Assessing Trump Idiocracy
*Assessing the Trump Idiocracy*: a summary of the blows he has struck
at the United States of America.
Even broader and deeper than the blows cited in that list is the blow
struck at the idea of objective truth. His supporters simply believe what he
tells them to believe, with the inexplicable exception of Epstein.

(satire) Low-Income Seniors wallow in mud to stay cool
(satire) *HHS Advises Low-Income Seniors To Wallow In Mud To Stay Cool.*
It's incredible, the sort of things people consider cool.
As for myself, I've never tried to be cool.

Saboteur in chief plans to cancel limits on greenhouse gas emissions
The saboteur in chief plans to cancel the US government's authority
to limit greenhouse gas emissions.
This could be the biggest act of global sabotage in all history —
past and future.
You could move to a place nowhere near forests, rivers or seas,
but the failure of agriculture and fishing will still get you.

Filling in story of Fabian Schmidt
Filling in the story of Fabian Schmidt. For instance, getting out of
immigration prison, and being gouged on food and phone calls for 2
months, cost him $65,000, while of course he was unable to work.
Every element of the immigration prison seems to be as inhumane as the
government can make it. In effect, it is punishment before trial.
The article corrects a few details about his
The policy of jailing people for any minor offense from many years ago
is a form of "zero tolerance". Repressive states like to adopt zero
tolerance when it provides an excuse to punish harmless, powerless
people.
Where zero-tolerance is called for is with continuing patterns of
crime, such as theft of wages by employers, or (for thugs) unjustified
violence against the public. Filing charges against someone for making
a recording should be punished without fail. Not having per body camera
recording at such times, likewise (though systems could activate them
automatically at such times).

Border thugs jailed Fabian Schmidt
US border thugs jailed Fabian Schmidt, US permanent resident, as he
returned from a visit to Germany, because of an old charge of
possession of marijuana which California had wiped out when it
legalized marijuana.
Eventually he was released from jail, but the thugs did not give him
his green card back, or his passport (German, I suppose). So I expect
he is still threatened with deportation. Maybe the thugs will arrest
him some day when they have arrested only 2,999 people and need to
fill the quota.

Undocumented immigrant workers and US citizen arrested
Deportation thugs decided to arrest two undocumented immigrant
workers, along with US citizen Kenny Laynez Ambrosio who traveling
with them.
The thugs responded to imaginary "resistance" (solely in their own
minds) by preemptively attacking each one, including taser attacks,
mostly starting before they had a chance to get out of the car.
Laynez made a video recording of the thugs' attack. So they charged
him with bogus crimes (making a recording) so they could offer to drop
the charges if he deleted the recording. But he had the courage to
refuse.
Thugs who act like that ought to be fired in the name of public
safety, and blacklisted for all police work until they demonstrate
that they have the requisite self control to act like police officers.
