Dear Mr President

Dear Mr President,

I understand the enormity of what you inherited.  I have been very patient as you work through COVID, the economy and infrastructure.  But let's look at evolution...in Evolution, it doesnt matter if you are the strongest, fastest or even smartest, if you dont pass on your genes, you dont become part of 'natural selection.'  The natural selection of the democratic party is voting.  If you don't protect the integrity of the vote, there will BE no more fair elections.  You would NOT HAVE WON without Georgia and Arizona.

Yet when I see you patiently working with Sinema and Manchin and the GQP, I think you arent understanding the scope of what you are dealing with.  Without fair and secure elections; your infrastructure will be torn apart in 2024.  Without fair and secure elections, Obama Care and space will be torn apart.  Without fair and secure elections, EVERY DAY will be 1/6/2021.

I want to believe you have a secret plan, but when I see Garland dismiss suits against Trump I am forced to think you really don't.

Please wake up Mr President.  Or you may be the Last President of the Republic and history will not be kind to you.

A Modest Proposal: Declaration of Independence of the United Cities of America

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one segment of a society to dissolve the ties that bind them; it is advantageous to recount the reasons for doing so and to measure the threshold wherein such is justified such that posterity can hold their head high on the demands that such seemingly radical actions create about the ramifications to a society once so declared.   It is not enough that there be evil intent or evil action in one's enemy but such contemptible behavior that one is forced to declare war when one has war declared upon them in turn.

Whereas the 2016 Trump Tax Cuts blatantly robbed from from Blue States to Give to Red States;

Whereas the entirety of the Republican Party sans one Senator refused to impeach a President clearly and evidently guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors;

Whereas a corrupt and conservative court did ignore the well being of the Republic to force a partisan election to maintain a conservative advantage in the State of Wisconsin held an election in the midst of a virus outbreak not since in a hundred years;

Whereas the same virus outbreak saw the same corrupt president fraudulently share sham medicinal cures on a terrified public wherein he financially profited

Whereas that self same president routinely holds rallies in rural areas demonizing the inhabitants of our cities with fascists rhetoric and hate speech;

Whereas the brave soldiers and sailors of our republic are mocked and led with inept acting cabinet aficionados that bypass the United States Senate;

Whereas the coequal subpoenas of congress are ignored by self said corrupt executive;

Whereas the corrupt leadership of the Senate is more interested in appointing as many self serving corrupt judges that ignore the will of the Majority for corruption and fraudulent interests;

Whereas the tyrannical executive corrupts the apparatus of Justice for his own ends and means in a manner hitherto never seen before in our nation's history

Whereas the dishonorable opponents our glorious cities routinely speak of a Republic in which they have more vote than that of the enlightened urbanity;

Whereas the fundamentals of the constitution itself are blatantly ignored in the ignoring of bribery, self interest and gifts in the Emolument clause and the instruments of government itself are shackled to be able to enforce it;

Wherein our protectorates are ignored and our treaties are violated;

Wherein our international reputation is ruined and our sacred Head of State is reduced to a perpetual  joke that no successor will ever truly be able to redeem;

Wherein the very conventions of war and humanity itself are violated in convention of treaty and federal, state and local law with the unlawful and merciless imprisonment of children;

Wherein the press, being necessary for the monitoring of government to maintain a free state has been systematically threatened and oppressed with the counter factual apparatus has been organized and maintained in direct contravention to the interests of the people;

Whereas credible evidence exists that the Republican executive, legislative and judiciary have as a whole engaged in treasonous intercourse with enemies foreign; Russia, China, Turkey, Brazil and Hungary; and domestic; Facebook, Blackwater, Twitter and more; have blatantly and without regard objectified and vilified persons of color, women, LGBT and anyone of a political mindset not their own in the most systemic personification of evil incarnate since the third Reich;

We, the United Cities of America do declare independence and answer these acts of war with the fact that we shall make war in kind.  We shall not engage in unlawful military transaction but acknowledge what already is, that this nation is in a state of open warfare by enemies foreign and domestic and do pledge sovereign action from which henceforth there shall be no turning back.  Namely, we the foresigned do swear:

Those who from this day forth aid or abet treasonous powers such as the Republican Party, Fox News, The Koch Regime, Project Veritas, Facebook, Twitter or any other element in the Axis of Fascism such as Hungary, Poland, the United Kingdom, the Russian Federation, Brazil, the Philippines, The People's Republic of China or Turkey shall be dealt with as enemies of the Republic.  That upon ascension by a United Cities Candidate to the Presidency to the Republic that an Independent Proprietorial Panel shall be establish to prosecute violations to the fullest and vicious extent of the law.

That the Declaration of Human Rights shall be inviolate in EVERY American City and that no federal power shall be tolerated to rescind one iota of human dignity thus forth;

That the truth shall be sacrosanct and that those who spread lies or 'alternative facts' in wholesale deception shall be prosecuted for fraud to the fullest extent of the law within our borders.

That Every Single American City shall be granted Statehood coequal to rural states that seek to shackle the best of American Culture and Economic

That Every Federal Department (such as the Department of Homeland Security and BNS) that has deliberately and willfully enabled evil in the Republican Regime will be dissolved and replaced in its entirity with political ascendancy by the United Cities.

That any political party that desires the vote of the United Cities will have a separate primary than rural areas and that their interests will come first.  Small rural states will NEVER be allowed to determine the presidential candidate for a party supported by the United  Cities ever again.

That Mayors that support the Republican Regime will not be tolerated and that cities that elect them will be boycotted in their entirity.

That Governors of States that try to break the power of the Union of Cities will be boycotted from all business by city governments.

That news organizations that represent or warp the truth (Facebook, Fox News, Project Veritas) will not receive press passes or endorsement or tolerance in any american city.  That their right to free speech and the free press is accepted must be so; but they will not be endorsed or encouraged or treated as equals to the legitimate or even to burgeoning and independent press

That we support a universal basic income.

That we support universal healthcare provided by the government and only augmented by private industry as determined helpful by the people at large.

That we will DEMAND independent enforcement and monitoring of critical federal agencies such as justice and the military such that while the Presidency may direct them he may not coopt them.

That the congress shall have a separate court for immediate redress of abuse by the executive with a direct appeal to the supreme court.

That the supreme court be purged of rapists.

That the Supreme Court be expanded in number until it represents the interests of the people of the United States

That statehood shall also be granted to Puerto Rico and the District of Colombia.

That all historical grievances of Cities against the States that have shackled them shall be investigated with prejudice by the Presidency and enforced in the interest of cities.

That the Senate shall be replaced with a different method of election that favors Urban Areas since Red States felt that they were entitled to more votes than Urban areas.

That emotional and mental fitness shall be required for anyone who; owns property that is rented by others; teaches, owns a firearm, runs for elected office, works as a state, local or federal law enforcement official or owns a company with more than a hundred employees so that no sociopath or psychopath shall ever unwielding power on our citizens ever again or may darken our nation by achieving political office.

That no law shall be passed that cannot be enforced.

That unionization is not only encouraged but shall in no way be interfered with by any government or company and is understood to be a human right.

That the senate shall confirm any appointment by the president within 30 days; that no individual senator can stop it and that no ACTING appointee to head a federal agency will be political and may only come from the civil service.

That Climate change shall be the National Prime Directive and that anyone who works to stop its reversal shall be treated as an Enemy of the State and the Enemy of the Species.

That We, the United Cities of America declare ourselves Morally and Culturally superior to Red States and will no longer tolerate their interference in our affairs.

Where has your unlimited freedom of speech gotten you, and us?

Dear Centrist
Dear Moderate
Dear Mister Incremental Change

Where has your dithering gotten us now?

You believe in the 1787 US constitution.

You say dont blame non voters for our mess.

You say exposing the truth of wrong doing will change hearts and minds.

You say unlimited freedom of speech is worth the risk because the alternative is a slippery slope of death and oppression.

Well here we are.

The republicans know they are lying, and they dont care.

The non voter doesnt care or, worse, simpy does NOT believe their vote can change anything, and, like an anti vaxxer will resist exposure to the truth and do nothing.


Treason, fraud, murder, espionage and extortion are all and have been blatantly exposed and an entire multi BILLION dollar industry exists to perpetuate a lie for the minority: a minority large enough to lock the gears of the antiquated 1789 system.

Do you REALLY think getting money out of politics will fix this?

Get a clue. They will lie more.

Freedom to lie, as allowed by radical interpretation of the 1789 constitution is WHY we are in this mess.

Democracy is a battle of narratives and one of those narratives is a BLATANT DANGEROUS and fascist lie.

Your incremental change cannot fix this.

If there are no more free elections, there are NO MORE INCREMENTS.

If you morally excuse the non voter, the fascist minority UTTERLY PREVENTS amending the constitution to fix this.

The 1789 constitution places enforcement if the law under the executive.  It actually says nothing about prosecution but until we legislate to fix the courts as well as the department of justice it is just inadequate.

Unlimited freedom to have your spiritual experience by yourself or to criticize the government as you see fit are needed. Unlimited freedom of the press TO TELL THR TRUTH is needed.

Freedom to lie is toxic to democracy and it is TIME YOU ADMITTED the 1787 constitution can no longer cut it.

Time for a new one.

Sincerely yours,

Harsh Fucking Reality

Bypass Centrists, Coordinated Non Violent Retaliation

Alright I am saving some of this for the podcast, but there is so much desire for change and so much to do here are my primary thoughts right now.

Bullies need to understand the concept of retaliation; there must be consequences for their violation of norms of our society and if they control the presidency there will be no prosecution of these acts.  We can, however, do things like ensure Democratic candidates for 2020 agree to take on AG who will prosecute voting irregularities of 2018.

Centrists and mealy mouthed Civility democrats will say "no we need to be nice to the fascists" but that's bullshit.

YOU MUST NOT ALLOW THESE PEOPLE TO CONTROL THE CONVERSATION.  We are all ANTIFA now, even those of us who don't want to go out into the streets or getting added to a DHS/FBI database of 'violent agitators.'

Anti-Abortion terrorists have been using terror against abortion clinics for a long time by printing databases with the home names and addresses of abortion doctors and clinic workers.

Don't worry, pearl clutching liberal friends, I'm not advocating violence, both because it is illegal and dumb, but because I know you literally aren't capable of it until the conservative paramilitaries start killing people in the streets.

But I digress, my point about the anti abortion people is NOT to say 'be violent' it is to say that COORDINATED non violent retaliation IS something we can work together on and if the website hosting this data is not based in the US we can coordinate our actions.

For example; they take out blue state polling stations, give us voting machines that don't work? Well, what happens in 2020 in Red States if a bunch of blue staters who had early voted drove the minimum speed limit on the high way causing a traffic jam in the middle of bumble fuck Wyoming? Sure, early voters would be fine but they still go to the polls like anyone else. Pick the right state where the Senate is in the balance this is a perfectly legal perfectly non violent solution.

We need to do a TON of things like this and do so in a decentralized way so the Trumpistas can't target us.

Proof the Birth Certificates of the NRA Members and ICE are FORGED

Alright, this will seem strange but I'm using this one weird trick, walk with me.

First, background.  ICE has recently begun to pretend that some legitimate birth certificates of immigrant citizens are forged.

But this isn't political persecution in a state that the Republicans might lose, oh no!  It is Trump's legit religious belief that Birth Certificates are something you must spiritually believe in.  Trump didn't believe in Obama's birth certificate even when he showed the long form Birth Certificate on national television to humilate him right before Osama Bin Ladin was killed.

Oh wait, you didn't forget that did you?

I know Trump didn't.

So since Spiritual belief is what matters to Trump on Birth Certificates, and all Trumpanzees Think Like Trump they believe what he believes...

Then the Religious Freedom Act prevents us from applying science to the birth certificates of NRA Members and ICE.

What does THAT mean?

It means that when the court determines that we can't tell if their birth certificates are forgeries placed there due to Time Travel from Russia in the year 2099 to go back in time and infiltrate America to destroy it from within; we can legitimately question their citizenship.

And when their lawyers say that there is no scientific evidence of time travel....we point to the Religious Freedom act, and how they have already involved their spiritual beliefs in science rather than actual fact due to their denial of climate change.

Let me repeat that:

Members of the NRA and ICE are NOT citizens.  Their birth certificates are forgeries.

IF you defend them, we might need to check the validity of your birth certificate too.

The Slippery Slope is now a cliff.  It's a question of whether or not you're getting pushed off it.

Excision Is The Right Decision

Let us be clear.

NOWHERE in the constitution does it forbid the congress from ceding territory of the United States. A corrupt, and dishonest court, such as the one we have now, could warp an interpretation of Amendment 9 to state that since it isn't mentioned, a state has the right to Secede.

Technically, this is actually correct.  The south was well within its right to leave.  Then we fought this thing called the Civil War; but make no mistake, this was justified because of the Confederacy's attack on Ft. Sumpter.

But it is not without precident for a Republic to simply EXPEL a member state when it is deemed a threat to the union.  What the congress cannot do is split a state.  What we need to do is split the country geographically between the third of trump supporters and the two thirds of us who aren't Fascists.  Yes, I get that some of this is a fluid thing, but I think a parting of ways is WAY better than a civil war.  Before we even TRY for the Article 5 convention we need; let's just PART WAYS with the conservatives before we even try to reconcile with the Progressives and the moderates.

The simple act of congress; the National Excision act would only require a majority of both the House and the Senate and the signature of the president.  It could allow a state to divide itself up, by state wide referrendum (yes, a corrupt court could say it has to be a legislature, but the 14th amendment can override that) and basically allowthe majority of a state in cities to remain in the United States while effectively EXPELLING rural territory that does not reflect the values of the American Republic due to TREASON and collusion with a foreign power.

You COULD try bribing corrupt Red State legisulators to accept Federal division of the state by offering to take the debt of those states.  But really, state wide referrendums TO ME meet the criteria preventing the Federal Government from dividing a state.

The Patriotic Case for an Article 5 convention to Save America

"We have nothing to fear, but Fear itself," - FDR

Article 5, in the constitution, was written by wise men who wrote a document that was written to fix a broken, totally non functional government that the rest of the world laughed at because it was a pile of shit.  That government was called "The Articles of Confederation" and it could not do anything.  With the POSSIBLE exception of Switzerland prior to 1850, no confederation in the history of mankind has done jack or shit; not the American South, not the Athenian League, not the EU; confederations DO. NOT. WORK. 

The Founding Fathers knew this.  And they realized that we would likely fuck things up eventually.  Hell, Jefferson felt that we should have a new constitution every 20 years.  And we should but instead Jefferson did his job too well and we have a constitution that won't go away even if it needs to.

In THIS post, I'm not arguing about the constitution itself but the simple understanding that a house divided cannot stand.  We have two realities, and a recent conversation with an inhabitant of that reality made me remember; no one views themselves as a mustache twirling villain.  The nazis, to themselves, were holy warriors fighting for racial purity.  The romans enslaved but brought roads and civilization.  The british brought order and tea and democracy.  America brings McDonalds.

To a Trump supporter; these are not concentration camps for kids but Freedom Cages for the kids of criminals.  To a Trump supporter, they aren't traitors collaborating with Russia but Good Citizens who have a good ally and friend in Uncle Putin (and they aren't even working with him anyway).  To a Trump supporter, Trump may be crass and anti woman, but at least he doesn't murder babies.

They don't view themselves as monsters.  They view themselves as good guys and us as badguys who hate America, hate them, hate kids, hate babies, hate dogs, hate ourselves, hate the truth, hate kittens. WE, the inhabitants of reality, are the real villains and are cartoon characters in their minds; frightened children who need the Gubbamint to solve our problems and are; effectively, zombies in the servants of Soros and the Clintons.  Why do you think these people obsesses about the zombie apocalypse?   That isn't real zombies they are preparing for but the day when their Leader says it is OK to go out and mow down the evil; rather, "the evil is mowing us down, defend yourselves with extreme prejudice and their kids too just in case."  Seriously, these people look at the Republic of Gillean and nod, "We have to do it for God."

You can't reason with that.  You can't appease it.  You can't even legislate your way around it.  It is never, EVER, going to get better and you can't educate around it because their reality filters will listen to what you say and put you in the "Not Human" box and move on.

So, its either civil war or....

An article 5 convention.

We can agree to split ways; let them have their little reality where they put kids in cages and make women use wire coat hangers in alleys and keep black men from marrying white women and gay marriage is illegal.  We can do that, and keep ourselves and our cities safe.

You can argue that its horrible to let them do these things but are you prepared to sling a rifle on your back and walk through radioactive mud and live off MRE's for 10 years to make it happen? I bet you are not. I'm sorry but you just aren't.

So if we aren't REALLY wanting to fight the 2nd Civil War; and we don't want the Republic of Gillead, we have to give these people their pound of flesh.  We have to let them raise their taxes for the rich and let corporations rule them.  We have to let them let their sick racist fantasies become real and separate the country between Red and Blue america and the only real way to do it (without war) is an Article 5 convention.

You can put your fingers in your ears and keep saying "lalalalalalalala" or you can try and find a way besides war.  A real soldier avoids war at all costs.  Anyone with a shred of wisdom listens to the horrors of others; while I may be no soldier, I listen to them.  War is horrible; war is awful and war is what we are going to get if we don't split the country.

But do what you want.
