Social Media can tear our nation apart!
Today, I have been listening to stories of people who are bitterly opposed to bloggers and opinionated social media junkies who spew their political venom at the touch of a "send" button.
And then we listen to the tragedy that has happened to a lawmaker and spouse who were shot dead in Minnesota by a man who was so filled with hate that he had a long list of others in the victim's political party he had planned to also kill.
This, evidently, is the "preferred-next step up" from actually voting against the opposition party. What have we become, people?
I confess. . . while I've considered the possibility of writing a blog and pushing the next kook over the edge, I'm going to sit down with myself and have a good talk. This ain't the good old days of the good old newspaper and television news anymore! Social Media seems to be a much quicker and more direct way than waiting for an election!
Social Media: needing companionship and therefore best suited to living - electronically - in comunities of other social "friends" like Facebook over 3 billion users, YouWube with 2.5 billion users, and Instagram and WhatsApp with 2 billion users. Others include WeChat and platforms within the Meta family, like Messenger.
Let's talk about the makeup of a person who is social. They like to be around or in the same atmosphere of people. For examople, a social butterfly is someone who is social or friendly with everyone, flitting from person to person, the way a butterfly might. The word social comes from the Latin socius meaning "friend." When you're being social, you're everyone's friend. That makes "social media" the perfect game for you!
Thus, if you want to be involved with the social media, you will want to be "sociable" with as many "friends" as possible. It can be a sign of great importance to you if your number of "friends" are greater. To go one step further, it is paramount if your goal is of political importance. If you belive you can influence a "friend's" thinking, politically, you must have as many friends as possible.
So, what are you thinking about when you finally hit that "friend accepted" key and it turns out to be the one who will ring your door bell at around three a.m., and shoot you before you even know why?
Don't try to figure it all out. It's been figured out a few years ago. You, I and others just chose not to accept it. . . yet.
Social Media has the ability to help us tear our nation apart - and the social media platforms - like those listed above - are counting on it!

Sit Down, Shut Up, and Learn
Welch, exhausted and frustrated, asked Senator Joseph McCarthy "Have you no sense of decenty, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of dedency?" No sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?"

The Crossing of Our Rubicon
"Crossing the Rubicon" is an idiom that means making an irreversible decision or passing a point of no return. It originates from the historical event of Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon River with his army in 49 BC. This act, which was against Roman law, marked the beginning of a civil war and irrevocably changed the course of Roman history."
The course of action that the Trump admiistration has taken since day one of this term of office will now be known as our American Rubicon. We have allowed Trump to shape a new and deadly government of insurrectionists who will oblige him at his every command. The entire administration - plus like-minded MAGA cult members from coast to coast and border to borde - will follow his orders as they turn away from our democracy and pledge their allegiance to Trump.
We are now, for all intents and purposes, a country of nearly-full fledged authoritarians and/or members of a dictatorship, which will give the world another "Banana Republic."
What has happened today in Los Angeles was seen and heard as the defining moment of the "new" Fascist Trump Administration. They have turned their back on democracy.
I ask you to watch and listen to not just what happened today, but to what it will all foretell of our future - and the death of the world's greatest democracy that was ever known!
It was important to learn what transpired today, but it is much more important to learn what it means for the future of our nation.

AG Bondi's Retribution Time. . .
"NA-NAA-NA-NAA-NA-NAA-NA-NAA-NA-NAA-NA-NAA-"
She was mocking the press, the Democrats, the previous president. his staff, the previous FBI director. . . and she began naming every single person in the United States who did not vote for Donald Trump. It was her time to shine!
She tried to tell all of those present that Abrego Garcia was a bad, bad man. Everyone told her she made a mistake when she deported him, but she knew he was a terrible, nasty, man. He was deported but she got him back to stand trial here in America for horrible, nasty crimes. I was right. He should have been deported. I was right! I knew I was right, dammit!
Reporter: "When did you find all of those charges against him?
Bondi: "Well, we dug deep and found them - recently.
Reporter: You mean right after the whole country proved you and Trump made a mistake deporting Garcia?
Bondi: The Biden bunch should have done it. Everyone working for Biden just let Garcie get away with it, but Donald Trump and me took care of business and that terrible man, Garcia, is gonna' spend a long time in prison - or worse! I was right. He needed to be deported. Now that we've dug up something on him, we're bringing him back here for trial. We did a good and just job. Biden didn't, but Donald Trump and me did a good job. Yes sir!"
Bondi: "No more questions."
Bondi: "You can all go home now"
Bondi: "Bye."
All of the reporters stood silent and frozen in place - What the hell just happened here?
(Some of the quotes were misquoted but the intent was there.)

"A fine kettle of fish we've gotten ourselves into"
In 2016, JD Vance said, "I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a cynical asshole like Nixon . . . or that he's America's Hitler."

DOGE. . . Just What the hell Hit Us?
Miss Snarky Senator

"I falsely assumed everyone in attendance knew we were all going to one day meet our demise. I'm just glad they didn't ask me to explain the "tooth fairy" to them.
That, my friends, is the quintessential example of "Republican "Snarkism" to the voters - in this case many in attendance were her voters!
You can always tell a Republican - but you can't tell 'em much!
Stay tuned. Li'l Miss Snarky may want to do one more "walk-back". . .or maybe just give up and leave "bad enough" alone.
I'll bet she's thinkin' about it, though.
