A Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude about Things Happening to Trump & His Enablers (Part 2)

The more reports I read the more I believe the base of the maga party is part of the sovcit world

Well, they’re both fundamentally based on a strong belief in conspiracy theories. So I’d expect a certain amount of overlap, and even more borrowing of ideas. They’ll latch onto any nonsense if it sounds like it will get them what they want.

That certainly seems to be the strategy of the modern day Trump party.

A classic line

Ok, I circling back around. TRUMP had a handgun license in NY?!!! I wonder if it was a CCW.

How many classes did he take? Hmmm… It’s small potatoes, but I wouldn’t let that asshole near a book of matches.

Who did he pay off for that?

No, no, no. If someone tricks you into saying you “understand” the law, that means you “stand under” the law, and the law applies to you. You have to insist that you do not under stand.

I was going to make that joke, but thought it might be a bit too obscure :grinning:

Huh. A congressional subpoena seemed to do the trick…

From The Borowitz Report:

Now, now, folks, can’t you see how realistic this painting is? Just look at how small our Divine King’s hands are! Clearly it’s an accurate portrait.

I have a mental image of Bannon being hosed down like Charlton Heston in Planet of the Apes.

The latest issue of The New Yorker just arrived.

“Motion to dismiss all charges.”

“Denied.”

Sudo motion to dismiss all charges.”

“… Granted.”

That almost makes me miss my Linux days.

As always, there’s an XKCD for that:

I don’t get “sudo” or the XKCD reference. Guess I’m not one of the cool kids. But I do get this:

Maybe I should resubscribe. Looks like things might get interesting in its pages.

It’s a techhead/sysadmin thing. Kind of the opposite of the “cool kids.” :stuck_out_tongue:

Still don’t get the SUDO ref, help us normies out, please?

The short version is that prefixing a command with “sudo” elevates the privilege for that command to superuser status. So the joke is that if you “sudo” an order to someone, they can’t refuse it.

Jeez, Thank you.
