IMPLOSION!!!

     A house divided against itself and all that. Remember? Well, I know not what else to expect here other than the implosion of this house seriously divided against itself. Implosion will not be pretty and in fact, it is not pretty already. Besides the shame of it all, besides the ugly picture we are presenting to the world as they look at us with horrified and wondering eyes, thinking, "what have they been drinking or smoking?", besides all this, we need to ask ourselves just what the hell is going on and how we have gotten here. But even more important is the answer to the question of how do we get outta here?
     We are now developing into a hate filled and hate split nation. Everyday we wake up to more hate events. Swastikas painted on a person's home. Old canards being resurrected. The homes of Indians being burned because some moron thinks they are Muslims as if that was justification of it and now there is an expressed and explicit fear that in the rush to increase immigration officers so we can make our country 'safe" by throwing out all the south of the border people who had the temerity to hope for and build a better life here, in this rush we are hiring those who should be beyond the pale and not even in the hiring picture at all. These are the same guards who would have done well at Auschwitz and Bergen - Belsen, who would have patrolled the streets of the ghettoes just fine, who are open to the bribes and to the threats, to the use of the weapons and force. What the hell are we doing? What? It scares the living daylights out of me. We even have had the KKK sign being hung  in a small town. What are we doing? Trump, what the hell have you done, what jar have you opened, what pathway into hell have you prepared?
    Part of the problem is the paranoia central to this administration, that and the fact that they believe that no rule applies to them. So they can call Preet Bharara though contact between White House and Federal prosecutor is a no no. And what was the call about supposedly? The crazy Trump wanted to tell Bharara that he was doing a great job - and then kick his ass out!!
     And then of course, besides there being all sorts of tapping going on in Trump Tower and who knows where, like hey, maybe the flags on the holes of Trump's golf course in West Palm, now Conway, that utter twit, states there were all sorts of nefarious deeds of watching going on. Even the TVs were being used to watch. Paranoia!! Yes, some people are mentally ill, need meds, but these people should not be in the forefront of the present administration, the one running the country.
     And let us continue watching the implosion and watch ever more closely as the ultimate plans of Trump et al come to fruition. It began with the nominees and their utter unsuitability for these positions. And now it continues. The following paragraph says it better than I. "The spending budget Trump is set to release Thursday will offer the clearest snapshot of his vision for the size and role of government. Aides say that the president sees a new Washington emerging from the budget process, one that prioritizes the military and homeland security while slashing many other areas, including housing, foreign assistance, environmental programs, public broadcasting and research. Simply put, government would be smaller and less involved in regulating life in America, with private companies and states playing a much bigger role."
     Yes, folks, this is what is to become of "these United States".
No longer will we look out for those in need.
No longer will we work towards improving life for all.
No longer will we work towards improving our natural environment and indeed, even perhaps turn back some of the damage.
No longer will we care for children. Nope.
No longer will we do anything but watch and see how we have turned over the government and the entire country to the Fat Cats, to the very swamp critters that Trump spoke of, the lying bastard!
     Implosion is not pretty. It is not good. It is  not pleasant. I had my own personal implosion yesterday as my foot swelled again within the cast and I could not breathe, could only sit and panic as my pressure shot up again and my heart went bonkers. It is a panic inducing thing, this implosion, particularly when one cannot think or figure out what to do and it is  Sunday in Florida, a bad day to need help. Thank the Lord above my surgeon is a wonderful person and answered my calls to her personal phone. Thank the Lord above that Good Sam did a yeoman's job yesterday but do not think that the panic is not still there, that the fear of this happening again is not front and center still. Implosion is not pretty nor is it good for the state of the human body or the body politic of the state.
     I believe that we have implosion building here in the Village as well. We have too many people who are asking questions, too many for David Israel and his posse and hate filled people to designate as discards by calling them names. Too many people who now want to know just what the hell is going on. Implosion can be avoided if the UCO offices are opened up, if David stops throwing people under the bus as yet another long time UCO volunteer has left due to nasty politics. It can be avoided if David stops this childish blocking of people, including me, from taking my rightful place within UCO and serve on committees. But no, he will continue to play these silly and dangerous game until implosion.
     And the Trump administration thinks that it, too, can do as it wishes and change the body politic of our country, our beloved America. Oh, they will try and they will succeed to a certain point, but at the critical point, at the proper critical mass, there will be implosion. I pray to G-d that we avoid that and get rid of this man and his destructive views and crews before it is too late.
