When you plan for your wedding, it is all in the details.
Thousands of them.
All needing to be addressed at the same moment in time…now.
And just when you think you have it all done: the accommodations, the flowers, the ceremony, pre and post-celebrations, food and music, you gather at the house filled with joy, love and anticipation.
And then an “errant” missile from a U.S. base tears through the roof, exploding and killing twenty friends and relatives.
Oops!
Look, we have the greatest arsenal of weapons ever assembled on planet Earth; we can kill a record number of people anytime we want to if we so desire. We have the most technologically-advanced New Age weaponry available. If we don’t have the money to build more and bigger weapons, we will overtax the citizenry (except the rich) or impose an illegal tariff on another group of people we wish to alienate.
We just don’t have anyone who can shoot straight.
He just doesn’t get it…
OK on three…
All together now!
One…two…
No, you can’t control the elections by selecting which ballots you will count and when you will count them.
So says Judge Indira Talwani and anyone else who possesses critical thought.
So he goes and files another appeal to his hand-picked Supreme Court and hopes that they do what he is paying them to do and elect him King of the World.
But the kingdom continues to crumble from within.
Everyone (but him) knows it’s over…
Soon the “piling on” will begin as once-loyal insurrectionists scramble to disassociate themselves and put distance between themselves and the looniest Chief Executive ever produced by the United States.
If you really want to torture the old goat, just ignore him.
Stop writing about him.
And exactly when are Pennsylvanians going to get rid of Lurch, er John Fetterman?
The president is still not all that happy at the obstacles (like common sense) that are preventing him from building his self-aggrandizing Arch of Bullshit.
On three…the Melania eye-roll…
One…two…
If he got around by bicycle, he’d have a tire repair kit on hand.
Instead, since the last few remaining hairs are dying off his cue ball head, he keeps a minion carrying a ”skinhead repair kit” on hand so that the world will think he is still as young as he envisions himself in that empty, polluted brain of his, what’s left of it.
What’s the big deal?
If I was the president and I didn’t have the use of my hands, I would keep a minion on hand to scratch my balls if needed.
He already has shrunken brain syndrome and now, at his age, shrunken head syndrome will be next…
Germany has Europe’s largest economy and some Germans are celebrating a victory in a regional election that saw the AfD (Alternative for Germany) party win seats but still fall short of a majority.
However, the fact the country has moved so far right, they are approaching the rarified air of Naziism once again, has at least put smiles on many faces in Deutschland.
And stay the fuck out!
Raise your hand if you are surprised that the U.S. is finally withdrawing the last of our forces from Iraq!
That’s what we said fifteen years ago, only to return four years later for another eleven years.
So in the Big Picture, is the world actually getting closer?
Far from it.
Stay well.
