This is What True Weaponization of Government Looks Like

Remember how the MAGA Congress critters and Drumpf spent the better part of the last 5 years screeching like banshees about "political weaponization" of the federal government, all because there was a half-assed attempt by authorities to hold Putin's hired mobster accountable for his crimes and his violent coup attempt to overthrow our government?

Remember that?

Then what in the fuck is this called??

He is going to instruct the corrupt lackeys he installed at the IRS to go after ANYONE, public or private sector, who opposes him and displeases him.  It is classic banana republic, dictator behavior.  Harvard is just the tip of the massive iceberg yet to come.

Essentially, now that DonOld has given free reign to Elmo's DOGE spooks to run rampant through the machinery of the government and get their slimy tentacles on the coding of all these agencies, it can be assured that nothing good is going to come of this - for any of us.

"Man of the People" Shits on Those People

Hey Ma and Pa MAGA!  You guys will never guess who is siding WITH the big pharmaceutical corporations and AGAINST your best interests as a consumer?

If you guessed an orange-haired, casino bankrupting, pussy-grabbing, convicted felon shitgibbon, give yourself a smiley sticker and a pat on your back. 😊

Drumpf's Assault on the Judiciary Begins

We have now officially arrived at the blatantly ignoring a lawful court order and the judge in turn ordering an official inquiry stage of Donald Trump's criminal regime.

It's all downhill from here folks.

Generalissimo Drumpf's Torture Prison Presidency

No doubt there are a lot of bad things this democracy-hating piece of orange shit would "love to do" to US citizens.

Someone needs to sit Donold down and show him some newsreel footage of what happened to Italy's fascist dictator Benito Mussolini when he went too far against his own people.

'Make Torture Prisons In El Salvador Great Again!' . . . Wtf??

Gee, ya think?  Let's hope this "backfiring" means more and more Americans are beginning to pay attention to Drumpf's authoritarian power grab.

Drumpf, in his capacity as the President of the United States of America, wanting to team up with a Central America banana republic to build an offshore gulag site to incarcerate anyone that he and his corrupt henchmen see fit to send there, including native born, "homegrown" Americans, should be a massive wake-up call to anyone that truly loves this country and truly values our democracy and freedoms.

And yes, I am fully aware that Drumpf's toadies are publicly saying that they would only do this for violent criminals, but Drumpf has publicly stated on multiple occasions his desire to lock up his political opponents and members of the media.  He is a prolific liar, his toadies are prolific liars, and not a goddamn word that comes out of their professional liar pieholes is to be trusted.

Drumpf told everyone in the runup to the 2024 election that he wanted to rule the United States of America like a dictator.  He was not joking about that.  The moves he is making to purge the government of ANYONE not swearing personal loyalty to him says he was not joking.  Gutting the military of competent and experienced leaders and putting our combined fighting forces under the "leadership" of a chronic drunk, D-grade Fox "news personality who was accused of rape and has ties to white nationalists was not joking.  And installing pre-approved, yes-men toadies in his cabinet, DOJ, and White House who would eagerly do his unconstitutional, and I would surmise even criminal bidding, is not joking.

"But it also is having a reverse effect. It's stopping illegal immigrants in America that are ready to go home, that don't want to stay in the United States, that get the message and are ready to leave."

Undocumented migrants won't be as willing to turn themselves in to law enforcement if they're afraid of getting swept into a torture prison in another country, Scarborough said.

"It's got them afraid to go home, it's got them afraid to go to an ICE office, it's got them afraid to go to their local sheriff or their local police officer and say, 'Hey, I'm not here legally, I want to go home – how do I do it?' Well, the Trump administration has the responsibility, if they want that to happen, they're going to have to show that there is a pathway for people that are here illegally to go home and not end up in a prison in El Salvador," Scarborough said."

Is it really all that surprising though that a majority of Americans don't think very highly of the sight of seeing their country, the land of the free the home of the brave, being sullied by a casino bankrupting, pussy-grabbing, coup-plotting, thieving, convicted felon and fascist dictator wannabe who is promising to disappear American citizens into a third-world, banana republic prison torture system?

No, it is not.  Nor should it be.

Drumpf and his MAGA henchmen had better understand that they are playing with fire here.  So far, it does not appear that they acknowledge, much less comprehend the reality that there are more freedom lovers than right-wingers with Nazi fetishes in this country, and if they want to wake a sleeping giant, go ahead and fuck around, find out what happens when you try to force a free people under the thumb of repressive fascism.

America is Increasingly Being Isolated by a Compromised Usurper

I wonder if this is this part of that "making America great again" slogan Drumpf and his MAGA groupies are incessantly mouthing?

Link: EU Staff Is Now Using Burner Phones to Evade Trump | The New Republic

"The European Commission is issuing burner phones to officials traveling to the United States amid fears of espionage in Trump’s America.

It’s the kind of security measure typically saved for trips to China or the Ukraine, where the fear of IT surveillance is high. But three European Commissioners will test out burner phones and basic laptops at International Monetary Fund and World Bank meetings in Washington next week, sources told the Financial Times.

The move from the European Commission, the primary executive arm of the European Union, marks a new era of American-European relations, which have all but dissipated since Donald Trump took office in January. Last month, he slapped Europe with 20 percent tariffs, which he later reduced to 10 percent for 90 days. He has falsely claimed the EU was formed solely to “create a unified force against” the United States, he abandoned Ukraine in the face of Russia, and he threatened to withdraw American security guarantees to the continent altogether—single-handedly dismantling an alliance that has shaped the global order since Word War II, and simultaneously embracing Vladimir Putin’s alliance.

“The transatlantic alliance is over,” an EU official told the Financial Times."

"The transatlantic alliance is over."

Well isn't that just swell.  The nations who the United States helped AND who helped the United States defeat the world tyranny posed by Hitler's Nazis and their axis alliance in 1945 are telling us the 80+ year democracy friendship is over.

Our soon to be former allied countries are essentially telling any Americans who are open-minded enough to listen that they have zero trust in the individual currently in charge of the government of the United States of America.

Anyone believing that this is a good thing is more than just a little fucked in their head and needs to seriously wise up.

America is in Unchartered Constitutional Crisis Waters

Nothing of interest to see here folks, just the current President of the United States of America - and supposed leader of the FREE WORLD - having a cavalier discussion with the strongman leader of a third-world banana republic about the prospect of extraordinarily renditioning American citizens to the strongman's third-world, banana republic country for out of sight, out of mind, mass incarceration and for the banana republic strongman's gulag prisons to do with these US citizens as they please.

If that term "extraordinary rendition" isn't familiar to some folks, here's a simple way of describing it.  The individual currently squatting in the American people's White House is insinuating he has the RIGHT to send masked, armed henchmen to snatch you out of your bed at night, accuse you of heinous crimes against the state, and with NO DUE PROCESS (the right to defend yourself in a court of United States law) put you on a flight, shackled hand to feet, and ship you off to a third-world banana republic country to be locked up in one of their gulag prisons, very unlikely ever to be seen or heard from again.

If that's not clear enough for some folks, then I don't know what the fuck to say to you all.

The 'Deep State' of Impairment in Bobby Kennedy Jr.'s Worm-eaten Brain

Link: RFK Jr. Warns FDA Staff of ‘Deep State’ in All-Hands Meeting - Bloomberg

There is a reason why practically every one of RFK Jr.'s family members have publicly rebuked him and and refused to approve of his quack medical views and his association with Drumpf and his administration, and why they also refused to back his presidential ambitions.

It's because the guy is a fucking authentic, cuckoo-for-cocoa puffs wacko and he shouldn't be within a million miles of the responsibility for safeguarding the public health of 330 million people.

But this is what Ma and Pa MAGA voted for.  They voted for this former heroin addict crackpot with worm eaten brains to be in charge of public health.

And since we are on the subject, they also voted for a drunken Fox "news" flunkie and accused rapist to be the US Secretary of Defense.  

They voted for a lady whose claim to fame was being a professional wrestler married to Drumpf buddy and WWE honcho Vince McMahon as the Secretary of Education, which she is now helping Drumpf to eliminate.  

They voted for a woman who has a teen-girl crush on Vladimir Putin to be Director of National Intelligence - looking at you Tulsi girl!

They voted for a confessed puppy murderer and woman who is banned from setting foot on the Native American lands in her own state as Director of Homeland Security.  Really Kristi?  A puppy?  With a bullet to the head?  Yikes girl.

They voted for a cross-eyed, online huckster and grifter to be the Director of the FBI.  Seriously, tell me a guy with this face ain't a bit squirrely in the head.

They voted for sycophantic Drumpf supporter who has never met a Donald Trump crime that she couldn't cover up as the US Attorney General.

They voted for a bible verse spouting, unctuous Cuban-American political weasel and known coward to be US Secretary of State.

And of course they voted for a carpetbagging, South African immigrant billionaire and world's wealthiest human and his pre-pubescent minions to rip the American government apart and hurt as many American citizens as they possibly can with their zeal to hoard ever more wealth, influence, and power for themselves.

Ma and Pa MAGA voted for every bit of this when they cast their ballot on November 5th 2024 for Donald Trump, an individual who has publicly bragged about sexually assaulting women, been found by a US court to be a rapist, has been convicted by a jury of American citizens of 34 felonies, stole US intelligence documents, and concocted a vile lie about election fraud denying him a second term which led to his orchestrating a violent, deadly attack to overthrow the US government on January 6, 2021.

So yeah, the dangerous nuttiness of Bobby Kennedy Jr. thinking the "deep state" is out to get him is just par for the course for this administration of scofflaws, circus freaks, Putin assets, and shady grifters.

Drumpf, the Billionaires, and MAGA are Canceling Science

Something else that Americans will need to accustom themselves to - dirtier and unhealthier air and water, more toxic lands, the ravaging and selloff of the nation's natural resources to Republican billionaire friends, and of course, absolutely zero action on the effects and costs of unchecked climate change.

“There’s really no coming back from this, and it means we are all less informed about climate impacts, and won’t have the most up-to-date information on risks and threats,” said one federal staffer who was engaged in USGCRP activities, and who requested anonymity to avoid retribution. “USGCRP helped me to leverage resources from other agencies for use in my own work. But without these networks, I’m left without a support system and the latest science on climate change.”

These anti-science goons will be the end of us all.

Social Security Recipients in AZ Get the Elmo Treatment

Elmo's ratfucking of the Social Security Administration is kicking off the ripple effect of sabotaging the US Social Security system, an effect that will eventually sweep across the country.
