a bill. In England, BOJO is sinking fast over party-gate. Finally, that blooming egoistic lying idiot is getting caught and perhaps punished. Now we have to curb our own egotistical lying idiot, DDT, and lock him up.

2 February MASA plus 378 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Missed today, not feeling all that well. Mostly feeling sleepy. But still, before crashing I will dream of DDT behind bars in an orange jumpsuit

1 February 2022 MASA plus 377 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Putin is now claiming that those are American troops surrounding Ukraine not Russians and that the US is trying to start a war so that the US and Europe can apply sanctions. of course, I made up the part about American troops, but not the second part about sanctions. Putin is doing his best to blame the US for Russia having its army surrounding Ukraine. It would be stupidly funny if it were not so fraught. it is hard to believe that our debt is now 30 trillion caused mostly by tax cuts from Republicans. Another snowstorm is on its way east. Where will it hit? Kim Jong Un is struggling to walk down the stairs in a North Korean propaganda film. Not sure what this means for the long term. Lots is going on and we will have to wait tosee how it all oplays out. One thing is for sure, we cannot have a repeat of DDT as president again, unless you want a dictatorship, and a bad one at that. DDT needs to be locked up for the good of America.

31 January MASA plus 376 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. We made it through January with no war in Europe. I guess that is a positive. However, it is not game over as Russia and the US exchanged harsh words at the UN. If harsh words could explode New York would have been wiped out. Russia accused the West on Monday of “whipping up tensions” over Ukraine and said the U.S. had brought “pure Nazis” to power in Kyiv. What they mean is anyone opposed to the Russian takeover must be a Nazi. Just as an aside, more snow coming to New York and New England. Florida is becoming the state of  "Do as you are told" with proposals banning abortion, discussions of sexuality, and white racial ‘discomfort’ aiming to establish Florida as the capital of Trumpistan. Keep voting Republican all you independents and centrist Democrats and you will get what you deserve nationwide. There is a straight line from this flurry of reactionary legislative action to DeSantis’s political ambitions. Be careful, or you will get what you vote for. The DDT dictatorship's brown shirt tactics are starting already with the Georgia prosecutor asking the FBI for security help after the DDT rally. Intimidation is the start of the fall of Democracy. Biden has told Qatar that it will be a major non-NATO ally. Not sure exactly what this means with respect to allocating US resources. The new CIVID Omicron variant is now in half of US states. It's time NY and Georgia, indict the orange bum (DDT) and convict and lock him up for crimes committed.

30 January MASA plus 375 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Even Lindsey Graham, the DDT A-kisser in the Senate is against DDT ever pardoning the 6 January failed insurrectionists. To quote old Lindsey, "Oh my Goodness NO". DDT is calling for more violence (calling for "the biggest protests we ever had") if prosecutors manage to indict him and push for a trial. At a Texas rally, DDT all but promised a racially charged civil war if he’s indicted. This is like hearing the promise of a future dictator and deciding to ignore him. He is dangerous to everyone, including his supporters.  More missiles into the ocean from the little dictator in N. Korea at the expense of starving his people. As long as they fall into the ocean, no harm is done. Putin is still banging at the doorstep of Ukraine, enough so that the Ambassador from Ukraine said that if Putin invades, nobody is safe. There is a new Omicron variant that is more infectious than Omicron itself. So far it is at low levels in the US. All indications are that the vaccine will be effective. Now we need a vaccine against DDT that only the courts can provide, Indict, convict, and throw the bum in jail for as long as possible.

29 January MASA plus 374 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Poor Massachuttes, this storm today has knocked out power on a day with extreme cold and snow. Cape Cod was especially hard hit, but have no fear, the rich burned big candles and kept warm. I suspect that the rich just evacuated for warmer climes. More western troops are moving to the border areas with Russia mostly from the UK and the US. There are now Russian Blood supplies close to the Ukraine border. This is an ominous and very unstable situation. Republicans are bitching about Biden's promise to nominate a black woman to the court. It is ironic when they had no trouble backing Barett when DDT promised to nominate a conservative woman. DDT should not lead the country again, says the Republican leader of the National Governors Association. Good for him. He knows an incompetent buffoon when he sees one. The net is closing, but DDT will be in Texas on Saturday for a rally as the House select committee investigating the attack carried out by his supporters against the U.S. Capitol last year closes in on members of his family and inner circle. Keep tightening the vise. T-Mobile will fire corporate employees who aren’t fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by April 2nd. Good for T-Mobile being sane in a dire situation where deaths are rising nationwide. It is time to close for today with my perpetual wish to see DDT enjoy free housing and meals at one of the world's best jails, perhaps Rikers or a more bucolic location in Kansas.

 

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (The Loser)

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the loser)      MASA = Make America Sane 

28 January MASA plus 373 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. A top pentagon general says that the consequences of a Russian invasion of Ukraine would be horrific. Not sure what he means. Of course, Russia says it is not interested in invading Ukraine, the soldiers are just there for some outdoor exercise. You know how it is. Young men watch too much TV and too much time on the internet. Better to enjoy the border area with Ukraine and the warmer weather than Moscow. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on the West not to create panic amid the build-up of Russian troops on his country's borders. Says it is bad for the economy. Blizzard warning for Boston and New York City that could bring 2 feet of snow. The House committee investigating the Capitol attack issued subpoenas to lead participants because of an audacious scheme to send fake Trump slates of electors to Congress. They want to see if the White House was involved. Of course, they were. Biden cannot get a break. On the day he is visiting Pittsburg about improving infrastructure a two-lane bridge collapsed at 7 am. No one was seriously injured. Stephen Hayes quit Fox News over F. Carlson’s conspiratorial rhetoric about the Jan. 6 riots and has landed at NBC News. Interesting. From Bloomberg, "U.S. inflation-adjusted consumer spending fell last month by the most since February, suggesting that Americans tempered their outlays amid the latest Covid-19 wave and the fastest inflation in nearly 40 years." Watch out stock market. As always, we wish DDT the best (jail cell) and succulent dinners (good jail food) after they lock him up for crimes committed. 

27 January MASA plus 372 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I took the day off today. Too tired to write about what is going on in the world. Mostly it was more of the same. Ukraine is boiling along with not much progress. Covid is doing its thing. Biden is getting beat up for the fastest rise (almost 7%) in recent economic history. And getting beat up for not supporting Ukraine enough and for supporting it too much. Of course, we want DDT to be locked up for as long as possible.

26 January MASA plus 371 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer is retiring giving President Biden an opportunity to replace liberal justice with a non-conservative. In principle, there is nothing the Republicans can do to stop the nomination unless Sinema or Manchin decide to be obstinate. Always a possibility with that pair. Biden is hanging tough on Ukraine offering no real concessions. Hold your breath. Advances toward fusion for power are occurring almost daily now. If successful it will make oil and gas drop in value like a rock, but don't hold your breath waiting. Fusion has always been just 20 years away for the past 60 years. A judge has denied bond for one of the Oath Keepers heavily involved in the 6 January failed insurrection. The man that sold the Texas (from England) terrorist a gun has been found and arrested. Keep up the good work. Funny, BOJO (Boris Johnson) is now claiming he was ambushed by a birthday cake and forced into a surprise party that was against the COVID rules. Ambushed by a cake? C'mon! Finally, the Fed has said it will raise interest rates a tiny bit from almost zero and the markets went crazy. I'm not sure if it is machines or people doing the buying and selling that are moving the markets. I suspect it is machines doing the buying and selling. Even though DDT has been quiet, one knows he cannot stay that way for long. Hurry Georgia and NY and put DDT in jail where he so richly belongs.

 

25 January MASA plus 370 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. News today of just what we need to make the start of 2022 perfect. There is a new strain of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID) that is able to avoid detection by the best PCR tests. Not 100% avoiding detection, but enough to be really worrisome for those trying to protect family and friends. So far it is mostly in California, but it will spread. At the same time, more and more misinformation about vaccination is being put out especially by the money-hungry Bannon as part of a dish network program. That program should be banned and taken off the air. Biden has put US forces on alert, but says, and I believe him, that no US forces are moving into Ukraine. It is well known that there are about 200 US forces in Ukraine as training troops. Right now the issue of Ukraine is splitting the NATO alliance with Germany very reluctant to support the US efforts to contain Russia. If we have bad luck with Russia, Germany will pay a high price in the future, looking like the appeasing England just before the start of World War 2. Interesting. A California city, San Jose City, voted Tuesday night to require gun owners to carry liability insurance in what's believed to be the first measure of its kind in the United States. This should be nationwide just like car insurance. The Federal Reserve Bank is expected to announce an interest rate rise very soon. Once this has passed perhaps the stock market will calm down. Right now, stock investors’ nerves are being tested by inflation, omicron, and Russia, and the likelihood of an interest rate increase. One of the biggest causes of inflation is the shortage of chips used by manufacturers of consumer goods, especially automobiles. This is mostly because COVID drove down demand when it started and then demand picked up strongly in 2021 without a corresponding increase in chip manufacturing. There is a move now to have new US chip manufacturing capability to avoid a future repeat. All is quiet on the DDT front as legal clouds gather over his future. A special grand jury is now permitted to investigate DDT's attempted interference in Georgia's election. Hopefully, DDT will be convicted of crimes so obviously committed and be sent to jail where he belongs.

24 January MASA plus 369 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Who says that Biden does not have a temper. White Hosue reporter Peter Doocy frequently asks rude questions snd shouts over other reporters. This time after asking a stupid question, President Joe Biden called Fox News White House reporter Peter Doocy “a stupid son of a bitch”. Whoa. Good for Joe. The US (Biden) has ordered 8500 troops to be on heightened alert as Ukraine invasion fears grow. There is a discussion of moving 50,000 troops to eastern Europe, not Ukraine, as tensions grow. On the home front, a new Department of Homeland Security bulletin warns that Russia could launch a cyberattack against U.S. targets if it believes Washington’s response to its potential invasion of Ukraine threatens its long-term national security. Watch your computer's security. Iran has suggested direct talks with the US and the US has agreed. Hope springs eternal. A House Democrat, Tom Malinowski, asserted Monday that people have called his office claiming to be Fox News viewers (viewers of F. Carlson) and telling him the U.S. should be "siding with Russia" as tensions between Russia and Ukraine intensified. Stocks today were down -3% in the middle of the day and then climbed back to +0.25%. Pension funds and retirees must be going crazy. A judge in Georgia has granted permission to convene a Special Grand Jury to determine if DDT broke laws by pressuring election officials in Georgia to find extra votes for DDT. Now we just have to wait and see what happens. Of course, this fits in with my hope for the orange loser. Convict DDT and family for crimes committed and lock them up.

23 January MASA plus 368 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Mitch McConnell has angrily apologized for his verbal gaffe against black people. He says that he accidentally omitted the word "all". He corrected "Black people"  vote as often as Americans" to Black people" vote as often as all Americans". He clearly was not aware of what he was saying. For an experienced speaker, this is totally unacceptable. Mitch needs to have his head checked. I can accept that he made a verbal mistake, but I still "hate" the man with no moral principles except the naked seeking of power. He and DDT are responsible for a lot of the current problems dividing this nation. Ukraine tensions are rising. The US has ordered embassy families to leave. Biden is again warning Russia of extremely massive consequences. One hopes that Putin takes it seriously. Russia has financial reserves to survive for a short while. This could get really messy. One hopes our European allies back us. Germany seems reluctant and France is wavering. This will be a big thing inside of NATO if they do not back us. From the Guardian: No single week in the year since DDT left the White House has been as dramatic, or for him as potentially catastrophic, as the one just passed. It included a rebuke from the supreme court over documents related to the 6 January insurrection which Trump incited; news that the congressional committee investigating the riot was closing in on Trump’s inner circle; evidence from New York’s attorney general of alleged tax fraud; and, perhaps most damaging of all, a request from a Georgia prosecutor for a grand jury in her investigation of Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election". One hopes this is the case and he winds up losing in court for crimes committed and gets locked up.

22 January MASA plus 367 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Arizona Democratic Party has censured Sen. Sinema after the collapse of the voting-rights bill partially because of her votes. I'm not sure what the censure means in practice. Poor Mich McConnell and his mistake at claiming that blacks were not quite Americans. I'm sure that was not what he meant, but that is what he said. If sounded awful. "Black people vote as much as Americans". I'm sure he meant "other Americans". However, since he is quick to jump on Biden for any minor slip of the tongue, Mitch deserves the hit for this big one. The problem is that Mitch is a well-known racist, so letting him off the hook is impossible. It's the wild west in California with thieves looting freight trains. Even worse, when caught, many are released back into the community. California needs to tighten up its criminal arrest programs. The big question now for DDT is will he throw his kids under the bus to save himself? The NY investigation is implicating his kids as well as DDT himself. So, will he or won't he. Tune n later to find out. TDDT signed papers under penalty of perjury that tripled the size of his 11,000 square foot apartment in order to get a triple-sized loan. That made his triplex, at $327 million, the most expensive in the country. When it came time to cheat the taxman, suddenly, DDT claimed his empire was underwater. He deflated assets. It is more of the same. DDT has been this way all of his life, a sociopath. Time to lock DDT up and perhaps his kids, for crimes committed.

21 January MASA plus 366 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Justice Department made a criminal arrest against a texas man for threatening Georgia election officials and offering $10,000 for the job. I assume this will be the first of many such arrests. Ukraine just simmers along with people in both Russia and Ukraine seemingly less concerned than NATO that there will be an actual invasion. An unpublished draft DDT order told the defense chief to seize swing-state voting machines. If this had been executed if would definitely have been an insurrection led by DDT (the loser). It was part of a cache of documents handed over to the House committee investigating the January 6 violence. The question now is who wrote the plan. Attorney General James has taken action to force DDT, DDT Jr., and Ivanka to comply with the ongoing investigation Into DDT's organization’s financial dealings. Between this and the Georgia Grand Jury, we may be seeing the beginning of the end of DDT. As the Supreme Court considers destroying the right of a woman to control her own body, the annual anti-abortion rally in the nation’s capital sounded more like a victory celebration as speakers expressed a growing sense of optimism. The following shows the sad state of mind of the people. A Virginia mother was charged after threatening to bring loaded guns to Va. school over mask policy. This is insane. Three Canadians have been shot and one has died after a dispute among guests at a hotel resort near Cancún, Mexico. Insane again. Let's all hope that this spring gives relief from COVID and from DDT. Lock the loser (DDT) up as soon as possible before he does more damage.

20 January MASA plus 365 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Sorry for the previous miscount on the days. Today is 1 year into the Biden administration. I am sitting here listening to Adam Schiff talk about the current state of the Democratic party and the state of the nation as we go into the 2022 elections. Right now Schiff is talking about the idea that not going after DDT makes the President seem to be above the law, a very dangerous situation that the founders of the US certainly would not have accepted. Basically, Schiff is telling those who favor our democracy. If you have the means, perhaps you might want to contribute to the effort to maintain majorities in both the House and Senate. I just did (https://www.forcemultiplierus.org/). Republicans have a very tight bogus message about Socialism, Critical Race Theory, and not supporting the police. While these are bogus they do resonate with certain sections of the population. We need to turn out the vote in 2022 and get rid of as many republicans as possible. Ukraine is looking more fraught with every passing day. US arms are being sent to Ukraine, transferred from the Baltic States. These are basically tank-killing missiles and heavy machine guns. Biden is going to break up his huge Build Back Better package into smaller popular pieces. Let's see how this goes. Georgia is empowering a special grand jury to investigate DDT's criminal meddling in the Georgia election. It is time for both NY and Georgia and the Justice Department to convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up 

19 January MASA plus 359 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I wrote a blog on the 19th but it did not save. Hopefully, the 20th will save. It ended as always with an appeal to the justice system to lock DDT up and save America.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the loser)

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump     MASA = Make America Sane Again

18 January: MASA plus 358 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. 3 of the DDT stooges have been newly subpoenaed by the committee investigating the 6 January attempted insurrection, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis. These 3 stooges should have knowledge of the actions of DDT in this failed mess. Of course, they will refuse to testify and criminal contempt charges will have to be filed with the Justice Department. Anthony Blinken is expected to meet with senior Russian negotiators as Ukraine tensions with Russia increase. Russia has sent more tanks and troops. It is getting increasingly more difficult for Putin to back down. It is interesting, in the east, COVID rates are declining in northeastern cities, while in the west and mid-west they are seeing huge increases. Democrats are looking at a plan B for voting rights namely by reinstating the old filibuster rules where you had to stand and speak. It might take a few weeks, but then the Democrats could pass the legislation with a simple majority vote. Getting voting rights is probably one of the most important things the Senate could do. Time to call it quits for tonight and wait for tomorrow to see if Putin starts a war (or the day after) and if the Democrats can pull off the old filibuster rules. In the meantime, DDT still lurks zombie-like waiting to feed on the blood of our democracy. We need to exorcise him and send him back to hell. Translation: convict him and send DDT to jail.

17 January: MASA plus 357 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  DDT gave another rally today. The press covered it as bombast and lies with the biggest headline, his loyal fans had to wait more than 2 hours to leave. Poor babies. Some felt like prisoners saying they felt their rights were being taken away. Anne Colter, the3 famous non-stop mouthpiece for DDT, has said that DDT IS DONE FOR. For once we agree. Mitch McConnell has been branded a hypocrite for posting a tribute to Martin Luther King Jr while leading Republican efforts to obstruct new voting-rights legislation. Nothing new there, old MC has been a hypocrite all his political life. Rep Matt Gaetz's ex-girlfriend has been granted immunity in a sex trafficking case. This could get interesting if people other than Gaetz are involved. Virginia school systems plan to ignore new Gov Younkin's repeal of the mask mandate. Younkin says he will retaliate. Uh Oh, Israel has found that a 4th vaccine shot is ineffective against Omicron. As always DDT lurks as a potential disaster leading a Republican party headed by snakes. Let's at least cut off the biggest head of the snake party and put DDT in jail for crimes committed.

16 January: MASA plus 356 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Sigh. The US surgeon general is saying that the worst is yet to come from the Omicron virus, " the next few weeks will be tough." DDT gave a speech during a rally in Arizona. It basically was just a rehash of his previous grievances at the word and the 2020 election, It basically bombed. DDT is trashing Ron DeSantis in private as an ingrate with a "dull personality" and no realistic chance of beating him in a potential 2024 showdown. This is standard DDT, but this time it will not fly. Even the press is tired of his BS, North Korea is at it again firing missiles into the sea. Kim's investment in missiles and nuclear weapons is bankrupting the country. Of more worry at the moment is Russia's buildup of military forces against Ukraine and the unfillable demands Putin is making against NATO. This is genuinely scary. According to Oxfam, the wealth of the world's 10 richest men doubled during the pandemic. It is just an indication that things are out of whack in our system. DDT may be boring now in that he needs new lines to terrorize the press to get attention, but I would not count him out. I still want him convicted of cries committed and locked up.

15 January: MASA plus 355 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Virginia is leading the way for what will happen with Republican leadership. Younkin has just become governor of Virginia today and has immediately removed the mack mandate for schools and COVID vaccinations for State workers. It will not take long before he is named governor-death. Texas has already started to kick US citizens off the voter rolls under the new Texas voting law. Expect lawsuits. DDT is getting set to hold a massive covid party in Arizona to rehash his election loss and bash anyone that disagrees with him. Republicans are afraid if DDT continues this course, he will dissuade voters from the Republican party. One hopes they are right. We need Republicans out of office at all levels until they become responsible at governing the nation, their state, or locality. Novak Djokovic returns to the court in Australia but without his balls (tennis balls of course). More dead in Kazakhstan (only 225). Hundreds of migrants are setting off for the US border from Honduras to cause major problems later this year. Other than the, it's been a quiet Saturday so far.  But one thing still remains important. Lock DDT up for crimes committed and save America.

14 January: MASA plus 354 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Clearly, I have made a mistake somewhere, January 20 should be 365 days, not 360. Oh well. Tracking that error down could be time-consuming, DDT's minions in Arizona have submitted fake election documents to the national archives. This is good since their idiocy will not be documented for all time. The voting rights bill vote on the Senate floor looms and will probably fizzle because of Republican resistance to fair voting and the unwillingness of two Democratic Senators to go along with their party and vote for badly needed national standards. OK, the world is coming to an end. Theives have looted trains and delivery trucks carrying packages More GOP lawmakers who voted to impeach DDT are choosing not to run in this atmosphere of violent personal attacks. I do not blame them, but feel sorry for the rest of us who will live with the consequences of a corrupt party in power. The big news outside of all the domestic posturing is the likelihood of Putin starting a real war in Ukraine. This could easily spin out of control. Russia seems to be setting up a false flag operation to pretend that Russian troops are being attacked. Not happy with the way things are unfolding. I still think the snake needs its head cut off. Now that the Justice Department is going after some of the leaders for insurrection it is time to neutralize the lying snake, DDT, and lock him up.

13 January: MASA plus 353 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Supremes have shown they can be as stupid as DDT. No surprise there given the makeup of the DDT-appointed members. By now you should know that they blocked Biden's workplace vaccine or testing mandate. They did allow federally funded hospitals to institute a mandate. Joe, the path is clear. Put the mandate in place for federally funded industries. No mandate observance, no federal contracts. It is not as good as the more general mandate, but it would cover a lot of workers. Finally, Oath Keepers leader and 10 others were charged with seditious conspiracy for January 6 attack on Capitol. Now we need a trial and some serious jail time. Biden said he has doubts about the future of the voting rights bill after Sinema once again states her opposition. Biden says he will continue to fight for voting rights. A headline for a science site says, "Scientists Have Detected a Faint Hint of The Background Hum of The Universe". This is in spite of all the static emitted by DDT and his butt kissers like little Teddy (Cruz). For scientists, this is an amazing step toward understanding the fabric of the universe. For the rest of us, we are bombarded by bombast drowning out the beauty of the Earth. DDT has slammed politicians who won’t say they got booster shots. DDT has become increasingly vocal in calling out those who have questioned the vaccines’ efficacy and safety even if it means angering a significant fraction of his idiot supporters. The biggest news is the strong likelihood that Republican candidates will have to sign a pledge not to participate in non-partisan debates that are not approved by the national Republican committee. They apparently want the moderator to be F. Carlson (yeah, I know it is not with an F, but rest assured it rhymes). Just for the record, 2021 was the 6th warmest year on record. To stop the Republican party from making us walk off the edge of a cliff with a siren's song of lies and personal attacks, we need to cut off the head of the snake (DDT) and lock him up.

12 January: MASA plus 352 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Schumer finds a loophole. That's good. Normally, he cannot find his left foot. He's going to use the loophole to open debate on a voting rights bill. McConnell has promised to tie up the Senate in procedural squabbles. It's loophole vs squabble. The loophole: the House would amend an unrelated bill about Nasa to include provisions from two stalled voting reform bills: the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. After passing that bill, which they are calling a “shell” bill, the Democrats would swiftly send it to the Senate, where Democrats could start debate on it with a simple majority. OK. The squabble: The bill gets it to the Senate floor after which McConnell has promised it will die the death of a thousand cuts and bring the Senate to its knees. Are you having fun yet? What a shocker. A federal lawsuit is accusing 16 elite universities of fixing prices and courting wealthy families. Finally, a gotcha! In case you have not noticed you one-percenters, inflation is roaring along at 7%. It does not mean much to you guys, since your basic living costs are pocket change, but to normal people, 7% really hurts. Rent and food go up as does the cost of everything you might want or need. Pretty soon you have to choose between feeding your family or paying for essentials (rent, health, clothing, etc.). The problem is this is not driven by normal economic mismanagement, but by COVID and its effect on the supply chain and finding workers. The fix will not be easy or pretty. Ronald Reagan stalled the economy to bring inflation under control many years ago and the short-term results were devastating. It worked, but the price was high. NATO and Russia talks so far have yielded little. The troops are still at the Ukraine border and Putin's demands are still impossible for the west. DDT was on NPR and walked out of an interview when the questions got too much for him. The answers he did give were just pure unadulterated BS. It's time, America, to bring DDT to his knees and lock him up for crimes committed.

11 January: MASA plus 351 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. 11 January, how time does fly. The next thing you know is that Biden will have been president for 1 full year. He has accomplished a lot, but not as much as he wanted to accomplish. Biden is getting mad at this point and wanting to do away with the Senate rules obstructing his agenda so that they can pass the voting rights bill. This bill is the last thing that Republicans want since it would spell the end of minority rule. If it does not pass, and the voting limitations that Republicans have put in place at the local level stand, you will have a repressive minority rule government by the rich and for the rich. We've seen this show in other countries and the outcome is not pretty. Why poor people would vote Republican boggles my mind, since the benefits of their work do not flow back to them.  OMG. 1.5 million new COVID cases today, some of them breakthrough cases, and a lot are among the unwashed (unvaccinated). For the unwashed, it is potentially a death sentence. Rand Paul, the baldfaced liar, and provocateur attempted to lie about Fauci again and Fauci ripped back for distorting everything. Rand Paul is using the pandemic and Dr. Fauci to raise money for political campaigning, going so far as to picture Fauci on his website as fire Dr. Fauci contribute $5, $10, and so on. Old Randy needs to be exorcised from the Senate. One of little Teddy Cruz's former aides said that “What he did on Jan. 6th himself last year and what he said on Carlson’s show last week goes far beyond pandering. Cruz’s humiliation is hardly the point. His radicalization is far more frightening.” I agree. Bending so low that he has to look up to kiss DDT's butt is humiliating, Little Teddy's views are the dangerous views of DDT. It is time to throw DDT to the "wolves" and lock him up before he leads his sheep over the cliff.

10 January: MASA plus 350 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today was the first pig to a human heart transplant. The person who received the genetically engineered pig heart would certainly die without the attempt. These are specially bred pigs with human characteristics in their genes. This means that there are certain human morally bankrupt look-alikes that would not qualify, and you know of at least one example (hint DDT). DDT is now claiming absolute immunity, not from COVID, but from the laws of the land. He essentially said, "laws are for little people". Just look at my gut and you can see that I am not one of the little people. Teddy (Cruz) has put in a bill to create sanctions for the Russian Nord-Strream2 pipeline. While I agree with little Teddy that Putin needs to be punished, especially if he invades Ukraine, this pipeline is partially a European problem. Any sanctions must be coordinated with our allies who will bear the brunt of any sanction on gas flow into Europe. The Democrats in Congress are racing to quash Teddy's latest misadventure. As usual, California is leading the country with incentives for electric car production and expanded healthcare. Healthcare in the United States is a mess. There is no coordinated record-keeping, drug prices are out of control compared to the rest of the world, surgery is a financial risk even if you have insurance (for example, the hospital can sneak an anesthesiologist into your surgery that is not in your insurance network), and Medicare and Medicaid are unable to negotiate prices. Attempts to reform the system are met with fierce lobbying and stubborn resistance to reform, especially, but not exclisively, from Republicans. As usual, we need to save American democracy by getting rid of Republicans at the ballot box and put DDT in jail.

9 January: MASA plus 349 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT (the loser) has furthered another fake conspiracy theory about the 6 January riot by promoting the claim that federal agents were behind the attack. Yes, the videos clearly show the FBI uniforms including the horned helmet of the FBI chief. What an idiot or craven traitor, take your pick. According to a headline in the Guardian, "The US has told Vladimir Putin to choose between dialogue and confrontation on the eve of a critical week of diplomacy over Ukraine as Russian troops remain massed along its borders." If taken at its face value, this is a dire prelude to talks." "If Russia insists that Nato cannot expand ever again, we will know that Moscow is preparing for war in Ukraine since this is a red line for the west.” Not good, not good at all. Uh Oh, AOC has COVID. Much as she is too far left for me,  I wish her a speedy recovery. Even with all the infections going around and swamped hospitals, GOP governors are saying that large businesses should not conform to the "oppressive" mask mandate. Stupidity runs deep in Republican circles along with fear of DDT. Given the way the Republicans have manipulated the voting rules in many states, you hypocritical conservatives may get the autocratic government you deserve. The only problem is that you will drag the rest of us down with you. The only cure is to cut the head off of the snake. Put that snake, DDT (the loser) in jail for crimes committed before his presidency and on 6 January.

8 January: MASA plus 348 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. At least it appears that there will be negotiations with Russia and not an immediate war over Ukraine. According to Newsweek, DDT  spent the 6 January anniversary watching cable news and fuming. He is also fuming because a Republican "enemy" Senator John Thune announced that he will be running again in spite of DDT threats to attack him in the primary. There were alleged reports of steam literally coming out of his ears. This is consistent with what is known about the contents of his head, just hot damp air. Watch out Bircoiners as Bitcoin slides again to near $40,000. The whole thing is crazy and unstable. Just as crazy are the prices of new and used cars that are rising rapidly partly because of supply chain issues and partly because of pent-up demand. The James Webb telescope fully deployed all its mirrors and sunshade with the last bit completed today. The first look at observations i snot for 6 months although I will be that there will be preliminary observations well before then. COVID infections are rising at a rapid rate especially among young children that are not eligible for the vaccines. This is unfortunates since there now is a CDC study that suggests that COVID may significantly increase the likelihood of diabetes. Ok you unemployed, follow Japan's lead and rent yourself out as a "do-Nothing Man or Woman" with answering chit-chat as your most strenuous activity. You might have to drink coffee or eat some cake, but that is it. Shoji Morimoto makes a living in Japan renting himself out as "Do Nothing Rent-a-Man." DDT may be fuming at the insults hurled at him by Biden, but he is still dangerous since he seems to have almost the entire Rep[ublican Party in his thrall. This will not stop until he is convicted for his heinous behavior and locked up.

7 January: MASA plus 347 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The killers of the jogger, Amaud Abery, have gotten life in prison without parole.  What they did was outrageous and the sentence was appropriate for two vigilantes making life or death decisions on no information but their prejudice. Biden is blasting the Republicans for talking down the economy when it is pretty good considering COVID. He (Biden) needs to keep pummeling the Republicans until some sense is beaten into their senseless heads. Fox News got Ted Cruz on the show and proceeded to humiliate Cruz for his statements. Carlson invited Senator Ted Cruz on the program, who on Wednesday had accurately described 6 January as “a violent terrorist attack”. Carlson was appalled at this language and demanded that Cruz explain himself. Cruz got down on his knees and begged forgiveness.  None was given. Then the word of DDT dumped on Ted Cruz After He Grovels to Tucker. Way to go, Ted, you show 'em, just make sure your pants have knee patches sewn on for groveling. It looks like Bed Bath and Beyond is living up to its name and going into the great Beyond by closing still more stores. Meanwhile, DDT is fuming at Biden for calling him out. It's about time. Now NY, figure out how to lock up this loser.

6 January: MASA plus 346 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today is the anniversary of another day of infamy. Not as bad as Pearl Harbor only because the insurrection failed. If it had not, DDT would have accomplished what the Imperial Japanese could not, namely toppling the government. What is really sad is how many Republicans in power are still bleating DDT's (the loser) claims of a stolen election. Biden gave a speech today really going after the slimeball, DDT (the loser), for his provoking the attempted insurrection. It was one of the strongest speeches given by Bidenb in a long time. It is time to destroy the Republican party at the ballot box and in the courts where criminal activity has occurred. Biden blamed DDT's (the loser) "web of lies and outright provocation for the US Capital attack. Even Dick Cheney, normally an enemy of reason and cooperation expressed deep disappointment with GOP leadership.  One of the groups of supporters of the loser DDT is Christian conservatives (evangelicals) worshipping the antichrist DDT so as to get more money for their programs. They have the idea of making America a conservative Christian nation to the exclusion of all others. Anything for money. They are after a big part of the money used for public education.  Even Canada is crazy. A large group of Canadians was partying on a plane returning to Canada without masks or distancing. The airlines have stranded them from flying the rest of the way home. The movie clip of their party is appalling. Equally appalling are DDT's (the loser) comments about Biden's speech. We are back to calling Biden a failure when he has been a success, and calling his description baseless when you can see the desecration with your own eyes. It is time to end DDT's (the loser) free ride and give him the justice he deserves. Lock the loser DDT up as soon as possible.

5 January: MASA plus 345 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. This evening I was reading (VOX Ian Millhiser) about two cases to be decided by the Supreme Court. Both involve health issues relative to the COVID pandemic. The first is a Biden administration requirement that health care workers are vaccinated and the second if about having employees of companies employing more than 100 people be vaccinated or tested. These may be hot button issues of the moment, but they conceal a much deeper issue. The issue is the ability of federal agencies to issue policy directives based on congressional legislation that delegates the details to the agency experts. The outcome of the court cases does not just threaten public health, it threatens democracy itself. Lawyers arguing the cases couch their arguments in arcane legal doctrines, with names like the “Major Questions Doctrine” or “Nondelegation”. The question boils down to the idea that specific federal agencies should be able to protect the lives of workers and their clients without specific rules written by non-experts in congress. Previous cases before the courts have affirmed the rights of agencies to issue policies based on congressional law.  The conservative Federalist Society is obsessed with proposals to strip federal agencies of their ability to regulate championed by conservative, then-lower court judges like Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. The thrust of previous decisions like Chevron and Mistretta is that, when judges are unsure how to resolve a difficult legal question, they should err on the side of the elected branches, since judges are far from experts on medical, environmental, and engineering problems. This is not democracy. It is a decision to replace the judgment of expert federal agencies to make life-and-death decisions, answerable to an elected official, the President, with the views of a few unelected Supreme Court Justices. If Gorsuch and Kavanaugh have their way it should reduce the court to irrelevancy and should be ignored. DOJ's Garland gave a speech today, the essence of which is that the DOJ will pursue cases that follow the facts wherever they lead and that no person has immunity. I hope he follows his own advice with measured speed. DDT has postponed his 6 January press conference (out of fear of questions) and replaced it with a 15 January massive super-spreader event where he can grouse about how the election was stolen even without facts. Yes, facts, why do we need them? Anymore than why do we need DDT free and on the loose? Lock DDT up as soon as is possible and save American democracy.

4 January: MASA plus 344 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. In th eUS at least Omicron has almost totally displaced Delta with 95% of the reported cases Omicron. This is potentially good news because of the lower mortality rate and diminished long-term effects. It may be milder than Delta but is still dangerous. The really big news today is that the sun shield on the James Webb telescope has unfurled correctly. Now for "assembling" the mirrors. If all goes well, this is an amazing engineering and science feat. Good news, DDT has canceled the 6 January press conference. This is not out of the goodness of his heart, but out of fear of getting roasted if he went through with the press conference. McConnell is bleating that Schumer is "hellbent" on trying to break the Senate. What McConnell is worried about is the passage of a voting rights bill that will somewhat prevent a minority party from seizing power. The news reports that 4.5 million workers left their jobs in November, a good number in retirement, but even more just simply quit. Many of those already has better jobs lined up. However, the political picture of this quitting surge is bad for Biden. Another bit of good news, five of the world's nuclear powers have pledged not to attempt nuclear war. That still leaves India,  Pakistan, North Korea, and Israel out of the agreement. Three of those 4 are serious possibilities for nuclear war. If we get DDT back in power perhaps we can increase the probability of nuclear war as we cease to be a democracy. The best bet for 2022 is to convict DDT of the many crimes he has committed and lock him up.

3 January: MASA plus 343 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Finally, some action is seen. According to the AP, "The New York attorney general’s office  has subpoenaed DDT and his two eldest children, Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr., demanding their testimony in an investigation into the family’s business practices." Of course, DDT has a lawsuit pending for a while to prevent the case from being heard. The last time he tried to block a case, DDT failed. DDT and failure seem to go together. I will not hold my breath waiting for the depositions to take place but at least the sense of forward motion is there. Even Iran is chiming in wanting to put DDT on trial because of his ordering the killing of Soleimani, Iran's chief instigator of killing Americans in Iraq and purveyor of war in the middle east. I certainly am no fan of DDT, but this pushes cynicism way too far. Hospitalizations are rising at a very alarming rate, both among the civilian population and hospital staff. Former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes has been convicted of fraud for misleading investors about the progress of her company's ability to analyze small blood samples. Senator Schumer has announced a plan to change filibuster rules in order to advance the voting rights bill.  I agree with getting the voting rights bill through congress. Let's see if Schumer can pull it off. On this cold wintry evening, it's time to end listing the woes of the day. Just one more woe. Let's put the woebegone DDT (the loser) in jail where he can enjoy all the privileges he deserves.

 

2 January: MASA plus 342 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Elizabeth Cheney has got it right. Republicans must choose between DDT and the truth. Cheney says that DDT went to war with the rule of law upon which this country is founded. Even Ivanka, not the sharpest tack in the box, asked DDT to intervene and stop the 6 January insurrection riot.  Twitter finally did something right. Twitter permanently blocked Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene's account as racist and purveying COVID misinformation. DDT's plan to hold a news conference on the Capitol riot anniversary shows he is getting 'terrible' advice, ex-aide says according to Yahoo news. DDT is likely to use the press conference to push election fraud conspiracies, reiterating the lies that the election was stolen, saying that those who are being tried for the insurrection are political prisoners," the former aide said. TESLA delivered almost 1 million vehicles (936,172) in 2021. When combined with GM, Ford, and TESLA in 2022, it should make quite a few electric vehicles on the road. Now, the charging station infrastructure has to catch up. Amazing. The station in Antarctica has been hit with COVID. At least it is summer down there so people can be evacuated. Unfortunately, it is winter here with DDT and COVID on the loose. For COVID, there are precautions we can take, but with DDT (the loser) he is a menace that can be cured by locking him up in 2022.

MASA = Make America Sane Again

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump (the loser)

1 January 2022: MASA plus 342 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The news today is mostly ordinary even though it includes disasters such as the massive grass fire in Colorado with 1000 homes destroyed and 3 people missing. The fire was only stopped by a massive snowfall. There are still a huge number of flight cancellations (8000) and a lot of people stuck at airports. Einstein's theory of General Relativity has been proven right again by a series of experiments. Prince Andrew is still the subject of a lawsuit associating him with Epstein and underage girls. And the DC area is expected to have a heavy snowstorm that just might temporarily tamp down the Republican lies. Of course, DDT (the loser), and totally tone-deaf, is planning a political rally n the anniversary of 6 January touting the false claims of a stolen election. But that is 5 days from now and not part of today's ordinariness. Outside of the US, it is a bit messier. Israel responded to rocket fire into Israel with airstrikes on Gaza. There were riots in Holland protesting measures to combat COVID. As usual, I am hoping that 2022 is the year of getting rid of DDT by locking him up for crimes committed.

31 December: MASA plus 341 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's New Year's Eve, the last day of 2021. It's been a strange year with so many of us now working from home. The passage of time has blurred with weekends and holidays blending into each other. Even workdays feel different because of the possibility to do things in the middle of the day and catch up in the evening. Productivity is still there but I do miss talking to my colleagues about ongoing projects at times other than formal meetings. Visiting with the family has been mostly curtailed except for elaborate planning and testing. Let's hope that 2022 is better for everyone. Have a Happy New Year.  Of course, I still want 2022 to be the year that DDT gets locked up, which will be better for America.

30 December: MASA plus 340 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. One more day in 2021. Tonight the news is all about firers and those the might be dying out. Colorado has the first kind where super dry weather and winds have combined to produce extensive fires with hundreds of homes destroyed so far. It's a disaster. The second kind is between the US and Russia where an ongoing periodic meeting between Putin and Biden may be calming things down. If so, it is welcome news on the next to the last day of 2021. The US set a new record today. No, not in a sporting event, but in a COVID event. The one-day total of cases yesterday was 488,000.  Will today's be even higher?  Tune in tomorrow. California has had considerable precipitation, but not enough to make much of a dent in the long-running drought. This is funny, at least to me. Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is threatening to “dish all the dirt” on DDT to get back at the ex-president over his endorsement of the COVID-19 vaccine.  See even DDT the loser can't do anything right (right-wing, that is). The COVID vaccination job loss program is in full swing, at least in the military. Two hundred marines just were let go. Not a pretty picture, but it gets rid of the stupid ones. If you are traveling by air this New Year's Eve, good luck with sleeping at the airport. Such comfy chairs. DDT is out there somewhere being investigated for this and that. I do not care which crime they get him for as long as he is eligible for free housing and free bars. Lock DDT up, the sooner the better.

29 December: MASA plus 339 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's getting close to the end of this crummy COVID-ridden year. Those of us still alive have made it almost to the end. Of course, there is no indication that 2022 will be any better. One can hope. One good thing is that the court nailed Ghislaine Maxwell for crimes against humans, particularly young female humans trafficed to a monster. I hope she rots. COVID cases are soaring to the highest level ever with no end in sight. My advice is to go into personal lockdown except for essentials. Try not to become a statistic.  DDT is catching it from friends over his stance on taking the vaccine and a booster. It shows what kind of idiots are supporting his crazy machinations to take over the country. The indictment of the Proud Boys over the 6 January insurrection attempt stands, according to the court. Now for a trial and verdict if convicted. A Carnival cruise ship just docked in Mexico with 69 infected people aboard. Mexico will not let them disembark. This will be interesting but unfortunate to watch how the disease progresses in a captive group. As always this blog ends with the exhortation to lock up the one person responsible for a lot of discord we are seeing today. DDT did not start this problem but he certainly unleashed it to a degree not seen before. The cure? Lock DDT up for crimes committed and for attempted murder (of democracy).

28 December: MASA plus 338 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Tucker Carlson is his usual outrageous self with a guest pushing anti-woman and homophobic garbage. It is too bad that the owners of FOX let F Carlson continue. I guess the ca-ching of dollars is too hard to resist. If Biden's medical; team advises it, he will institute domestic vaccine requirements for travel. He is also turning to the states, providing support but letting the governors set policy. Of course, now some Republicans are complaining about this new state-run policy. The real reason for the complaint is that it takes away a republican talking point. Hospitalization rates are rising rapidly, especially in places like New York City. Record case numbers are occurring in the US and in Europe. Also, cruise ships are proving deadly for catching COVID, yet people are still signing up. Why would you play Russian roulette with COVID?  More shootings occurred today as it does every day. It boggles the mind why nothing is ever done about the ever-present pandemic of gun violence. It is time to disrupt the Republican party before it destroys democracy. Plus the leader of the craziness, DDT, needs to be locked up.

27 December: MASA plus 337 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is getting close to 1 year in office. Biden has done quite a bit in spite of Republican intransigence to anything he proposes. He still has to do a lot more in the coming year, especially before the November elections. NYC is going on full vaccine requirements for employment starting today. This will be interesting to see how the holdouts handle losing job opportunities. There is not much we can do about Omicron except wait it out while wearing masks and being vaccinated. The James Webb telescope has completed unfurling the solar panels and communication antennas. A small first step in deployment. Weatherwise, snow has blasted California and has frozen the Pacific northwest in conditions that are highly unusual. The Iran nuclear talks have resumed. One can always hope. Russia is still sitting there with massed troops on the Ukraine border. It looks like 2022 will start with a host of very real problems. Let's eliminate one of them and lock DDT up for crimes committed.

26 December: MASA plus 336 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. T'was the day after Christmas and all was quiet, not even a mouse to cause a riot. DDT a compliment did seize, From President Biden if you please. Republican plotting is dire, as if the presidency was theirs to acquire. By hook or by crook we will steal, while making sure  the Democrats cannot squeal. It will be government by our minority, that is our certain 2022 priority. In the meantime, find old DDT, and lock him up for all eternity.

25 December: MASA plus 335 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today is a sort of day off. There are a few things that are of importance. One is the extraordinarily high temperatures in the south nd southwest, almost like summer plus the threat of heavy snow in parts of the west. Crazy weather. The other item is Putin "mulling" over his response to the western nations not jumping to adopt his ultimatum. It is dangerous and reminds me of Hitler just before he invaded Poland after issuing ultimatums. Only this time it is extra scary because of nuclear weapons. For Putin, the national threat is fake. No one is threatening Russia, not even in the slightest. This is all Putin and his cronies playing some dangerous game to satisfy egos at reestablishing the Soviet Union empire. That's it for today. In the US, we still have the clear and present danger of DDT running for president again with the threat of violence if he loses and the loss of democratic institutions if he wins. Let's make a New Years' resolution to lock DDT up in 2022 for crimes committed.

24 December: MASA plus 334 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT is catching it from his rabid (and I mean mad dog) followers for having both gotten the double does vaccination and a booster. They are now accusing DDT of being a fraud, which is accurate. The unvaccinated were also turned away from the DDT grill, much to their fury at DDT. More shootings, this time in a mall in Oakbridge Illinois. We desperately need some form of gun control. It is clear now that the parents of the Oxford shooting knew in advance that their son was a serious threat and chose to do nothing about it. People must be hopping mad as their flights for Christmas get canceled left and right. Hopefully, they get stranded near home and not halfway or all the way across the country. Hospital workers are overwhelmed as COVID patients flood the emergency rooms. The workload is incredible and the thanks minimal. These are heroes and should be accorded honors as such. The James Webb telescope is about to be launched after a cost of over 10 billion dollars. This is a massive gamble that it will get to its orbit point a million miles from earth and unfurl everything flawlessly. Unlike Hubble, no repairs in flight are possible. If successful, it will open our knowledge of the universe by an astounding amount.  If you have not read the Atlantic article on th e6 January insurrection and the strong possibility of major violence in the next presidential election, I strongly urge you to do so. This is a fundamental threat to our democracy started by DDT and not supported by the Republican party. Not even Mitt Romney has the courage to stand against the Republican mob and Democrats seem to be complacent as to the severity of the threat. Even locking up DDT, which I wholeheartedly support, may not be sufficient to stop the assault on democracy (read voting rights). Still, lock DDT up for crimes already committed.

23 December: MASA plus 333 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Magic number 333 days. Biden has accomplished a lot in spite of McConnell and Republicans standing in the way of almost everything as a bloc. It is sad to see the Republicans not willing to be part of the governing of this nation for the benefit of the voters. Let them in poser again, and watch the rich benefit even more than now. New Year's Eve at Times Square will be a pale shadow of itself thanks to the rapidly spreading Omicron. It is a sad but prudent action for NYC to take. DDT is back asking the Supreme Court to block the release of the 6 January records. Old DDT knows there is incriminating evidence of obstruction of Justice in those records. Let's hope the Supreme Court recognizes that DDT is not a king or even a president. Those records should be made public. More shootings, this time in Burlington Vermont with only 1 dead. North Hollywood has 2 dead also. Its horrible to say, but some of those pro-gun advocates need to have a family member shot in order to change their minds about sensible gun control. There was a huge industrial explosion in Texas at an Exxon factory caused by naphtha but no one was killed. Another Capital rioter has pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate with authorities. This is like going after a Mafia chief, get the underlings, and slowly close in on the boss. Putin is claiming, falsely, that "It is not us who threaten anyone" as a pretext for starting a war. It's dangerous. The EU has launched legal action against Poland for ignoring the bloc’s law and undermining judicial independence. Let's hope the EU is equally up to standing against Russia. Absent the start of war, it is pretty quiet. To keep it that way, we need to convict DDT for crimes committed and attempted destruction of democracy and then lock him up.

22 December: MASA plus 332 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The news from yesterday and today contains some ominous doings by Russia's Putin. For whatever reason, Putin seems to be angling for war, and not just a local war in Ukraine. He is playing the "insane" card to get what he wants. A bet he is placing that the west will capitulate to his demands in the face of nuclear war. What he wants is for the US and the EU to withdraw from the border states to Russia, Hungry, Poland, and all the former Soviet states along with Ukraine or face all-out war. His bet is that the west will not risk the death and destruction of all-out war and that this is his chance to restore the former expanse of the Soviet Union. A very dangerous and scary game. He has even threatened to install nuclear weapons again in Cuba and also Venezuela. On a lesser note, the Supreme Court is sticking its nose into Biden's mandate for big business requiring vaccines or testing for employees. This is a case where they should stay out. The 6 January committee is not seeking testimony from congressman Rep Jim Jordan. They want all of his texts with DDT related to 6 January. Omicron is spreading wildly. especially among students and among idiot party goers. Biden is resisting shutdowns as the answer, instead, he is pushing vaccines, boosters, and mask-wearing. Biden praised DDT for getting both vaccinated and a booster and for encouraging his followers to do the same. DDT responded by appreciating Biden's praise. An article in Atlantic magazine is making the case for the likelihood of civil war with well-armed Republicans in the event that DDT runs and loses again. This sounds impossible, but there are enough Republicans out there that falsely think the 2020 election was rigged to make the possibility all too real. Let's start cutting this off by convicting DDT for crimes committed and locking him up.

21 December: MASA plus 331 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Believe it or not. I write a long piece yesterday and never saved it. Of course, the end had the usual advice. Lock DDT up

20 December: MASA plus 330 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. You know it's evil when McConnell congratulates you for doing something. In this case, McConnell congratulated Manchin for gumming up the works for the Democrat plan for family aid, climate control funding, prescription drug cost control, and a host of other much-needed social programs. West Virginia, one of the most dependent states on Federal help also will lose the most from Manchin's spineless decision. Omicron is now sweeping the country and clogging hospital systems, If you get sick, you may be just out of luck and may not be able to get life-saving medical attention. The advice right now is not to travel and to avoid all parties and even family get-togethers where there is any chance of being infected. The advice is to stay home except for necessities. Omicron is now responsible for 73% of new infections nationwide. It looks like former Texas Governor and Energy Secretary was up to his eyeballs in the conspiracy to invalidate the 2020 election. Not smart Rick. Newsweek is reporting a possible violent clash from armed Republicans wanting to seize power if DDT loses in the 2024 Presidential elections. This is civil war if it were to occur. Small newspapers in the rural, red-state areas that are the core of the Republican party's rank and file are giving voice to a simple picture: Politics are dead; it's time to fight. "Wake up America!" reads a September opinion piece excoriating Democrats in The Gaston Gazette, based in Gastonia, N.C. Other small-town Republican newspapers are sounding similar themes. Republicans have armed themselves in alarming numbers. The real question is would the US army protect the nation or would it too fall for factionalism pervading the US? A partial cure for this is to convict DDT as the criminal he is and lock him up for a long time. 

19 December: MASA plus 329 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The bad news is in, Joe Manchin, a DINO, has flatly rejected Biden's Build-Back Better plan dooming the legislation. Other than self-interest in his family's business, it is hard to fathom his inability to reach a compromise. It is not certain what portions can be done by the president alone. Manchin has put his own political career ahead of the nation. Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker have both come down with COVID. I wish them both a speedy recovery. From the Guardian, "Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republicans on the House committee investigating the deadly 6 January Capitol attack incited by Donald Trump, said on Sunday he was not “yet” ready to declare the former president guilty of a crime – but that the panel was investigating the likelihood that he is." It is interesting that a criminal charge is even being thought of with regard to DDT's behavior after the 2020 election. COVID lockdowns in Europe are becoming a widespread reality, Can it be long before we are in the same boat? The US is always behind Europe in the arrival of really cold weather that usually triggers viral transmission. The upcoming Christmas holiday get-togethers will not help.  A Royal Caribbean cruise has docked in Florida with almost 50 people infected with COVID. Of all activities, a cruise is one of the most ridiculous choices one could make with respect to catching COVID.  NYC has broken all records on COVID with the Omicron surge. It is looking like isolation is the only safe solution for those who are older or immune-compromised. If you have not had your booster, get it now as it appears that just 2 shots do not offer protection while 3 shots do. Maryland Governor Larry Hogan says that the state is not considering lockdowns even in the face of rising hospitalizations. This is a case of a Republican governor putting his possible bid for President in 2024 ahead of public safety. Will TYmes Square be opn on New Year's eve? We still have to cure cancer eating at our democracy. Step one is getting rid of DDT by locking him up for crimes committed.

18 December: MASA plus 328 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's Saturday and near the end of the congressional term, so things are quiet aside from COVID. Between a couple of Democrats and all the Republicans, they have managed to gum up the works for passing major legislation that the country sorely needs. Yesterday, I wrote that TikTok was hosting calls for school shootings. It turns out that was a hoax, but the hoax spread like wildfire and became the same as if TikTok had actually allowed such vile stuff. Turkey, thanks to Erdogan, is suffering from a lack of affordable food with bread lines stretching for long distances. It is crazy, but his mismanagement of Turkey is hard to grasp. He reminds me of DDT, except that DDT was not in office long enough to do such damage. Not for want of DDT trying to stay in office longer to completely wreck the country as he had with everything he touches. It is time to put Saturday to bed and time to lock DDT up where he can do no further harm.

17 December: MASA plus 327 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. This is totally unexpected. A federal appeals court has reinstated Biden's administration’s business vaccine and testing mandate. Now Biden is pushing for vaccine mandates for health care workers. It is hard to believe, but Tik Tok contained many calls for more shootings at schools. It is not clear who or what is behind such postings, but they are abhorrent. One of the 6 January rioters who threw a fire extinguisher at police and other violet acts got 5 years in prison. He apologized after seeing videos of himself assaulting the police. There is a huge COVID surge occurring as the cold weather sets in with a lot of it the new Omicron version. There are going to be a lot of lockdowns and restrictions for meetings and get-togethers coming up. How stupid can you be? DDT claimed that Jews had "Absolute Control’ Over Congress" in an antisemitic interview with journalist Barak Ravid. Russia has delivered its ultimatum concerning NATO and Ukraine. It is pretty severe and will definitely be rejected. One hopes that assurances of no NATO or US attack on Russia will suffice to calm the egomaniac, Putin. More not-so-good news. It may be that the Iran talks are nearing an end without Iran willing to work with the west on limiting uranium enrichment. DDT, with his racist remarks and possibly criminal behavior, really needs to be locked up for the good of the nation and democracy in America.

 

16 December: MASA plus 326 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. More subpoenas for more people surrounding DDT. Let's hope the net gets really tight. The COVID rate is rising rapidly, especially the Omicron variety. Hospitals are getting overwhelmed and more people are dying. Before this winter is out, it will be a crisis. It also looks as if the vaccines are not that effective against Omicronm, so stay masked in public places unless you are a DDT supporter and conspiracy anti-vaxxer person, the take your chances and remember that dead people can't vote in 2022. Here we go again, COVID is shutting down things in cities and in workplaces. Will life ever return to normal? The FDA has made early pregnancy antiabortion pills available by mail and, instantly, Republican states are trying to block receiving such mailings of the FDA approved abortion pills. From AP news, "A federal judge rejected OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma’s bankruptcy settlement of thousands of lawsuits over the opioid epidemic Thursday because of a provision that would protect members of the Sackler family from facing litigation of their own." Connecticut Attorney General William Tong, who was among a handful of state officials seeking to have the deal undone, called the ruling “a seismic victory for justice and accountability.” That is what this country needs, accountability, especially for 6 January and all the other insults to our democracy for DDT and his family. It is time to proceed with locking DDT up for crimes committed against the law and against America

15 December: MASA plus 325 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is getting cloe to 1 year in office. While Biden is doing a good job, he is plagued by COVID and inflation (caused by COVID). It looks like Biden will not get his social legislation through this year and perhaps never with senators Manchin and Sinema standing in the way. It is sad to watch this idiocy playout for personal gain when the country really needs these programs. Both of these Senators have something personal to gain by opposing the legislation. DDT's SPAC investment company is looking worse and worse. There is no business model and no business leader. The CEO has a degree in agriculture and is not too bright to start with (Nunes).  He needs a dedicated red control-alt-delete key. The best thing that Nunes has done during his career in Congress was to resign to work on the DDT social media project. After all, what is one more failure in a life of toil and trouble? It is getting very dangerous, China is backing Russia over Ukraine. Without some real care, war could break out. Enough for tonight. Those of you with a workable IQ (over 100) should agree to throw DDT in jail and lock him up to save American democracy. 

14 December: MASA plus 324 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. They did it at the last minute, but nonetheless, they did it. The Democrats p[assed a temporary debt ceiling increase without Republican help and avoided a government shutdown. This increase is good until February when the Republicans say this time they will shut the government down unless the Democrats give up on Biden's BBB plan. Democrats will be stupid if they go along with this misguided power play. The bosses in the Kentucky candle factory that got hit with the tornado (70 dead) threatened to fire anyone that left because of the tornado. One only hopes that the bosses that were stupid enough to say anything like that are among the 70. Southern California is experiencing an extreme weather event with 3 or more inches of rain in a region more accustomed to dry dry dry. Omicron is gaining in many parts of the US even though way behind delta. The question is how deadly is Omicron compared to the very deadly Delta. I was just reading an article in the NY Times about how the "Proud Boys" are switching to local issues like school boards where they can threaten and intimidate just by their presence and with occasional real threats of violence. We are seeing another facet of breakdown fo democratic civil society in an obvious "brown-shirt" movement. Apparently, DDT's anger level at Mark Meadows has exploded over Meadows giving so much material to the 6 January committee plus writing a scathing book. Almost funny, if it were not so serious. Former Governor Cuomo has been ordered to repay the profits, $5.1 million, from his COVID leadership book as part of an ethics investigation. I wonder how that is going to play out since the book is not yet written. The big news is that inflation continues and that the Fed is planning to raise interest rates to contain it. This usually indicates a downturn in economic activity. A new study conducted by average intelligence scientists suggests that rocket scientists and the average person are of equivalent intelligence. This may be true for the average intelligence scientist conducting the study but is clearly bogus if you actually know super-smart people that are "rocket scientists". DDT is out there fulminating on the background about the revenge he is going to take on those who refused to cheat on the election outcome. If DDT gets back into power, it will be nasty. Please NY and Georgia, throw that loser DDT into jail and lock him up.

13 December: MASA plus 323 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The House pane investigating the 6 January attempted insurrection is recommending criminal contempt for Meadows. The documents submitted by Meadows reveal texts full of panic from DDT Jr. and from Fox News hosts. The tornado devastation in Kentucky raises a crucial question as to why the workers were not allowed to leave before the tornado struck. The same thing happened in Illinois where Amazon workers were also restrained from leaving a warehouse that collapsed.  Quoting from NewsNow, "CNN producer paid Nevada mother to fly cross-country so a 9-year-old girl could be ‘trained properly,’ Sexually trained. What is wrong with some people. This is beyond ugly. Biden is trying to get Manchin to budge on the 2 trillion dollars Build Back Better spending bill. Manchin just said, "anything is possible". The Supreme Court has refused to block the NY vaccine mandate. It's about time they did something for the public good. It is starting to look as if the Omicron version is not as serious as previous COVID mutations. It appears to be more easily transmissible, but not as deadly. More data is needed. We still have DDT lurking in the shadows wanting to destroy democracy in America. The quickest cure for this cancer is to lock DDT up for crimes committed.

12 December: MASA plus 322 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Governor Newsome in California is proposing a citizens lawsuit effort against gun manufacturers patterned after the Texas vigilante law against abortion. This method gets around the court's ability to determine constitutionality and threatens the system of nationwide justice. I am against this. However, as a tool against the Texas law, I am for it wholeheartedly. If the Texas law is allowed to stand; it will be the end of the Federal State relationship as we know it. Bottom line is that each state will be able to ignore any federal law it does not like. Chris Wallace has finally had enough with Fox News, after the Tucker Carlson lie fest documentary, and is moving to CNN. He was one of the few at Fox Fake News that had integrity. The G7 looks as if it has a unified position on Russia invading Ukraine, threatening severe economic consequences. Let's hope they hold together. An Appeals Court ruling against DDT is setting up a Supreme Court test of the right of the current President to call the shots, in this case about the 6 January records. This Sunday I have been reading article after article about the potential demise of the democratic system in the US caused by the Republican Party trying to restrict voting and to manipulate election results after the voting. This needs to be stopped. Normally, one would rely on the Supreme Court to stop the nonsense, but with this politically packed court (thanks McConnell) it is very unlikely to get support from them. Republicans are afraid of DDT and losing in primaries to DDT worshippers. We have to convict DDT for crimes committed and lock DDT up.

 

MASA = Make America Sane Again                                             

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

11 December: MASA plus 321 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. There are over 100 people killed in a tornado in Kentucky that were working in a factory when disaster hit. It is hard to grasp even though it is small compared to the nearly 800,000 deaths from COVID. Hopefully, there will be help rebuilding the town and people's lives. Biden's got it tough. The economy is going well, he negotiated with Putin forcefully, but COVID and inflation driven largely by COVID have got him down. Ukraine is still an area that could explode at any moment with Russia apparently looking for any pretext to start a war even if the price it pays is high. Putin's ego seems to have gotten the better of him. Domestically, the biggest thing right now, aside from the Supreme Court and the abortion issue is the Republican attempts to take over the voting process in states where they control the legislature. These are the insertion of low-level partisan Republican election officials that oversee vote counting and getting those same legislatures to give themselves the power to overturn elections. Basically, you are witnessing the destruction of the election process in a democracy thanks to DDT. It may be almost too late, but we can still lock up DDT and save America.

10 December: MASA plus 320 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. More subpoenas were issued by the House committee investigating 6 January and more pressure on DDT and cronies to testify in NY.  There is an explosive PowerPoint presentation detailing the plan to overturn the election in DDT's favor that has been discovered by the House committee. The presentation from Mark meadows alleged that China had effective control of American voting machines and urged the declaration of a “national security emergency” as a pretext for throwing out election results in several US states. The "noose" is loose but getting tighter. The latest on the Supreme Court and abortion is that they let stand the law but allowed lawsuits to go forward. This has caused considerable concern in the Biden White House. There is a major COVID surge in NYC that is sure to be reproduced elsewhere as time goes on. So far the disease caused by Omicron does not appear to be as severe as Delta. In spite of the improving economy and real steps on COVID, Biden's approval rating continues to slip with inflation being the biggest driver. John Roberts, the chief justice of the United States, warned Friday that the Supreme Court risks losing its own authority if it allows states to circumvent the courts as Texas did with its near-total abortion ban using citizen's arrest capability. Remember DDT is still out there planning trouble for 2022 and 2024. The only way to stop him and his money machine is to convict him for crimes committed and lock DDT up.

9 December: MASA plus 319 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The court of Appeals has denied DDT's bid to block turning over his papers from the House investigating committee. The judge gave DDT's lawyers 14 days to appeal to the Supreme Court. This is another case that could destroy the Court's credibility as a non-partisan. It looks like the Senate will defy DDT and manage to pass a new debt limit bill. This will be a major victory for sanity on what should be a minor legislative procedure. Even so, the method is torturous. Ten Republicans will vote to let the Democrats raise the debt limit by removing the 60 vote requirement one time. That way it can be said the Democrats raised the debt limit by themselves. This is definitely the work of the Stupid Party. Two California men, father and son, have been arrested for starting one of Califonia's major fires that threatened the communities around Lake Tahoe. Biden is calling on leaders of countries to end the "backward" slide of democracies. This is no joke, especially for the US. Everyone that is contributing to the backward slide imagines themselves as the beneficiaries of such degeneration, but they are just as likely to become victims. In the absence of enforceable laws, your life runs at the whims of a dictator. One only has to look at Russia or China to see the result of such a government system. The prosecutor in NY is requiring DDT to testify under oath about his fraudulent tax scams involving banks and the State of NY. Testifying under oath is the surest way for DDT to wind up in jail. I'm all for it. Convict and lock DDT up for a long time.

8 December: MASA plus 318 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I seem to have missed a day in the saga of post-DDT America. Sad but true. Apparently, savy investors are laughing at the latest DDT company that seems to be a scam for raising over 1 billion dollars. The really funny this is Nunes resigning his house seat to be CEO of the new SPAC-funded company. Doesn't he realize that everyone that partners with DDT loses in the end? If it goes that way, it couldn't happen to a nicer sucker. As an American, I am glad to be rid of Nunes. Mark Meadows first was going to cooperate with the House committee, then he will not, and now is suing Pelosi and crew for over burdensome requests for phone records and other documents. Perhaps he can be cellmates with Steve Bannon. There have been a lot of articles recently on the potential demise of democracy in the US-based on the manipulation of voting by Republicans that insures minority rule in the US. Wake up middle and lower-class America. Vote those Republican bums out before they give everything you have earned away to the rich. We can start by getting rid of DDT by locking him up in a nice warm jail cell.

7 December: MASA plus 317 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Was not feeling well today. Back tomorrow. Still, lock DDT up.

6 December: MASA plus 316 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. In the news today was a story about how DDT tested positive for COVID and then proceeded to mix with other people, over 500, during the week before he went into the hospital. It's just another instance showing how DDT is irresponsible and non-caring about other people. Republican Representative Nunes, no bright light, is resigning from Congress to head DDT's new social media group. Anyone at this stage that works for DDT chasing money at the end of the rainbow is automatically stupid with their head in the sand or elsewhere. The Justice Department is suing Texas over its redistricting of congressional maps, claiming violations of the Voter Rights Act. Let's hope Justice wins. If they do, it will have important implications in all the states. I almost forgot that the debt ceiling circus is upon us again. Will the GOP play its usual obstructionist role to try to subvert programs that Biden and most Democrats want to pass? Of course, they will. These clowns are for saving their own necks against DDT's determined efforts to defeat anyone that opposes him regaining the presidency. The GOP could think of the country first instead of their own preservation as part of a non-governing party that wants to enrich the rich. The only way to stop this is to vote them out of office at all levels and put their politically fearsome leader DDT in jail.

5 December: MASA plus 315 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Twice impaired,  I mean impeached, DDT just called himself stupid and corrupt. Of course, he did this in a stupid way by using a sentence with a double negative, “Anybody that doesn’t think there wasn’t massive Election Fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election is either very stupid or very corrupt!”. Stupid must run in the entire Republican party. Ron Johnson's (R-Wis.) just claimed that both the Aids and Covid epidemics are overhyped. The truth is Aids killed over 750,000 people in the US and over 5 million worldwide, while COVID has killed over 780,000 in the US alone and is rapidly growing. The anti-vax people all over the world are having violent protests, the latest in Belgium. It's all about their freedom to get sick and being able to infect others. Today, Bob Dole died at 98, one of the last decent intelligent Republicans, a leader who knew how to govern, not just obstruct. In honor of Dole, we need to convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up

4 December: MASA plus 314 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Chris Cuomo is out on his head for abusing his CNN position as a reporter supporting his brother, the former Gov of NY, in his sex abuse scandal. Good for CNN. Biden and Putin are going to hold talks by secure video call about the explosive Ukraine situation. Hopefully, this will avert actual war. It is not clear at the moment what Putin's intentions are but it certainly looks ominous. Omicron is now everywhere in small numbers so far. It could be a deadly winter. "The Hill" published an article on DDT's tendencies to use bullying as a tactic against people that might disagree with him. "In a statement attacking three men, Trump used words including “con man,” “lightweight lapdog assistant,” “craggy smug face” and “treason.”  It's the behavior of a child in a 75-year old man. It's time for therapists or commitment for psychosis. Unfortunately, all this will be on display since DDT's media partner says it has lined up 1 billion in funding for an internet competitor for Facebook. I hope it gets crushed. As with everything DDT, it will be an eyesore of morality and ethics. The only way to stop this child in a man's clothing is to lock him up in an orange jumpsuit.

3 December: MASA plus 313 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Snowstorm in Hawaii, 12 inches at higher altitudes, but nothing in Denver Colorado. Weird weather. Omicron cases are spreading in the US with cases reported in several states. Bad news for the upcoming Christmas holiday. It looks like DDT is still trying to get a social media platform up and running. He has hooked up with a Canadian firm Rumble that has become a favorite of the kooky far right. The funding is there from wealthy staunch DDT Republicans looking to perform another coup. For the past few weeks, the biggest news has been the buildup of Russian troops on the Ukrainian border equipped with all the heavy gear needed for an invasion. Of course, Putin denies that this is his intent. If her precedes the world will be in another real mess with a war on the edge of the EU. yes, it could be worse. We could have a hands-off President insofar as our allies in Europe are concerned. Who could that be? Well, it might be the failed insurrectionist DDT who needs to be locked up now.

2 December: MASA plus 312 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. An amazing act of legerdemain, The Senate has passed a magic budget bill that will disappear without a trace on 18 February. I am so happy that we have such competent bozos governing our great country. Along with that, our government is graciously giving us free home tests for COVID so that the great unwashed (and unvaccinated) can know in advance that they are in deep trouble. Biden is being blasted for reviving the remain in Mexico policy. He is also being blasted about allowing too many refugees into the US. Next, he will be blasted for using too much red and green at Christmas time. It's OK. It beats the Melania color scheme. Whoops. The FDA is infringing on America's right to stink or not to stink by warning that Antiperspirants have cancer-causing chemicals. Now, it is everyone's right to smell good and die of cancer if they so wish, or use soap and water every day. Good for Pelosi! She said the Supreme Court justices need "birds and bees" lessons.  That would be better than the squirrely nut lessons that six of them seem to have absorbed. Manchin strikes again to eliminate a vaccine mandate for large businesses. We really need to get more Democrats into the Senate so that we do not have to rely on Manchin. Of course, the GOP is threatening a shutdown over the vaccine rule. One good thing about the Omicron virus spreading rapidly in Europe is that we will quickly get good data on just how bad this will be. It's in the US also, so we will generate our own data as well. Oh yes, the stock market went up today after going down yesterday just like a carnival ride. We really do need more Democrats in every part of government including at the state level. It's going to be harder now that Republicans have screwed with the election system, but it has to be done. And we have to save the US and lock up the wanna-be tyrant, DDT.

1 December 2021 MASA plus 311 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. While the bell will not ring until the Supreme Court term is over, one can already hear the ugly note overturning women's rights. Women, your lives mean less than those of men, get used to it. We are back to the dark ages in at least 20 states. For those with means and opportunity, your freedom over your own person is still there just a short trip away to the best of the other states. If you are poor or unable to travel, tough. Except for those religiously indisposed, the rest of womenkind must vote Republicans out of office. If you do not, then you do not deserve the rights you are about to lose. Men of conscience must also support getting rid of the curse of DDT Republicans in as many parts of the country as possible. We need to ban the abortion of a political party that has usurped the name "Republican". On a softer note, the Omicron variant is in the United States and will likely spread wildly. Hopefully, the vaccines are effective. If not, it will be open season on everyone, not just the "un-vaxxed", mostly Republicans. Gun violence is showing its ugly head again and again, this time in Michigan where a 15-year-old gunned down fellow students in some gothic fantasy living in his own head. He used a pistol bought just a few days prior by his father. How much is it going to take to get some kind of effective gun control? Just before this, a 2-year-old killed a 5-year-old with a pistol. The latter was not an accident, it was a purposeful act of recklessness on the part of adults in that household. The adults should be held responsible. The good news is that Stacey Abrams is running for governor in Georgia again. If she wins, then one more state can be returned to sanity. Oh nice, I just read that conservatives (read Republicans) are planning to try to shut down the government over the debt ceiling and budget bills as a means to force the undoing of the vaccine mandate. The stock market took another Omicron hit today on top of a Fed announcement from Jerome Powell that credit will tighten to fight inflation. Biden cannot get a break. It is time to exorcise the devil in our midst and free the Republican party. Let's start by locking DDT up for crimes committed.

MASA = Make America Sane Again            DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

30 November: MASA plus 310 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. A federal judge has blocked a vaccine mandate for health care workers. Not sure of the reasoning, if that is the right word for it. His reason was that the president does not have the power to protect the country, only congress has that power. Ok, pretty stupid, but what can you expect from Louisiana? Former DDT aide, Medows, has agreed to cooperate with the House investigating committee about the 6 January failed insurrection. Some of these people involved should wind up in jail, especially if caught lying to congress. Lots of worrying going on about the Supreme Court's ability to destroy abortion rights in Republican states. It is just the start, if we are not careful, on the slope towards a dictatorship. Not the abortion rights issues, but the Republican effort to subvert the election officials in various states and to give Republican legislatures the power to overturn election results. This is not a joke. They are appointing people that seriously question the 2020 presidential election to this day. House member Boebert has been making anti-muslim statements about one of my not favorite House members, Omar, suggesting that she is a terrorist. While I do not like Omar as a politician, her religion has nothing to do with it. For fun, Dr. Oz is running for the Senate in Pennsylvania. If you do not know the scam artist, Dr. Oz, then you should and you can be amused with me, that is unless he wins. DDT is out there applauding the chaos developing with our election system. DDT is hell-bent on destroying real elections and must be locked up.

29 November: MASA plus 309 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today the stock market bounced more than halfway back from yesterday's over 2% drop in fears of the new CIVID strain. Countries are doing travel bans foolishly to satisfy the political demands of doing something even if it does not work. It will cause economic chaos. In the Senate, the GOP blocked the defense bill in order to add amendments. This will be a cliffhanger. Also hanging, are bills to fund the government past the end of this week and the debt ceiling bill to allow the government to pay its bills on the debt. A federal judge has blocked the Biden vaccine mandate for health care workers in South Dakota and 9 other states. It shows that the courts can be stupid too. Senator Cotton, a well-known non-scientist has blasted Dr. Fauci for claiming to be a scientist that knows medical science. Cotton has once again shown that he has more than a few loose threads. The Supreme Court is about to take on a case that could overturn Roe vs Wade and allow some states to outlaw abortions. For the middle and upper classes, this is not much of a problem as travel to other states will take care of their problems. For the poor and some working woman, this could be a disaster. We still have DDT and his butt kisser floating around wanting to impose an effective dictatorship. DDT needs to be locked up as soon as possible.

28 November: MASA plus 308 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. How time flies. Biden is at a low point in popularity partly because of inflation even though the job market and economy have improved markedly. Unfortunately for Biden, there are fears for the COVID variants and the effects of his infrastructure bill will not be felt unti well into 2022. This may be too late for the mid-term election. Senator Ted the bald-faced liar Cruz is trying to accuse Dr. Fauci of lying to Congress about COVID and the supporting of enhanced function research. Fauchi came back with a simple answer, Ted, what about your lies about the 6 January peaceful tourists (failed insurrection). Asked if Republicans might be raising the claims to make him a scapegoat and deflect criticism of DDT Fauci said, “of course, you have to be asleep not to figure that one out.” Quoting the Hill, "The Republican Party is becoming a cult. Its leaders are in thrall to Donald Trump, a defeated former president who refuses to acknowledge defeat. Its ideology is MAGA, Trump’s deeply divisive take on what Republicans assume to be unifying American values. The party is now in the process of carrying out purges of heretics who do not worship Trump or accept all the tenets of MAGA. Conformity s enforced by social media, a relatively new institution with the power to marshal populist energy against critics and opponents." Historically, Republicans are parallelling the old Know-Nothing Party, a party of anti-immigrant racists in the 1800s. That party dies, but not before doing a lot of harm.  You know the drill here. Say after me, "Save America from a dictatorship and lock DDT up before it is too late.

27 November: MASA plus 307 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. To help with rising gasoline prices, Canada released 50 million pounds of maple syrup from its reserve. While Canada did release 50 million pounds of maple syrup, I am just joking about its relationship to gasoline prices. Of course, Canada is fighting above its weight to produce CO2 for global warming with its extraction of oil from tar sands by heating. Perhaps the Maple syrup is an offset. Today's news is all about the Omicron variant and shootings at shopping malls, both terrifying. Equally terrifying, a 6-year old child found a loaded gun during Thanksgiving dinner and shot a 5-year old girl. The stock market blew a gasket on Friday and dropped 2.3% over the appearance of the Omicron virus. And, we have the mass robberies at various stores by crowds of young people. It started in California, where else, but the last one was in Minnesota. There is one type of cancer we can cure in 2021. Lock DDT up and never let him out again.

 

26 November: MASA plus 306 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The new South African COVID variant is spreading with a case detected in Belgium. It is not clear whether the vaccines will be effective against this variant. This is scary and could lead to a worldwide lockdown again. Because of the variant, Biden has delayed a trip to Africa.  It is very quiet today with not much news of import. There was a note of Kushner trying to play footsie with middle eastern countries to raise money for his new investment firm. See how desperate I am for meaningful news. Even DDT was quiet today. The really big news was the Stephen Sondheim died today at 94 without warning or an apparent illness. His loss is really sad as a composer of Broadway shows and really fine music. DDT was there after all giving a speech to the military and bragging about how great he was. Fortunately, he use the word was. Let's keep it that way and lock DDT up for the crimes he committed.

25 November: MASA plus 305 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is Thanksgiving Day in the US with real turkeys that are welcome in anyone's home. People are getting together today despite COVID hoping that the risk of seeing family or friends is not a mistake. There is unsettling news today with the announcement of a new rapidly spreading COVID variant seen in South Africa that seems able to evade the body's immune system. If it really takes hold, it will render current vaccinations almost useless. We will be back to square 1 on protecting people. DDT is hinting at a 2024 bid to regain the presidency in a Thanksgiving Day message. DDT's presidential hint is nothing to be thankful for and must be thwarted at all legal costs. The best way would be to lock him up after conviction for crimes committed.

24 November: MASA plus 304 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The 3 men accused of killing Ahmaud Arberry were found guilty of murder. Sentencing later. This was outrageous murder by neighborhood racists who deserved the guilty verdict. The northern states, like Michigan, are experiencing such a COVID surge that the federal government has sent two medical teams to help. The current spate of deaths is mostly among Republicans with only 58% vaccinated compared to over 90% for Democrats. The funny part is Kevin McCarthy (House minority leader) blaming Biden for the surge in COVID when he loudly championed not requiring vaccination or the wearing of masks. Except this is not funny. The rise in COVID cases affects all of us in many ways, even just the availability of hospitals for normal health needs and surgeries, to say nothing about the economic impact of furthering the pandemic. Republicans see the lies as an effective election technique and so far enough of the public seems to be buying the lies to make it a real worry. It started in San Francisco, but now the brazen mass-theft attacks on stores are spreading to other cities in California. Part of it was due to a very lenient position on shoplifting that was meant to reduce jail sentences for the individual shoplifter. This is different. These are planned attacks costing huge amounts of money. Biden has invited Taiwan to a virtual conference for democracies and China is outraged and threatening possible war.  China is definitely not part of the world of coexisting nations. Part of it is due to DDT's attempt to punish China but most of it is caused by Xi's idea of an expanding China. In spite of all this, we have to keep the US from becoming a failed democracy. It is sick right now partly because of DDT. Please lock up DDT before it is too late.

23 November: MASA plus 303 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The dominoes are starting to fall. A jury found that the leaders of the Charlottesville Unite the Right rally are liable for 25 million dollars. This should keep them broke for a long time. The leaders of the pro-DDT mob the Oath Keepers (Proud boys) have been subpoenaed for the 6 January Capitol attempted insurrection and riots. On the DDT front, New York prosecutors are examining DDT's fraudulent transactions in real estate valuation for bank loans and tax avoidance. The case is about to go before a grand jury. The law is slow, but hopefully not so slow that it will spill over into the presidential elections in 2024. Biden is trying to revive the mask mandate ahead of the looming COVID surge in the US following the pattern set in Europe. Europe is expecting another 700,000 deaths this winter. Even Fox news anchors are abandoning Tucker Carlson over his "false flag" fake documentary about the failed 6 January insurrection. There still is no cure for most types of cancer, but there is one with a definite cure. Cure the evil cancer that is an affliction on US politics and lock DDT up.

22 November: MASA plus 302 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Waukesha Wisconsin massacre caused by a car driven into a parade by a long-term criminal fleeing a domestic dispute is a totally insane event with five killed and a number injured some critically. Roger Stone and Alex Jones (online Nazi sympathizer) are among five people receiving subpoenas from the House committee investigating the 6 January insurrection attempt. Stone maintains it was a peaceful protest. The White House has confirmed that Joe Biden will run again in 2024. It is still a very long way off. Another deadly shooting in Israel by Hamas with Israel now asking Turkey to shut down the portion of Hamas residing in Turkey. Biden has run into a lot of flack from the "progressive" wing of the democratic party for nominating Jerome Powell as Fed chair. Powell has done a good job with the economy and deserves a second term. Nothing really much is happening other than the stuff above. DDT still lurks as an evil force in the background and must be locked up.

21 November: MASA plus 301 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's a quiet Sunday this week before Thanksgiving.  Europe is another story with violent protests continuing over the COVID lockdowns. The US has yet to experience a winter surge n COVID, but given Europe's experience, it is coming. Today was insane. 80 looters charged into a Nordstrom in San Francisco and stole arms full of merchandise. Police caught 3 of them. Hopefully, more to come. And the social spending bill heads top the Senate where it will be amended and then head back to the house. That is if they can get anything passed at all. Belarus is still bringing refugees to the Polish border, which extends the crisis with the EU. The EU seems to be standing firmly against this aggression. Ok, I am reaching. More heavy rain is forecast in western Canada on top of the drenching and floods that have already experienced. With the republican party more and more looking like DDT, it is time to lock DDT up and save the Republican party and the United States

20 November: MASA plus 300 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. As expected there are violent protests in Europe against the COVID lockdown. People want the freedom to die a horrible death. A warning has been issued by US government officials about a possible Russian incursion into Ukraine. Putin is playing with fire to see just how far he can go before the penalty becomes too high. An armored truck dropped cash on the highway as drivers scrambled to pick up the cash. Police are now looking for the drivers. It looks like Beto O'Rourke is going to run for governor in Texas against Abbott. It's a long shot, but worth the effort. Texas will turn, the question is just when. Voting manipulation is alive and well with the Ohio governor approving voting maps that give republicans further advantage. US infection rates from COVID are rising as colder weather starts in Northern states. It's a quiet day today, so let's concentrate on the essentials. Find DDT and lock him up for crimes against anyone that can think.

19 November: MASA plus 299 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Right wingnut Kyle Rittenhouse got off totally free with not even an illegal gun carry charge. Somehow, the blubber-head convinced a jury that he was in mortal fear so that killing two people was permissible as part of his mission. Vigilantes rejoice while the rest of us remain sad. For one brief moment, a woman, Camala Harris, held the power of the presidency while President Biden underwent a colonoscopy. Right afterward Biden re-assumed his power as president and pardoned turkeys, peanut butter, and jelly for Thanksgiving. On a more serious front, the House passed Biden's 1.75 trillion social spending bill, which now goes to the obstructionist Senate. Austria has implemented a COVID lockdown and there are riots in Rotterdam as a COVID protest turns violent. The world is a mess with authoritarians surfacing, global warming causing hunger and death, and the ever-present (now) COVID pandemic. On top of all this is DDT-jr trying to hold a rally for 2024. Does daddy-DDT approve? The bottom line as always, convict DDT for crimes committed and lock DDT up

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

18 November: MASA plus 298 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Rep[ublican House minority leader McCarthy spoke for 8 hours lambasting and threatening Democrats as part of a delaying tactic on the vote for Biden's Build Back Better bill. Part of the tirade was a threat of revenge for the censuring of Gosar for posting videos of violence against Pelosi and AOC. It was a sad display of the Republican party's refusal to be part of governance and a raw grab for power at any cost. Given the way Republicans are marching in lockstep with DDT and the extreme rightwing, we may be witnessing the start of a power grab for Republicans at any cost. The house is pushing for a vote on social spending for tomorrow, Friday. The CBO has determined that the social spending bill will add to the deficit but not at the amount that DDT's tax cuts added. Austria, under threat of a winter rise in infections is imposing a full COVID lockdown and making vaccination mandatory. This should serve as a warning to the US where winter arrives later than in Europe. Jurors are set to start their fourth day of deliberation in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial for killing 2 people and wounding a third. It is possible that there will be a hung jury and a retrial. DDT has come out in strong defense of Gosar and his ties to right-wing nationalists. It is a disgusting display of ignoring the principles of democracy in favor of minority rule in the form of a dictatorship. As Americans, we should be afraid of this turn in the Republican party, which needs to be dismantled as a non-governing party bent on achieving power at any cost. And, in the process, the cancer that is DDT needs to be locked up.

17 November: MASA plus 297 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT is pooping all over himself with a confused tirade about McConnell calling him schoolyard names that any 10-year-old bully would use. In the same tirade, DDT is also threatening our form of government calling for a budget default just to spite Biden. The DDT boy is a threat to the nation and must be stopped. From the Hill, "DDT blasted his former Senate ally as “stupid” and a “fool” and accused him of “incompetence” in a long, tangled statement that jumped from expressing displeasure over Republican votes on a procedural motion related to raising the debt limit in October to Congress’s passage of the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill this month, to the ongoing Democratic talks over a social spending bill." The GOP is threatening to block the Defense Bill over a provision to make the US more competitive with China. Schummer apparently sneaked it in without GOP knowledge. Wyoming GOP has removed Liz Cheney by no longer recognizing the congresswoman as a Republican. I hope Cheney runs anyway and beats whatever far-right Republican they put in to replace her. Headline from USA Today, "Trump looks back on Jan. 6 'fondly' and wants to settle scores over false election claims, new book says". See what I mean. That person needs to rest a while in jail. A federal judge sentenced Jacob Chansley, the Q'Anon Shaman with horns, to 41 months in prison for his role in the Capitol riot but granted him an organic diet while in prison. It makes no sense, but the US auctioned off large oil leases in the Gulf of Mexico in the aftermath of the climate summit. It is frustrating. It is even more frustrating to see the head of the 6 January insurrection and likely crooked businessperson still on the loose where he can do much damage to the US. Lock DDT up.

16 November: MASA plus 296 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Kyle Rittenhouse jury is still deliberating. This is the 17year old that shot 3 people killing two in a right-wing march. The legal battle continues over the vaccine mandate for workers in large companies with the case headed to an appeals court stacked with DDT-appointed judges. It is hard to believe that the country isn't on board to stop the se=ickness and the deaths. The US Congress appears to be preparing a censure for the violent clip prepared by Paul Gosar threatening AOC. Let's hope they really follow through. The "Build Back Better" bill is pending waiting on a CBO report on the cost. If Biden wins this one, perhaps public opinion will change dramatically. The Belarus situation is getting uglier with tear gas and water canon being aimed at the trapped migrants. Fortunately, airlines are now refusing to fly into Belarus, which should stop the crisis from getting worse. Both the US northwest and British Columbia have been hit hard by a huge storm with floods, mudslides, and loss of power. A real mess. WOW US retail sales are way up signaling a robust recovery from the economic slump during the pandemic. It is all routine news today, except for the foreboding of another DDT run for president. Stop DDT by locking him up.

15 November: MASA plus 295 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden and Xi verbally joust over Taiwan but the main thing is that they are talking not fighting with Biden restating the commitment to the "One China Policy" while not abandoning the Taiwan democracy. Bannon was shooting his mouth off defiantly after being indicted and surrendering to the court. Nothing new for the gasbag. Let's see how this comes out. The Republicans are threatening to call Biden cabinet members to testify in the House as revenge for requiring DDT cabinet members and advisors to testify about the attempted insurrection. It is sort of an empty threat since the Biden team is not committing crimes. The infrastructure bill is now law and we only need to see how it is implemented. It should cause major improvements in the US economy much as the interstate highway program did many years ago. There is heavy weather n the Pacific Northwest again with flooding and roads closed. It looks like this will be a regular feature of global warming. DDT is really mad about the infrastructure bill that supports Biden and is threatening to destroy those who voted for it. It's typical DDT trying to undermine democracy. We need to lock DDT up before he has a chance to further hurt the US.

14 November: MASA plus 294 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The headline screams "Death knell for coal" but I do not see that with both China and India use of coal increasing into at least the next decade. Even in the US, coal is not going away. Austria is getting serious about vaccination ordering a nationwide lockdown for the unvaccinated. The US Catholic Church is still pondering sanctioning Biden over his position on abortion, namely personally being against it but as President allowing women to choose. DeSantis is back at it again trying to woo the DDT base with COVID denial by bringing the legislature back to fight vaccine mandates. The man is blind except for his own ambition. The chatter is already starting about a successor to Biden even though Biden insists he will run for a second term. The vice president is not scaring off anyone. More assaults on airlines. This time a woman assaulted an employee and was ejected from the airplane. No, not while it was in flight. Musk taunted Bernie Sanders with "I forget you are alive", something a six-year-old might say. Time to get back to convicting DDT for crimes committed and lock him up.

13 November: MASA plus 293 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Nationally, COVID rates are declining slowly and vaccination numbers are increasing. There are still many holdouts thinking only of themselves and not of their families and community. The level of ignorance astounds me as does their level of selfishness. What does worry me is the effect of vaccine mandates on the employment of those who refuse. There is a limit on the number of people that can relocate to Florida and Texas to find employment there. The climate change meeting, COP26, is coming to an end with substantial but insufficient agreements to curb the use of fossil fuels and the emission of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. The effects of global warming are already felt in the starvation in parts of Africa that have not seen rainfall in 2 years with crops non-existent and animal herds dying for lack of food and water. No amount of outside aid is going to avert this disaster. Satellite images show declines in glaciers that feed the water supply in India and South America. It is just a matter of time before those water sources disappear. The climate problem will solve itself with mass die-offs and depopulation but this is the wrong way to go. Interesting. The former princess from Japan has left with her husband to live in New York after severe criticism from Japan. Politically, inflation fears are destroying the Biden administration's credibility. Not that the Republicans could do anything better to solve inflation caused by the pandemic and supply chain problems. Former DDT press secretary has claimed that DDT held many off-the-record meetings to keep information out of the archives. This is important because of the House probe into White House activities related to the 6 January attempted insurrection. DDT is royally pissed at McConnel for his support of the infrastructure bill. DDT is mad, not because he is opposed to the need for national repair of roads and bridges, but because he wants to prevent Biden from doing any thing useful that might enhance election results for Democrats. It's typical DDT, look out for yourself and the hell with everyone else. The refugee situation on the Belarus border grows worse every day with Belarus encouraging flights from the middle east and elsewhere into Belarus and then herding the refugees to the Polish border. Vladimir Putin issued a sharp rebuke to his Belarusian counterpart, Alexander Lukashenko, over the latter’s threat to cut off gas supplies to the European Union as a response to EU sanctions concerning the false election, and the manufactured refugee crises. The wheels of the law move slowly, but this is a time when some speed is needed to apprehend DDT before he and his minions do more harm to the US. Lock DDT up and save America.

12 November: MASA plus 292 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Steve Bannon has been indicted for contempt of Congress for his failure to comply with a subpoena issued by the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol. Each count of contempt of Congress carries a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of one year in jail. Now just get this done quickly. Amazing, the US Appeals court sided against Biden's vaccine mandate. I guessBiden has to declare a national emergency or something similar to stop the death and sickness.  WOW Medicare Part B (doctor's visits) will jump 14.5% over this year's premiums. It is not a lot in absolute dollar amount, but for people who are retired, it could be a real burden. In Europe, Belarus is still playing chicken with Europe's gas supplies. And Germany wants to rely on Putin for its supplies. That is crazy thinking. Austria is imposing a lockdown on unvaccinated people as the COVID cases increase rapidly. Big companies are splitting apart, GE, Johnson and Johnson, why?  There is inflation, workers quitting jobs, benefits ending, The world is going crazy at least here in the US. Lurking in the background is the plotting scheming DDT wanting to take over the US again for his personal gain. He must be stopped. Lock DDT up and save America.

11 November: MASA plus 291 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Doggone it. An appeals court has granted a temporary stay to DDT to hold off on releasing documents. A decision is promised in 2 weeks. I hope there is something from this to celebrate at Thanksgiving. Europe is getting a taste of what it means to rely on Russia with Belarus backed by Russia is threatening to cut off gas supplies as winter approaches. Got to love Putin. In the headlines is an ominous threat that Russia may be getting ready to invade Ukraine. What this will set off is anyone's guess. It could be an armed conflict that involves both the US and Russia. Not good for the world.  Part of this is DDT's fault for kissing Putin's hindquarters when DDT was pretending to be President. Unfortunately for the rest of us, DDT's reality show was real and now we pay the consequences. DeSantis, the sort of governor of Florida is not threatening to send migrants to Delaware to counter Biden's "secret" flights of migrants into Florida. Sounds fair to me. Time to end the pretensions of the would-be 47th president and lock DDT up.

10 November: MASA plus 290 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. China has finally come forward with a pledge to cooperate on controlling climate change. It's a bit disingenuous though since it does not preclude the expansion of domestic coal use for some time to come. The bottom line from the climate summit is that the new efforts, while better than nothing, are nowhere near sufficient to stem global warming. Each of the countries, including the US, is playing a shell game with the use of fossil fuels. Satellite observations of methane releases show this clearly as does Europe's use of burning wood for power generation and its new reliance on Russian gas for heating and power and India's continued expansion of coal use. In this case, cheating will get the world nowhere, since the atmosphere does not lie in its accounting of greenhouse gases. The price in human life on the ground will be enormous. Chalk up one for sanity. A federal judge in Texas has overturned Governor Abbott's ban on mask mandates in public schools. However, this may be a temporary victory upon appeal. Germany was lauded for its efforts on COVID mitigation but now is experiencing 50,000 cases per day while the government defends its plan to phase out the COVID state of emergency. The biggest and badest news today is that inflation, 6%, is surging to a 30 year high. This will hit the poor and most of the middle class quite hard. If not reversed will also hit the political scene and democrats' hopes for the 2022 election. A judge has denied DDT's request to hide papers from the House investigating committee. Hopefully, this is another step to hold DDT accountable for the 6 January insurrection. There are many crimes committed by DDT. DDT deserves a fair trial and a likely conviction that should send him to rot in jail.

 

9 November: MASA plus 289 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The legal system grinds slowly and sometimes grinds just fine. Fine enough to catch the criminal at the center of this mess. DDT's press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, Stephen Miller, and other ex-White House officials have been subpoenaed in Jan. 6 House probe. Another crazy place in the world where you have a criminal pretending to lead a nation is in Belarus where migrants have been purposefully led to the Polish border. The European Commission has accused Belarus's authoritarian leader of luring migrants with the false promise of easy entry to the EU. The standoff is getting dangerous. An American who faces criminal charges for participating in the January 6 riot at the United States Capitol is seeking asylum in Belarus. Good, let him stay there. I do not have much sympathy for the Polish government, but on this issue, Poland is right to protect its border from Belarus's leader, Alexander Lukashenko. As always, more shootings. This one is in the Boston area where 3 police were shot but survived. The shooter not so much. Conservative broadcaster Ann Coulter accused DDT of "betraying" his base and being "abjectly stupid". I certainly agree with the latter and do not care about the former.  As for DDT, lock him up and save the United States.

8 November: MASA plus 288 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden has got half of his goal passed and into law. The infrastructure bill is a done deal, no thanks to AOC and her cohorts, but thanks to 12 brave Republicans. I hope AOC and her biddies lose the primary election in 2022. Now onto the larger bill to help those in need. It is a slow process, but at least the wheels have started grinding. The lawyer John Eastman and Michael Flynn are among a small bunch given subpoenas related to the 6 January insurrection. Go ahead guys, lie to the House panel and get nailed for perjury. There is no one there to pardon you this time, The idiots are marching in Los Angeles for freedom, the freedom to die of COVID and to infect other people. Unfortunately, there are enough nut-jobs to be a serious problem. Even Federal workers are seeking exemptions. A crowd at JPL was carrying a sign that vaccines kill. This is insanity of the first order. Obama is at the climate summit in Glasgow and denounced the efforts of DDT to derail efforts to control climate damage. DDT is guilty of all kinds of damage to the US and the world. It is time to convict him for crimes committed and lock DDT up.

7 November: MASA plus 287 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The news is all about the infrastructure bill and how it is going to be divided among all the needed projects. The fighting among and within the states has already begun. It is clear that the task is enormous and the funds are not sufficient to do the whole job. Under the bill bridges, tunnels, internet, wholesome water, and air are major projects. The other good news is that the ultra-liberal AOC caught hell from her constituents for being against the infrastructure bill. Fortunately, Pelosi outmaneuvered her. The vaccine mandate is under attack from ideologues interested in only themselves and the DDT Republican base. It's been a quiet day today, with just the ordinary shootings, deaths at a concert where the band leader encouraged the stampeded toward the stage (not the first time for him), an assassination attempt against the prime minister in Iraq, lots of protests against the climate change conference, and so on. What is really important is building the case against DDT and getting him out of the picture and locked up.

6 November: MASA plus 286 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  An appeals court in Louisianna hs temporarily blocked Biden's COVID vaccine mandate for large employers. This is not unexpected from a court in Louisianna. Hopefully,m the insanity will not stand for long.  Of course, the big news of the day is that the House voted to pass the infrastructure bill even with some notable NO votes such as AOC and some of her group of fanatics. AOC may pay during the 2022 election. I will shed no tears. Pelosi was very clever using the black caucus as a driving force to get the bill over the finish line. Biden should sign it shortly. Georgia has convened a grand jury to investigate DDT's well-documented interference with the 2020 election. His own words after the election should be enough to indict him for racketeering, fraud, and other crimes according to Georgia law. Just the recorded phone call to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, urging him to “find 11,780 votes” — enough to reverse the state’s election result should be sufficient to indict and hopefully convict DDT. In campaign stops, DDT has admitted his crimes with much pride, which earns him that first D (Dumb). The Georgia case is one of two active criminal investigations known to touch on the former president and his circle; the other is the examination of his financial dealings by the Manhattan district attorney. One can hope. Are these the steps that will lead to the removal of cancer in America's political scene? Bottom line, convict DDT of his crimes and lock him up.

5 November: MASA plus 285 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Democrats keep trying to shoot themselves in the foot. So far they have missed by a little bit but as time passes the bullets get closer. Pelosi has had to delay the BBB bill again because her brat base does not know how to compromise. They want everyone's toys all for themselves even at the risk of finding themselves alone in the sandbox. For them, it seems as if getting nothing is better than getting a good start on healing the nation's wounds. Whoopie, truck drivers alone in their cab are exempt from getting the vaccine. COVID will filter out the stupid ones fairly quickly,  It looks like the University of Florida is no longer barring professors from testifying in voting rights cases. A victory for using publicity to fight stupidity. More good news. It looks like there are two candidates for drugs that fight COVID after you have it with good results for staying alive. Both will be approved very soon for use n the US and one is already in use in Britain. More good news, there was a strong jobs report that triggered a significant rise n the stock market. Now if we could only get rid of the cancer infecting our political lives. The first step is excising DDT by locking him up.

4 November: MASA plus 284 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Democrats are going to have to figure out how to respond to racism that is indirect, but clear to those inclined to be racist. Youngkin pulled it off in Virginia and showed a way for Republicans to appeal to their rabid base and part of the urban and suburban electorate that was turned off by DDT. This is not going to be easy. Of course, DDT claimed credit for Youngkin's victory and has a point. It was the nasty appeal to the DT base that enabled the Youngkin win, but without appearing on the surface to accept support from DDT. Meanwhile, Biden's bills for infrastructure and social reform are taking a beating from all sides. The end result will be the perception of a do-nothing Democratic Congress that will lose the 2022 elections. Between Manchin and Sinema nothing can be done in the Senate, and in the House, it is not much better with liberals standing in the way. A judge says that she will rule quickly on DDT's attempt to shield critical documents from the view of the House investigating committee. The DOJ is suing Texas over the new restrictive voting laws on the basis of civil rights violations. Let's hope the DOJ wins. A Texas realtor who flew to the Capitol riot on a private jet and said she wouldn't go to jail because of her 'blonde hair' and 'white skin' gets 60 days behind bars (Yahoo News). A tiny bit of justice. Now she needs to lose her job. America wake up. You are heading to a dictatorship and a vengeful one at that. We need to lock DDT up and save democracy.

3 November: MASA plus 283 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Just as predicted Virginia is now saddled with a Republican government that will make a mockery of women's rights and a mockery of education, that is you care about facts instead of whitewash. The things Younkin has promised will take money, money that he also promised not to raise with taxes. I'm glad that I do not live there. I can just be mad from the sidelines. NY got a Democratic mayor and New Jersey a Democratic Governor as did Boston. What I really care about is coming up in 2022. If the Democratic Party does not get its act together and pass meaningful legislation, its days are over for a long time in addition to the possibility of DDT again in 2024. What is going on now with Manchin is politically criminal that he cannot see beyond the end of his own nose. Manchin is blaming the spending package for the Virginia loss when it is just the opposite. It will be, do nothing and lose big in 2022. As expected, Republicans blocked the voting rights bill with a filibuster threat. Pretty soon only property owners will be able to vote. You laugh, but that is the way it once was. The Supreme Court appears to be on the verge of invalidating New York's gun control law that limits the right to carry weapons in the street and many public places without a permit. It's time for a Texas law that outlaws gun carrying and allows citizens to enforce the law by suing and winning $10,000 for a violation and a court victory. Why not? If it is good enough for Texas, then it should be good enough for NY. Small items. China is vastly upping its nuclear missile capability and the Fed is tapering its bond buying. Wake up America, you are about to lose your democracy with a dictator in 2024. Convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up before it is too late.

2 November: MASA plus 282 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Voting is over and it looks like Virginia has elected a DDT toady. Younkin has a very strong lead, over 200,000 as of this writing, and so is probably Virginia's next governor. I'm glad I do not live in Virginia. In NY, the democrat Eric Adams has won, which should lead to some progress for the city.  I just hope this is not a lead into 2022 and 2024. Another DDT presidDUNCY is more that I can take. Democrats in Congress are still fiddling while their house burns. This is an incredible case of not giving a damn about the country in favor of their own parochial interests. Frankly, I am sick of it as I am sure a lot of people are sick and tired of nothing getting done. Enough for today's version. As always, lock DDT up for the crimes already committed and save the United States.

1 November 2021: MASA plus 282 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Voting is very heavy in Virginia with Trumpkin lying his way to a close race in the polls. However, Youngkin avoided the DDT rally just to try to fool suburban fools that he is not DDT in disguise. Biden got it right. DDT's policies put the world behind the 8-ball (if you have never played Pool, it means in a really bad place). It is hard to believe that Manchin is so grossly willing to sacrifice the country for his own greedy needs. Manchin wants Congress to approve the infrastructure bill before he will vote on the general spending bill. For a while, I thought he was just playing a necessary political game for a Democrat in a mostly Republican state, but now I see it as purely selfish. West Virginia will benefit mightily from the infrastructure bill while other states will benefit from the general spending bill. It's time Manchin to see beyond your own parochial nose and do what is needed for the country. The climate conference grinds on with a few promises that are useful if delivered. The latest is an end to deforestation. Brazil, are you listening? I doubt it with Bolsonaro as President. Guns are still a big issue. A Colorado gun store owner just shot his wife, two kids, and then himself. Of course, that was not the only shooting today or yesterday, or tomorrow. Perhaps states like NY should pass legislation like texas and allow citizens to sue for violations of gun carry laws. That would serve two purposes. Even if Trumpkin loses in Virginia, a stronger message needs to be sent to  Republicans. Convict DDT for crimes committed and lock him up.

31 October: MASA plus 281 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. In the US it is Halloween and the little ghosts and goblins are out and about "trick or treating", but almost always treating with candies and costumes. It is a reminder of softer normal times. COVID is on the decline in most of the US, Alaska being an exception as winter sets in. It remains to be seen what happens in the rest of the US where cold weather will hit later this year, Biden is furiously trying to undo the damage caused by DDT when he pretended to be president of the US and not just chief stoker of his own self-importance. What a jerk. He made the US a loser in the image of himself. The other big piece is the climate change summit where heads of state are trying to hammer out some agreement to limit the production of greenhouse gases but with the foreknowledge that the next few years will see an increase in CO2 and methane regardless of the best agreement. The switch over to cleaner energy sources will take time. The irony is that the biggest producer of greenhouse gases, China, is not even represented by its head of state and has no plans to internally reduce the use of coal in the near future. This is followed by India, which relies on coal and more coal to underproduce the power needed for its huge and growing population. Global warming will devastate India with water and food shortages as it will African and other areas of the world. A lot of India's water is from gradual glacial melt each year. As global warming kicks in the ice will melt faster causing floods followed by drought and famine. The same scenario will play out in other parts of the world as well such as northern South America. It is a bleak prospect. The US is not immune either as can be seen in its Southwest suffering from lack of water and climbing temperatures. The real fear is if somehow DDT gets back into power, or a DDT clone, that in the name of helping himself and his rich buddies, a second DDT presidency will doom the reforms needed for averting climate disaster. Even now it may be too late as the normally frozen north is melting and releasing huge amounts of methane in a self-feeding cycle of global warming leading to major sea-level rise, intolerable summer temperatures, famine, and disease. At all costs, a recurrence of DDT must be avoided by simply locking him up for crimes already committed.

 

30 October: MASA plus 280 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT is again trying to suppress White House records related to the 6 January insurrection. Biden so far has refused to invoke the executive privilege against the House investigating committee. In Virginia, Republican gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin has a fighting chance because he has courted racists and conspiracy theorists without completely alienating educated suburbanites. From Yahoo News, "Virginia governor race shows how Trumpism rotted the entire Republican Party". Biden is finally relaxing the metal tariffs imposed by DDT much to the relief of the Europeans. This should boost trade in both directions. Votes on Biden's domestic agenda are scheduled for this coming Tuesday. It will be interesting to see if the Democratic Party is interested in political suicide just to make a point by the more liberal members. Apparently, the newest brewing financial crisis paralleling the 2008 housing crisis is in auto loan-backed securities. Investors are not checking whether sky-high loans are not being given to people that cannot afford the payments, shades of 2008. As usual, DDT lurks in the background with incessant bleats of a stolen election that almost no one in their right mind believes. He's about to visit the Virginia election to push Trumpkin (Youngkin) on Virginia. It is time to lock DDT up and save the US of America.

29 October: MASA plus 279 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Supreme Court has denied religious exemptions for the vaccine mandate and denied other reasons to avoid the mandate. What a surpise. This has caused a major reaction with police and firefighters leaving their jobs in a fit of stupid spite. Of course, they can all go to Florida where the governor, equally stupid, will welcome them with open arms and a cash incentive. I read today that DDT's attempt to make use of a SPAC to fund his internet effort to compete with Facebook may have violated SEC rules for investors. Just another example of dealing from the bottom of the deck on the part of DDT and the people around him. Crooks of a feather tend to flock together. Biden's agenda still remains out of reach of Congress even as Biden is in Europe to attend the climate summit. As of today, the G20 are deadlocked since China will not budge on their own climate goals. There are still two obstacles in the way and neither is willing to compromise. Right now the worst is Manchin who represents a state that desperately needs help. COVID rates are ticking upward as cooler weather sets in. In California Newsome is warning of a winter surge. This will likely be the same everywhere. The public domain company that DDT used for his website efforts is demanding that DDT live up to the agreement and make his coding modification public as required in the license. After all, what's a contract to DDT, those are for little people. It is time, New York and Georgia to formally charge DDT with crimes and put him on trial. If guilty, then lock DDT up.

28 October: MASA plus 278 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Wall Street Journal decided to publish an unhinged and unchecked rant about baseless election conspiracy theories from none other than DDT. DDT falsely declared that the 2020 election was “rigged” and provided a list of ridiculous statistics to prove his point. If is discredits DDT, then WSJ did the right thing, but if it encourages his crazy followers, then this move to sell papers is destructive. Biden's program to build back better is on increasingly shaky legs. On one side are the liberals in the House refusing to back the infrastructure plan and on the other in the Senate are two idiotic Senators that would rather have nothing than compromise. In the end, that is what America will get, nothing, except a lead into further destructive Republican rule starting in 2022. This is insanity playing itself out right in front of your eyes. Tucker Carlson has an upcoming 3-part series on Fox cable news that seeks to reinterpret history for the January 6th insurrection attempt. Only Cheney, a Republican on the select committee to investigate the attack that day who emerged as a leading critic of former President Trump in the days following the incident at the Capitol, ripped Fox News Media for "giving [Carlson] a platform to spread the same type of lies that provoked violence on January 6." Today, an Exxon CEO was accused of lying to congress about climate science that he totally knew about. It is time that some of the corporate executives pay a price for lying to Congress. There is other news, like the Russian lockdown and the French-English brawl over fishing rights, but it all seems to pale over the mess in the US. Remember it could get worse, a lot worse if DDT is not locked up soon.

27 October: MASA plus 277 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Manchin is exacting his pound of flesh in exchange for any cooperation on Biden's plans to revitalize America and help diminish the wealth gap. It is not clear what will remain after Manchin gets through with it. Anti-DDT Republicans are targeting high-profile conservatives (e.g., McCarthy) in their election campaigns. DDT has vowed to unseat them in the primaries, but 9 House Republicans that voted to impeach DDT have vastly outraised campaign funding compared to their challengers. The effort to tax the ultrarich is proving difficult since the proposals of a wealth tax involve assessing unrealized gains. With stocks, this could be easy, but with art or other intangibles, it will be difficult. The Taiwan situation is heating up with the potential for disaster looming larger every day. China is launching provocations that suggest it may just attack without warning. The presence of US training troops in Taiwan makes this even more fraught if war were to start. It looks like economic growth in the US has slowed to 2% per year, which could be a sign of real trouble if inflation caused by supply chain problems persists. DDT claims he is coming to Virginia to stump for Republicans in the governor's race. This may be exactly what Democrats need to encourage them to get out and vote against Youngkin. Anything to do with DDT is toxic. Time to lock DDT up and protect democracy.

26 October: MASA plus 276 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. An agreement on Biden's agenda is slowly emerging from the fog of negotiations. There are more and more pieces that everyone can support, but the two holdouts are still the big obstacles. One thing is for sure, a certain Arizona Senator will be a one-term ladybug. It also looks as if all Democrats support a corporate minimum tax of 15% that will help pay for the rest of the bill. So, piece by piece a bill is coming together including a climate-related section. As always, the devil is in the details and the details are nowhere to be seen. Finally, the FCC will have a chairman and a Democratic majority to get things done that help and protect the public. YAY, stocks linked to DDT plunge. Of course, some have risen so far and so fast that a decline is not a problem (yet). We have had a major storm in the east just as others had it in California that caused major flooding. If you were far enough south, say, Maryland and Virginia, it was just heavy rain. Finally, children can get the Pfizer vaccine. This should ease the burden of raising a family that contains young children. As always, get your flu shots and your CVIVID shots as soon as possible. I need all the readers I can get, alive. Somewhere DDT is still lurking scheming to damage to friend a foe alike as it suits him in the moment. The only cure is to try him for his crimes and lock DDT up.

25 October: MASA plus 275 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Right now we are in a holding pattern on Biden's plan for rebuilding America, seeing how several local political races come out this November, whether DDT will start to meet his well-earned comeuppance, whether Republicans will be outvoted, whether the Supreme Court will abolish Woman's rights, and whether Bannon will go to jail for contempt. All of this, and much more, is hanging there. Today's news has little going on. Some fluff about Facebook and its rising share prices, new restrictions on US travel of the unvaccinated, inflation continues unabated and will continue as long as supply chain issues persist, politically it is gasoline prices because the increases are so obvious. YAY  Manchin is now willing to tax billionaires, which means that Democrats are much closer to passing Biden's recovery plan even in reduced form. The price of phone spam has just gone up with a hiker ignoring calls from a search team thinking that they were spam. Of course, there are more shootings with the latest in a Boise Idaho shopping mall. Germany just convicted an ISIS bride for murder (crime against humanity). The Glasgow climate change meeting is about to take place with both China and the US so far not able to make firm plans to actually reduce emissions. Other major countries are in the same boat with lots of wishful thinking. Europe in particular with the huge imports of Russian natural gas (methane). Remember that DDT and his stooges are always lurking n the background wanting to assume power and do away with inconvenient (to them) free elections. It is almost past time to try DDT and lock him up.

24 October: MASA plus 274 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's been a quiet day in most places, except Virginia where the state is being deceived by Younkin into thinking that he is going to deliver all kinds of benefits while slashing taxes and the means to have these benefits. Younkin will deliver control over schools and what is taught in spite of parents' wishes. We've seen this show before. Do not be fooled. California is being hit with a storm of historic proportions bringing excess rain, flooding, and mudslides. This is a bit ironic in the middle of a historic drought that the storm will not relieve. Pelosi is now confident that Democrats will come together and pass some form of Biden's agenda. Is this true of Manchin and Sinema? Sounds like wishful thinking but one can hope. The Alex Baldwin shooting perplexes me. Sure, he was handed a prop gun that he thought was harmless (blanks at worst) but he violated the first rule of gun safety. Never point a gun at anyone. Putting a live round in the gun was not his fault, but pointing it and pulling the trigger was all Baldwin. Turkey is n trouble after attempting to get rid of 10 envoys and watching its currency drop. The drop will have a major impact if not corrected. As always, before he metastasizes, we need to cut the cancer out of America and lock DDT up.

23 October: MASA plus 273 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Don't sit this one out Virginia, it is essential that you get out and vote, and vote to keep VA Democratic. Otherwise, you are going to go back to a DDT-type person and might even help lead DDT back into the presidency. Virginia, you need to send a message loud and clear. The new Facebook whistleblower is revealing papers that show the company is not willing to protect the public from outright lies and misinformation that might cost it some revenue. These large internet companies that operate in the US must be reined in. The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments n the Texas abomination abortion law. But, will the justices rise above personal ideology and protect personal rights? Turkey is kicking out 10 ambassadors for asking about an activist's human rights and release from prison. Erdogan runs a tight ship when it comes to press freedom. Pfizer vaccine is about to be released for young children (half dose), which will be a relief to many parents. DDT was not directly in the news today except for the internet company that he has formed using hundreds of millions of dollars of other people's money through a SPAC. If he gets his "show" on the internet, DDT will lie and fulminate. He needs to be stopped. The best way is to put DDT in jail and lock DDT up.

22 October: MASA plus 272 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The Supreme Court appears to be on the verge of overturning Roe v Wade. It is time for women to get their act together and vote Republicans out of office wherever they can. The Republican party is anti-women, anti-business, anti-honesty (when it comes to taxes and telling the truth), and anti-democratic (against our form of government). Women, it is time to come together, or just sit on your asses and wait for the dictatorship that will come for you sooner or later.  Multiple news outlets on Friday published stories based on documents provided by Frances Haugen, a Facebook whistleblower. The reports cite internal Facebook research and documents that show the company is aware of many of the harms its apps and services cause. Bottom line, Zuckerberg appears to be evil and is a dictator in his own empire. In a similar development, DDT is now well funded through a SPAC to set up his own social media website. This means that dirt and lies will proliferate unless Congress stops it by making social media somewhat responsible for what appears on their websites. The stock of the SPAC company Digital World Acquisition Corp. skyrocketed on extremely heavy trading volume after news of a merger that would launch former President Donald Trump’s planned social media platform. Lev Parnas, a former associate of Rudy Giuliani, was found guilty Friday of federal campaign finance criminal charges. Hopefully, this is the start of the unraveling of DDT. There is renewed talk of ending the filibuster rule for the Senate coming from Biden. Interesting. It looks like Europe is going to step up its defense budget in response to DDT's unreliability. This is probably a good thing both for Europe and for Biden (and the US). According to a recent poll, 2/3 of republicans think that climate change is no problem, even the ones in drought-stricken western states. Incredible! U.S. officials are keeping a close watch on the ‘delta plus’ Covid mutation as it spreads in the U.K. Just what we need, more COVID problems. It is time to start to put DDT on trial for more than civil cases. Time to convict him for bank fraud and tax evasion as well as the Georgia interference in the 2020 election. Time to lock DDT up.

21 October: MASA plus 271 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Finally, some action. The House votes to have the Justice Department prosecute Bannon for defying the order to testify, Couldn't happen to a "nicer" guy. Meanwhile, Attorney General Merrick Garland vows to apply 'facts and the law' to Steve Bannon's contempt case. The ever-reliable Susan Collins of Maine voted against the voting rights bill, claiming that it would infringe on the right of states to discriminate. She is right. Eve Putin is now on the right side of the vaccine situation raging at Russian refusal to get vaccinated. Finally, the Federal Reserve has tightened investing rules by forbidding stock purchases by officials. Given the scandals that have occurred recently, it is about time, Even though nothing hit the news today about DDT, he still remains an existential threat to American democracy (as do his Republican toadies in Congress). DDT needs to be locked up and to lose his fortune.

================================================================

20 October: MASA plus 270 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. COVID boosters in any combination are allowed. If you are eligible, get it! Get vaccinated. An important factoid: The Vikings beat Columbus to North America by almost 1500 years. The supply chain issues continue to get worse with more than 100 container ships parked in the waters off of the LA port. The ports are now going to a 24/7 work schedule and Buden is suggesting sending in the National Guard to help with labor shortages. Republicans have again blocked the voting rights bill.It is not surprising, since if everyone legally votes, Republicans will lose unless they change into a party willing to govern, not just saying no. Climate change, what climate change? Governments are set to increase the use of fossil fuels over the next decade regardless of the consequences. This will continue until millions start to die. It is pretty quiet right now except for a few elections coming up such as the Virginia governor's race between a purposeful deceiver and liar (owes his soal to DDT) and former governor McCauliff  According to polls the race is very close. Woe be to Virginia if they fall for the snake oil salesman.  In the background, DDT still lurks waiting to cause damage wherever he can. We must lock DDT up.

19 October: MASA plus 269 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT has testified that he is an ex-President under oath. That is a first for him. His normal behavior is his reaction to Colin Powel's death, disparagement. DDT is raging against the outpouring of love for Colin Powell. One thing for sure, you can count on DDT to be an ass. Bank reform has been narrowed a bit from $600 in response to furious objections from Republicans that this would severely limit the ability of their patrons to cheat on taxes. Can't have that. Even the new $10,000 limit is objectionable to Republicans. I do not have much problem with the new higher limit unless the rich find a way to exploit the law, Yay. A GOP congressman, Fortenberry, will be indicted for lying to the FBI. Now if he turns on his buddies, give him a break, but not a free pass. The headline in Yahoo news, "Manchin throws 'hand grenade' at Biden's climate change agenda for Glasgow". This is really sad that Manchin cannot see beyond his sagging chin at the plight of the planet. Climate change will really beat up his West Virginia. If Biden can pass his large rebuild America agenda it will become the new normal and people will mostly love it just as Obamacare is now part of America. In a news conference, Jen Psaki said Trump's actions posed a 'unique and existential threat to our democracy,'. I agree. The only solution is to try DDT, convict him, and lock DDT up.

18 October: MASA plus 268 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Colin Powell died from CV-19 even though fully vaccinated. His was a case where he had severe underlying conditions and was susceptible. Crucially, Powell suffered from a blood cancer known as multiple myeloma — precisely the kind of “immunocompromised” condition that leads to lower vaccine efficacy. It looks like Steve Bannon will get off from contempt charges in refusing to testify because the DOJ argued that “executive privilege can protect advice that individuals outside the executive branch give the president.”  Sad, but apparently true. It's a first! DDT completed several hours of questioning for a lawsuit that accuses his security guards of assaulting protesters outside Trump Tower in New York City in 2015.  More to come. Looks like the Fed chair traded stocks just before a stock market crash in October 2020. Not good. What was he thinking (or not thinking)? Sen. Joe Manchin is now under pressure (running ads in West Virginia) from "progressives' for his negative stand on climate change based on his ownership of coal investments. The ads accuse Manchin of not giving West Virginia up to 30,000 new long-term jobs associated with clean energy. Merck is planning to charge Americans $712 for a Covid drug whose development was subsidized by the American government and costs $18 to produce. This is typical outrageous behavior in the US for drug prices. Remember, DDT is still out there threatening to destroy democracy so that he can do whatever he damn well pleases. Democrats and Independents need to get out there and vote Republicans out of office. As for DDT, please lock him up before it is too late.

17 October: MASA plus 267 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  Let's see, it's Sunday, so it is fairly quiet except for a mass kidnapping in Haiti of American missionaries, an upcoming trial that will examine the validity of citizen's arrests in a case of the killing of an unarmed black person, the continuing denial by Manchin on the effect of climate change on West Virginia, and the very tight gubernatorial race in Virginia between a former democratic governor and a very rich business person who lies incessantly and avoids answering questions, especially those having to do with his well-known far-right leanings. The coast guard has found the container ship thought to have torn the underwater pipe that caused the oil spill in California. Stupidity still runs rampant. A Florida (where else) school is requiring students who get vaccinated to stay home for 30 days out of the fear that others might get infected with the vaccine. We have to get the country free of the DDT disease by increasing our social distance from the psychopathic miscreant. Lock DDT up and save America.

16 October: MASA plus 266 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Joe Manchin, what has gotten into you. I know your state produces coal but to be against climate change measures is stupid and self-serving. Demanding that climate change provisions be stripped from the budget bill is beyond stupid, it is evil for the country and the planet. If you cannot see beyond the end of your nose, you do not deserve to be a senator from anywhere. The Biden administration is being blamed for a court order (appealed unsuccessfully) that forced them to reinstate the wait in Mexico plan started by the DDT administration. Sometimes extreme liberals are every bit as dumb as the sound. It has been a relatively quiet day today. Lots more COVID cases and deaths, but vaccination rates are rising with over 400 million doses delivered. Of course, we still have lots of holdouts befuddled by misinformation even when well educated. The police are among the worst offenders along with some medical personnel. I hope you guys in NY and Georgia are working overtime to get DDT out of circulation. He needs his own private padded cell as soon as possible. Lock DDT up.

15 October: MASA plus 265 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden's press secretary is being accused of violating the Hatch Act forbidding campaigning as part of official duties. She said we will support Mcauliffe for Virginia governor. Wow. Careless of her. She said she will be more careful next time. Of course, this is nothing compared to the DDT administration's overt campaigning. Madness is everywhere with a British conservative (pro-Brexit) MP stabbed to death at a meeting. Biden just released part of his economic plan that included the obvious statement that climate change poses a systemic threat to the US economy. Industry needs to fully embrace this and turn against the anti-business Republicans. The stock market is up and appears to be going higher based on good employment and production news. Of course, inflation is also occurring at a fast rate, 6% so far. Sing the song. DDT went up the hill, the Republican Party to kill.  DDT came down the hill head over tail, on his way to jail. Lock DDT up.

14 October: MASA plus 264 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Finally, we have a little action. The House panel investigating Jan. 6 Capitol riot will move to refer Steve Bannon for criminal contempt and there is a subpoena for DDT to be deposed under oath about the 6 January insurrection. Let's hope this is the start of real pain for DDT and henchmen. DDT is hell-bent on destroying the Republican party unless it totally bends to his will. DDT has doubled down on Republicans not voting on 2022 and 2024. According to Reuters, "Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona is threatening to torpedo Biden's agenda, telling a group of fellow moderate Democrats in the House of Representatives that she won't support a multitrillion-dollar reconciliation package until Congress passes the $1 trillion infrastructure spending bill first. It's hard to believe that the Democrats would rather have nothing than get together and pass legislation that this country sorely needs. Biden is again trying to be reasonable saying that the vaccine mandate should not divide people while urging everyone to get the shots. LinkedIn and other social apps are withdrawing from China over censorship rules. This is a good thing for the rest of us as China isolates itself.  The only problem with isolation is that it makes China more dangerous for military misadventures. Enough for tonight. It's time to put this it "bed", You know the drill, say after me, "Put DDT on trial for fraud, election interference and insurrection, and LOCK HIM UP"

13 October: MASA plus 263 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Insanity is everywhere. Yesterday someone (in custody) in Norway killed 5 people with a bow and arrow. House lawmakers have subpoenaed a former DOJ official over alleged attempts to interrupt the DDT-Biden power transfer of the presidency.  Somewhere in here, the revelations should start to come out. DDT is now saying that Republicans will not vote n 2022 or 2024 unless the 2020 fraud is fixed. I wish that were true, then we would not have to worry about a looming dictatorship or criminal government. Natural gas and gasoline prices are rising as if there were a shortage in the US. This is clearly not the case, so what is going on? Price gouging? Time to find out and fix it. The Biden administration is starting an investigation. One of the problems with the natural gas shortage is that it is encouraging the expanded use of coal. Not good from an environmental point of view. Pakistan is reaping what they sowed. Violence is occurring between ISIS-K and the Taliban on Pakistan's soil and people are being killed. Whoa. Social Security payments are scheduled to go up 5.9% to counter the rising cost of living. This is the biggest boost in a long long time. Democrats need to pass the big infrastructure bill along with the larger public help bill even if the latter is smaller than the ultras desire. Pass this or watch the Republicans sweep the 2022 elections and the liberals will get nothing. And, they might even get another 4 years of DDT to really mess things up. Please NY and Georgia, lock DDT up ASAP.

12 October: MASA plus 262 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Only a short way through Biden's presidency and some Democrats are bitterly complaining that they did not get all they wanted and might vote for DDT in reprisal. It makes me sick to hear such whining with the Senate and House so closely divided. If they follow through on that threat it will be cutting off their noses to spite their faces. From a headline in Yahoo news, "A 'very disappointed' Pelosi and a 'frustrated' Biden confront the realities of a less ambitious domestic agenda". There are proposals to give the authority to raise the debt limit to a single person, the Treasury Secretary. Another bad idea. The World War 1 debt limit should be done away with completely. It does not limit debt and just causes an annual pissing contest. Because of two reluctant Senators, it looks like Biden's plan will have to be cut badly. The question is will it be recognizable after the cuts. If the decision were mine, I would go after keeping the medical enhancement and child care without making any cuts for those two. If there is still money left over, sure do additional things, but do them well. The 2020 election in Georgia simmers on with Fulton County finding zero false ballots. Thanks to low wages and onerous working conditions, 4.3 million workers have quit their jobs and are looking elsewhere even though the number of job openings has decreased. The multi-billion James Webb telescope has arrived at its French Guiana launch site where it will be placed on top of an Ariane 5 rocket for launch in a few months. If successful, the scientific return should be huge. Chemicals in shampoo and makeup are linked to early death, a study has found. The villain, plastic-type contaminants that are also found in food containers. The chemicals disrupt hormones and lead to strange medical problems. Now, if we can just disrupt DDT and lock him away for the rest of his political life to save America.

11 October: MASA plus 261 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Recently computer modeling has shown what will happen to coastal cities as the world warms. The picture is grim as the sea level rises. One hopes that these images will spur a stronger response to cut back on fossil fuels to limit the disaster. It's not just sea-level rise, but also extreme temperatures, drought, and disease. The real problem is that so far the models have underestimated the scope of the looming disaster as there is amplifying feedback increasing global warming from the release of carbon dioxide and methane from the high latitude regions in the Northern hemisphere, Russia, Alaska, and Canada. On the stupid front, Governor Gregg Abbot has banned vaccine mandates in Texas as a direct challenge to Biden. Two countries are experiencing a coal shortage for generating electrical power, China and India. China, partially from its ban of imports of dirty burning lignite from Australia over a political spat plus climate-change-related flooding of coal mines, and India a reduction of coal production from the effects of COVID. Coal prices hit an all-time high along with rising gasoline and energy prices in Europe and the US. At present, there are blackouts and reduced economic activity in both countries. Iran is heating up as it conducts its annual military drills and there are threats related to its nascent nuclear program. China's economy is unraveling with production decreases and with the financial fallout from its real estate market. The Republicans are still on the path to destroy the election system by gerrymandering and empowering state legislators to overturn election results. The outcome could be a disaster in 2022 and 2024. This is all backed by DDT and his tribe. It really is time to prosecute DDT and lock him up before it is too late.

 

10 October: MASA plus 260 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. As usual, the Democrats are fighting with each other. like spitting into the wind. They really need to settle down and get some of Biden's program passed. Plus, the debt ceiling is going to come up again in December. It's certainly going to be a messy few months. Afghanistan is going to be a problem again, especially if the terrorists get a foothold. More shootings all over the place, yet no one has the guts trying to reduce the huge number of guns. The 2nd amendment was never about unlimited personal gun ownership but has been perverted into that. News of a North Korean defector talking to the BBC has just surfaced giving rise to all sorts of stories about spies embedded in South Korea. Interesting to see how this unfolds. AQ Kahn, the inventor of Pakistan's nuclear weapons, has died of COVID. Just a small footnote in history. Lebanon has light again after a 1-day backout. The vaccine mandate is working with more and more people getting the shot. However, it is also causing hardship with staffing at hospitals and first responders. Deaths and new cases are declining nationwide. DDT's rally has caused problems as expected. His followers are calling for civil war. This is getting totally out of hand and must be stopped. Time to lock DDT up and throw away the key.

9 October: MASA plus 259 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The dance with China over Taiwan is growing dangerous, especially with routine Chinese incursions into Taiwan's airspace with fighter jets. A misstep would be catastrophic. DDT held a rally in Iowa on Saturday where he still maintains large support in spite of his obvious criminal behavior. I do not know how anyone can be a supporter of a would-be dictator. The Texas on again off again abortion law is a real problem. I have no faith that the current Supreme Court is going to stand up for women's rights. Think it is bad here? Lebanon has not had power for days since the 2 main state power plants have run out of fuel. On a brighter note, a recent piece of research indicates that oxygen will disappear from the Earth wiping out all recognizable forms of life. However, we have a bit of time before this happens. Right now, it is global warming, floods, famine, and superstorms that are our worry. The Facebook expose should lead to new regulations to rein in the Zuckerberg monstrosity. A person without a moral compass should never be in charge of something like Facebook. With DDT holding rallies as a prelude to a presidential campaign, the time is running out to indict and convict him of crimes both civil and criminal. DDT sorely needs to be convicted of a felony and locked up.

8 October: MASA plus 258 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The House committee investigating the 6 January attempted insurrection is considering criminal contempt charges for Steve Bannon. Sorry Steve, no pardon this time. Look at the bright side, you will make new friends on the inside. Finally, world leaders have reached an agreement on minimum corporate taxes, even Ireland.  136 countries have signed onto the accord. The top Republicans on Congress's tax committees, Rep. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), criticized the deal, saying the Biden administration "used this global forum to advance its short-sighted domestic tax agenda."  Yes, Crapo, it is better for companies to game the system and screw the US. McConnell is now vowing he and the Republicans will not help Democrats raise the debt ceiling in December and went after Schumer for complaining about McConnell calling it a "Temper Tantrum". Manchin also complained that Schumer was over the top. Manchin has some deluded idea that Republicans will suddenly find brotherly love. Keep it up Mitch. You will lose big time. Please, guys. Indict the turd and lock DDT up.

7 October: MASA plus 257 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. All hail. McConnell blinked and we now have a short-term increase in the debt limit while McConnell tries to force the Democrats to use the reconciliation mechanism to further some stupid distorted power play. Of course, DDT told McConnell, accurately, that he caved to the Democrats and he can go to the "Hot Place". DDT would have preferred that the US defaults and causes economic chaos with increased unemployment. It's all DDT and the hell with anyone else. At least for now, the insidious Texas anti-abortion law has been suspended. The 6 January insurrection committee is starting to have real teeth issuing subpoenas to acquire testimony from DDT's confidants in the White House. With no one to pardon them, they could run the real risk of jail if they do not appear. Biden has revoked DDT's desecration of the Bear Ears and Grand Staircase Escalante monuments. The more of DDT's mischief that gets undone the better. Even better will be to lock DDT up. 

6 October: MASA plus 256 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The hold-out continues with no resolution. Bernie is still pushing for the full 3.5 trillion and Manchin for 1.5 trillion with almost everyone else in the middle. Sigh. But, McConnell has agreed to a temporary increase in the debt ceiling until December. This tactic will come back and bite Republicans in the ass. COVID  continues to stalk the nation particularly in the southern states with hospital overcrowding and hospitals running out of money and staff. This is definitely natural selection at work. Talking about idiots, the Idaho lieutenant governor banned vaccine mandates while the governor was out of state on a 2-day trip. It seems that there are another 60,000 Haitian immigrants on their way to the US-Mexico border as another headache for the Biden administration. DDT is out there denying the obvious after claims that he made stupid statements to foreign leaders visiting him at the White House. Doesn't the idiot know that this stuff is recorded? Since the big moves are all still hanging, it is time to put today behind us except for one thing. Georgia and NY. lock DDT up before it is too late.

5 October: MASA plus 255 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. There seems to be some movement among hold-out Democrats about compromise. Manchin is still holding out for a skimpy 1.5 trillion do everything half-baked amount. So, it is not clear what the final form will be. The stock market boomed today partially recovering a part of the recent losses. All is hanging in the balance including the debt ceiling. The Pandora papers are slowly playing out as the newspapers reveal more and more. Today it was largely about looted treasures whose ownership was hidden in the offshore accounts.  DDT has fallen. Yes, fallen but not far enough. He's fallen off the Forbes top 400 list for the first time in 25 years. It is time for him to fall further and become the richest man in prison. Yes, it is time to lock him up.

4 October: MASA plus 254 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Finally, Biden blasts McConnell, Manchin, and Sinema for the debt ceiling lack of action and for the resistance to his agenda. McConnell is as anti-America as you can get without being DDT himself. Between Grisham's tell-all and other books revealing a lot, DDT is taking it on the chin, especially now that he lost a court case on his overbroad non-disclosure agreements. More will come out now. Former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman in an interview that aired Sunday suggested former President Trump may not be in good enough physical condition to run for president again in 2024. We can only wish. Amazingly, DDT is not in the Pandora files, yet. I'll be amazed if he is not tucked in there sneakily under someone else's name. And then there is Francis Hagen, the Facebook whistleblower who revealed a lot on the show 60-minutes and now more in additional papers, she has shared with news organizations. No question, Facebook and Zuckerberg are coming off as evil, choosing profits over safety. Today, for some reason, Facebook was offline along with its other services (for example Instagram). Now it is back.  Biden has now agreed to means testing, which should have been there in the first place. Giving the same government help to people making over $150,000 makes no sense. The Supreme Court is starting a new term with major cases on its agenda ranging from abortion to voting rights.If the court acts ideologically, it could spell the end of the 9-Justice court as we know it. This would be a major change, but necessary if the majority stops trusting the court to be neutral. Employers are more and more requiring vaccination and firing those who refuse. Whether or not Omarosa Manigault Newman is right about DDT's health, we should not take a chance. If elected again, DDT will be out for revenge, and the country be damned. It is time to try him and lock DDT up.

3 October: MASA plus 253 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today is the day of Pandora, not the jewelry, but the papers indicating the tax havens for the rich and well-connected. This could be a bigger scandal than the notorious Panama papers. These also are the secret dealings of world leaders, including DDT's friend Putin. 35 current and former leaders and more than 300 public officials are featured in the files. Our idiot Sanders is urging his regressive members of congress to stand firm and risk everything just to satisfy his ego. You can just see the results in 2022 if Sanders gets his way. Nothing will get done and republicans will be back in power in Congress. This is exactly what McConnell wants and the hell with the country. And, then there is the Senator from Arizona, Sinema, who only wants what is good for herself. She wants the infrastructure bill but not the larger bill to repair the nation. Republicans in charge will be the price and even the return of DDT. Is it worth it, Sanders? Tonight on 60-Minutes a former Facebook product manager revealed herself as the whistleblower who leaked a trove of company research, causing Facebook to be in crisis. This will now be food for Federal regulators. Basically, the documents show that Facebook knew the harm it was doing but Zukerberg did not give a damn. This is especially true with Instagram and the harm it does to young people. With Sanders and ilk causing stubborn doom, DDT must be stopped. Lock him up.

2 October: MASA plus 252 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Pelosi has shifted the infrastructure bill deadline to 31 October leaving most democrats and many Republicans frustrated. I am surprised that Pelosi has not tried the ultimate weapon on the so-called "Progressives". Either get in line for the Biden legislation or resign yourself to get nothing. Pelosi is too much of a "do what is good for the United States" type person to do that, at least not yet. Senator Krysten Sinema is disappointed at the delay of the vote on the infrastructure bill all the while refusing to vote yes on the larger part of Biden's rebuild America bill, which contains drug price control language. This would interfere with her campaign bribing funds from the drug industry. Today, the US set another milestone as COVID deaths surpassed 700,000 as cases increase rapidly. Hopefully, the new treatment will slow the carnage down. Here we go again. DDT is asking a federal judge in Florida to force Twitter to restore his account of lies. He needs to be silenced. Taiwan is getting really upset at Chinese fighter jets overflying the island. This could get dangerous in a hurry. As always, DDT is bent on mischief and needs to be locked up

1 October 2021: MASA plus 252 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Good news for a change. There is a pill-form drug to treat COVID-19 manufactured by Merck with two more to follow from other companies. Tests show it is quite effective at preventing hospitalization and death if taken within 5 days of onset of symptoms. Even so, vaccination is the preferred and first line of defense. The cost of a 5-day treatment to the federal government is about $800, not cheap. On the infrastructure and larger bills to remake America, Biden is urging patience as he negotiates with the set of Democratic reluctants. He certainly is going to get no help from Republicans who also refuse to help on raising the debt ceiling. A political cartoon showed McConnell rubbing his hands together while laughing Heh Heh Heh. He would rather sink US credibility than lift a finger to save the nation from default. It's a mess out there. In the background DDT is fulminating the means to his regaining presidential power to further drive the country into some kind of bandit capitalistic structure with himself as dictator. He must be stopped. Lock DDT up.

30 September: MASA plus 251 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. OK. McConnell blinked and the government will not be furloughed. The House passed the stop-gap funding and this will now go to Biden to sign it. It is not "Mission Accomplished" but is a bit of sanity in running the country. Next comes the debt ceiling and Biden's plans for rebuilding America. Manchin has finally come out with a number. It's small but not zero. It's 1.5 trillion, which should get some things started and hopefully will lead to a Democratic blowout in 2022. Then Manchin will not be needed. At least in Manchin's case, one can understand his West Virginia case. The same is not true of the Senator from Arizona Kyrsten Lea Sinema who has sold out to lobbyists for campaign contributions, big ones. The people who elected her are so mad that the democratic party in Arizona is disowning her. Too bad there is not a way to do a recall. She is blatant about her disregard for her voters. California is enacting broad positive changes. A statewide eviction moratorium, a ban on power shutoffs, and an expanded paid sick leave program. (Its ban on water shutoffs, also originally set to end today, was recently extended through Dec. 31.) Starting today: California health care workers must be fully vaccinated or face consequences. Now the rest of the country needs to follow California. DDT us still fighting about his small hands (ha ha) and called Biden's press secretary to complain both about size and shape. He's out there campaigning, NY, shut him down and lock DDT up.

29 September: MASA plus 250 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I am exhausted waiting for tomorrow holding my breath to see if Congress will keep the government open. And, then of course there is the debt limit. As for DDT. Lock DDT up.

BAN DDT

===================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

28 September: MASA plus 249 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Bernie Sanders is actually asking his followers to "tank" the infrastructure bill if it is brought up for a vote. The more I see of these Regressives (Progressives) the less I like them. If they do not get their act together they will get nothing except McCarthy for Speaker of the house in 2022. One of the columnists pointed out that Bide's 3.5 trillion dollar bill should be relabeled as 350 billion per year. Then it would sound smaller and so-called moderates could vote for it.  Two of the "moderate" Senators, Sinema and Manchin met with Biden today. I hope he chewed their butts off. That's funny. Apparently, DDT told Putin that he would act tough for the cameras and that he, Putin, should ignore the act. Also, it has been reported that DDT refused anesthesia for a colonoscopy to avoid giving Vice President power for even a few minutes. Damn idiot. More funny stuff. McConnell is accusing the Democrats of playing politics as the Republicans block the bill to end a government shutdown. It's too bad we can't recall McConnell for obstruction. In response to all of this, the stock market fell by 2% today. In North Carolina, the hospital system fired 175 employees for refusing vaccination. Perhaps becoming homeless will focus their minds. And, United Airlines laid off 600 employees for refusing vaccination. While Jupiter's giant red spot is speeding up, the US is slowing down and may completely stop. Off on the sidelines, DDT is applauding his Republican obstructionists and slavering at the idea of becoming a dictator in 2024. Republicans must be destroyed in 2022 and DDT locked up.

27 September: MASA plus 248 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The screw America Party (Republicans) have struck again by blocking the funding of the government in the Senate. These anti-Americans need to be driven out of government at the ballot box. It is time to get rid of these bootlicking fools and replace them with people with backbones and a sense of pride in the United States. Being stupidly stubborn does not constitute being able to stand up straight. And of course, we have the Democrat "Progressives" who seem to want Republican control and eventually DDT back in power rather than compromise. Our way or the highway is childish and destructive. Governor Newsome has just signed a bill making mail-in voting permanent in California. This needs to be universal for the whole country. A Fox News host just got pilloried for reporting on the Arizona recount and reporting that it showed Biden won.  Just when you think DDT was really bad, Mike Pompeo, DDT, and officials requested ‘options’ for killing Julien Assange following WikiLeaks’ publication of CIA hacking tools, a new report says. Now you know it was worse than you imagined. DDT cannot be allowed to get in again. OK, it could be worse. The Taliban has just issued an edict outlawing barbers trimming beards as un-Islamic. This crew is just as bad as the old crew. China is all worked up about a British warship sailing through International waters near Taiwan, claiming that the Brits had "evil intentions". Ford is building several huge manufacturing plants in the US to make electric vehicles. This is really good news and follows GM's moves. Speaking of evil intentions, DDT is really undermining our democracy as he pivots to a campaign mode attacking everything and everyone that does not support his lies and fantasies. New York, we need to you put DDT on trial and lock him up.

 

26 September: MASA plus 247 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is the end of September already with winter just around the corner. Somehow the COVID partial quarantine has made the summer days vanish without a sound. I'll miss being outdoors as much as during the Spring and Summer. COVID is causing havoc, but mostly among the stupid refuseniks. Perhaps this is natural selection at work. I do feel sorry for medical personnel working their butts off to save them. Read an article in the NYT about COVID testing companies way overcharging because the laws were written so badly that they could charge whatever they want and insurance companies have to pay. There is pushback. SAM is coming, but forecasters are not sure where this category 4 and perhaps category-5 storm is going to hit. Stay tuned and keep dry. Today Woodward quoted Linsey Graham telling DDT "you F'd-up your presidency" just after the election results came in. Since then Grham has had severe back problems from endlessly bending over with his tongue hanging out at boot level. DDT is out campaigning spinning lies and false accusations as the start for him regaining power. He must be stopped at all costs at the ballot box. The 2022 election will be a test case to see if Democrats can derail the bootlickers. DDT lost no time praising the horse riders at the Southern border rounding up Haitians like animals.  DDT has no morals, no ethical center, just avarice and hunger for power. Once he starts campaigning for the presidency after November 2022, it will be harder to stop him. Lock DDT up before it is too late.

25 September: MASA plus 246 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Other than DDT being furious at the Arizona audit outcome (DDT lost by more than the original count), everything is pretty quiet this Saturday night. Well, not quite, Beto O'Rouke is angry at Biden's handling of 10,000 Haitians at the US border arriving here under the false impression that entry into the US was almost automatic under Biden. What does Beto expect?  That we just open borders and allow anyone entry. Yes, the horse riders made a really bad impression that Biden stopped immediately upon being informed. Given what is happening in South and Central America, driven by climate change, is only going to make the long-term problem worse. And, of course the US is having its own drought problems in the west. Lack of water and food is going to make an impossible problem for the US and Europe in the next few years. We may already be past the point of no return given the positive feedback from the Arctic regions (huge inputs of methane and CO2 driven by increasing temperatures and drought). Just think if DDT gets back in power again and opts out of climate control, it can even get worse. The first step is to convict DDT for the crimes the idiot has committed and lock DDT up.

24 September: MASA plus 245 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Sam is still churning out in the Atlantic and predicted to grow into a sizeable hurricane. Of course, if the government shuts down no one will know except the European weather service. DDT is furious. The Cyber Ninjas (Arizona fake audit) found that DDT really did lose. So much for that bogus effort. Lots of Arizona money was spent for zero results. Biden wants to tax wealthy persons paper gains in investments. What happens in years when they lose money? Does the federal government refund taxes? It sure will make things complicated. It looks like Biden may owe back taxes on his book and speaking proceeds through the use of S-corporations. Too complicated for here. North Korea just made a peace offering. They will end the long-standing war since 1953 if South Korea does exactly what the North wants. How generous. Biden is not going to shield the 6 January documents of that president in name only, DDT. I hope something juicy is in there. UhOh. Costco has declared a toilet paper shortage and placed limits on how much you can buy.  Hmmmmm. Another run on supplies?  There is no end to stupid people's insanity. Now antivaccination groups are pushing people in hospital ICUs to leave and try home remedies for COVID. This includes the use of dangerous drugs. No wonder they love DDT. He is one of them and they know it. The only difference is that DDT  can usually buy his way out of the consequences of his stupidity. Hopefully, NY will not be so easy. Hurry up and lock DDT up and don't take dough for an answer.

23 September: MASA plus 244 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. This time it is in Oklahoma. Thirteen people were shot 2 killed. Just another shooting. La di da. Who cares. We have too many people as it is. Think of the savings on Social Security and Medicare. Who needs gun control when we have such a popular means of population control so easily at hand. The administration is preparing for another Republican-led shutdown of the country. It's probably a good thing. A little extra vacation thrown in for free. This works as long as you do not need anything that the government normally supplies, like a paycheck. Weather predictions? Who needs NOAA when we have TV for weather forecasts. Oh, wait, they get that information from NOAA's National Weather Service for free. Another hurricane, SAM, is headed towards the US bringing much-needed rain to the east coast. Perhaps enough to wash DeSantis out to sea. It would funny if not so serious, the so-called liberals are viewing the huge Biden bill of $3.5 trillion as the minimum, while most Democrats are looking at it as the maximum. The liberals are going to get nothing if they keep playing badly in their selfish kiddie sandbox. DDT is at it again, demanding that Texas governor Abbott back an election audit looking for fraud. An investigating panel for the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol just sent subpoenas to four former advisers to former President Trump, including chief of staff Mark Meadows and strategist Steve Bannon. Perhaps this is the start. Peel away the skin and get to the banana. So far the process is agonizingly slow. Just convict and lock DDT up.

22 September: MASA plus 243 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Guess what. Super surprise. DDT is suing the New York Times for releasing some details of his income taxes to the public. The lawsuit is about nothing except as an attempt to "change the subject", a distraction for his upcoming likely indictment on tax and bank fraud charges. If I remember, the suit is for $100 million against the paper and one of his sisters. If they carry through with the suit, DDT could be deposed under oath, which for DDT would be a big joke. The biggest joke going around right now is that the Democrats seem to be counting on McConnell to fold at the last minute on the debt ceiling and the US government budget. This is a waste of effort. Change the rules and pass them yourself and let McConnell swing in the breeze. France has restored its ambassador to the US and perhaps even rescheduled that party to cavalierly dismissed just a few days ago. You know they were serious when they canceled a party. The Haitian influx is so great that it is overwhelming the deportation airlift. There simply are not enough planes. The other thing that the Senate is bogged down on is any idea of police reform. The discussions ended without any compromise.The only way to reform the Republicans is to give them a real drubbing in 2022 across the board, Senate, House, and state elections. That would break them free from the trance they are in with DDT. As for DDT himself, well lock him up as soon as possible.

21 September: MASA plus 242 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The House has done it. They have passed a bill that suspends the debt limit for almost 2 years and prevents a government shutdown. The problem, as always, is in the Senate, where McConnell likes to play for power regardless of the harm it does to the country. The man has no moral center. A pure opportunist. He should be thrown out of his position by fellow Republicans, but that would presuppose that those bozos had a moral center. We know that is not true. The Republican Party has become the party of opportunists and cowards. So, no help there on passing the House bill or in getting rid of McConnell as a leader. The Haitian problem is growing in spite of Biden's efforts to fly 1000 per day back to Haiti. The big problem is that almost all of them have not lived in Haiti for years. Most are from Chile, Peru, Colombia, and other South American Countries and are trying to come here for economic reasons because they heard an unfounded rumor that Biden was going to let anyone in. England has a new scandal. BoJo has come out and admitted that he has 6 children. The man does get around. Biden gave a speech at the UN and marked the first time in 20 years that the US is not at war. This should be a cause for celebration. He also pleaded for cooperation on climate change. The US is taking significant steps. One can only hope that others, China, in particular, will also do their part. Texas Governor Abbott signed another anti-abortion bill into law today that limits the use of abortion-inducing drugs to 7 weeks into pregnancy. If you are a woman living in Texas, buy those drugs now and put them in your medicine cabinet. DDT is still pushing the fake election fraud theme and getting counties, even where he won, to consider recounts. His main goal is to undermine faith in the election system. That man needs to be put away. Lock DDT up

20 September: MASA plus 241 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The debt ceiling looms and McConnel is playing politics with the issue. He is trying to force the Democrats to pass a debt ceiling removal on their own so as to be able to use the issue during the 2022 election. Given the Republican combination of spending and tax cuts during the DDT administration, this will backfire. Democrats will hang out Republicans to dry in the wind. Pelosi has a bill to fund the government until December 2021 and to suspend the debt ceiling until the end of 2022. The Senate can pass that one by simple majority. The Haitian illegal immigration crisis keeps getting worse with more and more trying to cross the border. Flying them back to Haiti seems cruel when many have not lived in Haiti for years. Flying them back to where they started from would be better if possible. At least Biden is trying to stem the flow. Good news. Both Pfizer and Moderna are reading a new vaccine that is targeted at the Delta variant. At least one, Pfizer, may be ready in 100 days. According to a possible new book, there was a meeting in Washington, D.C. in 2019 where Facebook's founder Mark Zuckerberg agreed to not fact-check political posts if the Trump administration would steer clear of any “heavy-handed regulations,” (source Peter Thiel). If so, just what we need, another scandal that needs to be remediated by legislation governing these types of social media paltforms. More shootings of students, this time at Heritage High School in Newport News Virginia. We definitely need more uncontrolled guns loose in public. DDT's family is protesting the subpoenas being issued related to the various crimes and frauds perpetrated by the family and the head cheese. It really is time to pull the trigger and lock DDT up.

19 September: MASA plus 240 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I wrote a paragraph yesterday, but it seems to have disappeared. Now if only DDT could disappear. Lock him up.

===================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

18 September: MASA plus 239 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. While I am sure there are others, two big things happened today. The first is that the Biden administration is taking action concerning the influx of Haitians and second a Texas doctor has performed an abortion in violation of the new Texas State law and openly admitted it. If any citizen steps forward and sues in order to collect the $10,000, then the law can be contested in court. Whether you agree or disagree with these two items, change is underway. The House "Progressive" Caucus is threatening to block the infrastructure bill if they don't get their way on the larger budget bill. It's blatant blackmail and likely to lose for everyone. Another big item is in Russia where the fix is in for elections with the current ruling party making sure by every means possible (arrests, murder, fraud, intimidation, ballot stuffing) that they will win overwhelmingly. After all, who would want to give up that super-rich lifestyle and power just because you cannot win elections? We could have the same thing here, just elect morally corrupt Republicans and followers of DDT. The US France tiff is getting blown out of proportion. From what I have read, the French screwed up the Australian acquisition of 12 subs by having production problems and offering inferior equipment. It's worse than this single sentence. Basically, the French got caught with their hand in the Australian cookie jar and are now pissed. California's new housing law may solve a real crisis but sure will make a lot of people mad as multiple-family dwellings are built where before only single-family homes were allowed. Today's protest about arrests during the 6 January tourist visit to the capital (violent insurrection) was a quiet bust. One hopes this signifies a waning of the ghost of DDT. A $100 million loan on Trump-Tower has been placed on a possible bad loan list because of the number of vacancies. Foreclose and sell the dump, then it will make money again. Post White House expenses for DDT and family have cost $1.7 million so far this year and will continue year after year. There is a way to save money here. Convict DDT of the crimes he has committed then lock him up in much lower-cost housing. Would the Secret Service agents have to be locked up with him? Doesn't matter. Lock DDT up now.

17 September: MASA plus 238 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. France, in a fit of pique, just recalled its ambassador to the US and to Australia. The submarine deal really got to them. The original deal that France offered Australia was for older more primitive diesel submarines that were coming in over cost and underperforming. It's like California or Russia selling Champaign. The Pentagon has admitted that a drone strike in Afghanistan was a mistake and that no terrorists were involved, only civilians. The big news at the border is thousands of Haitian migrants arriving at the Texas border. Needless to say, Abbott is beside himself as is the overwhelmed federal DHS. Newsome signed a bill in California that will go a long way to alleviate the housing crises by removing some zoning restrictions on single-family dwellings. Tik-Tok clips issued a challenge online that led to the destruction of Chicago school bathrooms. Instagram is causing body-shaming among teenagers. And the unholy Facebook has become a font of lies and false information. It is time to abandon these media since the only thing they understand is their bottom line.  Booster shots are authorized for the elderly and immune-compromised. It's about time. There is no overt news from DDT. I am still waiting NY for you to take overy action to indict and convict that bum. Lock DDT up.

16 September: MASA plus 237 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. France is so mad about the submarine deal between the US and Australia that it is taking the sparkle out of Perrier and canceling a gala party in DC. The good thing is that the Chinese have expressed outrage. I have to admit that the US appears to have blindsided France, but the Australians had their hand in this too. Biden is set to outline raising taxes on higher earners by going after the top 1%.  Lately, the border migration crisis has been pushed out of the news, but it has continued unabated. Texas is now fighting with the Biden administration about shutting down so-called Ports of Entry.  If you can imagine it, think of the giant sequoia trees in California wrapped in aluminum foil to help ward off flames. I hope it works. It's amazing how stupid people refuse vaccination and then clog up hospital facilities as they are dying, which prevents others from obtaining medical care for heart attacks and other emergencies. This has led to rationing in the west (Idaho for example) An unhinged Newsmax Host Cuts Off and Yells at Veteran for Mildly Criticizing DDT “Cut him off, please. Cut him off now!” Stinchfield shouted, pointing a finger at the camera. “You’re not going to blame this on DDT on my show!”. Of course, he is no more unhinged than his idol, DDT. it's time to get rid of DDT and all his stooges. Lock DDT up.

15 September: MASA plus 236 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term.  No blog tonight. More tomorrow. Still lock the monster up.

14 September: MASA plus 235 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. As of this writing, it is still too close to call according to CNBC, but Newsome has a strong lead of votes counted. However, Republicans seem to only believe in elections when they win. Losing is "obviously" fraud. Oh Goody. DDT is calling for General Milley to be fired and tried for Treason because he gave assurances that out of control DDT was not going to attack China when the Chinese military was getting very nervous at DDT's erratic personality. Tropical storm Nicholas is flooding New Orleans. Just what they need. Anyone with brains would move out of those areas of our father of perpetual floods. Manchin is trying desperately to get a voting rights bill acceptable to Republicans through the senate. It's a pretty watered-down version,  but I bet Republicans will not get behind any change that enables voting. OMG. We have a new rally coming up in DC. They are putting up protective fences again to keep those peaceful 6 January critters out of congress. Once is enough.  AOC got caught with her slip showing by attending a 30,000 dollar per person event in NYC wearing a dress that said, "Tax the Rich". This was a stupid move in that even a free ticket might be equivalent to an illegal contribution. Let's see how this one plays out. It's horrible, hundreds of dolphins were slaughtered in North Atlantic as the hunt sparks a debate on 400-year-old traditions near Faeroe. DDT sounding off about General Milley as described in a book about his unstable last days in office and calling for treason should be enough to make us want DDT to be locked up for his crimes against taxes, banks, and investors. Lock DDT up.

13 September: MASA plus 234 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today will be a short paragraph while I wait for the outcome of the Newsome recall vote. I hope it fails. Failure will be another repudiation of DDT. It looks like there is resistance among the House and Senate Democrats to raising taxes.  One of the proposals is to limit the use of IRA conversions to Roth IRAs to prevent the very and fairly rich people from gaming the system and avoiding taxes. One person turned a 2000 dollar account into 5 billion over a period of about 20 years. The profits will all be tax-free. Others are not quite so egregious, but certainly significant. A Texas judge has blocked the anti-abortion people from enforcing the law. I guess the Supreme Court will have to weigh in again and hopefully not embarrass itself. Amusing, a DDT crony admitted that he lies (Tucker Carlson) if cornered. Just like his god, DDT.  Hurry NY Lock DDT up.

12 September: MASA plus 233 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Tuesday is Gavin Newsome day, the day when we will know the results of the California recall election. For the sake of Schadenfreude, it might be ok for Newsome to lose and have Larry Elder lead California off a cliff. Novak Djokovic lost the US Open to Daniil Medvedev 6-4, 6-4, 6-4, a rout. More rain is coming for the Gulf region. Eventually, the people living there will get the message and move elsewhere. Senator Manchin seems to forget that his first obligation is the US as a whole and not just his state. He is claiming that he cannot vote for the Biden 3.5 trillion package that would vastly improve health care, bring down the cost of college, add pres-school, provide food for hungry poor people, and make the rich and corporations pay their fair share of taxes. Sounds revolutionary and necessary. DDT is back on the rigged thing again with his stint as a boxing announcer. I guess his favorite did not win so it must be rigged. It is past time to get rid of that crooked idiot. NY lock him up,

11 September: MASA plus 232 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is hard for me to think that 20 years have gone by since the airplane attacks on the World Trade Center buildings, the Pentagon, and the brave souls that forced the 4th plane down in an empty field. I certainly remember that blue sky day and the sight of smoke from the Pentagon and the chaos on TV. I still remember being in the WTC years before up at the top in the restaurant. It is hard for me to reconcile the two views. George Bush gave a powerful speech on 9/11 and the extent of domestic terrorism. Bush may not have been the sharpest tack in the box as president, but he was not an evil person during his stint as president nor after. He did some things pushed by his advisors and his vice president, Cheney, that were not smart. Most notably his handling of Iraq after winning the war and getting us into Afghanistan on an extended basis with no clear goal. His handling of Iraq on the advice of Rumsfeld and Cheney was a disaster that we are living with today. Biden made appearances at the 9/11 sites along with Obama and Clinton with a display of sympathy for the losses and a display of unity. For DDT, he visited NYC while voted absent but used the day to bash Biden for his own interests. The man has no moral center, just a gaping empty hole containing his ego. This coming week is the Newsome recall election that he is expected to win easily. Let's hope the polls are right. Already the lead Republican is preparing fraud charges following his beloved, DDT. It is time that DDT is put on trial and made to pay for any criminal activity. Lock DDT up.

10 September: MASA plus 231 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Tomorrow is the anniversary of 9/11. a day that all of us remember and a day that changed America. After 20 years, we still worry about international terrorism and now even more about domestic terrorists, especially the bunch of thugs that attempted the January insurrection in the capital. Biden is getting brave and forceful putting in a mandate on vaccines scaring the pants off of republicans that he might actually pull this country out of the pandemic and turn the economy around. Part of this will be if the Justice Department can stop the Texas abortion law. Texas lawmakers apparently hate women, it's time they fought back. Afghanistan is going the way of the worst predictions with brutal crackdowns on everyone that does not agree with them or is female. Aside from the Taliban and Biden taking strong principles stands, it was pretty quiet. The Israelis recaptured two of the six escaped Palestinian prisoners. Oh, I almost forgot the California recall election. Newsome got really upset and blasted DDT and Lary Elder over their California election fraud claims. It's a replay of the undemocratic anti-US ploys that DDT tried to employ in 2020. The same as yesterday, the idiotic DDT needs to be put in jail for his criminal activities, of course after a fair trial.

9 September: MASA plus 230 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Missed a day. Was not feeling well and got very tired. One of DDT's henchmen pleaded guilty to election fraud and is awaiting sentencing. No pardon for him. Tired or not, DDT belongs in jail.

8 September: MASA plus 229 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Predictions are for Afghanistan to be a haven for terrorists again and Gavin Newsome to remain governor of California. His main opponent, Larry Elder, running as a Republican Of course one has nothing to do with the other. Funny-sad is Texas Governor Abbott's claim that the new antiabortion law will end rape. Janet Yellen, Treasury Secretary, is warning Congress about the need to raise the debt ceiling sooner than expected as the extraordinary measures put in place temporarily will rin out soon. YAY  Former DDT appointees such as Kellyanne Conway and Sean Spicer are getting kicked off of military academy boards. It's about time. Jimmy Kimmel, the late-night comedian, has suggested that hospitals top treating the unvaccinated as a form of punishment. Sounds absurd, but he has a point. Another day another tropical storm, this time Mindy threatening the Florida panhandle. More floods. Still do not believe in climate change? There are still fools out there in denial. Biden's plan to have 40% of US power from solar and wind is looking good. United Airlines is mandating unpaid leave for those refusing to get vaccinated based on religious exemptions. Sounds like a good plan for everyone else. On the other side, employees of Henry Ford Health System are suing to stop a vaccine mandate. Winners?  The lawyers as always. DDT is backing primary runoffs against Senators that bucked the current crazy Republican Party, Liz Cheney being the prime target. That's all we need is a second Greene in the Congress. Time to lock DDT up and save America.

 

===================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

7 September: MASA plus 228 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden is asking Congress for billions in emergency funds for disaster relief and funds for Afghan resettlement. Let's see if he gets either or both. The crazy city of Portland, Oregon is banning purchasing goods and services from Texas or employee travel to Texas. I would be impressed except for the mess that is Portland with all its warring parties. In response, a Texas leader called Portland a "dumpster fire", which is sort of correct. Interesting, As the Southern Hemisphere heads into Spring, their number of COVID cases are dropping sharply. Unfortunately, as the Northern Hemisphere heads into winter, the opposite is happening here. Texas Governor Abbott is calling a 3rd special session starting on 20 September to tackle more controversial subjects, redistricting, restrictions on transgender people, and legislation about dealing with COVID (ban mask mandates). Garland as AG in the justice Department is pondering ways to block Texas on the abortion issue, but there is apparently not much he can do by himself on voting rights. the Miami Herald went after DeSantis calling him a Profile in Selfishness. Quite apt. The Taliban has announced an interim government headed by ultra-conservative religious people and in one case an individual branded a major terrorist by the US. I t does not look good. Meanwhile, US citizens are still stuck in Afghanistan with the State Department disavowing responsibility. Biden needs to straighten this out. DDT has not done much today that hit the news, but as always he presents a clear and present danger to American democracy. DDT needs to be locked up for at least a decade.

6 September: MASA plus 227 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today is Labor Day, a holiday in the US while the rest of the world continues to work. Even in the US, some things happen. Among the things that happened is an announcement from Merrick Garland (AG) saying that the Department of Justice Department DOJ will continue to protect Texas women seeking abortions. There seems to be legislation in place for the DOJ to actively do something once some Texas vigilante attempts to sue a doctor, nurse, or clinic. The law is an old one enacted to prevent the activities of the KKK right after the civil war, but that applies to anyone denying civil rights. Of course,  I have no idea of what tactics Garland will use. There is a tragedy in the making as the extra unemployment benefits put into place during the pandemic are terminated today. I am not sure why the Biden administration made today a hard cutoff instead of reducing the benefit gradually over a period of say 3 months.  Sanity reigns. A judge ruled that West Chester Hospital cannot be compelled to administer ivermectin to a COVID-19 patient against a doctor's judgment. Six Palestinian prisoners tunneled their way out of an Israeli prison and escaped causing considerable embarrassment. We now have the Mu variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus found in all states that seems to be able to get around the antibodies created by the vaccines and prior infections. Just what we need. If the Mu variant gets going is is back to square one for everyone. As always, I am waiting for New York or any other judicial power to arrest and put DDT on trial. DDT needs to be locked up, soon.

5 September: MASA plus 226 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Finally, normalcy again. The Taliban is acting the way it is supposed to act, brutally. They are now holding hostages on chartered planes wanting to leave Afghanistan and are suppressing women as they always have. The Republicans may have just shot themselves in the crotch thanks to Texas and the vigilante anti-abortion law taking all the conversation away from Afghanistan and the budget problems. If you have things to do, do them now, since astronomers have figured that our sun has only 10 billion years left. Vaccine boosters (Pfizer) are to start on 20 September according to Fauci. We have a new hurricane churning to the US east coast following the path that Sandy took a number of years ago, north into the Atlantic Ocean, and then a sharp left turn (west) into New Jersey and New York. Texas Governor Abbott is losing popularity at more than 52% think he stinks. DDT is now taking credit for the anti-abortion fiasco since he appointed the right-wing judges with an agenda. Between his leading an insurrection, plundering the environment, negotiating a lousy deal with the Taliban, and causing a huge national debt by reducing taxes for the rich and corporations, he needs to be put out of our misery. Lock DDT up and throw away the key.

4 September: MASA plus 225 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The drama that is Texas and Florida has not stopped. Now there are apps online that you can use to interfere with the Texas vigilante state. Tik Tok users and hackers flooded the Texas abortion site with fake tips. Good for them. Of course, the only real solution is to vote the anti-American Republicans out of office. Nowadays the only good Republican is one that is out of office. Strong rumor has it that DDT is going to run again in 2024. This would be a disaster for America unless he gets really trounced. Get out there in 2022 and vote Republicans out so that the voting rights laws can be fixed. The Taliban is starting to show its true old colors by beating women who tried to protest being excluded from the workforce. This is where the economic sanctions can work to force the Taliban to be much more inclusive and much less abusive in order to get foreign assistance in running the country. Who said that insanity is a bad thing, Tucker Carlson the renowned demagogue and bully actually praised Biden for stopping an endless war. Have no fear, good old Tucker will be back with calumny and abuse. Otherwise, he would die of intellectual starvation after living so long on a pure sugar high. It's the weekend so things are relatively quiet. The only big news is the possible announcement that DDT will run for president again in 2024. Let's see how he campaigns from jail. Lock DDT up

3 September: MASA plus 224 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Texas is showing us what an out-of-control state can look like. A state where it is now legal to carry a gun on your person without a license or permit or any training, and where it is increasingly difficult to vote unless you live in a rural small town. Texas is becoming a minority rule state with the majority disenfranchised. Unfortunately, other states are copying Texas. Pretty soon you really will have two Americas. One part ruled by an increasingly evil Republican Party bent on keeping itself in power against the will of voters. And, of course, the antiabortion bill affecting women's ability to control their lives even in cases of rape or incest. Texas, and six other states modeling after Texas, are becoming vigilante states with a bounty on anyone perceived guilty. It's horrible. At least UBER is offering its drivers to pay for legal expenses if sued.  Voters, arise, especially women, and throw the evil bums out. If you want a dictatorship, vote Republican and don't complain, at least where you can be overheard. Finally, Biden has ordered the declassification of 9/11 papers so that victim's families can get a better idea of exactly what lead to the terror attacks. In New Zealand, a known terrorist being watched 24/7 by police managed to go into a store, grab a knife from a display case, and stab 6 people before being killed by police within 1 minute. Why such a person was allowed to run free is not imaginable to me. The Delta variant continues to rampage and is badly affecting the economy as shown in the reduced number of jobs created this month, only a quarter of last month, and in reduced travel, especially for the upcoming holiday. The new cases are overwhelming hospitals, especially in the South. Hurricane Ida has caused major damage in the Northeast with a number of deaths reported from flooding. In New York City there was major flooding of roads, subways, and basement apartments. This was the worst ever. Once again, DDT has been quiet in the news but still should be locked up just to protect the nation.

2 September: MASA plus 223 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. We are now back to messing with the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. Manchin is using his position as a critical vote in the Senate to slow things down and perhaps stop the bill. New York has been flooded with water from Hurricane Ida and Tik Tok flooded in Texas by fake reports about abortions and other memes. It would be funny if the Republican attack on women's freedom were not so serious. Biden essentially blew a gasket at the Supreme Court's action supporting anti-abortion legislating. It looks like Governor Newsome in California is going to survive the recall election. The new Mu variant of COVID may be resistant to the current vaccines. If so, this will be a major problem for everyone. DDT has been interfering in the Virginia governor's election with lies about election fraud. He will keep this up throughout the elections season. Time to lock DDT up.

1 September 2021: MASA plus 223 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Ann Coulter, a very right-wing commentator gave Biden a sort of compliment saying he had the guts (she used a different word) to withdraw. it's over. Now, one can hope that the Taliban will form some kind of reasonable government and work to get rid of ISIS in Afghanistan. The cost estimate of being in Afghanistan was given as $300 million per day for a total of $2.26 trillion, plus the long-term rehabilitation costs for the physically and mentally wounded. The Sackler family is getting off lightly for pushing opioids on the public and making billions. They are only paying 4.5 billion and have to give up the company. This still leaves them rich and immune from further legal problems. Not a bad escape for unleashing a scourge on innocent people. They should be in jail. Texas has just enacted an extreme abortion law aimed at preventing poor women from being able to get abortions. The middle class and wealthy will just travel out of state. Republicans are a nasty bunch. I hope women and men with at least half a brain will vote them out of office in 2022. Biden has come out condemning the new abusive law. The real problem is that this will go to a DDT stacked Supreme Court that may rule so as to overturn a woman's right to determine her own future. All the more reason that DDT should be given free room and board in jail.

31 August: MASA plus 222 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The word for today is "OUT". The US is out of there. Yes, there are some Americans still in Afghanistan along with a much larger number of Afghans that want and should be able to leave. Hopefully, this will get sorted successfully in the near future. For this that have already reached the US, most seem quite happy to be here. DDT just revealed his master plan for Afghanistan. It has his usual level of compassion from a self-centered SOB, namely, "We should have let it rot". You have to admit, the message is succinct. Texas has done it with the best (worst) election reform Republicans can come up with along with an anti-abortion law that could make the hair stand up on the back of your head. The latter allows anyone to sue any person seeking an abortion or anyone helping or providing one and receive a minimum of $10,000. Perhaps there could be some non-pregnant women that could appear to be seeking an abortion so that they can get sued, and then sue back for harassment. A few financially damaging countersuits should stop the nonsense. Even better would be for women to rise up and vote the Republicans out of office. Another idiot raised his head above the mud. Rand Paul claimed researchers are unwilling to take Ivermectin seriously as a COVID-19 treatment because of their dislike for the former president. This time he's right. No sensible scientist would waste his time on any advice coming from DDT. That said, it turns out that there are some studies going on with those specific drugs, but in doses that humans can tolerate. So please, do not rush out to your local farm store and buy the animal version just so you can kill yourself. Get vaccinated or let COVID kill you. I'm still waiting on NY to produce some action on the DDT front. Just for entertainment value, if nothing else. I want to see DDT squirm and rage, and of course, eventually, wind up in jail. Lock DDT up.

30 August: MASA plus 221 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It's over, but not over. The last US soldiers have left Afghanistan with a couple of hundred possible US citizens left behind. Some because they could not get to the airport and some because they have family in Afghanistan. In spite of the confusion, Biden and the military managed to get a huge number out. Now comes the uncertain part as to whether the Taliban will live up to its word and let additional people out. Louisana is underwater or has a bunch of houses blown down and at least 10-days without electricity. On the other side of the country, fire is raging over Echo Summit causing a huge exodus from South Lake Tahoe. COVID has gotten bad enough so that the US will be removed from the "safe list", especially for unvaccinated people. DDT was quiet today, at least as far as the news is concerned. Quiet or not, DDT is dangerous as long as he is free. Lock DDT up.

29 August: MASA plus 220 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It looks like Biden has negotiated with the Taliban successfully to be able to continue extracting both Americans and Afghans with the appropriate paperwork. For everyone's sake, I hope that works. Meanwhile, Biden is shutting down the American embassy at least for a short period until the Taliban shows it is a responsible entity. Another drone strike has destroyed a car-bomb threat that was verified by observing secondary explosions. Let's hope the drones can ward off more before the 31st rolls around in two days. Biden took off from the White House to attend the return at the Dover Air Force Base of the 13 soldiers killed. Unlike DDT, the sorrow was real. It is sad that anyone had to die in order to end a war that almost no one wanted, certainly not the Afghans. Hurricane Ida is hitting Louisianna hard and will hit the Carolina's next with winds and a tone of rain. The damage will be extensive and horrifying for the people living in Ida's path. House Representative Jim Jordan has admitted to multiple calls with the DDT White House on 6 January. The fact that these calls were made should start an investigation into what was known and when did they know it. What a surprise, McConnell has ripped into Biden for his withdrawal. Of course, McConnel offered no help from the Republican side even though he knew well in advance. A hypocrite with no shame. The US economy is doing very well indeed with unemployment falling but with many jobs available but not filled. Because of this, the Federal Reserve Bank under Powell will continue its very cautious course. It's time to end DDT's uncertainty. Try him, convict, and lock him up.

 

28 August: MASA plus 219 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It looks like Biden got a piece of his revenge by killing 2 ISIS-K leaders yesterday along with the Taliban arresting 2 others that participated in the planning. Today is the 28th here but 29th in Afghanistan, so just 3 more days. The people who are criticizing Biden really had no plan themselves except to keep troops in Afghanistan and perhaps increase the numbers. Did Biden make a mistake? You bet he did. He, and no one else, expected the regular army to surrender and evaporate so quickly. Now the Taliban will have to eliminate ISIS, hopefully, with Pakistan not meddling where they do not belong. Today was a march for voting rights in Washington DC. It may not have an immediate effect. What is needed is for people to come out and vote the bums out of office and put in people interested in protecting democracy. Even with all the Republican manipulations, they will lose in the end and they know it. Texas Governor Abbott has his vote suppressing legislation and now will reap the fallout as voters realize what has been done to them.  DeSantis of Florida is in the same boat, slavishly following DDT down the path of not giving a damn about the citizens he is sworn to protect. DDT has to go down in humiliation and wind up behind bars securely locked up.

27 August: MASA plus 218 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. We are still hearing the echoes of yesterday with the death of 13 US soldiers. It is chaotic and dangerous, no question. When 31 August rolls around 4 days from now, the effort will be remembered by the number of people we get out and the way the US treats the refugees. Did Biden misread the situation 10 days ago? Yes. Is Biden right about getting us out of endless war? Most people think so. Six months from now, we'll have a much better idea of the success or failure of being out of Afghanistan. Is the civil war going to continue between ISIS and the Taliban? Probably. The bottom line, it is a mess that awaits a six-month look back. Hurricane Ida is on our doorstep with devasting rains for the Gulf coast and just heavy rains further up the coast, or at least that is what the models are predicting. The really bad news is the Supreme Court's ending of the eviction ban and throwing it to grid-locked Congress. If it wanted to, Congress could solve this problem in a week. It is sad to watch our government helpless on a bit of legislation that could prevent so much misery. It's amusing to watch Jeff Bezos (Amazon) try to stop Elon Musk's Space-X in the courts by lawsuit instead of trying to compete on technical excellence. There is a good reason for this. Space-X has succeeded and is way ahead of any competitor, even NASA itself. In the absence of legal delays, Space-X will dominate the industry on technical excellence and low cost. Is DDT still there? Yes. And is he still scheming to overturn the 2020 election? Also yes. He and his relatively small band of slavish adherents (butt kissers) have to be stopped in their tracks. In addition to NY, the House investigation committee is going after his 6 January involvement. It's past time. Lock DDT up and save America.

26 August: MASA plus 217 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Today's news is sad since 13 US soldiers were killed in an ISIS attack that also killed 60 Afghans. I listened to the Biden press conference this afternoon. All the right things were said and he very much made his resolve clear to get almost everyone out regardless of the attack. He also vowed that the perpetrators will be hunted down. I do agree with Biden that we should be out of there after 20 years of fighting in support of a corrupt regime that pretended to the trappings of democracy. Enough is enough. The big question for Biden is why he did not start the drawdown months ago. Now we are getting advice from Pakistan about being friends with the Taliban. The Pakistan that played both sides as part of its feud with India and supported the Taliban with arms and shelter while we were fighting the Taliban.  OMG. We have another tropical storm heading into the Gulf that threatens to turn into a major hurricane. This means more flooding for people that have already suffered. DDT is trying to claim executive privilege concerning documents that pertain to the 6 January insurrection attempt. Hopefully, it will not work. He needs to pay a price for encouraging the attack on our government. What is wrong with DDT? DDT just suggested Osama bin Laden wasn’t a big deal and only “had one hit.”  DDT boasted about the terror leaders that had been killed during his term, notably ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Iranian military chief Qasem Soleimani. And DDT claimed that both of them were far worse than bin Laden, the former al Qaeda leader who killed thousands of Americans in the 9/11 attacks and prompted the War in Afghanistan. DDT focuses only on himself. He needs to be given more quiet time-out time for self-focus. Lock him up, soon.

 

25 August: MASA plus 216 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The exodus from Afghanistan continues with almost all Americans already out, perhaps 500 more to go. There are still lots of Afghans that worked with the US and allies that want to get out. There are 6 days left before the 31st, so perhaps a large number can still be helped. The chaos has been difficult to watch. The next big evacuation will take place right in the US with Lake Tahoe being threatened by the Caldor fire. Oh great...Texas Governor Abbott has just banned vaccine mandates. What is he doing> Trying to see if he can be a bigger idiot than DeSantis? That is really hard to do, but you have to admire Abbott for tryng. The House committee investigating the 6 January insurrection is asking for DDT documents and those from various federal agencies. As if we didn't need another crisis, it looks like Israel and Gaza are about to start up again. I'm still waiting for NY.  Convict and lock up DDT.

24 August: MASA plus 215 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden is playing with political fire in his insistence that the exit from Afghanistan is over 7 days from now. He'll be lucky if he can get all the Americans out that want to leave no less the Afghans that helped us and their families. He is playing a long game, hoping that he can accomplish most of the exit and that the domestic program will save him and Congress in 2022. The House has passed the voting rights bill, now can it get past the Senate? I will hope for a miracle. Someone, Russians or Chinese, is playing around with directed energy beams (Havana Syndrome) aimed at US personnel. The effect is debilitating and often requires extensive medical care. There has to be a way to fight back and find the perpetrators. This has caused the trip by the Vice President to Vietnam to be postponed with two embassy personnel being flown home affected by the energy beams. COVID-Delta is causing rising infection rates and rising death rates, especially among younger people. Israel has found that the booster shot really helps keep down the hospitalization and death rates. Get yours as soon as you can. The Supreme Court has made the "Remain in Mexico" policy legal. It is a tactic, but not a solution to mass migration. Poor baby. Putin has criticized the US for pulling out of Afghanistan because it might affect precious Russia and interfere with his looting of the country. Another DDT-like craziness with people talking a livestock anti-worming drug against COVID and then requiring emergency care from poisoning.  DDT started it. Now get him convicted and lock  DDT up.

23 August: MASA plus 214 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Shots were fired, first by a sniper killing an Afghan guard and then by US troops. Fortunately, it did not escalate beyond that one incident. The deadline is 31 August. Biden has explored extending the deadline in order to get everyone out, but the Taliban are playing tough. This could get interesting in a not very good way. Today, over 10,000 were evacuated but the estimate is 300,000 needing evacuation. There is a collision coming soon. The convictions and sentencing of the 6 January insurrection people started today. The jail sentences are short but meaningful. One hopes it has an effect. Los Angeles is still burning with the Caldor fire burning towns in a 100,000-acre stretch. Plus there are many more fires burning nearby. The air quality in California is terrible as is the air quality in the northern tier of states as the smoke drifts east. New England escaped a real disaster as the hurricane eased up a bit and did not cause widespread devastation. Cuomo is gone as he gave a farewell address claiming that he would be exonerated eventually We'll see. The progressive Democrats are playing cut off your nose to make you look better with the infrastructure bill by holding it hostage to the 3.7 trillion larger spending bill. Pelosi is going to bring it to a vote playing chicken with the so-called progressive wing. These guys are doing their best to lose the House in 2022. Finally, the Pfizer vaccine has full FDA approval, which means that vaccination can now be mandated as a condition of employment, receiving services, or attending college. There is more trouble brewing in the Middle East between Israel and Gaza. Just what we need, more turmoil. After the Alabama rally, DDT is quiet again. This is good. Better will be to lock him up and throw away the key.

22 August: MASA plus 213 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The evacuation continues as Biden expands (he says if necessary) the window for getting all Americans and Afghan helpers out of the country. So far, no shots were fired. Let's hope it stays that way. All it will take is one hot head to really cause chaos. I saw pictures of the airport with thousands crushing inside. The crush was so bad that 7 people died. The Administration has ordered that commercial airlines participate in the airlift to expand capacity. Biden's approval ratings are dropping, as expected, but will probably pick up again as the infrastructure projects start along with other domestic programs. I hope that Newsome wins the California recall since the nutjob (his views are well known) on the Republican side that would be his probable successor will be a disaster for the state. Funny!  DDT was booed during his Alabama rally for encouraging people to get vaccinated. It shows his extreme Republican base is worse than even DDT. The rest of his speech in Alabama was pretty bad. Another term would be an unmitigated disaster. I want to see him in a New York court or at least being deposed under oath. Sine DDT does not know how to tell the truth, a perjury charge would work very well. New York, convict DDT and lock him up.

21 August: MASA plus 212 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Rescuing Americans and Afghans that helped the US continues at an improved but still slow pace. Now the Taliban is considering interfering with the airport operation, which could cause a direct conflict with US troops. If they do interfere, what will Biden's response be relative to his threat a couple of days ago? To quote from CNBC, "U.S. defense officials say that the military is looking for alternative ways to get Americans, Afghans and third-country nationals safely to the airport in Kabul following threats from the Islamic State." Not good at all. Tropical storm Henri is bearing down on New York City and New England tomorrow, Sunday, with heavy rain and strong winds. Just what we need now, another emergency. The first student loan forgiveness will be granted to about 320,000 students with permanent disabilities. Here is another reason to avoid crowds and wear your mask (and get vaccinated). Researchers find that people who only suffered mild infections can be plagued with life-altering and sometimes debilitating cognitive deficits. Of course, DDT-obsessed Republicans are immune from this problem. If you read the post COVID histories of affected people the deterioration is very serious and does not go away. Watch your stock portfolio head down as the Federal Reserve considers tapering. Hopefully, it will recover in time. DDT continues to be quiet, which is a relief, but a relief that won't last. Nope. I missed it. Trump stages Alabama rally as state struggles with Covid surge. Trump said he expected a “huge crowd and tremendous enthusiasm” as there was “much to discuss, mostly having to do with bringing our country back”. Here we go again with the lies and scams. Best to have NY try, convict, and lock him up.

20 August: MASA plus 211 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. DDT is painfully silent on his withdrawal plan and its failure. The fact that it was DDT's plan does not get Biden off the hook. At least Biden is promising that he will get everyone out, certainly all Americans. Today a baby was handed over the airport wall to a soldier and then troops went out into the street and cleared the way past Taliban fighters. The baby was later reunited with its father. The Taliban is starting to go house to house to exact revenge in spite of promises not to do so. It is increasingly likely that there is going to be a mess. Russia and China are trying to win favor with the Taliban. Go for it. On the COVID front, it looks as if monoclonal antibody injections are effective at reducing hospitalizations and deaths. Tropical storm Henri is boiling towards the northeast coast and is likely to deliver a mess to NYC on Sunday and then move on to New England states. Oh well, the world is a mess and getting worse with climate change and the fires burning in various places all over the globe. Thanks to DDT,, there are a lot of oil and coal leases in the US that Biden tried to stop but failed on the courts. With DDT it has to be never again. So, lock him up and forget about DDT.

 

19 August: MASA plus 210 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. It is still not looking good for Biden's bungle for leaving Afghanistan, but it does look like a huge effort is being made to right the chaos he caused. Everyone is second-guessing him, some of it right and most of it wrong. The military has gotten over 7000 people out with many more coming in future days from an airport that is amply secured. The real question is what will happen in Afghanistan after we leave. Will it collapse economically, will it continue to be the largest source of narcotics, will women be pushed back 1000 years, and will it become a source of terrorism and regional instability? Three senators, Hickenlooper, Wicker, and King have tested positive for Covid after being fully vaccinated. It should be no problem other than having them isolate themselves. Texas and Florida are still fighting the idea of mask mandates even in the face of surging infections. These are crazy ideologues that have no business being governors. The Arizona Court of Appeals upheld a lower court decision on Thursday requiring the state's Republican-led Senate to produce Cyber Ninja records related to the election audit. This should be more than amusing. It should be embarrassing and possible criminal. As always, my final thought is of an image of DDT in the bottom bunk in a cell in an orange jumpsuit. Lock him up.

18 August: MASA plus 209 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. I took yesterday off. I was not feeling all that well but feel back to normal now. I still want DDT locked up and out of our hair, in a place where I will not care, never seeing his orange face, not even a small trace.

17 August: MASA plus 208 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Joe B, you have screwed up by having a single-minded goal, withdrawal at all costs, that you were following regardless of the facts on the ground. You will not be forgiven for this blunder and it may cost you the mid-term elections. Right now, your best hope is that the Taliban follows through in its public promises made today of relatively benign rule. You are skating on politically thin ice by relying on the Taliban to save your reputation. The best is that you have the advantage of the Taliban taking over the major cities without bloodshed and major damage. For now, it is a waiting game while holding your breath to see if the Taliban exact revenge and repression. Let's hope it is not boxing's equivalent, Ali's "Rope a Dope", or Taliban's Hope a Dope. Yes, fires are burning, people are getting sick in increasing numbers and some are dying, water is running short in the SouthWest, Haiti had an earthquake with thousands killed or injured, people are shooting people including children, China is still being belligerent and repressive of Muslims, and the US is going down the road of suppressing voting. In the face of all that, we are suffering the most from DDT's ill-formed negotiations with the Taliban and Biden's stubborn insistence on following DDT's plan regardless of the facts on the ground. I blame you, Joe, but it still is DDT that needs to be locked up before he can do even more damage. NY, convict DDT and lock him up.

16 August: MASA plus 207 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Listening to Biden's speech about ending the Afghan war for the US after 20 years, everything was entirely reasonable and desirable. The US has no business nation-building for a people that are not willing to defend the nation. That said, the withdrawal was very poorly planned with no real plan to help Afghans that helped us and are now potentially threatened for revenge by the Taliban. The result was chaos at the airport. The chaos is gone at the airport now and planes are leaving regularly. The real question still remains. Will the US airlift save those who worked with us and their families? The State Department has been dragging its feet issuing visas, but now is in panic mode. When all this is settled down in the near future, we can look back and see the outcome. Days 1 and 2 were not pretty. The long-term issue may be worse if terrorism raises its ugly head. It is ironic, Florida is being hit with floods while the west is in a severe drought, a drought so bad that the federal government is rationing water from the Colorado River for downstream states for the first time ever. The effect on agriculture for the US will be painful. COVID continues to rage with ever-expanding numbers including young people. The big fight is now about mask mandates to try and slow the disease and save lives. There is a certain fraction of the population that does not seem to give a damn about anyone else than themselves. COVID is so bad that the fires raging in the US, Europe, and the middle east have fallen ion to a dull news glow. Weird. DDT came out swinging for Biden caught in DDT's very own faulty Afghan Taliban appeasement plan. That does not let Biden off the hook, but DDT should just shut up. The best way to shut him up is to lock DDT up for an extended stay plan.

15 August: MASA plus 206 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. "Saigon" has fallen again. This time the fallen capital is named Kabul. With a 300,000 man army, the government could not stand up to an enemy a tenth of their size because of corrupt incompetent leadership that valued squabbling among themselves rather than defending a nation. Afghan President Ghani has fled the country for Tajikistan to avoid the Taliban. It is sad to see this happen, and dangerous to the region and the world. Biden still has to complete the US exit safely with all Americans and as many Afghan helpers as it can. I'm sure this will be analyzed in the news for days on end. Two storms are heading for the US, one crossing Florida and one heading into the Gulf with lots of rain n a region that does not need more flooding. More shootings and other than the people and families involved, it's a big ho-hum, when it should be a call to national action. Other than Afghanistan and Trudeau calling a "snap" election in Canada, it is a quiet day. Even DDT is quiet. Let's make DDT's life more interesting. Arrest DDT and lock him up.

14 August: MASA plus 205 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. If anything sinks the Biden administration it will be DDT's withdrawal lack-of-plan from Afghanistan he negotiated with the Taliban. Biden is decidedly for the pull-out, saying he will not pass this war to yet another president. Since the Taliban did not stick to their side of the agreement, there was no reason for sticking to the DDT timetable. A more orderly renegotiated deal could have been made. Also, there is the problem of Pakistan that made the war impossible by offering sanctuary to the Taliban and provided weapons. Already India is gearing up to defend itself. Hopefully, there will not be a conflict between two nuclear powers, It's just what Haiti needed on top of its political chaos, a 7.2 magnitude earthquake killing at least 300 people as of today. And of course, there is COVID in the news with Texas taking the mask mandate ruling to the very conservative Texas Supreme Court all the while begging other states for help with it overflowing hospital situation. A judge in Texas has ordered the Biden administration to reinstate the stay in Mexico order until it can be rescinded legally. The Biden DHS and Border Services are overwhelmed with would-be migrants that have been allowed to move to other states while waiting years for adjudication of their cases. This is an unsustainable situation even if you are a liberal in your thinking. Since DDT, this country is going crazy sending death threats to public health officials, the latest in Tennessee, and to the local people that manage elections within a state. Neither of these is a localized phenomenon but is happening in a significant number of states. The Tennessee health official is taking the threat to her life seriously and moving to Virginia. A lot of the overt threats can be traced to DDT who does not give a damn about the country. Take DDT out a lock him up.

13 August: MASA plus 204 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden is betting the store, so to speak, on the Taliban forming a reasonable type of government that will not side with terrorists leading to attacks on the US. The negotiated deal with the Taliban to form a joint government is viewed as a joke. The fact that it was negotiated by DDT does not make the outcome any less Bidens' responsibility. I am not sure why Biden is sticking his head in the sand over this issue. I certainly understand not having American troops killed or injured in a never-ending battle gleefully supported by Pakistan, an erstwhile ally. One outcome is a bigger war somewhere in the not too distant future. COVID and the weather are sizzling this July and August. There are record temperatures, massive fires, and overfull hospitals with not-dead-yet children waiting for others to die so they can get a bed. Most of this is in the benighted South where governors are resisting mandatory actions that would save lives. Perhaps we are witnessing "Darwin's natural selection". Evictions are starting up again in a big way with families being left homeless. The program to forestall this dire outcome seems mired in inefficient state governments that cannot seem to get the allocated money out to those that need the help, help needed by both landlords and tenants. The political scene is about to get interesting again with redistricting starting, especially in those states with governments bent on denying voting rights. You may not know it but today, 13 August, was DDT reinstatement day. It didn't happen, of course, but just the fact that large numbers of people think it should and could is scary enough. Go for it NY and save the US. Try, convict and lock DDT up.

12 August: MASA plus 203 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. With all that is going on it is hard to believe that Brittany Spears is the top story. Why? The real sad story is the collapse of Afghanistan and the potential for future destabilization of the whole area. It is hard to believe that terrorism will not rear its ugly head and get us involved again. The Pentagon is sending 3000 troops to Kabul to help evacuate the embassy and get Americans out of the country. A Texas Democrat senator is ending a filibuster over the voting rights bill. Florida is leading the country again with 21,000 new COVID cases per day. Way to go DeSantis. Instead of doing what is sensible, DeSantis has announced Thursday that the state will start dispensing Regeneron monoclonal antibodies through mobile clinics. It's better than nothing in this instance and it sounds as if he is doing something. Governor death is vying with Texas for the lead. Fauci is not saying that everyone will require a vaccine booster. If the new Lambda variant really takes hold, then the current vaccines will be much less effective.  Mike Lindell (MyPillow CEO) fled the stage at his cyber symposium at the same time news broke that Dominion's billion-dollar defamation lawsuit against him would proceed. Couldn't happen to a better person. It's hard to believe that Sicily had temperatures exceeding 120 F. Unfortunately, this will be the future for a lot of places. DDT is still out there a malignant force encouraging the violent overthrow of the government. He has convinced one-third of Republicans that the election was fraudulent and should be reversed by any means whatever. DDT needs to be in jail enjoying the free food and clothing and the free TV. Lock DDT up.

11 August: MASA plus 202 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Officially Cuomo has bought himself 2 weeks more as Governor. It remains to be seen what shenanigans he can pull in 14 days. His Lieutenant Governor seems like a straight shooter. She should be a breath of fresh air.  Afghanistan is lurching out of control with the Taliban now controlling more than 50% of the country and its vaunted military showing no inclination to fight. The real problem with this is that the conflict could easily spill outside of Afghan borders and destabilize the whole area. Undoing the mess now would be difficult and costly. Watching the COVID rates steadily climb almost everywhere but particularly in the South with Florida, Alabama, and Texas leading the way with rates nearing 100 per 100,000 in Florida. The fact that hospitals are overflowing does not seem to bother the governors. The only thing that is saving the situation a little are the courts that are ruling against the overt stupidity of the governors. Right now the democratic House looks like it is an obstacle to passing the infrastructure bill with the so-called progressives willing to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory just to make a point that they have power beyond their numbers. Sad but seems to be true. More climate change effects are starting up again with the Pacific Northwest under "heat domes" with out-of-this-world temperatures. Oregon has declared a state of emergency. It is estimated that 200 million people are threatened by extreme heat. DDT is still denying climate change and will deny it even as his property goes underwater from sea-level rise. Where are you NY? You have dealt with Cuomo, now get your act together and indict, try and convict DDT. Lock DDT up and help save these United States.

10 August: MASA plus 201 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Good news, Cuomo da Pig has resigned and probably will face civil and criminal charges. Almost everyone turned on him and he finally got the message, "GET OUT OF DODGE OR THE SHERIFF WILL GET YOU". The infrastructure bill passed the Senate, now will the House hold it up? This would be the Democrat liberal wing chewing its own nose off just because it can. Florida is in for a beating, both from COVID and a newly formed storm, Fred. If there is any high ground there, find it. Texas Governor Abbott is appealing for out-of-state help with COVID after doing everything he could to prevent the state from helping itself. Other Governors are starting to implement mask mandates as hospitals get overwhelmed. Is Texa's Abbott? No. Now Russia is on fire from climate change, shades of California, and the smoke is bothering Putin in Moscow. Putin, get out there and start raking, DDT will supervise and show you how. Financial inflation is becoming a real thing for a lot of people who can barely afford to live. Those 5% increases hurt. The news has little about DDT today, but in his case, no news is not good news, since he is there in the background scheming to screw things up as much as he can to get himself back in power. Stop DDT cold, stop him dead n his tracks. Lock DDT up.

 

9 August: MASA plus 200 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. More Afghan cities have fallen to the Taliban raising the strong possibility of a political disaster for Afghans especially women. The infrastructure is moving forward. So far DDT's threats are being ignored by 18 Republican senators who beat down a filibuster attempt against Biden's infrastructure plan. Next, of course, comes the hard part, actually voting for passage. DDT strikes fear by running primaries with hard-right creeps with his 100 million dollars accumulated under false pretenses. Along with the COVID pandemic, climate change dangers are raising their ugly heads. The changes are coming faster than predicted, with more storms, more fires. more drought and more starvation combined with sea-level rise will cause massive migration towards those areas viewed as more prosperous. The real problems are the combined climate change effects and just too many people on this planet all reasonably wanting a higher standard of living, which translated into more CO2 and Methane. If we do not do something quickly and proactively, nature will do it for us with calamitous results. With Greenland ice melting changing the fresh to saltwater ratio. the Gulf stream is slowing to a stop. Watch Europe freeze and parts of the eastern US broil. We forget that the latitude of Paris is at the latitude of the Canadian border and London 51 degrees most of the way to Hudson Bay at 59 degrees to say nothing about the Scandanavian countries. The water sources for a huge portion of humanity comes from glacial sources (India and South America) that are steadily disappearing. The world has been here before and it was a disaster. Speaking of disasters, the testimony of assistant AG Rosen showed how close the US came to losing our form of government from an attempt by DDT to subvert our elections. The subversion continues, especially at the state level where there is an effort to allow Republican state legislators to reverse election results. The best defense is to get people out to vote to throw the bums out and to get DDT in jail.

8 August: MASA plus 199 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Biden's policy in Afghanistan looks like a mess. There is no question that we should not be there forever, but somehow all the billions and all the training seem to be for naught in the absence of any real fervor on the part of the Afghans for a popular democratic government. I do not know if it is true or not, but there was an article suggesting that the US is using B52 bombers and gunships against a resurgent Taliban. I also read that the Afghan government was asking Russia for help. Could all this be true?  Infrastructure is still pending as the senators argue about the number of angels on the head of a pin (answer, none). A right-wing nut antivaccine person, Dick Far has died of COVID and wished on his deathbed that he had listened and taken the vaccine. Nice to have a deathbed conversion, but does little good for him and everyone that listened to his garbage. More shootings. This time a  Chicago policewoman during a traffic stop. The 3 suspects have been apprehended.  Oh no, a vaccine-resistant Lambda variant is loose in the US that originated in Peru. 44 states have reported the appearance of this variant. Will it overtake the delta variant? It is really bad news if it does. Sigh. A DDT-aligned DOJ official, Jeffrey Clark, drafted a letter that urged colleagues to help pressure Georgia lawmakers. Fauci says that the FDA could give full approval to vaccines this month. Now we need a new one that stops delta and lambda. Even with all these problems and the threat of climate change (heat in the US and freezing in Europe plus major sea-level rise) the biggest immediate problem is the potential rise of right-wing extremists led by DDT. Step 1. Convict DDT and lock him up.

7 August: MASA plus 198 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. California is about to have what passes for fun in the recall election of Governor Newsom with the GOP deciding not to endorse anyone. That means no party resources for the 4 Republican candidates. Another governor, Cuomo, is virtually isolated politically, the political equivalent of a zombie, the walking dead. Biden's infrastructure bill is slowly making progress in the Senate with some details like the taxing of cryptocurrencies, bitcoin in particular. DDT, of course, is trying to prevent the bill from passing by making threats against senators that are indicating support. What a surprise.  DDT is going to run opponents in primaries against them. Hopefully, they have a real spine. COVID is raging ever faster especially in the South (Louisianna, Florida, Alabama) with people stubbornly opposed to getting vaccinated. It's not being helped by Florida's governor D for death DeSantis. Businesses are reinstating mask requirements and vaccinations. Better late than never. It will take between 80 to 90% of the population vaccinated before COVID can be stopped. Jobs are plentiful and unemployment is dropping steadily much to DDT's chagrin. He's doing everything he can to make things worse for America. He needs to be tried and convicted for fraud and insurrection. Lock him up, soon.

6 August: MASA plus 197 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. The California fires keep growing and the hot part of the summer is just getting going. Along with water shortages, perhaps it is time to move elsewhere. This is like watching a slow-motion crash, or in the case of climate change, not so slow. It's not just California, but all over the world such as southern Europe (Italy Greece, and Turkey), famine in Africa, and drought in Central America. On the home front, Biden has delayed paying student loans, which will help a lot of people with little or no income. It is surprisingly quiet today. There are lawsuits against the eviction hold by CDC. Investigations are going on about the DDT administration and the 6 January peaceful tourist visit to the capital now that contemporaneous notes have surfaced about perfectly justified phone calls between DDT and DOJ to overthrow the fraudulent election of Joe Biden. If you believe that BS, you are hopeless. Step 1 is to lock up DDT for fraud of his own. Go New York.

5 August MASA plus 196 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. New York is proceeding with impeachment for Cuomo who stubbornly is refusing to resign in the face of overwhelming evidence of sexual harassment, especially in the case of the young police officer assigned to his protective detail. Truly amazing is the evidence for soaring gun sales as ammunition supplies leave bare shelves. This is in spite of the evidence that the wide distribution of guns is causing more gun deaths. If this keeps up, America will become an increasingly dangerous place to live where people with an overactive aggressive personality will settle minor disagreements with violence. A recent analysis of the US medical system shows that the US is the worst and best among developed countries. Best, if you can afford the expenses and have really good insurance coverage, and the worst if you are poor and have a low-range insurance policy or are uninsured. Underneath all of this is the fact that the US spends way more on medical costs than any other country. Every attempt to fix this problem is met with resistance from the medical industry reaping billions in profits and fat salaries. The fires in the west keep spreading destroying whole towns. Water is extremely in short supply, especially for agriculture in a region that supplies most of the vegetables for the US. The other not-so-good news is the slowing of the Gulf Stream that moderates climate for Europe (warmer in the winter) and for the US east coast (cooler in the summer). If the Gulf Stream switches to a slow state (this has happened before but not in modern history) the economic and human misery situation will get really bad. DDT is now selling identification cards (one with misspelling) to raise money for further political mischief in the upcoming election season. He is also legally resisting the DOJ order to release his tax returns to Congress. We need to get rid of him. Lock DDT up.

4 August: MASA plus 195 days out of 1431 days plus a 2nd term. Cuomo is toast. The report is damning with witnesses and victims. All that is missing are videos. Time to resign or get impeached and convicted. Either way, it is over. DDT did the same, but so far has gotten away with it. Perhaps Cuomo’s fate will rub off. A report on unvaccinated people shows that they are not changing their risky behavior. With the delta variant, they may get their apparent wish, get sick and die. The one good bit of COVID news is in Florida where the current governor DeSantis is falling behind a challenger Crist in the polls. Crist cannot be worse (I hope). A federal judge is sanctioning lawyers who filed fantastical lawsuits claiming that the election was stolen. The penalties remain to be assessed. Iran is implicated in the hijacking of a tanker off the UAE coast that was thwarted by the crew sabotaging the engines. The Federal Reserve Bank is thinking about raising interest rates early in 2023. That’s a long way off, much can change. South Korea’s COVID cases are spiking with a Delta plus variant. A few cases have been seen in the US. Biden’s CDC stopped the evictions for a couple of months perhaps until Congress does its job. Apparently, 2/3 of DDT’s republicans still think the election was stolen. Not accepting the results of a clean election is dangerous to democracy and with a leader who wants to be a dictator. Time to lock DDT up.

3 August: MASA plus 194 days out of 1431 days until Biden’s 2nd term. Good for you Biden. A clear unequivocal “He should resign” in reference to the Cuomo scandal in NY. Garland as AG is starting investigations into DDT’s and crony’s bad behavior after losing the election and events leading up to the 6 January attempted insurrection or coup. The US escaped a bad fate just barely. Thankfully, the DOJ (Rosen) ignored DDT’s pleas to declare the election corrupt (“and leave it to me and the Republicans”). The last thing we need is a dictator with no human empathy. Finally, at the very last minute, the administration has announced an eviction ban for at least two months. It may get challenged, but it will take more than 2 months to get to the Supreme Court. Of course, money has to be given to landlords to pay their bills. So far, the states have been glacial. COVID keeps increasing, infecting both the vaccinated and unvaccinated, so, please wear masks. I cannot afford to lose the few readers I have. At least if you are vaccinated you are not likely to need hospitalization, nor will you die. OMG. The coronavirus is rampant in some wild animals, like deer, and in some pets (dogs and cats). Get fish, they are not affected. Regardless of your politics, the migrant situation at the southern border is becoming extremely difficult to handle. The local communities are screaming because of the influx of COVID sick people and the Dept of Homeland Security does not have the means to help. I think I read this morning that so far this year 1 million people have crossed the border as of June with another large group in July. This is more than can be sanely handled. Climate change is gripping Southern Europe, Italy, Greece, and Turkey with extreme heat and fires. It will only get worse. DDT is interfering in the special election process by picking extreme candidates and supporting them with significant amounts of money and personal endorsements. So far, he has lost. Come the 2022 election, DDT could cause havoc. It is time to lock up our would-be dictator.

2 August: MASA plus 193 days out of 1431 days: The days are getting shorter as is patience with this congress doing almost nothing. Republicans are no longer a party interested in governing, just in power. It’s time for conservatives to form a new party and leave the morons behind. The US has reached a 70% goal, sort of, but only if you count getting one dose. C’mon guys role up those sleeves and get the injection. We need to get over 70% with 2 shots, more like 80 or 90% plus masks to stop this mess. Another police officer as part of the Capital police committed suicide over the 6 January insurrection. He’s the 3rd one. The eviction notices will start going out very soon with an end to the moratorium. Where are all these families going to go? Germany is now recommending booster shots, the rest of the world will not be far behind. Democrats and Independents, we need your attention to boot out Republicans at all levels of government. This destructive party headed by DDT must go. Send the morons home and as for DDT, lock him up.

1 August 2021: MASA plus 192 days out of 1431 days. It looks like the Senate has the votes to pass the infrastructure bill but on the house side, AOC is trying a power play to get a much bigger measure passed by holding the infrastructure bill hostage. I hope that this does not work. The pity is that Congress adjourned before doing anything about the eviction problem that starts tomorrow (Monday). There is agreement that Iran was behind the killing of two people aboard the Israeli tanker. Some kind of response is probably going to occur. Wait and see. Good for him. The Miami Beach mayor is blaming the pig-headed DeSantis for the explosion of COVID in his city and Florida in general. Florida, once again, has the highest number of cases in a single day ever. China’s financial markets are in turmoil as the government cracks down on tech companies. What the implication is for the rest of the world remains to be seen. But one thing is for sure, investing in China has become extra risky. DDT is edging closer to a day of reckoning. But even as it is clearly coming, Republicans are defending their unclothed emperor. What is scary is that DDT supporters have raised $82 million in just the first half of 2021. This money floating around in our political system can cause havoc. The Dixie wildfire is still racing through California. If only the state had listened to DDT and done more raking. It’s time for DDT to drink some of his recommended COVID-killing bleach or get locked up. Stupidity and callous indifference to democracy do not belong in the US political system. Lock DDT up.

===================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

31 July: MASA plus 191 days out of 1431 days. Goodbye July, it has been nice knowing you. We almost got rid of the masks and the threat of COVID just two weeks ago, now it's back to the Summer of our Discontent. Florida has broken a record with more than 21683 new cases. DeSantis should be proud and take his just reward for his deceit. What a governor! Please stay in Florida. We do not need your heat-addled leadership or lack thereof. An eviction crisis is looming after Biden and Congress fail to extend the deadline or expedite payments. A huge number of tenants prepare for an unpleasant unknown future. Biden's pullout from Afghanistan is looking increasingly dire as the formal government seems to lack the will to defend itself. The Taliban is now besieging 3 cities with little resistance. NYC watch out. Mayor de Blasio is about to issue an edict that there will be no entrance to bars without a vaccine certificate. Worry not, you can buy them online. DDT's frantic efforts to undermine the 2020 election are surfacing now in the form of notes taken at the time. It is nothing we did not expect, but it is chilling to see them so blatantly out in the open. Perhaps this is a predictor of things coming to the US. French police are clashing with anti-virus certification protestors in Paris. Next will it be NY, Chicago, or San Fransico? DDT's income tax records are very much in play now. The fraud to me is obvious, let's see if the courts agree. If they do, lock DDT up in a padded cell.

30 July: MASA plus 190 days out of 1431 days. The days are clicking away but with lots more to come. Progress is happening with the infrastructure bill slowly making its way through the Senate. The impact on the economy should be huge (Sorry DDT, no pun intended). Speaking about DDT, the Justice Department has ordered the IRS to turn over DDT’s tax returns to the House. Once turned over, it could get interesting in a hurry. If there is fraud in those returns, why hasn’t the IRS brought it out already now that DDT no longer pretends to be a real president? Before he left office DDT apparently urged the Justice Department to declare the election corrupt and cause a coup d’état. Lucky for us, he failed, just as he has failed at almost everything he touched. A sort of reverse Midas. Pelosi is asking the CDC to extend the eviction moratorium unilaterally, but I am not sure that they have the power to do so. Biden is curiously silent. If Biden gets his way, all Federal workers will either be vaccinated or have to take at least 1 COVID test per week. Quite unpleasant. The really unpleasant fact is that the Delta variant can infect both the vaccinated and unvaccinated but with the outcomes very different. The vaccinated become carriers and may get somewhat sick (really bad cold), but are not likely to die. For the unvaccinated, it can be deadly with dire aftereffects, if they survive. Get vaccinated. It also looks like a third shot will be needed for people with weakened immune systems or people over 60. I hope the CDC moves on this quickly. In the meantime, please wear a mask when around other people. The risk is rising, so don’t fool around and later wish that you listened while you are dying. Storms (read climate change) are rattling places all over the world. The latest in the US are the expected heavy rains in the Colorado mountains. This will be a likely disaster. The Iran problem is looming again with delays in striking a deal to limit their development of nuclear weapons. Germany and other countries are getting impatient with Iran. Plus, Iran took potshots at an Israeli freighter killing two people, one British. Bezos’s company has lost its appeal to thwart Space-X’s award of a moon landing by trying to buy his way in with unproven hardware. Time to call it quits for today with my ever-repeated thought, “indict, try, convict and lock DDT up”, save America.

29 July MASA plus 189 days out of 1461 days. It is looking quite possible that the 1 trillion dollar infrastructure bill will pass with support from both parties. It’s not a done deal yet, so do not hold your breath until it becomes law. Biden is pushing hard to get people to vaccinate, even offering bonuses. It’s a hard sell to some. One nurse was complaining that the approval process was too fast. She wanted it to take 10 years, so she could be sure that there were no side effects. The fact that millions would unnecessarily die was of no concern to her while we wait for a decade. The fact that it was tested on 40,000 people made no difference. If she catches a bad case of COVID, her tune may change. Then she can worry about the long-term after-effects of COVID. The UK is experiencing a downturn in hospitalizations and deaths in spite of BoJo’s totally relaxing restrictions. Scientists were surprised. Perhaps there have been enough vaccine injections plus enough people have caught COVID to confer some natural immunity. If it holds, then I am glad for the UK. OMG. Texas Governor Abbott is threatening fines again against local officials and businesses that enforce mask mandates, vaccine requirements. As Pelosi said of McCarthy, “you are a Moron”, which certainly applies to Abbott too. Biden is allowing the eviction moratorium to expire as scheduled. I do not understand why. I also do not understand why the 45 billion set aside for rent payments has not been distributed. As you might expect, DDT went after the Capital police officers that testified about the trauma suffered and the indignities heaped on them by fellow, but disloyal, Americans. He called them weak pussies and manipulated by Pelosi. DDT is a mess, America’s mess, and America needs to lock him away for good.

28 July: MASA plus 188 days out of 1461 days. What do you know: It looks like the infrastructure ill will pass with some Republican support (perhaps) while others are playing idiot as usual. On the House side, most of the Republicans are pretending they are Russians totally opposed to our form of government. Voters, it is time to get rid of these anti-Americans pretending to bray like patriots. The Republican party needs to be voted out of office and replaced with members willing to govern whether in the minority or majority. Personally, I am tired of half of Congress (mostly Republicans) behaving like Jackasses except for a very few. Finally, Pelosi got so irked that she said about McCarthy “such a moron”, an appellation he richly deserves. Mask mandates are coming back fast, which is a good thing for public health. That plus getting the rest of the nation vaccinated. Biden finally has come awake and is promising to make federal workers, all 4 million of them, wear masks and be vaccinated (or be tested once per week). Voters have rejected a DDT-supported candidate in Texas. I knew her well, he said, now goodbye. The DOJ has issued a second warning to states not to mess with the ballots and machines from the 2020 election as has been done in Arizona with its totally botched fake audit. Even the voting machines now have to be replaced because of mishandling of the machines that makes their security suspect. Republicans in Congress are yelling and throwing things in protest against the idea of wearing masks. Masks are good for them and for us, since the less we see of them, the better. The testimony of the Capitol Police was riveting and painted a horrible picture of what went on 6 January that was energized by DDT. Watching the testimony reinforces the idea that DDT must be convicted and locked up.

27 July: MASA plus 187 days out of 1461 days. The clock is ticking as the House hearings get underway with emotional testimony from the assaulted Capital Police. The loving crowd that DDT claims were outside the Capital seems to have delivered that love in a very violent manner. The delivery was violet enough to cause injury and PTSD. Eventually, DDT will be pulled into these hearings whether in person or by proxy, but he will be a central figure. The two Republicans on the committee gave an accurate description of the goals of the investigation, namely the preservation of our democracy against mob rule or the machinations of a would-be dictator (“self-governance is at stake”). Good for them. Of course, the House minority leader excoriated them for daring to be for the American form of government and for seeking the truth. McCarthy needs to be removed as a leader. Hopefully, Democrats and Independents will come out in droves and vote the Republicans out of office. It looks like masks will be a fashion statement again. Get yours and wear it, please, since COVID is raging. Biden is having Federal workers wear masks as are many in state governments (wear a mask and vaccinate or be tested weekly). Even the head-in-the-sand CDC has come out in favor of wearing a mask. Stephen Weinberg’s pointless universe is in the news since his recent death. It’s a difficult childhood dream to give up for some, but at least one physicist pointed out correctly that the universe may be pointless but for us humans, it is the journey that counts. For some humans, the journey does not matter, only self-aggrandizement counts. For one of them, DDT, which presents a clear and present danger to our way of life. DDT needs to be locked up.

26 July: MASA plus 186 days out of 1461 days (for Biden’s 1st term, 2922 altogether). Finally, some intelligence is being shown here and there. California, New York City, and Virginia are instituting mandates for working for their respective governments, either be vaccinated or routinely tested. That idea needs to spread to other governments and industries. In the same vein, it looks like US travel restrictions are staying in place. We need anything that can slow the spread of Delta COVID and any newer variants. Florida is being inundated with new cases under De Santis’ brilliant leadership. I’d vote for him in a heartbeat. I can see the slogan now: DeSantis for Dog Catcher – watch him run a crooked line. I did not realize that there is a new variant spreading. This one is from Columbia. Not good. Apparently, international travel to Miami makes Florida a gateway for new strains. We need to build a wall. From the Sacramento Bee: “California Gov. Gavin Newsom called out right-wing provocateur Tucker Carlson during his Monday morning press conference, accusing the Fox News host and other prominent conservatives of spreading vaccine misinformation.” What a shock. Whoever would have thought old Tucker baby could stoop so low, so low that he can kiss his own butt. COVID is taking the air out of the news. US-China talks have fizzled. Hamas is threatening new violence unless Qatari aid is let in. Some Qatari aid (oil) was let in but reconstruction materials are being limited unless captives are released. The US is pulling out of Iraq based on negotiations with the Iraqi leader and Biden. And the mess in Afghanistan continues with the Afghan government running out of supplies. Joe, get with it. No mention of DDT anywhere. Just as if he were in solitary confinement for our protection. Yes, lock DDT up.

25 July: MASA plus 185 days out of 1461 days. Finally, we are starting to get some strong pushback from Fauci and others against a weak-kneed head of the CDC about needing to wear masks and being socially cautious even if you are vaccinated. Pretending that the situation is not dire is equivalent to sticking your head in the sand to avoid sunburn and getting your butt burned off. The California-Nevada fire is still growing larger destroying homes in its path with thousands of people being evacuated. This is a disaster that is likely to repeat year after year in the future. Now Pelosi has nominated Republican representative Kinzinger to serve on the 6 January investigating committee. He did vote against DDT, but should be fair and level-headed in committee hearings. Tucker Carlson got called out while in a fishing gear store in Montana, “The customer, Dan Bailey, posted a video to Instagram on Friday that showed him confronting the Fox News personality, whom he termed as "the worst human being." "What you have done to this state, to the United States, to everything else in this world. I don't care that your daughter's here. What you have done to everybody else in this world....". Carlson just laughed and said to “calm down son”. Really? I disagree, Carlson is the 2nd worst human being after DDT. Sigh! It starts again. Israel struck back at Gaza in response to lofting incendiary balloons into Israel that started serious fires. Now what? As always, we wait on NY to save America by trying and convicting DDT for crimes against sanity. Lock him up.

24 July: MASA plus 184 days out of 1461 days. COVID is getting worse and will continue to get worse. It looks like booster shots are in order, but not yet certified by the CDC, especially for the immune impaired and older folk. Get that 3rd shot when available and make sure it is Pfizer or Moderna. Amazingly, even with people dying, there is still fear about the vaccine. The Taliban is showing its true colors by beheading an interpreter that worked for the US. All the more reason to help get people out of there that helped the US military. The Arizona secretary of state has told DDT to shut up and get over it, Accept the loss and move on. I’m sure that advice will work for DDT, right? After an extreme drought in the west, there are now Monsoon style rains that are causing flooding. A lose-lose situation. Vanity Fair has reported that DDT has scammed millions of dollars from his not very bright supporters. In fact, the fund into which the suckers have poured so much money has almost no restrictions on the way DDT can spend it, including first-class personal travel. DDT is holding grudge rallies and supporting candidates that would be bombs for democracy if they are elected. Time to convict DDT of the crimes he so clearly has committed. Lock DDT up.

23 July: MASA plus 183 days out of 1461 days. The deplorables are finally starting to get the message. Get vaccinated or die. Even for them, this is a message that they hear. However, sanity just took a big beating. An appeals court just blocked CDC's restrictions on cruise ships and ruled that CDC's eviction moratorium was unlawful. Now what? We can have cruise ships full of sick people unable to get off the ships (we've seen this one before) and also people will be thrown out in the street even though there is rental assistance now starting to become available. A conservative radio talk-show host, Phil Valentine, who had told followers that they were "probably safer not getting" the COVID-19 vaccine if they weren't at high risk is now hospitalized in serious condition with the coronavirus and now "regrets" not being more "pro-vaccine."  Another deplorable get the message. New York is proceeding with all due haste to indict the people around DDT and hopefully get to the "mob" boss in time. Time for what? Time before the 2022 election. Lock DDT up.

 

22 July: MASA plus 182 out of 1461 days. I forgot to upload the file last evening. So, briefly, COVID is still increasing everywhere but most strongly in regions where people refuse to get vaccinated (Southern states mostly).COVID has become the disease of the unvaccinated and unrepentant until they are dying and have a last-minute sad change of heart (sorry too late, as one doctor said). The BIden administration is doing what the NRA has always asked, just enforce the existing gun laws, this time by going after illegal gun sales, especially to straw buyers. Guess what? The NRA is objecting that it might interfere with the rights of law-abiding gun owners. Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh is back in the news again over a botched FBI investigation of his background at the insistence of the DDT administration. The FBI apparently had additional information which was suppressed. There are more attempts to overturn Roe vs Wade in the Supreme Court again in a Mississippi case using the 3 right-wing justices appointed by DDT. What a travesty. The US cannot have DDT back again. It is time to try him for bank fraud and criminal tax evasion. Too bad we cannot convict him for perpetual lies. Time to lock DDT up and throw away the key.

21 July: MASA plus 181 out of 1461 days. Relative calm pervades the White House even in the face of a Republican storm of obstruction. Now it is the infrastructure bill blocked by Republicans. However, they have a point. The bill is not yet written so that Schumer’s attempt to bring it to the Senate floor for discussion is premature. The Republicans want to wait a week, which is reasonable if they are being honest. We’ll see. COVID is marching on infecting more and more people who have not gotten the vaccine. It is really sad now to see people dying and begging for the vaccine with the doctor telling them, “So sorry, but it is too late”. Watching young people die is devastating to the morale of medical workers. It is interesting how periodically in history really stupid or venal people somehow obtain a small measure of power and with that power disrupt society and occasionally civilization (e.g., Hitler). It usually involves getting the masses or people behind a falsehood that they are willing to die for, or at least kill other people that disagree. We can see this playing out in the US and in Europe, where DDT followers or QAnon followers seem to have inordinate power over about 30% of the population. Lawyers for the 6 January insurrectionists are arguing that their clients were temporarily misguided or had bad childhoods and didn’t mean to hurt anyone. These otherwise upstanding citizens, pillars of their communities, are being unfairly persecuted and prosecuted for minor acts of mischief in the Capital. After all, only a few people died. Never mind the property damage, the threats to legislator’s lives, the carrying of weapons, and the real possibility of destroying Congress. The argument is that we should have pity on these poor momentarily (even though evidence points to anything but momentary) misguided individuals (organized and communicating by radio with secret codes). I am sure that there are a few that got swept up in the moment, but most were just evil. House Republicans attempted to put two dyed-in-the-wool deniers and obstructionists about the 6 January insurrection onto the investigating committee. Pelosi said no to these two and McCarthy has pulled out all Republicans except Liz Cheney. The fires burning in the west from improper raking of the forest floor (remember DDT) and possibly climate change are producing smoke that has traveled eastward for over 2000 miles and is no seriously affecting air quality in the Northeast US with no let up in sight. Even with COVID and the fires, do not forget DDT. We need to get him off the political scene. Lock him up, the sooner the better.

20 July: MASA plus 180 out of 1461 days. Fauci got Rand Paul’s knickers in a knot effectively telling Rand that he did not know what he was talking about and informing him strongly that he, Rand Paul, was a liar. Case closed. It was good to see Fauci point to Rand being a dishonest nincompoop about NIH finding of a research project in China. DDT’s head of his inaugural committee has been indicted on being a foreign agent of the UAE and using that position to lobby DDT while he was acting as President. The Texas democrats that visited DC brought COVID with them and infected Pelosi’s staff. They were both vaccinated, and so suffered mild symptoms. Still is an example of how the delta version is so dangerous. Right now it appears that we are at the beginning of a 4th wave of virus infections that strongly suggests that we go back to wearing masks even if fully vaccinated. The Israeli snooping phone software apparently got into the French president’s phone raising still further the outrage about the company and its selection of paying clients. More fires in the west are prompting evacuations from large areas. The only way out of this is to burn down at least 70% of all trees in the west to create the equivalent of herd immunity. Sounds like a joke but is not far from what is happening. It will only get worse. The infrastructure bill is n trouble because of the left-wing ultra-liberals (Sanders and Company including AOC) feeling put out by not getting everything they want, such as immigration reform. They seem willing to scuttle the infrastructure bill and get nothing just to make their point. This is really sad and stupid. Amazing. Newsmax, the head of the ultra-right-wing news organization, Chris Ruddy, is gushing over Biden’s handling of the COVID problem. However, just before the gush, one of the Newsmax anchors, Rob Schmitt, claimed that vaccines are “against nature” and some diseases are “supposed to wipe out a certain amount of people”. Hopefully, one of them will be Rob Schmitt. One cannot blame DDT for all the nonsense going on with right-wing Republicans. It was there before, but DDT has unleashed it and given the lies focus. DDT needs to be indicted, convicted, and given good long-term care in a government-run facility. Lock him up.

19 July, MASA plus 179 days out of 1461. According to Vanity Fair, DDT is in the edge of indictment thanks to the testimony arising from a family divorce case. This could wind up with DDT spending his golden years bereft of gold. The case is all about the falsifying of salaries of employees to evade taxes for DDT’s company and for the employees. I’m sure this is the golden tip of the iceberg (to mix metaphors). Biden swerved in the game of chicken he’s playing with Facebook and Zuckerberg. Originally, Biden claimed that Facebook was killing people with COVID misinformation (true in my opinion), but Facebook and Z protested. Biden blinked and came out with “of course Facebook is not killing people”. This is true only in a literal sense (they are not shooting anyone), but in reality, Facebook has allowed the proliferation of false information that has led to masses of people refusing to get vaccinated (microchips, magnetization, sterilization, and so on). I’m vaccinated and have felt no urge to face north. The first of DDT’s “army” of rioters has been sentenced to 8 months in prison on felony charges in spite of claims that he was only following DDT’s orders. Hard to pin this on DDT, even though he clearly voiced a call for insurrection in my opinion. I thought COVID was bad in the US. Look up the statistics in the UK. There were over 47,000 new cases yesterday compared to 9500 cases in the US with the US population (328 million) far larger than the UK (67 million). Boris is clearly a clone of DDT with uncombed hair. As for DDT, indict the evil clown, convict DDT, and throw him into extended stay (lock him up in jail).

18 July: MASA plus 178 out of 1461 days. It has been found that Israeli spyware (military grade) has been used to hack journalists’ and activists’ phones by foreign governments. Basically, anything on the phone could be hacked including turning on the microphone to record private conversations. The devastation in Europe from the excessive rain is more than expected. In Germany, Merkel has promised aid to rebuild. It will take more than a year. Facebook will not back down about publishing misinformation about COVID vaccination or many other topics. Perhaps it is time to take down Facebook. According to the Guardian, Vivek Murthy, the US surgeon general who has accused companies including Facebook of “poisoning information” about coronavirus vaccines, said they were not doing enough to check the online proliferation of false claims. The US Senate has dropped the enhanced tax enforcement from the infrastructure bill. Seems as if Senators are fond of wealthy tax cheats, particularly the Republican Senators. So much for funding the infrastructure plan through increased revenue from stopping cheaters. It looks like OPEC is about to increase oil production, which should lower gas prices and increase pollution and global warming. What’s not to like? COVID continues to spread and expand, mostly among the unvaccinated with a surprising number of fully vaccinated infected people in hospitals. It should be back to facemasks NOW. Speaking about now, let’s lock up DDT NOW.

17 July: MASA plus 177 days. Europe is a disaster with floodwaters finally starting to recede, but with hundreds missing or dead and whole towns destroyed. The question in everyone’s mind is, could this be the new normal or just a once in a 100-year event. I suspect it is the new normal. Biden has come out strongly against the curtailing of the DACA program by one judge and wants congress to do something more permanent. He also blasted the Republican’s effort to curtail voting for increasingly Democratic cities and suburbs. In the long run, Republicans will lose, but in the short run can do a lot of damage. Biden has come out very strongly against the voting limitations being pushed into law in Republican states in response to the Big Lie”. Sigh. Apparently, hackers are stealing the identities of those that died in the condo collapse making it much more difficult for those that survived and their families. I did not realize it, but there are over 70 large fires raging in the western US with some rapidly growing. California is hard hit with fires and water shortages. Interesting. China is backing off of its home-grown vaccine and looking towards a more modern mRNA-type COVID vaccine such as Moderna. The big question is will they steal it or buy it? More shootings, this one in Portland Oregon with 1 killed and several injured. The Hubble telescope is back in operation to produce more spectacular images of the visible universe and extend science. This has been an amazing investment by the US and NASA. DDT has been relatively quiet today. Even so, I hope it all speeds up nosily with indictments and a trial. Lock DDT up.

16 July: MASA plus 176 days. The big news is the devastation in Central Europe (Germany and Belgium) from unexpected floods that have devastated whole towns with 120 known dead. The scenes are horrific with entire houses destroyed and streets running with fast-flowing rivers of water. Unfortunately, the forecast was for more rain. All this rain, while in the US west the drought continues and deepens with devastating fires particularly in Oregon. I am so glad the many of our Republican friends think climate change is a hoax. Interesting testimony in NY in the past few days that shows DDT was directly involved (literally signed the checks) in a criminal tax fraud scheme based on freezing salaries but giving benefits (school tuition, rent on plush apartments, etc.) off the books. This meant DDT did not have to pay payroll taxes and the employees did not pay tax on the off-book amounts either. At the moment DDT is not charged criminally, but that could change. COVID-Delta is rising rapidly in the US, yet the head of CDC calmly reported on the evening news that oh no blithely, vaccinated people do not have to wear masks. This, while evidence is mounting that there are vaccine breakthroughs by the virus with some getting quite sick. Somehow the CDC is purposely ignoring what is happening right in front of their noses. I do not understand. I know it is going to be hard to get people back to wearing masks, but wearing masks is better than dying. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that as of July 6 at least 5,186 patients with COVID vaccine breakthrough infection were hospitalized or died. China is selling vast quantities of its ineffective Sinovac vaccine to WHO while apparently contributing nothing to WHO. If true, this is a real scandal. At least the US is giving away huge amounts of vaccine. The new book out detailing DDT’s avid pursuit of the insurrection on 6 January shows his desire to overthrow the election process. The US escaped a coup. Fortunately, the US military was not behind any political intervention. DDT was dangerous, is dangerous, and needs to be locked up.

15 July: MASA plus 175 days. The Texas battle over voting rights boils on with Democrats in the State House visiting Washington, DC to deny Republicans the quorum needed to pass their version of a Jim Crow law. I only hope they get voted out in 2022. Biden’s big package to change the US into a modern democracy is founded on getting additional funding from those making more than $400,000. That’s damm few people, so expect a big hit as your income goes up from there. I have no problem with this. Wealthy people and families should shoulder the burdens of the country for the privilege of living in a free and prosperous country. After it is all paid for, they will still be rich. How many pairs of shoes do you really need? Biden has decided not to send troops to Haiti except to protect the embassy. I’m not sure what they would do there, so it is probably a good decision. Watch out! There is a solar storm heading towards Earth that may knock out the internet for a while, or if it is really strong, knock out quite a bit more. COVID is taking a deadly toll in the US with an uptick in cases and deaths. U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy said Thursday that misinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic poses an “imminent and insidious threat to our nation’s health” and condemned the spread of what he called “common myths” by those refusing to be vaccinated. He has apparently lost 10 members of his family to COVID. Europe, and especially Germany, is being hit by huge floods that have killed dozens and collapsed buildings. This is all part of a changing weather pattern associated with global warming. Another is the presence of mosquitos in the mountains of Austria where they have not been before and the extreme weather in other parts of the world. Worse will happen in the coming years. DDT is rightly agitated about the Russian report of the help he received from Russia in the 2016 election. The truth hurts, doesn’t it baby. Time to get rid of the loser. Lock DDT up.

 

14 July: MASA plus 174 days. The Washington Post has an article on T (for Tucker) Carlson depicting his rise as a promoter of lies and racist views. What is astounding is how TC rose from a privileged childhood with wealthy parents into a racist opportunist using slander and falsehoods under the financial umbrella of Fox News. You would think that Rupert Murdoch, the renowned chaser of his bottom line at any cost, would repudiate TC instead of steadfastly supporting him. Instead, RM has helped convert TC into FC as a menace to democracy and any sense of honesty. It is an article worth reading if only to know your enemy. Curious aside, a top US general has likened DDT’s last days as President to the early days of Hitler and the Nazi party, warning of a “Reichstag moment” where DDT might attempt a coup to stay in power by using the military. The Texas Senate has passed the Anti-voting Rights Bill to prevent increasing numbers of Democratic voters from throwing their butts out of office. However, the absence of Democrats from the House side prevents a quorum from passing the legislation meaning that the bill will languish and die. If so, good riddance. Biden and his Democratic allies in the Senate are working on a huge package that, if passed by reconciliation, will transform the US into a more modern democracy. Among many things in the bill is an attempt to improve Medicare to cover many additional things such as dental care and lower-cost drugs bringing the US into line with other first-world countries. It also contains funding for education and protection for families destroyed by poverty. According to the Guardian, “Vladimir Putin personally authorized a secret spy agency operation to support a “mentally unstable” Donald Trump in the 2016 US presidential election during a closed session of Russia’s national security council, according to what are assessed to be leaked Kremlin documents.” If true, and it appears the documents are real, it is a damming indictment of interference in US elections. This is totally in line with DDT’s disastrous presidency that the US has survived. Now is the time to put an end to further idiocy and lock DDT up.

13 July: MASA plus 173 days. Danger, danger! NASA is predicting a wobble in the Moon’s orbit will lead to coastal flooding. Flooding that when tied to current global warming sea level rise could cause major damage. I’m 200 feet above sea level, so I should be OK. But for you coastal guys, get your water wings ready. This voting rights issue is getting serious with Republican states fearful of minority voting that might throw them out of office. The fear is real, but the method they are using to protect themselves is odious. We need to make their worst fears come true and throw them out of majorities everywhere. Get out and vote in 2022. Jeff Flake is being nominated as ambassador in Turkey. He was one of those strange Republicans that believed in real governing that helped people while not spending too much. Remember when Republicans were fiscally conservative, and the dinosaurs still roamed the Earth? The Taliban just showed their true colors by executing 20 captured government commandos who surrendered with their hands up. If this is any indication, there will be a bloodbath in Afghanistan if the current government loses. The nutcases continue, this time in Tennessee where Republicans fired the health commissioner (a medical doctor) for supporting vaccination by coming out for immunization month. This goes along with DDT mass meetings where they cheer at not getting the vaccine and possibly dying instead. COVID has jumped in 47 states with data showing high levels of infection containing a thousand times more viruses in lung tissue than the original COVID. On the amusing side, in France vaccinations were lagging until Macron came out with an edit that people in France could not frequent cafes unless they were vaccinated. Suddenly, over 1 million signed up today. Those of you with your heads screwed on straight, please do not relax. DDT has to be defeated and even better thrown in jail. Lock DDT up.

12 July: MASA plus 172 days. Texas Republicans are trying to pass strict voter restriction laws, and Democrats have left the state to deny Republicans a quorum, thereby blocking the enactment for now. Poor Cuba. The citizens there are complaining of a failed dictatorship and the response of the government is to claim that it is a Washington plot to overthrow the dictatorship rather than fix things. According to the publication, The Hill, “The Trump Organization has reportedly dropped it's embattled chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, from some of its subsidiaries after New York prosecutors charged him with multiple counts of fraud and conspiracy.” I wonder how the Weisselberg will react to being thrown under the bus. It’s just the start for him. DDT has the loyalty of a germ. The Hait plot thickens with a Florida-based doctor has been tied to the assassination of the sitting president, He wanted to replace the president with himself. Now he can rot in jail. A little humor in life. American Airlines banned a passenger, a woman bodybuilder, for wearing shorts that were too short. Funny for me reading about it, but not funny at all for her. Biden has a growing crime problem that will be difficult to deal with. In response, he has met with police chiefs to get ideas to try to contain both the crime and the political fallout. Vaccinations are continuing apace at about the 500,000 to 600,000 level per day. It sounds bad when compared to earlier numbers of twice that, but as the days go by, the numbers will accumulate nicely. South Korea is trying to stem COVID infections by reducing the beat of dance music, especially in gyms. I wonder if this has been medically tested? DDT shot his mouth off again saying nasty but meaningless things. He’s off on that witch hunt business again. Good. Throw the witch in jail. Lock DDT up.

11 July: MASA plus 171 days. COVID is on the upswing with less than 50% of the population vaccinated. The standard for stopping the disease is 70%, but this is not true for the Delta variant. It will take a much higher rate of vaccination, closer to 80% or even 90%. I’m not sure just how close, since the data are not available to make such an estimate yet. The reason for the higher estimate is that vaccinated people can carry the virus with little in the way of symptoms and infect the vulnerable and unvaccinated since no one is wearing masks. Cubans are marching and protesting for freedom and against shortages and rising prices when paired with almost fixed salaries. DDT talking to CPAC railed against the “stolen” election during a bitter speech. It’s more of the same racist mean stuff he always spouts, so not particularly newsworthy. Fires in the west are exploding amid tinder-dry conditions. If this keeps up, large portions of the west will become unfit for people and certainly unfit for agriculture. Right now, DDT is unfit for public life in the US. The man needs to pay for any crimes committed. Lock DDT up.

10 July: MASA plus 170 days. News flash: DDT is likely a sociopathic opportunist with the brains of a chipmunk. His lawsuit against Facebook is a joke but makes good shouting points for his utterly stupid rallies, plus it will allow him to raise money from his deluded sheep. He may be stupid, but DDT is cunning, and being cunning makes him a dangerous joke on every one that is willing to back his attacks on America. People get out there and vote republicans out of office, especially at the state level where so much damage is being done, but also in the House and Senate. The farce you are witnessing unfolding in front of your eyes has got to be stopped. Voting restrictions or not, get out and vote, and vote them out. Texas is considering the Jim-Crow-2 voting laws in committee today and will attempt to proceed to a full vote shortly. Whatever the outcome, vote republicans out of office, Texas. The west is about to undergo the second heatwave (117 F predicted in California with up to 130 F in some places) with more likely to follow. Time to get out of Dodge. Go east, young man. Raging fires in California born of the heatwave and drought are threatening California’s power grid. This will make a perfect storm with heat galore and no power for cooling. There are more shootings as usual nowadays, but with no one willing to do anything to stop them, it’s time to stop counting and move onto other things. Other things, like Putin and the extortion of US companies and China’s threats over Taiwan. Perhaps someday when Republicans are out of office, we can come back to sensible gun regulations. This winter may be awful for COVID, the flu, and so-called common colds. Last winter with mask-wearing all three were held at bay. A man who voted for DDT was arrested for violating the voting rules. DDT was right. There was fraud. Subtract 1 vote from DDT’s 72 million. Better yet, subtract one awful person, DDT, from those not in prison. Lock him up.

9 July: MASA plus 169 days. The events of this week show that terrorists can come from any country. At least two US citizens were involved in the assassination of the president of Haiti. In this case, they were both US citizens and former Haitians. Beyond that, not much is known about the details behind the assassination. Elsa passed by gently but pounded New York City flooding subways waist-deep. Apparently, more storms are coming fairly soon. The east gets soaked while the west dries out like a prune. Another extreme heatwave is forecast for the west. The situation for the government in Afghanistan is worsening with the Taliban capturing key border crossing points with Iran and Turkmenistan. Right now, it does not look like the Afghan government has the capability to defend itself. The Texas GOP is again pushing for extreme laws to curtail voting by Democrats in cities, especially those of color. Democrats will try to be absent to deny the Republicans a quorum so they cannot pass the new law. While Republicans will try to lock the doors. My advice to Democrats, leave now, get out of the state. Biden has fired the DDT head of the Social Security Administration who had refused to resign in the middle of his 6-year term. Fortunately, the Supreme Court found in favor of DDT when he tried to do the same thing. So, tough luck buddy, you are unemployed, and a check is in the mail. A miracle today, a kitty cat living on the 9th floor of the collapsed condo was found and reunited with its family. Another condo is under threat and residents were given just 15 minutes to retrieve essentials. That’s crazy. Years of possessions with just 15 minutes to pick through them. DDT’s class-action suit against Facebook and Twitter is going nowhere, but the mere existence of the case is raising money for DDT. We have got to lock DDT up.

8 July: MASA plus 168 days. Biden gave a rationale for the US leaving Afghanistan this summer as an exit from an endless war that is devolving into a civil war. He asked the question of the naysayers, “would you sacrifice your sons and daughters to a civil war”? For most families that do not have their children in the military the answer would be a clear NO. There are dangers to leaving and a lack of justice for those that have become educated, both men and women. The Taliban, if dominant, will set that nation back 100 years and may cause trouble internationally, especially if Al Qaeda obtains a foothold. The future of Afghanistan is tied closely to Pakistan and now the Chinese. Now we need a plan to evacuate the nearly 18,000 Afghan interpreters, allies, and their families before the full withdrawal of U.S. troops. Can the US move that fast? It never has before. It will take direct action from Biden to protect the very people that risked their lives for the US. The drought in California has progressed to the point where Newsom is asking that water usage be decreased by 15%. This will hit the farming areas in California even harder than they have already been hit. Michael Avenatti, former lawyer against DDT in the Stormy Daniels defamation case has been sentenced to 2.5 years n prison for an extortion attempt against Nike. What was he thinking? WOW. DDT’s latest son, Barron, is 6 foot 7 inches at 15 years old and still growing. So far Barron is the only DDT son that has not expressed possible criminal behavior and a desire to destroy democracy in the US. He has been pretty distant from DDT, so perhaps there is hope for him. As for his corrupting father, DDT himself, and the sleaze surrounding him, lock them up.

7 July: MASA plus 167 days. Rudi G just lost his DC law license. How many more does he have? A book about DDT claims a year ago he wanted to suspend the election using COVID as a reason. From anyone else, I would claim hogwash, but from DDT it is entirely credible. Fortunately, the president does not have that power. Just the fact that he thought about it and expressed himself toadies is bad enough. Tropical storm Elsa has moved into Georgia and is head up the east coast bringing a whole bunch of rain and some wind. We need the rain, so welcome Elsa. As has become usual now, more shootings. This time three police officers driving in an unmarked car in Chicago. The World Health Organization is warning of epidemiological stupidity in lifting facemask bans during this pandemic. They’re right. With the Delta variant spreading rapidly, not using a facemask could cost you your life or just be extremely sick. DDT is suing Facebook and Twitter for kicking him off their platform for lies and misinformation on important issues. That should go nowhere. In a leaked video, Republican congressman Chip Roy admits that the Republican Party wants months of chaos and gridlock to prevent anything from getting done. He hopes the chaos caused by Republicans will help them in the 2022 election. It’s DDT stuff all over again without the orange face and hair. Time to lock up DDT.

 

6 July: MASA plus 166 days. Biden keeps moving forward but quietly for the most part. When not quiet he is urging all those not vaccinated to step up and get the vaccine. In those areas of the country, mostly in the unvaccinated South, infection and hospitalization rates are rising with the Delta variant predominating. Biden fell short of his goal to get 70% vaccinated by 4 July but that goal was a wish that was not based on the reality of some refusing to even consider the vaccine. Some of the refuseniks who were dying in the hospital did a deathbed recanting and wished they had gotten the vaccine. Keep trying Joe. Now that the 4 July weekend is over, we now know that over 230 people were killed by gun violence (CNN) and many more injured. This is an epidemic. At a presentation Tuesday, Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo declared a “disaster emergency” on gun violence in New York (Yahoo News) and issued an executive order expediting funding to address the problem, which he called a new “epidemic.”  Articles are being written that the DDT kids are about to turn on their father with Ivanka in the lead. This will be interesting indeed, if true. Ivanka Trump might flip on her dad because she has more to lose, Mary Trump says: 'Her husband's family is legitimately very wealthy'. Biden issued a thinly veiled threat of retaliation concerning the $70 million ransomware attack on US businesses while claiming that the damages to US businesses were minimal. Stay tuned. There is an odd negotiation going on now to reduce the price. Only zero will work. The Republican party is being destroyed by DDT using primary challenges to install hacks who are willing to kiss his butt. Unfortunately, Republican voters are falling for this. Hopefully, in the general election, they will lose big time if Democrats and Independents come out and vote in large numbers. 2022 could be a turning point in the US. We need the cure to get DDT out of public life. Indict, convict, and lock him up.

5 July: MASA plus 165 days. It is a federal holiday, so it is fairly quiet for banks and the stock market. More US troops are coming back from Afghanistan as the situation in the country deteriorates with the Taliban ignoring promises not to wage war. The question now is whether there will be a bloody civil war. Time progress 1 day at a time, but progress stopping gun violence is really slow. Chicago just had a massacre with 81 shot and 13 dead, while gun control is nowhere to be seen thanks to our Republican fiends (not a misspelling) in congress. It Is not clear what it will take for those Yahoos to wake up and do something. Perhaps it will take personal tragedy since they seem to have no feelings of other people’s misery. A professional golfer and two others were killed on a Georgia golf course in a drive-by shooting. In Portland Oregon, 80 shots were fired at houses and apartments with no one hurt. This is insanity on a national scale. Hurricane Elsa is battering Cuba and on its way attack Florida. After Florida, it is not clear yet what path it will take as it comes up the east coast as a heavy rainstorm. Jobs are everywhere as businesses compete for needed labor, but many workers do not want to work at the low wages formerly offered. It is going to be an interesting competition in service-type jobs between higher-paid ($15 per hour) workers and automation. Automation may be a big legacy of the pandemic to the detriment of workers. The Russian located ransomware attackers are demanding a total of $70 million from a variety of businesses. Biden has tasked the intelligence community to locate the source with certainty. He did promise Putin that if there is no crackdown on the Russian criminals there would be a response. If so, what kind and by whom? There is a new COVID variant coming from Peru that seems to bypass the vaccines. If true, we are in for another crisis and round of updated vaccines. It is just a matter of time before it spreads here during our winter season. And then there is the ever-lurking disease in our midst attacking the US democracy with the virus-in-chief DDT. Time to vaccinate the country against this big bug. Lock DDT up.

4 July: MASA plus 164 days. The 4th has come and gone with nothing much bad happening. A storm is approaching Florida and the demolition of the damaged condo is proceeding trying to beat the storm. Because it is the 4th and a Sunday nothing much is happening on the DDT front either. The fun begins again tomorrow. All US troops are leaving Afghanistan very soon and the Chinese have plans to move in. More shootings, this in in Fort Worth Texas. Barely news anymore. The dominant form of COVID in California is not the Delta variant. Australia has observed that just passing someone in the hall for a few seconds is sufficient to cause infection. This variation is now spreading to the rest of the US with the outcome unknown. Fauci is warning about the spread of this variant among those not vaccinated. Astronomers have used AI to calculate the shape of the universe. For those of you in the US, I hope you had a good Independence Day. Now back to reality where we can lock DDT up.

3 July: MASA plus 163 days. Tomorrow is the celebration of US independence day (from the Brits) but more symbolically as a country heading towards a true democratic form of government. It’s been a rocky road getting there and still is a work in progress. Today it feels like we are going backward with Republicans doing everything they can to suppress the voting rights of minorities. Eventually, it will backfire on them with Republicans out of office and their egregious attacks on voters will be reversed. The US has been down this road before and survived. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee of success for righting the destruction occurring now. Success will only occur if in 2022 people get out and vote the deplorables out of office. DDT is now comparing his tax and bank fraud case to a communist dictatorship type of trial. He sounds stupid. The indictments and resulting court cases will take time with the outcome unsure. This 4th of July holiday coming up celebrating our nation’s democracy is an ideal time to reflect on the harm this one demented individual has done to the US with the aid of his cowardly butt-kissing Republican colleagues. He will not be locked up tomorrow or the day after but in the end, DDT needs to be in jail locked up.

2 July: MASA plus 162 days. The implications of the Supreme Court decision to make it easier for states to limit voting are just settling into everone's mnd. This is the time for Congress to rewrite the voting rights act to prevent the justices from meddling in free and fair elections. The majority opinion was pure self-justification and defiance of the law as written by Congress. Thanks to republican attacks, election officials are quitting for their own safety, physical and legal. It is hard to believe that Roberts could write such nonsense. Tax experts reviewing the DDT case in NY are saying that the case against DDT and his organization is very strong. You should expect to hear much bleating and moaning from DDT. China’s Xi has doubled own on threats claiming that he will build the world’s largest and most powerful army that will be controlled by the Party and that he will use if he wants to. Not good for world peace. The Biden Administration and the US Commerce secretary seemed to take the bluster in stride, but underneath there is unease since Xi seems to be a person not giving a damn about international norms and earned respect. There are climate change fires blazing in Canada and an early hurricane bearing down in Florida. That hurricane will make cleaning up the collapsed condo much worse. At the moment only one Canadian village has been burnt to the ground. US unemployment has dropped sharply. Bill Cosby is out of jail on a technicality. The technicality was a legal agreement not to prosecute in a civil case that the next prosecutor then ignored. Let’s get on with it, NY. Turn the CFO Allen Weisselberg, and then go after the real cheat and lock DDT up.

1 July 2021: MASA plus 161 days. The “fun” begins with the indictment of the DDT organization and Allen Weisselberg (CEO) who may of may not reveal long-hidden secrets. What will DDT do to prevent this man from talking? Tune in here or in your newspaper as the sordid saga unfolds. The Supreme Court today decided to gut the voting rights act and approved state voting restrictions. It’s now up to the Senate to write new legislation that ties the hand of the Supreme court. The Republican era of Jim Crow is back unless Congress fixes this problem. Attorney-General Garland ordered a halt to federal executions. I did not know he could halt federal executions but am grateful that he is able to stop them and the ever-present possibility of executing an innocent person. For the truly heinous crimes, life in prison with few privileges will do nicely. Pelosi has named members of the select committee to investigate the events of 6 January including Liz Cheney (a Republican), but one of the few with any integrity. China Xi is becoming quite threatening, essentially promising war over Taiwan to force complete reunification. This is very disturbing in light of the rapid expansion of their military and now new nuclear missile sites. Here’s hoping that the indictment bears sour fruit for DDT. Lock him up.

30 June: MASA plus 160 days. Who would have believed that 160 days have passed without DDT defecating on the office of the president? Sure, the poop still continues from the sidelines in the form of dyspeptic remarks about who is a loser and who will kiss butt, and how terrible things have become under Joe B. The presence of relative quiet and good leadership is refreshing. Now that New York is getting ready to “drop the hammer” on DDT’s organization in the form of a criminal indictment (supposed to be tomorrow), the quiet may get louder. Yeah, there will be some shrieks about witch hunts or political vendettas, but in the end, we may get lucky and get rid of DDT permanently in a padded gold-colored jail cell. Sad on a personal level, but not so sad on a national level, Donald Rumsfeld is no more. He’s the person that so screwed up the aftermath of the Iraq war that the US wound up squandering billions and many young US lives. We are still paying the price today. Historians will discuss the damage done by this man inside the Bush administration along with Dick Cheney. The House is set to investigate the 6 January riot and insurrection in spite of objections from Republican cowards. The truth may be ugly, but it must be heard. Global warming has taken a toll in Oregon with 63 recorded heat-related deaths so far. The toll comes from a lack of air conditioning in some cases, but even if A/C were available the power grid would not be able to handle the load. This is where Biden’s infrastructure plan is really needed to bee up the nation's electrical grid. This especially true with the push for reducing fossil fuels in favor of electricity. Power outages in the US will become common. My advice, if you own your home, get solar panels. Eric Adams (leading NYC mayoral candidate) is having trouble with the complicated math in a ranked-choice election. He is gradually losing his initial lead rankling his bruised ego as the ranking counting proceeds. Reminds me of DDT and his cries of fraud and purported race discrimination (in his case). As for DDT, lock him up, the sooner the better.

29 June: MASA plus 159 days. Ivanka and Jared are helping at the condo collapse site by donating some money for food. That is very nice. The heat wave in the Northwest is not letting up, and there are now power outages. Washington State and Oregon are totally unprepared for such weather. They better dig in and prepare. This is likely the first of many as global warming shifts into high gear. The Supreme Court is allowing the federal moratorium on eviction to stand. That buys about a month or so. Canada is reporting dozens dead from the heat wave. Nothing new on the DDT front except complaints from DDT. The infrastructure plan is still depending on moderates and Republicans and a very doubtful means of paying for the plan. In fact, the payment method seems totally bogus except for one aspect. That aspect is beefing up the IRS to enable it to catch tax cheats both past and present. This last is a good idea anyway just to make the system fair to most people that honestly do pay their taxes. Republicans are not happy with the IRS going after the wealthy and cheating corporations. Putin is claiming that the US monitored the British warship going across international waters near Crimea formally recognized as part of Ukraine, but, of course, not by Russia. Putin is threatening actually firing on the next ship that tries such a transit claiming that the west will not risk way by retaliating. This is a very dangerous game. It is astounding that only 56% of Republican voters agree that Biden won the 2020 election. That means that 44% of Republican voters are either to dumb to understand the system of are bent in some form of overthrowing the current government. All this fermented by a demented DDT trying to salve his self-focused sense of personal hurt from rejection. DDT needs to be further rejected. Lock him up.

28 June: MASA plus 158 days. DDT is growing apoplectic over New York’s pursuit of criminal charges against his CFO and against the entire DDT organization. He should because it is starting to look really serious. The NY AG met with DDT’s lawyers on Monday to discuss whether or not an indictment was appropriate. There is no clear answer yet from the prosecutors. DDT in his usual tirade is calling the prosecutors “rude, nasty, and totally biased”. It is a witch hunt with the witch clearly identified by every characteristic except a straw broom. He’s too fat to fly. More shootings. This one a drive-by shooting that killed one 9-year old child in Charlottesville, Virginia. The Pacific Northwest is suffering under extreme heat over 115 degrees in some places. This is an area of the US that has never really needed air-conditioning in the past. It means that there are a huge number of really vulnerable people with no place to go for relief, a serious health hazard. No one event is indicative of climate change, but the series of events in the west and storms in the east sure are suggestive that climate change is real and deadly. Not funny, but amusing anyway, California has banned state-funded travel to Florida and five other states, not because of COVID, but because of state-sponsored discrimination against gay people and the LBGTQ community. Australia, formerly noted for its response to COVID, is now under winter lockdown because of the prevalence of infections from the delta variant. This should be taken as a warning in the US for next October-December. Facebook just received a reprieve from a monopoly lawsuit from the Federal Trade Commission that was initiated during the DDT administration. The decision rested on the incompetence of drawing up the terms of the suit. With DDT ever more on the defensive and lashing out, NY needs to get him and his organization indicted and tried. Hopefully resulting in DDT being locked up.

 

27 June: MASA plus 157 days. The situation at the collapsed Florida condo building is hopeless. At this point, there are probably no more living people under the rubble. The real issue now, other than the grief of friends and relatives, is why nothing was done after the engineers report 3 years ago. Families are frustrated at the glacial pace of search and rescue pace not realizing how careful the people have to be conducting the searches. I’ll have to give one to Bill Barr. He did come out publicly and call DDT’s claim of election fraud BS. Whoa. Q’Anon is getting irritated with the same old DDT speech at his rallies. That’s good because he bores me too even though he is dangerous. A funny headline that North Koreans are worried about Kim Jong Un losing weight, so much so that his watch is loose on his arm. One hopes that he survives. His 2nd in command sister is worse than Kim. Meanwhile, his nuclear and rocket programs continue unabated. Of more worry is the election of a vicious hardliner in Iran as president and possible successor to the ultimate religious leader. I wonder how long Iranians will put up with this form of tyranny, particularly after a strongly rigged fake election. This guy is really bad and maybe a disaster for any kind of peace in the middle east. Sigh. More shootings. This one in Philadelphia PA. and the heatwave on the northwest continues with super high temperatures. There could be a lot of deaths. Speaking of death, the delta variant is becoming more serious. Some experts are taking booster shots against the delta variant. Now if we just could take a booster shot against DDT. Oh yes, very effective, just lock him up.

26 June: MASA plus 156 days. Biden, the clock is ticking on your goals. I hope you can get around pure evil (McConnell) in the Senate. The Biden is backing off from a serious blunder and attempting to put the infrastructure bill back on track. He has now retracted the threat to not sign the infrastructure bill unless his larger bill is also passed.  Also, in the mid-term elections, Democrats have got to pick up seats, not lose them. Get out there and campaign. That Florida condo disaster is looking more suspicious as there was an engineering report 3 years ago that found serious structural deficiencies, which seems to have been ignored. If you are in the pacific northwest, run, do not walk, to get out of a record heatwave of over 100 degrees. OMG. DDT is out on the campaign trail again, this time in Ohio as part of his Save America theme. Save America for DDT and his ultra-rich buddies, certainly not for its regular citizens. DDT is back on conducting rallies and endorsements for his favorite sycophants. The man is so dangerous to democracy along with his extreme right-wing followers that he needs to be removed from the political system. This won’t stop the Russia-style disinformation campaigns that he has perfected, namely lie so often that no one can keep up. This veritable flood of misinformation undermines democracy in the name of free speech. It has got to be stopped. Step 1 is to be able to convict DDT of a provable crime and then lock him up.

25 June: MASA plus 155 days. Biden has his infrastructure bill. It’s smaller than he wanted but still effective. For some reason, he is tying the bipartisan agreement on this bill to another goal, more help for individuals. While a lofty goal, it may jeopardize the first goal, infrastructure (bridges, roads, and internet). Hopefully, Biden knows what he is doing. Republicans have warned that they will withdraw support if he links this bill to a Democrat-only bill on more general ideas like college tuition loan forgiveness. On the COVID front, rates and deaths are still falling but the Delta variant may undo the statistics among the unvaccinated. Vaccinations are still occurring but at rates of less than 1 million per day. According to Scientific Magazine, there is additional hope for combatting this disease and other viral diseases from the manufacturing of custom-made protein nanoparticles. Laboratory tests are very promising with human trials starting shortly. Derek Chauvin got sentenced today to 22.5 years for the murder of George Floyd. It’s not a life sentence, but one that is long enough, especially since he will have to be kept isolated from other prisoners for his own safety. The collapse of the Miami building is terrifying with the number of probable deaths. That building has been sinking unevenly for years with cracks showing, yet inspections gave the building a clean bill of health. Something was wrong there. The official report on UFOs is inconclusive, so either their technology is so advanced or there was nothing there that was real. It looks like the DDT organization is going to face criminal charges but so far no mention of the chief culprits, DDT himself and his family. Attorney-General Garland announced federal lawsuits against the Georgia Republican perversion of voting rights law. Strangely, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said, "It is no surprise that they would operationalize their lies with the full force of the federal government. I look forward to meeting them, and beating them, in court." This, even though the Georgia law took away his power and put him in legal jeopardy during the next election. New York, we are still waiting. Indict, try, convict, and lock DDT up.

24 June: MASA plus 154 days. My bad. fell asleep on the job. To compensate, I wrote a bit longer look at happenings in the US for 25 June. As always, when do we want DDT locked up? Lock him up now.

23 June: MASA plus 153 days. There is not much Biden can do by himself about the proliferation of guns. However, he is going after illegal gun sales and illegal dealers in an effort to decrease the number of shootings. This might not work, but at least the motive is correct. The Republican-dominated Michigan senate initiated an investigation of voting and, surprise, they found no evidence of fraud during the 2020 election. It’s mostly for show, but Kamala Harris will visit the border tomorrow to learn about stemming the tide of illegals entering the US. Simultaneously with announcing her visit, Biden has dumped DDT’s head of the Border Patrol and will install one of his own. As expected, Republicans have shut down the voting rights bill including the one that was agreeable to them. Republicans know that if all eligible voters are allowed to vote, the Republicans are a finished racist party. The delta variant is rising rapidly in the US as it has elsewhere. It is not 20% of all cases. Fortunately, the vaccine seems to work against the delta variant, but the increased infectivity spells woe for the unvaccinated who are mostly Republicans. Natural selection? Curious! Russia says warning shots were fired at a British destroyer to get it to turn back in Ukrainian international waters, but the Brits deny it never happened. Crises! Subway’s tuna sandwich appears to have no tuna according to DNA tests. Subway denies the allegation. This sounds like a crime, a crime of fraud. Now, what is really in the “tuna” sandwich? America wants to know. We also want to know when DDT will be indicted, tried, and if found guilty, locked up.

22 June: MASA plus 152 days. There was a demonstration in front of Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s home in Arizona protesting her support for continuing the filibuster rule. Some left when asked, others had to be removed peaceably. No one hurt. It is clear that the US will not meet Biden’s guess at 70% vaccination until later this summer. Still an amazing difference from the bumbling attempts of DDT. Part of the problem is from anti-vaxers and part from sheer unwillingness to make the effort to get vaccinated. There are some amazing groups in this mix that include some medical personnel and young people that think they are immortal or that if they do get sick they will recover with no consequences. Both are ridiculous. The NY District Attorney is going after the DDT organization, Matthew Calamari, bodyguard, Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg. 153 workers either resigned or got fired from the Houston Methodist hospital system after refusing to get vaccinated against COVID-19. Perhaps losing their jobs will encourage them to do the intelligent thing. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has set July 8 as a date for a special legislative session on the voting rights bill. Texas is another state going Jim Crow. China is now going furiously after Canada for complaining about China’s violations of human rights. I can imagine that China is sensitive when their behavior is so bad and so obvious to the world. Bitcoin’s fall has destroyed all of this year’s gains. And, it may go further. Somewhere out there in the unusual silence lurks the witch, DDT. Let the witch hunt continue. Lock him up

21 June: MASA plus 151 days. Both Biden and Obama are behind Manchin’s voting rights bill. It is time something like this passes and became law. The garbage the Republicans are doing to destroy democracy must be stopped. I think that a lot of people do not realize how dangerous the curtailment of voting rights to their own personal lives. Remember DDT still lurks out there with a desperate need to be back in power. YAY, Covid deaths have dipped below 300 per day, the first time since March 2020. Let’s keep moving down to zero. Again, nothing much happened today. Iran has a new hard-line president, which could cause some problems. Left-wing activists are going after (doxing) the people committing violence on the extreme right to the point of them losing jobs. In spite of the threat of inflation and way in the future increased interest rates, the stock market recovered today. This looks like automatic machine trading that benefits big traders and screws the small investor unless they just sit and hold. Enough for today. Just lock him up and save the US.

20 June: MASA plus 150 days. It is Sunday and it was pretty quiet today. There was a horrific car accident in Alabama (9 children killed) likely caused by the storm. Israel is greatly upset if there is an Iran nuclear deal. I do not blame them sine a nuclear strike on Israel would be an existential threat. Two bombs would almost totally destroy Israel since it is so small geographically. OMG. The rancher, Ammon Bundy, that took over federal property is running for the governor if Idaho. I certainly hope he loses. He never should have been let off for the offense. France looks like it is in for change with Macron’s party losing big in local elections. Brazil is still having increasing rates of COVID as fury mounts over Bolsonaro’s handling of the pandemic. South America is an scary condition. Let’s hope that the Delta variant ravaging everywhere does not have much effect on the highly vaccinated in the US. DDT does not get any mention today as he was asleep. Still, lock him up.

19 June: MASA plus 149 days. It’s Juneteenth (June 19th). One would hope that the country learns something positive from the horrors of slavery, the massacre in Tulsa, the smaller horrors of lynching perpetrated up until moderately recent times, and the past and current persistent police brutality ending in killings without reason. The stories are endless, from death to property confiscation, to blatant discrimination in jobs and education. One can only hope that the country is on a road to rapid improvement.

18 June: MASA plus 148 days. The Catholic church is getting into politics by trying to shame Biden for believing that he should not force his personal beliefs (against abortion) on others. I hope he tells the Bishops politely, to put it under their high hats. Here comes the first storm of the year headed for Louisiana and Florida. It’s a tropical storm, so no particular wind damage, but lots of rain. We need to ship that rain west where it is needed. Places in Arizona were 118 degrees today and yesterday. I know, I know, it is dry heat. Once you experience the heat and dehydration at temperatures of 110 and above, the phrase dry heat does not mean much. Air conditioners are running full blast sucking up scarce electricity. Also, bitcoin mining is coming to the US from China because the Chinese government is getting concerned about the gigawatts of energy needed to “mine” bitcoin with hundreds of computers. Where are they going, you ask? Texas is where. Where the energy is cheap, and the state government does about care about the environment. Speaking about Texas, Texas is dialing back people's A/C to save energy while allowing the bitcoin miners to use many gigawatts of energy (1000 Megawatts per Gigawatt). I was listening to an interview tonight with Michael Cohen (DDT’s former lawyer) who was talking about DDT’s CFO who knows everything about money transactions and the fact that the NY DA is going after him (even though they already have the evidence) to turn on DDT and spill the “beans” (tell the truth). If not, he is threatened with jail time along with some of his children who were also involved. Cohen has been cooperating with the DA and thinks that indictments will be handed down this summer. DDT is worried and screaming witch hunt, and he is right. It is a witch hunt and lock the witch (DDT) up.

17 June: MASA plus 147 days. A useful G7 plus a meeting with Putin with some positive overtones. It is good to have a professional in charge who puts the country and our allies first. Tomorrow is Juneteenth (a verbal smashup of June and 19th, really that is the origin of the “word”). The Supreme court ruled in favor of the ACA (Obamacare) and for the right of religious organizations to discriminate at their religion deems proper. Global warming and the hurricane season is starting early. This year might be a doozy for storms. A police officer was indicted for unnecessary violence and the entire crowd control rapid response team of the police department resigned. Replacing them will not be easy, but perhaps it is better this way. More shootings, of course. This one in Arizona. Wow. Putin had strong praise for Biden describing Biden as really with it and totally alert. "Biden is a professional, and you have to be very careful in working with him to make sure you don’t miss anything. He doesn’t miss anything; I can assure you.", Putin said. There is growing support for Manchin’s version of the voting rights act, but not much among Republicans. Republicans know that if more people vote, they lose. Enough tonight. I am not even going to say, “Lock ??? up.

 

16 June: MASA plus 146 days. We may not have much agreement in congress, but we now have a new holiday “Juneteenth” (June 19th) to celebrate the end of slavery in the US and finally in Texas. Only 14 die-hard Republicans voted against the holiday’s establishment. Pretty good for a party of White Supremacists. Biden has had a really successful G7 meeting in Europe and with a separate meeting with Putin. Putin made all the usual protestations of innocence with the straight face of a professional liar. It will be interesting to see if Biden’s matter-of-fact approach improves relations, especially the ransomware threat. The new Texas law of open carrying of firearms by anyone licensed to own a gun just went into effect. On another note, DDT is traveling to Texas to meet with the governor, Abbott to complain about the “stolen” election and his plans to run again in 2024. Climate change is hitting home hard, at least in the west. The heatwave out there is horrific except near the ocean. There will be power outages and wildfires galore. Hey, the “New” department of education just set aside 500 million to help 18,000 defrauded college students who took loans for certain for-profit colleges. It’s finally hitting home. People in hospitals, sick and some dying are almost universally the ones not vaccinated. Natural selection against stupidity might be a good thing. The people in GAZA do not learn. They launched incendiary balloons into Israel and then are surprised when Israel strikes back. I guess this was a test of the new government in Israel. If DDT does try to run in 2024, he needs to do it from his jail cell. Lock the seditionist fraudster up.

14 June: MASA plus 145 days. Putin’s propaganda machine has been working overtime making threats tantamount to starting a war. In all probability, this is just noise, but dangerous noise, nonetheless. Between Ukraine and Russian hacking of commercial enterprises, the US is getting quite tired of Russian criminals getting away with the disruption of the US economy. Exactly what to do about it is not clear at all. Counter-hacking by the west would be very difficult outside of the government. The use of the government directly poses severe dangers and the possibility of escalation. The meeting is coming up shortly and promises to be a “doozy”. Today, Putin dismissed charges of hacking and suppressing dissent by claiming the U.S. does the same thing. He’s right, the US does snoop, but does not play the ransom game of disabling enterprises until payment is made. More shootings and deaths this week. So far almost 20,000 people have died this year by gun violence with nearly half by suicide. That means 10,000 have died by the hands of others. Time to do something about limiting guns. Bernie Sanders has weighed in on the new bipartisan infrastructure agreement brewing in the Senate. Briefly, he will not vote for it. According to Bernie it doesn’t go far enough and does not tax the rich more. Unless there is strong Republican support, the US will get nothing. Who cares if a few bridges fall down? A small detour to the next one still standing will get you there. Oh good, 29% of Republicans do not want a vaccine. Must be natural selection at work. Pretty soon DDT will complain that too many republicans are dying in proportion to their percent of the population and that Democrats should commit suicide to compensate. Hey, come 2022 you Democrats and Independents, get out and vote and throw the Republican bums out. The first step is to put DDT away, Lock him up.

13 June: MASA plus 144 days. Oh no! Israel’s Bibi is gone (for now) to an unstable coalition of centrist parties with the extreme right. The new guy may be worse than Netanyahu. The only saving grace is that he may be more dependent on the US than dear old Bibi and thus more willing to behave. Biden at the G7 seems to have been a hit. I hope they give some kind of summary of Biden’s meeting with Putin and Erdogan. Looks like DDT Hoovered up private telephone information from his Whitehouse staff as well as from Congress. Yes, it is something that J. Edgar would have done without batting an eye. OMG…more shootings in Savannah, Chicago, and Austin. This is getting to be impossible and very scary. We have got to control guns. Biden seems to have negotiated some sort of deal with Putin on Cybercriminals. It’s interesting, if true, but of course, the devil is in the details. For example, if Putin wants an American on haha Trumped-up charges, would we send an American citizen into the land of zombie justice. Somehow it would not play well here, especially if it looked like political revenge for disagreeing publicly with Putin. It looks like electric vehicles are set to be the mainstay of new cars in the very near future. Both Ford and GM, and some Asian companies, are gearing up big time to sell EV from trucks to cars. All this in defiance of the idiot that we used to have as president. New York, are you listening? Lock DDT up, the sooner the better.

12 June: MASA plus 143 days. Biden is about to meet with Putin with a pretty firm agenda of things he wants to discuss and perhaps resolve. If it goes well, it makes a real difference, especially with the cyber ransomware attacks. Of course, there are other big issues, not the least is Ukraine and Belarus, and Syria. This is good! Hamas, the mid-east terror group has gone after House representative Ilhan Omar and her remarks equating the US and Israel to Hamas. Hamas objects, painting themselves as pure. What garbage, but pretty funny when one thinks of Ilhan Omar. John Dean, remember him from the Nixon era, calls the surveillance by the DDT Justice Department, “Nixon on Steroids”. This is not a really good comparison, since Nixon did not have the electronic capabilities available to  DDT. I suspect that if Nixon had the capabilities back then his “Enemies List” would have been larger and more repugnant. There has been progress at the G7 meeting on climate change with a pledge to reduce coal usage. This is good, but nowhere near enough. Getting off fossil fuels as much as possible as quickly as possible is the only solution. Finally, the first case on vaccine mandates as a condition for employment has come down in favor of a Houston hospital dismissing claims from vaccine resisters on the hospital's staff. The big thing is that Biden has partially restored the US from the damage done by DDT and his clumsy attempt to isolate the US from the rest of the world. We cannot have a repeat of DDT. Indict, convict and lock DDT up.

11 June: MASA plus 142 days. Another rumble is about to start. The DOJ is starting an investigation about the crooked DDT administration seizing Democratic House member's phone information. It is another big reason why DDT must never be in a position of power again. He needs to be convicted of a crime. It should be easy as there are so many of them. AG Garland is going to enforce voting rights laws and laws barring discrimination. He has greatly increased the size of the civil rights enforcement division. It should be interesting to see how this plays out. The bipartisan infrastructure deal that has been hammered out has the leaders of both parties hesitant. I say, go for it and try to pass other legislation later. At least it will get the needed repairs started before bridges just fall down. Another bipartisan bill is in the works with an antitrust bill that could break up the big internet social media companies. This would affect Facebook, Google, and Apple for starters. Climate change is getting faster. There is a time-lapse movie, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SJ_8As47c0, of the Antarctic ice sheet breaking up scary. Hey! Putin just announced that he thinks he ca work with Biden. I’m not sure what that means. It is a replay of the fiasco with DDT where Putin had DDT kissing his shoes. We’ll see. Another good reason to make sure DDT is locked up.

10 June: MASA plus 141 days. The tussle for the soul of Manchin has begun in an advertisement war n West Virginia trying to push Manchin on the critically needed voting rights legislation. As it is, the Republicans are gradually pushing the US into a minority rule posture resembling a dictatorship. DDT was incompetent, fortunately, when he tried for most of his term to declare himself king instead of president culminated by an attempted insurrection on 6 January 2021. If democracy survives in the US, history will not be kind to our idiot-in-chief, DDT. One hopes that the country is now forewarned against any attempt of a re-coronation of DDT by legal (election) or any other means. A second-round would be a true disaster. Headlines are screaming, “Is this the beginning of the end of American Democracy?”, and “Our republic’s last hope could be Joe Manchin, God help us”. Does this sound extreme? It is a fair warning of what could be ahead if the Republican Party as presently constituted with or without DDT is allowed to continue is present course. This can be stopped in 2022 if democrats turn out in huge numbers and vote the extremist Republicans out of office. Just remember, if you don’t, they will come after your neighbor, and then, later, will come after you. Just as an example, under DDT the department of justice DOJ seized records from Apple concerning accounts from democratic House members and their families including the House intelligence committee chairman, Adam Schiff. Aided by then-Attorney General, Barr, this is the behavior of dictatorships. It looks like there is the possibility of a new agreement for a pared-down infrastructure bill (1.2 trillion), missing some climate change features, that might pass muster. The Texas governor is promising to continue DDT’s ineffectual border wall. Texas needs to get rid of this governor for ridiculous ideas and his anti-democratic voter restrictions. As for DDT, it is time for him to be indicted, convicted, and thrown in jail. Lock him up.

9 June: MASA plus 140 days. Here’s the global good news. The Biden Administration is going to essentially donate 500 million COVID vaccine doses, an enormous amount. Here’s the global bad news. There are currently 7.8 billion people living on this planet, so 500 million doses will not go far. It is not clear that other countries will come even close to the Biden donation. What bout giving away patent rights, you say. Good thought, except it will take about 2 years to set up manufacturing facilities in other countries using the mRNA technique. The only way this is going to work now is if the existing facilities keep churning out vaccine doses for global use. Biden has ended negotiations with intransigent Republicans on the infrastructure bill both on the spending end and on a change in the tax laws to pay for it. Let’s see what happens next. The voting rights bill passed by the house seems dead in the Senate with Republicans reacting to the fact that as long as they are in the thrall of the right-wing, having everyone vote would mean they lose. They need to restrict the vote as much as possible to the white-supremacist portion of the electorate. So far they are doing just this at the state level. It will take a Federal law to stop Republicans from implementing minority rule at both Federal and state levels. This kind of suppression works in Russia and some 3rd world countries, so why not in the US too. Russia has just outlawed Navalny’s political movement since it threatens the cozy corruption so fondly embraced by Putin and cronies. Hey, Tik-Tok is back as is We-Chat pending further investigation into the companies’ relationship with the Chinese government. Millions of dollars have been funneled to the GOP from DDT’s “Victory” fund that the receiving organizations conveniently “forgot” to report as required by election law. So crooked. Time to get rid of the crook in chief, DDT. Lock him up.

8 June: MASA plus 139 days. Today is a big day for bipartisan cooperation in the Senate with the passage (68 to 32) of a huge tech and manufacturing bill that aims to level the playing field between the US and China. This time, not by DDT style restrictions, but by supporting research and development in the US. The bill includes funding for scientific research, subsidies for chipmakers and robot makers, and an overhaul of the National Science Foundation (81 billion over 5 years). If this is going to be successful, we also have to tighten up computer security so that expensive technology is not simply stolen. Biden’s plans for improving US society are falling on hard times in the Senate with Manchin playing hypocrite on voting rights. Pelosi went after Manchin for his stand on voting rights. Biden is looking for a new coalition that of necessity involves a few Republicans. Good luck with that. All it would take is 2 Republicans for some of the legislation that Biden wants to pass. The vice president was on the receiving end of virulent criticism from the left-wing (AOC) of the democratic party for asking Guatemalans not to come to the US. Kamala Harris can’t win trying to work on immigration. The criminal probe against DDT is heating up as can be seen with the steam coming out of DDT’s orange ears. It will be so interesting for him to be testifying or answering questions under oath. Apparently, there was a leak of tax information of the extremely rich showing that they paid almost no taxes legally on enormous wealth growth. One even got a refund of $4000 on claimed losses. This is unlike DDT, who also appeared to minimize taxes by cheating. Time to try and convict DDT, and then lock him up.

7 June: MASA plus 138 days. The DOJ has recovered most of the ransom paid by Colonial Pipeline. The ransomware computer problem has got to be stopped. It is dangerous to the victim and because of the temptation for retaliation (mostly Russia). They caught the idiots that shot a 6-year-old boy in a car as an act of road rage in California. Democrats are getting tired of Senator Manchin and his grandstanding on useless principal pretending that he is saving democracy when in reality he is just covering his political butt in right-wing West Virginia. Kamala Harris is meeting with Guatemala’s president to try to limit immigration. Other than saying don’t come, I hope there is more substantive action. Some progress in Africa as the leader of Boko Haram has died, but the bad side of this was that the government had nothing to do with hunting him down. It was ISIS. Nothing to say about DDT tonight. Just lock him up as soon as possible and save the USA.

 

6 June: MASA plus 137 days: I would like to say that all is quiet, but that is simply not true. There was another mass shooting at a graduation party in Miami-Dade with 3 killed and many injured. To add insult to injury, a California judge ruled that assault weapons are not a problem. He likened them to a Swiss Army knife (a small utility knife). This judge is crazy. It is kind of difficult to commit mass murders with a 3-inch knife, even with the included scissors. The immigration issue is front and center again with the vice president flying to Guatemala (her plane had to turn around for mechanical difficulties) to discuss the problem with Central American leaders. Fox News’ Chris Wallace confronted Senator Joe Manchin (D W-VA) over being naïve concerning bipartisanship on getting important things done. Some good news. It looks like there may be a pill that can defeat the COVID-19 virus being tested by Pfizer. The results so far are promising, but preliminary. DDT is airing his grievances ahead of the republican party’s forming of its political agenda heading into the 2022 mid-term elections. DDT's returning to the political stage is dangerous to America and to the Republican party. The only viable solution is to lock him up.

5 June: MASA plus 136 days. Well, not so sane. The idiot DDT is rocking on his hobby horse again trying to disrupt the democratic process. This time in Georgia, where the Republican-dominated State legislature passed a resolution censuring the Georgia Secretary of State Raffenspurger for following the law and running an honest election. DDT also went after governor Kemp for certifying the results in Georgia. This is sad and sick. And of course, DDT is after Biden for being weak on China when in reality it was DDT that was weak and ineffectual in his dealings with China and his kissing up to Xi. DDT really believed that China was paying the cost of the tariffs he imposed instead of the reality of American companies and consumers paying. Oh well, elect a crooked vindictive dummy as president and that is what you get. It is hard to believe that a Federal judge struck down California’s ban on assault weapons. The state will appeal. The big news of the day is that the G7 adopted a 15% corporate minimum tax for all member states. No more hiding in Ireland. DDT is trying to force Pennsylvania to do a stupid false audit in the style of Arizona. Time to cancel the Republican party and get DDT locked up.

4 June: MASA plus 135 days. The DDT has uninvited Mark Z to lunch at the White House. I’m sure Mark is devastated by the prospect. And this all because DDT has been banned from Facebook for 2 whole years. So sad. The republicans and Biden are still far apart on the infrastructure bill even though the dollar differences are getting smaller. The Republicans want to repurpose already obligated funds whereas Biden wants new funding. And then there is the tax reform issue and the minimum corporate tax (15%). Apparently, there are no x-file aliens floating around our skies even though there seem to be unidentified objects. Whatever they are, the objects seem to be able to move throughout the atmosphere at extraordinary speeds without causing a disturbance. Keep looking guys. Housing shortage? Not in DDT properties. You can get a DDT condo at bargain prices because no one wants to live in them. There are new COVID variants that seem really scary. I hope the scientists can get booster shots for these guys before they get us. Putin is warning the West not to meddle in Belarus after the arrest of Raman Pratasevich after the airline hijacking. Good news, the G-7 members are close to a deal setting the minimum corporate tax rate at 15%. That will help everyone a lot. The jobs report was quite good this month suggesting a recovery well under way. Now, we just need to see DDT locked up.

3 June: MASA plus 134 days. Biden is doing his best to compromise with republicans on the infrastructure bill he wants to pass. The bill has been cut in half, the DDT tax cuts will remain, and the corporate lowered tax rates will stay low. However, Biden is trying to beef up tax code enforcement (Republicans opposed) and requiring that the largest companies pay at least a tax of 15% (Republicans opposed). My bet is that the Republicans will not cooperate even with Biden coming almost all the way to the Republican position. At that point, Biden will have to go it alone without them. Facebook is finally reacting to reality and will no longer shield politicians who post hate speech. This is long overdue. This follows DDT being kicked off after repeated use of vile hate speech and incitement to riot. China is continuing its policy of cracking down on free speech even to the point of trying to alter the history of the Tiananmen Square massacre. China is getting close to the horror story of George Orwell’s prophetic book, 1984, trying to obtain total control over people’s lives and to punish all protests. Oh boy, DDT is restarting rallies with the high probability that he will also rehash the 2020 election. The problem is that DDT’s attempt to undo the election is doomed to failure, but still can undermine the democratic process of peaceful succession. Even the sycophant Pence says that he will never see eye to eye with DDT about 6 January. It is time to indict the sucker, convict him, and lock DDT up in jail.

2 June: MASA plus 133 days. Republicans are still fuming over their failed attempt to curtail voting rights in Texas. So mad is the governor that he threatened to curtail the legislator’s salaries in revenge. Of course, the bill will be resubmitted in the next or special session. It will be up to the US Senate to pass nationwide voting rights. Want free beer, then get vaccinated. It’s Anheuser-Busch beer, so it is no big deal, and only if 70% of the US gets vaccinated by 4 July. DDT is back on the stolen election circuit again, now claiming that he will be reappointed president again this coming August. The man is truly nuts or a person who should be convicted of treason. I like the latter. Good news today, the DDT blog page has been shut down for good because of a lack of readership. Hey, I have almost 10,000 reads here and I am happy. Tell your friends about this blog. All the news worth complaining about all in one place. Five minutes and you can itch your bitch. DDT blasts Biden (how unexpected) for rescinding DDT’s remain in Mexico policy. Now he has to follow with reform of the immigration review process to speed it up and make it fair. Yes, Fauci did say that masks are not effective at PREVENTING COVID in the air you are breathing, but masks are effective at preventing the spread of COVID into the air. Somehow yesterday, Iran’s largest warship caught on fire and sank. Iran has said nothing about the cause. Companies are raising wages to attract workers, especially in industries that are not especially attractive places to work. The bad side of this is when labor cost gets too high, the incentive to automate increases, and the number of available jobs goes down. When all is said and done, the Republican party must be rescued from DDT. The best way is to lock him up.

1 June 2021: MASA plus 132 days. We are back to normal with more shootings (this time in LA County Fire Department with 2 shot and 1 killed), but also with a president that acts as a responsible leader. He was in Tulsa today and gave an emotional speech about the massacre and about racism in America. But, even more, about a plan to address racial inequity. One can disagree about detail, but not on the thoughtfulness of the man and the man as president. Nothing he does in his capacity as president is about himself. On the environment today he blocked unnecessary exploitation of the Arctic. It looks like the Republicans in Texas are fuming especially the governor over the Democrats walking out and stopping the anti-voting legislation. Biden is getting irritated with 2 democratic senators who seem to vote more often with Republicans. Another cyber-attack, this time on a meatpacking plant that supplies most of the meat in the US. The US government needs to step in and make such attacks painful for Russia. Israel’s battle with Netanyahu is heating up as good old N is claiming that the coalition forming against him is illegal and a fraud. Sounds like someone in the US. Michael Flynn pulled a good one yesterday by encouraging a coup in the US like Myanmar. That jackass belongs in jail along with his buddy DDT. Lock DDT up.

31 May: MASA plus 131 days. Memorial Day. Today is not a day to worry about politics, but rather a day to remember those who have fallen to protect this amazing nation and the democracy we have been so fortunate to have over so many years. Just the fact that I can freely write this simple blog and say what I think without fear from my government is very precious and valuable. Imagine for a moment, that those who gave their lives had failed and we lived in some ruthless form of government. Life would be completely different even if we were economically well off. The sense of freedom that we all take for granted would be gone. When I say all, I realize that all has not included everyone as it should and must. As a country, we must find our way out of the primal racist crimes that were committed so long ago and echoes to this day.

30 May: MASA +130 days. It is starting to look like Israel’s Netanyahu is political toast because of an agreement between the right-wing nationalist party and the center party to form a government ousting N as prime minister. That’s when N’s legal problems come home to roost. Remind you of someone? At home, Biden has give the Republicans one week to reach a deal on infrastructure without explicitly saying what the steps will be if there is no compromise. Perhaps this will get around McConnell’s total blockade on Biden’s programs. Over 100 bullets were fired in mass shooting in the Miami-Dade shooting and the three perpetrators have not been caught. Nice headline (The Hill) If DDT disappeared there would not be many Republicans in the search party. The hacking from Russia has not stopped or slacked off, instead increased. Biden so far has not responded forcefully, knowing Biden, that will not last. The rhetoric may be publicly mild, but his actions are pretty direct. We’ll see. The witch hunt continues in New York with the witch located in Florida getting very nervous. He knows he is guilty and knows he could get locked up. Oh yeah, that slogan, “Lock him up”.

29 May: MASA plus 129 days. The shootings continue with this one taking place in Miami-Dade County at a concert. This one is minor, with only 2 killed and 20 wounded. Now if everyone had guns at that concert, we could have upped that number in a wild-west shootout. This is a bloody epidemic. Time to get the guns under control. Texas is making it harder and harder to vote. Now you have to show identification that you are a card-carrying Republican and earn more than 50,000 in order to vote. This takes care of the messy problem of lines and all those pesky drop boxes where fraud could be committed by not dropping your vote in the box right side up. I’m exaggerating, of course, but the new restrictions will make it considerably harder for the poor and for minorities to vote. The biggest one is allowing poll watchers to interfere with the counting process. All this in the name of fake increased voter security designed to protect those currently in power. In the long run, it will not work, unless we totally lose our democracy. There is another new more deadly COVID variant on the loose, now in Vietnam, but likely to spread elsewhere. Interesting, now scientists are starting to find features in the molecular structure of the COVID virus that look manmade. Perhaps the lab leak from Wuhan is a real possibility. China, of course, is refusing to let there be an investigation. According to the Guardian, Republicans who embraced DDT’s big lie (stolen election) are running to become election officials. Canada is facing up to its despicable past with indigenous people and the WW2 internment of Italians. It’s about time given their snooty attitude to the US horrible past of similar activities. As always, no matter what else is going on, DDT needs to be indicted to start the process of getting him off the political scene and freeing the Republican party. Lock him up

28 May: MASA plus 128 days. 100 years ago there was a jealousy massacre in Tulsa where a community of blacks had managed to become firmly middle class in every aspect and some quite wealthy. For years the knowledge of this event has been buried and banned from history books, certainly from mine. Now there is the threat from white supremacists to disrupt the event in Tulsa causing the cancellation of the main event. This is a sad event in US history made even sadder by the persistence of hate. The hate is expanding to encompass Asian and Jewish people. Biden’s budget to bring relief from joblessness and poverty is a battleground between Republicans and Democrats over the need to raise taxes on the wealthy and corporations to pay for the program. Biden seems determined to have the bill be bipartisan, so it is likely that only a portion will become law. The Belarus plane hijacking is still simmering with Lukashenko seeking help from Putin who is downplaying the event and disparaging the dispute with the EU. Recent work seems to indicate that if you were infected by COVID-19 and recovered that you will make antibodies for a lifetime. If so, then the goal of reaching the 70% herd immunity is easily reachable with more than 50% of the population already vaccinated and about 1.5 million new vaccinations per day are occurring added to those already immune. However, I personally know of people that have become sick from COVID-19 more than once. What fun, Paul Ryan, the former Speaker of the House, went after DDT’s horrible behavior as President and against his current insane grip on the Republican part. In true form, DDT has lashed out in personal attacks on Ryan calling him the curse on the Republican party. The Republican party is going to splinter over DDT and being lead down a rathole of white supremacy and disregard for the lower and middle classes, not to mention negligence for the environment in favor of big corporations. Of course, there is the little issue over DDT’s disdain for democratic elections and norms along with encouraging an insurrection on 6 January. Just a few little things that will split thinking Republicans from the party. It really is time to indict him as the criminal he appears to be and lock him up.

 

27 May: MASA plus 127 days. Again! Another day another mass shooting. Actually, this is old news I mentioned yesterday. Ah, we are saved. There was another brutal shooting in Springfield VA where a couple was shot to death on their front lawn. For a moment, I thought that today might be a day with peace and tranquility. McConnell has come clean again and come out with the refrain that we (Republicans) have to stop anything that Biden tried to do. If the voters like what Biden wants to do (and they do) then Republicans will lose. Forget about the wellbeing of the country. The republicans are up a little in their infrastructure bill to just shy of 1 trillion (933 billion). A little more compromise and we might be able to help the country. Secretary of State Blinken has warned the Israelis that further eviction of Palestinians could spark new conflict. Little leaks from NY appearing in the newspapers suggest that DDT may get his butt burned. Convict DDT and lock the witch up.

26 May: MASA plus 126 days. In case you have not noticed, May is very easy for me to keep track of Biden’s days in office. I just add 100 to the day in May. It will be another 3 months before I have such convenience again. Another day, another mass shooting. This time in San Jose, CA, with 9 people dead. If we keep electing Republicans to office, nothing will ever be done to stop this epidemic of violent gun deaths. Basically, Republicans are the party of do-nothing for the general good. It used to be that they were fiscally conservative but wanted to help America grow and cope. Not anymore. Just the party of HELL NO. Lukashenko of Belarus is angry at the EU for putting sanctions on him for hijacking the Ryan-Air airplane to arrest a reporter that he did not like. Tough buddy. Go have tea with Putin and sell your stuff to Russia. MT Greene is now a Hitler fan, saying that she would not take down a statue of Hitler or Satan himself because of their historical significance. What a nut case. And then calling Kevin McCarthy a …. (I cannot repeat the words here) for his condemnation of her equating vaccination proof with Jews being forced to wear a yellow star in the Holocaust. What a fine person she is (NOT). The NY prosecutor has been looking into the DDT family operations for fraud involving bank loans, taxes, and insurance on properties especially after forcing the accounting firms to turn over tax records. With the enlisting of a grand jury, things could turn dire for DDT and family in a hurry. It could take many months before charges are leveled, then the “fun” begins. If guilty, please lock him up.

25 May: MASA plus 125 days. Mark this day wherever you mark such stuff. The Manhattan District Attorney convened a grand jury today with the hope of indicting our favorite criminal, DDT. That should tie up the fool in court for a while and hopefully in jail for even longer. Yes, Donald, it is a witch hunt and you have been identified as the witch-in-chief and possible tax and bank fraudster. The Belarus hijacking has blown up with the EU banning Belarus aircraft access to EU airspace and preventing other airlines, other than Russian, access to Belarus. There are other sanctions in the works also to cripple the government-owned industries that support Lutsenko. Now DDT is taking credit for suspecting the Wuhan lab for a leak. Like a broken clock, DDT is right once n a while. Kinzinger is calling for MT Greene to be removed from the GOP conference after her Nazi reference to vaccination certificates. Such idiocy. Looks like Biden and Putin are going to meet at the Geneva summit with a very full agenda. Let’s hope something good comes of it. Let’s get the indictment and put DDT in jail. Lock him up.

24 May: MASA plus 124 days. Florida’s governor Roy DeSantis is trying to limit the ability of internet companies to remove hate speech if that hate speech is delivered by a politician running for office. Nice move DeSantis. It won’t work, but it certainly will play well with the dumber part of the Republican party called “the base”. It is time to vote people like Desantis out of office, not just in Florida, but nationwide. The hijacking of a plane flying over Belarus is causing major consternation in the EU and some rection in the US. The big question is what the west will do to punish Belarus and its vicious dictator. We’ll find out tomorrow or later in the week. Stay out of Texas. The person next to you may be carrying a concealed weapon without a license to carry. Apparently, it is now legal to do so for anyone. Good luck Texas. An argument is still raging as to whether the COVID-19 virus was laboratory released. One certainly hopes not, but an investigation to thoroughly answer that question is sorely needed. It’s bad enough that nature constantly updates viruses to make them able to attack humans as part of the natural evolutionary process, but for people to increase lethality as part of a lab experiment should be forbidden. This goes way beyond what might have happened in a Wuhan lab. Good for Romney. He has said that he will vote for an investigation into the 6 January insurrection attempt. Just as a reminder, the Republican take on not restricting hate speech originated with DDT. Time to lock him up.

23 May: MASA plus 123 days. All is quiet today, Sunday, just the now becoming usual shootings, the forcing down of a civilian aircraft over Belarus, a reordering of the sympathy of Israel (somewhat justified), anti-Jewish hate crimes growing along with anti-Asian hate crimes, the ceasefire holding, more bloviating on catching tax cheats instead of reforming the tax code to correct budget deficits, more claims of election fraud with the clown recount in Maricopa County proceeding apace, Republicans forming a circular firing squad, the criminal fraud case against DDT growing more serious by the day, COVID-19 deaths in the US keep declining while vaccinations are at around 2 million per day, an Indian variant seemingly able to get around the vaccine, China relatively quiet, US Russian summit about to restart Monday, the anniversary of George Floyd’s death, and last, and certainly least, Marjorie Greene shooting her mouth off against Robert Reich on Twitter (a twit in Twitter). DDT has been relatively quiet with his new website basically a bust. As always, the sooner he gets locked up the better.

22 May: MASA plus 122 days: First it is anti-Asian now anti-Jewish. The crap never stops. Unfortunately, it is largely the same group of people. At least there is now a semi-lasting cease-fire and people’s lives are not at risk for now. There is still rioting, but far less dangerous than rockets plus bombing. He’s finally done it and come out of the closet as the racist he is. Rick Santorum gave vent to a rant against native Americans. CNN had the good judgment to drop the idiot. Goodbye Rick, it not been nice to know you. More shootings, this time Minnesota, only 2 dead. Sigh. It is incredible that over half of Republicans say DDT is the real president and the Capital riots were just a show to make him look bad. These are kooky people. The summer hurricane season is starting early this year with Ana forming in the Atlantic. Could be chance or could be the effects of global warming. I suspect the latter. Interesting. A poll of Republicans that form DDT’s base are convinced that indicting him on criminal charges will not affect his chances in 2024. They may be right, but not if he is convicted and in jail on felony-type charges, It will be bye-bye DDT, lock him up.

21 May: MASA plus 121 days: Even with threats from HAMAS and Netanyahu, the cease-fire has held. Now, everyone has to put Humpty Dumpty back together again in time for the next round of attacks. There is no peace possible there as long as there is no agreement to form and respect national boundaries. Both sides share blame. At least HAMAS was explicit this time and thanked Iran for the missiles. More shootings. A 6-year old died in a road rage shooting. Biden has made a reduced offer of 1.7 trillion down from over 2.2 trillion but got no love from Republicans. Perhaps what is needed is to pass some form of the bill and not give any to states whose senators voted against the bill. That is probably not legal, but it sounds nice. Georgia is headed towards another recount of a recount of a recount with Judge allowing the unsealing of absentee ballots to examine them again for fraud. We need to examine Republicans for fraud perpetrated on taxpayers. The partially sentient Ted Cruz attacked the army for a Russian video showing in part a more just US army that includes women. The backlash was immediate, especially from woman veterans. A quote from the Hill, “Ted Cruz attacks a US Army soldier for telling her story, says he prefers Russians,” wrote VoteVets, a liberal political group that advocates for veterans running for office. “Because Ted Cruz is a sedition-loving traitor.” Because of the Arizona uncontrolled voting recount, Maricopa County will need new certified untampered voting machines. The company doing the sloppy recount should foot the bill. DDT was quiet today, but still fuming about the criminal investigation. His CFO is about to flip on DDT and quiet him down for a long time. Lock DDT up.

20 May: MASA plus 120 days. Biden has gone and done it, pushed hard enough for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas, which goes into effect on Friday morning Israeli time. The Republicans are now criticizing Biden for success. Sad state of US affairs. Even bigger is the Supreme Court’s willingness to review the Mississippi anti-abortion law. If they approve it, the Republicans should lose a lot of votes. To date, the Republicans have been able to fly in the face of popular opinion, while stoking their base, but not having to pay a political penalty because the courts have always struck it down. This may be different. Biden and the US are floating a proposal for a 15% minimum corporate tax, which is less than for domestic companies. This will cut out the disgusting situation of highly profitable corporations paying zero in the US. Biden signed the bill against hate crimes against Asians. It was sorely needed. Good old DDT cannot keep his mouth shut. He is now after “wayward” Republicans, the 35 that voted for a January 6th commission. It’s time to form a new conservative party to replace the anti-conservative Republicans, perhaps called the Conservative Party. Michael Cohen claims that DDT will throw hi own family under the bus as his organization is facing criminal prosecution. DDT CFO Allen Weisselberg is now under criminal tax investigation of the New York Attorney-General. And so the unraveling starts. US secretary of state Blinken and Russia’s foreign minister are carefully circling each other in a face-to-face meeting. One of the big issues is the militarization of the Arctic that the US wants to keep open for international use and Russia wants to control. Then there is the little stuff like Ukraine and computer hacking. The Fed is considering a US Central Bank digital currency to compete with crypto-currencies, or perhaps the lead in to regulating crypto-currencies. Going back to Michael Cohen (From the Daily Mail), he said, “I really believe that Donald Trump cares for only himself, and he realizes that his goose is cooked,” so when he will be asked about the Trump Organization's finances he will blame everyone else. “It’s never Donald,” Cohen, the former vice president of the Trump Organization, said. “See, this is the problem. It’s never, ever Donald Trump. It’s always somebody else.” The only solution is to really cook that goose and lock DDT up.

19 May: MASA plus 119 days. I cannot believe it but 35 House republicans went against DDT and backed the study of the 6 January insurrection attempt. This basically means that the investigation could go forward on a bi-partisan basis even though the House leadership is against it. Too bad McCarthy, you lose, at least in the House. The Senate is another matter with McConnell now opposed. Will Biden’s pressure n Netanyahu work and bring an end to the conflict? It is not known. I suspect it depends on n how much pressure Biden is willing to use. The DDT probe in New York has turned into a criminal investigation of DDT for fraud and other tax irregularities. The NY Attorney General has joined with the Manhattan District Attorney to move the case along. It should not be long before indictments are issued. It could not happen to a nicer guy. DDT is claiming it is political to keep him from running again in 2024. I doubt that it is political but if it keeps him from running, then perfect. India is having runaway COVID-19 infections and deaths as the US is having ever decreasing numbers. I sure hope the CDC is right on relaxing mask rules. Everyone in my area is still wearing masks. There is a meeting coming up between our Secretary of State Blinken and Russia’s lead diplomat, Foreign Minister Lavrov over a set of contentious issues. These include the treatment of opposition leader Navalny, Russian hackers, the fighting in Ukraine. The two countries need to work together on key issues like climate change, the middle east problems, Iran, and North Korea. Colonial Pipeline paid 4.4 million dollars in ransom to get the pipeline operating again. Thanks to falling demand during the pandemic chip production was turned off and now is in short supply to the point where it is affecting lots of commodities including Apple products, automobiles, washing machines, and more mundane products with higher prices if available at all. As mentioned earlier, the criminal probe of DDT is fast approaching indictments. Perhaps the US will get lucky and will lock him up.

 

18 May: MASA plus 118 days. The fighting continues with Netanyahu stubbornly defiant against all requests to back off. It is hard to generate sympathy for Israel when the response is so one-sided even though the rocket attacks came first. Or, if one looks closer, Israel’s settlers kicking Arabs out of their long-held homes in Jerusalem and the Israeli police limiting prayers at the main mosque on an important holiday were the real start. How this will end is anyone’s guess, but it will not be a good thing for either side. A Hate Crimes bill to fight Asian American discrimination clears the final House vote and heads to Biden's desk where he will certainly sign it. One hopes it helps stop the irrational violence against Asians kicked off by DDT. It looks like the hackers that caused the Colonial pipeline shutdown collected about 90 million over the past few months of which 5 million was from Colonial. Darkside’s servers were seized and 5 million in bitcoin recovered. As usual, Republicans do not want an investigation of the 6 January insurrection since they claim it was an ordinary tourist crowd and any violence was caused by left-wing imposters. The Republicans are imploding in insanity. Along the insanity line, the Texas governor is threatening to fine cities and localities if they impose mask rules. And of course, the Supreme court is going to take up the Mississippi case against abortion after 15 weeks, which is a direct challenge to Roe vs Wade as pushed by our former dear leader, DDT. The sooner DDT gets locked up the better.

17 May: MASA plus 117 days. The Israel-HAMAS crisis continues with no immediate end in sight. Eacj side seems to have a motivation to continue the war, with Hamas looking for international pressure to gain advantage and Israel looking to destroy a list of targets and to further Netanyahu’s immunity from prosecution for corruption. A sad situation for all. I suspect it would be politically impossible for Israel to declare a unilateral cease-fire and for a short period let Hamas continue to fire rockets at Israel. A week of no response by Israel would put Hamas in an awkward international position. And, who knows, the desire to continue to fire rockets could vanish. The rocket fire at Israel cities is indiscriminate, hitting whatever happens to be in their path. Most are intercepted but about 10% get through defenses and cause havoc. In Arizona, the phony recount continues with even Republicans in the Arizona state government denouncing the effort, “Grift disguised as an audit”. The five-member board, which is composed of four Republicans, said the audit that has been cheered on by former President Donald Trump is a “spectacle that is harming all of us.” According to the Daily Beast, “Republican County Recorder Stephen Richer, called Trump “unhinged” for falsely claiming that the county’s election database had been deleted.” The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case on abortion that directly challenges the long-established right through Roe vs Wade. For women, this could be a disaster and a call in 2022 to get out the vote and get rid of Republicans. There is an interesting story about the Colonial pipeline shutdown in Jalopnick, stating that the pipeline was fine but the cyber attack hit the billing system and the executives shut the pipeline down in fear that the company would not get properly paid. If so, there should be severe penalties for the economic and personal havoc it caused. “Yes, the fuel-carrying pipeline was shut down last week in order to prevent a company that is entrusted with what should be a public utility from enduring an accounting headache. Finally, Biden has authorized the export of millions of vaccine doses that are now becoming surplus in the US, especially the Astra-Zeneca doses that are not being used in the US. In the background, DDT is still attempting to undermine the democratic system in favor of perpetuating one-party rule with him as the head. Time to lock him up as soon as New York is ready with criminal proceedings.

16 May: MASA plus 116 days. The CDC has stepped into a pile of……(let’s just say incompetence). Even a casual look at the daily numbers published n the newspaper will inform you that the CDC made a mistake. I am not sure where the mistake occurred, but somewhere in the management chain an obvious statistical analysis error was made. Yes the number of cases is falling, about 32,000 yesterday, but there is a two to three-week latency (the number of days that a person can carry the virus without needing hospitalization), so multiply that number by about 20, and you have about 640,000 people that possibly might infect a healthy person. Yes, it’s only 0.2 percent of our total population, but that is more than enough to trigger a new wave of infections. Let me know when it is 0.001%, and then I might feel comfortable with a no mask policy. Aside from the aggregate population, the percentages are much higher in poor neighborhoods and those with lots of immigrants, or the very religious. Hopefully, the Biden administration will react to this situation and try to correct it as soon as possible. If this were the DDT administration, I could understand the screw-up. Dr. Rochelle Walensky should be disciplined or fired for incompetence in management and policy as well as not thinking through the reports she was fed. In testimony, Walensky was defiant saying that science says that if you are vaccinated (about 36%) you are safe (probably true) and that everyone else should behave honorably and wear masks. Where have you been living W, under a rock? Honorable? Give me a break. On a different topic, there are calls now for the middle east violence to stop between Israel and Hamas and with Arab-Israeli citizens. The blame is everywhere, but most strongly on those attempting to evict Arab citizens from their homes and on the politicians trying to distract from dysfunction and corruption. Liz Cheney has come out and said that she regrets her vote for DDT for president in 2020 knowing what she knows now. Quoting CBS News, “Eighty percent of Republicans who'd heard about the vote agree with Cheney's removal — they feel she was off-message, unsupportive of Mr. Trump, and that she's wrong about the 2020 presidential election. To a third of them, and most particularly for those who place the highest importance on loyalty, Cheney's removal also shows "disloyalty will be punished." One hopes that the punishment will be the disintegration of the Hypocrite Party (nee Republicans) and the demise of DDT from public view. The best way would be to lock DDT up.

15 May: MASA plus 115 days. There is no end in sight for the HAMAS-Israel battle, with Israel bombing two buildings that were used by the media as well as by HAMAS. Biden tried to dampen down the fighting but was rejected by Netanyahu. No good will come of this for either side until Netanyahu is gone. People are already going crazy with the confusion over the new mask rules. Some establishments are permitting no masks and no social distancing and others are keeping restrictions in place. The really crazy thing is the honor system about vaccination, especially since those who are purposely unvaccinated have no honor (except those with a legitimate medical condition). Liz Cheney is now seen as the first victim of many as DDT attempts a purge of the Republican Party of all those that do not want to kiss his butt, It’s time for real responsible Republicans to split off and form their own party, the Conservative Party and allow the clowns to wither away in a dying Republican party. It will not be the first time in our history that a party died. DDT is still fighting the last election, now blaming "suppression polling", while attacking Pence and McConnell as pathetic. It never stops. China has landed a rover on Mars, which is actually good for science and a major advance in their space ambitions. The US needs to keep moving. It’s time for DDT to get indicted. He has too much free time on his hands to mess with democracy and the destruction of the Republican party. Lock him up,

14 May: MASA (not really) plus 114 days. The CDC is bonkers as are the retail establishments. Allowing people in without masks on the ”honor” system that they have been vaccinated is insane. For those of us that have been vaccinated, sure, but for those that have refused, vaccination honor has no meaning. If this were the DDT administration, I could understand ignoring science with an idiot in charge. But, under Biden, what is going on? Vaccination percentages are still low and infection rates too high. Now comes the question of what do we do? In Israel and the West Bank, more violence is occurring. This mess will never end. Next week will be a major test for Biden’s infrastructure goals with a meeting at the White House. Apparently, Marjorie Taylor Greene filed homestead exemptions on two homes violating Georgia state law. Now there is a legal investigation on her taking a double tax exemption. An investigative reporter discovered this and published the results leading to Greene’s office issuing a rejoinder, “go away and mind your own business”. What a keen legal mind taking care of business like that. There is a water crisis on the California-Oregon border as federal regulators shut off irrigation water and would not supply water downstream for dying salmon. Climate change anyone? The India variant of COVID is more transmissible and can evade the vaccine. If this spreads it could mean a real problem. More ransomware attacks are occurring. This one on hospitals in Ireland. DDT is trying to get minor social media sites to allow him to get back into the public view. The rumor is that DDT is going to charge the site money for his appearance on their site. Crooked DDT needs to be locked up.

13 May: MASA plus 113 days: The Israeli mess continues with each of the three sides having instigated the worst of this for their own personal political gain – at least for the Palestinian authority Abbs having postponed elections because of his fear of a Hamas takeover, Netanyahu to save his legal butt, and Hamas collective leadership to save their butts. Unfortunately, everyone else suffers. Here we go, mask orders are lifted for the vaccinated and anyone that wants to pretend they have been vaccinated. Perhaps this will be natural selection against liars. The newly demoted Liz C is in a crusade to prevent DDT from ever becoming president again. Policy-wise, she’s the enemy. In this case, she’s a friend. The enemy of my enemy is my friend (for now). Caught red-handed with his zipper open, Representative Matt Gaetz will plead guilty in the court case based on the sex-trafficking probe. Goodbye Matt. Watch your back. The case against DDT in Manhattan is alive and well with prosecutors going after Allen Weisselberg for tax evasion after DDT paid $500,000 in tuition for his children in an apparent effort to get him to testify in the main event against DDT. Mean but necessary. From the Hill, “Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) took a swipe at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Thursday, likening her to the “kinds of people that I threw out of bars” after the Georgia Republican aggressively confronted her outside the House chamber the day before. I hope the case against DDT goes to court this year in 2021, well before the mid-term elections. Time to lock him up.

12 May: MASA plus 112 days. Let’s see, The stock market is plunging (2% today) on fears of inflation. Israel is at war with Gaza (Hamas), and Democrats are taking the outlandish idea of calling republicans the party of DDT. It’s not fair. After all, there is Liz Cheney (a staunch conservative) who is calling the party out for sheer stupidity. She was voted out of the leadership position she held, which frees her to really go after DDT from the inside. Today, we have had gasoline shortages up and down the east coast. No problem for those of us with electric cars. Although the next hack could be the electric grid. Perhaps this will be a wake-up call for a more secure internet. A new benchmark has been created defining those people Americans think are rich. Turns out that is a paltry 2 million in net assets. It’s certainly enough to buy lunch. OMG! 120 retired generals and admirals have signed a letter questioning the validity of Biden’s election and questioning Biden’s mental stability. “'Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the 'will of the people' our Constitutional Republic is lost,” the letter from retired officers says. Of course, there are others that have exactly the opposite opinion. Republicans are gearing up for a fight to protect the rich from taxes that might make them pay amounts (in percent) similar to those that work for them. DDT spent the taxpayer’s dollar like a drunkard and cut taxes at the same time. Time for jail DDT. Lock him up.

11 May: MASA plus 111 days: The biggest news at the moment is the looming war in the middle east with the Israeli conflict with Hamas in Gaza. Already the civilian death toll has risen to the point where it will be hard to stop the conflict. It’s basically a repeat of the previous conflict with no better end in sight. Liz Cheney is defiant, and justifiably so. Her fellow party members are so in thrall of DDT that they are willing to embrace lies just to avoid confronting DDT. I have to admire her persistence with the truth in her attacks on DDT laying out the whole series of dysfunctional behavior of the previous administration. The vote to possibly oust her is tomorrow. A judge has dismissed the bankruptcy case against the NRA in New York opening them up to considerable liability and scrutiny of their internal workings. On COVID, the development in viral variants in India as case numbers explode has scientists extremely concerned, especially one variant that seems to be able to get around the current vaccines. The stock market is tanking on fears of inflation largely caused by the shortage of supplies for manufacturing that in turn was caused by the drop in demand during the COVID pandemic. Now demand is picking up again and supplies of critical components are way behind the demand for products. The latest is the gasoline shortage in the US caused by hackers on the colonial pipeline. The world is going crazy. It turns out that the Colorado Springs shooter at a birthday party killed people because he did not get an invitation. DDT is still fulminating n the background plotting to overthrow a democratically elected government that does not include him. Time to lock him up.

10 May: MASA plus 110 days. Time marches on and so does Republican insanity. McCarthy is going to hold a vote to oust Cheney for not being a bootlicker and telling the truth. It is the final demise of the Republican Party. I just hope that a mass of voters also see it that way and throw the miscreants out. The situation in Israel is heating up with Hamas firing rockets on Jerusalem and Israel responding strongly injuring a lot of Hamas people and some civilians. A US ship fired warning shots on Iranian speed boats harassing the US group of ships. No one injured. As long as a mistake is not made it will be tense but not dangerous. One mistake and all hell could break loose. ON the good side, 47% of Republicans now approve of Biden’s handling of the Pandemic. Now, we can just hope if shows up in 2022 and 2024.I guarantee it is not just you. At least one Republican is embarrassed by the Arizona vote recount fiasco. Unfortunately, it is not the one Republican who has no shame. Lock the shameless DDT up.

9 May: MASA plus 109 days. Once again more shootings. This time Colorado Springs has a mass shooter who killed 7 at a birthday party. How long before people do something about this epidemic. The Chinese rocket really did hit the Indian Ocean as reports from the fish have confirmed. The bootlicking Stefanik has been officially endorsed by the politically suicidal McCarthy endorsement of the “Big Lie” from “Dear Leader”. What happened to the Republican party that used to be a party willing to govern, not destroy? Afghanistan is blowing up in front of our eyes with the Taliban killing people right and left and the central government unwilling and perhaps unable to stop them. Andrew Yang, running for mayor of NYC, has deplored the defunding of police after the shooting in Times Square with the suspect still at large. The DOJ apparently scared the Arizona Senate into backing off the absurd plan to interview voters about the nature of their vote. It is against federal law to intimidate voters. Scotland is nearing an attempt to leave the UK via an independence referendum after the recent election results. The gasoline pipeline shutdown over ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline is causing prices to rise. This is but one of a string of attacks on US cyber-structure upon which we all depend. It appears that this is Russia again, or at least a Russian-supported criminal gang. Time to strike back in some way that is meaningful to the Russians. At least we do not have the butt kissing DDT in charge anymore, so perhaps something will get done. That man, DDT, needs to be locked up

8 May: MASA plus 108 days. The Chinese were lucky. Their rocket came down in the Indian Ocean startling a few fish but little else. As always nowadays, there is another shooting, this one in Times Square New York City where two women and a child (tourists) were shot and injured unintentionally as collateral damage in a dispute that broke out between 4 men nearby. Israel is undergoing violent unrest over competing religious claims to the Al-Aqsa mosque and the identical site also known as the Temple Mount, both holy sites. The problem is from diehard fanatics on both sides that purposely stir up trouble. Obama’s White House dog “Bo” died today with considerable family grief. The joke cryptocurrency Dogecoin dropped 30% during Musk’s appearance on Saturday Night Live when he called it a hustle and howled “To The Moon” but mostly recovered by the end of the show. Important news, but probably futile, is that a Senate committee is holding "markup" hearings on the voting rights bill that will be strenuously opposed by Republicans and at least one Democrat from West Virginia. It’s too bad that this is the case when Republicans in those states that they control are doing their best to limit voting to prevent minorities and poor people from voting. Three cases in point are Georgia, Florida, and Texas where severely restrictive anti-voting bills are already law. Of course,  it could backfire on Republicans as many of their voters use mail-in voting and dropbox voting.  COVID rates in the US keep dropping, now to work on the rest of the world. DDT is back at it again interfering in politics trying to get his bootlickers elected prior to a promised run again in 2024 for the presidency. I can only hope that long before 2024 he is indicted for crimes, convicted in a court of law, and locked up.

7 May: MASA plus 107 days: We had a somewhat weak jobs increase report that the Republicans are blaming the Biden stimulus package for reducing the incentive to work. It’s utter nonsense in general, even if there are a small number of people in very low-paying jobs that are taking advantage. This is part of the Republican strategy to try to blame Biden for everything, good or bad. Their problem is most of what Biden is doing is quite popular. Biden on the other hand is pointing out that the weak jobs report is exactly what makes the massive jobs and families bill necessary. Biden has lifted the secrecy of the visitor’s log cloaked by DDT. This should prove interesting in figuring out who was visiting and talking when. Lindsey Graham has spoken, “we, the Republican Party, cannot move forward without DDT’s boots to lick”. “We need the money, only he can raise to make the party grow.” The UK is facing a crisis with Scotland looking more and more like they want to withdraw from the UK. Boris has done it again and pulled a DDT. Speaking of which, when are they going to lock DDT up?

6 May: MASA plus 106 days. Ron de Santis just carried a mouse in his teeth to Mar a Lago for DDT to chew on by signing a voter restriction bill in Florida. The arrogance of the man astounds me but not quite as much as the idiocy of Florida voters that return him to office. It is clear, the Republican party wants to make the US look like Venezuela with one corrupt party and leader in charge. Unfortunately, it is not just in Florida, but all over the nation in states where Republicans are in charge. Texas and other states are racing to push through similar legislation. It could backfire as well and make it difficult for Republican voters. It is time for the voters to wake up and throw them out before the democratic form of government gets destroyed. Dictatorship is efficient, efficient at throwing anyone under the bus that disagrees with the regime. This can be seen in the house where Republican leadership is trying to remove Liz Cheney from her position for being willing to tell the truth and follow her convictions. I disagree with Cheney on almost all her policy positions, but it is possible to respect her and to negotiate with her in good faith. Not so with almost the rest of the party. Now McConnell is back to braying that his number one job is to thwart the Biden administration instead of negotiating legislation satisfactory to all sides. It really is time to get rid of the clown car in Congress and the clowns therein. People do not realize that once you have a dictatorship based on cult of personality it is really hard to reverse it and get back to democracy. You can see this in the present Republican party that cannot thow off the yoke of DDT. Keep your head down this weekend as a large Chinese rocket is likely to fall to Earth in an uncontrolled manner and could land anywhere. It will probably land in the ocean since the ocean is 3/4 of the area of the Earth. If not, then there could be a real mess unless it lands on Beijing. Anti-Asian American hate crimes are continuing to rise thanks to latent racism and the encouragement by DDT while he was president. This is a form of white supremacist insanity against a group of people that are some of the best supporters of our democracy and way of life. It’s hard to believe that a 6th-grade girl got hold of a gun and shot 3 of her fellow students in an Idaho middle school. And then there is Arizona and the phony vote recount in Maricopa County by a private company totally unqualified for the task. The purpose is to perpetuate DDT’s falsehood that Biden did not win the election. New York needs to speed up the process and indict DDT for criminal activity before more damage is done. Time to lock DDT up.

5 May: MASA plus 105 days. Sanity has prevailed again, for the moment. DDT has been officially silenced (Banned) from Facebook for his insurrectionist calls for violence on 6 January. The ban has been deemed correct by the independent commission formed for this purpose, but not banned forever. DDT immediately struck out at the injustice of it all for banning his lying and provocations when clearly there is a large audience that eats it up. Not being on Facebook directly hinders is fundraising efforts. The US appears to be backing waiving intellectual property rights on vaccines to help disadvantaged countries get more vaccines for COVID. The purpose is good, but there has to be a better way to both encourage the drug companies and to make vaccine amounts in affordable billions of doses. A federal judge has overturned the national eviction ban, but the ruling is on appeal. It was set to expire in two months anyway. The appeal will take longer than 2 months. The good news is DDT will continue to be relatively quiet, but I still want to have him locked up for real quiet.

4 May: MASA plus 104 days. Time flies. It seems just yesterday that the evil clown left office in the face if an insurrection attempt. Why the Republican party is in thrall to him is beyond me. If they had any backbone and collectively rejected the buffoon, DDT would be a bad historical note. While it certainly is his right, Derek Chauvin has requested a new trial based on jury misconduct. It seems one of the jurors attended an “I have a Dream” memorial. Another of the jurors ate Cheerios for breakfast. It looks like Cheney is a throwback to an honest Republican with principles. Having those is an obvious reason to try to throw her out. However, Kinzinger is backing her criticism of the Republican party. There’s two, the next thing you know there will be three. Fear not, the self-serving Senator McCarthy will jump to the rescue of the limp-minded party. Oh No. DDT has launched a new communication platform that will permit readers to post likes and dislikes on Facebook. Ok, I already dislike it. The site has lyes on it from the very start about the election. So much for peace and quiet. Biden has a new goal of getting 70% of the US vaccinated by 4 July. Go for it. A judge has ordered the Justice Department to release memos to Barr from the White House on obstruction of justice. This could get interesting. And in the background, there is music playing from the NRA’s attempt to declare bankruptcy to avoid a lawsuit alleging gross misconduct. With all this going on and the start of a DDT website, we need to have a fair trial on his misdeeds and lock DDT up.

3 May: MASA plus 103 days and counting. The news is all atwitter with the possible extent of Biden’s tas increases to pay for his rebuilding of America. The increases will only affect the rich or near rich (anyone making over 400,000 per year) or selling real estate making more than $500,000 profit. This will affect a few people who are not so rich, but legislation can be crafted so that unintended victims do not occur. The really wealthy and profitable corporations need to pay a fair share towards a better country for everyone. There are more shootings by people with guns, of course, this time in Wisconsin. Ron Desantis. Florida’s heatstroke victim of a governor has suspended all COVID protections and restrictions. As he says, “why me worry”? Rumor has it that DDT is planning to run with DeSantis as his vice president. Good choice DDT. If you win, we’ll have two idiots in the White House, one smarter than the other (not you DDT). Time to lock him up, DDT that is. OK OK, DeSantis too.

2 May: MASA plus 102 days: All is quiet on the Biden front, just what a good presidency should sound like. Unless that is, there is something going on that we should know about immediately. What a relief. The list of other things going on includes the capsizing of a human smuggler boat off the coast near San Diego, Senator Collins defends Romney at the GOP clown convention from attacks by fellow Republicans, students killed on their way to a prom (car crash), shots fired in Salt Lake City and perpetrator arrested, GOP is fighting about culture wars between acting like a governing party of following the idiot DDT, Biden may be about to lift sanctions on Iran as the possibility of a nuclear deal appears possible, and Rudi and the raid on Rudi’s apartment by the Justice Department is in the news striking fear in the hearts of those in DDT’s inner circle as Rudi is likely to throw them all under the bus to save his own skin. Typical quiet Sunday night. Time to lock them all up especially DDT.

1 May 2012: MASA plus 101 days. Yes, It’s Mayday but nothing has changed. The active shooters continue (Oneida Nation casino) and those that could do something (Republicans) do nothing. The 2nd amendment has been perverted far beyond its original intent and even the mildest form of that might lead to the prevention of mass killings is rejected outright. The only way to beat this situation is to get Republicans out of office at the local and national levels. The Republican party no longer cares to govern but just to obstruct and, when it can, to make the rich richer. As we watch India’s hell with COVID (400,000 new cases in a day), we here in the US are preparing to follow with the opening up of mass events like the Kentucky Derby. I hope we do not have to learn the horrible lesson all over again. Right now with Spring here and vaccinations increasing we are showing a solid decline in cases and deaths. Wearing masks and keeping some distance has worked wonders both for COVID and for the nearly zero flu cases. Mitt Romney survived a “boo-in” as the GOP convention delegated booed him but defeated a motion to censure him. North Korea is foaming at the mouth because of Biden’s speech, warning of dire consequences because Biden considers N. Korea a threat to the US and others. It is a threat. All it would take is a mistake and all hell would break loose. Clearly, DDT’s all or nothing policy did not work in spite of the love letters. Perhaps he should have put a return love message in a bottle and let the ocean deliver it. With DeJoy in charge, it might be faster. Now it’s back to normal with both our adversaries and our friends. Time to finish with that colossal failure, DDT. Lock him up

 

30 April: MASA plus 100 days. It's 100 days and Biden is really cooking with programs that can make a real long-term difference in the US. There is lots of Republican resistance, but if there are enough people that want these programs, show up and vote the Republican obstructionists out. But in the background, it’s crackpot time again. Rudi G and Tucker C were at it again in an interview with each other spinning conspiracy theories and feeling sorry for each other. I just read about it, since I never listen to the kookster (TC). The stock market is about to undergo a big change based on next week’s earnings reports. Which way will it go? The big news is the pervasive chip shortage driving up the price of cars, phones, tablets, and computers plus closing factories that produce all these consumer goods. It’s temporary but disturbing. Senator Manchin (W. Va) has come out against DC statehood and election reform. This is not surprising considering the state he does represent. The Democrats need a majority of more than one to get things done. Biden has just canceled the border wall that was funded with military money. A useless project if there ever was one. Even the wall itself was a joke with smugglers cutting right through it or going over it. Then again it was designed by that master, I know it all, architect, DDT. Biden has canceled travel by citizens of India to the US, but it is probably too late to have much effect. With all the variants popping up it looks like everyone will have to have booster shots regularly. Michigan just confirmed a highly infectious India variant. Will it be in your neighborhood soon? There is some medication under testing that shows promise against COVID. I just read that the EU is plunging into a “double-dip” recession, which easily could affect the economy here. The nightly question is will DDT run for President or rest quietly in jail. I vote for jail. Lock him up.

29 April: MASA plus 99 days. After thinking over the Biden speech and proposals, as well as some of the more detailed analysis, I think Biden did a superb job in proposing to rebuild the country and make it a better place to live for everyone. Just the phrase that medical care is a right, not a privilege would go far to remake the country. Childcare and extended education support are excellent goals. The current formula of free community college is a bit too generous in my estimation except for low-wage families. The better-off families could have a small amount of money to contribute. That is a small quibble. It was a pleasure to listen to Biden for over an hour without chest-pounding and lies. Kamala Harris agreed with Tim Scott that America is not a racist country but that there is a lot of work to do on that score. The Senate (89-2) approved a water bill to remove lead pipes and improve the quality of drinking water. I guess that could be called bipartisan. Biden’s tax proposals are going to be a tough sell, especially to republicans who feed off giving breaks to the rich. If we can get the pigs away from the trough for just a little while, we may be able to make progress. And then we have good old Rudi, who may flip on DDT in a heartbeat according to Michael Cohen. That would be fun (for us). Interesting, there apparently have been so-called Havana attacks near the White House (directed energy beams). Let’s hope they catch the culprits this time. Time to get DDT locked up or at least in court under oath. Lie and get locked up.

28 April: MASA plus 98 days. Biden just gave his speech to congress and swung for the fences. He gave a very long list of things that need to be done from voting rights to gun control, infrastructure to medical care, police reform to increased education. A broad swath powerfully delivered. The big message was to get things done. Quit stalling. He basically drew a contrast between democracy and autocracy and insisted that democracy must prove that we can succeed. I’m going to leave it at that for today. His speech stands by itself.

27 April: MASA plus 97 days. Not far from the mythological 100 days by which all presidents are judged. Pretty silly, but that’s become the tradition. If you cannot achieve world peace and remove hunger in 100 days, you must be a failure, right? Tomorrow Biden addresses congress on his first almost 100 days and will enumerate his accomplishments and plans. The CDC is relaxing the mask requirements for the vaccinated outdoors. The problem is how can you tell the unwashed from those anointed by the vaccine? Honor system. It’s starting already, Governor Lee in Tennessee has removed all mask requirements with more states to follow. The respite is likely to be brief once the infection rate shoots through the roof again. Perfect! Biden will present the way of financing his infrastructure package and the really rich are afraid he will close their favorite tax loopholes. The really rich, those who make millions are the ones with tax rates so low it is embarrassing, especially those who earn money from investments, not salary. It’s time they paid their fair share. One of the big ones is the passing on of fortunes upon death with little or no tax liability. A reporter who was forced to write a negative story about Kamala Harris at the NY Post has abruptly resigned saying that she had enough and this was a breaking point. I do not read the NY Post because it has been full of misinformation for a long time. COVID rates are still soaring in India and parts of Africa that is bereft of vaccines. The recent moves by the US to alleviate the problem are still months away from being even an effective beginning. Nuclear talks have resumed with Iran in Vienna albeit with new complications from the leaked recordings for Iran’s foreign minister. Hopefully, this will reverse the stupid pullout from the agreement by DDT. As always, he deserves to be locked up for crimes real or just likely.

26 April: MASA plus 96 days. California is in trouble. Apparently, the Republicans have obtained enough voter signatures to force a recall election for Governor Newsom. Newsome has caused ire with his management of the COVID pandemic. Whoever wins this election will have to face yet another election in 2022. Nothing like chaos to run a state as big as most countries. The census is showing that California will lose a seat in the House or Representatives while Texas will probably gain. Losing a seat is not only politically damaging to California, but also effects that amount of money the state receives from Federal programs. The CDC is about to relax mask-wearing rules for outdoor activities. To me, this is crazy until the infection rates are down and the variant problem has been solved. Every country or state that has relaxed the rules has quickly had a large uptick in infections and hospitalizations. The leaked recording of Iran’s foreign minister offering a look inside the machinations within his government is causing quite a bit of consternation. This leak could sabotage the talks going on in Vienna to restart the nuclear agreement. It will be interesting to find out the source and motive of the leak. Lately, Israel has been trying to stop the agreement and cause problems with Iran’s nuclear facilities. Could it be instigated by Israel? Finally, Biden has agreed to send vaccines raw materials to make vaccines to India, which is undergoing a meltdown with COVID. The US now has a surplus, so the help is appropriate. Ultimately, the whole world is going to need help from the rich countries to stop COVID, a path that will protect everyone. Biden is still popular with a 51% approval rating. Not as good as Clinton at this point in his presidency but much much better than DDT. As always, DDT needs to be put on trial for his misdeeds and be locked up.

25 April: MASA plus 95 days. I wrote a paragraph on the 25th but never posted it. Unfortunately, I have no record of it and cannot remember the day's details of what was important. In some ways, this is a good thing compared to the daily outrages of DDT's presidency. The only really important thing is to get the voting rights restored in states where the Republicans are trying to make it impossible for the majority to elect officials. This is an aftereffect of DDT's false claims of voter fraud. It has to be stopped. It's time for the miscreant DDT to be locked up for real crimes.

24 April: MASA plus 94 days. Ninety days already. Time just slides by with a responsible person in the White House. DDT and his insane tweets seem to be so far in the past. It is very quiet in the news this weekend except for COVID disasters occurring in India, Brazil, Africa, and so on, with enormous numbers of people infected and large numbers dying, numbers far larger than the official count. The problem is in supplying vaccines that are safe and effective to the entire world. The wealthy countries are well on their way to herd immunity, but the rest of the world is far behind. It’s time for the governments in Europe and the US to step up production and make the vaccines available worldwide without regard to making money. Simple ethics and morality demand that we do as much as we can, plus it eventually is for our own good and safety. Biden has come out and recognized the WW1 genocide committed against Armenians by the Ottoman Empire (now Turkey). It’s over 100 years ago that this atrocity occurred. Ted Cruz’s mind is in the gutter with mud flowing in one ear and out the other filling the empty space within. Mud for brains could not resist taking a stupid pot shot at Kamala Harris who was campaigning in New Hampshire supporting a Senate race. The Republican farce of a vote recount in Arizona using a private corporation run by a conspiracy theorist is now underway after a suspended court challenge. No matter the outcome of this clearly fake recount, results will stay the same and Republicans will come out looking more and more like crooked idiots. It looks like climate change has become so severe that it has altered the Earth’s spin axis by changing the weight of ice at the poles. No one is sure what this portends for the future, but it is likely not good. DDT is refreshingly nonexistent today, a fact that needs to be remedied by a full-scale open trial for criminal activity. Lock him up,

23 April: MASA plus 93 days: A 16-year-old Black girl, Ma’Khia Bryant, was shot and killed while attempting to stab family members with a knife. All this pretty well caught on body cameras. The office fired 4 times when once would probably have be enough to stop her. Unlike most of the other police killings, this one seems justified under the rules that police operate under, deadly force when they or others are threatened with deadly weapons. The problem here is that the community is so sensitized by other unjustified use of force that any action by police is suspect and the cause for protest. Who can blame the protestors? Biden is making his first trip overseas to attend the G7 summit, which should be another opportunity to re-establish the reputation of the US. The Russians appear to be pulling some troops back from the Ukraine border. It si real, or just trying to fool Ukraine. Republican states are desperately trying to limit the vote by Democrats who happen to be minorities. If true, the good news is that Navalny is ending his hunger strike. He needs to live to plague Putin. It appears that most car manufacturers will phase out gasoline-powered cars in the next 15 to 20 years. This reverses DDTs plans to keep gasoline cars with less gas mileage. Get rid of DDT, lock him up.

22 April: MASA plus 92 days. Today is Earth day. Biden is proving to be pretty good on most things, steering a line between the most liberal crazies (Bernie) in the Democratic Party and the conservatives like Manchin. The main thing is he getting things done, reversing the really bad stuff that DDT pulled, and trying to rebuild the nation, both economically and generate respect in the rest of the world. The latest is the climate accord with Biden pledging to reduce emissions by 50% in ten years and is off to a good start. The trick will be getting the rest of the world and the congress to go along with some of the proposals ranging from electric cars to renewable energy. Here’s hoping since the price of failure is very high. The Senate passed legislation Thursday targeting anti-Asian hate crimes after incidents largely caused by DDT’s anti-Asian remarks related to COVID. Senate lawmakers approved the legislation in a 94-1 vote with Josh Hawley being the lone dissenter. Another strike against Hawley. The Republicans put out their version of a crippled $568 billion infrastructure bill today, a bill that does not address key problems at all and funds an amount not sufficient for the items addressed (roads and bridges). It completely leaves out any aid for the elderly and disabled people. Perhaps it is just a starting point for discussion. DC statehood was passed by the House and now a Senate fight looms. Interesting. Russia appears to be pulling back somewhat from the Ukraine border after NATO and US fighter jets flew over the area. Let’s hope that this is the start of reduced tensions. Although CBS News reported, “The day after Vladimir Putin warned the West against "provocations" and "interfering" in Russia's business, his country's military began large-scale military drills in Crimea and around Ukraine's mainland.” So much for a pullback. Biden has proposed increasing the capital gains tax for the wealthy as part of his plan to pay for badly needed improvements in the US. NASA generated breathable oxygen on Mars along with the first flight of it mini-helicopter. Way to go. Vaccinations continue, but at a reduced pace as we run out of people who are convinced that the vaccine is to their benefit. The health effects of COVID-19 can stretch on for months and appear to increase the risk of death and chronic medical conditions, even in people who were never sick enough to be hospitalized. This is bad news for the long-term impact on the medical system and for people stricken. Even though DDT is relatively quiet, he still lurks in the background plotting evil stuff. Lock him up

 

21 April, MASA plus 91 days. More police shootings occurred today including the shooting death of a 15-year-old girl. This one may be justified as there appeared to be an ongoing knife attack. Even if justified, the misbehavior of the police is so prevalent that everything is suspicious. Three other police officers await trial in the George Floyd murder as accessories. President Biden is about to open a politically sensitive wound by recognizing that the massive killing of Armenians was genocide. Turkey, which committed this atrocity long ago during WW1, is adamant that it never occurred. The Turks consider it a national affront. Republican lawmakers in 34 states have introduced bills outlawing protests such as the Black Lives Matter protests. Florida’s De Santis signed a bill that requires that cities receive state approval before cutting police budgets and makes it a felony to destroy historical structures, including flags and memorials, during protests. According to “The Hill”, Democrats and civil rights advocacy groups argue that the wave of proposals could threaten Americans’ First Amendment rights to free speech and lawful assembly. This type of anti-protest legislation is dangerous to democracy and needs to be struck down. Putin just issued a harsh warning to the US not to interfere with Russia’s massing troops near Ukraine and blockading the Black Sea. Ukraine is preparing for a war it will certainly lose on its own unless the world stands with it and discourages the Russians from this ego-driven madness of Putin. Russia has also arrested more than 1000 people protesting the treatment of Navalny. Does this ring a bell with the Republican anti-protest legislation? Good news: the US has passed 200 million vaccinations. DDT was quiet again today. Let’s keep him that way. Lock him up.

20 April: MASA plus 90 days. Derek Chauvin was convicted today of the murder of George Floyd. I cannot imagine another outcome given the devastating evidence in the videos taken by a civilian in the small crowd. The cries of George Floyd for his life will echo forever. The conviction is an important but very small step in taming police indifference and sometimes malevolence to black lives.  At the same time, we could be watching the beginning of a world war potentially more devastating than WW2. The ego that is Putin is pretending to be Nazi Germany just before the invasion of Poland in 1939. The world watched the buildup of Hitler’s army on the Polish border and did nothing. Do nothing in the face of a dictator bent on destruction just to build up his internal support is ambitious insanity. In some senses, this is the opposite of Einstein’s insanity aphorism about doing the same thing twice and expecting a different outcome Here it is doing nothing twice in the face of insanity and expecting a different outcome. The difference this time around is that the world possesses nuclear weapons and it is not clear at all that Russia will refrain from using them if threatened. The threat to Ukraine needs to be stopped now before the situation turns hot and dire. Putin is in a stage of megalomania where only he can save Russia from being thwarted in imperialist goals. The real truth behind all of this is the corruption within the Russian government with oligarch rivals to Putin just waiting for a misstep, a misstep that seems to cost them their fortunes. Watching the news tonight I was struck with the absolute paucity of information about the happenings on the world stage. Yes, George Floyds murder trial is important, racial equity is important, as is the death of Walter Mondale at 93, but it all pales if there is even a small mistake about Ukraine. Just a little bit less threatening is the pissing contest between Israel and Iran with Israel feeling an overwhelming threat if Iran acquires a nuclear weapon. They are close, and if they test, the response is likely to be overwhelming. Wake up people, your lives are at stake. On a calmer note, George W Bush came out against the behavior of his Republican Party, calling them “Isolationist, protectionist, and nativist. Although the last is a stretch since almost everyone here is a recent immigrant except for the native tribes and the few that arrived here on the Mayflower and shortly afterward. Certainly, any family arriving in the US during the past 100 years is not native. A good piece of news is that the quantum internet has been demonstrated with more than 2 nodes. In the absence of war, quantum internet and quantum computing will be a revolution of unknown consequences. DDT has announced that he will definitely seek the presidency again in 2024. New York, you have to move faster and lock the miscreant up.

19 April: MASA plus 89 days. Walter Mondale (94) died today. One of the last real moderates was Carter’s vice president. We are all waiting on the Chauvin jury verdict while the governor activates the National Guard, just in case. Interesting. LA is going to be a city that guarantees an income for the poor, which is expected to cost 1 billion. This will certainly be an interesting experiment although I cannot imagine the payment per person will do much to offset the homeless problem. Adults in all states are now eligible for receiving the vaccine. The supply of available vaccines is now more than enough to go around. Among seniors, who have been eligible for some time, still, 1/5 of them remain unvaccinated. The news is not much today. The Taliban is mocking the US withdrawal plans. Russia is massing even more troops on the border of Ukraine. If Putin attacks, will NATO do anything? Who knows? This looks like a very dangerous game of chicken. Somewhere in the background DDT plots to undermine the Republican Party to remake it in his own image. What fun he must be having going from a two-bit wealthy cheat to a revered figure. The only solution is to bring him low and lock him up.

18 April: MASA plus 88 days. Shootings continue. The latest in Austin, Texas with just 3 dead, and in Kenosha Wisconsin with just 3 dead. Just 3 dead, hardly worth noticing anymore. Perhaps tomorrow will bring a larger number in one place to get bigger headlines. How many will it take for Congress to do something significant to curb this plague? These 6 are accompanied by a 7-year old killed at a McDonald's drive-through in Chicago. The White House has issued a warning to Russia about repercussions if Navalny dies in prison at the hands of Putin. The nature of possible repercussions is unknown for now. The situation with Russia keeps getting hotter and more dangerous. An old incident just popped back to life with an explosion in the Czech Republic at an arms factory now being directly blamed on the same two Russian operatives that were involved in the Salisbury England poisonings. The evidence so far looks damning. Russia is saying that it will withdraw from the International Space Station in 2025 potentially causing problems in financing and access for the remaining occupants. They intend to build their own. The J&J vaccine pause may be lifted this coming week even though there are a very small number of blood-clot deaths associated with this vaccine. I hope the scientific reasoning is sound. DDT praised Biden for his Afghan withdrawal plan but also said it should be sooner. Scary when DDT praises Biden. GOP presidential hopefuls move forward as DDT also seeks the nomination. I agree and would nominate DDT for jail. Lock him up.

17 April: MASA plus 87 days. More shootings including the 8-people massacre at the FedEx site. When is it going to stop? Florida has passed a bill requiring inspection of genitals for women in sports to prevent trans-women from competing in cis-women's sports. Sad but true. I wonder how parents of cis-women will feel about their daughters being inspected. How will you know unless you look?  Florida is stupid as we have known for a long time. The Chauvin trial is nearing an end, but police killings and police harassment continue with several indefensible. COVID deaths have now topped 3 million with over 560,000 in the US. The situation in Brazil is dire with a highly infectious variety dominant that may also be able to evade the vaccine-enabled immune system response.  Marjorie Taylor Greenes (Congressperson and QAnon believer) is leading an America First Caucus to protect Anglo Saxon traditions. Greeks and Italians are not welcome anymore along with Asians, Africans, Eastern Europe, Russia, and so on, go Home. Along with Germans? DDT, go back to where you came from. The situation in Ukraine is heating up with Russia moving more missile warships near Ukraine and is trying to prevent other ships from getting near. French President Macron is calling for the international community to draw clear lines with Russia. It looks like the world is paying for DDT's tolerance of Russia's aggression against the US and other countries. Time for the traitor to be in jail. Lock DDT up.

16 April: MASA plus 86 days. More shootings and more words, but little action on an obvious gun violence epidemic. Even the modest proposals by Biden are being resisted by Republicans, even just simply better background checks or some record keeping. It’s disgusting. Biden is about to raise the limit on legal immigration over the amount that DDT reduced it to. The Derek Chauvin trial is reaching the verdict stage over George Floyd’s death. Hold your breath. Looks like catching Matt Gaetz was just a lucky break in another investigation of a man falsely accused of pedophilia when running for a low-level political office. Russia is pulling more of its shenanigans restricting ships in the Black Sea messing up Ukraine's ability to have reliable commercial shipping. The US Embassy warns that conditions could change in a flash. Not good. Once again DDT is quiet for another day. Good for the nation. Better will be for him to be locked up.

15 April: MASA plus 85 days. The news is full of shootings, mostly by police, and some by civilians masking the really frightening threats. Some of these are, Russia threatening Ukraine, Biden putting new sanctions on the Russians for the hacking, China acting provocatively, the Brazilian variants running rampant, domestic terrorism, the pullout from Afghanistan, the threat that this pullout has on nuclear-armed Pakistan, and the threat of the Iranians against Israel. And, those are just the big threats. At least Biden also opened the door to cooperation with both Russia and China. COVID mask mandates are ending all over the place in spite of evidence of a resurgence. Red states blue states heading to bad fates. The toady DDT still has not croaked his crooked song for the past two days. What evil lurks in the mind of this man. Only the Shadow knows (for those of you old enough to know what I am referencing). Where is the AG from NY when we need him to shut down the evil empire with a subpoena to appear before a justice under oath and penalty of perjury? Lie and cross the River Styx to appear no more. Quoth the Raven, nevermore. Perhaps a denizen of the seventh circle where he be locked for eternity (Rikers fits nicely). Yes, lock him up. A decade will do.

14 April: Masa Plus 84 days: From the news headlines you would think that the world was a quiet place, and only the US has turmoil. The police can’t seem to get it right with constant fatal shootings. This latest with the gun for taser “mistake” is inexcusable. NATO is going to match the US troop pullout leaving the US-trained Afghans to go it alone. I feel sorry for the people living there who are likely to be subject to civil war. Between Russia with its threats to Ukraine, Iran with its nuclear enrichment program on full blast (60%), and China menacing the world both economically and militarily, the US and its NATO allies are in a precarious position. If it gets worse, we will all pay dearly, even for the pipsqueak in N Korea. Word is that QAnon is a Russian plant operating in the US as a sleeper agent. Pretty effective. The J&J vaccine is on hold with the possibility of serious effects from blood clots just like the Astro-Zeneca vaccine in Europe using similar adenovirus technology. It looks like Space-X has struck again beating out the ULA Vulcan rocket for the NASA moon rover launch. Price and proven capability won the day. This day was a good one in one respect. DDT was quiet, at least in the news media. Silence is golden. Now we need to silence him permanently with free housing and “food”. Lock him up.

13 April: MASA plus 83 days. I actually believe the officer who just shot and killed Daunte did not mean to do so. However, mistaking a gun for a Taser is not a sufficient excuse for the inexcusable. It is still murder even if not premeditated. And what were they doing that needed such force? From The Hill.com, “President Biden is under fire from lawmakers in both parties over his decision to withdraw U.S. forces by the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that prompted the longest war in American history.” It is an endless war, a religious war against religious extremists with no real compromise possible. The end result will be a mess. Biden is caught between a rock and a hard place unless he gets lucky and there is an agreement that somehow protects ordinary people especially women. McConnell is trying to end the feud with DDT. Good luck with that unless you kiss his ---. DDT cheated again after the election bilking his unsuspecting supporters of millions with pre-checked boxes for multiple contributions. The last one was a whopper. The Times reported that the political arm of the House Republicans had upped the ante re: bilking supporters, with a truly psychotic prechecked box that warned “If you UNCHECK this box, we will have to tell Trump you’re a DEFECTOR.” Nice! It looks like his daughter and Jared are gearing up for a run at the Presidency as well. If this nation elects anyone from that sick tribe, the country deserves the misery. They are involved with DDT’s super Pac that raised money under false pretenses allowing the money to be used for anything including personal expenses. This family has to be stopped politically and legally. As for DDT, lock him up after conviction for crimes already committed.

 

12 April: MASA plus 82 days. Not very sane at all. The police cannot seem to learn the lesson of not shooting people. It’s bad. First shooting people is like murder, and murder is frowned upon at least for most civilians, second, it looks bad in public, and third, there is a small group of people (thousands) that get really upset. These three simple rules should be easy to understand and made part of police training. NASA has released pictures of blue sand dunes on the red planet (Mars). Weird. Hey. McConnell has fired back at DDT, calling him a dumb son of a bitch. Nope! Got it backwards. DDT called McConnell a dumb son of a bitch. Doesn’t really matter. It fits both ways. The basis of the fracas was McConnell’s refusal to overturn the 2020 elections, which prompted the SOB comment from DDT. Keep it up guys and elect Democrats. Even Tubberville, our elected genius, said enough. Michigan is in deep trouble with the democratic governor unable to control the unruly idiotic Republicans over the exploding COVID epidemic. With luck, the vaccines will help bring things back to normal. Biden is showing a willingness to compromise on the size of the spending and taxing plans. Wait and see if he gets any cooperation. The really big news, which might be good or bad, is that Amazon crushed the union drive in Alabama. As always, Lock DDT up before he re-emerges from the mudhole.

11 April: MASA plus 81 days. The world is starting to get dangerous. We have China flexing muscles with hypersonic cruise missiles, Russia massing troops next to Ukraine, and now Israel almost admitting a cyber-attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities. One or more of these little adventures might blow up and go out of control. The Israel adventure could easily involve the US as could either of the other two. A “White Lives Matter” rally was a flop with almost no one showing up. There were more onlookers than attendees. Interesting: John Boehner has written a book about his story in politics in the House. His opinion of DDT, not much, and calling Jordan and Cruz among Congress’s political terrorists. DDT is going after Mike Pence and McConnell in a speech to Republican donors. The US better watch out, we do not want a 2nd round of this political criminal in the White House again. If DDT manages to set the Republicans against one another, then he will be doing an unwitting service to the country. Somehow, he will manage to screw things up for everyone. Myanmar keeps getting worse with the military brutalizing civilians. This will not stop until it is all-out civil war. Jerome Powell on 60 minutes claims that America is quickly going back to work but is worried about the economy reopening too quickly. It looks like the S. African variant of COVID can bypass the vaccines according to an Israeli study. It is pretty quiet this Sunday except for the static caused by DDT poking his head above the polluted Republican swamp. We need to get him charged, convicted, and locked up.

10 April: Masa plus 80 days. Nothing sane about today. A mother in CA stabbed her 3 children to death and was captured…crazy. In Virginia, the police pepper-sprayed a Latino army officer with hands raised during a traffic stop …crazy again. Funny headline in the Guardian, “Zeus of Twitter or mouse of Mar-a-Lago? Republicans court Trump in Florida”. It’s sad that Republicans are so afraid of crossing DDT. Interesting news in reaction to all the police abuse, Yahoo News, “Maryland becomes first state to repeal police Bill of Rights after lawmakers override Hogan veto”. Hopefully, this will make the police more accountable, at least in Maryland. Bad news: A huge glacier in Antarctica is becoming very unstable. If it collapses, the ocean will rise considerably. Loosely it is called the “Doomsday Glacier”. And, severe storms sweep through the Gulf Coast killing two and heading toward Charlotte. Michigan is trying voluntary efforts to curb the severe out-of-control wave of COVID infections. Good luck with that. If you think it is bad here, the Myanmar army just killed 80 civilians in a single day. We could have had that here if DDT had his way. Down with DDT, lock him up.

9 April: MASA plus 79 days. Will sanity last? It is not clear with Russia all but starting a war with Ukraine that may involve the US. The situation is fraught. Putin is facing political unrest at home with elections coming up soon and his party behind in the polls. Ukraine serves as a distraction using false claims of protecting Russian-speaking people in eastern Ukraine. How much will we get involved or should get involved? Either path has its risks. The Matt Gaetz scandal bubbles on with calls for his resignation coming from fellow Republicans. Biden has called for a bipartisan commission to study the idea of expanding the Supreme Court after DDT blatantly packed the court with what he believed were Justices that would do his bidding. So far, this has not been the case even though the court has taken a decidedly rightward lean. Biden has released some of his first budget calling for more aid to impoverished areas, especially schools, and expanding funding for the CDC. This major 1.5 trillion budget would increase social spending while holding the huge military budget constant. At least the military budget will not be used for building a useless wall. West Virginia’s Manchin is standing in the way of Biden’s agenda. The best outcome will be a compromise that may also attract a few Republicans. In this vein, Biden planning a bipartisan discussion of his infrastructure plan on Monday. This is so different from the ego-bound DDT. Speaking of DDT, when are the court cases going to begin the process of locking him up? When do we want DDT locked up? Lock DDT up NOW.

8 April: MASA plus 78 days. Gun violence is n the agenda now and none too soon. Biden is taking executive action to reduce the level of shootings and deaths. His action is not as effective as if Congress would pass laws, but the available actions are much better than nothing. The big one he is addressing is the availability of ghost guns manufactured privately without serial numbers. Another big one is requiring background checks for private sales at gun shows. Commercial sales already have background checks. More shootings in Texas, one killed and 5 injured, 4 critically. The Chauvin trial grinds on with the defense largely ineffective. Without jury nullification or a hung jury, the verdict should be guilty from the portions of the evidence I have heard. It looks like the Senate filibuster rules will not be changed this session. We have to elect more democrats to both the House and Senate even if the filibuster rules stay. The one thing sensible people should not want is to have the Republicans back in control until the party becomes normal and able to govern. The Florida governor is suing the CDC to get cruises started even though COVID is roaring again. DeSantis is absolutely nuts and craven. Unless there are vaccination checks, which he has forbidden in Florida, a cruise ship is a death trap. COVID infection rates are rising with Canada edging close to the US rate. DDT has now come out supporting a far far right candidate for the Senate, a well-known bomb-thrower. Both establishment Republicans and Democrats need to defeat this bum. DDT has got to become the has-been he so richly deserves. Lock him up!

7 April: MASA plus 77 days. Biden has guts. He just unveiled six executive orders to curb gun violence, one of which requires background checks for ghost guns and made those pistols that can be used as rifles conform to rifle rules. Biden is negotiating on corporate tax rates (probably 25% instead of the origins 28%0 to get Manchin onboard. Biden really wants to get the infrastructure bill passed and change the US forever. The child immigration problem in Texas is totally out of hand and there is not much that can be done about it. The House majority has shrunk to 5 with pending special elections. Hold your breath. Just what we need with COVID occupying our attention is an outbreak of Parkinson’s disease thought to be caused by a common chemical, trichlorethylene, used in some household products and cleaners. South Carolina House OK’s a bill allowing open carry of guns without a permit. The good news is that the Iran nuclear deal might come back to life after DDT axed it. As with most things that DDT did, he needs to be locked up.

6 April: MASA plus 76 days. If the world has justice Derek Chauvin should go down. The testimony is all against him despite his lawyer doing his job to confuse the situation. I cannot imagine if the jury somehow nullifies the evidence and testimony. The good news, as of mid-April, everyone will be eligible for the COVID vaccine. We still have a long way to go to get to 70% inoculated, the point where herd immunity starts to have an effect. One only hopes the variants do not get around the vaccine in any significant way. Meanwhile, governors in both blue and red states are prematurely lifting the restrictions on group gatherings. We should know in a month or two whether it is a disaster. Brazil is an example of a situation where everything is going wrong and COVID is rampant. Florida’s Matt Gaetz is refusing to resign despite the accumulating evidence of sex trafficking with minors. This is going to get really ugly. It looks like the coup attempt in Jorden is quieting down with the king’s half-brother swearing allegiance to the king. More to come I suspect, since somehow Saudi Arabia is somehow involved. More shootings, and more dead and wounded. The democrats just got more leeway in the Senate to pass some seriously big bills with a simple majority. With some luck and a little bit of compromise, Biden could really change the US for the better. Navalny in Russia is brave and probably will die in prison with Putin’s hands. Watching this gives a big hint of what DDT would have liked for himself, an end to democracy and rule of law. We need DDT to go down. Lock him up.

5 April: MASA plus 75 days. Another quiet day without DDT. Interesting, under the Biden budget plan the wealthy will wind up paying the highest combined US tax rate. Yellen is now making the US back on the world stage. Senate Democrats can now officially pass bills with 52 votes according to the Senate parliamentarian. On Monday night, the Senate parliamentarian — an in-house rules expert — determined that Democrats would be able to do a third budget reconciliation bill this year, a massive development that gives lawmakers more room to pass legislation without Republican support. Biden may not get his increase in the corporate tax rate to 28%, but perhaps 25%. Oh well. McConnell is telling CEOs critical voting restrictions to stay out of politics, unless, of course, they are pushing Republican goals. Vaccine doubt apparently runs big through US evangelicals, especially white ones. Perhaps it is a form of natural selection. Another form of natural selection would be to lock up DDT.

4 April: MASA plus 74 days. Today was really beautiful, 72 degrees with a light breeze and a clear blue sky. Made me forget about all the problems. Biden is facing an impossible task getting his infrastructure bill through congress. Even his democratic party is giving him trouble. Senator Roy Blunt (R) called for cutting the 2 trillion dollar plan down to 615 billion. Sounds bad but might be the start of negotiations with Republicans to actually get something done, or not. Either way it is a start. Hunter Biden has written a tell-all book about himself that, well tells all, if you are interested. I’ll give Joe Biden, our president credit, he was a real father and stuck by his son. We seem to be reaching another milestone, or will soon, the beginning of the fourth COVID wave. All this based on the impatience of everyone to get back to “normal” in exchange for killing more people. Other things in the news is to not reach out to aliens (Michio Kaku, string theorist), Matt Gaetz hits new lows, really disturbing this about working from home (Microsoft) is that the bosses are thriving, but everyone else, not so much. Oh and DDT is calling for a boycott of all companies that are not racist. DDT, we don’t need him, lock him up

3 April: MASA plus 73 days. Today is quiet in most parts of the US and the rest of the world. Yes, there are scandals out there, Matt Gaetz’s child pay for sex, but this is small stuff that gives reporters something to write about, not real news that affects the rest of us. Like the con that DDT pulled on his supporters, like pre-checking donation boxes so that a $90 donation turned into $1000. Much was paid back with another con donation after the election. But then, what would you expect of a crook. The kingdom of Jordan had the King’s brother arrested on suspicion of a coup. The Suez canal blockage is turning into a fiasco with lawyers blocking the waterway and commerce. The George Floyd trial will resume on Monday. DDT-supporters are condemning Coca-Cola (calling it Woke Cola) and will drink Pepsi instead. Now Pepsi needs to come out against the Georgia voting catastrophe. There is a Florida environmental emergency as a wastewater pond leak threatens a radioactive leak. Derek Chauvin’s lawyer is trying to distract from the crime of murder by saying that the police feared the angry crowd. The problem is that the videos show nothing of the kind. He’s spitting into the wind. As for DDT, I want to give him the free housing he so richly deserves. Lock him up.

================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again.

2 April: MASA plus 72 days. According to the CDC, if you have been vaccinated it is safe to travel. But, what happens if there are people you know that have not been vaccinated, You can carry the virus even if you do not get sick. At this point, it is not known how easily vaccinated people can spread the virus. The nation continues to loosen up in a false hope that things can be normal. Of course, Florida leads the nation in COVID stupidity with the governor, Ron DeSantis, banning the use of so-called vaccine passports in Florida. It will be interesting to see what happens if the nation adopts some form of these passports. Iran and the US are going to hold nuclear talks in Vienna. Face to face? No, the idiots are going to sit in separate rooms. The real question is are they going to have a person run back and forth between the rooms or will they use the telephone. Funny, the UK issued a report claiming that they are race-neutral. Anyone that has ever been to the UK knows this is not true. The uproar has caused Boris BOJO Johnson to back off from the report after first supporting it giving evidence that his ears still work. The news just reported, using public records, that 55 large profitable US corporations paid zero tax. Many more paid little taxes. C’mon guys, zero is not a fair share. Baseball has yanked the All-Star game out of Georgia as part of a protest against the grotesque new voting laws. These in response to DDT claiming fraud where there was none. Well, it is time to lock him up for a long stay.

1 April 2021: MASA plus 71 days. It is April fool's day and we have plenty of Republican fools in Congress and State governments. The trial over George Floyd’s death grinds on with the jurors having to watch the gruesome recordings of his death and the indifferent Chauvin as Floyd dies. So far, from the reports, Chauvin seems guilty of murder. It’s hard to have an open mind on the matter. McConnell is pulling the same stunt again that he pulled with Obama, trying to block legislation that he knows will make it hard for Republicans to compete in an upbeat economy with fair voting rules. COVID keeps rising. A case with the Brazil variant was discovered in Michigan, which means it is loose in the community. Keep playing fast and loose and we will be back in a heavy lockdown or lots of people will die. It could be you. Biden has asked the head of the Department of Education to see if it is legal to forgive outstanding student loans. For the unemployed, I am in favor of this, for the reasonably employed not complete forgiveness. It’s so quiet without DDT, one could almost forget he existed except for his hyperactive clones who are likely to run for president, Ted big-mouth Cruz for example. As for DDT himself, lock him up ASAP.

31 March: MASA plus 70 some against. Why, because it involves a corporate tax hike. If past is prolog, then the infrastructure buildout will profit industry and the country enormously. The plan will improve U.S. transportation infrastructure, water systems, broadband and manufacturing, and a bunch of other goals. The big thing, as in the past, the infrastructure plan will lead to sustainable growth, and the outcome necessary to successfully compete with China. Coca-Cola has just come out on the right side of history and finally has opposed the attempt to limit voting. Of course, there had to be calls to boycott Coca-Cola first before the lightbulb went on. Today a suspect was arrested in the horrific mugging of a middle-aged Asian woman. There were two crimes, one legal, the mugging, and the other moral, refusal of help by witnesses. The courts will deal with one of these, but how do you deal with the moral disconnect. The idiots in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court have just overruled the governor's mask mandate even as COVID surges. On the southern border, smugglers dropped two girls, 3 and 5, over the fence into the US. How do you stop this? There is nothing in the news about DDT. So let’s just plan to lock him up.

30 March: MASA plus 69 days. The Derek Chauvin trial for the murder of George Floyd is under way with some frightening and sad testimony, especially the testimony from a medical responder who was denied access to Floyd before he died. Biden is specifying his bill to improve and replace the infrastructure as part of a several trillion-dollar plan. If he gets that through, Biden will remake the country the way Eisenhower and Congress did with the interstate highway system. Perhaps the result will just as great if this Congress goes along. The other piece of the puzzle is updating the tax laws for the country to be able to afford the national upgrade. The attacks on Americans of Asian background are continuing as an awful coda to long-standing racism. The racism against Asians is an old story in America, a story that makes no sense. Many were brought to the US in the 1800s to work on railroads and many more have followed to become an integral part of America. The outpouring of abuse at this point in time makes no sense except it is the fear of small-minded people. The most recent video of a middle-aged Asian woman being shoved to the sidewalk was bad enough, but the refusal to help her once the assailant was gone is unforgivable. COVID is rising again thanks to the nonsensical refusal of the state governments to keep in place the use of masks and the banning of large gatherings. Part of this is from the public obtuseness of DDT during his 4 years in office. So many dead, so many suffering, DDT needs to pay for his crimes both as president and as a private citizen. Lock him up

29 March. MASA plus 68 days. Took the day off. Lots of things happened, but it was pretty much the same as yesterday. As for DDT, Lock him up.

28 March, MASA plus 67 days. The big news is that the Suez canal ship is unstuck and ships are moving again. Phew. The stuck ship could have sunk the economies of Europe and even had an effect here if it had continued too much longer. The US is likely to issue some kind of vaccination verification document (vaccination passport). This will be really interesting. Perhaps the document will also be valid as a federal ID document for voting. If nothing else, it should encourage certain people to get the shot. The migration problem continues unabated with no one knowing how to stop it. The problem is a combination of criminal activity, climate changes, and lack of jobs. It is only going to get worse without intervention. Myanmar is becoming an atrocity of huge proportions. The military in Myanmar is largely composed of a special force totally separated from the country's civilian population and under no limitations, legally or ethically, about killing civilians. DDT still lurks in the background and will lurk with the intent of causing trouble until we lock hi him up. 

27 March MASA plus 66 days. The ship is still stuck at hundreds of millions of dollars per day and probably more. It will be interesting (like watching a cobra) to see how this effects the economy. Meanwhile, the cold war with China has gone into a deeper freeze. Nothing too dramatic so far, just banning certain UK officials from visiting China. China is playing hardball. In the end, it will backfire on China. The real story is in Georgia, our Georgia, with the voting rights fiasco as well as in other Republican states. Perhaps industry must react to this and pull out. It will take an economic slap for the idiots to pay attention. The justice department is looking at the Georgia law. Let’s hope there is a way to quash it before real damage is done. Right now that law allows the Georgia legislature to interfere in an election even to the point where they can invalidate votes they do not like. Ted Cruz played clown to the immigration problem today taking professional cinematographers on a wildlife documentary trip and making an ass if himself with his comments. The locals know he is faking indignation. Yes, there is a crisis and the administration is racing to handle it. DDT had 4 years and failed. Time to shut up Cruz and let Biden attempt to handle this. Today’s news has two instances of people exposing themselves on a hot mic showing their biases and racist ideas, one pilot and one teacher. The takeaway from this? Make sure the mic is turned off before sounding off. Climate change is high on Biden’s agenda right now. Couldn’t be soon enough. Scientists have detected a major slowing down of the Gulf Stream current that would portend freezing withers in Europe (think Hudson Bay) and roasting summers on the US east coast. The US is now experiencing a major surge in COVID deaths and hospitalizations that may require a lockdown to stop. Or, we could be like Brazil and just let people die. It’s a race between vaccination and the virus, with some of the variants probably being able to evade the vaccines. In NY the legal case is moving to cut DDT down to size very quietly. Good, move, send DDT very quietly to jail. Lock him up.

26 March: MASA plus 65 days and nights. That ship is still stuck in the Suez Canal blocking 20% of world commerce. Twenty percent might not sound like much, but if it continues, we all will feel it. If nothing else, getting that monster free will be a technical marvel or sheer dumb luck. Egypt is saying it will be freed over the weekend. Here’s hoping. Georgia has passed a law that makes it a crime to hand someone a bottle of water while they wait in line (to vote). Most (76%) feel that this is asinine. Next time they go to the polls, it’s simple, throw the bums out and get a real government in power. Then and only then will you be able to stand in line and get a drink of water at the same time. Wait. I’m wrong. If you throw those bums (Republicans) out, there won’t be any lines and you won’t need food or water. This means if the Republicans are out, they can have their silly law, and no one will care. Biden has invited Putin and Xi to a climate summit even though there are rising tensions between the three powers. Perhaps they can agree to disagree on the small stuff while they agree on how to save the Earth for humans. The sad news is that COVID cases are rising again here just as they are in the rest of the world. Ignoring the virus and pretending that all is normal is a death sentence for the unlucky few percent. Those kids partying on the beach is a case in point. Some will get sick and have long-term consequences, some will die, and a larger number will bring the virus back to friends and family that can spread death even further. Idiots, wear that mask until this is really over, and governors, quit playing roulette with people’s lives just so you can get elected again. It was almost comical seeing ted Cruz at the border complaining about the Biden administration, an administration that is racing to contain the flood of people without the insanity of kids in cages. Dominion (maker of voting machines) is suing FOX News for 1.6 billion in damages. Ethics does not seem to attract FOX’s attention but perhaps losing a pile of money will. This will be a case to watch. It pits the right to practice your business honestly against a motley crew of liars willing to destroy anything to get their way. Perhaps this time they will get their comeuppance. Who says Biden can’t be stupid? They are thinking of taxing drivers by the mile to pay for infrastructure development and maintenance. Yes, the government needs money for this huge project, but this will cause endless political pain. Raise the license tax, or add a tax on the value of the car (personal property tax), but not a mileage tax. No matter what is going on in the world, I still want DDT to pay for what he has done to America as a possible criminal and racist, and an instigator of insurrection. Lock DDT up.

25 March: MASA plus 64 days. Biden gave his first press conference today and it was refreshing. No lies, no bragging, but plenty of problems honestly addressed. Biden has a major problem with immigration, no doubt about it. He has to find a solution that both addresses the problem and has good “optics”. Not easy. I hope he succeeds. Meanwhile, the stock market is up and down with uncertainty about COVID and the China conflict. And, Biden says he is going to run again. I certainly hope so. Biden is hinting that he is getting tired of Republican intransigence and might head towards killing the filibuster. I don’t blame him. It’s a risky proposition, but getting voting rights is worth the risk. You can tell it is the right thing since McConnell is totally against voting rights and is terrified that Biden might pull it off. DDT is setting up his own website that will enable him to talk into an echo chamber of his very own racists. Lock DDT up as soon as possible.

24 March: MASA plus 63 days. Time marches on day by nearly identical day punctuated by horrors. Boulder itself is now thinking about some form of gun control, namely banning assault rifles. It is strange, a large majority of Americans favor stricter gun laws such as tighter background checks, but not the Republicans. If only the majority would vote the Republicans out of office by simply coming out to vote, the US might join the rest of the Western world in curbing these frequent massacres. The problem at the southern border is out of control, you do not have to be a Republican to see the chaos. VP Harris has been assigned to the effort to come up with a means to resolve the illegal immigration problem. Let’s hope she and the Congress are up to solving the problem. Voting rights. Senator Angus King (Independent, Maine) has said, “All-out opposition to reasonable voting rights protections cannot be enabled by the filibuster. If forced to choose between a Senate rule and democracy itself, I know where I will come down”. He’s right, it is time to make sure that the democratic process is for everyone. We may not be able to see our way through the black hole of Republicans restricting voting rights, but scientists have actually seen a black hole up close in terms of its magnetic field. The results are exquisite and can serve as a means of understanding how matter is absorbed and some is ejected in a tight beam. Now if we can just get rid of the Republicans trying to suck democracy into their black hole. DDT is still making noises about the Georgia election and trying to ruin the election officials. Time to lock DDT up.

 

23 March: MASA plus 62 days: The crises at the southern border grows worse by the day and Biden seems helpless to stop the migration. He’s deporting hordes, but not enough to stem the flow. The big problem is the unaccompanied children that are just piling up swamping the facilities as fast as they can be expanded. Going back to DDT’s cages is not a solution, nor is releasing them into the US wholesale. New of the wholesale release filters back and encourages even more to make the trip. It’s hard to blame them as their countries are such a mess economically and with the gangs. The only solution is to fix things for them at “home”. With climate change, this is impossible. What you are seeing at our southern border is going to happen worldwide. People living in the equatorial zone are going to migrate to higher latitudes to escape heat and drought. We are seeing the tip of the “iceberg”. Once again, we have had a massacre by a known mentally disturbed individual who was able to purchase guns just before he committed the horror at the supermarket in Boulder Colorado. Ted Cruz was stupid enough in the aftermath to shout that any regulation of guns was “they are going to take your self-defense guns away and just make it worse”. It’s a stupid false statement just meant to inflame gun owners for perceived political advantage, but then it is Ted Cruz behaving the way he always does with self-interest and no moral compass. The current Republican Party is filled with these types, racist opportunistic dummies that were encouraged by none other than the dummy-in-chief, DDT, instigator of insurrections, destroyer of the environment, destroyer of democracy, apparent financial criminal and fraudster, and molester of women. DDT needs to be in jail with some of his racist buddies like Ron Johnson. Lock them up.

22 March: MASA plus 61 days. More reasons for gun control. Six people killed in a Boulder Colorado supermarket. It just goes on. The next push from Biden is a big infrastructure bill. How big? In the trillions. Festering in the background is the immigrant crises at the border overwhelming the good intentions of the administration. The worst part of this is the unaccompanied minors and the attempt not to mistreat the children. It is just overwhelming the system. On the China front, Biden is paying tough. Today he sanctioned two high-level Chinese government officials over their role in persecuting the Uyghurs. If you want to see crazy, look at the beach scene in Miami. Stupid kids crowding into small spaces when the COVID infection rates are soaring particularly from the more infectious variants. The bad thing is that these kids will return to wherever home is and bring the virus back with them. The real villain is the pressure to reopen in both Democratic and Republican-controlled states. Just look at Europe going into lockdown again as a harbinger of what is to come in the US. DDT is in the news again, saying that removing the filibuster would be a disaster for the Republican Party. For once he is telling the truth. It would be a disaster if there were unfettered voting rights. This is crazy, Jack Dorsey has sold the NFT of the first tweet for 2.9 million. What is an NFT? It’s the electronic equivalent of Bitcoin. Dorsey's NFT is a certified copy of the first tweet that is registered by blockchain (NFT = non-fungible token). Musk was offered 59 million for an NFT of some song he is associated with. The world is insane, or at least the rich are insane buying things that make them richer in sort of a legal pyramid scheme. The price goes up because of the guaranteed scarcity of an item that is really useless. What is not useless is an NFT for DDT’s first orange jumpsuit. Lock him up!

21 March: MASA plus 60 days. Two months. DDT is planning to make his own Twitter equivalent platform. The silence has been wonderful. He’ll be back in the news shortly anyway because of all the pending court cases. Vaccine battles are heating up between Europe and the UK with the EU denying the UK the AstraZeneca vaccine. The GOP is doing its best to deflect from the 6-January right-wing insurrectionists by claiming that the known “Proud Boys” and “Oath Keepers” were just there to party and the real perpetrators were Antifa (NOT) and other liberal groups (NOT). Sixty Minutes just did a damning piece on those who committed sedition. Right now, the prosecutors are not charging sedition, but rather charging illegal entry, property destruction, interfering with legislation, and so on. Sedition will follow. OMG again. Florida is now leading the country in the number of COVID variant cases. Belatedly, Florida is trying to cut down on the Beach attendance during spring break, but not curtail open restaurants and gatherings. This will infect the rest of the country and cause a new lockdown. As for DDT, lock him up legally

20 March: MASA plus 59 days. It may be a sane administration, but it sure is faced with problems and is trying to solve them. The worst is the Central America plus Mexico immigration problem and perhaps second on the list is the overt racism against non-white non-Christian groups. Biden needs to get grip on the immigration problem that is both effective and humane. Part of the solution is helping Central America have more local opportunities and minimizing the effect of corrupt government and criminal gangs. Without those 3 items take into account, any policy will fail. Politically, it may be Bidens biggest problem in the 2022 Senate and House election. Racism is so overt that it boggles the mind. Now that DDT is out of office, we have Senator Ron Johnson leading the racism crowd with three Pinocchios in the Fact Finder column. The Washington Post presented a detailed list of the legal perils facing DDT. Some of these may lead to DDT being locked up and paying big financial penalties.

19 March: Masa plus 58 days. Two months into a sane administration facing a world that seems to be going insane. Between the racism being expressed, the turmoil with Russia and China, the southern border problem with immigrants, and the ever-evolving COVID-19 situation there is no respite in sight (Paris is back on lockdown and who knows which country is next). There is also all the normal trauma ranging from the sexual harassment with Cuomo and others to an earthquake in Japan, and the ever-present gun violence epidemic (the latest in Texas). Now there is a new terror being introduced into the workplace, AI. It seems that Amazon has introduced AI monitoring of its truck drivers that can sense when the driver yawns or is not wearing a seatbelt. This would be funny, except with little imagination one can see where this might be going, continuous monitoring of behavior and activities. It will be a little like being in jail with “big brother” always watching. This has to be stopped. It may be efficient, but it is also destructive. We cannot give ourselves over to machines. Finally, there is the unfinished business of DDT who needs to be locked up.

18 March: MASA plus 57 days. I would relish the words sane again if only things were sane. The Atlanta shootings and attacks on Asians just mirror the past and present actions against blacks, Hispanics, Jews, and not too long ago, against Irish and Italians. I would say that the US is an awful place to live except that the condition of racism and violence is even worse in other countries. No country is immune. I need not go into the history of violence over the past 100 years or the past 1000 years. It’s all written down and some remembered vividly. Pick a country, any country, except perhaps Iceland, and you will find such a history and in many such a present. In the US the violence has always been there against those different in thought or appearance. The big difference right now is the current unleashing of additional hate by DDT, which historically is just a continuous stream of hate and violence in modern times from the past to 2021. People are looking around trying to find a reason from some external source when the truth has always been embedded within for some individuals or perhaps most individuals. On top of personal animosities, there are religious conflicts, an ever-present turmoil of us against them. I know, since I grew up in the middle of overt racism and religious fanaticism. For part of my life, I was not even aware of the embedded bias against various groups of people that I inherited. A little is still there, hidden and suppressed, but very much still a small part of me. I watch for it and beat it down. But there are small leaks. I remember distinctly reacting negatively to a young black person coming in to lead a project and thinking for an instant “how did he get there”, until he started talking and I realized he more than belonged and was better than most. What is depressing is that the ugly thought even popped into my head at all. The trope, I inherited it, is not a good excuse. The passing of bias and racism between the generation must be stopped. On the good side, the House just passed a bill protecting the “dreamers” who came to the US illegally as children, but who are as American as any of us. The immigration problem is only going to be solved by improving living conditions in their home countries obviating the need to come north. There is the China meeting that started off roughly, the COVID vaccination program that is going well, 72 Democrats have signed a motion to expel Marjorie Taylor from congress, and Republican Chip Roy used the hearing on anti-Asian violence to glorify lynching and to criticize China. Even with all these problems, I still want to see DDT in jail.

17 March: MASA + 56 Days. It’s going on for nearly 2 months. Biden gave a TV brief briefing, but still no press conference. That’s coming very soon Biden says. Part of the briefing was a strong expression against the racist attacks on Asians that were spurred on by DDT. There also was a massive shooting incident against mainly Asian women operating legally in three different massage parlors. If not for someone recognizing the shooter, he would have gone to Florida for more killing. The shooter in interviews is clearly not in his right mind. We need some additional legal limitations on hate against racial groups. Is this good news for you? The IRS is giving you an extra month before you have to file taxes. Today, there is very heavy weather with tornados in the South with some destruction already. IN California, Governor Newsome is getting ready to oppose a recall election. Just think of how quiet DDT will be wearing orange.

16 March: MASA for 55 days. I basically skipped 16 March being a bit tired. All kinds of bills are percolating on the Democratic side of the House. Everything from taxing the rich and making corporations pay a fair share, an infrastructure bill, protecting voting rights expanded medical care, and a very limited form of gun purchasing regulation. All this is pending with the Republicans opposing every one of these bills. We are back to the party of NO. As for DDT, investigate and legally lock him up.

15 March: MASA + 54 days. Finally, Biden is considering a tax hike on the wealthy or near-wealthy, corporations, and hedge fund activities. The DDT tax cuts were insane pure political actions. I thought Bush’s tax cuts, other than the first, were unwarranted, but at least he was doing it for what he thought were economic reasons. Two more people have been arrested in the assault and subsequent death of a Capital police officer. At least the DOJ is making an effort to have consequences for the idiots that attempted insurrection. Cuomo has gone from a symbol of stability to one of total jerkhood. The details of his assault on women are disgusting. Some Republicans in Congress are taking credit for the COVID-19 relief bill even though they voted against it. Their problem is that the relief bill is popular with a large number of Republican voters as well as almost all Democrats. Meanwhile, the Democrats are pushing to make some provisions of the relief package permanent to reduce systematic poverty (safety net for the poor and middle class). There is no end to stupidity. Some prison guards are refusing to take the vaccine even though prisons are a hotbed of COVID. One hopes this is natural selection at work. More countries are suspending the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine because of problems with causing blood clots. There has been no similar problem with the US RNA vaccines nor, as yet, with the Johnson and Johnson adenovirus vaccine. The pretend DDT, Tucker Carlson, has been occupying himself with character assassination of women, particularly those that are mainstream news reporters. One might think that this is just more fetid hot air leaving Carlson’s mouth, but the upshot of his vitriol has been to have the lives of several reporters threatened over and over. Carlson needs to be removed from broadcasting just the way Tweets are removed when they are false or promote violence. Remove Carlson and send DDT to jail.

14 March: MASA plus 53 days. What is going on right now is crazy in the US. We are going down the path of Italy, opening up before the pandemic is controlled. Italy is going on lockdown again because of a surge in hospitalizations and we will likely follow that unfortunate path. Fauci is trying to warn us of the likely disaster ahead, but many states are not listening. The teens and early 20’s in Florida partying at the beaches are a case in point. Stacey Abrams is calling the Republican efforts to constrain voting “Jim Crow in a suit”. She is so right. I hope the Senate passes the voting rights bill that the House has sent them. It will take some guts on the part of the Democrats. While some are getting their stimulus checks early, at least 2 major banks are holding the money until the 17th. That might not seem like much unless you are desperately in need of the funds to eat or stay in your home. Every once in a while there is really good news. Today there was an announcement from Boston that a 12-year old prodigy is heading to college and aspires to be a NASA scientist. Time to begin a new week. The civil suits against DDT are proceeding. Unlike criminal trials, you can be deposed but cannot use the 5th amendment to avoid answering questions, and you can be penalized (jail) for lying. This should be interesting. The depositions can later be used in a criminal trial. As for DDT, lock him up, sooner rather than later.

 

13 March: MASA plus 52 days. The days march on with relative quiet even though lots of things are happening. The first stimulus checks have been delivered with lots more on the way. FOX News is going crazy over Biden’s speech because it was just about business and not about personality or attacks on anyone. Tucker Carlson (FOX) was simply outrageous claiming that this was the most radical speech he ever heard, especially the bit that we might be able to safely celebrate the 4th of July with family. In NY, the plight of Andrew Cuomo grows more desperate by the day. He has lost almost all Democratic support to continue as governor. Time to leave. Our brilliant Republican House representative, Ron Johnson, is claiming that the Capital rioters love this country so he felt perfectly safe (BS), but he would fear the BLM movement, which has done nothing remotely comparable. In the same vein, the Alabama Republican Party is resolving to anoint DDT as one of the greatest presidents ever, certainly the greatest loudmouth president ever. Some fully vaccinated people in Hawaii have tested positive for COVID. Scary, but well in the range of the statistics during testing of 95% effectiveness. Italy, which resumed “normal life” prematurely is now going back into lockdown. We should see the same here in a few weeks. As for DDT, keep working NY and lock him up.

12 March: MASA plus 51 days. Today was calm, politically speaking. The biggest thing is that some Americans have already received the 3rd stimulus check. Not very exciting, unless you are one of the recipients. The pressure continues for Cuomo to resign, but his stubbornness continues. The justice department expects at least 100 more arrests over the January 6th insurrection. The republican states are in open opposition to preventive measures to control COVID-19 calling Biden insane. The border problem is becoming worse, especially for unaccompanied children. A good number of these are children accompanied by parents or relatives up top the border. The housing system is being overwhelmed. Daylight savings time starts this Saturday. See, boring. As always, I have not forgotten the misbegotten DDT. Lock him up sooner rather than later.

11 March: MASA plus 50 days. I just listened to President Biden and am so disappointed. Where was the bombast, where was the self-glorification, where were the lies to get me mad? The speech was totally true, optimistic, and realistic, with promises of our ability to mostly return to normalcy by this summer including plans to reopen schools. But he did add the caveat that the COVID variants could cause problems and delays. In that same vein, the COVID relief bill was signed into law today. Biden mentioned it but did not do the self-glory bit even though it will hopefully relieve anxiety and despair for millions and may lead to permanent changes in the US safety net. We have a gun background check bill coming up that may test the Democrats and Republicans to do something sorely needed in this country, a little dose of sanity to slow the unnecessary deaths that occur every day. Nothing much else happened domestically today. Overseas is another story with the Afghanistan peace deal with the Taliban looking more and more like a disaster. The big question is what will Biden do? Continuing on the present course is likely to lead to slaughter and further civil war. The worst victims will be the women whose gains during the past 20 years are likely to be erased and reversed. China is tightening its grip on Hong Kong with further restrictions on voting and who can run for office. It’s time to remove Hong Kong’s special status as an economic haven that benefits China. The news out of NY is making it look worse and worse for good old DDT. See you in jail, buddy.

10 March: MASA plus 49 days. Remember today, the 10th. The House passed the COVID relief bill and sent it to Biden for signature. The provisions in the bill will have long-lasting effects on poverty, far beyond the COVID relief. There’s money for colleges, libraries, schools, vaccines, government services, small business relief, child tax breaks, small restaurant relief, rental and mortgage relief, homeless services, help on student loans, help for minority farmers that have been screwed for 100 years, and an expansion of the ACA (Obamacare). This overshadowed the approval of Merrick Garland as AG. Hopefully, he is a good one. Compared to the last AG, the Barr is low. Headline from Vanity Fair, “TRUMP’S ODDS OF GETTING AWAY WITH TAX FRAUD JUST TOOK A NOSEDIVE”. The article starts out with three main goals of DDT. First is to trick his supporters into giving him as much money as he can scam. Second, is to remain relevant even if banned from his favorite megaphone, social media. Third, is to avoid prosecution for a very large bunch of alleged crimes such as tax and bank fraud. According to VF, the New York prosecutor, Cy Vance, is after every scrap of evidence from DDT’s business activities over the past decade. There is a long list in the VF article, any one of which could send him to jail and cost big fines. Who knows, when all this is done, DDT may be homeless and in need of free housing and food (i.e., jail). Texas is in mask meltdown with the governor threatening to sue officials that do not follow his idiot orders of total reopening without masks. Oh WOW, DDT is now claiming that the US would never have developed a vaccine without him being president. Total BS. I’ll give him credit though for pushing funding for the project as would any president. Although, any other president would not have mocked the seriousness of COVID-19 and delayed the US response to the pandemic. Enough on DDT.

9 March: MASA plus 48 days. Winter is turning into Spring, and as usual nutty behavior is starting. It used to be that the nutty behavior was reserved for the young, teens, and so forth. Now the nut cases are in the governors opening up the states long before the pandemic is quelled. Nature will take its course and the virus will spread and mutate. The end result could be a lot of people dying from COVID along with jammed hospitals. Saying, “I told you so” is useless, since the people will already be dead and dying. The solution is available next November. Vote the Republican state governments out. The Biden COVID relief plan looks like it is a winner. The big items are fine and badly needed by many families to help them dig out of the hole created through no fault of their own. The interesting part of the package is the child tax credit of $300 per child per month. This is a permanent change that places a security floor under families with low incomes. If it can be kept in place for a few years, it will be as untouchable as Social Security. It will just become part of normal life. After offering huge tax cuts to the wealth during the past 4 years for DDT, the Republicans are now worried about deficits. The cure, simple, put the taxes back on the wealthy and leave the lower and middle classes alone. The trick is to tax adequately (so-called fair share) and not punitively and tax the big corporations so that they too pay a fair share. Factory work is picking up. Boeing, for the first time in a long time, has new orders at a faster rate than cancellations. If the reopening does not prove to be a disaster in the manner of DDT, then the economy should do quite well indeed. As for DDT, he is trying a hostile takeover of the Republican Party. Let’s make it really hostile and lock him up.

8 March: MASA plus 47 days. Today is women’s day, a celebration of how far we have come with reminders of how far we still have to go. Soon the first astronaut to walk on the moon will be a woman. As with every other form of discrimination, discrimination against women must go. Governor Cuomo’s sex accusations keep expanding, but Cuomo is refusing to resign. This may be his right, but politically he will be sidelined. The other big question is if it can happen to Cuomo, then why not DDT for the same actions against women. The immigration problem at our southern border is worsening every day. The only solution is to make things better in the immigrant’s home countries. Between the President and Congress, it is time for constructive action to convince people that life will be better at home. The Republican National Committee has rejected demands by DDT and his lawyers that they ceased using his image and name for fundraising. Good try. The QAnon shaman claims his presence on January 6th was just a publicity stunt. Sorry buddy, the judge did not buy it, so enjoy jail and the free food. On the world front, there is a crisis brewing in Afghanistan where the US is trying to leave and end its role in the war by arranging a joint government with the Taliban. Good luck as the Taliban expands its military control on the ground. I just feel sorry of the regular people who will have to live under extremist rule, especially the woman. As always, we need to solve a future problem with DDT by locking him up if a judge and jury agree that he is the crook that he appears to be.

7 March: MASA plus 46 days. Harry and Meghan told “all” tonight. I’m sure it will roil the UK no end. But it is clear that being caught in that web that is the institution of the Royal Family is no joke for anyone living it. On our side of the pond, Cuomo appears to be the walking dead. The pressure to resign is growing daily over the concealing of nursing home deaths (which makes no sense) and of course the apparent sexual harassment accusations. Plus, reports of his volcanic personality and his feeling that he could just erupt at anyone any time he felt like doing so is that of a person that has no business in high office. The big issue coming up is election reform, which if it is to occur will require filibuster reform first. I did not realize it, but the filibuster was a rather late occurrence in our democracy and its origins were that of overt racism. When the parties worked together in the past, the filibuster rules served a purpose to keep the government closer to the center. That has failed, so now the filibuster serves no useful purpose. New rules are needed. West Virginia’s Joe Manchin seems open to the change. This preserves the Democrats 51 to 50 majority. Biden has already done what he can with executive orders telling the federal agencies to do what they can to foster voting rights and to publicize those rights. Now is is up to the Senate. McConnell may be right. If voting is fair and open, Republicans may never win another election, unless they change as a party of power-hungry bigots. Lindsey Graham is still making a deal with the devil, saying that yes DDT has a dark side but also has magic, and he wants to harness the magic. Poor Lindsey, he will go down in history as a racist anti-democracy shill. I have no sympathy. The COVID vaccination program is going gangbusters with firm leadership for the administration and really good cooperation from the states. The vaccine supply is growing rapidly as is distribution. The only concerning thing is how long the protection will last and the effect of the viral variants eluding the stimulated antibodies. The other disease we have it eradicate is the disease affecting our democracy personified by DDT. The solution is simple. Convict him for his legal trespasses and Lock Him Up.

6 March: MASA plus 45 days. Today is the day. The day that the COVID relief plan passed the Senate and is headed back to the House to approve the changes. There is more in there than just the $1400 check and the $300 unemployment through September. Apparently, DDT is refusing to let the Republicans use his name or image in fundraising. This is both funny, dangerous, and sad. What it means is that DDT will use his own name and image to raise money to defeat the existing Republican party in the Republican primaries and remake the party further in his own image. All hail DDT. An interesting comment made about Biden, to wit, that so far Biden has done a huge amount but has zero passed legislation. The pope and the grand Shia ayatollah sat down in Iraq together to discuss mutual tolerance and a call for unity of their separate religions. It would be very nice if this meeting actually produced positive results. Europe is undergoing a surge in COVID as the variants cause chaos. With some of our states totally removing masks and social distancing, the US will not be far behind. The real tragedy is that these variants are not blocked by the vaccines. With Biden, the vaccine distribution has really accelerated with coordinated national planning. This is such a contrast to DDT and his bungling and lies. As for DDT, lock him up before he causes even more harm.

5 March: MASA plus 44 days. Another quiet day at the office, or was it? The southern border problem is heating up and it is not clear what to do about it. The biggest problem is a growing horde of unaccompanied children overwhelming the system and facilities. There are lots of adults streaming North also, especially since the rules went into effect for 72 hours of processing and then release. Neither DDT’s draconian policies nor and a policy or quick release is going to work. We need more investigators and more immigration judges to start and reasonable facilities for the children. What is clear is that we cannot simply have an open door. Closer to home, the $15 minimum wage is dead for now. Hopefully, there is a compromise for a lesser amount. The stimulus bill is closer to passage with some too generous benefits reduced. Next comes the voting rights bill as passed by the House. This will never get past the Senate under current rules. Perhaps it is time to throw out the filibuster rules for such an important piece of legislation. Republicans are terrified. Well, not real Republicans, but the jerks that today call themselves Republicans but really are right-wing reactionaries after power at any cost. It looks like the US is going to start managed research programs into critical areas of science in cooperation with government labs, private industry, and universities. This is to compete with very focused Chinese programs. We should have started this ages ago. More email hacks, this time Microsoft mail servers with over 30,000 sites hacked. As for DDT, as usual, please find space for the creep (in jail).

 

4 March: MASA plus 43 days. Time seems slower than it used to without our beloved PINO DDT shooting his mouth off. I sort of miss him and his everyday barrage of lies and nonsense. Now five states are canceling mask mandates with not very good possibilities for the rest of us. Perhaps it will change when the hospitals fill and more people die. You remember the idiot with his feet on Pelosi’s desk. Well, today he was in court yelling that it was not fair that the court was moving slowly on very serious charges. Now I see. The QAnon rumor mill put out a warning of an attack on the capital again. Turned out it was a dud prediction. If they spread false rumors often enough, they will be ignored until one threat turns out to be real. EU is having a vaccine spat fighting for the AstraZeneca vaccine that almost no one is using trying to prevent some from being shipped to Australia. The stock market is tanking again today. Not sure why. The excuses about the bond market make no sense. As usual, my sincere wishes for DDT. Lock him up.

3 March: MASA plus 42 days: The stimulus bill is moving forward slowly. The newest wrinkle is that the Democrats have agreed to limit eligibility to people earning under 80K for relief checks saving a bunch of money but 17 million people will not get stimulus checks. Biden went nuclear today saying that the Texas governor was engaging in Neanderthal thinking when it comes to lifting the mask rules. The House has canceled its Thursday session after the police warn of a possible plot to attack the capital. The DDT led Pentagon to block troops from getting to the capital for hours according to the DC National Guard Commander. Yesterday there was a rocket attack on a US base in Iraq with no casualties. Today the US warned of a possible military response to the attack. Iran is playing with fire seeing how far it can go before there is an all-out war. On the COVID front, things are calm, deaths are still declining slightly as are new infections. That could change with the inmates (Republican governors) in charge of the asylum the are Texas and Mississippi. Even though DDT was quiet today, at least in public, one can hear the ticking time bomb. The best thing is to lock him up ASAP.

2 March: MASA plus 41 days. Biden’s OMB nominee has withdrawn to end the controversy over disparaging remarks about senators made while DDT was president. She has taken one for the team. Nothing Neera Tanden said was anywhere near the rhetoric displayed by DDT and his trained monkeys. At least she told the truth even if it was not diplomatic. There is a headline that says the Republicans just blew the voting rights case in front of the Supreme court. Good luck with that. It’s true that their paper bag did not hold water, but the right-wing majority on the court may not care once they have to decide in favor of suppressing minority voters. We’ll just have to wait until the summer to find out. The FBI director, Wray, has testified that the January 6th riot was indeed domestic terrorism. So far the only people in the videos taken that day were right-wing extremists and not the left-leaning groups that are now the darlings of FOX news lies. Listening to them rewrite history would be funny if only a fringe group believed that nonsense. The nonsense is that it was a jovial group except for some left-wing impersonators that stormed the capital. Well, the videos do not lie. Texas, and now Mississippi, have lifted the requirement for masks and for social distancing. I hope they get what they deserve, and the overwhelming of their hospitals. The problem is that what happens in Texas will not just stay in Texas. The foolish Republican governor is trying to distract attention from his miserable handling of the power emergency by making himself the center of attention to those in the GOP that could be described as “I don’t give a damn about you”. As for DDT, the sooner he has his day in court and a few years in jail, the better.

1 March 2021: MASA plus 40 days: DDT only got 57% of the vote at CPAC. At CPAC only 57%, perhaps a harbinger of doom for both the GOP and DDT. Democrats need to retake state governments and stop the interference in voting rights. What happened to Cuomo. He went from hero to heel on the basis of false data and now on sexual harassment allegations. The stimulus bill is moving forward with $1400 checks soon to be released. The really bad news is that the NYC vaccine-resistant COVID virus is spreading outside of NY with 735 now identified cases. The Senate has confirmed another cabinet member Miguel Cardona for education secretary. As a remnant of DDT, the Georgia House has passed a GOP bill rolling back voting access. After a significant fall, the stock market jumped up today on news of the stimulus vote and the J&J vaccine. After the CPAC performance by DDT, we need to get him legally locked up.

28 February: MASA plus 39 days. Today was the day that CPAC allowed DDT to pontificate his desire to control the GOP and mold it into his own corpulent image. The mean false remarks about everyone that opposed him, including President Biden were back again. He’s still fighting his 7 million vote loss to Biden and insisting that HE, DDT, is the only path to victory. Biden is refusing to condemn Saudi Arabia for the Khashoggi murder under the principle that the US government does not go after heads of state. This is probably true and probably a good idea, but it is frustrating that the crown prince can get away with murder and incur little penalty. Enough for a Sunday. As for DDT, lock the fool up.

27 February: MASA plus 38 days. That golden statue of DDT at CPAC is a mockery, right down to the magic wand needed to win elections (https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2021/02/golden-trump-statue-cpac-mexico.html). It’s a big joke that should make people laugh at him. At the same time, it looks like Cuomo is toast over the nursing home death numbers scandal. As expected, House GOP voted against the COVID relief bill. I hope they pay come election time. Among many others, a Texas woman received a $9300 electricity bill and is suing. The bill is completely crazy and irresponsible. A recent science result showing that the Gulf Stream circulation current is weakening, which could imply harsher winters for England and Scandinavia. I’m not sure what it does for the US east coast. Hotter summers? More vaccines are going to be available with Johnson and Johnson’s vaccine now approved. Over 42 million have been vaccinated already with many more to quickly come. As usual anymore with Biden in office, things are calm even though happening at a fast pace but without chest-thumping from DDT. As for DDT, let the courts lock him up.

26 February: MASA plus 37 days. Looks like the $15/hour wage is a goner at least for now. Perhaps we’ll get an $11 wage. Or perhaps we’ll keep starvation wages but retain the Republican ideas of the dignity working while homeless and hungry, a sort of modern slavery. Funny. There is a ridiculous golden-calf statue of DDT at CPAC showing a Santa Claus image of DDT laughing its head off with a full head of hair. It's official, though, The Republican Party has ruled that to be a member you have to worship and kiss the feet of the statue without wearing a mask while swearing everlasting loyalty to the new god with an annual pledge of 10% of your income to be used by DDT and his acolytes. All hail DDT.   Biden is taking heat about the attack in Syria. Doing nothing would have been worse. At least he has both spine and moderation, and has warned Iran to be "careful". The Feds are on guard for domestic extremists targeting Biden’s State of the Union speech with a threat to blow up the capital. Perhaps nothing will happen. As for DDT, the sooner those tax returns are analyzed along with his business papers, the sooner New York can give him free housing. Lock him up.

25 February: MASA for 36 days: Unfortunately, the world has intruded and Biden has exacted revenge for a rocket attack on the US in Iraq by bombing Iranian troops in Syria. Let’s hope a message has been sent and that is it. Probably not. The next thing is Biden’s address to Congress for his first state of the union speech. Rumor has it that there will be another attack on the capital during his speech. Let’s hope the rumor is false and that if it turns out to be true, the capital police are better prepared. And then there is Marjorie Greene who has attacked a colleague's daughter over the fact that she identifies as transgender. This is part of a general attack by her on LGBTQ rights. She came in as a populist funded by small donations, a significant portion of which she has been spending at fancy restaurants. There is another storm brewing, this time with Saudi Arabia. Bisen is about to release the report on the Khashoggi murder and has spoken to Saudi Arabia’s King Salman before the release of a report blaming his son. It will be interesting to see what happens when that report gets released. Apparently, we have a UFO sighting by an American Airlines pilot who saw a long cylindrical object zoom by while over New Mexico. Might have been an advanced cruise missile or a real UFO with aliens. In spite of a speech condemning DDT, McConnell says he will absolutely support DDT in a 2024 run for president. So much for heartfelt recognition of a president who encouraged sedition. Perhaps both DDT and Mitch should be locked up together. Yes, Lock them up.

24 February: MASA plus 35 days. DeJoy is still there, but his days may be numbered. Biden has appointed new members of the postal board that may be more sympathetic to the country’s need rather than destroying the post office. The GOP war is started with Liz Cheney saying the DDT shouldn’t be part of the GOP whereas McCarthy says he should. Biden is now seriously going after correcting the lack of critical manufacturing in the US, such as computer chip manufacturing. Some of Biden’s nominees may be in trouble with at least some Democrats, particularly the nominee for OMB whose big mouth against some senators in the past have caused resentment. It’s so quick that Moderna is starting booster shots for the variant for South Africa. Now they have to work on the California variant that seems every bit as bad as the South African one. As before, other than Biden running the government like a quiet professional doing and undoing, there is nothing explosive happening. As for DDT, he needs to be in jail. Lock him up!

23 February: MASA plus 34 days. It looks like the insurrection was partly successful because of a huge breakdown in communication between the Capital Police and the FBI. The FBI had wind of the upcoming violence, reported it, but was basically ignored, including failure to adequately distribute an ominous bulletin provided by the FBI the night before warning that protesters were "preparing for war.". On the prosecution front and the tax returns, DDT has branded the investigation a witch hunt. In that he is right, it is a witch hunt, and evil witch hunt, and we know exactly who the witch is (fingers point to DDT).  And then there is Georgia and election interference that is a plain and easy call with the recorded phone call "find me 10,801 votes".  As has been the case for a while now, the domestic scene is "hold your breath".  As for DDT, the sooner he gets locked up the better.

22 February: MASA plus 33 days. I forgot to upload the file yesterday, so here is the abbreviated version. The Supreme Court handed DDT the ultimate defeat in ruling that his tax returns can be released to the NY AG for tax evasion and bank fraud investigations. They also threw out the last of the election cases as having no basis in reality. And this from the conservative judges he so carefully inserted onto the court as his last line of defense. DDT the loser strikes again. As for DDT, the best thing for the US is to lock him for low crimes and fraud.

21 February: MASA plus 32 days. It’s been a long month and a somewhat quiet month so far aside from 6 January. Much has occurred in Biden’s quiet way of doing lots of work in a short time. The big news is that apparent start of a beginning of thinking about or at least talking about starting a 3rd political party, one led by DDT, a sort of new branded T-Party, a party of natural selection of potential insurrectionists all located conveniently in one bucket. This will be a party devoted to destroying the GOP members disloyal to the DDT party. Almost half of existing Republicans would join. If natural selection works the way it is supposed to, DDT and his followers will go extinct, but not without a real physical fight. The country is nearing 500,000 deaths with no immediate end in sight. Fauci now estimates that we will be wearing masks in 2022. Oh, Joy! The Biden-nominated AG Merrick Garland is vowing to target white supremacists, which means that DDT’s fate may partly hang on the success of Garland’s confirmation. This is important since McConnell threw DDT’s insurrection case to the Justice Department, a move that Democrats will certainly back. Almost everything is quiet with no drama or chest-beating at least until DDT addresses the ultra-conservative CPAC. As for DDT, I’m waiting for Georgia and New York to lock him up. It’s a race to the finish line.

 

20 February: MASA plus 31 days: Every day I have been reading about gun deaths. Today the headline article is about a shooting in a gun store (irony anyone) leaving only 3 dead. Hardly worth worrying about give the much larger numbers dying collectively in the US every day. If only guns were a means of natural selection. The incompetent governor of Texas had the grace today to thank Biden for relief from the freezing weather disaster. DDT is about to address CPAC, a conservative right-wing PAC, as his first step back in the public eye. It should be quite a show with all that pent-up energy now that DDT has been kicked off Twitter permanently. It’s quiet today, so this will be short. As for DDT, the sooner he is locked up and his fortune diminished the better.

19 February: MASA plus 30 days. Texas is still freezing with water leaking from its pipes representing a massive failure of the state government to require industry standards on its electrical power system. Now some residents are being charged exorbitant amounts on their power bills ($9,000) because of rules that let power providers charge whatever rates that reflect their need to make a profit even in a situation like this one. Russia persists in persecuting Navalny by now sending him to a labor camp where he is likely; to be abused. The question is how will the Biden administration respond? Russia is already threatening us if sanctions are imposed. Then there is Sombrero Ted (Cancun Ted) Cruz under extreme fire for leaving freezing Texas that he purportedly represents for the warmer climes of Mexico, a 4-day trip truncated to 10 hours by word of the ensuing political uproar. Teddy initially blamed his teenage daughters, but finally fessed up when motive revealing texts between his wife and friends became public. I’m with Texas, he should resign. Senate Democrats are advancing Biden’s $1.9 trillion dollar COVID relief bill that is still a cliffhanger. As for DDT, the courts need to lock him up for what seems certain criminal behavior in Georgia and New York

18 February: MASA plus 29 days: Ted Cruz made it back to Texas as fast as he could from Cancun where the sun was just too hot. Right. The truth was he left 3 days early in a hurry because his Texas constituents were freezing while he escaped.  Didn’t look good, did it? Houston Chronicle got it right, “As Texans froze, Ted Cruz got a ticket to paradise. Paradise can have him.” Poor Ted he deserves to have it hot, and now it is. The power is back, but water pipes have burst to ruin houses and limiting drinking water. Biden is now reversing DDT on Iran and is ready for talks on their nuclear program. He is also offering a path to citizenship for millions of long-term undocumented residents. Biden is also trying to get the infrastructure bill passed to repair sorely damaged bridges and roads. Republicans were pushing this while DDT was President, but now that it is Biden, they are practicing saying NO. The dissolution of the Republican Party is starting as the rift divides GOP donors between McConnell and DDT. To me, neither is a beacon of enlightenment with both more interested in personal power than serving the country. Forget philosophy, they have none. Just power. As for DDT, the best antidote to his power-guzzling and cheating habits is to lock him up.

17 February: MASA plus 28 days. A senator and the NAACP have filed a lawsuit under old legislation intended to curb the KKK at the end of the civil war. If they prevail, DDT will be out of business. Texas is freezing largely due to an incompetent Republican State government that refused to follow Federal regulations on protecting their grid from extreme weather. Remember, vote Republican and you can also expect your world not to function when you need it most. I almost forgot, Rush Limbaugh has gone to the great beyond somewhere. The silence is deafening but I am sure that there is another lying windbag in the woodwork. Rush was an incendiary radio talk show host who openly worshipped the money he was paid to lie to Americans and admitted that it was all an act. There is no law that says a talk show host has to have integrity, only the requirement that he gets colossal ratings. Goodbye Rush. I hope you are in a better place and it is not too hot. Eight people shot this time in Philadelphia. How much will it take to get some sensible gun control? The US Government is seizing 11 million fake N95v masks labeled with the #M trademark imported from China. These were destined for front-line workers in hospitals in Washington state who are now out 11 million dollars. DDT is after McConnell for telling the truth about the 6 January insurrection and McConnell is after the soul of the Republican party. Is McConnell feeling patriotic? No, he’s just after returning to a position of power. As for DDT, let lawsuits and prosecutions put him in jail.

16 February: MASA plus 27 days.  I took the day off from writing about a slow-moving DDT disaster. the end of the disaster for DDT will be a plus for the US. DDT in jail.

15 February: MASA plus 26 days: It is as I thought it would be, DDT is planning to disrupt the 2022 elections by fielding primary opponents against incumbent Senators and Representatives. He’s a danger both because of his unhinged personality and his antagonism against anyone he views as disloyal to him personally. This cult of personality is the lifeblood of dictatorship. Now he is thinking of having his daughter in law run for the Senate. That’s all we need is his family entrenched in the government. Even McConnell seems to recognize the danger and seems to be planning to thwart DDT’s plans. How effective his belated change of mind will be, no one knows. Our hope is that there will be criminal and civil proceedings against DDT based on his former business practices (New York), his interference in the election process (at least Georgia), and a number of personal lawsuits claiming molestation and defamation of character. Now that he is not president, these could sink him. Pelosi is forming a commission to investigate the 6 January attacks that will be sure to feature DDT prominently, perhaps even forcing him to testify under oath. That would be a riot worth watching. COVID cases are diminishing because of mask-wearing and social distancing, not because of increasing vaccinations. The latter will kick in later this year and hopefully further reduce the problem. The vaccine supply is still not adequate to meet the demand, partly because there is still no coherent federal policy. We are still living under a DDT policy of letting the States handle their own problems. Meanwhile, the number of variants keeps growing and will continue to grow until this pandemic is brought under control, A little good news, Dr. Fauci has won a million-dollar prize for defending science (under hazardous conditions). As for DDT, save the nation, lock him up.

14 February: MASA plus 25 days: It’s Valentine’s day and the first day of DDT being unleashed again to wreak havoc on the United States democracy thanks to spineless Republicans too afraid of their own shadows to convict a criminal President. It is time to destroy the Republican party at the ballot box in 2022. It’s the only way to break the apparent spell and get those complicit in the conspiracy to condone insurrection out of office. The names are known, and it’s time for them to go. Even McConnell, who excoriated DDT, but nonetheless voted to acquit, must go. Cowards all. Linsey Graham is complaining about McConnell’s anti-DDT speech, claiming that it will hurt Republicans in 2022. One can only hope so. We can hope that the evidence that the Democrats presented can be used in a court of law with a judge and jury for a possible path to conviction for real crimes and forget the misdemeanors. Biden is calling for Congress to pass stricter gun control laws in memory of the Parkland shootings and the thousands of shootings since Parkland. Biden called for several provisions including background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating legal immunity for gun manufacturers. I applaud the attempt, but it probably will not get far in the gun-crazed congress. Biden said, “we owe it to all those we’ve lost and to all those left behind to grieve to make a change.” They caught the mentally ill homeless man who stabbed people on the NY subway. At least one form of terror is resolved. Russia is moving to suppress any form of political expression in light of Navalny’s imprisonment. This is the kind of mass movement that Putin fears above all else. Before I said that DDT would be unleashed. He has more than $30 million to spend on campaigns in 2022, and if I remember correctly, over $200 million in the PAC scam he pulled raising money to fight the election but the fine print said that the money was his to use. As for DDT’s future, LOCK HIM UP.

13 February: MASA plus 24 days. Today the Senate found DDT guilty (57-43), but not by a 2/3 majority, so he remains not convicted, but guilty, nonetheless. Almost immediately, DDT messaged that he was about to be heard from again, saying we have just gotten started. After this, we can only hope that Georgia and New York get this criminal off the political streets. The arguments of the DDT defense were pathetic and unnecessary, the verdict was preordained, they could just as well have defended a bagel having a hole in its middle and the DDT vote would have been the same. With the circus over, the clowns can back into their clown car (the Republican party) and let the Democrats try to fix the nation. FYI: I got my second Pfizer COVID shot 5 hours ago and so far no negative reaction, except for my negative reaction to DDT's lack of formal conviction. For that I am sick. As for DDT, lock him up. When do we want him locked up? Lock him up NOW!

12 February: MASA plus 23 days: The circus continued, and is over now, with clowns for lawyers presenting DDT’s “defense”. It doesn’t matter since the outcome is prejudged out of spineless fear. These senators would rather put their own damn petty jobs over the fate of the country. That lying piece of *#*! that is our former president is guilty beyond any doubt. The Republican party needs to split between those that have principles and those without spines. The DDT lawyers struggled to answer even basic questions since they were just mouthpieces for DDT and were spouting the party lie. Biden apparently fired an aide that made inappropriate remarks to a reporter. Looks like there is now a record of people who have been vaccinated that have also now been reinfected but are not likely to get seriously ill. The percentage is small but significant. The bottom line is that vaccination does not mean you stop wearing a mask until herd immunity is reached a long time from now. The $15 minimum wage is dead, having been opposed by at least one Democratic senator, Krysten Sinema. The problem with all of this is when the senate acquits and DDT will be unleashed again to disrupt the country again. Perhaps Georgia will get DDT. Right now I want him to be locked up.

11February: MASA plus 22 days: 3-weeks have passed with an “unnatural quiet” except for the Democrats making their insurrection case in the Senate. DDT, when not playing golf, is keeping his head deep in the sand sounding more intelligent that he did in 4 years of being PINO. Tomorrow the DDT case will be presented, which essentially says, yes he said all those words but we all know that he didn’t mean what you heard and the crowd was all a McConnell staged event. Case over, the verdict cannot be guilty because we cannot get a 2/3 majority. The big exciting news is that we had snow, and will have more snow this coming week. The funniest thing yesterday was a lawyer appearing by zoom in front of a judge who had a rabbit filter in place. Biden has rescinded the emergency order for the Southern border while at the same time turning back high numbers of economic refugees. Too bad for people who walked 1000 miles plus a large number of Mexicans attempting to cross the border. The big question is whether there will be a DDT led third party where all the kooks can gather in a circular firing squad. It might take a few years, but there is the possibility of a real Republican party emerging from the ashes. The Georgia felony case for DDT directly interfering in Georgia’s election process is moving along. As for DDT, lock him up.

10 February: MASA plus 21 days. The House “prosecutors are presenting evidence” that is bad enough for us to watch. Worse is the behavior of some prominent Republican Senators pointedly ignoring the proceedings. Most outrageous was Hawley perched in the balcony reading other papers with his feet up on the furniture. Goodbye Hawley. The Republican Party needs to disappear. It is an embarrassment. In the White House, Biden is still making changes quietly like backing off on DDT’s Tik Tok ban, a move that may not be a good one, and some that are ot so quiet, like imposing sanctions on Myanmar military leaders. The result of the impeachment trial and Biden’s obvious competence is that favorable views of the GOP have declined substantially. Sadly, India is going down the road to dictatorship with Modi trying to repress speech that opposes his rule. Interesting, Europe’s oldest person at 116 has survived COVID. Mars is getting crowded with three spaceships (China, UAE, and the US) arriving and one attempting to land. Georgia is investigating DDT for interfering in an election process, a crime that has at least a year in jail. So, as for DDT, lock him up on a criminal conviction.

9 February: MASA plus 20 days. Many things are happening in the Biden administration, but quietly. In a month or two, the accumulation of results will have turned the ship of state around and back to a sensible course. DDT’s impeachment trial is proceeding with his defense very awkward and poorly done. It is being mocked by GOP senators. The House prosecutors did a very good job holding the attention of most senators, who were taking copious notes. The COVID relief bill is progressing nicely with Biden agreeing to tighter income limits on relief checks. A conviction of DDT could mark the start of the Republican party being able to be capable of honest governing again. As it is now, the GOP needs to split into two parties, the nut cases, and responsible conservatives. This situation is very similar to the old “Know Nothing” party of long ago that faded into obscurity. COVID shots are becoming available again as the supply gradually increases, but there is a lot of variation from state to state and counties within those states. Thanks DDT for not planning the vaccine roll out at the federal level and leaving chaos behind. Biden is taking a firm but cautious approach to relations with China. We’ll have to wait to see how this and new relations with Russia play out. As for DDT, lock him up.

 

8 February MASA plus 19 days: More snow ahead and very cold weather. COVID shots delayed by Hogan’s playing around with vaccine distribution causing shortages. I can just see the lines forming at CVS and Giant that have no facilities for handling crowds. Oh well. I hope you guys listened to that piano playing link I included yesterday. Phenomenal. Now that all the serious stuff is out of the way, we have the DDT trial looming with all the serious pondering that the Senators will do about the guilt of our former possibly criminal President. Schumer and McConnell have reached a deal on the outlines of the process that includes 16 hours for each side to present their case. I can’t wait for the civil and New York State lawsuits to start to keep him busy and out of our hair. On the State level, the Georgia Secretary of State is investigating DDT’s efforts to overturn Georgia’s election. The first draft of the COVIS stimulus bill is ready in the House and should be to the Senate in the near future. That flood from the collapsed Himalayan glacier has killed 25 people with 165 missing. One man was miraculously pulled from the mud quite joyously to be alive. On the COVID front, South Africa has stopped its vaccination program because the vaccine is not effective against the variant rampaging there. The Navalny dispute is heating up with Germany, Poland and Sweden expelling Russian diplomats. I expect more will come. Tesla (Musk) has purchased $1.5 billion of Bitcoin and will accept payment in Bitcoin. This should really boost the Bitcoin price since other businesses will probably follow suit. As for DDT, lock him up.

7 February: MASA plus 18 days. Forget politics and football (Tampa Bay). Listen to Jonah Ho at age 5 to 10 on https://www.pinterest.com/pin/629659591640237397/ or find him on YouTube. Amazing. The DDT trial will be paused on Saturday (Jewish Sabbath) out of respect for DDT’s sensibilities. Right! The US is rejoining the UN human rights council reversing DDT. The prediction now (Fauci) is that by this summer mass vaccinations will be well underway, and the supply shortages will be a thing of the past. The fly in the ointment is that the variants that have popped up and are resistant to the vaccine’s stimulation of our immune system. This means that booster shots will have to be developed until COVID is under control globally. The most alarming piece of news was the collapse of a Himalayan glacier in India inundating a village as a forerunner of other climate change disasters in the offing. Extreme weather, flooding, drought, and excessive heat are in our future for those parts of the Earth not covered by a rising ocean. An then we had DDT removing US climate change protections now thankfully be partly reversed by President Biden. As for DDT, lock him up.

6 February: MASA plus 17 days: The furious pace continues with the COVID relief bill set to go through congress, the Senate trial of DDT getting set to start soon, and Biden’s State of the Union address next week. It looks now as if the $15 minimum wage will not be included in the stimulus bill. Perhaps later. The Supreme Court has denied the state the right to ban super spreader church worship, but the decision was very mixed. The liberals tongue-lashed the ultra-conservatives for ignoring science and th e public need to protect people. I’m so shocked! The Wyoming Republican Party has decided that they will not back Liz Cheney in her next bid for office in the House 2 years from now. LC is not liberal by any means, but not a bomb-throwing radical either. Time to support her. School reopening is becoming a flashpoint issue depending on where you live. I am sympathetic to the teachers and think they should get the vaccine ASAP, but also think that they should be back teaching soon thereafter. The most exciting thing happening is that we are going to get more snow. As for DDT, Lock him up.

5 February: MASA plus 16 days. Lou Dobbs (a FOX news DDT ally and jerk) is gone and will not be back. See there is some good news. The voting machine companies are suing FOX for billions for defamation (lies) and destruction of business reputation. They won’t get billions but may get enough to hurt. It looks like Biden’s stimulus plan is going forward with only small modifications in the targeting. In addition, Biden is coming out against giving DDT intelligence briefing, claiming the DDT is too unstable and erratic. I could not agree more. Poor Biden. Pompeo is miffed at the major foreign policy shifts of working with our allies as partners, not adversaries. Other than Pompeo and his ilk, Biden’s popularity is rising, even in Texas, where Biden is more popular than the governor. Oh yes, Margorie Greene has been removed from committee memberships even after a very tepid attempt at a public apology. Essentially, she said she was so sorry if she hurt anyone’s feelings. I do not accept that apology. Navalny continues to stir trouble for Putin as Putin expels EU diplomats who pushed for Navalny’s release. As it stands now, Navalny is Putin’s worst nightmare. The more Putin pushes the more protest occurs in Russia, and if he relents and doesn’t push, it will still go badly for a mafia don style state. Closer to home, unemployment is at all-time highs, especially long-term unemployment as the economy sputters close to the “Great Recession” levels. And the most exciting this is to expect more snow. As for DDT, Lock him up.

4 February: MASA plus 15 days. Hoorah. Democrats plus 11 House Republicans voted to keep Marjorie Greene from committees. That’s a huge improvement for the GOP. Perhaps there is a gradual chance that the Republicans will regain some of the integrity of the original party, or is this the end of the GOP? It’s happened before in US history, and perhaps it will again. The next election in 2022 will tell a good part of the story. Biden gave a foreign policy speech today at the State Department. The message, “we're back and ready to lead” as Biden restores ties with allies. Biden also gave the message to Russia “quit messing with us or we will fight back”. Let’s see how this goes. Biden appears to be giving some ground to the GOP, as he should and is limiting the payment of $1400 to those most in need. Of course, it is up to Congress to write the legislation, not President Biden. Sad, so sad, the government’s helicopter pad at Mar A Lago is about to be demolished and removed. Another sign of the end of a bad four years. DDT has turned down the invitation to testify in the Senate because under oath he would have to tell the truth, something he has never done. Biden has ended support for the Saudi war in Yemen using US weapons, Hopefully, the situation with the Iranian Houthis will also cool down. DDT has resigned from the actors union now that he has less need for fabricating (actually before they could remove him for 6 January). Who cares, he cried. I agree. I do not care. Lock him up!

3 February: MASA plus 14 days: The chaos and dysfunction of the previous administration is rapidly being undone with some changes still well into the future. What is impressive is that all these changes are occurring out in the open, but with little chest beating and no running down of reputations of perceived enemies. It’s so quiet that the weather has become more interesting. Outside of the administration, there is conflict playing out within the GOP with Greene and Cheney in the House. Parts of the GOP are looking to punish Cheney in her next election because she dared to vote on principle to impeach DDT while major figures, even McConnell have rallied to her defense. On the other side is the violence threatening QAnon nutcase Greene that the GOP seems to have reservations about putting into a timeout corner (remove committee assignments) until her term is up. She should have no place in government. The question is whether the Republican party will survive as a party able to govern in a democracy or will it become a minority outpost for those bent on insurrection. More arrests are being made of the January 6th insurrectionists especially among the violent “Proud Boys”. Interestingly enough, the Proud Boys originated in Canada, which has just declared them a terrorist organization. Here in the US, we have no laws on the books for dealing with domestic terrorists other than those related to firing guns, breaking windows, trespassing etc. It’s time to get serious about these extremist groups whether on the left or right. The military is undergoing a housecleaning to root out extremism in its ranks before there is real trouble. It looks like the Republicans have no intention of working with the administration on a compromise COVID relief bill. Biden is now planning to move forward with a Democrat-only bill to overcome the lack of seriousness on the part of the GOP to help less fortunate Americans. OMG, the GameStop stock is down to $92, having risen to $400 at its peak. This means that there are a lot of small investors that are hurting. Space-X has launched 60 more Starlink satellites for future internet connection. This sounds exciting except the cost to customers looks higher than current providers except in rural areas.

2 February: MASA + 13: Snowstorm is over with another smaller one predicted next week. I’m still waiting to see how Biden handles the parsimonious Republican proposal for COVID relief. Their proposal was cheap and mean, cutting out all aid to states and cities and schools along with food. The Republican proposal is not an attempt to negotiate in good faith at a compromise, but rather as a provocation for Democrats to act alone. The only way out of this mess is for the Republican Party to be destroyed at the polls in 2022 and then rebuild a conservative non-fascist party from scratch. Let the racists and hallucinators blow in the wind. The Senate Democrats are moving to put Biden’s Stimulus Plan on a fast track using the “budget reconciliation” method only requiring a majority vote. Biden is now pledging to undo the “moral shame” immigration policies of the DDT administration. The real immediate question is how is he going to handle the large groups of people (caravan) moving north toward the US border under the impression that Biden will simply let everyone in? This is soon to be a realized crisis in the making. Two FBI agents were killed and more injured when serving a warrant on a child pornography case. This should have been an avoidable tragedy. In a smart move, the Defense Secretary has purged the entire advisory boards for the Pentagon whether democrat or Republican allowing him to start fresh. It’s astoundingly quiet in the Biden administration even though lots is happening. DDT is still preparing for a Senate trial that may not occur with a new legal team that does not seem to care about the nature of the defense.

1 February 2021: MASA plus 12. It is starting to appear the Q of QAnon is now a Russian hoax. It started with 2 clowns picking up a thread on 4-chan (later 8-chan) and amplifying it to gain followers. It was one of a number of self-identified “secret agents” with self-proclaimed high-security clearance promoting conspiracy theories. This one took off because of the two clowns amplifying it for their own purposes. Now it is almost unstoppable with empty-headed people buying into preposterous fantasies. I have heard it alleged that DDT is a secret pedophile who separated families from children at the border so his family business could sell them into the sex slave trade from the basement of one of his golf course houses. How else to explain DDT’s perpetual ownership of apparently money-losing golf courses? On the government front, the Republicans are proposing a COVID relief bill prices at 1/3 the cost of Biden’s bill. It does include $1000 checks and greatly reduced unemployment insurance and hunger relief. Let’s see if the GOP can work a compromise. Polls have Biden's approval rating at 49%. This is good, but not overwhelming. The other news is that there is more snow coming, perhaps another inch. Two serious lawyers who were part of DDT’s defense team have quit and new ones hired. DDT apparently wants the lawyers to defend him by claiming he is still president since, according to DDT, he won by a landslide if not for undetected fraud. Meghan McCain wants Greene removed from any committee appointments. This would be a good thing, but Republican leaders are in the thrall of the criminal DDT fraud and primary threats. Finally, we have groundhog day, the real day not the movie. I would not want to relive this DDT era ever again.

31 January: MASA plus 11. The snowstorm turned out to be less than forecast, barely 1 inch. I listened today to Brian Deese (a Biden economic advisor and former Blackrock executive) on Meet the Press try to answer basic questions on the policy of economic aid (Answer think big and do it fast) and on his ideas about the GameStop stock market situation (duck and change the topic). Perhaps he’s really good in private in the background of the administration as an "economic gofer", but in public answering questions, a raging vacuum. Very disappointing. His critics have said that Blackrock executives “are responsible for financing environmental devastation while profiteering from Black and Indigenous communities.” Ten Republicans have now presented Biden with a smaller COVID stimulus plan, the details of which are not yet known. The big difference is a more poverty directed approach and elimination of some poverty-related items not directly associated with COVID 19. On another issue, As explained by epidemiologists today, the situation with COVID is appearing very dire indeed. The vaccine rollout has to be speeded up or the situation in the US will resemble the hospital overload in the UK. There is no one to blame for this situation in the present administration. It’s just a matter of supply and demand and a logistical distribution nightmare that has to be solved by national management. With Republicans gathering around DDT in an attempt to regain control of the Senate and House, a former Mike Pence adviser says that DDT does not care about the future of the party (only himself). Marjorie Greene questioned whether a plane really flew into the Pentagon on 9/11 (where the plane she says) and stated that President Barack Obama was secretly Muslim when she paused to offer an aside implicating another former president in a crime. “That’s another one of those Clinton murders,” Greene said, referring to John F. Kennedy Jr.’s death in a plane crash (1999) suggesting that he had been assassinated because he was a potential rival to Hillary Clinton for a New York Senate seat. Just what we need, a dangerous kook in our government. The Republicans have rewarded her with an important committee position. DDT has parted ways with some of his lawyers because of their refusal to base the defense of insurrection on the idea of a stolen election. Basically, the present GOP is divided on its fast-growing anti-democratic drift.

 

30 January: MASA plus 10. It’s a cold night tonight ahead of a promised winter storm that is supposed to start tomorrow afternoon. Nothing huge, just 4 to 6 inches. Looking at the news for tonight, it’s pretty quiet except for that QAnon-Republican representative Greene who is still spewing vitriol and nonsense. It’s amazing how quiet things are without DDT spouting off. The Republicans are still in awe of their petty god. The only thing that is going to break the cult is a strong defeat in 2022 and again in 2024. The idiots, anti-vaxers and right-wing nuts blocked the entrance to Dodger stadium and stopped an ongoing mass vaccination temporarily. And that’s about it for Saturday. There are more executive orders coming Monday to promote Biden’s goals and to undo DDT’s dumbest moves. Biden is facing a real problem at the southern border where there is a huge caravan of people attempting to enter the US under the false impression that the new President is more lenient than DDT. I suspect that Biden will not allow the crowds into the US. The size of the north moving caravan of people is huge.

29 January: MASA +9. Sanity continues. Biden is pushing hard for the third COVID stimulus plan at 1.9 billion. It will be interesting to see what path he and the Democrats take to get it to pass the Senate. Idaho is joining about 12 other states in attempting to ban abortion and get the case before the Supreme Court so that the DDT justices can overturn Roe v Wade. This country is crazy on this issue. Underneath, it is not about being pro-life, but rather as a way to control women. I know that there are sincere members of this tribe that are simply pro-life, except when it comes to executions. It looks like DDT’s return to Mar A Lago may be shortened by the agreement against a permanent residence. The Democrat threatening Marjorie Greene has been causing great unease, so much so by having Cori Bush moving her office to reduce the danger. This is the QAnon person who backed a plan to shoot democrats and still espouses crazy dangerous ideas. The vaccination effort continues with the US injecting about 1 million per day. There is a long way to go. However, Israel is showing how successful mass vaccinations (1/3 of the population) can be to protect an entire population. The EU is in a fight with the UK over the delivery of vaccines after slow-rolling the approval and deployment of vaccines. The fight is on with unkind words on both sides. The company, Johnson and Johnson, has just released its version of the single-shot vaccine that appears to be about 67% effective against being infected and about 85% effective against getting a severe disease. The supply increases. The GameStop madness has not stopped with the stock rising more today as the fight against Wall Street hedge funds. So far, the small coordinated investor is winning.

28 January. MASA+8. More of the same. The stock market recovered a little from yesterday. I skipped a day.  

27 January. MASA+7. Biden toils on with executive orders while the Republicans in the Senate are figuring out how to spell NO. All but 5 are in agreement, marching in autocratic lockstep to the beat of an insane drummer. Their heads have snapped right and are locked in place seeing the ghost of DDT and nothing of the really dire situation in front of them. The only reals solution is a mass defeat 2 years from now. Biden, today suspended oil and gas leasing on federal property and a bunch of other actions all related to climate change. One news rag put forth the nonsensical truth that if the US went to zero emissions while the rest of the world did nothing, it would make little difference, This is true. However, the point is for the US to lead and others to follow. The joint action will make a difference. It either that or death from starvation and thirst along with mass migration. Republicans are so stupid not to see the disaster they are wishing on the US and Europe caused by climate (heat, floods, drought, and fire) disasters in the rest of the world. The Department of Homeland Security is now warning of an increased threat of violent extremism, and not just from the right. DHS believes the threat of violence will persist following President Biden's inauguration. The extremists include those who opposed the presidential transition, people spurred by "grievances fueled by false narratives" and anger over COVID-19 restrictions, and police use of force. It looks like the Senate is backing away from an impeachment trial and drifting towards a censure. Weak punishment for a criminal we had as President. A “rich” news note. It turns out that the leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, was an FBI informant. In the days ahead, it will make an interesting story, especially if ET still is an informer. What is it with Republican legislators? Wisconsin just repealed the emergency mask mandate. Looks like natural selection is alive and well. Mike Pence is homeless (for now) and is “couch surfing” with friends afraid to buy property anywhere because of issues with personal safety. Hey, why not fly south and stay with DDT.

26 January: MASA plus 6. It’s getting boring until it’s not in a few days. Republicans are showing they are not serious about governing a democracy but yearn for a dictator. They almost had one. Perhaps they view a DDT-like dictator as a way for them to get filthy rich and have special privileges. I did not know that the capital police have a $500 million budget. For that kind of money, there is no excuse for lack of preparedness other than sheer inertia. One hopes they learn from this experience and get rid of the asleep management. Biden has had his first conversation with Putin and raised the Navalny issue. Putin’s reply, “What issue?” Biden also raised the idea of extending the expiring START treaty limiting nuclear weapons for another 5 years, Ukraine sovereignty, and the Solar Winds hack. I’m glad the Biden has not gone the foolish route of a useless “reset” with Putin. The COVID situation is becoming more dire every day. With vaccine shortages, the disease keeps spreading and ominously mutating. The only way to stop ever more deadly mutations is to eliminate the virus almost entirely in the US and the rest of the world. Mitch McConnell has relented on the need for Democrats to forswear eliminating the filibuster rule. Now let's see if the Republicans can do something other than just say NO. OMG. There is now a MAGA Patriot Party headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. This should destroy the Republican Party if it takes hold. Meanwhile, the Oregon GOP has called the capital insurrection a fake (False Flag) operation to discredit the GOP and silence DDT supporters. The Oregon fools will be sure candidates to join the MAGA Patriot Party at the head of the line.

25 January: MASA plus 5 days. Biden is undoing a lot of mischief caused by DDT including a nasty bit of revenge on the whole US. DDT in his last two days in office removed the travel bans protecting the US from COVID, especially the South African ban. Biden has reinstated them quickly. There are nasty swear words to describe a vicious person like DDT. You can think of them yourself. Today the impeachment papers arrived from the House to the Senate. The case is so clear, but I am afraid that the Republicans will be spineless as usual, fearing that DDT’s base will abandon them. For the good of the country, they should make a possible sacrifice of a tough primary fight. It’s time for DDT to go down, both in the Senate and in the Courts. I listened to the reading of the impeachment charges and do not see how anyone who directly witnessed the mayhem caused by DDT’s encouraging insurrection could vote to protect that criminal. Biden, meanwhile, is mostly staying out of the fray and concentrating on getting this country going and sane again. There are still the nutcases out there believing the QAnon conspiracy ideas and the misguided idea that the election was stolen. For those people, there is little hope and much fear from the rest of us about the damage they might do to other people and our democracy. It’s hard to believe the DDT so mismanaged the COVID vaccine problem that no one knows how much supply there is and where it is. In a few weeks, the new administration will know and take action. Biden has already started corrective action to increase production and get more than 100 million vaccinated during his first 3 months. Hey, Janet Yellen got confirmed as Treasury Secretary as did the Secretary of Defense. More to come, and I hope speedily. There’s a lot of work to do. California is in its silly season again with an attempted recall of its Governor Newsome. Newsome has been doing his best to moderate a disaster with CV-19, which makes him a bit unpopular with certain folks who don’t give a damn about anyone else. Even with the medical crises, LA County is going to allow outdoor dining after the stay at home order is lifted. Good luck California. Back in the recent past, apparently, the Justice Department was pushed to overturn the election and offered some cooperation. This is now being investigated. Time to clean house. Because of losing to Biden, Republican state legislators are advancing a rush of new bills aimed at limiting voting access, and especially access to voting by mail. It’s the only way they have to win elections, namely prevent people from voting. By the way, we now have a known case of the Brazilian variety of CV-19, which is more contagious, more deadly, and vaccine-resistant. The vaccine companies are working to overcome this deficiency. Let’s hope.

24 January: MASA+4. Ok Ok: TB beats GB 31 to 26. With DDT gone, even football makes more noise than the president. It’s such a relief. Then there is the brewing circus of DDT’s or XPT's impeachment trial in the Senate. More and more GOP senators are getting nervous about such a trial and will probably oppose the trial. DDT and his fake-Patriot party are also causing some angst that Republicans on DDT’s enemies list may be challenged in primaries from the even further right than they are. Yes, there is a further right of destructive nut bags (think QAnon, White Supremacists, and neo-Nazis). The South African variant of the virus has become sufficiently worrisome that Biden has banned travel for South Africa. This new variant seems to be able to evade the immune system and probably the current vaccines. COVID vaccine supplies are running out due to the exquisite forward planning of DDT. The new head of the FDA says that she has no idea about the nation's supply of CV-19 vaccine based on her transition non-briefings. In major cities, vaccination programs are grinding to a halt. This means that the population will not be protected from the mass spreading of CV-19 and that the necessary second shots may not be available either. If you get a chance, read the article by George Conway in the Washington Post on the need to hold DDT accountable for his actions during his 4 years as president. Putin is angry at the US for backing Navalny and the riots following his jailing and the exposure of Putin’s corruption. All in all, aside from football, it has been a quiet day. Oh yeah, I forgot the spine-tingling news that Biden was spotted at church.

23 January: MASA plus 3 days. With DDT is never stops. The incompetent fool managed in his last days as PINO (Pence was doing his real job) to start multiple plots to overthrow the election. The insurrection we all know about, but the latest revelation shows the existence of a new plot to oust the acting attorney general, Jeffry Rosen, and replace him with a loyalist who might overturn the Georgia election results based on nonexistent fraud reports. Schumer is now calling for a DOJ watchdog probe of the alleged DDT effort. Asked about the ex-president’s club, DDT demurred saying that he probably would not be accepted, but that the feeling was mutual. Biden is quietly at work being a real leader enhancing the food stamp program to give people enough to eat in a country overflowing with food, signing executive orders to give stimulus checks to families in need, and raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour to give basic workers enough money to be able to live very modestly. Russia is now seeing massive riots related to their arresting Putin critic Navalny after he returned to Russia. It’s mostly young people fed up with living in a crushing corrupt society. Navalny’s latest salvo about a hugely expensive palace built for Putin as part of his plundering public funds has triggered the riots. More arrests during the last week of insurrectionists including one who also tweeted “assassinate AOC”. He looks like he will be in for some free housing and food. So it goes on day 3.

22 January: MASA+2. It feels like we have a president who is trying to guide the country instead of looking for applause. He’s gotten more done in two days to improve things for everyone than XPT did in 4 years. It looks like XPT’s impeachment trial will be on 8 February, which gives XPT time to fabricate a defense and time for the Senate to work on Biden’s cabinet appointments. This compromise between speed and efficiency is good for everyone. Everyone except DDT. He’s now threatening to spin off a 3rd party composed of his rabid followers plus QAnon nut bags. This would temporarily make a mess of the Republican party as a political force until real conservatives organized themselves and marginalized the far right. DDT can have the crazies, the neo-Nazis, and the QAnon people. It might take two election cycles, but the DDT party will fade away. The best outcome is a Senate conviction for DDT and a vote preventing him from ever holding federal political office. The way Biden is going, if he runs again, he will win again. Current Republicans are worried, as they should be. Biden has issued orders to increase food stamps in a time when people are going hungry. This shifts a lot of people back into grocery stores that are more easily able to handle large numbers compared to the operating charities. The Biden 100-day deportation freeze has some right-wing people upset to the point where a Texas AG is suing the Biden administration to block the freeze. If he is suing, then Biden must be doing it right. Maryland’s idiot representative Andy Harris was caught trying to bring a loaded concealed pistol onto the House floor in violation of House rules. Fortunately, he was caught. Biden has repealed DDT’s diet coke button in the oval office. DDT must have been too lazy to get up and walk to the refrigerator. Canada is mad at the US for canceling the Keystone pipeline. I do not blame them since they invested a lot of money almost building the pipeline. However, it is an unnecessary pipeline that could pose an environmental hazard.

21 January: MASA+1: So quiet yet so frenetic. Biden is blasting off the start line revoking many of the XpT’s more damaging executive orders. There are so many to examine and perhaps change that Biden will be kept busy for quite a while. Then there is the COVID problem that Biden’s team has finally developed the start of a National plan. Now masks are required in transport (trains, planes, and busses) and on federal property. A closely kept secret of DDT was that there was no plan aside from letting the States do their own thing. Biden is speeding up production and offers of help to set up vaccination sites with more to come. Republicans are pushing back on pandemic relief, unemployment insurance, school reopening, etc. claiming that the relief is not sufficiently targeted. There is going to be a problem if Republicans resist too hard and refuse to pass or modify Biden’s proposed legislation to help people in need. The problem will be the removal of the filibuster to permit passage of legislation by a simple majority. There are many reasons to keep the current rules to prevent tyranny of the majority, but keeping it presumes the political parties work together at compromise. We are in a situation where the problems are cause for worry and excitement, but the administration is not. How boring until the Senate starts the trial of good old DDT.

20 January at 12:20 pm. Biden has been sworn in as President and gave a speech that finally sounds like the leader this nation needs. I was moved to emotional tears at the turning of a dark page of the past 4 years into ones of hope. I witnessed the leaving of the former president with a sigh of relief in the desire that I can forget his very existence as time passes. The next weeks and months present an opportunity to mend our relations with our friends throughout the world and to prevent those opposed to freedom and democracy from destroying a world with individual freedom. I am also pleased that the emphasis will be on helping those in need in the time of a pandemic and later after we come out of the shadow of COVID-19. I am pleased that we have a more representative administration with Kamala Harris as vice-president and a multi-racial group of people that are clearly highly qualified. There is hope.

Addendum January 20, 7:00 pm. As I said earlier, the seeds of hope have been planted. There were virtually no protests, either in DC or at the state capitals. Even some of the Republicans so opposed to acknowledging the veracity of the election are now talking cooperation. The tone of the newscasts is suddenly changed from disbelief to reporting positive developments. What is clear is that the amount of TV watching in the White House will be greatly reduced as will the amount of golf being played instead of working. Biden has already signed 17 executive orders reversing some of the more odious orders from the ex-President (hereafter known as X-PT) and adding a mask mandate for Federal property. Were back in WHO, the Paris Climate Accord, holding off on evictions, holding off on student loans, reverses environmental destruction of public lands, restoring DACA, and stopped the Wall. Not bad for the first day’s work. The basic takeaway from today is that Democracy has prevailed over XPT. Three new Senators have been sworn in shifting control to the Democrats and the ever-ambitious Schumer. XPT managed to issue 144 last-minute pardons. I haven’t reviewed the list yet but it does have pardons for his buddies, among then Bannon and one of his fundraising cronies, Elliott Broidy, Kwame Kilpatrick, the former mayor of Detroit who was serving a 28-year prison term on corruption charges, Arizona representative Rick Renzi, who was convicted in 2013 on corruption, money laundering and other charges, and so on for a list of really undeserving criminals. I’m listening to the first press conference and am finding it painful without lies and misinformation. I can listen and have to pay attention to what is being said since most of the information is accurate and important. Before, I used to get more information on reality from Doonesbury. So many problems for a hard-working Biden to solve, not the least addressing inequality.

19 January: MASA: Only ½ day left and then DDT is unemployed. I wonder if he will apply for unemployment insurance. Sir, have you looked for another job in the past 24 hours? No? Too bad. Come back tomorrow and remember to wear a mask this time. Of course, DDT can claim that he will really be busy fending off multiple personal lawsuits and a few criminal ones. At this point, he can be forced to testify under oath. Telling the truth under the threat of perjury will be painful for DDT. I'm looking forward to his discomfort and the possibility of free housing, food, and stylish orange clothing. All the celebrities performing for Joe are really getting DDT mad. That’s it, no more gigs at DDT’s clubs. Let’s hope that tomorrow's inauguration goes smoothly. The alternative will really work to destroy our democracy. Several National Guard soldiers guarding the inauguration have been dismissed because of their association with extreme right-wing groups. The arrests from the insurrection attempts continue today and will continue well into the future. The big question is whether DDT will be held accountable for his incitement of violence and insurrection. It will be interesting to see how Biden handles the pent-up immigration problem. He has already announced an 8-year path to citizenship for millions of undocumented people. Hurry if you want a pillow that is sharply sloped to the right. Kohls, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Wayfair are now only selling level sleeping pillows that keep you well centered and not those sloped ones offered by that company “MyPillow”. As the CEO says of Biden, “not my President”, I say, “not my pillow”. McConnell has found political religion as he denounces DDT for his role in inciting the riot and encouraging the trashing of the Capital building. Pence has abandoned DDT by not seeing DDT off from Andrews and instead of seeing Biden in as president. Right now, we are waiting on DDT’s last pardon list. Time is running out. One should note that Pompeo is setting himself up for corralling DDT’s rabid base in a run for the 2024 presidency. Pompeo is dangerous as he has demonstrated as a ruthless Secretary of State while keeping DDT’s butt clearly in sight. So far all of the potential 2024 Republican candidates are repulsive, running from Pompeo to Cruz. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. Have a good one-way flight. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 day of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

18 January: OMG MASA MASA begins in just 2 days at noon on Wednesday east coast time in the US. By that time DDT will be airborne on Airforce 1 and, on his way to grace the state of Florida with his unseemly presence. His plans to stay at this resort may be in jeopardy because of an easement contract he signed to make the property commercial. We’ll see how the locals take to his living in Mar a Lago. Melania has given us a farewell message of love and an end to hatred, plus a wish for world peace. The vacuum that resides between her ears is fearsome to behold. But remember, she’s a gold medal winner and she always goes for the gold. There are 100 pardons in the wind scheduled for Tuesday, and who knows, perhaps mass pardons for everyone for anything. I need one of those. I cheated in bocks in kindergarten (I built the castle shown in a picture on the block box, so plagiarism) and took a quarter from my father’s dresser to buy candy. I need the pardon to clear my otherwise crime-free life. I’m sure there are other crimes, but these two stand out. It’s clear, his criminal friends and family need these pardons much more than I do. It’s sad, but the military and FBI are vetting soldiers stationed at the inaugural to make sure that there are not some fanatical soldier-terrorists in their midst. This would be no joke. Personally, I would remove all rifles, automatic and otherwise, and just leave them with short-range pistols. The last thing this country needs is an assentation attempt on Biden’s life, especially after the attempted botched insurrection. Speaking of the attempted insurrection, lots of participants are being rounded up and charged along with the possibility of well-known Republican supporters who also appear to have bankrolled the insurrection. The woman who stole Nancy Pelosi’s laptop and tried to sell it (to the Russians?) is very disappointed. There was nothing on it of prurient interest. So sad, no scandal. Be it noted for the record, Ivanka is busy at rebranding herself after her father’s debacle as president. One possible plan is to blame everything on Hillary (for losing in 2016). Rumor has it that DDT is lifting travel restrictions on Europe, Brazil, and the UK, all hotbeds of CV-19 just in time for the Biden administration takeover. Rumor also has it that Biden is having none of this nonsense and will reinstate the bans immediately. We have not passed the 400,000-death mark from CV-19, and that is just the official number of confirmed cases. There are a lot more cases where people died of CV-19 without hospital medical care. DDT has stuck two DDT loyalists in NSA leadership positions much to the consternation of Democrats and to intelligence specialists afraid of politicizing the intelligence findings needed to safely protect our country. Hopefully, the characters can be removed or sidelined before real harm occurs. I am sure there are mor undiscovered horrors lurking in the background that will come out as time goes on after Wednesday. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 days of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

17 January: MASA MASA MASA. Only 3 more days of insanity to go. Headline news: Looks like Rudy G is going to defend DDT in the Senate impeachment trial. There could not be a better choice than to have one insane person defend another insane person. The defense should be really funny. Late-night TV hosts will have a field day. With all the force displayed at the capitals, there is almost no indication of mass rallies. There are armed demonstrators at the Ohio statehouse. Monday will be the big test day. Curious, GOP Senator Ben Sasse is warning that QAnon is destroying the Republican Party from within. There are some protests starting at state capitals, but they are small and peaceful. I hope that people do not relax since these dopes are quite capable of causing major trouble when no one is looking. It’s amazing that DDT’s approval ratings (43%) are relatively unchanged after the January 6th riots. The FBI is arresting people as fast as they can identify them including members of DDT’s 2020 campaign and possibly some Republican members of the House for helping the rioters find their way inside the capital building. Kellyanne Conway’s mouth is still working as incoherently shown on the Bill Maher show last night. Biden has revealed a 10-day timetable for reversing DDT’s worst executive orders. This is the start of a long process to recover the country from the tyrannical pouts of an evil clown. Oh yes, Betty White is 99. Happy Birthday. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more week of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

16 January: MASA now at warp speed; 4 days to go: Fill that “Mayflower Van” but leave the silverware and china. Take a couple of souvenir towels and a roll of White House toilet paper to remind yourself of the good old power days when a flush was on the government’s dime. It’s been quiet for a DDT administration except for the pitter-patter of little rat feet leaving the White House. Abandon ship all ye creatures large and small. Into the elements, free at last from the bonds of endless lies and deception. Join the unemployable and hope for Biden’s unemployment insurance plan to keep you afloat among all the flotsam and jetsam emanating from the DDT administration. A good house cleaning and the White House will cease to have such a rancid odor. Gone Donald, gone Ivanka, gone the 2 brats, gone Jared, and best of all gone Miller, the big stink is gone. A little air freshener and life should improve. Senate Republicans are thinking of banning DDT from ever holding federal office again. This would be a good thing that would permit the Republicans to reinvent themselves as a party capable of governing for the good of the nation, a party of Lincoln not DDT. Biden has his work cut out for himself. Not only must he rescind as many of DDT’s presidential edict but must also push his own positive policy to get this country going again. Biden will be back to the Paris Climate accords, back to the limits on Iran’s nuclear program, reversing travel bans on innocent people who happen to have a skin color darker than the bleached out DDT, expanding the CV-19 testing, halting evictions and foreclosures (will Biden also help the property owners), student loan relief, and working on climate change. The keyword here is working to be president, not hanging out, not watching Fox News. Let’s see that pardon list. The last outrage. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more week of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

15 January: MASA please. 5 days to go. YAY! DDT is making a run for the hills on Wednesday morning just before the inauguration. He’ll still be president at that moment (before noon) but will fly into ignominy and exile in Florida if they will have him. The town has threatened to sue if he tries to take up residence at Marred Largo (sp on purpose), since he signed an agreement to never do that. Of course, an agreement with DDT is not worth the paper it is written on unless you use toilet paper and are willing to go to court. He’s going to hold a competing departure ceremony at Andrews Airforce Base that will be much better than Nixon’s departure in a helicopter from the White House lawn. The big question in the next 5 days is what the pardon list is going to look like. His family, of course, and then who else? Rudi G. may have blown it and will not be on the list. One thing is true, if pardoned, they cannot refuse to testify on grounds of self-incrimination (good old 5th amendment). If congress and prosecutors take advantage of this, we may learn the details of the betrayal of the US during the past 4 years. DDT has left a legacy to Biden that will be hard to fix. For example, DDT has essentially abandoned the Afghans to the Taliban who feel they have won the conflict. If left to stand, I pity the people living there, especially the women. Biden has a workable plan for the distribution of the vaccine only to discover that the vaunted supply that the government has been holding back for a second shot, does not exist. It will not be until March that a real rollout will occur. The next days will be fraught with danger. DDT is almost gone but his legacy may still darken. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

14 January MASA coming to a presidency near you. 6 days to go. OK DDT is impeached and may go to trial in the Senate after Biden takes office. If the outcome is being banned from public office, then it would be a good thing. The criminal DDT must fade from public life and influence. DDT has left minefields for Biden to traverse, not the least are relations with China and Taiwan. Certain things about the DDT administration are indelible images of the insurrection in the capital and separated children in cages on our southern border. Some of these children were “lost” by DHS and never returned to their parents. Unconscionable. Also, festering is an assault on the public environment with oil leases, reduction in protected areas, reductions in worker protections, a messed-up post office (no joy in DeJoy), and a total mishandling of the COVID crises. For all these offensive actions DDT takes no responsibility but instead points his small fingers at others. At least the presidency will be free from outright lies, total ignoring of facts, and narcissism. The arrests over the insurrection continue with the arrests of the person who threw a fire extinguisher at a police officer’s head and a person carrying a Confederate flag in the Capital. There will be hundreds by the time this is done. According to a poll, most Republicans believe that the invisible Antifa caused all of the violence in the Capital even though there is zero evidence of any left-wing activists near the Capital. The final blow will be if it can be proved that some House members guided the attackers through the House in order for them to familiarize themselves with the layout. If proved, they should be expelled and tried for abetting insurrection. And then there is "POOPGATE". Ivanka and Jared refused to let the secret service agents protecting them use one of many bathrooms in their house. So, they were using the bathroom in Obama's house next door until they got kicked out for making a mess. Now the government pays $3000 per month to rent a bathroom in a 1 bedroom apartment. The whole family is rotten to the core.  Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

13 January: MASA – closer. 7 days left to go. So close and so impeached is DDT. Twice is a record, bigger and better than DDT’s unfinished wall. Impeached for inciting insurrection. His place on history is evermore. Will the Senate act? Probably not with McConnell in charge even though it is clear that there is little love lost between McConnel and the squirrely DDT. DDT’s approval rating is the lowest ever. He is being abandoned by social media, cabinet members, some of his Republican allies in the House and Senate and rejected by the football coach Bill Belichick who refused the Freedom Medal from DDT. It's a sad ending for a really sad and dangerous man. Arrests continue apace of the miscreants that attacked the capital. The list of people caught up in DDT’s cult is amazing including an Olympic swimmer, some political figures, and a sort of deluded general mob spouting inflammatory nonsense mirroring QAnon. Whoever is doing Qanon must be laughing his, or their heads off. The level of absurdity about child molesters, kidnappers, and other nonsense is hard for me to believe that others take QAnon seriously. Probably Russians. CV-19 keeps spreading with the uncoordinated vaccine rollout moving so slowly. Biden plans a new stimulus plan if there can be bipartisan support. The FBI has picked up on a man loading ammo to take from Concord to DC for an attack on the inauguration day, plus there are alarming indications of planned armed protests in all 50 states. This time the National Guard is fully out, even sleeping on the floor of the capital. Beware the 17th to 20th of January, all hell could break loose. The overly ambitious Senator, Jeff Hawley, thinking to ride the coattails of DDT and his backers to the presidency in 2024. Now he is the butt of the Lincoln Project as political donors in Missouri close the spigot on campaign contributions. Given their behavior post insurrection attempt, the Republican party should be disbanded and a new party formed with people prepared to govern with conservative principles in the interests of the United States and not DDT and QAnon. Interesting. It looks like the Chinese vaccine has only about 50% effectiveness based on data compiled in Brazil. This is far different than the 90+ effectiveness of the US and European versions. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

12 January: MASA: Only 8 more days of this idiot to go. The “fun” has begun. Impeachment looms as does a possible attack from the extreme right-wing nut jobs. Defections are starting among Republicans. Banks are no longer willing to work with DDT, most significantly Deutsche Bank has cut its commercial ties with DDT. This means Russian money will no longer flow easily to DDT. Corporations are pulling back from supporting Republicans with campaign contributions. How interesting. There is a 14th amendment to the constitution adopted after the civil war to allow the confederate states back into the union. Part of the amendment states that individuals committing insurrection may be removed from being a member of congress or president. Apparently, there are some in congress starting to invoke the 14th. The Joint Chiefs have property reminded the troops to follow and defend the constitution. The amazing thing is that evangelicals are still supporting DDT. This is like making a deal with the devil for some momentary gain but leading to ultimate disaster. Basically, evangelicals are behaving like criminals, out for their own narrow self-interest in the short term willing to stomach anything, even insurrection. DDT managed to visit the Texas border to take a last peek at his unfinished wall and proclaim that the impeachment is a witch hunt. In this, he is right. It is a witch hunt, and we have found the witch DDT. Time to perform a political exorcism. Even Mitch McConnell now thinks it is time to move against a wounded DDT. If really true, it may spell the end of DDT as president, and the end of DDT as a wealthy ex-president. He has amazing debts coming due and no way to borrow the money to roll over the debt. It is sad, but it will be an interesting 8 days ahead. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

11 January: MASA closer and closer. 9 days to go. The silence is deafening now that Twitter and Parler and Facebook are off DDT’s menu. He has to resort to actual speeches in front of reporters. Whoa! There might be questions. The Supreme Court has rejected DDT’s plea for a fast track consideration of election lawsuits. They may not get to these until the Spring at the earliest and no judgment until the Autumn. With that kind of delay, I cannot imagine them undoing any part of the election. There is a move on to get the oldest member of the Supreme Court to retire early in Biden’s term so that a moderate Justice can be appointed. Democrats in the House have introduced an impeachment article. It almost certainly will pass and then go on to the Senate where things will get interesting. I know this will interfere with Biden’s first 100 days, but I think in a case of insurrection and incitement to violence it is important for a suitable punishment to be handed to DDT and the most virulent of his sycophants. The secretary of Homeland Security, Wolfe, has quit. He’s the 3rd cabinet member to quit over DDT’s behavior last week. Pence and DDT spoke today for the first time since the attempted insurrection. They had a pat yourself on the back conversation for 4 years of destroying America. Now there is a threat to Biden’s inauguration, which if it occurs will be a blow to our ideas of democracy and living in a Republic. Ben Franklin’s admonition that “yes you are living in a Republic, if you can keep it” is prescient. Let’s hope this is not the case. We let a madman in as President and have reaped the whirlwind (sorry, mixed metaphor). Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

10 January: MASA. 10 days to go. What mischief can DDT cause in the short remaining time? In principle, not much. Perhaps he can remove the B-key from all the keyboards, change the locks on office doors and forget to give Joe the new keys, clog the plumbing in all the toilets, short sheet the bed linens in the upstairs residence, snip all the phone lines, replace George Washington pictures with those of DDT, put itching powder in the oval office, put glue in the desk drawer locks, order hamburgers on the morning of Jan 20, leave FOX news reruns playing on the TV, and leave the front door open when he leaves. I’m just suggesting these things to give DDT something to do on the long lonely 10 days ahead of him. People are questioning the lack of upholding the oaths of office (defend the constitution and all that other hooey) by encouraging DDT in his quest to overturn the election. They should probably be kicked out of congress for dereliction of duty and failure to uphold the constitution. If only. A quote for AP, “As some Republicans in Congress continued to back President Donald Trump’s doomed effort to overturn the election, critics — including President-elect Joe Biden— alleged that they had violated their oaths and instead pledged allegiance to Trump.” More and more of DDT’s former backers and enablers are turning their back on him in the vain hope of avoiding voter retribution in 2 years. Good luck. Memories are short, but not that short this time. DDT has gone almost silent since Twitter and Facebook banned him and now Parler is off the air too. The silence is deafening and must be very painful to DDT. Suddenly no one is listening to his crazy rants. Arnold Schwarzenegger blasted DDT as 'the worst president ever' in a powerful video rebuke. Plus as the Terminator, Arnold will personally cheer his termination, start Austrian accent, “You won’t be back”. The young ambitious no-principles Senator Hawley has shot himself in his future political career along with Ted Cruz. Both are zombies now, still walking, but politically gone. DDT has announced that he will not attend Biden's inauguration on the 20th. Is this a case of hurt feelings or the start of something more sinister? Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

9 January: MASA is starting now. 11 Days to go. The roundup has started of many of the miscreants that attacked the capital. Fortunately, many were as stupid as they looked, self-identifying as they committed a major crime. The arrests have taken place all over the country with many “surprised” that they have been caught. More and more Republicans are saying that they are willing to impeach DDT. McConnell has pulled an interesting maneuver in the Senate claiming that he cannot initiate Senate proceedings until the 19th. This means that the actual trial in the Senate would not take place until Biden is president and Schumer is the majority leader. This is a cynical but clever option. Twitter for DDT is gone forever. His fans are also ditching Twitter by the thousands. Good riddance. DDT compounded his crime by pressuring Georgia officials by also pressuring the Georgia Attorney General to “find” extra votes. Good news, Rudi G. may wind up being disbarred for his awful “Trial by Combat” speech just before the DC mob-riot. He’s been a font of misinformation and conspiracy theories for the past 4 years and needs to be put out to pasture or jail. Apple and Amazon have suspended the scurrilous Parler website, the home of neo-Nazis and pro-DDT nut jobs. There are now calls for Hawley and Cruz to resign from the Senate or be expelled. Either way would be a good result for America. On the CV-19 front, Biden is calling for wide distribution of vaccines by exploiting the reserves needed for the second shot. To me, this is a major mistake (Fauci agrees) that the UK is pursuing without medical evidence. I hope Biden’s advisors change his mind. Apparently, the one thing that strikes fear into DDT’s little brain is the prospect of winding up in jail. He should be proud, he earned it. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

8 January: MASA….really? Only 12 days to go. I heard a silly thing today. DDT finally kept his main promise. I am astounded. He finally did something to Make America Great Again. What could that be you ask? Well, DDT cost the Republicans the presidency and both the Senate and the House. What more could a grateful country ask for. What more you ask? Well, make sure that the Mayflower van shows up on the 20th promptly. A grateful country will breathe a sigh of relief and applaud a smooth move. After that, you can answer for the attempted insurrection. The good thing is that it is almost certain that DDT’s 2024 chances are zero. The incompetent churl has done it again, namely, LOSE big time. He’s personally bankrupt. Right now, the search is on for as many of the mob that broke into the capital building as well as looking for the higher-level instigators. In the next few days, the news will get interesting. Pelosi is meeting with House Democrats to draw up articles of impeachment since Pence is refusing to talk about using the 25th amendment. The good news is that DDT will skip the Biden swearing-in ceremony and either play golf or make a run for another country. Pelosi has a conversation with the military to make sure that DDT does not try to start a war or use nuclear weapons. The man is crazy and cannot be trusted; he’s like a cornered rat, dangerous. He’s especially dangerous now that his cabinet officers are resigning, even Betsy DeVos has suddenly found principles. Once again, DDT policies are blocked by the courts. This time it is his ruling almost banning asylum claims. The funniest claim by the DDT instigated rioters was that the damage to the capitol building was caused by “antifa” and not by peaceful DDT supporters. Try not to laugh. So sad. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

7 January: MASA if only. 13 long days to go. The big question on the table is will congress impeach DDT or will the 25th amendment be used or will the clock simply run out in 13 days. Either way, we will be rid of the criminal president who ordered an insurrection on 6 January. Is there anything the Justice Department can do after DDT is no longer president? It is not clear at all if there is an avenue to hold DDT accountable. Right now, there is a lot of speculation and little else. The good news is that congress completed the count of electoral college votes and Biden is now officially the president-elect. In 13 days the government will change dramatically in both our foreign relations and domestically. The biggest change will be the absence of falsehoods. Once again, the president’s word will be trusted. Merrick Garland has been nominated by Biden to the Attorney General almost as a payback to McConnell’s refusal to let the Senate consider him for the Supreme Court at the end of the Obama administration. At least one federal prosecutor has not ruled out charging DDT for inciting the riot in Washington DC. Apparently, DDT is preparing a pardon book for his family and close associates, and perhaps, even himself. The last item would be novel and be certain to be challenged in court. YAY. DDT is banned from Facebook for inciting violence and as a champion liar. The headline in Vanity Fair, “THE STINK OF HIS FAMILY IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OFF”: JARED AND IVANKA’S FINAL CHAPTER IN WASHINGTON DEMOLISHED THEIR FUTURE.” Apparently, Ivanka and Jared are alleged to be up to their necks in the insurrection or acts of domestic terrorism. Recent scientific results show that the earth is spinning faster than ever, which makes the days shorter. This is accompanied by people’s heads spinning causing political nausea. DDT is trying one more gambit to stay in power. He’s changing his name to Joe Biden ( a joke told to me by my son). Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

6 January: MASA? 14 days to go. Today was incredible. First, the good news: both Warnock and Ossoff won, which gives Democrats control of the Senate and demotes McConnell to a secondary role. Second, the abominable news: DDT’s violent adherents stormed the capital when the House and Senate were in session to formally count electoral college votes. It was an attempted insurrection. They drove the session out of functioning with the congressmen brought to a secure area. As of this writing, with the presence of police and national guard, the congress is about to resume and finish the formal vote count. Before the mayhem, Senator Ted Cruz gave a speech that should doom his further political career for a 2024 run for President. It was an appeal for mob rule and dictatorship. He was not the only one, but the most prominent. Windows were broken, papers were stolen from offices, Pelosi’s office was trashed, one civilian was killed, but the electoral college vote papers were saved. This is a day that will go down in infamy in American political history. What of DDT. Before and during the mayhem, DDT gave speeches that inflamed his rabid followers, and an act of sedition. There is a movement to quickly impeach DDT again. I hope it goes forward and even results in a conviction in the Senate. The successful impeachment and conviction would bar DDT from political life permanently. Vice President Pence gave a speech that was a decent appeal to civility and the constitution. He said his duty is to count the votes as presented and will not violate the constitution. Good for him. As I am writing McConnell is speaking in defiance of the mob, calling it an insurrection, and calling for an acceptance of the popular will of the people and the functioning of the constitution. Schumer just gave a speech looking forward, but condemning the rioters as thugs and insurrectionists that will be punished to the full extent of the law. There have been a number of speeches, mostly nice but not memorable. That is, until Romney spoke and gave a really tough speech basically saying that we owe the country the truth and that DDT is being deplorable. As always DDT is going down screaming at Pence and other republicans threatening primary opposition to his “traitors”. Twitter, DDT’s favorite way to communicate, has suspended his account pending the removal of scurrilous tweets and a video egging on the Washington rioters. Now we have to remove DDT from public life as an insane traitor to our country, having caused a day of infamy. He needs to retire in shame and perhaps in jail for his criminal activities. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

5 January: MASA not yet. 15 days to go. Tomorrow is a big day with the counting of votes in today’s Georgia senate elections. One can hope that Republicans listened to DDT and stayed home in droves. The winter weather may have helped as well favoring the mail-in ballots over those voting in person on a cold miserable day. The Republican party is now at war with itself since certain more rational people have split off from the bozo wing (led now by Ted Cruz). We need a 3rd party desperately so that these wing-nuts can gather and talk to themselves. The lawyer who guided DDT during the phone call has been pushed out of her law firm but was allowed to resign to save face. US intelligence agencies are now formally blaming Russia for the massive Solar Winds hack. Tomorrow we have Pence presiding over a raucous Senate where Republicans will try to overturn the vote of the people during the ceremonial count or electoral college votes. At the same time, anti-democratic fanatics are protesting in DC with police and the National Guard working to prevent violence or arrest those that manage to be violent. CV-19 is surging especially in California. This is before the very contagious version originating in the UK starts to really spread here. The prediction, if it does spread, is that the load on hospitals will be overwhelming even compared to the overcrowding now. And then there is the South African variant that seems to be resistant to the vaccine. And you thought DDT was bad. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye loser Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

4 January MASA: Tick tock….16 days to go. Tomorrow is the big election in Georgia. One can only hope the Democrats win both seats. Without that, the next two years of Biden’s presidency will be an exercise in obstruction. Hopefully, we will now the outcome for sure tomorrow night or the latest on the 6th. The leader of the Proud Boys has been arrested for destroying Church property. Let’s hope there is little or no violence in DC in the coming days from those fugitives from reality. The pace of vaccinations is woefully lagging from a lack of federal coordination and state by state lack of preparedness. It is startling how little planning has gone into administering the vaccine at any level. Of course, part of the problem is the lack of funding without federal help. Thanks to you, Republicans, especially DDT. It looks like Assange is going to escape being tried in the US. A British judge has ruled that Assange is too mentally unstable to stand a US jail and trial and might commit suicide. Interesting. Republicans in the House claimed that it is their first amendment right to disseminate false news including deep fake news (doctored fake video). This came as a response to Democrats trying to tighten the rules in disseminating false information. There is no shame in the Republican party. Humpty Trumpty has a thin shell, telling everyone to go to hell. Humpty Trumpty is sitting on a wall. Humpty Trumpty is about to take a great fall. All the Senate and House Republicans, cannot put Humpty Trumpty back together again. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

 

3 January: MASA getting ever closer. Only 17 days to go. Hard to believe but there is an hour long phone call between DDT and Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger trying and threatening him to change the vote count. DDT even threatened jail time for Brad R. It this is not a crime; it should be a crime. Republicans should turn on this criminal president if they have any integrity themselves. Pelosi is back as Speaker of the House, which is a good thing. She has done a really good job these past 4 years and probably will do so during the next 4. She’s 80 years old now, so we will get new leadership before long. Let’s hope whoever it is, is as good as Nancy. We have over 350,000 confirmed dead from CV-19 and probably more from uncounted victims. The big day is coming up when Congress counts the electoral college votes and creeps like Cruz try to take advantage of the situation to attract attention to themselves. Then comes Jan 6 when we will know about Georgia and control of the Senate. Finally comes moving day on the 20th. DDT will move and I will be moved by him leaving the White House. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

2 January: MASA looms: Or at least we hope it looms on the 20th. Only 18 days to go. DDT is encouraging the white racist misogynist group, The Proud Boys PB, to riot in DC to provoke violence. He may be planning to invoke martial law, the provisions of which have no end date. This could be his ultimate plan to seize the presidency. So far, eleven GOP Senators led by Ted Cruz are planning to protest the vote for certification. Teddy-boy knows the real rules but is doing this for the GOP base of wing-nuts in 2024. It will be a circus in 2024 in the Republican primaries. CV-19 is still spreading faster and faster with general availability of the vaccine months away. A Texas judge has dismissed Gohmert’s lawsuit against Pence after which Gohmert has called for violence. Nice guy (NOT). I do not know what is going to happen in the streets on the day of certification, but if it is bad, those PB characters are not going to like the end result nor will most other people. Destroying our democracy is what lets those groups and other groups to exist to protest. Try this in a dictatorship and you will not like the outcome. More cases of the new CV-19 have been found in the US, which means that the spread of the virus could accelerate as will the death toll. Not much else is happening of real interest today, but the next 18 days will be anything but boring. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

1 January 2021: MASA the year of sanity has arrived. Only 19 days to go. The chump will be dumped. The White House lies will stop. And, hopefully, the best possible decisions, even if not perfect, will be made. At least when Biden addresses the nation, the address will be believable, and his press secretary will not be an idiot. Congress overrode DDT’s veto of the military bill, the first such override on 4 years. McConnell is still striking the more effective veto by refusing to allow the Senate to vote on the COVIS bill passed by the House. DDT is trying to affect Biden from the political grave by extending the visa work permit ban until March. It’s the pout of a child, but then what would you expect from the diapered one. Portland started off the New Year with a riot. I’m no longer surprised. The question is how long will ordinary people put up with the disruptive behavior? Georgia elections are only 4 days away. Just threw that in to stir a bit of adrenalin into a dull day. Representative-Elect Burgess Owens (Utah) has come out and said that he believes that DDT won the election despite all evidence that Biden won easily. Where do these people come from and who in their right mind votes for them? Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

31 December: MASA getting close. 20 (0+20) days to go. Finally, it is New Year’s Eve and all is quiet except in New Zealand and Taiwan where CV-19 has been beaten back. Next year should be different, we can hope. The Chump (DDT) is back at the White House plotting who knows what. There is smoke coming from the living quarters as DDT uses all two digits of his IQ to figure out what scam can he pull is 2021 in the 20 days remaining. It looks like the $2000 check is dead. This is both good and bad, since it is $2000 per person and should just go to people that need it, the unemployed and low-income people. In Georgia, Perdue is quarantining, which I hope is permanent politically speaking. The race is close. DDT is planning to go down to Georgia, but it is not clear if will campaign for himself or the Republican candidates KKK Loeffler or alleged stock swindle Perdue. Biden will also appear in Georgia and campaign for the Democratic duo. This year Times Square in NYC will be almost empty. It’s sad, but necessary. Happy New year everyone. With just a little luck 2021 should be a lot better than 2020. Bye Chump, it’s been sad to know you. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

30 December: MASA…1 more day in 2020. 21 (1+20) days to go. As usual, the administration is bungling the distribution of the COVID vaccine and DDT simultaneously blaming the states for his own lack of leadership. Donald Chump will go down as the worst president ever and the most disruptive. His niece warned everyone that this would be the case, so in that sad sense, he has succeeded both domestically and overseas. Now it will up to the Biden administration and Congress to fix things. Democrats have got to win in Georgia and get the obstinate obstructionist out of the Senate leadership. Just like right now, McConnell is blocking consideration of the House-passed bill to up stimulus checks to $2000. There is a little piece of the Republican argument that I agree with. The $2000 should be better targeted to unemployed families and lower-income people. At least the current $600 check bill extends unemployment benefits a little. The new strain of CV-19 is definitely in the US and has been transmitted by other unidentified people. It should spread like wildfire since it is much easier to transmit and affects children more easily. C’mon guys, roll out that vaccine in the millions and millions of doses. We have about 380 million people to vaccinate twice. You do the math. An amusing event occurred in Georgia, Jon Ossoff hijacked a Fox News interview to go after his opponents and Chump in a big way. He politely, but forcefully answered questions of the interviewer. The interview is online. As if COVID were not enough, Norway had a landslide that killed at least 12, Yemen had an attack on the new negotiated government that killed dozens and wounded many more, and a Canadian politician faked Twitter posts to conceal a Caribbean holiday. Then there is the mess in Iraq where camps are closing and the people in them have nowhere to go, since their former neighbors will not take them back. I’m sure there is more mess, but this is enough. Donald Chump's misrule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

29 December: MASA…getting there. 22 (2+20) days to go. McConnell is blocking the $2000 checks to put other issues in the bill, such as removing the protection of internet customers and change the election process to favor Republicans in the name of voting security. McConnell knows that Democrats will never go along with this. The more contagious version of CV-19 has been discovered in Colorado. So far, it looks like the vaccine will work on both and that masks are still the solution. Right now the rollout of the vaccine is ragged. Biden is telling everyone that this has got to be fixed and promises to do so immediately after 20 January. It is starting to look like the Tennessee bomber was simply disconnected from reality and had police hating past. It is still not clear why he chose Nashville’s downtown. The US and EU are pushing China to release the citizen journalist convicted for documenting the COVID pandemic in Wuhan. We have to get past Jan 6 when DDT has one last improbable chance to snatch the election during the Senate's review of the electoral college vote. Of immediate use to all of us, the new dietary guidelines ignore the recommendation of reduced sugar and alcohol. Other than earthquakes in Bosnia, chaos in Venezuela, transition in the UK, spreading of the new variant of CV-19, DDT pouting and stamping his little feet in Florida, global warming continuing under DDT’s guidance, and on and on. Donald Chump's rule continues for just a short while longer. Bye Chump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

28 December: MASA…..23 (3+20) days to go. Heading towards the critical dates, January 6 and January 20. After holding out on signing the relief bill, now DDT is going to try to take credit. The House has now passed a $2000 one-time payment bill (up from $600) and passed it on to the Senate. It’s in McConnell’s corner now. Will he or won’t he pass it in time for January 5. Of course, I’m talking about the Georgia Senate voting on January 5. The House has voted to override DDT’s veto of the defense spending bill and it is off to the Senate to do the same. All this in the last minutes before the lame-duck session ends. Biden just gave a speech claiming that the DDT administration is not sharing the information needed for the defense of the US. What are they hiding and why are they hiding it? In addition, Biden is claiming that DDT has hollowed out the national security teams to obstruct the transition process. The Nashville bomber suicide is not embraced by the QAnon theory and the like nut jobs. Conspiratorial circles have begun casting doubt on his identity, or else applauding his actions. Another, now fired, police officer has fatally shot and killed an unarmed black man holding a cell phone, which the coroner has ruled is a homicide. And, of course, DDT and his slavish minions are trying to overturn the election by suing Pence to force him to accept Republican-appointed electors in place of the electors won by Biden. Even Rupert Murdoch has turned on DDT accusing him of insanity even though he and his media outlets endorsed DDT in the election. Roger Stone met with DDT and thanked him for the pardon and discussed ways DDT could remain in power. China has sentenced a citizen journalist to 4 years in prison for reporting on the Wuhan virus outbreak. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

27 December: MASA... 24 (4+20) days to go. 2020 is drawing to a close as is the reign of the would-be joke-king, DDT. Using all two digits of his vaunted IQ, DDT is sitting on the COVID relief bill as if he does not give a damn about people in need. In 24 days, we can do the same for him. Even his own party is telling him to sign the laboriously crafted bipartisan bill as unemployment benefits lapse. A GOP House member, Adam Kinzinger, calls Trump’s election fraud allegation a 'scam', a scam used to raise money from the gullible, for challenging the election, but instead for his own personal benefit. The Nashville bomber has been identified, but there seems to be no reason for his suicide and destructive blast. Fortunately, no other people were killed. Marco Rubio has gone off the deep end of mental instability claiming the Fauci lied about the need for masks and the idea of letting everyone get sick to achieve herd immunity. This is a man holding fast to certain coattails in the vain hope of energizing DDT’s base for his future run for president. The image is vile if you just imagine where his nose lies. With his popularity rising, it looks as if Warnock might be Georgia’s first black senator. Now, we just have to get Ossoff over the finish line as well. Warnock’s opponent Kelly Loeffler was caught posing for pictures with a long-term white supremacist who is part of the KKK and the neo-Nazi Alliance. Hold your breath and wait for January 6th. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

26 December: MASA still ahead…Christmas has come and gone.25 (5+20) days to go. The loudest sound is the clicking of DDT’s golf clubs as the US burns. Not the well off, of course, but regular people who have lost their jobs as DDT ignores the whole mess. What is going on here is DDT taking petty revenge for people voting him out of office. He never did the job of a real president, so why should we expect him to behave like one now. DDT = PINO. We still have the 3-year old throwing a tantrum over someone taking his toy away from him after an overlong visit so he can go home. Biden blasted DDT on his refusal to sign the bill since unemployment benefits stopped today without DDT’s signature. Evictions will restart on 1 January. Pelosi is having the House vote on DDT’s $2000 check for people not earning a lot of money. The DDT $2000 amount is just BS and just put out there to cause confusion and dissent. Naturally, McConnell is against any expansion of the benefits to ordinary people and small businesses. Still no motive or suspect in the Nashville bombing. I just hope this was a one-off lunatic act. DDT once again is no a Twitter tirade attacking everyone right and left on the Supreme Court, the Senate, State officials, and anyone else he perceives standing in the way of an illegal coup. This man needs to go to jail for many reasons, not just the bank and tax fraud cases pending and the alleged rape charges. So, it’s business as usual. Let’s hope the Democrats sweep Georgia and push McConnell aside. Republicans in various states where they control the legislatures are pushing changes to make voting harder, particularly the use of absentee ballots, by requiring specific kinds of voter photo ID. This is the very kind of ID that poorer people are unlikely to have, especially blacks concentrated in urban areas. This is a case of Republicans trying to steal the next election by the only means they can win. Oh, did I mention it, but Brexit is reality and the UK will have tolive with the consequences, good or bad. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

25 December: MASA… 26 (6+20) days to go. It’s Christmas Day today with CV-19 making it tough to have family together except electronically. There has been a postponement this year in New Year’s Eve. This year New Year’s Eve will not be until 19 January, when a real New Year will start on the 20th with a drained swamp. DDT promised to drain the swamp in Washington, but instead made was deeper and dirtier. DDT is the swamp and the source of corruption and BS. An unexplained bomb inside an RV went off in Nashville TN today destroying and ATT property and knocking out phone and 911 service. So far, no claim of responsibility and no known motive. It is weird. There were gunshots, a warning to evacuate, and a 15-minute countdown. As of this writing, there appears to be only one casualty. Today is a quiet day in the US marred only by the crack of a DDT golf club while the Pandemic Relief Bill sits awaiting signature. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

24 December: MASA…soon. It's Christmas eve. 27 (7+20) days to go. The day before Christmas the UK has achieved a BREXIT deal avoiding complete chaos just in time. Tomorrow I want to read the details especially the fishing rights and Ireland’s border. The headline in the Guardian is that BOJO got BREXIT done in a manner that will please no one. Still better than crashing out. The GOP has blocked Democrats from passing DDT’s $2000 payment to everyone with low income. Let’s see if he signs the existing stimulus bill while vacationing in Florida. The DDT pardon romp will be a scandal for years to come, and there is more coming in the next few weeks along with god knows what other mischief. It is ugly already with DDT trying to block Biden from being effective, but I think the DDT is in for a surprise. The new strain of CV-19 in the UK is spreading faster and producing more hospitalizations and more deaths than the original strain. Let’s hope the vaccines work on the new and old strains. DDT gave a little talk at Mar a Lago about how he will be working tirelessly for Americans just before going and playing golf. He must have a BS button in the back of his head that he pushes when talking to people. I’ve thought about th e[pardon situation many times and wondered why cannot the same people be brought before the FBI or a grand jury and be asked to testify again. Lying again would put them right back in the same deep legal hole that is not protected by a pardon for past crimes. According to the Hill, “A federal judge on Thursday approved an agreement between the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and civil rights groups that would implement measures to ensure that absentee ballots in Georgia are delivered in time for the state's two Senate runoff elections next month.” Good deal. At least we might have a fair election insofar as the postal service is concerned. Postal “SERVICE”, notice the word service. It should be a service and brought back inside the government. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 1 more month of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

23 December: MASA approaching. 28 (8+20) days to go. DDT issues 26 more pardons to his friends Manafort, Stone, and Charles Kushner, and other supporters, and also the Blackwater guards that massacred Iraqis including women and children. Today was another DDT day with DDT vetoing the military funding bill that was passed with a veto-proof majority. In addition, DDT wants to veto the COVID bill wanting to add a $2000 check to people instead of the hard-fought compromise of $600. This ruckus is having an impact on the Georgia elections for 2 Senate seats. It is forcing the Republican Loeffler to change her position in order to support DDT. One hopes that the Republican chaos leads to the Democrats taking both seats. The Georgia election chief is now trying to change the rules for absentee voting to minimize the number of people that can vote absentee without an excuse. It’s hard to say what is going to happen with DDT’s attempt at a coup. Will the Secret Service usher DDT off the premises? I guess we’ll find out near January 20th. Interestingly, Andrew Yang has filed to run for Mayor of New York City. It’s a step down from his Presidential ambitions, but perhaps is a step in that direction in the future. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

22 December: MASA: 29 (9+20) days to go. Here we go again with DDT. Let me count the ways. DDT wants t to amend the CV-19 relief bill to add in bigger stimulus checks even though the Republicans, and especially McConnell, fought these bigger checks for the past 6 months. He’s going for $2000 instead of $600. Pelosi immediately agreed and said the House would pass such an amendment right away. He’s after the Republican’s in the Senate for not backing his attempt at a coup. He’s gone and pardoned everyone convicted by Mueller including Blackwater people and disgraced lawmakers. According to Newsweek, there is going to be an alternate virtual inauguration attended by 60,000 supporters. DDT is turning on everyone around him, and I mean everyone. DDT thinks that everyone around him is either weak or stupid of both. This includes Vice President Pence, chief of staff Mark Meadows, White House counsel Pat Cipollone, Secretary of State Pompeo, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. The bottom line, DDT is thinking strongly about ways to have a coup. The CV-19 crisis is growing worse by the day with more and more hospitals overcrowded and hospital workers overworked to the point where they are dropping of fatigue. DDT meanwhile just fiddles with conspiracy theories and imagined coups. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

21 December: Holidays are fast approaching along with some sanity, MASA. 30 (10+20) days to go The stimulus bill has agreed upon filled with goodies for the rich and, fortunately, a lot of help for people in need. The Democrats had to choose between principle and helping people who are desperate. In this case, helping is the right and only move. Hopefully, the damage included in the bill can be undone later. Biden took his dose of the vaccine today in public. It’s a good start. Barr is suddenly sounding normal now that his resignation is just two days away. He has told DDT that there is no need for a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden since the investigation underway now is sufficient. He also said again that there is no election fraud and that the Russians are almost certain to be behind the cyberattack. Go ahead, DDT, fire Barr. From the Guardian, The DDT white house has entered its final stage, complete meltdown. DDT is floating having the nut job Sidney Powell appointed as special counsel to use her belief in conspiracy theories to investigate the election. That should be fun in the next 30 days. The cyberattack appears to be more serious than first thought, especially the attack on the US Treasury, but the full depth is not yet known. One question is, has US taxpayer information been stolen? I guess we’ll find out. So far silence from DDT. I do not think Biden will be so passive. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

20 December: MASA and New years are both getting closer. 31 (11+20) days to go Hooray, Congress just agreed on a stimulus bill with $600 checks after much wrangling. Of course, the devil is in the details and the details are the Republican’s efforts to hamstring Biden. To quote an aide to Republican Senator Toomey (Steve Kelly), "Senate Republicans achieved all four of our objectives regarding the CARES Act Federal Reserve lending programs. This agreement rescinds more than $429 billion in unused CARES Act funds; definitively ends the CARES Act lending facilities by Dec. 31, 2020, stops these facilities from being restarted, and forbids them from being duplicated without congressional approval. This agreement will preserve Fed independence and prevent Democrats from hijacking these programs for political and social policy purposes.” I am surprised that the Democrats caved on this one. I know that there are people out there that need assistance badly, so perhaps the cave is needed. However, this concession to Republican fanatics will cause hardship later. Finally, Mitt R, you are calling DDT’s efforts to overturn the election sad and pathetic. It is also pathetic and sad that you did nothing while DDT attempted to destroy the US for his own personal glorification. It’s not as if you need the money from your Senate job. Chris Wallace of Fox News has got to be fired immediately now that he has gone after his Fox colleagues who complained about Jill Biden’s use of the well-earned Dr. title in front of her name. Shame on Chris for respecting Jill Biden’s career. DDT is back at it again in front of the Supreme Court with a phony challenge to the Pennsylvania election. Not much longer until the nonsense stops. Microsoft is making its own chips to follow the lead of Apple and lessen its dependence on Intel for its Surface Computers. This should be interesting. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

19 December: MASA ever closer. 32 (12+20) days to go. Finally, DDT has taken a stand on the cyberattack and told us the lie he wants to substitute. Instead of Russia, as our intelligence community believes, DDT is claiming it’s China even though there is no evidence. Of course, DDT is biased as pro-Putin, a dictator he admires and who may have destructive information on him. Microsoft has taken action to secure the systems running Windows, but other systems may have to be entirely wiped and rebuilt from the ground up. Parts of Europe have no gone into lockdown, especially the UK where there is a new more infectious strain of CV-19 circulating. The vaccine is still months away from being generally available. Expect 400,000 deaths soon and who knows how many before the vaccine finally stops the spread. In addition to wildly thrashing around for ways to maintain power by, for example, declaring martial law, he has also raised over $200 million. The big question is what will happen to all that unregulated money? Most of it is in a PAC that can be used to sustain DDT’ism, but not used directly for a 2024 run for the president. With DDT’s usual adherence to the law, you can bet it will be used for his own purposes anyway. The Georgia race stays tight with Rep. Pressley (D-Mass.) ripping Georgia’s Republican candidates Perdue and Loeffler, saying that they are "the Bonnie and Clyde of corruption." This is one that the Democrats have to win for control of the Senate if Biden is to get anything done in the next 2 years. I just watched a program on the rise of Hitler in Germany. It is uncanny about the parallels between Hitler and DDT, except that Hitler was a lot smarter than DDT and ultimately a lot more evil. Hitler also received much less resistance from the existing government and courts than did Hitler. Still, it is a chilling window into what could happen here with a person bent on dictatorship but with the planning skills better than a chipmunk. After Hitler took power, he reshaped Germany as an industrial giant with public spending and a political party that did not take no for an answer. Reminds me of China today with the communist-fascist party in control. It's communist in name only and fascist in practice and should be called out as such. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

 

18 December: MASA….tick….tock. 33 (13+20) days to go. The silence of DDT is deafening. After almost 4 years of constant cacophony and lies, there is now nothing. We have a major security breach of both critical companies and government probably by the Russians, and the president maintains silence. We have well over 300,000 people dead with many more dying every day and the president maintains silence. Basically, we are witnessing the big sulk. When he leaves office, I expect a big burst of attempts to undermine the Biden administration with feigned grievances about a stolen election and the threat to run again in 2024. As someone pointed out, he has the knack to entertain with shouts and bluster and the strategic ability of a hamster. This is a hamster that can still do harm to the country because he has the power to rouse his mindless followers in Republican primaries to threaten the political careers of people that should have the courage to stand up to him. He could not do anything if the Republicans have the spine to do what is best for the country. These are not poor people that will be destitute if they lose their political jobs. DDT is now berating McConnell to get tougher to keep him in the White House. It never stops. Biden’s transition team is having trouble with the Pentagon to exchange information. What a surprise. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

17 December: MASA…..34 (14+20) days to go. DDT has gone sort of quiet (for him). If our Democracy survives, DDT will go down as our worst modern president, an incompetent sociopathic lout. Those three words sum him up neatly. Add dangerous, if he reappears in the political structure. Hopefully, he will be so caught up in legal and financial problems that he will not have time to be really dangerous, just noise on the sidelines. The CV-19 relief bill is moving forward with $600 relief checks, no immunity from lawsuits for companies, and no aid to states. Today, McConnell had the temerity to give a short speech on the Senate floor telling everyone how important it is to hurry. This after causing delay after delay himself. He is first and foremost a power-hungry hypocrite. We have a Senator who is willing to challenge the electoral college vote, Tuberville, a newly elected Republican senator from Alabama. The summer heat must have got to his brain. We now have 2 CV-19 vaccines approved, one of which does not have to be stored at super cold temperatures, just an ordinary refrigerator will do. The Sackler family refused to apologize or even acknowledge that they had anything to do with the opioid epidemic. That is one evil greedy family. BREXIT talks are failing again with both sides being quite stubborn. There seems to be no path to compromise. The UK’s BOJO is the main stumbling block at this point, but the EU is not helping either. Macron has tested positive for CV-19. Hope he is OK. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

16 December” MASA….. 35 (15+20) days to go Finally, it looks like a stimulus bill will pass the House and Senate that includes money for poor people. Unfortunately, the bill is split into two parts with support for states buried in the second bill. With taxes down, states are going to be in big trouble by the middle of 2021. That’s funny. Apparently, gambling bookmakers are now paying off bets that Biden will be president and it is making DDT supporters furious (more losers). QAnon followers are leaving the Republican party to form one of their own. This is a form of natural selection – go drink bleach buddies. A secret email has come to light showing that DDT wanted to infect children with CV-19 and as many adults as possible to achieve herd immunity regardless of how many people would die. He has almost achieved his wish with the death toll over 304,000 and rising. The general distribution of vaccine is still several months off, so lots more can die while we are waiting. Some bad news. A Kenyan man (an alleged al-Shabaab operative) was charged in a plot resembling 9/11 who trained as an airline pilot. That’s all we need are foreign terrorist attacks in the US when we have enough domestic lunatics running around. Case in point, a Kansas mayor has quit in fear over death threats for backing a mask-wearing ordinance. DDT has been unusually quiet today. He’s either sulking or plotting, who knows? As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

15 December: MASA....... 36 (16+20) days to go. Nothing happened on Tuesday except McConnell grudging said that Biden was elected president. Sarcastic Hooray for McConnell. CV-19 continues to be deadly. Brexit discussions continue. Iran executes a journalist. Sudan is taken off the terrorist list. More cabinet appointments that include Pete B., which is a good thing. There is a lot of griping that Biden is not picking more minorities for his cabinet but is leaning heavily on people with experience as well as minorities and women. It looks like DDT is going to walk into a series of serious court cases without the immunity of being President. Orange clothing will go well with his complexion. DDT is still obscenely tweeting nonsense, a loser to the end. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

14 December: MASA……37 (17+20) days to go.  Hooray, hooray, the big bad Barr is gone (almost, he leaves at Christmas to spend more time with his family, HaHa). Fired but not fired by the ever-shifting moodiness of “TaDa” DDT. Each praised the other in a Mind twisting back-slapping exercise in futility. What toady will step in to lead the charade as acting AG. In this case, the acting will be real, right out of Central Casting, with Rosen being next in line. The Electoral College has spoken. Biden is President on 20 January and hopefully, sanity will return to government. Hopefully, Biden will root ou the moles that have suddenly burrowed into the civil service where they could impede the onset of good and responsible government. Out with the party of Spend and Borrow, debt be damned. Finally, there is a last-minute bipartisan bill for CV-19 relief that may pass muster if OLD McConnell can put his patriotic glasses on and bring help to the people bill to the floor. Remember 5 January 2020, the day that Democrats have a chance to seize control of the Senate and sideline OLD McConnell. OLD McConnell had a farm eieiOH. And on this farm he had an ass DDTDDToh, with a bray bray here and a bray bray there, OLD McConnell had a farm. Time to bury both in the compost heap of history. Russia has been caught with S on their hands in the poisoning of Navalny. Looks like an FSB job by individuals that have been identified as following Navalny. Brexit talks have been extended again with hints of progress. Warning, we are headed for a blockbuster snowstorm, the first of the winter. Brrrrr. Get your snow shovels ready. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

13 December: MASA ……. 38 (18+20) days to go. US government agencies have been hacked by the Russians (allegedly) with almost no reaction from DDT. I hope that weal loser reaction n does not continue under Biden. It’s time to put Putin and cronies on notice that this kind of behavior is intolerable. The current president, DDT, seems incapable of any action against Putin except rubbing against his hindquarters lips puckered. Tomorrow, the electoral college delivers its final verdict on the 2020 election, which should put an end to DDT’s seditious attempts to overturn the election. The end of this process has not been written because DDT has promised to foment dissent against Biden as president. It could get ugly until DDT is in jail for tax and bank fraud. Bill Barr has called DDT a “deposed king” after DDT hit out at Barr over the Hunter Biden tax probe. I hate to tell you, DDT, Hunter was not running for president, and if kids are going to be the measure, look closer to your own brood of criminals. Oh yeah, a Wall Street Journal columnist, Joseph Epstein, has decided that Jill Biden should not be able to use the term Dr. for her Ph.D. He suggests “kiddo” as a title. This character has claimed he never used the title Dr. himself, which is good since he only has a lowly BS degree. His wife should throw him out into the street. With only a short while before the inauguration, the DDT attempt to overthrow the constitution and the US government enters a dangerous stage. You now have a cornered animal that knows its days are numbered and will try anything available to save itself even if destructive and illegal. Be prepared for the worst in the next 39 days. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

12 December: MASA ………. 39 (19+20) days to go. The right-wing nuts are screeching secession now that their last-ditch stupidity failed in DDT’s stacked “conservative” Supreme Court. Even they, everyone but Alito and Thomas, voted to throw the case out, and even Alito could not see any merit. The anything-goes website, Parler, is now filled with disappointed Trumpites calling for all the “RED” states to secede from the US. Others are calling to the GOP to self-destruct and form what? Still, others are calling for the military to intervene in a coup. Why a group of people would want to live in a dictatorship is beyond me. There was a large demonstration in DC today protesting the election with DDT’s best on display (Proud Boys, etc.) and a speech by Flynn threatening some form of unspecified insurrection. Hopefully, most of this will die down after the electoral college vote but do not take it for granted. It’s painful realizing that a large minority of Americans do not have a clue about living in a democracy and the requirement to have norms for behavior if the country is to succeed. Craziness in Europe continues over Brexit with the final hours approaching to make a deal. Perhaps they too will get a 1-week delay. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

11 December: MASA time just marches on, slowly. 40 (20+20) days to go. The Supreme Court justifiably rejected DDT and his preposterous claims about the election. Just two of the predictable justices went along with the evil clown, Alito and Thomas. The other 7 saved the court from humiliation. DDT signed the 1-week extension to the Federal budget to give them time to do a relief bill. Good luck! Right now, the two Democrats in Georgia hold a tiny lead over the Republicans. Let’s grow that lead. Looks like Bill Barr (the door) had two hidden Hunter Biden probes ongoing for quite a while with nothing coming out. Florida’s governor, DeSantis, is trying to defend his 3rd world country raid on a whistleblower’s home with armed police threatening her children. Her crime, telling the truth about CV-19 infection rates. I can see why DeSantis would want to get after her. What would the world be if people told the truth? Unthinkable. If you think things are bad in the US, the UK is facing a real crisis with the looming no-agreement Brexit. The big question is will Scotland break away from the UK to stay in the EU just like Ireland. CV-19 is exploding to new record highs as DDT takes credit for the ever-approaching herd immunity. Unfortunately, a lot of people have to die to achieve his goal. The Republicans are deplorable. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

 

10 December: MASA tick-tock tick tock. 41 (21+20) days to go. There is a bid to have Congress overturn the election that has been signed on to by 17 Republican-led states and 100 Republican House members. USA Today called DDT and his fanatical allies electoral terrorists participating in a failed coup. It has got to stop. Now the Republicans are signaling that there will be no support for the Bipartisan Relief Plan. McConnell has also rejected the plan, which means there will be no relief for suffering people and small businesses until the next congress. This unlike the EU, which today approved a large stimulus plan as Poland and Hungry dropped their objections. Biden gave a talk and basically said that the defund the police movement caused significant defeats for the Democrats. He’s probably right. Reform the police is appropriate but defunding them is too extreme. The Hunter Biden tax investigation is going to cause a mess for Joe Biden unless a neutral investigation is enabled that is independent of the administration and the AG. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

9 December: MASA somewhere, please. 42 (22+20) days to go. Hunter Biden is being investigated by Delaware and the Feds for tax purposes. Who knows what they will find? Hopefully, the professionals he hired did it right and that he honestly disclosed his income. DDT has got 17 states trying to get the Supreme Court to overturn an honest election. There should be penalties for dishonest lawsuits. Yay, the house passed a 1 week extension of the budget to get work done that should have been finished months ago, namely the federal budget. Furlough anyone? The two Republican robots in Georgia just threw their support behind the lawsuit to invalidate the election. These guys, Loeffler and Perdue, need to be defeated. Brexit without an agreement is still in the works with Sunday as the deadline. The UK might become a 3rd world country. Facebook has been hit with a major FTC divestment lawsuit for Instagram and WhatApp. Interesting. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

8 December: MASA 1 day closer: 43 (23+20) days to go. The Supreme Court rejected a bid to overturn Biden’s win in Pennsylvania. This could be the end of DDT’s fruitless efforts to overturn the election results. There will still be groups out there with minor suits attempting to change results and to argue that the vote was implausibly rigged. But, other than nut cases, the arguments are finally starting to fade. However, congressional Republicans are still refusing to acknowledge that Biden won the election. DDT of course is threatening to take it further and possibly stoke some kind of extra-legal rejection of the election and try to retain power. He knows, the moment he leaves the presidency, he is in deep legal jeopardy both financially and criminally. The Arizona GOP just asked Republicans if they are willing to die in an effort to overturn the election” The Republican party is now unmoored from reality and treading in waters that amount to encouraging insurrection. It’s time to disband the party by splitting off the true conservatives from the anti-democratic wing of the party. There was a time not that long ago when the idea of being a conservative had a logical and moral appeal. It still does, but the Republican party does not represent conservatives. Not even the basics of being conservative as it has run up the national debt largely by reducing taxes on the wealthy and corporations while spending drunkenly. Today, McConnell seems to have backed off from his demand that there be corporate shielding from CV-19 lawsuits as part of the stimulus bill. Perhaps there is hope before the end of December. DDT, as usual, has screwed up big time with his negotiations with Pfizer over CV-19 vaccine doses. His administration refused to buy the doses needed when they were available with the result that Pfizer sold the dosed to other countries. DDT is fuming that Pfizer should not have been allowed to do that. He’s right, except for one small item. The Pfizer vaccine was not developed with US money and was not developed in the US. It’s a German development that Pfizer bought into on its own. They offered the US 200 million doses but got turned down. Stupid, as always. Now let’s hope the Moderna comes through for the US. Biden is pledging 100 million doses in 100 days. If he fails, it will not be for lack of trying. Brexit is in the news again with the final-final separation day coming 31 December with many issues still left to be settled. OK…there is more, but this is getting a bit long. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

7 December: MASA inches closer: 44 (24+20) days to go. McConnell is still playing power politics obstructing help for the people in need. He’s going for what he is calling targeted stimulus, but really is a gift to the wealthy instead of those who really need help. The government is about to run out of funding but there is a proposal to do a 1-week extension. I’ve seen this play before. Walking to the edge of the cliff and threatening to jump. Bad thing is that sometimes the government jumps for a few weeks and people suffer. This is bad enough in ordinary times, but not with the pandemic, hunger, and homelessness. CV-19 is still ramping up day by day. As the holiday season, Christmas and New Year’s, approaches the situation is going to get worse, especially as fools hold parties and refuse to wear masks. This is a sort of natural selection, except that innocent people get hurt along the way. The US is restoring the rights for DACA eligible people and accepting new applications thanks to a court decision and the fact that Biden is backing it. This is the first of many undoings of the DDT administrations. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

6 December: MASA creeping closer. 45 (25+20) days to go. While I despise Rudi G, I feel sorry for him if he has CV-19. I hope it is a mild case. Will he or won’t he? That is the question. Whether it is legal or not legal to pardon himself, only the Supreme Court will know. Will he or won’t he pardon his family? Stay tuned. The Georgia governor, Kemp, has mocked DDT’s lawyer’s election fraud suit. Good deal. Biden keeps nominating experienced people, the latest is Xavier Becerra to run HHS during the time fo the CV-19 pandemic. He led the defense of Obamacare. In Georgia, there was a debate today where the Republican Loeffler tried to paint Warnock as a wild eyed liberal that would ruin America. He is a liberal. Especially in Georgia, but hardly wild-eyed. In another state, he would be moderate. YAY! Barr is considering leaving DOJ before DDT’s term is up. Smart move. CV-19 set another record today. Scary. Where will it end? DDT is doing his best to destroy our democracy to satisfy his personal ego in the way a 3-year old might when a toy is taken away. He’s done everything except for being flat on his back on the ground kicking his heels and screaming. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

5 December: MASA where are you. 46 (26+20) days to go. DDT is still fighting the 2020 election trying to order the Georgia governor, Kemp, to declare the vote invalid and hold another. Kemp, to his credit, has told DDT to go jump in a shallow lake headfirst. DDT is not happy. With so much money at his beck and call, over $250 million, DDT is a danger to us all unless he winds up convicted of a felony and resides in jail. That $250 million will still be a loose political cannon depending on who controls the funds. The Georgia elections look very close indeed with the Democrats having a good chance to take it all. Here’s hoping. If they don’t, McConnell can sabotage a Biden administration by not letting him appoint the people he is choosing for cabinet and agency heads. With so many DDT vacancies in agencies many layers deep this is no joke for Biden getting a functioning government. His ability to even make temporary appointments will be severely curtailed. CV-19 continues to spread and kill with no relief in sight until perhaps this summer when a vaccine becomes widely available. A recent article about strong illegal immigration and the upcoming more lenient Biden policies claims it is going to cause a headache for processing people trying to enter the country. There are already a huge number of back cases for administrative law judges to handle, and it will only get worse. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

4 December: MASA coming slowly one day at a time. 47 (27+20) days to go. There may be some relief coming. Pelosi and McConnell may agree to some kind of aid in the vicinity of $900 billion. In the meantime, nothing is really happening to help people and small businesses. DDT has raised over $207 million on the false pretense that the money will be used to challenge the election. In reality, most of the money goes to a fund that DDT can use pretty much as he pleases. The solicitation emphasizes the election, but the fine print says otherwise. Fraud right out in the open. DDT’s wall is largely unfinished. Most of the construction has been in areas where there already was a smaller wall. There are large areas with no wall in-between sections with an incomplete wall. Mexico has not paid even 1 cent toward the wall. Ivanka has completed a 5-hour deposition that the AG has characterized as misleading. DDT better pardon her in the next few weeks or she is in trouble. Now, even Kellyanne Conway has said that Biden is the apparent winner of the election. It is amazing when the mouthy BS-person-in-chief acknowledges the obvious. Stay at home orders are proliferating across the US n response to the CV-19 pandemic in spite of no leadership from DDT. The UK is the first country to approve the use of the Pfizer vaccine manufactured in Belgium. Next will be everyone else. This winter, before the vaccines are widely distributed, are going to be rough with hospitals woefully short of beds and personnel. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

3 December: MASA getting closer. 48 (28+20) days to go. What is important are the Georgia elections for the 2 senators. The Republicans seem intent on sabotaging their own candidates, which for me is a good thing. DDT is about to go to Georgia t campaign for them with a lot of invective about his personal woes. Perhaps this will sink the Republicans and give Senate control to Democrats. It’s a long shot, but one can hope. CV-19 keeps exacting a heavy death toll with rising infection numbers and no plan from this administration to do anything. Biden has a plan in place, but it cannot be activated until after 20 January. Biden and other ex-presidents are planning to get vaccinated in public, which may help a lot of people to take the vaccine. DDT, of course, will not participate. Perhaps only Democrats will get vaccinated leaving republicans to get decimated by natural selection (survival of the most intelligent). Nice play DDT. He has just appointed 24 of his buddies to lucrative but largely ceremonial posts in various organizations (e.g., Kennedy Center Board) that will last into Biden’s presidency and beyond. Is there any way to get rid of them? Looks like Ivanka and DDT Jr are being deposed for misuse of funds in various ways. Of course, they are ticked off at the impertinence of prosecutors daring to question their motives. As with all other cases, the Wisconsin Supreme Court has turned down DDT’s last appeal to overturn the election. It never stops. The claims of his lawyers are more and more fantastic as time goes on. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

2 December: MASA coming to a location near you. 49 (29+20) days to go. Not much has happened today. DDT is fuming and fussing about the election as always and how unfair life is to him. After all, he is the very best President America ever had and should be anointed king or at least President for life. We are so ungrateful to vote for someone else, particularly Joe Biden. The Republicans are urging Georgia voters to stay home in the upcoming election. Strange behavior, strange party. DDT is threatening to veto the defense bill unless Congress removes legal protections for social media companies. That is causing a revolt among Republicans. Could they really revolt? Stay tuned. There is a bipartisan $900 billion coronavirus relief bill in Congress that McConnell is expressing scorn about, claiming it is a waste of time. There’s other stuff going on, bank robberies in Brazil, farmer protests in India, a call for early elections in Israel, the US sees the highest death toll from CV-19, and DDT, and Jared Kushner are reported to receive $3.65 million in PPP loan money intended for small business. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

1 December 2020: MASA hurry! 50 (30+20) days to go.McConnell is being stubborn and stupid at the same time trying to starve jobless Americans and get them evicted from their houses. The tiny plan he is willing to consider will be almost ineffective in relieving the food and housing crises and certainly not enough to help small businesses. It’s typical McConnell playing power and control and damn everyone else. He has rejected a bipartisan plan costing about $900 billion. Barr has appointed a special counsel to investigate the Russian investigation during the Biden administration. The investigation will initially be aimed at the FBI and their role in the 2016 election investigation. Barr also announced that he saw no irregularity with the 2020 election that DDT has lost. That should get DDT angry and might get Barr fired if DDT dares. DDT keeps tweeting about Biden who keeps ignoring DDT. Just keep it up Joe. Ignoring DDT is the best policy. Let him tweet and holler into the wind. Most of Bidens administration picks will probably go through easily except for Neera Tanden (OMB) that appears to make Republicans justifiable mad. She has been an outspoken critic of Republicans right down to the personal level for some Senators. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

30 November: MASA: 51 (31+20) days to go. It is official! Arizona and Wisconsin have officially declared Biden the winner. Other than Supreme Court foolishness (unlikely) it’s over. DDT needs to start packing. The Supreme Court today expressed extreme skepticism of DDT’s move to exclude undocumented people from the census count. Of course, there is no way to do this even if the SC decided to agree with DDT. DDT is after the governor of Georgia again to overrule the Georgia Secretary of State and invalidate the election. By law, the governor cannot do this, but that does not seem to make a difference to DDT. Kushner is heading to the Middle East to mess with the situation again during the tensions built up from the killing of the Iranian scientist. France is in a tizzy over a new law that forbids filming of the police over the same issues, police brutality, that are roiling things here. CV-19 continues to spread with lockdowns spreading in response. Wisconsin has followed DDT’s advice by conducting fewer tests leading to fewer cases and fewer reported deaths. Even so, cases are up anyway as are deaths. There is nothing like the competent leadership from the DDT administration. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

29 November: MASA: 52 (1+31+20) days to go. DDT is slowly fading with much whining and empty noise. He’s facing considerable court activity even if the federal Justice Department leaves him alone. His machinations are a TV series that will take time. CV-19 is central in most people’s consciousness with nothing happening that will relieve the anxiety caused by the mounting infection and death rates. There are still people out there that think CV-19 is a hoax and that wearing a mask is an infringement on their personal rights. There is certain Darwinian justice in this attitude since it affects mostly Republicans. Strange. One of the congresswomen elected this time around likes to carry a gun on her hip to work. It looks like the rules will permit the carry. Strange world that she would feel the need to carry a weapon to work as a congresswoman (dangerous Democrats?). Pay attention to Georgia’s runoff elections as they will determine control of the Senate. If you can, give more tangible support. DDT paid 3 million dollars for a recount that gave Biden 87 more votes over DDT. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

28 November: MASA tick tock tick tock. 53 (2+31+20) days to go. Georgia is the focus for the next month. Republicans are planning to stay away from voting believing the great DDT that elections are rigged so why bother to come out and vote. I agree Republicans should not bother to come out to vote in large numbers. Perfect. Iran is threatening revenge for the killing of one of their nuclear scientists. It’s not clear who actually did this, but all the usual suspects are suspected, Israel and the US. Revenge is tricky. A false move could trigger war and DDT is well primed for such an action. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court tossed the Republican bid to disenfranchise voters out of the court. The next step is the Supreme Court. Will it never end? Just as yesterday, today is another CV-19 record. This is a not so slow-motion disaster with hospitals already overcrowded. Carter Page, an ex DDT campaign aide, is suing the justice department and the FBI for unlawful surveillance over the Russia probe. Good luck. DDT is planning to start his 2024 campaign for president on the day of Biden’s inauguration ceremony. One can always count on DDT for good taste and discretion. Biden’s COVID adviser just said that many who just celebrated Thanksgiving with family and friends will be in ICUs (Intensive Care Units) over Christmas. Sad but probably true. I’m not sure how much of a death toll it will take before people listen. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

27 November: MASA. 54 (3+31+20) days to go. Right now the news is a big nothing-new burger. The assault on our election goes on but with lots of sound and fury signifying nothing. DDT is going to try the Supreme Court as a last resort. Let’s hope that the newly appointed justices do not destroy the court. I have little faith in them but would like to be proved wrong. The last court challenge gave the following from the judge “Voters, not lawyers, choose the president”. Basically, go away and do not darken my doorway again. DDT is now saying, “Biden Can Only Enter White House as President if He Can Prove 'Ridiculous' 80,000,000 Votes”. The child never stops his tantrum. On January 20, he will either leave peacefully or by force. Sad if the latter. The bottom line, the DDT administration is whining down. DDT is saying he will campaign in Georgia for the senate seats calling on Republicans not to boycott the elections. I hope his presence gets lots of Democrats out. A little good news, “Belarus dictator Lukashenko says he'll leave the post after the new constitution.” Now we just need DDT to follow our “old” constitution. Of course, CV-19 sets new records and is crowding hospitals with the worst yet to come with the holidays and the onset of real winter. Meanwhile, DDT is sitting on his hands with his thumbs (you know where) doing nothing to help. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the stable-genius, our h.a., the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns. TBO.

26 November: MASA sigh. 55 (4+31+20) days to go. News Flash…DDT says he will leave the White House if The electoral college votes for Joe Biden. How beneficent of him to agree to leave. Will he carve his initials in the President’s desk or some other defacement of the building in line with his defacement of the presidency? Only time will tell. DDT is right though. The elections are rigged and so far Republicans have been the beneficiaries. Perhaps it is time to unrig them and back to free and fair elections. Speaking of elections, the big one to watch is in Georgia with Democrats Warnock and Ossoff running against Perdue and Loeffler, with Perdue apparently enriching himself with stock trades possibly using inside information he had access to as a Senator. We need to get both Democrats elected, so Georgia, get out the vote. Time to investigate. DDT and his allies still are refusing to recognize the Pennsylvania election results. Today was another day of soaring hospitalizations from CV-19, and we have not even started winter. Ok guys, it’s official, you need 150 minutes of exercise every week during this pandemic, just a little over 20 minutes per day. If not, you will turn into a lump. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

25 November: MASA tick tock. 56 (5+31+20) days to go. DDT pardons Flynn with more to follow plus lots of executive orders to make is more difficult for the incoming Biden administration. The pardons cannot be undone, but the executive orders can be rescinded even if some of them will be awkward to undo. DDT is still calling into various meetings to claim victory. The latest was a Rudi G meeting in Pennsylvania where he made totally unfounded claims again about winning because Democrats have too many people voting. Sad. We now have DDT political appointees trying to burrow into the civil service. About 12 of them have been approved. The next item is scary. The Israeli military is preparing for a DDT attack on Iran in the waning days of his administration. An attack would be really bad for the US to get involved in a major war during a time of transition. The whole Middle East will be in flames. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

24 November: MASA getting closer. 57 (6+31+20) days to go. Nevada and Pennsylvania have just certified Biden as the winner, and earlier, Michigan, so it is game over for DDT. Next up is prosecution for tax and bank loan fraud plus civil suits for defamation from woman  that he molested or possibly raped. Then there is that 500 million dollars at stake (loans plus tax lien). Sounds like DDT is going to have some fun filled few years ahead of him. Biden keeps picking competent cabinet officers and staff. Let’s hope that those needing Senate confirmation are indeed confirmed. There is mysterious metal monolith found in the Utah desert. No one knows how it got there or what it does (if anything). Curious. Purdue Pharma has admitted guilt in the Oxy-Contin opioid epidemic and will pay substantial fines, but the Sackler family behind Purdue will hardly suffer at all. This is not right. Senator Feinstein is stepping down from the top Democratic spot on the Judiciary committee because of age related issues. Sad but appropriate. CV-19 is swamping the hospitals all over the country particularly in rural areas. The vaccine is sorely needed to prevent disaster and get life back to something resembling normal. The loss of life is horrific and getting worse, but small compared to the opioid epidemic. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

23 November: MASA a little bit closer. 58 (7+31+20) days to go. Today, late in the afternoon, the GSA certified the start of the transition after intense pressure from a lot of people for the head of GSA to do the obvious. It’s done and let the real transition started. It looks like Biden is bringing in a team of real professionals who will hit the gerund knowing exactly what they are and should be doing. This will be so different from the inexperienced dummies and some inexperienced intelligent people brought in by DDT. DDT is still going down the rabbit hole looking for some signs of election fraud. No luck (for DDT) yet and none in sight. This election was done really carefully and honestly. Now start calling Mayflower and get the bums out of the Whitehouse. DDT is thinking of pushing Don Jr or Ivanka for 2024. Good luck with those ones. The stock market responded positively to the announcement of a 3rd vaccine, one that does not require extreme refrigeration to be viable. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

22 November: MASA after 59 (8+31+20) days to go. DDT is still in a blue funk and squirming as hard as he can to get out of it by hook or by crook, mostly the latter. It’s getting to the point where his ridiculous attempt at a coup is no longer funny but should be considered a crime. On the Biden front, more cabinet selections have been made with what appear to be solid choices. What is missing, thanks to DDT, is access to the FBI to do thorough background checks. The lack of background checks is probably the biggest impediment to a successful transition able to hit the ground running in 20 Jan. Even Chris Christie is telling DDT to cut the nonsense calling DDT’s legal team a national embarrassment. The G20 meeting is producing the usual platitudes about CV-19 and global warming. Now, wait for the action. Yesterday’s CV-19 record has fallen with today’s record. There is more to come with crowded airports and planes causing another surge about 2 weeks from now. The bottom line is that we are waiting for Thanksgiving to be over and for votes to be certified. Until then, it’s nothing new, just DDT tweeting nonsense, Rudi G. sounding crazy (is that news?), and most Republicans sitting on their hands doing nothing. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have less than 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

 

21 November: MASA one day at a time. 60 (9+31+20) days to go. DDT is boring. I hate watching stupid people do dumb things. It’s not funny in movies and less so in real life. In real life, it can be quite sad, especially when the dumb person thinks that are smart, mistaking vindictiveness for being bright. A stupid loser bully is the epitome of boring. Nothing much new today. Rudy and DDT are nattering away about nothing, just further making fools of themselves trying to overturn a free and fair election. Rudi at least has the excuse that he is going senile. I still am astounded at all the Republicans that refuse to say anything about the ongoing farce. The Republican party needs to split into 2 parts. One part for the idiot racists who currently back DDT, and the other part for responsible patriotic conservatives (yes, we used to have those). Ivanka is running for her life since she is apparently involved in the tax shenanigans of her father. If she paid taxes on those consulting fees, then it is probably not too bad, but it not, then watch out Ivanka. DDT is attending the G20 summit after saying, “I want to work with them for a long time”. I admit that 60 days feels like a long time, but I do not think that is what he meant. Meanwhile, Biden is setting up his government with cabinet picks and agency heads selecting only well qualified and knowledgeable people. His government should be up and running quickly. What a relief to have someone in the office for whom a lie is not the first thought and where probably not ant thought at all. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

20 November: MASA….Not yet. 61 (10+31+20) days to go. DDT is still trying to invalidate the very valid election in an attempt to bulldoze democracy. He has a game plan for invalidating the election to hold onto the presidency and protect himself from possible criminal proceedings This is how a fascist dictatorship starts. What you are seeing is a person with severe destructive mental problems that are putting the US at risk of losing its democracy and of being the victim of terrorists. The game plan is to try to stop states frm certifying the election thus throwing the choice of electors to the Republican State legislators. This could result in enough chaos that the choice of president cold wind up in the House, which gets one vote per state. The Republicans have fewer representatives, but more states. It is not likely that this ploy will work, but it is disgusting that anyone would even try a plan like this. Georgia is set to certify the election, which will cut off that approach at least for Georgia. Michigan and Wisconsin remain up in the air as far as official certification goes. Rudi G is turning violent on Fox News suggesting that someone should cut the heads off of Democratic leaders. Pence is campaigning in Georgia for the two senate races that will occur this coming January and starting to chart his own future as a possible presidential candidate for 2024. DDT will love that. The latest claim from DDT and associates is that the dead Hugo Chavez in Venezuela has subverted the voting machines in consort with George Soros. Normally, this would be sufficient for mental observation. Yesterday’s CV-19 number of infections was a record until today. Enough. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

19 November: MASA at the Federal level and now in Georgia with the 2 Senate races. 62 (11+31+20) days to go. It’s time to focus on winning a majority in the Senate by winning both races, Ossoff and Warnock, in Georgia. Personally, I am contributing money to both races. It is needed by those campaigns to get the Democratic vote out. The Republicans are pouring money into the effort. However, if you are not from Georgia, stay out of it personally. You do not know the people or the state, and pestering is just one step from a pest. Let Stacy Abrams and crew do the heavy lifting. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/nov/14/georgia-senate-runoff-races-ossoff-warnock-voters. Senator Lindsey Graham is facing ethics charges for his interference in the Georgia presidential election last week. Time to resign Lindsey. It’s hard to believe but DDT’s team is asking Pennsylvania to declare DDT the winner when he is clearly the loser. Plus, DDT is now doing an all-out assault on the legitimacy of the Michigan vote, basically claiming that black people’s vote should not count. Once again we have set another CV-19 record that should hold until tomorrow. Pence gave a useless briefing to the Coronavirus committee today as the virus is surging and neither he nor DDT is doing anything. Sad how this country is being run by a pair of losers. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

18 November: MASA: 63 (12+31+20) days to go. We have now past 250,000 deaths from CV-19 and rising rapidly, while his fatness falsely contests the election and tools around in his golf cart at the US “burns”. The firing of the top cybersecurity official, Chris Krebs, leaves a big hole in our capabilities. The firing was because Krebs dared to say that the election was fair and honest. I cannot wait for the sociopath to be out of the Presidency. Pelosi is the Speaker again for another 2 years hopefully as a Biden ally. Finally, Republican governors are putting in facemask rules to protect the population now that the danger is out of control. In GB, the racist Corbyn has been allowed back into the Labor Party. The Space-X capsule has successfully docked with the space station giving NASA and the US the means to launch its own astronauts after a long break since the shuttle was discontinued. This is a major step for the US and Space-X. Nothing much is happening right this minute aside from all the usual annoyances in the US and around the world. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

17 November: MASA creeps closer. 64 (13+31+20) days to go. The sociopath is almost out of office. I find it incredible that now when the nation is in crisis, and DDT is no longer campaigning for re-election, that he cannot put his personal ego aside and help address the COVID-19 problem. This is truly as his niece said, a man totally absorbed in himself with no real cares for anything or anyone. Meeting a person like this is hard to believe in what you see and hear right in front of you. The nation has had an introduction to what it is like to live with a sociopath every day, a totally debilitating experience. If DDT had won the presidency again, the nightmare would have become really intense. We would have had 4 years of DDT unleashed, not even bound by the small (to him) restrictions of winning an upcoming election. As it is, we will have to suffer for a little over 2 months. Today, the head of Cybersecurity, Chris Krebs, has been fired. Fired for not 100% toeing the DDT party line, thus creating another gaping hole in the US government leadership. His sin. Vouching for the election integrity. The good news is that the unqualified Shelton’s nomination for the Fed is stalled possibly ending her chances. In South Dakota, people dying from CV-19 still do not think the virus is real. What is wrong with the minds of these people. The Georgia recount is almost over and nothing significant has changed. It’s incredible. Mark Suckerberg defended Facebook for not banning Steve Bannon for his remark advocating beheading Dr. Fauci. Perhaps Suckerberg is correct and Bannon should be in jail for threatening another person. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

16 November: MASA we are waiting: 65 (14+31+20) days to go. Nothing much of real importance is happening in the US elections standoff. DDT is still saying NEVER while some of his support is slowly slipping. Not enough slipping to cause him real panic at the moment, but the lack of serious planning for CV-19, for the military, for supporting people who have run out of money, and so on is starting to worry even Republicans. From Yahoo News, “National security adviser Robert O’Brien said Monday morning that it “obviously” looks as if former Vice President Joe Biden has won the presidential election and promised “a very professional transition” with the incoming team at the National Security Council.” This is the first of the administration leaders to acknowledge Biden’s win. Hopefully, more are coming. So far the GSA is holding firm against acknowledging a Biden win. Until that happens, the transition will be only partial in effectiveness. DDT is ordering additional troops out of Afghanistan even though McConnell is advising against such a withdrawal. Interesting internal conflict. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

15 November: MASA soon. 66 (15+31+20) days to go. The insanity of DDT keeps going. Just this evening the jerk tweeted, “I concede nothing”. This is a person that needs to be ignored by the media and thwarted by his so-far spineless Republican enablers. Some Republican governors are finally saying, “enough” it’s time to begin the formal transition. Meanwhile, Biden is repeating the mantra of Obama during his first term, namely hoping to work with Republicans and to stop treating them as the enemy. One hopes that Biden can pull this off by negotiating with the Republican leadership, but he will be facing the “you think I care” McConnell interested only in power. Funny, Obama threw cold water on any idea of serving in a Biden administration with the flip line, “Michelle would leave me”. Probably for the best anyway. The real question is just how much damage will DDT do to the country before leaving office and will he try to pardon himself for crimes committed before and during his presidency. Remember, this is a person of no scruples who thinks only of himself. You can see evidence of this in the fundraising scam he is pulling right now. DDT has a plea out for funds to defend the election, but the fine print clearly says that the money collected can be used to pay off debts, his personal debts. CV-19 is raging out of control with hospitals filled to overcapacity and with medical personnel exhausted and leaving for other posts. I cannot blame them. The US added 1 million new cases this past week. Unbelievable. The CV-19 vaccine creator is saying that life will NOT return to normal anytime soon, but could become closer to normal by next winter. Given the refrigeration problems for this vaccine (-60F), this is not a vaccine for remote areas and certainly not for 3rd world countries. A headline reads, “Worlds largest free-trade agreement signed in a coup for China”. So much for our unbelievable negotiator in chief who has withdrawn the US from everything. DDT is right, he is unbelievable. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

14 November: MASA slowly grinding forward: 67 (16+31+20) days to go. Aside from a huge crowd of DDT supporters marching in front of the White House looking aggrieved because they have lost. Lost unfairly because there are Americans who unfairly voted for Biden. How could they when they could have voted for the lying sniveling incompetent idiot currently living in the White House? Sorry, DDT, it is all unraveling right in front of your nose. Your fatness will soon have to retreat to your own golden rooms with your tax returns revealed and the tax and bank fraud there for everyone to see. Of course, you are so rich that you will not mind repaying the personally guaranteed 400-million-dollar loan about to come due as well as another 100 million in tax penalties and God knows what for bank fraud penalties that may be assessed. Worry not DDT, you will not be homeless loose on the streets but should qualify for public housing and new orange clothes. Will I miss the loser that has almost single-handedly undone the democracy that we all took for granted? The answer is no. But I suspect that DDT will still be on the scene in some cable TV show or network still trying to unravel his rejection. Republicans will still quake in fear of his base undermining their chances in primaries. It would take courage to complete an idiot tyrant’s rejection. The march today did turn a little violent when counter-protesters showed up, so I cannot blame the Trumpsters. CV-19 case numbers continue to accelerate in a geometric progression towards a medical disaster. Even some diehard Republican governors are starting to see the headlights of an oncoming train wreck and considering restrictions on public gatherings and encouragement to wear face masks. The vaccine is still nearly a year off from wide application. Way to go. A judge has ruled that the suspension of DACA is illegal and as a side issue that the head of Homeland Security is in his office illegally. In less than two months, this will be moot, since there will be a new head of Homeland Security and DACA will be restored by Biden. Another victory for DDT. Asian Pacific countries have just signed an agreement forming the largest free trading bloc that does not include the US. China is elated and part of that agreement to the detriment of the US. Our master negotiator has elevated failure to a new high. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

 

13 November: MASA keeps growing: 68 (17+31+20) days to go. You can see the seeds of sanity starting to bloom in the selection of Biden staff members based on competency and integrity. I was listening to an interview with a member of Biden’s CV-19 committee. The clarity and honesty were refreshing, especially coming from an obviously experienced expert who expressed humbleness for the task ahead. The transition from the liar and egotist, DDT, is jarring. This past week was so unusual during the past 4 years in that there was silence from DDT until today. DDT gave a press conference, which was pretty much like all his other utterances, empty complaining. As time has been passing, you can feel the air going out of DDT’s hot air balloon. It’s a small hiss for now, but it will get louder until there is a final pop. There is no question but that we are living in interesting times. I learned something today. That statement about interesting times is often referenced to a non-existent Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times”. But, no. It comes from a speech by Robert Kennedy given in Cape Town, South Africa in 1966 with some traceback, not literally, to some speeches given in England at the turn of the 20th century. So much for popular “knowledge”. The pandemic screams on with hospitals overcrowded especially in midwestern states. We are up to 160,000 new cases in a day today with the death rate also rising. The German developed Pfizer RNA vaccine is coming along and should be available, but not until late in 2021. The Pfizer vaccine is not suitable for 3rd world countries because of the refrigeration problem (-60 degrees). There are other vaccines coming that do not require such extreme storage requirements. DDT stuck his ugly finger in the mix again saying that New York will be last to get the vaccine because of Governor Cuomo’s disagreement with him. Of course, this will not actually happen because the idiot will no longer be in control. It is so disturbing that the Supreme Court Justice Alito said in an overtly political talk to the Federalist Society, “Pandemic Has ‘Resulted in Previously Unimaginable Restrictions on Individual Liberty”. Finally, China has sent congratulations to Biden on his victory. We are still waiting on Putin and the N. Korean despot Kim Jong Un. BOJO (Boris Johnson) is holding his political breath with Biden’s victory since he was banking on a DDT special trade agreement to offset Brexit. We’ll see. It may be that England no longer “punches” above its weight. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

12 November: MASA MASA MASA 69 (18+31+20) days to go. I did write a blog for the 12th, but apparently never saved it. It was a short one since nothing much happened that was new. It was all about DDT's silence and the potential security risk he is causing. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

11 November: MASA creeps closer. 70 (19+31+20) days to go. The idiot in Chief is till delaying the transition hoping some cheating angle occurs to him before it is too late. DDT has now packed the military with civilian “yessirs”. A little way anyone? Biden is slowly staffing up his administration. A strange set of people indeed the like of which we haven’t seen in a long while, people who know what they are doing for the country. Mask orders are on the horizon in many states across the US as the pandemic grows out of control with stupid in charge. It is ominously quiet on the DDT front. I guess we’ll just have to wait and hope that the people with real power show restraint. More when something real happens. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

10 November: MASA still in a holding pattern 71 (20+31+20) days to go. It is getting embarrassing that DDT will not concede (Biden say the same). The problem is that by not conceding DDT is holding up the transition and putting the country at risk. At the same time, he has removed Esper, the Secretary of Defense, because he would not authorize using military troops against the general population. He has replaced Esper with a man of no real experience, but perhaps greater persona loyalty. Watch out America. Hopefully, the generals will not follow unlawful orders from the ”New Guy” (name not important). The Undersecretary of Defense for Policy has resigned after the firing of Esper. The defense situation could get touchy. It appears at this moment that the Supreme Court will leave Obama Care (ACA) intact with Roberts saying that striking down the ACA in not our job. Let’s see what the new Justice does. The news is filled with stories about 2024 with DDT possibly running again and with Biden running again. This is way too soon to be talking about such stuff. The one thing that is probably true is that DDT will not behave as other presidents have after leaving office. DDT will probably snipe and campaign during the ensuing four years. Of course, we will have to put up with the clown show in the courts for the next several weeks. Sad even for a loser. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts. Let's see those tax returns.

9 November: MASA in a holding pattern 72 (21+31+20) days to go. Nothing much has happened, so I will skip the obvious. Basically, Biden is assembling a transition team, a CV-19 advisory panel, is going to rejoin the Paris Climate agreement,  will revisit the Iran nuclear agreement, will reach out to NATO and our other allies, and will try to get cooperation from Republicans. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

8 November: MASA coming soon to a place near you. 73 (22+31+20) days to go until DDT needs a new place to stay. The institutions of this country need to be strengthened against an autocrat like DDT. Next time the violator of all the rules and norms of a democratic society may not be so stupid. In fact, if it were not for the CV-19 pandemic and his idiotic mishandling, even this ill-informed mal-intentioned would-be dictator would have won the election. It was that close. Even now, DDT is trying to pull a political coup of sorts through the courts trying to get his handpicked Supreme Court to somehow nullify the election results. It is entirely possible that he could confuse the election counts and get the election thrown into the House where the Republicans hold a majority of the states (to pick a president, the House gets one vote per state). There are numerous devious ways that the election could be overturned by a person that does not believe in democracy and elections. This is no joke. Next will come street demonstrations by his right-wing supporters, some armed, that will cause chaos. The one thing we probably know for sure is that DDT is not going to gracefully admit defeat especially with the Republican party in his thrall. There is little we can do at this point except trust the remaining institutions that underpin our democracy including the ethics of the Supreme Court Justices. Then there is the havoc that DDT can cause in his remaining 73 days as President. For example, firing senior civil servants, changing once again the leadership of the cabinet agencies and packing it with even more pliable toadies, totally withdrawing from Afghanistan and the Iraqi embassy, withdrawing further from NATO, or starting a war. 74 days is a long time to cause irreparable harm. Some of his executive orders will be hard to undo, especially the ones that relate to the environment. This is because some licenses have already been paid for and granted and because the courts are likely now to favor industry over the general welfare of the country. It’s a dangerous time. The best remedy lies in Georgia and the two contested Senate races. If Democrats win one or both, then the country stands a chance of recovery without the obstructionist McConnell at the helm. As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

7 November: MASA in 74 days but celebrate now. The long reign of error is almost over. Of course DDT rages on refusing to concede gracefully as is the tradition in the US. No, we are going to be treated to a fusillade of numbing lawsuits over trivialities and a transition that is useless on one hand and antagonistic on the other. Hopefully we can reemerge on the world stage with some of the respect the US formerly had. The rest will have to be earned in a world recently tarnished by the lack of constructive involvement helping our allies. I cannot imagine the anger and frustration of DDT, a man who must be adulated in order to exist. However, be warned at DDT’s tendency for revenge with 74 days to go. All over the country celebrations of sanity are taking place. Hope is reborn and sanity is again possible. The following with abject apologies to Poe. Once upon a November dreary, while I pondered, bleak and teary, Over many a rant of old and curious volume of unspeakable bore. While I nodded, never napping, suddenly there came a furious rapping. As of someone openly crapping, crapping on my living room floor. Tis some imposter, muttered I, crapping on my living room floor. Only this and nothing more. Here I stand with a nutter, when, with many a flirt and mutter, stepped a raging craven of recent days so poor; Not the least notice made he; not a minute smiled or me acknowledged. But, with look of a lord so shady, perched above my living room floor. Perched upon my celling light just above my living room floor. Perched, and sat, muttered only this and nothing more. Then this bony bird forced my mad fancy into smiling. By the lack of ordinary decorum for the lewd countenance it wore. Though your orange hair be shorn and shaven, thou,” I said, are surely a craven, Ghastly grim the ancient craven wandering from the swamps muddy shore. Tell me what new name for you is on this night’s victorious shore! Said the craven, “Nevermore.” Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my floor!” said the craven “Nevermore.” As for DDT, we have almost thrown out the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

6 November: MASA is my prediction. 75 more days of insanity (including 20 Jan) . My prediction is that as of tonight Pennsylvania will be for Biden and it is game over for DDT. Then comes the DDT revenge with 74 days to do it. Even Republicans are telling him to back off the lies. What will he do? Resign and get Pence to pardon him. That would be rich. Of course, there are still the NY state charges. Looks like DDT will lose his special treatment on Twitter if he loses the election. At this point, Biden is gearing up for a transition. It cannot come soon enough. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

5 November: MASA cannot be soon enough: 75 days of insanity to go until 20 Jan. Tonight the race for president is alarmingly close with Biden closing in on the 270 votes he needs. It is coming down to Arizona, Pennsylvania, and possibly Georgia. Anyone of these will put Biden over the top. The orange one is quaking in his socks. There is not much to say this evening. By tomorrow we should know the outcome. There is still the possibility of a 50 50 tie in the Senate, but just a possibility. In the House, Democrats have lost some of their majority, which is not good. That’s it for tonight. Oh yes, DDT called a press conference and lied so blatantly that the networks cut away. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

 

4 November: masa sigh: 76 days to go (until 20 January 2021) It’s all over except for counting the dregs, with the dregs determining whether it’s MASA or 4 more years of insanity. Mostly, I am disappointed by the sheer number of people that can be taken in by a scam, a scam that is nothing more than a TV comedy-reality show starring DDT. As of this writing, Biden just needs 6 more electoral college votes to reach 270 so that he will be president. Of course, DDT will mount useless legal challenges to what appears to be an entirely clean election. By Friday we should know for sure about Biden’s’ win. What is disappointing is that the democrats will not have control of the senate again and that McConnell will be the dastard he has shown himself to be. DDT proclaimed victory last night and is trying to stop vote counting. His victory claim is just like his CV-19 claim, false from the start. We are rounding a corner, worse for CV-19 and better for Biden. Get the bum out of the white house and into the courts. An orange jumpsuit will look great with that complexion. I guess in DDT, we have had the first president of color, orange. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only). We have about 2 more months of insanity in the White House and then DDT can face his future in the courts.

3 November: MASA: Zero days to go: Not going to write much of anything tonight, election night. Nothing will be known until tomorrow, if then. So, go soft into election night and dream good dreams. Perchance to wake tomorrow into a better world.

2 November: MASA …getting scary as the clock counts down. One day to go. If you listen to DDT he is going to be much worse in a second term than he ever was in his first term. This is a man who will destroy the country and our system of government is a combination of ignorance and fits of revenge. Vote tomorrow and get rid of one of the worst presidents in the history of the US. He is ranking up there with Jackson and Johnson-1 (the president after Lincoln). I listen to people who claim to be voting for DDT and all I hear is greed. Even that is misplaced. On the economy, he has screwed up big time. Manufacturing has not come back. Jobs have not come back, partly because of a screw up on COVID-19. His current fit of pique about firing Fauci is typical. Disagree with DDT and he will take revenge even if you are right. Right now, there is some fear in the country about possible violence if DDT loses. Businesses are boarding up windows and people are buying guns. This is not how America is supposed to be. With Biden, you will get a return to government helping people with a Justice Department that is exactly what the name suggests, and court appointments that for qualified judges. We will also get out of running up deficits by getting the rich and corporations to pay a fair share. Most of us will pay nothing extra unless you earn over $400,000, in which case you can afford a little increase in tax. Get out there a vote tomorrow. Vote for what you know is right. Vote for the United States of America. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

1 November 2020: MASA this month. Finally, just 2 days to go, 1 and 2. DDT is getting crazier and crazier. He is not talking about declaring victory on Tuesday night. The votes will not even have been counted. However, I put nothing past him. As usual, as you get closer to election day (Tuesday) the polls get fuzzy. Meanwhile, the “campaigns” go on. At this point, it is just motion for no real purpose. CV-19 keeps ticking upwards, more cases and more deaths, many because of a do-nothing president. One of the Washington Post editorials attempted to do an apology for DDT and to show that he made real accomplishments (BS) that were good for the US, Marc Thiessen (If you turned the sound off…). My conclusion after reading it was that if you stick your head in the sand, it is smart to keep your mouth shut. If DDT wins, you can kiss goodbye a lot of what we now take for granted in our democracy. Just the proposed changes to the civil service rules will be enough to destabilize the government. Giving DDT the power to fire career civil servants that have a working knowledge that happens to disagree with an ignorant self-serving president is frightening. Vote Tuesday and vote for Biden and vote for a democratic senate (get rid of Moscow Mitch). As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

31 October: MASA approaching. Only 3 days to go 31,1,2 and it’s over (I hope). Then 2 months and DDT is history (I hope). Of course, in the final 2 months all restraint will be off and who knows what evil lurks in the mind of DDT. Revenge is big in his books, certainly not a graceful exit from power into the courtroom. If this election is close, even relatively close, DDT will contest it for his benefit not that of the country (remember Bush vs Gore, where Gore was graceful). The White House staff and political appointees are bracing for disaster. For some of them, it is all over. Who wants a liar in their business? Of course, there is always the 2024 campaign ahead. This time, one can hope that the Republicans will select someone for whom the truth has meaning. There’s not much happening right now, except the accelerating spread of CV-19. Europe, which is a few weeks ahead of the US in weather and CV-19, is entering lockdown territory. Austria is in lockdown as are parts of France and Italy. France is experiencing traffic jams as people flee the cities for the countryside. The mid-west is about to get slapped by a heavy storm with cold weather and snow, especially Michigan. Will it be gone by 3 November? And, the murder bees are coming. A sort of zombie apocalypse. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

30 October: MASA, one can only hope. 4 days to go, 30, 31, 1, 2, and the US can go about the business of being the country of hope and opportunity again for everyone, not just the rich. Biden has a big lead going into the last 4 days with hints that DDT might be closing the gap a little. Don’t take the polling lead for granted. With the disproportionate electoral college, a few swing states can throw the election against the popular vote even if the margin is large. So, get out and vote in person in 3 November if you have not already done so. Vote against tyranny and prejudice, vote for working together. The corner continues to be rounded in a bad way with the number of cases skyrocketing and the number of deaths increasing at about 1000 per day. DDT jr says not to worry, the numbers are insignificant. Not to me they aren’t, with over 230,000 deaths and rising. Perhaps DDT jr needs a little time in a hospital as a patient to gain some humanity and humility. Florida is playing games again with the signature identifying game, rejecting over 30,000 ballots because the signatures do not exactly match. My signature does not match day-to-day or document-to-document even if generally similar. Interestingly, the early voting in Texas exceeds the entire 2016 vote. Perhaps Texas will shift from red to blue. DDT is now telling the Supreme Court that they are literally on his reelection team. The man knows no shame. On the foreign front, there is a major problem brewing in France with Turkey encouraging the terrorists starting with the beheading of a teacher in France who was discussing free speech rights. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

29 October: MASA since October is almost over, finally. Only 5 days to go (29, 30, 31, 1, 2). As of today, Biden is ahead even in Florida. A good sign? Five long days to wait for the big poll, the only one that counts on 3 November. DDT is counting on a “Hail Mary” throw into the endzone or some horrible last-minute play by his captive Justice Department. Recently, DDT has been fuming at the AG Barr for not starting investigations of Biden and his family and at the head of the FBI for the same reason. The Supreme Court has issued a bunch of state by state election decisions that leaves everything confusing and open for post-election lawsuits, which is what DDT may be counting on to reverse his election loss to Biden. Meanwhile, CV-19 infections and deaths are hitting record highs as DDT says we are rounding the corner. According to DDT, “believe me don’t believe what you are seeing”. Just because hospitalizations and deaths are increasing rapidly, that doesn’t mean that CV-19 is getting worse. If we just quit testing, all those deaths from CV-19 would go away. Just like us having the best economy as it implodes around us. And your retirement fund is not the best ever, it’s dropping like a rock. We need to flip the presidency and the senate and get Biden to propose legislation that will start to right the ship of state, fix our relations with our allies, and hold our enemies in check. The good news is that DDT could face an avalanche of legal problems when he loses, and he knows it. Orange will be the new Black. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

28 October: MASA with Biden: 6 days left (28, 29, 30, 31, 1, 2) and counting. It’s hard to believe but I just heard pieces of DDT rallies saying the CV-19 is under control and going away as the reality is that CV-19 is accelerating to the point where many areas in the US will have to go under lockdown to avoid the European resurgence of CV-19. The US is in danger, a mortal danger to a large number of our citizens. DDT lies and lies, many of which are unimportant self-serving lies, and then there are those that destroy democracy and those that kill people. He is guilty of both, sort of treason and murder, not legally, but ethically. The idiot left his followers freezing in the cold with no plan in place to get people back to their cars in Omaha. It’s more of the same, no plan, who cares. Biden appears to be leading in the polls and should win, but remembering 2016, one cannot take a win for granted until all the votes are counted and deemed counted. Once again there is civil unrest over the shooting of a black man, this time brandishing a knife. The question is why so many shots and why shoot to kill. The police need to be retrained to shoot at legs, especially when there is no gun present, or not shoot at all if no one is being endangered. We have a conflict brewing in Europe between Turkey and France and between Turkey and Russia, the former over cartoons and the latter over a proxy war in Armenia-Azerbaijan. The war could turn really hot in a flash. Just what the world needs. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

27 October: MASA. 7 days to go. I must admit it is increasingly hard to write the same words about the idiot in the White House. Nothing changes. The outrages continue and will continue until DDT is out of office. Then we will read headlines about his criminal activities based on financial cheating.

================================================================

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump                     PINO = President in Name Only

MASA = Make America Sane again         h.a. = Horse's A--

TBO = Throw the Bum Out

26 October: MASA please..can’t stand it anymore. Only 8 long days to go. Texas looks totally uncertain but close. Could go either way. DDT is going after “Sleepy Joe”, which is not working. The one who should be examined for dysfunction is DDT. Let’s hope that DDT gets a bruising in this election. His behavior has been so egregious. DDT’s pout on the 60-minutes TV show was classic, picking an ill-mannered fight with the interviewer Leslie Stahl over the statement did he mind if Stahl asked him “hard” questions. The problem was that she was fact-checking him in real-time. You have to watch it to believe it. Hard to believe it, but 59 million people have already voted. Now we need more democrats to really come out. Kushner just “dissed” black Americans saying the only thing standing in the way of blacks is they have to want to be successful. The big thing in the election is winning the Senate, especially getting rid of Lindsey Graham and McConnell (not too likely, but one can hope). Enough tonight. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

25 October: MASA, we are slowly getting there. 9 days to go. Even though exposed to CV-19, Pence is insisting on being in the senate for the vote on Barrett. This is typical of the irresponsible administration not giving a damn for anyone else. The White House finally admitted their policy “we are not going to control the pandemic”. In other words, you suckers and losers get sick and die, there are more where you came from. Polls indicate the Biden leads in Texas. Texas? Wow! Perhaps in the state government also. Republicans down the drain. The TV program 60 minutes was pretty neat tonight with Biden being asked tough questions and answering them quite well and quite calmly. DDT , on the other hand, was bristly and evasive, and finally walked out in a snit. The clown is going down. DDT is out doing rallies with an empty head throwing false statements to get his crown excited and yelling. This time the circus will not work to get him elected. Some Hispanics of Cuban origin are disappointing. They escaped a dictatorship and came to the US but are supporting a would-be dictator that is eroding the freedoms they came here to enjoy. They are doing this on the false assumption that DDT will be good for the economy and good for their bank accounts when the opposite is true. DDT inherited a growing economy from Obama, fed it sugar (borrowed money), and got a very temporary high. That high is now gone with a combination of mismanagement and CV-19. Keep up this path and the economy will crash. Hopefully, we will be spared four more years of a would-be despot that has eroded our allies and plays footsie with the thugs in Russia, China, and N Korea. The US is increasingly isolated in ineffectual under DDT and the ”Art of the Steal”. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

24 October: MASA MASA. Only 10 days to go Tick Tock. Jill Biden is hitting the campaign trail very effectively. And, where’s Melania, answer, nowhere to be seen. This race is going down to the wire with record voter turnout that seems to be favoring Democrats. Of course, one can always worry about a last-minute voter surprise or some underhanded maneuver to invalidate the election. By 3 November, the Supreme court will have another right-wing judge, so who knows what could happen. There us a good chance that Texas will go Democratic with the current huge turnout, both nationally and at the state level. This should terrify Republicans if it happens. DDT is still the super spreader in chief with his huge unprotected rallies. The good thing is you know who is getting sick from these things, DDT followers first and the rest of us from just watching TV. Bad news, the Alaska senator, Murkowski, has said she is voting for Barrett. So there goes any hope of derailing a potential tragedy for women and civil liberties. Once again DDT is right, we are rounding a corner in the CV-19 pandemic. The only problem is he got the wrong corner. We are rounding the corner into a death spiral, not into the light. The fighting goes on between Armenia and Azerbaijan even with US mediation. Perhaps Armenia should spend more time at a DDT hotel. The dictator to be, Duda, in Poland, has tested positive for CV-19. He joins an illustrious crew. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

23 October: MASA and counting to 230,000. 11 more days to go. Fauci told that DDT has not attended CV-19 task force in months. This is probably why he knows nothing about what is going on except for the BS he makes up on the spot. He did more than 57 lies during the debate that have been called out. It was pure prevarication from start to finish. He started out ok, when he said hello. It was downhill after that. The FBI is investigating the Hunter Biden mess as they should. Tony Bobulinski will sit for interviews with the FBI. It is pretty clear that Hunter was a mess. It is also clear that Joe Biden was not involved. Something happened to McConnell. He came in with bruised face and hands as if he had gotten into a fight with someone or is seriously ill. Rudy G’s encounter with Borat did not go well. He was caught with his pants down almost. Borat is now quoted, “He'll reach into his legal briefs and whip out his subpoenas”. Finally, a court in Pa has made sense over the requirement that signatures on ballots match prior signatures even if those signatures were made on a computer screen instead of paper. They rejected the requirements that the signatures match. That’s good, since my signature varies from time to time. DDT is off holding unprotected rallies arranging for some of his followers to die and the rest to have their brains destroyed listening to the loser fool. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

22 October: MASA and can we have sanity during the “great last debate” between DDT and the future President of the United States, Joe Biden. 12 days to go. It’s the longest 12 days with 47 million people who have already voted. This is amazing for early voting. The prediction is a strong attack on Biden about Hunter Biden. I’ve been listening to a series of lies and exaggerations from DDT coupled with personal attacks. At least Biden has talked plainly and clearly about issues. There is not much to say about this debate except vote for Biden. DDT has made it his talking about the fact that Obama and Biden were not able to get things done with a Republican congress that blocked everything. Basically. DDT is talking to his base. Does talk more than Biden, yes. Does DDT have creative thoughts that mean anything, NO! The fate of our country and democracy is on the line. Vote for Biden. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

21 October: MASA getting closer. Just 13 days to go. However, chaos tomorrow when we have what is purported to be a debate. DDT has been advised to let Biden speak and tangle himself (not likely), but knowing DDT, he will not be able to keep that big mouth shut. Go for it dummy. Finally, Obama has returned to the campaign trail and gave a really good speech roasting our “dear leader” and telling us what we already knew, that Biden is sharp and decent. Get out and vote. Swamp the DDTites. As with 2016, Russia and Iran are interfering in the election using voter registration info to cause confusion. This time it won’t work. A story I heard is that some diehard Bernie supporters are going to sit out the 2020 election in a fit of spite. If we get DDT again because of them, then they might as well have voted for DDT. Shame on them. DDT’s White House is saying that migrant parents declined to accept their kids back. How stupid do you think we are? Or how stupid are you? Hunter Biden is going to be a topic during the debate. I suspect that Joe Biden had nothing to do with his son’s activities, but even the pictures of Hunter in a drug stupor are ugly. The main this is we are voting for Joe, not Hunter who is just a sad footnote in Joe Biden’s life. Purdue Pharma has pleaded guilty in the Oxycontin case to the tune of 8 billion dollars. Sounds big but it is just pocket change compared to the profits made by Purdue and the Sackler family. Worst of all, at least for now, no one is going to jail. It seems that DDT has a large bank account in China that could be a national security issue. It never stops with DDT, the man himself is a national security issue. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

20 October: MASA is approaching rapidly. 14 days to go. If DDT loses, then the real madness starts until 20 Jan 2021. It could be in a book titled, “DDT Unhinged”, “Barbarian At Your Front Door”, “Revenge for Dummies”, “A Guide to Countries Without Extradition”, “But BoJo, I Supported You”, “Rootin for Putin”, “I Finally Drained the Swamp”, “Lock him Up”, “Fake President”, “How Bad Could it Get”, “I Ain’t Leaving”, and “What COVID, Cough Cough”. Meanwhile, there is a hint that the administration is getting serious about getting a relief package out of the door. However, there is a big fat tub of lard in the way, Moscow Mitch, who is saying “no such much-needed bill will pass this Senate while I’m in charge”. Scary, polls are showing a narrowing lead by Biden. What squirrel holes are all these nuts coming from? C’mon guys, get out there and vote the bum out. 34 million have voted so far, an enormous record two weeks from election day. Giuliani is nuts. He wants the American people to see the likely fake emails “Americans are entitled to know it even if not accurate”. DDT is asking for a special prosecutor to investigate Hunter Biden before election day. Vaccine tests are getting serious. Britain is planning to purposely infect vaccine receivers with CV-19 to test the effectiveness of the vaccine. Hope it works for a set of brave people. Oh yes, the final debate between Biden and DDT is set for tomorrow, Thursday. Listen if you have the intestinal fortitude to put up with DDT’s badgering. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

19 October: MASA vote for Biden: 15 long days to go. We’ve rounded the corner getting to the election. Tomorrow will be just 2 weeks to go. I heard short pieces of DDT’s rallies and it is much worse than anything reported in the press. From raging at Fauci (a disaster) to calling the press “bastards”. The man is insane. The only good thing is so far, he has only killed 220,000 people and injured many more, but it is much better than if he got into a major war with nuclear weapons. So, in that sense, he has handled the pandemic really well. In his own words, if not for his forceful policy, millions could be dead. Of course, there are still 3 months of his presidency when he can do almost anything. If he loses in November, watch out. You may be the subject of his revenge. I am not joking. DDT is dangerous when he is not constrained by anything. His whole life has been like that, revenge. I hope the following is true. “Debate Commission adopts new rules to mute mics to allow Trump and Biden 2 minutes of uninterrupted time per topic.” Texas is now allowed to reject ballots on an undefined process of matching signatures on ballots with those on record. I do not know about you, but my signature changes somewhat from time to time depending on how tired I am or the angle my hand happens to make with the paper, for example, standing up vs sitting down. In the world, we are in potentially dangerous situations with N Korea, China, ISIS in Africa, Russia, and Turkey, and we are increasingly isolated from allies. This is a very unfunny situation. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

18 October: MASA for most of us. Just get out and vote. 16 days left to give DDT a political black eye. Pelosi has laid down the gauntlet by giving DDT 48 hours to agree to a stimulus bill before the election. According to the news, the senate is busy passing a small stimulus bill that will go nowhere, since it is both small and contains poison pill language that the House will never accept. Oh no. Bannon says that DDT will run again in 2024 if he loses now to Joe Biden now. That will be a loser race for him. People will not forget the clown. The clown that could not and would not manage the CV-19 pandemic in the US is now facing a rapid increase in cases and deaths, especially in the mid-west and, of course, the east. Fauci was on the 60 minutes TV show tonight and sounded like the voice of calm reason. When asked if we should be heading into another shutdown, he said no, unless the situation turns much worse than now. Just wear masks and keeps a good social distance. I like him. Fauci is a very plain speaker that does not dodge hard questions. DDT must be spinning in his swivel chair. France is in an uproar over the beheading of a teacher for showing and discussing the use of caricatures of Mohammed. This is a teacher that let Muslim students leave the class so as not to offend them. Belarus is still in turmoil over a stolen election by a dictator that has been in power for a long time. The question here is whether Russia, next door, will intervene. Russia already has enough trouble on its border with Armenia and Azerbaijan without getting mixed up in Belarus. And, of course, DDT is totally absent. Navalny was also on 60 Minutes tonight pointing out Europe is sanctioning Putin and the people around Putin for the poisoning. And, of course, DDT is totally absent. If the absence is leadership, then we are surely lucky to have an absent leader. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

16 and 17 October: MASA MASA MASA, got to have sanity again. 17 days to go.I admit it. I missed last night. An outrageous dereliction of duty brought on by severe DDT fatigue. I’ve heard all the lies and abuse, and there is nothing new there. Well, not quite. DDT threatened to leave the country if he loses to Joe Biden (the worst presidential candidate ever in US history, according to DDT). In reality, he might leave the US to avoid prosecution, which is almost certainly coming after he loses. It is pathetic now, he is campaigning and trying to sound confident all the while slipping further and further behind. The same seems to be happening in the Senate caused by McConnell’s stubbornness towards passing a CV stimulus bill without corporate gotchas and discretionary spending provisions for DDT. He’s back with the ”lock her up” chants (to Whitmer) when it should be “Lock him up” for bank and tax fraud. The clown show just never stops. One of Kentucky’s largest newspapers just endorsed McConnell’s challenger. I hope he loses. The confirmation of Amy Barrett to the Supreme Court is a near certainty. With her, one should watch for loss of essential freedoms, especially for women. This 6 to 3 supermajority of conservatives could be really bad for the nation. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

15 October: MASA is evident in the Biden Town Hall: 19 days to go, tick tock. I’m sitting here watching the Biden Town Hall with the result that Biden comes across as a sensible reasonable candidate for president. This contrasts with the bombastic liar DDT. It is true that I am not watching the clown perform on the other network. Why bother when it is just going to be more of the same set of lies and BS that I have heard for the past 4 years. Biden has come out for limiting the pollution that comes from fracking, not fracking itself, but also promoting renewable energy without going to the absurdity of the “Green New Deal”. It’s one thing to aspire to goals, and another thing to try to force goals that are not possible without severe economic consequences. The bottom line in all this is Biden will make a good president for all of us and reestablish our position of respect in the world. While DDT argues that CV-19 is fading, the reality is that CV-19 is expanding and becoming a second wave. Unfortunately, DDT will be president until January 19 when the 2nd wave will be in full swing. Joblessness is increasing with McConnell and DDT unable to agree on a plan to help everyone in need that has been passed by the House. We’ve has enough of the evil clown. In contrast to Biden, when DDT was asked about his medical plan all he could come up with that he repealed the mandate. DDT avoided every answer that involved facts. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

14 October: MASA with less than 3 weeks. 20 days and counting. The Oracle has spoken, DDT is flailing in a losing campaign now 17 points behind Biden with his campaign getting desperate putting a competing town hall at the same time as Biden’s. More people will probably watch the clown than a serious presidential candidate, but it will not change anything. DDT is even now behind in Georgia. Amy Barrett showed true colors when refusing to offer an opinion on whether climate change is real. She can afford to do this since her confirmation is certain by the rubber-stamp Republicans. Pelosi and Mnuchin are still sparring over CV-19 relief. It’s a stupid game the Republicans are playing, cutting their own political throats. Poor California. More power shutoffs are planned across the state. Time to leave guys. If you work for DDT. Do not turn your back for a single second. DDT is mad a Barr and now declines to say whether he will bring him back as AG if he wins. What a friend. Nice. Europe is now experiencing a second CV-19 wave and closing down in defense. Is the US next? The really bad news is China’s Xi telling the military to prepare for war. This is scary, especially with DDT still in charge. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

13 October: MASA soon. 21 more days to go. Guess what? Today is a miracle day. All three stock indices (DOW, NASDAQ, and S&P) were 0.00%. I have never seen that before. Must be an omen, if you believe in that kind of thing. As with all omens, we need the oracle at Delphi to figure out whether it is good or bad and for whom. Amy Barrett’s 4-day meaningless confirmation hearing grinds on with little information exchanged. The biggest effect it should have is to alarm women about a possible degradation of their rights and increase the democratic vote for Biden and a Democrat-controlled Senate. If you don’t come out and vote overwhelmingly for Biden and Democrats you are screwed (to use the technical term). The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of DDT and let the census count end early leading to an undercount of the poor and undocumented people. This will affect states with large numbers of poor getting less federal support and less representation in the House. Biden is currently leading by 17 points, while DDT is promising to kiss anyone at the campaign rally by downplaying the risk of CV-19. McConnell in his campaign debate with Amy McGrath laughed when she slammed his CV-19 stimulus “dereliction”. Too bad it won’t laugh him right out of his seat in the Senate. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

12 October: MASA only 22 days away. Down with DDT. The futile questioning of Amy Barrett has begun as she was sworn in by the Senate. Since her qualifications are obvious and positive, the questioning of her motives is a waste of time. Since no scandal is going to appear, and the Republican majority will confirm her, it is best not to go after her in any personal way. DDT has tested negative and also appears to be virus-free. Now to get rid of him the political way through the BIG poll on 3 November. DDT has canceled TV ads in key states as Joe Biden dominates the airwaves with many ads. Hope it helps. In California, the DDT stalwarts have set up unauthorized ballot drop boxes across California. Someone needs a bit of jail time for this one. The state is doing its best to clear up the confusion and only have official drop boxes. It is a simple play by the Republicans to cause fraud so they can later claim fraud. Glad they got caught. DDT is pushing to hold many events per day in the runup to the election. With his erratic nature, it will probably hurt not help in at the polls. This is going to be uncontrolled vitriol. Remember back in 2016 when DDT promised new jobs, the best and most jobs anyone has created. Well, guess what? It has not happened and it is not CV-19 that has made the promised jobs vanish. It’s not magic either, just poor negotiating. An example is the disappearance of the FOXCONN jobs in Wisconsin. Lots of promises from Foxconn and promised subsidies (now withdrawn), but no jobs. Some bad news. It looks like the CV-19 virus can survive almost a month on banknotes and it is possible to get CV-19 more than once. So much for a vaccine that is effective on a large scale. I hope I am wrong. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

11 October: MASA is in view now. 23 days to go. Don’t hold your breath, pant pant. DDT is preparing to hold mass rallies with the idea of getting as many Republicans as possible infected with COVID or nutcase ideas or both. More scandal is brewing. According to the NYT,” more than 200 companies, special-interest groups and foreign governments had patronized Mr. Trump’s properties, funneling in millions of dollars, while reaping benefits from him and his administration.” Dr. DDT has declared himself immune from CV-19. Is this based on his deep medical knowledge or is he hearing voices again? Must be the steroids. Dr. Fauci strongly disagreed. Jamie Harrison has raised a record $57 million to unseat Lindsey Graham. One can hope that the spineless Graham is gone. The son of DDT, DET gave a rambling interview on his father getting cured by his own vaccine. The problem is that there is no vaccine and DET (Eric) seems not to know that simple fact. Meanwhile, in the news, infections from the Corona Virus are rising again sharply as deaths also rise in the US and worldwide. The real question is what is going to happen as the weather turns really cold this winter? As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

10 October: MASA soon, please. 24 days to go. Today is just more of the same. DDT starting to campaign with no clear guidance as to whether he can infect people. Going for rallies instead of taking part in the now cancelled debate safely. What else would you expect. Republicans are trying to shift the focus from the economy and CV-19 to religion based in part on the nomination of Amy Barrett to the Supreme Court. And it goes on like this. Nothing much really new on this Saturday. On a light note, “One woman stormed into a Target, hunted for her fiancé in a bride's dress and demanded his hand in marriage ... it's now or never." With DDT, it should be never. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

9 October: MASA getting closer. 25 days to go. Tick Tock Tick Tock, The 2nd presidential debate has been canceled because DDT does not want to have a remote debate where he cannot interrupt and speak over Biden. Good riddance to bluster. DDT is heading to Florida for a rally this coming Monday. Go ahead and infect more Republicans. Poor guys. Fauci called as he sees it. He called the DDT Rose Garden event a super-spreader event. Good conspiracy theory. DDT and minions are spreading the lie that Pelosi’s attempt to activate the permanent council om presidential fitness is really a plot to oust Biden so that Harris can take his place. Good try DDT. DDT after treatment is extra orange to cover up his faded complexion, cough cough. Good, Ted Cruz is worried that it might be a GOP rout on election day. I hope he is right. OMG. Pompeo is expecting more Clinton emails to be released just before Nov 3 to help win the election in 2016. Secret, Mike, Clinton is not running for President. The bad thing is that worldwide and in the US CV-19 is spiking upwards. Bodes ill for the hospitals and the economy. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

8 October: MASA is not far away now. 26 days left Tick Tock Tick Tock. The fly on Pence’s head is a riot. How could he not notice? A numb head? It did not stop the lies, only a massive loss at the polls will put a stop to this. Pelosi is thinking of implementing part of the 25th amendment by forming a committee to assess the viability of DDT to be president after he has had the CV-19 treatment, which apparently affects one’s ability to think rationally (already a weak point). From the Guardian, “Pelosi questions Trump's mental state and says Congress will discuss rules for removal”. His tweets today were a mess even by DDT standards. Hard to believe, a militia group plotted to kidnap the Michigan governor and try her for treason in another state because they did not like the CV-19 shutdown to save lives. These people are dangerous. Meanwhile, Biden’s lead grows. The non-partisan debate committee has ruled that the 2nd debate be held remotely. Biden is OK with that and will show up. DDT says, no way. He is not showing up. That leaves Biden with a free hour of TV. Good move DDT. You’ll be represented by an empty chair, which at least will be quiet as opposed to an empty talking head. Another day, another hurricane. How can those folks live down there under this kind of pounding? Enough craziness for today. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

7 October: MASA coming soon. 27 days to go. Tick Tock Tick Tock hear the kick-him out clock. COVID-19 infections and deaths keep rising, but not to worry, it’s no worse than a mild case of the flu (says DDT). Harris and Pence will “debate” tonight. I am listening to Pence trying to BS his way through the debate by consistently lying. No surprise from an administration that is based on lies and deceit. Kamala Harris sounds quite good. She sounds honest, intelligent, and has a plan based on Joe Biden’s ideas for the next 4 years to pull this country back from shame. Aside from this debate, DDT has just said that catching CV-19 was “a blessing from God”. I think the families that have lost loved ones (now 210,000) and those that have been sick and will get sick and those only partially recovered, might not think that CV-19 was a blessing from God. Right now Biden is well ahead in the polls and will hopefully be way ahead in the big poll on November 3. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

6 October: MASA without DDT is possible. 28 days to go Tick Tock Tick Tock. I cannot believe the gall of DDT stepping out on the Truman balcony claiming he took the risk of CV-19 for the American people and now that he has “recovered” it’s no worse than the flu, so do not let it get you down. You can fight it, only losers die. Today he also canceled the CV-19 relief bill, saying that if re-elected he will propose the biggest and baddest relief bill that anyone has ever seen. Right! That move tanked the stock market today. If he read the papers, DDT would know that Biden has already proposed a real relief bill and the taxes on the rich to help pay for it. In the meantime, poor people can just dangle in the wind for all he cares. Hopefully, the American people are getting tired of this selfish ego-driven clown we have for president. Time for a change of the dirty underwear this country has been using. He wants the Senate to concentrate on the Supreme Court so that he stands a chance of overturning the election results when he loses. We need a blowout. So, get out there and vote. Most of his staff has either come down with CV-19 or is quarantining because of likely contact. Yes, the evil S Miller, the architect of DDT’s worst policies, has come down with CV-19. The good news is that DDT is falling further behind Biden in the polls. Wednesday is the VP debate with or without plexiglass. Pence says he does not want plexiglass but that Harris can have it if she wants. The next presidential debate is also coming up soon. Will DDT make it, and will he be infectious. Perhaps this 2nd debate should be remote or skipped. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

5 October: MASA…Oh No He’s back. 29 days to go Tick Tock Tick Tock. DDT is back at the White House just to show how tough he is. CV-19, no problem. He’s won, so now let’s just move on. So what if 209,000 losers have died. If they weren’t losers they would be just fine, just like all the soldiers that died. I’m sure that DDT’s thoughts are somewhere along those lines. Watch and see DDT try to use his recovery in the campaign. Neat. Harris and Pence will be separated by plexiglass during the VP debate, Hopefully, the next Biden-DDT debate will be similarly separated. This is important since DDT is still infectious even though back at the White House. How many more of his staff will get infected before all this is over? As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

4 October: MASA by getting rid of DDT. 30 days left Tick Tick Tick Tick. The insanity continues with DDT deciding to ride around Walter Reed in an SUV with grim-looking Secret Service Agents to wave at the crowds. This seemingly benign operation is really quite thoughtless and deadly, deadly to anyone in the car with DDT. It is exactly what I would expect of an egotist like DDT. No thought or caring for anyone but himself. Please, vote him out of office. The other amazing thing is how anyone that associates with DDT seems to become corrupted. The doctors at Walter Reed were convinced to lie for him and finally admitted it partially. The problem is now why would I believe anything the doctors are saying. The really good thing is that after the ”debate” Biden’s lead in the polls is growing, now 14 points. We are getting into landslide territory that may mean control of all three branches of government. The democratic stimulus package is now being encouraged by DDT. We’ll see. Another storm is heading for Louisiana, sigh. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

3 October: MASA since DDT is quiet. Good for everyone. 32 days to go. DDT is in the hospital at Walter Reed with his real condition unknown. The doctors are being evasive. He is getting cocktails of the latest drugs to fight CV-19. Hopefully, they will help. I want him to get trounced in a real election. A number of his advisors have tested positive for CV-19, but so far not Miller. That Miller guy is pure evil. Now that DDT is sick he and his campaign are in trouble, DDT is urging the Senate to pass the Democrat’s stimulus bill in the hope it will save him. Twitter has banned death wishes for DDT. Good, that kind of speech has no place in public life. Looks like the alumni of Amy Barrett’s school have come out very strongly against her nomination to the SC. They claim she has not told the truth about her judicial philosophy on issues related to woman’s rights and the LBGTQ community, among other things. Biden campaigning is behaving like a gentleman refraining from attacking DDT, but warning that DDT’s bout with CV-19 should be a reminder to take it seriously and wear masks and maintain distance. Right now, the US has an 8% jobless rate and it may rise sharply with all the new layoffs promised. Bad news for DDT. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out.

2 October: MASA is what we need: 33 days to go. The DDT is sick, this time with CV-19, which could become serious at any time during the next two weeks. What effect it has on the election is anyone’s guess. Even though I cannot stand the man as a fellow human, I hope for his recovery as I would for anyone. The Russians are spooked, “Our candidate is sick”. This is no joke, Russian media are referring to him as their candidate, and talking about all their interference in the 2020 election is for naught. We still have the Democratic stimulus deal on the table even though to some degree DDT is quiet. Will McConnell go for it and will DDT (or Pence) sign it? Who knows? Interesting! Chris Wallace says that DDT arrived too late at the debate for him to take a CV-19 test. Could be he was sick even then. Let’s that Joe B stays free of CV-19. With all this CV-19 stuff going on, I am going to leave this for a few days when the implications are understood more clearly. Biden aqs been vert decent about the CV-19 situation with DDT, wishing him a speedy recovery and pulling all negative ads while he recovers. Let’s see whether the sick DDT responds in kind or shows that he is really a sick person as he has been all his life. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

1 October 2020: MASA Soon: 34 days to go tick tock tick tock. Hope Hicks has been diagnosed with CV-19 and now DDT is quarantining himself, which could be a good thing. If he stops holding big rallies, he will save lives. Unintended consequences. The House has passed a $2.2 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill that will help small businesses, individuals, and money for states. The other good news is that Biden has widened his lead into double digits after DDT refused to disavow white supremacists. The debate committee was trying to rein in the behavior of our rogue PINO, but to no avail, since DDT has refused to permit any rule changes. If this continues, we may have to listen to another blather session of interruptions and meaningless comments. It makes a mockery of the presidency that can be corrected with DDT’s removal from office. Get out there and vote, America. The Republicans in Texas are doing their best to limit the ability to vote by only having one drop-off box per county. This is grossly unfair in a situation where lots of people live and want to vote in the face of the CV-19 pandemic. The Republicans know that they are on the edge of losing control of the state. DDT’s nominee for the Supreme Court has signed an abortion letter in an advertisement calling for the overturning of Roe vs Wade. As usual, DDT is doing his job to the maximum of his ability (not much). There is a war brewing on the edge of Europe with Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Armenia, a war that could easily spin out of control. And where is our president? Too busy campaigning, watching TV, and not minding the store. We need change and need it now. CV-19 is spreading rapidly again with Wisconsin recording the highest single-day number of new cases. What is DDT doing? Nothing. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

30 September: MASA just MASA: 35 days to go, tick-tock. As the hours pass after the h.a. tried to act belligerent, while making a fool of himself, a better sense of the hopeless nature of DDT is clear. The man knows almost nothing, is facile at making things up, thinks he is smart when he is anything but. At least Biden admitted he was not the most diligent student in the University of Delaware and graduated towards the bottom of his class. The honesty is refreshing. Graduating like that is not a signal that he lacks intelligence, but just that he was not much interested when young. In contrast, DDT is ignorant and determined to stay ignorant. You know he is not very bright when he gets angry at people that are smart. This is a man that never should have been president but appealed to racism and greed, which got him elected with a minority of the voters. Hopefully, not again. DDT is still claiming he paid millions in taxes even though his returns show just $750 or zero. It’s just an endless stream of self-aggrandizing falsehoods at the expense of everyone around him including the entire country. DDT steals from the poor to give to the rich, a reverse Robin Hood. And he has made a joke of the US around the world. Other countries laugh at him and at us. People are dying because of him and DDT does nothing. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

29 September: MASA please MASA. 36 days to go. I have to agree with Biden’s first major policy pronouncement. “Will you shut up man”. That’s the most important thing anyone has said about this administration. DDT was ugly, no surprise there. Biden did stand up to him quite well and made his points sometimes having to speak over DDT’s shouting. One thing for sure. Biden is not senile nor weak. He came off quite well. The nice thing is that Biden repeatedly directly looked into the video camera and addressed the American people on important points related to the economy, health care, and the COVID-19 crises. This was very effective in spite of DDT's constant attempts to interrupt and spout nonsense. In my opinion, DDT lost the debate coming off as a clown who debated the moderator as much as his opponent Biden. This is a man who agreed in negotiations not it interrupt the 2-minute segments and could not even keep his word on something so simple and so fundamental to ordinary dignity. As they said on the Apprentice, "DDT, you are fired". Interestingly, Schumer is forcing the Senate to consider a health care bill at the same time as the Supreme Court nomination is considered. DDT’s tax returns are full of lies, just like the rest of his life. It’s all one big fraud. After that ugly (on DDT’s part) “debate”, there is nothing more to write about. I hope he loses and faces a fate that ties him up for the rest of his life. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

28 September: MASA not DDT. 37 days to go. Finally, DDT has gotten recognition for what he is, a national security risk. There is worry that DDT owes a paltry 300 million that is quickly coming due and that some of that might be owed to foreign governments (can you spell Russia). Too bad he’s not broke. Of course, if he continues his brilliant business career much longer, he will be broke. Not to fear, looking in my crystal ball, wait it’s growing clearer…I see an orange suit eating mush for dinner. Who says there is no justice? I wonder tomorrow night how the tax bombshell will play out during the debate? Tune in tomorrow and find out. I just hope Biden is up to the idiot attacks without getting flustered. Globally we are now passing 1 million deaths from CV-19 with over 200,000 here in the US. It’s proof that DDT has done a good job. After all, we have only 20% of the total deaths. It could be worse. Democrats in the House have released a new coronavirus bill, 2.2 trillion, with new stimulus checks. Republicans are salivating at the repeal of ObamaCare throwing millions off their medical insurance while DDT promises a non-existent never to be seen fantastic medical plan that will cover pre-existing conditions up to the first $1.98. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

27 September: MASA no more need be said: 38 days to DDT’s demise. Somehow the New York Times has obtained DDT’s tax returns at least up to 2017. According to the NYT, DDT paid $750, yeah that’s right, not a typo, $750, in 2016 and 2017, and did not pay any tax for 10 of 15 years before 2016. All this while being a billionaire and, according to DDT, earning scads of money. Truth is _____________, put your own spin here. The man is so crooked, so much a liar, and so deserving of jail, we have to vote him out of office to face the music. The first “debate” is on Tuesday. I’m not much interested in what DDT says, but am really interested in how Biden handles himself in the face of a frontal assault with lies and made-up stuff. The Ronald Reagan riff will probably work just fine. “There you go again”. This is a short one for tonight. The real news will come after the debate. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

26 September: MASA without DDT: 39 days to go Tick tock. The other shoe has dropped, and it contains a dirty sock of an appointment to the Supreme Court. She is a member of a hierarchical group, People of Praise, outside of the church but embedded in extreme Catholic theology. If she follows the tenets of her group, she will help undo woman’s rights that RBG worked so hard to achieve. Is she technically qualified, yes. Based on her record and on the record comments, Amy Barett should not be a Supreme Court Justice. It is hard to imagine her not using her background as part of this group devoted to following its all-male leadership and where the husband is king. Perhaps I am wrong. I can hope. The situation in Portland is ripe for violence with the “Proud Boys” group massing against the real protesters. The attempts to steal the election continue with DDT Jr. jumping into the fray and lying about Democrats stealing the election with absentee ballots. Are we headed for a constitutional crisis with a packed Supreme Court? One hopes not. CV-19 is growing in the West as the weather is turning cooler. This is a disaster in the making. Then there is Florida with DeSantis opening the state to business as usual. The man has no brains. It’s all new news, but it sounds the same as yesterday and the day before. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

25 September: MASA not the idiot in-chief. 40 days to go. DDT cracked up at his own joke. Insiders reported that he was greatly amused by the press fuss and lamentations about the possibility that he would not transfer power peacefully if he loses the election. It is sort of DDT’s normal operation to throw spaghetti at the wall and see if it sticks. This is one of these cases where the basic idea is not sticking, but the ability to get free press coverage of himself is sticking. The press is played for a fool. It is starting to look like Amy Barett is going to be DDT’s choice for the Supreme Court. If so, you can probably say goodbye to Roe vs Wade, medical care for the poor, and possibly a ruling in favor of DDT if he loses the election. We need a Biden landslide, so get out and vote. The House is preparing a new 2.4 trillion-dollar stimulus package to see if the Republicans really care about helping the small people and not just the rich. On the world front, there has been a terrorist knife attack in Paris in front of the Charlie Hebdo offices. There is also the rumor that Saudi Arabia may join the relationship with Israel. The forst debate between Biden and DDT is on this coming Tuesday. Finally. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

24 September: MASA the US needs sanity, not DDT: Only 41 days left before the end of DDT's reign of destructive idiocy. Our fearless president, good old DDT, is threatening some kind of non-peaceful resistance to transferring power if he loses. The only thing that might prevent that threat from becoming reality is a landslide victory for Biden on election night. The Republicans are packing the Supreme Court so that if the election is close, they think they can get a ruling from the court that will throw the election to DDT. By the time DDT is done, he will have gone a long way to destroying our representative democracy. We’ve got to get rid of the bum before even more damage is done. DDT was justly jeered when he visited RBG’s casket at the Supreme Court building. Let’s hope the voters do the same on 3 November. House Democrats are preparing a new 2.4 trillion CV-19 stimulus plan with unemployment benefits. Republicans! This is legislation that needs to pass. The post office is being careless with ballots with the latest being a few military ballots dumped in Pennsylvania. This needs to be investigated regardless of who the ballots backed. Mary Trump is suing DDT and family for fraud swindling her out of millions. Good, more requests for documents. Mike Bloomberg has organized a campaign with 16 million raised so far to pay off the debts to Florida for felons that have completed their sentences and want to vote. Florida is now trying to sue because of ancient legislation that forbids one person paying off the debts of another. The legal inquiry looks more and more like Florida is trying to impose an effective poll tax to prevent voting. As predicted the bus-sized asteroid missed the earth today. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

23 September: MASA please: 42 more days to go before hoped for relief. In California, only 15 more years before the gasoline engine goes the way of the dinosaurs (at least for new cars). If this goes the way other changes the occur first in California go, the kiss your romance with gasoline goodbye. Hello electricity or perhaps hydrogen. RBG was honored at the Supreme Court building today and in speeches from everyone. She will be missed. Hard to believe but DDT is refusing to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses the election. Just that refusal alone should disqualify him from being President. Of course, with DDT nothing he says or doesn’t say means very much. Only when there is action is there meaning, even if the result is incompetence or mean. John McCain’s wife Cindy has endorsed Joe Biden and come under the name calling of DDT. What a surprise. Fauci got after Rand Paul in a Senate hearing for spouting nonsense about COVD-19 and New York City achieving herd immunity (not true with only about 22% of residents having been infected and 5 to 10% nationwide) without closing down (also not true). Pelosi is preparing legislation to rein in the power of the President and to compel answering subpoenas. It won’t pass this session, but if Biden is elected, might very well pass. Saudi Arabia is sending mixed signals as to whether it too will establish ties to Israel. This would be good for everyone. The good news is that a dinosaur-killing size meteor will fly by the Earth tomorrow inside of the Moon’s orbit. Close miss. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020

22 September: MASA not DDT: 43 days to go. Missed writing today. It's become "same old same old". With DDT it is getting harder and harder to write about the nonsense he spouts and his Republican enablers. They will go down in history as one of the worst group of Republicans ever. It's their only achievement. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

21 September: MASA if we get rid of DDT. 44 chaotic days to go. The death of RBG and the behavior of DDT in his divisive offensive racist way is ripe for a potential disaster. It is easy to see the possibilities of the effects of a close election disputed by DDT leading to violence in the streets. It probably will not be like Bush vs Gore where Gore accepted the results gracefully after the Supreme Court decision and allowed the country to function normally. Fortunately, the military will almost certainly stay non-political unless the chaos gets beyond some intolerable point where the existence of the country is in doubt. DDT is the worst thing to happen to America in a long time, at least since the first Johnson (after Lincoln) and Jackson, two horrible examples that were Presidents. The best hope is a landslide for Biden. DDT is now claiming the RBG’s dying wish was not hers, but instead was a fake from the Democratic Party. Headline: Names from Jeffery Epstein’s flight logs being are being probed and the probe is causing panic. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020.

20 September: MASA please. 45 days of pain to go. The news is almost all about the Senate and whether any of the Republican Senators have the backbone to stand up for principles. We just need 4 to stop McConnell from causing a major blunder. Pelosi may use the impeachment of DDT to tie up the Senate and prevent a vote on a new Justice. Interesting tactic. Sounds awful but in the face of McConnell’s unethical smarmy behavior, anything goes. Looks like the biggest banks have been laundering money for criminals and Russian oligarchs while knowing full well that they were doing it. They even filed reports they thought would be secret, but a small fraction has leaked. Let’s see if the treasury and justice departments do anything about it. Ted Cruz is worried about a constitutional crisis if Ginsburg is not replaced in the face of a contested election. This is like worrying about counterfeit $3 bills. You cannot counterfeit a $3 bill since they do not exist. Woodward is going to release the tapes of him interviewing DDT when he, DDT, is talking about the Supreme Court. This should be interesting. DDT is not claiming that he is the best thing that happened to Puerto Rico after withholding funds for almost 3 years and now trying to bribe Puerto Ricans with a flood of money. The money will not show up any time soon, but it is “promised” by DDT. Economists are worried about the US slipping into another recession if they do not pass another stimulus bill. Right now, DDT & Company are playing with fire by trying to slip in a cheap bill with lots of unsavory clauses. As usual, DDT is out there making bogus claims trying to set up the situation for claiming a fraudulent election in case he loses. We need a blowout. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump                        PINO = President in Name Only

MASA = Make America Sane again          h.a. = Horse's A--

TBO = Throw the Bum Out

19 September: MASA without DDT: 46 days to go. The news is all about RBG and her replacement with a few Republican senators remembering the Garland fiasco of McConnell and preparing to be fair this time around. Mealy mouthed Lindsey Graham who said “use my words against me” if the next time this comes up just before an election, is licking DDT’s hindquarters as has become his political personality. Susan Collins and Murkowski seem to be on a path to respect precedent, such as it is. Three Republican votes will do it, perhaps 4. Not sure. Whatever the number is, the next president elected in November should fill that position be it DDT or Biden. Some idiot sent Ricin to the white house. I do not care what your political feelings are, there is no place for violence. The vaccine story has moved to April 2021 when, even according to DDT, the vaccine will be ready for wide distribution. DDT is playing with fire in Iran with the nuclear deal in tatters because of invoking new sanctions. The last thing this world needs is nuclear weapons in a country like Iran. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. RGB did not quite make it, now we need some Republican backbone. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

18 September: RBG has died. 47 sad days to go. A leader for human rights and especially woman’s rights, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died of cancer at age 87. On a personal level, our wishes are for her family and friends to get past their sorrow over losing such a fine human being. Justice John Roberts has eulogized her well, “Our Nation has lost a jurist of historic stature. We at the Supreme Court have lost a cherished colleague," Chief Justice John G. Roberts said in a statement. "Today we mourn, but with confidence, that future generations will remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg as we knew her -- a tireless and resolute champion of justice.” Now possibly comes the tragedy that DDT will be able to nominate a right-wing ideolog from his list of bozos that McConnell will push through the Senate in spite of his opposition to accepting the nomination of Garland in the last year of Obama’s term. Ginsburg’s last wish to her daughter before she dies was that a new Justice would not be appointed during the term of this president. Everything else seems small in comparison, so I will just leave this blog with the news of RBG’s death. 

17 September: MASA we need sanity, not DDT. 48 days to go. Let’s see what happened today. For one, we have the postal workers union endorsing Biden. That a good thing. DDT is still after the post office because of Bezos (Amazon) and his ownership of the Washington Post, claiming that the PO is losing billions to Amazon even though internal accounting documents tell a totally different story. What’s one more lie. That’s a bad thing. National polls show Biden’s lead narrowing, but with support in the swing states (not sure if that is good or bad). DDT has said that COVID was good because he does not have shake hands with “disgusting” people. (This is a bad thing). Barr just got skewered for likening the CV-19 lockdown to slavery. (This is a good thing). But Barr has said that he rules the justice department and can do whatever he wants. Where have we heard this before? (this is a bad thing). DDT has been accused of sexually assaulting the model Amy Doris at the US Open in 1997. (This is a sad thing). There is a glacier in Antarctica that is in danger of breaking free and causing the ocean level to rise by many feet while DDT denies climate change. (this is a really bad thing). DDT is contradicting CDC scientists as to when a vaccine will be available. (Another bad thing). But at least the scientists has the courage to write the truth (This is a good thing). The FBI director, Wray, is warning that the Russians are trying hard to influence the US elections in favor of DDT. (this is a god thing about a bad thing). I guess by now you have figured out that there are more bad things than good things, just like every day this year so far. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

16 September: MASA but not with DDT: 49 days of torture. DDT is now claiming that a vaccine can be distributed starting in October contradicting the advice and counsel of CDC and doctors such as Fauci. This is right up there with his climate change denial and forest floor cleaning but refuted by experts. Hopefully, November will make him a lame duck, and January will make him a “dead” duck back in Florida. The stimulus bill is now back to 1.5 trillion including a $1200 check. Let’s hope so since people really need help. When faced with a voter question about the voter’s health care DDT bobbed and weaved and never answered the question. DDT lost the voter's vote because he has no plan except to remove the ACA passed by Obama. It’s official now, the mentally disturbed Caputo will take medical leave and stop making repulsive false statements. He’s not the only one in need of medical leave. Today Giuliani made a crazed speech in NYC lashing out at everything including Black Lives Matter and the NYC school chancellor. RG clearly needs rest and lots of it. Perhaps assisted living for the mentally troubled. Killer DDT is now facing almost 200,000 deaths in the US with the toll climbing steadily. By November it could be 300,000, especially with DDT holding packed campaign rallies with no masks. As DDT said, the laws in a state do not apply to him. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

15 September: MASA by dumping DDT: 50 days to sanity. A miracle has occurred. The nation's foremost scientific publication has for the first time ever endorsed a candidate for President. Scientific American has endorsed Joe Biden. A vote for believing science instead of the nonsense (it will get cooler, believe me) from DDT. Perhaps there are not that many readers of Sci Am to sway elections, but it is a vote for sanity over perversity. Headline: Biden leads DDT by 5 points in Florida. Of course, this is September, so that poll number and a dollar will buy you a candy bar. More deals with Israel in exchange for a middle east arms race and increased chances of war. I heard motor mouth Jared K this evening give an interview on the News Hour. More words per minute than I have heard in a long time reminding me of Faulkner’s book the Sound and Fury (signifying nothing). It was a diarrhea of thoughts spewed with no cleanup. A total waste of electrons. It did prove one thing beyond a shadow of a doubt. Jared sure can talk fast. And then we have Caputo at HHS looking for conspiracies everywhere including under his desk. Apparently he thinks scientists in his agency are out to get him and get his boss, DDT. Caputo just apologized and asked for medical leave. There is hope. Recognizing that you have a problem is the first step in getting help. Now if only he could convince DDT to seek help too. Perhaps the voters this November will help DDT leave the office and face the music in New York. Steve Bannon’s troubles keep getting worse. It’s a fitting end for a profession anarchist to be tarred with a financial scandal and now to be linked to the false accusation of China purposely creating the virus responsible for COVID-19. Of course, DDT doesn’t know the man anymore. Alexi Navalny has spoken for the first time after his poisoning by Russian agents. That’s encouraging and a reason for plaudits for Germany’s medical team. CDC has found that patients visiting hospitals for other reasons caught CV-19 during those visits. Not good, not good at all. With the chaos during the early days of CV-19, I am not surprised. Let’s see what happens to the super spreader events that DDT is holding as part of his campaign with close-packed people and no masks. DDT remarked, what do I care, I’m up on the stage far from those people, so there’s no danger. What a horse’s a---. NYC is preparing for a second wave as the weather goes from summer to autumn. One can only hope that other parts of the country are also preparing. Thanks to DDT, there are large portions in total denial. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 September: MASA and defeat DDT: 51 days left. Hispanics are threatening to vote for DDT. It’s like the group cannot see past the tips of their own noses. They think that living on endless borrowed money and continuing deregulation will better their lives. It won’t. It’s a temporary sugar high that everyone will pay dearly for in the near future. Once elected DDT will not care one bit about Hispanics, except to deport as many as possible. Meanwhile, the climate arsonist (Biden’s words) is specifically denying climate change with the pithy words “it will get cooler, you will see”. This is right up there with the CV-19 prediction that “it will vanish, believe me”. Perhaps DDT should ingest some of that preached bleach. At the very least, he’ll be less orange. The ambush of two police officers sitting in their car in LA at least has not resulted in deaths. I’m all for punishing the bad irresponsible officers that abuse their powers, but ambushing officers minding their own business is awful. Just as bad, was some in the crowd yelling support for the shooter. Just when you think that things cannot get crazier, they do. A DDT appointed Health and Human Services HHS spokesman is claiming that the Democrats are planning an armed insurrection after the election. This is Michael Caputo, who claims he has been hearing and seeing things in his house that he attributes to a declining mental state. He talks about DDT declining to leave the presidency in inauguration day followed by armed battles. Where does DDT find them? And we are back to the “Lock him up” chant at DDT rallies, only this time aimed at Obama for the false claim than he, Obama, spied on his, DDT’s, campaign. The only person that needs to be locked is DDT, and that just for treatment to get his sanity to a level where he can stand trial for bank and tax fraud in New York. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

13 September: MASA and never DDT: 52 painful days left. I wrote the blog, but never posted it. No problem. Things will be worse tomorrow. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

12 September: MASA dump DDT: 53 days of insanity left. Apparently DDT is on drugs and has the last what little is left of his mind. On FOX, he accused Biden of taking drugs because Biden is energetic and scaring the hell out of him. DDT’s campaign is one of massive misinformation and slander. I just hope people are getting tired of hearing lies and being the victims of mismanagement of COVID-19, of the economy, foreign policy, and management of the environment. The interview with Bob Woodward should bring him down, but with some of his supporters, it makes no difference what he does even when it causes them harm. Bernie is in there again trying to push Biden further to the left, which Biden, to his credit, is mostly ignoring. I was just listening to DDT in some of his speeches spewing hate and fear using false claims about riots and Antifa attacking your home in an attempt to raise more money for his bankrupt campaign in money and ideas. Even after the Woodward book, DDT is still feeding misinformation to the public and his henchmen are trying to smear the CDC as Deep State agents putting forth reports that disagree with DDT. We are now almost at the 200,000 level of deaths and heading much higher before the end of the year. These deaths are on DDT’s head. He is responsible for a large fraction of these deaths by his malfeasance throughout this pandemic. The man is an intolerable idiot. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

11 September: MASA by getting rid of DDT: 54 days to end of DDT days. DDT visited the site of the Pennsylvania hijacked plane crash in 9/11 and delivered a wooden speech that gave me splinters just listening. Whatever heart he has just wasn’t in it. Biden did a lot better and sounded quite sincere. Plus, DDT was caught with his fingers in the cookie jar having raided the fund for 1st responders to the 9/11 tragedy of almost 4 million. Nice move. It’s hard to believe that it has been 19 years since that perfect blue-sky day when 3000 US citizens died. Of course, that has been eclipsed by the nearly 200,000 US citizens that have so far died from COVID-19. A huge fraction of these deaths are from the lies told by DDT in February and March, and still continue to this day. DDT was right, no one died of panic. Vaccines are coming along, but not as fast as DDT might like. And, even after immunization starts it will be many months before it is safe to be in a crowd or a restaurant. OMG, DDT is worried about the energy Biden is showing during the campaign. In response to that energy, DDT is falsely accusing Biden of using “performance enhancing” drugs. Perhaps, DDT should ingest some truth serum. DDT’s management of the economy is failing based on massive injections of borrowed cash that the CV-19 problem has just made much worse. Even before CV-19 made it onto the scene, DDT was living off of borrowed cash infusions into the economy in terms of tax cuts for the wealthy. He tried to do the same with his failed businesses but had to go to bankruptcy over and over again. This time our grandchildren will have to pay for it and the cookie jar is starting to run on empty with the budget deficit running at 3 trillion. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

10 September: MASA not DDT: 55 days to go. DDT is spewing fear at the same time he is trying to excuse his behavior in February concealing the CV-19 crises as an exercise in calming the country. Of course, what he really did was sentence over a 100,000-extra people to death. Does DDT care or take responsibility, “What me care?”, never. Responsibility? That belongs to someone else, after all, I (DDT) am just the president, do you expect me to do everything including watching FOX every day for hours news to get my next policy step. Well, he got one thing right, no American died of panic. The Guardian has it right, “If Bob Woodward’s new blockbuster teaches us anything new about the character of the 45th president, it’s that we don’t yet have the words to describe the multiple variants of the vacuum inside his head. There’s the stupidity of arrogance, the stupidity of ignorance and his old friend: the stupidity of blatant duplicity. There’s his homicidal stupidity, his traitorous stupidity, his criminally corrupt stupidity and his plain old infantile stupidity.” Meanwhile an important battle is raging over the census count with a court ordering DDT not to exclude undocumented immigrants from the count as the constitution requires. Time to get rid of this administration and all of the incompetent appointees in the various Federal agencies. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

9 September: MASA not DDT’s insanity: 56 days to go. All kinds of really important DDT fibs have come out today from the recorded interviews by Bob Woodward and in his book Rage. The really big set of lies came out about knowing in advance how deadly CV-19 really was way back in February and keeping it from the public and state governments. There are recordings of DDT’s knowledge and the lies he gave to the public. It is unconscionable how many extra people have died because of DDT trying to maximize his electability for a 2nd term. Woodward’s book has many other deceptions from DDT that shows clearly the mess he created with Russia and North Korea. Of course there is then mess with the military that is not going away (losers and suckers). DDT has revealed a super-secret new weapons system to Woodward during the interviews. He could not help himself against bragging as it helps his ever hungry ego. DDT has announced a new list of Supreme Court nominees if he is re-elected or if RGB does not last until 21 January. These are not people that we should want on the court. These are very political people, not judicial material even though some have already been appointed to high level appeals courts by DDT and McConnell. The ugly business with Barr trying to make the US government be the defendant in DDT’s rape-defamation case is still going on unless a federal judge turns Barr down. One can hope so that it can go back to a New York State court where DDT would have to answer questions under oath and give a DNA sample. The new Republican CV-19 relief bill does not include a second round of stimulus checks, which will not help lower middle class or poor people at all. AstraZeneca has paused the clinical trial of COVID-19 vaccine because of what appeared to be an adverse action. Bob Woodward’s final conclusion is that DDT is not qualified for the job of President. Joe Biden after the release of the recordings, ripped DDT up one side and down the other and concluded that DDT is not qualified for, or capable of, being president. He should resign and let Pence pardon him. That would be a real scandal. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

8 September: MASA not ever DDT again: 57 days till DDT goes down in flames. It’s another day of DDT bluster and lies, so tiresome. That is the way DDT wins by tiring you out. You just want him to shut up. The only way to do that is to vote him out of office and into jail (by legal means in NY). The Republicans are going to give another shot at passing a slimmed down CV-19 relief bill that is quite inadequate. It’s now down to 300 billion from the original Republican 1 trillion. The Republican party is mentally ill, an illness by contagion from DDT. Michael Cohen’s book is out and accuses DDT of being a crook and a racist with facts to back it up. What a surprise. I wish people would listen. Quote for an online article, “Coronavirus sent by God to expose how Bone Spurs 'spews ... lies and half-truths’”. Bone Spurs is of course DDT. WOW! Heavy snow in Colorado after blazing heat. The last Australian journalists just made it out of China before they were to be arrested and held hostage. Anyone that goes there is out of their minds. Bad news for DDT. AstraZeneca has put their phase 3 vaccine trial on hold after an adverse reaction. At least they are trying to be honest. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

7 September: MASA not the lying DDT: 58 more days of nonsense from DDT. Biden is now saying that he will not believe a pronouncement from DDT (a surprise as DDT puts it) on a vaccine unless it is back up by a reliable source such as Fauci. This ticked off DDDT no end and accused Biden of being against a vaccine. Go Joe! DDT is pushing back in the Atlantic article (sucker and losers), saying that only an animal would say that. OK, quite braying you jackass. OMG. 1000 people showed up at San Francisco beaches to celebrate “Burning Man” ignoring all safety protocols related to CV-19. The mayor lamented about the reckless and selfish behavior, and I agree. DDT is throwing his friend DeJoy under the bus. Got to rename him NoJoy for his campaign finance misdeeds. DDT says NoJoy has got to go. See it pays to have friends in high places, but DDT is no one’s friend. Brexit is back (in the news) as the UK is trying to negotiate a free trade deal with the EU. They really need to get adults on both sides to negotiate this deal. BoJo says he will walk away at the end of October. The real threat is DDT not accepting a loss in the upcoming election after the mail-in ballots are counted. Perhaps he’ll pardon himself after declaring himself the winner by presidential order. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

6 September: MASA not ever DDT: 59 long days to go. LA is burning hot with a cold front coming that will bring snow to certain mountain areas. Crazy, yes, but then crazy is the order of the day. LA beaches were jammed in response to the hot weather, CV-19 be damned. Labor day weekend is probably going to be another super infection holiday. DDT is still trying to get the FOX reporter fired that told the truth about DDT’s military comments, “fools and suckers”. This is nothing new for a person focused only on himself and willing to exact revenge at the slightest slight. Bernie Sanders is warning the country to be prepared for DDT not accepting the results of the election by various false claims. Fortunately, the military will not support him, and hopefully other law enforcement agencies will also not support him and will follow the commands of the elected president. Bottom line the Labor Day weekend, it’s a mess and is likely to grow worse. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

5 Sept: MASA not DDT ever again: 60 days to pain relief from DDT. Boats sink in a DDT support boat parade that hopefully is a prelude to the sinking of Boat DDT on November 3. As usual, DDT attempts to ghet revenge for a Fox News reporter, Jennifer Griffin, for verifying the truth about DDT’s comments about the military being suckers and losers. Come November, let’s get rid of the real loser, DDT. The suckers and loser comments are dominating the news, so other items are being ignored. Good news is that the Russian vaccine appears to be working with few side effects suggesting that similar better tested vaccine candidates in western countries may work well as well. Kamala Harris said that she would not trust DDT’s recommendations on a US vaccine for safety and effectiveness. You might as well drink bleach. At the moment DDT refuses to condemn the Russian poison attack on Navalny, which is not surprising since DDT is Putin’s monkey and does whatever the organ grinder wants. The domestic protests continue with violence in many places undermining the reason for the protests. Of course, police actions are not helping at all with a mounting death toll from police actions. It seems as if the cops are not getting the memo about shooting people in the back or asphyxiating them. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

4 September: MASA not the loser, DDT. 61 days of dissonance to go. Biden lashed out at DDT for calling troops that died fighting for our country losers and fools. DDT is also apparently confused as to why the government values finding soldiers missing in action. He told senior advisers those soldiers had performed poorly, gotten caught and therefore deserved what they got. DDT glorified his use of fake bone spurs to get out of service. As he said, he had his Vietnam avoiding STD’s while he was catting around. Our hero! Of course, DDT is denying it, but the article in Atlantic is verified by four independent sources and DDT’s own recorded words about Vietnam and about John McCain. He cannot duck this one. This one I did not know. DDT was preparing to shut down the stars and stripes newspaper. Idiot. Fortunately, someone talked him out of doing it. Not so with the Voice of America now being destroyed by his newly appointed head of VOA who is firing the best of the journalists, especially the foreign born ones that understand the countries VOA serves. Barr, our AG, went for an interview with CNN and showed his racist colors as well as echoing DDT’s baseless claims of voter fraud. This following DDT’s shameless attempt at fouling the election process by encouraging his followers to vote twice, which is a crime in itself. DDT is now arguing that he sees no evidence that the Russian Navalny was poisoned even though the Germans have verified the poisoning. Another case of DDT being Putin’s Puppet. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

3 Sept: MASA not DDT: 62 Days: Skipped a day on 2 Sept and then lost internet on 3 Sept. The big thing that happened on the missed days are the dispariging remarks that DDT made about the military. Especially where he said that all soldiers that died in WWII and Vietnam were suckers and losers, and he did not understand why anyone would sign up to serve their country when they could be making money. He particulaly went after the generals for not making money. The big criminal act was DDT encouraging people in North Carolina to vote twice (felony), which is a crime to even encourage such behavior. DDT needs to wind up in jail. Barr, when asked about such bad behavior on the part of DDT, evasively answered that he did not know state law. The list goes on and on with the perpetually lying, racist, agitating, criminally behaving president. Let's make him a loser too.  As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

1 September 2020: MASA not DDT: 64 days: I cannot believe it that dope DDT is defending the 17 year old murderer. Yeah, he got scared, but that is no reason to shoot two people. DDT is definitely trying to start a race and culture war, a real war with guns and violence. He thinks that violence will help him win the election through fear. The truth of the matter is that DDT is causing extra violence, and violence of a more sinister nature that can affect all of us. A culture war of right wing extremists against the rest of the normal people and especially against people of color. DDT just used a public health law to prevent evictions for a 4-month period nationwide. However, he has done nothing to help the owners of the buildings pay their mortgages. The results should be interesting. There is also the payroll tax scam. Reducing the social security and Medicare tax this Autumn only to have to pay it back in January to April. An absolute mess strictly aimed at the election and does not help the unemployed in the slightest. DDT is trying to minimize the real death toll now almost 180,000 people while a member of his administration is pushing for a Sweden type herd immunity policy of no precautions. A policy that will increase the death toll dramatically and may not work. Expect 2 million deaths by the end of 2021 under such a policy. The Russians are hard at work with fake Facebook pages and other interference in our upcoming election at the same time our intelligence agency is refusing to inform congress under the instruction of the DDT administration. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

31 August: MASA not ever DDT: 65 days to go to DDDT day. Guess what, you are living in DDT’s America with violence occurring in the cities with DDT encouraging it. He has even defended the 17-year old who killed two people, with DDT now claiming self-defense even though video shows it was not self defense at all. If you want to live in a country with roaming self-organized armed militias wondering our streets, the DDT is your man. In the America I want to live in is one governed by laws, not militias. Interesting story just breaking about the time just after DDT fire Comey as head of the FBI. DDT apparently offered Kelly the job, if, and only if, he, Kelly, would swear loyalty to DDT instead of the constitution. Kelly refused, to his credit. This is sick behavior in the US. This is the behavior of a dictator. Not my America. We need to get rid of DDT and bring in a real President to restore this country (Vote for Biden). The other vile force that is proliferating on the internet and in some people’s fevered minds is from the conspiracy theory QAnon. This is something that the Russians may be up to very successfully.  As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

30 August: MASA not DDT not EVER: 66 days to go, tick tock. As is usual on Sundays, nothing big has happened. Lots of articles on right wing group violence in the US like the Patriot Prayer group in Portland and the shooting by a 17-year-old right-wing rifle carrying nut in Kenosha Wisconsin. The BLM violence against property really needs to stop as it undermines their message and makes for sensationalist news reports that totally overwhelm the reason for the protests. Of course, DDT has to put his gut into the fray and call the Portland mayor a FOOL, telling him to bring in the National Guard. This is a tough one. On one hand, the right to protest must be defended, but the right to protest does not include rioting, looting and burning. It is only a small group doing the damage, but the damage to the reputation of the protesters is huge. DDT is going to visit Kenosha with the idea of inflaming the situation so as to further his call for “law and order”. These protests are on DDT’s watch with no one to blame but himself. His pathetic attempts to shift blame to Biden are ridiculous. Biden has been out of power for 4 long years and carries almost no responsibility for DDT’s failures. The latest about the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) cancelling all briefings is right in line with DDT’s bid for reelection. CNN’s Dana Bash asked Schiff if he thinks the Trump administration is trying to protect Russia over the decision to cancel the briefings. “No, DDT’s motivation is, as always, solely about himself. It's to get himself reelected." As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

29 August: MASA not ever DDT: 67 long days to go: Biden’s lead has narrowed after the Republican convention, as expected. The real question is whether it will go back up with Biden on the campaign trail and getting press coverage. DDT has a knack of stealing press time by being outrageous. He did it in 2016 and expect it again in 2020, only more so. Now the Director of National Intelligence is refusing to testify to congress except in writing. That should slow things down. The universities are detecting more and more CV-19 cases and are basically shutting down. U of Alabama has more than 1000 cases. Finally, some of DDT’s former supporters are abandoning him for all the lies and fakery. The Portland protestors are ruining the protest’s purposes and making a mockery of themselves. No one is listening to their issues, just watching the violence on TV. If you want to help DDT win, keep it up. Belarus is getting ready to invite Putin in after getting rid of all foreign journalists. This is a tragedy unfolding with no one willing to step in. The UAE has ended the boycott of Israel. This could be a good thing for the Middle East. We’ll see how this plays out over time. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

28 August: MASA not DDT: 68 days to go to Dump DDT Day. I again subjected myself to the Republican convention to hear for myself unfiltered by pundits exactly what the DDT family had to say. There are tow ways to look at what was said. First, is if you know the truth or reality of what has happened during the past 3 and ½ years, and second, if you only have a smattering of knowledge colored by cable TV and possible the QAnon fraud. In the first case, even without detailed fact checking, what you heard was 90% false, of which more than 50% were outright lies. Aside from the shilling for DDT by family members and a few carefully selected outsiders, the stories told by people close to DDT were sickening fabrications. Promises made, promises kept. Yes there were some, like appointing conservative judges throughout the court system, lowering taxes for the wealthy, increasing the national debt more than any other president since WWII, pulling out of international agreements, stabbing our friends in the back, slandering anyone that have different opinions from DDT, and setting an all time record for unabashed lies with a smirk. And this does not count DDT’s abysmal handling of the CV-19 pandemic in the US, while praising himself for succeeding. A complete rewriting of reality. In the second case, you only heard the convention rhetoric reinforcing DDT’s stellar performance for the past 3 and ½ years. According to this screed, he has done things no other president has even thought possible. The country is safer now, crime is down (law and order president, dude, you own the riots starting with Charlottesville, VA with “good people on both sides”), there is prosperity and hope throughout the land with the V shaped recovery of the stock market, but not the Main Street Market, there is no climate change problem as it vanished the same way the CV-19 virus has vanished, we need to pump more oil and gas even though renewable energy will create huge numbers of jobs, our military is bigger and better and totally useless leaving Putin and Xi to do whatever they want. And the list goes on. I finally had to turn the damn thing off to preserve my sanity. Of course, if the panicking DDT loses, he stands to lose big with prosecution for tax and bank fraud and who knows whatever other criminal acts that might turn up. For DDT, Orange is the new orange. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

27 August: MASA not DDT: 69 days to go: Just reading the NYT, that radical newspaper, with an editorial headlined, “Don’t be Dense, Beware Mike Pence”, which will make you laugh and cry. A small excerpt, : Lots of ways you could celebrate Pence’s renomination. Male fans might consider announcing that they’ll be following his lead and will go to events where alcohol is served only when they’re accompanied by their wives. The presidential campaign themes are “Keep America Great” and “Promises Made, Promises Kept.” A “Little Woman, Big Chaperone” T-shirt for the vice president’s female followers might be next. Oh well, vote for Biden and Pence will be history. God has spoken: Hurricane Laura Brings Down Confederate Monument in Louisiana After Officials Rejected Calls to Remove It. (Democrats fault). More prominent Republicans backing Biden, staffers from Bush and Romney. As some wit pointed out, DDT has had almost 4 years to bring about law and order, instead hae has brought out chaos. He’s claiming that he’s the law and order person to reelect, but wait, he’s the one in charge and has failed. Four more years will be four more years of failure and damage. Pelosi is suggesting that there be no debate with DDT on the pig in mud theory. It’s pointless, you have to get in the mud and the pig likes it. She suggested that if there is a debate it be done in separate auditoriums. DDT is calling for a drug test before the debates, I agree, if DDT releases his tax returns. The Washington Post is claiming that DDT as President has forced the government to spend over $900,000 at his properties and now DDT is threatening to sue based on WP telling the truth. Tonight, we get more of hosannas for DDT, plus we get DDT himself reading the teleprompter or perhaps making side comments and shooting himself in the foot. We’ll see. Russia is blaming the US for the car collision in Syria where a Russian armored car rammed a US car injuring two US servicemen. China fire missiles while warning the US that they fired an aircraft carrier destroyer missile in the South China sea in international waters. Meaningless unless someone makes a mistake. Biden needs to get out there after the convention is over and paint his own picture of himself. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

26 August: MASA not DDT: 70 days left till down with DDT day (Nov 3). Listening to the Rep. Convention in the background with people saying great things about DDT giving him credit for things he has not really done. They are attempting to rewrite history by simply declaring lies over and over. Some of the people seem sincere, so I will give them credit and call them misguided. The bottom line is that it is difficult to listen scripted nonsense. The Wisconsin AG is attempting to make an excuse for the police shooting Jacob Blake in the back 7 times by saying they found a knife in Blakes car. I doubt the officers knew about a hidden knife and there is no evidence that Blake was going for the knife. Now we have chaos in Wisconsin over another senseless killing apparently without reason. The big news are the two storms approaching our Southeast with 20 foot tidal surge. DDT is covering up the shortage of test equipment for CV-19 by calling for less testing. Works. Just like having people die sooner to protect Social Security. Enough for tonight. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

25 August: MASA not DDT: 71 days to go to the end of DDT: The Republican convention is still blabbing on. No policy, no ideas just pablum and a bunch of lies. The really good thing is that New York State is documenting all of the illegal things that this president has done to pad his own fortune. Most egregious of the things we already know about is not paying taxes on over $100 million in loan forgiveness. The other things like bank, basic tax fraud, misuse of charitable funds, and defrauding students at DDT University seem small by comparison. Most disturbing was the speech by Eric Trump, a speech of divisiveness and self-serving ideas. Throughout this mish-mash has been a theme of how great DDT’s management of the COVID-19 pandemic. The shooting in Wisconsin of a black man by police involved in nothing, just a bystander, who is now paralyzed from the waist down. A little honesty popped up with the FDA chief apologizing for overselling the blood plasma effect on COVID-19. Mike Pompeo, with disregard for the law, gave a speech from Israel while on official travel in apparent violation of the rules for government employees. Quoting from the Daily Beast “One of the speakers for the second night of the Republican National Convention was pulled from the program after The Daily Beast surfaced a tweet from her, earlier in the day, urging her followers to investigate a supposed Jewish plot to enslave the world.” The speaker is a member of the Trump campaign’s advisory board. Just the fact that she is on DDT’s advisory board is really bad. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 August: MASA not DDT: 72 days to go. I’m siting here listening to the Republican bleating during what passes for a convention. I have never heard such a pack of deluded people on medical care, voting, education, and the delusion that Democrats are essentially communists. I shouldn’t listen, but knowing the idiots who are ruining this countries is important. There was one young lady talking about how Tele-medicine saved her life and gave DDT’s medical plans credit, which is BS. DDT is a semi joke is back to suggesting he might serve more than two terms (12 years). OMG. In contrast, economists offer a bleak assessment of DDT’s first term talking about deglobalization trend and protectionism. DDT Jr is going after Biden and freedom of speech claiming that shouting fire in a theater is protected speech. Of course he did not actually say that, but was talking about protecting racist and Nazi speech. Enough! I cannot write about this mess. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

23 August: MASA not DDT: 73 days. To blog or not to blog: That is the question: Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous DDT, Or take arms against a sea of mud, and by opposing end them on Nov 3. When we shuffle off this mortal coil happy in the thought of DDT nevermore. Tis the wind and nothing more. Enough Shakespoe. DDT is pushing plasma treatments in opposition to the FDA for Covid-19. This is a treatment that might hold some promise. The trouble is we will not ever know if there are not double-blind testing. DDT is fuming over his poor tv ratings in the absence of his more usual bloviating rantings. He’s got 4 days to make up for our lack of being exposed to his rants. Apparently, he has featured himself on every day. Against laws and custom, DDT is calling for police presence at the polls to attempt to intimidate voters, especially minority voters during the 2020 election. Illegal and outrageous. Now this is potentially news. Kim Jong Un is reported to be in a coma as his sister Kim Yo Jong takes control. Is it true? Probably bad news for the world. Bannon is in a heap of legal trouble along with other advisors of DDT. Sounds almost like a Mafia takedown of a crime family, start at the edges and work toward the center. If it were not sad, it would be funny. DDT is now tweeting that election ballot drop boxes mat spread COVID-19. Twitter has added a violation label. Now DDT is calling FOX fake news ever since they have started to comment a bit critically on his views and ridiculous statements. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

22 August: MASA not DDT: 74 days to go…OMG still 74 days to go. Of course, we have the Republican convention coming up. Stir stir, the witch’s cauldron as darkness descend on the land for four days. DDT, the evil prince of nonsense reigns in his land of the walking dead who will tell us all about his delusions painted as alternate realities. It's like Kellyanne's alternate facts, facts that only live in her febrile brain. Just believe, and DDT will lead you into the dessert where there is nothing unless you are a rich supporter with your mouth at the trough. For the rest of you, if you can eat an illusion, then DDT is your leader. The House has approved 25 billion for the post office, but you can be sure that McConnell in the Senate will bottle it up. Postmaster Disaster stamp out DeJoy. Amazing that DeJoy decommissioned mail sorting machines in the swing states first to reduce the amount of voting where it will help DDT. Mail delivery really has deteriorated to the point where medicines are badly delayed, and chicks are arriving dead. DeJoy takes no responsibility just like his boss, DDT. Here we go again, DDT is nonsensically claiming that the “deep state” is delaying the deployment of a COVID-19 vaccine until after the election. Apparently, the FDA wants to have a vaccine that is both safe and effective, at least 50% effective. An honest Trump! DDT’s sister says that DDT has no principles and you cannot trust him. Thank you for the news, I neve would have though of that. What do you know, DDT is about to block the Pebble gold mine project. Block it not out of environmental concern, but because his son DDT Jr like to fish there. DDT is busy spreading fear of diversity, fear of destruction of your way of life, and fear of helping people other than his rich friends. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

21 August: MASA not DDT: 75 days to go: Reminds me of the kiddie song, 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer, if one of those bottles should happen to fall, well, 98 bottles of beer on the wall….We are not past the Democrat’s convention. All in all, a resounding success, especially since it was the very first of its kind. In a lot of ways is was more personal and intimate with quiet speeches, lots of poignant personal vignettes, and a wide range of people speaking. Of course, the highlight was what everyone was waiting for, a powerful speech from Biden in real time. A speech that attacked DDT, for sure, but more importantly laid out a vision of a caring responsible capable president who has a plan for moving this country out of DDT’s morass. We are now up over 175,000 deaths and 5 million cases. Estimates of the real CV-19 death count is well over 200,000. Since it is impossible for DDT to keep his mouth shut, he has already given us a preview of his nasty name calling campaign. So far it is mild, by DDT standards, only calling Biden a candidate of darkness and gloom, while he, DDT, is a candidate of hope and light. By this time, people should be able to see through DDT and laugh at the very unfunny clown. Even FOX news praised Joe’s speech and convention. This definitely lays down the challenge for DDT to meet on substance and not arm waving and grins. DDT’s answer to Democrats. “Lots more of ME”. A federal judge has asked the Republican Party for evidence of mail in fraud, with the answer, “we cannot give you any”. Pretty good, a number of Republicans have denounced QAnon as a wild conspiracy theory with no basis in fact. Even Pence denounced it. DDT has embraced QAnon, their demi-god. A judge in NY has thrown out DDT’s request for a stay to protect his tax returns and other papers from the prosecutor in NY going after bank and tax fraud. On the climate front, Greenland has lost enough ice this year to cover California in three feet of water 530 billion metric tons of ice turning into water. Global warming anyone. Meanwhile, DDT is pushing coal, oil and gas for America. We’ve got to do better. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

20 August: MASA not DDT: 76 days to go: Last night was sort of woman’s night at the convention, including Kamala’s acceptance speech. It was quite good, but tonight we here from Joe Biden directly. Hopefully, it will be strong speech. The big thing that is clear is that we will be trading an incompetent liar (DDT) for an empathetic competent honest leader with a lifetime of experience (Biden). That is my unbiased opinion. It is unbiased. Think about it. If DDT had come into the presidency incompetent, lazy, and dishonest, but as he was in the office, recognized its seriousness and the need to truthfully lead, then I would not be calling DDT a dangerous nincompoop. Instead he came into office a dangerous nincompoop and has not changed. This has been more than 3 years of the DDT reality show on how to pretend to look like a really bad President. Today’s news has Bannon indicted for fraud. What is interesting is that DDT Jr was deeply involved in the fraud, but not indicted. Why? Now DDT is throwing Bannon under the bus by denying he know anything about the private scheme to fund a border wall, when in fact he absolutely knew and publicly praised the effort (liar). Hmmm. Pelosi just backed Joe Kennedy over the left wing choice of AOC in the Massachusetts Democratic primary. Made AOC mad. While I didn’t hear the FOX news program reading about it was strange. They blasted DDT for embracing QAnon conspiracies and the dangerous people involved with QAnon. It’s consistent in that QAnon has essentially anointed DDT as their demi-God and DDT is returning the favor to anyone that praises him, even if it is praise for uncovering pedophiles and people that eat children who are located in the “deep state”. We had an example of that in the shooting up of the pizza parlor in DC. “These are people that love our country,” Trump said of QAnon during his latest press briefing. Dozens of former security advisors have now come out in favor of Biden in an open letter along with an increasing number of moderate Republicans who have had enough of a clown in the White House. Uh Oh! DDT has found another false cure for CV-19, the botanical extract oleandrin. Do not use this, it is dangerous. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

19 August: MASA not DDT: 77 days to election day. Listening to day 3 of the Democratic Convention, listening to clips of DDT calling climate change a hoax along with calling CV-19 a left wing plot. Yesterday, the Senate released a 1000-page damning bipartisan report on Russian interference in the 2016 election. It goes way beyond the Mueller report that Barr distorted when reporting to the US. Seeing some of the key policy changes has to do with insuring medical care to both the employed and unemployed, doing something about gun control to stop the tragedy of families being ruined by senseless gun violence killing children fathers and mothers. Clearly climate change is a big issue that a Biden administration will address. Not changing to electricity generated from renewable sources, wind and solar, will make the disaster so much worse. We already know what DDT will do. He tells us that what we need is more gas and coal, more pollution in the air and water, and more destructive weather extremes. Our southwest is suffering an extreme heat wave, our east coast is the target of more storms, our Midwest is suffering drought or destructive storms (derecho). The big thing is who wants 4 more years of lies and indifference to the plight of people, the stripping of essential services we all depend on, trying with every incompetent bone in his body to suppress voting, and the fawning on foreign dictators. As he said, “if we let more people vote, there will never be another Republican (like me) elected again”. The DDT campaign is suing N.J. to stop the governor’s vote-by-mail order, calling it ‘brazen power grab' DDT has failed all his life, lying and cheating, and is failing now. He is the swamp, not up to the job and watches TV for half the day. Michelle Obama had it right….vote as if your life depended on it, because it does. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

18 August: MASA Not DDT: 78 days to go. I’m listening to the 2nd night of the Democratic nominating convention as the roll call rolls on. What I am really waiting for is to hear Jill Biden speak. She will be an active participant in Joe Biden’s administration, since she is an accomplished person in her own right and the both of them are close. Her opinions are important as are the opinions of Kamala Harris. If they win, which I sincerely hope, this administration will be like night vs day, corruption vs honesty, the incompetent DDT vs a person, Biden, who knows what he must do and how to do it without violating our constitution and our democracy. Unlike DDT, he is for renewable energy instead of continuing the exploration of fossil fuels that pollute out atmosphere and lead to the highly dangerous global warming. The vote is to save our country from an incompetent dictator and to save us from a stacked Supreme Court. DDT made a fool of himself lashing out at Michelle Obama’s speech because it hurt his delicate ego. During the next 78 days, we are going to hear a lot of useless nasty stuff from DDT that is just fit to be ignored. Aside from the convention, the Treasury Secretary Mnuchin is still negotiating with the Democrats on a relief package, but unwilling to, no forbidden to, compromise with the Democrats. DDT’s plan, stall and blame the Democrats. New DDT BS. DDT is proposing a toll at the US Mexico border to pay for the wall, a wall that will stop when he loses the election. We’ve still got major problems in Belarus, where there may be a vicious repression from Lukashenko to keep his grip on power, and from China where there is the potential now for war over Taiwan. We need a real President. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

17 August: MASA not DDT: 78 days and counting: The Democratic convention for 2020 has started with wall to wall TV coverage even though the convention is virtual. The big draw tonight is Michele Obama. We have to see if the Democrats can generate excitement with their endorsements and policy pronouncements. Biden apparently is going to appear every night of the convention. Now DDT is trying to claim that dismantling the post office will speed it up for mail delivery and that his whole policy is to make it faster, better, and cheaper. It is well known that the best you can do is 2 out of 3. Any attempt with anything to do all three is doomed to failure. Postamster DeJoy is scheduled to testify before Congress about changes he has made in the post office. It’s getting hot in California 112 degrees with rolling power outages and the hottest ever in Death Valley, 130 degrees. Do you still think global warming is not a problem? DDT, against all advice on the environment, has opened up the Alaska Arctic refuge to oil and gas drilling in a time of oil and gas glut. It’s another example of DDT’s finely honed business acumen (of failure). We are now experiencing 50,00 new cases of CV-19 per day and have achieved a DDT world record (the biggest ever) of 175,000 deaths in the US. Another outstanding DDT achievement. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

16 August: MASA not DDT: 79 days and counting. I took a break this past Sunday writing about the ruining of our election process by DDT and the CV-19 pandemic. DDT is doing his best to prevent the broadest possible voting in November 2020 my destroying the Post Office through his henchman DeJoy. To me, this is criminal activity and should be treated as such by the House and Senate. Some of the state’s attorneys general are treating it as potentially criminal by launching investigations and Grand Jury inquiries. Much else happened today, but it will have to wait for tomorrow. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

15 August: MASA not DDT: 80 days to go. DDT is sabotaging the election, especially through the crippling the post office claiming a corrupt vote. The only problem is that the corruption comes directly from DDT at many levels. DDT is the swamp, bad smell and rot. Newsweek allowed an op-ed that questioned Kamala’s citizenship but has now apologized for the lie. Good, DDT is struggling in Georgia and the Democrats are pushing to flip the state. DDT held a press conference and has said that he may ask the entire cabinet to resign if reelected. This should not be a problem after 20 Jan 2021. DDT is now saying he will look at a pardon for Snowden. Just discussing it will be a distraction from the ugliness of DDT toward women and minorities. Protesting crowds gathered at the home of the postmaster DeJoy for sweeping reductions in the post office ahead of the election. Must have had some effect with DeJoy announcing he will stop removing mailboxes until after the elections. But, will he put the hundreds back that he has already removed? On another front, The UN just dealt DDT a big blow in rejecting at continuation of the arms embargo for Iran. How this plays out is anyone’s guess. Two million Californians are n the dark without A/C and according to the weather forecast, the heat is just beginning. Global warming anyone/ Nah, no problem according to DDT. Let’s just release more methane and all our problems will go away, including us. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 August: MASA not DDT: Today I saw video of post office workers removing mailboxes so that people will not be able to use them for voting. Between the Postmaster DeJoy and DDT purposely interfering with an election, it must be criminal behavior. DDT, if not stopped, will single handedly ruin our democracy. He cannot be allowed to get away with this outrage. Even Republicans, at least some of them, must still have enough backbone and moral courage to stand up to the idiot. Obama finally came out rhetorically swinging at DDT’s behavior. The whole country should be outraged except for the small fraction that want to live in a country without laws. Right now Biden is 8 percentage points ahead of DDT. We need more. It’s got to be a blowout. What is it? 82 days to the election. Seems like forever, even though I know it will be gone in a blink. I cannot believe this country. A federal appeals court threw out California’s ban on high capacity magazines for semi-automatic rifles. What on earth does anyone need those except to commit wholesale murder? Michael Cohen’s book will be out in 2 or 3 weeks. A book that tells in detail the crooked ugly deals that DDT pulled in life and in the first year of his presidency. It should be an eye-opener of a book. I can’t wait. Will it bring DDT down? Probably not. The only thing that will bring the incompetent criminal we have as President will be a blowout election. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

13 August: MASA not MAGA: There is a rumor going around that DDT was not born in the United States and therefore is not eligible to be President. Seems, he was born to an Irish mother when she was very young and transferred to a childhood in Queens with Fred Trump. Of course, this was before Kamala’s mother came to America and had Kamala. DDT seems confused and is claiming that “nasty” (his words) Kamala was not born in the US. Right up there with his claim that Obama was not born in Hawaii. Insert laugh track here. Now, DDT is opposing giving extra money to the post office to help with the election at the same time that his new head of the post office, Louis DeJoy, is being accused of corruption because he purchased Amazon options just before he cut back on the post office’s ability to deliver packages. Strangely, DDT has admitted that he’s blocking the Post Office aid to mess up mail in voting for the 2020 election. He should be prosecuted for that (and many other things). The Supreme Court just turned down a Republican effort to make it harder to vote. At least DDT is even handed tossing insults at a number of women, Harris, Alexandria Cortez, and Mika Brzezinsk (Morning Joe). Now DDT is planning to accept the nomination on the White House lawn, beats Gettysburg. Really? Just discovered, a SECRET Israeli plan to ship 60,000 Palestinians to Paraguay. The only problem with this discovery is that it was over 50 years ago. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

12 August: MASA not MAGA: Well that attack VP has struck. KH claims that the case against DDT is open and shut, just like the prosecutor that she used to be. DDT better watch out who he is tangling with. She is no pushover like the zombie DDT has for vice president. In the next few days it will be interesting to see the positions Biden And Harris stake out. One thing for sure, it will be very different from the fear, racism and mudslinging of DDT. OMG. DDT is supporting the Qanon conspiracy theories and a republican candidate for congress that really believes in this trash, Marjorie Taylor. The Republicans deserve this one. DDT is feuding with his Defense Secretary Mark Esper over a number of issues, especially the latest over the Beirut blast. DDT want it to be an attack with no evidence other than unspecified general told him so that does not appear to exist. What? DDT lying? Hmmmm. Putin’s pushing a CV-19 vaccine that has not been tested just to be first out of the gate. I’d like it to be true. The Russians did produce the best Ebola vaccine. Wait and see. Great, now we have a Florida Sheriff banning employees from wearing masks even though the state is having a record number of cases. It’s time for the sheriff to get a bad case Covid-19 and become a believer. CV-19 hs caused the British economy to plunge int its worst recession compared to any other major economy. Are we next? CV-19 is spiking 90% among young people with hospitalization of young people now exceeding older patients. We are definitely on a path for over 200,000 deaths. I cannot wait for 21 January when I can stop writing this polemic against stupidity in the personification of DDT. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

10 August: MASA not MAGA: Hard to believe, the summer is almost over. Another 20 days and we’ll be in September heading to November. What is it now, something like 82 days left? Sounds like a lot, but it will go fast. We are waiting for the other shoe to drop (Biden’s VP). You would think there’s be more drama about the choice, but there’s not. He is bound to pick a black woman as VP, which is fine by me. I just hope he picks one with experience, because at his age, there is significant probability the she will finish his term. Mnuchin is finally ready to restart talks and put more money on the table. The big question is are the Republicans willing to provide aid to the states? Here’s hoping that the negotiation is real this time. First, it’s the White House and now Gettysburg for DDT to accept the nomination and make his undoubtably racist divisive speech. It’s a good spot. A symbol of the loss of the racist South and the start of a new era without DDT. Kanye West is still in there with his “Birthday” Party trying to get on ballots with the aid of the Republican Party. DDT denies any involvement, which means he’s deeply involved in trying to siphon off black votes. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump                      PINO = President in Name Only

MASA = Make America Sane again         h.a. = Horse's A--

TBO = Throw the Bum Out

9 August: MASA not MAGA: New York Times article told the story of DDT seeing to have his image added to Mt. Rushmore. The idea of asking for that indicates an ego knowing no limits, no intelligence, just continuous insanity. New York’s Cuomo told the truth for NY and other states. There is no way NY could possibly pay the additional money that DDT’s executive order of extended unemployment payments would require. Even if DDT does not know this, he does not seem to know much, the people around him should. This is right up there with the crazy (and cruel if carried out) idea of suspending payments for Social Security and Medicare. He says funding Social Security out of general taxation is the way he wants to go. Of course, that would entail a major tax increase, but that would be after the election. We are coming up on Biden’s choice for VP with the Republicans salivating about going after a woman, and a black woman especially. It will be ugly. Another day, another record, the US is best….we have hit 5 million cases of CV-19 … and the rest of the world is amazed. Good deal, Georgia has seen the light with nine cases in a high school have switched to remote online learning. The election draws closer, 83 days to go. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

8 August: MASA not MAGA: By executive order DDT has extended the unemployment benefits at $400 per week, basically matching one of the Democrat’s compromises. However, it includes no aid to states and does include a provision to suspend the payroll tax (Social Security and Medicare). The other piece of idiocy is that DDT promised that if elected, he will do away with the payroll tax permanently, thus killing Social Security and Medicare. Wake up people and vote the nut-job out. Social Security and Medicare are two highly successful programs that have kept older people out of abject poverty. DDT has struck out again. He held a press conference where one of the reporter’s challenged DDT on a lie about Veteran’s choice. Instead of answering, he flipped his gut and headed for the door ending the press conference in a blast of wind. In Ohio, one man attending a church service infected 91 other people. We clearly need to open more churches, bars, party places, schools and get this virus over with. Georgia did open its schools and now 250 students and staff are quarantined after just 1 week of school. This is a good DDT model for the whole country. And Wisconsin breaks a single day record for new CV-19 cases. All this is a fine example of DDT’s exemplary handling of the coronavirus plague. If it were not for his unique management skills, at least 50,000 to 100,000 dead people would still be alive. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

7 August: MASA not MAGA: You can hear the air hiss out of DDT. No, he’s not getting thinner, his gut grows continually, it’s the hot air leaking out of his head and campaign. DDT seems to be relying on his Alzheimer’s test for a validation of reasoning ability. Well, he passed the screening test, but has failed the practical day-to-day reasoning test. Sometime in the next few days, DDT’s administration is going to announce a Congressional bypass executive action to replace the unemployment funds. Part of the plan will be to reduce the payroll tax, which of course will be a big help to the unemployed who pay no payroll tax (Alzheimer’s?). What other gems are in there, who knows? DDT and his henchmen passed up on a Democratic compromise reducing their 3 trillion plan to 2 trillion. HaHaHa….Jerry Falwell Jr got caught with his zipper down while on a sailboat with another woman (not his wife) who also had her zipper down. Horrors! He had to resign from Liberty U for violating dress code. Sigh! Uh Oh, Russia is interfering in our election favoring DDT , while China is favoring Biden. Sad, but model projections show the death toll in the US hitting 300,000 by the end of the year while DDT still claims it will just poof disappear. An appeals court has ruled that House Democrats can force former DDT counsel, Don McGahn, to testify. Good! Another brilliant event is about to occur. 250,000 to 400,000 bikers may descend on a small town in South Dakota. Perhaps CV-19 is a factor in natural selection. We just had an environmental tragedy, since Canada’s last intact ice shelf has collapsed. Just another strong signal that global warming is real and devastating. Of course, DDT is still pushing oil, gas, and coal as the way to obtain energy. Basically, fiddling (playing golf) while the world burns. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

6 August: MASA not MAGA: DDT continues to sink thanks in part to his natural stupidity and CV-19 bungling. The latest is claiming that children do not catch the virus so that schools should be free to open even though evidence says the opposite. DDT has tried to sneak in an extra debate, which the debate commission turned down. Good for them. I still think that Biden should demand tax returns in exchange for debates, and that the debates should be held remotely. DDT has increased the room rate on his failing DC hotel for the week of the GOP nominating speech. Are there really fools that are going to pay? Probably. Finally, there is action to stop the criminal behavior of the NRA (National Rifle Association), and especially Wayne Lapierre and his apparent alleged lavish spending on himself using donor funds. It’s incredible that the Lebanese government allowed so much Russian ammonium nitrate to sit for so long. It’s not clear whether the stuff was used to make roadside bombs or not, but the near atomic bomb like explosion has ruined a huge amount of Beirut and the lives of thousands of survivors. The Ohio governor tested positive just before he was to greet DDT at the airport. Bad timing. Fauci and Brix are warning several cities including Baltimore of major trouble ahead. Right now Maryland and many other states are on a 14-day New York quarantine list. So, don’t plan to visit any time soon. That’s funny, Seth Meyers, after watching the DDT interview on HBO, claims that DDT’s brain is pure cottage cheese. Hard not to agree. DDT is hoping against hope for a magic bullet to help him. This time about having a safe and effective vaccine by September that inoculates 300 million people. Right. Lucky if we have 1/3 of that by get rid of DDT day in January. Here we go again. DDT has slapped a 10% tariff on our neighbor Canada’s aluminum exports to the US. What’s the point of the new trade agreement that DDT negotiated with Canada and Mexico. Apparently not worth the paper it is written on, if DDT arbitrarily violates its terms. This week only 1.2 million new claims for unemployment. Larry Kudlow, White House economics advisor, was crowing about the fact that it was slightly less than last week, as if 1.2 million was a good number. I feel sorry for these new victims with no immediate prospect of help. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

5 August 2020: MASA not MAGA: DDT has got his magic storm marker out again and is predicting the CV-19 will just turn around and go away, “no question”. And, Facebook removed a false DDT post. Good for Facebook. The prediction by an historian who has been right time after time is that Biden will trounce DDT. It is true that Biden has not taken the incipient Alzheimer test. I wonder why DDT took it? Are there symptoms that the test might not have caught, like telling lies when you cannot remember how to tell the truth? To me, that is the first sign of major brain malfunction, and DDT’s has been malfunctioning for a long time, EOI disease (Early Onset Idiocy disease) with no apparent cure. It just gradually gets worse with age. DDT says he will give his acceptance speech illegally at the White House, rules be damned. Looks like the weekly unemployment supplement will be $400 until December, if DDT and the Democrats can agree on a few more “minor” details. If the agreement is not soon, there will be an economic meltdown. In case you have not noticed, food prices have risen dramatically, especially all forms of meat. This is a harbinger of inflation and higher interest rates from the Fed. INcreasing food prices affect the poor dramatically. One person related how $600 kept him and his family going for 40 days. Now, he says, the cost for the same basket is close to $1000. That's bigger than the average meat increases of about 20%.  Biden says he will not travel to the Democratic convention, but will give his acceptance speech remotely. The convention should be scrapped to keep crowds from forming for health reasons. The same for debates, they should be held remotely using Zoom or something secure and equivalent. Don’t worry DDT, someone will set it up for you. Ignorance will not be an excuse. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

4 August: MASA not MAGA: Just watched the Axios HBO interview with the fast talking liar in the White House. After the disastrous interview with Wallace on Fox News, clearly DDT decided not to let the reporter actually ask questions. It was 30 minutes of non-stop BS and answers not related to the questions. Everything was how great he has been in handling the Pandemic with false statistics and comments that 1000 deaths per day is OK because that is the way it is. Everything in the US is the best in the world because he, DDT, has done it like you wouldn’t believe. Personally, it is sickening listening to a con artiest making no pretense at sounding honest. Tucker Carlson of Fox is trying to claim that it must be illegal for Biden to decide that his VP will be a black woman. I guess he is trying to complain discrimination for lack of equal opportunity for whites, Hispanics, Asians, or Italians. China is all fussed up about the Tic Tock deal with some justification. However, given China’s track record with tracking people and causing harm, there is reason to get their software out of the US and other Allied countries. There is chatter in the White House about methods of throwing the election in to the House of Representatives. You should be alarmed at this, since the constitution says each state gets 1 vote, and Republicans have more states than do Democrats. Hopefully, it will not come to this. After railing against mail in ballots, DDT has now changed his tune in Florida and is encouraging mail in ballots. Why? Because Republicans more than Democrats are not likely to vote by mail. Why? Because DDT has been telling them it is a fraud. Good luck changing this, DDT. Now we have to wait for a DDT negotiated deal with the Democrats to get aid out to those that need it and McConnel has said that any such negotiated deal is OK with him. It’s OK with me, but do it fast. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

3 August: MASA not MAGA: Finally, there is a another blow-hard to worry about other than DDT. This one is fierce, but brief, Isaias, hitting the DC area tomorrow and drowning out the moaning from the White House. I expect the damage to be significant, but repairable, unlike the slow-moving destruction caused by DDT while congress is doing what it does best, NOTHING. Not getting the unemployment help out to people in need is immoral. Not helping the states in need is suicidal. Not helping arrange for a smooth election is criminal. DDT is preparing to take ineffective executive action if congress does not act. He wants to reduce the payroll tax (to help the unemployed?). The man is insane. Apparently, Nevada has passed a bill expanding mail in voting and DDT is vowing to challenge the new law in court. This election could be a real mess with the post office being curtailed, efforts to limit mail-in voting, and a severe nationwide shortage of poll workers. On top of that is DDT and the possibility of him challenging his loss with very divisive rhetoric that fires up his quasi-military style base. I could definitely see some violence occurring. DDT is trying to extort money from Microsoft over the Tic Tok deal. DDT hs no shame whatsoever, everything is transactional, even national security. It looks like the NY district attorney is going after DDT and his organization for bank and insurance fraud. It’s abut time they went after him on charges other than his purchasing silence from women as part of his 2016 campaign. This is much bigger that campaign finance laws. It is pretty well know that DDT illegally values his properties higher for bank loans and insurance and lower for tax purposes. DDT dishonest? What a surprise that this criminal enterprise has escaped unscathed for so long. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

2 August: MASA not MAGA: Still no agreement on unemployment benefits caused by CV-19. This it the “Let them starve” Republicans. Pelosi went after them for being condescending over the deadlock. I just feel so sorry for the people who were the working backbone of this nation and now find themselves losing homes and not being able to find food in a nation as wealthy as the US. It’s Sunday and DDT is slowly losing and getting quieter. Dumb as he is, he knows it’s over even though there will be some nauseating campaign stunts. We’ll have to put up with the crap until it’s over in November. What happens between November and January 20 is anyone’s guess. I just hope that the majority of people are as tired of the lies and ignorance as I am. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

1 August 2020: MASA not MAGA: It’s Saturday and all through the country not a sound is being heard, even the rats seem asleep. Of course, there is always some snoring from mumbles (aka DDT). He’s been pretty quiet for DDT. It’s still election fraud, mail in voting, fact denial, and other conspiracies. But, DDT is doing one good thing, he’s banning Tik Tok, the Chinese owned social medium that is so popular. Microsoft may buy it. As for Biden, we are waiting for the other shoe to drop in his vice-presidential pick. Lot of pointless speculation filling the papers. My pick would be Michele Obama, who is not in the running and almost certainly does not want the job. Federal unemployment talks (Republican to Republican) are continuing without fruition even though people are in jeopardy. The contrast between Obama and DDT was stark during the funeral. You saw a normal sensitive human being (Obama) give a rational-emotional eulogy instead of a bombastic self-promoting speech that DDT would have given if there. By not attending, DDT has given up on the black vote entirely. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

31 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT did civilization a favor by not attending the John Lewis funeral. If he had attended, DDT’s mere presence and what he might have said would have turned a celebration of a life well led into a mockery. DDT is not capable of appreciating another’s life and accomplishments. Of course, by now you know that DDT floated the idea of moving the elections. The idea was floated not to actually move the election day, but to open the false discussion of fake voter fraud and how the election, if he loses, might not be valid. At least this time, there were Republican’s in the Senate that stood up for keeping the election intact. These same Republicans also participate in voter suppression, so I do not give them much credit. DDT is talking action against China by ordering them to sell Tik Tok. This, I am sure has China shaking in their boots as they lay claim to the South China Sea and threaten to invade Taiwan. Of course, DDT does not dare to confront Putin on very obvious violations of behavior relative to our elections and causing conflict between groups in the US. DDT totally let slide the question of Putin paying bounties for the killing if US military to the Taliban. A decent President would have at least brought up the topic and investigated it thoroughly. At home, DDT’s administration through Homeland Security has been behaving horribly in using federal agents to arrest peaceful demonstrators. Their very presence has caused the violence that they ostensibly were there to prevent. Last night, they were gone, and the violence stopped. Now DDT is threatening Portland with “a very strong offensive force”. He clearly does not like the idea that the protests have turned peaceful. The Senate is deadlocked on extending aid to the unemployed. This is not just Democrat-Republican problems, but strong disagreement within the Republicans themselves over cutting aid to the point where ordinary people will lose housing and not be able to feed themselves. It’s appalling and immoral during this CV-19 pandemic. DDT still has no coherent policy of dealing with the rising death toll and rising hospitalization. CV-19 is now rapidly spreading into the midwestern states, the so called “red” states. Hopefully, this will change minds come November and DDT will be history. Oh good. Another scandal. Jared Kushner got 3 million dollars from DDT administration aid programs. Hopefully, he gets more than a “bad-boy” slap in the wrists for this one. The DDT campaign has stopped spending on ads after spending 230 million (Biden spent 95 million) in ineffective material. I suspect the revised campaign will turn really nasty. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

30 July: MASA not MAGA: Today belongs to John Lewis, a totally positive man to whom we owe so much. His push for equality and voting rights has been as successful as any one man could possibly achieve. He started from really poor childhood conditions to becoming an outstanding congressman. Inbetween he was a brave driving force for equality and justice. Today was his funeral with apprecciative speeches from 3 presidents, George Bush, Bill Clinton, and most movingly Barack Obama. Obama’s speech addressed the ideals in the long active life of John Lewis and appropriate comments on our present precarious political situation. I am not going to repeat the details of the life of John Lewis, just wish that his last wishes for us come true in this generation. Read John Lewis’s last essay appearing as an Op-Ed in the New York Times. It says it all. As for John Lewis, remember him for his accomplishments. Hope that his work continues with new leaders and the support of our government and our people. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her to save what is left of the Supreme Court. Get rid of the racists and bigots that are a plague in our lives and get a country that works together for the ideals that founded the USA.

29 July: MASA not MAGA: Tired yesterday. Tired of the lies and misbehavior of the DDT administration including the AG Barr. What has become clear from newspaper and TV reports is that DDT systematically repeats the lines and lies from conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones. The latest was DDT repeating the idiocy on COVID-19 from a particular doctor in California claiming that cancer in women comes from dream sex with demons. The amazing thing is that DDT is so used to lying that he does this with a straight sincere face. It’s disgusting as the US has now hit 150,000 deaths. McConnell is holding firm on including liability protection for businesses in the bill for economic aid to the unemployed. Amazing. DDT has decided to skip the John Lewis funeral in the capital building. Obama will be there and present a eulogy. Stupid decision on the part of DDT. Some good news. It appears that some federal officers are leaving Portland. We’ll see how many and what effect the reduction has on the violence they caused. Congressman Louie Gohmert tested positive for coronavirus and then gave a TV interview where he blamed wearing a mask for the CV-19 infection. DDT’s campaign has halted new ad buys in Michigan in since the polls show Joe Biden with a widening lead in the state. Let’s hope that this is not the only state where DDT just gives up and agonizes of the fact that he is a loser. DDT is all in a panic as to why Fauci has a higher approval rating than he does. I wonder why Fauci is so well liked when DDT is just rated as stupid. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

 

28 July: MASA not MAGA: Taking the day off today. Tired about same old same old. Sure things happened, but they are not much different that things that happended the day before or probably tomorrow. The big thing is that DDT keeps slipping further towad oblivion, but the slip is gradual even if steady. Here's hopikng for a blowout in November. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

27 July: MASA not MAGA: Today is much like yesterday. The Republican Senate continues to be dysfunctional. Nothing new there. They are passing a bill to reduce payments to $200 down from $600, which will make it almost impossible for people out of work (rent vs food). DDT doesn’t give a damn. All he wants is chaos. Reading today about difficulties with voting by mail points out that the states have a lot of work to do in the next 100 days. The states and the US post office have a long way to go. The big thing that is obvious is that election results are not going to be available in 24 hours. This will give DDT the opportunity to cry fraud. Don’t believe it. Amazing, DDT has said that he will NOT pay respects to John Lewis in the capital. What a loser. Portland is becoming a self-fulfilling prophesy with violence spiraling out of control and the federal control police totally ineffective except for causing more rioting. DDT needs to pull his federal police out. There is a dance playing out in slow motion between an incompetent DDT and the controlling of the coronavirus. The US is almost at 150,000 deaths, most of which belong to DDT. Of course, it is not all DDT, there are people who follow DDT in defiance of wearing masks to protect people from spreading CV-19. Interesting twist on US-China relations. China has been mailing seeds to people in the hope that they will be planted. The suspicion is that they may be an invasive species, so, do not plant them, burn them. Vaccines are coming along rapidly, but who knows if they will work. Phase 3 trials should answer some of that questions. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

26 July: MASA Not MAGA: The Republicans are about to give people in need a skinny help deal that is not enough to pay rent and put some food on the table. Evictions are next, or freezing evictions and put the pain on the building owners. Either way, there is a lot of hurt coming. The Democratic House passed a much more generous package that is needed to prevent an economic crisis. When people are out on the street homeless, perhaps the Republicans will wake up. The DDT Portland mess grinds on with more clashes between protesters and the DDT secret police. Now it is in cities across the US. DDT’s goal is being reached, that is, sowing chaos just before an election. I just hope this is losing strategy. Thirty states as now seeing a surge in CV-19 cases with DDT fiddling away time with a totally uncoordinated non-science approach. We are heading rapidly towards 200,000 deaths. Strangely, stock futures today are up anticipating more stimulus to the economy and the announcement of corporate earnings. Vaccine trials are under way in a big way. We should know withing a year if the vaccines are effective. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

25 July: MASA not MAGA: Just finished Mary Trump’s little missile. I am now surprised at the reviews praising this book aside from the fact that it is another thorn in DDT's side. If it were not for the vileness of DDT, this book would have carried little weight. It is basically a tale of a dysfunctional family living in the midst of great wealth overseen by a tyrannical cold-minded grandfather and two weak sons, one of whom is now president. The other, Fred Jr, seemed to be a decent sort who was totally overwhelmed by the cruelty of his father and then undone by a major drinking problem. In between are little stories of DDT being propped up by his father Fred against perpetual failure and lying. Beyond the description of the dysfunctional family, this book contains little of a factual nature. Did it take courage to write the book, yes? The real courage was in the delivery to the New York Times of the family’s financial papers showing all the possible cheating and fraud. Even though the NYT did a long expose of DDT and his possibly illegal activities, Mary Trump would have been well served in this book by using some of that material with her personal spin. That said, the forward to the book is a powerful psychological indictment of DDT, and the end is an angry repeat of DDT’s inadequacies, which are now evident to anyone paying attention and with some intelligence. Most of the book is about a weak family that was incapable of standing on their own two feet. Even Mary, the author of this book, spent years deluded as what was going on between DDT and capturing the family fortune for himself. I giver her credit for coming out now, but the book is short on real information need to bring DDT down to size. One can only hope DDT loses the November election and spares the US another 4 years of malevolent incompetent behavior solely for his own benefit and ego massage. Her summary is right on, we are being led by a 3-year old dressed on an adult’s body, complete with pouts, deception, and rage. Headline news: Florida now has more CV-19 cases than NY while California leads the nation. It is likely the devastation will sweep northward and engulf the rest of the states. What the Autumn and winter will bring with the combination of CV-19 and the flue is anyone’s guess. DDT’s no-so-secret police are still making fools of themselves in Portland ineffectually incensing the protesters and accomplishing nothing useful. Spain has cases soaring out of control. Will it hit the rest of Europe and bring things to a halt again? There is a tragedy about to unfold as the unemployment checks stop while McConnel dithers. Rent and mortgages will go unpaid, food will not be on the table, and evictions will start in earnest. It will be a sad story unfolding on TV. Unfortunately, it is a long road to November and then to January 20 when sanity might return to the US and its government. News of a sort, The Mercer family (oxycontin) is backing off from supporting DDT in 2020 after supporting him in 2016, not that DDT needs the extra campaign money this time around. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

24 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT is getting gassed again by his own effluvia. You can actually see it float about his head every time he opens his mouth. Even a mask won’t help. Lies and false humility will penetrate any mask. He is now acting humble about CV-19 at the same time as trying to pull funding from effective containment measures and schools. Our hypocrite in chief has not a clue as to why his support is melting. Right now he is losing inexorably his own office and likely the senate for the Republicans. The BS is not working anymore. Let’s hope it holds until the election. The Lincoln project has a parody of DDT taking the Alzheimer test and bragging about it. It’s a riot. No one ever accused him of having Alzheimer’s disease, just plain dumb and uninformed with an ego the size of his gut. Mary Trump has it right, this is the first test he passed on his own. I’m not sure it qualifies him for anything except, perhaps, going to jail after he is done playing president. Experts are calling for the country to shut down again to stem the rise of CV-19. If we do, th economic toll will be awful, and it cold have been avoided if we had anything resembling leadership as president. Oh good, DDT’s campaign manager claims that the polls understate the level of support for DDT. That should buck up the spirits of DDT who both dishes out BS and inhales it raw. DDT might be doing something useful. He is about to sign executive orders that may lower drug prices to international levels by creating an index of what other countries pay and locking our prices to those prices. If so, that would be major reform. I’ll believe it when I see it. Apparently, a US F-15 fighter came within meters of an Iranian passenger jet and scared the passengers and pilot causing injuries onboard. If true, it was stupid on the part of the US pilot. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

23 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT is getting scared. Scared enough to start sounding reasonable about CV-19. He’s cancelled his convention in Florida, is recommending that people wear masks, dropped mandatory school reopening, and is relying on the development of vaccines. Of course, we have the renewal of the aid package that is tied up with republican squabbling in the Senate. And we have the expiration of the $600 per week aid package tomorrow. Even a small break is going to cause havoc for people out of work to pay mortgages, buy food, pay rent, etc. It remains to be seen how quickly the Republicans can come up with a package, negotiate with a very generous package from the House, and get it past a possible DDT veto. DDT announced troops going to more cities (Operation Legend). Not good. While I think Michael Cohen is a sleaze ball, putting back in jail for writing a book is pure politics on the part of DDT and Barr. The judge was right releasing him back to serve his sentence in his house and let him finish his book. CV-19 is increasing again as is unemployment, 1.4 million new unemployed. The US now has 1.4 million cases. It looks like Biden has built a big lead in Florida. Let’s hope it lasts. The US-China conflict continues to heat up with Pompeo making a fiery speech hammering China along with naval forces in the China sea. A Canadian court has ruled that the US is not safe for asylum seekers, which is true. With DDT and his “secret police”, the US is not safe for anyone. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump                       PINO = President in Name Only         

 MASA = Make America Sane again          h.a. = Horse's A--                           

TBO = Throw the Bum Out

22 July: MASA not MAGA: I have to give the regular citizens of Portland credit coming out in large numbers to basically push the DDT stormtroopers back into the Federal Courthouse, the so-called “Wall of Moms”. This situation is so unstable. Someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed. Then there is DDT’s threat to send Homeland Security troops to other cities. Reading an article about this plan, it seems to be page out of dictators’ approach to turning the population against each other. Thinking of Syria’s Assad and the start of the civil war in Syria, there is an uncomfortable parallel. I know this is the US and not Syria, but we do have radical elements (neo Nazis, white supremacists, anarchists, etc.) in our society that could take advantage of an unstable situation and start bloodshed. Someone described this action by DDT as the tail wagging the dog. Sort of the equivalent to starting a war to distract from problems at home. Given what is going on with China and Iran, the war issue is not that far fetched for a person who has his own interests at heart rather than the US’ interest. DDT just announced injection of hundreds of stormtroopers into Chicago, where they are intensely unwelcome. There are similar plans to send HS troops to New York and other big cities. This is dangerous. Of course, DDT is up to small irritating stuff as well, telling the census takers not to count non-citizens, a move so obviously against the constitution (count all persons) and against common sense. How is the census bureau going to know who is a citizen or not? Interesting, the message of DDT to Ghislaine Maxwell, “wish her well”, is potentially a message not to talk about DDT, since he met her many times. Who knows what secrets lie there? At the moment Biden is leading DDT by 8 percentage points with a big advantage among undecided voters. Let’s hope the margin only increases as November comes closer. We need a landslide to make sure that DDT cannot claim fraud in a close election. DDT is finally saying that the CV-19 crises could get worse, a new position he has been forced to take by his increasing unpopularity. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

21 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT fatigue has set in. I just could not write about all the awful things DDT is doing and planning to do to our democracy by aping dictators from Putin to Assad. If I could fast forward to November, I would in a heartbeat and get this mess over with.

20 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT is threatening to send federal troops to major cities to quell peaceful protests. This is going to backfire big time on DDT, who seems to think this is Russia, not the United States. The pictures of Federal police in Portland are disgusting, turning an essentially peaceful protest into a violet one. The sight of women forming a line in front of the Federal police, just daring them to do some thing stupid, was scary. Come November, he must go, even if we have to put up with him until 20 January. It looks like Maryland, and Anne Arundel county in particular, is experiencing a sharp increase in CV-19. This is not good, given the explosive nature of exponential viral infection growth. Teacher unions in Florida are suing the Governor about school reopening in the midst of a crises. I hope they win. Headline in The Guardian: “Trump consults Bush torture lawyer on how to skirt law and rule by decree.” The article goes on to say, ““If the court really believes what it just did, then it just handed President Trump a great deal of power, too,” Yoo, a professor at Berkeley Law, said.“The supreme court has said President Obama could [choose not to] enforce immigration laws for about 2 million cases. And why can’t the Trump administration do something similar with immigration – create its own … program, but it could do it in areas beyond that, like healthcare, tax policy, criminal justice, inner city policy. With someone like DDT, this could be very dangerous. When is the Senate going to find some backbone to stop this would be tyrant? Kanye West is going crazy literally in his unreal campaign for president. The $600 unemployment payment is about to expire. There are proposals to extend the help, but there is a lot of dispute about the amount and the requirements. There is also a desire to reduce the payroll tax (read social security). This will help the employed, but not anyone else. Airlines are starting to lay off huge numbers of workers (Southwest 17,000 workers). With a resurgence of CV-19, expect more layoffs. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

19 July: MASA not MAGA: Things are not sane. We need to become sane again. DDT when asked if he would respect the election results refused to say he would accept them. It’s to the point where he is threatening the very fabric of our democracy. This incompetent sociopath has got to go. Fortunately, DDT’s behavior is unifying the US, unifying against DDT. The latest is DDT trying to block funds for virus testing and tracing. He literally said that testing increases the number of cases. Really? Some bad news is that an Israeli doctor has come down with CV-19 a second time suggesting that a vaccine may not work long term. DDT thinks he can paint Biden as a creature of the radical left. It won’t work, Biden is too well known for DDT to be able to re-characterize him. DDT is a loser, bigtime. Europe is considering a $2 trillion CV-19 package but are fighting over the details with the richer countries wanting some concessions, such as not destroying democracy. The Netherlands insists that rule of law must be one of the conditionalities to provide funds. Hungry is opposed. With Britain gone from the EU, the financial hit is larger in the remaining countries. Then we have the unstable Kanye West announced that he is also running for President. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

18 July: MASA not MAGA: The virus is slowly spreading into the northeast again with noticeable increases in Maryland and New Jersey (I don’t know about Pennsylvania). So far, it is slightly scary, but not serious. With the loser in chief, DDT, screwing things up, there is no telling what might happen as the weather turns colder in the Autumn and we face the dual threats of CV-19 and the flu. DDT will just tell us not to worry, since there are too many people in the US already. Biden is warning about attempts by Russia to influence the election again in 2020. It’s the least of our worries. The biggest worry is that DDT might attempt to negate the election or delay voting. Either would be a disaster. Right now I want Justice Ginsburg to hang in there to outlast DDT or we will have a right-wing court that is out of control., and a court that Roberts (anything but a liberal) will not be able to keep sane. You can see the degree of ineptitude in the White House as it seeks to block money for CV-19 testing and contact tracing. These are the things that have worked elsewhere, but the loser in chief will not listen. Mary Trump is right. We have a non-functioning sociopath as President. He lost at business, and now is making the whole US lose, not just to CV-19, but also to the world. It’s the weekend, so not much is happening except for the deployment of DDT’s secret police in Portland arresting people without cause. We’ve got to get rid of this loser wannabe dictator. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

17 July: MASA not MAGA: Chris Wallace of FOX news called out DDT for a bald-faced lie about defunding police. Lies are nothing new for DDT. What is new is that FOX called him out about it. Embarrassing loser. DDT has called out the secret police to arrest people peacefully protesting in Portland Oregon. Federal officers driving around in unmarked vans with rifles hauling people off the streets. These feds are neither wanted nor asked for. What do you think this is, DDT, a police state like Russia or China? Crazy DDT has removed CV-19 data from CDC and basically buried it in HHS disrupting the availability of data for the US public. It looks like Russia is making attempts to hack the research results for a CV-19 vaccine. Some wit proclaimed, “if you find anything useful, let us know”. Mary Trump is continuing to discuss her book. The book is devasting, but the interviews are even more so. In the interviews, she lets her opinions hang out about just how dangerous DDT is to the US, dangerous and incompetent to be president. The bad news is that Justice Ginsburg’s cancer has recurred. She’s under treatment that looks successful. Let’s she outlasts DDT. The economy is teetering, airlines are about to lay off huge number of employees, and the local economies are shutting down again as CV-19 continues to rise. Meanwhile, stocks continue to rise on the hopes that a vaccine will become available soon. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

16 July: MASA not MAGA: Russia is hacking twitter accounts and COVID-19 vaccine research. Next will be the election trying to get DDT re-elected. It never stops and there is no obvious practical means of retaliation. Between Russia and China, with an incompetent in charge in the US, the mess never stops. Hopefully, with DDT out of the Whitehouse and in the Bighouse (orange is the new black) we can start to straighten ourselves out with the help of allies. DDT has dumoed his campaign manager and replaced him with someone no better. The real problem is DDT runs his own campaign with chaos. Read Mary Trump’s book and it will all be understandable even if deplorable. The Republican pro DDT governor of Georgia has issued and edict aimed at preventing cities and towns from enacting their own mask rules. This in a state where CV-19 is running wild. It makes no sense. This is now DDT’s virus and deaths. It’s all on him, the PINO. With a real President, we would now be on our way back to normal as is Europe. Another stimulus bill is in the works amounting to about 1.3 trillion, an unimaginably large amount of money, but likely to not be enough. Oh goodie. DDT press secretary Kayleigh McNINNY (spelling I know), has just issued a well thought out statement that “science shold not stand in the way of school reopening”. This because someone told DDT that the economy would not really start unless children were back in schools catching CV-19 so as to get their parents sick. Mart Trump has sold almost 1 million copies of her book on the first day of sales. I’ve got one and it is a good well written read. The Supreme court is allowing Florida to restrict former felons from voting based on them possibly owing money to the state, even though the state of Florida has no idea of how much they owe. DDT is rolling back environmental rules as fast as he can to allow the building of roads and pipelines regardless of their impact on air and water quality. DDT is a man you can count on to screw things up. Hooray. RBG is doing better. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

15 July: MASA not MAGA: Let’s see Jeff Sessions lost his bid to regain his Seante seat to a far right winf football coach, Tommy Tuberville, giving the Democrats a chance at retaining the seat in November. DDT has fallen to 11 points behind the very presidential Joe Biden. Biden is proposing changes that are a little to the left of his former positions that should spell significant change for the US, especially the plans to reduce fossil fuels to near zero. The governor of Oklahoma, who rejected the use of masks, is not infected with CV-19. I wish him well in his bout with stupidity. Looks like Collins (the hypocrite) of Maine is slipping behind. More important is that RBG is out of the hospital and will be back in the court shortly. Phew! Funny, DDT’s campaign lawyer, who dismissed voting by mail, has done so himself 3 times. DDT as his presidency declines and fades is using the last months to degrade the environment both the real environment and the one inside the White House. He just dumped his campaign manager Parscale in favor of TBD while taking time to dump on Fauci in a stupid manner. Fauci is under attack from midgets and is giving back as good as he gets. The best idiocy is that DDT is blocking the CDC from getting COVID-19 data from hospitals and switching it to Homeland Security a bastion of medical expertise. Enough garbage for today. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

14 July: MASA not MAGA: Two years from the start of this blog and counting. I hope to end it in January 2021. Amazing, the administration dropped the student deportation rule for those attending class remotely. I wonder what caused that? It certainly was an unpopular rule with universities and teachers. I just started reading the Mary Trump book. I cannot tell much so far, just a few pages in, but I can tell you that it is well written and easy to read. More on that in a later edition. CV-19 cases continue to surge, day after day. Florida’s governor was severely heckled for doing nothing while people are dying. ON the upside, Joe Biden unveiled a 2 trillion dollar plan that included getting mostly off fossil fuels in 15 years and onto renewable energy sources. Bernie Sanders was interviewed and as his usual personality would have it, could not fully endorse the plan even though it is almost exactly what he wanted. Bernie is the ultimate my way or the highway type person. He would rather lose than give an inch. OMG. DDT is saying that flying the confederate flag is a free speech issue. Well, he’s right, is the flag for bigots and racists. A piece of bad news is that Ruth Bader Ginsburg is hospitalized for an infection. For the sake of the nation, she has to survive until 20 Jan 2021 when DDT is out of office. As usual, DDT is shooting off his mouth based on the gas in his gut, saying that yes, white people die also at the hands of the police. This is certainly true, but so beside the point that it demonstrates the sociopath making such a statement. The point is that the death rate, harassment rate, and abuse rate is so disproportionate that the situation is intolerable. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

13 July: MASA not MAGA: This is actually being written on the morning of the 14th using information from the 13th. DDT’s BS is so pervasive and predictable that it gets tiring to write about it at night in some days. Yesterday’s quoting of a TV personality claiming that everyone is lying about COVID-19. If is tiring to see the same ignorance over and over on the part of DDT. DDT’s handling of CV-19 is such a failure by not using the power of the Federal government to increase supplies and coordinate the effort. Instead DDT interferes at every step. Right now the forecasts for return to normal life are a distant future. The polls continue to run against DDT and the Republicans. It’s still a long way to November, so nothing should be taken for granted. Nothing is going to get resolved until DDT is gone and the Senate is no longer ruled by McConnell. And then there is the stupid foreign student rule that is a DDT ploy to try to force schools to open strictly for his own benefit in the election. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

12 July: MASA not MAGA: Vote for sanity, vote for Biden. Not that I am biased in anyway. Another day another record, at least in Florida, that is, and probably the whole US. Did you notice that the death rate is climbing? These are DDT deaths and the DDT virus. No longer the Chinese virus, these little devils belong to DDT, lock, stock, and barrel. DDT is now acting in the open like the tinpot wannabe dictator that he will become if he is reelected. It’s bad enough already with his pardoning of accomplices in his crimes during the 2016 election. Another 4 years and the restraints are totally off. Just watch out that he doesn’t try to subvert the 2020 election with a false national emergency. The Republicans are slowly convincing the party stalwarts not to vote by mail. This is a fine case of voter suppression that may backfire on Republicans. Mueller just wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post basically condemning DDT for his attacks on Mueller and the report. If you have not seen it yet, watch the video of the reading of the Mueller report by fine actors. It’s both hilarious and sad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeGZ-xL6FNU on YouTube word for word, nothing added. It beats reading the dry prose in the report. Finally, we hear from the US Surgeon General that if we all wear facemasks we may be able to contain CV-19 in a few weeks. WOW. Glad someone finally figured that one out. I’m still smarting from DDT’s historic corruption commuting the sentence of Roger Stone. I hope the Biden administration brings him in for testimony after the election and see if he lies again. New crime, new trial, and new sentence. If he tells the truth, then DDT goes down. New crime, new trial, and new sentence. Either way, the US wins. DDT is throwing a temper tantrum at Romney and Toomey for criticizing the Roger Stone fiasco. Just keep it up, DDT. Looks like John Wayne has bit the dust base in a resurfacing of racist remarks. Pretty soon no one will be left standing. There is more today, but enough is enough. Oh, I almost forgot. I just watched a 60-minutes piece on the downing of a Dutch jetliner over Ukraine by Russian soldiers. Russia denies everything even though the evidence is incontrovertible. Let’s hear it for DDT’s hero, Putin. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

11 July: MASA not MAGA: It’s the middle of July already and we are all breathlessly waiting for both shoes to drop in November. The summer cannot go quickly enough. I want to see DDT go down in flames, a blowout. Just read a Republican article claiming that Biden is almost identical to DDT, so why not just vote for DDT. No one, except another psychopath, could be the same as DDT, and Biden certainly is not a psychopath. Biden's “Buy American” campaign bothers me a little. Buying American is not possible in the current world but buying more American is possible. We need some good American cameras, not Sony and Nikon, and good computers, not Apple and Dell (they used to be American), and really good American made tools. So what if they cost double and are only half as good, at least at first. Being serious, Biden’s plan to help with manufacturing and with research is a good start. Let’s hope it works the way it is intended, and not have big companies take the money and do nothing. Warning, the world is about to end. Sorry to have to let you know here, but DDT was seen today wearing a mask. Boy did that look silly. Made him look like the wimp he really is. With the mask on he looked normal with that idiot smirk covered up. Yes, I know, Roger Stone is a free felon. Even Barr appeared to be against this crazy move to subvert the justice system. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

10 July: MASA not MAGA: I cannot say that today is a day that will go down as infamy because with DDT every day is such a day. Today he outdid himself by commuting the sentence of Roger Stone, a man that could bring him, DDT, down. Hopefully, when Biden is President, he will reopen the investigation and have Roger S testify again. If he tells the truth, well all’s good. But, if he lies again, convict him anew of lying. It will not be double jeopardy, since the lies will be new lies and there will be no one there to commute the sentence. The same is true for other DDT toadies. The truth will set them free. Sometime next year, after January 20, we should get to see those tax returns and the almost certain fraud he pulled on the IRS and the banks. DDT used the nonexistent weather excuse to cancel a poorly attended campaign stop. It doesn’t really matter, the less we see and hear from DDT the better. CV-19 it ticking upward everywhere, especially in the south and west where the governors were persuaded to open their states early and foolishly. These governors deserve to get kicked out at their next election. The President of GOYA foods has claimed that the US is blessed to have DDT as President. I think he really means damned, but he said blessed. Now GOYA is blessed with a boycott of it products intended for the Hispanic community in response for a blessing on a racist anti-Hispanic president. The DDT vs China conflict is heating up thanks to DDT’s belligerence and now claiming that the trade deal he negotiated is not a priority. DDT is trying to use a simpleton’s mental acuity test to demonstrate how good he is. All that is shows is that he is not senile. We knew that. He may be evil and ego centered, but not unaware of his surroundings. Being able to repeat a few words does not qualify you as President. First, you have to understand the words, not just repeat them. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

9 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT is claiming that New York is a hell hole because the NY district attorney is after his butt on tax evasion and bank fraud and now has access to DDT’s tax returns. It may be some time before we learn what is in there, but still it means DDT as president is not immune from a criminal investigation. DDT has still not filed his annual financial statement to congress as obligated. Michael Cohen is back in prison for violating his terms of release. Apparently his writing of a book and talking about DDT is a violation. Oh No…. are we in for another pandemic? Unknown pneumonia’ deadlier than coronavirus sweeping Kazakhstan, Chinese embassy warns. If true, things could get crazy scary in a hurry. The Michael Flynn trial is still hanging in there as the judge asks the full appeals court to hear the case ordering him to drop the charges. The full court is not packed with DDT appointees. Businesses are closing and permanent jobs are disappearing while the stock market keeps going up. Oh yes, and the eastern half of Oklahoma, including Tulsa, belongs to native Americans according to the Supreme court based on 1800’s treaties. Should be interesting straightening this one out. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

8 July: MASA not MAGA: It never ends with DDT. He is now defying the CDC and attempting to force them to revise their recommendations on school openings. It was pathetic tonight when the head of CDC was on TV apologizing for the guidance they just issued and promising to issue new more DDT friendly guidance. DDT and his insane statement that 99% of people who catch CV-19 have no problems. Mary Trump is right in her book that DDT is clinically insane, an egomaniac and sociopath. As presidents go, DDT is the biggest loser of all time, bar none. School reopenings are a real problem with reduced state budgets caused by CV-19. Costs are going to go up to do this safely in a time when money is really short. Betsy Devos is looking to withholding federal funds from schools that do not fully reopen. Right now the Senate (read McConnell) is blocking any aid to states. Got to get him out of the Senate, or at the very least out of the Senate majority leadership. Latest poll numbers show DDT’s approval rating dropping fast among independents. This is good news for Biden. Right now the most effective ads against DDT are being run by the Republican Lincoln Project. They are pointed and funny. You can watch them on YouTube. We’ve hit a new record surpassing the 3 million CV-19 cases, and that is only less than 1% of the US population. We can do better with DDT’s leadership and reach at least 5 or 10%. Yes! And set another world record, best ever in the history of the world. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

7 July: MASA not MAGA: Mary Trump’s book has leaked on purpose. It contains DDT scandals. One of then is that DDT paid a friend to take his college entrance tests and paid someone else to take his high school exams. It’s amazing what money can buy. There’s lots more but nothing that is going to bring DDT down. It will just make DDT look foolish and weak. The Republican Lincoln Projects ads are becoming quite effective at undermining DDT, now claiming that his inner circle has turned against him. DDT has decided to pressure schools to reopen fully this fall. Hopefully, most districts will not fall in line, or there will be a lot sick people. Harvard just announced full remote learning, but no decrease in tuition. And what about those international students at Harvard who will no have to be deported. Just a few more months with the egotistical fool in charge. Good for Canada’s Trudeau. He is refusing to talk to DDT about the new trade deal. Why bother, when Biden will be there shortly. Just have to wait for Mary Trump’s book to come out in the stores to the public. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

6 July: MASA not MAGA: Bad news: It looks like the virus causing CV-19 can travel by air and infect people. This basically means that any indoors environment is not safe without wearing a good mask and social distancing, and even then, there is risk. Of course, big mouth (aka DDT) had to sound off to trivialize the science claiming that 99% of infections are harmless (BS meter is on 11 out of 10). Fauci now believes the immunity obtained by recovering and from a vaccine will be short lived. This means that we may be living with CV-19 for a long time until there is effective medication. The other scourge this past weekend was gun violence killing so many people in Chicago and small numbers elsewhere. OMG. DDT is saying that the world views the US as a leader in coronavirus. Well, he’s right. The US is leading in infections and the rate of spread. If it were not for DDT we would not be in the lead. For the moment it appears that DDT’s support is slipping further. The White House is refusing to take a stance on the Confederate flag. What a surprise with our racist-in-chief. We are all waiting for the other shoe to fall with 1) Ghislaine Maxwell and 2) Mary Trump’s book (now moved up in release). Should be interesting to see how DDT starts bouncing off the walls in the White house. Fox News apparently edited a picture of DDT with Epstein and Maxwell to remove DDT from the picture. Fox claims the edit was an accident. Right! As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

5 July: MASA not MAGA: Oh boy. DDT is making stuff up again, saying that 99% of COVID-19 cases are harmless. The BS index is at 11 on a scale of 1 to 10. It seems that no one else agrees with this gut gas. The DDT version of 4 July was divisive and racist in the extreme. This man has got to be kicked out of office in a tidal wave of votes. Today was better, we only had 10,059 new cases of CV-19 instead of 11,000. C’mon party goers, you are slacking off. Real good news is that a number or prominent Republicans are promising to back Biden in November. Now if only 3 Senators with courage were to caucus with the Democrats in the Senate, we could stop a lot of DDT in his tracks and get rid of McConnell is one fell swoop. Not to be, I am afraid. Courage is not a Republican attribute. They would rather kiss up, than be honest. The Epstein scandal is about to pop into the news in a big way if Maxwell sings. There are a list and videos that apparently exist. Should be interesting in a nasty way. Nothing much else today. It’s been rather quiet. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

4 July: MASA not MAGA: DDT is going all out to be divisive and fire up his base base. He talked today about schools teaching children to hate America, about a liberal left wing plot to overthrow America, and tried to pronounce totalitarianism but failed. From the Independent” “Michael McFaul, professor of political science at Stanford University, said: “Trump obviously has no idea what words like fascism and totalitarianism mean. To those who wrote that speech, shame on you. To those that cleared on this speech, shame on you. Perhaps the most un- American speech ever delivered by an American president, on the eve of July 4th.”” It was a shameful speech by an ignorant racist president who does not deserve to be in a job that he is totally unable to perform. CV-19 continues to surge with Florida and Texas leading the way. Their hospitals are near capacity and soon they will have to ration medical care leaving older people to die in favor of the young who have a better chance of surviving. The lack of caring of some people not wearing face masks and not maintaining distance is deplorable. The new message from DDT is to learn to live with the sickness and death so as to maintain the economy and help his selfish reelection. This evening is DDT’s “great” speech to the nation on July 4th. I expect more of the same garbage from the nation’s loser in chief. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

3 July: MASA not MAGA: One day before the big BOOM BANG, although not so much this year. I miss getting together with people and family. It’s sad to see the virus running so rampant and cutting off the normal social life. Looks like DDT is forcing his way onto the Mt Rushmore Park for a photo op against the wishes of the people living there. The Sioux are quite upset at having a fireworks display on their grounds. Also, DDT is spending an enormous amount to taxpayer money having the overflights with jet fighters and bombers. All this to satisfy an overblown sense of importance. Hopefully, this is the last year of such imbecility in the face of a pandemic. The Ghislaine Maxwell (Epstein) probe is scaring a lot of people, not the least British Royalty and I am sure a lot of other prominent people. Perhaps DDT could just pardon her and put the whole thing to rest because there is the possibility that DDT was involved also. We are getting into another spat with China over the Hong Long betrayal. At least this time, if we get them angry it is for a good cause. If this spills over into Taiwan, I wonder if DDT will have the courage to stand up to China. Mary Trump is claiming fraud on the settlement non-disclosure agreement. It sort of doesn’t matter anymore. The book will get published and released. That cat is out of the bag. The Supreme Court just came down on the side of restrictive voting rights in Alabama that will also apply elsewhere, especially to mail-in ballots. Truly sad. DDT is challenging Biden to take a cognitive test for dummies. Perhaps they should take a “Where is Norway” test and is it part of Russia, or a little arithmetic test like what was the percentage of your income that you paid in taxes. The test that DDT took just shows he as dumb as he always has been, no deterioration and no improvement. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

2 July: MASA not MAGA: Vote for sanity, vote for Biden. Nasty quote from the Independent, “Polls show Trump isn't the president America wants. But spiking coronavirus rates show he is the president we deserve. You fools (you know who you are) voted for the incompetent liar with the idea that you were sticking your finger in the eye of the establishment. Instead you stuck you finger in your own eye. Ok, you screwed yourself and your grandkids, now fix it. DDT is still claiming that CV-19 will magically disappear one night and all will be normal again. Vote in November and perhaps in January things will be heading back to some semblance of normalcy. The Texas governor has finally issued a CV-19 decree that will be effective. From this day forward Texans will only breath in, no breathing out, and the problem will go away. He is also requiring that masks be worn. Better late than never with CV-19 taking off in the South and West. If this keeps up, it won’t be long before it is back in the Northeast as well. DDT believes he is losing because he has not been racist enough, Go for it DDT. Students are holding CV-19 parties paying whoever catches the virus a bonus. Great. Enough for today. I’m sure the great fool, our loser in chief, will supply more material on another day. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

1 July 2020: MASA not MAGA: Now we know it is true, the bounty for US troops. DDT has called it fake news and a hoax, which verifies it as absolutely true. DDT always lies, so the opposite is the most likely answer. Congress is starting investigations so that we may find out the truth of this. Either way it turns out is bad for DDT. Either he is lying and was informed, or his staff kept it from him by only giving him a written report knowing that DDT does not read. The only reason DDT knows about it now is that it appeared on TV after the New York Times published it. It appears that his staff may have really kept him in the dark to avoid his erratic behavior. Good parts so the country are shutting down again. It just going to be a little while before it spreads further, and more shutdowns occur. Also, rents are coming due soon as people keep losing employment and falling behind. This should cascade through the economy causing more problems. Meanwhile the stock market keeps rising thinking that Congress is going to pump large amounts of cash onto the economy. Perhaps they are right. Our idiot in chief is threatening to veto the defense spending bill because it wants to rename bases named after traitors. This is DDT playing to the most hardcore portions of his base. I hope he does veto it. We now have a republican candidate in Colorado who believes in Q-anon. This is crazy. Hope she gets defeated soundly. Putin won. He will be Russia’s leader for another 16 years. Astounding. DDT wishes he could pull of the same feat. The Supreme Court was quiet today, so nothing new to report. Let’s see how the July 4th holiday will shape up insofar as crowds getting together – will it be a little like Memorial Day? As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

30 June: MASA not MAGA: It is now clear that DDT was briefed in words but not comic book pictures. The problem is, DDT does not read unless forced to do so on a teleprompter. So, his denial about being informed has plausible deniability. Of course, the fact that he does not read intelligence documents given to him disqualifies him from being president. DDT (I’ve got bone spurs) apparently views US soldiers as disposable. He is the dumbest, least informed president in history, in addition to being a racist and rabble rouser. Going to court to dismantle the ACA in the midst of a pandemic, just because he doesn’t like Obama, is evil. This trying to dismantle Obamacare in the middle of a Pandemic is pure evil or utter ingnorance and indifference. The list keeps getting longer why he should be back to a private citizen and then possibly indicted and prosecuted for tax evasion and bank fraud. Today, DDT managed to obtain a stay on his relative publishing a book about the DDT family. Hopefully, a copy will leak to the New York Times if the stay holds. Once that happens, the cat will be out of the bag and the book will be a best seller. Fauci is now warning of an infection rate of 100,000 per day as the rate grows day-by-day. Of course, the other side of the equation is that more people will die. Right now the infection is growing fastest among young people who insist on socializing without masks should to shoulder. The Supreme Court has now chipped further at the separation between church and state allowing public funds to be used for church schools. I would not mind so much if that also resulted in a prohibition against discrimination. I guess idiocy is contagious. A Texas bar owner is organizing a concert named “Bar Lives Matter”. Oh well! Putin is running for a change to Russia’s constitution to allow him to be president for life potentially fulfilling DDT’s wish for the same. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

29 June: MASA not MAGA: It’s now 3.5 months (started 13 March) into a virtual lockdown even while certain young people just can’t wait to get infected. The Supreme Court just voted 5 to 4 to prevent the Louisiana law limiting (eliminating) abortions to go into effect. Roberts was the swing vote. Don’t get your hopes up about Roberts, he was for the law, but went with precedent not principle and sided with the 4 liberals. Have to get DDT out of office before RBG cannot make it any more and the Supreme court could be 6 to 3 republican. CV-19 is soaring again today with some states shutting down mostly, Texas and Florida, but it is too little too late. This is going to get much worse both globally and in the US. Meanwhile, DDT is still in denial. Speaking of denial, DDT still is denying that he was briefed on the Russian threat to US soldiers. He claims that the threat is not credible. Let’s see how this one plays out. A TACO chain has been exhausted by customers refusing to wear masks and because of the fights, has shut down. Right this to do, but hard on people who need to work. Great, Iran is going after DDT in the international court over the killing of their general. Perhaps we should go after the Ayatollahs for killing so many US soldiers with roadside bombs and for other atrocities they have committed. Facebook is being hit by the only thing that Suckerberg understands, the loss of money. It’s finally causing him to make reforms in order to stop the bleeding of Facebook. The best this for the advertisers is to never go back. The drug Remdesivir is going to cost $3000 per 5-day treatment of CV-19. It’s only mildly effective as a treatment but will sure make money. Just for fun, a new virus, similar to the flu virus, has been found in China. If we are not careful, we might have another Pandemic raging. But not to worry, DDT will deny this one also. Perhaps we shold expand the Supreme Court by two Justices and give Garland one of the seats.  Justice for a Justice. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

28 June: MASA not MAGA: On that DDT parallel with the rise of fascism in Germany, you have to watch the manipulation of German public opinion by a charismatic person dividing the country and blaming its troubles on a minority group. After that, the analogy breaks down. DDT might like to be a dictator, but he is a bumbling idiot with a populist schtick, that's all. Even so, watching https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/video/tv-show/fascism is an education in itself. DDT is now in fierce denial, denying he was briefed on the bounty payment for killing US troops (false) and denying he heard the White Power rant (also false) in the tweet that he retweeted. He was briefed about the bounty in March and probably was doing Putin a favor by ignoring it. It’s more of the same for DDT doing his very best to lose the election big time. Mississippi is now removing the Confederate symbol from its state flag. It’s only symbolic, but still progress. US states are racing to reimpose lockdowns as COVID-19 infections pass 2.5 million while DDT plays golf. Getting the ball in a hole shows real leadership. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

27 June: MASA not MAGA: The DDT dystopia has hit a new record with coronavirus cases soaring by 45,000 in one day with the total over 2.5 million, and those are just the cases that have been reported. Does DDT care? Not a bit if it interferes with his re-election, which it most certainly does. The republicans are fighting tooth and nail to prevent mail in voting even though this is needed if only to protect against COVID-19. This political party needs to be destroyed and replaced by a conservative party with the interests of the citizens first. New Polls show DDT dropping to his lowest levels yet against Biden. Keep up the current campaign strategy, DDT, you’ll lose, and the US will be a better place. Plus, then NY will be able to indict you on possible tax and banking fraud. Great, the latest stupidity shows the DDT campaign removing distancing stickers from the auditorium in Tulsa. That was clear from the pictures showing a half empty hall with 6000 people jammed into the front rows. From the Guardian, “Outrage has greeted media reports that American officials believe a Russian intelligence unit offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing foreign soldiers in Afghanistan, including targeting Americans.” The real outrage is that DDT has done absolutely nothing about this even though briefed by US intelligence in late March. DDT was cozying up to Putin and inviting him to the G7 meeting instead of condemning Russia’s ugly ploy. Fauci, once again the voice of reason in this administration, is urging young adults to act more responsibly and slow the spread of CV-19. Meanwhile DDT is playing golf in NJ with his fat gut showing while the country burns. Watched a video PBS TV on the rise of Nazi Germany in the late 1920’s and early 30’s. The resemblance to current events is unnerving. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump PINO = President in Name Only MASA = Make America Sane again h.a. = Horse's A-- TBO = Throw the Bum Out

26 June: MASA not MAGA: Let’s see which is the winner tonight? DDT signs order devaluing a college degree and opens up hiring to subjective judgements, or DDT ignores virus spike as cases surge to record levels and wants to reduce testing to make the numbers look better. Perhaps he can have wax replicas made of the people who die, then they can’t be counted. Texas, facing crises is starting to close down bars and restaurants. Too little too late, but better than nothing. Thirty out fo 50 states are being hit hard with no end in sight. Minneapolis has voted to disband their police department. Let’s see how this works. They are replacing it with the Department of Community Safety and Violence Prevention. One can only hope. The good news is that the DDT campaign has hit the skids with approval ratings dropping daily as have the number of anyone interested in voting for him. Pretty soon he will be down to the dog-whistle crowd. The most interesting thing today is that the Appeals Court found that DDT illegally diverted 2.5 billion for his fence from the military budget. Now this is an actual crime. It will be interesting to see how the Supreme Court handles this one. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

25 June: MASA not MAGA: Wall street executives are “bracing” for a Biden win because their greed with tax cuts and hand outs are likely to be curtailed. The fact that we would have honest government doesn’t seem to really matter. Contributions to Biden are also rising. DDT looks way behind. However, election is still 4 months away and lots can happen, both good and bad. Joe B is maintaining a low profile and refusing to get in the mud with DDT but has come out swinging in the past few days. Al least swinging with out telling lies. CV-19 is rising all over the country, especially in the south and west. Kind of scary to watch the hospitals fill. US sent 1.4 billion to dead people. I’m sure it helped. DDT is about to visit New Jersey and refuses to follow quarantine rules of NJ. Sad sick individual, what a loser. Texas governor finally opened his eyes and is closing down the state again due to the CV-19 surge. Meanwhile DDT is in denial. If CV-19 were not enough, we now have a monster Saharan dust storm about to hit the US. It’s fairly diluted now, so it should not cause much in the way of respiratory problems and may cause some colorful sunrises and sunsets. In case you have not noticed, companies and now banks are in some trouble from the CV-19 slowdown. The stock market seems to ignore the problems with the hope of another cash infusion while DDT fiddles (plays golf) and the US burns. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 June: MASA not MAGA: According to the latest polls DDT is sinking fast. Th Economist has a poll-based model showing DDT losing in a landslide. It’s still a long way to November, so you never really know. I think people are fed up with the BS coming out of DDT and want someone in there that can do something other than destroy the country. DDT is so unstable that it is impossible to know what he might do to avoid an election where he is slated to lose. The House is starting to investigate Barr’s Justice Department for political interference in the normal process with Roger Stone and with Flynn. There are calls for impeachment of Barr, but that would never get past the spineless Republican Senate. CV-19 is surging in the south and west, and it will not be long before it spreads again over a wider area. Texas, Georgia, Florida, South and North Carolina are being hit hard as is California and other sunbelt states. Texas has hit an all-time high. Look like Flynn is going to get off scot free for conspiring with the Russians and then lying about it. What a travesty. North Korea is threatening war with South Korea, but Kim has postponed it to see if he can win some concessions from DDT. Scary! DDT is slowly working on abandoning NATO by moving troops from Germany to the US and Poland. It will tough for Biden to undo all this crap. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

23 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT is thrashing around, even threatening to fire Kushner from the campaign over the lousy Tulsa rally. What will Ivanka think? Do I care? Fauci sounded reasonably intelligent today testifying in front of Congress. He does pull his punches a bit, but that is to be expected in his position. He basically said that the vaccine might take a while and we should be worrying about the current strong uptick in cases. Nothing we did not already know, but it is good to hear it from an expert. Oh Goodie! Something I can agree with even though DDT is stupid to say such a thing. “there will never be an Autonomous Zone in the capital as long as I'm your President. If they try, they will be met with serious force!”” An autonomous zone is almost as stupid as DDT being president. Big industry is slamming DDT’s immigration crackdown as there is a big shortage of technically trained people in the US thanks to lax schooling. Good news for the stock market. DDT says he supports a very generous new stimulus package big enough that no one will ever need to work (just kidding about the last part). Now DDT and family are trying to block the book by the President’s niece. Mary’s book might be even more devastating than Bolton’s. DDT has done such a good job on CV-19 that the EU is threatening to keep Americans out when external borders open. And the good news. A massive Saharan dust storm is drifting to the US. If enough of it gets here, it will cause respiratory problems. Just what we need, cough cough! Crazy small subgroup in the US are threatening health workers over wearing masks and social distancing. These are nut jobs that feel it is their right to impose on everyone else’s freedom in the name of “Don’t tell ME what to do”. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

22 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT is at it again. Another day another executive order, this time severely limiting guest workers for industry for the rest of 2020. The last part is good, since he will be on his way out by then and sanity will be just around the corner. Nice little bit announced yesterday by the DDT campaign and DDT himself. He’s going to grab the women’s vote not that his political plight is growing severe. It’s a natural for DDT to grab women, or at least it was four years ago. The real question is will women be suckers again? I personally do not get it, since everything that DDT does is anti-women, anti-immigrant, anti-racial, and anti-sense. Bolton’s book goes on sale Tuesday. With most of its damning contents already made public by advance copies released to news organizations, it would be surprising if there is still more hidden within. A south Korean official is disputing Bolton’s details of DDT’s talks with Kim, but refuses to specify which details. Sounds bogus to me, since his main worry was that the South Korean’s president Moon’s attempt at better relations has failed. DDT has now proposed meeting with Venezuela’s Maduro and again has backed off after objections to meeting with another dictator. DDT is not being depicted as increasingly frail and erratic in his thinking and physical abilities. It was pretty evident in his West Point visit, and evident in his Tulsa rally, where he could not stay on topic very long. He spent considerable time demonstrating that indeed he could drink a glass of water with one hand. Amazing, who else among us could do that? I am surprised that Biden has agreed to 3 debates with DDT without insisting on DDT’s tax returns be made public as a condition. These debates are akin to wrestling with a pig in the mud. All that happens is that you get dirty and the pig DDT likes the mud. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

21 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT is fuming, slowly stumblingly pacing back and forth preparing to fire his campaign manager Brad Parscale for letting him be so stupid as to pick Tulsa Oklahoma as the location for his first CV-19 incubator rally and then only have a few thousand people show up. The bare blue seats were an affront to DDT’s finer sensibilities. After all, he correctly said, if we don’t test people, we will have far fewer cases of CV-19. Brilliant medical deduction for a person that has never understood anything, even something simple that Finland is a country and not part of Russia. Of course, there he’s right again, Russia certainly tried to conquer Finland in the past and make it part of Russia, but failed. You can never tell what gem of knowledge DDT is going to come up with next that no one knew about before. Bolton continues to batter DDT in various TV interviews, most recently on ABC. Too bad he didn’t sneak a recorder into some of those meetings where he just took meticulous notes. Ah well, we can’t have everything. Firing the NY federal prosecutor, Geoffrey Berman, is looking worse and worse. Apparently Barr had recently praised Berman to the sky, but as a “I’ll do anything for you” lackey, got the job of firing Berman, only to turn on DDT and claim it was all DDT’s doing. Not so smart, Barr, for letting yourself get suckered into DDT’s stupidity. No one who has come into contact with DDT’s criminal amoral mind has come out clean. In a more just world without spineless Republicans in the Senate, Barr would be impeached and removed. Florida’s CV-19 cases keep climbing on the coattails of its brilliant open at any cost governor, adding almost 3500 new cases yesterday. Keep those beach crowds coming. Although I did hear him say he might have to shut the state down again and block all those northerners that keep visiting and bringing CV-19 with them. The Supreme Court is about to issue an abortion ruling that could destroy settled law and Roe v Wade unless Roberts again sides with the normal human justices that have some sympathy for women. If I read the reports correctly, gun violence, especially in Chicago is rising, 60 shootings 9 dead in one day, now North Carolina 9 shootings and 2 dead, and others, not to count the continuing police shootings. It’s got to stop. Guns are out of control. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump PINO = President in Name Only MASA = Make America Sane again h.a. = Horse's A-- TBO = Throw the Bum Out

20 June: MASA not MAGA: The Saturday night massacre has occurred (remember Nixon). Geoffrey Berman, US attorney in Manhattan, resigns after Barr announces his firing. Of course DDT maintains he had nothing to do with it, even though he is the only one with such authority. What a coward. DDT’s Tulsa rally was a bust with far fewer showing up than he planned. DDT cancelled a speech because there were not enough listeners. He claimed he was afraid of agitators. I believe him. Afraid is the right word for a coward. Right now it looks like DDT is in serious election trouble, especially on some of Bolton’s claims about DDT’s interaction with China trying to enhance his own election chances and talking about changing the constitution so he can serve more than two terms. Bolton’s book goes forward, the judge says, but leaves Bolton liable for being sued. Good luck on that. And the suit will be over the moment DDT loses and Barr is barred.That police-free zone in Seattle is descending into dangerous chaos, now with a double shooting, one dead and one wounded. Eventually, that group has got to disperse. The current stimulus package expires and the end of July with no indication that the Senate will take up measures to extend the help. Absent that help, things will really collapse. Talking with my son today while he was walking around a small popular town and he noted all the closed businesses. He tried to eat at a restaurant that served outdoors, but noted how uncomfortable he was and that it was not worth it. If his reaction is typical, things will get worse in a hurry. DDT’s famous negotiating power with North Korea is unraveling in the presence of Kim’s ambitious sister. Watch out Kim, you might be the next vctim. DDT’s protégé in Brazil is shepherding the largest spread of CV-19 in the Southern Hemisphere while remaining in total denial. It’s a mini-me in action.

19 June: MASA not MAGA: It’s hard to believe that DDT is going to expose masses of people to CV-19 just so he can hear applause at dog whistle lines. Apparently, the Oklahoma Supreme Court agrees with this really stupid plan. Meanwhile DDT is threatening protestors, agitators, or lowlifes with unspecified but brutal harm. Funny-weird impotent person. Sad announcement from the US Navy. They will not be reinstating the captain that tried to get help for his crew. The excuse was that he should have tired to get help sooner. CV-19 cases are hitting a daily high, but not in all areas. New York City is still improving, but most other areas are having problems. Expectations are for well over 200,000 peopl ein the US will die. DDT is wetting his pants about the John Bolton book. He’s trying to force Bolton to order his publisher not to release the book next Tuesday. Not likely to happen. The claims that are in that book essentially brands DDT as a stupid egocentric traitor. The India China problem is still an area that could explode between two nations with nuclear weapons. Not good. The middle east is heating up with Israel’s plan to annex part of the west bank that contains Jewish settlements and leave the Arabs with an unusable state. Whose plan is this? Kushner and DDT approved this idiocy. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

18 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT got kicked in the teeth by the Supreme Court (5 to 4) in preventing him from destroying the DACA program. Thank you John Roberts. The DACA people, especially those that are contributing a lot to the country, like the front-line nurses and other medical workers. These are people that have not known any other country that the US.DDT is desperately trying to stop the Bolton book, but too late, the cat is already out of the bag, and it is not pretty. Especially not pretty is the part about DDT talking to the China’s Xi about Xi’s helping DDT win the election. Ugly! Oh yes, and DDT’s HUGE knowledge base, “Is Finland a part of Russia?” “Does England have nuclear weapons?” And so on. The book shows him as the real dummy he has always been. DDT and his campaign are trying the Facebook ploy again. Huge amounts of money on stupid racist name calling ads. Not going to work this time. CV-19 is spiking all over the places that opened up early and have had the big crowds. Not NYC this tme. But wait until the protest infections hit in about a week. OMG DDT is taking credit for making “Juneteenth” famous, the holiday that celebrates the emancipation of slaves. Yeah right! As usual DDT can’t help himself. DDT has defended the police officer who shot dead Rayshard Brooks in Atlanta even though the police officer knew the stolen stun gun was not functional. Stupidity runs in the family according to emails from Ivanka T before she became part of DDT’s staff. A former White House ethics chief said. “Well now, this is disturbing. Ivanka Trump didn't become a government employee until March 29, 2017. This email is dated four weeks earlier than that. Why is she appearing to conduct government business in this email she sent while still a private citizen?” There is more, but enough for tonight. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

17 June: MASA not MAGA: Just reading an article claiming the Atlanta police have walked out over the charging of the police officer on felony murder of Rayshard Brooks. Not too good. Have to wait and see how this plays out. DDT is wetting his pants over the John Bolton book even though the NY Times reviewer says it is a pretty poor book and mostly does not make its point. Facebook is trying to register people to vote. Are they trying to just do something good, or is there an agenda? That’s the trouble, Suckerberg, no one trusts you. There are 2 whistleblowers about to testify against Barr for Barr’s doing DDT’s dirty work and politicizing the AJ’s office. Biden’s lead over DDT has grown to 13% as he accuses DDT of raising the white flag of surrender and befuddlement to resurging CV-19. Fires are starting in the west again. It’s dryer and hotter than ever, so this cold be a disastrous season. And then there is the festering North Korea situation where a mistake could explode. Good negotiating DDT. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

16 June: MASA not MAGA: Skipped a day yesterday. It gets hard to write about DDT every day. He’s so predictable and boring. However, today i smore interesting DDT is after John Bolton over the book that is about to be published detailing DDT mis management of foreign policy and his corrupt dealings. DDT is threatening to sue Bolton for disclosing classified information on the basis that everything, he, DDT said. Bill Low-Barr is also threatening to go after Bolton. Bolton did make a the appropriate effort to exclude any possible classified information. Of course, if DDT loses the election, then not problem. Both DDT and Barr will be gone. Good one. DDT on CV-19. DDT said, “If we stop testing, we would have very few cases, if any.” DDT certainly earns his first D. The Fed chairman Powell has tried to burst the stock bubble with little success. He announced that the Fed would not be aggressive in buying corporate bonds and today the stock market surges higher. When this bubble bursts, it will be a mess, hurting a lot of small investors. DDT just signed an executive order concerning police behavior. It is an empty order, more in the form of suggestions rather than implementation. But it did give a good photo op, which is all DDT was after. Vice President Mike Pence has encouraged governors to give a misleading explanation for the rise in coronavirus cases in some states. Pence, the minime? DDT has been pushing the idea that if we stop testing and close our eyes, the new CV-19 cases will disappear. I’m hoping the same will work for DDT. Just vote in November and he will disappear by January 21. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

15 June: MASA not MAGA: Need I say more. DDT is boring. More tomorrow

14 June: MASA not MAGA: America has gone insane following the lead of our despicable leader, DDT. Two hangings in California, what the hell is going on there? Another fatal shooting in Atlanta with a lot of doubt as to the officer’s story with a stolen Taser. YAY, DDT learned some history about the end date of slavery in the US and about the Tulsa massacre. He moved his out of control rally. Minneapolis police officers (14) are quitting over lack of public support and official support. They, not necessarily those particular officers, earned it. This is a major problem that is going to come up, namely who is going to deal with real criminal violence if the police just resign, social workers, right! CV-19 cases continue to rise with 20,000 new cases daily just this week. Deaths are sure to follow. CDC says the US has had over 2 million reported cases so far. Hopefully, those that read this are not crazy enough to start public socializing again right now. Please wait until the new case load goes almost to zero. Go Kudlow. Kudlow says that people should perhaps wear masks at DDT’s rally if they so choose. Simple health advice. Don’t go to the rally. It will be good for you and good for the USA. Whoa! It looks like there is a book coming out by a Trump family member detailing the contest over DDT’s father’s family will and all the shenanigans of DDT. It contains a lot of dirt including information about the family finances just before the elections. Sink DDT sink, in the polls and then out of sight and mind. Wall street is set to drop tomorrow, but who knows hoe the whole day will go. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump PINO = President in Name Only MASA = Make America Sane again h.a. = Horse's A-- TBO = Throw the Bum Out

13 June: MASA not MAGA: Not too much happened today except examples of excessive police force against black people. The lesson is just not being learned. A black male was shot in the back while running away after a struggle with police in Atlanta. Stupid. And , a black man was found hanging frm a tree in Palmdale, California. The Seattle CHAZ is still in operation with the leader refusing to allow police inside the zone. Of course, this standoff cannot last forever. The police would be wise to just let it die on its own. While DDT was at West Point yelling, “We will vanquish this virus” he was having physical trouble lifting a glass of water. Probably nothing. Sen. Susan Collins said that she would work to change the DDT Administration's new rule on LGBT patients' protections in Obama Care. Good Susan, too little too late and I don’t believe you anyway. Too many times you have faked us out with your pious baloney. Now this is potentially serious. From the Hill, “North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s powerful sister threatened military action against South Korea over declining diplomatic relations with Seoul and what she said was its inability to stop leaflets from defectors from pouring over the border.” She may be more unstable than her brother. The last thing we need is a real war after out master negotiator, DDT , settled things peacefully with Kim. Good luck with this, DDT. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

12 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT strikes again and rejects health care protections for transgender people. Part of it is because it’s an Obama program and part because DDT doesn’t give a damn as long as it plays to his base base. DDT’s description of Lincoln in a Fox News interview is typical of an ignoramus. Yeah, He did good, although it’s always questionable, That goes along with another quote from today, “The concept of chokehold sounds so innocent, so perfect.” Gotta love the man arranging his own political funeral. Cuomo signs a major police reform bill for NY State with the approval of Al Sharpton. The details will be interesting. We are now in the 2nd wave of the coronavirus thanks to the Memorial Day Holiday with wave three in the near future from the mass protests. Next we will have DDT’s mass rallies to contend with as a source of infection. DDT insiders say his campaign is falling apart because DDT cannot accept reality. What a surprise, DDT not accepting reality. One of the questions that has been brought up is whether Bill Barr will face criminal proceedings for the Lafayette Square fiasco? Who knows. DDT could always pardon him after he loses the election. The biggest unanswered question is who is going to run with Biden for Vice President? We won’t know until shortly before the democratic convention in August. Our incredible negotiator, DDT has failed again with North Korea giving him the diplomatic finger and Kim has little reason for maintaining ties with him. Way to go, DDT. On another front, 54 scientists have resigned or been fired as a result of an investigation by NIH into the failure of grantees to disclose financial ties to foreign governments. In over 90% of the cases, the hidden funding came from a Chinese institution. I sure hope this is not another case of guilt by ethnicity.

11 June: MASA not MAGA: DDT has cine out against any kind of major reform of police or police tactics, and against removing civil war names from army bases, and against rules that keep air and water clean, and against people being able to vote safely, and against CNN polling that predicts him losing, and against Joe Biden. Only the last is OK. He may approach it badly as he does almost everything, but it really does look like he is making his own case for oblivion. Biden gave an interview today where he expressed “fear” that DDT might cancel the election or refuse to accept the result is he loses. Biden suggested that the army might escort DDT out of the White House if DDT refuses to leave. That would be fun to watch. We will find out how many strong men it takes to lift and carry 240 pounds of squirming slime to the sidewalk and shut the door. General Mark Miley showed class today by apologizing for his mistake in accompanying DDT to the church. He recognized that accompanying DDT was essentially a political statement that the military should never get involved with. As far as I am concerned, that is class. So different from Bunker Boy who is unapologetic about anything. The markets were down big time today, over 6%, with a slight recovery forecast for tomorrow. It’s all BS right now, since it is mainly computer trading against each other, with human investors suffering. Projected now is 200,000 death toll by the end of the year thanks to certain governors and to the leaderless DDT. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

10 June: MASA not MAGA: Republicans have completely lost their way. They are spending time avoiding the main issue if inequality and discrimination against minorities. There are a bunch army bases wit Confederate names and DDT says he will not even consider renaming them. Good old DDT thinks that his thinning rabid base will save him. Not so. Watch him try to delegitimize the November election. Don’t be surprised, a cornered rat will turn vicious and do desperate things. I cannot believe what happened in Georgia primary elections with broken machines, untrained voting officials, and not enough polling places open. You would think that this was the first election they ever held. Sheer incompetence. DDT is going to try to kill as many people as he can starting with a giant rally in Oklahoma on 19 June. A few less republican DDT devotees won’t be missed even though I don’t want anyone to die or get sick. The good thing is that DDT’s poll numbers are sinking along with the Republican Senators. Hundreds of former US officials, especially from the Justice Department, are urging a review of Barr’s actions during the protests. Read an article on Barr’s life while in high school and after. Apparently, he was much the bully along with his 3 brothers. His whole life has been a pugnacious mess, and nothing has changed. It explains a lot. Bad relations are heating up between DDT and Iran and N. Korea. Hopefully, nothing will come of it. Vaccine clinical trials are set begin in July. Let’s hope, since the number of COVID cases are increasing from Memorial Day and will increase again from all the crowds in the protests. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

9 June: MASA not MAGA: Took the day off. It get's harder and harder to write about the mess that is out PINO.

8 June: MASA not MAGA: Demonstrations across the country continue as a shape of change starts to form. Lots of calls to “defund” the police as a means to cause reform. Somehow there is the idea that the criminal element will give way to community programs. I don’t think so. Community programs can solve some very basic problems, but not with major crime, robbery, murder, fraud, assault, drug dealers, and so on. Reform is needed for the way police interact with people. Legislation from congress for rules of police behavior out of the reach of unions and politicians is a necessary start. Right now such legislation is being proposed in the House, but will go nowhere in the Senate or with our PINO, DDT. He just gave a little talk today erratically emphasizing how great the police are in dealing with everyone and no “defunding” will occur while he is President. That is probably true on the national level, but only until he is out of office, which is not long from now. From what I can see, the country is turning against DDT, both for his lack of handling the CV-19 pandemic and his head-in-the-sand view of the protests and protestors. Biden has come out against the literal defunding of the police but wants strong reforms. When he is president and the Senate is Democratic, the reforms will happen on a national level as is sorely needed to guide the local level. There is the potential for real change. Get rid of DDT and start. Stocks continue their incredible rally with levels back to their highs in March in spite of CV-19 and the huge unemployment numbers. The good news is that New Zealand claims to have eradicated CV-19 even though it is winter there. That means there is hope for us and everyone else. The National Football League Commissioner has apologized profusely for the leagues mistakes in not allowing peaceful protests (taking a knee), but the league has done nothing so far for Colin Kaepernick who was ousted for protesting police violence against blacks. It’s crazy that such a simple move is being withheld even though it would create tremendous good will. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

7 June: MASA not MAGA: Today was interesting. The marches were quiet but intense with a lot of religious organizations participating, especially evangelicals. Mitt Romney attended and also thoroughly denounced DDT along with Colin Powell, who clearly called DDT incompetent and a perpetual liar. As of today the polls are showing shifting in Biden’s favor. I hoped this continues into November for a landslide victory of 10 to 20 points with the loss of the Senate along with DDT being a real loser. It would be nice also to get rid of Moscow Mitch. There is a movement to defund police, which to me is misguided unless anarchy is your goal. Reducing funding to be able to find other programs, OK. I can see that happening. One must never forget that there is a criminal element out there that would just love ineffectual police. Tom Cotton’s awful op-ed column in the New York Times has led to the director of the editorial page to be fired. A call to armed soldiers had no place in the NYT, especially during the peaceful protests against the violence against people of color. After Muriel Bowser essentially kicked the guard out of DC, with the cooperation of the Pentagon, DDT Is not trying to take credit for removing the guard while saying, “that everything is under perfect control”. Credit for perfect control should go to the marchers and to Muriel Bowser, not the CIC (Clown in Chief). Oh good. The genius Ben Carson (HUD), whose qualification for his job was that he lived in a house, said the systematic racism is “very uncommon now”. This happened on a TV interview about DDT’s tweet attacks on George Floyd. It turns out that Biden in an interview was only partly right. It should have been, “if you are human you cannot vote for DDT”. It should be two weeks before we know if the protests lead to more CV-19. I hope not. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump PINO = President in Name Only MASA = Make America Sane again h.a. = Horse's A-- TBO = Throw the Bum Out

6 June: MASA not MAGA: Ten thousand peaceful protesters today in a small are near the White House made quite a crowd. I hope this means real change, it is so needed in America. There are some that would disagree with me, but I think that change is impossible with DDT in the White House. It’s not what he actively does, but he encourages and permits racism along with the criminal actors DDT has installed at many places in the government. The Guardian had it right. Protests about police brutality have been met with more police brutality. It’s an institution that needs an overhaul in the worst way, top to bottom including the police unions. The system is corrupt, which is a shame, because there are plenty of fine officers as police that are being made dirty by a minority. DDT has asked for 10,000 active-duty troops to be deployed in DC near the White House. General Bone Spurs will be out front leading the charge. Donald Trump knows that Facebook’s Zuckerberg can help him win in November, and Zuckerberg has too much to lose by censoring him. It’s the case of another person with no regard for truth other than his bottom line. DDT signed an executive order cancelling the legal shield from liability that Facebook currently enjoys. Immediately, Suckerberg shows up on FOX claiming that Facebook should not be the arbiter of truth or falsehood in what people say. Sad situation when a company like Facebook could decide the election with its microtargeting. DDT lying in the face of reality claimed the the US has 2 million vaccine does ready to go. Such BS. Without consulting allies, DDT announced a pull out of 9500 troops in Germany so that he can deploy them in the US. Right! The plan stunned Germany and rocked the basic world order as a favor to Putin. Sad day when we elected a criminal clown. I can forgive one time, but not a second time.

5 June: MASA not MAGA, especially not DDT’s MAGA: Today the stock market and job numbers were up. That’s a good thing for the person looking to get out of the economic swamp. What I do not want is for people to give DDT credit for botching the presidency as is so obvious to anyone. DDT takes credit for the sun rising once per day, and it is the same with the economy. Tomorrow, the protests are expected to be larger than ever, with millions marching. It should get DDT’s knickers in a knot. President bone-spurs was calling out the army to act tough in his behalf against peaceful protesters so that he ould have a fake phot-op in front of a church. A bully relying on backup from people that are really brave. There is some change. Cuomo applauded the suspension of the police who knocked down, without reason, a 75-year old man in Buffalo, NY. That’s Cuomo. Disappointing though, was the entire emergency response team resigning in support of the out of control police officers. The best thing is to accept the resignations. DDT invoked George Floyd’s name while touting US jobs figures, “George Floyd would be proud….”. Wake up DDT, George F was murdered. DDT said, "Hopefully George is looking down and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country. A great day for him. It's a great day for everybody." Good for John Kelly, formerly DDT’s chief of staff, "we need to look harder at who we elect." And, of course, DDT topped it all off with a lie. The lie that he fired Mattis when the truth is that Mattis surprised DDT with his resignation about pulling troops from the Middle East. But then, what is one more lie among thousands? As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

4 June: MASA not DDT: Two Republican Senators are finally getting fed up, Murkowski (Alaska) and Romney (Utah). If they and 4 more are really fed up, stand up and walk to the other side of the aisle and switch parties. The cure would be instantaneous, and DDT would be history insofar as him doing more damage. Too bold? Then just vote against him. Talk is cheap, votes are bullets. Gotta walk the walk, if you’re goin to talk the talk. Even so, it’s good to see some cracks growing in that unholy alliance of cowardly Republican Senators. Perhaps, DDT could front the bail (1 million each) for the Minneapolis knee-on-your-neck cops. It will only cost you a measly $300K and will endear you forever to the baser part of your base. A no-brainer, which should fit you perfectly, DDT. Barr is all defensive about his decision to clear obviously peaceful demonstrators using horses, flash bang grenades and tear gas for a phony photo op of DDT holding a bible upside down in front of a Church. Upside downside, makes no difference, DDT does not read. Barr denies it was tear gas, right, just clouds of some mystery substance that made you not able to see or breath. Oh Good God, another idiot, Rand Paul holding up a bill that would ban lynching. He should be for the bill just on the basis of self-defense. Good news…by largely refusing to wrestle with a pig in the mud, Biden’s lead over the flailing DDT is growing. Even FOX sort-of-news complained about how does DDT unite anyone by attacking Mattis. Get your CV-19 surfboards out. A second wave is coming, and it could be bigger than the first. Buy toilet paper, now! LA just cut the police budget by 150 million. Will is stick? Those Humvees cost big money; you know. Hmmm, DDT has cancelled his golf trip to New jersey out of fear of protests. Back to the bunker, Bunker Boy. Today is Tiananmen Square Day to commemorate the killing of thousands in front of a smiling Chairman Mao (picture, of course). Foreign hackers are targeting both DDT and Biden campaigns (China and Iran?). Where is Russia when we need her. As long as DDT goes down to defeat, hopefully by an honest overwhelming loss, I’ll be happy. Me biased? Whatever would make you say that?

3 June: MASA not MAGA: Three more by-standing do nothing police got charged as accomplices in George Floy’s death along with Mr Knee on your throat having his charges raised to 2nd degree murder. Justice? Not yet. The courts and the police unions have yet to have their say. Far too many violent police have gotten off free because of the court’s reluctance to convict and because of the union rules that gets the bad egg rehired. I'm pretty angry that DDT and Barr called out the military to clear the streets with tear gas, horses, flash-bang grenades, and humvees for a fake photo op. The abuse has got to stop. Thank you Defense Secretary Esper for coming out against DDT’s really stupid idea of invoking the Insurrection Act. That’s all we would need is the army combating civilians. Mark Suckerberg (sp.) is still denying that DDT’s racist statements are not “dog whistle” statements. That man is stubborn in the face of necessity. Obama spoke out about racism in America, calling for justice for all and calm in the presence of police brutality. Calling for reform and inclusion, not divisiveness as from DDT. Even the nice, but not so bright, George Bush came out for unity and understanding, and very much against police brutality. But, the we have DDT’s blonde mouthpiece, McEnany, spouting nonsense in defense of DDT and refusing to say if there is systemic bias in policing. Interesting. The Louisville police released a video that purports to show David McAtee fired a gun before being shot by police. In the meantime, the public is protesting his death. Bunker PINY DDT went to the bunker “just to inspect” it. Right! The stock market is surging against all logic. Without another mega injection of money, the economy will tank as rents go unpaid. Republicans and DDT are counting on magic to save the economy. Spin 3 times, throw in a lie or two. and stamp your feet. That’s unreal leadership.Works every time. Slogan for the demonstrators to the police, TAKE A KNEE, JUST NOT ON MY NECK. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

2 June: MASA not MAGA: The protests are truly massive. Perhaps America has had enough of the discrimination against black people and others with darker skins or different accents. One certainly hopes this is a wake-up call that actually accomplishes change. Of course, DDT is in there acting divisive as he always does. As he said himself, he likes to cause rage and always has liked making people angry. Good sign, the congressman known for emitting racist speech has lost in the Republican primary in Iowa. Of course, I know nothing about the person who won, Feenstra. Now for the general election with one bozo gone already. George Bush gave a talk that emphasized unity and compassion. A far cry from DDT. Bush was not the smartest person but was not evil. He really cared. He said, “It’s time to listen”. Bush called for peace rooted in justice. “Protests are a strength of America. Those who set out to silence those voices do not understand the meaning of America,” said the president, “or how it becomes a better place.” Of course DDT had to intrude and pat himself on the back. Facebook’s Zuckerberg shot his mouth off stepping in a pile of doo. Civil rights leaders said Zuckerberg gave “incomprehensible explanations” for not taking action against President Trump’s “looting ... shooting” post, and Facebook employees are rebelling. DDT’s phony church stunt for a photo op holding a bible he never reads still rankles. The UK is changing immigration laws for Hong Kong citizens if China changes their basic law. Good for BoJo. Not only did SpaceX have a successful launch, it recovered the rocket on dry land. I’m impressed. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

1 June 2020: MASA not MAGA: Watching the looting and burning is so against the message the protestors ae trying to send. During the day, the protests are angry but peaceful, as they should be. A different group seems to emerge during the darkness and messes up the message. The chief lawbreaker PINO gave a speech today trying to position himself as the “law and order” president. Unfortunately, he called for a “Release the Kraken” moment by calling for activating the army. Once armed and out there, anything could happen. One certainly hopes not. We could do without another Kent State incident. DDT the PINO is a man I’ve come to intensely dislike, both for his crooked life before being president and now. Reading about DDT is reading a laundry list of outrages. As an aftermath of these protests without social distancing, we should expect a surge of CV-19 cases and resultant deaths. I’m not looking forward to this outcome. The good news is that the SpaceX docking was successful. Now we have to wait for the return flight. There is other stuff going on, such as McConnel trying to get an incompetent appointed to the DC Court of Appeals and other sneaky bad moves. It just does not seem worth writing about at the present. As for DDT, throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

DDT = Dumb Donald Trump          PINO = President in Name Only

MASA = Make America Sane again    h.a.  = Horse's A--   TBO = Throw the Bum Out

31 May: MASA not MAGA: The protests are going on continuously with a small fraction burning and looting, and with some police overreacting. People seem to be forgetting about the pandemic with huge shoulder to shoulder crowds. Now that it is getting dark, the vandalism is starting with a different group of people. DDT is safe, rushed to an underground bunker in the White House. Of course, that didn’t stop DDT from tweeting about using the national guard. There is no question that change needs to happen with the police and with bigoted people of all stripes. DDT has taken to retweeting Q’Anon screeches about violence coming. Typical of DDT, causing division and encourages violence. Good news: SpaceX has successfully delivered two astronauts to the space station. The first time in a long time for the US. Tonight’s blog is going to be short. A poll came out showing DDT ahead in states he won in 2016 even though Biden is ahead in the popular vote (as was Clinton). Let’s hope we do not get another 4 years of DDT, a country destroying president. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

30 May MASA not MAGA: Well we did it. Launched from Canaveral using SpaceX technology and safely got two astronauts into orbit with docking today at the space station. Unfortunately, the glory and excitement are overshadowed by the police actions causing the death of innocent people and our totally dense president threatening military action against US citizens. Of course, DDT will deny saying what everyone heard him say (the looting and shooting remark). Joe Biden came out as a sane leader, in contrast to the idiot, talking about restoring calm and achieving justice for the blatant murders, while DDT remained silent. The Supreme Court came down in favor of California being able to regulate the size if religious worship services, especially as the restriction was more favorable (not less) than on other businesses. A dissenting opinion by Kavanaugh made no sense whatsoever. He basically said that restrictions on all businesses and churches had to be the same. He said, “a state may not impose restrictions on churches that it doesn’t impose on any business.” As some wit declaimed on Twitter, “does Justice Kavanaugh really think 100+ people hang out in marijuana dispensaries for a few hours together and sing?” Also, not having draconian restrictions on grocery stores prevent people from starvng. Robert Reich said, “Fire, pestilence and a country at war with itself: the Trump presidency is over.” As soon as the nation is freed from the two pestilences destroying the country, CV-19 and DDT, we can start to rebuild and become a sane country again. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

29 May: MASA not MAGA: Guess what. It’s not all DDT tonight. There are things happening that are not just DDT. He’s there alright, but not everything. Twitter is blocking some of DDT’s outrageous tweets, especially the one about looters and shooters. Sick man. Hong Kong is spinning out of control and DDT is planning a retaliation for China’s actions. Some action is needed, but I do not trust DDT to handle it well. Interesting, DDT floated through his first 3 years on the strength of Obama’s actions and foolish tax cuts. Now the end, he’s suddenly confronted with crises. The killing of George Floyd by that psycho policeman has the whole country ties in a knot. The treatment of black people is outrageous, both by police and some sick civilians. The woman in New Yorks’ Central Park calling the police on a peaceful bird watcher is an example of purposeful abuse, trying to take advantage of using the police to cause trouble. It didn’t work, fortunately, because he filmed the encounter and was extremely polite throughout. DDT is back pushing the useless drug for CV-19, which he claims to have taken for a week, in spite of the danger. Stupidity is consistent, if nothing else. China and India are at it again on their disputed border. The posturing is OK as long as it does not get out of hand. We desperately need a thoughtful leader. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

28 May: MASA not MAGA: America was great 3 years ago. Now it is a shambles. Still can be saved and remade to a sane great nation again, but not with DDT as leader, nor with the poer hungry McConnel in the Senate. Both have to go with DDT out and McConnel at least reduce to impotence in the minority. DDT is threatening Twitter and Facebook because Twitter dared to fact check his lies about mail in ballots. Apparently, Twitter use the same fqact check link that they use fort China’s official state lies. How embarrassing. Of course, it DDT were to remove the lack of liability from Twitter, his Tweet account would disappear. It’s kind of funny, the CV-19 started in China, but the infection actually got here from Europe, not China. I hate it that DDT is going to make decisions about Hong Kong’s take over by China. Hopefully, he will stumble into the right or workable decision without causing even more damage than he has over the past 3 years. There was an amazing contrast with Biden’s response to the 100,000-death mark on DDT’s watch. A combination of genuine sorrow and the likelihood that he knows how to get the Federal government mobilized to prevent further disaster. The Russians are at it again hacking email servers over a bug in the operating system. It’s time we did something back to slow them down or at least make it expensive. Who has come out firmly against the DDT CV-19 pill he faked taking (hydroxychloroquine) as a preventive and then stopped after 1 week. Apparently, CV-19 is airborne according to some recent research. That makes is all the more frightening. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

26 May: MASA not MAGA: Twitter is fact checking DDT on election issues, but not on other lies. Fort example, Twitter is still allowing the utterly false murder conspiracy claim. How anyone can vote for such a liar is beyond my understanding. DDT is trying to make North Carolina allow a mass meeting just for meaningless adulation of his great gut. I hope the governor hold firm and does not allow the people of NC to be put at risk by a flock of sick Republicans. Go ahead, DDT, move the convention somewhere else. Florida! Sounds good. DDT is not warning China he will take some unspecified action over the Hong Kong crises. Go Biden – he has now called DDT an absolute fool over mocking wearing a face mask. The CDC is warning about rats becoming aggressive over declining food. They should also warn about the rats in the White House limiting the supply of food for humans. The US is claiming that Russia has sent stealth fighters to Libya because the proxy war lord has been losing later. Stock exchanges are open and Beaches are packed, the world is crazy. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

25 May: and still ticking: MASA not MAGA: As I read more and more, I can really see how DDT and his henchman and enablers are destroying this governments ability to serve the people instead of just friends and cronies. The firing of IG’s and the pervasive corruption along with the attempt to aggregate dictatorial powers makes the potential for Russia type state are entirely possible. Between the AG Barr , who believes in a supreme President, and the packed Supreme Court, there could be major trouble ahead. Hopefully, the November election will stop this in its tracks. I am starting to sound like a Cassandra, with everything doom and gloom. The economic situation with high unemployment, huge debts, falling tax receipts, and no obvious easy way out. The economic situation here and in Europe is dire. The economies of Italy, Spain, and Greece are in trouble and could collapse except for funding from the Central Bank. There will probably not be a second round of help as Germany’s government is opposed. What happens next, who knows. With a significant fraction of the US population acting like there is no danger this Memorial Day (flocking in crowds to beaches and parks), there may be another flare up of CV-19. That will cause further problems. With DDT at the helm, all bets for success are off. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 May: MASA not MAGA: BoJo (Boris Johnson) is backing the minister that too an extended road trip in the face of a national lockdown. Remind you of anyone? Hint: Similar hairdo. DDT (sensibly) has banned travel from Brazil because of the huge increase in CV-19 cases. Once in a while even DDT makes sense. Not good. After a decrease for a while, NY hospitalizations have increased as has the death toll according to the governor. A judge in Florida has ruled that the state cannot block former felons from voting solely based on unpaid bills. Of course, the state will appeal with the republicans trying to suppress as many votes as possible. The fools in Florida and other places are flocking to the beaches for Memorial Day in an experiment to see how many new people can die from CV-19. It will make a good data point at very high cost. Hopefully, these are mostly Republicans. Just another good way to suppress the vote. Israel is going after Netanyahu in court for corruption. He’s blasted the court in a manner similar to his US backer, DDT. Good. Biden has released a Nero Rome is burning campaign ad. Only in this case, the CV-19 death toll is rising and DDT is playing golf. Same indifference, same ego, and probably the same results. Let’s get rid of the criminal in the White House. BAN-DDT. Remember TrumpGate (see yesterday) and drain DDT's swamp. Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

DDT = Dumb Donals Trump PINO = President in Name Only MASA = Make America Sane again

23 May: MASA not MAGA: It is time to consider the very real “TrumpGate”, a series of scandals that has plagued the US all coming from DDT. Everything from impeding investigations, stealing money the Congress appropriated, enriching himself at the taxpayers expense, the constant lying to the people and to Congress, the appointment of political crony incompetents, the firing of Inspectors General out of pique, the refusal to allow the House to do its oversight job, the absolutely scandalous handling of the CV-19 pandemic crises with his willingness to have additional people die, especially older people, to possibly enhance his reelection chances, his incestuous relationships with Russia, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea, and his constant ineffectual economic war with China. Of course there is more that could be in that list of TrumpGate crimes against the US, but it’s a good start. DDT is back with his Sleepy Joe nonsense after Biden got after him on the talk show where he made his “you ain’t black” gaffe. Compared to the things that DDT and his mouthpieces say all the time, Biden’s attempt to be funny (for which he apologized) is nothing. DDT is back to golfing while America burns. That man spends more time either watching TV or on vacation then doing his job as PINO. Time, way past time, for a change. Go Joe! Throw the Bum DDT, the PINO (President in Name Only), Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

22 May: MASA no MAGA: Joe, Joe…I know you were on an edgy show, but think before you speak. Fortunately, when things were more calm you apologized. It doesn’t make it perfect, but it does help. At one of the news outlets (The Daiky Beast) said, “Biden apologized for a bad joke today, DDT is a bad man every day”. Cute, but so what? DDT is now mediating religion ordering all churches, temples and mosques to open for worship or…else. The else is not clear…or he’ll tweet? Frightening. Fauci also agrees that keeping the country closed too long is dangerous, but opening it stupidly is even more dangerous. He, of course, put it more politely. The moderator of Biden’s program Charlamagne, Tha God, defended Biden for his “off color” remark. Now the House wants to know, why oh why, did you (DDT) withdraw from the Open Skies defense treaty? What little gods drove you to such craziness? Tell us oh obese one. Unemployment is up, DDT is down, Herz is filing for bankruptcy, and Jane Roe was a paid turncoat. So wash your hands of CV-19 and DDT and then vote in November. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

21 May: MASA not MAGA: Ever the fool, DDT goes without a mask while visiting the Ford plant in Michigan. That should please the nut jobs that form the lowest part of his base. At least one of the really vocal ones, not in Michigan, got really sick and has now started trying to tell his former nut jobs that this is really serious business. See, there is something positive about CV-19. It creates believers. China is moving to take over Hong Kong, the people be damned. That move should put a crimp in China’s banking system that has relied on a relatively free Hong Kong for trust and reliability. YAY…Fauci beats DDT on the CV-19 front by 27 points. Only 27 points? Beating DDT on thinking is a low bar indeed. Once again DDT strikes a blow for war,. This time with Russia by withdrawing from the open skies agreement that allowed mutual surveillance of each other’s military facilities. What is his gut doing? The next President will have a hard time putting all the pieces back together again. But at least Humpty will be a broken mess at the bottom of his wall. As ever, DDT never surprises. He now says looking back, he would have done nothing different than he did. In this case he’s right. He did nothing and is still doing nothing, it’s his MO. Do nothing to fix things and do everything to break things. Things are heating up. Biden has asked Klobuchar to be vetted for a possible VP slot. Nothing really wrong with her, but she certainly does nothing for me in the way of excitement. Getting DDT out of office will excite me. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

20 May: Masa not MAGA: Pelosi spoke the truth today. “DDT is like a kid with doggy doo on his shoes”. Pretty soon everyone around him also has doggy doo. Pretty stinky situation. The only thing missing is DDT lying on his back kicking his heels on the ground. Well, for all I know, that is exactly what he does in private when watching FOX No-News. DDT is back trying to manipulate the upcoming election by denying federal aid to the states that are sending out applications (not the ballots themselves) for absentee ballots in the face of CV-19. You have to remember, that is the way DDT voted in Florida himself. Republicans are crying wolf (voter fraud), when all they are really doing is trying to limit voting. In the world today, CV-19 cases jumped upwards the most ever for a single day. In the US, CV-19 seems to have stabilized in most areas. Not gone away by any means, but just not increasing, and in NYC decreasing. The really good news is that there seems to be immunity for those who have recovered. How long the immunity lasts, no one knows. But, even if temporary, it means that a vaccine can be developed that gives temporary immunity over and over. A big step forward to having a normal life. The US vs China thing is heating up again over Pompous Pomeao’s lauding of Taiwan. How this plays out is anyone’s guess. With DDT as President, if I were in Taiwan, I would be nervous at relying on US support. Oh well, the Supreme Court backed DDT and keeps Mueller’s Grand Jury material from the House (for now). June 1st is the hearing date. Scary, getting close to November. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

19 May: MASA not MAGA: Before DDT, we were great and sane. Successfully recovering from a banking mortgage crisis in a systematic sensible fashion. Then came the crazy person who’s only goal was to stay in the headlines and destroy everything that came before him. We need him as President as much as we need a hole in our collective heads. DDT is systematically trying to destroy our democracy just to satisfy a sick ego. It’s sad. He needs help, professional help, not advice from FOX and his seriously overweight gut. It’s comical and sad. DDT thinks that shouting Obamagate over and over it will turn into a magic scandal. There’s nothing there, just like the birther baloney. Only this time I do not think it will work. He’s gone to the mud-pool too many times. It’s getting old and threadbare. Florida has aped DDT in getting rid of an employee responsible for informing Floridians about CV-19 for telling the truth and refusing to fake the numbers. Look out for a stimulus debt card with DDT’s name on it. Spend it before he takes it back. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

18 May: MASA not MAGA: With a friend like DDT, who needs enemies. His best “friend” and endless supporter, FOX News, disagreed with the medical advice DDT was putting out using his gut. Did start a discussion as between normal people? No, it started a tirade against the person questioning his touting and consuming that useless and dangerous purported CV-19 drug, hydroxychloroquine. It’s too bad DDT is not suffering the side effects and freeing the rest of us from rampant stupidity and egoism. On that front, DDT is now really threatening to withdraw from WHO. By the time he is done, the US will be totally isolated, a world class pariah. Whoa! Barr has shown some independence and is saying that the DOJ will not investigate Biden or Obama over the fake unknown DDT charges of “Obamagate”. The crowds are flocking to the beaches and parks in spite of the obvious dangers. This is a case of people playing the odds of themselves getting sick in a herd of others. Only 5 to 10 percent will get sick and the 90 to 95 percent will have to wait for another day. I hope I am wrong. A company, Moderna, has announced a vaccine candidate that shows promise in stimulating antibodies against CV-19. Will it work preventing the disease? We’ll know in about a year. The firing of the State Department IG is looking stranger and stranger. It appears that DDT is throwing Pompeo under the bus claiming that Pompeo asked him to fire the AG who was investigating Pompeo for use of government workers for personal benefit and for the Saudi arms deal that bypassed congress. See what a friend DDT can be. Texas has now reported the highest single day jump in new infections, but will continue to push its reopening. How many will die because of DDT pushing reopening for the sake of his reelection chances. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

17 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT is accusing Obama of being incompetent. So strange coming form someone who does no at all know what he is doing other than stroking his own ego. DDT has made a total mess of the US, and it is going to get worse. Biden will have to clean house. It’s good that Obama is out there irritating the fragile DDT. The more the better. Perhaps his head will explode. A few Republican are starting to speak out about the threat to democracy cased by DDT’s dismissal of IG’s. I wish they would also see deeper in public, not just in private, what a menace DDT is in many areas. The man is crazy and toxic. Pelosi is pushing for more relief for the hungry and jobless. Barr is now performing as DDT’s personal lawyer by protecting his friends and going after DDT’s opponents. Barr needs to resign at AG of the United States and go into private practice working for DDT directly. The three of them make a dangerous trio, DDT, Barr, and McConnell. The takeover of the VOA is stil pending, but the name calling by the big tweet of the current VOA staff is growing more intense. November is D-day for DDT. Down with DDT day. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

DDT = Dumb Donals Trump   PINO = President in Name Only  MASA = Make America Sane again

16 May: Masa not MAGA: The ego maniac DDT has claimed that the truck drivers honking and interrupting his press gathering at the White house were congratulating him, when in reality the were protesting the changes in shipping rates. It’s like the HUUUUGE crowds at his inauguration (biggest ever in the history of the United States). On top of that, DDT is trying to take over the Voice of America and turn it into a mouthpiece for his vast achievements and leadership on the world stage. In reality DDT is reviled and openly mocked worldwide. Even leaders of dictatorships, who have adopted some of DDT’s worst wishes, think he is a blooming idiot. Both China and Russia are hoping he is reelected so thay do not have to deal with someone able to see clearly beyond the end of their gut. Another day another IG fired. This time in the State Department at the recommendation from Pompeo. At least one Republican in the Senate has recognized DDT’s behavior as a threat to democracy and said so publicly, Mitt Romney along with President Obama at a commencement address. Obama went after DDT for the utter screw up in his administration without once mentioning his name. If only the press would do the same. You notice that his name is never mentioned here either. Great. A foreign fraud ring has stolen millions of dollars from US unemployment funds. That’s what I like about this administration, great management and great new ideas (on how to screw the little person). Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

15 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT is now moving at WARP speed. At some moment he will pop back into the real universe and realize that he is going no faster than science permits to develop and safe and effective vaccine. It could take a year or more, and even that is super fast, but less than faster than light speed.  In the meantime, the only real warp speed is in the flow of BS and invective. DDT has been going after everyone in the Obama administration in an attempt to tar Biden and anyone associated with Biden for performing the ordinary task of revealing that Michael Flynn was the target of an FBI investigation. There is a little-known fact that DDT has revealed many more people under investigation than did Obama. It’s all legal and proper. Of course, it is not necessary for DDT to have reality on his side to make a fake scandal. The distraction mirrors tactics about DDT’s birther farce that he tried to perpetrate on Obama. To prevent another fake job, Biden has got to refuse a debate with DDT in the absence of released tax returns. To be fair and balanced, Biden just muffed a fairly simple set of facts, her reversed the number of unemployed with the number of deaths, 85,000 deaths and millions of Americans have died. One hopes that he is not actually confused, but just another one of his verbal blunders that is easily fixed unlike the lying snake of a president DDT who makes up lies and “facts” regularly. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

14 May: MASA not MAGA: The whistleblower testifying to the Senate said that the government refused to stock up or manufacture supplies (N95 masks) when they were available and are planning poorly now. Dr. Rick Bright testifying that it is likely to be a disaster this autumn when CV-19 spikes up again. Thanks to a Republican Supreme State Court decision in Wisconsin, people there are out partying in bars and restaurants. Let’s see how this plays out. Useless fact: taxpayers have now paid DDT over 1 million dollars in rentals for his properties. Republican Senator Richard Burr is being accused of insider trading and has stepped down from his chairmanship. Hey, just a little crookedness, what’s the big deal when compare to the big DDT. It’s crazy with armed protesters descending on the Michigan State Capital. FOX news is going on about a conspiracy theory having to do with Obama. It’s not even clear what the conspiracy is, but it now has a name, a stupid name, but no meat. Oh good. DDT is threatening to cut off the whole relationship with China. That will go over well here in the US when industry runs out of supplies. It will only take a decade to manufacture everything here. DDT is insane. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

13 May: MASA not MAGA: Dr. DDT has deemed the real Dr. Fauci’s warning about not reopening the country too soon as “UNACCEPTABLE”. Well, I guess the genius in the stable has completed his medical degree and 40 years of experience in just 1 day. That has to be the fastest any human became an expert in anything. I’m impressed and so should you. Let’s all raise a glass of bleach in honor of DDT’s singular achievement. Michael Flynn’s case has taken an interesting turn with the appointment of a retired judge to examine the DOJ’s actions and if Flynn should be held in contempt of court. Of course, DDT is playing “look at the shiny object” game trying to distract everyone. Now accusing Obama of crimes (everyone knows what those are, he says). OMG the man is insane. Let’s hope the country can survive the insanity egotistical behavior, and incompetence for another 9 months. Negative interest rates. Lovely, especially if you happen to be a retired person. The latest: DDT is not willing to make any vaccine that gets developed universally available. Only people who vote for him (this is false). Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

12 May: MASA not MAGA = MAHAHAHAHAHA: Finally, Fauci unchained in front of the Senate committee is starkly at odds with the DDT administration. Fauci is warning of a second and third wave of infections and deaths. No bother to DDT, as he said, you American warriors should just step up, and sure some of you will die, but not me, the PINO. Of course Fauci also said that these 2nd and 3rd waves will have a major impact on the economy. That scares the bejabbers out of DDT, if it happens before November. Today the Supreme Court considered the case about DDT’s personal records and tax returns in a New York case looking into bank and tax fraud, as well as a case where House investigating committees want to look at the tax records for much the same purpose. Interesting to see what they decide. It will have a major impact on DDT and future presidents. The House passed another 3 trillion dollar stimulus package, some of which is supposed to go to the states to make up for increased costs and reduced tax revenues. DDT says no way. At least he says that now. New record set today. It’s the biggest in the world. Be proud DDT, you are single handedly saving the social security system with just over 80,000 dead so far. What next? 100,000 for sure, do I hear 200,00? Going once, Going twice….DDT hand is raised. Mostly Democrats, so who really cares. Oh, and another record today, over 20 million unemployed with large numbers getting no help. Old WMW (What Me Worry) DDT is worried as the polls turn against him. The answer, just get out there and die for me, old DDT, it’s your patriotic duty. Give me four more and I will push this country to the floor. You will see me without chains, free free at last to cause real pains. You know it’s my thing. I just want to be your king. When I’m done running this dump, we’ll rename ii the United States of Trump. It’s my mission and will only charge a small commission. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

11 May: MASA not MAGA: The White House staff now has to wear masks, but not ugly. DDT who is too conceited to wear a mask even as a favor to the rest of us. DDT apparently had a temper fit and walked, no stalked, out of a press conference. He’s losing it inside his head and in the polls. Right now it looks like the Republicans could lose the senate too. Good, if it happens. Some things that are good may come for CV-19. The supreme court is hearing arguments on DDT’s tax return case brought by New York State. This one is really important as it goes to the idea that the President is immune from all inquiry while he or she is in office even if it pertains to crimes before becoming president. It’s an amazing claim of absolute power, something the founders of our nation specifically wanted to avoid. Will the Supreme court have the guts to go against DDT. Not sure, give the current composition of the court. The case has dire implications for all three branches of government. The tendency of the court is to avoid politics, but this one is so critical, it would be cowardly to avoid the case or to find in DDT’s favor. That said, it has to be a very narrow decision to avoid a tidal wave of such cases in the future anytime there is divided government. What we really need to do is get the dumb crook out of the White House and into a comfy jail cell. Vote against DDT in November. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

10 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT is now slightly afraid, spooked, with CV-19 so close to his germophobic self. Poor guy. He needs to come down with COVID-19 to get a little humility of the suffering of others. Pence is self-isolating. Good. Let’s make it permanent in November. Now it’s 20 million people out of work with a lot of suffering and anxiety as bills pile up for working people with little of no savings. Of course, DDT and the Republicans could expand food stamps and make life a bit easier for people. The bigger problem is the collapse of the housing market, both apartments and houses. People are losing their homes in a situation much worse than during the banking crises a decade ago. Hard to believe it but stock futures are rising in the face of a collapsing economy. Supposedly, the stock market is the collective predictor of the future of the economy. I hope so. In NYC, new cases are dropping. A bit of good news. That “invasion” of Venezuela is tuning out to be a farce. A scam perpetrated by a truly incompetent former green beret medical officer. Weird. This time at least, DDT was not involved. Almost as good as DDT was Elon Musk’s rant about the restrictions from California on his Tesla assembly plant. The rant sounded like it could have come from a deeply disturbed person even though he certainly has creativity. Reading today reports about the DDT administration’s bungling of the CV-19 pandemic were appalling. So much refusal to deal with the problem when it was relatively small, and so much incompetence after it grew, compounded by Jared K getting himself involved in another area he knows nothing about. When Biden blows DDT out of the office it will be a chance to clean house. Just make sure you get out and vote, and hopefully vote for sanity. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

9 May: MASA not MAGA or is it MAHAHAHAHA? DDT has made the calculation that American lives are worth it if it helps with his reelection How many, Well, whatever it takes is his answer. Kill some, and there’s plenty to take their place. Plus, if they are dead, they are no longer unemployed. It’s a win on both counts. DDT the PINO doesn’t give a damn about you or me, it’s all about him. And, he’s right. If he loses the presidency this November, he is in a boatload of trouble on the legal and personal front. Barr will be gone, as will all the bozos currently messing up the US, and the argument about a president not being liable for criminal behavior will evaporate, POOF. CV-19 is in the Whitehouse. Some of the more intelligent people are self-quarantining themselves (e.g., Fauci) while others (e.g., DDT, Tushner, and Pence) just give us the finger. I cannot wait for November to see this whole crew get thrown out.South Korea reopened after a very successful testing and tracing campaign. Now it’s closing back down again after an outbreak. Go Georgia! Finally, Obama is weighing in and going after the DDT administration for its response to CV-19. There is a lot more, Obama, get off your couch and let DDT have it with both rhetorical barrels. Tara Reade is showing her true colors as a partisan Trojan horse. At this point there is no way to really know what happened, but it is 100% clear that she is in the business of attempting to influence the election. She has now left the Democratic party and is going for notoriety. Next stop, FOX news? Worldwide the CV-19 cases top 4 million. In the US the death toll is around 2000 per day. Great management, DDT. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

8 May: MASA not MAGA: More people are coming down with CV-19 in the White House. Perhaps if it spreads PINO (President in Name Only) will start to wear masks. This will have two salutary effects. The first will be to protect DDT from CV-19 and the second will be to shield the rest of from the stupid looking mug. That mug is so smug, I hope it catches CV-19 and has a learning experience. Barr is turning the Justice Department into a joke. Hopefully, after the election he will fade into the woodwork he crawled out from. Oh good, the CDC has created guidelines for reopening the economy, but DDT is refusing to let them be released. He’d rather kill people to get the economy moving faster for his re-election. If DDT manages to get re-elected for a second term, he will be totally without restraint. If you want America to be destroyed, he’s your man. I hope you DDT supporters will like the dismantling of the Post Office, DDT’s latest gambit by installing a Post Master General that wants to end the Post Office. It’s no different than anything else he’s done, just appoint incompetent yes-men. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

7 May: MASA not MAGA: Politics all over the country. State legislators are now fighting with governors as to who can distribute the funds allocated to states. Forget helping people in need, raw politics are taking preference. It’s disgusting. The really big news on the pandemic is the worldwide developments, especially in Africa and Russia. Putin is hiding and shifting responsibility to local officials who are terrorized to act. Remind you a bit of DDT. DDT is using the same ploy, encouraging the governors to risk lives and dumping responsibility while claiming unprecedented success. Whenever there is a disagreement with wishful thinking, DDT the PINO simply fires the person and replaces them with yes-men or women (see new press secretary). AG Barr has now gone completely political with the refusal to continue the case against Flynn. DDT gave glowing reviews of the Barr decision and scathing remarks about the FBI, the press, and the investigation. The House is still trying to get the Grand Jury proceedings from the Mueller investigation and DDT is resisting releasing the information. More of the same interference with House oversight of the administration. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

6 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT misspelled ABC (thought it was softball FOX) and did an interview with David Muir who actually can think. It was a massacre, even though Muir took it easy on the dumb cluck who was flailing and stuttering unable to answer basic questions. He tried an t attack on Obama for not stocking the Federal emergency reserve of medical supplies. Muir asked wht he didn’t fix this during the past 3 years. DDT’s answer was that he was so bust with other things, like watching TV. Good one, DDT says the Washington DC will never be a state because to many Democrats live there. Nice! Probably should get rid of Georgia, too many Republicans, or Kentucky, one too many McConnells. The Supreme Court was all over itself today reviewing DDT’s refusal to allow woman who work for religious or commercial organizations that have objections get free birth control medical care. Betsy (you know the one) DeVos has revamped the sexual assault rules to allow confrontation. I must admit, that the proof of assault should not be just she said it happened, but we do not want to go back to intimidating the accuser. But, Betsy in this case, just like most everything else she does is not aimed at helping people who have needs, from campus assault to student loans, she is a disaster. I guess things cold be worse here. In Russia, 3 coronavirus doctors mysteriously fell out of windows when each individually complained about conditions. Of course, it could be just chance that all 3 accidentally fell out of window and died (one is still alive in serious condition. OK enough for tonight. Stay safe from DDT and CV-19. Both will give you a headache and both could get you killed, especially if you are not rich. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

5 May: MASA not MAGA: Way to do DDT, as he says more people will die from CV-19, but it will be worth it by everybody shopping and make things seem good for him to have a better chance at winning reelection. What does he care, it is you dying, no risk for DDT. Ah, poor DDT, he says he cannot sleep nights thinking about the coronavirus victims. Sure I believe that along with the tooth fairy. Back to name calling again, the last resort of someone not smart enough to have a real opinion. He went after Seth Meyers, part of his perceived evil media. What more could we expect from a fake president PINO (President in Name Only). DDT the PINO. The experiment is being run to see how many people CV-19 can kill by relaxing social distancing all over the country. From a research point of view, it’s exciting science that would be unethical if it were done on purpose. It’s called a disease challenge experiment that is usually not allowed on humans. Others would call it natural selection. Missouri now is seeing a record number of CV-19 cases as the state reopens. Newsom, the governor of California is furious at the stubborn idiocy, but powerless to stop it. Oh, that’s a rich one. DDT has expressed a wish that women reporters at the White house were more like 50’s housewives. That should endear him to women voters. Being a woman in the 50’s was not a good deal at all. While China certainly could use a little investigation into its handling of the CV-19 crises back in January, it is getting blown out of proportion into something akin to the “cold war” that existed with the Soviet Union. Not good at all. The really big news is about the supply chains failing for basics of life, especially food. If anything will lead to civil unrest, food shortages certainly will. It may be too late, but if the Republicans would get off their high horse and reinstate the food stamp program, the demand would rise and deliveries to grocery stores would pick up restoring the supply chain. The really bad news is that it appears there is a mutation in the SARS CoV-2 virus that is more contagious and deadly than the original strain. Throw the Bum DDT the PINO Out.

4 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT is doing his usual blame and distract game. On top of the B&D game he is threatening to raise tariffs. Raise tariffs in the face of 30 million unemployed to make it worse. Right now we are facing a rising death rate in the US and DDT is pushing policies that just make things worse. The only good thing is he will pay for the idiocy in November. We now have evolving hunger in the US on a massive scale with no coherent program to stem its grip. A simple expansion of the food stamp program would solve most of the problem without the complexity of getting food to the food banks competing inefficiently with grocery stores. Why aren’t we doing this? Pure Republican ideology against the food stamp program. What can I say. The Republicans have lost their way, veering from fiscal conservatism into a self-serving monster favoring its pet big industries and wealthy donors. We’ve got t get rid of the current excuse for Republicans and reformulate the party as a responsible partner in the political dance. As bad as the Republicans have been, we do not want unchecked Democrats either being taken over by left wing ideologues. Responsible government is the watchword. For the present, we need the liberals to correct the Republican disaster and undo DDT. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia.

3 May: MASA not MAGA: DDT increasingly appears to be losing it, slowly going nuts. He had his usual weekend tweetstorm blasting Bush for trying to bring about unity in the face of CV-19. Bush was basically saying that we are all the same fighting this virus. Bush always was decent person, and more so once he sidelined Cheney and some other right-wing hawks. Part of todays idiocy was DDT trying to go biblical talking about a plague “and the world was never the same”. Dramatic but stupid. Other than a shooting incident (no one hurt) with N. Korea, thigs were pretty quiet this Sunday. The death toll continues to rise rapidly and now Oregon has a significant outbreak. The economy is tanking especially for the middle and lower classes financially. The food and housing crises are atrocious. It would not take much ingenuity to partially fix this problem, but it would take leadership. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

2 May: MASA not MAGA: There is a little yellow dyed bird-brain tweeting from rustic Camp David about Biden, Flynn, and the Russia hoax. Bottom line, who cares. Stop paying attention to the buffoon. DDT is being pressured to really go after China. Emotionally, I could not agree more. China’s behavior on the international scene and internally is deplorable. It’s a growing mercantilist dictatorship with plans to impoverish the world, enrich itself, and make the communist party dominate everyone. China has become seriously dangerous. However, direct confrontation is going to go nowhere as simple cooperation. The world must reduce its dependency on China even if it is cheaper, and trade must be balanced between the west and China, by law if necessary. Of course, that means doing a significant amount of manufacturing here and in Europe. If only we had leadership. Perhaps in November, the US can change an ass for a horse. Enough for tonight. The CV-19 death toll is still rising, new cases are falling in some places, and Georgia is running a potentially deadly experiment for the rest of us. YAY Georgia. Tara Reade’s story is stating to look like Swiss Cheese, with lots of holes. Even she admits there is no Senate record of a complaint. I can’t dismiss her story out of hand, but there is no evidence either way. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court

1 May 2020: MASA not MAGA: Get rid of the insane person calling himself president. At least Kim Jong Un seems to be alive and visiting a fertilizer plant. Some things remain constant. Like DDT blocking Fauci from testifying to Congress. Nothing much happened today except for Joe B decisively denying the sexual assault charges. No ifs and or buts, it was direct denial that nothing of the sort happened. He did this without belittling his accuser. Stocks tumbled today, up and down like waves in the ocean as the weeks go by. The weeks are becoming indistinguishable one from another. Just sort of losing track of time. If it weren’t for online meetings, I would not even know the day of the week. The country is slowly reopening, but there is no indication that the economy will improve with general fears of CV-19. DDT is at it again, calling the armed protesters in Michigan, “very good people”. Perhaps. At least they did not shoot anyone, so I guess that’s good. One more week and we will know the impact of Georgia defying sanity. So far so good. The new case trend is down. All in all a quiet week now that we are passed the go and drink bleach. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

30 April: MASA not MAGA. We eed sanity. DDT is now blaming Obama for broken failed tests for CV-19, claiming that he, Obama, left him with broken failed tests. Strange sort of time travel. There was no CV-19 disease in 2016, so there were no tests. This is a DDT disease starting in China and enhanced by the stubborn idiocy of DDT denying that the disease even existed during its early months. This is definitely DDT’s virus. It was his to stop or minimize, and he failed. In other words, DDT is a loser. Everybody hates him, nobody likes him, he should go and drink bleach. A little sanity has prevailed. A Michigan court has found that the governor’s stay at home order did not infringe on constitutional rights. After the huge collection of dumbos on California’s beaches this past weekend, the governor has decided to close the beaches to protect public health. Tomorrow will be interesting. Joe B. has agreed to address the sexual assault allegation on TV tomorrow morning (Morning Joe). I’ll hold my breath and hope Joe B doesn’t blow it on M Joe. The Russians are having a really bad time with CV-19. It’s especially bad after Putin’s bragging about Russia avoiding the disease. Just a heads up. So far the tests of Remdesivir have been statistically insignificant in helping recovery from the disease. Forget the hype, the data says it all. More testing will be done, of course, but don’t get your hopes up. There is a potential vaccine on the horizon coming from Oxford England based on an existing vaccine developed of another corona virus disease. Let’s hope. Meanwhile, on the home front, DDT is planning a political trip to rabble rouse in front of a medical supply company’s employees. Hold your breath and hold your nose for the BS about to emanate from Arizona. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

29 April: MASA not MAGA: Before DDT America was great. Before we can become Great again, we must become Sane again. Step 1: Get rid of the insane person in the White House in November. Step 2. Get rid of the tyrant in the Senate, McConnell in November. There are other lesser idiots we could do without, but those two are a good start. DDT is now tying COVID aid for the states to immigration practices such as in the so-called sanctuary cities. We still have a testing problem as he pushes the states to reopen by encouraging his right-wing people to protest the only competent leaders we have, most state Governors. We now have the Tara Reade accusation of sexual assault, which so far Biden has vehemently denied through his campaign staff. Time for you to publicly deny it, Joe. You are between a rock and a hard place. If it never happened, how do you prove it? This business of “I told my mother and girlfriends” makes it harder for you. Hopefully, you did not do it, and could even pass a lie detector test. Of course, DDT is not immune from such behavior, there is a deep cesspool of such events in his life, which does not seem to matter to his supporters, religious or not. Now, thanks to DDT and the Justice Department, we are getting lawsuits about social distancing. Perhaps sane people should sue the people suing for endangering public safety. DDT is now saying that we have so many ventilators that we can begin to give away or sell the surplus. Right! Perhaps we can also sell the tests that DDT says we have so many. Got to get rid of the two bozos, DDT on general principles and McConnell for his sneaky conniving ways (bringing the Senate back into session so he can approve more judges before he gets kicked out along with DDT). Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

28 April: MASA not MAGA: It pains me to think that Pence is a dumb as DDT, but evidence is in that Pence is willfully stupid. Today Pence was touring the Mayo clinic and was advised to wear a mask, but refused. Who was that unmasked man misleading by example? It’s our DDT clone and professional smiler (da veep). Governor Newsom is politically brave, condemning the people who crowded California’s beaches the past couple of days for risking their lives and a lot of other innocent people. Stupid (aka DDT) is now trying to disown responsibility for disinfectant confusion caused by his gut speaking during a press conference (burp). YAY, we have passed the 1 million mark of CV-19 cases. Pretty sad. There are more and more people who think that DDT is mentally unravelling, even some of his erstwhile supporters. Let’s hope this carries over into November. Dr. Fauci is predicting a really bad Autumn if the treatments for CV-19 do not appear in time while the states are reopening too soon. The prediction from models is that the death toll will be over 74,000 us rom over 50,000 today. We’ve mo leadership from the top, just naked ego and pathetic nonsense. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

27 April: MASA not MAGA: DDT cannot imagine why calls about taking disinfectants spiked. I’m sure that’s the truth. He does not imagine much. He was back again today at his so called press conference. Nothing much as usual except for the claim that most of the administration’s work is done. Declare victory and move onto something else more important, like packing the courts with unqualified judges. California beaches are packed. It’s OK. There’s probably little difference between laid back and laid out. Tennessee cases have jumped. Time to open up. Is he or isn’t he? Alive that is. Oh, talking about Kim Jong Un. Probably does not matter. Perhaps his sister will take over. Then DDT can deal with her. The Bernie is outraged. Outraged that NY has cancelled their primary for public health reasons and the fact that only Joe B. remains. Bernie is still in there trying to be the disrupter he always has been by accumulating delegates to force changes to the Democratic platform to help DDT. Of course that is njot the real reason. It’s his last hurrah, and he wants one more bite at the apple. Throw the Bum DDT Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

26 April: MASA not MAGA: We really need to Make America Sane Again. It’s time the cazy person stops running the show. DDT is in trouble and he knows it. He drank the bleach, and election-wise he’s dying. Now, is when he becomes extra dangerous, lashing out at friend and opposition alike, trying to distract and confuse y to the point where you won’t believe anything you see or hear. He doesn’t care whether you believe him or not, he only cares that you don’t have a clue as what is real or not. The Maryland Governor has it right, DDT, shut your mouth and quit saying the first thing that pops into your head (from your gut, burp). DDT is skipping the briefings now, saying it’s not worth the effort. What effort? The reopening is happening whether it is sensible or not. America is starting to run a large-scale experiment, which will be of keen interest to epidemiologists and statisticians, an experiment that no sane person would ask to be run. The result will likely be more deaths, but the value to science, immense. Will auto makers make automobiles, perhaps some, but not much. Will jobs return to the wat they were before? No. I cannot predict the future, only to say it will be different. Are you willing to get on a packed airplane? I cannot speak for you, but you are not getting me in a packed space just to go to a business meeting or vacation. Cruise anyone? Go for it. Restaurant? Scary! The only mass exercise I am willing to indulge in risk is for voting this November to make this country sane again and stop the lies. There are little specks of good news, GM and Ford are turning out ventilators. Others are using 3D printing to make medical devices in new and inexpensive ways, and scientists are working their butts off trying to find medications that might work. The latest promising drug is a common one in antacid medicine like Pepcid, but injected in high doses of the drug, not Pepcid itself. Join me and vote the crazy lying bum out in November. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

25 April: MASA not MAGA: Even DDT seems cowed and ashamed by his drink bleach and shove a lightbulb where the sun does not shine performance. The next DDT briefing, he read from notes, took no questions, and, turning tail, stalked off the podium. His vocal staff tried to claim he was being sarcastic, but the video clearly gives the lie to that. It’s right up there with the huge crowds and sunshine during his inauguration. If he were a real leader, he would demonstrate the usage of his proposed cures. Looks like the country is reopening regardless of risk. I hope that the reopening works without killing too many people. The bleach bit should be the beginning of the end for DDT and his drive for a second term. The only thing that worries me is the drumbeat to investigate Biden for sexually molesting a campaign worker many years ago that is strongly denied by Biden. That the investigation should happen is beyond doubt, but also the urge to ascribe guilt with out some form of proof should be curbed. Hard to believe that worldwide the CV has claimed over 200,000 lives with over 50,000 in the US. What is equally scary is that some survivors have serious permanent damage to vital organs and blood clots leading to strokes. The mismanagement by DDT of the pandemic in the US is a moral crime. It should disqualify him from being president and certainly being president again. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 April: MASA not MAGA: An old prairie dog has popped his head above the dirt. The infamous knee-jerk Miller has resurfaced in public view to try to make immigration restrictions, put in place by DDT, permanent. Even Republicans are getting worried about the restrictions and their effect on industry. Miller has been arguing that certain immigrants compete with Americans for high paying jobs, when the truth is that there is a shortage of well-trained technical people in the US. Have there been abuses, yes. These should be dealt with case by case, not by a blanket prohibition. It is amazing that DDT was able to find the rock under which Miller was hiding in a rock garden with so many deplorable people. Kim Jong-Un of North Korea fame is still nowhere to be seen. Headlines show that even China is concerned and is dispatching doctors to North Korea to see what is going on. A ghoulish experiment is unfolding in Georgia to see how many will die as a result of trying to reopen an economy battered by the coronavirus. It’s a hard one to decide. How many lives is it worth to add a million dollars to the state’s economy? I’m glad that Georgia is willing to sacrifice itself so that the rest of us will know the answer. On another front, namely DDT’s prescription for coronavirus cures based on ingesting disinfectants, it would show real leadership if he would volunteer to test the methods on himself. There is a history of brave medical leaders doing just that. C’mon DDT show us you’ve got the guts (not just a gut). Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

23 April: MASA not MAGA: Just when I think that DDT cannot get any stupider or crazy, he proves me wrong. I always misjudge the level DDT’s ignorance. Today DDT was touting the effective ness of exposing people to bright light to kill the virus in 1 minute or to ingest disinfectant. The bright light gambit will not work, especially since the virus is inside your body and cannot be exposed to bright lights. The disinfectant idea is doubly ignorant. If ingested, disinfectants will kill you, but not bother the virus at all inside of your cells. This country must get rid of DDT as soon as possible. The level of incompetence and ignorance is monumental. If we survive the man, historians will have fun with the clown. To a reporter who questioned the ludicrous ideas, DDT lashed out with “I’m the President and your Fake News. Brilliant comeback. After backing the far right wing demonstrations to “free the people in the states”, DDT is now bashing Georgia’s governor for doing the very thing that the anti-government movement is demanding. Of course, the people behind the antigovernment movement are too afraid to be in the crowds (Mercer family and the gun rights people), but risking other people’s lives, that’s OK. But the big thing is DDT does not want to get tagged with the looming Georgia disaster. He’s now performed the CYA maneuver while applauding the right wing groups that will probably vote for him no matter what he does. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

22 April: MASA not MAGA: If this were 1 April, I might understand the Fool McConnell suggesting that the states use bankruptcy laws to get rid of their debt. In the first place, states are not allowed to use bankruptcy laws and in the second place that would be the end of municipal and state bonds to forward fund things that cannot be afforded in the current tax base. But then, Fool McConnell is just imitating DDT, badly, to be sure, but nonetheless playing the fool. DDT and his administration have ousted a top vaccine doctor because he said that the two useless CV treatment drugs touted by DDT were useless. Not only were they useless but caused additional deaths in a trial at VA hospitals. It’s not over, not over by half. California is now reporting the highest one day rise in cases. The fools are everywhere. Las Vegas mayor say that she knows everyone is sick, but she wants to open the casinos anyway and let chance take its toll. Go Honey and play the slots for me. Perhaps you will get lucky, or I will and there will be one less fool. The CDC director said he believes the news reports of quotes concerning a second wave of CV-19 is likely were accurate (he used the word devastating), but DDT is trying to force him to denounce them as “fake news”. Uh Oh! Maryland governor Hogan is going to announce a plan for easing restrictions. Let’s hope it makes sense. Let’s hope the promise of Remdesivir is realized and we stand a chance at getting back to work. Of course DDT will take credit. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

21 April: MASA not MAGA: DDT has done it again(and again). He’s curt of immigration in the false guise of protecting us against CV-19, but then he allows tourists on temporary visas. The difference? Tourists spend money much more than immigrants, and DDT is desperate to get the economy going and throw a “Hail Mary” to win the election. Crass, but predictable. President DDT’s administration is preparing a wide-ranging rollback of business rules and regulations in an attempt to mitigate the shock of the worst economic collapse in a generation, according to a Washington Post report. Trying to roll back labor policy, environmental rules, workplace safety, His goal: to leave this country astoundingly worse than he found it. And, I have to admit DDT is succeeding. A big uncertainty is what is happening in North Korea with Kim if he truly is in critical condition. Will his sister succeed him or will it be internal war for the “kingship”. Georgia is now playing Russian roulette with 5 bullets in a six shooter. Each bullet coated with CV-19 disease. Personally, I hope he succeeds, but the price for failure is very high. And of course there’s Texas with the L. Governor saying “There are more important things than staying alive”. Perhaps he can apply that to himself and resign. The CDC director is warning of a second wave in winter of CV-19 that could be worse than the first wave. Hopefully by 21 January we have a president that can lead not lie. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

20 April: MASA not MAGA: The world is totally bonkers. Oil Is now selling for negative dollars per barrel in the US, about $40 negative. Why? Well, there is no more storage for oil and if you were to buy some oil you would have to build or pay for storage upon almost immediate delivery. So much supply and so little demand. Three countries are in serious trouble because of the price war and now the glut, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Venezuela. All three rely on oil revenues to make their economy work. The other thing that is happening thanks to CV-19 is the onset of hunger caused by food shortages and lack of work, especially in developing countries and to a small extent in the US. If you can, donate to food banks. DDT is still doing the two-step dance: 2 forward, 2 back, 2 to the left, and 2 to the right while blaming everyone for the fact that he is not getting anywhere. What a jerk when we need a thoughtful leader. The state of Georgia, encouraged by Dr Death (DDT), is going to play the natural selection game by opening movie theaters next week. Good luck, suckers. Just read a stupid essay by Donald Collins at American University filled with hate and disparagement of the US. Even with DDT at the helm, he’s over the top, but DDT does give some credence to his argument. WHO is saying that the worst is yet to come. I believe WHO. Throw the Bum Out.

19 April: MASA not MAGA: Dr Death (aka DDT) is pushing for creating unprotected crowds of people going back to work, sports events, concerts, shopping, and so on. So, the DD in DDT is now both Dumb Donald and Dr Death. The T remains as before, unmentionable in this writing. I was looking at the engineered protests in Michigan against social distancing and wearing masks, thinking, Go For IT, natural selection working at its best. The world has always had its share of Yahoos, and these are no different. Pictures of Florida beaches crowded cheek to jowl just brings home the point about Yahoos and natural selection. The problem is that these Yahoos will infect more sensible people. What really galls me is Dr Death encouraging the right-wing fringe people to get out and agitate for their “freedom” to kill innocent people. The irony is that people who agree with social distancing and wearing face masks cannot counter protest in large groups. DDT is now saying that states are responsible for testing when they do not have the resources or supplies to do so. Typical DDT, when faced with his own abject failure, turn and dump responsibility on others. Now attempting to tie Biden to China when he, DDT, was pushing for selling medical supplies to China in January and February as the need was growing in the US. Donyang Donald couldn’t care less about the US, it’s all about him and money. Reading the newspapers, it is clear that DDT is rolling back the protections for oil blowouts in the Gulf of Mexico. With the rollback, it is not a question of whether but a simple question of when (the next major disaster will strike). Hopefully, the next administration in January 2021 will roll back the rollbacks. It is also clear the US members of WHO were informing the administration and DDT of the impending pandemic back in January and February. As usual, DDT and BS are synonymous. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

18 April: MASA not MAGA: All kinds of rumors are floating around. Chief among them is could DDT stop or delay the election. The answer is yes to one and no to the other. He can delay it even though it would cause an uproar, but he cannot extend his term. The constitution specifically specifies a presidential term as 4 years and out, unless reelected. After that, it gets very complicated as to who would be temporary president on 21 January 2021. The other big thing that is happening is that DDT is arousing people to protest the CV-19 lockdowns that are present in most states. It's his usual technique to cause chaos and then do what he wants in the shadow of the uproar. Florida has just opened its beaches to large crowds 3 days after CV-19 spiked. Expect another CV-19 spike. Other states are considering a more gradual but too fast opening. The big problem is that Federal money is not flowing to those that need it, and people are getting antsy, at least those with TEA party leanings. DDT administration is exploring whether the CV-19 virus might have been released accidentally from a Chinese biolab in Wuhan. Probably not, but who knows. Out intelligence sources say no, but that has never stopped DDT from the latest conspiracy theory. Good news is that deaths are down, but still very high, and the rate of hospital admissions has leveled off at a very high, but more manageable level. Restarting the economy requires test kits at the rate of 500,000 to 1 million per day. We are far from that. More like 150,000 per day. Basically, we are about to witness the largest failure of the DDT administration so far, and that’s a big big order. The other thing that has become apparent is that a large number of recovered people require kidney dialysis machines and also suffer liver damage. We have go to get competent leadership in as President. DDT is a failure. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

17 April: MASA not MAGA: Now DDT the putt putt is a liberation fighter. LIBERATE the states, he demands. Let people die, who cares as long as the money flows (to me). The man is insane, literally insane. The example of Wuhan China should be a warning. They are having a second wave. Some of the states, mostly Republican states are easing restrictions. Let’s see how long it lasts. Florida has reopened its beaches. Of course, DDT being DDT, he’s mainly pushing the states where people are protesting against the lockdown. It won’t work dummy. The CV-19 will spike and you will politically die. DDT is playing the anti-mail voting card, which is stupid, since a large number of older conservative folk are the ones most likely to use vote by mail. The big thong is the relaxing of restrictions requires extensive testing of everyone and tracking of infected people. We are testing abut 130,000 people per day. Sounds like a lot, but at that rate is would take about 7 years to test everyone once. The reality is that large numbers will have to be tested multiple times.

16 April: MASA not MAGA: King Tut Tut is back to Putt putt (at least as soon as his golf courses open). He’s backed off to let the governors do their stuff (at least for today). DDT playing doctor has divined that the peak is past ad it is time to open the country up so that business can start, and people can die. The first is doubtful, but the second, having lots of people die, is certain. Right now, about 1% of people in the US have been infected and may have immunity, which means that 99% or the population has no immunity. If we had lots of testing and disease tracking, it might be possible to reopen and not kill lots of people. But with old feckless in charge, neither it true. Michigan may be the poster boy for new CV-19 hotspots with protests about social distancing. The gods (small g) will teach them a lesson. Good, DDT’s buddy Roger Stone’s request for a new trial has been turned down and he must report to prison in 2 weeks. The Senate is still stalemated on passing more small business funds over helping hospitals and other “liberal” ideas. Apparently, citizens are using their stimulus checks for food, gasoline, and paying back people that lent them money. This is not going to stimulate the economy. It is possible there is an effective drug for CV-10 from Gilead. More testing needed. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

15 April: MASA please, Not MAGA: King Tut Tut has wet his diaper again, threatening to force congress to adjourn so he can issue appointments to his nominees without interference from the Senate. This move would be without precedent. It is also fairly clear that he lacks the power to do so, What DDT is saying is that he is just going to order an adjournment (legal or not), make the appointments, and then let congress take it to court. He added, “let’s see who wins”. As expected, King Tut Tut has halted funding for WHO, just the kind of thig that old DDT would have done. Becoming King has not changed him for the better. YAY Late but not never. Lizzie Warren has now endorsed Joe Biden, but will she campaign for him? That remains to be seen. I am holding my breath to see who Joe picks as VP. The only thing we know now is that it will be a woman. Just make sure, Joe, that it is a well-qualified woman. There is a lot of activity planning for a reopening of the world to commerce. Let’s hope it does not lead to a spike in CV-19 reoccurring. Of course, DDT (Tut Tut) is planning to issue orders, which the governors are probably going to ignore. King TT has threatened retaliation if they disobey. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

14 April: MASA not MAGA: King tut tut threw a temper tantrum at his press review going after the enemy media and insolent reporters, one of whom tore him a new one, Good for her. DDT is halting funding for WHO. Not good, even though there is a small reason to be unhappy with the director of WHO (he has been China biased, since China got him the job). We are on the edge of a partial lifting of social isolation according to King tut tut with all the potential for disaster. Hopefully, the governors will have the will and character to resist the tut tut gut. There’s a risk there too that tut tut will turn on them both economically and when they run for reelection. It should be “who cares – people first”. Tutut’s claim of “total Authority” is not constitutional. It was purposely written to prevent just that from happening. DDT has got to go. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

13 April: MASA not MAGA: King DDT has crowned himself as the only person in the US allowed to make decisions. I am so shocked at the effrontery of the man that I will have to let someone else speak for me today.

12 April: MASA not MAGA: Some time ago, I wrote a poem that you should only read at home and have now added a few lines:

DDT step up to the tee

Hook left or hook right

Then set those children free

It's time to remove the blight

That seems to infest the House White

With nest of hair that's an orange fright

Remember, Orange is the New Black

When quickly enough you get the sack.

Pretty soon Putin will say dosvedanya

Purpose done, it's been nice to know ya

Here's our movie of the golden stream

A just reward for playing on our team

Just remember to vote and shout In November,

Throw the bums out.

Time has passed since September

Details are now hard to remember

Donald Trump has been impeached

A phony Senate verdict slyly reached

DDT is now set for more destroying

When we all thought he just toying

With our fine country and democracy

Using dumb lies, distraction and idiocy

He’s declared national emergency

To pilfer the government’s treasury 

In favor of himself and loyal friends

To abuse the cash to whatever ends

Fired the AGs that might provide honest oversight

With nary a peep from the Republican far right

We’re in a runup to a national election

With everyone trying to avoid infection

Come this November while DDT sows doubt

Please vote for Joe and throw the bums out

There are now over 20,000 CV-19 related deaths reported. However, the actual number of CV-19 deaths is higher, since many people died at home without subsequent testing for the virus. Plus 2,000 more died today. BoJo is out, recovered from CV-19. Let the nonsense resume. Oil prices are going back up since OPEC and allies have come to a deal while stock futures are falling as earnings reports come out. OMG! Strip clubs are asking for the CV-19 government bailout. They claim to have already stripped as far as they can and need help. DDT idiotically is suggesting that Fauci be fired because he, Fauci, has acknowledged that earlier intervention would have saved lives. Six more months to go and perhaps we can get rid of this lying cheating monster. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19.

11 April: MASA not MAGA: Elect Joe B and return to sanity. Joe does not have to be perfect, just reasonable sensible and quite honest. I am so tired of the lies of DDT just being DDT. It does not excuse the lying cheating crook we have for president. What? You want me to tell you how I really feel? You know I cannot do that in a G-rated (sometimes PG-13) screed. Ok stimulus checks have been electronically sent out up to $4700. I hope that big number goes to someone or some family that really needs the money. The CV-19 death rate is still astonishing. You hear some of the stories of someone losing a child or spouse and it breaks your heart to hear. DDT has spoken! “Making the decision to reopen the country is the hardest decision I have ever had to make”. That’s really true. It is so hard to figure out exactly what decision will help me get re-elected and stay of of jail. Making a mistake could be deadly. Free housing and free “food”, ughhh! Half a million people in the US now have CB-19, and more to come. What if they make a vaccine and it does not really confer immunity? Scary if we have to go through this over and over, an evil groundhog day. Perhaps there is a way out. Some states (not the Feds) are preparing a test and trace program. DDT won’t even wear a mask. I do not understand that, I t would improve his looks. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

10 April: MASA not MAGA: Madness at the top. DDT is threatening to pull out of the WHO “unless the US keeps winning cases”. I must admit that the current head of the WHO is extremely biased and incompetent, and appears to be a mouthpiece for China. But still, DDT once again shows he’s even a better dummy. DDT has to win at everything. Interesting development according to Fauci who says that it appears that recovered people are likely to be immune from further CV-19 infections. He, Fauci, wants to issue certificates to those people so that they can return to a more normal life. I hope he is right, but it does not sound right to me. They might still be brief carriers of CV-19 and can infect others. Uh Oh, Warren Buffett has just dumped $30 million in stock, perhaps bracing for a market collapse. Or, freeing up money to buy bargains later. Finally, the EU has agreed on a 500 billion Euro stimulus package that may help the poorer countries and may wind up indirectly helping the rest of the world. Lots of infighting to even get that modest package off the ground. State Farm and Geico are going to issue premium refunds. I’ll run right out and buy something. The really big news is that ZOOM is under fire for its security lapses and has real competition from Microsoft Teams. I just used MST, and it works quite well. Hot news, Neanderthals were making string 50,000 years ago and appear to have been smarter that we thought. Can DDT make string or even string two coherent thoughts together? I don’t think so. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

9 April: MASA not MAGA: Another day gone by, sigh. DDT as usual got his own self-interest at heart, now threatening to restart the economy as soon as 1 May. Now knowing DDT as we all know him, he will bluster and fume, and then if he perceives that it will not serve his interests, back off. In the meantime lack of real honest leadership is just sewing confusion and anger everywhere. Let’s hope that CV-19 is quiet in November so we can vote the bum out of office and on his way to jail (go New York). Good news, DDT approval rating on the economy has dropped to its lowest level. Biden is proposing letting people use Medicare as soon as age 60 and is asking for more student loan. This should gain him some support. BoJo is recovering. No love lost, but still good. OPEC and Russia agree, but Mexico opts out of the oil deal. What will happen to oil prices? They are so low, it has to go back up. The world is crazy, but less so than our feckless leader DDT who just gave a short incoherent speech repeating himself over and over. I’m tired tonight. More tomorrow. Vote vote vote in November, just once, but get out there and get your neighbors out there or get your absentee ballots. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

8 April: MASA not MAGA: If I were not working, I would be bored bored bored. As it is, I miss the people that used to be around me. It’s stranger that the stock market is rising again when the economic problems are on the edge of hitting the US big time. The big news is that Bernie Sanders has dropped out of the race. BUT...he is not giving up his delegates nor is he taking his name off the remaining primaries. Let's hope he and his followers support Biden. The Fed printing money will remove some urgency about poorer people not being able to pay bill, rent, and so forth, if they can get their hand on the promised checks and unemployment insurance funds. So far, not much luck with that. The state offices are overwhelmed. Perhaps Michael Yang’s idea of just sending every adult $1000 per month was not such a bad idea. True, some people do not need the money, but they are a small fraction compared to the needy. That ugly minded Navy chief, Mody, got his butt kicked out of the Navy for unthanking foul breath. But, before he left he spent $243,000 tax payer money flying to Guam on a private jet, Now he is in quarantine. Perhaps the quarantine should be extended a couple of years for just being plain stupid. According to Fauci the medieval handshake (to detect knives) is a thing of the past. It should never reappear. Perhaps just a simple hand wave, like the UK queen wave would work nicely. DDT is stating up the smear machine of made up lies against Joe Biden. Nothing new here, I just hope a large majority of the American people do not fall for this scam artist again. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

7 April: MASA not MAGA: OMG. DDT is now blaming WHO for, in his opinion, getting the pandemic wrong and threatening to with hold funding. You know, even if he does not wind up withholding funding, it so stupid to even threaten to withhold. It’s his standard tactic. Cheat lie and steal. Count your fingers if you ever get to shake his hand (NO…don’t do it). Because of poverty and crowded living conditions it appears that blacks and other poor people are suffering the most from CV-19. The idiot Republicans in Wisconsin are pushing ahead with the primary elections in spite of it being public health disaster. They know if they let people vote, there will be no Republican party left. Bernie is still there and planning to stay in the race even though almost hopeless. His ego is just too damn big. The one good piece of news today is that outrageous Navy secretary resigned after giving an awful speech to the crew of the aircraft carrier infected with CV-19, calling the courageous captain stupid or even worse a military criminal. I hope that democrats win big this autumn and then right the wrongs caused by this malicious vengeful administration. OMG. DDT has a financial interest in the drug he’s been pushing. We should have known that a dedicated criminal cannot stop. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

6 April: MASA not MAGA: Time is going slower now. Must be a relativistic effect from spending too much time seated in a chair simulating reduced gravity (not serious, but it sure feels that way). All the junk just keeps happening and will keep happening until the Republicans get out of the way or are driven out of the way. The top court (nothing too supreme about it now) has just ruled that absentee ballots cannot be postmarked late even with the difficulties caused buy the CV-19 virus. Their claim is that delay would alter the nature of the election. Of course, it is CV-19 that has altered the course of the elections. BoJo is in intensive care. I hope he makes it back to real life, perhaps a bit chastened. DDT’s social scientist Navarro says he knows how to read graphs and analysis better than a real scientist, Fauci. Where does DDT find the nut jobs? Fauci, sadly, is saying that we may never get back to normal, since CV-19 is likely to be seasonal. Unless, of course, a really effective vaccine is produced. Oh no, the CVhicago mayor got a haircut in defiance of the CV-19 stay at home orders. Sigh. New Zealand has pronounced the tooth fairy and Easter bunny as essential workers. Why not? A bunny and a fairy cannot due as much damage as a horses nether quarters (DDT), who considers himself super-essential. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

5 April: MASA not MAGA: Today was Sunday, a day when nothing much happens. There was the usual ignorable tweetstorm BS from DDT as the CV-19 pandemic grinds on with avoidable shortages of medical equipment. The auto makers are gearing up to produce large numbers of ventilators, with GM producing supplicated ones actually needed and Ford producing portable short term (while you are in the ambulance short) that are not particularly needed. There are the usual scams going around with people pretending to be medical personnel and people trying to scam other people out of money. The really big news is that tiger at the Bronx zoo came down with CV-19. This means it is transmissible back to animals (not good). How about dogs and cats? Boris Johnson is in the hospital with CV-19 out of “an abundance of caution”. I do not like BoJo, but hope he survives. Good news, Cuomo says the number of NYC deaths has dropped a little over the past few days. That’s an improvement over the previous alarming statistics. The Kush is in charge of the federal response to CV-19. The chair of the Ohio Democratic Party did not mince words, “Kushner has terrible judgment, and I don’t remember a decision he’s been involved with that hasn’t just been bad – they’ve been horrible. And the idea that everything has to go through the very flawed judgment of Jared Kushner is downright scary, and I believe at this point is costing American lives.” Apparently it was Kushner that urged DDT to open up the US by Easter. The really scary thing is that CV-19 is likely to be seasonal, so by October or November, we could be back in a second wave, hopefully better prepared and with DDT on his way out. Good for Biden, who says the dismissal of the aircraft captain was close to criminal. However, it is worth noting that the captain would have had to leave shortly anyway, since he tested positive for CV-19. Stocks are set to jump higher tomorrow. Why? Who knows. Both the firings of the captain and the national security IG are reprehensible act of the DDT administration. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

4 April: MASA not MAGA: The Chinese just donated 1000 ventilators. Nice gesture. I do not care if they gain a propaganda value. The disease is peaking in the north eastern cities and 1000 ventilators could save 1000 lives. It’s hard to believe that DDT would come down hard on Brett Crozier, the aircraft carrier captain who tried to save his crew from CV-19. We have a nut job as President and a mean one at that. If Biden wins, I hope he rights these wrongs. Apparently, idiocy is a requirement to be in DDT’s family. Shrewd and opportunism works, but not intelligence. Tucker Carlson, that world renowned scientist, is claiming that Fauci doesn’t know his stuff. Right! And of course, DDT has fired and now attacks the the intelligence watchdog that sent the Ukraine information to congress. DDT is like a mafia boss, crooked and vengeful. Will the stock market crash more on Monday as oil prices crater? Tune in on Tuesday. DDT is calling for the NFL season to start on time this year. Perhaps they should stay six feet apart or play touch football with no blocking contact. Too tired of this CV-19 mess to write more. But it is worth mentioning that our noble Senate leader McConnell has nominated an unqualified right-wing sycophant to the highest appeals court. More judicial unqualified (ABA) appointments. Judicial pollution. Sad. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

3 April: MASA nor MAGA: Death toll now over 1200: Unemployment rising rapidly to over 2 million. DDT now say he won’t wear a mask since it would make him less attractive to look at when negotiating with foreign leaders. For once I agree with him, no mask. A bag over his head would be much better. Kushner has been demonstrating his professional incompetence at almost anything he tries. He tried talking about the CV-19 problem and medical shortages and wound up botching the whole thing. It sounded like he wanted to hoard equipment. NYC’s de Blasio is echoing the governor in sayig that NYC has about 1 week of supplies. Then what. Leave people to die in the street. Fauci told Fox news to stuff it, telling them with respect to a possible cure, “we do not operate on how you feel”. Good for you Fauci. The Wisconsin democratic governor tried to delay the primary voting to give people a chance to prepare for voting in the face of CV-19. The Republican legislature said nope, go ahead even if prevents people form voting. Oh good, DDT denies that a major recession is coming. I’m sure everyone, including you, believe that prediction. Throw the Bum Out. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

2 April: MASA not MAGA: Who knew the Republicans have cornered the ignorant fool market. Georgia’s governor, Brian Kemp, has just admitted he’s been hiding under a rock and did not hear the warning that infected people without obvious symptoms can spread CV-19. Now that he’s squirmed out from under the rock, he’s fessed up and swears he will maintain social distance. DDT said today that the states are greedy going after much needed equipment, while the NY governor Cuomo now says the state has supplies for only 6 more days. What happens after that? Well, it’s DDT’s medical plan for all, die and die quickly, and quit wasting resources and Medicare. After all, who needs medical insurance when you are dead and buried. Ouch! Spain now has 10,000 deaths, rotting corpses litter the streets in some countries, and the US death toll is rising so quickly that refrigerator trucks are being used to hold the bodies. Meanwhile our feckless leader just complains and gives endless empty bragging briefings that are mostly lies and contain little useful information. We need a real human as President, not a monkey pretending to be human (sorry monkeys). Once again, I must applaud the health care workers who are putting their lives on the line and working extremely long hours to save our lives. There are now more than 1 million CV-19 cases worldwide, incredible, and growing. I wonder what exactly was in the transport plane that Putin sent to NY? Who knows? One good thing happened in the past two days. Network TV cut away from DDT’s talkathon to present some real news. Now if we could just limit him to 2 minutes before switching to something real, we could declare a victory over idiocy. TBO. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

1 April 2020: MASA not MAGA: Today is April Fools day, but with DDT every day is fools day. He’s a man of all seasons so you can count on him to always be a total empty shirt. US intelligence concludes that China concealed the extend of CV-19, and DDT says he doesn’t know if China under reported CV-19. Why does the press bother with what he says. Ignore the idiot. California is trying to recruit people to help with the CV-19 medical crises and had 25,000 signups on the first day. This says something positive about real people. Just read that Pence is crazy lying by claiming that DDT never downplayed the CV-19 pandemic. Two liars working together. I’ve no respect for either of them, DDT and DLP (dumb lying Pence). I wonder if Pence gets sick with CV-19, will he allow a nurse to take care of him without his wife present in the room? While I do not wish CV-19 on anyone, it is an amusing thought about Pence. The right wing nut-jobs have gone after Fauci for his direct style of telling the truth and for being apparently disturbed when on stage with DDT while DDT was going on about the “Deep State Department”. Kelly the mouth Conway has been attacking Biden for practicing social separation claiming he holed up in his “bunker”. Of course, when asked for specifics, she, as usual, just ducked and weaved. A total jerk. I’ve heard that the Federal supplies have run out. Really great management by DDT. If he wasn’t so stubborn and dumb, DDT would have been working on the problem when warned in February. Instead he was more interested in himself and the election. Putin has sent an airplane to the US with CV-19 supplies. Thanks P, now start acting like a statesman and quit with support for ugly despots (Syria and Venezuela). TBO. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets 100's of thousands killed by CV-19. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

31 March: MASA not MAGA: Just listened to DDT spout off a bunch of self-serving numbers that mean almost nothing. He’s good at blaming everyone but himself for his failures. Now he’s blaming the impeachment trial as a distraction that kept him from acting in January. What BS. As late as middle March DDT was proclaiming the CV-19 problem as a hoax. America, we have got to get rid of this fraud in November. The Republicans are now objecting to making it easier to vote in the face of the CV-19 pandemic with McConnel saying right out that letting more people vote will mean that Republicans will be frozen out of power. He’s probably right, but our democracy is supposed to work by letting everyone eligible (being a citizen) vote. DDT is now calling for another 2 trillion dollar package ostensibly for use in building infrastructure. Noble cause, but major construction using cheap borrowed money in a time of pandemic is crazy. I can just see construction workers staying 6 feet apart, right. The death toll in the US is now at 3,000 and rising rapidly. Still a long way from 100,000. Fauci said tonight that social distancing is working to flatten the curve. What he Is not saying is that flattening the curve only delays more people getting sick. This is a good thing relative to the hospital load, but not the whole truth to the public. The stock market is going down again, both today and in futures trading. For the ordinary person who likes to sleep at night, out is the place to be. Right now is a good time to follow Warren Buffet’s two rules of stock investing. Rule 1: Do not lose money by investing. Rule 2: See Rule 1. DDT is claiming that the testing problem has been solved. The lie has been pointed out by the nations governors, especially Maryland’s Republican Governor Hogan. Looks like Putin has been exposed to CV-19. Perhaps serving as President for life is not such a bad idea after all. Spain and France are suffering their worst day with respect to CV-19 deaths while Italy, still in dire straits, has leveled off a bit. The people bearing the brunt of the CV-19 onslaught are the health care providers in the hospitals (and of course the sick and dying). The work conditions and hours of work are not sustainable. We should all be ever so grateful to them. TBO. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. Let's get rid of the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

30 March: MASA not MAGA: The "ends" of March. Will CV-19 ever end? Hopefully by the time summer comes around. The problem this virus will keep infecting those who have not been infected until a vaccine is available. Humans have no natural resistance to this virus. Eventually, as everyone catches the virus, the survivors will have antibodies. We desperately need a vaccine. It would help if we had real leadership instead of a liar and fabricator. Fortunately, most of the governors are playing straight, but not all. New York City is being overwhelmed with too many sick people and too little staff and equipment. Unfortunately, this is likely to happen in other cities (Los Angeles, Chicago). California received 170 broken ventilators, but they are being fixed. If you think DDT is bad, Brazil’s Bolsonaro is worse. This egoist is likening CV-19 to a mild case of flu and refusing to socially distance people. Hopefully, he will be a one-term president just like DDT. ON the economic front, Macys and Kohls are furloughing workers, huge numbers, and who knows if these stores will survive the pandemic. TBO. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Get rid of AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

29 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 14: First it’s Easter that we all go back to the “old” life and now, since DDT has been threatened with political ownership of all the resulting deaths, we are back to the end of April. Probably, this will shift to the end of May. Belatedly, supplies from the US strategic stockpile are starting to arrive at the CV-19 hotspots, although in inadequate numbers. Anything is better than the former nothing. DDT is now saying that keeping the death toll to 100,000 should be considered as job well done. Dr. Fauci is warning that the US death toll could be 200,000. What’s a factor of 2 among friends? He’s got a way to go. The US death toll is only about 2500 as of today. Of course, DDT cannot resist making fun of the health care providers claiming that they are using too many face masks. Too bad he cannot be in the hospitals with or without a facemask. Biden was on Chuck Todd’s Meet the Press today and went after DDT in a big way. Chuck Todd, however asked Biden if DDT has blood on his hands for his poor performance on the CV-19 pandemic. I’m sure it was tempting for Biden to say “yes”, but nice guy Joe admonished Todd, saying “that is too harsh”. DDT is criticizing New York hospitals for hoarding masks and ventilators because he’s heard stories (called making it up). What we need is a leader focused on getting things done, not attacks on people risking their lives. On the economic front, unemployment is rising rapidly and there is a looming crisis in the housing/mortgage area affecting banks. Sounds a bit like 2008. The best thing going for us is that most of the governors seem competent and focused. Another crises for the sates and feds is that tax revenues are drying up from the general economic downturn. The feds can always just print money (inflation anybody?) while the states will have to cut budgets drastically. TBO. Hope for no major war with Iran or Russia. If DDT's hopefully one-term presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

28 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 13: Same old Same old: Fight the virus and down with DDT. Get rid of 2 pests. Hopefully at least one of them will never come back, but I am afraid the virus might be seasonal. John Kerry had a good one today. You remember stiff John Kerry closely losing the presidency and Secretary of State under Obama. Well, today he showed the internal Kerry (no splinters there), John Kerry: "GOP lawmaker against coronavirus package 'tested positive for being an ---hole'." Wow who knew? Should apply to DDT as well, negative for CV-19, but…. Funny, but wish I had thought of it first. "Breaking news: Congressman Massie has tested positive for being an asshole. He must be quarantined to prevent the spread of his massive stupidity. He's given new meaning to the term #Masshole. (Finally, something the president and I can agree on!)," Kerry, who represented Massachusetts in the Senate, said in a tweet on Friday. DDT has proposed building a wall around NY making it like a roach motel, you can go in but can’t come out. Of course the wall is not literal, but just some kind of quarantine. Fortunately, DDT has no authority to be as stupid as he sounds. How stupid does he sound, well yesterday he said he will not talk to governors unless they sound appreciative for all of DDT’s efforts. The would require the governors to lie. Talking about quarantines, today some states have started border checks, particularly on vacationers from other states. Another goodie today. DDT says he won’t comply with key transparency measures in the coronavirus stimulus bill, especially not the Inspector General that congress created to oversee the distribution of 2 trillion and won’t provide documentation for audits into $500 billion in corporate bailout funds. In other words, he wants the money to be his private piggy bank to use it to bribe friends and help with his reelection. Got to get the crook out of the White House. He has already destroyed and semblance of leadership that the US has and is undermining its institutions. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

27 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 12: Time just drifts by and suddenly, it’s the weekend. The weekend, not much to look forward to now, since it’s just like the weekdays. Sun comes up, birds, chirp, sun goes down only to get ready for the next day. However, I'm endlessly grateful not to be suffering the plague of CV-19. In that sense, boring is good. Watching DDT today haranguing Cuomo over the number of ventilators needed in New York as their infection rate continues to climb illustrates what DDT's ignorance and arrogance. In an interview with Sean Hannity DDT said “I don’t believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators. You know, you go into major hospitals sometimes, they’ll have two ventilators. And now all of a sudden they’re saying can we order 30,000 ventilators?” As a leader DDT is pathetic, pathetic beyond stupid. If he was smarter, I would say he is a psychopath willing to kill people for his own benefit. The real amazement comes from the fact that polls show his approval rating rising. The 2 trillion CV-19 bill has passed. Now comes the problem of getting the money where it is needed. It certainly will help some people pay their rent or mortgages. Oh, BoJo has CV-19 with admittedly mild symptoms. Hopefully he will stay on top of the situation in the UK. The stock market is down a little, ho hum. The next few weeks will be a time that really needs leadership, but I suspect that the leadership will have to come from the governors most of whom are more than passable competent. More people for DDT to blame. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

26 March: MASA not MAGA: Day ?? I forget which day this is. Day11? What the hell is going on? Unemployment is rising, industry shutting down, and an aid package that is a drop in the bucket compared to what is really needed, especially for hospitals, and yet the stock market is rising. Is this the bounce before the fall (dead cat bounce) or just a case of unreasonable exuberance at all the money flowing around? All this with DDT shooting off his big mouth proclaiming poor maligned me. I (DDT) am doing nothing, so why should I get blamed? It’s all Obama’s fault, even DDT’s gut is Obama’s fault. You see if Obama had been fat, DDT would have to become skinny. It was totally unfair for Obama to be in good shape. Or, perhaps it is fake news and doctored pictures. Biden is disappearing into the cracks. He needs a writer to help him say really pithy comments about DDT to get back into the news cycle. Like “DDT is so stupid” How stupid is he? “well, they are measuring his IQ on the Richter scale” to give him the biggest score ever. As you know, DDT never listens to advisors. He’s been advised to flush after #1 or #2, but he watches FOX instead. After all, DDT says, “What are trophy wives for”. Why didn’t DDT test positive for CV-19. That’s because all his tests are negative. Enough juvenile bad jokes. Enjoy your unemployment checks for as long as they last. I understand that the latest thoughts are that CV-19 may be seasonal in its intensity. Gives us all something to look forward to instead of the boring flu. DDT is proclaiming that this is all the fault of the press putting out bad news to hurt his reelection chances. One only wishes that this were the truth. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

25 March: MASA not MAGA: The dastard, DDT is not using his avowedly omniscient powers without his usual mendacity to figure out the best moves for the country devoid of personal self-interest. And yes, I can spell dastard with a d. OMG! DDT’s businesses are barred from receiving aid from the current Senate bill. Now to figure out which cruise lines and hotels are his. At least Biden is listening to the medical advice and is warning not just about this wave but of the likely secondary wave. NY State has warned that the amount of money in the 2-trillion dollar package slated for NY is woefully inadequate. Cuomo leveled some pithy remarks at the president that I cannot repeat here. Here it comes. California is seeing 1 million unemployment claims in less that 2 weeks. And that’s just California. Some of you will be getting supplemental checks from the government that, fortunately, is income based. That should help with food and housing. Good for you Joe. News is that you are cool towards another scream session with Bernie. Enough Bernie for now and forever. Finally, Putin has admitted that Russia has a CV-19 problem along with a Putin problem. Hopefully Russia will solve at least one of these. A key Netanyahu aid has resigned permitting their parliament to convene and get down to business. Spain, following Italy, is turning into a CV-19 horror story, and DDT want to make sure that the US receives the same headlines. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 9: Weather was nice to day. Worked remotely and marveled at the quiet. Stock market was up up up today, but still way down down  for the month. You did nto know it, but today is VC day, right up there with VE day and other world war victories. DDT today proclaimed that he has won the war for America over CV-19 by his personal strength of character and intrinsic scientific knowledge. We are all to celebrate the great victory on Easter, or at least those of us still standing. Off to the football games revel in the crowds, and to hell with this fake CV-19 scare. After all, the death rate up to today is way less that the flu. Of course, if we follow the predictions of people who know a thing or two, the death toll could be in the millions, way higher than the flu. DDT is suggesting older people get out in the crowds and die sooner to save Social Security and hos presidency. I just made that up, bu tit is not too far from his beady little mind. By tomorrow, or the next few days, we will have an enormous amount of cash flowing into the economy, some of it directly to workers. If they are smart, they will hoard the money and only use it for essentials. WJHO says that the US is likely to become the next epicenter of CV-19 and look a lot like Italy. New York City will probably be first to fall into that pit. It is unbelievable to me. DDT’s approval rating is at an all-time high. Who are these people? Perhaps it will take 1 to 2 million people dying to wake up the idiots. There is more going on in the world other than CV-19, but you would never know it. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

23 March: MASA Not MAGA: Day 8: Our fearless leader has done it again. He has announced that he will announce a new un-policy of having America return to business as usual despite the CV-19 threat. Rather than simply help those in need, he deems it better to risk millions of lives to make it a better place for his re-election. DDT’s ego and lack of confidence is astounding leading to crass policy choices that benefit him and not the nation. I do not think the governors of the states will go along, but even at the Federal level DDT can do lots of damage. The DDT equation is simple. Pour money into the stock market (GoFundMe for big corporations) and into businesses he owns (hotels and cruise lines) and get the indices looking better so that his cohorts will continue to vote for him. It appears not to be enough that the Fed is printing money at a furious rate and keeping interest rates at zero. Poor DDT, judges block DDT from blocking criticism on his Twitter account ruling that this is the main way the president communicates with the public. With the furious inaction from DDT, the US is carefully following Italy into the ditch. This next week is expected to be overwhelming with respect to our medical system. The US, unlike South Korea, seems in capable of mounting a campaign of testing and equipping hospitals with the protective gear health workers need. Plus, the manufacturing of ventilators could be dramatically accelerated by supporting the companies capable of producing them or requiring temporary technology transfer to larger corporations. Rand Paul needs to be renamed Rancid Paul for his behavior during the 7 days between being tested for CV-19 and when his positive results came back. Unlike decent mortals, he just ignored his known exposure and met with various people, used gym facilities, and too no other steps for self-quarantining himself (including appearing on the Senate floor). He also used the members only gym on the morning of receiving the positive test result. The man is simply immoral in my opinion. Right now the problem in the US is in the big cities with high population densities and an extreme shortage of medical facilities. An edict from on high to return to life as normal will certainly overwhelm the US. If we can last until November and vote him out, and then last until January 20 when DDT gets evicted (homeless? Nah), perhaps a new administration can start to play straight with America. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

22 March: MASA NOT MAGA: Day 7 just like day 6 except for the COLOR funnies in Sunday newspaper. Grasping for anything different. Normally, that today was a bit cold would not be worth noticing this early in Spring. But, I did notice the CHANGE. There is a really good article in the April issue of Atlantic Magazine on “How to Destroy a Government”. Basically, it is how we were all naïve about how easily DDT has been able to violate accepted norms and thwart the normally self-correcting mechanisms against extreme behavior in cahoots with a supine Senate led by a power-hungry leader, McConnel. The naïve thought was that adults in the room (his cabinet) would keep the child-as-President pointed in the right direction. Well, the temper tantrum child fooled us all and got rid of the adults in favor of diaper changing sycophants. When DDT poops (often) they just wipe up the mess leaving a bad odor and a sticky residue and give him revised pants (called never-happened pants). Elect him again and you can forget about the democracy we have all grown up in and prospered. What we have found out is that the bounds on the three independent branches are more of a gentleman’s agreement (and DDT is no gentleman) than a hard rule of law. This is especially true when the justice department and the courts are no longer independent, but willfully anointing DDT as king. If we get rid of the pest in November, there is a chance that we can recover under honest and intelligent leadership. Rand Paul has tested positive for CV-19. Not to worry Rand, DDT has the problem in hand, and you can take the old-drug cure proposed by DDT. Remember, according to DDT he has a natural knack for science, who knew? DDT keeps recommending chloroquine even though it can poison you with a small overdose. Wait, perhaps this is what DDT had in mind. Pure genius (gotta admire the genius of it all). If you poison yourself with chloroquine you can never catch CV-19. Perfect. Pandemic stopped dead in its tracks. That's because I don’t think CV-19 can infect dead people. We’ve got to get rid of the smartest genius in the stable, a true horse’s real end. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

21 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 6. Had coffee with friends remotely. How we miss our routines. I guess we are slowly adapting to this new life devoid of real activity even though, in my case, still working. Tomorrow, more of the same. The CV-19 situation is growing worse in the US with little real action on the part of government to fix the situation with not enough ventilators and not enough hospital beds. Reading stories about other countries, especially 3rd world countries in the middle east and Africa is really scary. Russia seems to have mainly cases of pneumonia but almost no CV-19. H’mm sounds a bit suspicious, perhaps a cover-up. If it takes off in Russia with their dilapidated medical system, panic will occur, At home all 50 states now have CV-19 cases, even West Virginia just got its first case. Italy might be a bellwether for New York City with a rising infection and death rate. It looks like Pence is in the clear after testing. He tested negative for CV-19. The US is slowly shutting down with unemployment rising and the stock market falling. How low will it go? DOW = 10000? Health care workers are running short of protective gear and coming down with CV-19 themselves. The combination of the spread of the virus and the shortages is a second crises in the making. So far, food is available, but not toilet paper. Will the US survive the lack of TP? Only time will tell. DDT is now falsely denying that there were early warnings of the CV-19 assault. There were reports, even I heard some, and DDT pointedly ignored them trying to dismiss the problem so it would not affect his chances at re-election. What should I believe, my own eyes and ears, or DDT's revisionist history? Get rid of the Dumbo in November, please. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

20 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 5 and what a day it was. The markets swooned again, people are dying, and DDT is lying. Well, 2 out of 3 new things ain’t bad. Another brand-new thing. DDT threw a tantrum today at a reporter that asked him a softball question. That ego is getting more and more fragile. O wow, Now your state has opined that liquor stores are essential and can stay open. Another state has declared houses of prostitution essential. Weird. The studies suggest that the US will lose over 1 million people or 2 million if we continue as we are now. This administration has got to step up its game in the medical area and get the equipment needed to combat dying. Oh good, a senator has profited from CV-19 by seeming to sell stock at its high on advance insider information. Of course, he denies it all. Just good luck. This tragedy is just starting to get bad, unemployment will skyrocket, perhaps reaching 20%. There has got to be relief for the poor. Toilet paper shortage is becoming a crisis as people use alternatives that clog sewer pipes. A disaster in the making that will affect us all. Finally, BoJo in England has closed bars and restaurants before it becomes like Italy. DDT is still downplaying the crises even as he fakes doing everything possible. He’s invoked the war-powers act, but has he ordered medical equipment be manufactured, NO. What a jerk. The only thing he is interested in is the upcoming election. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

19 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 4 is ending. The days seem longer than before. I bet day 5 is longer than day 4. The republicans have put up an aid bill in the Senate that promises $1500 for people making less than $75,000 and tapering off above that. At least it is focused on people that need it the most. It looks as if there may be some existing drugs that treat the worst part of a CV-19 infection. If so, that would help a lot. However, this is just speculation, which hhas not stopped DDT from touting the possibility as if it were real. Funny. Moscow Mitch is complaining that his democrat rival is saying bad things about him during the CV-19 pandemic. Mitch says saying bad things against him should be suspended of the duration. Of course, that does not apply to the negative campaigning he is doing against others all over the country. Poor Mitch! Send him to the ditch. Hey a new slogan, “Ditch Mitch”. Sorry Mitch (not really). Italy has set a new record and exceeded the number of death’s in China. NYC infection numbers have doubled, now standing at over 3600. Yes, it’s just like DDT. He told governors to buy their own CV-19 equipment and then had the federal government outbid them. Will he, or won’t he? Will Bernie withdraw, or won’t he? Or will he try to destroy our chances to get rid of the pest, DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

18 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 3 of self-quarantine for social distance. I got in the habit of being productive again so that the day felt more useful. Let's see how tomorrow goes. It's a little like being retired except no travel, no gym, no eating out, no theater, and no meeting friends. DDT has now declared himself a war time president. What nerve. It never stops: his ego is just insatiable. At least he now is moving to help people with finances. The last rumor was $2000 per adult and $1000 per child plus other massive debt incurring moves. DDT, at least target the help to those that need it. We are coming up on the equivalent of 2008 bailouts. It worked before and hopefully it will work again. DDT has now grabbed more power for himself invoking the War Powers Act. Used responsibly, this is appropriate getting industry to produce needed equipment to combat CV-19. I worry that there are probably ways to abuse this act and DDT is sure to find them. World CV-19 cases have exceeded 200,000 with deaths proportional. The basic agreement is that we are sliding into a recession with predictions of high unemployment and a slow recovery in manufacturing and service jobs. The only good thing about CV-19 is that it may derail DDT. Unfortunately, it is a high cost to get rid of a pest that never should have been in a position of power in the first place. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

17 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 2 of the self-quarantine for social distancing is leading to a mild case of cabin fever. Most everything social is closed including gyms needed for routine exercise. Made a trip to the grocery store to buy some essentials including a small supply of cookies (psychological comfort food). Working from home is OK, but an absolute bore compared to interacting with colleagues. Research type work is a solitary endeavor in part anyway, so productivity remains high. Not everyone is so fortunate. Large numbers of people are simply out of work and out of income. So many of these people are low income with little in savings. Food and rent or mortgage payments are a looming problem. Finally, DDT is shifting his attitude after his chief medical advisor, Tucker Carlson of Fox news, came out and complained that people in authority (read DDT) were not taking the CV-19 threat seriously. Even Newt Gingrich has now belatedly given up the conspiracy theories and said, “Get Real”. Nothing much else is in the news other than CV-19 and the problems developing in the US and the rest of the world. Minor stuff is occurring as China expels news correspondents, Iran proxies fire rockets at US troops, and the stock market gyrates and basically crashes. Should you expect a nearly useless 1000-dollar check in your mail? Sounds like it. For people really in need of money for essentials, this will be a good thing, but for a huge number of people receiving such a benefit, $1000 is a drop in the bucket relative to income and expenses. However, it is good publicity for DDT with respect to the November election. It shows he’s doing something even if this something does little more than raise the national debt. The House, with cooperation between Pelosi and Mnuchin, has passed legislation addressing the real problem of temporary unemployment and medical care. So far DDT and his henchmen are opposed. Let’s hope the ideologs in the Republican party can see beyond the end of their collective noses. Take advice for Nunes and go out and eat at restaurants and feel free to party together. There must be another stable genius guiding us through these perilous times (translate: horse’s ass in the stable). TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

16 March: MASA not MAGA: Day 1 of the quarantine. Not too bad if you bought your supplies early. Stores have been attacked by human locusts and stripped bare of many products. However, essentials like cookies are still available. Another interesting factoid is a measure of which dry cereal is most popular, with Cheerios winning the empty shelf contest hands down. Paper products have disappeared as have some cleaning products. Paper towels in the bathroom signify a "rough" life. Frozen food is available, but there are some categories that have been raided (pizza). The locusts will run into a problem shortly, namely the lack of storage space at home or a lack of available cash for such an investment in consumables. Either way, the supply will return to normal fairly soon as the hoarders become glutted. UNLEES, delivery by truck becomes affected by CV-19. Then real chaos. DDT is at his  best issuing proclamations in his usual 5-year old voice with simple declarative sentences that contain almost no information. He is the best (at mentally being 5 years old). The stock market cratered and will probably bump up tomorrow and then crater again on Wednesday. Oh well. With leadership like DDT’s, how can we fail, well, let me count the ways. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

15 March MASA not MAGA: It is time for electing a president that is liberal in bent but stable and honest to guide the nation and not mock out allies. DDT has made a mess, just like a 3-year old might, and it is time for adults to clean it up and get on with making the country a better place to live for everyone. I definitely want improvement in the delivery of social services to everyone, but not at the expense of totally disrupting the economic life of the US. On the medical end, Obama care was a good start in making insurance available to the poor but had a defect for those above income level needed for a subsidy yet not wealthy enough to easily afford the middle level of Obamacare. This needs to be fixed or a Medicare option should be available. The news headline says that the Fed has cut interest rates to zero and is going to institute a 700-billion-dollar plan to buy securities and loans (quantitative easing redux). Next week we will see how the stock market reacts to the combined threats of a national shutdown and a huge amount of money being pumped into the economy. DDT of course had a wild day with a Sunday tweetstorm that everyone should just ignore and get on with life. It’s a 3-year old temper tantrum with every bit as much meaning. Schools and businesses are shutting down for a while. This is along the lines recommended by Fauchi who said the he was in favor of a 2-week quarantine for everyone if it could be accomplished. We are not at the Italy stage yet, but the spread of the disease in the US is accelerating so that anything to “flatten the curve” (slow the spread down) is a good idea. Apparently DDT tried to bribe-purchase a German company making a vaccine against CV-19 wanting it exclusively for the US. Fortunately the German company told him to take his marbles and go home, the vaccine is for the world. November cannot come too soon. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

14 March: MASA not MAGA: Took a break today from the rough and tumble of the combined trauma of CV-19 and the upcoming debate between Bernie S and Joe Biden. The Bernie Bro's are threatening not to vote for Biden, preferring to cut their noses off to spite their faces. It's stupid, but then what would you expect from any pack of extremists right or left. More tomorrow. 

13 March: MASA not MAGA: “Who Me?” “No, I do not take any responsibility for the CV-19 screwup, I blame Obama” Who said that? A) George Bush, B) Clinton, D) McConnel, E) DDT. Tick Tock Tick Tock, BZZZZZZt. Yeah you guessed it. It’s E for National Emergency, which we have had on our hands for over 3 years and now really have it on our hands. If only soap and water for 20 seconds would get rid of both pests. In November you get your chance to wash the slate clean again and get sanity back to our country. Sad sad, DDT does not like the very sensible Pelosi bill to deal with CV-19, since it does not dump money to rich people, but instead might help those who need it most. According to DDT, even though exposed to CV-19, the great I do not need to self-isolate. No virus would dare to enter this fantastic most healthy burger fueled body. Right! TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

12 March: MASA: NOT MAGA: DDT’s oval office speech was a bust. I listened to it. He was reading from a teleprompter without a trace of emotion or a sense of how bad the CV-19 problem really is to the people of the US and world. It was clear he did not have a clue about what her was reading, plus it was full of errors and gave no real information to the public. An empty shirt with an empty head. If it is not about DDT, the who cares, right? And, it showed. Today the market went down almost 10% in spite fo the Fed injecting a huge amount of cash into the banking system. Suspending travel from Europe sounds good on the surface but is not a real response to the CV-19 crises. Right now, the country is in the start of a shutdown phase, which will lead to economic disruption. Congress could ease this problem, but already the Republicans are fighting over a bill that the House sent to them for extended unemployment insurance, income maintenance, access to testing, and so on. The DDT solution of suspending the payroll tax and changing the tax deadline mostly helps the rich. WOW. Italy has a death toll over 1000. Also, the Chinese are playing stupid trying to blame the US for CV-19, and especially the US Army for the Pandemic. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

11 March: MASA: It is now official. Bernie has announce that he wants to yell at Joe B and get him rattled during the next unnecessary debate. So Joe, stay calm and remember that Bernie Sanders (BS for short) is just that, a johnny-one-note and BS loudmouth with serious flaws. The big thing is that he is for revolution without the smarts to pull it off. No one has the smarts to pull off revolution without hurting a lot of people in the transition. Joe B’s positions on evolution towards social justice are much more workable. So, let Bernie get shrill. He will come off as the curmudgeon he has always been, and no one likes an angry unpleasant old man. Meanwhile, DDT is trying to buy the election by calling for a major tax cut and a cut in the payroll tax. What is needed is extended unemployment help and some help for the poor to pay their bills, not another tax cut for the wealthy. Hang onto his every word tonight at 9 and find out the true solution to all our problems. If it’s bad, Obama and the Democrats did it, if it’s tax cuts then they are beautiful and will trickle down to you in an unbelievably beautiful way. We need a real leader, not a sociopath, get rid of DDT. I almost forgot, but in the news today was a report that DDT classified meetings concerning the CV-19 pandemic on national security grounds. The result was that a lot of the medical experts did not have security clearances and were permitted in the meeting. Fortunately, medical leaders like Fauchi are not cowed by DDT. When questioned, the administration fed us pablum about how they are the most transparent ever. The extent of DDT’s idiocy never ends. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

10 March: MASA: Joe No! Bad language to a possible voter. Lost your cool. You are going to need all that cool in the run to the November election against the blabber mouth in chief. Good news. It appears that Joe has won big tonight in Michigan and Mississippi. Got to knock that angry old man out of the election (Bernie S in case you could not guess). Market was up a little today (5%) and is projected to go down tomorrow. So called dead-cat bounce. DDT is proposing a 0% payroll tax (read social security) to stimulate you to go out and get in crowds at the mall. And DDT is asking for another big tax cut to further increase the nation’s debt. He’s a shameless B, totally self-serving. Let the Fed do its job and leave the taxes alone. You rich guys have fleeced the country enough. Noting much else tonight. Turkey is causing problems with refugees at the border with Greece trying to blackmail the sleeping EU into doing something to help. Putin is seeking legislation to permit himself to serve for 2 more terms. Amazing that he gets away with such garbage. DDT only wishes he could do the same. TBO. Hope for no major war.

9 March: MASA: Time March(es) on. Spring has sprung. It was over 70 and the CV-19 ignored the warm weather. As usual, DDT, the genius in the stable (did I get the word order right?), is wrong. Now DDT is going to bribe us with a reduction in the payroll tax (read Social Security and Medicare) to make the bad virus go away so that we can buy buy buy and fly fly fly. Cruise to Hawaii anyone – real cheap. I thought not. Oh no: The Chicago Tribune has figured it out, lies cannot stop the virus and DDT will find this out. Poor guy, he’s going to bruise his channel changing finger. Now there is a fourth cruse ship not able to dock. Guys, just sit in your tiny cabins and cool it. All will be well for you in a month or so curtesy of DDT and his fine government quarantine hospitality. Goodie! The White House Press Secretary says that the Super Healthy DDT will be just fine during the CV-19 outbreak. He’s washing his hot dogs with soap as any good germaphobe would do. Just washing with soap, no rinsing. However, DDT did shake hands with people who have since gone into self-imposed quarantine. If he catches CV-19, it will be the best case yet (he always gests the most fantastic things). Of more minor note, the stock market fell by almost 8% today with oil prices dropping by 50%. The latter over a spat between Russia and Saudi Arabia abut who can pump more oil faster and cheaper. Check back tomorrow and see what the stock market does. Is your retirement plan in a nosedive? Not to worry, soon there will be shelters for homeless seniors, but not unto CV-19 fades into memory. Remember to vote the dumb clown out of office in November, and that includes you Bernie folks even if he does not get the nomination. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

8 March: MASA: Just so that you know that DDT is not worried at all now that CV-19 is in the DC area. Of course not. DDT does not use Metro, eat at normal restaurants, or have a normal unprotected job. Just like Alfred E Newman, “What Me Worry”. Ted Cruz is taking leave to quarantine himself for a week or two from his onerous Senate duties, with pay, I might add. DDT is recruiting Big Pharma to rescue his bacon. Good luck. North Korea has fired more iron into the ocean, Shrug! Fauchi, head of infectious diseases at NIH is saying that quarantines of some areas in the US may be necessary. Careful Fauchi, you are running against the delivered wisdom of the “Wise One”. I’ll give Fauchi credit, he’s honest to a fault and not the least afraid of DDT. Bernie S is asking Lizzie and her supporters for backing. Hopefully not. Biden needs to concentrate on Michigan. Win that and Bernie is almost out of the race. I say almost because that critter is stubborn and cantankerous. No matter, I just want DDT OUT! TBO. Hope for no major war.

7 March: MASA: It is spreading…danger Will Robinson danger. New York State has declared a state of emergency, as have other states. For those who do not know the reference (the original Lost in Space program). The US has now over 400 known cases and who know how many more still developing symptoms. If this keeps up, schools will close and a lot of work will stop. Stock up on toilet paper, toothpaste, and basic food. If CV-19 goes away quickly, then the food pantries will be happy to take your excess food off your hands. Of course, DDT is maintaining that all is rosy and there is nothing to worry about. It’s all job market statistics from last month and lies about US preparedness or blaming Obama. Even the tests he is promising everyone do not exist. It is as usual. Empty shirt. Italy and other countries in Europe are also in bad shape. So far Africa has only a little bit of infection. If it gets out of hand in Africa, chaos will descend. Funny, socially out of touch Joe Biden referred to Bernie Bros as Bernie brothers. C’mon Joe, wake up and smell the current culture. Nice guys do not have to live under a rock. Greece is having a Turkey-Syrian-migrant problem at its borders with Erdogan trying to blackmail the EU into backing him in Syria. This is one time I agree with Erdogan, the EU and US should step up support and they should do it without forcing Erdogan to resort to blackmail. Our super “smart” DDT pulling out of Syria has created a real mess and killed a lot of innocent people. But, what does he care, it’s all abut DDT and nothing else. In November, he has got to go!  TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

6 March: MASA: The CV-19 continues to spread in the US and around the world. In the US, it is just fear and not much in the way of real facts about getting infected. For almost all of us, life goes on as usual. DDT finally admitted that the administration is woefully short on supplies to combat the virus. They are still over optimistic about the epidemic. Yes, yes, DDT is now suing CNN for stories about the 2016 election. A total waste of time, but it gets a news headline. I cannot wait until he is out of office so he can be prosecuted and sued. DDT is acting insane and very creepy with respect to people around him. I pity the poor people who work for him day after day. Mulvaney out and Meadows in (as chief of staff). Who is Mark Meadows? A super sycophant? I thought Mulvaney has that down pat. “Meadows, a House Republican from North Carolina, announced in December that he would not seek re-election at the end of his term.” DDT is exceeding himself in offering misleading information about CV-19 and throwing insults at the US CDC during their press conference. He attacked democrats and praised his own intelligence, while lashing out at the news media (CNN), spread false information on CV-19, disagreed with Pence who complimented the Washington State Governor calling Inslee a snake for telling the truth about the number of infected citizens. DDT is actively dangerous as President and needs to be removed by the election in November. TBO. Hope for no major war.

5 March: MASA: How can a stupid man show himself to be purposely extra dumb. On a self-proclaimed hunch DDT is calling the WHO estimate of CV-19 death rate false. His ability to know anything is right up there with his false hair and complexion and fat butt and gut. Hey Ho, Lizzie is out at last. I hope she has a plan for disappearing because I have a plan never to hear the whiny voice again saying, “Yes, I have a plan for that”. It’s too bad, because she is intelligent and well educated, and could have been a potential leader if she hadn’t tried ape Bernie. It’s bad enough that Bernie is copying Bernie of years ago showing no growth in judgement. It’s Johnny one-note telling me that everyone is evil if they are successful, except, of course, the millionaire Bernie. I’m so glad that Biden’s campaign is showing real strength and is now backed by resources from Bloomberg. I’d rather have sleepy Joe, than creepy Don. A judge has ordered a review of Barr’s falsification of the Mueller report summary to Congress and the public along with his “necessary” redactions. This is a good thing that a judge read the full report to see how misleading Barr has been. The entire DDT administration is corrupt. Let’s hope that Joe wipes the White House clean of DDT in November. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

4 March: MASA: It appears that Senators of any stripe can be fools. Chuck Schumer made non-physical threatening comments directed against conservative Supreme Court Justices that they would regret it if they voted against the availability of abortions in Louisiana. I think the US would regret it if this lawsuit blocking the operation of clinics goes through, the Republicans might regret the result at the polls, but no one should personally be threatened. Chuck S. walked it back later. Roberts scolded Schumer, as he should. Tempest in a teapot. It looks like the death rate from CV-19 is higher than originally thought, over 3%. CV-19 is spreading, but the economic impact has not yet been felt, and the stock market rebounded today on news of Biden’s victories plus the government voting for 8.3 billion to combat the disease. Hard to say what is going to happen with CV-2 or the Democratic primaries. We do know the name calling by DDT will swing into high gear. TBO. Hope for no major war.

3 March: MASA: Yes! Joe B won in Virginia with a commanding lead. Now we just need more states to follow Virginia’s lead. One of the newspapers pointed out that Joe has the backing of the party, but Sanders has the most “vicious voters”. The big thing Joe B needs is more money to continue the fight. This is where the small donors and mega-donors can really help. Nice, DDT is suing the Washington and the New York Times for editorial columns that were basically telling the truth about Russian interference in the 2016 campaign. DDT is really mad now that the drug manufacturers have told him that a vaccine is over a year away from being available. He wants it NOW. Iran is in trouble with CV-19 as most of their country is now showing infection. The news is sparse tonight and will be until Super Tuesday is over and most of the votes are counted.  DDT is of course making his usual noises, but this is not new.

2 March: MASA: Finally, a little sanity has come to pass in the Democrat ranks. Both Pete B and Amy K are dropping out and going to endorse Biden. Hopefully, it is not too late to put a stop to the Bernie nonsense. Bernie is just the flip side of DDT with his gang of fanatic deluded followers. There is a big difference, to be fair, Bernie is not a liar and crook, and is not out to undermine of system of government. It’s just our economy he wants to undermine in the guise of doing good for the working people. He’s wrong, but he sincerely believes the crap he’s dishing out. He’s 1000% better than crooked DDT. DDT is still praying that the CV-19 problem will just evaporate so that he can become king. Tomorrow is Super Tuesday (ST) and one can hope that the voters in Democrat primaries are sensible and vote for Biden. Today the market was up like a rocket, tomorrow the futures are pointing down. Madness reigns. DDT, the ignorant fool that he is, is meeting with Pharma execs to exhort them to speed up the vaccine development. Dummy, it does not work that way. Tomorrow is another CV-19 day and another day of ST primaries. Hope for the best. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

1 March 2020: MASA: OMG Pence is stupider than I thought. He just stated that DDT Jr is justified in saying that Democrats hope that CV-19 kills millions in order to derail DDT’s chances of re-election. What democrats, and any civilized persons, hope is that the two jackasses (DDT and DMP) can come up with a national plan that mitigates the number of deaths and the transmission of the disease without destroying the economy. Just learned that Pete B has dropped out of the campaign. Too bad, I like Pete, and now like him even more. He shows good judgement. Hopefully, he will run at the next opportunity. DoD and other agencies now expect CV-19 will become a pandemic. Italy has shown a huge jump in CV-19 with 32 dead, and it appears that it has been in the US for several weeks. Apparently China knew of the CV-19 disease since December, but just covered it up. Great move after Chinese experiences with SARS. Nothing like a dictatorship for being transparent in an emergency. DDT also would like to cover up the incidence of CV-19 in the US and its effect on the economy. DDT's attitude, if it's good for me, who cares about anyone else? Oh Good. DDT is asking Steyer and Bloomberg not to donate to the Democratic candidate. Good luck with that DDT. DDT’s Afghan solution appears on the edge of breakdown. The Afghan government is refusing the 5000-man prisoner swap with the Taliban. It’s too bad. Everyone would like to see the end to war and mayhem. DDT appears to be looking for a repeat of his “success” in Syria. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

29 February: MASA: Biden wins one (S. Carolina), but can he win more? I am not in favor of Bernie as the Democratic candidate against DDT. If he wins both the primary and the general election, so be it. Anything is better than DDT. Bolton is upset at the agreement between the Taliban and US forces, which involves the partial withdrawal of US troops. There is risk in trying an agreement between the US and the Taliban, but so is endless fighting. It will be endless if Pakistan surreptitiously supports the Taliban and the US does nothing about the support. From the Guardian, “Stop Donald Trump now, Democrats warned at his impeachment trial, or will he take on the aspect of a king. The prophecy appears to have been borne out, as the US president hands out jobs to loyalists, purges perceived enemies, pardons convicted criminals and swaggers as if with a divine right.” This at the conservative CPAC meeting that just took place. He is a menace to America. The CV-19 is spreading in Korea with over 800 cases now. It’s just a matter of time for its spread here. Trouble on another front, Syria. The Turks and Russians are getting into a conflict as are the Turks and the Syrian government. How this ends is anyone’s guess. Will Putin back down. Doubtful. Putin claims that he knew nothing about the location of Turkish troops before he bombed them, which is pure bunk. The fed is promising action, so stocks will improve on Monday after historic losses. Will it last? Probably not. Of course, DDT wants the Fed to mask the problem to reinforce his kingship. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

28 February: MASA: The arrogance of the DDT administration. Mulvaney is claiming that the media and democrats are interested in CV-19 because they want to defeat the bum this November. No Nicky baby. We are much more interested in what CV-19 will do to the country and not as much on what it will do to DDT. But if DDT goes down, and after the fact you think it was because of inept handling of the crises, then OK. Hey…US and Taliban signa deal to end the Afghan war. If it holds, then good. Right now all political eyes are on South Carolina’s primary tomorrow. It’s make or break for Joe. Then comes Super Tuesday with over 400 California delegates in play and with Bernie leading in the polls. If Joe deos not do well tomorrow, it’s over Joe. Bloomberg says he’s in it until the bitter end syphoning off votes from other moderate candidates and making it easier for Bernie to win. Meanwhile CV-2 is spreading in the US, Utah and Oregon, and of course California. Perhaps DDT will suspend the elections as in the TV movie “House of Cards”. At least we will not get Melania as President. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

27 February: MASA: It’s been 24 hours since DDT appointed Pence to battle the CoronaVirus and he still has not moved, nor has the sheepish smile left his face. I’m told that he really is alive and praying. Problem solved. Whoops, I got it wrong. DDT has declared the CV a Democrat plot to destroy his presidency by forcing the stock market to go down by telling the truth. A whistleblower has revealed that the health workers who received the US citizens from Wuhan were not trained and lacked the proper protective gear. What else would you expect from the super smart administration. Meanwhile, Japan is closing schools, flights are being suspended, meeting cancelled, S Korea is going crazy with fear, and the US just putters on as if nothing is happening. In the news today is information that the Turks are fighting the Syrians over airstrikes that killed more than 34 Turkish soldiers and in turn the Turks are hitting back at Russia. Nice play DDT pulling US troops out. Next we will have an all-out war in the Middle East. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

26 February: MASA: At last Pence has something to do instead of just standing in the back of phot ops looking like a zombie. DDT is underfunding the anti CoronaVirus CV effort and has put the perfect person in charge. Pence will just stand there praying at very low hourly rates. It should all turn out well with Pence in charge and DDT has plausible deniability. After all, what can a zombie do wrong? Wait. No. Not possible. Someone killed five people over Coors Beer. Actually, it was over a personal dispute.  Another case why guns need to be controlled. They used a gun not beer bottles to kill 5 pepole. This falls under the purview and responsibility of the NRA. While beer usually does not kill people and guns by themselves do not kill people, bullets do kill people. Ban bad beer and ban bullets. Banning both guns and bullets would be ideal, ot at least hjaving strict licensing policy for guns. Without bullets. an assault rifle makes a lousy club. Sometimes I wonder how rich people get rich. Here’s a major Democrat donor suggesting the Pelosi and Schumer get together in a smoke-free room and pick a candidate to replace Bernie and beat DDT. Good one. Bernie has been claiming that Medicare studies all point to saving money with Medicare for all, but the problem is that the studies say no such thing. The final insult to top all insults. The CDC has found that men with beards, and especially stubble, are more prone to catch the CV. Shave to save. This plague will be hard to stop, but we can at least contain DDT. Vote him out in November. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

25 February: MASA: Sane again, I fear not, after the shouting match purported to be a debate. Lots of hand waving and talking over each other like a schoolyard brawl. Nothing much of substance was said, but with much accusing each other, and, especially Bernie, of all kinds of misdeeds and mistakes. Bloomberg got it on the nose as well with out much pushback. At least Biden came off strongly, especially on gun control. He also got the children to shut up for a few minutes. Bloomberg is toast politically. I just remains to figure out on which side to spread the jam. The Coronavirus is spreading panic among the middle class as their money evaporates in front of their eyes. DDT as usual sticks his gut into the mix trying to get RBG and Sotomayor to recuse themselves from anything that involves his tender personhood. He’s playing king again. Time to get rid of the bugger. Now we have to wait for S. Carolina and then Super Tuesday to see pretty much who the candidate will be. If it is Sanders, it still will be better than having a crooked ignorant liar in the white House. TBO. Hope for no major war.

24 February: MASA: The end of the world is nigh. The first of the 4 horsemen, pestilence, has struck. We must fight back with everything the US can bring to bear. Every able minded person must join in the effort to defeat the pest, even if total isolation is needed. Get rid of DDT and then focus on the Coronavirus. Oil and stocks slid badly today as the virus spreads to Europe and the Middle East (Iran so far). It looks like a fringe religious group in Korea is responsible for the spread of the disease. OMG, B. Sanders has unveiled a 1.5 trillion-dollar universal childcare program for everyone (ages 1 to 4). All these many trillion-dollar programs are going to be paid for by the rich. Stupid thought. Bad arithmetic. Right now Biden holds a small edge over Bernie in S. Carolina. Let’s hope it holds. The big news is yet to ocme as we hold our collective breaths for the outcome for S. Carolina and super Tuesday. No matter how it comes out, the goal is to get rid of DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

23 February: MASA: The clarity of caucus voting has been demonstrated again in Nevada. A screwed up system if I ever heard of one. Berniw won fair and square, but the mechanics of the system are crazy. Ordinary primary voting, please. Hopefully, Super Tuesday will have more clarity. Young people are participating and do not know what they are asking for in going for Bernie and Socialism. Robert O’Brian, a national security advisor to DDT, claims that he has seen no evidence of Russia helping DDT. Eye’s closed? But, apparently is able to see reports that Russia is helping Bernie. The coronavirus looks like it is getting a strong foothold in Europe, South Korea, and Iran. Italy has canceled a traditional Venice carnival due to the coronavirus. Bernie is appealing to young voters by promising them cost-free everything along with loan forgiveness for college. Is he buying votes? Absolutely, but with yours and my money in the form of future high taxes. Some new taxes are warranted after the fool-in-chief cut tax receipts and ran up the national debt at the rate3 of 1 trillion per year. I shudder to think of our economy after BS gets into office. At least it will not be a crook in office. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

22 February: MASA: Bernie has won in Arizona. ON step towards another 4 years of DDT and the destruction of the Democratic Party. Will I vote for Bernie in the general election? Yes. But I will hold my nose while voting. This democratic socialist idea is not democratic, but certainly is socialist. You will like it if you want government in you bed, so to speak. Will it be better than the demagogue DDT, yes! That’s the extent of my high praise for Bernie or Lizzie. The Coronavirus is on the loose. Watch your health and investments. OK…There is hope. Clint Eastwood, that closet liberal, has come out of the closet for Bloomberg. Way to go Clint. Perhaps you can give Mike some speaking lessons. That’s what he needs the most, not money or praise. Enough for tonight, On to South Carolina and Super Tuesday. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

21 February: MASA: If you thought things were bad before, think again. Bernie is running amuck and the egotists running against him are too stuck on themselves to coalesce on a more moderate candidate. As if Bernie is not bad enough, the Coronavirus is about to make a breakout from Asia to the rest of the world. Why? Because S. Korea is losing control of the cases it has and does not have the capability to contain or isolate the sick. Short of a ban on travel to the US, it will be here soon. Buy your masks now while there is still a supply. I’m being alarmist, and probably for no real reason. Bernie is denouncing Russia’s real or threatened aid to his campaign. But the damage is already done by simply instilling fear and uncertainty, which is Putin’s goal even if Russia does not actually do anything overt. DDT went after the Korean movie Parasite because it took a US award. DDT was almost incoherent, but you could still get the resentment that a foreign film too best picture, and then added we are the greatest country and have the greatest military in a non-sequitur. NASA images show a huge amount of melting from the Antarctic heat wave (70F). Perhaps I will have waterfront property someday, since I am only 300 feet above current sea level. Keep on denying global warming, dumbo. Good, Mike B is releasing the woman from his company from a non-disclosure agreement. He should have done that long ago. TBO. Hope for no major war.

20 February: MASA: C’mon Mike B. It was a poor performance during the debate. Tweeting a modified video of the debate is not going to add to your reputation. We have one liar running for president, we do not need another. You are right on one thing; we have two candidates who could destroy the Democratic party. First and foremost is the “my way or the highway” Bernie S followed closely by Lizzie W. The coronavirus is breaking out on a new front, Korea. So far it is about 200 cases and still manageable. If it goes further, watch out for both your personal health and the US economy. We are back at it again. Russia has now been documented to be interfering in the 2020 election based on a briefing given to the representatives in the House. The upshot is that DDT is furious that such a briefing was given and made public. As usual, DDT is perfectly willing to take foreign interference, if it is in his favor, all the while denying that the interference exists. We have got to get rid of this unprincipled crook. Think tax fraud, cheating people he employed, Deutsche Bank fraud, and a total disregard for US institutions and our form of government. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

19 February: MASA: Night of the sharp knives or a circular firing squad. Bloomberg took it on the chin about his past behavior with respect to stop and frisk and his taunts about women who worked for him. It’s possible it is all over for Bloomberg, but we will not know until Super Tuesday when he is on the ballot. Bernie was, well Bernie, all the way. Nothing new there. Just the usual hand waving a finger pointing at the evils of capitalism. Bloomberg had it right there. He likened Bernie’s ideas to being close to communism. That’s how a lot of voters will perceive it especially when DDT goes after him. He’s an almost guaranteed loser. Pete B. in my opinion came off well with a measured performance sticking with substance when Bernie would let him speak without interrupting. As a performance animal, Lizzie was her most confrontational self, saying little of merit, but spraying knives everywhere. Given her background with wall street, her railing against wall street comes off hollow. All in all, she’s a slightly watered-down version of Bernie. As usual, DDT has done it again. He has named a temporary (read semi-permanent) top intelligence chief, Grenell, to head up all the agencies. By making an interim appointment DDT avoids Senate confirmation. Pretty lousy way of running the adminsitration to get losers in positions of power. Grenell has zero experience running any organization and zero experience in intelligence. Basically, hi sonly qualification is extreme loyalty to DDT even though incompetent. On the pardon front, Stone is set to be sentenced. I’ll be he gets a pardon soon that DDT thinks will be buried in the noise of his previous pardons of really bad criminals. Got to get rid of DDT in 2020. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

18 February: MASA: The DDT pardons are really irritating, particularly Rod Blagojevich (Governor of Illinois) and outright crook and perverter of our political system (selling a senate seat to the highest bidder). The whole list is questionable, Rod B is the smelliest. More people are arriving in the US for quarantine that are infected with the coronavirus. Let’s hope it stays contained. The consequences of a major outbreak in the US are frightening for the number of deaths and in an economic sense. It looks like the CIA knew about all the atrocities committed in South America under the dictatorships and did nothing about it. The question is could they have done anything useful. From a moral perspective you would think the answer is clear, but the very effort that the CIA could have made would have immediately cut them off from information relevant to national security. And, it is not clear at all that making the information public would have led to an improvement. Meanwhile the effects of separating children from parents is still playing out in the US. One case in the post is particularly upsetting with a child separated from her mother, but doing well here in the US, while the mother languishes in danger back in Guatemala. On a good not, Jeff Bezos is giving 10 billion to fund scientists in the fight to limit climate change. More is needed, but this is an excellent boost.

17 February: MASA: Some Virginia Democrats joined with Republicans and voted down the assault rifle ban. A bit of a surprise. But, the national association of federal judges has called an emergency meeting Tuesday to address growing concerns about the intervention of Justice Department officials and President Donald Trump. Also, a bit of a surprise. Crazy world we are living in. Good for you Pete B. Pete Buttigieg says “if President Trump (aka DDT) refuses to leave the White House after losing his reelection bid in November, he could stay and “do chores.” That’s sad and funny at the same time. It would be funny if the Secret Service has to show DDT the door. Now Pelosi is in the Huawei controversy, saying, “working with China’s Huawei is like choosing autocracy over democracy”. No question, Huawei is a risk not worth taking. Bezos is pledging 10 billion dollars to fight climate change and feels it is a good deal for him since he currently lives on this planet. How’s that for sheer self-interest? Obama is in a dispute with DDT over who caused the economy to be so good. Obama says it was his actions that laid the groundwork for the current economic expansion and well-being. He did not actually use those words, but reading between the lines, it is exactly what he meant. Meanwhile DDT is trying to denigrate Obama’s input and take full credit. What a jerk! TBO.

16 February: MASA: Resign Barr, that’s the cry today as 1100 former prosecutors call for Barr to step down for interfering in an ongoing sentencing case for Stone. Also, Senators are calling for his resignation. I doubt that anything will come of it, but you never know. England got hit with an amazing storm today. At least Brexit will have a newly washed slate. Chinese scientists purport to have identified the source of the coronavirus, a laboratory near a food market was studying bats contaminated with similar viruses. Not smart. Now they have moved the lab and are requiring better containment. Too little, too late. Along with this news, flu is on the rise and will get worse as a second wave of flu is starting. Remember more people die from flu than the coronavirus. The Dems are getting ready for internal fights, especially against Bloomberg. Read an article today that suggest his imperial tendencies. Not sure I believe the editorial comments. Also pointed out was his extensive philanthropic activity for minority rights, woman’s rights, gun control, and many progressive causes. A man of his wealth can certainly afford to be generous to the extreme, but is not obligated to give so freely. The bottom line in all this is 1) defeat DDT and 2) elect someone that can get things done, and avoid Bernie if at all possible. Dems have South Carolina and Nevada coming up, which should tell if Biden survives. Then comes Super Tuesday, which will tell us if Bloomberg is viable.  The usual applies, I will vote for a turkey sandwich over DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war.

15 February: MASA: the spreading coronavirus and DDT are making people sick. The only difference is that the corona virus makes anyone sick and DDT only those people who are able to think beyond there own perceived personal interest. Roger Stone asks for new trial based on juror bias. Given what I know about the jury foreperson, he’s got a point. That person answered all the questions truthfully during jury selection, but both sides let her on the jury. A good thing is happening. Mike Bloomberg is getting black support in spite of his very clumsy handling of racial situations when he was mayor in NYC. The good thing is he has apologized and, I think, sincerely means the apology. It looks like Bloomberg will not be n the stage for the South Carolina debate, since he does not meet the criteria, but may be there for the Nevada debate. It looks like Biden is fading fast and may have to drop out. He just does not appear to have the energy or sharpness any more. Too bad, I like Joe Biden, but Bloomberg makes a really dood replacement. The main thing is to get rid of DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy yes-men Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 February: MASA: DDT has given us a Valentines Day gift essentially confessing to everything about the Ukraine affair in a what do I care moment now that impeachment is over. We now know that indeed there was a witch (DDT) in the White House so that a witch hunt was exactly the right thing to do. The man is incredibly arrogant, even worse the OJ Simpson. Simpson wrote a confession book “If I Did It” that at least had the word If in the title. Not DDT. For him it has been Yeah I did it, and sent Rudy G to Ukraine, just as they said, and what are you going to do about it. Got to get rid this wart on our system. DDT is now saying he has the right to interfere in criminal cases as would any self-respecting King. After the Ukraine fiasco, DDT may stop people from listening to his conversations with heads of states. Great. Now no one will know about agreements reached or not reached. Congress, curb this monster. Headline from VOX, “Trump is sending armed tactical forces to arrest immigrants in sanctuary cities”. Nice. Next it will be the army to form a police state. First, it’s immigrants, then it is YOU. Further the article states, “As first reported by the New York Times, 100 US Customs and Border Protection officers, including those from the SWAT-like Border Patrol Tactical Unit, will be deployed from February through May across nine sanctuary cities: Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Boston, New Orleans, and Newark, NJ.” GOP senators asked if DDT had learned a lesson from impeachment. The answer is clearly yes. The lesson: I can do whatever I please and you can go pound sand. DDT sent a report to the House Foreign Affairs committee on the Soleimani killing which the chairman called “absurd”. More stupid stuff. Even with the trillion-dollar deficits, DDT is planning more tax cuts right before the election. Just what the country needs, more debt. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

13 February: MASA: AG Barr has brayed his independence from the bird-brain tweeter in chief. Hooray for Barr. I still think that Barr is the worst AG we have had under any presidency in my memory. His ideas are an anathema to democracy and our traditional form of government. DDT has picked a real winner to be on the Fed board, Judy Shelton, a believer in the gold standard for managing currency (it was abandoned because of the disaster in the 1930’s) and she wants more coordination between the Fed and the White house (translation, she want to politicize the Fed). Even the spineless GOP senators are worrying about this outlier. Bad choice DDT. Under what rock did you find this one? Way to go Senate for approving a limit on DDT’s war making powers. Of course DDT will veto the limit and there will not be a 2/3 majority to override the veto. The coronavirus is stil spreading in china and now starting to seriously affect the world economy and that of the US. Bad news, unless it helps us get rid of another disease, DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

12 February: MASA: DDT catching flack for interfering in the Roger Stone sentencing, but denies his tweet and statements represent interfering. He’s just talking, not interfering, meanwhile praising Barr for not considering the recommended sentences by prosecutors, who have now quit. Of course, the actual sentence is up to the judge and then can be appealed. The judge did reject a secret request for a new trial. Good for the judge. Amy K is getting a lot of praise for her dismal 3rd place performance in New Hampshire. It’s only good relative to previous thoroughly miserable performances. On to S. Carolina to see who wins there. Sadly, I must admit it looks like Biden is out of the race (again). Pete B. is proposing to let private insurance and Medicare compete for your insurance dollars. To me this is a good transition policy, but to some it is anti-union, to others Bernie S’s plan, "Medicare for All RIGHT NOW", is union damaging. Confusion reigns. Personally, I like the Medicare, if you want it plan. DDT was asked about Bernie S. and Mike B. and said that he would rather face Mike than Bernie because of Bernie’s rabid supporters. Somehow the rest of the world is disappearing except for domestic politics, the coronavirus, and the rude DDT tweets. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

11 February: MASA: Biden is anticipating a loss in New Hampshire and is now heading for South Carolina where he is expected to do well. I am not sure who advised him to play low key, but that strategy has only made him look tired. Breathe fire Biden. For the rest of the Dem candidates, it appears that the knives are out as desperation sets in while jockeying for first. Pete B has a good chance. Meanwhile DDT is up to his old tricks with name calling, falsehoods, and exaggerations. The Justice Department (Barr) is interfering in a sentencing hearing on behalf of DDT for Roger Stone claiming that the prosecutors are being too harsh. This is getting outrageous with DDT thinking he is a king. It has got to stop. Nice, the GOP has blocked 3 election security bills. They are just asking for interference in the 2020 election. OMG. DDT is being dismissive of Bloomberg’s golf game. That means DDT is taking Bloomberg as a threat in the election. If so, I agree with DDT. Bernie and Lizzie are my last choices, but anyone is better than DDT. Woah, Chuck Todd compered Bernie supporters to Brownshirts (Hitler supporters in Nazi Germany). That’s way over the top. They may be zealots, but they are not killing and burning to strike fear in the general population. Think Chuck Think before speaking. Andrew Yang has thrown in the towel in his run to be President. Too bad, he was one guy that really made some sense even if Yang was ahead of his time pushing for a guaranteed income. DDT is now saying that he would rather face Bloomberg than Bernie because Bernie has zealots who can yell as loud as his zombies. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidency does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

10 February: MASA: Really guys. Quit sniping at each other and work on defeating DDT. Joe B is fading into the twilight. He just does not have the fire in his belly any longer. Pete B is doing well and certainly has the energy as does old Bernie. The problem is that I do not want to live under Bernie’s idea of utopia. We’ve seen this movie before, and it is not pretty. Once the movie gets started it is pretty hard to get back to where you have a successful country. Bernie’s ideas are an experiment that has been tried before with disastrous results, namely in England before Thatcher. It’s Einstein’s definition of stupid. Keep doing the same failed thing hoping that this time it will be better. Nope, it won’t. Right now I have hope for Bloomberg. Let's see how he does oin the next debate. DDT is proposing another budget buster along with a tax cut that will reduce incoming revenue. Bad for the country, but might aid his election, and for DDT, personal gain is everything. He is also planning to slash social programs, after all having food is a luxury that poor people can do without, right? Poor guy, DDT is being upstaged by the Dems in New Hampshire, so he has to go and hold one of his lying rallies just before the primary vote. Shameless. The coronavirus is getting worse in China and may spread to Africa, which is doing almost nothing to protect itself. One airline is stull flying its regular schedule. If that virus gets loose in Africa, it’s game over for the rest of us. Barr is going after California for those cities that have declared themselves “sanctuary cities”. We’ll see how this plays out. Barr is also going to evaluate the information that Rudy G has collected against the Biden’s. The end result should be jail for Rudy. I truly fear for the country if we have a 2nd term of DDT breaking laws and normal human ethics. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

9 February: MASA: Joe Biden is finally coming out of his snooze. He at least has the courage to say that if Bernie S wins the nomination, he will work like hell for him in th general election, but he further says that the socialist bent of Bernie is too much for him to win middle America with that label. Biden also commented on Pete B that he is too distant from the black vote to prevail in the general election. He paints himself as the only candidate with broad enough support. Of course, Biden has his own liability with his son Hunter and Ukraine and the fact that he speaks too softly and too slowly to stand up to DDT. Go Pete, beat Bernie and then fade on the national scene. I’m rooting for Bloomberg. DDT has a new budget that increases military spending and seriously cuts domestic programs in light of a new proposed tax cut. I doubt the Pelosi in the House will let him get away with such garbage. On the Biden front, our idiot President is planning more Biden investigations. Hopefully it will sink DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

8 February: MASA: Democratic debate showed acrimony and personal attacks on each other. Pete B. came out strong in a state where Bernie S. is almost guaranteed to win. Predictions are for Bernie to win, Pete second and then there is the rest. The result almost guarantees that Bloomberg will be strong factor in the rest of the campaign season, especially since he will part of the next debate. Bernis lost ground on how he will pay for all the freebies he is offering. Basically, he has no credible answer. Biden came off mostly weak, except when he was challenging Bernie on his Medicare for all program and its costs. Lizzie was barely there. All the while in the background (if that’s possible) DDT was fulminating and firing people who dared to testify in the House impeachment investigation. The two Vindemans are gone from there jobs on the National Security Council, escorted unceremoniously out of the White House. They were prepared for this and had all the computer equipment ready to return. Both will still work for the military in the Pentagon. The ambassador to the EU, Sondland, has been recalled and fired even though he gave 1 million to the DDT 2016 election effort. I guess buying an ambassadorship does not pay with DDT. These guys did their legal duty testifying under subpoena and are now part of DDT’s revenge. DDT goes beyond what even Nixon dared to do. The big question is whether he will get away with all the nasty undermining behavior in the 2020 elections. Other interesting things going on that are better than DDT or Pete B. It looks like space-based internet is about to take off (Musk, SpaceX, Tesla) delivering internet at very high speeds and much lower cost. This will upset the business models of Verizon and Comcast quite a bit to the benefit of consumers all over the world. Mike Bloomberg met with governors to map out his political plans ahead of the debates. So far he has spent more than $300 million on campaign advertisements that may tip the balance from here forward. As a possible President, he is competent, honest, experienced, and has a balanced approach to social issues. He also is sharp-tongued enough to easily take on DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

7 February: MASA: The Dems are at it again, attacking each other as if they are the only game in town. Pete B and Bernie S. are the ones taking the abuse. On the DDT front, his majesty (not) is firing people right and left who dared to tell the truth to the House committees. Sad that we have such a vindictive bumbling idiot in charge. Get rid of this jerk is 2020. I always forget the Steyer is still in the hunt, this time with negative ads, and not about DDT, which would have been laudable. The coronavirus is doing well and showing no signs of abating. It’s pretty clear that China bungled the disease control when it was a small problem thanks to its censorship policies, and now the rest of the world is left holding the bag. Good show China. WOW, the news says the Antarctic peninsula is warmer than Dallas. Global warming anyone? Ice sheets are melting at an accelerated rate and oceans are rising. Now is the time to buy future ocean front property currently located about 100 feet above sea level. Of course, DDT still denies that climate change is occurring as long as he has his MAGIC marker. Get rid of overt idiocy in government. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

6 February: MASA: Just read an article on how DDT is going to take revenge on the people who testified in front of the House committee chaired by Schiff. He’s especially going after Vindeman and Schiff. Of course Nancy Pelosi is on his S list along with Mitt Romney. DFDT is planning to make these things a mainstay of his campaign. Just what we need, an angry idiot as President. After Biden’s poor showing in Iowa, it leaves me in a quandary. Lizzie and Bernie are way off the scale for me. I will vote for them in a general election against DDT, buit not in a primary. This leaves Pete and Bloomberg. I like Pete, if only he had more experience and more exposure to national problems. Of the two, I think that Bloomberg, who is totally immune to DDT’s vile mouth and can give a good lashing back. Remember Bloomberg knows DDT weel from his time as mayor of New York City. Plus, I like Bloomberg and his sensible policies, part liberal and part pragmatic in the sense of doing what can actually get done and work. He’s the only one of the bunch that has experience running a big political organization. It looks like Pete B won the Iowa vote by the narrowest margin over Bernie S, basically a tie. Good for Pete beating a well-established candidate like Bernie. Looks like Fox news internally has goine after several people for spreading disinformation, including Rudy Giuliana. Glad to see Fox has soime internal honesty even if its commentators lie through their teeth. Too bad, Andrew Yag’s campaign is disintegrating, he’s just fired dozens of his staff after Iowa. Former Navy Secretary under DDT, Richard Spencer has cine out in favor of Bloomberg. Good choice. Looks like the Kush’s peace plan is working as expected. Mideast violence is on the rise, Palestinians have died in violent uprisings, and there has been military activity in Syria by Israel. This administration is a national disaster. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

5 February: MASA: America Is not sane, that is clear with DDT’s approval ratings hovering at about 49%. It’s shocking how a compulsive self-promoter and liar can be thought of as having done a good job as President. These characteristics plus his clearly illegal attempt to use his office to attempt to have a foreign government influence the 2020 elections on bogus corruption charges against a possible candidate. Hopefully, the electorate in 2020 will remove him from office where the Republican Senate was too spineless with fear to do their constitutional duty. Only Mitt Romney had a little bit of spine to do the bare minimum and vote for DDT’s removal. Utah seems to be rallying behind Romney. Good for them. It appears that DDT supporters were partly responsible for the delay in reporting Iowa’s caucus vote by flooding the hotline that was the backup for the defective phone app. The hotline number became public when it was posted online and DDT’s followers cold not resist. Oh well. The coronavirus toll has now exceeded 500 deaths, mostly in China. For the rest of the world, the virus is not a huge problem but certainly could become one. In the US, there are cases here and there that have been largely contained with no deaths so far. Compared to flu deaths, the coronavirus is a minor problem. However, there is another sinister side effect to the virus outbreak, a form of racism against Asian people. China is cutting tariffs on many US goods worth about $75 billion in response to cuts made by DDT as part of the initial negotiated deal. DDT’s awarding the Medal of Freedom to Rush Limbaugh during the State of the Union was shameless pandering to a purveyor of lies and false rumors throughout his career. Was Limbaugh popular with the great unthinking masses of people, yes. If you did not mind being lied to constantly, he was funny. Medal of Freedom for a career of lying, shameless pandering on the part of DDT.  Of course, DDT recognized a kindred spirit, a fellow liar and self-promoter that frequently supported DDT’s own ignorant distorted views. Pelosi ripped up her copy of DDT’s speech on TV right behind DDT, which later in the evening infuriated him. Good! India got some good news recently. It no longer has to worry about China, since DDT declared that it doesn’t have a common border with China. Perhaps DDT should stick to weather forecasting. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

4 February 2019: MAIA: Yeah, I am listening to the insanity that is the State of the Union message from DDT. It’s not started yet, but you can always count on DDT to claim credit for everything real or imagined if it is of help to him personally. In Iowa right now Pete and Bernie are almost tied for the lead with Biden running 4th. The Republicans are shouting “Four More years”. An abomination. Yep, DDT is taking credit for everything from a sterling foreign policy to an exuberant economy, even though largely BS. Listening to DDT, he must be living in a different country than I. Everything is so rosy and perfect with only a few more small things to do. He just injected the campaign calling people socialist anyone proposing an option for public medical care. Listening to DDT tonight, he’s promising everything to everyone. As usual, he’s lying through his teeth. Old heel spurs just welcomed home a soldier. Enough on the turkey. TBO. Hope for no major war.

3 February: MASA: DDT is plotting revenge on Bolton and other impeachment opponents. This should be ugly but interesting. Iowa is finally winding down and going away. Such an enormous effort to catch a mouse. Next is New Hampshire, a not-so major state to salivate over. Finally will come “Super Tuesday” where we will find out the likely nominee. If it’s Bernie, so be it. Be it Bernie or a turkey sandwich, I’ll vote for either one against DDT. The GOP senators are braying the Oh Yes, we know what DDT did was bad, but not bad enough. This sets a precedent for DDT and anyone that succeeds him that the President is almost a King. This is very sad, considering that our system of government was set up to prevent just such an event. Why DDT holds such power over the GOP, I do not fathom. Just gutless wonders. I certainly hope they lose the Senate in 2020 and the Presidency. Not seeng McConell will be one obvious and joyful consequence. Multiple articles on people who were shot today. We definitely need fewer guns so easily available. Rush Limbaugh is likely dying. I cannot stand the man politically or as a social commentator, but as a fellow human being, I do feel sorry for him. The Kush has a peace plan that is causing strife, so far just rhetorical, but inevitably, if forced on Palestinians, it will turn hot. We have got to get rid of those nasty amateurs now occupying the White House.TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

2 February: MASA and DDT-free: DDT addressed America via the Super Bowl. He put on a display of vindictive pettiness and lies that are his trademark. Why the US would vote for him again is a mystery. This is a president that should go down in ignominy for his brazen opposition to the truth. I remember his first big lie as President when he claimed that the sun came out as he was giving his inaugural speech. The reality is that it was raining and the weather stayed constant on a sparse crowd. Of course that was just a preview of his hindcast of the hurricane warning with his not-so magic marker. Bloomberg has it right, “The president is lying. He is a pathological liar who lies about everything: his fake hair, his obesity, and his spray-on tan.” Plus his know it all mentality extends to light bulbs and flush toilets, all of which he gets wrong. This man has really lived under a rock his entire adult life. I just read an article that humans are still evolving, but mostly not in a good way. Of course, we have examples of de-evolution in certain individuals especially one with orange skin tone. Yeah, that one. WOW, in Montana a state GOP lawmaker said,” the U.S. Constitution calls for people who identify as socialists to be jailed or shot.” Just proves there are idiots everywhere. Warren is offering goodies if you vote for her. Now it’s free childcare. Keep it up Bernie and Lizzie. Why not free everything, food, housing, cars, TV, the list is endless with which you can buy votes. Personally, I would like a new President for free. Can you deliver that? OMG! There is a GOP senator says Joe Biden could be impeached over Ukraine. The guy is confused. Last I looked Biden is not President or Vice-President. I did not know you could impeach an ordinary citizen. Watch out DDT. Iran is vowing revenge on the US in secret form. Finally, the most wonderful ever Middle east peace plan by Kush is on the rocks, rejected by the Arab league. Big surprise (NOT). TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

1 February 2020: MASA: In the polls, far more people favor impeachment of DDT than not. Of course the will of the people means nothing in this situation. The polls are crazy, fir Bernie is surging and is ahead, the Biden is wining. Come on Iowa, get you doggone caucus over with and let the nation move onto real voting, not who has the best cookies. The Coronavirus is moving into the US in a big way. Now Massachusetts has 8 confirmed cases with more coming since there is a 2-week incubation period. It won’t be long until travel stops in the US as well as China. According to the Late Night Host Bill Maher, “Only Bernie has his army of diehard supporters with enough blind devotion to combat DDT” What if he is right? Sad. Bernie has some characteristics that makes him just a little bit like DDT. With Bernie, it is his way or the highway. Not good in a president. DDT has expanded his travel ban to Nigerians. It’s more of the same now that DDT is freed from impeachment. Make sure, people, that DDT goes down the drain in November. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

31 January: MASA: I skipped last night because the GOP was acting like the phonies that really are. Today showed the truth in all its ugliness. A cover-up of facts and a total lack of witnesses. Bolton’s book will come out and DDT will try to vilify it. More recordings and pictures will surface much to the embarrassment of the GOP and perhaps even DDT. Apparently, the final vote will not be until Wednesday of next week allowing for more posturing and lies. It’s OK, the Senate acquittal will not be an exoneration, just an ugly cover-up and a step towards unfettered power in a President-King. DDT has to lose in 2020 and head to a bunch of court cases in NY that may land him in jail. The US economy is slowing steadily and may turn badly before the election. The coronavirus is not helping. Just look at the stock market today. And on the other side of the pond, Brexit is starting. It will give us something else to watch other than the crooked lying DDT. DDT is selectively banning travel from six new countries along racial lines. What else did you expect from a soon to be unfettered president DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

29 January: MASA: January and the trial of DDT draws to an end. Acquittal is a certainty with the GOP in thrall to DDT and Moscow-Mitch. For a brief moment it seemed that we had a chance to call witnesses, but cowardice triumphed, and democracy died (for now). DDT is getting close to being anointed king by a gutless Senate. This coronavirus is getting serious, Nothing, so far , as bad as the annual flu, but people are dying, at least in China. 20 people are now quarantined in California after returning from China, a reasonable precaution. The GOP really wants the shiny penny, Hunter, to distract from DDT. According to Parnas, he has recordings of DDT and his involvement with Ukraine. Nice if true. Jared the Kushner is so diplomatic. Quote the Kushner, “Palestinians have never done anything right in their sad pathetic lives”. Nice to have a peace plan, Kush, that is a total non-starter. Looks like Biden and Sanders the Loser are ahead in the polls for the dem nomination. Interesting article that I just read. It seems that we might get a tie in the Senate with Roberts then casting the tie breaking vote. That will be a hold your breath cliff-hanger. Oh yes, I almost forgot, Brexit is coming on 31 January. Will we hear the big click as the UK leaves the EU? Probably not. It will happen with a whimper and then a great rush to the exits as the UK economy flounders. Wait, I forgot, there is the special relationship between BoJo and DDT. Yes, DDT to the rescue. You can count on DDT. There’s more, but it will have to wait for tomorrow. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

28 January: MASA: It’s happened, McConnell has lost some control over his robots and it looks like we might get some witnesses and documents. Of course, DDT may try to stop them with executive privilege, but that will not play well. I certainly want Bolton to testify and other administration officials. Could get interesting after the lame defense put on by DDT’s lawyers. Apparently, the GOP is livid over the offer by Bolton to testify, but Bolton does not seem to care. People who know him say he used to verbal knife fights. The GOP is still pushing to get the Biden’s to testify as a distraction and campaign ploy. DDT has released an Israeli-Palestinian peace plan that seems to greatly favor Israel on the few details that I have been able to see. Hopefully, the Palestinians will be willing to negotiate the details and the Israelis will be honest with them. Small chance on either side. Wow a Caribbean earthquake of 7.7, but luckily there was little damage and no casualties. The coronavirus is still getting worse. A possible vaccine is in the works, but still a while away. DDT is predicting that the Democrats will suffer a crushing defeat, which I hope he enjoys from the privacy of his NY jail cell for fraud and other low crimes and miscreant behavior. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

27 January: MASA: Good luck with MASA 😊. I listened to the Republican “defense” and found it quite offensive. The Democrats prosecution was repetitive, and therefore a little boring, but at least it stuck to the known facts. The defense, on the other hand, made up “facts” as they went along. It was not a defense of DDT in places, but rather a long campaign speech attacking Biden through his son Hunter. The bombshell from Bolton’s leaked book is really the news and the essence of the prosecution. A real witness with a real observant mind. The leak must have wet DDT’s pants along with DDT doing it himself. Word is that DDT is fuming mad. Good. Wonderful, Ken Starr has figured out the impeachment has somehow become a partisan exercise. Pure genius. I never would have guessed. Thanks Ken baby. Go Bolton. Testify and blow DDT’s denials out of the water. Denying Bolton will surely make things look like a cover-up par excellence. The cover-up will be a relentless part of the election campaign with DDT spewing invectives and curses until he is voted out of office and into jail. It is not going to matter in the end whether Bolton testifies or not. The book will become public and Bolton will elaborate further. Come the election in November, DDT will likely go down. Of course, the Democrats could nominate Bernie in order to make sure that DDT wins. You can see already what is happening in DDT’s courts. The Supreme Court has just allowed DDT’s rejection of immigrants based on the possibility that they might need some public assistance before they get on their own. Shameful. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

26 January: MASA: It never stops from DDT. A veritable storm of lies and threats. One of the latest is a direct threat against Adam Schiff, “…Has not yet paid the price” for his role in the House impeachment effort. Then he went after Chuck Todd on Meet the Press for not treating Schiff with hostility. One thing really went wrong with DDT and his comments about battlefield brain injuries being equated to haveng a headache. Mr. Bone-spurs does not have a clue as he cheats his way out of everything. What a loser, even as President, what a loser. Buttigieg is really upset at this downplaying of a very real injury as are many in the military. One only hopes that this finally wakes up the military to vote against DDT before he destroys the US from within. If you believe the polls, DDT would go down to defeat today. We all have to make sure the same is true on election day in November. Then there is the very one-sided DDT Middle East Peace plan that essentially gives away territory that should be part of Palestine in a responsible peace plan (if it ever appears). DDT is overtly interfering in and Israeli election with this one-sided nonsense. Israel should reject such a plan as it is the seed for a future war. Of more concern is the rise of the coronavirus in China and various countries around the world. We are essentially defenseless now against this disease, especially if large numbers of people start showing up sick. So far, the US response has been anemic, but not zero. Really disturbing are the trade threats against Europe. Eventually, this kind of behavior will result in economic chaos. Brexit is happening now. Tune in again and see how this works out with DDT’s twin BoJo and his false hopes of a deal with the US, TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

25 January: MASA: as January fades into the past, it appears that his impeachment trial is not about filling the responsibility of the Senate, but a plea to the voters to make a choice for a democratic form of government with limits on individual power, or an autocratic government ruled by the whim of a small body of powerful people and a despot (as in China). One hopes we keep out freedom, not just for people who look like DDT, or who back DDT, but for everyone. I am very sad right now to watch this unfold with the spineless republicans so afraid of losing their jobs that they are unwilling to do their constitutional duty. I am hoping that the 2020 election will throw them out. The Democrats are doing their best to give DDT a chance at winning with the rise of Bernie in the polls. What is bad here is Bernie’s people again saying that if he doesn’t win the nomination, they are going to sit out the election. We saw this show before and it permitted DDT to win a close election. Bernie’s people are doing some very undemocratic things attacking fellow Democrats in very personal ways, sort of imitating DDT and his machinations. There behavior on Facebook is reprehensible. Bernie looks at the sky and shrugs while saying, “what can I do about my brownshirts, they do what they want.” At least Bernie is not a liar or a thief, but he is an autocrat type person. He is the wrong person to lead this country. Saying that anyone is better than DDT is a sad state of affairs. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

24 January: MASA: Tall order, I know. Took yesterday off as the Democrats talked endlessly in the Senate. The big news today is the Lev Parnas tape of DDT ordering that the Ukrain ambassador be fired. Talk about a smoking gun. This is the smoking gun and the blood on the floor. We even have a body in the form of the former ambassador. Pompeo was his usual polite self, yelling at a reporter who asked him a question about Ukraine. The stock market is crashing ostensibly on the news about the coronavirus. To me, it makes little sense unless it spreads wildly. If it does, things in the US will grind to a halt and panic will result. There is no cure and no vaccine, and a certain fraction of the people that get sick will die. Also recovery can be difficult. Hospitals will be stretched thin. Bad news. DDT is goong after Valifornia for making its own rules on medical coverage especially the requirement to provide abortion coverage and woman’s reproductive care. Can always count on DDT to “screw” women one way or the other. (Sorry for the crudity). Between DDT and the coronavirus, the US and world have a major problem with no cure for either in the next year. For one of them just apply TBO. Hope for no major war.

A long time ago, there was a movement to ban the poison pesticide DDT. That was successful. Now we need to ban a new pest Dumb Donald. So it's Ban-DDT

 

Remember: "Dumb is as Dumb does"

Ban = Impeach

TBO = Throw the Bums Out    VOTE in 2020

TRBO = Throw Republican Bums OUT

DAHT = Donald *** **** Trump

MASA = Make America Sane Again

22 January: MASA: Listened to Schiff lay out the reasons for impeachment as if he were speaking to simpletons: 1 sentence 1 idea, simple declarative sentences with no included clauses. It was entirely damning to DDT. Based on that presentation and the smoke and mirrors of the defense, DDT should be kicked out of office. Instead the kangaroos will vote to keep him. I suspect that Schiff was actually speaking to the US electorate. Hopefully, enough will listen to make a difference. The big thing that Schiff literally said, ”DDT tried to cheat his way to re-election”, and then proceeded to carefully document the ways he cheated and abused the power of his office. OMG: An election poll is showing Bernie leading DDT more than any of the other Democratic candidates. Sigh! I’ll vote for him or a turkey sandwich over DDT, but I am not going to like it. We know that DDT is listening to the impeachment trial, since his lawyers opened with a bunch of lies and then, in Davos, DDT gave a press conference and repeated the same lies. He would up falsely accusing Schiff of falsifying his conversation with Ukrainian president Zelenski and claiming that Schiff apologized. No such thing happened. Oh nice, DDT is about to put limitations on travel VISA’s for pregnant women unless they are from Norway. What a racist pig. DDT is wiggling out of his threats to Iran if US soldiers became injured caused by Iranian actions. He is now claiming that the soldiers just “got headaches” from the rocket attacks and that that’s all there was to it. Backing off to avoid war is fine, but please just be honest about your reasons. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

21 January: MASA: The farce is on with McConnell running the scam coverup. Will we get just 4 Republicans and all the Democrats to overrule McConnell and get witnesses. A couple of rule changes did go through, but not much of worth. Clinton (Hillary) just went after Bernie, “Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done”. It sounds a little like the children’s mantra, “Nobody likes him, everybody hates him, he’s going to go eat worms” (I know, I changed it a bit). It is almost funny if there were not those taking it seriously. Parts of Virginia want to join West Virginia over the gun reforms being proposed. In some ways, it would serve them right to join in with a perpetually impoverished state and then get all the benefits thereto. Mike the stuffed suit Pence and DDT are in the awkward position of denying that they know Lev Parnas when pictures and video clips keep appearing that show they met many times. As you know, DDT is in Davos Switzerland under personal singular protection of the Swiss army while pushing for the concept of climate change hoax decrying “prophets of doom” from alarmists. This despite floods and fires (Australia and the US West) threatening the world along with famine. Perhaps he can point an arrow towards some imaginary wheat field with a very Magic Marker and solve the problem. We have got to get rid of this dangerous ignorant idiot. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

20 January: MASA: The games are about to begin. The Senate is about to decide whether to commit a cover-up fraud or attempt to hold even a faint hint of a trial. Moscow Mitch is adamant in holding his nose ant any semblance of finding out what really happened. This is all about holding on to power. Of course, I hope he loses in the election and that we are done with him. Now DDT is another thing altogether. If he loses the election there are a number of indictments pending that could get him some free, but not very posh, accommodations and food. Perhaps that gut would shrink. So far Virginia gun nuts have been peaceful, especially compared to the two shootings (San Antonio and Kansas City) that each killed 2 people over nothing. It looks like Kellyanne ‘the mouth’ Conway is attempting to channel the ghost of MLK and claim the he (MLK) would be against the impeachment of DDT. I think she is losing whatever little mind she had long after she lost any sense of ethics and morality. As to MLK, I doubt he would want anything to do with DDT, the ugly liar and cheat who discriminated in housing against blacks and still denigrates at every chance. DDT has done almost nothing for people that look different than his background. Wow, the NYT did not endorse either Bernie or Biden. Looks like Lev Parnas is accusing Billy Barr, the AG, of bias and wants a special prosecutor. If he gets it (unlikely) that would quickly become interesting. DDT must be quaking in his alligator shoes. A huge caravan of people is attempting to enter Mexico from Guatemala to cross Mexico and enter the US. So far the Mexicans are attempting to block them. Sheer numbers may cause Mexico to fail. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

19 January: MASA: We are at one of those days just before something important happens. Sort of like being in the path of a storm the day before the storm (calm before a storm). This week the impeachment trial begins in the Senate with the only hope for anything fair resting on the shoulders of 4 Republican Senators and perhaps 1 or 2 others with some morals remaining. One can only hope. Arguments are being made that no crime was committed. That is not what the impeachment trial is about. Rather it is about the abuse of office for personal gain. In this case it is about the 2020 election and the personal gain DDT might receive from trying to get another country to manufacture false dirt on his perceived main opponent, Biden. Other than this, things are relatively quiet on the US news scene, so I will leave it at that. Bernie is playing liar again using a somewhat doctored video clip of Biden commenting on Social Security. What Bernie has left out is the fact that Biden was mocking another Senator at the clips’ start, not stating his own opinion. Bernie as extremist is well established with his monologue and finger wagging, but until now, I have considered him honest. It was OK at first to use the clip, but he persists even though by now he has to know the clip is false. Whatever happens in the primaries, I just want DDT out. Bernie is my very last choice among Democrats to become President. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

18 January: MASA: It looks as if the Nunes is in serious trouble, since new evidence shows his close aide was in deep conversations with Lev Parnas about Rudy G’s mucking about in the fake Biden scandal. It looks like Lev Parnas has a bunch of real dirt on the whole DDT crew. Good for him. I hope he takes the whole mess down. Of course, DDT still has Moscow Mitch in his corner for the upcoming Senate trial. Not looking forward to next week when the Gun Nut rally takes place in Virginia. The rules proposed are so mild that a protest is ridiculous and totally misinformed. Background checks are a very reasonable approach to make sure that mentally sick people and criminals do not have guns. The Democrats are proposing little else, certainly not removing guns from anyone with a legitimate right to own guns. There was an article in the Washington Post today showing the National Archive’s blurring of a picture of the woman’s march on Washington. The blurring was done because the signs carried had direct criticism of DDT and some mentioned parts of women’s bodies. Truly stupid move for the archives. Sanders in now going after Biden because of his alleged position on Social Security when he was a Senator. From my reading so far, it is not clear what is going on but it sure makes for a tempest in a teapot, which Bernie is famous for while wagging those fingers in everyone’s face. The war in Lybia is drifting towards being dangerous to the rest of the world and Europe is just sitting on their hands. Not good. No t that DDT is taking notice and doing anything either. He’s not even exhorting Europe to take care of their own backyard. One good reason might be that the Russians are supporting the rebels against the recognized government, and Putin’s B is probably trying to win favor ahead of the 2020 election. OK Enough for tonight. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

17 January: MASA: I’ve got to hand it to DDT for pure showmanship. He has hired Ken Starr, of Clinton impeachment fame, to be on his defense team along with another social climber, Alan Dershowitz. The Dersh has been salivating over this possibility for a long time making a fool of himself with thinly disguised thinking (if at all). Money can make fools of people, even people who do not need the money. The new book out on DDT (“A Stable Genius”) is an appalling description of our creepy commander in chief. It’s not on the bookshelves yet, but the author described some items in the book especially a scene where the Joint Chiefs (military leaders) and the Secretary of State (Tillerson) were trying to teach DDT some basics about the outside world. An infuriated DDT yelled and screamed at them making an absolute fool of himself berating them with statements like “you are stupid fools and cowards and are all failures”. Finally, only Tillerson stood up to him with the simple DDT you are wrong. From that point on DDT has surrounded himself with only yes-men. The result has been chaos on the White House mixed with willful law breaking. Today DDT snapped at CNN’s Jim Acosta as he attempted to ask him about Lev Parnas telling Acosta to “be quiet”. Nice move dummy. We have got to get rid of this embarrassment. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

16 January: MASA: The farce trial starts. Papers have been delivered and the show starts. Are you ready for a cover-up? Based on the papers and information from Rudy G’s crony, Lev Parnas. DDT is guilty as sin. He should be thrown out of office. Kellyanne made a fool of herself yesterday on Fox news. Nothing new here, just very explicit idiocy. The GAO (General Accounting Office) has found that DDT broke the law by playing games with Ukraine’s funding as authorized by congress. As is typical for DDT, he ignores US standards and tradition and the constitution and has pushed federal funds to religious groups in schools. We have got to get rid of this menace. Can you believe it? Barr (read DDT) is going after Comey again for leaking classified information. He has already been cleared for that. Enough. Let the farce begin. TBO. Hope for no major war.

15 January: MASA: Yes, Make America Sane Again and convict the stupidest and crookedest President this nation has had in modern times. Finally, the House has sent the impeachment papers to the Senate. Now it just takes some backbone and basic honesty to make DDT have another “first” in his life. The first President to be convicted after impeachment. It guarantees his place in the history books. It ;ooks as if the house and senate have enough votes to curb DDT’s war powers without consent from congress. With this president, curbing those powers is a good thing. The less power he has the better it is for all of us. Virginia became the last state needed to pass the equal rights amendment for the constitution that affects women. Let’s hope it becomes law. Last night were the debates among 6 contenders. Summed up, BORING. Nothing new was said, but there was bickering galore mostly between Bernie and Lizzie. The main thing is to nominate someone that is both honest and can beat DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 January: MASA: I know I should be watching the debate tonight, but I have grown tired of the incessant bickering and bloviating. It’s better that I read about it tomorrow in summary than watch it unfold in 2 hours. It’s basically going to be Bernie and Lizzie bickering with Biden trying to be a statesman. Bernie is leading in various polls now, which is disheartening to say the least. Of course, if he beats DDT, that will be some compensation even if his policies and attitudes (foreign policy and socialism) are far from my own positions. Go Biden! It seems that Lev Parnas of Gulianni fame has dumped a bunch of new documents and emails on the House committees. It clearly shows Giuliani attempting to compromise the future President of Ukraine and dig up dirt on the Biden’s. No shame on his part for violating the law. It looks like the Iranian plane was downed by two missiles with the first damaging the pane and the second causing it to explode. Our Canadian friends are trying to shift some blame onto the US. Pretty stupid. Now the Iranians have arrested the person alleged to have filmed the shoot down and posted the movie on line. Do they have the right person? Doubtful, according to a journalist that received the movie. He says that the person who made th emovie is safe and unknown to the Iranians. The worst news today is that the rate of ocean warming has accelerated. This is extremely disturbing for the consequences of global warming and damage to the US and other countries. This, as DDT tru ies to resurrect the coal industry and fossil fuel usage. The Senate impeachment trial starts soon with all of the posturing that you might expect from Moscow Mitch and his henchmen. There is a glimmer of hope as some Republican Senators seem to be having second thoughts about following the party line. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

13 January: MASA: Lucky day! Nothing much happened. The stock market is up, Bernie is ahead in New Hampshire and attacking Lizzie and then denying he is attacking Lizzie. Friends until they are not. The key will be super Tuesday coming up really soon, not the two tiny states. Bernie is the best choice to lose to DDT. Normal Democrats will have to hold their noses to vote for him. Aside from NOT being a crook and liar, he is the flip side of DDT and prone to ignore the rules of government to get his way. I’ve had enough of that from either left or right. The Senate impeachment farce will start soon, farce, that is, unless there are Republican with spine to stand up to Moscow Mitch. Perhaps the Iranian theocracy will collapse and a normal government will appear. Small chance. Enough for tonight. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

12 January: MASA: Vox Headline, “DDT demands Iran allow new antigovernment protests to continue”. I am sure as anything that this has sent chills of fear down the spines of the Iranian government. More chilling is today’s rocket attack at an Iraqi base where US troops are stationed. As of this point, it appears that only Iraqis were injured. It’s good luck for DDT, otherwise he would have to make a decision that might not have been to his personal benefit. Pelosi is warning McConnell and his comatose Republican followers that they will pay a price in they engage in a cover-up during the Senate impeachment trial. Good luck with that Nancy. It’s out of your hands now, and whatever happens it will be up to the election to get rid of the bum. Apparently, no one has seen evidence of any imminent attack on US embassies that was used in hindsight to justify the killing of Soleimani. As I mentioned previously it was marvelous to watch DDT lie in real time and be able to see from his face that he was fabricating and knew it. Other than that, it has been a quiet day. The Democratic primary in New Hampshire is heating up with Sanders now in the lead. It’s a bit sad to watch as Bernie is sort of the other side of the DDT coin. A man who feels that flouting the law is OK if it supports his leftist beliefs. His opinions on Venezuela, quietly supporting Maduro, and on supporting Bolivia’s Morales defying their constitutional term limit is very worrying. Flouting the rules to achieve your goals is very much like DDT even when dressed in a liberal cloak. Vote for someone else in the Primaries, please. On the other hand, if it is Bernie vs DDT, vote for Bernie. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

11 January: MASA: Irans admission of guilt in the Ukranian plane shoot down has sparked protest in Tehran. They definitely deserve the protest and should also assume liability and remorse while paying compensation to the families involved. The US did years ago in a similar incident. The reason for killing the Iranian general grows more hollow with the nearly simultaneous failed attempt on another Iranian leader. DDT was looking for campaign glory and nothing much else. Are these bad guys on the world stage? Yes. So far DDT’s gamble has paid off and retaliation has been minor. Democrats are conflicted about limiting the war powers of the president because in the hands of a mature responsible individual as president, the ability to respond to real threats is important. It is only with an impulsive 5-year old (mentally) in the office that this becomes are real concern. It looks like DDT is going to try to block John Bolton from testifying in front of the Senate by claiming executive privilege. It’s the old cover-up routine. Hopefully, it will not work. A bit of good news, China and the US have agreed to semi-annual trade talks. Some bad news, now that Sanders has moved up in the polls, DDT and entourage are attacking him with lies. Of course, not every attack is a lie. Sanders is a polarizing figure even among Democrats. Sanders vs DDT, I will vote for Sanders, but not in any Democratic primary. Bernie’s my last choice. DDT is threatening Iraq economically over keeping US troops instead of negotiating with an ally. Stupid. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

10 January: MASA: I actually heard the great turkey, DDT, make up a lie in real time about the potential attacks by Iran on US embassies. It is incredibly embarrassing to listen to a lie being created with full knowledge that the liar knows exactly what he is doing. Of course, DDT prefaced it with the cop out phrase “I believe that…” and then stated the lie. Nothing new here, except I heard it in real time instead of just reading about it. DDT has slapped new sanctions on Iran as a peace gesture to calm down war fever. What, you say, that makes no sense? What else is new? Pelosi is sending the impeachment papers to the Senate next week so that the “fun” can begin. Tune in to the Moscow Mitch show and watch the players. Good comedy show. It appears that there are photos of the missile that shot down the Ukrainian plane in Iran as scavengers clean up all evidence from the plane wreckage. Too bad, as the wreckage usually give solid clues as to what actually happened. It’s time for our liar in chief to go. TBO. Hope for no major war.

9 January: MASA: DDT has admitted the reason for killing the Iranian general after being presented with other less inflammatory options. He wanted the notoriety of killing a well-known troublemaker to help in his 2020 campaign regardless of the risk. It appears that he has lucked out, at least for now, with the Iranians lying about killing US soldiers in Iraq to placate their public. As to whether it holds is anyone’s guess. It looks like someone with an itchy Iranian finger panicked and shot down a civilian airliner with a Russian surface to air missile. To be fair, the US did the same thing many years ago near Iran. Now, little DDT (Eric) is lauding big DDT for his Iran strike and threatening Iran if there is any further military response. The sad thing that has happened is DDT’s proposed gutting of the environmental laws for pipelines, coal production, and building highways. McConnell has now said that he expects the impeachment trial to start next week. Should be an interesting attempt at a cover-up. Still waiting for shoe number 3 (frmo Iran) to drop. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

8 January: MASA: Good for DDT. He backed off from knee jerk reactions with “Let diplomacy work” after finding out that there were no casualties. Give him credit when there is credit due. Meanwhile there is the roiling mess in the Senate about the impeachment trial. Nothing really new, just grown men and women acting stupid. We just need 4 republicans to restore sanity. Where are they? 1. Murkowski, 2. Collins, 3. Romney, and 4. xxxxx? And, even these 3 are weak kneed. It was good of Irfan to tip off the missile launces so that no one got hurt. Perhaps tensions will die down. The stock market certainly thought so today. It is now appearing that Iran may have shot down an airliner by mistake with largely Iranians and Canadians on board. A shocking tragedy for a relatively new plane suddenly exploding at a little over 7,000 feet. This caught on cell phone video. Now, even some Democrats in the Senate think it is time for Pelosi to get the ball rolling and send over the papers. The best news is that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg says she is cancer free and ready to wait out DDT. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

7 January: MASA: Well the ping-pong game (not) begins. Iran has launched a dozen ballistic missiles at a base housing US soldiers. So far, no reports of casualties. This is not exactly the other shoe dropping, yet. In the background, the impeachment proceedings are grinding on with McConnel saying that he, and he alone, with the backing of his Republican spineless lackeys will make all the rules without the Democrats. If he does this, it will certainly be viewed as a cover-up. The price may come later in November. It really is time for America to get rid of both DDT and MM (Moscow-Mitch). Flynn and his lawyers must be really dumb. They has a deal where the prosecutors were recommending leniency, but had to suddenly switch to non-cooperative and abusive. Now they are recommending jail time. Perhaps DDT will pardon him. Don’t hold your breath Flynn. As if there were not enough going on in the world, Venezuela’s Maduro has made an additional mockery of the form of government. Armed police blocked the entranced to parliament to prevent Guaido, the recognized leader of the country and 100 senators, from gaining entrance so as to prevent Guaido from being officially elected leader. Meanwhile the people are starving with medical care almost non-existent. Oil and gasoline prices are surging in response to DDT’s foolish move against Iran. This usually presages a drop in our economy if sustained. Finally, in the news Harvey Weinstein’s trial is underway with Weinstein angering the judge with a performance on a forbidden cell phone. Smart Harvey. I just looked and DDT is tweeting about how great he is. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success.

6 January: MASA: Waiting for the other shoe to drop. So far, all quiet on the mid-eastern front. DDT has done it again. Defected the country’s attention off of his impeachment and onto the prospect of war with Iran and its proxies. The distraction may cost American lives, but what does DDT care, it’s not his life, and it may help him get re-elected (one hopes not). Senator Murkowski is again showing her iron will towards getting her Republican colleagues to play fair in the Senate trial. According to Murkowski, we should trust Moscow-Mitch and let the trial start. Only then should we consider the possibility of witnesses. Given the well-known fairness of Moscow-Mitch (think Garland), there should be no problem. Now DDT is going to deport Mexican asylum seekers to Guatemala to expand his anti-immigration policy. That makes sense (NOT). Oh goodie. Out erstwhile ally, Netanyahu, is now saying that Israel should stay out of the consequences of the Soleimani killing and let the US dangle by itself. Nice to have friends that have your back. Enough for today. Wait for the shoe. Inexplicably, the stock market is up. TBO. Hope for no major war.

5 January: MASA: DDT has successfully done it. Distraction uber alles. The shadow of impeachment has lifted from the public consciousness and that of the press. All we are concerned about now is the process of war, major or minor. This is mess of his own making. A thoughtless solo exercise in foreign policy without consideration for the consequences. Fortunately, the impeachment is alive and well with the fireworks about to begin once Nancy releases the papers. Will it bring DDT down, probably not with Moscow Mitch in control of the Senate unless the gutless Republicans demand a fair proceeding. DDT is now threatening Iraq with sanctions if they do not support the US. I can understand DDT being upset at the Iraqi’s reaction to our intrusion into their country without permission. The Iraqi’s just have to understand the awesome power of DDT’s self-interest. At this point we just have to wait for the ball of yarn to unravel. Good luck, everyone. TBO. Hope for no major war.

4 January: MASA: News articles talk about little itty bitty rockets fired at the US embassy in Baghdad that missed and hurt no one. Perhaps the next one will be a Medium or Large missile (yes they do come in at least 3 convenient sizes (S = pinprick provocation, M = Minor revenge with minimum effect L = Whoa Betsy we are about to start a war) not one size fits all. There are lots of other options to revenge the psychopath Iranian general that the US just killed. The man was single-mindedly responsible for hundreds of US deaths, embassy attacks, and now planning something bigger. Even so, killing him has been described as attacking a hornet’s nest with a baseball bat. If we get stung, the next response is not likely to be pretty. I guess, just for fun, Pence threw in some misinformation about Soleimani, the killed Iranian general, falsely blaming him for involvement in the September 11 attacks in New York City. Where Pence got this disinformation from is anyone’s guess. Probably, DDT’s gut (burp). Even if not avoiding an escalating tit for tat, DDT did take the news cycle off the impeachment problem. One only hopes that whatever happens next will cause DDT to lose the upcoming election and will not cost lives. Faint hope (not costing lives), I know. TBO. Hope for no major war. If DDT's presidencey does not kill a lot of people, it could be considered a success. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

2 January: MASA: DDT has gone and done it. Poked the Iranian bee hive and made the bees mad. Did the general that was killed deserve his fate. The short answer is yes. The man was a stone cold psychopath responsible for many deaths of US soldiers and Iraqi citizens. The world will be a better place without him. Now, DDT will have to cope with the aftermath as the bees look around for something to sting. What I do not want is all out war, but this is certainly a possibility depending on what Iran does in response. On another front, Biden raised a good amount of molney for the upcoming campaign. It was not as much as DDT or Bernie, but plenty sufficient. What really matters is what Bernie and his followers will do if Biden wins the nomination. Sitting out the election like last time is not an option. We cannot have another 4 years of DDT. The damage to the country and its institutions will be almost permanent. Good news. Flavored e-cigs are being banned. It’s too late for many teens and young adults now hooked on nicotine. E-cigs are a real setback for public health by encouraging young people to get addicted. The newly revealed unredacted emails are a bombshell for DDT. The question is will the revelation be enough to call witnesses at the Senate trial of DDT, of will McConnel continue to be the horse’s ass he has so fondly embraced. Well, jerks are not confined to politicians. The “affluenze” kid has been arrested for terminal stupidity. Good. That sucker killed 4 people and basically got off significant punishment for really drunk driving. From here, we just have to wait to see how Iran’s and N. Korea’s threats turn out and how DDT’s gut handles the situation. Scary, right? TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

1 January 2020: MASA: The decade and year are new, but little else has changed. Our clown, the beloved DDT, still reigns, or thinks he does, along with his chief legal beagle Barr. What a pair they make. Two distorted persons with human DNA. A pity. His counterpart in Israel, the far more intelligent, but just as stupid (in behavior) Benji N is asking his Parliament for immunity from corruption, as if that could be granted by mere mortals. No, BN the corruption is indelible, just as with the impeached DDT. It's a stain that no amount of political bleach can remove. An asteroid is hurtling toward earth even as I write this blog. It will barely miss us assuming our measurements and luck are right. Sooner or later one will hit. NASA needs the funds to deflect such objects, or perhaps the newly minted Space Force (trumpets please). Interesting article in Scientific American on Fermi’s question about why are we alone when there are so many possibilities for life within our small galaxy. The article goes round and round about why we appear to be alone. It could be that most intelligent life (consider Earth examples: whales, dolphins, certain birds, and some dinosaurs) simply do not care about interstellar travel and that we humans are an anomaly among highly improbable intelligent life elsewhere. After all, the dinosaurs were around far longer than we and never developed any even rudimentary technology even though some were intelligent (raptors). Whales and dolphins are probably barely aware of stars and galaxies. I’m more worried about the climate calamities that are befalling places like Australia and California with worse to come as the planet continues to warm and fires burn, water rises, and storms become more intense. A nice world we are leaving to our grandchildren with DDT blindly following his gut. Happy 2020. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

31 December: MASA: Tick tock Tick tock. It is almost 2020 and 2019 is passing without a sense that we got somewhere positive. We still have the DDT problem and the possibility that there might be another 4 years, and the possibility that I will have to write this blog for another 5 years. Either thought makes me ill. DDT is posturing with Iran over the rocket attack on US forces and the follow on with the US airstrike. Fortunately, DDT is not someone that wants war, but the question is he smart enough to avoid one.  I worry. A tweeststorm is acceptable. Susan Collin’s has let out another verbal blast using a large word to describe her feelings of violation “inappropriate”. My ears are burning. According to NBC, North Korea’s Kim is warning of “shocking action” with a new strategic weapon. I would just brush this off, but a tiny mistake could unleash a holocaust. A quote from Lizzie Warren as written in the Washington Examiner, “Warren trashes Republicans as 'fawning, spineless defenders' of Trump 'crimes”. Nice Lizzie. Now get practical with all this free stuff that is far from free. C’mon Lizzie, tell the truth for a change. The world is ringing in the new Year with a series of crises related to climate change, not the least of which are the fires raging in Australia. This is just the start if everyone just sits back and does almost nothing. Even the US under DDT is doing better than most of the world (China, India, Indochina, Poland). Yes Poland. The Poles have insisted to continue their major use of coal thwarting the agreement among the nations that gathered for the climate summit. Enough nonsense world, and especially the major countries. Get with it and cut back the production of CO2 and Methane. Meanwhile, HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

30 December: MASA: Tick Tock Tick Tock…..almost 2020. Headlines read that the US and Iran are headed to a war, but that war will be in Iraq and Syria. What is amazing are the attacks on the US embassy by Iraqis who really want to see their country controlled by Iran. Oh well. Let’s not get dragged into that quagmire. The NYT had a long article on the background of our perverted AG, William Barr, and his mission to have an all-powerful presidency and to foster religious supremacy for certain types of Christians over everyone else. The man appears to have along history of such bigoted behavior and a mission to push a conservative moral agenda. This is more than just helping DDT. It is a total abnegation of his duty to the office of AG in favor of long held personal biases. Hooray, Susan Collins has made another of her strongly worded protests against the policies of Moscow Mitch (McConnel). She said she’s “open” to calling witnesses. WOW. Such courage. According to Newsweek, a DDT biographer says that DDT “can’t stand” being laughed at since the impeachment vote. Apparently what this country needs is an organized laugh-in for a very sad president. I know he’s well intentioned, but Biden just told coal miners to learn to program in order to find jobs. I’m sure that there is a small percentage of miners that can learn to professionally program, just like any other group of people, but this is not good advice for those not mathematically inclined. Joe, you are out of touch. Just think of yourself learning to program at a professional level. Not happening. Pompeo is visiting Ukraine looking for those missing servers, I suppose. It’s a five country swing showing that perhaps the DDT administration doesn’t really know where those servers ae hidden, probably Russia. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

29 December: MASA: Tick tock tick tock the year draws slowly to it’s end. We start a new year, which hopefully will be a better one than this one, or as I suspect a year filled with lies and invective. I was listening to Meet the Press this morning where they were talking about the technique of the big lie, repeating it over and over until it’s mere familiarity lends it credence. The idea being to sew confusion until the uninformed has no way of knowing what is true and what is a lie. DDT is a master of this. Lie so fast that the targets have no time to set the record straight. Plus, even if the truth comes out is shamefully easy to start another lie. In the news is the fact that the US has carried out airstrikes against Iranian troops in Syria and Iraq. Australia is experiencing the effects of global warming in terms of record heat and devastating fires. This will only get worse in Australia and everywhere else. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know.

28 December: MASA: Recently there have been a lot of antisemitic attacks (hate crimes) where people have been killed, stabbed, or beaten, most of them in Brooklyn, NY, but also in other locations. While DDT is not directly responsible, his habit of purposely stirring up animosity against anyone different has contributed to an atmosphere of normality for such crimes. The US and the world has always had this problem of hate for a variety of reasons, but DDT has sort of given permission. Perhaps DDT should go back to where he came from, first New York City and then Germany. DDT is back again trying to “out” the whistleblower even though, if successful, that persons life will be in danger from his followers. The person he identified already, who may not be the right person, is now travelling with armed guards. Apparently, Pelosi is getting DDT really fuming with her withholding of impeachment papers until the Senate works out the rules of the trial. Unfortunately, Biden had to announce that if there is a Senate subpoena, he will ignore it. Better would have been to announce that he will testify in front of the Senate if DDT also testifies. That would accomplish a lot if DDT were to testify under oath. Nice, a federal judge has ruled that Georgia does not have to restore almost 100,000 voters to the voting lists following a purge of over 300,000 names. The best news is that some of the evangelicals have found they have a moral obligation to follow their religion and reject the crooked foul-mouthed bigot in the White House. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

27 December: MASA: Almost the end, well the end of 2019 and into the 2020’s. Can you imagine the damage another 4 years of the malevolent idiot for president will produce. I can imagine it, but certainly so not want to see it in real life. It’s a bad movie. The worst of it is packing the courts with incompetent ideologues for years to come. With Moscow-Mitch approving right-wing judges as fast as he can, Mitch-the B has already created majorities in some circuits that will impede any return to normalcy. Four more years, and we will have a complete disaster in the judiciary. The only good thing is Pelosi’s move withholding the impeachment papers is driving DDT nuts. Good for her. DDT wants the Senate acquittal to use in his campaign, but Pelosi is denying him the satisfaction to the point where he threatening her in the election. Fortunately, an empty threat. Apparently more Republican senators have severe misgivings about the way that Mitch-the-B is setting out the rules for the impeachment trial in the Senate. With a little luck it will be Mitch-in-the-Ditch. I just read that the anti-voter (voter-ID) law in North Carolina has been overturned by a federal judge. Good for now, but I suspect there will be an appeal and that stacked court may not look at the ruling impartially. The alleged whistleblower that DDT publicized is now being driven to work with armed security guards. Thanks DDT, you have endangered a patriot for perfoming his sworn duty. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

26 December: MASA: DDT is disturbed (this is not news), disturbed at Pelosi not sending the impeachment indictment forward to the kangaroo court in the Senate headed by Moscow-Mitch. Good for her. Keep DDY ranting and raging. It’s good for his blood pressure, which is true for all cold blooded reptiles. Nice! DDT has found an article in the Washington Examiner that printed an alleged whistleblower name and has publicized the name in a tweet. The problem is that no one knows if this really is the person, and even if it is, it puts this person at considerable physical risk from DDT's rabid followers. Nice going DDT. Lisa Murkowski (Senator from Alaska) announced formally today that she was disturbed. Good for her. The question should be, is she disturbed enough to take some action that might make the farce of a trial a bit more real. N. Korea is still quiet. Hold you breath. WOW. Another DDT warning to Russia not to kill innocent civilians in Syria. Perhaps the Russians will use rubber bombs or will use very smart bombs that only kill guilty civilians. There’s a lot more angry tweets floating around today that are not worth repeating. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

25 December: MASA: It is Christmas day. Things are momentarily quiet. We had a very stiff Christmas message from DDT and Melania. Not very sincere at all. IN the Senate, lawmakers are fighting over the trial rules instead of quietly doing something reasonable as happened during the Clinton impeachment trial. Of course, then we did not have Moscow-Mitch McConnel in charge. One can only hope that Kentucky is fed up with Moscow-Mitch and get rid of him. It looks like one Republican senator is “disturbed” by McConnel’s pledge to work hand in glove with the White House on the impeachment trial. Only disturbed? Murkowski should be outraged, not just disturbed. I get disturbed when bread is stale, or a plane is late, or when I get wet in a rainstorm, but outraged is if someone were to steal from me or hurt me or a family member, or your family. That is the difference. DDT is stealing our government and killing our institutions. Be outraged, not “disturbed”. Well, Christmas has passed and Kim Jong Un has done nothing (so far). Let’s hope he continues to do nothing. Please people, vote in November 2020 and Make America Sane Again. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

24 December: MASA: Make America Sane Again is a holiday wish for 2019 that I hope comes true in January of 2021 with the inauguration of a new sane president. In the meantime, we all have to hold our political breaths. One of the headlines is that Kim Jong Un is going to launch a missile or explode a bomb as a sort of Christmas present to the US. Really does not matter much as long as some stupid mistake is not made that causes destruction. Not much snow this year for Christmas in the US. A new poll just out shows that more than half of people that vote are in favor of impeachment. The other interesting thing is that the House has said that they could draw up new articles of impeachment after the Senate holds its mock trial on the current batch (after Pelosi sends them over). The purpose of a second impeachment is to try to get former White House counsel to testify as part of a court case enforcing a subpoena. As usual, DDT’s henchmen in congress are spouting nonsense. In particular Kevin McCarthy just fired off a tweet with 4 crazy items that are demonstrably false to try to tell everyone that the FBI was trying to go after DDT on purpose. Of course the other bozo, Rudy G was spouting off with nutsy claims about George Soros as an enemy of Israel and other assorted nonsense. Enough for today. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

23 December: MASA:  Took the day off. More tomorrow

22 December: MASA: Shock shock, Republicans are mad a Pelosi for holding up the impeachment papers to forestall a Kangaroo-Mitch court. Mitch will go down as one of the most unprincipled Senate leaders in history, especially when it comes to packing the courts starting with Garland. Schumer is exposing a new email that shows that Ukraine aid was held up 90 minutes after the phone call with Zelensky. Too bad Zelensky did not know a bit more about US law. He could have suckered DDT into a blatant admission of bribery. Buttigieg is moving both to the center and to the left at the same time causing severe spinal stress. He’s against the Medicare for all, but for a Medicare option (centrist) and for a fast track to citizenship for the 5500 undocumented immigrant families who were separated under the DDT plan. Even though one can agree with both of these items, there are also many Democrats that can only agree with one or none of these. He’s now wider and thinner. Any more  stretching and Buttigieg will turn sideways and disappear. FOX news has a liberal contributor (WOW) who claimed that Rudy G is transparently corrupt. I’m glad he finally noticed the wart on the end of his nose. Someone sent me a picture of Schrodinger’s Dumpster with the label “Empty When Full”. If this really is Schrodinger’s dumpster, then until you open the bin there is no way to know if DDT is dead and gone or if there is garbage inside. So much for geek humor. Democrats better get out and vote in November 2020. The damage DDT has done to the country with Moscow-Mitch and Billy-Barr is still ongoing, especially in the appointment of many young unqualified judges with strong right-wing opinions. The damage will go on for years even after DDT is gone. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

21 December: MASA: DDT is now spouting Putin’s take on the impeachment process. If DDT’s first name was Mitch it would rhyme with Putin’s B. Cannot have everything rhyme perfectly in life. So, it’s Putin’s puppet. At least we have alliteration. We have the State of the Union coming up on the 4th. Hopefully, this will be the last time we will see this clown standing in the House chamber spewing garbage. Miller, in the White House, is doing his evil best to screw people over. He’s the malignant person behind a lot of DDT’s policies. Now, it’s food aid to the poor in a manner similar to his treatment and disdain for people that cross our borders. A quote from the Hill, “‘Tis the season. Though for this White House, it’s not the season for loving kindness — it’s for delivering hunger and misery.” There are adults without children that are extremely poor. “According to Feeding America, this population is desperately poor, with an average annual income of less than $2,200.” The change is under the guise that if you take food away from poor people (they only qualify for 3 months of assistance anyway) they will find jobs and work. These are mostly people too sick or injured to work, or people temporarily out of a low-paying job. Merry Christmas from DDT. Another quote, Chicago Tribune, about voter suppression,” Trump adviser tells Wisconsin Republicans that GOP has ‘traditionally’ relied on voter suppression but will ‘start playing offense’ in 2020” and “Justin Clark, a senior political adviser and senior counsel to Trump’s re-election campaign, said at the event. “Let’s start protecting our voters. We know where they are. ... Let’s start playing offense a little bit. That’s what you’re going to see in 2020. It’s going to be a much bigger program, a much more aggressive program, a much better-funded program.” Good to know that in their hearts the Republicans are for honest cheating. Nice, DDT punches back at some evangelicals accusing them of communist leanings based on the editorial suggesting that impeachment is appropriate. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

20 December: MASA: Holiday season approaches and I would like to forget for a short while about the idiot at the helm. The Republicans have their shorts in a knot, which will not change until DDT leaves office or they are soundly defeated. Moscow Mitch continues along he nefarious path along with other players, especially Barr, our erstwhile AG. A few positive things have happened. The budget is passed and DDT will probably sign it, we have a new Space Force and can hope it does not turn into a Space Farce, parental leave got expanded for civil servants, NASA’s budget has increased, etc. The evangelicals have a crack in their monolithic support for DDT, mainly because of his support for suppressing abortion (deal with the devil). However, there is new nonsense brewing on the abortion front with DDT attacking the poor and lower middle class making it hard to get insurance coverage. For the rich, we are talking pocket change. Putin has now come to the defense of his lap dog, DDT. Very strange. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

19 December: MASA: I am listening to the last Democratic debate, finally. At least this time the crowd has diminished, and the comments are slightly more interesting. Some of the candidates are not talking about themselves but talking about issues and beating DDT. The latter is noble and essential. From a legal point of view DDT has not been impeached until the bill of impeachment is sent to the Senate. Does it matter, yes, but not for a while. If Pelosi can negotiate a better deal in the Senate for the impeachment trial, then a modest delay is appropriate. Republicans want speed to get the scandal out of the public eye. Tough, buddies. The House has passed the “improved” NAFTA agreement with only the Senate and DDT left to sign off. Now DDT has Putin actively supporting him against impeachment. I can almost see the lint falling off DDT as he peaks out from Putin’s pocket. Apparently DDT got his Ukraine nonsense directly from Putin (according to administration officials) and now spouts Russian propaganda. The last thing is beyond the pale, DDT attacked the dead Senator Dingle by assigning him to hell because his wife is politically against him. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

18 December: MASA: Well they’ve gone and done it. The crooked Donald J Trump (aka, DDT) has been impeached. After listening to some of the Republicans in the House or Representatives speak and rant you would think that DDT has done nothing wrong at all, when his whole presidency has been rife with lies, abuse of power, and obstruction of legitimate investigation. One of those monumental geniuses compared DDT to Jesus during the hearings. Perhaps now the Pope will switch allegiance. It’s time for DDT to go, either now or in November 2020. USA Today, “DDT’s impeachment is a monumental victory against blatant corruption and for democracy”. If you get the chance, read DDT’s impeachment letter, it is the saddest funniest piece of bad thinking ever. You could not script such garbage. Next, we have the Rudy show to watch as he delivers a report on the fake misadventures of Joe and Hunter Biden. We need to subject him to sworn testimony and then pack Rudy off to jail for lying. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

17 December: MASA: Welcome to the unfunny fun-house. McConnel will hold a kangaroo court with out witnesses or testimony. The fix is in and the jurors bribed. I guess this is Republican justice. Have a closed mind and follow orders in exchange for campaign support. At least there is comedy in NYC. Comedy if you are just reading about a stupid man sending pictures of himself peeing. Not funny if you know the idiot and are the recipient of the pictures (Allegedly, CBS 60 minutes, I’ve heard). OOOOO! DDT says, “he will take care of it if N. Korea starts testing”. That should scare the diaper off Kim. Good news, finally, girl scouts sold a record number of cookies. Bad news, people bought and ate a record number of girl scout cookies. Summary. Girl scouts are bad for public physical health, but good for mental health. Nothing much is happening again as we wait for DDT to be tried in the Senate. Beat the fool in 2020. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

16 December: MASA: Scary! Almost a year from elections a USA Today poll shows DDT ahead of any and all of the Democratic candidates. This is an impossible situation, with a lying crook as President who is purposely trying to grant himself the powers of an absolute monarch or dictator. Russia now refers to DDT as “our puppet, our agent in the US government”. This is intolerable and must be stopped. Republicans are to afraid for their own jobs to do their duty to protect our Democracy, and some are just as big liars as DDT. Remember Carly Fiorina, the failed HP CEO and failed candidate. She came out for DDT’s impeachment (It’s vital), but was not willing to say that she would not vote for him again. I cannot believe one of Rudy G’s allies. He is claiming that $1 million he received was instead a loan to his wife. Right! DDT is scaring N. Korea. He said that he would be DISAPPOINTED if N. Korea has something in the works on its nuclear program. WOW, that is really stern. Looks like there is a major falw in the new treaty with Mexico and Canada. Somehow the idea of US labor inspectors on Mexican soil got left in the treaty making Mexico very unhappy. This could blow the whole treaty out of the water. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

15 December: MASA: If only this world and the US really became sane again. Listening to the Republican senators make excuses, at least one, Lindsey G, was honest enough to say the Senate trial was not going to be real. Just go through the legal motions and blow the whole bribery and obstruction of justice charges out without even thinking about them. Reverse Kangaroo court. Nadler: Giuliani trip to Ukraine shows 'crime in progress' is being committed against American democracy. It never stops. DDT knows no limits, has no moral values, only self-aggrandizement. We have got to get him out of the presidency before he destroys our democracy. The people who only perceive their self-interest, even falsely perceive it, are fools to support DDT. They will scream if this country collapses around them. The new NAFTA agreement, USMCA (sounds like it could be part of that song using YMCA, funny for DDT). It does have a bunch of Democratic “reforms”. I just hope having those reforms in the agreement does not make the trade portion fail. We’ve apparently have two black holes in the center of our galaxy. That is extraordinary, and one empty hole in the White House. There’s is nothing we can do about the former, but we can get rid of the latter in 2020. Please vote! TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

14 December: MASA: The democrats are in a hard place. They are wrestling with a pig in the mud, and the pig likes it. It is hard to argue facts when the other side lies and distorts, especially when the facts are not 100% complete. It’s a lot like trying to argue climate science with spitefully ignorant people. The won’t believe there will be flood until their house is under water. Plus, what is going on right now is tiring to listen to and to respond with calm answers. One want to shout that the sky really is falling while the pig just wallows in the mud. (A bit of a mixed metaphor. Who cares?). Surprise, the New York Times has backed impeachment. I’m sure that carries a lot of weight in Ohio. Lindsey Graham is at it again promising to do everything to make the Senate trial to die quickly. In other words, a total farce. And DDT is after Fox News for interviewing Schiff and Comey. DDT hates when anyone else is in the headlines. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

13 December: MASA: There are two articles of impeachment with most Democrats voting for impeachment in the House and probably the Senate. The Republicans will make a mockery of the process in the Senate, fast-tracking the trial just to get it out of the way. One only hopes that they pay dearly in 2020. Cases are being heard in the Supreme court about DDT’s finances. One can only hope the justices can put aside their party affiliations and vote on the facts and the law. If this President winds up feeling he is totally above the law and immune from any restraint, then we as a nation of laws are in real trouble. Moscow-Mitch has just announced that he will conduct the Senate trial in close coordination with DDT and the White House legal team. This will not be a trial on the merits, but a reverse kangaroo court with the outcome based solely on fear, fear of loss of their jobs in a primary fight. So far the trade truce seems to have terms that favor China, with the first step agreement just a political cover for DDT. We will have to wait for more details to become public before knowing for sure. Already there are signs that the $50 billion in agriculture sales to China may just be a DDT lie. There’s more than one DDT operating in the US. A prime example is the former governor of Kentucky (Moscow Mitch territory) who issued pardons to convicted murderers and child rapists if their families contributed to his campaign substantially. Republican morals and ethics are a sad joke. Oh great. Climate change talks have stalled with blame falling on the US. This may not be justified long-term, but DDT is certainly making a mockery of the science of climate disaster. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

12 December: MASA: The carnival has started. The Republicans are indulging in a TV ad blitz trying to trivialize what is most certainly not trivial, namely a President that abuses power and neglects the very foundations of our democracy. I hope the country, the voting country, understands what is happening and boots our dangerous idiot out of office. After that, we can let the historians and the courts make sure he gets his just reward, preferably free housing and food by New York State for fraud and tax evasion. On the other side of the pond, it looks as if Boris J is leading the election. The UK will get Brexit, probably will lose Scotland, and will pay an enourmous economic price. Plus, they will have to put up with their own version of a liar and fraudster, DBJ. One good bit of news is that congress past a bill preventing a government shutdown next week, assuming that DDT signs the bill into law. Another bit is that the US-China trade war may be ending somewhat with the signing of an agreement. Once again, it is up to DDT, so who knows? TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

11 December: MASA: DDT just gave a screech today in Hershey PA. that took the doors off sanity. He railed against the FBI calling the agents scum because they put crooks like Manafort in jail (but they were my crooks he thought). He trashed the head of the FBI for telling the gtruth about the IG report. DDT went after Lisa and Strozk claiming falsly that Lisa had to get a restraining order against Strozk. Quoting VOX “Over the course of a more than 90-minute delivery, Trump pushed conspiracy theories and blatant lies, trashed law enforcement officials that aren’t blindly loyal to him, exhibited thuggish tendencies toward protesters, made misogynistic remarks, and demonstrated that he fundamentally misunderstands the Constitution.” It is a President totally out of control, lashing blindly at anyone that stands in his thuggish way. Even 1 more year will be hard to take, but just imagine the mess that 5 more years will bring. We have to get rid of the ignorant B-d in 2020. By the way, DDT has threatened the US with mayhem if he loses. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

10 December: MASA: The Republicans are truly and shamelessly ugly. After DDT applied pressure to finish negotiations on the Canada-Mexico trade bill and achieved bipartisam approval in the House, The Senat is delaying considering the bill until next year and blaming the Democrats and Pelosi of playing politics. This is one of the only meaningful pieces of legislation that DDT has been able to put together and get it passed. The olnly way this game playing will be stopped is the throw the Republicans out of office. Kevin Big-Mouth McCarthy in the senate has denounced Pelosi’s announcement of passage as politically motivated. At the sane time McConnel is refusing to bring the bill to the floor for consideration. This is little different from the hundreds of bills past by the House that he ignores. McConnel has got to go. He’s every bit as bad as DDT and his personal lawyer, the AG of the US, Bill Barr. One thing for sure, Barr will go down as the worst AG we gave ever had. Rigjht now, Barr is interpretikng the AG report in a totally misrepresenting way, saying that investigating corruption quietly in the background in 2016 was influencing the election and is a danger to our free system. Utter nonsense. He saying that the people investigating the criminal are guilty and not the crook, DDT. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

9 December: MASA: The IG report is out and concludes that the investigation was justified even though certain aspects were not handled properly at a low level. Of course DDT is taking the relatively small errors and trying to turn the conclusions on their head. His personal attorney, AG Barr, is doing his best to try to discredit the report. Good luck. The real truth is contained in the Mueller report showing clear Russian interference in the 2016 election. It is clear that DDT and his henchmen (e.g., Rudy G.) are doing it again for 2020 and that DDT is encouraging the effort. It is especially dangerous that DDT continues to try to corrupt the election process and will continue to do so unless forced to stop. It is sad, but true. We have a criminal as President, a criminal so long in his life that the behavior is second nature to DDT. The only solution is to get rid of him, either by impeachment and conviction of by the 2020 election. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

7 December: MASA: Ukraine is firing back with an English language newspaper showing Rudy and his hencment and the administration figures who committed bribery in Ukraine. It’s pretty scathing. It looks more and more that the evidence of bribery is solid. Does DDT care? No! He’s got his fawning Republican cowards in the Senate that can be counted on to precedent him from being summarily kicked out of office. To some extent, the country is turning against DDT and his henchmen. LA Times just came out strongly for impeachment and conviction. DDT’s best buddy in N. Korea is getting et to spit on him. No worries though, with a chicken as President there is no risk. Of course, Rudy G is back in Ukraine thumbing his nose at congress and the US still looking for mythical dirt on Joe Biden and on the 2016 election. I hope he get his just desserts. DDT says that Rudy G will file a report with the DOJ on his Ukraine findings with DDT saying, “I’ll bet he found plenty”. Pure bull. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

6 December: MASA: Pelosi has given the go-ahead with force. Good for her. It’s save our country time from a potential dictator, and an incompetent dictator at that. Again the White house backtracks saying that it will not participate in the impeachment process. At least they cannot complain that they were not offered an opportunity. Of course, the truth never stopped them from claiming the opposite. Just please, do not ask DDT for a weather forecast. WOW Justivce Ginsburg puts a temporary hold on releasing DDT’s financial records related to Deutsche Bank until 13 December. OK. Let’s hope the court refuses to hear the case, then it is game over for concealing records. Rudy G just did everyone a favor. He just exploded the republican defense while travelling in the Ukraine. “The conversation about corruption in Ukraine was based on compelling evidence of criminal conduct by then VP Biden, in 2016, that has not been resolved and until it is will be a major obstacle ... to the US assisting Ukraine with its anti-corruption reforms,” Giuliani claimed, even though no such evidence has emerged.” Bottom line in all this is that it is an expansion of the swamp with lots of little brained Republicans swimming in the murky waters. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

5 December: MASA: There is a time for news and a time for quiet, well relative quiet. If you saw the video clips from DDT’s disastrous visit to Europe, the clips showing European leader making fun of him behind his back. And, the most hilarious was of a diplomat purposefully walking past DDT to shake hands with some one else. What was funny was the look on DDT’s face as he was pointedly ignored. Good old DDT cancelled his news conference rather than face more humiliation. The world has got your number DDT. Be ignored or just get out of the way. Another legal scholar has confirmed that DDT’s actions are abuse of his office and power. Impeach the bum and get it to the Senate quickly. The historical record will condemn DDT regardless of what the gutless Republican Senators do during the trial. Today was pretty quiet, which is remarkable for DDT. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

4 December: MASA: Today was a day of interesting education on the contents and meaning of our constitution, particularly as it pertains to impeachment. Three of the four constitutional experts firmly agreed that DDT committed the high crimes and misdemeanors envisioned by the founding fathers and also the crime of bribery. Even the fourth, Republican scholar, admitted that these actions would be impeachable even though he did not think that enough was done to warrant impeachment. The Republican ranking member gave a sour-mouthed summary of the Republican position of unfairness and the lack of definite proof. In an analogy, there is concrete evidence that a gun was fired on 5th Avenue and a body was found close by, but there was almost no blood. According to Republicans, firing the gun and finding a dead person with a bullet hole is not enough unless there is also a gallon of blood. In plain terms, if there is no tape recording or video of bribery, then it never happened. Barr just got a jolt. His handpicked prosecutor told the justice department that there was no there there. In plain English, the Republican theory that the Russia interference case was a US intelligence setup was pure BS (those were not his exact words). DDT, the lying president, says he does not know Prince Andrew (mixed up in the Epstein scandal) even though there are pictures of the two of them together. DDT claims not to know Rudy G. either. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know.

3 December: MASA: Surprise! The House committee found that DDT solicited foreign influence in the 2020 election and that the evidence for this solicitation is overwhelming. Of course, the Republicans characterized the proceedings as an unfair, politically biased ordeal. They cannot really dispute the facts (although some try to lie their way out), but they can fume and fuss about the very fair process. Kamala Harris has dropped her campaign bid for the presidential nomination and some right wing newspapers are now saying that liberals are fuming that the stage is all white (Cory Booker anyone). Anyone that could stab a friend in the back the way she did to Joe B. in the first debate ambush does not deserve to be in the campaign. I lost all interest in her after that mean-spirited fiasco. One good thing coming out of the impeachment report is just how involved was Rudy G in all the Ukraine machinations. Along with some other people, I hope he and his firm go down. The investigators got hold of Rudy’s phone records and they are damning to both Rudy G. and DDT. The records show clearly that Rudy G spoke to the White House, Nunes, and OMB throughout the Ukraine bribery attempt. OOOO….A FOX news Tucker Carlson quote, “Russian President Vladimir Putin doesn’t hate America as much as some American journalists, such as NBC News’ Chuck Todd.” That must have taken all 2 digits of his powerhouse IQ. Only in Chicago, Ex-police commander does not have to go to prison for collecting his mother’s Social Security checks for years after she died. Why not, the dead used to vote in Chicago, so why not collect the checks. After all, she might come back to vote and need the money to buy a new sheet. On the financial front, DDT lost his appeal to block Deutsche Bank and Capital One Bank for disclosing financial records. Sooner or later we are going to see them. The final irony, Rudy G is suing the Fox News Host for calling him part of the Washington Swamp. Good luck Rudy. Enough goofy stuff for today. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

2 December: MASA: Now he’s really done it. There will be a shortage of French fries and a big increase in the cost of French wines. He’s hitting the tariff button again (2.4 billion) on imports from France to offset the EU’s going after US high tech companies. He’s also going after Argentina’s and Brazil's steel industry claiming that their currency devaluations are giving then an unfair advantage. The reality is that these two countries are having lots of problems and their currencies are naturally fluctuating downward, but not being manipulated. Bottom line, as usual, DDT is punishing allies. The big news is that AG Barr and DDT’s personal lawyer is interfering in the IG’s report to congress about the FBI investigation into interference in the 2016 presidential campaigns. DDT doesn’t like the report, since it does not correspond with his fantasies. Barr is the worst AG this country has had, a total corrupt dud. DDT is claiming that Zelensky’s remarks clear him of bribery when the exact opposite is true. It’s the old Nazi trick, lie often enough and the lie becomes believed as real. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

01 December 2019: MASA: Now we know. DDT and the White House will NOT participate in the upcoming House impeachment hearings. So much for wanting to be allowed to participate. As usual, lies and BS. The bottom line with DDT is that he has desensitized (not me) the American people to continuous lies and general BS. He has also desensitized the people to the danger that lies ahead in a court system now weighted in favor of ideologues. If Ruth Bader Ginsburg does not outlast DDT, we are all in serious trouble. Just look at the gun law cases coming up in front of the Supreme Court with looser rules in the offing. Next will be concealed carry on public transportation. Why not? If you can carry in a super market, a college campus, on the streets, why not on public transportation? Somehow the “well regulated militia” part of the 2nd amendment has just slipped everyone’s mind. There has just been several shootings with the most recent occurring in New Orleans, 12 people shot with 2 critical. The Republicans plan to get Adam Schiff to testify in front of the judiciary committee that will handle the next phase of the hearings. That should be really interesting. Chuck Todd speaking to a GOP senator (Kennedy) from Louisiana pointed out that the line of misinformation he was bleating was exactly the line put out by Putin. No matter, he said, he read it and believes it. The biggest issue on our radar is the effect of climate change that is occurring before our eyes. Of course, DDT is doing his best to make sure that the world is not doing anything to prevent further damage. Pelosi will lead a Democratic delegation to the UN climate change conference Fortunately, DDT’s poll ratings are slumping, which really gets him angry. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

30 November: MASA Joe Biden is finally hitting Iowa hard during an 8-day blitz of the state. Go Joe, but please start showing some real energy and spunk. Attack the dummy in the White House pointing out how stupid and duplicitous he is in DDT’s dealings with everyone. Apparently, Kamala H is totally unable to run a campaign without abusing her staff. If she cannot run a campaign, she certainly is not qualified to lead the country. Go Kamala (AWAY). Other than the weather, it’s been a quiet weekend so far. DDT is putting on his best imitation of a President following the advice that Clinton gave him (indirectly). Namely, get quiet, keep your head down and appear to be working for the American peple. In DDT’s case there is damn little that he has going for him that is real work. Pretend DDT pretend and stay off the tweet machine. But no, just like any addict, DDT cannot resist another bite of the apple. He’s back from visiting the troops and is in Florida where he’s tweeting up a storm about his latest frustrations. He desperately wants the new trade treaty, the NAFTA look alike, that contains small changes conceived by a small mind that managed to upset both our neighbors. Right now, he’s mad at Pelosi because of delays. Too bad, but impeachment is more important than your little treaty. It was pointed out today that the Republicans have managed to set up the court so that a democratic president and Senate will have a hard time making changes. The last two appointments are definitely in favor of preventing agencies such as EPA, FDA, Agriculture, or NOAA for doing their jobs protecting the American people. They are against congress writing legislation with goals that agencies can update as techonolgy and knowledge improves. The degradation of the courts will be DDT’s real legacy. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

29 November: MASA: Black Friday has come and gone, and our biggest heavily discounted slightly used item has not sold., It’s not that we haven’t tried, but so far no buyers. There was a major sales attempt these past few weeks with close examination of the item and with professional antique evaluators trying to put a price on it. Even deeply discounted with a 90-day full guarantee that you were getting the genuine item using the original full orange leather with just the regular amount of I don’t care wrinkles. I guess this item will have to wait until the after Christmas sales, or perhaps we can just return it to New York where they have volunteered to house and feed it. There are some people in other countries that expressed some interest, Russia (but Putin wanted it stuffed), N’ Korea (but Kim wanted it with feet in 12 inches of concrete for easy mounting in the square), and Ukraine (they wanted if gift wrapped, which Melania offered to do). But no, it all came to naught, so we are stuck with the item until at least the day after Christmas (hope spring eternal). DDT is back in his adopted tax haven, Florida, soaking up some sun before venturing north to the gathering clouds. Yes, there is a storm brewing that is supposed to hit NJ and north, but DDT has got his magic marker out redirecting the weather. Watch out! The real winter storm could dump considerable snow in NJ and points north. The brilliant Republicans in Ohio have proposed a bill that would force doctors to kill woman or face murder charges themselves. What you say, how could this be? Sometimes women have what is called an ectopic pregnancy where the fetus is developing outside of the womb in a woman’s fallopian tubes (usually fatal to the woman). The Ohio geniuses are requiring the fetus to be inserted into a woman’s womb to continue the pregnancy on pain of imprisonment for the doctor if he doesn’t do this. The problem is, there is no such operation possible. So the choice, the woman dies (problem solved) or the doctor saves the woman’s life and goes to jail or is executed for murder (problem solved). Brilliant. We need more stable genius Republicans. Oh yes, I forgot to mention that stocks fell today on fears that the China trade deal will fall through. DDT says that he doesn't care, it’s not his pension. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

28 November: MASA WOW DDT made a surprise secret trip to Afghanistan for Thanksgiving. I’m impressed. "Martin O'Malley just drove Ken Cuccinelli out of the Dubliner in DC w/ a passion-laced and shame-invoking tirade on behalf of immigrant refugee children!!!" described in a tweet. Clarence Thomas is upset oat Biden for questioning him during his confirmation hearing on the sexual harassment of Anita Hill. My take on this is that although Biden questioned Thomas he was not sufficiently accepting of Hill’s testimony. She was shortchanged and Thomas was confirmed. Bad for her and bad for us. What a surprise, DDT likely to reject Democrats' offer to appear in impeachment inquiry hearings. Will he or won’t he. DDT is threatening to designate Mexican cartels as terrorists. This would be fine if the Mexican government agreed, but they do not. Apparently, DDT cannot find any trace of the phone call he claims will exonerate him. Surprise or lies, bet on lies? Enough for Thanksgiving. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

November 27: MASA: Today is Rudy G’s turn in the bucket or under the bus. He’s been caught with his hand in the cookie jar ($200,000 Ukrainian pay day) even though it appears to have come out without the cookie we know about. DDT is in the process of disowning Rudy even though Rudy says he has insurance. This Thanksgiving holiday has the weather to worry about. Major storms are all over the place. Let’s hope we all arrive home safely after the holiday (even DDT and Rudy G). More fires in California and flooding in Alaska (a village moves inland). At OMB 2 budget civil servants resigned over the Ukrainian halted military aid claiming that did not want to participate in something that breaks the law. Also, DDT apparently know about the whistleblower’s complaints two weeks before they were public, and like magic he released the funds. This is equivalent to insider trading in a way, but probably legal and certainly unethical. As we already knew, DDT played fast and loose with his valuation of his buildings with one value for getting good terms on loans and another for paying taxes. Guess which one was substantially higher. Tough one, huh? Once a multi crime crook, always a crook. TBO. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. RBG has to outlast DDT.

26 November: MASA: DDT just got an invitation to a party where at least half the people will be happy to see him dance. To wit, he was invited to the first impeachment hearing to do the jitter (bug). I’m sure, if he attends, that he will have plenty of jitters. So many jitters that DDT had to make up polls and poll numbers to suggest that he was winning the impeachment battle. Loser! The biggest thing today was the release of the UN report on climate change spelling out the looming disaster and the current edges of that disaster (floods, food shortages, fires, and massive population displacements). Grim news that makes DDT fade to obscurity. Of course, four more years of that clown will be bad for the US and global climate, Get rid of him is 2020 or sooner. Nice, DDT told allies that he wants the absolved war criminals to campaign for him. Perfect fit. We criminals need to stick together until we win. TBO. The DDT tax case is being considered by the Supreme court. If they take it up, it means more delays. Let’s hope sanity prevails. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

25 November: MASA Finally we have the official word. Presidents are not kings says the judge that is ordering the White House counsel McGahn to testify in front of congress. Now if only DDT would get the memo. Of course, the fake King’s justice department is appealing the decision and it probably will be up to John Roberts to decide the fate of our democracy. Let’s hope he has the intelligence and courage to declare that DDT is not a king. The navy seal stuff simmers on, but eventually will amount to just a small bump in the road. It is pathetic that someone who so violated human rights gets off with zero penalties. The Supreme court has extended the stay on the release of DDT’s tax returns pending the filing of more papers. If they agree to hear the case, it will not be until after the holidays that we know the outcome. If they decide in DDT’s favor, we will be one more step towards a dictator. Schiff says that the impeachment report will be available after Thanksgiving. Then, sometime after that the House will vote on impeachment and the action will move to the Senate. It is looking more and more likely that Rudi G is going to be dragged into jeopardy for his “consulting” work. Meanwhile, Lev Parnas has submitted recordings to the house committees. This should be interesting. If only there were more recordings like those produced by Nixon. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

24 November: MASA: DDT will do anything to win favor with his extreme right wingers. Messing with the Navy Seal case is an example of a President intruding where he should not, but DDT cannot let others do their jobs. A byproduct is the Navy Secretary Spencer has been fired over the case. Fired because he failed to tell his boss, Mark Esper, about a private channel to DDT. Nice going guys. Hong Kong just held local elections and gave the pro-China candidates a sound drubbing. Now what? Sanders has his britches on a knot over Bloomberg entering the race with a lot of money to take out issue ads. I am not in favor of Bloomberg entering the race this late, but what has Sanders reaching for his nether parts is the probability that his and Lizzie’s proposals will get exposed for what they really are. Promises that cannot be kept and are far too disruptive if by some miracle you could enact such legislation. Even if Bloomberg just educates the electorate, he will have done a service. Devin Nunes, pusher of ridiculous conspiracy theories, is probably in deep trouble over his personal involvement in the Ukraine mess by making trips to Ukraine and hunting for snipes. A Rudi G associate has connected Nunes with the search for Biden dirt in Ukraine. He’s got some explaining to do to the House ethics committee. Interesting Meet the Press this morning with Adam Schiff as a guest. He was pushed as to why the hearings are over or almost over and what comes next. The answer is that the hearings are not over even though there is more than enough evidence already for impeachment, but that things will slow down unless more administration people agree to testify in public. I missed it in real time, but apparently Kelly the mouth Conway was stumbling over her eye teeth trying to square the circle that is DDT’s attempted bribery. There were lots of words and grimaces, but little content. Why bother? Is there good news? YES! The good news is that RBG has been released from the hospital in apparently good shape. Boiling in the background is the Uighur China tragedy with China prepared to go to any length to punish those speaking out about China’s brutality. Hanging in the balance is the bipartisan legislation criticizing China that DDT may of may not sign and its effect on the trade deal. Lots going on. Do not hold your breath. Breath in (slowly) and breath out. Repeat as needed until 20 January 2021. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

23 November: MASA: Is the Senate going to throw DDT under the China bus? Looks like it on the issue of Hong Kong’s bid for freedom from a dictatorship. DDT may veto congress’s bill or ignore it. Either way, an override of his veto or just ignoring it and allowing it to become law may torpedo the nascent trade deal. Watch out stock market and the economy as China and the US trade economic blows. Looks like Pelosi has her hands full with a bunch of extreme climate hunger strikers not satisfied with her handling of climate legislation. She basically ignored them until now when they made headlines in the Washington Post. Their demands are over the top following AOC’s attention getting climate proposals. Yes, climate is a crises that the government is ignoring, but proposing legislation that would cause massive disruption (zero hydrocarbon use in 10 years - electric ariplane anyone) is useless, especially if it derails acheivable legislation. Pelosi’s characterization of DDT’s actions on Ukraine as bribery (specifically called out in our constitution as part of High Crimes and Misdemeanors) seems to be sticking based on the facts uncovered in testimony before the house committee. DDT is panicking badly striking out at everyone on Fox news for over 50 minutes. Sad-fun to watch and read about. Rudi G. threatened DDT, saying he better watch out given what he (Rudi) knows abut the Ukraine situation and other matters unspecified. Nothing like a good friend. Oh fun! John Bolton is accusing the White House (DDT?) of blocking the use of his Twitter account (nor recovered). The White House contends that Bolton is getting old and just fogot his password. For better or worse, I wish Bolton had the courage to tell whatever it is that he knows in public testimony instead of just snorting through that trademark mustache of his. DDT has backed off banning flavored e-cigggies worrying about the effect on employment (think election results) but not on the health of your kids. On the Senate side a sad story of Lindsey Graham’s abuse of a long term friendship with Joe Biden and his son Hunter in name of political expediency (avoiding a primary fight threatened by DDT) by calling for a Senate investigation into the Biden’s activities in Ukraine. This would be fine, if it had not already been shown that nothing improper occurred. It looks like Rudi G was in touch with Secretary of State Pompeo as part of the Ukraine DDT bribery scandal and ousting of Marie Yovanovitch as US ambassador. More bubblers in an already boiling pot.

22 November: MASA The impeachment hearings seem to be over with pretty-clear conclusions. DDT did it! DDT denies everything. DDT fabricates and prevaricates. And finally, he offered a bribe. Impeach the idiot and let the Republicans in the Senate make fools of themselves. The republican excuses are pure HS and almost everyone knows it. Even FOX news knows it, and sometimes actually calls then out for it. The Ukrainians knew about the aid hold as early as 26 July and the name of the oil company BUrisma became a code word for the Bidens along with the term “big stuff”. He’s guilty as sin, but will probably get a pass in the Senate until after the election. If America throws him out of office, then I hope NY gives him a much smaller office without a view. It’s time to restore sanity to the US. Now, the Democrats have to get their act together and quit adding candidates. It needs to be either Pete or Joe without Bloomberg trying to buy his way in. Pity he did not enter earlier. He might be the best candidate combining intelligence, experience, moderation, and honesty. Meanwhile the main goal is to get rid of DDT and save our country. MASA = Make America Sane Again.                               Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

21 November: David Holmes and Fiona Hill just drilled another big hole in DDTs’ defense with his testimony of who met with who and what was discussed. They knocked down Nunes’ arguments, saying he was furthering a conspiracy pushed by Russia to shift blame for the 2016 election interference. Ukrainian officials viewed a White House meeting with President Donald Trump as extremely important. But DDTers in the White House viewed it as a means to an end to get dirt on Biden and on the 2016 election interference. The DDT tax return circus is still wending its way through the Supreme Court. Hopefully, they will decide while DDT is still in office and before the election. Newsweek thingks that Pompeo will go to jail and not the Senate. Perhaps he and DDT can wear matching orange jump suits. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

20 November: The hearings rumble on producing clear evidence of DDT’s duplicity and attempted bribery. The Republicans are arguing, “who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes and ears? Classic DDT argument. Just like his HUUUUUUGE inauguration crowd. More testimony tomorrow and more Republican obfuscation. No disappointment there.It now appears that everyone was in the loop and knew everything, including our tarnished sterling AG.

19 November: Today’s hearings did not do the Republicans any good as they tried to coerce the name of the whistleblower out of the witnesses. No luck there and Schiff shut them down. However, tomorrow, Wednesday, could be a wild ride with Sondland testifying and changing his testimony again. DDT went after Sondland, but that is an ignorable par for the course. If DDT does not go after you, your worth is nothing. That DDT is guilty of attempted bribery is definite. The fact that he ineptly screwed up is beside the point, just as attempted murder is beside the point insofar as being guilty of a crime. Not enough happened to day compared to yesterday to justify a long paragraph. Perhaps the biggest news is that Federer is going to retire. Unlike DDT, Federer will be sorely missed. The other good news is that New York is suing Juul now that DDT has backed of shutting down flavored vaping. Remember, voting this time is more than a civic duty, it is the possibility of saving our country and restoring it to greatness. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

18 November: More details on the DDT call to Ukraine. David Holmes said I’ve never seenanything like the DDT Sondland call”. More witnesses are expected, 8 I think for the remainder of this week. Plus there are indications that DDT stupidly lied to Mueller. This cold also become part of the articles of impeachment. I do not know what they are thinking claiming that the Israeli settlements are legal in Palestinian territory. Not only is this a doubtful claim, but is likely to inflame tensions in that area. Oh well, crazy people in charge around here. More and more it looks like Pompeo was involved in the smears against the US-Ukrainian diplomat with Pompeo calling Fox News’s Hannity. Finally, the polls are swinging against DDT with young voters wanting DDT to be removed from office. The big news is that the Supreme Court has placed at least a temporary hold on cases about releasing DDT’s tax returns. Let’s hope this is only temporary. DDT is back from Walter Reed Hospital with no one believing anything. I wonder why DDT’s credibility is so low? Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

17 November: Wow: DDT attacked a Pence aide after she said the Ukraine call was unusual and inappropriate. Sondland looks like he is going to spill some more beans (that is, correct his lies and omissions). Next, he’ll dump Pence for a better looking vice president. Pence looks like a zombie hanging around in the background waiting to be activated. Pelosi says she will give DDT every opportunity to defend himself in the impeachment inquiry. I can just see him taking up that offer and testifying under oath with a lie a minute. Republicans are fretting a and fighting over Sondland’s upcoming public testimony, as well they should. It may be a bomb as he tries to save his hindquarters for lying in previous testimony. Who would have guessed, Buttigeig is way ahead in the Iowa polls. Pete is way ahead of the closely bunched 3 musketeers, Joe, Lizzie and Bernie. After them, there are the hangers-on of little consequence. Drop out guys and save us a lot of boring hot air. Meanwhile, we have two new bozos, the ex-governor of Mass and the NYC billionaire, neither of which stand a chance. I have to admit, both are well spoken and responsible people. Biden is back atop the delegate hunt overall. What is genuine fun is watching the Conway couple self-destruct over the DDT abomination. Nice, DDT’s press secretary says it is dangerous to question DDY’s health information. Sounds stupid. To me it’s perfectly appropriate for anyone with credentials to question the data. Iran and Hong Kong are in the midst of real protests. In both cases, a lot of people could be hurt. Enough for today. I’m sure there will be more clown-car stuff tomorrow.

16 November: It’s starting to boil. Bubble bubble spelling trouble. Which might be a witch hunt, but which witch will ride the rail out of the White House tarred and feathered for us to ponder looking back from the future wondering how could DDT have happened? What were they thinking in 2016? People are turning against DDT with a White House budget official from OMB testifying having knowledge of the aid money for Ukraine. He’s testifying in private for now, but there probably will be public testimony and certainly a small leak or two too. That DDT is as stupid as he appears is startlingly evident from his tweet during the hearing for the Ukrainian ambassador who was summarily vilified and kicked out of her position to further the personal gain of DDT in the upcoming 2020 elections and probably to feather the nest of Rudi G. I imagine when the focus shifts from DDT, the small slime will go down as well. David Holmes, a State Department aide overheard directly a call between DDT and Sondland while sharing a bottle of fine red wine. Apparently, DDT was shouting into the phone so that Sondland had to pull the receiver from his ear for all to hear (two others heard as well). “So is he going to do the investigation” shouted DDT. Sondland, the modest well-spoken person that he is responded that “Zelensky loves your ass” and would do “anything you asked him to”. Nice talk. I have to give it to Schiff. He’s running the committee hearings fairly with little opportunity for BS. The spineless Republican Senators may save DDT from riding the rail, but the point has been made. DDT is a proven crook and should go down for bribery, plain and simple along with his conspiring cabinet. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

15 November: DDT is doing everything he can to enhance his chances of being impeached. His tweets performing character assignation during testimony of the ambassador are reprehensible and corrupt. Witness intimidation at the very least. His tweets denigrated the ambassador's competence, brought up the theory that the Ukrainian president spoke unfavorably about her and said that he has the right to fire diplomats at will. He also said that she will suffer. If nothing else, the tweets caused Republicans into saying positive e things about her. Roger Stone, who is a DDT supporter, has been convicted and will be sentenced soon. I wonder if DDT will pardon Stone. Probably by the end of his term after the election. Another shooting case in California with a gun that the kid should not have been able to get his hands on. DDT is at it again trying to block the House committee from seeing his tax returns. I hope the Supreme Court is not political on this. Enough tonight. Just have to let these hearings play out. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

14 November: Another day another school shooting, and the big turkey does nothing. Just sits there with his fat gut taking orders from the NRA. DDT you were hired (as President) to do a job; DO IT! Finally, Pelosi calls it what is, not Latin stuff, but BRIBERY, a constitutionally recognized reason for impeachment. Bribery and extortion are the correct words. Funny funny….Pelosi tries to explain the word exculpatory to DDT. "If the president has something that is exculpatory—Mr. President, that means you have anything that shows your innocence—then he should make that known," Pelosi said. The tax return fight is heating up in the Supreme Court. Let’s hope he loses. Lizzie W. is doubling down on her fights with billionaires by threatening them with a confiscatory wealth tax. Sounds good, but actually is a terrible idea. Now taxing income is a really good idea to make them pay a fair share. Pray for RBG, she needs us and we surely need her.

13 November: First day of public testimony and Bill Taylor threw a small grenade, telling the committee that there was a second phone call to Ukraine that one of his staffers monitored and heard DDT speak. This 2nd call was to DDT from Gordon Sondland (Amb. To the EU) and DDT asked Sondland about the investigations. The reply was that the Ukrainians were ready to move forward (with an investigation of Biden). As expected from the Republicans, Nunes didn’t bother to really question people but stuck with his trademark insulting of people (a DDT mini-me). Now, or course, DDT has complicated things by meeting with Erdogan with the specter of an arms deal with the Russians looming over the discussions along with the touchy subject of Turkey’s incursion into Syria and driving out the Kurds with many atrocities (murders, rapes, and theft). Globa warming effects, what global warming? Yeah, now Venice’s main square has flooded shoulder high. Just a one-time fluke, right. DDT doesn’t believe in global warming, so it must be fake, blub blub. Bad news, the Supreme Court Justice RBG missed oral arguments today because of an announced stomach virus. Let’s hope it is not something more serious. She has to outlast DDT. US China trade talks are not near a conclusion, DDT lied almost 100 times about this subject in an effort to boost his election chances. China is offering no protection for US intellectual property and will not commit to buying any specified amount of US agricultural products. Why should they when dealing with DDT is so unreliable and they now have other sources. So, thanks, DDT for screwing up another piece of the US economic pie.

12 November: It’s 10 o’clock and all is well. At least the British are not coming. Yes we had our T-party and we have it now laced with DDT, but still all is well. Put your muskets away and stay warm in front of your fire, until 2020, and then vote and TBO.  Four years of DDT has done significant damage, but if it ends here, the democratic system of government will survive. Four more years and it might be over. DDT is now bringing in another member of FOX news to be on his staff to help with the Ukraine problem. This is man who has consistently misled DDT with false information, either made up or fed to him by Rudy G. Pretty sad to bring such an incompetent person in at this stage. Particularly the person who almost single handedly is responsible for DDT’s impeachment. Guess what? There are miracles. Pete Buttigieg is now leading the field in Iowa, but the question is can he go on winning. Pete vs DDT on a debate stage should be very interesting indeed. Right now the Supreme Court is hearing the DACA case for kids brought here at a young age and granted opportunities to stay here if they worked or went to school and kept a clean record. DDT desperately wants to dump these kids into a country (Mexico) where they have never lived. Blame Stephen the alleged racist Miller for that. Oh, that’s interesting. There is strong speculation that DDT will dump Pence for Nickie Haley in 2020. Perhaps Pence will tell all in revenge. On the home front, GOOGLE is mining your health data, but says, you can trust us. Really! Not again, there is an article claiming that Hillary C. might want to run again (Never say never she never said). She and Bloomberg would make a good team of dropouts (please).

11 November: DDT was asked if the sky was blue and answered that it was altered by Adam Schiff to appear blue but really was not blue, more red than blue, he said. Then he added that the transcripts were also altered by Schiff so that we are not getting the true picture of the closed door testimony that really was totally exonerating not impeachable offenses. The fact that before release the transcripts were carefully reviewed by lawyers, both Republican and Democratic, and found to be without errors seems not to matter. As DDT says, “when in doubt make it up and when pushed, lie”. A worthy credo to live by. Again a judge has dismissed a DDT lawsuit against a New York State AG and the House Ways and Means committee about releasing his tax returns. I’m sure this will go to the Supreme Court on appeal. More good news, DDT’s approval rating just hit its lowest point among women. Unlike 2016, perhaps in 2020 they will get out and vote the bum out of office. This week when the testimony goes public, there should be real fear in the Whitehouse, fear that distractions will not dispel from achieving impeachment. It looks like Pence has been steering foreign aid to Christian groups in violation of the constitution’s prohibition of favoring one religion over another. Well, no one said that Pence was perfect, even though his home state said he was perfectly awful. Schiff shifts to open hearings and airs Republican's dirty laundry for all to see.

10 November: Whoa Nellie! DDT just admitted that the call to Ukraine was not perfect (but not impeachable). A hint of truth from America’s biggest liar. Is this a change? Of course not. It’s the cry of a desperate man knowing the ax is coming down (either election loss or impeachment). The Republican’s are afraid, so afraid that they are trying to throw grenades to distract. So far, the whistleblower won’t have to testify according to Schiff. This is good, since all the evidence is out there without the whistleblower. The Republicans just want to distract from damnation. Klobuchar went after Buttigieg for being a man with (in her opinion) limited experience instead of a woman. What she doesn’t recognize is that he is much smarter and better educated than anyone else on the stage. Too bad Amy. No matter what happens the bottom line is to get rid of DDT and get him some orange clothes. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

9 November: Well, Nikki Haley, a future presidential candidate for the Republicans, just let us know where she stands. She’s politically and ethically blind as a bat based on the musings in her new book. She accepts most of what DDT is doing and the way in which it was done. She lacks the courage to see past her own ambitions. Meanwhile the evidence piles up on DDT’s extortion scheme with Ukraine, ehough so that members of the investigating committee think that there is enough to impeach. Now the job is to let the public hearings go forward and get the voters behind conviction. Funny, even now, just after entering the Democratic race, Bloomberg leads DDT by 6 percentage points. The only two democrats that scare me are Dizzy Lizzy and her impossible funding of Medicare for all plus free burgers for everyone and her erstwhile tutor Bernie, who at least is honest about the cost and the need to raise taxes. Rand Paul is lamenting the loss of the governor in Kentucky but talking comfort in the rest of the Kentucky races. I’ll give him Kentucky, but much of the country is getting pretty tired of Republicans and all the lying. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer.

8 October: Now for today’s news. DDT has announced that he may not lift the tariffs as part of the China trade deal. What a surprise. The stock market took note of the wavering and declined. With DDT nothing is steady except for lying, and that you can count on. There is a relentless effort to intimidate whistleblowers by DDT, his son, certain Republicans in the house and Senate, and Fox false News (home of the conspiracy theories). John Bolton’s lawyer says that Bolton knows of meetings on Ukraine that have so far been kept secret. Bolton needs a subpoena. Please get him one as soon as possible. And then there is “Anonymous”, the famed author of a NYT op-ed that made DDT’s hair stand on end (what little of it that is still there), has now released a book that appears to rip DDT up one side and down the other. At lunch today, there was speculation that “Anonymous” may be Kelly Ann Conway. Having her be the author would explain access to inside information and would explain why her marriage has not exploded. The theory is she treats DDT as a client the way a criminal lawyer treats a murder suspect, all out for the client, while privately holding the opposite view. COULD BE, I’m just saying. DDT’s staff is claiming that his rate of confusion and stumbling speech is increasing. Not good for the US. Enough for tonight. Still one shoe up in the air. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

7 October: It’s the evening of the 8th, but I was so tired last night that I could not bare to think about the shenanigans of DDT and his lackeys. Defender of all things DDT, Barr, is outdoing himself making the Justice Department a defense law firm for his client, DDT, instead of the American people. His latest trick of refusing a press conference exonerating DDT, but having the Justice Department put out a release that there was nothing to the Ukraine affair. Good trick, but it did not work. Now Barr and Lindsey Graham are huddling together to figure out what portions of the IG’s report to release that makes DDT look as good as possible and classify the rest. It won’t work. It will leak and Barr will look like the fool he has become. Some good news, some of the red states (Republican) are backing off from curtailing Medicare much to the relief of poor people. The biggest thing is relaxing the bogus work requirement affecting so many poor who are either already working or cannot find jobs for a variety of legitimate reasons (caretakers, child care, lack of transportation, illness, etc.). Denying medical care is immoral. Jeff Sessions is hunting to get his Senate seat back while lavishing praise on DDT (no honor there). And yes, one more piece of good news, a Judge has ordered DDY to pay 2 million out of his own pocket for abusing his fake charity to further his political ambitions in 2016. We elected a person who behaves like a crook and has done so all of his life. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

6 November: We have a new vocal DDT supporter group, the Russians, who feel they have won the lottery with DDT systematically weakening the US both at home and in his foreign non-policy. Russia is only too glad to step into the vacuum left by Putin’s stooge. Russia is saying that DDT is making Russia great again with the chaos caused by DDT making the US more and more impotent. Russia loves him. To me he seems to cause actions that might be ascribed to a traitor to the US. It’s sad so far, and would get a lot worse if he wins again. TBO, throw the bum out, sooner rather than later, but in 2020 for sure. Rudy G has now hired his own legal team to defend him in what is almost certain to be criminal proceedings. The problem he had was that major lawyers refused to take his defense. I wonder why (right)? Democrats in Congress are giving Lizzie W’s Medicare plan for all the deep freeze, sort of pushing the panic button on a sure to lose cause. This is one of those days between dropping shoes. Perhaps tomorrow the “other shoe” will drop. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

5 November: and all is well. Well, well is relative isn’t it? Things could be worse. DDT could be starting his 2nd term of 4 more years. Four more years to destroy the remnants of our democracy. If nothing else, a second term DDT will get to appoint 2 or 3 more politically biased justices insuring our gradual descent into a banana republic ruled by the insulated rich. It’s time to make sure you get out and vote in 2020 to make sure the clown is out. Right now, I am waiting for the results in Virginia and Kentucky to see if sanity might prevail. To me it is incredible to hear the bleating from dyed in the wool DDT supporters talking about how wonderful this president is to the country and how we should appreciate his efforts to cleanse the country of people who do not look right (to DDT), to make sure that the government is as intrusive as possible into women’s lives (lights, cameras, action, in your bedroom). Yes indeed, vote for the fiscally conservative Republican party and watch the dept expand and expand. Who cares, your children or grandchildren will pay, not you. Republican health care consists of low-cost insurance that covers almost nothing encouraging you to hurry up an die before you need public assistance (also saves on social security). Environment, who needs this. Coal polluted water and air are a problem for the poor, not for important people. Fires in California. People there should follow DDT’s sage advice and start raking the forest floor. Stupid is as stupid does, and DDT sure does stupid. On the news front, transcripts of testimony are being released that further damn DDT. As public sentiment swings against DDT (except for his die-hard crowd) he could actually be in danger of both impeachment and conviction, or at least losing the 2020 election. Thanks to DDT, the Iran nuclear deal is really coming unraveled, which could lead to war with any misstep. Meanwhile the highly intelligent politically moderate Pete Buttigieg is creeping higher in the polls while dizzy Lizzy is declining. Go Pete! Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's personal lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

4 November: DDT is becoming more and more incoherent as the impeachment investigation rolls on. It’s good to see fear and worry hit the idiot. The transcripts of testimony are being released, which is causing even more trouble. Plus, the appeals court ruled that his tax returns held by his accounting form must be released. We’ll get a much better idea as to how crooked this crook has been. Good. Now Fox news is attacking itself with Hannity claiming that the rest of Fox news in incompetent. What’s wrong Sean, your mirror fogged so that you cannot see just who is screwed up? Sigh! DDT is now campaigning for governors making a national issue out of local races, trying to paint democrats as extreme. Let’s hope he loses at least some in the “red” states he is visiting. The polls are turning against DDT with more people favoring impeachment than against. If this keeps up, the cowardly Senate might vote to convict if the perceive that their jobs might be on the line. What is good for the country will not suffice for those bozos. Interesting, Pete B is rising in the polls, especially in Iowa. Listening to him is a pleasure. Complete sentences properly formed with coherent thought behind what he is saying. Even when I disagree with a detail, it is a well thought out detail. A man who speaks 5 languages including English. China is getting close to sign a trade deal made possible by our great negotiator giving away the store. DDT needs the deal for his election campaign. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

3 November: The NYT has an interesting article on the tweeting history of DDT and how he uses the medium as a substitute for responsible governing. He hires, fires, threatens, and blusters. The net effect is a gradual degradation of our form of government. He’s the very thing that Hamilton was afraid of, a man of no principle and little intellect. A stable horses rear end. Nice play DDT. Pressuring the news organizations to find out and reveal the whistleblowers name. Don’t you realize, DDT, that if you did that you would only inflame the impeachment process. Stupid! Now DDT is playing blackmail with California and its fires blaming the state for mismanagement (rake the forest) instead of where it belongs, global warming. He’s threatening to pull federal finds to help the state save lives and property. It’s a basic function of government, but what does DDT care, since California is not going to vote for him regardless. DDT is now ordering aides not to talk to Congress even if subpoenaed. Ever hear of obstruction, DDT. It’s part of the impeachment charges. Enough writing about that idiot president for tonight. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

2 November: Dizzy Lizzy (W) is at it again. Now it’s free beer to go with free college. After all, we all know that college students drink to stay sane, so why should they have to run up massive beer bills just to achieve a healthy state of mental intoxication. Of course, this is not true (false news). But she is offering a variety of free stuff that we cannot afford to have the government pay. Just add it all up and it comes out way over the top compared to the “soak the rich” to pay for it all schemes. 6% wealth tax will not be enough. Stealing the money that your employer now pays for your medical insurance will not be enough. Putting a tax on stock trades will not be enough. Taxing the middle class on top of all these other schemes will do the trick. Just look at Europe. They do it with high tax rates on everyone. If you like the European model of stagnation, then let’s go for it. A vote for Lizzie is a vote for DDT in the general election. Young voters in the coastal states will love it, but voters elsewhere that work for a living and barely make it will hate the freebies. Pelosi is warning Democrats over these hyper-liberal proposals, that Democrats must win in the electoral college, not just a popularity contest with the base. Meanwhile the impeachment proceedings roll on, even though somewhat delayed by a judge’s ruling in reviewing a plea to settle whether the house subpoena’s have more weight than the administration’s demand that no one testify. There are lots of witnesses that can testify in public with or without that ruling. The public hearings will be devastating to DDT. He’ll bluster and whine to his base, but where it really counts, DDT will lose. Let’s not give him the Lizzie boost. The latest poll shows Joe B out in front again. Go Joe, DDT’s nemesis and the only one of the candidates that is making political sense instead of posturing to the young unwashed. DDT’s campaign promise of an impenetrable wall has gone down the drain as a complete waste of money and effort. $100 and some elbow grease lets Mexican criminals cut holes in the new wall. CNN has been releasing notes from Mueller’s report that are damning for DDT showing conspiracy and obstruction related to the 2016 election. Mueller, who could not defend his own work in public, may rise from the oratorical dead and strike terror in high places through his notes. Buzzfeed has published some of the notes.

1 November 2019: Goodbye Beto. Nice to have known you. WOW. Lizzie W has struck again raising her tax on the wealthy to 6%. Now this is not an ordinary tax on earnings, but a repeated tax on accumulated wealth with the effect similar to compound interest, but in a negative way. Over time, this tax is punitive and will destroy fortunes that are well deserved. Some fortunes are not well deserved, such as hedge fund managers. Lizzie’s tax does not discriminate between hedge fund managers and people like Bezos, Musk, Bill Gates, and others who built fortunes by building value for America. Increasing their taxes on earnings is legitimate so that they pay a fair share, but Lizzie in intent on giving things to people for free by stealing from other people. This is a bad unworkable system of populism that has failed miserably whenever tried. It resembles the false promises of DDT. “Voters are sick and tired of politicians promising them things that they know they can’t deliver," said Senator Bennet (Democrat, Colorado). The Urban Institute estimates that $34 trillion in new spending would be needed, while Lizzie only estimate $21 trillion. Both numbers are astounding and do not take into account all the other freebies she wants to give away. Don’t be fooled. DDT is back lying again (surprised?). He tweeted that 300 thousand jobs were created when only 128 thousand were actually created. Lying does not make it so, DDT. The “rats” are leaving a sinking ship. DDT’s Ukraine team is running for cover and quitting with some testifying to Congress. Impeachment is almost certain, conviction in the Senate would take courage where non is evident. DDT is pulling a tax scam again my claiming to move permanently to Florida. Since he does not live there except for vacation like stays, it will be hard to pull off. Florida has no personal income tax or estate or inheritance tax. Interesting play DDT. There is no end to the madness with DDT. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer.

31 October: Boo, it’s Halloween. The one who should be scared is DDT , since the impeachment investigation vote was successful. Republicans as usual in House testimony were lying through their gritted teeth about the rules governing the investigation going forward. Now they will have to switch their strategy and deal with some of the facts. Scary indeed! Oh No. We might get to listen to DDT (Fireside Chat, shades of Roosevelt) reading the transcript of his Zelensky transcript. That is one program I will skip. The man makes me sick just to hear his voice. NYC has been saved. DDT has changed is primary residence to Florida. Not sure why, but Mar-a-Lago is where you will find him now. Perhaps a political alligator will chase him. In testimony, White House official confirms that there was a Ukraine quid pro quo. Quake in your boots DDT.

30 October: Obama came out against a so-called “woke” culture. A culture where you call out anyone that strays from a political or cultural line that you happen to favor. It may make you feel good to criticize another person to prove how awake you are to the issues of the day (as you see them). The Democratic party is doing just that by forming a classic circular firing squad taking aim at anyone else’s position that does not dovetail with their's. It’s a sure way to feel righteous and lose. A big offender is Lizzie W, who is going around making impossible promises to anyone that will listen and then calling out people who think she is full of …. For proposing revolution in the US in terms of debt forgiveness, free child care, universal government medical care for all, free college, and free from responsibility. She’ll go boldly where others have gone before and failed. I fear for the nation if she becomes the Democratic candidate. I’ll vote for a turkey sandwich in 2020, but at the same time I will hate voting for a turkey. Sort of Democratic candidate Tulsi Gabbard is possibly going to run a Ralph Nader campaign to insure that Democrats lose by syphoning off votes. Clinton accused her of being groomed by the Republican for just this sort of spoiler role. Note today, not one mention of you know who. Good for Twitter. Twitter has banned political ads. A step in the right direction, C’mon Zuckerberg lead by following. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is XXX's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

29 October: This time I must agree with Republicans. It’s time the hearings were made public. The Vindman testimony should be fully revealed unlike the intentional omissions from the Whitehouse transcripts of DDT’s phone call. Of course, DDT responded in the only way he knows, namely, insults and character assimilation. The bone-spur man knows no shame towards a person who serves the country honorably and was wounded in battle. The closest DDT gets to battle is spittle spraying from his ugly mouth. The Republicans are chafing at the bit (horse’s you know what) to out the whistleblower’s name, particularly that idiot Devin Nunes. It’s a party that has been so distorted by DDT that no semblance of honor remains. Hopefully, the 2020 elections will remove them from poser in all 3 branches of government and we can get about the business of undoing the damage caused by DDT and his henchmen. At least one Republican, Liz Cheney, got after her fellows for smearing Vindman. It looks like Vindman’s testimony raises questions about Sondland, DDT’s appointment of a big contributor to his 2016y campaign. Time to drain the swamp. Barr is now attempting to deny the House access to the Mueller grand jury testimony even though they are entitled to see the testimony. Surprised? No. Barr is DDT's toady.

28 October: Breaking news (sort of). Pelosi is going to hold a formal vote on impeachment to shut up Republicans (sort of) claiming that impeachment hearings are being held without a vote even though there is no need to hold such a vote. Of course, the vote will go along party lines. With voter sentiment turning against DDT it might even get some Republican votes (who knows). On Tuesday, 20 October, Alexander Vindman is set to testify as a person who actually listened to the phone call to Ukraine and felt that it was entirely inappropriate. Vindman has the “chops” to be thoroughly credible and is not a Democrat or a Republican. He’s a senior White House NSC official who twice reported DDT Ukraine phone call concerns to adminstration officials. The other things that is so disturbing is DDT’s FAA continuing to loosen regulations on air safety by delegating more authority to the aircraft companied to police themselves. It’s almost as if they are not aware of the Boeing disaster with the 737 Max. The FAA should be tightening regulations and inspections not making them looser. Even though it’s not worth mentioning, DDT is railing against the intelligence services at the same time he is praising them for the recent successful raid in Syria. Bottom line, DDT is your friend when it suits his own purposes and will put a knife in your back when it does not. Let’s get rid of this unstable dummy. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer.

27October: Baghdadi is dead by explosive vest suicide pathetically whimpering cornered by a dog, but there is a new leader already, Hajji Abdullah al-Afari, as if it matters. The terrorism goes on committed by religious zealots and psychopaths. DDT's moves on Syria will restart the problem. Our sociopath, DDT, wishes he were a real dictator (Duterte?) so he was totally free of rules. He also issued a fake posed photograph of himself in the “situation” room running the show with mock seriousness. Katie Hill is quitting congress because of a sex scandal. How come this doesn’t apply to DDT? Pity! Biden is honest to a fault. Asked if he would only stay president for one term, he answered that he would have to see how things are at the end of 4 years. The press twisted the answer to imply that Biden would not run for a second term or at least was silent on the idea. Apparently, DDT told Mattis to “screw Amazon out of the 10-billion-dollar Pentagon cloud contract”. Nice guy. Personal vengeance over country, Get rid of the bum. There is a book out on DDT, “All the President’s Women” it’s a hell of a disgusting read according to the Washington Post’s book reviewer. I can imagine but prefer not to think about him. Everything abut DDT is crooked or disgusting or disgustingly crooked. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

26 October: They’re back. US troops cross the Iraq border on their way back into Syria to protect the oil fields with Russia huffing and puffing mightily. So stupid DDT, taking a mostly stable honorable situation and turning into a swamp with a burp of your imperious gut. Being led by an insane person is totally unnerving and almost incomprehensible to normal minds. Hopefully, your days are severely numbered either by impeachment and conviction or by the election. In either case, I am hoping that it is swiftly followed by jail for financial fraud in New York. On the home front, California is in trouble with fires eating at the core of the state and the power company scheduled to shut off power to 3 million people. This is basically unimaginable to most of us having a wide area power loss for multiple days. It’s not problem with starving to death or dying of thirst for most people, but there are some for whom this cold be fatal. John Kelly, former Whitehouse chief of staff, says he warned DDT not to hire a yes man after he, Kelly, left in a dispute with security officials and with Melania. Naturally, DDT has denied Kelly’s statement. “John Kelly never said that, he never said anything like that. If he would have said that I would have thrown him out of the office. He just wants to come back into the action like everybody else does,” DDT said in a statement. Even funnier, Stephanie Grisham, a White House spokeswoman, said “I worked with John Kelly, and he was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President.” Turkey is now threatening to flood Europe with Syrian refugees. In some ways Europe deserves its fate, in other ways this will be a calamity both economically and politically. Hopefully, it will not happen. The Brexit clock keeps ticking with BoJo (an erudite DDT clone) threatening a new early election in December to further roil the waters. Breaking the law comes easy to DDT. DDT told Mattis To ‘Screw Amazon’ In Its Bid For $10 Billion Pentagon Contract, illegally and unethically interfering with the  awarding process contract because he hates Bezos (Bezos owns the Washington Post). Just more fodder to throw on the impeachment fire. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

25 October: Good for the judge. He found the impeachment probe legal and said that the House must get the Grand Jury Mueller material from the DOJ. I suspect that this will be a long string of losses for DDT and his henchmen. What seems really good is that civil servants are risking their careers to testify about what has gone wrong with the DDT administration. Because of this the GOP is getting worried that it is losing the impeachment fight. Polls indicate that the so called independent voters are turning against DDT. Now the House has subpoenaed members of OMB, the financial arm of the government. Should be interesting as it has to do with withholding money from Ukraine. A headline suggests that DDT is thinking of selling the lease on his hotel near the Whitehouse. We’ll see. It appears that Rudy G is in trouble and knows it. Did you notice that he has not been on TV at all recently shooting off his unhinged mouth? More orange jump suits, sigh! What a surprise, a court found that Betsy DeVos is contemptible. We all knew that, now it is official. Here’s an interesting wrinkle. Turkey’s Erdogan is demanding that DDT turn over the Kurdish military leader who happens to be visiting the US. Will he or won’t he? With DDT you never know. Impeach AG Barr who thinks he is DDT's lawyer. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

24 October: Vanity Fair said and it couldn’t have said it better. “Lindsey Graham introducing Resolution to Permanently Attach Lips to DDT’s Ass” . Meanwhile, Ivanka Trump has taken credit for the success of Quantum Computing under her father’s administration. I’m so glad that DDT understand all this quantum stuff at the gut level (burp)! DDT is claiming that Article 2 of the constitution permits him to do whatever he wants whenever he wants. What a crock for a crook. Now Barr in the guise of the justice department is starting a criminal investigation of the investigation into DDT and the Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Confused? It’s cover DDT’s butt time. And who better than DDT’s toilet paper AG, Barr. Flash news: DDT is ordering the federal government to stop reading the New York Times and Washington Post to save tax payer money for obtaining fake news. What fun. DDT unravels.

23 October: Rise up you “human scum”. You know who you are, since DDT has clearly informed any Republican that has negative thoughts about the “king”. You who are “Never Trump” Republicans have been cast out of the human race, or at least the white bigoted climate denier portion of the human race. Hold your head high for you are the saviors of the US and our system of government with honor. Today, the GOP congressmen stormed the closed-dooor hearings and broke through the door to disrupt everything for a few hours. Good circus, but lousy show. The hearings will become public after a while, much to your embarrassment. To quote The Independent, “Matt Gaetz and his Coalition of the Stupid stormed impeachment proceedings to 'demand transparency”. Stupid because over 40 Republicans already have full access to the transcripts and there are Republican members of the committee. Perhaps FOX news and their true believers will appreciate the disruption. DDT has a new excuse for withholding funds, namely, that Ukraine didn’t know about it, so it must be OK. BS, it is not supported by the known facts as DDT said himself earlier. Now DDT has lifted sanctions on Turkey after the damage and carnage is over and control of the area has been gifted to the Russians. What a deal maker is DDT. Finally, Joe, you have broken through the noise barrier and told the truth that DDT doesn’t give a damn about the middle class and is squandering a strong economy give to him by Obama. DDT is railing against the restrictions imposed by the constitution. Fake constitution, he's shouting, "Jefferson and Franklin would never have written those clauses".  Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

22 October: More unravelling for DDT with fresh testimony from the US Ukraine ambassador, William Taylor, detailing the demand for investigations by Ukraine’s president in exchange for aid and military help against Russia. And speaking of Russia, in Syria, the Russians have now rolled into territory formerly occupied by the US and Kurds in a deal with Turkey. So much for US influence in the middle east and elsewhere. It is embarrassing to be part of a country represented by an idiot, DDT. The news organization Bloomberg has a too kind headline, “Trump isn’t Putin’s puppet. He’s just unfit for office”. They got at least the 2nd part right, while the first part is still up for grabs. I do not know who is the anonymous author of the forthcoming book, “A Warning”, but based on a previously published New York Times op-ed by the author, it should be very damaging to DDT. It has DDT furious, since it is written by an administration insider who is infuriatingly unknown to DDT. This also means that more material will surface as the insider watches and records events as they unfold. This is sort of DDT’s “Deep Throat” from the Nixon era. On the other side of the pond, Brexit has stalled again leaving BoJo with his head in the sand. What next? OMG. DDT’s son Eric has ripped into political families that enrich themselves. I guess the steam cleared off his bathroom mirror this morning. Good play DDT, Iraq just announced the US troops crossing from Syria into Iraq are not welcome and cannot stay. It’s so good to have friends and allies, isn’t it DDT. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

21 October: Canada’s Trudeau squeaked by and will remain in power. That’s a pretty good thing compared to DDT. Another Ukraine diplomat is scheduled to testify at the impeachment hearings, William Taylor, who quit over the suspending aid in order to investigate Biden and the non-existent server. At least Schiff on a party line vote was cleared of being censured, a republican move to distract from the stupid criminal behavior of DDT. Tulsi Gabbard is not a willing Russian agent, but is being used as such by the Russians to sow discord in our election process. Some of her views favor Russian interests, but not on purpose. DDT is now saying that Israel and Jorden asked the US to leave troops in Syria and that he is prepared to take military action against Turkey if they do not stop. Way to go DDT. You’ve taken a stable situation and turned it into a nightmare. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know.

20 October: Hospitality DDT, not president. Renting the country out to foreign interests is his little schtick. Unfortunately, he had to give up the G7 meeting at his Doral club, so sad. What a loss. No free advertising for his failing club. But then again, no foreign money pouring into his company. Good for the US. Mulvaney is in hot water from both sides after admitting his boss has violated the law and the constitution of the US. He tried walking backwards and tripped over his own shoelaces. The Chris Wallace (Fox news of all places) pilloried Mulvaney who roundly deserved it. DDT has been tweeting up a storm of lies and obfuscations about the ongoing impeachment inquiry, calling Schiff and Pelosi names and putting forth false narrative that includes shifting times of events and outright manufacturing things that never happened. The big claim is that Pelosi started the impeachment inquiry before the transcript was made available. The truth is that it was two days later. But then, what is truth among Republicans. It is like the red queen in Alice’s adventures, "truth is whatever I say it is" (not quite a quote). Of course, we have the Turkey debacle that is still playing out. For this one, even military commanders retired and still serving are speaking out about the consequences and idiocy of DDT’s actions. The Kurds are evacuating a zone needed by Turkey, but not as large as Turkey might like. This will lead to renewed fighting. What will DDT do about it? Perhaps write another insulting letter to Erdogan. Oh well, just sit back and watch the show. Impeachment will probably occur in January or February. It cannot come too soon.

19 October: Finally, the masses get it. No not here in the US, but in the UK. Mass demonstrations for another vote on Brexit. They finally realized that they were fed a pile of BS as part of a disinformation campaign before the first referendum. As it stands now, there is no EU deal, just an unstructured rupture of trading and travelling. Way to go BoJo. Oh Goodie. A headline reads “DDT’s sea of troubles deepens”. Of course, the Hill doesn’t use DDT (which is mightily appropriate). Between Syria and Ukraine DDT is in up to his knees in horse manure and slowly sinking. The bad smell has reached the Senate where some Republican senators are starting to hold their noses. The White House has gone into damage control mode in their usual chaotic way with DDT’s gut leading the way. Good luck. Think Nixon and coverup. In Turkey, DDT apparently sent a very insulting letter to Erdogan asking him not to be a fool. That seemed like expert advice after all, since it was coming from one with many years of non-professional practice. Best if you went peacefully, DDT, but it’s probably not going to happen. Kick DDT out of the White House and arrest him at the gate. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know.

18 October: You can almost hear the yarn unravelling from the smothering blanket of this administration. Person after person is coming forward to tell what they know. The best was Nick Mulvaney talking in front of reporters telling them, yes indeed, there was a “quid pro quo” in DDTs’ dealings with Ukraine. Get used to it. More and more Republican Senators are having severe doubts about continued support for DDT. Impeachment and possible conviction is looking more likely. The Syria situation with the Kurds and Turkey is not working very well. The loosely written DDT-Pence deal is not being upheld by Turkey. It was only a 5 day truce anyway, not much of a deal from our “Master Negotiator and Deal Maker”. The real problem is nnot on what is happening today, but in what is likely to happen as ISIS is reestablished and as Iran has a stringer foothold in Syria. It is likely that Israel will be attacked, and a wider war will start. Will DDT come to the aid of Israel, who knows (perhaps Jared knows). Interesting, the immigration situation is heating up again with Mexicans not increasingly showing up at the border for asylum. This defeats the “apply for asylum in a 3rd country” before applying in the US. There are approximately 1 million asylum cases pending in the US and little being done to expedite the process. Building the wall is not going to help, since these people are showing up at official border crossing sites. What a failure is DDT’s policy. It is totally out of control with the needed resources being denied. Plus the stupids cannot think out of the box and reverse the process to deal with the most recent cases first as a deterrent.

16 October: The stable genius had a meltdown and temper tantrum, kicking his heels on the carpet. Pelosi and company left forthwith as any sane person would. The DDT administration is coming to an end. The only question is just how the end will arrive. Today DDT managed to lie about Syria over and over in just 4 minutes. The real question is, did he even recognize the lies, or does he believe his own crap. Lizzie is cruising promising impossible things to the public, and she knows it. A revolution in health care is going to be a disaster. Much better is making Medicare available to anyone that wants it and let it compete with private insurance. Between her Medicare ideas, wall street punishment, and wealth taxes, Lizzie will leave a lot of people not wanting any part of her. I won’t vote for her in a primary but will vote for the turkey (sandwich) in the general election. In Syria things are getting worse with the Kurds being slaughtered by the Turks with Russia trying to step in between. Sad state of affairs until DDT is gone. Meanwhile, DDT’s taxes look funny with property evaluations for banks and for paying taxes disagreeing in a way that appears to be fraud. In DDT’s case, fraud is good for the country. Get rid of the crook. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

15 October: DDT is fuming that John Bolton is behind the leaks. He well may be, and if so, he’s doing a public service to get that incompetent fool out of the white house. DDT is still obstructing the impeachment investigation even though Congress has the power to compel talking to the committees. Keep it up DDT and follow Nixon down the garden path. Nor Rudy is defying the congressional subpoena for documents related to the Ukraine case. Keep it up Rudy, you too can enjoy the free room and board along with a fine orange suit. Now Russia is in the key US outposts that DDT has us abandon in Syria. When Israel gets attacked, will DDT be there? Who knows. With DDT as a friend, look for a knife in yur back. Mike Pence is also refusing documents. This should be funs as the season goes on. BoJo is bordering on a Brexit deal at a crucial stage. Interesting, but we will see when it occurs. The bad news is that Biden is still sliding relative to Lizzie. If she wins the nomination, I will vote for the turkey sandwich over DDT even if the Turkey’s first name is Lizzie. Got to get him out of the presidency and into more comfortable quarters (a form of public housing). Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

14 October: If you listen carefully you can hear the administration unravelling like a cheap sweater. The ship is sinking, but the rats are still onboard. Don’t you love mixed metaphors? Anyone with character is testifying in front of the house committees. The question is will DDT make it to 2020. I suspect he will be protected by the gutless wonders of the Republican controlled Senate. If anyone is suspected of treason, it should be DDT himself for selling the country out to Russia and Syria. My favorite, Rudy G looks like he may be going down except for the possible defense of senility. Either way, he needs help. DDT has a nutcase working for him, but I will give DDT credit, he knows when to throw a colleague under the bus. DDT is a man you do not want as a friend. Right now, it is just more of the same, with DDT bleating how he is under attack for the greatest policy choices ever made. It’s a deep state trying to undo the election when we all know that DDT has the smartest gut in the world, burp. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

13 October: Poor DDT. He hated the doctored film showing him killing news media people. At least the fake was labelled fake unlike the contemptuous lies he constantly tells. Hunter Biden has renounced all future foreign contacts related to earning a living. Now let’s get DDT’s sons to do the same. Oh, that’s different bleats the Trumpet. The biggest thing going right now is DDT’s blunder in pulling out of Syria and leaving the whole thing open to Assad’s criminal army and Russia. Even Putin has called DDT a dummy for his moves. Best thing to happen is a major war between Syria and Turkey with Russia trying to pick sides. Sorry, this is not a best thing, it would be an expensive tragedy. Other US allies are now in the position of doubting the value of an alliance with the US as long as DDT is in charge. Good deal! Rudy G. is under investigation. Orange suit for Rudy. YES!

12 October: Good. Prosecutors are looking at Rudi G. and his lobbying efforts after the arrest of his two Ukrainian associates. No charges yet, other than mentally losing it (currently not a crime). Rudi G. has a way out of whatever happens by pleading senility and getting himself into long-term care. One thing pops out, Rudi G never registered (FARA) as a foreign lobbyist even though he certainly did work for the Ukraine. He’ll make a great jailhouse lawyer. Poor Pelosi. Apparently, she is a hater of the US for looking into the misdeeds of DDT (impeachment inquiry), which basically is a part of her job description. But, then DDT’s gut tells him otherwise. According to DDT, “So now they are after the legendary ‘crime buster’ and greatest Mayor in the history of NYC, Rudy Giuliani. He may seem a little rough around the edges sometimes, but he is also a great guy and wonderful lawyer. Such a one-sided Witch Hunt going on in USA. Deep State. Shameful!” Read it and weep, such is our current democracy. Meanwhile the DDT appointed SEC commissioners are about to gut the Wall Street whistleblower program put in place after the 2008 crash and bailout. It apparently interferes with lending money (remember 2008 anyone). The comedy never stops until we throw DDT out of office in 2020. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns.

11 October: The last sane person, Shepard, is leaving Fox news. Well, I guess there is at least one semi-sane person left. Now DDT has his state broadcasting system like any tinpot wanna-be dictator. Whoa…Turkey attacked US Special Forces (by mistake?). It will unravel, the former ambassador to Ukraine is going to testify to the House committee about how she was pressured to leave by a concerted campaign (led by Rudi G) against her. I heard some of DDT’s Minneapolis rally this morning. That lying B sure was ugly. The only thing as ugly were the stupid screaming people at the rally. Stupid for being “had” and cheering the idiot with his small hand in their pockets.  Too tired to write more of the same. Wake up America and vote the bum out.

10 October: Well, some good news for the US. It may be that Rudy G is going down the drain along with his criminally charged Ukrainian buddies. Illegal campaign contributions are not a joke and who knows what else these 2 bozos engaged in that the prosecutors want to investigate. Go Rudi! Go past GO, do not collect $200, and go straight to jail (Monopoly game rules). Woke up this morning to C-Span broadcasting DDT’s campaign stop. Yuk. But, it did wake me up. The rant was overpowering with lies flowing like rancid water. Get rid of this bum and save America and our democracy. Now DDT is doing the “Lock him up” bit on Biden when it is DDT that really needs to be locked up and never heard from again. US-China trade talks are about to resume as are additional tariffs. As usual DDT does not know when to back off, even if only temporarily. Meanwhile, his betrayal of our ally in Syria, the Kurds, is resulting in Turkey’s raging dictator killing civilians and driving the very people that helped us so much against ISIS out of their homes and out of the little bit of territory they hold. DDT is going to cause the thousands of ISIS captives to be released on the world again to start the atrocities that were all to public just a few years ago. November 2020 cannot come too soon.

9 October: Wow DDT has finally got his history right. He stated that the Kurds did not help us in Normandy during World War 2. That is so true. I didn’t realize this. We fought that battle without them lifting a finger. There is a small secret though that DDT wouldn’t know. The Kurds have no country and at that time no army. But, don’t tell DDT that. He finally got one thing right, half-assed right, but that’s his personal best. He needs an atta-boy certificate of achievement. Meanwhile Turkey is in Syria bombing civilians and destroying cities just like any sociopath president would do. Erdogan’s our man (according to DDT). DDT promised to destroy his economy if he did what he is doing. So far nothing from the ”Big Gut”. Right now, the country is facing a constitutional crisis. DDT, in the office of President, is refusing to cooperate with the House probe that the constitution clearly says they can and should do. The stonewalling is a clear message that impeachment should proceed. The constitution does not call for the House to take a vote on an investigation for impeachment, just on impeachment itself after the investigation. Oversight of the executive branch is clearly congress’ duty. Obstruction of justice is impeachable in and of itself as Nixon found out. Perhaps this is the beginning of the end.  Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin?

8 October: What a surprise. DDT has officially refuse to cooperate with the impeachment inquiry. He’s claiming that the House committee is a “Kangaroo court” and he will not share anything. Nixion did this and it was the beginning of the end. Someone said, history does not repeat it self exactly, but it sure does rhyme. DDT has not backed off from abandoning our allies in Syria, the Kurds. For DDT it’s all about money and his personal gain. I cannot imagine the full consequences in Syria as ISIS people get free to regroup and attack. The stupidity of DDT is better than anyone before him. He deserves this superlative. Meanwhile the Supremes are bickering about the meaning of sex and whether it is OK to discriminate. Next will come abortion. One hopes that Roberts will see the need to protect the country from extremism from either the left or right. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

6 October: Senator Ron Johnson sort of typifies pusillanimous Republican

7 October: Well, fearless leader has done it again. He got rolled by Turkey into a cowardly stance akin to betrayal relative to our alliance with the Kurds in Syria. With a friend like DDT, who needs enemies. Then, he has the gall to say that with his extremely high intelligence he will punish Turkey so severely if they do anything he does not like. That should strike fear into Erdogan. What an idiot. We really need to get rid of DDT before he betrays everyone. More important that DDT right now is the Supreme court and the 2 justices DDT appointed after McConnell derailed the nomination for Garland. The issues are big ones this term including the rights to abortion and sexual orientation rights (Title 7). The impeachment hearings are now on the “fast track” according to Pelosi. Good. We need to get this over with and get on to the real election issues. If you want DDT to have another term, then Lizzie W is your candidate for the Democrats.

6 October: Senator Ron Johnson sort of typifies pusillanimous Republicans. He had an interview with Meet the Press today and was incoherently spluttering and shouting conspiracy theories. One knows that he knows he’s spouting BS but is so afraid of DDT that he cannot perform is duty as an elected representative of the American people. This crook in the White House is so blatant that anyone should want him out of office. Even Susan Collins (Maine) splutters along making like she’s thinking about things but making excuses for DDT. She must be defeated in 2020. You can contribute to her political rival and get rid of a hypocrite. Now there is a 2nd whistleblower corroborating the first and talking about additional problems. Republican response, “Who Cares”. Well, you may care come 2020 and all of you comatose bums are gone. That’s a riot. DDT is calling for Romney’s impeachment, totally ignorant of the fact that Senators cannot be impeached, or I Romney’s Utah case, cannot even be recalled. Plus, Romney is elected for 6 years and will be around ling after 2020. I almost forgot, Brexit is on the menu shortly. More interesting stuff courtesy of BoJo. Article I just read says that Bob Woodward claims that Republican Senators are choking on the DDT situation. Good! Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

5 October: Mitt Romney may be a somewhat misguided overly wealthy Republican, but at least on the appalling DDT, he and I agree. What DDT did and is doing is truly awful in contacting foreign governments to find dirt on possible political opponents. Today DDT went after Mitt in his usual fashion with calumny and vitriol, a sound and fury meaning absolutely nothing. Just nasty for the sake of being nasty – DDT’s idea of revenge. The last couple of days have been damning for DDT, lots of text messages DDT wishes never existed, asking for election interference, help from China, and lots more stuff. The Ukraine scandal is only growing with each passing hour. Apparently, he asked China’s leader for help with Biden and Lizzie W, and in exchange he’d stay quiet about Hong Kong. So far DDT has not issued one negative word about China’s role in Hong Kong. Let’s see what comes out of that. The Ukraine ambassador got sacked because she was not enthusiastic about DDT asking for campaign help, which is part of the whistleblower complaint. And, or course Rudi G is up to his wattled neck in dishing out muck based on falsehoods. Birds of a feather lie together, as the saying goes. Here’s DDT’s words, “I would think that if they were honest about it, they’d start a major investigation into the Bidens. It’s a very simple answer. They should investigate the Bidens ... and by the way, likewise, China should start an investigation into the Bidens. Because what happened to China is just about as bad as what happened with Ukraine”. What the hell, is he crazy? The answer is YES. You’ve got to go, DDT, gracefully a la Nixon, or by force from impeachment or the election. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine?

4 October: DDT is at it again, trying to make criminal activity seem as just normal procedure. Asking a foreign government to find problems with your political opponent’s family is being made to sound normal. First Ukraine and now China added to the mix, and all in public, well mostly except for a failed attempt at a cover-up by hiding the documents on a highly classified server. The spineless Republicans quaking in fear that DDT might go after them in their primaries, are refusing to act in the nations interest by denying that anything has occurred. I would hat to see this become a common tactic of either political party. Setting this as an acceptable behavior is dangerous to our country. I do not know what we expected. DDT has been a crook and a cheat all his life. Why would we expect him to change? Impeach him or defeat DDT in 2020. The good thing is that people are starting to turn on DDT and disclose the horror in the White House. Both his aides and State Department people are now offering testimony to the crooked dealings. The end is near. Nixon redux. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin?

3 October: Calling China calling China. Do you have dirt on DDT, perhaps a golden stream tape. Perhaps Putin gave you a copy. If so, put it on the web. Oh wait, I’m not President, I can ask for help without betraying my country. DDT has now called on China to investigate Biden. Good play dummy. Just throwing gasoline on the fire. This tactic might have worked in private, but as President it’s a path to disaster and you are too dumb to realize it. Volker has now testified in secret, but I suspect that the testimony is not a good thing for DDT. Let’s hear the mini leaks. DDT says he does not care about Republican concerns about the whistleblowers’ safety. How did we get this clown in office, and how do we get him out? Preferably before 2020, but certainly from the election. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know.

2 October: DDT is threatening to sue everyone. Good. Go for it idiot. If you actually do sue, remember that you do so under oath and lying can get you in trouble. Since you appear to not being able to tell the difference between lies and truths, it could be “game over”. Did he or didn’t he propose alligators at the southern border. It’s stupid enough so that there is truthiness in the idea. Is there anyone out there that has knowledge of DDT being extra stupid about alligators? Good for DDT, he’s spinning and spitting and investigating every conspiracy theory about the Biden and his son. There’s not much new today, just more of the same as yesterday. The State Department is refusing to cooperate, but an IG spokesman is going to testify anyway along with the recently resigned Ukrainian negotiator. Meanwhile DDT is calling Schiff and the whistleblower traitors mixed with thinly veiled threats. I hope Bernie makes a speedy recovery. I disagree with Bernie very strongly, but he is an honest person misguidedly trying to help. Enough for today. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum.

1 October 2019: The Twit-in-chief has let loose a flatulent stream of tweets, setting a record for sheer numbers of lies, distractions, and conspiracy theories. DDT is unbalanced and scared. As before, when DDT leaves office I will happily contribute to the purchase of a fine orange suit. His henchmen are also fighting a rear-guard defense (CYA) for themselves and the president. Pompeo shrilly declared that the Democrats were “bullying” diplomats in trying to find out what was going on. The public is starting to swing against DDT, striking fear into his gut (normally I would say heart, but I prefer this to be evidence based). Now more than 50% support impeachment. When this number rises during the next few months, out brave Republican representatives will finally come out from their turtle shells and turn on DDT. The shift in public opinion is part of what brought Nixon down. Perhaps it will work here as well. Barr is off and running on a counter-investigation to the Mueller report enlisting the aid of foreign governments, Ukraine, Italy, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The theory is that a deep state plot tried to swing the election to Clinton. This makes no sense at all. If anything, the FBI hurt Clinton with leaks on the email server and protected DDT by keeping the investigation secret. While the FBI is professional, it has grown increasingly conservative and somewhat worrisome. I agree with a statement by Rep. Maxine Waters, DDT needs to be put into solitary confinement. I would say sooner rather than later. DDT is still playing with delusion showing maps that falsely indicate that almost the entire country supports him, just like he had the biggest crowd ever at his inauguration. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court

30 September: Oh Goodie. There’s more than one instance of DDT asking a foreign government to further his campaign for President. It looks like Australia was involved by asking that they help Barr investigate the origins of the Mueller report on Russian activities in our elections. Now Rudy G is being subpoenaed for documents related to the Ukraine scandal. That man, Rudy G. needs to be held to account. He gets away with things by pretending incoherent insanity and contradicting himself over periods of two minutes. It also turns out that the Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo listened in on the call to Ukraine and now is also served with a House subpoena. Too bad he did not have the courage of the whistleblower. In both cases, DDT attempted to restrict access to the phone calls and documents surrounding the calls. Yeah, the technical term is cover-up. It is getting ugly, and the people around DDT are starting to fall. Rudi G. has said that he will not cooperate with Schiff in the House investigation. Perhaps he should be served with a slow bake in a small cell somewhere where he can test DDT’s future orange suit. DDT has doubled down in the threat of a civil war if he is subject to an impeachment. He needs to lose power now. Even his illustrious VP Pence could do a better job as long as his wife was in the room in case a woman walked in. Democrats listen up; No debates without Tax Returns. Ignore the bum. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

29 September: DDT has gone and done it in a fit of panic (I assume) or just his usual twitter fit. He threatened civil war if impeached. Even if unlikely in the extreme except, perhaps, for a small cadre of people with no common sense. These people might take weapons and kill people before being brought under control. The sheer danger of the president saying such words is .and should, be an impeachable offense all by themselves. Civil war threats, accusing people of treason, threatening harm to the whistleblower, and the nefarious deeds recorded in the whistle blower’s report should be more than enough to impeach and convict. If only the Republican party served the country instead of being a shill for DDT. It’s time for the Republican party to spilt into a New Republican party of conservative patriots with the interest of fair government moved to the fore. DDT is asking for Adam Schiff to be indicted for treason for mocking DDT. No Donald, it might have been in bad taste in a House hearing, but it should be applauded for content and never done again in a serious hearing. Of course, one could look back at some of the republican lead hearings, and perhaps find a wee bit of fault for shenanigans. There is no need to parody a living parody that is DDT. He speaks garbage for himself, garbage and lies. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

28 September: Since I last wrote on the 27th, it appears that the DDT administration at the State Department is reopening the Clinton email “scandal” by retroactively classifying everyone’s emails that they might have sent to Clinton. This has two effects. One is to deflect the impeachment investigation from the public mind and two is to make it difficult for senior diplomats to return to the State Department under a Democratic administration, since this will affect their clearances. The State Department is currently in turmoil as the DDT scandal is spreading into upper reaches of both State and Justice. This is one of those cases where we must hold out breathes (and our noses) to see how all this unravels. As with Nixon, one of the big things that may bring DDT down is the attempted coverup by trying to hide the records of phone calls to Putin and Ukraine on a high security classified computer. It was only the whistleblower’s complaint that gave anyone the key to where these documents were hidden. There’s plenty of stuff to detest DDT about, but this may be his undoing. One can only hope the damage he has caused can be undone. Just imagine, if the first 4-year term was this bad, how would a racist, polluting, fear mongering, spendthrift, lawless, and possibly traitorous presidency go during a second 4 years. Pelosi has hit the nail directly with her statement on Barr in that he has gone rogue. He seems to think he is DDT’s lawyer instead of the attorney general of the United States. The rest of the cabinet is similarly fixated on kissing up, except for perhaps Perry at Energy, and even he is not protesting the bad energy policy of DDT. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

September 27: I am speechless. Speechless about the mess right in front of our eyes. Speechless that there are still Republicans in the House and Senate that back this crook and charlatan. The cover up does remind me of Nixon and the Watergate tapes, except that Nixon was not a president out to screw the country, he was just mentally ill with paranoia. This president, DDT, is out for himself at every turn. He stoked his ego revealing secrets in a White House meeting with the Russians that endangered a source within ISIS. It goes on and on. This president is as close to a traitor as you can be, and perhaps has stepped over the line. The latest has people from the State Department and Justice Department involved in a plot to undermine the 2020 elections by digging up false dirt in Joe Biden through extortion of the recently elected Ukrainian president. If this were a TV script, it would be a badly written one involving improbable scenarios and bad lines for the actors. Anne Applebaum (WP) has it right. This president and his cabinet have left a stain on the history of the United States destroying the reputation of the US for fair government, an independent judiciary and justice department, and a foreign policy that recognizes friends and treats them with fair respect. He’s a president that destroys policy guided by strong science just to satisfy his screaming base. DDT has increased the debt owed by the US government to the point that this country may not be able to afford the changes needed to run a modern just society. The next elected President has got an almost impossible job on his hands to clean up the mess. DDT defines the meaning of swamp. What else did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

26 September: This time it is good that DDT is both stupid and egotistical. His release of the incomplete transcript and the whistleblower’s complaint to exonerate himself has backfired. I’m sure it will fire up his 30% base and fire up his campaign rallies, but the outcome in the House and Senate may be a disaster for DDT. With all this out in the open, it should be DDT's beginning of the end. The Director of National Intelligence testifying was evasive as to his own opinions, but it was pretty clear that even he though DDT was way out of line. Then there is the loose cannon Rudi G. Who knows what will pour out of that demented mind in the next few weeks? Stay tuned to comedy central 1600. More later, if I have the energy. What did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

25 September: Good play DDT, you revealed a phony possible deal with China to pop the stock market. It popped alright, but it will fall just as quickly when your overactive lying imagination proves as useless as your brain (read gut). Why anyone believes anything you say is beyond me. Dealing with you is like wrestling with a pig in mud, the mud gets all over both of you, only the pig likes it. Ignore DDT and what he promises, only look at the bad deeds. The phone call has been likened to a Mafia conversation with a victim. Nothing overt is said, but the threat is understood by all sides in the conversation. The president of Ukraine, today sitting next to DDT at the UN, said that he felt no pressure. Yeah, I would say that too when sitting next to the mob boss. Both DDT and RG (Rudi) attempted to engage Barr, but Barr denies being contacted (could be, since there is no evidence yet). Perhaps this is the beginning of the end for the orange terror. The true end will come in 2020, since impeachment, even if successful, will probably not result in 60 votes in the Senate to convict. That would require craven Republicans to be in support of the United States and its form of government. Republicans have become the pary of political and monetary corruption on a grand scale. On the Joe Biden and son’s alleged scandal, there appears to be no evidence of anything wrong on the part of either person. The only crazy thing was hiring Biden’s son in the first place by Ukraine, since he was not an expert in anything related to the business. If the reason was to gain influence with Joe Biden, then the Ukrainians got nothing. That does not seem to stop DDT from lying about it or lying about anything else he feels is a benefit to himself. What did DDT extort from Ukraine? Now, we almost know. What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

24 September: Finally, the House is getting serious about going after the criminal we have in the White House and not relying on the AG Barr to be an honest broker for the United States. Perhaps you cannot indict a sitting President, but you sure can investigate and impeach him. What effect it has on the election, who knows. His cheering squad is immune to the facts, but the so-called undecided are not immune. Those plus the Democrat voters should be enough to Throw the Bum Out (TBO). Even the whistleblower is willing to risk his or her career to testify in front of Congress. This brave person must be heard. DDT willingly and willfully breaks the law and established customs anytime he does not get his way. He feels secure in the fact that the Supreme Court is also his toady as is the Senate. Sad but true. DDT just gave a talk at the UN pushing for Nationalism over global cooperation. The idiot does not realize that this is what led to 2 world wars, and is leading to a possible war with Iran. Hopefully, he will be out in 2020 and we can get back to international cooperation and containment of the few nationalistic countries left on the earth (China, Iran, etc.). There is more going on that is just details in the face of the current outrage. The details can wait. What did DDT extort from Ukraine? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

23 September: It’s bogus dummy, it’s bogus DDT, quit lying just to make yourself look good to your indiscriminate base. This one may politically kill you because you have attempted to coerce a foreign country, Ukraine, to investigate a political opponent possibly running against you in 2020. It’s blatant criminality. The only protection you have are the spineless immoral Republicans in the Senate, and that may break. DDT is so transparent and so sneaky, starting a conspiracy theory about Biden to distract attention from his blatant lying criminal behavior. He needs to be impeached, even if the spineless Senate will not convict. Even Pelosi is getting close to going after DDT. Well, at least our allies Germany, UK, and France now blame Iran for the attacks. That’s good, but what are we going to do about it? Meanwhile the UK is spinning out of control with “BoJo” as the Brits call him, lying and totally ineffective. What did DDT extort from Ukraine? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

22 September: What a weasel. DDT now admits he talked about Biden with the Ukrainian president and about Biden’s relationship to Ukrainian corruption. This, even though there is no evidence of any corrupt behavior. There must be consequences for asking a foreign government for help in an election process. Get rid of DDT, you spineless republicans. DDT and India’s Modi are pals at a Texas rally. Once again DDT sidles up to an autocratic leader, even if a democratically elected leader. Lizzie is ahead in the Iowa polls. If she wins, I will be voting for a turkey sandwich with the initials EW in the general election. She’s got a plan for everything and no real means to pay for it without huge tax increases. She is blathering that only the rich will get hit. Not true at all. The middle class will get walloped. Other than that, not much happened this Sunday other than Pence shipping multiple cars to an island where cars are forbidden. Arrogance knows no limits. What did DDT extort from Ukraine? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

21 September: The republican party is disgusting. We have a president, dumb Donald Trump, that is violating our form of democratic government with impunity (so far) and the Republicans line up behind his butt like dogs. This latest, with Ukraine, should be enough to trigger a response from the Republican controlled Senate to throw him out of office, especially with all the other illegal things he has done. Instead it is cowardice on display with no thought of country. I never thought our form of government could be jeopardized so easily by a power-hungry immoral demagogue. It is time, Pelosi, to let an impeachment investigation go forward even if the cowardly Senate Republicans will not convict. Fortunately, the country will have another crack at getting rid of the would-be dictator in 2020. The scary thing is if people do not come out and vote for a Democrat to throw the criminal president out of office. If it goes to the election, and I were Biden, or whichever candidate faces him, I would refuse to debate unless at least 7 years of tax returns were released first. Let DDT fume and fuss, it’s worth it. What did he extort from Ukraine? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

20 September: The biggest slightly hidden news is that DDT is sending US troops to Saudi Arabia, basically putting them in harm’s way. The question is motive. DDT is an unknowable chicken-hawk. On the campaign front, it strongly appears that DDT was strong-arming the president of Ukraine to investigate Biden’s son as part of his 2020 campaign for a second term. Right now, Biden leads DDT in the polls by a considerable margin. I’d vote for a turkey sandwich in place of DDT in 2020, so I hope he loses big time. Get the orange suit ready for the big turkey with a cut-out for his hyper-gut. Then there is Rudi G., the big free running mouth disconnected from what used to be his brain. For anyone else, his mouthing off would be the signal senior-care intervention. Along with Rudi G, DDT’s response was incoherent, except for his shout of “fake news”. Yeah, right! Oh wow, DDT is calling the relationship with North Korea’s Kim the best thing for the US. Just keep firing those missiles into the ocean where they can’t hurt anyone. It looks like Taiwan is being diplomatically isolated as even the small Pacific Island nations dump Taiwan in favor of mainland China. Good news is that Walmart has banned e-Cigs, all e-Sigs. Now if only other shops follow suit we can get the blooming youth epidemic under control. Of course, California is suing the feds to regain control over emissions and gas mileage. I cannot believe that DDT is taking the dumb line that dirtier cars will save lives. We’ve go to get rid of this jackass in 2020. What did he extort from Ukraine? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

19 September: Ah, a Supreme court lawyer has claimed, worry not, the truth will come out. This is about the whistleblower’s claims that DDT promised a foreign leader, probably Putin, something that should not be promised. The bottom line is this appears to be abuse of power. DDT can de-classify anything he wants, but not with political impunity. OK! The house has passed a bill to avoid a government shutdown for 2 months. The bill is now sent to the Senate. We’ll see if they pass it and whether DDT vetoes it. With dummy in the white house, there is no telling what will happen. Interesting. Tillerson is claiming that Netanyahu “played” DDT with misinformation on several occasions to get favorable treatment from the US, and our dummy-in-chief (DIC) refused to take advice on the matters. His HUGE gut knew better. The US is now seeking a peaceful resolution over Saudi attack. What will we give away for this one? What did he promise Putin? Down with the clown.

18 September: Russia is after DDT for increasing sanctions on Iran. Can he punish Iran for attacking Saudi Arabia without starting a war? And, what is the role of Russia. This situation is fraught, and we have a president with a very low effective IQ trying to deal with a delicate situation. Plus, Putin has the "Golden Shower Tapes". Stay tuned. The fed did lower interest rates effectively and the stock market responded with a limp handshake. On other fronts, DDT followed through with his stupid idea to prevent California from having cleaner cars. Hopefully the car manufactures will realize that to stay competitive globally, they have to ignore DDT and keep on improving gas mileage. Unexpected, the polls show both Joe and Lizzie pulling ahead of the rest of the field (bye Bernie). Hmmm Texas is in for a wash cycle with tropical storm Imelda with no spin cycle to follow. Incredible, a teenager was being attacked and the stabbed while others stood around taking pictures and doing nothing to help. What kind of world is this? Headline: Former Bush staffer urges his fellow Latinos to vote DDT out of office. YES! Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

17 September: Uh Oh. Mike Pompeo is heading to Saudi Arabia to discuss a possible response to Iran’s complicity in the bombing of their oil facility. With DDT in charge, this could lead to something big. More sanctions, anyone, perhaps on pretzels. Starts with a P so it probably has something to do with petroleum in DDT’s brilliant gut. Sorry DDT, just making fun of you in my usual good spirited way. Don’t take offense oh great orange one. New York has one of its finest orange suits just made for you. Lasts years. Corey Lewandowski, a light bulb challenged man, just created an incoherent uproar for the Democrats in a House hearing. What else did you expect. Site him for contempt. Or better yet, hold him in contempt, and kick his butt out of there. DDT is after California in a big way. DDT wants dirtier cars and more global warming by going after California’s desires on gas mileage. Stupid gut again. The real thing is undoing Obama’s legacy at every turn. Poor DDT, the late Cokie Roberts never treated him nicely. Tsk tsk. Time to get rid of the orange turkey in 2020. Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

16 September: The one thing about DDT that you can count on is that he will bluster but not follow through on his actions. An exception are the tariffs, but even there he has the wrong idea that the tariffs are an effective tool to punish China. The Iran attack on Saudi Arabia is the real problem. He blusters about that we could take military action and then explicitly does nothing. Doing something entails risk, and that is not DDT’s advantage. It looks kike Kavanaugh is ion the cross hairs again, at least according to the NYT article. Interesting to see how this turns out. Of course republicans are up in arms about the article instead of looking at the male slut we may have as a Supreme Court Justice. The pot boils on in the House of Representatives with the subpoena crises vs the White house. Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

15 September:  What is going on here?  I take couple of days off and the world is on the brink of a war.  Iran has bombed the Saudis and now the world is waitng to see what happenstrike  next.. For sure, oil prices are going up. Will DDT do anything? Who knows? With Bolton gone, nothing may happen with US troops, but the Sauis may strike on there own. And then there is Israel. Scary. This is brief, since I have limited access to the internet.. Back again. It looks like Kavenaugh is in the sexual harassment cross hairs again. Might have to impeach and convict the bugger. We need Democrats in all 3 branches so we can TBO. Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

12 September: The democratic “debate” went OK. Biden held his own and pretty much prevented his democratic rivals from taking advantage. The issues were the usual, and nothing much new was said. Pundits did their best to pull out new talking points. There were a few new snide remarks. One calling DDT a little man behind the curtain. Pathetic as humor goes. I suspect that Biden will remain at the top in the polls. His position on medical care is the most reasonable, allowing people to choose Medicare if they want to as a means of acquiring medical coverage. Meanwhile, Brexit grinds on with the UK outlining the likely consequences (ugly), and Johnson being warned to obey the newly passed no hard exit Brexit law. There is a new move afoot to solve California’s homeless problem by DDT. It seems to hinge on the Feds supplying temporary shelters and then forcing people off the streets. Sounds like typical DDT. It is not clear how you  can legally force people into shelters. Plus, DDT has cut the budget for the housing agency at the same time. This shows his sincerity to tackle the problem. Perhaps he can use some of the wall money for building shelters. Speaking of the wall, it appearsa that Mexico is getting overwhelmed with immigrants. I suspect the flood will continue at the southern border. The new rule requiring asylum seakers to apply for asylum in Mexico first is going to make Mexico’s problem worse. There will probably be a pile up at the US border. Part of this is DDT’s fault, because he cut aid money to the “triangle countries” when a more sensible policy would have been to increase that aid. But, then stupid is as stupid does. Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

11 September: Remembering 9/11 from 18 years ago makes it hard to write about DDT. As with most people, I remember exactly where I was when I heard on TV about the first crash into the twin towers and the total disbelief of the 2nd plane hitting the other tower followed by the Pentagon and the on-purpose crash into the Pennsylvania field. The tragedy still resonates and overshadows the clown as president. It was a time when we all came together with a common purpose. It’s sad to think we have come to the present state of a divided nation separated by hate of people different from ourselves. It is with sadness that I write about DDT making it even harder to obtain asylum in the US by denying work permits and making a rule that denies green cards and eventual citizenship to these same people when they need aid to eat an be housed. We got rid of one awful advisor, Bolton, now Miller has to go as well. It is so strange, the right wing ideolog Tucker Carlson is calling Bolton a leftist liberal. This is definitely an Alice in Wonderland (Through the Looking Glass) moment with the red queen (it is what I say it is). The weather forecast is a distraction that keeps distracting. Now Mulvaney has pushed NOAA to disavow scientists that forecast the storm’s real path but contradicted DDT. He’s got to go. Yeah, all of them! Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

10 September: Cool! One headline reads that John Bolton left because DDT would not let him start wars. There is no way to know if this is true or not, but it has the ring of “truthiness” to it. Whatever it is, I am glad to see that war hawk gone. It is probably true that Bolton is the reason we dropped the Iran agreement, backed out of the N. Korean talks, and have generally screwed around with our allies. I’m equally sure that the feckless DDT did not need much convincing and probably contributed to the unguided missile that represents our foreign and domestic policies. At least the idiocy is not confined to DDT. In the last couple of days, Wilbur Ross, the commerce secretary, has stuck both feet in his mouth with the weather scandal by telling NOAA employees that they would be fired if the corrected the president’s stupid error. Perhaps he will go down for this blunder. The Israeli PM is taking advantage of DDT being the president in announcing that he will unilaterally annex the Jordan valley. This is dumb on many fronts, if he actually goes beyond an election ploy and does annex the land. Apparently stupid is contagious. DDT has accomplished one thing and has done it very well. The number of medically uninsured has risen during the past 3 years. Way to go orange duck. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

9 September: Just listened to a DDT bleat about his asking for and then cancelling the meeting with the Taliban. According to DDT, he did this all by himself with no input from sycophant advisors. So whatever happens falls squarely on DDT’s O-so-wise gut. On the NOAA front, DDT’s administration is threatening to fire NOAA civil servants who contradict DDT on his magic weather forecasting abilities. Who says the magic marker is not more powerful than a scientist? Apparently, Trump’s campaign manager predicted over the weekend that the president’s family would become “a dynasty that will last for decades”. OMG. Are we being punished for sins committed? Not to fear. It is unlikely that this administration will last past Jan 2021. A federal court has reinstated an injunction for the whole US on DDT’s asylum ban requiring people trying to seek asylum on the US first do so in a third country. Way to go, the British Queen has approved a law banning a no-deal Brexit. Some sanity prevails. As usual, DDT is claiming ignorance (as if he has to prove that again) in that he has no knowledge of the Airforce using his hotel properties. Right! Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

8 September: DDT has absolutely no sense or sensibility. He planned the Taliban meeting on 9/11. Lucky for him, he cancelled the meeting for unrelated to 9/11 reasons. Now the Taliban is threatening revenge. Will DDT respond or fold? He’s treating foreign policy the way he acted on realty TV. No one knows. Meanwhile on the home front, NOAA management is throwing its professional scientist and forecasters under the but in regard to DDT’s ridiculous forecast of Dorian hitting Alabama. Kamala Harris laughed when her supporters called DDT mentally retarded, but then retracted claiming that she did not hear the statement. This is the 2nd time she did not hear the obvious. It looks like the MIT lab chief that accepted Epstein’s money is out. He tried to keep it secret, but it leaked. Sad, but true. The Impeach DDT movement gathers steam, but Nancy is still opposed. I suspect her political instincts are correct even though the dummy deserves to be humiliated. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

7 September: The biggest news is about Afghanistan and DDT’s backing out of talks with the Taliban. This is a case where I basically agree with him. The Taliban is in the middle of peace talks with the US but has simultaneously stepped up its attack on civilians and the Afghan government. Now a US soldier has been killed and the Taliban has claimed responsibility. These kinds of talks have become meaningless with a side that is completely ruthless in getting its way. Time to stop. The real question is what is next? An insistence on a cease fire or all-out war again? Only DDT knows and that is not comforting. More challenges on the republican side of the race for the presidency with former representative Mark Sanford entering the race. Might make the republican race more interesting. Of course, anything to get rid of the dummy-in-chief. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

6 September; The Bahamas as we know it is gone. It looks like a war zone. How that poor country is going to revive is beyond me. Certainly, a contribution will help a little. More hurricanes are in the Atlantic that could cause more devastation the season. The good news is that even republican senators are getting upset at moving 3.6 billion from the military to build a useless wall jut to make a political statement to the ignorant in DDT’s base. This should help him lose in 2020. DDT is blaming the news media for a jobs report that is less than expected. Whatever the news media has to do with that report I cannot fathom, except reporting the report. He’s accusing the media of stoking fears about a recession by reporting the truth. In DDT’s world, ignorance (of everyone else) is bliss. DDT is after the Fed chairman again. Says DDT, “Where did I find this guy?” He’s mad because Powell will not do what DDT wants when he wants it. The Fed chairman is doing his job properly with the interests of the country in mind not DDT’s re-election. We have got to oust the clown. Down with the clown. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

5 September: Now DDT has become a hurricane weather forecaster, a bad one at that. Drawing lines on a wether chart shoing th ehuricane going into ALabama.Consistency is his strong suit. Dumb always. The storm is mostly in the news, now pounding the Carolinas., but not as bad as feared. Vaping is killing more and more people. C’mon FDA regulate this stuff. It’s a drug being administered to produce known effects and it’s dangerous. Do your job! Bor-us J is still smiling and making jokes about Brexit. Can the sucker and roll back Brexit while you still have the chance. Otherwise you are going to depend on DDT making you a great deal. Good luck. Wow Senselessbrenner is retiring. I can’t believe we are going to lose a clown from the Senate. Looks like Bernie Sanders is promoting population control as part of managing climate change. The republicans are blowing it up out of proportion, even though politically Bernie touched a sensitive issue. All he really was talking about was making birth control available to women, all women. A sort of expanded right to choose. But, predictably, it is being interpreted as a plot to reduce the birthrate of people with darker skins. Stupid. Women should be able to control whether they get pregnant. Meanwhile DDT darned money from Puerto Rico’s recovery fund to pay for his wall. Mean! Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

4 September: Boring, that’s what today has been. Stock market was up a bit after being down a bit yesterday. DDT claimed that if not for his trade war with China, his wonderful economy would have had the DOW up another 10000 points, a 30% gain. Even if DDT is right, it shows what an idiot he is. He’s basically disrespecting his own economic moves. I’m sure tomorrow someone will politely remind him that it was stupid, and he will deny he ever said it. The new tariffs will hit middle class families hard, especially women with children. Al (the Bor-us) Johnson has lost another battle with his parliament in that he failed to push through a snap election. The real question is will parliament undo Brexit or at least the no-deal Brexit. Good deal, De Blasio is likely to drop out of running for President. The fewer on the stage the better. Lizzie and Byden will be on the stage together. There should be sparks. Another whopper, DDT says he had nothing to do with Pence staying at his resort. Might be true, who knows, but that would make Pence the Dunce a good handle. Of course, the big news is that the Pentagon is going to be diverting 3 billion dollars to start building the wall at the price of a number of construction projects deemed very necessary. The theory was that Congress will backfill the losses. Good luck with that one. Gun nuts are worried that universal background checks will keep them from arming their friends. My god just listen to that nonsense. If you can’t pass a background check, you should not have access. Finally, DDT has rolled back regulations on energy saving lightbulbs. He said, if old lightbulbs were good for my father, they are good enough for everyone. Since he is a dim bulb, what is the problem? Plus, bulbs that burn out frequently create jobs. As usual, the idiot doesn’t realize that rolling back the lightbulb efficiency leads to a huge increase on CO2 emissions (millions of tons of CO2). Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

3 September: DDT is setting the stage for a renewed war in Afghanistan by forming an agreement with the Taliban that will revert Afghanistan to the state it was before the war started – a repressive religious state with women as invisible creatures. Pathetic. The next president will have to deal wit it all over again. Wow Mike Pence has spent $250000 of US government money on Trump properties in his latest trip to ireland. He stayed more than 150 miles from his meeting place. As an article said, “Pence has never needed orders to steer money DDT’s way”. Good news, a court has struck down the very unfair voting map in North Carolina. Down with Jerrymandering. DDT was mocked by the Mayor of London for fiddling (playing golf) while Florida burned (prepared for the hurricane). DDT said he played very fast, so it was OK, and the mayor should mind his own business and reduce knife crime on London. Nice play Nero (DDT). He also blamed Obama for playing golf in Hawaii while on vacation. Stupid man, DDT, that is. Looks like the Texas gunman purchased his assault weapon in a private sale that needed no background check. This needs to be heavily regulated. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

2 September: As predicted, DDT changed his mind. Now there is no plan. This is entirely consistent with his secret plan. He says he will not support any new gun laws. More later...... It’s later now. The hurricane is devastating and it looks as if Florida will get hit on the eastern portion and then Mississippi and the Carolinas. Not good. DDT is not fiddling as the hurricane approaches, but her is doing the Nero equivalent, playing golf. So glad he’s on the job with his gut focused. Brexit could be in trouble. The parliament is rebelling and may force an election. Could be that Johnson loses and Brexit dies. Meanwhile on the home front, China is calling DDT’s tariff bluff and ignoring him. Plus, there may be no talks, which would further undermine DDT. The really good news is that RBG says she’s doing just fine, so DDT will not get another Supreme Court Justice because of her. Go for it DDT. Slam unions on Labor Day. Smart move for an idiot. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

1 September 2019: Apparently DDT has a secret plan to end gun violence that he has concealed under his voluminous gut lo all these months. It just was revealed by none other than the second coming of god, DDT, himself. Glory be. I cannot wait for this plan to be released in scripture form. In the beginning, all was dark in the US, when behold a shining light and a parchment with a plan, and the plan was good. That is, until DDT changed his mind after 2 minutes. It’s just in time after yet another mass shooting in Odessa, Texas. Texas gun laws were just loosened in honor of the mass shooting (they were loosened, but the timing was a coincidence). At least we now know the shooters name, Seth Ator. When will the madness stop? Trade talks with China will continue in September, so sayeth the DDT. Do the Chinese agree? Who knows? Nice, Israel and Hezbollah exchanged rocket fire. Let’s hope it calms down. With the Iranians fat fingers in the pie, I doubt it. One hopes that Israel is not depending on DDT if something bad happens. Depending on DDT is like depending on the wind for power. Fickle blows the DDT. Rudy G. had a mental speech defect yesterday, claiming the Comey tried to frame DDT after the IG report. He needs professional help, now. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

31 August: Just like yesterday. Another day, another mass shooting. When will kids be deemed more important than guns. And, not just kids, but nay person that gets in the way of a crazed gun-person. DDT get off you butt and get something useful done. Just one thing like this in your presidency and all else might be forgiven. Look Look – DDT is suing Omarosa and others for telling it like it was (confidentiality breaches). Nothing like airing out all the dirty laundry. Go for it DDT. Another tax cut for the wealthy is in store. Indexing capital gains always sounds good until you realize exactly who really benefits. Inflation is already factored in, in terms of the reduced tax rate for capital gains. DDT we do not need another deficit buster. Stop the insanity. Stop benefiting yourself.

30 August: A short paragraph today as hurricane Dorian approached Florida, which is just misdirection as to why the paragraphs will be short. See, I’ve learned from DDT, better to misdirect than be correct, and it rhymes. Part of today’s news concerns tha housing crises in most of the big US cities. California has taken a step limiting rent increases in an already inflated market. We’ll see how that works out. Another day, another shooting, ho hum. I’m serious, this is ridiculous. Ten people killed at a high school football game and no one is lifting a finger to limit that access to guns. What will it take? Some legislator’s family getting killed to change opinions. Shocking news, DDT is again after the LGBT community as part of military families. And, last, but not least, DDT dumped his personal assistant for talking about his children. Shocking! DDT apparently tweeted a classified photo of the Iranian missile failure exposing US methods of obtaining intelligence. Way to go dummy. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

29 August: Amazing. Going after Comey. I certainly have no “love” for the guy. To me he’s a self-righteous prig that contributed to Clinton’s loss and DDT’s win with his playing around with the Clinton email issue just before the election. The bottom line so far is that he mishandled FBI memos that he wrote himself about his meetings with DDT. No classified information. We’ll see how this plays out. Aside from this trivia, Hong Kong looks like it is entering a crucial stage with the arrest of putative protest leaders. How long China is going to put up with protests is anyone’s guess. Thanks to the amazing diplomatic skills of DDT, we have almost zero leverage with China. Good luck Hong Kong. It appears that DDT’s EPA is screwing the corn farmers by issuing exemptions to oil companies about blending ethanol in with gasoline. One can always count on DDT for consistency. The farmers are losing money big time thanks to suddenly reduced demand caused by the exemptions. Vote for anyone else than DDT this time. The long knives are starting to come out as Lizzie Warren rises in the polls only trailing Biden. The former staunch Republican now running as a Democrat promising trillions of dollars of benefits with no means to pay for them. She has a plan for everything that is basically “you have a problem and I will fix it for you regardless of cost”. It’s free everything in her world. Even so, she’s smarter and infinitely more honest than DDT, so I would vote for her in a general election, but notin the primaries. Got toget rid or the embarrassment the is DDT.

28 August: DDT is at it again for Puerto Rico as a storm bares down on it again. Misquoting the amount of money given as 96 billion instead of the true figure 14 billion for reconstruction after the devastating Maria storm. What’s a few facts among friends? Plus, the storm Dorian will hit the US. DDT has now drained millions from FEMA to fund his detention centers for immigrant holding pens. Al (the Boris) Johnson just suspended parliament in the UK so that he can force Brexit. I bet DDT wishes he could do the same for Congress. DDT is extremely nervous about the tax return information that Deutsche Bank has in its possession. It will show some really bad stuff including Russian co-signers on his loans. DDT is threatening legal action unless the reports are retracted. Go for it DDT, if you sue, the reports will become public. Way to go, a Georgia Senator is retiring offering another possible pickup for the Democrats who really need to capture the majority again. General Mattis has detailed the nightmare that is DDT in a new book that includes the partial dismantling of NATO and the use of torture. Of course, DDT promised pardons to those aides working to build the wall even if they violate the law. Later he claimed he was joking. If I were those Aides, I would not count on DDT for anything. You would have to be a complete fool. Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

26 August: Nothing much happened today that didn’t also happen yesterday and tomorrow. Today it’s on and tomorrow it’s off. What you may ask is on and off? Well, the answer is blowing in the wind (DDT’s hot and cold air). I can’t stand it. Writing this blog without knowing what is happening is frustrating to a degree never imagined by a sane person. Once a long time ago in my life I had a run in with a genuine sociopath. The degree of confusion associating with him (before I realized what was going on) was astounding. At first, I thought I was losing it, losing my sense of reality. I get the same feeling now with DDT. The man is insane, insane and self-centered. Asked why he behaves in such a manner, DDT replied that he had found such erratic behavior useful in the past. This is a sociopath that knows exactly what he wants to do, even if he fails at achieving his goals. We’ve got to get rid of this man. I just hope the rest of the world gives us some slack until he gets voted out of office, Dump Trump Ditch Mitch Moscow's Bitch.

25 August: Now we have 2 non-entity Republican candidates running for President I the Republican party. Will there be debates? Even with these two, it might be interesting. One of then is an acknowledged racist, at least from remarks he made in the past. We’ve got a hurricane possibly coming, Dorian. DDT will have to respond to flooding and damage, some of it in Puerto Rico. We know how that came out last time. Throw those paper towels DDT. The most recent economic data totally challenges DDTs estimate of economic health in the US (couldn’t be better smirks DDT with a sense of panic about the upcoming election). The only good thing is that a downturn may help kick the bum out. The republican Scaramucci actually appeared at Biden’s charity rally and supported the removal of DDT. The G7 meeting is an example of total dysfunction of DDT sowing disunity. We’ve got to get rid of the bum.

24 August: Now he’s sorry and now DDT’s not about the trade way with China. Then comes a clarification of the “sorry” word. He’s only sorry that he did not set the tariffs higher. If the world can only hold their noses for 1 more year, the US will be rid of this buffoon and things can become more normal. This is one advantage of a democracy, a mistake, a lunatic, can only be in office just so long and then they’re gone. Now DDT is hinting at big trade deal with the UK. If the UK falls for that BS, then I really feel sorry for them. What did we send to Europe to the G7 meeting? Our clown brigade. They are all in a fit that the G7 ministers want to discuss “niche” issues such as climate change. One more year guys and our President will have more than 2 digits in his IQ. Interesting, Israel has admitted it bombed site in Syria that contained Iranian “killer” drones that were intended to attack Israel. In this case, I do not blame them. The Iranians are causing nothing but trouble in that region. A little bit popped out in the news about the Fed in that DDT would reap millions of dollars if the Fed were to cut rates as DDT has been demanding. Just a little bit of self-interest, do you think? Now some good news, RBG, the oldest Supreme Court Justice just had another successful treatment of cancer. Hopefully, she will stay cured for her sake and for the good of the nation.

23 August: A day the will go down in idiocy. A day when the feckless leader of the not as free as it used to be world led us all off the cliff and into the breaking waves of a recession. The metaphors may be mixed, but the meaning is not mixed. We have an expanded tariff war going with China hitting us back where it hurts. This round will directly affect consumers with higher prices and farmers with much lower sales. A reduction in interest rates will not soften the blow. The idiot thinks he can bluff and bluster his way to what he sees as victory, an illusion that only he and a rabid few can see. The bad news it tha Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg has cancer again, and a dangerous form at that. One hopes for her sake and the sake of the country that she survives long term. The last thing we want is another rabid right wing person appointed to the supreme court. We have got to get DDT out of that office, preferably by him losing the election in a landslide.

22 August: According to polls, most Americans do not want DDT impeached and thrown out of office. Some of the stuff he’s doing makes you want to get the clown out of there, particularly since some of it is also dangerous. I tend to agree and hope that the elections will do the job of getting rid of him. Then let the courts in NY finish the rest of the job. Really. DDT told a group of veterans that he would like to award a medal of honor to the 2nd coming of god, namely himself. Good deal! DDT’s approval rating has slumped to 36%, which means that there are some Americans slowly emerging from the trance of DDT’s demagoguery. In case you did not know, Larry Kudlow is suggesting that DDT may introduce another budget busting tax cut before election day, What happened to the Republican party that used to be the party if fiscal responsibility. They haven’t been that way in decades, but it’s worse now. Now DDT is planning to jail migrant families indefinitely and is bragging that such jailing will bring families together. What a mess.

21 August: OMG. Now DDT’s the 2nd coming of God and King of Israel according to DDT quoting a conspiracy theorist. We’ve got to buy Trumpland from Denmark to have a place suitable for a god-king. We can freeze him in a glacier and DDT can be preserved forever. At the same time DDT has doubled down on the claim that Jews who vote Democratic (as 70% do) are disloyal to the new god and to America. Of course, DDT has slammed the Danish Prime Minister as “nasty”, when she seems to be a quiet nice person with very diplomatic demeanor. DDT has also made a new rule that allows him to detain families and children for much longer times. Hopefully, DDT will supply water, toothbrushes and toilet paper. What a blooming jerk. On another front, DDT is claiming “ I am the Chose One” to pursue the trade war with China. Now will he or won’t he decrease the payroll tax? He was going to until it was pointed out that such a move indicated he was afraid of a recession that DDT denied even existed. What a dilemma. It never ends with this clown as President.

20 August: I just found out that people who are Jewish must not vote for Democrats, but must vote for racist Republicans like DDT or be deemed disloyal Americans. After all, it’s DDT that backs Netanyahu the likeminded Jewish racist and crook. Oh good, another tax cut and more debt. As the famous philosopher said, “without debt, there is nothing”, so bring it on. The idiot DDT is still mocking Rashida Talib and furthering her cause. Shut your mouth DDT. People will think you are more intelligent that you actually are dumb. Great, DDT no longer supports even the minimum improvements to gun control, improved background checks. We’ve got to get rid of that horses nether quarters. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

August 19: DDT is backing off from anything meaningful. And that includes gun control measures that might save lives. The idiot is also looking for decreasing taxes again with no regard for the state of the country and its debt. There will come a point where the interest on the debt will use of all the available cash. But what does DDT care? Lizzie is on the campaign trail in Indian country apologizing for her gaffe in claiming Indian ancestry. Good for her. Personally, she makes my hair stand up on edge, but I will vote for her against DDT in the general election, but not in the primaries. The missile testing wars hae started again with both Russia and the US testing intermediate range missiles. Let’s hope there is never a mistake. With the opportunist, Putin and the idiot, DDT, one never knows. Well they’ve done it and pushed Planned Parenthood out of the government funded program in order to preserve their integrity for medical advice. Hopefully, the millions of women they serve will still be able to get good medical care. Amazing, DDT still smarting over his loss of the popular vote in 2016, claiming that Google and Clinton manipulated the vote count to make him (DDT) lose the popular vote. Will the madness ever stop?

August 18: That famous economist DDT says, “I don’t see no recession”, and I just cleaned my crystal ball yesterday. It’s the biggest crystal ball ever. Plus, I’ve got my trade war with China going, the biggest baddest trade war ever. Poor DDT, his biggest real estate deal fell through. He admits that he tried to buy Greenland (aka Trumpland). What an idiot. There’s not a lot going on this Sunday, so I’ll keep it short. I’m sure Monday will bring more sad idiocy. But on the bright side, a Fox news poll shows DDT losing to every major Democratic candidate. DDT is complaining that Fox news ain’t what it used to be. To bad dummy. Oh, and we have a new slogan for Moscow Mitch, "Ditch Mitch Moscow's B..ch". That might help get rid of him in 2020.

17 August: Apparently DDT is still looking to buy Greenland even though he has been made to look like an idiot in the past few days, since neither Denmark want to sell nor do the Greenlanders want anything to do with such nonsense. This is pure distraction and an ego move on the part of DDT. He probably wants to rename the place Trumpland. DDT is negotiating with the Taliban on the premise that it will be politically good for him to bring troops home. Our super negotiator seemingly is producing an extremely weak position for the US and Afghan side. It’s a prescription for a Taliban takeover that will wipe out all progress made for individual rights and especially for woman’s rights. What a jerk we have as President. Gibraltar has rightly refused to give into US demands that it seize the tanker on the behalf of the US. Perhaps the brave DDT administration can do it without help. Nice move Trunpsters, the company Shell forced its workers to attend the DDT rally in Pennsylvania or lose pay for the day. Oh, that explains it, a Shell spokesman says it was a worker training program where the guest speaker just happened to be DDT campaigning for re-election. Overseas Al Boris Johnson is leading the UK down a rabbit hole of a disaster with looming shortages of medicines and food. October will be fun to watch as the UK falls apart. Steven Miller and others have pushed to block migrant children from attending schools. Brilliant move, Miller, it fits right in with the rest of your chauvinist outlook.

16 August: Excellent plan: buy Greenland from Denmark, or perhaps Crimea from Russia. Think big DDT. Get your name in the history books or in the medical records of a mental hospital. Both are likely, but neither will be complimentary. Perhaps you can trade, Florida for Greenland. What do you have to lose? With global warming, Florida will soon be under water and worthless, while Greenland will become ice free and warm (er). Sounds like a real estate fraud made in heaven. Poor Talib, now she won’t see her aging grandmother, since she turned down the offer to visit Israel. Must not have been important after all. That is not to say that Netanyahu behaved like an idiot, he did, and fell into a political trap. But Talib used her grandmother like a political pawn. Oh well, hopefully we will be rid of her in a couple of years along with DDT and Netanyahu. Good news is that stocks went higher today by 1.5%, but still down for the week. Is a recession looming? The markers say yes, but with everything so crazy right now, who knows. We have got to get rid of the idiot running the country in circles. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

15 August: Ok the stock market dribbled upward a bit on good retail news. Whoopie! That still leaves over 3% of recovery needed, and tomorrow it may fall further, old dead cat bounce. DDT managed to get the two congress women barred for Israel. I have little sympathy for the causes they espouse, but they should be free to express themselves. The worst thing they are doing is the boycott Israel preaching. I would be OK with that if they also cam out for boycotting Egypt, and Iran and other despicable governments. But by singling out Israel, they are being as racist as you can get. Of course, I think that the Israel’s government needs to held to account for its policies towards the Palestinians, but not singled out. DDT is in New Hampshire trying to win that state that he lost top Clinton. Hopefully, New Hampshire will not fall for the BS DDT dishes out. Hickenlooper has dropped out. Now I wish 17 more would fold their tents and go away. We need to get serious about beating DDT in 2020 and stop the Democratic infighting and sniping. It’s getting more interesting at least according to one poll where Warren is leading the pack in Wisconsin. The main thing is getting rid of the pest, DDT. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 August: Today the stock market dropped 3% in response to indicators that a recession is coming. The cause of that recession is mostly policies of our supreme genius in the stable with his tariff wars. Of course, DDT is blaming the federal reserve for not further lowering interest rates. The real cause is a general falling off in trade and manufacturing largely driven by China, but both in the US and around the world. The other form of idiocy being put forward by DDT are the new eligibility requirements to get a Green Card as a path to citizenship. The requirement that a person receive no public aid is cruel and has no bearing on their future ability to be entirely self-supporting and productive, Meanwhile, the gun violence continues in Philadelphia and California. It’s crazy that Congress will not do anything with Moscow Mitch in control of the Senate. OMG! One of our representatives, Steven King, is putting forth the idea that rape and incest were necessary to populate the world. Who the hell elects this booze? Interesting, the US is moving to seize the Iranian oil tanker captured by the UK. This should further inflame the Iranian situation. I suspect this is being driven by Bolton-Miller and other DDT staffers who really want to start a war with Iran. That's just what the US and the world needs right now, a shooting war. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

13 August: DDT has doubled down on his version of the Epstein conspiracy theory. I prefer the one where he, DDT, is implicated in making sure the guards kill Epstein to cover up his relationship with him. Like all conspiracy theories not based on evidence, it is pure bunk, but why not, I’m just saying. I have heard other people suggesting DDT’s implication, so there must be something there. DDT got the Christmas spirit (NOT) and delayed the tariffs on Christmas type presents toys and electronics. Right. But it did work, the stock market boomed today making DDT look better for now. The Chinese are about to invade Hong Kong. What will DDT’s response be? I suspect it will be very little indeed (hearts and thoughts). Uh Oh, Sanders is ahead of Biden in New Hampshire. Not good for either Biden or the Democratic party. The last thing we need is a dogmatic isolationist President. More guns, more deaths today, this time police officers. More hearts and thoughts, or will Congress and DDT do something serious to stop the carnage? OMG. DDT complaining that being President is costing him money, 3 to 5 billion. The truth is that it is probably saving him money given his appalling track record of losing money. DDT’s staff is complaining about the Statue of Liberty being too nice to immigrants. They want to deport the statue back to France. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

12 August: There’s one thing about DDT, just when you think you’ve see the worst, he manages to astound with callousness or ignorance. In this case it’s callousness. Basically, if you emigrate legally to the US, but happen to lose your job, or have a job that underpays you, and need help, you can lose your right to get a green card and eventually become a US citizen. This is insane (surprised?). People fall on hard times whether you are an immigrant or citizen and need help. Needing help now is not a predicter of who would be a successful citizen. This is just a brazen attempt to limit the immigration of poorer people. Right along with the immigration issue, DDT just weakened the endangered species act, even though it is clear that a lot of species are going extinct. But, why should stupid care? His buddies will make more money. The Epstein scandal is apparently going to spread, both to his co-conspirators and his “guests”. I suspect a lot of heads will roll into jail. The question is just who. Scaramucci, a former DDT friend, is getting more bellicose as time goes on. The “Mooch” is now saying that the President is lying more and sounding increasingly nonsensical. It’s a twitter war. Joe Biden is up to his usual well-meaning verbal mistakes, just as he always has been. They are minor stuff but could defeat him in the primaries. The main thing is to defeat DDT in the general election in 2020. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

August 11: Epstein and conspiracy theories seem to go together. There are a bunch of famous people that appear to be mixed up with Epstein’s nefarious activities. His suicide may be linked to DDT. After all they were buddies not too long ago and Epstein may have had something awful on DDT. It’s possible and perhaps even likely. Perhaps DDT arranged his death as a cover-up. This stupid theory is as stupid as all the other conspiracy theories. Motive, opportunity, and gain, hmmmm! The good news is that either Biden or Sanders would trounce DDT if the election were held now. Hopefully, this will get even better as DDT squirms in incompetence following his bloated gut. Even Scaramucci (remember him) says that DDT will turn on everyone even including the entire country if things do not go his way. When he loses in 2020, beware the time between November and January 20, 2021. Nothing is happening right now beyond the massacres and India causing trouble in Kashmir and China threatening war in Hong Kong and Taiwan and N. Korea launching missiles near Japan and Iran seizing oil tankers and ISIS reemerging and protests in Russia. Pretty quiet wouldn’t you say. If we only has a real President. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court. 

10 August: Epstein’s apparent suicide leaves many questions unanswered. There were a significant number of other men involved, some of whom may now never be known. Fortunately, the FBI is investigating, hopefully thoroughly. Kim Jong Un’s nice letter to DDT says sorry buddy about the extra missile launches near Japan, but what’s a guy to do when you hold military exercises right near my border. Kinda harmless splashing in the water, but it may make Japan sit up and take notice. On the hone front, DDT says there is room to discuss background checks, an almost useless effort without actual assault rifle control. Try following the New Zealand model – buyback and outlaw. Gun control and the assault on Hispanics is having a very negative effect on people causing them to turn against the Republicans. Keep this up, and it cold be a rout of Republicans in 2020. Biden, as he always has done, makes gaffes when speaking. He really needs some help in this department. We need someone that can stand up to DDT who always plays with less than a full deck. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

9 August: The man knows no shame. There is a picture of DDT holding a baby whose parents have just been killed in the shootout in El Paso smiling using a “thumbs-up” sign. Disgusting lack of concern and feelings for other people. An armed copycat was thwarted in a Missouri Walmart otherwise we would be reading about yet another massacre. I am so glad, DDT has sent reassurance to students telling them they have nothing to worry about from the idiots walking around with assault rifles. We need to ban these weapons and ban DDT at the same time. Poor Joe Biden, the press picked up on an obvious spoken gaffe. He said, poor kids are just as talented as white kids, when he meant poor kids of color are just as talented as white kids. Sometimes the press has nothing better to do. North Korea continues to test missiles (really no big deal), but DDT has received another beautiful letter from Kim Jong Un that makes everything better. DDT = Sucker. Right now the world is in sorry shape with all sorts of serious problems heating up and we have a president that is only concerned with himself. One can only hope that no major conflict erupts before someone intelligent takes office. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court. 

8 August: Moscow Mitch has spoken! No need to bring the Senate back to discuss the gun deaths emergency. But he is willing to discuss ineffectual background checks. What is really needed is the New Zealand solution (buy back plus outlawing possession of assault weapons). The Mississippi ICE raids present an ethical dilemma. The workers were here illegally and as such deportation is legal and appropriate. Plus, the companies shouldn’t have been hiring them in the first place. The dilemma comes in to place because of the children, many of whom are US citizens by virtue of having been born here. The result is separation of families, children without parents. The only real solution is preventing companies from hiring illegal workers in the first place. What to do about the existing situation is beyond me. What is needed is some sort of legal work program that will not cause unexpected deportations and disruptions. DDT is the master of distraction. To change the topic from tariffs, mismanagement, and immigration he suddenly with no facts decides to consider commuting the prison sentence of Rod Blagojevich’s sentence, the really crooked former Illinois governor. It makes good press and drowns out what is really going on. Time for DDT to go. Lock up the racist crooked DDT, the (h.a.) genius in the stable, with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court. 

7 August: Our do-nothing useful president is persisting in his demagoguery and pursuit of damaging economic policies. Following his fat gut instead of a working brain, he is leading us down a rathole of racism and nationalism, while causing the world economy to falter. A strong recession is exactly what DDT deserves as the election time nears. That would improve our chances of electing anyone, even a turkey sandwich, over a second disastrous term of DDT. Biden finally came out with a reasonably strong speech against DDT decrying his racism and general incompetence. At the moment, Biden of all the candidates is the only one that the polls show consistently beats DDT if an election were held now. Biden has got to up his game. He needs a speech coach to speak more forcefully and explain all his ideas in a way that fires up his supporters. Reading a column by Dana Milbank, he points out the the new air force one airplane the DDT is having built is more expensive than the one DDT cancelled as being too expensive. Way to go super negotiator, 5.2 billion instead of the original 4 billion. It looks like a few Republican Senators are finally having enough with the mass shootings and are in favor of improved background checks. A weak response, but at least a response. Don’t lose hope though, Moscow Mitch McConnell is coming to the rescue and will not bring any such legislation for a vote. DDT’s climate denial is coming home to plague him. This is the hottest month ever in the US and Europe, plus the number of cities around the world running out of water us astounding. If you think migration was a problem before, wait until migration starts for lack of water.

6 August: Stock market recovered half way, but probably is the famed dead cat bounce. Computer trading is taking advantage of suddenly lower prices. Poor Obama. He gave a short speech condemning racism and those who preach hate. Immediately DDT and his henchmen jumped on him and blamed everything on Obama. Good move DDT. Keep fanning the flames of discord and wind up back in your NY penthouse for a while. Matching orange clothes will look good on you. DDT has no plans to do anything about mass shootings except bend over for the NRA. Republicans should be in mortal fear of the reactions of cities and especially the suburbs for their positions (or lack thereof) on gun control. This is going to be interesting. DDT is suing California abut the requirement to release tax returns to participate in primary voting, not the general election. Let’s see what happens here. Nice move DDT, using the threat of “invasion” as a campaign tactic. Just go for it and you will lose.

August 5: DAHT, the seer has spoken. We now know beyond a reasonable doubt that violent video games are the problem causing mass shootings. These games should only be sold by federally licensed game dealers and require a background check for fitness and maturity (must be over 50). What a fool DDT is as out president. Our super negotiator has managed to start the sinking of our economy with China’s reaction to increased tariffs, namely letting their currency float. This infuriated DDT, as it should, since he will lose this trade war. Against a floating currency, tariffs will not work. Perhaps he should just ban all trade with China, then we wouldn’t have to worry about tariffs and floating currencies. Of course, that would be equally stupid for everyone’s economy. Finally, a judge is questioning the redactions in the Mueller report, especially the redaction related to the president’s testimony, since DDT did not appear before a grand jury making his written testimony public property. It was all written by his lawyers, so I am not sure what he or Barr is afraid of. Well guys, I hope you all like the effect on your retirement packages, huge losses in the stock value and lower fixed payments from interest bearing bonds. Thanks DDT, everybody’s hero.

4 August: Compared to yesterday, today was very quiet. There were no mass shootings, nothing big going on in Congress (they are in recess), and big mouth (the Tweeter) was unnaturally quiet. Moscow Mitch broke his shoulder today at home on his patio tripping over a nasty campaign slogan someone left lying around. I do feel sorry for him, recovery from a shoulder injury is slow and very uncomfortable. Hopefully, it was his right hand, not his left. That way he cannot raise his right hand and swear to tell the truth, thus avoiding his first lie. Right now he is being pushed on additional gun control after the mass shootings. Moscow Mitch is furiously blinking in the bright lights. The Iranians are at it again seizing another tanker on the grounds that it was smuggling oil. Probably true. Pretty soon they will run out of docking area or our feckless leader and equally feckless allies will do something about the situation. Germany says, “Not my problem, go pound sand, we are not helping”. Watch the news for a massacre in Hong Kong. The Chinese are getting antsy about public protests, worried that it might spill over closer to home. If the massacre occurs, will the world do something like boycott China. I doubt it. Perhaps a UN reprimand.  Republican in the House is blaming violent video games for the mass shooting. Clearly, he spends too much time playing them. But, it is not as bad as Tim Scott, the sole black republican congressman, warning us to not politicize the shootings. Tim can you say NRA = Republicans. Enough looking for something to write about this quiet Sunday, so far. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

3 August: I cannot understand the country putting up with mass killings after mass killings (two in two days, Texas and Ohio) with little or no attempt to reign in the possession of military weapons. There was a time when shootings were the province mostly of gangsters, an occasional psychopath, and accidents. Now the equation has changed to loners seeking revenge on the general population for some perceived grievance or solution for depression. People shopping at Walmart or other stores need to feel safe, as do students in their various schools, and people gathering for events. What is happening now is madness. It must change. Pete Buttigieg has it right, “The 2nd amendment is not a death sentence”. Meanwhile, DDT has been really helpful declaring that the shootings are an act of cowardice. Totally meaningless! Right now, DDT’s tariffs, especially the new ones, are threatening ordinary consumers with increased prices, a tax on the poor and middle classes. It does collect revenue for the treasury, but on the backs of people who cannot afford it. Good news, DDT’s pick for intelligence job, Ratcliffe, has pulled out because of background checks and general lack of qualification. He was nominated only because of blind loyalty to DDT instead of an intelligent voice giving the real story to the president. Time for you to go to, DDT.

2 August: DDT has made a mess again. That man needs intellectual diapers more than any other individual that I know. What mess, you may ask? Of course, it’s the tariffs again. It’s like baby poop, the stuff keeps coming for everyone else to clean up. This time it appears to be worse insofar as the reaction of our industry and stock market. The only good to come of it is that it may help prevent DDT from getting a second term. On the North Korea front, DDT is giving them a free pass on the missile launching front, which is probably OK, since it is nothing but bluster. The problem could be if DDT carries it further and calls off military exercises with South Korea just to placate one of his favorite dictators. Today, DDT expanded his disdain for most of America that happen to live in cities, not just Baltimore. This is an effort to get rural people that are part of his base fired up to vote and swing the electoral college in his favor as he did n the surprise results from 2016. At the same time he’s hoping to suppress the minority vote that is associated with cities. Hopefully, the country will call him for the fool that he is and vote DDT out of office and into a jail cell. Then there is Al Boris Johnson, the last PM of the UK. That’s a story for another day. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

1 Aug 2019: The big “genius” in the stable has done it again, threatening more tariffs on China to no apparent end. Before he opened his big mouth with a tweet today the stock market was way up. Now it’s down and will probably fall further. Industry is not happy either. With DDT being extra stupid and Al Boris Johnson playing chicken with Brexit, we are likely to have a nasty fall. Two idiots in power with one sounding educated, but still an effective idiot. Trump said today, “fine with me if China doesn’t trade with us anymore”. Good luck with that. There are a lot of things where China is the only practical source. Short term mess long term, who knows. Good news, only 7 candidates have qualified for the next round of debates (NYT). Twenty is way too much. Recent occurrence, 17 million Americans have been purged from the voter rolls between 2016 and 2018. Some of this is legitimate, but substantial numbers are legitimate voters who happen to be black. Enough for tonight.

31 July: 2nd debate day 2 with everyone attacking Biden, but this time he is holding his own and indicating that he understands the problems quite well. It’s pretty clear that the others on the stage are proposing sound bites, not real policies. Of course, there will be a 3rd debate with Biden, Bernie and Elizabeth W. That will be a real dust up. It’s interesting to watch the sound bites develop. Now they are on the criminal justice system trying to pin the 1970’s on Biden. Unfortunately, Biden did author legislation that discriminated against minorities as an unintended consequence. Undoing this has been a problem of the present. Meanwhile we are watching an intermural blood letting among democrats, each tooting their own horn. It’s not that there are not good points being made, it’s the way the talking is going. On the other news front, Ben Carson has now jumped in to double down on DDT’s Baltimore put down. DDT appears to have proposed the importation of drugs from Canada. But, the drug companies are very unhappy and have gone after DDT. Good deal. All of this is too much. We just want to get rid of DDT.

30 July: DDT backs off on threatening China with yet more tariffs. He’s in fear of not getting a deal going into the 2020 election. Meanwhile the trade deal keeps looking more unlikely every day even as new trade talks are set to begin. We’ll see what DDT has to give up to get a deal of any kind. Tonight the Democratic No 2’s get to have the stage in the first night of debates. It’s the next set of debates with Biden, Kameela Harris, and Cory Booker that everyone is waiting to watch. With Biden sandwiched between the two of them, it should make for an interesting slug fest. My opinion, I do not like Harris or her phony flip-flop medical proposal of Medicare for All with a throwaway choice of additional private insurance. This will cost a bundle and bankrupt the hospitals. She has not detailed a remedy for costs or for making sure that hospitals can operate. I like Cory Booker, but he does not have a chance in the general election. He’s no Obama. Interesting, California is requiring releasing 5 years of tax returns to get on the ballot. I like it, but will it stand up to court scrutiny? The constitution does not have this kind of requirement. DDT has doubled down on his criticism of Cummings and Baltimore while giving a fake message that he has no agenda in such criticism (just the facts, baby). What BS. Meanwhile he is claiming to be the least racist person in the world. What else would you expect from a “stable genius” – the smartest horse’s ass in the stable.

29 July: Again, the senseless extreme right-wing ideas (Might is Right) kill people as happened in California at the Garlic Festival. The killer got his gun in the lenient state of Nevada and transported it into California. Our crazy gun laws need fixing. Our idiot in chief, DDT is locking out the intelligence community so that he, DDT, can manipulate the narrative of events in the world. Coats, a conservative, was just too honest to stay in that position, although I wish he had stuck it out for the remainder of DDT’s term. We need honest people to disagree when needed. Moscow Mitch is defending his blocking of election security bills claiming that making things honest would favor Democrats and, to him, somehow smells of McCarthyism. This, especially after some pundits at Fox News called him a Russian asset. That’s amazing, a missile launcher in checked luggage at an airport on a plane arriving from Kuwait. The situation was benign. An inactive launcher that a military man wanted as a souvenir. Not too smart, buddy. DDT is now falsely claiming that he spent a lot of time with the 9/11 responders even as he was probably playing golf. Unfortunately, the US Senate failed to override a veto on arms sales to Saudi Arabia despite the atrocities they are committing with US weapons, As usual, the feckless republicans avoid taking responsibility for running the country as a country of laws and ethics. We’ve got to get rid of them in 2020. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

28 July: Another fish leaves a sinking ship – Dan Coates (sorry for the mixed metaphor), DDT’s director of National Intelligence has quit over perpetual differences with his ever consistent boss. A new unkonown of no experience has been selected to fill his well experienced shoes, John Ratliffe, an unthinking praiser of DDT. The house committee heads are getting closer to demanding impeachment or at least the investigation that would be part of impeachment. If they go that route it will be “fun” to watch as DDT squirms as his innermost secrets get revealed. Nadler is claiming that Mueller’s testimony, though not dramatic, broke the lie on collusion and obstruction. It’s Sunday, so not much new has happened. Still we have that lying rat in the White House – call pest control. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

27 July: Good for you DDT, you racist moron. Those shoes in your big mouth must really taste good. Going after Baltimore City and Cummings the way you did is the best way to make it easier for you to lose in 2020. The biggest rat and vermin infestation is in Washington DC, not Baltimore, and it’s epicenter located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with further infestation in the persona of Mitch. Mitch the staunch upholder of clean elections and protections against Russian and Iranian interference. His intransigence against new legislation to protect our elections is perfect evidence of the level of his patriotism (zero). With Mitch McConnell in charge it frees DDT from any need to conspire with Putin. Meanwhile your (DDT’s) foresightful policies on trade are causing a slowdown in the economy, which is probably a good thing, since it keeps poor people from being able to support themselves on only one job. Having more than one job keeps them busy and less likely to protest their precarious positions. The other very intelligent self-serving moron on the other side of the pond, Al middle name Boris last name Johnson is pushing for a no deal Brexit. It is hard to fathom the game this slippery person is playing or his intended goals. He has achieved one goal, making himself PM. Now where is he going to go? King is out of the question. So, a puzzle remains, but bears watching. But, watch out US, and economic blowout in the UK will be felt in the US very quickly. The real news is the Supreme Court’s breaking down the barriers of separation of powers between the executive and congressional branches of government with the ruling that it is ok to move money from the military into wall building on out southern border. True, the court did not entirely rule on the merits of the case, but the opinions of the “original intent” block of the court clearly indicates their preference for an imperial presidency. This ruling may set a precedent for this and future presidents to be able to ignore congress’s explicit intent about how to spend allocated money. The Robert’s court has abrogated its responsibility to maintain co-equal branches of government. That said, there are other lawsuits in the courts that may permit the Supreme Court to reverse this disaster. Their ruling was largely based on lack of standing of the plaintiffs. Not being a lawyer, it is hard to understand why everyone does not have standing in a case like this. On the asylum front, news from the insane asylum is that Guatemala is now a safe haven country for asylum seekers despite strong evidence of gangs and extreme poverty. DDT made a deal with the outgoing Guatemalan president to bypass their congress and apply that designation. Bottom line, anyone dealing with DDT almost automatically becomes as crooked as DDT. Time to go in 2020, DDT.  Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

26 July: All is quiet, for now. Kushner is meddling in DDT’s campaign (news NOT), Iran is causing problems (how unexpected), N. Korea is launching missiles ahead of talks (WOW), France is broiling in heat (14 degrees, what global warming), Boris Johnson as the new PM is pushing for Brexit (never would have thought that), but the EU has rejected any new deal, the Supreme Court has approved DDT’s use of military money for his ludicrous wall (now, that was unexpected even from his toady Justices), Congress is pushing for a breakup of the tech giants like Facebook (it’s about time), DDT has entered into a deal with Guatemala to be a country of safe refuge for people seeking asylum (news to Guatemala and the UN), and the Arctic ice is melting at record rates. There’s more, but I am getting tired of adding commas. Best thig to do is prepare to vote in 2020 and get rid of DDT and McConnell. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

25 July: Almost August and congress is about to go on a month’s recess with tons of issues outstanding. Nice job if you can get it. Election reform proposed by the House, not with crooked McConnell in charge of the Senate. McConnell blocked two election reform bills. We’ve got to get rid of that bozo in the next election. The Democrats are disappointed with Mueller’s testimony. What did they expect out of that aging starched shirt. If DDY gets elected, he might escape all charges because of the statute of limitations (5 years). We’ve got to throw him out in 2020. Ok, there ‘s no global warming, except in France where it hit 109F today. A bit warm wouldn’t you say driven by a change in the general weather pattern bringing African air into Europe. Of course, the rest of the world is causing the usual trouble. N. Korea launching missiles, China threatening Taiwan, Iran up to its usual mischief, etc. Of course our fearless feckless leader says, “let the rich countries like Japan and China defend the shipping”. One can always count on DDT. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

24 July: That was a disappointment, Mueller’s testimony that is. I didn’t expect much since he said he was not going add much beyond the report itself. He stuck to his word. There was almost nothing new. That is not to say that DDT is exonerated. On the contrary, he is guilty as hell of obstruction of justice and of conspiring with the Russians. If DDT were not president, he would have been indicted. Much to my surprise, a Federal judge has allowed DDT’s asylum restrictions to stand. The restrictions that require requesting asylum in Mexico first. That will put a stop to asylum seekers. Good news, RBG says she will be around (forever?), she also opposes expanding the Supreme court to compensate for the Garland-McConnell debacle. We’ll have to wait for a few days to see the fallout from Mueller’s testimony. In the meantime we still have a lying, cheating, self-serving president. Boris Johnson took the helm of th eUK and possibly will preside over the dismantelment of the UK at the end of Brexit. Good to know that we now have 2 idiots running the English speaking world. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

23 July: According to DDT talking to young people, the constitution permits him to do anything he wants to do. What a crock. Right now, it sort of works, when the courts happen to agree, because the cowardly Republicans in the Senate would rather save their political jobs than protect the country and our constitutional form of government. They should go back to where they came from, namely to jobs being lawyers, doctors, or comedians where their lack of conscience will do little harm. Certain of them, such as McConnell should just disappear into retirement for the betterment of the country. Tomorrow Mueller sings before the House committees a song already recorded in his reports. The country needs more detail and interpretation of his findings, but I suspect his misguided idea of rectitude will not permit him to help save our government from the likes of DDT and his family. Fear strikes at the heart of DDT at the prospect of his New York State tax returns getting to the House committees. As usual, he’s suing to prevent it, but the resources of the State to respond to lawsuits are pretty robust. Hopefully, the NYS justice department will have the courage to see this through, or just to simply hand them over before DDT legal beagles can mount a defense. DDT put his foot and gut in it again by interfering in the endless dispute between India and Pakistan over Kashmir by suggesting that he could mediate. That’s the last thing either side should want, a bungling ignorant idiot tweeting his opinions for an extremely complex situation. Oh, I almost forgot in the welter of stupidities that abound surrounding DDT. But this one is a whopper. DDT wants to take the highly successful food stamp program and remove about 3 million poor people from eligibility. Most of these people can barely make ends meet as it is, with the change it will be a choice between food and rent. It will also mean a significant number of children losing their access to free or subsidized lunches. The reason, to save money, a pitifully small amount of money. Enough for tonight. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

22 July: The DDT administration has gone and done it again. DDT changed the rules so that it is possible to deport people without a hearing of any kind. The last time something like this was tried, it swept up people for deportation that were citizens, but were not carrying papers to prove it at the time of their arrest. Hopefully, the court case will stop this chaos. Almost no one wants open borders, but we are a country of laws and due process. There are simple changes that could be made to improve the hearing process. For example, changing the order of hearings so that the most recent cases are heard first and leave the old cases for a future time. This would accomplish the goals of determining who is eligible for sanctuary from persecution and who is not in a fairly quick way. Finally, the government has reached a 2-year budget accord. This will calm the annual scramble to get an agreement, especially valuable with an election year coming up. It’s sadly amusing to watch some of the Republicans complain that the budget deal adds to much to our debt, when it is their ridiculous tax cut for the rich that has done the damage. Meanwhile, the UK has selected a PM that is a DDT clone in terms of lies and obfuscation. He’s smarter than DDT, but just as self-serving and stupid acting. The Brits deserve what they are getting, since they asked for it, but it won’t be pretty with Brexit looming. Brexit is in October and a UK recession is predicted to follow. The question is will it spread to the rest of the world? Boris Johnson will probably follow the route of his clone, DDT, and blame someone else when he is one of the prime architects of the pro-Brexit vote with his lies. Both Boris and DDT will have to deal with the looming Iran problem that is now getting worse in the sense that it could trigger war. The bums are in charge and anything cold happen. Lock up the racist crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

21 July: DDT’s racism fling against the four woman representatives is starting to bite him in his nether quarters, or is it? Mark Shields thought it might be a clever ploy to force the Democrats to adopt the policies of the quartet and perhaps select one of them as a vice presidential candidate thereby sealing the election for DDT. At the very least it is giving DDT a device to energize his racist base. Hopefully, there are some decent people in his republican base who cannot stomach the blatant racism and leave. Even Fox News Chris Wallace excoriated Stephen Miller (DDT’s arch fanatic advisor) with “No question Trump’s stoking racial divisions”. Robert Mueller is about to testify to the house committees. The question on everyone’s mind is will he go beyond the material in his report or will he stand on some arcane principle of his own making that the report says it all. He at least should explain his disagreement with DDT’s toady AG, Barr. Things are heating up in both Venezuela and Iran. This is when we need an intelligent forceful leader not a follower of Fox news and his very ample gut. Right now, it is all bluster, especially with the UK paralyzed by its election of a new prime minister (likely to be the fabulist, Boris Johnson) and the looming threat of Brexit. The current PM claims they are consulting with the US, but that is probably an empty ploy, since the coward DDT is in charge. The Democrats are slowly committing fratricide against the leading candidates in an effort to assure the re-election of DDT. What are they thinking? Nice going Chairman Schiff. Calling DDT and unindicted co-conspirator who will likely be indicted when h leaves office. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

20 July: It will be very interesting to see how this appalling racism of DDT affects his future as president and his possible re-election. At this writing it seems that people are withdrawing from him. It should leave DDT with just the detritus of the Republican party. This cannot be avoided, since there seems to be two classes of detritus. The first are those that simply want to take financial advantage at the expense of everyone else and the second are those that are simply racists. To be fair, there are those that are running small businesses on tiny margins so that any decrease in expenses are welcome regardless of the cost to the country. Among the racists are the the ones I pity who are just unreasonably afraid of change and losing their imagined position in their community. The overall effect is deplorable to those who are the targets of their racism. In 2020 we will find out how many of these people exist in the voting population. I can only hope DDT loses bigtime and becomes vulnerable to the criminal charges pending in New York. With regard to DDT’s racist “Go back to where you came from” rants, Michelle Obama has put it best, “What truly makes our country great is its diversity. I’ve seen that beauty in so many ways over the years. Whether we are born here or seek refuge here, there’s a place for us all. We must remember it’s not my America or your America. It’s our America.” It’s a lesson that DDT and his collection of cretins and cowards would do well to learn. I miss the Obamas whether I agreed with all of his policies or not, the Obamas are a class act. I wish that they would start to weigh in more heavliy to help insure the outcome in 2020.

19 July: Iran is playing with fire by seizing 2 British ships. Of course, DDT is still the coward in chief, so there is probably not too much for Iran to fear. More sanctions. But the US is sending troops to Saudi Arabia for who knows what purpose. Would a war help in get elected? Silly stuff abounds. Sanders has vocally pushed for a 15-dollar minimum wage, except when it comes to his own employees. Stupid move, Sanders. As usual DDT specializes in stupidity. Informed by an Iraqi refugee that ISIS killed his family, he asks “where are they now”. Stupid or insensitive, you pick. According to the Wash. Post, DDT is planning to seriously slash budgets if he wins a second term to offset the tax cuts for the rich. This will cause economic havoc, but what does he care as long as he and his rich buddies are OK. DDT has doubled down on his racist outlook. He's now praising the racist chanters at his rally as patriots. OK, DDT, go back to Germany where you came from. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

18 July: Amazing. His crowd chants “Send her back” while DDT does nothing to stop it. That part is deplorable, but then to later claim, “well I didn’t say those things, they did”, and the falsely claimed that he tried to calm them. It’s like the pathetic crowd at his inauguration, the camera tells a different story. What a lying sleazy coward. Hey, the FBI is doing its job and tied to efforts in 2016 to silence a porn star. Not to worry DDT, you have a toad in your pocket. The best toad possible, Barr none. The house passed a $15 minimum wage bill and business is outraged. Think buddies, if everyone charges $15, you are just as competitive as before and the little people can actually afford to live. Meanwhile in the Middle East, Iran has seized an oil tanker and claimed that it was smuggling oil. Weird, since that is what Iran tries to do every day. Good news, The Pharma Bro’s (Shkreli) conviction was upheld. His turn, next the orange gut in an orange suit.Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

17 July: Regardless of how we have gotten here, Turkey is now on its way out of NATO and drawing close to Russia and Putin. If this happens, it will decrease our ability to have a strong defense against an overactive Russia and access to the middle east. Big mistake. This time, not the fault of DDT. Of course, DDT saw this as all about money instead of a strategic affair. The House holds AG Barr and Commerce Secretary Ross of criminal contempt in the fight over the citizenship census question. Now what? Wait and see. The Democrats killed a too early attempt at impeachment. Good, but it is coming. El Chapo is in for life, free housing and food, but no drugs. DDT is attempting to frame the upcoming election in terms of the immigration problem only and not address all the other issues such as medical care, pollution, global warming and a disastrous foreign policy. The democrats in the House just past legislation that will remove further funding from the ACA by removing the tax on Cadillac plans. It is crazy. This will be the first bipartisan piece of extreme stupidity. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

16 July: DDT has gotten worse than before. I did not think it was possible for him to be so boorish and racist, but he has succeeded my expectations. Among other miscreants, McConnell thinks that DDT is not racist. Not surprising, since he is the epitome of a racist himself along with being immorally dishonest (think Garland and other obstructions). I hope he loses his seat in the coming election. And then there is KAC (KellyAnne) who also is not a racist, she just sounds like one. DDT has now instituted further restrictions on Planned Parenthood and women’s health. I hope this time around, women actually get out there and vote the bums out of office. The only way to undo the damage to our democracy is for Democrats to have all three power centers, House, Senate, and President. The we could quickly undo a lot of the idiocy (but not all, since some is permanent) thrust upon us by DDT. Not the least of which is DDT’s attempt to destroy medical care for millions of people. On this topic, I like Biden’s approach of strengthening ACA, keeping private insurance, and letting there be a public option for individuals that want the option. The Sanders single payer Medicare for all would totally destroy health care in this country for a long period before it will finally get repaired. Revolution is always bad. Evolution is the way. No one is smart enough to see the unexpected consequences of quick change, and certainly neeither Bernie or Elizabeth W. are that smart.

15 July: The racist pig doubles down. DDT is in full throated form and thinks his comments were not at all racist. Of course not, it’s just normal DDT., racist in chief, who single handedly has united the Democratic party – He’s the biggest and best “uniter” in history. A new hat needed for “Trumpites”’ Make America White Again (MAWA). On a more immediate issue, DDT has effectively ended the chance of asylum at the US southern border by making it necessary to apply for asylum in the first country you come to when you flee your own country. It is be appallingly interesting to see how this works when applied to real immigrants. As expected, KAC (Kellyanne Conway) has defied congressional subpoenas. Not too surprising, since that lying person KAC has no moral sense and feels completely above the law. Hopefully, congress will take KAC down a peg or two. I wonder how KAC looks in orange clothes? ICE is wondering who leaked information about the raids. From my perspective, it came from the racist in chief, DDT. I wonder if the new executive order will hold up in the courts? The controlling legislation appears to have a loophole that permits DDT to do exactly what he has proposed. Good news, DDT wants to fire Wilbur Ross (Sec of Commerce) over the failure to get the citizen question on the census. While that reason is stupid, it may be good for the country to get rid of that snake. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14 July: Well the world did not end while I was travelling (skipped a day) nor did out idiot of a president go back to his country (Germany) where his family emigrated from and solve its problems. If he would go, DDT would also solve our problems almost immediately. There’s a rumor, probably not true, but you never know, that DDT wants to name a month after himself that is 36 days long, The biggest month ever. After all, I Julius and Augustus can have a month, why not have this be the 14th of Trumpus. Looks like that Cortez woman got insulted by the big mouth of DDT and told to go back to her country to fix it. Instead of getting all excited and emotional, she just should have said, ‘I’m in my country and am trying to fix it, first of all by getting rid of you”. For a change Cortez, it looks like everyone is on your side. The bottom line, DDT is an egotistical racist. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

12 July The fun continues. The democrats and republicans are trading insults and blame for who is responsible for the immigration problem. From my viewpoint the immigration problem has been made worse by DDT withdrawing the funding for NGO’s in the triangle countries of Central America. Mueller testimony delsyedfor 1 week, perhaps. DDT will probably think up some new excuse topostpne orforbid once again. DDT just gave a press conference where the method was to answer something else and move on (gaslighting). This was a master class in the technique for anyone where telling the truth is not the idea. He took questions and calmly lied about almost all of them. This a person that has to be gotten out of public life and prosecuted for the apparent crimes he has committed. The big news today is that the House passed a defense bill with small cuts for some of DDT’s programs and added restrictions to his ability to commit to war with Iran. DDT is threatening to veto the bill if it gets to him. With the looming debt ceiling and other budget problems, this could be an interesting end of summer.

11 July: DDT has lost the census battle. He declared victory and walked away. DDT will still continue totry to collect citizensip data through the federal agencies, but the results will no longer affectthe apportionment of of representatives in the House or distribution of Federal aid to the states. Even so, the scandal continues about the lying to congress. On another front, the idiot is about to start the ICE raids. This will cause a crises just like the separation of children at the border. Good luck sucker. Everything DDT does is mired in controversy and scandal. There is the constant barrage of lie and evasions. The house committees are getting ready to hold hearings and other DDT officials. Should be really interesting if it actually happens. DDT threatened France with tariffs if they taxed the digital giants. France did it anyway. The biggest piece of news today is his list of invitees to the White House for his so-called look into the social media companies. DDT is mad because they have deleted scurrilous tweets and writings of hate speech and have deleted fake accounts. The attendees list is among the worst of the hate mongers. Good for them.

10 July: DDT is going after social media companies because they are purging some false inflammatory comments that support his lies and reelection. The attendees at the meeting arf those particular people responsible for the scurrilous content, basically a hodgepodge of conspirscy theorists (QAnon). A second judge has rejected DDT’s attempt to change the census and has denied requestfor a new team of lawyers. Give up DDT, quit trying to give the republicans an illegal elAectoral advantage. DDT is increasing sanctions on Iran. This will go on until there is a real shooting war. Not too  much happened today, sothis one is short. As usual: Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

9 June: Here we go again with AG Barr in position to protect DDT from the fall out of Epstein’s molestation of underage girls. Barr is a disaster as AG, and I suspect will go down in disgrace after DDT gets booted from office. A Republican dominated appeals court appears poised to strike down the ACA and throw 24 million people off of their healthcare. This is guaranteed to cause more than 20,000 unnecessary deaths, according to studies of the situation before the ACA went into effect. The two Republican judges held a farcical hearing with clearly prejudiced questioning and ignoring previous Supreme court rulings. These guys should be embarrassed. This will go to the Supreme Court and hopefully Roberts will be sensible and will save lives. Neat, McConnell has now accused Obama’s long past relatives of owning slaves to balance out the fact the McConnel’s relatives owned slaves. The big difference is that Obama suffered the prejudice of being black, while McConnel had all the privileges of being white in the South. Interesting, a judge denied DDT’s request to get a new team of lawyers in to take on the census cirizenship question. DDT wanted this because the original team of lawyers was feeling that the case was settled by the Supreme Court. According to a fed official, ICE plans to round up and deport 1 million undocumented people with house raids and business raids. O Goddie, DDT will look carefully at Acosta’s misbehavior when prosecuting Epstein in the Florida sex abuse trials (super lenient sentencing). Having DDT do the review certainly gives confidence. Bottom line in all of this is the utter corruption of the Republicans and their erstwhile leader DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

8 July: It looks like DDT is linked to the sex offender Jerry Epstein. Exactly the depth of this relationship is not yet known, but I am sure more will come out. DDT has made some statements in the past about associating with Epstein and enjoying his social circle that included young girls. There is also the possibility that Epstein’s frolics could impact other people (Bill Clinton?). We’ll have to wait an see. The excessively light sentence Epstein received from the DDT justice department when found guilty by itself raises lots of questions. One down and many more to go. Swalwell just dropped out (Swalwell who?) of the democratic primary race. Sad, but true. The British ambassador cabled London calling DDT inept and is likely to be fired for telling the inconvenient truth. Of course, the ambassador did not leak the material himself, but someone did a lot of damage. The ambassador was just doing his job. The plot thickens, or will shortly. New York has just passed a law allowing DDT’s NY tax returns to be released to Congress. The bottom line is that everywhere you look the DDT administration is crooked, whether lying to the courts, lying to the public, cheating on finances, not upholding the laws or ordinary ethics, and trying to mess up the next election (Citizen question). The 2020 election cannot come soon enough. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW!

7 July: A travel day for  me, so  no comments. A good day for the US sine the woman won the soccer championship. It's theirs, and I won't write anything today except congratualtions.

6 July: There was a 7.1 earthquake in California today, shake rattle and roll. I shouldn’t make fun of genuine suffering of people near the epicenter, and I won’t. California is a disaster waiting to happen, and everyone that lives there knows the risk, or should. Let’s hope everything calms down. Biden is finally apologizing for his statements about working with the racist senators in the 1970’s. His record is definitely one of supporting equality. One can disagree with details, but no one can claim he has not been supportive during his long career. I give him a lot of credit for not attacking his fellow democrats in contrast to the ambush of Kamala H. DDT is still mulling, thinking (painful), and checking his gut (burp) to see if he can get that citizen question back onto the census. Perhaps he could print it on toilet paper and distribute it everywhere for free. It would certainly get used usefully. Kamala is proposing to spend 100 billion to close the racial gap in housing. Is there going to be a race test, or will it be available to everyone that has a low income. Good question, but no answer. She’s also making a similar proposal to help black business people get a start. In the world, the rhetoric is starting to heat up about the Iranian tanker stopped near Gibraltar. Careless retaliation could cause real trouble. I’m sure we can count on our fearless brilliant leader to back the UK (hopefully not into a corner).

5 July: OMG…DDT cannot even read and certainly cannot think. Between ramming the ramparts and taking over the airports in 1775 while flying the flag that appeared first in 1812. The Continental Army under George Washington crossed the river and won glory in Delaware. That’s probably more history than his addled brain can absorb. The fact that he got a few details wrong, who cares. Fortunately, the Brits could not establish New Heathrow in 1775 because of our brave troops.The main thing is that those Brits never got their airplanes going to attack our troops. The gods saw fit to rain on DDT’s speech, the greatest 4th of July speech ever. Back in the present, DDT is “thinking” about using an executive order to get that citizenship question back on the census forms. The fact that the courts have ruled against him seems to carry no weight for our tinpot dictator wanna-be. The right wing is claiming the “deep state” sabotaged the teleprompters and confused DDT. Yeah, reading English has always been a problem. Then there’s that fake news about global warming with Anchorage Alaska setting records (90 degrees) yesterday with more very hot weather forecast. Just wait until it hits 120 in the lower 48. On the campaign front, the distant 2nd and 3rd place candidates are taking ineffectual swipes at Biden, who remains stubbornly in the lead with his “center-left” positions. Good news. Peter Gotti (mobster) is sorry and wants compassionate prison release. C’mon DDT, you can pardon him. Bad news. DDT’s Fed pick wants to return to the Gold Standard for our currency showing complete ignorance of how a modern economy works. The seizure of the Iranian tanker illegally on its way to Syria is still simmering with the Iranians threatening to seize a British tanker. How to start a war. Now the Chinese are playing hardball with DDT. No deals until the tariffs are lifted. Good luck with that. There’s more, but that’s enough for today. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

4 July: The Chicago Tribune’s Rex Huppke has it right, “Welcome to DDT’s Big Dumb Fourth of July Festival of Narcissism! A real show of farce”. It is 7:20 pm right now. Did DDT already give his speech in front of soggy onlooker’s? A senior White House spokesperson says, ‘The president's remarks are expected to be patriotic, not political, in nature.’ We’ll see. I’m listening right now to his smugness of the orange makeup. So far, he is reading from the teleprompter. “America belongs to us”. I certainly hope so. Now the band is playing. Blue Angels are flying, the army band is singing, and some people are cheering. In the rest of the world, the British (with US agreement) have seized an Iranian oil tanker on its way to Syria against EU rules. Iran is unhappy, surprise. NASA launched the Orion capsule successfully that is built for Moon missions. There is not much going on today, politically speaking. There’s tennis and other trivialities, but little for me to write about. I just want to see that idiot out of my life and off my TV screen before he does even more damage to my country. With the 4th of July military parade DDT now looks like an old-time South American military dictator. It's tomorrow, the 4th, and DDT was pathetic.  Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it?

3 July: DDT is true to form and refuses to admit defeat on the citizenship question for the census. He is scratching around for a sneaky way to add the question even though the forms have now gone to the printer and the Supreme court did not back him up. Nothing like a tin-pot wanna-be dictator. The weather gods seem to be playing with DDT’s “greatest 4th of July celebration ever” where he is turning an Independence Day celebration into a war making machine day. This almost emulates Russia with its military May-day parade. Let’s hope the weather saves us from a sad spectacle with Tanks, planes and a probable campaign speech from DDT damning his enemies. Sad perversion of our national holiday. But the weather promises to make a mockery of his vainglorious attempts at self-congratulation. Thanks to DDT pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal, we now have Iran saying it will enrich uranium to “any amount we want”. Good way to start a war. We have a President who’s negotiating skills are the worst ever, lots of bluster, alienating friends and agitating enemies all the while kissing Putin’s hindmost parts. It’s an awkward position he’s in, especially with that huge guiding gut protruding out front. The problem is that we are all in the same screwup position he’s in. Gotta get rid of him in 2020. Tragedy, I mean real tragedy, 45000 barrels of Jim Beam bourbon destroyed in a warehouse fire. Personally, I do not care, but for the drinkers of this world, tragedy. The gods must be mad, a volcano in Italy (Stromboli) just erupted forcing a major evacuation. In the UK, Boris Johnson, the British clown, is promising tax cuts (heard that before) while embracing Trumpism (DDT + DBJ what a combo). With the 4th of July military parade DDT now looks like an old-time South American military dictator. Full report tomorrow. Next comes a uniform and medals.

2 July: At last, DDT administration drops the citizenship question from the census. Thank you Supreme Court. At least we stand a chance to get a proper counting, which is necessary for allocating representation and the apportioning of federal funding. Shocking videos and descriptions tonight of the conditions inside of the holding camps for the men, women, and separately the children of migrants. This is crazy. We can do better. Use our immense resources to build or acquire decent facilities. DDT is claiming that sanctuary cities and their migrant homelessness are destroying a whole way of life that makes up our country. What hypocrisy he shows, since it is his policies that have made the problem incredibly worse. Cutting aid to the “Triangle countries” was a move of idiocy. The aid needed to be increased, not in money given to the government, but in developing economic opportunity locally to make people want to stay. What a bloody egoist is DDT. He now demanding that military chiefs stand beside him at the 4th of July celebration with tanks, military vehicles, jets overhead, and large numbers of in uniform military. DDT has debased this holiday, a holiday celebrating US independence and peace, not a chauvinistic display. On another front, The House Democrats are suing the Treasury department to get hold of 6 years of DDT’s tac returns, which is their right under our laws. On the climate change front, Europe is sizzling as are other countries including the US (to a lesser degree) and it’s only early July. This June was the hottest ever recorded on Earth, and DDT fiddles while everyone burns. With the 4th of July military parade DDT now looks like an old-time South American military dictator. Next comes a uniform and medals. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

1 July 2019: Cortez is going to visit the border with other congressional people. I’m sure it will be grim, since there already is a controversy between Cortez and the Border Patrol (self-inflicted by the Border Patrol). Hopefully, the controversy will come to nothing except bluster. China V Hong Kong is getting very tense with massive now violent riots. What will the mainland Chinese do? Good question. This is getting ridiculous, Sarin at a Facebook mailing facility. We are not at war with Social media. Reform efforts, yes, but terrorism, no. I suspect (no proof) that this is a response to the cutting off of the most scurrilous posts that frequently come from the extreme right wing and are usually false. Polls now indicate that Harris and Warren were the biggest beneficiaries from the debates as is Pete B. Time will tell on this one as Biden drops in popularity. He better do a lot better in the next debate if he wants to actually run for President. This was his to lose, and he’s doing a good job (losing). The main thing is to get a candidate in there that can wallop DDT in the election. Nothing else matters. The far-left positions are a detriment, nice sound bites, but of little practical value. Some more moderate policies moving in the liberal direction would be winners. Come on Biden, show a little spine. Weneed you in ther in good fighting form to take out that horse's rear end. What an idiot is DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

30 June: Watching Meet the Press this morning it is clear that Biden needs to up his game and to be a bit more understanding of the changes that have occurred since the 1970’s and 80’s. By today’s standards looking back, it is clear he made mistakes. Joe, admit that hind sight is 20:20 and move on. The remaining candidates are touch and go for a general election. Cory Booker and Kamal Harris are possible, but they too need to show more understanding. The next round of debates with fewer candidates on stage should help sort this out. Meanwhile, DDT and Kim met and actually walked into North Korea. As a gesture, it was great theater. Will anything come of it? One can hope. DDT seems to thnk that we are “winning” the trade war with China and has partly caved to get another summit. I don’t see any winning yet, but I do see pandering for the next election. Bottom line. DDT staked out a tough line and folded like a house of cards when the pressure started to hit. Whatever credibility he had is disappearing fast. I think the methods he chose are pretty bad, but at least don’t give in so quickly. A federal judge has stopped DDT from using 2.5 billion in redirected military funds for his ill conceived border wall. Stop the idiot I chief. It’s the right thing to do. What an idiot is DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

29 June: Now we know. Kamala Harris is not a genuine “black” person, according to the Republican racists. No, she is the progeny of a person from India (mother) and Jamaica (father), which disqualifies her as a real black person that has been subject to genuine discrimination. What BS. I can’t wait to get those idiots out of controlling our government. DDT attempted to belittle her takedown of Biden, but without calling her names. Fear of losing…perhaps. DDT has backed off the imposition of new tariffs and now will permit sales to Huawei just in time to talk to the Chinese. Today will be short, since nothing much has happened that is really new. What an idiot is DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

28 June: In my opinion, Biden is political toast. After reflection on his “performance” he came across as weak and tired, and a bit confused. It is as if he had no idea that his past was something that needed an apology along with a forceful explanation. It may be too late. We’ll see. Meanwhile our fearless leader DDT is playing footsie with Putin. Having a love fest about interfering in our election and destroying the free press. He also seems to be cozying up to other dictators from China to North Korea. DDT is one of the worst Presidents in the history of our country, an alleged rapist, a sexual predator, a racist, a self-promoter, a perpetual liar, and possibly a traitor to the office of the presidency. Certainly he has created a Potemkin economy built out of “cardboard and debt” that may collapse soon and certainly will burden the future of our country. His machinations have alienated our friends and encouraged our enemies. Get rid of him. What an idiot is DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court

27 June: DDT demonstrates once again that rules are for little people, not for someone as big as a person with his gut. He wants to delay the census after he did not get his way with citizen question with the Supreme Court. Roberts did him in for lying. I wish we would get more of that (for lying). Perhaps DDT will try to fire Roberts – good luck. House democrats passed the Senate (Republican) version of the border bill – now DDT has to sign it. Pelosi acted as a pragmatist, saying that the children come first and that the money was needed at the border to prevent further Trumpian atrocities. OMG. The press is saying that Julian Castro has a breakout night. I watched it and didn’t think that much of him. He did a good job, but It was pretty cookie cutter. Yes he speaks Spanish as Frenchmen speak French, Whoopie. His ideas were in line with everyone else and ho spoke fluently. I will give him one credit for a good remark “Adios Donald Trump”. Frankly, I thought others did a much better job. Frankly, I thought others did a much better job, especially Cory Booker. As a liberal democrat, he has the chops – experience and background, and is very intelligent and articulate. DDT is going to be furious, since Twitter is adding warnings to his racist rants and warnngs frmn other politicians that break the rules. It’s about time. This is written before Debate Part II, so I will finish it later. The second debate was quite interesting from the viewpoint of exposing personalities, from the very polite somewhat lethargic Joe Biden to the shrill characters who are just minor actors seeking name recognition and little else. Get some energy, Joe. The attack on Biden about school bussing in the 1970’s seemed over the top, done just to make a point about Kamala Harris’s personal history (first in her community to be bussed). I have to admit it, Joe blew the response. Bernie was his usual shrill self, repeating over and over the simple mantra about big business and the tyranny of wall street and the need for free medical care and college for all. Even though reform is needed, his plans are extreme. His main attribute is an very loud voice that he uses to repeat and repeat. The public says that Harris came out on top, perhaps. We’ll see next week in the polls. Hopefully, the next debate will have fewer characters and start to get down to the candidates for the general election. DDT says the race is over because the Democrats came out for medical care for the undocumented (if they pay into the system). What an idiot is DDT.

26 June: I’m watching round 1 of the Democratic presidential debates. There are 10 people on the stage and 1 opinion. Is that bad? No, not really since the opinions being expressed are mostly those that any feeling human being would want. Are there differences between the candidates? Yes. Some are tall, some are shorter, some are female and some male. On opinions, they all agree except for minor inconsequential differences. This is like debate about how many threads per inch should your sheets have, 300 or 350. Everyone on the stage agrees that DDT is awful and that the system needs to be reformed on medical care, wages, education, immigration, and full equality. A big question was how would you as president deal with McConnel if he remains majority leader. What joke question. Democrats have to take both houses. As expected, the choice is which one of these policy twins can beat the dummy in the office now. Personally, I’m not sure about this bunch. It will be curious to see the twitter feed of DDT tonight. Remember, the goal is to get rid of DDT and his crooked cronies. Drain the deep swamp. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

25 June: I listened to an interesting read of the Mueller Report called the “Investigation”. It’s available on YouTube for viewing. I thought it would just be a boring read of the transcript, but instead with really good actors reading the various parts it was quite dramatic and informative. Dry words come alive. And now, Mueller has agreed to testify in front of the two House committees in public. As part of this, I listened to an interview by Schiff (one of the committee chairman, Nadler is the other) about the things he wants to ask Mueller and why. If Mueller answers the questions, particularly about whether he was allowed to “follow the money” trail, it will be very interesting. Warning! The debates are coming, the debates are coming. The "second team" is first on Wednesday followed by the "first team" on Thursday. Tomorrow will mostly be about the minor candidates jockeying for position plus Elizabeth Warren having the stage pretty much to herself. Thursday we’ll have Bernie and Biden, which is the main event. There is more going on in the world (Turkey, N. Korea, China, Iran, Venezuela, and our southern border) that our fearless leader DDT is managing to screw up, but that's for another day.

24 June: Well that clinches it. He didn’t do it, that’s clear. What more could you want than DDT forcefully claiming that she is not his type. Since he always tells the truth about everything, we should just ignore the claims of all those women. What a jackass he is, and it appears a rapist too. In the meantime, there are new sanctions on the leaders of Iran, sequestering their money. Can you shrug your shoulders? Go ahead and vote – 1, 2 3 shrug! So far the only people suffering are the little people as always. Not enough food, medicine shortages, unemployment, but nothing severe enough for Iran to change its ways. Still better than a shooting war. Amazing, the DDT Supreme Court judges voted against each other finding a particular gun law unconstitutionally vague. Solution, pass another gun law that is more specific and quit crying about the old one. A judge in Missouri ruled that the last abortion clinic in the state can stay open (until Friday). WOW that’s a relief. DDT is brining transparency to medical costs from hospitals so that you can shop for lower prices. Great move. Have a heart attack or stroke or broken leg. Don’t call an ambulance or your doctor, go online and get those hospitals to submit competitive bids so that you can take the lowest bid. Just put that heart attack aside and wait. Or, once in the hospital, make them sign an agreement that they will not use an out of network doctor unless they are willing to pay the difference. Please remember to bring your contract lawyer. As always, you can count on DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he destroys medical care. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

23 June: Just starting summer and the heat is about to hit. No more Mr. nice weather. Biden is about to get a full-frontal assault for having a big mouth partially disconnected from his brain. His intentions are fine, but committing an unforced error like associating himself with 1970’s segregationists is crazy. We know what you meant Joe, but you shot yourself in the foot. Bernie is trying to explain his free college plan that requires you to put you head in the sand while standing with one leg (preferably the left one) up in the air. The position is a funny image, so are Bernie’s plans. Moderation Bernie, moderation, and you might actually achieve something useful. DDT is still dropping word bombs on Iran. No casualties so far, but credibility was blown sky high. This and two other credibility actions (tariffs and immigration raids) where DDT has pulled back at the last second are examples of DDT creating crises and then claiming credit for “solving” the crises. One of these times, this tactic is going to backfire in a major way. Credibility and confidence are the biggest and best weapons that the US has, both for our allies and enemies. DDT has and is squandering both. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. Lock him up before he gets thousands killed. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

22 June: Hold your breath….DDT has declared cyber war (limited) on Iran. In my opinion, probably appropriate, but the response may not be a good one for us. We have lots of vulnerabilities that the DDT administration has not addressed (e.g., our power grid). This is nothing new for DDT, who has the attention span of a gnat, to not know how to defend this country form determined state actors, nor to want to allocate the resources needed. Pelosi apparently called DDT (on the phone, I presume) to delay implementation of the ICE roundup of immigrants DDT agreed and gave congress 2 weeks to formulate new acceptable (to DDT) immigration policy. Good luck. It’s amusing, if it were not serious, that Oregon republican legislators have fled the state (to Idaho) to avoid the Senate being able to vote on a cap and trade bill. Yes, the Democrats employed similar tactics in Texas. What makes this different and not amusing is the Republicans teaming up with so-called anti-government militias and threatening violence against democrat law makers. Oh well, nothing like democracy in action. Meanwhile, DDT, half seriously, vows to stay president forever as part of his 2020 campaign appearances. It may be a joke, but it’s not funny. Just listened to DDT make a fool of himself on Meet the Press, but not as badly as he usually does. Watch it yourself. So, one point to DDT. For example, why sell arms to Saudi Arabia? It’s the money, who cares about war crimes and murders. Take their money and look the other way. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. When do we want it?

21 June: Another woman coming forward to say that DDT assaulted (raped) her a number of years ago. I cannot blame her for not reporting it sooner given DDT’s penchant for legal assault and character assignation. Who would want to go through that? Her friends corroborate her story. Is there a statute of limitations on rape in New York? She is not the first and probably will not be the last. What the heck is going on in the Dominican Republic. Another woman died after her husband died. Stay away. Now Missouri has denied the last Planned Parenthood its license to provide women’s health care. Shameful, whether you personally agree with a women’s right to chose or not. Starting this weekend the massive ICE deportation of families begins. I suspect that they will not be able to do this without people getting physically hurt. These are people who have had their day in court and lost. How fair all this is, I have not a clue. OMG…DDT tweets a video showing him running for President indefinitely. The only thing I want for him indefinitely is jailbird. While Hope Hicks refused to answer any questions, she did confirm that he would accept negative information on his opponent in 2016 and 2020 from foreign sources.

20 June: Solstice is approaching and after is the gathering darkness. The same is true as we go into the last year (I hope) of DDT’s chaotic despotic reign. The ignorant lout has got to go. Today, DDT informed us that Iran must have accidentally shot down our drone. This is artless BS misdirection in preparation for retaliation. Good luck DDT and the rest of our nation. Oh, and Roy Moore has poked his ugly political head up from the ashes of his last attempt. It’s just what we need, a raging bigot in the Senate to further gum up the works. One only hopes that Alabama has had enough of such jackasses. What’s with Biden? I know he has no ear for what is controversial and what is the point he is trying to make. He was simply trying to say he can work with people with whom he has some disagreement. Using the example of segregationists was foolish in the extreme. Think Biden think before you speak. Fox news Hannity claims DDT is going to bomb the hell out of Iran. I doubt it. It’s a mess with DDT steering us into the rocks.

19 June: It is never ending. DDT is now proposing to eliminate OPM, the office that manages the civil service and all personnel problems. According to DDT, “eliminate the agency or I will lay off all of the employees”. I’m not sure if he can actually do that, but her sure can make a mess. His proposal for DDT-Care is to have companies pay a fixed amount into an account from which you can buy insurance on your own without the benefit of the negotiating that companies buying multiple policies have. Good luck on DDT-Care. With a friend like DDT having your back remember not to pull the knife before your receive medical care. DDT just picked an United Nations ambassador who apparently had a huge number of absences as the envoy to Canada. But, I’ll give her credit, she just broke with DDT and said that climate change is real and a real risk to the planet. That should go over well with STUPID. People are still spinning from the first campaign rally. His blind followers are bathing in the Coolaid, while anyone that can think of anything but themselves are seeing the same ignorant tyrant personality that we saw in 2016.Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key.

18 June: This campaign season is going to be wild. DDT has just given his big campaign rally and it was appalling for the amount of misinformation and divisive speech. I certainly only heard a short portion of the speech, but it just happened to be the portion on the ACA (medical care) filled with lies and misdirection. The man is a used car salesmen, a huckster, a seller of snake oil, and an inveterate liar. One other piece of action is his plan to bring back coal (every hear of climate change buddy) by gutting coal plant regulations. Along the same line, DDT has now promised to cure cancer (personally?) and AIDS using his superior intellect and astounding gut and fly Americans to Mars. Just give him 3 terms, and he says he can do it all. DDT jr. has now attacked that famous biologist and medical researcher Joe Biden for not curing cancer. Who says idiocy is not inheritable sometimes. Shanahan is gone into the ash heap of DDT friends, With a friend like DDT, who needs enemies? Apparently, the DDT administration knew of Shanahan’s domestic abuse problems and hid it. Smart play, DDT. Hope Hicks, who was hoped to testify about the goings on during DDT’s 2016 campaign, has “stonewalled” much to the ire of House democrats. What did they expect, honesty? In your dreams. Now it appears that DDT did not bother to inform ICE (immigration and Customs) about the mass deportation request even though they are the ones that would actually have to do it.

17 June: DDT is in trouble, but probably does not fully realize the trouble he is in. The Supremes (his court) has ruled that states can prosecute a person for the same crime that he or she was aquitted for in Federal court. This raises the specter of making DDT’s pardon power less useful. That’s right, DDT cannot pardon a state conviction. And, at least NY state is after him and his cronies in a big way. I’d wish you good luck if you weren’t such a threat to our form of government. In DDT’s case, I just want them to have an orange suite extra-large. The Supreme court n a surprise handed DDT 2 defeats, one on gerrymandering and the other on state prosecutions, amazing. Did we do it or did we not. Our security agencies sad we did, DDT accuses the newspaper that reported it “Enemy of the People” and then denied that we did it at all. What am I talking about? Simple, the assertion that we have penetrated Russia’s power grid with the capability of spying or causing havoc. Who knows. I’m surprised that something like this leaked in the first place. According to the idiot DDT, “Do you believe that the Failing New York Times just did a story stating that the United States is substantially increasing Cyber Attacks on Russia. This is a virtual act of Treason by a once great paper so desperate for a story, any story, even if bad for our Country... ALSO, NOT TRUE! Anything goes with our Corrupt News Media today. They will do, or say, whatever it takes, with not even the slightest thought of consequence! These are true cowards and without doubt, THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE! How did we come to this?

16 June: 1st installment: There is all the usual stuff going on, which I will summarize snarkily later. What is of interest this morning is an article in the Washington Post about DDT’s financial failures and his frantic efforts to conceal the failures from the public and from investors. The loss of money by investors is HUUUUGE. It should be a criminal offense for defrauding investors in DDTs fake financial empire. The tactics of suppression of information through intimidation and bribery should get New York State after him for fraud. Others have gone to jail for much lesser offenses. The reporter in the Post and the Post itself should be commended for finally publishing the truth without fear of DDT. The owner of the Post is way richer and smarter than DDT and can fight back. 2nd installment. Good work DDT. When the poll numbers don’t work out, fire the pollsters (as if that changes anything). You are now a loser again. I hope you enjoy your status as an ex-president and a future (wearing orange) resident. No, people are not clamoring for you to win a second and even a 3rd term. Even the Republicans (not all of them) agree in private that you are mostly wrong in your comments abut foreign interference and the possibility of more than 2 terms. On the dark side, Iran is pushing hard for war. The evidence seems clear. Let’s hope it does not come to the ultimate stupidity. Now Russia, that force for peace (NOT) is calling for restraint. Why am I skeptical of the motives of dear mother Russia (Putin) the owner of DDT’s soul. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO. Get rid of DDT in 2020 and save what is left of the Supreme Court.

14-15 June: Missed writing this last night so it is sort of a catch up plus some stuff from the 15th. Bottom line, the Iran fiasco is taking the oxygen out of the news cycle (mixed metaphor). Everyone is worried about the start of WW-3 or at a minimum a major escalation in the middle east with a US attack on Iran. Basically, I don’t think it’s going to happen because DDT would lose a lot of popularity from the little he has left. A war would cause all kinds of destruction and loss of life in Iran and loss of life for the US. Ships in the Gulf are extremely vulnerable to missiles of which Iran has plenty. Iran would lose at a high cost to the US and DDT doesn’t want any part of that. He’s got advisors who are just itching to start a war and he’s got assets that if attacked would definitely precipitate one. At the moment, the rest of the world is opposed to any further escalation, even Japan who’s ship got hit by Iran. Latest headline, US putting malware in Russian power grid. Is this true. If so, it’s pretty stupid unless they are already doing the same to us. Perhaps it is a warning to Putin to not mess around in the US. John Bolton appears to have confirmed the action. DDT is now predicting a major stock market crash unless he wins in 2020. Analysts from Bloomberg debunked this idea. Of course the big news is that our galaxy is on a collision course with the Andromeda galaxy in a few billion years and will cause the stock market to really tank. Worried? I doubt it. Let’s just get rid of the pile of horse manure in the White House and let this country get back to normal.

13 June: Oh No. Sarah Sanders is quitting the White House to run for Arkansas governor. Poor Arkansas possibly getting a confirmed liar as governor. At least we will not have to listen to that immoral person any longer. Of course, DDT will just pick another scum bag. We’ve got to get rid of him. Meanwhile there is a possible war blooming with Iran. A war will be perfect to distract people from DAHT. The loss of life could be horrific for both th eUS and Iran. Iran could make Iraq seem like a walk in the park. Stupid president, stupid Pompeo. Now DDT says he will collude to win in 2020, as in, "what the hell, worked the first time, and got away with it." Flynn is angling for a presidential pardon…good luck Michael…you’ll get it only if it benefits DDT. Oh wow, the blogosphere is now blaming Israel for the tanker attacks in the Gulf. I can’t believe some of the really fake stuff that gets spread around. The other theory is that the Saudis did it to themselves. Bad news is that Ebola is spreading, and we seem helpless to stop it. Soon cases will pop up in the US with the prevalence or air travel and cross border immigration. WHO has called an emergency meeting to discuss containing Ebola. Panic will set in if Ebola spreads. DDT’s best buddy, Kellyanne Conway has been violating the Hatch act but thinks nothing of campaigning while in office. It’s just like DDT. Laws are for little people.

12 June: Cool, DDT has announced that he will accept foreign help in his upcoming 2020 campaign. Of course, he then denied he said any such thing, and said there is nothing wrong with it and having foreign help does not need to be reported to the FBI. DDT is either so impossibly dumb or simply a criminal who does not care about consequences. No matter which is true, he needs to be dumped in 2020 by the electorate and the prosecuted as a former president. Whether he is convicted will be up to a jury and not the current feckless Senate. There’s all kinds of garbage going on inside of this administration from harming the environment, denying the possibility of climate change, playing tariff war with China and Mexico, withholding evidence from Congressional investigations, and so on. Nice bit of news, the nationwide polling indicates that DDT is way behind Biden and behind all of the significant Democratic candidates. At least now, it suggests that DDT will lose in 2020. Let’s hope. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

11 June: It is starting. The end is starting, or the beginning is ending, whatever! The House has voted to enforce subpoenas for White House officials. This could get interesting. Wait and see. Also the DOJ has released documents backing up the Mueller report. But, the Whitehouse may still block it by requireinbg a prior review. USA Today says that Impeachment would send DDT and his ego into a tailspin, while “The Hi;;” says that impeachment will serve to reelect DDT. Which is right? I suspect the latter is closest to right, since it will make DDT play the part of poor victim. As of right now, Biden leads DDT by a landslide in a new national poll (The Hill). Sounds good to me. We still have DDT playing the tariff game, but now back with China again by threatening a head of state, “If Xi does not show up, then the tariffs are back”. Meanwhile China is threatening to cut off the US from its supplies of “Rare Earth metals”. This would be a disaster for the US. The US government has been warned of this possibility for years and done nothing about it. Perhaps with panic, domestic production will be restarted in a few years. Meanwhile there will be major industrial and military problems. Smart move DDT. Lock up crooked DDT with his creepy Cabinet buddies and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

10 June: John Dean has testified (think Nixon) to the House committee. A bit of historical perspective that should have just been interesting and perhaps instructive. But, the Republicans could not resist making jackasses of themselves. One of then when asked about the Mueller report answered that he has not read it because he no longer believes in investigations (brilliant). Missouri senator, Josh Hawley, says it’s a waste of time to study history because it was a long time ago. He is 50% right of course. That gets him an F in this course. What an idiot, DDT’s trade war has pushed the Chinese currency down against the dollar and now DDT is complaining about the loss of the Yaun's value (Unfair, so more tariffs). Whoopie, Kellyanne Conway has never been disbarred and threw this at John Dean. John Dean has not persistently lied with a high-speed lip, one lie after another with no shame. She should be disbarred and disgraced. DDT is going to make abortion an issue of the 2020 campaign. That’s good because he is one. His presidency needs to be aborted in 2020.

9 June: I've been gone again for a bit, so I missed 7 and 8 June. Now that I'm back, the daily summary of all the snark that's fit to write will continue. OK, 5% is gone, well temporarily postponed, but only if Mexico does a really outstanding job at blocking migrants seeking to go to the US. Good luck Mexico with a woefully understaffed immigration bureau. Plus, there is this mysterious agricultural deal that Mexico denies and DDT trumpets. I believe Mexico. The deal seems the same as one negotiated last March, but who is noticing the small discrepancy. Who you might ask? Well the NY Times for one. NYT promptly received a DDT blast for fake news at a failing (highly successful) paper. The orange poseur strikes again. Of course, DDT playing with tariffs as a weapon is risking our economy is a very big way. We are dependent on China for many things that cannot be made here at all. Keep it up, and we may be out of luck for acquiring materials and components needed for our economy and even the military. Biden is slipping in the Iowa polls, but still well ahead, while Buttigieg is climbing. Oh well, it is a long way to go and Buttigieg would certainly be an acceptable choice from a policy and competence perspective. At least he is not a lying, cheating, backstabber as is a certain orange colored individual. DDT is happy TO HIT China with even more tariffs if things don’t go his way. DDT is happy, since he believes China is paying the cost instead of reality, the US consumer. The new taxes are bigger than the tax cut and it’s the middle class being hit the hardest. On the science side, DDT is mixing up the Moon and Mars, small mistake that will not hurt anything, but on the other side, good old orange man is taking away one of the most powerful modern tools for fighting disease, fetal tissue. Hopefully just 1.5 more years for this horse’s ass. Lock up crooked DDT and his creepy buddies up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

6 June: The stuffed turkey (or penguin) appeared in London wearing a tux that did not come close to fitting. He cut a ridiculous figure completely in step with his personality. What a joke that DDT represents the US. Meanwhile, the Mexico tariffs (5%) are supposed to go into effect on Monday, which is basically a tax on everyone, especially on the not so rich. Now he’s giving a speech at D-Day ceremonies, which he will probably botch unless he sticks to the pre-written script. Apparently he did OK reading Roosevelt’s words. Enough for today. DDT sucks the oxygen out of the room. Mueller and others are still resisting testifying at the instruction of DDT. Pelosi has it right, she says, “I don’t want him impeached, I want him in prison”. To me, that would be justice. Lock up crooked DDT and his creepy buddies up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

5 June: Just a quick disappointed comment. I left everyone the simple task of getting the world’s problems straightened out. But, surprise, almost everything is as bad as it was near the end of May. Immigration is not solved in the US and Europe, Brexit looms with the EU under attack from within, the middle east is still a mess, global warming continues unabated, DDT is still the abusive tweet machine, and Venezuela is unresolved. The best positive thing is that even Republicans are becoming upset with DDT’s tariff-threat diplomacy with his attempt toforce Mexico’s policy of limiting refugee migration to the US border. All kinds of other things are happening including the Democratic primary candidates starting to attack each other. This is good, since it sorts out idealism from being able to get progress made. The problem is will the “Bernie people” again refuse to vote in 2020 as they did in 2016 for anyone except Bernie or Warren. They are apparently satisfied with 4 more years of DDT if their “man” is not put forward. Schumer went after DDT for his threat followed by backing off to solve the Mexico drug plus immigration problem, and DDT respondedby the deep thought comment calling Schumer creepy (now that’s really productive). Another positive note is that the House has passed a bill addressing the “Dream-act” people problem. Job growth has finally slowed to near zero – watch out investors! Lock up crooked DDT and his creepy buddies up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

 

23 May: This is my last comment until 4 June. By then I expect that the country will be run again with all its myriad problems solved. By then, DDT will have received effective psychiatric care and have become a normal, honest, caring individual, a valuable member of the human race. I have full confidence that all this will occur by 4 June. If not, I will be back with snarky summaries of the day's events. In the meantime, JA (Assange) has been charged with 17 new criminal accounts including espionage. Perhaps DDT is next. Oh good, now it’s crazy Nancy, yeah, crazy like a fox, especially in comparison to crooked DDT. What? Nancy P got angry at Kelly Anne Conway, that inveterate truth teller from an alternate universe. How could she. Must have been a bad hair day. Now DDT is giving away 16 billion dollars to the farmers to pay for his trade war with China. It’s amazing the American consumer is now paying twice for the tariffs, once for the tariffs themselves (no DDT China does not pay for them) and once again for the give-away to the farmers in tax money. DDT is essentially buying votes in 2020. One piece of good news, the disaster aid package finally past the Senate. Now DDT has to sign it including the 1.4 billion for reconstruction in Puerto Rico, which he formerly opposed. DDT has just claimed that he is the most transparent President ever. I somehow doubt that except in the sense that we all expect him to lie and cheat, and he does exceed expectations transparently. What a bum. Now DDT is claiming that Rex Tillerson is “dumb as a rock”. Given the success of the man (Rex), somehow, I doubt that. DDT on the other hand has been a rank failure and cheat. Personally, I think the dumb rock is DDT. Sorry rocks. Real rocks are the foundation of our civilization, unless you are throwing them at someone or something. Lock up crooked DDT and his creepy buddies up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

22 May: DDT had a real temper tantrum when Pelosi and Schumer visited him in the White House. A real fall on the floor and kick your heels tantrum. “I am not going to talk with those no-good democrats as long as they are looking into my ever so obvious crimes”. Crooked DDT is trying to avoid getting some new orange clothes after the next election along with exposure about how non-rich he is compared to really rich people. He’s a loser, and he knows it. Thank god that Pelosi prayed for him and the United States. At least the US needs those prayers. Yay…New York State passed a law allowing congress to access DDT state tax returns. They are not as complete as the Federal, but it is a start. What? DDT is releasing John Walker Lindh early. OK…he has served most of his sentence because of his deeds as a member of the Taliban including his role in killing a CIA agent, but watch out for the unrepentant potential terrorist. Of course, one always hopes that he’s renounced violence, but religious fanatics rarely do. Fun and games: An internal IRS memo asserts the legality of congress seeking to examine DDT’s tax returns. Of course, the Munchkin claims the memo ain’t so, “It’s illegal to give the returns to congress” even if the constitution clearly says it is mandatory. What else is new from this crooked cover-up administration? Lock up crooked DDT and his creepy buddies up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

21 May: We used to have a real horse’s ass in Virginia, Ken Cuccinelli (KC), who as Virginia's Attorney General attempted to really restrict women and also to suppress voting. Needless to say he failed. Now DDT has appointed him to the Department of Homeland Security to fix DDT’s failed immigration problem. Good luck DHS. This will be disruptive, will make headlines, and will fail miserably. Now our Attorney General, Barr, is going after Federal judges for doing their jobs. Barr doesn’t like that the judges issue injunctions against the President’s misguided frequently unconstitutional policies. DDT is back to the lock her up chant, while I think we should lock him up for major crimes that are gradually coming out into public view. Given the behavior of DDT, impeachment is becoming more and more likely. Pelosi feels that such action will distract from investigating DDT, but I am changing my mind and think that the time has come to go after him and get the facts out. Right now we have the most massive coverup of misdeeds in modern history, a coverup that Nixon could only dream about. This thanks to Barr who claims he is only protecting the office of President and not DDT. Yeah, I really believe that. Lock crooked DDT up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

20 May: Presidential hopeful Buttigieg’s sit-down with Chris Wallace on Fox news caused a major irked reaction from DDT. Why..simple--- Buttigieg outpolled DDT and grabbed headlines. Basically Buttigieg ripped into DDT and the goings on by Republicans, and this on Fox News, DDT’s favorite channel for watching news that compliments himself. And, while DDT was not looking a federal judge ruled against DDT about the House’s subpoena for financial records by the House Oversight Committee. Now comes the appeal. The goal as articulated by DDT is to delay until after the 2020 election. For DDT delay is victory, unless of course, he loses the election. Then it might be orange clothing and free “food”, no more burgers and fries. IN the same vein, Don McGahn has been ordered not to testify in front of the House committees. More delay. The stock market is down, Ford is laying off a lot of workers, the loss of China trade is starting to hit home, and there’s dangerous weather forecast for the mid-west. And, if you are in a same sex marriage, then your kids might not be citizens. Strange. Lock DDT up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

19 May: It’s Sunday, so not much happened today. DDT threatens nuclear war. More precisely, if a war starts it will be “ the end of Iran”. As with moist things DDT it is a threat and bluff game. The threat is real enough, but follow through is highly unlikely. In this case, no war is a good thing. Not that Iran doesn’t deserve punishment. Ever tightening economic sanctions will do nicely. Way to go. Romney showed he has a bit of spine left, saying that he is opposed to the Alabama abortions law since it goes too far. It’s only a bit of spine, since really Alabama should stay out of controlling women’s bodies until there is a real government interest – perhaps a viable child. Even DDT says it went too far. Romney, of course, timid soul that he is, refuses to givce even remote backing to doing anything about the corked tyrant we have as President. Europe is in more trouble with the ascendency of the far right in its politics. The European far right is openly anti anyone that looks or behaves even slightly differently than they think proper. And, of course, they are bringing the Jewish lie to the fore by claiming plots on the part of Jews to overthrow the European culture. It’s just amazing how powerful how a very small minority can control the world. It’s an old anti-Semitic argument that was used by the Nazis and others before them. The sad thing is that DDT admires the right-wing destruction of the European Union in favor of Russian dominance. Time to go DDT. Lock DDT up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

18 May: It’s Saturday, a day off from work, so I will be kind to all those that remotely deserve a lack of snark. One such person is actually a Republican in Congress, Justin Amish, who came out calling for DDT’s impeachment. It’s not the impeachment call I am praising, but just the recognition that DDT is dangerous and that the country needs protection against this would be dictator with his toadies in Congress and the Justice Department (William Barr). Barr is now culling his staff to remove people who might think of country first ahead of protecting the I-Would-Be king (DDT). Joe Biden is now really in the race to be President and is preaching unity. It’s a good goal and I hope he can pull it off, bit I sincerely doubt he can. Until the Republicans are beaten into the dust during an election and the old-style fiscal conservative, free trade, honest government types re-emerge. Bernie Sanders wants to ban charter schools, not just the bad ones, but all of them in one shot. This is as stupid as Betsy De Vos and her goal of destroying public schools. Leave to Bernie is why we want someone like Biden who will not be trying to cause havoc. DDT us at it again calling treason for anyone that participated in investigating the shenanigans that passed for his campaign. The Mueller report was actually very convincing that he impeded justice and had connections with Russia. Lock them up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

17 May:  Missed a day. Sigh. Nothing new really that I cannot talk about tomorrow. Lock DDT up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

16 May: DDT’s new immigration plan is elitist to say the least, but is not actualy a plan that can be implemented in legislation. I suspect that it is not real, but is an election ploy to play to his base and some independents who are rightly alarmed by the flood of immigrants at our southern border. DDT’s immigration policies have failed, and the new approach is a “shiny nickel in the grass” approach meant to distract from that failure. A simple solution would be to reverse the order of asylum cases to last in first considered (small waiting time) instead of the current order of first in first considered with a current 5 to 8 year wait. The China trade talks are foundering as both sides play games to see if there is some advantage to be had. Meanwhile the DDT administration has effectively increased taxes on all Americans by billions of dollars, a tax increase that disproportionally affects the poor and middle class. The wealthy really do not care if the prices at Walmart increase. Of more concern are the price increases affecting US business that engage in export. This will hurt our trade balance and cause job loss. Chelsea Manning is back in jail again for refusing to talk about Wikileaks to a new grand jury. Hey. It’s free food and housing. Well not so free this time, since there are large daily fines in the offing after 30 and 60 days. BREXIT boils on. Who says there are only idiot in the US causing problems. Our idiot-in-chief is playing a dangerous game with Iran that could spin out of control at any moment. DDT is being pushed by Bolton and Miller into a position where a small mistake by either the US or Iran could be a disaster. Lock them up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

15 May: Once again Alabama leads the nation in discrimination against women and anyone that looks different than a white male. The new Alabama abortion law is draconian, punishing women regardless of circumstances (rape and incest) with jail time. Of course, the object is to get it into the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v Wade. Pretty soon you will lose your freedom too in the ensuing theocracy. Don’t believe it, read the Handmaiden’s Tale (or watch the movie) and you may see the future. DDT is changing immigration policy to emphasize education over family. Now DDT is withholding from Congress the problems with Iran and the possibility of war. Nice move, DDT. It’s time Congress got rid of that horse’s ass, DDT. DDT has also declared a National Emergency in order to ban Chinese telecom and other technology. He is governing by Presidential fiat instead of involving Congress. He may be right in policy, but we do not live ruled by a king or dictator. Guys, get rid of that insidious danger to our form of government – impeach and convict. Senators please get a backbone ant think of country first. Lock him up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

14 May: Well waddoyaknow, DDT jr has agreed to testify in front of the Senate committee after advice form Lindsey Graham to take the 5th amendment (against self-incrimination) instead of answering questions. As Graham said, “take the 5th and it will be over in a few minutes”. Lindsey has a new title, Chief Sycophant. It fits him well, perhaps a little loose around the shoulders. DDT wants to spend more of the taxpayers money to pay for his tariff war, more money to bail out farmers who would normally sell soybeans to China. China now gets their soybeans from Brazil. That soybean customer is gone forever even after the tariffs are lifted (if ever). Perhaps a better method would be to require that China buys an almost equal amount from the US in order to sell here. If they do not, then only permit unfinished raw materials in for manufacturing here. Chalk one up for privacy advocates, San Francisco has banned facial recognition cameras. So, also chalk one up for criminals. Facial recognition technology should be controlled not banned. Perhaps we should ban fingerprinting and DNA analysis also. Both are an invasion of privacy. Don’t look now, but the ingredients for war are right in front of you with a very belligerent Iran and a bumbling US President. Hopefully, DDT continues is cowardly bluffing ways and nothing stupid will happen. Right now Iran is blaming the US for the attacks on the oil tankers as an excuse for war. The Ayatollahs have learned well, lie early and lie often until the lie becomes fact. Reminds me of DDT who today was mocking political rivals at an official event. The mouth never stops moving even if nothing meaningful comes out, just Sound and Fury. Lock him up and throw away the key, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

13 May: Too bad you guys in the stock market (Dow plunges over 600 points today and over 6% in 6 days), but just remember it’s only money. It may be your pension that is getting clobbered, but what does DDT care. According to him, “we are in a strong negotiating position” with China, so you pensioners, farmers, and general workers, get with the plan or lack of plan. Said one would be dictator to a real dictator (Hungary's Orban), “you have done a tremendous job” destroying democracy, subverting the European Union, and favoring Russia. What a guy! Of course, DDT is not the only nefarious player in the game. Our AG William Barr has appointed a prosecutor to investigate the FBI and its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. DDT has pushed the military to hit money Congress allocated for the Afghan war, missile upgrades, spy planes and other projects to pay for 80 miles of stupid wall. In the middle east, initial US analysis seems to link Iran (surprise) to the attack on Saudi oil tankers as DDT bellows threats of “They’re not going to be happy”. OK…No party hats for them. Meanwhile Venezuela’s opposition is requesting US military support against the Maduro regime and its Russian and Cuban supporters. Good luck with our short attention span DDT. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

 

12 May: Tomorrow two sycophants are visiting together, DDT and Victor Orban (Hungry). There are some differences. Orban has succeeded in taking over all of the press and tv stations to become government mouthpieces. He has subverted the court system to the point where there is no check on power. He has taken over the police and investigative arm of the government. These are only aspirations for DDT who wants this kind of control desperately and has made moves to go in this direction. Resistance is more effective in the US, so far, but that may not be the case if DDT is his complicit Republicans continue for another 4 years after 2020. A peek at Hungary will show you how things could be here if DDT is not thrown out of office in 2020. OK, we have a full-blown trade war going with China, which could escalate out of control. It is true that China needs to change is ways and quit its predatory mercantilist mode of trade, especially its stealing of technology. Perhaps DDT’s tariffs will prod them to change. I suspect there are better methods than taxing the American consumer and industry in an attempt to reduce our reliance on Chinese manufacturing. DDT is trying to turn the constitutional crises he is causing into something he can blame on the Democrats. It’s the usual demonization, blaming Democrats for the immigration problem when it is he and his Republican cohorts that are ineffective. Crooked DDT is back to name calling (Sleepy Joe) and claiming that China is looking forward to a Biden Presidency. Not likely, but then again, China where are those tax returns. And then there is the heating up of the situation near Iran with Saudi Arabia claiming that oil tankers have been damaged by a sabotage attack. The last thing we need is a warlike situation with a coward for President like DDT. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

11 May: DDT is threatening China with a worse trade deal during his second term. That would be the least of the world’s worries. The first worry would be DDT in the White House for a 2nd term. Gotta get that piece of trash out of there before he does irreparable damage. It’s almost the case now, but I think that most of it can be reversed at this point with only a small amount of residual damage. There is some real damage already in the balance of power between the President and Congress, but this could be fixed if there is a reasonable President to follow who respects the basic form of our government. It is clear that DDT is trying to “run out the clock” by stonewalling himself and with his current and past employees (McGahn and Mueller) preventing their testimony to congress. The idea is to get it into the courts where the slow process will extend beyond the election day in November 2020. This is consistent with his efforts to get the House to impeach him. The tactic will make him a victim and delay any proceeding against him, especially with McConnell in the Senate. This is a really bad situation. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

10 May: Things are heating up a bit. The House Ways and Means committee has subpoenaed DDT’s tax returns from the Munchkin (Mnuchin). This will probably lead to contempt citations for Mnuchin that will keep him busy for a while. C’mon China, leak those tax returns (only joking, of course). The US and China broke off trade talks after China walked back a lot of agreed to policy changes and after DDT raised the tariffs to 25% with the threat of extending the tariffs to everything that China sells to us. Of course the dumb bunny thinks that China is paying for all of this when instead it is the American consumer. Oh well, you can’t have everything in a President, especially one that does not read effectively. Now DDT is blackmailing Ukraine to dig up fake dirt in Biden and his old nemesis Hillary. The fool will get himself in even more trouble. He’s got Rudi G as the go between man thinking that this will insulate him from conspiracy charges. Good luck, idiot. Apparently, DDT is still obstructing by successfully order Mueller not to testify. C’mon guys, subpoena Mueller. It’s time to get rid of DDT the DAHT in 2020. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

9 May: A new compound word just made it into our lexicon, “self-impeach” thanks to Nancy Pelosi. Old DDT is doing his best to force the House Democrats to start impeachment proceedings. It’s probably part of his game plan to assume the role of victim for the upcoming election. Pelosi knows this and has resisted the temptation so far, but the pressure is mounting. Yesterday part of the Mueller report was read into the Senate record. Listening to the reading and comments made it very clear the DDT has obstructed justice on numerous occasions and still continues to obstruct. It’s too bad the cowards in the Republican Senate put party before country. Ah a DDT incoherent rant accusing Mueller of being in love with James Comey. Old DDT is losing it. Comey does want Mueller to testify about the Russia probe. If it happens it certainly should interesting. That is, if Mueller can force himself to give his opinion. Meanwhile, North Korea festers, Iran fumes, China is retaliating, and Venezuela is in chaos. I’m so glad we have the master negotiator and smartest President ever dealing with all these things at the same time while watching Fox news for 8 hours every day (executive time, so to speak).Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

8 May: Newsflash: DAHT lost more money (1.7 billion) in his business than anyone else in the US over 10 years according to tax returns from the late 80’s and 90’s. DDT described generating those losses (real and imaginary) for tax purposes a “sport”. Most of us would call it tax fraud. I hope they get him for the fraud he’s committed against the US. This week so far, all of us have lost money to rising tariff driven prices and especially if you are in the stock market. Barr is contemptable (news?) and the House is moving forward with a contempt vote. Good. Meanwhile DDT is asking for executive privilege over the entire Mueller report. Good luck, but it will delay things, perhaps until after the 2020 election. The Chicago Tribune says that DDT –“ is the most innocent President EVER”. Nadler is saying that we are now in a constitutional crisis. DDTjr has been subpoenaed by the Senate intelligence committee to discuss the Russian hotel deal. Remember jr, lying to the congress is a crime in itself. The rice pot keeps boiling with China threatening retaliation for the new tariffs. I’m sure they will retaliate and DDT will claim it’s the best retaliation ever (his retaliation when he again raises tariffs). Again more migrants this month. DDT really has a handle on this. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

7 May: Finally, we have the answer about who was responsible for the Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Mitch the Witch McConnell has researched the whole brew (he’s read the Mueller report) and come up with exactly who stirred the pot and got the Russians boiling. No, you are wrong, it is not DDT as might be expected from all the evidence, but instead it is the hapless B. Obama. BO by his reluctance to tilt the election playing field before an election made it possible for the Russians to have so much influence. There is a grain of truth in this. If BO had protested vigorously, the Republicans would have called foul for interfering in the election and perhaps the Russians would have hesitated but not stopped. Moscow, it you are listening see if you can get MC’s emails and release them. Oh, you’ve heard something like this before. Hmmm, I wonder where? The White House (read DDT) has ordered McGahn not to comply with the House subpoena, and McGahn has invoked the justice department has justification for not complying. More and more the Republicans are just begging for House impeachment proceedings. China and the US are talking after China balked at the almost complete trade agreement. The agreement as previously written and agreed to would have reduced the operations of government owned Chinese industries and reduced the graft rampant at the top of the government. This caused calls from highly placed Chinese to renegotiate the agreement to the consternation of the US. Of course, DDT likes to threaten, so on comes the 25% tariffs. Brilliant. This basically gives the Chinese the excuse to resist, since the tariffs will do more damage to the US than to China even if China’s growth rate slows a bit. Our consumers will pay a consumption tax and our exports will increase in price because the imported materials in our products will cost more. Good or bad news, Pelosi has issued an impeachment warning while saying, “Every day he’s obstructing justice”. It’s not just during the period covered by Mueller. The idiot-in chief has now called for extending his presidential term by 2 years (no election involved) to make up for the 2 years it took Mueller to investigate. Just what we need, a broken constitution and a de-facto dictator. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

6 May: The “verdict” is in. DDT is guilty of obstruction of justice, or at least that is the opinion of hundreds of prosecutors who say that if he were not president, he would have been charged. Of course, to be fair, even those prosecutors would admit that there would have to be a trial to establish actual guilt. Then again, who needs to be fair in a situation like this one where DDT is squirming and plotting to withhold documents and evidence from Congress aided by his henchmen, Barr, Mnuchin, and of course the ever-crafty shifty eyed McConnell. McConnell of Garland infamy, who just announced that any legislation originating in the House would not be even considered in the Senate. Where did we find these characters, in central casting? At least the Chinese are more or less ignoring DDT and still coming to the trade negotiations in the US. Tariffs of 25%, guess who has most of the pain? Well, not China, it’s the US consumer and economy. DDT seems to have the idea that China pays those tariffs. No, it’s not China dummy, it’s the US in the form of a consumption tax, and it’s not the rich, but rather the regular person buying stuff at Home Depot and the like. Amazing, the Gallup poll finds DDT’s approval rating at an all time high. It’s discouraging to watch my fellow countrymen opt for a tin horn dictator instead of a responsible leader in the democratic norm. Meanwhile, Mnuchin is withholding the tax returns, Barr refusing to testify, and DDT trying to prevent Mueller from testifying. Then, there are the McGahn notes assiduously taken during conversations in the White House (think Nixon tapes) with a government lawyer when DDT was actively trying to do illegal things and obstruct justice. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

5 May: As it says in the headline above, “Stupid is as stupid does (or dumb is as dumb does), and DDT has done stupid in a big way. As of this writing the stock market DOW futures have dropped 450 points pointing to a big sell-off tomorrow (Monday) based on DDT’s imposition of 25% tariffs on China plus China saying it may cancel trade talks based on the threat of tariff increases. What a great negotiator we elected. It’s time to get rid of him and have negotiating go back to less dramatic moves. DDT is up to his usual steady reasoning, first he should (testify) and then he should not (Mueller that is). DDT is afraid that Mueller will forcefully contradict Barr in front of the House Judiciary committee. How embarrassing. We have a new nominee for head of ICE (immigration) who is the former chief of the border patrol and a fan of building the useless wall. Most of the illegal immigrants enter legally at the official border crossings and apply for asylum. A wall will just intensify the flow at the legal crossings. Smart move DDT. DDT is tweeting support for the extreme right-wing nut jobs that preach hate for anyone that looks different from themselves, and have now been banned from Facebook. I say, “too little and too late”, but I also say, “better late than never” along with “a stich in time saves nine”. What the last one has to do with anything, I do not know. There are additional hateful characters preaching violence out there that need to be banned, and not just in the US. Oh goodie, DDT is planning to deport legal residents if they use public assistance such as food. That is the most humane thing DDT has done during his presidency. What a joke. Boeing now says that the disabled warning for faulty sensors was OK. You could safely fly the aircraft without them unless you were unlucky like Indonesia and Ethiopia. Of course, only about 300 people got killed out of nearly 8 billion on the planet, so it’s a negligible problem, right? And Boeing did not bother to tell the FAA about the problem. I’m so glad our major corporation are on the outlook for consumers. This, along with de-fanging the consumer protection agency so as to leave it up to companies to look out for our safety is a crime in itself (think of the recent baby stroller crashes). Timne to get rid of the evil clowns and their boss, DDT. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

4 May: Today Joe B called DDT a clown. I seriously object on behalf of all good-natured clowns and buffoons. This moniker seriously underwhelms the real situation. DDT is no clown. He should be taken seriously as an ignorant mendacious menace to our system of government and free way of life. DDT is an appointer of judges that believe in an imperial presidency and are intruders into your bedroom, an Attorney General (Barr) that has subverted his office, consumer protection heads that are anything but protection for consumers, a real clown and sycophant to the Fed (both failed), a head of interior who is a despoiler of lands, a press secretary that lies and then lies about lies, a foreign policy advisor that is hell bent on war, etc. One could go on with a longer list, but why bother. The bottom line on this administration and its henchmen in the Senate (so-called majority leader, Mconnell) is that we need a total overhaul in 2020 to restore sane and responsive government. DDT has openly mumbled that he can stall the Democratic push for his tax returns until after the 2020 election in November. Plus, he seems to be doing everything he can to push the Democrats to impeach him in the house. If so, it would create good press for DDT making him into a victim. Better route is to continue the investigations, make the findings public, and issue a censure. Pelosi is right. Stick to the issues, win the election, and don’t afford DDT a new public forum. He’s already using the “I am a victim strategy” based on Barr’s interpretation of the damning Mueller report. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

 

3 May: Shocking. Pelosi calls Barr a liar and White House retorts numbly, “It’s beneath her office”. This must be the first time (today) that the White House has claimed someone or something was improper and part of a witch hunt. Of course, DDT was right all along, it was a witch hunt, and the hunt found a witch (a male witch – Title IX) who couldn’t be prosecuted, for now. Meanwhile DDT gave Putin an effective go-ahead for Russian meddling in the 2020 election during an hour-long phone call with his mentor, Putin. It’s good to know that Russia has only the best intentions with its troops and military equipment in Venezuela. Perhaps Russia needs a small contingent in Florida to protect DDT in Mar e Largo when he loses in 2020. Those pasty Russians could use a big tan. Oh well, if the electorate wakes up in 2020 and votes, 4 more years can be prevented and some of the damage to the US can be undone. Poor Joe B. He has lost the touch (I hope), or at least the right to touch people he comes in “contact” with in his job. That said, among the Democratic hopefuls, he is the only one that seems to have policies that include the entire Democratic party and would appeal to many “independents” as well. Plus, He’s giving DDT fits. DDT tried the “Sleepy Joe” moniker only to find out that Joe was anything but sleepy. He bit DDT’s head off suggesting that it was time to get the sleaze out of the White House and government. I wonder what Joe was referring to, any ideas. It’s taken 16 years for the Hubble Space telescope to assemble a picture of 265,000 galaxies, but only one with that lying idiot DDT. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

2 May: Pelosi is accusing Barr of committing a crime, namely lying to Congress. Did he lie, damn right he did by any normal person’s standard. Could he weasel-lawyer his way out, who knows. Bottom line on Barr, his reputation is shot as is almost anyone who comes in contact with DDT. Already the Republicans are parsing his response to the Senate Judiciary committee to make it appear that he was just answering a specific question, namely did anyone on the Mueller team object to his 4-page summary. He answered NO. I guess Mueller is not on the Mueller team, so the letter he sent protesting does not count. Slimeball answer. The House Democrats are trying to get Mueller himself to testify. That might be interesting. Oh goodie, DDT has now given Border Patrol agent the power of judges giving them the authority to decide asylum claims on the spot. I have to admit, that will clear up the backlog of cases, but I cannot see how an agent can decide. “Hi dude….I don’t see any bullet holes….Nope, no asylum”. It’s quick and efficient. Oh No, not another one. Mike Bennet (Senator for Colorado) is announcing that he too wants to run for President. That makes 21. The republicans in the Senate have failed to reverse DDT’s veto about staying in the war in Yemen despite the Saudi intentional targeting of civilians. This whole administration is so corrupt it makes me sick, especially at the vile prospect of 4 more years. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

1 May 2019: The fed spoke common sense and the stock market took a dive. Just as I expected. More interesting is that the AG Barr is refusing to testify in front of the House committee after a less than stellar performance in the Senate. The bottom line on Barr is that he misled the Congress (lied) and obfuscated the facts with his answers. Perhaps he should resign or be impeached. Meanwhile, Biden is chewing away at DDT’s support and taking press coverage away from DDT. His slogan: Truth over lies. It’s been a while. This alone should cause a barrage of tweets from the twit in chief. Hillary’s being funny, saying “China if you are listening, why don’t you get Trumps tax returns?”. Good joke even if I think it would be a bad idea. Venezuela is getting to be a serios problem with the failure (for now) to recruit the military to help throw out Maduro. Guaido remains defiant after the failure, but in a more precarious position. I cannot believe it, according to news reports, its been 2 years since James Comey got fired by DDT. It’s definitely time we returned the favor and fired the incompetent lying crooked dumb orange twit-in-chief (I’m running out of adjectives) DDT. We cannot afford 4 more years after 2020. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

30 April: Idiot in chief is at it again, interfering with the Federal Reserve Bank. It would be Ok if DDT were just expressing an opinion about his preferences for FED action, but, no, he is pushing to dictate policy by attempting to stack the Fed board with sycophantic incompetents. This to get the growth rate up to where it would help him win elections but would also damage the country. Sigh, will Venezuela lurch into civil war. It certainly turned violent today with a military vehicle slamming into protestors causing serious injury. CNN reported that Maduro was preparing to leave for Cuba, but that the Russians talked him out of leaving (for now). Let’s hope that this transition can occur peacefully or at least without war. Recently in the news it appears that the Koch Brothers are against the infrastructure bill. Instead, they say, get rid of the pollution and other environmental regulations and the bridges and roads will take care of themselves (by use of magic?). The only thing that the Kocheyed brothers are interested in is lining their own pockets at the expense of everyone else. The scary thing is that the Kocheyed brothers also do a few good things such as supporting NPR and Public TV and some science projects. Do they use some of their billions to help take care of creating opportunities of others (help with education, for example)? The answer is not much. Good news. GOP support for Moore at the Fed is dwindling. I guess Moore is Less instead (too bad his mother did not know). It looks like Deutsche bank has been cooperating with House committees on DDT’s finances for quite a while. DDT threw a fit and started a lawsuit to stop the cooperation. It’s the usual tactic of our crooked President. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

29 April: Rod Rosenstein resigns. I wonder what is behind that and whether we will ever find out. It is interesting that Biden is n campaign mode ignoring the other Democrats and ignoring the feeble jabs of DDT. Biden really got under DDT’s skin. We know this because of the volley of vitriolic tweets that soon followed. Biden was dismissive. Smart move. Biden is going after the working man and his condition. Good for him. DDT promised the world and delivered little. Moore, DDT’s putative nominee for the Fed, has run into trouble for his past writings. Good for us. The jerk is committing nomination suicide. Headline on Fox news is that Democratic states are requiring release of tax returns in order to get on the ballot in 2020. Good idea. I want him out by action of the voters. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

28 April: DDT has really done it this time. It’s hard to believe. He came out in favor of vaccination for measles. Take the MMR shots. This is in stark contrast to his previous anti-vaccination statements just after he was elected. Hopefully, he means it this time and simply did not misread his script. Our fealess AG (Barr) is refusing to testify in front of congress, warning Nadler (chairman) that he won’t stand for a lengthy hearing. I guess he wants 10 minutes in and out in line with his 4-page summary. Nadler is hanging tough, saying that Barr cannot dictate the format of his committee’s hearings. Good for you, Nadler. Hold Barr in contempt if he refuses to appear. A short bout in orange clothing might change his mind. DDT’s lackey in the senate, Lindsey Graham cracker, apparently does not care if DDT attempted to thwart justice by trying to fire Mueller. It’s good to know that his pet dog is well trained to bark and roll over on command. The cracker has is belly up for scratching. Ugly. On “Face the Nation” he claimed that his master, DDT, has done nothing wrong in contrast to Bill Clinton fooling around with his intern, Monica. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Ouch…That’s an ugly thought image. Of course, DDT’s grabbing women by their genitals, well that’s OK according to the cracker. OK, I have got to be fair. LG also came out against Kushner's assertion that the Russians did no harm in 2016, and came out in favor of continuing an investigation. Of course DDT refuses to accept that the Russinas did anything to interfere in the 2016 election. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

27 April: Interesting reading about some people who are pro-DDT. They seem to be willing to put up with the devil to further one or more of their narrow interests, selling their souls for getting a wish granted. It’s a classic mythic morality story, but one with very real consequences in our world. In the mythic story, the consequences are usually postponed to the indefinite future, but in our real-life story the consequences are present and dangerous. In this case, it is mostly about restricting abortion rights for other people, getting the right to discriminate, especially against women, and a narrow definition of morality and the “right” religion. It is pathetic to realize the length that some people will go to sell their souls to oppress other people who may be slightly different from themselves. One can look at history to see the effects of such attitudes, from lynching on racial grounds, burning at the stake over religious differences, starting wars to retake the holy land or spread an economic doctrine, to the modern horror of gassing people (Jews, gypsies, and certain Christians) during WW2, genocide in Cambodia or bombing churches in Sri Lanka and in the US. Four more years of DDT and we may see some form or more of the above horrors here in the US and in other western countries. DDT spews hate and division as a product of his overwhelming need to satisfy his ego. He is the inciter of the mob. The key to all this is defying the rule of laws designed to protect individuals and minorities from the rule of the mob. If you are in the mob, all seems well and justified, that is until the mob turns on you.

In the news, it appears that the AH’s in the NRA are at each other’s throats over money and mismanagement. Oliver North against Wayne LaPierre over extortion and fraud. Nothing new here with these two, but then comes DDT to step in and curry favor with the fading clout of the NRA. He will get some votes that way, but hopefully he will also galvanize even more voters to come out against him. In typical fashion, DDT is getting defensive and stonewalling and threatening lawsuits against those investigating his incompetence and willful misdeeds. By keeping it up, he may wind up getting impeached in the House, but probably getting off the hook in the spineless Republican dominated Senate. I suspect he’s making a calculation abut whether being in the news all the time, even negative news, will serve him well in 2020. Of course, there is the persistent stupidity, like his claim that he would not fire Mueller because, well because “firing people is bad”. Right. I believe that BS. Among the good news recently is that a parrot in Brazil (parrot now in custody) warned drug dealers of a raid and now refuses to talk, plus the universe may be younger than we thought by about a billion years. I’m not sure what all this has to do with daily life or the vote in 2020, but at least it is interesting unlike the squirming of DDT. Lock him up, When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! TBO.

26 April: OK DDT is dangerous. Dangerous to our way of life as a free secure people. He’s Donald the Menace (DM). Why you might ask. Well, to be brief, it is the possibility of 4 more years where it may not be possible to undo the damage he causes. Not the least of the damage is the appointment of 2 more extreme right-wing judges. These appointments are not accidents. There is an organization out there, mainly the Federalist Society, that has prepared lists of really conservative justices who are bent of deconstructing government, government regulations, and all sorts of protections that we have come to expect in our lives. Two current justices are getting really old (RBG is 84 and frail). Imagine if the balance becomes 7 conservative ideologues to 2 liberals, then the vote of a sensible conservative (John Roberts) will make no difference. If you want to get rid of medical care, consumer protection, privacy concerns, clean water and air, and constantly increase the military budget, then do nothing and you will reap the rewards and have nothing. The goal is to return to the 1920’s when there was unfettered capitalism that almost destroyed the country through monopolistic exploitive behavior. We had the depression, which caused the judges of the time to relax their ideas and allow worker’s rights, the 40-hour work week, Social Security, and a break up of some of the most extreme monopolies. This may happen again under 4 more years of DDT acting as DM. Just today, DDT is promising to pull us out of the international arms treaty to please the NRA. This is done to help insure his reelection and be damned if it hurts the country. DDT has already pulled us out of the nuclear arms agreement with the result that there is a build up of nuclear weapons and the means of delivery. This situation is unstable and could easily result in disaster through a minor misunderstanding between Russia and the US or some other country with such weapons. More will be joining the club now that DDT has pulled back on the US promises of mutual defense. It’s every country for themselves. Dangerous. Dangerous as only an idiot version of DM could manage. Not to say anything about DDT’s behavior in the office of President showing no restraint for constitutional rules and limiting his own exercise of power. This is heading towards an imperial presidency, which 4 more years will cement, and probable become worse. A long time ago I stated that I would consider DDT’s reign a success if he did not kill 100 million people in some kind of nuclear war. At the time it was meant as a half joke. No more. The joke has turned deadly as have the relaxation of environmental rules, the denial of global warming, and the relaxation of all kinds of protective rules on banking and commerce. DDT (aka DM) has to go in 2020. Bernie followers, please don’t pull the kind of mistake you made in 2016. Vote DDT out of office for whichever Democrat wins the nomination. Wake up people and TBO. Lock him up. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! I TBO

25 April: Amazing! DDT is criticizing and demonizing the democratic candidates. What a surprise. Of course, he is challenged to find 20 demeaning names for all of the candidates like “Sleepy Joe” for Biden. I’m sure he’s up to the task even if he does not know how to b President. Flash news: DDT’s re-election manager says that the Russians never helped the 2016 campaign. Phew. Glad to know I was worried about nothing. Meanwhile DDT is denying that he ordered McGahn to oust Mueller even though McGahn’s (one of DDT’s government lawyers) account has been corroborated by others in the White House. Of course, we believe DDT, that paragon of truthiness. Obscure item in the news is that N. Korea has submitted a medical bill for putting Otto Warmbier into a coma and then returning the dying kid to the US. The news part is that DDT agreed to pay the bill. Of course, that may or may not be true about DDT. I’m sure he will agree or deny it. What a sucker. Lock him up. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! I TBO

24 April: Well Joe you finally did it (on the 25th). Yeah you caught me writing yesterday’s stuff in the morning of the 25th. Biden for President. It’s about time. All you needed was to go down an escalator while announcing. Sigh. I hope you can now get the support and money you will need for the run. Keep your cool with DDT and frame the jerk for the jerk he really is. It’s time for America to dump the evil clown. At least he hit the nail on the head. “"The core values of this nation, our standing in the world, our very democracy, everything that has made America America is at stake," He should have run in 2016, and perhaps we would not have had to suffer 4 years of a jacjass in the White House. In the meantime, we still have to deal with DDT and his ability to screw thigs up for everyone. DDT continues to stonewall all attempts to find out what was going on during the past 3 years and, of course, with his finances during the past 6 years. Hopefully, the Supreme Court will put country before politics when and if this gets to them. We still have the insane nomination of Stephen Moore to the Fed to get rid of, hopefully the way the totally inappropriate Herman Caine nomination disappeared. Moore’s personal and public life present him as a person with a troubled background with biases that cannot be in a person at the Fed, a position that represents all of America. As pointed out elsewhere, neither man has been officially nominated. But, I wouldn’t put it past the clown in the White house, DDT, to stick his thumb in our collective eyes. TBO'

23 April: The Munchkin missed the second deadline for delivering DDT’s tax returns. Claims he’ll mak a decision on 6 May. Delaying tactic to let a lawsuit get started or should Congress hold the munchkin in contempt. I would pick the latter, since I have nothing but contempt for Mnuchin and his boss, DAHT. DAHT met with Twitter today (Jack Dorsey). I wonder if they actually talked, or just sent short messages. Hillary got it right today, saying, “Any other person who engaged in these acts would be indicted”. Lock him up. When do we want it? WE WANT IT NOW! If people were smart, they would not fill out the proposed citizenship question on the census form. Sort of a mass protest whether you are a citizen or not. It seems likely that the Supreme Court will permit the question even though it will likely result in a false census. Brilliant guys. And then there is Jared K, rewriting the history of Russian interference. What a family. Lies, arrogance, and stupidity are theirs. Is it genetic or environmental? In either case, TBO.

22 April: If it weren’t so sad, it would be truly funny. The Democrats are simultaneously squirming and salivating about impeaching DDT. The big thing is it doesn’t matter. Just let the House do its investigations using the Mueller report as a guide. There’s a ton of question to be asked under oath that will further illuminate the sleaze. It’s the illumination that will win at the end of the day (2020 elections). The 35% that furiously back DDT will always back DDT, not because they like the man (some do, of course), but because he makes than feel like they are sticking it to the government. The key is winning the independent voters and getting the democrats to turn out. Of course, it will be necessary to field a candidate that everyone can vote for. Bernie is fun to listen to, but too far to the left. A lot of what he is for has become acceptable now compared to 2016, but there are other things about him that may be a turnoff, particularly his prickly personality. There has to be someone among the 20 hopefuls that can fire up the electorate and bring sanity back to the US. DDT says he’s not concerned at all about impeachment. And, he’s suing the Democrats in court to prevent revealing his financials. Clearly no concern. That’s the purest BS. TBO

21 April: Well, Mueller would not say it, but I certainly can after reading much material from the report and the musings of others that have also read large sections. DDT is in my opinion guilty of obstruction of justice and lying to investigators (“I do not remember”). It may not be the Justice Department’s policy to indict a sitting President, but in this case it certainly presents a roadmap for Congress. One only hopes that they follow the trail and get the facts out. It’s too bad that Mueller could not get the President to testify in person instead of us listening to his lawyers carefully parsed responses. There is also the issue of much encrypted evidence that Mueller’s team could not access. The only remedy now is sworn testimony in front Congress with the threat of future punishment for lying. There is so much material in the Washington Post and New York Times that it will be many weeks before it is fully digested. Congress will be back in session shortly, and the House can continue to investigate despite the mewling of the Republicans. Barr’s reputation has been shredded to the point where he is the walking dead, a sort of legal zombie. He can bite, but not be credible. As always, come 2020, TBO

20 April: How do you spell hero-villain in one word? That word is McGahn. He’s the guy that saved DDT from doing some really stupid illegal stuff (firing Mueller) that really would have put the final nail in his presidential coffin. What is the villain stuff? McGahn is also the man, who with McConnell, has put extreme conservative judges in the courts who really want to undo government. They will plague us for decades. And back to the hero stuff, McGahn took notes that have infuriated DDT because they document the insanity of the ego mongering DDT in the White House. These notes and the notes of other aides form the backbone of the Mueller report. Of course, DDT can’t let the truth stand. He’s busy calling everyone liars (look in the mirror DDT) and taking revenge on McGahn through removing contracts with his law firm. I suspect that neither he nor his law firm really care financially, but the ego driven maniac can’t let it go. It is too bad that Mueller got himself tangled in legalese so badly that he couldn’t come to a firm conclusion. The New York Times has it in a nutshell, “… it’s the same truth that has been terrorizing us all along: Donald Trump’s dirtbag machinations are driven by insane vanity. The First Narcissist’s all-consuming blend of braggadocio and insecurity has turned Washington and its rickety institutions into a dystopian outpost of his id.” The best solution is not necessarily impeachment, but the voters in 2020. TBO

19 April: Some in the House (Nadler) see plenty of reasons that DDT is guilty of obstruction even though Mueller was to cautious to say so directly. His report does say guilty in its detail, just not when Mueller summarizes it. The Mueller cautious summary gave Barr freedom to spin Mueller’s conclusions way beyond what is in the report, namely claiming exoneration. This is definitely not the case. As one news report puts it “Trump is a cancer on the presidency who put his own needs above a nation’s, he must be impeached”. The special counsel’s report is damning. Impeaching is possible but convicting him in the Republican controlled Senate is impossible. The turmoil that a house impeachment would cause is not worth it. Just vote him out of office in 2020 and undo all of the trash. The cancer comes from the constant lying and attempted illegal activity, some in the report and others just seen in public in his tweets and press statements. DDT is a bozo first class, and it is the only first in class he has in his life. Schoolwork was abysmal, his business acumen was a total failure. His biggest achievement was appearing on reality TV and selling his name for buildings. I cannot wait for him to be gone and to get the Presidency back to an institution that works for the US and not for a single person named DDT. It’s too bad that Mueller did not have more courage to call it what is obvious and what would have been criminal for any other person in the US. As always, TBO

18 April: The report has landed. Mueller in his attempt at fairness has not charged DDT with any specific crime, but he certainly did not exonerate DDT. In fact, the report does everything just short of indictment. In some ways it is a good thing not to get into the politics of things (leave that to Congress and the voters), but the report is brutal. Let’s hope, just for history’s sake, that the House has Mueller testify to flesh out the report. Then there is the pile of evidence behind the report, which after all, is just a summary itself. Finally, that toad, Sarah Sanders admitted she lied and that her boss, DDT, lied. Of course, she lies constantly, so nothing new there. Anyone with more than 2 digits in their IQ can look at this report and know we have a stupid crafty criminal in the office of President. There’s lots more going on today with the campaign and in other countries, but that will have to wait until tomorrow. Today, we know what a jerk we have as President (we knew it before, but it’s good to see it written down). TBO

17 April: Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick, the Mueller bomb is about to go off. Off that is, unless black-ink Barr has redacted most of it. I will not really prejudge Barr, but I do have negative feelings about his honesty. DDT on his side has been give a preview of at least part of the report in spite of Barr’s insistence that the White house would not get a preview. Breaking this promise suggests that more chicanery is in the offing. Hopefully, Mueller, when he is called to testify in front of Congress, will set the record straight. So much for DDT’s “Bromance” with Kim who just tested a “powerful warhead”, whatever that means. No matter what it means, Kim just thumbed his nose at DDT while taunting the US. I am so glad that we have a master negotiator at the helm (hahaha). We now have DDT tightening the screws on Cuba as part of the Venezuela operation. He’s basically stopped remittances back to families in Cuba, allowed lawsuits over properties lost to Fidel Castro, plus almost totally stopped improving relations with Cuba. On top of that he’s got a significant Russian presence and Cuban presence in Venezuela. This would be a major problem for a smart person, but no problem at all for a dummy. TBO

16 April: Tick tock Tick Tock….The Mueller report is coming Thursday….. Tick tock Tick Tock . Better be scared old DDT. Oh goodie, our feckless leader has decided to stay in what has become an immoral war in Yemen overriding with a veto the sense of Congress. Sad but true. Fortunately, the French vetoed our idiot’s idea to “water bomb” Notre Dame to put the fire out. You want useless advice on what to do next in your life, you now know where to go. Barr is truly DDT’s creature. He has now ruled that migrants can be held indefinitely in jail, held without the possibility of bail. I suspect that this one will not stand the test of the courts, but it does let us know the state of mind of our AG. DDT is now defining (name calling) his likely Democratic opponents – crazy Bernie and sleepy Biden – they will be running against Dumb Donald all the while lashing out at his favorite news channel (FOX) for hosting Bernie’s town hall meeting. Good for DDT. Even his news channel is not loyal. Oh well, there is only one solution. TBO

15 April: Tax Day. I hope you did yours. I did mine a while ago. The rich took yours and took mine. DDT says its’s just fine. You’ll get the bill in time. The growth of debt is a crime. Who says crime does not pay. It pays, just not for you and me. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, we are waiting for the Mueller report to see how much black ink vs print it contains. DDT is tweeting his gut off. Mostly just vilification without explanation. His specialty. Enrage his base to make his case. Hopefully, there will be enough of us to TBO.

14 April: President “Miller” (PM) has struck again and taken out his frustrations on the officials of the department of homeland security DHS. He’s gotten our acting president to fire the top staff – the urge to purge. President Miller, an immigration hawk, is shaping the immigration policy and getting the legal acting president, DDT, to carry out his policies. Unfortunately, it is not even a good act and DDT certainly does not look Presidential. One of the latest is to deny immigrant any welfare support. Unfortunately for the PM, officials at DHS have been glacially slow to put new regulations in place. The 33-year old PM has little leeway for the rules but has a big temper (tantrum). If it’s money in the 2020 campaign, DDT appears to have things locked up. The nitwit has raised 30 million in just the first quarter of this year. On top of that is all the untraceable money that the wealthy have contributed to non-profit political organizations. This would not be a problem if the electorate would listen to real ideas instead of the BS being dished out by DDT and PM. We still have the Mueller report coming out soon soon soon. Everyone is holding their collective breaths no matter which side of the aisle you live on. It’s Sunday, so things have been fairly quiet on the political front. Of course, there are the usual murders and crises in other countries (Sudan) along with a WWII bomb found in a Frankfurt river. The stock market should be much higher, according to DDT, if only the head of the Fed has listened to him and kept interest rates at almost zero. DDT leave the Fed alone. TBO

13 April: Wouldn’t you know it. DDT is now helping migrants stay in the US. I never realized just how smart this guy really is. What a trick on everyone else, and his political base will never catch on (although Fox news figured it out). Sending illegal migrants to “Sanctuary” cities will actually help th =e migrants stay in the US. Once in one of those cities, they will be free to go anywhere and even ICE will not know where they have moved. So clever, even a 5-year-old could not have figured it out, but President Miller probably whispered in his ear and out brilliant 6-year-old DDT thought it was fine. Ah, the fight continues over DDT’s tax returns with new demands made by the House committee for the returns. There will be a court fight over this with the Supremes getting into it eventually. So be it. While in the meantime the Mueller report, or what is not blacked out, is soon to be released. We need someone who can read between the inkblots to read and interpret the report for us. Perhaps Mueller himself can fill in the missing material. Brewing on is the Barr misdirection looking for spying on the Trump campaign. With so many meeting s with Russians, I suspect there was surveillance. If not, then the FBI was sadly remiss. We need to get rid of these idiots. TBO.

12 April: Looks like Clinton was not the only target in the Russian disinformation campaign to defeat Hillary. It appears that Bernie Sanders was used as a foil. Basically, encouraging Sanders supporters to not vote or vote for DDT. The problem is that the Sander’s campaign knew about this even though Bernie denies it. The evidence is that he did nothing to stop it, did nothing to encourage his followers to vote against DDT, and gave interviews to RT, the Russian English language station. Among other things, Bernie was against the TPP (Trade agreement) that satisfied Putin. DDT is back at it again, reviving the threat to send migrants to San Francisco and other “so-called sanctuary cities”. The six year old in the White house is running rampant in revenge mode. It should be good enough that a US court is allowing DDT to return migrants to Mexico, at least temporarily until further court hearings. Great, DDT told the DHS secretary that he would pardon him if he violates the law carrying out illegal requests from the White House. This is criminal indeed. DDT should be wearing orange as soon as possible for abusing his office and obstructing justice. There’s more, there’s always more, but that’s enough for today. TBO

11 April: The sheer genius (NOT) of DDT. Threatening to move migrants to so called sanctuary cities such as San Francisco so as to punish democrats. What do we have as President, a six year old? Of course it won’t happen. It’s just another one of idiot’s ideas that got him press coverage. All the ness with Barr and the IRS are still pending, so nothing here for today. Meanwhile things are heating up for Assange. The Swedes are considering reopening the rape case and the US has unsealed indictments against him. I suspect he will be in a much smaller room than before, and one without a view. Then there is Avenatti, the former lawyer for ‘Stormy Daniels’, who made such a public figure for himself and now is pretty clearly in big legal trouble for apparently crooked deals. What a dummy, but it makes for lurid reading. He claims ‘Not Guilty’. OK. Way to go SpaceX. Launched a Falcon Heavy and recovered all three boosters. That’s amazing. I cannot imagine NASA pulling this off with one of the big aerospace companies without busting their budget. In the meantime, the background noise continues with DDT flailing all over the place replacing people in government at the behest of “President Miller”. DDT, a man without a mind of his own. Time to TBO

10 April: Brexit extended, at least to the end of October. At least there is some intelligence on the other side of the Atlantic. Not in the UK, mind you, but at least in the EU. The UK needs a second referendum. Of course, the US the AG Barr is playing fast and loose with congress. He’s now opening a distracting investigation to see whether the FBI or spy agencies spied on DDT. Somehow Barr has forgotten that he is AG for the US not for DDT. Oh Boy…The US Treasury department declined the House request for DDT’s tax returns, at least not immediately. This should set up an epic confrontation between the House and the administration. Munchkin (usually spelled Mnuchin) is claiming that the request might not be lawful, even though the law specifically says that it is within the law, and it might be an invasion of taxpayer privacy. Meanwhile the two-year fake audit churns on giving DDT cover, at least in his bombast, for not turning over the returns. I guess if the audit concludes, DDT will want to wait until the ink dries. In celebration of DDT's refusal to recognize man’s (women too) role in climate change, DDT has eased energy regulation while visiting Texas. Don’t worry, it will only lead to a small increase in CO2. As expected, DDT now wishes that it is legal for the military to “rough up immigrants”. Plus, it is now known that he cheats and lies about golf. Nice. Come 2020 or before, TBO.

9 April: Our AG William Barr played congress for the fool today and seemingly got away with it. He is claiming that no one should worry about the lawsuit going through the courts to end the ACA (Obamacare) because in his stated opinion (that he may or may not believe) the case will not be upheld in court, and everything will stay as it is now. Great. When asked why his justice department is pursuing the case when he believes it was a loser, he replied that he was just following DDT’s lead or instructions. This is the worst possible response for an AG that is supposed to be independent of politics. But, the fools in congress ley him get away with it cleanly. More on Barr, the redacted Mueller report is supposed to be released next week. A good measure will be how black each page will be when given to the House to read. The Boston Globe has it right. Barr’s tactic is to spin and delay, and finally obfuscate. Now he’s waffling on whether the White House will see the report before congress. This is important because DDT could bottle up the whole thing for a long time by claiming executive privilege. On the southern front, DDT is denying that he will reinstate family separation. Of course, I believe him, since he always tells the truth about his intentions and does not easily change his mind. Don’t you agree? The head of the IRS was also questioned about the release of DDT’s tax returns and turned a bright purple. Well not really purple, but a slight red in the face that caused him to stiffen and turn away from the committee. That about says it all. Well, Bernie Sanders says he is now a paltry millionaire and will release his tax returns forthwith. Good for you BS, it’s all just smoke anyway, since he does not have enough money to really be a miscreant. The economy is starting slip, job creation is faltering, there is a banking scandal brewing with shaky loans to corporations, and the immigration problem is worse that ever in history (no president has botched the immigration problem as badly as this one, it’s an all-time record) Watch out people, DDT is setting up a situation where there might be war with Iran. Fortunately for us, DDT is both stupid and cowardly, so probably it’s all just hot bluster. One can hope. So in 2020, let’s TBO.

8 April: Poor Nielsen. She acted tough and mean on immigration, did all the right things DDT style, except agree to break the law. Now both DDT and the press are after her for her abysmal performance as seen by the left and the right. Personally, I thought she was inept, but also had an extremely difficult job and no cooperation from the White House. The real President, Miller, wanted her out, so out she is. I will not miss her. What….Republicans are asking that Mueller testify. Are they crazy? I hope that Nadler agrees and gives them their death wish. Now DDT is threatening tariffs on the EU over Airbus subsidies, as if Boeing effectively does not also get subsidies. I agree that the EU is shameless on this, but tariffs? The idiot does not realize that the American people pay those tariffs not the EU. DDT is at it again, firing people right and left. Now the head of the secret service. The goal is to distract the press and get coverage for himself instead of any other people, such as the candidates for the Democratic nomination. It works, because the press are fools in the way they treat DDT. A minor mention on the front page would do instead of the screaming headline that suck the air out of the room. What fun. There is a long-standing personal feud between Jerry Nadler (chairman of the House Judiciary committee) and DDT dating back to when DDT was trying to develop real estate in NYC and Jerry stood in the way because fo DDT’s well known predatory ways. Now, of course, Nadler is keen on getting information about DDT’s taxes and other interesting stuff. The feud goes way back and is intense, so the current standoff shold be interesting to watch as it develops. So far, Nadler has always won. The best solution to this problem is to TBO.

7 April: This week's massacre continues. Kirstjen Nielsen is out as the head of DHS (Homeland Security, or Insecurity, as you wish). She’s been a disaster, but ultimately it is not KN who is to blame, but her feckless leader, DDT. True, she was inept, but then who can be successful following the whims and tweets of DDT? We have a temporary replacement until a political hack more amenable to DDT is proposed for confirmation, perhaps an ex-wife or girlfriend. What a surprise, the White House now says that the House committee will never see DDT’s tax returns. They will fight it all the way to the Supremes. It is possible that this one they may lose, since the law seems to be pretty clear that the committee has the right to see the tax returns. No wonder DDT and Netanyahu get along so well, both seem to be racists when covering their respective hindquarters. I hope he loses to someone less dangerous to Israel. According to DDT, everyone is to stop coming to the US, since the country is full. I do have to admit that during rush hour it seems that indeed at least the roads are full. Perhaps, DDT has a point and he’s trying to solve the rush hour problem. Less people fewer cars and open roads. OK, I can go for that. Chicago fires up again in the warming weather at least in terms of gunshot violence. We need to get those guns off the streets. DDT’s back to name calling everyone he can think of at the moment. He seems to really get into this whenever he has idle time, which is most of the time. Time to TBO

6 April: The DDT is quaking in his loafers. What other shoes would he be wearing during his "executive" time (watching TV). It appears that the Mueller report is not as Barr described. It does not exonerate DDT, nor does it indict him. The latter is mostly because of the nature of Mueller’s task, a report to the justice department and to congress. A partially redacted report with Barr’s fine hand will be available very shortly. The fur will fly. DDT’s income taxes are under siege. DDT refuses to release them claiming that they are under audit. If released it will reveal a lot of the truth about DDT and his businesses, self-serving non-charities and apparent bank fraud. It’s time the IRS finished the audit and release the tax returns. Obama just gave a talk chastising the Democrats for forming a circular firing squad destroying each other. It’s time for finding a candidate that can win. Four more years of DDT is intolerable. The dirtbag recently claimed his powers under the emergency declaration are absolute. He’s crazy and dangerous. It’s time for congress to stop him. ICE (immigration) is claiming that it will take 2 years to find the children separated from their families. Independently of what you think about the separation, losing these kids is intolerable and incompetent. As always. TBO

5 April: Newsflash: DDT resists request for tax returns. The whole country reels in surprise. Lawyers prepare for battle. Do or die all the way to the Supreme Court even though the law is perfectly clear in that the House committee has the total and absolute right to see those returns. As others have observed, the only constant with DDT is that he will lie, lie about lying, and change his mind frequently. To wit, he just pulled his nomination of the head of ICE before the nominee even had a chance at being considered. DDT says he wants a tougher person at the head, Atilla the Hun perhaps. It’s Friday, and I am a bit tired, regular tired and very tired of DDT. It’s hard writing about stupidity, it’s always the same, just boring repetition of one farcical thing after another. There is only one cure for this sickness, TBO.

4 April: BREXIT BREXIT where are you? Theresa has asked for yet another extension until the end of June. Perhaps she should ask for an extension to the end of the upcoming millennia. That would really give everyone time to adjust. DDT going after Joe Biden for abusing women? Hilarious from a man that cannot keep his pants on and his hands off. Bubble boil, a witches brew is coming with the release of the Mueller report. It is starting to look like DDT’s toady, Barr, at the Justice Department fudged just a wee bit. Far from exonerating DDT is looks as if it might be just a bit damning. Even the GOP is starting to realize the potential danger to good old DDT. Now our feckless leader has pushed back the deadline from day after tomorrow to a year from now for closing the US-Mexico border. Harsh punishment indeed, Yawn. Looks like Barbara Bush zapped DDT in her upcoming book. Of course DDT had to open his Twitter mouth and retort helplessly about coming out ahead of one of her sons in the 2016 primaries. Sad, even if true, but who cares. Good news. Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange is being expelled from the Ecuadorian embassy today. I hope he gets what he deserves, free British housing, or even free US housing. Finally. Now if we can just put DDT where he belongs. TBO

3 April: Let’s see, what happened today that’s worth writing about. News Flash: Joe Biden says he will be more careful of personal space in the future. WOW, spellbinding news. I hope this misstep does not deter him from running for and perhaps becoming president. His “sin” compared to DDT’s philandering abusive ways are nothing. Oh. Then some minor news, YAWN, House democrat is demanding multiple years of DDT’s tax returns. Is there fraud here? Not even DDT knows, since I doubt that he read his own tax return. If there is fraud, he’ll blame it on “Lock her up” Hillary. And then there is McConnell’s new rule to speed up the appointment of judges and other nominees. Debate has been cut from 30 hours to 2 hours. Next he’ll do away with even bothering to vote – just hold up your hand if you are in favor and McConnell will make the count come out “right” in 2 seconds flat. Oh and there’s more YAWN news. Republicans are saying there is no need to read the Mueller report. Reading it will just hurt your eyes with all the small print and black redacted smudges. Plus, the only reason for even trying to read it is hurt DDT ahead of the 2020 elections with false accusations. See…nothing much happened this fine sunny day in April. Just more of the same nonsense that has pervaded this administration from closing the US Mexico border, refusing to add manpower at the border where there is a real crises, cutting off aid to Central America, doing nothing in Venezuela, nothing in Ukraine, beating up on our allies, and lying at every turn. TBO.

2 April: It appears that DDT is serious about stupidly closing our southern border with Mexico. If that happens, he will become a politicly casualty. The disruption will be felt everywhere, especially in the states that manufacture stuff – cars, car parts, grocery stores, almost everything. But, DDT is doing his usual, blaming someone else, in this case his claimed do-nothing congress. “Congress must act to keep the border open," he says. McConnel just threw DDT a curveball when he refused to consider legislation to revise the ACA (Obamacare). That hopefully ends that bit of stupidity. On the other side of the pond, Theresa May is thought to be getting ready to ask the EU for yet another extension. Good luck TM, and if you get it, what are you going to do differently. Stick with Einstein TM, stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and thinking that it will turn out differently. BREXIT is a disaster, and nothing you might do is going to change the fundamental mistake that the referendum (with false advocating) produced. Grow up…save the nation, and withdraw the request to withdraw. You will be remembered as a heroine. The House judiciary committee issued a subpoena over the White House games with security clearances given to unqualified people. Nothing new here, just administration people saying “RULES, what rules, rules are for little people”. As always, the best response is to TBO.

1 April 2019: Tragedy is about to strike the United States. I mean real tragedy, something that may take years to recover from, if ever. Thanks to DDT’s threats to close the border, the US may run out of avocado within three weeks. This shortage will strike deep into the psyche of the US, destroying a cultural fixture that identifies our cherished diet. I cannot think of a greater shock for April Fools day. But the Avocado crises is real, along with auto parts, washing machines, and dozens of other stuff. This Biden thing is sad. He has spent his whole life being a touchy-feely person without abusing anyone. Sure, if you play touchy feely with someone who does not like to be touched, you will cause resentment. Does he overdo it, perhaps. Is there a bad motive behind it, I very much doubt it. That said, there is no doubt that the woman, Lucy Flores was and is aggrieved by the event. Unlike many women who are badly abused, Biden had no follow-up with Flores, no chasing, no attempt at personal benefit. It’s time Biden apologized for hurting her, even if he did not realize it at the time. The big battle is over the citizenship question on the upcoming census. The purpose of the question is to cause an undercount in states that tend to have more illegal residents than others, and also tend to be more liberal states. The undercount reduces representation in the House and reduces the Federal payment for services need to sustain the real population. What a jerk you are , DDT. TBO

31 March: The white house is threatening more firmly its idea to shut down tcommerce on the US Mexico border over the hordes of immigrants flooding the US. Of course, if DDT weren’t the fool, he’d put more resources on the border, especially judges to evaluate the claims of asylum expeditiously. But no, it makes better TV ratings for him to just threaten catastrophe, and then at the last minute make more headlines by backing down. Doing something real would not get craven DDT those TV ratings he so craves. The ACA (aka Obama-Care) is on the chopping block with millions likely to lose coverage. No says DDT, we have a plan. Right…what plan. The only GOP plan put forward to cover preexisting conditions will cost a fortune for those that need it, meaning that they will lose coverage. Better not have cancer, heart conditions, etc. or anything else requiring extended care. Hey, a comedian is likely to be the next president of the Ukraine. Well, we have one too who plays the unfunny fool. Let’s hope their comedian is the real thing and not just venally stupid. At least this comedian has the previous experience of playing the President on a TV drama instead of a reality TV game show. One good thing is that coal is disappearing from the US landscape for power generation, The bad thing is that a lot of people are losing jobs over the coal shutdown. The other bad thing is that India and China are stepping up their use of coal far faster than the US is decreasing its use. It shows stupidity knows no nationality bounds. Of course, DDT wants to increase oil drilling and coal use in the US. Perhaps he just wants to keep up with China. Stupid. TBO

30 March: The new-old NAFTA (new name, but almost the same deal) is pending in congress. Congress wants the tariffs lifted on Mexico and Canada first, but DDT is resisting. Hard to imagine why except for his personal ego. He wants the tariffs to try to coerce some other ill-perceived benefit. Real intelligence flies above the fray, but dumb is to the bone, or in DDT’s case, the “huuuge” gut. DDT bl;ames weak immigration law, but refuses to do anything substantive about it except complain and threaten. He’s threatening to pull all financial support from the Central American countries Guatemala, Hondoras, and El Salvador, which will only make the immigration problem worse. Next, he’s planning to close the US Mexico border to commercial traffic to cut off his nose to spite his face (for DDT that might not be a bad idea, sort of urban renewal, where almost any change would be positive) with the idea that it will force Mexico to handle the stream of people heading toward the US border. It will not work and it will cause economic chaos in the US. Hopefully, it is just an empty threat. The judges got DDT again, stopping off-shore drilling in the Arctic. This is one I agree with on many levels, especially since the US and the world does not need the oil. Hmmm…at least one crazy person has recovered a bit and become repentant for some of the really awful things he’s done. I’m talking about Alex Jones of Infowar infamy, a purveyor fo false rumors and slander. Most notably he was the one pushing the conspiracy theory that the parents of the Sandy Hook massacre were faking and lying. AJ is now blaming a medical condition, “a form of psychosis” for his misdeeds. I’ts almost believable if he stops all conspiracy stuff on his website that encourages the other crazies. And then there is the assault on women with the latest attempt at banning abortion the moment a heartbeat can be detected. That’s at about 6 weeks, before a woman even knows that she is pregnant. Hopefully, the courts will strike this down. What is really going on is a backdoor effort to reverse Roe vs Wade. Of goodie, we have comedian leading the election pack in Ukraine. He claims he can tell jokes to Putin to get him in the mood to end the war. Too bad there is nothing funny in the least about DDT and his criminal gang of toadies, or he could charm North Korea or Iran. TBO

29 March: President Chaos reigns supreme. His evil twin, B. DeVos cuts education funding, especially the Special Olympics, and DDT rescinds the cut, his other evil twin, TEA-Party Mullvaney, is cutting social services for a huge number of people. But worry not, the Party of the 1% (GOP) will stay true to its current roots. Medical care, who needs that. It’s much cheaper if you just die early, then Social Security will last longer, and expensive drugs will no longer be needed. It’s the market forces approach. If you can’t afford it, you don’t deserve basic services. There’s lots more to fuss about, but today I am running short of time. Oh yes, his minions are pushing for a new Special Counsel to investigate Benghazi and Clinton’s emails. It must be a case of increasing employment for lawyers. Go for it DDT. Cement your status as the greatest idiot to occupy the office. At least one person is overjoyed that you are President, George W Bush, the inarticulate, has now risen in the ranks. Of course, he was never the mean jerk that DDT is, just misguided by some of the incompetent people around him. Bottom line with today’s bunch, TBO

28 March: Apparently Nick Mulvaney and other trolls inside the White House convinced the woefully ignorant DDT to scuttle the ACA (Obamacare) by opposing the appeal o fthe Texas judge in order to please his screaming base of voters. It made for a good campaign stop, but disastrous public policy. Bit then again, what would you expect from DDT and his trolls. No matter what is in the Mueller report, I want to see it in its entirety and judge for myself. If it exonerates DDT, so be it. That would be a good thing, but somehow, I doubt it. Another whiz bang thought from DDT mocking electric cars at his rally in Michigan. The fool cannot see past the end of his nose. Thank god he is not running a real business. His Michigan rally was the usual bluster and nasty stuff. I hope the nation starts to ignore the clown and wipes him out in 2020. TBO.

27 March: Mueller is “gone”. Folded his tent and stole away into the night, so to speak. Of course, he’s not really gone, just quickly closed up shop and disbanded staff much to the consternation of congress. All of the testifying has been left to the justice department. I suspect the House will call on Mueller to testify. O Goodie! DDT and Comey are clashing over the interpretation of the Barr’s version of the Mueller report. Comey is claiming that the report does not exonerate DDT. This should be interesting indeed. DDT has called for releasing classified documents related to the Russia probe. His mouth is definitely bigger than his brain. DeVos is in front of congressional committees, like a deer caught in headlights, trying to cut the education budget, especially support for the Special Olympics for disabled people. As you might guess there is just a wee bit of opposition. The tariffs or some other factor may have pushed the Chinese to bend on the technology transfer issue, at least on paper. If an agreement can be reached, it remains to be seen if it will work in practice. One can hope. If it works, I will have to give DDT credit (TBD). Of course, DDT and his henchman Mulvaney are pushing to destroy health care in the US for ordinary working and non-working people. The slogan is “repeal the ACA”, but don’t bother with a viable replacement. Go for it guys, and we hope it will bite on in the voting booth come 2020. As always, the bottom line is to get rid of the incompetent bozos in power now, TBO.

 

26 March: Take two aspirin and don’t bother to call me in the morning, that is unless you have lots of money. What am I talking about, well, it is the potential for destroying the ACA and disrupting the medical system in the US, since the Republicans have no replacement. Of course DDT is claiming that he is the leader of the party that is for improved health care. So far there is no evidence of that. It may become the key issue that loses the 2020 election for DDT. Hopefully, the appeals court will reject the Texas judge’s opinion and the issue will become irrelevant. As before, I am holding my political breath pending the release of the Mueller report. I suspect there is stuff in there that is pretty bad for DDT even if Mueller did not find it rises to the level where he had to pursue indictments directly. Meanwhile the press is full of speculation and posturing, which is damaging no matter what is in the report. Apparently, even Barbara Bush, a staunch traditional Republican, would now have trouble being a Republican as defined by DDT. Biden is acting more and more like he is going to run, but I wish he would stop the buts and get his butt in there. In case you have not noticed, Russia has apparently moved military personnel into Venezuela to support Maduro. Unless people are very careful, this cold be explosive. The big question is what, If anything, will DDT do about this new development? According to the news, our trade gap has gone down 15%. Amazing, but welcome. Of course, this could also be part of the general global recession that appears to be starting. All in all, things are going without intelligent direction. The national debt is increasing out of control, proposals are n the works to destroy the safety net for the poor and elderly, the idea of gradual switching to renewable energy is in chaos, and the Democrats are working hard at putting themselves in a losing position. Still, the only path forward is to TBO.

25 March: Barr has delivered a sucker punch to democratic hopefuls. I suspect that Barr is telling the basic truth about the Mueller report. Namely, that there is no prosecutable collusion and no attempt by Mueller to indict DDT for interference in the investigation. What is conspicuously missing was a summary of just what Mueller found in the way of a coverup. This won’t come out until the report is released. Mueller basically said that he would not indict the President but would instead wait for congress to do its job. DDT’s claim of exoneration is probably far from the truth. Aside from the Mueller report there is plenty to worry about with respect to DDT. One of the biggest things is the administration’s decision to back a Texas judge’s dismantling of the ACA (Obama care) medical program and his unethical reduction in Medicare and Medicaid despite earlier promises to the contrary. Of course, there were the promises to balance the budget (all lies), a failure since we have the welfare tax cut for the rich. The national debt is now higher than ever, something approaching over 22 trillion dollars along with a staggering trade deficit over 230 billion dollars. Contrary to promises, illegal immigration is up while DDT refuses to expand the personnel needed to deal with the problem. Basically, we have and incompetent President who is unfit intellectually and emotionally to be a leader of the US. While impeachment is probably a bad idea, the 2020 election gives the country an opportunity to TBO.

24 March: The other shoe has fallen with a plop. Barr has delivered his summary and basically exonerated DDT and his cronies from the charge of collusion with the Russians. If true, this is a good thing. For all the negative stuff about DDT and the unscrupulous people surrounding DDT, it is good that at least one criminal activity appears not to have happened. I am neither glad nor sad about this development. Of course, I want to see as much of the report as possible and draw my own conclusions. I can wait. My god, the New York Post, that bastion of even-handed reporting (NOT), is suggesting that we now investigate Obama and Clinton for starting the investigation. What BS. Meanwhile good people all over the world are doing their usual stuff. A ethnic massacre in Mali with only 130 people killed. The University of Georgia fraternity is being called onto the carpet for racist slurs in a video. Biden is still procrastinating …. come on Joe, go for it. Brexit boils along with huge numbers of Brits marching to have a second vote. Theresa May resists, but will likely be gone in a few days. Then what? It probably will not help given the bloated egos at play. And then there is the clear and present threat of a recession in the US as DDT takes a path that is not sustainable with manufacturing and consumer confidence faltering in the US because of uncertainty and the DDT tariff fight with China. US debt is climbing rapidly thanks to the welfare tax cut for the rich ( an unecessary transfer of money from the middle class to the wealthy). If you like the course we are travelling on, then I hope you like the upcoming recession on your job and paycheck. Not to worry though, DDT’s Great America will ignore you. TBO

23 March: The press is full of speculation today about what AG Barr is going to tell Congress. It is just space filler in newspapers that must write something. I do not want to join the howling mass of reporters and commentators. There are some interesting things going on such as the march in the UK about Brexit, the situation with ISIS and the impending DDT troop withdrawal, the unfolding college admission scandal, the plethora of Democratic candidates and their being forced into extreme political positions, the real climate change problems such as the flooding in the Midwest, the other investigations going on about DDT, and on and on. But, everything is being overshadowed by the impending drop of the other shoe (thump). More details when available. In the meantime, think good thoughts and TBO.

22 March: We are past the equinox. Good deal. It should get warmer soon. I jut thought I would throw that in to the discussion of the fact the Mueller delivered his report. That answers yesterday's question. Sigh…what is in there? Now we are waiting for AG Barr to release some or all of it. A summary was promised this weekend. I’m holding my breath. Whoops. I had to breath. Meanwhile DDT cancelled the sanctions on N Korea that the Treasury Department levied on the same day. Good government procedure DAHT. Never let the people who work for you know what is happening, just tweet, and poof it’s ok, NOT. ICE is up to its usual dumb tricks detaining a legal flight attendant (DACA legal) for over a month. On the other side of the pond, the Brexit deal has an extra month and then it is all over. Theresa is on her last legs with no solution in sight given the big egos at work. Too bad on both sides of the pond that we cannot TBO.

21 March: Mueller, Mueller, where are you. This is one time when we need a small leak just for titillation. Everyone here is sitting around holding their collective breaths just waiting on your report. To damn or not to damn that’s the question. Whether to certify that we have a criminal as President or not. Hopefully, your report will not be a wimp out. Either exonerate the dumb bunny or pillory him. Anything in between will be viewed as a limp handshake, disappointing. Meanwhile the prosecutors in New York are not waiting, That pot is boiling. Between the income tax avoidance and the banking scandals that are brewing in DDT’s future, it almost doesn’t matter what Mueller reports. Remember, DDT looks good in orange. DDT has caused another international uproar by recognizing Israel’s annexation of the Golan heights. Even if justified, and that’s debatable, doing this without consultation with or allies in Europe and Asia is a typical DDT move. Fortunately, it probably does not mean much in the long run, but it does interfere in Israeli elections. The big news that no one is really paying attention to is that the world economy is slowing in Europe, Asia, and the US. How this will play out in the 2020 election in the US is anyone’s guess. Meanwhile we wait in Mueller to TBO.

20 March: Oh poor me (DDT), that bad McCain misled me on the Obamacare vote (so did Sessions on recusal). It’s scary how obsessive DDT’s behavior has become as President. He can’t let go when anyone crosses him and especially has the temerity to die (hard to get even with a dead man). McCain’s daughter, Cindy, is notably fighting back. Most of his attacks are outright lies that should come back and haunt him with any rational selection of voters. This sick mind behavior of DDT’s should disqualify him from any position of responsibility, especially from being President. If he were a corporate CEO, he’s have been long gone as a failure, liar, and a bigot. DDT says we can see the Mueller report, or, that is, the portions that the AG, Barr, thinks are suitable. That’s a big if sitting there in Barr’s hands. Good news, Clarence Thomas can actually talk (in public from the bench). I was beginning to think he had a splinter in his hind parts that was keeping him quiet. Way to go CT at least on bias in jury selection. DDT never learns that even the appearance of self-dealing as President is not a good idea. He’s now siphoning off money from his campaign into his personal pocket. I do not know if he is being illegal, but he sure is being sleazy. Careful out there guys with investments. It looks like the world economy is slowing, even China and the US. DDT’s contribution with the tariffs and running up the national debt is considerable. Hope he gets credit for the decline, the greatest and best decline ever. Not really. I do not want another depression, a recession will do nicely. As always, TBO.

19 March: Bigmouth is at it again, going after McCain even after the man has been dead for 6 months. There is no end to the idiot behavior DDT exhibits. The worst has come with his Brazilian clone, Bolsonaro, a fascist thug believing in military dictatorship and making crude statements about women, gay and indigenous people. To quote the NYT, To DDT, Brazil’s President is like looking in a mirror. Good to know we have a thug in the presidency. We shold see some of the thuggish behavior out in the open very shortly with the Cohen papers now made public except for 19 blacked out pages. These pages are the ones likely to spell peril for DDT. Prosecutors, both Federal and State, are busy working on the blacked out (to us) contents. Good luck DDT. What size orange suite did you say you wear? Extra large to cover that gut. Oh yes, here comes Joe Biden telling supporters that he plans to run for president. Hopefully, the Democratic field will settle down and become less radical. Be prepared Joe to just ignore DDT. Not good wrestling with a pig, you just get dirty and the pig loves it. It’s time to get rid of the stinky pig. TBO.

 

18 March: I read that a major prosecutor is leaving Mueller’s team. Does this mean that we are getting near to finally seeing the report? I hope so. It’s true that the investigations of Nixon with a simple robbery and coverup took even longer, but in the case of DDT, we have a president who is not doing the job he was elected to perform and is abusing the power of the office. Also, his presidency is encouraging dictators around the world to the point where it is becoming a contest between liberal democracy and strong-man rule. Just look at Europe where Orban in Hungary, inside the European union, is setting up an essentially one-party rule and suppressing all of the safeguards of a democracy. People are too complacent about the way we live, thinking that a dictatorship could not happen here. If you think that way, you are wrong, and can see it in the actions of DDT. R. Santorum is funny today, suggesting that DDT’s tweets should be sent to a therapist instead of the public. Probably a good suggestion. TBO

17 March: The master car manufacturer DDT motors is telling GM how to run its business. This after DDT has a record of sorts for failure and chicanery. Basically, DDT, keep your mouth (tweets) shut and try to be president. It won’t be easy, but perhaps you can fake it by hiring a script writer and then reading the script. One page one day should work. Perhaps we can create a new cable channel, Weasel News, where you can watch the instruction manual and find out what you should be doing. Surprise surprise, the Indonesian crash and the Ethiopian crash are similar. I’m so glad that the FAA finally realized that fact in an abundance of caution. Now Boing must step up and solve the problem and explain why it occurred in the first place and why it took so long to fix it. The Midwest is flooding, frightening, but there is no effect of climate change, especially human contributions to the problem. We need more coal says DDT. Mick Mulvaney got his foot stuck in his mouth today, blaming the democrats for the racist rants and actions of the New Zealand (Australian) white supremacist. Good news, Beto never took LSD (according to Beto) so we don’t have to worry about hallucinating on the campaign trail into thinking he has won. And then there is Texas, the Texas that is now trying to prevent Tesla servicing and repairing its own brand of cars. Free enterprise at work, Texas style (favoring existing car dealers). Nothing much happened today that is shockingly new, and that’s the good news. The bad news is that DDT can never keep his mouth shut. TBO.

16 March: Can’t let it go, can you DDT. Just because people liked and listened to John McCain more than they listened to you, you have to keep attacking the man. It does not work, you just keep looking stupider and mean. Yes, McCain gave the dossier to the FBI and yes he voted against repealing the ACA, both acts of courage and conscience. I do not expect you to understand, since you have demonstrated over and over that you have neither. Mr Bone Spurs (aka DDT) is a walking (ouch) monument to duplicity and opportunism. Nothing much happening new here in the US today. Everything is overshadowed by the tragedies in New Zealand and Ethiopia, as it should be. From my point of view, it appears possible that Boeing was arrogant in its handling of the development of the airplane and its new software. I’m willing to bet that there is a bad management decision (protect sales) lurking in the background that kept Boeing from informing pilots adequately about the MCAS system after the Indonesia crash. There is nothing to say about the New Zealand shooting except that the ideas of white supremacy are abominable particularly when coupled with violence. Did you know that DDT is now famous for running GM. Yes, he says that they must reopen the Ohio plant, even if they do not need the facility. After reopening it, they can sell it, according to DDT. Yet again, DDT shows consistency with his level of stupidity in politics and business along with self-serving actions. If nothing else, TBO

15 March: Somhow I missed Friday. Sorry. TBO

14 March: Another day another atrocity (not funny). This time it occurred in New Zealand with the massacre of at least 40 people killed in a hate crime. I tend to think of New Zealand as a peaceful place. It just goes to show you that the jerks lurk everywhere. Thanks to the superb negotiating skills of DDT, North Korea is threatening to suspend nuclear talks and presumably restart testing. Way to go DDT. Another win, but not for you. Good for the Senate, it rejected DDT’s invocation of emergency powers. Now we await the inevitable veto and a bunch of spineless Republicans afraid to override the veto. SAD. Of course, we have other scandals, such as the college admission scandal. Nothing really new here, just the rich trying to gain advantage over everyone else. The only difference here is that the bribery was to individuals instead of directly to the school, just like DDT’s dad making a payoff (large donation) in exchange for a favor. The large donation is fine, it is the quid pro quo that is and has been the problem. In DDT’s case, he could barely make it through either college he attended, since his grades were so poor. Bottom line here is that a lot of people were corrupt in the current academic scandal, and they deserve what they are getting – dismissal and prosecution. Good news is that the House voted unanimously to release the Mueller report (420 – 0). Now will the Senate follow? New York State is now going vigorously after DDT and his miscreant cronies. A appeals court judge has ruled in a molestation case against DDT that his being president does not make him immune from state prosecution. Worry DDT, worry. It is a witch hunt, and you are the witch. TBO.

 

13 March: His lucky day. Not DDT dummies, but PM (shhh Paul Manafort), sentenced and indicted, and indicted for a crime for which there is no pardon, if convicted. I think this is a forerunner of DDT’s own future plight. His only bet is to kick New York State out of the US. Perhaps he can invoke a National Emergency against all those New Yorkers. What a great idea. Oh wait, DDT is one of them. Explains a lot. Finally, the FAA acted on the side of caution and grounded the Boeing MAX. An expensive move (for Boeing) but even one plane load saved is more than worth all the money this will cost. On the other side of the pond, UK lawmakers rejected Theresa May’s latest attempt to fool everyone. Tick Tock….counting down to an economic explosion. Not much more happening today. It’s the quiet before the storm…rumble rumble…ZAP! That’s the sound of Mueller’s report, or at least I hope. OK Ok you know the deal. TBO

12 March: If you thought that the US is having trouble, it is nothing compared to the mayhem going on in England with Brexit. If the pols are smart, they will call for a 2nd referendum and let the public decide now that more facts are evident instead of fakery fed to them by the likes of B Johnson. DDT may be bad for the US, but the Brits are in for a bad shake up if they do not get their ship upright, and soon. More scandal, rich people are buying their way into colleges, shock. This is only different from the past in detail. The present case involves bribing particular people instead of the entire university. The “local” bribes are more affordable and it lets smaller fish participate. Our president was allegedly the beneficiary of the old style large payoff. Speaking of payoffs, DDT is getting furious at New York State’s prying into the family “business”, the alleged business of cheating and lying to banks and the state. He’s getting nervous since the NY AG has issued subpoenas for banks related to DDT’s money-making shenanigans. This is one time I agree with DDT, he should be nervous, NY state is trying to “Al Capone” him. If Chicago can be successful for taking down a gangster who looked untouchable, why would it not work for New York? Let’s get rid of the crooked dummy, if not now, then in 2020. TBO.

11 March:  Skipping a day today. Let the dirt accumulate a bit before sweeping it out from under the rug. The big thing is the Boeing airplane crash and all the lives lost. This tregedy makes DDT irrevalent. As always, a good thig to do, TBO

10 March: Interesting evening. Listening to 60 minutes, I just heard the chairman of the Fed talking about its operation and independence, especially from DDT. Apparently, the Fed chairmen cannot be fired until his 4-year term is up. The biggest news that came out of the interview was that the economy is stable, growing, and likely to continue growing at a modest pace consistent with population growth plus productivity growth. Very reasonable. This is the first Fed chair that speaks the same kind of understandable English that I do. Nice! This was followed by an episode on the ACLU and its success in opposing the repressive policies of DDT. They've been successful opposing DDT at every turn. What is amazing is the number of new members that joined the ACLU after the election of DDT. They are one of the few organizations that protects us from tyranny that comes from violating our constitution. We are awaiting a budget showdown with DDT’s new crazy budget that includes 8.6 billion for his wall and major cuts to the domestic budget. Great, DDT has to open his mouth and claim that 98% of Israelis would vote for him as Prime Minister. That kind of BS is what defines DDT, an arrogance that knows no bounds. That combined with ignorance is a deadly combination. As always, TBO.

9 March: For once DDT is mostly out of the news, except for the Washington Post, which saw fit to give DDT front page coverage of his CPAC act, an over 2 hour free ranging rant about how unfair everyone is to DDT and how great are the things that DDT has done for the poor and middle class (NOT). I must admit that I heard only excerpts of the performance, it was part misinformation and part clown, but very effective at rallying the ignorant, those who do not take the trouble to read the real news (Washington Post, New York Times, CNN or other reputable news sources with reporters instead of commentators). DDT is now asking for 8,5 billion for his wall from the general budget while at the same time proposing drastic cuts to the domestic budget and an increase in military spending. Fortunately, this budget will never see the light of day in the House, where all real budgets originate. Then there was the rant on the far left by Cortez about how everything that has ever happened in the US has been bad, from FDR to to DDT. Her plans read like a disaster show, more like an economic  revolution than evolution. The history of economic revolution has always produced misery for the general population. The reason is that no one is smart enough to figure out the unintended consequences of making sudden major changes, even when they sound good in principle. That is why the more moderate approach is always the way to go. You can see the effects of sudden change in DDT’s programs, the big tax cut leading to big deficits, the polarization of the population, and the rise of extreme racism. From the viewpoint of harm to the country, I would lump her in with DDT (except for the racism). There is no room in a democracy for extremism leading to economic revolution. Some pieces of her ideas are good ones that are shared by the democratic party such as campaign finance reform, reform in voter eligibility, and more reliance on renewable energy. The last thing we need is another intransigent group on the left mimicking the rigght wing Tea Party nuts. As always for DDT and his sycophants, TBO.

8 March: Headlines suggests that China’s negotiators are afraid that DDT may up and walk away from the table as he did with the N Koreans. That would be bad news for everyone, but entirely possible. DDT still thinks he is running his possibly crooked real estate empire instead of the country. What me care? Hooray, the House passed a bill to require tax return releases from anyone running for the Presidency. Will it pass the republican Senate? I doubt it McConnel probably will not even let it come to the floor for a vote. The House also passed a sweeping election reform law that would do away with most of the irregularities that occurred in 2016 and 2018. There was an immediate attack on the false grounds that this was a bill that would allow non-citizens to vote. What is really going on is that the legislation would make voting easier, which would help the poor vote. Letting more people vote is the thing that Republicans fear the most. I don’t blame them. Fear is good for them. TBO

7 March: WOW…Manafort has skated almost free. Sentenced to only just shy of 4 years instead of 20 years. It shows that crime might pay after all, if you are well connected. He stole millions, but is only doing four years…that’s well above the minimum wage. He’ll be out in no-time, unless the Virginia case slams him away for a while longer. The Cohen saga got more interesting with suitcases of documents delivered to the House committees. Even if not proof of misdeeds themselves, they should provide a clear trail to the proof. Going after family is another matter unless they overtly committed criminal acts. Don Jr may fall in that category, but Ivanka, probably not. So, be careful Dems, only go after real miscreants. Republicans seem to be against anti-hate legislation. Not surprising, since they are led by their noses by a pro-hate president. In the background here in the US, Brexit still looms with Theresa May trying to play games with the EU. 29 March is looming. A hard exit will be really bad for everyone. Vote again, dummy, and save your country. Meanwhile the witch hunt continues in the US with the witch right in front of our noses. All DDT needs is a broomstick. TBO

6 March: According to CNN, DDT is starting to work towards challenging the legitimacy of the upcoming 2020 election. I would not expect anything else from him. He did the same in 2016, but surprise surprise, he won. “All of that rhetoric fits into a very clear pattern: Convince the Trump base that it is not possible for him to lose a fair and legitimate election in 2020. Thus, if he loses, it must be, by definition, illegitimate.” All the more reason for the Democrats to keep him honest and to investigate the national swindle he has foisted on us. Apparently more than 40% of polled people think that we should get rid of DDT preferably by impeachment. This is up from previous estimates. In other news, DDT’s promise to keep American jobs here just received another blow with GM closing a plant in Ohio. Surprise, not really. It was making a product that did not sell, the Chevy Cruz. Now we just have to get rid of the other Cruz (T Cruz of Texas), Beto almost did it for us. Next time. The workers put in their final work shift to day. SAD. Will DDT back down on the national emergency, or will he veto the bill that nullifies the emergency. Who knows? Best thing is to TBO

5 March: Oh Goodie. DDT has done another successful bout of negotiating. The result is clear for all to see. North Korea is reassembling its rocket test site only days after DDT gave his best blessing. How long will it be until the next blessed rocket launch? We’ll see. Others are heaping praise on DDT for walking out. Meanwhile New York State is ploughing doggedly ahead with its investigation of DDT’s financial empire and its misdeeds. It has now subpoenaed the insurance records for his poperties in an effort to verify his overvaluing them for the purpose of obtaining bank loans (in short, fraud). As in a recent Post cartoon, DDT may soon be looking at 4 new walls, keeping him in and most other people out. One thing that may inspire additional resources at our southern border is the spike in families applying for asylum coming mostly through places that already have a wall. We need people and resources to handle the load. The good news is that Bloomberg and Clinton made formal announcements that they are NOT running for President. Bloomberg I like very much, but he is not stupid enough to be one of 12 candidates. Now if only Biden would do something, YES or NO Joe. After initially saying that he, DDT, cooperates with everyone, the White House is circling its wagons and now refusing to cooperate. What a surprise, what a hypocrite. Writing about this daily is like watching a movie in slow motion. Things happen, and it retrospect, it may look like they happened quickly, but living it day by day is agonizing. TBO

4 March: There’s panic in DDT’s heart. He knows the end is nearing and that he and his family are getting ever more entangled in a lose-lose proposition. You can tell he’s frightened because he’s futilely attempting to fight back in a manor that makes him appear unhinged, more unhinged than before. For one thing, he’s running out of people to blame that he can get rid of my presidential order. He’s reduced to mocking the people he’s already fired, people who no longer care. The House panel is widening the investigation into abuse of power and obstruction of justice, and even including his family (at least his 2 sons), plus there in an investigation into DDT’s shady financial dealings both in Congress and New York. So far 81 names are targeted, with more to come, I’m sure. Sometimes a witch hunt actually finds a witch. Good luck, DAHT, you are the witch. With the rejection of his emergency declaration, even some republicans are getting nervous about his undermining of our system of government, They should. DDT has taken over the Republican party to use for his own purposes. Republicans should worry a lot, DDT did not use force, he used cowardly acquiescence. Roger, the dodger, Stone is at it again, appearing to violate court orders on not commenting publicly about his ongoing case. Careful Roger S, you could be wearing orange instead of grey. As for DDT and his cronies, TBO.

 

 

3 March: I can’t believe it. Rand Paul is going to vote against the emergency declaration and make DDT veto the opposition bill passed by both the House and Senate. Of course, RP hasn’t done it yet, so as usual, wait and see. The Republicans are falling lockstep into the DDT BS ring, now claiming that the hush payments concealing his affairs during the campaign and then lying about it are not impeachable offenses. By themselves, probably not, but with the accumulating evidence of lie after lie on the meetings in Trump tower, on the Russian-WikiLeaks dump of emails, on the Kushner security clearance, on the hotel building attempt in Moscow during the campaign and the early part of DDT’s presidency, and on a host of other issues collectively warrant impeachment. The House committee investigations along with the tax investigations should do him in. Let’s hope so. DDT has done more harm to this country than any other president with his disdain for allies, ruining negotiations with the Chinese, and generally causing distrust for the government of the US. It will take years to repair. The Warmbier affair takes the cake. DDT coming out and saying he believes Kim in that Kim knew nothing about the torture and death of Warmbier defies credulity. Even his advisor (John Bolton) and a Republican senator (McCarthy) cannot accept DDT’s varnishing of the truth. Possible good news. There may be a US China trade deal after all. Hopefully, it will be one that we can live with that alters China’s predatory behavior. Adam Schiff, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee now thinks that there is direct evidence of DDT-Russian collusion. Let the investigations proceed and hope the truth will come out either way. Of course DDT couldn’t resist going after Scifff in his over 2 hour speech calling him “little Shifty Schiff”. Schiff is getting DDT plenty worried, since he is going after his bank accounts, his accountants, and financial officers of the Trump organization. Along with allegations of bank and tax fraud. Get that lying crook out of there. TBO

2 March: DDT was in fine form at CPAC, the gathering of ultra conservative nut cases. Being a bit on the conservative side is as natural and thought provoking as being a little bit on the liberal side. It’s the extremes that are head shaking. But today DDT gave an over 2 hour rant on why he is crazy, but alluring to the nut jobs on the right. He was unabashedly throwing around conspiracy theories as to why people were specifically out to get him when he had done nothing to deserve such treatment. If he weren’t crazy (demented), he would fully realize that he has been a devious crooked person his entire adult life. The biggest demented part of his rant was an attack on Mueller as a Democratic plot of revenge instead of its real goal of uncovering the truth or falsity of Russian collusion. I certainly did not listen to the 2-hour rant, but only heard snippets on line. More will come out tomorrow. The 2020 election will be interesting indeed. The shape is forming already with Republicans trying to brand democrats as socialists in the Soviet communist sense that will ruin America, while it is completely obvious that the Republican engendered plutocracy is already ruining America and its form of government. The CPAC speech was stand-up comedy at its best with lies and exaggerations galore. One of the best was how China was enriching the US treasury by paying billions in tariffs. Of course that is not the case. There are billions in tariffs alright, but it is the US taxpayer that is paying them, not China. There is no question that DDT is an expert rabble rouser. We need to get rid of him by impeachment or conviction. TBO

1 March 2019: Finally, the House investigating committees are asking the IRS for DDT’s tax returns. Wouldn’t it be nifty if the caught the dummy on an Al Capone gambit? Jail for tax fraud, sounds fair to me. Free orange clothing for life and all you can buy up to your monthly limit at the concession store. No more greasy burgers and fries, SAD. Yeah, DDT returns from his super unsuccessful week in Hanoi to face the fallout from Cohen’s testimony. If nothing else, Cohen has provided a map into DDT’s shady ways that are likely to be exploited by the House committees and the New York State prosecutor’s office. Meanwhile, the Democrats are doing their darndest to re-elect DDT for another 4 years in 2020. They’ve got a crowded field of primary candidates most of whom are being pushed to the left (free everything for everyone, I am exaggerating, but not by much) making them a target for people who still relish the “Good Old America”. Some reform is needed, but not the wholesale left angle turn. Let’s make Medicare an option with cost to those who can afford to pay, subsidies for solar panels that are means tested, sure, reduced college expenses for those that need the help, Go for it! Just as yesterday, we are waiting for the shoes to drop. Come on Mueller, drop some shoes. Personally, I am getting tired of writing about the crooked orange idiot with nothing substantive happening except the rules imperiling women, adding right-wing judges, worsening our environment, denying the obvious climate changes occurring all over the world, and beating down our system of checks and balances that makes the US democracy work. Yes, yes, TBO

 

28 February: Another day another botch. Apparently, DDT screwed up in the Hanoi negotiations. He didn’t get his way, misunderstood, pouted, and left. As it was, he was right to walk away at that stage of the negotiation, but he should have persisted longer. Oh well, hopefully there’s a next time. Nice thing with DDT on travel is that he is bascially out of hte news. Meanwhile China is perfectly happy that the talks failed, since it diminishes the US role in Asia, China’s putative back yard. Of course, one of the first things that DDT did almost 2 years ago was to give up the Asia trade treaty that would have given the US a stable position in Asia. We are in the position of waiting for the “other” shoe to drop with respect to Cohen’s testimony, the NY State prosecutor’s cases, and the Mueller report. Everything is hanging until some of this surfaces. Cohen brought up stuff that are crimes (felonies) on the part of DDT, but until there is further proof, we just have to wait. As always, TBO.

27 February: DDT is having a great time in Vietnam with little Kim. The question is whether DDT will get anything of value related to stability in the Asian world. Right now all I hear are promises about economic aid to N Korea in return for a showcase of standing down while hidden efforts continue. If it is real, there will be international inspectors to see what is really happening. In the background is the singing of Michael Cohen about the perfidy of his former boss. He says, “a racist, a con man, and a cheat (crook)” inflating assets when applying to a bank for a loan (Bank fraud) and deflating them for tax purposes (tax fraud). And of course, what we all suspected that DDT knew of the WikiLeaks release of stolen emails before the release and basically said, bring it on. There’s lots more, but this is not a newspaper, so you will just have to do with a few highlights. Fraud and campaign illegalities should be enough. Now the house has approved universal background checks for buying guns. I bet this won’t go far in the Republican Senate. As always, the devil is in the details of the criminal and election interference. We’ll have to wait for Mueller to flesh this out. Nothing today would make me change my mantra, TBO.

 

26 February: Today Michael Cohen sang in private, tomorrow some of the lyrics will be made public. Of course, there are already leaks about some of the criminal activities perpetrated by his boss, the infamous DDT. The biggest thing to leak is information about the hacked emails and the fact (according to MC) that DDT knew all about it during the campaign. Not good for DDT. Plus there are other criminal activities which will come out tomorrow for which MC has a paper trail. OK, we’ll see. In the meantime, bated breath. Brexit looks like t may be on temporary hold. Theresa May is finally seeing that the damage ot England might be greater than the hit to her personal ego. India and Pakistan are foolishly at it again over Kashmir, with Pakistan clearly starting the fracas with a bombing of Indian troops. Let’s hope it play out as it has in the past with limited warfare and not too much real damage. Of course DDT cannot keep his mouth shut, attacking MC and his trade negotiator in China. The damn fool has not a clue about what he is doing other than claiming a place in the public spotlight. It is truly sad to watch a fool playing president. The trouble is this game is real and has consequences for the rest of us are beyond its entertainment value. The House quashed the emergency declaration and the Senate may do the same. DDT is pleading with his Republican sycophants in the Senate to vote it down. One can only hope that there are at least 3 or 4 Senators to understand the meaning of separation of powers. Truly, it is time to TBO.

 

25 February: DDT is at it again. Playing at negotiator with Kim (N Korea). Let’s see how many bombs he can negotiate away this time. Last time all he got was reduced testing, but no cessation in building rockets and bombs. This time, he will probably give away the store. Meanwhile back at home, the House is getting ready to block his phony state of emergency for his pet border wall, a monument to his own ego, King Tut Tut’s wall. In the background, more people are running for the Democratic nomination for President. Perhaps, everyone should run, a crowd of thousands in a baseball stadium for the debates. This is getting silly, especially as Biden is Bidening his time for his own announcement. Ah good old Bernie, “Damn right I will raise taxes on the rich”. Nothing wrong there unless he goes overboard and goes back to the 90% confiscatory tax structure. This is the problem with the extreme left, no sense of proportion, just like the extreme right. Damage the country on principle. With DDT out of the country and with Mueller’s report looming, it’s time to TBO.

 

24 February: The opera has finally come to Washington, DC, and Michael Cohen is going to sing in front of a committee of very unfriendly critics. I can’t wait to read the reviews. It certainly will not be Madame Butterfly up there. I'm sure that DDT will watch the reviews on the Fox news echo chamber. DDT’s representatives are nearing a final trade deal with China. One hopes that they come back with their pants on. Of course, any deal is only as good as the partners agreement to observe the terms. So far China has ignored the intent of agreements while pursuing its predatory ways. Why we think that this time is different escapes me. There is no reason why a repressive predatoty dictatorship bent on economic domination should follow rules that might limit its behavior. so, I hope the agreement has some sharp teeth. The usual is going on without resolution so far. Venezuela aid from the international community is blocked and torched with some people killed, Mueller is just hanging in there in a form of time bomb tick tock. Pieces keep leaking out on purpose, such as the bold criminal activity memo on Paul Manafort, which only whets our appetite for the rest of the tasty meal. Strike one for women’s equality. A judge has ruled that the all-male military draft in not constitutional. The is quite a different thing from women volunteering for the military. Those women are enthusiastic about serving. These will be just like the men drafted, reluctant and displaced from home and their lives. England is splitting into a new centrist party according to an interview I just heard on the news in response to the Brexit mess. So far it is just a small splinter group of 10 or 11 in parliament because the regular parties seem frozen into doctrinaire positions. One coul dmake a slightly x-rated joke here. Meanwhile Theresa May’s best tactic is to delay delay until Brexit happens by default with all the ensuing economic and social chaos. She’s not evil in the way that suits DDT, but just incompetent. Incompetent to put her country ahead of party. As for our government, or at least for the Republicans, TBO.

 

23 February: Ah yes, Paul M (Manafort) is going down the tubes. As with others, PM will soon be in orange that is a bit brighter than his erstwhile boss. Who knows, sometime in the future they may both be wearing matching outfits. But, PM will never match DDT’s hairdo. Nicely for us, New York State is preparing charges just in case DDT decides to pardon PM. Of course, he will be joined in short order by RS (R Stone), an alleged equally slimy character who is fond of good clothes. Perhaps they and RC (R Cohen) can all work in the same library and talk abut their memories of good food and clothes. DDT is alleged to be looking forward to reading the Mueller indictment (I mean report) about his deeds of daring do that violate the laws that “are so limiting, SAD”. I wonder if the library is big enough to hold 5, RC, PM, RS, DDT, and his ever so prescient gut. Meanwhile, the Green New Deal is inching forward toward the nirvana of greatly reduced CO2 emissions. The crazy parts of the plan will be eliminated by the practicality of achieving desired goals without destroying modern life. It won’t be by 2030, but perhaps a good bit by 2040. It’s the right direction and the right thing to do. Hopefully the rest of the world will follow suit, so that we only have a small disaster (Florida sinking under the ocean - how many votes does an archipelago get?). Since DDT denies that there is any problem, it won’t be too long till Mar A Largo is under water – Golf with a snorkel, anyone? If you are really interested in stopping mass migration, believe in global warming and do something about it (perhaps writing your congress person about it, especially those colored Republican. As always, TBO and elect people that care. I almost forgot, BREXIT is coming and the Brits are spinning left and right. I sure hope that the Brits brew their own beer to drown their sorrows, because a lot of other stuff is going to get scarce and expensive. Vote Again, Dummies.

22 February: Congratulations Sarah Sanders, you did it again and showed that you can confabulate with the best of them. You are not quite in the league of your boss, the overweening DAHT, but your getting there. It’s good to see your development as practice improves your ability to pretend that you haven’t a clue as to what is going on. Watching you on TV is a show in professional mendacity. Keep it up, old SS, you will get there. Sad, but apparently true, that Mueller will not be delivering his report next week according to the Justice Department. The sad part is I must keep writing about the potential shoe drop while Washington continues to burn. All you need is a fiddle, DDT, that you could pretend to play as you pretend to be an emperor instead of a president. Nancy is going to give you an opportunity to make an horse’s (you know what) out of you with a priviledged bill going through the house terminating your fake national emergency. The beauty of the bill is that it forces a Senate vote (the dour Mitch cannot stop a priviledged bill) laying out for all to see who is in favor of an imperial presidency. US-China trade talks continue with the possibility of a favorable outcome. I’ll have to wait and see what is in the details. With the master negotiator in charge, one never know whether the results are useful or we’ll get taken to the cleaners. I think the cleaners are operating in more than one place as DDT tries to negotiate one on one with North Korea’s much smarter cookie. DDT has already given away the store by saying that it’s OK if de-nuclearization takes place eventually. DDT asked about election fraud in North Carolina opined that it is OK when Republicans commit the fraud, while pointing to non-existent fraud in California and Texas to deflect the conversation. He’s better than Sarah S when he lies because he smiles that smarmy smile while doing it. He knows you know, but can’t do anything about it. Then there is Michael Cohen today apparently testifying that the DDT organization had shady financial dealings and filled false insurance claims. DDT says “fake crime” "I am not a crook". No, he did not actually say the Richard Nixon riff. TBO

 

21 February: I am telling you truly, I did not know anything about the fraud committed in my name, said the Republican candidate, Mark Harris from North Carolina. That is, until his son testified that indeed he knew about the problems in detail and decided to ignore the fraud. Well, let’s have a new election and see how it goes. Unfortunately for Harris, he must go through a new primary as well as a new general election. By the time this is done, it will be at least half way through the 2-year term. The word Republican more and more seems to be a synonym for sleaze. Poor Roger Stone. He just can’t keep his trap shut, or rather his Instagram posts quiet. The judge was very angry, and she should be. She promised jail if he cannot keep quiet. Roger promised to put his cross hairs away. Good deal. Perhaps old Roger needs a jail trial run before his trial, then he will be well practiced in the ways of living in orange. Tick Tock on Mueller, when will the ticking stop. Hopefully, Barr will let us poor civilians see the report. Maduro is still playing with people’s lives, shutting Brazil’s border to prevent aid from getting into the country where it is desperately needed. Old DDT resembles this guy and other dictators, only we have a more robust system, for now. I just read that India plans to stop sharing water with Pakistan. That should heat things up a bit over there. I could see war developing over water blockage. Of course, India is mad right now over the Pakistani aided attack. A little war should clam things down (NOT). Notice, not too much about DDT tonight. If the newspapers and TV would just mostly shut him down except for important stuff, we’d all be better off. As ever, TBO.

 

20 February: A day off from thinking about the wrong end of a horse is very therapeutic. My blood pressure dropped back into the normal range and I was able to enjoy shoveling snow. Moreover, I was able to contemplate Bernie redux and the ever-procrastinating Joe B. Joe B. gave a ringing excoriating speech just the other day that sounded as if he were running for President but stopping just short of announcing a bid. It’s sad a bit. Even Joe B now admits that he regrets his decision in 2016, but doesn’t seem to realize that he will regret it even more if he skips 2020. The Bernie phenomenon has sort of run its course. His radical ideas have now been incorporated into a sort of mainstream on the liberal side. Of course, the details are where the devil lives. Bernie is too extreme, but a more moderate version of his ideas would work quite well. For example, making Medicare an option instead of forcing everyone onto Medicare would be more acceptable. Significantly reduced tuition at state univeristies would increase opportunities for everyone. But, it’s not yet the chest thumping Bernie’s time in the barrel. There is good news on the DDT front, or at least a good rumor. Seems the Mueller’s report will be released to the Justice Department in the next week or so. It will be interesting to see what the newly minted Attorney General Barr will do with the report, release it or bury it. DDT’s fake emergency is now starting into the courts. It’s a pity that Congress is not willing to express its will in this case. Time to throw out the spineless republicans and their feckless leader. As always TBO

 

19 February: I am skipping a day, DDT fatigue. I’m sure I’ll be suitably mad tomorrow to pick it up again. That doen't mean I am giving the idiot a pass. As far as DDT goes, TBO

 

18 February: The Semi-Nation of California, joined by other border states, is suing the DDT administration over the fake Emergency’s use of funds allocated by Congress for other purposes. Good for them. All they must do is to delay the process until there is a new President. The way things are going, 2020 should be sufficient. I wonder what DDT has up his gut by warning the Venezuelan military that they will lose everything if they do not abandon Maduro. Much as I want to see Mad Maduro gone and the people of Venezuela set free to live normal lives, I do not want to see US military action in the form of an invasion. Let’s hold our collective breaths and hope that some wise action occurs. With DDT at the helm one can only hope for the bad and hope to avoid the worst. Todays protest had a number of fun posters, mine said “EMERGENCY --- DUMP TRUMP”, simple but succinct. Who says I am biased against DDT? I'm not biased, it goes way geyond bias. A CNBC headline shouts, “It looks like a US-China trade deal is near – and Beijing will get everything it wanted”. Thank the gods that we have a master negotiator leading the US. This is quite different than DDT’s election boasts that only he could put an end to the great China rip-off. Probably what is going on is that DDT does not want to be distracted as he sets up his campaign for 2020. The China trade deal appears to be complete and of such a nature that they will run huge trade surpluses for the foreseeable future while still continuing to rip off trade secrets freely. Well done DDT. To bad you do not read your reports and do something that your advisors recommend. Bottom line, TBO.

 

17 February: I just watched 60 minutes interview with McCabe (former acting director of the FBI who was fired days before he was eligible for retirement because he opened an investigation into the possible DDT collusion with the Russians). It was interesting to listen to the interview conducted in such an open manner. Answers to difficult questions were given in straightforward sentences without evasion. The facts as related by McCabe seemed sufficient for DDT to be accused of obstruction of justice, impeachable grounds. Also, independently, Atlantic magazine explored in detail why impeachment of DDT would be a plus for the country and democracy. I highly recommend catching up on both the 60 minutes interview and the Atlantic article. This is a case where the House of Representatives should carefully do its investigations and, if appropriate, start impeachment proceedings. One could only hope that Senate Republicans would put the nation and democracy first ahead of their party and support the impeachment. DDT needs to be legally removed. Today, the Senate Democrats introduced a bill to prevent DDT from building the war using funds allocated for natural disasters. For DDT to even think of using this kind of money is extremely callous and irresponsible. Building a wall on the backs of the suffering of US citizens is outrageous, but why would DDT care. Meanwhile the defense department is working to re-allocate funds from military projects. It’s not good, but better than using natural disaster funds. Some states, and especially California, are suing DDT over the fake border emergency. Lindsey Graham has reacted to the 60 minutes interview with McCabe by opening an investigation into the FBI and Justice Department’s discussion about using the 25th amendment. More idiocy. DDT has given Europeans and ultimatum about taking back ISIS fighters that were captured by the US. This is a decision that should be taken only by the European countries involved, not forced by the US. What is the threat? DDT says take them back or the US will simply release them to infiltrate back into their societies where they can cause real harm. If DDT keeps this up, the damage he will do to us and our international friends will be overwhelming. Solution, TBO.

 

16 February: Ok no furlough…that’s good, perhaps the only large good to come out of this. Now we have the “Emergency” to deal with. DDT’s favorite toadies, fearless Lindsey Graham and feckless McConnell are throwing their support to old fat DDT. Yes, he’s officially obese according to his doctors. Of course, that’s his strong point, more gut to help him make decisions. USA Today’s quote from Ann Coulter (Fox News) “The only national emergency is that our President is an idiot”. WOW I hope DDT is watching the FOX. This after continually criticizing DDT for caving to the Democrats, calling him “the biggest wimp ever to serve as President”. Can’t win DDT. Pretty soon you’ll really be alone in that White House. DDT says, “I don’t know her” even though he used to listen constantly to FOX and Ann singing his praises. How the worm turns. Politically, it’s been a quiet day this Saturday, but some things never change. We have an idiot for President (surprised?) and only one solution. TBO.

 

15 February: Ding Ding Ding. Furlough threat ended.Trump is a National Emergency (New Yorker) and now has declared a fake one. Congress needs to rebalance the situation by overriding his emergency and then getting rid of the dope. Now the lawsuits are starting to fly. The emergency should be tied up for a considerable time. Watch DDT try to accelerate the process of getting the lawsuits to his lackies on the Supreme court. Hopefully, this won’t happen. Even his Fox news shill, Ann Coulter, thinks his national emergency is a dumb move. O course wht she wants is an all out congressional approval for the wall. Dream on Ann, you and your robots are not completely in charge any more. As usual, come 2020 TBO unless congress gets some backbone and does it first.

 

14 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 20 of 21. Tomorrow is the boom or bust day for the nation. Today, however, is Valentine’s Day. Lots of love to go around for those near and dear, but not for those who are not so near, and one might say “dear me” (if I were Victorian) and much stronger language in the present epoch. Enough said. DDT gets no love from me on this day or any other day. It appears DDT is about to invoke emergency powers, EP, just to get his way on a false issue. The problem is that using the EP arbitrarily this way is a step towards destroying separation of powers that is inherent in our constitution. DDT will be taking the power of allocating funds out of the hands of congress and awarding to himself and the presidency. This is extremely dangerous. Hopefully the Republicans will develop a spine, and appreciation of our form of government and revoke those powers with 60 vote majorities. Already, we have the opportunistic McConnel offering to support the president. I never expected better from him, but always hoped he would not be one of the architects of the destruction of our democracy. The chances are that getting funds allocated using EP will get tied up in the courts and then revoked by the next president after 2020 (one hopes against hope). The bill passes by the Senate and probably by the House includes some nice goodies that are good for the country. Among them is a 1.9% raise for civil servants, which is well deserved after the beating they took in January and to offset the rising cost of living, then there is the passing of a budget funding the government until September (8 months of peace) and there is a little extra funding for some of the agencies, NASA among them. All this good stuff is overshadowed by the unprincipled threatened use of Emergency Powers for a political purpose. As always, TBO

 

13 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 19 of 21. Wow…The house delivered a kick in DDT’s face and voted to end support for the Saudi war in Yemen. Pretty soon the big baboon will have to use his first veto. Probably, the measure will not pass the Senate, so DDT is safe cozying up to the crown prince as long as he does not visit one of their embassys. The good news is that El Chapo appears to be heading to the maximum security (Super Max) prison in the Rocky Mountains where escape should be impossible. There’s lots to do there before you die, such as counting your toes and the marks on the walls. Now they just must get him there without him escaping or killing himself. DDT is not happy with the Senate bill that avoids a furlough, builds about 50 miles of barrier plus lots of money where it is really needed, namely beefing up the number of agents and judges. DDT announced that “he’s looking for landmines” in the bill. We won’t know until the last minute what his gut tells him to do. A dinner with extra fries could kill the bill, burp! Oh goodie, Ted Cruz wants the convicted drug lord El Chapo to pay for DDT’s border wall. That’s one way to dissipate his ill-gotten wealth, but even better, if the US can get the money, would be to use it to better the situation in Central America and stem the tide of immigrants fleeing to the US. DDT is expressing anger at the turmoil in Venezuela, “I don’t like seeing it. I’m not happy about it”. That’s pretty good for DDT. Two simple grammatically correct sentences in a row that tell us how the inner DDT really feels. Now do something. The latest estimate is that climate change will make New York City have the climate of Arkansas. That’s not so good, but what about Arkansas, will it have the climate of Saudi Arabia? Meanwhile DDT fiddles (watches TV and plays golf) while the planet starts to burn. We are like a frog in a slowly heated pot with no one at the switch to save us. TBO

12 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 18 of 21 Pretty much took the day off from following DDT and his manipulating minions. As of the 12th, the possibility of a furlough looms, but with the possibility of relief from the Senate committee. Venezuela is slowly cooking toward an explosion, but Maduro and his henchmen hang on while the people starve. The Green proposal almost blew itself out of the water with a premature release of a press review that was not the final copy. Does Cortez lack experience, you bet. Also, it is poorly thought out, so that even though I and others agree with its principle idea, it should have been vetted by scientists and engineers to avoid being pilloried for avoidable mistakes (e.g., carbon free by 2030). The direction is right, but the implementation stinks. Meanwhile the prosecutors are going after DDT and the House committees are gearing up. As usual, TBO

 

11 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 17 of 21. YAY Law makers agree in principle on terms to avoid a shutdown. Is that progress, I ask you, or is that progress? If they truly have such an agreement, they still have to deal with the great turkey, DDT. No telling what he will do. And, the committee reaching the deal refused to tell anyone what are the details of the deal. That give me the warm fuzzies indeed. A secret deal that gets sent to DDT. Hmmm…We need a leak, soon. C’mon guys, fess up. Lyin DDT held a rally in El Paso with Beto O-Rourke walking past holding his nose along with other protesters. The rally was filled with lies spilling out into the street, but the local sanitation department heroically flushed the stuff. It’s interesting, the current issue of Atlantic magazine has the word IMPEACH written in large red letters on the cover and an article inside explaining why this is a really good idea with the current totally unqualified person that happens to be president (Yeah it’s DDT, SAD). Sad, especially with DDT vocally expressing racist tropes about Native Americans. You hear the protests about others who expressed racist ideas, why the sound of crickets for DDT? It’s time for Republicans to get a spine and join with their colleagues to get rid of Trump before the damage gets too great to easily repair. As always, the call is TBO

 

10 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 16 of 21 Here we come again. Another furlough is in the works. Of course we are not there YET, and under the steady hand of DDT on the tiller of government we can expect nothing but the most measured of carefully worked out results. As usual, DDT is blaming people who disagree with him as blocking the road to what he perceives as progress. He’s accusing the Democrats of poisoning the budget process. He’s probably right. The DDT requirements for a budget are ridiculous, since they include 5.7 billion for a wall (a DDT burial pyramid for gawking tourists for all time). He joked about the native Americans Trail of Tears where 4000 died under Andrew Jackson while coitizing Elizabeth Warren for the admittedly stupid claim of Indian heritage. Her apology should have sufficed, but not to the ignorant DDT. His supporters denied he meant anything by the remarks, since he is known not to read and presumable knows nothing about history. The brilliance of an empty mind cannot be ignored or deprecated, especially one low down and hidden in his gut. The last push against organized ISIS is occurring now in Syria. The contested area may be small, but the fighting is fierce. After this there will be a guerilla style war with a lot of deaths. DDT’s withdrawal will almost certainly exacerbate the situation. DDT’s badgering of S Korea has resulted in an offer to pay for US troops. Now they are mercenaries. How interesting. According to some news reports DDT has been ignoring the relations between S Korea and Japan with the result that it is steadily worsening. That’s just what we need in an era of tensions with China. DDT has a knack of causing trouble with our friends and allies, both in the east and in Europe. What a jerk. TBO

 

9 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 15 of 21 Good news. The "fun-time" is getting close. What will dumbo do. Furlough redux?  People are receiving 8.4% lower tax refunds than expected. There is nothing like a tax reduction law to raise expectations only to find that you are paying more. The question is are the lower refunds due to an IRS with holding screwup or to higher taxes. According to independent analysis the only group reliably benefiting from the “tax-cut” are the really rich. Others ae finding that the new law is costing them big-time. Good luck guys. DDT is at it already with his idiot mocking. In this case Elizabeth Warren for her faux pas about her Indian background. Foolish move on her part, but ugly on his part. Nothing new there. Virginia is reeling from the disasters caused by the 3 of the highest politicians in the Commonwealth of V. It’s still unfolding. Who is going to resign and who may be in deeper legal peril? Iran is threatening (again) to sink a US aircraft carrier. That would be most unfortunate for everyone, especially the sailors, and then later…better not to think about it. Meanwhile DDT fiddles about the middle east with all kind of withdrawal plans. He is useless. TBO

 

8 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 14 of 21 The House just gave Whittaker a going over for his short tenure as acting AG. Nothing much of substance came out of the grilling other that some frayed tempers. The only thing that mattered was his statement that he had not interfered with Mueller and not discussed the Mueller probe with the Whitehouse. Bottom line, a big nothing. Venezuela is a ticking time bomb with Maduro blocking aid a and desperately trying to keep his military in line. It’s just a matter of time (short time) before the whole thing implodes. Meanwhile the US has cut off oil-based funding causing a panic inside of Maduro’s government. Hopefully, there will be no civil war. Meanwhile the Brexit comedy is ticking along with the Brits getting nowhere in renegotiating the deal with the EU. The economic impact in Britain and here could be major. Watch out stock market. A team of doctors has ruled DDT in excellent health, but the team lacked a key discipline, a psychiatrist. That information along with his income tax returns would be really useful. I suspect we will get the latter and the former is pretty obvious. Virginia is about to blow up with so many political people who grew up in the last century being shown to have racist or abusive backgrounds. Getting that sorted could change the political landscape, and might even result in a Republican replacement for governor. In any case, it is a distraction from DDT and his nonsense. TBO

 

7 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 13 of 21. How exciting, the end is nigh.  I’m tired to night, so this will be brief. The biggest news contains the start of serious investigations into DDT’s financial shenanigans, both personal and since he became President. This will include his tax returns. DDT is livid, he really really angry, it so incredible and political, so sad. He’s plotting to “get” those Dems who dare to question the royal pain in the posterior. It will be an interesting Spring-Summer season when many tawdry facts crawl out from under the rocks. Maduro is still blocking humanitarian aid from Columbia. Let them eat dirt, he says, then they can get sick and die from lack of medical care. Good plan M buddy. All sort of other things are happening, but it will have to wait for another night, As usual, TBO.

 

6 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 12 of 21. Furlough or Emergency looms. I’m glad the bloviating turkey’s speech is over. A speech delivered over 90 minutes in sleep inducing monotones punctuated by sly self-satisfied smirks when he thought he had hit a telling mark. The result was a big empty mess with just a few proposals that were real. I applaud the HIV proposal, if it gets funded without affecting other projects. It needs new money. With falling tax revenues, we’ll just borrow a bit more. The same goes for rebuilding infrastructure (roads and bridges). Interestingly enough, DDT threatened the congress with gridlock if they continue the ridiculous (DDT’s words) investigations. The democrats obviously were not cowed with the house starting up real investigations into the 2016 election and possible cooperation with the Russians, and an investigation into DDT’s finances. If they do their job fairly, the results should be interesting and perhaps will exonerate DDT. It is notable that DDT ignored climate change and gun violence, except from those marauding illegal immigrants. Ocasio-Cortez got it right, “Why should I be ‘spirited and warm’ for this embarrassment of a State of the Union?”. “Tonight, was an unsettling night for our country. The president failed to offer any plan, any vision at all, for our future. We’re flying without a pilot.” One of the things DDT got right was the large number of women in congress without mentioning that they were mostly democrats. Meanwhile another idiot, Maduro, is running true to coarse with violence and blocking humanitarian aid. For both Maduro and DDT, TBO

 

5 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 11 of 21 It’s just a few minutes before the great Donald is about to talk. He’s giving the state of the Onion address. I suspect the more you peel back the layers of his speech, the more it will make me cry. The State of the Onion is not very good, rotton at its core. Of course, I may be surprised and hope springs eternal. I expect to be disabused of hope during the next hour. Already I’ve heard he is bringing a little boy who happens to have the surname TRUMP and has been harassed about it at school. We’ll see. i guess they thought better of this one, so it did not happen. Instead we got an appealing brave little girl with brain cancer and some promises for research. This is his second time appearing before the nation. Surprise me DDT. Five minutes in and platitudes are flying. DDT says "Please choose Greatness" (Why not). Uh oh, we’ve got the greatest economy ever, and I mean ever, with wages rising soooo fast, the fastest ever. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and debt, debt, debt. Guess what I (DDT) did, I almost eliminated Obama care, by repealing the requirement that everyone have good health insurance. Health and safety regulations have been cut – the best cuts and most ever. We have the world’s greatest military and we are winning every day in every way, hooray. I have to admit; the stock market is up. He just invoked ridiculous partisan investigations – I wonder what he is talking about, himself? If you want political peace, he says, stop investigating (me), and then greatness will flow along with the best standards of living ever. Now we are into introducing wonderful people – please, a round of applause. I tell you fellow citizens, we have a crisis, a major crisis right here in River City. Here comes the wall to stop all crime, drugs and human trafficking. More caravans are coming, so I (DDT) have sent the army to the border to protect us. Almost none of these caravan people will actually come across the desert where the wall goes, but who is looking. The important thing is to build a monument to DDT that future tourists will come south to marvel in wonder, just like the pyramids of Egypt. Defend our dangerous southern border. Of course, the people who live there haven’t noticed it. It’s the Democrats fault. Illegal immigration is destroying all our institutions, education social welfare, our medical services. Thousands of young girls are being forced to cross the desert into slavery. Crime is rampant from illegal aliens, way more than by citizens. Back to the DDT monument, the wall, to be a sophisticated steel see-through barrier across the barren regions away from our border cities. Few agree with him, but what the hell, it’s only a few billion for the wall and the gold plated DDT plaques. DDT says the treasury is receiving billions and billions of dollars because of his great tariffs. Of course, the money is coming from us like a tax, not China. Rebuilding crumbling infrastructure, now finally that is real. Lower the cost of healthcare, great, but for whom? You may not know it, but drug prices have dropped under DDT amazing rule. This is real news that no one ever knew before tonight. Whoops, DDY just threw in school choice, but no details, so no bother. Paid family leave, OK. Let’s see the legislation and budget. He just distorted the abortion issue about late term abortion. The Virginia legislation did no such thing, but it has become a right wing meme. He’s claiming that if not for him we would be in a major war with N Korea. That’s pure BS, but at least we are not at war even though N Korea is hiding and stockpiling nuclear weapons. He says we are being pushed to adopt enslaving socialism – those bad liberal democrats. He’s taking credit for destroying ISIS. OK. Let’s see if it holds. Now we are into holocaust survivors. Hard not to applaud. For the most part we are seeing a Potemkin president tonight, but it looks a lot better than the real thing. It’s a kinder gentler President, who knew it was there (good speech writer). DDT says this is the time to reach high, choose greatness, and drain his swamp. Finally, it’s over, PHEW. A long slow-winded speech delivered as if asleep. He gave a speech of fake unity and considerable discord. By the end of his speech, the state of the Onion was peeled back to its rotten core with little good found inside. Good reading buddy. Still TBO

4 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 10 of 21.  Almost half way to another shutdown. We made it to the State of the Union speech. DDT is going to bleat out homilies and threats to further his ambitions to build a monument to his stupidity. This way future generations can make a pilgrimage to our southern border and know that DDT was here, sort of a modern Kilroy. DDT is billing the speech as a unity speech. I am trying to hold back on laughter until this evening, but one never knows. Meanwhile the documents from his inaugural scam are being subpoenaed by New York State prosecutors to determine the degree of illegal foreign contributors. This should be interesting to those of us who perceive the swamp surrounding DDT. Of course, we still have the wall ahead of us tonight. Will we get a lecture on all the rapists, human traffickers, and drug smugglers crossing the desert to get into the US? The truth is that most of the drugs and criminals come in through the regular border crossing points in trucks, cars, and airplanes. DDT is preparing for the 2020 elections trying to brand Democrats as radicals bent on destroying the country in order to care for the poor and get improvements in education and medical care. It’s a tragedy that the no-nothing republicans are so determined to take us back to the bad old days. TBO

 

3 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 9 of 21. It’s lucky we have President DDT to distract us from the mindless championship football game. DDT gave a serious interview just for the super bowl. Who says he can’t be funny. He’s hilarious. He’s talking about another government shutdown since the first one was so much fun for everyone or he’ll declare a national emergency. This last is justified. He’s the national emergency, I’ll declare it for him. Now Pelosi is a national disaster according to DDT, she’s rigid and hysterical, typical woman, just to win a political point and causing people to die all over the country. Intelligence, DDT said, who needs intelligence? For once he’s right. It’s served him well for his entire life. And he’s discovered that we have very fast airplanes and big, the biggest, cargo planes. That should take care of foreign policy. We can watch Iran from Iraq. This is like watching Russia from Alaska. Someone else tired that line, and how did that work out? The man is an amazing comedian, if only the nation would start laughing more. Bottom line, TBO

 

2 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 8 of 21. Rumor has it that Mueller is going to indict DDT-jr and that he in turn will do his father in with revelations. Who know 1) If the rumor is true and 2) if ketchup is thicker than water. If all is true, it couldn’t happen to a better family – pass the fries, please. I feel sorry to the Virginia governor a bit. Reprehensible as it is to appear in blackface or any other caricature of another race or ethnicity when young, if indeed he did that, the rest of his life has been very good. If I had to bet, I would bet that all of us did or said things when very young that would terminally embarrass us today. Even though I do not remember the details or the circumstances, I am almost sure that I said thoughtless things that were normal to the time. In the meantime, Venezuela continues to simmer with dueling demonstrations between the Maduro supporters and those of Guaido that were fortunately peaceful. Meanwhile, there is some good news. Job growth continues, and the economy is doing well. Up goes the stock market, or is it down, on good news. Who knows. Spineless Mconnell warns DDT on the emergency action with hell to pay if DDT uses that option. Yeah Right! The US is poised to withdraw from the nuclear arms treaty with Russia and start an arms race. Once before, I said that of DDT does not get 100 million people killed, he will be a success. As always, TBO

 

1 February: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 7 of 21. Time move slowly as the Senate wastes its time (according to DAHT) on discussing immigration and border wall compromise. Sad but true. They are wasting their time if there is no give on the part of DDT. Peculiar, Elizabeth Warren apologizes for revealing the results of her DNA test. Another tempest in a teapot. Just what we need in a time when there are now 10 declared Democratic candidates for President and one possibly independent candidate (Boycott Starbucks) that, if he runs, will insure the re-election of DDT. You know this is the case since now DDT is encouraging him to run. DDT says he is not the target of Mueller, RIGHT! He says this information came from Rosenstein. Another very believable story. If DDT were a normal human being instead of the compulsive liar that we all know, we might believe the story. But for now, we are just waiting. The biggest news with the potentially biggest bang is the suspension of the nuclear and missile treaty with Russia. Of course, it is well documented that the Russians were cheating (surprise), but complete abandonment will set off a nuclear arms race and make it more likely to have an accidental prelude to all out war. Maduro’s attempt to ship gold to bolster his regime has failed, at least for now. The noose is tightening, but his army is still committing atrocities. DDT is outraged at Foxconn for betraying his campaign pledge of 13,000 jobs promised by Foxconn. Great negotiator, DDT. As usual, TBO.

 

31 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 6 of 21 Another relatively quiet day on the DDT front. A few innocuous tweets, one of which was happiness at the Federal reserve Bank not raising interest rates. Bumped the stock market up a bit. Goodie! There is one amazing thing that happened today. Spineless Mconnell got upset with DDT’s calls for rapid withdrawals from Afghanistan and Syria. He called for a non-binding resolution from his equally spineless cohorts. At least it looked like growing a spine or was it just calcification. I’ll give them credit when they do something binding on DDT. Perhaps getting 60 votes together and override a veto taking some control back from the uninformed, but well formed, imperial gut. The wall is going nowhere fast. This is a good thing, except that the government might go on furlough again in about 2 weeks if DDT throws another tantrum “my way or outta my way”. In case some of you haven’t noticed, there’s been record cold, which is one of the symptoms of general global warming. The global warming is causing disruption of the Arctic air flow high in the atmosphere (stratosphere) causing the jet stream to swing south freezing us out. The rest of it, stronger storms, higher temperatures, less rain, and rising oceans will cause a lot more trouble in the near future. Of course, DDT doesn’t believe any of this since his gut tells him to just throw in another hot dog and ignore the obvious. As usual, the only remedy is to TBO

 

30 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 5 of 21 It is cold today and will be colder tomorrow. His royal lack of intelligence (DDT to you) is attacking the only really intelligent people in his administration, his Intelligence Officials (spy chiefs to you) who disagree with his false pronouncements. What a nut case, he feels his gut rumbling as a sign from above that he’s right and everyone else are idiots. Perhaps it’s the latest burger gone bad – burp. One retired admiral is becoming really scared of DDT’s “willful ignorance”. Oh well, hopefully the nation and all of us will survive without a major war breaking out. This 4-year period will be looked back on as an aberration, a flaw in a democratic system. This is what the electoral college was designed by the constitutional framers to prevent. Too bad we destroyed the power of a final review of the competence of a presidential candidate before allowing him or her to take office. And then there is Mueller who’s probe is coming to an end, hopefully. It appears as if some of the Mueller documents that were given to Russian defendants were altered and leaked to interfere with the investigation. What a surprise. Oh well, you know the drill. TBO

 

29 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 4 of 21 Intelligence chiefs of staff testified about the dangers that DDT thinks are nonexistent. Tomorrow DDT is almost certain to fire back. More interesting than DDT is the situation in Venezuela where the Russian are starting to interfere. Rumors have it that Russian troops (unofficial troops) are travelling to Venezuela to cause further trouble. Oil payments to the dictatorship have been curtailed. This should cause a major crisis of about 1 billion per month. The question is will the putative president survive? Let’s hope so. I’m tired abut writing abut DDT, it needs new material not the same old trash. As always, TBO.

 

28 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 3 of 21. So much hanging in the wind. Whitaker say that Mueller is almost done, but he also says that he may not release the actual report but a bowdlerized (actually Whitakerized) version. Hopefully, the House will get the full report one way or another. Nancy has issued an invite for DDT to give his special speech full of BS so that we can all enjoy the show. It’s time we started laughing at the clown instead of worrying about him. Charlie Chaplin did a good job mocking and laughing at another dictator in the not too distant past. Then there is the national emergency that DDT has threatened to invent after 3 weeks so that it can be struck down by the courts. That way he can claim he really really tried, but those pesky liberal judges got in the way again. Tonight is a short story because it still is the same story, a stupid conniving leader thinks that if he does the same dumb thing over and over it will come out better next time. Next time TBO.

 

27 January: Tick Tock Tick Tock Day 2 of 21 and nothing happened, I mean nothing at all other than DDT’s tweetsturm (a little German thrown in for fun) and Kevin McCarthy bloviating on Meet the Press. He speaks faster than DDT, but the intellectual content is about the same as it should be coming from the wrong end of the bull. From DDT: the number of illegals has jumped from over 11 million to over 25 million just since he became president – shocking, and it has cost an extra 18 billion just this month. WOW. Shameless lies, but then what can you expect for someone funnier than SNL. If we all would just laugh at him more, perhaps he would go away (except for late Saturday night). I cannot believe it, more Democratic candidates for President. Perhaps we should elect them all and rule my 2/3 majority vote. Couldn’t be worse that what we have now, rule from 2/3 of DDT’s gut. This is scary especially after a double portion of greasy chicken fingers, buuuurp. DAHT says that after three weeks it's back to fun furlough time again. Yes, more free vacation time for those government leeches. Venezuela stews on with DDT’s favorite country messing in the mix. Putin would like to keep the corruption laden V-Mafia in control with just a little help from Russia and Cuba. Well, Europe has given Maduro 8 days to hold a free and fair election or they will never talk to him again. That’s a frightening prospect. I am sure the corrupt fat cats in V are shaking in their Gucci’s. Roger Stone is going down, his fellow rat J. Corsi is willing to spill his beans verifying the terms if the indictment. I hope the orange suit fits Roger well in the near future. Keep watching and hope that we can TBO.

 

26 January: If you want an eye-opener, just look at the Washington Post’s article on The Federalist Society (type query into Google – Title: Conquerors of the Courts) and you will see a growing organization of outsize influence that is shifting our courts and laws towards the wealthy and privileged. This is an extremely well researched and well written article that I highly recommend. It’s a quick look into a stealth organization that has gradually developed a stranglehold on our government, which has been accelerated by DDT’s ascension to the presidency. The rest of the day’s activity is more of the posturing of DDT in the face of allowing the government to reopen for 3 weeks with the threat of closing it again if he does not get his wall monument. Pelosi is still denying him access to the House chamber for his state of the union message for reasons that I do not understand yet. I’m sure she will make clear in the next few days. The bottom line, is that the government is still a mess and the only solution is TBO.

 

25 January: A momentous day. DDT caved totally. Of course, he had to give an extended speech to try to spin his need for a wall using fabricated “facts”. Nice try bozo, but most intelligent people can see right through you. His loyal base is furious, especially with the nonsense about women being duct taped while crossing the border. DDT capitulated on his cornerstone foreign policy item causing a furious reaction from talking heads (FOX) and his base. Even your fellow Republican zombies are starting to wake up. Watch out DDT that apocalypse may be upon you even if you invoke your imagined EMERGENCY POWERS. Then there is Mueller prowling around in your attic shaking the cobwebs of your financial and political enterprise. One can only hope that justice is served, and a lifetime of cheating gets its just rewards. The investigation keeps getting closer and closer. All that remains is for Russia to release whatever it is that they have on DDT that make him act like their B… Fortunately for civil servants, both the House and Senate have passed the short-term bill to reopen the government without funding for the monument to DDT’s folly (The WALL). It would be like King Tut-Tut’s pyramid on our southern border. Lovely. Archeologists in the far future will love it digging up the remnants and trying to figure out why the damn thing was built. Ant then we have Roger Stone’s arrest in the early morning hours at his home in Florida. Nice touch FBI. He’s out on a quarter million bail loudly proclaiming innocence. Good luck buddy. The indictment reveals links between DDT’s campaign and Russia’s interference in the campaign through stealing Democratic party information and funneling it through Wikileaks. I would not be surprised in the slightest if DDT were directly involved in helping the Russians subvert the election process. Sarah Sanders did her level lying best to try to distance the administration from the Stone swamp. She said, “This has nothing to do with the President and certainly nothing to do with the White House”. Reporters on the scene reported a significant lengthening of her nose, Hmm. Perhaps he will make a deal and resign. Failing that, we need to TBO either by impeachment or the 2020 election.

 

24 January: Boring. Senate to vote on 2 useless end the shutdown bills, both doomed to failure. Come on guys on both sides put up a serious bill Perhaps permanent status for the DACA kids, and 6 billion for strengthening the border in meaningful way short of building a DDT monument. Pelose is sticking to her principles and not inviting DDT for the State of the Union message. Nothing new there. Wilbur Ross is tone deaf on the furloughed workers. What can you expect from a super-rich guy? And Cohen is now subpoenaed to testify. Shocking non-news. Border patrol catches migrants climbing over a border wall with ladders. If DDT has his way, they will just have to get bigger ladders. Stupid idea – a wall. And we have a new larger migrant caravan starting its journey to the US legal port of entry. The economy is faltering and the stock market has jitters. All this non-news today. Have fun guys. Meanwhile TBO.

 

January 23 (AM): Reading the Washington Post this morning was very discouraging, especially an article reviewing DDT’s proclivity for praising and preferring dictators around the world. His behavior has encouraged anti-democratic forces in eastern Europe, South America, N. Korea, Philippines, and other places. The trend is very bad for individual freedom and safety. Even in the US, forces unleashed make unsafe conditions for minorities and women. What is going on is a walking back of extensive progress made during previous years. Now, the US Supreme Court (SC) has weighed in with its conservative majority on Trans people and the military and will soon weigh in on the US census (citizen question to suppress minority counts) and on voting rights issues. By the end of the DDT administration the US will be a different place, a less friendly tolerant place. Of course, all the other garbage is still unfolding with the ongoing fight over the border wall using Civil Servants and public services as hostages, reduced tax receipts causig ever increasing national debt, and an economy that is starting to sag. The two bills before the Senate to end the shutdown are likely farces to attempt to shift blame rather than serious legislation. More later today. TBO.

23 January PM: The biggest news is happening in Venezuela where the leader of the National Assembly is being recognized as the legitimate president of the country. It’s dangerous, since Maduro still has at least some of the military’s support. Hold your breath. There may be hope for what used to be South America’s wealthiest country. On the home front, DDT is fuming and fussing about not being able to give the State of the Union message in the traditional place, the House of Representatives. Nancy Pelosi is resisting until the government is back at work. DDT’s proposal for the wall and concessions that the Democrats might like is filled with poison pills, probably based on advice from his super right-wing advisors. The racial prejudice in some of these poison pills is palpable. DDT announced that the furlough could last a while longer. Federal workers are now going to miss a second paycheck. Lovely. Julian Assange is in the news again. Apparently, Ecuador is making Assange’s stay in their embassy increasingly precarious. Assange is worried that the US may request extradition of the miscreant. He’s right to worry, but the DDT administration is refusing to release any charges against Assange. Very strange. On another front, the ignorant people against vaccination of their children have given rise to a measles epidemic near Portland Oregon. There has got to be a penalty of people endangering public health. Remember vote in 2020 and consider impeachment - TBO.

 

22 January: DDT’s very boring company digs his hole deeper. DDT is now putting forth proposals that do not get his wall built and do not satisfy any of the Democrats demands. Furlough continues. Go for permanent DACA and you may have a starting point for negotiations. In the meantime, Washington burns (the rest of the country). The NY Post has a headline that Schumer and McConnell have reached an apparent agreement. The Post is famous for headlines with no backup in fact. But, one can hope. DDT is preparing his failing State of the Union message. He can lie (what a shock) and claim the union is strong (never better in 200 years) or tell the truth (real shocker) and warn that we are on the edge of a precipice of declining revenues and declining economic activity. Of course, the rich have cause to be worried. There is the possibility that in the next few years they will have to pay their fair share of taxes. A tax hike on the wealthy seems logical given that their share of the national and world wealth has risen so dramatically. If a tax increase does not happen now, it will almost certainly happen after 2020. The building debt is intolerable. Our sensitive Supreme Court seems to have no sense for trans people wanting to serve in the military if they are physically and mentally qualified. But, DDT plays to his very base base. As usual, TBO.

 

21 January: Today is a day devoted to celebrating an American hero, Martin Luther King Jr. I am not going to sully this day with details of the bigotry that has been unleashed recently in America. Not everything was perfect about MLK by a long shot, but he made a permanent change in America for the good. His aspirations are far from being fully achieved. America is known for its zig-zag course towards betterment for all. We’ve been down this road many times. So far, the result has always been a steady, but gradual improvement in quality of life for all. At any given time, individuals and groups suffer for the shortcomings of the public and its leaders, but in the end, progress occurs on the backs of the abused and the aspirations of real leaders. So today, it praise for MLK and all he stood for, and the millions who worked so hard in behalf of betterment for all.

 

20 January: It’s Sunday and nothing too much is happening. Sort of a day of rest. Except for the talking heads on Fox News (Ann Coltier) sort of exploding over the idea that DDT offered any kind of compromise to get a portion of his wall built. Of course, just offering a 3-year delay for the original DACA kids does not begin to solve the problem. Democrats simply ignored DDT causing his blood pressure to rise. He went from orange to red. That’s an improvement in color, it goes better with his fake combover hair. At least the red face is real. Meanwhile the furlough goes on and damage to the US and unpaid workers continues. This getting beyond simply stupid and becoming tragic. The tragedy part will accelerate as services to the public diminish and as unpaid furloughed workers (civil servants and especially sad for contractors) increasingly cannot feed and house their families. Come on Republicans in the Senate. Pass a bill and prepare to override DDT’s veto. Do something for the country and not just for yourselves. Meanwhile DDT's Syria stupidity smolders and could become another Iraq situation. ANd then tere's the stupidity in England with today's bombing seemingly by the Irish.  As usual TBO (DDT and Theresa May).

 

19 January: Dumbo is at it again. He’s offered a 3-year extension of DACA for his border wall. What garbage, democrats will not fall for it. It’s a non-starter. The best thing is DDT is tryng to sell his phony plan as a Democratic proposal. Then there is the ongoing story about Cohen’s upcoming testimony to congress. Mueller says there are inaccuracvies, but Buzzfeed sticks by its story. We’ll see how this plays out. Today is going to be a short piece, since I am on the other side of my known world. Bottom line is TBO, More later, if I get time.

 

18 January: The furlough wears on. More and more government workers are being called back from lines in free food kitchens and unemployment offices to continue their work for DDT so as to minimize the impact of his stupid stubbornness on his “base”. It is base indeed, in the full meaning of the word. It describes perfectly those who would let families go without support to further a misguided notion of national security. What fools. Most of the immigration occurs at legal entry points as does the drug smuggling. Comparatively little comes over the unfenced border – almost nothing in real terms. In the meantime, it looks as if Mannafort was engaged in Russian manipulations even after he had been convicted by Meuller’s team. He and other campaign officials were clearly toadies of the Russian regime and its efforts to manipulate the 2016 election. What sleaze. Of course, there us the usual scandal from DDT (surprise?). It appears now that DDT directed Michael Cohen to lie to Congress. Great move for our idiot president – incompetently CYA (most of you know what that means). Ah yes, DDT cancels Pelosi’s trip. I’m sure she’s devastated. Better is the disinvite issued to DDT for the State of the Union message, which would have been summarized in one word, “PRECARIOUS”. We do not need a “Speech Of Lies” to tell us that everything is better than it’s ever been in the history of the world. Finally, people are starting to ignore DDT and deny him the publicity he so craves. It's the wrestling with a pig joke. You both get dirty, but the pig (DDT) love it. The economists are predicting a recession in 2019, but what do they know? However, with a raw Brexit looming, spending dropping, tax receipts decreasing, government debt increasing and personal credit debt increasing, they may have a point. OOO, we have a Republican congressman telling another congressman (Democrat) “Go back to Puerto Rico”. What sensitivity those trashy Republicans have. Perhaps we should investigate the parentage of the Republican congressman and deport him to his parent's (or grandparent's) country of origin. Wait do that, and there will be almost no one left in the US, Sigh. Stupid, right? As usual, the only solution is TBO.

 

16 January: Quit whining. Get a loan and pay your bills. We are only into the 4th week. So goes the astute advice from DDT’s chief economic advisor, Kevin Hassett, The statement made so forthrightly was a bit obscured by his mumbling, even when he tried to be clear, but the silver spoon he was born with kept getting in the way. These idiots have not a clue about the lives of real working people. I gotta love these people who keep the caviar market vibrant (Russian caviar at that). Meanwhile, government workers and their contractors are flooding the food pantries for free food to keep their kids fed enough to survive this ridiculous shutdown. Plus the people with diabetes who can no longer get their overpriced insulin that you promised to make affordable. Shame on you, DDT. At least the Feds, but not the contractors, will get back pay to offset those Hassett loans. Of course, there is the slave labor aspect of all this with more than 50,000 Feds required to work with no pay just to minimize the political fallout for DDT. C’mon DDT, declare mental bankruptcy and resign. It won’t hurt, I promise. And, then you can go back to living in your gilded cage, or in a steel one for tax evasion or some other crime. Thanks to DDT’s show of weakness on the troop pullout from Syria, 4 soldiers got killed by the completely defeated ISIS gang. Way to go DDT. Reminds me of George W’s MISSION ACCOMPLISHED statement. Oh goody, now the GSA inspector general’s (IG) office has found that the GSA ignored the Emoluments clause of the constitution when it allowed DDT to keep the lease on the building used for the Trump Hotel in DC. Better late than never. Finally, Nancy Pelosi is showing that she has gumption. She has basically disinvited DDT from the State of the Union message that DDT’s speechwriters have been so hard at work to complete it on time. Submit it in writing, or delay until the government is open again. Way to go Nancy, hold those cold feet to the fire. As usual, there is only one answer, TBO.

 

15 January: While it’s a fun game to track everything that DDT says, the bottom line it’s all just noise. Negotiating with DDT is a little like negotiating with a snake. The snake doesn’t give a damn about what your point of view happens to be, but rather what’s in it for the snake. As the hamlet snake said, “To bite or not to bite, that is the question, tis nobler in my small mind to sling some arrows and cause outrageous fortune, or to take arms and simply bite and do away with my perceived troubles, So die, I say, your flesh will shuffle off this mortal coil and bother me no more. That’s DDT in a nutshell. All noise and disloyalty to “friends” and country. Disagree and receive a coward’s knife in your back. Steve King is down, but no out. DDT asked about SK, said he does not follow the situation. What? Snake sleeping under a rock. Oh wait! DDT does not read or listen. That explains everything and nothing. The only solution is for our Republican friends in the Senate to develop a little backbone and band together and override a possible veto. Get the government working again and stymie the snake. As usual, prepare for 2020 and TBO

 

14 January: I wrote a rather long piece for 14 January, but this site did not save it, nor did I. I apologize for the oversite, but there is no way I can rewrite yesterday’s vitriol against DDT. Rest assured, it was just more of the same sound and fury signifying nothing. It did have a little news in it that is now lost in the shrouds of reporting. It had a little Brexit madness, but nothing like the madness that occurred today on 15 January when the Brits voted Theresa May's folly into the ground. Now we must wait and see whether the abject failure of a leader TM destroys the United Kingdom. Perhaps Hadrian was right in building the northern wall. As for DDT and his Republican band of misfits, TBO

13 January: We all know who is the biggest horse’s hindquarters, DDT (aka DHAT) has that status hands down. Now we have a contest for who comes in second (perhaps Lindsey Graham or his soulmate Ted Cruz). I just watched today’s Meet the Press with the bearded wonder Ted Cruz. His performance was amazing, just a slicker version of DDT, lying and obfuscating the issues. He spent the entire time trying to blame anyone but DDT and the Republicans for this farce. Now there are serious questions about whether we have a Manchurian (Moscovian) president in office doing things that further Russian goals, this in addition to the collusion investigation during the election. Lovely. When asked directly, DDT could not bring himself to absolutely say NO! DDT had the US interpreter’s notes confiscated from a private meeting with Putin. This is insane behavior on the part of a President. Now no one in the government or the public knows what agreements were made between DDT and Putin. Even DDT has no idea with his fantastic memory making up fantastic "facts". Here comes the Mueller probe and his report with a lot of fear about its suppression before the Congress and public get a look at it. There’s a circus brewing on the Democrat side with everyone and their cousin announcing for President. We saw this show in 2016 on the Republican side. Hopefully, this settles out to just a few potential aspirants before the debates occur. Nothing is happening that is really worth talking about – just atmospherics. Meanwhile real people are suffering, people that work faithfully for the government, some now without pay. Shameful and sad. It looks like there may be a diversion brewing. The NSC (National Security Council) just asked for military options to possibly strike Iran. A war would certainly take our minds off DDT’s shenanigans. Lurking on the background is the international upset that would come from Brexit. Britain, make sure you buy massive supplies of Aspirin to deal with the headaches that will come with a no agreement exit. Good luck dis-United Kingdom. TBO.

12 January: DDT is on a tweetstorm again, a friend suggested Trumper-Tantrum. Sounds good to me. In some ways it is the response of an immature child, or as an international relations expert put it, his rants are those of an ailing dictator under siege. Whichever it is, I do not like it. A person like that might lash out and become truly dangerous. Already he makes unhinged decisions such as the abrupt Syria pullout abandoning our allies on the ground and ceding the territory to the Russians and partly to the Turks. DDT says he's sitting in the Whitehouse just waiting for the Democrats ot fold and make a deal (my way or the highway deal). If things weren’t bad enough already, we have a white supremacist in congress (allegedly Steve King) along with calls to face some consequences like expulsion. That would work. There really is no room for those kinds of creeps in government. All of a sudden, the Russia connection is hitting the news again with Paul Manafort and his former personal lawyer Cohen. It should become interesting. Then there is the pending Mueller report for which we are all holding our collective breaths. All this sound sordid? It does to me. TBO

11 January: The furlough and its attendant problems rumble on. DDT smiles, ducks and weaves. What me care? I’ll do what I damn please, I’ll just create a state of fake emergency. Once he does that, there a number of things he can do with his increased power other than the border wall. This is extremely dangerous. Congress needs to take this power back to itself. The last thing the US needs is an ignorant dictator. Ever hear of Maduro? It could happen here. What else is new. Well, today a poor teenager in Wisconsin escaped the killer of her parents. Good news, yes. The Secret Service agents guarding DDT and other poohbahs are not being paid. Not good. Putting your life on the line, but not being respected is really a poor plan. Heartwarming is the response of communities to the plight of unpaid Federal workers and contractors by making available free resources. Applause! Oh my god…DDT’s chief economic advisor says that furloughed government workers are better off, since they don’t have to use vacation days. He needs to have his head examined for termites, the blockhead. Time to get rid of these incompetent people. TBO

10 January: The shutdown continues with DDT effectively using slave labor to run operations deemed necessary to minimize public discontent. True, the civil service will eventually get compensated, but th support staff people, generally contract workers, will not. Pompeo is in the middle east giving speeches that criticize Obama for trying to use diplomacy instead of war to make policy. There was plenty to fault Obama for in his muddle policy of being overly cautious, but the new DDT-Pompeo policy of asking countries to rely on the US to counter Iran is a joke. Anyone that relies on DDT needs to have professional psychiatric help. DDT is getting ready to declare a national emergency in an attempt to obtain the funds needed to build his wall. Even if he does so, not much will get done during DDT’s remaining 2 years. There’s the inevitable litigation over land seizures, rounding up huge numbers of workers, and first building a border road to be able to move heavy construction equipment. The next president will probably stop the project before it really gets started. But, DDT will have fulfilled a campaign promise, at least in principle. This coming election season is going to be chaos as more and more Democrats are announcing, or planning to announce, their candidacy for president. I can just see the debate stage with 30 candidates each getting 1 minute. Hopefully, this will sort itself out before it becomes a disaster. According to a headline, the US is starting to withdraw troops from Syria. This will cause consternation from the Kurds who have bled for us over the several years of fighting against ISIS. Nothing like having the US as a reliable ally. The only way out of this mess is to throw the unread idiot out of the Whitehouse. We need some stability and reliability soon. TBO

9 January: Today DDT (aka DAHT) used the negotiating skills for which he is so famous. "What? You do not agree with me?" Slam (fist on desk). Sounds of chair scraping backwards. “I’m disgusted, you are not giving me what I want. Bye-Bye” Thinking “So long suckers”. Sounds of footsteps receding and door closing. Two other voices: “What the hell was that”. Ta Da. That was Super Negotiator. Defender of Nonsense. Fortunately, there is a bit of rational news. Mueller and Rosenstein are in the spotlight again. Rosenstein for voluntarily leaving as assistant AG and Mueller for finding a new connection between the DDT campaign and Russian interference. Yes, Dorothy, there are still grownups in the government. Less an less I admit, but still some. Meanwhile the shutdown continues led by the idiot full of sound and fury that signifies nothing (Faulkner). Nice move DDT. California is burning, and you are cutting back support for fire prevention and firefighting. I guess there are too many Democrats in California for FEMA to be allowed to operate. As with the furlough, it's mostly Democrats who are burning, and as with the furlough, they are now. Oh well. Two more years and then TBO.

8 January: I just watched DDT read a message from a teleprompter filled with shibboleths (lies and distortions). This was just a reworked campaign speech without the histrionics. I’ll give him credit, he did not directly call anyone names. This is a marked improvement over past performances. I use the word performances purposely, since this is what you were watching tonight. Manufactured fear mongering made up of falsehoods and distortions. Yes, people have been killed by undocumented immigrants with criminal records. And even far more by US citizens. The small amount of undocumented croime probably could have been partially prevented if there were more enforcement officers and judges, not a wall. As has been pointed out most of the drug smuggling comes across through legal entry points in trucks, cars, and vans. No border wall is going to affect this transshipment of poisons into the US. The solution is beefing up our immigration system to allow in the deserving and keep out the undesirables. If you want an economic barrier, then require some form of record checking that works and hold employers responsible for failing to uphold the law. Along with that, there needs to be a legal way to have temporary workers of sufficient numbers being paid wages that a US citizen would get in the same job. Quit the BS and reform our immigration system, help the high achieving kids brought here as young people, and provide a legal enforceable means for employment for those workers needed by US business. After listening to the great turkey, DDT, more than ever, TBO.

7 January: This one will be short. DDT is addressing the nation tomorrow on live TV about the need for a border wall. Until I hear directly from the great turkey, there’s not much to write about. This will be an attempt at national manipulation possibly somewhat along the lines of his campaign rallies. Or, will he just read a script prepared by his advisors. It should be interesting. Of course there’s lots pending in the future with all of the investigations and known subpoenas. The trick here is to control the ambitions of the newly elected far-left of the Democratic party. So please be careful, Democrats, do not overplay your hand. Then there is the economic “war” with China that DDT thinks he is winning. At best there will be no winner, with the US having the most to lose. This is especially true since DDT has alienated our natural allies in Europe and Japan. Bottom line, get rid of DDT. TBO

6 January: DDT is tweet storming to solidify his base, and so far, it seems to be working. A solid 30% of the country is with him, with the rest of the country wondering when the fool is going to stop. Another fun thing happened today. You remember Pat Roberts the hypocritical preacher turned congressman. His interview quoted him as saying that in his opinion DDT can do no wrong – he’s perfect. Of course, what’s really driving his opinion is a self-serving bunch of benefits in taxation that his churches have received and the ability of those churches to retain tax-free status while participating in partisan politics. It used to be that if you received tax free status from the federal government you were supposed to avoid outright favoritism for one party over the other. Not anymore. This is one that will come back around and bite the religious conservatives in the a…(hindquarters). Bolton is going around and essentially making his own foreign policy. Sooner or later the Bolton policy will show up on Fox news. When it does, this non-reading President is going to pop a cork, and POP there goes a Bolton (down the drain). Poor Israel. They are being given promises of security by our fearless leader. It’s fine to have these promises as long as you never need them. France is chaos, England is heading into chaos (Brexit looms), and Germany is not far behind with the center left faltering. At least one freshman congresswoman has called a spade a spade. Cortez has called out DDT as racist on 60- minutes. Now, this is not a revelation, but at least she has the courage to say it in public. DDT is going to defy the constitution and keep “temporary” cabinet replacements for the long term as an end run around the Senate confirmation process. Good luck. He's also angling to hjave th earmy build his war be declaring an emergency. Why do they wan t to impeach me, DDT bleats, when I am doing such a good job. But the good-bad news I that a huge Tuna fish caught off Japan’s coast fetched over 3 million dollars. The 3 million is the good news, and it is also the bad news, because it signals how depleted the Sushi grade tuna fish have become, Japan is playing a stupid game and refusing to limit fishing to let the stock recover. See, it’s not only DDT playing stupid. Bottom line in all of this, we need legislation to protect the environment, reduce power usage and use more renewables (require all new housing to have solar panels), limit money in politics, and protect labor from greedy industrialists and their stockholders. There’s a much longer list, but most of you know the list, or can make up your own list. So remember to vote in 2020 and TBO

5 January: I cannot believe it. DDT asked Pelosi “why does everyone want to impeach me?”. The negotiations over the border wall went nowhere today. Much yelling and screaming, but no progress. The one thing about some of the new representatives is that they are not taking slurs very easily. Alexandria Cortez really slammed the Republicans for calling her a “Little Girl”. Good for her. Things are coming unraveled in Syria. Now the Kurds are looking to make a deal with Assad. I can’t blame them with an unreliable partner like DDT. An amusing side note on the Syria debacle is that DDT asked Turkey to take on finishing ISIS. Now, in response Turkey is asking for extensive US assistance. This could be a bad joke on the US, since Turkey is hell bent on destroying our ally, the Kurds. For them ISIS will be a sideline. Oh well, what did I expect? TBO

4 January: Oh my, DDT says hyperbolically that the furlough of government employees and their contractors could last years. I realize that he is exaggerating, since he will be gone in 2 years if not sooner. And then he is threatening to use presidential non-existent powers to unilaterally declare a national emergency to totally take over the government and govern by fiat. This in order to get his wall built. It’s funny, and it’s crude, but a new young congresswomen, Rashida Tlaib, called DDT a MF who should be impeached. Many have thought along those lines with and without the crudities, but will congress have the spine to actually get rid of the menace? Reading the news seems to indicate that th system is beginning to break down. A significant number of non-paid government workers are mysteriously getting sick. These include TSA and other security workers, not to mention the immigration judges. Watch out DDT, the country is going to be flooded with those “bad” people, and it’s your fault. Of course, we have another idiocy brewing on the left with Alexandria Cortez calling for a 70% tax rate on the rich to fund her dreams. Yes, the rich should pay more, but not at a punitive level. This session of congress is going to be ”fun”. Stay tuned and TBO.

3 January: Still quiet in the US. The democrats are preparing to look into the shenanigans tha makes up DDT’s life before and after becoming President. I heard the new head of the Intelligence committee speak tonight. It sounds as if this will be a measured approach for fact finding and not some kind of political vendetta. This is good – facts but no BS. But DDT is pushing hard for his border wall without giving a damn for federal employees and their contractors. Of course, the Dems aren’t buying the BS. Basically, we are going to have to wait until things start to unravel. One good thing is that the Department of Justice is probing Interior Secretary Zinke for lying to investigators. Couldn’t happen to a better douche bag. Sorry for not having more material to discuss, but it will just have to wait. Stock market crashed a bit today, partly in response to DDT’s stellar negotiating prowess with China. Nancy Pelosi is now the official speaker of the house and various committee chairmen are in place. Let the fun begin. On the other side of the pond, Brexit still looms with no solution in sight, Ukraine is simmering, China has landed on the far side of the Moon, and the immigation courts in the US are backing up with ony 3 to 4 years delay.  DDT's immigration policies are working perfectly. Immigrants are caught and now released again. Perfect. TBO.

2 January: A day when almost nothing happened. The stock market was down and then the stock market was up. Change near zero. A little name calling, barely noticeable. Rand Paul is upset at Mitt Romney for telling the truth – always a problem for RP when it disagrees with his fantasy. MR wrote an op-ed about the way DDT behaves and his lack of character. Phew. How perceptive. At least MR did not plagiarize, it was all in his own words. Aside from his investment strategy involving boosting the stock of worthless companies he bought after he put the stock into his tax-free IRA, he's a nice honest guy. He's got your back, especially if you have significant amounts of money. Nice trick that IRA maneuver. Apparently legal but of questionable ethics. We have an upcoming meeting on the furlough between the great negotiator DDT and Pelosi. Should be interesting, if anything happens. At the very least we will get a burst of name calling and finger pointing from those very small hands. Sigh. Wait for tomorrow and perhaps there will be something worth writing about.  As usual. Organize, propagandize, and don't apologize. Vote in 2020. TBO

1 January 2019: It starts again. Another whole year ahead of us watching grown men play at being stupid. DDT is clearly incompetent and should not be President. At some point, DDT will go beyond what is tolerable, perhaps inviting a situation that could precipitate into war. Of course, one hopes not. In the meantime, the only thing I can do is to partially chronical the self-interested behavior of the President and his captive political lackeys. Eventually, a man (or one of the very few women) will stand up among them (Republicans) and do something for the nation. Well, tomorrow DDT will meet with congressional leaders to try to negotiate an end to the situation where federal workers are not paid, especially those required to work. But, all is not clear, DDT is taunting those who would end the furlough. Not a good sign. Headline reads, “Garbage and Human waste overflows in Parks because of the shutdown. Other situations are people that cannot pay for food or their housing. Not all is lost. It’s almost a joke. Pickup truck drivers are blockading Tesla charging stations again. For what purpose? It’s not clear at all. It’s called “icing” the ICE stands for Internal Combustion Engine. Presumably, this is a protest against people who are not using gasoline to screw with the climate. Very smart! But then look who’s doing it. Not very smart! Brazil’s new leader says he wants to become DDT-2. Someone please help us from this insanity. Too purposely follow in the steps of a loser is insanity, if you expect a different outcome. And DDT us a qualified loser. Nice, now the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) stops on Thursday. It will be interesting to see what else stops because of this. Bottom line, vote and TBO, unless hopefully, Congress will act first.  HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR 2019

31 December: We made it to the end of 2018 without 100,000,000 people getting killed in a stupid war. DDT is a success. Happy New Year. May 2019 be just as successful. The furlough is still on, but DDT says he’s ready to negotiate. I’ll believe it when I see it. Meanwhile the crap at the borders continues with no same policy about immigration in place except for DDT’s monument to futility, the concrete wall. Lizzie Warren has announced her intention to take on DDT in 2020. Big mouth already went after her. What a surprise. N. Korea is de de nuclearizing, Another surprise for fools. But, then again DDT and Kim are BFF’s, so no worry at all. Now we have mutual arrest development (mad), a variant of MAD that kept the world safe for 60 years. Enough for tonight, It’s New Year’s Eve and there’s always hope hover dim. I just had some NYE champaign, so I am temporarily in a good mood. I have wishes for all of humanity that 2019 will be a really good year. For those of you who refuesed to vote in 2016 or will not in 2020, here's a poem for you from my childhood. To wit: Inka bink a bottle of ink, the cork fell out and you stink.This time remove the stink and vote in 2020, TBO.

December 30: It seems as if Kellyanne Conway (KAC) cannot keep from yapping about nothing, as usual. It’s outrageous her using the children that died as pawns to accuse anyone but the current administration for responsibility. Her husband, poor guy, has actually called her out for lying in public. I cannot imagine the conversations at her home. It’s tragic having KAC as a spokesperson for DDT. The other Kelly, the good general, has made is farewell from being the grownup in the room to prevent DDT from following his worst gut-fed instincts. His letter of resignation and his interview wiith the LA Times are sad to read. The state of the nation is not very good and could get a lot worse with Kelly gone. I worry now that DDT is surrounding himself with nothing by yes-men and I-don’t-care-men. DDT’s tendencies is to try to do things that are against the law. Without an advisor that is willing and able to stand up against DDT, we may be in real trouble in the coming months. I can only unrealistically hope that Congress (Republicans and Democrats) will find him incompetent to hold high office. I used to worry about Pence because of his strong fundamentalist religious leanings but compared to DDT he would be a paragon for stability. Failing that, it’s wait and hold your breath until 2020. This is almost the last day of 2018, and we have survived so far. However, things are not linear, but can swing exponentially out of control with a single mistake. I wish everyone a Happy New Year for 2019 and may we all make it safely to 2020. TBO

29 December: 1st installment: DDT blames democrats for death of child in DDT’s holding pens with DDT’s own ICI personnel. Amazing what he will lie and obfuscate about. Take responsibility for your own actions – act like an adult. So SAD. Then of course, the idiot is cancelling the basic wage increase for federal workers in a fit of pique. Give me my wall, or you will suffer. I’m not sure what Federal workers have to do with that, but that will get sorted shortly in Congress. At least the Republican sham investigation to undermine Mueller is ending quietly, while the real investigation of DDT and all of his illegal financial arrangements is just starting. New York is already going after him, and Congress can do a really fine job. But. it is important to keep the investigation secured to facts only. 2nd installment: DDT cheats at golf, what a surprise, since he cheats at everything. The great Orange Cheeto hits drives to the woods, but his well bribed caddies sneakily redirect the ball back to the fairway. The whole game is just one big scam according to a golf pro that frequently play with him. A famous truism is that a man who cheats in golf also cheats in business. Who says that DDT is not consistent? Only a fool would make deals with this bozo. China is apparently negotiating an improved trade deal with DDT. Unfortunately, we will all pay for the bad negotiating capability of DDT. This is man who ignores the devil in the details, because in his previous business life ha never had any intention of living up to the contract terms. However, negotiating with China is different than refusing to pay a small contractor for work done. The China deals will be one-sided, but not our side. TBO

28 December: The pointless furlough of government workers continues. DDT doesn’t realize that when the House of Representatives reconvenes with Democratic control it’s just going to get tougher for him to do anything in his usual ridiculous way. It may take the house and senate to override a veto to get the government back to work. We’ll see if the republicans have any spine. We are living in Alice’s wonderland. The EPA no longer sees why the limits on Mercury for burning coal are essential for preserving human health. For most of us, this will not be a major issue, but for those living anywhere near a power plant, watch out. Your children, and you, will be at severe risk. This is another example of favoring rich people who never live near any industrial site. Stupid DDT has provoked the Iraqis to demand a US pullout of troops. That visit of his was so badly run that he offended everyone. The MORON strikes again with another burp from his gut. And then there is the slowly boiling problem with Ukraine. The Europeans are getting quite upset with the retention of the Ukrainian sailor’s detention and with the military buildup. WW3 anyone, on a lovely Sunday afternoon. As usual, TBO.

27 December: The year (2018) is whimpering to a close. All is quiet on the western front. Stock market is down again, so called dead-cat bounce. Actually, it was mostly computer trading on both days taking advantage of high speed trading. It’s the little guy with a retirement portfolio that suffers. DDT is back in his squirrel nest looking for nuts. He won’t have to look far. The nut cases are all around him spewing advice that goes with his gut (by the way, his gut cannot read). DDT is now claiming that most of the people not getting paid during the shutdown are democrats. He might be right. The CS is mostly made up of hard working people working for the good of the US. DDT’s idea is that Schumer and Pelosi must cave because of all those democrats not getting paid. Good play, dummy. DDT apparently gave away a secret SEAL deployment in Iraq. Nice. Now we have Russia warning Turkey to stay out of Syria to let Assad take control. Smart move DDT, pulling the US troops out of Syria so that chaos can reign. Putin and Asad are delighted as is ISIS, but Israel does not find this encouraging in the slightest. Our friends and fighting allies will probably get slaughtered. It’s good to know you can always count on DDT to stick a knife in your back. . What you are seeing are the seeds of a larger future war. Bottom line. Never work for the man, never rely on DDT, and never trust anything he says. I wish all of you a happy 2019, but without much hope as long as the house of DDT is in power.TBO

26 December: Nothing much has happened. The furlough continues, DDT flew to Iraq. I’m sure that went well. We’ll see tomorrow. DDT claims that the furlough will continue until the Democrats fold. Don’t hold your breath. And, the stock market zoomed upward 5% WOW. Tomorrow, it will zoom down. TBO

25 December: More Pablum to shovel while the shutdown continues. The recently fired Mattis is telling the troops to hang in there and “hold the line”, whatever that means. The red queen would say that it means whatever I want it to mean. Alice was never very good at refuting such logic. I was just reading an article on the nature of being conscious written by a well-known knee-deep philosopher. He spent a lot of time trying to discuss whether we had access to our thoughts and their origin in our brain. The pretty obvious answer is NO. We only become aware of abstract thoughts when translated into language, but primal thoughts, fear, hunger, fatigue etc. are perceived without verbalization. The dear doctor seems to overlook the fact that the brain’s conscious thought process is highly trainable from birth. By the time he gets to test his subjects, language is deeply embedded as a productive mechanism for thoughts and decisions. We are aware of those verbalized thoughts and sometimes can make choices from a reasoned list. But, it is good that he has spent 30 years studying this bit of non-verifiable science. Somebody has to do it. So back to Alice, she hears the queen redefining language and she is left in a quandary. In the absence of an agreed upon meaning, she is rightly short of words. Good deal, since “hold the line” is quite ambiguous and fraught with multiple meanings. Just like a qubit, we will have to wait until someone makes a measurement before we know the meaning. Scary, if you think of it, verbally or with your gut. So, I leave you this Christmas Day with Happy thoughts of all that could be and the hope of all that might be. TBO

24 December: Christmas Eve, and peace reigns throughout the land. Our government hums smoothly in the background providing good service to everyone and solace to those with tragedy. All led by a steady hand at the helm welcoming friends and opponents equally as having honest differences. Those differences are settled by mature and discreet discussion, with no idea suppressed, leading to near universal agreement in the congress. The financial situation is calm and modestly improving for everyone. A form of managed capitalism flourishes yielding benefits to all, from the lesser endowed to the truly brilliant in their own chosen fields of endeavor. The weather is relatively benign, with four moderate seasons in much of the country yielding modest amounts of snow rain and sunshine throughout the land. Global warming has occurred, but its effects are modest and have improved agriculture and reduced former extremes. I urge you to continue your support for this marvelous government and our brilliant population. Vote gently in 2020 for the elegant and thoughtful members of local and national governments. I bid you adieu in this most peaceful of evenings with the most amazing wishes for a marvelous holiday and Christmas along with continued peace and prosperity in the coming year. I remain your faithful chronicler of our unbridled and unrivaled success as this year ends and for the coming year.

23 December: Out Out Damn Mattis. Don’t darken my cabinet again. If I wanted advice I’d have asked for it (said the DDT). Now shut up and stay quiet, no talk shows. Right. Oh well, now we need someone in the daycare center to feed Pablum to DDT so he can regurgitate it in little itty bitty tweets. This congress needs to get rid of him as unfit to be President. Before he was disgusting, now he’s still disgusting, but also scary. Some of the Republican Senators are becoming honest and calling it a “made up shutdown” to distract for other stuff that is really dangerous. 1) Pullout from Syrai and Afghanistan and 2) from the massing of Russian troops on the Ukraine border. Prepared for war, Europe? Not really. And then there is the festering mess with China and N. Korea. Way to go DDT! The man of multiple messes and deals from his gut. C’mon guys, get rid of him – 25th amendment – that’s what it is there for. We can’t wait for 2020.

22 December: Headline: Shutdown to drag on for days as Congress adjourns. On the plus side, some Senators are returning and DDT is still in Washington. Nothing will get done for now, and then when the new session starts in January, DDT will have to contend with the Democrats in control in the House. Go Pelosi! Another official quits in disgust, Brett McGurk, special envoy for dealing with the ISIS problem. Good for him, bad for us. More belches due from DDT’s gut. Just think if you had saved your pennies for a vacation to a national park, and when you get there it is closed. Bummer! Oh well, find the nearest Walmart and camp in their parking lot. I’m sure it is just as good. At least there will not be any bears or alligators, and you can get the red-light special (Oh wait, that was K-Mart, and they are out of business). Fret not; the way things are going we’ll all be out of business. Good news! NORAD will still track Santa for the kiddies – no shut down there – unless ISIS shoots a missile at Santa. Mission accomplished! Now DDT is going after his newly appointed AG, Whitaker, for not reigning (checking) in the NY prosecutors. Tsk tsk. Perhaps Whitaker is more honest than you believed. You (DDT) can always fire him. The NY prosecutors dared to mention DDT’s involvement with Michael Cohen and all those (fake news) illegal campaign contributions. How exciting! Vote is 2020 and TBO, or impeach the idiot in 2019.

21 December: DDT’s trademarked way of governing continues. It’s a mixture of stupidity, cupidity, and confusion. I would like to say, “if it’s not one it’s the other”. But, no, it’s all three at once, always. Today we have the wall and the furlough, a really long furlough. Congress has adjourned for the holidays and DDT has adjourned for his tacky palace in Florida. Good hunting, bite in the butt, alligators. Good news, Ruth Bader Ginsberg has survived another close call. Lung cancer discovered very early because she went in to the doctor’s for a totally unrelated reason. She is now cancer free and fully equipped to remain a thorn in DDT’s side. GO GINSBURG. Even the bears are confused by the Park Service shutdown. There will be a shortage of tourists to chase and terrify. But, no worry, the bears will just watch FOX news after sundown and scare everyone. Funny how the stock market has followed the history of all of DDT’s other investments. First, optimism based on false information, followed by collapse and bankruptcy. The stock market won’t particularly affect DDT, but all those schnooks that believed in DDT and invested their pensions in stocks are screwed. Take your losses and get out. Ok, enough snark for tonight. Vote in 2020 and TBO. Even better, write your senator and congressman to impeach the bum. Get him out of there. Even Pence will be better.

20 December: Matis is gone. He was the last grownup in the room. Now our favorite idiot will just talk to an echo chamber and his big gut. Perhaps DDT is right, and that is where his pea brain resides. Matis must have been frustrated beyond belief. I wonder if there will be aftereffects on his life, you know a form of psychological PTSD. I can see him run from a room every time the evening news comes on and the orange jackass appears. Now DDT is going for steel slats for his border wall. It’s the economy wall perhaps paid for by the GoFundMe millions raised in just a few days (now being refunded). Paul Ryan said in his farewell address that Orange has become a brand in politics. Shhh..Actually he said outrage, but Orange is funnier for a man who became a joke. Bye Paul Ryan. Vote in 2020 and TBO.

19 December: Paul Ryan delivered his farewell address, his raison d’etre, his baloney reasons, his chicken feathered morality, his whiney exit. “If only everyone had played nice, and done exactly what I wanted, then we could have screwed the poor and helped the rich the way god intended". Personally, I’m glad the moral coward is gone. I had some hope that a person who held himself up as moral and a family man would have some compassion for other people’s families. Not to be.

An Epitaph for when God calls Paul Ryan back

Here lies the Speaker Paul Ryan

Too much a coward for even tryin

Afraid to stand tall for common decency

Because of risk for his short lived regency

A man who counted his chicken feathers yellow

To keep his orange colored lyin base so mellow

                                   RIP

It appears that shutdown has been averted. Not 100% certain as of this writing. But then the action starts all over again in February, but this time with the Democrats in control of the House. It should be interesting to watch. No border wall in the current deal. DDT seems to have caved, but his base is screaming mad. We’ll see if he signs the temporary budget bill. Now DDT is promising to abruptly bring US troops home from Syria and abandon our allies (mostly the Kurds). He’s earned his abusive title DAHT. The stock market is falling (Obama’s fault) and DDT owns it. The result should be less buying and an economic slowdown. I’m sure he will find someone else to blame, but will anyone listen? I can’t wait for 2020 to TBO.

18 December: The judge in Flynn’s case ripped into him on his behavior in 2016 accusing him of possible treason. I think judge dear has lost it. At least from what I know, there was nothing in his behavior that warrants the use of the T-word. Yes he lied to the FBI and the vice president. Yes his company worked for Ukraine and lobbied without registering. But, Treason? I do not see it. Finally, after admitting he has lost it, the judge blathered he did not mean to imply that Flynn has actually committed treason and postponed sentencing until March. Dummy judge. What a surprise, the Russian troll farms are still at it. They have never stopped, and out fearless leader (HA HA) does nothing except go on vacation to his gilded palace in Florida. Kavanaugh is back in the news again, but I have to study it a bit before commenting. The gist is that he is being excused from serious offenses because he is now a confirmed Supreme Court Justice. New wrinkle on crime and punishment. McSally loses (in Arizona) and now wins in Arizona (filling John McCain’s seat). Oh well. That’s politics. As if there was not already enough trouble, Theresa may is considering a “No Deal” Brexit for maximum economic turmoil. That’ll teach em. That’s enough for tonight. Vote in 2020 and TBO.

17 December: Comey, that darling of the democrats, you know, the guy that single handedly sunk Clinton’s chances at winning the election in 2016 with his remarks about her email server a week before the election. Today, he went after Republicans for not standing up to Trump and all the lies about the FBI. He tries to distinguish between standing up for American values and the idiocy of Republican attacks on the country and government. The famous lawyer Dershowitz has lost his marbles. He’s trying to claim that lying to the FBI is OK, not a crime, but something that any sensible person would do. Sometimes when a person gets older they should have the good sense to realize that they are in their dotage and just fade away. A better example is the total nutcase Rudi G. The GOP is trying to distance themselves from the Obamacare debacle, when it was Republicans that got rid of the mandate tax that made the whole plan work and was the focal point of the Texas judge’s reason for trying to invalidate the medical care for people who cannot afford insurance. Read and weep. Vote in 2020 and TBO

16 December: All’s well in DDT land. He’s attacking SNL for performing a parody of what it might be like if DDT was not president. Basically, everyone was happy. I don’t see how he could be upset with the truth. Of course this is just an extension of his general dislike of the press. Nothing is new there. Obamacare is still spinning in front of us in spite of the attack from the moron in chief. Evcen Fox news is getting tired of all the BS being put out by DDT and his mouthpiece RG. Fox News’ Chris Wallace tore into Rudi G “I’m asking for the truth”. Sunday is a slow day on the DDT front. More to come when the insult machine fires up. Well, perhaps not too much. Our overworked president is taking a much deserved 2 week vacation in Florida. That way he can increase his daily TV time from 6 to 10 hours. Vote in 2020 and TBO

15 December: It’s almost the end of 2018. It looks like we’ll make it after all. DDT has been a screaming success. He has not started a major war, the US constitution still stands, we are not yet living in a dictatorship, we still have a vilified, but free press, basic services are still available to most people (food, power, homes, clean water (hmmmm)), and medical care. The last used to be for everyone, but that judge in Texas thinks that only the deserving should have access to a doctor. We have much to be thankful for, mostly the gross incompetence of DDT. DDT is now calling for GREAT (cheap but useless) healthcare now that the ACA has been trashed. For those of you that are women, remember that being female is a preexisting condition, so stay healthy or, better yet, get rich. Looks like his new chief of staff Mulvaney is not as dumb as I thought. Even he said in public that DDT is a “terrible human being”. Way to go M. Now is your turn in the barrel Mick. It’s fun watching DDT unravel. His misuse of campaign financing is coming back to bite him in the ***. Get off your duff, organize for 2020, and TBO.

14 December: Well it finally happened. One of those conservative (read radical right) judges has declared Obamacare unconstitutional. Yes, the poor do not deserve medical care. They should just hurry up and die. That would save a lot of money. This country is heartless sometimes. Not taking care of people that need medical attention is unconscionable. One good thing has happened; Mulvaney is going to be acting chief of staff at the Whitehouse. I don’t care about that particularly, but it does get him out of day-to-day mis-running the Consumer Protection Bureau and other meanness’s he foists on us through the agencies he runs. Looks like Mueller has spent 25 million so far. Money well spent. All kinds of other things are happening in the world from Canada telling the US not to play political games with the Chinese executive from Huawei, China rolls back some tariffs, but still plays the economic rogue, and the tension between Ukraine and Russia is now affecting Greece. Meanwhile DDT just sits back and does nothing (useful). It's a long way to 2020, but no greater humiliation could be put on DDT than to lose the election by a landslide. So, please organize the opposition to DDT and vote in 2020 to TBO

13 December: To shut down or not to shut down (the government). That’s a question that should not even be asked. DDT is playing with fire as usual. Pelosi is making a fool of him calling the Whitehouse an “evidence Free Zone” erecting a glorified picket fence instead of a wall. The evidence of Russian collusion keeps getting stronger as Mueller and others close in. I still would prefer him to get soundly trounced in an election so as to get rid of both DDT and Pence at the same time. Here’s hoping in 2020. I have to quit for today. I’m tired. Remember to vote. TBO in 2020.

12 December: I actually feel sorry for the dumb bunny – Michael Cohen heads to prison for up to 3 years. Of course, he deserves it. The reason I feel a bit sorry for him is that the real crook is sitting pretty in the Whitehouse mouthing off as usual. MC would have been a petty crook without DDT, but DDT elevated his ambitions, and he got caught with his pants down. Or, rather he got caught with DDT’s pants down. I did not remember that the Democrats actually offered the full amount for DDT’s wall, if he protected the “dreamers” (the high-achieving kids brought to the US while very young). The fool turned it down. Theresa May…stubborn lady…facing disaster if she brings off Brexit and a bigger disaster if she fails. Simple solution is to cancel Brexit, save the nation, and retire. History will view you as a heroine instead of a bozo. Yes, your read that right. There are more payoffs made to protect the election for DDT. Now the National Enquirer, that bastion of truth and modesty, has admitted to Mueller that indeed they made a payoff to influence the election and now will cooperate. How does DDT look in black and white horizontal stripes, or, perhaps, in a trendy orange jumpsuit? Prepare to vote in 2020 and throw the crook out.

11 December: I heard that! What a shouting match. Trump, Schumer, and Pelosi were in the same room. The meeting ended with DDT saying the He would be proud to shut the government down on Friday. Here we go again playing chicken. Let’s see who pulls off the road first. DAHT (aka DDT) wants that wall so badly he’s willing to do anything. But underneath it all he’s a coward with a 4F military deferment (bad feet, RIGHT!). According to DDT, they are going to try to pass criminal justice reform. Miracle. Huawei exec has been released on bail in Canada. Let’s see how this plays out. The people that support DDT are starting to worry about Mueller. Perhaps the rats will desert the sinking DDT. Enough for today. Listen to the replay of the Whitehouse recording of Schumer laying into DDT. What fun.

10 December: The wheels of justice grind slowly – so goes the old phrase, but theses wheels are not grinding fine. Based on the indictments, there are big lumps of dirty deeds coming to light. Perhaps the justice department will not indict a sitting president, but they will go after him later. I’m with Comey. Voters need to wake up and hold DDT accountable in 2020 and vote him out by a landslide. Nothing to do with DDT for a change, but the justice department needs to tread carefully in the developing Huawei case. They need to prove the allegations of fraud on the part of Huawei and the involvement of the CFO, Meng Wanzhou. This could mess up China trade as badly as DDT has messed it up if they proceed without really good evidence. There’s a lot going on here. There’s everything from trading with Iran under false pretenses to cyber theft. Hey, isn’t it nice to have something going on that does not have DDT’s dirty fingerprints all over it. Macron has given a lot of ground to the French protesters. Hopefully, this will calm things down. All in all, it was a relatively calm day. Perhaps tomorrow will be better.

9 December: Finally there is one intelligent person in the Whitehouse, Nick Ayers, Pence’s aide, has refused to take the position of DDT’s chief of staff. Anyone with intellectual capability and perhaps integrity should put themselves in the orbit of peril close to DDT. Working for that man is seriously bad for your mental health. Finally, the ax is starting to fall and people are suggesting that DDT may face impeachment and possibly jail time for criminal activity after he leaves the presidency. And, then there is the almost daily tweetstorm. This time is largely about the self-righteous Mr. Comey’s (former head of the FBI) testimony to Congress. “All lies”, DDT shouts in his tweetstorm. This is hardly the case even though Comey refuses to take any responsibility for his screw-up in the way he handled the Clinton email investigation just before the election. The FBI and Justice department has rules for handling such political stuff, but as Comey thinks, those rules are for little people, not for him (who has an inside track on justice and the American way). That doesn’t let DDT off the hook. Comey’s testimony is damning as is that from Flynn, Cohen, and all the other DDT henchmen. Right now Mueller rules the roost with slowly leaking indictments. If all else fails, vote the bum out in 2020.

8 December: Fare thee well John Kelly, we barely knew ye. You have been summarily thrown out oof the PRESENCE. Welcome back to the world of mere mortals, welcome to the world of slow thoughts of what is and what might be. Feel the wind blowing in your hair (or what is left of it). It’s the wind of freedom from idiocy. There is help for PTSD (in your case post traumatic stupid disorder) to stop the shakes every time you see a tweet. Try to remember, they are not your responsibility. You served the country without reserve. At least you did not do a public Tillerson and call DDT a blooming moron. Headline from the HuffPost “Republicans Around The Country Are Working To Declare Democrats Unconstitutional” as in Wisconsin, Michigan and North Carolina using the spending rights given to them by the Supreme Court’s Citizen’s United decision. The destruction of democracy in the US is well underway. Only the citizen voters can put a stop to this outrage. Idiot (DDT) has just spat on the Paris Climate Accords again by lying about people clamoring for him to free themselves from the taxes needed to achieve carbon limits. Poor fools, and here I mean US fools mostly. Macron made a tactical mistake of increasing the gas tax at the same time as he reduced the French “Wealth Tax” to increase investment in France. It’s bad timing for sure. Now the Yellow Jackets are swarming in Europe. Stopping climate change before disaster is becoming bloody hopeless. Vote in 2020 and throw the Bum and Bums out.

7 December: Michael Cohen sold his soul to the devil (DDT) for only 4 million dollars. Of course, he had some side deals that made a bit more. Now he qualifies for 2 to 4 years of free housing and meals. What a deal, and he get to meet some new friends, people who will understand how he got to where he will be. MC was a fool for not cooperating completely with Mueller. Now he gets to watch free cable tv and be a jailhouse lawyer. The ever confident confidence man (Tariff Man) says he’s totally in the clear now that MC is about to be sentenced for not being completely cooperative. Good luck DDT. Perhaps you will not go down, for now, but your family is going down. Get your Pardon pen ready. You will only get one chance to use it before all hell breaks loose. I sure hope that the US going after the Huawei executive is on firm ground. I would hate to see anyone’s life made into hell based on prejudice. It’s like waiting for Godot, this waiting for Mueller. In the end Godot never shows up, just a huge amount of clever words expended on a null philosophy. Mueller probably will show, better late than never, and with just gotcha' as a philosophy.

6 December: Fraud, I say, Fraud, right there in N. Carolina, my friends. And those reprehensible Reps played us for fools. Not going to happen. Best outcome is a rerun, but they ought to ban the Republican candidate from running again, since he was an active part of the fraud. Nothing much else happened, no new wars, no exit from Brexit, no French gas tax, and no power for the new Wisconsin governor. A day of “no”. Of course, there’s no rest for DDT. He’s busy screwing up the planet by rolling back environmental protections. More coal, more CO2, he’s proving that there is no effect of human activity by doing it himself. What an idiot. He’s the biggest idiot we’ve ever had as President (is bigger better? - the eternal question facing mankind). In 2020, throw the bum out of the Whitehouse and into the jailhouse.

5 December: Today was GHWB’s funeral. DDT was present, but silent. Even though he has tried to use Christian credentials for his presidency in the 2016 election, he clearly backed off that idea at the funeral service. Personally he can believe of not believe whatever he wants, but his hypocrisy is overwhelming. Sadder than a funeral is the raw killing of democracy in Wisconsin by the Republican state legislature. This is a shameful exercise in disenfranchising the voters in Wisconsin. Hopefully, there will be a penalty to pay. Of course, it is not just Wisconsin, but other Republican dominated states are doing the same. It’s the Republicans as a criminal enterprise, a new type of MOB. The crown prince plot keeps getting deeper to where even the Republican Senate is getting into the act on the right side of morality. Meanwhile DDT is silent, SHAME. Brace yourself for more stock market drops. It’s the lying DDT effect.

4 December: Oh boy. Couldn’t keep his mouth shut. The newly crowned self-declared Tariff Man single handedly sank the stock market 3%. It’s true, not just anyone could do that by themselves. It takes super powers. Go ahead. You try. See if it works. Just shout “I’m Tariff Man and am going to take you Down”. See nothing happened because you are an ordinary mortal and didn’t truly believe you could do it. Faith is everything. OK…Take 10 minutes and say over and over, “I can do it; I can do it; ….I can do it;. Now try again. See, nothing happened. You are just not stupid enough. Perhaps if you hit your head against a wall and get a really good concussion, your super powers will match DDT’s. Amazing, even Republicans are starting to believe that the Earth is not flat and the Saudi crown prince is a dangerous unguided missile. Now, it only DDT would believe in man’s role in climate change and the crown prince’s involvement with Kashoggi’s murder, I would publically proclaim that I believe in miracles and the tooth fairy. Go for it DDT. It’s costs nothing and contributes to public happiness and world peace. Our boy, Roger S, took the 5th. Says Roger, “I’m not tellin them nuttin. My papers are staying where the sun don’t shine, and you can’t have them. What do you mean, “might tend to incriminate”. They certainly would incriminate. There’s probably enough evidence against Roger S. from other people to give him a golden chance at free housing. Go Mueller – Let’s hear what you have to say.

3 December: Sigh. DDT has fudged again, lying and exaggerating the accomplishments of his trade deal with China. Even the official White House transcript differs strongly from his bombast. The great negotiator is more like the great sucker, both as President and in his own personal business deals. The Republicans are pushing a new cheat on the public. In states where they lost the governor’s office, the gerrymandered state legislatures are trying to remove the powers of the governors. This way they partially reverse election results by legislative fiat. It might stand now, but in two years they (Rep.) will have a disaster. This Republican party is more like a criminal enterprise than a part of a democratic form of government. They are truly bums.

2 December: Watched the 60 minutes description of George HW Bush's (Pres #41) life with comments by his son and friends. It reminds me of what a decent human being he was. It also reminded me that GHWB wound down the cold war in a decent way that prevented an irrational outbreak of war. A man with a bigger ego (remind you of someone) might have made a catastrophic mistake. And then there was his wife of 78 years, a significant force in her own right. An amazing couple. DDT seems to have negotiated some kind of temporary suspension of the 25% tariffs that were to go into effect immediately. Stock futures are up. We’ll see how it develops. It is looking like the Saudi Crown prince was deeply involved with the murder. This creates a problem for civilized countries. At the same time France is burning over an attempt to fund the conversion from a hydrocarbon economy to an electric one. Macron has not got the courage to tax the rich instead of hitting the ordinary person. Good luck Macron. All the other DDT junk is unfolding in the background. For once, the news was not about DDT and is outrageous promotion of himself with lies and vulgar criticism.

1 December: Out my respect for G H W Bush, I will refrain from talking about the idiot we have as President. The world leaders (-1) have agreed on trade and climate change, which is a good thig for bringing order and civility to our lives. Of course there is the rogue Putin, who is bent on causing trouble for the rest of the world to perpetuate his criminal regime. What a contrast with GHWB, a genuine war hero and definite gentleman. He was a man with strong healthy family values, and a desire for service to others. That he sought and achieved the Presidency was a life achievement, which he executed, not perfectly, but with honor.

30 November: George Bush (the elder) has died. From all I know, a decent man, a decent president, a man slightly out of touch with the people that elected him, losing after one term to a relatively charming (by comparison) Bill Clinton. Eventually, his son becomes a misfit president under the influence of people he appointed to high places (Cheny, Rumsfeld etc.) against the advice of his much wiser and more experienced father. Only late in his 2-term presidency does George (the younger) remove the people with an agenda and become the president that he could have been for eight years. We still live with the legacy of the Bush mistakes. Now we have to deal with bumble-head, the self-congratulating, self-evaluating, self-important perambulating hair-do. At least DDT’s ghost writer wrote a decent reaction to the death of President-41. The Russians are giving DDT what he deserves, a pointed rebuke about his dumb-shrewd action about not meeting Putin in Argentina, basically avoiding the political necessity of calling out Russia’s outrageous behavior in Ukraine. What does Putin have on DDT that makes him behave like a weak traitorous child? I knew we could count on Trudeau to let DDT have it in the face for his idiotic tariff game that is now causing disruption in both the US and Canada. DDT came out and claimed that the US is getting richer by levying the tariffs on China. Apparently the poor dummbkoph actually thinks that China pays those tarrifs. Instead the truth is that the US consumer pays those tariffs, effectively a tax on the poor and middle classes. The rich do not really care. After all, what does an extra 1000 mean for a car when you have millions. 2020 is still 2 years off, but one can think ahead about a sound drubbing for DDT.

29 November: Shock, just shock to find out that DDT’s original lawyer was not as honest as the driven snow is pure. Of course, in New York City, the snow always has considerable dirt mixed in, so “pure as the drive snow” has different meaning to DDT than to most other people Nonetheless, DDT is attacking his former attack dog as a liar and cheat. It used to be that Cohen was his liar and cheat, but that is different. I am surprised, a Republican senator, Tim Scott, took one for the country and blocked the nomination of highly prejudiced judge – Go Scott. AND CNN fired an anti-Semitic reporter. Justice. DDT backed out of the meeting with Putin. For once it was an astute move. He would have had to confront Putin about Ukraine that might have had consequences for DDT himself. Avoiding the meeting is a smart move. Still waiting for the shoes to drop PLOP PLOP.

28 November: Another quiet day in the world. Senate kicks DDT in his teeth rebuking him for the US role in the Yemen war. Good for them. It’s time Saudi Arabia got a little push back, OK…Pelosi is nominated for speaker, but will need Republican help or more arm twisting to get a dozen more Dems. Interesting. Guess what. Russia is accusing Ukraine of forcing Russia to shoot at Ukrainian ship ans sieze them. It would be funny if it were not so dangerous. Manafort may get a pardon after all based onj mumblings by DDT. Who knows how this will turn out? In the meantime, Roger Stone has been caught in more lies. Mueller must be getting close to the end. Just for fun, DDT has publically shared faked pictures of Obama and the Clintons behind bars after being arrested for treason. DAHT has outdone himself. Oh Good. Ivanka has pardoned herself for using a private email server. She says the rules do not apply to her. Wow, she must have super powers. With a list like this, who needs comment?

27 November: Paul Manafort is stupid toast. According to the Brits, Manafort met with Assange several times and lied about it. I hope he enjoys the free housing and food for the rest of hislife. It’s a fitting end for a slime ball. I’m waiting for the Mississippi results. It’s a long shot for the Dems, but one can hope. We’ll know tomorrow. It doesn’t matter a lot either way, except a Dem win would narrow the Republican majority in the Senate. Our idiot-in-chief keeps threatening General Motors for a pure business decision. Perhaps he will offer to subsidize GM to keep the plants open. Why not? What’s a few billion to DDT? Once again, we are in an in between day, since Congress is still in recess. Nothing much is happening, just a lot of hot air. The biggest thing coming up is the US response (or non-response) to the Ukraine affair and the negotiations with the Chinese over tariffs. Wait and see.

26 November: Manafort’s going down. Lied to Mueller, at least according to Mueller. We’ll see how this plays out in front of a judge at sentencing. Happy news. The Mars landing was successful. This is the 2nd time that NASA has pulled off that high tech trick. Russia is starting a new war with Urkraine while DDT just sits on his thumbs – not a peep out of that jerk. I do not expect him to start conflict with Russia, but at least there should be some response – perhaps just a brave Tsk Tsk. Then, of course, there’s the southern border fracas. Tear gas and lies. DDT has got a major problem on his hands and I suspect he has not a clue on how to handle it. Threaten Mexico. That always works. Shut down the border to trade. Great idea. The last one should cause chaos in the US economy. One thing is for certain, you can always count on DDT. Well, perhaps on the fingers of one small hand. Small hand…small brain.

25 November: Another relatively quiet day. A little riot at the border. Mueller closing in on DDT. A little lying about an agreement with Mexico. DDT becoming a lot more erratic since losing the midterms. To quote the Guardian, “failure looms as Democrats load the subpoena cannon”. I’d hold my breath, but I want to be here when the other shoe falls. 

24 November: From the latest news, if you want to watch ‘em hang them high, then the world will set you dry. It looks like Mississippi Senator Hyde-Smith is toast. The sad thing is that she is no worse than DDT, and he gets to keep his job. Where is the justice that we have to sit around to 2020 to take a presidential dump? There is not too much to write about today. It’s unnaturally quiet. It must be the rain causing DDT to not want to get his hair wet. WAIT, DDT is in dry sunny Florida pouting after he got skewered for his awful phone call to the troops. DDT is after the transgendered people in the military again. SAD. If he wants to pick on misfits, please look in the mirror. RM is getting close. Watch out DDT. Mueller is going to set your empire on fire. Mexico has agreed to keep the invading Central American army at bay for a while until the US gets its act together. Today published investigative reporting found that a lot of the families (adults accompanied by kids) are not real families, but a ploy to get to the US border more cheaply. Bottom line, with or without DDT, this is a mess. Finally, good news happened. Russia is going to check to see if the US moon landings really occurred. Way to go Russia. Perhaps Putin and DDT could go together to check the fake news from the 1960’s and 70’s. The world would be a better place.

23 November: Thanksgiving is past and my fussing starts again (it never stopped). Fortunately the big DAHT (aka DDT) provides plenty of daily gruel.  Stupid is threatening a government shutdown, again. Today, there was a government report warning of the consequences of climate change, to which DDT responded, What do they know. The scientists just do such reports to earn more money. Yup. That’s me. I’m earning the big bucks for writing reports that go against DDT’s extraordinary insights into climate change, quantum mechanics, and electromagnetic launching of airplanes. We are lucky to have such a genius. He’s the best ever. Sigh! Goody. New York State has denied DDT’s request for him not to be able to be sued by a state government. Go get him. Now DDT is going after people with different sexual orientation than his – it’s called the small hands policy. Mueller is spiraling in on DDT. Go Mueller. Oh, you think I am biased by reading my writing. Well, this time you are right. I am biased against flat earther’s, climate change deniers, economic morons, racist behavior, and violence. Probably, DDT does not meet all of these criteria, He just might believe the earth is a near-sphere, I'm just saying.

22 November: Today is Thanksgiving. I have much to be thankful for, but not from this DDT administration. DDT may have pardoned a turkey (the kind with feathers), but I will not pardon our turkey in chief for the utter mismanagement and perversion of our government. I don’t want him roasted and served, except perhaps with warrants for arrest for gross misconduct and financial improprieties. However, that is the province of our various justice departments in states and the federal government, and ultimately the court system. Today I will not go into sordid details of the latest insults to our intelligence, other than to agree with recent climate scientists’ evaluation of DDT as a dangerous clown. So, on with family get togethers to give thanks for living in a wealthy country still benefiting from the wisdom of previous presidents and the industry of its citizens. I may add to this later today, if something weird happens, or we suffer the slings of outrageous tweets. Be quiet today oh great turkey, gobble your burgers and fries, and leave the rest of us alone. This evening, I have to honor our president for extreme valor for placing a phone call from his country club in Florida to combat zones to talk to our troops. What courage!. The phone line could have been hacked by a 400 pound man sitting on his bed, who knows. In the past he did visit Brooklyn NY, DDT said, which is really dangerous.

21 November: Who would have guessed? Chief Justice Roberts chastised DDT for his remarks about Obama judges foiling his attempts to circumvent the law. Go Roberts. Of course, DDT could not keep his mouth shut. Had to attack back. DDT still claims that the crown prince is not guilty, since the CIA does not have direct evidence. Gotta sell that mythological 110 billion dollars’ worth of weapons (really 64 billion), but then who’s counting. Certainly not DDT on those little hands. Good old Facebook. Finally admitted the obvious that they followed the DDT rule. When criticized, attack back with scurrilous lies that are racist or anti-Semitic . Apparently, Facebook claimed the George Soros worked with the Nazis. Must have been Hitler’s right hand man. Now Facebook has apologized and said they really didn’t mean it. People should quit Facebook until Z resigns (sorry I didn’t really mean that). Poor Papadopoulos. He’s the first schnook to plead guilty in the Mueller investigation, a very small wheel in a big machine. He was stupid enough to brag about his teeny tiny role to an Australian diplomat, who then informed the FBI. Now he’s trying to delay going briefly to jail. Good luck buddy. You are just a DDT fall guy. Uh oh. Spain may vote down the Brexit deal if the Brits don’t give them Gibraltar. Revote the Brexit plan TM. Quit looking out for your own skin. Think country first. Don’t be a DDT.

20 November: DDT says it’s alright to kill someone, if you benefit financially or personally from the dastardly deed. Of course, we are referring to MBS, a “staunch” ally to the US, except when he isn’t. This is a country that is responsible for a lot of the extremism in religion over the years by exporting fundamentalist religious schools all over the world. Personally, I find any kind of extremism repulsive and dangerous. DDT claims he is being prudent. Perhaps. Ivanka didn’t know the rules, she says. That’s to patently BS as to strain the credulity of anyone with a memory and brain. Where was she during the DAHT campaign? Where was she during the shouted “lock her up” . Well, perhaps we should. Not for her email faux pas, but for the temerity of telling us that she’s so stupid that she can’t tie her own shoelaces without reading a memo. Of course we also have garbage mouth DDT purposely mispronouncing and writing Adam Schiff’s name. But then DDT delivers exactly what we have come to expect, garbage in and s*** out.

19 November: Lock HER up! Ivanka Trump used a private email account for government business. Oh No! Hundreds of times. She should self-deport to the nearest prison. Sad to say, dear old Nancy is having a rough time with the newcomers in the House. The young Turks seem to want to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Pelosi is extremely effective as a manager of the Democrats in the house and in elections. I know she serves as a foil for republicans, but only because she’s so effective. The sound of her voice can make the hair on the back of your neck standup, but not because of the content of her speech. We do need new leadership, but only from those who prove they can lead, not just throw political grenades. I don't hear DDT bragging about the wonderful stock market any more. Perhaps he'll do a deal with China and get things rolling again.

18 November: Shut or not to Shut, that is the question. Is DDT is brave enough to sling arrows at the budget bill. We’ll find out. Stay tuned. Perhaps, the feds can get an unexpected vacation for a few days or weeks. Just in time for Christmas holidays. I suspect that he doesn’t have the guts. Whoever does shut down the government will suffer politically. DDT has sworn to the fact that he has answered written questions that he wrote himself – Right! We’ll find out this week. Then there is the new AG who has said he will not interfere. Senator Flake is now claiming he will not vote for any further judges if there is no legislation protecting Mueller. The wheels keep turning, and the wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind ever so fine.

17 November: Another day of almost nothing. Wonderful. DDT makes nice with Florida’s Gillum and with Georgia’s Stacey Abrams, showering compliments on them after vilifying them on previous days. What’s going on here? Last week he called her a thief, and this week an outstanding politician. Is DDT trying to suck up to Democrats so as to lessen the impending doom of House investigations? It won’t work, buddy. I’ll give DDT credit. He actually went and visited the fire devastated region of California and got a little smoke in his Coif. That beats rain on any day. As before, quiet is good and more is better. Of course, we have the drama unfolding in Britain. Who says idiocy is confined to the US?  Brits have Theresa Stubborn May.  Hold another vote. Make country before your job.

16 November: DDT is in the blame game. His administration cut forest service funding and then complained that California didn’t do forest management properly. What a jerk. See what a slow day it was. DDT is really perturbed by the upcoming Mueller report and all the new indictments. Other than a few tweets, he’s been really quiet. I suspect that is a good thing. I prefer quiet to all the bleating and lying. Now the CIA is blaming the crown prince for Jamal K killing. Hmmm, let’s see what DDT does about that one. I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, middle east stability is quite desirable, on the other hand, if the crown prince is really directly involved, he should be removed by the Saudis. On my third hand, it’s not really clear that it matters to stability whether he’s in charge or not. This is the old, enemy of my enemy (Iran) is my friend. Not a good way to run the world.

15 November: Mueller 100, DDT 0. Gates just bit the dust by becoming another cooperator with Mueller telling tales of misdirection, misdemeanors, lies, and cheating. This is getting really close to DDT-DAHT. Digging deeper and deeper, I can’t wait to see the report if it gets released to the public. The Florida Senate race is still alive with a hand recount underway. Hopefully, Rick Scott (R) will wind up in a hole. A real and pressing question is what the unconfirmed Attorney General will do with the Mueller probe. Rumor says he will behave himself and leave Mueller alone. One can only hope. Today will be a short paragraph, since nothing good or bad has happened with DDT. But over the pond, Theresa May is having a few minor Brexit problems that are every bit as interesting as DDT’s shenanigans. The deal offered by the EU seems bad to me. Britain gets all the rules and regulations and none of the ability to influence the rules. Lovely (translation: stupid). Democratic House please releases those DDT (translation: really stupid) income tax returns.

14 November: Holy cow! DDT (aka DAHT) has finally figured out why Republicans lose. According to DDT, not only are illegal people voting, but they vote multiple times by going back to their cars and changing disguises. It’s amazing how smart DDT must be to have figured that out. WOW. Bloody idiot. It never occurs to him that his personality is a big cause of Republicans losing. His performance in France was embarrassing, avoiding the rain, berating Theresa May, belittling Macron about the possibility of a European army. Doesn’t he realize that it ihis unreliable behavior that precipitates Europe to think that the US may not be a reliable partner. We have got to get rid of that jerk in 2020. People do notice erratic behavior on the part of a person who is supposed to bring stability to the nation, not chaos.

13 November: Finally I understand DDT not being at the WW1 ceremony. The dog ate his hair. That’s fake news. No, DDT is blaming the secret service for not being willing to risk his life flying a helicopter in bad weather. Of course, DDT could have gone by that recent invention, the automobile, driven by those same Secret Service agents. Whew…I’m glad we know now who’s at fault. "President @realDonaldTrump a no-show because of raindrops?” tweeted former Secretary of State John F. Kerry, a Navy veteran. “Those veterans the president didn’t bother to honor fought in the rain, in the mud, in the snow - & many died in trenches for the cause of freedom. Rain didn’t stop them & it shouldn’t have stopped an American president.” after retruning to the US, DDT was so low energy that he couldn't even make the 2-mile trip to Arlington National Cemetery. SAD! Go Mueller” He plans to issue indictments this week. Among the honorees are Stone, and the far-right commentator Jerome Corsi. Good luck fellas. Of course, I do not really mean good luck for you bozos, but good luck for the US. Thanks to a judge, Georgia’s gubernatorial race ballots will actually be counted. Way to go judge.. One hopes that the Republican, Brian Kemp, loses following his attempt as Georgia secretary of state to use his office to manipulate voting rights. See, the funhouse continues to operate. The clown car may be small, but more and more clowns keep piling out. When will it stop? I hope you noticed that DDT (aka DAHT) is pretty quiet. Inside rumors have it that DDT is afraid of Mueller and the strong possibilities of legitimate investigations by the House committees. He may not have conscious, but he does know fear. Small hands, small brain. He needs to consider early retirement.

12 November: While I was waiting for DDT’s hair to dry, nothing much was coming from him. Hair spray was applied generously to provide a waterfroof helmet. Radio silence was the order of the day, except for squeals of fraud in the legally mandated Florida vote recount. According to DDT, there was massive illegal voters and altering of ballots. Of course the great mastermind does not need proof of this, just his gut reaction (indigestion perhaps). Naturally, the current governor of Florida (Rick Scott) is screaming fraud as his majority shrinks in his race for the senate seat. DDT is now urging Florida to ignore the military vote. Just because our soldiers are risking life and limb for this country, they should not be allowed to vote unless their vote is for DDT or his minions. Fair is fair. Curious, ballot votes from the DDT stronghold apparently were submitted by email, which is against Florida law. In a few days, the “fun” may begin, if the recount goes against DDT. Gotta love them Republicans. Meanwhile the newly elected Democrat-led House (starts January 20) is gearing up for electing a new Speaker and for starting investigations of DDT's swamp.

11 November: DDT finally got his hair dry enough to attend some of the WW1 ceremonies. Got to give him credit. He protected his bald spot. What an embarrassment for the US. So many dead, but (for DDT) who cares. Better to stay dry than ride in a car for 50 miles. Everyone else made it just fine. Everything else is normal. The Republicans are bleating about the vote recounts in Florida and Georgia. Nothing is new there. The recount could go their way, but in the meantime scream fraud so that they can try to invalidate the count if goes to the Democrats. I’m so tired of writing about the idiocy of DAHT (aka DDT). So much is in the news now about the justice department and the state of Mueller’s investigation. Here’s hoping he has the fear of consequence (even though coward Lindsey Graham backed off his “hell” statement) of interfering in the probe.  2020 is just 2 years away.

10 November: I took the day off to attend to some personal necessities. It's a good thing I did, since nothing really new happened. DAHT lived up to his new name in France. The new anointed Attorney General is being challenged (not vetted or confirmed by the Senate). So, it's just the usual garbage.

9 November: Th election is still not over. The fun continues. Republicans are protesting the counting of votes that came in on the day of the election. This is a process that always happens. With the margins of victory so tight, and the differences decreasing, an automatic recount is inevitable. Screaming against the law in Florida and Georgia is useless, except for political grandstanding. So, keep at it guys until we know for sure who really won, Republican or Democrat. Ah yes, what a surprise. It now appears that DDT (aka DAHT) totally arranged the payoffs to two women during the campaign in violation of campaign finance laws. DDT says so what, it’s just a small thing. On to the next shiny object. What will happen to Mueller’s probe now that he’s appointed a sycophant to head the justice department? Isn’t it fun to see how many clowns can get out of the tiny clown car? They just keep coming along with over 4000 documented DDT lies. Oh, yes, then we have the rule changes in the immigration fiasco – another clown pokes it head out.

8 November: The “fun” has started. Sessions is gone and the new troll Matthew Whitaker takes his place. DDT (aka DAHT) is cracking down on the hordes in the caravan that are threatening the US. Those vicious woman and children, along with some young men, are streaming towards the US at 20 to 30 miles per day, Scary. Hopefully, they will get the message and pile up at the legal entry points. We’ll just have to wait and see what the idiot in chief has up his small handed sleeves. I'm sort of tired writing about DDT and congress, speculating about Mueller, and watchin the house committees not doing their job.  The real excitement will come after January 20.  In the meantime, keep your knickers on and don't let them twist.

7 November: The results are in. DDT loses enough so that he should be nervous. Of course, he responded by threatening house democrats to use the justice department to investigate them. If he does, this is grounds for impeachment and abuse of power. His first action was to fire Jeff Sessions (attorney general) so that his man could limit Mueller’s investigation. What’s new here. Nothing much, just a crook acting crooked. What did you expect? We have two more years of Donald AH Trump (aka DDT). I hope the Democrats do proper investigations, not political ones. Even proper ones will reveal a lot of DDT financial machinations. The real problem is that we have 2 more years of packing the courts.

6 November:  We are at the crucial day, so VOTE.  I know many of you have already voted, and that's good, really good, but for the rest of you, there's no excuse not to get rid of the most corrupt biased government we have had in my lifetime. The Republicans are in favor of taking your medical care, polluting the environment, and making the rich richer and most of your poorer. You think a tiny uptick in the economy is due to DDT because fo the tax cut - well he does get credit for the tiny uptick, but you could get hit hard if you have medical expenses. So, TRBO.

5 November: The day before the final poll and DDT (middle initials AH: give him a roll and wipe him out) is trying to intimidate voters by threatening them with law enforcement if they are perceived to be voting fraudulently. Not actually voting fraud, just perceived. Nice guy, he’s a fraud of a president, at least that’s the way I perceive him. So, just ignore the nattering of his small mind and get out and vote. TRBO.

4 November: Ok guys. You have two more days to make a moral decision. The Republicans are pathetic, immoral, and crooked. And, even the ones that see the crookedness have been cowed (sorry cows) into submission by too much money in the political races. Conform or someone will run against you in the primaries far to your right. Your job will be over. It’s Political blackmail. I was just watching slimy Ted Cruz and Beto in Texas. What a difference between a slimeball and a regular honest human being. The slimeball is PAC finded, and Beto is funded by the people in a very low budget campaign. It’s that way in all the elections over the entire country. So Vote on Tuesday 6 November. Doggone it, get out and VOTE and TRBO.

3 November:  I'm tired. Think for yourself. Vote Vote Vote and TRBO

2 November: Four more days. Hopefully, we will get a result that reigns in the crooked DDT party. Best would be for the DDT party to lose both house and senate, but even losing either one will work wonders. I still would like the Democrats to work with Republicans if it is at all possible, but I would also like the House to perform its oversight task honestly instead of the crooked way Nunes ran the committee. A good thing happened. A judge in Georgia is forcing the state to permit people to vote wjo registered but where there are minor discrepancies between the registration papers and state records. The discrepancy rule was put in to disenfranchise low income people (mostly blacks). DDT is going after Iran with sanctions, but making noise that he wants to ease the tariff war with China. Really? The invasion caravans are still a couple of weeks out and dwindling in numbers. Estimates are that 10 times that amount attempt to cross the border every week. The caravan is a trickle. Army, please don’t shoot. Well, as I said above, 4 more days to go, so get out and VOTE and TRBO.

1 November: I cannot believe that idiot DDT. He’s essentially ordering the army to shoot people, if they throw rocks at the border. First, there is no indication that anyone will turn violent, second, ordering our army to fire on civilians is beyond immoral, it is inhuman. Why am I surprised about anything to do with DDT. He makes me sick with anxiety about the future of this country. Of course, there is another side to this. DDT is proposing stuff (revoking birthright) that he knows will never happen, just to fire up his base voters. This is the DOG WHISTLE president. The trouble is, that some of the things DDT is saying are truly dangerous. Wake up people, defend your democracy. Then, the Republicans are all suddenly claiming to be for medical care, pre-existing conditions, when they spent 4 years trying to destroy the Affordable Care Act that Obama initiated. What hypocrisy. The last thing that has come so strongly to the surface is the ”white supremacy” issue that DDT is pushing openly. The most sickening example is Steve King (not the writer, please, but the politician in Congress from Iowa) who is overtly racist. DDT has unleashed the worst in the mob. Get out and VOTE, all you moderates and independents, and TRBO.

31 October: Happy Halloween. It’s scary with the Ghoul in Chief, DDT, out there haunting the election scene. Personally, I cannot stand the small-minded ignorant man who spends his time trying to occupy the news by being both president and purposely stupid to energize his equally dumb biased base. How embarrassing to have to put up with DDT. The beginning of the end for DDT will be to get Democrats in the House and Senate. Get those buzzards out of office (sorry buzzards), clean up the garbage and drain the new big swamp. Bottom line. Get out and VOTE and TRBO.

30 October: DDT is out campaigning as if his life depended on it. Well, this time he’s right. If the Dems win, he’s toast, probably burned toast. Couldn’t happen to a better guy. DDT is doubling down on his ability to get around the 14th amendment to the constitution just by imperial pronouncement. He’s so sad so dumb. At least the people of Pittsburgh are refusing to join him in his phony attempt to console for the mass shooting. Nothing much else is new. DDT is sending a huge army contingent to seal our borders, plus a big order for tents. Good luck buddy (not my buddy). Halloween ‘s coming as is November 6. VOTE and TRBO.

29 October: Lovely. DDT does not know that the US constitution give birthright citizenship. Of course, he doesn’t care. This is a cynical and useless move to issue an executive order that satisfies his base of voters and then gets struck down by the courts. He wins either way politically and loses by inflaming anyone with more than an ounce of intelligence. DDT still plans to visit Pittsburgh, apparently without renouncing and denouncing the white nationalists he uses for political purposes. What a president. I hope he gets flamingly rejected in Pittsburgh. He needs rejection and humiliation. What a jerk. Now he’s claiming that Democrats will ruin the economy if elected. What he means is that he wants more candy to give people in the form of another deficit increasing tax cut that will stimulate the economy, but will carry a steep price in the near future. November 6 is a week off. Vote and TRBO

28 October: Poor DDT. He’s no longer the center of attention. The shooting and bombing have grabbed center stage and disrupted his divisive message. DDT said nice words at the start, but then veered off message as is true so often. Right after the shooting he went after one of the bomb recipients treating him as a crazy person. Personally, I am appalled at the shooting. The increasing amount of antisemitism is really worrying for the nation. First, its blacks, Hispanics, and Jewish people, next it’s you. Say the “wrong” thing and you could be in jail. Don’t believe it? Just look around you. Check Brazil if you want to see the possibilities. As usual, get out and vote, and TRBO.

27 October: There is an excellent short essay by Dan Rather published online. I will quote one paragraph and then suggest you read the rest yourself.

“I do not think President Trump is redeemable on this score. His actions long before becoming president suggest a profound level of personal animosity to the diversity of our nation. And now, drunk on power and exalting in the amen choruses assembling at his hate-filled rallies, his debasement of the norms of the office he holds and his misplaced sense of victimhood has metastasized across a political movement that has become increasingly indistinguishable from the political party he leads.”

There is still time to place limits on the dog, put a shock collar on DDT and keep in inside the fence that constitutes decency and decorum in our democracy. Let him fume and tweet, but limit his actions with a strong resistant congress. Vote early or vote on election day, but VOTE and TRBO

26 October: The agitator-racist in-chief DDT has come out for civility in politics even as he excoriates the press. Nice guy, but don’t turn your back. At least they have caught the bomber and put people out of danger while also giving the lie to all those conspiracy theories. The bomber was a died in the wool DDT backer – a real nut job who was living a hopeless life in his own van. He needed help, but ws too rapped up in the DDT miasma. The political races, according to polls, are getting closer. Come on you guys, get off your rears and get out and vote. DDT’s stock market is no longer there for his bragging rights Today brought the market down below the start of the year. How LOW can it go. Stay tuned!. Vote on November 6 and TRBO…say it six times fast TRBO TRBO TRBO TRBO TRBO TRBO – NOW VOTE

25 October: Reap the whirlwind. The idiot now complains about the violence he has unleashed. DDT says, if everyone was loyal (to him), there wouldn’t be this violence. He should own the fact that he has systematically insulted and threatened the potential victims of the pipe bomb attacks. It can’t be too soon for that ignorant buffoon to be out of office. He’s sending 800 troops to the border. It’s ridiculous to send anyone or to send too few. Remember to vote. I did this afternoon, and I sure did not vote for Republicans. So, now it’s your turn. Get out and vote and TRBO

24 October: Sigh. DDT is calling for civility in public discourse in the wake of the attempted bombings. But, then he is blaming the press for the bombings. What a BS artist is DDT. He, foremost among others, is the bombastic purveyor of insults and prejudice against anyone that disagrees or competes with him. DDT is by far the worst President in US history with the possible exception of Andrew Jackson – and even there it is not clear yet. It is possible that DDT will do things that pale compared to Jackson’s “Trail of Tears”. The joke that I started with when DDT was elected was that I would consider his regime a success if he FAILED to kill a 100 million people. So far, he has been a success, if I only use this black humor criterion. It’s a bad joke. Then we have the upcoming border war over the caravan of people slowly moving north, where DDT is planning to send the army to close the border. What is he planning to do with the army, shoot people? Crazy person. I know it’s just political posturing to scare people. Then the idiot is using an unsecure phone for conversations with friends. Nice. China and others are listening. Who knows, it might be a diabolical plot to confuse the listeners, since DDT is largely incoherent and inconsistent. Remember Vote on November 6 and TRBO.

23 October: Our vice President Pence says that there are certain things that are inconceivable to him. First that DDT should remain president instead of being replaced by a real person, namely Pence himself, and that there are people of middle eastern descent in the caravan. He’s right, there could be some Jewish people, or even, God forbid, some old time immigrants from the Ottoman Empire. Could be, I’m just saying. You do know that DDT is the son of a German immigrant, either his father or grandfather, who came to the US for purely economic reasons. Perhaps, he should be sent back. Our chief economic advisor to DDT says the sky is falling (stocks) because of the Democrats who don't want another deficit busting tax cut. WOW! Come on, Democrats, energize (and I am not referring to Star trek) and get out and vote. If you do not, you deserve exactly what you are going to get, a dictatorship from the right. You think the first two years were a problem, the second two will be much worse, if Democrats do not take control of the House and Senate. You want to see medical care decimated, stay home and do nothing (SHDN), you want gender discrimination to increase SHDN, you want a 2008 type crash because of tariffs and budget cuts SHDN, you want law abiding families to be split up SHDN, you want two more years of slimy sneaky Mitch the B McConnel SHDN, you want an unneeded extra tax cut to accelerate the deficit, SHDN, you want Social Security and Medicare slashed SHDN, and perhaps you want unlimited missiles and nuclear weapons, then by all means, STAY HOME AND DO NOTHING. In the meantime for the rest of us that are mentally still aware and thinking, Get Out and Vote. TRBO. It's time to decrease the power of that poopin tweetin horse's ass we have for President. Everything he touches turns to S, oops, I meant Brass.

22 October: I’ve got my waders on today to get above the BS that “lyin” DDT is spreading around his pasture to his loyal goats (no offense real goats). Fotrunatley, Obama is also trying to suggest that we restore sanity to politics. Good luck preaching sanity against a huckster like DDT. But, we have the caravan approaching our southern borders, which inflames DDT to the point of insanity. His twitter account is on fire. Of course, helping to reform the Central American governments and create economic opportunity at home is beyond anything DDT might think of as president. So, Vote on November 6 and TRBO.

21 October: A little over 2 weeks to go (less if you vote early) until November 6, so all of you people who believe you are having your freedom ripped from you, get out there and vote, TRBO (Throw the Republican Bums OUT). It’s time to take back the country and stop DDT. I’m just reading about DDT. Keep your knickers on tight, DDT is redefining gender. There’s no telling what you will become when he is done. The definition is going to be narrowed. No more transgender, no more homosexuals, no more aggressive non-DDT worshipping females (males too). What, you think you have civil rights, Well, think again. There probably will be a test to see if you qualify for a gender. I’m not sure what happens to people who do not qualify. Perhaps if your ugly (DDT is a good example) your genderhood will be revoked. Of course, while you are President you can’t be revoked. If revoked, can you vote? That’s a thought to think about. Of course the migrant caravan is growing and it’s all DDT’s fault. Central America needs help, not threats. It’s time to clean up our own backyard with real help for our neighbors. And, then there’s the nuclear arms deal that DDT wants to scrap – what a fool we have. So, at usual, get out and vote and TRBO.

20 October: Kashoggi is accomplishing more in his unwarranted horrible death than would be possible by just writing. I can’t wait for the final Saudi fiction of “who dunnit”. Of course, it was out of control lower people in and out of government. No one who really controlled the murder will take responsibility.  Good old horse’s ass DDT is blaming the Democrats for the out of control immigration problem. To do what DDT wants would be a humanitarian nightmare. The problem is part hopeless economies and part uncontrolled gang crime. Taking steps to alleviate at least one of these would do more to stem the tide than DDT’s temper tantrums. Somebody, please change his diaper and stop the screaming. Now there’s another brilliant move afoot. DDT wants to pull out of nuclear arms deals that we have with Russia. Those agreements, while far from perfect, are better than unlimited building of missles and bombs. Please please vote in November and TBO

19 October: The hordes are coming. Raise the drawbridge. Another 4000 people in a caravan flooding the US, as if the more than 100,000 arriving outside of the caravan, some every day, were a negligible number. The huge influx must because of love of DDT. How else to explain the increase in immigrants after 2 years of DDT? There is a Cartoon in the Washington Post today (20th) showing DDT calling Stormy Daniels “Horseface” while DDT’s face is on the appropriate other end of the horse (under the tail for those directionally challenged). Yes a Horse’s Ass, and an orange horse’s ass at that. Well, now we know (Suadi's admitted as much) that Khashoggi was indeed killed in the Saudi embassy in Turkey. Officially, Khashoggi started a fist fight with an official (dissed his fiancé?) and died in the ensuing counterattack by 12 recently arrived Saudi’s. That so makes sense. In retaliation they cut off his fingers and caused other dismemberment while Khashoggi was still alive. Then they killed him as a mercy killing to alleviate the pain he was suffering. Sigh. Of course, I made up some of the details, but, then again, it’s just embroidery on the story that the Saudis made up (Can you fake a fake?). Poor Paul Mannafort, he is awaiting sentencing while appearing in a wheel chair looking gaunt. What happened? Took away his fancy meal card? Lost his appetite in anticipation of all that good free food he will receive. That arrogant pig deserves his just deserts (very low calorie). Perhaps the former Ukrainian president will send him some cake. Mueller keeps grinding on to prepare his secret report that probably will never be officially released, unless it leaks, or we elect Democrats to the House and Senate.I cannot remind you often enough. Turn out the vote, vote yourself, and TBO

18 October: Oh no..DDT might have to admit he made a mistake trusting Saudi Arabia and MBS (crown prince). The skies will fall, birds stop singing, temperatures will fall (oh yeah, that’s right winter is coming), and Mueller will find DDT as innocent as the driven snow and richer than Croesus. Ah bliss. Well, bliss does contain the key letters B and S. Put them together, and the truth appears. Meanwhile, DDT is jumping up and down because of the impending invasion from Guatemala. Call out the army, block our border, get the nukes ready. Of course, the slippery Mitch the B McConnell is threatening to cut support for the elderly and sick to balance the budget while still asking for further tax cuts. Republicans are desperate. They’re rolling out outright lies and slander to rouse their base to rebellion. Remember people, November 6 is nigh. Register and make sure you VOTE. TBO

17 October: This is one of those days when nothing much has happened. I’m sure there’s a lot of ordinary stuff going on, but DDT has been quiet (nice for a change), no one is being fired (for now), Mueller is somewhere in the background doing what he does best, Pat Robertson is out front telling everyone “The hell with morality, we don’t want to jeopardize that 100 million dollar arms deal”. I’m sure that’s the right thing to do (NOT). We still have the fuss about native American Indian heritage. Thanks FF-DDT. You have totally obscured the important issues of the day with utter nonsense. Only 19 days to go and then we can VOTE and TBO

16 October: Well that clears that up (Ha HA). The Saudis have totally denied that their team of professional killers killed anyone with knowledge of the people they work for. And, our fearless feckless leader is supporting them, pending a full self-investigation. Even Lindsey Graham is against the outrageous murder committed by the Saudis. He’s as angry at the Saudis as he was against Dr. Ford. I can understand, after all, it was only attempted rape as opposed to almost certain real murder. We should have self-investigation with all crime as it would greatly simplify our court system and empty our jails. Why did no one think of this before? DDT is back to name calling. He sounds like an idiot (surprise), but then he’s talking to his own people, people just like him. Elizabeth Warren would be better served to just ignore the nutcase and adopt the Pocahontas label as a badge of honor. After all, DDT resembles a horse's (DNA??), and one could easily refer to him as such with nary a blush. While she is as much Indian as I am Irish, my ancestors did live in England, so it's possible way back then that I had an Irish horse thief for a forbear. I could just add an O' prefix to my name and move on. Will somone offer me a million dollars to take a DNA test. Of course, I'd want it held in escrow. Where's the sheriff when DDT welches on a bet? DDT will fall under his own weight shortly, either b Mueller or the prosecutors in NY going after his financial shenanigans (crimes). Unfortunately, the fall will not be in time for the mid-term elections, but hopefully well before 2020. Republicans are still going for voter suppression. It’s sad to see this country undermined by Republican “win at any cost”. Once again, November 6 draws ever closer, so register to vote, and then really vote. TBO

15 October: Watch out. There are Rogue Killers on the loose. How do I know this? Well, our fearless feckless leader, FF-DDT, fabricated Rogue Killers probably using imaginary 3-D printing. It worked. Those Rogue Killers caused deflection as the all too gullible press repeated this stupidity. over and over. Aren't there more important things going on in the world?  In the meantime, FF-DDT welched on a bet he made with Senator (and possible 2020 Presidential candidate) Elizabeth Warren, namely he would pay her 1 million dollars if a DNA test proved she was at least some fraction Native American. The outcome, she was and he didn’t. What a surprise from a person that has bilked almost anyone who has come in contact with him. Hey, I’m shocked. The DDT administration proposed a rule change that would benefit consumers by forcing drug companies to reveal prices on those ubiquitous TV ads for medicines. It hasn’t gone into effect yet, and DDT has not weighed in on the change. So, it still could go up in smoke. November 6 is rapidly approaching. There’s still time to register to vote. So make sure you can vote and TBO

14 October: DDT gave a garbled speech talking about General Lee during the civil war, calling him a great general. In reality he was also praising General Grant, who was the only Union general able to beat Lee. But the sentences and syntax is so garbled that NBC messed it up and thought DDT was praising Lee and his rebel government. They issued retraction, which is the right thing to do, but it doesn ‘t change the fact that DDT’s mind is a mess. With DDT negotiating at home and overseas, nothing but chaos is likely due to almost certain misunderstandings from a person that cannot formulate a sentence (and I thought Bush was bad). For today, things are relatively quiet. Tomorrow, we’ll see whether the stock market rebounds or continues last week’s fall (so called dead cat bounce on Friday). We also have voter suppression in a number of states (gotta love those “cheatin” Republicans, especially in Georgia where the incumbent governor is also the regulator for voting and is enforcing overly strict voter-ID laws. Even a missing hyphen is enough to cause trouble.). Bottom line, register, vote in November and throw the bums out (TBO).

13 October: Mueller is again coming back into the picture. Of course, he’s been there all along toiling quietly behind the scenes while being overshadowed by BK and the mewling of DDT. If only the press would ignore him, we’d all sleep more peacefully. Much more painful to good old DDT is the action going on about his finances in NY and the potential fraud involved in avoiding taxes. Of course DDT is ignoring the Saudi scandal, problems with global warming, and anything else that requires a sense of ethics and duty. The border wall is coming up again as McCarthy introduces legislation to fund the wall. Unfortunately for the Republicans, it will take 60 votes in the Senate to pass. It’s not going to happen, but it makes good campaign fodder for the sheep. It’s amazing. Somehow DDT got Andrew Brunson released from Turkey (was there a price, who knows) and then asks him who he and his wife voted for in 2016? Does DDT have an ego problem? It’s sad and sick. Vote in November and TBO

12 October: It’s Friday and the weekend looms. The left wing party of the Democrats are shooting themselves in the foot complaining about a deal approving judges without a futile fight. They would rather have the fight just for symbolism. Perhaps, two months ago you could have the fight, but now campaigning to win elections is more important. Since the Senate rules have changed, thanks to slimy McConnel, there is no leverage for the minority party (think Kavenaugh) to block DDT's judicial appointments. More interesting, the Saudis appear to have definitely (audio and perhas video recordings) murdered Kashoggi in their consulate in Turkey, and our great turkey, DDT, says “tut tut, bad boys, you shouldna done it, now let’s get back to business as usual” (buy my planes and guns). I can’t stand that man. DDT does serious damage to the US and then takes credit for the good things that have almost nothing to do with him. Remember, DDT has pre-existing conditions; low IQ, poor reading ability, and a bloated ego. Under Obama, we could have removed some of the conditions (glasses and an ego puncture tool, the IQ problem is intractable), but under TrumpCare we are stuck with DDT as is for a while. The November elections are a like a low cost heath plan. We can relieve the pain, but cannot afford to cure the disease. That would take a DDTectomy, which is not covered under TrumpCare, just like your pre-existing medical conditions. Breath deeply, stay calm, and try to outlive his presidency. For this year, time is getting short. Get out and vote in November. 25 days left. TBO

11 October: Twenty five days and counting until we have a chance, a good chance, to stop this charade of government and get the US started back on track. It’s time to get the crazy Republicans out of power and limit the nut job we have as President. Democrats can start real investigations in either the House or Senate and find out what is really going on. DDT will rage and scream about witches and goblins, but ultimately he may get fitted for an orange suit and lose a big chunk of his fortune. Nikki Haley (UN ambassador) wants to spend time away from the absolutely amazing Kushners. It’s time to act. Vote in November and TBO.

10 October: DDT is at it again. DDT’s bleating racial epithets and getting In bed with right wing nationalists (neo-nazis). He’s blaming women and minorities for the opposition to his malignant policies. Right now we seem to be in an era of uncivil right, the right to lie and cheat, and falsely attack the reputation of others. One would think that all this would turn off American voters and cause them to get rid of this political cancer epitomized by DDT. However, I am afraid that the anger against DDT is fading and that the demagoguery is succeeding. Of course, we will not know until November 6, but the news is ominous. And then there are the details including tax breaks for the rich, the undermining of medical care for everyone, and the pollution of the planet by making rules that favor coal consumption. So, as usual, vote in November and TBO.

9 October: It’s time to focus on the upcoming elections and the machinations of the vile DDT. He’s off holding rallies with the usual crowing and spewing of hate and divisiveness. His UN ambassador, Niki Haley, just resigned showing more intelligence than I expected. Smart lady, get out before the collapse. If the Democrats take the lead in either the Senate of the House, it will be a replay of the end of the House of Cards. There will be a real investigation into the corruption pervasive in the DDT regime. Let's see those tax returns. Let's see all of the foreign bank transactions. Let's see all of the illegal business transactions. Vote in November and TBO

8 October Took the day off to feel sorry for myself and all other people believing in human rights and dignity. Vote and TBO

7 October: Can I remember an incident that caused trauma for me long ago? Yes. Did you talk about it to your family or friends? No. can you tell me about it now? Yes. My mother took me into a store where they killed live chickens. The overall memory is vague. I just have a vivid memory of the chicken dying. I cannot remember the date, the address, the names of the people witnessing the event, or how I got home. But, I remember the chicken 100%. I have lived with that trauma my whole life and have never told anyone until now. Yes I 100% believe Dr Ford. I am not making fun of her or taking her lightly. She remembers that “chicken” very clearly (100%). Now that we have BK on the Supreme Court, we just have to wait and see what crawls out of the shell. Vote in November and TBO. 

6 October: They’ve done it. We now have a probable rapist on the Supreme Court and an almost certain Republican Party hack. BK’s troubles are not over. There are judicial complaints given to the chief justice John Roberts that he was holding onto until after the vote. Now, perhaps we will get to see the nature of the complaints and see if they are actionable. I am so disappointed at Senator Susan Collins. Her weak speech justifying her vote left me speechless. Perhaps she’s an old white man in drag. Who knows, I’m just saying. Just keep her out of the men’s room. Now let’s hope that Maine votes her out in 2020. I’ve contributed to her opponent, whomever that is, and if the opponent turns out to be anybody reasonable with a chance to win, I’ll contribute more. We need to turn this around and grind the Republicans control of the House and Senate into the ground. Down with McConnell and his ugly hordes. BK played the Senate with Nope a Dope (remember Mohammed Ali and Rope a Dope) and won the fight by sheer fatigue from lying over and over. It's more than woman's rights, with BK and DDT it's the rights of everyone that works for a living, especially those working in big business and government. Be mad, very mad, and vote in November. TBO. 

5 October: If Senator Murkowski really wanted to bring BK’s nomination to a halt, she could do it single handedly by simply switching parties. McConnell would be out and the nomination would stop instantly. She beat the Republicans at their own game by winning as a write in candidate. She could do it again. Having BK on the Supreme Court is abominable. Worker’s right and women’s rights will suffer. This guy is no joke. The best we can do now is vote in November and TBO in both the Senate and the House. There’s all kinds of other bad stuff going on with DDT and the rest of the world (how about Brazil and the neo-Nazi that wants to be leader, Maduro and Duterte redux). So, TBO!

4 October: Did you know that the FBI is in the hardware business? Well, they are. They are now selling whitewash to the Senate. Amazingly, the Senators bought it. It now looks as if the Republicans are using this incomplete report as political cover to vote for BK. They are bunch of spineless monkeys. It’s really sad. Now we have to face 25 years of a partisan hack on the Supreme Court. If you are a woman, a minority, or just someone that works in industry, you should worry as your rights and income erodes. It is pitiful that Mitch McConnell is ramming this nomination down our throats. MM will go down in history as an unprincipled schemer, effective manipulation, but not in the interest of the country. Of course, the leopard could change his spots, water could flow uphill, and BK could be a reasonable and fair justice. Remember, Vote in November and TBO.

3 October: As expected, DDT couldn’t keep it in his  …. He had to publically mock Dr. Ford in a campaign style rally. It was beyond his usual mocking, it was really cruel. The mocking will get him less than nothing. His know-nothing base is wedded to his lies and distortions, but the rest of the country is realizing that we have an evil buffoon as president.  Hopefully, November will rein him in more than a little. The tax issue, DDT’s cheating a fraud investigation, should keep him busy and awake at night. That one gets him where it hurts, in his wallet. It now looks like his wealth that he earned is really bogus. It’s been said that if he simply had invested the money his father gave him he’d be much richer than he was able to obtain by his failed enterprises. I’m so glad that 21 Republican representatives in the House conspired to keep his financial tax information from the public. I will bet that there  is more fraud to be uncovered in recent years.  Way to go , guys.  Always put your party ahead of the country. Now BK wants Dr. Fords therapy notes. Given the state of things in his nomination she should agree.  Vote in November and TBO.

2 October: As predicted earlier, DDT has almost certainly committed tax fraud trying to maximize the amount her received from his father’s estate. Is the president immune from tax fraud?  I hope the law applies to him as would to any other citizen of the USA.  The NYT has a really good article detailing DDT’s fraud.  A little free economy housing would be appropriate for DDT (plus it would save him money). I’m still waiting on the BK front. The little I’ve seen in new information supports Dr. Ford.  BK was a cosby. DDT is off again getting another dose of adulation from his Republican base. Really sad. Vote in November and TBO

1 October: We’re still on pause. The FBI probe is turning up little tidbits, and DDT is publically saying that the probe can be expanded. Interesting, but will it really expand? DDT agrees that there was a drinking problem with BK. That’s obvious.  No was there an assault problem as well? On other stuff, Canada joined the new NAFTA, which closely resembles the old NAFTA with a few small tweaks. I guess it’s good news from DDT. Will Congress approve? That remains to be seen. Also it looks like BK and team may have tampered with witnesses before the New Yorker story and hearings started.  Vote on Novemver 6 and TBO.

30 September: A day of relative peace. Nice interview on 60 Minutes TV News program with Senators Flake and Coons. These two reminded me of how senators should behave, as colleagues, not enemies. The republicans are probably going to tough this one out and likely take a beating in November.  But, you never know. Democrats and Independents may sleep through the election just as in 2016.  The only new news was from Kellyanne Conway who revealed that “SHETOO” was a victim. But, KC couldn’t leave it at that. She motor mouthed her way to blaming the victims of sexual assault. “Sad, but they need to take responsibility for their own behavior”.  I cannot wait for these bums to be gone from the administration.  Hopefully, at least 2 republican Senators and all Democratic Senators will turn BK down in the full Senate vote at the end of the week. Don’t hold your breath. This is not Profiles in Courage, but rather Cringe in Shame.  Vote in November and TBO

29 September:  Jeff Flake to the rescue, sort of.He voted to send the nomination out of committee, but then forced the judicial committee to pause for a week while the FBI conducts a limited check of the accusations of sexual abuse and assault. Meanwhile the Maryland governor, the not so honorable Larry Hogan, has declined to open a Maryland investigation of the charges from 3 women, even though the alleged crimes took place in Maryland. Too bad, since there is no statute of limitations in Maryland for this type of crime. His gutlessness doesn’t want to be bothered, especially during an election season. Meanwhile DDT plays golf. Then there is the ever charming Linsey Graham, a South Carolina Senator, who spoke so eloquently in defense of the honor of the Republicans and the obvious despicable nature of the Democrats. Of course, I’m  joking sarcastically. He was totally out of control in a rant of how dare you question a fine upstanding possible rapist and known drunkard and liar, and partisan political hack, who otherwise is eminently qualified for a Supreme Court justice (after all he did go to Yale). Both BK and LG have a serious case of foot in mouth disease. BK is almost definitely a cosby (new word for dangerous sexual predator). As always, Vote in November, preferably before or on election day and TBO. If you don’t vote and the bums stay in power, don’t complain when they screw you and yours over.

28 September: Two brave women confronted Jeff Flake. He and another Senator got an FBI investigation going. DDT limited it to 1 week.  In 1 week they can do quite a lot. If nothing else they can interview BK’s old friend under oath.  The performance of BK, and it was a performance, a partisan performance out of DDT’s playbook, was angry and ugly. This man has no business being a judge of any kind. Now we have t wait and see if anything solid turns up. Bottom line is that Dr. Ford was very believable and BK seems to have a major pattern of misbehavior. Plus it's clear he lies, not just in this hearing, but in his other testimony. Too bad there are no pictures of BK standing in line (as reported) to be part of a gang rape.  Throw the bum out. Vote in November and TBO

27 September:  This will be brief. Dr. Ford was convincing and brave in her detailed description of her tragic encounter with B Kavenaugh. BK on the other hand, was belligerent, evasive, and thoroughly not convincing. It’s a pity that no one took pictures 35 years ago of some of the events BK abusively appears to have laughingly joined.  There is no need to go into detail here.  The press has done a magnificent job describing all the excruciating details. Now it just remains to see if a few of the Senators have the courage to see the inappropriateness of nominating BK to the Supreme Court. Even a Jesuit magazine has found the gumption to call for the nomination to be cancelled. BK says he fears for the future. Everyone with an iota of fairness should also say “Me Too”. Enough said.  As usual, get rid of BK, Vote in November and TBO.

26 September:  DDT says that he could be persuaded to change “his mind” on Kavenaugh after the hearing. Perhaps…Maybe…Somehow….there’s a shred of hope that DDT sees his own self-interest that happens to coincide with that of the nation.   Perhaps…Maybe…Somehow….that good man BK will go down in flames and even Perhaps…Maybe…Somehow….lose his current judgeship on the court of appeals. Such a nice guy who “never did that", the choir boy, deserves all the humiliation he can get just reward for his overweaning ambition to fly close to the sun. May the wax melt and his hair fall out. Of course, half the country considers him guilty until proven innocent (Right).  Now we have a 3rd woman, Julie Swetnick who is accusing him of even worse misdeeds. She’s accusing him of committing a Bill Cosby (drugs and alcohol making a woman unable to defend herself).  That’s a good name for his alleged deeds. BK accused of being a cosby. That’s how the word quisling came to mean traitor. So a cosby should mean a sexual predator – use it as a noun, use it as a verb, but never capitalize it. "I sentence you to between 3 and 10 years for being a cosby". Trump is accusing China of interfering in the upcoming elections, when it’s still Russia doing most of the interference. This is really funny. As usual, his talking is “sound and fury signifying nothing (Faulkner)”. If you want to signify something, then on November 6 vote and TBO.

25 September: At least the world at the UN treated DDT as the joke is most closely resembles. Bloody idiot, claiming that hios administration has done more than any in history. What garbage. I'm glad they laughed at him. Unfortunately, the joke's on us Thursday’s the day when we answer the burning question. Does BK pay for the crime of idiotic drunken passion committed so long ago. Right now it seems as if there's a strong pattern to his behavior, not just a single instance of inexplicable attack on the young Dr. Ford.  I’m not sure about the reasonn for professional prosecutor that the Republicans brought in to question Dr. Ford. I suspect it’s so that there will be no individual record of the Republicans asking nasty questions. It's not going to work. Hopefully, the woman (and men) will see this for what it is, a character examination of a person who has no business on the Supreme Court. When in doubt, don’t shout. I can’t believe that the future of our democracy is going to depend on such tawdry details. Vote in November and TBO

24 September:  More women more accusations, BK’s going down. Now he’s messing with Avenatti (Stormy Daniels lawyer) and a third woman who has promised to come forward on Thursday. Well. Now we know that implausibly that BK was a virgin. It’s a good defense, but not against sexual assault, even if true (not likely). Think about it, you can sexually assault someone and still stay a technical virgin. This is like Bill Clinton and the question of what the meaning of is is.  Weird. Now the guy I feel sorry for is Rosenstein. A man that’s been doing his job and doing it well, but now may get fired for trying to maintain the independence of the justice department from political influences. Good play DDT, a nice smokescreen attempt, but it will not work. We’ve all got used to your tactics, and they do not work any longer. November 6 is coming up fast, and with any luck the American people will realize what jerks are in power and will thee bums out.  In the background are Russia and China gradually causing major mischief while the US is mired with the ongoing soapopera spectacle of a  mentally unstable idiot at the helm. Ban-DDT.

23 September:  Breaking news. Another shoe drops. Second woman claims BK committed sexual assault. Thud! Been away for a couple of days. Clearly I have not missed much (until just now).  But, shoes are dropping. Finally, Christine Ford is going to testify this week about her encounter with teen Judge Kavanaugh. Some of the witnesses need to be interviewed under oath, particularly the bozo with the last name the rhymes with sludge (perhaps it is fudge or something like that). Sludge's convenient forgetting is not believable, especially since he’s written in detail about drinking and partying at those prep schools.  The republican excuse for BK’s assault is “What boy has not done this”? This is the boys will be boys crap defense or the devil (hormones) made me do it. Like most things the Republicans are doing lately they avoid responsibility for the consequences. Give candy for the rabble to win at any cost, and then pay for the candy later. Of course the candy (tax break) is not going to the rabble, but to their puppet masters. Naturaly, DDT is not inactive during all of this. He’s now proposing that if you  are in the US and use any of the normal help for food or medical care, you become a “public charge” and are subject to deportation, unless you are white and from Northern Europe. That’s different.  While it is clear that some concessions need to be wrung from the Chinese (trade secrets etc.)  the use of blunt force tariffs is only going to soak the US consumer. But then DDT does not need to know anything about economics – he just relies on his very ample gut. For those with lots of money, you can ride this storms out. It looks like Brexit is simmering along with the EU hanging tough and the Brits starting to panic. They were fed a bunch of lies during the Brexit vote, and are going to face a steep price this coming spring. The trouble is, Brexit is going to affect everyone in the wallet, not just the Brits.  Trump’s been warned not to fire Rosenstein at least for now.  That usually means he will ignore the advice and plunge ahead, head first into the toilet. After the election, Congress will flush. Vote on November6 and TBO.

22 Septermber: More shoes to drop, please.

      DDT step up to the tee

      Hook left or hook right

      Then set those children free

      It's time to remove the blight

      That seems to infest the House White

      With nest of hair that's an orange fright

      Remember, Orange is the New Black

      When quickly enough you get the sack.

      Pretty soon Putin will say dosvedanya

      Purpose done, it's been nice to know ya

      Here's our movie of the golden stream

      A just reward for playing on our team

      Just remember to vote and shout

      In November, Throw the bums out.

21 Spetember:  Sigh.  Can't wait for the date (of C. Ford's testimony)

20 September:  This is the quiet before the storm. All signs point to Mueller releasing material in the near future. I wonder if he’ll make the period before the midterm elections or will he wait for after. Who knows. At the moment we are waiting for Christine Ford to decide whether she’s going to testify to Congress or not. To me it seems like she is engaging in delaying tactics for reasons unknown. Of course the late night comedians are having a field day with this whole situation. Colbert just did a simulation of the Kavanaugh/Ford hearings – very funny and sad at the same time. And then there’s Michael Cohen and Manafort talking to Mueller.  Lots of shoes in the air, but nothing hitting the floor yet. Overseas, there’s Brexit looming and the implications for the world economy. Not good the way it stands now. Everyone is being stubborn, especially the Brits. Oh well. Hang in there. Soon something important will happen.

19 September: Hillary Hillary, where have you been? Silence is Golden, but not total absence from the news. You’ve been the victim of political abuse and your own incompetence as a campaigner. If you had won, I wouldn’t be writing this blog as a form of mental relief from the idiot-in-chief. There should be another form of “Me Too” movement in the age of DDT abuse. Unfortunately, I think you are right and DDT will start firing everyone after the election.  So you DDTites, hold onto your paychecks, pay the rent or mortgage, and start looking for alternate employment. Of course, your resume will be tainted by 2 years of selling your soul working for DDT. For some of you, you were just doing your regular job. For others, the Nuremberg defense is not going to work – “I was just following orders”.  Good luck with that. Perhaps Breitbart will have job openings. Poor Christine Ford. She’s stepped into the limelight and is paying a heavy personal price. I just hope that what she has to say has some weight and meaning and not just pain over Kavenaugh for nothing.  One day closer to Election Day. Think of the pain and strain and legal turmoil you will cause for DDT if the Republicans lose one or both houses of congress. Get out and vote – TBO.

18 September:  Another “off” day. Anita Hill (think Clarence Thomas) hopes the Senate will do better this time.  Hope springs eternal; reality is a whole other kettle of fish. Waiting for shoes to drop is always hard. DDT hit China (tariffs) and China hits back (boys with toys). Let’s hope he doesn’t find the toy with the big red button. DDT declassifies secret material that might benefit him politically in the short term, but do great damage in the longer term.  But then DDT only thinks short term (sorry to abuse the term “think”). Sigh, smarmy Ted Cruz is ahead in the polls (9 points) in his Senate race. Too bad. OK enough not really news. Vote and TBO

17 September:  We are in a holding pattern. Other than DDT jr shooting his mouth off with nonsense, nothing much is happening on the BK front. There are lots of letters of support on both sides. But, he’s lying in my opinion, just as he has lies to the Senate on other matters. And then we have the actions of the idiot in chief, DDT, imposing more tariffs. This time it will hurt the general consumer. Perfect planning right before an election. Perhaps the the Republican core will get it when it gets them

16 September:  Here we go again. B Kavanaugh’s accuser is now public. Let’s suppose she’s telling the truth (she almost certainly is telling the truth). Does it have bearing on BK’s nomination to the Supreme Court. Let’s also agree that BK was drunk (he almost certainly was drunk).  The bottom line is that his actions are not something you forget even if you are drunk, unless you are forgetting on purpose in blind ambition. If BK had not lied to the Senate on a bunch of other issues, perhaps his denial would have some credence. Given his lies and the apparent veracity of her story (therapy, friends knowing, and so forth), I do not believe his denial. Plus, he was walking and talking drunk, not passed out drunk. This is the judge from Orwell’s Animal Farm. For BK everyone is equal under the law, only some people are more equal than others (sorry pigs). You can only guess who this means (the President DDT, wealthy people, people of certain religion and appearance, and of course BK). Nunes is about to strike again by releasing a Russian interference investigation report very soon. This should be fun fiction reading for the election season. The election should sweep him out of power, but not until mid-January.  Finally, Joe Biden has proved he’s alive. “I should have spoken out against Trump sooner”, you think? Well, better late than never.  Let’s hear it now, loud and strong. Take control of both houses of congress and start us down a path of decency towards our citizens and allies in an unforgiving world. Still reading "Fear", it's scary indeed.  Vote on November 6 and TBO.

15 September:  Just started to read the Bob Woodward book “Fear”. It’s amazing the sleaze detail he’s bringing back to my memory. I do remember what he is writing about, but only after the book reminds me.  The whole trip for DDT from candidate to President is amazing, especially the parts about Manafort and Bannon and their dirty tricks.  Today DDT is all excited about the Manafort plea with Giuliani providing the clown relief. SAD, so SAD. I have to read more of "Fear".  November 6th is coming. VOTE and TBO.

14 September:  There’s an old song we used to sing in the car in long boring trips:  99 shiny black shoes on the wall, if one of those shoes happened to drop, then there are 98 shiny black shoes on the wall. Well, today another shoe dropped, and there are only 93 shiny black shoes on the wall. Paul Manafort dropped two shoes into the pile on the floor. Now, he has to sing for his supper, and if the tune is not right, he does not get his shoes back, and orange is the new black. I just hope he has a good story to tell along with his brother in arms, Cohen (2 shoes dropped).  DDT has past the point where it is useful  to pardon good old Paul M. As time passes, the music gets louder. Soon it will drown out all the tweets and Sanders press conferences. The question is, who’s next?  VOTE in November and TBO.

13 September: Well DDT has done it again. He has now successfully turned a disaster in Puerto Rico into an unmitigated success. He has revived over 2000 people who were thought to have died during last year’s hurricane, restored power and access to food immediately after the winds died down. This man is truly a miracle worker. Just two tweets and all is right with the world. How could I have doubted him. Next, he will solve world peace and hunger. Perhaps, he will become Miss America

12 September:  Friend, either you're closing your eyes To a situation you do not wish to acknowledge,  Or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated By the presence of a real fool headin your community. Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right here, I say, trouble right here in Federal City. But just as I say, It takes judgement, brains, and maturity to score in any political game. I say that any boob kin take And shove a tweet in your eye-socket. Well, I should say. Now, friends, lemme tell you what I mean. He's got one, two, three, four, five, six holes inside his head, Holes that mark the diff'rence Between a gentlemen and a bum, With a capital "B," that rhymes with DDT. Mothers and Dads of Federal City! Heed the warning before it's too late! Watch for the tell-tale sign of corruption or just accept yur destruction and  fate. The moment DDT thinks you’re not a’lookin he'll get his idiocy a'cookin. A'cookin I tell ya that is my hunch he's out ot burn your lunch.. Remember the Maine, Plymouth Rock and the Golden Rule!. Oh, we've got trouble.We're in terrible, terrible trouble. Just ask old Woodward if he has Fear. Gotta figger out a way clear. To keep the congress sessions straight to get rid of all the hate. Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble...I’m a'warning you and a'warning DDT, come November you better flee. Y'all see, It will be a rout – so be prepared to Throw the bums out!   (Loosely borrowed from Music Man Ya Got Trouble" a song by Meredith Willson)

11 September:  What an idiot!  DDT is taking credit for the US hurricane response in Peurto Rico’s unmitigated disaster. DDT is claiming unrivaled success. Now he will have to deal with Florence using an underfunded Department of Homeland Security. Good luck everybody, DDT’s got you back (with a knife). At the same time, he asked to print money to cover the national debt. If that were done, the dollar would not even be worth making into wallpaper. But, at least some people are waking up. His approval rating has dropped to 40% even in the face of a strong economy. Of course, the Republicans are planning TAXCUT-2 to further increase the deficit. Already there was a push to decrease support for Medicare, Social Security and other safety net funding to reduce the artificially increased deficit.  More methane. Make methane great again by releasing it into the atmosphere (Methane is a powerful 12x Greenhouse gas) from oil well drilling and natural gas pipeline leaks. Our Environmental Protection Agency is on the job making power companies rich on the backs of current and future generations.

10 September: Nothing too much happened today. More of the same. Bob Woodward’s bool is set to be released Tuesday, but large portions have already been reviewed and commented upon. The fact that dysfunction in the White House is and has occurred is not news. What is news is that Woodward has extensive documentation of his interviews in the forms of recordings, and has multiple sources for the comments he is making about the crazyhouse. Of course DDT is claiming everything is fake and that his operation is the best and smoothest ever. Perhaps the best thing occurred in one of the late night comedy shows. Trevor Noah’s comment about the contest between former President Obama and the nutbag DDT , “It’s on,” Trevor Noah said on Monday’s broadcast of “The Daily Show.” ”President Obama vs. President Trump, the leader vs. the tweeter, yes we can vs. way too tan.” Cute. But even better was DDT’s using a purposely mangled version of Obamas speech about jobs to make his own point of how great are DDT’s ideas. It’s just another form of lying, having someone edit the real speech on PBS to totally distort the original. But for DDT, what’s one more lie.

9 September:  Hurricane about to hit the east coast near DC Oh No. Something else is in the news other than DDT. How will he handle the neglect? Probably claim it is a fake weather report. Run DDT Run, head to Florida and play golf while DC floods. I can’t believe it, liberal Sweden turning to right wing fringe parties (20%). Hopefully, the center parties can deal with the problems in a civilized way and not follow DDT's methods. The US is about to experience Kavenaugh setting the rules along with the other right wing justices (Silent Clarence Thomas, my god what a hot mess) who will echo (BK) Brett Kavenaugh. If you are a woman in the US, you should be worried about your status and health. The same thing goes for everyone who might need health care. BK wants to get rid of all the protections you currently have with health insurance companies.  On the bright side, it looks like DDT’s financial shenanigans are about to unravel, especially in New York State. We’ll probably have to wait until 2020 when DDT is no longer President so that we can provide free retirement with nice orange clothes that DDT so richly deserves. As usual, get out the vote of November 6 and TBO.

8 September:  Good news, perhaps. Indications are that Ted Cruz, the slick preacher Senator, may lose. Even better news is that DDT is worried, even though he attacked Cruz and his wife in 2016.  Good for Cruz, if he loses, he will finally have done something useful for his country. Perhaps he can go on Fox news with all the other shiny faced slime balls.  Meanwhile, Obama is doing what I hoped he would be doing, namely, campaigning for Democrats (in California today). Good for him, and even better, good for us.  Just listened to a Stormy Daniels interview in Germany (no she does not speak German), but she does sound plausible and is no dummy. She claims that she has more material that could prove very damaging to DDT. One can only hope.  DDT is going after the NYT anonymous op-ed writer. They are hiring the linguist who helped catch the unibomber.  Good  luck.  Still think it was Pence – he has the most to gain and he is ambitious and cannot be fired.  Your guess is as good as mine. There are two big things to remember. 1) Get you flu shot before November 6, and 2) make sure you vote on November 6.  If you cannot do Number 1, then do Number 2 for sure.TBO.

7 September:  Finally Obama with stirring words and his patented halting delivery (buddy get your wife Michelle, to help you speak better) has called out the craven idiot we have as President (DDT).  It took a long while for Obama to recognize that the country we live in is in mortal danger.  Sufficient danger to break with tradition and speak out as a human being instead of an ex-President.  I admire the President you were, even when I disagreed with your timid approach to the affairs of state. You were honorable in office and as your own person with your fine family. Now we need you to do the most ordinary thing. Tell it like it is, and get out the vote. You did it for yourself, twice, now do it for us.  Vote on November 6th and TBO (House + Senate) – Stop the idiocy that is DDT and his fellow Republican miscreants.

6 September: More shoes falling. A new book, "Fear" and the NYT op-ed tells it all. All, that is, except the truth about the financial house of cards that DDT built on lies and deceit. 

5 September: I hope DDT sleeps well tonight. He’s vented his spleen (strange expression) all day today about Bob Woodward’s very revealing book (all fake, of course) and the New York Times editorial piece by an anonymous high level insider (DDT says "traitor and coward", I say patriot and hero) pointing to a bunch of awful things DDT has attempted to do, along with the general dysfunction in the presendency. The editorial even says they considered using the 25th amendment, which permits removal of the president for insanity and/or gross incompetence. The last is incontrovertible.  It would have caused a constitutional crises, so they demurred (I’d say we are having a constitutional crises anyway, just a slow moving one). I’m glad there is resistance inside the White House to that nutjob. Only two months to November 6th, then the fun (real investigations) begins, if the Democrats win the House of Representatives.  TBO

4 September: Today one of the news articles makes it easy. DDT deserves the name, plus he’s insane. His lawyers are arguing that he is too crazy and too much of a compulsive liar to be allowed to testify to Mueller. His staff held a mock questioning session. Even here among his supporters, DDT just made stuff up and lied constantly. He has no understanding of event rudimentary things related to commerce and defense. This is scary.  Even a simple thing like John McCain’s release from prisoner of war, DDT claimed he sought and obtained early release, when just the opposite is true. What an insane dummy. Trump’s lawyer John Dowd explained to Mueller why he was trying to keep the president from testifying: “I’m not going to sit there and let him look like an idiot. And you publish that transcript, because everything leaks in Washington, and the guys overseas are going to say, ‘I told you he was an idiot. I told you he was a goddamn dumbbell. What are we dealing with this idiot for?’” Chief of Staff, John Kelly said, “He’s an idiot. It’s pointless to try to convince him of anything. He’s gone off the rails. We’re in crazytown,” Kelly is quoted as saying at a staff meeting in his office. “I don’t even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I’ve ever had.” With this vote of confidence, he needs to be removed from office. Republicans, get a spine. Do your duty for the country. Even a religious bigot like Spence will be better.  Vote in November and TBO.

2 September: Another blast at our Canadian neighbor, more trash about Make America Groan Again (MAGA), America never stopped being great. Do we need some improvement? You bet. A list would include, better medical care, improvement in air quality and less of other forms of pollution, less burning of coal and more renewable energy (Global Warming is a tragedy in the making), renew DACA, reign-in ICE (not eliminate), restore net neutrality (Go California) and on and on. Vote November 6  TBO. At least John McCain is now laid to rest at his beloved Naval Academy.  

1 September: Starting a new month. Nothing has changed. However, it was encouraging to see DDT playing golf while the country generally honored John McCain. At least when has is playing golf, DDT does no harm.  I’ll leave McCain’s day at that.  Remember November 6. Vote and TBO.

31 August: Not sorry to see this crazy month go, only to start another even crazier month. The centipede's shoes are continuing to fall. Another buddy (Sam Patton) pleads guilty and will cooperate with Mueller. Now Manafort has also agreed to cooperate (he’s getting tired of the food and orange clothes). Old DDT must be smoking from his orange ears.  Profanity R Us in the white house. I can hear it from here. I have to get out those DDT cancelling earphones. Meanwhile DDT continues to pound one of our best allies, Canada, a country so friendly and like us, that you can cross the border and barely notice anything amiss. The only problem with Canada occurs during the winter – it’s bloody cold.  Oh yeah, I forgot, they speak ancient French – Go Napoleon, and have a slightly strange accent when speaking English. Their TV ads are like the US, but from 30 years ago.  Basically, I’m going to sit back and watch September unfold. And then there’s the interesting hint (well, stronger than a hint) that Russia has real dirt on DDT (he’s in their pocket). DDT show your tax returns and foreign bank accounts – take it like a man and GO ORANGE.

30 August:  Missed last night, but our fake president, DDT, never fails to supply insanity. He’s doubled down on the McCain insult, threatened public employees, threatened the justice department with interference, and threatened Canada. Pretty good mess for just one day. Oh, and comedy central’s Rudi G. is preparing a report to counter Mueller’s report. I’m sure it will be carefully thought out to be fair and balanced. Since it’s Rudi G’s report it will be just as incoherent and inflammatory as his tv appearances. Of course he will get some much needed help from DDT’s legal team. I’m really looking forward to the report as I read the Sunday funnies. On an environmental note, in case you haven't noticed, the world is becoming a hotter place. Hotter to the point where there is a serious effort to have shipping take the Arctic route from Europe to Asia. Measurements are showing the Gulf Stream slowing down, which may make the US east coast region hotter than it is currently, while at the same time freezing Northern Europe in the winter and baking Southern Europe in the summer.  Of course DDT has his fine hand in this mess, pushing the US to burn more coal. They say ignorance is bliss. Not in this case. DDT’s ignorance leads to hell on earth.

29 August:  Just when you think that things can’t get worse, they do. Here we have the Republican candidate calling the winner of the democratic primary in Florida a monkey – this is perfect for bigots, but for the rest of us, it’s despicable. Ron DeSantis, quite the run for governor of Florida. Then there us DDT threatening violence if the election does not go for the Republicans. Where did we get this wannabe incompetent tinpot dictator?  Where is the spine in congressional Republicans that let this evil idiot get away with this and other really bad things. Our biggest hope is Mueller showing that DDT is a real criminal, just like Mannafort. We need to get rid of the real enemy of the people, DDT and Fox unNews, not CNN or the New York Times. Now, the dumb bunny is claiming that China hacked Clinton’s emails – the FBI and, of course, China disagrees. I realize that DDT has a quota to make, at least 7 lies per day, It’s a tough job that only an ignorant sociopath like DDT can do.

28 August: Hot news:  Google search reflects reality. DDT upset that there are not enough good results praising him, threatens prosecution! Good luck, dummy.  You must think that you are President in a tinpot dictatorship – all hail DDT.  The DDT presidency resembles a clown car. You sit and watch as a series of clowns (tweets) keep getting out of an impossibly small car (mind) with no end in sight. If this were a bad movie, the comedy would be intense, right up there with juvenile bathroom humor. Unfortunately, this is real life, so the joke’s on us regardless of which way we voted in 2016. I think my basic evaluation (2016) of his presidency is still valid. That is, if he doesn’t get 100 million people killed in a war, he will have a success. Gallows humor.  In the news, DDT thinks he's undone NAFTA, since he doesn’t realize that he does not have the power to do so. Only Congress can undo NAFTA. The new agreement with Mexico (if approved) will only make things worse for  the US than the original NAFTA agreement. Obama proposed real reforms, but the Republicans would have none of it. Uh oh. Mannafort is seeking a plea deal with Mueller. More unravelling for DDT and his family.  Let’s see those tax returns and foreign bank accounts. Remember, DDT, orange is a good color for you, it’s the new gold.

27 August: White House flag flies at full staff. I guess this is a response to DDT’s small hands and small brain, much smaller then J McCain’s. Basically, this is an incoherent statement of the narcissism that pervades DDT’s administration. “If it’s not me (DDT), then it’s not worth mentioning”. SAD! Right now the news is relatively quiet, nothing new from Mueller or revelations from DDT’s former cronies. Remember, this brewing scandal has MORE shoes than a centipede, and only three have dropped so far.  Waiting for the other shoes to drop will take a while.  It’s not just Mueller that’s giving good old DDT the willies, there is also the New York investigation, which is potentially more damaging. Unfortunately, there is nothing funny going on today, just more of the sad small minded stuff. Someone pointed out that lines from Macbeth fit DDT's doomed soul well. Paraphrasing loosely, "Most of those DDT commands move only in command, nothing in love (cannot explain Nunes). Now does he feel his title hanging loose about him, like a giant’s robe upon a dwarfish beast." DDT, LOWER THAT FLAG. Remember, VOTE IN NOVEMBER AND TBO.

26 August: A day of respite from DDT (tweet whimpers, grimaces, and threats) in honor of John McCain, a true national hero. Not just for his exemplary behavior in Vietnam, but for his long service in the Senate of the US. His was the voice of reason whether you agreed with him or not. He also had the ability to recognize his own mistakes and apologize for them, a rare ability in a politician. He had his own flaws, such as picking the no-nothing Sarah P. for vice president. He lost, so no harm done. He voted for the tax cut and increasing the deficit, but then voted to preserve the ACA giving poor people a shot at medical care.  While not perfect, McCain will be hard to impossible to replace.

25 August: Almost to September, but the pot keeps boiling whether we watch it or not.  Now DDT is again hinting at firing Jeff S. Go for it DDT.  Hop out of that white oval frying pan. Go ahead, we double dare you.  Of course, I’ve no sympathy with Jeff S. There are many real reasons to fire that bigot of an AG, not the least is his support of voter suppression, regression of woman’s rights, seizing your assets if you happen to have COYWD (sounds like a disease, but is just cash on you while driving). You are right. What am I thinking? That money goes to a good cause.  The police really need the latest military gear to storm a house. A good Stryker with an armored turret for a machine gun costs real money. It’s perfect for a police home invasion on a suburban street.  Of course, sometimes the police really do need protection from a weirdo holed up with a semi-automatic weapon.  But, back to DDT and his tweet whimpering. He rambles on about Kanwe West while ignoring a dying American (John McCain). JM and I might not agree on lots of stuff, but for honest JM it always was country and principles first. I will mourn him when he is gone. It’s a pity that most of the Republican Party doesn’t know what courage is about. Their profile of courage is to scream like a monkey and keep your eyes averted while walking in dirt. I could use the other four letter word here, but this note is rated G. But back to Jeff S. Why would you a bare bodkin carry, O mighty DDT? Why, the better to stab you in the back, my dear while you heavy fardels do bear as I transport my presidency to the undiscovered country (sort of a quote from Shakesmear and the Big bad Wolf). So soft you now your morbid tweets and go gently into that good night, while raging, raging against the dying light (the other Dylan).

24 August:  DDT (as Alice’s red queen) is on the "off with their head" mode. How exciting. Perhaps he’ll emulate the Cheshire Cat and disappear with only his smile remaining as a faint memory. Impossible, we’ll never forget that jerk. He's ignorant of the law, ignorant of history, and ignorant of real current events. To have a national leader like this is a total shame to to any rational American – yes I am implying that there are a significant number of clearly irrational ones out there.  You don’t have to be a liberal to know this. You could be a real Republican and be conservative in the original sense, and see the absurdity of a sociopathic DDT. His minion are about to collapse on him with his financial empire in jeopardy. The latest with limited immunity for his chief financial officer (real estate business) is the blow that may be his undoing. Possible tax avoidance, foreign banks, fraudulent loans, and who knows what else (could there be a Russian oligarch in the mix). Yesterday it was down with Jeff S (US AG), today it’s why aren’t you going after those missing emails. I say Lock Him Up as soon as he’s not President anymore. A nice gold colored cell would be perfect (gold paint, that is) to go with his orange coveralls. One of the news reports mentions the idea of “speaking indictments” that Mueller has used. A new term to me, but basically it’s an indictment that gives much more detail than needed in order to inform the public and press of what is happening and to prepare the next person (Roger Stone?) for possible involvement. It lets them know that cooperation is better than intransigence.  Smart move. More tomorrow as the world turns.

23 August:  Took the day off to watch the shoes dropping. It looks like there's a centipede out there with lots of shoes and some SNEAKERS.

22 August:  Two shoes have dropped. We’re still waiting for the other shoe to drop, the shoe that has anything to do with DDT and Russia. Now shoe #2 may have a lot to do with financial impropriety in New York and overseas before DDT became a candidate, but this is not what the press has been salivating about.  Bottom line, the other shoe is nowhere to be seen, YET. Other than that, the day is quiet. As usual DDT is tweetstorming, no surprise there and nothing new.  His tweets and speeches have just become background noise. The election is drawing near with the question, will the dems take one or both houses of congress? Either one or both will make 2019 very interesting indeed. No more fake Nunes investigations. Vote in November and throw the bums out (TBO).

21 August: Well well well…the news is interesting today. Manafort guilty on 8 counts of bank and tax fraud (10 more for possible retrial). Of course, the guilty verdict comes with benefits, free housing, food, clothing, and medical care. I hope you like orange (remember truth is not truth so perhaps orange is not orange – perhaps black).  Oh, and Cohen has pleaded guilty to some of the same stuff. He might get lucky and be Paul M’s cellmate with matching clothes. What a pair (of losers), they deserve each other. Bubble bubble DDT the DMOD is in trouble. Will the little orange frog with the yellow hairy comb over jump or stay in the oval pan. Sorry for the mixed name calling. Tune in to this station in a month or so to find out as the world turns. I’d say take a deep breath, but with the new coal de-regulations, you better do it quickly, cough cough.  Remember, vote in November and TBO.

20 August:  For thee let me set the scene. Act 1 Scene 10: The little orange frog is in the white oval pan sitting on top of boiling water. He says, "I fired Comey got rid of Cohen, hmmm it's getting warm here. I trashed Omarosa and Jeff Sessions, hey it's getting hot." Looks to the sky and says; "To jump or not to jump, that is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to die quickly from the slings and arrows (or with with a big splash) or to slowly fry while taking arms against a sea of fake news. If by opposing I might end them while putting Mueller to sleep. By a sleep I say we end the thousand unnatural shocks. Tis a consummation to be devoutly wished for (check Fox news first). " Yeah, I could go on and make weary of your ears. But if so, the currents might turn awry and lose their shame of action.  All mimsy were ye borogoves, and ye mome raths outgrabe.  It seems very pretty, but it's rather hard to understand! What’s new is Brennen’s in the stew and everyone’s outraged.

19 August: Finally the truth is out. According to Rudi G (former mayor of NYC and now DDT’s attorney) the Truth isn’t truth after all, but there could be alternate truths (spin-off of alternate facts). I’m glad that’s cleared up. I was really confused by the Truth concept. Religion figured this out long ago, there’s my truth and your truth (all lies), and I am not going to tolerate your truth. You are going to hell, either in the afterlife, or in this life, if I can arrange it.  Stretch you on the rack or burn at the stake, then we’ll see what’s true or not.  Bam! I told you to keep your mouth shut. DDT insists that he has nothing to hide in the probe of his Russian connections, and he’ll cooperate. He is even willing to prepare a list of questions that you may ask him (and only those questions). Do you speak Russian? Have you been to Russia?  Are Russian woman pretty? Does Putin have an honest handshake?  These and other similar tough penetrating questions should clear everything up. Anything else is fake news based on alternate truth. Yay Rudi. Did you know that Chuck Todd sprained his jaw muscles (hyper-extended jaw drop) this morning on Meet the Press interviewing Rudi G?  Doctors say he will recover by next Sunday, but will have to have less idiocy on his show to prevent a repeat jaw drop. This week it became known that DDT’s White House lawyer, McGahn, turned on DDT and testified extensively to Mueller based on fear of becoming another John Dean, who famously was hung out to dry by Watergate’s Tricky Dick Nixon.  Of course we know this is all true based on DDT’s angry anti-truth tweets denying it all.  Woof woof, the DMOD is frothing at the mouth for all the fake kibbles in his dog dish.  And, this is only Sunday, a day of rest for most Americans. I know that there's a few Saturdays and Fridays in the mix. But metaphors are sometimes mixed up. And in DDT's case he grabs those metaphors by the you know what and they like it because he's a metaphore for a DMOD.

18 August:  DDT the DMOD marches ahead (Trumpets heard in the background) “All Bow to his most Imperial Majesty, King of Insecurity, Master of the Universe” (Trumpets louder with snare drum rolls)…."Oh ye Peasants, quake in your boots, for I am about to make you great again down to your roots, as Great you were in times of yore, from your flaky hair down to your core. Shout louder you masses or I’ll kick your asses “lock her up with the crooked press, that pudgy female in the pink dress”. Fealty or die, the party is moi. Listen to me lie, like greasy foie gras. Vote unguilty for poor Paul M, while I revoke clearances for you and them. Love little rocket man and big bad Putin, You voted for me and my many crony, Vote me again or get a real bootin. (Trumpets fading into the murky distance). Crowd shouts "Seig Vile, Seig Vile, Seig Vile....."

17 August:  The empire strikes back with a heavy breathing Darth V (aka DDT, the DMOD, see 15 August) has revoked security clearances for retired leaders who disagreed with the empire. Shocking! Actually, it is a shocking abuse of authority for petty personal reasons.  I can’t wait for Mueller to bring him down a notch, failing that, the November elections should make him vulnerable.  Please come out and vote. Your future is at stake. If you like garbage like Brexit, sullying the reputation of the US throughout the world, like lying and cheating, then by all means stay home, But, if you like a government that is reasonably honest and efficient, that recognizes allies and enemies, recognizes that in a complicated world we do need help from the government, then come out and vote and TBO.  Manafort is in the jury stage. We’re holding our collective breath for a guilty verdict. Then DDT can pardon him and take the consequences. It is so sad to watch a democracy being taken apart by a narcissistic idiot. One only hopes that the institutions of the US democracy will survive. Of course we have Omarosa in the background playing DDT's game only better. She may be nasty as a loyal friend, but she's smarter than DDT.  Go O.

16 August:  What fun.  DDT  is lashing out in excellent autocratic form. Between demeaning people by calling them names (you know stupid, dog, etc.) and removing access to classified material from some of the most qualified people who are critics of his antics. Reminds you of Turkey a bit. Next, he’ll try to throw people in jail (that’ll never happen here, right).  Omarosa has more tapes.  Now we have a tape of her being bribed for $15,000  per month just to keep her quiet. And, she says there are more tapes. I hope there's some good stuff to come. Reminds me of Wikileaks in reverse. The $15,000 is enough to pay the rent, but not really a lot of money. Perhaps DDT should have offered a half million up front.  Oh, and then there’s that illegal NDA (non-disclosure agreement).  Keep digging DDT. Pretty soon you’ll fall into your own hole. Bad image there (sorry).  He’s now accusing newspapers of collusion for publishing similar editorials (voluntarily) critical of DDT, while claiming it’s similar to Sinclair’s (the right wing TV station empire) forcing TV reporters to read exactly the same comments – the difference is forcing as opposed to voluntary.  Then we have another of his cheater companions, the head of the FCC (Fed communications Commission) making up a cyberattack (DNS) to suppress the public comments against his internet policies, and then falsly testifying to congress – lying to Congress is bad stuff – jail stuff – or at least “lose your job stuff”.  Can't happen soon enough. Remember, vote and TBO in November

15 August: It's a sad day for dogs everywhere. A simple loyal critter's appellation is being used to disparage a wide variety of people that the deranged mangy orange dog DMOD happens to dislike. Of course, DDTs deranged semi-private behavior is being revealed as never before. Hard to refute those recordings that DDT taught his subordinates to make. DMOD claims to tape conversations with his co-workers and clients to use as weapons later. No wonder that people working for him resort to the same low-life tactics in self-defense. Phew, the case is over. Four hours of summation and then we will know the fate of the alleged tax and bank cheater Manafort.  Then the mystery begins again. Who's next.

14 August:  Wow, DDT taking Omarosa to court (actually to arbitration) for violating a confidentially agreement for a public employee. That should be a hoot.  I’d be careful, if I were DDT. A lot of nasty stuff could come out in such a case, if it goes public.  You would think that she was working for DDT personally, instead of the American people. This is just basic harassment.  Of course, it’s about the book she just published, which describes some of the trashy stuff going on during the campaign and signed an agreement not to tell all.  Big news. DDT had a tweet storm today, unloading against Mueller (shocking), the attorney general Jeff S. (amazing), the Department of Justice (outrageous), and his favorite target, the FBI (phooey). Of course he caling Omarosa names (dog and crazed crying lowlife). I’m sure those will hurt (not). The more DDT does things like that, the more Omarosa’s claim that he is unhinged and demented ring true. Too bad DDT doesn’t realize how stupid he sounds. Hmmm, Manafort defense rests its case without calling witnesses. Good move. Cross examination would just have made it worse for Manafort. I hope he likes Orange-wear and group dining.

13 August:  On the surface not much is happening. Underneath the clock is ticking. I suspect that when the Manafort case is decided, Mueller will release his report. Right now, the prosecution has rested their case and the defense will try to impugn the integrity of the prosecution’s witnesses. Releasing it before the jury’s verdict would give Manafort grounds for appeal on the possibility that the jury heard the report and became biased. Plus, I suspect that some of the financial shenanigans that Manafort used were also used by DDT.  There was a great flood of Russian money backing DDT (according to Donald Jr.). This money probably is not properly accounted for in tax statements and business dealings with banks. DDT is running scared. Remember in November TBO.

12 August:  It’s still morning, so there has not been time for anything momentous to occur. But. Doonesbury has struck a blow, a rare blow nowadays, but today  a comic strip worth reading that captures the upward direction of the Republican Party. Ha Ha.  The “fake” news Washington Post has some really good stuff today, Dana Milbank’s “Who’s fit to judge Rosenstein”, which runs through the list of alleged crooked politicians out to get Rosenstein, including good old tape recorded party before country Devin N (Nunes) and some of his henchmen. And, on the same page, a scary column by Anne Applebaum, “America’s rule of law is in dismal shape”. This basically describes the breakdown of American institutions (justice department and congress) that are supposed to be a bulkwork against alleged crooks like Mannafort and DDT. This column is an indictment of them and the institutions that are supposed to protect us from criminal enterprise. I could not express it better than these two. There’s some justified sarcasm in Dana Milbank’s article, but Anne Applebaum is deadly serious. Then there’s DDT’s (called her lowlife)  Omarosa’s new book about deceiving the nation and other endearing features of DDT’s personality and regime. Remember November and TBO (see 11 August). Later:  Listen to former white house aide Omarosa during her interview on Meet the Press. If 50% is accurate, it's pretty damning. 

11 August:  It’s Saturday in August and DDT is playing golf while Rome burns – in this case Rome is Turkey, Iran, North Korea, and China, two of whom are threatening World War 3. Mostly bluster, but unnerving in any case. China is suggesting it might intervene in Syria on the side of Assad. Makes sense; it would irritate the US and not bother a totally amoral Chinese government in the least. Chinese people would barely know what is going on with the heavy press and internet censorship.  The good news is that insider trader Chris C has stopped his campaign for reelection. He knows he’s in line for free housing, clothing, and food for the next few years. Too bad they no longer use horizontal stripes, but orange will work for me. Going after Turkey puts the US use of their airbase in jeopardy. Could be that we are seeing the first dissolution of NATO, one of DDT’s goals as a Putin stooge. Mueller, where is your report? We need to see the financial shenanigans of DDT. Probably just like Mannafort (alleged money laundering through Russian controlled banks) Meanwhile, California burns and Europe roasts; what climate change, what global warming? The ice is melting at a furious pace. Oceans will rise, drinking water will become scarce, crops will fail, and famine will occur. Wait, what is this "will", it's happening now. Fortunately, I am an optimist and firmly believe tomorrow will be better, or perhaps the day after or the day after the day after. You get the idea. Sigh!  Remember, Vote in November and TBO (throw the bums out).

10 August: Another down day. Nothing much happened. August is really a slow month. Mannafort appears to have gotten a fast track loan in exchange for a promise of a position in DDT’s administration. For anyone other than DDT this would be the stuff of scandal, but for DDT, small potatoes. Alex Jones continues to be banned, and the alt-right is debating whether to look less like Nazis.  Smart move. Supreme Court hearings are now being scheduled. This is the scariest thing that happened today. Kavanaugh, the judge for an imperial president, a Putinista.

9 August:  The Nunes tapes titled: Party before Country. The tapes indicate a Dereliction of duty as an elected official. Protect criminals at all costs.  One can only hope he evaporates by non-election soon. I'll give Nunes credit though. He's consistently wrongheaded and lacks any sense of fairness. What he lacks in intelligence he makes up for in stubborn pig-headedness. And then, we have the beginning of the Pence “Space Force”. That one should cost a bundle, which Is not to say that there is no real concern. But, do we really need a new bureaucracy?  Hmmm.  Where’s that money coming from? Oh yes. We’ll get it by reducing capital gains taxes and from the new tariff revenue stream. Did you hear the latest? Apparently there is a semisecret troika in Florida (DDT’s buddies) that is running the Veteran’s Administration instead of the duly appointed civil service agency head. The last one apparently got fired because he disagreed with the troika lining their pockets. Look at the ProPublica website for the story “Shadow Rulers of the VA” and others. DDT drained the swamp, but filled the cesspool. What a stink! Ah, a judge is holding Jeff S in contempt. That should be an easy call.

8 August: Today is boring. DDT is quiet for a change. So what do we have? Some insider trading by Republican Representative Chris C (yawn), more Gates testimony (sigh), recount in Kansas (what does Dorothy think of that), and Omarosa secretly taped DDT (betrayed again). And the biggest news of the day, “Herd of 16 cows help Florida police corner a fleeing suspect”. Unless something interesting happens in the next 8 hours, that’s it!

7 August:  Apparently over 40% of interviewed Republicans want to give DDT the power to shut down the newspapers and TV that disagree or criticize him.  This goes along with T-shirst seen at a DDT rally, “I’d rather be Russian than a Democrat”.  OK. I’ve got the solution. Let’s have those noisome Republicans self deport to Russia. The rest of us would more reasonably govern the country, and the noisome Republicans who detest a free press would get what they want, since Putin has that very power.  Perhaps we should have independent fact checkers that would be able to shut down media that lied too many times in a day. I wonder who would get the axe (Fair and Balanced RIGHT! Foxy News).  Oh, and tricky Ricky (Gates) has testified how Manafort, and probable DDT, used Cyprus shell companies to cheat. Of course, in Greece cheating the tax collector was a national sport, so no foul there.  The problem there is that the information probably contains links to other rich cheaters.  Run DDT run.  Use your super powers and pardon yourself, and Paul M, Djr T, Michael C. and a host of others. Drain the biggest swamp in the history of the US. Glug Glug Glug. For you, DDT, the drain will swirl to the right.

6 August:   You might have guessed, our feckless leader has solved the California fire situation, "blaming California for the blazes because it “diverts” water to the Pacific Ocean"  Wow. those stupid Californians didn't realize that water helps put out fires. They probably didn't read the instruction manual on water and fire that the Greeks wrote 3000 years ago.  More later, that is if something happens. Well, not much that was unexpected happened, but it did happen. Gates (not Bill, but old tricky Ricky) laid it on his fellow alleged crooked partner - everything I did, said Gates, Manafort told me to do, except for the couple of hundred thousand I stole from him.  Nice guy. I've heard it said that he's just the crooked fellow you would want for a crooked partner in a crooked business. What's that old canard, "crooks of a feather flock together".  Must be an old duck story.

5 August:  Yes, there is an oncoming storm, but it’s not the secret Q conspiracy. Mueller’s investigation is showing that DDT really works for Hillary, the secret force behind the throne. This must be the case, since DDT as Q went mainstream on the Clinton controlled liberal fake news when the Q conspiracy discussion appeared on Sunday morning TV (MTP). Yes indeedydo, it’s the Hillary democrats that conspired with the Russians to elect DDT to clean up the swamp caused by greedy billionaires infesting the government. Is nothing sacred anymore? If we are going to have a good conspiracy theory, it should be confined to the true believers and not shared with the unwashed liberal left-leaning masses. Even though DDT said to “Lock Her Up”, you should realize the she’s out there still doing her evil deeds. Next thing you’ll know E. Warren will run for President, or one of HC’s hypnotized clones will run. How can we make America Great Again when we discovered that good American Chesapeake Bay crabmeat is polluted with foreign alien crabs just to save 14 million dollars that feed the coffers of a greedy corporation? DDT needs to put a tariff on fraud to save us from foreign crabs and interference in elections. After all, DDT says his son DDTjr getting dirt on HC from the Russians was “totally legal”. Of course it was, since the dirt was needed to save us from the evil HC. If HC had won, we would still have Obama care, cleaner air and water, no fantastic tariff war with Europe and China, and would have competent people running the government. Thank you Your Magnificence the Great Enricher of the Rich DDT that we avoided that awful fate. Oh, and where’s my new reduction in capital gains. Don’t just talk about it, ACT.  HC needs the money.

4 August:  Cute turn of phrase (Deadline Hollywood) “DDT’s Reign of Error”. It’s cute only as long as we can drop the T.  I worry that DDT’s thrashing around might really undermine (insert the T) the individual rights of Americans that we currently enjoy. But, then, today’s Obama Day, so let’s celebrate the saner past and have hope for the future.  Less than 100 days before a possible reckoning in November. Please vote, if you are a US citizen. Are DDT’s tweets obstruction?  Only the gods know and, perhaps, a good judge and jury.  Since it’s Obama day, I’ll focus my attention on a truly dignified capable president of the US, even when he promulgated some policies where I disagreed, then, and now in retrospect. He was always dignified, knowledgeable, and with a wonderful example of a “First Family”.

3 August:  Manafort is going down. His accountant just threw him under the bus and backed over him again by testifying that she was instructed to falsify loan amounts.  At what point is the M going to realize he has to cut a deal. DACA is back in DDT’s crosshairs, since a federal judge ordered him to restore DACA fully. DDT’s furious, since it will allow those teenaged criminals (students), who grew up in the US, to stay in the US. It’s terrifying to think that they might grow up to be productive citizens. DDT will save us. You can see how effective the policy is by today’s kicking out of the wife of a former US marine after she spent 20 years in the US.  In November, get off your couch and vote DDT’s jerks out.

2 August:  Too tired to write about all the junk emanating from DDT.  He’s back in campaign mode stoking the fires that destroy discussion between different viewpoints. One of his offspring is now claiming that the Democrat’s ideas parallel the nazi party of the 1930’s.  Where does this braindead offspring come from. Wait, it’s not his fault, it’s the DNA he inherited.  Finally, we have new medical plans that will not cost the middle class so much money. It’s perfect. You pay a relatively small amount of money each month to a giant corporation in exchange for medical coverage that pays for nothing. After all, if you get cancer, it must have been a pre-existing condition. It’s the old stay healthy or die quickly insurance. So Sad!

1 August: Tweet storm, danger danger Will Robinson. Run for cover. Got to get the old reprobate Sessions to fire that Mueller clown daring to ask DDT about obstruction. “Stop that Mueller probe right now!” Sigh!  More fake tweets. Rudi, “Put up or shut up. What do you got”. Gotta love that grammar.   Another day, another $200 billion (25% tariffs). Perhaps something real will happen tomorrow. Manafort is on trial, that's real. Three days for the prosecution to present their case, then he’ll throw his accountant under the bus for cheating the government so that he, Manafort, could buy all that expensive junk. He's like Scultz, "I know nothing, I see nothing, I hear nothing" in a faintly Ukranian accent. Lovely.

31 July: Jeff Sessions is forming a sort of religious police for the US to protect us from “dangerous secularism” all in the name of religious freedom. That is, the freedom to be Christian. Christian police who may tolerate you if you happen to believe something else, or perhaps not.  Nothing is wrong with Christianity, of course, but it may not be for everyone.  Ol’ Jeff is worried that someone with different ideas might move in next door.  Meanwhile DDT took a firm stand against 3-D printed guns – he’s gonna look into it and talk to the NRA. Wow, firm immediate action on a clear and present danger. Paul Manafort’s trial started today on charges of alleged tax evasion, hidden bank accounts, a teeny bit of  alleged fraud. DDT’s former campaign manager may wind up telling some interesting stories to Mueller. I’m not holding my breath. Oh yes, DDT went after one of his benefactors today, the Koch brothers who funded a great deal of his 2016 campaign win. The ultra-wealthy Libertarian Koch brothers don’t like those tariffs affecting their huge business. Libertarians are fun. Government is for little pepole. But, DDT proposed another tax cut for the middle class. He proposed indexing capital gains to inflation. Everyone knows that the middle and lower classes are salivating at the prospect of reduced taxes when they sell their hordes of stocks.  And, perhaps, just perhaps, there might be a few rich people that will benefit.  It was a nice day today, sunny and cool. At least something went right.

30 July:  Colluding or Conspiracy.  One is a crime (Conspiracy) and the other is nothing in legal terms. Neat. It fooled me.  DDT and crew have been alluding to Colluding (or lack thereof) while knowing full well that you can’t be harmed either way, since colluding is not a crime. Of course, conspiracy is indeed a possible crime, if the conspiracy is part of committing a crime or aiding in its planning.  Once this is understood, it puts a whole new light on the investigation.  DDT’s son should be shaking in his footwear (boots?). With the difference clearly explained, it makes Cohen’s tapes more exciting along with other testimony in the Mueller investigation. There’s a hole being dug under DDT, and he may fall into it screaming and flailing. Use your imagination. “Fake conspiracy, evil press, their out to get me,…  aaaargh”.  Breaking news!  If you are rich raise your hand for a handout.  DDT is proposing another tax cut only for the rich, and he thinks he can do it without congress. It's simple. He's reducing the calital gains tax.

29 July:  Here we go again. DDT is playing rope-a-dope by threatening to shut down the government unless he gets funding for his idiot wall with Mexico.  Nice diversion from the evidence that allegedly associates him with Russian collusion.  This is his standard tactic of diversion using threats on another subject. Hopefully, people will not be fooled this time.  Cohen appears to be ready to testify about what really transpired. You can see the panic in Rudi’s preposterous claims. One day Cohen is totally honest and the next he’s a liar according to Rudy G.  It’s getting closer. But, we should watch out. Is Pence any better, or is he just another racist person bent on establishing a theocracy?

28 July.  Took a break. It's more of the same. Now the big US Russia deal in Syria is coming apart. What a surprise.  Cohen tapes look like they are going to get DDT along with Cohen's testimony to Mueller.  Excited!   And Julien Assange will have to leave the Ecuadoran embassy.  Go Brits!  Arrest the buzzard.  I’ve heard it said that he’s part of the DDT conspiracy with Russia, I’m just saying. So sad.

25 July:  Ouch. The house republicans have a bill to impeach Rod Rosenstein, the assistant AG supervising Mueller. The result would be interference in the ongoing probe, and would create constitutional crises.  Even normal Republicans are cringing. Now DDT is arguing whether he said do  or don’t on the Cohen tapes. We are back to idiocy. I haven’t heard the tapes myself, but it should be possible to figure this one out.  Wait and see, while ignoring the obfuscation.  This is getting boring, we need action. C’mon Mueller. Gulliani allegedly lies, claims DDT is not an idiot. Is this news?

24 July: Only 12 billion for poor farmers hurt by the trade war. 12 billion is allmost real money.  How about a subsidy for poor Ivanka’s closing down of her dress business and perhaps a few dollars for the poor workers losing their jobs in the nail business (steel tariffs).  Those poor dopes staying loyal to DDT even though they are the dupes.I must admit, I have  little sympathy for them as they lose everyting to teach those foreigners a lesson. The lesson is clear. Fear the genius in the stable. Now he’s trying to sell the story that Russia wants the democrats to win.  Look look over there at the shiny object, don’t look at me.There’slots of shiny objects to be thrown out. DDT's good at this. Keep the chrn  going. Pity there are now adults in the room who are not paying attention to the distractions. 

23 July: DDT is the best again. New world records. He  has now denied his denials and agreements more times in a shorter period than a champion hotdog eater can eat hotdogs.  The world doesn’t yet realize the true nature of this head spinning championship performance. And, the world may never see another like it. Remember, this is a solo performance with his flacks only amplifying, but not originating. Think of the evil 3 H’s (clue seig heil) doing the same thing, but with help from staff.  Astounding.  “If you tell a lie enough times it will be believed as truth”. But, now it’s failing. The fake news media is gradually unmasking the facile philandering phoney.  DDT is now trying to undermine the Mueller probe because of the Cohen tapes that probably show the cheating chump he actually is. Those tax returns, I’ve heard people say, contain the clues to Russian support of his family fortune. I suspect that fear of the end is starting to percolate in that swiss cheesy brain. Remember, with DDT, the closer you get to the truth, the more he thrashes about laying waste to friend and foes alike. The worst thing you can be doing is working for such a wastrel. DDT always has your back,  if you are careless enough to expose your back, to stick a knife into it and twist.

22 July:  Finally the US gives a negative vote to (your favorite president  according to DDT) and Helsinki. Ha, Ha Ha…favorite nothing.  Just delusions to go along with the biggest inaugural crowd and the lie that it stopped raining the moment he started to speak.  TV showed that God kept the rain coming down telling everyone that DDT was all wet. So true, as we all have sadly come to realize of P’s lapdog. So awful.  So funny this week when DDT’s national security advisor on a TV interview did not even know that P was invited this autumn (“say again” “that’ll be special”, snicker snicker, sucker). Oh yeah, then there’s N.Korea and the really great agreement with Mr Un for “Peace in our time” that's not happening. Our Great Sucker can't negotiate his way out of a paper bag unless he's cheating. Now that DDT is confronted with professional cheaters, he's helpless.

20 July:  Another quiet day. The real comedians are still having fun. Check out Stephen Colbert. As I said, noting much happened. We have the Cohen tapes where DDT could be discussing paying off former Playboy model K. for an alleged affair. And, Putin has been invited to the White house just before the election. How dull.  Come on guys, let’s pick up the scandal pace. 

19 July:  Took the evening off for some fun and relaxation. No DDT for a few hours. Nice. Of course, the bad news kid keeps giving bad news. The people around DDT are totally confused as to which direction to look. We’ll have to wait to see what the secret dealings with P are about, if DDT can remember.  The usual stuff appears to have happened. DDT has appointed an incompetent to head the consumer protection agency, EPA has permitted the coal industry to foul drinking water with their ash ponds. And, amazingly the FCC appears to have blocked (for now) the Sinclair right wing propaganda group from taking over other newspapers and TV stations that could reach over 70% of US households.  That’s enough for today. So basically, it’s been a good day.

18 July:  DDT attacks Montenegro – those aggressive little devils that are just itching to start World War 3.  He launched 100 barely guided words at the little nation causing much consternation at the overly loud splats.  Good for DDT. He hit ‘em where it hurts. It’s pathetic the way he tried to walk back being Putin’s lap dog (sorry dogs). DDT couldn’t even make an apology for what could be alleged as treasonous. He had to double down in a defensive crouch, teeth bared and tail wagging. With that hairdo, it’s really hard to tell which end is which.  But the cave kids are acting noble and mature. That’s one really good piece of news. On the sexual front, Spain has discovered that “yes means yes”.  They’re still debating whether “no means no”.  It’s a hard problem, especially in the EU where even a banana has a book long definition. Even just knowing what yes means is  better than Clinton wondering about the meaning of “is”. 

17 July: We are saved.  He took it back. "Could be" was just a mental typo (brain fart) when he clearly meant "couldn’t be". I’m sure glad he cleared that up. When I listened to the press conference, and the replays, it was pretty clear he meant exactly what he said. Marylyn Albright (former secretary of state) called the retraction what it was – a bald faced lie. She said, “he must think we are all stupid”.  I suspect she is right on that too. Our “stable genius” probably does think he is the smartest person on Earth. Perhaps DDT's right. He’s the stable genius in the barn with all the other horses’ asses.   Let see if the limp congress does something about this national embarrassment and national danger. He’s Putin’s tool. DDT has disrupted Europe and encouraged Russia to cause further breaks in what was a stable alliance. Europe is acting appropriately, and cutting its own deals, such as the new trade deal with Japan. The US will pay a steep price eventually.

16 July: Now we have the official word from Helsinki from our feckless leader, DDT. “There is no reason for Russia TO MEDDLE IN US ELECTIONS”. I thought so all along. If you throw out all the collected evidence of meddling from the hapless intelligence services, then there is nothing left, plus Putin backs him up. So now, the preponderance of utterances should convince every person with a deplorable IQ, that there’s nothing there. Witch hunt, of course, found 17 alleged real “witches” (Russian intelligence and military people). Given what I know, one could allege treason on DDT. He always has been one for precedential (presidential – DDT spelling joke) firsts. Hypothesis is that Russia has damning information on his and his family’s financial dealings in Russia, or, just those famous alleged recordings from a Moscow hotel room. I believe the first, but perhaps it’s both, “I’ve heard that from other people, so I’m just saying”. Right hand raised with thumb and forefinger in a righteous circle plus a steely eyed scowl and small orange smirk. You'll have to take my word for it, "typing with one hand while the other is raised, as above, along with white teeth against a background of a small orange smirk". Allegedly, it's my best imitation.

15 July: What did we learn today. Not much that is useful, except that the EU is now our ‘foe” – yeah, those evil frenchies and gas (Russian) breathing Germans (led by a woman, no less). There’s not much to say. We are all holding our collective breaths to see what happens with the Putin meeting. What will DDT give away in exchange for a smile and handshake? Fox News thinks it’s a good thing. If they say it’s good, then it must be so, right? At least those evil frenchies won the World Cup. Go France! And, kids are being reunited with parents, Yes. DDT plays golf while Europe burns (at least their ears burn).

14 July: The Great B. Carson (former surgeon and now head of Housing and Urban Development) has just invented a new way to get people out of poverty. It's absolutely in line with DDT's ideas. He's raising the rent on poor, ederly and disabled people, saying that this will give them incentive to go find work and become decent self-supporting citizens. Wow. What an idea! It fits in with the Republican idea of medical care for the poor, the GSD plan (Get Sick and Die) to get people off of the welfare rolls. This should work the same way to reduce all those people dependent on government handouts. This is the GHD plan (Get Homeless and Die). There is a remarkable similarity in the plans, so the idiots should be able to take advantage of the synergy. Brilliant. Baby DDT flies again, but over Scotland. Britain and the US do have a special relationship after all, both recognize a self-serving, double-dealing, continuously-lying, self-declared genius.

13 July: You would think that everyone would recognize the standard tactic that DDT employs, namely attacking an individual where there are problems and then later reversing course. He then takes credit for the good results. The bottom line is that his promises are empty and subject reversal at any time if his convenience. There is no honor or ethics that DDT recognizes in his dealings, no regard for others, the symptoms of a truly sick personality, a sociopath. The interesting this is when he deals with another unscrupulous person, Kim of North Korea or Putin of Russia, he always loses. DDT is not smart enough to deal with those who don’t care what DDT thinks or says, but have their own agenda. Very sad and very dangerous for everyone. The shocking thing is that DDT is too wrapped in his own vainglory to even recognize the failures and dangers. At home , DDT is doing his best to destroy the institutions of democracy and the means of government needed to take care of those less fortunate than the upper classes. There are large numbers of working class people who support him because of this chauvinist racist views, plus his unwarranted attacks on public figures. These people are going to suffer when the economy turns down or when they need medical care or when they try to retire. There’s part of me that feels “go for it”, you deserve what you are going to get. However, there’s a lot of people who are going to get hurt who really need the support and have been bamboozled into voting for him and his toadies. For these people, I wish that this coming election in November will start to reverse the social insanity. Unfortunately, the packing of the courts with unsympathetic people will slow the restoring of balance to society. Data released today showed that the wage gains for working class people have now been wiped out by price inflation. This fits in with the statistics that a lot of working couples are holding more than two jobs just to make ends meet (food, housing, medical, etc.) and are just one $500 crisis away from insolvency. This is the reality of DDT’s “great economy”.

12 July: DDT used his standard tactic for getting attention, and everyone fell for it, shouting, lack of simple courtesy, threats, and bluster, and then finally, reversing course and taking credit for success even though he achieved nothing. Our European allies, who have so much at stake, did their best to placate the idiot. Today, he stiffed two NATO's leaders. Tomorrow the fun begins in England. There is not a lot to say right now, because after DDT's temper tantrum, he backed off and said we are all great friends again. We've got the Putin show coming up where they talk with no witnesses except the translators. Scary! Closer to home, we have the lawyer Cohen removed from his luxury jail cell into more plebian surroundings. No more bespoke jail suits. He can’t complain, the move was at his own request to cut down on his commute time. The question is will he sing a good song for his freedom? Good luck! Stormy’s lawyer is still playing the press and public opinion to take DDT down. Of course, the new proposed Justice does not believe that the president can be sued – He’s too busy. DDT would have to cut back on watching FOX news for advice on foreign and domestic policy.

11 July: Today the DDT is in Brussels demeaning his allies with taunts and threats (so becoming to a president of the US), while praising the dictator Putin. So far, nothing has happened that is of consequence. It’s sort of akin to watching the early scenes in “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf” with lots of shouting and belittling with only portents of doom. Of course, in the play, we know the outcome (not good), but in the current reality TV show with DDT, the outcome is not yet clear. Hopefully in the end, the story will be about the dog that did not bark, and nothing really bad will happen. There are at least a few countries that should be nervous, Estonia, Latvia, etc., Ukraine, and even most of Europe. The rise of populists and nationalism is ominous. We’ve seen this show before. NATO and the UN have given us over 70 years of peace in Europe, which the rise of nationalist populists may be threatening. The new disruption by DDT is not helping in the least and may cause further problems in England and Germany. Boris J in England is not what the world needs for stability, but DDT does like him, so perhaps he’ll forge a relationship that will benefit everyone, RIGHT! More, when the dog barks tomorrow, perhaps. The dog has not barked, but DDT certainly barked, barked at Germany (Russian gas woof woof) and England (Theresa May woof woof). But, in the end nothing happened, at least so far, except for Chinese tariffs and the stock market. On the home front, DDT is attacking health care for the poor and lower middle class, SAD and DUMB. When will his supporters realize that are victims of a scam. 

 10 July: We have a DDT nominated supreme court justice, Kavanaugh, to worry about. On the surface he's normal, that is, not corrupt. Dig a little deeper and he could be dangerous. His beliefs in presidential power could enhance DDT's ability to do damage to US democracy (think Turkey or Poland), not to mention his beliefs in the president’s freedom from being called into account by civil and criminal lawsuits. Women's rights - get out of here - back to barefoot and ... Well that's an exaggeration, but still it's a slippery slope. In 2016, women voted for a jerk along with an astounding fraction of educated males. Let's hope that in 2018 people come out and vote the bums out. The spineless Republicans are too enthralled in saving their political careers before saving the country - shameful. It is fear of a demagogue calling them names, plus the political money splashed against their campaigns by wealthy billionaires (Koch brothers and others of their oily ilk) and corporations (remember that the court ruled that corporations are people and that money is free speech. Tsk tsk said Obama with Justice Roberts outraged). Let’s see how the confirmation hearings go. Perhaps I will be surprised and the Senate will put country over personal comfort. Good news is that everyone is out of that cave alive and seemingly well. Amazing news is that the stock market is up and that more people are looking for work. This, in spite of the stupid trade war. Bmw just announced that it is moving jobs out of the US and into China. Way to go DDT. Tomorrow it's NATO and then his buddy Putin. God bless the Brits for the "Baby DDT Blimp" along with a new hit song "American Idiot". I just hope the diaper holds. Reading the news I notice the standard press and Democrats starting to shriek about Kavanaugh, while the Republicans slobber congratulations on their successful slimy plot to stymie Garlands nomination from Obama, while potentially getting another civil rights trampling justice. Vote, baby, vote the bums out in November. Is this blog slanted, you betcha.

9 July: Nothing much new today. It's an in-between day. DDT is claiming that Crimea should be part of Russia. Manchurian candidate? Is there a tape? I wonder. It was a good movie, but now a very bad reality show. Hopefully, November will put a stop to some of this. He's now screwing with government worker's pensions and job security (nothing new here). Let’s see if NATO still exists in effective form a week from now. Oh yes, Boris J has resigned, but Brexit still lives. Dumb on both sides of the Atlantic.

8 July: It's Sunday, so it is fairly quiet in the news. Four boys rescued from the flooded cave (good news). North Korea is calling everyone gangsters - nothing new there. DDT's superb negotiating skills with North Korea, he says he is the best in the world, should be good enough for a peace prize. Our liar-in-chief knows no limits on hubris using all 2 digits of his IQ. DDT's attorney of the moment, good old Rudi G, is at it again railing against the evil Mueller "his probe of the Putin connection is highly suspect". I can't wait for the Mueller report to either condemn the fool or exonerate him. Either way, we can get back to the business of voting Republicans out of office in November to slow the evil dunce down. Oh, I forgot, DDT's back to destroying medical care for the poor and middle class by removing the government's help to insurance companies - so what if the help is required by law. Laws are only for little people as he cites the well-known legal principle, "L'Etat c'est moi". (Désolé Macron) DDT better bake a lot of cake. The cake could be used by the thousands of children he's lost after separating them from their parents at the border with Mexico. Those "murders and rapists" - you can tell because they have brown skin and speak Spanish. If only Maximilian I had succeeded, then they would speak French and bake baguettes, and all would be well (désolé encore, Macron).  Not everything is DDT's fault in the western world. How are we doing with the bloviating Boris Johnson and timid Lisa M (DDT's friends) and the looming Brexit?  We can count on DDT to save the day for jolly old England with a knockout trade deal, at least for his money pit Scottish golf course (minus $200 million and counting - pure genius). He's also put in for an exemption to get hispanic extra low wage workers for his Marred a Lago (sp) club in Florida.

7 July: DDT is about to travel to Europe to participate in a NATO review. If he is up to his past performance, expect belittling of his European partners on top of the destructive tariffs he recently imposed. This is closely followed by a meeting with Putin where "God knows" what unwarranted concessions he will make at Europe’s expense. At the very least, he will probably let Putin off the hook for Ukraine. I know, when it comes to DDT, making predictions is a fool's errand.  At least we got rid of DDT's tool, Pruitt.  One can hope that his successor will be more protective of the environment, but I have little hope for a former lobbyist for the coal industry. At least he won't be an arrogant deceitful leech on the US taxpayer.

6 July: For many of you, I need not tell you of the danger of a shrewd but dumb president of the US. As of this writing, DDT is working on wrecking the US and European economies with the imposition of mindless tariffs on our friends (Europe, Mexico, and Canada) and a competitor (China). That, plus threatening our partners in mutual defense.
