Nunes and Gym Jordan are getting the Medal of Freedom.
If I had one, I’d return it in disgust at this point, as it clearly doesn’t represent anything honorable or good about America anymore.
Circling back to the puns about the hill they want to die on, there is this – caution: viewing this thing may make you want to run to the saccharine shelter of the nearest Thomas Kinkade.
To me it looks like parody, but if it were Onionesque, they probably would have insisted on something that looks better than psychotic 5th-grader-with-palsy quality.
Is Melania (if that’s Melania) putting nails in his feet or taking them out?
it looks to me like she is cupping her hands as if to catch – uh, forget that thought, do not let it into your head
What did cross my mind is how narrow the desecrated US flag is where it crosses Trump’s groinal area. Clearly there’s not much to hide there. On the other hand, they have enormously exaggerated the size of his hands, and depicted his pony-keg abs as a six-pack.
But the Orange Imbecile already released his Twittered summary of the call, so what’s the problem with releasing the actual audio?
…or come from his.
They’re always the first ones when I think of the Republican Party. Sure, there’s others with equally loud bluster, in the Gaetz / (D.) Collins / Gohmert mould mold, but there’s something extra uber-scummy about those two. On a totally personal, petty level, I can imagine them prone to loudly snapping “fuck-you!” to anyone who disagrees with them in the hallways of the capitol. Or at each other in drunken Friday bull sessions with their secetly-smuggled-in Russian lady friends.
Rush was bad enough - Flynn next?
Like a Sharpie?
Loving this. If only…
Florida state Rep. Omari Hardy (D) called for shuttering Mar-a-Lago after videos of a New Year’s Eve party at President Trump’s private club appeared to show dozens of attendees celebrating without masks.
Makes more sense. Wasn’t it a Scotsman who came up with the CFSG epithet? The Shit Gibbon part, anyway.
When I draw a straight (great circle) line from DC to Москва, the 2/3rds point is about Reykjavik – what sort of welcome would the Icelanders give him?
Cold and wet, I presume.
Quick, fire up Eyjafjallajökull so he can’t land!
Yeah, well, uh,
They’re just using the same sense of equality as the Declaration of Independence and the rest follows from that.
Then it’s Keith Richards: A Life of Sobriety followed by Kanye West: Two Decades of Restraint and Absolute Sanity.
Hee-hee. I think the police decided to delay the arrest until he showed back up in DC again in the hopes of keeping him in the jug while whatever event he traveled to DC for happens. May they prevent his release until after the electoral count on Wednesday.
"The leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, was arrested by D.C. police late Monday afternoon on a warrant charging him with burning a Black Lives Matter banner taken from a historic Black church during a demonstration last month, officials said.

Police said Tarrio, who was in custody Monday evening, also was charged with two counts of possession of high capacity ammunition feeding devices, which is a legal term for a firearms magazine that allows guns to hold additional bullets. The devices were found during the arrest, police said."
Washington Post, sort of paywalled (most people get 5 or 6 stories free every month):
His weapons charge could get him up to a year in prison. I hope they are squeezing him for information about what his members have planned.
Actually, I’m pretty sure the authorities already know what these stupid lads have planned. They are not the sharpest tools in the shed.
Expect more arrests to follow. (conspiracy to commit mass murder?)
Ten to one Donald’s donations are already up due to this. Nothing pleases his followers so much as their fantasies about Libs Crying Lib Tears, and these “awards” will goose those fantasies up to the max. The grateful Trumpites will get out their credit cards and give accordingly.
If donations start to flag after a few days, count on Trump to announce that Joe Arpaio, Roy Moore, and the Pharma Bro will be joining Nunes and Gym on the dais.
