This Carbon Based Life

By David Glenn Cox

It seems obvious to me at least, where the motivation of the so-called sedious six came from. You don’t have to follow any unlawful orders. And a Navy flier just did follow an unlawful order and now his life and career are ruined, just like the career of pirate Pete Hegseth. The navy attacked a fishing boat and committed a war crime. How do I know? Because you don’t need eleven men to ferry cocaine. On the direct orders of pirate Pete, the pilot attacked, killing nine of the eleven men on board. But two clung to life and to the wreckage when pirate Pete said those immortal words, “Kill them all!” Signaling the end of his tenure as Defense Secretary and possibly the term of the entire Trump regime.

Like a department store of crime and depravity. How trivial it all now looks in contrast. Krash Patel flying his sugar baby girlfriend around on FBI jets and assigning her a security detail. As if someone would want to hurt her instead of laughing, pointing and pitying her. Playing the cock-eyed old fool for all he’s worth. Kristi Noem directly disobeying a federal court order. Yesterday, that might have been a big deal, but no longer! Shipping people off to brutal concentration camps without due process. Directly disobeying a federal judge. So what?

Or the fake tough guy thug Tom Holman with his American Gestapo and his financial ties to the private prisons. About to double the national debt with wrongful arrest lawsuits of the innocents, roughed up and rounded up by his thugs. Which brings us the commander in sleaze, dementia Don. Which is worse? Murder or raping little girl children? Or perhaps the cover up is worse. With those three words, pirate Pete has run the ship of state up onto the rocks of reality. I guess they’re right. There is nothing worse than a dry drunk.

But lest we forget Steve Witkoff, the Russian asset hired by another Russian asset to force an abject surrender on Ukraine. Leaving everyone, our allies, our friends and ourselves worse off. Take your pick! They are all impeachable offenses. Cocaine Junior recently signed on to the board of a small company making drone motors. Four months later, the company wins a big fat government contract and their stock price doubles overnight. “Thanks Dad!” Are they good drone motors? Do they need to be?

The Titanic has hit the berg and is taking on water. It’s only a question of time now. All of the Republican chickens clucking and plucking and pecking at the ground, worried about their reelection. Who must now either cling to the coattails of a murderer or resign. I remember William Caley and the Mei Lai massacre in Vietnam. But the defense secretary never ordered Caley to kill civilians. Heroes don’t kill civilians and they don’t follow illegal orders.

By the day, the week, or the hour, it just keeps getting worse and worse, spinning out of control. It is absolutely indefensible. If I were pirate Pete’s lawyer; I would advise him to find a country without an extradition treaty. And run there as fast as he can, change his name and stay there! If murder isn’t a high crime, what is? Just firing missiles at ships at sea is a crime. It’s piracy on the high seas! But ordering the murder of survivors is a crime against humanity. Even Fox News will choke on their words trying to defend and explain that one.

The orange apocalypse has been struggling with his self-control of late. “Quiet Piggy!” And “you are a very stupid person.” It takes one to know one, I guess. But pirate Pete has shit in the boss’s Happy Meal this time. The king will be hard pressed to defend murder and piracy on the high seas. But he will try! What choice does he have at this point? If he defends pirate Pete, the problem festers and the whole misadministration becomes infected. If he throws pirate Pete under the bus, the problem explodes!

Gee, what could possibly put the Epstein scandal on the back burner? Murder perhaps? If you were a Republican critter in congress right now, what would you do or say next? Careful now, your career is on the line here! They’re backed into a corner and hit with a wet mop. “I rise today to defend the murder of fishermen! It’s not really piracy on the high seas, if you suspect them of wrongdoing.” Good luck with that strategy!

The misadministration has now been hacked apart with a meat cleaver. Defend the indefensible? Remain silent and hope for the best? Guess what question your opponent is going to ask at the candidates’ debate? Pirate Pete didn’t just kill some innocent fishermen. He’s killed the President, and he’s killed Mike Johnson, and he’s killed the entire Republican Party. When pirate Pete said, “Kill them all” he had no idea just how correct he actually was. He has now killed them all.

In a way, we should be somewhat thankful, because like a serial killer, this misadministration is only getting worse and worse. Maybe they would have opened fire on a crowd of demonstrators in Chicago or Portland. The truth is, we have no idea where all the bodies are buried or what secrets are left to be exposed. The media can be counted on to try and change the subject, but they can’t escape it either. The crime is too blatant and too callous and bloodthirsty. “Kill them all!” Can you ever see yourself in a scenario where you would order someone to “Kill them all!”

The rule of thumb says a draft dodger president should never accuse a war veteran and a four-time astronaut of sedition. Especially when he’s proven to be correct. Trump has done more for the career of Mark Kelly than the space shuttle ever did. Overnight, Mark Kelly is now a presidential front runner for 2028. Because he stood up when others remained silent. Gavin Williams is suing Fox News and Jesse Waters for $787 million dollars for slander. Up until yesterday, that was an important development. But now, it is almost meaningless.

It has all become meaningless. ICE, the Justice department. The Lolita express or the sugar baby flights. Junior’s corruption or the Jeffrey Epstein Memorial ballroom. What’s telling a lie to a federal judge when compared with “Kill them all!”? Drink up Pete! It doesn’t matter now. You’ve screwed the pooch, and now he’s about to come back and bite you.
