"How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?”
From Heather Cox Richardson this morning:
"Members of the House of Representatives are back in their districts for August, and on Monday, Republican Mike Flood of Nebraska held a town hall in Lincoln. A woman asked what she called a fiscal question.
She said: “With 450 million FEMA dollars being reallocated to open Alligator Alcatraz, and 600 million taxpayer FEMA dollars being used to now open more concentration camps, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?”
The crowd cheered wildly.

As I’ve already shown in previous posts, both Lana Pozhidaeva and Masha Drokova appear to have been Russian intelligence operatives when they worked with Epstein. Dougan’s story adds another component to what we know about Russia’s active measures in America at the time."

Impressive Resume...
How did America whiff on this one? How is it possible we let this guy get anywhere near the White House? Still godsmackingly wild. I, for one, will probably never understand how we let this complete fail & fuck-up dominate our political scene.
Can we get thru it? Hmmm. Don't know. How bad will it get? How bad is it right now?
We are disappearing people off the streets of America, building concentration camps, destroying all the institutions of Education, Science, Health & Human Services. Taking Healthcare and Food away from the needy. Selling out America to the highest bidders. We are a corrupt Mafia State (see previous post), and a budding Authoritarian Hellscape. All this carnage and mayhem to our lovely country is intentional. Fuck.
We are going to need a total rethink, redo, of the American Dream. But at the moment all the forces of opposition are on their back foot, & out of power.
Let's not lose heart or hope. We need to get thru this horrible phase, some how, some way. We need a renewal. So, yeah, first acknowledge the utter shittiness of the state of the state. Lean to the light. Damn the Torpedoes. Believe in Better Day and a Better Way.

USA = The New Mafia State...
Yes. A new framing idea: Mafia State. Maybe better than Fascist State? I mean, better, as in, more accurate?
"In politics, a mafia state is a state system where the government is tied with organized crime to the degree when government officials, the police, and/or military became a part of the criminal enterprise."Saturday, July 26, 2025

New Blue Sun, the Best Medicine...
Music. Yes. Truly Spiritual and Psychological Medicine. Listening to it, playing it, being totally obsessed with it. Always having it spinning on the box, or always having a guitar nearby, or having a band of musicians (or two bands), ready to meet, rehearse and play. My partner and I are a songwriting team. I also have another close friend with whom I write songs. It's kind of amazing. Even to me.
I have all my favorite singers & bands at my fingertips. I have my little CD player and my very fine GRADO headphones. Wherever I go, there is usually a big stereo system in the family room to keep busy.
Lately, the last 5 or 6 months, my partner and I have obsessed over Andre 3000's "New Blue Sun." (2023). It's Andre's "flute album." We each have our own personal copy of the 2 CD album. We both refer to it as "medicine." We play it when we meditate, or when we just want to set a chill atmosphere, or right before we go to sleep. Truly magnificent.
It's all very floaty, like a beautiful, cooling breeze, or swaying trees, or a bird silently flying low over a green field. You know, listening to good music is good for you. An easy formulation and recommendation. And yes, this is just the finest. Highly recommended.

Celebrating Mamdani...
Oh. Yeah. I wanted to celebrate some good news: Zohran Mamdani won the NY Primary for Mayor and is the favorite to win in November. Yes. A young Muslim/American, a Socialist & Progressive Democrat from the AOC and Bernie Sanders wing of the party beat the candidate the Democratic establishment were backing: a failed, disgraced ex-Governor Andrew Cuomo. It was a magnificent surprise. Even over here in our sleepy Midwestern town we were rooting for Mamdani. Seemed like a long-shot. Sometimes the remarkable good thing happens. Should New York have a young, dynamic, socially-idealistic, Democratic Mayor? Of course.
The celebration is for Democracy too. Funny. You think it's all going down the shitter. America on the ropes, and the long slide into oblivion, and then, a surprise. That is the beauty of Democracy. It can turn on a dime. People Power. Just common folks, can step up and make it happen. It helps to have a charismatic personality to ignite the folks. This time the igniting wasn't based on hate or division, but a coming together for a common good. Yes. That is a great reason & occasion to celebrate.

Many of us could see that electing Trump was a major catastrophe for America & the World. Wrong in so many ways. We could see that this lawless conman and his boot-licking lackeys could lead us all to a horribly wrong-headed, idiotic, heartless, criminal future. Well. Just how wrong can it go? Thinking epically, prodigiously, un-imaginably wrong. We are now deeply in the fuck around & find out phase of our existence. Yikes. Below is a pitch-perfect response to the latest outrage & stupidity. AOC is one our favorite Democratic Representatives, an essential voice in the middle of the chaos...

The American People Say, "No Kings..."
What are those little dots all across the map of the USA? Sites of the upcoming "NO KINGS" protests on Saturday, June 14. How many citizens will come out to show their support for America, the Rule of Law, and the Constitution? Who knows?!
I will venture a guess that the number of folks protesting the current lawless turn, will dwarf Trump's stupid, pointless, costly, ridiculous military parade in Washington D.C. We shall see.

Easy to Choose Sides. Power to the People.
This. Exactly.
"Trump knows exactly what he’s doing when he falsely applies the term “insurrectionist.” Senate Republicans letting him off the hook for 1/6 was a massive blow to the constitutional order."
We have major problem on our hands and it isn't the protestors. It is the wanna-be strong-man wielding his authoritarian power.
From David Huerta, President of the Service Employees International Union California, injured & arrested last Friday by ICE:
"What happened to me is not about me. This is about something much bigger. This is about how we as a community stand together and resist the injustice that’s happening. Hard-working people, and members of our family and our community, are being treated like criminals. We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice. And we all have to stand on the right side of justice.”Monday, June 09, 2025
