Beautiful space from NASA.

The Cosmic Rose








The Butterfly Nebula 




Hegseth

It is more or less the hideousness of Trump’s mental health that is being stated. Trump’s cabinet are puppets to his delusions of having a kingdom rather than a democracy. 

Everything Hegseth states is based in hate. Ethnic based hate. Europe is nothing but ethnic. The French, the Germans, the Italians, the British, etc. That is what people are hearing. For crying out loud his wife scared school children.

The USA has treaties and the legislature is responsible for those treaties. NATO is intact. The USA has a responsibility to Europe. There is no pulling out of NATO. 

Ukraine has contracts with other countries and those contracts need to be respected, including the USA military industrial complex. That is who Ukraine is dealing with, CEOs, not Trump. The Congress approves sales of the military industrial complex and the companies make the weapons. Ukraine should have a lobbyist in Washington, DC that keeps things moving along. There are many Congresspersons that understand the circumstances.

The Post Soviet countries do not want to go back and that includes Ukraine. That is respected and the USA legislature is respecting those countries that value freedom.

The Cultural Genocide continues.

The fear is palpable which is becoming a common experience across the breath of USA government as DOGE has seized office after office. The faces are familiar to some people but their actions are a threat and demoralizing.

The Kennedy Center as is has been known to have patrons that may want to take their money elsewhere. The center thrived on ticket sales. My suggestion is to boycott and move on in creating a private charity with the same name on a different place, perhaps Massachusetts. Perhaps more specifically “The President John Fitzgerald Kennedy Center.” Maybe connect it with the library.

Should the current center location close and/or go bankrupt the elegant artifacts can be purchased to return to the new Kennedy Center. Good luck.

Hegseth is an insecure guy without his propagandist at his side.

To say I am not concerned about the sudden shift to surrender by the Trump White House would be a lie. This populous administration is simply not brave or focused on freedom. They are giving too much away and drawing our borders close in stationing the military at them rather than serving in a greater capacity.

I believe Congress in any bill going forward will have to correct course the military through legislation designed to define the mission of the USA military to secure our national security. Trump is and will misuse the military. He is not capable of the command of our military.

Hegseth is not prepared to be Defense Secretary. Congress will have to invite him and in separate meetings the Joint Chiefs, the State Department, and field commanders. 

Hegseth in his former job at Fox News was a far-right conspiracy theory propagandist. That focus continued with an invitation to a radical commentator, Posobiec, in a recent OFFICIAL trip.

Posobiec rants on, as a former navy intelligence officer by the way, as a real control freak. He is dangerous in his level of need for attention and control. Any ally should be running background checks on him and restricting his presence in any meeting of government. Period. I mean it beyond imagination. Full stop. There is no liking this guy. At all. He is poison to democracy and is an example of the type of administration Trump seems to ooze.

This is a dramatic, but clear understanding of this bozo.

Trump is NOT running security checks and there is a real reason why. These characters would never clear a visitor’s pass yet alone a security check.

Donald Trump is NOT the same man he was in  his previous administration. Why? Because he used estranged populations of people to achieve election this time and their leaders want a piece of control. 

Estranged populations include the Tabloid Crowd that Trump and his cabinet minions rely on for support. They cater to these folks to maintain their loyalty for political ambitions. It is why this administration is laced heavily with law breaking, corruption, and racketeering. The populous that believed in Trump this time live in a different world than average citizens. They just do and are sometimes trapped there because of cultural/social isolationism that IS their CHOICE.

Private citizens have no place in foreign circles. An example of Trump infiltration for the purpose of leaking state secrets is exampled by his assignments of his family at every embassy in the world.

BE CAREFUL and DO NOT stop being careful. Trump wants to defeat democracy globally and will never be willing to fight for it. That is all too obvious today.

We are not a banana republic.

Republicans more often than Democrats seem to have the problem of government overreach. The Michigan Republicans has the same problem when they had majorities. It ultimately goes to the courts for a return to democracy. 

Trump has the absolutely wrong idea of the powers of the presidency and this is just another example of. Honestly, he thinks he is king and he unilaterally and quite inappropriately from the executive branch wants to impeach judges. 

HE IS WASTING THE COUNTRY’S TIME AND MONEY. All these lawsuits due to misdirection of power costs money. He needs to stop being so difficult.

It is unfortunate there are orders for a blanket dismissal of employees. We need the best if the best and this should be a case by case evaluation of new hires.

University Presses

Any number of universities including Oxford University would be delighted to print a report about nature. As a matter of fact if it were printed by a university(ies) it could be marketed rather than just sitting at the Government Printing Office. 

The research has already been done. The authors are independent and there is freedom of speech. Oppression in education is not allowed. This is an educational document many want to read and possibly use as a text book or reference book.

Trump’s administration to date is corrupt

Musk started to hack the federal government without authorization. He is a SGE which expires mid-March. SGE’s are not cabinet level authorities because their position is not created by Congress nor confirmed in a process required for such authority. That said, besides Musk having enormous conflict of interest so do staff members of DOGE.

Space X is repeatedly represented in these government raids repeatedly by Musk and now his investors.

Musk is cancelling contracts made with NASA. That is blatant racketeering. Every contract in every case Musk is cancelling is a case for court to reinstate them as there is no legitimate authority granted for that capacity. SGE’s by legal definition are consultants at best. Given Musk’s entourage are corrupt and none of their work is legal or binding. Granted they have created chaos, but, that is also illegal in interfering with the smooth operation of government at all levels due to its trickle down effect with states and municipalities.

Trump didn’t prove his case.

I know what the USA treasury needs to claw back. The 4500 personal trips by the Trump
family from the first term.

He is supposed to release monies to the states. The states proved their case. Trump said he obeys all judges orders. That is not the case here. These are states with States’ Rights as well. Trump needs to obey the judge. 

If Trump doesn’t have enough staff to carry out these responsibilities then that is his problem and is no excuse for ignoring a judge.

Write the checks, Don.

It is completely unconscionable…

…that states are experiencing funding cuts from the federal government as tourist season continues regardless of sunshine or snow.

Hissy fits have no clout.

Just because Musk bought a president doesn’t give him any rights except visit the Oval Office and that may even be restricted by security clearance.













The Republicans need to find their backbones if they don’t want ethics reviews. This is all quid pro quo. Musk gives the Republicans money and they allow him to be dictator. That is racketeering.

Why are they leaving?

This is corruption. If the New York mayor’s actions break the law the Attorney General should be enforcing the law, not averting it. 

This has happened before in the W. Bush administration (click here). I believe the attorneys were returned to work and their cases reinstated. The point is there is no walking away from the Rule of Law. Congress has to act in exposing the wrong doing of the Attorney General. We don’t even have to investigate this case, this is corruption. 

Pam Bondi wants to appear to be a just AG as the mayor is a Democrat. That is politics and not law. Pam Bondi is now in trouble. There are real consequences for her. The Florida bar, if they find her guilty, can pull her license. I realize the stupid governor will try to protect Bondi, but, he has no say in a peer review of Bondi’s incompetence.

A bonding practice by Musk.

Know one’s enemy and hold them close. Musk joked about agriculture at the club meeting at the UAE, even stating government workers in the USA will be leaving for the private sector to pick agricultural commodities. 

There is a reason for that hubris. (click here)

The land in that picture is owned by a Wall Street company that leases USA land to foreign governments. The American people will never benefit by the agricultural practices there. It is so voluminous it is drying up aquifers that American farmers depend on. 

The water of major rivers and aquifers are being dried up by foreign governments unable to feed their people. It a sovereignty issue for the USA as well as foreign governments like the UAE.




Capitalism is weaponized

Why save Earth if spaceships will abandon it?

Bill Gates says the work week can be reduced to 3 days with AI. Musk says 3.5 days. Who in the USA can take care of their families on 3 days of pay?

Who in this country will look for work as a professional requiring years of preparation if all they do is survive rather than thrive? 

They lie to themselves and the propagate the lies to the American public. None of their agenda is realistic.

Changing the world order

H.W. Bush built national security on global financial stability. Good luck with that now.

All the changes to the FUNCTION of the USA will result in enormous changes in the global economy with the USA footprint shrinking. That is a national security risk. Additionally, the propaganda Musk is spewing will turn countries against the USA as a power playing busy body.

The truth? The more agencies’ personnel Trump purges is money in the one percent pockets. Will that prove to be wise for them? No. Musk wants the taxes into the USA treasury for his own while Republicans were lied to in their back rooms and they believe they have control in reaching their political ideology. 

The world is facing danger. It will creep in slowly at first and fall like dominos to multiple different security dangers. This all to play a billionaire hate game.

When Musk was in the UAE he was supposed to discuss AI. Instead he was defaming the USA and sucker punching everyone because he had nothing intelligent to say about AI and certainly no details. No scientific knowledge was passed on. He was there for one reason only and that was to allow wealthy people to hear from an other wealthy person. It was a club meeting.

Senator Warren points to another broken promise. Trump staged a show in his election. He had other plans the entire time.

I read a variety of news media. Mother Jones is believed to be a lefty partisan media, but, it has highly accurate information. I don’t consider it a tabloid and the country is really important to the authors and publishers.

This article is from Mother Jones.  It has a good history of the CFPB. Senator Warren is correct, the banks hated this bureau from the start, but they never thought twice in ruining the American Dream. It looks like it will occur all over again.

I find it very odd the government is imploding like this because these are all legislated agencies and cannot be dissolved with an executive order. Purging the employees is basically dissolving the government to change the culture so it is a hostile act and quite illegal. People make choices and unfortunately they aren’t standing up against Trump and seem to have a herd mentality.

The protocols at the USA Treasury need to be reset.

(Click here)

There is a hearing about the Musk invasion for February 14, 2025. Musk will use that information for his own purposes. He has already proven to be very aggressive and inappropriately so considering he isn’t a government employee or contractor. His DOGE department has the same name as his favorite crypto. That was no error. The court needs to bring important issues like breaking the law, unauthorized entry to the USA Treasury, trespassing in government offices, obtaining primarily classified information to access the payment system, and conspiring with Trump. The American people have to be protected from these racketeers.





I think the ultimatum should be taken seriously.

Trump is out of control and like a steamroller over this democracy. Not to panic people, but, some political influencers during the campaign were calling for the organization of militias. I think the danger that is Trump needs to be taken with great brevity. Preparation to act is in order. 




The ICC has jurisdiction over Gaza.

Someone once said Trump studied Hitler.

The Jake Tapper interview of Steven
Miller validates the abuse of the press, too.

The similarities are too stark to be ignored.

It is time the American people have a Congress that takes care of them first, not loyal to broken promises and an assault against the federal institutions we built. It is time to check votes and organize recall elections. I do not care how long they have been in office, if they don’t have a backbone kick ‘em out.

Naive me, I thought it was about taking your kids to work. Didn’t know it was a propaganda gig.




UAE

(Click here)

Musk is openly defaming the USA stating we interfere with the affairs of other countries. He is bragging about raiding the USA government of its personnel and sending them to work in the private sector. The USA is pushy.
