Three shirts can’t watch White Power Hour?

"Tortured?" He's being ... tortured?

As a fan of the Flashman novels, I'm suddenly remembering the exchange in "Flashman in the Great Game" between the great cad and coward himself, and his Russian enemy Ignatieff, when Flashman says, "What if all these people knew the charming Russian noble ... was a devil who tortures prisoners of war?" Ignatieff, poker-faced, answers, "If you think that you were tortured, Colonel Flashman, then I congratulate you upon your ignorance."

Steve Bannon Being 'Tortured' In Prison

So what's the downside?

When Roodles goes to jail, I hope his cell is overrun by ferrets.

He'll be DTing way too hard to focus his eyes on the ferrets.

It is so funny to see this because I was lurking on Axios (I know, I am sorry, I like their Israeli reporter Barack Ravid and I stay for the junk food reporting), and I read that Andy Biggs was on Bannon's "War Room" podcast last week. I was wondering how he could air a podcast if he couldn't even go online. However, I believe he has some lackey doing the podcast. I didn't check because there was no way I was giving those people my email address, but the name under the episodes seems like an attentive assistant's handle.

Ta, Robyn. I've always loathed and detested Roodles the Clown. What's left of his brain is deliquescing.

But did they let him watch the Democratic National Convention? That's what I want to know.

Whoa, little Stevie (Four Shirts) Bannon, noted insurrectionist, is being denied the right to watch inflammatory anti-American propaganda while in prison? If he were an arsonist, would that damn drunk Rudy be whining about him being denied matches? If Bannon was convicted of child molestation, would Giuliani and Pillow Boy be rabble rousing about him being deprived of access to children? On what planet and in which parallel universe does this make any fucking sense?

Not enough (intentionally vague here) stuff can happen to Steve Bannon. It’s good for what’s left of his brain to not watch his own show and thus find out how badly Rudy is fucking it up.

Bannon is a rectal fissure and Rudy and Mike should form a variety show act, like Martin and Lewis, to raise money for their creditors and victims. Rudy can drink scotch while Mike powders his nose, then they can offer people $5 million to prove the earth is round.

Are they hosing him down or something?

With what, would be my question. I don't think water would get near him.

So it's torture now, and not "enhanced interrogation techniques?" Where's John Yoo when you need him?

I don't give a flying fuck in space. You got off easy. Every one of your asses should be rotting in Gitmo. Wanna talk about torture now?

Rethugs are always being picked on and it's not fair! Waaah!

Life isn't fair, Princess! Anyone who tells you different is trying to sell you something.

You don't remember? Too much alcohol will harm the memory, Giuly baby. If you have any brain cells left they've probably gone into rehab.
