Patel? Very political. He kissed the ring.

Patel was the ghost writer for the Nunes Memo. He tried to discredit a 22 year career veteran of M16. 

Patel is Anti-Mueller. Bob Mueller? Cutting edge anti-terrorism FBI Director. Patel cut his teeth under Mueller’s leadership. Then he became political for whatever reason he did.

It is royalty, you understand?

(Click here)

That is the delusion Trump operates under. If one looks to British royals they serve as international liaisons for the sovereign. Trump takes example from that lineage to pretend to be the equivalent to the Royals. 

Trump is very delusional with many things. Believing he is more than a president, but, the dictatorial equivalent to a sovereign. 

The Brits (click here) had it figured out. Trump’s first trip to the UK was a complete disaster. He disrespected protocol and made a laughing stock of the USA. So, Charles and Camilla went to great lengths the next time to hem Trump in by treating him, not as a president, but, as a king. And it worked. Trump and Melanie behaved themselves. 

If the people of the USA are expecting a “normal” presidency from Trump they are in for a surprise. He has many personality disorders and the nepotism is all part of it.

It is just a shame Trump has to be interrupted to rubber stamp outrageous demands of his donors through his cabinet staff. He much rather eat his hamburger and watch FOX News than have to keep everyone happy with him. Everyone is supposed to be making him happy.

It is all a bunch more of tough talkin’ bullshit.

This treaty was negotiated during his other term. If he wanted to make enemies of our neighbors he should have thought about it then.

The USA can be sued if it violates a brand, spanking new treaty!

Lies, corruption, and monopolies

(Click here) If the loan to Rivian was a political strategy it would have delivered Georgia to the Democrats. President Biden and the DOJ have been targeting monopolies and Rivian is a healthy addition to the EV market. Rivian is as much a competitor to the major automakers as well. The only sea is to get the American people up and running on affordable EVs. Rivian is a welcome part of that. 

That said, it appears as though the czars of government spending aren’t interested in trimming pork or consolidating agencies that might have too much middle management. They are interested in putting their thumbs on the scale to serve their own interests. That is obvious corruption, and very illegal. I do believe it is racketeering. That is where the Trump presidency is headed. Self serving use of the budget belonging to the people, not Trump.

(Click here)

It would be vital for Trump to control the FBI by loyalty in order to carry out the level of corruption he intends, including those by corrupt Congressmen like Zinke. 

Whatever happened to childhood?

(Click here)

Elon Musk is such a jerk.

It is hard to believe such a talented and gifted man can be a jerk, but, Musk is. 

He would let Grimes not see one of her children while being divorced. He not only hurt her, but, three children. Grimes has three lovely babies, two with surrogates. Those children were hurt by him during some of their most formative years, 0-5.

Grimes was so cute about the children, she said, “Babies are like ten thousand philosophy classes… (Click here)” And they are. A parent can prepare all they want, but, it isn’t until the baby is born does the responsibility make itself real along with the personality of each child.

But, Grimes was so correct in her awakening to parenthood there are entire philosophies valued today recognizing the changes an adult goes through when deciding to be a parent (Click here). 

If that wasn’t enough Musk is trying to turn the tables on a national hero to benefit Putin. Alexander Vindman (Click here). Alexander Vindman came forward as a whistleblower to protect national security as well as the security of allies. Now, Musk is having a temper tantrum to silence Vindman. 

Alexander Vindman, whose brother is a recently elected member of the U.S. House, believes Musk has already passed on classified documents to iRIussia. I would not be the least bit surprised as he flys machines to and from the ISS.

DC

President Biden should have a special list of whistleblowers to pardon from the Trump years. Vindman wasn’t alone, I think there one or two from the FDA regarding drug price gouging, and there are most certainly others.

While on the subject of flying machines, Musk has never flown in his own or anyone else’s either. I don’t know what he is afraid of, drinking recycled urine, organ damage fromHk solar radiation that requires dialysis, or a loss in cognitive ability in space. 

It is easy for the pot to call the kettle black when an American oligarch is guilty as sin of being a USA national security threat. 

Donald John Trump cares about nothing but personal greed.

(Click here)

Please get this right if you don’t get anything else right. Trump does not love this country and worry about national security. He will put our worst enemy in power if he can get what he wants.

THE USA IS A VEHICLE FOR TRUMP AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING MORE.

What does Trump expect?

(Click here)

Trump is a nasty talking man making all kinds of threats himself. He is not making friends, that’s for sure. 

These are mostly nuisance issues. Death threats should always be checked out and people apprehended that carried out the threat.

Trump and his minions need to behave and stop making threats themselves. They need to prepare for the nomination hearings. The campaign is over. Time to govern.

There are people fleeing this country in fear of their lives and happiness after Trump won the election.

Ellen DeGeneres (click here) and wife Portia de Rossi have reportedly left the US and settled down in Cotswolds in the UK.

Trump has an adverse effect on people. This is Cher Bono's statement about her past experience with Trump in office.

The iconic singer (click here) Cher had previously wanted to leave US if Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump gets reelected in the year 2024 while citing the toll his previous presidency took on her health. According to Blast, Cher asserted in an interview that, ‘I almost got an ulcer the last time’ while indicating her serious intent to flee if Donald Trump returns to power....

On her Facebook account Cher appearing in a picture with her son Chaz stated they were considering moving out of the USA. Chaz is getting married and purchased a home. That may stem Cher's point of view.

Cher's son Chaz Bono (click here) is moving to a new house in Hollywood with his fiancée as moving trucks arrived to pack up their home.

Chaz, 55, and his longtime partner Shara Blue Mathes were spotted directing movers at their soon-to-be-former home in West Hollywood on September 7.

The pair are moving to a $2.5 million house just a few miles away as they prepare to live as a married couple after their upcoming wedding....

There are many famous people considering leaving the USA because of Trump and his bad attitude. These are not mentally unstable people. They are loved stars that has brought the people of the USA a lot of entertainment and good times.

There is no excuse for anyone in this country feeling so very threatened with the loss of freedom and potential abuse by authority. But, because Trump has ideology that is Anti-American people are leaving. 

There are average people leaving as well. 

Trump is a terrifying figure and there is no doubt about it. So, if his nominees to office are experiencing unpleasantness on their way to power, they should not be surprised at all. Donald John Trump is mostly hated. The MAGA people may laugh at that reality, but, there is nothing to say Trump won't turn against them, too.

After Donald Trump's victory (click here) over Kamala Harris in the US elections, several high-profile Hollywood celebrities have expressed their intentions to leave the US.

File lawsuits against Elon Musk, the national security risk, personally.

(Click here)

He has absolutely no right to do this.

It is outrageous and dangerous.

This is a Trump strategy to instill fear and silent loyalty to Trump. Who’s next? 

Elon is far too wealthy and doesn’t care about being sued. So these folks and anyone after this should file defamation lawsuits, as well as harassment, and reckless endangerment of government officials.

He can stand in front of a million flags and all the gold in Fort Knox and I would say nothing differently.

There is no decency and civility with Musk or any Trump World person. 

If any physical harm comes to these four people Musk should be locked up. It is the only thing he values. If he were to lose his freedom for the criminal he is quickly becoming the lives of others might finally have meaning. 

These men have a fetish for violence. It is how they get off. This is Musk’s latest attempt to send people into frenzy like a herd of sheep over a cliff.

Russia is moving on NATO.

Putin wants this so bad he can taste it. North Korea is increasingly its manufacturing of missiles to supplement Russia. The time to end this war is now. 

Trump has no mandate.

With all votes still being processed he leads by 1.6 points. His lead is down. Vice President Harris was in reach the entire time. 

Oops. Did I mention Trump is corrupt?

On this blog I stated something was not right in the way Stinky Zinke and Trump were coveting the National Park Service for building Trump Resort and Casinos? Guess what? I was right.

Trump will cut down all the forests owned by the USA government and kill all the wildlife in order to build hotels and casinos. 

LOCK ‘EM UP !!!!!

Just in time for the holy days. Please let the hostages come home, too. 

Really cool set of turkeys.

(Click here)

With the holidays breaking wide open at the White House, President Biden pardoned two turkeys named Peach and Blossom. The flower Peach Blossom is the official flower of the State of Delaware. I think that is really special. 

What about the Middle East?

Trump is cozy with Saudi Arabia. It and the UAE, Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq should all be brought to the conference table. Then invite Israel, Iran, Yemen, the Palestinians, and all the countries of the Shia Crescent for a real peace Summit. 

Iraq is at peace with Israel. It is also a Shi’ite homeland. If there was sincere interest in peace in the Middle East, it could happen.

That would be something to admire. Peace talks leading to peace treaties are supposed to make the world a safer place, not a world resolved to oppression. 

No surrender.

Trump is starting his rant about Ukraine. He says he wants peace but he is willing to surrender everything to Russia. Surrender is not a peace treaty. He also has many other parties to bring to the peace table, namely NATO. They are very invested in Ukraine’s best outcome. 

Basically, Trump is a Russian asset. So is Tulsi Gabbard. That is not a wild out of the blue statement. Russia itself states Trump and Gabbard are Russian assets. I have no idea why she is still commanding a unit in the National Guard. Military intelligence needs to release any and all information on Gabbord’s communications with Russia before her confirmation. Trump’s communications needs to be known to the American people as well.

A smooth transition is what Trump promised. Surrendering to enemies is not a smooth transition. 

President Biden needs to be sure all records regarding Trump and his cabinet are provided to Congress and as much as is allowed to the American people. 

Another historical disagreement.

(Click here)

Another reason for Trump to try to work a wedge issue to drive allies further apart. The more hostility, the better. Danger time to pick fights with each other.

Now is the time to set differences aside and strengthen alliances. After all, North Korea sent troops to Russia because Russia is running out of people, except of course at the Kremlin.

Elon Musk, the national security threat is feeling powerful.

He, along with most billionaires competing to be trillionaires, have attached themselves to Trump. Trump is an easy president to buy. But, Elon has his own town in Texas. He just opened a school for children. 

I don’t know what the name of the town is, I heard rumors it was being called Monkeytown by the employees that work there. See, that is the reason Musk moved to Texas, there is no morality, only profiteering.

There are standards to prevent cruelty to animals, especially when used in research. Texas doesn’t recognize any of it though. Business is business. I do believe the zoos in Texas meet standards of their peers.

The Biden Administration and a bipartisan Congress…

…could have solved the immigration problems but Trump got scared and feared for his strongest reason for re-election, “fear of the other.”

Trump has no solutions except to satisfy his need to kill and appear powerful. Trump rather kill his problems than pay taxes that solve the problems of the country while upholding the dignity of life. 

Government is not a business.

It is not a cathedral. 

It was never designed to be either. 

It is a place where the common good of the people lie. It is benevolent and not aggressive against the people. Government relies on law and not the power of violence that it owns by its very nature.

When Eric Holder went to Ferguson, Missouri he didn’t send in the National Guard or the military to govern. He didn’t declare a police state. He didn’t disrupt government or governing, he assessed the response of government to the people and determined it to be too harsh and outside the law of any real purpose. Attorney General Holder held those that governed responsible for their misdeeds in carrying out their responsibility.

The violence that existed across the country was in response of the cultural hubris that exonerated Kyle Rittenhouse. Those unarmed men he killed never received a fair trial. 

The Kenosha police stood down to the anger that was filling the air. Rittenhouse and the cultural forces that turned him loose, including media, never followed the same good strategy of police who put life before property. 

It was a time when African Americans felt very threatened. There is a long history of disruption by African Americans when they feel the hate of racism as was the case with Rodney King. It has always been the response of government to stand down and not cause escalations of any confrontation. There was always a clear understanding that life is more important than property. When angry people are afraid for their lives it can erupt in the only vehicle they have and that is fire. It is common globally. France and it’s fire brigades are a clear example.

Michael Brown and Kyle Rittenhouse were both 18 years old. Yet their outcomes were very different. Michael Brown was never afforded an hearing or a trial. The officer’s gun was his jury. 

Unarmed people, like the men in Kenosha, Wisconsin didn’t have a chance against Rittenhouse with his illegally possessed weapon. Yet those men were gunned down as if common criminals destroying someone’s precious property rather than men who LEGITIMATELY feared for their own lives and wanted the world to know. Three dead men and a self-righteous bigot and the bastard walked. Why? 

We, as a country are entering a very dangerous time. The USA is a tinderbox due to violent MAGA rhetoric and a president that seeks retribution not only for himself but the people that backed his particular form “of hatred of the other.” Trump has openly said he intends to declare a national emergency and he is already backed by an extremist House Speaker that has no valid proof of 3 million dangerous undocumented.  

The hate “of the other” is all too familiar a partner to those that want to justify violence. We have a problem and it has been stoked for the past four years. The anxiousness of Trump’s intentions are palpable. Americans should act now to write the elected representatives to end the freely exhibited racism and cultural hubris before it gets started.

National emergency?

Where? 

Texas? 

Take it to the governor and tell him to do his job rather than whining about it.

I can’t look the other way.

I am not good at political dodging, nor do it want to be.

Look, Trump is continuing his racist ways. It is very, very obvious. He has a majority Caucasian staff. In his cabinet the only African American is the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. That is a traditionally Republican cabinet seat for one African American. 

When one compares the Biden Administration with that of Trump’s nominations; Trump is a disgrace. I am seriously concerned for the minorities in the USA, the LGBTQ community, and Native Americans.

There is something very wrong here. The USA should never be in retreat when it comes to diversity and inclusion. The USA needs its brain trust and our children deserve to be represented at the highest levels of government. From where I sit this is nothing but arrogance and complete disrespect for the American people.

There was an attack on the UN in Lebanon?

(Click here) 

I guess so. (Click here) Qatar is citing violations in international law. 

Resolution 1701 was adopted in 2006 (Click here)

It appears to me the UAE is concerned about regional stability as well as its plans to combat the Climate Crisis. The Saudis have engaged talks with France, the USA regarding the Middle East and Ukraine was discussed with Russia. I would be surprised if Russia wasn’t asked about any interest with Iran. 

The thing is this, the region has chronic religious migration. I am fairly confident none of these countries bargained for the continued escalation of war. They have more liberal border issues because of religious tourism. It would not surprise anyone if elements of Hamas or Hezbollah would be among those in religious migration.

These other countries must be given some sort of immunity from Israel’s wrath until they can get up to speed to prevent and/or end such danger to their populations. I read there was an incident in Jordan. That is unthinkable.

The USA must have a solid resolve regarding Venezuela. It is where Hezbollah operates its drug cartel. When “I surrender” Donald gets into office he’ll hand over the USA to them. 

This came in a roll of quarters from the bank.

(Click here)

Starting in December merchants throughout the world will not have to accept mutilated money as legal tender.

I went to put this quarter in a coin slot and it wouldn’t accept it. Thinking it was a malfunction I tried it again, and again it was returned to me. So, I looked closer and realized it was grossly mutilated by someone harvesting silver from quarters. 

Someone decided they could legally mutilate this quarter for silver and get away with it. This is the kind of criminality that exists in the USA now. There is no respect for anything.

So, in realizing the monetary policy should protect the integrity of the instrument of money Secretary Yellin has instituted changes in policy to end this form of criminality regarding USA currency. 

This quarter still has value but it will be upto me to take it back to the bank for an exchange for one that still has integrity that a coin slot recognizes.

I thank Secretary Yellin for paying attention to details that others have ignored.

Speaker Johnson…

…has stated there are 3 million violent undocumented in the USA to help signal his willingness to cooperate with a national emergency declaration. I hope he has proof of that and law enforcement’s unwillingness to act. 

Enormous mistake…

…is about to happen if the Republicans start to act as if immune to any violent act. The ICC exists as a deterrent to escalating tensions and war. It is a measure of humanity left on Earth. If Republicans move into the column of those that leverage power against humanity they will have completely changed the character of this country and opened it to danger not yet measured in national security. They need to act cautiously. Trump has already assassinated two Iranian generals with impunity. The Republicans should act cautiously to repeat these horrors. 

The ICC should be immune from sanctions and rely on conscience and member opinion and dialogue for any indiscretions. They don’t make enormous amounts of money. I don’t know what good sanctions will do.

He’s back.

I don’t imagine Dearborn, Michigan is happy today. Gorka is intelligence now. 

Things aren’t going to get better for the Palestinians. Israeli settlers are already moving into the West Bank. And a Republican Congress is set to legislate sanctions on the chief at the ICC. If the legislature fails then Trump will write an Executive Order for sanctions at the ICC. I think the Executive Order can be challenged.

Blind to the truth.

Does anyone believe anything said in Mar-a-lago? The place needs to be refurbished, what do you say, Elon? And then there are the golf courses that need primping. How about an investment in exchange for NASA?

If people sell their interests in Tesla and SpaceX Elon has no one to blame but himself and his extremist political views. 

Grimes is not alone.

 (Click here)

I think many people, including myself, witnessed a radical change in Elon Musk. It is what makes him a greater and growing to our national security.

I firmly believe Elon can’t be trusted. What the country thinks doesn’t matter now. Elon will have his way with Trump in office. 

There is going to be a lot of damage done to the USA in four years. We can only hope Biden’s four years of push back was enough.

There is a girl in Canada in intensive care with a mutated strain of the bird flu. Nothing should be dismissed as simply one infection. Bird flu can spread like wildfire. We’ve seen in the early 1900s. 

The vaccines are in order. The virus is being given an opportunity to mutate. People need to be vaccinated to end the opportunities for mutations.

Vladimir Putin has it all wrong.

No one in this world is interested in invading Russia and change its sovereign identity. He needs to take his military back within Russian borders and this would all be over. 

(Click here)

Ukraine is and always has been interested in being an independent state, just as all the other Post-Soviet states. Ukraine has an obligation to the world in that it’s magnificent farmland can feed a very large percentage of those that are hungry. It is that which Putin needs to concentrate.

The days of the Soviet Union are over. The country was too large to protect no matter what military were to do it. There is no conventional weaponry capable of securing the former Soviet Union. It is why the nuclear capacity of the country was considered important.

The Post Soviet States have good quality of life for their people. Their citizens want to be free and not captive to regressive regimes. Continuing to rant about threats to democracy and nuclear strikes is a losing strategy, especially when it was never necessary in the first place.

Communists always WANT to believe there is some sort of evil plot against them by Free Nations of people. NO ONE IS INTERESTED.

The paradigm of strong militaries exists because everyone has their politics wrong. The never ending story of mutual hatred is the wrong political message. Aggression for land by free countries does not exist. We are no longer kingdoms. There is no head of state  looking for economic exploitation of any country.

Vladimir Putin is causing self-destruction and that of Russia. He is dragging other countries into a war they had nothing to do with.

Russia lost this war within the first week. The only reason this is continuing is because of wayward ideology with no basis in reality. 

NO ONE IS COMING FOR RUSSIA.

The Free World cannot stand by and watch this anymore. It isn’t even called a war, is it? What it is, is an ideological incursion into what was an unarmed country. Ukraine would gladly go back to being within its borders seeking trade with all it’s neighbors, but, somehow that is a threat to Russia, huh?

Vladimir Putin has ruined Russia. It not only has thousands upon thousands of dead citizens and any other sympathetic soldiers, it now has to accept soldiers from other countries to pretend it is important enough to the sovereign state of Russia. 

NO ONE IS COMING FOR RUSSIA!

Putin is in the position of protecting himself as a man guilty of human rights abuses and genocide of Ukraine’s children. That is the real problem and he doesn’t care what type of war engagement it takes to protect himself from prison or worse.

If Putin begins to release nuclear weapons there are no winners. Putin is standing at the door of mutual annihilation. Of all the profoundly evil men in this world he is the first to have access to nuclear weapons to protect his own life. It is astounding he is so intractable in a resolve to return the Soviet Union to existence. Certainly he knows how hideous this is. 

. 

NO ONE IS COMING FOR RUSSIA and no one is allowing Russia to come for us!

Vladimir Putin needs to stop this ridiculous aggression with no basis in reality and he needs to stop it now.

The Manhattan DA’s Office is exactly correct.

(Click here)

Once the Attorney General is in place she can file for a dismissal based on Trump’s re-election and supposed Supreme Court ruling. Them Then the convicted criminal and his Attorneys General can argue their case. 

Here is a bit of reality orientation for the amateur Trump administration.

(Click here)

The USA is a democracy of, by, and for the people. Soldiers are citizens that took up the call for readiness and during their service died in protecting the idea of their mighty country.

1.1 million soldiers dead in service to the USA since it’s inception.

And that is only the bloodshed. That doesn’t account for the wounded both physically and mentally.

THIS idea of defunding the federal government is dead on arrival.

This country exists because of the magnificent men and women of the USA military. Trump’s homey boys never served a day in their life and this is the genius they pretend to have?

The million-billionaires of the USA are spoiled brats with drool running out of their mouths for USA Treasury money. Maybe we should simply defund the space program? What do you say? The private space business certainly can exist with their profits. They don’t need USA Treasury welfare to exist anymore, right?

Elon and his friend prioritize their space investments over the lives of Americans that they should be grateful exist. I don’t believe Musk realizes how delicate the space program is in relationship to the lived of Americans. This country will soon be 250 years old. The space program has been around from Kennedy, but, this country’s people and military have been around for more than 250 years. Musk needs to get real about what is important about life. 

These guys are trippin’.

(Click here)

Trump is proposing throwing our veterans under the bus?

NIH is invaluable. Absolutely invaluable. This is ridiculous. This is how Musk sees his role in seeking pork and duplicity? Seriously. There is no genius in this. 

In seeking power in controlling government money, Elon Musk couldn’t see his way clear to increase taxes on the filthy rich? Seriously. Veterans’ health care is to be eliminated while billionaires are tax free? It definitely and without a doubt it sounds exactly like Donald John Trump. Does Trump ever believe he will have a well staffed military after this?

Defense Secretary

Setting aside the sexual exploits of most of Trump’s cabinet nominees;

Is the name Pete Hegseth…

OR

Five Star General Commander Pete Hegseth? 

He was a major. He was a field commander. That does not qualify him to be Secretary of Defense.

Has he ever been to the Pentagon other than as a tourist?

Will he be meeting the Joint Chiefs for the first time at an inaugural party? 

Does he understand the nuclear triad? Is it state of the art and if not, why not?

Knowing the affection Trump has for the USA’s enemies, and Russia was posing an eminent threat; would he stand down in the face of that danger if Trump says so? Would he surrender the most powerful military the world has ever known? Would he wave at Venezuela’s nuclear jets as they landed at Dulles? 

Does Major Hegseth believe Trump won the 2020 election? Does he actually think the 2020 election was stolen?

Angry Donald?

I am certain Trump is more than annoyed his nominees aren’t accepted with adulation. But, this is the problem with Trump. He doesn’t get it. Realizing how he lived his life in complete opposition to good practices in life and business he never “got it.”

The government is not about breaking rules for a certain personal outcome, it is about upholding values that all people value. Governance IS NOT JUST ABOUT HIM. 

There is nothing wrong with change, but, completely reordering the government to his own personal ideology is not possible in a democracy as great and diverse as the USA.

All of his nominees are his friends. They think the same as he does. They are all wealthy and like the privilege wealth brings them. It isn’t that people dislike the nominees personally, it is that they are not qualified.

The difference between he and Former President Obama is 180 degrees. Obama welcomed diversity of thought to his cabinet. He thrived with dialogue and advice different than his own. President Obama is a brilliant man, but he is always open to suggestions and opinion different than his before making critical decisions. Obama never had an agenda as Trump. President Obama lead. He did not dictate. There was no my way of the highway.

President Obama was admired for his life accomplishments even before he took office. The world and allies longed for his dialogue to be a part of theirs, so much so they awarded him the Nobel early in his presidency. In contrast Trump will never know the power of reputation that leads to peace, so much as brutal handling of other human beings. 

Obama’s reputation preceded him. He elevated others simply by being in his presence. Trump will never achieve what Obama did. Trump’s cabinet is a reflection of that truth. Trump embraces lies. He is the tabloid president.

Matt Gaetz is a terrible guy. Trump wants revisionist history, that is why Gaetz is important to Trump.

There isn't anything exceptional about this. He is a reflection of the beliefs of Trump and Trump World. We know he is a terrible guy. There isn't anything new here.

Left is Florida District 1.

WASHINGTON — Former Rep. Matt Gaetz, (click here) the Florida Republican who Donald Trump wants to be the next attorney general of the United States, has spread lies about the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and championed the cause of Jan. 6 defendants whose cases he would oversee if confirmed to the job.

Trump’s nomination of Gaetz, the recent target of a federal sex trafficking probe that ended without charges, has sent shockwaves through Congress and through the Justice Department, a law enforcement institution that Gaetz himself has repeatedly targeted, including with false claims.

“Many attorneys and staff are struggling to find the right emotional response to the reality that’s unfolding before us,” said one law enforcement source close to the Jan. 6 investigation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to speak candidly about the potential head of their department....

Besides realizing Gaetz has every intention of nullifying the reality of January 6, 2021, he will do so by turning loose the prisoners currently responsible for the acts of violence that day. He isn't making the USA safer.

Federal investigators (click here) established a trail of payments from Matt Gaetz, President-elect Donald J. Trump’s choice to be attorney general, to women including some who testified that Mr. Gaetz hired them for sex, according to a document obtained by The New York Times and a lawyer representing some of the women.

The document, assembled by investigators during a three-year sex-trafficking investigation into Mr. Gaetz, is a chart that shows a web of thousands of dollars in Venmo payments between Mr. Gaetz and a group of his friends, associates and women who had drug-fueled sex parties between 2017 and 2020, according to testimony that participants are said to have given to federal and congressional investigators.

At the parties, women, and a girl who was 17 at the time, were paid for sex, according to accounts of the participants’ testimony from people briefed on what they said.

The document bolsters recent claims by a lawyer for two of the women who say they had sex with Mr. Gaetz for money. It shows thousands of dollars in payments Mr. Gaetz made to both of the lawyer’s clients....

The SEX CONNECTION OF TRUMP APPOINTEES DOESN'T END WITH GAETZ.

These are the moral police, right? I mean Trump is the second coming.

His Secretary of Education is linked to child sexual molestation. Are children safe with McMahon's look the other way lifestyle? 

November 20, 2024

By Ivana Saric

Trump tapped Linda McMahon, (click here) his transition team co-chair and a former WWE executive, to serve as the next secretary of Education.

- A lawsuit filed last month on behalf of five former WWE "Ring Boys" accused McMahon and her husband, WWE mogul Vince McMahon, of being complicit in the grooming and sexual exploitation of children.

- The lawsuit alleged the McMahons knowingly gave ringside announcer Melvin Phillips Jr. "free reign" to entice boys as young as 12 or 13 to help around the shows.

- The lawsuit also alleged that the McMahons knew since at least as early as the 1980s that Phillips had a "peculiar and unnatural interest" in boys....

Florida has a rather significant problem with prostitution. Polk County is in the center of the State of Florida. The sex trade practices in Florida are wide spread.

Just sayin'.

President Barack Obama

(Click here)

President Obama holds the lowest homicide rate in the USA. It was consistently low all the years he was in office. 2014 was the best. Rates started to go up when Trump arrived on the political scene June of 2015. The rate of homicide under Trump escalated with 2020 his highest and among the highest in the last 34 years.

Trump likes to grandstand about undocumented crimes especially when the victim is a woman because his record on escalating violence in general while involved with politics is abysmal.

It was slowing down again with President Biden in office, but, with Trump carrying on like a two year old it still was far higher than it should be. It will increase and skyrocket again next year. This should be a huge issue for the 2026 elections. Trump has a horrible record on most things.

President Obama had a great Attorney General and Eric Holder did not put up with police abuse of power. As a matter of fact 2014 was the year Michael Brown (click here) was mercilessly gunned down over two packs of Cigarillos. It was the year Ferguson, Missouri met Eric Holder. Michael Brown was supposed to go to college a short while after his death. Michael Brown was a big burley man. He was loved by his family and lost his life needlessly. He was a threat to no one. There were so many, Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Freddie Grey, Alton Sterling, Walter Scott, Oscar Grant, Philando Castile, and Brionna Taylor. That is a short list. All Americans going about their lives with no intention of confronting a police officer. 

Two packs of Cigarillos is a misdemeanor. There should have been a police report and a visit to his family’s home, not a man hunt.

Singling out an undocumented worker for political points is racism. The fact of the matter is Trump can’t reduce violence so much as propagate it. Laken Riley’s death while tragic occurred in escalating hate speech by Trump. He is going to use her death to declare a national emergency to round up human beings in this country. The problem of homicides in the USA is a lot bigger than a Georgia nursing student death.

There is no rash of violence by undocumented workers in the USA. At least they show up for work and love their families while escaping violence in their home countries that no doubt will have funding pulled yet again.

The undocumented employers should stand with them against a president making a problem where it doesn’t exist.

I once worked as a tractor trailer driver. Met a lot of people, mostly men who were once living a hard life or in prison at one time. The drivers would chatter among themselves on the CB radios. I was a woman’s voice so it toned the conversations differently. The men were revealing of their lives in those conversations and they formed friendships that never existed before. They were elevated by humor and acceptance.

I drove exempt freight from Boston frozen fish to carrots and greens from McAllen, Texas and watermelons from Medina, California to Hunt’s Point Market. Rarely in those runs were there “neat” loads handled by tow motor. Most of the time it was the undocumented or migrant labor that loaded my haul on a 48 foot Dane trailer with a Thunderbird refrigerator. Those people were invaluable. They moved the food supply of a nation. 

I was ridiculed when I cranked up the Thunderbird while “the wetbacks” loaded my rig. All I remembered were the smiles and big “thank yous” as they left the trailer and I padlocked the door. 

Americans don’t realize how their country actually runs and how dysfunctional it will become with a communist president that hates rather seeks domestic tranquility.

I think they got it exactly right. What is concerning is that it was necessary in the first place.

The couple are leaders in their community. If they get it right they can be sure others do as well. Mika is a daughter of a world famous diplomat and she knows how it works when meaningful connections need to be made to prevent misunderstanding. 

Mika is also an incredible women’s advocate. She holds an important place in New York City as well as an enormous following of women across the country. 

Joe says it like it is and has witnessed many Republicans leave office and also stand up for the American democracy. He has a sensitive place in the media services in the country. I think he is brave to have reality set straight considering the parties involved in what may become a dangerous world.

We need this couple to be a strong voice for citizens of this magnificent democracy. 

Scott Pelley is a great American.

I admire and congratulate everyone involved in the production of “60 Minutes.” The display of loyalty to this great country in calling out the dangerous extremism of Trump’s regime is by far the most important step forward in defending liberty, freedom, allies, democracy, humanity, and Earth.
