Welcome Back to Pottersville: Pottersville Digest

(That's kind of like throwing out a really bellicose baby and keeping bath water swimming with STDs.)

"Like the Swiss Army Knife, the popular AR-15 rifle is a perfect combination of home defense weapon and homeland defense equipment."

I know of no one who uses their Swiss Army knife for home defense let alone homeland defense. But, what do you expect from a Bush appointee?

Oh, the flop sweat was strong with this lot.

When Tangerine Hitler was on his way to North Carolina for the Nazi convention, Republicans were quaking in their jackboots.

All right wing billionaires are, when you get right down to it, are self-interested shoppers in search of a price tag.

And they always find them. (Tip o' the tinfoil hat to Constant Reader, CC)

Another Trump dingleberry gets dislodged and flushed down the porcelain bowl of history.

Yeah, this make sense. If you don't have popularity, just piggyback on that of others.

Yada yada. Blah blah .

"The bill also prohibits the use of 'sundown sirens'- those sirens were historically used to alert people of certain races or ethnicities to leave a county or town."

Sundown sirens? Sundown sirens?!

Yes, people, our nuclear codes were in the hands of a guy who wore his pants backwards..

This is why "He's a Republican" was trending on Twitter.

Somehow, this doesn't meet my definition of charity. (A second tip o' the tinfoil hat to Constant Reader, CC)

How do we let morons like this into Congress? Oh, right. Alabama.

The Post gets bagged by the WaPo for another false narrative about the Bidens.

Your Brad o' the day.

Jennifer Rubin: "Let's take H.R. 1 first. He does not state what provisions he likes or doesn't, nor does he suggest what compromise bill might reach 60 votes. So his objection is that Republicans object?"

Yeah, that's pretty much it.

Isn't using federal troops to stop people from attending taxpayer-funded events, you know, illegal?

OK, this is a new one...

So, the guy who waged war on paper ballots wants us to stop using computers and go to paper. Despite the fact all our public utilities are run by computers.

“This decision was long overdue. Rebekah Jones is the Typhoid Mary of COVID-19 disinformation and has harmed hardworking DOH employees with her defamatory conspiracy theories. I hope someone will ask Ms. Jones why she thinks she got suspended — will she allege that Governor DeSantis is somehow behind Twitter’s decision? That would be deeply ironic if she tried to spin that falsehood into her conspiracy theory, given the Governor’s stance on Big Tech.”

No, what's ironic is Ronnie celebrating her accidental suspension just weeks after he'd signed a bill banning suspensions on social media.

The moral? Don't fuck with Mr. Miyagi.

Mayor Rudy not only had his own phone call with Ukrainian officials, he tried to pressure them with quid pro quos in three different ways.

Another right winger with a gift for projection.

Killing cops to go after a nonexistent enemy. I think that's the definition of sociopathy.

Chauncey DeVega: "I would like to share a public secret: Donald Trump and the Republican Party's coup attempt was not defeated on Jan. 6. The war against American democracy continues — and is gaining momentum. All one has to do is take off one's blinders to see it. Unfortunately, too many Americans, including the Democratic Party's leadership, the professional smart people and other members of the country's mainstream media and chattering class, have waited for months to acknowledge what has been happening in plain sight. "

BLM didn't try to overthrow the government, assholes.

Sidney Powell has simply "lost the plot."

Chris Cuomo nails Moscow Mitch for his opposition to the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. And it sounds suspiciously like a Mississippi redneck's objection to another voting rights bill in 1957.

Yeah, he raised over a quarter billion dollars and still has next to no one working for him. Has it ever occurred to anybody that he just wants to keep as much of that money to himself as possible?

I was barely aware that Massachusetts has a Republican party and I live here. WTF do they think they're doing here in trying to push out one of their own who has an approval rating of 70% among DEMOCRATS?!

Yes, your honor, I promise to listen to my mommy and not invade anymore Capitols., said the 24 year-old professional trust fund kid from his $4. 5 million mansion. And finally...

"(A)nd now they're magnetized, and put a key on their forehead, it sticks..." I don't know what's scarier- This woman's conspiracy theories or the fact that she actually graduated from medical school.
