Trump Usurps Heaven's Promise

The Bible has many passages on God's healing and the promises of being made whole in heaven.  One Bible verse states:

"Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed"

Trump II usurped that promise with an AI generated video of the fictitious Med-Bed of QANut origin.  Trump did not make the video but he posted it on his TruthSocial account, before deleting it.

The message to his followers is Trump will heal you on this plane.  Will there be new scripture added to the Trump Bible?

Trump posted the video because he believed it would maximize his image in the present moment.  He removed the video hours later for the very same reason.  

There is nothing Trump won't surround, subsume and incorporate as his own.  That includes God and his heavenly promises, as well as the current practice of medicine.

Trump Unites UN Against Him

My mind wandered as I listened to Trump II, the digital Caligula, blister the United Nations for its numerous failures.  I focused on his nose, the skin seeming to show a series of fracture lines.  I thought that appropriate as Trump breaks things.  He uses people and tosses them aside.

For a brief moment I envisioned the UN audience giving back to Trump the venom he so regularly spews.  In my mind I heard the crowd repeatedly chant:

"Jeffrey Epstein was your friend.  To his will you still bend." 

Their unified voices drowned out Trump's diatribe.

One can dream in the middle of our national nightmare.  I know things can get worse, as in much worse.  I worked for a private equity underwriter (PEU) owned healthcare provider and saw that up close and personal. 

A PEU founder of Apollo provided Epstein with $170 million for "tax advice."  

The billionaire class benefits most from the Big Beautiful Bill tax breaks.

Free speech is under assault by lawsuit happy Trump II and his gross band of enablers.  Privacy is long gone under intrusive layers of technology at home, in our communities and the workplace, courtesy of TechGods.  The American Dream remains on life support as AI lurks nearby, wearing a black cloak and holding a scythe.  

Government is of the PEU/TechGods, by the PEU/TechGods and for the PEU/TechGods.  Trump II intends to have a $200 billion net worth when he leaves office in January 2029.  I expect he'll get his way, just like the angry guy n the nursing home.  Give him what he wants so he'll shut the ____ up.

Trump's "Artificial Intuition" Based Medicine

Trump II imposed his "artificial intuition" on the field of medicine with his statements on Tylenol use during pregnancy as contributing to increased autism diagnoses.  

NIH will start an Autism Data Science initiative that includes "artificial intelligence."

Forbes reported:

One of the most basic tenants of statistics is that correlation does not imply causation. In turn, a signal’s predictive power does not necessarily imply in any way that that signal is actually related to or explains the phenomena being predicted. 

This distinction matters when it comes to machine learning because many of the strongest signals these algorithms pick up in their training data are not actually related to the thing being measured.

The public should prepare to be confused between Trump II's common sense (intuition) and AI's propensity to hallucinate and produce garbage.  Flash back to the Covid pandemic when Trump I said:

"I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs."

That very same man suggests in the case of high fever during pregnancy "you'll take a Tylenol, but do so very sparingly." 

"Fight like hell not to take it" said Trump II, the digital Caligula.  It's an over the counter medication, so there is no need to fight like hell.  

Remember at the beginning of his medical advice Trump II could not pronounce "acetaminophen." Near the end he said:

This nonsense is what to expect when you combine Trump's decades old Artificial Intuition and Artificial Intelligence.

Medicine is the latest Trump II usurpation.  Give him time and he will subsume all professional and scientific fields.

Update 9-23-25:  Trump II, the digital Caligula, brought his grumpy old man shtick to the United Nations.  Trump torched everything and everybody.  The Great Usurper strikes again!

Supremes Endorse Trump Firings

The AP reported:

In a 6-3 decision, the high court also allowed the Republican president to carry out the firing of Rebecca Slaughter, a Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission, while the case plays out.

Justice Elena Kagan, joined by Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, dissented from the decision allowing Slaughter’s firing. It comes after similar decisions affecting three other independent agencies.'

“Congress, as everyone agrees, prohibited each of those presidential removals,” Kagan wrote. “Yet the majority, stay order by stay order, has handed full control of all those agencies to the President.”

It goes against a prior 1935 Supreme Court decision.  The full case will be heard in December with a final ruling in 2026.  

Precedent be damned as the U.S. Supreme Court returns the federal government to its monarchical roots.  

Charlie Kirk: Remembering vs. Appropriating

The political Red Team sent all their stars to the funeral for Charlie Kirk, currently being held at the NFL stadium in Arizona.  Kirk's murder robbed his family of their husband/father and his Turning Point organization of their founder.  It was a senseless crime committed by a 22 year old who dispatched Kirk like an enemy in a violent video game.

I had heard the name Charlie Kirk but knew very little about him, his messages or his movement. He seemed to be an outstanding motivational speaker for the Red Team who led with his faith.  

Jesus Christ's teachings are far above politics and the dirty games played in that environment.  

Reverend Billy Graham spoke of his regrets with the wisdom of age, something robbed from Charlie Kirk. Graham shared:

The first item on his regret list may be surprising. 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.”

Charlie Kirk deserves to be remembered by those who loved him.  He does not deserve to be appropriated by those who would use his life and death for their political gain.

Update:  As a Christian I was moved by the words of Charlie Kirk's widow, Erika.  Her message is about living Christ's gospel and went so far as to forgive Charlie's killer.  She did not focus on earthly desires or anger worthy of an Old Testament King.  God bless and hold close the Kirk family and all who loved Charlie.  

Update 9-22-25:  MAGA's worst called for holy war.  Jesus taught us a different way and that way is absent among many MAGA grievers.  Trump can give a National Day of Prayer talk and not say Jesus' name one time, yet he garners the projection of Christ as his guide.  There are no discernable behaviors shown by the man that he believes, much less follows, Christ's teachings.

Update 9-25-25:  MAGA attempted to appropriate Kirk's funeral service but was found wanting in relation to Erika's display of Christian love and grace.

Mind Numbing MAGA Words

 

My words:

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards. 

If your job is solely to serve as the mouthpiece and hands of a perpetually angry, selfish and petulant man, then you have no job at all. You are a prisoner in someone else's mind.

Update 9-20-25:  Vice President and former TechGod/PEU J.D. Vance said months ago: 

"Under Donald Trump's leadership, we may disagree with your views, but we will fight to defend your right to offer them in the public square, agree or disagree."

That no longer stands.

Trump said Thursday aboard Air Force One.

“When you have a network, and you have evening shows, and all they do is hit Trump, that’s all they do—if you go back, I guess they haven’t had a conservative one in years, or something.… When you go back and take a look, all they do is hit Trump. They’re licensed. They’re not allowed to do that.” 

The Trumpian Way

Trump II's foot soldiers not only have to create new ways to excessively flatter their boss, they must eliminate contrary messages and the people holding opposing beliefs.  This is the unwritten command:

"If you are not 100% with me and complimenting me without ceasing, then you are against me and I or my minions will come for you and take you out."

 That's where all this is going.  Comedian David Letterman noted:

“The institution of the president of the United States ought to be bigger than a guy doing a talk show.”

It ought to, but it is clearly not in the era of the petty tyrant and his coterie of enablers which includes a slathering Cabinet, society damaging TechGods, perpetually greedy private equity underwriters (PEU) and religious leaders following a man who seemingly displays none of Jesus Christ's teachings.

Letterman added:

"You can’t go around firing somebody because you’re fearful or trying to suck up to an authoritarian criminal administration in the Oval Office, that’s just not how this works.”

David Letterman just got on the list with his "hateful" speech.  It works this way until Congress or The Supremes intervene.  

Update 9-23-25:  Trump II, the digital Caligula, brought his grumpy old man shtick to the United Nations.  Trump torched everything and everybody.  

Cognitive Trump Jettisons Mandelson

The Guardian reported on Peter Mandelson's May 2025 visit to the White House for a US-UK trade deal 

After the Oval Office meeting with Trump, Mandelson left with a souvenir – a handwritten note in Trump’s distinctive marker scrawl and unmistakeable signature. 

“Peter,” it read. “Great Job!”

Four months later Trump II has no recollection, saying he does not know the man

 

That's deposition worthy material for a Chief Executive in business or government.  I don't know,,, I don't recall...I don't remember.

How so many important people suddenly meet the criteria for dementia is astonishing.  

I believe they call it lying or risk management.

Trust your eyes (what you see) and ears (what is said over time).  

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards.

If your job is solely to serve as the mouthpiece and hands of a perpetually angry, selfish and petulant man, then you have no job at all. You are a prisoner in someone else's mind.

Update 9-23-25:  Trump II, the digital Caligula, brought his grumpy old man shtick to the United Nations.  Trump torched everything and everybody.  If only the audience joined together in a loud chant of "Jeffrey Epstein, he's my friend.  To Trump's will he did bend."

Keep Your Head About You

"Maybe we should go after you..."  -  President Donald J, Trump to ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl

That statement could not be more reflective of our time.  

The poetic words of Rudyard Kipling echo a more virtuous time.

“If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;

If your job is solely to serve as the mouthpiece and hands of a perpetually angry, selfish and petulant man, then you have no job at all.   You are a prisoner in someone else's mind.

Update 9-15-25:  Two out of three Americans believe that harsh rhetoric used in politics is encouraging violence. 

Comedic legend David Letterman shared that he told jokes about 10 presidents and never heard anything from government officials. "We all see where this is going, correct?"  

Update 9-21-25:  NBC News reported:

The federal investigation into the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk has yet to find a link between the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and left-wing groups. 

“Every indication so far is that this was one guy who did one really bad thing because he found Kirk’s ideology personally offensive,” this person continued.

Update 9-21-25:   The Insane Red Team has angry younger members.  Trump II's chief creep Stephen Miller went full on rage at Charlie Kirk's funeral.  He even appropriated Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in his diatribe.  

Onward Christian Nationalist soldier.... marching as to war....

 Don't tell them Jefferson had his own Bible that focused solely on the Gospels of Christ.  No Old Testament.  

Stephen Miller should know not to bear false witness.

Leaders Need to Keep Their Heads

The execution of Charlie Kirk is abhorrent in a country founded on free speech, prizes vigorous campaigning for public office and then parks election rhetoric for governing for the good of the country.  

That has not existed for decades.  Red Teamer Karl Rove installed the permanent political campaign and both parties play the game, now deadly.

Trump cited the root cause of Kirk's killing before a suspect had been found and arrested.  One might recall the tragic air accident at Reagan Airport was due to "DEI."  The cause was a faulty altimeter, making Trump's assertion complete nonsense.

The Wall Street Journal noted the ammunition from the rifle used by the assailant had three words engraved on them, words associated with "transgender and antifascist ideology."  I had never heard of such a thing so I looked it up:  

"transgender antifascist ideology" is not a distinct ideology but a pairing of terms used to describe a political stance. 

One part, "antifascist," refers to a legitimate opposition to fascism.

The other part, "transgender ideology," is a term created by anti-trans activists to discredit transgender people.

Trump cited Radical Left Terrorists.  The New Yorker reported:

Even before Kirk’s death had been confirmed, Nancy Mace, a Republican congresswoman from South Carolina, spoke to reporters outside the Capitol. “Democrats own what happened today,” she told them. When Ryan Nobles, the chief Capitol Hill correspondent for NBC News, asked her if, by that logic, Republicans would own the shooting this summer of two Minnesota Democratic lawmakers, she replied, “Are you kidding me? . . . Some raging leftist lunatic put a bullet through his neck and you want to talk about Republicans right now? No. . . . Democrats own this a hundred per cent.”

The New Yorker closed with:

While others were praying for a sane conversation around how to end the rapidly escalating problem of violence across the political spectrum, the President and his close adviser defined the crisis differently: it was about the American right under siege—and what Trump was going to do about it. The point here was clear for those who chose to listen: the President doesn’t care one bit about all those sanctimonious calls for healing. It is not a dialogue about the crisis of political violence in America that he wants right now but an aggressive new policy of political vengeance.

Charlie Kirk was a Red Team motivational speaker, heavily aligned with Trump II.  

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards.

People who execute others for political reasons are damaged, operating from an extreme retaliatory impulse.  Such crimes bear responsible public safety investigation, free from political garbage.  That's not retaliation, like so many elected officials are offering.  

A leader's job is to keep their head whilst all others are losing theirs.  I pray for that and for all the families who are and have been the victims of political violence, regardless of party color.

Update 9-12-25:  The WSJ walked back their "transgender and antifascist ideology" reporting with experts saying, not so fast..

The suspect's family turned him in to the police.  It remains to be seen the motivation but there are networks of people around the globe grooming the next round of killers/assassins.  Disabling those networks should be a top priority for law enforcement.

Update 9-12-25:  A young white male with no leftist ties assassinated Charlie Kirk.  There are suggestions this was a far right assassination by  a perpetrator further to the right.  Trump II won't back down on his radical left framing, when there is absolutely no evidence to support his savage declarations.  Ideally, we could trust federal law enforcement to get to the bottom of these assertions but that is not possible under the current administration.  The Donald demands that all arms of the federal government 100% support his narratives.  

Apparently Nick Fuentes and Laura Loomer had beefs with Kirk.  Loomer called Kirk a “charlatan” and “political opportunist” who engaged in “mental gymnastics” and “stabs Trump in the back”. Fuentes was known for breaking up Turning Point engagements on college campuses.

The Epstein files remain under lock and key.  Will the Kirk files receive similar treatment?  

Update 9-13-25:  More questions are being raised about Tyler Robinson's Groyper connections.  Fox News and NYPost reported that Robinson's roommate is trans.

Update 9-15-25:  Utah Governor stated the assassination was planned and conducted solely by one individual.  Trump II and his sons/minions cite a widespread left wing campaign of violence.  His Domestic War Chief Stephen Miller cited "terrorist networks."  Two things cannot be true.

The Utah Governor has shown his poise and leadership abilities while Trump has been premature, excessive and inaccurate in his comments.  The White House epitomizes the permanent political campaign, hyper-partisanship and retaliatory excess which has led to violence by Trump's followers in the past.  Trump is incapable of peace, internationally and domestically.  The sooner Congress and the Supremes acknowledge this the better.  Individual citizens stand not a chance if Trump can pick off storied law firms and well endowed universities.

The free speech absolutists are up in arms over speech regarding Israel as it continues to pummel Gaza while steering its eyes toward the West Bank and Charlie Kirk, who built his Red Team motivational speaking career on "free speech."  We are entering bizarro territory where Trump's irreality collides with both history and the normal course of daily events in our communities.  

Apparently holding a belief other than Trump's is a terrorist act and worthy of a declaration of war.  The louder and more offensive the digital Caligula, the more he's siphoning from the federally controlled economy.  Who's in the Tik Tok deal?  Lutnick's kids, the Trump boys, Dominari Holdings, Mnuchin, Peter Thiel, Alex Karp, Elon Musk, Eric Schmidt...any private equity firms needing secondary marketing fodder?

Update 9-15-25:  Two out of three Americans believe that harsh rhetoric used in politics is encouraging violence. 

Update 9-21-25:  NBC News reported:

The federal investigation into the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk has yet to find a link between the alleged shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, and left-wing groups. 

“Every indication so far is that this was one guy who did one really bad thing because he found Kirk’s ideology personally offensive,” this person continued.

Trump II's chief creep Stephen Miller went full on rage at Charlie Kirk's funeral.  He even appropriated Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in his diatribe.  

Onward Christian Nationalist soldier.... marching as to war....

Don't tell Stephen Mr. Jefferson had his own Bible that focused solely on the Gospels of Christ.  No Old Testament.  

Miller should know better than to bear false witness. 

Trump's Voice Matters

Trump II, the digital Caligula, is cleaning up the streets of Washington, D.C.  Our Nobel Peace Prize coveting President ordered an anti-nuclear war peace vigil be destroyed.  The peace vigil began in 1981 and survived Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack H. Obama, Trump I and Joseph R. Biden.  It did not survive Trump II and his "Just Us" blitzkrieg.

Trump changed the Department of Defense to the Department of War, eliminating the former "woke" title enacted by President Harry S. Truman in 1949.  

Trump's voice matters, far and above all others.

Update 9-10-25:  Jesse wrote:

I find it almost amazing how boldly Trump's cabinet members lie to the people. Yes, all politicians lie, but generally it is the exception and not the rule. And there is always an element of 'shame' to it. 

Not anymore. Lying is now a duty to the Commander, even when it doesn't matter, or is counter-productive. 

And the manner in which the mask has fallen away from the madness of governments is stunning, even more so for the lengths to which some will bend their minds and hearts to excuse obvious sadism, dishonesty, injustice, and murder.

Israel Attacks Qatari Capital

Israel attacked a residential area of Doha, Qatar with the intent of assassinating members of Hamas.  A Hamas negotiating team is in Doha.   

Middle East Eye reported "around 12 air strikes struck residential buildings in Doha around 4pm local time."  The strikes were carried out by the Israeli Air Force.

I imagine the Arab League's patience is growing thin given Israel's repeated and gross violations of international law. 

Reports indicate Trump II was aware of the planned strike.

"Bone Spurs" Coming for Chi-Town

Trump II, the digital Caligula, used a Vietnam War movie as an analogy for his immigration pogram.  Trump failed to consider his privileged "free pass" from fighting in that bloody war, courtesy of a bone spurs diagnosis.  

The other odd thing about his Truth Social entertainment post is that he referenced the Department of War (newly renamed) instead of the Department of Homeland Security, where ICE actually lies.

These two errors in thinking are not a surprise for a 79 year old man renowned for his savage whims.  Thus, I propose his next Vietnam era movie:

It's free for Trump II to use however he wishes.  No license fees, transaction fees, or import taxes.  Free, free, free, free, free....

Schnitt Show: Thanks Joseph

James O'Keefe has "Just Us" Department senior official Joseph Schnitt on tape saying:

“They’ll redact every Republican or conservative person in those (Jeffrey Epstein) files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people in those files,” the official said over lunch. 

He also noted that Maxwell was “transferred to a minimum-security prison too recently, which is against [Federal Bureau of Prisons] policy because she’s a convicted sex offender.” He added, “They’re offering her something to keep her mouth shut.”

Trump is remarkably consistent in his depravity, as are his henchmen and henchwomen.  It's a Schnitt show.

This revelation came the day after South Park eviscerated Trump and Fox News.

Trump displays no discernable teachings of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.  Satan is as Satan does.
