40,000 beer jobs gone to tariffs…

Well…maybe this will start to get the country’s attention…in a study released last week, it appears that trump’s stupid tariffs are now reaching their jobless tentacles into other parts of the economy other than farmers. As every damn economist has said, the only result of these stupid tariffs is that Americans will pay for them…both in higher prices and in job losses in every damn industry…and the beer industry is no different with almost 40,000 jobs gone since the higher costs were imposed on the industry and companies have had to scale back production and expansion because of the higher costs…you might say because of this new tax put on the American people. For a comparison, this 40K jobs are more jobs than every damn coal job east of the Mississippi and it is just the start that will get much, much worse when the latest 25% tariffs kick in. So, why does trump hate the American worker so much? He’s just like every other entitled prick in this country…they don’t give a damn about anyone but themselves….and when you mix in trump’s epic stupidity, it will take years if ever to repair this damage…impeach…

Let’s go, Nancy…

Well…with the news from yesterday that the idiot trump and his toady Barr are going to use the justice department to attack people who trump thinks did him wrong, with trump going so far as to bleat treason when he really has no clue what the word even means, it time to go Nancy Pelosi…it’s time to start impeachment to protect this country from this absolutely unfit asshole and let the entire world know who trump is and stop this ruination of our country and institutions. This is not the time to even consider politics in this decision, it is imperative to get this process started or there won’t be any politics to worry about anymore…there won’t be any country left after the repubs are done with it…their constant graft and lies and lawbreaking needs to be stopped…and I don’t want to hear the argument that impeachment could cost us the House or get trump re-elected…surveys already say that 54% of the American people already won’t vote for trump…so do you think that after all of trump’s crimes are revealed live on tv that more people would vote for him? Let’s go, Nancy…it’s time to protect this country and let the chips fall where they may…impeach…

This is pretty funny…

Well…decided to not do a second ride today with the wind blowing over 20 and gusting to 30 or so…so, I thought I’d do one of these before I try to take a nap to compensate for getting up before 5 this morning…I just read something that is pretty damn funny..it seems that this morning, Nancy Pelosi called on the idiot trump’s family or staff to intervene with him before he hurts himself or the country given the spectacle of his meltdown yesterday. Now, you know I’m an old guy and have been around for a while, but in all of those years I’ve never heard a speaker of the House ask a president’s family to intervene before he hurts himself…and trump’s reactions this morning shows that she has set up house in his head rent free and is owning the moron in chief and that makes me laugh out loud. I wonder how this will set with the “great businessman” to be roundly ridiculed by everyone who saw his little hissy fit in the Rose Garden yesterday? Meltdown, meltdown, meltdown….impeach this ass right now….

The toddler in chief holds his breath…

Well..damn, trump really is a toddler…after storming out of a meeting after three minutes with Pelosi and Schumer that was supposed to be about how to start fixing our crumbling infrastructure, the toddler in chief went out to talk to reporters and whine that he won’t do his job until congress stops investigating him…the only thing missing was him jumping up and down and holding his breath. Is this enough repubs? Is it finally enough that this moron criminal won’t even talk to anyone about his frickin job unless they cave to his blackmail? You can see the meltdown coming and it is really going to hit the fan when the appeals court that has the case about his obstruction by not providing his financial statements rules against him and Mazars has to hand all of it over. Today was such a childish spectacle of an entitled idiot coming apart when he was told no you can’t have ice cream before dinner…the ball is in your court dems, it is now time to get the impeachment ball rolling and remove this obviously unfit toddler from office…

One down…many, many to go..

Well….guess what? You’re getting another one early this morning as I wait for the guys to bring the new appliances…and this is a little bit of good news for those of us who thinks the law applies to everyone. Just yesterday, a court decided that yes, idiot boy trump’s accounting firm Mazars HAS to hand over 10 years of trump’s financial records to the House Oversight committee and the ruling is a strongly worded affirmation that the House does have the authority to get any information they need to carry out their duties and the fact that he refused a stay while idiot boy’s lawyers appeal the decision says that the judge feels that the decision will survive appeal…as long as trump’s hand picked judges don’t overturn hundreds of years of precedent and ignore the clear intent of the constitution. So, the dam starts to break and this is just the first of many losses that trump is going to suffer as he breaks the law every day trying to cover up his crimes….impeach…

More lies…to war….

Well…sitting here waiting for the maintenance guys to come to look at my washer and thought I’d talk a little about a new development in the constant attempt by the idiot trump and his idiot NSA John Bolton to lie us into war with Iran. If you remember, Bolton was instrumental in lying us into war with Iraq pushing the WMD bullshit and how did that turn out? 7 trillion dollars later we have a barely stable Iraq that is more closely allied with Iran every day and none of Bolton’s or Cheney’s predictions were even remotely true….and now he is pushing trump into more war crimes in the middle east with the lies that Iran is building up to attacking the US. When this bullshit was presented to our truth based allies, they all laughed in Mike Pompeo’s face and told him bluntly that they are misinterpreting the intelligence and they will not go along with any attack on Iran…and will even condemn the attack in the UN and side with Iran. I wonder how happy Putin is with this latest wedge driven between the US an Europe by their installed puppet trump? Putin seems to be getting everything he wanted by elevating idiot boy…and I can see that smirk on his face that says he can’t believe how well his intelligence operation worked. No one in the world believes anything trump or his administration says anymore…can we have a little more winning please? Impeach…

Crooked damn Michigan republicans…

Well…I guess the will of the people means nothing to Michigan republicans…of course, we knew that with their continued efforts to rig elections here to make sure they control the state when they get massively less votes in every damn election. The latest from these anti-American assholes sees them trying to destroy the constitutional amendment that would undo their partisan gerrymandering and that was approved by 61% of the voters here that would take the drawing of congressional districts out of the hands of these cheaters and put it into the hands of a bipartisan commission that would draw the lines fairly…but no, the repubs know that fairly drawn districts would put them permanently in the minority here so, of course, they are trying to defeat the Michigan constitution by refusing to fund the commission, trying their best to prevent our democracy from functioning for purely partisan bullshit. Now, since we control the governorship and the attorney general’s offices here, we can stop them from passing any of this last gasp of cheating by the repubs…but why should we have to? Why do we have to put up with the repub party here never ever doing anything to solve the problems we have here but just continual naked power grabs that make life here worse. We need to throw every damn one of them out and burn that party to the ground….

It’s a criminal investigation, you moron…

Well…yeah, I’m a little late today with getting a second ride in just a few minutes ago, but I did want to talk a little about the moron in chief and his bleating that his campaign was “spied” on during the 2016 election…hey, idiot boy…it wasn’t spying, it was a criminal investigation of the criminals that you surrounded yourself with…and no amount of lying by you or by your toady Barr is going to change that. One other thing, facts are facts and it is a fact that damn near everyone on your campaign met with the Russians to try to get their help to elect you…and yes, there was collusion and the only way you got away with it was that your criminal minions destroyed enough evidence that Mueller couldn’t meet the DOJ rules for indicting your ass….so, media, stop parroting this frickin idiot’s “spying” bullshit and tell the truth…and no, both sides don’t do it…only this criminal colluded with the Russians, only this idiot obstructed justice at least 10 times during the Mueller investigation…oh, and by the way…it was revealed just yesterday that trump and his buddies in the congress…I’m talking to you, Devin Nunes…obstructed justice during the Mike Flynn debacle, too…can there be any reason left to not impeach this asshole? Impeach…

Let’s get it to the courts…

Well…you know, I’ve frickin had enough of trump shitting all over the constitution as they did more of today when the WH said that congress has no “standing” to investigate the president and won’t provide them with any information at all…never mind that it is written into the constitution that it is exactly what the legislative branch has as one of it’s primary duties…so, let’s get on with it and stop the asking nicely and just go to the courts to have them force these assholes to provide what every president has…and on a parallel track, let’s start impeachment proceedings that the supreme court will have to rule that any information request “shall” be complied with…given the 8-0 precedent in the Nixon tapes decision and every other decision since the country was formed. No more damn delays, no more negotiation, just haul their asses into congress and lock them up if they don’t comply…geez….

Could be today…

Well…sitting here waiting for the chicken to cook for lunch and thought I’d do one of these while I wait so I don’t feel stressed when I head back out on the bike this aft…today could be the day that the first subpoena on trumps financial records gets upheld and his accounting firm could be forced to turn them over. Last week, the judge in the case called bullshit on the delays that trump’s lawyers were trying to do by breaking the case down into tiny little parts and hoping the judge would go along with their ploys and stretch the case out for months…but, the judge wasn’t buying it, saying he was ready to hear from the parties involved today and he would rule on the validity of the subpoenas by the end of the day. One of the stunning parts was the judge told trump’s lawyers that there was no need for any other filings in the case since there was enough case law already on the books for him to render a decision…and legal experts out there think that means that that the legality of the subpoenas will be upheld. Of course that means that trump’s lawyers will appeal the decision immediately and I hope the House’s lawyers will again ask for an expedited hearing to take away trump’s only move that is to delay, delay, delay until he is out of office. There are other cases that are also coming up with idiot boy’s attempt to block Deutsche Bank from handing over more records and we can hope that that judge will expedite the case as well…as Rachel said last night, they can delay but they won’t be able to stop the House from getting the information they asked for…and that could be today…impeach…
