I’m feeling a bit blah today. So even less of my nonsense than usual.

    Fuckface is “exhausted”
    already?

    Gosh! What will this mean for prospects of all the major Hillbilly agenda items, like The Fabulous Wall, The Beautiful Health Care, and The Vast Meskin Roundups? If Fuckface collapses after 24 hours away from a familiar toilet I don’t see how he’s ever going to provide the needed leadership. Too bad.

    Many people are beginning to discuss Fuckface’s health problems. He’s only a few days into a luxury overseas trip and he’s decompensating rapidly. He may even have to cut the trip short. The rest of the team are standing by to step in for him in the man time. But it’s very worrying that at age 70, with his weight balooning from 240 last year to 265 this year from all the campaign fast food, and the stress from the job, that he may need to be hospitalized before too long.

    It’s official: SCOTUS brands GOP gerrymandering as racist.

    “The Supreme Court struck down two congressional districts in North Carolina Monday because race played too large a role in their creation, a decision voting rights advocates said would boost challenges in other states.”

    3,
    and the best news of all? If and when Democrats seize the levers of redistricting to control the outcome of Congressional races (as we should) our efforts will not be subject to any of this kind of scrutiny! We can freely ass-fuck Republican-Traitor voters with utter impunity – squeezing them into an ever shrinking number of weirdly shaped concentrated trailer park hells. Even if the results should happen to disproportionately disadvantage certain Mountain Dew drankin’ white voters – purely by coincidence of course – we don’t have to show any “compelling interest”.

    @2 …..”he may need to be hospitalized before too long.” One can only hope and wish for that.

    If and when Democrats seize the levers of redistricting to control the outcome of Congressional races …

    That’s a very heavy lift, given the number of state-level legislative seats lost by Dems during the Obama presidency.

    But good luck with that. You’ve got four years or so to undo much of the damage of the past eight, prior to the next census.

    Wonder how many EVs New York state will lose next time around?

    @1 Trump has run out of stamina?? How could this be? He was supposed to have a BIGLY amount of stamina and yet he’s only been gone for a few days. Could it be that the glowing orb sucked it all out of him?

    Goldy’s got some company:

    Michael Bennett ✔ @mosesbread72
    @seattletimes @Matt_Calkins My boycott has just started against you guys

    Michael Bennett ✔ @mosesbread72
    @seattletimes @Matt_Calkins I will never talk to seattle times the rest of my career n will encourage my teammates to do the same
    1:10 PM – 21 May 2017

    Apparently a Times writer called Bennett immature.

  12. 12

    By @ 10 I was not intending to imply that Goldy is immature, but that he has some company in that Michael Bennett also feels antipathy toward the Seattle Times.

    Let’s eat grandma.

  13. 13

    That’s a very heavy lift, given the number of state-level legislative seats lost by Dems during the Obama presidency.

    In New York? California? Illinois? Virginia? Maryland? New Jersey?

    We need 24. We can get 6 in California alone. Six more in Illinois. And with Fuckface doing so much of the lifting for us…

    A short observation in Hillbilly-ism.

    Really, actual Appalachian hillbillies.

    I spent the weekend in a “Real” American city and because it was only an hour drive from the border of one of two states in the U.S. I’ve never been in I rented a car and headed even further into Trumpland.

    What did I see? Well first off, I saw a whole lot of people of working age who appeared to have only two pressing concerns while standing around the riverbank on a weekday, whether to scratch themselves or weather to keep standing there. There were Trump signs and stickers and MAGA hats everywhere and I even saw a handwritten, “Trump Bring the Jobs” sign.

    So I did a little digging. This town was a pretty decent player in the region post Civil War as Tobacco, steel and glass manufacturing flourished and proximity to a major river spurred growth. The Great Depression took a bit of a toll but they bounced back until WWII when most of the industry moved to the much larger city in another state on the same river an hour away. Since 1950 the city has lost residents in every census with the biggest being 19% drop during the Reagan 80s. (I could comment on this but why bother) The city has had near or above 10% population loss every decade since 1960.

    The city as of 2010 census is 93% white about 4.5% black and a smattering of Native american, Hispanic and Asian making up the rest. The median age keeps creeping up and now sits at 44 years.

    These are solid Republicans of the stupid kind. The county hasn’t elected a Democrat to any national or state office since 1950. They don’t notice that their two worst decades came during Reagan and then Bush I and their second worst economic decade was during Nixon/Ford with Carter in the mix.

    These are people who really think it’s all going to be better now that America will be great again. These are stupid people still living in a town that suffered the fatal blow in the 70s-80s but probably blame Obama and Democrats because reasons.

    @6 There was a time when getting rid of Hitler and Stalin looked damn near impossible, too, but it came to pass.

    15,
    note also that Врач немой ебать can’t help but go to EVs. The popular vote loss bothers them bigly. And it should. Because it means that in a system where Congressional District boundaries were drawn even neutrally (which most def aint the case) they’d never have another House majority ever again, forever and ever. Since the Hillbilly Traitor Russian controlled states gerrymander, the Patriotic American Blue states must also. And once we do the tide will turn in Congress.
    The Traitors are certainly right about one thing: Patriotic American Blue state legislatures should never have allowed Traitors to infiltrate. They must be exterminated from the bottom up.

    Yeah, the US Constitution has a funny way of doing that to those of us grounded in reality.

    Probably why those of you who are not find it noteworthy.

    “The context in which the committee has called for General Flynn’s testimonial production of documents makes clear that he has more than a reasonable apprehension that any testimony he provides could be used against him,”

    Of course you choose less than a full sentence.

    …but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations,except as to the Place of Chusing Senators.

    20,
    got plans, do you? Put ’em up on the big list with The Beautiful Wall, The Fabulous Health Care, The Mooslim Ban, and The Big Meskin Round-Up. Meanwhile the only such laws currently having any impact are the ones that block you Russian-Puppet-Traitors from trying to draw the Neeeegros out of the House.
    No law against drawing out “Aggrieved”, lonely, rural white senior citizens who cruise the local fast food shops for high school talent.

    “I didn’t think that he was someone who would bring benefit to the president or to the administration,. And I made that very clear to candidate Trump, and I made it very clear to President-elect Trump. That was my opinion, my view.”

    Pence will get there. Just give him time.

    You absolutely don’t have to live in a SwingLeft targeted district to get involved. Anybody anywhere can have an impact. A number of very, very, very vulnerable districts are being targeted in California, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida. With Hillbilly-Traitors lining up like Russian zombies to kiss the orange ass, voters in these districts will be ready for Congressional change. You can be part of that change.

    The 71 Congressional “Watergate Babies” elected in 1974 in the wake of the Republican Party’s disgraceful criminal scandal were considerably younger, more liberal, and more politically reform minded than their Democratic colleagues and certainly the perverted Republican crooks they replaced. And that makes sense considering what the voters were reacting to. A dreadful war without end that disproportionately impacted the young. Long ignored demands for civil rights. An entrenched party political system that disenfranchised the young. And of course, a Presidency that was corrupt through and through.

    What will voters react to in 2018?
    Treason. Betrayal. Dismissal. Abandonment of basic patriotism and loyalty to America and Americans.
    A Hillbilly-Treason Party majority so dedicated to their own power and “winning” that they gleefully gather to drunkenly party the night away after voting to cancel their American voter’s health insurance, while simultaneously scheming to give big weapons discounts to Saudis and preferential trade agreements to Russians. A Hillbilly-Treason President so carried away by his self-perceived grandiosity that he thinks he’ll be celebrated for obstructing justice instead of investigated for it.

    The Trump Babies are coming in 2018. Hopefully at least 24 of them. But who they will be as legislators will in a very large measure be a product of what kind of Hillbilly-Treason betrayals the voters are reacting to. They may not be, in fact, particularly more liberal or progressive (sorry Bernie Bros). But they most certainly will be more focused on gaining, consolidating, and using legislative power and authority to run the power mad Hillbilly-Traitors and other Russian Puppets out of government.

    Terrorist bombs at an Ariana Grande concert in U.K. have killed at least 20 fans. This smells like ISIS.

    Say, didn’t President Pissypants boast about eliminating ISIS in, like, his first week in office? What happened to that?

    Americans will die because of Trump’s and the GOP’s gross incompetence.

    “Health insurers plan higher premiums as exasperation with Trump grows”

    “The growing frustration with the Trump administration’s management — reflected in letters to state regulators and in interviews with more than two dozen industry and government officials nationwide — undercuts a key White House claim that insurance marketplaces are collapsing on their own.”

    “But most health plans and state regulators interviewed for this story said the Trump administration has significantly exacerbated turmoil in the marketplaces in recent months, contributing to rising premiums and the threat of marketplaces exits.”

    “There is no consistency to the messages,” said Ceci Connolly, chief executive of the Alliance of Community Health Plans, whose members include leading health systems such as Kaiser Permanente and Geisinger Health Plan. “We are very confused.”

    Doctor Dumbfuck’s guy fucks up again.

    “Trump asked two top intelligence officials to push back on Russian collusion probe”

    “The problem wasn’t so much asking them to issue statements, it was asking them to issue false statements about an ongoing investigation,” a former senior intelligence official told the Post.

    “An internal memo written by a senior NSA official documented Trump’s request to Rogers, according to the Post. One official said that memo—and others like it—could be obtained by Robert Mueller, the former FBI director who was tapped last week to head the Russia investigation.”

    Drumpf’s budget leaves no doubt about what his priorities are: It takes a meatax to the social safety net. Here’s how his budget chief defines “compassion”:

    “We are no longer going to measure compassion by the number of programs or the number of people on those programs,” he told reporters. “We will measure compassion and success by the number of people who get off those programs.”

    Yah, so we can spend more on the military and give tax cuts to billionaires.

    @43 “I’m assuming alcohol was involved.”

    Five years in an alcohol-free facility should cure that.

    John Joseph Boswell, a millionaire from Florida, was in town celebrating the swearing in of the new Groper-In-Chief when he decided that he liked the look of the maid who was hard at work cleaning his room. And without her consent, he proceeded to touch her.

    Barack Obama kept the trolls here for 8 years. Drumpf scared them away. They’ll return, if not sometime soon, then right after Drumpf is no longer El Prezzzzidente. Drumpf is good troll repellent nowadays.

    Wednesday, Trumppp: “Hey Russians! I got this totally cool secret intel! But I’m not telling yooooooou where it came from, because that’s a secret, and I don’t tell secrets!”

    Monday, Washington Post: “Donnie revealed secret intel to the Russians…”
    Trumppp, “No, I never said where the intel came from!”

    The very next Next Monday.
    Trumppp, “Hey, reporters! Aren’t you glad I never told Russia that the secret intel came from Israel?”

    The man really is that stupid.

    Because for the last 241 years, this nation and its citizens have cherished the freedom and liberty that this country was founded upon. Many, many Americans, brave Americans, over the years, have lost their lives to be able to protect that freedom and liberty. They’ve lost their lives also to protect the freedom and liberties of other countries and other peoples around the world. Our ability to choose our elected leaders as we see fit is, I believe, an inalienable right that we must protect with all of our resources and all of our authority and power. And the fact that the Russians tried to influence that election so that the will of the American people was not going to be realized by that election, I find outrageous and something that we need to, with every last ounce of devotion to this country, resist, and to try to act to prevent further instances of that. And so therefore I believe that this is something that is critically important to every American. It’s very important to me, for my children and grandchildren, to make sure that never again will a foreign country try to influence and interfere in the foundation stone of this country, which is electing our democratic leaders.

    Fuck Yeah! Choke on that, Hillbillies!
    Or just go right on eating your own brains. Whatevs.
