Watergate, watergate, watergate….

Well…only thirty days in and the trump administration is breaking the law just as much as Nixon did…or even more…the latest revelation is that the wh chief of staff leaned on the FBI to have them say that there is nothing to the investigation into trumps ties to Russian intelligence…essentially trying to quash the investigation and use the FBI as another propaganda arm of the administration, just like Fox news. Now, I have no trust in the FBI and Comey, but at least this time they told the wh to kiss off and stop trying to meddle in an ongoing investigation….the thing here is that one of the articles of impeachment that was levied against Nixon was that he tried to get the FBI to drop the investigation of Watergate and that is obstruction of justice…see any parallels? Okay Jason Chaffetz…is THIS enough for you to get an investigation going? No…I didn’t think so you partisan hack….geez….

February 24th

Well…feeling pretty crappy today and it is both mental and physical….and that’s why I’m running late today….falling back into a little depressive episode that started yesterday on the bike and that continues this morning…I wonder if I should wallow in it for a while and just let it run it’s course or try to force it away….hmmm….I did get some stuff done yesterday…got the car cleaned and ran some errands…made a little cash, too, so that was cool but had to make a run out late in the evening that wasn’t….okay…it’s 35 degrees out and I’m hearing thunder so I’m going to go take a look at it and have some coffee….more later….

Jack booted thugs….

Well…the only way to describe what is going on in this country with immigration is to highlight the immorality of it all…these supposed “christians” who elected the fraud who is in the white house has unleashed his jack booted thugs on people whose only crimes were wanting a better life and coming here to do the jobs that no one else will do. The idiot trump thinks that deporting 11 million people will mean that there will be 11 million more jobs for “real Americans”, but he is so ignorant that he doesn’t realize that the same thing was tried in Alabama a few years back….and the only result was that 60% of the crops there rotted in the fields and a lot of farmers went broke. The idiot was on tv today saying that his deportation force was ridding the country of “bad dudes”, drug dealers, and gang members…but, as we all know, trump lies all the time and the truth is that many of the people their dragnet has rounded up are just people trying to get a better life by coming here…like the woman who was hospitalized for treatment for a brain tumor and the jack booted thugs of the ICE came into her hospital room, shackled her and took her to a detention center…where she was cut off from her doctors and lawyers….I think trump should be sued by these detainees under the 14th amendment that states that due process is available to everyone in the US, not just citizens…and that can’t happen too soon….

February 23rd

Well….thought I had a bug coming on yesterday but it appears it was just under eating again…feel okay this morning and haven’t been coughing so that leaves me a little confused….I still feel warm, though, so I am not sure how that fits in….okay, maybe a little bug but I thing I can work through it today….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but today will be different….already have the grocery run in and am going to wash the car in a few minutes so I can wax it after it dries off…then the normal bike ride and then errands…and I have a late errand to run tonight and I hope it is still warm enough to put the top down…..it’s fun at night with the top down and the lights on…and I am going to make a little cash today and that will give me enough cash for next week so I can buy groceries again….but, first, I am going to have more coffee and read a little news so I can get a few more of these out today…more later….

Don’t screw with the intelligence community…

Well…I hope the rank amatuers in the white house continue their feud with the intelligence community as long as it takes to goad them into revealing all that they have on trump and his minions….just last week, after trump tweeted his contempt for them, magically, stories appeared throughout the media that tied the trump campaign to the Russians and detailed the contacts that multiple people from the campaign had with Russian intelligence….and I find it sick that a so-called president of the US has a better relationship with Russian intelligence agencies than he does with American ones….there was one telling comment from an intelligence source that said that trump can only look forward to spending the rest of his life in jail knowing what he knows about the lawbreaking done by the trump campaign….keep it up, trump…can’t wait to see you doing the perp walk in handcuffs….

Not sure what is going on….

Well…after getting through the winter without being sick once…I think my luck has run out…have been feeling like crap this afternoon with no energy and I’m sweating like crazy…and a cough has just started so I’m pretty sure it’s not from not eating enough…we’ll see in the morning I guess…crap…was hoping to get through to spring without any bugs this year….and I have a lot to do tomorrow and Friday so I guess I’ll just have to suck it up and shift down a gear to get it all done..wanted to get the car washed and waxed tomorrow….oh, well….I guess it will wait…..

Mark Chelgren, repub sooper genius…

Well….you gotta hand it to the repubs, they never miss a chance to try to enact unconstitutional laws across this country, and now we have another repub sooper genius trying it in Iowa. Mark Chelgren, sooper genius, has just introduced an unconstitutional bill that would require universities in Iowa to “balance” the political affiliation of professors and would force the state to use…hmmm….what’s the phrase? Oh, affirmative action, to make sure that white repub professors would be given preference in hiring until there is essentially an equal number of repubs and dems in the ranks. Now, I wonder why there are more dem professors than republicans…could it be that dems believe in science and the scientific method, and think that objective facts are what should be taught and not opinions? Or could it be that dems value the idea of giving back to the society and that we have a duty to try to make it better instead of plundering and pillaging it for personal profit? I think the dems in Iowa should attack this law with the same derisive use of “affirmative action” that the repubs used to demonize any preference to help make society more equal….and turn it around on this idiot…this sooper genius….

February 22nd

Well…another night of being good and that puts me here early today….feel a little sore but my legs were much better on the bike yesterday with most of the burning being gone….and it looks like I’ll be able to get out early today since it is already over 50 right now at a little after 7 in the morning….I made a little cash yesterday so I will have money for groceries this week and that takes a load off….but, the funny thing is I don’t have a lot to get this week…going to clean out the freezer and use what I have in there…lots of chicken and ribs so that will be the meals for the week…oh, and it was a top down run for errands yesterday so that was cool….don’t have a lot to do today but work around here…no cooking since I have so many leftovers…man, my allergies are terrible this morning and I think I may have to take something for it before the sneezing drives me nuts….more later…

Poor little snowflakes…

Well…the idiots on the right are raising up with indignation that the sane of us are not going along with their racist, ignorant destruction of this country….and are crying daily that we are not letting trump do his job…hey, I got news for you, snowflakes, it’s better for you if trump doesn’t do his job…if he does, there goes your social security, your medicare, your health insurance through the ACA, your clean air and water and your country’s standing in the world….but, I guess none of this really means anything to you…you just want the ability to be openly ignorant racists again and that is what trump gives you…but, if you think we’ll take this ruining of our country lying down, you are even crazier than you sound…and you can whine about us not “shutting up and letting trump do his job” just remember what you and your ilk did for 8 years under Obama…the birtherism, the overt racism, and the obstruction you people showed for 8 years is shutting up and letting the president do his job? Keep whining, snowflakes….we’re going to keep up the pressure until you and your troglodyte ideas are discarded to the dustbin of history…

I just noticed….

Well….I just noticed that I have broken the record for posts in a month but I don’t think that is enough…I am going to shoot for a hundred for the month and that means I need to get going…and there may even be a couple of fillers…who knows? One thing that I notice when I watch the travel shows is the huge difference in how inviting the people of other countries are…and I do understand that these are just shows and the reality could be different, but with all of the hateful rhetoric and actions coming out of trump and his supporters, it makes us here in the US looks like a bunch of small minded, unwelcoming fools that seem to have forgotten that the people that trump is demonizing are still people….that just want to live and get away from the perpetual war that we had a hand in starting. And that hate is now being institutionalized by the idiots that trump has surrounded himself with and by trump himself…when asked if he rejects the hate and threats that have been on the rise against Jewish people and organizations here…trump couldn’t even do that simple thing since he is just like the idiots who surround him…full of hate and racism…just like his followers….that is not the rest of us here in the US….but we are being tarred with that ugly brush…and we don’t like it….
