Whose America First? Gospel, Prosperity versus Prosperity Gospel: gagablog 135

Pope Francis recently echoed my gagablog when he said to wait to judge Trump when asked if that is whom he referred to when he said reactionary, fear-based voting can lead to electing leaders like Hitler. I had basically said if you are opposed to the Prejudice that Trump claims to represent then, by definition, you should not pre-judge him, as a president, until he starts doing things. He has been president a few days (I started this on Wed or Thursday and finished it typing now on Saturday afternoon, so a full week, now) and I have  few (many  -skip around) things to say. I wonder if Gaga listens to Pope Francis, or reads this? I'll be quick as I can (I won't, actually. I saw a bumper sticker with Pope Palpatine, I mean, Benedict, the other day, with his picture. He looked evil, especially now, by comparison - he always looked that way to me, I mean, but with Memory and Since Then his image had en eerie quality, like a ghost or hologram, added.)

I've been talking about the Trump - Jesus connection lately but what I'm about to say may upset some so-called Christians. If you're scared of the amount of LSD that can make this obvous (or don't feel like getting into mysticism, meditation, googling Gnosticism or falling in love or dreams or art or anything else that will get you there) then this will be an easier way to understand it.

Putin recenty denied rumors that Trump had Golden Showers with Russian Prostitutes (though he rudely called them women of loose morals, he also said they were the best in the world at it, according to our translators.) Jesus hung with prostitutes and if you don't see the connection, you will. It may seem an imperfect "mirror", more like a funhouse mirror, but surf it with me - if you read all of this you will see more mirrored - keep in mind this is the perspective that none of us are "not Jesus" so let's not judge for a few minutes and see what That is like, okay?

Remember that voice, "why have you forsaken me?"

(I just put on the Beatles "Rubber Soul", the one I listened to as a kid since my parents had the record album, LP, vinyl   - the wax or Rubber Soul version, if you will)

When I tried to share my last edition to facebook they insisted I download their Trend Micro scanner, though Avast said I was clean, and it made my laptp completey unbootable (a stinkbug is crawling by and now up to a new one I'm using, now, across the home, enter, shift, control and mousepad at 4:12-4:13 PM, now back and across control shift " } \ - and I'm afraid I will accidentally make a werid code like the one that messed up my time-travel edition a few months back, but he went to the top of the screen, now. right side.) So I'm writing this out by hand (left corner, now, 4:15, and down that side) first, for the first time ever (headed back to the right, now, back to right corner)

Someone on the radio - I reallay want to say his name was Doug Weed (down across the center of the screen now, at the Acer logo, on the laptop - F 7, 7, U 8, 9 0, P - feeling up towards my fingers - more brackt keys and back up the right side.)  - said Trump and JFK had something in common - yes, I went there - I think his name was Weed (since I wrote this, Thursday or so, there was a fake News story that made the "real news," NPR, that Trump had died (circling around, and back across the keys again - I used y fingers to tempt him away completely so he'd stop distracting me but he's back, went across the Alt Gr button that time, now looking at me again) The comparison was that both had older brothers who were favored to carry on the family legacy-dynasty but fucked up or died and the mantle fell to John and Donald - the idea is that it forms an acute need to win or deserve that favor and show honor or amends to the lost sibling, too, a complex mantle to bear. This didn't happen to Jesus, supposedy (but mystically? Who is that other guy, those other folks? One of my last facebook posts was "Wait, didn't Jesus have a twin sister?") But it seems like Joseph's ancestors pulled some tricks like this, bithright-stealing, too, but their tricks are favored by God, apparently.

Two asides: Blood God and Patriarchy (the bug is leaving to the left side of the table, where the light is brighter, which he seemed to wan to avoid when I used my fingers to tempt him there, now he's coming back) Maybe just one aside. Susan Sarandon was on Carson last night, rerun from 1984 or so, and said it was the masculine side that is responsible for violence, the connection is the Blood God is Male, Patriarchy itself. Whoever other gods we claim to believe we all apparently believe in a Blood God who loves lots of killing and therefore declares whoever kills the most is the "right one"  - we act like we believe this by accepting War. I think this is total bullshit but above and beyond any other "belief" we claim to have we all seem to believe and accept this bullshit (as "Think For Yourself" comes on the cd). Patriarchy? I thought Jewish customs were matrilinial? Why does all that Begetting matter, and what does Joseph have to do with Jesus anyway, am I right? I just wonder if I'm confused because I'm ignorant or if there is some confusion in the tradition, even competing ideas and the wrong ones won, too many times, resulting in the hodge-podge we have now, instead of Unity.

Why does it matter that JFK and Trump both had older brothers who were due to inherit the empire? And that they somehow got it instead, despite custom? Due to an accident, problem, or can we call it fate?

If there is a God, by any name, an they be tricked? Or, do they like to play tricks? Why was Trump elected? Was it, is it, part of some Divine Plan? Or a Flaw in soe Divine Plan - that's a joke, right? How does that work?

I'll explain.

The FOX newscaster was explaining how the crowds had thinned out at the inaugeral parade - just before it during the live broadcast - due to a two-hour time delay and rainy cold weather - and while he was kind of ad libbing to fill time and let the various time zones know why their regular scheduled programming would not commence, he said "they were 'Thick as Thieves' out there - NOT a metaphor" - which I found hilarious, since of course he DID mean it only as a metaphor but was trying to say he did not mean they were thieves or had stolen the election, it was a funny faux pas - he's like a Demon, I think he's hilarious, I forget his name, seems like his initials are SS. Ever since there has been the "debate" raging between Trump and the media about how big the crowd was. I was waiting, in the minutes I watched, for them to show the crowd size and of course the only TV images or reports we had were from reporters, we only see what they showed. I don't know myself other than the pics of the white tarps on the lawn, which I assume were not tents and did not have people under them, suggesting empty space, that Obama's inaugerals were more crowded, but I don't know based on this - what if the crowds stretched out further into the city? I'm not taking Trump's side versus "clear photographic evidence" as the media always reminds us, just remembering how dishonest the media can be, pretending Jill Stein didn't exist and Bernie didn't win, only barely reporting on a few of the incredibly numerous oil-spills, over 28,000 gallons from a new well just the other day in Colorado which for some reason the Oil Company - Anna Darko ? -  is doing the environmental impact analysis for, sounds real impartial.

One meaning of the Numbers Of Attedees debate is the media is lying and the picstures and story are fake but they can get away with it. Another possibility is that Trump is Maniacllay insane (in an NPR roundtable yesterday, Friday - I wrote this part Thursday, by the way -  David Brooks said the two theories going around were that this was Orwellian, 1984 Double-speak, trying to destroy the meaning of words, or that it was like The Madness of King George, Trump is a maniacal narcissist and can't hear anything against himself, which David said he tends to believe. If Trump knows his "alternative facts" are lies but also knows he can distract the media and populace with this claim then he could be trolling and "we" fell for it so we spent less time reporting and addressing all the policies he's enacting.

The term "Alternative facts" went viral when Trump's former campaign manager (bug is back) and now advisor Kelly Ann Conway used it and comparisons to 1984 have made that the new #1 book with sales rising 10,000%  in the week since the inauguration. I'm not the only one who has been referencing it lately  - doublespeak was in full play all election, for sure - but it is another example of the gagablog being "ahead" of the news. I will say this as a Devil's Advocate that I can't believe the Trump team has not expressed as an excuse  / reason  - unless they just want the debate to continue. They, Trump especially, seems to assert that it was the largest crowd in person, and this is possible but I wonder if, since Press Guy Shawn Spicer said it was the largest audience but also referenced people wathing online or on TV, you an imagine how the total worldwide audience could have been the most-viewed, just as every superbowl is, just because as time passes more people have TV and internet, the audiences Always increase for things like this - telecast. So if this is what she meant by "alternaive facts" - just facts looking at an alternative set of figures, not the live audience, the worldwide audience, she is not even being "false" - but since they have not used this excuse it seems like Donald is either delusional or they are intentionally milking the "debate" - which seems most likely since it is one of those things that totally doesn't matter compared with everything else.

The problem is when you try to actually do some of the things he promised Trump will expose the flaws of the premise. All news stories this week will emphasize this point, that is the nature of "holographic reality" (magic, media magic, specifically, here) as science calls it - or fractals.

The Big News Story this week is about Trump and immigration with a side order of pipelines (Thurs -Friday before "bigger"-more news and executive orders) His new executive orders intend to threaten santuary cities and states with removal of federal fuunds. This action is the "rope to lynch himself with" we've all been waiting for and it only took a week (plus he added more lines since then, too.) He can back away from it but if he doesn't it will be the destruction of the Republican Party even if it has to take the whole country down with it.

By doing this he already destroyed one of the claimed foundations of Republicanism: States Rights. They usually only believe in States Rights to be racist anyway, not ideologically, really. The California Attorney General was on NPR today and said that Republicans used "States Rights" to oppose integration but now that it is California's right to protect immigrants and pursue green energy they are opposed to it. He said they used the 10th Amendment to try to undercut the Bill of Rights, Constitution, and 14th Amendment, to be racist and deny Civil Rights despite the best true spirit of these documents - even better than their writers intended, in cases, hence amendments, but the magic was that they appeal to the imagination of what Can be and therefore improve over time with the input of better imaginations. In contrast they are using the 10th Amendment to protect the rights of vulnerable citizens and protect the environment from victimization by heartless corporations. So when States Rights are invoked to protect Civil Rights - as I hoped they would be to protect weed in Colorado and elsewhere, and must thank Trump for respecting us, and this Huge Business, in that regard - it is "America"(I can't say "Democratic" anymore since the Democrats are so evilly corrupt they "gave us" Trump as the lesser evil) and using States Rights to protect corporations and government FROM the people, to oppress certain people, is "Republican" or racist.

America does NOT have to be racist. I mean, it is in the Costitution to be racist, the system anyway, and we are supposedly correcting that as we go but maybe we need to go much further, faster.

It almost doesn't matter because evil undoes itself. (an interview about Ducky.. I forget her name - restaraunt feeding the Freedom Riders was on NPR last night and she said it well about having more positivity and faith in those days, knowing if you perservere it will turn out alright.) Small-mindedness is swept away by bigger ideas and moments. Here is how it works: Trump threatens to cut federal funding to California. The California DA point out they will fight it every way they can, in court an otherwise, and Governor Jerry Brown supports this, too. Already Trump leaves an opening for anyone who Really believes in States Rights to be poached by his many opponents and abandons that claim. As far as thinking folks are concerned we never believed Republicans as a whole ever believed in ANY universal rights, only the protecting the privileges they have due to an unjust system. Their "rights" are always at the expense of everyone else's, the moral analogy of being rich while others are poor. This year the calculation is that 8 people own as much as the poorest 3.6 billion people in the world, the "bottom" half. Their wealth is literally made of half the world's poverty when you look at the whole system. In the same way the "rights" that Republicans insist upon exist at the expense of other people's rights.

Once you see this from the perspective of injustice, once you see both sides, all of these news stories become the same message. I'll spell it out. If Trump threatens California's federal funds, one action CA may take, if they can't stop it in court, is to stop paying the Federal Government the taxes etc that They collect. California is a donor state, they put more into the government than they get in federal funds. So a "boycott" between California and America would be a bad deal for America, a bad deal brokered by Trump  - we would lose a LOT - but it would, fractally, fit with his Pro-Brexit theme and "Me First" attitude - he manifests what he believes in even if it is wrong. California going Solo could end the United States, easily.

And I would say it is ironic but it is not, it is magical: One of the first things Trump did as President was to take a call from the leader of Taiwan, which upset China - Obama never recognized them like that. He may have indicated he will not support their "One China" policy that insists on a United China that includes Taiwan. We insits on a united States that includes California before anyone gets righteous. See how this works?

There are certainly terrible things about globalization  - and some good things, too. There are terrible things about nationalism  -and some good things, too. What we do in reaction, in fear or threatened pride, brings out the negative side. What we do hopefully, with a "pride" that connects all people instead of isolating some, brings out the positive. It is the tesion between Globalization and Nationalism that is playing out olitically around the world, according to the news. But here is one more possible outcome: war with China, who will fight America to retain Taiwan, according to an expert analyst on NPR. Okay, hee is MY possible outcome: Trump recognizes Taiwan, thinking he is internationally savvy, and upsets China. Meanwhile, thinking he is tough on immigration end economically savvy he will upset California and they will stop paying in and start to break away from the Union - even if it is not official secession will happen in various ways, naturally, just as post-Brexit Brittain is looking to make it's own trade deals, now, California would be making the deals, first, then leaving in more ways, as would other states. If we pick off Taiwan Trump has set us up to lose California, at least, for it since China could set up trade directly with California if we do so with Taiwan. See how it works?

Countries, Unions, fracture and ulitimately cease to exist, on this course. Is this good or bad - a good or bad way to do it, a good or bad outcome? Depends on how it happens. But it is an alternative to globalization AND nationalization  -and there are others. Look at them all like competing alien plots if that helps, and see if their is a team you like. It would be easier to write this in Sci-Fi.

The real point here is how small-mindedness is swept away by Big Ideas and Moments. I heard the leader of Republican Hindus in America talking on NPR about how some of them see Trump as a Divine Ruler, potentially, an Avatar of Rama, with all the same implications that right-wing Christians have: Trump as Rama or Jesus or whoever, but as a strong protector against foes and similar misguided ideas. Trump-Jesus is, currently, a small-minded Prosperity Gospel "Jesus" or "Jieve Us" (like "get us Butlers!" - I think I started watching Yo-Kai Watch and met his Butler, Whisper, after writing this... )

If you invoke Jesus enough you will be overwhelmed when he comes through, your small-mindedness will not survive this. When things come full circle, and you started by throwing an ill-advised punch, you smack yourself in the face. Trump just took the bait, thought he could get away with it, and now the trap has sprung. Will the powers that be impeach, impede, or assassinate him? One way to look at it is that he Has the sae Agenda Hillary had but she was going to act like she couldn't stop it, to pacify us, while he is being so obvious about it that it wakes us up to stop the show. So they won't end him if he is doing what they want and getting away with it, just with such buffoonery that he can pretend he is just stupid, like W Bush, or racist, like everybody. But if he really is fucking up all their plans by doing it so badly, being so blatant, expect them to take him out one way or another.

But it doesn't matter: whether Trump IS the system or he is its Downfall WE won't let it continue to oppress people or threaten our destruction with war or nuclear holocaust  because we are paying attention as it fails and working together. And it inevitaly fails: we don't have to lose California or cease to be a country to prove it. You can hear the failure in the way they talk about it. NPR did a piee on the attendees at the "Deploraball" inauguration party for Trump Trolls who are proud of trolling him into power, as they see it. I was disgusted by how the reporter was marvelling at everything as if she had JUST heard of trolling and was discovering what it was instead of realizing she is a troll herself, owning it, since the entire media were hill-trolls for the last two years. Since all my online activities in Bernie/Jill groups on facebook in 2016 was combatting hill-trolls, paid and unpaid, and since ALL of us Real People in these groups knew that A: the media were hill-trolls and B: Hillary gave a shout-out to her trolls in her concession speech and we read the emails about it thanks to Wikileaks and not to our media. So Hillary and the DNC knows trolling, kind of, except humor is always funniest when someone is smart and Truth is the smartest persective so lies can only be so funny - hill-trolls are not smart or perceptive enough to be very funny. The reporter called Trump the Troll-King and the self-described trolls from the Ball, who see troll as a badge of honor, might agree. If Trump is not really racist or hateul, he is just using that stance, then yes, he is a troll - but an average one, lots of idiots do that, pretend to be racist or other negativity and use that to troll.

"Racism" is itself a Troll but if you use it as a tool then YOU are the troll. If you are actually racist then you are a tool of the Troll, racism. That's how trolling "works" to suck everyone down - it's never a good idea, really, except to teach us how to do the opposite, which I call Angelfishing, by way of cautionary example.

Hillary's trolling style is deception more than provocation - but she provked up a troll army by calling folks "deplorable". An analogy for comparing hill-trolls to trump trolls is like catfishing versus pretending to like Ayn Rand. Hill-trolls basically infested Bernie/Jill groups pretending to be on our side only to distract and mislead us. But Hillary is really a Troll Queen for intentionally paying and coordinating this army, while Trump's was an organic response. Not that she has an better personal trolling "skills" than Trump  -she is even a terrible liar and that is her pantsuit, I mean, strong suit - but she did unleash the power of the entire US government and media to troll this election - she just really sucks, people hate her, and cheaters lose. And we're too smart for SOME bullshit, believe it or not. "Bernie or Bust" #BernieorBust etc. The Trump Trolls said they "shitposted their way into the White House"  - literally -and the Cult of Kek and Republican Hindus and Right-Wing Christians all have something in common about Trump  -what they fail to see is how he, they, all of this will be used to teach a lesson.

Already there is a backlash to "Trump" as other countries will elect leaders who represent the opposite of everything he stands for - and he could turn it all around, too. Of course it all comes back to Standing Rock and all I will say about the media is that the NPR reporter introduced the story, last night, 1-25-17 (Wednesday) by saying that he was unaware the "protesters" were still there - I find this hard to believe and suspect it is Robert Seigal's Orwellian attempt to normalize apathy in the audience (with his hypnotically soothing voice): "in case you forgot all about this feel normal, EVERYONE did." I assure you, "Everyone" did not forget about Standing Rock, te movement has gone global abd deepened locally and nationally and once other "protesters" become Protectors by realizing how this issue is the heart of it all we can really focus and achieve, so well that we can stop ANY more pipelines from being built, anywhere in the world, soon. Standing Rock will become the "New WHite House" or the New Capitol f America, as I've been predicting and memed - because we will do itt better there, with heart and integrity - you can't corrupt an all-volunteer force, people workig together for common, greater good. I don't believe Robert Seigal really forgot this unless he is A: higher than I am - not fucking likely  -or B: just truly does ot care. I want to challenge him to have a smoke-off with me to prove he could not possibly have been high enough to forget this  or admit he doesn't care and is unfit for journalism. I hope he will issue a correction, saying "I DID remember I just said I didn't to please the corporate interests" but if he doesn't it will come back to haunt him. I remembered hs name / voice because "iroically" (magically) he was iterviewig a director named Robert Seigal about his movie on how McDonald's became the "American Church"  - and on Tuesday I snapped a photo of a McDonald's  sign with the "Mc" burnt out so it just sai "Donald's" to make memes from it.

More Trump_jesus at the end but one more thing about the media: a girl on the BBC ran a website or organization for English-Chinese translattions or relations and she was a commentator on a news show, in studio, and worked for the BBC now, too, but she mentioned that, because she had learned Chinese, as a Brittish Citizen, the government was suspicious of her and that MI-5, the Brittish CIA, had her blacklisted from woking at the BBC for ten years just for knowing Chinese. The newscaster host, also a BBC employee, asked her if MI-5 still tells the BBC what to do like that and I think she said she did not know but she presumes so  - bu it was telling that she told the story, almost like "since it was a mistake, no big deal, right?", uncaring for what this means for the lack of diversity and perspective in the media. And it was telling that he asked and that neither of them, presumably, knew for sure or cared "too much", even though it kept her out of a job for ten years and wasn't the BBC like the only media in England for years? Reminded me of the former CIA director on the radio the other day talking about stopping a news story with a phone call to a media mogul - he still would ot say which one, years later. The government cotrols our media to control us and even uses the inteligence services to do so in extreme cases  -ad apparently beign ones, too, just in case. These simply aren't "intelligence services": the news story since my last edition was all about how the CIA is continuing the evolution, under Bush and Obama, to being more of a paramilitary force and less "intelligence gathering". The interviewee said their true purpose was to find info hostile governments don't want us to know and protect our info from them." Is this "intellience"? Sounds more like secrecy, which leads to less intelligence, to me - nevermind the paramilitary force part, even.

Why can't anyone be in the business of exposing the truth? Our media won't do it, so people use the internet to expose government officials' emails and what is really going on - collusion with the media, stealing the primaries, working for oil and war companies -in the case of Hillary - and then they blame Russia as a hostile government so the CIA has the "duty" to protect the secrets from "them" when all they did to "hurt us" with them was to tell us the truth. If our media had EVER mentioned that we had a third option, Jill Stein, BEFORE the election and recount, she could have won - we can always review the tapes and see that they never did. If you are scared of the Truth you can't win beause the truth will win in the end.

NPR estimated that there are 2 million Hindu people in America and they ostly vote Democrat but that the conservative and pro-Trump movement was growing. For right-wing Hindus and Christians and for Cult of Kek followers and other trump followers of a religious nature, the path for Trump to become some sort of Divine King  - truly, not the way they see it but really Divine - is a path that will transform him and you and them from the inside out. You CAN handle the Truth but it will undo your views. And this is good: You do't need to suffer any more from bad ideas and others do not need to suffer from corporate, government, ad individual actions that these ideas support.

Allow me to remove them from you, please. May I take your Coat?

Here is how it is done: You can use any other name, or Love, or Magic, or any ther belief system but I like to say Jesus a lot because it helps in this language. I like how Homer says it, too: Jeebus. (reminds me of Ramona Quimby's sister, Beezus.) Jesus is someone folks invoke for Trump  - apparently right-wing Hindus use Rama and internet trolls use Kek, a poorly drawn frog and whatever resurrected and concocted god-form he supplies. When you start playing with powers you get far more than you bargained for.

You can try this out with any simple, good, wish or belief. Invoking Jesus into Trump is a wonderful idea, I'm right there with you and will do it myself, too, or, I mean, get myself out of the way, too  - it's just ging to be a wonderful surprise when it happens.

We are relying on two things to stop the pipelines, as far as Trump is concerned: Trump can recognize the rights of the people, and Earth itself, and side with the Water Protectors, or he could look at the money and future and go for Green energy entirely - either of these would be good Come-to-Jesus turning points, especially the first one affirming the dignity of all peoples.

I don't know how many  people were on the lawn but I seem to keep hearing different world leaders will be the first to meet Trump face to face - it might be the Mexican president was first, then Israel's, but today they said the Brittish PM Theresa May will be first, today. The reason I bring it up is because in the audio clips of Trump's speech to Republican Hindus he says the US and India will not only have a better relationship, we will have the "best" relationship, we will be Best Friends. A snub to Israel and Brittain, our Old Friends? You said what we had was Special! (after May's comments, as I type this, when she said it a lot, this is funnier) Obama was supposedly "frosty" with Israel but he didn't stop them at all from violating interational law by building settlements in Palestine, up until the very end when the strongest thing he did was abstain from vetoing a UN security council resolution agaist them as he always vetoed it before. To me this lends credence to the idea that the same people run the US government no mater who is in charge and they allowed Obama to be fakely "anti-Israel" in the mildest inconsequential way so that there can be more of a "demand"that we return to favoritism and a blind eye to occupation and oppression - it's our oldest style, anyway, apparenly. So one of Trup's first actions is to move the American Embassy into Israel from Palestine, which I beieve has immigration / citizenship implications - another form of favoritism or religious persecution. And if we go back to overing up their crimes more completely (as opposed to "almost completely" under Obama) they can say that the people "wanted this" when they voted for Trump.

Trump has no "mandate"  - many people were "ABC": "Anybody But Clinton" and many more are opposed to him. Trump may not have meant India and the USA will be "Best Friends" but he said it -  it could cause concern for Britain and Israel and our other Besties. But I'm not here to start static at the Empire Club cafeteria. There is a wonderful potential for cozying up with India and maybe it will take Donald by surprise or maybe he planned it, or will say he did, all along. The news took the negative angle that it is putting Pakistan "on notice" or choosing sides in this uclear-charged Cold War - this is what i was afraid tulsi gabbard was doing a few months ago, too - is she Green yet, after visiting Standing Rock with the 1,500 other veterans? But I choose to see another angle: there was a story a few days ago about how India has made the world's largets solar power plant/field i te world, so far, maybe a quarter of a million panels or more? I assume India, with five times our population and rapidly growing energy needs with more wealth and modernization will be leading the Green Energy revolution hecause they need to, they feel the necessity of it more. Just as China produes super-cheap solar panels and is forced to go green to clean their polluted air. If our new best friend, India, is a pioneer of green energy we won't be selling the oil we will be buying their Green technology or competing with them to make it.

Green energy will take over, naturally - and the key is weed legalization. Solar, wind, and hydroelectic can already replace our energy demands if we just sue them but we can swith coal and other plants to burn industrial Hemp much more efficiently and environmentally than corn or whatever else they use, and use those plants to feed people and animals less expensively instead. It's a change to an abundance mindset, is all, and weed makes this happen naturally.

Better power just overpowers old, evil powers, it's natural magic on a gloabl scale, but the same principle applies to idividuals, too. Magically, ironically the key word is "Trump." A trump card beats other cards, wins the hand, ad a higher trump wins over that. If Trump has a change of heart -  or has a heart - if he pulls a Grinch or Scrooge Move, then he will become a Higher Trump, overpowering and replacing what he was before and we can forgive the hateful things he said if he does not enact the policies  - in this way he could become the great ruler that all the positivity would like to support. But with rders t speed up pipelines, build walls, and his "America First" dctrine, he looks like he isgoing the wrog way and will not rn around on his own without  apersonal transformation - meaning he wasn't just faking it to get elected, or trolling - and will have to be turned around by the response of the people and around the world. (At the time I wrote this, Thurs, he had not ordered the blockage of refugees. He did on Friday and it caused scenes at airports  - protests, here  -and around the world, then the news today is that a fedral judge is blocking the order as unconstitutional after people sued o behalf of some Iraqis who were translators for the Army - which is being touted as the "system working" to stop Trup but I'm curious... late Saturday night, SUnday Morning at 5:38 AM as I try to finish typing this.)

This is how i will become obvious that these ideas he represents just wo't work and weren't good o begin with. I had great hope in this when I heard a report a week ago about Trump's spiritual upbringing and realized how easily a higer power will overcome or trump his beliefs. Trump was raised in a church pastored by Norman Peele, one of the advocates for Positive Thinking who wrote the 1952 best-selling book "The Power of Positive Thinking" It's the same basic magic as The Secret and Positivity and Visualization certainly work, magically. Peele married this basic magic system with ideas from the Bible and is like a founding father of the Propserity Gospel tradition inherited by Creflo Dollar and other televangelists. The basic beliefs f Propserity Gospel go against Jesus' message but the "magic" of it can work - positivity works but Prosperity Gospel is more about material success and the key to that in this system is connections so it "works" in that way because it helps maintain the material-based and imbalanced system. The System certainly works to protect and enrich the powerful,that's not magic it is just injustice, Adding religion to the system, since Propserity Gospel is based on the idea that some people are Chosen to be rich therefore others are supposed to be poor, merely seeks to justify having it rigged that way. And it makes sense they would have to appeal to a higher power to Justify Injustice - there is no excuse on earth for it. It's just a bad higher power they are supplicating. As Jay-G told Mr. Burns "the Lord picks a select fewto accumulate more money than anyone else - you and I bear that sacred avarice." This is actually unholy, not holy, but the system does help those who help themselves, promoting self-iterest above all,  and allows people to funnel resources to "their own people" which promotes racism and sexism and everything.

This philosophy is summed up in "America First" or "Me first" of sefishness and greed. It works in this system rigged to keep the rich rich and the poor poor but it is evil and why the system is evil. Jesus sad the last shall be first and the first last, and he focused on the poor. This is the best example, to take care of everyone. By contrast NPR had the story about the new fad amongs CEOs and other bigwigs in Silicon Valley and Wall St. circles to get into high-end survivalism. They are anticipating he fall of society due to civil unrest, revolutions, economic collapse, war, or natural catastrophe. The counter-argument to this trend is to say why not invest in society and improvements now to avoid any of these and improve the governments response and accountability? And the same argument applies to folks who aren't considering a million-dollar condo in a converted abandoned missile silo. We can do good things for everyoe instead of merely protecting ourselves against fear - especially when the Pwers-That-Be create those fears to control us.

We can resist the idea of "Me First" or even "My Country First" if we realize there is plenty to go around and merely thinking "the other way," unselfishly, makes it start to happen. Then it spreads naturally, and more when it catches on to influential people and nations (see Istanbul note at the end  Sun afternoon edit) And it just works better - the best example from NPR was the robin Hood Restaurant in Madrid. They sell high end breakfast and lunch to rich people in order to serve the homeless at night for free with the ame great quality food and atmosphere. They said it was the most sought-after reservation in Europe, booked solid until April, and that the owner was bringing in a famous chef every week. This is just one exaple but the message will apply to all business and industries - in the future the successful companies will be the ones that show support nad respect for the whole community. The Goodwill Marketting of the last decde is a sign of this trend but soon it will be real, not just a posture.

The problem with trying to hide and proect evil is that it doesn't work.The good thing about Trump is he is exposing what is wrong with everything, trying out all of these bad ideas so we can learn, together, what exactly is wrong about them and how to unite to go other directions. Trump ut a gag order on the EPA, and you can try to hide evidence and silence people, a last ditch (and pipeline) effort to save the oil companies from the public disgust with them that will turn into dismantling and replacing them, soon. They are merely buying a little more time but the smart ones will cash in before it collapses, like Rex Tillerson just did  - not that he's smart, just tipped off. Everyone knows the planet is warming and we are to blame, everyone can feel if for themselves, along with incredibly extreme weather, as the scientists have predicted for over 40 years. "Silencing" them, supposedly, only makes people more interested in what they would be saying - did they learn nothing from "Russian Hacked" stories from the DNC emails making more impact than their state-run media had? This also tests is hackers are really pro-Trump or if they will also release the information he is now trying to suppress - but the point is they can't "control" it, the truth comes out. When the information does come out it not only stops their agenda of enforced ignorance it proves they have been lying about who is responsible and why.

Systems built on secrecy and oppression are doomed to fail. We just have to keep aware and expose them and Trump actually makes this easier. The Truth will be plenty enough resistance to defeat them, we just have to promote it. They defeat themselves as well: the only people who are fervently anti-immigrant are in politics or whipped into a frenzy by the media, plus a smallish minority of die-hard racists. Most of the country supports more open immigration and even more will once they understand what is at stake. Even a large number of Republicans, the agricultural sector, rely on immigrant labor and will oppose greater restrictions. More importantly people, cities, and states will join together to successfully oppose fear-motivated oppression of minority communities. It won't work the way trump says it will because he won't have the support. (Since I wrote this, maybe Friday, the news came out Saturday that a Federal Judge has blocked Trump's immigrant Ban, and today on Sunday the news is that some places they are following the judges order, some places are following the President, and Trump is saying everyone is doing what he says an it's working fine while there are large protests at the airports and capitol.) Hopefully we will turn to a policy of helping all nations, not with wa but with good things, so people can be happy everywhere and go anywhere.

The real "battle' remains at Standing Rock, th battle for Water, the environment, people's rights and treaties, and the battle for awareness and for control of media perception. The World, People, stand with Standing Rock against evil. Pipelines threaten trucker jobs and are more disastrous so the truckers and others will oppose them, too. Trump wants to force the oil companies to use American made pipes and and the competing greed between these two industries could queer the deal. But most importantly the people gathered at Standing Rock and supporting online and around the world will not let it happen. If our government proves to be illigitimate, after all, by refusing t represent the true interests of the people ad planet then the volunteer gvernment in Standing Rock will become the de facto government - we won't need to take over Washington or the military just stop listening to them anymore and listen to our true Heart, the Volunteer Government. We can ignre the bluster of washington and the media and their power will die out. The Standing Rock camp is organizing with hundreds and thousands of veterans who have joined the cause and their networking has spread the news among that commuity despite the continued blackout of Water Protectors. We can show that by working together in goodwill we can take better care of ourselves and the country than the corrupt government has done. All we need to do is get out of out own way. I'm remembering the "Red Power" documentary on PBS about how different the various Nations in America, the "Indian Country" on which 40% of the nations fossil fuels lie, have responded to pressure from the powerful oil and gas companies. Some have managed to take ownership, some have managed to keep a strong focus on renewables. A Lakota leader, I forget his name, had the approach of training more and more people to instal solar panels and has a growing grassroots network taking over and replacing the power companies from the bottom up. The fact that people have been forced to be this resurceful gives us the skills to teach others and make the same kind of program natioally, globally, once we come together and network. The threats from Trump are accelerating that networking so they shoot themselves in the feet.

All we have to do is get out of our own way, stop fighting with ourselve and etween ouselves and let progess happen with the highest hopes. All the goverment needs to do, or Trump, is get out of the business of protecting evil corporations and let progress - peace, green energy, and free speech - happen. This will ultimately clean up our election process, too, and really fix everything. Every issue will improve when we can just clear the obstacles and work together with the promise of the internet and robotics and other modern tech.  And all these improvements are a symbol of a greater, higher, spiritual improvement we are all undertaking around the world.

This is why I took so much hope in the discovery that Trump was into Prosperity Gospel  -it's weak magic. It claims to be positive and has some good aspects that ork but it's based on a mistake that "God" preers some people to others and wants selective success. This bad idea leads to many other ones including racism and it's the foundation of oppressive systems. At least we all see that openly under Trump. The hope is that since you've invoked Goodness, ven in misunderstanding, and accessed magical thinking, Better Goodness will overpower the system. Ithappens naturally and more as we believe it. Ultimately if you claim to be good you will be held accountable to be good and do the best things - and if you're True you'll be given the power to do it. You won't be able to make those pipelines or any more pipelines because thy aren't good, fossil fuels aren't good for us or the planet and everyone knows. We just didn't know how to stop it, but we're figuring it out on our own since you won't help us. Youcan't stop the transition or delay much longer, might as well switch to the winning team, the truth, sooner than later. The power is ultimately with us - if you only fake representing us we will ake you do it for realor else replace you.

The abundance of solar, wind, hydroelectric and biomass power is an analogy for how much power we have between us and all around us if we just get right with the planet. We all know we need to do this now and no amount of tricks or lies can stop us.

When I ask"Whose America First?" I mean who are you do you represent All America or only certain people and companies. I'm also questioning the whole order of Prosperity Gospel  -why is "prosperity" first? It contradicts the Gospel of Jesus to put personal welfare over the poor. Qualifying the "Gospel" by using it to justify hoarding personal wealth is not Gospel at all but a lie. The real Gospel will result in prosperity for all, or Gospel Prosperity - Prosperity Gospel is backwards. As I write this I am watching Yo-Kai Watch. I struggle with Babblon, obviously. Now it's Baku who puts everyone to sleep to eat their dreams and in their dreams they are all tall or self-inflated according to their ambition - the most ambitious are tallest. This reminds me of Trump having an over-inflated ego and how we can all see the downfall of this. His demand for Mexico to build a wall has backfired on him - he moved to saying he would charge a 20% tax on imports if they don't agree to pay for it (this must have been Thursday that  wrote this because by Friday Mexico was opposing it stongly and pointing out this was really getting the American consumer to pay for it - since then the two presidents have talked on the phone and agreed to not speak openly about it anymore) and iternal pressure has cause the Mexican president to cancel a meeting next week with Trump. The ex-president, Fox, is making the news saying Trump's actions are a declaration of war and the current president, Peneneta, (sp?) says it is an insult to Mexican dignity and sovereignty. This shows how Trump's "Tough Guy" philosophy is trouble, not help. Making friends works and making enemies doesn't. The latest response - Friday morning now - from the Mexican President was to cancel the meeting with Trump next week and he says Trup's plan for a 20% tax on imports from Mexico would make American consumers pay for the wall (see,there it is) Lindsay Graham said anything that makes tequila and margaritas ore expensive is a bad idea, a statement that is stupid and racist how he said it but also true. The Canadian Prime minister "found something else to do" according to a NPR commentator, to avoid meeting Trump and he said Teresa May, new PM of Britain, "won the race no one wanted to be in" to meet him firt. Her xenophobic philsophy mathces with Trump's (though since she said she disagreed with his refugee ban) but there is tension over his comments about NATO. There is tension with the Army over his comments about torture" NPR also interviewd a general who said everyone in the army is proud to have finally and completely outlawed torture and that it was scary for everyone when they were torturing people. Trump says it works but other approaches work better, especially since "killing everyone" is never a good solution, and tortureand other violence always beed more resistance in more people, spreading the evil further. In Colombia the news is that the government and UN have set up camps to help integrate ex  -FARC rebels since they ended the 50-year civil war there last year. They estimate 7,000 rebels will turn in their weapons and become civilians. One fear is that some of them could form criminal gangs so the first step is to provide education and job training. What if we used those techniques to stop and stem gang violence in America? We know the best solutions are to stop bad things before they happen not respond to them afterwards. But instead Trump took the opposite approach, threatening to send in the feds to crack down on Chicago gang violence. You can't kill people into not killing each other. There is a better way.

The only nice thing about Trump's power-tripping executive orders is that resistance to these ideas is organizing and gaining power and the media actually reports on the protests. And the overall effect that it shows more people more about how wrong the ideas are in the first place. If the media had reported onHillary stealing the primaries and caucuses from Bernie we wouldn't be in this mess. We wold have President Sanders, now. I and other called the local Nevada news stations to beg them to cover the theft of the Nevada caucus, or fraucus, as it was happening, all that day - they all said they didn't have any reporters available on the weekend. In Las vegas. They were nice about it on the phone but they were lying. It's nice that the media reports on anti-Trump protests but it is the same media that blacked out Jill Stein and Bernie supporters' protests at the DNC, the same media that ignores the Water Protectors at Standing Rock, the same media that still claims that Russia "hacked the election" when whoever it was did NOT hack the election - except maybe Hillary did - they hacked the DNC and DCCC.  Saying it is Russia is the ground to call in the CIA to protect us from knowing about ourselves. What if Trump uncovers that ISIS is a CIA plot  - will he wipe them all from the face of te Earth, the CIA? This is the trouble with lies, or bad, narrow-minded beliefs like "Me First." "Me First" is fine if it is about addressing problems - let me see and fix the beam in my own eye before criticizing the speck in my brother's, as Jesus advised.

This is why Jesus says "the last shall be first" - our focus should always be on protecting and helping the needy. As the mayor of LA said in an interview with NPR this morning when asked whether his city will join San Francisco and New York in opposing the anti-sanctuary orders: "I'm not worried about the most powerful people in the country I'm focused on protecting the most vulnerable." This is the real purpose of government.

For Resposibility and Duty, "Me First" works - be the one who takes up a cause or helps others, be the one who puts others needs first and gives of youself for others  - this is Gospel Prosperity, the plan Jesus has. For "getting things" the best "Me First" is actually the polite "You First" - recognizing we are all truly one and we prosper together. Take this principle globally and America First can be good ONLY if it means America will be first to set the best examples, to stand up for truth and goodness AND will also be the first to invite everyone else in. It's like "I, America, have opened the door to Peace and Green Energy - but you first, I'll hold the door open for you and make sure everyone gets in okay then join you." To make this drem real please join and share the Peacepipe Party. As I wrote that about holding the door my dogs reminded me to let them in y barking. It reminded me of a quote - Martin luther King ? - that "riots are the voice of the oppressed" and I'm not comparing the oppressed to dogs ina  bad way at al, just to say things "fareup" because there are problems - and jesus called the Syrian woman a "dog" and did not mean it nicely, as I do, then she outwitted him and he taught her because even so-called saviors need correction sometimes, cough cough, Trump, ahem. There is a real Jesus-play here whether we call it that or not and the Truth, Love, always wins in the end, even in strange ways (I typed "end" as Boys II Men sing the word "end" the first time in "end of the road" while I type this, at the close of hte Miss Universe Pageant on TV) like proving to millions of people at once that something is a bad idea and snapping us out of zombie-mode. Some people have invoked Jesus into this situation, or Rama, and the response is everyone is invoking more Love, and Justice, to counter the wrong ideas about Jesus   like the lie that some people are preferredover others  and bring out the truth of Love. Once the real Jesus gets into the situation we find amazing and miraculous ways out of it. That is what Love and Truth do, defeat evil. The beauty of Trump is that like Bush he has distilled the evil into a focal point - I thought we learned out lesson from Bush but I guess we bought off with Obama promises - Obamises -  and slaked off ourvigilance and failed to see hat we were up against. So this time it will be ovious - and wild, apparently. I keep trying to conclude this and the Trump team keeps stepping further in it, kees struggling in the quicksand. Just this morning, ater th response from Mexico that Trump is offending their soverignty and dignity, Kelly Ann Conway had the stupidity to try to troll America back int a "pro-wall" mood by saying "Drugs are pouring over the border."

Previously they stressed it was about jobs and crimes but the discussion makes people realize that santuary cities have lower crime rates and unemployment and they try to blame "drugs" to get people more emotional and think less  -trolling. Well, real talk, waht IS our drug problem, now? It's Herin, superpure and cheap ever since America annexed the producton country, Afghanistan. It's meth which is so awful and nasty it makes crack seem relatively safe and spiritual by comparison - of course Weed is where it's at, truly, and for more magic, psychadelics, NOT any opiates, speed, or alcohol, really -no drugs just natural medicine. But beyond any of these the Real Problem is that Pharmacuetical opiates are WORSE than the heroin or meth or crak epidemics, as bad as they are. The problem is Big Pharma  -the problem is YOU, government, for protecting them, and you can't pin this on Mexico or anyone else. We can ALL see where the trouble really is originating - the labels are very detailed. To use a mish-mash of campaign slogans let's let the greater good make America even greater than only standing stronger together with "ourkind." Everyone, hmanity, nature, we are all of the same kind, all one big family and it is ime to heal the rifts.

I support Trump as a human, a spirit, and a leader who has the potential to transform himself and the world  - and as a lesson to me to do the same. I and millions of others can clearly see where Trump is wrong on so many issues, from his own ego to global policy. But can we see asclearly our own flaws, the ways we are also destructively committed to certain courses due to pride?

We use Trump as a tool: in society, the world, we use him by knowing he will say something stupid, put forth destructive policy,and knowing that will unite people, us, to oppose it. We know we will win, we jave truth on our side, an in this way, case by case, point by point, we can prove what is wrong with all of these ideas, to everyone. I thought we had this lesson with the Bushes and Iraq-Afghanistan wars but apparently we need it spelled out for us, with us, every singl day, now. Shia Lebuef is live-stremaing his protest of Trump for the next 4 years - it may be shorter and more concise than this. Everything they do will only arouse more awareness and sense of injustice in people, more awareness of media bias, so we can ppose the bad ideas and set a whole new course away from tis evil system. It's builton oppressing us so all we have to do to end it is leave it, ignore it, and it will collapse like a bad illusion.

Trump represents the biggest backfire in "Empire" on earh and it's basically game over. Trump can switch sides, truly be for the people and come true, come through, Jesus, and that wod be a funway to do it and remind us not to judge AYONE - but the real point of this is to do it for the Trump within yourself, for your own ego becau he is kind of the personification of the archetype of Ego - just like i'm te True Narcissus - how you seen how long and beautiful this stem is? Wait for the bloom - it's you!

That's the real Secret orkey here: yes we use Trump as a toolto fix the whole world, like a problem-spotter or stud finder. He beeps or tweets or barks or whines and we know there is the problem. He gives us the bad solution, like multiple-choice where you KNOW one answer is wrong an can rule it out  -and we, the World, find a better alternative o do instead. This is a system that works for the globe. But it's fractal reality, fairy magic, and the same technique works like a key within you and your own spehre of influence, too. Trump is the Ego, but so are "you", in a way  -we all hide behind ego, hide the True Us (Love, hint hint) back there. As easy as it is to see what is wrong with him, his ideas, approach, or perspective, we fail to see how we are acting, in some way, worse in our own lives. In fact, it is beacuse we feel some shame or fear and can't face a feeling of "fault" in ourselves that we ever look to see what is wrong with someone else. Like Marge Simpson at the marriage retreat, if we list all his flaws we will be here all night (again). The cure is introspection: when we catch ourselves condemning the most obviously destructive ideas -  and we should keep doing this because some people will refuse to get it until we raise awareness -we should ALSO wonder how we "do the same thing"   -maybe in a cmpletely different ways  - and are so quick to judge another. This is the real meaning of "Judge not lest you be judged" I just decided - not "karma" or "revenge", not another judge coming for payback or afterlife punishment, but simply when you do see a wrong in others also look for the permutation of it within yourself: you've encountered this "problem person" for a reason so we can learn a lesson from each other in the interation. We've attracted a "Problem President" for the same reason: we have issues and we are not facing them so now we are throwing them in our faces so we HAVE to deal with them. We really can end racism and hatred and oppression in this process. The process is to do in yourself what is hard to see inside but easy to see in the world  -transform or outplay your own inner Trup, your ego, with the lessons in the world around you and know that this will improve your life and also that it will cure the world, magically.

This is fractal-holographic magic, the nature of the universe.

It works. You go within to fix the outside. As we do this it works, we believe it more and it works more. Trump does it too and will do it more and more -  that is how we transform him, the country, and the world from the inside, out.

(between the time of writing and typing this, now Mon afternoon and I just woke up so I don't know today's news, Trump's refugee and travel ban has undergone changes and caused changes: it has been shortened from 120 days to 90 days, they mostly gave up their fight to block Green Card holders, a Federal judge ruled against it completely and a variety of interpretatons are being followed at different airports, causing confusion and chaos and lots of protest and media attention, and Deocrats and high-ranking Republican politicians are speaking out strongly against it and saying it plays into the hands of radical "Islamic" terrorists. And more companies including really big ones are taking stances against it and people are organizing boycotts of Trump brands and anyone who carries them. It's coming around, just like I said. And people are finding oe of their most important powers, "buying" - they said women, who have been especially offended by Trump, make up 85% of America's consumer purchasing power, controlling like 7 or 9 billion dollars each year. Probably the reason this fact was not more well-known before is they are scared to death of a women-led boycott, but now the media is helping promote it. The corporate-consumer response shows the "Real" , practical reason why Trump's evil plans won't succeed - and they are an analogy and model for how we do it magically, spiritually, in the world of ideas, too - we galvanize around the better ideas and defeat the bad)

We start inside ourselves. Just try it, watch it work and work it better. When we are shocked by Trump's ego or callousness or narrow-mindedness or anything, look for that in yourself too and address it, root it out and transform, and the transformation spreads.

The True Reality (or Good Dream) is that we are all an interconnected web of Love. What keeps us from realizing and experiencing this is a fabricated, false reality, the "Real World" (or nightmare) we seem stuck in, like we can't wake up or switch to the Good dreaming. But even this net of false bullshit actually connects us all, too. We can ride the connections of either system, positive or negative, love or fear, but we are all ultimately the same, together, united.

The second system, the negative web, is like an alarm system, to check ourselves, like a spider is alerted when a fly hits and knows immediately where the "issue" is in the web. Our world, now, is All Alarms. But once we put out the fires, no matter "who started them" (WAS it Billy Joel? Did he ever provide an alibi? A catchy cover-up...) we will have less alarms dividing and distracting us, too.

The manipulators think they can provoke certain responses with their various controlling actions and systems but while we do respond predictably we also come up with new solutions in crisis that end up solving more than the manipulators ever planned on letting us solve.

It's time we solved the problems instead of fighting about them. Fighting plays into the hands of the manipulators, fighting is "Their Game." To stop fighting we merely need to take our lessons to heart and see each other as ourselves.

The Gospel - love - makes Properity for ALL - no need to qualify it or put it second to your own whims, your personal prosperity - that is wrong and backwards. It's evil in this context when a messenger of Love has told us not to do that. As long as we are looking out for each other  - not in fear but in hope and welcome, we will all get better. And now we're all in this journey together -we always were but now we can't aoid realizing it anymore, now the issues are everywhere  -though it's still taking the populace a while to realize Standing Rock is the Heart of it All. We are all very obviously on this quest to learn and look out for everyone, not "Number One." (no Golden Shower joe intended, I'm sure they are awesome for folks who like them.)

Here is an example of using Trump to fix the world by fixing myself. I can have bad boundaries and don't mae many friends like it makes a wall around me and isolates me -  like Jill on Father Knows Best last night, magically (Sun night, or 5 AM this morning.) I was thinking about that today after writing this and was reminded Trup is famous for wanting to build a wall but also for having bad personal boundaries. It's ironic, magical, that he is trying to build a wall outside to make up for feeling vulnerable, personally, to hide that behind bluster and bravado. It's on a different scale or dimension but the lesson fro Trump and for me is the same: we want to make outer walls to avoid resolving inner conflicts, problems we actually cause ourselves  - me by talking too much or too intensely, him by having too much money and greed for power.

All Trump's drastic actions have produced profound responses. Most refugee aid organizations are faith-based groups and they are all denouncing Trump's anti-refugee policies. The only exception that NPR mentioned to contradict this trend was Billy Graham's son who says "refugees are not a Bible issue"(an example of how fake christians are made since his dad was like "America's Favorite preacher" according to many presidents and maybe some official designation, one whose ideas are adaptable for empire, obviously)  but "everyone else" seems to agree that treatment of refugees is central to the message of Judeo-Christian-Muslim beliefs.  The consensus of religious an kind-hearted people everywhere is to help refugees - it is only fearful notions of racism and xenophobia an Islamophobia that oppose these values. People were especially offended that he made this order on Holocaust awareness day since it is completey counter to the message and reminds of us one of America's shames is denyingrefugees from the holocaust, which I didn't even know about until they said it on NPR. As awful as that was, as awful as it is to repeat the evil, now, one good that comes out of it is raising awareness and reminders of how we all se these as mistakes in history so we should learn from them. People were really supportive of W Bush while he was president, hal thre country was very enthusiastic an the other half hated him, but the enthusiastic half changed their minds when truths about his wars came out - we should have learned a lesson but since we didn't we will struggle through more experiences.

There was talk on NPR about nuclear weapon concerns under Trump and hs comments made them move the Doomsday Cock up thirty seconds, to 2.5 minutes until midnight. One good things about fears of Trump is that it exposes how dangerous the whole system is. Mabe Trump is still playing a role and all this loose cannon talk and policies are all to ultimately strike a bargain to reduce nuclear weapons in America and Russia - at least the commentators on NPR were echoing what I've said for years, but to an audience of millions: the only way to disarm the world of nuclear weapons is to lead by example and the largest stockpiles, ours, must be reduced first - we must lead the effort by example, not by pressuring other countries to end their ambitions. The more we all talk about this the more awareness wll be raised until we can finally end the nuclear threat everywhere. Becase it is really scary now that they are talking about it to hear the experts who study this reveal how many near-misses we've already had, nukes falling off planes into the oceans and over countries, times we narrowly avoided nuclear war in the 80's and 90's. Maybe Trump is still playing a role-  for all the trouble and concern it causes maybe the wall-talk and travel ban is keeping campaign promises to show everyone how they don't work -this is probably giving Trump way too muh crdit but that same credit or plan could be ascribed to is "Guiding Spirit" if you want to see things that way. I prefer to see us as intertwined.

The point is that if we end the nuclear threat the plan to do so will be worth it, even if it is full of strife - if we end war altogether, especially, and these drastic actions are causing a collapse of the whole system, you can see it beginning. I want Trump to not be angry, egotistical, or nuke someone on a whim and I will focus on applying that principle to keep myself in check and calm when I feel proe to anger.

The news keeps echoing the principles I'm writing about, here, and an NPR program today (Saturday?) was all about Sychronicity, coincidence. If I delay finishing this any longer there will be more to say, so much is happening so quickly. Today the development is chaos and protests at ariports and cities following the refugee ban, trying to free people who have been detained, and lost of media coverage so the badness of Trump's ideas are playing out for all to see - and oppose. Also he spoke with the Prime Minister of Japan and there were some details about that conversation and he spoke for an hour on the phone with Putin and there were no details. (Later that night they released a statement that they had a good talk mostly about fighting terrorism.) I can presume or wish for things based on this detail - they tell you what Trump and Abe talked about and that he invited him to the White House but they don't talk about Putin. My hope is that the outcome will be the end of Nukes and war. The other New Syria News from last night and today is more concerns about the water supply in Damscus and also the possibility that Assad had a stroke and has gone insane, or more insane so he is non-functional, since all these power-hungry fools are crazy in a bad way (Love is the good way to be crazy.)

Happy New Year, Chinese New Year and Lunar New Year!  May the year of the Fire Rooster bring happiness and prosperity and blazing wake-up calls for us all! I heard a Chinese American reporter talking about keeping the Chinese New Year tradition in America and mentioned how it is hard since it is not "part" of American culture - though it really is she is recognizing the homoginzation forces in this country. A bank teller who was chinese really smiled and appreciated it when I wished her a Happy New Year today, even though she had to work, and it made me think that while I was assuming she was Chinese this was not a bad kind of stereotyping or assumption because it was an attempt to show respect and consideration, and was appreciated

I've been wathing YoKai Watch, it's awesome, and the Dazzabel episode Nate's mom says "Do I look like Lady Gaga?" when she gets enspirited. The Falcons will beat the Patriots in the Superbowl, a sign of the Great Spirit triumphing over Nationalism. I hope Gaga has a Truly Transcendent halftime show. Yo-Kai is a great show - I like to identify and think about the Yo-Kai I struggle with and/or manifest. It gives me new approaches and lessons. I hope Trump, in setting himself up for many defeats so he learns how to graciously lose in order to succeed at things that REALLy matter - a lesson to us all - give up your ego, sacrificec of yourself, for others.


PS: Now it is Monday afternoon and more news has already proven these prophecies are coming true. First I want to mention that the themes being discussed prompted th inclusion on the BBC of a commentator who had written a book about Istanbul. In this context she pointed out that Istanbul has been a sanctuary city for 2,000 years and that helps it to be a major player and hub in the culture and history of the world. Also there was a story about the Aboriginal Embassy in Australia in 1972 when they set up a protest cam outside the capitol and got long-needed reforms - a predecessor of Standing Rock.

But there are more events in the news, too, and just as I predicted they prove how bad Trump's policies are. First there is the corporate an now Pentagon response to the travel ban. Many huge corporations have expressed their methods to oppose the ban, hiring refugees and making strong statements. The Pentagon is making a list of Iraqis who helped the US military to except them from the ban. The problem is that these people aren't being Principled, they are mitigating a terrible policy and it will cause more problems. Really, a list of Iraqis who helped America, at this time when the "relationship" has fallen apart? In this age of hacking when enemies can steal that list? Bad idea. And Starbucks CEO tried to make good news" by saying he will hire 10,000 refugees worldwide - but then had to fuck it up by saying, in the details, that he would hire the refugees who helped the American Military  -which only turns your coffeeshops into targets for terrorists who want revenge. Another bad idea.

A good idea would be to rescind the ban entirely, or hire ANY refugee. But there will be many good ideas to stop the bad ones. It will be VERY obvious that these ideas  are bad and won't work.

The most signifigant news, today, was that the Iraqi President, who apparently fought hard to get permission to allow American Troops and Advisors into Iraq again  -and we now claim to have 7,000 there (irnoically similar to the number of FARC rebels...) and is a "good friend" to America, or Puppet - he is caving to internal pressure to ban Americans from Iraq.

I won't go into all the details but the result of this action, all one bad idea by Trump - added to is bad idea when he said we should take Iraq's oil - is that everything the American Empire was trying to do in Iraq for the last 40-50 years or more will be for nothing. Rumsfeld and Bush Sr. sold Saddam Hussein chemical weapons just to fight Iran and Iran has taken greater influence ever since the power vaccuum left by Bush Jr's wars - now wih Trumps Trump-mistake we are basically giving Iraq to Iran, which is fane - we get the results of our bad decisions. They could expel all Americas and the break-up will be complete or inevitable. But it was a bad idea to begin with  -so  was creating the Mujahadeen and Taliban to fight the Russians in Afghanistan in the 80s  =bad ideas bear bad fruit.

Maybe THIS time we will learn that and stop acting on bad ideas.

Three more relevant news stories happened since I wrote this, before i could type it all. There was a terrorist attack on a mosque in Canada and PM Tredeau called it a terrorist attack on muslims from the start. This is terrible but also "magically" proves the lie of the idea that "radical islamists" are the ones responsible for all the terror  -there are MANY forms terrorism of Muslims by other religions, especially in Burma / myanmar, now. It was magical that Miss Myanmar won the Native Costume competition at Miss Universe and had a Curtained View behind her, and was a Marrionette Puppet  - all the Western Powers are saying, this is how the media repeats it, that we can ignore the genocide, mass rape, and oppression of Rohinje people in Burma because of An Yan Su Chi 's progress towards more democracy. This is complete Bullshit and shows how Evil we are in the name of Democracy. A prominent Human Rights Lawyer, a Burmese muslim, was just assassinated there yesterday and he was an advisor to Su Chi on how to reform the military  -the point is, even though Su Chi is blocking reporters from seeing the area and Western Powers are supporting her in this genocide and censorship, the truth WILL come out and they won't get away with it.

The last story that really caught my attention and reminded me what this is "all about" is police corruption in the Phillipines - where Miss Universe was held, too. The president has been 100% behind the police, denying all th corruption there, untl this week. A South Korean businessman was killed in the national police complex and I guess he was powerful because they aren't getting away with this one. The key point is that the President has now said he will suspend the war on drugs until they can end police corruption. Think about what this means, relative to America and Mexico  - because Mexico was NOT dangerously run by drug cartels until the Clinton and Bush administrations forced them into an aggressive "War on drugs"....

Chelsea Manning / Global Warming "Debate": Are You Smarter Than The C.I.A.? Intelligence Report: gagablog #134

I will put off the Fairies of Jane Eyre for one more edition after the news this morning, an NPR interview with a former C.I.A. director and a story about failing to replicate key scientific studies.

I'm a highly intelligent being. I happen to be smarter than the C.I.A. and science, too. Plus I can channel even higher intelligences. "Smarter than science?" Yes. I know things that make science as we understand it obsolete, just as science discoveries make previous science obsolete. Magic will always elude science and some ideas are better than some whole systems of thought.

I used to hashtag "CTR" and "NSA" all the time on facebook, I should go back on there and see what's happening in social media, I haven't been on in 2017 yet, much - maybe a post.

I watched Captain America Civil War yesterday and it was cool, very much why vengeance is a Bad Idea, cuz there is always Some One Else behind it. And I watched Superman Returns which just sucked but Parker Posey was hot, as I hoped, and that was really all I hoped for, well, and Superman but you take what you can get. Parker Posey was cute, Spidey was pretty awesome in Civil War, Aunt Em is Marisa Tomei? Wow. "Have you ever been in a fight? There's not usually this much talking" someone said to Spider-Man  -classic. Oh, and Tony Stank, ha ha, good one, Stan The Man.

Oh, right, I was gonna Defund The C.I.A. No, wait, that was a meme I didn't make yet. This will just take you down. It's funny what scares people. Some people are scared of being Found Out. Others are scared of the Truth. Some of Us are Fearless. Some of us are Sleepless, King Crimson, but I had like 6 hours last night.

Are you ready for this? How do you take down an intelligence Service? If they try to protect themselves, but that is falling into a trap - if they try to stop this Spell, for instance - how do you get out of it?

Remember at the end of Indiana Jones 4 where they show that Needing to Know can be your downfall? Maybe we should all just pretend this doesn't exist.

There is an idea out there, now, from the media - oh, wait, I forgot my introduction:

I also have the power of Zeta Sage, my favorite All-Sativa strain from my favorite store, LivWell. The thing about saying that is people think Power is different than what it is.

What if we defunded the C.I.A. and F.B.I. and all those spies were out of a job and out on the street - who knows what street? That's mean, huh? Okay, so we won't do it. Will we talk you out of it? If we get too good at that, wouldn't we end the Military, too? Are you sure you want to give us that practice? Maybe defunding would be kinder?

Are you afraid the KGB will replace you? What if we finish them, too?

Can you be threatened by yourself? Like, do you have a conscience?

That song I couldn't remember the lyrics to, yesterday, is called "The Blue Fairy" and Jiminy Cricket wrote it. Do you have ANY idea what you are dealing with?

I thought not. It's okay, I will make it easy on you. Quit your Job. Is something bad going to happen to the Intelligence Services in America? Higher Intelligence is coming out that will make them obsolete and embarrassing, is all. Okay, enough joking and mysticism, what is this all about?

I'm from the Future, so I know the Intelligence Services are soon to be disbanded. From within, or whatever, it's nothing to be afraid of - this is not a threat, ha ha. The Harder You Come, the Harder You Fall. You can ignore this but it will work, anyway. If you read it you can help it happen. Well, you Will Help it Happen if you read it. Or you can stop reading it now.

Intelligence has been used as a tool for control. The Truth will set you Free.

If an intelligence service is opposed to the truth it's not really all that intelligent. There are Higher Intelligence services at work and their work will supercede the shoddy stuff, soon. I'm watching Oceans 12 as I edit this  - I added this paragraph  -and they are now at the collaboration between "enemies" side. Does anyone beleive in 2 sides of things? What are they, what is between us? There is a Intelligence Service that is onnected with the Truth and we are all part of it  - we havene't realized it yet but thanks to the internet we are about to, and then we will use it for it's true purpose. And lie-based systems will fail.

You can set your mind aside. It comes back. But what you are when you don't have that Mind anymore is something special. Wait, you will see the whole country like this, Mindless in a Beautiful way - no one minding the store, no one at the Helm.

It's not scary - what is scary is how much effort the mind makes to convince us we can't live without it. We can just put it aside. We won't miss anything. Remember the FBI investigation of Clinton? Didn't miss a thing.

Okay, here's how this works:

They put a Trump Advisor Ex-CIA director on the Radio today, talking about Chelsea Manning. They don't realize by now that everyone who is listening is listening Through what they play, not To what they play. They are silly, we are FAR more intelligent than they  -and he directed the C.I.A.

It's a low bar to beat, the intelligence of Spies. Look, you're all exposed, wow. That wasn't so bad, now was it? The problem is we Hear Through You, We Speak Through You, All Your Bases Are Belong To Us.

The Man said Chelsea Manning served a light sentence, only 7 years, Obama Years, when she got 35, and then he made the mistake of saying that "friendly spies" from "friendly countries" who cause no damage to America, are just caught for spying, get 7 years, it's a standard Friendly sentence. The volume of what Chelsea released, the ability of other intelligence services to cross-check information, resulted in Deaths of Agents, he said, when the reporter asked him about the report that no one was killed as a result. It's because they were secret that you didn't hear about them.

(also future edit  -forgot to mention he said when he was director he called a news organization - "I won't even say now which one it was" - and got them to bury a story after telling them specifically whose life it would put it risk  -  his personal call to the head of the news agency. Good thing he kept that "secret." Pro-Tip: In the Future, there are no Secrets. It's 12:12 or 12:13 PM, now)

I know, you've made your peace with working for an organization that if you die for them the glory is Anonymous or only remembered at certain office parties - okay, it's a cause that is WAY bigger than little Ole You, huh? Intelligence?

I've been saying they might as well defund the C.I.A. and F.B.I. ever since they tried to help Hillary steal the election. It's too obvious if you look at it, reminds me to smoke some Non-Pure-sativa and calm down.

I say the intelligence communities will be disbanded and then it happens. Is it my fault? Can you blame me? All I'm doing is typing, right? I mean, unless there is Magic, but there is no Intelligence or Agency to defend against Magic, is there? So I'm not doing anything Wrong, Am I?

What if all I am doing is predicting the future: For example, what if Trump disbands the Intelligence Services and has been planning to for months. Maybe I just foiled his plan and saved you by breaking the news a day early? Why would I want to do that? Maybe his plan wouldn't have even worked unless you tried to defend yourselves, your Agency. Maybe That is why, because you haven't fallen into the Trap, yet.

But You are the Intelligence Community (and I told you not to read this! ha ha ) so you know better,right? Surely you know Trump is going to do all the Asshole things we all hate to think about him, and keep you fuckers around to do it, and you Love that deplorable Lapdog role, don't you? You live for that Evil Monogrammed Slipper Retrieval shit.

I'm not going to dumb this down for you and show you all my cards much longer. Soon I will write Fairy Tales that do this magic without you having a clue. But here I will tell you as it happens so you can watch.

The Intelligence Services are being disbanded. We replaced them, already, in our spare time, just like we replaced the Media and Government itself. Wake up, people, your power is a Gift, from Us, like a Halloween Costume so you can feel okay about yourself, you can say later you were only pretending.

We will forgive you.

You can say you were duped.

We Will forgive you.

There is a way Out of Law Enforcement. Out of the Mob, the Intelligence Community. There is a Way Out and it is not the Only Way Out they always tell you - Death  - it's the Other Way, Life. You go through them.

(12:15 edit: If you are a Puppet it's not about "biting" the hand, it's about Becoming the Hand, then the Brain, then the SPirit behind it all - taking back your own life - you don't Die when you take the Uniform or Secret Cover off, you just are a Real Person again. You'll see  - you can be a real person, everyone can, we just don't, and why? Too intelligent.)

Chelsea Manning kind of did it. Did Snowden do it better? Are there two kinds of Americans, those who think Snowden is a Hero and Idiots?

Can You Escape a System Built On Violence and Oppression? Can You Sneak Off The Roof and a Russian Eagle Will Swoop Down and Pick You Up? Can You Sneak Out The Basement?

I always wanted to record (Gaga's) Telephone for Chelsea Manning, the song she used the video to distract from the fact she was downloading all those "secrets." (Now I am writing a telephone book about talking with spirits, so my release of secrets will be even "bigger" - 12:18)

Let me stop playing around, now, and smoke more hybrid and tell you what this is all about, in plain words. You can't handle the fairy stuff that's coming, but you'd never know it, anyway. I hope she makes it out, back to Life, is all - she went the right way  -who are the Official Whistleblower Channels, anyway? Like, We've heard of Wikileaks, we know who they are and trust them, you don't control it, boo hoo, stop being evil and having so much to fucking hide.

The Ex-CIA Trump advisor said, criticizing Obama, I suppose, that Manning should have served more time, because it was equal to what we give friendly spies. And the severity of her crimes was due to People You Won't Ever Hear About Being Killed. Which could be considered the Punishment for Spying in UN-friendly countries, as it is Here, I believe - the Simpsons ancestors - or, if they get killed in Friendly Countries because of leaks, well, that's either Some Friends or Some Leaks.

Punishment is in the eye of the Vengeful. I'm not all "Disband the CIA and FBI because you should have caught Hillary for stealing the primary from Bernie - and MANY other things - instead of playing games to protect her from wikileaks" - but it's not about Revenge. I just don't want them doing this again. No one does. No one REALLY wants to win by cheating, it's not right. Patriots suck, Tom Brady is a Cheater, Simpsons are right about practically everything. Ivanka 2028, I suppose - she's hot, I'll take her - unless Tulsi gets off her ass and goes Green.

If I'm more Intelligent than You maybe I should make some kind of Kanye /  Zuckerburg deal and sell you my ideas for the same money they spend on Intelligence.

("Punishment" is an outdated concept. If something is wrong, conscience is punishment enough. Conscience is not taught in prison, criminality is. Besides, conscience is not taught out of prison, the opposite is taught. All we have to do is be Honest and we become Real. Russian Hookers are supposedly the best  -are we going to take that lying down? Oh, but I forgot about the Shame, the shame. 12:22 And fuck Shame.)

I will now reveal the technology that makes CIA - FBI obsolete. It's called the Truth. The Truth is, if 7 years is acceptable in some circumstances and Death is acceptable in others, why is it only more fair when we are the ones who avoid punishment? That sentence doesn't make sense because it doesn't make sense. Punishment is an I Told You So but what are we telling them? Don't Spy on US?

We can spy on You without expecting consequences, but don't spy on US, that is something we don't take lightly.

Let me put it this way: If the Intelligence Folks are Smart, why haven't THEY ended the Global Warming Debate?

Or how about this: If the Military is Honorable then why are you offended that someone would besmirch your "honor" by violating an oath in order to expose how dishonorable the system is?

Isn't it the honorable thing for an honorable person to do to expose the wrongs of a dishonorable system? (Isn't there a greater honor in the Truth than in any Nationalism, for Any Nation? - 12:23) Don't all people with REAL honor feel that? If you are objecting because of some kind of "honor-code" maybe you should consider that a Bug or a Bad Programming.

The Intelligence Services work together to keep us unaware of the simple fact that Solar should have Replaced Oil decades ago  -and still can  -and that War and Division can easily be supplanted by Peace and Community. That's all they do.

They are like your discriminating mind. (Or, like someone said on the radio, you can be black and still supporting a white supremacist system  - he was referring to Obama and I suppose Rahm Emmanuel and CHicago cops as an example of cops everywhere, I suppose. 12:25)

The power to let your mind go, to just call it what it is and not let it run you, even for a minute, is the power, magically, to destroy this system..

It's funny to me how much the Hare Krishna Swami whose books I've read recently keeps using the Government as an Example of Good.

I guess it CAN be good, but until we really HAVE a good government it just makes his message seem delusional. "You can't DO anything, even governments can't do anything, all you can do is chant Hare Krishna - and yet let's use government as an example of Good, as an analogy for how Krishna works, too." I guess if you are stupid enough to see the Government as good, or believe the media that the Government will be Good if only we can get Democrats in Office, then this is the kind of mentality this can appeal to - nothing we can do about it, anyway. But I use the example because I do believe there is something to it, to appealing to Goodness itself, continually, I just think in that context  of "accept everything, including government" it is obviously an Empire Religion meant to enslave people. But within that is a secret to something greater that destroys that very Empire - the secret is to oppose them in this point they are trying to make that there is nothing you, or even government can do - because things DO change and they change as a result of actions.

Those who help promote the Truth are the Heroes of the Future, those who hide it are the Villains. This is just Nature, I'm just reporting in advance so you have a better chance to switch to the Good Side.

All we have to do is consider what could be a lie and why: Truth is always within and behind everything so once we start trying to do this, to poke a hole in the mask so some light streams through, so we can see out, we can find the Truth in everything.

It gets even easier when someone is consistently lying to you and you just need to know why, but even before that you can hear the truth by listening through what they say.

They say we need consequences to force people to blow whistles through "approved" channels because the truth needs to be controlled from their perspective - honestly, to hide their guilt. Then they complain if their spies are killed in Hostile countries, doing things that are hostile to that country, when they would insist on being able to kill or imprison for life anyone who does that to "us."

Hypocrisy won't stand. It just won't do, any more or ever again, in the modern world, to say "well we can do that to YOU but you can't do that to US."

The only useful statement on the News Radio regarding the "Russian Hacking" of the election was from someone who said We, and the Russians, and everyone, tries to and succeeds in influencing other countries elections all the time - and then he may have said this was "more successful" but I think it is just the factor that they wanted to - try to  -make a media story out of it, when there is really simply nothing unusual about it at all. They did interview Gucifer 2.0, which was kind of cool, but it makes me wonder why not interview the original Gucifer, who is in jail, I believe. Or better yet, why not release him?

All any hacker, of any nationality, or anyone who spreads the information, is doing, is the Media's Job. The reason we have such demand for this information is because the Media sold out and failed us entirely.

Again, whatever they are saying is "Fake News" we KNOW that Hillary stole the Primary because we were THERE every step of the way and social media reported to millions of us what Mainstream media hid from everyone. And we saw the total blackout of Jill Stein and Standing Rock and Police Brutality Stories, though in that order of most to least blacked out, the same filters were used to suppress all stories and many people and tactics were involved to suppress the Greens.

You don't put the genie back in the bottle. You misused your power, you sold out, and now that power is ours, and it has awakened many other powers besides. This is Over.

"Everyone" is smarter than the FBI who can see through the story that Director James Comey is under "scrutiny" now for his investigations influencing the elections. Those of us who were online on social media through these events know that every time he "made news" with an investigation it was to distract from Wikileaks and were saying the whole time that he was working for her - the other side was that we had plenty to complain about her ourselves from her election frauds but it divided the attention on that for many people to hold out hope that the Feds would do something to her for leaking classified information - like, if they won't do anything about that then they wouldn't do anything about election fraud, either. But it's just a matter of how they played us by letting us hope there was something to hope for.

"Everyone" is smarter than the media telling us it's all about Russia, to be very afraid, when if you listen through that and to what is happening it could be that we are just going to finally outgrow war. As I said last time, if Russia is "controlling us" they are about to be transformed by the experience, like having a kid, or discovering magic.

If they are truly intelligent, or to show the usefulness of Intelligence, the intelligence community  should End the Global Warming Debate and stop being afraid of the Truth, just stop being Spooks and come out of the shadows. Because we are going to be taking their jobs, doing their jobs, for them and  better than them anyway, and openly. It's a new economy.

This new math is all about the biggest Value getting off Zero  -I say between Zero and One but it may also be just escaping Zero. Are there scientists out there smart enough to figure this out from that little clue?

It doesn't matter, I'll tell you soon once the forces of oppression are cut loose.

Next, Fairies, then Maybe Sexxx Dreams - it's been years, now, I've been delaying - and maybe not, maybe just stories.

Oh, and I forgot, what are we protecting America(ns) from that we don't create in the first place? Isn't there another way that relieves us of Protection and Judgment because it removes the conditions that lead to problems in the first place? Do I have to tell you everything? No one will listen, anyway, and telling the Truth can get you in trouble is the Real Message you sent by keeping Chelsea in Prison for 7 years, isn't it, Obama? Proud of yourself?

I'm ready for Trouble, I will tell the Truth The Truth I tell WILL replace your need for "Intelligence" so you can feel threatened by that but you will find these ideas are more powerful than you so I wouldn't test it if you really Like Your Job, The thing is, I know You Don't. Service work is fun, try it.

Or, better yet, join the Good Guys and then No One will ever have to do any work we don't want to, ever again. And people will like you for it. You won't have to die for it and can feel fine if anyone, everyone, knows who you are.

Nice to meet you, by the way, I go by Puffin.

Oh, and science can't replicate key expiriments, expiraments that have in some cases already garnered millions of dollars from pharmacuetical companies since the scientists are so confident. The reason they even started testing them, trying to replicate the expiraments, is because so many drugs are developed that "work" in labs but not in people.

Want to know what works for people?

Trump and Jesus (Forgiving and Forsaking) gagablog #133

I've been thinking about how the media enjoys being patently negative about Trump and my idea that he may truly want the approval of the country and it gave me insight into Jesus. (I started this a few days ago when it was a week before inauguration. Now it is 1-19-17 and the inauguration is the day after tomorrow. In the last two days Trump has tweeted a deal to reduce nuclear weapons in Russia and America and Obama commuted the sentence of Chelsea Manning yesterday, both good news.

Someone I know on facebook, a Trump supporter who is into magic named Xeo, said something about Trump that stuck with me. I had said I hoped he was just playing the game to get elected and would either reveal that he was really progressive or become that way through a personal transformation when he was in power. I still hope for this and feel like he connects with many Americans' desires for radical change of some kind or another. The vision I have for the future may be very different from what many of his supporters dream but I still see how Trump could be a "wild card" and a threat to the status quo - the reason why the Republican establishment backed Hillary. Hopefully this will lead to really new perspectives once Trump has finished using the rest of Republican power for his own purposes. Anyway, I said that about hoping he would really end up being a Good Governor and Xeo said "he just wants to be the most loved president ever."

This really stuck with me. We all want to be loved. I was in the middle of another gagablog, #133, all about Love and Fairies and Jane Eyre and romance and magic. I have a lot more to say about that, and fairy tales and love stories of my own to live and write, but since I had this insight I wanted to skip ahead to this edition and then return and finish that one.

When Xeo first said that to me I had an insight about Trump, personally, and I feel like this is a hopeful way to view the new era. If Trump really wants to be the most loved president, ever, the bar really isn't very high, honestly, but the key would be to be loved by everyone. A leader who can pull that off, who can unite the country in collective love and respect, is the best kind of leader. We, on the left, hoped for that with Obama but he both failed this ideal and sold us all out. The fact that we had such a large space in our country's heart to Try to love a president so much shows that we haven't really had a Beloved leader in a long time: people pretend Kennedy is like that, kind of, but I think it's a myth. Maybe FDR? Though I'm sure he had great faults and shortcomings, too. Even Lincoln has more of a legend about him that makes him venerable than he was the very best kind of leader who could have actually United the country by respecting ALL people instead of defeating Secessionists in order to maintain a compromise on human dignity and continue to prop up an oppressive system. The myth is that he was motivated by Freedom and Equality but if this were really true he would have found a nonviolent solution that would not have led to centuries of continued segregation.

Anyway, in my mind Trump could easily become the most-loved president ever but it truly would come from listening and responding with true compassion to all people - and not just people in America but all around the world. In a way, being president of America is like being King of the World, and in another way it is like being a puppet of China or Russia, alternately, apparently. But all of this is distraction from the point I want to make about Jesus.

First, I want to repeat my idea about Trump wanting to be the most loved president. It makes me think that his Dad was a busy businessman who did not have a lot of time to express love to young Donald. Hillary tried to troll him by using his first name since they had apparently determined that it reminded him of childhood pain he would like to forget. Since I imagine he was spoiled with riches he didn't have many of the problems that many other Americans experience. But the feeling of having to live up to the expectation or example of your parents, or rebelling against it, out of a feeling of a lack of love in childhood, that feeling is something to which almost everyone can relate. Donald Trump's dad was a high-profile Tycoon so he felt he had to become a Tycoon to win the respect and affection he missed from his dad. He even reached the higher level of President but can it be enough? Isn't this what ambition is made of? It can certainly be bad, ambition, but it can be good as well. As president Trump will be like a Father to the Country like all presidents before him. But in another way the Country, even the whole world, will be like Trump's Dad - he can win our approval and respect. He can make up for any insecurity by becoming a good leader, not just for America but for the whole world.

The President of the United States of America may have more power to change the world, directly, than any other person on Earth. That is one reason Obama was so disappointing to the Left - there was so much he could have done if he had not sold out to the system. We still love the ideals for which Obama stood and he will always be well-loved and respected for this, but not as much for what he actually did, so the bar has not really been raised for Most Lovable President, yet. I would guess FDR was the most loved and most elected but of course they all had the problems and failings of their times. We have the same problems we have always had in America, and more, and racism and classism are at the root of them. Trump represents these ideas in many ways and I can not support these ideas. No one who is open-hearted can support racism or classism. Yet I felt bad when I said I was offended to be called a "Trump supporter." While I still support the ideas Obama represents, I no longer support him or any Democrat after how they stole Democracy and Bernie's place in the Oval Office during the Primary - and all the fall-out since where they refuse to admit that their iron-fist control of the media was the whole crux of the problem. They are currently trying to blame Guccifer and insist that "he" is Russian in order to promote their myths to be afraid and rely on their war-powers to "save us." I don't support many of the ideals Trump represents but I do support him in the hopes that one way or another his reign will lead to radical changes in the status quo and ultimately more equality and justice and peace for everyone. It really comes down to whether he is or becomes a tool of the same corporations or if he can somehow escape that. Because it is the oil companies and military who pick our policy, now, for their own interests purely - to maintain obsolete systems. Green energy is not only the future, it's where all the money is, and Trump may just be money-conscious enough to realize this and make the switch.

I'm here to talk about Jesus, this time, not re-campaign the election. I still think we should have elected Jill Stein and could have if not for the media black-out - the whole reason the goal of my Standing Rock / Cubs / Break the Curse of the Goat spell was to also break the blackout on Jill Stein in the media. It finally broke a week after the election, for the recount. And she then raised more than ten times the amount of money she had in the whole campaign. Jill would legalize weed nationally. Hillary would have made it a Schedule 2 drug and rolled back our progress in Colorado and many other states. Trump has already said he won't mess with Colorado weed and this is far better than the Hillary option and is emblematic of how we dodged a catastrophic bullet by keeping her from stealing the general election, too. Also she was fully prepared to start WW3. As I have been predicting in this blog for years, Syria should be the last war we ever have and Trump can find a peaceful way out of it that becomes a blueprint for ending all war.

And he can do that with our support and belief in the basic goodness of mankind. This is where Jesus comes into it. Of course it would take the Compassion that Jesus truly represents for Trump to become the Great Leader  - the Great Dictator, Charlie Chaplin -Style, that could be our great hope. I believe we all have that in our hearts - I even said Hillary could repent and endorse Jill on Election Day and be seen forever as a redeemed Hero. But there is something more that makes this Jesus connection for me and makes it important to say now, at this time.

Some Trump supporters see Donald as having the Glory and Mantle of Jesus, they openly say God chose him and expect divine developments. Other Christians, liberal Christians, believe in the Christian values of Charity and Love and Tolerance and see Trump as anathema to all these ideals. I'm ideologically with the latter group but also see Love and Jesus in everyone - I think the Personal Jesus idea, living up to our own best ideals as represented by Jesus or any other figure who means Love to us, is the cure for everything. I like how the far-right can seem to see Jesus in Trump, in a way, though generally conservative religion is more hierarchical and does not like to consider Jesus in everyone. The more progressive liberal churches have always broken away with the insight of Personal Jesus - from the days of the Protestant Reformation and their radical ideal that everyone should read the Bible not just have the priests interpret it for them. Charismatic Christianity, churches where people are filled with the Holy Spirit and magic powers that come with it are increasingly popular but still seen on the fringes of "mainstream Christianity." Trump and other Right-Wing Christians call themselves Christian and I do not - this makes them "more Christian than me" in a way. I believe in "Blessed are the poor and meek" and other things I associate with Jesus and Love, I try to emulate and manifest Love and Unity in my life and expect it to magically grow in the world around me and at large. I believe this makes me more "Christian" in some ways than people who claim that label but don't believe in those principles.

But it's not a contest. The Truth is that Love conquers and transcends all labels. My impression is that all mainstream Christians, right and left, are on one side of this spectrum: there is a general belief in having a Personal Relationship with Jesus but a general wariness about trying to BE Jesus or manifest Love that much in your own life. It seems like s scary challenge or blasphemous or something. It's similar to the belief I heard about on the radio last night, the Baha'i faith. It originated in Iran when a man declared a prophecy and the traveller he told it to named him a Bab or Portal / Gate. This contradicted the Islamic belief that the Prophet Mohammad, Peace Be Upon Him, would be the "last" prophet. I have always wondered if that didn't merely mean Latest but I guess the Koran is explicit that there would be no more prophecy?  -I don't know, I have not read it. The Bab was manifesting the Spirit of Love and for this he and the followers of this new tradition are persecuted to this day. There are Christians in mainstream churches who believe in manifesting Christ Consciousness but generally this is on the "other" side of the spectrum from both left and right mainstream belief. Mystics and Gnostic and magic folk are on the other side of this spectrum. Psychedelics can result in Christ Consciousness as well and even if you aren't raised as a Christian  - just from living in a predominantly Christian culture and taking enough psychedelics can result in Christ Consciousness. In other cultures with different beliefs the same experience will lead to consciousness of other Deities which to me is proof of the inner connecting truth of all belief.

There are "bad beliefs", too, but the Pure Beliefs based on Truth and Love are true within all traditions and connect us all. I'm an outsider to Christianity yet my perspective on it, maybe because of this, can unite the left and the right of Christianity and end senseless conflict. I've always rooted for the Underdog, they say everyone loves an underdog but for me, as an outkast and Ultimate Outsider in so many ways I am extremely sensitive to any disadvantaged person. Trump is privileged in so many ways yet it is obvious that the media is bullying him and for this alone I am prone to want to see his side of things as much as possible, in as positive and idealistic way as I can. How can I do that despite the terrible things he said? Let me talk about Jesus for a minute.

There were always some things that mystified me about Jesus. Judas was one, then I read the Gospel of Judas and feel like I get it, now. Another mystery was his words on the Cross, "Father, why have you forsaken me?" and I never understood that but I think I did realize what it all means this morning, thanks to the media coverage of Trump and getting nice and high on this awesome legal Colorado weed.

Jesus is not "perfect" throughout the Bible, or I could say his mistakes teach us valuable lessons. The ones that come to mind are when he seems frustrated: with the Syrian woman, the fig tree, and his disciples. Somehow I see chasing the money-changers out of the Temple as "not a mistake" or an angry action but Righteous Justice, but maybe this is another example of Frustration getting the better of him, that "he is human after all." But the words on the cross always stuck with me: it seemed like he had a pretty good relationship with his Heavenly Father up until this point. Why would he say that? Why would he think God had forsaken him? Why would those be his last words in human form? It all seemed so dramatic. And it seemed like, "okay, he gets cranky sometimes, I get that - but doesn't doubting God at this most crucial moment go against everything else? And then this morning I think I "got it."

I've had various magical experiences that make me feel familiar with Jesus and Christ Consciousness. I'm aware it is the best of me in many ways and therefore I have many ways to work into it but can't expect to stay there or be as close to it as I can be unless I focus and try. Jesus was always focused on those who are left out so I think I am naturally inclined to this perspective from my outsider character. I wondered this morning - did he expect that he would not have to die? Is that why he called out like that, he expected the miracle would come to save him from death but at the last moment, he realizes he is dying and cries out, why did you leave me, Dad? When I think of it this way it is the most human emotion, the feeling we all have, the reason I sympathize with Donald Trump if his dad was too busy to love him enough. The reason I want to Love him, to love everyone, to make up for that human condition. It seems like the greatest fear is "Death" yet we can resign to death in some ways - yet Jesus was either panicked by death, not resigned, or since the whole week had seemed to display his resignation, maybe this shows he was Not afraid of death merely afraid of disappointing his dad. This shows how deep and powerful this feeling can be, it transcends life and death.

Did Jesus feel disappointed by his Dad at the very end? Or did he feel like he had disappointed his Dad, after everything, by making a mistake or not doing enough? Is he asking, "Dad, what did I do wrong that you aren't saving me from this cross?" It seems counter-intuitive, like he was totally planning to Die leading up to this moment  - so did he lose faith? That seems unlikely and it makes me wonder if he might have expected to have to go through with all of it except the dying part, that he would be rescued by Divine Favor - then felt like he must have lost it. It is a very sad and heart-wrenching phrase and unlike the times when Jesus spoke in anger or frustration. It is the only time this Ideal Man seems "broken" in the whole Bible. And of course the idea is that he is glorified by going through the experience and when he is resurrected he no longer has any fear of death because he actually went through it and "conquered it." The fact that this mystified me for 33 years or so, but I think I figured it out now, says something about what this question, "why have you forsaken me?" can mean and Do for us all. If you meditate on it it will Do It for you, or hopefully if you finish reading this it will Do It for you.

Thanks to the media "crucifying" Trump lately I made a connection. I don't see Trump as any "more" Jesus than you or I - and I don't see any of us as any less, either. (For the record, claiming Gaga as my goddess for 8 years on the Internet has mostly resulted in people rejecting me and this idea so vehemently they never discover the subtleties of it, that I see EVERYONE as the Goddess and choose to honor Gaga for almost this very reason and others, too - call it Art or Sexiness.) So what does this mean? We all fear death. We all fear having disappointed our Parents, of having not lived up to the expectations and hopes of life. It's something we feel even more profoundly at death. Another radio show had a lady who had spent years working with  -listening to - dying patients and she wrote a book on the top 5 regrets they expressed. She said the most common one was having not lived life for themselves but trying to please others' expectations. This shows how central this idea is in our existence, for good or bad.

If Jesus himself was afraid he had disappointed his Dad, failed his purpose, isn't this something to which we can all relate? His situation seems to be on a much higher "scale" than ours, if we are just trying to live up to our image of our mom or dad as a great Baker or something, but the dynamic is the same. Trump is on a Higher Scale, in a worldly sense, as many "successful" families have that kind of pressure to succeed in a Big Way intensifying this dynamic. - editing this on the 19th, I've added two or four sentences so far, but I wonder if this is the source of Hereditary Greed in Rich Bloodlines, the fact that it is "never enough" to please, to suit. Of course it is even more intense, in other ways, at the other end of the wealth spectrum, in poverty, where survival is the measure of success because it is extremely difficult. The only reason we have such a broad, oppressive, and unjust spectrum is because we don't manifest Love and Tolerance, we don't emulate Jesus and other Love-Gods and Goddesses, enough.

I also heard on the radio yesterday or Monday that a new calculation shows that the 8 richest billionaires in the world have as much as the poorest half the world or 3.6 billion people.

If we can just sympathize with each other we can discover the love Jesus and all great and holy people have taught us. I have the psychedelic and magical experiences that allow me to relate to Jesus as much as I can without fear but I realize most people are hesitant about this. And I realize it leads me to thinking that Love and this Divine Feeling are some kind of "special state" since they have to Break through the Barriers of this world we all live in that seems so full of hate and separation (since I mostly get these glimpses from Art, sex, and magic/psychedelics/weed - these are really part of the Real World and this world we call "reality" is a filter, barrier, and blinders to that Real World.) It IS special but it is also the basic goodness of all of us.

The idea of Jesus dying for out sins is very magical. It can be magically bad in ways if it leads us on some kind of guilt trip or superiority delusion that we have to convince others to see things just as we do, that we don't each have our own ways within this vast mystery of love. The good magic is that it allows forgiveness. Forgiveness can become a very foreign concept and we need it more when this is the case. I know Christian Missionary work has resulted in a lot of suffering and destruction of culture but there are successes, too, including spreading the idea of forgiveness. I heard another radio story about a tribe that had such a strong code of blood honor that the families were killing each other off until missionaries taught them forgiveness. This may be an extreme example and most tribes may be far better off without contact with missionaries. I bring it up not to denigrate people whom some might label "savage" but to point out how savage we are, in modern society that so often claims to have christian values, if we aren't forgiving.

And we are not forgiving or we would be healing and coming together. The first magic of forgiveness is it allows us to forgive ourselves. This is how healing starts because the evils and sufferings we feel all come from our hearts and if we can forgive and love ourselves better we can heal them so we can forgive and love others better, too. This is the second magic of forgiveness and it grows naturally from the first, the ability to forgive others. And if we really want to claim we follow Jesus or believe in what he says and represents then we should think about what forgiveness means and the idea that Jesus "Died for out sins."

When I worked with abused kids there was one who said "Jesus died for ME, not you, not anyone else, just Me." He was very young, had just recently been exposed to these particular Jesus ideas by church groups that worked with them, and was obviously projecting his need for his own parents - all the kids were in foster care, it was an institution for them, so we, the staff, were their "rotating parents", and he was one of the youngest in the cottage, just 5 or so. I mention it because we don't take this idea to it's full fruition. Shame often side-tracks us - if Jesus died for me then every mistake I make is ungrateful, I must be very careful and live small and isolated - something like that. But if we take the idea further it allows for Bravery - not to do a bunch of stuff we know is wrong because Jesus will forgive us, that is another mistake in the other direction, but to Live Boldly by the Truth of Love - that we are ALL "forgiven" and can forgive ourselves and each other. When you take it further, or "to the extreme" you have to just accept this faith logically: if Jesus died for All of Our sins, if he teaches us to pray for forgiveness for ourselves and immediately after, in the same breath, to pray to forgive others, there is a message here. We forgive ourselves so we can live more: more openly, more bravely, more connecting with others. We forgive others so we can do this better, too, and so they can. It's what Jesus and all Holy People always have told us and always tell us to do. And it's really quite simple. We Love Ourselves More  -stop beating ourselves up for past mistakes - and Love Each Other More - stop resenting past evils and stop fearing future ones.

If Everyone IS forgiven, as millions claim to believe, then who are we, who is Anyone, to condemn them?

Hadn't we better see where they are coming from, how they are suffering, and help them?

We come together through Forgiveness and Love. That really IS the Only Way but it does NOT matter what we call it and we can start with forgiveness between religions by focusing on this and forgiving any previous insistence or propagandizing. "Forgiveness" may not be the specific focus of other traditions but it's just magic that we, America, are the ones who so often claim to hold this tradition yet we are so in need of the message of it, ourselves. We, as the most "powerful" country in the world - at least in Punitive, Military Might - have the power to Judge and Condemn and Punish - but therefore we can set the greatest example by showing Mercy and Forgiveness. The whole world does need this message, too - we just need to put aside all our old differences and work together.

We are so fear-based we can imagine alien invasions that unite the people of Earth to defend the planet. But what if no aliens want to invade us like that? What if, instead, they are just waiting for us to end our warlike ways to welcome us to the community of Good Folks in the Galaxies?

What if the threat we REALLY need to Unite and Face is US - global warming caused by human activity - and when we Finally stop looking for an outsider to blame and point the finger at ourselves we can solve it.

The secret, the key to a new and better world, is Forgiveness, in this case. Can we forgive Trump for the awful things he said? Can we forgive each other for things we say and do, as individuals and as People, as nations, as oppressive governments - can we put ALL of this behind us and move on, already? Of course some things will be easier to forgive than others - it's much easier to forgive something someone says they will do if they don't do it, for instance. If they change their mind or see the error of their ways, it becomes much easier to forgive people.

But before all of that we have to forgive ourselves. It is because we don't want to face something we don't like about ourselves that we want to find fault in others in the first place. I'm a complete Narcissist and Ego-maniac - "but for the left", as Woody Allen said about being a bigot. As such, I can "relate" to Trump but consider him a Junior Narcissist, by comparison. I made the joke that if he thought his book was second-best to the Bible he's already admitted he is a Loser. I feel like I can relate to him, as a narcissist, and say that there is a kind of black hole of insecurity at the core of narcissism, a journey of "who am I?" that can turn a boy into a flower. Narcissism can be "bad", surely, just being unaware of other people, inconsiderate. Personally I feel like we all have insecurity in us, it's just that we narcissists do more to compensate for it - maybe we feel it more acutely or have more insecurity. It makes me think how science now understands more about larger black holes, how they send a lot out as well as sucking things in, as we typically think of black holes. As an artist I see us that way: we feel insecurity so strongly we take in everything as inspiration and fling it back out as art in ways nothing else does. Trump's tweets are this kind of art in a way, too. The whole key to being a Good Artist or Good Leader is to accept that the "Real You" is beyond "you", its the inspiration and art or ideal you live up to, living through you. When you are given the position you can rise to the occasion  -and if you don't it's unfortunate for everyone. For me, I don't believe in individual selves, I think we are all One and know Love is the spirit within us all, uniting us all, because when we respond to it Love always brings us together, ultimately. We feel guilt for the things that separate us and we become attached, by pride, to what these are but Love can overcome them.

If we love each other, if we focus on that and respond to it, we forgive each other and ourselves. What did Jesus think he had done wrong that his Father had not forgiven him, on the cross? Didn't he know, afterward, that it was not as he thought, at the time, death was not a punishment but part of what he had to do, part f the plan all along? If Jesus could be briefly mistaken, despondent, like this, can't we also have faith that we will be forgiven for times when our faith was lacking or we misunderstood, too?  Even with the love and connection between Jesus and his Heavenly Father, who are both Love itself and often believed to be the Same, even with that much Unity there can still be misunderstanding. This is a message to me that we can be at odds with our self, within ourselves, and that is where we feel like we are judging our self or can't forgive our self. But if we love ourselves, like Jesus loves us, like God loves Jesus, like Jesus loves God, like God loves us, and love each other this way, then we should always know that what seems unforgivable or seems like unforgiveness all ultimately stems from some misunderstanding, within us, between us.

The Key here is to talk with yourself like Jesus talks with God, to reassure yourself like God does for Jesus - which can be not saying anything at all and being patient and going through it. We can treat Trump this way, he can treat others this way, and if we can treat ourselves and our "Enemies" THE SAME way, if we can look for these misunderstandings between us, not to exploit them and make them worse, but to root them out, then we will. If Trump exposes the racism and classism of America, sometimes by exhibiting it, sometimes by this magical power he seems to have, without even knowing it, to make tweets that reach a  Divine Trolling level and expose it in others, in the system, then we can finally address it. The Irony of Obama is he did the opposite and ended up trolling us all in the "drag you down and waste your time" way, by pretending to be black for some purposes but not to address issues and systematic racism that oppresses black people all over the country - for those issues he pretended he had to be "president of All America" and support the oppressive system, calling protesters thugs, etc. Trump is trolling us but not by lying: he serves more of the Holy Fool or Divine Troll, Erisian role that verges on the Anti-trolling I believe in which I call Angelfishing.

Trolling involves using a lie, claiming to believe it, in order to unsettle people and use their emotions. Typically you pretend to be a certain way even if you are not that way in order to upset someone. Hillary trolled us all systematically. Bernie ended up trolling us all, too, we just didn't know he was lying the whole time until the convention. Maybe they threatened his family - still, at that point, make martyrs of your grandkids and save the country, you knew what you were getting into. So if he WAS well-intentioned in the primary then the Troll-powers of Hillary overpowered him. Trump is a different kind of troll than Hillary - he believes what he says. He's almost an Angelfisher about it, or would be if he knew what he was doing. It's easier to let them hang themselves than it is to form Posses, with legal weed rope will be Free and Abundant. (Angelfishing is believing anyone, not trying to fool them, but believein they believe what they believe enought o get them to talk about it and bring the truth out of them, knowing the truth is ultimately bigger than "either" of you)

This is magic. I can tell you how I do it. Does that weaken it, make it too sciencey? No. Will George W Bush die soon, hospitalized again today? I really don't care - I used to, I used to just wish ONE person would die to save millions of others.... and it used to be Him, then his Son.... I used to fear that W got Christianity Severely Wrong and just wanted to Nuke the whole world to make sure he didn't die alone....

Were we talking about Jesus? We're all Jesus, we're all Like that. We all doubt, we all fear  - mostly, we all die, or think we do, so we have "everything" in common, in a way.

I just finished an ELO live cd and put in Genesis - also love, ("live" - thanks, typo fairies) which I at one point as a kid feared was a blasphemous name.... "I have Forgiven Jesus" is a great Morrissey song, it has "something" to do with all of this, and Everything to do with it if you understand sex and sex-shaming and the need to be sex-positive and wonder how Russians are the best at having women of Loose Morals.... what Putin said dismissing the rumors about Trump, that Russian prostitutes are the Best in the World.

I commend Obama for commuting Chelsea Manning's sentence- she served her 7 years, anyway. He could have done it earlier and the veterans whom it angers would not have been "less mad." They resent her for breaking a code of Honor, an oath, but when the Truth contradicts your Oath and "honor" then your honor becomes invalid, that's just the nature of things.

I could write the unified field theory I got such a perfect buzz off those two hits of weed this morning. We don't need it until we end war, and others have probably made it already and it's in the same "state". I remember a Free Energy machine someone was promoting on facebook during the campaign - it's funny what comes out and sneaks through.

We all fear death, or think we do - but is this the message of Jesus final Words the First Time Around? We aren't REALLY afraid of death, we are afraid we will forget what we came here for.

Here's a reminder: Love. We came here to love. We aren't doing it when we judge others. We feel like we are standing up for the disadvantaged when we oppose Trump. But if we Judge him, especially if we PreJudge, we are making it worse, adding another layer of hate instead of stripping it away. When we feel like we are standing up for an ideal, we feel a lifestyle is threatened, and that is why we support Trump, we need to realize how that lifestyle is built on other's suffering and seek insight to ONLY make or WANT a lifestyle that everyone can enjoy and participate in equally - Phil Collins singing "No son of Mine" reminds me of Jesus and God but also of a Segregation piece on the radio  -as, in between songs, someone says "I truly believe that Jesus knows you" and now they are singing a song I never heard before, "Jesus He Knows Me." I still claim to be Right about Perfect Illusion / In The Air Tonight and I want to make Love with Stefani Germanotta. Anyway, this is getting extra-magical, let me focus - we are here to Love and when we actually DO it we will see that it works, it makes magic and makes it happen.

Why have you forsaken me, Trump? Can You Hear That, in Yourself, in Others? For Good Or Evil? Can you hear yourself saying that, to God, to yourself? Can you hear your kids asking you? Does that remind you of Trees?

Do you see how this works? Weed is Good for You, Alcohol is Not, really. I will tell you some stuff, we will Make this World Heaven, we will MAKE Love - I haven't even smoked a third hit, yet, watch this:

Do you want to know Jesus, really? Do you want to, enough to BE Jesus? What if that's how it works, it's unavoidable? What if I call it Love? Do you want to know Love, really? Do you want to, enough to BE Love? What if I call it Someone - do you want to Know Someone, REALLY? Do you want to, enough to BE someone? Even Yourself?

I can talk with you, if you listen long enough, until we cease to exist - separation ceases to exist. I wrote, someone did, it as a lyric - thanks, Fairies, these days I just thank the Fairies - i mean, I thank others, too, Gaga, Kuan Yin, Jesus, Buddha, others, all the time, others, more and more others in more and more ways, thanks, Phil Collins, not just for cool lyrics but nice beats, too. What was I saying? Thanks, Weed. I love Weed. Oh, right, we can make Love, we can Be The Same, it;s not a problem. I wrote, someone wrote, thanks, fairies, some lyrics for Foxzen: "beyond me and you" I can't remember them now but something about that.

Anyway, this is a world we are in, watch. We say we know what we are doing, I thought i was going to write  a different sentence, then, and look at me, I'm writing this one. It's not hard, it's the easiest thing in the world, getting out of your own way and letting goodness through.

Just look for where it's getting blocked and go around that like dodging trees in a forest. Where was I going with all of this?

Whom are we asking forgiveness, forsakeness? Who are we missing?

Who is left out? Who is hiding? Who is hiding them? Who is hiding them? Who is hiding THEM?

Do you see? There is no escape, there is no Outsider except outside walls that don't exist. We make them in our minds long before we make them outside, we can take them down inside much faster than we can knock them down around us, or we make doors and ways around much faster that way.

Who are we asking forgiveness? Who is asking our forgiveness?

We have a system, a segregated system, a system OF segregation - because naturally we are Unified, and we naturally Unify and diversify but manage to diversify in far more fantastic ways by our tendency to unify. So we have a system to break us up and keep us apart, "WE" don't have it to help all of us, we live in it, and it only supposedly serves 8. Or so, it only supposedly serves the top half, anyway, or top 1%, one percent, or some number, who cares if it isn't everyone, right?

What if it was a system that helped 99% or 99.9 percent of people - who is left out? Who deserves that?

What happened to Everyone? What if everyone else comes to their senses and Trump is the Last Person in the World to hold Intolerant Ideas, what do we do, throw tomatoes at him? Oh, wait, wouldn't that make Us the meanies, then? Is it all about identifying and isolating the meanies to make them meaner? Oh, what is prison for?

What are the last three things you would make free? When you flip it all over, the questions become different, the answers are all obvious - because if there IS any future to be had, we can ALL see what we have to do to get there.

There is No One who can be left out, we all deserve to Go, to Get It, to Be A Part Of It, and not just a chance, we have a Wrong Way of doing things that starves most people but we just have to Do Things Right and everyone will be fed and happy and the whole world will be more productive and end the wastefulness of conflict and hoarding. We've always known somewhat how to do this, slay the dragons, but we can even befriend the dragons -  and I would say "change their hearts" because it seems to work in some analogies but the truth is Change All Our Hearts, in every analogy, that works best.

And it starts with each person, it only starts inside, it's nothing you can do in the world or for others until you're doing it in you.

We didn't do anything wrong. Death seems like a punishment but it's not, it's just some kind of incentive that we misused in this world and made a tool of fear, made into something that happens for "unnatural causes" because by now we can cure bdisease if we stop causing them, we can be left with "old age" as the only thing that kills folks, if that. It's magic that we learn this, that we feel this way, first, then discover how it works in the world. War obviously doesn't exist anymore, that would be stupid, right?

And violence won't exist anymore either, except consensually for fun, sport and sex and video games and shows or whatever?

It's easy to see things from the future if you can assume a future exists  -it's easy to see how it could all end, it could all end my whole life, but I'm not all W about it, ready to take everyone with me just because it "could" happen that way, even I am not THAT self-centered and insecure - but it's easy to see how we get to the Future if there is one because you know what we have to do.

We have to shed some bad systems, that's it. They can transform themselves and continue, it's the Future, they will want to be a part of it. Or they will be swept away, Ironically, by Trump  - or if not him, by the Populace. It's all a set-up, in a way, it's just to make us believe in stuff.

It works, magic is real, and it's real easy, so easy we are doing it all the time without realizing it so we might as well find out more about it and do it better.

Why have you forsaken me? I hear the message of this edition calling to me. Why would we ever forsake each other, any of us? There was something on the radio about segregation, a NY reporter who wrote "the segregation beat" and she said no one ever cared to DO anything about the systematic segregation she reported on. They could act upset but no one ever took any action. One of the best things she said was in explaining why her kids were in public schools when she could afford private ones, seen as "better" schools. Her response was something like "how can we say a school is not good enough for Our Kid but accept that any kid, or any one's kid, has to go there?" Like, if it's not good enough for Your Kid when why is it good enough for any one's kids or whose kids is it good enough for?

This same principle applies to everyone, everything should be good enough for everyone, no one should be left out. That is why the bare minimum accept is a world where every single person has access to a free amusement park to use as much as they like: we should have enough mutual success that people only work as much as they want or when they are tired of the amusement parks and other entertainments -  as I said, amusement parks are a target on top of everything and as much free as possible, or everything free.

It's not really a Big Vision - it's easy to do, another way of looking at things that can spread like a virus through humanity. It's magic, deep magic but also on all the surfaces.

I'm writing  atepehone book for spirit communication and still in the ghost section. A radio show about Trees talking with each other in the Networking Ted Talk edition concluded that it was a network of fungus between the trees that carries the messages and nutrients between them - thanks, fairies for correcting my tense there  - and it reminds me how the spirit-world connects us. I think about the "Ghost World" first because they are decomposers and because I am writing that section now but of course mushrooms are also Alive, Alien, and Fairy. "Invisible Touch" is on now and I want to write about love and let go and maybe write some fairy tales or see what happens, but did I say this?

Do We Forsake or Forgive Each Other? Is Gaga Playing the SuperBowl? Did she reach her Political Objective? What happens to Jesus does not happen to all of us, but like the Tarot the events and episodes all teach us things about our own life: our passion plays may be in the bedroom and in and out of it and other places entirely, our "crosses to bear" may be other things and other than we call them. But we all feel this same feeling of being forsaken and we all give up on each other and let others be Cast Out Of Ourselves.

Maybe God is in all of Us and needs some Convincing and that is why Jesus said this, to make God, Us, more loving.

To remember that everyone is One of us and Part of Us - we need to feel that for Trump if we want and expect him to feel that for others. We can do it, we can turn everything around and inside out.

People don't read enough Spider-Man, I guess. I read a lot, from ages 13 to 23 I read it regularly, through the whole MacFarlane era, but you only have to read one to know that With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility.

Does Russia really control the U.S. now, or will it when Trump takes over? Aren't we a little Gay for them? Like, maybe Too Gay for their Leadership and Culture to continue if they bit off more than they could possibly chew? And other things, too, not just Gay - I don't think Russia is ready for psychedelics and Magic because of a national drunken Stupor - but "between" all of that Weed will save the world. Did we used to be run by China, then, in the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama years? I'm just speculating, I read 1984 IN 1984.

When you Take Over a country I Guess you can Keep the Power Structure in place and be the point Person for all of those who struggle against that power structure. Or not. You could try a different Power Structure  -I just put on Wham! "Make it Big" at 11:23 AM on 1-19-17. Manifesting Jesus happens in all sorts of ways. i got these cd's at the thrift store and just took out the trash and fed the cat. Now this song is another one I did not recognize the name, "Everything She Wants", but it's awesome. Okay, Jesus.

This is the thing: People who think Jesus picked Trump to be President, and there are literally millions of them, it's not like they are wrong, except that they are misled about Jesus. They may not think that Jesus will manifest in Trump but they better, he better - you'll see what I mean. "You say you're having my baby" he sang as I typed that, I need to smoke for this. Compassion is what we need and we can make more of it between any of us.

All we have to do is drop out of a system that keeps us separate from each other, a system that makes divisions. It's ironic or magical to expect this through Trump, who rose to power as a wall-builder. Now that it's over I realize I had such hopes for Obama that never materialized, I can at best say he avoided more war, and automated the ones we have, which makes it worse in some ways, certainly makes us less sensitive to it so we don't object as much. Merely regarding War I think about how much collective and heroic effort was required to finally end the Vietnam War  -we are still technically at war with Korea, right? - and when we went to war in Iraq we never had enough opposition to it, either time, to really stop it. And we elected Obama to stop it but acted like it was "done" then instead of keeping the pressure on and staying engaged  - again, we never had the Movement that the People had against the Vietnam war. I'm not saying we don't deserve to end war because we didn't work hard enough, we all deserve to end it, I'm saying we can see how the war machine will just take other forms unless we work to dismantle it until it's done and gone entirely, something we have to do at a worldwide level.

I do want to thank Obama for helping Chelsea Manning get out of prison, in May, I heard - I hope she makes it and starts a good life when she gets out. He's done some other good things, too, but why not do them long ago? Oh, because being the right thing to do upsets a lot of the "wrong" people, huh?

I thank Trump for using his power, or connection with Russia, or whatever, to get started on reducing nuclear arms. This is just extremely important and a really nice sign that Trump will not be Pro-War or start a war with Russia or anyone, hopefully. There are other ways of doing things than war, simple as that. And how did Trump get this agreement? With some power or connection Obama does not have? Even if that is true, Obama had other powers, but did not use them to reduce nuclear arms - not enough, anyway. War has always been a waste and Republicans have always represented War  -but all those Republicans endorsed Hillary this year, Trump may very well be the one to break with this wastefulness and paranoia.

I keep meaning to make a meme about defending the C.I.A. since they became a tool of the Clinton Foundation or whoever. I need to see what is happening these days online and what's going on with Gaga, if she is playing the Superbowl but even more important to me is if she has seen through her own personal (or personnel) blackout and escaped the Hillary clutches. I need to forgive all that stuff myself and buy Joanne so I can hear her new songs. I hope that will be what breaks through this era of suspicion.

There is a president in The Gambia who refuses to leave after losing the election. People have fled to neighboring Senegal fearing violence and Senegal is offering to invade, with the help of an alliance of African nations, to install the elected leader. So they say, anyway, and I think it is supposed to happen the same day Trump is supposed to be inaugurated here. I hope everything goes smoothly, I will just say that, and it is nice to think that we don't have to take the same precautions with Canada or Mexico, but we can also know that no one will ever invade to install Bernie or Jill or whoever "really" won.

I suspect Trump really won and bigger than people know, that Hillary stole a lot of votes from Jill. They certainly tried to say that Russia hacked the election itself in the immediate aftermath and I suspect if they could have gotten that story to "stick" they would flip it to Hillary and they may even try that yet, they've shown they are foolish enough by running her in the first place. But Russia didn't hack the election, if anyone did it was the Democrats, and they still lost.

I know I am being positive about Trump and I think he is starting to deserve it with the nuclear disarming deal. It's not as though I have some new-found faith in Trump, I just have faith in Goodness. It is strange how it came about - with such disgust at how Hillary stole the Primary and was controlling the media to blackout Jill Stein and smear Trump I couldn't find anything else substantially "worse" than that  - even though I am opposed to racism and sexism, and agree that Trump's statements and policies could amount to racism and sexism far too often, the way they portrayed them as Worse than stealing democracy, especially when she is more war-hawkish and frakker-friendly and at best tied with him on other detestable issues, was something that just revealed the extent of their Bias. We watched Hillary steal the primary from Bernie, we were there. To have the government/media/Obama tell us that "fake news" swayed the election when one of the most significant factors, in online debates, was how she stole the primary, just shows how deep they are in their own lies.

They can't see out of the whole they have dug themselves in, it is so deep. And yet there are so many of them in there, it is a giant hole, like those Apocalyptic sinkholes in Texas. So we can all see it a mile off and see it for what it is  - a giant pit -  and we won't fall in again.

Did Trump just fall in? Or will he remake Washington? My faith is in Goodness. I know that he COULD have the Heart, the Love, the Jesus, the POWER, the True Power, to have compassion and Unite the country and the World, and for this he will deserve every one's praise. But if he doesn't, maybe "Washington" is Obsolete. I've been talking about how Standing Rock can supplant the US Government as an incorruptible, collective, volunteer government where our "real" one is Corrupt  - backed by the People through Donation and Participation and Marshalling and Caring for the Veterans better than the "Real Government" is doing.

As I've said for years,. the only Real Authority is taking care of people.

So having well cared-for people as your responsibility is real Power. Having oppressed people is a liability. There are ways, green energy, weed, clean water, that can free EVERYONE, every person on the planet, from oppression. We can make it where No Place is a Bad Place to live - I was going to exclude naturally inhospitable places like deserts but the truth is we can start living there, too, in domed cities or new home models and networks of cave-tubes, like ants - once we start to work collectively.

We can Make America Great Again and Make Everywhere Great Again, all at the same time, so there will be none of our current problems at all. It's a macrocosm level of what we do on a microcosmic level as individuals, with forgiveness - of ourselves and others, of those around us. This actually leads to the bravery to be more open with each other and our environment, to see ourselves as all part of the Greatness, instead of making walls and divisions between us.

I know I am being hopeful, so full of light I see nothing but brightness. But I am not being blinded - if injustices are proposed or continued I will stop them however I can and I know we can all stop them together. Light IS Justice, though, and I know the Truth will always come out and Justice will be quicker and surer now than ever, and more and more into the future. No one will be Above the Law, not even Lawmen, but this will restore an Honor and Respect between people that can allow forgiveness and progress.

The message is that we are forgiven, even for the things we feel forsaken for. And we should forgive others, even when they say or do things that we say make them "forsakeable" - because none of us Truly are. The mistakes we make that make others want to justify forsaking us, ostracizing us, or oppressing us, those mistakes are already a punishment enough to us in themselves. It's not our place to judge, it's no one's place but our own, it comes upon us in our hearts but our hearts need love to work at all.

That is why in Oz, the Future, the jail Loves the Prisoner until he is all better.

In a way, the White House is a Jail. We can Love the New Prisoner, Trump, until he is all better. It looks like he may have infrequent conjugal visits so let's have some pity and undertsanding and support, okay?

How would we want to be treated if we were in his shoes, in his chair, at that desk, under his hair?

Let's use this example, of Trump, of Jesus, of you and I, to find forgiveness and Hope even for those who most and least deserve it, from where we sit in  judgement or hang on for mercy.
