Gotham City Digest, 1/14/19

("Hey, babushka, you sure have purty mouth, da?")

     A story making the rounds is that of a furloughed federal worker who now has to ration her insulin and hope she wakes up in the morning. Needless to say, there is absolutely no excuse for this. Border crisis? We don't need protection from migrants, we need protection from the Republican Party.

     What the hell was Trump saying here? We lose 300 Americans a week who escape into Mexico? Because his mind slides from one image to another, he's so incapable of concentrating on anything longer than a goldfish. He seems to be saying Americans wander off into the desert like lost old men. Like this and this and this and this and this...

     And speaking of stupid wall tweets, here's one by an Aryan celebrity hasbeen on the need for a wall with unassailable argument resurrecting nephew who was killed three times.
     Btw, Patton Oswalt's response to this was priceless.

     Tom Nichols of USA TODAY makes some good points re the revelation of the FBI's counterintel probe into Trump and his dealings with and servile behavior toward Russia. And he's right when he states that Il Douche's deferential attitude toward Putin couldn't possibly be for innocent reasons. Trump has the appearance of a kept man when he's anywhere near Putin or even his aides.

     The GOP (Gang of Perverts) just gave a chairmanship to an accused child molester. "(O)ne must question the motive of these three former students," the TN House Speaker said of the accusers.

     Mizz Lindsey got the vapors again.

     House Democrats are now seriously considering subpoenaing Trump's Helsinki interpreter. This would be unprecedented if they did this. But then again, having an actual Manchurian Candidate in the WH is also unprecedented.

     Not only do Russian gangsters own the Republican Party, I'm sure the GOP even gave them the home town discount.

     Starving white tiger has to eat dirt in Chinese zoo. This is no way to treat an animal, especially a beautiful, rare white Bengal tiger.

     Apparently, last September the White House asked the Pentagon to draw up plans to attack Iran. John Bolton is Dick Cheney 2.0. Maybe 1.1.

     Why are we in 53 out of 54 African countries? Especially when we're not at war with any of them?

     There were five proposed deals for a Trump Tower, all failed. And now Congress is eyeing them.

     Yes, people, we are now officially at the point when we can trust the word of drug cartel members more than our own "president's."

     Apparently, CBS couldn't find one black journalist or producer who was qualified to cover the elections.

     I'm amazed this obscene exchange between Trump and Putin didn't get more coverage than it had.

     Naturally, 68% of right wing nut jobs blame Democrats for the shutdown despite the House passing FOUR BILLS to reopen the goddamned government. It really is breathtaking how stupid Republicans are.

     Trump actually told Jeanine Pirro, "I haven't left the White House in months." Really? Was that a body double in Texas last Friday?

     Pirro also asked Trump if he is or had ever worked for Russia and he snapped it was the most insulting thing he'd ever been asked.
      Wait'll he talks to Mueller and his team. Then they can ask him why he'd kept the details of his talks with Putin even from his own White House aides and advisors even to the point of confiscating his interpreter's notes.

     He'll be popular every night, especially in Leavenworth's showers.

     Of course Veselnitskaya won't come here to fight the charges, just as I predicted.

     Ben Cardin, Chuck Schumer and all the Senate Democrats desperately tried to keep the government open last month. Mitch McConnell blocked all such motions, claiming keeping the government open was a political stunt and that Israel was more important than keeping our own government open. Trump may own this shutdown but McConnell holds the mortgage.
      By the way, where is Mitch? Someone should file a missing person's report on Mitch McConnell. On second thought...
     ...nah.

     Trump says he'd been tougher on Russia than any other president.
     Is that so, Manchurian Candidate? Let's take stock:
     Obama placed sanctions on Russia. You lifted them.
     Obama opposed Putin in Syria. You warned him ahead of airstrikes.
     Obama expelled Russian diplomats. You let them in the Oval Office and kicked out US media.
     Obama signed the Magnitsky Act and froze assets of mobsters. You let them elect you.
     In short, fuck you, you disingenuous Velveeta Hitler. The only time you've been tough with Putin is maybe during the backstroke.

     By January 2013, Trump had two Russian mobsters living at and running their criminal empires out of Trump Tower and a third, Felix "Mr. Stabby Face" Sater, was a regular there. And Trump thought we were stupid enough to believe him when he said he had nothing to do with Russia, "no deals, nothing." Then Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance was about to charge him and Ivanka on felony larceny and fraud charges.
      The charges were mysteriously dropped when Trump also dropped $25,000 into his campaign war chest.

     I don't think Tulsi Gabbard has a chance in hell of getting elected president (can anyone remember the last time a congressman got elected to that office? It wasn't during our lifetime). But she nails Trump on this.

     Even right wing nut bag Sam Nunberg thinks Trump's going down in flames.

     If Mueller's team demanded, and got, classified information on this, it can't possibly be good for Trump. Yes, the FBI back in May 2017 began a counterintel investigation into our so-called president.

     How can the cash-strapped NRA keep finding the money to do media blitzes for Republican scumbags? One word- Rubles.

     So now, Rudy wants to "correct" Mueller's final report. Why stop at that? Fucking A, let's "correct" the judge's or grand jury's conviction, while we're at it. I swear, the older Giuliani gets, the more he reminds me of a rat with alopecia.

     Why are authors making less money than ever? Executives and shareholders of $25,000,000,000 a year business shrug their shoulders.

     So 57% of Americans are "criminals" because we don't want the stupid wall. Trump wants you to think about one big wall and not the four small ones that'll be his new home soon.

     Electoral fraud? Shocking, I know, especially since this is North Carolina, that last bastion of voter enfranchisement. And finally...

     After that nine minute-long Oval Office debacle last week, you'd think those morons at CBS would've learned not to give this rolling dumpster fire more oxygen. But noooooo.
