A criminal syndicate is running the U.S. government. Its buffoon of a boss is no laughing matter, and SCOTUS has given him license to do much more than steal from us. An American crisis, yes, but also an American tragedy. We MUST overcome this ignorant would-be tyrant, come what may.

The Felon enjoys being feared. He stuns the freedom-loving world by racing into Putin’s embrace, and the Senate majority leader responds by saying the dear leader must be given “some space.” His colleagues cower silently. The Felon's impunity mocks us all as he makes America un-American.

Given America's position on Ukraine, not to mention its cheerleading for U.S. businesses to explore today's lucrative new friendship with Russia, it has become clear whose side the United States is on. I'm on the OTHER side. The U.S. side is seditiously un-American.

Hoagie, the big guy on the right, has made appearances here before. I haven't been posting as much lately because we have a new member of the family, Monte (as in Monte Cristo). Don't let this photo fool you; Hoagie isn't OK with all this yet. I'm exhausted! But it's going to be fine. Really. It is.

There’s consolation in laughing this off as performative nonsense. Unfortunately, and critically, every day since January 20 has made it clear such language is no laughing matter. As the whole world knows, he has a great deal of experience in ignoring the law. As un-American as it gets.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove has caused an uproar in ordering the dismissal of Mayor Adams' criminal case. But this is not the first time Bove’s in hot water— read about his role in a criminal case found by the court to have involved "repeated failures to disclose exculpatory evidence.”

In re: All this craziness It doesn’t matter that it’s performative because the performance is all about affirming bigots’ prejudices. Nothing else is required. I look, as do we all, to the judicial branch for reason and common sense. How sad that actual justice seems a bridge too far.

This, of course, follows earlier guidance from the White House personnel office forbidding use of the phrase "orange poopy pants".

I mentioned a 2018 book by Duke University's Nancy MacLean, "Democracy in Chains," in an earlier post. These nihilists point to James Madison, she notes, but their lodestars are John C. Calhoun and James Buchanan, who "alleged a kind of class conflict between 'tax producers and tax consumers'."

SCOTUS! For God’s sake, where are you? Step in! Stop this garbage before the damage is so widespread and irreparable it’s too late. The American people are depending on you to bring this constitutional nightmare to an end. His impunity mocks you while it disgraces our country. Act now!

Musk, the Felon and their ilk believe the arc of the moral universe bends toward a vacuum. It’s nihilism. The adoration of money is eclipsed only by the lust for power. Pitiful really. (I’d hate to be that kind of person.) But Musk sure seems to be having fun.
