Gotham City Digest

(We cover more news by noon than the MSM ignores in a whole week.)

     I wrote a long blog post many years ago about this famous truce in 1914 and reproduced it for a few years thereafter. It remains one of the most fascinating stories I've ever heard. Peace is a chorus poorly heard in the much louder refrain of war.

     Another shockingly brilliant win for private industry.

   This is a Goddamn shame. It's bad enough just six corporations own virtually 100% of our mainstream media. Now they own virtually every publishing house of consequence in the English-speaking world.

     Another one of our 60's icons has died.

     No word, yet, on what he thinks of his fellow Christian pastors who dress like used car salesmen grooming children for sexual purposes. This is a cult, ladies and gentlemen.

      Grifters attract grifters. And speaking of which...

       Grifters gotta grift. Trump suspended tariffs on Argentina whole his trademarks were still pending.

      "People from all walks of lice."

      It's nice to have friends in low places.

      Now we're racially profiling in drug stores like CVS.

      When Giuliani read the first five paragraphs of this article, he called the journalist in a towering rage. He left a cell phone with her, accidentally activated Siri, drooled on his sweater and had his fly down the entire time. This is the dollar-a-year lawyer for the "president."

     Harvard encouraged law students to clerk for right wing judges. Surprisingly, there were no takers.

    Because allowing world-eating fracking companies to duck their responsibilities in good ecological stewardship is what "regulators" do, right?

     Go ahead, flaunt it, you Dollar Store Col. Kurtz. The Devil's paying rapt attention.

     The most interesting part of this article is the possibility that Dolt 45 could get impeached again.

      And we passively read headlines like this on a daily basis as if this is the way things are supposed to be.

     When you had Xmas dinner last Wednesday, I hope you thought of these people.

     This blackout psychopath drunk broke into a black woman's home and threatened hers and her childrens' lives, calling them the N-word.
     The Nashville police didn't arrest him, he got two weeks in jail and is still on the job on the NYPD.

       Is Trump's evil rational? I think it's both. There are some things about this creature that simply aren't normal.

       "Last week, however, charges against two of the suspects were dismissed because those federal agents have been unavailable to testify in Mohave Superior Court."
       The rest of us would've had bench warrants put out for our arrest if we failed to show up for our own trials.

        This was over two years ago but you know two of these three scumbags have gotten richer since then. (So would've Jeff fucking Bezos if he hadn't stuck his pecker where it didn't belong, resulting in the costliest divorce in planetary history.) The 26 richest people on earth own as much wealth as the bottom half of the world's population. That's 26 vs 3.8 billion people. And they'd all tell you they're fine with that.

        TomDispatch asks if Trump is the 2nd & 3rd 9/11.

        "Wait, that wasn't really from Santa?! Wah!"

       Another apostate. "“Announcement: Today, rather abruptly, I was forced to make the difficult choice to leave The Christian Post. They decided to publish an editorial that positions them on Team Trump. I can’t be an editor for a publication with that editorial voice.”

        Fired for being pregnant. Another reason why it doesn't pay to work for a Republican if you're a woman.


       Meme intermission: Boxing Day edition.

        What?! A New York billionaire lied? And it's not Trump?

        This is one of the coolest inventions ever.

        Kevin Spacey is simply not well. #1, they killed off his character in HOUSE OF CARDS yet he's still playing Frank Underwood in these creepy home videos he keeps making. #2, one of his accusers suddenly died right before his trial was to start, just like several characters in HOUSE OF CARDS. And speaking of which...

        Another Kevin Spacey accuser, a former Crown Prince of Norway abruptly dies. Spacey's turning into the Bill Clinton of actors.

        Giuliani henchman Lev Parnas gets 86'd by one of his lawyers who cites his ‘diminished’ funds.'

       It's that time of year. Many of us are with family and friends and tend to take that for granted. Many don't have that. Some of us need extra love and to know that people DO care. If you need help, please ask someone. If you don't have someone or if you know of someone who needs help, please don't ignore their cry for it. If you or someone is in immediate crisis, call 800 273 8255.

     If Mary and Joseph were trying to cross the southern border, this absolutely would have happened. And I've never seen a blond-haired, blue eyed white person caged in any of our 100+ concentration camps.

      Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the stupidest carbon-based life form in the entire multiverse.

      'T is the season for miracles. And if anyone needed them, it's these poor guys.

      For example, here's what else is going on in Oz. This is downright catastrophic. This is a direct result of global warming. When in our lifetimes have we seen better than half of Australia in flames?

       Instead of toys, little girl collects money and buys 600 lbs of pet food for her area shelter.

       I find it easier to believe they're using them as slave labor making gifts for white kids.

       Fiona Hill shouldn't have said those things about the man Trump loves.

       Santa Claus: The Dark Years.

      The Founding Fathers intended for our nation to be one of laws, not men. 240+ years later, it's the exact opposite.

       Mrs. Claus arrested, film at 11.

      And Donnie Dumbo loses in federal court YET AGAIN. What a lawless pack of assclowns we have running our government.

      Republican uses prison slave labor... AGAIN. Doesn't apologize. Michael Bloomberg, go fuck yourself.

       This goes back six months but I think the historic relevance cannot possibly be overstated.

       We need to see more stories like this at all times of the year, not just at Xmas.

       Why am I not surprised that this is being carried out by a creepy cult founded a horse thief?

       Couldn't've happened to a nicer terrorist group.

       Way to go, Canada.

       And they'll either steal his ideas without attribution like they did in 2016 or try to dilute them. Do not trust the Dem establishment, Bernie.

       Mr. Kellyanne Conway strikes again.

       Take an inside look at the "news" network that trowels out shit too crazy for even Fox.

       Three words: Article Two, Douchebag.

     So, this is what #Bernie & Rashida Tlaib published in the Guardian on Xmas Eve. #FeelTheBern, motherfucker.

        Of course it was North Carolina.

       Well, Truman did famously say the presidency was the loneliest job in the world. Then there's poor Donnie Dumbo.

      Remember this Iowa douchebag who ran over that 14 year-old Latina? That was just the continuation of a violent crime spree that day. This is Trump's America.

        Henry Ford's hemp car got great mileage and was fast. Unfortunately, it passed everything but a fast food joint.

      Every day that Bill Barr isn't in prison is an indictment of our criminal justice system. And finally...

       "...with liberty and justice for all", eh?
