It is all madness
PLUS: Join Wes Siler and me to talk about the Trump threat against public lands and the environment TODAY at 12 pm ET on Substack Live
Donald Trump has turned Mar-a-Lago into a cross between Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch and Disney’s Magic Kingdom, with the main difference being venomous lies have replaced giant turkey legs as the meal of the hour.
ICE has come to America’s airports except now they’re NICE!
When observing ICE observing the passengers in 4- or 5- or 6-hour long security lines it does seem to suggest that removing their masks helps them behave respectfully, decently, lawfully and professionally.
Why is ICE in the airports?
Why is Melania Trump selling a $600 “Freedom” necklace out of the White House?
Why is Kai Trump selling an apparel line?
Why is every Trump selling something?
Why are Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski at a conference together in Guyana?

There is much to ponder.
Donald is feeling something this spring.
He wondered if he could “take Elvis in a fight” on a journey to Graceland, and now he is transfixed by the beautiful ICE muscles.
Donald Trump has shut down the government because he wants ICE to wear masks — except at airports where they now spread niceness with no masks and big muscles. They’re less like federal law enforcement, and more like an evil version of the “Wonder Pets.”
Stephen MiKKKer hasn’t made the final decision yet, but it seems like there is a good chance that ICE is going to be dressed up in the old Trump Taj Mahal uniforms, and do drink service in Trump’s personal box at the opening ceremonies for the Olympics in Los Angeles. Some may even serve as muscle-bound ring boys for Trump’s MMA fight on the White House Lawn that desecrates the anniversary of George Washington taking command of the Continental Army.
At any rate, it is most astounding — even by MAGA standards — that a shutdown of the federal government over a masked ICE Gestapo running wild and abusing, assaulting, shooting and murdering US citizens, while building a vast network of giant prisons out of industrial warehouses has resulted in Trump sending unmasked agents to airports to prove the point that they shouldn’t wear masks.
What other country can match our idiocracy?
All across America, wherever there may have been a Department of Homeland Security office of any type, the photographs of Kristi Noem have come down.
The MarkWayne Mullin era has begun.
Today, Kristi Noem reports to the Deputy Secretary of State Chris Landau, who looks like a nice fellow, but lacks the joie de vivre of special government employee Corey Lewandowski, who was relieved of his duties while overseas with Noem — and without Air F*ck One.
Perhaps it is the case that the quagmire in Iran is called “The Lewandowski” around the White House. Its team of imbeciles has managed to provoke a war with Iran that will leave the regime victorious, and standing in a war against America that is producing a billion in revenue for Russia, and costing the United States $2 billion per day.
My friends, it is all madness.
The White House is an asylum.
The president is deranged.
He is a predator and criminal, and he is immoral, abusive and dishonest.
He is a liar and charter member of the Epstein class.
Trump’s cabinet is a menagerie of unfitness, a hive of corruption and idiocy.
Nothing like it has ever existed over 250 years.
Trump has built a gaggle of submissive sycophants scraped from a dirty barrel’s bottom goo. They share a faith in rottenness, and the deepest contempt for the US Constitution with a talent for shamelessness and bootlicking that is supernatural.
What is happening in America is a type of collapse that should not be laughed at.
Things are breaking.
Trump is breaking them.
There are 221 days until the midterm elections.
We must vote this insanity out of power.
We must rebuke it.
Should it continue the catastrophe will be immeasurable.
The lies keep coming
Last evening, I joined Don Lemon on “Lemon Live at 5” to talk about the deepening crisis in Iran, and the lies and spin coming out of the White House. We also talked about former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura's call for Barron Trump to enlist in the US military. Our conversation begins around the 17-minute mark.
Hope you’ll take a listen:






This is the ultimate price of 'murkan exceptionalism. We have thought so highly of ourselves, believed our own propaganda so long, stolen so much from every other corner of the world and put it to extremely poor use, and created a hologram of a peoples who just can do no wrong while doing almost everything terribly. Worst polluters, worst excess behaviors, worst in-country stochastic violence, worst school violence, worst food supply contamination with pollutants and toxins to date, worst waste of critical water sources, worst performance in international warlike adventures where we always come home with tails between legs; shall I go on? The grandiose outcome of all this to date is we are now self-victimized gulag dwellers suffering Stockholm Syndrome from the waterboarder-in-chief, TACO TFG. Embarrassment is when you forget to zip your fly or button that one button on your blouse. TACO TFG is self-humiliation, self-abuse, self-hate, self-love, self-denial all rolled into a Jabba the Hut costume. A disturbance in the Force indeed. If we do not Own It, we will perish inside it.
You got all the good words, Steve, .... and nice yard sign: VOTING IS A RIGHT NOT A PRIVILEGE See all of you this Saturday, with our signs, American flags, JOY, because WE are the U.S.A.
