    Remember Ronny Jackson? The quack doctor who said Trump is the healthiest person to ever be president, could live to 200, rhapsodized over Trump's strong powerful body, said every test was positive. (A positive test means person has disease or condition. Usually you want test to be negative.) He is also a Navy officer who was reduced in rank over multiple instances of sexual harassment and drunkenness on the job.

    He had his rank restored by DUI hire. Recognized a kindred spirit.

    West Point alumni association planned to give Tom Hanks an award for his positive portrayal of military personnel in movies.

    Award abruptly cancelled. Apparently pressure by Trump administration because Hanks supported Biden in 2020.

    New York drug dealer whose sentence was commuted by Trump (he is rich and white) is facing five years for violating terms of his release after being arrested on a series of charges. Allegedly threatened a nurse and synagogue member, sexually abused family's nanny and evaded bridge tolls.

    Criminals got to crime.

    Republican senator Eric Schmitt of Missouri said quiet part out loud at National Conservatism Conference. Once a fringe gathering, conference now attended by Cabinet members, Congress people and in past years Vance. Conference included workshops on threat of Islam and overturning marriage equality.

    Schmitt argued against concept that America is an idea or ideal that anyone can be part of. In speech What is an American he said that America is based not on ideals but on blood and soil. Americans are descendants of white Christian pilgrims who he alleges built this country (not slaves, god forbid, to acknowledge slavery is white guilt). Schmitt, who is of German descent and not one of the pilgrims, said immigrants cannot be truly American. That immigrants dilute and destroy the country.

    He decried the "five little words" in Declaration of Independence, all men are created equal. Which Declaration called self evident. He opposed even more the Seneca Falls declaration that all men and women are created equal. Schmitt said clearly all men are not equal. And problems country has derive from misunderstanding that we are equal and anyone can become American.
