Destroyer of worlds
Happy Friday. There are 613 days until the midterm elections. Paying for tornado warnings, the freaks are fighting and Elump is gonna kill a whole lot of people.
Be advised: This newsletter uses excessive profanity. We added the word “excessive” because it really is a shitload of cussing.
Note: Howdy, Sexy Patriots! Congratulations on making it through February. We know it’s a short month, but it was the first full month under President Shit-for-brains and we’re damn proud of you for getting through it. We are reminded of the old expression that when you’re going through hell, keep going. And remember it could be worse — you could be in Florida.
That’s where Trump’s sex-trafficking rapist friends landed yesterday after they were mysteriously freed from Romania. Trump lied and pretended like he didn’t know anything about it, but even Ron fucking DeSantis was appalled…
Do y’all have any idea how repugnant you have to be to get condemned by that asshole? In case you forgot, Ron DeScumbag had a map of poop in his pocket during a debate and eats pudding with his fingers. He is himself quite a disgusting individual and even he is like whoa can we not let the international human traffickers come here? Maybe the idiots fighting over the Epstein files can wash the dumbfuck from their eyes and start asking why bringing rapists to the U.S. was more of a priority for Trump than lowering egg prices. Or they can just keep being the fucking worst. Y’all have a blessed day.
Note two: That poop map thing is real by the way. Just in case folks forgot. More: SF Chronicle
Note three: Today is the economic boycott! Cash only! And try not to judge Sam who forgot and bought a sausage egg mcmuffin this morning. Even though he clearly fucked this whole thing up. Thanks a lot, Sam.
Note four: We just saw a big drop in consumer spending. Get ready for the Trumpcession. And get ready for him to blame it on Biden even though he’s the one who just fucked up a pretty good economy. More: The Globe and Mail
Note five: Trump is gonna sign an executive order making English the official language of the U.S. today. It has inspired us to get Duo Lingo and learn how to say “go fuck yourself, orangey” in many, many different languages. More: NBC
Note six: We swear to God, New York. If y’all elect Cuomo again, then we’re breaking up. More: CNN
Note seven: That fucking loser kicker from the Kansas City Chiefs went to the White House to meet Trump. Aren’t these the same assholes who have spent years complaining about participation trophies? More: CBS Sports
Note eight: We sometimes get requests to quit cussing so much. Shit like this is why that will never happen…
Note nine: We are big fans of the comedian Bill Burr. That’s especially true now that he’s calling Ben Shapiro a “jerk off.” Git his ass, Bill. More: Variety
Note 10: We don’t mean to brag, but we’ve been telling Jake Tapper to fuck off long before it was cool. Still, he can fuck off. More: Guardian
Note 11: Trump suddenly forgot that he called Zelensky a dictator. You probably didn’t hear about it because Biden didn’t do it. More: HuffPost
Note 12: Elon Leon has gotten really close with Stephen Miller, and that friendship is the punishment we would wish on both of them. Well that and really painful syphilis. More: Wired
Note 13: Leon also tried to sic his gross mob on Norm Eisen and his daughter. Except Leon got the wrong woman. That’s probably the only mistake he’s made this week though. Well that and the whole ebola thing. More: The Daily Beast
Note 14: It’s always so embarrassing when you get caught adjusting your cocaine face on camera…
Note 15: Wanna hear something crazy that would have been a national scandal under Biden? The Worst Lady just announced the White House Easter Egg Roll yesterday. Where the fuck are they gonna get the eggs?! More: The Hill
Note 16: We’re gonna talk about this in the news section, but here’s that Libs of TikTok scum smiling and posing with the so-called Epstein files yesterday. You can really see just how much she cares about the victims…
Note 17: If you need some laughs — and we all do these days — check out Running Point on Netflix. We started it last night and were dying. Also, Animal Control and St. Denis Medical are pretty funny too. More: NBC
Note 18: It’s sure starting to seem like Canadians have more self-respect than we do. It’s also pretty hilarious when Trump fucks up right-wing politics in other countries. More: HuffPost
Note 19: Grab the tissues for this one
Note 20: For today’s Happy Ending, we just want to tell you we love you. We know how fucking horrible and scary everything is right now, but you are not alone. We’re all stuck in this goddamn nightmare together. So please keep your head up, take breaks and fight like hell. Here’s Billy Strings singing “No Rain.” Love y’all!
Flurries of fucked up
You know the people who warn us about hurricanes and tornadoes and tsunamis? Well they’re all being fired, and it seems pretty obvious that Trump and Elon Leon are gonna privatize weather warnings. So if you want to know if a tornado is about to take out your house, fork over some scratch for a new app. With climate change intensifying and storms becoming more deadly, this is a really good move if you’re rooting for the storms. Otherwise it’s just fucking idiotic.

Freak fight!
So yesterday was supposed to be a big deal for the online losers who have been clamoring for the “Epstein files” while pretending like their orange daddy wasn’t Epstein’s best friend. As we posted earlier, a bunch of right-wing scum went to get their special files from AG Pam Bondi. Except there really wasn’t anything in them because this was always a stupid conspiracy theory and the horrible truth is out there for everyone to see. But the disappointment led these freaks to attack AG Pam Bondi, who turned around and blamed in on FBI Director Kash Patel. Our guess is that Patel and Bondi will make some shit up instead of facing more attacks from the weirdos.

Destroyer of worlds
We need to be very clear about one incontrovertible fact — Elon Musk and Donald Trump are going to kill a lot of people. Under their bullshit leadership, the U.S. is cutting funding for polio, malaria, H.I.V. and nutrition programs. So get ready for more Trump plagues to kill millions. We were chilled to the bone by this quote from Dr. Catherine Kyobuntungi in the New York Times: “People will die,” she said. “But we will never know because even the programs to count the dead are cut.” Between this and the attacks on healthcare here at home, it sure feels like the super rich are trying to thin the herd. So stay alive and piss off a billionaire.

Our Psychological and Political Pandemic 'It's Even Worse than You Think' THE NEWSLETTER OF DR. BANDY X. LEE
🔸️Mental pathology in a president is a public matter, on which the public needs to be informed, more than anyone else, when its own safety and survival are at stake.
The more severe the mental pathology the less one will recognize that one is even ill. " Insight", or self-awareness, is one of the first things to go, when one spirals into mental pathology.
🔸️Our systems have failed to prevent his candidacy in the first place. We have yet to institute mental fitness screens for the most important position on the planet - while every other job that deals with life or death has a mental fitness evaluation as a requirement, even before one takes the position. When this is not available, the public needs to be educated about the risks as much as possible, especially when they involve conditions that elude detection, manipulate others into collusion, and resist their own management, as mental disorders do.
The American Psychiatric Association is perhaps responsible for the greatest harm to the public by a health association in U.S. history. The American Psychological Association's torture program, or the American Medical Association's blockage of universal healthcare, now pales in comparison.
By aggressively silencing conscientious mental health professionals from the public arena, the American Psychiatric Association prevented accountability for harm to the public's mental health, when science points to the critical importance of education as a public health intervention ("insight" at the societal level)--and of open discussion for the reduction of stigma.
Instead, the Association has become responsible not only for the up to 1.2 million American deaths from Covid-19, but the current psychological and political pandemic that is threatening to enable and enlarge future pandemics, to destroy democracy and the world Order, and to bring civilization to its knees.
🔸️I recall when pundits used to say during the first Trump administration: "Things are bad, but at least we know we have reached the bottom." No, there was no bottom then, nor is there now. It's much worse than you think - and the viability of our future depends on whether we will accept the rapidly-deteriorating status quo because of convenience, politeness, or a desire to keep one's pension, or will find it unacceptable. It depends on insight.
