Middle East Policy Working Out Well, Donnie?
Up next – Korea. What’s a spoiled brat to do? Make a mess, blame it on somebody else, then go make another one. Now it is far too late to salvage any of this. The hand-basket is halfway to hell.
“President Trump has engaged little with Iraqi leaders, compared with his predecessors, George W. Bush and Barack Obama. He did not meet with the Iraqi prime minister when he went to see U.S. troops in 2018 — a snub noticed by Iraqis. In November, Vice President Pence did the same.”
Go into their country, fuck it up, then ignore them. Nice.
Full Auto Smoking Gun
The hearings repeatedly demonstrated how the more people testified, the worse it looked for the Chump-in-Chief. Now comes a trove of “heavily redacted emails” whose content, even in blacked-out form, casts further damning evidence:
“Given the sensitive nature of the request, I appreciate your keeping that information closely held to those who need to know to execute the direction,” Duffey wrote.
The cover-up was in progress DURING the time this fraudulent, treasonous act of personal hubris and narcissism took place. They knew exactly what they were doing. They knew it was wrong and they proceeded anyway. That’s what criminals do.
Any Questions?
It took a few months, and another deceptive anti-pot media campaign, but the government finally managed to get to the bottom of the vape-lung scare:
“cannabis prohibition states had ten times the number of vape injuries per capita as states that offered licensed, tested, and legal cannabis vape products.”
If that doesn’t make the case for legalization, I don’t know what does. I do know the corporate and private concerns supporting prohibition are still very active in the media. Literally every evening news scare story I saw led with reference to THC for months. The solution (black market illegal additives – truth) was minimally broadcast over a couple of days. What a travesty.
Just look at Kentucky and the Moscow Bitch for some interesting dots to connect in the vape lung disease crises. Certain people just seem to have impenetrable craniums.
Evangelical Flip-Flop
Devout followers of certain Christianity flavors were writing books about the Fuckwit-in-Chief a few years ago. Now it seems they have reconsidered. Can’t say they weren’t warned. Will they follow through if the current POTUS dodges impeachment? Re-forming religious dogma to fit contemporary social and legal environments has worked before.
“And Trump appeals to these evangelicals because of his focus on declension, decline and destruction, which fits into evangelical beliefs about the end times.”
They’ll get their end times, alright. Just not like they expected.
Facebook Again
“Though Facebook exempts politicians’ ads from fact-checking, the company said politicians would not be allowed to run ads or post content that conflicts with its census policies.”
Apparently Facebook’s stock in trade is dishonesty and lies. Some (politicians) are OK with that, other topics (census) are not. Has corporate America become the truth arbiter in this country? Of course. It just didn’t become widely apparent until the Internet and mass media exposed the cocksucker’s scheme: money- grubbing bastards parlaying personal information to grab their paydays by any means necessary – not to mention the live-stream, electioneering, hate, racist, privacy and other endearing issues Fuckbook’s recently raised in our collective consciousness.
The Gentleman from Georgia
Listening to the partisan pleas for and against impeachment today was predictably repetitive and boring. But a few of the more deranged Republicans took the opportunity to once again demonstrate just exactly how closed their minds really are. Collins in particular, has a uniquely fervent style of embarrassing himself while speaking loudly and saying nothing. We even got a little treat to some dramatic antics, finger-pointing around the room accusing those gathered of egregious wrongdoing for even entertaining the thought of impeachment.
What a moron. This is the type of fascist demagoguery that gave rise to the 3rd Reich. Seriously.
“Why do we keep calling this a solemn occasion, when you’ve been wanting to do this ever since [Trump] was elected?”
Because some people catch on quicker than others. You know one of the big differences between smart people and dumb people? It’s not that smart people don’t make mistakes. They just don’t keep making the same mistakes over and over again.
Boot-Lickin' Barr
I’ve been using the pejorative “toady” moniker WRT numerous political figures these days, and Billy here, fits the role just perfectly in look and deed.
Every time I think to myself “you just can’t make this shyt up…” it turns out, YES you can. And people even seem to start believing it, repeated often enough with the requisite visual aids. I’ve been rockin’ the chair to the point of almost being clear off it quite a bit myself lately. I must need stronger drugs.
Fuckwit Wrote a Letter
Sounds about right, for this juncture. Looks like the handlers were on coffee break when this one slipped out – peppered with insults, lies, false claims and generally dubious nonsense – just like the cluster-fuck of an administration he’s purveyed on the country for the past three years. This Russian cuck must have plenty of time on his hands as the isolation and marginalization builds. Genning up this six-page diatribe about how bad he feels heralds the prison manifesto brewing.
The emperor wears no (new) clothes. For real, if you are a GOP politician.
Moscow Bitch
Last name McConnell, aka “Moscow Mitch.” That’s not a meme below. People in Kentucky were worried about the current senate majority leader’s business ties to Russia a long time ago. Now he’s Trump’s bitch, so does that all roll up under the same gang of con artists now, or what?
Rudi's back from Ukraine!
…in support of the Republican Impeachment defense, resting solely on a new GOP political concept for re-defining reality. So Rudi Giuliani returned to the U.S. to advise his biggest client last weekend.
“He’s a great person who loves our country, and he does this out of love, believe me. He does it out of love,” (said our fuckwit POTUS) Riiiiiiiight. – out of love for keeping his own sorry ass out of jail. That little project is getting increasingly difficult, as the hub player in International Criminal Conspiracy USA 2019.
Stay consistent when the cover story gets blown. Just keep doing what you’re doing, pretending it’s all good. Fucking morons.
Monkey See…
…Monkey Do. That summarizes the Republican impeachment defense strategy. One after another, they take their turns spouting the same nonsensical talking points, embarrassing the entire country for all the world to see. Congratulations Putin – you won this round.
Glad to see I’m not alone in my opinion of this shitshow:
“If there’s anything I learned from watching all those hours of House Judiciary Committee impeachment hearings, it’s not that Matt Gaetz is a shameless slime bucket or that any time Jim Jordan speaks, we gain a closer understanding of all that’s wrong with America or that Texas Republican Louie Gohmert is, well, irredeemably Louie Gohmert (who beats out, by some distance, the fact that Ken Buck is, well, forever and always Ken Buck).”
“Stalin, as you know, was infamous for show trials, in which the defendant’s guilt was pre-ordained. But I think there’s a different point to be made here: What do you call it when the fix is in for the guilty party to walk free?”
I call it the beginning of the end for the Republican Party.
Wake Up, PA!
I see Mike Dense made a visit to my old stomping grounds yesterday. I hope the folks back home have seen enough Russian propaganda for one election cycle. It would behoove them to look past the memes and rhetoric. The current political climate outlook is frigid with sub-zero alt-right low-pressure systems building in the minds of unstable voters.
Most sentient people understand the principle of politicians being basically professional liars. This is nothing new. It’s just the nature of the business – nothing personal. It could even be a GOOD thing – as long as they are trading lies about their official business. There comes a point where the line gets drawn. These bastards get in my wheelhouse when they start playing illegal, treasonous games with the American People’s hard-earned money.
Buck the Russian Cuck
“Buck also echoed debunked claims that Ukraine officials interfered in the 2016 election.” Later in the week, Mr. Butt-Fuck opined about much irrelevant Mueller and Biden nonsense. The ADHD drugs aren’t working. This toady REALLY needs to go.
Yep, if it looks like a cuck….
Judiciary Phase in the Can
Here’s the 2nd drop of my Personal POTUS Impeachment Spin. Ranting about government corruption seems futile. But being laid up with a back injury gives me plenty of time on my hands. I wonder what the crazy constituent threshold for Gardner and Buck’s staff is these days:
“So Nunes is in on it, too? Whodathunkit. The useful idiots fucked this one up royally. That fat-ass Pompeo, the whole cabinet and what looks to me like the entire Party is now rotten to the core. Why are you fighting about your dirty election nonsense from the past instead of fixing the problem it created in the present? Nobody cares. Pull your heads out and do the right thing for a change.”
“The Republican Party supporting the Chump-in-Chief looks less like a political party, and more like a big turd circling the bottom of the biggest political shitter I could possibly imagine. Nice job.”
“Let me know if you’d like to be featured in one of my blog posts:
http://stuff.is-a-geek.net/wordpress/2019/11/23/intel-portion-complete/
I’m brewing stories about Trump and his impeachment right now. You like stories, right? How much truth would you like to see in yours? What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Starting to feel a little smear campaign of my own coming on…”
“Anyone still believe this Impeachment is just a Senate Popularity Contest? The scope, depth and brazen MO of this scheme to defraud the American and Ukrainian people (among MANY other things!) makes it the most reprehensible and unforgivable act(s) committed by this government since the Indian War Era. I’m guessing that part is probably just the tip of the corrupt GOP iceberg – bobbing about in a sea of embarrassment, disrespect and asininity, melting fast. Look up that last one, if necessary. It’s the last part of the word “jackass.” That’s what your gang looks like now – a herd of jackasses. Good luck going down with that.”
“Is there anything left the current POTUS has “not” screwed up yet? Do you have information unavailable to the public on that topic? He just sent the entire Armed Forces into retrograde for who knows how long, and I doubt the Seals EVER recover. Wasn’t that the long pole in the Russian Social Media Electioneering Tent from the start?”
“The impeachment inquiry isn’t just about Trump’s future. It’s about what Americans should expect from their president. Failing to accept this opportunity to support our Constitution and stand for what is right embarks the entire country onto a very slippery slope.”
“Can’t wait to read Schiff’s intel report. Are you going to read it? We already know ignoring the facts to pursue political interests is more important than serving the country to many in the GOP these days. Can’t wait to see which side of political subterfuge fence you fall on.”
“Funny thing about history: Despite revisionist attempts to re-write it, the truth eventually comes out. What side of history will you fall on when people look back at the disaster that is this Trump administration?”
“Funny watching your boy Collins getting frantic at the Judiciary hearing right off the bat. Are you even slightly embarrassed by the clearly deceitful, dishonest attitudes and opinions of your colleagues on the right? This idiot used his time saying nothing. Must have attended the JJ School of Parliamentary Nonsense. The left states facts, the right waffles and speculates. You call that a defense? WTF are you defending?”
“Turley re-defines bribery for ‘our time’ by describing Founder discussions about guess what? Things That Did Not Happen. Allegories like “dogs that hunt” or not, depending on the century their lives transpired, blatantly pander to the base’s comprehension level. “Boundless interpretation” portends simple Appeal to Common Belief, and Ambiguity fallacies in Turley’s lexicon. There must be some doubt somewhere, right? Astoundingly weak. But consistent. They just expect people to be stupid enough to buy it. Not even a good try. Lotsa rhetoric, no facts. Next.”
“Ms. Roby achieved the dubious distinction of sternly contradicting herself enough times within a period of less than 2 minutes to hold the world’s record on that foot chewing. Harping on an on about “facts” with the right yet to produce a single one. The Saturday Night Live writers must be roiling in the biggest marathon cast party since the Belushi days.”
“Is it any wonder Turley’s history-laden narrative leads directly to the same refuted argument he failed to defend a judge removal with before? What was that about doom and repeating history not learned? Is there a Trump-friendly witness that has not been either unhelpful or flatly discredited yet? Just one?”
“Specifically to Buck, the fuck-ass from CO:
Perhaps you need a little coaching on your understanding of the term “Impeachable Offense.” You spent your time going over irrelevant history. At least you followed the party line. You are a disgrace to your office. Say goodbye to my vote and anyone I can influence, cocksucker.”
“Mr. Gardner got a link to Buck’s feature story of the day, as a professional courtesy:
http://stuff.is-a-geek.net/wordpress/2019/12/05/fuck-ken-buck/”
“Mr. Gaetz’s finger-pointing tirade about the “will of the people” was less inspiring than the criminal acts of the fuckwit POTUS that triggered it. Why does every variation of the same argument presented by the right delve into the past in total disregard of the present and future? As ever, this toady proceeds repeatedly proclaiming the term “fact” in a factless tirade against a witness, bloviating about nonsense having no connection to their testimony whatsoever. Your nationally televised soapbox for real-life lemmings was real hoot.”
“Republican politicians now fully embrace obvious Russian propaganda, repeating it for the media. They are in fact, Russian assets, wittingly or otherwise. Based on their performance at hearings and press conferences, “otherwise” seems plausible. You have to wonder if they are aware of treason being a capital offense at the Federal level. Some of these imbeciles need a serious reality check.”
“Here’s a great example of conservative impeachment evidentiary criteria: Foxnews reports “..this only proves that Nunes’ phone was connected to Parnas. We still have no evidence that Nunes spoke with Parnas.” Repubs keep repeating “sham, hoax, witchhunt, etc.” Your 10lb bag-o-shit called a defense is busting at the seams and you keep over-stuffing it with 20lbs of idiocy. Consider adding honesty back into your little bag of tricks, before it’s too late.”
“Accept that the 2016 election smokescreen was blown away by the truth before you morons even started parroting it to the media like the Russkie assets you certainly are. If you’re not just giving him plenty of rope to hang himself, you’ll be hanging your own selves over the biggest political bloodbath this country has ever seen.”
“Mr. Collins, ranking judiciary member, needs a lesson on interpersonal communications. He doesn’t understand that raising his voice and screaming at people is not well received in most civilized gatherings. Nor is the ongoing attempt to deflect the issue to the Bidens, in this case. Can somebody please remind the imbecile this inquiry is about Trump – not the Bidens, 2016 or any other GOP fantasy straw they are grabbing at?”
“Who went after the phone records? Hell, I’d have done it myself, under the circumstances. Can I volunteer to be blamed for that? In the most demanding, demeaning voice possible, Collins embarrasses himself bigly. First it was the whistle-blower. Now the phone calls. Who is responsible for exposing all this damning evidence! We want names! Then Castor, the primary GOP law-slinger, goes into some potential “leak” issue. Thank gawd for leaks.”
“POTUS is “skeptical” about foreign aid? Ya think? Apparently he is also skeptical about his role as Cunt-in-Chief as well. Appropriated money is disbursed on schedule, regardless of anybody’s skepticism. That’s why they spend countless hours debating it in Congress. It’s not Trump’s money, and this country does not belong to him. It belongs to me more than him. I spent 20 years working for and in some cases risking my life for this country. The Secret Service wasn’t following me around in Bosnia. I’m skeptical about you now, FWIW.”
“Castor’s long pause at mention of the “W” word in reference to his own whistle-blowers, was telling. IMMEDIATELY upon uttering the word, a little pinprick in the back of his brain stuck. Priceless. This is all just for show, right – entertainment for laid-up people like me with nothing better to do?”
“The pretzel sentence?” Blondie with the glasses ain’t doin’ it for me. But my libido’s been a little suppressed lately. The exchange did look well-rehearsed. A leading question, dutifully followed at great length saying nothing factual. More shades of things widely regarded as not having taken place, and Sondland goes under the bus. One of the central figures on the home team, hand-picked and paid in full up front, is a “bad” guy, for various oleaginous reasons. No shyt? Birds of a feather…”
“Sensenbrenner got his knickers in a twist because investigators look at phone records. ‘Oh the surveillance state, the privacy concerns…’ he wailed. What he’s really upset about is these idiots aren’t smart enough to even realize they are making tracks, much less cover them. Giuliani is like a GoogleMap™ hub location on the road to international criminal conspiracy summit USA.”
“Did Gohmert just crawl out from under a rock somewhere? Sorry, that’s all I got on him. You either find this dumpster fire entertaining or endlessly boring. Pull up the videos on YouTube yourself and see what you idiots look like. I’m really at a loss for words on some of the shyt going on there. You won’t hear that out of me very often. JJ just sounds annoying now. Say it over and over enough and it sticks?” That’s the strategy?”
“Yeah, that GOP strategy was on display – literally. Visual aids – with Schiff on a milk carton? How come you didn’t have Nancy pictured with a big X across her face captioned “No More Hate!” The one thing you assholes have accomplished through these hearings so far is set a new standard for bald-faced lying. I bet I can come up with trivial insults couched in lies faster than the Russians. Wanna hire me as your new PR consultant? I come cheaper, with more honesty and fewer legal gotchas.”
“The Republican party is clearly colluding to deny the facts, leveraging the 50/50 partisan split to paint a deceptive veneer of legitimacy on treason. How long do you think you can keep the meme-only portion of the electorate fooled? They will be the ones coming with torches and pitchforks after the charade completely falls apart. The fragile fucking limp-dicks that got us into this mess need to grow a pair. Fix it now, or deal with it come election time when your ass gets voted OUT.”
The "Meme-Only" Electorate
This is what it’s come to. One of social media’s biggest applications is now among other things, a propaganda machine. Anyone with an Internet connection can take a picture or video, post it online and have the message say whatever they want. Hello Trump, goodbye Constitution, and off we go to hell in a hand-basket. If only large swaths of the electorate were smart enough to see it.
