Tuesday Stuff


Jesse Dollemore lets us know that it looks like the Gropenfuhrer is in a snit with Pope Leo based on that typically bonkers rant from our *preznit on Truth Septic; yeah, I’m sure #47 will come out on top in that one...”weak on borders, weak on crime,” yadda yadda; the usual lying horsesh*t from Our Treasonous Orange Pestilence...and what would more madness with Pumpkin Pol Pot be without another utterly insane online meme, this time with you-know-who as Our Lord...and I know Bri-Fi came up with this statement in opposition, which to me is still weak sauce because our wet noodle PA-01 rep HAS SAID AND DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO OPPOSE HIS BOSS UP TO NOW...besides, I’m not aware of ANY REPUBLICAN who criticized the Tangerine Toddler when he referred to the Holy Eucharist as “my little cracker” here...and I’m not going to try and unpackage the utter madness of claiming that religious leaders were arrested for not social distancing during COVID, but I AM going to mention that this orange yutz has NO RIGHT WHATSOEVER to tell those in charge of congregations how to manage their duties since our gnat-brain-on-meth chief executive tried to remove sanctuary status from those places of worship as noted here (NSFW/H)...



...and turning to the economy, David Doel informs us that a worker in Ontario, California filmed himself setting fire to the Kimberly-Clark warehouse where he was employed which contained what appears to be toilet paper, complaining about how he was underpaid...I don’t encourage violence or destruction to people and/or property, but I think it’s actually surprising that stuff like this doesn’t happen more often, to be honest...that video by the TikTok guy at about 5:24 should be required viewing for everyone in this country, and that includes every damn politician...oh, and CEOs are making 281 times as much as the average for a salaried worker in that same company (and as Doel says, we’re just talking about income, not wealth)...and for truly dark satire, we also get CNBC’s Sara (“How Does An Investor Process The Potential End Of A Civilization”?) Eisen, one of the dimmer of the dim bulbs in corporate media it appears...by the way, as a side note, Kimberly-Clark is the company where ruthless corporate raider “Chainsaw Al” Dunlap got his start (NSFW/H also)...



...and Richard Ojeda of Rebel HQ tells us about Eric Bolling lamenting how the electoral fortunes are looking for Repugs in November; of course, we can take absolutely nothing for granted and need to keep working to make the “blue wave” happen, but I must tell you that wingnut tears are delicious...and again, the percentage points in favor of Dems in polling is undeniable, particularly in Wisconsin, where the “D” team expanded their majority on the state supreme court (and I would guess that’s part of the reason why that idiot RoJo has been all over the place on Fix Noise lately)...also included is a clip of Rachel Maddow discussing with Dem Senator Mark Warner how the Gropenfuhrer may try declaring another bogus “national emergency,” claiming foreign interference in the ’20 election (how con-vee-nient) as an excuse to try and take over the vote this fall...



...and I try to do my part to get the word out on “Team D” for a lot of reasons, chief of which is because the other side is totally nuts, but that doesn’t mean that we can forget about getting our own political house in order, as it were – this man on X (courtesy of Bill Madden) has some cautionary advice on that subject (NSFW/H as well)...


...and Jimmy Kimmel lets us know about the Gropenfuhrer going off on Truth Septic about Bruce Springsteen because of course, and over Pope Leo as previously noted...and oh yeah, #47 also met with that server over his “No Taxes On Tips” deal (kind of sad that that grandma is forced to work to pay for her husband’s health care - here) – the whole “no taxes on tips” thing isn’t bad I’ll admit (something anyway), but what would REALLY make a difference is setting a federal standard for tipped hourly wages...for example, the tipped hourly wage in Wisconsin is $2.33 per hour, and while employers are required to make up the difference between that and the federal wage of $7.25 (which is still too low), what happens if they don’t? How the hell is ANYBODY supposed to exist in this country on $2.33 an hour?...I sincerely hope one day when this treasonous orange yam’s days on this earth come to an end (and I don’t wish to hasten that, I mean to emphasize), I hope someone chisels on his headstone words to the effect that any notion of character or decency concerning this individual is “fake news,” which, as we know, is his go-to insult for any news whatsoever that he doesn’t like...and oh yeah, #47 has time to compliment that MMA fighter and pose with a brainless young woman at one of his golf courses, all while our military deployed to fight his damn war is likely wondering what the hell is going on...also, it looks like Don The Con lost another lawsuit; this time, a judge dismissed the action aimed at the Murdoch Street Journal over the Gropenfuhrer’s birthday message to his best bud Jeffrey Epstein (and I care less than nothing about anything Melania has to say)...



Update 1: This sure figures (for anybody still on X).

Update 2: For non-X folks (here).

...and RIP session guitarist Wayne Perkins, who performed on this number along with many others.
