Gotham City Digest: Happy Halloween edition

(Aaaaallll aboard... or not.)

Great moments in journalism.

I'll bet right about now Bryce Harper is thanking his lucky stars he was smart enough to sign with Philly.

The whistleblower's name has allegedly been released and all the search results lead to right wing media. I won't mention the name, of course, but the reaction from their lawyers shows they're pretty pissed about it. Things are about to get dirty real fast. The right wing is trying its best to get this poor bastard killed.

Bribery, corruption. It's in the Republican party's DNA. But this is the only way Trump can get the enduring loyalty of Republican scum in the Senate.

Machine Democrats fret that former Republican who calls herself a "capitalist" and was a corporate lawyer is too far to the left to beat Trump. And people wonder why I left that fucking party. (Tip o' the tinpoil hat to Constant Reader CC.)

I'll tell you why- They've hitched their wagons so firmly to Trump's that they know if he falls, they follow. Look what happened after Watergate.

She said he was all over her "like ugly on an ape." And I'd bet Trump thinks this piece is about him.

For just the 4th time in the 232 years since we adopted our Constitution, we have held a vote like this. These rules are fairer to Trump than anything Andrew Johnson, Nixon or Clinton received. Naturally, the WH issued a childish litany of lies claiming the so-called "president" was not given any means to defend himself. Every single Republican scumbag voted against the adoption of the rules and two of us jumped ship and voted with them and here they are. Look at their demographics.

Minutes after the rules were adopted, Trump had the press office release this bloated Twitter whine. I'd say Trump wrote this in the third person but all the words are spelled correctly.

Good for them. Fuck right wingers that bought it. Six in one day quit. May Deadspin become just another right wing rag that goes under.

Meme intermission.

Oh, she did not just compare her father to Jefferson! Yes, yes she did.

Fucking A. That first "whistleblower" was no hero.

Another Fox boo bird flies the coop.

Looks like someone's been avoiding the nice nurse with the paper cup.

And yet, despite this Senate Intelligence Committee report, 50 of the 53 Republicans in the Senate voted for Graham's anti-impeachment bill. Think about that for a minute. How can anyone not come to the conclusion that Senate Republicans are siding with Russia and its stooge in the Oval Office?

Yes, right wingers are this stupid & ignorant. Ann Coulter actually put this on Twitter minutes after finding out Tulsi Gabbard voted for the impeachment rules.

Perhaps it's no coincidence that Republicans are acting exactly like domestic terrorists. They actually left moving boxes in front of the offices of Congressional Democrats who voted for the impeachment rules.

Looks as if escaped nursing home resident Don Young found a use for his head besides growing hair on it.

If Katie Hill had to go down, at least she went down swinging. Good on her. Not a single feckless cunt in the entire Democratic Party applauded her words.

Even he's aware enough to know the walls are closing in.

“They’re trying to impeach us. We represent a third of the country!” Otherwise known as a minority. So shut the fuck up. And finally...

Trump's been trying like a one-nut on his wedding night to get Ken Coochie Coochie installed in DHS. despite federal law, and the Republican Senate, saying it's illegal.
