Trump's Road to Isolating America

It's been a long and twisting road these last ten months. Trump is well on his way to isolating America and creating an autocratic racist nation.

His latest move to mug America is calling for a "permanent pause" on immigration from what he called "third world countries." Trumps demanding a program of "reverse migration" after the National Guard shooting in Washington D.C.

If there's been one constant crusade in Trump's political life, it's been kicking people out of the United States because of their color, religion, and place of origin. From Day One he promised a massive campaign against immigrants. It's been the cornerstone of his racist messaging. 

Surging military troops into American cities under a false pretense (that's been challenged dozens of times in the last ten months by the courts) has caused chaos across the nation. This latest event, an attack against two national guards in Washington D.C. would never have happened if Trump didn't involve the National Guard and the military in a scheme to intimidate civilians and assert complete control of states.

Officials say the man who shot the two troopers was an Afghan national who worked with a CIA-backed group during the war in Afghanistan. He was also vetted for asylum by the Trump regime back in April. In his typical finger-pointing diversion tactic Trump has blamed Biden for the deadly shooting that's left one trooper dead and the other in critical condition.

The incident has served as a catalyst for his anti-immigration rhetoric into pledges that would likely face court challenges if enacted and further undermine American's global standing as a nation welcoming to immigrants.

Promising to permanently pause migration from all Third World countries Trump also pledged to "terminate" all of the immigrants that arrived during Biden's administration. No one knows what countries the orange tyrant is going to put on his nasty little list.

The Department of Homeland Security pointed out that there are 19 countries listed in a travel ban in June, mainly in Africa and the Middle East, that will likely be on Trump's latest list. In one of his recent rants on Truth Social he threatened to "end all federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our country" and to "denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic security."

When you consider how much Trump has already broken traditional ties with our allies across the globe a clear picture emerges from the chaos... Trump is isolating America by slapping unfair tariffs on every country in the world, siding with Putin, and treating all immigrants like their criminals. 

The results are already apparent as tourism is way down from prior years. Citizens from other countries are aware that we have a paramilitary group called ICE that uses Gestapo-like methods to round up people of color.

When Trump talks about America First, he's actually referring to an authoritarian regime that favors White Christian Nationalists that are his loyal cult members.

For the record, Trump's threats, if enacted by legislation or executive orders, are going to be challenged in the courts who have, thus far, ruled against Trump 93% of the time. Meanwhile it's going to be a long and ugly fight.

As it Stands, Americans can put up barriers on Trump's road to isolation and an authoritarian regime, by turning to the courts and voting blue next November.

Thanksgiving in 2025 America: Pardoning Turkeys and Criminals

In the holiday spirit of the season Trump pardoned two turkeys, Waddle and Gobble, who were illegal immigrants from El Salvador.

It must be noted however that he said Waddle and Gobble looked violent to him, but their bribe was acceptable. 

The pardoning ceremony was public unlike the other 142 pardons that Trump has granted since January.

Unlike past presidential pardons that had to be vetted before bringing them up to the president, Trump has skipped the formalities and has been pardoning criminals at a rapid rate.

The White House has been turned into a pardon bureau that personally profits Trump who accepts only the bigly bribes or Quid-pro-quo offerings in exchange for a pardon.

Here's just one example of a corrupt player buying his way to freedom or clemency; in mid-October Trump handed a full and unconditional pardon to Changpeng Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, who pleaded guilty to money laundering charges.

Here's the kicker; Binance has ties to the Trump family's cryptocurrency business. We also know that Trump is concealing his scheme when he lied to 60 Minutes in an interview that he didn't know who Zhao was. That's a sure sign he's hiding something.

It was apparent on Day One of Trump's second term that politics were going to be crucial in the pardoning process when Trump pardoned some 1,500 defendants for taking part in his attempted coup. 

But Trump is also one of the biggest con men in American history and conducting shady and illegal business transactions are in his DNA.

The founders envisioned impeachment as one check on what is otherwise a nearly absolute presidential power, but Trump has faced virtually no criticism from the GOP cowards in Congress for his questionable use of pardons for profit or political gain.

As it Stands, I won't be posting anything on Thanksgiving Day because I'll be too busy visiting with family. I wish you a great day and a future without Trump.

Trump's Latest Absurd Accusations May Have Crossed a Red Line

It's common knowledge that Trump is a serial liar. 

You can go online and check out websites that document how many lies he tells daily, how many lies he's told in his second term, and how many lies he told in his first term.

Trump has been making unfounded accusations against his perceived enemies since he slunk back into the Oval Office in January. His list is a who's who of the Democratic party and he's been targeting the mainstream media with impunity.

When our thin-skinned tyrant turned his wrath against six Democratics for telling members of the military and the intelligence community not to comply with illegal orders from his regime, he crapped his diaper and ordered them arrested and tried for treason. Then executed.

A bipartisan uproar has resulted over his "seditious behavior" and "punishable by death" remarks he made. The six Democrats named are currently having their lives threatened by rabid Trump supporters.

They are Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona; Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan; Reps. Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New York, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Jason Crow of Colorado. All are military veterans and former intelligence officials.

When Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth rushed to retaliate against the six's message - on Trump's behalf - he was only able to hassle one member of the group because they didn't fall under the Department of War jurisdiction. However, Mark Kelly is still subject to the UCMJ according to Hegseth.

Trump's loyal liar-in-arms Hegseth is talking like a tough guy proclaiming he's going to start court martial proceedings or administrative measures against the seditious Sen. Kelly.

--------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: Late breaking development. The FBI is working to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers. The details are still unclear. Justice Department guidelines require investigative steps against sitting members of Congress to go through an approval process to ensure that enforcement power isn't being used for political purposes.

But Trump has dismantled the DOJ's Public Integrity Section, which traditionally served as a check on investigations into political figures. That office has just two prosecutors, down from 36 at the beginning of trump's second term.

---------------------------------------------

To be clear, Kelly and the others encouraged members of the military (see video) to OBEY lawful orders and to disobey unlawful orders. That's not a crime in anyone's book... but it is in Trump's book of anarchy. 

This latest dangerous lie about Kelly and the other five, is a decisive moment. "Trump is trying to incite violence, intimidate, and punish those who speak up to hold him accountable" Sen. Slotkin told the press. 

How far will this farce go? It remains to be seen what kind of pushback will come from Republicans who are increasingly becoming wary of Trump's spurious attacks on American civilians and members of the military.

It's becoming increasingly hard for Trump to go after his enemies as he continues to lose in the courts. This last week both the James Comey and Letitia James trial sagas resulted in exoneration when the judge found out that the government illegally appointed a prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan, to her position.

In the last two weeks there's been over 12 court cases that have gone against the Trump regime, most of which were immigrant related and involved ICE, The Department of Justice, and The Depart of Homeland Security.

This latest assault against justice by Trump may have crossed a red line. No one is fooled by Hegseth's sudden attack on Kelly or the other five by the FBI. It's part of Trump's playbook that's increasingly falling apart.

As it Stands, as we watch, Trump is physically and mentally falling apart, and more people are now seeing the emperor has no clothes.

American Psychiatric Association Announces New Litmus Test for Crazies

Let's face it. 

It's not easy to tell who's crazy by just looking at them.

Especially nowadays when people run around wearing political cosplay costumes like Kristi Noem.

The only way to fully determine if someone is short a couple of bottles of a six-pack is to ask them some basic questions.

After seeking advice from the American Psychiatric Association, they shared an updated litmus test that I'm now going to share with you.

Some core questions to ask:

1. Who was elected president in 2020?

This is one of the quickest and most reliable ways of knowing if a person is a Maga dimwit.

2. Is Trump the son of God?

Be prepared to hear blasphemy if you ask this. It's a surefire way to judge just how crazy they are.

3. What year is it?

Sounds too easy, doesn't it? Well guess what? When they start talking about 2020 you caught them red-handed.

4. Should there be more gun safety laws?

Keep a good distance when you ask this question and wear a bullet-proof vest. A normal person wouldn't pull out an AR-15 to answer.

5. Is the earth round?

I know. Too easy. Crazies always feel strongly about their flat earth.

6. Describe what the American flag looks like.

If there's one thing a crazy enjoys its desecrating the national flag. A crazy will display numerous versions of the American flag with Trump's fat orange face surrounded with stars and stripes on it.

Once you've determined you are talking with a crazy here's some suggestions:

- Run in the opposite direction as fast as you can!

- Don't stop running

- Smile pleasantly and say "squirrel!" When they look. Run.

- Offer them a cheeseburger from McDonalds to go away.

- Back away slowly smiling stupidly (it soothes them) while looking for the quickest escape route.

- Agree with everything they say and even drool a little to put them at ease.

As it Stands, those savvy shrinks emphasized that humor was the best medicine and... defense!

It's Terribly True: The Constitution Didn't Plan on Someone Like Trump

The realization that the Constitution never counted on having such a corrupt president comes from Ty Cobb, former White House Lawyer in Trump's first term.

When a former crony who once defended Trump during an impeachment hearing in the House says he's "evil" then you have to pause... and consider the fact our country is facing a dilemma that our founders never considered would happen.

Our founders must have been naive when they constructed a constitution to live by without considering a lawless presidency by assuming only men of good character would be in charge of the country.

There is one alternative to challenging a poison presidency. It's called the 25th Amendment. Under Section 4: Involuntary Transfer of Power, the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet can send a written declaration to Congress stating the President is unable to discharge their duties. 

It could mean the president is too sick to discharge his duties, or it could be for other reasons. Like outright defying every law and endangering American lives while systematically destroying our democratic norms.

If the president contests this, Congress must decide. If two-thirds of both the House and Senate agree Trump is guilty then he's ousted and the Vice President takes over.

Here's the sad reality. Congress is controlled by spineless Republicans in both the House and Senate who are frantically loyal to dear leader. And the current Vice President is Trump's lapdog. So, the chances are slim to none for any possibility of this action being successful.

The same applies to impeaching Trump in Congress. He's holding all the cards (in this case loyal minions) who wouldn't dream of defying him in any way at this point in time.

Despite these challenges I believe things are rapidly coming to a head when Congress basically forced Trump to release all of the Epstein files. 

When GOP members made it clear they wanted the Epstein files - despite Trump's persistence in trying to conceal them - a page turned in their relationship with Trump. He was forced to sign the legislation although he tried to make it appear it was his idea to come clean.

Other signs of dissent within the GOP are becoming obvious as MAGA loyalists - like Marjorie Taylor Greene - have turned on Trump. 

Republican Rep.Thomas Massie partnered with Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna in forcing a discharge petition to release the controversial files that finally ended up on Trump's desk to sign.

Recent elections in 39 states saw a blue wave as Democrats won nearly every contest across the country. Trump's popularity has never been so low as nearly two-thirds of Americans expressed dissatisfaction with his regime.

The polls are flashing red lights showing that no recent president has ever fallen so low in the polls as quickly as Trump has.

The biggest shift away from Trump has been among Americans under 30 years old. His net approval among that group was positive 3 when he returned to the Oval Office. 

Now it is minus 41. His ratings among Hispanic and black Americans, which began negative, have also plummeted.

I'm pointing out these facts to show that there's a chance - however slim - that Trump becomes such a threat to everyone in the nation he's either taken out by the 25th Amendment or impeached by Congress.

I'm not sure what would finally spur this change of heart among Republicans after they've let him run roughshod these last 10 months.

As it Stands, for 250 years the Constitution has been a firm bulwark for freedom. Unfortunately, that same bulwark is being bulldozed by Trump's lawless regime.
