Ain't That America VI

Well, what a week it's been in America … we saw the opening of Gator Gitmo, AKA The Felon Concentration Camp … the passage of tax cuts for billionaires and no more healthcare for the lower class … word salads from Demented DonOLD … lying Republicans … traitorous Lisa Murkowski … and some good news from a couple of governors, one even a Republican …


A reporter recently asked The Felon about Gator Gitmo: "Is there an expected timeframe detainees will spend here? Days, weeks, months? And does that have anything to do with the immigration judges you just spoke about, being trained and staffed here?"

Demented DonOLD: "What was the first part of your question?"

Reporter: "Is there a specific timeframe you expect the detainees to stay here? Days, weeks, months?"

Demented DonOLD:: "In Florida?"

Reporter: "Yes."

Demented DonOLD:: "I'm gonna spend a lot. Look, this is my home state. I love it. I love your government. I love all the people around—these are all friends of mine. and they know I'm—very well. I'm not surprised that they do so well. they're great—people. Uh, Ron has been a friend of mine for a long time. I feel very comfortable in this state. I'll spend a lot of time here."

Yes, you read that right. He forgets the question as soon as it’s asked and then goes off about living in Florida … 25th Amendment, please, the president Is Deranged.


Wisconsin GOP Representative Derrick Van Orden pushed back on the notion that the GOP always caves to The Felon’s demands:

“The president of the United States didn’t give us an assignment. We’re not a bunch of little bitches around here, okay?”

And then every single Little GOP Bitch, save one, did as ordered.


In 2023, while Kristi Noem AKA Border Barbie was governor of South Dakota, she supplemented her income by accepting a cut of the money she raised for a nonprofit that promotes her political career.

The payment totaled $80,000 in 2023, a boost to her roughly $130,000 government salary. Since the nonprofit is a so-called dark money group—one that’s not required to disclose the names of its donors—the original source of the money remains unknown but the fact is Noem never disclosed the $80,000 payment to the public.

After she was selected to be the Pinup Girl for Concentration Camps, Noem released an accounting of her assets and sources of income from 2023 on but did not include the $80,000, which is a violation of federal ethics requirements.

Border Nazi, Dogkiller, Adulterer, Grifter Liar, Cheat … she’s The Felon in a dress


This week the Environmental Protection Agency [EPA] placed 144 employees on administrative leave and opened an investigation into their decision to sign a letter accusing the current fascist regime of politicizing the agency.

Welcome to totalitarianism.


During a supposedly bipartisan celebration of the 250th anniversary of America’s independence The Felon, started off with this:

“They wouldn’t vote [for the Big Beautiful Bill] only because they hate [me], but I hate them, too, you know? I really do. I hate them. I cannot stand them because I really believe they hate our country.”

The Felon’s team said the event was organized as a non-political celebration designed to bring Americans together and yet The Felon declared that he hates half of the country.


During a recent White House Faith Office conference call, The Felon  suggested that disruptions to the call’s audio might have been part of a deliberate effort to sabotage the event. Later on White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt AKA Bullshit Barbie implied that evil spirits were behind the technological difficulties:

“There is spiritual warfare as we all know. It tried to break up our call today as the president even alluded to.”

Maybe Demented DonOLD forgot to pay the phone bill.


Alaska GOP Senator Lisa Murkowski labeled the process that brought her to vote for the GOP’s Fuck America But Give Cash To Billionaires tax and spending package “agonizing.” Murkowski says she “struggled mightily” with the cuts to Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program [SNAP] could have on vulnerable populations.

But then she cut a last-minute deal to offset or exempt some of the costs of the bill for Alaska.

Typical Republican, she got hers and then said, “Fuck the rest of you.”


Apparently there is a new app for your phone:  ICEBlock, a community-driven app that allows you to share and discover location-based reports on ICE without revealing any personal data.

And Border Hitler Tom Homan, along with Border Barbie, Kristi Noem, want CNN punished because they reported the story.

They want to quash the news so …

There’s an app for your phone called ICEBlock, a community-driven app that allows you to share ICE locations without revealing any personal data.

Pass it on.


North Carolina Democratic Governor Josh Stein has vetoed three anti-DEI bills and another measure that in part would target transgender rights.

Stein criticized the GOP-controlled legislature for focusing on these measures while they’ve yet to enact a budget for the fiscal year that started this week.

Republicans are one House seat short of a veto-proof majority. No Democrats voted for the final three anti-DEI measures.


Ohio GOP Governor Mike DeWine decided that state lawmakers went too far in the culture war against LGBTQ+ Ohioans and issued three key vetoes blocking money for youth shelters that use the preferred pronouns of transgender kids; he vetoed a provision to require materials covering sexual orientation or gender identity to be kept in the adult section of libraries, out of sight for children; he vetoed a provision that would limit which flags can fly on state properties to the American flag, Ohio flag, the POW/MIA flag and flags of official state agencies—Pride flags would’ve been prohibited.

All good, though he did sign a ban on Medicaid funding for mental health services for transgender people and a declaration that there are only two genders.

You’re almost there, Mike; so close to being a decent human being but then you stopped short.


Democrat Senator from Virginia, Mark Warner, claims that many GOP Senators are coming to him privately and saying:

“Mark, keep speaking up, You’re our conscience.”

The GOP conscience? That’s a laugh; and Mark Warner should be revealing the names of the GOP asshats.

And there you have it ... another week under the regime. But y'all know what to do ...

  1. Donald's dementia is more and more apparent every day. Did Bullshit Barbie start wearing her Pinocchio cross again? I'd thought she'd taken it off. Murkowski has always been a party loyalist who talks out both sides of her mouth. This time, however, she went too far and she knows it, that's why we got the sorry looks.

  2. Roy Cohn’s ghost must be running things for demented DonOLD. What dirt does he have on all these people to make them do whatever he says?

    🤯 Arrgghh!! 🤬
    1. Leave Noem alone! She can't afford that $50K Rolex to wear to a concentration camp if she doesn't lie about that money!!
    2. Leave Leavitt alone! She obviously believes that Satan's Dems control the phones! Just like MTG (Sporkfoot-GA) obviously believes Satan's Dems killed dozens of xtian little girls in TX by cloud-seeding/chemtrails in order to fake climate change!!

    3. DERRICK VAN ORDEN is worse than you think and has been since his whiny drunken ass got to Capitol Hill!!
    🤨🥺 In their eagerness to be Orange Daddy's favorite, these cheaply-bought meat puppets vie for being the worst and it is often hard to choose. But, for my money, this week's worst is Congressman Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin!! (He is always in my Top 10 because of his drunken-freshman rep. screaming at the outgoing class of Congressional pages having fun in 2023!)
    This week, Van Orden sobbed that "we are not Trump's little bitches!" He was still sobbing while he voted with all his little bitches and even while he did Trump's double-handjob dance to "YMCA" as all the little bitches celebrated being Trump's little bitches!! 🍄😵
    But Van Orden diid something even worse to get my vote! He sent an urgent letter to Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers begging him to "save rural hospitals before Trump signs the bill I just voted for that will destroy rural hospitals!!" * JFC!! 🤬🤬 Evers signed his budget in time to offer relief, but he was going to do that anyway because he cares about Wisconsin; not because Trump's little bitch was desperate!! 😭
    I'll be watching for Van Orden to take credit for Evers' rescue ASAP!! 💩💩

  4. It's pretty chickenshit for all those Republicans to make Warner take the heat for being their "conscience."

    That completely mystifying Trump quote is proof that the old guy is either losing his marbles, or really, really bad at deflecting questions he doesn't want to answer.

    As for "spiritual warfare," that's just throwing a bone to the Christian right.

  5. Then we had Border Barbie doing a news presser about....wait for it....the flooding in Texas. She never misses a chance to spread the propaganda. There is just no bottom too low for all these bottom-feeders.

  6. Good heavens, the stupid is all encompassing in the GOP and this administration.
    On the other hand, it is good to hear there are some bright spots, few as they may be.

  8. Dog Killer Gnome strikes again; like all other members of the Duck clique she has zero morals. As for Plastic Barbie, let's not even go there; perhaps we should call her Hypocrite Barbie?

  9. Brought to you by the folks who clutched their collective pearls over a tan suit. To borrow a word from the dog's mother, the ak is real!

  10. Well, it was all fairly predictably grim since it's been a continuous downward spiral, hasn't it? My concern is, the Democrats aren't offering up any strong Leadership or strong Messaging and so will they muster the support they desperately require? I'm not Partisan but I just don't know they will and that's equally disheartening. One side is blatantly corrupt and intent on destroying the America we've defended and sacrificed to preserve for Generations... the other side seems impotent and isn't actually coming on very strong or instilling confidence they even can IMO. I'm really concerned about the Future since the Present is looking really bad, worse than I could have even imagined.

  11. JD is waiting patiently in the wings for his turn at the President's podium, then things will get even worse.

  12. Whew what a firestorm of a week. So much rage, chaos, and double-dealing it’s hard to keep track, but your rundown nails it all. Gator Gitmo? Wild. Props to the governors who did something right, even if barely. And that ICEBlock app? Genius.

    Appreciate your fearless voice—keep it coming.

  13. Every day is worse than the one before. Another blogger I read, who I really admire, has just decided she's given up (her words). She's older (late 70s, maybe) and said she just can't do it anymore. No more protests, no more writing or calling her congressperson. That made me sad but I get her feeling. It seems overwhelming, and with the no real savvy leadership in the Democratic party who is allowed to speak out, we seem to be sinking more and more each day. I won't give up the fight, though.

  14. Oh, Mango Mussolini's brain is mush. They prop him up with Addreal and some caffeine every time he needs to be in front of the cameras. They also give him a new Depends.
    Border Barbie is a cosplayer of the first order: nothing about her is real. She's the idea MAGAts have of an attractive woman.

    XOXO

  15. Did you get out of bed on the wrong side Bob? It's either that or you disturbed a hornets' nest. There must be something good you could say about GOP and #47 though for the life of me I cannot imagine what.
