The world has gone inside out, not Upside Down.  What in the world has happened. I believe the Russians have poisoned the water supplies of all Western Countries. Trump's win and audacious claims and Tweet attacks, Germany's decision below, ISIS destroying 2000+ year-old relics and dismembering bodies, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney approving of Torture, and so many strange, unusual acts against mankind and humanity. 


Trump attacked John Lewis today, This small-penised tall Leprechaun who got draft deferments for fictitious foot problems (can't even remember which foot), has the temerity to attack a hero of the Civil Rights movement. Sessions as Attorney General? WHAT? Rick "oops" Perry as Secretary of Energy, the department he forgot he wanted to shut down, a private school owner and advocate to head Education, a guy who lived in poverty 55 years ago for Housing, because he's black? The United States of America is looking like the laughing stock of the World. This, due to a man - excuse me - earwig, who had multiple deferments, cheated people out of house and home in real estate and his own Trump University (which wasn't) and paid people off to get them out of the way. 


Steve Urkle would have made a better person and president.



German court justifies synagogue attack

by Hillel Fendel
A German regional court has ruled that an attempt by three Muslims to burn a synagogue was motivated by 'anti-Israelism', not anti-Semitism. The perpetrators will not be jailed.
The ruling is akin to a “carte blanche for attacks on Jews,” and is itself anti-Semitic, according to the European Jewish Congress. The organization reacted with "outrage and disbelief" to the decision.
The German court in the city of Wuppertal, affirming a lower court decision, ruled that a violent attempt to burn the city's synagogue in 2014 was a justified expression of criticism of Israel’s policies in Gaza. The attack took place on the anniversary of Kristallnacht, a Nazi pogrom which left almost a hundred Jews dead and where over 1,000 synagogues – including the original synagogue in Wuppertal – were burnt and destroyed.
“It is unbelievable that attempts to burn a synagogue have been equated with displeasure of Israeli government policies,” said Dr. Moshe Kantor, President of the EJC. “This court decision equates to open season on Jews.”
The local Wuppertal court panel said in its original 2015 decision that the three Muslims wanted to draw “attention to the Gaza conflict” with Israel. The court deemed the attack not to be motivated by anti-Semitism, and handed down suspended sentences for the three.
“This court decision can also lead to anarchy across Germany," said Kantor, "because it provides a legal justification for the targeting of any minority, religion and nationality on the basis of a conflict that they could be in some way connected to because of religious or national ties. Is it possible that when Arabs are targeted by far-right groups, it could be claimed they are reacting to the bloodshed and violence in the Arab world? That of course would be absurd, but like in many other areas, there appears to be a separate rule when it comes to Jews and anti-Semitism.”
German politician Volker Beck, a leading Green Party MP, agreed. “This is a mistaken decision as far as the motives of the perpetrators are concerned,” he was reported to have said. He noted that the burning of a synagogue in Germany can only be defined as anti-Semitism.
“What do Jews in Germany have to do with the Middle East conflict? Every bit as much as Christians, non-religious people or Muslims in Germany, namely, absolutely nothing. The ignorance of the judiciary toward anti-Semitism is for many Jews in Germany especially alarming,” said Beck.

Trump is now somehow a religious idol

Some religious fanatics have officially gone bonkers. The far right have been pushing a meme for several years now that the amoral creature, conman, egomaniac, and bad person in the WH “has been sent by God to be ‘a vessel for the purposes of the faithful’ in the role of King of the United States of America,” according to Katherine Stewart.  A firefighter picks up a Bible in a moment of revelation and automatically turns to Isaiah 45. Agent Orange is also number 45. Coincidence? I think so. This disclosure is because Cyrus in Isaiah 45, is “saved” and becomes Emperor of Babylon, freeing the Jews. These Christian Nationalists, no relation to the saner version of ages past, believe the adulterer, misogynist, oaf in the White House, who is encouraging them, will save humanity.  Tony Perkins, Ralph Drollinger and V.P Mike Pence support it, as well. Deport them.

The Great builder STILL believes the wall will take three days to build.

  The Moscow Lapdog-in-Chief, stated, “Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally.” This was the first time he ever mentioned the deaths of the children by his own actions and edicts. Those children would not have been protected.  Knowing his intelligence level, he probably believes his wall can be built in three days. Most people think it would take up to fifteen years. Moreover, no one believes it will be effective.   Also on the last days of the year, the megalomaniac froze wages for Federal Workers who have been furloughed; people who are out of work, while the person responsible whines about spending the holidays alone (he did not), dines. He canceled his appearance at the New Year’s Eve Gala at Mar-A-Lago. Investors paid vast amounts of money to be in the same room with him — no refu...

Republican malevolence

The Temp President has created a mess. His vindictive Captain Queeg act and a Captain Ahab, McConnell, at the helm.  Now, a fugleman, Peter Lorre impersonator Lindsey Graham, has decided, amidst the clutter and chaos caused by the new Trump Party, to emulate his not-so-divine leader.  The new Senate Judiciary Chairman has decided during this period of Trump-inspired confusion and disorderliness, to dig up old, settled issues.  He’s decided to use the committee to begin investigations of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton; maybe Benghazi. Of course, this is nothing but another infant being placed in a position of being able to turn on the gas on the kitchen stove. Pampers diapers must be doing great business in D.C. Trump promised that following the elections, he would request these inquiries. Now, as the self-appointed Lord of Congress, he has his sycophants bidding his orders. Neither he nor McConnell nor Graham nor McCarthy nor 53 Senate Republicans ar...
