And now for a Dot Calm sing-along... 🎶 It's beginning to look a lot like treason! 🎶
13 July 2017 update:
Greetings, fellow Dot Calm Readers, Freedom Fighters, and Truth Crusaders!
I've been putting a lot of overtime in at work, and I'm heading out of town to visit my bestie tomorrow, so I don't have a lot of time to blawg today...
Gonna blawg...blawg like the wind...!
So, Imma leave a few thots here for you to discuss among yourselves til next time.
1. There should be NO goddamn hearings for Christopher Wray AT ALL. Republicans' sole purpose in having hearings for Christopher Wray right now--as the world is falling down around their earz--is to discredit the FBI. Especially Comey and Mueller. Of course, they're defaming McCabe as a Clinton-McAuliffe toady who talked smack about Flynn while investigating him. I'm sure they're also trying to redirect news cycles away from don junior's admitted TREASON. Did you know that, in his lust to discredit the FBI, Grassley went as far back as Jedgar? ...Should we tell him that Jedgar was a REPUBLICAN?
2. Disgusting, vile human being Betsy DeVos actually consulted a men's rights group about campus rape. I'm sure that those men feel it's their right to rape whomever they want on any campus or anywhere without repercussions.
3. tRump's latest "defense" against charges of treason is phuquen laughable. The TRAITOROUS GOP's party line du jour is to blame Loretta Lynch for letting the Russky spy lady into the country--as if, if the lady spy had been denied her visa here, poor little Vladdy would neBer have had another h00min bean in the w-h-o-l-e wide country to use in her stead to bait and reel in the grasping, gullible tRump klan. Like I said, worse defense EVAR.
4. Ridiculous tRump "defense," part too! This is hi-larious: tRump claims that PEWtin wanted HILLARY to win! LOL!! As if PEWtin wanted Hillary to maintain or increase the sanctions against him and keep his sneaky, slimy, skulking ass in check, relegating him to the murky, dank backwoods and swamp waters of the civilized world--where he belongs.
As always, dear ones, there's w-a-y more to tell than I can possibly do justice to. Hang tight, keep reading, keep fighting--keep Resistbotting--and keep the faith til we meet again.
MWAH!

Here's what I told them--feel free to use any and all of it! You're welcome!
America cannot maintain national sovereignty if we allow foreign powers to interfere in our elections, as Putin did in 2016. His success and the GOP's countenance of his effort only emboldens him to interfere more broadly in our future elections.
You MUST do everything you can to stop foreign interference in our elections, be it from Putin or any other foreign national.
You must also do everything you can to keep our elections free and fair for all eligible Americans. Please do what you can to stop political gerrymandering and vote suppression, both of which greatly weaken our democracy and thus our long-term prospects as a nation.

Greetings, fellow Dot Calm Readers, Freedom Fighters, and Truth Crusaders!
Dunno about you, but the news cycle seems to be shorter than four hours with tRump squatting in the White House. Cheez. There's so much going on that I'm going to let the headlines tell the story...I can't keep up.
I think it's obvious right now why I'm calling for a massive, all-out voter drive: we have to recruit and enable two Democratic voters for every one the Republicans turn away.
But the strike?
tRump taking emoluments hand over fist? UNNACEPTABLE!
tRump letting his st00pit kid sit in on his G20 meeting? UNACCEPTABLE!
tRump ceding world leadership, destroying the government from the inside, and committing to torching the planet by accelerating global warming? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!
tRump offering PEWtin control of OUR elections and OUR power grid? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!
tRump and his whole disgusting, greasy, trashy klan teaming up with PEWtin to hijack our election, as evidenced by junior's e-mails? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!!
Neither Democrats nor Republicans shutting down the government, revoking Sessions's and Kushner's and, indeed, the whole repulsive lot's clearances...removing Gorsuch from SCOTUS...or invalidating the election and calling for a new, special election? UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Friends, we CANNOT let the massive corruption across the entire Republican party stand.
We CANNOT let tRump's massive corruption stand.
We CANNOT let tRump's family's massive corruption stand.
And we CANNOT let all of the tRump-Republican TREASON stand.
It doesn't matter how much or how little they grouch--if politicians on both sides of the aisle don't IMPEACH tRump and remove his entire administration and all of his appointees and nominees from office, THEY ARE COMPLICIT.
WE CANNOT ALLOW this to stand as business as usual.
For as outrageous as Republican behavior has become, WE must shut down the machine by getting out into the streets--every last patriotic one of us.
GENERAL STRIKE NOW--SPECIAL ELECTION NOW!!!!!

The Daily Beast: Putin's Dirty Game in the U.S. Congress
...The tRump team met with a Kremlin-linked lawyer during the campaign. Did I say "Kremlin-linked"? Alas
--it's an "old" article (given that the life cycle of most tRump stories seems to be 4-16 hours). Turns out that the lady isn't Kremlin-linked--she's Kremlin, as in "lobbyist." And here you thot that PEWtin's motivation was merely half a TRILLION dollars' worth of oil sanctions? Well, there's moar tuit than that--go Google the Magnitsky Act, which disallows human rights violators from traveling to the U.S. Magnitsky was captured as a political prisoner and tortured and murdered by the Kremlin; a surviving friend went on a crusade until he could wrangle, coax, and shame Congress into enacting this act, which they named in the dead man's honor. Turns out that not being allowed to travel to the U.S. makes it very difficult for Russian thugs to make money here. And PEWtin hates that. Monday's n00z about "diaper Donnie" tRump junior meeting with the lady lawyer about "adoptions" (a tRumpy euphemism for the Magnitsky Act) was aimed at (1) seeing how open the tRumps were to collusion and (2) sounding them out about repealing the Magnitsky Act. Then, today, there was an article saying that don junior pursued the Russian lawyer for Hillary's e-mails, rather than vice versa--according to her, he was lusting to get them. Cheez, friends...every thread you pull on tRump-Russia just keeps on going and going and going and connecting to a basketti tangle of new threads to pull that keep on going and going and going and connecting to another basketti tangle of new threads to pull that keep on going and going and going...!

Lawrence Tribe calls it a high crime rather than treason, but that's still a Big Fat Hairy Deal. There's also confirmation that orange twAtler was also in tRump Tower the same day as the meeting. This puts the lie to their all pretending that orange twAtler didn't know about the meeting--he surely directed his second-favorite son (Kushie being first) to go.

Boycott media!
Don't bother with these media outlets any more unless you want trump propaganda--these media outlets have whored themselves out to trump for access for the low, low price of "fancy" cocktails and a "fancy" dinner, consisting of Donald's shriveled orange acorn dick, at chump's "fancy" (aka FAKE PLASTIC, just like everything else about trump and his FAKE PLASTIC family) "resort" in Florida. What an upstanding, responsible response to trump's denying press conferences since 27 July 2016...retch. So much for comforting the afflicted, afflicting the comfortable, and speaking truth to power to keep that power reined in and in check...!
- Axios
- Bloomberg
- Breitbart because duh--according to AlterNet, Howard Dean Lends Voice to Consumer Activist Group Hitting Breitbart in the Wallet—And It's Working
- CNN
- FOX because of course
- MSNBC (includes Joe Scarborough, but Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes may still be OK as long as their corporate overlords allow it)
- NBC (they also have the reality TV show conflict of interest--and they just hired a couple of FUX Noise escapees, so beware a hard swing to the far, far right)
- POLITICO--their top editor(s) went and paid to party with trump, so now more and more trump propaganda has been showing up there, to my infinite disgust
Don't forget to contact these media outlets and their ADVERTISERS and TELL them all why you're boycotting them! So what if we spend a little less money overall? The money we save now may give us enough breathing room to jump ship before trump crashes the economy.
Boycott vendors that support trump, sell trump shit, and otherwise pander to hate!
Boycott Victoria's Secret--they kick out shoppers who are guilty of shopping while Black!
Here's a twofer: let's save our money for when dump tanks the economy and grab the trumpussy grabber-in-thief where it hurts most--by his wallet!
Want to boycott trump? There's an app for that!
