The irony is that Pam Bondi now has unprecedented control of Donald - and he knows it - and his 'full throated' support of her is his only option.

You just can’t make this stuff up. Karma is real. Just didn’t know when it would show up. Kinda like the Christian Golden Rule: “do unto others…”

I’m really not gloating…just laughing uncontrollably at all the insanity these folks have invoked…planning for maybe 30 years? Really? Really? THIS is what is meaningful to peoples’ lives? What I am saddest about is the state of evolution of so many people in our country. Who knew? I was blindsided when Hillary lost…and have had lots of therapy understanding what it was in me that I allowed these people to hook me into bouts of uncontrollable rage. How could I have been so naive? I refuse to hate anyone, ever, but this past decade has challenged my basic beliefs about any and all people on the planet. I’m in recovery now: I stopped watching or reading any news November 5th, 2024. I have been in seclusion since my husband passed over 11/11/24. I’m blessed with a tribe of family and friends who all believe in the power of love towards everyone I meet. Love is love. I will stand in the light, and speak from the light. I believe we have each been given this life on Earth as a gift to learn how to be the best human I can be. I have free choice about everything I do. Have I made bad behavior choices? OF COURSE I have! I’m 78. The good news is I’ve always wanted to learn, to be curious, been open to everyone’s religions, to understand an out-of-control ego is my own worst enemy. If I believe money and power and expensive stuff will make me happy,…well, then I’m in trouble! I am blessed very early in life from my folks who loved and appreciated the land, they made everything better than they found it: would enrich the soil in our vegetable gardens with compost, plant trees in the woods, we ate the finest home grown vegetables and fruits. The worst sin I could ever commit was lying. I never did, out of the fear of my Father’s wrath and my Mother’s disappointment. My Dad’s admonition to being a good person: “Trust your own conscience. Listen to your inner voice and you will always know what to do.” “Leave the world better than when you found it.” He had no use for liars, thieves, conmen, people who used others, etc.

So, today, I’m breathing a little more easily, saying prayers of Thanksgiving for all the good in the world…and knowing that world peace is possible and it’s up to you and me to create that future. There is a spark of the Divine in each of us…sometimes we don’t know that, or it’s covered over by deep inner wounds. What we can do is let our light shine through compassion, kindness, sharing, loving our neighbor as ourselves…we really have no enemies. Pogo: “we have met the enemy and they is us.” With love, and in peace…❤️🙏❤️😎🐶

Sandra! Thank you. What a beautiful post. I'm 76, right with you, and have been thinking of that Pogo quote all year! What wise parents you had and what a beautiful upbringing. I love that your dear Dad had no use for liars and conmen. I think mine was the same. Good Midwest stock, always serving the public good. There are more of us than we realize. It's our time now to rise up and shine.

Sandra,

Speaking of The Golden Rule...

Remember when Trump was asked for his favorite Bible verse? (Kinda like asking an amoeba for their favorite flavor of Doritos, but I digress.)

The fact that Bumpy, Dumpy, Frumpy, Grumpy, Humpy, Jumpy, Lumpy, Rumpy, Stumpy, Trumpy apparently wasn't even able to reference The Golden Rule SHOULD been a warning to every white evangelical on Earth. Of course that wasn't their issue, despite their claims.

Thank you, Sandra. Great stuff!

He didn't place his hand on the Bible when he took the oath of office. I noticed that immediately and commented to everyone that would listen that he didn't.

Like you, I refuse to hate but this evil person in the WH has made it difficult to maintain that desire. Hate only gets hate. I was also devastated after our last election & at 70 still trying to understand how we as a country spiraled into so much hate & anger. I continue to have hope that our higher selves will come through & love & acceptance of all individuals can arise. If enough people carry hope & love & maintain that vision we as a collective consciousness can turn this ship around.

Yes Twila thank you! With eyes wide open too. I can't believe there has been so much hatred and anger either -- the floodgates opened with his permission and entitlement to get away with murder literally.

I understand how you feel and have to fight with myself every day to not hate this regime. Do I like these people? No. I don't want to hate them either. For me, hate would be putting myself on their level. I, instead, make fun of how stupid they are, how ignorant, how money hungry (money doesn't buy happiness - it just make life easier). The cruelty they impose, I imagine that it is them receiving that cruelty and pray for those that are on the receiving end, that they can endure what is happening to them and to promise myself that I will always try to help anyone in need that I can. I do not have much money, but I have a lot of love and faith and will use both to do whatever I can for anyone.

I'm sorry for the loss of your husband. I am 83 and enjoy the same values. I wish we could teach everyone the same, but, sometimes people have to learn them for themselves. When I was growing up the majority of us had good values and those that didn't were either taught them, or we stayed away from them.

So sorry about your husband...mine passed In 2010...but seems like yesterday...was an assistant US Atty and a US Marine with 2 tours of duty in Vietnam...he and many others were sprayed with agent orange twice which ended up killing him later in his life. Your pain is all of our pain because we're ALL connected to each other! Your journey is important and your thoughts as well! Thank you for sharing!

I truly believe we shall overcome this hideousness. The beast will destroy himself through all the lies and hatred! And the people who STILL support him will eventually wake up! And get their due especially those in Congress who are trying to ruin the future for our children and grandchildren.... THEY DO KNOW WHAT THEY DO!

So it is definitely up to all of us to hold the line of our freedoms and uphold the laws and Constitution!

So thank you for your kindness and words and thoughtfulness! There are more of us to go forward with truth and love and the PEACE this country needs right now in this pivotal point in our history!!!

Trump is having a meltdown because he thought this would all just go away. He is so scared. Pam Bondi is not a "real" Attorney General, and she's complicit in all of the attempts by Trump to take down our Democracy. She's kissed the ring.

The Trump administration tells so many lies, they can't keep track.

If Pam Bondi destroys those files she should be impeached by Congress and removed from office immediately! So should anyone else involved in the cover up.

Trump just lost some of his MAGA followers tonight. Some are burning their red hats. Others are promising to leave the party if Pam Bondi doesn't release the list.

I get so infuriated at Trump voters who have buyer’s remorse after they vote. Like, we TOLD you and you didn’t listen, and now you have no one to blame but yourself.

Trump personally ordered Pam Bondi to not release the files. This was never about running the country, this was about staying out of prison.

This clever "Trump for Prison" tee is perfect for these times 👇

The Pig by Anonymous

https://writersalmanac.publicradio.org/index.php%3Fdate=2014%252F05%252F01.html

It was the first of May

A lovely warm spring day

I was strolling down the street in drunken pride,

But my knees were all a-flutter,

And I landed in the gutter

And a pig came up and lay down by my side.

Yes, I lay there in the gutter

Thinking thoughts I could not utter

When a lady passing by did softly say

'You can tell a man who boozes

By the company he chooses' —

And the pig got up and slowly walked away.

joke: Joke

Donald Trump has a heart-attack and dies. He is delivered immediately to Hell, where the devil is waiting for him.

"You are on my list, but I have no room for you. You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got three folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves."

Donald thought that sounded pretty good, so the devil opened the door to the first room.

In it was Richard Nixon and a large pool of water. Nixon kept diving in, and surfacing, empty handed. Over, and over, and over he dived in and surfaced with nothing. Such was his fate in hell.

"No," Donald said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer and it would ruin my hair do. I don't think I could do that all day long."

The devil led him to the door of the next room.

In it was Ronald Reagan with a sledge-hammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, time after time after time.

"No, this is no good; I've got this problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day," commented Donald.

The devil opened a third door. Through it, Donald saw Bill Clinton, lying on the bed, his arms tied over his head, and his legs restrained in a spread-eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best.

Donald looked at this in shocked disbelief, and finally said, "Yeah man, I can handle this."

The devil smiled and said...........

"OK, Monica, you're free to go."
