Shooters, Ballrooms & Poor Judgment

As bad as it is that someone tried to attack government officials and journalists in a ballroom in Washington DC, my sympathies are more with the students and teachers around the country, who live with the day to day realization that a gunman could attack their school. And in that case, there would be no secret service agents to intervene. On the subject of the secret service, it certainly seems lucky for everyone, that these brave, well trained people were not replaced by Fox News, anchors or other television personalities. On the issue of the White House ballroom, with its secure bunker underneath it. We're hearing it now needs to be completed, because it is a security risk. Until every school gets a secure bunker, I'm not in favor of it to protect politicians who continue to ignore school shootings and real resolutions that could help to stop that. Whoever ordered the side of the White House knocked down, without proper authority, exhibited poor planning and poor judgment. T...

Unqualified Negotiaters

What if the USA tried sending real diplomats to meet with Iran? Sending a real-estate investor and Trump's son-in-law hasn't worked multiple times.

Why School Behavior Issues Don't Get Fixed

The issue of bad behavior and violence in schools has gotten worse not better. And it could be, because the trend is to manipulate the numbers on spreadsheets, rather than to address the issues of the bad behavior. Because certain demographics show up more often for behavior problems, the answer from governing bodies and echoed by administrators, is to stop targeting those individuals. The result is that teachers have to play the "game," of not reporting incidents, or asking for help. Because if they do, the behavior problems are often "thrown back at them," as if it is due to their (lack of) teaching ability. The true answer lies in finding out why certain groups have more behavior issues, rather than not reporting them—just to manipulate the numbers. The fix involves trying to understand and alleviate the problems at their source. So far, many people won't accept this, because it shifts the responsibility back onto the students (and families), who have difficu...

To Republican Leaders...

Remember, a few years ago when people were putting stickers on the gas pumps that showed Joe Biden, pointing at the price and saying, "I did that!" I miss those days when literally everything was cheaper, and unemployment wasn't so rampant. It kind of makes you wonder what life would be like if we didn't have a President who was a criminally insane narcissist. But go ahead and sit there, Republicans, and pretend that your emperor is still wearing clothes. Because it's so fun to watch our democracy collapse after 250 years, because none of you have any guts or common sense.

Trump's War Lies are Stupid

Lying sack of shit said Iran had no radar or anti-aircraft ability left. It was "totally obliterated." So, pulling your "facts" out of your ass, is dangerously idiotic. Just show us the Trump-Epstein files, so we can stop the indiscriminate bombing.

USA Needs an Upgrade

We need a new version of everything in the USA. We need a new version that isn't a 2-party system. We need a new version of DEI that is actually fair and equitable and not just reversed. You can't have these extremes of left and right, because they start to become similar after a while--and they, in no way, represent the rest of the population.

Trump Controlled Media

Truth in Politics

I sure hope, although I have doubts, that once we get past this Trump dictatorship, that the liberal left will try to be more truthful than they have been in the past. I understand the goal of equality, however, if that means lying and not holding some people accountable, then we are doomed to swing rapidly back-and-forth. What we need is some truth, some middle ground, and equality for everyone--without the cancel culture, and the vengeance, that has become mainstream in politics on both sides of the aisle. It's nice to see that more people are realizing that Trump is only doing this for himself, and it's destroying our democracy. But still, there are an awful lot of people who are continuing to drink the Trump kool-aid, because their hatred of people from certain demographic groups is so strong that they believe the lies about them destroying our country and getting everything for free while we pay for it through tax dollars. Of course, this is false, and the only ones who ar...

A Visit from King Trump

'Twas the night before Epstein, the sharpies redacting Miles of incriminations, of rich guys impacting! The pedophiles let out a cry of despair, Would some go to prison? It didn't seem fair! What about Trump? Whose lies do abound; Amidst the black lines, will his name there be found? And Bondi with her brown nose, and Hegseth with bombs, Had killed some poor fishermen, and saddened their moms. When on the White House lawn there arose such a clatter, The east-wing destroyed, like it just didn’t matter! Across the street, I saw a big flash, ICE arresting children with Kristi Noem and with Cash! The economy now at a new-fallen low, From Trump’s IQ being so far below. When what to my wondering eyes did appear, Groceries sky high, and higher I fear, With a leader with dementia, who is quite sick, I knew in a moment he must be a dick! More swollen his ankles, his stink and his shame, And he yelled, and insulted, and called them a bad name: "Now, Piggy! now, S...

Trump Dumb Luck is Not Immunity

Just because there is no one within the Trump organization who will speak out against the idiotic policies, interviews and posts that the President participates in daily, it does not mean that this inbred and completely backward intellectualism is immune to repercussions at some point. As the Timothy Treadwell story has demonstrated to us, getting away with doing really stupid things over and over might mean that you are lucky, but it doesn't mean that you are immune. Although, by the time the smarter people are proven correct, someone with grand notions about themselves might become bear food.

Gilligan for President!

No Food until Healthcare goes away

No food until you allow your Healthcare to be taken away. Some countries have both. But that cuts into billionaires' profits. That's why it doesn't work in the USA.

Message to Trump Supporters...

Trump supporters, I get it. A few years ago, Liberals were getting out of hand and there wasn't much truth in what they said. Black Lives Matter was gaining momentum, and again, it started with the truth, and then wandered away from it. By the time the news media started talking about Asian Hate, my Asian relatives had been talking about it and sharing stories on social media for a couple of years. Then I realized why. The news media refused to broadcast anything about Asian Hate unless white people were the perpetrators, which wasn't usually the case. Yes, it seems that perhaps white people were under attack as being the cause of all of the ills of society, and Donald Trump was going to be your savior. But I think it's obvious now, that he is criminally motivated, and your best interest is not his priority--even if he's harming the immigrants and brown-skinned people that you are upset with. This is now about our rights and our freedoms, and our democracy, which we ...

Stupor Dumm!

Is your economy good? Are you getting along with your neighbors? Are things things equitable for all people? Is the job market strong? Then you need the new superhero, "Stupor Dumm!" Stupor Dumm will have your economy in a shambles, unemployment on the rise, your neighbors will hate you and and only rich people--especially if they're white, will be able to get ahead!

Trump Says, Smart People Don't Like Him...

There is a video of Donald Trump, saying that smart people, don't like him. Does that mean he thinks his own supporters are not smart? Because there is data that supports that premise. But the admission itself is telling. It's an admission that less intelligent people have voted for a leader who has surrounded himself with people who lack intelligence, who are supporting a barely literate, criminal and sexual predator, down a path that lacks conventional wisdom, logic, morality, truth and justice. It corroborates that we are following an intellectually deficient leader, installed by the least intelligent portion of the population. Science and truth, are enemies of this insane push to harm people, the economy, the environment and everyone except the excessively rich. So, I would agree that Trump has finally uttered a truth. It was bound to happen I guess.
