Monday Stuff

John Iadarola and Keith Edwards of The Damage Report bring us more madness from Cheetoh Hitler...jeez, when Our Ochre Abomination can’t even make nice with Peter Douchebag, well, isn’t that time to just make the #25thAmendmentNow official? And oh yeah, apparently no one but our alleged orange genius knew that Iran would retaliate as they did – I would say that what has happened was indeed expected by EVERYONE IN THE GODDAMN WORLD WITH A BRAIN!!!...and “thousands and thousands of missiles,” huh? I think that last lonely synapse in his noggin is flickering at this point (and I share Edwards’ concern about “midterm shenanigans,” which are already underway...good point about the election day bomb threats in ’24, which were never investigated as nearly as I can tell...God, I wish JUST ONCE that SOMEBODY from our press corps would call out this demented orange fool for the liar he truly is)...

...and Jesse Dollemore and Brittany Page bring us the disgusting spectacle of Cantaloupe Capone celebrating the death of former FBI head Robert Mueller, which is totally expected for our flatulent orange meat sack...good point about how it’s apparently OK for #47 to do that, in contrast with all the folks who were attacked for not being sufficiently mournful over the killing of Charlie Kirk (and leave it to Couch Boy to get it wrong here also)...good point by Page that there was a time when Repugs would actually do the right thing and properly mourn Mueller’s passing (and by the way, I never blamed Mueller for maybe not going as far as I would have liked with his report because Bill Barr sat all over it and wouldn’t let Mueller go in the direction I personally wanted...I think it was pretty plain when Mueller testified before Congress that he basically wanted our legislature to take his findings and use them for the required prosecution, which, thanks to Merrick Garland, didn’t happen)...good point by Page that it’s a stoo-pid and useless exercise to ask some of the flunkies in our cabinet what they think about their boss dancing on Mueller’s grave, notably Scott Bessent, who indeed should NEVER be allowed to live down his glazing of his boss here; that said, I would ask Kristen Welker what the hell do you THINK Bessent would say? Do you HONESTLY BELIEVE that he’d criticize Dear Orange Leader?? (NSFW/H)...



...and Farron Cousins discusses young MAGA voters (35 and under apparently) abandoning #47 – took them long enough...and I think there’s a lot more going on here than a “vibe shift,” by the way...I don’t know who the hell wrote that WaPo editorial (trying to be hip or something), but I’m sure it’s causing Ben Bradlee and Mrs. Graham to do somersaults in their respective graves...in fewer words, these voters, like anybody else who supports the Tangerine Toddler, got utterly played and they don’t have the first clue about what to do in response (although calling a therapist is probably a good first step)...



...and given that I mentioned earlier about the double standard of Trumpists speaking out against those who weren’t sufficiently grieving over the death of Charlie Kirk while acting like it’s OK to trash Robert Mueller, I should remind us of last week’s clip of the two goofballs advocating the death of James Talarico, which apparently is fine also as far as they’re concerned – given that, I’d like to include Talarico’s response here...

...and here’s a tune from Mr. Newberger about the top story we’re all dealing with in one way or another...



...and today marks the 70th anniversary of the release of Elvis Presley’s debut recording (here), which consisted entirely of cover tunes since he was starting out; “Blue Suede Shoes” is probably the most remembered number, though this was included also.

Friday Stuff

Jesse Dollemore tells us that some nematode named Brooks Potteiger (a follower of SecDef Pete Kegseth’s “pastor” Doug Wilson), is apparently praying for the death of Texas Dem U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico (here)...what a POS this Potteiger guy is...as usual, Jesse is spot-on about the Constitution and prohibition of a particular religion sponsored by our government, and I don’t know anybody else who’s saying that “Christian” nationalism in this country is our equivalent to the Taliban (including this William Wolfe charlatan), but Jesse is right about that also IMO, with Potteiger et al oppressing folks of all kinds of other faiths in the process...also, this Michael Cloud life form thinks “the left” only knows about Matthew:25; well, speaking only for myself, I’m familiar also with the letters of St. Paul and the Sermon on the Mount, though I definitely AM NOT a “holy roller” by any means, though I WILL say that the common theme is helping the poor and caring for your neighbor, and I definitely think Cloud doesn’t get that despite what he says...and of course, leave it to a Repug like Cloud to suddenly care about THE DEBT THE DEBT THE DEBT!!! when it comes to spending for something besides war and doling out tax cuts for the rich, proving Jude Wanniski and his “Two Santa Claus” theory once again (NSFW/H)...



...oh, and before we get all misty eyed over the departure of Chuck Norris into, presumably, some karate studio in the great beyond, let’s not forget that he and his wife issued this beyond ridiculous pronouncement about what was at that time the potential for a second term under President Barack Obama...I had to “set the wayback” on this clip from David Pakman to tell us about it...



...to be fair to Norris, he definitely didn’t come across as a strident “true believer” of a movement conservative to his credit, though I definitely cannot say that about another wingnut who just left us, and that would be former NRA head David Keene...he and fellow scumwaffle John Lott ended up giving a commencement address to a whole bunch of empty chairs, each representing a student killed from gun violence who would never see graduation (here)...still can’t get my head around the fact that important statements like this (the chairs I mean) will NEVER shame soulless right-wing cretins like these two into doing the right thing, though I of course applaud this then as now by Manuel and Patricia Oliver, whose son Joaquin “Guac” was killed at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, in 2018 (a link to the group "Change The Ref" that they founded is here)...Keene and Lott were told the address would be filmed, but the two found out later that the whole thing was staged (as noted in the clip, if they’d actually checked, they would have found out that James Madison Academy, the school allegedly filmming their address, didn’t exist).

Oh, and as noted here, Keene helped mobilize a coalition of Repug senators to block a bill to expand background checks on gun purchases, because of course...Keene also opposed a United Nations Arms Treaty, wrongly saying it was a plot by the Obama Administration against the 2nd Amendment...Keene also alleged that Obama would impose “radical limits on the 2nd Amendment” after the gun massacre at Sandy Hook (if only).

Here’s the “empty chairs” clip (and I believe the phrase “rest in piss” is apropos)...



...and Sam Seder of The Majority Report explains why trying to shut down Kharg Island (presumably to bomb it, given this idiotic crew) could severely hurt Iran’s oil exports...good point that this might be not too awful of a strategy for fighting a war, but assuming you somehow win and you’re responsible to repair the damage, you’ll be screwed...pretty pathetic that we’re lifting sanctions on Iranian oil to do SOMETHING to keep the price under $200 a barrel – I mean, if you’re going to fight the damn war, is it asking too damn much to be consistent in your strategy? And yes, as Sam also points out, Obama and Biden were unfreezing Iranian assets that were originally frozen after the Shah was deposed in 1979 – no, those two weren’t “giving Iran money”...ugh...and oh yeah, along comes Our Sweaty Orange Meat Sack to give us his utterly demented version of how his war is proceeding (oh, sorry...I’m supposed to call it a “little excursion,” like he’s taking a detour of a flight to Mar-a-Lago)...and of course, that bit about another president saying he wanted to do what #47 did in attacking Iran is still another lie...and just when you thought all of this couldn’t get more bizarre and disgusting, along comes Couch Boy to turn the stoo-pid up to 11, you might say (and when it comes to the alleged green energy “scam,” allow me to present this; I’ll admit that Denmark may have soured on solar, but they’re into wind big time, and last I checked, that country didn’t choose to fight any wars for oil...and yeah, one NATO member country had to prepare for a potential invasion from another NATO member country by getting ready to blow up some airfields – just add that to the pile of sick generated on a daily basis from this wretched bunch)...



...and Jordan Klepper of The Daily Show tells us that SecDef Kegseth wants another $200 bil for our war of choice in Iran, but of course, this country can’t find the dough for universal pre-K, extending ACA credits, funding Medicaid including community hospitals, helping our farmers by creating new markets for their crops, supporting debt-free college, universal basic income, community broadband access, affordable housing, funding clean energy initiatives, rebuilding our infrastructure including repairing our power grids, and on and on (and we revisit Our Blundering Orange Fool’s utterly inappropriate remark about Pearl Harbor)...I know I just had a clip of Klepper a couple of days ago, but I absolutely had to include this one also because of Afroman’s court victory; glad I can wrap up the week with SOME good news...



...and I started this week with a newer tune, so I’ll likely end it with another recent selection (and with the first video of this post in mind).

Thursday Stuff

Anybody who voted for this orange scumwaffle in ’24 (maybe in ’16 also) should have a big red “T” tattooed onto their foreheads to advertise their stoo-pidity to the whole world...yeah, just go ahead and piss off one of our most important allies for no good reason...



...oh, and speaking of Japan, they have a 73 percent unfavorable opinion of Cheetoh Benito’s war of choice against Iran, as Sam Seder and the crew of The Majority Report tell us here, with Harry Enten of CNN giving a breakdown of the incredibly negative (and not surprising) global opposition, which could have been foreseen by anyone with an actual brain...yeah, it’s going to take awhile to repair some of the goodwill #47 has utterly destroyed...maybe a decade or two, assuming sane political leadership in this country (which is a big “if,” I know)...



...and Anne Applebaum, staff writer for The Atlantic, gives us more of a historical context – Mango Mussolini is doing his best (worst?) to destroy global alliances that this country has forged over about 80 years or so...

Translation: NATO knows Trump is a piece of shit. 😳👇 pic.twitter.com/8pRtTFFBdp

— Bill Madden (@maddenifico) March 19, 2026

...and John and Nina Turner of The Damage Report discuss Dem U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff holding “Tokyo Rose” Gabbard’s feet to the proverbial fire over who’s responsible for the threat assessment when it comes to Iran in particular and their nuclear capability, with Gabbard trying to evade responsibility (I have to admit that the phrase “ovarian audacity” is a new one)...and believe me when I say that, as someone who once supported John Edwards, I’ve tried to be extra circumspect about politicians who seem to show up late for the party, you might say, and Gabbard to me was always one of those people; she was a fraud then, and she’s an even bigger one now...



...and turning to domestic matters, Chris Hayes informs us that, as bad as the Tangerine Toddler’s approval rating is overall (and it is for sure), it gets worse when he’s polled about what you could call his priorities, with about 70% saying he’s not paying enough attention to the issues that ostensibly got him re-elected (and that includes #47 acting like the ketchup-flinging ingrate we know he is if he doesn’t get his precious SAVE Act to suppress voters everywhere in an effort to make sure Repugs keep control of Congress)...Hayes speaks with NYT columnist Jamelle Bouie and former Dem Senator Jon Tester (I’m actually shocked to hear that Tim Scott collaborated with Elizabeth Warren on a housing bill – I just don’t know enough about that at the moment to say anything, but the ban on single-family homes to rent sounds sketchy – but of course it may go for naught if you-know-who doesn’t end his hissy fit and sign it into law)...and I don’t know much about this Mark Dubowitz person, but even among his most insane followers, I refuse to believe #47’s Iranian mess has 90 percent approval...good point that the cost of fertilizer for farmers is in the stratosphere also in addition to gas because both are affected by the blockage of the Strait of Hormuz...



...and Johnny Rivers debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 with this tune on this day in 1966 (another homage to Patrick McGoohan, who lives on in this humble little blog...today would have been his 98th birthday, oddly enough).

Wednesday Stuff

(Posting might get a little flaky over the coming days...I'm just not sure yet).

Rachel Maddow discusses how other nations are taking advantage of the abysmally poor planning by our ruling regime in executing the war with Iran, including Energy Secretary Chris Wright saying we were escorting ships through the Strait of Hormuz, when we weren’t as it turns out...also, it looks like the decision was made fortunately for us NOT to escort ships through the Strait since it would be a “kill box”...but oh yeah, soon a “coalition of allies” will magically appear to escort ships instead of our navy doing that – uh huh...and as always, when it comes to EVERYTHING from this utter disaster of a *presidential administration, Russia emerges as perhaps the only winner here, and they’re also helping Iran attack our troops and target facilities in the Mideast (I’m old enough to recall when we had political parties with actual spines who would speak up and mobilize public support against unpopular wars, but I guess we’ll have to consult the history books if we want to learn about that)...so what does Pumpkin Pol Pot do in response? FURTHER lifting sanctions against Russia...that’ll show them! Oh, and it looks like our DOJ is asking a court to withdraw a guilty plea from a guy linked to Russian intelligence...the hits just keep on coming, and that includes dropping a case against a Turkish bank accused of laundering billions for Iran...oh, and speaking of money, Wonder Boy Jared Kushner is still trying to “make bank” in the Middle East with our dear friends the Saudis while war rages...yep, it does indeed look like our military has been rented out to Israel (which we knew already) and the Saudis...I think calling this whole thing a quagmire is being kind...



...and Kyle Kulinski brings us a clip of 1st Trump term SecDef Mark Esper saying Cantaloupe Capone is losing the Iran war, bringing what I would call some pretty solid analysis to the table (Esper I mean)...man, is Kyle ever right about the influence of the actual adults during the reign of #45...I would add H.R. McMaster and John Kelly to that list; I mean, yeah, they were still conservative, but they had a bit of common sense and actual experience...and when John “Blow ‘Em Up” Bolton looks like the freaking voice of reason, I think it’s safe to say that we’re looking at one great big sh*t sandwich and we’re all going to have to take a bite...and the “smokey-eyed sociopath” Mr. Hillbilly Elegy – good one (NSFW/H)...



...but despite how bad #47’s military misadventure gets, our *preznit will always have the fundie nut jobs in his corner, including this Todd Lamphere character, saying “we’re behind him” when it comes to the war, the jackbooted ICE Gestapo, etc. (of course, not that these people have the slightest inclination to actually carry a weapon to support our country of course)...



...well, to lighten the mood a bit, I give you this item, where Jesse Dollemore tells us about horny MAGA men getting all worked up over a Trumpist woman who happens to be an AI – way too damn funny (especially making donations to her “OnlyFans” account, which, as Jesse says, probably went to some graphic designer who came up with this scam)...this person had better keep a low profile, since I can’t imagine what the rubes will do when they find out that they were utterly played yet again, especially when it comes to the “Border of Peace” (ROFLMAO)...NSFW/H...



...and Jordan Klepper of The Daily Show gives us the rundown that we probably didn’t know we needed (and why am I not the least bit surprised to see the Tangerine Toddler now focusing on Cuba, since everything is just so peachy in Iran?)...and last I heard about this Joe Kent guy, he lost to conserva-Dem Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in the U.S. House, making both of them about the same in my book (and nice job by Pumpkin Pol Pot to appoint the guy who was supposedly “weak on security” to FREAKING HEAD COUNTER-TERRORISM!!)...and man, am I snacking on the popcorn while watching the tweet war between Mark (“Micropenis”) Levin and “Maniac Megyn” Kelly (and even Marjorie Taylor Greene too? Looks like I’m getting extra helpings)..and I’m not going to make a joke about the new ayatollah because, unlike other media idiots (and I don’t mean Klepper, or Troy Iawta), I happen to think actual war, with our people in harm’s way, is serious (NSFW/H)...



...and today marks what would have been the 85th birthday of Wilson Pickett.

Tuesday Stuff

David Pakman tells us about Dems winning another special election, this time in New Hampshire - Democrat Bobbi Boudman defeated Republican Dale Fincher, flipping a state house seat that was won by Cantaloupe Capone two years ago by nine points as noted here (and believe me when I tell you that, overall with some exceptions, New Hampshire trends towards the “R” side; I get mad at conserva-Dems like Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan at times, but they know the landscape of that state better than I do)...as impressive as the 13-point swing here towards the “D” team is, it also means a lot that the strategy of “let’s drown the Dems in negative ads” apparently didn’t work this time fortunately, and it’s also heartening that the “R” team lost on school vouchers, showing that there’s more support for public schools than our corporate media thinks (and Jesse Dollemore talked last week about Shawn Harris leading so far in GA-14)...



...and David Shuster of Rebel HQ brings us the story of “I did that!” stickers apparently popping up at gas pumps all over the place, aimed right at Cheetoh Benito; turnabout is definitely fair play here, since that stoo-pidity was ubiquitous against “No Malarkey Joe” in ’24...GREAT point that “energy dominance does NOT mean energy independence,” given that we lead the world in liquified natural gas from fracking (which is ruining our landscapes, but that’s a whole other story)...oh, and now along comes human phallus (no, not Baby Goebbels for once) Brendan Carr to basically threaten news orgs to tow the line from our ruling cabal of grifters and lowlifes or lose their broadcast licenses, a threat that will survive exactly zero court challenges...oh, and it also looks like SecDef Kegseth punted the awful attack on the Iranian girls school over to CENTCOM to avoid accountability, just like a good Trumpist lickspittle is supposed to...



...and yesterday marked the 23rd anniversary of the murder of peace activist Rachel Corrie; she was crushed by a bulldozer that was demolishing Palestinian settlements in Gaza...I actually didn’t know what happened, but I saw the torrent of wingnut ridicule heaped upon her posthumously so I looked into it...she actually survived the attack and lingered for a few hours; the pictures are horrifying...maybe some insanity mixed in with her incredible bravery; we’ve been coddling “Bibi” and his hellish thugs for way too damn long, and I think we should commemorate anyone who stands up to that...



...and Emma V. of The Majority Report tells us about Dick Durbin in the Senate commendably speaking up against the SAVE Act, which, yet again, is a “solution” in search of an actual problem...didn’t know that driver’s licenses by themselves wouldn’t be accepted as valid under the Act, but given the people behind this stoo-pidity, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised...also didn’t know that the Gropenfuhrer is holding out his endorsement of John Cornyn in Texas to try and get Cornyn to go along with this mess, but to be honest, I don’t think #47 has the gravitas he once had on this, especially in a Repug primary (maybe in the general, but to be honest, I’m not even sure about that either)...and man, is Matt Lech right about Repug voters feeding on horsesh*t and our corporate media totally falling down when it comes to calling it out...one of the many good points here is how voter suppression overwhelmingly influences minority communities and those where people of color live, as well as people with disabilities...more on Cleta Mitchell, a woman who basically has been doing her best to “ratf*ck” Democratic elections for over 30 years (and all because she ran unsuccessfully as a Dem for Oklahoma lieutenant governor in 1986), is here and here...also, I don’t know why the hell David freaking Axelrod just SHUTS THE HELL UP about the Iranian school bombing; he certainly doesn’t have any intel on that, nor do I of course, but that has all the hallmarks of some of the garbage Israel has pulled in Gaza (referencing the Rachel Corrie clip a bit - NSFW/H)...



Update 3/18/26: This utterly awful piece of legislation is being debated today; call 866-393-5761 and tell your Senator to vote No.

...and Seth Meyers gives us “A Closer Look” on the Iran war that is A) Just beginning or B) Just ending, is a A) Short excursion or a B) Longer war, along with oil prices that are A) Going up or B) Coming down; yeah, they don’t have a clue about this...and I’m sure Huckleberry Graham just put on his oversized Florsheim shoes (and you KNOW he has a pair, right?) and told Combover Caligula to bomb bomb bomb, bomb Iran, like Graham’s old pal John McCain once sang...OK, so we have “warfighter” SecDef Kegseth acting like there’s no end in sight, along with Mango Mussolini with those lonely synapses flickering to life and not giving a straight answer on this or anything else...ugh (and it doesn’t matter how much that human thumb Brendan Carr tells the media to stop reporting on the war in a way that hurts his boss’s fee fees; pictures of tankers blowing up from Iranian missiles are going to be a fact of life for a little while)...and golly gee, you mean Baby Newton Leroy is ready to throw in the towel already while he’s complaining to Kudlow? Good thing I never shared a fox hole with him (full disclosure: I never shared a fox hole with anybody)...and #47 tells his great unwashed followers that he was falling asleep while contemplating the gravest action a president can take (and worrying about the branding of course); I’m sure the families and friends of our casualties will be happy to hear that...



...and Happy St. Patrick's Day to all who observe.

Monday Stuff

Oh look, Combover Caligula’s war of choice versus Iran has caused “the largest disruption in the history of the global oil market” according to industry analysts, as we learn from Emma Vigeland and The Majority Report...and of course, in response, #47 is telling everyone to SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP about high gas prices and deal with it (yeah...let’s see how well THAT message plays out in November)...prices have jumped 35 cents in a week, and it will likely go higher...and oh yeah, here come more lies about Iran killing US citizens for 47 years, all without proof of course (what a mental defective our *preznit truly is...let’s see if he and his lizard-brained followers chanting “U-S-A!” are still quite so rambunctious after Iran has effectively shut down the Strait of Hormuz for months and the world is gripped by a COVID-like recession as a result, to say nothing of the ongoing threat to our military)...and for the umpteenth time I know, we had a nuke deal with Iran under Obama, but Trump waddled away from it...and as usual, the top fraction of 1 percent has gamed “the big casino” of our economy to clean up when we have rising energy prices, while the rest of us get nothing by comparison (and another good point is to mention the Biden clean energy initiatives that could have helped here that Cheetoh Benito destroyed...slightly NSFW/H)...



...and this clip from Canadian television (the CBC) explains why securing the Strait of Hormuz is harder than our clown car of an administration suggests (with Lyndsay Duncombe)...and we have “don’t need to worry about it” Kegseth lying as usual, especially since, as the journalist interviewed suggests, Iran has lots of options when it comes to disrupting ship traffic, including using shoulder-fired missiles; we also learn that clearing mines in the strait is dangerous and risky (which, again, should have been foreseen by any adult with an actual brain), and the ships that ARE getting through are signaling that they’re from China or Iran, and even THOSE signals are getting “spoofed” (an update is here, with the Tangerine Toddler kicking and screaming that someone else needs to clean up his mess...how disgustingly predictable)...



...and turning to domestic political matters, Belle of the Ranch tells us about U.S. Senate Repugs blocking DHS and TSA funding...it looks like Dem Senator Patty Murray commendably asked for unanimous consent on a measure to fund areas of DHS not having to do with immigration enforcement as well as for TSA and cyber security, and three guesses what happened next and the first two don’t count...yeah, Repugs have no problem caterwauling on TV and social media about how obstructionist Dems allegedly are, but when it’s time to do some actual governance, they suddenly “reach for the chicken switch,” you might say (‘don’t let them lie to you about this” indeed...and I love the shirt)...



...and I now give you the latest installment of “This Day In Doomsy History” from 3/16/12...sadly, I think this clip from "back in the day" is timely given this awful story...oh, so this Mark Gordon Philistine who’s the governor of Wyoming signs a bill banning abortion after 6 weeks (when most women don’t even know they’re pregnant, and joining four other states with similar bans), and he acts like the lack of exceptions in the bill goes against his beliefs or whatever...but he signs the stinking thing into law anyway? What, does this guy think he should get credit somehow? Because, as always, it’s Jobs, Jobs, Jobs for Not Your Father’s Republican Party...



...and returning to our regularly scheduled war, I thought I’d include this item from Mr. Newberger...



...and I think this guy is coming to Philly on June 4th...should be a good show if his other tunes rock like this one.

Friday Stuff

Kyle Kulinski gives us an update on Cheetoh Hitler’s illegal war with Iran...and the “Axis of Epstein,” huh? (meaning Dementia Donnie and “Bibi”)...good one...and I would say that that 24 percent number (of the people who actually think Iran bombed their own school) reflects the very worst of the flatulent MAGA mouth breathers out there...it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if the IDF did that and are acting like, “yeah, well, maybe it was really the U.S.”...and only 10 percent of those polled think this war will actually improve their lives; I would imagine they own stock in Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing and General Dynamics...and 52 percent think this whole mess is to distract from Epstein; yep, I would say that the BS isn’t working any more also...and I think “George W. Trump” fits too (NSFW/H)...



...and I guess it was inevitable that our corporate media was going to turn all “oh, you can’t criticize Dear Leader on his war of choice with Iran or else you’re anti-Semitic,” but it looks like the WaPo has the inglorious “honor” of being the first to pile on with that, as Mike Figueredo of The Humanist Report tells us...and I have a feeling this “AI slop” video was created by wingnuts to troll our side, mainly because the production quality of the clip is awful and doing something like that is right out of their playbook (and this Op-Ed was written by a guy named Will Oremus, who appears to be a technology writer; I guess he’s legit, but I’ll withhold judgment for now)...and according to his bio, this Bret Schafer guy who is quoted is an expert in “computational propaganda,” so to be honest, I think he doth protest too much here since he’s a little too close to the subject...oh, and as far as this Anna Kelly idiot is concerned, “fake news” is good when it suits the purposes of Bronzer Beelzebub, but when those outlets report the truth and by definition are no longer “fake,” then that’s bad? Make it make sense somehow...and indeed, the utter horror of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal isn’t because he’s Jewish (to be honest, I was wondering how long it was going to take before somebody tried THAT argument); it’s because he ruined the lives of apparently hundreds of women for the benefit of the “pay no price, bear no burden” one percent (NSFW/H also)...



...and I’m not sure there’s anybody out there better than Lawrence O’Donnell when it comes to keeping a record of all of the disgusting depravity of Dementia J. Trump, and O’Donnell does so again here concerning Operation Epstein Fury; that flaming tanker in the Strait of Hormuz is emblematic of this ruinous administration...so I guess all #47 has left are these garbage videos about his war of choice to peddle to those gullible fools who have supported him – typical...



...and turning to domestic electoral matters, Jesse Dollemore lets us know that Dem Shawn Harris is the leader of all candidates from Tuesday’s special primary contest for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s GA-14 seat, though, to be fair, we still have to get to the general election, but as Jesse says, given the fact that GA-14 was once a plus-37 district for Trump...well, I don’t think you have to be a political genius to see what this portends for the “R” party...and speaking only for myself, I’m tired of this “runoff” business because that’s just MORE money spent on campaigning for another election that could be used for much better purposes; whoever gets the most votes should win the damn election the first time, whether it’s a primary or “the general”...good point by Jesse that those gerrymanders made what were some super red districts now potentially in play for the “D” team (NSFW/H as well)...



...and Jimmy Kimmel brings us up-to-date with the latest headlines (jeez, $250K of sex toys getting robbed; wonder if somebody is working on a script to make a movie out of THAT?)...and 50K TSA employees working without pay because of Repug budget games, again...and you can tell it’s time for more propaganda from Our Treasonous Orange Yam since there’s always a typo...and eeessnt eeet soouh eeen-terest-eeennng tuuuh heeer Melania spout off about her visionary creative mind dancing, or whatever that mess was (and DJT just looked so thrilled listening to that, didn’t he?)...and gee, we have Our Demented Child King receiving ANOTHER medal for something he didn’t earn – how pitiably sad (and it looks like I’d better book my trip to Hollywood Boulevard – heh)...



...and I would advise staying away from sharp objects this Sunday, especially if you want to proclaim yourself emperor for life (you can Google it if you don’t know what I’m talking about).
