In the frame of the nowadays, America is being framed with deceit by Republicans’ two-faced, victim-martyr stance on reality, not only in the Jan. 6 insurrection/riot, but through T-Rump’s Big Lie — Amanda Marcotte at Salon last week rightfully concluded: And that’s just the GOP reaction to the riot itself. When it comes to the…
Yesterday, Kevin McCarthy one more time exhibited why he’s such a doofus-douchebag (h/t tweet Susie): McCarthy and Republicans have dug themselves into a deep well of lies and bullshit with the only action for a shitload of questions is a hasty exit, stage right — viaYahoo News yesterday: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy refused to…
Big news this morning on the legal side of the T-Rump world as it was announced New York prosecutors are not only pursuing a criminal angle, but also now going after the orange turd’s CFO of all the T-Tump bullshit business dealings, inide and out — I have my doubts T-Rump will ever see the…
Now we know how Republicans can be such shameless, flip-flopping, lying assholes (h/t tweet C&J): One of the most-ridiculous instances in current American life is how Republicans can, without an ounce of discomfiture or remorse, fling reality out the window and dare anyone to question their lying in the face of any obvious observations of…

Beyond the Liz Cheney vs The Big Lie clusterf*ck yesterday, there was another GQP-induced fiction-drama played-out at the House Oversight and Reform hearing on the Jan.6 insurrection/riot at the US Capitol building — Republicans lied like laughing assholes, painting the event as nothing more than a walk in the park, apparently exhorting Americans to forget…
(Illustration: ‘Climate Change,’ acrylic and watercolor on canvas, by Mina Bedogne, and found here). As time goes on, we’ll discover the T-Rump’s period in the Oval Office was way-worse then we even supposed, which was shitty beyond shitty, and we knew he hated climate change like he hated taking a bath. He let the clock…
Whoa, this day: Mr. Gibbs: “She was singing about pirates. Bad luck to sing about pirates, with us mired in this unnatural fog… mark my words!” Norrington: “Consider them marked.” — “Pirates of the Caibbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl“ Occasionally comes a day when shit gets marked, and sometimes only after you see…
An aside this afternoon on more T-Rump era shit, this time with the Secret Service — a new non-fiction book, “Zero Fail: The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service,” by Washington Post reporter Carol Leonnig, due out next week, actually covers the protective-agency story back to JFK, the most-recent times, however, are closer in…
Media big-wigs of the MSM are finally circling around to reality journalism of calling Republican lies as ‘lies,’ and not ‘falsehoods, or ‘inaccurate claims,’ or some such nonsense, but f*cking-ass lying.
