Well…have been doing a bunch of reading today and just came across a new ruling by a state court in North Carolina that struck down two new constitutional amendments on the grounds that the repubs control the legislature only because of an illegal racial gerrymander and therefore have no right to place the amendments on the ballot. Now, this is something I have been waiting for quite a while now…that the damage that repubs have been able to do across the country due to stealing elections, voter suppression, and gerrymandering is illegal and this is the first court (out of many, I hope) that has reversed some of this damage by the novel legal ruling that, by cheating, everything that is a result of this cheating is invalid. A ruling like this, if upheld, would take away the incentive that the repubs have to cheat since the poisoned fruit of that cheating could be reversed by the courts in their role of being a referee of fairness. Now, let’s extend that to the current squatter in the WH…if we could just get this ruling applied to idiot boy, his SC appointments, his tariffs, and all the other damage could be reversed since the Mueller report will show that trump was illegally elected and therefore is not entitled to any of the powers that come with the office. We can only hope that this decision stands and is expanded to ensure this country works as its supposed to….and then we’ll stop rewarding cheaters for their blatant rigging of our system…impeach…

Let’s understand the context…
Well…with the Mueller investigation coming to a head, I think it’s time to understand where the idea of “can’t indict a sitting president” came from…and to put a little context into the idea that no one is above the law. To start with, the “memo” in question was written back in the days of Watergate but it wasn’t written for the purpose everyone assumes…it really didn’t have anything to do with Nixon…according to reporting on Rachel last night, the memo was an attempt to ensure that Spiro Agnew couldn’t ascend to the presidency since he was under investigation for influence peddling and taking bribes throughout his career…as was Nixon at the time with impeachment clouds starting to gather on the horizon. The only mention of indicting the president was a throwaway line from the memo that people have clung to as law and time has seen it grow in stature that people there at the creation of the memo just can’t understand…so, this is no law, or statute that prevents indicting a president…just the opinion of one person responding to a completely different crisis. We need to look back to the context of what the founders were thinking when they wrote the constitution…coming just after unshackling themselves from a monarch who was above the law, they purposely didn’t want that same problem with any elected president…so, nowhere in the constitution is there any idea that the president is above the law and is immune to the laws of the country. I think this whole idea is going to be tested in the near future by the SDNY when they finish their investigations into the trump organization, foundation, and every damn thing that idiot boy has touched…remember, they already have proof that trump committed two felonies at this point but haven’t charged him yet….there has to be many, many more felonies waiting in the wings…impeach…
Another day…another two scandals…
Well…is anyone else just getting damn tired of the unending stream of scandals coming from the trump crime family every disgusting day? Following and writing about this stuff is just so corrosive that I do think it’s affecting my brain and is triggering my depression…I mean, how the hell do you have two scandals in one day? The NYT Monday night dropped a bombshell that trump had been trying to interfere in the SDNY prosecution of Michael Cohen by getting one of the cronies that he appointed to that office to take over the investigation…but, the one little problem is that this idiot promised to recuse himself from anything trump related in that office (yeah, I know, what the hell else would he have to do?) but idiot boy tried to get this other idiot to un-recuse himself which he wouldn’t do. Then trump got the acting AG Whitaker to pressure the second idiot and he still refused and that set trump off to the point of screaming at Whitaker. Of course, Whitaker lied about the irate phone calls from trump under oath, in front of a House committee and now the chair of that committee, Jerry Nadler, wants Whitaker back soonest to ask him about his lies…and remember this, one of the felonies that Michael Cohen is going to jail for is lying to congress…so bye, bye Whitaker…you can keep Cohen company when you go to jail with him…I wonder how long it’s going to take for these morons to understand that trump is deadly poison to them and their careers? I guess it just shows that the only people willing to work for trump are the dumbest people in the world…a really good fit for trumpworld…impeach…oh, that was only one scandal…this one was getting too long so I think I just do another one on today’s scandal but, not for awhile…
Brexit supporters are just as stupid as trump’s
Well…as the deadline for the UK to leave the EU fast approaches, the pre-fallout of the economic chaos that is coming to the UK is starting to be much, much clearer. Just yesterday, Honda announced that it will close it’s plant there putting 3,500 people out of work and this is not the first company to understand that it will not be viable to continue to build anything in England. Airbus, Jaguar, and Nissan are just a few of the companies who have seen that their supply chains will see huge increases in costs without the integration of the EU but it doesn’t matter to the people who voted for brexit, whose primary reason for voting to leave the EU was their racist views on immigration and wanting to “keep England England” which is code for keeping “brown” people out. Sound familiar? In the US, the racist trump supporters did exactly the same thing and are seeing exactly the same results with the idiotic trump tariffs that are putting thousands of farmers out of business and the jobs that support those farmers are gone, too…and this is in areas that voted overwhelmingly for trump. Both trump followers and brexit supporters were lied to, with both trump and the parliments brexit MP’s saying that their economies would thrive and grow once “onerous regulations” were removed…but, it looks like the only thing being removed from England is jobs and the minority who supported brexit just doesn’t care….their hate is their security blanket as their economy craters….and it is just going to get worse…
The toddler in chief is whining again…
Well…will someone on the right please go read the first amendment to the toddler in chief? I know I say this a lot but trump is dumber than a box of rocks…and he put that stupidity on full display this weekend when he went off on twitter attacking SNL for hurting his fee fees with a hilarious takedown of his delusional, just frickin nuts speech announcing the “national emergency” that his fevered brain created out of thin air so he can build his stupid wall along the Mexican border. If you haven’t seen the tweets, the gist is he is calling for “retribution” against SNL for pointing out how ridiculous idiot boy is, and this bullshit just shows he knows nothing of the oath he took to protect the Constitution, or the fact that the first amendment protects most speech from interference by the government….but, hey…that never stopped the moron before, his ignorance has been on display for long enough now that this is, sadly, just par for the course…yeah, did you get that one? Ha, ha….luckily we have less than two years to have to put up with trump’s bullshit…or maybe even less as the multiple investigations close in on the crime family he heads…oh, and by the way…Mueller has found that Roger Stone DID conspire with Wikileaks and the Russians…and that information came from the Russians who were indicted by Mueller, not only from American evidence…so who is the colluder now, Donnie boy? Impeach…
How’s the 2nd day of your emergency?
Well…with the scary 2nd day of the idiot trump’s national emergency, I have to ask: how’s everybody doing? Are you surviving it? Are you preparing in case it gets worse? Did you get your food and water laid in since this is so serious an emergency? Have you built your emergency shelter yet? Did you get your duct tape and plastic to cover your windows? If you haven’t, you’d better get going since the wall is not there to protect us…just like it hasn’t been there to protect us for the past 240+ years and man, to think of the chances we took for all those years that maybe someone would come over the border to do a job that no American will do…please everyone, take care of your neighbors while this national emergency is going on and let’s hope we all survive it…headin for the bunker….impeach….
Trump is just nuts…
Well…okay, I will admit right away I didn’t watch much of the press conference that idiot boy gave to try to justify using “emergency powers” to try to build his stupid, stupid wall that was not funded by the congress…who control the appropriation of money to be spent by the government….and it is against the law to do what trump and his cronies are going to try to do…and that is steal money from other parts of government to build his racist wall, including money that is supposed to be spent on veterans and active duty service members. But, that is not the worst of it…the “news conference” was the most delusional piece of shit I have ever seen…and if this doesn’t invoke the 25th amendment and remove idiot boy from office, what will? trump is clearly unfit for the job and unable to perform the duties of the office, including the biggest one…to preserve and protect the constitution…this speech today shows he just doesn’t give a damn about that and is doing his best to destroy it…and the repubs, starting with Mitch McConnell is going along with it…making wreckage that will take decades of dem control to repair…and I am damn tired of our side having to clean up after the repubs…impeach…
trump’s just a damn loser…
Well…if the long, long record of the idiot trump in business wasn’t enough to show it, this latest defeat on “wall” funding along with the decision of the TVA to close two more coal-fired generating plants, that trump went out of his way to try to save, there is no conclusion to be drawn other than trump is just a damn loser and has been his entire life. Let’s not forget his 6 (or more) bankruptcies, either, and the only way that he “won” the election was by cheating with the Russians….something that is becoming clearer every day as the Mueller investigation churns along, chewing up everyone who has been in contact with the idiot. On any objective scale, the only way to describe trump is as a loser who has been propped up by daddy’s and other people’s money his entire life…I mean, how do you start out with over 400 million dollars and end up shilling for bottled water and steaks…and even those businesses went bust. Maybe that will be my new way to refer to trump…the loser trump…nope, I’ll use it a little but I just like idiot boy better…or moron, or ignoramus, you get the drift…impeach…
trump “invents” the 4th of July…
Well…geez, how damn stupid is trump? That’s not a rhetorical question with the latest idiocy to come out of the idiot in chief’s mouth yesterday. Talking to reporters, and with a straight face, idiot boy said he had an idea for celebrations in the summer, around July 4th that would include maybe fireworks and parades and that they could possibly be held across the country to celebrate the US and it’s people. The idiot then acted like it was a brand new idea that he should be given credit for and that no one has ever thought of before…okay…how can anyone be this damn dumb? What’s next? Taking credit for inventing a game that has people throwing a ball through a round steel hoop? Or how about grocery stores…after all, he has never been in one so how can they exist without trump? Man…I am tired of writing about the stupidity of this moron…I think it’s melting my brain cells and I don’t have that many left to give…impeach…
The idiot is becoming irrelevant…
Well…not sure if any of you watched the idiot’s rants last night, and if you did, not sure if you belong here…but even the conservative pundits are calling it an “incoherent, rambling mess” and have noted that he’s getting less and less coverage since his schtick is getting “boring” after hearing the same old crap for years now. Now, with the agreement on keeping the government open that was hammered out by conference committee in the House and Senate, idiot boy is not getting the 5.7 billion dollars he cried about for his wall…and, in fact, there is a part of the bill that specifically prohibits building his “big beautiful” concrete wall, instead financing a small fence that will only be a few miles long. Again, Nancy Pelosi has shown trump the new reality in Washington, that she is running the show and, along with senate repubs, has made idiot boy irrelevant since, if he throws a tantrum and won’t sign the bill, they are already talking about overriding his veto…adding to his embarrassment of being owned by Pelosi. The funding bill must be a pretty good compromise since fox news has been hammering it all day, trying to ensure that trump sees it and will then do what they say and veto the bill….it will be an interesting few days as we wait for the idiot to rant away on twitter and try to convince everyone that he wanted it just the way it is and it is a “Huuuuge” win for him…impeach….
