Are there any people other than the MAGA faithful who still believe a word that comes from Trump or his republican sycophants mouths is EVER true? As usual, there are so many things I could focus on that it renders my ADHD mind spinning like a top – exactly what the objective of the project 2025 puppet masters are intending. They’re about to inflict “we the people” with another “beautiful” tax cut which will funnel UP (not down – if you haven’t figured that out yet) approximately $5 TRILLION to (f)Elon Musk and the rest of the republican BILLIONAIRE class along with the corporate turncoats who would rather live in a fascist state as long as they are getting even RICHER.

The CORRUPTION in Washington DC has reached monumental levels – beyond even the imagination of those who’ve complained about ethics for decades – since the days of Ronald Reagan (at least). Trump, for example, appears to me to be focused on accruing as MUCH money as he can during his second assault on our constitution. Along with that, I believe the American economy is (and has been) one of his targets in his retribution campaign. I believe he’s hated the “elite” of Wall Street for most of his career because he was NEVER accepted in Manhattan – despite his showy attempts to get attention. I believe his tariff recession will be part of the pay back.

And, of course, he’s setting himself and his two sons up to be among the greatest benefactors of the impending recession. Remember, when the market tanks, those with lots of cash will swoop in and pick up the pieces – people like Musk and the other BILLIONAIRES who’ve been sucking up to Trump since the day he “won” re-election. The best examples I can give would focus on Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg. Both of these “progressives” were among the first to throw down a MILLION bucks for Trump’s inauguration celebration (where Musk showed his fascist bona fides with a couple Sieg Hiels). I believe both Bezos and Zuckerberg were/are looking for the repeal of regulations making their quest for even MORE billions much easier.

And, keep in mind, they don’t think in terms of “millions.” Giving Trump a cool MILLION is like a rounding error to each of these turncoats. Bezos has since stuck his (now) Trump loving nose into the business of his famous Newspaper the Washington Post – with many of the best reporters and opinion writers on to new horizons. Zuckerberg showed his true colors as he changed the moderation policy of Facebook to “be like Elon.” Meaning full of right wing Nazi like dribble – affecting the minds of untold numbers of unsuspecting Americans. And, the list goes on, the other day i heard a report on Peter Thiel – he of the “I helped JD Vance” segment of our right wing BILLIONAIRE population, where Thiel’s Palantir corporation has gained around $1 BILLION in government contracts since Trump took (lied about) the oath of office on January 20th, 2025 – to gather DATA on “we the people.” Surprise Surprise.

I’ve pointed this out several times here before – both Peter Thiel and (f)Elon Musk are immigrants – in Musk’s case a bit “sketchy” (Just ask Steve Bannon) – Thiel from Germany and Musk from Apartheid South Africa – and they’ve got their “fingers” in a lot of what’s going on in America which goes over the heads of “we the people” (present company included). To say I don’t trust either of these moneyed dudes is putting it mildly. I believe it was Thiel I read about who was purchasing isolated parts of New Zealand for his “escape” once the shit hits the fan. (As far as I can tell, that day is here)

Now, I began this rant before the Trump/Musk administration hit the “rocks” with Musk going off on Trump’s “big beautiful bill” as an abomination. (Of course, “beauty is in the eye of the beholder) I would caution all the “libs” out there to avoid getting excited about this dustup because Musk’s issue with the bill was there wasn’t ENOUGH “cutting” – suddenly, he seems worried about the national debt. Of course, had he been paying attention to recent American History, he shouldn’t have been a bit surprised. Aside from all the complaints about deficits coming from republicans when a democrat is in the “Oval Office” – they kick in a “new” tax cut for the “rich” as soon as they gain control once again. This goes all the way back to Nixon me working from my memory. Of course, it was Reagan who first inflicted “we the people” with the “trickle down” LIE. You’d think we would have figured this out by now – but, whatever!

So, here we are. Trump is about four or five months into his second regime and he’s got, this time, some really “nasty” dudes filling out his “executive orders” for him – I put that in quotes because I’ve been pointing out since his first day in Trump 2.0 that he only learns what’s on these “orders” when they are presented to him at the signing ceremony – where the spokesperson for, I’m saying this by inference, project 2025 actually explains to him what he’s about to sign. I’ve called them the “puppet masters” since before January 30th, 2025 – and, if you’ve been paying attention it should have been obvious. True to form I’m now noticing some of the “crack” members of the so-called “Mainstream Media” beginning to figure out Trump has no idea what he’s signing.

Well, all of this “governing” has left us in a precarious place, hasn’t it? The world is watching and LAUGHING at America – while, at the same time, wondering “what the hell is going on over there/” How could the American people be so STUPID as to put a 34 times FELON who actually attempted a coup d’etat four years earlier back in “charge?” I could list so many reasons why this SHOULDN’T have happened, but the reality is that people like Musk, Thiel, Bezos, Zuckerberg and many other OLIGARCHS understand how easy it is to manipulate the “thinking” of the American public – a public which, by many reports I’ve read, has over 50% with an educational equivalent of 6th grade or lower. (That actually explains it, doesn’t it)

And, the so-called Mainstream Media certainly don’t help the situation with the inability to actually report “news” based on facts – NOT on seeking ratings, or believing in “both sidesing” issues or, out and out attempting to push a pre-ordained narrative. In 2024, as soon as the democrats “turned” on Joe Biden (who, admittedly was too old – although, 19 MILLION primary voters supported him KNOWING he was too old) I KNEW Trump was likely to be the next president, once again. The republicans had succeeded in changing to topic from Trump and his “roadmap to fascism” with project 2025 (which we are now seeing being carried out – daily) to Joe Biden as too old. Of course, Trump is ALSO too old – but, apparently, that’s a different “story.”

Here’s the major difference between Trump and Biden. Trump has no idea what’s in the constitution (nor, does he care), he has no idea how to govern (nor, does he care), and he’s violating basic ethical tenets in order to make TONS of money (as far as the ethical tenets – he obviously doesn’t care). When Trump accuses others of “hating this country,” that’s the purest form of projection – he clearly hates this country. And, talk about projection? Just think for a quiet moment about Trump referring to the “Biden crime family.” Hunter Biden’s “crimes?” “Crimes” which would NEVER have been pursued had he not been Biden’s son – but NEVER connected to President Biden despite four years of attempts. But, the constant barrage of LIES influenced many of those Americans who actually believed Trump would end the wars in Ukraine and GAZA on “day one,” bring down the prices of groceries on “day one,” and “Make America Great Again” to vote for him (with about $300 MILLION in “help” from his now estranged Musk).

It should be obvious this all really bugs me – hence another rant in cyberspace. But, here’s what bugs me more than knowing many of the people I know who I consider good hard working Americans are, when it comes to politics, STUPID – and, in MOST instances they claim their “brilliance” comes from their dedication to Fox “news” – and, it’s – ONCE AGAIN – aimed at the “Main Stream Media.” Now, I don’t pretend to watch a lot of television “news” – but, when I do it’s almost always MSNBC. I do read a lot of “stuff” from various sources although I’ve pretty much eliminated the NY Times and the WA Post from those sources. Almost universally I’m seeing these outlets referring to what they’re seeing from Trump as “authoritarianism.” I’ve written about this before, and OBVIOUSLY, pretty much no one who counts in the “news” is paying attention.

However, I’m going to keep saying this until either I’m blue in the face or, hopefully better, some of these national news outlets start paying attention. The word they SHOULD be using is FASCISM! Authoritarianism is simply a euphemism for what apparently is a word which is so unpopular based on WW II and the attempted genocide by Hitler’s Nazi’s that we have to find words which don’t sound so “harsh.” Be that as it may, what Trump is attempting (and, on the verge of succeeding thanks in part to that “Main Stream Media”) is the turning of America into a fascist state. Don’t believe me? Read project 2025 and you’ll see what is happening in America right now is exactly what they had planned as their “manifesto for the next ‘conservative’ administration.”

I read well into project 2025 – as far as I needed to realize what the authors were advocating – and, that is defeating our democratic republic from “within” – something Hitler failed to do from the outside – back when my father was in the Army. I put links on this site so anyone who happened by could get it easily. In fact, the last time I put a link up, the people at Project 2025 required my email address – and, silly me, I gave it to them. Since then I’ve been battered by and endless barrage of right wing emails from Trump and many others – and, I can’t seem to get rid of them. So, if you’re interested in actually understanding what is happening to our nation it’s easy to find – it’s not so easy to read if you love America’s 250 year old democratic republic. Stay tuned!!!

Final Thought: next weekend (from when I’m writing this) will be the next big protest planned for June 14th – the day Trump is giving himself a birthday present – that would please Vladimir Putin or Kim Jong un – tearing up Pennsylvania Avenue in D.C. with a military parade aimed at cementing our place among fascist states around the globe. Trump is working to turn Benedict Arnold’s memory into one of a true patriot. Yikes!!!

I have to add: For anyone who is confused about what Trump is doing in Los Angeles – first with calling out the National Guard over the objections of California’s governor – who SHOULD be the one to do so if he sees fit – and, secondly NOW by including 700 Marines to help INSTIGATE a violent reaction from protesters – this is part of the project 2025 plan to make sure all the democrats out there who are planning on taking back control of Congress in the 2026 Mid-Terms Trump (and his puppet masters) have another plan. They are going to continue stirring up opposition to their lawless actions to the point where Trump will claim some kind of national emergency and there will NOT be Mid-Term elections in 2026. I’m sure that sounds bizarre to MOST who might read this, but that’s exactly what I believe the plan to be. That’s exactly why I keep encouraging our Main Stream Media to use the correct description when analyzing Trump 2.0. IT’S FASCISM!!! (Read Project 2025)
