Dipped my toe in the news…

Well…I dipped my toe back int he news for 5 minutes today and my head didn’t explode so that means I can start doing political ones here again…and the first one in a while is going to be about the science deniers that are being inserted across the government by the idiot trump, and their first attack is on fluoridation that is put in water across this country to help preserve teeth…yeah, we’re at that point where these assholes want to take one of the cheapest and most effective public health programs and eliminate it…it’s been studied and the result is that for every dollar that is spent on fluoride prevents over 20 dollars in tooth damage…and it causes no health problems at all…none…but these assholes don’t care about that…the only thing they care about is preventing the government from doing anything that will benefit everyone since they don’t give a damn about anyone but the rich…okay, this feels good to be back at this again…I’ll try to keep it up…

Stupid cybertrucks…

Well…I guess buying an election for the idiot trump is not good for tesla cybertruck sales…just this week a memo was sent to the workers in the plant to not bother to come in anymore…I guess all the cyberbros that wanted one have already got them and sales have basically ended…I mean selling 4 or 5 a week is not nearly enough to support a dedicated plant and we see the crashing sales across the tesla lines…and ole elon did it to himself and the workers and I feel bad for them but not elon…that asshole is mostly responsible for the hell we are going to live in for the next 4 years and whatever bad happens to him and his companies is not enough to pay for what he’s done…geez…

Stupid trump tricks…

Well…if you are planning on buying a house soon, you’d better get it done before the idiot trump gets in office in January…in one of the things that repubs always want to do, they are floating the idea of privatizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the organizations that guarantees bonds that are used to make home loans that the government took a stake in during the great recession to keep the mortgage market from collapsing…and they want to remove the regulations that keep people from getting gouged when they buy a home…without those regulations, economists are already weighing in that it would add thousands of interest costs yearly to all 30 year mortgages that are taken out after these changes…and that is another attack on people in this country who are not rich and can barely afford a home as it is…and this will take another 50 million people out of the market…and it will cause a housing led recession that will suck trillions of dollars in equity out of real estate…so now we have another trump tax on all homeowners in this country…how do you feel now trumpers when the only place you’ve made money in the past decade is going to go away? Smart voters, huh?

Qualified people?

Well…if you didn’t know how bad the new “administration” of the idiot trump was going to be, you only have to look at his picks for attorney general…he started out with Matt Gaetz…you know him, the Florida legislator who is under investigation for child trafficking  after sleeping with underage girls for years…or after he withdrew, the next one was Pam Bondi…you know her…the Florida AG who idiot boy bribed to drop investigations into him a few years back…and the question comes to mind for me…”do you have to be a criminal to be a picked for an office by the idiot?” It sure looks that way or maybe you have to be a talking head on fox news since one of them was picked to be secretary of state…yeah, if you didn’t think it could get worse than the first trump debacle, you ain’t seen nothing yet…geez…

Poor babies…

Well…going to dip my toes back into political stuff starting today and the first thing I wanted to talk about is the whining coming from people who voted for the idiot when the first thing the repubs are going to do is take away health insurance from 50 million Americans by repealing the ACA…what the hell did you idiots expect? The repubs don’t give a damn about you and never did and next they are coming for Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security…and you can bet all the assholes who voted for idiot boy are going to whine some more when they are homeless and starving…and I am going to say “I told you so” every damn day when the damage to this country piles up from the people you voted for…don’t blame me…I voted for sanity and competence but it wasn’t enough when half the country lives to hate….geez…

Election day is here…

Well…election day is here and I’m going into a news blackout for the day when there is a possibility that our fellow Americans are going to help the idiot trump betray everything that this country stands for…and I had this thought yesterday since I lived through the days of the Soviet Union and the propaganda that “Pravda” put out every day…lying to the Soviet people every day and the effects were the same as fox news on today’s maga idiots…the soviets believed only what “Pravda” told them…that they were constantly under danger of attack from the US and that the ruling Politburo was the only thing that could save them…sound familiar? Yeah, it’s the same damn thing that idiot boy does every day…instilling fear in his followers with the same kind of lies that every wannabe dictator uses…you remember “only I can fix it”? That was his theme from the 2020 election and guess who really “fixed it”…it was Biden and Harris and their team that led our economy to the best in the world that the idiot is planning to wreck by raising taxes on everyone but the rich and handing that money over to the oligarchs who have bankrolled him…but don’t just believe me…over 250 of the worlds leading economists have said the same thing…you want to cough up an extra 4,000 dollars a year in tariffs? Just to follow a guy who has nothing but hate to offer…I think Americans need to grow up and embrace objective reality again…that idiot boy will ruin this country and you’re going down with him…especially those of us who depend on Social Security…can you live with a  30% cut to the money you paid in? That’s what will happen next year if you vote for idiot boy…I wonder why hate is so much more important than self preservation to the maga folks? They are going to starve along with the rest of us…geez…

The last day…

Well…I really don’t want to minimize the fact that today could be the last day of the USA if the idiot trump is elected…he has promised to use every fascist tool to go after his enemies and wreak havoc on everything that makes this a good country…remember, it was him who started the divisions that now roil the country by giving the assholes who support him permission to be the racist assholes they already were but had to hide before idiot boy came along…and to contrast the two campaigns, all this last week, idiot boy was all hate all the time attacking everyone who is not a white person…and he knows he is going to contest the election so he really has given up trying to convince anyone but his maga hordes to vote for him…while Kamala has been leaning into the themes of freedom and inclusion that have been the hallmark of her campaign…and making the US better for those who have been shut out of any voice before…I find it refreshing that hope is one of the things she mentions the most…and let’s remember, the US has the best economy in the world by every measure…and it was the Biden/Harris team that clawed it out of the crater that idiot boy left it in…a frickin miracle that the media is doing it’s best to hide in their efforts to help the idiot get elected…personally, I don’t think the polls are accurate other than the one in Iowa that shows that Kamala is up 4 points…in Iowa? Yeah, there’s something happening that the polls just haven’t captured since they look backward and are not seeing the enthusiasm for Kamala and Tim…this is a change election that I hope will relegate the idiot trump to the ash heap of history…just where he belongs…oh, and let’s remember…he gets sentenced for his 34 felony convictions on the 26th…I’ll make popcorn…geez…

Outlawing vaccines?

Well…if you didn’t already know of the danger that idiot boy and his cronies are to you even if you are a religious white person, this should do it…over this weekend the latest out of the idiot’s campaign is that if he’s elected, they will outlaw all vaccines in this country…have you ever heard of a more stupid thing coming out of anyone’s mouth? I’m of the age when polio was still a scourge across the world and the only reason it isn’t is the vaccines that were developed in the 50′s…before that thousands of people died every year from polio…and thousands more were paralyzed and in iron lungs since they could no longer breathe for themselves…so now the morons on the right want that back due to the propaganda from the right wing media that has demonized scientific knowledge…mostly in response to the covid vaccine that has saved millions of lives…and the thing is that there have been almost twice as many deaths in red states who continue to refuse the vaccine when it has been shown to prevent long covid…there is even a county in Idaho that has already outlawed the health department there of giving vaccines of any sort…so kids there can get measles, mumps, rubella, and polio…along with whooping cough that is on the rise across the US in guess where? Yep, red states…this should be outlawed as child abuse and people enacting these dangerous laws should be locked up….geez…

How many more women need to die?

Well…all of us who believe in women’s rights knew this was going to happen…that the restrictive abortion laws in red states were going to kill women who are having emergencies with their pregnancies…and just this week another woman died because the hospital in Texas said she had to wait until she was closer to death before they could do the d&c that would have saved her life…and she joins the dozens of others who have died as a direct result of these repub laws and they don’t care one bit the lifesaving care was refused that would have saved every one of these women…how big of an asshole do you have to be to kill women just because of your religious delusions? Do you need any other reason to vote blue in this election? We need to throw every damn one of these morons out who think of women as less important then their stupid religion…and we still have three days to vote…so get out there if you haven’t voted yet…you will be saving women’s lives…geez..

This will be funny if it happens…

Well…with ole elon propping up trump to the tune of 50 million dollars and counting, someone went into his background and found that he broke the law and lied about it when he was applying for citizenship here…when he came here from South Africa, he got into the country on a student visa…but the problem with that is he never signed up for any courses and then got a job here on that student visa which is illegal…and when he was applying for citizenship he lied about how he got into the country in the first place…and many, many times before, naturalized citizens have had their status revoked and were deported for lying when applying for citizenship…at the very least, the revelation that he has had regular phone calls with putin should cause his security clearance to be revoked and then SpaceX should be confiscated, especially since it was learned last week that he has been helping the Russian army attack Ukraine by providing internet access to them through his Starlink satellites…this is traitorous, helping an enemy of the US is the very definition of treason and he should be locked up for that…I’ve had enough of trump loving billionaire immigrants like elon, murdoch, and thiel who come here promising to live by the constitution and then do their best to subvert it at every turn..geez…
