Wow! Did I not call this just a couple of weeks ago (see Not So Fast)? In fact, this is not the first time. Over a year ago I said as much about traitor trump pardons. And right on cue, as if traitor trump were reading my blog, according to The Hill, “Former President Donald Trump said during a rally in Texas on Saturday that he would consider pardoning those charged in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, saying he would treat them ‘fairly’ if he were reelected. At Saturday’s rally in Conroe, Tex., Trump said, ‘If I run, and if I win, we will treat those people from Jan. 6 fairly.’ ‘And if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons,’ he continued. ‘Because they are being treated so unfairly.’” Of course, my prediction that traitor trump would want to pardon the insurrectionists is no great intellectual feat. It was only a logical supposition. The real trick is to come off as being authoritative and prescient before anyone else does. And I don’t recall anyone from the MSM or elsewhere — that I’ve read or seen — making a similar prediction going back as early as I had — the day after the January 6 insurrection. (Granted, I thought he would issue a blanket pardon walking out the door. He almost did!) And it’s not a matter of if or who or when traitor trump pardons. It is definitely yes and it is all of them and it is as soon as possible. I’ve long ago learned that conservative political criminals in America always get away with everything because RepubliKKKlans demand it and dumbass Democrats let them! Welcome to stupid America. Nothing ever changes.
Political Prophet James Carville
From Vox, “Just look at how Democrats organize and spend money. For Christ’s sake, [South Carolina Democrat] Jaime Harrison raised over $100 million only to lose his Senate race to Lindsey Graham by 10 points. Amy McGrath runs for Senate in Kentucky and raises over $90 million only to get crushed by Mitch McConnell. They were always going to lose those races, but Democrats keep doing this stupid shit. They’re too damn emotional. Democrats obsess over high-profile races they can’t win because that’s where all the attention is. We’re addicted to hopeless causes. What about the secretary of state in Wisconsin? Or the attorney general race in Michigan? How much money are Democrats and progressives around the country sending to those candidates? I’m telling you, if Democrats are worried about voting rights and election integrity, then these are the sorts of races they should support and volunteer for, because this is where the action is and this is where things will be decided. You know who is paying attention to these races? The Republican Party. Last I checked, Republicans raised $33 million for secretary of state races around the country. The Democrats had until recently raised $1 million. I think it’s now up to $4 million. That’s the story, right there. That’s the difference, right there. Bitching about a Democratic senator in West Virginia is missing the damn plot [emphasis added].”
I love this man! If James Carville were a political party, then I would be all in. This man is the only Democrat who is not a dumbass and actually understands how to play the political game to win. It seems that most actual dumbass Democrats routinely ignore his perspective and sagacity. He actually gets it! In the words of Carville on Democrats, “Just quit being a whiny party and get out there and fight.” Sadly, he delivers the most sage advice to the least capable political party. Oh, well. Have I mentioned lately that were screwed? Welcome to stupid America.
Schumer: A Disastrous Leader — Shame!
According to Alternet, “Drawing on reporting in Politico and Business Insider, Quay explains, ‘(Schumer’s) failure to reach a compromise with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) to pass the Build Back Better bill and his decision to force a vote on President Biden’s already doomed voting rights agenda, several Democratic staffers told Politico, highlighted divisions in the party at a time when Democrats are in danger of losing their already razor-thin majority…. Schumer turned Sens. Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) into scapegoats, staffers argued, subjecting his fellow Democrats (to) the ire that ought to have been directed toward Republicans.’ … A senior House Democratic aide, presumably interviewed on condition of anonymity, told Politico, ‘Leadership 101 is even if you don’t get someone today, you’re going to need them tomorrow. The level of malpractice is stunning. BBB is a once-in-a-ten-year opportunity, and we fucked it up.’” I’ve never been a fan of Schumer; he’s always been a weak player, and I cringed during every Senate floor speech where his strongest words of rebuke to RepubliKKKlan skullduggery was “shame!” Oh, my f***ing God! Really? “Shame?” “Shame on them,” Schumer would exclaim. Wow! Truly, truly milquetoast. What a f***ing G.D. joke. RepubliKKKlans have no shame. Did he really think he was landing any political punches or making a point? Pelosi has bigger balls than Schumer.
So, not only is Schumer weak in his speaking, but he is weak in his actions. The latest demonstration of his feebleness was the disastrous and failed voting rights bill. The only thing Schumer proved is that he knows how to bring up a bill to showcase his complete incompetence. He claimed he wanted to put everyone on the record, to make them vote against voting rights as if those casting a no vote would be shamed into changing their minds. No one cares and no one will remember who voted against the bill. All they will remember is Democrats failed to pass it. When the leader of Senate dumbass Democrats relies on “shame” as the cornerstone of whipping his caucus votes, then what else does one expect to happen? Thankfully, I think Sinema and Manchin have thick skins, so they’ll roll with the punches. But if dumbass Democrats think there is anyone else in all of West Virginia that can keep the one and only Democratic seat in the state delegation, then by all means back that person. But guess what? There isn’t one. Thus, we have to live with Manchin and all the power he wields, or as Manchin, himself repeatedly tells leadership: Elect more Democrats! Truly! My God! We are so f***ing screwed! I just can’t deal with the weakness and the stupidity anymore. Welcome to stupid America! P.S. Democrats, don’t f*** up the SCOTUS nomination! Seriously!
Niger, Please!
Looks like Governor DeathSantis found his house n****r! Yes, Massa. Rights ways, Massa! I am sorry to be so crude, but one must call a spade a spade — so to speak — when one finds one. At any other time, RepubliKKKlans would call Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo an uppity dumb n****r born in Nigeria; normally, he would have no chance of being confirmed in such a purely racist state, but because he’s an anti-vaxxer, anti-masker Harvard graduate who serves the purposes of advancing the conservative culture wars while demonstrating DeathSantis is decidedly “not racist,” then he’s part of the good ole boys until he’s not. Whatever! A stupid state elected a stupid governor who nominates a stupid surgeon general who will dispense stupid medical advice and advance stupid public health policies that kill mostly RepubliKKKlans — though never enough — is fine by me. So, be my f***ing guest! Unfortunately, there are so many RepubliKKKlans in Florida that I don’t think any amount of public health mismanagement can kill enough RepubliKKKlan voters to swing the next election. One can only pray! Welcome to stupid America!
‘Welcome to hell’
Virginia and Virginians are going to be my new punching bag of citizen stupidity and “be careful what you wish for” incriminations. Virginia is my new go-to example of idiot voters failing to re-elect a Democratic governor because they’re still having a tantrum over COVID. Why haven’t Democrats fixed the pandemic yet!?!? So, the tantrum-ists go. F*** me! Once again, a RepubliKKKlan gets into office less so because RepubliKKKlans voted for him and more so because Democrats and Independents failed to vote against him. Apparently, 50.6 percent of the vote is a mandate that everyone must live with for — probably — ever. Oh, well. Slate put it perfectly: “Welcome to hell.” LOL. And as Dahlia Lithwick of Slate states in her piece, “I’m hardly the first to worry that states racing to enact ever more insane incursions on educational freedom and a teacher’s right to speak and book bans are destined to end in reprisals and mass resignations and bounty schemes and threats of violence. At this point, I must assume that such vigilantism is the point. Parents are frayed and starved for leadership. Some leaders have realized that the inflaming of tensions around masks garners votes. The problem is it also destabilizes government authority. Youngkin didn’t just turn student against student, parent against parent, or pit principals against educators and states against federal rules with the stroke of a pen the day he was sworn in. He personally modeled contempt for authority—he encouraged it and rewarded it. He did so in the full knowledge that he was essentially deputizing furious parents to follow only the kinds of laws they liked and conscripting their kids into participating.”
But wait! There is more! From Salon, “New Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin is begging Virginia parents to call his tip line to report teachers for teaching ‘divisive’ subjects. While they called it a tip line, the office only revealed an email [in] the press release: helpeducation@governor.virginia.gov. … ‘We’re asking for folks to send us reports and observations,’ Youngkin said, ‘help us be aware of … their child being denied their rights that parents have in Virginia, and we’re going to make sure we catalogue it all. … And that gives us further, further ability to make sure we’re rooting it out.’” This is straight-up Gestapo-style denouncing! Denounce your neighbors, family, and friends! Did Virginians expect anything less from a RepubliKKKlan governor? They are starting to call Youngkin traitor trump in a red vest as if that was completely unforeseeable before he was elected. During the campaign, people viewed him as a moderate RepubliKKKlan. Anyone with two eyes and two brain cells to rub together could have seen otherwise. Eh! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
At some point, I have to believe this really is what the stupid people of Virginia wanted. What am I to deduce when voters weighed the merits of the RepubliKKKlan Party and the Democratic Party and then voted for the RepubliKKKlan candidate? Or, worse still, voters considered both constituents and then decided not to vote at all. Acquiescing via a no vote is indeed a vote for the winner. What am I supposed to think? There is only one conclusion: This! Is! What! People! Want! Either through direct vote or indirectly by not voting. Once again, oh, well. As usual, by the time RepubliKKKlans get into office and start decreeing everything, then it’s too late for voter epiphanies. This week it is masks and vaccines. Next week it will be abortion and LGBTQ rights — the RepubliKKKlan playbook is right on schedule and completely as expected. Anyone who thought Youngkin was no traitor trump or not another extremist RepubliKKKlan is a moron. I guess Virginia is for morons and haters, not lovers! Voters, especially lazy Democrats and Independents, need to wake the f*** up! I’ll be watching this state closely. Welcome to stupid America!
SOB: This Is the Biden I Like!
From The Hill, “President Biden was caught on a hot microphone Monday calling Fox News reporter Peter Doocy a ‘stupid son of a bitch’ after he asked a question about inflation.” This is the Biden I like to see and I know it is the Biden more Democrats want to see as well. I know he has a reputation for being salty and cutting behind closed doors, but his kumbaya/”can we all just get along”/folksy public persona drives me absolutely f***ing nuts because he comes off as weak and naive when he plays grandpa to the nation. F*** that! Tell morons they’re stupid. Call out a**holes for who they are. Hit back, Biden. We like it! Since we can’t constantly be holding a mirror up to Biden’s nose, moments like this convince us that he has some life in him! And I don’t think this was a “hot mic” (unintentional) moment. Although, I’m not sure why he called to apologize. Probably because of what happened below with CNN.
Then, naturally, we have the MSM reaction to Biden just after it happened. CNN, in particular, jumped all over this episode as if there had been this great indignation against the media. Oh, my! Biden called a spade a spade. How dare he! How dare he get frustrated at what was yet another stupid “gotcha” question from Faux News, as if traitor trump had not spent every day of this term attacking the MSM. God forbid Biden steps out of line once. Then it becomes a national catastrophe — an attack by the executive branch on the fourth branch. So, f***ing ridiculous. Mika Brzezinski — I still haven’t forgiven her for her treatment of Hillary — actually got the coverage spot on. At the beginning of Morning Joe they played the Biden clip and then she said that is all they’re going to say on the matter and moved on. Exactly! It may have been news but it was not newsworthy.
’72 percent of Americans say the country is headed in the wrong direction’
Oh, joy! Another poll. Another snapshot into the dangerous psyche of the mob. In this latest installment of “where are we now” from NBC News, there are only two responses that matter: “On the state of the nation’s politics, 70 percent agree with the statement that America has become so polarized that it can no longer solve the major issues facing the country — and that those differences will only continue to grow. … That’s a significant shift from when this question was last asked in 2010 — when 50 percent answered that America always comes together in tough times, versus 45 percent who said that the nation’s political differences would only grow. … [And] a whopping 76 percent of Americans — including 7 in 10 Democrats, Republicans and independents — believe there is a threat to democracy and majority rule in this country.”
So! I have heard countless politicians, political pundits, and historians keep reassuring their audiences that Americans will get through these troubled times, that claiming America is headed toward a new civil war is ridiculous and needlessly alarmists, that Americans always come together in the end. And to all these f***tards I always roll my eyes because they are the ones in la-la land. Are you f***ing kidding me with this sh*t? They are just as willfully ignorant and quixotic about the world around them as Carlie Brown and the football. I’ve been saying we’re headed toward a civil war for nearly two years now. In fact, we are in a cold civil war as we speak, and it is only a matter of time before it turns hot. Now, I’m not suggesting the populous will form battle lines with opposing generals leading formations of organized and uniformed soldiers. No, no! This will be more gorilla warfare with random acts of violence, political assassinations, and all-out skirmishes. Like those seen when racists fought with BLM protestors, but much bloodier. Rather than formalized conflict, it will be one block of neighbors against another. It will be neighbors driving out other neighbors as one majority group expels the minority. It will be a slow consolidation, not unlike what is happening now with progressives moving to cities and urban areas while conservatives continue to entrench themselves and wither in rural areas. It will be rural versus urban with militias protecting their turf.
With poll numbers like the ones above, there is only one way to proceed — and that is through! There is no other way, morons. There is no going back or retreating. There is no coming together. The differences are irreconcilable; one side believes in facts and the other side believes in lies. One side is rational; the other side is brainwashed. It is impossible to meet in the middle under such circumstances. There is no other way to undo this mess, except through a great cleansing. There is no reconciliation or mutual understanding, except for the realization that the only way such a divided nation can preserver is when one faction successfully dominates and destroys the other. People may look back to the 1960s as proof we can overcome these troubled times, and in response to that, I say this country is just getting warmed up. This century is not like the last. America is dumber, more armed, more polarized, and more gullible to the point where morons of America absorb and propagate conspiracy theories and other nonsense as if they were sources of mental nutrients. The next presidential election will be the flashpoint of no return, no matter what the results. Although, I will concede there is less likelihood of an eruption of all-out war if a RepubliKKKlan wins because dumbass Democrats will readily give up and accede to domination by RepubliKKKlans and the crazies. Let’s face it: RepubliKKKlans, MAGA morons, evil evangelicals, and QAnon f***tards want to destroy democracy more than dumbass Democrats and Independents want to keep it. Sorry, I have to admit the truth! Mark my words. Of course, if RepubliKKKlans lose, then all hell will break out because they’ve all been conditioned to believe that whenever Democrats win then the election was stolen, without exception. It is a convenient fallacy in which RepubliKKKlans delude themselves into believing they can never — should never — lose an election. As I have said many, many, many, many, many times before a nation this stupid cannot survive. Verily! Welcome to stupid America!
Here’s Another Thing I Got Right, Although Not That Prescient
I was just writing about this possibility a week ago. From the Tampa Bay Time, “Florida Republican lawmakers on Thursday returned to the hot topic of parental rights in schools, a theme that Gov. Ron DeSantis has seized on during the pandemic and that Republican lawmakers are willing to continue fighting for during the legislative session. … But the measures drew fierce criticism, including from members of the LGBTQ community, who argued that the latter proposal appeared to target and minimize their concerns by prohibiting discussion in elementary schools about gender identity and sexual orientation. … Several speakers rose to oppose the bill, primarily over the section on sexual orientation and gender identity. They suggested the item was stigmatizing, and noted that lawmakers did not attempt to tackle any other potentially controversial matters that might arise in school.”
Make no mistake, f***tards! This is a direct attack on the LGBTQ community while under the veiled notion of parental rights. The aim is very simple: Deny LGBTQ people their humanity by claiming gayness as being something that is harmful to children; ignore that the LGBTQ community is an underclass by making it illegal to discuss the topic. This is the new “gays are pedophiles” attack! They want to put gays back in the closet. All because white straight cis parents are m*****f***ing G.D. snowflakes who can’t handle reality or nature for that matter. The only people who are afraid to allow schools to decide relevant curricula are those bigoted, homophobic haters. Full stop! No exceptions! They are all RepubliKKKlans and evil evangelicals. Full stop! No exceptions! I have yet to hear about one piece of legislation moving through a RepubliKKKlan (or Democratic) legislature seeking to ban or alert parents about school curricula that claim white straight Christians impose their belief system on American society and politics. And do you really think this type of anti-LGBTQ censorship is going to stop at schools and libraries? Florida is about to pass an anti-“white discomfort” bill, which also applies to private businesses. How long before a white straight cis male gets “uncomfortable” working with a gay coworker for no particular reason other than the coworker is gay? The white discomfort bill is ostensibly aimed at content related to teaching students and training employees, but we all know RepubliKKKlans never let the words or intent of the law stop them from claiming white privilege infringement. Mark my words! It’s coming!
I have been warning you morons since the founding of this blog that LGBTQ rights are under attack and that RepubliKKKlans are coming for our rights next. These new “protect my virgin ears” and “but the children” laws are not being created in a vacuum. With the new super-majority of conservative justices dictating SCOTUS moves and opinions, these new flavors of anti-LGBTQ laws are just the beginning. Mark my words. First, it will be outlawing conversations about LGBTQ people and issues. Then, it will be outlawing LGBTQ behavior, all protected under the notion of states’ rights and there being no such thing as a right to privacy embedded in the Constitution — an idea that is soon to be re-realized by a theocratic-leaning SCOTUS when they reverse Row. I don’t know how many f***ing times I have to keep saying this to you morons, but it is all related! CRT, LGBTQ rights, Roe, voting rights, traitor trump, anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers! It’s all related, people. All of it. You guys need to be thinking about the RepubliKKKlan long game because it is playing out as we speak. But this is what happens in a country full of stupid, apathetic people who worry more about Facebook and Twitter than voting! And for all those gay f***tards, in particular, who thought traitor trump would be no worse than any other RepubliKKKlan (or Democratic) president, you people really are the dumbest of humanity. You gay traitor trump voters have really doomed yourselves! So, congratulations. This is the consequence of your political ignorance and indifference. The stupid is going to kill us all, but the gays will be first! Oh, well! You just played yourselves.
I Said This Months and Months Ago!
Wow! Hello, Captain Obvious. Of course, what Haberman just said is the exact same thing I have been saying for many, many months. Indeed, I even warned AG Garland of the same political move just a couple of weeks ago when I wrote to him telling him to quit; I posted it previously. I have always said there were two things traitor trump was waiting for prior to announcing his next run for office. One, RepubliKKKlans taking back the House in the midterms, and two, legal indictments becoming imminent. Whichever comes first will determine the timing of his announcement. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s just that simple, morons!
And, of course, something is seriously wrong with our system if someone runs for president to avoid accountability for criminal behavior, but, hey, it’s the American way! Seriously, America is a consequence-free society for those at the highest levels of power, facilitated by dumbass Democrats’ incompetence and RepubliKKKlans’ pertinaciousness and love of criminals. Full stop! This goes back to Obama refusing to prosecute Bush II for clear war crimes related to torture and now with RepubliKKKlans’ full embrace of MAGA morons, insurrectionists, white nationalists, and the most criminal president in the history of the country. This is all par for the course. So, don’t be surprised if criminal indictments come one day and traitor trump declares his candidacy the next. Then watch those prosecutions disappear. Oh, well. You always heard it here first! Welcome to stupid America!
Russian Invasion Is Imminent
From The New York Tims, “On Jan. 5, 18 people — mostly the children and wives of Russian diplomats — boarded buses and embarked on a 15-hour drive home to Moscow, according to a senior Ukrainian security official. About 30 more followed in the next few days, from Kyiv and a consulate in Lviv, in western Ukraine. Diplomats at two other Russian consulates have been told to prepare to leave Ukraine, the security official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss national security matters. How to interpret the evacuation has become part of the mystery of divining the next play by President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia. Thinning out the Russian Embassy may be part propaganda, part preparation for a looming conflict or part feint, Ukrainian and U.S. officials say. It could be all three.” The stupid hurts and the MSM is making it worse. I am getting rather sick of news anchors, commentators, pundits, and “experts” “all-sides-ing” blatant evidence that Russia is preparing — has been for months now — to invade Ukraine, yet everyone seems to be providing alternate — any number of other conceivable — explanations as to why Putin may not be preparing to invade. (Except Lt. Colonel Vindman. He’s been very clear-eyed with his analysis about what’s sure to happen.) I don’t know what the f*** it is with Americans that love to be willfully ignorant, complacent, and stupid. Perhaps the MSM doesn’t want to be alarmist. Well, maybe they should be. Maybe they need to wake America the f*** up! Christ, Biden gets it! He basically just said Russia is going to invade. He did not mince words, unlike every other pundit and “expert” on the subject matter who keeps thinking there is some negotiated off-ramp waiting to happen. Look, Putin has already decided to invade; we’re just waiting for him to pull the trigger.
Look here, f***tards! I will repeat myself — again! If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it’s a f***ing G.D. duck, morons. Yet, I keep hearing these international and Russian “experts” on MSM providing justifications as to why what everyone is seeing could just be one large, prolonged feint (psych!) or a negotiating tactic, although negotiations have essentially stalled. These people are in wishful thinking mode. Fan-f***ing-tastic. International political analysis based on hope. He’s going to invade, morons! Putin has been adding more troops to surrounding Ukraine borders. He’s invaded Ukraine twice before — and he’s still there. He knows Biden is weak and America is divided. Putin also knows 40 percent of Americans love Russia more than America; those people are the traitor MAGA morons, RepubliKKKlans, and the Russian-lover traitor himself trump. Putin knows NATO and the EU are unwilling to defend Ukraine’s sovereignty in order to protect their own economic (energy) interests by extension. Not to mention the entire world has been weakened by COVID. This is Putin’s chance! It’s just so f***ing obvious, yet the world seems pretty intent on looking the other way. But, don’t worry, people. When it does happen then the Allies will wring their hands a bit and slap on more feckless sanctions. And then shrug their shoulders. After that, Ukraine will be on its own to resist becoming a satellite state of Russia, or should I say the U.S.S.R., which is Putin’s grander dream. Not to mention Putin literally believes Ukraine is still a part of Mother Russia that’s gone rogue. Mark my words, morons. It’s as plain as the nose on your face! We’re just going to let this happen when we should be bombing Putin and Russia into the stone age. I’ve had enough of Putin walking all over us!
