Notice: Cease and Desist (DOJ-02262025-003)

Mr. Cann: It has come to our attention at the U.S. Department of Justice that your website, The Other Stuff, contains forty-two articles critical of President Donald J. Trump dating back to 2015. As you are already aware, as evidenced by your article “1984 Again” published on January 21, 2025, Executive Order 16081 makes public criticism of the President a felony punishable by a fine of not less than $10,000, and a sentence of up to five years in prison.

The D.O.J. offers you a grace period of fifteen days, ending on March 13, 2025 to remove all references to President Trump, by name or by inference, from your website. If you fail to comply with this notice, or if you engage in future infractions, you will be called to appear before the American Patriot Tribunal recently convened in Fort Myers, Florida. Legal action will be swift and final.

Sincerely,

Albert D. Kinney
Prosecutor, Grade IV
U.S. Department of Justice

  7. Holy smokes, this is way too prescient… Had to read it twice! Honestly, though, I can see this happening if things turn pear-shaped next year. As much as I love dystopian stories, I’d prefer not to live in one. This is legitimately scary stuff.

    • In dystopian novels, things usually go south in an instant… a bomb in the atmosphere, a pandemic, meteor, etc. This slow-motion descent is trickier. We get used to a bit of dystopia and then it gets worse. Imagine if someone in 2010 could foresee the 2020s. No one would believe them. I have little doubt Trump will be our next president and I honestly believe some version of what I wrote will happen. Maybe not to a two-bit blogger like me, but to a New York Times columnist? Sure.

    • Hi Mike, let me bug you with a question… I just went through the process of rewriting my post “I killed a crow” for a non-wordpress reason. I decided to post the rewrite on wordpress, and then you happened to read it a couple of hours later. Was that story somehow ‘presented’ to you by wordpress or was it just a big coincidence that you saw it at that time? This has happened before and curious if wordpress is somehow acknowledging the fact that I made large changes to the story. Thanks Jeff

      • Hey, Jeff. Yep, I received a WordPress notification that you’d posted the crow story so I popped over here and checked it out as soon as I saw the notification (truly visceral and gripping story, too, and brought back some memories of my youth on the farm).

  10. Anyone remember The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) of the 1940s and 1950s. I think reviving something like that would be Trumps first move. It doesn’t even require legislation, but its effect would be chilling, as many who were accused of being communists or un-American during the HUAC’s reign of terror, especially during the McCarthy era, can testify. Not that Trump would stop there, but it could come into effect on day one of his presidency.

  13. Trump promises a 1-Day blood bath, Heads going to roll, if he wins ’24.

    1)) Returns the US dollar to a commidty gold based currency by closing down the Federal Reserve and negating all US debt owed to those private bank monopolies.

    2)) Ends the Russian/Ukraine War in a day. Here’s the deal: The US pulls out of Nato in exchange that Putin pulls out of the Ukraine.

    3)) Restores the Rights of the States to bureaucratically regulate all intra-State trade and commerce by disbanding all the Federal bureaucracies.

    President Trump does this on Day 1 after sworn into Office, and manages the feathers flying for the next 4 years.
