Why hasn’t the idiot been prosecuted?

Well…I’ve had this thought kicking around in my head a while and thought I’d try to get it out of there…whey hasn’t idiot boy been prosecuted for his malfeasance during the start of the covid pandemic? With estimates saying that his failures cost an additional 130,000 American lives, he at least should be prosecuted for negligent homicide and be locked up for the rest of his life…especially since all of their decisions were politically motivated…especially at the start when it looked like the virus was only attacking blue states and minorities and they were perfectly okay with that. What needs to happen, and I am confused why it hasn’t, is a investigation of the pandemic response from start to finish to find out what really happened…and then the doj needs to get involved to prosecute anyone who made it worse as they just did in Brazil with the investigators recommending charges against Bolsinaro…and since he is considered a mini trump, trump should be charged as well….geez…

The only difference…

Well…I’ve been around on the Earth a long time and have lived with vaccinations the entire time…I even remember doctors coming into the schools and vaccinating everyone for smallpox…and everyone can look at their right or left shoulder and still see the scar from that vaccination…and there were no teachers or parents bitching that they wouldn’t let their kids get vaccinated….or letting their kids get sick and die just because they are morons. With every one of my kids and myself, any time a new vaccine was ready to be used, we all went to the doctor and got it…and I just got my third covid vaccine to go with my flu vaccine for this year….and there are about 8 vaccines that kids have to have before they can go to school and no one bitched about that but a small group of morons who would believe the anti vaxx lies that were spread by word of mouth…the only difference between then and now is fox “news” and the anti vaxx assholes there who spew lies and facebook that does the same…they are responsible for hundreds of thousands of new deaths here in the US since, with the delta wave, over 96% of the deaths are in the unvacinated….who to a one parrot the fox news talking points when they are asked why they didn’t get vaccinated. So fox is murdering people with their lies as is facebook and this is as good a reason as any to break both of them up and hold them responsible for it…how? I don’t know but there must be something that can be done to stop their corrosive effect on our society…geez…

The newest whine…

Well…damn, repub business owners are a bunch of whiners….first they whined about not being able to find workers and pressured repub controlled states to cut off extended unemployment benefits so people would be forced to take their crappy jobs again…and, when that didn’t work, and they saw that businesses that raised wages and treated their people better were flooded with applicants, they created a new whine saying that they can’t make a profit if they raise wages or benefits. Hey guys, do you think that this is your “market” that you revere so much at work? People just aren’t going to work for slave wages anymore…and if you can’t make a profit without them, do you think you should even be in business? Look, this is just like the whining they do whenever workers get a few crumbs out of their obscene profits…just like Papa John went on and on about when Obamacare was passed and he could have provided insurance for everyone in his company by just raising his pizza prices by 30 cents each…and he was doing all this whining as he was building a 14 million dollar house…so he could have afforded to absorb the 30 cents per pizza but no, these entitled assholes just have to play the victim all the time and blame someone other than themselves….what a bunch of snowflakes…geez…

Shouldn’t they be held responsible?

Well…it’s pushing two in the aft and I still haven’t come up with a topic that I want to talk about…nope that’s not true…I have been reading a series done by Kos over at Dailykos that highlights how delusional some of the vaccine resistant folks are as they slide down into severe sickness and death…and one of the things that is not reported in the news much is how painful and awful a severe case of covid is and how it destroys these families who have be led into not taking the vaccine by fox and the rest of the right wing assholes….and the question came to me is “shouldn’t they be held accountable?” Just Tuesday, it was estimated that the idiot trump’s bungling of the response to the pandemic cost from 130,000 to 140,000 lives of our fellow Americans…shouldn’t he be held accountable for that? Families across this country are being destroyed by the right wing propaganda that oozes out of the right every damn day and I really can’t understand what the gain is for fox and the rest of them…I mean there has been hundreds of thousands of repubs who have dies and will never vote for them again and I can’t understand what the benefit is to them….or is it that they are just a bunch of psychopaths that get their jollies out of watching people suffer? Whatever it is, it is one of the most sick things I have ever seen…geez…

Rich whiners….

Well…after the details started to come out on how the new infrastructure and BBB bills are going to be paid for by making the rich and corporations pay their fair share, you could predict that the rich would come out and start whining about how much the tax increase is going to cost them…with the first whiner out of the box being Elon Musk who said that he would owe almost 10 billion dollars a year…and went on and on how it isn’t fair blah, blah, blah…I guess he didn’t think anyone would report that with the increase in the price of Tesla and spaceX stock that happened Monday, he made 36 billion dollars in one frickin day…yep, that’s billion with a B and this asshole is whining he may have to pay 10 billion in taxes for a year? He has more money reserves than most small countries and he still bitches about having to pay taxes…Elon, remember what this country did for you to make you so damn rich…don’t you think is would be fair that you pay some taxes to help pay for the infrastructure that the US government built for you? And pay some taxes for the contracts they have given SpaceX that essentially built your company? I have had enough of the rich just whining when they don’t get everything they want….and it is happening more and more and more…what the hell do they have to bitch about? geez….

Quit using facebook…

Well…with the revelations that have come out about what goes on inside of facebook over the past couple of weeks, people just need to stop using facebook for all of the damage it has done across the world. And just today, an article came out that shows that Zuckerberg runs the whole show and the board of directors is just a sham and have nothing to do with corporate governance….so now we know that it is Zuckerberg alone who is responsible for all of the lies and misinformation that oozes from it…and for getting trump elected and giving us the January 6th insurrection since facebook was used by the attackers to organize and plan the attack. One person should never have that much power and something needs to be done about it, whether it is breaking up the company, forcing it to take on an independent board of directors…or my favorite, just stop using it and get it the hell out of our lives….you can live without it…as I do….the only thing I use it for is to keep up with my family but not even very much of that….just today, one of the company’s officers warned the employees that there is going to be more and more bad news about facebook and what they have been doing to help the right wingers destroy this country…and all for just money…just for Zuckerberg’s greed. So, just stop using it, when you do that ad revenue goes down and you aren’t helping that idiot wreak more damage just so he can line his pockets…geez….

Seniors get screwed again…

Well…as the details become available on the bills wending there way through congress, one thing is clear…seniors get screwed again. Where the initial bill started out with dental, vision, and hearing being added to Medicare coverage…the version of the bill that is going to pass has none of those in it…they may include an 800 dollar “voucher” to cover some dental work but I think they will probably sacrifice that to Manchin and Sinema since they are so in the pocket of big business that don’t want anything good for the people of the country if they can’t make a profit from it. They have no problem giving the Pentagon 46 billion dollars they don’t even want, but they can’t get seniors out of dental pain or pay for community college for our kids….this is such a slap in the face for everyone on Medicare and I hope the dems will use the repub opposition to everything in this bill to beat them over the head with it in 2022…if two fricking repubs would have negotiated in good faith, we could have taken care of a wide swath of the country and made their lives better…made my life better…now, I can afford to spend a couple of thousand on the dental work I need, but the majority of seniors can’t and it is just sick to make them suffer to avoid taxing the rich just a tiny little bit…god, I hate these people….geez….

Why hasn’t he been arrested yet?

Well…I’m getting pretty tired of rich people getting to do all kinds of crimes and then just walk away tra la la….and you’re probably tired of me talking about the idiot trump but damn, another instance of tax fraud at one of his golf courses was just reported yesterday and there appears to be enough evidence to indict the criminal for the same damn thing he has been doing all of his life….inflating the worth of his golf course to get bigger loans and then deflating it when he was paying taxes on it…this is felony tax fraud and he has done it on every property he has ever owned and yet no indictment, no arrests, no consequences….I wonder why he never has to get an appraisal to get loans…is that just for the little people? I know I had to get one when I got the loan for this place…or I wonder if he has appraisers who are in on the scam? Whatever the case, these simple actions are against the law but not one damn prosecutor has the guts to charge this asshole…and the corrosive effect on the rule of law is seen every damn day…and the repubs are the ones who are doing it…they are even trying to protect Steve Bannon to keep him from being held accountable for plotting the January 6th insurrection by blocking his arrest for ignoring the house subpoenas…this bullshit never would have happened when I was younger…but the modern repubs are truly the party of lies and cheating and they are going to kill this country…geez…

Some thoughts…

Well…just got finished for the day and thought I’d just muse a little on some thoughts I had on the bike…you know, the idiot trump really doesn’t know how anything works…especially the government…and he has some really dumb lawyers…just earlier in the week, idiot boy sued the January 6th committee citing “executive privilege” on “his” records dealing with the insurrection….man, I’m just sitting here shaking my head about that one….first, not one damn piece of these records are “his”…they belong to the US government and his ability to claim executive privilege ended when he was no longer the executive…that belongs to Biden now and he has control over the records and has said that the committee can have anything they want to be able to do their jobs and figure out who was responsible for the attack…and to that end the committee has voted to hold Steve Bannon in contempt of congress for refusing to provide the records they have subpoenaed…and idiot boy has told him that he doesn’t have to using the same bogus claim of “executive privilege” the he is trying to use to keep his ass out of jail….so there is some movement…finally…to hold the people responsible for the insurrection accountable…it’s about damn time…geez..

Oleg Deripaska got raided…

Well…okay, you can be forgiven for not knowing who this guy is but you should when it comes to the idiot trump’s criminality…..Oleg is one of Putin’s buddies and has been involved with all of Putin’s election interference and money laundering, and is one person who is linked to trump in multiple ways…oh, and ole Mitch, too…when idiot boy removed the sanctions that Oleg’s business had on it so he could build an aluminum plant in Kentucky…and even repubs said the whole thing reeked of corruption. So today, the FBI raided his house in DC and the interesting thing is that the raid is said to be related to a case being pursued in the SDNY where there are at least two investigations of idiot boy going on right now…so, we can only hope that this is related to one of them and Oleg starts to sing to stay out of prison and takes trump and McConnell down with him….an interesting development to say the least….
