Congress has to contain Trump

The defunding must continue until the Republicans come out from their Stockholm

syndrome and go back to work for the American people rather than endorsing a President Racketeer.

A West Virginia judge ruled ICE use of masks is unconstitutional.

I did not watch that mess they call Trump’s State of the Union. I went to dinner with friends and then to a movie; “Wuthering Heights” to be exact. What a magnificent picture that was. 

But, Al Green is correct. Trump is an abomination. Rep. Green didn’t get it exactly correct though; Trump’s rant was about President and First Lady Obama. I agree Trump is without a doubt a racist because he defamed a magnificent President and First Lady. They are celebrated regularly in the USA, but, also globally. The Obama Presidency accomplished so much for so many.

Congressman Seth Moulton brought a victim of Trump’s rampaging administration to the speech yesterday. If that wasn’t a clear indication of how very wrong headed Trump is, then I don’t know what it takes to get through to those that hate difference. 

My understanding is that the teen was threatened while he was seated with the Congressman. That only indicates how savage Trump’s constituents and supporters have become. There is no civil discourse possible anymore.

DEFUND and REFORM DHS.

The country cannot take these chances on an Executive Branch that uses the raw power of the presidency to kill, maim, and terrorize citizens. The entire presidency as endorsed by extremists is based in domestic violence. That in the face of his ego driven Board of Peace which is basically a slush fund for global corruption.

Trump is a horror and needs to be contained on all fronts and removed from office.

There were more arrests at the border under Biden.

Just sayin’.

Savannah Guthrie should not blame herself.

American seniors are targets of such fraud. The question is who are these people? I do not believe this is random. Seniors were the primary targets in the scam schemes. In some ways this is nothing new and just an escalation in the terror. 

I sincerely feel a great deal of sympathy for the Guthrie family, but, maybe we should have seen it coming.

So what else is news?

Why do we even need the written report? Cannon is bought and paid for. She ihas to be one of the most corrupt judges in Florida. Pam Bondi is from Florida. That says something. 

The testimony of Jack Smith is more valuable than a written report that would see most pages redacted. When the report is finally read at least we know what the truth is to discern a false report or one tampered with at Maralago.

Oh. One of the 14 percent that should have been deported.

That does not make deporting 86 percent of innocent people right. The 86 percent of innocent immigrates victimized by ICE is called racism.

“…the billionaire class who traveled in Epstein circles…”

That really is interesting insight. But, Jon Stewart gets it, yes? 

I guess the files continue to deliver some really outrageous facts. The idea a man with 14 children wants sexual satiation with girls is quite a revelation. No loyalty to family, but, billionaire Musk on a plane to Epstein’s pleasure island. Talk about misplaced values. 

I think Epstein owned a ranch in New Mexico. The State is moving to investigate the business practiced there. The State of New Mexico wants to make it as right as it can for the victims in providing as many facts as possible. I think that is called responsible government.

But, there was definitely an Epstein Circle, wasn’t there? Free wheeling men who believed the rules don’t apply to them. It appears Donald John Trump still lives out the ideology of the Epstein Circle. The rules don’t apply to him.

The girls, now women, experienced crime. They experienced crime by very wealthy men that had no rules. Currently, the UK is engaged in being people before the courts to hold them accountable for breaking the rules. How many rules, a lot because racketeering has no rules and railroads over top of the rules that do exist that actually do apply to everyone.

When in the USA will these primary men be held responsible? New Mexico gets it. When will everyone else?

No insult intended, but, when do the Epstein files produce more than jokes in the USA?

Mike Lee is scared.

He wants to further modify the filibuster again. That might not be a bad idea. The Dems will need a 51 vote margin to reorganize DHS.

Basically, Mike Lee is one of Trump’s minions. In seeking to change the filibuster he endorses Trump’s racketeering. He is gambling on the new voter oppression law the House passed. I think the law proposed by the House is unconstitutional. But, this is the desperation of Trump’s minions.

In supporting Trump’s schemes the Republicans do not care about the abuse of power and the deaths it is causing. A legislator cannot vote to oppress the vote without endorsing the agenda of cruelty that is being leveled by Trump. The two go hand in hand. Support voter oppression then that equates to supporting the racketeering of Trump.

They are racists. They see this as their big chance.

At Trump’s rambling speech at the Board of Peace he stated and this is a quote, “I like cash, a lot of cash.” That is racketeering. Right there in the open after he stated he does not like pretty men, but, he likes pretty women. All in the same paragraph. Trump is bigoted, racist, and a criminal. And what is the majority Republican Congress doing, oppressing the vote.

When is this harassment going to stop?

This is a malicious DOJ carrying out racketeering at Trump’s gamesmanship. Every member of Congress not speaking out against this maliciousness does not deserve their seat.

The U.S. Department of Justice is being usd for nefarious purposes. Don Lemon did nothing wrong and was harassed to the point where he had to leave his job. It is malicious and everyone knows it. Congress must act to stop the criminality of the Trump administration.

These malicious activities of the Trump administration is expensive and the American people can’t afford his idea of fun ancd games. Everyone of these people will sue for damages because Trump wanted video for Truth Social.

Striking fear into the hearts of a nation, I suppose.

Donald John Trump has an alias. Trump’s alias is John Barron.

This has been his MO whenever he tried to change public opinion. The guy is our president and a real bozo. Can you imagine playing games with the people of this country to covertly act against them?

The Republican majority Congress has a real problem. They have a real racketeer in the White House who believes he should be king.

Hello?

Congress is going to restructure DHS, end the charade, and protect the people of this country from Trump’s world view. No more funding until the people are safe. No more military goon squads in our streets.

This is not funny. Trump won a second term because Elon Musk bought into the racketeering and spent more money on Trump’s election than any one donor in the history of this country. The Republican majority Congress has looked the other way for the past year and this is where we are with dead civilians, traumatized public, and acts of inhumanity in removing healthcare and expertise from the lives of Americans.

The Fifth Amendment does not extend to evidence.

Ghislaine was a willing participant in the exploitation of girls. She is a convicted criminal who saw an opportunity when Trump was elected for a second term. I have to wonder why? Why would a convicted human trafficker find solace in President Trump? What do they have in common to hide? 

Considering the number of girls involved and the high profile clients I would expect a president of the USA be demanding the complete unredacted release of every document of the Epstein files. 

Also, we now know Epstein was a high roller within the one collapsed Wall Street firm leading the financial collapse of 2007-2008. There is obviously a far wider investigation needed in all this. 

So.

Trump wants close this down and agrees with Maxwell. That is very curious. Trump received federal monies after the financial collapse to assist with losses and to rebuild. 

There are a whole lot of questions.

The trials that never were held

No one can accuse the Biden White House  and DOJ of anything except following the facts. The materials at Maralago were voluminous. The evidence to the reckless transport out of the White House to prevent them from being archived is overwhelming.

Donald John Trump in his first session in office was fast and loose with classified documents when it came to Putin and Xi

(click here). The concern was real, especially after the Trump insurrection of January 6, 2021. 

There is nothing wrong with referrals to DOJ from the President. 

President Biden was not seeking false charges against Trump and had already made it clear he would not run again. July 21, 2024 (click here).

If the Office of the President was communicating with DOJ about Maralogo, it was all factual. When charges were filed by Jack Smith it was not revenge politics as Patel currently would like to distract from the current facts about Trump and Epstein and minor girls.

What is the claim? Biden knew about the raid at Maralago? So? Trump had proven to be untrustworthy. I am not surprised the FBI, DOJ, and the Office of the President were communicating with each other. It would be worrisome if they did not. If Biden concealed the fact it is because a degree of secrecy needed to be maintained to protect evidence and Due Process. The last thing Smith needed was some zealous political operative attempting to destroy evidence.

Finally, progress.

There are many ways to proceed from here. The best way is for Democrats to formulate a priority of funding for DHS in priority to national security and the well being of people. No one wants illegal immigrants, but, they are not so much the problem as roving DHS agents with military weapons.

So, as an advocate, I think the best way forward is for Democrats to talk directly to the people stating they want to prioritize refunding the department based on the safety of citizens. That means funding essential services such as the Coast Guard. 

Congress can designer legislate the refunding of DHS. Designer legislation can also limit the reassignment of agents. The Department can be required to allow agents to work after completing necessary training in Quantico. 

All the new agents are not necessary. ICE is heavy in personnel and they can be dismissed. A command authority of long serving agents that may have to be recalled back to employment can revitalize DHS with reviews of all the departments to be refunded and restructure requirements for agents, their training, their deployment, and disciplinary procedures for rouge agents. 

DHS is not the law, only enforcement. People are to be guaranteed Due Process and complete safety through that process.

I do not see just a few modifications especially realizing the disarray the department is in and it‘s willingness to disrupt American lives. There is no respect for human life in the way the department is being run.  ICE is about arresting the undocumented WITHOUT destroying the country from the inside out. Considering how much disarray exists in deportations it is going to be a long time to sort through who is to return to the USA. That is going to require more judges and courts to move these processes along.

I don’t see the department returning to the size it is now. It is far too large and requires too much funding. A lot has transpired in transportation since September 11, 2001 and all the reasons DHS was consolidated must be reviewed.

The special programs in the news article below clearly demonstrates how far we have come in perfecting security for travelers. These programs should be regarded as successes in the return of trust and security. Basically, to what extent is DHS as a single department still necessary? Such consolidation of power is proving to be a hazard rather than an enhancement.

Congress was wrong to put so much money into a wayward political objective. Congress doesn’t have to apologize, they need to get it right. DHS is NOT to return to its inhumane capacity ever again. It was consolidated to protect Americans, not place them in the line of fire. If Republicans can’t see the errors in trusting this administration then refuse to fund it at all.

Responsibly reduce the power within DHS, return function and not brutality, and cut funding to reasonable levels. All this will require new legislation of the department and possibly removing it from the status of cabinet level with new functional departments at the table instead. They can all still talk to each other within new organization, but, no one Secretary should have such consolidated power, personnel or budget.

ICE may have to be disbanded into State authority only. It can be funded federally and become a division of the State Bureau of Investigation. Customs can move to a responsibility of the Border Patrol with proper personnel and funding.

Citizenship is necessary to vote.

 That is existing law. 

The SAVE Act passed by the House.

Or whatever it is called, is a poll tax and prohibited by the 24th Amendment.

A birth certificate if required to register by law has to be provided free to every American. A birth certificate already states where and when the birth occurred. Nothing else is necessary.

If a married couple is affiliated with a name change and proof is required by the state, then the state must issue a free marriage certificate when the marriage is completed. 

If such measures are passed into law, there will have to be an initiation period of two years while documents are printed and distributed. 

If passports are required, the same paradigm is true. The problem is a passport is a federally issued document and can be held as an invalid measure of citizenship by the states. Birth certificates are state issued.

Tariff yo-yo

When reading through the Supreme Court decision it became obvious there was no investigation leading up to tariff executive orders. It was evident because the tariffs would go up one day, down the next, up two days later and in the case of China it culminated in something like 135 percent. 

Trump is doing the same thing again. Ten percent didn’t make him happy so within hours of the original tariff declaration he raised it to 15 percent. It is crazy stuff. 

It is obvious there is no investigation leading. If there is no investigation, then what the hell is he basing this mess on? 

The Supreme Court made the right decision.

Alito, Kavanaugh, and Thomas are the corrupt justices.

We now know it exists and why Chief Justice Roberts wrote the majority opinion himself.

I think Justice Gorsuch is worried enough about the country that he spoke out about the danger that exists. I appreciate his honesty.

We all have an interest in the steadfastness of this democracy and the national security it guarantees. Freedom is important in all aspects.

The three dissenting justices will never be viewed the same. They have tainted their reputations forever. I am not surprised about Alito. He is a partisan through and through. The other two are a surprise to some extent. But, there is always Ginny and pillow talk. Kavanaugh carved out an identity that secured his nomination and to that end he holds allegiance rather than the oath to the USA Constitution.

We have a new balance of understanding. I always take the three what is called Liberal justices seriously. I appreciate their opinions always.

The justices are given life long terms for a reason. Evidently, that should be reviewed. Some can’t make the important calls in siding with our founding documents. That is a concern.

Small business and auto industry hurt.

When Trump played his isolation game to “Made in America,” the car industry was immediately affected. Other countries decided the electric cars of China were a great alternative to tariffed American imports. Now, the old agreements with allies and trading partners are no more. The damage is done.

This is the USA now. We cater to the individual. Specialty everything. These products are dense in quality and unique supply chains. These entrepreneurs are of the opinion, the damage is done.
