Pics: Republikkkan lies.
1. If espionage is so important for the extreme Reich, why haven't they gone after The Big Orange Rump for selling out our national secrets?
Did any of their billion dollar payments (from foreign enemies) trickle down to your blood-stained hands?
I'm betting nothing did...
Not even change for a dollar.
2. This is why minorities don't vote for your Party.
Rather than trying to re-enslave folks, you should have tried to uplift the whole country...
But, your heart doesn't worry about the welfare of others - right?
It's all about your access to power, sex & money - right?
Is this why you surround yourself with soulless, yes-folk?
People who are only interested in their own dreams of power & money...
Folk that stab you in the back when you fire them - or, leave them to take the fall for you...
You're hurting your own Party about as much as you wish you could hurt the real Law & Order Party - the Democrats.
3. This is what the U.S. will look like under Putin's rule.
But, you don't care about that.
Instead, you've surrounded yourself with traitors - hoping so to be safe.
Traitors forever together - right?
You're forgetting that you've had to 'buy' so many of them to your side.
That's makes them dangerous - when Putin has no more need of you...
You didn't think that he'd actually let you live as some kind of overlord?
Your own 'popularity' would mark you out to be a possible challenger to his powerbase.
That's something he won't tolerate...
4. As for the billionaires that bought your spiel, if they can buy your help - they can buy anybody.
You'll have to be wary of anyone who becomes more popular than you with these corporate 'barons.'
They're so 'money conscious' that they'll always be on the lookout for someone who costs them less...
5. As for the white folk that follow you blindly, they don't understand their future use in your dystopia.
While minorities & Democrats will be fighting for their freedoms, poor white folk will have to serve as cannon fodder for your new, privileged Nazi leaders.
Some of you are even looking forward to a new Civil War.
Hoping to re-ignite the self esteem of your Aryan hate & jealousy of others.
But, you're just disposable toys that couldn't even kill the Vice-President.
All you did that January day was to become marked folk. Liable for your actions - just as you thought you had gotten away, Scott free...
So, how many of you were actually pardoned by tRump?
Without, that is, having to pay for the 'favor.'
6. So, how many of you have lived in a totalitarian nation?
Not many I'd bet.
It's not like living in the U.K. - that's a constitutional monarchy. You still have rights.
I'm talking about China, Russia or North Korea...
In these countries, everyone lives in fear. Especially those in power.
Any act, no matter how innocent, can be your last.
Anyone can be picked up by the Secret Police.
And, you have no real legal protect- ions against false arrest.
Nobody has a totally safe life.
7. We should all be working together to fight against the real problems of our times.
Things like climate change, solar eruptions & meteor strikes - for God's sake!!
"Think of your children. They're the ones who will suffer thru a hellish future...
I know the American political system is capitalistic & doesn't really care - much - about relieving poverty or easing medical assistance.
But, you still have access to better personal freedoms than in any known totalitarian state.
Banana republics are places where there's no question that you live in an oppressive & invaded land.
Closed countries that good people are dying to leave...
What does it take for you to see the truth?
Aren't you a good person?
Aren't you worthy of better treat- ment?
Let me know...

Whew! Finally. Thanks, Bob Iger.
(Times) “Given the considerable changes that have occurred since the announcement of this project, including new leadership and changing business conditions, we have decided not to move forward with construction of the campus,” D’Amaro said. “This was not an easy decision to make, but I believe it is the right one. As a result, we will no longer be asking our employees to relocate.”
Besides LGBT people, I'm sure young women and non-white employees will be glad of this change in plans as well. Florida is such a hostile place to live, there are travel warnings against going there.

Pic: Trying something new here - a focused overview.
In 2014, Governor Rick Snyder was accused of criminally mishandling the Flint Water Crisis.
A 2020 Vice article revealed his (& others) corruption & a subsequent cover-up attempt.
In early 2021, Snyder & others were all formally charged for the crisis.
But, late in 2022, a Democratic judge let Snyder off the hook...
His "Reinvention of Michigan" was a "shared sacrifice" of taxing workers's pensions - while abolishing the higher business tax & replacing it with a low, flat rate...
Snyder passed a law to prevent same sex partners (of public workers) from receiving health benefits.
This law was later struck down by a federal judge.
But, he helped pass a bipartisan state tax on online purchases.
Then, Snyder got an anti-union bill - thru both Houses & without public hearings or committee votes!
This made it illegal for union dues to be required for employment.
But, worse, the Employee Free Choice Act can't be repealed via referendum...
President Obama stated that this law was about the "right to work - for less money..."
Snyder made abortion clinics pay for a state license, unnecessarily increasing costs for such facilities.
Worse was to come.
Detroit was declared to be under a financial emergency & was placed under the power of an emergency manager.
This made Detroit part of group of such emergency appointments.
Over half of Michigan's black folks ended up in places where 'their' local government wasn't voted in by the locals...
Then, Snyder helped strike down a bill that affirmed the government's & military's 'right' to lock up anybody - without trial & for as long as wanted.
Perhaps the best of his few 'good' deeds.
He also offered visas to 50,000 immigrant workers - with advanced degrees - to help jumpstart Detroit's economy.
But then, Snyder had Flint's water source changed to the polluted Flint River.
This water was so corrosive that it leached lead out of the old water pipes - poisoning the city's children most!!
Worse, it turned out that Snyder knew about the dangers of the Flint River - 6 months after Flint began using river water - to save money...
So, Flint born Michael Moore called for the governor's arrest & started an online petition.
But, as is usual in such situations, it took a class action lawsuit to finally get things moving.
A state of emergency was finally declared - by Snyder himself.
But, it was, as also usual - too little & too late...
The damage had been done.
And the criminal behind it walked free.
End.
