Gotham City Digest

 
(We all have our cross to bear.)
    Patsie, the world's oldest ventriloquist dummy, tells Trump to concede. The damned are now ice skating on Hell's lake of fire.
    
So, are we supposed to be encouraged that he's finally admitting he lost?
    
Ambulatory hair product storage facility Matt Gaetz (R-DUI) is at it again.
  
Those "core values" being, among other things, toppling democratically-elected governments threatening right wing corporate interests, cutting taxes for the ultra wealthy (like Romney), invading foreign countries sitting on top of assets we want and keeping gay people from marrying.
    
At a charity food giveaway. He had to fuck even THAT up.
   
Leave it to a right wing ambulance-chasing shyster like Texas AG Henry Lee Lucas to try to take COVID relief money from his own state.
    
The Biggest Loser.
     “A few days ago, with a new president-elect of their own party, everything changed. Democrats suddenly came around to our position that we should find consensus, make law where we agree, and get urgent help out the door.”
     No, Moscow Mitch, Democrats always wanted to negotiate. And the NEED was urgent. The "help" was pathetic.
    Your Brad o' the day.
     MI AG Dana Nessel is going to try to sanction Sidney Powell.
Good on you. You go, girl.
    
I suppose Trump violating the KKK Act was inevitable. It was, after all, passed in 1871, because of assholes like Trump.
    
Light dawns on Marblehead.
   
Why do the Feds want to see Giuliani's electronic devices? Rachel Maddow offers some possibilities.
   
Are you moved now, stupid?
   
Once again, it's the shared cruelty. The cruelty, as Adam Serwer said two years ago, is the point.
   
Let it not be said the US Air Marshall's Service isn't always up to the task.
   
Yes. Another SCOTUS lawsuit, this time attacking PA for doing things that red states also did.
    
Typical right wing coward, scuttling away when the kitchen gets too hot.
    
Oh, look who the newest member of the deep state is.
    
Why should Trump be allowed to continue controlling the presidential Twitter accounts after he's kicked out of the Oval Office?
   
And so the right wing beneficence begins...
   
"But the real lesson we should learn from the rise of a demagogue such as Trump, who received 74 million votes, and a pandemic that our for-profit health care industry proved unable to contain, is that we are losing control as a nation and as a species. Far more dangerous demagogues will arise from the imperial and neoliberal policies the Biden administration will embrace." -Chris Hedges, Salon.

   
How much longer do we have to keep watching this spousal abuse before the GOP finally gets a restraining order against this fucking asshole?
    Meme intermission: Evil Ostrich/Dave Chadwick edition.
   
With Jared Kushner involved, you KNOW this was bound to turn into a tax evasion scheme.
   
Yes, they're suing Mike Pence now. And the circus calliope gets louder and more demented.
    
Aim barrel at foot, cock hammer, pull trigger.
    
I'm no lawyer but doesn't a federal judge have to sign off on every pardon?
     "[Democrats] want to make rich people poorer, and poor people more comfortable."
     That's exactly the point, you sadistic, right wing asshole.
     Conservatism is a mental disease. I give you Marsha Blackburn, exhibit A.
    
Yeah, Marsha, let's talk about a redistribution of wealth.
     "But shortly after she signed the letter, its purpose became neatly aligned with her personal financial interests as well."
     Strictly a happy coincidence, I'm sure.
     "The teen, who was told by his mother to take down the Nazi flags that he had put in his room, had spoken numerous times about creating Nazi militant cells around the country, the affidavit reveals."
     If this doesn't show you in a snapshot how laughably pathetic the militant right wing is, nothing will.
     As a reward for killing and injuring their workers, FedEx's share price had skyrocketed by 80% this year.
     Anything for the real First Lady.
    
I'd always wondered why Dominion hadn't sued Giuliani, yet. Looks as if they finally got tired of his bullshit & conspiracy mongering.
    
Well, well, look at who else to whom Trump gave clemency.
    
She's got Trump nailed. And after January 20th, she'll get to nail him again.
    
The Neo Nazi "think" tank, FreedomWorks is already comparing Trump to AOC, which is not only ridiculous but an insult to the NY-14 Congresswoman.
    
OK, Trump is just sticking his tiny little thumb in the eye of American jurisprudence at this point.
    
So, if you see Rudy Giuliani and his helpers Sidney Powell and Lin Wood stealing your Christmas tree and all the presents under it tomorrow night, you'll know why. And finally...
    
That stupid nine minute-long video that Trump put on Twitter last night was no better than Soviet Samizdat. The GOP leadership never saw it coming.
