Trump Faces Crisis of Faith

Some call Trump the Artful Dodger (a clever play on his draft dodging days with disabling bone spurs) and some call him Don the Con. He's also been referred to as the Felon-in-Charge and the Grifter King.

Trump's ability to elude paying for his crimes and corruption is legendary. Teflon Don built up a following by posing as a strong man who could save America from the devilish democrats and immigrants who are invading the country. 

His harsh rhetoric riddled with lies appealed to a segment of Americans who felt disenfranchised and were searching for a savior. 

MAGA was born out of chaos. And that chaos was Trump breaking every rule, every law, and pursuing every perceived enemy with wild abandon.

For the last nine years Trump cultivated his cult like a gardener watering the weeds instead of the flowers. He nurtured white Nationalists, the KKK, and anti-government goons willing to do or say anything for him. His MAGA base swelled over the years and carried him to two terms in the White House.

Then the Jeffrey Epstein scandal rolled over Donny like a tsunami out of nowhere. In a panic he turned on his own base when they demanded all of the Epstein files be released and he called them weaklings. MAGA figured out Trump and Pam Bondi were lying to them about turning over all of the files. Worse, they defended their lies with new lies.

MAGA melted down. Some die-hard followers have limped back after attacking Trump for days. Either because of fear or they just had too much of the Kool aid for too long. 

But the bulk of MAGA nuts are still raging about Trump's betrayal. Their holy Epstein conspiracy that was going to expose Bill Clinton and a host of pedophile liberals went up in smoke instead. After nine years MAGA minions are now being told to not even talk about THE CONSPIRACY that provided a foundation for their whole MAGA movement.

Wait a moment.

Does this mean that Trump's very pissed off base is going to do everything they can to make him miserable? I suspect they're a vindictive bunch who will embarrass and harass him until he leaves the White House - and more than likely afterwards. Haters know how to hate.

The rest of the country is slowly realizing how vulnerable Trump has become with the growing Epstein scandal. Democrats are calling for transparency and demanding all Epstein files be released. The majority - an astounding 93% of Americans - polled about the scandal say Trump is trying to hide something.

In times like this Trump normally throws out bright and shiny objects to change the conversation in the news. However, the diversions have done little to change the subject. Even Trump's libel lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal and Fox News is boomeranging on him. If he follows through owner Murdock will be more than ready with the receipts. Real evidence.

Trump has to win back the trust of his followers. That's why he ordered the attorney general to seek the release of grand jury testimony in the Jeffrey Epstein case. The problem is the grand jury indictment will only be a sliver of the information that's still being concealed.

As it Stands, the bottom line is Trump betrayed his followers and there's going to be hell to pay.

The Day They Tore 'Ol Donny Down

This wasn't supposed to happen.

MAGA is at its zenith. The halls of Congress are MAGA-fied. 

Every government agency is MAGA-fied. The Oval Office was MAGA-fied with gold objects. Law firms and Universities are threatened by Trump and his corrupt MAGA lawyers. America has been MAGA-fied in six short weeks.

The takeover is nearly complete. Laws are broken with impunity. The Supreme Court keeps bailing Trump out and enabling his assault on the Constitution.

Trump has his own private army of thugs willing to invade people's homes and workplaces and kidnap them while wearing masks and carrying assault rifles.

MAGA minions supported the One Bigly Ugly Bill despite the fact it took away Medicare and SNAP programs from their constituents because Daddy told them to. Because they were loyal. Whatever Trump said was gospel.

Being loyal MAGA rats Trump's followers believed every conspiracy he brought up in the last nine years. From Russia, Russia, Russia to Jeffrey Epstein's client list of evil Democrats, they believed in him with all of their anti-government little hearts.

Trump loyalists even stood by him when he tried to stage a coup, believing his latest conspiracy that the 2020 election was rigged. Despite evidence to the contrary Trump supporters clung to his blatant lies like rats in life rafts on a turbulent ocean.

If there was one holy grail for his staunch followers, it was the Epstein saga. Bill Clinton and a host of Democrats were supposedly on a secret list that Epstein kept for his own purposes. It was the shining star of conspiracies and grew over the years into a massive expose waiting to happen.

Then Epstein supposedly committed suicide (during Trump's first term) while awaiting trial for sex trafficking of minor girls. Case closed right? Not so fast. The Trump narrative that the Deep State was covering for Democratic pedophiles took off like a rocket in the MAGAverse.

But, after a recent series of events that resurrected the Epstein scandal Trump turned on his most loyal followers this week and called them weaklings for wanting Pam Bondi to turn over the rest of the Epstein files and client list. 

She supposedly had the goods on the Democrats... right? What was the problem?

Shocked mega supporters quickly grew angry as they realized Trump had been lying all along. He was concealing the files to mask his complicity in sex trafficking with his buddy for 10 years. Now even some timid Republicans in Congress are asking for Bondi to release what whatever records she has on the Epstein case. Even MAGA Mike Johnson wants to see them.

Trump is beside himself with anger and is doing everything he can to divert from the Epstein story, even bringing up silly crap like Biden's use of an autopen (which by the way he uses too).

Sensing an opening Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's accomplice who procured girls, is asking the Supreme Court for a retrial after being sentenced to 20 years in prison. Trump's goons quickly filed an appeal to squash the effort. The way I see it Maxwell could do one of three things if she doesn't get her retrial:

1. Ask Trump for a pardon. Agreeing to keep her mouth shut.

2. Ask to speak in front of Congress and spill the beans in the hope it'll reduce her sentence.

3.Talk to a reporter and give them ALL of the sordid details about Donny. 

It remains to be seen how many loyalists will still stay with him. Some MAGA critics like Charlie Kirk are pretending they don't care about what's going on - even after Kirk lost his mind about the betrayal to only change it a day later when Daddy called and threatened him.

As it Stands, Trump has managed to dodge trouble for the better part of his sordid life. It'll be interesting to see how this latest scandal plays out. 

The Perils of Laughter

There's nothing like a good laugh, right? 

Laughter is generally beneficial for your health, promoting stress reduction, improving your mood, and boosting your immune system.

In describing how hard someone laughed you may have heard the phrase, "He was dying from laughter." It's often used hyperbolically but what if there was some disturbing truth behind that phrase.

The fact is you can die from laughing. Death from laughter is a rare form of death, usually resulting from either cardiac arrest or asphyxiation, that has itself been caused by a fit of laughter. Dying from laughter has been recorded in ancient Greece right through modern times.

Three Recorded Examples...

Chrysippus, also known as "the man who died from his own joke," was a 3rd-century Greek philosopher who reportedly died of laughter after he saw a donkey eating his fermented figs; he told a slave to give the donkey undiluted wine to wash them down, and then, "having laughed too much, he died," according to Diogenes Laertius a local scribe.

Ole Bentzen was a Danish audiologist who found a scene in the movie A Fish Called Wanda so sidesplittingly funny that his heart rate rose to an estimated 250-500 beats per minute, leading to a heart attack as he laughed his way into the afterlife.

Alex Mitchell, from King's Lynn, England, died on March 24, 1975, laughing while watching the "Kung Fu Kapers" episode of The Goodies. After 25 minutes of continuous laughter, Mitchel slumped on the sofa and died from heart failure.

Three examples In Fiction...

"The Three Infernal Jokes," short story in The Last Book of Wonder (1916) by Lord Dunsany, is about three jokes "which shall make all who hear them simply die of laughter." 

"The Stand In," was an episode of the American comedy Seinfeld, which featured Jerry Seinfeld telling a joke to a hospital patient who then suddenly dies from laughter.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a 1988 fantasy comedy, had a scene where the weasels of the Toon Patrol literally die laughing.

So now that we have determined laughter is not always a good thing in large doses, we can take the necessary precautions although I don't know what that would entail. Stop laughing? I don't think so. Check with your doctor before going to see a comedy? Not practical. 

As it Stands, when you think about it dying from laughter may not be such a bad way to exit this life. I can certainly think of worse ways. 

GOP Declares 'Diarrhea Day" in Honor of Trump

WARNING! DON'T READ THIS POST IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED BY SCATOLOGICAL HUMOR

Oh boy! A new national holiday.

In a strictly partisan vote in the House and Senate Republicans unified to declare "Diarrhea Day" a national holiday to be held on August 1st, 2025.

House Speaker Maga Mike Johnson gave a speech in the rotunda praising the president's loose lips and the daily diarrhea that he spews from his anus shaped mouth. It was a shitty moment of watery word stools that energized his base.

Meanwhile Maga morons across the land put together bullshit competitions for the new upcoming holiday. Scatological speeches - all inspired by their master - will headline the fun activities planned to celebrate poop pouring from the president's oval mouth.

Other activities include:

* The Fastest Ass-Licker - a five-yard sprint to a replica of Trump's bare bum.

* Using that lifelike Trump rump competitors are timed to see who can crawl up his massive ass the fastest. 

* Competitors will compete to see who can hold their breath the longest inside the Trump replica's rear end.

Among the prizes given out lucky winners will get to stay in Trump's private bathroom and experience what it's like going up a live ass after he took a crap.

In a live telecast from Trump's private bathroom/aka his bully pulpit the first ever felon in the White House discussed how his followers will do absolutely anything he tells them to.

"If I tell someone to take a train up my Hersey Tunnel they say, 'Yes sir!' and 'Thank you sir'"

Disgusted Democrats were quick to reply to Trump's stinking holiday and took steps to hold nationwide poop protests against the feces festivals being held by Maga minions.

According to Maga event planners Turd-On-A-Stick is expected to be the new favorite fair food for Trumpies. However, Dung Doughnuts are expected to push the excrement excitement levels to a new level of grossness. The loyal planners even came up with a new hot beverage called Nightsoil Coffee guaranteed to make your breath smell like ass.

As it Stands, I warned you dear reader. This is not my typical post. I think the spirit of George Carlin (famous comedian) inspired me!

Try Walking a Mile in Their Shoes

 In 1961 a groundbreaking book titled Black Like Me was written by a white man who posed as a black man in America's Deep South.

John Howard Griffin recounted his journeys in a quest for social justice in the United States back in a time when racism was rampant in this country. 

The battle for civil rights was in its infancy as black leaders risked their lives in pursuit of equality and justice.

Flash forward to June 2025.

If your brown, it's not safe to walk around in public anywhere in America today. The majority of immigrants deported are not criminals. The data (when you can pin it down) clearly shows a purge of brown-skinned people in our society. Innocents are kidnapped by masked men with automatic weapons who treat them like criminals without rights. 

Concentration camps are springing up like poisonous toadstools. 

For example, there's the so-called Alligator Alcatraz in the middle of the Florida Everglades. 

Trump and his MAGA morons toured the facility - rows of cages - and joked about escapees trying to outswim alligators. 

It was one of those moments when you could clearly see their lack of humanity.

Unwarranted ICE attacks against people is a daily experience thanks to Trump and his minions like Stephen Miller, Pam Bondi, Kristi Noem, and Tom Homan.

 I would really like to see this group of haters transformed into brown skinned people and tossed out into the streets at the mercy of ICE goons wherever they try to hide. Can you imagine what a wakeup call that would be for the MAGA bigots?

What I really want to see - oh, please, please - is Trump with brown skin (not his usual orange) as a common citizen and not the president of the United States. 

It would be good for him to walk many miles in a Hispanic's shoes. Maybe as a brown man he'd learn a new prospective on life and even some traits like empathy.

I doubt it though.

Trump is a generational criminal who has installed a cadre of loyalists that have diligently gone about destroying our democratic republic and turning America into an authoritarian state in six short months.

As it Stands, if there is such a thing as karma (and I sincerely hope there is) when Trump dies, he'll get reborn as a Mexican woman.

Rampant Hate in America - Is There a Cure?

                   We've become a nation of haters.

It's too complicated to go into all of the reasons why. We know Trump has cultivated haters like a gardener in hell. But what led us to this precarious state of affairs?

For some context let's turn the date back to 2018 when an investigation examining intolerance, racism and hate crimes was conducted at the Arizona State University Walter Cronkite School of Journalism.

The project was called "Hate in America" and was sponsored by the Carnegie-Knight News21 program, a national multimedia reporting project produced by the nation's top journalism students.

What they found was an increase in those targeted in hate crimes by a surge of white supremacist and others who seek to victimize people. No surprise that it was Trump's first regime stirring the pot of hate nationally at the time.

The Southern Poverty Law Center tracked 835 antigovernment groups and 595 hate groups, totaling 1,430 hate and extremist groups in America last September. The FBI also released hate crimes data from the Uniform Crime Reporting Program as reported by law enforcement agencies across the country.

The data was horrifying. Those agencies reported 11,862 hate crime incidents involving 13,839 offenses. 

I wouldn't be surprised if the current Trump regime does away with hate crime reporting. After all, just look at how many criminals (haters all) he's pardoned in the last six months.

The purveyors of hate today have discovered it's a good way to sell hateful merchandise and capitalize on their message.

Is there a cure for stopping the spread of hate like wildfires? 

If there is I haven't heard of it. 

The politics of hate are too firmly embedded in our government and society. 

As it Stands everybody hates somebody these days. I hate Trump and his minions for actively destroying our democracy and creating an authoritarian state with him as the supreme dictator.

If you tell them the truth they will come...sometimes

I hate liars.

Oddly enough, not everyone feels that way. 

Accepting lies is the foundation for the current regime. Ignore reality and you may find a place in Trump's authoritarian government.

Once a liar, always a liar. Trump teethed on lies and they became more elaborate with every year. Liar counters covering Trump's first time in office exposed thousands of lies throughout his time in office.

A Zebra does not shed its stripes nor does a tiger. Voters should have considered that in the 2024 election when Trump's lies were supersized with the help of his buddy Elon Musk. At first blush it's hard to believe that half of America bought Trump's lies.

It's no secret that Trump is a pathological liar. His behavior is known as pseudologia fantastica. It is characterized by frequent, elaborate, and often self-serving lies that may or may not have a clear purpose or benefit to him. Psychology experts have been saying Trump has a malicious narcissistic personality since he emerged on the scene as a rich boy buying real estate in New York.

What I find hard to understand is that nearly anyone you talk to - a Democrat or a Republican - knows damn well Trump lies like a rug.

When evidence pops up debunking one of his lies, he attacks the media source and claims its fake - especially if it's coming from the mainstream media.

We've become a nation of enablers and cowards. That fact both disgusts me and disappoints me. How could we have let a felon into the White House with his corrupt history?

The core problem is truth. Somehow, it's been so diluted by lies no one trusts the truth anymore. What is truth? Whose telling it? It becomes complicated when it shouldn't be. Yet here we are.

Thanks to internet platforms with millions of follower's truths are tossed around like hot potatoes. Americans find web sites that go along with their own beliefs, regardless of how crazy they are. In this atmosphere truth suffers every minute, hour, and day. The attacks never stop.

Despite all of the negative challenges to truth it's still alive and thriving among sane and intelligent people who accept reality and don't live in a cult. 

When MAGA says the sky is red and you can see its blue you know what's true.

Stephen King wrote, "The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool." 

Don't let yourself be that "innocent" and thoroughly vet what you read.

Mark Twain wrote, "A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes."

As usual Twain's wit is right on. Especially in these times with the internet when information is shared instantly.

As it Stands, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

Pardon Me - Trump's Unchecked Abuse of Power

On August 13, 2008, I wrote a column titled "Presidential Pardons are a Bad Idea."

As of June 20, 2025, I still think presential pardons are a bad idea. It turns out that I was right 18 years ago, but I had no idea how abused this perk would become.

For some background on lame duck presidents taking advantages of blanket pardons we need not go back any further than George Washington who pardoned the men who started the so-called whiskey rebellion in 1794.

Trump did the same thing with the January 6th insurrectionists in the beginning of his second term.

Jimmy Carter pardoned Vietnam war draft dodgers in 1977.

Some past examples of individual pardons are Nixon pardoned Jimmy Hoffa, President Ford pardoned Nixon, President H.W. Bush pardoned Casper Weinberger, and President Clinton pardoned his buddy Marc Rich after getting hefty donations from his wife Denise.

Corrupt abuse of pardons happened on a smaller scale before Trump wobbled into the political scene, but none have come close to the blatant abuse Trump is currently wielding. He didn't wait until he was a lame duck either like past administrations. 

I mentioned the J6 rioters earlier, but they were just the first of many questionable pardons to come. 

Five months into his presidency Trump has sparked controversy by pardoning a growing number of convicted drug dealers, including Larry Hoover who was serving multiple life sentences in federal prison for crimes linked to his role leading the Chicago-based Gangster Disciples.

Drug policy experts say it's difficult to find a coherent philosophy behind Trump's use of pardons and clemency. That's because there is none. Trump is "transactional" when it comes to pardons that often reflect the influence of powerful individuals. It's become one of his more profitable grifts and we can expect him to use it until he leaves the White House - one way or another.

The irony of Trump's pardons is as thick as a brick. During his first term he pardoned and freed Alice Maria Johnson who was sentenced to life behind bars for her role as part of a Memphis, Tenn., cocaine trafficking ring. Earlier this year he appointed her to serve as his "pardon czar." Hell, I didn't even know there was such a thing.

Financial and political supporters that were jailed are now having a banner year for pardons and commutations. It's like a game of The Price is Right but it's a grift in real time.

Some quick examples:

Devon Archer and Jason Galanis who were former business partners of Hunter Biden, accused him of improperly leveraging his father's political power to broker overseas business relationships were doing prison time - Archer for defrauding a Native American tribal entity - and Galanis for multiple fraudulent schemes. Trump granted one a full pardon and commuted the other.

Todd and Julie Chrisley who were known for their show "Chrisley Knows Best" were sentenced to a combined 19 years in prison on charges including fraud and tax evasion. Trump pardoned them last month and guess what? They're both back on TV like nothing ever happened.

Paul Walczak, a Florida businessman and nursing home executive who pled guilty to tax crimes last year was pardoned by Trump. 

Paul ripped off his employees for $10 million dollars by taking it out of their paychecks to buy luxury items for himself - like a $2 million yacht. 

According to the New York Times, Walczak's pardon application stated that his mother, Elizabeth Fago, donated and raised millions of dollars for Trump's presidential campaign.

There's a lot more, at least 100 pardons that Trump has passed out since January. That's not counting how many more he'll grant during the remainer of his corrupt regime.

As it Stands, Trump has many ways to reward loyal brownnoses beyond granting them pardons. 

An Open Apology to the World

Dear World...

I'm sorry that we Americans have let Trump loose upon you. 

America has been transformed into an authoritarian state in five short months. It's our own fault. 

We let the world's richest man buy votes for Trump in the swing states during the 2024 election and let him get away with it. Indeed, he was rewarded and given free rein to destroy government agencies and collected information on every American which he put into a central data bank. A Big Brother move if I ever saw one.

The Republican Party has been taken hostage and replaced with the MAGA cult. Traditional Republicans have forsaken their values and accepted Trump's tyranny out of fear of what he can do to them.

As world leaders gathered at the G7 Conference in Calgary, Canada recently, it was apparent how abhorrent Trump was when he spent his time there praising Putin to everyone's disgust.

The Canadian prime minister had to cancel a press conference because of Trump's ranting about Russia and attacking the G7 attendees with veiled tariff threats. It was an embarrassing display by any standards.

I know. We the People really screwed up big time. There's a lot of reasons why, and how, this happened. As I mentioned earlier Elon Musk demonstrated just what money will buy these days in our polluted political system. Then there was election interference by MAGA minions in every state that had a Republican majority. They tied up courts trying to push draconian election laws. They were successful in many states - especially the swing states - in flooding areas with misinformation against the Democrats. 

The presidential election had 73.6 percent registered voting-age population but only 65.3 percent actually voted. Simply put, a lot of eligible voters didn't vote. Apparently, the non-voters didn't realize the threat Trump was and were content to let democracy take a massive hit. Or they didn't care one way or another. I'm guessing they care now.

I realize the rest of the world thinks Americans have gone crazy electing a far-right fascist. 

I admit there are a lot of crazy MAGA morons running around and causing chaos throughout the country right now. 

We are no longer a beacon for democracy. We are a conflicted society struggling to maintain our republic.

Please...don't give up on the United States of America. We will overcome this massive challenge to our Constitution. We've done it before, and we'll do it now. When Democrats gain control of Congress next year - and they will - the tide will be turned. There will be restraints on Trump's power. Maybe even an impeachment. By the time 2028 elections roll around I expect we'll elect a president who respects our democratic republic.

Try to be patient. All Americans are not assholes wearing red MAGA hats. I don't blame you if you no longer have a desire to vacation in the USA. Admittedly if you are brown or black skinned it's not safe to visit now as we have our own version of the Nazi Gestapo raiding churches, restaurants, court houses, and other public places.

I'm so sorry, but it's our reality right now. Hopefully it will get better someday. We are working on it. 

You may have noticed how millions of Americans are turning out in the streets protesting Trump's regime.

 We're not going to stop doing it either, until he's gone. 

As it Stands, I want to thank the world leaders who have stood up to Trump's tariff threats and shown they won't be bullied by the Orange Asshole squatting in the White House.

Another Societal Transformation: Will the Nation Survive this One?

I watched America undergo a massive transformation in the 1960s and early 70s. The streets were full of protestors against the Vietnam war. It was the nation's youth against a corrupt establishment that tried to suppress free speech while conducting an illegal war.

I still recall the protests in colleges as students fought for their rights in an environment where war hawks populated a Congress that ruthlessly attacked its detractors. The People. And I remember the Kent State massacre in 1970 when national guardsman killed four students and wounded nine others. Riots broke out at colleges throughout the country.

Those were transformative years that saw an exit from Vietnam and the emergence of the civil rights movement that produced leaders like Martin Luther King. America was tired of the war and many young people/hippies felt like they had a path to a better life. In response to the violence across the country they moved into communes and extoled the merits of living off the earth. Being close to nature. Smoking marijuana was commonplace in these little communities that were mostly located in Northern California.

Fast forward.

2025. Protests are popping up like mushrooms in a fertile field as a growing number of Americans are protesting Trump's authoritarian regime.

Los Angeles is experiencing chaos in the streets as ICE agents storm court houses and restaurants looking for immigrants dressed up in full combat gear. 

Trump called in the National Guard despite the governor's request not to, further inflaming protestors rebelling against the regime's Gestapo-like deportation raids. 

Our dictator-in-chief also sent 700 Marines to back up the 4,000 national guard troops already lingering around LA County in preparation for an invasion that will never come.

In five short months Trump has turned the country inside out. Truth is a casualty in the MAGA culture that's infected Congress and all of the states. The day of AI has arrived bolstering lies and feeding the public dark conspiracies that rivaled anything Joseph Goebbels, the Minister of Lies under Hitler, was every able to concoct.

The Constitution is being shredded daily as Trump attempts to eliminate any judicial reprisals for his illegal actions. 

On June 14th, five million Americans gathered in all 50 states to protest Trump on NO KINGS Day. 

Watching people from different states all united with one central theme - Trump Must Go - gave me hope that We the People will restore order again in the future. My wife and I attended the protest in Medford, Oregon where we live. It was inspiring to see so many people gathered in Peace to protest the Trump regime. 

While all of this upheaval is taking place almost daily there is no clear path to solving the situation facing our divided nation. It's the first time we elected a King. Getting rid of him isn't going to be easy. How long he gets away with his crusade to destroy our democratic republic is anyone's guess. Meanwhile Americans need to stay united in their opposition to Trump's corrupt regime.

As it Stands, I've already watched one transformation in our society and now it seems another is happening. America survived the first one. I wonder if we'll survive the second while I'm still alive.

National NO KINGS DAY Protests Will Rain on King Donny's Parade

        IN       AMERICA 

           WE DON'T

           DO KINGS

Ever since America's founders got rid of crazy King George and formed a democratic republic, this nation has been a beacon of freedom worldwide.

ABOUT NO KINGS

On June 14 - Flag Day - President Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn't staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else.

NO KINGS is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we're taking action to reject authoritarianism - and show the world what democracy really looks like.

-The Organizers

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

Thursday 6/12/25

Democratic Senator Padilla was assaulted by Trump minions when he tried to speak at a press conference being held by the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in California, the state Padilla represents. He was thrown to the ground and handcuffed by secret service goons supposedly stopping him from rushing at Noem. It's a good thing there's a video. The MAGA lies and tears have already begun.

Padilla DID identify himself but was still assaulted. Noem is claiming he didn't. If not for the video, she would have gotten away with another blatant lie. But now the whole world can watch and judge what happened.

Friday June 13th

A judge said Trump's team is violating state and federal laws and called for restoring Gov. Newsom's authority over the California National Guard. He gave Trump's minions until Friday to appeal the ruling. They did and a panel of three judges said things will remain static until next Tuesday's hearing when it will be decided if Trump overreached his powers.

Meanwhile Trump sent 700 Marines into Los Angeles today trying to escalate the situation. Their mission remains unclear.

A Red Line has been crossed. Congress is in an uproar. America holds it breath.

On the lighter side... 

It turns out that it's literally going to rain on Donny's parade!! The National Weather service is predicting rain on Saturday in Washington DC. The humidity is going to be through the roof! Dark clouds all day. I think God is saying something. If Trump is struck by lightning, it'll be proof.

If there's any lightning the Pentagon said it will have to cancel the parade and try to reschedule it. Ain't that a shame?

As it Stands, if you think Trump is a threat to the entire country check out the area closest to you and join your fellow Americans on NO KINGS Day.
