  It's not a new marketing ploy - how many times have businesses tried to entice you with money, big money? Get $500 in groceries if you join right now! I've been almost taken in with Temu's games which claim to give you money back! It's amazing! Until you read the teeny tiny fine print. For the next $5,000 you spend we'll chip off a few cents. Gotta be quick! This offer is subject to government intervention.  Aww, those poor ICE hirees, all thinking they were going to get a big bundle of $50,000 if they join the brown shirt club.  Picture it... Podunk, USA.... "Lookie here, Mavis, says I'll get $50,000 just for gettin' picked to round up them border hoppers. That's a win-win in my book. Hey, once I get that money, Imma quit right there and we can build our double wide back behind your Mama's pot garden. I won't have to work for ten, twenty years!" Unfortunately, that's now how it works and men in masked cosplay outfits are starting...

  I was going to start this post by apologizing for  writing so much about politics, but then I said to myself, "Self, this is what interests you. Stop bowing to pressure to write about kittens and baking bread and budgeting the month. This shit is important." Yes, it is. It truly boggles my mind when I see people completely turned off by what is an absolutely imperative function in our lives. Y'all have clean water, decent roads, firefighters and no mice poo in your cornflakes because of policies written by politicians. So, go fucking knit a blanket and discuss three sticks of butter instead of two, if laws that impact your life are so bothersome.  So. I'm gonna discuss Melania once again. She's not a politician but she knows a few. I'm still shaking my head when I see the news media proclaim her documentary as a great success. It's all relative, my dears. But, I wanted to know who the movie goers were who spent $7 million dollars to watch the first lady ...

  "No, I never knew him." "Yes, I vaguely knew him." "We chatted occasionally, mostly business. But, I never went to the Island." "Yes, we talked about women, not girls. I had no idea about his life." "I'm ashamed how I spoke about women, but it was just immature banter. I didn't know anything." The line in the sand continues to be pushed back after more emails and images are revealed. From never knowing Jeffrey Epstein to hundreds upon hundreds of emails passed between him and a host of powerful men and women. When did Epstein ever get anything done considering he was emailing people nonstop? They all wanted something from him. Money, advice, drugs and girls. Even after he served time they ran back to him so this defense that they had no idea that he was in the business of sex trafficking is ridiculous. It absolutely shocks me to see the amount of people who knew this man. Slime bag after ass kissing sycophant, praising him, mi...

  Alex Pretti  So now we have names behind who murdered Alex Pretti. At first I couldn't comprehend the complete irony that Pretti was shot by two men of Mexican ethnicity. But then I thought of my girlfriend from high school, Maria, who was Mexican American. She lived most of her young life in a nice American suburb in the Midwest, living with her grandparents who spoke no English. Maria was the product of a one night stand. Her absent father lived in Chicago while her mother raised her other children in southern Texas. I first believed Maria was my savior and friend. My first introduction into her true nature arose when we were driving through Elgin, heading to her Uncle's home for the weekend. They both started speaking in Spanish while they pointed and laughed at a group of men standing outside a home. I didn't understand them until Maria used a slur I definitely understood. It was a shock to me and I felt sick to my stomach. We didn't talk this way in my home. How ...

  Can a movie be both absolutely beautiful and horrifically racist? There was some chatter yesterday regarding the movie, 'The Searchers.' It stars John Wayne who was a wonderful actor, there's no doubt regarding that. He would have made a great Maga. I'm sure he would be supportive of the orange man in office, but my feathers are ruffled when others speak for the dead, so I shouldn't presume anything. Perhaps, he would have seen the light, eventually. Back in the day, 1972, after Sacheen Littlefeather spoke at the Oscar's, regarding the plight of Native Americans depicted on film and in real life, Wayne had to be held back because he wanted to harm her. When people watch the movie they all have different viewpoints. Yes, the main character, Ethan Edwards despises Native Americans. He considers them all savages. After his niece is kidnapped by a local tribe he is obsessed with finding her, first out of family duty, then out of rage. His niece is now tainted. She...

  Since when did making $7 million on a $40 million production become a success? I'll tell you! When the Magas want you to believe this to be true. The White House is claiming the documentary, 'Melania,' made $10 million, the best a documentary has done in years. That might be true. A little context here. Documentaries rarely make big money. They also don't cost $40 mil to make. And we all know where that $7 million is coming from. Barron dug into his crypto account.   I know I should let this this Melania debacle go because I have so much more doom scrolling to keep me occupied, but I just can't help myself. I'm mad at Joanna Coles for liking the documentary. She found it to be slick and hip, like a MTV music video. We learn nothing new about the first lady other than she definitely doesn't sleep with the cankle man and Barron is as weird as we believe him to be.  It really is a show about nothing, directed by a scumbag creep who is looking to get back int...
