This is a CRIME, Not a Policy [1]

Have you checked your Congressional Representative’s website lately? “404 – File Not Found.” The website is there but it is not functioning as in “contact.” Perhaps, someone has inadvertently disconnected it for some strange reason or maybe it just broke down, who can say? But it says something! The word is out, NO MORE REPUBLICAN TOWN HALLS! Bad optics man. The Republicans fear some of you don’t like their policies. If you must, then Tele town halls where you can delete the unruly masses to present an artificial picture of happy children.

To the proselytites and sharpies these are their glory days. They don’t care if you are unhappy. They don’t care in the slightest. This is about overthrowing the old order and installing the new reality. Even to believers on Capitol hill there is a slight nervousness as they themselves and don’t fully understand what is coming down the pike. But are willing to follow the crowd too fearful to object but nervous about just going along. They stand to profit personally by just going along. But the future is unknowable, and this thing could go sideways. Kind of like January 6th in slow motion.

I don’t know if I’m lucky or unlucky. My lifelong addiction to studying history has found me. It’s sort of like seeing the movie after reading the book. Knowing what is about to come next, so when I see Nazi Fascist ideology in my everyday life, it rings like a bell!

In Poland in 1939. Achtung! Achtung! All Jews must register with the police within ten days or face criminal charges. They are required to give their address and ages of all Jews in the household. Failure to register with the Reich will result in strict criminal penalties.

In Washington 2025, the King under the Department of Cruelty demands all migrants register their whereabouts. How many in the household? Failure to report will result in harsh criminal penalties! The purpose of the decree is very simple. The migrant is automatically criminalized. Which one’s are the criminals? ALL OF THEM! They didn’t turn themselves in for deportation like they were told, and that’s against the law! Only the yellow stars are missing, but it’s still early.

The King decrees “Gold Card” citizenship. Known on Capitol hill as “The Criminals and Corrupt Citizenship act.” Why should Dubai suck up all rich criminals? Why did Bebe Rebozo, Richard Nixon’s best friend, have to hide like a criminal in Cuba? Just because the law was after him. Why should Fidel or Edie Amin get all that money? Under Fascism, Jeffery Epstein wouldn’t need that Island. If you have enough money, you can buy your way through the revolving door, in or out.

The King says, they are “job creators” chances are they’re international drug kingpins, fraudsters or third world War Lords. Maybe even that Nigerian prince, who sent you all those emails promising you riches, The type of candidate who requires special consideration. The type of migrant who would otherwise be laughed out the front door. What could go wrong with an immigration system operating on a balance sheet?

Did you know the Russians have walked out on the peace talks? Maybe it had something to do with the King’s double dealing and stabbing the Russians in the back. The Administration says it is harder than they expected. That happens sometimes when you try to force crooked deals on folks. Sorry Russia, but 500 Billion dollars in Ukraine’s natural resources is just too good a deal to pass up. Unless of course, you want to make a better offer? We could switch sides again.

A funny thing happened on my way to the asylum. It seems that since December, foreign governments are de-dollarizing. They are selling off their treasury notes and not buying as much of the new ones. What makes Treasury notes so attractive is their uber stability. And with President Whack a doodle in office, that stability comes into question. The world does not have to buy our debt. And if the world won’t buy it at 7% maybe they’ll buy it at 9% or 12%. I wonder if the King understands?

Adolph Hitler gave the unions the Labor Day holiday they had been asking for. Then Hitler outlawed the unions. Then Hitler did away with civil rights and civil liberties and public comment. Once given the power Hitler dispensed with the Reichstag and courts. Courts are for other people.

What is going on here is the greatest crime in all of American history! A crime which will be written about and studied for decades to come or not. They are starting to freak out. They didn’t expect this kind of push back! Keep it up! And louder too! Let them know in no uncertain terms, if your life is ruined or your grandmother is harmed through defunding you’re coming for their jobs.

I’m anxiously awaiting the sales numbers on Elon’s Swasticar. I just can’t conceive of someone buying a Tesla right now. How clueless would you have to be to drive a Tesla? “I don’t know? Some random stranger just walked up and punched me in the mouth.” But good news, Elon’s interest payments are over a billion dollars a month. Elon’s is not as invulnerable as he pretends to be.

The King should be arrested and Elon too. Is Elba available or Alcatraz? Extraordinary times require extraordinary actions. No one voted to dismantle the government. No one voted for concentration camps. No one voted to close hospitals, starve children or kill the elderly. Millions of Americans have had their lives and futures thrown into the air. That is a CRIME, not a policy!

State and local governments warn, Higher taxes are on the way. Lousy public education. Lousy streets and infrastructure. Lousy healthcare and lousy taxes. But the billionaires are happy! Their plan is to let the water out of the pool and impose a new kind of America. Where money talks and Bullshit walks. Where you only get the American freedom, education or healthcare you can afford.

Funny thing about history. No one ever talks about just how effective the French Revolution really was. How the French people decided one day to lop off the heads of the top 1% of society. How the 1% suddenly became much easier to deal with and haven’t bothered the French people ever again, in over two hundred years.

“To stand up for truth is nothing. For truth, you must sit in jail.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
