Run, you cowards….

Well…with the atrocity of a health bill inching it’s way through the repub controlled house, questions are being asked of it’s repub supporters whether or not they have even read the bill…and guess what? The cowards are running away from the questions…literally…since they haven’t…they will vote for a bill that will kill thousands of Americans and throw 24 million off their insurance but they haven’t even read what’s in it? I know why…they just don’t care….as long as they can give a trillion dollar tax cut to their owners, nothing else really matters since they have insulated themselves from the carnage by making it not applicable to them…now that’s some courage right there…cowards….

What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground?

Well….some years this day goes by with no recognition at all, but this year I think we need to remember what happens when the government turns on it’s citizens…especially in these days of trump. 47 years ago today, National guard troops opened fire on protesters on the campus of Kent State University…after 13 seconds, 4 young people lay dead on the ground for exercising their constitutional rights to assemble and protest….to this day, I still remember it coming over the news and Walter Cronkite reporting it…and as a 16 year old kid quickly coming up on draft age, I was still trying to understand the Vietnam war and why we were fighting there….I do remember the walkouts at my high school that followed Kent State and it did enter my mind that there may be danger there…I think Kent State was my turning point, where I went from the naivete of supporting the country no matter what to understanding that we as a country could be wrong…and those words from Neil Young’s song still bring a tear to my eye every time I hear them “…what if you knew her and found her dead on the ground…how can you run when you know?”  Peace…..

All you need to know about trumpcare….

Well….with the vote coming up this morning on throwing 24 million people off their health insurance by passing trumpcare, there is only one thing you need to know about it and the repubs that are selling it as being better than Obamacare….the repubs have exempted themselves from the crappy insurance that will come from trumpcare…yep, the great, wonderful insurance that will come from trumpcare is only for you…the idiots that voted for trump and his cronies…but not for the sociopaths that are voting for this atrocity….and there is no CBO score or even a full reading of the bill…the repubs want a vote and the bill isn’t even finished yet….just an outline but that won’t stop the idiot repubs from voting for it…no, I won’t call them idiots anymore…I’ll call them the murderers they are since thousands of American citizens are going to lose their lives from this bill…and hundreds of thousands are going to lose everything they’ve worked their entire lives for by having to declare bankruptcy being swamped by medical bills that were covered under Obamacare….we need to make these murderers pay in 2018….impeach….

Clinton and trump treated the same?

Well….have been reading a little about Comey’s testimony in the senate today and most of the response from the idiot repubs come from the WH playbook…that the only problem is that people were leaking information to the press….not that Comey put his thumb on the election scale and cost Clinton the election. When asked about that by dem senators, Comey answered that he treated both trump and Clinton the same….okay, let talk about that a minute…where was the letter to the house about trump’s ties to Russia when Comey just couldn’t wait to let the house know that they had found duplicate e-mails on someone else’s computer? In his testimony today, Comey even admitted that he knew that his letter about Clinton  would be leaked to the press by the repubs…but now he is “nauseous” that it happend and the he “may” have affected the election. This is bullshit…he knew damn well what he was doing would damage Clinton and he did it anyway….being a lifelong Clinton hater he even allowed the NY office of the FBI to work openly to help elect trump…and no amount of bullshit backfilling is going to change how much damage he has done to the US and the world…what a load of crap…..

The question was asked….

Well…with the interviews the idiot trump has done over the past few days and his totally deranged demeanor in them…the question was asked of John McCain yesterday if it was time to start talking about invoking the 25th amendment and removing trump from office since he is so obviously unfit to be president. Now, of course McCain changed the subject and didn’t give an answer, but the fact that the question is being asked shows where we are in regard to the mental illness that is trump. This is not a personality quirk or anything so benign as that, but trump has full blown delusional behavior that is indicative of something much more serious that can’t be allowed to continue….this idiot needs to be removed…now….impeach….

Do they have to lie about everything?

Well…I have a question for the idiot trump and his cronies….do you have to lie about everything? With reports out there that the trump inaugural committee got almost double in donations of any other committee….and we all know why that much money was given….basically bribes to trump to get influence and/or government jobs…but now we hear that they are trying to hide who gave money by falsifying the records of the campaign….just making up people and attributing donations to them. I think Rachael broke this one back in April but no other media has picked it up and I find that to be strange in itself….of course fox wouldn’t cover it but what about the rest? I guess it’s up to the rest of us to just keep hammering away no matter the threats that the idiot trump is throwing around to “open up the libel laws” and to start suing people who write things he doesn’t like…I just say bring it on, idiot….the first amendment still exists…for now….impeach….

Trump really is this damn dumb…

Well…I would find this funny if it wasn’t so damn scary…staffers talking off the record yesterday have found that it now their job to “talk him out of doing crazy things” and they have found the only way to get him to listen to anything is to only give him one course of action since he is just too damn dumb to sort out competing ideas and make decisions…he only wants one idea and then the only thing that concerns him is how the media is going to react…not what the policy implications are…but how the media is going to react. These leaks from the inside show all of us that no matter how stupid trump makes himself look whenever he does an interview, he is really even much more dumb than he looks…shouldn’t there be a minimum IQ for anyone running for and serving as *president?   Impeach…

More tax cuts for the rich…

Well…it wasn’t any surprise when the idiot trump unveiled his “tax reform” plan and it gives all of the tax cuts to the rich…what did you expect? Here’s the kicker…his treasury secretary won’t even promise that middle class taxes won’t go up…yep, you heard it….the rich are going to get 250 billion dollars a year in tax cuts while you and I are going to be asked to pay for them…so, get out your checkbook, chumps…the idiot you voted for, who promised you “yuuuuuge” tax cut is going to raise your taxes and put the money right into his pocket. Do you feel screwed yet? You’re going to lose your healthcare and now you are going to pay more in taxes since you believed this idiot….will this change anyone’s mind that voted for trump? Nope…they are just too damn dumb to see it…impeach…

What a frickin double standard…

Well…as you remember from the last election, the media went nuts about the Clinton foundation, ignoring the good that it does and the fact that it had been audited multiple times and found to be following every law that governs foundations….but, that didn’t matter to the media or to the right…with the media colluding with the right to push the rumors and innuendo that damaged Clinton. Now, I wonder if the right is going to say anything at all about the revelations that Ivanka Trump has a new foundation that she is funding by gifts from other governments and from shady billionaires from around the world. Yep, you heard that right…the WH special assistant to the idiot president is out there soliciting bribes that are disguised as “donations” to her new foundation whose purpose is going to remain secret if she is anything like her idiot father….let’s tell this like it is…this is just another slush fund where the trumps are enriching themselves by their government positions…clear violations of the Hatch act and probably many other felonies…but do the repubs in the House care, and are they going to do anything about it? Nope…they are all a part of this scam and they all should be in jail…impeach…

Flynn was on Russia’s payroll….

Well….just a shorty on some news that just came over twitter a few minutes ago…Jason Chaffetz announced that it appears that Michael Flynn took money from the Russians and now trump and his cronies are refusing to give the oversight committee the records they have of it….only 100 days in and we have a coverup going on at the WH of treason……the odd thing is that not one news organization is covering this…are they trying to help trump weather his treasonous actions? Okay….having a hard time working up outrage today so I think I’ll leave it here…more later…
