Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

A consequence of cucumbers

DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Let’s finish the job.

No Justins, No Peace

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

T R E 4 5 O N

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

After roe, women are no longer free.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

    Some cult leaders just like the money, but I think the murder-suicide ceremonies are the big draw in this case.

    So Q is some toxic youngish twerp in Arizona. And all those people are following him having no idea who they are following. Quite amazing.

    Tulsi Gabbard was on Sean Hannity tonight and was pushing the Putin line so hard that Hannity had to rein her in.

    Tulsi: Putin has made clear all along that their security is what’s at stake here
    Hannity: I don’t want to interrupt you but Putin has also said Ukraine is not a country and he has been saying this many many years so these territorial ambitions have existed a long time pic.twitter.com/SBGtTsUbJM

    When Sean Dungheap Hannity has to go, “A little less obvious sucking of Putin’s ass, ok?”

    Internet connection apparently in need of a potty break. Went bye-bye for like 20 minutes.

    Not long enough for a cold sweat to break out and palpitations begin.

    Open thread, so I’m seeing multiple reports on Twitter, including from the bureau chiefs of the Financial Times and The Guardian, that Germany’s Chancellor Scholz has killed the Nord Stream 2 pipeline on account of Putin’s Ukraine moves yesterday.

    Good going, Germany!

    You ever see a commie drink a glass of water?

    Vodka. That’s what Tulsi Gabbard drinks, isn’t it? Never water?

    Germany has taken steps to halt the process of certifying the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Tuesday, as the West started taking punitive measures against Moscow over the Ukraine crisis. Source

    KyivIndependent news feed:

    12:43

    external Ukraine initiates process for Russia’s expulsion from EBRD after its recognition of occupied territories in Donbas. Artem Shevalev, a member of the bank’s board of directors, said he raised the issue immediately after this “blatant violation of international law” and that he expects support from other shareholders. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is the largest foreign investor in Russia, according to its website.

    Cheers,
    Scott.

    @Jerzy Russian: Also totally not surprising Q-anon turned out to be a total Walter Mitty.  Then again that wasn’t surprising when Q bailed on his own creation when the voilance got real.

    Q-anon is just much more deadly repeat of the Da Vinche Code. Some surrealist joke that bunch of dimwits took seriously after being egged on by grifters.  Except this time people died.

    @Gin & Tonic: I wonder if Team Biden has any plans to help BoJo find his way back to the path of the righteous. I have no idea what this would look like, but now that Old Blighty is out of the EU, the nights can get awfully cold when you’re on your own, Boris.

    Ron Watkins as Q makes sense, because as ever with conservatives Every Accusation Is A Confession – who better to spin disinfo about powerful child abusers than a guy who got famous by starting an imageboard for folks 4chan banned due to posting too much kiddie porn.

    @Enhanced Voting Techniques: Ron Watkins and his grotesque father are depressing (and deliberately destructive) characters who had at least one  coming out party on the HBO series, “Q: Into The Storm.”  As portrayed there they are nothing so benign as Walter Mitty.  Their ding-bat acolytes come off exactly as one would expect: people living empty, meaningless lives reveling in admission into the secret club with decoder rings of their own construction.  All points on their compasses pointed to their dear political leader and in many cases the interior of the closed- to-the-public US Capitol. It’s tawdry and awful.  It is astonishing to me that I could still be astonished at how low Trump would go to gain allies and exploit the marks lining up for him.

    Well, consider the case of Frank Dux

    https://uproxx.com/movies/bloodsport-jean-claude-van-damme-frank-dux/

    Some dorky enteral teenage boi’s fantasy of being a badass turing into some kind of pop culture thing thanks to Hollywood, grifters jumping in, people getting killed. Sounds familiar. Remember Trump is an entertainer whose character is a businessman and who only saw the presidency as a new reality show.
