Blue Monday (video)

January 29, 2023

I have decided to boycott all discussions about TFG.

I have been as vocal as anyone in my constant criticism but I think the time has come to hand over everything, including the criticism, to the DOJ and the Special Counsel.

I have spent too much time on the criminal that once stole the presidency. He has no legitimacy and it is now up to the DOJ to prove it.

Trump should be in a padded cell...

...in a strait-jacket.

His latest comments are off the wall. He is recycling his golden oldies about the "Russian hoax" and all the grievances from the past. He is always the victim in his own passion play.

His words and his anger in his social media posts reflect a desperate man. Fortunately, he is now a desperate man without power.

He is like a rat in the corner. He feels trapped as his lies no longer work the way they once did.

His toxicity upon the world stage should not be under-estimated.

The world will be a much better place once he is removed from the stage.

Do you anticipate a big "Breaking Story" today?

Perhaps indictments from the Fulton County DA, Fani Willis?

As Andrew Weisman noted, she may want to indict before the Judge makes a decision about public disclosure?

If she does indict, will Trump be on her list? Or will she go after his inner circle?

In my opinion, if she indicts one of them, she should indict them all.

Why Trump remains so obsessed about the "Russia, Russia, Russia hoax"?

Nothing seems to bother him to the degree of the "Russia hoax"?

Why?

Because he knows something is out there and it is just a matter of time until it is discovered.

He hopes to discredit and minimize it to the point no one will believe it when it is finally exposed.

With the latest breaking news from the NY Times, it may be getting very close to being discovered? Former Special Counsel, John Durham, discovered a possible criminal act while he attempting to find dirt on Hillary after the election of 2016. He was pushed former AG Bill Barr to find something, surely at the urging of Donald Trump.

This seems like a story worth following.

It may surprise you to know who Trump has chosen as his "defense" team in the coming indictments?

It is not Rudy Guiliani or some big-name lawyer.

It is Kevin McCarthy and his insurrectionist promoters on the House Select Committees.

McCarthy is following the orders of Donald Trump. His first step was in kicking Schiff and Swalwell off the Intelligence Committee. He is attempting to extort the Congress of the United States.

The "grievance" committees are working for Donald Trump. If Trump is indicted, Joe Biden will be impeached. McCarthy is all in with Trump.

In my opinion, the classified document search of Joe Biden's home and office was done at the request of Donald Trump, by his friends and supporters in the FBI, perhaps behind the back of Merrick Garland?

The Select Committees in the House are there to do the bidding of Donald Trump. They are there to attack anyone who attacks their former Leader. That is why they were created. Do not think they were created without the encouragement of the former president.

His strategy is to tear down the government from the inside if they continue to go after him for his crimes. He will not go silently into the night. He has chosen McCarthy and the insurrectionists in the Congress to defend him in this battle.

Trump and his crimes are invisible to Republicans.

They wasted little time going after Joe Biden for informing the National Archives and the DOJ about classified documents he had discovered at his home and office.

As if they were oblivious to the stolen documents and the obstruction by the former president, they attacked Biden as if he had done something horrendous and illegal. They were able to ignore everything that Donald Trump had done. They were able to overlook the crimes he committed.

They were armed for bear. They would destroy Joe Biden with the classified documents that were discovered in his home.

But then, Mike Pence discovered classified documents at his home in Indiana.

Suddenly, it was like their battleship had been sunk. They had nothing to fight Joe Biden with. Pence had upset their dream conspiracy.

It was rather odd. Mike Pence, with his classified documents, was able to derail their intended investigation of Biden and Trump had absolutely no bearing on their plans?

It is natural, and to be expected, for criminals to proclaim their innocence.

No matter if it is a murderer, bank robber, an insurrectionist, or a Congressman, they will proclaim their innocence right up to the execution date. They use victimhood as a crutch.

Yesterday, one of the insurrectionists was proclaiming his innocence. His excuse was that he was not tried by a jury of his "peers". I suppose he thought it would only be a fair trial if he was tried by other insurrectionists, or those that sympathized with them? The jury made short order of the case and found him guilty. He is going to appeal.

The insurrectionists, and the Republican Congress, all used the same meaningless excuse. They were going "to take back their country". The truth of the matter is that they had all become members of a cult and were guilty of a crime. They conspired to overthrow our government.

Naturally, they deny that is the case. Jim Jordan, a Congressman from Ohio, is such a strong denier that he now wants to investigate the investigators. Although he was deep into the conspiracy and acted in a criminal manner.

The supporters of Trump and the insurrectionists do not escape blame. However much they criticize the Democrats and the election process, they were part of the conspiracy. They hide from the truth and make up conspiracy theories to validate their suspicions and to clear their own consciences of any blame.
