Republicans And Male Sexual Assault And Abuse Becoming A Norm!

admin 2 Comments

Republicans and Sexual Assault and Abuse are becoming a norm, and the lack of a moral and ethical standard surrounding Donald Trump is maddening!

Trump himself has been convicted of sexual assault and abuse, but apparently will not pay the price, since he was elected to return to the Oval Office.

But Trump is surrounding himself with a slew of immoral, unethical characters, who have a record of sexual assault and abuse, and or cheating on wives, including

Matt Gaetz
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Pete Hegseth

And this is just the tip of the iceberg!

In the past, people with such low morals would be prevented from serving in a President’s cabinet, and in many cases, their political career was destroyed by scandals.

One thinks back to Gary Hart and Al Franken, as just two examples of Democrats, who were destroyed by revelations of sex scandals, that were, actually, quite minor by comparison, but the Democratic Party worked against them, and their careers in public elected office came to an end!

But now, Republicans, particularly those surrounding Donald Trump, have no accountability for their misbehavior!

And yet, millions of Americans seem unphased by this reality, which demonstrates how ethical and moral standards have declined precipitously in recent years!

Two Women Republican Senators Likely To Resist Trump Appointments, But Can They Gain Two Other Republican Senators As Supporters?

admin Leave a comment

Two women Republican Senators who have often disagreed with and voted against Donald Trump—Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Susan Collins of Maine—are seen as likely to resist many of Trump’s controversial Cabinet nominees.

Both women voted to convict Trump on impeachment charges in his second trial. Both are seen as moderates, and have shown courage and conviction in their careers in the Senate, with Collins in the Senate since 1997 and Murkowski since 2002.

The question is whether they can gain at least two Republican colleagues to join them in fighting to reject Trump’s outrageous Cabinet nominees, including:

Matt Gaetz, Attorney General
Pete Hegseth, Defense
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Health and Human Services
Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence

It seems clear other Republican Senators are very unhappy with some, or all of these choices, but will they be willing to challenge Trump is the unknown matter.

And sadly, future Senate Majority Leader John Thune, of South Dakota, not Trump’s “favorite”, has to deal with the likelihood of Trump deciding to call for the Senate to go into recess.

This would be an abdicating of their responsibility as a co-equal branch of government, and allowing two year “recess” appointments, which might be challenged in the courts, but with no clear answer as to what the resolution on the matter would be!

Impossible To Reject All Of Trump’s Outrageous Cabinet Appointments!

admin 13 Comments

Reality must sink in, that there is no possibility to expect the Republican controlled US Senate to reject all of Donald Trump’s outrageous Cabinet appointments. Trump is not allowing FBI checks of his nominees, and threatens to force recess appointments of his nominees, if the majority Republicans do not play along!

At most, maybe one might be stopped, with the one thought to be most likely being Attorney General nominee, former Congressman Matt Gaetz, who has most members of the House of his party, and many Republican Senators really opposed to him, based on his scandalous life, but also his horrendous relationships with fellow Republicans over the years.

Sadly, Director of National Intelligence nominee, former Congresswoman and Democrat Tulsi Gabbard; Secretary of Health and Human Services nominee Robert F. Kennedy, Jr (also a former Democrat); and Pete Hegseth, Fox News host and nominee for Secretary of Defense, despite horrendous information about all three of them, will unlikely be able to be stopped.

All of these male nominees have been accused of sexual harassment and sexual abuse, but will likely overcome accusations of their misbehaviors, as Donald Trump has managed to do so throughout his life!

The idea that America’s Justice Department; Intelligence Agencies; Health Care System; and Military and Defense establishment are under attack by extremists chosen by a President who is out to destroy the existing system of American democracy, is a reality hard to accept.

All decent people, including this author and blogger, are fighting off a sense of despair and depression, but knowing that if good people give in and give up, then the damage done will be greater, than if there is resistance.

Two “Democrats” Who Now Are MAGA Republicans And Cabinet Members!

admin 3 Comments

It is stunning that two former Democrats are now MAGA Republicans, and will be part of Donald Trump’s second term Cabinet, assuming they are confirmed by the Republican majority in the US Senate!

Both are very dangerous to be part of the Cabinet, but sadly, we are faced with the likelihood that they will be in key positions

Tulsi Gabbard, former Democratic Congresswoman from Hawaii, as Director of National Intelligence, despite her flirtations with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and Russian President Vladimir Putin over recent years. The thought that such a person, who is a massive security risk, would become the leading spy executive of our federal government is horrifying beyond belief!

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, son of the late Senator and Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Kennedy is a conspiracy theorist; anti vaccine advocate; against flouride in America’s water supply; and desirous of damaging America’s health care system. He is a disgrace to the Kennedy family name, and has a horrendous history of drug and alcohol abuse, and sexual misconduct during his three marriages.

Neither Gabbard nor Kennedy should have any impact on American government policy, and both are very dangerous, but unlikely that either can be stopped from gaining power under Donald Trump!

Unqualified And Controversial Trump Appointments Abound In Early Selections!

admin 35 Comments

When one observes Donald Trump’s early appointments, one concludes that he has decided to name unqualified individuals to a multitude of major positions.

When one can say that Florida Senator Marco Rubio becoming Secretary of State is the “best” appointment of a horrendous list, that summarizes what a disaster the nation is facing!

Rubio has 14 years of Senate experience, and is on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and while no great intellectual, he meets the minimum requirements to lead our foreign policy establishment, but is no star in any sense.

But then, one looks at other appointments:

Pete Hegseth, a Fox News Host, as Secretary of Defense
Kristi Noem, South Dakota Governor, as Secretary of Homeland Security
Elise Stafanek, NY Congresswoman, as United Nations Ambassador
Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas Governor, as US Ambassador to Israel
Tulsi Gabbard, former Democratic Congresswoman from Hawaii as Director Of National Intelligence
Lee Zeldin, former NY Congressman, as head of the Environmental Protection Agency

Pete Hegseth is a total surprise to the Pentagon with no real credentials to head the Pentagon.

Kristi Noem has ZERO experience to head Homeland Security, and has been an embarrassment as Governor of a very small state, South Dakota.

Elise Stefanik is an ultimate example of an individual who transformed, conveniently, from being a moderate Republican to a MAGA Republican, as a way to advance her career.

Mike Huckabee is a Christian Zionist, whose ultimate aim is to convert Jews to his radical brand of Christianity, the last thing that American Jews would support, but may be acceptable to the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, as he works to take over the Palestinian territories.

Tulsi Gabbard is a former Democratic Presidential contender, who has gone over to the Republican Party, after going off the rails in her foreign policy views, and now will be more powerful over intelligence gathering than anyone else .

Lee Zeldin has no desire to promote environmental protection, so can be described as a fox put into a chicken coop.

It seems clear that the major qualification to be in the Trump Cabinet is to be slavishly loyal to his agenda, with no concept of considering what is constitutional and legitimate!

Add to this list Robert F. Kennedy Jr. possibly being Secretary of Health and Human Services, and Billionaire Elon Musk everywhere, trying to have a major influence.

This list will become even more controversial as the days pass, and fireworks are possible on some of the appointments.

And now, as I am writing, controversial Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz has been chosen to be Attorney General, which would seem extremely divisive.

It also means now THREE Republican House members, including Mike Waltz of Florida as National Security Adviser, along with Stefanik and Gaetz, will be removed from that chamber, endangering, at least for the short term, having a Republican majority, which seems a lunatic move!

The last 24 hours have been shocking, and will continue to be in the coming hours and days!

Disturbing Influence Of Elon Musk And Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., As Neither Should Be Near Power!

admin 15 Comments

It has only been a few days since Donald Trump won a second term in the Oval Office, surprising millions of Americans.

But now, the apparently growing influence of Billionaire Elon Musk, along with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., is alarming even many who voted for Trump.

Musk, the wealthiest person on the planet, is a control freak who would wish he could be President, but is ineligible, since he was born in South Africa.

But his dominating personality and desire to influence national and international policy in ways that benefit his own bottom line, has for now, at least, attracted Donald Trump, since Musk contributed more than $100 million to the Trump Presidential campaign.

RFK Jr. has also attracted Trump support, and the fear is that he will play a major role, possibly in the Trump Cabinet, as possible Secretary of Health and Human Services or specific health agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration, advocating his crazy campaign against vaccines, and even fluoridation of drinking water.

Both many medical and dental professionals are deeply alarmed that his looney attitudes on public health will endanger America, if Trump gives him a free hand to do what he wants, which so far, is the indication of what is about to happen.

The nation is in the early stages of what is likely to be a series of nightmares on many areas of government policy, brought about by millions of Americans, who have lost all sense of sanity and common sense, in their decision to support Donald Trump, despite the many shortcomings and scandals of the first Trump Administration!

Electing Trump Allows Dangerous Characters To Promote Policy!

admin 6 Comments

What is even more scary than Donald Trump being returned to the Oval Office is that it would allow dangerous characters to promote their evil intentions, as they would have ultimate power over many areas of government policy, with Trump not fully engaged, and allowing his loyalists to do whatever they wish.

There would be no guard rails of people who intervened in the Trump Presidency over four years, and in many cases, then resigned or were fired, but now “true believers” with extreme ideas would be in total charge.

These include the following, just a short list but terrifying:

JD Vance (a heartbeat away from the Presidency)
Elon Musk
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Stephen Miller
Steve Bannon
Roger Stone
Tucker Carlson
Howard Lutnick
Rudy Giuliani
Matt Gaetz
Marjorie Taylor Greene
Laura Loomer
Charlie Kirk
Nick Fuentes

These characters and many others would be a massive threat to the continuation of American democracy and the rule of law.

Crazy: RFK Jr In Charge Of Health Care Under Trump?

admin 6 Comments

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is a loose cannon, who has demonstrated basic psychological problems, and has embarrassed his siblings and other Kennedy family relatives by his outrageous behavior and utterances over the past few years.

Clearly, he is mentally unstable and dangerous if he was given power.

But now, RFK Jr. is telling us that Donald Trump, if elected, will put him in charge of the Health and Human Services cabinet agency, as well as the Food and Drug Administration, US Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and other related agencies.

RFK Jr is a threat to public health, who has gone on a rampage against vaccines; attacking the great Dr. Anthony Fauci, who served all Presidents from Ronald Reagan to Joe Biden; and his private life is a constant scandal of sexual impropriety, which together should eliminate him as a potential man of power under Donald Trump!

But Donald Trump has no ethics, morals, scruples himself, and is no role model for American domestically or on the world scene, so yet another reason of thousands to work to defeat Trump and put RFK Jr. back into obscurity, already repudiated by his own family members!

Trump Madison Square Garden Rally Reminiscent Of Nazi Party Rally In NYC In 1939

admin 4 Comments

The Donald Trump Republican rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City last night was reminiscent in many ways of the infamous Nazi Party rally at the same venue in February 1939.

There were racist, antisemitic, misogynistic, white supremacist, and nativist utterances utlized by a host of speakers, and a specific and vicious attack on Puerto Ricans, who are Americans, but whose island was treated horribly by Donald Trump after the disasatrous Hurricane Maria in 2017.

One can hope that the large number of Puerto Ricans in New York, Florida, Illinois, and elsewhere will vote against Donald Trump, and that could affect election results in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and other “swing” states.

It was disgusting also to see some American Jews contributing to the disgraceful rhetoric at the rally, with them having no memory or concern about how Jews were treated at the 1939 rally, which took place before World War II, which led to the Nazi Holocaust!

The cast of characters assisting Trump at this despicable display of hatred included, among others:

JD Vance
Mike Johnson
Tulsi Gabbard
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr
Byron Donalds
Elise Stefanik
Elon Musk
Tucker Carlson
Howard Lutnick
Dr. Phil McGraw

And Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe who used vile racist language jokes, should be never hired to be a comedian anywhere, as he is a disgrace, and sees nothing wrong with his outrageous behavior, which, interestingly, led to a rebuke by the Trump campaign, which realized how it would harm support among Latinos!

Kamala Harris Has Much Republican Support, While Trump Has RFK Jr. And Tulsi Gabbard!

admin 13 Comments

Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris has much Republican support from those who have served under Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, and even Donald Trump, along with those who were involved in the John McCain and Mitt Romney Presidential campaigns.

Also, many former Republican Senators and Representatives have endorsed Harris, but sadly the vast majority of present office holders in Congress, and sitting Republican governors, have been unwilling to abandon Donald Trump.

At the same time, if one looks for Democrats who are supporting Donald Trump, the list is very short, including:

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who ran for President as an Independent, and then withdrew and endorsed Trump.

Tulsi Gabbard, former Hawaii Congresswoman who was a contender in Democratic Presidential primaries in 2020.

Rod Blagojevich, former Illinois Governor who served time in prison for trying to “sell” the appointment of a US Senator to replace Barack Obama, when he became President. Donald Trump pardoned him after he had served eight years in prison.

Peter Deutsch, former South Florida Congressman, but out of office for the past 20 years.
