Longtime racist Jefferson Beauregard Sessions is failing Donald, our first orange president. JBS faced the sycophant’s dilemma when he recused himself from certain Senate hearings — how do you cover your ass while performing a scaramooch?
And Jeff was T’s number one fan.
DJT only has eyes for himself and the adoring eyes of his sycophants. Every moment of his life spent on a loving consideration for his own countenance, his mirror mythologically faithful. Is it his fate to starve in a chamber oval? Famous fingers turning everything to gold?
W set a low bar for his predecessors, while his intellectual curiosity appeared slight the guy actually read the printed word. Mr. Orange’s intellectual curiosity celebrates the perpetuation of ignorance in the ultimate bully pulpit. We have a president who is functionally illiterate.
Awakening to nightmare is daily doom. I take solace in the company of my peers, thank you kind readers 🙂
What’s chilling your bleeding heart today, Bill?
A piece in today’s NYT.
The document, an internal announcement to the civil rights division, seeks current lawyers interested in working for a new project on “investigations and possible litigation related to intentional race-based discrimination in college and university admissions.”
45 is the original birther. Obama called him out at a White House Correspondents’ Dinner — history may note this as the event that ignited the movement for orange-rights.
Did you know that elected officials take an oath to protect the Constitution upon assuming public office? Amendments to that constitution serve to redress imbalances, to make it a living document. But not to originalists like Antonin Scalia, his apprentice Neil Gorsuch et al.
Originalism codifies raciesm in perpetuity. All men white and male propertied in land and propertied in slaves are created equal. Inalienable white-right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Equal protection under the law did not exist before the constitution was deliberately amended to include that right. The bookshelf containing the holy writ and relicts read by originalists is very short.
You’re probably one of those animal-rights freaks too, are you?
Yes.
The American version of slavery defined slavehood as extending into perpetuity. Once a slave, or the progeny of a slave, a branding for life.
Thanks for reading.
Bill, I’m a man of no illusions. It’s damning. Flawed is the government of and by a defective species. As such, might I offer, there’s no hope, only growing frustrations. History bears witness.
Thanks for writing.

Thanks for the kind comment, Peter. I fully agree with you on the defective species argument too. I guess “it takes one to know one.” 🙂
No fellow Earth creature comes close, only human arrogance steeped well in ignorance would judge otherwise. And no other species maintains death camps (slaughter houses) for completely spurious reasons.

Strange post Bill but the reason I popped in was to ask what happened to you?
If it was something I wrote – well I did send you some Wikipedia links to help you swallow the facts.
Anyway what the hell I’m sure you are never going to step into reality and smell the humus.
Pity I thought I was helping 🙂

Hello Mike, Thank you for comment, It reminds me of “The Strange Doctor Weird” (1944-45) an Old-Time Radio broadcast — listening to OTR is another of my hobbies.
I’ve just been riding the electronic waves and suffering the occasional wipeout from an electronic tsunami, I had not forgotten our conversation; however, thank you much for your very kind inquiry. By no means is it something you wrote; your firsthand personal experience in Hebron is of great interest to me and I look forward to hearing more. To every extent possible I try to follow this maxim: listen to “the other” before formulating a response, mull the other’s words before responding, then speak truth as you know it. I do not often succeed, but the maxim is still wise.
In my opinion, Wikipedia is better at topics that are not “hot button” ones, ones that do not serve agendas. Here is a single example: type in “Hasbara” and you are not taken to a page titled “Hasbara.” Rather, you are taken to a page titled “Public diplomacy of Israel.” Before that it was “Public diplomacy in Israel.” Before that “Public diplomacy — Israel.” Why does it not take you to “Hasbara”?
My apologies for the delayed response, I hope to respond in detail within the next couple days.
Shalom,
Bill
