Trump’s War.

What is he good for?

By Keith Thomas

7/29/2026

WAR!

Warmonger Trump.

IRAN SKIRMISH

Trump calls the IRAN WAR a “skirmish.”[1] [2] He got us into it and now doesn’t know how the fuck to get us out of it. AND the war is starting to spread. Trump has put the entire Middle East in crisis, and the war is starting to spread as other combatants enter the picture.[3] [4]

The White Christian Nationalists of the Heritage foundation that are running the government and Trump’s incompetent administration are supporting all of Trump’s wars. Wars that he campaigned against REPEATEDLY for years.[5] Trump even went so far as to say that he would end the war against Ukraine on Day One when he took office.[6] Trump said that he would do a LOT on that first day, but I digress.

Trump calls the war against Iran a skirmish. It’s a skirmish that is quickly burning through America’s stockpile of defensive missiles, offensive missiles, bombs, etc. and making our military and standing with the world weaker. Nobody likes a war monger.

WAR WITH IRAN. Trump started it with his fellow war monger Netanyahu of Israel. Iran responded by closing the strait of Hormuz by mining it and attacking shipping. Russia and China are provided aid to Iran.[7]

Trump continues to fund Israel’s genocide campaign against Palestinians. Tens of thousands of innocents have been killed and more are being killed as you read these words.

No end in sight.

FAST AND LOOSE

Let’s talk about other Trump Wars.

WAR AGAINST AMERICAN DEMOCRACY. Trump put armed agents on our streets to enforce his policies of suppression of civil rights and the rule of law, to be replaced with the rule of Trump. His MAGA Supremes gave him the immunity to do anything he wants and pardon anybody that runs afoul of the law doing his bidding. Trump talks like an authoritarian because he is an authoritarian. Fuhrer Trump.

All bow down.

WAR AGAINST the ECONOMY. Until Trump stepped in our economic recovery from Covid was envied by the rest of the world. Then Trump trashed it with his on again off again illegal tariffs and drunk spending. Average Americans are facing higher costs in core needs like gas, groceries, utilities, meat.

WAR AGAINST HEALTHCARE. Health insurance premiums have increased substantially, causing millions to have to do without it.

WAR AGAINST EPSTEIN/TRUMP VICTIMS. For the Trump administration the Epstein/Trump victims are the guilty parties and treated accordingly. They are the ones being investigated and having to give testimony before Congress. They are the ones being ignored by the MAGA R Congress. Trump’s DOJ is protecting Trump and all the other offenders and pedophiles in the Epstein files.

Imagine that.

WAR AGAINST IMMIGRANTS It’s a real war being waged against brown people both here and abroad. It’s a war of violence.[8] People are dying in custody.[9] 52 so far.[10] People In detention are being beaten, sexually abused, kept in overcrowded cells, denied medical assistance, denied medications, denied food.[11] Federal detention standards are being violated.[12] Men. Women. Children. Killing them all.

Letting God sort them out.

WAR AGAINST VENEZUELA. Trump had our military attack Venezuela and kidnap their dictator President Maduro and his wife. Then Trump had a proxy installed as President that answers to Rubio.[13] So, is Rubio the Co-President of Venezuela now? Talk about lucky breaks. Trump wanted access to their natural resources so he can grift from them.

Yet another coup.

WAR AGAINST THE REFLECTING POOL. Man! That poor old Reflecting Pool went down hard. Try as they might, the PEMS (Pool Emergency Maintenance Service could not save it.) All that remains is a shell, skin flapping in the breeze and the memory days of days gone past of families enjoying it in the hot summer.

It never had a chance.

WAR AGAINST GREENLAND. What in the world did Greenland do to Trump? Do they not have a Micky Ds? They haven’t done anything to the U.S. other than be a good ally. Did Putin tell Trump to trash Greenland because they host our military bases? I wonder if Trump can take Greenland in three days?

Hope we don’t find out.

WAR WITH CUBA. Trump is also threatening military action against Cuba and says that he can do anything he wants with it.[14] Yes really. First he’ll have to finish up the war with Iran and not start it back up again and again and again. If we attack Cuba the first thing that they are going to do is blow the shit out of Guantanamo Bay and everybody there. Cuba, like Iran, knows they can’t win. They just have to not lose.

Remember the Bay of Pigs?

WAR AGAINST DECENCY

Trump is the most venal, petty, sociopathic President that America has ever had. It’s like he was born to steal, grift, and destroy whatever he touches. He likes the losers he surrounds himself with, though he literally loves no one but himself. His enablers make sure that…

Trump can do anything he wants.

MAKE AMERICA WHITE AGAIN

Picture is AI by Craiyon

MAKE AMERICA WHITE AGAIN!

Six lean whites first!

By Keith Thomas

7/26/2026

Robert’s courts’ SIX Christian White Nationalists.

“The Roberts Court sees only white. It refuses to acknowledge who the Equal Protection Clause was written to protect.” (Other comments.) The Court overrides what Congress passed. It overrides what the people chose. All to serve its own ends. What this Court has done to constitutional rights, democratic institutions, and the rule of law explains why Hawaiʻi’s Constitution takes no instruction from it.” [1] –Hawaii Supreme Court Justice Todd Eddins

The end note for the above quote references an excellent article. I was well into this post before I read the article and feel vindicated in my layman’s deductions.

Other conservative Judges have taken issue with rulings from the MAGA Gang of 6 Supremes as well. Retired conservative federal judge Michael Luttig has been critical of Trump, the Republican Party and the Supreme Court.[2] Luttig is the judge that counseled VP Pence to do his job and certify the election. This from Judge Luttig:

"These pleas would never have to occur if the Supreme Court of the United States had reassured America that it sits in order to prevent this kind of tyranny in the United States of America. But as you know, the Supreme Court has done anything but reassure America. That's why, for the first time to my knowledge — in all of American history — the federal judges and also the state judges now have no choice but to speak directly to the American people through their opinions, I must add, rather than speak only to the Supreme Court of the United States."[3]

WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS.

Evil and cruelty are the foundation for all the core beliefs of MAGA. Bigotry. Racism. Misogyny. Ignorance. The white Christian nationalists running Trump’s fascist regime are doing their best to achieve these beliefs by tearing our government apart in order to build their white fascist utopia. Our Alzheimer’s suffering President as court jester provides the perfect cover for their actions.

As just one tiny example of yet another White Nationalist Project 2025 goal being fulfilled, our MAGA government was dismantling 900 ocean data collecting buoys until the Senate voted unanimously to stop the dismantling.[4] [5] [6] [7] The buoys collected ocean data to help track climate change. Their installation cost $368 million and went operational in 2016 during Trump’s first term. The data is critical to research that will help humanity understand and deal with climate change. But MAGAts don’t believe in climate change.

For MAGA knowledge is dangerous and rejected.

ROBERT’S SUPREMES BACK MAGA

First Robert’s Supremes gave Trump immunity. They placed an evil man above the law. Trump has been both out of control and in complete control ever since. He operates without restrictions, and pardons those that do his bidding or give him money when they get in trouble.[8] The DOJ works for Trump, investigating, and charging those Trump wants charged.

The Roberts Supreme Court has made Trump, MAGA, and White Christian nationalists’ fascism possible. They gave MAGA the enabling tools. Under Roberts and the conservative majority, they have ruled consistently in fascism’s favor thereby providing the legal framework for them to achieve their goal. They are creating a different society, a different America, a fascist America and they are getting to see the fruits of their labor in real time. They can watch it on the corporate oligarch news.

But try as he might Justice Clarence Thomas will still never be white enough for the White Christian Nationalists even with his white J6 traitor wife. His whiter-than-white, wealthier-than-wealthy benefactors have been buying his loyalty in the old-fashioned political way for thirty years. They took care of him and did nice things for him like provide expensive vacations to resorts, plane rides on private jets, helicopter rides, expensive tickets to sporting events, cruises on yachts, etc. Thomas didn’t bother to report these gifts.[9]

Billionaire Harlan Crow bought property from Thomas including the house his mom lived in and promptly started renovating it.[10] Thomas didn’t report this either.

Other Justices received the same kinds of largess, but they reported receiving theirs.

Supreme Court Justices aren’t poor. Chief Justice Roberts is worth at least $20 million,[11] while Justice Barrett comes in at a paltry $4 million.[12] Would it surprise you to know that the conservative Justices are worth way more than the liberal Justices? The total combined wealth of the court is in the neighborhood of $65 million. Liberals have less than 20% of that.

Justice Barrett and her husband are members of a small religious sect that believes in speaking in tongues and that homosexuals are sinful. Her husband is a legal counsel for …wait for it… Fox News (Rupert Murdock).

MAGA Supremes have been key in helping Trump undermine We the People’s respect for the courts with their decisions and shadow docket shenanigans. They have made more shadow docket decisions than they have in open court for the first time in history.[13] More often than not the MAGA Supremes Gang of 6 side with Trump.[14]

Look for that to continue.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

There’s a guy on social media called “the Jolly Ginger.” In a rant the other day he said that the line had been crossed a long time ago about what needs to be done to reject our nation’s slide into fascism.

We do NOT need more violence or civil war. PERIOD. I do not think that is what the Jolly Ginger was/is advocating but I want to make clear my position.

A refrain that I see often from social media influencers is that in order to hold onto our democracy the United States is moving towards a revolution. Never a desirable outcome BUT are they right? The resistance is NOT there yet. I fervently hope that it doesn’t come to that conclusion.

Another constant refrain from influencers like Heather Cox Richardson, a national treasure, is that all of us need to do something even if it is small. Witnessing and writing is what I do.

Do something.
