The T-Rump can’t help himself, one truly-vile, nasty-ass piece of work: Schiff responds — via Reuters this morning: Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” if he took the Republican president’s social media post as a threat, Schiff said, “I think it’s intended to be.” As lead impeachment manager, Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee,…
Playing out in America’s TV land today is a clear case of a way-weird George Orwell/Terry Gilliam movie, developing a couple of plot-lines running concurrently — one a perspective in concise, factual-legal summations of the constitutional/legal abuse of power, and obstructed of justice found in the actions of the T-Trump; the second a shit-show of…
(Illustration found here). Just when shit is getting shittier with the T-Rump’s impeachment trial and all, and rolling all the shit into up clump of asshole ugly, now the timer’s reset — from NPR this evening: Two years after moving the metaphorical minute hand of its Doomsday Clock to within two minutes of midnight —…
(Illustration, Jim Lehrer, found here). The awesome PBS journalist Jim Lehrer died today, age 85. He was the real voice of top-notch integrity of the Fourth Estate, an entire generation’s worth of reporting in the white-light of truth and reality. I started my journalism career in the mid-1970s, about the same time Lehrer teamed-up with…
Here we go again today, round three in the shiftiest courtroom on earth, the US Senate impeachment trial of the T-Rump, the lowest-form president in the history of the American experiment. Moscow Mitch and the rest of the head-banging T-Rump toadies are replacing reality with drama-queen theatrics. Lying for Republicans is as natural as breathing,…
Another warning the T-Rump is unfit to be president — he doesn’t have any empathy for anyone for anything, even US military: Via The Week this morning: Speaking to reporters at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Trump was asked why he has repeatedly said no Americans were hurt in the strikes despite reports…
Fortunately — if such a horrifying situation with the T-Rump could have anything at all to do with anything auspicious — the entire cabal of liars, cheats, dip-shits making-up the T-Rump administration is that they’re all total nincompoops, speaking the private parts out loud, being openly criminally crooked. (h/t Mark Sumner at Daily Kos): Some…
Here we go, the opening round of the T-Rump’s Kangaroo Court — oops, sorry, Senate trial on impeachment — and the shit has already hit the fan. Closed tighter than a clam, the Senate is listening to itself this afternoon as the world isn’t watching (h/t Susie): Just in the nick, there’s been a decent…
Here it is on Monday, the day before the start of a most-rare event in American history and the ratfucking bullshit from Republicans continues with unfaltering zest, even outside constitutional reality. Right now I’m watching Hallie Jackson on MSNBC shred the thin skin of one of the T-Rump’s ‘lawyers‘ Alan Dershowitz as he attempts to…
In the era of strange: Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor These are the days it never rains but it pours And here it comes again: Plus, I hope this ain’t happening — one of my all-time favorites, though, haven’t heard it in awhile: Onward into the weird of 20/20… (Illustration: Salvador Dali’s…
