trump’s going to be surprised…

Well…it just dawned on me that, with trumps’s delusional response to being named “individual #1″ in the Cohen filings, tweeting that the filings “Totally clears the president. Thank you”…that there must be many people in the WH that are just blowing smoke up trump’s ass…telling him only what he wants to hear to keep the man-child in chief from throwing tantrums. If this is the case, and I think it is, trump is going to be really, really surprised when more shit hits the fan and he finally realizes he is screwed and faces many, many years in prison after he is out of office. Here’s the thing, all of these idiots in his circle, and in rich people’s circles across this country have been able to lie and steal and do whatever they want with little or no consequences so why wouldn’t he think he could continue to do it? There are finally people in the government and in the general public who have had enough of this crap…and they are starting to make people understand that the laws apply to everyone, and being rich is not a get out of jail free card…it’s about damn time…impeach….

December 9th

Well…running a little late today with having to warm up the car before I could go out and get the paper…it’s only 13 degrees out there and the frost was pretty thick on the glass…feel a little better this morning after trying to eat more yesterday and I think I’ll need to keep that up today…have been under on calories since I haven’t been able to get on the bike but that may end in the next couple of days with the thaw that is coming…may go out later to see what the trails look like but it needs to warm up quite a bit before that…probably in the afternoon…had a good blood pressure reading this morning with it getting down to 110/81 and my RHR of only 56 so that was cool….has been pretty good lately so I’m no longer concerned…but it is fun to play with the machine…didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I am going to clean a little today…still eating leftovers…kind of …I did get 3 dozen eggs Friday at 79 cents each and found a pound of bacon in the freezer so eggs, toast, and bacon was dinner last night and there will be some egg salad in the future,too…and Tom is getting a dozen tomorrow…it’s nice to have a change from veggies and chicken….but, I still have chicken to be cooked tomorrow so maybe wrap it with bacon?   More later….

There’s a perp walk coming…

Well….I wonder if the idiot trump really understands what happened yesterday? After his final tweet of the day where he thinks he was exonerated, it is abundantly clear that he has sunken into a pool of delusion and is completely detached from reality. What really happened and what is clear to everyone in the reality based world is that trump has been named by the SDNY as a felon who directed Michael Cohen to commit campaign finance crimes…and the key thing to remember is that this is not Mueller saying it…it is trump’s own justice department saying he’s a felon so the whole “illegal” Mueller investigation bleating that the idiot has done just doesn’t work here. No matter when trump gets out of office, whether by removal or by the ending of his term, there is a perp walk in his future…after all, Micheal Cohen is going to do 4 years in prison for these same crimes so there is no way the SDNY is going to let trump walk free and he can’t depend on a pardon to save his ass. This is just the start of the revelations of trump’s criminality and once the dems take control of the House in January, the shit is going to hit the fan for trump…it is going to be delicious watching the criminal in chief twist in the wind as it is found that he is the most criminal president in the history of the country…and if he actually could read, he would have plenty of time in prison to read all about it…impeach…

December 8th

Well…running a little late today and there is good reason for it…woke up at 5 and decided to try to go back to sleep…for the second time this week it worked and I didn’t get out of bed until 7 so that was kind of cool…not sure if it helped with energy or not but we’ll see a little later…I did have a nice lunch with T yesterday with lots of fun and laughs so that made a it a good day…but I didn’t get on the bike and that makes it three days now…that makes me grumpy and today looks like another one so I may have to start working out every day to make up for it…the weird thing is I’m still sore everywhere and I shouldn’t be…so now maybe it’s not from riding the bike? Still may take something for it today but we’ll see about that, too. Not much to do today….have been talking about cleaning the kitchen for a week now and just might get to it…but, there is soccer on in a few minutes and I need more coffee so cleaning will have to wait…more later…

Trump directed a criminal conspiracy…

Well…the Cohen sentencing documents just dropped and the SDNY has what should be a bombshell…that the idiot trump “directed a criminal conspiracy” to violate federal election laws to increase his odds of winning the presidency by deceiving voters.  Where’s your witch hunt now donnie? There is evidence that trump is and was a felon who cheated to “win” the election…yep, read that one again…in the first case coming from one of his cronies, trump is accused of being a cheating felon…I wonder who will lead the chants of “lock him up”?  Will this matter to the repubs? Not one bit if their actions to this point are any indication…the thing to remember is that this isn’t even part of the Russia investigation, this is a separate crime that trump committed while he was conspiring with  the Russians. So, what will happen now? Will the repubs do anything now that they have the evidence that trump is a  felon? I’m going to stop here and wait for the Manafort sentencing documents to drop…and maybe that will make trump a multiple felon….should we start a trump felony count? That may be fun…impeach…

It’s 7:41 and I’m bored…

Well…it’s 7:41 and I’m bored already…with knowing I won’t be able to get on the bike today the boredom has set in early and I’m not sure if it’s part of the returning depression or something else entirely….this has been going on for a couple of weeks now and the one thing I do know is that I don’t like it…I suppose I could start cleaning but I don’t want to right now….I know I recognize the feeling with being depressed off and on over my life but it has been quite a while since I have had to use the methods I know to ameliorate it…and I’m not sure I want to…have been feeling quite numb lately and this may be a way to reset that and start to enjoy things again…okay, enough whining…need more coffee and to read more news…there are some bombshells coming this afternoon and I want to be ready to comment…more later….

December 7th

Well…having a hard time getting started this morning and I’m not sure why….and I’m a little grumpy from not being able to ride the past two days and it looks like today with be number 3…crap….slept pretty crappy last night and I’m feeling lousy from it…along with not eating enough….I did make some chicken in the instant pot yesterday that came out good but I have to remember that chicken legs without skin really doesn’t have many calories….at least I’m not riding the bike to make it worse…I did get out to have a couple with G and I don’t know why…not too much fun and I won’t be doing that again…have to connect up my battery booster to the car this morning since I let the battery run down yesterday and it barely started….have to remember to disconnect the battery every time I let the thing sit for any length of time…I do have plans to meet up with T for lunch today and that should be fun…haven’t seen her for a while and I need a few laughs….more later….

Hey, trump voters…more winning!

Well…couldn’t get out on the bike this morning so I thought I’d come here early…for me…and do one of these on the crashing stock market that has gotten worse this morning…if you remember on Tuesday, stocks lost over 800 points and that slide has continued today with it down another 400 points in the first hour of trading…so what does that mean? It means, trump voters, that you have lost almost 6% of your IRA or 401K in the past two trading days…there was no trading Wed for the Bush funeral. Let’s keep this pretty simple for you guys since I know you don’t do math or reality very well…if you had 100K in your accounts Monday, today you have 94K and tomorrow, who knows? I do know that the idiot you voted for has no economic clue so, if you’re looking to him to stop this debacle, look somewhere else….the idiot in chief can’t do anything about it. I really don’t want to laugh at you guys but damn, who would have thought that a stupid reality tv show star could screw you so badly? I did…what a bunch of morons…impeach…

December 6th

Well…going to be out of sequence this morning with not waiting to get the grocery run done before doing this…getting up at 5:34 leaves me a lot of time before I head out so I thought I’d get this done before I go….slept okay last night but feel a little grumpy today after being depressed last night…can’t figure out why that is but I guess I’ll just roll with it until I feel better…part of it may be not getting on the bike yesterday…it was just too slick and there was too much snow on the trail to be comfortable so I took the day off…may have another one off today but I am going to try to get out after the sun comes up…so that means I’ll have to do another workout after I get back here and have coffee….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and all I have to do is cook today…going to make some chicken thighs and veggies in the instant pot today…going to use some pasta sauce as the liquid and just see how that comes out…and I am going to meet up with G later for a couple….haven’t seen here in a couple of months so that should be fun…more later…oh, happy “L” day!  More later….

The Flynn sentencing…

Well…the filing in the Michael Flynn case came out last night and it left quite a few questions…much of it was redacted but there are a few things that can be inferred from it even with the redactions. There were three investigations that Flynn was cooperating with, not just the special counsel….and the SOC investigation was not even listed first in the paperwork but some mysterious criminal investigation that only the title was left unblacked…and the third investigation was completely blacked out so there was no clue to what it was or is….one thing to remember is that all three of these investigations are still ongoing and that is the reason for the redactions. One of the big clues for how serious Flynn’s cooperation is to the idiot trump and his cronies is that Mueller is recommending no jail time for Flynn…making sure that the sentencing judge knows how valuable this information is…and to get Flynn from a potential 5 years in jail down to no jail time means he gave up someone above him…and that leaves Kushner, Pence, or the idiot trump…..that is my speculation of how these things normally work, anyway….so, trump and Giuliani going on and on that the investigation is over is just so much whistling past the graveyard….there is more to come and it is not going to be good for the repubs….let’s hope they have McConnell in there, too…impeach…
