Sound the alarm: Trump is escalating warnings that all dissent against him will be criminalised in his second presidency

'Totally illegal': Trump escalates rhetoric on outlawing political dissent and criticism. {NBC News 13 October}

I’ve long said that the top priority of Donald Trump and his millions of cult-like followers is to dominate the culture and force their fellow citizens to conform to their will. Criticising him is already dangerous to one’s health in certain areas of this country, or in certain circles, and shall soon outright become illegal everywhere. Pay attention to the way his devout supporters speak: they genuinely want all Americans on their side and react with venomous rage to even the slightest criticism. They see any attack on him as a personal attack on themselves, and like him, they are highly sensitive and willfully ignorant. The United States now revolves around one man, Donald J. Trump, and those of us who refuse to bend the knee to him are in serious trouble. Better pay attention, because he is telling us what he is going to do: millions will be repressed, and millions more are perfectly fine with that. Dark days lie ahead.

ALL AMERICANS NEED TO READ THIS: NEW REVELATIONS FROM BOB WOODWARD UNEQUIVOCALLY SHOW TRUMP IS PUTIN’S PUPPET: HE ARRANGED TO HAVE COVID TESTS SENT TO RUSSIA FOR PUTIN’S PERSONAL USE, AND HAS CONTACTED THE RUSSIAN TYRANT AFTER LEAVING OFFICE

Trump secretly sent COVID tests to Putin during 2020 shortage, new book says. {WP 8 October}

The orange motherf**ker stole from the American people at the height of a deadly pandemic to keep a foreign dictator—an adversary of the United States—healthy. Yet most Americans will simply shrug or cry ‘fake news’ when they should be demanding that Trump be sent to the gallows. It is no wonder #Murica is in such a sorry state. But I digress, for the story gets even more interesting.

Bob Woodward reveals that President Biden regrets choosing Merrick Garland as Attorney General (though why he hasn’t simply fired Garland remains a mystery). Kamala Harris is portrayed as having limited influence on the administration’s foreign policy, although she did reach out to both French President Macron and President Zelensky in the lead-up to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Another interesting anecdote: George W. Bush expressed sympathy for President Biden’s ordeal in withdrawing US troops from Afghanistan, telling him, ‘I can understand what you’re going through. I got [expletive] by my intel people, too.’ As for Barrack Obama, Mr Biden is quoted as saying, ‘Barack never took Putin seriously’—which is true. Remember how Obama mocked Mitt Romney for warning about Putin during the 2012 election? Not so funny now, is it, Barry? Bob Woodward is one of the last true journalists, and I am grateful he remains at the top of his game, even at this late stage in his life.

Trump takes 8.6% lead in Polymarket betting odds - Not an absolute indicator, but there are more signs out there Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are fading fast. I keep trying to tell everyone, this nation is hellbent on national suicide. If Trump was ever going to be rejected by the not-so silent majority in #Murica, it would have happened long before now. Trump is going to win in a relative landslide. We are in deep s**t.

Don’t shoot the messenger: Kamala's lead over Trump in the Reuters/Ipsos poll narrows to three points, with a plurality believing Trump is stronger on economy and immigration - When pointing out facts is met with hostility, name-calling, and baseless accusations of being a ‘traitor’, it becomes clear that far too many of Kamala’s supporters are now simply the flip side of the same coin as the Trumpers. A political cult. It also further confirms why I have never, and will never, find a home in the Democratic Party. American politics are broken beyond repair, because the American people are, by and large, broken individuals. I despise myself for not having fully foreseen all of this twenty-five or thirty years ago, as I would have done everything differently and prepared myself to leave this s**thole. (I did have some vague inkling, but I was still young and quite damaged from a not-so-happy childhood, and made a million bad decisions in spite of what my gut would tell me, but no matter). No chance of being able to settle anywhere else now; I am forced to wallow in the blood and mud with all the other pigs (to paraphrase a great song from better times).

FWIW: in contrast to 2016 and 2020, leftist filmmaker Michael Moore predicts that Trump is ‘toast’ in 2024 - To be fair, this is the man who predicted Trump’s win in 2016 when everyone thought he was crazy. However, four years ago, he predicted another Trump win and was wrong. I strongly suspect he is wrong again and underestimates just how hateful and self-destructive the people of this dying nation are. (If anyone disagrees, prove me wrong on 5th November!)

The American people (far too many of them, at least) continue to blatantly and deliberately emulate Nazi Germany, with antisemitic incidents soaring to a record high.

‘Antisemitic incidents in the US surge to a record high’ {BBC 6 October}

Whether it was before (a debate for another day, obviously we weren’t always saints), America in 2024 is undeniably becoming a blatantly and openly evil, repressive, and antisemitic nation. Beyond being a bloody outrage and a national disgrace, it personally repulses me to the point of feeling physically ill. It is also terrifying beyond the comprehension of those of us who grew up in times of greater peace, prosperity, and personal liberty (pre-9/11). For years, I have endured intense prophecies of a neo-Nazi state, and it is all coming together just as I envisioned. People continue to so gravely disappoint me. Remember, the numbers cited by the ADL are just what has been reported. Think of how many more incidents that have not been reported, likely multifold. #Murica is rapidly becoming the new Nazi Germany, to be made official on November 5.

This revelation will make not one iota of difference to his legion of depraved sycophants, nor to most of the American people at large. Mark my words: 5 November will be national suicide, and the streets will flow with blood. A significant portion of the population is willing to risk their lives and take those of others to keep a Black woman out of the White House and their orange hero out of prison. It is sheer insanity on a level never before seen in American history, and it is all coming to a head. Civil war is imminent – God’s judgment on an evil and mentally ill nation.

Hurricane Helene exacts a deadly toll upon the US Southeast, particularly in southern Appalachia

Asheville has been isolated after Helene wrecked roads and knocked out power and cell service. {AP 28 September}

Am quite saddened. It has been nearly thirty years since I last visited Asheville and Western North Carolina. My parents have returned at least once, mayhap two or three times, in the years since. Asheville remains one of the most scenic and pleasant places I have ever experienced. East Tennessee, where I once had strong ties for many years, was largely spared the worst of the calamity, though poor Newport was not so fortunate.

Global warming—or 'climate change', if one prefers—is both terrifying and real, and largely man-made. For the longest time, before I parted ways with the 'conservatives' (now #Cult45) in 2015 and 2016, I was as adamant as any of them that global warming was a 'hoax' and that humanity was blameless for acts of nature. Yet now, I think, 'Well, if mankind ruins everything else, why would we not also be culpable for this?' In the eternal battle between humanity and nature, nature always prevails. Human beings do not respect nature, and the consequences of this disregard grow ever more dire with the passing of each day, week, month, and year.

Prayers are with all those affected.

Post-debate Reuters/IPSOS poll: Harris fails to surpass fifty percent, with eleven percent still undecided, even after Trump’s notably poor performance

A political cartoon lampooning Donald Trump supporters. Illustration: Monte Wolverton

While I do not place too much weight on polls, here is proof this election is going down to the wire, regardless of how low Donald Trump will sink. It is crucial to always acknowledge that Trump commands the largest and most loyal political cult in American history, and Kamala Harris, as a mixed-race woman, faces the additional challenge of running in a country that harbours deep and violent prejudices against women of colour.

This may not be the optimistic spin most reading this want to hear, nor am I at all happy about having to say it, but it serves as a reminder that in a more rational, just, and moral society, this race would not be close, and a vile and criminal figure like Donald Trump would never have risen to power in the first place. 

I have said it before, and I shall say it again: we have not yet witnessed the full extent to which White America will go to avoid being governed by a coloured woman. Trump’s most devoted supporters will stand by him, no matter what he says or does or how frail he becomes. Prepare accordingly, to whatever extent possible, for mass bloodshed is on the horizon.

It is deeply terrifying that millions of seniors and disabled individuals who rely on Social Security shall vote to return the cretin to the White House.

Trump voters are willfully voting against their own economic interests, knowingly hurting themselves in order to ‘own the libs’. That is how much #Cult45 hates the rest of us living in their #Murica. We are witness to a sickness that defies all logic and common sense, and are standing on the precipice of civil war.

Is Kamala Harris within striking distance in Texas and Florida?

NEW POLL SHOWS FLORIDA, TEXAS WITHIN MARGIN OF ERROR IN HARRIS-TRUMP RACE {The Hill 6 September}

Polls are garbage, and I trust what my instincts continue to tell me: this is a nation beset with malevolence, anger, and ugliness. Trump embodies what America has become, which is why so many millions identify with him and remain so steadfastly loyal. This is also an undeniably racist and misogynistic country. Had one asked me before Trump’s rise to power, I would have dismissed that notion, but it turns out that half the country decided it would be an excellent idea to conform to every negative stereotype and perception of this nation and its people. Nevertheless, my instincts have been wrong on rare occasions, and it is vital that the American people prove me wrong this time. Otherwise, it will be national suicide.

Gov. Tim Walz: an absolute winner of a VP pick. If only I could believe it will make any difference

Photo: Carolyn Kaster/AP

Some may have noticed that I am most pessimistic about the upcoming US election and our overall society as it presently stands. I firmly believe that the folk of this very right-wing, majority-white country shall return Donald Trump to the White House. I remain grievously upset over the Democratic Party’s betrayal of President Joe Biden and still believe their actions shall return to plague them. My overall stance remains unchanged, though I do acknowledge that Kamala Harris has run stronger than I did anticipate, whilst Trump made an unforced error in nominating JD Vance as his running mate (or was it ‘unforced’? See my post of 13 July).

That being said, I must acknowledge that Kamala Harris has been running much stronger than I had anticipated, at least so far. She has also made an excellent choice of running mate in Governor Tim Walz. Not being from Minnesota, I was not familiar with him, but he made an immediately strong first impression on me. He is an affable, sensible, and competent candidate, far more likeable than his GOP counterpart. If only the people of #Murica respected such qualities any longer. Alas, they do not.

No matter the outcome, win or lose, I am now more inclined to lend my active support to this Democratic ticket because of Governor Walz. Yet, please remember that people do not cast their votes for Vice-President. As much as Vance wounds Trump and as much as Governor Walz aids the current Madame VP, I shall not harbour false hope. There is nothing I hate more in this universe than false hope, yet I shall do my part and obey my conscience, no matter how futile. By the way, I am more than happy to be proven wrong about the outcome of this election. I acknowledge that I am an exceptionally untrusting and pessimistic person, and a total misanthrope. What can I say? Life’s experiences have moulded me into the bitter middle-aged man that I am. I shall always err on the side of caution and brace myself for the worst when it comes to people and circumstances.

I would like the next Vice President to tell us what he and his Christian soldiers intend to do to those of us deemed unfit for their theocratic, reality-defying utopia? He, of course, would not be completely forthcoming about what they intend to do about it, but we shall soon find out (think Auschwitz).

Only halfway decent POTUS of my lifetime is bullied out of continuing his reelection bid, Democrats with blood on their hands

Photo: Bonnie Cash/UPI/Bloomberg/Getty Images

{BBC 21/7} President Joe Biden announces he will no longer seek re-election and endorses Kamala Harris to run in his stead.

I would say that I am forever done with posting about US politics, yet I know that is unlikely to endure. No matter, I shall never be enamoured of this foul age. President Joe Biden is of a different era, and for that reason, I favour him. Yet, there is no restoring sanity; the nation and its people are too far gone. It is all but a clown show now. None of you Democrats reading this shall beat me over the head, for I shall likely cast my vote for Kamala Harris, despite not being overly fond of her—though, remember, I dwell in a solid blue state, so technically I need not do aught—but we are about to learn the lengths to which the American people will go to avoid being governed by a black woman. To say it shall be ugly is putting it mildly. Shoot not the messenger.

Beyond any doubt, in these past eight years, Americans have proven they value being entertained and having their prejudices validated above all else. They will go to great lengths—even to their own detriment—to preserve this wretched state of affairs. Not a serious country, not a serious people. Joe Biden is too good for this wicked nation, and we shall reap what we have sown, which is another Donald Trump presidency and all the horrors that shall ensue.

Donald Trump: ‘the infallible one’

Maybe I shall start referring to Trump as ‘the infallible one’. He spends years running his mouth and pissing people off, but then an incident happens and somehow it is President Biden who needs to tone down the rhetoric. Golden Boy Trump can be as fat, old, and senile as he pleases, but even purported supporters of the President say it is Mr Biden who is too old and must go. Orange Godking Trump can stage a coup attempt without facing legal consequences (not in earnest, at least), and yet even President Biden and world leaders calmly wish him well and condemn political violence. All the while, #Cult45 shouts that it is ‘the left’ and President Biden causing all the problems. (And *some* on the left are causing problems, this is true). Trump can spend years hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and be all over the travel logs, but somehow it is Biden who is the pedo because - and this is a fault of Mr Biden’s - he tends to be a bit too touchy-feely with people. No matter, we are not even scratching the surface of what this man, Donald Trump, has gotten away with. No American in history has been more pampered and protected than he. I am grateful he was not killed, and I absolutely condemn anyone celebrating the actions of Thomas Matthew Crooks. But the double standards are glaring, and I will not stop speaking out against them. #Biden2024

Shooting at Trump’s Pennsylvania rally is being investigated as an attempt on his life

One can only run their mouths and threaten their political enemies, piss on our allies while praising America’s enemies, and domineer over all media for so long before someone pushes back. Of course, this all could have been staged, as well. Never put it past those who are constantly crying 'conspiracy' to engage in a conspiracy. Projection is an estimated 75% of their fascist playbook. Either way, #Cult45 must be watched more carefully than ever, as a retaliation attempt on President Biden is likely to follow. {AP 13/7}

Why ultra-right-wing populist J.D. Vance is on the shortlist of Trump running mates

Getty Images

Rumour has it that J.D. Vance, the 39 y.o. Christian nationalist senator from Ohio, will be Donald Trump’s running mate. It would be a curious choice that probably would not bring one single vote to the table that Trump has not already secured. Vance is absolutely a dystopian extremist decidedly out of touch with the social and cultural views of the majority of Americans. Nominating a woman to combat Kamala Harris would seem more logical than another white male in a more sane political environment, and this is not the 1950s. 

J.D. Vance really only makes any sense if one considers who is actually doing the picking (hint, that individual sits in the Kremlin). To quote a commenter on Reddit: ‘maybe Trump should worry about why Daddy might want a pliable 39 year old a heartbeat away. He was a useful idiot, but the big orange dildo is probably way more trouble than he's worth to Putin now’.

After being interrogated by a disrespectful little toad named Stephanopoulos, President Biden should say ‘no more Mr Nice Guy’; no sense in maintaining civility at a moment when Americans no longer respect it, and fascism is knocking on the door

Getty Images

President Biden should have, in no uncertain terms, bidden George Stephanopoulos of ABC News to go forth and fornicate with himself and should have walked off the set. Likewise, he should have refused to debate Donald Trump, for it proved both a folly and a waste of everyone’s bloody time. 

Americans today respect neither civility nor common manners - behold how they (perchance thou art among them) react on social media whenever another posts anything they dislike or disagree with; they respond with name-calling, childish emojis and memes meant to degrade, and the like. Civility is sneered at, considered a weakness. Go figure, much like their idol Donald Trump, this is a land of thin-skinned bullies who were long ago rendered incapable of expressing themselves any other manner. 

Perchance, Mr Biden might actually benefit politically by adopting a firmer stance with those acting in bad faith, rather than always striving to be the bigger man. Start giving these knaves a taste of their own medicine, Mr President, for none in modern American history deserve retribution more. And it is the only language they understand. As someone who dearly wishes to live in a more civil society, I can plainly see that being the bigger person when dealing with Trump, his supporters, and enablers has gotten us nowhere over the past eight years.

For the sake of securing President Biden’s victory in November and maintaining continuity afterwards, Kamala Harris must be replaced immediately

If anyone in this administration needs to be replaced, it is the Vice-President. Hard truth: if re-elected, President Biden shall almost certainly be compelled to step down shortly afterwards, and shall not be able to serve another four years (neither shall his orange goblin adversary, and may we proclaim this fact to the hilt). Yet, we absolutely cannot afford to abandon President Biden at this crucial moment. The calls from within the Democratic Party and among their allies in the mainstream media for the President to step aside are verging on treasonous. Having said that, we cannot ignore that Mr Biden is growing too old to do this for much longer.

There is a reason Kamala Harris is not often seen or heard: the VP’s demeanour is such that she is not a particularly likeable or relatable person. She lacks charisma and sorely lacks public speaking ability (and the United States desperately needs a well-spoken leader once more, with none in immediate sight). She is the sort who makes for an excellent district attorney but is not a capable politician. Her ascension would only invite further radicalisation of the Christian nationalist, white supremacist right (#Cult45 for short), who are already on the verge of declaring all-out civil war. To be blunt, Kamala Harris would be vanquished in an election against Donald Trump, and the consequences would be devastating. America simply does not like her, for both proper and improper reasons, yet many of these reasons are valid.

I suggest President Biden replace VP Harris with a lady of moderate politics and disposition, white in complexion. America is - then, now, and forever - a racial basket case, but now is not the hour to fret about such matters: we have a dictatorial menace to vanquish, and utmost practicality and caution must prevail. As the Christian nationalist Heritage Foundation points out - and herein they are correct - it is too late to place another candidate on the ballot in many states. We ride with President Biden until he completes the job - the task of defeating Donald Trump and the GOP in this election - but thereafter we need someone who is capable of tempering the fervour and governing with prudence. That fair lady from Minnesota, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, may be whom I have in mind, but not necessarily her. Someone of that moderate, centrist ilk. #JustSaying #Biden2024

UK General Election 2024: a tale of the timeless resilience and efficiency of British governance vs. the decay of American ‘democracy’. Americans ought take heed (but will not, naturally)

Sir Keir Starmer celebrates his electoral victory, 5 July 2024. Photo: PA Media

Though not without blemish, the political tapestry of the UK persists as a marvel of efficiency and justice, as demonstrably proven anew. As an American of WASP (White Anglo-Saxon Protestant) blood, I say #Murica must take heed; the state of our system of governance lays bare its flaws as never in history. A fair election, conducted with civility and respect, unfolded in the Motherland, a beacon for how a nation should conduct a fair election. If only Americans were willing to pay attention and were not hellbent on national suicide.

Twelve long hours have I spent as I write this, eyes glued to Sky News, and what anyone who followed mine lead would have a revelation: the electoral process within the realm of Britannia doth function with grace and order, a stark contrast to the sorry state of affairs that plagues the United States. For 237 years, the American constitution hath served as a bulwark, yet time, alas, hath rendered it painfully outdated. It has reached the limits of its usefulness, offering but a tattered defense against the ills of the modern age. Corruption festers at America’s systemic core, a corruption beyond repair. This unwieldy empire, a monstrous polyglot, hath grown too vast to govern as one. The only path forward is a sundering, carving up the land into more manageable pieces.

The British system is time-tested and reliable, and shall function a hundred years and longer. It shall function with unwavering purpose (assuming the planet has not been destroyed years hence). For all the beatings they are enduring, notice how the Tories are not blaming their historic loss on baseless cries of election fraud, nor do they forment rebellion in the vein of a J6-style coup attempt, nor are they calling for white supremacist theocracy. 

Relative to our zealous #Cult45 and adjacent Christofascist goons, even Reform UK displays a commendable restraint in matters of societal control. Nigel Farage is a man of eloquent tongue and gentle demeanor, leading a group far less fixated upon social dictates and the micromanagement of peoples’ lives. and I find that he and his bunch are not anywhere near as obsessively focused on social issues and wanting to control all aspects of citizens’ lives. Compared to the current GOP, the Tories of the past fourteen years appear as paragons of reason and competence. Yet, the Britons have proven themselves not entirely lost to the allure of charismatic conmen or the throes of moral hysteria as #Murica is in its twilight time.

The United Kingdom shall still be standing when the United States of America is but a memory. A yearning grips my soul, a longing for a place unseen, yet somehow deeply familiar, a home I've never known in this earthly coil. It has been a while since I last delved into my ancestral research, but I shall do so over the next few days. Take me home.

Kremlin prepares law to bind the wombs of Russia's daughters and essentially force them to give birth

Photo: Natalia Kolesnikova/AFP/Getty Images.

An extreme fervor for fertility amongst those who cloak themselves in piety and nationalism - and predominantly amongst men - is quickly becoming rampant in #Murica. Five minutes on Twitter will confirm that this is a major tenet of the Christian nationalists. From whence springs this obsession? Where they get nearly all their propaganda and marching from, of course, Mother Russia. Eight billion people inhabit this mortal coil, far more than was ever needed or is sustainable: yet fascists everywhere repeat the same refrain of 'we need more babies’. Indeed, Russia’s birth rates are lower than those of much of the world, but the last thing this world needs is any more Orcs. {Daily Wrap 28/6 - Kremlin targets child-free ideology: new laws to boost birth rates}

Eradicating the global fascist plague: a call for the restoration of British global leadership in troubled time on general election day in the UK

The Palace of Westminster. Photo: Britannica.

Today is the day a nation rid itself of the Tory menace that hath plagued their land for fourteen years. I hold not my breath that the US shall follow their lead regarding Trump and the GOP, but I am confident Sir Keir Starmer shall set Britain aright, as he did with the Labour Party after the disgraceful Jeremy Corbyn years.

France teeters on the brink of neo-fascism, and Germany cannot manage all alone. The United States is collapsing, Russia is not retreating from Ukraine, Hungary is drunk on nationalist populism and becoming a grave problem within the EU, China waxeth ever bolder, the Middle East is in flames, and India is swiftly becoming a menace under Modi. The UK must step up once more as leaders of the free world.

I am hopeful that mine two primary ancestral homelands, the UK and Germany, shall lead the resistance against the neo-fascist and theocratic tyranny poisoning the planet. The country fate hath placed me in, and the gaggle of idiots and sadists that populate it, shall not save the world this time. The United States and Canada were noble once, when mine grandfather and uncles fought to defeat the Nazis and Imperial Japan. Yet, the United States hath now become a monster, and Canada is increasingly irrelevant under the leadership of an insufferable, inept narcissist. In mine heart, today I am in England. #Labour #SirKeirStarmer #LeaderOfTheFreeWorld

If we are destined to live under a dictatorship, then pick one’s poison wisely: for the sake of our survival, President Biden must now go scorched earth on Trump and friends, the MSM, and all who enable and support these treasonous entities

The Biden campaign needs to go scorched earth, emphasising that a vote for Donald Trump is a vote for the genocide of the Ukrainian people.  A vote for Trump is a vote to destroy Social Security and Medicare, and impoverish and kill millions of seniors and disabled people.

Furthermore, it is crucial to remind the public - on a daily basis - what an inept buffoon Trump was during his four rotten years in the White House, most especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. No president in American history - save for James Buchanan - mismanaged a major crisis worse than Trump did with COVID-19, and this nation of shallow idiots with short attention spans needs a harsh reminder.

Finally, it is time for the administration to put the fear of God into our mainstream, corporate ‘news’ outlets. As in forcefully shut them down and charge various individuals in these outlets with sedition and treason. Start with CNN, Fox News, and the New York Times.

The Supreme Court has just ruled presidents are above the law, civil war has been all but officially declared, so no more playing around. If our destiny is to live under a dictatorship, then I will take my chances with Mr. Biden as the dictator and not Trump and his band of theocratic, Putin-loving bozos.

A nation's disgusting double standards when it comes to President Joe Biden and convicted felon Donald Trump

Reuters

The MSM is veering out of control and hath gone absurdly, pathetically over-the-top with their lamentations about the president’s debate performance, now speculating and calling for him to step aside. Allow me to be blunt: F**k all the way the hell off with this inappropriate and seditious rhetoric! Yes, the debate was ill-advised and should not have taken place. However, these swine in the MSM do actively strive to return Trump to power; never mind that he is a senile old fossil himself, but since when do any rules and standards apply to our orange godking? No president in my lifetime hath been treated worse by the media and the general public than Mr. Biden, and no president - no American, period - hath ever been more privileged and coddled by the same parties than Donald Trump. Not a serious country, not a serious people. #Murica
