Well, no one's going to argue that the Republican Senate leadership is the most lazy in all of the D.C. area. But, well, glass houses grandpa. Glass houses.
It's not even noon and I'm awake for some godforsaken reason. Breakfast is some orange juice (they make a version that has lower acidity, and it goes down easier. I should have grabbed a box of what had to be my favorite school cafeteria breakfasts: sausage and pancake corn dogs! Back in high school, I knew it was going to be a good day if breakfast was either pancake and sausage on a stick or breakfast bagel pizza.
I'm still mentally prepping for my appointment tomorrow. As much as I consciously know that it it is incredibly unlikely for the worst possible outcome to happen, I also know tat there are a lot of things that can happen. I'm trying to ignore the balloon that is my knee.
Just catchin-up on last nights events. If trump didn't start blathering until 11pm and went on for a torturous hour it was actually a July 5th fireworks display.
Gah, I can't abide these things with pudding, custard, jellies, creams and so on. It's just sweet, viscous goop to me. Whole ranges of dessert cuisine are closed to me.
Weird, because otherwise, I am far from being a picky eater.
Just waiting for 19th Century Fox to call this pastor a Communist…
PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
No, if there's an ASL interpreter when he's speaking, that means people are going to be paying attention to someone else and not him. And even worse, that someone else is there only for the benefit of people (deaf people) that he considers sub-human.
A long segment with Marc Elias and Hillary Clinton. Pretty good, right up until Hillary starts with "Democrats need to get those republicans to vote for themin the mid-terms." I don't believe the establishment message will work to get those people. I believe what candidates like Zohran messaged DID work. The excuse that "what worked in NYC would work everywhere" just doesn't hold water anymore.
I knew record amounts of glyphosate were being sprayed in California’s forests, much of it in the wake of the megafires that have hit the state in recent years.
But it was hard to fully get a sense of the scale of the destruction until I saw it from the sky.
Are they trying to find a way to blame Trump for the Blue Wave(TM)?
Because even Trump isn't immune from that old saw "conservatism cannot fail, it can only be failed".
So obviously they need a scapegoat for the midterms. But it can't be because everything he's doing is wildly unpopular, because its the Conservative Plan! Which is perfect!
No no, he's failing because of...
Corruption? Yes! Yes! He's failing because of the corruption. We just need a conservative who isn't corrupt. Maybe JD? He doesn't slap gold on everything?
That's why they're all calling us "communists" now. They'll beat that drum until November. He used our national holiday to insult and dehumanize us. They'll ALL follow suit. And fuck off, Carville.
Lots of Americans have allergic reactions to the words "Communist" and "Socialist".
That's why I've been saying that one of the things that has historically prevented Bernie from getting his policies enacted, is that he calls himself a Democratic Socialist. (Especially since his policies are more in line with European Social Democrat parties, than European Democratic Socialist parties.)
Fortunately, that allergy seems to *slowly* wearing off, as demonstrated by AOC, Mamdani, etc. But there are still more than enough people who freak out at those words, to swing the margins.
IOW: Democrats would be wise to embrace the policies, but not the branding.
Apparently Fatberg was surprised at how many people showed up for the Ayatollah's funeral. Don't worry, Dozing Donnie, that is nothing compared to the size of the crowd who will show up to celebrate at your funeral.
I still remember the *global* spontaneous celebrations that broke out when <voice type="Giuliani">ALL THE NETWOOORKS!!!</voice> updated their projection to OHJB winning.
I was stupid enough to think the cult would pretend they didn't vote for him in 2020. I was SO fucking wrong. They doubled down and deluded themselves into thinking that the election was rigged and stollen. The chumps will follow that fucker right off a cliff IMHO.
Unwanted, unloved, uneducated. A lifelong inferiority complex. Parents who booted him from Queens to a reformatory with John Gotti, literally up the river. Poor performance at every schoo.. Zero friends. Relationships with women only through cash or violence. What a life. What a model Republican.

"eldest illegitimate son"
That guy got around a bit.
“That’s . . . not . . . a . . . pudding!” shrieked Ciaobella as the executioner’s axe descended.
(Yes, I know every food in the UK is somehow a pudding.)
Is it a passing or a sandwich?
OT. It's always projection with these people. Not even the Seven Deadly Sins safe.

From Juanita Tolliver --
Happy Fifth of July, y’all!
It’s the day in 1852 when Frederick Douglass delivered his rousing anti-slavery speech.
It’s also the day in 1827 when Black New Yorkers celebrated emancipation — and the debate about how and when to celebrate got a little messy.
Listen to Archival wherever you get your podcasts!

Preach!

Hope that sticks
A Christian nation wouldn't have the death penalty either.
Of TFG and sign language.

Need to combine the wavy hand thing with the middle finger.
Hilarious, but that's probably not it.

What a dick.
Plus they might be signing bad things about him and he'd have no idea.
"Why does the ASL interpreter keep doing the face palm?"
Sadly the ASL for bullshit is very obvious even to those who don't know it.
Happy Nazi Day to those who celebrate.

Folks! Don't forget that Trump says these racist bigots are "good people".
Oh and by the way, how many of those masked thugs are ICE agents? Inquiring minds want to know!!!!
Tuba guy didn't show. Come on, people, step up your game.
Needed sad trombones.
Why did no one hear about this? Did they keep it secret so the real Americans couldn't organize a counter-protest?
It was part of the festivities!
Actually yes, exactly.
They also marched very early in the morning and only very briefly, to avoid getting mobbed by counter protestors.
Pussies.
Chickenshit Nazi pussies.
Note they didn't just bundle into a u haul. They learned their lesson from last time. DC police would have stopped them and charged the driver.
They can learn! Just like normal people! How sweet.
They took the subway.
How “proud” of them, he said sarcastically.

You can't get brainwashed Republicans to vote for Democrats.
No, Hilary. You are a very smart woman, but we are working on GOTV now.
OT: Destroying national forests with glyphosate (Roundup).

He won't pay but Dumb and Dumber will.

To that audience, it means they have to do everything they can to protect him and keep him in power
Brit is a day late and a dollar short.
Also, it is time for him to retire.
Oh, I think FUX is contemplating his "retirement" right now.
You mean he's actually admitting that Turnip is corrupt???? Isn't that blasphemy????
Might be better explained by watching metaphorically motivated rats abandoning their sinking ship.
But I DO NOT forgive them for helping him to begin with.
So I will be over here pouring metaphorical gasoline to float on the surface of the water they are swimming in.
May I ask if you have some metaphorical matches?
Unfortunately I don't. Will this blowtorch do?
He's making them all look bad.
“We gotta keep our phony baloney jobs!”
Just the one kind of corruption then?
EXACTLY
So many to choose from!
Excellent!
You know you made good home made soup when your nose starts to run while you're eating it.
Indeed.
You know you're eating good Thai when your lips start tingling as you eat.

If I don’t make it, someone slap a “trump is a pedo” sticker on the tombstone for me.
Long range laser etching.
Need to work out some bugs but that's the plan.

Adult diapers tend to be bulky, particularly after they've been substantially soiled.

Bustles for men are coming back?
The tick has become so bloated with blood that he cannot detach, and will soon pop.
Bustles are all the rage now!
(scroll down, LS)
I knew I had to hurry on this one! 😆
It doesn't bear thinking about.
The fanny pack where he keeps the extra diapers is sticking out too much.
It's probably not steatopygia. He's packing something back there. Poor old slob.
You can't spell "steatopygia" without "teat." That reminds me, have the unredacted Epstein files been released yet?
When that happens, the dancing in the streets will be epic. Along with the weeping and wailing of his cult.
Then a week later, those same chumps will swear they never voted for him.
I still remember the *global* spontaneous celebrations that broke out when <voice type="Giuliani">ALL THE NETWOOORKS!!!</voice> updated their projection to OHJB winning.

I still think it's funny that the sick old man is the first US President to start a war but couldn't get the "patriots" cheering.
His obsession with crowd sizes in just one of the many, many things I detest about this asshole.
