Tin soldiers and Nixon comin’….

Well…just a short one on one of the darkest days in this nation’s history…48 years ago today, 4 students were killed at Kent State University while exercising their first amendment rights to protest the actions of their government…I was 16 at the time and was staring down the barrel of the draft with the real possibility of getting sent to Vietnam….that’s all I have to say right now….just listened to “Ohio” by Neil Young and it still sends chills down my spine…..

How ya likin trump now, soybean farmers?

Well…I just loved this little bit of news that came out today that, in response to the idiot trumps tariffs on China, that China has just stopped buying American soybeans…now, I feel for the farmers that are going to be hurt by this, but they voted for the idiot and foisted him on the whole country so I don’t feel too much for them…in just the past week, China has cancelled 70,000 tons of soybean orders that are worth over 30 million dollars…and that is going to put some of them out of business and cause job losses across the red states who elected this jackass….now, I hope these morons who voted for this know nothing, ignorant, moron will remember what he has done to them come November…but, they probably won’t…just like the evangelicals that voted overwhelmingly for the serial sexual assaulter and continue to support him even after revelation after revelation of just how terrible a person trump is, these farmers are just too damn dumb to vote in their own self interest…hey, farmers…turn off fox news for a while and let your intelligence come back…maybe then you’ll vote for competency and knowledge in government…yeah, probably not….but, her e-mails….geez…

Call them what they are…traitors…

Well…not sure if you’ve read about this or not, but the higher ups in both the FBI and the Justice Department think that the reason for the repubs in the House asking for documents from the Mueller investigation is to give them to the WH to help the idiot trump defend himself in his conspiracy with the Russians to steal the election….now let that sink in a minute…and now let’s replace idiot boy with any common thug criminal  (which he is) and read that again…how would you feel if the House repubs were using their investigative power to get information from an ongoing investigation of crime by the mob, and then gave it to the mob boss being investigated? That’s exactly what is happening here and only a traitor to this country would undercut the Justice department from doing their job….especially since it involves a foreign power who has attacked our country and is continuing those attacks while every damn repub in power looks the other way or actively helps them by supporting the criminal in the WH. As I said yesterday, there is a reason for all of those House repubs trying to protect trump, they are in it up to their necks in Russian collusion just as he is…and some of them will be going to jail…just as he is…impeach…

May 3rd

Well…running a little late today with doing the grocery run and not getting up til late….and I got wet with it raining now and for the next few hours so it will be a late start on the bike today…had a pretty nice day yesterday with getting out to have a couple with T and had quite a few laughs…it’s always fun to see her…and I had the top down over and back with SD on the player…felt happy for the first time in a while….but, I didn’t get much else done so I’ll have to do some work today….I do need to clean and get some computer work done but that will wait until later after I have coffee and read some news….I’m not sure where Meijers gets the split chicken breasts they sell…they are mutants wherever they get them…I got three and they were almost 5 pounds…can get three meals out of each….weird…more later….

“The Justice Department won’t be extorted”

Well….this is what it has come to in the repubs and the idiot trump’s administration….Rod Rosenstein, answering questions at a forum the other day said that…that the repubs in the House are trying to extort the Justice department into stopping the investigation in trump and his ongoing lawlessness…let that sink in for a minute….did you ever hear that about Obama’s administration? Nope, you sure as hell didn’t…and you never had Eric Holder having the threat of impeachment used against him to stop an investigation into Obama…what the hell is wrong with these people? I have a theory that the Russian collusion conspiracy goes way deeper than just trump and his campaign…and is going to dive into the heart of the repub party starting with Ryan and McConnell and going down to Nunes and the rest of the house repubs…after all, the NRA funneled over 30 million Russian dollars to repubs up and down the ticket and they are now hunkering down and getting ready to have all of their dirty laundry exposed to the public…and it is really, really dirty….impeach….

May 2nd

Well…running on time today and feel pretty good this morning…except for my heel and I am going to go out and try to get something to treat it after the workout and bike ride…slept okay last night but I was up and down all night…woke up for the last time around 4:30 but did get one more hour of sleep in after that….didn’t put the heat on for the first time this year last night since it stayed around 70 for the low…and that means I can get out on the bike as soon as I finish the workout…didn’t get anything done yesterday but I will have a few things to do today but not until I have more coffee…it’s not working yet…and I do need to read some news so I can think about that on the bike and come back for another one later this morning….more later….

Rick Snyder is not too bright…

Well…thought I’d go with a little bit of local politics today after just seeing an ad that our idiot governor has done for his underling who is running for governor. In the ad, Snyder touts the “accomplishments” of his administration and he actually uses right to work as an accomplishment…yep he’s proud of the hand he has had in killing unions in this country and the result of lower wages for the people who are left working here…I mean, who the hell is that aimed at? At best, right to work is supported by only about 40% of the people in Michigan and those are all repubs…does he think that any independent who supports working people is going to think that’s a plus? I wonder if he should put in new ads that he poisoned an entire city and has done nothing to help Flint? I wonder if another ad should be that he passed the biggest tax increase on retirees in the history of the state? Or, another one that he and his repub cronies rigged the system so even though dems got more votes total in the last election, repubs control the entire state? You get my drift…The ads against Brian Calley are going to write themselves….and Snyder is not too bright if he thinks his “accomplishments” will sway anyone to continue the policies that have screwed over workers across the state…geez…

May 1st

Well….running early today with getting up at 6 or so….slept okay last night but feel a little slow this morning and I am going to ease into it….had a nice day yesterday and even got some color with the top down out and back to pool…which I lost but had lots of fun…it was nice to get out of here for a change…didn’t get much done around here yesterday and I probably won’t do much today…it is already almost 60 outside so I can get on the bike in just a t-shirt….and I think that will be only the second time this year….okay, need some more coffee….and to read the news so I’m going to do that and then come back later to add to this one….more later…
