The Trump Administration: The Clusterfuck Continues (Part 2)

How very Epsteinian… I mean Goldsteinian of her.

We really are in a different world now. MTG is telling trumpeters “insensitive clowns”.

My hypocrisy detector just went into a spin at lightspeed.

But, of course, the boondoggle of his ridiculous no end in sight construction of his vanity projects is just peachy keen.

Weaponized justice system targets Texas school districts.

Isn’t how the schools run supposed to be a state issue without interference from the feds, at least according to the felon and his so-called administration? But, of course, the real reason they’re freaking out over this is the incredble display of civics awareness by the students.

At least one Republican in Congress is fed up with the felon’s corruption.

What a grift! First use your political office to have things named after you…

I think I finally figured out why my late father liked Rip van Simple so much. Dad was the easiest man in the world to find a gift for. All you needed to do was get the tackiest thing in the shop. And Rip van Simple is tackying up a few of the Air Force’s planes.

The Armed Forces Network used to air a “spot” basically telling all the servicemembers not to be afraid to tell higher-ups something they don’t want to hear. Yeah, right.

The rest of the article highlights the general’s resume.

Do you know what the USCG’s missions are? Evidently it’s time to update that page.

Aw, she gave him a prized possession and his response?

And the kicker!

“Maria who? Never heard of her. Fake news! I won the thing on my own! Waaaaah! No fair!”

:confounded_face:

He got what he wanted from her, so now he doesn’t need to even know her name. Just ask “Melanie” about that.

You have GOT to see this video posted by RFK/HHS:

Just two guys working out together, bare-chested in a wood-paneled porn set, playing some hard-core pickleball, showing off muscles to each other, and sharing a moment together drinking a tall glass of whole milk in a hot tub while wearing tight jeans. RFK asking impatiently “Where’s kid?” Bob Ritchie laughing coyly into the camera whilst his lips glisten from the creamy milk treat. The only thing missing is them sharing a line of blow off a urinal rim.

And RFK jumping into a bath tub in his tight jeans is giving definite never-nude vibes. Maybe it’s to hide the track marks.

Shouldn’t it be raw milk? And no, I’m not going to watch it.

I think the maga/maha crew are too stupid to know there’s a difference.

Eta: the video clearly shows they’re drinking whole milk by way of the word “whole” on the bottom of the screen, made to look like it’s a white creamy, drippy substance.

I hope we’re all aware that drinking milk has become a symbol of White supremacy.

well-lubricated fist.

I’m just going to assume this was the exercise bike they were using until I see otherwise.

So when we say clusterfuck we mean fist fuck? Gee, English is a difficult language.

I thought “1%-ers” meant something else entirely.

“Herschel Walker, speaking about loyal. How good a football player was Herschel? Now he’s ambassador to the Bahamas. I don’t know. Bahamas. Bermuda. Is he Bahamas? Whatever. It’s a nice place.”

“Sometimes we have to force ourselves upon them because they’re so bad.”

“Atlanta. Atlanta. We could take care of Atlanta. I’ll tell you what, you oughta get them to call me. We could take care of Atlanta so fast. They don’t want to call. Don’t forget – we move people out.”

“Do we love Nicki Minaj? She was here a couple of weeks ago. So beautiful. Her skin so beautiful. I said, ‘Nicki, so beautiful.’ Her nails, her nails they’re like that long. I said, ‘Nicki, are they real?’ She said she didn’t want to get into that.”

Some day there will be a serious tome;

Journalists Arrested in Cameroon While Reporting on Trump’s Secretive Deportation Program

An Associated Press reporter was hit and held with three other journalists and a lawyer, two detainees said, while at a center for migrants secretively deported from the United States.

Four journalists investigating a secretive Trump administration effort to deport migrants to the African nation of Cameroon were detained on Tuesday, according to two of the people detained.

The journalists, along with a lawyer representing most of 15 detained migrants, were seized by the police at a state-run compound in Yaoundé, the capital of Cameroon, where they were interviewing the deportees.

The New York Times reported on Saturday that the compound was a detention center for African migrants who were recently deported from the United States by the Department of Homeland Security.

None of the deportees are Cameroonian citizens. And almost all had received protection from American courts, which banned the government from sending them back to their home countries, where they would most likely face persecution, according to government documents obtained by The Times and interviews with their lawyers.

The five people detained on Tuesday were taken to the judicial police headquarters, where the journalists were separated and interrogated, according to Joseph Awah Fru, the lawyer supporting the deportees, and Randy Joe Sa’ah, a freelance journalist who regularly works for the BBC and was one of the detainees.

The three other journalists — a reporter, a photojournalist and a videographer — were based in Cameroon and working on assignment for The Associated Press. The A.P. said that, according to its understanding, the reporter was slapped but “did not sustain serious injury.”

Some of the journalists, Mr. Fru and Mr. Sa’ah said, were kept in a cell for hours. The two men said the A.P. reporter appeared to have been beaten up and had told them the police had attacked him.

All of the five were later freed. Before the journalists were released, the police confiscated their phones, cameras and laptops, saying the journalists had captured sensitive government information, according to Mr. Fru and Mr. Sa’ah. It was unclear if any had been charged.

My bold.

“And almost all had received protection from American courts…”

Fat lot of good that did them.

A Black History Month speech spent proving you’re not a racist by ticking off a list of black celebrities that are loyal to you is…an interesting choice.

And it will be in the fiction section.

Reminds me of There’s good ~ and there’s bad ~.

Or perhaps in the Psychiatry section. As an example of clinical psychosis.

Two weeks ago: Trump didn’t post that racist video of the Obamas, some staffer must have done it
