Wednesday Stuff

Ayman Mohyeldin sitting in for Chris Hayes reports on Spray-Tan Satan deciding not to end Iranian civilization for another two weeks...so, I guess Cheetoh Hitler has a chapter in “The Art Of The Deal” about giving Iran an excuse to now extort $2 million from every ship passing through the Strait of Hormuz – what a financial genius! No wonder just about all of his businesses have gone bankrupt...kudos to the 70 U.S. House Dems in particular calling for the removal of this genocidal lunatic, as well as Ed Markey in the Senate...good job by Ayman to revisit all of the times TACO Trump bailed on his self-imposed deadlines to inflict global carnage; I mean, yeah, it’s a good thing his threats weren’t realized, but he shouldn’t be in a position to issue those threats in the first place (and I never thought we’d be in a circumstance where we needed to thank Pakistan for preventing Armageddon, but I never thought we’d be in a position for a lot of this insanity)...Ayman speaks with reporter David Rohde, and I would also say that we have a marriage, so to speak, of “infinite immorality with infinite power” as Robert Malley correctly puts it...and by the way, the fact that he called off this threat to extinguish Iran "civilization" doesn't mean that #47 still shouldn't be impeached, because HE FREAKING STILL SHOULD!! (more on trying to remove him is next)...



...and David Pakman lets us know that, indeed, more folks are calling for the 25th Amendment aimed at the Tangerine Toddler, including Illinois guv J.B. Pritzker, along with Ro Khanna (and as Pakman says, there is zero chance that will happen with this cabinet, and about the same possibility that anyone from the “R” team will call for that)...and yeah, I know some of this is political posturing by folks looking for the Dem nomination for prez in ’28...but can you seriously blame them??!! You can also add the NAACP to the folks calling for #47 to toddle off to Mar-a-Lago once and for all so he can stage his hissy fits while watching Fix Noise and chowing down on a happy meal so there’s no chance that he could actually blow up the world...



..and this DW report from Anthony Howard gives us more on this White House using religious references, and how Pope Leo pushes back...clip includes those “whited sepulchers” laying hands on Pumpkin Pol Pot...hearing SecDef Kegseth making religious references makes me want to puke in my mouth...didn’t know His Holiness was a registered Repug at one time, though I’m sure he would reconsider that now (if I may venture a guess here)...the fact that Meth Head Bannon spoke out against the Pope definitely counts favorably towards the latter as far as I’m concerned (Vatican authority Massimo Faggioli is interviewed)...I agree that, given that Leo has come from a strife-torn region in this hemisphere, he’s not likely to back down against the murderous rantings of Mango Mussolini...



Update: And why am I not surprised by this?

...well, seeing as how it appears that Our Orange Lunatic isn’t talking about “the big funny” lately, maybe I can now focus on some domestic stuff...I’ve been meaning to get to this item from Kyle Kulinski where the CEO of Five Guys gave out $1.5 million in bonuses because he didn’t want anyone to go all Luigi Mangione on his ass (allegedly!)...I mean, yeah, good behavior by the Five Guys head but for questionable reasons I guess (and I also think the guy in charge was nodding off a bit if he thought his site wouldn’t get crashed over the free burger promotion)...and no, about Mangione, I don’t condone violence against anybody – GMAFB! (NSFW/H)...



...and Robert Reich tells us about a ballot referendum to end Citizens United in Montana, believe it or not – I’m pretty sure I noted that in the post about the “No Kings” protests on 3/28, but more on that is here...looks like the folks in “big sky country” are trying to curb corporate spending, commendably enough...good point that corporations are indeed created by the states in which they are chartered and can be regulated by the states in which they operate (incorporated usually in Delaware, since laws for that there are relatively easier than elsewhere)...



...and after this recent madness, I’m more in need of another tune this week to mellow out a bit (and posting may get goofed up again, just to let you know).

Tuesday Stuff

Rachel Maddow discusses the lies of the Gropenfuhrer about the Iran war, to say nothing of the slapdash approach by the command individuals in our military, including not notifying Kuwait about the activity of our fighter jets, allowing three of them to be shot down by that country (not blaming the brave rank-and-file folks serving our country, but I only mean to point out that this is the result of all of the firings of command leaders in our services by our ruling regime, namely, that you end up with incompetents taking their places and leaving our military exposed...oh, and SecDef Kegseth just also fired the Army chief of staff in the middle of this Iranian escapade)...one of the awful consequences of this disastrous war is the fact that our military personnel have to be shunted to hotels and elsewhere since their bases are no longer secure...didn’t know that the flunkies in #47’s cabinet were getting the housing from all of the military leaders who were told to “hit the bricks” by our ruling regime of frauds and pretenders...and more than 10K vets lost their homes to foreclosure because our ruling bunch of idiots wrecked a rescue provision in the VA home loan program...I’d heard about the wife of Staff Sgt. Matthew Blank getting detained and sent to an immigrant prison (as well as ICE goons threatening to arrest family members attending ceremonies for basic training graduates) – the depravity and corruption of our ruling regime is truly bottomless (“internal communication failure” on the detentions my ass)...



...and Mike Figueredo lets us know what we’ve likely already guessed, and that is that GOP policy makers are more detached from reality than ever before...Trump is definitely the dumbest *preznit; ”power and stoo-pidity is a deadly combination” indeed...and I’d heard about the business with FEMA’s Gregg Phillips claiming he was teleported (or similar wording) to a Waffle House...and boy, does it ever fit the profile that Phillips is an election denier from not just ’20, but ’16 also (an election that his boss actually won, in terms of the electoral vote anyway, as much as it pains me to admit that)...and it looks like Devin “Don’t Have A Cow” Nunes is apparently blocking Phillips on Truth Septic – pass the popcorn...also, I don’t share Figueredo’s comments about Catholicism, but I have to admit that idiots like Phillips make that topic fair game...more on “flat earther” Kandiss Taylor is here, BTW (“this would be a globe if I were a normal person” for sure)...oh, and I’d forgotten about Big Stupid Head Matt Gaetz, but unfortunately he’s back claiming that humans are having sex with aliens, and as far as I know, none of the aliens are underage (looks like somebody has been “getting his beak wet” in the Absinthe)...and it also looks like the “migrant caravans” are back, because why the hell not as long as we’re replaying Diaper Donnie’s Greatest Hits...next on our hit parade is Nancy Mace, running for governor of South Carolina (and I actually share Figueredo’s sentiment about getting her out of Congress...I know there are nice spots in SC, but overall, the quality of life in that state is utterly awful)...looks like Mace would try to ban “chemtrails”...(uuumm, O-kaaay)...I must’ve missed the memo on the apparently mortal threat from water vapor and ice crystals, but I guess as far as Mace is concerned, the calamitous effects of climate change (including the vanishing Colorado River) as well as pollution in our air, food and groundwater is a-OK...and no report on Repug wackadoodles would be complete without Paula White comparing Dementia J. Trump to Our Lord, and just in time for Easter (and believe me when I tell you that I am indeed offended by White and her garbage)...(NSFW/H)...



...and John and Jayar of The Damage Report given us more fallout from Combover Caligula’s profanity-laden Easter message...when you’ve got Alex Jones, of all people, telling you to “dial it back,” I would say you’ve gone too far even for Our Treasonous Orange Pestilence...yep, just tell our brave men and women in the military to commit war crimes; just turn up the goddamn Lee Greenwood soundtrack louder to drown out voices of dissent I guess...and I know there are great people of all political stripes who marched on No Kings Day about 10 days ago, and credit to them, but I’ve given up on expecting sanity and rationality from the “party of Lincoln” overall when it comes to the Tangerine Toddler...



...and Farron Cousins informs us that, according to a story in Politico, Repug canvassers across the country are “hating their lives right now”; I wish I could feel sorry for them, but I don’t...pretty bad, though, that they’re getting attacked by their own voters...sounds like Craig Berland and Todd Gillman truly are masters of the obvious when it comes to the issues rightly dragging down their party, to say nothing of the rest of the country...



...also, I’m going to add a couple of clips here because Our Sweaty Orange Bronzer Boy is threatening total annihilation...Paul Krugman calls this “America’s Darkest Hour,” and he could be right...indeed, our brave men and women of the military should refuse any order from Our Orange Lunatic which would constitute a war crime, and anyone in this outlaw regime should also resign in response (yeah...good luck with that, I know)...Krugman makes his case quietly and in a matter of fact manner, which makes it all the more powerful as far as yours truly is concerned (definitely miss his columns in the Times, but I understand why he decided that he’d had enough of that)...also, any Repug politician who remains silent over this (and that includes Bri-Fi, and this guy, assuming anybody can even find him) is also complicit, and I don’t mean to give the Dems a blanket pass here either, but Cheetoh Hitler has the “R” after his name, not a “D”...and how ironic that, if something utterly catastrophic DOES take place, then Pam “Blondi” and Dog Killer Noem will be absolved of it because they were already shown the door...



...and in case you thought the other side would actually sober up and try to prevent this...well, I give you this Lance Wallnau character who depicts Trump as “an Old Testament Prophet King,”...and this guy think he’s knows more about this country than the Founders who put their lives, property and their honor on the line to endow us with what we’ve enjoyed for almost 250 years...hell, Wallnau and his fellow wingnuts are probably cheering on all of the destruction that may or may not be forthcoming...



...and Mr. Newberger presents this item about Pam (“The Dow Is At 50K!”) Bondi and Kristi (“Unsafe At Any Speed”) Noem, both of whom are currently out of a job as noted...yeah, I think the treatment is deserved here (and it’s more than a little telling that, in all likelihood, the replacements for both will likely be “upward fail son” white men)...



...and today would have been the 75th birthday for drummer Bruce Gary of The Knack.

Monday Stuff

Thom Hartmann discusses the news of EV cars selling out as gas prices skyrocket, according to the Financial Times...interesting comparison of the price of kilowatt hours vs. the cost of gasoline; kind of a financial no-brainer to move to a hybrid vehicle at a minimum (full disclosure: I haven’t done that yet, so shame on me)...didn’t know that Norway is basically going to ban internal combustion engines starting next year; the tide of garbage from our criminal ruling cabal is so relentless (and our corporate media coverage is so damn pathetic) that it’s hard to keep up with what the rest of the world is doing...I also remember the speech from Jimmy Carter widely ridiculed as the “malaise” speech (even though Carter never actually said that word), which was pretty damn prescient when it comes to moving towards renewables...he actually got an initial boost in terms of public opinion after he delivered the speech, but idiot Op-Ed writers started attacking him (as well as the usual Republican suspects) and the public mood changed...I don’t know what exactly is going on with Couch Boy, but that line about “fraud” sounds like an unintentional “tell,” I have to say...I think Thom is spot-on about blue state governors needing to get together to fight back against the utter madness of our kleptocratic D.C. regime...

...and Richard Ojeda of Rebel HQ brings us up to date on the latest madness from the lunatics trying to destroy our country...I know it’s not exactly “man bites dog” stuff to point out the mental/emotional development issues of Spray-Tan Satan, but I think that needs to be reconsidered given that we’re at freaking war with no end in sight...and I give The Good Liars credit for trying to have discussions with the wingnuts to make them see reality, which unfortunately might be the least productive possible exercise...”like a clown car of chaos” indeed, tragically, when it comes to our ruling cabal of bottom feeders and guttural lowlifes...



...and I thought this clip on X (yes, there is some good stuff there, but it’s rare) was a pretty good rundown on why the SAVE Act is so awful (mildly NSFW/H, but true)...

The Story of the SAVE Act to kill democracy in simple terms…👏 pic.twitter.com/7SrTvtGTfL

— 💕 Brittany Belle 💕 (@BrittanyinTexas) April 3, 2026

...and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” from 4/6/12... I know Indivisible is trying to keep the momentum going from the No Kings 3.0 marches on 3/28, so I thought I’d include this example of trying to keep the “99 percent” effort going from the last year of the first term of Former President Hopey Changey...



...and Desi Lydic of The Daily Show tells us about our bought-and-paid-for SCOTUS hearing oral arguments in the case to get rid of birthright citizenship (including still another meltdown from Cantaloupe Capone...nice “oral” joke, and also the “test scores” one)...also, it looks like Bronzer Beelzebub’s ballroom is on hold (well, maybe) – cue the angry Truth Septic rant in 3, 2, 1...and it does indeed sound like this “ballroom” is going to be as fortified as a missile silo...and oh yeah, a presidential “library” for an individual who most likely has never cracked open a textbook in his life (nice lawyer parody from Troy Iwata at the end)...



...and I think we all need a new tune like this for “mellow Monday” to try and work our way back into another week, so here it is.

Happy Easter 2026

I hope you all you all have a happy and blessed Easter (and happy Passover to all Jewish folk). If you don't observe anything, may you have a happy and blessed long weekend.

Update: Offered without further comment (and yes, I am indeed referring to this)...

Friday Stuff

Brian Tyler Cohen tells us that Pam (“The Dow Is At 50K!”) Bondi just got the heave-ho as Attorney General; this is low-hanging fruit I’ll admit, but this regime really should learn about using grammar and capitalization correctly...yeah, I know, as if they’ll care (and “murders plummeting to their lowest level since 1900”? I’m reminded once more that there are white lies, kind of in-between lies, big lies, and Trumpian lies which are truly Olympian in scope)...I almost feel sorry for her, begging Our Treasonous Orange Pustule not to give her the boot...almost...and it looks like what did her in was actually trying to do a decent thing involving an investigation into Dem U.S. House Rep Eric Swalwell’s alleged relationship with a Chinese spy, notifying Swalwell about it (I think the irony of that speaks for itself...I'm pretty sure Swalwell denied that, though)...and yep, the AG protecting a pedo will indeed be her legacy...and I’m sorry, but I don’t have any faith that Hakeem Jeffires will follow through on holding Bondi to account on her perjured testimony...I could do without the Marjorie Train Wreck Greene clip because I still think she’s chasing clout and that’s about it, but I suppose she might as well be heard from also...”a woman scorned” and all that (NSFW/H)...



...and Belle of the Ranch gives us her insight into #47 apparently still not having a plan for the Iran war, based on whatever-that-supposed-address-was to the nation...I would take Belle’s word that some of the military objectives may have been accomplished, but I seem to recall similar hubris from a prior Repug administration over the initial weeks after Iraq War 2.0, and we know how that ended up (not criticizing Belle, I wish to emphasize)...good point to wonder just how enormous a mess you have created for your chief adversarial nation to come in and clean it up for you...”(Trump) is playing games while lives hang in the balance” indeed...



...and Jesse Dollemore informs us of another pinheaded moment from a blonde in Bronzer Beelzebub’s administration, and that would be the flippant response of Trumpette spokes-liar Karoline Leavitt on the question of war crimes that may have been committed by this regime...OK, so, as Jesse says, now we’re just straight-up murdering people we don’t like, and this disgusting little harpie appears to be proud of that (heckuva job, all you numbskulls who made sure we were inflicted with this in November of ’24)...and I’m sure I’m going to be pointing out for-ev-ah that we had a nuke treaty under Obama that Spray-Tan Satan abandoned, just like he did with the Murphy-Lankford immigration bill in the Senate...great point by Jesse that Mango Mussolini has never faced accountability for a damn thing, so OF COURSE he’s going to be emboldened...and leave to Leavitt to dish out word salad in response to the excellent question from NBC reporter Garrett Haake about targeting Iranian civilian infrastructure (NSFW/H also)...



...and turning to domestic political matters, Sam Seder of The Majority Report talks with David Bier, director of immigration studies at The Cato Institute (hmmm...) about “Kavanaugh stops”...ICE was initially caught red handed doing racial profiling as Bier says, and an injunction cut the profiling of Hispanics by about two-thirds (around LA I believe)...DHS goes to an appellate court which also rules against them, so they then appeal to the SCOTUS that grants an emergency order overturning the injunction, with “I Like Beer” Brett defending DHS (I definitely wouldn’t say that Kavanaugh had “courage,” but again, this Bier guy is from Cato, so I’m not surprised to hear him put it that way)...Kavanaugh called these “stops,” and said they weren’t a big deal, like a cop casing a bank or something (nice...hence the “Kavanaugh stops” term)...not surprised to hear that cops in Texas and Flori-DUUH are being trained to do this garbage...Bier makes a good point that it looks like the 2.0 version of this ICE Gestapo madness is going to be more “diffuse” and maybe a bit lower profile than what we’ve seen so far, but don’t expect anything to change in terms of policy...Sam also is correctly sadly about Apartheid Clyde, David Ellison, and other wingnuts with waaay too much damn money throttling all kinds of clips on social media that could hold these ICE cretins up to the scrutiny they deserve...also shocked to hear Cato defending social media in court; credit to them for that...



...and turning again to overseas news, MS NOW’s David Noreiga speaks with Chris Hayes about the ongoing violence from Israeli settlers against Palestinians on the West Bank, which ramped up after the October 7th terrorist attack and also accelerated with the beginning of the U.S. - Israel war vs. Iran (with Noriega having to flee an area of Palestinian land that the settlers and the IDF have basically taken over)...Noriega discusses the case of Seifullah Musallet, an American citizen and Palestinian beaten to death by Israelis (under the regime of the Tangerine Toddler, apparently, American citizens abroad don’t have any rights, especially in land contested by Israel...I guess this shouldn’t be surprising, but I think it still needs to be pointed out)...



...and with the prior story in mind a bit, this video from DRM News (not familiar much with them) tells us about a recent “barefoot march for peace” in Rome streets by Israeli and Palestinian mothers (if more women ruled, it certainly wouldn’t be perfect, but I firmly believe that most of the crap going on now wouldn’t be taking place)...



...and turning to something wholly other, Lewis Black of The Daily Show brings us up to date on the online gambling business, where it appears that you can bet on literally anything...I don’t know what the over-under is for the number of sarcastic nicknames I intend to use for our current president in this post, but I have every intention of “beating the spread” when mentioning Cheetoh Hitler (and yeah, I know Black makes a “Jesus joke” that kind of goes splat, and the timing for that is particularly bad given today especially, but it’s Lewis Black, so I’ll cut him some slack...that’s my ruling on that and I’m sticking with it – NSFW/H of course)...



...and tomorrow marks what would have been the 58th anniversary of this tragedy (and as I said last year, Our Sweaty Orange Bronzer Boy will likely say this is “DEI” and try to erase it from the history books, so we need to make sure it’s “front of mind” for everybody).

Thursday Stuff

Mr. and Mrs. Scar along with Willie Geist, Gabriel Sherman (I think that’s who it is) and David Ignatius discuss Mango Mussolini making more noise about taking the U.S. out of NATO, and if that isn’t a blaring red siren to the world that #47 IS NOTHING BUT A PUTIN OPERATIVE, then I don’t freaking know what is...NATO has ensured the relative peace and stability in Europe for decades, helping to avoid large-scale ground wars in that region since World War II (in which my father fought along with millions of others)...and props to Former President Biden for signing the law saying that no president can take the U.S. out of NATO without congressional approval – I mean, not that Combover Caligula will care, but the legal stuff still matters in a big way of course (and funny, but I don’t hear any of the numbskulls carping about “Sleepy Joe” giving him credit for that, like this utter fool)...and by the way, “Mika’s Dad” was this guy; yes, he was a cold warrior in good and bad ways, but at least he knew who the enemy was...I would like to have seen some more full-throated outrage aimed at the “party of Lincoln” for babying our *preznit on this and everything else, but I guess a polite slap on the wrist is as far as that will go...



...and believe me when I tell you that, for the most part, I wouldn’t give CPAC the time of day, but I definitely thought it was noteworthy to see the crowd reaction to mentioning still another potential impeachment that may be inflicted on the Tangerine Toddler, as Jen Psaki tells us (and no, Matt Schlapp, you can’t treat the crowd the same way as when you groped a man at a Virginia bar, as noted here – allegedly!)...



...and Brian Tyler Cohen tells us that, in another sign that the “party of Lincoln” is bracing for an electoral whoopin’ this fall, Repug Sam Graves of Missouri won’t seek re-election in the House, and that brings the total for his party to 36 who are departing, with the most from the “R” team stepping down in about a century...some of those interviews might be repeats, but I have no problem with showing them again...”a party of either despots or cowards” indeed...

...and this New York Times clip discusses “Club America,” which is apparently the effort to install Turning Point USA chapters in high schools across the country (and as always for the other side, there is never a shortage of dough to bankroll this stuff)...I don’t know if it’s possible for Democrats/progressives to try and launch their own movement, or if they did what their message would be (and policies of course), but this describes the uphill battle we face with the current and next generation of voters (basically, just saying “orange man bad!” isn’t NEARLY good enough)...and by the way, I’m not trying to beat up some of the high schoolers in this clip, including the missionary son; I believe they’re misguided politically, but I would never say they don’t have the right to their opinion (despite the fact that the movement they support in both an actual and de facto way wants to utterly squash those voicing dissent, notably lefties/Dems/progressives)...



...and Stephen Colbert on “The Late Show” gives us a rundown on the news...yeah, I know Trumpty Dumpty gave a prime-time address on his war of choice in Iran (here), but unless he says “I resign,” I have no interest in hearing one damn word out of his lying mouth...and it’s “12 dimensional chess”? That’s an interesting euphemism for “I’m in waaaay over my head, I don’t know what the hell I’m doing and apparently nobody else can clean up my mess”...and awwww, it looks like his bought-and-paid-for SCOTUS isn’t going to end birthright citizenship for him – c’est dommage, so OF COURSE #47 had a great big hissy fit and stormed out of the hearing...and good luck to our great astronauts on the Artemis II mission to the moon...and if it were probably anybody else on the planet besides Karoline Leavitt, I would care about a photo being removed because it was “unflattering,” but as far as I’m concerned, that propaganda queen deserves what she gets...



...and I’m probably overdue with this newer selection which is timely just about every day...and by the way, I know I’m falling into the trap of covering all of the madness from our ruling regime and letting that crowd out other stuff like policy that could make a more direct impact on people’s lives, but if “Team D” would EVER provide those details, I would be more than happy to oblige them and publicize that stuff here (yeah I know, I can dream, can’t I?).

Wednesday Stuff

This Damage Report segment gives us an extended clip of former U.S. Navy and SEAL team vet (as well as Minnesota governor) Jesse Ventura, in which he speaks with Piers Morgan about Ventura’s family’s military service, which is commendable...the former wrestler may be “out there” on some issues, but as far as I’m concerned, when Ventura’s right, he hits the proverbial bullseye, as he does about #47 and the military along with the fact that Combover Caligula has about as much business being included in the “wrestling hall of fame” as I do; also, our *preznit has ordered troops to war while he and his family have zero military service (important history on David Robinson, the former San Antonio Spurs basketball player and Navy vet)...and leave it to former “South Park” writer Toby Morton to get the whole “Draft Barron” thing going (John Iadarola tells us about it...”what greater badge of honor is there than Donald Trump’s disdain” indeed)...



...and Rachel Maddow informs us of how Bronzer Beelzebub is planning to use DHS to mess with this fall’s elections...her report starts with the note that the CDC windows shot up by a gunman about seven months ago (an incident that killed a police officer) still haven’t been repaired yet...also, it looks like the Department of Education has basically been shut down, even if the regime of Pumpkin Pol Pot can’t do that officially without Congress...probably illegal to use DHS to target election administration, though of course illegality has NEVER stopped this regime from pulling all kinds of nonsense (clip mentions that Fulton County raid that “Tokyo Rose” Gabbard was involved in for some reason)...and oh yeah, it looks like Cheetoh Hitler wants voting records in Minnesota too...



...and this report from the DW German news network lets us know that Pope Leo recently said, “God rejects the prayers of those who wage war,” in comments timed for Holy Week - that includes SecDef Kegseth; religious language coming out of that empty vessel’s mouth sounds profane...journalist Seema Gupta offers some context on how other popes have chosen their language when stepping into the public sphere, particularly when it comes to armed conflict...



...and Brittany Page brings us the sorry tale of Newsmax numbskull Carl Higbie laughing at the homeless; looks like that goofball Michael Savage is in the middle of this, which isn’t surprising (and oh yeah, isn’t Savage sooo compassionate wanting the homeless to supposedly get the care that they need in the internment camps Savage is talking about – “I’d like ‘Things That Will Never Happen Within The Plane of Reality’ for $100, Alex.”)...as we learn, the number of cost-burdened renter households has reached an all-time high at 22.7 million, with more than 30 percent of income for these folks on rent and utilities...and I’ve heard that homelessness is a big problem in San Francisco, but I refuse to believe that automatic incarceration is the answer...God bless Timothy; I hope he finds the peace and relief in the afterlife that he apparently couldn’t find in this world...



...and Desi Lydic of The Daily Show gives us a news update...I really want to steer clear of the whole “Kristi Noem’s husband’s female online persona” thing; I just hope all parties affected get the counseling they need (not into kink shaming, unless it has to do with putting down someone else)...and gas prices are indeed going up because of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz – yet another broken promise from the Tangerine Toddler, though, of course, he NEVER has a problem goading our allies about that or anything else...Thank You For Your Attention To This Matter)...and what would the story of Our Shiny New Middle East War be without an appearance by SecDef Kegseth? Well, smarter and less ridiculous, ultimately (“a beautiful deployment mustache”? What, is this supposed to be “Brokeback Mountain 2”?)...and in a similar vein, along comes Huckleberry Graham to cheer for yet another conflict he would never fight in himself, though of course he has time to go to the Magic Kingdom while our brave men and women are in harm’s way...



...and RIP composer Chip Taylor, who authored this tune among others.
