914: Large Graft Warming

DENIAL NATIONAL PARK (August 3) —

The only reason they’re having this hurricane

is to make me look bad.

There’ll be lotsa wind, there’ll be lotsa rain.

Waste of effort. Pathetic. Totally SAD.

My people — wonderful folks — know I am not to blame

for anything bad that ever happens. And they know I am sane.

America’s number one stable genius. The smartest guy in the room.

Who has no need for facts and figures. Or Fauci and Birx presumed doom and gloom.

Who will never panic over some fake pandemic.

(Which is fading, so laugh it off.)

Who will never acknowledge racism’s systemic

and may even ask O. J. to come play some golf.

Who is not afraid of fake climate “science”.

(Global warming’s a Chinese-made myth.)

Who eschews clean air and water compliance.

Who always gets what he wants forthwith.

EXPLAIN AWAY (June 21) —

There is nothing for breakfast that I find finer

than pancakes made by MY Aunt Jemima.

Abraham Lincoln. Like me, a Republican.

Not many people know that.

What with his seizing citizens’ property,

I figured him for a Democrat.

Big deal, ABRAHAM! You “freed” a few “slaves”.

’Sme made Juney-teenth famous.

’Slike like we whites got too no “Negros”

by listening to Andy and Amos.

My dad, Fred Trump, “liked” die Amerikadeutscher Volksbund

because he was fond of das Vaterland.

There is, however, NO PROOF WHATSOEVER

that daddy or I joined the Ku Klucking Klan.

China's too blame for Kung Influenza

and Hussein Obama was born in Kenya.
“Rule of Law”? For losers and fools.
A strongman rules using whatever tools.

I cudda slud down that ramp at the Point,

but it wudda been SAD if I fell

on account of my shiny slippery soul

and, well, since I’m goin' t' hell . . .

hell, truth to tell, 'swhere I belong

and when I take the country along

it'll be swell. In fact, on the level . . .

made a GREAT deal with my grandpa, the devil.

№ 875: QED

UTOPIA (June 9) —

Remember how Rome and Carthage

settled inherent differences?

How the Amalekites and ancient Israelites

came to appreciate each other’s experiences?

How Athens and Sparta found it far smarter

to set aside all their quarrels?

How different religions, countries, ethnicities

never spill blood over ideas or morals?

Though these examples are from one small region,

all the world’s people are equally keen

to come to together in peace and in reason 

because to do otherwise would be obscene.

History's a record of human wisdom.

There is no such thing as racism.

№ 873.1: EXTRA! “Racism” — THE END

GREAT COME AND GET IT DAY (June 8) —

Hating “the other” is natural.

It is what living things do:

ignore similarities, inflate disparities,

eliminate all things that aren't you.

Let's do away with left-handers.

Or with the blue-eyed and blond.

Or the short, or the tall, or those sayin' “y'all”.

Ou, peut-être, sacrebleu!, tout le monde.

“Racism” will only be over

when in “THE END” it's replaced

by some other form of deliberate stupidity

exactly the same, only worse:

EXACTLY the same with a prettier name,

hiding behind a bright smiley face.👶

THE IMPERIAL PALACE (January 7)

(with apologies to James Rado, Gerome Ragni and Galt MacDermot) 

When a goon bestrode the White House
and he banned electric cars
to ap-pease the car-bon lobby
and cli-mate sci-ence was out-lawed
That was the dawning of the Age of Trumpocrassy
the Age of Trumpocrassy
Trumpocrassy
Trumpocrassy

Bible study notwithstanding,
double-dealing was astounding
golden, grafting politicians
on their phony Christian missions
who with-out hesitation
created white men-only nation

№ 664: Hopeless?

EVERYWHERE (August 19)

Can we — PLEASE! — stop speaking of “race”?
Really, there is NO. SUCH. THING!

Skin color, ethnicity, language, religion.
Nationality! Culture! Those distinctions
that do have some meaning.
Albeit slight, despite what you're feeling.

But were we to recognize “race” has no place,
that still would not heal our schisms.

Plus we would need to invent a new word
to replace what today's called “racism”.

THE VERY WHITE HOUSE (August 5)

Calling me racist. . .a Democrat ploy.
You want the facts, just ask the boy

who gives me the shine he calls soopa fine.
Maybe some day I should slip him a dime?

Okay, “perhaps”, I do not love Hispanics.
In the real estate business I've found
when they move in everyone panics.
Even Jews choose not to want them around.
I got nothing against them, as I am God's witness.
The simple truth is they're bad for business.
They are the problem. I'm not to blame.
They gotta return from whence they came.

How can anyone say I'm antisemitic
when my daughter's a super hot Jew?
So, I suppose, are my grandkids (her children),
whose names I wish I knew.
They call me “Grampy”. They're really great kids.
I'd probably love them if they weren't Yids.

№ 647.1: EXTRA! Rats!

Better to have a few rats than to be one

This is a president who will happily debase himself at the slightest provocation. And given Mr. Cummings’ criticisms of U.S. border policy, the various investigations he has launched as chairman of the House Oversight Committee, his willingness to call Mr. Trump a racist for his recent attacks on the freshmen congresswomen, and the fact that “Fox & Friends” had recently aired a segment critical of the city, slamming Baltimore must have been irresistible in a Pavlovian way. Fox News rang the bell, the president salivated and his thumbs moved across his cell phone into action.

TRUMP SWAMP (July 28)

How Donald does love to attack,

which he learned from the master Roy Cohn,

who he was known to kneel down before,

but, no, that is not where I'm goin'.

I will not stoop to employing the ploy,

of hinting Donald was one of Roy's blond pretty boys.

I prefer taking a higher tack

and simply suggest the Rat Pack is back,

with Donald, the chief, when he ain't grabbin' it

presiding over the rats in his cabinet.

№ 641: Twit Tweets

Trump voters cringe and shrug at tweets while Democrats rage

HELENVILLE, Wis. (AP) — Bill Brasch greeted President Donald Trump’s latest tweet controversy with a shrug.

He doesn’t believe Trump was being racist for telling four congresswomen, all women of color, to “go back” to the countries they came from.

THE SWAMP (July 17)

Donald Trump tweeted garbage today.

Nothing which bears repeating.
And since his followers' attention is fleeting,
there's no point refuting, correcting, disputing
his mistakes, outright lies and deception.
I mean, after all, it is not as if
his Twitter wallowers would pay attention,
let alone face a fact that might distract
from the pre-ill-conceived notion that
this sad obese man has some sort of plan
to ensure, at a stroke, that white Christian folk
retain and remain the majority.
It is understood, he would if he could,
but he does not have THAT authority.

Yet.
I would not bet against his trying to do it.

I hear you say, “Congress stands in his way.”
To which he would say, “Screw it!”
and direct Stephen Miller, “Steve, at your leisure,
think up some way to turn me into Cæsar.”

Supreme Court Reaffirms Rule Against Racial Bias in Jury Selection

Justices vote 7-2 to overturn murder conviction of black defendant in Mississippi 

Writing for the 7-2 majority, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said the “extraordinary facts of this case” required the court’s intervention. . .

Mr. Flowers, then 26, had worked at the store, but no physical evidence tied him to the crime. District Attorney Doug Evans, theorizing that Mr. Flowers killed the four victims in revenge after being fired, prosecuted him all six times.

OH HOW COULD YOU BRETT, MS (June 21)

Why should a DA

have to go wilty

because a black man

might not really be “guilty”?

If he's not guilty

explain the fact

that the defendant

appears to be black!

Justice delayed

may be justice denied,

but we know just as well

God is on white DA's side.

Just look at his pictures.

He’s bathed in light.

With Aryan eyes

Of course God is white.

And yet there are idiots who

say God is an A-rab

or God is a Jew.

And though this may

generate flak,

it is damned certain

GOD CAN'T BE BLACK!

God is white.

God is perfection.

The “reveal” in Israel?

GPS misdirection!

One thing 

we are totally sure of,

God’s native land

is northwest Europe.

That’s where He began.

That’s where He planned.

The Garden of Eden

was, in fact, Sweden.

For, though now Socialists,

and, therefore, vermin,

Swedes in the old days

were actually German.

№ 609.1 EXTRA!: Bigotry In The Eye, Ear, Nose, Throat and Craw

Jared Kushner says President Donald Trump is “absolutely not” a bigot or a racist

Kushner struggled to answer questions about allegations of racism facing Trump while being interviewed by Axios

TRUTH NEVER LANSDS, June 4

That Donald's no bigot cannot be news

He has, over time, met bootblacks and Jews.

(He always says, “Black folks think I'm so fine

I don't stand on no line when I wants me a shine!”)

Though he and Dad Fred would not rent to blacks

they hired Jewish accountants to fiddle their taxes.

(Some of whom, so it's been said,

did such a good job that they got paid.

As for divorce. . .Jewish lawyers. Of course.

He respects how these lawyers know where they're goin',

though now he prefers a Cohn to a Cohen.

I mean, after all, is he really to blame

for thinking all Jewish lawyers the same?

His daughter, Ivanka, is Jewish Orthodox,

but he absolves her because she's a fox.

And while we are on the subject of hotties,

Trump's a great pal of Bibi's near Nazis.

№ 603: “Loving” Vs Virginia (Charlottesville Update)

CHARLOTTESVILLE, 1865

It is not “a hate crime” when we oppose

people who hate us like all of THOSE
we have to remind who is the boss,
“bloody their nose” with superior force

as they'd do to us given the chance
in an alternative circumstance.

We have to remind them who wears the pants.

It isn't “hate” that motivates us.

It isn't even dislike.

Anyone who tells you it is

is likely a “BIG CITY”-type.

We know OUR LORD in heaven above

can see our hearts overflowing with love

for our families, love for our kin,
love for all Christians with HIS color skin.

What I am saying is only that I’m

certain THAT love is not a “crime”.

№ 596: How It Is

The Concept of “Race” Is a Lie (Paywall)

In combating this increase in racism, there are two primary aspects to consider. The first is that the very idea of “race” is a lie: as the American Society of Human Genetics, the largest professional organization of scientists in the field, explained in an essay:

“The science of genetics demonstrates that humans cannot be divided into biologically distinct subcategories”; and it “challenges the traditional concept of different races of humans as biologically separate and distinct. This is validated by many decades of research.” In other words, “race itself is a social construct,” with no biological basis.

So, while ethnicity is real, and there are indeed minor differences between ethnic groups, there is no such thing as “race”—only racism

BESTOFALLPOSSIBLE WORLDS, May 15

It's not about “race”.

It's not about nation.

It's not about faith.

Nor social station.

It's not about lingo.

It's not about culture.

This ain't animal husbandry

v. crop agriculture.

Those are mere
flags of convenience —

concepts concocted

explaining our meanness.

Why we prefer, 

given our druthers,

to, if we can,

smother the other.

This human propensity

to draw the inference,

“OUR ways are normal.

YOUR ways are different.”
We don't sweat the small stuff 

which we can't distinguish.

But things looming large,

we strive to extinguish.

№ 592.1: EXTRA! When Bad Was Good In The Movies

Lillian Gish: should a great actor be judged by a racist film?

An Ohio cinema has removed ‘Gish’ from its name due to her role in notorious 1915 film The Birth of a Nation. Cultural myopia – or proof of newly enlightened times?

DW Griffith’s 1915 film epic is still dangerous, perhaps increasingly so. The movie, which prompted protests from the NAACP and cinema riots on its release, praises the Ku Klux Klan and contains deeply offensive representations of African Americans in the years following the civil war. It was held responsible for a surge in KKK membership and has always had a toxic reputation, while being lauded for its technique.

MOVIELAND, May 10

When D. W. Griffith gave us The Birth Of A Nation

it was seen as and, rightly, deemed a sensation.

In black and white, his skillful directorial hand

celebrates hate and the Ku Klux Klan.

(Am I alone in finding that name

silly, illiterate and exceedingly lame?)

Anyway, as I had started to say

this flick was a hit back in its day,

way before anyone would call attention

to what is, at least, its extreme condescension.

(Well, it is actually more propaganda,

pandering slander from a racist grandstander.)

This “classic” agitprop still is deployed

to make down-market whites more paranoid,

assuring they never get to a place

where they can see there are no races.

Therefore a #MAGA conflagration

climaxing in The Death Of A Nation?
We have a leader who is such a jerk, he'll
likely lead us in this full circle.

№ 554: Trump, No Racist He (a pome by Donald J. Trump, Genius)

I have never been a racist.

Just ask anyone.

Go and ask my (current) wife.

My daughters or my sons.

Ask anyone who's worked for me —

except rat-fink Michael Cohen

who was to me as Judas was to. . .

you see where I'm goin'?

If Fred, my father, were still here,

you could ask him. Without fear,

he's stand before you and you'd see

he was not completely Nazi.

I love yellows. I love browns.

(Those who aren't Demo clowns.)

I love Hispanics. I love THE BLAXS.

(Those who aren't FAKE NEWS hacks.

And between me and you

those few without a low IQ,

the favored few with brains to see

how smart it is to worship me.)

I love Americans! 

Okay? Alright? 

If they're born here

and they're white.

When it comes to push and shove,
are there people I don't love?
Well, a few. Indians. Maybe.
Whose casinos run successfully.

№ 537: Down With Lazy Fare

Hating whole classes in all ways surpasses

finding each individual's flaws.

If we only see masses

it's just BECAUSE

we lack the insight to otherwise

figure out why and who we despise.

We could make an effort —
though we have a plateful —
to discover why those
NOT US are hateful.
But we would rather scream then transcend;
hating makes us feel great again.

№ 504: Southern Exposure

I pity Southerners

who time and again

have been betrayed

by cliques of old men

who retain power

by switching labels,

pretending there's truth

in racial fables.

The party may change

but the program remains:

keep white and black

forever estranged;

make them compete

for a small bit of gruel;

insure the same folk

continue to rule.

I give you McConnell,

Graham and others

and wonder if they'd been

smothered by mothers

with foresight to see

what they'd turn out to be,

would they be missed?

Well. . .not by me.

Roseanne Barr is blaming Ambien for her racist tweets and telling her fans, “I'm not a racist, just an idiot who made a bad joke.”

So. . . “idiot” Roseanne, taken aback,

claims she did not know Jarrett was black?

IF this is so, I guess Rosie's no racist

and what she says is just outerspacist.

All is forgiven. Kisses and hugs.

Not her fault at all. It's just her drugs.

No cause for worry unless The Donald

No. 248.1: EXTRA! Trump Says He Is Not A Racist

It is obvious.

Trump is no racist.

He holds not one racist view.

Just as no one in Germany
ever hated a Jew.

Also,

he is not a sexist.

He holds all women dear.

If he held even one woman dearer,

it would be ever so queer.

Immigrants yellow,
immigrants brown,
even immigrants black. . .

It's matter of FACT

they lack the “knack”

to be red, white and blue.

can earn their keep

at his golf courses,

so long as they work really cheap.
