American style cold blooded murder entertains the American public
Cold blooded murder in America is as common as mom’s apple pie
By Lynda Carson - November 10, 2026
Oakland, CA - On the news, they say that if it bleeds, it leads. That’s right. The news has become just another form of bloody entertainment to the masses, filing up a half an hour of ‘nightly news’ on TV, with gory stories, cold blooded murders, war, genocide in GAZA, death in ICE detention centers, suicides, plane wrecks, train crashes, mass shootings, police shootings, executions, stabbings, tornados, floods, and fatal car accidents. This has gone on for so long that the public has become totally numb to all the blood shed being televised from the cold hearted streets of America, being dished up to them on a daily basis, like a cold turkey sandwich on rye.
A bloody natural born killer, Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth is facing impeachment for U.S. military boat strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific as death toll passes 200, and other bloody issues such as the illegal war against Iran. Now that is some real entertainment to look forward to, and Pete is the main star attraction offering Jimmy Kimmel some fodder to joke about..

As the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, is facing impeachment in part for the illegal war against Iran, and illegally blowing up boats in the water, killing over 200 people since the convicted felon President Donald J. Trump came into office for a second term, Pete Hegseth is a ‘whacked-out’ trained 'natural born killer' that needs to be stopped.
No doubt, Pete Hegseth, and the convicted felon President Donald J. Trump will both eventually get what they deserve for their crimes against humanity, corruption, and brutal attacks on the American people, and others around the globe.
