My portrait of Trump is a plump little man who is a bush league Führer who feeds off his self-delusions. He finds himself perpetually hungry for some kind of greatness and like his goose-stepping predecessors, he blames the world for the conspiracies of the black man and yellow man for the stumbling blocks they put in his way. Although his mind is in the sewer, his lexicon includes strength, faith, and truth, none of which belong to him.

Just today found this, while re-reading the book; it's from a section about Albert Einstein's time at the Institute for Advanced Studies (Princeton), and his friendship with Kurt Gödel (he of the Incompleteness Theorem). Apologies for length, but context is all.

Einstein and Gödel hit it off immediately. As Einstein said, he would go to the office "just for the privilege of walking home with Kurt Gödel." When Gödel fell ill, Einstein came and looked after him. When Gödel applied for American citizenship and was about to be sworn in, he found what he perceived was a logical inconsistency in the American Constitution that would allow the country to descend into tyranny. Einstein stepped in and went with Gödel to prevent him from sabotaging his own citizenship ceremony.
    -- Pedro G Ferreira: The Perfect Theory, p77

Full disclosure: Pedro was a colleague and friend of mine, and gave me the copy I'm re-reading. One of these days, I'll have to ask him where he got all that from, and in particular whether anybody has documented what that "logical inconsistency" may have been. In the light (or darkness) of current events, we may have need of that information.

It took until a news article pointed out that Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey, worked in the U.S. Attorney's Office of the Southern District of New York on the Epstein case, for her to be fired by the White House. DOJ fires Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey and a prosecutor in Sean Combs' and Ghislaine Maxwell's cases
Comey prosecuted Sean “Diddy” Combs this year and played a role in the investigation and subsequent prosecutions of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Federal prosecutor Maurene Comey, the daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, was fired by the Justice Department on Wednesday, according to four sources familiar with the matter.

It was not clear why. One of the sources said the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York cited Article II of the Constitution, which establishes the executive power of the president.

Nick Biase, a spokesperson for the Southern District of New York, declined to comment.


I'm surprised it took them this long, she would have been low hanging fruit for Trump who is all about persecuting the families of his antagonists.

Today there are "Good Trouble" protests all across the US.

Tens of thousands in US set to join ‘Good Trouble’ protests honoring John Lewis
Rallies at more than 1,500 sites nationwide planned for Thursday to protest against Trump administration
The “Good Trouble Lives On” day of action coincides with the fifth anniversary of Lewis’s death. Lewis was a longtime congressman from Georgia who participated in iconic civil rights actions, including the march from Selma to Montgomery in 1965 when police attacked Lewis and other protesters on the Edmund Pettus Bridge.

Lewis implored people to participate in “good trouble, necessary trouble” to advance their causes, and this call serves as the underpinning for the 17 July actions. Dozens of advocacy and civil rights organizations are signed on as partners for the event.

“The civil rights leaders of the past have shown us the power of collective action,” the protest’s website says. “That’s why on July 17, five years since the passing of congressman John Lewis, communities across the country will take to the streets, courthouses, and community spaces to carry forward his fight for justice, voting rights, and dignity for all.”

Why has CBS not featured the good trouble protests?

The defensive and long-winded tone and tenor of Trump's posts about Epstein make him sound guilty as hell. After all, Epstein died on Trump's watch/term. He is calling him the man who will not die.
All of the blame Trump claims is on the good-for-nothing fake news Democrats. One might easily speculate that Trump is central in the Epstein files while Clinton and others are not.

Ghislaine, Epstein's assistant, would gladly accept a Presidential pardon and have Trump lawyers write her testimony since she is currently serving a 20-year sentence in Florida.

As a trained clinical psychotherapist, expert in shamanism, and human being with a basic brain…. I concur.
Brent Molnar: Voice of Reason ~ 'The Man-Child in Chief: Why Donald Trump’s Behavior Isn’t Just Alarming—It’s Clinical…
At this point, calling Donald Trump a sociopath feels like stating water is wet. But throw that term around too loosely and people stop hearing it. So let’s be precise. What if the erratic cruelty, the compulsive lying, the open disdain for rules and empathy—it’s not just some quirky political branding. What if it’s a documented, diagnosable pattern? Because it is.
And understanding it might be the first real step toward protecting what’s left of American democracy.
Sociopathy—officially known as Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD)—isn’t some cartoonish label you slap on a villain. It’s a well-defined clinical condition. It starts early, often appearing in childhood as conduct disorder—aggression, deceit, a lack of remorse—and fully emerges in adulthood as a complete disregard for others, rules, and basic morality. It’s not about being mean. It’s about being wired to harm without guilt.
Trump’s entire life fits that arc. His father, a distant real estate baron who valued dominance over decency. His mother, emotionally unavailable. A home life that trained him not in compassion, but in conquest. And what we see now—what we’ve always seen—isn’t a break from that past. It’s the fulfillment of it. Trump isn’t unwell because of power. He got power because he was unwell in a way that ruthless systems reward.
Look at the checklist: No remorse for pain caused? Check. Disregard for laws, norms, and human dignity? Check. Chronic lying, even when it gains him nothing? Bullying those beneath him, worshipping those above? All boxes checked. And still, millions confuse his behavior for “strength.” In reality, it’s a toddler in a suit with the nuclear codes and a permanent grudge.
The tragic twist? Authoritarians and autocrats abroad have figured this out. Trump’s second-term travel itinerary is a map of manipulation. NATO leaders learned: flatter him, and he’ll do whatever you want. Putin knew it. So did MBS. So does Musk. His emotional development stopped sometime before junior high, and it shows. If you coddle the ego, you get the policy.
But let’s not sugarcoat this: Trump’s inner circle is now filled with people just like him. Not sober adults with institutional memory or democratic instincts—but fellow man-babies with vendettas, fragile egos, and no ethical guardrails. And when developmentally stunted men hold real power, they don’t just throw tantrums. They break countries.
We’re already seeing it. Arresting political opponents. Threatening judges. Openly demanding revenge. Surrounding himself with yes-men willing to torch institutions to stay in his good graces. This isn’t just a moral collapse—it’s a psychological time bomb.
So what do we do? First, call it what it is. Trump’s behavior isn’t “eccentric.” It’s pathological. Then we build movements—not just to oppose policies, but to inoculate ourselves against this style of politics. Because this isn’t just about Trump. It’s about a system that rewards antisocial traits and mistakes immaturity for strength.
We need voters to stop falling for tough-guy cosplay. We need to educate people about what this kind of psychological profile actually looks like—and why it’s disqualifying, not admirable. We need to rebuild civic life around empathy, truth, and shared responsibility. And we need to do it fast.'

From the Hollywood Reorter, a statement from Maurene Comey about her sacking…

“Yesterday was unexpectedly my last day in the Office. I was summarily fired via memo from Main Justice that did not give a reason for my termination. Every person lucky enough to work in this office constantly hears four words to describe our ethos: Without Fear or Favor. Do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons without fear of retribution and without favor to the powerful.

For the majority of my nearly ten years in SDNY, fear was never really conceivable. We don’t fear bad press; we have the luxury of exceptional security keeping us physically safe; and, so long as we did our work with integrity, we would get to keep serving the public in this office. Our focus was really on acting “without favor.” That is, making sure people with access, money, and power were not treated differently than anyone else; and making sure this office remained separate from politics and focused only on the facts and the law.

But we have entered a new phase where “without fear” may be the challenge. If a career prosecutor can be fired without reason, fear may seep into the decisions of those who remain. Do not let that happen. Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought. Instead of fear, let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power. Of commitment to seek justice for victims. Of dedication to truth above all else. It has been an honor to fight for those principles by your side.”

Shades of 1930s/40s Germany, methinks…

It's not new, but the Presidency has passed through the gates of absolute perversion as he insults his QAnon anti-Epstein base instead of flirting with them. Trump will have to have make-up sex with Tucker, Rogan, and Bannon.
Suing FOX News for telling the truth is new for Trump. Donald sues more people and institutions than Big Macs he devours. It's possible he encountered more young ladies in Epstein's stable in his day than Quarter Pounders he has for dinner.

Epstein may have been the only murder that Trump ordered, but as the Donald annoyingly says, "he won't stay dead".

As you can see, it's like Christmas, only merrier.
When I make a supposition, the word 'may' appears before the possibility. Comic relief does not need the word may. I don't seriously expect Joe Rogan to make love with Trump. However, politics makes strange bedfellows.

I believe Trump is overtired and has made an extreme faux pas against his base, which is uncharacteristic of his bond with his conspiratorial partners.

Trump only sues to make money from people who have money and gloat over doubling his retribution, like punishing a jealous cuckold husband.

To quote a very old Oz comedy show, "It was a joke, Joyce!"

The number of deaths which are a consequence of Trump's orders are uncountable: COVID mismanagement, stopping USAID, Capitol riot, giving Putin leeway to carry out his attacks on Ukraine, the list goes on. Whether Epstein was murdered or committed suicide will probably never be known for sure. If it was murder there are a lot of rich, powerful men who could have ordered it. Trump could be one of those men, or maybe not. Who will ever know? There are a lot of women who could have wanted revenge on Epstein too, but those women did not have the power or means to do it, IMHO.

There are gaps in the video record at the jail. There are lots of theories about Epstein.

What isn't a theory is how Trump is earning his billions these days - filing frivolous "lawsuits" that result in legal payoffs so his government will do what big businesses want. It seems Epstein could be a bridge too far for some of those who would otherwise calmly pay Danegeld to keep Trump off of their backs.

I would suggest that Trump has already ordered many killings, though they are indirect. He has set up circumstances that have resulted in many deaths, and as a sociopath he has no empathy or concern for those lives.

Regarding the many, many deaths Trump has engineered, I keep thinking of the final scene of an episode of the TV show Medium where the ghost of a man who was a serial killer (from memory, or some other aggravating crimes resulting in many deaths) appears in a room. One by one his victims' ghosts also appear until he is crushed (figuratively speaking) by the large crowd as they advance purposefully closer and closer towards him.

Similar to Trump's yearning for a Nobel Peace Prize, I suspect he also expects to be welcomed with a large celebratory crowd as he proudly advances through Heaven's gate. Maybe he is in for an alternative welcome from the spirits of people who have died as a consequence of his actions. Maybe he will finally have the huge crowd he has been pretending to have at all of his rallies, but maybe he won't be pleased to be confronted by them. Maybe he won't be happy to see that the gate is not to Heaven but to a far more uncomfortable place.

Sorry! That little piece of fiction gives me some comfort, even though it is only imaginative fiction.

Fiction, but fitting, Helen. I may have mentioned it hereabouts before, but the worst possible thing someone marching in front of a zombie army can do is stumble.

.... Sly thought: There's been a telly programme for us East-Pondians, examining whether His Execresence might really be a Russian "asset". The main answer was basically "no, but he doesn't need to be" (it's cheaper to lead him by the nose, all unwitting). Either way, what would a competent controller's way of disposing of an overcooked asset be? throw him to his own baying zombies, perhaps? But it's way past midnight here, and I'm getting to that slightly zonked state of mind so beloved of conspiracists that makes two-plus-two look uncomfortably close to five.

I just listened to Heather Cox Richardson talk about the latest Epstein activity as far as Trump is concerned, and it sounds like . . . well, every time it sounds like the shit is finally going to hit the fan, Teflon Don somehow dodges it. But the deflowering of pubescent girls may be more than even the MAGA crowd can stomach.

July 18, 2025 this is the written text (in a separate mailing is a link and paid subscribers get to hear her read it). Here is part of it:
Now we know why President Donald J. Trump earlier this week began saying nonsensically that Democrats he dislikes wrote the Epstein files. Apparently, Trump was trying to get out in front of the story Khadeeja Safdar and Joe Palazzolo broke last night in the Wall Street Journal, reporting that Trump contributed what the newspaper called a “bawdy” letter to a leather-bound album compiled by Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell in 2003 for Epstein’s 50th birthday.

The journalists say the letter “contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly “Donald” below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.”

The lines of text represent an imaginary conversation between Trump and Epstein:

“Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything.

“Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.

“Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is.

“Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.

“Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it.

“Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?

“Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you.

“Donald: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday—and may every day be another wonderful secret.”

Florida police began investigating Epstein in 2005 after allegations that he had sexually abused a minor. They identified five victims and 17 witnesses, but ultimately the U.S. attorney in Miami, Alex Acosta, negotiated a plea deal with Epstein in 2008, by which Epstein pleaded guilty only to state charges, including soliciting a minor, and avoided federal charges. Trump appointed Acosta to be the secretary of labor in his first administration; Acosta resigned in 2019 after new reporting by the Miami Herald accused Epstein of abusing about 80 girls and women and showed how Acosta had shut down an FBI investigation into Epstein’s actions.

Gnomish prediction

Ghislaine Maxwell will receive a presidential pardon because all the charges against her were made up by the Democrats. She will deny that Trump was ever involved

We can only hope that now the ball has started rolling, the flood gates will open (excuse the mixed metaphors) and a coordinated campaign of women willing to stand against him will start. The difference between the turnip and Epstein is that the orange pervert will call on every resource he can abuse to silence the witnesses. They will need protcting from attacks to both discredit them and harm them physically.

> We can only hope that [....]

The opposition (including but not limited to the Democrats) have been playing the wishful-thinking card for so long that the card's stuck to their hands. It's a form of learned helplessness.* What worries me is that Vlad has managed to replicate this serf mentality in the Land of the Free™ as well as in the once-and-future USSR.

Side issue: The KGB and/or GRU were alleged in the aforementioned TV programme to have bought or otherwise compromised "hundreds" of US businessmen in the 1970s. It just happened that it was with Agent Orange that they hit the jackpot, and ended up defoliating the US body politic. (Those of a conspiracist cast of mind might wonder if those going after Hunter Biden knew from experience not only where to look, but also what to look for; but I couldn't possibly comment.)

* I include myself here.

The missing minute of video of the wrong two cell doors in Epstein's jail cell turned out to be a missing 3 minutes of the wrong two doors. The correct cell door is in an unseen foreground and could have picked up an entry. Three minutes is enough to paralyze and hang Epstein by 2 perpetrators. Having ONLY ONE killer would be more challenging. So much for the jail's suicide watch since Epstein was out of sight so he could have done himself in.

Trump's own posts this week are more incriminating than the WSJ letter that was not imaged but only described.

Happy anniversary of the bomb that nearly killed Hitler at the Wolf's lair.

If I was wrongly accused of being on Epstein’s alleged list, I’d be strongly advocating for it to be published in order to prove my innocence.

I wonder why The Orange Rapist doesn’t want it published?

There are many Trump propaganda commercials here in the US.
There is one against defense trial lawyers brought to you by MAAA MAKE AMERICA AFFORDABLE AGAIN. If Trump can get rid of enough defense law firms, he can fly free. The commercial lists all the crimes of defense lawyers, like using a fraudulent witness or corrupt doctors, defending criminals like MS13, etc.
Somehow, the average citizen is supposed to prosper once defense lawyers are gone.

Hitler had judges under his control, while defendants could plead guilty or defend themselves. Judges were able to shred defendants quickly. What raggytash said, I suspect, was accidentally true.

People are prosecuted based on circumstantial evidence even though there is reasonable doubt. So far, Trump uses libel laws; however, he is trying to make an assassination death threat case against Comey's 8647. Once my words here that are critical of Trump become criminal, the Constitution will have been destroyed.

A gift article from the New York TimesAn Accuser’s Story Suggests How Trump Might Appear in the Epstein Files
A former Jeffrey Epstein employee said that she told the F.B.I. in 1996 and 2006 about what she considered a troubling encounter with Donald J. Trump.
Ms. Farmer said that when she discussed her concerns with the New York Police Department, then with the F.B.I., she also urged them to take a broader look at the people in Mr. Epstein’s orbit, including Donald J. Trump, then still two decades from being elected president. She repeated that message, she said, when the F.B.I. interviewed her again about Mr. Epstein in 2006.

Her account is among the clearest indications yet of how Mr. Trump might have come to be named in the unreleased investigative files in the Epstein case, a matter that has generated another political uproar in recent weeks.

...Ghislaine, Epstein's assistant, would gladly accept a Presidential pardon and have Trump lawyers write her testimony since she is currently serving a 20-year sentence in Florida.

**************
Yep, sure enough Trump's former lawyer will be interviewing Ghislaine.
For distraction, Trump has accused Obama of a capital crime that carries the death penalty.

The Kennedy Center is no more. It will be called the Trump Center as a gift to Melania.

Because The Epstein files will become a drip drip release with no official disclosure, the facts are still leaking that Trump took the Epstein private jet to pedophile island seven times. This is according to the R. Senator from Kentucky, "That don't mean Trump had sex with all them young ladies."

Meanwhile, via RISKS Digest, a demonstration of an interesting interaction* between Artifical Incompetence and the natural product ....

A MAGA bot network on X is divided over the Trump-Epstein backlash (NBC News)

A previously unreported network of hundreds of accounts on X is using artificial intelligence to automatically reply to conservatives with positive messages about people in the Trump administration, researchers say.

But with the MAGA movement split over the administration's handling of files involving deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, the accounts' messaging has broken, offering contradictory statements on the issue and revealing the AI-fueled nature of the accounts. [...]

The clickable link given for the NBC article is (ironically) broken in the middle by an unfortunate line break, but the URL can be followed with care.

* I'd call it a "battle of halfwits", but I see no wits at all on display, and they're all supposed to be on the same side.

An MSNBC talking head actually said that Trump is wearing a transparent figleaf for all to see. Trump says Rupert Murdoch's WSJ is a mouthpiece for the Democrats.

tRUMP IS MAKING UP NEW WORDS as the clock ticks... like sedacitios kofefe, which hunt. Perhaps it means a sedated, unknown search.

He is being followed by either a wildfire, smoke, or stink, but of all his sex scandals, his base claims to care about this one. The more he tries to bury the past, the deeper he is digging a hole for himself.
Trump is hoping to Make America Greatly Amnesic.
