Well…we all saw this coming…that the idiot trump would start pardoning the dregs of society and those who helped him collude with the Russians to win in the 2016 election…of course he started with Flynn and now Flynn is driving the bus of getting idiot boy to declare martial law and destroy the constitution….pretty bad dreg, huh? The latest pardons include three disgraced repub congressmen, and the worst one possible where he granted clemency to one of the Blackwater thugs who murdered 14 unarmed Iraqi civilians and was serving life without parole…but I guess that’s okay to the modern repub party…after all, killing 300,000 plus Americans is okay to them so what is 14 Iraqis? This bullshit has to be tied around every repub neck for the rest of time since they had to chance to remove him and didn’t just to protect their power…and now they own it forever….and, it’s going to get worse…

Cheapskates…
Well…can it be any more obvious who the repubs in congress care the most about? I certainly isn’t the people of this country who are suffering from unemployment, underemployment, and the virus that is raging across the country…and you can see that by the supposed “relief” bill that is being passed in congress right now that is only about a third of the tax cuts they gave to the rich a few years back…and even in this bill, there are more tax cuts for the rich and the one that really shows how cynical they are is one they just had to have…to make the “three martini lunch” tax deductible again where rich folks can take each other out for dining at over priced restaurants and deduct the entire cost from their taxes…something that most working people can’t afford in the first place. So now, along with all of the tax cuts they are given, we are going to be buying the rich assholes lunch every damn day…and how much help is it going to be to someone who is losing their home or getting evicted when they get the paltry 600 dollars that the poor folks get? Every damn sentient economist has said that this is just not enough to help pull the country out of the recession it is in but moscow mitch and his cronies have said this is all they are going to do…they are done helping the lazy assed takers who can’t find a job in the pandemic economy…and that goes for the 1.4 million people who were added to the unemployed last month and the 20+ million who were already out of work…this is why we need to win both senate seats in the Georgia runoff in January…that would give us the majority we need to really help the people of this country and build the economy that would work for everyone…not just mitch’s cronies…
I still hate Bill Barr…
Well…with all the damage that Bill Barr has done to this country and the rule of law, no matter what he does from now until forever I will still hate him…I wonder if there should be a but here, but that would mean I excuse his crap just because he acted like a real AG one damn time…but I don’t at all…over the past few days, since his resignation, he has stood up to the idiot trump a few times and who cares what the reason is…after the election, while he let trump go on and on about “voter fraud” before he weighed in and said there was no evidence of widespread fraud, he could have said bluntly there wasn’t any, but I guess that’s better than nothing…and just today he came out with a statement that there is no evidence of voter fraud so he will not appoint a special counsel to investigate that…and the second part of that statement is that he will not appoint one to investigate Hunter Biden, either, stating that any investigation is being handled through normal channels so there is no need….so, I wonder if idiot boy is now going to “fire” Barr even after he resigned and install a toady as AG that will do it? It appears that the Barr reputation cleansing tour is on with these statements but there is no way it should be allowed to work…every time this asshole pops his head up after trump is gone, he needs to be asked the questions about all of the crap he has pulled as AG, especially turning the justice department into a trump protection racket and not let him even try to be the “elder statesman” that he has not earned…geez…
It’s only 614 million dollars…no big deal…
Well…you know, I can’t believe that the maga assholes out there know about the outright theft of their donations to the idiot boy…I would be pretty pissed if I donated to a political campaign and found out that 614 million dollars of it was skimmed off by the trump family and made to disappear…but, then again, I have a working brain that knows the only reason the idiot got involved in politics was to grift as much cash as he could….just this week it was reported that Kushner created an LLC that funneled over 600 million dollars of campaign contributions through it with no reporting on where it went or who it went to…this is just another bigger version of what these criminals did with all of the inauguration cash that disappeared but that we all know ended up in trump’s pockets and it is still illegal to do that….do you think that trump’s justice department is going to look into that? Ha, ha, ha…that made me laugh out loud just writing it…but, as I’ve said before, on January 20th at noon, they lose their protection and they are so stupid they think that just because they got away with it during the idiot’s term, they are in the clear….I wonder if that smoke I see over DC is the indusrtial sized shredders running wide open to destroy the evidence? It won’t matter in this digital age where there are multiple copies of everything out there in the cloud….and DC can bring charges if the stupident pardons everyone…tick tock, trump…prison is coming….
Not a peep out of idiot boy…
Well…after the revelation of Russia’s ongoing cyber attacks on the US, have you heard a peep out of idiot boy on this subject? Nope, not a damn word….and I can guess why…trump doesn’t want to get Putin pissed so he can’t take asylum there when he is charged with the many crimes he has committed. Look, let’s call this what it is…it’s not a hack like the media is framing it…it is the new type of military attack on the battlefield where most battles are going to be fought from now and into the future….and it is from the Russian military that this attack is coming…and trump and the morons he put in charge of this country’s safety sit and do nothing…and to compound that (and I think to hide their incompetence) these idiots have told the experts in the Biden administration that there will be no more briefings at all until next year so that’s two weeks at least that Russia can do whatever it wants since trump won’t do anything other than bitch about “voter fraud” and golf….this is what happens when you have a *president who talks tough but is scared shitless of Putin, and who believes him more than our own IC….I guess idiot boy thinks this is just “fake news” and he has checked out anyway…refusing to take any intelligence briefings since he lost the election…maybe that is a good thing…he is so damn dumb he wouldn’t have anything to offer anyway…geez…
McConnell doesn’t give a damn about Americans…
Well…if moscow mitch couldn’t get any worse, it was reported today that even though he didn’t care enough about Americans to work on a covid relief bill over the past 7 months, he now seems to be in a hurry to get something passed…and it is for the most cynical reasons you can imagine….the only reason he is doing anything is to give the two repub senate candidates in a runoff in Georgia a boost and to try to save his majority in the senate…not because people are going hungry, not because people are being evicted from their homes, not because people are dying across this country, not because small businesses are dying at a staggering rate…but just because he needs those two senate seats to keep his job as majority leader….and that is just sick. I can’t understand why the people who voted from him continue to do it…nothing he has done in his entire time in the senate has benifitted anyone but he and his family…okay, and the Russian oligargh that gave him 200 million dollars to build an aluminum plant in Kentucky…oh, and that oligarch was under sanctions for being a criminal but moscow mitch worked his ass off to get those sanctions lifted and I wonder what other rewards mitch got for lifting those sanctions? If anyone is in running for the worst person in the world along with the idiot trump, it is moscow mitch…the person who has done more damage to the US than any other person in it’s history…what a traitor….
The wicked witch is gone…
Well…we here in Michigan have a unique perspective on the DeVos family and in Betsy in particular…she is one of the people who tried to destroy the public school system here with bankrolling the fight for charter schools that siphon public dollars off to give to private schools for profit and have left our public schools scrambling for the money they need to educate our children. And the dirty little secret behind all of this theft of public money is to allow these charter schools to be defacto religious schools that are supported by tax dollars which should violate the constitution of both the US and Michigan…but, her money and the money of other right wing assholes have bought enough judges here that they have been able to get rulings that allow them to keep indoctrinating children into their right wing christian cult that gave us the idiot trump. Even now, as she is on the way out with idiot boy, she is trying to cement the awful changes she has made to the education department by exhorting the people there to “resist” the Biden administration and continue her right wing destruction of that department. One thing that she and all of the other rich assholes that trump has installed don’t get is that the career professionals hate them and the destruction they have done…and I’ll bet that this resistance will never materialize…they will just breathe a sigh of relief when a professional educator who really does have the best interests of the nation’s students at heart takes over….and the wicked witch goes back to her 20 million dollar, Cayman Islands registered yacht that she doesn’t pay any taxes on…good riddance…
Bye, bye Bill Barr….
Well…hey, can you tell I’m still bored? I am…so let’s do another one…just yesterday, the worst AG int he country’s history announced that he is “resigning” effective on the 23rd of December to spend time with his family for the holidays. I’m sure this has nothing to do with the “heated” meeting this crook had with the idiot boy after he announced that there was no widespread vote fraud that the justice department could find that directly destroyed all of trump’s lies about the election. I think Barr is afraid of trump’s delusional followers since he wrote the most ass kissing resignation letter I have ever seen…praising trump’s “leadership” and all of his accomplishments…and all of the other bullshit that his synchophants always put in these letters…even though Barr’s damage is already done…at least he won’t be able to do more before January 20th…but the trump lover who takes his place could so we still need to watch out for that…good riddance asshole…
I’m already bored….
Well…it’s 9:21 am and I am already bored with this day….and it’s still only 21 degrees outside so even the prospect of getting a ride in today is far, far in the future…so, let’s talk a little politics…yesterday, the electors made it official and Joe and Kamala won the election…but the stupid repubs just won’t give it up…here in Michigan, they tried to send a bunch of “alternate electors” into the state capitol to vote for the idiot trump but they were stopped at the door since they had no legal standing other than in some delusional repubs head…I do like that Joe has started to call out idiot boy’s behavior for what it is…damaging to our country and democracy but I think he is naive if he thinks he is going to be able to work with the trump cult as he said in his speech….these people are too far gone down the rabbit hole and Joe needs to see the reality of it…that none of this is normal and normal methods aren’t going to do the job…he needs to have a plan in place for the alternatives when working with them fails…but, I’m sure that they have smart people working on that problem right now since Joe’s people are competent….not like idiot boy’s whose only skills are kissing trump’s butt….still haven’t seen trump’s tweetstorm for today but it must gall the hell out of him that Putin called Joe to congratulate him on his win and there will be comments coming…that should be rich…
The electoral college votes today…
Well…in any other presidential election year, voting by the electoral college to elect the new president would go by without many people even noticing it, since it has always been a foregone conclusion that the person getting the most votes in each state go the vote of that state’s electors. But, with the new, radical repub party, there are no rules and they are still trying to use the EC to cheat like they do everywhere and install the idiot boy for 4 more years. In all my long lifetime, I have never heard of threats of violence aimed at the electors in any state, but this new trump repub party, it is standard procedure to try to bully people and threaten violence if they don’t get their way…the threats got so bad here in Michigan that they closed the capitol for the EC votes in the senate chamber today and the electors have been given police escorts both to and from the chamber for the vote that is going on right now. Look, this is not normal…this kind of thing has never happened before and shouldn’t be happening now and the blame lies squarely on the repub party and it’s ringleader trump….at any point, or at every point the repub leadership should have shut this bullshit down but they are too damn scared of getting a trump tweet aimed at them…what kind of person can be scared of that asshole? All I know is that everything that is happening is the fault of the repubs…and there is no “both sides do it bullshit”…not once, not ever, has a dem politician called for the cancelling of election that they lost in a desperate attempt to stay out of jail…but that is just what is happening now…and that is the only reason idiot boy is doing it now…he needs the office to stay out of jail…nothing deeper than that…and he believes that because he would do anything to win in business or politics, he projects that the dems did that in this election…a delusion he will die with…
