Joel Osteen is the Most Hated Man in America (After Donald Trump)

The Prosperity Gospel is a damnable heresy custom-made for materialistic Americans, it`s the belief that God will bless you financially and with good health as long as you donate to Him, and televangelists are the instruments that the Almighty uses to collect his tithes and offerings.

Prosperity theology pays tremendous dividends to the televangelists and pastors of megachurches who unselfishly collect millions in the name of Jesus.

Not so much for the elderly who live on fixed incomes, residents of trailer parks and other poor folk who support these predatory Gospel television ministries. Sending a check to a Benny Hinn, Creflo Dollar or a Joel Osteen is like buying a lottery ticket, maybe they will get lucky and God will reward them with a BMW, a split-level home and a designer wardrobe.

Joel Osteen is one of the most successful prosperity hucksters, the Good Lord has rewarded him with a multi-million dollar mansion, a fleet of luxury cars, Lear jets, and a wardrobe fit for a pimp or a wealthy evangelist.

Osteen`s church building, the Lakewood Church campus, is an arena where the Houston Rockets used to play, and it`s located in Houston, Texas.

When Houston was inundated with a flood of biblical proportions the Lakewood Church building, which seats 17,000, would have made the perfect shelter from the storm.

But Osteen didn`t open his church to the suddenly homeless residents of Houston, after all the wet and dirty victims of the flood would have ruined the carpet and stained the cushioned pews.

Although the demographics of Osteen`s viewing audience are the poor and disenfranchised, most of his congregation is made up of the affluent and well-to-do, and they wouldn`t appreciate sharing their magnificent cathedral with riff-raff.

Osteen claimed that Lakewood Church was inaccessible due to flooding and encouraged desperate Houstonians to seek shelter elsewhere.

This blatant lie is as phony as the Gospel that he preaches, not a puddle of flood water seeped into his church. The Lakewood property is a giant complex with many buildings and parking lots, the main arena was untouched by the flood, and the surrounding streets weren`t flooded. There may have been a building or parking lot that had a couple of inches of water, but the Lakewood Church was accessible.

When Hurricane Harvey hit Osteen wasn`t at Lakewood Church flashing his megawatt smile and inviting the poor and the wretched into his sanctuary, he only reversed course when he was pilloried on social media.

Shame on you Joel Osteen, you are a wolf in sheep`s clothing, a con man, an embarrassment to Houston, and the most hated man in America.

Donald Trump Can’t Tell Difference Between Two Female Reporters

“Donald Trump managed to mix up two female reporters at a press conference on Monday, forcing the Finnish president Sauli Niinisto to explain that the women were not actually the same person.

As the leaders took questions from the press pool, Mr Niinisto called on a reporter.

`Again?` Mr Trump asked the Finnish president, mistakenly believing he had called on a reporter who had already asked a question. `You`re going to give her the same one?`

`No, she is not the same lady,` Mr Niinisto replied, to the amusement of the two journalists.”

Independent

There are three possible explanations for Trump`s embarrassing gaffe:

Trump`s hatred of media

The president hates the media with a passion, he thinks the press has a vendetta against him. He sees the press as a single entity, he doesn`t see reporters as individual human beings just doing their job. It`s not surprising he couldn`t distinguish one reporter from another.

Trump`s sexism

Both reporters were young, blond and attractive, in Trump`s eyes they were just blond bimbos, indistinguishable from one another.

If Trump visits a brothel on a monthly basis, and if he is serviced by blond prostitutes who look nothing like each other on each visit, he would probably complain: You have a bunch of girls in this here fine establishment, why do I always get the same broad?

Trump`s dementia

The septuagenarian probably can`t tell his adult diapers from his KKK cap, who can blame him if all the reporters look the same to him?

The only reporters that Trump remembers are the ones who compliment him, and all those sycophant morons work for Fox News.

In a Perfect World Donald Trump Would be Impeached and Hillary Clinton Would be Run Over by a Mack Truck

Every time Hillary Clinton opens her mouth she reminds us that as bad as things are under Donald Trump, and make no mistake about it our country is going straight to hell, things would have been even worse with Hillary at the helm.

Trump may be a buffoon, a narcissist and a racist, but at least he`s sometimes funny — there isn`t a funny bone in Hillary`s body.

In her forthcoming memoir “What Happened,” Hillary writes that when Donald Trump wandered up behind her during the second debate, in St. Louis, she thought, “This is not OK. . . . Two days before, the world heard him brag about groping women. Now we were on a small stage and no matter where I walked, he followed me closely, staring at me, making faces.”

There isn`t a snowball`s chance in hell that the lecherous Trump would have touched the frigid old hag with a ten-foot pole, and we all know that the short-fingered vulgarian doesn`t have a ten-foot pole.

Clinton continues with her self-serving narrative “It was incredibly uncomfortable. He was literally breathing down my neck. My skin crawled. It was one of those moments where you wish you could hit pause and ask everyone watching, well, what would you do? Do you stay calm, keep smiling and carry on as if he weren`t repeatedly invading your space? Or do you turn, look him in the eye and say loudly and clearly, `Back up you creep, get away from me. I know you love to intimidate women but you can`t intimidate me, so back up.`”

Bitch please! You didn`t lose because the sexist Trump was trying to intimidate you, you lost because you are the most self-loathing and socially-awkward butch lesbian in the world.

Let me digress and explain that I`ve been publicly advocating for gay and lesbian rights for twenty years. I love me some lesbians, it`s humorless lesbians who are too cowardly to come out of the closet that I can`t stand.

When Trump got too close for comfort she should have let loose with one of her patented toxic farts, believe me Trump would have scampered away.

What a horrible world we live in, I wish Trump was impeached and I wish Hillary was run over by a Mack truck.

Trans Woman Curses Out Caitlyn Jenner for Supporting Donald Trump

“Caitlyn Jenner was ambushed by a trans woman over her support of Donald Trump.

The reality star, 67 was attending the Trans Chorus of Los Angeles on Saturday night when she was confronted by Ashlee Marie Preston.

The activist and journalist found it `ridiculous` that Caitlyn – a trans woman herself – allegedly continues to support Trump after he authorized banning trans people from serving in the military on Friday.

`You`re a f**king fraud and a fake,` said Preston.”

Daily Mail

Ashlee Marie Preston is spot on, the celeb formerly known as Bruce Jenner is a fake and a fraud in every sense of the word.

Denizens of Hollywood value fame about every other commodity, be it a good reputation, moral integrity or honesty. Bruce Jenner`s ex-wife emasculated him in real life and in their reality show, the only way that Bruce could reclaim his manhood and cred as a celeb was by becoming a woman.

It`s not easy grabbing the spotlight in a dysfunctional family where releasing a sex tape is a rite of passage, but Bruce managed to be born again as a celeb by becoming a woman. Bruce is a fake transgender and a fake woman, his penis may be shriveled and flaccid due to the hormones he`s taking, but it`s evidence he`s still a man.

Jenner deserved to be cussed out, as someone who claims to be transgender how can he possibly support a bastard who banned transgender people from serving in the military. Any transgender person who supports Trump should be cussed out.

I`m a Latino and if I supported Trump, I would expect to be abused by my own community. How can any Latino or Latina support a president who has demonstrated such animosity toward Mexican immigrants and Mexican-Americans? Any Hispanic person who supports Trump should be cussed out.

I`m shocked whenever I see a black person support Trump, how can any black person support a president with a lily-white administration, the only African-American in a prominent role in the White House is Uncle Tom Ben Carson. Any black person who supports Trump should be cussed out.

Any American, regardless of ethnicity, who supports a Nazi-sympathizing president should be cussed out.

Fuc* Bruce Jenner and Fuc* Donald Trump!

Who’s More Evil, Donald Trump the Racist Clown or Pennywise the Clown?

“Stephen King`s Twitter war with Donald Trump isn`t over yet.

After being blocked on Twitter by Trump in June, the famous horror writer got revenge on the President Thursday evening by declaring that he`d be returning the favor – by blocking Trump from seeing the upcoming film `IT` and television series `Mr. Mercedes,` both based on works by King.

`Donald Trump blocked me on Twitter. I am hereby blocking him from seeing IT or MR. MERCEDES. No clowns for you, Donald. Go float yourself,` King tweeted.”

BDN MAINE

Stephen King has created many horrifying characters, like Pennywise the Clown, that haunt us in our nightmares, but even the master of horror couldn`t conceive of an abomination like Donald Trump the President of the United States.

King has been fighting the evil clown on Twitter, it`s no surprise that Trump blocked the acclaimed writer on Twitter.

King is now returning the favor, by blocking the orange clown from seeing the upcoming film “IT” and the television series “MR. MERCEDES,” both based on novels by the famous novelist.

Of course King can`t really block the perverse clown from seeing the productions based on his works, but wouldn`t it be great if we could block any image or article about Trump from social media, newspapers, and TV and radio? Surely there`s an app for that!

Living in a Trump-free world would be as close to paradise as we can get this side of death, unfortunately we need to hear about Trump`s daily outrages and scandals. We need to be outraged, so that we will be compelled to fight the evil clown until he`s banished from our great country.

Donald Trump Used Hurricane Harvey as Cover to Pardon Joe Arpaio

Natural disasters bring to light the worst of Mother Nature and the best of human beings, the courage and determination of the victims and first responders remind us of the indomitability of the human spirit.

Natural disasters also reveal the character of the President of the United States. President George Bush was on vacation when Hurricane Katrina made landfall, and as the nation watched the devastation in horror, the president remained on vacation, he didn`t return back to the White House until a couple of days later.

On his way back, Bush had Air Force One fly over part of the devastated area and he glimpsed the wreckage from the plane. The photo of Bush looking out the window of his presidential plane became one of the defining images of his tenure.

A picture speaks a thousand words, and that photograph spoke of the president`s detachment from the concerns of everyday people. Since most of the victims in the hardest-hit areas were African-Americans it also spoke of his insensitivity towards people of color. In Kanye`s immortal words, “Bush doesn`t care about black people.”

The Bush presidency never recovered from Hurricane Katrina, and President Donald Trump failed to learn from Bush`s bungling of the natural disaster.

Hours before Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Texas, Donald Trump left the White House for a weekend getaway in Camp David.

Trump used Hurricane Harvey as a cover for announcing controversial measures, the pardon of racist Sheriff Joe Arpaio and the signing of a memo which bans transgender individuals from newly enlisting in the military.

Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans in 2005 during Bush`s second term, and the Iraq war had already severely weekend him. Hurricane Harvey struck Texas only seven months into Trump`s administration, but his countless scandals and mistakes have already crippled his administration.

Trump is ill-equipped to lead our nation during the best of times, God help us when he`s at the helm during a natural disaster or a terrorist attack.

For God`s sake, we must get rid of the bastard, one way or another, as soon as possible.

Donald Trump is a Pig and His Supporters are Piglets

Donald Trump the President of the United States hasn`t changed an iota from Donald Trump the candidate, he`s as much of a racist buffoon as he was on that day when he descended from the elevator at Trump Tower to deliver his racist presidential announcement speech.

A day after he read a presidential speech of a TelePrompTer, devoid of any histrionics and buffoonery, committing to send more young men and women to fight in the endless and pointless Afghanistan war, he reverted to form.

At a campaign rally in Phoenix, Trump wasn`t chained to a TelePrompTer, and he delivered his greatest hits from the campaign trail, railing against the media and his many enemies.

Trump`s tone and specifics changes from speech to speech, depending on the crowd and the prevailing news of the day, but the subject of his speech never changes, it`s always about himself.

It`s always about how the media is attacking him, and about how he doesn`t get the credit he deserves. Trump is a billionaire who had every opportunity to succeed handed to him on a silver platter, but spends every day throwing tantrums and acting like a victim. Sad!

Trump devoted most of his Phoenix rant relitigating his bungled response to Charlottesville. He theatrically pulled his previous remarks about Charlottesville from his front pocket, and read them verbatim, but omitted the words that caused all the controversy. The audience didn`t hear him read the parts about how “many sides” were to blame, or that there were “fine people” on both sides.

Trump revised history, exaggerated the size of crowd, and fed the pigs a steady diet of red meat. I will not apologize for calling Trump supporters “pigs,” they may have been excused for supporting him during his presidential run, but for six months they have witnessed him destroy our country and our democratic ideals, and yet they still enthusiastically support him. I should be commended for calling them “pigs” instead of one of the expletives favored by their Messiah.

I`ve seen enough to deliver my verdict: Donald Trump is a narcissist, a buffoon and a racist, and as a newspaper columnist and blogger I will devote my talents, meager as they may be, convincing my readers that he should be impeached.

How about you, will you stand on the right side of history?

German Magazine Portrays Donald Trump Giving Nazi Salute

“A German magazine has portrayed President Donald Trump giving a Nazi salute on its latest front page.

Stern magazine mocked up the image of Trump performing the gesture while draped in the American flag for the cover of its Aug. 24 issue.

The magazine`s cover is the latest in a line of provocative anti-Trump front pages to appear since the president failed to fully condemn this month`s violent white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.”

Huffington Post

If anyone can recognize the dangers of Nazi philosophy taking root in a democracy it`s the Germans, and they are appalled at Donald Trump`s embrace of White Nationalism.

Americans are aware that Trump`s toxic racism is doing incalculable harm to our democracy, but I don`t think most of us realize how much harm he`s doing to America`s reputation and standing in the world.

Stern`s cover is spot on, Trump drapes himself in patriotism and American supremacy while winking at the violent antics of White Nationalists. Nazi ideology is the antithesis of democracy, and it`s incumbent on the president to denounce it in no uncertain terms.

If America is to survive as a democracy we must hate Nazism as much as the Germans, and that means impeaching our racist president.

Who Was the ‘Blacks for Trump’ Guy Standing Behind Trump at his Phoenix Rally?

During Donald Trump`s unhinged rally in Phoenix on Tuesday night, two thoughts popped into my mind that kept my awake all night long.

Question 1: Why in the name of God is Trump still holding campaign rallies? Campaign rallies are by their very nature divisive and partisan events, a candidate attempts to solidify his base by attacking his opponent.

Somebody needs to remind Trump that he won the election and he`s no longer a presidential candidate, but the President of the United States. With every speech that he delivers, and every press conference that he holds, he should be seeking to unify the country.

Question 2: Who in the name of God was that black guy strategically placed behind the president, holding a sign proclaiming “BLACKS FOR TRUMP.” As a Latino I`d rather walk downtown buck naked wearing a cowboy hat and high heels, than stand behind Trump when he`s delivering a speech. Why would any self-respecting black man attend a Trump rally?

A black man would have to be stark raving mad in order to support our Nazi-sympathizing president. It shouldn`t come as any surprise that the black dude standing behind Trump is crazier than a shi*house rat. According to his website he believes that the “real KKK slave masters” are Cherokee Indians and that ISIS and Hillary Clinton are plotting a race war to kill all black and white women in America. Like I said, homeboy is nuttier than a fruitcake.

In the six months that Trump`s been in office he`s clearly demonstrated that he`s morally, intellectually and temperamentally unfit to be president. Anybody, not just religious and ethnic minorities, would have to be freaking nuts to support him.

Impeach the racist bastard!

Billy Joel Dons Star of David in Protest of Donald Trump

“Billy Joel may wear his heart on his sleeve in his songs, but Monday night he wore the Star of David to make a statement.

Joel, whose parents are Jewish, wore the symbolic yellow stars on the front and back of his jacket while performing at Madison Square Garden in New York City.”

CNN

This is an obvious reaction to Donald Trump`s deeply offensive and troubling remarks in the aftermath of the White Nationalists` rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Billy Joel normally eschews politics, but when the President of the United States is a Nazi sympathizer, all of us, artists, celebrities, politicians, writers, religious leaders and regular folks must take a stand.

Trump has made racist statements against virtually every minority: Muslims, immigrants, African-Americans, Mexicans, and Mexican-Americans.

The majority of Americans believe in racial equality and harmony, and we must repudiate the hatred and bigotry embodied by Trump.

Gary Cohn, Donald Trump`s top economic adviser, is said to be infuriated over Trump`s press conference in which the president couldn`t bring himself to denounce Nazis and White Supremacists in no uncertain terms.

Cohn was seething as he stood behind Trump while he was playing footsie with racists, but the moral coward hasn`t uttered a single word in protest.

If Cohn ever appears in a press conference with Trump again, at least he should wear a Star of David in case the president once again makes sympathetic statements about White Nationalists.

Kudos to Billy Joel, a gentleman, scholar and terrific rock and roller. When Trump is impeached I will blast his music all day long.

Donald Trump Stared at Eclipse Without Proper Eyewear! Why Didn’t God Blind Him?

“As President Trump and first lady Melania Trump got in on Monday`s eclipse mania, the president took a peek at the sun without the proper eyewear.

Accompanied by son Barron Trump, the pair arrived on the balcony at 2:38 p.m, per pool reports. When asked how the view was, the president gave a thumb`s up.

At one point, the president appeared to glance up at one point sans eclipse glasses, leading to an aide shouting, `Don`t look,` per pool reports. Looking at the eclipse without the proper eyewear can lead to eye damage.

At 2:41 p.m., a minute before peak eclipse at the White House at about 81%, the president put on a pair of glasses and stood next to the first lady.”

USA TODAY

I`m a normal human being, and I`ve never physically hurt anyone in my life, but like most Americans I have fantasies of torturing Donald Trump until he agrees to resign.

When I saw the photographs of the degenerate billionaire staring at the eclipse without proper eyewear, I grumbled to myself: Dear God, why didn`t you blind the bastard?

The Almighty isn`t going to smite the buffoon with a lightning bolt, or blind him, or kill him in a painful way that will bring joy to billions.

It`s up to citizens to get rid of the abomination by any legal means. It`s incumbent upon us to call our senators and congressmen, and demand that they impeach Trump or remove him from power via the 25th amendment.

The Great American Total Solar Eclipse and Donald Trump’s Moral Darkness

The “Great American Total Solar Eclipse” is anticipated with awe and excitement by most Americans, but a few fundamentalist Christians see it as a divine warning of the impending apocalypse.

These are the same evangelicals who wet their pants in awe and excitement over the Donald Trump administration that has blocked the advancement of civil rights and embraces White Nationalists.

I can`t wait for the solar eclipse, and if I get scared or worried when a hot summer day turns into night this afternoon, I can relax knowing that this phenomenon will last only a couple of minutes.

Unfortunately, the Trump moral darkness will last for four or eight more years, unless we battle the forces of darkness and remove the racist buffoon from power by any means within the law.

Liberty University Grads Protest Jerry Falwell Jr.’s Sickening Support of Donald Trump

In the wake of President Donald Trump`s stunning Charlottesville remarks in which he embraced White Nationalists every section of our society has repudiated his blatant racism.

President Trump`s Entire Arts and Humanities Council quit.

Trump disbanded his Manufacturing Council & Strategy & Policy Forum after a rash of defections by business leaders.

The following prominent Republican leaders have denounced Trump by name: Sen. John McCain, Sen. Marco Rubio, Sen. Jeff Flake, Rep. Ed Royce, Rep. Leonard Lance, Former President Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney …

Military Joint Chiefs denounced Charlottesville racism.

Artists, business leaders, the military brass, and Republican leaders have criticized Trump`s bigotry in no uncertain terms.

Only evangelical leaders, who you`d think would be the first ones to condemn hatred, have remained silent.

Only one religious leader has stepped down from Donald Trump`s evangelical advisory board. Megachurch pastor A.R Bernard announced on Twitter Friday that “it became obvious that there was a deepening conflict in values between myself and the administration.”

In January 2016, Jerry Falwell Jr. became one of the earliest evangelical leaders to endorse the degenerate billionaire candidate, and he has remained steadfast in support of Trump through every scandal, every intemperate tweet and every contentious press conference.

After Trump`s outrageous, controversial and racist remarks about the Charlottesville White Nationalists` protest this is what Falwell tweeted:

Finally a leader in WH. Jobs returning, N Korea backing down, bold truthful stmt about #charlottesville tragedy. So proud of @realdonaldtrump

We expect our religious leaders to condemn racism and other moral diseases, and to urge their followers and indeed the entire nation to form a more perfect union.

Jerry Falwell Jr. may be a moral coward, but I take heart in the fact that a group of Liberty University (LU) alumni has condemned him for his continued alignment with Trump. Some LU graduates have vowed to return their diplomas to register their disapproval.

I urge my evangelical friends to join the rest of society in condemning hate speech, racism and bigotry.

Magazine Covers Depict Donald Trump’s Passion for KKK

“The New Yorker, Time and Economist magazines inevitably wanted to feature Donald Trump`s white supremacy speech on their covers. Then the challenge was to find the perfect image.”

The Daily Beast

I so much despise the Trump administration that if I were the publisher of one of these distinguished publications I would opt for something scatological to capture the essence of our president: A piece of turd floating in a toilet bowl or a fart emanating for Trump`s sphincter-like mouth. Fortunately for the public, I don`t get to decide what image goes on the cover of these magazines.

But seriously, nothing captures the spirit of the Trump administration quite like a dunce cap or a KKK hood. The sheer stupidity and blatant racism that spews from the White House demands such provocative magazine covers that will motivate people to fight Trump until he resigns or is impeached.

The New York tabloids are notorious for their sometimes risqué and always controversial covers, and you would expect them to depict Trump as a Klansman or Hitler.

But Time magazine, the Economist and The New Yorker are influential and respected publications that don`t traffic in gratuitous controversy.

It`s not just the intelligentsia as illustrated by these magazines that is linking Trump to White Nationalism, millions of thinking Americans and billions of concerned citizens in the world think that Trump is a racist.

Watch Vest-Wearing Chickens Cross Road Safely

“A bed and breakfast in Scotland fitted a group of chickens with high-visibility vests to help them cross a local road.

Glenshieling House shared video Friday of a pair of chickens wearing the bright pink vests as they strolled across the rainy street.

Louise Lennox, owner of the Perthsire bed and breakfast, told STV she has 14 hens and a few have a tendency to wander off the property.

Lennox hopes the vests will help drivers spot the chickens and encourage them to slow down.”

UPI

The existential question “why did the chicken cross the road?” will forever remain a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma, but the owner of a bed and breakfast has outfitted her chickens with bright pink vests so that they will survive the perilous crossing of the road by her property.

Louise Lennox, owner of the Perthsire bed and breakfast, printed the phrase “Glenshieling House Girl” on the vests to advertise her business. Methinks she cares more about advertising her business than she does about the welfare of her chickens.

What say you? Is Lennox an animal rights hero or is she an animal abuser who put on vests on her chickens that hinders their ability to fly and keeps them unbearably hot on summer days?

Donald Trump Tweets General Pershing Pig’s Blood Myth

On Thursday a radical Islamic terrorist plowed a rental van into a popular pedestrian area teeming with tourists in Barcelona, killing 14 people and injuring at least 100 more.

Trump claimed that he didn`t immediately condemn the white supremacist domestic terrorists who murdered a woman in Charlottesville last weekend, because all the facts weren`t in yet.

Within an hour of the Barcelona attack, our national embarrassment of a president, Donald Trump posted this inflammatory tweet:

Study what General Pershing of the United States did to terrorists when caught. There was no more Radical Islamic Terror for 35 years!

Trump was referring to the myth (fake news) that General John Pershing dipped bullets in pigs` blood before ordering his soldiers to execute Muslim insurgents following the Philippine-American War in order to deter the insurgency campaign.

This myth has been debunked by historians, Snopes.Com and military leaders outraged at this lie that tarnishes the reputation of Gen. Pershing.

But let`s say it`s true, Trump is condoning a grievous war crime. To summarily execute war prisoners is an outrage, and keep in mind that the Muslim soldiers fighting Pershing weren`t terrorists, they were freedom fighters battling a colonial power that had invaded their nation.

Trump`s intemperate and false tweet is going to inflame tensions throughout the Muslim world, putting American tourists, diplomats and military personnel in danger.

Once again Trump has demonstrated that he doesn`t have the wisdom and moral authority to be President of the United States. Impeach the bastard!

Most cities have subsidized bus service for seniors and the disabled community, certainly a city in Florida that`s infested with old folks should have such a free service!

A limousine service should step in and provide the old woman with free rides for life, what the hell she`s 103-freaking-years-old, she`s going to croak any day.

White House Staff Should Resign En Masse in Protest of Donald Trump’s Racism

President Donald Trump`s press conference at Trump Tower in New York City on Tuesday afternoon quickly went off the rails after reporters questioned his response to the violence at the `Unite the Right` white-nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, on Saturday, which left one counterprotester dead and many others injured.

Trump doubled down on his assertion that the violence was caused by `bad actors` on both sides. He equated what he called `the alt-left”`with the `alt-right` at the rally and said that not all those participating were neo-Nazis or white supremacists.

Trump`s new chief of staff, John Kelly, who was brought in to help discipline the White House, looked especially displeased with how the press conference panned out.”

AOL

A press conference in which President Donald Trump was supposed to talk about his executive order on infrastructure quickly went off the rails when Trump took back his delayed denunciation of white nationalists and neo-Nazi groups and embraced them with open arms.

Trump wasn`t even scheduled to field any questions, he was supposed to deliver his remarks on infrastructure and then depart, leaving his staff who were standing behind him to answer any questions.

But when a reporter shouted a question about Charlottesville it ignited Trump`s impromptu 15 minute justification of White Nationalism. Trump didn`t use dog whistles to subtly indicate his support of racists, he used the megaphone of his bully pulpit to clearly show that he supports the alt-right movement.

Trump`s new chief of staff John Kelly was one of the White House personnel who were standing behind Trump, by their presence they were endorsing his blatant racism.

It was clear that Kelly was mortified by Trump`s remarks, it`s incumbent upon him to resign to register his disapproval and disgust at his boss`s racism.

I have no respect for Kelly or any other administration official who doesn`t resign in protest, if they remain on Trump`s staff they are complicit in his racism and bigotry.

This shouldn`t be a partisan issue, this is bigger than political parties, it`s about the soul of our nation. Republicans must publicly break with the president, and put our democracy above their careers and party.

I love my cats, Tico and Ebony, and I cater to their every whim. I know they love playing with boxes, and whenever I buy anything that`s packaged in a box I save it for their entertainment and amusement.

But Chris Poole really takes the cake when it comes to pampering his kitties, he constructed an elaborate maze of cardboard boxes for his furry friends. The maze covered the entire living room floor. I may dedicate a corner of my living room for my pets` boxes and toys, but this dude really went overboard.

Whenever I buy toys or treats for my felines, and I wonder if I`m coddling them too much, I will play this video to remind myself that my furry friends haven`t completely taken over my life yet.

Racist Donald Trump is Considering Pardoning Racist Sheriff Joe Arpaio

“President Donald Trump told Fox News he is seriously considering issuing a pardon for former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, who was convicted last month of criminal contempt for ignoring a judge`s order to stop detaining people because he merely suspected them of being undocumented immigrants.

Trump told the news outlet during a conversation in Bedminster, New Jersey, that the pardon could come quickly,

`I might do it right away, maybe early this week. I am seriously thinking about it,` Trump said, according to Fox News. He said Arpaio was a `great American patriot` who had `done a lot in the fight against illegal immigration.`”

Chicago Tribune

Donald Trump was condemned from all quarters for failing to respond forcefully to Saturday`s White Supremacist violence in Charlottesville, in which a woman was killed when a man crashed his car into a group of counter-protesters.

Finally on Monday, reading from a teleprompter, Trump called out the perpetrators of the violence by name: KKK, neo-Nazis, and white supremacists.

When Trump speaks off-the-cuff his syntax may be mangled, but he speaks from his heart and he tells the truth as he perceives it, but when he reads prepared remarks that his aides have written for him, he looks like a child who`s forced to read a passage of Scripture at Sunday school.

If Trump really didn`t like White Supremacists he wouldn`t appoint them to prominent positions in his administration. If Trump really wanted to strike a blow against the alt-right fascists he would immediately fire Steve Bannon, Stephen Miller and Sebastian Gorka.

Trump is racist to the core and getting him to condemn racism and bigotry is like pulling teeth.

Trump`s confession that he`s seriously considering pardoning former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio is all the proof anyone with half a brain needs that he`s a freaking racist. Arpaio was convicted of criminal contempt for ignoring a judge`s order to stop detaining people because he merely suspected them of being undocumented immigrants.

Arpaio is one of the most loathed person is the Latino community, he and his deputies arrested thousands of Latinos for the crime of driving while brown.

Trump has declared war on gays and lesbians, immigrants, Latinos, Blacks, Muslims, and women and it`s incumbent upon all of us to fight this orange bastard until he`s removed from office.

Donald Trump Must be Relieved of the Powers of the Presidency Now!

“Donald Trump should be removed from office because he is mentally ill, a former Republican senator has said.

Gordon Humphrey, who represented New Hampshire between 1979 and 1990, said the US President is `sick of mind` and called for members of Congress to force him out.

In a letter sent to several New Hampshire Democrat senators and representatives, Mr Humphrey said Mr Trump is `dangerous`, `seriously sick` and could cause the deaths of millions of people.

Claiming the Commander-in-Chief is `sick of mind, impetuous, arrogant, belligerent and dangerous`, he added: `Donald Trump should be relieved of the powers of the presidency at the earliest date.`”

MSN News

After Germany was destroyed in the World War I and punished with severe economic sanctions, the Germans ignored Hitler`s madness, anti-Semitism and megalomania when he rose to power in the 30`s because he restored their national pride.

Trump`s supporters have turned a blind eye to his anti-Semitism, racism and megalomania because he has promised to make America Great Again.

History has harshly judged the Germans (rightfully so) for remaining silent when Hitler turned his murderous fury against unions, communists, gays and lesbians and the Jews.

History will indict Americans for tolerating the racism, bigotry and blind hatred of Donald Trump, Humphrey is spot on Trump must be relieved of the powers of the presidency at the earliest possible date.

At this point it`s not enough simply to condemn Trump`s racism and insanity, if you`re not doing everything possible to remove him from power, you are a part of the problem.

The fate of the world and the state of our democracy hangs in the balance, it`s incumbent on Congress to act now before Trump plunges the world into a nuclear winter and ignites a race war in America.

Donald Trump’s Wretched Statement on Charlottesville

A motley crew of racists (Neo-Nazis, KKK members, white supremacists and skinheads) numbering in the thousands descended on the sleepy college town of Charlottesville, Virginia and wreaked havoc.

The racist invaders came prepared for battle, they had helmets and shields and were swinging sticks and clubs and hurling rocks and bottles.

A small contingent of professional leftist counter-protesters eagerly joined the battle, matching the racists blow for blow. But the majority of counter-protesters were peacefully bearing witness against the invading army of bigots.

One person was killed and many others were injured when a vehicle deliberately sped into a group of counter-protesters.

At such a crucial juncture in history we look to our president to put things in perspective and on behalf of the public condemn racism and intolerance in no uncertain terms.

This is what the President of the United States said about the mayhem going in Charlottesville, the same person who never missed an opportunity to condemn former President Barack Obama for failing to name the evil of Islamic terrorism by its name:

“We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence, on many sides. On many sides. It`s been going on for a long time in our country. Not Donald Trump, not Barack Obama. This has been going on for a long, long time.”

Trump didn`t condemn the sickening outrage in the strongest possible terms, his generic comments didn`t call evil by its name: White supremacist violence, and intolerance.

Our execrable president has a history of making racist comments and playing footsie with unabashed racists, and once again he has failed our democracy miserably.

Let me state in no uncertain terms, Donald Trump is a racist, and we must expunge this cancer by any means necessary.

Newest Gay Icon: 4-Year-Old Prince George

“A conservative British politician has lashed out at an LGBT news site for declaring their country`s future king a `gay icon.`

PinkNews used a photo of Prince George clutching his face while visiting a German helicopter compound with his father alongside an article headlined `People think Prince George looks fabulous in this new photo.`

`Prince George has become a gay icon overnight – at least, that`s what some people – sorry, his subjects – are saying on Twitter` the article began before quoting a series of social media posts about his supposedly feminine gesture.”

New York Daily News

Some conservatives reacted in shock to the gay publication`s characterization of 4-year-old Prince George as a gay icon, they claim that the young royal is being sexualized.

Bullocks! Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Cher, Madonna and Lady Gaga are all prominent gay icons, and there isn`t a gay man alive who fantasizes about these women as sexual objects.

To brand Prince George as a gay icon isn`t sexualizing him, it simply means that he embodies the gay aesthetic.

I have a finely tuned gaydar, in fact I have never been wrong when I guessed a celeb`s sexual orientation (male and female) sometimes decades before they came out of the closet.

The photograph of Prince George clutching his slightly tilted to the side face while wearing blue shorts is the gayest thing I have seen in my lifetime. Take is from someone who is infallible when it comes to guessing people`s sexual orientation, there is a 99.99 percent chance that little George will grow up to be gayer than Liberace.

The PinkNews article was tongue-in-cheek, conservative bitches need to get a clue.

In a Sane World Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un Would Settle Things in a Death Match

I always feared that if nuclear war broke out it was because a hyper-nationalist Russian Federation overreached and invaded one of the Baltic States, drawing NATO into the conflict which escalates into a nuclear conflagration.

Another likely scenario: The People`s Republic of China invades the island republic of Taiwan, and the United States is forced to defend Taiwan under the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty and soon there are mushroom clouds over Beijing and Washington.

And there`s always the possibility that Israel`s archenemy Iran will miscalculate and attack Israel with swarms of missiles and the Jewish nation will have no choice but to respond with nuclear bombs.

But I never dreamed that a nuclear holocaust would be unleashed because the President of the United States and the Dear Leader of North Korea
engaged in a pissing contest, exchanging apocalyptic broadsides culminating in a nuclear winter.

American presidents from George H.W. Bush to Barack Obama didn`t overreact when Kim Jung-un`s grandfather and father hurled bombastic threats, they were confident as leader of the free world and didn`t see a need to match the inflammatory rhetoric of a 3rd world tinpot dictator.

It`s too bad a naked Donald Trump and Kim Jung-un can`t settle their differences in a death cage death match, and not endanger the lives of millions of people.

Kim Jong-un Sashays Over Donald Trump’s Red Line! Now What?

Rule Number 1 for surviving in cold and cruel world: Never (ever) make a threat that you aren`t able and willing to carry out.

If I yell at my next-door neighbor “If you blast your redneck music again tonight when I`m trying to sleep I`m going to knock the crap out of you,” and then he plays “All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight” at full volume on an endless loop that same night, and I`m too afraid to confront him, my fate has been sealed, I will never again enjoy a good night`s sleep.

Which brings us to the Blowhard-in-Chief Donald Trump, he warned Pyongyang it would face “power, the likes of which this world has never seen before” if the renegade state continued to threaten the United States.

Keep in mind that everybody knows how Kim Jong-un rolls, almost every day for the last six years he has issued an apocalyptic warning directed at America.

Sure enough within an hour after Trump delivered his fire and brimstone warning the pudgy dictator threatened to launch missiles at Guam. Lil` Kim is basically saying: Now What?

In 2013 President Barack Obama warned that if Syrian President Bashar Hafez al-Assad used chemical weapons against his own people it would trigger an American military response. But when the inevitable happened, Obama failed to keep his promise, and Trump has never let him forget it.

There is no quicker way for an American president to lose favor with the American public and credibility with the international community than by drawing a line in the sand, and then failing to act.

Kim Jong-un sashayed over Trump`s red line, and the only “fire and fury” is emanating from the Orange Buffoon`s arse as he farts away in frustration.

Nobody will believe Trump`s future warnings, he has succeeded in making the likelihood that the Korean crisis will go nuclear so much higher.
