Note to my silent Senator Cornyn: —— Three years 2 mos 9 days active duty. Another 2 yrs active reserve. Commission as an infantry officer. One key lesson post Viet Nam focused on illegal orders and war crimes. It was important to those of us inducted into the business of killing the enemy.

Listening Hegseth I believe we are witnessing the psychological game-ifying of war. Hegseth’s lack of seriousness suggests it’s a game, not a serious war w/ consequences, death & destruction, real costs. It as if he’s playing “Call of Duty”. It’s just fun for him.

My note to my Senator Cornyn: Trump wants to terrorize citizens as well as immigrants. You are allowing him. Trump needs an insurrection to have an excuse to cancel elections, if not nationally, then locally in Democrat districts and states. You are allowing him.

Filling the bathtub, filling the cooler with drinking water, have propane for the grill. If the wind stops blowing in the panhandle, all bets are off that ERCOT can keep the lights on without rolling blackouts despite their claims of readiness. dallasexpress.com/state/texas-...

Spain had its inquisition to establish its religious purity. It fell from being the most powerful European nation soon after. Germany pursued racial purity & it also fell soon after. Trump's model of US is doomed much like Spain & Germany. We rot from within once our values are hollowed out.

The Nazis used to sent the Gestapo into court rooms. Without saying anything, they would send a clear message to the judge about the outcome they expected for an accused political enemy. This is judicial intimidation. This is Trumpian fascism as well. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/u...

They are American programs that cut across all political affiliations and leanings. The cuts will impact Democrat voters and Republinut voters. It will affect Trump voters and Harris voters. They will be toppled by their own stupidity. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

Sometimes spellcheck backed by AI just screws up. It’s frustrating to type quickly, submit, and then discover spellcheck decided to go a different path. Add a little dyslexia and you get a whole new meaning via one key word change.

'We have a statue of MLK': GOP lawmakers push for Charlie Kirk monument in Capitol -RawStory Can’t even fathom a comparison of Kirk & MLK. Kirk was a white nationalist who resented black successes. Kirk’s hate was wide & deep across race, religion, gender. Like putting up a statue for Geobbels.

Reality sucks, but Trump lives in his own head like other autocrats (knows more than anyone about everything & anything contradictory is a lie). podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

When @hcrichardson.bsky.social called for music and art to protest the corruption in the Republican party, I started trying to write this. Took me 5 months to be happy with the lyrics. #Resist #Defend #Repeat youtu.be/NMLTfK4RoP4?...

I’m expecting MAGA with regime support to establish summer camps much like the American Nazi party operated in NJ in the 1930s. I’m certain they’ll want to further indoctrinate a broader following & align with extremists like their Nazi predecessors. Camp Norland, 1937-41 rallied with the KKK.

Response to Cornyn. You’re doing a great job as a Trump flunky, a minion of a despot. Your effort to dismantle constitutional law will be memorable. Keep up the great work so that the judiciary is completely, and hopeless powerless. It’s representatives like you that will keep corruption popular.

Trump missed it again. The atomic bomb ended a war. His big beautiful bomb has likely started an assymetrical war.

This how a decision for war was decided…from NYT. They did their marketing research…would it play well in the polls.

I am hoping that there is one Yosarian in the parade .

Note to Senator Cornyn: 1/ Big Beautiful Bill or Another Major Screw-up? Expand the deficit. Diminish healthcare. Take food from the hungry. Give Trump and his minions exemption from judicial orders and contempt citations.

Which understands economics better? I vote for cabbage.

From Almeidas: Trump then went to UAE to give a speech, and said this: ‘My first week, eggs were up 200%. Now, they are down 97%, 98% from where they were.’ $2.50 to $7.50 (that’s +200%). $7.50 down 98% is $0.15/dozen. Math not a Trump strong point.

In case you missed it, the FBI is disbanding its corruption unit that, among other investigations, looks in to corrupt Congress members federal employees. Free for all gets an OK. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/15/u...

The Temptation song “Ball of Confusion” came to mind today when reading about all of Trump’s seemingly confused and misleading statements. Look up the lyrics or give it a listen on your favorite streaming music service.

So close to reality it’s scary. youtu.be/x4OJGdtRx10

@nocanadatariffs.bsky.social from Bloomberg…oh, crap here we go again with TP hoarding.

From Huffington:" Musk said on Thursday night at Tesla all hands.. "Listen, I understand if you don't want to buy our product, but you don't have to burn it down. That's a bit unreasonable," he continued. Musk burning down gov't ok, though.

Trump’s plan and the Congressional CR that includes the tax cut renewal should lead us to this: youtu.be/sBtWTzJVgrU?...

"Key inflation data & possible government shutdown are in focus this week." --- NYT 3/13/2025 Can Trump regime produce truthful economic data? Will deficit hawks like Tea Partiers vote "Yes' on budget? What will Trump do during a shutdown? More of same or worse?

Another note to Sen. Cornyn. Not to my other reps who are a waste of DNA.

Zelenskyy cannot trust Trump any more than Putin; deal or no deal. If he shakes hands on a deal with Trump, he’d better count his fingers and continue vigilant defenses fore and aft. The Economist cartoon says all.

Another letter to my worthless senator, John Cornyn: —-

Note to my DC representatives. #Zelenskyy #ukraine #zelensky #johncornyn #chiproy

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social My republinut reps from TX can’t answer. Does anyone know who is paying the DOGE children’s crusaders? Under what contract are they working? Is their work agreement covered by FOIA? Who in Congress has oversight and budgeted money for DOGE and Crusaders?

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social Does anyone know who is paying the DOGE children’s crusaders? Under what contract are they working? Is their work agreement covered by FOIA? Who in Congress has oversight and budgeted money for DOGE and Crusaders?

If drug use testing is required of executive branch federal employees, has Musk been tested?

How ironic the timing and symbolism is. www.usatoday.com/videos/news/...

@kim.senate.gov Why not go on the offensive? Propose legislation (or get states to do it) that taxes every social media transaction. It is not a hindrance to free speech, but a tax on specific business activity. Strike back at the oligarchs. Hit hard. Be ruthless. Be imaginative. Stop them.

What a brilliant idea! Let’s send the Vance to Munich to make a speech that suggests legitimizing far right neo-Nazi parties in Germany. Did this bozo not think about the implications of the location’s history ? Right when Ukraine is treated like 1930’s Czechoslovakia: land for appeasement.

@joaquincastrotx.bsky.social can you give me an idea why Trump’s nominees have gotten thru with so little resistance? Given my reps are Republinuts (Cruz, Cornyn, and Roy), I doubt I’d get a response as to why a Democrat senator didn’t put a hold on even the worst of the nominees.

@raskin.house.gov I don’t understand why democrats don’t call for a national strike/sickout by industry, service, transportation, & government workers. He can’t fire or kneecap everyone. A shutdown stops everything he needs: revenue & CEO support. Give Trump a crisis to put him on the defensive.

In 1976 I took an oath to defend the Constitution as an Infantry 2LT. Once infantry, however, always infantry no matter the assignment. Congressmen similarly take an oath. Where is their courage while our constitution is being dismantled? Cowards and liars all.

Tried to contact my senators Cruz and Cornyn to express my displeasure with DOGE have access to vast amounts of personal identifying information from the Treasury. Both are blocking contact through the official web pages.🤬
