This Carbon Based Life

By David Glenn Cox

How much longer can it go on? How can Republicans, let alone cabinet members, let it go on? How can they look at themselves in the mirror each day and let it go on? The commander and creep, orange van winkle, dosed during a cabinet meeting, exhausted from his grueling five-hour workday. But the reason was clear enough. The king of sleaze had been up most of the night, texting and raging insanities on Twuth Social. He texted somewhere in the neighborhood of 160 times. Outside of Washington D.C. that behavior is called insane.

Not the coo-coo for cocoa puffs. Ha, ha insane. But the textbook rubber room, straight jacket, don’t turn your back on him insane. The subject was murder, and yet, Drip Van Winkle could hardly keep his eyes open. Whiskey Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Murder, had been giving us excuse number four? Or was it number five? He did it. He didn’t do it. He didn’t give the order. He was in the other room, being so busy and all. The fog of war and the fog of Donald. (ZZZZZZZZ!) It was all the admiral’s idea. Way to lead from the front, Pete.

Every new excuse only makes the hole dug deeper. As the olden one says, stick with me, Pete. Lying is easy. Just nod your head, Zzzzz! Just say it with a straight face and they will believe anything. But lost and rambling inside in the empty caverns of his own mind, the orange one doesn’t get it yet. The spell is broken. Not one shred of evidence. Not one iota of proof of wrongdoing. No one is gathering up any evidence from the scene to show the American people. No one is asking why you would need eleven people in a small boat to deliver cocaine? Maybe it wasn’t two attacks after all. Maybe it was more like four attacks. Who knows…hmm?

Attacking drug dealers with oil wealth while pardoning convicted drug dealers without any. The Secretary of State Marko Polio is supposed to lead in foreign policy matters. Yet he’s a ghost, he’s the invisible man. Replaced in Ukraine negotiations by a Russian asset and useful idiot. What happened to America first? Aren’t our own idiots good enough? The Russian peace plan was scuttled like an episode of Scooby Doo by meddling Europeans. Does that mean Trump’s Russian oil leases are off now? How could you stay there, knowing the boss has no faith in you? To hold a title with your dick in your hand and nothing else. To be the third stooge.

The insanity reached a point in Germany where they finally tried to assassinate Hitler with their lives hanging in the balance. These schmucks only have to hold a meeting and declare him insane. But they won’t! Being too much in love with their pretend power and petty personal prestige. Whiskey Pete is going to drown them all. Epstein is going to drown them all. The economy is going to drown them all. The big bastard bill will wipe out the Republican party like Jonas Salk wiped out polio.

The world, Europe, Asia, Latin America is rapidly losing faith in the United Snakes. The Chinese promised to buy 12 million metric tons of soybeans. But they’re waiting for the price to sink down a little further. Until it won’t really help the farmers one bit. Where, oh where, is the invisible man? The one who once called Trump America’s Hitler and then took a job working for him. Shameless, spineless, senseless and invisible.

Not since King George has the madness been so pronounced. Forget a constitutional crisis. We are far beyond that; we have an existential crisis. The corrupt, crippled king declares war on Somalis in Minnesota because he has a grievance against the state’s governor. The list of petty grievances and prosecutions grows by the day and what does the shadow cabinet do? “Oh, I didn’t do that! It wasn’t me! I’m not responsible for that!” But the fact is that they are all responsible. To remain silent in the face of brutality and barbarity is acceptance for those crimes. What the king of corruption is proposing is the ethnic cleansing of innocent Americans, all to feed his manic need for revenge, to feed his madness and his insanity.

The crippled king proposes to take away SNAP benefits for millions of poor, innocent Americans. To fight fraud, but only in Democratic blue states. It is a cruelty and barbarity which will require Nuremberg style trials and Nuremberg style punishments. Maybe meet Mussolini down at the gas station. The king might be out of his gourd, but the order followers and apparatchiks should take heed and take a good long look in the mirror. Already they’re prepared to throw an admiral under the bus to protect themselves. The Republicans held on to a seat in Tennessee by a cat’s whisker. They won’t be so lucky elsewhere.

An American president has declared war on the American people. On poor people, brown people and black people. But racism is too simple of an explanation. The king has declared war on all Americans. He is criminally insane, and that is no longer even a question open for debate. But a sad fact. But his cabinet of corrupt cronies, toadies, thieves and human blanks are not insane. They are fully criminally culpable. They all took an oath to defend the constitution and yet, they follow their criminal king instead. They should look forward to a future with bars interrupting the view of their horizons.

How far will Lachesis play out the thread which wraps eventually around their own necks? Waiting patiently for Atropos to make the final cut. What will it take before the criminal cowards to finally stand up? Forget about Hegseth. He’s a psychopath and a cold-blooded murderer. Noem is the Hermon Goering party girl. Pretending to be important, but only for the photo ops. Krash Patel is the wanna be playboy. Work? What’s that? Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is the cigar store wooden Indian who knows all and does nothing. Marko Polio is the invisible man. The Secretary of nothing. It is a clown car. It’s a flea circus!

How can they ride in the car unconcerned about their eventual destination? Do they not fear where the king is taking them? Do they not see the end of the paved road up ahead? Do they not fear the revenge of the little people? Do they not suspect they will be cast out and cast aside? As all are eventually cast out and cast aside. Left along the roadside with their futures left behind them.

“Therefore, the more technological the world becomes, the more essential will be the demand for individual freedom and the self-awareness of the individual human being as a counterpoise to technology…. Consequently this trial must contribute to laying down the ground rules for life in human society. What does my own fate signify, after all that has happened and in comparison, with so important a goal?” ― Albert Speer
