I had hoped that enough anti-vax RepubliKKKlans would die from Delta and Omicron to at least give Democrats an edge in the next mid-term elections, but despite the number of deaths and the high number of hospitalizations in red states, it seems that the death toll is not high enough to make a difference. Ideally, several hundred thousand reliable RepubliKKKlan voters would have to die in swing states and in key swing districts in red states to be impactful. If Omicron were only more deadly for the willingly unvaccinated. If only! Seems like Democrats can’t catch a break. Although, kicking anti-vaxxers out of hospital beds would be a good start. Let them die at home!
Of Course, He Did and They Would
According to Axios, “Former President Donald Trump endorsed Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán for re-election Monday, throwing his ‘complete support’ behind the nationalist leader. Orbán, a far-right, populist leader who says he’s turned Hungry into an ‘illiberal state,’ has changed election laws to benefit his party, the New York Times notes. It is Trump’s second endorsement of a world leader since leaving office. Last October, Trump endorsed Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro, another far-right leader accused of authoritarian tendencies.” And then from CNN, “Thirty-four percent of Americans think violent action against the government is sometimes justified, according to a new poll from The Washington Post and the University of Maryland released days ahead of the one-year anniversary of the insurrection at the US Capitol. The new figure ‘is considerably higher than in past polls by the Post or other major news organizations dating back more than two decades,’ according to the newspaper. The survey, conducted between December 17 and 19, revealed stark partisan splits on the question: 40% of Republicans and 41% of independents said violence against government is sometimes justified, compared to 23% of Democrats.”
First, of course, traitor trump is all in with the dictators. It’s nothing new, but he does go out of his way to signal to his base that he is a full-on straight WASP authoritarian. Second, it is becoming increasingly evident that his base is willing (and wanting) to engage in political violence (aka an insurrection) to bring traitor trump to authoritarian power and destroy America’s democracy. Look, morons. I guess I’ll keep repeating myself until it sinks in with the masses — which may be never — or until the worst comes to pass. The warning signs are blinking brighter and faster. The stars are aligning. Decades of RepubliKKKlan machinations are coming to fruition. And the fecklessness of dumbass Democrats cannot stop the runaway train that is the rise of American Fascism. The 40 percent of Americans who are not RepubliKKKlans, MAGA morons, QAnon, or evil evangelicals simply don’t care enough to save the country from the crazies. They just fail to show up to vote — every time. RepubliKKKlans always get away with it; they always get re-elected no matter how much they display their utter contempt for democracy. As I have said countless times before, Biden is merely the intermission to the end. Conservatives are primed and pumped to steal the next presidential election and make traitor trump the permanent president. I wouldn’t give Democratic and Independent voters enough credit to be passionate enough to fight to keep our democracy. They’re too consumed by Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, and all that nonsense. Oh, well. The end is coming; it’s just a few years away! Mark my words, morons. Welcome to stupid America.
Traitor [T]rump ‘Press Conference’
So, traitor trump makes his 6 January anniversary press conference official via an announcement. This is not new information as news outlets picked up on this story weeks ago, but I did not comment at the time. I should have since journalists were already questioning how to cover the press conference, which of course is an easy answer: They shouldn’t! But they will anyway. Once again, MSM will take part in the demise of America! Our democracy is dying with help from all sides. There is the direct assault from RepubliKKKlans. There is apathy and incompetence from dumbass Democrats who have no clue how to counter the enemy except with that hopey, changey wishful thinking B.S. And then there is the cheerleading from MSM who sees the death of democracy as profitable. Little do idiot journalists and MSM executives know that without democracy there will be no profits because there can be no income from an industry made illegal under a traitor trump dictatorship. There will be only one source of news and that is state TV (aka Faux News).
Listening to these MSM news anchors, journalists, pundits, and commentators struggle aloud on-air with how to cover the traitor trump press conference is infuriating. They automatically believe that anytime traitor trump speaks it is newsworthy. No! It! Is! Not! Morons! They already know that he’s going to stand in front of the nation to lie about what happened on 6 January 2021, so the question these MSM-types are struggling with is how to fact-check traitor trump’s lies in real-time. Hey! Here’s an idea for fact-checking. Don’t cover the f***ing press conference in the first place you f***tards! But whatever. The MSM will, no doubt, be falling all over themselves to get choice seating to best broadcast traitor trump’s propaganda and lies to America. Whatever! I give up! I expected nothing less from a stupid, stupid America. This is a country where 75 percent of RepubliKKKlans think Biden lost the election and is an illegitimate president, so MSM is going to spend 6 January 2022 amplifying the lie because they just have to cover traitor trump! When the moron snaps, they come running. Welcome to stupid America! We never learn.
Rittenhouse: America’s Future
From The Guardian, “A month after his acquittal on murder charges, Kyle Rittenhouse was given a standing ovation at a conservative conference in Phoenix on Monday night, as panelists discussed events in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in 2020, when the teen shot three men. The event, called AmericaFest, was held by Turning Point USA, a young conservatives group. As Rittenhouse took the stage, thousands of cheering fans chanted his name, along with his own theme song, adapted from his name. Hosts asked if any women in the crowd wanted to go on a date with Rittenhouse, prompting loud cheers. One audience member held a ‘Kiss me’ sign, according to one spectator. Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, praised Rittenhouse, telling him: ‘You’re a hero to millions, it’s an honor to be able to have you.’”
This is America’s future, morons! Dumbass Democrats need to wake the f*** up to the threat of conservatism! RepubliKKKlans, MAGA morons, and evil evangelicals are building up an army nation, f***tards. Christ-on-the-f***ing-Cross! How many f***ing times do I need to scream the obvious, yet it falls on deaf ears, and these images project onto blind eyes. Look, morons! Sure! There are many examples in America’s past demonstrating a radicalized segment of society that has come to nothing. Indeed, the German-American Bund was literally Nazism rooted in America. Of course, the Bund was a fringe party and was only 25,000-member strong. Today, MAGA morons, evil evangelicals, QAnon, RepubliKKKlans, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Three Percenters, et al. are no longer fringe; they are mainstream, and they wholely comprise one political party in a two-party system. These f***tards are a significant percentage of America — no longer wackos on the periphery of humanity. They are a rising minority, and the youth are embracing the violence, and the terror, as the pictures above evince. And do not think these are just stupid immature children. No, they are the offspring of parents who are themselves bigots. This entire mindset breeds like roaches.
While conservatives understand their future by embracing this faction of the population through events like those attended by Rittenhouse, the liberal side of the political spectrum does nothing except appeal to people’s better nature. OMG! We are so f***ed! We cannot meet this threat with “kindness” and “understanding.” The danger is real and can only be countered with the same kind of opposing radical force. This will not just go away, nor will the movement fizzle out. For years it has only been getting worse. I have said before that America is headed for a new civil war. The problem is that the conservatives are already at war, and they are building infrastructure (state laws), recruiting people (especially youth), and stockpiling weapons (weapons) as if the war has already been engaged and they are losing. Progressives, on the other hand, are still picking flowers and hoping. Ugh! Oh, well. I’ve read this history many times before, and I know how it ends — the fall of a nation! Welcome to stupid America!
BBB: DOA
Allow me to quote myself, “As for Biden’s agenda, it’s toast. … Back Better legislation is dead on arrival. There is no other way for Manchin to interrupt Democrats’ massive losses last night as anything other than a signal to put the breaks on everything. Don’t forget that Manchin is perfectly fine with not passing anything else related to Biden’s BBB agenda. So, dumbass Democrats will continue with their infighting and the legislation will collapse.” Manchin finally confirmed that which I have been saying for months now,” ‘And I cannot vote to continue with this piece of legislation. I just can’t. I’ve tried everything humanly possible. I can’t get there.’” Predicting Democrats’ political incompetence and failure is becoming too easy. I will admit that I was only half right because I had originally predicted the infrastructure bill would not pass as well, but it did. And Biden is reaping huge political benefits from its passage into law as his job approval numbers skyrocket! Oh, wait. I am reading those numbers backward. Nevermind. Silly me.
There is one thing Manchin has been correctly saying from the start: If Democrats want to pass Biden’s social agenda, then they need to elect more Democratic Senators. Bingo! Bingo! Bingo! How is it that DINO Manchin understands the political reality of the Democratic Party better than leadership and Biden? How is that possible? I should not be all that surprised. Dumbass Democrats constantly misjudge everything about the political environment. It is a wonder they actually win at all. For some reason, dumbass Democrats seem to think a 50-50 Senate and a much-reduced margin in the House equates to a mandate by the people for Biden’s agenda. It’s not, truly! (And as an aside, something that drives me completely bonkers is that Democrats can’t even recognize the fact that technically they only have 48 Democratic Senators — aka not a majority! This party acts like they’re playing while ahead when, in fact, they are always — and have always been — behind!) Biden’s win was more of an anti-traitor trump movement.
That is not to say I am or have been against the BBB legislation, but I understood the political reality from the start: There were simply not enough votes, no matter how the plan was crafted. Some components of the bill would piss off liberals, and other parts would piss off moderates. There was never going to be a way to square the circle. Biden should have spent his first year tackling the BIF bill and some smaller aspects of the BBB agenda (e.g., drug pricing or medicare hearing benefits). Biden should have been preaching — and must start now — that he needs more Democrats in the House and Senate. He may have won, but it is not enough. More needs to be done before he can begin to pass his agenda. He should have been saying this from day one. All of them should have been saying this. But, no! Dumbass Democrats believed — and wrongly misled their voting base to believe — that they won and “we got this.” And look what happened. Democrats come off as incompetent, feckless, and having wasted an entire year proving they can’t get much done. They set themselves up for failure, and they proved it! The only people who failed to understand where Machin stood on BBB over the last 5-6 months are Democrats! Honestly, he has been telegraphing his intentions from the beginning, and shame on Democrats for not seeing that, no matter what he said privately. Believe what people do, not what they say! This is reading people 101. Ugh! This is how Democrats usher in permanent RepubliKKKlan power. Welcome to stupid America!
Eh, People Don’t Care, so Let Democracy Die, Already! I’m Tired of Waiting!
From CNN, “Democratic governors are facing a messaging conundrum: they say American democracy may hinge on their elections in 2022, but they’re not sure they can get most voters to care. Attempts to meddle with the certification of the Electoral College count and the partisan takeovers of the voting infrastructure don’t seem to be front of mind for an electorate drained by nearly two years of pandemic living and a creeping sense of economic panic, and that worries a range of Democratic governors … Several Democratic governors who were in office in 2020 played significant roles in staving off attempts to stir up challenges around the Electoral College certification. The fear is that GOP governors in states with GOP-controlled legislatures will work together to change the electoral rules, potentially adding to the chaos and confusion about reporting electoral votes out of their capitals, regardless of who wins the next presidential election. In backing candidates who question the results of the 2020 election, Trump and his allies seem to be trying to lay the groundwork for an election infrastructure that could be more favorable to future attempts to overturn the outcome.”
And this from Vox, “Experts on democracy warn that America is sleepwalking toward a disaster, a situation where the electoral playing field is so tilted in the GOP’s favor that America’s people no longer have a meaningful voice in who rules them. ‘We’ll wake up one day, and it’ll become clear that Democrats can’t win,’ says Tom Pepinsky, a political scientist at Cornell University. … Many elite Democrats are fully aware of the problem. Some, like Sen. Raphael Warnock (GA) and the activist group Indivisible, have worked to try to sound the alarm. But at the very highest levels of the party, democracy has become something of a side issue rather than a top priority. … Republicans, at both the elite and mass public level, are actively organizing against democracy — with largely ineffectual pushback from Democratic elites and partisans. There is no evidence of a mass movement to save democracy in America today.”
Add to this my recent post, and the trend is clear. No one — especially dumbass Democrats — cares that America’s democracy is dying. So, whatever. I can only b*tch for so long. Rip the band-aid off quickly already. I’d rather have one swift coup de grâce than this insufferable drip, drip, drip where nobody sees democracy slipping around them, or they do see yet react with an “eh” and a ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Sixty percent of Americans are going to wake up one day with their most cherished freedoms and way of life annulled. Then, all of a sudden, they will care, but it’ll be too late. Welcome to stupid America!
Human Turtle Checkmates Democrats
America avoids default, but McConnell won the battle and soon to be the war as The Hill writes, “The Senate on Thursday voted to approve a one-time exemption to the filibuster on raising the debt ceiling, capping off a months-long fight over the nation’s borrowing limit.” At the time, I was perplexed why McConnell backed down from his threat not to help Democrats avoid default last October. It made no sense to me from a man who has spent his career destroying Senate norms and the country in the process. Allowing the nation to default on its debt would merely be one more step toward that end while he could blame Democrats, and dumbass Democrats would take the blame because Americans are too stupid to understand the machinations of the opposition party and the workings of government, although they like to b*tch about it as if they did understand. Voters still believe that since Democrats only technically control the White House and both chambers of Congress then they somehow have total control. (They don’t!) But I digress.
Then it occurred to me, belatedly, as other news has dominated over the last week. This was McConnell’s masterstroke, and I promise what he allowed to happen will come back to bit dumbass Democrats in the ass because I also promise they have missed this point! What is the point, you may be asking? Democrats made a carve-out to suspend the filibuster. This is the same process dumbass Democrats have been reluctant to exercise to pass every other piece of important legislation. Curiously, has anybody noticed McConnell’s silence on changing the Senate rules to suspend the filibuster to raise the debt ceiling? Whereas McConnell warned Democrats not to tamper with the filibuster when it comes to voting rights legislation, among others, he nodded his approval in the case of the debt ceiling. Do you really think this was out of the goodness of his heart? His concern for America’s economy? No! This is a strategic move more than anything. Democrats have now set the precedent to suspend the filibuster rule to pass legislation! And once RepubliKKKlans retake the White House and Congress, McConnell will use this precedent to suspend the filibuster for all manner of legislation while arguing because the Democrats did it then he can too. And I promise that dumbass Democrats are completely clueless about the set of circumstances they have unleashed. They probably think McConnell is a man of honor. This only reinforces what I have been saying about the weak Democratic Party: Once they broke the filibuster rule cherry then they would be too feckless to actually use it. This is a perfect case in point. While dumbass Democrats believe this was a one-time exception to prevent America from defaulting on its debt, RepubliKKKlans see this as the open door for which they have been waiting! Therein lies thier victory! Congratulations RepubliKKKlans! The country will be completely yours after the 2024 elections and democracy will be officially dead. Welcome to stupid America! The end!
One Poll That Says It All
The poll results above show that the case is closed! American democracy is dead and dumbass Democrats, with their apathy, are helping RepubliKKKlans to kill it. I have seen no other poll results evince more alarm than the ones above. I should not be surprised, for the numbers only reinforce that which I have been saying for many months now. Dumbass Democrats just don’t get it and they don’t care. Their apathy and blindness are killing the country, and Democrats leaderships’ failure to stir the anger and fear of their base is also to blame. How the f*** can we ever hope to save our country when most Democrats think our democracy is not under attack? Tell me! How? How can the “nothing to see here” party ever hope to retain power if the bedazzled Democratic masses believe the ongoing RepubliKKKlan coup is nothing more than a test? Or worse still — over! One can see how and why RepubliKKKlans are going to steal the next election; they think their version of “American democracy” is under threat, and if I thought my version of democracy was under attack (which it is) then I would be up in arms too. But what political force do we have to counter RepubliKKKlans? Democrats! Democrats who think everything is fine. I can’t. I just f***ing can’t with the stupid and the apathy and the blindness. As I have said at almost every chance I get — RepubliKKKlans are killing our country and dumbass Democrats are letting them do it. Oh, well. I give up. The stupid runs deep and cannot be reversed. Welcome to stupid America!
No FEMA for You!
Climate change strikes again across parts of climate-change-denying U.S.A. A record number of tornados destroy large swaths of land and property over Midwestern and Southern states in December. Small towns and farms will be left devastated. Of course, we all know want kind of politics permeates these areas. It is the same mentality that wants the government out of their lives, especially the federal government, and to that I say: Abso-f***ing-lutely! I have said this before and I’ll say it again. People should live the way they vote. So, for all those f***tard RepubliKKKlans and MAGA morons out there, I say you get no federal help. No help from FEMA, no low-interest federal loans, no emergency assistance or housing from the federal government. You people who keep b*tching about the intrusiveness of the federal government are always the first ones with their hands out — Rand Paul who wrote a letter to Biden begging for some of that socialism! Naturally! Give me! Give me! Give me! I can’t take the stupid anymore! I say, if you voted for any RepubliKKKlan in the last election or traitor trump at any time, then f*** you! Go die as far as I’m concerned. I’ll even offer to give you a rebate of any federal tax dollars you feel that have been spent on helping “other” people in times of emergency because I promise you the amount of your “refund” will pale in comparison to the amount of money the rich blue states will send to parts of these poor red states to help you through this climate change event. It never f***ing fails! It’s always the giving rich blue states subsidizing the taker red states! To you conservatives who tout relying on your fellow neighbors for help in times of tragedy, I say fine. Please, by all means, look to your neighbors whose houses have been destroyed to help you with your destroyed house. Sure, go ahead. I am sure one collectively destroyed community will figure it out without help from the outside. Conservatives always preach that people should pick themselves up by their bootstraps and the Lord helps those who help themselves. So, good luck with that! I don’t want to help you, and I don’t want my tax dollars helping such RepubliKKKlan and MAGA moron ingrates!
Federal Court of Appeals Warns America but No One Is Listening or Cares
In the closing paragraph of the opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit they write, “Benjamin Franklin said, at the founding, that we have ‘[a] Republic’ — ‘if [we] can keep it.’ The events of January 6th exposed the fragility of those democratic institutions and traditions that we had perhaps come to take for granted. In response, the President of the United States and Congress have each made the judgment that access to this subset of presidential communication records is necessary to address a matter of great constitutional moment for the Republic. Former President Trump has given this court no legal reason to cast aside President Biden’s assessment of the Executive Branch interests at stake, or to create a separation of powers conflict that the Political Branches have avoided.” This quote from Franklin has been often referenced as of late for obvious reasons — America’s democracy is dying! It is even more striking that an appeals court found it worthy — nay, urgently necessary — to include such words, perhaps as a reminder of the current, dangerous state of our democracy. Now, if only the rest of stupid America understood the danger. I expected nothing less from morons of America who apparently just don’t care — witness Virginia’s last election results. RepubliKKKlans, led by traitor trump and the MAGA moron mob, are killing America’s democracy, and what do voters do? Reward them with electoral wins. I know they say all politics is local, but f***ing hell! Seriously, people. Just for f***ing once can you f***tards take a grander perspective to recognize giving RepubliKKKlans power at any level destroys America everywhere. Oh, well. I give up. This level of stupid cannot be reversed. I have to keep reminding myself of that fact. This case goes to SCOTUS next and we all know most of the justices sitting on that panel love the idea of authoritarian rule; they love the notion of a unitary executive (read: imperial presidency), but not when a Democrat is sitting in the White House in which case the unitary executive deference reverts to the prior guy! The backsliding cannot be stopped and these ephemeral judicial wins are merely bumps in the road to the dead-end that is autocracy. Welcome to stupid America — too stupid for democracy!
