Without Excuse (The Enchanted World Chronicles, Two.)

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: ~Romans 1:20

.....

Build cohesive teams through mutual trust.
Create shared understanding.
Provide clear intent.
Exercise disciplined initiative
Use mission orders.
Accept prudent risk.
~U.S. Armed Forces Principles Of Command.

When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything. ~Umberto Eco

"The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride." ~Volodymyr Zelenskyy, allegedly 25 February 2022, Associated Press

Donald Trump is threatening a "Bloodbath" and mass murder and violent ethnic cleansing if he loses the election. 

Donald Trump has also threatened a "Bloodbath" and mass murder and violent ethnic cleansing if he wins the election.

Motherfucker came right out and said it in Ohio over the weekend, and he also said that undocumented immigrants "weren't people."

As if it's Government or the will of Power that determines one's Humanity. In other words, these fucking people think There Is No God who created us and decides that. They think they do.

I'm a put it this way: Donald Trump wants a Bloodbath.

And the motherfucker probably thinks he is "God."

He wants a vicious ethnic and racial war with his fucking name on it. He wants a "Mr. Trump's War" and he thinks such a thing happening would be good. And if you think he's only going to go after migrants...which itself would devastate multiple US industries, not least agriculture and construction...you have another thing coming. These motherfuckers want to go after everybody who's not a rich straight White Evangelical Christian male and kill them or put them in chains. Yes, ladies, they mean you too.

So, basically it's like this; 

We're the ones who get to pick if it's the United States Armed Forces and Government collectively turning against their own people, with only those who remember that their oaths are not to a Man or that otherwise have both courage and integrity switching sides and fighting with us...

Or whether all Trump gets is whatever raggedy-ass militias, Russian agents and turncoats and traitors flock to his banner, and there will be some...but speaking as a United States Air Force veteran here, even one is too many.

At least we get a choice.

Choose wisely, America.

My read on the situation is that Trump is losing, hell, has lost or he wouldn't be talking crazy shit this bad and the media that wants him wouldn't be trying this hard to bullshit people.

But Trump and his fucking goons are going to try and kill Americans...and anybody else they get their hands on...anyway, either way it goes. 

Well, maybe any Russians will be safe. Why do I say that, you ask?

Vladimir Putin was reelected as President of Russia in an election that a lot of outside observers say was a sham, and I don't know how anybody's surprised. Like anything else was going to happen??

You either believe in freedom or you don't...and the Russians clearly don't.

But I rather doubt that Trump and all his freakish enablers and goons are brave enough to bite the hand that feeds them.

And feed them, it will.

Otherwise this treasonous ass-clown would still be looking forward to, at best, washing dishes for twelve cents an hour and maybe a couple hours a week hitting golf balls on the prison driving range.

That's right. Mike Pence declined to endorse, but Paul Manafort is back, back again. Pauly's back, tell a friend.

Seriously, fuck these motherfuckers.

If you haven't figured out by now that these utter fucking scumbags are not on your side, I can't help you.

Or maybe I just don't want to.

I wonder if Paul Manafort thinks he's gonna get paid, or otherwise support his expensive lifestyle of sexual excesses and sucking up to murderous authoritarians?

At this point, my money's on "No."

But I'm not sure people like Paul Manafort care, I mean that dude was just as happy to support Angolan rebel leader Jonas Savimbi as he was to lobby for all sorts of dictatorial shit-birds who held actual political office, so don't doubt that if it goes the way I think it will and Trump loses, it'll be Paul Manafort's job to pitch Trump as some kind of Christian Warrior Poet to politicians in Russia...or some shit like that. 

And he'll probably be successful enough at it, and their politicians craven enough to keep funding Trump's genocidal revolt for years past any actual effective need for it, because brain-dead, bloody minded ideology is all these fucking people have.

And they don't seem to want anything else.

Anything but America.

Anything but Freedom, for everybody.

Anything but "Love Thy Neighbor."

You vote for these fucking people, for their conspiracy theories and their Enchanted World of hate and hocus pocus and magic, all you're gonna get is blood on ya.

And it might just be your own.

Слава Україна!
