U.S. 25th Amendment

There is really not much for me to say that hasn’t already been said by the world’s most sane, by the most reasonable, by the most stoic and diplomatic in foreign affairs, by most unbiased news reporters and journalists, and frankly, most good-hearted, authentically patriotic Americans. But now it has become glaringly obvious that our POTUS is, if he hasn’t already, has lost his marbles, his mind, sanity, and any remaining human decency (if there was any) for We the People of the United States and this nation’s good will. And the dissent now includes lawmakers, on both sides of the congressional political aisles.

Miranda Jeyaretnam of Time Magazine and Time.com perfectly sums up in her article what has gone very, very wrong for our POTUS and his MAGA Republican cabinet, as well as for our entire nation:

In his childish tirade early, early this past Easter Sunday morning on his social-media platform for kids, the tantrum-throwing toddler of the United States presidency let loose an ultimatum rant of profanity upon Iran’s ruling regime that would have made Sam Kinison cower in shock. And with each passing day and passing week, as Iran keeps demonstrating repeatedly to U.S. White House officials, Iran’s military leadership, missiles, and will to fight to the bitter end has not wavered, has not been “obliterated back into the stone age,” and certainly shows no signs of further weakening. Those press releases and speeches from the administration are merely half-truths, largely ambiguous, or flat out lies. The bottom-line is that Trump’s war is failing. Period. Time Magazine’s Jeyaretnam continues:

Therefore America and Americans, including congressional lawmakers, it is now time to seriously examine removing our acting, yet mentally and emotionally unstable Commander-in-Chief, from office. If the U.S. congress members, both parties, do not proceed with preparations for invoking the 25th Amendment on Trump, the consequences come Wednesday, April 8, 2026, could be so devastating that the United States economy, along with the rest of the free world’s economies may not recover for decades. This is no joke people! This is no joke federal lawmakers!

I strongly suggest reading Miranda Jeyaretnam’s excellent article, if for no other reason than to be prepared, to be in the know of what seems likely to happen after Wednesday, April 8th. It will be infamous and history making, no doubt. If what should happen does happen, then there is a very apropos poem president tRump should learn and stick to memory, if that’s even possible for him today. Since he likely has never heard of it (Dunne) or understood its poignant and powerful imagery and meaning, then the school-yard bully should’ve learned it and memorized it by high school…

Trump’s Cabinet Selections

I get regular emails from a handful of political outlets that are aligned with my own viewpoints which is left of center for sure. This I don’t mind one bit for many reasons.

I received this email newsletter today:

Left to right — National Security Adviser – Mike Waltz, Chief of Staff – Susie Wiles, and Department of Government Efficiency – Elon Musk

What are your thoughts? Share them. Did you vote this past election year?

If you did not vote, like far too many Americans did not—approximately 7-8 million registered voters did not turnout at the polls—then your silence was beyond horrendously appalling for such a historically unprecedented election year given what was at stake for our country! That is the sole reason tRump and Republicans won so many positions of government! Sad, very very sad America.

Back with an Olive-branch Axe!

Now that I’m further settled into my new, but semi-temporary Dallas home, I want to throw out this return to WordPress post to all of you. Get your thoughts on two very popular stirring subjects:  Politics and Indoctrination. Do the two belong together? Should the two be one in the same? Have the two ever been truly seperate?

To kick this off I want to share these two YouTube videos:

Political —

Indoctrination, or coerced Indoctrination and the results

(paragraph break)

How much truth and accuracy do all of you feel/think these videos represent? Share your thoughts on my four questions! Let me hear/read it…
