Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Tick tock motherfuckers!

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

He really is that stupid.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

T R E 4 5 O N

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

The willow is too close to the house.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Let there be snark.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Can We Just Disappear Him?

Yay, team:

New York Magazine has done a special issue this week on race and the US election. There’s lot of good stuff in the package but this line from John Heilemann’s cover story stood out to me:

“In October, Obama’s former pastor, Wright, will publish a new book and hit the road to promote it”

Seriously. There already is an Obama death list. If we just make Wright disappear, will anyone notice?

*** Update ***

Sorry PUMA’s and GOP (or is that redundant), not going to happen, as Wright has already disappeared himself in Ghana:

A New York magazine cover story last week reignited the debate over Rev. Jeremiah Wright when it stated – without attribution – that the former pastor of Sen. Barack Obama was releasing a new book.

But his daughter, Jeri, told me today that the story is absolutely false.

“The only book we’re working on is the history of Trinity (United Church of Christ) and I haven’t even started editing that,” Wright told Essence.com.

After I reached out to her, she called her father, who is teaching and ministering in Ghana (I ran into him last month when I was in the West African nation) and said he “laughed” when she asked about the book.

“He said that he also got an email, but was unable to respond since he’s in email hell,” Wright said, meaning in a place in Ghana where it’s difficult to send and receive email.

I hear Ghana is absolutely wonderful in October and November.

    ABC also just put out a story saying it’s not true. Apparently, Trinity is releasing a clarifying statement today.

    The next time Obama makes an appeal to court NASCAR fans, I’m going to accuse him of playing the Race card.

    Dang, he’s gooooood!

    He disappears his victims, and then intimidates or hypnotizes their families into believing the “cover story”. Yup, sorry we haven’t heard from dad lately – he must be having “email problems”. Dead men send no text messages, apparently.
    The STASI would be jealous.

    It’s obvious, Obama had his ass renditioned to Ghana to delay Wright finishing his book, Death to the U.S. of KKKA. Of course Obama follows his spiritual leader, but the book was inconvenient at this time. Tough love.

    To make it up to him, after the election Obama will tap Wright to head the new cabinet level God Damn America faith-based initiatives agency. Whitey males who object will either be placed on the official death list or sent to Ghana Gitmo. White women will be placed in a camp run by Cold Cash Jefferson.
