Two-Faced Tulsi Gabbard Claims Obama Attempted a Coup - That's Her Story and She's Sticking to it!

Ominous rumblings from MAGA world have been recently reported. 

The Director of National Intelligence, Two-Faced Tulsi Gabbard (above right cartoon) says she gathered shocking evidence that ex-president Barrack Obama staged a coup in 2016 with Hillary Clinton's help. This ridiculous claim doesn't take into account Trump won. So, what's the beef?

The sky is falling...the sky is falling!" the duplicitous head of National Intelligence told Fox News, Newsmax, and every other alt-right propaganda platform on the planet.

Stirred by the explosive expose Republic Senator John Cornyn has called for a special council to immediately investigate the perfidious prior president and his friends, staff and family with utmost urgency. Sen. Cornyn told listeners that all he wanted was transparency in the dire matter after blocking an attempt to vote on the Epstein files.

Meanwhile...

in the real world 87% of Americans want transparency by seeing the Epstein files. 

They could give a shit about the obvious distraction involving one of the most popular presidents in the modern age. That won't stop Trump's desperate minions from going all out and appointing a special counsel whose mission will be to drag the investigation out and post glaringly false headlines about supposed progress. Anything to get attention off of their soiled leader.

Every time someone asks Trump about the Epstein files he points in the opposite direction and squeals squirrel! Squirrel!

While in Scotland (which cost American taxpayers a cool ten million) playing golf, Trump was looking at building another golf course there. Really important diplomatic stuff huh?

Not that Donny was running away from the scandal that just won't leave him alone. 

Reporters on the tarmac in Scotland asked him if he was in the Epstein files to which he replied, "No. No. No."

 It's like he doesn't realize that Pam Bondi told him he was in those sleezy files in May as reported by nearly every news outlet in America. The world knows that for God's sake and Trump still lied. Talk about gall! He is the Lord of Lies. Shame is not in his game.

The story within the story is how far will Trump go when all of his lies are exposed? When the world finds out he's a pedophile? Will he call out the military to personally protect himself? When all else fails will the malicious narcissist finally declare he is the law and dissolve Congress and any other agencies that might oppose him?

As it Stands, as we all know, there are no current limits, or guardrails, to prevent Trump from doing something really crazy if the Epstein expose blows up on him. Right now, the clock is clicking.

Big Shoutout to My Readers and the Talk of the Town

                                        Welcome!

Thank you if your new to this blog or one of my regular readers returning for a dose of Dave. I can't say how much it means to me to have you all here. This blog is a labor of love and isn't monetized. Period.

One of the things I'm proud of is the fact that I have an international readership. For example, in the last 63 days Brazil has led the top ten list of visitors. The United States is usually one of the top three countries. On any given day I have readers from at least 50 nations.

I want you all to know that I will always speak truth to power. No corporate CEOs or billionaires intimidate me. As long as America is free, I will continue to speak out against injustice. When the time comes - I pray it won't - I'll continue to stand up to the thugs assaulting our society and defy them to my last breath. I'm defying them right now.

Look at my Archives on the right of this page and you'll see 17 years of defiance. You'll also see comedy and parody in healthy doses. Sometimes I'll just pass on news, but most of the time I pass on views.

TALK OF THE TOWN

- The Epstein scandal continues to dominate social media, cable TV, and hundreds of newspapers and publications across the land. The bottom line is nothing will come out of it as Trump is holding all of the cards.

- Ozzy Osbourne, the frontman for Black Sabbath has died. My best friend and I saw the rock band perform in 1971 in LA. They played War Pigs if memory serves.

- An orange juice importer says Brazil tariffs will raise prices for American consumers. Trump put a ridiculous 50% tariff on Brazilian goods because "of the way Brazil has treated former President Bolsonaro." For the record Bolsonaro is going on trial for attempting a coup in Brazil's last election. Trump and Bolsonaro have been bosom buddies for years. Unlike Bolsonaro, Trump has never been tried for his attempt at a coup on Jan. 6, 2021. That doesn't say much for the USA.

- Trump banned a Wall Street Journal reporter from joining the press crew on a visit to Scotland because the publication ran a story that embarrassed him. In a hissy fit he filed a $10 million dollar libel lawsuit against Rupert Murdock, the Journal's owner. Murdock basically flipped him the finger and said, "bring it on!"

- Florida is not only full of Trumpies (defined as mindless idiots) but it's become hell on earth from an environmental standpoint. The hurricane risk is escalating every year, and home insurance is now almost impossible to get. Throw in a governor who hates liberals, blacks, browns, and the gay community, for good measure and it's become paradise lost!

- How about some good news? Scientists looked at the genes of millions of people to determine which ones are linked to obesity - and developed a way to screen people before age 5. The study was published in the journal Nature Medicine, and there were more than 600 researchers from around the world involved using the data of 5 million people. This could be a big breakthrough for fighting obesity. Especially in America.

As it Stands, I wish you good health and happy days!

Trump's Bully Pulpit 2.0 Has Been Successful ...So Far

All the child locks in the White House that were in place during Trump 1.0 are gone. 

No more sane generals. No more resistance from Congress. 

No more ethics agencies. Every important position in government from cabinet members to agency heads grovel daily at Trump's stinking feet and swollen ankles.

The gloves are off Trump's tiny hands and he's taking full advantage of the power that he's gathered with the help of billionaires and is running over our democracy like Godzilla stomping through the heart of America. Boundaries don't apply to our dictator dancing to "YMCA " as he stripes away state's rights and deports thousands of immigrants without due process.

Trump's assault upon the freedom of press has been devastating as Americans increasingly have to guess whether an article, streaming story online, or TV is telling the truth. Ethical Journalism is drowning in a sea of disinformation by Trumpies only concerned with furthering "The Bosses" agenda. 

Like an orange octopus Trump is wrapping his tentacles around private businesses, colleges, and state governments in an ever-tightening grasp. 

Is this the end of our 250-year republic? Is democracy dead? 

The answer is no. And no.

America has faced worse crises in the past. Remember the Civil War? I could give you a dozen examples, but I highly recommend checking out a book on American history. You might be surprised at what we've survived.

Right now, we're dealing with a malicious narcissist with the IQ of a 6-year-old boy who was dropped on his head too many times. 

He's having fun going after all of his enemies with the power of the presidency behind him. He's intimidating colleges and telling them what not to teach. And all the while he has the biggest grift in his life going on that's bringing him billions of dollars from other countries trying to gain his official approval.

Fun times. No doubt. But, as the pundits often say, "nothing is forever."

For starters, the Epstein scandal is giving Donny fits. His base turning on him was so unexpected that he lashed out at them for wanting to have the secret files released. All of them, not like last time when his MAGA influencers were given cute little white notebooks full of public knowledge about the infamous pedophile. So now there's a lot of really pissed-off MAGA minions and no one can predict how much that will eventually hurt Donny.

Democrats are slowly trying to unite under their mutual hatred for Trump. The American people are going to keep protesting against Trump's corruption and his attempts to take their freedoms away. While there's no clear leaders for president just yet, there's still time for candidates to step forward in the next few years. The democratic party has to be in step with what Americans want and need right now.

As Trump's vile attacks on Medicare and SNAP reverberates throughout the country there's going to a growing population of voters who want their freedoms. They'll be the backbone of the party demanding change and restoration of the rule of law.

So many bad things can happen to Trump and the Republican party in the next three years that it's hard not to believe they'll be toxic at the polls in 2026.

As it Stands, despite the daily depredations against our society by Trump and his cult I believe the American people are going to have a great awakening in the days, weeks, months, and years ahead.
