We, in 2026 Amerika, are nothing more than the lyrics to a great song by The Rolling Stones. Jagger lays it all out in this 1968 retort to the evils of this our Amerikan Empire. Did I just say 1968? Imagine dear children, students of mine, how nothing had changed by then… and now! The smell of this Deep State sewer just penetrates our senses. The Deep State that the con man, real estate hustler and present day grifter Donald J used to accent his ascension into power… twice! Now he wants to pay off the Storm Trooper suckers who followed his mantra to beat up DC cops and forcefully break into our Capitol Building. Here’s what Mick and company would say about that:
Sympathy for the Devil by The Rolling Stones
Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
I’ve been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man’s soul an faith
I was ’round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzlin’ you
Is the nature of my game
Stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Tsar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general’s rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, ah yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out
Who killed the Kennedy’s
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reach Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
But what’s puzzlin’ you
Is the nature of my game, ah yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
But what’s confusin’ you
Is just the nature of my game, mm yeah
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
‘Cause I’m in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politeness
Or I’ll lay your soul to waste, mm yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, mm yeah
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game.
Did anyone lately take a gander at ‘The Man Who Would Be King’? If there was ever a case for demonic possession we now have it. That grifter’s grin merged with cognitive failure is right out of The Exorcist. The policies of his administration are the opposite of what should have been done: Laying off lifetime civil servants. Shutting important federal agencies. Cutting Medicaid and other aid to the poor and indigent. Seeing rural hospitals close. Raising tariffs, which any high school student knows are taxes that hurt us working stiffs the most. Sending thugs AKA Storm Troopers with masked faces and lethal immunity to threaten anyone who gets in their way (Remember Renee Good and Alex Pretti?). Using tariffs and DOGE cuts to legitimatize massive tax cuts for the Super Rich… while making sure his sycophants like Bondi and Patel keep the lid on the Epstein Files, where he is mentioned thousands of times. And now, a phony, illegal attack AKA War on Iran costing us $ billions, while the demon in him brags about ballrooms!
The sad reality is not so much that close to 70% of us polled are fed up with this guy and his regime… but that over 30% still support him! There is not and should not be any sympathy for these devils!!
