Kidnapping a Governor Is OK, Say Americans

From Reuters, “A federal jury on Friday acquitted two men of conspiring to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer in 2020 and was deadlocked on the same charges for two other men. The men were charged in a plot prosecutors say had been inspired by their fierce opposition to pandemic-related restrictions that her office imposed. … The defense argued that the government used FBI informants and undercover agents to encourage the online discussions, hoping to entrap the defendants in alleged crimes because of their political views, they said. The acquittals come despite key testimony from Ty Garbin and Kaleb Franks, two others who were charged in the alleged plot before striking plea deals with prosecutors. Garbin is currently serving a six-year sentence, while Franks is awaiting sentencing.”

I am a broken record when I say this, but it is incomprehensible that there are no convictions in this case. There is not much to say besides America is dying, and here is but one more datum of proof! The political system has failed, and now the legal system has failed. The average citizen (juror) apparently feels that attempting to kidnap and murder the governor of Michigan is just fine. There is no other conclusion given the evidence and the witnesses in this case. And do not believe anyone who claimed the government entrapped them. That argument is always B.S., but it seems this jury of morons or traitor sympathizers believed the defense’s story. Oh, well. This is not surprising. Americans want this; there is no other explanation for the current state of the union except that people want to live in a lawless, dysfunctional country. Welcome to stupid America! Stupid people everywhere, everywhere stupid people.

Goalposts Have Not Moved

According to the brilliance of CNN, “Make no mistake: McConnell, in refusing to say whether he would hold hearings for any potential Supreme Court nominee in 2023 — which is not an election year — is seeking to, again, move the goalposts of how and when the Senate will confirm justices.” No, no! Once again, the MSM is full of idiots. McConnell’s goalposts remain precisely where they have always been for years: Whenever a Democrat is president and RepubliKKKlans control the Senate, then there will be no SCOTUS confirmations. Full stop! Since Obama, this has always been the case, so I have no idea why Chris Cillizza believes the situation has changed with McConnell’s “revelation.” Perhaps the morons in the MSM want to keep believing in the old traditions, the old ways, a civil RepubliKKKlan Party. So, f***ing G.D. stupid!

Look, f***tards. McConnell denied Merrick Garland’s confirmation on the rationalization that it was an election year, yet McConnell confirmed Amy Coney Barrett while people were voting (out traitor trump) in the 2020 election. So, what does that say? What should the idiot MSM have deduced from McConnell’s actions back then? Exactly what I just said: The goalposts have not changed; a RepubliKKKlan-control Senate will never confirm a SCOTUS nominee put forward by a Democratic president. Ugh! I can’t believe these professional journalists actually get paid for their “analysis” that yields the wrong conclusions. Oh! And, of course, no one cares, least of all Democrats! I live in stupid hell! Welcome to stupid America!

It! Is! Time!

Bodies of civilians, who according to residents were killed by Russian army soldiers, lie on the street, amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. (Reuters)

From Reuters, “Ukraine on Sunday accused Russian forces of carrying out a ‘massacre’ in the town of Bucha, while Western nations reacted to images of dead bodies there with calls for new sanctions against Moscow.”

It is time! It is f***ing time to destroy Putin and Russia along with him! It is time to expand this war because these war crimes — genocide is a crime against humanity — cannot stand! Unfortunately, we’ve seen this movie before, even in recent times; the world watches and ultimately does nothing in response. Oh, sure. International bodies investigate and publish some reports and speak some words of admonishment, yet, in the end, the perpetrators are blamed but held unaccountable. This kind of goes back to my original fear that the West would simply sit back and wring their collective hands over the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

So! What must the West do to prove me wrong? They must go on the offensive in Ukraine. Russia has been severely weakened. NATO et al. must push through. More sanctions! More assistance to Ukraine. More hardware. I was reluctant to suggest acceding to Ukraine’s request for fighter jets for fear it would start World War III, but I am no longer confident that Russia could muster a fight about which the West should worry. Send jets, send tanks, send air defense systems. I’m even warming up to a no-fly zone. Do not wait. Russia is back on its heels. This is not the moment the West steps back and congratulates itself, which they are undoubtedly considering. Now is the time to go on the offensive. Now is the time to push Russia out of every inch of Ukraine. Now is the time to restore Ukraine’s sovereignty to pre-2014. This is the West’s weakness that I fear. They are so fearful of confronting Putin that they eventually allow him to run rough-shot over Ukraine and the world. NATO et al. need to put an end to Putin once and for all!

Look, f***tards! The sooner the West realizes that the world cannot coexist with Putin any longer, the sooner the West can actually start planning for the inevitable. It is clear to me that the West is on an inevitable collision course with Russia. At this point, we cannot avoid it. Now is the time for the West to actually prove that it wants and is willing to defend democracy against autocracy. I still won’t hold my breath because they always seem to fall short, despite as much as the West has done up to now. They always fail to achieve total victory! We’re at the moment where the mob boss says, “You can pay me now, or you can pay me later.” The problem with the West is that they always think they can avoid paying. There is absolutely no deal that the West can or should strike with Putin. No, no! It is time to pay! They need to fix the Putin problem before traitor trump returns to office and basically hands Ukraine to Russia. Mark my words on that! Slava Ukraini!

Confirmed: Justice Served

Al Drago for The New York Times

Now, this from The New York Times, “Overcoming a concerted effort by conservative Republicans to derail her nomination, Judge Jackson was confirmed on a 53-to-47 vote, with three Republicans joining all 50 members of the Democratic caucus in backing her.” Historic! Congratulations to Justice Jackson!

Of course, racist RepubliKKKlans Rand Paul and Aunt Lindsey Graham had to get their final digs in during roll call. First, Aunt Graham failed to wear the required tie to be present on the Senate floor, so he had to vote from an antechamber. Second, Paul held up the final vote count because they couldn’t find him; apparently, he forgot about the most historic SCOTUS confirmation in the nation’s existence! In short, both these douchebags had to showcase their contempt for Justice Jackson because they’re racists. And, naturally, dumbass Democrats had to indulge Paul! Instead of waiting for him to saunter into the chamber eventually, they could have closed the voting to cast his “no” vote. F*** that! She already had the majority to be confirmed. If he can’t be bothered to make sure he’s present by the time his name is called, then f*** him and his vote! But, oh no! Dumbass Democrats always have to place nice. God! F*** me! Why would they give him the satisfaction of being on the record as a vote against when, in truth, he should have been a no vote because he was not present. And we wonder why Democrats lose more often than they win; they have no idea how to play political hardball!

F*** the MSM!

Slava Ukraini

From The Guardian, “Soldiers fighting for Ukraine appear to shoot a Russian prisoner of war outside a village west of Kyiv in a video posted online.” I first heard this story on CNN during two different shows — one led with the report — but I found it in print in several places. No matter the source, I say f*** the MSM. So, what? Is this the MSM trying to be “fair and balanced” and “both sides” good versus evil? WTF! I don’t give one m*****f***ing G.D. f*** about Ukrainian soldiers killing Russian prisoners of war. This is not news in any sense at all. The MSM needs to just shut the f*** up and pick the right side. Hint: Russia is the enemy, and Ukraine is the ally. (I should note that I have not heard this reporting story on MSNBC, nor would I expect to because this story is not newsworthy!)

Is the MSM on the side of democracies or autocracies? Because when they start dedicating air time and print space to point out what Ukrainian soldiers are doing to Russian captives, then they are disparaging Ukraine and promoting Russia. And I will be the first to admit that I’m openly being hypocritical. I will admit to (rightly) accusing Russia and Putin of war crimes while looking the other way regarding Ukraine’s behavior. So, what?!?! I don’t care because to do so is a false equivalency. There is a difference between war crimes used as a military strategy and the misbehavior of a rogue Ukrainian soldier. These two scenarios are not even close; they are not in the same universe. I’m sorry, but when someone kicks you in the teeth for no reason, then you have the right to blow their brains out. No questions asked! Of course, none of this should be new to readers, for I have written before that Ukraine should not be taking prisoners of war — at all, ever! Every Russian they let go is just one more enemy who will come back to kill Ukrainian civilians, and every Russian captive they keep alive drains Ukrainian resources. Slava Ukraini!

Sorry, Obama. It’s Too Late!

Reporting from CNN, “Former President Barack Obama spoke at length about the war in Ukraine on Wednesday, telling an audience in Chicago that the conflict is a ‘bracing reminder for democracies that had gotten flabby and confused and feckless around the stakes of things that we tended to take for granted,’ including the United States. That includes the ‘rule of law, freedom of press and conscience … independent judiciaries, making elections work in ways that are fair and free,’ Obama said during remarks at a forum hosted by the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and The Atlantic on disinformation. ‘We have gotten complacent. And I cannot guarantee that as a consequence of what has happened that we are shaking off that complacency,’ he said, adding, however, that he has been ‘encouraged’ by how the European nations have reacted to Russia’s ongoing, deadly invasion of Ukraine. Asked if he wishes he had done more about Russia during his administration, the former President said ‘the circumstances were different’ when Russia invaded Crimea, in part because European nations were far less interested in intervening.”

No, no! Democracies have not “gotten flabby”; they have atrophied. And, dare I say, they are incapable of recovering in large part because of the growing stupidity of humanity, especially Americans. There is a direct correlation — nay, cause and effect — between America’s inability to eschew misinformation while simultaneously embarrassing conspiracies (cause) and America’s move toward autocracy (effect). There has always been an understanding from America’s Founding Fathers that democracy required an engaged — not complacent — and educated — enlightened, not stupid — citizenry. “Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day,” says Thomas Jefferson. Would you say America is engaged and enlightened? Clearly, not. Hence, the name of this blog.

I see the signs augmenting every day. For example, when QAnon becomes mainstream, evinced by QAnon kooks running for Congress and winning, then there is no recovery. It is a malignancy that has already infected every part of the country. America is incapable of rehabilitation; there is no cure. Once the cancer is this advanced, it cannot be remediated. As I have said before, once a cultist, always a cultist! That does not apply just to individuals! America is stupid, too stupid to keep its democracy. Mark my words! It’s too late.

Joe Scarbrough: ‘How Bad Democrats Are at Playing Politics’

No true words have ever been spoken. My God! There are days that I really have to believe Democrats are dumber than RepubliKKKlans. I’ve always known Democrats have been weak while showing a few, sporadic moments of strength, but all in all, they are a feckless bunch, and in this pivotal time in American history, when political ruthlessness is needed to save our country, we are stuck with dumbass Democrats. As I have said countless, countless times before, Biden is the intermission to the end of democracy. This administration is merely a speed bump when we had been hoping — I know, I hate the word hope — that by some miracle of God, Democrats would be the wall, but 2021 clearly evinced the futility of such daydreaming. Regrettably, in the end, Democrats always revert to their true selves: An incompetent political party that doesn’t understand the game. I’ve been saying from the start that Democrats keep acting like they have majority control of Congress. They! Do! Not! How many f***ing times do I have to say it? How long before dumbass Democrats actually understand this fact? I’m talking technically and realistically. May I remind Democrats and readers that there are 48 elected Democrats and two elected Independents in the Senate. Democrats are fortunate that the Independents (King and Sanders) caucus and usually vote with Democrats, but the fact remains that the Democratic Party is still unable to get 50 elected Democrats in the Senate. Then there are the DINOs, which are a whole other issue and present more of a roadblock than the Independents. So, Democrats really need to be — should have been — focused on getting more Democrats elected to Congress.

That brings me to my next point. Biden should have said from day one: Thank you for electing me, but it is not enough. I need more Democrats in elected office — everywhere and at every level, especially in Congress. He should have said that 50-50 is not a majority, and there is very little I can do with such a Senate, except confirming judges — something on which Democrats should be more focused. From the very beginning of his term, he should have tempered expectations because of not having said majority. Indeed, ideally, he needs a supermajority, but one pipe dream at a time. Then he should have immediately started campaigning for the midterms to achieve a true majority. But no! Instead, he and every other dumbass Democrat interrupted a 50-50 Senate as a mandate from the people. That is why we are exactly in the spot we’re in now: Biden is essentially no more popular than traitor trump. Then I am sadly reminded that Biden probably won more because of the anti-traitor trump vote than because of the pro-Biden vote. The question then becomes this: Are voters, especially Independents, willing to go back to traitor trump? Yes! Welcome to stupid America!

Watch Le Pen

From Reuters, “French President Emmanuel Macron would beat Marine Le Pen in the country’s presidential election later this month, though Le Pen has gained ground in recent weeks, showed an Ipsos Sopra Steria Cevipof poll for Le Monde newspaper. The poll showed Macron would lead in the first round of votes on April 10, with 26.5% versus 21.5% for Le Pen in second place. Those figures compared to 28% for Macron and 17.5% for Le Pen in the last poll conducted March 21-24, said Ipsos Sopra Steria Cevipof. Macron would then beat Le Pen in the second round run-off vote on April 24 by 54% to 46%.”

I am not familiar with elections in France, so I can only comment based on what I read, without the benefit of any insight to read between the lines. Suffice it to say, Le Pen gaining on Macron especially given Russia’s war on Ukraine is alarming given Le Pen is being bankrolled by Putin, and she, like traitor trump, is anti-UN and pro-Russia. She is a far-right candidate running on populist, xenophobic, racist, and a “France First” agenda. Sound familiar? This is dangerous, and this “My Country First” mentality is a rising danger worldwide. Of course, there is nothing wrong with putting one’s country first; I would expect nothing less. The problem is that this mentality is more malignant. It is not just “My Country First”; it is also “My Country Only” with strong strains of white nationalism and unmitigated hatred. It is the type of thinking that Putin is exploiting, and it is this mentality that will destroy the current world order. Trust me when I say you do not want the current world order to dissolve. And by current world order, I mean countries being allowed to self-determine without endangering the rest of the world. And when I say “world order” I do not mean some nefarious cabal of Jews pulling the strings, f***tards. Ugh! If anyone thought that, then I hate you and your conspiracy ladened cheese-holed brain. I have more to say on this, but let’s see how the elections in France play out first. If Le Pen wins, then it will be the beginning of the end of liberal democracies around the world. This race is the quintessential canary in the coal mine.

Zelenskyy Schools the UNSC

Slava Ukraini

According to the Insider, “Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy railed against the United Nations’ ineffectiveness to stop Russia’s ongoing war in a speech to the Security Council on Tuesday. Zelenskyy told the UN Security Council (UNSC) that he sees two options for the group following the discovery of mass civilian killings in the Kyiv suburb of Bucha: punish Russia or dissolve itself. The Ukrainian leader urged the UNSC to remove Russia, which is a permanent member of the council, ‘as an aggressor and a source of war so it cannot block decisions about its own aggression.’ Or, he said, the UN’s security body can ‘dissolve’ and reform entirely.”

In short, Zelenskyy called out the UNSC for being worthless, and he’s absolutely right. Even Pope Francis agrees, ‘“In the war in Ukraine, we are witnessing the impotency of the United Nations.’” (Of course, the Pope and I desire different means by which the UN regains relevance.) It’s insane that Russia, as a permanent member of the Security Council, can veto any vote against its own illegal aggression. So, what I feared and said before war broke out is starting to come to fruition, namely that the West and the world will stand by and watch the fall of Ukraine. When I say stand by and watch, I mean the West will not go on the offensive. It is beginning to come to pass. The United Nations was created to keep world peace, but as usual, it is failing at a time as critical since WW II. If genocide and illegal war are not enough for the entire world to stand against Russia, then the world is lost. There is no place in this world for Putin’s Russia. Yet the world seems to be in ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ mode. Oh, well.
