U.S. Timing: Bomb Strikes on Iranian Targets

Yesterday, June 21, 2025, Donald Trump made a decision to bomb three nuclear sites in Iran; which he deemed suspicious to be harboring large amounts of uranium to make nuclear bombs. Now American has opened the door to becoming involved in a war between Iran, an ally of Russia. And being true to his dictatorial form, our president made the decision for this military excursion without congressional approval. These days, the pathetically enamoured with Trump Republicans could care less about their "chosen one" operating outside of the Congressional realm. 

I knew something would happen after June 14, because Trump had his knickers wadded when a dismal crowd turned out for his birthday parade; absent of cake and ice cream and loaded with tanks plus guns. Whenever this bozo feels emasculated, he drums up something big or a controversy, to reassert his masculinity for the world to behold. Therefore, why not order the United States to bomb nuclear facilities in Iran? Regardless of what party one is in and what one's perception as to whether Iran is a nuclear threat, one should question the timing. Because that is how this narcissistic nut job works. 

Another thing to consider in the equation is how this racist president and his racist Republican constituents underestimate any group of people who are not white. If not of European descent, they automatically consider groups outside of the white race to be less intelligent and inferior. This erroneous and bigoted mentality will lead to their undoing one day.

I do not like Iran having nuclear bombs no more than I like North Korean having nuclear missiles. But Russia has such weaponry and the U.S. has such weaponry, as well other countries. At what point will the realization hit that other developed countries lacking nuclear missiles will eventually strive to develop such weaponry? It is rather audacious to assert on an international scale only a few select countries in the entire world are allowed to have nuclear weapons. Of course, those countries admonished through diplomacy, sanctions, or a military attack will surely resent it. I confess, I am more afraid about our unhinged president with the power to obliterate the world, than I am of these other nations.

He felt emasculated by June 14, and he jumped into the arena with his superman cape--looking like a stanky decrepit sock long overdue for washing.  Along side with Trump's incompetent motley crew: Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, and J.D. Vance, we can rest assured we are most screwed. I am awaiting Vladimir Putin's response, which is not going to be a complacent one. Israel attacked Iran alone at first, and I personally feel we should had never entered into their fight with military power. Now, the Trump administration is urging peace with Iran while simultaneously making threats against the country for any retaliatory maneuver. What more could one expect.

The No Kings Protests

I am elated to see the amount of No Kings protests nationwide on June 14, 2025. It far exceeded my expectations, even manifesting in some of the most conservative states in the country. Meanwhile, on the same date, Donald Trump put on a spectacle to celebrate himself under the guise of honoring the US Army’s 250th anniversary with a military parade.

It is estimated that millions protested the Trump administration on June 14th, while a less than expected crowd attended Trump's celebration. Along the route of the parade, delusional and surely racist Trump supporters pepper lined heavily guarded streets. During the event, Trump's facial expressions would occasionally exhibited humiliation and disappointment. It can be tough thinking you are the greatest thing since sliced bread, only to find out people think you are a hell born maggot. His crowds were far from impressive in contrast to the No Kings protests in various cities. No doubt, the disparity between the events kept him up a few nights.

The No King protests gives me hope for our country; and the overwhelming majority makeup of the crowds appeared white. I know a lot of blacks are deliberately sitting out from demonstrations, something I do not necessarily agree with--because the fight is just as much for our democracy as it for ourselves as blacks. The No Kings demonstrations were a protest against an authoritarian regime headed by a tyrant by the name of Donald J. Trump. It involved far more than just protesting ICE, tariffs, or racism; although many protesters may had been focused on a specific issue. For us blacks, racism has been a perpetual fight in this country since day one. 

It has been a bad week for the dufus. Juneteenth was yesterday, and I am sure Trump and Pete Hegseth pondered on how to get rid of the holiday, as they and Republicans continually strip away any hint of color anywhere. Surely, his dismal birthday celebration has taunted him, yet in the convoluted corridors of his narcissistic brain, he will rewrite the script on June 14th to appease himself. Yet we cannot let this racist society rewrite American history, which is a very high priority on their agenda.

The No Kings protests shows the discontent of the American people on a scale I have not seen for years. I hope the momentum builds, and I hope the non-caring Trump ass-kissing congressional Republicans see the writing on the wall. Americans must rise up and vote the Republicans out of their elected positions. This is the one way we can maintain our capitalistic nation and regain our democracy back, without a civil war or an overthrow of the government. I like our democracy, despite centuries of battling systemic racism. Blacks will as usual have to fight our own causes, but we are also want a democratic society--not a dictatorship.

The Clash Between Musk And Trump

It was only a matter of time before our least favorite rich and powerful narcissists would collide heads in an epic power struggle. This is actually old news now, but I am just getting around to blog on it. So much happens daily, as Donald Trump strives in controversy as bacteria does in a cesspool. Yet, for the brief span of their spat, I gained great pleasure and comic relief.

It all started when Elon Musk went into a tantrum on his social media platform, X, on June 3 tweeting "I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination." Musk's hissing was referring to the Republican's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act", which aggressively cuts many social programs, destroys Medicaid, and will offer significant tax breaks and implement policies to satisfy the wealthiest. Musk also tweeted a call for Americans to contact congressional members to voice a negative assessment of the bill. Musk would later tweet that without him, Trump would had lost the election, and later tweets "such ingratitude", a direct referenc to our 34 count felon president.

Consequently, after Musk's post, Trump would later state to reporters "“Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore.”  There was a lot of back and forth between the two powerful white supremacists. Way to much to include all in this post. He would later post on Truth Social the following:

And drum roll please... now the big gun, which Democrats and most Independents already had known for months, if not years:

 

There were allegations long before Elon Musk posted this tweet on Trump mentioned in the Jeffrey Epstein files. Only the Republicans discounts the common knowledge that Donald Trump is a "grab them by the p***y" pervert; with allegations long ago of molesting a 13 year old girl and making threats towards her and her family. Holier than thou Pam Bondi and others have taken great strides to protect their white savior-- over and above what is right and just in this world. These people would sell their children and their grandparents to an incinerator, if it got them what they wanted. No morals, 100% corrupt, and filled with hatred.

After the Epstein post, Trump sh*tted deep into his britches. He later threatens to dismantle government contracts between Musk. Musk calculates in his greedy pathetic head, perhaps its not worth it after all. He apologizes to Trump, and says perhaps he went to far. 'Let's not be hasty', he muses. Why do these people remind me of Charles Dickens' fictional character Ebenezer Scrooge?  One thing about it, I doubt any spirit would waste time visiting them. 

Musk deletes some of his tweets, including the one calling for Trump's impeachment and the Epstein files. I guess we are now supposed to pretend none of this ever happened. 

Oh me, oh my, did it ever send the GOP Republicans into a tizzy. All are knee knocking scared of Trump and Musk, and whatever would the electorate say? If I say I am for Musk, MAGAs would say why not for Trump? And if I say, I am for Trump, MAGAs would say, why not for Musk? Isn't it pathetic, such a mental dilemma would keep them from sleeping, but not denying healthcare to millions of Americans by destroying Medicaid. Nor would closing nursing homes and sending elderly and frail people into the street. Nor would killing a now estimated 300,000 people by destroying the USAID program--a total which is sure to climb. 

However do these people live with themselves?

Trump Travel Ban Against Darker Countries

The United States 34 count felon president has implemented a travel ban towards 12 non-white countries. The implications and motivations are quite obvious: make America white again and get people of color restricted, and in the future--out from United States soil. The ban went into effect on June 9, 2025.

The racist tyrant, along with hissing Steve Miller and other like minded white supremacists have targeted these countries based on color. The dumb leader of the White House, known as our president quipped regarding the ban "The recent terror attack in Boulder, Colorado has underscored the extreme dangers posed to our country by the entry of foreign nationals who are not properly vetted, as well as those who come here as temporary visitors and overstay their visas." However, as most every knows the perpetrator of the attack in Boulder was a man from Egypt, which is not on the list of banned countries. The Trump administration does not care how ridiculous a manner they spin a story.

The countries are as follows: Afghanistan, Sudan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, and Yemen. Several other countries face restrictions on travel.

The ban is plain and clear, 'no black people, no brown people allowed here'.  The relentless manifestation of Republican policies to ensure whiteness in the United States is another reason why I am perplexed at the apathy from blacks in this country.  Too many black people take no interest in what is politically happening here, nor is such apathy just a black problem. Apathy helped Trump win the White House across various demographic lines. I will have more to say on apathy in another post in the future.

Terrorism can come from anywhere. We have a group of terrorist thugs in the White House, who dress themselves in golden terminology, and detain small children by gracing their rotten presence in grades schools. Their name is ICE. We have seen in our history, terrorist thugs like Timothy McVeigh, who Trump once considered pardoning for bombing the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City after killing 168 people. What is fragmenting national security is actually within our own borders: including the weaponization of a Gestapo organization known as ICE, and presidential actions such as Trump deploying the National Guard and utilizing Marines for what has been primarily peaceful demonstrations. They have already fired tear gas into crowds of peaceful protesters, despite some protests having absolutely no incident which could be characterized as law breaking.

Our biggest threat is a domestic one, and banning people from other nations would do very little to stop international terrorism in my opinion. I truly believe Trump's actions will incite terrorist's plots, and increase the possibility of lone wolf attacks on our soil.  People from European and Asian countries do not have to get a visa for business or vacationing. This travel ban is about race.

Precursor to Martial Law In The U.S.

On June 7, Trump deployed the National Guard to encounter protesters outside a Home Depot, who were protesting ICE. Apparently, ICE arrived at the store, and began to detain undocumented workers for deportation. A major union leader, David Huerta, was also arrested in Los Angeles on June 6 for protesting Trump/ICE. This past week, ICE carried out several operations to deport individuals. ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) has become a modern form of the Gestapo, reminiscent of Nazi Germany. During the protest, Huerta was knocked down and injured by the ICE agents, no doubt masked up to hide their identity. He had to be hospitalized.

My mind cannot help picture masked ISIS members and their videos. Hidden, ruthless, unethical, brutal, and illegal as hell. For sure, ISIS and ICE are radicalized with hate.

Unfortunately, there is a constitutional law known as The Insurrection Act passed sometime in the 1870's. It gives power to the president to utilize armed forces and military to squash what may be perceived as an uprising against our government, including a peceived insurrection and civil unrest. Now one can readily see how Donald Trump, who ironically led an insurrection in our state capital on January 6, 2021, can misuse such a law. Hence, the use of the National Guard in the Los Angeles protests against ICE and the Trump regime.

So then, what would be the next step by our criminal president, after Trump exercises the Insurrection Act? It could be the first steps toward martial law, and the deranged Trump axe can be lowered any day now. We need not continue to debate as to whether the United States is an authoritarian government. It is here, live and in living color.

Huertta made a poignant statement through the Service Employees International Union,  for which he serves as president: "“What happened to me is not about me; This is about something much bigger. This is about how we as a community stand together and resist the injustice that’s happening. Hard-working people, and members of our family and our community, are being treated like criminals. We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice. And we all have to stand on the right side of justice.”

I have to break from some of my brethren here, I do not feel like pointing my finger to cluck FAFO, because such measures by a rogue administration will likely spread to whomever this tyrant chooses to do so--including black people. In fact, all people. 

We already know Trump previously "employed" the National Guard against Black Lives Matter protesters during some of the George Floyd protests. Black people, prepare yourself, for we will likely face such again. And do not assume out of sight, out of mind is going to work with this white supremacist regime.

The Trump Administration has taken many steps to diminish voting rights, civil rights, health care, and to segregate schools again. They have dismantled D.E.I. programs and initiatives across government and higher institutions, and have threatened private businesses even absent of having government contracts. Project 2025 and Trump's executive orders  has greatly weaken the judicial and legislative branches of government, while broadening Trump's executive powers. 

Authoritarianism is here. I don't care if congressional members meet and debate, and play dress up at the Capital--it's become a grand illusion of sorts. Congress has become impotent with fear and white supremacist loyalty. Democrats are outnumbered, and lack organization to engage in fight, save a few Democratic senators and representatives. Our Supreme Court is greatly corrupt, with six judges saying be damn our Constitution by constantly siding with our dictator, Donald Trump. What we are witnessing in our country today could not had happen without the current Supreme Court, which has become a corrupt entity composed of far right conservative judges packed by Donald Trump.

Some of you black folks may think you can stay home and watch it all on television. It is not going to work that way, because I am convinced, they will come after us, even in our own homes. DOGE, along with the Supreme Court's recent blessing, has access to all our private information within the Department of Social Security. And I fully expect us to be singled out, like they are singling out Hispanics and internationals. 

The time to organize and prepare is now. The time to read and watch news is now. Apathy is going to blindside many people, as a great tumultuous period is approaching us. Our lives are going to be assaulted in many directions, like many lives are being catapulted into a chaotic nightmare already. Rough times are ahead, but for black people, it is not our first rodeo. Heck, we never got to leave the bull in the first place, for even before a black person is born, we're fighting racism and for our existence in this country.

I fully recognize one of the major components of Donald's Trump play book is to invoke fear. Fear is his strategy to control the masses. But do not fear, fight the regime, because after all, we have no choice. Call representatives, engage in peaceful protests, write articles, sign petitions, vote, and yes, even pray.

I personally do not think we should isolate ourselves from other anti-Trump organizations, just because some are of another race or others didn't give a damn about black people. We already know many never cared about the plights of blacks in the U.S. when they voted for Trump, nor ever assisted us in our fight against racism. Therefore, use these people, with the lens that you see them for what they are--possibly treacherous, possibly racist; yet in the end, you wont be fooled. We need the numbers, and we need political action.  We cannot separate ourselves from our black causes, nor can we separate ourselves from the fact we want a democratic society--not an authoritarian government. Additionally, there is a danger in thinking all in one race think a certain way. Therefore, unity in this battle is essential, so we can get back our democracy.

Hate Crime In Boulder--Individuals Versus Groups

Looking at the recent hate crime in Boulder Colorado, where Mohamed Sabry Soliman threw two Molotov cocktails at a group comprised of Jews, it makes me ponder the indifference we see toward domestic groups long dismissed to be terrorist or hate organizations. What Soliman did was hateful, and inexcusable--do not get me wrong. As he threw the cocktails, he was yelling "Free Palestine".  Thankfully the man was arrested, and is currently facing charges.

Ironically, the Trump administration is displaying an uproar over the crime by Soliman who happens to be from Egypt, however when a collaboration between U.S. white nationalist leaders to form a "Unite the Right" rally in 2017 to proclaim white power in Charlottesville, North Carolina, the Trump Administration saw it much differently. According to our felon president, there were "nice people on both sides". A woman lost her life that day, Heather Heyer, as a white nationalist drove his car through a crowd of counterprotesters.

Most of our domestic white nationalists groups including the Ku Klux Klan, neo-nazi groups, skinheads, The Alternative Right groups,  and so forth hate Jews.  Is it not interesting groups such as the Klan or neo-Nazi organization plagued with violent histories and behaviors towards blacks are never classified as terrorist organizations? The reason why they are not deemed to be violent or terrorist groups is because the United States is a very racist society. White supremacy has always been an underlying current since the establishment of this country which implemented warfare against the indigenous people and the enslavement of Africans. 

However, our American society, which has been controlled by whites for several centuries always assert the citizen's right to free speech when it comes to blacks and other minorities being persecuted. Nevertheless, the white supremacist Trump administration wants to now make exceptions regarding free speech as well as freedom of the press. 

The Department of Homeland Security claims to be "cracking" down on student protesters--particularly non-white students, a significant segment are international students. Now the Trump administration is spinning the narrative that people vocalizing opposition to Israel regarding the war in Gaza are advocates for terrorism and pose a risk to the United States. 

Myself, I concur with Israel decision to launch a military offensive after Hamas attack Israel on October 7, 2023, but Israel's conduct in this war has been nothing short of egregious. I understand their position to dismantle Hamas. Most of the student protests across this nation involved far more than simply a political divide regarding Israel and Gaza; it involved a focus on Israel's questionable conduct in the war. Should not students have the right to vocalize such in protest?

I do not advocate producing a threatening environment such as throwing out hateful speech as to express the annihilation of a race or a group based on religion. We saw this recently with a group of neo-Nazis rallying in Lincoln Heights.  Yet public behavior like this has been acceptable for whites expressing hate towards black for decades, going back to the days of the institution of slavery. America has a history of hate oriented organizations burning crosses in yards of black families, lynching black people including children; and some of the same groups still exist today and are not considered terrorist organizations. Their objectives are to evoke terror and maintain white dominance.

I not only want to point out the hypocrisy of the Trump Administration and his racist minions. I want to point out the hypocrisy of our American society, and how systemic racist is upheld in the United States and indeed, protected by laws to serve the white majority. 

All, of this started long before bloated Trump arrived on the scene, and Russell Vought and other Project 2025 players plotted out a schemata to maintain white control. The making of what we are witnessing today has spanned for decades, encompassing diabolical decision making and manipulation designed to effect non whites. Because whites saw the gains being made by other races; fear set in and the "great replacement theory" evolved. 

But I must say, Donald Trump cares little about anything other than himself and his self glory. Yet he loves his role as the "great white savior" and he himself, declared himself as the "chosen one".

There is another example of hypocrisy exhibited by trump administration here--the fact that a significant portion of his MAGA supporters are anti-Semitic. They hate Jews, Blacks, Muslims, gays, Hispanics--anything that is not white. Most of the declared white supremacist organizations hate Jewish people and many deny the Holocaust til this day.

Regarding the attack committed by Mohamed Sabry Soliman on June 1, 2025, the people he threw the Molotov cocktails at were a group devoted to gaining exposure for the Israeli  hostages. It was a worthy cause to organize around, and the group's primary goal is to focus on getting the hostages back home. They have declared themselves to be a non-political group, from what I have read about it.  It is very evident from this tragic event, the attack was an anti-Semitic, a hate crime. I am reading online Soliman has been slapped with attempted murder charges, and this seems fitting.

We are treading on dangerous, reckless ground because the Trump administration considers student protests on campus to be supporting terrorism when people have different perspectives on the Israeli Gaza war as opposed to his own ideology. People have a right to a difference of opinion, but not to harass or terrorize other groups based on race or religion. Yet our own government is doing just this by targeting minorities with various tactics by using ICE and deliberately designing government policies so as to negatively effect specific minority communities. It is a handy excuse to get rid of non-whites too--after all, isn't that what it is all about? 

Doomsday President In Parallel Universe

Well, the White House nut case is at again. I could not refrain blogging on this one; Trump is posting on Truth Social that President Joe Biden may had died in 2020 due to the circulation of a MAGA conspiracy theory. He further theorizes all of the Democrats and most of Americans were fooled by a clone setup to substitute for the human Biden--in essence, a robot possibly took his place. This same purported robot sadly would be diagnosed with cancer in the year 2025? This is sheer lunacy on steroids.  Our presidential con certainly knows how to yank the chains of his MAGA supporters to his benefit.

What is so disturbing is how many MAGA fools will fall for this latest fabrication by  conspiracy theorists.  Similar to how MAGA fell for the lie purporting Lysol and bleach would stop Covid-19. After Trump" deadly and faulty unsubstantiated assertions, there were multiple accounts of people following the 34 count felon statements who became ill. I know at least one case resulted in death, perhaps there are more fatalities. And his appointees watched on, and the Republican party did nothing. Trump will play the Biden clone theory totally to his benefit.

The Washington Post has asserted in a recent write up that our nit wit president has posted 2,262 times since his 2025 inauguration. This is what the man does, tweet and post all day and all night unless he is orchestrating an ambush on some world leader, or providing his signature on documents he is totally ignorant about. Face it, he does not have the intelligence to orchestrate most of the executive orders we have witnessed or to orchestrate the erosion of congressional powers as outlined in Project 2025.

All of this makes me think of a particular classic Star Trek plot. In the episode entitled the Doomsday Machine, Commodore Matt Decker assumes command on the Enterprise, as Captain Kirk tries to effect repairs on Decker's ship which was attacked by a robotic weapon created centuries back in the past. Decker is determined to defeat this massive weapon of destruction. At some point Spock points out the Enterprise could not possible win with his proposed strategy, and declares Decker should be certified unfit for command. However, such an action would require Dr. McCoy's authorization, but at this point in the episode, McCoy lacked evidence and documentation. Later, Decker is removed from duty, based on continuance of his irrational decision making; he taking measures to subject the Enterprise to a futile suicidal action in a military maneuver.

We got a crazed lunatic sitting in our presidential office, Donald J. Trump, playing on gullible (stupid) people's fears left and right. We have all the evidence and documentation one could ever dream of to certified this man as a lunatic con and a incompetent leader. Yet, this same man is now spreading the notion a robot set in the White House as president from 2020 to 2024! And if Trump were impeached (and he should be) the baton would be handed over to J.D. Vance.  We would therefore have another lunatic sitting in the White House, as both Trump and Vance claimed Haitian immigrants were eating dogs and cats. There is all kinds of evidence on Vance's crazy mentality as well. Then look at the totally of his cabinet and administrative picks. It is absolutely surreal!

A MSNBC News article raised a valid and interesting point about all the posts Trump has made online: "Trump is publishing his stream-of-consciousness statements primarily on his own social media platform, Truth Social, in which he owns billions of dollars’ worth of shares. Incessantly posting pushes the public and the media to join the platform to keep abreast of the president’s announcements, boosting the company’s value and enriching him. He has an incentive to post for the sake of posting, to maintain a constant buzz around his platform and keep his media business in the news and at the center of the culture."

At what point is enough is enough? When Elon Musk declares it? No, when the American people get fed up with him and their elected Congressional leaders. It is truly unsettling-- our increasingly senile President has the authority to push the red button and bring our country and the world into a nuclear catastrophe. At some point, this madness must end. 

The Dismissal of Carla Hayden And Other Blacks

 As most know by now, thirty-four count felon Donald Trump fired Carla Hayden who headed the Library of Congress in Washington. Conflicting stories have arose regarding her dismissal: with some media outlets reporting her termination was based on the library acquiring LGBTQ material, yet others report her support of  diversity, equity and inclusion (D.E.I.) initiatives as the cause. Carla Hayden is a black woman, and I am quite sure this was grievous to Trump administrators, and our racist felon and chief. I fully imagine all the reasons stated above are the major reasons Carla Hayden was targeted.

Any black person in a position of power within our current government is viewed as an offense to the Trump administration, which is always proclaiming "reverse discrimination". The Republican party has made a great effort to discredit the contributions of blacks in highly visible positions, and to apply a "negative" connotation of D.E.I. hire, absent of an individual's merit or proven abilities. We saw a demonstration of this mentality when bourbon drenched Pete Hegseth ordered the removal of all historical figures which were black from the Pentagon archives, government websites and military materials. We saw more of such racist actions when Trump fired the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force General C.Q. Brown. 

Trump is stomping all over our civil liberties, including freedom of speech, freedom to have different ideologies, and diversity in the workforce. We have seen this administration target agencies solely based on ideological differences held by people in important or influential positions.

Back to Carla Hayden. Pseudo Christian, Karoline Leavitt, who never misses an opportunity to display a cross around her racist neck said in a bonkers press conference."There were quite concerning things that she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children". In a most distasteful and contemporaneous manner, Hayden received notification of termination via email. What a class act. So not.

It was an awesome achievement for Carla Hayden to be appointed as head Librarian in 2016, and she accomplished a great deal for the Library of Congress. What is furthermore troubling, we can likely expect schools and libraries across the nation to be targeted--solely because of ideological differences between the white supremacist Trump & Elon Musk Republicans. Their racism is undeniably blatant, yet accepted by most of the Republican electorate, and all of the Republican House and Senate. 

Trump will endeavor to silence his critiques, as his comrade in white supremacy Elon Musk. Musk has demonstrated his sick ire by yanking down Twitter accounts for anyone who criticizes him or Tesla. And do not think for a moment Elon Musk is out of the picture, he has simply shrunk back into the shadows, much like a rabid racist bat. Bruce Springsteen, and other outspoken people will be targeted. 

Folks, we are in trouble. Black or white, Asian or Native--we are in trouble. This country was founded on a principle that Americans people can have different religions, and has always advocated for separation of church and state. Authoritarianism seeks to silence people with different ideologies in opposition to those which exercise and maintain power. What we are witnessing in United States is the type of political abuse we see in other nations headed by dictators: imprisoning people for expressing different political views, denying due process, and totally disregarding the rule of law. This is what America has become, and it is truly a sad hard fact.

For those running from what is happening in the U.S., or simply waiting for others to fight for your rights, the day is coming when you are going to get blindsided.  All the Netflix you watch is not going to save you, when the Gestapo comes calling at your door. We, as a people, better gear up for the battle ahead, as our democracy has crumbled. It is more than Trump, it is about the people who put him in power. And there are millions of them. Millions.

Brief Update

 A lot has been going on, so I have not been posting as much due to MANY problems currently bombarding me, including internet access. Hopefully I will be back soon to posting more on a regular basis, not that it really matters as Google completely disses my blog. So far only one url was claimed to be indexed, yet my Google search console declares "0 indexed pages". Google apparently owns everything: televisions, smartphones and the internet. It needs to busted up like AT&T was in 1980's or was it 1990's for monopolizing communications. 

My hope is to post soon on the daily doses of racism and white nationalism the Trump administration continues to spew out; from firing Carla Hayden who headed the Library of Congress, to the Trump Musk presidential duo transporting White South Afrikaners to the United States, while rejecting ANYONE non-white seeking a better life in this country.  Welcome to Nazi Germany for history indeed repeats itself.

Incredibly, the thug president constantly defies court orders, and now wants to arrest judges who not comply with his authoritarianism. When will it all stop? 

Continue to write your congressional leaders, sign petitions, protest, and boycott. The Republican party will never stand up to Trump, so the people must!

Tyre Nichols- Cops Found Not Guilty

This is absolutely unbelievable and abhorrent, that the Memphis police officers participating in the beating of Tyre Nichols have been found not guilty. It is my understanding, this jury was completely composed of white people. Perhaps they view Tyre as just "another black person", a sad current we see much too often. 

The evidence is undeniable--it is all on tape, and the police video is very hard to watch. I could not believe the cruelty and vicious brutality we all saw on the video when it was released. There was no justice present in this verdict. 

There is a power tripping mentality penetrating the minds of all cops, and even black cops. The names of the three men are  Demetrius Haley, Tadarrius Bean, and Justin Smith.

NPR reports "Nichols' family left the courtroom without speaking to the media after the verdict. They spoke briefly with Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy, who said they were "devastated" and "outraged."

Trump has basically given free reign to rogue cops, and we can only expect to see more accounts of excessive force against U.S. citizens. We are talking about a president who does not believe in due process, so we certainly cannot expect a reasonable and fair assessment of criminal behavior from a convicted dictator. And unfortunately, the Department of Justice will offer no recourse to Tyre Nichols family.

The blood of so many black people murdered in this country cries out from the ground. It breaks my heart that so many cries go unheard. Tyre Nichols was murdered by his own people, black people, yet I cannot help but think racism plays a role in this verdict. A prime example of systemic racism where one must look beyond the surface, and peel back the layers.

Boycotting Anti-DEI Businesses

 I applaud the efforts by minorities and others to boycott the businesses which immediately pulled back DEI initiatives. Walmart, Target, Amazon are some of the major companies which pulled back DEI programs at Donald Trump's beck and call. Walmart actually stopped their DEI hiring practices a month before the election. I guess the CEO and no doubt its mostly white and male corporate board could not contain themselves, anticipating the black woman would not win. Unfortunately, as we all know, Kamala Harris lost. 

I am finding boycotting not as hard as I thought it would be. Walmart which was once a weekly thing with me is not missed at all. Their prices were too high anyway. Instead, I now shop at smaller businesses. Now consider, if such small businesses support Trump, those companies still lack the power and influence as the aforementioned. Therefore, it is a better strategy to put more money into the smaller businesses which have less lobbying pull.

There are very few Targets where I live, and I rarely shop there anyway. Sustaining from Amazon has been the hardest for me, yet I can find a lot of things on Ebay now to meet my needs. I am not sure where corporate Ebay stood with Trump, but most of the sellers on its platform are small businesses or simply individuals trying to make a living.

Please note the slap happy tariffs Trump is implementing are going to effect the "big three" (Walmart, Target, and Amazon) tremendously, and a significant portion of the businesses across the United States. Prices are going to skyrocket soon. Stock up at these smaller business while you can because we are going to get hit with a punch of low supply and high demand. Several economists are predicting smaller businesses relying on imported goods will face bankruptcy and closures.

I have no problem shopping smaller grocery stores for food supplies as opposed to Walmart. Aldi stores are a good candidate to transfer over your food purchases. I used to go to McDonalds regularly, but that immediately ended right after election. Do I miss McDonalds? Not at all, for it was always about convenience for me, and never really its food--save maybe a Big Mac. 

However, there are many people who are disabled, or who may be living in a rural community; where they have no choice but to go to a Walmart or Target. Those in such a predicament with limited options have to do what they must. In such situations purchasing from the big three is completely understandable. The best strategy is if you must meet your basic needs through the monopolies, go to other businesses for your non-basic needs: such as makeup, hair products, etc. Every person's situation is different, but in the end, the key is to buy less. Particularly in these trying times.

And without further ado, I have a compilation of pro-Trump businesses which donated to the conman's campaign below. I am sure there are many other business out there worthy of mention here, but for now, this is just a basic list of well known companies.

Black Farmers Targeted By Racists

 This is such a sad story, and a truly distressing video. It reminds me of some of the events my family encountered when growing up in a rural area. My father was a black farmer, with a variety of livestock; including cows, pigs, and chickens. One day, for no good reason, white people who were associated with the Klan, complained about my father's pigs not having an "electrified" fence around them. Well, guess what? No one in our county had electrified fences around their hogs! They deliberately targeted him to hurt his business. The authorities and city sided with the racist instigators (being racist themselves), and my dad had to get rid of his pigs, which had proven profitable to our family for years. Those white people could not stand to see a black man doing well. Not that our family was ever wealthy, not even middle class, but we had food, shelter, and what racists truly hate--we had property with livestock.

This video, from the "Black Discoveries" Youtube channel is a truly an example of how racism is alive and well in the United States. Note how the authorities turned a deaf ear to the black farmers featured in it as they did to my family almost 50 years ago. Now take a look to our Department of Justice today--Pam Bondi is a character from the Batman series, amidst of all the other Gotham City characters. Given the Trump Administration, blacks cannot expect any help from DOJ. No group of color can expect help from the DOJ. I suggest for victims of racism where local authorities are not doing their jobs, to contact the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for advice, and to also aid their efforts in charting hate crimes. And hopefully, doing so will grant further exposure as to the many ways blacks are targeted in this country.

Byron Donalds, Hatred Goes To Town Hall

 Bryon Donalds, who will be running for governor, recently presented himself to a town hall meeting with his white face on, yet somehow he leaves it black. Doubting afterwards, he thinks to himself, is this blackness ever going to come off me?

So far, MAGA bleaching creams have not worked, and self-hatred exercises have strengthened him tremendously. Oh well. All in a days work. Yet, he lays to sleep, knowing in the morning when he shaves, a black face will reflect back in the mirror. And like Richard Kimble, he finds himself on the run forever.

Wake Up Black America

I am tired of hearing and reading suggestions from black U.S. citizens advising black people to "sit out", to do nothing, "let white people handle it" regarding the second Trump Administration. In my opinion, those touting this worthless strategy cannot be bothered, yet they enjoy the privileges of blacks who fought hard to gain rights so many black Americans have become accustomed to. The second camp of thought offers a more "legitimate" reason-- fear of martial law. Marital law is going to come anyway, because history is repeating itself before our very eyes with lightening speed. Nazi Germany is here, in America. The white nationalist agenda is being executed by the Trump Administration with great speed.

We are in trouble as a people, whether you know it or not. Black people, you cannot afford to sit in your homes, complacent and content to block everything out in the news.I am absolutely convinced, along with some others, that the white supremacist sitting in our presidential office and his hate crazed minions will do everything in their power to destroy us, including executing deportations. Yes, I do recognize these hate mongers are using fear tactics, but their tactics have manifested into real physical actions which are growing in momentum by the day. The white nationalist's goal is to replace our democracy with a new form of government, controlled by wealthy whites (as if wealthy whites were not already controlling our former democratic state) and to replace our democracy with a new authoritarian government with deliberate intention. Project 2025 demonstrates the shaping of this new form o government, save the complete disregard of the rule of law, yet was ignored and dismissed by millions of Americans.

The Trump Administration upon taking office in 2025 has operated like a weapon of mass destruction upon minorities, the economy; and it immediately set out to destroy international relationships: Canada, Mexico, Ukraine, and more.  Reckless tariffs have been implemented against other countries, worldwide, save Russia. The economy is significantly worse.

This week we have seen the erosion of the Supreme Court on display as Trump rejects its ruling directing the retrieval an innocent man deported by ICE, who was sent to an El Salvadorian prison. Now, some white people, including lawyers, even a doctor, have been getting threatening email messages from the Department of Homeland Security demanding they leave the country immediately! These emails are not hoaxes--these are actually government emails. Black people too may eventually receive a such emails, demanding us to leave. Read on.

Note this past week, the Trump Administration has again directed its focus towards the contrived white supremacist issue of "birthright citizenship". A lot of blacks ignore this, thinking this concerns only immigrants. It is a "Pandora's box", as the Trump agenda will eventually seek to make this issue applicable to descendants of slaves.  There are some white supremacists hissing black Americans are not really citizens, because their descendants were considered property own by white slave owners, therefore blacks in our country should not be classified as United States citizens. I do advise my people, to carry around a notarized copy of a birth certificate or passport, for the day is fast approaching we may likely need to produce it to ICE when they come to harass us. And sadly, it may not prove to be sufficient.

People are being deported without due process to an El Salvadorian prison by the Department of Homeland Security through ICE. A few months ago, I watched a video of a black man jogging down a street, when ICE suddenly approaches him asserting he was an illegal immigrant and attempted to take him into custody. There are people who have produced documents demonstrating citizenship, yet ICE dismissed their documentation and proceeded to arrest the person. Trump and his goon squad (Gestapo) are disregarding the rule of law in this country, and this is happening every day in the United States.

We must connect as a people, we must organize, and brace ourselves for what is coming. Bullsh*t like sitting at home and ignoring everything is not going to help you when the Trump squads come busting through your door in the middle of the night. This is happening now, and it is reminiscent of Nazi Germany. I am convinced one of the goals of the Trump Administration and his white nationalist oligarchs is to "purge" this country of the "undesirables", that is people of color and the frail--which they consider dispensable and a liability. It is the same contemptuous spirit which infested the Nazis. 

If you remain complacent, if you remain ignorant of what is happening in this country, you are going to get blindsided. Whether you choose to resist now or not resist, will not keep Trump from misusing his executive powers or prevent his forces to come after us based on our race. Therefore, is not the logical course of action to resist? If we form a collective, if the masses unite, we will prevail. It is going to be a long battle ahead. This is truly an "all hands on deck" moment in black America.  Prepare yourselves. Inform yourselves. Unite. Take action. 

Will Our Laws Be Enforced?

 Since Donald Trump's second administration, a litany of rogue executive orders have emerged--one after another. Most of these orders are unconstitutional because they are devoid of Congressional approval. Indeed, Trump has defied federal judges and even a recent Supreme Court decision to return back a man known as Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador. No efforts have been made to return this innocent man back to the United States. But, after all, he is not white, and we are dealing with a racist president and his very racist administration.

After Elon Musk, under guise of the non-governmental entity known as DOGE gained access to the Treasury department; Democratic leaders including Maxine Waters protested outside the Department of Treasury Building. On February 4, 2025. Maxine Waters attempted to enter the Treasury Building and was prevented by one of Musk's goon bodyguards. Musk's bodyguard man had no legal authority to prevent her from entering this building. Where the hell is law enforcement? Besides, the marshalls Trump has appointed to protect Donald Trump at taxpayers expense. 

Congressional leaders on that day should had called local authorities and removed Musk's precious bodyguards who had NO legal authority whatsoever to prevent Congress members from entering the building. The scenario reminds me of some similar instances, where various law enforcement divisions collide amongst each other regarding jurisdiction. Elon Musk and his goons where actually trespassers. Where comes the idea if Trump issues an illegal decree if must be obeyed? Trump bestowed his "blessing" to an unqualified, unelected non-government, unvetted person to confiscate private Social Security data of U.S. citizens so Elon Musk can twist a convoluted narrative proclaiming fraud in the Social Security system. 

Yet, the Trump administration gets by with illegal activity all the time. Who is going to hold Donald Trump and Elon Musk accountable to our laws?  Trump has become a law all until himself. We now have federal laws which are not being enforced by law enforcement, as well as local laws. We clearly witnessed a trespasser named Elon Musk enter the federal Treasury building and hack into the private data on millions of Americans, only to get by with criminal activity.

When are these people going to be arrested for violating the law? It is absolutely imperative for Congress to put their foot down and declared to our felon president he is not above the law, nor can he operate solely through the executive branch. As president, Trump SHOULD be subjected to our Constitutional system of checks and balances, which require joint operation between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. THIS HAS NOT BEEN HAPPENING! One of the roads to establishing a dictatorship is invoking chaos. And this has been a major strategy of Trump's administration from day one. It is all part of his goal to establish complete control of our government. 

The enforcement of our local, state and federal laws must be executed towards Trump, Musk-- just as it is enforced to us mere mortals. But the Supreme Court made our dictator virtually untouchable. The administration and its privileged counterparts constitute an oligarchy which has gotten free reign to violate all the laws their evil hearts desire. Local law enforcement should had prevented Musk and his goons from entering the Department of Treasury building. And most certainly, the bodyguard preventing Maxine Waters should had been arrested. Indeed, Musk and his entire crew should had been arrested.

If Trump violates the Supreme Court order to return Mr. Garcia back to the United States, erroneously charged because of his skin color in the first place, what will happen next? Ironically, the very same judicial institution spearheaded by Trump champion, Chief Justice John Roberts, is the very institution which rescued the 34 count felon president declaring he could run in the presidential election of 2024. It is the very same institution which gave Donald Trump blanket immunity from prosecution of criminal acts on July 1, 2024. Trump by all indications is defying the Supreme Courts decision that Kilmar Abrego Garcia must be returned to the United States.

All of these people (judicial and legislative) are out of jobs-- they just do not know it yet. The Supreme Court, the legislative branch, and federal and local judicial branches are becoming symbolic figures and abstract concepts. Why? Because we no longer have a democracy, but an authoritarian government.

If we give this evident oligarchy free reign, our system will continue to erode into further decay. So, when is this nation going to stop giving this rogue administration free reign? It is truly up to the American people to stop this dictatorship. The Republican Party should stand up for America and call for impeachment of this president; but they will turn a blind eye to Trump's defiance to the Supreme Court. Our democratic system has died.

Bus Eight

 

I grew up in a small southern town. In the 1960's, as a child in grade school I rode a school bus every morning from home and every afternoon, my siblings and I were dropped off near my home. My black bus driver was a rather "distant" bus driver, one who didn't prefer to interact with kids. Although schools had become recently integrated, my country route school bus was segregated into two factions: white children in the front, black children in the back. It was an unspoken rule, neither groups by race questioned it. 

Racial tension and friction between the riders were a mainstay, with disputes and physical fighting occurring almost daily. The bus driver, although aloof and a bit mean, allowed "certain" fights to occur. Typically, white children would raise up windows on purpose--sneering and snickering while gazing at us, and the air, sometimes quite cold, would harshly hit the children (almost all black) in the back of the bus. My siblings and I, along with other riders (black children who were are also neighbors) would generally have a self-appointed volunteer go up to the instigator and immediately confront the kid. Racial slurs such as "nigger" were common. Once such language flew out of the mouth of a white child, the game was over as a fight would ensue. 

Upon arrival at various schools, all the kids would get off the bus as if nothing happened and proceed to their classroom destinations. The bus carried kids from grade school to high school aged children. We black children were a camaraderie, yet all the black children were receptive to allowing certain white children, we deemed "cool" to sit with us. On the flip side, certain "black" children, once they befriended a white child, were allowed to sit in the front seats, although the black child was still subjected to racial attacks at times by hostile white kids.

Living in an integrated rural area with houses spread far apart, my siblings and I had white neighborhood children we played with all the time. These children turned to be some of out best friends growing up. We did not care what color they were, so I grew up color blind regarding friendships. Yet, at the same time, the school bus environment which would dictate terms, and when the morning bus came along weekdays, we would enter the bus again and adapt right back into a racial charged atmosphere. Our neighborhood white friends did not ride the bus however, and were transported by their parents to school.

I have to laugh at this, because I doubt white people can understand it--but most black people know a racist person before they even open up their mouth. We have an inner radar. We can encounter a bad attitude waitress at a diner saying snarky words which we determine to simply be a rude person, but another waitress elsewhere can utter the exact same words--yet our inner being immediately realizes we are dealing with a racist person. So its an erroneous assumption, to think black people are calling all whites racist. Yet, no one appreciates gaslighting, as we see the number of whites who supported our racist president, Donald Trump. Only black people who hate themselves and their blackness, believe otherwise. Self hatred.

What I find distressing, and believe me, I do not wear rose colored glasses, is that so many young black people are now tasting what we tasted--'celebrated' racism. Openly, unapologetic racism fueled by a white nationalist dictator has made racism acceptable, and even segregation again. 

Many people got arrested, gave up their lives to stop such oppression, and those gains are being reversed by the Trump Administration and his white nationalist supporters. Yet, and I will post more on this, I rode a bus to my grade school, and even I stood up to racist kids. I see and hear so many black people saying "I am not going to do anything", let "them" fight it out, yet all of these black enjoyed the fruits of other people's labors the past generations. Only to sit on their apathetic asses, or become so embittered they cannot see straight. We got to fight our black causes, but we also got to fight for our democratic causes as well. 

The Errors Of Black Disengagement

I just watched a video from the Defiant Lawyers Network regarding black disengagement, and it said all I had been intending to post about proposed strategies by some blacks advocating not to participate in protests.  Oh my, this is so good--this video just nails it!

We cannot sit idly by during these times. It is critical we organize and be visible. We cannot let our emotions over rule us to be punitive because majorities in certain racial groups voted for our white supremacist president. Keep in mind, as the video points out, black voter participation was weak in the 2024 election, therefore this also played a role in Trump being elected. Resignation and apathy will get black people nowhere.

We are in a fight for our survival here! It is imperative we resist this authoritarian government with all we got. History shows that whites have played a significant role in helping blacks, from the early abolitionists stance against slavery, the Civil Rights movements, and even until now. We must strategize and not separate, and tap into the power of utilizing numbers of citizens against the regime! Please, people, watch this video. I intend to post more on this subject in the future, but I surely will not handle this topic with the eloquence and temperament as Rev. Augustus Corbett. 

U.S. Tariffs Will Drive Up Prices

Everything has gone up in prices since MAGA's white nationalist 34 count felon president has once again, taken up residency in the White House. The eggs so cherished by MAGA, which vicariously "shielded" in closet racists for their white nationalist perspectives, has skyrocketed into a prices never before seen in U.S. history. It is only going to get worse.

Trump has been slapping tariffs on everything, and destroying "sacred" relationships between our allies on a daily basis. Last week, aluminum foil rose up at Dollar Tree from $1.25 to 1.75 due to tariffs place on aluminum a few weeks ago. Dollar Tree has a lot of imports from China, to the point the store should change its name. I doubt this store will stay in business, as it is loaded with Chinese imports. Canadians import fuel and a lot other goods to the United States, all which is resulting in higher prices for American consumers.

In response to the so called "Liberation Day", China retaliated the Trump tariffs imposed on its country, by imposing a 34% tariff on all imports from the United States, set to start on  April 10. It is being reported the only country spared a raise on tariffs imposed by the United States is Russia. Axios recently reported in a published Axios article "Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Axios Wednesday that Russia was left off because U.S. sanctions already "preclude any meaningful trade." However, the U.S. still trades more with Russia than with countries like Mauritius or Brunei that did make Trump's tariffs list."  Very interesting.  

Trump tariffs are being slapped on imported cars resulting simply in more bad news for American buyers. Keep in mind, Trump is proclaiming these tariffs will "direct" U.S. consumers to purchase American made cars, such as General Motors and Ford. However, keep in mind, so many of the parts in American made cars are produced in other countries, all facing outlandish tariffs put on by the Trump administration. The end result--higher prices for American made cars as well. 

Trump is destroying the American economy with the blessing of the Republican Party. And just as quickly, he is harming long standing relationships with our allied countries. On purpose. 

To what end is this? I have been contemplating this the past few weeks, and it makes little sense to run our country into the ground. One objective is clear: for the Trump administration to be NOT accountable to anything, not to the people nor to our laws. It is like he is deliberately trying to destroy this nation, to prop up a new form of government--which is already emerging thorough constant illegal abuse of his executive powers. Our system of check and balances is no good without enforcement from law and legal authorities.

The first couple of weeks in office, it was clear Trump and the Republican Party's Project 2025 mandate was prioritized to attack programs directed towards diversity. Hatred is their driving force, and their main priority is to diminish the power of people of color in the this country. After quickly destroying programs which help marginalized communities, the Trump administration turn to yield tariffs like a nut waving a reckless machete.  The stock market has been going crazy, with all time record lows. Food prices are at the highest then I have ever witnessed in my years of life. 

Americans, all prices are going to go up. Clothing, food, steel, construction materials, EVERYTHING. Trumps economic theorizing that raises tariffs will increase manufacturing and production in Uniteds States is faulty, and reckless--and is even dismissed by some conservative economists. American corporations learned long ago to exploit labor and production by utilizing workers overseas, where they could pay meager wages, with little or no benefits, enhancing maximization of their greedy profits. Consumers, particularly those in the poor, working, and lower middles classes will pull back from buying, simply because they have no choice. Food produced and cultivated here will also go up in price, mainly because of the same driving corporate greed we witnessed after Covid numbers dropped. Such food corporations will not miss to appear impacted by tariffs, even if they are relatively unscathed. Yet, some food costs will simply go up due to utilizing certain modes of packaging or materials used in production. 

Inevitably, the United States will have a greater gap between the "haves" and "have nots".

Is racial hate and white fear more important than democracy and having basic needs met such as food and shelter? Evidently, for many, it is more important than buying eggs, bread and having enough food for their families. The America of the past several decades is forever gone. Keep in mind, the rich will suffer no worry, including the wealthy Republican politicians so many MAGA voted for and revere. All they ever cared about was to get their votes from the electorate, yet some of these blind fools know this, yet continue to support such politicians. Hate is a powerful force.
