Gotham City Digest

(When in doubt, go with the classics.)

---

     Tomi Lahren Freedom line made in country in which freedom doesn't exist.

---

     Trump's just pissed that Pritzker wouldn't give him the chance to steal his shipment as he has those of countless other states as well as Germany and Canada.

     Remember, this is the same asshole who told Democratically-run states that they they were on their own and to get their own damned medical supplies. Pritzker just wanted no part in our kleptocratic federal government stealing supplies and openly bidding against the various states for those supplies. I don't blame Pritzker one bit for doing what he had to do to get supplies for the medical workers of Illinois.

---

      Billionaires in Biden's Cabinet? Oh, yes. Much, MUCH better and different than Trump.

---

     Shadow puppets. Yes, Ivanka actually suggested we make shadow puppets.

---

     These right wing assholes are gonna get us all killed.

---

     I'm frankly a little amazed Trump didn't make him the head of his Space Force.

---

     The Green Party candidate for president just got his Twitter account terminated for impersonating himself. In that case, Twitter should also terminate Trump's account for impersonating the President of the United States.

---

     Meanwhile, during the wave of "Give me liberty and give me death" right wing rallies across state capitals yesterday, this wonderful blast from the past was seen in Ohio. (Click to expand.)

---

     These greaseball, rubber-haired hucksters are pure scum.

---

     Ilhan Omar's rent & mortgage relief bill is humane, necessary and popular. Therefore, it'll die in committee on Capitol Hill.

---

    Yes, because staying in the comfort of your own home is exactly the same as having your possessions and home taken from you, being separated from your family, starved, beaten, getting painfully gassed to death with Zyklon-B and your corpse incinerated in a gas oven. 🙄

      The Governor of Idaho, incidentally, is a Republican.

---

    “We built an economy with no shock absorbers. We made a system that looked like it was maximizing profits but had higher risks and lower resiliency.” -Joseph Stiglitz

---

     Meme intermission.

---

    I will always look at Jennifer Rubin as a useful, right wing idiot (pardon the tautology) but I heartily agree with her idea here: Bring these Republican scumbag governors up on murder charges.

---

    K Street is booming. Of course it is. Grifters are gonna grift. "Never let a crisis go to waste," and all that.

---

    Wow and I thought the Trump test kits would be as fabulous a success as Trump Water, Trump Ice, Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Steaks, Trump Shuttle, Trump the Board Game and Trump University.

---

    When you've lost Tom Friedman, you've lost Bullshit Mountain. He might as well have named his article, "This Presidency* Brought To You By Coronavirus."

---

    "Yeah, I'm still holding a grudge because I stopped maturing at the age of seven."

---

    Trump went after Weijia Jiang again.

---

   Harvard University is essentially a massive $41,000,000,000 hedge fund with a tiny college attached to it. So how come they scarfed up $9,000,000 in CARES aid?

---

    And speaking of large amounts of our money falling into the wrong hands, why the fuck did the SBA give $10,000,000 to fast food giant Shake Shack?

---

    Remember just a few short months ago when limousine "liberals" gasped in horror and clutched their pearls at the very thought of Bernie turning us into a Socialist nightmare like Venezuela? Yeah, we really dodged a bullet there, huh? 🙄

---

     Over 41,000 Americans have died of COVID-19. This is the story of one of them.

---

     We're looking for concessions from Biden on a VP pick? Fuck you, we are.

---

     Yep, Tony Spell, America's favorite Max Headsroom-headed psychopath, is at it again.

---

    Trump Golf just posted a video from a lush who claims that drinking a bottle of vodka can kill coronavirus.

---

     Bottom line- Anti-government people who refuse to obey state government guidelines apparently have no problem being coerced by the federal government.

---

     I wonder how many of those goobers already cashed their $1200 checks before going out to rail against "welfare"?

---

     So, Donnie Dumbo's now reduced to blaming our last REAL president for not developing a testing kit for a disease that didn't exist, yet.

---

    OK, so my question is, why in God's name are we diverting much-needed medical supplies from states that need them most and putting them in the hands of private industry?

---

   Yes, Amazon is actually using a "heat map" to track which Whole Foods stores are most in "danger" of unionizing. It's based on factors such as a race and "loyalty." This alone is proof of the necessity of Whole Foods unionizing.

---

     Seriously, we're just one Trump brain seizure away from Soylent Green. The right wing isn't even trying to hide or disguise their active loathing for the labor force at this point.

---

     If the price of crude oil just dropped 105% to minus 37 dollars a barrel, yes, you read that right, why are we still paying two dollars for a gallon of gas here in Massachusetts?

---

     Yes, he had another praise roll set up... or he thought he did. You KNOW the White House butler got flogged last night. And finally...

---

     I guess hearing that fewer than 500 of my fellow New Yorkers died yesterday is supposed to pass for good news.
