Naming Rights (and Naming Wrongs)

 

 

NAMING RIGHTS (AND NAMING WRONGS)

The appalling name change from THE KENNEDY CENTER, as it’s been officially known for the past 58 shining years, to the “TRUMP KENNEDY CENTER” would be laughable if it were not so nauseating.

In Washington, things are going from bad to worse.

When Cruelty Becomes the New Normal

 

 

I can’t believe I’m having to write this. Not in the year 2025. Not in this country. This is not normal. I mean, it shouldn’t be normal. Ever. Especially not in this day and age. But it is.

Cruelty has become normal.

I don’t care about those many millions who are ignorant, not do I care about their racism. I really don’t. Hate can easily be dismissed — though never ignored. Pretending ignorance and racism doesn’t exist is dangerous. History proves that, as America has always overflowed with mass ignorance and overt racism — often masked as patriotism — whether the 1700s, 1800s, 1900s, or sadly even now in the 2000s. We can argue about progress that’s been made and how far we’ve come collectively speaking, or the lack thereof. We can also debate the ways to improve education and diminish racism. We can even discuss the many reasons for ignorance and racism.

What I do know is — it’s impossible to defeat when it comes from THE TOP.

Orange is the New Juice

 

 

ORANGE IS THE NEW JUICE
(HOW TRUMP BECAME THE NEW O.J.)

If and when they’re ever released, the TRUMPStEIN FILES don’t really matter as much anymore.

Whatever slimy details are burrowed therein, the remaining “evidence” isn’t trustworthy. Not anymore. Can anyone really trust the hand-picked sycophantic inner-circle of blind loyalists inside Trump’s DOJ to allow any dirt on their boss to surface? Does anyone really expect to discover a hidden treasure drove of legitimate materials related to sex crimes by Jeffrey Epstein and all those who willfully participated and enabled a decade of abuses?

The Trumpstein Files are now in the process of being scrubbed so clean it’s gonna’ read like Dr. Seuss wrote it. According to the bill that was just signed mandating the release, the Orange House now has 30-days to redact, block, strike out, delay, alter, and/or obliterate ANY evidence that might possibly link Trump to any wrongdoing. THIRTY DAYS!

Fortunately, most Americans will know when they’ve ordered steak of the menu and then get served a heaping pile of bullshit. What in the hell is this? This isn’t what we ordered.

What If the Band Refuses to Play?

 

 

Imagine taking the grand stage, expecting music, and then suddenly without any warning — the band refuses to play.

Stone cold silence.

According to early reports, that’s apparently what happened this morning at the Trump Wolf’s Lair, a gathering of 800 top military leaders summoned by the current crackpot regime which was held in Quantico. I wondered how these generals and assorted military brass who flew to the nation’s capital from all over the world would react to this unprecedented mandatory test-trial of a loyalty oath. I do feel great sympathy for these decorated military leaders, now forced into the excruciating decision over their careers and everything they’ve worked for (and rightly earned) *versus* becoming political mercenaries carrying out orders to go after their fellow Americans in a looming domestic conflict unseen since the Civil War. We’ve reached that point, right now.

The answer to this question may have revealed itself on this glorious Tuesday morning. Seventy years ago, it was the American military who stood up to the bullying of right-wing zealot Joseph McCarthy and effectively ended his witch hunts during the Army hearings. Fifty years ago, congressional Republicans may have saved America from the worst insecurities of Nixon. Today, it might be these generals doing much the same —– throwing up a gauntlet against Trump. Too early to tell–yes, of course. But this was encouraging, and a much-needed beacon of hope that perhaps we’ll make it through this idiocracy after all.

I was EXTREMELY PROUD to read this early report, of the military leaders choosing to remain loyal to the U.S. Constitution and refusing to go along with this MAGA madness. I didn’t write this (and I’d credit the author, if I knew the source *), but it’s an excellent summation of what happened today:
