No Kings Day June 14, 2025
Trump wants to be a King–a dictator. Our constitution prohibits that. Therefore, to try to circumvent the constitution, Trump throws the nasty first punches — and then cries: “Stop the Rebellion”– that he provoked.
Some people overlook the awkwardness of his deceit, but others of us see this convicted felon, wannabe king, for who and what he is.
Trying to keep up with Trump’s changing policies is making me dizzy. But making the people dizzy and confused is Trump’s purpose.
Now, after a massive ICE raid and attempt at military occupation over those raids in LA, Trump has decided to cease his efforts to deport illegal immigrant farm and service laborers.
Too Little — Too Late!
Unfortunately, families have already been separated, some children have been seized and detained, and other children have been left with no parents or family to care for them.
It is an insult that after this damage has been imposed, Trump has announced that he will no longer detain laborers.
I don’t know whether this change is because Trump’s approval ratings have dipped to an all-time low, or whether it is because he and his entourage were booed at the Kennedy Center, or whether it is because Trump cannot mange to deport the number of immigrants he promised, [He cannot even match the deportation numbers of his Democrat forerunners], or whether it is because someone has finally convinced this guy that he doesn’t have a legal argument — but apparently, trump plans to ease up on deportation.
Frankly, I don’t know how Trump’s agents, who are indiscriminately chasing brown people through the streets, parking lots, and fields, will know who is a laborer and who is not. I suspect the situation will be another bungled mess.
But to try to cover their tracks, Noem changed her raison d’etre for the military occupation of LA to that of a need to liberate the city from its liberal and socialist leadership–and not what Maga originally said: ICE raid: “We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate this city from the socialist and burdensome leadership that this Governor Newsom and this mayor placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into this city,” Noem said. But Lady, that is also illegal. What a pot of bull.
Thoughts on Bull Fighters, Bull, and Waving Red Flags
The Important Thing to Know is that Trump Throws the First Punch, and then He Steps Back and Enjoys the Fight He Started.
Ultimately, Trump Sends the Military to Stop the Rebellion He Began.
The Next Step is that Trump Will Have Secured His Military sSecure Throne.
Wake Up! You people who stand by passively and watch our democracy fall.
