44. It is all 2+25 with these people
Fri Jun 27, 2025, 05:59 AM
Jun 2025

They wake up in the morning and recite it as their Mantra: "2+2=5, 2+2=5, 2+2=5" before their morning coffee or other drug of choice. They hum it as they dress for the day, as they await their driver to take them to work.

"2+2=5, 2+2=5 . . . . . . " It keeps them focused on the lie that is Trump-Miller.

Hegseth called it the greatest and most hugest successful secret plan ever in the universe's history carried out successfully, because "2+2=5." That Normandy invasion thing was a little thing, a tiny little achievement . What was it? 250,000 combatants and as many support troops from several different nations preparing for months and the Nazis had no idea where the attack was going to take place until the day of the attack itself. Egos, some almost as bloated as Trump's, had to be placated and kept from striking out on their "heroic" own. Big deal!

But Trump managed to crerte a brilliant diversion by telling Iran and the world "two weeks" and then bombing the heck out of areas which may have contained their nuclear enrichment program -- or not; which may have set Iran's atomic bomb program back years -- or not.

Now the Fascists in the House and Senate are in lock step getting ready to pass Big Brother's Bill, and millions of Americans agree with the Bill because 2+2=5.
