Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

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

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Let there be snark.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Let me file that under fuck it.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

This blog will pay for itself.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

    Marc Elias just solidified his status as ‘American Hero for Democracy’ on Deadline Whitehouse a little bit ago.  Bravo!  If I can find a clip later, I’ll post it.  He had me up on my feet, cheering.  He asked “where is the courage and conviction of all the corporate spox who promised they’d support democracy after J6?  Where are they NOW?” (Paraphrased) Plus a lot more.  We are so obliged to him for his ceaseless work on our behalf.

    Support for Ukraine aid has increased among Americans since last November, according to a Gallup poll released Friday.

    More than a third of respondents, 36 percent, said that they believe the U.S. is not doing enough to help Ukraine in its war against Russia. An equal percentage said the U.S. is doing too much to aid Kyiv, more than two years after Moscow invaded Ukraine.

    In November, 41 percent of those surveyed said the U.S. was doing too much to aid Ukraine, compared to 25 percent who said not enough was being done.

    Is Marge smart enough to have an end game that I can’t figure out?

    Or is she stupid enough to think that all of this is going to get her somewhere good/

    @TBone: After the ‘26 Midterm elections, President Biden needs to reward Elias for his unrelenting fight for democracy with The Presidential Medal of Freedom!

    When Stench finally finishes draining the Republican Party of every last cent and its corpse dries up like spit on a desert highway, who do you think sees herself marching proudly at the head of the new National Patriotic American Citizens Party?

    @WaterGirl: she’s merely an addlebrained, attention seeking heat missile who should be starved of oxygen.  That would finish off the tiny bit of brain cell knocking around in her empty skull.  She’s not called EmptyGreene for nuthin!

    ETA I still think she’s the Hoodie Pipe Bomber. She’s THAT stupid.

    Ian Bremmer has been predicting that Ukraine will be partitioned. If that happens, I will…. I don’t know. Be incredibly sad.

    @Tony Jay: her marching behind that poor kid who survived a mass school shooting, bully-screaming at him, is a memory burned into my brain.  Isn’t that kid an adult in politics now?

    ETA she did the same to AOC 🤬

    @TBone: Medal of Freedom is described as thus:  It recognizes those individuals who have made “an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States, world peace, cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.”

    I think that’s apt. 😊

    @Jackie: the socks showing from the shoes (which match a pair in other photos) and the gait  make me think Sporkfoot.  I think Boobert is too “girly” for such a task. But speculation is not my usual forte!

    @TBone: That was David Hogg, Parkland High shooting survivor. He’s political, but not running (yet!) for office. He’s an advocate for safe guns.

    I might be crude and rude for saying so, but the title of this post is to blame 😆Melanoma the FLOTITS porno photos were worth a million words.  I got repeated Fascistbook jail time for bringing those up in regard to Be Best and posting funny memes and links about them.  One was a Christmas card 😆

    @WaterGirl:

      In the back room of a SteelJerk Style gym, gulping in lungfuls of air thick with talcum powder and the mingled scents of angry sex and steroid gel, Marge pushes away the spadelike hand of today’s whassisname and lunges for her phone. She presses redial and waits, shoulders trembling, for her office to pick up.

    “Boss?”

    “Send Krystalle to the store. Double this time.”

    “Boss? She went yesterd…”

    “More, you prick! Buy it all! I’ve got to be blonder!!”

    “You’re the blondest, Boss. Straight up.”

    Marge’s rough growl fades to a whisper.

    “Blonder than her?”

    “Totally. She’s mousy. Not like you. You shine. Everyone says so.”

    “Good. Good. That’s… that’s good.”

    “You said it, boss. You, uh, you coming in today for the vote?”

    “I’m busy, Todd.”

    “You pumping iron?”

    Marge glances back at whassisname. There’s a face somewhere in the chaos of engorged muscle and torn Lycra, maybe an expression that might be confusion, but it’s not something she gives a damn about.

    “Yeah. Pumping iron.”

    “You want I put out the usual press release? Boss? Boss? You there, Boss? Boss? Is that…? Is someone crying?”

    No. I’ve no idea either. I guess it’s late here and maybe Marge don’t like Liz none.

    @TBone:

    The lumpenMAGAturdiat don’t ask much of their leadership. Just absolute ignorance, a refusal to even pretend they’re not corrupt, and a mindless hostility to anyone or anything that doesn’t fit neatly in the comforting bubble of resentment that makes up their Realer World.

    Screaming hate at smartass kids they’d love to bully and brown women they have complicated feelings about down below is right in their wheelhouse.

    I like the way Marge’s eyes look like they’re pointed to the corresponding side of your head instead of straight at you. I bet they move independently too.

    @TBone: At first I thought it might be Boobert, but she stomps when she walks, like an angry teenage buffalo.  Has to be Margie 3-toes.

    @Tbone One thing I noticed about the pipe-bomber was that it was a woman who was trying to look like a man- so a gender nonconforming pipe-bomber.  Given how much she complains about gender nonconformists, I would bet it was Marge.

    @TBone: Think if she was the Hoodie Pipe Bomber, she’d have been caught by now. She’s not sneaky enough, as that terrorist evidently was and is.

    Why is it I’m having flashbacks to Jeffrey Tambor (as Georgy Malenkov) demanding that the same little girl Stalin posed with be brought for his photo shoot?

    At the moment there’s only one person I despise more than those two (you know, the Mag-a-Lardo Momzer).  The only question I have is, which one of those two I despise more and I think it’s her. Putin is a villain and a tyrant, but at least he’s not a traitor to his own country.
