Michael Flynn and Sidney Powell were both banned in January of 2021.

But only on ONE of her accounts. She’s still posting on two others.

Predictably, the right is now claiming it’s a ‘badge of honor’ to be kicked off Twitter (however incompletely, as in MTG’s case). And the kitchy artwork is flowing:

This has been greeted with much righteous mockery, but the Right is pretending–hard–that what’s happened is ‘owning the Libs.’ It’s a tough gig, being on the Right!

It looks more like a photo montage to me. In any event, McNaughton would have has T\*\*\*\* looking more ripped.

Well, it’s rather confused. The artist includes not only inanimate objects (a pillow; Rush Limbaugh) but also TWO of Trump: one in a familiar pose, and the other, if I’m not mistaken, in Napoleon’s investiture robes from his 1804 coronation as Emperor.

So guessing the artist’s intention is…difficult.

Yeah. Why would Trump appear twice? Isn’t one of him (banned on Twitter or not, in French imperial robes or not) bad enough?

Trump the Father and Trump the Son, of course. The third person of Trump is the Holy Shit, which is more effluent and not directly pictured.

Unfortunately, Trump the Father really does not like Trump the Son.

Huh. I’m genuinely surprised. I’d have guessed he would have relished the idea that at least some of the media outlets (OANN, Fox, etc.) would give his “press conference” (ha!) plenty of coverage.

And that excuse is pretty thin. Something else is going on.

Maybe Fox News had let him know they were NOT going to cover it? And he feared the humiliation?

Or maybe he’s sick, again.
