Trump Targets Protesters


Khalil, campus protester illegally targeted by Trump and Homeland Security

By now most have heard or read in the news about the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student activist who was instrumental in organizing protests directed towards Israel at Columbia University. Simply put, this is a tremendous violation of free speech and harassment against minorities.  Abruptly, one night sitting in his apartment, ICE ( Immigration and Customs Enforcement) storms in, and takes Khalil into custody. His crime? Speaking his mind. I do not necessarily agree with his stance, although I do share serious concerns about how Israel is conducting their war in Gaza. Yet, the green card possessing Khalil is considered a permanent resident of the United States and is married to 8 month pregnant wife who is a US citizen. 

The Trump administration is attempting to deport Khalil based on an assumption he is "leading activities aligned to Hamas".  Furthermore, the Department of Homeland Security continues by stating his arrest is part of Trump's executive order prohibiting Antisemitism. Seriously? You got Trump allies Elon Musk and Steve Bannon throwing off Nazi salutes for the nation and world to see, so what therefore do you think our racist rhetoric foul mouth president is made of?

Now another Columbia University student has been arrested on bogus charges occurring  March 5th, 2025, by the name of Yunseo Chung. Once again, because her view point differs from the Trump's administration concerning the war in Gaza.  Chung is a lawful permanent resident of the United States. This is what authoritarianism looks like. 

Now, another disconcerting development has emerged, disclosed in a published article today on the Associated Press website. Private groups skilled in facial recognition technology are being used to "identify" protesters, so that such information will be submitted to the Trump administration to target people for deportation. For their personal views and their right to protest! This is what has become of our American society. We are under a full fledged dictatorship and a total abuse of executive power like I have not seen.

I cannot help but say FAFO, but since this blog is rated PG, I will not spell out the acronym. In Dearborn Michigan, many of the American Palestinians threw their support behind Donald Trump, opposing Joe Biden's alliance with Israel. The strategy amongst a great number in their community was to vote against Kamala Harris in the presidential elections.  Others voted as independents, and some did not vote all (duh). Yet, both Biden and Harris were advocates for a two state solution.

What could had the U.S. Palestinians see behind Donald Trump's campaign promises? He never once said anything to indicate he wouldn't support Israel, particularly, considering some of his biggest supporters were white Christian evangelicals. Any one who voted for Donald Trump knew his character, knew he is a racist, is a misogynistic, hates gays, hates "foreigners",  and is just a mean and cruel man. Yet these same Christians, and many of the Dearborn Palestinians cast their ballots for Trump, and not for the black woman. 

Yet, regardless of his stance, unless this student was aiding or participating in a terrorist organization, there is no cause to arrest or deport Khalil. It is real apparent from October 7, 2023 that Hamas is indeed a terrorist organization. He has a right to express his opinion on the war, on what is occurring in Gaza, and a right to protest and speak out. He does not have a right to harass Jewish students, and I am not seeing any of that unless I missed it. Funny how the Trump administration didn't give a damn about the neo-Nazis demonstrating in Lincoln Heights, Ohio on February 7, 2025. But no brainer here, the protesters were white racists attempting to antagonize black residents in a predominately black area. Remember Charlottesville, were a woman who was a counter protester to a white nationalist demonstration was killed. Remember how Trump proclaimed that 'there are fine people on both sides. 

Because a person voices concerns on the conduct or cause of a war, does not make them a threat to our nation. The real threat is in the oval office, and his name is Elon Musk and Musk's side kick, Donald Trump. People should be able to peacefully protest without fear of retribution, and our democratic rights and privileges are quickly slipping away. If you value the laws of this nation, our constitution and our democracy, its time to rise up and meet the occasion.

Social Security Website Has Hours

 Yes, that's right. The Social Security Administration has hours. I went on its website a few days ago early in the morning, and behold, the damn thing was closed! Why would such a site limit hours? SSA employees are not required to immediately respond to something a person initiates on their website, such as requesting a replacement Social Security card, or change of address. 

Or, perhaps the approaching March 31, 2025 deadline requiring people to sign up for ID.me or login.gov requires some Republican tinkering. If SSA recipients do not sign up, the frail, the elderly, the disabled, and others will be required go to a SSA office in person. No matter how hard it is on the person. No matter how far as 47 Social Security offices are set to close.

social security administration website displays it hours,

And now we are hearing about the SSA website servers being overloaded and crashing from heavy traffic.  Hmm, cutting hours on a website will aid in crashes, as it funnels people onto the website within a confined set of hours.

SABOTAGE! I took a screenshot of their website hours to show a friend, now I want to show the hours to anyone who may happen to see my Google and Bing suppressed blog, despite the astronomical odds. A blog which has not been indexed in 2 months.

Sabotage.

Adding Update:

A quick update: The deadline to open a new online account has been extended from March 31 til April 14, 2025. Why isn't that just special and heartwarming? Lee Dudek decided to listen to their customers, and display a brief spurt of concern for the "to the country's vulnerable population". For two whole weeks!

Deep Fried Battered Teslas

Vandalism of Teslas

Shall we break out a sad violin, a drum cadence, or a howling electric guitar? Poor Teslas, fried and battered across the United States through acts of vandalism. Burned, smashed, kicked, singed, cracked, all kinds of abuse; ironically, its similar to what DOGE is doing to agencies and to people. Could it be poetic justice? Yet vandalism is a crime. Like systemic killing. Like deliberately starving people to death. Like deliberately preventing people from getting health care. Like denying education to deliberately impoverish certain groups of people based on racist ideologies. All of this has been happening through acts of vandalism by DOGE, Musk, and the side kick Trump administration. With a total disregard to our constitutional laws and our system of checks and balances. Little wonder some people are using vandalism as form of protesting.

MAGA protested at the Capital on January 6, 2021, at the beck and call of our current president who was a sore loser. The election was not stolen. Former President Joe Biden won it. Yet Trump deliberately rallied these people to come to the Capital, encouraging them to generate chaos. Six people died as a result of the events which occurred that day.  Unlike the acts of vandalism we have been witnessing in the news, January 6 was an attempted coup. Now the same conman occupies the Oval Office. Incredible. Trump is a symptom of a terrible disease called white nationalism.

Convicted felon Trump has characterized vandalizing Teslas as "domestic terrorism",  and to further churn out deep state propaganda; he implies these acts are financed by certain people which employ liberals to commit such acts.  Wow--how is that for a conspiracy theory? I wonder--could these mysterious employees be actually deep sea creatures which migrated under water from South Africa? Majorie Taylor Green would certain buy that one.

Should the acts of vandalism towards Teslas be considered as domestic terrorism? If that's the case, any of us mere mortals who get our property destroyed should be able to claim a "domestic terrorist" attacked our vehicle, and therefore demand a FBI investigation be conducted as Musk has requested.  Elon Musk is not the government, nor is he an government employee.  He is simply a race hating neo-Nazi who is turning the lives of people upside down in our nation. If anyone is a terrorist, it is this hate filled man, and he is truly an evil man. The January 6 insurrection on the Washington Capital was the very definition of insurrection and a form of domestic terrorism. And soon after taking office the second time, Trump quickly pardoned all the thugs who participated in the riotous encroachment upon the hallowed halls of our Capital Building.

Elon Musk stated in an interview he is shocked by the hatred and violence from the left" because of the desecration of Teslas. He further claims "I have never done anything harmful"..."I have only done productive things, this doesn't make sense". Stocks have been plummeting since the conning boy wonder infiltrated the government, and increasingly, into the private sector too, as we recently witnessed pulling a Gestapo move on the United States Institute of Peace, which is an independent agency. And here in lies another problem-- federal judges. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell, defended DOGE's intrusion into the organization, while saying she was offended by their actions. Bullcrap.

The whole of the Republican elected officials and most of the federal judges are scared of Trump and complicit in maintaining his illegal actions. Where is the enforcement of constitutional law? Even worse, many just simply concur with his philosophies. Where is the enforcement of local laws for that matter; because by all account by Elon Musk, his bodyguards, and DOGE Gestapo units have repeatedly violated a variety of laws: trespassing, breaking and entering, hacking and stealing personal information for their own benefit. Again, where the hell is law enforcement? Answer: Quaking in their boots and too afraid to enforce the law.

Rick Wilson, one of the co-founders of The Lincoln Project posted on Twitter (X) about Tesla and the losses on its stock prices, and got quickly banned by crybaby Elon Musk. So much for the South African champion of free speech. Just like Trump, the narcissist got his knickers wadded up. You can watch a video detailing this event by The Lincoln Project here

Recall, Elon Musk recently said an interview: “The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy.” Yet he goes into a tailspin, doing televised interviews and tweeting, cars on display upon White House greens, trying to generate sympathy and empathy for himself. With the measure you meet.... (Matthew 7:2).

Now, his cars are on a fire, and Musk has come come out quibbling about it. What for? Should we empathize, sympathize, or celebrate? Should we clang our glasses and make a toast, or should we weep tears for the Nazi devoid of a human conscious. A damn killer in my book, he is a weapon of destruction towards certain targeted groups of people. 

I do not support criminal behavior, but no, I will not be weeping.

Trump's Censorship of The Free Press

No speaking symbolized

Donald Trump reminds me of a school yard bully you would expect to encounter at a grade school. For one thing, he always tries to rule by fear and intimidation. Secondly, it doesn't take much to get his knickers wadded should any one dare correct him, or make a joke about him. Third, he does not like when journalists pose challenging questions he cannot answer. These behaviors are frequently repeated by our 34 count felon president; it is a perpetual problem for this moron on a daily basis.  

Donald Trump is preventing certain media organizations or reporters from attending White House press briefings. Reuters, the Associated Press, and Huffpost are just some of the major news organizations which are no longer allowed to grace press briefings by the new Trump Administration. Recently, the rouge administration announced which news organizations would be allowed to cover particular events--a highly selective process. Prohibiting certain media organizations is indeed censorship and it is highly characteristic of authoritarian governments like we see in China and Russia.

Trump's childish behavior and impish brain went into a tizzy because a reporter from the Associated Press refused to say "Gulf of America", as opposed to stating what world maps and our United States geographical maps have declared for years, "the Gulf of Mexico". For Trump, Gulf of Mexico sounds perhaps too "brown", no doubt for this seething racist. The Associated Press has filed a lawsuit, and I so hope they win it! The First Amendment guarantees "freedom of speech", a phrase you will often hear by Trump and Elon Musk while they hiss to "protect" their frequent tirades of racist rhetoric.

Should a reporter really want to make Trump sweat, ask the president and his motley crew questions about Russia. In 2018, the White House banned journalist Katlin Collins from CNN news from specific press conferences, after asking questions which were deemed "inappropriate". True to our president's character, the same formula of censoring journalists has followed again into his second administration. And media organizations are taking note of the ever increasing hostile climate exhibited towards journalists.

There is a real danger to this pattern, of dictating which news organizations and which particular journalists can, and more importantly, cannot cover press events and news conferences. In a most mysterious fashion, a reporter from TASS, a Russian news agency was present during the orchestrated debacle between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and J.D. Vance and Trump on February 28, 2025. Politco states in one article "“TASS was not on the approved list of media for today’s pool,” a White House official said. “As soon as it came to the attention of press office staff that he was in the Oval, he was escorted out by the Press Secretary. He is not on the approved list for the press conference.” 

Any news organization exposing elements contrary to Donald Trumps ideology, or appearing "critical" of his administration for simply stating the facts, will swiftly be characterized by Trump and his Republican allies as "fake news". Trump, on the surface, is always advocating for free speech, however, he attempts to stifle Freedom of the Press at his discretion. This is totally contradictory. Furthermore, he has continuously stoked coals among MAGA supporters by declaring the press as "enemy of the people". 

Trump has waged war through the courts, aiming his ire at CBS, ABC, and others. The president recently settled a lawsuit with ABC News, regarding a televised interview between George Stephanopoulos and Representative Nancy Mace. The segment which aired on ABC discussed elements of Eugene Caroll's successful civil suit concerning sexual assault and the dispute basically revolved around "semantics".  CBS News was also hit with a lawsuit because of a 60 Minutes interview which featured Kamala Harris.  After the episode aired, Donald Trump claimed the episode was edited to Harris's benefit. 

What I have noticed and so many other people as well; the major networks have become fearful (or perhaps biased) in reporting the ongoings of the Trump administration. Even before Trump won, people were noticing news worthy stories exposing some of Trump's outlandish statements were not being reported by the major networks. One event which stands salient in my mind is when Trump met with right wing Christian evangelicals and stated to the crowd "in four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote."

It is my opinion, the better sources for news are now actually on YouTube and other news websites, as opposed to ABC, CBS, NBC news. And its very obvious that MSNBC has a major shakeup going on, recently cutting several on air programs, all headed by hosts of color. A good deal of the decision making is apparently being influenced by corporate ownership of these stations. 

The things we are witnessing in the United States of America correspond to the activities of authoritarian governments. Trump, like other dictators such as Vladimir Putin of Russian and Kim Jong Un of North Korea, will take steps to keep tight reins on the media. We can only expect censorship and the stifling of the First Amendment privileges will further increase as Trump continues to abuse his executive powers.

Chuck Schumer, Please Resign

Chuck Schumer going down hallway


Chuck Schumer is a traitor, and needs to hang his career politician costume up. This man has done the Democratic Party a great disservice. Personally, I am surprised Hakeem Jeffries was outspoken about Schumer's stance to vote in favor of the Republican bill to avoid a government shutdown. Nanci Pelosi, one of his great allies, also stood up for what is right, and urged the democratic Congress not to vote in favor of the Republican bill, which all know will have catastrophic consequences on certain programs.

Chuck Shumer frequently talks a good talk, but the details are in his actions as to where his true allegiance lies--to himself, to his career, and to fading Congressional institution he so adores. It is not with the people in this nation, and most definitely not with those on Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, and people using other programs for their very survival. Chuck Shumer certainly enjoys a good health care plan, no doubt lives in a nice home, and never lacks food to eat. Many people do not have these things. And Schumer knows this.

Here is a list of the 10 wayward Democrats voted along with Republicans to push along the Republican GOP funding bill to avoid a government shutdown. They are as follows: 

Minority Leader Chuck Schumer New York

John Fetterman of Pennsylvania

Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada

Dick Durbin of Illinois

Brian Schatz of Hawaii

Gary Peters of Michigan

Kirsten Gillibrand of New York

Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire

Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire

Angus King — an independent from Maine

Never support these in Congress again. 

I have been saying this for years, even as a registered Democrat: the Democratic Party is completely out of touch with the poor and working class in this country. The worse of them are the career politicians. And while I am at it, let me give a literal shout out to John Fetterman: please stop masquerading as a Democrat and take your chameleon self unto to the Republican Party, who would love to use you as a token gesture. 

What the Democratic Party lacks is good leadership to stand against the tyranny we see being exhibited by the Trump Administration. The leadership is greatly lacking, not cohesive, nor organized enough. Jasmine Crockett, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamie Raskin can only be in one place at a given time. We need a rock solid Democratic presence which does not waver or cower to Republicans. Too often, Hakeem Jeffries has appeared weak and responded on more than one occasion in a dismal fashion to resisting our new authoritarian government, yet for now he has redeemed himself by pointing out the error of those going along with the Republican bill. 

The people of this country must make demands upon their elected officials, both Democrat and Republicans to stop the momentum of this dictatorship, designed to enrich an oligarchy comprised of billionaires. For our elected works for us and they are supposed to represent us--the electorate of this nation. Remind your Senators and Representatives their jobs are very much at stake, as Trump plots to override the legislative branch with sneaky executive orders, designed to increase executive power. The Congress is on its way to becoming obsolete.

Mid-terms are coming, and Republicans should cast their votes for those who will represent their interests, such as Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, farmers, and more. Honestly, I view voting as a last ditch effort to save our nation. The outlook appears bleak--we need to come to terms with the reality we are facing. For the Democrats, let your voices be heard when the primaries come up, and bring forth new candidates to replace chronic and stagnant politicians. Let your voices be heard in town halls meetings, on social media and other internet platforms, and in the streets. The point of no return is for the most part already here, but in a last ditch effort to save this country, people need to make their voices heard, and start exerting political pressure like they have never done so in their lives. 

Chuck Schumer. Please resign. You are no good to the Democratic Party. And for the ten who went along with you, voters, make sure they will never get a chance to represent us again!

A Tale Of Two Narcissists

Elon Musk and Donald Trump distorted...hmm.


Do you even dare guess? Yes, of course you are right! The most powerful narcissist of the two is Elon Musk, and the second in command is Donald Trump. The one with the presidential title, however, is Donald Trump, a 34 count convicted felon. You got 1-count felons in the United States who cannot vote, and yet in the United States we got a felon with many counts in our White House sitting on his presidential "throne". We all know by now he envisions himself to be a king of sorts. Yet, in truth, he is dictator.

Elon Musk a few weeks ago decreed all federal workers will have a mere 48 hours to pull out their school supplies and write the Hitler wanna be what they accomplished at their jobs in an one week span. Who in the hell is he? Honestly, I really feel like this guy imagines himself, as well as aspires to be the next Adolph Hitler. He absolutely enjoys the opportunity to grandstand so as to be in the center of attention just as much as Donald Trump. Although both appear to have Narcissistic Personality Disorder, their behavior is somewhat different despite emanating from full blown narcissism. I am no psychiatrist, although you do not have to be a rocket scientist to figure unhinged narcissism out. 

According to the Associated Press, Musk stated the following on X : “Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump’s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week,” ... “Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.” 

The February 23 article on the AP website further reports "There is no official figure available for the total firings or layoffs so far, but The Associated Press has tallied hundreds of thousands of workers who are being affected. Many work outside of Washington. The cuts include thousands at the Departments of Veterans Affairs, Defense, Health and Human Services, the Internal Revenue Service and the National Parks Service, among others. "

Musk enjoys destroying people's lives--he gets off on it. 

All of these federal workers are real genuine people. They have mortgages to pay, monthly rent, car payments, and more. They desire to have fulfilling jobs and rewarding work. They may or may not have children to raise, but if they do have kids, they likely reside within a commutable distance to their work sites. Now thousands are out of jobs which they built their lives around. 

For the ones who voted for Trump, you knew what he was about. I cannot feel sorry for you, but I do for your kids because you will be their role model. A role model who voted for a racist and cruel man, who has the moral character of Satan himself. This is why Elon Musk and Donald Trump is in control--it is because of YOU. You will always be expendable to those comprising this oligarchy--you mean absolutely NOTHING to them. Time shall mark this sordid truth well.

Two narcissists vying for attention can be highly problematic, but alas, Trump needs his "sugar daddy" for all his court debts and financing. Trump a Reality TV show billionaire? I think not. How many people would love to pay only $750 in taxes as he did in the years 2016 and 2017? He is a conman, and no billionaire! Lately, appearing across major news networks, Musk and Trump have vehemently asserted that Musk engages in only a subservient role, but in truth, it is the other way around. Like a delusional white nationalist "knight" on a like-minded psychotic horse, Elon Musk spears head DOGE. Bulldozing people's livelihoods and careers away. It means nothing to him. It's sport. It's fun to this evil man.

Yet all these idiots voted for Donald Trump, because hate was a very large priority on their list. Such a priority, they sold their souls literally to Elon Musk and Trump with a disregard to Project 2025. They chose to ignore it, chose to believe their conman-- their white nationalist savior. And they will soon find out, their "chosen one", as he has referred himself to be, does not give a damn about the havoc is wreaking upon their lives.

Black History Stands Despite Republicans

BLM mural

Donald Trump"s and Elon Musk's administration is taking great strides to demonstrate to the black community their contempt towards us. One of the very first things Trump did in office was to terminate all D.E.I. programs in federal government organizations. Additionally, he has demanded private industries and universities also remove D.E.I programs. Regarding educational institutions, our bigoted president has stipulated to receive federal funding, learning institutions must not have any program aimed at marginalized communities.  His white nationalist agenda, under the misguided conception of "race replacement theory" and "white discrimination" is pushing forward at lightning speed in our country, the United States.

Recently, the Trump administration ordered the Black Lives Matter mural to removed from a street in Washington D.C. which is in close proximity to the White House, about one block away. Representative Andrew Clyde, A white Republican in Congress from Georgia, introduced a bill to withhold millions in federal dollars allocated to Washington D.C., in what would later be a successful effort to extort the removal of the mural.  

Republicans cannot tolerate displays of blacks asserting themselves as equal and valuable. The opportunity to dangle a carrot to evoke black ire is a strategic play. Many feel blacks are being setup to engage in protest about being targeted, so Trump can use his authority to assert marital law. In my opinion, he is going to assert it regardless, whether we protest it or not. I will post about this later as a separate topic.

Trump and Musk relish in targeting the black community, and wants us to know it. Their exhibition of hate is part strategy, but their execution of racist policies is to destroy us as a community. Yes, they want to target us on all levels: income, health, education, and even our very presence in American society. It is a typical strategy of white supremacists to deny history, for they often assert the Holocaust never happened. Today, many schools are being directed to not even teach slavery, such as what we seen regarding Oklahoma in the news.

Just a few days ago, DOGE, headed by the South African racist Elon Musk, is now considering to sell off the historic Freedom Rides Museum in Montgomery, Alabama. Sources are conflicting as to whether a sell of the museums will take place, but one thing we can always count on: Donald Trump is a habitual liar. If he says he will not do something evil, one can generally assume its a lie. 

This is an absolute fact: the racist Trump and Musk administration cannot erase history. We will remain standing as a people and our stories will forever be told!

Representative Al Green Stands Up To Trump

Texas Representative Al Green Escorted Out During Trump's Address

Yesterday, Texas Representative Al Green was censured by the House of Representative for what is classified as being "disorderly", because he gallantly stood up for the poor in the United States! Oh if we only had more Democratic leaders like this man! His actions deemed disruptive by some are considered heroic by others, including me. 

Lets talk about "order" and maintaining "decorum" as chirped by Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, a MAGA on steroids who believes the 2020 election was "stolen".  Would not "order" and "decorum" demand a presidential leader who is not a 34 count felon? What about a person not found guilty in a civil court case for sexual abuse? What about a president who does not blame plane crashes on people of color without knowing any details regarding such accidents? 

What about the lack of decorum and order we witnessed on Friday, February 28, 2025 exhibited by Donald J Trump and J.D Vance towards Volodymyr Zelenskyy?

According to an article from CBS News, the act of censuring congress members was most notable during the Civil war. Quote "It was most common during the Civil War and Reconstruction, when 13 members were censured for offenses ranging from assault in the Capitol to insulting another member". Insulting another member of Congress? We have the chief of insults sitting in the White House, Donald J. Trump!

Heros often stand alone. Congressman Al Green risked his career to stand up for Medicaid and the poor. He brought attention to an ominous issue which is threatening millions of lives. Since the Republicans desire to extinguish Medicaid by proxy using the notion of "committees with restricted budgets" along with head leader Elon Musk, many in this country are going to die! So much for the pro-life advocacy espoused by the Republican Party. They are more than happy to let the poor die slow, tortuous deaths. 

Congressman Al Green represents what true Christianity should reflect to the world! The white Christian nationalist movement in this country has done more to destroy the message of Jesus Christ than anything I have witnessed in my life time. Yes, I am a believer, and for non-believers readers out there, these MAGA supporters are contrary to the message of Christianity. I will share my view on this topic at some other date.

Now, unto the Democrats who voted to censure Congressman Green. When I go shopping, I deeply scrutinize my selection of fruits and vegetables, looking for mold or anything resembling decay. We should take the same approach here regarding our Democratic congressional leaders, to display the decay amongst our Democratic party. Here, below is a list of the 10 Congressional members which voted to censure to Representative Al Green:


  Representative Ami Bera of California

  Representative Jim Costa of California

  Representative Ed Case of Hawaii;

  Representative Laura Gillen of New York

  Representative Tom Suozzi of New York; 

  Representative Jim Himes of Connecticut

  Representative Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania

  Representative Marcy Kaptur of Ohio

  Representative Jared Moskowitz of Florida

  Representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington state


My hat is off to Al Green, a man who has stood up to the wrong he was seeing, despite what the entire world might think. I wish other Democrats would get their priorities straight, and stand up to resist our white nationalist government. There are very few Democrats resisting; sadly most simply plod along with our new authoritarian government, as if it is business is usual. It is not business as usual, for our democracy is fading rapidly away, right before their unseeing eyes.

Google Is Suppressing My Blog

symbolizing Google Bing Suppressing Websites


 I recently started this blog about a month ago, which is a free version. No coding required, however, one has the option to tinker with html codes should they decide to do so. Out of the 12 posts, including two pages, only one has been indexed. Note the titles of my post, and the theme of this blog. It is greatly related to issues effecting the black community and the rising tide of white nationalism.

Tell me, Google, how do you decide what is quality content? What criteria does your algorithms look for? Because of the 12 urls I have submitted for indexing, the only one "accepted" by your most discriminatory scepter is the one focusing on international relations as opposed to the posts discussing race and discrimination. How ironic! You have helped prove my point that blacks encounter systemic racism on all facets of our society, including websites and blogs being excluded from search engines.

I have not tinkered with html coding on the blog posts, so how is it one post gets through--the one which focuses on international politics, and the others focusing primarily on race issues have "redirect errors". All of the posts have the exact same settings ticked off on my blogger dashboard, so would not the post entitled "Word View Of The New Trump Administration", also have a "redirect error"? Yet, it was indexed, but the others, discussing issues effecting the black community in the United States was excluded. Interesting, wouldn't you say?

There are redirect tools online for free to assess if and why pages may be throwing off errors. Naturally, because of continuing problems of my blog getting indexed, I used made use of these tools. All report no redirect errors--none where detected. All, including Bing, accepted my sitemap url, except Google--which constantly claims it "can't be fetched".

Quality content...hmm. Is quality content confined to issues which appear "white" or non-race related? Do you see neon banners flashing on this blog, or a detailed list of what I ate for breakfast akin to some of the type of subjects one sees on Instagram or Tik Tok? Is quality content defined as issues primarily effect white people, and excluding what sounds like a bunch of black people talking serious issues effecting our community? Always bitching, says Bingbot and Googlebot...Sounds like white noise to me. (Pardon the pun).

I have done blogs with subdomains in the past which were not related to race and I have never seen their pages not get indexed. Never. Bing is bitching about "alt tags" on photos,  but so far no indexing from either Bing or Google. This blog is a few days from reaching its one month anniversary. 

By the way. Please do not rename my blog "Gulf Of America". This is blog is not about the Gulf of Mexico. I do fully realize Google has expanded its kingdom to redefine geographical territories to appease Donald Trump, our 34 count felon sitting president. 

Oh, what a tangled "web" we weave.

Slashes In Medicaid And Systemic Killing

 

musk with chainsaw

This is one hell of a devious group, methodical, and calculating to cut health care programs which they hope will hit minority communities. It is estimated that these cuts would end coverage for over 20 million people. Unconscionable! It is estimated over 1 in 5 Americans are on Medicaid. There is going to be a lot people die--literally! The effect of these cuts will be catastrophic! 

States will have to take up the slack, but can they or will they? We are a "third wold" country when it comes to health care, because so many already die needlessly each year lacking access to health care. Can you imagine what this is going to be like for millions of people? Some states will have to drop Medicaid expansion altogether, so count on red states being first.

 As I wrote before, there are more whites on these programs based on statistical data. Contrary to the minds of racist Republicans--Medicaid is not a "black thing".  Statistics show more whites are on Medicaid than any racial group. What gives a better picture on inequality and disparities in health care, is the statistical proportion of various racial groups without insurance or with inferior insurance. Medicaid has always presented limited options with patients facing closed doors by certain practitioners and medical facilities. It was already woefully lacking and now Republicans want to kill the program off.

Meanwhile, tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans remain in the forefront of the Trump administration. DOGE wants to target programs which effect average Americans, and protect defense contracts, because Elon Musk makes money from such contracts. An oligarchy has taken over this government which blames the poor for debt (yet knowing this is not the case). Far more is spent on other programs beneficial to lining their pockets, such as Musk's space and defense contracts, increased spending at the Pentagon now headed by Hesgeth--all directed by unqualified people. And they want to talk about merit based hiring? Give me a damn break. 

Recently, Musk and Trump dangled a dream carrot to their MAGA supporters: a blatant lie,  suggesting a "check" of several thousand dollars to go out to the masses. Not going to happen--this is to placate MAGA simply to quiet them as they are losing their benefits and jobs. This stupid and gullible cultic mass is delusional enough to fall for it. Trump dangled the ideal of $5000 as a down the road possibility. Yeah--so not. What is $5000 in the world of health care?

These evil Republicans quibble over Medicaid visits to a doctor, but just wait til these hospitals get hit with emergency room visits. Wait til a big portion of MAGA voters on Medicaid find out they cannot get medical help no more. The Republican Party does NOT CARE about the health of average Americans! They do NOT CARE if children and families starve in our nation. 

It is estimated that nearly 40% of Republican voters are on Medicaid, or have a family member on Medicaid. So president Musk via his proxy, Donald Trump has concocted a lie to appease their MAGA supporters in case disenchantment arises. Well, disenchantment has already began to arise: from Medicaid recipients, farmers, veterans, federal workers who have lost their jobs, slashes to National Parks and more. 

We are witnessing MAGA recipients raising their voices because these cuts will effect their three foot radius of existence, and not just people of color. By stealth, the Republicans are going to defund the committees which fund Medicaid and SNAP benefits, by demanding committee overseers allocate specific amounts to these programs with their new severely cut budgets. This is a Republican sneaky way to distance themselves from cuts to Medicaid and claim these programs will not be cut to their MAGA electorate, a lie basically. Because cuts will occur however by these committees, now forced to demolish Medicaid by DOGE and the Republican Party. 

Arise people! Raise hell! Fire your Congress members through your vote, and hire the ones who will truly work for you! 

"Speak up, speak out, get in the way. Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America".

Impeach The President To Save Our Nation!

 


Americans: Republicans and Democrats, if we are going to save our democracy, we must call on our Senators and Representatives to impeach Donald Trump, and remove Elon Musk. We must exert political pressure by calling and writing our elected officials. We must protest and demonstrate. We must boycott. America, can you put your racist ideologies aside, and see our form of government is slipping away?

The world order changed Friday, with significant repercussions. The United States government is deliberately alienating itself from our Western allies, hence our country is going to leave NATO. International relations absolutely effect the internal structure of our country!

Regardless of your political affiliation, do you want to be removed from our traditional democratic process? It's already happening before your eyes! How can you not see it? The Congress is losing power, and Donald Trump has been signing executive orders to weaken the power of the legislative and judicial branches.  Recently, Trump passed an executive order to broaden his powers over Congressional decisions and the Supreme Court. 

The time to act is now. No matter what race you may be, and no matter your political affiliation, fight to preserve our democracy! Fight to preserve your way of life! Remember, during his campaign in 2024, Donald Trump stated to a crowd, if he were elected "you would never have to vote again". Why? Because he knew what Project 2025 entailed.

The United States has always aligned itself to democratic nations, but on Friday, February 28, 2025 that changed. The United States is now aligning itself to a communist nation--Russia, simply by the act of forsaking Ukraine by withholding aid. Historically, our a nation has always fought for democratic causes, and offered assistance to other democratic nations under attack--until now. 

Rise up, and make your voices heard. We have a chance to save this nation, if we can execute messages to our elected officials who now strive to serve their best interests, NOT OURS. Inform your representatives and senators that they are soon going to be out of a job, and that their powers are fading away on a daily basis.  They are suppose to represent the electorate, not themselves. Yet, if they realize their powers are eroding, there may be a chance they will rise to the occasion, and impeach Trump.

If not, a revolution must arise to get our democracy back.
