Fate is a fickle mistress.
This idiom was unable to be attributable to anyone in particular. Mentioned having a hand this quote were William Shakespeare as well as Mary Shelley. Alas both were summarily dismissed following a lazy, halfhearted interweb search as to its origin.
Plus, I made up the word “Unhelpable” in the title. Still, none of those trivial touchstones are as egregious as the shenanigans going on in local, state, and federal guvment agencies, today.
A few months ago you may have learned of shady goings-on in a purgatory named Minnesota in general, Minneapolis in particular, on this blog site. Of course some of this information squirted out via equally halfhearted news stories in dribs and drabs for a few years. But they, too, were reported in such a way as my earlier idiom search.
Be that as it may, “the Unhelpable” mentioned herein consist of arrogant, weasely, self-centered, anointed, and greasy politicians who find glee in antagonizing the proverbial ‘hand that feeds them.’
That hand belongs to “taxpayers.” To be precise, taxpayers are people who pay taxes. ‘Nuff said.
People who pay taxes are those legal citizens – otherwise know as those who are natives, whose financial status is derived from legal employment and legitimate means, and meets predefined criteria for household income.
Too many overly-smart pundits are quick to point out that everyone pays taxes; they do not. Sure, if you buy goods, fuel, or nearly anything else where money is exchanged for trade, you will like pay some form of tax. But that sales tax is different from income tax inasmuch as income tax is calculated on income. Hence, the name.
Simply put, if you cannot legally work as a non-citizen, you pay no income taxes since you have no legitimate income. It’s all based upon your Social Security Number (SSN); if you’re not considered an American citizen you can’t get a SSN. Amen.
Onto the next critical fact.
If you believe that a biological boy or man can become pregnant and have babies, I have money for a wager you’ll likely lose.
Males of any species are incapable of conceiving children because males do not have ova (eggs); only females have ova. It doesn’t really matter what you think you are, what you want to be, or which pronoun with which you identify, you’re out of luck in the children bearing department if you are male.
I dare say it’s a good thing someone who is delusional enough to believe males are able to produce offspring are incapable of understanding the mechanics of the human body, reproduction parts, or even how to change their own drool cup.
Speaking of mental illness, our last fact of this week’s adventure involves a modicum of sanity which, I’m delighted to report, will soon hopefully be rectified one way or another. This course correction is apparently beginning at the federal guvment level.
It seems as though the only thing this apparent course correction needed was the installation of adults at the administrative level. Realizing our nation has been hemorrhaging cold, hard cash from every guvment level, the ersatz Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was cobbled together to uncover and ultimately plug sizable moolah leaks from porous guvment capital ineptitudes.
A union created by the collaboration of President Donald J. Trump (47) along with Elon Musk, this ‘kinda’ federal guvment entity was cobbled together to identify and end the suspected fraud being conducted inside the marbled Halls of Congress. And boy, was it massive.
That sacred venue has always been considered off-limits to the hoi polloi by those known as ‘anointed politicians.’ They are anointed because they think they’re special. They’re not, though.
Their magic that is conjured up by them happens with debates, raucous shouting, charts, witnesses, and bargaining, all of which is largely for elementary-style show-and-tell exhibitions scripted for television.
It’s actually often behind the scenes, though, where the shady stuff is produced – much like sausage is made. Hand shakes, winks, nods, “special” gifts, and promises paid-on-delivery regularly become part of deals that shape and affect their constituency. And that’s awfully unsettling.
But these backroom shenanigans, although well known around Capitol Hill, are usually ‘uncovered’ with Congressional and Senatorial colleagues over-emoting replete with audible gasps, faux fainting, and grasping ones pearls, in front of cameras. Oh, the humanity.
DOGE’s noble efforts easily exposed many billions of dollars of fraud and waste, all voted on and approved by Congress. After all, Congress controls the checkbook. Revealing all the palm grease and aid for disadvantaged children, non-English speakers overseas, plus needy illegal families living in the United States, opened an ugly, smelly can-o’-worms.
Stench therefrom demonstrated how simply playing ‘hide the bologna’ was when hundreds of professional thieves known as Congressional Representatives put their hearts and minds into projects that stick it to the taxpayers – the people who actually fund these grifts.
Feigning ignorance once the rocks under which they are hiding are upended, these holier-than-thou types quickly change the narrative to blaming those on the other side of the aisle. And why not?
Sleazeballs Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Elizabeth Warren, Ilhan Omar, Eric Swalwell, Nancy Pelosi, Charles Schumer, Bernie Sanders, Rashida Tlaib, along with a gaggle of other greasy America-haters, are currently busy contriving excuses for the graft and corruption they helped perpetuate in an attempt to sucker, uh, secure votes for Democrats in upcoming elections.
Independent video journalists have been inundated with work making the rounds throughout Minnesota, California, Maine, Michigan, and Illinois while gathering eye-opening evidence of unimaginable thievery from hard working Americans to benefit arrogant illegals and terrorists abroad.
A recent shakeup at the U.S. Department of Justice helped open doors to literal mountains of hard cash being spirited away to Third World toilets such as Somalia – home to Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar – whose district in Minnesota gives boatloads of hard currency to its 84,000 Somali residents.
What could possibly go wrong?
Let me give you a clue.
Many of those America-hating Somalis have opened shell companies for child care, home care for the elderly, transportation services for the home-bound, and something called a “Learing Center” whose employees misspelled on a prominent sign. Imagine the education attendees receive there.

The painful part is that billions upon billions of tax dollars were given to fund these front operations. The money, however, wound up being allegedly funneled to terrorist camps in Africa – a breeding ground for animals with a penchant to kill Americans for simply being Americans in America.
Sure, it sounds crazy, but only to sane people. Sane people applauded DOGE’s efforts to stymie pouring unaccountable billions of American dollars to injure or kill as many Americans as possible.
In fact, a fraudster was convicted and sentenced to 41-years in prison for stealing tons of folding money from these charitable efforts. Oddly absent were news stories about this attempt to seek justice. Ponderous, indeed.
On the other hand, protests, rallys, marches, attempted riots caused by the very representatives elected to prevent this mayhem occurred to demonstrate that the powers-that-be were not on your side. In fact, they hate you.
Asserting all this out-of-control fiscal beating was good for the working population, it sailed smoothly until Donald Trump was reelected in 2024. Not unlike vermin scurrying for safety from a sinking ship, Democrats pretended what hard working, honest constituents needed was a more thorough beating.
Unfortunately, the familiar Blue states are hell-bent on keeping their pick pocketing Congressmen, Senators, gubenors, mayors, and local representatives greedy. The making of the perfect storm.
Which summarily leads us back to our fickle mistress.
The rest of the country – the Red states – have simply had enough, and have been morphing back into the once great America: the one that inspired the infamous Make America Great Again (MAGA) slogan.
We’re a few short months away from midterm elections. Some will be for gubenors, some Senators, some for Congressional Representatives, while others will be for mayors.
Now is the time for deciding in which direction you’d like to see your 250 year-old nation head. Teetering on the precipice of self-destruction, our nation needs a thorough, honest look into the mirror.
Otherwise, we’ll all be beyond the unhelpable point of history.
