Nazi logic, Federalist Society style

There is an argument raging, between Nazi-types (blind, loyal obedience to the needs of an infallible Leader) and those to the left of Nazis over who are the actual Nazis at this perilous moment in history.   Read any history of the Nazi era and you will find not only historical rhymes, but direct one-on-one correlations between the America First movement during Hitler’s time and the one marching for MAGA today.   Here are four:  

1) the Leader is infallible and essential to protection from inhuman enemies; 2) personal loyalty to the Leader is the single most important value in the nation; 3) lies useful to the Leader, especially demonstrable ones, must be repeated with utter conviction, those who call them out angrily demonized and eliminated; 4) the Leader gets to decide who to attack, even kill, and he is always right to do so.

I don’t use the N-word word lightly as a mere insult, it is accurately descriptive of the fascistic regime we are facing now. These Nazis are always in a rage when faced with facts they hate. Check out FBI director Kashyap Patel’s torrent of rage at Adam Schiff, denouncing the senator as a coward and buffoon, for constantly “lying” about Russian electoral interference in 2016 and the Day of Love on January 6, 2021, as Schiff probed into the Trump cover up of the Epstein files and its recent preferential treatment of Epstein’s lying accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell [1].

Nazi logic is instrumental, transactional, designed to beat down your adversary by any means necessary, including inverting cause and effect and lying outright, then indignantly lying about the lie, with rage, more often than not. It is not strictly logic at all, because it is all based on the irrational will of psychopathic leadership whose every crazed word is law, enforced by terror and violence, but Nazi intellectuals will wrap it in a framework that makes it sound, to those unwary, unsophisticated or inclined to the same worldview, irrefutably logical.

Think of John Roberts needing only one lie, that the Senators who voted 98-0 to reaffirm the Voting Rights Act were relying on forty year-old data showing outdated forty year-old racist voting patterns in many states. The rest of his argument (if you lie, as he did, claiming that the Senators hadn’t studied thousands of pages of current voting data at numerous hearings [2]) sounds entirely reasonable. After reading his calm, logical ruling, before you get to the dissent, it seems plausible that the guy’s just calling balls and strikes and fairly ruling on the facts and the law. Check that shit out.

Here comes fellow Federalist Society stalwart Boof Kavanaugh, who denied, during his tantrum laden confirmation hearing, that the “boof” under his photo in the Georgetown Prep yearbook was a reference to having hard alcohol poured into his colon through a tube (it was a reference to his flatulence, he lied, sheepishly), making a particularly incoherent restatement of the demands of justice and the constitution’s Bill of Rights.

Neither, according to this supremely entitled mama’s boy and five other Federalists, is a brown, Spanish speaking or day laboring person’s Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable search, seizure, detention and extrajudicial rendition to foreign countries for the “crime” of displaying traits of a “non-white” culture an “especially weighty legal interest.” Nazi Logic 101.

Notice how Nazi logic twists the question under review: he turns it not into an innocent person’s right to go about their life in peace, protected by the Constitution, but a question of a guilty person using our law to “evade arrest”. Smug motherfucker, too, Boof Kavanaugh.

As the old maxim of justice goes, turned on its head by Nazi logic: better that a thousand innocent people get sent to a dictator’s torture prison, without the due process of a judicial hearing, as required by our laws, than one guilty person avoid their fate!

[1] Ladies and gentlemen, Kashyap Pramod Patel, from earlier today, fed up with being questioned about the concealment of the Epstein files and preferential treatment for sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell (note tepid gavel use by MAGA Senate Judiciary committee chairman, 91 year-old Chuck Grassley, during Patel’s outburst, and his idiotic “both of you be quiet” at the end):

[2] Only when you read Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s dissent (another magnificent piece of clear, precise legal and moral logic) do you realize the audacity of the Roberts majority’s legal sleight of hand. You learn that the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act was passed, after 21 hearings and 15,000 pages of evidence of ongoing discrimination in the states under preclearance, by a vote of 390-33 in the House and, after further debate, 98 to 0 in the Senate. Reading the John Roberts decision you’d have no reason to suspect that President George W. Bush called a news conference to sign the reauthorization into law a week later, as Ginsburg writes (quoting Dubya):

recognizing the need for “further work . . . in the fight against injustice,” and calling the reauthorization “an example of our continued commitment to a united America where every person is valued and treated with dignity and respect.” 

Nepo baby Trump attacks Diversity, Equity and Inclusion hiring by Black president of conservative Virginia university; kills eleven “suspects” on boat in international waters

George Mason University, the home of the Antonin Scalia School of Law, for fuck’s sake, home base for the Heritage Foundation, with professorial chairs endowed by Charles Koch and friends. Black president, Dr. Gregory Washington, is being pressured by Trump’s minions to apologize for comments he made about the importance of diversity hiring in 2020 and 2021. You see, the Civil Rights Act was racist, according to the persecuted U.S. president (and his boiling “brain”, Jewish Nazi Stephen Miller), presumably because it failed to recognize that only rich white men can be true victims of vicious, systemic racism. You can’t make this shit up, as one of Trump’s supremely flexible appointees stated in chastising the school president in a recent official statement:

The Education Department’s assistant secretary for civil rights, Craig Trainor, upped the pressure in a statement last month, saying Dr. Washington “waged a university-wide campaign to implement unlawful D.E.I. policies that intentionally discriminate on the basis of race,” the statement said, adding, “You can’t make this up.”

Read all about it.

Unfortunately, you can’t make this up. However, everywhere you look our low IQ, increasingly demented mad leader is making himself less and less useful to the billionaire tech fascists who put him into power. How do you like this headline?

First another reminder: there is absolutely no connection, beyond years of purely superficial, 100% transactional friendship between Donald Trump and convicted procurer of underaged “prostitutes” Jeffery “Hoax!” Epstein. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Suspected drug smugglers, you get that? I think you’re a drug smuggler, you make me suspicious, I’m a very stable genius, I can kill you and everybody around you, who I also suspect is a drug smuggler. I’m Duterte! [1] I will kill you! This is a turn on Alan Dershowitz’s incoherent defense of the big guy at one of his impeachments (subsequently written into US law by the Koch Six): if the president truly believes he has a good reason to violate the law, he can’t be punished for that.

Note the NY Times characteristic Nazi-tolerant delicacy in framing this obscenity — the issue in their subhead is not, God forbid, that this is clearly the alarming claim of a dangerously unhinged, murderous, dictatorial psychopath. The last guy who did it is in front of the International Criminal Court. We, at the Grey Lady, note that it appears to be problematic to treat criminals (who have been convicted after a trial) as enemy combatants, although, admittedly, the power the Orange polyp claims is to treat suspected criminals (no trial, nothing but my suspicion and your death!) as wartime combatants — and summarily kill them, as he did to eleven people on a boat the other day.

We are living in the shit, boys and girls, and the NY Times is innocently helping. For every important article highlighting grotesque fascistic excess by this desperate regime, we get several mealy mouthed headlines like this, to keep things fair. To not piss off an obviously insane, revenge-twisted maniac to take some kind of profit crushing retaliatory action, one supposes.

[1] Mr Rodrigo Roa Duterte, born on 28 March 1945 and a national of the Republic of the Philippines. President of the Philippines, Mayor of Davao City, and allegedly the founder and head of the Davao Death Squad (‘DDS’), at the time of the relevant conduct.

Arrest warrant issued on 7 March 2025

Allegedly responsible for the crime against humanity of murder, committed on the territory of the Republic of the Philippines between 1 November 2011 and 16 March 2019 in the context of the ‘war on drugs’ campaign. . . On 12 March 2025, Mr Duterte was surrendered to the International Criminal Court after being arrested by the authorities of the Republic of the Philippines in accordance with the warrant of arrest.

Literal Nazi fucks

Who but a Nazi pulls this kind of brutal, illegal shit at 1 a.m. of a holiday weekend? This is from Labor Day:

The rush to deport children in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend, in apparent violation of the law, looked a great deal like the administration’s removal of undocumented immigrants from Venezuela to the notorious terrorist CECOT prison in El Salvador in March. At the time, President Donald J. Trump denied that he had signed the order invoking the 1798 Alien Enemies Act the administration used to justify the rendition of the men to El Salvador. “Other people handled it,” he said, even though his signature is on the document that appears in the Federal Register.

source

I pose the question again: who but a Nazi targets the children of “others” for illegal deportation, at 1 a.m., to a country they, or their parents, fled for fear of persecution?

A regime that renders people they deem alien enemies, of their children, in the dark of night, to places like war-torn South Sudan and a torture prison in El Salvador, is not a democracy governed by laws. It is a totalitarian regime driven by a lust for unchecked power. These insane, enraged, cruelty-addicted fuckers are Dick “Darkside” Cheney on steroids. Adolf Eichmann (and his ilk) got nothing on rabid “MAGA” loyalists Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan and their foul-smelling Nazi ilk.

Of course, nobody ever accused Eichmann of protecting pedophile sex traffickers and their clients.

Nice if-pology idiotically framed as an apology from judge scolded by Gorsuch and Kavanaugh about their new rule on binding precedent

This is one of the scariest distortions I’ve read in the New York Times recently. The article focuses on the conditional apology given by a Reagan appointed federal judge after he was scolded by two bullies on the 6-3 Leonard Leo majority Supreme Court for not following “binding precedent” — an unsigned summary order, with no legal reasoning they released on an emergency basis to serve President Project 2025.  Their ruling on massive cuts to the The Department of Education, they scolded, obviously applied to cutting NIH grants to study cancer, Alzheimer’s, HIV and similar deadly plagues. This was a bit of unprecedented bullying by these radical right ideologues.   The Grey Lady styled it as the federal judge (who ruled correctly) messing up and legitimately being required to apologize.

Let us also note that an emergency application from Special Counsel Jack Smith languished for seven months before the 6-3 far right majority granted candidate Trump unprecedented blanket immunity for any crimes committed by a US president as part of his “core duties” (try to imagine the hypothetical where a president would have to commit a crime to do his job, the six provided none).   Their delayed ruling effectively ended the prosecutions of Trump for violating the Espionage Act (by taking classified documents to his home when he was out of office), obstructing justice (having his lawyers lie by claiming he’d returned everything), and trying to overturn the results of an election he was well aware he lost. 

In glaring contrast, every one of Trump’s emergency applications, complaining he’s not being allowed to commit random illegal acts, is immediately heard and almost invariably decided by the far right six in the hardened sociopath’s favor. As was his emergency application after he was busted by federal judges for illegally firing tens of thousands of civil servants without cause and violating other laws.

Here is the Gray Lady’s idiotic headline about the Supreme Court extending its power in a hideously fascistic manner (while neutering lower federal courts):

Judge Apologizes to Conservative Justices in Case Over N.I.H. Cuts

Judge Young said on Tuesday that he had not realized he was expected to rely on a slim three-page order issued with minimal legal reasoning in April to his case dealing with a different agency.

“Before we do anything, I really feel it’s incumbent upon me to — on the record here — to apologize to Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh if they think that anything this court has done has been done in defiance of a precedential action of the Supreme Court of the United States,” said Judge Young, who was appointed to the bench by President Ronald Reagan in 1985.

“I can do nothing more than to say as honestly as I can: I certainly did not so intend, and that is foreign in every respect to the nature of how I have conducted myself as a judicial officer,” he added.

Since the beginning of President Trump’s second term, the Supreme Court’s conservative majority has sided with White House in nearly every case it has considered.

Source

Wrong headline.  Wrong framing.  Here’s a better headline, off the top of my head:

Respected federal judge bullied by Trump appointees for not recognizing their unsigned, three page “emergency” shadow docket ruling as binding precedent.

Honestly, I don’t know what’s wrong with the New York Times sometimes, they only intermittently serve the interests of democracy in their reporting.

For one thing, the federal judge’s apology was conditional — if I offended you, I’m sorry. This is known as an if-pology. The New York Times apparently doesn’t make this distinction. The judge defended his actions while “apologizing”– how was he expected to know an unsigned three page emergency ruling was now binding federal precedent according to two members of the highly partisan Supreme Court majority? How indeed? He had to be told by two of the six doctrinaire jurists who made their way up the far right judicial pipeline by proving their brazenness and fidelity to the dogma of their extremist judicial fraternity.

Read the rest of the article, it doesn’t spell things out with the greatest of clarity, but it eventually manages to make clear how offended the judge who apologized was to be singled out this way for an ass whupping by Kavanaugh and Gorsuch (two prep school bullies whose powerful mothers both assured them they were destined to sit on the Supreme Court). Another triumph of incoherence by Project 2025’s architects, with a snazzy assist from the journal of record.

Supreme Court precedents are binding rulings that all federal courts must follow. They are traditionally based on articulated legal reasoning, analyzing and evaluating the arguments of both sides in light of past Supreme Court decisions directly impacting the issue in question. Supreme Court holdings are based on centuries of case law, legislative history, the text of the Constitution, the merits of both sides of the constitutional argument presented.

These emergency “shadow docket” rulings, sometimes only a paragraph, answer only the narrow burning question placed in front of the court for immediate, emergency decision.  The Supreme Court, in the past, has rarely ruled this way, except on the eve of an execution, for example.  It is now routine for Trump to run to his appointees for these “shadow docket” rulings which are made without briefing or argument, citing no cases, no precedent, no legal analysis.  His record is something like 16-0 in these unsigned majority  orders.

To force federal judges to consider these abbreviated, unsigned emergency rulings “binding precedent” is an abomination on the Constitution, the specialty of this particular group of six transactional corporate assholes in robes. Shame on the Grey Lady for helping to obscure how radical and dangerous this latest overreach by these judicial arsonists is.

Nice bit (hic) from Jair Bolsonaro

Jair Bolsonaro, who managed, with the help of right wing judges, to have his popular opponent jailed for fake corruption charges right before former insurrectionist Bolsonaro was elected president of Brazil, (“lock him up! lock him up!”) lost his reelection bid after one term (to the man he locked up). Then, advised by Steve Bannon, he tried a January 6 style overthrow of the election results, and immediately (while still president) fled to the US for health reasons. He’s now on trial for his crimes against the constitution of Brazil. Courtesy of the Grey Lady:

He didn’t appear in court because of poor health, his defense team told reporters outside the courthouse. Ahead of the trial, one of his sons told a Brazilian news site Mr. Bolsonaro had been suffering from debilitating hiccups that the former president attributes to complications from a stabbing attack on the campaign trail in 2018. [1]

Trump’s “illegally” (subject to unsigned shadow docket order by the Federalist Six) imposed 75,000% tariff on Brazil when it stubbornly refused to halt the totally unfair persecution of democratically elected Hall of Fame hiccupper Jair Bolsonaro who had the presidency illegally stolen from him by communists and intellectuals in 2022 and didn’t do anything Trump and his people didn’t also do, literally, perfectly, legally, in the months prior to, and on, the Day of Love, January 6, 2021. Many people, billionaires and poor people alike, love dictators!

[1] 

Mr. Bolsonaro, 70, has been under house arrest, wearing an ankle monitor, for weeks. Then, over the weekend, Brazilian authorities tightened security measures, placing police officers around his home amid worries that he may try to flee and possibly seek refuge at the U.S. Embassy near his home.

Prosecutors accuse Mr. Bolsonaro and seven members of his inner circle of overseeing a vast conspiracy to cling to power after his defeat at the polls in 2022, seeking to overturn the results, trying to enlist the military in their plot and drafting plans to poison Mr. Bolsonaro’s rival, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who is now Brazil’s president.

Mr. Bolsonaro and the other defendants face criminal charges, including the “violent abolition of the democratic rule of law” and “coup d’état.” If found guilty, Mr. Bolsonaro could be sentenced to more than 40 years in prison.

Note, the scrupulously fair to Nazis NY Times (see my upcoming post for more chilling details) presently does not allow me to easily attach a “gift” link to their articles.  This is a new innovation, I was able to attach a gift link yesterday. If you have a subscription to the NYT, you can read the rest of the article, perhaps now you can even without one.   The gist of the article is in this footnote.

How Nazis always do it

When it comes to manipulating public opinion, particularly regarding an embarrassment to the party in power, lead with an aggressive, lying attack directly contradicting the actual truth.

The Environmental Protection Agency [1], a thoughtful, forward-looking Nixon creation hated by Project 2025 and Leonard Leo’s Supreme Court, had its legs cut off by the 6-3 majority.  They ruled that the EPA does not have the authority to mandate carbon emissions from existing power plants. The 2022 decision also opened the door for a future Unitary Executive to have the final word over government scientists on most things formerly protected by the EPA.    Not enough for Project 2025, the arms and head had to be cut off too. 

So President Project 2025 obliged.

The Trump administration fired at least seven employees for signing a letter criticizing the agency’s leadership for undermining “the EPA mission of protecting human health and the environment.” The firings are, Amudalat Ajasa of the Washington Post noted, “an escalation of the administration’s effort to clamp down on dissent within the federal bureaucracy.”

Source

Here’s Trump appointee-speak (note the consistent sprachregelung, with piquant, aromatic notes of the boss’s seat) for what the EPA, and the entire federal government, which has the final say in every state, now stands for (and it’s not the so-called environment, woke mind virus infested cucks!)

“The Environmental Protection Agency has a zero-tolerance policy for career officials using their agency position and title to unlawfully undermine, sabotage, and undercut the will of the American public that was clearly expressed at the ballot box last November,” an EPA spokesperson said.

But [Heather adds], increasingly, it seems obvious that the administration is claiming a mandate for policies that voters did not intend to endorse.

Like Dr. Brainworm’s clueless concepts of a plan to make random little kids in airports not strike him as so mitochondrially defective.

Fuck those fucking putos.

They only get away with this incoherent, immoral, indecent, crude, lying lawlessness if good people stop fighting them at every turn. It is on us all, to pace ourselves and do whatever is in our power to do, Remember to stay encouraged by the uniformly high level of reckless idiocy and constant failure displayed by these mirthless assclowns [2] as they carry out their boss’s wildly unpopular cruelties. Do not accept deliberate incoherence as the final word.

[1]

The Environmental Protection Agency is an independent agency of the United States government tasked with environmental protection matters. President Richard Nixon proposed the establishment of EPA on July 9, 1970; it began operation on December 2, 1970, after Nixon signed an executive order. Wikipedia

[2] They might actually be asshats:

In the word’s official entry in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, lexicographers theorized that it could be a play on the phrase to “have one’s head up one’s ass,” an insult which, if pictured literally, would indeed result in the person’s ass serving as a sort of hat. However, the author concluded, “a more precise history will depend on the location of further attestations.” source

~88 deaths AN HOUR from “DOGE” (Project 2025) cuts is not news

With an insane and increasingly demented Unitary Executive empowered by a far-right Supreme Court to commit as many crimes as he likes as part of this “core duties”, it’s no surprise he’s been able to destroy as much as he has in seven short months (while personally making literally billions since taking over as US CEO). His goal is clearly American Carnage, creating the violent, bloody battleground for his childish dream of world domination. This dystopian dream requires off the charts desperation among average Americans, violence, mayhem and unpunished murder. His more immediate dream, adding to his personal fortune, has been advanced by about $3,000,000,000 since he gilded the Oval Office.

He’s surrounded by supremely ambitious, unprincipled loyalists, backed by a dozen powerful “Libertarian” think tanks and judicial pipelines (all owned by the same handful of billionaires), who fund nefarious projects and get deadly legislation passed, policies designed to maximize fear, instability and mass desperation, to bring about the social disintegration needed for violence and dictatorship.

Who, but a Nazi, is focused on “mass deportation”, particularly of law abiding residents who pose no threat to anyone? American carnage, now! It’s their only hope for permanent minority rule.

With so much disgusting offal hitting the fan every hour of every day, orchestrated by rabid chaos agents frantically working for a visibly declining old maniac, it’s hard to focus on any one aspect of it for more than a moment. That is by design. It enables all kinds of abuses, humming along in the background. For starters, get rid of FEMA, Emergency Management after killer storms is just more woke mind virus. Same goes for the CDC, woke mind virus stubbornly insisting on vaccines for pandemics!

Donald Trump’s team, by arbitrarily shuttering USAID, the agency of American soft power in the poorer parts of the world, is quietly committing mass murder. More than 60,000 people, most of them children, die every MONTH since team Trump nullified Congress’s appropriation of funds to USAID. This horrific fact is no longer reported, it’s among so many other senseless acts of willful idiocy performed daily by the president’s competitive sycophants. Countless child deaths, at the stroke of an insane unelected bureaucrat’s pen, the stuff of nightmares.

Doing a search just now I learned that the last media mentions of this ongoing international slaughter by an American president were in June or early July when the number killed, mostly children, was reported as over 300,000 dead so far. Understood, when an insanely cruel man leads a heartless movement bent on permanent enforcement of their privilege, many ongoing atrocities will simply have to get overlooked.

It is like the National Rifle Association’s lobbyists prevailing for decades on the issue that it is unfair to include suicide by gun (more than 50% of all American death from gunshot) in the annual tally of American gun homicides. Dead bodies are considered, by a certain economic philosophy, to be externalities, unfortunate, perhaps, but part of the cost of doing business, and always subject to negotiation. So, according to the NRA, gunshot being the number one cause of death for children below the age of 18 in American is bad enough without by conflating it with tens of thousands of annual voluntary self-killings that don’t hurt anyone else.

When the Supreme Court condemned girls just old enough to menstruate to bear to term and give birth to their rapists’ babies, if their state legislature so ordered, I thought the outrage of that barbarously medieval ruling would shock people awake and cause a tidal wave at the polls that could not be countered by fraud. Take in the full horror of it: the girl is eleven, she has a period, she gets raped by a pedophile. JESUS SAYS SHE MUST CARRY THE SACRED FETUS TO TERM, say the majority of “Red” states newly empowered to enforce radical Christian views. No matter if you and your daughter are Christians, Muslims, Hindus, atheists, Jews, Buddhists, Wiccans, you must obey what five rich, unappealable, “justices” say Jesus Christ commands under the US Constitution. I don’t know why that MAGA crime against girls and women wasn’t the single most decisive issue of the 2024 election. I pictured the ad with the blurred face of the ten year-old who was forced to flee her state to terminate a pregnancy initiated by a rapist of children. I saw this irrefutable ad in my mind, MAGA is the party of forced pregnancy and birth for child rape victims, but don’t recall ever seeing it anywhere else.

After one of the world’s richest psychopaths generously donated $250,000,000 to convicted felon Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, and Trump was elected, Elon Musk received full access to the personal data of all Americans and the files and personnel of every agency that was investigating him. Musk also had carte blanche to defund and close down any agency that particularly offended him. USAID [1] was one of these agencies. At the time Musk and his bogus “DOGE” operation cut USAID funding by 83% and slashed its staff, it was estimated that as a result of services and medications not delivered and food rotting in warehouses, 103 people AN HOUR were dying worldwide. A virtual 9/11 death toll (2,977) every day — 2,472 dead EVERY DAY because Elon Musk’s teenaged hackers followed Mr. Neurodivergent’s orders to take down this massive source of “waste, fraud and abuse.”

USAID expenditures amounted to less than 1% of the US budget, and the agency saved millions of vulnerable lives annually. However, USAID was apparently investigating Musk’s selective use of Starlink in various war zones and “DOGE” had a mandate from Trump and the Heritage Foundation to radically slash the federal budget by any means necessary (with full, unchallengeable presidential pardons at the ready for anyone caught “over-reaching”).

Since the closure of USAID (after “DOGE” canceled the agency, Marco “MAGA” Rubio ordered USAID’s website removed from the internet) hundreds of thousands, mostly children, have died worldwide, particularly in war zones where the US has long provided life saving humanitarian aid.

I searched for an update about the USAID cuts and there is no news more recent than June or early July, it’s simply not a story anymore, with the high-powered firehouse spraying fecal “content” 24/7 as advocated by Sloppy Steve Bannon. Though, by sheer chance, Project 2025 made another move today to claw back the rest of the shuttered agency’s funds, through an untested legal theory called presidential “pocket recission”, taking back money already appropriated by Trump’s majority Congress. By chance this was reported in the NY Times, in the hours since I started writing this post earlier today:

The request largely targets accounts funding the United States’ contributions to the United Nations and economic development and aid programs run by the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development, which has already largely been dismantled by the Trump administration.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio hailed the proposal on Friday, saying that none of the targeted programs “are in America’s interest, which is why the president is taking decisive action to put America and Americans first.”

The single biggest clawback would be a $445 million cut to U.S. funding of peacekeeping operations abroad, including through the United Nations. The request also proposes a $132 million rescission of the $340 million approved by Congress for the Democracy Fund at the State Department. The White House’s proposed budget released earlier this year suggested eliminating that program entirely.

Millions die in distant lands every day, nature and humans are cruel, what are you going to do? It’s like raped girls, bad things happen to good people, like the kids murdered the other day while praying, though their souls got thoughts and prayers from MAGA.

The estimate of hourly deaths as a result of the Musk/Trump/Project 2025 USAID cuts is currently 88 dead per hour. You can see the breakdown of how these deaths are happening and how many of the dead are children, dying easily preventable deaths. Should we be relieved that only 2,112 people are dying every day, down more than 300 a day from the earliest projections? Or is outrage more appropriate when rich, corrupt psychopaths, at the behest of our nation’s greediest billionaires, cut off a program, fully funded by our Congress, that saved tens of millions of lives over the last two decades? The good news is that the wealthiest 1% got even wealthier, so, even if just under a million have to die unnecessarily in 2025, it wasn’t a total loss.

Adolf Eichmann was tried, convicted and executed for his role in the mass murder of millions of Jews and others he’d had shipped to death camps. He insisted that he’d never killed anyone, Jew or any other person, and no evidence was ever produced to show he had. He claimed he’d only done his job, as was his lawful duty under the laws of Nazi Germany and the oath of personal loyalty he’d taken to Adolf Hitler. Contrary to the myth that Eichmann was the architect of the Final Solution, he was not the mastermind of anything, except the logistics of moving large numbers of doomed people to their places of execution. He was very good at delivering these condemned souls to their final nightmare deaths. Eichmann was a bragging, self-aggrandizing bureaucrat of limited imagination who worked tirelessly to please his bosses and make himself look good by “getting results”. Much like the highly competitive crew of grossly unqualified sycophants who pretend to love the taste of the big orange guy’s lowest sphincter.

The same addled sycophants are frantically busy protecting the boss and a group of powerful white male pedophiles who were supplied with teenaged girls by longtime close Trump buddy Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein very likely blackmailed them after secretly videotaping their statutory rapes of minors. The criminally unaccountable Talented Mr. Epstein, a billionaire with no obvious source of his billions, of course blackmailed the wealthy, powerful white men who came to “party” with him. Why WOULDN’T he? He even got a secret non-prosecution deal from Trump’s future Secretary of Labor, since disgraced, Alex Acosta. Click the hideous clause below to read the whole seven page 2007 “sweetheart” deal the late Mr. Epstein, with tactical support from Mr. Dershowitz, negotiated for himself for the “crime” of … uh… hiring a few underaged hookers.

The legal notice to victims required by law before settling such cases… uh… you know what? Screw the “victims”?!! Who has suffered more than that powerful friend of many of the world’s most powerful white men, Jeffrey Epstein? Only one name comes to mind.

[1] The United States Agency for International Development was the agency within the United States federal government primarily responsible for foreign aid. Established in 1961 during the Cold War by President John F. Kennedy, USAID was designed to counter the Soviet Union through the use of soft power across the world. Wikipedia

A very, very, VERY stable genius

Calling Chicago, Illinois, a “a disaster” and “a killing field,” Trump referred to Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker as “a slob.” Trump complained that Pritzker had said Trump was infringing on American freedom and called Trump a dictator. Trump went on:

“A lot of people are saying maybe we like a dictator. I don’t like a dictator. I’m not a dictator. I’m a man with great common sense and a smart person. And when I see what’s happening to our cities, and then you send in troops instead of being praised, they’re saying you’re trying to take over the Republic. These people are sick.”

source

This, from the Grey Lady, five months before the stable genius became the 47th president of the United States of American Carnage:

He is easily distracted. He halted in the middle of another extended monologue when he noticed a buzzing insect. “Oh, there’s a fly,” he said. “Oh. I wonder where the fly came from. See? Two years ago, I wouldn’t have had a fly up here. You’re changing rapidly. But we can’t take it any longer.”

But like some people approaching the end of their eighth decade, he is not open to correction. “Trump is never wrong,” he said recently in Wisconsin. “I am never, ever wrong.”

Nothing to see here, dummies!

Trump’s/Official MAGA’s position:

Enough with the Epstein hoax! All he did was, allegedly, ALLEGEDLY, sexually “abuse” a few dozen underaged teenagers, teenaged prostitutes who claim they were “sexually abused” but were all paid, these “victims”. A bunch of little hookers, if you want to know the truth. And Epstein, who I knew only in passing, is dead, so case closed, he killed himself, whatever the conspiracy theorists are saying about the complete unaltered video footage my 100% transparent DOJ released of his final minutes before his suicide. Bill Barr confirmed that it was suicide.

My DOJ fired the corrupt prosecutor, Comey’s daughter, who got the conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell, a woman I wish well (Ghislaine, not Maureen Comey!), and my former criminal attorney, #2 at DOJ (and smells like it too) got assurances from her, in ten hours of recent prison interviews, that, no matter how many times the alleged 1,000 person FBI team allegedly had to redact my name from the so-called Epstein files (which don’t exist) I had nothing to do with those young beauties Epstein was paying for sex.

In fact, Ghislaine praised me personally, and as president, and called me a perfect “gentleman” (which is why all of my phone calls are perfect) regarding the young gold-diggers-for-hire Epstein ALLEGEDLY surrounded himself with. What possible motive could that fine, well-born English woman, youngest daughter of my good friend Robert Maxwell, have for lying about my innocence? Think about that, you hapless Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers. Thank you for your attention to this very unimportant matter!

Nothing to hear here! Epstein is a lying pedophile who committed suicide! I barely knew him!!!

Trump: OUT OF CONTROL Smithsonian ignores the good side of slavery!

Here’s the malignant Orange Polyp in his own words, from Maureen Dowd’s Trump’s Slavish Stupidity:

Trump is unmoved. He wants to live in the Whiter House. On Truth Social, he ranted: “The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been — Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future,” adding, “This Country cannot be WOKE, because WOKE IS BROKE.”

He said that he had “instructed my attorneys to go through the Museums, and start the exact same process that has been done with Colleges and Universities where tremendous progress has been made.”

This is from Dan Rather, in a post called Culture Crash:

The American Alliance of Museums countered. “Freedom of thought and expression are foundational American values, and museums uphold them by creating spaces where people can engage with history, science, art, and culture in ways that are honest, fact-based, and thought-provoking.”

Honest, fact-based thought is exactly what this president is trying to extinguish.
