Going back, PAB did the whole - I don’t know this guy/ May have passed him in the hall a few times/ Never did much work for me - bullshit.
And here is my favorite headline of the day!
Donald Trump Jr. Accidentally Insults His Dad In Botched Attempt To Dis DeSantis
Junior forgot who his daddy is! He mixed up the names of daddio and DeSantis and accidentally spoke the truth for once:
“Trump has the personality of a mortician, and the energy that makes Jeb Bush look an Olympian.”
Oh, it’s nice to be able to indulge myself in cackling like a crazy person. We heard it, and we can’t unhear it.
Quick, do they take him to the nearest gallows?
Just like in the Federal government, there needs to be a trial in the Senate requiring a two thirds vote to convict and expel. That’s expected to be close. By the way, one of the Senators is the AG’s wife. He is suspended until the trial concludes.
By his thumbs? Please tell me it’s by his thumbs.
On whom he cheated, I believe, and one of the charges involved his mistress. So that should be interesting.
Yes but she is part of the grift. She is expected to keep him in place from what I have read.
I’m sure God will forgive him on her behalf. I mean, those checks aren’t just going to cash themselves.
Jan. 6 rioters are raking in thousands in donations. Now the US is coming after their haul
Fun facts I gleaned from the article:
-
A popular Christian fund-raising site is their go-to to get money. They cry they’re innocent, but at the same time they’re pleading guilty and cooperating with prosecutors.
-
They’re getting lawyers paid for by the government, and are raising funds for their legal expenses.
-
One of the rioters is a millionaire and raised funds for his legal fees.
It really is just grift all the way down.
Just following the lead of his Dear Leader.
Normally, I care about people being the victims of scams, but with this crowd? Fuck them. They’ve gone out of their way to get scammed by these people, and my only regret is that their money is going to people even worse than them.
I wonder if PAB has sucked so much money out his followers that it will inhibit fundraising for the GOP in the future.
I’ve had the same thought. There is only so much graft you can squeeze out of the sucker base.
I think it would affect the grass roots GOP folks first. State and national level candidates get the big rich donors. But County commission and city council candidates rely on local money. Much of which has been sucked up by the big orange vacuum.
Just consider it as money that would otherwise have gone to magaters’ campaign funds. It’s almost like the scammers are doing the work of angels.
So the criminals are pleading for funds, and they’ve raked some in, and the Gov’t is ripping it away from them after it was dangled in front of them, and the “donors”, one hopes, won’t get it back. It’s like Karma is dishing out multiple lessons in applied schadenfreude.

Well, a lot of his supporters are well-off old people. Good pensions, investments, and huge amounts of equity built up in homes they’ve had paid off for years. So there’s a constant supply of new money for them to grift.
This well won’t run dry until a lot of them have died.
Yeah, they’re giving away their children’s inheritance. Children who, statistically, are less likely to be Trumpists.
