Welcome Back to Pottersville: Gotham City Digest: Super-Sized edition

(Well, the fabric of the space-time continuum is still... no wait...)

"The deposed king ranting."

This is coming directly from Bill Barr.

Thanks for exposing the traitors among us, asshole.

Here are the names of the 126 right wing 5th Columnists who tried to overthrow our government, including Mike Pence's older brother.

Texas AG Henry Lee Lucas says he has a Plan B for defeating democracy and its institutions, or what I call Plan 9 From Outer Trumplandia.

What ABOUT the black woman? God, I cannot wait until this racist redneck Lamar Alexander is out of the Senate next month.

Your Karen o' the day.

I'm still not entirely convinced this is a deep fake video. (The full version is here.)

Meanwhile, the casualty numbers from the MAGAt rallies in Washington State and Nuremberg-on-the-Potomac are still coming in.

Oh, the white grievance is strong with this one. (Tip o' the tinfoil hat to Constant Reader, CC.)

So, four people stabbed and one shot, all by right wingers, is "liveliness." But antifa & BLM are the problem, huh?

Like spoiled brats, Republicans are saying, "If he can complain, so can we!"

Even Trump's executions are super spreader events.

“(W)histle-blowers working on President Trump’s wall said that contractors were illegally bringing in Mexican guards to protect construction sites... The whistle-blowers said Ultimate Concrete went so far as to build a dirt road to expedite illegal border crossings to sites in San Diego, using construction vehicles to block security cameras.”

You just can't make this shit up.

According to Sidney Powell, who got her law license in a Rotary Club raffle, just about the entire planet rigged the election for Joe Biden, including the CIA and little Lichtenstein.

Yes, Lichtenstein.

And Lin Wood is blaming Canada.

CNN did a study of the economic records of all 13 post WWII presidents and discovered that, except for one, Trump is leaving a worse economy than all of them. In fact, of all 13, he's the only one in which fewer Americans are working than when he started.

So, in other words, "We get the vaccine, you get the herd immunity"

When will the right wing start sneering about this being "elitism"? Let's hold our breath and find out.

Meme intermission.

Joe Epstein wrote a snotty op-ed in the right wing rag WSJ, "Madame First Lady — Mrs. Biden — Jill — kiddo: a bit of advice on what might seem like a small but I think is not an unimportant matte. Any chance you might drop the ‘Dr.’ before your name? ‘Dr. Jill Biden’ sounds and feels a touch fraudulent, not to mention comical.”

Like "President" Trump never sounded fraudulent and comical?

Somehow, I fail to see Falwell's fake right wing think tank as a legit use for 501c(3) status.

This is hilarious, that even Trump's stooges on the SCOTUS refused to bail him out.

The Proud Boys enjoy this curious immunity, this maddening fig leaf that shields them from being seen as they are: They are the KKK without hoods and robes, they are the SS without the swastikas. They are the enemy of the people.

“Any action Plaintiffs allege to be an adverse employment action was the result of each Plaintiff’s own misconduct, lack of competence, and/or disloyalty to the Office,” wrote Paxton's goons, completely missing the irony that their boss conducted himself very poorly in displaying his own legal incompetence in attacking through his ridiculous lawsuit the very principles of democracy and rule of law.

"As we speak, an alternate slate of electors in the contested states is going to vote and we are going to send those results to Congress." -Reichsführer Steven Miller.

The fact they think they can legitimately seat 538 alternative electors that'll be officially recognized by Congress is another alternative fact in an alternate right wing universe.

"(I)f you’re a prominent public figure, the bar should be pretty darn high for you to play sort of the victim card.”

I guess Trump set that bar high enough on election night with his three score failed lawsuits, right?

It's come to this. What used to be a mere political formality, electors assembling to cast post-election votes, is now under siege because of assholes like Trump and Lin Wood calling for people to "stock up on Second Amendment supplies."

Oddly enough, Ana Navarro, the only conservative on the View's panel, is also the only one who agrees with me that Trump and his flunkies shouldn't get the vaccine before everyone else.

The UK also has a right wing government, yet the first people to get the Pfizer vaccine there were an 80 year-old woman and an old man named Bill Shakespeare.

You go, girl. Stay healthy.

Pam in Arkansas has finally made a connection between COVID tests, the pandemic, Obama, Bill Gates and the election... but won't tell anyone what it is.

Molly Jong-Fast lets right wingers have it right between their beady rat eyes for their hypocrisy regarding Hunter Biden.

A damned good thing but far too late. I'm surprised the Miami Herald wasn't one of the papers suing DeSantis.

Who and what we've lost in this terrible year.

As if hacking Treasury and Commerce wasn't bad enough, now the Russians have hacked Homeland Security. Meanwhile, Trump hasn't said a word about this while posting deranged tweets about fictional busted water mains and Brian Kemp.

Fake electors trying to cast fake votes for a fake president, the byproduct of living an alternative universe of fakery. Fake electors in Georgia already met to cast their fake votes for Trump, despite Stacey Abrams counting the real electoral votes in Atlanta.

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the MAGA dimension, it's not just Georgia and Michigan. Fake electors are also meeting and casting votes for Trump in Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona and Pennsylvania. And finally...

Trump just fired Bill Barr on, as usual, Twitter. "Our relationship has been a very good one", he said, even after slamming him for not finding any voter fraud. Gee, you think it had something to do with Barr calling Trump's sore loser rants, "The deposed king ranting"?
