deja coup 

Deja Coup — the surreal realization that two years to the day after the attempted American Insurrection, the same congressmen who were instrumental in the attack on our democracy successfully made a bid for legitimate power on key congressional committees.

And on January 8th 2023 — two years and two days after the American Inssurection — history rhymed when followers of Jair Bolsonaro followed the same game plan in Brazil attacking their Capitol building as Bolsonaro looked on in safety from Florida eating chicken fajitas. He was later hospitalized for plausible deniability — the political equivalent of a mobster being at a wedding when a major “hit” takes place.

This is the psychological equivalent of a Vietnam era combat veteran being taken deep into a swamp to watch a fireworks display.

Some attribute the world wide rise of a militant and violent right to Steve Bannon; but, others say that he is just a highly mobile pimple on the ass of “this is how it’s always been.”

If you were a writer and submitted this as a plot for a novel; your editor would call you a hack and tell you that your writing was heavy handed.

This is the kind of world we’ve made!
Sung to the theme of the Dione Warwick song: Deja Vu

“Deja Coup could this be a nightmare I once knew
Is it true?
Deja coup could this be a nightmare coming true
Are we screwed?
A two year festering coup
The alt-right pestering you
Deja Coup”

déjà coup

A feeling of having witnessed Trump’s present impeachment before, who incited his diehard supporters-turned-terrorists on January 6, 2021 to help him illegally extend his White House stay for another faux more years.
Other than the audience having zero access to the Pinocchio-in-Chief’s racist and white supremacist tweets, there is a sense of déjà coup at his second impeachment trial, and a feeling of moral bankruptcy plaguing the majority of the GOP members, who are hell-bent to acquit him in spite of his treasonous act.

Word of the Day on July 25, 2026
A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.
1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
