I want to be clear.

I make no money with my advocacy work on this bog. 

I have no income from any of the outcomes from that advocacy work.

I love my country.

I also fear for the people of my country. 

Everyone should have a good day. I am preparing to go into my community to do some volunteer work. 

Thank you.

This was the right thing to do. This does more than protect all our visitors’ safety, including international visitors; it protects our brain trust for the future of the USA. I can’t impart enough how important the work of these young people and burgeoning professional and their mentors are to the well being of this country. They are magnificent people and very brave heroes to many. 

Again, thank you. 



Trump betrays USA promises.

We are no longer a reliable partner. The intelligence agencies are probably experiencing a great deal of problems with Trump’s stupidity ranking high as a deterrent to cooperation.

Trump is corrupting the USA Rule of Law.

Interesting all this should be transpiring while Trump wants his Sovereign Wealth Fund to purchase Canada where Indian ethnic tensions have escalated resulting in the assassination Hardeep Singh Nijjar (click here).

This has always been the rhetoric surrounding cyber space. So much more to discover and enrich the economy. We now know it is Trump’s “Patriot Economy” to be enriched, not in the world all but the one percent live. That is what the plutocrats hate the most about democracy, it requires consensus and not autocracy. That is not new either. It is called greed.





The corruption continues…

…with the techies greed.

Patel and the rest of Trump’s gang think as long as they file the proper reports they are as good as gold to proceed into displacing the USA economy into crypto. They don’t stop to link the fact they are racketeering with the reporting because Bondi won’t allow their prosecutions. Every state has an attorney general.

Trump and Netanyahu justify their ethnic cleansing in the name of sovereignty, Bernie.

Netanyahu has his own definition of Israel as do many others in the war cabinet. It is one thing to clear the region of Hamas and its allies, quite another to ethnic cleanse a race of people.

Sovereignty is important. But, Israel is secure in its sovereignty. The USA is a part of that. I understand the fear of death and unless one is facing it there is a distant understanding of the war in Gaza.

I know Prime Minister Netanyahu wants every Israeli citizen safe. I know there is a rage within every member of the war cabinet spawned by hatred of Israel over the decades. I know there is a strong resentment in some, but not all, that Israel is being denied as the rightful sovereign of the holy sites. There is no doubt Israel loves and protects as much of these important lands as it can. That goes unchallenged. 

But, there comes a point in time when Israel needs to resolve the idea that every Palestinian hates Israel in the name of Hamas as their protector. It is not possible to remove every Palestinian from Earth in the name of ridding the world of Hamas.

After WWII Germany had to be rehabilitated to remove the “mind of Hitler/the Third Reich” from the people. Today Germany is a jewel of compassion and global leadership. It is wrong to not believe the same is possible of the Palestinian people.

Today, a delicate ceasefire is becoming unstable because of hatred and wildly stated politics. It would be adverse to Israel’s best outcome if it continues carnage and mistrust. There needs to be an end to every war. I believe this is the best Israel can achieve without being considered a global pariah. It is time to end this and stop the absurd talk of plutocrats.

USAID must go forward.

Instead, Trump and Musk wants to put the money back in their pockets.

Constant Comments

Trump has no right to call for the end of the Gaza ceasefire especially in the aftermath of the Trump Palestinian Protocol calling for ethnic cleansing.

Taylor Swift should sue for defamation. Yes, personal lawsuits are allowed of USA presidents.

She did nothing wrong except support a boyfriend. Nothing wrong at all. Yet she suffered embarrassment because Trump is a bad loser.  She deserves an apology.

Career Criminal

Trump is in contempt of court along with his budget office staff under Russ Voight. Bought is too busy shutting down the Consumer Protection Bureau (click here) to even notice. I can’t help but believe this opens up Trump’s 34 count criminal convictions.

Once a criminal, always a criminal. They are in open violation of their oath of office, too.

Voight seems like a really weird guy. He says things like, “I want federal employees to be terrified (at the shuttering of the government).” And, I will be carrying my duties while being in touch with
Trump’s thought. Those are strange things to say. Voight is supposed to be administrating the budget according to the law, not Trump’s whims. Trump sends a budget to Congress and then Congress acts on it. Strange guy.

USA House Representative Al Green filed articles of impeachment against President Trump initiated due to the Trump Palestinian Protocol that clearly violates international law for ethnic cleansing. I think it is important Rep. Green filed the impeachment articles. It proves to the world the USA is alive and breathing fire. The criminality of the White House is very unfortunate. Trump continues to rack up criminal violations. The Republicans cannot look away as if it didn’t happen. That level of negligence is culpable activity by anyone involved in a cover-up in pretending none of it is important.

Law breaking is what is proposed by the Commander and Chief of the USA military. It matters.



This is complete stupidity.

It also affects our brain trust. This is the time of year when young people are looking for summer jobs that will start in May. This is the time of year when college students are applying for internships to begin to build competencies of their chosen profession. That summer work is vital and when it comes to college internships the federal government is a huge contributor.

When the federal government hires college interns they are getting some of the best minds in the country at dirt cheap prices. Every summer hiring season will see work getting done at all levels of competency because building an understanding of a lifetime position means doing what may not be defined as professional, no matter however practical.

This hiring freeze will impact our young people disproportionately and Congress needs to legislate to end it. Participation in placing an application on a job that was there yesterday, but gone today might be litigable. The trouble with asserting rights of young adults may mean they don’t have an allotment in their college budget for such necessary actions.

Congress is dropping the ball on this and Americans will be hurt by it. Being short staffed will effect tourism and safety within the park.

Advance notice needed…

…to Congress for approval of mass terminations of any federal employee, including Lady Liberty.

That is the problem here. Everything is a surprise which results in extreme uncontrollable uncertainty by everyone in the USA and internationally.

Federal employees are accepting the exit deal because Trump breeds uncertainty in their next paycheck. 

So much of what is transpiring is hate based as well. Our enemies have enough hate of the USA and it’s citizens traveling aboard that the American people really don’t need nor want a president that hates this country, conducts himself as Vladimir Putin would, and compromises every aspect of Americans’ privacy that hackers haven’t yet invaded.

There is reporting this morning that Musk is ONLY allowed a “read only” status at the USA treasury.

I DON’T THINK SO. Musk’s unilateral invasion into a little known USA Treasury Office IS ILLEGAL!

Period!

End of discussion!

Musk should have had a Capitol Hill Police escort out of the building or worse the day he arrived!

Ellis Island and France’s beautiful gift of the Statue of Liberty speaks so very loudly of how this country paved its way to success and international acclaim. It is completely unforgivable there is an assault on the Undocumented which is used as a political toy to breed hate by order of King Trump.

Illegal immigration needs to be addressed by Congressional legislation which Former President Biden did so admirably. But, no, King Trump had plans for his campaign to build hate and drive unwitting Americans to the polls. It is so very, very obvious what transpired during the Biden administration that is nothing short of unethical, inhumane, and a complete offense to the oath Congresspersons took. Obvious beyond doubt the American federal government was Republicans tool to elections so the immigration reform bill was trashed unilaterally by Republicans. They should be ashamed to their abdication of our democracy.

There will be no more hate in this country going forward and the BEST outcomes to our citizens and allies is most important.

At the hand of Trump the country withers into disrepair with compromised national security while our government reeks of corruption.

Musk should be banned from any capacity in government for participating in that corruption and breeding criminality in the youngest of his followers.



Say good-bye to the USA brain trust

There is a reason Musk wants his special work visas, but, aren’t most foreign workers educated in USA universities?

The do nothing Congress needs to get a clue or the American people need to remove the political right wing with recall elections now. Trump’s egotistical (click here) mess is about more than charter schools.

Can Musk hack the Defense Department?

Or is it a foregone conclusion with Hegseth there that anyone can hack the Defense Department?

Quid pro quo, there is no clear evidence this should have taken place, except, an election Musk purchased as Trump’s largest donor.

“The Paper Trail”

(Click here)






















What a magnificent idea this is. It would be nice if there was just one column by a former inmate that could contribute how it is to rebuild a life once their time has been served. 

But, as it exists now is a great idea with the potential to have incredible impacts. Congratulations to all the ladies. 

Ignoring the reality of the Venezuelans

Noem is conducting autonomously a hostile change in international status of a threatened people. There is no recognition internationally of Maduro as the president of Venezuela. As a matter of fact Noem appears to be the only official in the Trump administration with an understanding there is no threat to the immigrants in the USA. Maybe she is in competition with Pam Bondi for Trump’s attention.

(Click here)






















It all seems disjointed policy to me. On one hand Trump sends an envoy to Venezuela to meet publicly televised with Maduro, Noem announces the Special status of Venezuelans is over, and Rubio is seizing assets belonging to Maduro. It would appear the Envoy and the State Department are unrelated. Rubio has a special relationship with the region and his status exceeds that of any envoy, so the actions by Noem are highly questionable.

The Venezuelan people in the USA are here with the understanding they are highly protected under the threat of death. That is a fact that is not in question. When someone enters the USA under threat of their life there is no question as to the protection afforded them. That is current and long standing immigration law. There is no question to their status. It is known internationally this is the concern due to a stubborn communist regime in Venezuela. If the protected Venezuelans are returned they can easily be considered prisoners. Trump has no guarantee to their treatment once they are on Venezuelan soil.

Between the ethnic cleansing protocol Trump announced for the Palestinians and the declaration of unprotected status of the Venezuelans this administration is looking at some serious infractions of international law and sincerely serious cases at The Hague.

Trump’s Ethnic Cleansing Plans

The European Union clearly defines Ethnic Cleansing and, yes, Trump’s plans for the Palestinians clearly fit that definition.

The Kennedy Center is under attack.

(Click here for Kennedy Center Statement)

Trump wants to remove all the trustees and make himself chairman. That is not the place of the federal government, is not in the job description, and out of the question. 

Guaranteed the first thing he wants to do is cancel all the performances and shut the doors until he and Vance can line up Caucasians he approves of. Would Mozart be welcome?

This is a huge statement about the intentions of Project 2025 to remove the culture of this country from its inception.

The Kennedy Center is the gem that celebrates the melting pot of the USA. It has a mission and to destroy that mission and its mission statement is to destroy the very fabric of the culture of this country.

(Click here)





















You have to remember, Trump’s delusion doesn’t have him living temporarily in the White House (the official office of the president), but, in his permanent palace. So, he believes control of every aspect of life in the USA is his to control including it’s culture.

He is delusional. That became obvious a long time ago with the testimony of Michael Cohen. He lives in a different world than we do.

Trump believes his lies. All those in his servitude are allowed their power and are required to practice that power as he dictates. We saw that a long time ago with the severely changed posture of then Vice President Pence. I swear he threatens his staff with a real threat to vaporize the people of this country. I keep asking myself, what else could it be?  Rational people don’t act this way.

At any rate, the assault on those in authority of The Kennedy Center is a direct assault on diversity and inclusion. Art is among the first places of acceptance of an ever enriching culture. It is vitally important to the people of the USA to have self-expression. Among the first places that happens is in the arts, which includes reading and opinion. 

This action by Trump is a very hostile act aimed directly at the expression of freedom, especially free will. Artful expression is part of the human mind dating back to Paleolithic times.
