It’s a Win / Win / Win for RepubliKKKlans!

Now that the Florida legislature rammed through a bill to strip Disney of its self-governing status, a question of bond liability arises. As Bloomberg writes, “Under current Florida statutes, the debts and assets of a special district that is dissolved are passed to the municipal government that takes over. Some Democratic Senators wondered if the move could ultimately transfer debt incurred by Disney to the small cities of Bay Lake and Lake Buena Vista, in addition to the governments of Orange and Osceola counties.” Guess which counties are Democratic strongholds in central Florida? Yes, you guessed it! Orange and Osceola! Once again, RepubliKKKlans find themselves in a win/win/win situation as dumbass Democrats can only stand by a watch.

Checkmate for DeSantis — again! He’s been able to punish the LGBTQ community, Disney, and Democratic taxpayers who voted for Biden all at once! Fan-f***ing-tastic! I’m getting really, really sick of dumbass Democrats being outplayed at every turn. And for those of you who think lawsuits are going to stop any of this, then keep dreaming, f***tards! The Florida Supreme Court is a puppet of DeSantis! Oh, well. Get ready for dictator DeSantis as vice-president to traitor trump! Welcome to stupid America! No one cares because the gays! And gas prices!

It’s Chauncey DeVega Time!

This man is a genius! He is one of the most trenchant minds I read regularly. His most recent article on Salon elucidates the MSM incompetence and cheerleading of America into fascism. Don’t forget, morons, that fascism requires a compliant and wholly-owned media, and the MSM is more than willing to sell American democracy for 30 pieces of silver.

DeVega writes, “The Republican fascists are leading a revolutionary movement. The news media, with its outmoded tools and assumptions, is largely unable to comprehend such a force. For many in the news media, access is more important than truth-telling. The powerful cannot be trusted to police themselves, and also cannot be trusted to admit when a societal institution is in crisis because they are dependent on that institution for meaning, prestige, authority and resources. … Right-wing propagandists who do the work of the Republican-fascists and larger white right represent a particular type of danger and threat to American democracy. But perhaps just as dangerous are the professional centrists and hope-peddlers who keep telling the American people — in the face of the preponderance of the evidence and common sense — that somehow everything will be OK.”

I am not going to comment too much because DeVega says it all better than I could, but suffice it to say, I wholeheartedly agree with his assessment that “hope-peddlers” (e.g., dumbass Democrats, CNN, and MSNBC) are just as much of a problem. This is why I keep saying that RepubliKKKlans will destroy our democracy and Democrats will watch. Oh, well! Welcome to stupid America!

American Snowflakes

According to The Daily Beast, “On Monday, Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Florida threw out the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s mask mandate for air travel and other forms of mass transportation. Deaths from COVID-19—and the mask mandates intended to prevent them—may be on the wane nationwide, but whatever you think about such policies, this is the latest and most egregious example of a judge acting as a partisan warrior in the COVID-19 culture wars. … Now she is substituting her opinion for that of scientific professionals at the CDC, and dictating health policy in America. The outcome could be disastrous, only serving to further embolden the right-wing activists who dispute the reality of this horrifically lethal pandemic. … The CDC first issued a public health order requiring masks in interstate transportation and at transit hubs in February 2021, and it didn’t take long for anti-mask diehards to make getting on a plane or train a nerve-wracking proposition. Still, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) issued security directives to enforce the CDC order, and the CDC and TSA have extended that mandate throughout the pandemic. Just last week, the CDC extended the mandate for 15 days, until May 3. … Judge Mizelle says that enforcing such a mandate is akin to ‘detention and quarantine,’ which she claims is beyond CDC’s remit. Really? [Truly!] The CDC operates under what has long been called the ‘quarantine regulations.’ The statute in question—the Public Health Services Act—has been in use since 1948, and was designed to prevent interstate and international transmission of dangerous infectious diseases. … Rogue judges, at one time or another, have neutered virtually every major COVID-19 risk mitigation order issued by the Biden administration. But if this order can be nullified, there is literally nothing the CDC or the federal government could do to fight COVID-19. Even worse, the ruling may serve to handcuff the CDC when the next health crisis hits. The agency may become gun-shy, afraid to exercise even the most urgently needed public health powers, and conservative activists who have long made headlines for travel crimes and misconduct will feel vindicated [emphasis added].”

Snowflakes always win! Anti-vaxxers always win! Anti-maskers always win! RepubliKKKlans and MAGA morons always win! The stupid always wins! The Biden administration cannot let this ruling stand; it must be adjudicated before SCOTUS, which has ironically been upholding some federal regulations regarding COVID. (Normally, I would pursue a tirade about how Biden would let this ruling by a MAGA moron judge go unchallenged, but he is a wartime president, so I’ll refrain.) But whatever! Nothing matters anymore because America is a bunch of whiney f***ing G.D. selfish b*tchy snowflakes who are incapable of doing the minimally required actions to control the virus and help others. If and when COVID comes roaring back, then the public will be unwilling to do anything or follow any regulations to mitigate the pandemic’s spread because America is stupid, and judges are literally substituting their conservative biases for CDC directives. Americans think they are done with the virus, but I promise — the virus is not done with you! Apparently, there are large swaths of the public that the virus has yet to eliminate from the planet; perhaps a silver lining behind this judge’s ruling is the hastening of the end of these people. Welcome to stupid America! Eh, I expected nothing less!

‘Where they burn books, they will also ultimately burn people’

A quote from Heinrich Heine, one of Germany’s greatest poets, who was of Jewish origin. Enough said. According to The Hill, “During the meeting, board member Rabih Abuismail suggested the board approve a library audit in all district schools to review what books are made available. Fellow member Kirk Twigg suggested that books deemed offensive be kept ‘in the back’ where parents can still examine them. However, Abuismail said he ‘didn’t even want to see them,’ adding ‘I think they should be thrown in a fire.’”

This! In a state that just elected a RepubliKKKlan governor who will make discrimination and hate cool and legal again. It’s coming, morons. Mark my words! Fascism (aka MAGA) is taking hold in America, and dumbass Democrats are powerless to stop it because they are blind and incompetent. I have no idea what is more infuriating: Watching the march of fascism take over America or Democrats fumbling around trying — and failing — to save America’s democracy. We! Are! F***ed! Welcome to stupid America!

Texas: A Sh*thole State and America’s Future!

According to CNN, “A new pro-gun law in Texas that went into effect Wednesday allows most Texans who legally own a firearm to carry it openly in public without obtaining a permit or training, a measure that experts say will make it more challenging for law enforcement to protect the public from gun violence.”

Texas just passed a law to make voting in the most difficult-to-vote-in state even more difficult. They passed a law that made abortions illegal and vigilante justice legal. Last, they just passed a law that effectively turns the state into the wild, wild west of guns. And this state just increased its number of electoral college seats by two. The second most populous state has essentially become the anti-woman, gun-loving nutjob, vote-hating, vigilante-condoning, anti-science conservative bastion that RepubliKKKlans have long desired. Texas is a sh*thole state and the future of America. And no one cares. Do not think that there will be blowback for this anti-abortion Texas law because the state has been passing anti-woman laws for over a decade, and what has the electorate (Democrats and Independents) done to stop them? Um, not a G.D. thing. RepubliKKKlans are just as firmly in control of the state as they were since the last time a Democrat was governor — 1994. Slowly but surely, the minority political power class has been exerting its control over the majority, and the majority allows it to happen, year after year. So, no! There will be no blowback from the voters because, deep down instead, this was all foreseeable, and they did nothing. Plus, more generally, America is just too m*****f***ing G.D. stupid to care or vote. This is what America wants because nothing is changing for the better; it’s only getting worse — faster. This is what a dying democracy looks like — it’s the tyranny of the minority over the majority in the image of its puritanical Christian religiosity! Mark my words, morons! Welcome to stupid America. Your state is next to become the next sh*thole!

Roe v. Wade Ended Yesterday: Oh, Well

From The Hill, “A Texas bill banning virtually all abortions after a heartbeat is detected, which can occur in as few as six weeks, went into effect at midnight on Wednesday after the Supreme Court did not move to block it.” So, effectively Roe v. Wade ended last night. It is pretty clear SCOTUS is signaling that it will strike down this 48-year-old legal precedent, and no one cares. Oh, well! I’ve written about this moment extensively, and I knew dumbass Democrats would be completely incompetent to mount a sustained fight to protect women’s rights. This is a long battle finally won by conservatives. Let the floodgates open because do not think the fight stops here for a second. Those who actually thought that abortion rights were ever about protecting life, then I have a bridge in New York I’d like to sell you. Conservatives have never cared about the fetus; the fight against Roe has always been about controlling women (Taliban-style). Now the law of the land that protected a woman’s right to control her own body has gone right out the window with little more than a whipper. (I have yet to hear an outraged Democrat on this news; they have pretty much capitulated — predictably.)

I just wrote about the SCOTUS “shadow docket,” which is a perfect example. By doing nothing, they have undone everything. Watch other conservative states follow suit with new laws similar to the Texas law, which is actually far more restrictive than the Mississippi abortion law that SCOTUS will be hearing at the start of the new term — next month. It is difficult to see how SCOTUS would allow a more restrictive Texas law to take effect but strike down the Mississippi law upon review. No, the Texas model is the new standard. This model is that the state itself will not criminally prosecute women; instead, the state will leave enforcement up to individual snitches to spy on and sue everyone around the woman receiving the abortion who may or may not be aiding and abetting her to exercise her constitutional right — see below. Indeed, Roe has effectively been killed by proxy!

But wait! There is more! Also, from The Hill, “The bill, in addition to prohibiting virtually all abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, allows most private citizens to file lawsuits against abortion providers if they have a suspicion that the provider infringed on the new policy.” So, here we have legalized (and incentivized!) citizen vigilantism against women. Not sure why a perfect stranger should be given legal standing to sue someone for helping what a woman does to her body — legally or illegally — that does not directly harm said perfect stranger. Yet, this is the law, and people are completely fine with that because America is becoming a totalitarian nation of f***tards who simply don’t care what happens anymore — state by state, law by law, politician by politician. As I said above, the fight will not stop. Next: Gay’s rights — all of them; other minorities’ rights; the rest of women’s rights; Democrats’ rights — yes, rights of the opposition party will become fair game. Mark my words. I have been saying that the perfect storm is already upon us. The stars have fully aligned for RepubliKKKlans to destroy America’s democracy. And best of all? No one f***ing cares. Dumbass Democrats will shrug — as they typically do — while wondering what went wrong. It’s all too late, morons. Oh, well. All these RepubliKKKlans will get re-elected like clockwork! And there will be more losses for Democrats to come because they are weak and pathetic. RepubliKKKlans are railroading Democrats because they can. Welcome to stupid America! The country is finished, and they’re coming for your rights next!

SCOTUS Finally Speaks: F*** Women and Their Rights!

I quote (at length) the Great Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, Sotomayor, who makes the point why five conservative justices determined the fate of half the population with barely a concern: “The Court’s order is stunning. Presented with an application to enjoin a flagrantly unconstitutional law engineered to prohibit women from exercising their constitutional rights and evade judicial scrutiny, a majority of justices have opted to bury their heads in the sand. Last night, the Court silently acquiesced in a State’s enactment of a law that flouts nearly 50 years of federal precedents. Today, the Court belatedly explains that it declined to grant relief because of procedural complexities of the State’s own invention. Ante, at 1. Because the Court’s failure to act rewards tactics designed to avoid judicial review and inflicts significant harm on the applicants and on women seeking abortions in Texas, I dissent. … In effect, the Texas Legislature has deputized the State’s citizens as bounty hunters, offering them cash prizes for civilly prosecuting their neighbors’ medical procedures. … Taken together, the Act is a breathtaking act of defiance—of the Constitution, of this Court’s precedents, and of the rights of women seeking abortions throughout Texas. … It cannot be the case that a State can evade federal judicial scrutiny by outsourcing the enforcement of unconstitutional laws to its citizenry. … The Court should not be so content to ignore its constitutional obligations to protect not only the rights of women, but also the sanctity of its precedents and of the rule of law.”

I add one final — and the most important — point made by the Great Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, Kagan, “And it [Court of Appeals opinion] barely bothers to explain its conclusion — that a challenge to an obviously unconstitutional abortion regulation backed by a wholly unprecedented enforcement scheme is unlikely to prevail.” Bingo! Bingo! And bingo! The conservative SCOTUS justices agreed with that “reasoning.” And there it is in a nutshell. Sotomayor argues that the sole intention of the Texas law is to outlaw abortions, and Kagan pithily calls out the moral turpitude of the conservative justices’ decision not to enjoin the law because somehow they think the legal case against a clearly unconstitutional law is not likely to succeed. Case closed. Roe is dead! Never mind, most people across the country and within the states don’t want Roe overturned. But whatever! I give up! The minority is ruling us, and people don’t care.

So, what comes next for the political left? Uproar? Marching? Mobilization? Organization? Rage? Revolution? Kill the filibuster? Vote? (God forbid!) Uh, none of the above. This has been years in the making. A slow-moving freight train has been rolling down the track toward a washed-out bridge. We knew this was coming at least three presidential election cycles ago, and still, dumbass Democrats, Liberals, and Progressives demonstrated complete insouciance to the notion that elections matter when it comes to SCOTUS. Apparently, elections only matter when it’s too late — traitor trump. Oh, well. This is the bed dumbass Democrats made for their lack of political urgency and ruthlessness. So, in short, we get what we deserve, and I don’t see SCOTUS’s latest actions being enough to shake Democrats (especially politicians) from their complacency. And that pusillanimous statement from Biden was so m*****f***ing G.D. infuriating. He will do everything to protect women’s rights and advocate for legislation. Really? Thanks for reiterating the obvious and espousing tactics that have been entirely worthless. In the end, he’ll do nothing. It’s all talk with Democrats and little meaningful action. At the very least, Biden must call Justice Breyer and tell him it’s time to retire. I don’t give one G.D. f*** if it’s inappropriate. It’s time to play f***ing hardball for once, but Democrats are incapable. I give up! The Democratic Party is completely pathetic and outmatched for today’s political environment. Get ready for a RepubliKKKlan Christian theocracy. We deserve the government we get because most people don’t care! Welcome to stupid America.

Brace for the Political Earthquake After Roe Is Overturned — Not!

I watched Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC last night, and he made an excellent point I had not considered previously. In essence, he stated that if Roe were to be reversed, then not much would change in the country. States where choice is protected would continue to allow abortions. Those populations would not be impacted. As for states with trigger laws or where abortions are already difficult to obtain, an already limited right will merely disappear. For instance, in Mississippi, which only has one abortion clinic in the entire state, what would be the material impact of that one clinic closing? They perform about 300 procedures per month, so the impact is not much in that state. In many states with highly restrictive laws, those citizens have already adapted to an abortion-limited environment, so there is not much difference in the next step to an abortion-free circumstance, especially if a nearby state provides legalized abortions. Considering the very small fraction of women who chose abortions compared to the rest of the female population, it is conceivable that the vast majority of women will wake up the day after Roe is abolished feeling that nothing has changed. (Unless, of course, you consider women waking up feeling like second-class citizens a change.) Then that begs the question: What would be the political fallout if SCOTUS scuttles Roe? Allow me to answer.

In short, nothing! I predicted the day RBG died that abortion would finally be overturned. At the time, I welcomed it because dumbass Democrats have been asleep at the wheel for decades when it comes to prioritizing the judiciary — and basically everything else that entails wielding political power. I believed that overturning Roe just might be the last straw to wake Democrats the f*** up. I wanted Roe to be the new rally cry — the spark of the next revolution for Democrats to get their f***ing act together and to start winning again. But who the f*** am I kidding? O’Donnell’s comment made me realize that if Roe is abolished, then the net effect on the ground would be nothing; there would be no blowback. There will be no enduring excitement or political will for Democrats to do something — anything. It hit me that dumbass Democrats are simply too f***ing G.D. weak to mobilize on this issue and every other issue, except maybe for the ACA. I mean, killing women’s abortion right has been a RepubliKKKlan freight train rolling inexorably down the tracks in slow motion for decades, and idiot Democrats still managed to get run over. So, why the f*** would I think that now is the moment for things to change? My own hope diluted me — the one feeling I deride for its worthlessness, yet I dared anyway. Shame on me! O’Donnell woke me up!

What will happen once Roe is gone? Oh, for sure, there will be the perfunctory outrage among women who have seen autonomy over their own bodies reversed. They will be rightly outraged that five men have taken away a half-century-old right to women’s liberty and medical privacy. Sure, there will be marches, consternation, and rage, but there will be no comeuppance for RepubliKKKlans. Why would there be? RepubliKKKlans and evil evangelicals have been advocating restricting women’s rights for decades. This has been a long time coming for women, and Democrats have done absolutely nothing to avoid what is about to come to pass. The traitor trump administration and the years leading up to it have created the perfect storm. I’ve written about this before, but allow me to repeat myself. Traitor trump was the capstone on judicial court-packing at the highest levels, which will take a generation before there is even a hope of starting to reverse the destruction. Add voter suppression and redistricting, wherein blue states lost and red states gained seats in the last census. The inevitable consequence? RepubliKKKlans will become more entrenched at the local, state, and federal levels. Again, RepubliKKKlans have been working at this for decades, whereas dumbass Democrats have been doing — well, I don’t know what they’ve been doing, except mostly losing. Hoping to win the presidency every four years is not a successful strategy to advance Democrats’ agenda.

Oh, and did I mention court-packing? (I did.) The political tactics that RepubliKKKlans have been employing to achieve permanent power will get the rubber stamp from a hard-right SCOTUS. I’m old enough to remember way back in 2013 when the conservative justices rolled back significant portions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. From that point, red states put their voter suppression efforts into overdrive, to great success. In short, the impenetrable circle of power is locked and completed in RepubliKKKlans’ favor. It won’t matter how many angry women show up to the ballot box, for RepubliKKKlans have all but certainly rigged the voting system in the right places to benefit themselves overwhelmingly and singularly. Whatever. There is nothing new here. We’re f***ed! Thanks, Democrats, for nothing. Truly! Welcome to stupid America, where one political party wants to rule by tyranny and the other likes to watch!

An Excuse to Legalize Everything on Guns

According to NPR: “Guns: when and how to regulate them. It’s one of the biggest issues across the country. But the Supreme Court has rarely weighed in on the issue. In modern times, it has ruled decisively just twice. And now, it’s on the brink of doing so again.” Now that SCOTUS is firmly conservative, get ready for a flood of test cases that the high court will take up to expand ridiculous gun rights. Get prepared for conservative justices to start ruling that any law that restricts any gun possession and its use at any moment and in any situation is unconstitutional. Mark my words, morons! This country is about to go full-on wild, wild West because America is just too f***ing G.D. stupid to do otherwise. Poll after poll evinces that the vast majority of people want gun control, but instead, we get more RepubliKKKlans elected to office that do nothing — in fact, they do the opposite of gun control — and America just takes it! Get used to it, idiots! It’s all stupid all the time. Welcome to trump stupid America!

Death Spiral of America: QAnon, Guns, and Idiocracy

According to a stunning article in The New York Times, “Mr. Jones said he was struck by the prevalence of QAnon’s adherents. Overlaying the share of poll respondents who expressed belief in its core principles over the country’s total population, ‘that’s more than 30 million people,’ he said. ‘Thinking about QAnon, if it were a religion, it would be as big as all white evangelical Protestants, or all white mainline Protestants,’ he added. ‘So it lines up there with a major religious group.’ He also noted the correlation between belief in QAnon’s fiction and the conviction that armed conflict would be necessary. ‘It’s one thing to say that most Americans laugh off these outlandish beliefs, but when you consider that these beliefs are linked to a kind of apocalyptic thinking and violence, then it becomes something quite different,’ he said.” Then add on top of that this: “A measure long sought by conservative activists allowing Texans to carry handguns without a license [i.e., training, background check if bought through a private transaction] is on the cusp of becoming law after the Texas Senate approved a compromise on the bill Monday, sending it to Gov. Greg Abbott. Abbott has said he would sign the permitless carry proposal into law.”

The Texas Tribune

Of course, RepubliKKKlans are passing a bill that the vast majority of Texans do not want, but what else is new? I say it every f***ing time: This nation is the tyranny of the minority over the majority, and no one cares. Whatever! And, of course, the reality of QAnon gaining prominence in America’s idiocracy coupled with ever-increasing lax gun laws is like the peanut butter and chocolate recipe for America’s demise. America deserves it! I have long said America is too stupid to survive, and now I am witnessing it in real (accelerated) time. One cannot possibly make up the headlines populating the pages of newspapers, newscasts, and websites, yet they are real. One may argue America has always had some level of “crazy,” and I would certainly agree. Still, this moment in history is significantly different because the QAnon kookery is the new religion, and guns are (another) epidemic in America, which is only getting worse and being facilitated by RepubliKKKlans, who are themselves being taken over by MAGA morons and QAnon. Sadly, these two facets of American culture are now primary drivers of American politics. Do you see the problem here? That is, my friends, the poison combination that is destroying America. And I am not being hyperbolic. America is too stupid to stop it. Who would have ever thought two ardent adherents of QAnon could be elected to Congress? Yet, it happened — twice! Just wait until the next Congress; there will be more. If 30 million morons (that’s 1 in 10 citizens!) believe the QAnon bat-sh*t craziness, then there is no reason that that 30 million should not be represented more fully in the next Congress, especially if f***tard RepubliKKKlan politicians run on a QAnon (or at least a not QAnon-denying) platform. This is a full-blown disease that is metastasizing and killing the nation. QAnon is not going anywhere, and people will be sorely mistaken to laugh it off as some sort of ephemeral aberration, for QAnon perfectly reflects the ethos of America’s stupidity, and now that it has reached religiosity status, America is truly, truly f***ed! Mark my words, f***tards. Stupid America loves the crazy, and they want these morons running the government! I guess people need to be entertained as America dies, and RepubliKKKlans are more than willing to oblige, knowing the re-incarnation of the nation will be for straight WASPs men only! Welcome to stupid America! Eh, I expected nothing less!
