Breathe In….Breathe Out!

As many of you may know, I had the privilege of serving in the press corps in the White House during the late 80’s and met some super smart and dedicated people in journalism who knew how to track down a story.

I have been fortunate to remain in contact with many of those intrepid reporters and we kick it around now and then about what is what in D.C.

However. I simply was not mentally ready for a thick brown envelope that was

delivered to me via FED EX a few days ago at my downtown office.

Immediately, I knew where it was from and the group who sent it to me because the packet had the symbol of a balled fist holding three yellow thunderbolts on the flap; it was our code of signaling an emergency that would rank DEF CON 4 if the public were to be apprised of it.

I ran a blue stethoscope image over the package to make sure it was drama free and did not have any fingerprints on it that could be traceable to my impeccable sources.

Gingerly, I opened the package and spilled out its contents on my dining room table. To say that I repeatedly gasped would be an understatement, for

what was in that poured out pile would or could shut this country down if it

got into the wrong media handlers.

If you believe, as you should, that a repeated lie can run faster than a slow truth, you will see that America, if left unguarded from certain rightwing elements who are pushing for a totalitarian government, is primed to be

deconstructed as a democracy; to be controlled by fanatics who believe

that a Trumpian government is our only hope against the fabricated left wing

commies and the proverbial, “Deep State.”

The below itemized conspiracy theories are on a time-release schedule so as

to so overwhelm the American public that they will simply give up the fight and champion the lies and distortions of Trump and his clown car of cabinet

members and oligarchs.

For a primer on what you are about to read, go to the library and check out

George Orwell’s Animal Farm and 1984…two classics that were prophetic about what life in the future in America could resemble.

So brace yourself and read on but remember, these quack conspiracy theories (aka: lies) will only gain currency as right wing “truths” if you are apathetic about voting, demonstrating or keeping informed about policies and personalities that do not have your best interest at heart.

(1) All of the gold stored in Fort Knox has been secretly transferred to deep underground vaults at Mar-A-Lago and what remains at Fort Know is AI generated images of the gold still being there.

(2) Trump will declare a national emergency two months before the 2028 general elections due to contrived bombing scares that will stampede the gullible in renewing a call for law and order at any cost.

(3) NASA and Elon Musk have collaborated to secretly place in orbit TF-34B

laser platforms that have the capacity to harness energy from the sun and

develop an ability to shoot deadly energy bolts at the speed of light, able to target within five yards, either people or buildings that are suspect of being anti-Trump.

(4) The US Supreme Court will nullify the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1965 and mysteriously, two of the dissenting judges will be reported missing on a small sailing craft found drifting in the St. Lawrence Seaway.

(5) Trump will offer Denmark two trillion dollars for the sale of Greenland and it will be an all cash offer financed by his tech billionaires “bros.”

(6) Joe Biden will go on a speaking tour about the excesses of the Trump

administration but while in the City of Montgomery, the stage on which he is speaking, will cave in and cause injuries to Biden and he must leave the speaking circuit and recover at home. (Note: the platform failure was AI generated!).

(7) The  tariff wars will increase to the point that certain stores like Target, Walmart and Loews will only be open two days a week and credit cards will not be accepted…cash only.

(9) Head Start and SNAP programs will be eliminated on the basis that the states need to raise their own funds to support the needs of feeding the poor and assisting the poorly educated.

(9) White birth rates will fall to an all time low level so that Trump will grant

White birth mothers $10,000 per birth along with a generous

housing allowance and food vouchers up to an amount of $800 per month for five years. This will be challenged in court on the basis of equal

protection.

(10) Tourism will be discouraged due to tourists taking dollars outside of the

US and spending it abroad and not at home. Only certain countries will be

permitted to admit American tourists. There are no Asian or African countries on that permitted list.

I read what I read, memorized the list and quickly made a fire in my fireplace and burned up the documents…and none too soon for there was a knock at my front door and masked agents in unmarked cars were in my driveway…..to be continued.
