It Was Only Recently That …
Until quite recently, the United States was an honorable country.
In particular, our presidents weren’t criminal bullies.

The Ultimate Shell Game–It’s Over Here! No It’s Not.
People speculate that Trump’s plan is to bombard the country and the rest of the world with enough outrageous stupidity that some of it sticks, and that it really doesn’t matter which part.
Re: the meme here, Trump is a convicted felon, and Netanyahu could be arrested any day by the International Criminal Court on numerous crimes against humanity. But here at home, Americans are worrying about Canada, Greenland, the Panama Canal, the destruction of American education, and climate change.
Where exactly should we be focusing our attention? It’s over here …. Oh wait.
What We’ve Become — In So Short a Period of Time
I guess the 25-year-old neo-Nazi who’s part of Elon Musk’s presidency wasn’t expecting to have to resign in disgrace like this. A pity.
Sorry for the sarcasm. What’s truly a pity is the moral cesspool that this country has become.
From today’s Wall Street Journal.

RFK Jr. Endangers Our Health and Safety, But Do We Really Care?
We all know that RFK Jr. has no understanding of science. But let’s be honest: ignorance of, or the outright rejection of science is par for the course at this point in American history–especially at the highest levels of government.
In just the first two weeks of his second presidency, Trump has already made great strides in replacing every scientifically competent federal government employ with a MAGA thug whose only qualification is his loyalty. Proficiency has no more relevance now than the color of the ties he wears, or the style of his shoes.

Lunacy Reigns Supreme
If we’ve learned anything in the short period of time since Trump’s second inauguration, it’s that there is no basis to expect rational thinking from the U.S. president. Lunacy is the order of the day, and if we expect anything else, we’ll soon be just as insane as he is.

Looking at the Demise of USAID
Here’s a gentleman who looks at the apparent demise of USAID in religious terms.
I would submit that the act is just as despicable when viewed through a secular lens.

Another Weird Phenomenon in America
The latest fad in American society seems to be denying the existence of things that clearly do exist.
If you hate/fear people of minority sexual orientations, that’s a shame, but it’s your own business. If you don’t believe they exist, or that they should disappear from the face of the Earth through some mysterious force, that’s just pathetic.
It’s like saying that lemons and oranges don’t exist.

Propaganda Is Hitting U.S. Society from All Angles
As suggested at left, Trump’s PR team is not ignoring America’s kids.
Maybe a reader can clue me in as to how what the president is doing is delivering a “stronger, safer and more prosperous America” as he:
• Abolishes the Department of Education
• Fires key people air traffic safety
• Removes dozens of inspectors general and other government watchdogs
• Withdraws our nation from the World Health Organization
• Installs crackpot RFK Jr. into a position where vaccines will be hard to come by
• Pulls the U.S. out of the Paris Accord, blocking efforts to mitigate climate change by the most prosperous nation on Earth
It’s hard to understand how we got to the point where the American people happily accept total crap like this.
The Shuttering of USAID
If you don’t mind being sickened by what’s going on in Washington D.C. at the hands of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, here’s a clip from a recent episode of Stephen Colbert’s show featuring the (former) administrator of the philanthropic agency USAID.
How abruptly was the agency shuttered? “There was a long line of children in Sudan waiting for their TB medicine,” she began. “At the moment the executive order came through, the first three had already received their doses, and the entire rest of the line was told to go home.”

Trump Has Only One Real Criterion for His Cabinet/Staff
From a reader:
Have you heard Trump is a racist???
Donald Trump is a racist, a chauvinist, a homophobe, and a bigot!”
So Kash Patel is about to be the first Indian to ever head the FBI. He’s also the son of immigrant parents.
Marco Rubio is the first Latin Secretary of State, also son of immigrant parents.
Susie Wiles is the first female Chief of Staff.
Scott Besenst, who is an openly gay man, is now Secretary of the Treasury.
Kristi Noem is actually the second woman to be Secretary of Homeland Security.
Richard Grinnell, the envoy who just brought back six American hostages from Venezuela, is openly gay.
Tulsi Gabbard could be the second woman to be head of National Intelligence. Oh, and she’s of Samoan descent.
“Fine, but he… he… he has weird hair and orange skin!”
It’s clear that Trump’s only important criteria in these choices is loyalty to him and his agenda. If you’re willing to do anything for Trump, regardless of how blatantly illegal, you’re an excellent candidate, no matter your race, gender, or ethnicity.
Look through the list of Trump’s 18 co-defendants in Fulton County, Georgia who were indicted under 41 felony counts related to their alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election and keep Trump in power following his loss. You will see many women and a variety of ethnic backgrounds who happily committed treason against their country.
