running down the dream

Yes, my old hippie self is a Tom Petty fan.  Also I have no idea why I thought of him today.  That song, in particular.  I have not posted much about the political climate lately because it's scary.  I watch a broad enough range of news that I realize there are two realities out there.....the ones who are standing by Trump and not listening to conscience.  And the ones who know better and do bette  because it is the honorable way to treat the people who trusted you with a vote.  

This has nothing to do with the Epstein Files.  I believe the whole thing is a distraction so that more of the government's power can be spread.  There are Americans in prisons who have no criminal records. They are afraid of going to work because of ICE.  Judges are being labeled rogue and getting fired  Not even rogut...just boom you're gone unless you are a Trumpster. This is also disturbing.  I can guaranteed you if somebody came at me with a mask and outfit from Walmart I would run like only a 70 year old can.  They will catch me of course!  

Of course then there is the economy.  The teriffd deals are a hoax and we have lost our standing as a world leader.  They laugh at us because the country is being led by a bunch of ladder climbers with no experience in their respective departments.  Fox News hosts and whatnot.  

What Elon has done, and Putin too, is to gaslight the administration knowing that nobody has a clue.  Two weeks. Fifty days.  Yo' mama.  Do I think what they did was evil?  Damn right I do.  But there is a lot at stake here and if you believe the Simpsons he'll be gone in August.  CHF maybe?  Vascular issues.  When people are looking for signs they will find them, even with makeup on.  I could care less.  What we get with Vance should be interesting because he is much smarter and more cunning that bumbly old DJT.  Therin lies the danger.

Which brings me to Colbert who got canned by his network.  Some say, as I believe, that it was precipitated by Paramount's payout to Trump over the 60 Minutes piece.  That was the most frivulous lawsuit ever filed and they caved so they can get his highness to let them have a merger.  I love comedy of all types.  I used to watch Kristin Hampton doing podcasts from her car while testing random shady products she found.  Hilarious!  I grew up with SNL and still watch while enjoying the antics of late night hosts.  Ironically, Colbert will probably get higher ratings for the remainder of his contract which ends in May.  I feel sure the network didn't want to have to pay it out...lol

These are just my observations and they don't count for much in this world.  I'm just enough of a sap to believe that we all stand up peacefully together we can find some semblance of decency.  Jesus is sitting right here on the desk and He says it's possible.  And we all know he don't lie ^j^
