Will Truckers and Farmers Ever Learn to Stop Voting to Destroy Their Own Industries and Bottom Lines?

Long-winded harangue here, so grab a cup of coffee and settle in...

➰ 

I harbor no gratuitously ill will toward any of my fellow Americans, except maybe Drumpf himself, his crooked spawn, and the menagerie of human scumbags and grifting parasites he surrounds himself with and who enable him.

But here's the thing that incessantly bothers me though and tests my moral will on that matter... 

Exit polling in the 2024 election showed that 75% of voters who identified their occupation as being long-haul truck drivers voted for Donald Trump.  That would be approximately the same percentile range of voters identifying as farmers who also voted for Trump incidentally.

So we've established that around 75% of truckers and farmers voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 election. 

They voted for him even after everything he had done in his first term, the million dead in Covid, the violent coup attempt on January 6, 2021, the felony convictions in New York, being found to be a rapist by the court in his E. Jean Carroll case,  and the expanding revelations of his involvement with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. 

They voted for Donald Trump despite all of those warnings from many, including yours truly here, that Drumpf would eventually betray this country, betray the American people, betray them, and make their lives significantly more miserable for a longer period of time than if they had just not voted for him at all.

They refused to listen.  Many thumbed their noses at those of us who were issuing those warnings and told us to go fuck ourselves.

And here we are:

"Now, small trucking operators are increasingly filing for bankruptcy, with the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association warning more will follow if fuel prices remain elevated.

“Small operators, which dominate registered motor carrier companies, can’t keep up: More than a dozen have filed for bankruptcy in the past month, and the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association warns more will follow if fuel prices don’t drop,” the Journal reported.

The Journal spoke with several truckers at a Flying J Travel Center in Orange, Texas, including Agron Berani, whom the Journal documented paying $944.44 to fill up his 18-wheeler with diesel fuel, which the Journal noted would have cost around $500 a year ago.

“We have to do what we have to do,” Berani, who voted for Trump in 2024, told the Journal. “I can’t sell the truck. What am I going to do if I sell the truck?”" 

 

What you should do dude is stop voting for culture warrior con artists like Drumpf and MAGA - in other words, stop voting to harm yourself.  What a concept, eh?

C'est la vie.

And then this of course:

 

Link:  American farmers are hurting -- and worried about their futures : NPR 

 

"Nationwide, some 200,000 farms have gone out of business since 2020, Parum says.

"Farmers are saying, 'we're ready to throw in the towel,'" says Joe Peiffer, a bankruptcy attorney who works with farmers in Iowa, Missouri and Illinois. He says clients tell him, "We're sick of working our back ends off and losing money."

For the 12 months ending in June, farm bankruptcies were up 19% from the previous year. But most farmers are reluctant to quit the business altogether." 

 

The farmers voted for the orange felon by a 3-to-1 margin in 2024 as well, even after Biden had stepped in and saved their asses from Drumpf's tariffs having fucked them over in his first term:

 

Link:  Farmers flourish under Biden, see recovery from Trump-era trade wars

 

"WASHINGTON — Donald Trump often espoused his love for America's farmers during his presidency.

But after a year under President Joe Biden, farmers say they're actually feeling the love.

"Well, certainly the difference between 2019 and 2021 is the differences in administrations," Montana Farmers Union President Walter Schweitzer said in an interview. "In 2019, our administration was at war with all of our customers." Under Biden, he said, the nation is "rebuilding our relationships with our customers.""

 

Drumpf "often espouses" a lot of shit which becomes utterly meaningless the second the words pass from his crusted old lips, words which he has no intention of ever following through on because he is a pathological liar and a double-dealing con artist.

Biden saved these farmer's asses from Drumpf's incompetence and ratfuckery and they turned around and helped re-elect the filthy old mobster in 2024 as a thank you.

I mean, ffs, what did these farmers think was going to happen if they gave the presidency back to the guy who stabbed them in the back in his first term with his stupid, ill-advised tariff wars and wrecked economy from his mishandling of the covid pandemic.

What did they think was going to happen by reelecting someone who instigated a violent coup after losing in 2020, then racked up multiple felony indictments and convictions between 2020 and 2024, and became the central figure in the scandalous 'Epstein Files' child sex trafficking investigation, and was indicted by Jack Smith for conspiracy against the United States?

What in God's name did these guys think was going to take place if they reelected such a manifestly unfit, compromised individual??

Frankly, I don't have much faith that many of the 75% of truckers and farmers who voted for Drumpf in 2024 will renounce their votes or their support of the mobbed-up old kiddie diddler.  That is just how thoroughly invested they are in their loyalty to him.

The uninformed stupidity, the cult of personality devotion, and the penchant for chronically voting against their own self-interests is deeply ingrained in the captured mindsets of most of these conservative Republican voters, and unfortunately they will likely need to experience economic devastation and misery on a scale similar to or even worse than the 'Great Depression' before they ever consider the option of walking away from their orange, diaper-shitting savior.

'Turdblossom' Is Sounding the, 'Nazis are Here and They is Us!' Alarm Bells - Will GOP Voters Listen?

It's funny how shit comes full circle in life.

I have been blaring my heretical views about American politics into the cyber wilderness for years on the pages of this shitty little blog, and I have to say that this has to be one of the more cathartic developments that I have witnessed in all my time observing and commenting on US politics:

 

Link:  Karl Rove says Republican Party is being taken over by 'Nazis' - San Antonio Current

 

 "Longtime Republican political operative Karl Rove said his party is being taken over by “Nazis” and railed against the moral failings of U.S. Senate candidate Ken Paxton during a one-on-one interview at the Texas Tribune Festival over the weekend.

The former George W. Bush White House deputy chief of staff’s criticism comes as Republicans grow increasingly concerned they may rack up serious setbacks in the 2026 midterms as Democrats, including state Reps. James Talarico and Gina Hinojosa surge in the polls."

 

A search of the posts on this shitty little blog will come up with several past posts that excoriate the ol' Texas "Turdblossom."   

Turdblossom was President George W. Bush's nickname for Karl Rove who was his close aide and political guru who had helped propel Bush from the Texas governorship into the White House. 

It stuns me that we have arrived at the stage where former hardcore conservative operative and right-hand man to former conservative Republican President George W. Bush, Karl Rove, is saying pretty much the same thing that I and many others have been saying for years - that the party of Abraham Lincoln, the party of 'moral values' and 'family values,' the party of mom, apple pie, baseball, and the American flag, has been hijacked by a bunch of people with views that are parallel to the kinds of views that motivated Adolf Hitler's supporters in 1930's Germany.

Considering the views posted here on the pages of this shitty little blog over the past decade or so, it's a bit startling to myself to say what I am going to say next, but this is the reality that is facing this country right now and a lot of Americans are sticking their heads in the sand about it.

I simply would advise to anyone reading this post to take seriously Karl Rove's view of how things have changed within the political party that he has been immersed in for the entirety of his adult life, not the bellyaching of an anonymous, loudmouth, dirty fucking liberal hippie schmuck on the internet like yours truly here, The Gadfly.

Karl Rove has finally seen the light about Drumpf and MAGA.  He knows that MAGA is not the 'grass roots,' pro-America political movement it portrays itself to be.

You cannot be pro-America, much less pro-freedom and pro-representative democracy by supporting and enabling a dubiously elected POTUS who violently attempted to overthrow the legitimate results of an American presidential election, who has repeatedly expressed a desire to rule America as it's first dictator, and who as Special Counsel Jack Smith testified UNDER OATH to congress once again this past week, has committed "serious crimes against the United States of America,"  Smith has adamantly stated that with the evidence his investigation had accumulated, he would prosecute Drumpf again for those crimes.

If Karl Rove sees the remnants of Nazism taking root in his beloved political party and is openly saying so in public, then it's probably a wise idea to listen to him.

American Voters Are a Month Away From Sending This Uncaring, Criminal Regime an Eviction Notice

How can any sentient adult not see this for the villainous, self-interested desperation announcement that it is?

 

 

Link:  Post by @atrupar.com — Bluesky

 

Exactly one month before a pivotal US election that every 'reputable' poll indicates will usher in the transfer of power in both the US House of Representatives and the US Senate from the pedophile protecting MAGA Republicans to the Democrats, Drumpf nonchalantly tosses a $100.00 bone to American seniors as some kind of compensation for getting hundreds of thousands of them killed with his negligent handling of the Covid pandemic, and for his looting and pillaging of the nation's social fabric safety net (Medicaid, Medicare, SS, SNAP, etc.) that has imperiled the physical and financial health and welfare of millions of non-millionaire and non-billionaire seniors in this country.

And it's almost cute how the lying old mobster manages to blame the results of his and the Republican party's decades-long assault on those social safety nets for elderly Americans on immigrants and Joe Biden while extolling his measly cash bribe to US seniors, a bribe that wouldn't fill up most people's gas tanks these days because of steadily rising inflation and costs of everything due to Drumpf's ill-advised Iran war.

I call Drumpf's $100 cash offer a 'bone' because that is exactly what it is, a barren piece of inedible (for humans), rock hard bone without a scrap of meat on it, tasteless, nutrition-less, and utterly valueless, something better left as a chew snack for dogs.

You literally cannot make this shit up.

$100 bucks... ... ... and he followed that offer with a double-downing on his lie to distribute $5000 "Trump Dividend" checks to every single adult in the country.

Lol. 

Fuck me.  I am honestly, nearly speechless on this one.

A one-time, $100 fucking check with his klan hood signature and probably an embossed photo of his stupid orange face on it is what the guy who pocketed more than $2 Billion in shady business deals just last year alone when he wormed his way back into office, is what he has offered to American seniors as a favor to forgive and forget, and vote to keep him and his pedo-protecting MAGA party in power next month.

Lol - again. 

That's DonOld's predictable, middle-finger, insulting bribe to American seniors.

There's really not much more to say about this one.  This one stands on it's own in the annals of Drumpf's audacious offensiveness and cruel cynicism.

"I Feel Badly" For Gang Rapists is a MAGA Moral Values Rallying Cry for DonOld Drumpf

Suffice to say that I am not shocked in the tiniest amount that a man who is credibly accused of sexual assault by more than two dozen women, is a serial adulterer, is an adjudicated rapist, and whose best and closest 'friend' of two decades was a notorious international child rapist and child sex trafficker, expresses open empathy for and cares more about some  rapists getting "a fair shake" by the justice system than he does about the 20-year old female university student who was drugged and gang-raped by these frat-boy turds and whose life has been destroyed by them:

 

Link:  Trump: 'I feel badly' for Cornell rape suspects - Raw Story 

 

"President Donald Trump said he feels "badly" for the men under investigation in an alleged gang rape at a Cornell University fraternity.

His comments came a day after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) signed an executive order naming state Attorney General Letitia James (D-NY) special prosecutor in the case, according to the governor's office."  

 

Ahh - ok.  I see two things happening here with the dirty old mobster.

First, he is showing his loyalty to sex offenders like himself with his expression of concern for their legal state of affairs in this case.

Secondly, he sees this case as an opportunity to publicly smear his old legal nemesis in New York, NY state Attorney General Letitia James, who successfully prosecuted Drumpf's 'Trump Organization' company for chronic criminal business fraud, and who DonOld has (so far) unsuccessfully attempted to persecute with one of his lame indictments from his corrupted DOJ.

It continues to astonish me to no end how conservative women in this country can worship (mostly MAGA) and support (GOP women voters) such a vile creature as Drumpf, more so women with young daughters.  

I mean, and not to get off on a tangent, but, exactly what kind of 'moral values' or 'family values' message is being imparted by these women Drumpf voters to their daughters - and more importantly, young sons - with their continued support and enabling of an individual who most of them deep in their hearts know they would not trust to be left alone in a room with one of their underage daughters?

I saw a statistic recently that said a fifth of all females in American society experience sexual abuse in their youth.  And I believe that statistic.

You need look no further for supporting evidence of it than the fact that a guy with a sexual assault rap sheet a mile long, who at 59 years of age was openly boasting about his affinity for "grabbing" women's vaginas, was found by a court of law to be a rapist, and whose name appears in the 'Epstein Files' child rape documents more than anyone else's name except Epstein himself, is the President of the United States and he has surrounded himself with many others whose names also appear prominently in those files.

And Drumpf and his aforementioned corrupt DOJ are still illegally keeping more than three million of those files as well as material evidence from being released to the US Congress and the public as they were mandated to do so by law nearly a year ago.

The picture of who and what Drumpf is has been clearly drawn for some time, imho, and his publicly expressed concern for gang rapists only clarifies the sharpness and definition of that picture.

All it takes is for rational minds, common sense, and open eyes to also clearly see and acknowledge the truth of the picture that has unmistakably emerged about the filthy old gangster.

MAGA Governor Pulls Endorsement From Candidate He Never Should Have Endorsed To Begin With

I am going to share this story for the sole reason that it amply demonstrates just how deeply ingrained the moral rot has become within America's modern-day conservative movement:

 

 

Link:  MAGA governor pulls endorsement after Republican spewed slurs during arrest: report - Raw Story

 

"Texas Gov. Greg Abbott withdrew his endorsement of a Houston-area legislative candidate after dashcam footage surfaced showing the Republican using a racial slur while trying to talk his way out of a drunk driving arrest earlier this year.

According to the Houston Chronicle, David Flores, running to represent Pasadena in the Texas House, was pulled over by Deer Park police for speeding in the early morning hours of February 14 and found to have a blood alcohol content of 0.11 percent. He pleaded guilty to misdemeanor DWI in June and received probation."

Ok, so you you might be thinking to yourself, "what's the big deal?"  Greg Abbott dropped an endorsement of some MAGA chud running for office in his state after the chud was arrested for a DWI.  Sounds like Abbott made the proper, moral decision, right?

That would be a totally wrong assumption to take with one of MAGA's star politicians.  Why is it wrong to assume Greg Abbott made a conscious moral decision to drop his endorsement of this guy?  Well, if we read just a tad further into the article:

 

"It's not the first time Flores has had legal trouble. He racked up five misdemeanor convictions between 2001 and 2004 for offenses including theft, assault and evading arrest, issues he spoke openly about during an earlier run for Pasadena mayor in 2018. He hadn't faced any Harris County charges again until this year's arrest." 

 

Yeah - that's right.  This guy David Flores who Abbott dropped his endorsement of because of a DWI arrest, had a string of criminal offenses in his background BEFORE being arrested for that charge.  Apparently none of those prior criminal offenses by Flores, nor all of them collectively, prevented Abbott from giving this MAGA chud his endorsement to begin with.  I guess the DWI was just one crime too many for Greg Abbott's pristine MAGA moral values to endure.

Sadly these days, the new-age MAGA chuds running for political office all too often turn out to be losers like this Flores cretin, unqualified, undeserving, morally compromised hacks who attempt to use politics to outrun their shady, oft-times criminal pasts.  It's also a prime opportunity for them to stick their snouts in the MAGA/Drumpf grifting pig trough to enrich themselves.

But this is why it's always good to read past the headlines.  Whenever MAGA's corruption and perfidy make the news, always assume the details of the story are much worse than what the headline conveys.

Jim Jordan Absolutely Should Be Fretting His Seditious Ass Off

Drumpf and his MAGA capos are pissing their drawers in abject fear of the Democrats regaining control not only of the House of Representatives, but also the US Senate - as well they should be:

 

Link:  Jim Jordan frets over probes of allies: 'They're going to investigate Cabinet secretaries' - Raw Story

 

"Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) warned Sunday that if Democrats win back the House, they will go after President Donald Trump, his family, his cabinet and even private businesses, The Hill reported.

"They say they're not going to, but we know they will –– they'll do a third impeachment of President Trump," Jordan said on "Cats Roundtable," the WABC 770 AM radio show hosted by John Catsimatidis. "But that's just part of it. They're going to investigate the first family, they're going to investigate cabinet secretaries."

Jordan, who chairs the House Judiciary Committee, singled out its top Democrat, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.). He said Democrats would try to impeach FBI Director Kash Patel, Attorney General Todd Blanche, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth."

  

First of all, nobody gives a shit what a crooked little punk congressman from Ohio with his own sex scandal past thinks may or may not happen if the Democrats regain control of the house and senate.

Jim Jordan was one of those Republican officials who was all in on Drumpf's little January 6th insurrection to such an extent that he was subpoenaed to appear before the US House Select Committee investigating the MAGA terrorist attack on the US Capitol that day.

And what did Jim Jordan do with his lawful subpoena to testify about his knowledge of the events leading up to the violent, deadly attack on our country's capitol on January 6, 2021?  He blew it off.  Never showed up.  He literally thumbed his nose at the bipartisan committee that issued the subpoena.

That is why whenever I hear these phony MAGA chuds like Jordan waxing poetically about respect for the 'rule of law' I just burst out laughing uncontrollably because of how ungodly full of shit they are.

Jim Jordan says he is fearful that Democrats might look into all of the shady crypto and bitcoin deals and military contracting deals that Drumpf and his sons are involved in and raking in hundreds of millions on.  Jim Jordan and his party spent more than five years "investigating" Hunter Biden for an $8000 interest-free personal loan from his father, but hundreds of millions flowing into the Drumpf son's bank accounts don't even get a passing glance from Republicans.

I imagine Gymbo may also be concerned there might be an inquiry into  the recent gift of a rented island wedding reception for DumDum Jr. and his new bride Bettina Anderson, the daughter of Jeffrey Epstein's former banker (mere coincidence I'm sure), that is purported to be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and was paid for by one of Vladimir Putin's stooges.  Yeah - I could see why an investigation into that matter might disturb Jim Jordan.

Or horror of horrors, they might actually look into all of the self-dealing that Jared Kushner (Vanky's man) is doing in his role as Drumpf's defacto Secretary of State (Marco Rubio is just SOS on paper) even though the 'Slim Man' is not a member of government and was not elected to any position in our government.

Jordan also seemed to suggest that that some of Drumpf's cabinet secretaries should be fearful of investigations into their self-enriching and other unethical activities while pocketing a taxpayer-funded salary.

My answer to those fears being expressed by Jordan and his MAGA friends is that, if you haven't committed any crimes, then why are you all so hysterically fearful of having your activities scrutinized by the legal system?

And besides - most of these people should be feeling pretty secure anyway, that regardless of what crimes and other transgressions they have committed while working in DonOld Drumpf's administration, they can count on there being a Drumpf-signed, blanket criminal pardon waiting to save them from being held accountable by the laws of our nation's justice system . . . providing naturally, that they remain loyal to the mob boss and not rat him out.

There's a Reason Mike Johnson Adjourned Congress Until After the Elections - The Impending Impeachment of Pete Hegseth

Out of the whole sordid menagerie of despicable individuals who Drumpf has dragged into his criminal regime and appointed to high positions, there is one person whose eventual downfall, which will occur at some point undoubtedly, will be more entertaining and satisfying to witness than any of Drumpf's other ethically-challenged capos.

 

 

Link:  Pete Hegseth Rails Against 'Sick' Media in Stunning Speech

  

"Pete Hegseth used a chunk of his speech to the troops on Wednesday to go on a blistering verbal assault against the press.

The defense secretary damned the mainstream media for being littered with anti-American “haters” who peddle “fake news” about the military, like recent reports about dwindling munitions due to the Iran war.

Hegseth — while delivering his State of the Force address at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia — said reporters chase negative stories because they are addicted to seeing their headlines plastered across cable news. He also claimed most journalists crave dirt because they loathe President Donald Trump more than they love the country — a blinding hatred he said puts America’s soldiers in danger.

“Our so-called press makes Iranian state media look reasonable,” Hegseth said. “Our media’s shameful lust for political retribution blinds them to the consequences of reckless, so-called reporting. So-called journalists, juiced up on Trump Derangement Syndrome, think fighting against our president, but they’re really undermining you.”

He went on, suggesting mainstream reporters are acting as a not-so-stealth wing of the Democratic Party."

  

Yep - you guessed it.  That person is Pete Hegseth.

It is utterly fucking indefensible, not to mention un-American for the American Secretary of Defense to get up in front of a captive audience of US soldiers who come from diverse walks of American life, religion, race, and even politics, and give an overtly partisan and aggressive attack on the free press while defending Drumpf's lies and demagoguery.

The media has it's problems these days, no argument there - but those problems are principally related to their crooked ownership by MAGA-friendly, Drumpf-fellating billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Elmo MuskRat, Larry and David Ellison, and other unscrupulous, wealthy elites of their sordid right-wing ilk. 

Kegseth is so fucking laughably out of his league as US Secretary of Defense that it literally stopped being funny after his second day on the job, and America is now seeing the proof of that observation with his Iran war dumbassery.  

I've lost count of how many times Kegseth and Drumpf have publicly declared this war that they started against Iran won and the Strait of Hormuz fully open, only to find out they were, and still are, lying their assess off to the American public about nearly everything that is happening in this war.  And if any additional supporting evidence that Pete is fucking up this war is needed, just go ask any American long-haul trucker how they feel about paying for Pete's war right now.

And the fact that Hegseth felt compelled to change the congressionally authorized (lawful) name of his cabinet title to 'Secretary of WAR' in lieu of Secretary of Defense strongly suggests that he is an insecure, immature, manifestly unqualified buffoon, and the whole fucking world knows it.  The ONLY reason Pete Hegseth is in the position he is in today is because DonOld gets a kick out of hiring loudmouth, Fox "news" flunkies for his administration, regardless of their qualifications.

But even more than that, it's because Drumpf is a master at finding compromised individuals who he can pull into his criminal orbit and manipulate to perform his underhanded bidding.

And yes, I confidently call Hegseth 'compromised,' for if you recall, Ol' Pistol Pete has his own 'rape' problem in his past and Lord knows if we have seen any consistency with Drumpf, it's his penchant for bringing sleazy, 'rapey' guys just like himself into government and giving them influential, tax-payer funded jobs, providing of course that they are 100% loyal to the mob boss in the White House and his crooked agenda.

So yeah - when Pete Hegseth's time in the barrel comes, I am right there with my gallon tub of hot buttered popcorn and a Big Gulp! to enjoy the show right up to the final, rolling credits that signify 'THE END' of Ol' Pistol Pete's ignominious career in government and politics.

Republicans Fear Jack Smith Because He Has Evidence of Their Party's Criminal Corruption

The dirty Republicans in the US senate, in their infinitely corrupted wisdom, dragged former Special Prosecutor Jack Smith back into the halls of Congress yesterday in a sad, pathetic, sleazy attempt to smear him, and their effort included a comically failed attempt by one MAGA senator at getting Smith to perjure himself in his sworn testimony to the Senate committee he was appearing in front of:

 

Link:  Eric Schmitt Botches Bid to Corner Jack Smith Over Basketball Game

 

Essentially, this MAGA senator Eric Schmitt from Missouri, a state famous in recent years for electing right-wing assholes of suspect personal character to higher office, tried to claim that Jack Smith attended an NBA basketball game in Atlanta, Georgia sometime in February of 2023 and that it was actually a ruse to meet secretly with Fulton County DA Fani Willis to collude on plans to persecute Trump. Schmitt openly called Jack Smith a 'dirtbag' in the hearing and claimed without a shred of evidence that Smith had 'perjured' himself in prior sworn testimony. 

Sadly, for the ethically-challenged, dipshit MAGA senator from Missouri, his crack staff of investigators had incompetently misread text messages between some of Smith's staff from the date in question, and they just ASSUMED the basketball game Smith had attended was the Atlanta Hawks game in Atlanta.

They were wrong.  Smith did indeed attend a basketball game in February of 2023, however it was a college game between Maryland and the Iowa Hawkeyes which took place in the state of Maryland.  And Smith had impenetrable proof on his side as the US Marshall's service had escorted Smith to that event and before yesterday's kangaroo court hearing had ended, had confirmed it.

In this video snippet from yesterday's senate hearing, we see why Jack Smith scares the living shit ouf of Republicans.  Smith possesses evidence of Drumpf's criminal guilt.  He also possesses evidence that several Republican officials aided Drumpf in his illegal efforts to overturn the results of the filthy old mobster's 2020 election loss to Joe Biden:

 

 

If Democrats retake the White House in 2028, they need to appoint Jack Smith Attorney General so that he can finish the job of prosecuting every fucking traitorous piece of shit who had a hand in instigating the violent attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021 and put them all behind bars where they belong.

Then They Came For the Nurses . . .

Drumpf's DOJ hasn't done a fucking thing to bring the murderers of Renee Good and Alex Pretti to justice, and in fact appear to be helping them evade justice.

What makes that all the more inexcusable is that these fucks appear to have plenty of time to be arresting  hospital nurses who refuse to assist DonOld's I*C*E goons with their ethnic cleansing mandate:

 

Link:  Michigan nurse charged with helping immigrant flee ICE custody | Reuters

 

"WASHINGTON, Sept 29 (Reuters) - A Michigan nurse was charged with helping a Mexican national escape from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody at the hospital ​where she worked, court documents unsealed on Tuesday showed.

Chloe Renae Freeman, 33, ‌of Whitmore Lake, Michigan, was charged in late August with "willfully" helping an unnamed immigrant subject to removal from the United States escape federal custody at Trinity Health Ann Arbor Hospital, ​FBI Special Agent Michael Wagner said in a criminal complaint."

  

After watching Drumpf purge good, honest Americans from the DOJ (just as Hegseth is doing to the military) and turn the agency into his own criminal defense law firm and vehicle to harass those who oppose him, and after seeing how he has directed his hired stooge Toad Blanche to corrupt that agency even further in his role as Attorney General by using it to persecute Drumpf's perceived political enemies, it stands to reason that going after regular US citizens who refuse to participate in DHS's crimes against humanity is going to be the new Trumpian standard going forward.

Because that is just the way things work under fascist, authoritarian governments. 

The only question that remains is the question of how many Americans these fascist bastards who have been installed at the DOJ are willing to persecute and imprison at the behest of their convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and suspected child rapist boss?  

Something tells me that Americans are going to get an answer to that question in the wake of the midterm elections should the Democrats as all reputable polling indicates take back control of both the House and Senate.

MAGA Will Never Blame Themselves or Drumpf for Their Economic Ruin - Moral Cowardice is a Powerful Drug

Lol.  These dumb MAGA potato heads.  They themselves, more than anything or anyone, are the reason this country and people can't have nice things:

 

 Link:  Furious Trump Voter Regrets Decision After Painful Crisis

"A furious Trump voter has delivered a blistering verdict on the president, saying soaring gas and food prices have left her regretting the decision to vote for him.

Energy prices have shot up since Trump, who made lowering costs and not starting any new wars two central 2024 campaign vows, began his deeply unpopular war with Iran in February.

AAA figures show the average price of fuel at $4.45 a gallon, while diesel stands at $6.44.

Food prices have also risen, with the price of ground beef up 7.2 percent over the past 12 months, while seafood, sugar, and coffee are all up around 6 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

And Americans—including Trump voters—are not happy about it.

“I’m pissed off about gas and food prices. It’s affected everything,” one Trump voter in Iowa told MS NOW on Monday, adding that Americans should “feel sorry for the truck drivers that are trying to make a living."   

 

And let's stop right there.

For the most part, I do feel some sympathy for and empathy with truck drivers who are being financially decimated by Drumpf's Iran-war economy.  The financial impact to those people is clearly measurable.

Having said that however - I don't feel one single ounce of sympathy or empathy for any truck driver who voted for Donald Trump in 2024 KNOWING FULL WELL who he is, what he has done, and what he was planning to do.  

Those truckers voted to kill their own careers.  That is all on them.  Their financial ruin will be a good life learning lesson on why it is never wise to put your trust in liars, fraudsters, grifters, felons, and suspected pedophiles.
