America Aspires to Kristallnacht

     Some journalists pushing the state apologist line have scoffed at referring to the "detention centers" "housing" illegal immigrants in Texas, Florida, and California, as concentration camps imprisoning thousands of Spanish-speaking people of both sexes and many age groups, including babies.
     MSNBC had a story about Vice President Mike Pence visiting a "detention center," meeting with Border Patrol officials, his own gaze projecting from his bland psychopathic face, seeing firsthand an obviously overcrowded holding pen with maybe a hundred men behind a chain link fence, watched by guards.  A few journalists were allowed in with Pence and his two fellow politicians, Senators Lindsey Graham and Mike Lee, both of whom showed nothing in their expressions, even though other visitors have described the stench of unwashed human beings crammed into hot buildings.  Surely these Washington upper echelon types smelled the neglect, the despair.  Twenty feet away from Pence were men showing with their fingers they'd been there for forty days.
     A guest on the MSNBC show, a former Border Patrol agent, said the holding pen looks similar to a drunk tank where inmates should spend no more than twenty-four hours.  This agent also said the climate of racism and contempt for Latinos coming north from their respective countries in the south is pandemic in the Border Patrol.  Just recently, the head of Border Patrol was revealed to have been a member of a Facebook account run by Border Patrol members who displayed their racist views openly.  Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, not surprisingly, is hated by these disgusting fuckers.  They've posted memes of the congresswoman engaged in faked-photo acts of hardcore sex.
     Donald Trump has piled on, attacking the so-called Squad, four progressive Democratic women--Ilhan Omar, Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley--for their opposition to Speaker Nancy Pelosi.  Pelosi has criticized them in a condescending manner recently.  Their back and forth enmity goes back a ways.  Pelosi and the Squad are fundamentally and morally on opposite sides.  Trump now defends Pelosi (whom he actually hates), misinterpreting (on purpose maybe) Ocasio-Cortez's pointing out that the Squad are all "women of color."
     Nancy's a racist? thinks Trump.  No one gets away with calling Nancy Pelosi a racist, not on my watch!
     Trump tweeted that the Squad should "go back to their own countries and try to change things there."
     For this to happen, Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib, and Pressley would stay in the U.S. because this is where they're from.  They are trying to make changes happen in this fucked-up country.  Ilhan Omar grew up in a refugee camp in Somalia.  She knows what it's like to be at the bottom of society, homeless because of power players in distant capitals making financially based power decisions, the chaos from those decisions blamed officially on "others," "terrorists," "immigrants," "refugees."
     Today is supposed to be the day when Trump's executive action against illegal immigrants across the country takes effect, making ICE into the SS once and for all.  Substitute the words illegal immigrants for Jews and you get my point.  This is a country run by a psychopathic and sociopathic privileged class.  Trump's past association with billionaire child rapist Jeffrey Epstein (in custody awaiting trial) could have something to do with the timing of his ICE raids.  His tweet against the Squad has definitely occupied much airtime on cable news.  Trump, if nothing else, is a master of distraction.
     The Epstein scandal involves a lot of wealthy people.  Bill Clinton claims to have flown on Epstein's private jet, the Lolita Express (the actual name of the aircraft), just four times.  Flight logs obtained by court order reveal he actually flew on it twenty-six times.  Epstein owns a vast house in Manhattan, a mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, and an island, Little St. James, part of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
     He owns an island.
     On this island, reportedly, sex parties occurred.  The aptly named private jet would fly guests to the island where, I'm assuming, they did whatever the fuck they wanted to do to underage girls.  If you want to believe that men with the known characters of Donald Trump and Bill Clinton would never fuck underage girls you must have a stronger faith than I do in rich degenerates.
     Why would Clinton insist on just the four flights?  It means, at least, he's reluctant to own up to the other twenty-two.  Why would that be?  It means he has something to hide in relation to the flights and his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.  Given that Epstein has been accused, plausibly, by numerous women (underage girls at the time) of having sex with them, of making them have sex with other men, of raping them, too, it's not a stretch of the imagination to assume that Bill Clinton doesn't want the world to find out he's a statutory rapist.  Still, given the evidence of his twenty-six flights on that plane, it's amazing he lies about it; or not, if we assume this is an example of his contempt for the law, the truth, for most of the human race.
     Bear in mind that Bill Clinton, while president, killed approximately half a million Iraqi children in his siege warfare (economic sanctions) against the people of that country.  Denying half a million needy children basic medicines and nutrition, on purpose, should be a crime, but it also might get a man like Clinton the Nobel Prize.
     Epstein's case reminds me of The 120 Days of Sodom by the Marquis de Sade.  Four rich pieces of shit go to a villa and spend 120 days torturing, sexually abusing, and ultimately murdering a large group of lower class young men and women.  They can get away with this because they're wealthy.  Who has the power?  Not the victims, not the people in the holding pen looking at Mike Pence.
     Pence tweeted that the Border Patrol is doing a fine job, that the inmates of the detention centers are being treated with compassion.
     In trying to get into the mind of this psychopathic man (who, as Governor of Indiana, signed a bill making it required that aborted remains of embryos or fetuses be given funerals) I can only conclude that he doesn't see the people behind the fence as human beings.
     Donald Trump said, "I would've loved to go--I sent Vice President Pence instead."
     Yes, we can be sure Trump would've loved to have been in that room with the stink of desperation caused by himself.  Trump's racism is documented back to 1973 when he played a hand in preventing African Americans from living in some of his apartment buildings.  It must've existed all of his life, not just springing into being in 1973.  Now that he has such expanded powers as the "leader of the free world," and not just the power of a New York landlord, he can punish those he hates: African Americans, Latinos and Latinas, especially the illegal kind.  Muslims, too.
     He likes to punish, and Pence, with his cruel and sick Christianity, also enjoys being a complete and utter prick.  Donald Trump's mother was a Scottish immigrant, his grandfather a German immigrant.  His current wife is a Slovenian immigrant.  Do these facts ever occur to him?  If he were to take his own advice to the Squad and go back to where he came from, it would be near the end of World War Two in a nice neighborhood in Queens.  Fred Trump, his father, would be fucking a woman, planting a Donald John Trump seed inside a Scottish immigrant.  He would spend nine months inside an immigrant, to be born into a country built by immigrants, growing up to be their persecutor, and we let this shit happen.
