Welcome Back to Pottersville: Pottersville Digest: Super Expanded edition

A divorce is always sad, even if it's amicable as this one seems to be. But, my God, could she possibly look more like trailer park trash?

I could watch this literally all day.

How's he gonna ruin them, max out their credit cards?

It's a major failing in this country when a multimillionaire is expected to hand over everything they've earned over several decades to a health care conglomerate.

I find it difficult to believe that even an idiot like Lindell could blow $100,000,000 in three years. Right wing scumbags like him always move their money to LLCs or to other people so the courts and litigants can't touch it. Look at Alex Jones and the Sacklers. I'm telling you, he moved what he had left.

217 chimps flinging their feces couldn't have made this a bigger clusterfuck than the GOP.

"We want to govern on important issues in this country regarding our national debt, regarding immigration, regarding our children's education. Lots of republicans have lots of good ideas..."

I'd love to know where Christie is getting all this from. Because when they're not mud wrestling with each other over the Speakership, all they've done thus far is hold dysfunctional impeachment inquires against Biden and going after Hunter's laptop.

Since the GOP has proven it can't govern a pile of shit, much less half of Congress, it's become screamingly obvious that the only way to reopen the House is to elect Hakeem Jeffries as the next Speaker. He has more votes than anyone (212) & all that's needed is five GOP votes. It's obviously the fastest path to reopening the House. It's that simple.

Tell me again about how Toni Morrison is the bad guy here.

God help us, one and all. Are they really going to make me pine for Newt Gingrich?

Help Make Bonnie's Final Dreams Come True.

"I never heard of such a thing even when I parted the Red Sea and led my people to the Promised Land!"

Elect Jeffries Speaker. There's your compromise. Take it or leave it. Or show us a more direct path to reopening the House.

Your Brad and Karen o' the day,.

You have to wonder when these insurance companies are going to stop insuring these municipalities.

Cartoon intermission.

Quote o' the day:

"Never have so many people quarreled so hard about a choice so meaningless. Picking out of the lineup of MAGA jackasses (for Speaker) is like trying to figure out which cat turd in the litterbox I like best." -Amanda Marcotte.

"In addition, when a man shakes a woman's hand in the same pulling-toward-their-torso fashion, it's not only indicative of narcissism & manipulative personality, but it also has an extremely high correlation w/ misogyny, objectification, & tendency toward physical abuse." -Dr. Jack Brown.

"I don’t think they play fair.” What? Donald Trump, not playing fair? What're the odds?

Nobel Prize-winning poet Louise Glück has just passed away. Damn, and I was reading about her on the internet just a week or two ago. RIP, Louise.

Forget about the insurrection for a moment. His complete disregard for classified materials alone renders him, or should render him, unfit for the job and he ought to be barred from running again. Full stop.

"They are terrorists like the leaders of Hamas. They are despots like Vladimir Putin. They are men like Donald Trump, who has never gone without a meal or lacked the social lubricant of money his entire life, and yet has convinced millions he is the answer to all our problems."

One young man was brutally murdered, another was maimed and nearly lost his life. A young girl was traumatized, possibly for life. Am I a heartless prick for seeing a novel in this?

You know what would be a delicious irony? If we did accept Gazan refugees into, say, California, and then Gavin Newsom sends them all to Florida.

RIP Suzanne Somers, aka Crissy on Three's Company. Her 77th birthday would've been today.

Then what happens if and when we have to go to war with China over Taiwan? Because if they attack Taiwan, according to international law, we'll have to defend them.

Just watch- Within 24-48 hours, he'll be ragging on Bibi for Jewish space lasers.

He might as well have left it in cash on her nightstand.

What a great-looking guy. Yeah, I'd want to rent a unit from him.

An eight minute-long supercut of the craziest moments from the GOP and right wing just in the past week. And finally...

I still remember the flaming shit storm that resulted from the revelation that Hillary Clinton was coached by CNN when they slipped her debate questions through the DNC's Donna Brazille.

But this is on a whole 'nuther level entirely because it involves not one candidate but half the Legislative branch. And it's not even getting half the press the Hillary scandal did.
