It's good to be a rich, white male in the American judicial system.
As noted here previously, Trump is beating America. Bigly.
A five-judge panel of appellate court judges gives Trump an extra 10 days (beyond the 30 days Letitia James had already, very magnanimously given the lifelong criminal) to come up with much less bond money required to file his appeal in the New York civil fraud case.
Like I said, Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!! Well, it was only a thought at first, but now I'm saying it Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!
This has been your Paying Attention™ Thought For The Day.
Five disgraceful men and
one radical cult member woman poised to fuck women the wrong way
While
much of the nation fidgets on pins and needles wondering if the Six Sick
Shitheads – three of whom were appointed by the ostensible defendant and should
therefore, in deference to the Constitution, democracy and morality, recuse
themselves – will decide that Donald Trump shall be granted absolute immunity
for no other reason than having been (the absolute worst) president (in
American history).
While
these phony justices (most of whom lied under oath during their confirmation
hearings) pretend to mull over what should be one of the most obvious decisions
in the history of the Court, they are wasting no time addressing another issue
that should be none of their fucking business – the legality of the
morning-after pill, which is safe, effective and will spare millions of women
from having to bear children they do not wish to bear. Maybe they are too young,
maybe they have been raped, maybe they just don’t want to be pregnant. And maybe
it’s nobody’s business but theirs.
To
recap, the Court has no time to protect our democracy, but are in a hurry to
ruin the lives of women more than they already have. If only the Constitution had been written on a fetus, maybe they would protect and defend it.
Even if Putin can’t
sneak $467 million past Trump’s court-appointed financial overseer to help Der
Furor put up the bond for his doomed-to-fail appeal in the
Getting-His-Fat-Ass-Handed-To-Him-By-Letitia-James New York civil fraud case,
you know who Dumb Donald really wants his ruining mate to be.
Surely Donald wants
his favorite person in the whole world – the man who is stronger and more
powerful than all the rest, who runs his country with an iron fist (one much
bigger than Trump’s baby hands), and who still has possession of the infamous “pee-pee
tape” – none other than Russia, Russia, Russia’s Vladimir Putin, rumored to be
the richest man in the world. This assumes of course that Trump even has time
to campaign in between court appearances, and not having enough money to hold his
Bund rallies.
Poor asshole.
Trump will continue
to run despite being indicted on 88 counts (recently marked down from 91) in numerous jurisdictions because he
needs to be president to avoid being a number – and I don’t mean as a secret
agent man. And unfortunately, odds are he will live to see tomorrow.
Johnny Rivers – Secret Agent Man
And since his
followers live in a world of “alternative facts,” Trump is able to wear his
indictments as a crown of thorns. He will continue to run despite having to run
(figuratively speaking) from courtroom to rally to courtroom to rally (assuming
he can afford to hold any).
Trump shows up in
court when there is no need for him to be there and blames the court for
wasting his precious time. The only possible scenario – short of his untimely
passing – (untimely in that it is long past time; had he passed away in 2015 it
would have made things so much easier) that has even a chance of stopping Trump
from running in 2024 is him ending up in solitary confinement - which after
all, might be the only way for him to remain safe in prison. (Now that's about
the happiest thought I've had in some time).
Once the Supreme
Court finds that Trump has absolute immunity, he will not feel constrained by
anything, so do not be surprised when he announces Putin as his running mate.
You can expect to
hear the following statement from Trump shortly after the Court renders its entirely
unconstitutional, anti-democratic decision.
“Just like I said I
would have been able to run my business and be president at the same time, but
was not allowed to because of some very stupid rules that I never should have
followed – and frankly, I did not follow, because I know better – I have no doubt
that the very strong and very powerful leader of the great nation of Russia
will be able to continue his very excellent leadership there while serving as
my vice president here. You will all be very proud of having such a great
leader helping to tell me what to do. Believe me.”
Trump,
who last year testified during a deposition that he easily had $450 million in
cash, and that it was increasing by the minute, suddenly can't scratch up enough
to cover the $450-plus million he will owe the state of New York after he loses
his baseless appeal after being used to mop the floor by NY Attorney General Letitia
James for bank fraud, tax fraud, etc. Apparently, Trump’s fake massive fortune
is mostly monopoly money, which it turns out is not legal tender.
Not including more than $1000K/day interest and
massive legal fees
For
some odd reason no one wants to front him the money. Thirty bond companies have
already turned down the self-described "king of debt." The man who
bankrupted six casinos – you know the places where people flock for the express
purpose of throwing leaving their money there. The man most of whose businesses
either went bust or ended up being disbanded by lawsuits. I wonder why I don't
wonder why no one wants to give or loan him large sums of money.
Hey, at least he still
has his good looks
Don't
be surprised though when one of the richest men in the world, who has been
Trump's benefactor and idol, comes to the rescue and asks for nothing in
return...I mean everything in return. That would be good old Vladimir Putin. Or maybe Jared Kushner’s buddy Mohammed bin Bonesaw
Al Saud. Or will someone else step up to buy the number-two spot on Trump's ticket?
Oh,
and did I mention that Trump’s loyal suckers are running out of money to send
their billionaire savior? Or that many Ratpublican mega-donors are jumping ship
and helping Joe Biden raise money?
So
it looks like Deadbeat Donald will have to find new sources of funding.
Today's
question is:
Did
Trump mention he’s really rich?

For The Day.

Why I Worry
And Can’t Be Happy by I. Mangrey
There’s the
perpetual ineptitude and lack of a sense of urgency displayed Merrick Garland’s
Justice Department. The apparent unseriousness of the court system, especially
judges like Trump-appointed (after he lost his re-election bid and stole at
least 13,097 documents*) flagrantly pro-Trump Aileen Cannon who is doing
everything in her grossly undeserved power as the judge in the Mor-on-Lago stolen
documents case to protect her benefactor, aka The Fucking Defendant. She is working
feverishly if absurdly to keep Trump not only out of jail, but out of her
courtroom and back in the White House.
Cannon is likely
getting more desperate now that the man referred to in Jack Smith’s classified
documents indictment as “Trump Employee 5” has gone public. Long-time
Mor-on-Lago employee Brian Butler, who worked for Trump for 20 years, is all
over the TV describing how he (unknowingly) and others (knowingly or otherwise)
loaded boxes Butler later was able to identify as boxes of classified documents
onto Trump’s private jet to hide them from authorities just two months before
the FBI ended up having to raid Mor-on-Lago because Trump refused to cooperate with
the National Archives who requested Trump return stolen documents, many of
which were classified.
Then there’s the idiotic Fani Willis who
literally ran on not sleeping with co-workers and then slept with her co-worker
who she also put in charge of Trump’s Fulton County, Georgia election
interference case, which should have been a slam dunk and now risks fouling out before the game even starts. Add
to this the monumental incompetence of the Southern District of New York
dumping thousands of documents at the last minute, delaying yet another
criminal case against Donny Fuckface. All of this is making it increasingly
difficult to even put on a happy face, even just for show.
Almost everyone in
Trump’s orbit – and I mean that literally (think large bodies
and gravity) – is either in prison, soon to be in
prison or got out of jail free thanks to a Trump pardon. Yet Trump itself
continues to waddle among us, free to threaten, incite and figuratively (for
now) torture.
Sorry
to say, but these days, when I think about how all of Trump’s criminal trials
are going to turn out, especially before Election Day, this is the picture that
haunts my every waking moment:
Unfortunately, that does not appear to be thin ice beneath him

*Based on recent revelations by Brian Butler, there
are almost certainly more stolen documents hidden in at least one other Trump
residence. When is the fucking Justice Department going to issue more search
warrants for every single Trump property and Trump’s ex-wife Ivana’s coffin
which he oddly has stored at his golf resort in Bedminster, NY. What’s in that
coffin? Is Ivana even in there?
This has been your Paying Attention™ Thought
For The Day.
We think so you don’t have to.
It appears that Mike
Pence no longer wishes to hang with his former fake best
bud Trump. In a March 15th interview on Fux News, Trump’s former running mate, VP, and intended murder
victim Mike Pence told viewers “It should come as no surprise that I will not
be endorsing Donald Trump this year.” Pence added, “I
cannot in good conscience endorse Donald Trump in this campaign.”
I have a question. Where
the fuck was uber-Christian Pence’s “good conscience” in 2016 when he decided it was okay to
not only endorse, but stand beside and kiss the ass of the racist, pussy-grabbing, rapey conman who
had no interest in God or country?
Don & Mike in happier times
Pence is also
suddenly voicing his displeasure with Trump referring to the now-jailed mob who
had set out at Trump’s behest to kill Pence not as criminals, but as
“hostages.” Trump has made a cottage industry of lionizing these scum at every
Bund rally on the campaign trail. Fortunately, practically every business Trump
has put his name to has crashed, burned and/or filed for bankruptcy.
Mike Pence: too
little, too limp, too late. Please fuck off. And go put on some clean undies.
“But
at least there will still be a democracy, the Constitution and a country.
And if you do get elected, it will be all bloodbath and no country.
Also, what the fuck isn’t wrong with you dude?”
Ed Venture, March 17, 2024
Everyone
knows that Donald Trump loves him some dictators. Actually, he loves him all
dictators. And assholes of any station. We know this because he just can’t shut
the fuck up about it. He waxes psychotic about shitheads like Bolsonaro, Un, Putin, Xi –
anyone who need not give a shit what their population thinks, wants or needs.
Anyone who oversees the real stolen elections. Did I say ‘elections’? Just
kidding.
Trump
recently hosted asshole autocrat Viktor Orbán of Hungary (not Turkey as Trump
stated a while back) at his roach-resort at Mor-on-Lago. Trump has described Orbán
as “fantastic;” Trump might have meant
'fascist,' though to him these words are synonymous.
At
this very moment, Trump’s hand-picked family member now controls the purse
strings at the Fascist/Trump Party’s national campaign committee. Trump chose
his highly-unqualified, no-nothing daughter in-law, Lara. Lara is married to Trump’s
non-Donald-named son. The son who Trump left out while reading the names of his
family members from a note card at one of his recent Bund rallies. Maybe this
was Trump’s way of making what’s-his-name feel a little better.
Turns
out Trump is not limited to drooling over modern-day despots. Yet more evidence
has emerged, via Gen. John Kellywho
served as White House chief of staff from 2017 to 2019. According to Kelly
Deranged Don told him, “Well, but Hitler did some good things.” We report – you
tear your hair out.
Trump,
who has repeatedly stated that he wants to be dictator, wanted then-Secretary
of Defense Mark Esper to bring in troops to shoot American citizens on the
streets of America. When demonstrators were filling the streets around the
White House following the murder of George Floyd, Der Furor asked Esper, “Can't
you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?”
As if
the quote – and it is a quote – at the top of today’s post wasn’t psychotic and
chilling enough, Hair Trump added this beaut, “If this election isn’t won, I’m
not sure that you’ll ever have another election in this country. Does that make
sense? I don’t think you’ll ever have another election in this country if we
don’t win this election. I don’t think you’re gonna have another election, or
certainly not an election that’s meaningful.” By which, besides being the usual
IMAX-level projection, Damaged Don means an
election that he wins. Because after all, in Trump’s late-stage-syphilitic
mind, the only fair election, is an election that he wins.
Trump will not take his massive, humiliating defeat in November lying down, though standing up is not exactly his forte. Of course, if he wins, he will not take that very well either. And America will probably never get up.
Naturally,
when Trump uses the word “bloodbath” he means it literally.
10cc – I Wanna Rule the World
That’s enough fun for one day.
This has been your Paying Attention™ Fun Fact
For The Day.
With all his legal fees and penalties piling up faster than
the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, and needing anyone, anywhere to cover his
expenses (since he is not as “really rich” as he believes and/or lies he is)
one would be remiss in not wondering who will be the new owners of demented,
deranged, disgraced, twice-impeached, four-time-indicted (so far), failed
insurrection leader and Fifth-Amendment-dependent ex-one-term-president Donald
Trump. Considering most of the properties that have his name plastered on them
– most of which Trump does not own – are frantically removing the Trump stain
from their facades, what’s next? Might some enterprising scumbag buy the name
outright? Perhaps Donald will soon be unable to use his own surname.
Dumb Donald may soon need a whole lot more financial aid
since he continues to defame E. Jean Carroll on a regular basis. There is a
much-greater-than-zero chance that Carroll and her attorneys are at this very
moment putting their ducks in a row for the purpose of bringing yet another
defamation suit against Rapey McFuckface. And since the first one ended in a $5
million award to Carroll and the second ballooned to $83.3 million, one must
assume that the next award will have to be substantially larger than those
preceding it in yet another (likely-to-fail) attempt to stop Der Furor from
repeating his offense over and over and over again.
The Dave Clark Five - Over And
Over
So who are the rubes, besides Trump’s pitiable (not really)
cult members – who between them probably could not cover just the E. Jean
Carroll penalties (so far) let alone the massive $450-million-and-counting
coming due to the state of New York – are going to cough up the big bucks
(which they must know they are unlikely to ever see again)? They are probably
not rubes so much as gamblers hoping to own a president. So who? Elon Musk,
Vladimir Putin, Viktor Orbán? Or maybe George Soros.
Everyone
knows about Texas trying to kill anyone who crosses into their hell-hole from
south of the border. They are not shy about their racism. But that might not be
their worst claim to shame.
A
recently completed study found that there have been at least 64,000 women and
girls became pregnant as a result of rape in states with abortion bans. As you
might expect, that number is probably low due to rampant under-reporting of
rape. Texass, one assumes proudly, topped the list with 45% of that “total” – 26,000
rape-related pregnancies in this shithole state alone since they banned
abortions there in September 2021.
That’s more (probably much more) than 26,000
rape-related pregnancies in one state in just over two fucking years for those
of you in the dumbass state that keeps electing the most despised man in
American politics – and not without too many good reasons to count – Raphael
(the actual first name he’s ashamed of) Ted Cruz. Cruz’s father, according to
Donald Trump, assassinated JFK, and Cruz himself aided and abetted the same
Donald Trump in trying to assassinate our democracy.
But
don’t worry, because piece-of-shit Texass governor Greg Abbott said he is
planning to stop rape in his disgraceful state. Yeah, stop the raping, what a
great idea. Wonder why no one ever thought of that before. Another super
genius. Too bad about all the brain damage.
He’ll
probably get around to preventing all the raping when he’s not busy kidnapping
and shipping off to other states, or sanctioning the murder of desperate
immigrants trying to enter the United States – land of the free and home of the
slave.
Speaking
of stopping rapists…You can tell a lot about a
person by company he creeps
Greg Abbott glad-hands

Just
so we’re on the same page, FUCK TEXAS.

out…
I
mean, Peace Out.
