Whaddaya Gonna Say?

Trump-bump

-Trump pushed Coke to release a NEW Coke made with cane sugar instead of corn syrup.  Still makes you fat and contributes to diabetes; for the same price?  Time will tell.
- Bring back the Washington Redskins, he says.  How much is it going to cost to change all those sports team's names again, plus re-install Confederate statues?
-  Why are we investigating President Obama years later, when the THEN GOP Intelligence Community determined Russia was meddling with the election, but not with the voting machines? (Gabbi needs a ratings boost.)
- WHY are we paying attention to the BEHEMOTH in the Oval Office?

Because it's hard not to.  He controls our fates, now that Congress and the Supreme Court have capitulated before such a beast.  I used to say, "Putin's got photos," of Donald indelicato to explain Trump's fawning of the dictator during his first term.  I still believe it - that's the real reason Putin's been given carte blanche to pummel Ukraine for the next, how long, 40 days?  And then he's going to miraculously QUIT THE FIGHT...right.  He'll get another 40 nights.

But apparently JEFFREY had photos, too - why else would Dumbo be throwing all his mud against the wall to distract from his screw-ups (and cause Congress to flee early for vacation)?

- Whatever happened to that lost uranium?
- How are rural communities going to get early-warning alerts once their Public Broadcasing stations shut down?
- How's that Gaza Humanitarian Foundation going?  If your head's been in the sand, it's something the US and Israel quickly cooked up to provide aid rather than using traditional methods, like the UN.  We're way past the point of justifying everything by saying Hamas (which I don't support, don't throw that back at me; I'm making a point).  Between May 27 and July 21, 766 Gazans were shot around GHF's distribution points.  Who's surprised, especially after Trump wanted to shoot protestors the first go-around; probably still does?
- Will I be able to afford fresh fruits and veggies after my SNAP benefit's cut (not that I really can now); or will I be back to 'lips and toes' hotdogs towards the end of the month?

Stock Market Scarf

Trump and his bullionnaire-led teams are doing a bang-up job decimating government programs with nary a thought to the consequences on real people, particularly the poor.  My grocery bill hasn't gone down and neither is there affordable housing available; but those issues don't matter to our Head of State, I use that term loosely.

But Crypto investors are making a killing, and we did get a new flagpole.  How about spending some of those funds withdrawn from Harvard to bankroll research for MEN TO CARRY THE BABY, instead of laying all those woes on Women?  It's already OK for them to stay home and improve their cooking skills.  I'll bet that would be popular with at least half the population; but the halls of government in every state are still overwhelmingly men.  Ladies, why do we continually vote for these machistas?  Are we watching The Stepford Wives come to life?

By all means, let's focus on banning contraceptives, I predicted that in 2022.  In 2021, I predicted them making M and F the only identifiable sex, and that's already come true. So as a reader, if you think my views are way 'out there' with no chance of coming true, I'll point to my track record; this isn't the first time I've written, 'told you so.

She Sells Sea Shells

In conclusion, I'll make a plea to any Republicans reading:  please buy things on my Etsy shop so I can save up enough to leave the country, that's what you want in the end.  I've got some cool Seashells from Puerto Rico, Hummels from Germany, Scarves from Mom and other interesting items you won't find on Amazon.  Dem's are invited, too.  Thanks!
