No, I donā€™t have TV, just whatever entertainment I can stream on a smart TV. Until I heard her being interviewed on NPR last week, I thought Jen Psaki was the press secretary. ---

As I look more closely it looks like there is a hand possibly belonging to the black guy which is holding a wallet, and there is a white hand on the ground. So I think the idea is that the black guy just killed (and stripped?) the white guy and took his wallet. ---

> [@Spoons](#): > > And then thereā€™s this, which McNaughton describes as, ā€œOver 100 figures depict the modern story of Americaā€™s mayhem. Do you agree? Not only is our country spiraling into madness, but Iā€™m also enraged at how our government has subverted our rights and endangered our safety in the name of political power and leftist ideology.ā€ As someone said, this must date back at least a few monthsā€”before Biden stepped aside. Still, itā€™s remarkable how focused the MAGA folks are on Obama! Front and center and occupying massive real estate inside their brains. And the ā€˜black guy must have robbed white guyā€™ some have noticed in the foregroundā€¦ they truly are obsessed by the way their white supremacism is being disrespected by those Awful Democrats. ---

Wow, he hits all his standard excuses in just a few sentences: - I didnā€™t do anything wrong - If I did something wrong, itā€™s because the rules werenā€™t clear - If the rules were clear, someone else broke them, not me - And theyā€™re stupid rules, anyway - And it was all a set-up by the evil Dems to make me look bad What a shitstain.
