In Russia, photos take YOU. We've already mentioned that some White House staff were upset about the tricksy Russian photographer who took photos of Wednesday's Oval Office pajama party where Donald Trump, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak got together to listen to sad balalaika music and reminisce about the days when empires could carve up the world without a lot of stupid worries about "human rights." But we didn't realize just what a serious case of butthurt the whole incident set off in the West Wing until we read this hilarious Daily Beast story where two "senior administration officials, one an Obama holdover and the other a Trump appointee," shared their very strong feels about how the photos were a feather in Russia's cap and a big black eye for the administration. All in all, it probably could have gone better.
TASS stands for Telegrafnoje Agentstvo Sovietskovo Soïuza (Telecommunications Agency of the Soviet Union) and is owned by the Russian government. They rebranded it in the 90's, but everyone still calls it TASS. If Trump doesn't know that, he is not fit to be POTUS, but of course we all know that already.
The funniest part of that scene is the tender solicitude with which Bissonnette treats Mr. Muckle, even though he just knows the guy is going to destroy his store.
My favorite Fields film, as you may have guessed, and one of the funniest sound comedies ever.
This is pretty much what I think of trump. From Hunter S. Thompson's obituary of Nixon in Rolling Stone.
"If the right people had been in charge of Nixon's funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles. He was a swine of a man and a jabbering dupe of a president. Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning. Even his funeral was illegal. He was queer in the deepest way. His body should have been burned in a trash bin.
These are harsh words for a man only recently canonized by President Clinton and my old friend George McGovern -- but I have written worse things about Nixon, many times, and the record will show that I kicked him repeatedly long before he went down. I beat him like a mad dog with mange every time I got a chance, and I am proud of it. He was scum."https://www.theatlantic.com...
That's why I love Wonkette. They beat mangy, mad dog trump every chance they get and they're doing themselves and us proud.
Has Donnie clued in yet to the fact that he really is just a Russkie tool? Ha, ha, I am a funny pony, he never will even when the cuffs go on his tiny wrists.
Whoa, so Machiavellian.
"Surely no-one could have predicted that the mere presence of camera crews would ever lead to this tragic outbreak of photography!"

I'm not sure what Trump would make of the Carl LaFong scene except deport him.
Ayup.

Who'd have ever thought we'd need a word for the level below "Amateur"?
Yep, Muckle's the blind guy.

Starring a rogue elephant.
Yup. Fuck them.
Citizens United hadn't happened yet, for the first term.
Trump can't remember shit he just said a moment before. They probably had to put in a backup.

Here's an idea - as soon as he's gone let's all move and not tell him.
Publishing those pics was how they told us they owned him. Rubbing it in, as it were.
people called me a Commie.
Now all you need to say is "I'm with Her"
