Pray For Israel...

Please- Pray That Israel Regains Their Conscience!

They have bombed Palestinian civilians in their apartments, schools and hospitals. They have shot them in the streets as they chase them from so called safe zone to 'safe zone.' They shoot them with drones, with tanks and in predesignated target areas where they tempt them with morsels of food. They've grown so utterly bored with shooting so many Palestinian men, women and children... that they now make a game of it! 

And as if shooting and blowing them up is not enough, they are now literally starving them! Pictures are now disseminating, documenting skeletal infants reminiscent of those from Biafra and Bangladesh at the peak of their famines. There is a word for this, for this carefully planned, duly implemented and progressively expanding slaughter on every front imaginable; a word that should not be used lightly or prematurely, but when made blatantly clear and obvious- Shouted and condemned the world over! Israel, once the victim, and now perpetrator of... GENOCIDE!

Can't Possibly... Make... This... Up!

So let me get this straight- Bill Barr's father hired Jeffrey Epstein (who never graduated college) to teach math... in college. And said employer of the soon to be, convicted child predator had already written a science fiction novel concerning- an inter-galactic child sex trafficking ring!

The Killing Game

After lazily allowing myself to be immersed in Trump/Epstein over the weekend, I willed myself to refocus Monday AM only to hear how doctors in Gaza now see injuries to very specific body parts on any given day. Legs shots on one, abdomen on another- then head... groin, etc.

After the Israeli military set up 'food distribution areas' in highly convenient Kill Zones, seems they've have grown increasingly bored with their home-made, shooting fish in a barrel scenario, taking pot shots at desperately starving Palestinians (many of them children) willing to risk their lives for a morsel of food. Apparently, in order to remain alert, and amused, said soldiers have made a further game of it- picking specific body parts on a daily basis to pique interest and chase away the everyday doldrums of military drudgery...

Cabal Of Depravity

This fifteen minute dive is by no means an all encompassing synopsis, but it details the depths of depravity that were the Trump/Epstein symbiosis- presented by the most noteworthy journalist (and Presbyterian minister) Chris Hedges. 

NYC Mayor Elect

The choices for NYC Mayor are clear: A) a disgraced former governor, B) a disgraced mayor under criminal investigation saved by a Felon, C) a guy who kidnapped himself for publicity, D) a man who stands for and believes in the working class!

The Great Unraveling

I had been waiting for this moment for years- over and over and over again... This is finally what sees his demise, this is finally what exposes him for what he truly is, this is finally what drives the stake right into the very heart of his myriad of lies and criminalities!!! And over, and over, and over again- he scoffed, bullied and smirked his way out... So I am NOT gonna get my hopes up, NOT gonna jump up and down with joy, NOT gonna rejoice in righteous indignation... Nope- Not gonna go there!

This time, it-is-different. This time his own team is turning. This time, his cult is, indeed, cracking. But he will survive. He will survive his lame duck presidency, he will appoint some clown prince 'special prosecutor' to absolve him of anything and everything, while blaming all others. But it is the first time he's actually had to squirm to the point where he visibly sweats and appears genuinely vulnerable. A little late in my book, but... such is the reality of this decade's long journey through the Magaverse: where facts and reality, logic and reason, science and common sense held no gravity, rhyme or reason. And at the very least- what was the very real possibility of a thoroughly illegal and Unconstitutional Trumpian Third Term will remain unrealized, the very absurdity of a criminal pipe dream that should have never been uttered in any universe, real or imagined...

Sanity, Decency, Common Sense...

What a breath of fresh air to hear someone speak: so very rationally and eloquently- with compassion and reason (about someone who exhibits none of those traits)... Remarkable!

Fun/Not Fun...

Conspiracies are fun because you can always make of them whatever you want, use them however you want, to whatever end you want. Take a couple of facts, mix generously with the rumors and innuendo that fits your political and personal needs and... Voila- instant 'proof' that can never be disproven, because neither can it ever be verified!

Unless, unless... someone actually does, in fact, come up with the mythological, irreproachable, put up or shut up goods- the golden, once in a lifetime opportunity to lay it all out on the line for all to see! How often does that happen? Miracle of Miracles, BEHOLD- Upon yonder desk! The Epstein Files- The Golden Fleece, The Holy Grail, and The Big Kahuna all wrapped up into one neat pile on Blondie's Desk!!! 

So why is it that the people Most certain, Most demanding, Most SCREAMING, now say... Nah! It's all good- No worries... WE don't even wanna talk it no more- not that we ever did anyways.........

Yeah, I'm sure there's plenty a Democratic pervert in those files... Mucho, starting with Clinton. Plenty of Republicans and non partisan types as well. But Blondie didn't act on her own, she takes her marching orders from the guy upstairs, the guy who was Epstein's Very Best Bud for over ten years, the guy who is documented on the flight logs of the Lolita Express no fewer than seven (7) times, the guy who journalist Michael Wolff has publicly stated is in pictures (that Epstein showed him) with three topless, underaged girls and "a stain" on his pants- but that's just a vicious lie!!! Hhmmm... Then why hasn't Mr. Trump, who just loves to sue at the drop of a hat, ever sued him- even though he's repeated the assertion in just about every venue possible!

And now, Congressional Republicans have officially voted NOT to pursue it further. Meanwhile, Herr Trump desperately searches for the next talking point to divert the attention of those in the Magaverse that are finally starting to question, maybe even starting to doubt... And the girls, now women, who were used, abused and discarded are once again made to feel as Ghislaine Maxwell once described them, "they're like used tissues." 

The Horror! The Horror...

So... after months, years, eons of MAGA foaming at the mouth that The Epstein Files are real, the Epstein files are suppressed- MAGA cohorts finally reached the pinnacle of their dreams and gained the power and access to blow it all outta the water and expose anyone and everyone on said list!!! The List they have salivated for, The List that reveals every Democratic Evil Doer is finally in their happy little hands! And now at their very peak of joy and triumph, they are finally able to reveal that- The Almighty List does-not-exist! Wha...?

First, there never was one Magic List, Democrats are not listed in alphabetical order, and Bondi who has taken the oath of fealty to Trump (along with everyone else in his clown show admin) is not the bad guy (she is- but for many other reasons), just the fall gal. Yes, I'm sure there's many a Dem on those files, no doubt- just as I'm sure that the guy on the very top, the guy who was The Best Bud of good ol' Jeffrey E. for 15 some years, who is listed on the documented flight logs of The Lolita Express no less than 7 times, is none other than... Donnie J! 

This is probably the most I've ever seen Donnie sweat. Some of his base is actually turning, even Alex Jones was giving him some heavy side eye! But fear not, he'll get over yet again, always does... cause his hardcore base is number one at closing the door and closing ranks lest the slightest ray of light or reason sneak on in (credit where credit due). The very next day Jones had changed his tune, saying it was the Dems who'd stolen the files (right off Bondi's desk- I guess)! Certain sycophants will get yelled to hell at, one or two will be fired, and in a few months more or less, things will be back to the usual chaos of Trump World. All just another fake creation of The Deep State, which they now own- but irony holds no gravity in the Magaverse, where: windmills cause cancer, brave American patriots liberate airports in the Revolutionary War, and "the kidney has a very special place in the heart."

As We Cut...

...Medicaid, we also eliminate life saving foreign aid that could forfeit as many as 14 MILLION lives worldwide (while costing less than 1% of our total budget) and- increase our military budget by... $157 B-B-BILLION!!!

Corruption Guaranteed!

Pam Bondi, US AG, the top law enforcement officer in the nation, has now proclaimed that there is not going to be any release of any Epstein list- which doesn't exist anyway! So why are so very many people acting so very surprised, astonished and confused to hear this?!?

Perhaps, because during an interview on FOX News on 2/21/2025 she first proclaimed that Epstein's client list was "sitting on my desk right now to review." Perhaps, because she also went on to proclaim that there were "over one thousand confirmed victims." She also went on to state that law officials were currently examining “a truckload” of previously withheld evidence, including a plethora of videos, all the while repeatedly complaining about the lack of transparency from the previous administration! All that certainly sounds like enough "that will make you sick," especially since those victims were... children! So what could lead such a thoroughly dedicated advocate of justice to what anyone would consider as abrupt as an abrupt about-face can possibly get?!?

But then, this is as corrupt as a corrupt AG can possibly get (in cahoots with the most corrupt FBI director of all time, Kash Patel), the forever faithful lapdog to her twice impeached, convicted sex molester and Felon in Chief... himself, a decade's long best friend of the multiple child rapist in question who flew on Epstein's "Lolita Express" no fewer than seven times!

Take Your Pick!

This man is: A) completely delusional, B) an outright liar, or c) telling the absolute truth as it happened. Does he look and/or sound delusional? If he's an outright liar, what is the motivation? Attention? Most of the attention these people get comes in the form of: personal ridicule, social chastisement and loss of revenue- he has no book or movie to sell, no TV or concert hall appearances to hype. So, you decide in this detail rich 2 1/2 hour retelling of a most 'unusual' experience! What's that, his rank fails to impress? How about this guy- will the captain of a nuclear missile facility be sufficient to warrant your attention and credulity?

Happy No Kings Holiday Weekend!

The one thing, the only thing that a Trump presidency is good for, are the added photo ops made possible by the increase in protests and public participation. This weekend, I'll personally be recalling and recounting the inspiring tales of derring-do involving our brave American patriots who liberated our airports during the Revolutionary War!

Weep, Oh, Israel!

It's proven that some children who are molested go on to become molesters themselves, counterintuitive perhaps, but true (frighteningly so) nevertheless. Lately, I've been thinking how that same example could be applied on an even larger scale- could an abused people/country go on to become mass abusers themselves? That certainly might very well help explain how one 'genocided' population could go on to commit similar atrocities against another... 

Once again, the world stands by merely watching as one group of people are bombed and shot relentlessly out of house and home, bombed and shot relentlessly into evacuation and refugee encampments, bombed and shot relentlessly straight into starvation...

When does self defense devolve into endless, vicious retribution? In this case, Israel crossed that line quite some time ago; the victim has become victimizer, defying their own code of ethics, and breaking their own set of morals and conduct that they themselves helped define for and propagate to the entire world!

How long can one continue to persecute and target a population you made homeless and starving- and still claim to be the victim? Israel, you could once, at least, argue the moral high ground- any claim to the latter has been long extinguished by the trail of thousands of dead and broken children's bodies left in your pernicious wake of unrelenting vengeance...
