It is clear from the actions of the administration, especially in the DOJ and CBP/ICE the the criminals the are looking for are themselves. What Trump is doing is the exact opposite of anything theses departments have ever been tasked with or done. You want criminals, Bondi? Look in the mirror.

He will never prosper in television with those perpetually STARTLED! eyes of his and imbecilic expression. He reminds me of those old-timey Golliwogs with his stupid fucking face.

zIt important to remember that all of Trump's fans like him because he hates the same people -- Blacks, Latinos, women, Black Women, Women of color, foreigners, etc. Raping women is just asserting his dominance, Trump is the leader of vile people.

Not only does he "say what everyone is thinking" but he does all the vile shit that your average goober is askeert to do, no matter how much he wants to.

It goes deeper than that/ Trump has sold people on a fantasy America that only ever existed in movies. When I was a small child in the 1950s , I couldn't play with other kids because of the polio scare, pre-vaccines. Consequentially, my playmates were the old folks. I paid attention to all the stories they told me about life 125 years ago. Trust me, it was no picnic. Dawn til dusk labor that was never finished, communicable disease that could kill you if you weren't careful, very few material pleasures./ Going to town involved getting horses or mules hitched to a wagon, and anj arduous two or three hour journey over pitted dirt roads. When you got back, horses or mules had to be unhitched, fed and tended to. Work that never ended. A far cry from hoping in the car and pushing the garage door opener thingy.

I try to be a bit blasé and removed about all this for the sake of my own sanity, but FUCK, this makes me so angry. Angry at Trump, angry at everyone who voted for him over two highly competent women (and we ALL knew what a predator he was prior to this), angry about the victims who will never see anything approaching justice, just angry.

I read that as "hugged himself in his cell" which is definitely a good euphemism!

Trumps says he's directing the Justice Department to investigate Democrats' and the Clintons' ties to Epstein. If I was a culpable Democrat, I would be sending Trump flowers right now, and a thank you note for the proof of malicious and selective prosecution.

How much longer before our corrupt and illegitimate Supreme Court declared that the Mad King can order malicious and selective prosecutions all he likes on accounts he such a Special Boy?

Even funnier that the released Epstein emails from yesterday quote him *explicitly* saying that Clinton never was involved in any of the *clit-oning* of young girls.

"And then there’s Epstein’s implications that he’d kept in touch with Trump after the election, even visiting him at Trump Tower, and maybe perhaps (unclear!) seeing him at Thanksgiving, along with Eva Andersson-Dubin and her husband Glenn*, David Fizel, and “hanson.” (Victor Davis, probably, and not the band.)"

Are you sure? I would think that you would find a lot more middle school age girls with Hanson over Victor Davis.

Well, I've got two Donalds and I ain't ashamed

Two Donalds and I hate them both the same

.

Let me tell you about Donald One

He's sleezy and spoiled - not one decent cell

He walks into plate glass just to Grab a wet nyphette

I really, really hate him

.

Oh-oh, oh-oh, I hate him so

Morons will do anything to get him to know

But I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed

Two lovers and I hate them both the same

.

Let me tell you about Donald Two

He's weak and cringing - a suck up to a Boss

And a traitor to our country who should be locked up or worse

I really, really hate him

OT, but dogs. DD called. She and her spouse were driving our good old boy to the vet, and asked me if I wanted to talk to him on speakerphone. And I did and she said he perked right up when he heard my voice.

I told him he’s been magnificent, and pretty soon it wouldn’t hurt anymore, and he was going to see Taffy. I told him he had family waiting for him, and he should tell them all how much we love them. And I told them again he’s been a good good boy and he gets to go for a ride in the car!

Because what do you say?

Thank you. His memory is indeed a blessing. I am glad that he has found his peace. I have strong reason to believe their spirits go on, and I think the two of them leaving so close together tells me it wasn’t hard to find her, that she waited for him.

Who knows what comes next? I prefer to believe that all the wonderful dogs I’ve loved are reunited with the people I’ve loved, and that the champagne will be chilled for when it’s my turn to cross over. You’ve been blessed, and as the sadness dims, the wonderful memories will become stronger.

I’ve felt them linger until they knew we would be all right.

I’ve caught a flash of light on golden fur running through the woods out of the corner of my eye. I think the weave and the weft of spirit gracefully transcends time and space.
