Well…look, did you expect that the idiot trump would be chastised at all by being only the 3 president impeached in the history of the country as Susan Collins thinks? Nope, I’m sure you didn’t…and today he is back at criming again by calling up Bill Barr and telling him to contest the sentencing recommendations for his crony Roger Stone of 7 to9 years for the 7 felonies he was convicted of, and threatening to pardon him if Barr didn’t do what he wanted. Now, in any other *presidency, this would be enough to get calls from his own party to cease and desist this unacceptable interference in the justice department or for him to resign…but no, we have Barr grinning and saying yup, I’ll help you commit more crimes to get your crony off and not one damn repub senator or rep saying word one…so now what do we do? Adam Schiff, start preparing a new set of impeachment articles and load them up with all of the times idiot boy obstructed justice…starting with the 10 times in the Mueller report, and then adding every other damn time he has done it in the past 3 years…and then send it to the senate and have mitch have to deal with it…one benefit of that is that if moscow mitch has to deal with that, he can’t get any more right wing, unqualified judges approved..since every one that he rams through has been judged unqualified by the ABA. If this is the only tool we have to work with until the election, then we have to use it to make sure the public knows how corrupt and wrong all of this crap is….

The fascism is supercharged now…
Well…we’ve witnessed the predictable damn result of the repub conspiracy to protect trump at the cost of our democracy…it’s not enough that trump is doing the rounds where the repub senators who ignored all the evidence and acquitted the idiot are giving him standing ovations, but now his cronies in the senate are now going after his enemies starting with Hunter Biden where trump has directed the IRS to release every bit of information they have on him…including his tax returns and anything that may have come up in earlier partisan investigations trying to dig up dirt on his father…and leading the charge is chief toady Lindsey Graham who telegraphed this move weeks ago, trying to curry favor with the fascist in chief. Now, folks…take a look at the modern repub party that has given up any fig leaf of legitimacy and have gone full fascist by using the power of the government to go after private citizens…no matter that three investigations have found no wrongdoing by either of the Bidens, but in the fascist state that the repubs have created that looks just like frickin Russia, it is now okay to do anything they feel like to anyone they want…what’s next? Disappearing political foes? I am so depressed by this crap that I am going to stop reading the news for a while and probably won’t post much about it unless it’s good news…just can’t take seeing my country destroyed for an asshole like trump….
A cool bit of shade…
Well…not sure if you watched the SOTU last night, and I’ll admit I didn’t since I can’t stand trump and how his stench has polluted all of the institutions he touches…I mean, giving the presidential medal of freedom to frickin Rush Limbaugh? The guy who has done more damage to this country than anyone other than trump or mcconnell? Not sure how long it’s going to take to fumigate that stench but I’ll bet the dem who is elected is going to make almost a full time job of it….and I want a damn asterisk by every judge, war criminal, and medal of freedom that idiot boy has presented….but, that’s not what this one is about…at the end of the lying, racist speech last night, Nancy threw a huge bunch of shade at the idiot by theatrically tearing up her copy of idiot boy’s speech on live tv right over trump’s shoulder…and of course, the repubs thought it was the worst, most devisive thing that has ever happened in the history of the country…and that made me laugh…trump has shown nothing but contempt for everything in this country and it’s institutions…so for Nancy to show her utter contempt for trump was a fitting response…and it will be a rallying point for the rest of the year until the election when we throw trump and his cronies out…yay Nancy…
Mitch the great strategist?
Well…I know there has been this mythology that has arisen around moscow mitch that he is this “great strategist” when it comes to him running the senate but why? When you control the entire thing and have 53 trump synchophents to support anything you tell them to do, what great strategy is needed…especially when all you have to do is say no? When has he taken a losing situation and turned it into a win? Or when has he been in the minority and gotten what he wanted? This is just a tired shorthand lie that the media is telling about him…what makes him so great? Blocking Merrick Garland? When all he had to do is say a petulant “no” and the vote on him didn’t happen? Or even today, when he is blocking calling witnesses or getting documents from the idiot trump…why is that such “great strategy”? In the short term it may keep trump from getting convicted but it is going to lose them the WH and the senate in the fall…is that part of his “great strategy”? It may even lead to him losing his own seat in the senate since over 70% of the people in this country want to see the witnesses and hear from them first hand…and the dems are crushing the repubs in fundraising partially due to ole mitch’s shenanigans trying to protect trump…another great strategy? All I have to say is keep it up moscow mitch…you and idiot boy just might do what the dems haven’t been able to…destroy the repub party and save this country….
Bolton, Bolton, Bolton….
Well….how the hell could all of the repub senators be “blindsided” by reports that John Bolton says in his soon to be published book that, In August of last year, trump told him that he was withholding aid to Ukraine until he got investigations into the dems and the Bidens? The damn book was submitted to the WH for review on the 30th of December and you can be sure that the day it showed up, Moscow Mitch knew what was in it and in his “coordination” with the WH included telling other repub senators that Bolton had blown up the lie that trump and ole Mitch were pushing….and that made it even more important for moscow mitch to block any witnesses from being called since Bolton says in the book the Barr, Pompeo, and Mulvaney knew what was going on and went along with it…and idiot boy’s lawyers knew about it and went on the senate floor and lied to the senate and to the American people….and this morning, the coverup continues with the help of 53 repub co-conspirators who are still behind the criminal trump and protecting him. Now, I think this is where the dems have an opening since more than 50% of the people want trump convicted and removed from office…I know that won’t happen but the idea of a “truth commission” that will happen if the dems take the presidency and the WH in the fall could be a huge selling point if it is couched in the idea that no one is above the law including presidents and senators….no more of this bullshit “healing the country” that happened after Obama was elected…the repubs are a cancer that needs to be cut out before it kills America….
No raise for you…
Well…with the blowhard liar trump still screeching about how wonderful the economy is, let’s take a little look at reality when it comes to how people that work for a living are faring…not just the 1% who are still stealing everything that is not nailed down…in data released today workers continue to be screwed by trump and his cronies and the entire repub party…over the past year wage growth has shrunk to zero…yep, even with inflation running 2%, workers in this country got nothing to even just keep up…a net pay cut of 2% while corporations are hoarding billions and billions of dollars that the asinine tax cut was supposed to give to workers…but, we all in the fact based world knew this was going to be the result of just throwing cash at the 1%…only the delusional would ever think that those greedy bastards would ever share one damn dime of the tax cut that they bought from the repubs….I wonder if some of these trump voters who didn’t get a raise are going to blame the dems like they do for everything else? Now, I’m just not going to give them any benefit of the doubt anymore…I hope they all lose everything for being so stupid to vote for a reality show bankrupting loser…they deserve it….
The Ukrainians have opened an investigation…
Well…woke up this morning to the news that the Ukrainians have opened an investigation, but it’s not really the one that the idiot trump wanted. After the House released the information from the Lev Parnas investigation that showed that Rudy’s conspiracy had Ambassador Yovanovitch under surveillance, the Ukrainian Interior Ministry opened a criminal investigation into those involved…hey, I wonder if ole Rudy is going to be going back to Ukraine in the future? Yeah, probably not since he would end up in custody if he did since, if true, he violated both Ukrainian law and the Vienna conventions that protect ambassadors from this type of treatment…and now isn’t it ironic that Ukraine is investigating these threats while the US and Bill Barr’s justice department have swept all of this criminal activity under the rug and are not doing a damn thing about it? This is going to be an interesting story to follow over the next couple of days and there are more shoes to drop in the second part of the Parnas interview with Rachael that will be on tonight…and with the announcement of the investigation by the Ukraine, it appears that they are no longer afraid of trump and his conspirators since this extortion scheme hit daylight…so, don’t let anyone tell you that impeachment wasn’t or isn’t worth it…the people of Ukraine surely wouldn’t….
This is sick…
Well….what a sick piece of shit trump is…and so are all of the repubs who support him….buried in an article in the Murdoch owned Wall Street Journal today we now know why trump ordered the attack on Soleimani now…it was to help keep repubs onboard with acquitting him in the senate trial…in the same article it was reported that right wing hawk senators were were pressing him to attack Iran so of course the idiot trump is going to think about nothing but himself and do what they want…but, how damn sick is that? Murder someone just to keep repub senators from convicting and removing you from office? Over the past twenty years we have seen that repubs have absolutely no ethics or morals, but to press for murder in exchange for protection? This is a new low in this country where now murder is okay if it fits your political needs and there is only one party that would even consider this evil shit…and it sure as hell isn’t the dems….every damn one of them should be hauled to the Hague for war crimes….
Every damn economist knew…except for right wing hacks…
Well…damn, I can’t find the article where I read this earlier today so I’ll just have to wing it…as the title says, every respected mainstream economist predicted that “trade wars are easy to win” was one of the most boneheaded statements in the litany of boneheaded statements by the idiot in chief….the latest government assessment shows that idiot boy’s tariffs have resulted in just what good economists said it would…job losses in manufacturing and higher costs for basically everything for the American consumer…and this is compounded by the generational loss of agricultural markets across the world that have been destroyed by retaliation by the Chinese and their switch to south American markets for soybeans, corn, and other products. And now we have the moron in chief today opening his stupid hole to threaten even more tariffs that will do even more damage to the economy…but do we hear a peep from the repubs? Nope…and this truly shows the only people they give a damn about are the people who can write them million dollar checks for bribes…oh, I mean campaign contributions. I would say that I can’t believe how stupid these folks are on the economy but I have been watching the repubs do this stupid shit for decades now and they are never held to account…why would now be any different?
What a damn baby…
Well…sitting here trying to recover from doing two rides today and just read the most ridiculous article about the most ridiculous person ever to be installed as president…we have a true baby as president, there is no other description…over the past day or so, the idiot trump and his demon spawn have been going on and on about what they are bleating is a conspiracy against the idiot in chief…and you know why that is? The Canadian broadcast company ran an edited version of “Home Alone 2” where idiot boy had a small cameo part but the CBC edited it out…with the perfectly rational explanation that they wanted to make room for more commercials and the cameo really had nothing to do with the plot…so, of course, the right wing snowflakes in this country just know it was a conspiracy against trump since the Canadians hate him and will do anything to erase him from his rightful place as a huuuuuge star….now, how damn ridiculous is that? Especially since the edit was done in 2014 and the edited version has been shown every year since then. but that doesn’t matter to the professional victims on the right…who are just such a huge damn bunch of whiny babies that I wonder how they do anything else…oh, that’s right, they don’t…they just whine and whine and whine…..cripes…
