People often forget just how many wackaloon right-wingers there are in California as well. Recall the state elected Ronald Reagan Governor - For the late 1960s!! And there's plenty in Los Angeles (and San Francisco) too; "Lefty Hollywood" is largely a right-wing invention.

All these rumors of crashed UFOs only prove that the aliens must have their own Elon Musk.

Parakeetist's avatar

I kind of hope there are aliens.

Maybe they might be friendly.

The aliens in "Close Encounters" were among the few characters from space who were treated in a positive way - they came here to teach us.

Apparently trump casually threatened to bomb our nominal ally Oman during his cabinet meeting.

That must have been where the dart Steven Miller threw at the map landed in the brief pre-briefing meeting. The Saudi's lucked out once again.

Indeed. Also Killary.

HuffPost: "White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller suggested Wednesday that James Talarico is not sufficiently masculine to run for Senate in Texas in a bizarre transphobic attack.

"The Democrats made history in Texas by nominating their first transgender senate candidate," Miller wrote on social media.

The Democratic National Committee responded to Miller with a mean tweet of its own: "shut up you ugly fuck."

The gay-baiting is going to be out of control in this campaign.

Ooh, too bad about Selma Blair — she was hella cute in that Hellboy movie.

John Bel Edwards in his first ad against Viter went into the diaper fetish. Paxton has a shit ton more disgusting personal details that Talarico needs to joyously exploit early and hard.

Land Shark 🇺🇦 🏳️‍⚧️'s avatar

In Talarico's case, he merely needs to show the headline and cite the commandment.

Paxton's broken all but one of them... as far as we know.

WTF would anyone vote for an influencer, snake oil salesman, reality show star, or whatever the hell they call themselves so as to not ever get a real job? And especially since the current POTUS was (and still is) all of those things and has fucked up things royally.

Apollyon Danish's avatar

What do you mean "has fucked up things royally?" For the right people, he has created some incredible revenue streams. It's only when you consider the majority, the people who aren't completely irredeemable shitweasels, that things can be considered fucked.

Except he can't have The Ramones.

Far-white American society is committing a national murder-suicide rather than share society's wealth and equality with women, black, brown, and LGBTQ+ people. Seems to be the trend.

Name recognition. Refer to Carlin’s remarks on below-average intelligence.

eppe's avatar

That also explains why high volume lawyers are willing to shell out for roadside billboards and TV commercials

Also this is a culture that valorizes con men and snake oil salesmen.

I vaguely remember The Hills because Jezebel used to write about these people a lot back in the day. IIRC nobody liked Spencer and he convinced his girlfriend Heidi to get 10 cosmetic surgeries done at once.

Anyway, sounds like he hasn't improved.

Jake Tapper reminds you that Biden is old.

I don't know what meds they have Trump on, but when my dad was suffering from early stages of Parkinson's, he'd fall asleep all the time.

Then they tweaked the dosages or schedules of some things and that issue got better.

VwllssWndr's avatar

He's probably built up a tolerance to stuff after years of party drugs.

SkeptiKC's avatar

My father suffered from Parkinson's disease and demonstrated the same.

He finds obsequious praise very soothing

He was supposed to be discussing WAR with Hegseth, Rubio, et al. Hegseth was speaking while Trump was nodding out.

What makes a celebrity turn MAGA? Lust for gold? Power? Or were they just born with a heart full of MAGAlity?

Racism, low intelligence, and medium-level wealth which they anxiously protect, making them susceptible to nonsense like "illegal immigrants are voting for higher taxes for hard-working real Americans like you."

Pretty much the same as the non-famous asshats...

They carefully weigh the arguments of both sides and come to a logical, reasonable conclusion.

OT. So you know when you go out back and just walking past your chickens and they have food and water and you call them but only 2 or 3 come over? And 2 or 3 others look at you like

you bumped your head or something. And the rest ignore you?

Well, that is Wall St today. Dow is clucking nicely over 50k and Russell scratching up for lost food, so mostly ok. But S&P, Nasdaq, gold, Bitcoin and oil down. What is their problem?

Isn't AI saving the world yet? Too early?

And bushels of Peace all over Hormuz, the Gulf, and all everywhere's ?

Well, dang. I guess chickens aren't the smartest, little dinosaurs as they are.

Top Israeli official vows to derail Trump's peace deal

As Israel launched a new bombardment of Lebanon on Tuesday, its far-right security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, suggested that it was trying to derail ongoing peace negotiations between US President Donald Trump and Iran.

“I know that Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu and all of us members of the Cabinet... as the government of Israel, cannot allow this to happen,” Ben-Gvir said in Hebrew. “This is an agreement that can harm the state of Israel, and we will not allow this to happen.”

Derailing Trump's Peace Deal would involve finding a Trump Peace deal. Oy vey!
