NEVER BELIEVE A LYING LIAR.

 

IF YOU OFFEND THE REGIME, THE REGIME WILL COME AFTER YOU.

This is what Jimmy Kimmel said: 

 “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it. In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving. On Friday, the White House flew the flags at half staff which got some criticism but on a human level you can see how hard the president is taking this.” 

*********************

After Stephen Colbert's late-night show was cancelled, Trump gleefully said he would go after Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians who criticize him and who he dislikes. Well, he's done it. This is a clear-cut case of the government (under Trump) shutting down free speech, through threats: 

NYTIMES: 'The largest operator of ABC affiliates, Nexstar—which needs FCC approval for a $6.2 billion merger—said it would stop airing Kimmel’s show from its stations. Then ABC suspended Kimmel’s show. 

Benny Johnson, the podcaster on whose show Carr threatened Kimmel, was one of the influencers Russian state media funded to spread propaganda before the 2024 election. After Kimmel’s suspension, Johnson posted on social media: “We did it for you, Charlie. And we’re just getting started.”

 

FCC Chairman, Brenden Carr:

Thomas Paine considered free speech essential for self-government and the pursuit of truth, linking liberty directly to the right to express ideas, question authority, and foster dialogue, even when that expression might cause offense. 

He advocated for the freedom to speak one's mind, seeing it as a cornerstone of democracy and a protection for both truth and progress. 

Paine believed that free speech was fundamental to a truly democratic and self-governing society. Citizens needed the liberty to express their thoughts openly without fear of suppression to hold governments accountable. He argued that the free exchange of ideas was necessary for truth to prevail. Silencing opinions, even those considered false, was seen as an act of infallibility that robbed humanity of the chance to distinguish truth from error. 

If any American approves of what the Trump Regime has done to the 1st Amendment, do not consider yourself an America, because supporting what Trump has done is NOT American. 

Throughout history, this is what every tyrant who's gained political power has done upon seizing that power. The tyrant crushes, through soft or hard force, anything that threatens his power, including voices that disagree with him and voices that tell the objective truth.

If the American people don't rise up against the tyrant, Trump, we're going to lose more than our freedom of speech, we're on our way to losing everything.

Poor befuddled Trump made a fool of himself in front of King Charles and the world:

 

Jeffrey Epstein’s best friend, Donald J. Trump: “It is a privilege to be the first American president welcomed here. And if you think about it, a lot of presidents and this was this was the second state visit and that is the first. Maybe that is going to be the last time—I hope it is."

I marvel at the Brit's self-control and impeccable manners. If this pathetic clown were speaking this gibberish anywhere else, the people would have laughed him into oblivion. Trump isn't making any sense; he sounds demented, and he's embarrassed America.  

I don't think we'll ever recover from this disaster.

Is it virtue signaling? Yes it is, but sometimes it’s what’s called for.

 

The day Charlie Kirk was shot was one of those days. Just like the day President Trump was shot, the day president Reagan was shot and down through the too long list of violence that helps define America.

 

The United States of America is a violent country.

 

As Charlie Kirk himself said defending the right of Americans to own guns, "It's worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment”.

 

That may be true for “some” gun deaths. But the 2024 numbers in the U.S. related to the gun violence, like that which killed Kirk, are staggering.

 

•   More than 16000 gun deaths, excluding suicides.

•   More than 550 mass shootings, defined as an event where more than four people were shot.

•   Over 700 people killed in those mass shooting events.

•   Over 2000 people wounded in those mass shooting events.

 

Perhaps we’ve passed the “some” rubicon, but that’s an argument for another day. I only present the above list as evidence of some of the violence prevalent in America.

 

Today, while our country is still coming to grips with yet another episode of political violence, we need to consider our response. Our political leaders need to consider their response. Because it is in how all of us respond when faced with such tragedy that define us, our goals and our future as a country.

 

And perhaps can help us set a path forward.

 

One of the “jobs” if you will, of political leadership is to help bind us together after such tragedy, and remind us of our shared purpose in unity. In 1995 after the Oklahoma City bombing, a political act of violence to be sure, President Clinton had this to say to a wounded and hurting community…

 

"To all my fellow Americans beyond this hall, I say, one thing we owe those who have sacrificed is the duty to purge ourselves of the dark forces which gave rise to this evil. They are forces that threaten our common peace, our freedom, our way of life.

 

Let us teach our children that the God of comfort is also the God of righteousness. Those who trouble their own house will inherit the wind. Justice will prevail.

 

Let us let our own children know that we will stand against the forces of fear. When there is talk of hatred, let us stand up and talk against it. When there is talk of violence, let us stand up and talk against it. In the face of death, let us honor life. As St. Paul admonished us, let us not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."

 

President Clinton understood his job as America’s mourner in chief as well as President Reagan understood his job as America’s historian when in France, he gave his famous “The boys of Pointe du Hoc” speech at the 40th anniversary of the allied landings at Normandy. Sometimes in America the only person whose words matter, the only person who can call us together, is our president.

 

In spite of all the chaos and violence that is too often swirling all around us, we expect, in fact we need our presidents and political leaders to rise above it. That’s exactly what President Lincoln was doing in his 1861 inauguration speech, given after he survived a first assassination attempt. That day, on the eve of the Civil War, he called us to appeal to “the better angels of our nature”.

 

A New York Times story from 2024 notes that…

 

“In February 2021, Nathan P. Kalmoe and Lilliana Mason, both political scientists, asked a sample of Americans whether it was justified for members of their party to kill opposing political leaders to advance their political goals. Twelve percent of Republicans and 11 percent of Democrats replied that it was. “Generalizing to the population of American partisans,” they write, “means roughly 20 million who endorse assassinating U.S. leaders.”

 

What Kalmoe and Mason were in effect saying is that 20 million people in the U.S. believe political violence is acceptable. This viewing political violence as a legitimate expression of anger at “the system” or people from across the political aisle is what led to events like the Oklahoma City bombing. It is the same attitude and acceptance that led to the attempt on President Trump’s life, the mass political shooting at Tops Friendly Market in Buffalo and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. 

 

Today I wonder where Lincoln’s “better angels” are.

 

Where are our political leaders like President Reagan and Speaker Tip O’Neill who, as bitter political rivals, clasped hands the day Reagan was shot and prayed together, Democrat and Republican for the president’s life?

 

I wonder why today, the idea of simply saying “All political violence is wrong and never justified” seems so out of reach of not just our political leaders, but everyday Americans as well. What has led over 20 million Americans, if the research from Kalmoe and Mason is accurate, to conclude political violence is acceptable?

 

Charlie Kirk was a political leader, beloved by many. His death is leaving behind a grieving widow and two fatherless children. But Minnesota Democrat Melissa Hortman along with her husband were also gunned down by an assassin’s bullets, leaving behind two now orphaned children.

 

Why is it that our elected political leadership cannot, check that, will not, recognize that America has a political violence problem that crosses party lines, as expressed in these two shootings and their aftermath?

 

Where are the voices from both political parties, indeed from our current president, condemning not just this particular violent act, but all political violence in America, no matter the party? Where are the political leaders of our country willing to step into the shoes of men like Lincoln, Reagan and Clinton, call us together and signal the great virtues of America?

 

Why are some of our leading political leaders so silent on the American scourge of political violence? What is keeping them and even our president from simply saying to the 20 million Americans who believe otherwise… “All political violence is wrong and has no place in America society!”?

 

Is it fear of reprisal? Political weakness? Or is it because they agree with them?

 

THE BRITS GIVE TRUMP A "ROYAL" WELCOME:

 

Projection of Trump and his close friend and pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, on Windsor Castle:

THIS IS HOW AUTHORITARIAN/DICTATOR REGIMES OPERATE:

 

The Trump Regime has scrubbed the truth from the DoJ website stating studies show that domestic terrorism comes almost exclusively from radical right-wingers/MAGA.

Today is 9/16/25. HAPPY TRIPLE SQUARE ROOT DAY!

 

This is what's called a "palate cleanser" -- changing the subject to something pleasant and away from the toxicity of social media around the beatification of a certain right-wing activist.

My son was a math major and the late Mr. Shaw Kenawe was a physics major at MIT.

This is dedicated to them and for all you Pythagorean groupies and math nerds:

Enjoy!

On 9/16/25, celebrate a date of mathematical beauty 

Once a century, a very special day comes along. 

That day is today — 9/16/25. 

 Pi Day (3/14) often comes with sweet treats; 

Square Root Day (4/4/16 or 5/5/25, for example) has a certain numerical rhyme. 

But the particular string of numbers in today's date may be especially delightful to the brains of mathematicians and the casual nerds among us. 

 First, "all three of the entries in that date are perfect squares — and what I mean by that is 9 is equal to 3 squared, 16 is equal to 4 squared, and 25 is equal to 5 squared," says Colin Adams, a mathematician at Williams College who was first tipped off about today's special qualities during a meeting with his former student, Jake Malarkey. Next, those perfect squares come from consecutive numbers — three, four, and five. But perhaps most special of all is that three, four, and five are an example of what's called a Pythagorean triple.

Charlie Kirk in his own words:

ON RACE:

 “If I see a black pilot, I’m going to be like, boy, I hope he’s qualified.”– The Charlie Kirk Show, January 23rd, 2024 

 “If you’re a WNBA, pot-smoking, black lesbian, do you get treated better than a United States marine?” – The Charlie Kirk Show, December 8th, 2022

 “Happening all the time in urban America, prowling blacks go around for fun to go target white people, that’s a fact. It’s happening more and more.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, May 19th, 2023

 “If I’m dealing with somebody in customer service who’s a moronic black woman, I wonder is she there because of her excellence, or is she there because affirmative action?” – The Charlie Kirk Show, January 3rd, 2024

 “If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it for us ... You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, July 13th, 2023

 ON DEBATE:

 “We record all of it so that we put [it] on the internet so people can see these ideas collide. When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence. That’s when civil war happens, because you start to think the other side is so evil, and they lose their humanity.” – Kirk discussing his work in an undated clip that circulated on X after his killing. 

 

ON GENDER AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS:

 “Reject feminism. Submit to your husband, Taylor. You’re not in charge.” – Discussing news of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement on The Charlie Kirk Show, August 26th, 2025

It is rational.” – Event organised by TPUSA Faith, the religious arm of Kirk’s conservative group Turning Point USA, on April 5th, 2023

ON IMMIGRATION:

 “America was at its peak when we halted immigration for 40 years and we dropped our foreign-born percentage to its lowest level ever. We should be unafraid to do that.” – The Charlie Kirk Show, August 22nd, 2025

"He was killed on camera. No one's family deserves to have to witness that. 

It's unthinkably cruel that people would then go on the internet and use their platform to say about an innocent man that: 

'He's not a hero. He's a scumbag.'

I'm talking about George Floyd. You thought I was talking about Charlie Kirk? 

No, those are actual quotes BY Charlie Kirk about George Floyd.

In a 2021 speech in Mankato, Minnesota, Kirk referred to Floyd as a 'scumbag' adding that his death was not worthy of the national attention it received. Without any evidence, the 31-year-old claimed it was caused by an ‘overdose’.

Outrageous that anyone would say that of the dead, right?" --FOUND ON BLUESKY

"It's a simple message whether you are a leftist, a liberal, a centrist, a conservative, or a MAGA fan. Your life has value and your political opponent's lives have value too. You can hate your adversaries ideas and you can fight hard for your cause. But the moment we stop seeing each other as human beings and we start concluding that violence is the answer, that's the moment we let the soulless corporations, the ruthless authoritarians and the sociopathic demagogues win."
