Monday Stuff
Brian Tyler Cohen talks about Mango Mussolini getting a a luxury 747 jumbo jet from Qatar for about $400 mil...I know I’ve said this before and I apologize for repeating myself, but I think it matters; we’re just not even going to bother with acknowledging the emoluments clause and just go straight to the full-blown graft and corruption, huh? And of course, if spokes-liar Karoline Leavitt actually told the truth, she would either disintegrate before our eyes or turn into a pillar of salt...and oh yeah, I temporarily forgot about the crypto currency scam from Off Brand Erdogan – more impeachment evidence as far as yours truly is concerned...oh, but the jet is pretty much going to be “laundered” through the Air Force first? Typical for a criminal enterprise (here)...
...and Belle of the Ranch informs us that #47’s tariff tantrum apparently will now extend to Hollywood (a particularly good call on the T-shirt)...lots of good common-sense questions about how the $#@! you would apply a tariff to a movie playing in a theater in this country that was made overseas...a ton of movies are made offshore because of lower production costs; that’s not an endorsement, but a statement of economic reality, which plainly evades the Gropenfuhrer and his cabal of grifters and lowlifes (and yep, it does indeed look like our ruling “Turd Reich” thinks a trade deficit is the same thing as a budget deficit)...
...and sticking with movies, Richard Ojeda of Rebel HQ tells us about the Rev. Caleb Lines, who gave a sermon about our ruling regime (timed for 5/4 and all the “May The Fourth Be With You” business), drawing an actually correct analogy between “Star Wars” with Emperor Palpatine and what’s going on now...Ojeda also draws a parallel to Julius Caesar and how he consolidated power in ancient Rome, which is spot-on also IMO...”If Caesar was the blueprint, Donald Trump is the remix” indeed...
...and Chris Hayes gives us an update on Tufts university student Rümeysa Öztürk (judge ruled that she should be returned to Vermont for a hearing – she was released on bail, fortunately) as well as Trumpers going after other legitimate protests such as the one at Columbia University and NYU, along with UT-Austin (with Trumpist guttersnipe Eric Adams trying to intervene on behalf of our ruling regime)...Hayes says this is the closest thing he’s seen to McCarthyism in his lifetime, and I would agree (and I hope Ozturk and other detainees sue Bronzer Beelzebub’s sorry ass)...
...oh, and this just in – apparently, Cantaloupe Capone had a recent call with Pope Leo XIV (hey, we have to try and find humor somehow, right?)...
...and this song was recorded by Wilson Pickett along with Steve Cropper, “Duck” Dunn and Al Jackson 60 years ago today at the Lorraine Motel, where MLK would be assassinated not quite three years later.
