MAGA is planning War Crimes and Ethnic Cleansing but, don't panic before it happens

"Don't wait for it to happen. Don't even want it to happen. Just watch what does happen." - Sean Connery, The Untouchables (1987)

    Look.  Stop freaking out over everything DonOld Trump says he's going to do.  They time to do something about Trump’s vile verbal diarrhea was on November 5th.  That fucking time is past.  

Democrats told you what to expect and Voters told Democrats to fuck off.  We warned you about these plans and white people in every battleground state said This!  This is what we want!

And fuck off with blaming President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, or even Barack Obama;  they spent the last year plus warning you what Trump wanted and what Trump said he was going to do and Americans voted for it.  Vice President Harris made the right move in conceding.  President Biden did the proper thing meeting with Traitor Trump and talking of a helpful peaceful transition.  What would you like?  Biden closing the White House to him or some other performative denial of Trump's legitimacy?  Trump won.

Don't even start with any denial of Trump's victory.  Sure it's not overwhelming or a mandate but, it's a win and a decisive one.  Look how Republicans still even today claim Democrats refuse to conceded losses, they cite HRC in 2016 and Stacey Abrams in Georgia in 2018 to prove election denialism is a BothSides situation and Democrats are hypocrites.  

Being a party dedicated to truth and justice and rules and institutions means We can not be part of the group that helps to undermine those rules and institutions.  However...

Don't be the loyal opposition.  Don't extend them the courtesies of comity.  Don't give them symbolic victories.  Don't reach across the aisle in bipartisanship.  Don't help them keep the trains running on time. Make them own every single vote and bill and all the fallout.  And definitely don't let them claim BothSides Do It!  

Republicans can claim without evidence the Election was Rigged!  I won!  And I won by a lot!  Even after losing case after case.  We can not.  What we can do right now is gather your strength, identify what you can do and be ready to do it when or if the time comes. 

So, Stephen Miller's plan to recruit and deploy "Red-State" Armies in recalcitrant Blue State cities to facilitate the rounding-up of migrants is actually designed to trigger you in many ways.  First, it gets you emotionally upset but, more importantly he and the Trump cabal are hoping We overreact and begin "resisting" before they come in thus giving them the Casus Belli to in fact come in.

Don't misunderstand.  This is not a call to conform, collaborate, or submit.  We, the People have to Fight.  But, we have the fight intelligently.  

Right now be prepared to document, because Trump and his hive of scum and villainy are not going to want their crimes reported on and the pliant Corporate Media sure doesn't want to report on or broadcast Trump and MAGA's crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing.  The Corporate Media is just here to chuckle and dutifully stenograph the Trump Show, and that funny collection of scamps in his Cabinet of Grotesqueries.

But, they have to move first.  They have to break Posse Commitaus, they have to be shown doing unlawful midnight raids and violations of Due Process, and warrantless arrests first, then we can raise objections and declare Trump's actions unconstitutional.

This won't work to stop him.  Faux News will justify each and every step, every violation, every crime along the way.  False equivalence, whataboutism, and Obama/Biden did worse will be used.  Additionally, exactly zero Republicans will break with Trump no matter what he and his cabal do.

But, I will reiterate Tom Homan's declaration he's going to kick out all Hispanics even those here "legally" isn't actually the plan;  the plan is three-fold.  First, Democratic Governors are already signaling their intent to be nodes of resistance.  This is the moral, humane, and legal way to resist but, First it's entirely what  MAGA wants because Stephen Miller is going to spend his entire new career as special assistant to Trump going on Faux News decrying Big Liberal cities and Democratic states as dens of rapist and murdering illegals.  And, by gosh, if only those Democrats hadn't coddled those rapist illegals raping and killing your white women Trump would have made America great.  Second, they are going to conduct limited operations, far from urban centers and with limited scope and claim those expelled are the worst of the worst (no matter who they are). Third, and this is perhaps the most dire and most speculative I think MAGA wants there to be unrest/protests which they can use to unleash Police Departments and Sheriffs and more importantly roving gangs of Rightwing Paramilitary Terrorists.

Standing by since Sept 2020
Waiting for Trump’s orders

I think they lamented not cracking down even more forcefully during the 2020 George Floyd riots (although you will note every Republican and conservative on social media claims Black Live Matter and Antifa did trillions in damage, murdered dozens of Police Officers, and not a single protestor was arrested.  This is of course despite the fact municipal Police (especially in places like Philadelphia) were responsible for most of the violence and there was no such thing as organized Antifa riots, even according to William Barr's Department of Justice and the FBI itself.

So, get yourself ready because this probably is going to be very bad.  But, don't jump the gun.  Don't give them the slenderest reed to lay the entire blame on Us.  And when things get as bad as we think they might, you'll know what to do.

The Trump Show presents: The Cabinet of Grotesqueries

I've come to see ya, tell ya the deals off... You sloughed up on your end of things, I didn't end up with what I wanted! I didn't end up with nothing!

You got what you were supposed to get Bluesman! Ain't nothing ever as good as we want it to be! But, that ain't no reason to break a deal... - MAGA made a deal at the Crossroads (1986)

 The Corporate Media got exactly what it wanted, and now, it's going to make sure the American people get it, good and hard, as H. L. Mencken would say.

You shouldn't be surprised that 10 days after the 2024 election, Trump and Republicans are already claiming credit for the economy and believes his administration should have all credit dating back to November 5th.  This is, nothing new, for Traitor Trump because he's been claiming credit for all manner of things, for a decade now, for which he didn't do and sometimes things he tried to undo.

What you've got to understand is Republicans are not interested in truth or objective reality, their entire philosophical outlook is Subjectivity.  Republicans have been trending this way for decades every since Ronnie Raygun uttered the infamous line about facts being stupid things.  But, under their Beloved Leader DonOld, reality itself is wholly subjective and malleable to the whims of the Beloved Leader.

And Republicans and their Corporate Media allies are going to spend the next 4 years making sure Reality is subject to Trump's whim.  It's quite something to see the End of the United States and it's starting with this collection of lunatics and losers whom Trump is going to surround himself in his cabinet.

The Corporate Media is quite clear they will sane-wash and make even the most repugnant piece of garbage Republican palatable to the American public. No... Matter... What...

Dog killing Kristi Noem to head Homeland Security.

Tulsi Gabbard, a Russian asset as the Director of National Intelligence.

A steroid abusing, animal mutilating anti-vaxx, anti-science failson as the Health and Human Services

A drunk-driving, child raping traitor as Attorney General, who bragged while on the floor of the Peoples' House of taking Viagra and Red Bull in order to fuck teenagers.

A pair of Nazis Stephen Miller and Tom Homan, are planning on concentrating migrants, the homeless, mental ill people into Camps, in order to process them more efficiently.

And speaking of Efficient Fascists there's a separate pair in charge of making Government Efficient... 

You want this, don't you...

Balloon Juice has a deeper drive into the details about each of these psychopaths Trump has ordered be installed into his Cabinet, each worse than the last.  And let's be clear no Republicans Senator is going to vote against these "nominations".  In fact, Breathy baby voice Katie Britt has proposed that Lara Trump, best known for making crappy covers of songs without the artists permission, to replace Marco Rubio as Senator in Florida.

And Trump knows to throw a flurry of blows to keep the Corporate Media off balance and chuckling at the latest Trump shenanigans instead of pointing out repeatedly day-after-day how despicable each one of these people are, it's just stenography of the Trump Show.  While for MAGA, it's all about Owning the Libs and absolute loyalty to DonOld.

A man cited by his fellow Officer and Superiors as a verifiable risk to National Security as the  Secretary of Defense.  Oh and by the way, while you might know Matt Gaetz was being investigated for trafficking a 17 year old across state lines and plying her with booze and drugs before paying her offvia Venmo, you probably were unaware that Pete Hegseth settled a sexual assault charge by paying off his accuser.

Wow!  Repoting on these people before the Election would certainly have seemed to be in the Publics interest!  But, nah the Corporate Media was too busy complaining Kamala Harris wasn't doing interviews with them and her hundreds of pages of policy initiatives weren't providing enough detail and oh did you hear the latest racist sexist garbage Trump said about you Madame Vice President?!?  Plus, the Corporate Media had to spend the end of the run-up to the election castigating President Joe Biden for daring to call this collection of criminals and lunatics "garbage" proving once again that the Worst Offense in America is to correctly call Republicans what they are...

There’s no reason to complicate this Trumps band of loons and liars were picked solely for their dogmatic loyalty and his absolute certainty they will do what he wants, everything else they do is just the fallout for the American people will have to suffer.  Vivek Ramaswarmy has already declared his intent to call for cuts to Veteran's Healthcare and Social Security Disability Insurance, as well as several other Federal Government programs.  Just think those savings can be neatly deposited via Bitcoin to Trump and Elon Musk's wallet.

But, don't expect any of the upcoming crimes against humanity or destruction of natural resources or end of federal government services to change the MAGA minds; they've given themselves body and soul to their creature they've declared is an amalgam of George Washington and Jesus Christ.

There’s no “Buyer’s Remorse” for Trump voters

 Stop.  Just stop. Hope is good but, false hope is a killer.  There are several news threads claiming Trump lovers are now having second thoughts and wondering if the MAGA Project 2025 will hurt them instead of just hurting all the "Bad people".

The joy of being a conservative is living in the now.  When, or if, any of the Trump garbage start to suffer in a year or two they will simply not ascribe it to Trump or the Republicans.  Faux News and ceaseless rightwing propaganda will ensure the blame goes to the Demmycrats!  The Fvcking New York Times and Washington Post will dutifully echo statements of blame from Republicans on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, while the erstwhile Left will chime in with Genocide Joe or whatever bullshit du jour places them squarely on the side of Fascists.  Zero blame will go to Trump and Zero blame will go to the Republicans who are valiantly trying to clean up Democrat Messes!!!

I'm still not going to snidely declare GOOD at the misery Trump and his assembled Cabinet of Grotesqueries will inflict but, I'm not going to undertake the Herculean effort of trying to save Republicans from the consequence of their MAGA actions. 

I hope Democrats also focus their worry on saving and protecting their own as opposed to undertaking the thankless task of helping all Americans when Republicans turn around and shiv them and the American people.

The next few years are going to be Republicans, yet again, taking credit for things they did not do, passing blame for all the things they are doing, and declaring everything under Traitor Trump the Greatest It Ever Was...

So, unplug from the day-to-day indignities and outrages;  pet a dog, rake some leaves, eat a pie, lift some weights.  The white trash of America have decided to cosign us to the flames of Fascism; Gather your strength while you can, now, and prepare to expend it when the true atrocities and crimes begin.  Be Brave if you can but, be prepared.

Shall Not Be Infringed 14: Illinois Semi-Automatic Ban overturned because Indiana Jones shot a guy with a revolver

    You can take those faded Highland Park Strong stickers off your home and car now, because a scant 2 years after Trump loving QANON Super Fan Bobby Crimo killed 7 people and wounded 50 more, using an AR-15 bought for him by his MAGA father, in order to stick it to those Gun Grabber Libs, a MAGA Judge nominated by Donald Trump in 2020 decided Guns are Above The Law, as the 2016 election continues to reverberate in murderous ways...

U.S. District Judge Stephen P. McGlynn, of the Southern District of Illinois, issued a permanent injunction he said applies universally, not just to the lawsuit’s plaintiffs. He decided, however, that the injunction would not take effect for 30 days. 

Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul responded speedily, filing a notice of appeal Friday evening. 

The Protect Illinois Communities Act, signed into law in January 2023 by Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker, took effect Jan. 1. It bans AR-15 rifles and similar guns, large-capacity magazines and an assortment of attachments

The opinion drew heavily from recent landmark Supreme Court rulings expanding on the definition of the Second Amendment’s guarantees.

Erich Pratt, senior vice president of the Gun Owners of America, which represented one of the plaintiffs in the case, said of Pritzker and Illinois lawmakers, “We warned them to fall in line, but they chose to do the opposite."

David & Goliath and Raiders of the Lost Ark render this law
UNCONSTITUTIONAL

SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!!!  It would seem sophistry and bad faith sentence diagraming of the 250 year 2nd Amendment will be America's epitaph.  Once again the disingenuous reading of the Second Amendment by the Sinister Six on the Supremacist Court means no gun regulations! LOL!  Can we finally put away the notion that 90% of Americans support stronger background checks and tougher gun regulations?  Please?  Because, clearly, Americans do not support this as evidenced by the fact Americans voted overwhelmingly to send back pro gun lobby Senators Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz and put a Tim Sheehy, who shot himself in the arm lied about outrageously, into the Senate?

And can Progressives finally admit their core assumption that Americans will overwhelmingly support Democrats if they pass legislation that helps the working class is the key to election victory, since Joe Biden did this throughout his tenure and voters punished hm and us, not only in the Presidential election but, in numerous House and Senate races?

The American voting body does not vote for Politicians who support their claimed policy preferences.  And young men and women of the so-called Fight For Our Lives Parkland Generation made a dramatic swing towards Trump in this election.

The Gun Owners of America and other proponents of Unrestricted Gun Violence everywhere are more than willing to sacrifice a Chicago Police Officer, or 7 people in Highland Park, because they've successfully conditioned their followers to Myth of the Good Guy.  They "warned us to fall in line" and since we didn't Judge McGlynn used the unassailable Indiana Jones shot a Guy with a sword thus proving Americans have the right to whatever weaponry they desire. 

Always remember Guns don't kill people, Republicans with guns and Republican politicians kill people. 

Warnings & Resistance

"President Trump won a landslide victory Tuesday because Americans embrace his common sense policy to implement mass deportation for illegal migrants,” Brian Hughes, Senior Trump Advisor. 

If no one knows there are concentration camps
Did the mass deportation actually happen?

I and thousands of others warned you what he and the Project 2025 cabal will do if elected and in response white men went Great!!! Concentration camps go Brrrrrr!

I’m have some theories about this Mass Deportation propaganda I'll write here but, after this I'm not really going to do predicting and warning about Trump and MAGA's domestic terror campaign anymore but just react to the Cabinet of Grotesqueries as they happen.

I will never be so cynical or so hard-hearted to wish or laugh at the misfortunate of others or say oh well you voted for this even for hard-core MAGAts.  But, it will of course happen.

The key for Trump and his criminal cabal will be to ensure the images and new stories of their atrocities don't get out or don't get reported and any that do are "debunked" or dismissed or excused by Joe Rogan, Faux News, Elon Musk's Nazi X Army, and all the lesser rightwing liars.  Or Republicans will simply claim Obama and Biden did the exact same thing and our 4th Estate will nod Sagely, and say, truly this is the day Donald Trump became President...

Never forget, for much of the Right the abject cruelty is the point as illustrated by Jesse Waters, "And then deportation. They are going to lose, the states, on this because that is a federal issue, and there will be massive clashes because you're going to have cameras out there making sure that they capture the images of I.C.E. coming along and taking these people away. They deserve to be taken away. Sometimes you have to do tough stuff, but AOC is going to be there tying herself to migrants. It's going to be hysterical."

Constitution says whatever I want it to say

While the bullies, trolls, and Republicans are all touting their inhuman Mass Deportation policies in the most cruelest, hateful, and hurtful ways, the For-Profit Prison Complex is ramping up it's construction of Concentration Camps and associated infrastructure and investors see a potential gold mine,

Now investors are betting heavily their earnings are set to soar, bidding up shares on Wednesday in the aftermath of Trump’s election. Stock in CoreCivic surged 29% while Geo Group saw an even bigger gain, vaulting 42% in a single session. 

Investors betting on a boom in ICE-related profits have good reason. During the Trump administration, the federal government expanded its immigration detention system by over 50%, a move that “overwhelmingly benefitted private prison companies”, according to findings from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). The number of migrants detained reached a peak of 55,000 in 2019.

Following Trump’s election on Tuesday, the new president-elect now has to deliver on a promise to launch the “largest deportation in the history of our country.” Vice President-elect JD Vance suggested his boss should start with 1 million undocumented migrants “and then we can go from there”. 

While Trump and Vance continue their straight Nazi Rhetoric of deporting up to 20,000,000 people, it's important to know MAGA and Republicans were absolutely banking on Democratic Governors and States resisting their efforts.   And voila, Democratic Governors have already fulfilled their part of the bargain by beginning to maneuver to fight against Trump's draconian mass deportation policy.

A cadre of blue-state governors is already preparing a litany of political and legal moves to shield their states’ policies and residents from federal actions under Donald Trump's new administration.

Gov. JB Pritzker on Thursday sought to assure Illinois residents that he would fight to preserve the state’s protections on fronts including reproductive health, immigration and LGBTQ+ rights during Donald Trump’s second term in the White House.

“To anyone who intends to come take away the freedom, and opportunity, and dignity of Illinoisans, I would remind you that a happy warrior is still a warrior. You come for my people, you come through me,” Pritzker said Thursday at a news conference in Chicago, where he made his first public appearance since the election.

Let me be absolutely clear, what J.B. Prtizker said and the plans for resistance he and other Governors are saying they will do is 100% the right, moral, ethical and at this point still legal thing to do.  You resist Fascism and Fascist decrees with all your power (however small it may be).  

Don't Obey in Advance because one of the Fascists greatest weapons is getting you to surrender without a fight.  Now, of course Reactionaries don't simply take no for an answer, Stephen Miller and whomever else is going to be spearheading this Final Migrant Solution, is going to use Faux News and Musk's Swastika Platform to decry, denounce, attack, and incite violence against Democratic opponents;  while also claiming the Evil DemocRATS are stopping them from making America great again.  (Recall the enemies of Fascism are both all-powerful and weak wimpy soy boys at the same time.)

Won't someone rid me of these Troublesome Democrats? 

I don't know how detailed or how much actual planning, Trump, Vance and his team of villains are engaged in; the logistics of deploying thousands of ICE and U.S. military personnel to work in conjunction with State, County, and Local Law Enforcement to round-up millions of people isn't something you dash off in a demented Weave, but requires a level of strategic thinking and planning.  Which is why I think Trump, like all Fascists will give a very strong order like, Migrants Out! Kick ASS and leave any actual details to others to figure out. 

Any actual deportations will most likely occur in southern border states and be well out of sight of Americans and go mostly unreported by Trump's compliant Corporate Media and be minuscule in actual number, but Trump will say he's kicked out millions of murders and rapists and any that remain are because of Gavin NewScum or J.B. Prtizker and then threaten to with hold federal assistance or social security payments to retirees and tell Americans to remove those Democratic Governors.

A Dictatorship if you can keep it…

𝔗𝔥𝔢 𝔗𝔯𝔦𝔲𝔪𝔭𝔥 𝔬𝔣 𝔇𝔢𝔯 𝔗𝔯𝔲𝔪𝔭

Dictator on Day One…  A very aggressive first 100 days… Deportations en masse 

Just as 18th century political theory crumbled in the face of 20th century Authoritarianism, 20th century institutions, customs and guardrails to protect Democracy are crumbling in the face of 21st century bad faith and Billionaire disinformation.  Here in the United States, the Republicans even well before Trump seized upon this to undercut and weaken faith in Government and thus turned every American from a piece in the America melting pot member (and upholder of the Social Contract) into a highly atomized individual with no faith or reliance in any Institutions.  Trump's Election heralds the end of the Liberal Democracy in the United States.

50 years ago, Nixon was forced to resign as President, and ever since Republicans determined they would always put Party first, above Patriotism, above Country, above The Law, Party above All.  Since then Republicans have worked to undermine faith in Government, faith in science, faith in expertise, and faith in the Institutions of the 20th century Liberal Democratic Republic.  In the last 25 years, the youth in America have witnessed failure after failure; the Electoral College in 2000 (and 2016), Mass School Shootings starting with Columbine and regularly continuing, the Republican Recession of 2007-2008 from the housing bubble, the pitiful Cash for Clunkers for regular Americans whilst Bankers got Billions, 9/11 and then the non-stop rightwing lies about Afghanistan and Iraq, the response to Covid and millions of dollars of PPE loans for free while meager student loan debt relief is stymied over and over.  Nothing but, institutional failure and a seeming inability to help the average American.  And Republicans knew that destroying Government wouldn't be blamed on them, the destroyers, but upon those who believe in the Government.

And as the fruits of this poisonous cultivation hung low, in walked Donald Trump to pluck them.  Now, he (and my use of he means his cadre of criminal co-conspirators) will use the 50 years of undermining the United States professional bureaucracy and institutional guardrails to utterly destroy them and remake the country into a Fascist Fundamentalist hellhole of white supremacy and rape culture.  Enjoy this inexpensive eggs and cheap gas, they were purchased with the soul of America.

Look at these emerging stories just 3 days after the Election: 

Remember when Michelle Obama suggested 
Americans should exercise and eat healthier and
Republicans called her man and drank Big Gulps?

• Major Traitor Greene jubilantly declared her plans to dismantle the administrative state and free everyone of the convicted January 6th Insurrectionists.
• RFK Jr  proclaims he’ll destroy the FDA, end Fluoridation of Water because the FDA is against Exercise and Sunshine
• Speaker Johnson declares they will end Obamacare in his aggressive first 100 days  
• The Department of Education is going to be eliminated so that education can be privatized and taxpayer money can be funneled into religious schools (Christian fascism only) and Billionaires bank accounts
• The Lawless Supremacist Court will simply issue ruling after ruling undoing major legislation passed in the 20th century (the 2024 Chevron decision ended Federal protection of waterways!)
• Trump and Speaker Johnson are also going to undo the major excellent legislation passed by Joe Biden, the Chips Act, and probably work with the Senate Republicans and Sinister Six Supremes to undo Student Loan forgiveness.
• And if it wasn't obvious Trump's supporters see themselves or wish to be mini-Trump's, bullying and trolling every Lib, the terminally on-line rightwing MAGA perverts who've been screaming "Your Body. My Choice!", are also declaring Har Har Project2025 was the plan all along LOL. 

Every institution is crumbling or already a pile of rubble from these attacks of MAGA, the Modern Fascist Republicans, and rapacious Billionaires. The economy is geared towards those already financially secure and obviously the obscenely wealthy.  And Government Institutions can't respond or are unable to respond.  So, it's unsurprising that the generations born and raised to witness failure after failure after failure hear Trump say I can fix it and decide okay go for it.

So, a Dictatorship is coming...

When we vote, we win! We didn’t vote…

On September 7th, in Wisconsin Trump discussed the possibility of Harris winning the presidency, and went on to say, "It's not her, it's the people that surround her. They're scum. They are scum, and they want to take down our country. They are absolute garbage." -

At this point, Trump is poised to win every so-called battleground state and we are waiting for the last of the ballots to be counted.  Kamala Harris has about 69 million and Trump is sitting at 73.5 million.  Traitor Trump appears to be on pace to receive the same number of votes as he did in 2020, while Harris will end up with 8 million less votes than she and President Biden in 2020.

I don’t understand what happened (yes I do understand that everyone has a theory of what happened but, these are so much crap or at best a partial explanation, since you didn't posit your theory before Election Day).  The DNC in Chicago was success and very energizing.  The early voting and mail-in ballot numbers were encouraging.  Harris drew multiple big-name celebrity endorsements.Her camping raised a billion dollars.  She and Walz toured every battleground state multiple times.  Get Out the Vote efforts were aggressive and supposedly reached millions of voters.

Yet...  I don’t understand why 6-8 million voters didn’t show up for her?  Were these just anti-Trump Republicans who voted in 2020 but decided to sit out this year?  Are these sexist Democratic men who weren’t going to vote for a woman?  The Abandon Harris left got half a million votes and hardly seems to have made an impact in the battleground states.

Worse and more perplexing still, in several states in which Trump won, liberal ballot initiatives passed or in the case of Florida received well over 50% of the vote but failed to meet the threshold for adoption.  And in battleground states Wisconsin and Michigan, Trump won and a Democratic female Senate candidate won.

I got mine. Fuck You! Or 
Tengo el mio. Chinga Te!!!

The three sad and upsetting voting trends are:

• Latino men voted to pull up the ladder for incoming Hispanic immigrants 
• White women entered the voting booth Free, and emerged fettered in MAGA chains
• And young White men empowered themselves to take the pussy whenever they feel like it

It seems that while the Kamala Harris campaign thought reaching out women and highlighting Trump and Vance's straight Nazi rhetoric was a winning platform, Trump's message he hammered home in his senile ramblings were about economics and helping the working class.  I think Bernie Sanders is correct and the Democratic Party leadership needs to jettison it's reliance on billionaires and jettison the semi-Republican platform of bowing to business and capitalism.  A radical realignment of focus onto the "forgotten man" economically without relying on homophobia, hatred, sexism, and oppression is the way forward.  Put Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in charge of the messaging and get rid of Nancy Pelosi and the Bill Clinton Third Way of Business friendly democratic policies.  They aren't winning you anything.  Tell Morning Joe Scarborough to fuck off with blaming the students at Ivy League schools for this loss and embrace a more left position.  You can not possibly do worse than losing every fucking branch of the Federal Government.

Yes, yes, the Corporate Media will hate you but guess... fucking... what... they already hate you and hated Joe Biden and worked overtime to undermine and undercut his Presidency and Kamala Harris campaign and re-install their beloved Leader Trump as I (and many others) fucking said they would.

So, throw the mealy-mouthed pleas to Capitalism aside and embrace a more radical democratic socialist or even Marxist way of doing things because pretty soon the Baby Boomers are going to die off (although their Reactionary politics will be adopted by Gen X) and the Millennial and Zoomers are going to be looking for a Government which says they will help them.  Right now that's Republicans even as their rightwing fascist policies grind them into dust they and the Corporate Media say their policy of oppression, intolerance, and slavish adulation of the rich are actually to help the Working Class.

MAGA Men: "Your Body. My Choice"

    And now the vicious mockery and gloating begins...

The Trump Trash are not excited at the prospect of fixing the economy or ending wars but at their ability to threaten, intimidate, harass and eventually oppress and control large swathes of the American people but especially women.

They are excited at the prospect of liberal tears and being able to yell Suck it Lib while they stalk and bully you.

The immediate and overwhelming flood of grotesque, sexist, rape fantasy Memes, and hundreds of reports in schools, neighborhoods, and all across social media of MAGA Men trolling women and little girls, and gloating at their ascendency can be summed up with the, YOUR BODY, MY CHOICE!

Terminally on-line Evan Kilgore posts non-stop
rape and murder fantasies on X

Despite the claims that this election victory was based on the economic anxiety of the white working class and legal Latino immigrant men the election of Trump was predicated on an intense hatred of women.

Of course, a large perplexing part of this is Trump (and Vance) won the majority of white women (for a 3rd time) in his stunning 2024 election victory.  I don't think Harris could have done a more earnest and honest outreach to women but, women choose to embrace the men who outright declare the Era of Women's Lib is fucking over.  Crooks and Liars has complied a few of the more overt gross groyper Rape Threats on Musk's Nazi X.

All over the country, in various States, Abortion referendums received broad support.  Apparently post election analysis includes 2.6 million women voted for Abortion access and also Donald Trump.  It's mind-boggling those voters could be so obtuse to not know what's in-store for them under a second Trump administration.  I expect most believe they are special and will be protected by Trump (after all that’s what Nancy Mace said) and any woman who does suffer did it to herself and is ipso facto a slut who deserved it.  And, of course, never forget the White House Press secretary, Mainstream Media, rightwing social media, Joe Rogan will dismiss these incidents they same way they've done with women suffering under draconic Republican anti-abortion policies.

What Trump and Vance have promised women is to remove their liberty under the guise of security.  

Kamala Harris concedes defeat, voters express their desire for a Trump led Era or Terror

Kamala Harris has conceded defeat to Trump and vowed to work fully in a peaceful transfer of power.

Before I get into the requisite post-mortem analysis, I want to give Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim "Coach" Walz a lot of credit for standing up and running a credible campaign in a mere 100 days, after having been handed a shit-sandwich of a nomination.

In a cruel inversion of JFK's famous dictum, after a Democratic Presidential Defeat, a thousand people comes up with a thousand reasons each for why it happened, even though these are never brought forth during the campaign.

Kamala Harris did not lose this election because there wasn't a contested jungle primary to choose a candidate after Joe Biden announced his withdrawal.  And no Kamala Harris did not lose because of the brutal and on-going Israel occupation of Gaza (and the West Bank).  And no, hunting after moderate Republicans, and highlighting Liz Cheney as a supporter did not cost her the election (but, I will say stop inviting those fucking Republicans to Democratic events and administrations from now on damn it).  And whatever other reason you can invent for why Harris supposedly lost is also bullshit when you look at the massive Republican victory in the House and Senate.

What happened is the old Post-WWII order of democratic western liberal society is under extreme pressure and is failing, and its' failure is being noticed by a very large percentage of Americans.

White Women Love Trump

Trump and Vance won this election because they offered the disaffected American people, a new world order, a new populism.  And that resonated with multiple groups across the country.  Trump dominated amongst White and Latino Men and got the same percentage of white woman as during his other campaigns.  Trump is a savvy politician and spoke to these groups.

What Trump and Vance and MAGA are offering is a Reactionary Populism which will address the failing economic power of these groups, in a way the currently aligned US Economy absolutely does not.

Harris, Biden, and a lot of Democratic strategists have been unable to understand why the economy wasn't a strong suit for Biden (and Harris).  All the indicators they pay attention to show it's booming economy and Biden's post-pandemic plans helped alleviate worse economic conditions.  But, the economy is only good for the Billionaires, the wealthy, and the already financially secure, it's shit for everyone else who is struggling and unable to get out of a paycheck to paycheck lifestyle.  Trump and Vance spoke directly to them.  

Certainly, Vance's oft mentioned plan of rounding-up and deporting 20 Million "Illegals" which will thus lead to Real Americans having a chance at a good paying job and affording a nice house is utter racist bullshit but, that's not what the white working class sees.  No, instead they see one candidate addressing their struggles and coming up with innovative strategies (No taxes on tips, no taxes on Overtime, drill baby drill) and the other party which is focused on Hollywood and Show Business celebrity endorsements and caters to the college educated snobs and elitists and the well-to-do Upper Middle Class.

Democrats only represent the
college educated well off
financially
Republicans are the now the 
Party of the Working Man

I think 84 year old Senator Bernie Sanders analysis is absolutely correct,

“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them,” the Vermont independent said in a statement Wednesday. “First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.”

I think the Democratic Party needs to jettison it's alliance with big money Capital and go in a radically marxist direction of running for office.  There's no much reason not to!  They aren't winning by running with lite softer versions of Republican Capitalist ideas and Republicans already call every Democrat running a radical left lunatic at every opportunity.  It can't get much worse than the 2024 bloodbath we just saw yesterday.

As it stands clinging to the there current election strategy is failure.  20th century liberalism and Institutions based upon the understanding are dying if they aren't dead already.  Republicans Reactionary populism is now the dominant paradigm and Democrats need a response.

Now, we get to see what Trump's insane campaign promises and fascist populism will wrought on the Nation.  Dealing with people at work, all gleeful gloating MAGA supporters, I adopted the stance that while I don't support Trump I nonetheless wish him great luck in helping to heal the Nation and earnestly hope his policy proposals aid in helping hard-working Americans be able to afford and enjoy the American Dream.

America's Hitler declares Victory over the United States

Donald Trump has declared victory and appears to be well on his way to winning the 2024 Presidential Election.

Thus, ends the myth of Door County Wisconsin
always choosing the President correctly

I'm stunned and saddened.  Can it be as simple as Kamala Harris suffered from the twin hatreds of misogyny and racism?

But, there can be no doubt about what happened.  This, isn't a LOL Nothing Matters fluke or an anti-Hillary Clinton 2016 backlash, the American Voter likes what Trump is selling them.  And not only is Trump going to win the Electoral College but he seems to have a chance of winning the popular vote.  I don't know why Democratic voters did not turn out.  I don't know what the young Zoomer generation wants or expects from the Federal Government, unless by these election results it is Transphobia and Anti-Imigrant sentiment.  I don't understand why voters in Missouri voted to overturn their states' Abortion Ban and expand maternity leave and then in the same election, voted for Josh Hawley and Mike Kehoe, who are vehemently opposed to those measures.

Despite the early post-mortems and gloating from the Right, the Democratic Party's problem is not simply a White Male Problem, Hispanics and Latinos in several states apparently turned out to vote for Trump.  These men feel entitled; to women's bodies, to a mythical standard of living of the 1950's, to not only respect but deference, to a whole host of "Rights" which they think have been taken away by Democrats.  And white women, despite everything, did not vote for Harris...

And I've never ascribed to the Media framing that a booming Stock Market and low unemployment were a sign of a Great Economy, but the Corporate Media sure did anytime a Republican was in office.  Were all the complaints about the price of eggs and being unable to afford a house, indicative of how Voters were going to punish Harris for the sins of Inflation?

I now await Trump, Vance, and his Presidential cabinetto fulfill his campaign promises of lowering housing costs, making gas and groceries more affordable, of ending crime, stepping in and stopping the Ukraine-Russia War, of solving the Israel-Gaza Crisis, of protecting women whether they like it or not.

It's hard to believe Trump is going to do any of the 20 things he's pledged in his campaign.  Sure, he's going to take immediate credit for the economy which will once again in early 2025 be the greatest in World History, and he'll no doubt keep "men" out of women's sports.  But, stopping World War 3?  When did it start?  Wasn't World War 3, actually, the Cold War, won single-handedly by Ronnie Raygun?  And keeping the dollar the reserve currency of the world?  How will Trump accomplish that by linking it with DOGE Coin and making the U.S. Dollar a crypto currency???  As for stopping the Weaponization of Government against Americas, that means Trump will Pardon himself, grant clemency and reparations to those arrested and convicted of crimes on Jan6th, and purge the DOJ, FBI, and other law enforcement agencies of anyone not ideologically bound to MAGA.

I, of course, shudder at the prospect of "Carrying out the largest deportation operation in American History" but, here we are... on the cusp of Stephen Miller's "Staging Grounds".

I don't see Trump leaving the White House alive.  I could see a Republican controlled House and Senate repealing the 22nd Amendment but, more likely than that he's going to die in office, he's not a healthy man and Peter Thiel and J.D. Vance are going to have pulled off one of the greatest Coups in modern political history.

For right now, come January 21st 2025, Trump is going to stride back into the White House and MAGA feels utterly emboldened to do everything their dark hearts desire.

Madam President, it’s to time to put the MAGA garbage into the dustbin of history

ETA:  In this dark hour, I'll not take down this post but leave it up as a reminder of the loss and what America has lost and will lose as Fascism has won in 2024.

Tuesday November 5th is here.  Today is the day, We the People, kick the Trash Fash to the curb (their incineration will have to come later).

Since, President Joe Biden made the bold, brave, and wise choice to step aside to save Democracy from DonOld Traitor Trump a second time, first by beating him decisively in 2020 and then by ensuring there was no fractured scramble for the nomination and putting the entire weight of the White House and the Democratic Party behind soon-to-be President Kamala Harris, we've seen Harris and her VP Pick Coach Walz run a fantastic nearly flawless campaign, overcoming a concerted effort by Billionaires, Republican terrorists, non-stop Rightwing Media Propaganda, and a collection of smaller fascist-adjacent villains trying to ensure 

Despite the worst efforts of the Trump backing Corporate Media,

Ryan Fournier emailed himself

poll after poll shows that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are going to not only win this election but win it handily, it’s going to be a blow out.  Trump and MAGA know they are losing which is why they are panicking, throwing tantrums, and screaming.  All they have are disinformation and propaganda, chiefly disseminated on Elon Musk Swastika X platform.

The reason Trump and his cabal of co-conspirators are lying incessantly is because 1st) they know from all the data they are going to lose and 2nd) they realize it's easy to plant the idea before the fact instead of after the fact.  That was the lesson learned by MAGA after defeat in 2020 in the run-up to Trump's attempt to Overthrow the United States Government on Jan 6th 2021.

But, this isn't 2020 nor is it 2016.  There was no overconfidence or a blithe dismissal of the threat posed by Trump and his cadre of fascist conspirators.  Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and the Biden Campaign team she inherited and augmented, learned from previous mistakes and ran an incredible campaign since the announcement on July 21st.  Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are going to win this election by over 10,000,000 votes and prepare to watch a stunned Faux News broadcast Harris winning Iowa, winning North Carolina, and maybe winning Florida.  Watch as Elon Musk in a ketamine induced haze tries to rally his army of bots into threatening violence hoping one of the real rightwing terrorists on his thinly-veiled Swastika stand-in X, to actually conduct a "Lone Wolf" attack.

Twitter is going to be a hellhole of rightwing lies, threats, calls for violence, and declarations of Civl War.  This isn't, unfortunately, the last time we have to hear garbage spewed from Trump or Just Dishonorable Vance or his Trash Fash supporters but, it is the first day towards his total irrelevance.

So, always be prepared for the obvious and credible threat of domestic terrorism posed by Trump and the vile criminal garbage who support him but, have optimism going forward.  Don't let the Fascists control your mind and emotions in these last few hours before the Harris and Walz victory, and win for the America people, and United States Democracy.  Harris Victory is going to be apparent tonight as evidenced by the demographics of the early voters but, like they did in 2020, the Corporate Media is going to resist declaring Trump's defeat for as long as possible.  He and his cabal will be declaring victory tonight if Trump hasn't already do so...  but, the MAGA psychosis of the last 10 years isn't Our Future.  We're Not Going Back.  Onward Madam President and Vice President Coach Walz!  Let's Fucking Go!

Drunk Van Orden is going to lose to Rebecca Cooke in Wisconsin 3rd District

 Drunken Derrick Van Orden is a disgrace to the United States House of Representatives, to the United States Naval Service, to the people of Wisconsin, and Americans everywhere.

I know alcoholism is a terrible disease and the hardest things for hard-core alcoholics to do is seek the treatment they need but, my sympathy for Drunk Van Orden doesn't extend to him getting re-elected to Congress.  Especially, since Van Orden participated in the January 6th Insurrection and has repeatedly lied about his involvement.  A shameful disgrace to his service.

I participated in Jan6th and all I got was this,
Lousy Congressional District (WI-3)

Van Orden from all accounts, his personal stories and his despicable actions has shown himself to be a mean drunk.  A mean hateful drunken sailor.  Trash if you will...  I've known these types from my time in the Corps and from dealing with mean drunks while working the job.

So, while Drunk Van Orden may be a pitiable man he's also a dangerous fascist and has no business in the US House of Representatives.

Vote Rebecca Cooke and give real Wisconsinites a voice in Congress who doesn't get blotto by Noon on Tuesdays.

Can Puerto Rico and Women save the United States of America from the Garbage People of MAGA?

 I had several long posts as we enter the last 48 hours of the 2024 elections but, all that matters is Will the Puerto Rican community and Women be the decideing factor to defeat the Trash Fash?

Trumps appeal to the garbage men of MAGA is not difficult to understand.  He transgresses and flouts everything; every law, norm, custom, convention, everything and gets away with it.  They wish they could do as he does.  The Trash Fash furious meltdown to the soon-to-be President Kamala Harris Julia Robert’s voting ad demonstrates how mad garbage MAGA is especially at women.

Garbage Men, the Corporate Media, the rubbish Republican Party, and their Billionaire backers see a Trump presidency giving them everything they desire.  What those things are vary but, Trump and Trash MAGA are welded together over it.

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have run a near flawless campaign and put forth real policies as well as working hard to reach as many Americans as possible. 

In less than 72 hours Harris and Walz are going to win the Presidency and Vice Presidency but this will not be the end against the Coalition of Garbage just as it wasn’t in 2020.  So do your part in these last days and get ready to rejoin the fray after Harris and Walz win on Tuesday Nov 5th.

L.A. Dodgers win the World Series: Thus Begins the Curse of the Jabronis

Jabroni Jeffrey Maier* (Austin Capobianco) 
grew up to be a jerk and brought his
Jabroni jerk-ass friend (John Peter) 
to the 2024 World Series too*
Unsurprisingly the families of these two asses
blamed Mookie Betts for calling out their
inappropriate, hazardous, and borderline
criminal antics.

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Evil Empire State Yankees in 5 games to win the 2024 World Series Championship.  Hopefully, after the two jerk-ass jabroni Yankees fans conducted themselves like all Yankees fans everywhere in Game 4 we can see the Yankees be afflicted with the Curse of the Jabronis.

I suppose this was the best outcome of a bad situation.  I hate both franchises because they represent everything wrong with the modern game.  Money is Everything.  

And don't let anyone tell you differently.  Both the Dodgers and Yankees sign away baseball's best players to massive contracts, thus undercutting the whole concept of the sporting ensuring other teams don't really have a chance to win.

No small market team or teams which draft, develop, mold, and build a stable of great players slowly has a chance to win anymore.  Those players get purloined by the big market teams which then amass a stable of other teams players and thus continue to win the Titles.

Baseball doesn't want to address this of course, because it's way better if the Yankees and Dodgers are in the Playoffs and way better to have the big fan base teams drawing viewership to various platforms so that MLB can continue to extract Billions (Yes that's Billions) from TV, streaming, and other media platforms.

ESPN, Fox and TNT are paying a combined $12 billion over seven years, ending in 2028. Apple has a separate seven-year deal, running through 2029 and worth a total of $595 million. Roku’s newly inaugurated Sunday afternoon games are worth $10 million per season to MLB.

Fox has the World Series rights until the end of this deal, and has seen 3 of the lowest viewership numbers in Baseball history since the Covid 2020 season.  So, having Shohei Ohtani in LA and thus making having the Japanese audience highly interested is unsurprising.

King of the Jabronis
Better than Willie McCovey

But, as the Dodgers celebrate their championship, the first without the presence of legendary broadcaster Vin Scully, let us remember the last time the Dodgers won the Series in 2020, treasonous King of the Weirdos and peerless Jabroni Trump was defeated in the Presidential Election.  

While, history doesn't repeat it does rhyme and Two-Time Loser Trump works in 2024.

*- Jeffrey Maier interfered in Game 1 of the 1996 ALCS, and his actions won the game for the Yankees, who went on to defeat the Baltimore Orioles and then the Atlanta Braves in the World Series. 

Matt Eberfluss, Tyrique Stevenson, and the Chicago Bears embarrassed themselves Nationally this weekend

 🐻 ⬇️

There are plays or games which undo years of hard work or become careeer defining and sometimes career ending.  In Chicago Bears history the loss to the Washington Commanders on the ‘Hail Mary, full of disgrace’ last Sunday epitomizes this team.

As the last drive unfolded, Tony Romo called out the Bears mistakes real time.  Romo also laid out the pass plays Washington needed to accomplish to put themselves into position to attempt the Hail Mary.  But, while the game ended on that last play the Bears coaches lost the game with the numerous mistakes they made throughout the game.

Coach Matt Eberfluss not only lost that game, he lost the Bears season, lost the team, and should lose his job.  Worse still as media in Chicago now dissects his every statement and is rehashing and reanalyzing past coaching mistakes Eberfluss has the Big Loser stench all over him.  

This embarrassment continues to grow and even Coach Walz took a swipe at the lowly Bears.  What makes it worse is it while campaigning in Wisconsin.  The Bears defeat 18-15 didn’t happen solely because of the final play or the clownish antics of Mr. Tyrique Stevenson but because the Bears coaching staff failed in all aspects of the game.  

The Bears defense kept this game close throughout the first 3 quarters holding Washington to 4 Field goals giving themselves a chance despite Caleb Williams and the offense being terrible.  Then new running back DeAndre Swift single-handedly hurdled over Washington as Caleb Williams found enough moxie and poise to put the Bears ahead with less than a minute in the 4th quarter!

Then after somehow overcoming a terrible performance Tyrique Stevenson cemented himself into the NFL film archives, alongside Leon Lett being chased down by Don Beebe in the Super Bowl, but it’s even worse because Stevenson’s taunting, lolly-gagging, and unprofessional clowning actually cost the Bears the game.  His video will be showed to young football players forever about what not to do.  I have some pity for Stevenson because he’s a young man playing in the bright lights of professional football but, as 670 The Score talked about him being a goof in practice, inattentive in pre-game walk-through, as well as highlighting his past on field egregious infractions it makes it seem like the play was not of character for him.  Which means his buffoonery on the field, while the final play has started, as the game hung in the balance is not only not unexpected but, tolerated.  Stevenson to his credit took blame on social media but, does it really matter?

This game was supposed to be the arrival party for the Bears and for Caleb Williams to take a step into the new pantheon of young QBs.  It was supposed to herald a new era in Chicago football, to be the springboard for the future, which would also see the Bears move to Arlington Heights and become a relevant NFL powerhouse again.

Just a couple weeks ago, Cole Kmet said he was looking forward to more prime time exposure for the Bears after their London romp over the Jaguars.  Instead the Bears are the laughing stock of the League Yet Again!

"I think it's a really good lesson for everyone to learn from in terms of how to respect the game," Cole Kmet said. "I think we had examples of that throughout the game and quite frankly throughout the week of practice this past week. There are moments where maybe some guys lay off here and there, those are the types of things that can happen when you do that for just a split-second. It doesn't always come to bite you in the butt but when it does, it hurts. That's the unfortunate and I would also say beauty of this game, if you disrespect it in a certain way and it'll come to haunt you in some form or fashion."

I don’t see how Eberfluss can recover from this, he’s about to become Mark Trestman a coach the Bears fans and media hated from day one and never gave a chance and whom players like Lance Briggs walked all over and like Double Doink Matt Nagy tenure, this current team under Eberfluss will never win a playoff game.

Unless Eberfluss pulls off a miracle this year this game will be the defining one for him as a coach. Unprepared.  Undisciplined.  Too cutesy play calling, by handing the ball off to a stone-handed lineman who promptly fumbled at the goal line instead of running the touchdown run in their playbook he himself calls ‘Gods Play’. Not calling timeouts to blunt Washington’s Hail Mary momentum. And not being able or willing to discipline a player who was out of position and whose frantic scramble to get back in resulted in the tipped ball and a lost game.

The Bears at the end of the season will find themselves one game out and this pathetic loss will be that game.
