Well…with everything happening, I really haven’t had the mindset to do too much in politics but I am going to try now….there was some good news on the idiot trump from the other day when the NY times reported that Paul Manafort has been warned that he is going to be indicted for his many crimes and that I hope has to do with trumps campaign and the Russian money that was spent to elect him….it appears that they have Manafort on quite a few counts and now the squeeze is on to get him to flip on the rest of the trump criminal enterprise….with revealing that Facebook has been issued warrants to go after the ad buys that the Russians did to interfere, that leaves Jared Kushner on the hotseat since it was his job to do the social media portion of the campaign especially the “micro targeting” that swung the 77,000 votes that got the idiot elected. So, as I’ve said before, the noose is quickly tightening on trump and his cronies….and the deliciousness of a perp walk for this crew is growing ever closer…maybe a “Thanksgiving surprise”…impeach….

They’re at it again….
Well…get your phone fingers ready again…the repubs are at it again…trying to take healthcare away from 25 million people…again. Here’s the thing….no one wants this to happen…over 70% of the people polled want the ACA to be fixed, not destroyed…so, who are the repubs doing this for? Hospitals don’t want it, doctors don’t want it, the insurance companies don’t want it….and the 25 million people who will lose their insurance sure as hell don’t want it….this is a huge mistake for the repubs…the only thing that will come out of this is Medicare for all and the insurance companies know it…so, I wonder why we haven’t heard a lot from them against this debacle? Could it be that they have cut some kind of deal with the repubs to keep quiet? One of the most egregious cuts in this new piece of crap is the subsidies that make insurance affordable…they will be gone tomorrow if we let this pass….and without them, no one will be able to afford health insurance in the private market…but, that’s just what the repubs want…if you’re not rich enough to afford insurance without the subsidies, you can just go to hell and die…..dial the phone and be heard….
Boycott Motel 6
Well…just read a little article that reported that Motel 6 is working with the ICE gestapo to help them deport undocumented workers in Arizona. Yep, every morning, the managers at Motel 6 e-mail ICE the list of the people who are staying at their cheezy little motels and then ICE shows up to interrogate and arrest anyone with a hispanic sounding name….now, this is all being done without any warrants or any oversight by any government agency…it’s just the gestapo of ICE breaking the law with the help of this corporation. We need to call for and boycott all Motel 6′s in this country until they stop this illegal action…after all, would you want the government to know where you are staying when you travel? Boycott…
Tax cuts will fix hurricane damage?
Well…are you really surprised the the idiot trump came out today with tweets saying that the damage done by Harvey and Irma can only be fixed by big tax cuts for the rich and corporations? It is the repub mantra that we have heard over and over for the past 30 years that whatever problem happens, tax cuts will fix them…unemployment high? Tax cuts will fix it. Huge deficits? Tax cuts will fix it. People starving? Tax cuts will fix it. Now, I wonder what the economic mechanism is that will convert tax cuts for the rich into replacing the homes destroyed by the hurricanes? Is is magic? Are the rich going to swoop in and repair homes out of the goodness of their hearts? Are corporations going to turn the tax cuts into fixing the destroyed infrastructure in Texas and Florida? If you believe that, you’ve drunk the repub kool aid and facts don’t mean anything to you anymore….let’s put it bluntly, tax cuts don’t do anything but enrich the rich…and make ceo’s even richer…they do nothing for anyone else…geez….
Russian “anchor babies”
Well….if you listened to any idiot repub during the last election, you heard on of the false themes that they harped and harped on that Mexicans were coming here to have their children so they would have US citizenship and then could bring their families here after they turned 18…never mind that “Anchor babies” was never a thing…that the Mexican babies being born here were because their parents were here doing the hard jobs that Americans won’t do and it was just projection that they thought they were breaking the law….but now, guess who’s properties are being used for just that by the Russians? Yep, there are 5 trump properties in Florida that are being advertised in Russia for just that purpose…for “birth tours” where wealthy Russians pay upwards to 75K a month to come here and stay until their babies are born, resulting in the possibility of the children having dual citizenship…and then setting their parents up for getting preferential treatment when they apply to come here to live. What about it repubs? What about these “anchor babies”? Is it not a problem anymore because these babies are not “brown”? I don’t have any hope that any repub will do anything about this…but people need to know how corrupt trump and his cronies are…impeach….
Flee Rush, Flee….
Well…if you remember from the other day, ole Rush Limbaugh went on a long rant saying that it was a lie how strong hurricane Irma was and that strength was to just push the liberal climate change agenda…well, it’s funny how things change in a couple of days….ole Rush is still pushing the “fake news” lie on his show but get this….he’s evacuating and fleeing Irma today…so, we now know he doesn’t believe a damn word he is saying about the strength of the storm or even about climate change…it’s all just bullshit to keep the rubes that listen to him happy…just like all repubs…they just lie and lie and lie to their followers…then show their true colors when the going gets tough…flee Rush, flee! Geez….
Is Rush Limbaugh really this dumb?
Well…with the supersized hurricane Irma crushing the islands in the Carribean, is there any question that Rush Limbaugh would come out with a long rant yesterday saying that the hurricane is part of a liberal plot…something, something…global warming. The gist of his rant was that the National Weather Service is overestimating the strength of Irma to support their “hoax” of global warming…yep, this idiot is putting his listeners at risk by trying to convince them that the 185 MPH winds that have been observed are “fake news” and are just part of the “liberal agenda”….and the buildings that are gone in the first places Irma struck are fake, too….how anyone listens to this idiot anymore is way beyond me….and when his home in Palm Springs disappears in the hurricane, I’m sure he’ll blame it on the “deep state” that is hindering his buddy trump from making America great again…what a load of crap….
Irma
Well….have been following the development of hurricane Irma over the past few days and all I can say is cripes…the strongest Atlantic hurricane ever recorded with winds over 185 mph and it is still strengthening…..now, two record breaking hurricanes in the span of two weeks? And another one starting up behind Irma? This is exactly what the climate experts predicted would be the result of climate change…more extreme weather….more storms, more rain, more flooding…more damage…but of course climate change is not real or caused by humans burning fossil fuel if you listen to any repub out there….I wonder what it will take for these idiots to be convinced? Irma is predicted to turn and run up the east coast…maybe a direct hit on DC would do it? Nope, the modern repub is just too damn dumb to learn anything….
Who is going to rebuild Houston?
Well…when hurricane Katrina decimated New Orleans, over 100,000 undocumented workers were essential to getting that town back on it’s feet….but, with the crackdown of the ICE gestapo on undocumented people in the US after the idiot trump, who is going to rebuild Houston? All across the country, construction companies are trying desperately to find workers to replace the undocumenteds who have been arrested and deported or who have been scared away from working by the ICE raids that are breaking up families in the age of trump. Now, part of the reason that these construction companies can’t find workers is that they don’t pay very well…but another is that the construction skills that these undocumented people have gained by working their butts off are leaving with them and there are not many citizens that have those skills. So, again, the shortsighted racist in the WH is decimating another industry…along with agriculture, just so he can make his racist supporters happy…I wonder when business people across this country that voted for the idiot are going to start to revolt…probably never since they are probably racists, too…impeach….
Here comes the IRS…
Well….just waned to do a shorty on a little bit of good news if you want to see the criminal trump perp walked out of the WH….the latest addition to Robert Mueller’s team that is investigating the trump crime family’s many, many transgressions is an elite IRS team that investigates financial crimes…like money laundering….and guess what they already have in their possession? Yep, the idiot trump’s tax returns…and, if he is anything like the rest of the rich in this country, he cheated on his taxes and that will be another count against him when he is finally charged with the multitude of crimes he has committed. Of course the idiot’s protectors in the repub party have already started to bleat that the IRS is biased against trump and you can’t trust them to be honest…I just hope that all of of the repubs out there go down with the idiot when the end comes….impeach…..
