Live from Reno: Gambling on Trump & friends is a really bad bet!
The subject of my talk will be my latest detective novel, "Road Trip to
Damascus". It's awesome. And, knowing me, you can probably guess who
the villain might be. Spoiler alert: It's the CIA. https://www.amazon.com/Road-Trip-Damascus-Jane-Stillwater/dp/1548204730
But speaking of winning and losing, America is currently being run by
the biggest bunch of losers on the planet. Boy, would I love to speak
on a panel discussion about them -- hopefully on CNN but I'd even settle
for Fox News. However, nobody in my country seems to want to hear
about America's Biggest Losers. And of course I'm talking about
President Donald Trump and friends. Trump's list of BFFs reads like
a murder-mystery too -- or actually more like a horror story. Let's
just take a look:
First let's consider Trump himself. The man thrives on chaos -- but
unfortunately the rest of us do not. And then there's Vice President
Pence, who appears to want to put every woman in America into cages and
only allow us out to give birth and dust furniture. Happy Women's
History Month to us. We'll soon be back in the Dark Ages if Pence gets
his way.
And apparently Trump's perspective National Security Advisor John Bolton has plans to
make us all so secure that our coffins will fit us just right.
Secretary of State nominee Pompeo has wet dreams of starting a nuclear
war with (fill in the blank). Secretary of Defense Mattis thinks that
the best defense for America is to get us all killed so we won't have to
worry about surviving World War 3 any more. https://www.commondreams.org/news/2018/03/16/warnings-civilization-threatening-disaster-john-bolton-tops-list-mcmaster
Trump's nominee for the head of the CIA, Gina Haspel, is addicted to
torture. Hope you haven't had a mani-pedi lately because there goes
your nails. She's the kind of bad guy I wrote about in my
murder-mystery -- and she could be coming to your town soon too.

United Nations ambassador Haley appears to have totally dedicated her life to
murdering every single Syrian still left alive -- and she knows how to
lie, cheat and steal to get the job done too, is even far better at it
than Colin Powell was regarding WMDs in Iraq. Will she be coming after
us next as well? Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas. http://www.newsweek.com/now-mattis-admits-there-was-no-evidence-assad-using-poison-gas-his-people-801542
But Trump's most scary Besties of all are Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Everyone knows that the Saudis cut off people's heads and fund ISIS --
and yet Trump asks them to the freaking White House for dinner and
friends them on FaceBook and Twitter.
And the stuff of nightmares that Israeli neo-cons have happily
perpetrated in Gaza makes my blood curl. And yet the monsters
responsible for creating the worst concentration camp since Auschwitz are all
Trump's BFFs. Why is it that liberals hate, hate, hate Trump but love,
love, love his BFF Israel? Can't they see the connection? I'll never
be able to figure that one out. Still a mystery to me. https://www.ucpress.edu/book.php?isbn=9780520295711
PS:
Although Trump always touts himself as the owner of Casino America, in reality
he's not even a pit boss -- more like a wannabe blackjack dealer on the
graveyard shift.
Then who exactly are America's true casino owners and high rollers?
The Deep State? The military-industrial complex that eats its young?
The neo-con Israel lobby? The wolves of Wall Street? The dark money
behind Citizens United? We may never know. The only thing that we do
know for certain is that it ain't you or me -- and it's definitely not
Donald Trump.
