Gotham City Digest

(Today, we are all Santa Clarita. Well, except for #MassacreMitch and the bloodthirsty bastards in the GOP.)

   Just when you thought the Republicans Party was going to put a drag on these #Impeachmenthearings...

     Some who are more cynical than I (and I am VERY cynical, as anyone who's spent more than a few minutes on my wall can tell you) who would blow this off as a PR stunt, a cheap and easy photo op.

     I see this as a genuine effort on Sen. Duckworth's part because I see nothing in her that isn't genuine. Her devotion to those in uniform is as real as was John McCain's. She could have chosen to spend Veteran's Day at home with her family like the other 99 senators but she chose to spend it with those whose adopted country was stolen by a bigot named Donald Trump.

      Why are right wingers hell-bent on destroying our only planet?

---

      Three years-old and this satire is more relevant than ever.

---

      Yeah, the Fat Man's going down. The day after the now-infamous call with Zelensky, Trump followed up with a call to Sondland essentially solidifying the extortion scheme and we know it was heard by at least two embassy officials.

---

     This is what the NRA's Twitter account put out as the Santa Clarita school shooting was unfolding.

---

      They were busted trying to board a one-way trip to Frankfurt just hours after having lunch with Giuliani at the Trump International. More details are here.

---

     Republicans have basically been reduced to rodeo clowns by Trump and the bulls of the Democratic party aren't having any of it.

---

       Giuliani: "No, Trump won't throw me under the bus but if he tries, I got enough shit on him so the fat man will go down with me."
       Giuliani lawyer: "He's joking, JOKING! This interview is over!!!"

---

       Really, I'm amazed that Steve Castor was the best lawyer the GOP could get. This clown still has the marks on his face from the ambulance's back door when the driver hit the brakes

---

      In other words, if it wasn't for Daddy Warbucks buying up Junior's book with campaign funds, it'd already be in the .99 cent bargain bin at Walmart.

      Not only is karma a bitch, she also has an impeccable sense of comedic timing.

 

     It's also an impeccable example of when life imitates art.

---

    So, Donnie Dumbo recently claimed that Erdogan "has a great relationship with the Kurds."  In other WH news, Putin has a great relationship with Russia's gay men and chickens are nuts about Col. Sanders and Jeffrey Epstein had a great relationship with underage girls.

---

      I'm telling you guys, Pay Per View. It'd pay off the national debt.

---

      Yesterday, #MoscowMitch was trending and here's why. He's had a background check bill from the House on his desk for close to a year.

      Meanwhile the death toll in Santa Clarita rises. Two are now confirmed dead after yesterday's mass shooting.

       Snowflake finally melts, film at 11.

---

       Mob boss under federal criminal investigation.

---

     Meme intermission.

---

    This is the closest thing the right wing psychopaths at the Federalist Society will ever get to a conscience.

---

      This happened a week ago and I'm just now hearing about it. NY city just adopted ranked choice voting which, to the best of my knowledge, is done in just one other state, which is Maine.

---

       This would be a memory I would carry for the rest of my life, as soon as I'd change my pants.

      Sir Rod Stewart worked on this model railroad city for over a quarter century and he's just unveiled it. The attention to detail is stunning. It's something like 124 feet long and 23 feet wide. It's a combination of New York and Chicago circa 1945.

---

        Naturally, right wing media's all over this like slime on a snail. But, even though I'm not a lawyer or campaign finance expert, I honestly don't see her as having broken any laws. Campaigns are allowed to pay stipends to their candidates and she still had bills to pay. I can't understand why the Democrats who control the Ethics Committee are doing this unless there's a darker motivation at play here. But it seems as if the machine Democrats are trying to pick off the Squad one by one. First, the steering committee tried to marginalize AOC at every turn and that included fielding a centrist Democrat to primary her. Then they went after Ilhan Omar tooth and nail on trumped up charges that she was antisemitic. Now they're going after Tlaib over this chickenshit. If they go after Ayanna Presley from my own state, then that'll prove without a doubt they're going after the whole Squad. They're essentially doing the GOP's dirty work for them.

---

      Fuck the arrogant twats of the NRA.

---

      If this is how Trump acts toward Marie Yovanovitch during the #ImpeachmentHearing on Twitter, can you imagine how he'll act in person when he has to testify before the Senate? #ImpeachingHearings

---

      Who Framed Roger Stone? Nobody because he's guilty as fuck. No doubt, Fox News' lead story tonight will be, "Roger Stone found guilty on fewer than eight counts!" And finally...

---

       Like Rick Wilson said in the title of his book, everything Trump touches dies.
