When couples get a divorce, it’s often said that the marriage ended long before they signed the divorce papers. Our national marriage is in that state – our Constitution is not operative, and nobody can even conceive of a realistic plan to bring it back.
I’ve been putting this off for ages, but wanted to spit something out before the election so as to avoid having this appear like a reaction to said election. Besides, my position doesn’t depend on whether there’s a Red Wave or not, or whether Pennsylvanians send a Bernie-bro with the cognitive capacity of a baked potato to the Senate. While I certainly have preferences in next week’s election and will be voting accordingly*, it ultimately doesn’t matter a lot in the long run who wins because the republic doesn’t exist anymore.
The bureaucracies are sovereign. The voters and our representatives are not institutionally capable of reining them in. The IRS leaks tax data for blatantly political purposes without so much as an “oops!” and harasses political undesirables at will with no consequences. The FBA/CIA/NSA run nonstop domestic election interference via both legacy media and new media while ignoring left wing riots (that were probably instigated by the FBI), clinic firebombings, assassination attempts, etc. Endless lawfare harassment against bakers and photographers who dare to hold traditional values, and by “traditional” I mean “widely held as of about five minutes ago”.
They do this right in front of our faces. It’s more effective for them to do it right in front of you so that understand exactly how screwed you are. Your Congress-critters, should they oppose this (-and many don’t), are utterly powerless to stop it. You, the voter, are utterly powerless to stop it.
You think it’s maybe not a great idea to have public school teachers hide your child’s gender transition from you? You think that maybe elections should be secure, and that voting should be a discrete event rather than a month-long scramble to produce passable ballots? You think that laws mean anything? What are you, some kind of terrorist?
I’m not sure if it’s more funny or sad when folks on the right try to espouse federalism/decentralization/ subsidiarity as the solution to our national disunity. It’s not funny/sad because they are bad concepts. Far from it. It’s funny/sad because their hope for restoration of the Constitution is like Kanye West asking Kim to come home. The left has no interest in allowing conclaves of right-leaning folks to do as they please.
Sorry fellas, the Constitution is out having sex with Pete Davidson right now, and I don’t think it wants to come home.
Time to draw up the divorce papers.
*(Yes I will be voting for the snake oil salesman from New Jersey.)
Breyer is retiring, and Joey Sprinkles gets to appoint somebody. Somebody of a preordained gender and race.
Do I care? Not really.
It’s an even swap, ideologically. So other than trading a rusty old lefty in for a newer model with fewer miles on her, it’s almost a good idea to put the fear of the God they mostly don’t believe in into the Never Trump swamp creatures, to show them what happens when muh norms and muh principles are too sacrosanct to vote for the Bad Orange Man.
We probably couldn’t stop it even if we tried. (Unless, that is, Sinema doesn’t care for being called a C-U-Next-Tuesday and decides to show them what that really means.)
Judicial temperament doesn’t matter. They’ll just lie about it anyway–see how “moderate” Merrick Garland turned out. (Dodged a bullet there – Mega props to Cocaine Mitch for that one.)
Qualifications barely matter. Case in point, that bloody moron Sotomayor. Whoever Brandon picks can’t possibly be dumber than the supposedly “wise Latina”.
To the extent that qualifications matter, there are a few qualified-at-least-on-paper individuals to pick from who match the race/gender preference. They can pull from their vaunted Ivy League, and don’t have to go slumming for a left-leaning, higher melanin content Harriet Miers.
The Court is irredeemably political anyway, and we’re really just counting votes. Whoever was to be appointed, whether of the stated race and gender or not, they were always going to be a solid left vote. The Court gave up actual jurisprudence a long time ago, what with the twelve-pronged by three-tined malarkey “tests” that are actually just retconning a predetermined outcome onto the fact pattern in evidence.
The stakes are so much lower than other “anti-racist” appointments like the Kamala Harris VP pick, what with the whole line of succession thing potentially giving Harris the nuclear football.
One thing I do rather tire of, is the “Well at least a young [insert ethnicity/gender/sexual proclivity] child has somebody to look up to who looks like them.” Yes, all things being equal I’m all for that. But if I were a [insert ethnicity/gender/sexual proclivity], I’d kind of want the person “representing” me to be competent. What does it tell a young girl that, yes, if you polish some prominent mayor’s knob and cackle nervously at any modestly difficult question, you too can someday be Vice President of the United States, so long as you fit a predetermined identity profile that has nothing to do with your qualifications for office?
Yes, the Taliban put two grim looking goat fuckers with AKs behind this news anchor who totally wasn’t forced to say the Taliban are our friends. The guy on the left looks as if he kills the goats after he fucks them.
Now, back to our ridiculous future history in most of its entirety!
Biden’s retreat from Afghanistan has been the worst series of military decisions since the Charge of the Light Brigade,
It was so bad Marine LtC Stuart Scheller threw away his career, and said he was doing so, to call out his chain of command.
Naturally he faced the consequences he knew were coming, he’d done it out of honor for love of country. As everybody is noticing, another LtC, LtC Bearclaw as Ace calls him, disobeyed orders from his commander in chief and badmouthed same and the only repercussions were well paid positions. He’d done it for love of our fine betters against his oath on and to the Constitution.
Meanwhile, and then this really happened, this soldier has no worries about repercussions for saying
Understand that if active duty military actually get deployed within the United States that weapon is not just pointed at other people, other countries. It’s pointed at you. If you do not get in your house when I tell you to, you become the enemy.
The remaking of the military is going gangbusters.
Back to the retreat of the heavy brigade,
…and then, this really happened, Biden actually gave the Taliban the names of people we want to get out because we are afraid the Taliban will kill them.
Defense Department officials said one of the Islamic State drone targets was a “planner,” and one was a “facilitator.” Both, they said, were involved in planning attacks against Americans, although officials at a news conference on Saturday declined to say whether they were involved specifically in the Kabul airport attack.
So just some guys cruising around in a Toyota pickup. That’ll learn ’em!
And then this really happened, Biden’s Partners For Peace are screwing up the order on one of the worst things to screw it up, they’re killing then raping.
“They rape dead bodies too. They don’t care whether the person is dead or alive… Can you imagine this?”
The other is, of course, ‘pillage, then burn’.
Obama created ISIS, Trump crushed them and sent them into hiding, and then this really happened,
Potential Islamic State threats against Americans in Afghanistan are forcing the U.S. military to develop new ways to get evacuees to the airport in Kabul, a senior U.S. official said Saturday…
small groups of Americans and possibly other civilians will be given specific instructions on what to do, including movement to transit points where they can be gathered up by the military
So they won’t actually go and gather Americans to defend them from savages, they have to sneak their way past gangs of roving murderous savages to make it to the military.
an all-volunteer group of American veterans of the Afghan war launched a final daring mission on Wednesday night dubbed the “Pineapple Express” to shepherd hundreds of at-risk Afghan elite forces and their families to safety,
Goat fucking, 7 century savages have absolutely no fear of America, and apparently rightly so.
And then this really happened, folks in the US and UK called for reparations to…. the Taliban!
Richard Burgon, a member of the British Parliament for the far-Left Labour party and Secretary of the Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs,(said)…what the West really needs to do now is start forking over money to the Taliban
Now they’re just fucking with us.
And then this really happened, the POTUS is now telling our enemies that we know about their plans
President Joe Biden on Saturday warned that another attack on the Kabul airport was “highly likely
That was, of course, a staple of the Obama years and somewhat curbed under Trump
The state department has urged all US citizens to leave the area near the airport because of a “specific, credible threat”….
The US is continuing evacuations
And then this really happened, a suicide bomber killed many people, including Marines and a Navy medic, so Biden actually went to see their bodies when they arrived in America but he was late for a nap or pudding
And then this really happened, everybody blamed the guy who wasn’t in charge
The images coming out of Afghanistan have been disturbing. But let’s be clear: The Trump Administration led us straight into this mess. And President Biden is doing everything he can to get us out of it.
Six months after the conclusion of the last impeachment, Republicans have begun calling for President Biden to be removed from office over his handling of the evacuation of Americans and allies from Kabul.
That from the Wash Post, who were all in on impeaching Trump for wanting the investigate corruption by the Biden Crime Family and whatever the other impeachment was about, now they’re against impeaching Biden for non-ridiculous reasons.
Out of 1,000 likely voters surveyed August 24-25, 2021, just 29% said they “trust what the news media are reporting about the current situation in Afghanistan.”
Yes, that really happened, and yet people still act as if the media is trustworthy. We’ve seen it since they were lying about Bush.
So what else scary is going on? The reaction to Kung Flu of course.
And then this really happened!
So as the “free” world is attacking their citizens for wanting to live free, they know who’s not to blame for the Wuhan Flu that came from Wuhan, the lab in Wuhan to be exact, Wuhan being in China and the lab being a gov’t lab.
And then this really happened,
Notwithstanding, histrionic Chinese officials are threatening to retaliate against any nation that names the Wuhan Institute of Virology bat lab as the point source of the pathogen.
China warned the world not to blame it for the pandemic it unleashed.
And then this really happened, everything seems to cure Covid
Long-used cholesterol drug may help fight severe COVID-19.
Science journalist Alex Berenson has been permanently suspended from Twitter, just one day after a viral series of tweets spotlighting an Israeli preprint study which showed that natural immunity from a prior Covid infection is 13 times more effective than vaccines against the delta variant.
The endiness is just so bad it’s hard to appreciate, but that is about funny.
And then this really happened, someone had to explain why it’s a bad idea to vacation in a murderous commie dictatorship’s gulag.
The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, which runs a monument to 1700s history in Virginia, has created a “Gender Diversity Committee” to create “programs and reenactments geared toward educating the public on LGBTQ history in the colonies.”
Words fail me. I bet they leave that out of the history books because it would destroy their credibility.
a reporter named Maranie Staab was attacked by members of an Antifa-affiliated group. After complaining about a report she’d done in Colombia in conjunction with TK News, they maced her, shot paint at her, and threw her to the ground.
And then this really happened, when one group planned a protest and another group came expressly to get violent and try to stop the protest, the people whose reporter/propagandist was assaulted, blamed both sides.
After a series of violent street clashes between left and right activists in Los Angeles, right-wing protesters planned a “United We Win” rally in Portland, Oregon for this past weekend. Antifa and left-wing groups pledged to “defend Portland from racist fascists.”
Can’t we all just get along? Stop thinking you have free speech so they don’t have to attack you!
Let’s cancel National Review! A guy at work brought in an old copy of NR so I read through it, it had this advertisement
They’re supporting slavery! Cancel them! The dastards!
and then this happened
So whataday think is coming next month?
This?
I know what I’m rooting for
Man, the last few posts have been much angrier than my usual, laugh in the face of the endiness.
I’m not sure if it’s me or if the endiness is just so horrific that it’s hard to appreciate the humor of whoever’s running things giving the names of people we want to protect from the Taliban to the Taliban or boning our allies and our own people.
The last 5 days have been utterly insane. I try not to look at stuff from Afghanistan but it’s so outrageously unbelievable and continuously adding more unbelievable outrageousness.
Much as I hate to do it, let’s start there.
I’m not posting the picture, but a bunch of goat and little boy fucking savages copied the iconic photo of the US Marines on Iwo Jima raising our flag.
Yes, they’re mocking the United fucking States fucking Marine fucking Corps.
In part thanks to the actions of Marine General “Mad Dog” Mattis and in accordance with his wishes.
I hope that motherfucking, oath-breaking, insurrectionist is fucking happy. It’s not my place, but the rest of the Marine Corps should declare the first ex-Marine.
And not just the Marine Corps, but they’re ordering all US military out of their ‘country’ by 9/11.
They probably want us out before whatever horrible terrorist attacks are going to happen on 9/11 so we’d have to decide to go back, get ready to go back and then actually go back. Which wouldn’t happen for the foreseeable future.
And in the Taliban’s defense, they’re entirely too mockable.
The Brit told him to go fuck himself, hopefully in those words. With other words questioning his manhood, parentage, procreational acumen and equipment. If it was a woman, I hope he made gender proper insults.
Without asking the general’s pronouns.
That shit is just embarrassing.
Of course, as Biden said it’s no problem getting to the airport.
He has a plan to evacuate them.
Well, not so much a plan as a hope that our fine media betters don’t report on the thousands of executions we’re about to not see.
Despicable and embarrassing. This sucks and it’s only going to get worse. A whole lot fucking worse.
The Taliban is showing off the weapons we paid for that they have but We The People don’t.
Helpfully illustrated
In the Glorious Now instead of Funny Cuz It’s True we have Not Funny Cuz It’s True.
And lest you think our fine betters in the State Dept are not on the job,
I wonder if they got absentee ballots. I mean for federal elections, California absentee ballots are a given.
Oh crap, they denied it. Hmmm, as I think about that, I’m actually thinking it really won’t affect their mission in Afghanistan, since they do not currently have a mission to evacuate anybody in Afghanistan. Whew, dodged that bullet!
Afghanistan is about Afghanistan – if you’re Afghan or Pakistani…
Afghanistan is not about Afghanistan, Afghanistan is not a country, it’s a place that no country wants enough to keep it.
Afghanistan to Pakistanis and Afghanis is about their own tribe and which tribes they’re allied with and which tribes they’re fighting.
As for alliances, they are just a convenience, they rarely have anything to do with who each tribe is going to attack.
The People’s Front of Afghanistan will ally with the Afghanistan Front of People against the People of the Front of Afghanistan but when battle starts, the Afghanistan Front of People suddenly join the People’s Front of Afghanistan against the People of the Front of Afghanistan! But wait! Suddenly the Afghanistan Front of People are joined by the People’s Afghanistan of Front against the……..and so on, century after century. They can’t even get together to repel an invader.
It’s like Syria with no central gov’t but with more little boy fucking and better beards.
I was fer going in, not so thrilled with “nation building” where there has never been a nation. I did have a plan for leaving a few years ago, it involved bombing much of the country with fuel air explosives, nuking the Pak border and leaving a few Marines with Ospreys, some of the 10th Mountain and a shitload of A-10s and Apaches.
The nukes were possibly a bit much, but that would have been better than what we have now.
That’s all the Afghanistan I can take, let’s look at something happy!
Whoever’s running the federal gov’t is ignoring the Taliban to focus on the real enemy.
BIDEN PREPARES TO SQUARE OFF WITH TEXAS AND FLORIDA OVER MASK MANDATES
One of the themes of this brave new world is how America might be boned, but the rest of the world is astronimcally more boned.
“These protestors want their freedoms back.”
Watch the whole, short, thing if you ran out of coffee and need an adrenaline fix to get going. I made it about 25 seconds. I had enough coffee this morning.
If you want more of the same, click here. It’s half infuriating, half frustrating and half depressing. Too many halves for me. Australia is going to a scary place.

Seattle residents, tired of their streets being used for homeless encampments and vehicles, blocked off parking spaces with cement blocks only to cited by the city.
According to Vorhies, Google had tweaked its algorithms to ensure that people only saw negative stories from the mainstream media about former president Donald Trump when they used the search engine. He admits that the Big Tech platform altered its news algorithms to harm the president’s reputation, as well as the 2020 presidential election.
Yeah, we saw that, and anybody who wanted to know could have discovered it. Most people don’t want to know and/or are happy it happened.
Leaders’ Debates Commissioner David Johnston has confirmed that leaders of five political parties will be invited to participate in the upcoming election debates — but People’s Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier is not among them.
I don’t care enough to find out if they’re commies as their name implies, but I don’t care.
FBI starts to cloud their involvement in January 6th False Flag Operation.
I might have taken a liberty with the end of that quote.
The motive for the FBI to say there is “scant evidence” of any coordinated group activity in the January 6th Capitol Hill events is transparent. The FBI need to cloud their involvement, their coordination, their agents, their planted informants and the FBI direction in the events.
And bingo was his name-o.

Sure they didn’t have antibiotics or deodorant, but this makes a good argument.
A coupla current events related ones
actually, this next one is totally not current events related at all. Not at all.
Yup, totally unrelated to anything that happened in November 2020
Speaking of events that didn’t happen, I hope Roberts is happy at what his fecklessness and probable corruption have wrought.
I had a heck of a time getting home the other day.
That’s freaking great.
A little personal business.
I’m pretty darn paranoid (but am I paranoid enough?), the other day I left work at about 12:45 am and got on the highway. I set my cruise for 80 so I don’t get a ticket (I love AZ), and passed a guy as soon as I got on the highway.
He sped up and started following me. I hadn’t come close to piss him off but, eh, I figured he just wanted me to get the ticket.
He got off at my exit, 10 or so miles later. He followed me through 4 lights to the right turn on my street, a major street. I noticed it but thought I was being too paranoid so didn’t worry about it. Much.
He turned into my trailer park. What the fuck? Now I’m really fucking paranoid. I went past my street and just went straight, if he followed me I was going to just pull over and get out to see what his deal was but he turned down my street. WTF? I was glad I didn’t turn that way because that would have freaked me out. I went around a block and saw him go up the next cross street, turn and pull into a driveway.
I figure he saw my car, knew it because he drives by my place a lot and there aren’t a lot of silver Mustang convertibles cruising the greater Phoenix metro area with a devilishly handsome, balding, silver-haired, fat guy driving.
For a second I thought Hayzeus was looking for my new place, good thing it wasn’t. I was gonna put sugar in his tank for a change.
The Pentagon has two weeks to rescue tens of thousands of people from war-torn Afghanistan as the Taliban inch toward the capital city of Kabul and demand a ‘peaceful transfer of power.’
According to U.S. and foreign intelligence sources cited by (a minitrue outlet I’m not linking) Chinese Communist Party leaders are preparing to formalize their relationship with the Islamist insurgents.

On the light side, our intelligence officials are all over The Investigation Into The Worst Day In American History!!!!!!!!!
It’s been almost seven months since the FBI conducted a pre-dawn raid at the Virginia farm of Thomas and Sharon Caldwell. Dozens of armed agents broke down their front door, ransacked their home, and arrested Tom Caldwell on January 19. A week later, a grand jury indicted Caldwell and two other alleged Oath Keepers for various crimes related to their participation in the Capitol protest on January 6.
Despite the fact Caldwell never entered the building, carried no weapon, and assaulted no one, the Justice Department sought to keep the 66-year-old former Navy lieutenant with service-related disabilities in jail awaiting trial. Caldwell, a decorated military veteran, has no criminal record.
Nonetheless, on February 12, Judge Amit Mehta ordered Caldwell to remain behind bars: “What Mr. Caldwell is accused of is conspiring with others to plot an insurrection against the junta that illegally stole an election.
I may have altered the last line of that quote.
The Obama habit of telling judges to go fuck themselves Is Back!
Mehta said it was “troubling” to learn that the full trove of discovery material won’t be accessible to defendants until early 2022. That means defendants like Caldwell will have to wait at least a year before all the evidence related to their case will be available to defense attorneys…
told Judge Trevor McFadden in a hearing July 30, would not be met until early 2022 and that was a “conservative” estimate, she said. McFadden replied, “this does not feel what the Constitution [and] the Speedy Trial Act envisions.”
Brian Kolfage, an airman who survived losing both legs and an arm in Iraq, started a fundraiser to build a wall on our Southern border. The project took off, a lot of money flowed in, and the federal government promptly went after Kolfage, accusing him of defrauding those who donated money. This post is not about Kolfage’s guilt or innocence on the charges against him.
I however will speculate about his guilt or innocence.
Since they’re such cynically evil bastids, I figure he was arrested not for scamming folks but for actually trying to build the wall our betters don’t want built.
In other light news, I am looking forward to our fine media betters giving a black man the Trump TreatmentTM

I can watch that for hours.
My hero!
A repost, Conan had the Riddle of Steel, we have the Riddle of Brass
In closing I’d just like to say my faith in corporate America has been restored.
Last week I needed a part for the a/c in my Mustang, I went online and nobody had it on Sunday, Ford parts dept. was closed on Sunday, so Saturday afternoon I went to O’Reilly’s Auto Parts and they claimed they’d have it delivered to the nearest store by 10:30 AM. I figured no way, but since I’m an optimist, I tried. Lo and behold it was there! On time and on target!!!!!!
Imagine my surprise.
So Friday I ordered a laptop at Best Buy, I was going to pick it up at the store yesterday but they said they’d deliver it Saturday. No show. Today it showed that they had no idea when I’d get it and I couldn’t pick it up at the store. I called up and told the customer service named Sally or something, with a suspiciously Indian sounding accent, told me they didn’t know when it would be delivered and no, I couldn’t pick it up at the store. I told her I would cancel it if I couldn’t pick it up. She said, “Okay” with absolutely no attempt to keep my business. That’s how American corporations are supposed to act.
So I ordered a better computer for $50 more at Staples.
An hour later a Best Buy truck showed up with the computer, maybe, might have been the external DVD/CD drive I ordered too, she said she only had one item. I told her I’d cancelled it because of what they told me. She was nice, but I wasn’t interested. If they don’t want my business who am I to argue?
The a/c in my Mustang has been working great. It was cooler last week, less than 100 degrees, but the humidity made me happy I had a/c. It was nearly 50% all week!
So what did we learn today?
O’Reilly’s did what they promised and the Valerie Jarrett Admin is a bunch of anti-American assho….. wait, we knew that last part.
I started this post a long time ago, ^that long ago. Stacy Abrams as Gigantor. Or was it Gigantor as Stacy Abrams?

Can’t decide where to put the scissors, and just do a gelding or go for the package deal?
IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR SHIT I SHOULD HAVE PUT HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!!!!
Lest we forget in all this making fun of the Geldings,
Lottsa old going on but some new since last we met.
Let’s break out our trusty GOP voter device one last time for Bill Barr
GOP Voter Device
Barr’s leaving but he did his job, he got GOP voters arfing, slapping their fins and honking their squeezy bulbs but did absolutely jack and shit. And shit ran out of gum.
He could have done something like, ohh…….. arrest someone for all the fucking feloniously treasonous actions taken against Trump and now the election but he didn’t and now his job is done.
Ignoring that the machines used to cheat Joe into winning are blatantly set up to fucking cheat. Remember when Diebold was going to steal an election? As with everything the left accuses others of doing, they’re doing it.
Biden and his criminal family belong in jail but instead he has a good chance of becoming POTUS ,at least partially thanks to Barr (and all the other AGs) not doing his job.
Which brings us to PACO’s post It’s all about pissing me off.
2) Judges – even the highest in the land – are as susceptible to threats and intimidation as anyone, and the SCOTUS justices have calculated that there is more to fear from the Left than from the Right (see #1);
3) Judges refusing to do their job, for any reason, are demonstrating cowardice;
4) Any state (which I took to mean not only political sub-units of the U.S., such as Michigan or Pennsylvania, but the nation-state, as well) that cannot ensure a fair election deserves no respect whatsoever.
Exactly on point 4. I’d say there’s some blackmail and maybe fear but I’d bet there’s a lot more money involved in Roberts’ deal.
Our fine betters in the uniparty have no idea what they’re playing with. Everybody knows that the rule of law is dead now, how many law-abiding people are going to act accordingly?
The media and our political betters in the GOP and Dem party think they know what they’re doing, they’re smarter than we are after all, but I don’t think anybody knows what’s going to happen.
How will people resist the more and more random, unnecessary, confusing and yet blatantly controlling edicts coming out of so many pols’ mouth?
Who’s going to enforce their will?
The cops they’re been shitting on for a long fucking time? The ones who are leaving in droves?
Of course, that could be part of the plan, if I thought those idiots weren’t idiots. Get rid of cops who care and keep the young and malleable. I don’t know, that’s an interesting thought. ‘Interesting’ as in “unsettling.”
Are they counting on the military? To ignore the Constitution they take an oath on?
Yeah, about that.
That’s the military cheering Trump. As they do whenever they can. He hasn’t started any new wars and was getting us out of the endless wars around the world.
I can’t believe the military leadership wants us in fucking Syria. My long time plan still stands, give any and all jihadis a ride to the area of Syria of their choice, give them an AK, rpg or bomb vest as they get off the bus. We don’t need Americans dying in the bucket of scorpions. Somehow I think the people who’ve had to actually deal with syrian jihadis feel the same way.
So what’s the fucking point? Are they really expecting to use cops and the military to take our guns? I mean, sure Obama revamped our officer corps, but they’re not the ones out in the field to shoot Americans.
What the hell is going to happen next month? Seriously. People who think 2021 is going to be less bad than 2020, well, they’re going to have a rude awakening. 2021 is going to be fucking interesting.
The worst part? I have to watch what I say and wearing Trump gear is actually an act of bravery in many places. That’s fucked up.
And getting fucked uppeter.
How fucked uppeter? Firefly reimagined by Disney. That’s how far up we are fucked.
My source tells me that Disney is in early development on a Firefly reboot. The new show would start the story of Captain Mal Reynolds and his crew aboard the Serenity over from scratch, with an aim to make this a long-running series on Disney+. There is a twist here and the twist is that they see the show as ideal family-friendly programming for Disney+. My source tells me they’re planning to target it more at a PG-adventure, family audience and less at the sort of PG-13 dynamic the original Joss Whedon show went for.
Although I shouldn’t pick on Disney, there isn’t really anybody who could do it and not make it cringe-worthy. Joss Whedon is a lefty tool, he’d make a subplot where Mal goes crazy because all anti-gov’t types are one shot of whiskey away from killing everyone in sight to people like him.
Caballero story, it’s been sitting for a long time. The gas tank is leaking. My Mustang needed work and other stuff has needed money. I’ve taken a while off from throwing money down the caballero’s exhaust. I hope heyzeus is happy now.
Eh, I thought I had more links, but really, what is there to talk about right now?
Well, the debt that’s getting ridicudebtacular. We blew past $30 trillion like nothing. We’ll be $40 trillion in debt by 2023 or 2024. Seriously, how long can we go when we’ll be borrowing money to pay just the interest on our debt?
I didn’t foresee exactly what happened, but about 15 years ago I started wishing for an asteroid strike. I really think it would have been less destructive than what’s about to happen.
Holy moly! We’re seeing new things! I mean, we’re seeing all the old things but with a new twist.

Trump is retweeting Judicial Watch discuss the coup, making me wonder if he’s actually considering my Fire the Dept of “Justice” and replace them with Judicial Watch” plan. That would be awesome.
Barr, the AG, told Congress about Obama and co. spying on Trump and the butthurt is awesome.
Evidence Free is going to make a comeback! Can Inadvertent and Incidental be far behind?
Charles Krauthammer, who usually provides center-Right analysis, stated categorically that:
“It’s a farce, you know, the idea that everyone in this town – the media – the agencies – the congress – are running around chasing their tails on a story that everyone knows it’s not true, but having to pretend that it might be because he’s the President when we know how it’s going to end.”
This is absurd.
Yes, yes it was. I do have to wonder if it’s going to get more…how much more absurd it’s going to get. I’m not sure exactly how much more absurd we can survive.
Ace has a bunch of updates on his post that show testimony from years ago that maybe, possibly, could point out how it was an attempt at a coup. You should click over there, it’s in a much more compact form than the archives of various righty blogs from the last few years. The ‘new’ part is that our fine betters are having to notice it and/or twist into absurd contortions pretending they weren’t all in on that stupidity. They are facing a crisis. They might even have to admit to themselves that they were nitwits.
Now I wonder how happy normal Americans, even people who don’t like Trump, are going to react if there are no repercussions for felonious treason as our betters explain it away.
Is it time? Will there actually be repercussions? (warning: That’s a ‘busy’ page. Lots of stuff going on.)
The Justice Department’s watchdog is reportedly looking into an FBI informant who was a source for the bureau’s Russia investigation during the 2016 election cycle.
Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s investigators are asking questions about Stefan Halper, an American professor at Cambridge University, who met with members of President Trump’s campaign, according to the New York Times…
Attorney General William Barr has assembled a “team” to investigate the origins of the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign, an administration official briefed on the situation told Fox News on Tuesday.
I have to admit, I’m even thinking of breaking out my GOP Voter Device for reals.
GOP Voter Device
I might even ‘arf’. I ain’t slapping my fins until there’s a perpwalk though.
Of course, it’s not really a Republican doing it, it’s Trump.
In spite of everything the GOP can do he’s still keeping on keeping on. They’re fighting him on his whole agenda, they just will not send him any legislation or even allow him to do what he’s trying to do. They don’t even ‘view with concern’ all the times the “Justice” Dept absolutely ignored everything judges involved in their cases had to say.
Especially considering this, someone from the RNC talking about Mueller.
MARTIN: What’s your reaction? I’m sure you have many, but what’s your top line reaction to today’s report?
DHILLON: Well, the president was completely vindicated and exonerated after two years of false allegations and really, what I consider to be a coup attempt against his presidency. But we are not cheering, most of us here on the Republican side, because it is atrocious and outrageous that the Department of Justice and the FBI and these other institutions were hijacked for a partisan end, and that for two years, our president was not allowed to fully carry out his agenda because of this cloud hanging over his presidency.
So far so good, then this
And I will also say on the other side, the Democrats in Congress don’t appear to be willing to let this go either. So I don’t think we’ve seen the end of this entire situation by a long stretch.
That’s code for, “We’ll work with our very good friends across the aisle to bring them to justice!”
It works better if you read that in John McCain’s voice and think of what legislation they’ll pass to make sure we can’t do what they did.
Here Trump’s going around Congress by doing a little creative funding,
White House officials will shift about $3.6 billion in military construction funds to build President Donald Trump’s controversial southern border wall
He’s reaching back to his construction days. Hmmmm, do you think he’ll pull out another of his faves, bankruptcy? How funny would it be if we went bankrupt. Our whole gov’t letting their phones go to voicemail. That could be a good alternative to an asteroid. Something to think about anyway.
The problem is that leftism has become utterly absurd and utterly untethered to reality.
America can survive that for a while, we’re strong and isolated from powerful enemies, Israel literally cannot survive pretending the community based reality is actual reality. They are constantly facing a literal existential threat so pretending idiocies can only ensure they’re all dead.
“CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something,
has been illuminating for many people who’d managed to avoid learning things about Dems.
Speaking of keeping people from learning bad things about Democrats, Jim Acosta has won an award for keeping Americans from learning bad things about Democrats while reporting made up bad things about the bad Orange Man!
The New York Press Club announced the recipient of their “Truth to Power” award: CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta.
The guy who was kicked out of the press room for acting like a petulant, spoiled, tantrumy 5 year old
Truth To Power!!!!! Which in the current issue of Newspeak has this non-artist’s rendition:
It’s stuff like that that lets you know exactly how imaginative the Babylon Bee is, it’s really hard to think up stuff more absurd than Dems already do. Remember this?
They’ve managed to get more absurd. That takes skill….real willful-ignorance!
A whine. I’m sick of the phone companies and computer companies and tech companies thinking they own my phone and my computer. I’m sick of my stuff constantly “updating”, which updates are usually just things they think I need, like changing the solitaire game or something equally important. Right now every time I play solitaire I get a dialogue box that asks if I want to go online and do fun stuff!!!. It doesn’t give me the option of “No”, I can do it now or later. Since I never play solitaire while I’m online, I think I piss it off.
My phone is full of Google apps. I keep turning them off and they keep turning back on. I can turn off “Google Location Service” a brazilion times and it comes back on a brazilion and one.
As most of us saw at Ace’s, Google does manually change searches so it’s harder to find stuff they don’t want us to find.
I’m about done with Amazon too. I just don’t trust those assholes. And we see this
Amazon.com Inc. employs thousands of people around the world to help improve the Alexa digital assistant powering its line of Echo speakers. The team listens to voice recordings captured in Echo owners’ homes and offices. The recordings are transcribed, annotated
It’s for your own good! You belong them Amazon. Just because I bought the Kindle and buy the books doesn’t mean I own them. Just as with my phone and my computer.
My kindle is also always updating, I can’t stop them from doing it. They’re not fixing anything, they’re just putting in spyware and ads. When I buy a new book and connect to the tubes, it often takes 5 minutes or more before it starts downloading my books.
I’m going to start figuring out another way to get e-books. I will buy lots of actual books, but there are Kindle writers, but I’ll probably get some of them on paper. I am thinking of getting another cheap Kindle and never connecting with the one I now own again.
This guy met up with some Antifa Fightin’ Fascists. They found out that, while they’re big on the fascism part, they ain’t so hot at fighting.
Yes. We bullied Antifa. We punched them in the face. We took their flags. And we ate their pizza.
First and foremost, I want to boast that I got to punch a commie. In the defense of one of my fellow Americans that was being attacked, I actually got to punch a commie. Granted, he was a weak, noodle-y looking thing, but I got a shot in before the cops stepped in the middle of it and prevented more. I also got a souvenir from one of them. I kept offering to give it back to them if one of them was brave enough to come and take it from me; sadly, the cowards didn’t take me up on it. As I advised readers not long ago, get yourself to a protest.
Man, just tubing my tube is all about seeing shit we’ve been talking about for more than a year. That’s why I can’t work up a good OUTRAGE!!!!! I mean, I’ve been fucking OUTRAGED!!!! by this shit for a long dam time so seeing others finally notice it and act all surprised is sorta frustrating.
The FBI agent who was fired from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation team for sending anti-Donald Trump text messages conducted the interviews with two Hillary Clinton aides accused of giving false statements about what they knew of the former secretary of state’s private email server.
Neither of the Clinton associates, Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin, faced legal consequences for their misleading statements, which they made in interviews last year with former FBI section chief Peter Strzok
Well, duh. We watched that Tom Sawyer “Investigation”/whitewashing unfold last year in the months leading up to the election and we’ve been watching the search for something, anything! on Trump since the election.
ABC News on Saturday suspended investigative reporter Brian Ross for four weeks without pay for his erroneous report on Michael Flynn, which it called a “serious error.”
We all know the reason he’s been suspended is because he got caught fabricating a story, not that he fabricated a story. If any of our minitrue betters were serious about being against fakenews, CNN would be off the air and the NY Times would be fresh out of journolisters. The Wash Post doesn’t even pretend and hasn’t since Chimpy McBusHitler was raining terror across the world.
U.S. House Republicans are drafting a contempt of Congress resolution against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray, claiming stonewalling in producing material related to the Russia-Trump probes and other matters.
Yeah, we’ve been getting smacked in the face with fish for a long time now, this bit is particularly stinky.
Contempt proceedings don’t mean shit. They have avenues they could go that would actually accomplish something, this is just to get us arfin’ and honkin’.
Volunteers have criticised the Red Cross charity after receiving a communication telling them to remove crucifixes from the walls of their branches as the organisation looks to become more secular.
The Red Cross is getting rid of crosses. Pretty darn funny.
Of course, we’ve all known the International Red Cross is full of lefty assholes who hate Xtians for a long time. Duh. They’re getting away from that icky ‘cross’ thing and focusing on the Red thing.
Jeff Flake hates the people who voted for him, film at….uhhh…. whenever he’s on camera I guess.
That’s the guy running against Roy Moore. You see, Flake’s not against Conyers or Al Franken but this guy? String him up!
I wonder, did John McCain ‘groom’ him in some perverted way or was he just lying when he acted like a conservative in the House? I’ll admit, I arfed for that asshole. Makes me fell like an idiot that does.
Thomas Homan, acting chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said Monday that immigration enforcement is thriving under President Trump’s leadership unlike any recent commander in chief.
Yeah, see… that was his biggest draw as a candidate. That and
We all know I like to Yell at Headlines!, let’s yell at this one!
Media meltdown and the damage it does to democracy
No, democracy is causing the media meltdown. They get upset when we vote the wrong way.
In other words, our fine media betters damage democracy by their lying and fakenewsing, now that we’re onto their schtick and voted the wrong damn way last year they’re melting down.
Is the IG going after Hillary’s Bitches? Now that would be a fucking surprise. I hope that’s not just trying to get me to arf, honk and forget that the whole Dept. of “Justice” needs to be thrown in jail and be replaced by the fine folks at Judicial Watch.
Judicial Watch today released 29 pages of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) documents related to the June 27, 2016, tarmac meeting between former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton. The documents show that FBI officials were more concerned about leaks than the actual meeting itself
That’s the shit the DO”J” should be for, not against. And why they all need to be fired and replaced with Judicial Watch folks.
President Donald Trump unveiled a plan Monday in Utah to dramatically scale back two national monuments – calling it an important move for ‘states’ rights.’
Trump’s a northeast liberal, they are against western states using their land for people. In the east, they took care of that shit decades/centuries ago so they can afford to be all against that shit.
Of course, as we all know, ‘states rights’ is code for “slavery” and since we all know Trump is a slaver since he stopped bribing Dems and put that (R) after his name so we all should have known that.
This is awesome, but I learned it long ago.
That’s why I don’t buy presents for my family, I got sick of being called names by willfully-ignorant fools.
The Obama administration deliberately sought to downplay how robust the al-Qaida network was in the lead up to the 2012 election by selectively releasing documents that enforced a preferred narrative, The Weekly Standard reports, citing experts at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and New York Times Correspondent Rukmini Callimachi.
I was looking for a quote from Ambassador Stevens but he’s dead. Cuz Obama was downplaying al Quaeda in the runup to the 2012 election.
I also remember saying that Obama was dishonestly downplaying it at the time, I don’t feel like looking but I was writing about that, I seem to recall Ace and the puppy blender doing the same.
As always, being right too soon is one of the greatest crimes there is.
Nother thing I remember writing about Trump was that if he only stopped Obama’s policies of stopping economic growth, we’d have a boom toot sweet. Well, this toot is pretty sweet.
Don’t look now, but U.S. growth forecasts are moving higher. That’s helping to support U.S. stocks. Projections for U.S. economic growth from two Federal Reserve banks have risen in recent weeks. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York on Friday forecast that gross domestic product will rise 3.8% in the fourth quarter, up from a […]
I can’t get by the paywall, and don’t feel like using google to do so, but I’d bet a dollar there is nothing in there about Obama retarding growth and Trump undoing that commie bullshit.
I will say that, Unexpectedly!!!!!!!!!, growth will be higher. Under Bush it was always Unexpectedly!!!!!!! higher than forecasts and under Obama it was always Unexpectedly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lower.
Rule of thumb, everybody’s lying anymore, you just have to figure out who they hate to figure out which way they’re lying.
For instance, the other day I heard a news fool on the radio the other day say, “Trump went to China and said he was focusing on trade but made few trade deals.”
I thought, “Few huh? So what are you assholes ignoring?”
China and the United States have signed additional business agreements valued at $250bn during President Donald Trump’s visit to Beijing, though some were less than binding commercial contracts.
The agreements signed at a ceremony attended by Mr Trump and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, included sales of US-made chipsets, jet engines and auto parts.
It’s easy to figure out, you just have to assume they hate Trump and yet want to pretend they’re covering stories they’re covering up.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 41% of Likely Democratic Voters think Biden would make the best candidate against President Trump if he runs for reelection in 2020
2020 is going to be nearly as funny as 2008. What with the GOP trying to unseat a GOP POTUS popular with GOP voters and the Dems busy with their, “No! I”m more stupider!!!!!” primary.
We’ll have the hilarity of the media continue their lying and fakenewsing about what Trump says while hiding what Dem presidential candidates are saying, Biden and Warren say some epically stupid things after all. And of course all the people who hate Trump will have to pretend Joe Biden can chew gum and breathe at the same time.
Add in that Hillary looking for her ! and getting the cold shoulder will make it even fucking funnier. The best part? There was nobody in 2008 I thought should be POTUS, but Trump is far less bad than I thought he would be so I’m actually looking forward to the hilarity.
Sticking with our second favorite Weasels, I was a little confused about why they were upset about this.
Headline.
Linda Sarsour Set To Be On Anti-Semitism Panel
My first thought was, “Who else are they gonna get to lead a panel on how to anti-semitis?” But then I read this
A private university in New York City is hosting a panel on combating anti-Semitism
Huh, combating anti-semitism is whole different kettle of Jew Hate.
Definitional problems abound with our fine elitist betters.
While I’d say that it’s a little early to be talking about Hezbollah’s fall and I’m pretty sure ISIS did most of the (chopping off) legwork on that, this is spot on.
The press ignored the acknowledgement that Arabs and Jews are working together to battle Islamic terrorism. (some Islamic terrorism actually V)
Yup. Whodathunk that helping the enemies of the house of Saud get nukes would get them to play nice with Israel?
You know, except people who were paying attention to the fact that the Sunni-Shia war was heating up and Sunnis are more afraid of nuclear-armed Shia than they hate Jews.
As they say, when jihadi-funders know they are to be nuked in a year or two, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.
Former IRS executive Lois G. Lerner told a federal court last week that members of her family, including “young children,” face death threats and a real risk of physical harm if her explanation of the tea party targeting scandal becomes public.
Listen honey, we got Trump because we’re already pretty enraged. Ignoring that shit is how we get more Trump.
And if this shit keeps going? Well, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near an IRS bureacratic better. You know, unless I had my Fisher-Price tar and feathers kit handy.
The college’s advice to police comes during a student-led petition to ban New York police from campus, according to the New York Post.
Stop patrolling the campus altogether! Blue Lives Don’t Matter!!!!!!!!!1
They don’t want cops? See what happens when there are no police to keep away the people who like it when there are no cops in a Gun-Free Zone!!!!!!!, I mostly just want to see the “Cops come back!!!!!!!!!!!” protests.
That’ll be funny. The mass murders will suck, but I don’t go there. Anybody who sends their kids to any Elite College is an idiot. Stupidity should be painful.
Those cited for these violations fix the problems and pay the fines, a typical code enforcement story. The kicker comes a few weeks or months later when citizens get a bill in the mail for thousands of dollars from the law firm that prosecuted them. They are forcing citizens to pay for the private lawyers used to take them to court in the first place. So a fine for a couple of hundred dollars suddenly becomes a bill for $3,000 or $20,000 or even more.
In Coachella, a man was fined $900 for expanding his living room without getting a permit. He paid his fine. Then more than a year later he got a bill in the mail from Silver & Wright for $26,000. They told him that he had to pay the cost of prosecuting him, and if he didn’t, they could put a lien on his house and the city could sell it against his will. When he appealed the bill they charged him even more for the cost of defending against the appeal. The bill went from $26,000 to $31,000.
When private industry bribes pols to take over civic duties, they can get away with a lot of shit. See also, the fuckheads in VA selling roads (HOV lanes on 95 and 66) paid for by tax money to private companies so they can charge tolls. We saw a few years ago how they were fining people $thousands for the crime of their EZ Pass thing not working.
The worst part is that CA voters are going to go to neighboring states and vote for the same assholes who do shit like that. See also, New Hampshire filling up with Massholes.
Now I want a wall built between CA and the US as well. Let ’em go north, those fools in Oregon and Washington like that shit.
A study of a Lake Erie wetland suggests that scientists have vastly underestimated the number of places methane-producing microbes can survive — and, as a result, today’s global climate models may be misjudging the amount of methane being released into the atmosphere.
As with rain forests, where there’s lots of water, there’s lot of life. Not just plants but critters from microscopic to large, they all breathe. Also, in the rain forests there’s lots of death, decay is very carbon-emitting.
As for the bit about “climate models may be misjudging”, ummmmm, I asked the ice-free North Pole and Santa said, “No shit.” That’s the whole purpose of ‘climate models” If they didn’t lie, tglobal warmmongers have to admit that global worming is a religious scam.
Well, that’s my tube. I’m actually surprised I found that much shit without linking shit about sexual predators.
Yesterday, I was very darn tired. I got like 3 hours of sleep and then had a busy day, I tubed a little at school but mostly didn’t.
Speaking of which, a school story. There’s one girl in our CNC class, she’s 17, tall, thin blonde and pretty, very Russian looking. It’s sorta funny as it’s mostly a guy’s club so we keep saying shit and then realizing we shouldn’t have said that in front of her. One guy said she was too shy and retiring which leads us to:
I asked her how she graduated so early so she could be in this class, after doing a welding class at another place, was she home-schooled? In AP classes? What? She said she had been kicked out of a few schools until she finally finished HS on her own, she already has an associates in graphic design. As she said, when she sits still for too long she gets ideas, and then gets into trouble. You’d never know it, she’s so quiet and always averts her eyes.
The idiotic classes at the beginning were for the welding class, autobody repair, CNC and meat cutters, it was full of 30+ bikers/former druggies, a couple young guys, a couple marines, me and her. She probably felt like a ball of yarn at a cat festival.
A Phoenix-based companythat oversees about half of the private medical care for America’s veterans is looking to extend its contract even as documents reveal it overbilled the government by tens of millions of dollars.
Hey, when you’re spending all your money on scams and crooks, it’s hard to take care of those dam, needy vets who keep asking for money in the form of treatment!
And we all know those greedy vets aren’t going to bribe pols! Unlike the fine folks who are busy scamming tens of $millions!
Oh shit, I have to rethink my, “The people who are pushing the accusations of Moore are liars so I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt.” stance.
Moore was a Democrat at time of sexual misconduct allegations.
Dems treating women like shit is just another day at the orifice. Now that he’s a Republican, of course they’re going to revoke his, “Get out of rape free” card. It’s as axiomatic as former Republican “Worse than Hitler!!!!”s are going to become Elder Statesmen used to bash the current, Republican, “Worse Than Hitler!!!!!!” by the same people who called them Hitlers.
Speaking of which, yesterday we heard Mitch McConnell saying that Moore was a doody head who they didn’t want in the Senate, which leads us to
(fractal cuttin and pastin)
Mitch McConnell has already decided that he believes these women, without proof and has called for Moore to step aside and drop out of the race which has an election on December 12…
You have a corrupt Democrat Senator Robert Menendez on trial for bribery, conspiracy and other charges. The media basically ignores the story, Democrats refuse to answer if what should happen to Menendez when rarely questioned and Mitch McConnell is as silent as can be.
Of course, expecting McConnell to do shit about Menendez is just ignorant. Moore’s a Republican, Menendez is a Democrat. Good old Mitch wants to get some Dems elected so he can go back to being Senate Minority Leader so we’ll leave him alone about all the promises he made to get us riled up for the GOP wing of the We’re Better and Smarter Than You Party.
As they say, be careful what you wish for because you might get it and be proven to be an idiot for expecting our fine GOP betters to do what they promised.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me a thousand times shame on me for not paying fucking attention.
A famous Arab singer has been banned from performing in her native Egypt after advising a fan against drinking from the Nile River, leaders of the local musicians union said Wednesday.
As Weasel Zippers saya
Egypt lives in a state of denial.
Denial is just a river in Egypt!
I had a late lunch at a bar yesterday, Taco Tuesday! All you can eat tacos for $9! (no fucking jalapenos though. Barbarians!) As I ate ESPN was on and the crawl asked, “How should UCLA punish the students caught shoplifting in China(that Trump freed)?”
I thought, “By making them thank Trump.” So today we see
The three college basketball players that were released from detention in China thanked President Donald Trump Wednesday
Heh. That might be worse than making them stay in a shitty, Commie Chinese jail!
It does feel different now. Part of it is the Prog panic over Trump. You cannot engage in mass media without seeing someone shrieking about the latest Trump crisis. It’s not the shrieking that is unsettling, it is the ham-handedness of it. The NeverTrump loons like Bill Kristol and Jonah Goldberg are so transparent and phony, it makes most people wonder if we are ruled over by sociopaths. It’s not the constant state of panic in the media that is unnerving to be people. It is what the panic is revealing about our ruling class.
That’s just one aspect…
Read the whole thing. If you’re still drinking that cool, clear Nile water.
