WARMONGER  --  CARTOON AND COMMENTARY BY ROB ROGERS

 

_Trump promised to end foreign wars but he never said anything about
all of his own personal and domestic wars. Now he's renaming the DOD
to reflect his desire to be a military despot.._

RE: WASHINGTON, DC, RESIDENTS PROTEST AGAINST TRUMP
 

_"Several thousand protesters march to oppose Trump's troop deployment
Justice Department data shows violent crime at 30-year low in D.C D.C.
Attorney General files lawsuit against troop deployment, citing
unconstitutionality
[link removed]…

Not half true. The protest on the 6th was advertised for weeks. I met
someone from NH, and a group of 60 that had bussed down from VT posted
pictures. From the videos, it was well over 10,000 of us.

Ignoring crime, is one way to claim he reduced it. Just like Covid.

Understand that MAGA wants women to submit to their husbands. When a
wife pushes back and gets beaten by her husband, this is OK with Trump
and MAGA. I find that repulsive.

RE: RAID OF HYUNDAI EV PLANT IN GEORGIA
 

Immigration issues? Not quite. Der Trumper seeking to punish So.
Korea, a highly reliable ally, for objecting to the size and scope of
the Fat Man's tariffs.

viewed by the Koreans as detrimental to their economy. Alleged
immigration violations a convenient opportunity to express disapproval
of Korean audacity.

_The US Supreme Court doesn't even follow its own laws, aka THE
CONSTITUTION, and has ruled to allow Trump's ICE goons to violate the
rights of Latinos in Los Angeles through illegal mass raids by real
and fake Federal agents. Racial profiling is now the Law of the Land.
No matter, ICE Elmer Fudd says, "Be vewy, vewy quiet. I'm hunting
immigwants."_

RE: NEED I LIST ALL THE REASONS WHY TRUMP SHOULDN'T GET A NOBEL PEACE
PRIZE? 
 

Anyone who would rename the Department of Defense the Department of
War is obviously not interested in peace, but more concerned with war.
That should disqualify him from any consideration for the Nobel Peace
Prize. More like the Nobel War Prize would be the one for Trump.

Barbara Fields

      =====

Thank you for featuring Sidney Blumenthal's article; I hope it's read
before the Nobel nominating body in its entirety, should Trump's name
ever manage to disgrace the list.

Blumenthal's opening lines hit hardest, citing the millions overseas
who were unfortunately first to realize how much of a humanitarian
Trump is not. His are slow, painful war crimes of willful neglect,
tolerance, and contempt.

It's rather appropriate that a few biblical references were included.
The world hasn't known anyone so closely aligned with "the Devil's"
agenda since Hitler. The numbers Trump has already cruelly affected
are staggering. Sure, your run-of-the-mill, insane war criminals like
Putin still persist, but at least they don't go around strong-arming
world leaders for a Nobel Peace Prize nomination. They're content to
simply steal, destroy, and mass murder within drone reach. It takes an
elevated, brazen disdain for one's fellow humans to extort and
manipulate the way Trump does for undeserved honour and fortune. Does
he hope that, if there is a Judgment Day, he'll use his medal as a
bargaining chip in an Art of the Deal with The Almighty?

He's obsessed with recognition from scholars and dignitaries from whom
he will only ever get scorn and ridicule. MAGA's deification of Trump
cannot possibly satisfy; it's child's play to him, knowing they're
gullible enough to accept his lies for the sake of a restored "white"
America. He knows his sycophantic Cabinet flatter him for the sake of
greed and power. But like the biblical devil, he doesn't need
admiration and respect, even if welcome; he wants capitulation,
submission, and fear.

Legacy as a peace maker can't possibly be what this drive is all
about, because he doesn't care about future generations. If he did, he
wouldn't have imperiled their well being, their government, and their
environment.

A Nobel won't undo his 10 years of close association with Epstein,
either. But perhaps, with a Nobel to flaunt (which will promptly
transform into one far better than Obama's), he plans to avoid another
impeachment, or the severity of consequences from state and federal
prosecutions, post-next election -- should he fail to cancel it.

RE: SANDERS BACKS TRUMP PLAN FOR GOVERNMENT STAKE IN INTEL
 

Apparently Bernie can't distinguish between Socialism and State
Capitalism. He should know there can be no socialism without democracy
and no democracy without socialism.

RE: THE MAGA INFLUENCERS REHABILITATING HITLER
 

This bullshit was all over the Hearst-McCormick press in the early
forties. It's taken that long for the people who knew the truth about
Fascism to die off.

Eleanor Roosevelt

      =====

Far-right media figures are aggressively pushing propaganda that
rehabilitates Hitler, wrapping this in provocative revisionism to blur
the line between villain and hero. Prominent influencers—such as
Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Darryl Cooper—are actively
questioning established history, suggesting Hitler has been unfairly
maligned or downplaying his genocide as a “misunderstood” crusade.

This revisionism isn’t fringe anymore. These individuals reach
mainstream audiences through top podcasts and massive social media
followings—turning dangerous narratives into culturally palatable
pitches. Their influence grows as the number of firsthand Holocaust
witnesses dwindles, creating fertile ground to reshape collective
memory and weaken the moral xxxxxx against anti-Semitism.

This trend signals a chilling attempt to unravel our historical
consensus, embolden hate, and reforge identity in service of
authoritarian ideology.

WEBINAR  -  MEET DELIA RAMIREZ, CHAMPION OF THE BLOCK THE BOMBS ACT
 - SEPTEMBER 15  (PEACE ACTION)

 

 

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15TH, 2025 AT 7:30 P.M. ET, 6:30 P.M. CT, 5:30 P.M.
MT, 4:30 P.M. PT

Please join us for a national mobilization call for the Block the
Bombs to Israel week of action, featuring U.S. Representative Delia
Ramirez (D-IL), the sponsor of H.R. 3565 in the House of
Representatives, which aims to provide for a limitation on the
transfer of defense articles and defense services to Israel. Ask your
questions about the legislation and learn how you can help amplify the
call to stop weapons sales to Israel.

Next week, Peace Action, along with dozens of other organizations, is
coordinating a NATIONAL DAYS OF ACTION TO BLOCK THE BOMBS TO ISRAEL,
culminating on the United Nations’ International Day of Peace,
Sunday, Sept. 21st.

The National Days of Action to Block the Bombs to Israel builds on the
escalating pressure we’ve worked on all summer, from No Kings Day
and Good Trouble Lives On actions, emergency protests against the
illegal Israeli and US bombings of Iran, ongoing actions to end the
genocide in Gaza, and bird-dogging members of Congress around the
country over the August recess.

WHAT BETTER WAY TO KICK THIS WEEK OFF THAN BY HEARING FROM ONE OF
CONGRESS'S STAUNCHEST PRO-PEACE PROPONENTS?
[[link removed]]

DELIA RAMIREZ IS A STALWART FIGHTER FOR WORKING-CLASS PEOPLE AND FOR
PEACE. Most importantly, she’s a fighter for people over the
Pentagon, recently telling us, “The Pentagon is the only federal
agency to have never passed an audit. We must recognize that
unquestioned defense budget increases come at the expense of working
families, where Republicans question where every penny and dime of
domestic spending for our social safety net goes.”

SHE IS ALSO THE LEAD CHAMPION OF THE BLOCK THE BOMBS TO ISRAEL ACT IN
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, a bill that would proactively block the
Trump administration from delivering additional major US weapons to
Israel – including bombs, tank rounds, and artillery shells – all
of which it has already used in its mass killing of Palestinians,
including thousands of innocent civilians and children in Gaza. This
bill currently has 41 additional co-sponsors, and we’ll discuss
ongoing strategies both in Congress and at the grassroots level to
grow that number even further.

AS IF ALL THIS WEREN’T ENOUGH, _DELIA RAMIREZ HAS A 100% PRO-PEACE
VOTING RECORD_ WITH PEACE ACTION.

At a recent outing in New Orleans, Rep. Ramirez proclaimed, _“The
opposite of war isn’t its absence. It’s the transformation and
creation of something new. We are creation people… and we are part
of a creation movement building forward.”_

We’re thrilled to invite you, as a Peace Action supporter, to be a
part of this transformation and creation of something new – a safer,
saner, more just and peaceful world for everyone. REGISTER HERE TO
