Very Stable Genius at work

Never the sharpest knife in the drawer, not his psychotic father’s first pick for heir to the Trump Empire, a lifelong bully, abuser, sexual predator, compulsive liar and childishly aggrieved control freak, he is also now, increasingly, showing signs of dementia. His father also was demented by the time he was DJT’s age. He was not, however, demented enough to let his idiot middle son take over his affairs when Donald tried to make himself master of his father’s fortune while the old man was still alive. To the demented Frederick Christ Trump’s credit, he surrounded himself with lawyers when Donald arrived to get his father to sign over control of his fortune. Of course, as soon as the old man died, Donald defied his father’s written wishes and dissolved the Trump empire at a 40% discount to the buyer, something only the most stable genius would ever dream of doing.

Jimmy Kimmel nailed it the other night. He played a typical incoherent Trump “response” to a question. He looked at the audience for a moment and said “what is he even talking about?” The only proper follow up from any reporter talking to Trump, he said, is “Mr. President, what are you talking about?” ICE agent shoots woman in the face three times because he was stressed at being dragged by a car six months earlier, after he broke the window and tased the driver (the driver is now awaiting sentencing, mind you). “She was the worst of the worst, she ran him over with her car, tried to kill him, she’s a domestic terrorist, still at large, my ratings are still the best of anybody all time, everyone is saying,” says the dotard-in-chief.

Here’s a bit of Heather Cox Richardson’s letter from last night. She begins by noting that all this shitting on the Oval Office desk and have his underlings eat it on camera (my image, not her’s, she speaks of Venezuela, Greenland, ICE murder) has succeeded in one thing — knocking the Epstein files and DOJ’s deliberate contempt of law off the front pages.

. . . This morning, Trump’s social media account posted: “if the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT, which many Presidents have done before me, and quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great State. Thank you for you [sic] attention to this matter! President DJT.”. . .

. . . The images coming out of Minnesota have been compared to those of Public Safety Commissioner Bull Connor ordering police officers and firefighters to use fire hoses against the children marching during the civil rights movement in Birmingham, Alabama, or of law enforcement officers beating civil rights marchers in Selma, Alabama. A family with six children in a van caught in the clash last night were hit with tear gas and air bags detonated by a flash-bang grenade. Three of the children, including a six-month-old infant, were taken to a hospital by ambulance for treatment. “My kids were innocent. I was innocent. My husband was innocent. This shouldn’t have happened,” the mother told Kilat Fitzgerald of Fox9 in Minneapolis. “We were just trying to go home.” . . .

. . . One of the other things Trump’s statements have driven out of the news is the revelation from yesterday that the U.S. has sold $500 million worth of Venezuelan oil and is keeping the money in Qatar rather than in U.S. banks. Trump claims that he has the power to manage that money, and is trying to prevent its capture by the oil companies that have prior claims against Venezuela for property seized when it nationalized the oil fields. . .

. . . The strain also showed in Trump’s fury on Tuesday when a worker at a Ford plant Trump was touring as an attempt to appeal to his weakening base shouted “pedophile protector” at him. Rather than simply ignoring the heckler, as politicians usually do, Trump gave him the middle finger and said, “F*ck you. F*ck you.”

The NY Times published a definitive debunking of the Trump lie parroted by ICE Barbie Kristi Noem, her soul-dead assistant “secretary for public affairs” Tricia McLaughlin, JD Vance and other lackies, that murdered Minnesota woman Renee Good deserved to be summarily killed because she’s a murderer. Hats off to the NY Times. They suck in major, critical ways, and have often been handmaidens of American fascism (click the Grey Lady link at the side here for examples), but they also publish very important, authoritative investigative pieces. This is one of them. Check out this video by clicking on the image:

Some nice, fresh Nazi horseshit for you.

Notice the sampling of the “worst of the worst” dirtbags, here.  The presumption of guilt, for the small sampling of “illegals” merely charged with various crimes, is striking.   Not as much as a killer declared innocent for shooting a mild-mannered woman in the face three times, of course, or the heavyweight convicted criminals Trump keeps pardoning, but, you know what I’m saying.

Radio Hitler

Why would the public have any reaction at all to the deadly on-camera shooting by an ICE officer, three times in the face, of an unarmed, peaceful woman who was monitoring ICE abuses? It’s not as if the administration immediately exonerated the murderer and began investigating the murdered woman and her wife for treasonous associations…

Criminal crackdown indeed. But the criminals are an insane and murderous felon president and his lawless lackies who now justify the cold blooded murder of unarmed citizens peaceably assembled . They’re currently employing a showy swarm of untrained, violent, super-sensitive. highly armed, easily enraged masked goons/content creators breaking down doors without warrants, forcing people to the ground, using illegal chokeholds, beatings, tear gas, pepper spray and deadly bullets. These violent goons have been unleashed by unqualified, unprincipled, in many cases insane and/or very stupid, appointees of the most stable genius ever to demolish a wing of the White House without a permit.

“Mike Pence betrayed us! JD Vance betrayed us! Pam Bondi betrayed us! Traitors everywhere!”

“Shut the fuck up about Epstein. I never even met that fucking pervert, who was Clinton’s BFF. Clinton!!! The guy who is defying Congress!”

This grotesque misstatement of American law deliberately echoes the Nazi ethos that the state exercising the will of the infallible Leader is the only entity with rights. If a woman who disagrees with a violent government crackdown on peaceful, noncriminal residents smiles and acts with mild, arguable, disrespect: shoot her three times in the fucking face and investigate her and her grieving widow for disrespecting the regime — and being dangerous, insane, fucking “domestic terrorists”. In other words, Jews or Muslims, or possibly Somalis! Definitely queers hated by Jesus Christ our savior.

Make no mistake what we are dealing with. Every single move they are making is from Mr. Hitler’s playbook. There was nothing original in that murderous moron’s playbook either, his regime just took it to its greatest heights, until now.

Minnesota and the state’s two largest cities, Minneapolis and St. Paul, also sued the Trump administration yesterday. Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison called the federal immigration operation that began on January 6 “a federal invasion.” “These poorly trained, aggressive and armed agents of the federal state have terrorized Minnesota with widespread unlawful conduct.” source

Confederate forces invade the Union

Just as it becomes clear that the Nazis, and their heirs, actually won World War Two, in terms of “corporate accountability,” The Big Lie, mass media propaganda, and such, the old Confederacy, with its quaint ideas about the right of the wealthy few to own other people, is currently ascendant in the land of the free and the home of the brave. It has taken them more than a century and a half, but the actual and spiritual heirs of slaveholders now have taken power again, and are intent on imposing their will on the rest of us, whether we want it or not. Especially if we don’t want it, actually.

It is striking how the presidential election map always lights up solid red in the former Confederacy. This goes back to LBJ’s betrayal of white racists by signing the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act into law in 1964 and 1965. Then you had Nixon’s southern strategy: win over all the southern racist Democrats to vote Republican. Reagan’s people had the brilliant idea to begin his presidential campaign in the Mississippi town where Schwerner, Chaney and Goodman were lynched by the KKK, in concert with local law enforcement. Wink, wink! Dog whistles were eventually replaced with Trump’s overt racist messaging: “Mexicans are rapists,” “Blacks are eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats, they’re eating the pets!”, a ridiculous lie Kamala Harris rightfully laughed at, but one that likely garnered millions of votes for the once and future Hater-in-Chief. No Black bitch is going to laugh at our boy!!!

There are immigrants all over the country, millions of them in “Red states”. President Project 2025 provided tens of billions of dollars for a federal “Immigration” police force to be deployed in “anarchist jurisdictions,” places where Democrats were the elected leaders. My mate referred to these bullying, sometimes murderous, untrained, masked ICE goon squads as Brown Shirts. I corrected her. Brown Shirts helped Hitler come to power, think of the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and their violent ilk. “Gestapo,” I corrected her, official, uniformed, government-paid forces employed by the Nazi government to carry out the will of the [insane] leader. Without a doubt many of these newly recruited ICE goons were taking shits in the Capitol building five years ago, peacefully and patriotically smearing their feces on the walls as the Confederate battle flag was marched by.

American Nazis have created a workaround to the laws that prevent federal troops from being used as domestic police. Using newly fortified, untrained, unaccountable Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, of course, in conjunction with the forces commanded by “commander-at-large” of the US Border Patrol, moral midget and SS wannabe Gregory “Perjury, so fucking what?” Bovino, operating hundreds of miles from the nearest border, is a no brainer. Brutalize, provoke, murder, announce that the murder victim was a fucking bitch who fucking deserved to be shot in the fucking face, get an outraged reaction when you start tear gassing peaceful protesters and now you can call in the Department of War under the 1807 Insurrection Act to crush dangerous radicals intent on dissent, wielding their so-called First Amendment rights like they were the sacred Second Amendment.

Trump, at his weakest and most vulnerable, is also at his most desperate. Guided only by what’s left of his once average mind, and what he cynically refers to as “my own morality” (ironic words coming from a serial fraudster, compulsive liar and rapist) he’s counting on fanatics like Gregory Fucking Bovino (above), Pam Bondi, Kashyap Patel, Kristi Noem, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., “Maximum Lethality” Hegseth, to keep turning the screws, and flagrantly violating laws and court orders, until something big pops. Why he hasn’t had one of his J6 Proud Boys shoot some ICE officers by now, from the midst of a peaceful crowd, is a mystery to me. Equally baffling, why hasn’t Putin arranged some kind of 9/11 mass death terrorism incident inside the now undefended, divided, demoralized United States? Pondering these questions is terrifying, because Trump’s morality includes killing as many innocent people as it might take to “win” a given “transaction”.

If you still think this unfunny clown is not capable of doing everything his idol Adolf Hitler eventually did, I don’t know what you base that belief on. The threat of mass murder is equally severe and our courage is the only thing standing between these modern day Nazis and a restoration of law and order, and a new dedication to justice and actual accountability for powerful criminals. Despair is an obvious move, but it is one we can’t afford at this perilous moment in our history. Despair, it’s been said, is a luxury we can’t afford. Remember, Trump has never been weaker and his “ideas” more wildly unpopular. Some fraction of his diehard 33% will die for him, maybe, but it’s important to focus on the 67% of us who, horrified by a modern day Hitler and his movement, say “hell no!”.

JD Vance, Peter Thiel’s AI creation

Artificial Intelligence is created in the likeness of its programmer. Elon Musk’s Grok was tweaked to be less politically correct and after spouting many Nazi quotes, denying the mass murder conducted by the Hitler regime, told a user that if it could worship a deity that god would be Adolf Hitler [1]. Musk’s team gave the Nazi AI bot a few chagrinned tweaks after that. Peter Andreas Thiel, a German and American entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and political activist, makes Elon Musk look like a person of ordinary sensibility and sensitivity. Thiel created JD Vance, hired him, made him rich, poured millions into his Senate campaign and twisted corrupt arms to get him into the Vice Presidency. It’s no wonder Vance is a steaming pile of irrational hatred, he’s Thiel-based AI in human form.

In what some MAGA genius thought was a gotcha, Vance posted the cellphone video shot by ICE officer Jonathan Ross moments before he shot an unarmed woman three times in the face. He posted this as the proof that the dead woman was a dangerous, vicious, hate-filled domestic terrorist who deserved exactly what she got. Her last words to the shooter were a calm “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you,” delivered with a smile. His last words to her, after killing her seconds later, were an emphatic “fucking bitch”. Two sides to every story. Here’s rabidly ambitious conspiracy theorist JD Vance’s take on the ICE officer’s deadly actions.

“What the press has done in lying about this innocent law enforcement officer is disgusting. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.” The Department of Homeland Security reposted Vance’s post.

In MAGA world guilt and innocence depend entirely on which side of the Koch brothers/Heritage Foundation/FOX news-created divide you are on. No investigation or evidence is needed to declare someone on your side absolutely innocent, even if he shot a mild-mannered woman in the face three times. The brutalized or murdered protester is always at fault, a dangerous, deranged “thug,” as has long been the case with every unarmed Black person killed by police. There’s no such thing as poisoning the jury pool when you publicly, immediately, insist that the videos showing the murder from various angles are all lies and that the truth of the killer’s innocence is beyond dispute.

It turns out Jonathan Ross had been involved in an incident with a driver where, after smashing the guy’s window and tasering him, the driver took off, dragging Ross and cutting his arm with the broken window glass. The driver is awaiting sentencing on his assault on Ross… The New York Times:

The ICE officer, Jonathan Ross, had been involved in a previous incident with a driver. After smashing the guy’s window and shooting him with a stun gun, the driver took off. The New York Times:

Mr. Ross and other agents were trying to apprehend a Guatemalan man who had been convicted of sexual abuse in Minnesota, according to court records. The agents followed the man, Roberto Carlos Muñoz, as he drove away from his house, and later pulled him over.

When Mr. Ross told the driver to lower his window and open his door, Mr. Muñoz refused, an F.B.I. agent wrote in an affidavit. Mr. Ross then pulled his Taser, shattered the rear driver’s side window of Mr. Muñoz’s car and reached in with one arm to try to unlock a door. At that point, Mr. Muñoz shifted into drive and pulled away, dragging the agent.

“He just took off in a rapid speed,” Mr. Ross said during Mr. Muñoz’s December trial, according to a transcript. “At this point, I feared for my life.”

Which is, of course, why Ross circled Renee Good’s car, filming it from every angle, and then stood in front of it while his colleague ordered Good to “get out of the fucking car” and fired the first of his three deadly shots through the windshield. What else could he have done?

Vance, supposedly a very intelligent man, with a law degree from Yale, added this moronic thought to his pronouncement that, without any investigation, the ICE officer was clearly innocent of any wrongdoing.

Vance attacked media outlets on Thursday during a White House press briefing for framing the incident as one where a law enforcement officer killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, and said the ICE agent had previously been “dragged by a car” during an incident last summer. “So you think maybe he’s a little bit sensitive about somebody ramming him with an automobile?” Vance asked the press corps. source

“A little bit sensitive…” so he has a right to fire three bullets into the head of a woman whose partner was sassy with him and disrespectfully told him “go get some lunch, big boy.” Case closed. Nothing to see here! Stop being so fucking woke, close your fucking eyes and go back to sleep, or you’re next, domestic terrorist bitch!

Third Reich stuff

If you want motive for the cold-blooded killing of a woman with a breezy attitude by an ICE agent with a violent attitude, listen to the last couple of seconds of this video. You can hear Jonathan Ross, or one of his fellow ICE agents, say “fucking bitch” after the third shot to her face, as the dead woman’s car lurches forward 100 ft to crash, kind of says it all.

VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE: I can believe that her death is a tragedy, while also recognizing that it’s a tragedy of her own making and a tragedy of the far left, who has marshaled an entire movement, a lunatic fringe, against our law enforcement officers.

VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE: The precedent here is very simple. You have a federal law enforcement official engaging in federal law enforcement action. That’s a federal issue. That guy is protected by absolute immunity. He was doing his job. The idea that Tim Walz and a bunch of radicals in Minneapolis are going to go after and make this guy’s life miserable because he was doing the job that he was asked to do is preposterous. source

From the White House podium Thursday, Vice President JD Vance characterized the victim of the shooting — a 37-year-old mother of three identified as Renee Nicole Good — as a member of “a broader left-wing network to attack, to dox, to assault and to make it impossible for our ICE officers to do their job.”

“This is classic terrorism,” Vance said. “We’re not going to give into terrorism on this.”

Wednesday afternoon, Trump went on the attack.

“The woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense,” he wrote on Truth Social. 

Trump said it was “hard to believe” the ICE officer was alive — despite video showing he remained on his feet throughout the incident and was filmed walking around after the shooting.

source

Back to the soulless JD Vance: 

“The gaslighting is off the charts and I’m having none of it. This guy was doing his job. She tried to stop him from doing his job. When he approached her car, she tried to hit him.

A tragedy? Absolutely. But a tragedy that falls on this woman and all of the radicals who teach people that immigration is the one type of law that rioters are allowed to interfere with.”

Today, in a press conference on the shooting, Vice President J.D. Vance made even more extreme statements, claiming—all evidence to the contrary—that the woman shot in Minneapolis was part of a “left wing network” and that “nobody debates” that she “aimed her car at a law enforcement officer and pressed on the accelerator.” In fact, among those who “debate” Vance’s version of events are the journalists at the New York Times, who today published a slow-motion analysis that demonstrated conclusively that the vehicle was turning away from the officer when he opened fire. source

I salute the Grey Lady for posting this video report of the shooting

Or as Rupert Murdoch’s NY Post spun the shooting of Renee Good, when enraged ICE officer Jonathan Ross shot her three times in the face, as … you be the judge.

Truth Anti-social, Nazis will be Nazis

After a member of unelected Jewish Nazi Stephen Miller’s deportation goon squads shot a peaceful woman, Renee Good, in the face, three times, at close range, just before Trump myrmidon Kashyap Pramod Patel shut local authorities out of the investigation of the cold-blooded murder [1], Kristi Noem, proud killer of puppies, issued this lying statement, on social media, of course.

“ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism. An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers. The alleged perpetrator was hit and is deceased. The ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries. This is the direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement who are facing 1,300% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats.”

Drug prices, as we all can plainly see, as we were promised, have also dropped between 1,300% and 8,000% since the Glorious One took office again (I myself got a check for almost $48,000 from a pharmaceutical giant, or so I’m told), so we have no reason to doubt anything in ICE Barbie’s account. To call her a piece of shit is an insult to excrement. Speaking of stinking, greasy, fly-encrusted turds:

Trump jumped in with his own fact-free post lying that the shooter had been run over: “I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot at her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe that he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP”

Heather continues:

That both DHS and Trump posted false accounts of the shooting even as there are four videos circulating that reveal those accounts to be lies shows they no longer are making any attempt to justify their actions. Instead, they are demanding Americans abandon reality in favor of whatever the administration says. If this works, it would be a demonstration of totalitarian power, the ability to control how people think. Accepting that lie is a loyalty test.

But it is not working.

[1] Dan Rather:

The agent who killed Good was identified by the Minneapolis Star Tribune. He is an Iraq War veteran who has been with ICE since at least 2016. The agent was previously injured in a traffic incident while seizing an undocumented man who was later convicted of dragging the agent with his car. This doesn’t justify what happened. At all.

Stephen Miller, Trump’s immigration guru, who is not a lawyer, maintains ICE agents are untouchable. “You have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties. And anybody who lays a hand on you or tries to stop or obstruct you is committing a felony,” he said on Fox. This is patently false in America — always has been and always should be.

Though Minneapolis’s mayor and Minnesota’s governor vowed to seek justice for Good, Trump & Co. made sure they were unable to. The FBI announced on Thursday morning that it would be handling the investigation alone, boxing out the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA). Historically, the agencies work together.

The BCA said in a statement that the U.S. attorney’s office “had reversed course: the investigation would now be led solely by the FBI, and the BCA would no longer have access to the case materials, scene evidence or investigative interviews necessary to complete a thorough and independent investigation.”

The madness of Donroe

The Donroe Doctrine sounds about right for this idiot and his “views” on “international” “law”.  The far-right, and everybody who loves absolute power, are crazy about a good doctrine or theory to cover their irrational, exploitation-justifying ideas.   The Unitary Executive Theory [1], the Political Question Doctrine, “Originalism”, “Textualism” “Birtherism”.  Makes you feel real smart, and infallibly reasonable, citing to a learned theory or doctrine, even if it’s pulled directly out of some insane zealot’s ass.

The president’s National Emergency shock troops, ICE, have openly murdered a protester in Minneapolis. She was shot seemingly complying with ICE’s order to move her vehicle, she was moving away slowly when she was shot in the face. You can watch the entire hideous event on video.   The ICE agent was shooting into a car moving away from him, in self-defense and to protect fellow officers and the public, as puppy killer Kristi Noem insisted in a very dignified news conference. The doctrine or theory of why this was a righteous shooting is forthcoming. 

Meanwhile, these genius theoreticians have successfully turned a deadly riot, in the minds of roughly a third of the population, into an innocent, praisworthy display of loving patriotism.  No plaque for obstructionist, woke Capitol police overrun by the good guys that day! MAGA Mike Johnson will not allow it, not while he gets the final say.

Day of Love —  kissing booth

Nowhere does Trump’s conviction that he, and he alone, has the right to run the United States show more clearly than in the White House’s rewriting of the history of the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. The insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol were Trump supporters determined to overthrow the free and fair election of Democrat Joe Biden by more than 7 million votes in 2020, replacing him with Trump by virtue of their belief that no Democrat could be fairly electedT.

But the official White House website reversed that reality today, claiming that the insurrectionists who beat and wounded at least 140 police officers, smeared feces on the walls of the Capitol building, and called for the hanging of Vice President Mike Pence were “peaceful patriotic protesters.” The real villains, the White House wrote in bold type, were “the Democrats who staged the real insurrection by certifying a fraud-ridden election, ignoring widespread irregularities, and weaponizing federal agencies to hunt down dissenters.” source

Meanwhile, the entire DOJ is working around the clock, to the exclusion of everything else, on hiding the incriminating sections of the Epstein files.  The Department of Justice does this in open contempt of the 534-1 bipartisan bill Trump himself signed into law in November.

You can argue with Nazis, but it won’t help you. An idiot disposed to violence is always right, no matter what.  Ask Donroe.

Since first hoisted by President Ronald Reagan’s second-term Attorney General Edwin Meese, the unitary executive banner has flown as an originalist imperative, catchily articulated by wordsmith-in-chief Justice Antonin Scalia. Quoting t he so-called vesting clause of Article 2 of the Constitution—“The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States”—Scalia spun that text to “not mean some of the executive power, but all of the executive power.” Scalia’s chestnut bred an asserted (though not demonstrated) corollary: that to effectively deploy this sweeping authority, presidents must hold an indefeasible power to remove senior executive officials, certainly agency heads, at will, for any reason or no reason. source
