Franz Kafka had no idea how low humanity could sink into farce. No fucking idea.

"Some critics have mocked Machado after she was spotted leaving the White House with the red bag.“It gets even more embarrassing for Machado….she went to the White House to give Trump her medal and left with a Trump merch bag,” a popular X account wrote.

It was not immediately clear what was inside the bag, or whether the contents were a gift from Trump. Trump has installed a “gift shop right outside installed right outside of the Oval Office.”

Doesn’t the Nobel Prize come with money, you know, like Kroner? Isn’t “Presidenta” Machada (it really is easy to rhyme Spanish!) keeping the kroner? You know, Unca Donald, ya done got played, yuk yuk yuk.

What if Machado gave him a copy? What if the original Peace Prize is sitting safely somewhere far from the United States?

Would Chump know? Would he believe you if you told him?

Let's tell him anyway.

Well, the thing he showed off to the camera had his name on it, so obviously they created it.

"the most unworthy loser who ever got flushed down the failure toilet in God’s people factory and accidentally ended up shooting out of a vagina on Earth." Yuppity yup.

Saw that exact same thing at U-FRAME-IT!

Technically, the medal falls under the emoluments clause and he will need permission from Congress to keep it.

Not that anyone expects him to ask for it.

But you don’t have the coveted 8 1/2 x 11 Certificate of Appreciation from Ft Cavasos Caisson Horse Stables for shoveling the most Horse Manure in a single quarter. That, boys and girls, must be earned. No stolen valor allowed.

"but she’s really debasing the fuck out of herself, either because she actually cares about her own people and wants to use it as leverage, or because she’s not a very good Nobel Peace Prize winner herself. Dunno."

Kissinger was a recipient so that prize has been EFFECTIVELY meaningless since then. Lotta good people have gotten it since, but the brand is meaningless as an indicator of anything

Is there a sad thing I don't know about Omar Shariff or Mickey Rourke that I don't want to know?

:(

Are or were they "of the cult"?

What A Debacle's avatar

We selected Omar because he just looks so damn Central Casting... even in death. Saw Mickey Rourke on Fox News and he needs a job.

Trump is jerb creator.

Why isn’t Grimace on the Board? Are the Mets just keeping him too busy?

Oompa Loompa, do-ba-dee-doo,

I've got another puzzle for you.

Oompa Loompa, do-ba-da-dee,

If you are wise you'll listen to me.

Who do you blame when your kid is a brat

Pampered and spoiled like a Siamese cat?

Blaming the kids is a lie and a shame

You know exactly who's to blame:

The mother and the father!

Oompa Loompa do-ba-dee-da,

If you're not spoiled then you will go far.

You will live in happiness too,

Like the oompa loompa do-ba-dee-doo.

“…the Board of Peace has been formed. The members will be announced as soon as Stephen Miller shits them out of his cloaca.”

What a flurry of angry thoughts in my brain today! Putin still has a Superbowl ring, Donnie wants to own Greenland, not protect it, and the Board of Peace will be the inquisitors who decide which Palestinians will be spared to do laundry in Jared's luxury beach resorts.

"But Trump is big on claiming awards he didn’t earn or deserve"

Especially

ESPECIALLY

If they are of gold

Warren's avatar

Channukah must be hell at Ivanka and Jared’s house. Spinning the dreidel must be a blood sport. Bet DJT has a custom dreidel, which is loaded to always land on Gimmel for him. The golden chocolate coins all belong to him.

"...Dear Leader has won 10,000 golf tournaments at golf clubs he owns that allow him to carry the ball directly to the hole in his little bitty tiny fingers."

ARe you kidding? Even driving his gold cart up onto the greens ( something he has been pictured doing, even tho' that's damaging to the green ), carrying his ball to the hole 10,000 times si much too much of an effort for him.

He handed the balls to his caddies.
