My apologies for not being around. I have dealt with some health stuff and been really swamped over the last part of 2025 and into this first month of 2026. I did not intend to be silent and I am happy to see you all and I hope David still stops in to comment. 

The thing is, when I post, I am likely going to have a lot to say...most of it is not going to be good. I trust all of us here are pretty up to date on what is happening in our country and what it means for us and the world. I am here, I am with you, I want us to make a comeback, as a nation, as a people, as a light in the world, maybe better than we have ever been. Maybe, we can learn from the mistakes we made as a nation, by giving power to someone that should have never been given power. 

How many times will we ask when his followers will see through his lies? Will it be too late when they do? Is it too late already?

It is feeling like we are all being forced to move out onto this very thin branch and the branch is bending, and soon it will give way and break. The Trump side, those that still follow him, want it to break, want to send us plummeting downward to a horrible fate. 

I talked in posts before Trump was elected this time about what his "list" might look like and what he would want to achieve. He immediately started going down it. One of the big ones at the start would be pardoning the J6 criminals. Check, done. The importance of that was to show, if you commit crimes for Trump, you will be considered a hero and given a pass. It would embolden these people and it has. Now they are free to shoot mothers in the face, execute them on camera for the world to see. The president, vice president, and head of Homeland Security, right after the execution openly praised and supported the execution. Of a 37 year old mother of a boy of 6. We were shown it, by video taken by the man who executed her. 

She smiled at him and was kind to this man, said kind words in a gentle voice, only 15 seconds before he shot her three times in the face. Her son will never see his mom again. Had to have someone explain to him why his mom would not be coming home. Someday, curious, when he is older he will likely go looking for the video of his mother's execution. 

He will see her, her gentle smile, hear her words "I'm not mad at you, bro." 

That voice that had always meant comfort and warmth and love to him. He will recognize that voice, the smile, the gentle woman that was his mother. Tears will come, sadness will fill his heart. A loss that will leave a hole in his life that can never be filled. A longing that will never go away. A wound that will never heal. He will see video of the president sneering his mom was a terrorist, the vice president of the United States saying it was right to execute her in the street, the Secretary of Homeland Security saying it was a perfect and just execution and the officer did an excellent job killing his mom. 

His mom's last words will ring in his head "I'm not mad at you, bro." and he will see that warm and gentle smile that once was his world. 

And he will remember the last words in the video; the last words you hear on it from the man that shot his mom in the face three times. There is no compassion in them, nothing gentle, no concern over sticking his gun in her window, putting it right in her face, and blowing her brains all over his toys that were scattered in the passenger seat. He will see their dog sitting there in the backseat. These words will haunt him. 

"Fucking bitch." his mother's murderer says. Cold, nasty, sneered as the president sneered that she was a terrorist. He's not contrite, he is happy he slaughtered her. Happy he took her life...and so was the president of the United States, and the vice president, and the head of Homeland security. All glad she was executed and how wonderfully and properly it was done. 

This boy lost his mom, her love and kindness, and his country. He can watch all of it taken from him in all of about 15 seconds. 

Why did that happen? Because our president wanted it to happen and made sure it would happen. He put the executioners on the street and told them "Great job!"

"Fucking bitch."

We live in this country now. We can't take that back. It happened, that boy's mom is gone. The next day you can watch members of the ICE gestapo laughing about it while they harass other people on the streets of Minnesota. They laugh and are having a great time. 

Renee Good is gone and so is our humanity as a nation. In one brief moment that someday, that boy is likely to watch. 

Who would wish that on that boy? On us as a country? Who would want us to see that? To endure that?

A man named Donald Trump. He shouted at the people of Minnesota after one of his men killed her:

"FEAR NOT, GREAT PEOPLE OF MINNESOTA, THE DAY OF RECKONING & RETRIBUTION IS COMING!"

He does not mean for the murderer of a 37 year old mom, he is not shouting for justice for that little boy. He is shouting that he will kill anybody and everybody he chooses to kill if they question what he is doing. He is telling that little boy, "Your mom deserved to die and won't be the last."

"Fucking bitch."
