If Nukes Are 'On The Table' in Drumpf's Iran War - Perhaps Its Time to Take the Table Away From DonOld

Suffice to say that if the demented orange lunatic deploys nukes against Iran, life as you and I know it here in the United States of America instantly changes forever, and it will not be change for the good:

 

Link:  Panic as nukes feared to be ‘on the table now’ after ‘disgusting’ Trump threat - Raw Story

 

"President Donald Trump’s escalating threats to effectively destroy Iran set off alarm Tuesday, with one foreign-policy analyst warning that the president appeared to be signaling that nuclear weapons were “on the table now.”

Trump announced on Truth Social that the United States was striking Iranian targets near the Strait of Hormuz in retaliation for what he called Iran’s failed attempt to add sea mines to the waterway and its launch of eight missiles toward a U.S. military base in Jordan.

Trump went even further in a later phone call with Fox News, where he warned that Iran would be hit “much harder” if it retaliated - and even “wiped out as a country” if the conflict continued."

  

He was warned by his own military and intelligence people, before he had Kegseth fire them all, that going to war with Iran alongside Bibi Netanyahu and Israel was a very bad idea.

Drumpf ignored that wiser advice and instead let blustering buffoons like Netanyahoo, Hegseth and Lindsey Graham (karmic justice there?) and the MAGA chuds on social media convince him that it was a great idea to go to war with Iran and that the US would win a cakewalk war in just a few short weeks.

We're now nearly seven months in to Donny and Pete's cakewalk war.  Where are we at?

There have been several hundred US troop casualties and more than a dozen US troop deaths.

Most of the US military bases in the gulf region of the Mideast have been destroyed by Iran's retaliatory strikes.

Our defensive and offensive munitions have been greatly depleted.

God knows how many billions of US taxpayer money has been spent so far - this administration's reported numbers are not trustworthy. 

Our traditional allies have distanced themselves from this war, and rightly so.

This war is quickly and clearly becoming a 'quagmire' for the US military and a quicksand trap that Drumpf and his clown college administration have stumbled America into.

The mere fact that the filthy old mobbed-up kiddie diddler is contemplating the use of nuclear weapons is evidence enough that he understand perfectly well what kind of trap he has gotten himself and the country in to, and the pangs of desperation are beginning to hard set in.

But nothing to see or worry about here, amiright?  Just a demented old, desperate felon who took the US to war without the consent of the American people or their representatives in Congress, is now seemingly losing that war, and he has control of the entire nuclear arsenal of the United States of America.  Just fucking lovely, isn't it?

If Drumpf, or Netanyahoo, or Pootin - any one of this triumvirate of evil - chooses to deploy nuclear weapons in their wars of choice, it very well could be the triggering event of World War 3.

And all you need to know about the consequences of World War 3 breaking out is Albert Einstein's famous quote on the matter:

Netanyahu's "Influence" on the US is Toxic. The Time Has Come to Cleanse This Toxin From Our American System.

This should dispel any lingering doubts as to whether or not Israel's government is a good faith ally of the United States.

They are nothing of the sort.

Perhaps at one time Israel was a semi-trustworthy, valuable, and strategic Mideast ally of the US.  Now they are nothing more than a colossally costly lead weight anchor hanging around the necks of the American people.  It is long past time for the Unites States to seriously re-evaluate our country's relationship with the criminally corrupt, rogue  government of Israel that is currently led by an indicted felon (sound familiar?) who has been charged with war crimes by the UN:

"Onlookers were left in shock Tuesday after the leader of a U.S. ally openly boasted on live television about a successful "influence" campaign waged on American leaders to push the U.S. into launching its deeply unpopular war against Iran.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to Israel's popular Channel 14 Sunday night with a pitch to voters.

“I’ve been against Iran for almost 40 years… it took a long time to bring the United States to its senses,” Netanyahu said in Hebrew, according to Zeteo’s Prem Thakker.

“[I’ve had] close to 1,000 hours on American television with the ability to influence the United States — with the intimate knowledge of all its leaders, both those who support us and those who don’t support us — the ability to navigate this field, through it.”

“Netanyahu explicitly cites how the U.S. media has served as a compliant springboard, a vessel for his influence operation on, if not the populace, at least the consultants and members of Congress who engage with cable news more than their actual constituents.”

Breck Worsham, a prominent right-wing influencer and ex-Trump supporter, expressed shock at how Netanyahu appeared to openly brag “on how he manipulated Trump,” as did journalist Max Blumenthal.

“Netanyahu appeals to Israeli voters by boasting that he manipulated Trump,” Blumenthal observed." 

 

Netanyahu bragging on Israeli TV to his acolytes about how he has spent years successfully manipulating Drumpf, American politicians, and American media companies in to going to war in Iran alongside Israel really should tell Americans everything they need to know about our country's unholy alliance* with an unscrupulous foreign government that is actively engaging in acts of mass murder and ethnic cleansing.

 

*And no -- being against Israel's corrupt, criminal government is not in any fucking sense whatsoever an anti-Semitic take for those wishing to go there in defense of Netanyahu's ratfuckery.

Threatening Death to American Cities: The Last Gasp Assholery of a Dying, Demented Despot

There he goes again, threatening the annihilation of another enemy city if they fail to bow to his demands.

Oh wait - it's not an enemy city that he is threatening this time you say, but an iconic American city?

Silly me, I should have known:

 

Link:  Trump threatens 'city will die' if it defies his demand for federal troops - Raw Story

  

"In the early morning hours Tuesday, President Donald Trump launched a new broadside at the city of Chicago, demanding that the mayor of the city and Gov. J.D. Pritzker (D) allow him to send in federal troops.

According to the president, a denial means the “city will die.”"

 

Speaking of dying.  When the crooked, diaper wearing old kiddie rapist finally strokes out of this world that he has forced us all to live in with him, it goes without saying that this planet will instantly become a significantly better place for all humans to exist on.

Pete Hegseth Will Learn the Hard Way that Testosterone Doesn't Win Wars, Or Keep Buffoonish 'Secretaries of War' Employed

There are bad vibes brewing among the rank and file US military leadership for the Iran war decision-making being done by Pistol Pete Kegseth and the fat orange Bohemian corporal directing him from the White House, and it all points to a very dismal reality:

 

Link:  ‘Never in my lifetime’: Shock as Pentagon breaks with history in ‘unprecedented’ move - Raw Story 

 

"A series of unprecedented Pentagon leaks stunned onlookers Monday, appearing designed to pull the United States out of a war rather than push it deeper in, breaking with decades of precedent.

On Sunday, The Washington Post published a bombshell report that revealed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had been warned by several U.S. military leaders that a prolonged large-scale operation against Iran was “unsustainable,” despite Hegseth’s claims to the contrary. The Post’s report was based on a recent classified assessment and inside sources, suggesting Pentagon officials had leaked the information to the outlet.

As argued by conservative commentator Saagar Enjeti, the leaks illustrated how poorly the deeply unpopular U.S. war against Iran had gone during its first six months.

“Never in my lifetime have I seen the Pentagon brass desperately leak to keep the US OUT of a war. It is always the opposite to box a President in,” Enjeti wrote Monday in a social media post on X. “Just shows how bad things are.”

Andrew Fox, a retired British Army major and military analyst, was equally stunned by the nature of the leaks.

“An astonishing leak, and not officially denied, to my knowledge,” Fox wrote Monday in a social media post on X. “A leak like this is unprecedented. Perhaps some US officers do remember the ‘and domestic’ part of their oath.”"  

 

It's simple.  Drumpf, against the advice of smarter people in his military and intelligence community, chose to join the US at Israel and Bibi Netanyahu's hip in launching a war against Iran as negotiations were ongoing.  And if everyone recalls, both Drumpf and Hegseth boasted that once they let loose with the bombs and missiles, the war would be over in a few weeks, Iran would capitulate, and the US would be greeted as conquering, oil-stealing liberators by the Iranian people, or some such similarly psychotic bullshit.

And now, more than six months into the ongoing war, the fact that DonOld's own military are leaking damaging shit about Commander McBraggseth is a tellingly bad sign that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth and their MAGA advisers took the United States to war out of testosterone-raging stupidity and arrogance, and it increasingly appears that they have essentially now lost that war.

This is what happens when you elect unqualified, incompetent clowns, posers, and blowhards to higher office.  The unqualified, incompetent clown, poser, and blowhard simply hires even more unqualified, incompetent clowns, posers, and blowhards and before you know it, what you've got on your hands is a literal circus of unqualified, incompetent clowns, posers, and blowhards which is exactly what we have with the Drumpf administration today.

The American Emperor is Renaming Lakes While The American Economy Burns

Sigh . . .

Americans could have had nice things that bettered the lives of all of us.

But sadly a slight majority of the voting adults opted to re-elect a draft-dodging, washed up, diaper wearing, carnival barking failed reality-TV show host, chronic liar and cheat, serial adulterer, adjudicated rapist, suspected child rapist, multi-indicted convicted felon, and a coup-plotting traitor who has openly expressed a desire to be America's first 'dictator.'

And predictably, this is the resulting insanity: 

 

Link:  'Can you imagine?' Trump hurls tantrum as Dem dubs 'Lake America' rename a 'SHAME' - Raw Story

 

"President Donald Trump admitted to befuddlement late Friday night when he took to Truth Social to rage at a political foe.

Trump lashed out at New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) after she refused to start calling Lake Ontario "Lake America" and cast blame on the president for prioritizing semantics over serious issues such as inflation.

"Governor Kathy Hochul is for Canada, a Country that has been ripping off New York State for years, especially under her Administration, instead of the good ‘ol U.S.A," Trump raged. "Can you imagine her saying that she won’t respect or acknowledge LAKE AMERICA.""

 

There's just no end to this embarrassing asshole and his buffoonish madness.  It is tearing this country apart at the seams, and it is now doing great harm to the long, long established good ties and relations with our neighboring country to the north, Canada.

With every passing day the evidence grows that all of Drumpf's derangement is by design.

We have seen him unilaterally throwing tariff tantrums at country's that refuse to bow down and kiss his golden ring.

He is childishly issuing 'Executive Orders' (aka Emperor Decrees) from the American people's White House ordering the renaming of large bodies of shared water such as the forever-named Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario to 'Gulf of America' and 'Lake America' in fits of anger at those countries for failing to heed his demands.

All of this irrational public behavior by the sitting American president is to diminish America's standing in the world, and to bring great long-term harm to the United States of America, the US economy, and the American people.

There is little explainable rationality to Drumpf's malignant actions -- unless of course those actions are being watched through the shaded, beady eyes of an equally malignant foreign interest, you know, like Vladimir Putin for example.

You just know that Uncle Vlad is excitedly watching his star asset 'Agent Krasnov' take control of one of the two major political parties in the US, rename the party MAGA, then cynically use that hijacked party along with guerilla warfare politics to divide Americans and pit them against each other.

It's also to Uncle Vlad's delight no doubt as he sees Krasnov embroil the United States in yet another forever war in the Mideast that will sink the US economy and bring long-lasting economic hardship to American consumers and further erode America's trust and standing in the world.

And of course, it would be negligent of me if I failed to mention how much Uncle Vlad must be pleased beyond his wishes hearing that his prized protégé deployed an armed and masked federalized (state) mercenary force with marching orders to commit 'ethnic cleansing' on American soil in broad daylight which has already resulted in the blood of slain US citizens being spilled in the streets of our American cities.

Good times for murdering despots and their compromised stooges, ye siree, good times indeed for Uncle Vlad.

Anyway - you know the drill.

All of this stupidity and craziness and treachery can end if enough Americans who truly care about the kind of future they are going to be leaving behind for their children and grandkids is a free and democratic future show up to the polls in every local, state, and federal election for the foreseeable future and refuse to vote for any candidate with the letter (R) after their name.

That is the first step towards righting a lot of wrongs that have been committed by some really shitty, selfish, un-American people in this country over the past decade.

A Cynical GOP Tries to Co-Opt An American Icon Who Was Nothing Like Them

On the heels of the sad news of iconic American singer Dolly Parton's passing yesterday, it's time again to remind everyone that the modern-day Republican party is a party run by ugly, selfish, vindictive people who have completely lost the plot when it comes to simple human decency and basic morality.

Case in point:

 

Link:  GOP lawmakers quietly slash funds for Dolly Parton children's book charity - Raw Story

 

"Republicans this year quietly cut millions of dollars of funding for the late and beloved Dolly Parton's children's book charity, according to multiple reports.

Imagination Library, the nonprofit founded by Parton that sends free books to children across the world, faces an uncertain future in Indiana and Missouri as Republican lawmakers limit public funding, Newsweek reported Wednesday.

The charity, meanwhile, has vowed to carry on."

   

Isn't it interesting that the Republican party never seems to have trouble finding copious amounts of American tax dollars to fund massive tax cuts for billionaire chuds like DonOld Drumpf, Elmo Muskrat, Jeff Bozos, and Mark Zuckerterd?

The party of 'trickle-down economics' never seems to encounter difficulty finding ungodly amounts of taxpayer money to fund new wars of choice, and to fatten the bank accounts of defense contractors by purchasing new weapons of war as well.

This manifestly corrupt Republican party was also all ready to sign on to Drumpf's brazen theft of $1.776 billion in taxpayer money that he was going to dole out to the January 6th terrorist thugs and felons after siphoning his cut from it.

They gave the ICE goons $75 billion of our tax dollars to outfit their masked thug army with weaponry they don't need and shouldn't have, and to build human concentration camps.

They let Drumpf piss $1 billion of your tax money down the toilet tearing down the historic East Wing of the American people's White House without permission to build a ginormous gold-leafed "ballroom" and dictator hideout bunker for DonOld and his apparatchiks.

And don't even get me started on Drumpf's colossally foolish decision to embroil America in Bibi Netanyahu's 'Big Iran Armageddon Adventure.' 

But some books for poor kids?  Nah. There's no money to be made in that for the grifters and charlatans who populate the now MAGA-controlled Republican party.

And that is why I don't want to hear one fucking word from these Republicans praising the legacy of Dolly Parton. These Republicans haven't earned the right to have the great Dolly Parton's name cross their phony hypocrite lips.

US vs Canada Trade War is Peak Drumpf Irrationality and Recklessness

Mr. Global (US/Intn'l oil and gas/energy expert Matt Randolph) can confirm that an all-out trade war between the US and Canada would not be a good thing for America's already shaky economy.  

Randolph is worth listening to and much worthier of credibility on the matter than the rantings of a dirty old liberal hippie on the pages of this shitty little blog.

Therefore - go give Mr. Global a few minutes of your time and allow him to explain some things to you about Dumbass DonOld's trade war threats against Canada and the implications that might affect you personally (hint: 💲💲) if it gets out of control.

King Drumpf Decrees Another Large Body of Water to Be an American Possession - Ready the Straitjacket

This nation needs to hang it's head in collective shame for allowing this embarrassing buffoon to continue dragging our country into the gutter of his own demented assholery:

 
 

Link:  Trump Threatens to Rename Lake Ontario as Spat With Canada Escalates - WSJ

 

"WASHINGTON—President Trump threatened to change the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America,” in the latest escalation of tensions between the U.S. and Canada after trade negotiations between the two countries collapsed.

On Tuesday, Trump wrote on Truth Social that the U.S. is “giving serious consideration” to the name change because it didn’t expect to be “doing much business with Ontario any longer.”"

 

DonOld threatened Canada with "severe consequences" the other day after the Canadian Prime Minister  responded to his massive call of across the board 50% tariffs on imported Canadian goods by putting out a public statement that Canada would reciprocate in kind with "dollar for dollar" tariffs on US imports into their country.

And true to form, like the toddler he is, this is apparently the first wave of of those "severe consequences" from King DonOld: 

 

 

The Canadians have essentially had enough of Drumpf's bullying and manically spontaneous threats, and the blustering accusations about past US/Canada trade relations which are primarily lies.

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney is a serious man with serious political and career accomplishment credentials that make Drumpf look exactly like the low-life mobster that he has always been.

Carney has a degree from Harvard in economics.  He has a doctorate in economics from the distinguished University of Oxford.  He was the first non-British person to be appointed as Governor of the Bank of England.  He has served honorably in a variety of positions in Canadian government for many years and was popularly elected Prime Minister of Canada in March of last year.  

Carney is generally considered to be a political moderate, but Drumpf's completely erratic and unserious actions and behaviors during the recent US/Canadian trade talks more or less has convinced Carney that the US POTUS is hopelessly and intractably demented, and that Canada isn't going to entertain any deals while Drumpf is in office.

Therefore Americans get higher prices on Canadian imports and Canada is going to forge ahead with plans to do less trade with the US and more trade with Europe.

And no - having Canada turn away from doing trade with the US is not a good thing for America or our economy.  It is not a good thing at all.  

Canada is the second largest trading nation with the US behind Mexico and ahead of China: 

As you can see, Canada, at -24 has a much lower trade imbalance with the US than most of the other countries in that top ten list of trading partners.

Also, the overall Total trade imbalance that the US has with all of it's trading partners is -901.5: 

 

Link:  List of the largest trading partners of the United States - Wikipedia 

 

So why is Drumpf picking on Canada?  Because the Canadian leader Mark Carney refuses to bow down on his knees and kiss the filthy old mobster's ring.

Carney is telling Drumpf straight up that he has no patience or time for DonOld's adolescent behavior and arrogant gamesmanship - period.

Unlike Diaper Donny, Mark Carney has a nation to run and a citizenry to responsibly answer to and protect, and he is going to do what is in the best interests of his nation and his people, DonOld Drumpf be damned.

On this side of the border, Drumpf couldn't give less of a shit what his tariff wars do to the American economy, American businesses, American farmers, and American consumers.  

All that DonOld cares about is what he himself gets out of any deal.  What's in it for DonOld and his "friends" is always the prime negotiating point in every transaction the mobbed-up old con artist is involved in.

DonOld is just showing us all how things work in the mob world when it comes to making "deals."  The mob boss always gets his generous cut of the shakedown loot and that is an unbreakable tenet of that line of Drumpfian 'business.'

Anyway, long enough harangue.  Support our neighbors to the north.  Refuse to vote for a single candidate or politician with the letter (R) after their name for the foreseeable future. That's how we put an end to the orange lunatic's tragicomic subversion of our constitution, our laws, our democracy, and our sense of decency. 

Taking power away from Drumpf, MAGA and the hopelessly corrupt and morally impoverished Republican party is the first step toward re-establishing some sense of normalcy and sanity in our government and putting America on the road to recovery from Orange Caligula's Canada-bashing reign of terror.

Nobody Does "Blatanty Corrupt" as Good as DonOld Drumpf Does It

The six morally and ethically compromised conservative justices on the US Supreme Court just rubber-stamped the right of DonOld Drumpf, the 34 times convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and suspected child rapist to CONTINUE with his administration's efforts to interfere with American citizen's ability to vote by mail in this November's midterm elections - specifically in states that have defied his administrations demand for all of the private voter data from their voting rolls (Hint: almost all blue states):

 

 

Link:  ‘Blatantly corrupt’: Critics snap after Supreme Court hands Trump mail-vote win - Raw Story

 

"Critics erupted Monday after the Supreme Court cleared the way for President Donald Trump to move forward with an executive order restricting mail-in voting ahead of the midterm elections.

“This court is blatantly corrupt. It’s honestly laughable,” political scientist and author Conor J. Kelly wrote on X minutes after the ruling’s release.

The unsigned order handed Trump at least a provisional victory after Democratic officials in 23 states and Washington, D.C., sued to block his directive. The court’s three liberal justices dissented."

  

It was a given that hypocrites and ethically-challenged doorknobs like Alito, Thomas, and Kavanaugh would side with those voter suppression efforts by Drumpf and his apparatchiks.

It was only tepidly surprising to see Gorsuch, Coney-Barrett and Roberts sign on to this kind of election ratfuckery less than three months before probably the most pivotal election in this country's 250-year history.

This is an election that could very well decide whether the American people continue living as free humans in a nation where our American constitution is the final word in the laws of our land, and no one man and no one political party are above the laws set forth by that founding document.

Or, we go the repressive, despotic, autocratic billionaire-controlled path like is done in Russia with a thoroughly corrupted dear leader who wins 80-90% of the corrupted vote in corrupted election after corrupted election, and when the corrupt despot dies, they hand off the reigns of corrupt power to their corrupt family and corrupt collaborators.

It goes without saying that it is probably a good idea for anyone who is planning to vote by mail-in ballot in any of the 23 or so US states that refuse to bow to Drumpf's threats to hand over the private data of their voters to the most corrupt administration in history, to make sure your mail-in ballot is mailed in as far in advance as possible.

It is also highly recommended that everyone should dutifully check and keep re-checking their voter registration status right up until election day, more so if you are a blue voter in a state where Republicans control everything (Texas, Florida, etc...), but more importantly in the critical battleground states.

Drumpf and his people are hell-bent on ensuring that Republicans retain control of the House and Senate and have not been shy at all about their intentions to resort to unconstitutional and illegitimate remedies to preserve Drumpf's pedophilia-stained presidency if that is what it takes to do so.

So please believe these bastards when they threaten your ability to exercise your fundamental constitutional right as an American citizen to participate in our electoral process.  Protect your right to vote, stand up and speak out for your right to vote, and exercise that right to vote.

And for those intending to exercise that right to vote in this fall's midterms . . . do choose wisely - it may very well be the last time you have a choice in who governs over you.

The 'Epstein Files' are Drumpf's Very Own Strain of an STD That There is No Cure For

Ah yes, the story which is at the core of everything that is happening in Drumpfworld right now roars back into the spotlight - where it rightfully belongs I might add:

 

Link:  ‘Missing’ Epstein files containing major allegations against Trump discovered: report - Raw Story

  

"Supposed FBI files that have previously been referred to as “missing” were recently discovered sitting on an online document-sharing platform, files that former MSNBC host Katie Phang said Saturday contain “allegations of sexual abuse committed by Donald Trump” against a 13- to 15-year-old victim, according to a report published Saturday.

Back in February, the Justice Department (DOJ) announced it was investigating claims that it had withheld a select trove of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ had justified withholding some of the files by describing them as "duplicative" of material already turned over, a characterization that has since come under scrutiny.

A growing number of critics increasingly pointed to a trove of 37 pages of FBI handwritten notes taken during a 2019 interview with “Jane Doe 4,” a South Carolina woman who accused Trump and Epstein of sexual and physical abuse beginning when she was 13 years old.

The woman  by twas interviewed four separate times by the FBI and was found credible by the agency, according to a DOJ source who spoke with the Miami Herald."

 

All of Drumpf's madness.

The Iran war boondoggle and the billions wasted only to be losing.

The destructive tariff wars that are strangling our economy.

The looting of our treasury to give tax cuts to billionaires.

The building of billion dollar gold-leafed ballrooms, and the plan to build a gold-leafed, Nazi-era inspired Victory Arch, all while our American troops whom he has sent to war are forced to eat moldy food and live in floating septic tanks.

The purposeful hiring of compromised, incompetent, yellow-bellied stooges and fellow 'Epstein Files' alumni to high level positions of government (Hegseth, Blanche, Patel, Rubio, Duffy, Mullin, Burgum, Lutnick, Warsh, etc.).

The massive amount of personally profiting off of the office of the presidency.

The alienating of traditional US allies and the cozying up to dictators like Putin and Kim. 

The ICE goons and their terrorism.

All of it collectively was, and still is a calculated, cynical effort to keep DonOld and his "friends" from being outed to the world as child rapists and participants in the expansive international sex trafficking ring that was run by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, and which catered to the wealthy 'elites' of the world - elites just like DonOld Drumpf.
