Triumph of the Will, USA style

Those who need to control others always use force to inflict their will on the resistant. Whatever force is at their command will be used to crush the will of others. The ultimate weapon is making people good and dead — either physically or by destroying their good name among the people who love them. The terror of death is the last thing you want to have visited on you, once you see it in action. It tends to keep the ones not brutally killed, not made gruesome examples of, in line with the leader.

You will grimace at the soul ripping power of this violent force if you’ve ever had your good name assassinated. You will also know the force of maniacal will if anyone you love has been bullied, beaten or killed, physically or spiritually, after insane accusations of defiance or heresy. There is only one kind of sick fuck who gladly inflicts pain on others, though there are many variations in style. The common theme is force, and their willingness to use unlimited amounts of it against others in the user of force’s desperation to command obedience.

Use force to make ten year-old victims of rape carry the rapist’s baby to term and deliver it alive. Use force to punish any doctor who performs the abortion on the already traumatized girl. Use force on the cab driver who takes her across the border to a state where abortion for rape victims is still available. Use force to rip children from the arms of their asylum seeker/migrant parents at the border. How about this for force — keep no records of where you send these poor kids so the parents have no hope of ever seeing them again. Revive the death penalty, make it as common and normal as political lobbying. Use force to make people obey your religion, post its Ten Commandments in every classroom while you abolish the Department of Education. Forcefully abolish affordable health care for millions because, just because — if a poor person wants health care, beg your boss for it, bitches. Abolish the right of labor to organize, while we’re at it. Permanently end a child tax credit that took millions of children out of poverty while that credit was lawful. Promise to take millions of people, at gunpoint, to concentration camps for mass deportation.

The party of personal freedom, local control of government, limited government, law and order, no regulations on businesses, the MAGA party, embraces the violent coercion of people they hate. Americans are free to obey, or die. Local government is perfect, if it agrees with our pious national will. Limited government is necessary to command obedience, for those who would be obeyed. Strict, inviolable law and order for the poor and dispossessed, complete immunity for the ruling elite. Agents for the super-wealthy will decide if anti-pollution policies cost their patrons too much to be enforced. Religious Christians will decide what can be taught in schools, publicly debated, and what is heresy that will be strictly punished. Argue with the will of God on pain of death, accursed heretic!

We’ve seen fascism in many places in the last hundred years. It is an updated variation on the absolute right of history’s bloodiest Divine Right kings, fighting Popes and the unquestionable rule of our superiors and the armies that enforce their will. The main demonstrator of political superiority, as far as I can tell, is an open willingness to use deadly force to destroy anyone who would contest your incontestable will. I have seen these motherfuckers in action many times in my own life, and in the end, once conflict arises (and this taype can only react to conflict with aggression and threats of force) each must be met with rejection. To tolerate someone forcing you to abide by their beliefs, violently requiring you renounce what you know is right, is a worse death than the one those who must be obeyed will try to inflict once you walk away from them.

One trick turds

If someone needs to always be right, prevail in every transaction, never be at fault for anything, they will always resort to the same trick. If they can’t prove themselves right by some kind of evidence, or if they’ve obviously come out on the short end of some deal, or it is ridiculous to claim they played no part in the fatal conflict they are blaming the other person for 100%, they default to lying.

Their reply is always the same: an indignant, confused, confusing stream of nonsense, messy word salad, constantly shifting, contradictory stories, incoherent and liberally spiced with nice, juicy lies. Because the main thing, the only thing, is not to lose, never, NEVER, to be a loser, and if the truth hurts your case (which it often will), fuck the fucking truth, anything goes, the ends always justify the means, winning is the only thing.

So our former president has one move, it is the same one every time. From a baseline of stream of consciousness non sequiturs, it moves to grievance, talk of revenge, retribution, terrible crimes being committed against him by satanically evil fucks, persecution, the need to round up people at gun point and put them in camps, because they are drug dealers, from prisons and insane asylums, rapists, killers, vermin, blood poisoners.

The stream of his steaming bullshit is remarkably consistent, even if he introduces a new character from time to time. Rosie O’Donnell was eventually replaced by Crooked Hillary, Crazy Nancy (make hammering gesture for crowd, a wink to her 85 year-old husband being attacked by a hammer wielding Trump lover) Adam Schiff, Mueller, the January 6th subcommittee and so on. He brings in new friends and soulmates like Kim Jong Un, Victor Orban, Vladimir Putin and Hannibal Lechter.

If the Provigil and Adderall have been injected into a pink buttock and are fully on board, and he is particularly focused that day, he would say, in a cogent few sentences, what he scatters across rambling stretches of his last few hundred interchangeable speeches:

“I am the victim, I suffer for you, like Jesus, and I have the wounds to prove it, trust me, trust me, I could take off my shirt and show you my gorgeous double Ds, but then they’d say I was an exhibitionist, “Trump’s a narcissist,” they would say, because they miss no opportunity to literally crucify me, think of the twenty-five years of baseless witch hunts against me, all with no evidence, all fake, like the news, like your face, unlike my beautiful, thick, luxuriant head of blonde hair that no shower gives me enough water to lather and get the soap out of. I have to take like five showers in a row, and then flush the toilet fifteen times, because the Democrats, with their Marxist fascist water pressure regulations, they want to regulate everything, they want to tell you what to do, down to flushing your own toilet, so that a simple toilet becomes useless, refuses to flush documents, no matter how small you tear them up, blah blah blah”

Coprophagous [1] corporate media laps this insane, disgusting swill up, disgustingly, and its wealthy talking heads glibly normalize it all, talking about it like this is perfectly regular, all political candidates are rambling, insane criminal maniacs, n’est-ce pas? They lie to the citizens about the normalcy of radical extremism for the profit of their executives and shareholders. Whore culture is an ugly thing when it is in the service of a Nazi-like cult, and Leonard Leo’s wet dream of a devoutly Christo-fascist America is nothing if not Nazi-ish, but, what are you going to do? Such is the base profit motive that rules our Exceptional nation.

Time to minimize exposure to the aggravating profit-driven hysteria stirring of the corporate media. If it bleeds it leads, if it’s ugly it gets clicks, if its scary it get clicks, engagement equals gigantic CEO bonuses and elegant platinum parachutes when scandal hits. Fuck corporate media.

Here’s just two things on the recent news.

One: that Supreme Court presidential immunity case means only one thing — crimes committed by a criminal president, including all efforts to cover it up and all pardons of co-conspirators, no matter how corrupt, or even if the pardons are sold outright — are protected from public view or use in litigation of any kind, without the express consent of the Supreme Court, the entity that decides what criminal behavior falls within the highly arguable scope of ‘the outer fringes of the perimeter of arguably official duties’ which enjoy a presumption of legality, even if they involve, say, political assassination.

There is only one ex-president in American history who benefits from this ruling and he is running to figurehead Project 2025. First order of business, put these 6 Leonard Leo putos back in the tiny minority they are actually part of. These privileged fucks don’t speak for the average citizen, they are bought and paid for by our most unscrupulous psychopath billionaires.

Thing Two: Whoever the Democrats wind up running in 2024 (and I’m with Bernie and AOC, Biden did a great job, he’s been able to work well with all sides, he’s got the skills, the temperament, he’s earned the right to run, and he can kick Trump’s ass, but I’ll vote for whoever the cringing weasels wind up running) should win the election by a huge margin. The trouble is the fucking Electoral College, which can be gamed by anyone with the money and power to arrange a small number of votes in select districts.

I’ve been on a mission to alert people to the danger of a MAGA megadonor/sleeper in charge of the Postal Service, somehow still, who has crippled mail service nationwide and has the power to slow delivery, or halt it altogether, based on zip code. DeJoy in position to suppress 50,000,000 votes, if needed, seems to me the reason these Nazi dickheads are seeming so overconfident about not needing to attract more than 35% of the vote.

Very important to get some action on removing the fucking Postmaster before the election starts…

Irrational faith vs. reasonable conversation

It is impossible not to notice the ungodly strength of irrational “arguments”. Just scan the alarmingly skewed headlines and editorials of the fucking New York Times. Once an irrational belief is embraced, that’s all she wrote, boys and girls.

A person of unquestioning faith cannot be persuaded by facts, videos, secret recordings, written evidence, sworn testimony, a mountain of reasonable arguments for doubt or skepticism. This is the beauty, and unparalleled horror, of true belief. If you believe, say “amen”, and you no longer need to care in the least about the so-called “truth”. The truth you now believe will set you free (from ever needing to argue about truth again.)

That other truth, let us be clear, is the truth of heretics, infidels, God deniers, Christ killers, pedophile cannibal left-wing billionaires, libtards, cucks, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, etc.

Every tyrant, every leader around whom a cult of personality is built, every psychopathic CEO, every greed demented luster after thousands of millions of dollars, requires a belief system in which their quirks and abuses are seen as unquestionable virtues. You may not question this belief system without being portrayed as [insert your favorite dismissive expletive]. Now let us all say “amen”, it is so [1].

The horror is that humans, under pressure, will act as cleverly as lemmings in their desperation to save themselves, to survive, thrive, be part of something bigger than themselves, part of a true religion, true cult, true family or true couple. There is no human collective too small to be immune to this unilateral imposition of will, and demand for unwavering faith, from someone claiming the right to rule.

It is the shame of being human, witnessing the constant, thoughtless embrace of angry, sometimes murderous, irrationality. The worst of it is that these murdering mobs truly believe that all-mighty, all-powerful, all-merciful GOD told them it is their holy duty to slaughter. Holy shit, my friends.

[1] amen (interjection): used to express solemn ratification (as of an expression of faith) or hearty approval (as of an assertion). [Merriam Webster]

Rupert Murdoch’s WSJ explains Project 2025

These radical right wing activists are always referred to as “conservatives”. They are radical reactionaries, determined authoritarians, future American Nazis who have waited since 1954 (when an “activist” court ruled American apartheid in education unconstitutional) with saliva on their fangs.

Postal Regulatory Commission v. DeJoy

The following is from one of very few recent articles about our partisan postmaster, who comes across as pugnacious in his dealings with the Postal Regulatory Commission, and whose disruption of dependable mail service has, apparently, even aggravated House Republicans. This is from an organization called Government Executive, [govexec.com] (link below)

. . . The [Postal Regulatory Commission, PRC] commission made its recommendation after finding in the report that USPS in fiscal 2023 missed most of its goals for high-quality service performance; three of its eight goals related to customer service; and all of its goals related to maintaining a safe workplace, engaged workforce and financially healthy organization. 

DeJoy and PRC have been at odds for years, as the postmaster general has accused the regulators—and other stakeholders—of standing in the way of essential steps he must take to save the agency from insolvency. The new recommendation, however, marks the first time PRC has called for a pause to DeJoy’s signature plan. It follows the introduction of bipartisan bills that would restrict the Postal Service from carrying out its changes. 

In a recently introduced fiscal 2025 spending bill, House Republicans said they were “deeply concerned about the potential negative impacts” of DeJoy’s reforms. 

PRC flagged other aspects of DeJoy’s plan, including suggesting USPS consider whether its decision in recent years to increase prices twice annually “may accelerate electronic diversion resulting in adverse volume effects.” While postal officials have repeatedly highlighted its efforts to engage with its customers and employees over its plans, the commission said it has concerns about the “limited transparency” regarding the DFA and their “effects on service performance.” PRC recently pushed back on DeJoy’s rate increase strategy, saying postal management should exercise more discretion before continuing with its approach that “may be unprecedented in the history of the Postal Service.”

Many lawmakers and stakeholders across the postal community are imploring PRC to go further, calling for it to issue an “advisory opinion” on the totality of DeJoy’s DFA plan. 

Large-scale mailers and others that interact with the Postal Service regularly are hopeful an advisory opinion—while not enforceable—would provide a third-party assessment of the agency’s plans, evaluate its assumptions and potentially offer additional fodder to motivate either the USPS board of governors or Congress to intervene.

Why is this imperious MAGA mega-donor still in charge of crippling mail delivery ahead of an election with an expected 50,000,000 mail-in ballots? [1]

[1]

In 2020, during the depths of Covid, 66,000,000 votes were cast by mail, 43% of all ballots cast. (US Census)

34,248,000 mail-in ballots were cast in the 2022 midterms, 31.8% of 107,700,000 total votes cast in that high turnout midterm election  source 

Beyond that, numbers for mail-in voting have been on the rise in all elections since 2008. source

Time to wake up, voters

My concern about the power of a pugnacious partisan postmaster to not deliver millions of ballots, a guy who has already crippled mail delivery nationwide, has been met by silence or dismissal from every one of my elected officials and everyone in progressive media I’ve contacted. Here’s what a Democratic strategist I contacted wrote back to me.

I’ve read the proposed headlines below. This is out of my area of expertise, but these sorts of fears were very prominent in 2020 when Trump was president and Covid was making mail in ballots central to the election. When we looked into them then, they didn’t materialize. I don’t have more information than that. 

Here were my proposed headlines:

headline one:  Trump megadonor Postmaster General has the ability to halt delivery of millions of mail-in ballots from selected zip codes

headline two:  Federal Voter Suppression Scheme, under color of law, in full effect

This guy clearly suffers from smartest man in the room syndrome. There’s a lot of that myopia going on among our best and brightest public champions of democracy these days. Dismissing concerns about a corrupt partisan postmaster using his discretionary power to help his candidate, since it didn’t happen four months into his now four year reign, is as asinine as insisting that, clearly, since the January 6th attack on the Capitol didn’t bring democracy down, there is no reason to be concerned about it or anything like it anymore.

I intend to write back to him like so:

Subject: Instant expertise:

You dismissed this concern when I raised it the first time, since, in spite of similar fears, it didn’t happen in November 2020 when DeJoy had been postmaster for a few months.  Now it is four full years, full-steam ahead on “Delivering for America”, the Postal Regulatory Commission’s urging DFA be suspended until after the election be damned.  You conceded a lack of expertise in this matter.  Here is some information you need:

In 2020, during the depths of Covid, 66,000,000 votes were cast by mail, 43% of all ballots cast.

34,248,000 mail in ballots were cast in the 2022 midterms, 31.8% of 107,700,000 total votes cast in that high turnout midterm election  source Beyond that, numbers for mail-in voting have been on the rise since 2008.  source

DeJoy claimed, in his recent PR piece in the Washington Post, that in August 2023 there was a 98% on-time rate for mail delivery coast to coast. He is silent about what the current on-time delivery rate is. I wonder why.

We note that Senator Jon Ossoff reported on-time delivery from the new Atlanta processing and distribution center was 98% in 2022, 52% in 2023 and 72% YTD 2024.

This is not something to be concerned about, smartest man in the room? Do sixty seconds of research by clicking the links above to become an instant expert.

Please pass this on to your contacts, I can’t get anyone in government or media to give a rat’s ass about it and I’ve been trying for a solid month.  Hopefully someone in your network has a connection that can break through and get this issue public attention.  Otherwise we just have to trust that a MAGA partisan will not bend any rules, laws or norms to get his candidate elected.

Your best, most brilliantly targeted campaign donation advice will be in vain if my concern is even 20% true.  We’re talking about nationwide, easily targetable vote tallies 5-10 times larger than Biden’s robust margin of victory in 2020 (leaving aside the slim Electoral College margin).

Yours in the fight to save our fragile, problematic experiment in democracy,

Eliot Widaen

A little data on ratfucker Louis DeJoy’s power

I guess Senators Chuck Chuck BoBuck Schumer and Kirsten “Let’s lynch Al Franken” Gillibrand are too busy fretting over the Democratic candidate for 2024, in spite of the expressed will of a giant majority of Democratic voters, to read their hair on fire constituent emails, even if sent five times. My Congressman has also been silent as a sphinx, though the woman I spoke to at his office today seemed to share my concerns about DeJoy. I suppose every able bodied Democrat on Capitol Hill, if corporate media is to be believed, is clenching their collective anuses too hard to read constituent emails and have a staffer do five minutes of follow up google research.

My expressed concerns about Trump mega-donor Postmaster Louis DeJoy might be validly dismissed, if only a tiny number of American ballots were actually cast by mail. If mail in votes did not constitute a margin that could swing a close election, my worries would be stupid and a distraction. What if the number of mail in ballots in recent elections were in the 30 to 66 million ballots range? It turns out they are.

Read on, from a United States government website:

The number of by-mail ballots sent to voters nationally increased from 28.5 million to 42.4 million between 2008 and 2018, while returned ballots rose from 23.1 million to 30.4 million. Although the totals rise and fall based on the type of election held that year, examining the data when separated as midterm or presidential election shows that the ballots transmitted and returned nonetheless increase within the election categories.

source, also source of the graph below

In the 2020 election, 43% of all votes cast, more than 66 million ballots, were cast by mail (per US Census Bureau).

In the 2022 midterm elections there was a 31.8% vote by mail rate, over 34,000,000 votes, in a historically large turnout for a midterm. This is also from the US Census:

For the 2022 election, the survey found that nearly one-third (31.8%) of all voters cast ballots by mail, up from 23.1% in 2018. Almost half (47.1%) voted before Election Day, up from 37.8% in 2018.  

Other highlights:

  • Among those who were registered but did not vote in the 2022 elections, the most common answer given for not voting was, “Too busy, conflicting work or school schedule.”
  • The most common way people registered to vote was at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV); 29.8% of respondents reported registering at their DMV.
  • Among the citizen voting-age population, homeowners had higher voter turnout than renters, with 58.1% of eligible homeowners and 36.5% of renters voting.
  • Turnout rates for the citizen voting-age population differed by length of residence, 67.6% for those living in the same place for five years or longer and 40.5% for those in their current residence for one year or less.
  • Turnout was higher among the married (61.2%) than unmarried (42.5%) citizen voting-age population.  
  • Turnout was higher among veterans (62.7%) than among nonveterans (51.3%).  
  • Native-born citizen voter turnout was 53.4%, greater than the 41.4% turnout of naturalized citizens.
  • The South had the nation’s lowest voter turnout (48.9%), while turnout in the West (54.7%), Midwest (54.1%) and Northeast (53.8%) were not significantly different from each other.

More information about voter turnout for the election is available in the America Counts story, High Registration and Early Voting in 2022 Midterms.

You can’t expect a spineless man like Chuck Chuck BoBuck to step up and do the bold thing, he never has. Neither does it profit you to put faith in a female Senator who calls for a colleague who asked for an ethics hearing in his alleged misconduct to be ousted from the Senate immediately, without a chance to clear his name. As for my Congressman? Fuck that fucking puto, I’ve been in contact with his people several times, in addition to the papers I put in the mail to him and the sympathetic woman I spoke to at his office today. She promised she’d pass it on to her busily fundraising boss. So I am holding my breath, of course,

This corporate democracy we have here, where corporations and mega-wealthy donors can get any politician they want on the phone immediately to deal with their concerns, is rotten, corrupt and pathetic. We are in position to fix it, but we have a lot of hard work to do if we’re going to. Our first order of business is putting aside the petty squabbles to show a little unity and just a drop of fucking courage and soundly defeat Donald “Project 2025” Trump in November.

Then we have to remember how fucked up our corporate democracy still is and start fixing it, from Day One.

I get a reply from Louis DeJoy!

Only two weeks after Fed Ex delivered my letters to each of the seven sitting USPS governors, seeking to have Louis DeJoy replaced as Postmaster, and citing the many reasons why he must be ousted, DeJoy and his team put together an op ed for the Washington Post. Getting ahead of the media shit storm, Mr. Mail-in Ballot Suppressor?

He begins by rightfully blaming the 2006 Republican lame duck law, The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (a name as puckish as any of the wry German euphemisms of the late 1930s, arbeit macht frei, anyone?) that put the Post Office $55,000,000,000 in the hole to fund retirements fifty years into the future. The Postmaster, from his July 8th Washington Post op-ed/PR presentation:

We survived by suspending payments to our employee retirement fund, and deferring investments and maintenance on facilities, vehicles and equipment. This left the Postal Service workforce ill-prepared to deliver consistent, long-term service to the American public. . .

DeJoy shows this graph

. . . Three years later, our accomplishments have been significant. We worked with Congress to pass the Postal Service Reform Act, which eliminated unfair financial burdens that were placed on the Postal Service as a result of the 2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act. We have used our regulatory authority to make the pricing adjustments necessary to correct for more than a decade of defective pricing. . .

. . . By September 2023, 98 percent of Americans received their mail and packages within three days. Although we have slipped recently because of difficulties in overcoming our degraded operating conditions while opening new facilities, and remodeling and repositioning existing ones, we will soon be back to a performance level that can make the nation proud. . .

Now DeJoy starts in with his innovative cost cutting, efficiency improving (in the long run, if not in the short term, not, say, in time for the fall of 2024 — and mind you, a year ago we were at 98% on time, showing we can do it if we try) plan, Delivering for America (DFA). He runs the table with his glittering PR argument (minus any verifiable facts, on-time delivery data or other effects on actual postal customers) to the end of his op ed, which I reproduce without interruption. Note how his closing argument sets up the failing status quo (arranged by his radical right buddies in 2006) , which he posits is the only option to DFA, as an intolerable straw man at the end:

. . . Meanwhile, over the past three years, we have saved an estimated $2.5 billion annually by cutting approximately 50 million work hours; this fiscal year alone, we have reduced transportation costs by nearly $1 billion while significantly growing revenue and increasing our market share in the package delivery business. We have already invested more than $15 billion in renovating our facilities, acquiring new vehicles and equipment, and modernizing our technology. These investments provide our employees with the tools they need to perform their duties in today’s business environment, where we are required to compete with formidable commercial enterprises for our revenue. Along the way, we rapidly deployed our people, technology and logistics know-how to package and deliver more than 900 million coronavirus test kits to people across the nation in less than two days from ordering, confirming our role in the nation’s critical infrastructure.

Consequently, we have cut our projected 10-year losses from more than $160 billion to $65 billion, and we are working hard to eliminate the remaining losses over the next several years. Our progress clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of our plan, and it’s imperative we continue on this path.

“Delivering for America” is the only comprehensive strategy in existence that can save the Postal Service and empower this indispensable organization not just to survive but thrive. Now that we are on this path, we call on voices who continue to advocate the status quo to recognize that inaction has been proved to create a death spiral for the Postal Service. Our initiatives halt this decline, ready the Postal Service for today’s America and develop an institutional character to face the future. These self-help measures are critical for our operational and financial success. Waiting is not an option. Only by moving forward together can we build a modern Postal Service that will effectively meet the needs of the American people for generations to come.

I trust this smirking fucking puto as far as I can throw him. How about you? No reason to be concerned that this asshole is in sole charge of mail-in ballots being delayed or delivered on time to be counted in an election expected to be unaccountably close?

Assume Biden wins the election by twenty million votes, and no mail-in ballots from Democratic areas in battleground states are counted. Guess which candidate who didn’t win the popular vote gets to be president again?

Louis DeJoy, stand back and stand by, redux

While corporate media, and panicking Democrats, are obsessed over why a successful president refuses to step aside even though wealthy donors are threatening to withhold $90,000,000 in pledged campaign funds unless he does (NY Times headline today), I am wondering about a more direct threat in the 2024 election.

Consider the ease with which a MAGA “public servant” with the power to easily do so, can nullify millions of mail in ballots by simply delaying their delivery for a few weeks, after four years of practice with random, inexplicable nationwide month-long delays in mail delivery.

Do you trust a Postmaster appointed by the “transactional” Orange Quid Pro Quo, a man who donated $2,500,000 to Trump and the RNC in 2016, to deliver millions of mail-in ballots in time to be counted in 2024? Personally, I’d like to see a little oversight of this smug, smirking corporate fucker.

The media, we should note, is silent about the threat DeJoy’s nationwide mail slow-downs pose for an election expected to be unaccountably close. Google him, not much recently written about the arrogant dickhead, in spite of years of controversy, ethics probes, Congressional hearings. The watchdog groups I’ve contacted in the last few weeks are silent, my elected officials are silent, in spite of repeated contacts with them. I suppose there will be media silence, if Trump manages to engineer an Electoral College victory, when millions of undelivered votes are discovered right before the Dictator on Day One is sworn in for his revenge tour.

Which is more important for the outcome, for the future of democracy, endless criticism of the effective incumbent because he is old and walks like an old man, or stopping a massive voter suppression scheme conducted under color of law?

Here are the two most recent media pieces about Trump megadonor Postmaster Louis DeJoy. The first is a July 8 op ed by DeJoy himself, published in Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post. All I was able to read (not climbing that particular paywall) was this wonderful opening:

Louis DeJoy is the postmaster general. I am fascinated by the U.S. Postal Service and its opportunities to serve the American people. Each day, our 640,000 employees operate 32,000 retail and …

The only other recent update on the pugnacious, partisan Postmaster is this report about the Postal Regulatory Commission urging DeJoy to put off his experiments with more budget cuts and policy changes to slow mail delivery until after the 2024 election. Predictably, the arrogant dickhead is doing what the hardcore right wing always does, staying the course.

Meanwhile, corporate media, keep doing your job to advance the interests of corporate persons. Those judicially created psychopaths are people too, with feelings, just like real, God-created people!

And now, let’s repeat, with the Orange Polyp:

Louis DeJoy, stand back and stand by.

How to elect a Nazi, NY Times edition

Here are the top four New York Times headlines today. The paper’s wealthy (fourth generation wealth, the way it’s done by our greatest citizens) chairman and publisher, 43 year old “Dash” Sulzberger, is reportedly furious that Biden, after the NY Times ran dozens front page articles focusing on Biden’s disqualifying age, DEFIED their requests for a sit-down interview. The Journal of Record is now doing everything in its considerable power to create doubt about Biden’s competence and stoke a controversy that can only help Charles Koch, Leonard Leo, Sammy “My Wife has a right to do whatever she wants, libtards!” Alito and friends win the upcoming presidential election.

Note the even-handed placement of an article musing about why a would-be dictator would lie about a controversial, unpopular and largely insane public blueprint for his dictatorship.

I once called this newspaper the Grey Skank, which I realize now is an insult to skanks. My apologies, skanks.

Then, because the Journal of Record always tell the whole story with nuance, without bias or slant, this hard-hitting editorial warning against the danger of the candidate they are doing so much to help.

Here’s a bit of their moralizing, complete with quickly doubling back to questions about Biden’s unfitness and the urgent need for responsible, terrified Democratic big donors to replace him:

Mr. Trump has shown a character unworthy of the responsibilities of the presidency. He has demonstrated an utter lack of respect for the Constitution, the rule of law and the American people. Instead of a cogent vision for the country’s future, Mr. Trump is animated by a thirst for political power: to use the levers of government to advance his interests, satisfy his impulses and exact retribution against those who he thinks have wronged him.

He is, quite simply, unfit to lead.

The Democrats are rightly engaged in their own debate about whether President Biden is the right person to carry the party’s nomination into the election, given widespread concerns among voters about his age-related fitness. This debate is so intense because of legitimate concerns that Mr. Trump may present a danger to the country, its strength, security and national character — and that a compelling Democratic alternative is the only thing that would prevent his return to power.

Mr. Trump, as the NY Times puts it with it’s trademark restraint, MAY PRESENT A DANGER TO THE COUNTRY. If you say so, Grey Corporatist Coprophage [1].

Check the Grey Hag a few hours later and you will see these four top stories (Project 2025 query omitted in favor of another headline questioning Biden’s competency). Way to go, fuckheads.
