Just like last Monday, I had fifth century Pope St. Celestine I, founder of the papal diplomatic service and speaking of the words, “We are deservedly to blame if we encourage error by silence,” in mind as I prepared today’s post. I intended to follow the good pontiff’s advice and call out some of the more egregious errors of the week but there were just sooooooooo many!

It truly is too difficult to narrow them down to a chosen few. Do we skip the top cur and go with the Vice-dingaling-in-chief having a river level raised so he can go rafting on his sixth vacation of the year?

Maybe we should think hard about this when the orange menace and the red menace get together and say the Ukraine will have to give up some land without asking the Ukraine. Sort of like when the wannabe king-in-chief says for 60 years people have been wanting a proper ball room at the White House so he will build one that is 3 times bigger than the current ballroom and cover it in gold. The manchild has a thing about gold and getting other people to pay for it.

Let’s consider how the Department of Injustice is opening an investigation against the people who prosecuted, and won, the case against sphinctermouth when he was a regular citizen. This follows the pattern of “retribution” it has sought since the swearing in ceremony (the one it refused to place its hand on the Bible for) in January. And yes, I said sphinctermouth. Watch a video of it talking. If you can ignore the orange makeup and the accordion playing pantomime, and concentrate on his lips (like it does when watching its press secretary talk) you will see that classic sphincter movement.

CarrotFace continues his purge of FBI agents who had worked on the January 6 investigations. This was only days after Homeland Security released plans to lower the minimum age of masked avengers, errr wannabe secret police to 18 and raised the maximum age to unlimited. Perhaps the lure of full student loans reimbursement didn’t bring in the number of new recruits they were hoping for. But then you have to have gone to school to have incurred student debt.

Now we come to the two most egregious happenings. In the running for top disgusting distraction, was the plan to destroy two satellites orbiting the earth measuring carbon dioxide release and other climate altering effects. Not just taking them offline, but destroying $750million dollars of state-of-the-art climate monitoring equipment.

But perhaps the single most egregious occurrence of the week was discovering the Library of Congress had restored parts of the Constitution to the official online version of the U.S. Constitution. Why? Because sometime in the dark of history, not to mention the dark  of the night, a couple key sections of Article I were removed. Those parts included the right to habeas corpus that protects people from detention without just cause, the foreign emuluments clause addressing gifts to government employees (like prez), and several references to Congressional powers.

Don’t encourage errors by silence. Open your mouth and call your representatives. They may be beyond help but they’ll at least let you talk. Remind them that they likely will be out of a job by next year, if not voted out by the people, forced out by the kakistocracy. You can try your senator too but they are all just too far gone. Both parties have become dead ducks.

There is good news though. I will post some Thursday.
