The Bastardized President-Elect: Ties to The American Nazi Party

adolf-hitler_trump

letter-d-icon-png-33ear readers, do not be fooled by the complacency media is showing after the devastating news that Herr Drumpf won the Electorate. It is not a lack of common sense these alleged reporters, or rather talking heads, are displaying. This is purposeful, and with a cloaked malice of intent and it seems the Trump Train is getting more crowded than ever as more and more formerly trusted individuals and organizations have purchased their boarding passes – all vying to be the fortunate favorite.

Major news networks are still in the process of normalizing this bastardized president-elect, his racist cohorts, and close and very shady cronies. Mainstream televised media is no longer to be trusted as sources of truth as they have long ago fallen with ease and without regret into the Führer’s designer hip pocket.

Even someone who others thought would be a bulwark against Herr Drumpf has one foot on the train. Bernie Sanders, who should have been a relentless support of the Democratic Candidate, has begun to show his true colors. USA Today posted an article about Sanders’ speech to supporters in Boston this past Sunday.

“It is not good enough for somebody to say, ‘I’m a woman, vote for me.’ No That is not good enough,” the Vermont senator continued. “What we need is a woman who has the guts to stand up to Wall Street, to the insurance companies, to the drug companies, to the fossil fuel industries.”

A very revealing remark indeed, as it is historical fact Hillary Clinton has done those very things, but Sanders – the turncoat he is – blatantly disregards Clinton’s efforts. Welcome to the 4th Reich, Bernie. 

sticker220x200-bgffffff-pad220x200ffffff-u3On November 20th, in a Federal Building owned by the United States Government, and named after staunchly anti-communist, anti-fascist President Ronald Reagan, Nazis met to celebrate the win of Herr Drumpf, and discuss plans for the future. After several hours of speeches, and despite claiming Blacks and Hispanics had nothing to fear, truth finally struggled through the lies and revealed itself. Richard Spencer rose to speak and went into a long tirade quoting Nazi Propaganda along with a blithering rant about Jews. Spencer went on to claim America belonged to whites – children of the sun, and that Herr Drumpf had awakened their identity. In. A. Federal. Building.

According to Mother Jones, Spencer likens race as akin to breeds of dogs.

“Race is something between a breed and an actual species,” he says, likening the differences between whites and people of color to those between golden retrievers and basset hounds. “It’s that powerful.” 

It was Spencer who coined the term “Alt-Right” back in 2008, and claims it is the only movement in America that, “gives a damn about white Americans.” He also is fond of slurring conservatives as “cuckservatives,” and hopes America’s people of color can be convinced to return to the countries of their ancestors.

“It’s like presenting to an African that this hasn’t worked out,” he says. “We haven’t made each other happier. We are going to have to take part in this paradigmatic shift together.”

For the full article on this American Nazi, go to Mother JonesI guarantee it will be eye-opening to say the least; especially that little tidbit of a top Drumpf advisor who once helped Spencer with fundraising for an on-campus event…

“It’s funny no one’s picked up on the Stephen Miller connection,” Spencer says. “I knew him very well when I was at Duke. But I am kind of glad no one’s talked about this because I don’t want to harm Trump.”

With the exception of former Governor of Vermont Howard Dean calling Herr Drumpf’s chief strategist pick, Bannon, a “nazi,” there’s been nothing. Weak responses, and even weaker resistance to the new Nazi Machine set to take over the White House, doesn’t fulfill the rightful destiny of a free America. Not a single Democrat in the Senate has called this travesty what it really is – not one. This is the rise of Nazism in American Politics. It is NOT the alt-right. It is Nazism. For Nazis, of Nazis, and by Nazis. 

Nazis have been in America for decades. They didn’t just pop up out of the ground. We knew they were there and in plain sight. They’ve been here since shortly after World War II, and they were headquartered in Arlington, Virginia – just across the border from D.C. From the website, it appears they are currently located in Michigan. It was founded as World Union of Free Enterprise National Socialists (WUFENS), but renamed American Nazi Party in 1960.

More than 700 plus instances of hate crimes since November 8th, and no sincere efforts on Herr Drumpf’s part to quell the attacks, gives us confirmation this political hack has no intention of parting ways with his racist demagoguery. Any other winner of an election would have spoken out clearly, and emphatically against crimes committed in his or her name for the glorification of a despised ideology. This is what people fought against and died for during the second world war, and yet those sacrifices have been blithely kicked to the curb.

trump-nation-white-only

With all the clear evidence of The Monster of Manhattan’s ties to white supremacists and Nazis, we should have understood this ideology was more firmly entrenched within our society, and now with this crooked potentate just days from an honored position of power, we can only hope America can pull a rabbit out of its collective ass. That miracle could be the power of the Electoral Vote. A Petition has been gathering millions of signatures for the Electorates to do the right thing. If you haven’t signed, sign it now. We have until December 19th to save this nation from a catastrophe. 

Comey, Comey, Comey, Chameleon

If not for the seriousness of this election, the premise of this story could have made for a political soap opera – a cross between Dallas, and The West Wing. Everyday, a new episode is guaranteed to turn the stomach. Would we call it, “As the Stomach Turns,” or “J.R. goes to Washington,” or, “An American Psycho in D.C.?” Simply put, Republicans and Trump spox are literally pulling ideas, the more outrageous the better, out of their collective butts.

james_comey-01

Now we have another plot twist starring James Comey, Director of the F.B.I. This man, who only weeks ago repeatedly decreed Hillary Clinton was not guilty of any wrong doing. Now, he is ready to condemn her. This is such a sudden change in direction, it makes one wonder why someone who is versed in protocol would even do such a thing – much less consider it. Mr. Comey has changed in order to match the background of this campaign much like a chameleon does. Unfortunately for this G-man, he didn’t blend in very well and sticks out like a sore thumb.

Little John LaValle, a Trump surrogate and New York Republican Party regional chairman said, while attempting to defend Comey, something extremely remarkable while making an appearance on CNN.

“She’s buried and Comey had to come forward to even the tables. She ran around this country telling everyone “I was cleared,” said the RNC chairman.

To even the tables? Seriously, this man may have blurted out something he shouldn’t have – something that could make him complicit should there be an investigation of the inappropriate handling of information found on devices seized from Abedin and Weiner. Yes, this morning a warrant was sought for and obtained, but that still doesn’t mean Mrs. Clinton, or Huma Abedin, or even pervy Anthony are guilty of anything – well Weiner is guilty of sending dick pics to underage girls…

Another disturbing tidbit I discovered recently is that Donald Trump has a lot more at stake than just the pleasure of sitting in the Oval Office. I learned that Trump owns $15,000 to $50,000 of shares in Energy Transfer Partners – the guys trying to destroy the Sioux way of life and the ecosystems along the DAPL.phillips-66-logo The Monster of Manhattan also has a bigger investment and owns $150,000 to $200,000 worth of stocks in Phillips 66, who in turn just happens to own a considerable chunk of the Dakota Access Pipeline. Considerable chunk as in 1/4 of the 1,172-mile pipeline.

 

The CEO of Energy Transfer Partners, Kelcy Warren donated $3,000 to Trump’s campaign, gave $100,000 to a committee that supports the GOP candidate, and another $67,000 to the Republican National Committee. Trump’s involvement with DAPL is a tremendous conflict of interest for anyone seeking the White House. Methinks something is rotten in Denmark.

If Trump makes it to the White House, he can in effect, push DAPL through, and kick the Sioux to the curb. At least Trump would be keeping with white tradition of fleecing Native Americans out of house, home, and liberty to live as they please – this is 2016, and it shouldn’t even be thought of. But money rules over lives, wildlife, and even the well-being of Mother Earth.

This very well could be a mitigating factor as to why many GOP simply never wanted to put the brakes on the Trump Train. Perhaps they too have a monetary interest in seeing the pipeline through to completion, and that includes possibly Comey, Chaffets, and Little John LaValle, among many others who have let the Orange-one get away with so much. Anyone with a smattering of reasonable intelligence can put two and two together and come up with corruption between big oil, big corp, and government officials. And another thing – don’t believe it when Trump says he’s a Washington outsider. For over 30 years the man has been playing Washington like a fiddle. One doesn’t simply arrive on the scene and have the kind of reputation Donald Trump has.

Perhaps Director Comey unwittingly did us a favor by jumping the gun, and possibly violating the Hatch Act. Already Sen. Harry Reid sent a letter blasting Comey for his, “partisan actions.” Reid also believes the F.B.I. has been sitting on damning information about Trump having close ties, and in collusion with the Russian government.

Despite Trump’s denial of dealing with Russia, Donald Jr., spilled the beans:

“Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets,” Trump’s son, Donald Jr., told a real estate conference in 2008. “We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”

In 2013, just a mere 3 years ago this month, Donald Trump admitted to having a relationship with Vladimir Putin, and yet the man continually denies knowing the Russian despot.

So, yeah. It is a good thing to give scrutiny to the F.B.I. after Comey’s daring stunt because if the agency withheld vital information about the short-fingered vulgarian’s international hi-jinks, the American people have a right to know. We should demand it, and see what’s there. After all, even the GOP, the F.B.I., and even Mr. Comey himself work for the citizenry, as do others. We pay their salaries, and we are tired of the chameleons that inhabit D.C. Maybe Americans should give the pink-slip to them all and say, “You’re fired!”

 

 

Nie Wieder

orleans-in-ruins

t-letterhe year is 1939.

The setting, Germany. Newsreels project images on the screens in movie theaters, crowds surround the Führer. Everyone is enthusiastic because of the message. To their ears the message delivers hope, and a future filled with enormous opportunity. The Führer tells them exactly what they want to hear, and the frisson of excitement thrills them beyond what the human mind is normally capable of comprehending. All they know is this is the time, the moment is right, and Germany will at long last recover the face it lost during the last war.

hitlerfistsThe man is not much to look at as he is rather ordinary, but his voice is mesmerizing. The people lean forward, anxious to hear his next utterance. What he says is shocking, but the herd mentality of the gathering quickly subdues the shock, and they lean a little closer. How dare those Jews, those intruders, take our jobs we so struggle to get? How dare those Poles selfishly hold onto a vast land that could be ours for the taking? They don’t appreciate it; the wonderous resources that would give work to the German father, husband, breadwinner. We could simply relocate these foolish wasteful people, if they are people, to another place that would be more useful to them.

Again, the Führer raises his voice to full cry and says something else just a little more shocking, but this time he adds to it the desire to regain former lands Germany had to cede after the first defeat. The crowd goes wild with fervor. Soon, the Führer says, soon we will be better than ever. Germany will be great again, and no one will dare spoil our right to happiness, safety, and economic prosperity – purity of race.

A few years later, the Führer is dead. Germany is defeated once more – this time it is devastating. Now, the Allied nations, those Americans, British and their “friends” have invaded Germany. The people are angry, wounded that their Führer no longer stands between them and these mongrels. But what is going to happen? Will they be subject to another ruler? Will they lose all rights? Will they be killed? Taken prisoner?

They gasp. American soldiers arrive in their villages. They are made to board trucks by the dozens. The smell is faint at first, and grows in intensity with each bump in the road. Through a gate, and finally the trip is over. Men, women, town officials make faces of disgust as the stench fully hits their nostrils – what is it? A short march, a pile of skin covered skeletons, eyes staring into nothingness, grotesque postures, and gaping mouths – many had lost their teeth from starvation. buchenwald01

No! We don’t want to see this! It’s too real! Mein Gott! It’s too much – too much – too much! We can’t bear it! Who did this! Why?

You did, say the American soldiers. You did this. You didn’t stop it, so we stopped it for you. Now you have to live with what you have done – what you allowed to happen. Look and believe.

The wailing, retching and sounds of vomitus spattering the ground did not bring one soul back from the tangle of starved, and now decaying bodies – nor did the muffled regrets coming from behind wadded handkerchiefs held tightly over noses and mouths. Eyes streaming from the noxious odors, they stumble through the camps as they are forced to observe and comprehend what their hateful hearts and blind obedience have wrought. Some collapse in shame and tears, others set their jaws and refuse to look right or left – only stare into some unknown distance.

But there are those who finally understand the Führer and his wildly confusing words was nothing more than a mere shadow-show meant to confuse – intended to perpetually keep the populace off-balance with ever-changing subjects and messages. Words meant to distract from the real Führer – the one who wanted to destroy an entire race because of some sort of pent-up anger over a perceived wrong. The real Führer wanted to punish, and rule with an iron fist – to make the world fall to its knees before him, and him alone – the people were only a means to an end.

A thought came. Unbidden it flitted through the minds of thousands – tens of thousands of Germans. The thought was: I’ve never really been harmed by a Jew, and they usually minded their own business. Where was the threat? Was it because the Führer said it so many times, that I began to believe it? Together they cried out to the heavens, “Nie wieder!”

The year is 2016. trump-fists

The setting: A shadow-show in The United States of America.

Will we too have to stumble through the terror as we weep and cry out to the heavens, “Never again?”

 

 

The Neverending Emails

hillary-shimmy

Just when I thought I was done with blogging for the day, a Win10 notification popped up on my screen – “New Emails in Clinton Case Came From Devices Once Used by Weiner.”

bush-weiner

Well – what can I say? This election year has been a doozy. The odds of the combination of Billy Bush and Anthony Weiner is just is too good to be believed. I guess I will call this the “Weiner/Bush Affair.” As ridiculous as it may be, fate somehow lends humor to nearly any situation. Apparently, Anthony Weiner just can’t think straight on any given day because Super Secret Agent Hosepipe just gets in the goldanged way.

With that in mind, Donald Trump has jumped on this like a duck on a June Bug. “We must not let Hillary take her criminal scheme into the Oval Office.”

Unfortunately Donald Trump and his band of histrionic Trumpanzees don’t seem to realize that Hillary Clinton has been the most investigated person in Washington, D.C., and not been found criminally liable in any instance – with the exception of not minding the kitchen and baking cookies.

James Comey, Director of the FBI, sent a letter to Congress:

comey

These emails were allegedly found after devices were confiscated from Huma Abedin, a top Clinton aide, and her husband Anthony Weiner. The letter sent to Congress does not in any way clarify what these emails are and in what way they impact the Presidential candidate. However, being not one to back down from a challenge, our woman of the year Hillary Clinton, has called on the Federal Bureau of Investigation to immediately release the “full and complete” facts in regards to the investigation of Mrs. Clinton’s private server. If someone has something to hide, surely they would start balking instead of encouraging a full disclosure – unlike The Monster of Manhattan who has yet to release his tax returns.

James Comey’s public comments are an abuse of power, and a violation of the public trust – the three paragraph letter conveniently sent just 11 days before this crucial election reeks of betrayal, and a desperate bid by the Trump Campaign to over-take Clinton’s lead in the polls. Without any information, right-wing nut jobs are sure to run wild with elaborate conspiracy theories designed to incite those of limited intelligence.

enquirer2

To be sure, the FBI better get its act together or they could themselves be complicit in attempts to sway the election with this cloudy, and unclear reason for reopening the investigation.

 

 

 

Money, money, money…

hillary-closeupEverything was copacetic until Bill Clinton appointed the First Lady to head a Task Force for Health Care Reform. The GOP went into panic mode over the very thought of a woman removing herself from the role patriarchy set for her and challenging the established order of mutual back scratching between big pharma, big insurance, and House & Senate Republicans. Some say this election is based on gender. It is only partially that but the main cause of their displeasure is the threat to financial gains. It started with monied interests, and still has to do with monied interests and who exactly reaps the benefits of corruption in government.

fdr_in_1933

 

When Franklin Roosevelt proved to America, and to the world, the Democratic party could and would be the champion of the people, the Republican elites swore this would not happen again. It was bad enough their GOP president Hoovered the United States economy plunging the nation into a horrific calamity of economic depression and starvation with his careless stewardship of the Oval Office, but it was worse when FDR repaired this nation, and led it through a catastrophic war. The Republican party had lost face.

With the rise of another Democratic leader who has been vilified for decades; who has survived the onslaught of lies that if she had been a man, would never have happened to this degree, Republicans are still trying to save face. But, there is no honor among thieves. The GOP and big corporate see money as a priority over gender, race, or the well-being of the populace and in turn use gender, race, and well-being of said populace as a cover for their lust of the almighty dollar.

Had corporate, big insurance, and big pharma never entered into an unholy pact with sitting GOP’s, there never would have been an outcry of false criminal activity. Yet, blatant and bald-faced crimes of morality, and financial bobbing and weaving are tolerated in a man who is known to be involved with characters of unsavory fortunes and backgrounds – and thus precious to them and must be protected at all costs – even if that cost is the demise of their own ideology.

no-daplThis unholy pact is based on big oil manspreading over the pristine lands of North Dakota and a ruinous project called DAPL, of which the egoist Donald Trump has an interest in. If this Monster of Manhattan wins the presidency, he stands to reap enormous profits from the completion of this pipeline. His potential Energy Adviser, Harold Hamm of Continental Resources, is hand-in-glove with the alleged billionaire who happens to worship the idol of the Gold Standard.

This in itself would be a conflict of interests by both Trump and Hamm, but as the orange-one has shrugged off many wrongs committed, this too will be shrugged off and funneled into off-shore accounts buried by mazes and misleading paper trails. Monied interests will rule the free world as ecosystems will perish from this earth, and The People will be forced to leave their lands. There is no good in water slicked with oil.

Monsanto, Exxon, Tyson, Pilgrim’s, U.S and AK Steel, Koch Industries, Phillips, Continental Resources, and others all have an interest in seeing an empty suit sitting in the oval office, and Hillary Clinton has always been a threat to that goal. Even during the Bush years, millions were made, though the GOP viewed no perceived conflicts of interest – just the conflict of gaining access to foreign oil fields, and the conflict of dead soldiers returning in flag draped caskets, and the conflict of imaginary WMD’s.

Most wars have been based on grabbing land for resources with a fortune made as the end result amid a genocidal slaughter – be the dead be man or beast, or both. The Republican party is not the party of the protectors of the people, but the party of the protectors of fortunes to be had despite the cost.

220px-bill_kristol_by_gage_skidmore

“The long-term effect of a successful health care bill will be even worse – much worse. It will revive the reputation of Democrats as the generous protector of Middle-class interests. And it will at the same time strike a punishing blow against Republican claims to defend the Middle-class by restraining government.” William Kristol, December 1993 “Defeating President Clinton’s Health Care Proposal.”

There cannot be a prosperous society unless it is cared for by its government – for there will always be the poor and underprivileged among us that need that boost to rise above their circumstance. If government withdraws in on itself, then that government abandons the helpless and needy in favor of the top-tier of society. A small government means a ruling class political machine geared to protect the monied interests of the smallest segment of the populace – the wealthy. There is no trickle down to the masses – only more hardship, more worry, and more struggle for a life worth living. However, there is a solution by putting aside self in favor of country. By seeing the propaganda for what it is – by simply having faith and taking a chance in the woman who pissed off Washington for over 30 years.

Path of Darkness

battleofgettysburgToday, Donald John Trump spoke at Gettysburg. As an amateur historian, I am completely offended. As a human being, I am appalled. The men who fought courageously on both sides of the Civil War from July 1st to the 3rd of 1863 have had their sacrifices sullied by the insidiousness of Mr. Trump’s vow to pursue a legal vendetta against the women that have come forward with convincing claims of sexual abuse. If you remove the ideologies from both sides thus making these long-dead soldiers only human, these men faced death, destruction, and horror of a magnitude that was never seen before or since on American soil. Donald Trump brazenly danced on their graves. The man used their bones, the bones of an estimated 51, 116 human beings, as a stage to reinforce his no-holds-barred aggression, subversion, and fascist principles. Even his tie is a subliminal message of conflict – notice the blue and the grey.

trump-in-gettysburg

Everyday, no matter the time or the place, the very moment Trump opens his mouth something reprehensible falls out and spatters whomever, and whatever unlucky enough to be nearby. Many of us cringe and try to sidestep the steaming clots of manure, while others gleefully roll in it and act as if they are having the time of their lives. Perhaps – they are.

There is nothing, apparently, in the mind of The Monster of Manhattan that he holds sacred for he tarnishes everything that is good, and wholesome in America. Many do not admire Ronald Reagan, but at least the former president believed the United States was a shining city on a hill, and Trump has done his deal level best to tear that example asunder. What is there left of America that this wannabe dictator hasn’t managed to leave a greasy orange stain upon?

Even this tan-in-a-can despot has spread a stinking rot to the very core of our Constitution when he defiantly stated he would not honor the results of this election. Why someone who has been proven time and again of being vengeful and devious in nature been allowed to announce and run for office is beyond the ken of many Americans. The fault lies on the hands of well-known Republicans, and still they support Trump by their echoing silence. Mr. Trump is fond of claiming that only he, and he alone can save America, but he is wrong. It will be up to Americans to save this nation from a corrupted and self-admitted sexual predator whose only pretense at patriotism was avoiding STD’s.

dark-path-2

We the People of the United States will have to take matters into our own hands as our Republican majority government will not. We can do this by casting out this orange wannabe dictator with our ballots. In the future, we must guard against this sort of rogue candidate who puts self before country, and who elevates the violent dregs of society. Mr. Trump likes the word vetted – so do I. All future candidates must be thoroughly and openly vetted by non-partisan federal investigators. If we don’t, we may be dragged kicking and screaming down the same path of darkness again.

Obituary For a Party

picking-cotton_va

Prior to the Civil War, Democrats were the party of slavery, cotton, and secession. The Republican Party under Abraham Lincoln hadn’t really grown into its fullness until faced with defiance from Southern Democrats. The South would have rather seen this relatively new nation torn asunder in order to hang onto an antiquated single-crop economy that could only survive with the enforced labor of black slaves, and the argument over State vs. Federal rights – which again looped back to the rights of states to keep slaves.

In the 1860’s The Grand Old Party favored expansion of federal powers and provided federal aid for the Transcontinental Railroad, for state universities, and for homestead expansion in the west. Democrats were furious, and in vain vigorously opposed the radical idea. During the years of Reconstruction, the differences between the two parties were even more glaring with the creation of the Department of Justice, and the passage of the 14th Amendment, and the Civil Rights Act of 1866, once again harshly fought against by the Democrats. By the time the 1870’s came along, ideologies of both parties were distinctly clear.

By 1896, the Democratic Party fused with The People’s Party and William Jennings Bryan flashed onto the scene advocating that social justices should be a priority for the federal government, and Bryan became the 41st Secretary of State under Woodrow Wilson. Congress was still mostly Democratic and passed a slew of Bryanesque legislation, including the Federal Income Tax, and the Federal Reserve.

FDR_in_1933.jpg

The next to stir things up was staunch Democrat Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He came from a family of loyal Republicans, but felt by embracing the Democratic Party, he could do so much more. So, somewhere between the years of 1913 and 1933, the Democratic Party evolved into a more inclusive party – one that considered all citizens as part of the greater whole. The Republican Party did not immediately change overnight into one that promoted smaller government – it took a few years. The change began in the 1920’s when Coolidge was in office and Republicans began to push for withdrawing government in on itself, and did not gel into a form of political opposition until FDR came into office and basically saved the nation from the ravages of The Great Depression to the chagrin of the Republicans.

Why the evolution of one party and the devolution of the other isn’t quite clear in the reasoning, but the social consciousness of the Democratic Party has been in place 83 years, and seems to be flourishing well. The GOP is no longer a political arm of the people, but an extension of big corporate, and the self-interest of those elected to basically represent business. It has long given up the pretense of concern for the well-being of the common person. Conservatives claim to be in support of Pro-Life, but the reality is the GOP is only interested in Pro-Birth in order to satisfy evangelicals who pass the collection plate for politics. The Republican Party has devolved so much from what they were, they no longer burden themselves with government of, by, and for the people, but focus on of, by, and for the corporate.

crying

From the very moment, Donald John Trump announced his candidacy on June 16, 2015, the Republican party has been suffering a lingering death. These last two months, it has been a literal death struggle for Republicans. The potential Orange dictator may well have single-handedly murdered the once honorable Grand Old Party of Lincoln. What comes from the ruins, we can only speculate but it’s a sure bet to say that even Mr. Lincoln himself might approve of putting it out of its misery.

 

 

The State of Denial

2016-03-13t194555z_1_lynxnpec2c0h7_rtroptp_3_usa-election-trump-800x430

One thing that is consistent with the Orange one, and that is his ability in the art of denial. This brings me to another realization, the state of denial his followers are in. I’m hoping it will be in the least, like that of the 5 stages of grief where people go through denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally acceptance. But – I’m beginning to wonder if it really boils down to a form of mental illness, or a learning disability. I’ve seen friends in real life and on social networks try to calmly reason, point out known facts, and even simplify said facts. It does no good – in a few cases it does, but mostly the discussion goes down the toilet amid name-calling, accusations, threats and blocking. The name-calling, threats, and accusations mainly from those supporting the irrational Donald Trump, and blocking from frustrated HRC advocates.

cbs-news

My wondering about these people have given me serious pause. I’ve never before witnessed human beings not able to reason, and come to rational conclusions without interjecting violence, threatening harm, citing wild conspiracy theories, or simply going off the deep end. With the “leak” of the Hollywood Access tape, and sexual assault victims coming forward – even audio and video of Donald Trump lusting after prepubescent girls including his own daughter, these people affirmed they stand by their man. They refuse to ask for proof, or have any doubt. They are not offended. They go out of their way to show it even in the vulgarest of terms and say, “Boys will be boys.”

c-word-tee

I even saw a Facebook post today by someone comparing Trump to Jesus Christ, “I’m one of the 10% who believe Trump, and I’m going to stand up for him. Remember, no one believed Jesus either.”

What. In. The. Hell. Is. Going. On?

Men, women, first-time voters – are determined to go down with the SS Trumptanic, and – seriously folks, these people need care. It’s either genetic, a developmental disorder, or sliding by in the educational system.

We can’t suggest, or even invite them to seek help because we’d be labeled as dictators by the very ones supporting a wannabe American dictator – which would be another shit-storm indeed. So how to deal with it? How to deal with people who take each and every word the tan-in-the-can candidate says as literal fact and gospel? I have no freakin’ idea. These are humans who go about everyday lives, they work ordinary jobs, have the same feelings as everyone else, send their kids to school, drive cars, buy guns…

Today, Trump blasted away with anti-Semitic ramblings, still insisting Clinton be jailed despite governmental records showing no guilt whatsoever, blamed the first female presidential candidate for the indiscretion of her husband, claiming total innocence of sexual assault because the victim was too ugly, and dog-whistled for his followers to commit sedition against the United States should he fail to win the White House. Still, these placard-waving fanatics clamored for more. They haven’t stopped to think – wait, what? Did he say sedition? Did he suggest he wouldn’t molest a woman because she was too homely, but he’d go for it otherwise?

After this election is done and over with, we as a nation have to have a dialogue of some kind to discuss the failure of educational systems. Not recognizing that there were those that got left behind and were not taught how to reason and deduce – let alone taught to understand is a preventable failure. We cannot let this happen again in the future, even though we are fighting for that future at this very moment. Society, especially this one, may not be able to take a second hit like this from another babbling and nearly incoherent candidate and equally obtuse sycophants.

 

The St. Louis Stalker

Resentful stalkers pursue a vendetta because of a sense of grievance against the victims – motivated mainly by the desire to frighten and distress the victim.

capture

Women know what it is like to be followed by a male as she’s walking down the street, or driving somewhere. It’s not a nice feeling. It shakes your reality. Your heart pounds, your hands tremble. The fight or flee instinct enters the foreground. Most women would rather put distance between themselves and the stalker – I know I did years ago when I needed to change lanes or miss my exit. Mr. Half-Ton pickup chased me off my exit, down Gaston Avenue, to Garland Road. We were both speeding. I had to. He tried his best to ram the back of my car, but I knew the neighborhood, and he didn’t. My senses were heightened, and when it was over I was shaking like a leaf. I was 22 and had just left the hospital after visiting my grandmother who had just went through a quadruple bypass.

 

Most men are decent hardworking fellows who would rather cut off their right testicle than take sexual advantage of a woman, or besmirch her character with foul language and rumors. They have too much self-respect to do otherwise and are quick to stop those that do. Unfortunately it is the ones who do harm that garner all the attention in the press that sometimes, either by accident or design, wrongfully paint all men with the same broad brush. Again, a man has been zeroed in upon by the press, and this time the entire world is anxiously watching. Outtakes from Access Hollywood, featuring Donald Trump, have been leaked to the Washington Post by an anonymous source. The footage shot in 2005, contains audio of the Monster of Manhattan describing in graphic language, the admission of sexual assault upon women he considered attractive enough to warrant his unwanted advances. Let me reiterate, the language is foul slang, and disrespectful and we’ve all heard them at one point in our lives – it is the words of admission of sexual assault that should concern everyone.

“I’m automatically attracted to beautiful women — I just start kissing them, it’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything,” Trump said in the 2005 conversation with Billy Bush. “Grab ’em by the pussy.”

“I moved on her actually, she was down in Palm Beach and I failed. I’ll admit it. I did try to fuck her, she was married … and I moved on her very heavily,” Trump is heard saying.”I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture and I told her ‘I’ll show you where you can get some nice furniture,’ I moved on her like a bitch, and I could not get there, and she was married. And all the sudden I see her and she’s got the big phony tits, she’s totally changed her look.”

At the time, Trump was newly married to Melania Knauss, who was pregnant with their son, Barron.

Candidate Trump released a video “apology,” which wasn’t an apology of remorse as he reverted back to the Clinton’s to redirect attention from himself. Prior to the 2nd presidential debate, Trump performed for the cameras again via Facebook live. In it, he had in attendance 3 women who claimed Bill Clinton raped them.

Paula Jones: Sued President William Jefferson Clinton for sexual harassment that precipitated Clinton’s impeachment in the House of Representatives and the subsequent acquittal by the Senate on February 12, 1999. Charges of perjury and obstruction were brought against Clinton, and the court dismissed the case as Jones could not provide evidence of damages. While the case was on appeal, Clinton settled out of court with Jones for $850,000. It was settled to get Jones to drop the appeal.

Juanita Broaddrick: In a written sworn statement made under oath in 1997 with the placeholder name “Jane Doe #5,” Broaddrick filed an affidavit with Paula Jones’ lawyers stating there were unfounded rumors and stories circulating “that Mr. Clinton had made unwelcome sexual advances toward me in the late seventies… These allegations are untrue

Kathleen Willey: Willey has a history of controversial claims including telling her boyfriend she was pregnant and she had a miscarriage when she did not. On the evening of March 19, 1998, Julie Hiatt Steele, a friend of Willey, released an affidavit, accusing the former White House aide of asking her to lie to corroborate Ms. Willey’s account of being sexually groped by President Clinton in the Oval Office.

Now with three allegations, they all can be seen to be unfounded. However we do know of Ms. Lewinsky’s escapades with the former President, and that is public knowledge of admission on both sides. The affair is neither here nor there in regard to Hillary Clinton’s fitness to be Commander-in-Chief.

In defense of himself, Mr. Trump decided it would be a good thing to bring up dirt, that actually wasn’t dirt, but right-wing propaganda. Bill Clinton is not running for president, Donald John Trump is and that is what matters. While waiting his turn during the debate, Trump’s aggressive posturing in close proximity of Mrs. Clinton can only be construed as resentful stalking meant to intimidate the Democratic candidate for what he feels to be offenses made toward him. It is obvious he has used this tactic before to shake those he has honed in on, and that gives pause as to how far the St. Louis Stalker would go.

This excuse of a candidate personally elevated his rabid followers chant of “lock her up,” to policy by saying he would have her jailed. This would be illegal to use the power of the White House for retribution. It is what Putin, Jong-un, Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Gaddafi, and many other dictators and despots have done for revenge. This is not the American way, nor is it a power the President of the United States has within his/her grasp. That is why we have a separation of powers for our government. It is a system of checks and balances that promises that any official cannot abuse the powers of office.

Last night, we all saw the real Donald John Trump in action.We personally witnessed how vicious this man can be, especially to women, and one in particular. We all saw what his presidency would look like. We as a nation, got a glimpse of our future under a brutal Trump regime where the 1st Amendment would be swept away into oblivion.

It is within our capacity to ensure this does not happen, and we can do that with the collective power of our vote. Americans cannot afford sit back and wait to see what will happen. This is a crucial time for action. ‘We the People’ has now become the three most precious words of our lifetime, and we must guard them from the clutches of a madman on November 8th.

The Passion and Denial

kaine-and-pence

I had never really paid close attention to the GOP vice-presidential pick until last night. It was the first time I observed the man in action. What I saw confirmed my very first and still unchanged impression. If Donald Trump can compare Tim Kaine to an evil villain in a Batman flick then I too can have free rein. Mike Pence looks like the creepy guy that played the cold and calculating stone-faced hitman in one of those old ABC movies of the week.

He has a tough time shedding his inhibitions to work up any passion regarding his public policy and beliefs. Tim Kaine on the other hand, displays a fierce passion for the American Dream. This would have easily gotten under the tangerine-tinted paper-thin skin of Donald Trump, but trying to pierce the thick hide of Kaine’s debate opponent wasn’t as easy. However, Senator Kaine successfully provoked Pence in other subtle ways that was all too telling

Mike just couldn’t bring himself to openly defend Donald, and instead switched subjects to try to deflect back to Hillary Clinton’s emails, and unsuccessfully claimed the Democratic campaign was based on insult. If a single four-syllable word, deplorable, can upset the Republicans so much, how much more stinging are the numerous words flung thoughtlessly by Donald Trump, surrogates and cronies? The Republican campaign has been fraught with exaggerated hyperbole, veiled threats, demeaning innuendos, violence, and vulgarities. Trump in regard to policy on China:

“Listen, you motherf*ckers, we’re going to tax you 25 percent!”

or when referencing our military efforts:

“We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can’t get a f*cking school in Brooklyn.”

listen-you-motherfuckers

If carelessly labeling Hispanics, rapist, murderers, and drug dealers isn’t an insult then I do not understand the republican’s new definition. The GOP’s are asking Americans to become comfortable with a man who defines women as, “Miss Piggy,” “fat,” “slob,” “ugly,” “bleeding from their whatever,” “schlonged,” and men as “losers,” “cucks,” “dumb,” “liars,” or blacks as “lazy,” “untrustworthy,” “living in poverty,” “their lives are a disaster”, and “have nothing to lose.” When pressured for an apology for his remarks, the best Trump could do was an admission of regret. Regret is far, far different from that of an apology. Regret is regarded as more personal –  more for self – and apology is showing sorrow for injury to another.

Mike Pence was in full-denial mode that only served to distance himself as far as possible from Trump without saying a word of support for his running mate – he quietly threw his running mate under the crushing wheels of an oncoming bus. He doesn’t realize the firm grip Donald has on the scruff of his neck, and that no matter how far he tries to broaden that distance, he will forever be stained by Manhattan’s tiny-handed monster.

Tim Kaine clearly has no problem in displaying his passion for a public cause, and fervently upholding American Constitutional amendments. He is just as much unabashedly firm in his religious beliefs as Pence, but has a clear understanding in separation of church and state. He understands dual citizenship occurs when a child of immigrants is born on American soil, and it is not a thing that can be applied for; it’s automatic. Similarly, if one is religious, the Bible calls the believer to the same. Once born, you are instantly a citizen of your nation of birth, and once born-again, or realizing a full testimony in Christ, you are a citizen of Heaven – as it were.

In Romans 13: 1 – 7 the apostle Paul instructs people in their obligations to both an earthly citizenship and that of the Kingdom of God.


Romans 13 New International Version (NIV)

Submission to Governing Authorities
13:1 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.

6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full-time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.


Yes, Mr. Pence, I went there. Shall I go further? I will.

So, if Separation of Church and State, created by the United States Supreme Court in 1947, is the legal doctrine of the land, then one is commanded by Paul to uphold those doctrines and laws of man. Tim Kaine realizes that, Mike Pence does not, cannot, or refuses to. He would prefer to enforce his personal religious beliefs upon the women of this country in spite of this federal judicial doctrine prohibiting any federal, state, or local government’s support or preference for religion – basically eliminating religion from laws. Those who complain and have an irrational fear that the Clinton/Kaine ticket would institute a “Sharia Law” is nonsense. It is not real. That fear would be better placed at the feet of the Republican candidates as it is they who would resort to mostly old testament rules of religious laws governing man.

Hint: Remember an eye for an eye? How about being able to sell your daughter into servitude? Better yet, multiple wives and concubines? Or try this one; a man dies leaving behind a widow and his brother commanded to marry the widow, or government mandated circumcision. Then there’s stoning, beheading, slavery, forced prayer, religion in the courts, etc., etc. That’s not Sharia, that’s the Old Testament of the Holy Bible.

Another thing I noticed about Pence, is that he is shrewd, cold and calculating. He also stumbles easily as he cannot think fast on his feet, but give him a few seconds and he will resort to past conspiracy theories and imaginary plots driven by paranoid scenarios. Due to his cool demeanor he is a master at making them seem plausible and would have been successful if not for public record that is at odds with his comments. But make no mistake, the potential VP would only be a heartbeat from the presidency should something happen to incapacitate Trump in any way. Pence would be there to step-in and gladly fulfill his mission from God – not that he has openly admitted to such, but his past record in Indiana indicates he would do just that.

“That Mexican thing,” Pence whipped out is another indication the man has no regard for Hispanics any more than Donald Trump has. Pence also brazenly lied in response to Trump’s “deportation force” brought up by his opponent. Every outlandish remark, and comment made by Trump and Pence is public knowledge and record. That fact cannot be disputed by rhetoric, or bait and switch tactics. “That Mexican thing” is sure to be guaranteed to come back and ruthlessly haunt the GOP campaign on election day. Pence also commented about how bad the economy was nationally and how his state has lost financially because of said economy. He only has himself to blame. Quietly signing into law his “Religious Freedom Restoration Act,” has caused Indiana to lose millions of dollars in state income. He has forgotten the 1st Amendment which protects the freedom to worship as one chooses, and only signed the bill into law as a form of persecution of the LGBTQ community

There is one thing for certain, the GOP campaign has awakened the dormant ugliness of racism, bigotry, and hatred of the feminine. How any woman can vote for these two is beyond my capacity of understanding. Perhaps they are happy with the image of the “helpless little woman” whose brain would implode if they had a thought of their own independent of male guidance. Maybe it’s just easier for them just to believe if a man said so, it’s the truth…

Mike Pence is a glaring example of GOP hypocrisy that this year’s campaign has revealed in full. Untruths have been a GOP standard for years and the proof is in this memo from 1993. It shows the Republican Party would rather sacrifice the public good behind lies and obstruction of policy that would benefit the majority of America.

Notice the word claim is underlined. Here is the definition:capture-2

Therefore, when a republican senator or congressman makes an argument against democratic policy that lacks facts corroborating said argument, it is only a “claim” of personal belief and not factually based in solid truth. We have not seen any facts provided by unbiased, non-partisan sources. The only sources Donald Trump picks and chooses from are unscientific right-wing white nationalist sources that are biased against Latinos, blacks, Muslims, and women. Will it change in the future? Since republicans have unwittingly embraced Trump, it is unlikely. If conservatives attempt to salvage what is left of the GOP party after the thorough wrecking of it at the hands of Donald J Trump and et al, they will have to change their approach to more honest and factual research and sources. As it stands, the GOP is reflective of harsh religious ideologies and fascist rule. After this election is said and done, should they choose to ignore what has happened and hope the damage will go away, then the republican party is doomed to certain extinction.
