When you are walking through a minefield always look where you are stepping.
I just heard how the Minnesota legislature ended its term with Republicans screaming bloody murder about how they were forced to vote on a massive bill that they hadn’t seen. Its part and parcel of the politics their party grownups have shrunken away from so that such misfortunes appear. In the law that’s called pounding the table. First you pound the facts. If the facts are not on your side then you pound the law. If the facts and the law are not on your side then you pound the table.
I’ll lay out the Republican table with this reminder of who we elected to be our 45th president and who is aching to be our 47th president. Tread carefully America!
The skirt chaser in the first picture sits smugly next to the man who hung himself in the New York’s Rikers Island because his pimping of adolescent girls to the rich and famous on his brothel islands to the likes of Trump, Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew was about to be opened up for the world to see. I’m needed more than ever since all the Republican adults have become blinded by hiding in Trump’s fesses……That’s a french word. Pardon my French!
To reinforce how deep the infection is in the Republican psyche I’ll show you the kind of “probity” being shown by the head shaking U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito:
I recently used the word “probity” but my spell check flagged it as not being a recognizable word. Maybe it isn’t anymore. Here’s the Dictionary definition of the word: “The quality of having strong moral principles; honesty and decency.”
If Justice Alito. If he ever had any probity he lost it long before blaming his wife for putting the US Flag up upside-down to piss off their anti-Trump neighbors. Right neighborly of the Supreme Court. Who does Samuel think he is Clarence Thomas?
I just rediscovered the category in this blog called “Democracy under threat.” That where I put this post. That what the 2024 Election is all about. That’s what America since the rise of Donald Trump has been all about. I am just the tiniest dosage of antivenom but I’m a start.
