In Defense Of Liars, Thieves, And Scumbags

We live in a world filled with those who are dishonest, untrustworthy, or act unethically. Just because you don't think so doesn't make it any less true. And in that world filled with those types of individuals, there are people who would still defend them to their last breath. It's a strange anomaly we are all witnessing more and more. But what can we do about it?

Since life has become a popularity contest in America, it’s the popular guys who are doing the most harm to the country's people. The everyday attacks, the “I’m right, he’s wrong” mentality that includes no room for debate, and the outright hatred and venom spewing that comes from the people America so stupidly listens to, are doing damage to a system that has been here for 250 years.

And so many will come out of the woodwork, like ants on the streets after a building is demolished, and vehemently defend the lying, manipulative scumbags who are guilty of ruining their areas. There is a complete and utter dissonance between the stance that these men are a better choice than the one great target of their hate. It’s so unbelievably obvious that the willful disregard for facts is blinding them more than they realize.

Nobody denies that the man who is the magnet of all this heat, hatred, and venom wasn’t the perfect choice for his office. But the difference between how they dealt with things and how their perceived opposition dealt with things became very obvious in 2026. In fact, the lying became so glowingly apparent that it should have come with images of their noses growing in front of their face.

As these people are paraded out in public as the thieving, lying scumbags that they are, there are reminders of their shameful behaviors. And their shameful behaviors need to be kept to a minimum, regionalized, and out of the reach of the national stages and more globalized access that these men wish they had. Imagine the difference between a warlord in Africa being a warlord in Africa, and that warlord being appointed to the head of the United Nations.

So, what did they do that makes them liars, thieves, and scumbags? That’s a good question!

It is deemed by most people, particularly those who claim to be democrats or progressives, that if a billionaire is benefiting from the taxpayers they represent, it’s unethical and illegal. What do you think of billionaires benefiting financially from the taxpayers they represent? And no, this isn’t about their salaries, or which billionaires give away their government salaries and which ones take them.

This is about their private businesses benefiting due to their official positions, or in connection to their official positions.

Is it thieving? It sure sounds like thieving when billionaires use tax payer dollars to improve their business properties, or their pocket books and wallets. They've got billions.

Republicans in the state of Illinois, who have suffered under this one party system of government, or tired of the routine. They want the billionaire out and someone more trustworthy in, if there is such a thing. Because long term governors have proven bad for Illinois, as have long term politicians, does anyone wonder why only the conservatives push for term limits? But let us digress.

It's the people on the mainstage that have lost our faith. From the Whitehosue to the poorhouse, politicians, suit wearing rich guys, and men who have lost touch with reality, have lost our faith. And that includes Kamala and Hillary, since they obviously haven't earned the faith to take them into the big office.

Their divisive rhetoric is often hypocritical. They pretend to be well liked, liked Gavin Newsom, who in a recent ABC Poll scored a pathetic 27 percent approval rating in his home state. They spew vitriol and hatred, and bash on every move their opponent makes, even when it is untested or unknown if it will work.

But, for all that can be said about Governor Newsom or Governor's Pritzker, Walz, and other governor's failures, there will no doubt be those who refuse to accept, Newsom has run California into the dirt, Pritzkers been a taxing heavy machine that has hurt Illinois businesses, and Walz's extremist views hurt their states. Look at Minnesota now. There are still arrests happening, there are still deportations, but local law enforcement is cooperating and helping maintain law and order. For all that bluster about no the federal government can't do this, once they started helping the government get things done, the conflicts on the streets changed.

It happened in Illinois, it happened in Minnesota, it happened in California, and garbage ideas flow from a source. They litter the streets and the countryside with the results, and then, they have no accountability for their mistakes. It's no wonder there's unnaccounted for billions in these states.

What can we do? We can remember, that when it comes to these men, they're not the rulers of us. We can still all come together and demand that they be held accountable. And then let the system do its job. Because at the end of the day, when it comes to Washington D.C. and most of our capitals,

"You'll never find a more retched hive of scum and villainy."
