Hollywood movie-grade corruption. It's fine...

The acceptable graft and malfeasance in government is simply out of control.

Yes, we all know that Dear Leader Porn Star Humper has landed 91 indictments for a laundry list of criminal activity. Despite what ProudBabyTV or a Nazi ball-licking podcaster says, again, these are solid indictments nearly across the board. That does not mean an automatic conviction (and yes, everyone is innocent until proven guilty — except if you are black and on death row it would seem) Yes, we all know that Dear Leader’s lawyers and campaign staff have also been investigated, disbarred, and criminally charged. Yes, we all know Dear Leader’s campaign donors and his chief advisor, white Nationalist gang leader Ogre Bannon were dirtyAF. Remember, the crimes were dirty, and then came the dirtier Presidential pardons from the gang leader and chief conspirator-in-charge, Dear Leader. Remember, accepting a pardon is, in fact, an admission of guilt. So there are some guiltyAF assholes floating around Dear Leader’s National gang camp.

But that is simply the tip of the iceberg…

It is happening at all levels of government and the stories keep getting worse. Sure, it is bipartisan a bit with serial offender Bob Mendenez, who is allegedly a thieving, lying bastard taking bribes once again. But the lion’s share of the corruption is clearly and squarely landing on the GOP’s rebranding for Dear Leader Porn Star Humper’s white Christian Nationalist side of the aisle.

George Santos, who should never have been seated in the House if the House had any ethics or morals or actual governance, has been re-indicted by the DOJ adding a list of crimes to his allegedly [HAH!] storied international crime spree. Santos committed all sorts of crimes, including credit card fraud and grand larceny in a variety of methods. He stole from donors, made up fake loans, committed wire fraud, falsified election/campaign records, performed aggravated identity theft, and on and on and on.

Santos, that criminal son of bitch, is still a member of Congress as of tonight. Again, he should have never been seated in the first fucking place. At least Senator Mitt Romney called Santos’ criminally dumb ass out to his face. [Note: Romney was the only Republican to vote to impeach Dear Leader.]

But Mitt is the only person to even attempt to hold either criminal menace accountable in this continuous sad state of affairs. This is a stark contrast to the Barry Goldwater-led Congressional delegation during the Watergate disaster. Goldwater and the other Republicans went to the White House to confront Richard Nixon. Nixon had lost nearly all his support in Congress, but Nixon was still in denial. It was when Goldwater leaned into the conversation in the White House residence to explain that Nixon did not have even his support any longer. Nixon resigned soon thereafter. Republicans knew Nixon was a crook and he had to go.

Now explain today’s situation…

It is not just the federal politicians. Look at the nightmarish corruption in Texas. The Attorney General of Texas Ken Paxton has been under indictment for years and then was tried for impeachment. Of course, Lt Gov Dan “ScumBag” Patrick and Gov Greg “white Nationalist” Abbott threw shade at the impeachment charges and the upper house failed to address the corruption via a conviction. Then, in the most clownish of ways, Scumbag Patrick read the Nationalist partisan riot act to the entire Texas statehouse, blaming the members of the statehouse for the impeachment, then personally (and laughably) absolving Paxton of any wrongdoing even though Paxton is still under criminal indictment.

The insane story from Coffee City, Texas where the Chief of Police hired 50 cops for a town with only 250~ people. Yeah, one cop for every five people. That’s fucking absurd. Being an old retired cop, I balked the second I heard that story. At the muni I worked, on a holiday or event weekend with a big crowd in town (maybe 120,000 total residents and visitors), we would have maybe 13-15 cops on duty (including traffic motor units, detectives in plain cars, plus beat cops). That’s one cop for every 8,000 people in town. Something was horribly and absolutely wrong with this report out of Coffee City. How the hell could such a small town have so many cops?!? Corruption is the answer to that question. Allegedly… It was part traffic ticket (and I assume asset seizure bullshit) revenue generation to their own pockets (including overtime, which seems to be the big scheme today in law enforcement; a local officer in my town was charged with a similar fake overtime scheme) plus a massive side gig security job scheme run by the Chief himself. The Chief got caught on video working as a security guard in an apartment in Houston (two hundred miles away from Coffee City) instead, you know, being in Coffee City as the Chief. This scam went on for years and only recently, after the city council was embarrassed by the local media who reported the Chief’s swindle, addressed the corruption by firing the Chief and disbanding the police department.

To show how this is currently a majority right-wing corruption problem, here is a fine example of how the far-right loonies make their own realities by committing a list of crimes and then declaring themselves “heroes.” The bullshit and totally faked docudrama, produced by a far-right group simply as propaganda (that was swallowed whole by the rubes) Sounds of Freedom, was praised by the right wing under their groomer theory. Tim Ballard, the right-wing crank who went off the reservation to concoct his own reality and bolster “his brand” (think Nationalist-bent influencer) amongst the Nationalist right, has been sued by five women for allegedly a whole list of very rapey conduct. His story is bullshit as far as I can see. The fabrications are so apparent to me (probably due to the years undercover in CID and the years of interviews and interrogation in the military and paramilitary). There is so much to unpack. First, he was running unsanctioned and essentially entirely illegal paramilitary operations in a foreign country. Ballard’s descriptions of events during talks and interviews are frankly bullshit. The framing of the rescues was simply groomer/Comet Pizza messaging to the fanatic losers of the Nationalist Right. He only rescued the good sex slaves who were huddled on their knees reading from their King James Bible and praying to the lil’ baby Jesus. WTF, so the ones just being raped without a Bible in hand were left there to be sex slaves?!? WHAT?!? It is goofy as it is evil.

When I was stationed in West Germany working undercover for the Army, if I decided, on my own, that the area of operations was now, randomly, Luxembourg and started an operation without orders, Status of Forces agreements, host country support, etc., etc., I would have been committing a list of very serious crimes. Crimes that could have come from the UCMJ (American military law) or the host country. Ballard decided for himself that there were too many groomers in America, so he left the country to start dramatizing and fabricating his own herodom in the Caribbean. WTAFO. This is so bad.

The description of the tort claim in WaPo (above linked) seems to me that Ballard got his pickup artist moves from a character in an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. He allegedly duped women into sexually comprised situations by pulling the same pickup artist schtick Bill Paxton used on Jamie Lee Curtis in True Lies. If you remember the movie (which is a really fun flick!), Bill Paxton pretends to be a secret agent (yes I know, Ballard was actually DHS for a while) and picks up Jamie Lee and drives her to his absolutely shitty mobile home in the woods. Once in the secluded mobile home out in nowhere land, Paxton’s character puts the moves on Jamie Lee’s character. The fake spy says he needs to travel to a foreign country with a companion to keep his cover. So the fake spy says they need to look like they are intimate while traveling together. I won’t spoil it if you have not seen the movie (I suggest you do if you like action flicks), but hilarity ensues… Read the article and then watch True Lies, you will definitely see what I mean.

I worked with female undercover investigators and special agents in two countries with multiple agencies. I don’t what the fuck Ballard thinks he was doing or what he is talking about but I can confidently say that I never once put a woman in that position. Not even close. WTAFO^10. This shit (including his bullshity Instagram) is suspiciousAF.

It ain’t just Texas, the FBI just arrested a slew of police officers from multiple cities on a wide range of criminal charges here in California. These corrupt cops (fucking gang member assholes) could not stop committing crimes in so many ways. Fake college degrees to illegally defraud the munis of extra income, dealt illegal drugs (including steroids, roid rage on top of corruption, FFS), using K9s to attack and torture minorities (then laughing about it in text messages and emails, WTF), many civil rights violations, and destroying evidence in a federal investigation. That is a sad state of affairs, especially considering that even the non-white officers displayed clear far-right, xenophobic, racist, and white Nationalist motivations.

Now how does the Nationalist Right respond to the crime, graft, and corruption tsunami? Groomers (remember, Santos was reportedly a drag queen in Brazil*), trans people (*ditto) in bathrooms, immigrants (now, yes, even the legal ones), “woke” culture (seriously, whiny far leftists without a clue are not a national security threat), and Hunter Biden’s laptop. GTFOH.

When does the government decide enough is enough with the bullshit, lies, and in-your-face corruption? See Clarence Thomas/SCOTUS. Because right now, it would seem that the government is the worst serial criminal in the country. The problem is so bad, that I really did not think you could write a Hollywood script to cover the vastness of criminal activities.

Yes, the crime gangs on the government payroll are literally out of control.
