Patriot Melania Honors Predators

As Eric Prince called for the return of Colonialism and others want the return of the Aristocracy, First Lady Melania Trump, the wife of our digital Caligula, accepted the Fox Nation "Patriot of the Year" award.  I named her speech the "Ode to a Few."

There's a strong shout out to TechGods, the greater (Peter Thiel) and the lesser (VP J.D. Vance).  

Melania worked in a nod to employers, which includes private equity underwriters (PEU).   For fifteen years they've been known as "policy making billionaires." 

There's a tip of the hat to Trump II, builder of cities.  Trump's newest buildings are going up outside of the U.S. in the oil rich Middle East.

The "common good" arises from "their creation."  Not yours, not mine.

Note how God is completely absent from this speech and how many of God's powers have been usurped by TechGods trying to build the science fiction of their youth.  

Elon Musk deserves his $1 trillion pay package, recently approved by shareholders, because everything at Tesla is his creation.  Musk referred to Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) as "corporate terrorists" after they recommended a no vote on his pay package.  One can read his Tesla employee reviews on Glassdoor and know that Elon is missing significant knowledge about leadership, as are many of his fellow TechGods.  

Aristocracy is back.  TechGods have one simple task, to please Trump II, emotionally and monetarily.  As long as Daddy is happy, TechGods can garner huge chunks of federal business and tap Uncle Sam's wallet for $ billions. 

We know how much the government pays for a hammer.  How much might that "all night algorithm" fetch under a Trump approved deal?   Surely, someone at World Liberty Financial knows.

That which is natural and beautiful has virtually no relation to this administration, Trump's band of cabinet lackeys or his insufferable TechGod supporters.  TechGods are thrilled that they can dismantle freedoms and harm citizens for riches/status beyond belief.

From God's creation, many wonderful things can arise.  TechGods and Trump II intend to pilfer, naturally and inevitably.  It's anything but beautiful.  It's unGodly.

Trump Pardons Another Parasite

Trump II, the digital Caligula, pardoned two more fraudsters, the former Tennessee Speaker of the House and his former Chief of Staff.  Obviously, they are members of the political Red Team.  

The case involved setting up a corporation with a non-existent person as CEO to target government funds.  The real person running the organization had to leave his political advisor job due to racist and sexist e-mails.  The Speaker of the House exchanged sexually explicit texts with his staffer.

This pardoned pair set up a scheme to churn available government money for the benefit of a creepy former staff member.  That sounds on brand for Trump.  It also fits with the trajectory of our politically connected business climate that warmed significantly over the last fifteen years for private equity underwriters (PEU), TechGods and CryptoBros.

Red Team Tries Explaining Prices (like Biden)

House Speaker Mike Johnson tried to explain that food prices always go up.  What happened to supply and demand?  Flashback one month:

President Trump told the United Nations General Assembly late last month: “Grocery prices are down, mortgage rates are down, and inflation has been defeated.”

The Red Team got shellacked in Tuesday's elections with independent voters running away from Republican candidates.  I'm not sure Mike Johnson is going to win them back with his "food prices always go up" lecture.  

"Always go up" is the Trump mantra for the financial markets and he pried open 401(k) accounts for a spate of risky ventures, private equity, private credit, and crypto.  We'll see what Trump II, the digital Caligula and Mike Johnson say if those don't work out for retirees in the manner sold to them.  

When did Mike Johnson start using Trump's makeup?  I assume that's why his nose looks so different.  

I don't want to think about how it might have been applied.

Politics and sausage, eeeeewwwww......

Trump Evokes IT

Independent voters sent the political Red Team a huge message in yesterday's elections.  As usual, Trump II, pretended not to hear it.  The results did ignite his easily triggered, grossly excessive retaliatory impulses.    AND SO IT BEGINS

Stick a sock in it, old man.  Shut up for once and listen.  Independent voters, the group that swings elections, do not want you remaking everything in your image and purloining the public treasury for your family's personal wealth.  That began decades ago and it's taken many people time to realize the depths of the insider money funnel fueling both political teams.  Trump II made it obvious.

President IT ride your evil clown bus down the revenge ravine and back up the hill of spoils.  It's all you are capable of doing.  And that's why so many voted for anything but that...

Blather: Trump Speaks & Speaks & Speaks

Now that CBS toed the line and allowed Trump II to blather spontaneously with no pesky interruptions, his Tower of Bullshit is nearly complete.  The news is to take direct quotes from Trump II and handle them as if they are fine crystal and a magnanimous gift from a King.  

When all the news stations become amplifiers for Trump's blatant nonsense his "Tower of Babble On" will be finished.  Any similarities between Trump's newest tower of toilets and an AI data center all are purposeful.  Neither are in touch with the real world, are voracious consumers of resources, hallucinate frequently and lack any semblance of an ethical, spiritual or moral center.

The January 6th Garden of Tourists sits in a special courtyard for news reporters to use for lunch breaks, when management allows.  Building vending machines only accept USD1 or $TRUMP payments.  Tips for Trump II are automatically included and will be used to fund his AI library.

The 13th floor is a private club for TechGods and CryptoBros, costing $10,000 a day per person.  That's pennies on the dollar each TechGod/CryptoBro stands to pull from the federal treasury under Trump II, the digital Caligula.

The news has a new job, dictation.  Given Trump II's nasty personality we can upgrade that job to prick-tation.   Bend over reporters and listen intently for Trump has a new line to insert.

While the regular news falls apart America's comedians regularly come to the rescue and shine the light on Trump's persistent and grandiose entitlement.  Thank God for them.

"Church and State" Flashback

Brandi Carlisle's new son "Church and State" has roots.  Nearly fifty years ago rock band U2 sprung from Irish religious conflict.  Their early songs had a distinct sound and often had religious themes.  

Around the same time conservative Christian groups formed in the United States.  Rev. Jerry Falwell started the Moral Majority and Rev. Pat Robertson established what is now Regent University. 

During the time Rev. Billy Graham allied with political leaders.  He later grew to rue this decision.

Billy Graham would have spoken less and studied more. As Billy Graham got older, he increasingly valued the life of the mind. Pragmatism and activism needed to be better balanced with more contemplation and deeper thought. 

The second regret was that he would have spent more time with his family. The demands of his work and extensive travel detrimentally impacted his family life. Both his wife and children have spoken transparently about the challenges they faced with a father and spouse who was so often absent. 

The third regret was not spending enough time in the spiritual nurture of his own soul and fellowship with other Christians who could have taught him, encouraged him, and rebuked him when necessary. 

The fourth regret may also be surprising. It was the regret of endorsing partisan politics. As a pastor to presidents and politicians, Billy Graham puts it this way, “There have been times I undoubtedly stepped over the line between politics and my calling as an evangelist.”

Christian Conservatives and U2 did not click.  Heavenly wisdom and earthly power usually mix poorly.

Those are the roots for "Church and State."  They exist in today's soil, the hardpan desert of Christian Nationalism, a harsh, violent Old Testament version where kings, jewels, armies, loyalty and obedience are prized and where Jesus, the One who taught us a better way, is shoveled to the side.

The roots exist in today's air, polluted by TechGods who have usurped God's domains.  God trusted creation to us, not inference machines (AI).  

God's heavenly promise of healing and wholeness in heaven is replaced by lurid TechGods wanting to live forever.  Revelations in The Bible has been twisted to keep government out of the TechGods business, which by their right is unfettered, unlimited and untaxed.

Some of us believe the TechGods next act (AI) will be legions more harmful than their last (social media).  

Some of us believe the people's government should protect us from clear evils, greed, violence (including from authorities), sexual predation, fraud, and persecution, religious and otherwise. 

Some of us believe faithfulness begins with  loving God and loving our neighbor and extends to keeping alive the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.   

I am grateful to Brandi Carlisle for taking me back and giving voice to the unheard and diminished in today's cacophonous environment, where politicians use religion to divide and manipulate.  

Loving God and loving your neighbor are nowhere to be seen in today's political environment.  How can that be in a State that wants a specific form of Church?  That church must not be real.

Trump's Weave (Not Hair Related)

Trump II offered several positions recently that I believe he wants to spread in lice like fashion to other areas.  First, restarting nuclear testing.  It's OK because "everyone else" is doing it, like the kids "6-7".  It's not much of stretch to steer that to the Senate where eliminating the filibuster is referred to as "the nuclear option." Trump wants detonations, everywhere, maybe 6 or 7 a week.

The second area where the Trump non-hair weave may be in play, Muslims.  Trump threatened to send troops to Nigeria to stop Muslims from killing Christians.  Nevermind the practicality or legality of his proposal.  There is a Muslim running for Mayor of New York City. Trump wants an image of Muslims killing Christians in people's heads as they go to the polls on election day.

The weave is also a good disguise for Trump's savage whims which have no consistent moral or logical foundation.  His retaliatory impulse rages 24 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  

There are no discernable behaviors or words showing knowledge of or commitment to the teachings of Christ.  Trump does not do service or follow-ship.  His iron will, when heated properly, also works well as a hair press.

Be the weave, Donald.....you can work in 6 or 7 ideas as you wave your hands.

Update:  The weave is a public diversion for backstage goings on.  Biden's pardon of someone he may not know, invalid.  Trump's pardon of someone who used $2 billion of WLFI USD1 stablecoin and who Trump doesn't know and pretends there is no question, same sorry thing.  

Politicians Red and Blue love PEU (private equity underwriters/policy making billionaires) and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one. 

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards.  Trump speaks Pablum.  He offers blather.
