Xanderhal brings us the story of Our Treasonous Orange Pestilence trying to stage a birthday parade with about 6,600 or 7,000 soldiers, and that depends on the estimate, as well as all kinds of armaments, probably including tanks, missile launchers, etc., ”the most dictator-y thing ever” indeed...good point about how the parade in France is for the storming of the Bastille, and Bronzer Boy definitely doesn’t get that history I know (and wouldn’t appreciate it even if he did)...I didn’t notice how the red hat is a tipoff to Trump maintaining that he still won the election in ’20...and I’ll make a note in case Combover Caligula does indeed start talking about a “fourth term,” and if that happens I’ll give Xan credit for it...as I watched this clip, I found it impossible to NOT think of the parade at the end of “National Lampoon’s Animal House” (NSFW/H)...
Update 5/18/25: Good one by Jack Ohman here.
...and speaking of graft to benefit Dear Orange Leader (were we?), Thom Hartmann informs us of a Chinese company on TikTok with no revenue that just bragged about paying off Bronzer Beelzebub, claiming they were going to spend about $300 mil on “Dollar Trump” coins, which I believe is a “meme” coin, though I admit that I’m not an expert on this stuff...and OF COURSE, that beyond ridiculous tariff on China magically drops from 145 percent to 30 percent...didn’t we used to fight wars with countries over extortion like this?...
...and Sam and Emma of The Majority Report inform us that Our Ochre Abomination just removed temporary protected status for Afghanistan refugees (people who risked their lives to help us during that forever war)...remember that this August when Repugs start screeching again about the anniversary of Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan in which 13 of our service people died (Trump basically tied Biden’s hands on the deal as noted here)...oh, but let’s give protected status to white South African farmers who are supposedly being persecuted and having their land taken from them (I know you’ll be absolutely shocked to hear that Pumpkin Pol Pot is LYING ONCE AGAIN – the reality perspective is here)...
...and I realize I’m a little behind on this, but I didn’t want to let it slip by...Kyle Kulinski tells us about “Bobby Brainworms” swimming in toxic sewage with his grand kids in Rock Creek in D.C. (I hope to God those kids don’t develop tumors later, but if that happens, remember this idiocy)..a minor point I know, but who the $#@! would name their kids Bobcat, Kick and Cassius? And I have to admit that I’ve never heard of “methylene blue”...also, good point about the anti-vaxxers taking other drug treatments that they’re apparently OK with...just a tad bit inconsistent on that one...and in a related story, kudos to Dem U.S. Senator Angela Alsobrooks for this (NSFW/H also)...
...and I thought this was a particularly good segment from John Oliver on the Alliance Defending Freedom...and why should we be surprised that a charter school in Oklahoma wants to teach religion and take public dough...and gee, you’d think the ADF and their fellow travelers would be taking a victory lap over Dobbs, but out of nowhere comes this spokesperson off-camera saying that, no, we’re not allowed to comment...what cowards (but “winsome” cowards for sure)...and I think “Christian love, Christian love, kill, kill, kill” is the best way to sum up these whited sepulchers of the ADF...and this clip tells me how the phrase “the homosexual agenda” originated, which I always wondered about, actually (cue the eye roll...)...didn’t know there were links from the ADF to “MAGA Mike” Johnson and Amy Coney Island Baby Barrett, but it fits the profile...and Kristen Waggoner is just Anita Bryant 2.0 without the orange juice...clip also gives us the story on the cake maker in Colorado who wouldn’t make a gay cake, as if that’s really that big of a thing, and the fact that his case made its way to the SCOTUS is way beyond pathetic, along with the woman who was supposedly asked to make a gay web site (spoiler alert: she wasn’t, but the SCOTUS took up her case anyway)...more on the American College of Pediatricians is here (NSFW/H as well...hope you have your head phones)...
...and Farron Cousins gives us more gory details on the ridiculous and pointless trade war from Cantaloupe Capone...we learn about Morgan McGarvey (the only Dem in the U.S. delegation from Kentucky) who is telling everyone his state/commonwealth will lose “tens of millions” with Canada over bourbon...and yes, Rand Paul made noises about trying to end the tariff war, but that was all (more is here)...
...and staying below that Mason-Dixon line, Tennessee Brando tells us about Repugs deciding to buckle down on town halls after the backlash they’ve quite rightly gotten...looks like Knox County, TN is going to have a Repug-only town hall (and I believe it already took place); I’d like to look down my nose at those folks over that, but in good conscience I can’t since, even though that’s an idiotic idea, that at least isn’t as bad as chicken Bri-Fi in PA-01 who won’t even come out of his hidey hole to meet his constituents in person...and I’ve heard nothing but good things about Gloria Johnson also...and yeah, I think we’re all sick of the “Dollar General Hillbilly Trumps” for sure (still another NSFW/H clip)...
...and I’m overdue for a newer tune, so let’s kick-start the weekend with this one, OK?
