SPIRITUAL EXTORTION AND FINANCIAL GRAFT MASQUERADING AS RELIGION

This isn't religion. It's spiritual extortion and financial graft masquerading as religion. And why is it when this idiot speaks in tongues it's OK, but speaking Spanish at a Burger King gets a Trump supporting low-life bent out of shape? These people are idiots.



What these Evangelicals are doing make the "indulgences" of the Catholic Church in the 1600's look like petty dice games.

AMERICA'S LIVING A LIE ... IT ALWAYS HAS

America is living through "a moment when many of the norms we have been taught to admire have been revealed as a shell game for suckers. As Trumpism took hold in the nation in 2015, it was regarded as a kind of temporary madness. But time has revealed that this vulgar spirit is no aberration. It was there all along ...".

Put another way, Trump's has dragged the worst part of America - bigotry, greed, the ghosts of genocide and slavery, and fake Christianity - and that's not a good thing.

SMUGGLERS DEFEATING TRUMP'S BILLION DOLLAR WALL WITH "REVOLUTIONARY" (and dirt cheap) SAW AND LADDER TECHNOLOGY

Incredibly, for just $129.00 you too can cut through Donald Trump's $10 billion wall (cheaper if you're a bargain hunter). Via MSN we get this story on smuggler efforts to make Trump's border wall about as effective as his yearly budgets have been on our national debt. Introducing the border story of the smuggler's incredible, but not so surprising, "saw and ladder" technology ...

SAN DIEGO —Smuggling gangs in Mexico have repeatedly sawed through new sections of President Trump’s border wall in recent months by using commercially available power tools, opening gaps large enough for people and drug loads to pass through, according to U.S. agents and officials with knowledge of the damage. 
The breaches have been made using a popular cordless household tool known as a reciprocating saw that retails at hardware stores for as little as $100. When fitted with specialized blades, the saws can slice through one of the barrier’s steel-and-concrete bollards in a matter of minutes, according to the agents, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the barrier-defeating techniques.

After cutting through the base of a single bollard, smugglers can push the steel out of the way, allowing an adult to fit through the gap. Because the bollards are so tall — and are attached only to a panel at the very top — their length makes them easier to push aside once they have been cut and are left dangling, according to engineers consulted by The Washington Post. 
The taxpayer-funded barrier — so far coming with a $10 billion price tag — was a central theme of Trump’s 2016 campaign, and he has made the project a physical symbol of his presidency, touting its construction progress in speeches, ads and tweets. Trump has increasingly boasted to crowds in recent weeks about the superlative properties of the barrier, calling it “virtually impenetrable” and likening the structure to a “Rolls-Royce” that border-crossers cannot get over, under or through. 
The smuggling crews have been using other techniques, such as building makeshift ladders to scale and overtop the barriers, especially in the popular smuggling areas in and around San Diego, according to nearly a dozen U.S. agents and current and former administration officials.

Yeah, this isn't rocket science (though, it might as well be for Donald Trump and his supporters). The border wall "saw and ladder" depiction below is from the Washington Post.

TRUMP'S NUTS ... AND A TRAITOR TO BOOT

This is freakin' nuts. Seriously, who goes after their own intelligence agencies by asking other countries to help discredit his nation's intelligence community just to fight their impeachment? A lunatic who's guilty as sin, that's who.

________________

One more thing. Most of the G-7 nations think Trump's nuts too. French President Macron has already floated the idea that the G-7 could do with a "G-6" because of Trump's antics.

And the Republican Party, led by Bakersfield's own Kevin McCarthy, thinks this is just fine.
