I am pretty sure that making sure baby blankets change planes is not part of a pilot's job description. Of course, obsessing about a blanket and firing someone over it is not part of Noem's job description either, but she is an overachiever in her own special way.
I know that the coasties are now under DHS but I didn’t think that lewdandkrispy (my portmanteau is still a work in progress) was in the chain of command and could fire active duty coasties for forgetting her blankie.
"Trump's goddamn name will need to be purged when he's gone. When he dies, we need to rid our nation of his monuments like they were Confederate statues made of Nazis." -- The Rude Pundit
"Oh, Secretary Noem, I am so grateful you gave me a second chance. I've been so depressed lately, like I could just end it all. You ever feel that way? Like there's no reason to keep your wings up?"
Sadly, we are seeing the culmination of so much propaganda that has turned American against American. They have even convinced people to hate workers who have pensions much to the delight of the oligarchs and shareholders who can get even more money 💰. Keeping us distracted and divided is their superpower.
If I were that pilot, I would have booked my own flight home inside of 15 minutes and left them out there with their new plane and no blanket or pilot.
One of the (oh so many) things I despise about this timeline, is having to see Corey Lewandowski's name in any story, for any reason, ALL THE TIME. Ugh. He needs to be shoved in a jail cell and forgotten about (as they all do).
Interesting how it is the Ladies Trump Co is embussing. I wonder if they hired them to say we're not sexist! Really! But they were supposed to retire after a few months, but they got to like the sweet grift too much and refused to.
Moe’s lie detector is one of the best Simpson’s scenes ever. First, the machine explodes when Homer is asked if he understands he’s going to be asked some questions. Hilarious.
I’ve known a few Corey’s in my life. Arrogant, insufferable, unhappy, and disliked by nearly everyone. The guy is full of angry bluster, which is useful to this administration. Even so, he’s so toxic he’s been desperately, barely clinging to the fringes of the Trump regime for years.
It’s sad Barbie lost her binky. It really is. I had a ratty old baby blanket I dragged around with me while I sucked my thumb until I was 9 years old. By then I was doing it secretly, after school, like an addict. It was actually my first day of 3rd grade when I came home and put it away for the last time. Now I read that many people, including adults of all ages, use a stuffy or special blanket for comfort or to fall asleep. I’m all for it. I read an article written by a psychologist who endorsed it. My wife is 40 and sleeps with a stuffed dog I bought her for a gift years ago. My son is 7 and sleeps with his “cozy kitty,” a stuffed cat and a stuffed owl that plays music. I’m fine with him finding comfort in that as long as he likes. Life is scary and hard enough without some stuffed animals.
But as much as Trump may try to protect his special boys and girls, he can’t protect them from each other. When you hire the most entitled, backbiting, drama-driven antisocial pukes on the planet, it’s a hazard!
I would also add that his cabinet is more like a junk drawer !!!
Agreed. They changed writers and directors after certain seasons and you can certainly tell. For me, seasons 1-10 are fantastic. Season 1 and 2 are a little primitive and unrefined. By season 3 they were firing on all cylinders. There are some great episodes in season 2, but seasons 3-10 are prime Simpsons. I’ll stream those episodes until my time runs out.
Gossip is too popular in today’s world. We are regressing as a people.
I thought you were joking when you said she had a special blanket.

Damnatio Memoriae, as done with Caligula (Bootikins), Nero and Domitian.
If I was that pilot, I’d have told them to fly themselves home.
God damn! Elisa Slotkin would be our president if we weren't stuck in this dystopian hellscape.
I wish the pilot had gone ahead and taken the commercial flight home.
Better yet, put on a performance.
"Oh, Secretary Noem, I am so grateful you gave me a second chance. I've been so depressed lately, like I could just end it all. You ever feel that way? Like there's no reason to keep your wings up?"
Just like that Germanwings pilot.
Right? Go fly the plane right into your gravel pit, I'm out.

Maybe 30 to 40 percent still wiggle their dicks in his general direction, but even they are feeling the burn of their shitty existence.
Our very own Uncivil War. Or Dark (Orange?) Ages.
OT question for the BatCave crew.
Is there any way to move, or add, "Return to thread" link to the end of a subthread?
As an enthusiastic consumer of all the Wonkette commentaries, I rarely give up after one or two. Even though Wonkette doesn't allow comments.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Release all of Trump-Epstein Files.
Fuck Ted Cruz.

Imagine how Trashelle Odom feels about that!
And who the hell would name their daughter Trashelle?
Marcie is right tho. After last seasons episode of apprentice president, he learned to not fire anyone. The creeps are staying.

Would be irresponsible not to speculate

I loved the coda of this post :

Working for trumpy is not a revolving door. It's a blender.
From when the Simpsons was funny.
