Time to Fulfill a Promise

With the recall over it’s time to think about AB 1400, the California single-payer bill which will be reintroduced in   early 2022. Gov. Gavin Newsom is not only indebted to progressives for his recent political rescue, but also for his election in 2018 when he promised to support such a bill. It’s time to remind him and to apply heat to wavering local pols.

Lost Cause Loser

“What an embarrassment we are suffering because we don’t have the genius of a Robert E. Lee!”  —  Donald J. Trump (Sept.8, 2021)

As an expert on being a blithering idiotic embarrassment, the self-declared “very stable genius” and former social media influencer Donald Trump loves slavery and the lost cause of Robert E. Lee’s defeated Confederacy so much, Trump just can’t keep his filthy, ignorant mouth shut for once!  Best of luck running for president in 2024, fool.

And as a notoriously corrupt and frivolously litigious bankrupted businessman and legendary tax cheat, who is infamous not only for his unparalleled incompetence but also for repeatedly refusing to pay his employees the wages they are legally entitled to, the tangerine tyrant Trump knows a thing or two about forcing contractors and laborers to work for him without being paid for their labor.

It’s time to make traitor Trump pay for his crimes.  Does any American (who is not currently in a medically-induced COVID-19 coma on a ventilator in a Republican-controlled state) have any doubt whatsoever that diabolical Donald Trump is a neo-Confederate, neo-Nazi numbskull career criminal who belongs in Rikers Island Prison, instead of in his truly tacky country club in Palm Beach, Florida?  U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland needs to get a move on and slap the cuffs on Trump ASAP!
