It does bear a strong resemblance to some of the orange one’s Truth Social output.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

My ability to remember 70s lyrics far outweighs my ability to remember what the fuck I walked into the kitchen for..

It's worth reading this! It is excerpts from the dissenting judges to the Supreme Court ruling in Trumps favor in the Trump v Casa case etc.It shows clearly that, in the dissenting judges views, that the Supreme Court has given up protecting the US constitution and as one dissenting judge says 'the Court’s decision to permit the Executive to violate the Constitution with respect to anyone who has not yet sued is an existential threat to the rule of law'.

I am afraid the Courts and judges are fighting a losing battle in trying to fend off Trump and his impending Dictatorship. As Green says 'instead of checking and balancing Trump, Congress and the courts are nodding and clapping instead.'

The US is lost!

The money in the Big Beautiful Bill (the GOP are in thrall to his pomposity) for ICE and detention centres is astounding - and there no way they're not going to be used as basically a terror weapon against "dissidents ".

Meanwhile, Trump, rambling on about people having to borrow money to pay death duties, compares borrowing from a "fine banker" as opposed to "shylocks and bad people". I await the universal condemnation from the usual sources with keen anticipation .

It's private army stuff basically. They already go around without warrants or identification. Fake law enforcement becomes even easier when official law enforcement don't behave as they should. Terrifying stuff.

Anyone who still claims the US can survive this onslaught from the far right, racist, evangelical nazis needs their heads examined! The courts are still fighting a rear guard action but have lost the battle - see
