Does it bother you at all that this current administration thinks the entire country is frigging stupid? I’m going to be nice and won’t speak about Trump supporters, but I will speak about those of us who are free and independent thinkers gathering information and knowledge from a number of sources, not from just one outlet beginning with the letter F. Before I post some of my ramblings, I do fact check and try to be certain I am accurate with what I write. For example, last week I wrote about the young female Navy guard at a Navy Post in Corpus Christi who helped thwart a terrorist from entering the Base. There had been a post on Facebook stating she had been shot (which she was), but then got up and with great resolve walked up to the shooter and put several bullets in his chest, stopping him from entering and killing many soldiers, her supposed name was given with a picture of her standing with a mean looking German Shepard K9. The person who had posted this had made up about half of the story in the FB post, and thankfully I did some fact checking before writing my post with that person’s account. There is currently a meme going around with a photo of Hitler and tRump side by side holding a Bible. Today on several news sites they show the original Hitler photo without him holding a Bible and state that the Hitler photo has been photoshopped into the photo. So all I’m saying is that I do try to make sure my writing is accurate and not from a FB “Share.” A few posts ago I talked about “gaslighting” being a predominant strategy of the tRumpster and his administration and here we go again after the bizarre bible episode photo op on Monday night. What you saw with your own two eyes you didn’t really see. The video that you saw of peaceful protestors at Lafayette Square near the Episcopal church isn’t what you really saw, because according to the White House, the U.S. Park Police were being run over by protestors, so they naturally needed to defend themselves. Multiple journalists observing the protests said the protesters were demonstrating peacefully before the police started pushing people and using their batons and shields, which is supported by hours of video footage. Neither the police nor the White House have provided evidence to back up their claims that protesters were hiding weapons like glass bottles, bats, and metal poles near the park as the Park Police and WH claimed. The tear gas wasn’t really tear gas according to the newest press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany. “No tear gas was used, no one was tear-gassed. … There’s been a lot of misreporting.” Not only did Journalists on the scene and protesters report seeing chemical irritants deployed and said they experienced symptoms such as coughing and watering eyes as authorities sought to move the protesters back, but a television reporter picked up gas canisters from the street. They think we are stupid and will just keep lying to us.
And y’all know that “Tough Guy Donnie” didn’t hide in the basement bunker, but was just down there inspecting it. And it wasn’t at night when the protestors were screaming at the fences, but during the middle of the day. He had to see what kind of condition Barack had left it in, and, of course, it was a total mess. What a ‘bunkerbitch.”
I told you yesterday that he was going to have his panties in a wad after General Mattis wrote the piece for the Atlantic. The Twitterholic had 75 tweets from midnight to sometime this morning. Not once mentioning George Floyd or his family, but instead tweeting he had “the honor of firing” Mattis, which, according to General Kelly, was a big f…ing lie. Kelly says, “the president did not fire him. He did not ask for his resignation,’ ‘The president has clearly forgotten how it actually happened or is confused.” In my opinion, he’s confused most of the day. I’m sure he tells himself every day, “If I didn’t have those damn bone spurs, I could have been the greatest General in the history of the United States.” “Mattis is just overrated.”
Sweet dreams y’all. Ziggyman
