And, of course, Trump is going to be arrested today. Security is high.

There are a lot of pictures out there of him running, and crawling, and trying to evade the hands of justice and all of them are fake. Still photos will be allowed, though I doubt very much if they will let him pose for the camera. No phones, electronic equipment, or video equipment will be allowed. There's talk about issuing a Gag Order. I think that would be amusing, knowing how much the Orange Anus needs to spit turds of the untruth. I didn't see it, but I understand he spewed out something terrible about Alvin Bragg's wife. That doesn't surprise me. I hope a Gag Order is put in place. Believe me, a good time will be had by everyone except his MAGA base.

a Kind of Hush

I suppose, for historical purposes only, I have to mention BLOTUS indicted.

I'm for it, of course, but it means next to nothing. There is not going to be any jail time for this. Hell, he might plead it down to a misdemeanor.


The "man" has done far worse things, none of which has seen the inside of a court room.


Yet.


I mean, we can hope and pray, right?


But to his base, who've completely overlooked him fucking around on his wives [[all of three of them); talking about grabbing women by the pussy, allegations of rape and even being attracted to his own daughter - paying a prostitute hush money to keep quiet so he could win an election is nothing.


For fuck sake, he tried to overthrow an entire government to win an election. Moving $130 big ones around is chump change.


Honestly, in retrospect, it took a very small petty man to take down an entire democracy. That will actually be his legacy. Sure, it was fragile before, but it is on life support. Now it's a big fucking DNR.


I don't really know if I am more afraid of BLOTUS getting re-elected, or DeSantis picking up and finishing the job to strangling this country.


We really need to finalize a plan that gets us out of this country for good if either of those scenarios happen.

Of course, Donald [[the Orange Anus) Trump was charged with breaking the law 34 times yesterday. [[Stop Dancing!). The look on his face as he walked into the courtroom has been described as grim. For possibly the first time in his life he was on a stage that was not of his own design, but one on which he was being displayed like a common criminal. [[Stop Dancing!) Be honest, wasn't there so much joy in seeing his ego brutalized in such a glorious manner?


And Marjorie [[I'm dumber than an inflatable bimbo) T. G. failed horrifically to start a pro-Trump protest. She did manage to initiate a 2 man chant, that survived for 6 seconds. There was no one there to support her, but there were thousands literally blowing whistles and shouting her down. [[Stop Dancing!) She did not look happy heading back to her vehicle. I think she should be glad no one hit her with a rotten tomato.

I’m guessing here, but was Melanie getting her hair done on Tuesday? Or seeing her own lawyer? Making an appointment for a new post-divorce face? Or maybe she couldn’t find her ‘I don’t Care, Do U?’ jacket?

Marjorie “Large Marge” Taylor Greene raced to New York for the arraignment—because she heard there were cameras there—and puked up some nonsense comparing Thing 45 to Nelson Mandela and Jesus Christ on Arraignment Day. My question: what were the names of the porn stars Mandela and Jesus paid off? Sidenote: Though she showed up at what she thought was going to be a fun rally supporting her Traitor Savior, Marge was run off by a crowd of New Yorkers calling her every name under the sun.

So Trump's lawyers begged and pleaded with the judge to make sure he wouldn't have to have a mugshot taken. Then today they sent out a fundraising letter asking MAGAts to buy that t-shirt with this fake mugshot on it for $50 bucks a pop. Yes, a former President is capitalizing on his arrest—let that sink in … they’re using his arrest for paying off a porn star to keep her quiet about their affair to raise money. Of note, the fake mugshot shows his height to be 6’5” tall when we all know he’s only 6’5” when he’s laying down and you’re measuring his golf gut.

Lindsey Graham, Thing 45’s lapdog, looking bleary-eyed and teary eyed on Fox: “We do have one last chance to not become a banana republic. Twenty-twenty-four is the most important election in my lifetime. America literally is at stake as we know it, is at stake as we know it. I’m sorry I’m so upset. But please help [Thing 45]. If you can afford five or 10 bucks, if you can’t afford a dollar, fine. Just pray. Make sure you vote as early as you can in your state. Don’t risk anything anymore. Vote as soon as you can. Pray for this country. Pray for this president. And if you’ve got any money to give, give it. Let’s stand up for this president, let’s stand up for this country, and let’s don’t take this crap anymore. We all can help.” Is it just me or does she sound like a sad lonely high school girl begging the quarterback to pay attention to her?

Reba McEntire, country music superstar who says she tries to stay out of politics, on being “disappointed” in the anti-drag bill recently signed into law in Tennessee: “I wish they would spend that much time and energy and money on feeding the homeless children. We’ve got a real problem in this country, and to be worrying about men wanting to dress up as women? God bless ’em to wear those high heels—I feel for ’em. But let’s center our attention on something that really needs attention.” Trouble is, like guns and the border and fentanyl and inflation, the GOP has no answers, so they use fear as a weapon … fear of drag queens and transgender Americans … and women who want to make their own healthcare choices. Don’t let fear win.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, adulterer, GOP stripper and former lawyer, talking about New York City and Alvin Bragg: “New York is now the likes of Will Smith, I am Legend. It’s a zombie apocalypse. People are running around. They’re afraid to go on the subways, afraid to walk to school or go to work, get on the busses because it’s rampant with crime. It’s filthy and disgusting. There’s no quality of life. And this guy just lights a revolving door. He reduces felonies to misdemeanors. He doesn’t go after violent criminals. It’s a complete disaster. He should be thrown out of office. For all of these reasons, he has completely failed to serve his oath and his office by making New York a safe place to live. He has not. He is endangering women, children, families, communities, putting businesses out of work because he is not doing his job. Instead, he’s hell bent on persecuting [Thing 45].” But the pussy grabbing adulterer who pays off porn stars so that news of the affair he had with her while his third wife with whom he cheated with on his second wife with whom he cheated with on his first wife doesn’t find out? Take a seat Karen, the manager’s a little busy right now.

Michaela Jaé Rodriguez, trans actress, on Zaya Wade’s transition and her family’s support: “I saw Dwyane and Gabrielle recently and had to let them know personally, ‘Thank you.’ Because there’s a stigma within the African American community. And it’s so beautiful to see a Black family like theirs speak about their child, Zaya, with love, and for them to say, ‘I’m here for my child, and anything that tries to come against her, it shall not prosper. She will prosper.’ Zaya is the hope and beacon for a lot of trans youth that will be looking up to her when she gets to my age … which is very young, just to let you know.” I understand that some people don’t ‘get’ transgender because they believe gender is between your legs only, but can’t we just have a little understanding and respect for those who make the choice to step up and out, especially in the climate that is America right now, to be their true selves? Can’t we stand with them in their struggle and their journey to live their own lives. Respect isn’t a hard thing to give.

Lauren Boebert, uneducated criminal GOP Representative, on her teenage son knocking up his underage girlfriend: “Obviously, I’m a Christian, and there are standards that we like to uphold, but none of us do it perfectly. One of the biggest things that I look to is ‘him who knows to do right and doesn’t, it’s sin.’ And I mean, there’s things all throughout the week that I know is [sic] right to do. And sometimes, I don’t do them. And so we can nitpick what the Bible says is right and wrong, but I think just having that heart posture of wanting to serve God and do the right thing is so important. So certainly there are some beliefs that you, like wait, this isn’t exactly right and exactly what we have taught you, but this is where we’re at, and we’re gonna teach you about redemption and how to move forward.” Yes, this devout Christian thinks you can pick and choose the words of God you choose to follow. But then when you consider she was a high school dropout after getting knocked up by her boyfriend, how could her son possibly do any different; he was raised to do this.

Stormy Daniels, on the indictment and why she’s not frightened of facing Thing 45, AKA Orange Mushroom Dick, in court: “It’s vindication. But it’s bittersweet. He’s done so much worse that he should have been taken down [[for) before. I am fully aware of the insanity of it being a porn star. But it’s also poetic; this p**** grabbed back. I’ve seen him naked. There’s no way he could be scarier with his clothes on. I’m not afraid, I have nothing to hide, and I look forward to telling everybody what I know.” Truth. The pussy grabbed back.

And down in Tennessee the Republicans kicked two black Democrats out of the legislature because they attended an anti-gun rally. Three Democrats actually attended the gun-control event, but they Republicans let the white Democrat stay. Those two men have now stepped onto the National stage. Those stupid Republicans? Well, they since they don't make mistakes they're going to be eating shit sandwiches until they get voted out of office.


And the Clarence Thomas shit? He's now saying those 20 years for free vacations to expensive places were a personal gift, that they had nothing to do with the fact they were given to him by a white, ultra-conservative billionaire. I'm thinking Thomas is going to end up eating more shit sandwiches than those Tennessee lawmakers.

Vote. Vote Blue. And Here's Why, AGAIN!

It’s been a few weeks since we checked in on the GOP and their special brand of bigotry and ignorance, so let’s dive right in … NORTH DAKOTA The state GOP voted last week to raise their own meal reimbursements to $45 a day. This happened less than two weeks after that same state GOP blocked a bill to provide free school lunches to low-income students. Tell me again how the GOP is pro-family or pro-children. TENNESSEE GOP lawmakers have expelled two Democrat Representatives, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, from the House for taking part in a peaceful demonstration for gun reform that was staged in the aftermath of a Nashville school shooting that left six people dead. A third Democrat, Gloria Johnson, was barely saved from expulsion. Of note, the two Democrats expelled were two Black men, while the white woman was saved. FLORIDA Ron DeSantis signed HB 543 into law this week that will allow Floridians to carry a concealed firearm without the need for a permit. People can now carry concealed firearms without going through the background screening and training that is currently required to have a concealed carry license. More guns. Less control. IDAHO The state legislature has passed the nation’s first law that makes it illegal for minors to travel out-of-state to get an abortion without parental consent. Idaho already has a near-total abortion ban in place but neighboring Washington and Oregon allow minors to get an abortion without their parent’s consent, so Idaho will restrict its residents from interstate travel for abortion access. Why not just lock up all pregnant women until they give birth? FLORIDA A survey finds that among Florida’s incoming college freshmen, dissatisfaction with Governor Ron DeSantis’s education policies runs deep … deep enough in some cases to make them look for college opportunities in another state. Intelligent.com surveyed over 1,000 Florida students, including 783 still in high school and 364 current undergrads and found that 91% of prospective college students disagree with the governor’s policies and that 1 in 8 graduating high school students won’t attend college in Florida due to education policy in the state. Florida will become a ghost town save for the elderly and the fascists. MISSOURI The Missouri House has put forth new budget bills that would eliminate state funding for libraries across the state. The House Budget Committee has proposed to cut the entire $4.5 million budget slated for Missouri libraries last week after the American Civil Liberties Union [ACLU] filed a lawsuit to overturn a new Missouri law that bans “explicit sexual” images from all school materials, including library books. The law, passed last year, does not apply to written descriptions of sex or sexual acts; only photos, drawings, videos and other visual depictions are prohibited but librarians and other school officials face up to a year in jail or a $2,000 fine for violating the policy. It might be easier just to ban all books. MONTANA Republicans in the state Legislature are trying to change the rules for next year’s Senate primary to make it easier to defeat Democrat Senator Jon Tester and win back the Senate majority. A bill moving through the statehouse would change the structure of the election from the party primary system currently in place to a jungle primary in which the top two vote-getters advance to the general election regardless of party. The move would essentially box out Libertarian candidates who would likely vote Democrat ensuring a GOP victory. If they can’t win fairly, they change the rules and cheat. MISSOURI State Attorney General Andrew Bailey has issued an emergency regulation regarding gender transition interventions on minors and launched a website to report allegations of malpractice at gender clinics in the state: “It’s about protecting children for me. We’ve got to inject some sanity into this conversation. Gender is an objective reality defined by biology, in the same way that gravity is an objective reality. It is unhealthy to deny objective reality.” He really only cares about cis gender children, to be fair. Trans kids are less than. FLORIDA As happens in fascist states, the rules are changed to enable the fascist to do as they please. This week the Florida Senate scheduled a change via committee vote of the “Resign to Run” law. This is certainly meant to allow Ron DeFascist to keep his job as governor should he fail in his attempt to take the White House in 2024. ON THE UPSIDE … SCOTUS This week the U.S. Supreme Court refused to intervene in an ongoing case involving West Virginia’s law banning transgender girls from participating in girls’ sports teams at school. Conservative Justices Samuel Alito and the hopefully soon-to-be-impeached and removed from the bench Clarence Thomas dissented. The court’s action came on its “shadow docket” so-called because decisions are made without full briefing or argument and decided with little or no explanation. Some 19 states have enacted laws like West Virginia’s anti-transgender law but no appeals court has yet ruled on the question. WISCONSIN Last week voters gave control of the state’s highest court to liberals for the first time in 15 years after Milwaukee County Judge Janet Protasiewicz defeated former Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly in a race that served as a referendum on the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. The tide is changing in Wisconsin; let’s hope that trend keeps moving forward. NEW JERSEY Democrat Governor Phil Murphy signed Executive Order No. 326 establishing New Jersey as a safe haven for gender-affirming health care by directing all state departments and agencies to protect all persons, including health care professionals and patients, against potential repercussions resulting from providing, receiving, assisting in providing or receiving, seeking, or traveling to New Jersey to obtain gender-affirming health care services. “Across the nation, we are witnessing attacks led by certain states that seek to undermine the equality, dignity, and safety of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially transgender and non-binary youth. As leaders, our greatest responsibility is ensuring that every person we represent, regardless of their gender identity or gender expression, is entitled to respect, fairness, and freedom. We will continue to uphold these principles in New Jersey and support every person’s right to live freely and authentically by making our state a safe haven for those seeking or providing gender-affirming health care.” Finally at least one safe haven for our trans brothers and sisters. Pay attention … vote … speak up … vote … because if we don’t all stand together one day all of this country will be like Florida and Tennessee and Missouri and Idaho, and the GOP and the traitors come for us all.

And now that Easter is past, I'm sure the political scene will return to normal. I will tell you, I got a little sick of Republicans posting their phony religious comments on Twitter. We know exactly what's in their dirty little hearts and Christianity has nothing to do with it. They do point out the gullibility of Christians in that all some of them need to see or hear is a statement of Praise for them to believe Republicans are divinely inspired. Again, we know that's not true, but they are very good at manipulation. Their Faithless slight of hand snockers true Believers every time.


Finally, shall we celebrate the shit show that is swirling around Clarence Thomas. Every time he opens his mouth he proves how selfish and self-centered he is, and the more dirt that comes out about his white, neo-Nazi billionaire owner the worse Clarence looks. Isn't it nice to know that he's fuming because people are calling him every name he derides in not only People of Color but people in general. He is trash boiled over.

And didn't it seem as though this past weekend was politically very quiet? Perhaps because last week was filled with the Clarence Thomas bombs bursting in air all over the place, and the Tennessee Republicans kicking out 2 black Democrats, and the Trump judge in Texas trying to ban mifepristone. Is it me, or does it seem that every time a Republican turns around he's getting smacked up the side of his head by a 2 X 4 of reality? And the Cracker Jack Crazies are having the same problem. Frankie Graham telling his base that he believes all buildings should be adorned with a Cross is... well, shall we say his comment smacks of religious authoritarianism. He believes his beliefs are being attacked and that's simply wrong; their inability to evolve is simply making them less and less important to daily life. Relevance relies on change, something he is incapable of doing.

Robert Kennedy Jr. announced on not-so-good Friday that he's running for president as a Democrat. He's a nincompoop.
I became aware of his nincompoopery quite a few years ago when I read an article he wrote defending his cousin Michael Skakel, who was convicted of murdering Martha Moxley when they were teenagers. I was shocked The Atlantic would publish an article that was absolute glop and assumed they used it because of the Kennedy name.
Kenney is 69 years old, has plenty of money, and is on his third wife.[[four days after he filed for divorce from his second wife she committed suicide). He has six children.

He is well known as an environmental lawyer and won many awards for his work in that area. He fought pollution created by factory farms and damage to the environment caused by the U.S. military. He has worked with indigenous rights organizations. The list goes on and on. I wish I could stop right here and say that he's well educated and his work defending the environment is so great that it excuses any stupidity he committed. I'm afraid that's not the case.
Kennedy was also well known for his drug use in his youth. When he was an assistant District Attorney in Manhattan, he was arrested for possession of heroin.
Sadly, he has achieved renown as an anti-vaxxer, beginning with blaming childhood vaccines for autism, ADHD, and other maladies. He spread misinformation about the COVID vaccine and compared COVID restrictions to Nazi Germany. He claimed that if people didn't get vaccinated, then Bill Gates would cut off their access to money and they would starve. I haven't seen that happen.
I don't know if the Kennedy name has the cachet it used to have. We're still sad that this man's Uncle John and his father, Robert, were assassinated, but we also know now about Uncle John's many affairs and his naked pool parties at The White House that included smoking weed. Younger people might not be as interested in the Kennedy family as we were. I don't think being a Kennedy can do as much for Robert Jr. as it might have in the past,
It's possible he'll appeal to some Republicans though, who could consider crossing partly lines for an anti-vaxxer.

As many of you already know, a principal here in the great mediocre Fascist state of Florida lost his job recently because of a complaint by a parent after students were allowed to see images of this famous statue, which students have seen for years.

Thanks a whole helluva lot, Ronald, for creating this miserable environment in Florida's schools.

So, quietly overnight, Ronnie DeSantis signed state legislation that will satisfy anti-abortion advocates in spite of the fact that 70% of Americans want the government to stay out of their personal lives. Oh, and Ronnie has yet to announce that he's running for president. Interestingly enough, I see a number of pundits wondering if he understands that Florida is a state unto itself, that like Las Vegas, what happens in Florida stays in Florida. He thought he was making a name for himself taking on Disney, wrong. Disney turned around, squatted down, and shit a big turd on Ronnie D. Did he learn anything? Absolutely not. There is very little beef in Meatball Ron, just a lot of filler. Of course, being a Republican, he will never learn.

Dan Crenshaw, Texas GOP Congressman, jumped on the Boycott Bud Light bandwagon in a video and showed us all that he’s just another clueless fool: “Saw Bud Light’s stupid ad campaign, so guess what we’re going to do? We’re going to throw out every single Bud Light we’ve got in the fridge. Alright, well I guess that was easy.” Oops, no Bud Light in the fridge to throw out because it was filled with Karbach beer … owned by Bud Light parent company Anheuser-Busch. I was gonna make a joke about the eye patch hindering his ability to see his own ignorance, but I won’t. Oops.

Ron DeSantis, on being Bitch Slapped by Mickey: “Now that the Disney has reopened this issue we’re not just going to void the development agreement they tried to do. We’re going to look at things, like taxes on the hotels, we’re going to look at things like tolls on the roads, we’re going to look at things like developing some of the property that the district owns. They are not superior to the people of Florida. So come hell or high water we’re going to make sure that policy of Florida carries the day. They can keep trying to do things. But ultimately we’re going to win on every single issue involving Disney, I can tell you that.” Let me allow the Orlando Sentinel to respond, as they did in an editorial this week, asking DeSantis to go back to: “Running a massive state government where people are dying every day of drug overdoses and mass shootings that you barely acknowledge. Where school boards across the state are grimly awaiting the final price tag of the economically reckless voucher bill you just signed. Where insurance rates are skyrocketing and damage claims from back-to-back hurricanes are being summarily denied. Where, every day, we’re discovering more cracks your machinations have inflicted on the fundamental integrity of Florida’s own government. If Disney executives had responded to DeSantis in the same vengeful vein—by pulling back even a small fraction of the resources the company has invested in Florida—the economic wreckage could have been massive.” Then the paper Disney’s response to DeSantis “elegant and witty” and said, if anything, DeSantis has created a “situation where Disney has more control, and potentially more secrecy, than it ever did.” Snap.

Lindsey Graham, confirmed bachelor, lying about pro-choice Democrats on Fox News … again: “I’m very pro-life, and I think being pro-life is a winning message. I oppose late-term abortions. I have a bill to set a national minimum standard of 15 weeks. 50 of the 53 European nations ban abortion at 15 weeks. I have an exception for rape, incest, and life of the mother. … The Democratic solution when it comes to abortion is taxpayer-funded abortion up to the moment of birth. That’s barbaric. That’s like China. That’s like North Korea. We can win this issue at the ballot box if we show up with reasonable positions.” You can’t win, ma’am, because you’re a pandering lying twazcock. Pro-life isn’t a winning message; allowing women to make their own choices about their own bodies and their own healthcare without the input of an ambiguously—well not so much—gay, lifelong bachelor and most importantly, South Carolina's Junior Miss, is a winning message. Look at Wisconsin, dumbass.

Will Cain, Fox & Friends host, lying about that protest by Democrats in the Tennessee statehouse: “I’m listening to President Biden, and I’m just trying to understand—and I’m going to feign some inability to understand this because I fully get that the use of protecting democracy or accusing something of being undemocratic is just a proxy for ‘I want you to lose.’ So during January 6th, people condemn-ably rioted and stormed the Capitol and it is described as undemocratic. In Tennessee, people stormed the Capitol, interrupted the democratic process, and used bullhorns. And if you punish them, that’s undemocratic. It’s undemocratic as long as it is in disfavor with Joe Biden.” Will? You’re an ass. On 1/6 violent extremists broke into the US Capitol building; broke into private offices of Senators and Congresspeople; some of them were arm; some of them smeared their feces along the walls; some of them attacked police officers; some of them stole private property. In Tennessee, a peaceful protest occurred with no violence, no injury, no death, but one young Congressman was kicked out of the statehouse because he used a bull horn. One of these things is nothing like the other and for you to suggest they are the same is so totally Fox News Lies of you.

And the NRA is having a convention in Indiana. Donald, the Orange Anus, spoke, outlining his fascist agenda and the crowd loved him. They cheered. They like to call themselves Conservatives, but they're not, baby fascists is more like it.


Mike, is my slip showing, Pence also spoke... and was booed. Does anyone think he learned anything? Probably not. That would mean he was able to learn, something he is incapable of doing. He no doubt gathered with his advisors afterward for one of those Holy Shit discussions.


Finally, Mike Pompeo told the nation he was not going to be running for president. He actually muttered some inanity about hating to disappoint certain people... You'll notice, he didn't say what country those people lived in.

And, for those who haven't been paying attention, the justices of the Supreme Court punted on the use of Mifepristone rather than rule. Instead of the punting, many are focused on Alito's dissent. He was not too kind to the female justices for not agreeing with him. No surprise there. He's an asswipe, always has been. For those who haven't realized it yet, he does believe women are subservient, and I'm certain to have to treat three of them as equals galls the hell out of him. Now, isn't that nice?


And evidently quite a few people don't want Trump to run for president. An AP poll, which is somewhat reliable, noted that almost half of the Republican part understood his running for president was a bad idea. About 60% of Republicans want him to run. Without him they are nothing. What they don't realize is that with him they are worse than nothing.

Liar Liar

You know, Jon Stewart had it right back in 2004, when on the air on CNN, he called Tucker Carlson a "dick". Honestly, truer words have never been spoken.
Compared to that statement, even "the sky is blue" would be called into question as fact.
I mean, even in my blog image, Carlson is showing his audience his length of this dick.......if it were twice the actual size.
But Carlson is a dick. Was one. Always will be.
Two-faced and only out for himself. I think his show, his books, his tweets and his group SMS texts show that. He's loyal to no one but Tucker. This is what you call a charlatan. .....and that's the nicest thing I'd call him.
And he's out of a job. You know for all of a week. Some other righter winged outlet will snag him. It'll be a coup for them. Fuck if BLOTUS is back on the campaign trail, it would not surprise him who his communications director might be.
The reality was: Carlson cost Fox almost a billion dollars. More than, if you add in legal fees. Sure, others had their hand in it, but others were not the first person on Dominion's witness list to testify. Only Fucker. Of course, they had that SMS thread where he clearly called out the lies they were telling. There was no way around it - hence the settlement.........hence the firing.
They can say, "parted ways", but if he had quit, he would have signed off his last show. That did not happen. They canned his ass.
Of course there are theories to why. I mean, I just shared mine. [[I'm totally right, btw....). But someone else's made me laugh and laugh and laugh. It would be the second one.

It's Fox, so I'm not sure there's a thing as "too racist". I mean ask any of their Black anchors.






I'll wait, while you find one.






Are you back yet? No? How about now? Still need more time? Take all that you need. But I can't wait forever.
Allegedly Carlson was the highest rated show on cable. More than anything on ESPN....and possibly anything on Starz!
But having that audience with that kind of lunatic is fucking scary, as we saw. You don't just fire someone who is the highest rated, which means, where you get all your advertising dollars. You fire them because they're a bigger liability than those dollars could bring in.
I mean, what the fuck is Kevin McCarthy & Co. going to do now? He was giving Fucker the tapes to January 6th to spin things a different way.
I'd say good riddance [[to you too Don Lemon!), but these shells of men are nothing more than a personification of what is going on in the country. They just bring hate out in the open and make it acceptable. They pander. They scream. They raise the advertising rates.
Hopefully he has a strong non-compete and we will have a year or so break from the d-bag.


Hey - a boy can dream.

There didn't seem to be a lot happening politically. DeSantis is going to announce his candidacy for president sometime soon. Asa Hutchinson [[another old man) announced his. Tim Scott, who announced his earlier, is making the rounds spitting out bullshit. Let's see... Niki Haley criticized Ronnie D for his attack on Disney, saying governments should not try of control corporations. A few more asswipes endorsed Trump rather than Meatball Ron. That's not going to happen. We will have to wait until the primaries to find out who's actually going to go against Biden. This will be interesting.

Trump's rape trial continues. A guilty verdict will only solidify his MAGA base even tight around him. He will most likely get the nomination, but not after a bloody fight that will tear the Republicans to pieces and then, as is his standard procedure, he will shriek election fraud. This will continue with many Republicans until we start smacking them in the face and even then it will take quite a number of smacks before they begin to grasp the truth.


Evidently one of Tucker Carlson's ugly Tweets has seen the light of day. He didn't like the way white men fought while beating up what they claimed to be an Antifa youth. He did, however, enjoy watching the young man get beaten up, as though he deserved to be beaten. My, Tucker is really an ugly person inside, isn't he? Of course, many of us knew this already. He's the mail version of the selfish, spoiled brat who hates everyone and everything that doesn't see him as being special.
