Kadizzle woke up, if only the country would

 The sun isn't up yet and the coffee taste good. Winky is asleep just like most of the country. Trump has trampled our democracy. Recently Kadizzle signed up on Facebook to be a friend of Scott Hennen. Scott Hennen is a right wing liar just like the local KMOG rats. Scott Hennen is in North Dakota and is an ass kisser of the first degree. Hennen worships the original lying rat Rush Limbaugh. 

A few years back good old Scott lied about Kadizzle on his radio show. Apparently someone at the radio station had some integrity and made Scott call Kadizzle and apologize for the lie. Scott had a hard time admitting he lied and blamed it on someone else. These radio rats are all over the country. KMOG is a local classic. All of these right wing radio shows use the same propaganda style. Scott would hang up on Kadizzle when Kadizzle lived in North Dakota. The North Dakota radio station KFYR was an exact copy of KMOG. KMOG will not let Kadizzle confront the lying. Both radio stations do the same thing. They hang up the phone then lie about you so you cannot defend yourself. 

Erin writes about the precious Sylvie having a good time in New York

Yesterday this girl called me from her Times Square hotel bathroom in tears of joy, saying she had just lived one of the best days of her life. She is loving getting to be a part of a professional Broadway production, interacting and learning from the original cast of Anastasia, who did a talkback for the kids at the end of their rehearsal.

The stars of the show told these young actors not to give up on their big dreams and shared their own inspiring stories of resilience and perseverance and making it on Broadway against all odds. Sylvie was moved to tears talking to the director, telling her how much this experience has meant to her.

Then last night, she got to see Hadestown just a few rows back from the stage on Allison Russell’s and Lillias White’s final performances, playing Persephone and Hermes respectively. She said the she could see every expression on the actors’ faces and that they were crying throughout the performance, as was Sylvie. She said it was one of the most beautiful, moving shows she has ever seen, especially as she gets ready to play Persephone herself.

There is nothing better in the world than seeing your child do something they love and pursuing what makes them happy. She told me she was so grateful that we support her in following her heart and passion for theatre. As parents you don’t always know that you are doing the right thing, but this sure made me feel like we have helped her find her path to the thing that lights her up.

Cannot wait to see her in the production of Anastasia tonight at the Lincoln Center - a bucket list item for all of us.

Flood the zone

Lately, Kadizzle can’t stop thinking about pheasant hunting. Anyone who’s done it knows the feeling—a sudden explosion of wings as a flock takes flight right in front of you. The chaos is overwhelming. You have to pick just one bird and take your shot, but the sheer number makes it hard to focus.

That’s exactly what’s happening in politics right now. President Musk and his bootlicker Trump have flooded the field with so much corruption and deceit that it’s impossible to keep track. This chaos isn’t accidental—it’s a strategy. Distraction is Trump’s greatest tool, and the Hoopleheads fall for it every time, moving as predictably as a school of fish or a flock of sheep.

Back to hunting—we called it "flock shooting." When the confusion is too great, you just fire into the mass and hope you hit something. That’s where the Democrats find themselves now. Billionaires are swarming, rigging the system in their favor. But who do you aim at first?

Then there’s the train. Trump’s followers stand shivering at the station, waiting for promises that will never arrive. “The train is coming,” he tells them. “Just be patient.” Meanwhile, he’s picking their pockets. By the time they realize the truth, he’ll be long gone—with everything they had.

Ezra Klien New York Times

 The Kadizzle wife made him watch a video in the New York Times. If you want a good description of how we lost the country watch it. A verse to a song is " It's all over now baby blue".  Overwhelmed by stupidity the Hoopleheads now are running wild. Met a dinger woman in the grocery store she said " It will get better".  This is an acknowledgement that Trump is failing by a Hooplehead. They will support him even though they know he is marching us down the road to dictatorship. 

Another article describes how the courts can have power. The courts are our last hope, but that is hopeless. Trump will trample the courts, and the courts have no army. As Rome burns we fiddle. There will be protest on Monday all across the country. Good people will stay home and fart while Trump destroys one more part of our government. 

We got em right here, flag wavers. Good people who think everything is OK. Bullshit, the felon and the billionaire are wrecking havoc. Musk's own little four year old who told Trump " You need to shut up" knows the game. The kid knows his dad is president not the golf dog. 

How will all this unwind. Putin is dancing with joy. Trump has handed Ukraine to Putin and is destroying the European alliance. Meanwhile Vance is cheering German Nazis. Can it get any more insane?

The country is shattered, but you don't care

 The coffee is fine, the heat feels good, looks like the sun will shine today. So who cares if people are starving and the mafia has taken over the government. What me worry. Might ride my bike today, sit in the sun and watch the American Nazi party take over. Until they knock on my door and put me in jail again, why should I care. Yes the Republican already had Kadizzle jailed overnight for calling in to KMOG radio and questioning a MAGA liar. Very unpleasant being stripped searched, having my bunghole checked for contraband, and spending that night in jail. Just a warning from the Trump mafia, but who cares? 

Nothing matters until I don't get coffee and have a warm place to shit. Then its game on, but it is too late. 

This morning we will have Donuts with Democrats. Rueben Galego our Congressional rep is featured in the New York Times. Read it and learn from his wisdom. Democrats are whimps, that is why we lose. Simple minded people want strong vocal rats like Trump. Democrats need to get some balls and be more aggressive if we are going to take back the country. The ship is sinking very quickly. 

Democracy in a meat grinder

Trump is grinding up every principle our country stands for. Trump is the ultimate con man. It is incomprehensible how Americans can sit on their hands while the Trump gang loots the country. All that is bad enough but on a worldwide basis it is even worse. People ARE starving because of Trump. Putin is in ecstacy knowing Trump is his lickspittle. If Satan had a son it would be Donald Trump. Reality is not even considered by Trump. The planet is melting and Trump is asking for more fuel. Meanwhile the comfortable are comfortable and don't give a damn. As the ship sinks you are fine until it reaches your floor. So have fun, watch some sports, and keep pretending it is happening to other people. 

Sex and Republicans

The GOP’s Obsession with Transgender People: A Distraction from Real Problems

The world is facing serious, existential challenges. Donald Trump continues his assault on democracy, the climate crisis threatens life as we know it, geopolitical tensions are escalating—China may soon invade Taiwan—and millions of people around the world are struggling just to survive.

And yet, what do Republicans fixate on? Transgender people.

At a recent town council meeting in Payson, the local Hoopleheads found a way to turn every issue into a rant about transgender people. The biggest concern? The fairness of sports if a transgender athlete is involved. Really? With everything going on in the world, this is the hill they want to die on?

Talk to any right-wing Trump supporter, and before long, the conversation will turn to the supposed “threat” of transgender rights. It’s almost a reflex at this point.

The Republican obsession with sex and gender has always been baffling. Why are their minds constantly focused on what people do in their personal lives? Why, in the face of global crises, do they zero in on who uses which bathroom or who plays on which sports team?

The answer is simple: It’s a distraction. By inflaming culture wars, they avoid addressing the real problems facing Americans—problems they have no real solutions for. The economy, healthcare, infrastructure, climate change—these require serious policy discussions. But scapegoating a tiny fraction of the population? That’s easy. It riles up their base, keeps the donations flowing, and distracts from the fact that they have nothing of substance to offer. 

Whiners and Bitchers

 Town Hall had a packed audience yesterday. The Hoopleheads were plentiful. The bitching and whining went on for a long time. It was the usual salad of insane accusations. The Hooples have no sense of decorum and as usual acted like teenagers. 

It was a series of accusations, insults, and crazy demands. 

The Hooples love to hear one of their mentally ill get up and talk crazy talk. The stars were a couple of women who shouted unintelligible nonsense at the commission. One dinger insisted the temporary town manager be fired. No reason was given. 

If you want to see the Trump cult mental illness first hand a town council meeting is a good bet. Another choice is a Tea Party meeting. Trump was elected by the people off their medication. 

President Musk was in the Oval Office with his little boy. The young kid looked about two or three. Before X (that is the kid's name) picked his nose he told Trump " You need to shut your mouth".  President Elon among other things admitted he lied. Of course lying is acceptable to the cult members, it is just one tool in the box. 

Trump was seated at the desk and Musk was standing there spewing dictator stuff. It is alleged the little boy, X said to Trump " What are you doing sitting in my daddy's chair?".  

The complete meltdown of our country is here. You can see it locally or watch President Musk in action. 

The Bomb hit pretty close

 The madman who is now our dictator has no clue of the havoc he is wrecking on the world. Someone close to us who does not work for the government lost his job because of Trump's insanity. That is bad, but worse yet are the people actually starving because madman cut off aid. Two psychopaths running our country. Adolf Trump and President Musk are clueless about the secondary damage they do with their dictatorship. The ripples will soon be felt through the economy. When it gets personal you will see it differently.
