TAPA # 213 FREEDOM!!!
Well, what did I tell you Old Bone Spurs would say? I told you so. We are long past stipulating that Trump is a liar, a grifter, a convicted felon, and, in my view, a leader whose primary concern is himself. Last night’s Orwellian speech reinforced a familiar principle: Don’t believe what you see or read,…

TAPA # 212 A REICHSTAG MOMENT???
Tonight, Old Bone Spurs, a documented liar and grifter, will likely once again claim that the 2020 election was rigged. Let’s remember what that election actually was: Given all of this documented evidence, Trump’s narrative is reminiscent of Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone: “This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call……

TAPA 207 TO PILLAGE
To PILLAGE means: “to rob, loot, or steal goods from a place”.. The attached article is a long read, but it attempts to connect the dots how Trump is pillaging America while enriching himself and his family. Ordinary Americans are paying the price while the Trump family’s wealth grows. Middle-class Americans will be bearing the cost of these…

TACO # 203 “WHERE ARE THE FLOWERS”?
Last week, in compliance with a court order that ruled placing Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center was illegal and required it to be removed by Friday, Trump’s people finally complied, after much haranguing. But they complied in a manner perfectly illustrative of Trump’s immature, self-aggrandizing, and often ludicrous behavior: they erected a tarp so…

TAPA # 202 TRUMPSTITUTION
The origin of the word prostitute is the Latin prostituere, meaning “to put forth publicly” or “to offer something of value for sale in a manner considered degrading or dishonorable.” In ancient Rome, the term evolved to mean offering one’s body, what many regard as sacred, for sale. A person who did so became a prostitute, and the…

TAPA # 201 ENDANGERED CHILDREN
Attached is Thomas Friedman’s piece, a long read but one well worth reading, especially when you consider his final statement: “Every day we tolerate such behavior we endanger our children’s future”. While a majority of Americans struggle to pay their bills, are going into debt on their credit cards, farmers losing farms and/or crops, service members…

TELLING IT LIKE IT IS
Rep. Jared Huffman of California tells it like it is. Tried to transfer the video but it seemed to be blocked? So here is the transcript of his speech to the House Committee. I think it is pertinent to today’s continued trail of deception, deceit and grift Trump is traveling down. “and if we’re real,…

TAPA #200 OCCUM’S TEXAS RAZOR
Texas remains Republican-leaning overall, but Democrats make up a very large minority of the state and dominate several major urban counties including Harris (Houston), Dallas and Travis (Austin), along with increasingly competitive suburban regions. Trump’s endorsement of Paxton for the U.S. Senate was not surprising. Birds of a feather, as they say. Trump is a…

THE COLBERT WAY
Stephen Colbert’s last show was such a nuanced display of integrity, intelligence, mature comedy, and honest satire. As Bruce Springsteen said, “This is the first show ever canceled because a president couldn’t take a joke and … the owners of CBS are simply kissing the fat ass.” Colbert did not get emotional or “act out.”…

PATSY!!!
All I can think of when I listen to Republicans, or read newspaper reports about Trump’s newest scam flowing dollars into his pocket, or into the pockets of people he believes will help funnel even more money into his pocket, is the word “patsy.” That is what many Republican MAGAs have become. Trump began his…
