Oh, now we are getting somewhere.
President Donald J. Trump, who pardoned every last man convicted of insurrection on January 6, 2021, now is in high dudgeon because Six Democratic Congressmen/women released a video reminding members of the United States military that they have taken an oath to defend and follow the Constitution, and, without mentioning the Nuremberg trials where it was established that "just following orders" does not excuse you from crimes against humanity, like shooting down innocent mothers and children in My Lai, Vietnam; they made it pretty clear soldiers deployed to those chaotic, dangerous, nightmarish Democrat cities of Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles have to be willing to refuse to shoot unarmed women, children, men, even if they are Democrats, or Heaven forbid, Spanish speaking.
Trump went on Truth to say:
1/ These Democrats are traitors and insurrectionists.
2/ They should be arrested.
3/ They should all be hanged.
So, we have been told for years we are to take Mr. Trump seriously, but not literally. But what does that mean exactly? That when he calls for the execution of his enemies, of the opposition, we are just suppose to smile and say, "Oh, that's just Donald being Donald again. He doesn't really mean it." When he says, "Fight like hell!" to the crowd that turns and rushes down to the Capitol, he didn't really mean it? He's not really being serious, but we should take him seriously, although not literally.
When Stalin said, "A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic," as he signed the executive order for the purge of millions, was he just someone to take seriously, but not literally?
In Donald's case, when he calls a reporter "Piggy" we laugh, or we are supposed to. When he calls for executions, are we supposed to laugh?
Makes your head spin.
MAGAland is telling you to hear him, but not listen to him.
Or something.

| They Meant It: Hanging |
Stephen Miller, who has never served in the military, followed up by saying they were insurrectionists suborning insurrection in the military. Mr. Miller has never sworn the oath the soldiers, sailors and airmen swear, has he? He is not a lawyer. Does he know what insurrection is? Why should we believe what he says about these veterans who are now serving in Congress? Has he ever sworn the oath they swore when they came to Congress? Does he have the faintest idea what he's talking about? Should we take him seriously? Literally?
But, no question, Mr. Miller meant every word.

| Maggie In Uniform |
Karoline Leavitt insisted these Congressmen and Congresswomen are terrible, horrible, no good, very bad terrorists, and none of them wears a gold cross on a necklace, not even the women: Elissa Slotkin (a former CIA officer) , Chrissy Houlahan (no, not that Houlahan, not "hot lips" but she was in fact an Air Force officer) and New Hampshire's own Maggie Goodlander, a Naval officer and a lawyer who worked on one of Trump's impeachments, so you know she needs to be executed by Trump's criteria. Has Karoline Leavitt ever worn her country's uniform?

| Chrissy Houlahan |
As for the men, we've got an astronaut (Mark Kelly), a former Army Ranger, who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, (Jason Crow) and Chris Deluzio (Navy vet.)
 |
| Jason Crow |
For the record, none of these folks Trump now calls traitors ever claimed exemption for heel spurs.
 |
| Trump's excuse |
So, all of this is apparently no problem for MAGAworld, a President doing his Joe Stalin channeling thing. Purge the Congress of vexatious Democrats, especially those who were suckers, saps and fool enough to actually fight for their country in the military.
You know Mr. Trump is famous for his malleability--he listens to the last person he talks to and that becomes his new belief--so he's been hanging out (forgive the expression) with MBS, the Saudi Prince of Princes, the guy who chops up journalists who annoy him, and now Mr. Trump is all about executing dissenters.
Actually, considering the alternative offered by Prince MBS, Miss Piggy, the reporter, got off easy. She could have been pork chops by dinner, if she had said that as Air Force One landed in Saudi Arabia.

And, in related news, did you ever wonder how they ever found a grand jury willing to indict Letitia James on obviously Trumped up charges of lying on her mortgage application and James Comey for lying about something?
 |
| Lindsey Helligan |
Well, it turns out, in Comey's case, the grand jury never did indict him--Trump's leggy blonde prosecutor, Lindsey Helligan, who is not really a prosecutor but plays one on T.V., well Ms. Helligan had the foreman of the grand jury sign the indictment and one other juror signed it, but it takes 10 grand jurors, and they never did sign on, so the judge is faced with a trial for a man who was never actually indicted, because, for all her movie star looks, Ms. Helligan did not know how to indict someone before bringing him to trial.
 |
| Ms. Bondi |
Pam Bondi, another leggy blonde, (Helligan's boss and supervisor) signed off on this indictment, so she also lied to the court.
Can we take these ladies, these graduates of law schools, seriously? Mad Dog has not yet googled where these two went to law school, but he's betting it was the Kim Kardashian School of Law. Clearly, we cannot take them literally.
 |
| Stormy: Are We Seeing a "type" here? |
No worries, however: they are both blonde and wear those fetching gold crosses, which is all that matters to their boss, Mr. Trump.
 |
| He was just following orders: Nuremberg |
For that matter, can we take RFK JR or Kristi Noem, who is so in love with costumes, cowboy hats, cool bullet proof vests, and photo shoots of her riding a horse, seriously?
In fact, looking at those cringe worthy cabinet meetings, where they go around the big conference room table and each cabinet minister tell Mr. Trump how wonderful he is and how he is the best President EVER, how can we take any of these people seriously?
But maybe that's the point. This government is, really is, a joke.
But who is the joke on?
This America, man.

CODA:
I think it is to time for this administration to start prosecuting those Dems that appear to be advocating for a military coup. Such activities are a serious crime. Nancy Pelosi advocated for a coup during Trumps first term. We can’t be a sound nation when Dems advocate for insurrection and obstruction of federal law
ReplyDeletePelosi Pressed Pentagon on Safeguards to Prevent Trump From Ordering Military Action
ReplyDeleteBut short of the cabinet invoking the 25th Amendment or impeaching and convicting the president, it would be unconstitutional to defy legal orders from the commander in chief, experts note.
Even the New York times rejected pelosi attempt at insurrection.
Mad Dog,
ReplyDeleteAgreed. It is rich that those who have never served are so quick to advocate for doing away with those that did. Clearly the Democratic congress members in that video are not only alarmed by boats being blown up in the Caribbean, they undoubtedly fear something bad happening stateside. We mustn’t forget in Trump’s first term he wondered if protesters could be shot in the legs. (MAGA likely thinks it was quite considerate of him to only want to go for the legs.) These veterans figured they better be proactive, given Trump 2.0 is even crazier than that—and that’s saying a lot..
Maud
Ms. Maud,
ReplyDeleteYes, the shoot them in the legs was really fun. Apparently, Mr. Trump has not spent much time on the shooting range, as hitting moving targets in the legs, or even stationary targets, from a safe distance is not at all easy. This is one reason police are taught to aim for the center of the mass--if you need to shoot it is to protect your own life, not to teach the shootee a lesson. It was the next best suggestion to his suggestion we treat COVID by injecting bleach intravenously. Hey, JUST ASKING.
