Phew! We can all take a deep breath as we didn’t wipe out the Persian civilization. Something to be very proud of, don’t you think? Of all the crazy shit that has come out of The Don’s mouth all these years, threatening to destroy an entire civilization was the scariest. Odds were that he wouldn’t actually go through with it. According to Republicans, it was a negotiating toole didn’t really mean it. The problem is he said it, and there is no way to spin yourself out of that one. Some experts are saying that the threat alone represents a war crime. Let’s face it: What’s the difference between what Hitler did with the Jews and what he threatened to do with the Persian people of Iran? Thankfully, he didn’t do it but, as I have been writing for years now he Don’s malignant narcissism puts him in the same category as the Fuhrer. Some argue that the comparison is too extreme. I say: How much more evidence do we need to realize that he has the capacity to act in this way?
Finally, there is talk of removal through the 25th Amendment, which sadly, is a pipe dream because of the spineless sycophants in his cabinet. How awful and morally bankrupt are these people who would allow The Don to carry out these acts of total madness? It does really test your faith in humanity when people with the power to stop it do nothing. The same is to be said of Congress. Where was Mike Johnson during all this? Hunting for Easter eggs with his family? The man who holds Jesus close seems to be okay with The Don murdering millions of people. The only guardrail left the top people in the military who we hope will not participate in an egregious unlawful military . Hopefully, crazy Pete Hegseth won’t fire them all before the next time we are on the brink of mad antics.
And what did we get for all The Don’s crazy threats? We have a ten-point plan where Iran dictates what they want in order to open the Strait of Hormuz. The plan includes the removal of U.S. troops form the surrounding countries, a right to enrich their nuclear material and the right to collect tolls of 2 million dollars for each passing ship. The Don actually said that maybe the U.S. could be a partner with Iran and get some toll money. If I remember there wasn’t any toll on ships passing through the trait until The Don attacked them. Many feel that Iran has been made stronger by The Don’s war of choice against them. (Ever notice that “Ayatolla” has the word “toll” in it?)
Everyone knew that Iran could easily close the Strait of Hormuz, but The Don, in his delusional megalomania, believed Iran would fall just like Venezuela. Reporting suggests that all it took was a visit from another out of control maniac, Bibi Netanyahu, to convince The Don that it would be easy-peasy, and that he would become forever remembered as the man who changed the Middle East. Bibi played him like the fool he is, and here we are.
As I write this, the Strait is closed because Israel continues bombing Lebanon. The U.S and Israel claim that the 10-point ceasefire plan negotiated through Pakistan doesn’t include a ceasefire in bombing Lebanon. The Pakistani government, who brokered the plan, declared that ceasing military action in Lebanon was part of the plan. It’s unclear how this can be unclear: It is either in the 10-point plan, or not. Iran and Pakistan claim it is. (Just want to acknowledge that was the first time I can remember using the word unclear twice in a sentence!) Folks, it ain’t looking good.
On Wednesday, two days after he pulled us back from the brink of disaster, he was already back to his bellicose ways. Threatening even more violence until the country complies with a “REAL AGREEMENT.” “If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the ‘Shootin’ Starts,’ bigger, and better, and stronger than anyone has ever seen before.”
Iran has proved that they aren’t afraid of The Don. The regime supporters placed themselves in harms-way, creating a human chain around infrastructure sites. When you have people ready to die for Islam, and see this as an act of God, then you are in another realm. Despite the fact that some crazy Americans- Pete Hegseth and Lindsey Graham being two- advocate that this is a religious war in which Christianity will triumph, Americans are terrified (rightly so) of their soldiers dying. Who knows, maybe Hegseth will make a plea for our soldiers to embrace Jesus and die for their country.
The Don is flailing, his grandiosity punctured at every t. The Supreme Court has struck down his tariffs and they are most likely going to strike down his ridiculous attempt to end Birthright Citizenship. Democrats are piling up victory after victory in elections. Even though they lost the election to replace MTG, the Democratic candidate only lost by 12 points; The Don won that district by 37 points. His attempts to prosecute his enemies, like Letitia James, James Comey, and many others have been dead-on-arrival. His frustration led him to fire Pam Bondi- who turned the D.O.J into The Don’s vengeance machine- because she wasn’t doing enough. The fact is that if there is no evidence to indict, it doesn’t matter who you have at the helm. He is so desperate, he has turned his ire Cassidy Hutchinson, who was a key witness in the January 6th hearings. He is fraying at the seems looking for people to lash out onA beware, as the more humiliated he feels the more crazy he will become.
Everywhere he turns he is finding opposition. Even his old far right stalwarts like Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and Joe Rogan have turned on him. MTG and Tucker Carlson went as far as saying the cabinet should remove him through the 25th amendment. Who ever thought that day would come?
Even the Pope has admonished him. That matters little to him as his flock see him as the Second Coming and that Trump is the pope. It was recently revealed that in January a representative from the Vatican met with White House officials who told him to get on board with U.S. military tactics. In other words, if you don’t do what we say we will do the same thing to you as we are doing to NATO.
Which brings us to a whacky story. Gregg Phillips, who is in charge of responding to fires and floods for FEMA and has a 300 million dollar budget and 1,000 employees working under him claims the hand of God suddenly and mysteriously moved him to a 24-hour Rome, Ga. A known election denier, his story was debunked by workers at Waffle House as no one saw him. On the conservative podcast “Onward he stated he really wanted us to know that “teleporting is no fun.” My question to Greg is: Why the hell would God want you to be teleported to a Waffle House? Rumor has it, that -mic,he told the podcaster that he was watching Hollywood Squares on TV and suddenly thought of the squares in waffles and before you could say zippity-doo-dah he found himself with a bottle of syrup in his hands Another question Greg: Was the syrup transported with you, or was it already at Waffle House? Given how trapped The Don is maybe he should call up Greg and ask him to tell him the secrets to his teleporting. Maybe he can get the nuclear material out of Iran that way.
