Thank you for this historical tour de force of contemporary American history and how it has gone so terribly off the rails. Your excellent, well-documented analysis really connects a lot of troubling dots and ties up many loose ends for me. I hope these startling insights will help to innoculate the minds of our fellow Americans from further infection by this mind-eating, soul-eating slime mold of elite psychopthy, predatory sexual perversion, narcissism and sadism. I will share it widely.

He has ICE in the United States waging war on the American people. He attacked Venezuela to capture its leader and oil. And now he has started a war in the Middle East with a full-out attack—WAR on Iran. How do we put pressure on Congress to impeach this asshole traitor and his co-conspirator cabinet?

Homophobic queers , like Peter Thiel, Scott Bessent, JD Vance,, anti trans Caitlin Jennings, black NAZI's, Mark Robinson, self hating blacks like Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott, Byron Donalds.

Self hating Jews like Stephen Miller and all Jews who surround and support Trump. or is it the NAZIs that are being deceived and used by Trump.

Boggles the mind.

The war on DEI means clearing the record of every fact, every historical tidbit, that isn't white Christian nationalist.

A Christian version of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan, except Islam is not outwardly racist., but racist it is.

Thank you Mr Stewartson, the eradication of what I refer to as the Bamboozled Virus will come about largely because of the dedication of people such as you.

Without their financial abilities, these entities would theoretically remain in the shadows, where they really belong. The poor aren't in power. Thanks, Jim.

You’re right again, Jim, as usual.

There’s a good follow on twitter who has been explaining the slime for years, @JWalters314

He’s shown how far back the slime cabal really goes and it’s quite something.

Another good one is @GeorgeProust who’s been examining things like what really happened and who was behind 9/11.

Sounds nutty but it’s very grounded.

The world seems to be ruled by a bunch of pedophile predators. The ounce of truth in the Q op.

Your writing is a Slime vaccine! Removing the notion that this is all too crazy to be true. Showing us exactly how the Slime got its tentacles & how they work together to feed on our fear trauma & confusion. While the hyper normalization from Dems for 10 years is like not wearing a mask at a Slime superspreader. 🔥🐙 Kill it with fire! They are not like us.

Jim, I don't often comment because of how busy I can get. But I want to say thank you for your work. If so many Americans didn't value slime in the form of infotainment, wealth-tainment, celebrity-tainment, influencer-tainment, sports-tainment, political posturing without doing anything meaningful-tainment, scroll-tainiment, rage-tainment, number-of-followers-tainment and similar, we might actually be able to light up every odious drop of this slime.

You don't spend time with whatever-tainment, and I appreciate that.

Yes, hybrid words maybe shunned by some but I view and use them as useful tools to frame complex topics. E.g. Mobligarchs, Asshotarians

Another great essay, Jim. Now, how do we enlighten the Democratic Party and get them off the "kitchen table" issues they believe are key to winning over people? Sure, people care about the cost of living, healthcare, etc. Now, the people need to know that Trump and those in HIS party are the cause of their "kitchen table" pain and worry. And it's going to get much worse if THEY—the real billionaire, swamp slime bags—are allowed to stay in power.

Ouch! Edifying and quite disturbing. Thank you!

This should be a full-page ad in the New York Times. It will become a full-length movie in a few years -- if we survive that long. Outstanding work, Jim.

The real face of unfettered and deregulated capitalism. A not-so-secret society of extreme narcissists and billionaire loons driving humanity off a cliff... rudderless deviants without empathy or morality. History is full of these characters who lust for power for power's sake. Their extreme wealth leaves them empty, soulless vessels, and it always ends badly. Every century becomes deadlier than the previous. We need to jam the spokes when and if we get the chance to push back. Thanks for shining the light into the darkroom, Jim.

I kinda think “slime” is too whimsical a word for what you’re describing but I totally get it 👏🏻

Excellent historical analysis. How do we stop them?

Interesting way of looking at it. I used to say that the legislative branch had two factions "gray corporatist slime," and "The Taliban," of course these terms are both inaccurate and unfair although the goals of our "Taliban" and the achievements of the one in Afghanistan are fairly similar. But the idea of a slime, pervasive and controlling is something I can actually see.
