I was out protesting the second Gulf War. It was incredibly unpopular to do so, because of Weapons of Mass Destruction that Colin Powell assured us that Iraq was on the brink of using against the United States. Colin Powell lied to us.
That war began in 2003, which was 23 years ago. We still have troops there and not a whiff of a Weapon of Mass Destruction has ever been discovered. But what the war proved is that Americans will believe lies told to them without any hard evidence at all, and they will not remember it well enough to hold the liars accountable.
Here we are today, with millions, if not billions, tossed away in Iraq every year, and lies are more common than used diapers in the White House.
Trump’s War on Minnesota has taken a turn for the surreal. He and Pam Bondi, his Attorney General, have declared anyone murdered by ICE to be a domestic terrorist, despite what video evidence has shown. They’ve murdered nurses and school teachers, practically anyone who gets in their way, but suddenly, it’s ICE who is crying foul.
Trump isn’t paying ICE their bonuses. They don’t have the Health Insurance they signed up for. And they’re getting doxed every single day by average Americans who are just plain tired of living in a police state.
America is fighting back.
Last week, dozens of high schools reported students simply walking out to protect ICE snatching children at schools, to lure their parents into surrendering. The students, in most cases, were told if they left the school buildings, they would be punished. Thousands walked out anyway.
The “No Kings Protest” and the “Anti Ice Protests are growing larger each week. Two weeks ago, in Valdosta Georgia, a blood red Republican town, two schools had walk outs and a protest downtown in subfreezing temperatures drew one hundred brave, and chilly souls.
People I have known for years that voted for Trump before they realized what he was, are now joining social action groups. They’re showing up with their children. Things are going to hell and they realize all issues begin at the top.
And this isn’t even mentioning the Epstein Files.
Mostly, there is a core group of activists who believe all things that Trump says and does, no matter how weird or how many people are killed, is an attempt by Trump to push those files away from the light.
The problem, at least for Trump, is those files have been released in countries not run by an Orange Dictator. The names of American politicians and fat cats are going to be brought into the light. The files mention Trump’s name thousands of times. He has every reason to fear those files. He could go to prison forever plus a million years.
Trump had lied, and he has back-stabbed, and he had robbed his followers for years. Now, suddenly, the game is over, and people are angry. Those of us who have opposed him since day one are seeing a wave of new protestors making signs and yelling.
America is rising against the Orange Pedo.
Why are you still worshiping him?
Take Care,

I couldn’t say it better. There are some that will say you should stick to humor but that can be hard to do when the present administration is no laughing matter and affects all the non-super rich in a negative way.
Even though opposed the new Detroit-Windsor bridge figuring that when a Republican Governor (Dick Snyder) said it wouldn’t cost us it would be just another lie. Even though my last crossing on the other bridge showed it needed a lot of repairs.
Now Trump is threatening the new bridge like a petulant six-year-old. Maybe they can put his name on one of the construction crew’s porta-johns and satisfy him. Or actually give him the non-existent “Michigan Man of the Year” award he already claimed he has gotten.
Ever wonder why he had so many business failures?
