Broken News - Bye, Felicia

Bye, Bye Turdie

February 29, 2024

Anti-Democratic (understandable) and anti-democratic (unforgiveable) Senate saboteur “Moscow” Mitch McConnell, killer of decent legislation, stealer of Supreme Court seats, hypocritical enabler of the objectively worst president in American history – unfortunately, I’m not looking at you any more George WTF Bush – Donald Jism Trump, and all-around piece-of-shit-on-two-legs, has announced his long-overdue departure from his position as super-fucked-up leader of Ratpublicans in the Senate. Don’t let the floor hit you on the way out. Surely the Trump/Fascist Party will not replace McConnell with another reactionary, old, white, power-mad weasel. We should all be able to breathe a little sleazier now.

Good-bye, my damage is done here.

In Other News Of Turds

The Extreme Court has decided to go all in for the guy who appointed three of them. The Court (well not all of them one assumes) has decided to put their bloodmoney stained thumbs on the scales of justice in order to help Trump delay all of his court appearances – in particular, the not-so-mysterious case of the January 6th Insurrection and Trump’s phantasmagorical insistence that a president (i.e., only Trump) has absolute immunity-for-life  so that he can continue to bamboozle his cult.

They are clearly throwing their lot in with Team Russia and the Russian wing of the Trump/Fascist Party by entertaining Trump’s frivolous and stunningly anti-democratic claim of presidential immunity. Regardless of how horrific their decision might be, this maneuver – wholly unnecessary and frivolous in its own right – has already ensured that Trump will not face any music from the justice system. Such as it is.

Do You Want Lies With That?

Autocracy is on the menu folks. The only chance we have to at least delay a new American fascism, is to crush Trump and his fellow travelers on November 5, 2024. And remember, just winning the popular vote by three million or eight million or forty million votes is not enough in our so-called democracy. The victory must not only be achieved in the anti-democratic Electoral College – a college with laxer admission standards than obedience schools for dogs – but might very well also need to get past a Congress that decides that Congress, and not the American electorate, or even the bullshit Electoral College, but a Congress whose Speaker (handpicked by Trump and Putin) might refuse to let anyone but the House of “Representatives” (who are in fact anything but representative of the electorate thanks to gerrymandering on steroids) pick the next president-who-would-be-king. We already had one Ratpublican appointed by the Supreme Court thanks to the egregious Bush v. Gore disgrace. Now, the Pro-Putin Party wants a turn.

Whatever you do, avoid reading this mind-blowing, heart-stopping, soul-punching article by Thom Hartmann: The New "Over the Top" Secret Plan on How Fascists Could Win in 2024

I need a nap. And possibly a lobotomy.

I might be watching too much news.

Naturally, supreme scofflaw and disgraceful partisan Clarence Thomas, whose Qanon-encrusted wife was much more than a cog in Trump’s insurrection, and who should but most assuredly will not recuse himself, will have his billionaire/fascist/radical-Christian nationalist-funded thumb on the now Trumpian gold-plated scale.
