I read Deep, as Derp, and now I think the funniest thing in the entire world is referring to Trumps lackeys as the Derp State. And kids who run awkwardly in heavy snow gear like in A Christmas Story. So it’s the second funniest thing in the entire world right now.
And they only want to spew their OWN vile bile. When other spewers show up-- and they will-- WAH WAH WAH-- no fair! Our spew is better then anyone else’s (or worse, depending on how you look at it).
Elizabeth Warren tweeted a rebuttal at Mnuchin (see below). I’d have been less polite: “Nice try at condescension, Stevie-baby. But anyone who’s seen both of you at work knows that Porter has a good 40 IQ points on you–maybe more.”
“We had to destroy the village Constitution in order to save it.”
I’ve never been in the military or held public office, but I seem to recall something about promising to “preserve, protect, and defend” the Constitution. Flynn, McInerny et.al. would appear to have forgotten that part.
(Dante put oathbreakers in the Ninth Circle. And from his account, it gets a mite cold there. Those who would abandon their oaths would be advised to bear that in mind when packing for the afterlife.)
Well, it will make Joe’s job easier if a bunch of Republicans get very sick. It’s like they’re trying to make that happen.
Following a sharp spike in coronavirus cases across the country, State Department leadership sent out a notice to employees one week ago recommending that “any non-mission critical events” be changed to “virtual events as opposed to in-person gatherings.”
That same week, U.S. event planners were told that the guidance did not apply to the upcoming functions they were working on: large indoor holiday parties hosted by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and his wife, Susan, on the eighth floor of the State Department involving hundreds of guests, food and drinks.

A copy of one invitation, obtained by The Washington Post, welcomes guests to a Dec. 15 event titled “Diplomacy at Home for the Holidays” in the Benjamin Franklin Room, the department’s flagship reception space, which features cut-glass chandeliers and towering Corinthian columns. Invitations have already gone out to 900 people, said two U.S. officials familiar with the planning, raising concerns about a potential superspreader event.

Hey, keep your voice down. Sooner or later the white wing will find out that Parler is funded by George Soros, and everything there is being archived as evidence against them. Until then, let them keep going.
(1) Democrats deliberately lose 2016 election, allowing Trump policies to promote global warming.
(2) Sea ice melts, opening up Northwest Passage to navigation in October.
(3) North Korean flotilla delivers marked up Biden ballots to Maine.

As Newsweek reports, DeVos’ family yacht, the SeaQuest, is a foreign vessel in American waters. In fact, according to the report, the 164-foot vessel flies the Cayman islands flag even though it seems to hang out all the time in the United States. In fact, when DeVos’ family boat was moored at the Huron Boat Basin in 2018, the $40 million floating luxury item was reportedly untethered by an unknown suspect or suspects. The Huron Boat Basin is in Ohio. No, not the famous Ohio Cayman Islands you’ve never heard about—the Ohio in the United States that’s near Indiana and stuff.

Good news is that the DeVos family fleet consists of nine more big fancy yachts. So they’re like, screwing tons of American states out of taxable revenue that could help with things like … education. According to the Capital & Main, SeaQuest at $40 million could fetch Michigan—where the DeVos family company RDV is located—$2.4 million in taxes. But there are other very fancy reasons that fancy people like the DeVos clan register as foreign seafarers: Fewer law and order and regulations on the exploitation of humans.

Hmm. What do you call a billionaire who registered a $40 million, 164-foot yacht in the Cayman Islands to avoid $2.4 million in U.S. taxes, while undermining public schools? The worst Education Secretary in the history of America. Bye-bye, Betsy DeVos. You won’t be missed. https://twitter.com/thehill/status/1333887122835640321
