Apparently Stone is pretty desperate for attention — guess he doesn’t have Bannon’s talents for schmoozing foreign oligarchs:
… Stone’s throwdown directed at Bannon came during a Tuesday appearance on the far-right Infowars program alongside conspiracy theorist and host Alex Jones.
“Let’s be very clear. Not only did Steve Bannon steal the name of my Infowars show with the great American Owen Shroyer — The War Room — but he testified falsely at my trial against me. He was an informant for Robert Mueller,” Stone stated. “So right now, here, today, I am challenging Steve Bannon to come on Infowars and debate this; let’s have it out. Alex [Jones], you can moderate it, so it stays civil.”
Stone proceeded to taunt Bannon, who has long billed himself as willing to speak to anyone on his “War Room: Pandemic” podcast.
Stone said that Bannon “needs to answer as to why he was working with Robert Muller to destroy me and send me to prison. So there it is, the gauntlet has been laid down, big Steve. Come on, sloppy Steve. We can find you a suit and tie that is clean, I think, and you should come on Infowars and answer what I just said.” …
Gorka, who hawks Mike Lindell’s MyPillows but tosses cold water on his voter fraud theories, is now talking about blocking ultra-MAGA callers numbers with whom he doesn't agree.

Umm, because you’re a career petty criminal who was obviously guilty, and he needed to give up someone to save his own ass?
C’mon, Roger, surely you’re familiar with “no honor among thieves”?

I don’t follow the post-presidential Trump courtiers very closely, but I always approve of disharmony in their ranks.

rooting for injuries just seems kind of tame at this point, considering the people involved should be in holding cells somewhere; yet all I can do is watch them make a few ethically challenged lawyers a bit more wealthy and hope that they continue to piss away their notoriety and finances on these endeavors.

“I always approve disharmony in their ranks” should be a rotating tag.
Can be used in all sorts of scenarios.

Gang fights.
Gardening posts. Who stands for the weeds?

Good old Magyar moron Seborrhea Dorka. Couldn’t be happening to a more deserving fasicst scumbag. Except for Stone. Or Bannon. Or Lewandowski. Or Stephen “Reinhard Heydrich’s Mini-Me” Miller. Or that other putz named Miller. Or anyone currently or formerly named Trump (except for niece Mary)….

The Hill reports that TFG, Jr. has joined something called Cameo, where you can pay “celebrities” to
call you on the phone or somethingsend you personalized video messages. His fee is $525 for a video message (delivery within 2-7 days, within 24 hours it goes up to $787), but for the low, low price of $19.99 “he” will DM you on Twitter. Or something. This is a ridiculous scheme to earn chump change for someone who claims to be rich.NotMax
I swear this place still currently devotes more real estate to Rs than to everything else combined. It’s like some perverse addiction.

@Mary G: I saw his offer, and a request was advertised at $599.99, but a request for what is not explained.

@Mary G:
I’d be happy to accept a video message from TFG Jr. if he paid me US$525. But not one penny less.

@NotMax: Well, I enjoy a good chuckle at their expense as much as anyone, but I’m sure the morning thread will bring out the usual “we’re doomed” posters soon, so full service blog, I guess.

Re Petrizzo’s tweet, Gorka also hawks some kind of patent medicine along with other “stars” like Pat Boone.

The highlight of Stone’s challenge was asking Alex Jones to moderate the debate to keep it “civil”. LOL

They have to be coming apart. This is madness.
How many people know who Alex Ward is? What Infowars is? How many people know who Roger Stone and Sebastien Gorka are? C’mon, while I find it great entertainment, this is political porn. Enjoy it for what it is.

The Gorka thing; it’s clear the MAGA die hard are just desperate to yell at someone but everyone else is blocking/ignoring them now, except the gifter idiots like Gorka.

Would you be OK with “grenades at three paces”? I mean, if they’re going to have the RWMF equivalent of a steel-cage match, they might as well make it interesting.

Gorka is deviating from the party line (i.e., acknowledging reality a little bit)? I didn’t know he had it in him.

Goodness Roger, you must be right, no one would have independently come up with a name as novel as “The War Room”.

The conservative movement in the U.S. reminds me more all the time of the bad guys in C.S. Lewis’ That Hideous Strength.

@…now I try to be amused:
I don’t get how Gorka doesn’t know the Q stuff is run out of Russia. It’s like everybody has their own breaking points. Somebody like Gorka is happy with fascism and fine with TFG supposedly leading the show because he thinks, HE, GORKA will be very important and really calling the shots and running a good fascism, but just suggest that the whole thing is a stupid puppet show set up for failure and he’s noping out of there?
It really seems like some of these people expected to act as catspaw for Putin and still have REAL power. That seems exceedingly dumb and shortsighted.
I think it’s very interesting to see which ones are noping out. We already know folks like the Lincoln Project are the real Republicans but not amused by open fascism (and therefore outnumbered and hoist on their own petard, as they built all this). It’s REAL interesting to see that there’s a contingent of outright fascists who are still not happy with how things have turned out. I guess they believed the cover story?

@Mary G: can you pay him to send you a message that says something like “Hi, This is Donald Trump Jt., and my dad and I are both idiots?” Might be worth it.
...now I try to be amused
@Chris Johnson:
It makes sense. The movement conservatives were the first to recognize that Trump was harming their long-term prospects. It took longer for the movement fascists to recognize that Trump’s charade is harming their long-term prospects too.
