Jennifer Holliday has dropped out of the inauguration concert, releasing a letter saying that she stands with the LGBTQ community against the Trump administration and their policies. Long-time Trump buddy Paul Anka has also pulled out, saying he has a conflict with his ongoing child custody case.
One person has posted on Twitter, without proof, that she has been hired as a seat filler for the audience at the inauguration.
People are still having his babies?
I have a fantasy of everyone in the audience at the inauguration turning their backs to him as he steps on stage. I don’t know that his ego could take it.
I have a fantasy that everyone in the audience will have been paid to be there. “Papering the house,” it’s called.
Today Tom Hanks hosted the hilarious NPR radio program “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me.” He remarked that there would be three presidents attending the inauguration, Bush, Carter, and Clinton. He said the other former Presidents declined the invitation because…

I don’t know about everyone (won’t the Nazis end up smacking their neighbour in the head with their raised hands as they pivot?) but I won’t be surprised if some do that. As they should.
Anyone want to hazard a guess as to which foreign leader will be the first to meet with Trump after the inauguration?
C’mon, take a guess!

Did you guess Vladimir Putin? You’re right!
Reports are that the summit will take place in Iceland, with the details to be hammered out in future communication via dead drops and brush passes.
They should have asterisks on their backs.
Israeli newspapers are reporting that US intelligence agencies are warning Israeli intelligence not to share information with Trump, unless they want it getting to Russia.
Moscow Center rules. Trump inconspicuously leaves a yellow chalk mark on Greenland, to let Putin know the meeting is secure. Code name for the meeting is Lou Blue, the meeting isn’t a summit but a tryst, Trump status for relationship is “Its hugely complicated!”, because he’s had a womb implanted so can bear Putin’s…
Wait. That’s crazier than the truth. But just barely.
Trump is going to make Penthouse great again.
Any of you history buffs out there see the resemblance between Trump and Kaiser Wilhelm? Like how Willy cooked up a summit meeting with his cousin Nicky, where they got together as sovereigns and put together a rearrangement of the European network of alliances that set the diplomats of a dozen nations to running around with their hair on fire?
Then the rational men had to sit the two leaders down in their seperate domains to explain that the whole idea was ridiculous, that they really didn’t have the power to turn everything upside down because of a friendly chat between cousins. Thus demonstrating to an anxious world that two of the most powerful men in Europe didn’t have a nickel’s worth of good sense between them.
If I had more money and less conscience, I would be buying Exxon right now.
Also, would like to know who quietly bought a bunch of shares yesterday, day before.
I’m wondering how many Rockettes will take a knee.
They’ll make that an impeachable offense.
The Trump team is considering evicting the press from the White House press room. One administration official said they wanted to get the press out of the building because the press is “the opposition party.”
You need a really classy venue for a Presidential press conference. A location on private property also has certain clear advantages. Wonder where? Hmmm.
Looks like I misread that, they still mean to have the press conferences in the White House, which has the advantage of tradition, but exclude undesirable so-called “reporters”. That is also traditional, just a tradition for a different county.
I’m sure we’ll have our resident Trumpeters telling us that this is totally normal.
Prediction: There will be a Republican to shut down or limit the powers of the Federal Election Commission.
It’s shit like this that chills me to the bone.
