A few items to clean up from earlier in the week:
– It is said that Hope Hicks was on Air Force One because Trump wants her on his 2020 campaign.
– In a flagrant case of chain migration and aliens slipping through our borders it is now a known fact that one couple got visas to come to this country under the pretense of having special skills. They didn’t. Now they have become U.S. citizens because of their anchor baby. Where is the outrage from the right? Let’s march. Let’s protest. Throw them over the wall, and their daughter too. Take that fat f*ck of a son-in-law with you.
Welcome Melania Trump’s parents to the U.S.ofA. as full citizens. See if you can get your dopey son-in-law to take the test you had to take for citizenship. I bet he fails.
– Speaking of failing, did you know only 30% of young people today can pass the math and reading tests to get into the military? Go Betsy DeVos.
Okay, kinda caught up. If you happened to hear Senator Ben Nelson from Florida say earlier this week that the Russian military intelligence units (the GRU) have breached the computers of the Florida election system in some counties in Florida, Georgia, and one other state. How does Rick Scott governor of Florida respond? “Didn’t happen. Nelson is crazy.”
Who ya gonna believe? How would Rick Scott know? What did he do, call up someone in the bumf*ck county election commission in Florida and ask, “Hey, did any Russian commies wander into your computer?”
What’s our defense? None. That’s not true. We have people like Rick Scott saying it didn’t happen. We have Republicans in Congress you have doubled down in sticking their heads in the sand and their supporters seem to say, “Hey, as long as it helps us, we’re okay with it.” (“Order some more of them ` I’d rather be Russian than Democrat ‘ tee-shirts, will ya?”)
In other news:
Remember that wedding planner of Melainia’s who got $26M and no one knew what she did to earn that money? Rumor is that she paid off the Apprentice guy to keep the show’s outtakes out of the public eye.
The Playboy Bunny (everyone now says “model”) who had the affair with Trump is on the cover of Men’s Journal. This as a guise to say the publisher and pal of Trump who owns the National Enquirer really wanted her story about her workout routine for $130,000. Yeah, nothing to see here. Was she contacted about this? No. Didn’t she do a photoshoot for the cover? No, they used old photos they had. What about the workout routine? Nope, they cobbled together some old stuff. ie She was never asked. The publisher overruled the staff, who objected to the whole thing. Moving on…
Seems Mueller is closing in on Roger Stone. Three of his “associates” have been asked to come in and talk to Mueller’s people: the madam, some blowhard dj media type who claims to be a journalist, and a guy reputed to be a painter, named Miller. Turns out Miller keeps not showing up, even after being subpoenaed. Now he want immunity. Something about superpacs.
BTW saw a picture from the 1980s of three young bucks working for the Republicans. From left to right they were: Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, and Lee Atwater. All dirty underhanded cheating bastards.
Trump is picking a fight with NFL players over their kneeling during the National Anthem. Hey, turns out he told a staffer that he was going to do this just before the election because he figured it would help turn out his base. A group is now trying to get the fans who come to the games to have a “kneel in.” Imagine if whole stadiums start kneeling?
Former Apprentice contestant Omerosa has a book coming out about Trump. She claims his mental state is declining and that he used the “N” word a lot while taping the Apprentice. Yeah, well so what? Huh, she says she has tapes to back up every claim she has made in the book – interesting.
Carl Bernstein has a book coming out too; same day as Omerosa’s – interesting? Well, researched and thought out no doubt. Who cares?
Meanwhile, the internet is alive with photoshopped pics of the first Space Force Crew. I like Sarah Sanders as Chewbacca.
Well, that’s it for now.
Is Jay North still around? How about his son? We need Rocky and Bullwinkle more than ever.
If you haven’t seen it, I urge you to catch “Our Cartoon President.” Stephen Colbert has something to do with the show. It’s the closest thing to truth we’ll get about this administration.
