In parochial kindergarten I learned the “[God is great, God is good](https://www.xavier.edu/jesuitresource/online-resources/prayer-index/mealtime-prayers#:~:text=God%20is%20great%2C%20God%20is,thank%20him%20for%20our%20bread.)” mealtime prayer which then always had something about lettuce. I remember this very clearly because I always wondered why they made such a big deal about thanking God for lettuce instead of something more substantial.

Well, if you look at the picture on that prayer site, most of what’s shown there consists of salad ingredients. Apparently Catholics are infatuated with salad. If I had to guess what meal is being prepared there, it looks like it will be a bean and pasta salad followed by a whole smoked salmon. At least, that fish is glowing as orange as the scowling mug of a certain recently convicted felon, so I assume it’s smoked salmon.

I think the appropriate invocation should be (I know it doesn’t rhyme but it has such a pleasant poetic meter to it):

_God is great, God is good  
God is “dog” spelled backwards.  
Lettuce pray._

Hey, if you’re going to invoke the orange Christian false deity that smells worse than rotting fish, you should know that “pray” is the wrong word. For him and his ilk, the homophone “prey” is always the proper choice!

Hey, the fact that trump can no longer bear arms, bears repeating: trump has had his gun license revoked!

I still don’t find trump any more disarming though. Probably because his main weapon is his mouth.

As if the lack of a license is going to stop trump from getting a gun if he wants one! Both Junior and Eric are gun nuts and have a lot of guns.

Laws do no apply to the trump klan, I’m pretty sure Scotus is fixing to rule that way anyway.

Giuliani [pleaded not guilty in May](https://apnews.com/article/arizona-fake-electors-charges-2020-election-giuliani-86f4938ff4570a833dd4d1c44705460f) to nine felony charges stemming from his alleged role in the fake electors effort. He is among 18 people indicted in the Arizona case, including Trump attorneys John Eastman, Christina Bobb and Jenna Ellis.

And bankruptcy creditors knocking at the door. Seems his company gets paid tens of thousands or dollars each month but Rudy claims he gets zero or won’t file any paperwork telling where the money went - except his girlfriends credit card.
