“Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac.”

— Henry Kissinger

You all know what’s going on. We all know what’s going on. There’s no mystery about the fact that we’ve inherited a deeply neurotic individual who was terrified by an abusive father. Now its our turn. One writer described our situation as living in a form of intentional Chaos. Daily shocks, offenses to our sense of right and wrong, — lack of any empathy for those unable to care for themselves — as was our ability as (formerly) the greatest nation on earth. No more. And the Republicans have willingly swallowed the Koolaid as they give free reign to racism, misogyny, dishonesty and unTruth. Actually, it’s quite amazing. And, they have the balls to claim religiosity — that they’re religious. Any Christian I know from growing up would puke on these people. They are completely full of shit. The so-called pastors are con artists, grifters, and phonies collecting cash like our Head Clown and Oligarch.

Now we not only are concerned for the weak, disabled, damaged, and abused among us — but, like the shitheads from the East German Stasi, we must be concerned with being disappeared, turned in by neighbors for being critical of our leaders — and, we have to genuflect in the presence of Clowns! Don’t kid yourself, it IS that bad.

If you’re stupid.

Forget about the “Signalgate” fiasco. What could anyone have expected from that bunch of losers. We all knew how that shit was going to go from Day 1. From the selection of these losers to the training at Clown School you had to be brain dead not to know that giving away the store was all that we ever could have expected. My uncle was CIA and he took his job seriously. Now, he would have suggested just walking up to his KGB adversaries, simply asking them what they wanted to know — why all the secrecy and games!

Mark Rudd was a protester at Columbia — you know the school where students held sit-ins and took over the school in the sixties to protest the Vietnam War — a senseless, useless, exercise in futility that killed 2 million civilians, 1.1 million North Vietnamese soldiers, 250,000 South Vietnamese and 58,000 U.S. soldiers. This time around the protesters are hiding. it’s hard to tell whether we have a generation of cowards or whether the Coup has already occurred.

Apparently , the fear of losng grant money trumps Freedom of Speech and Columbia is now mortally wounded. I’d once been a doctoral student there but now I can’t imagine going near the place. In fact, as an example of circuitous cowardice the President of the school made a deal to cower to the Administration of Clowns and Oligarchs and then dropped out a week later. As Groucho said, “I wouldn’t want to belong to a club that would have me as a member.” Can you imagine applying for a job and tempting an employer with your “B.A., M.A. or even J.D. from Columbia University?”

“Holy shit, get that fucking asshole out of here. That’s one of those Clown schools where only the new and improved Law firms that take orders from the Administration and whose lawyers can enter Federal Buildings and refuse to defend Free Speech activists, protestors or Democrats — have graduated.”

“Oh, yeah, and rhe School of Journalism teaches you how bend over for Republicans.”

By the way, the Republicans have found a solution to the lack of workers after the deportations manage to eliminate manpower, as has been the case in the U.S. for generations. DeSantis figured it all out.

We’re going to put our kids to work by lowering the legal age — nothing like a ten year old working hard in the factory before doing homework.
