Gotham City Digest

(Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum make a comeback.)

     Just say Nyet to Moscow Mitch. Da, tovarisch, da.

     "Greenland's ice sheet just lost 11 billion tons of ice -- in one day." We are so screwed.

     I don't know who this Andrew Bolt asshole is, but there's got to be a special place in Hell for those, including Murdoch "journalists", who do character assassination pieces on autistic kids like Greta Thunberg.

     Here's an idea- Instead of stealing from veteran retirement funds like a furtive scumbag thief in the night, how about we instead earmark money that was going to the MIC? Like, say, the failed F-35?

     Really, Dallas? Bulletproof backpacks? Yeah, great idea, unless your kid gets shot in the head or chest. Or if you're in the El Paso Wal-Mart. Still better than the horror of gun control, yes?

     Fred Trump not using a condom with Mary in 1945 was a crime against humanity.

     No money for NHS, child hunger, homelessness or heating subsidies. But THIS they magically have £10 million for, as well as bribing the DUP.

     "I will cure AIDS and kid cancers!" And the red-hatted peasants rejoiced...

     Maybe our schoolkids should be taking notes on her tactics.

     Nowadays, by more money in politics, #MoscowMitch means rubles.

     If this had happened to Brad Thor, David Horowitz would be screaming so loudly he'd shake the pigeon shit off the rafters.

     She's absolutely right. After accidentally hearing "Achy Breaky Heart", I immediately wanted to buy a Ford F-150, marry my cousin then cry in a Pearl beer.

     This is good news, obviously. But I think what eluded jurors' minds is what thrust this child into such a depraved and dangerous world to begin with. She was abused by a system then abused by another system. Then it took the snake pit of social media, of all things, to give Cyntoia Brown any realistic hope for clemency.

     Imagine going to law school for six years, serving as a clerk for years, then more years as an attorney then get promoted to a judge just you can talk to three year-olds who don't understand a word you say?

     Charlie Pierce strikes again. "(C)hub-fingered creep El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago." Heh.

     Boris Johnson is such a shambling intellectual homunculus of an assclown, his stench is even beginning to waft and metastasize across the pond to the States. He's lost a seat in Parliament faster than anyone since Asquith 111 years ago (11 days to 16). A majority of one is hardly a mandate, is it?

     It used to be we'd pay perfectly good money for fiction in bookstores & Broadway. Now we do so at Trump rallies.

     Too bad America's intelligence quotient had degenerated to the point where we thought a child molester & rapist would be a good fit in the Oval Office.

     So naturally, Trump's asshole shysters will look for a loophole to exploit or split some hair because these dirty cocksuckers can't and won't take no for an answer. And court orders are only as good as their enforcement. And it's obvious, to look at the actions of ICE and CBP, that they're fully on board with Trumpolini's fascist agenda. How many deadlines, Congressional subpoenas and court orders have we seen this crime syndicate of an administration ignore and with complete and utter impunity?

     Wow, that was fast.
     Of course, it's all the "lamestream media's" fault.
     Wah wah.

     I've posted links to the various book bars that are springing up all over the country. But this is one of the coolest ones I've ever read about.

     Go get him, Chief.

     Kavanaugh cleared  of 83 ethics violations. Permanently.  My my, wasn't THAT convenient?

     Someone made a font out of gerrymandered districts. Hilarious. And sad.

     When Fox News, FOX NEWS of all places, starts fact-checking Trump...

     #MoscowMitch gets his reward.

     "We're all tired of being called racists!" says the invariably white crowd of screaming racist snowflakes.

     Nobody and nothing exists outside of Trump. He is simply the most insecure and self-absorbed piece of shit on the planet earth.

     Watch Donnie Dumbo try to make hay out of this. You know, the one who's lost at least six or seven dozen staffers and officials in the first two and a half years of his squattage in the Oval Office.

      MAGAts: "Shoot them!"
      Trump: "LOL!"
      Saturday, immigrants got shot in El Paso. Three Mexican citizens killed, six more wounded.
      Trump on Twitter next day: "Thoughts and prayers."
      We should impeach him just for this. He's yelling fire in a crowded theater that isn't on fire.

     This is exactly what Hitler would've done.

     Looks like these redneck hillbillies took down their Facebook page like the right wing snowflakes they are.

     To my peeps in Alabama, if you're in this asshole's district, remember this on election day.

     At least he's got his priorities straight and is focusing on the biggest problem: Himself.

     "In 2003, when Paris Hilton’s sex tape was leaked on the internet, Donald wouldn’t stop talking about it, saying, “Paris is laughing all the way to the bank, she’s got the last laugh, she’s marvelous.” Ivanka could not believe her father was not only idolizing an airhead heiress caught blowing a guy on a night-vision video but encouraging her to follow Paris’s lead."

     I wouldn't be happy about Mitch McConnell breaking his shoulder. But I have to wonder about the scare quotes around "falls" and "injury."

     We have now had a mass shooting every day this weekend. This makes 252 in all in 216 days.

     Mick Mulvaney, the NRA, Chris Kobach and the rest of the right wing nut jobs channeling Goebbels seriously need to go fuck themselves. That shooter's manifesto wasn't an echo of Trump's language. It was a loud refrain of it.

     Cloudfare parts ways with 8chan. It's about Goddamned time.

     Right wing nut job o' the day. “After every mass shooting, the liberals start the blame game,” (Candice) Keller wrote in the Facebook post, which had been removed as of early Monday. “Why not place the blame where it belongs?”
      OK, how about Betts getting easy access to a .223 long-barreled rifle through a mail order company in Texas (thanks, Greg Abbott) as well as the 100 round drum magazine that he used to kill nine people, including his own sister? How about right wing nutters like you getting paid off by special interest groups (thanks, NRA) to look the other way and tell others to do the same while our children are dying at their desks?
      Now go fuck yourself with a nutmeg grater.

     Mental health, eh? Yeah, let's talk about mental health, stable genius. In 2017, you removed any obstacles whatsoever that would've kept mentally ill people like your followers from getting weapons, including fully automatic ones. You put guns in the hands of the mentally ill so they could shoot innocents to appease a terrorist group called the NRA.
      Something a stable genius wouldn't have done.

     More stable ingeniousness from President Hatbox Head.

     This came out last March & it's more relative than ever after these last two nightmarish weekends.

     This is what happens when you elect conservatives, people. They will privatize everything under the sun. Before you know it, one way or the other, you're paying five pounds for a fucking Tylenol and your health care has suddenly and simultaneously gotten vastly more expensive and inferior. Then they'll convince you that liberals are to blame for how miserable your life is.

     Fake president blames "fake news" for real anger after real shootings. Deflect & distract. Yawn.

     Cory Booker calls out Trump for his narcoleptic speech at the White House today.

     Beto didn't exactly mince his words, either.

     Republicans like Moscow Mitch seem remarkably comfortable with innocent people dying, aren't they? And finally...

      How sad is it that the national media have turned into one giant obituary column?
     By the way, I learned from Greg Palast's latest newsletter that TJ McNichols, one of the nine fatalities, was the cousin of one of his documentary producers. He was there celebrating his 25th birthday and the release of three music tracks. He was also the ring bearer at Greg's wedding a few weeks ago.
      Palast found out about TJ getting killed at Ned Pepper's while speaking with the Rev. Jesse Jackson about the mass shooting in Dayton.
