It’s Crenshaw Again

June 27, 2022 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

Texas Republicans wear Dan Crenshaw around their necks like an Olympic Medal.  They are so proud of him. His memoir and social critique, “Fortitude: American Resilience in the Era of Outrage,” soared to the top of the bestseller lists when it was published last year. The book, which he didn’t write but probably did read, was sexy and brutal enough that they all promptly spit shined their dancin’ shoes and did The Dan. They were celebrating that Dan could add Best Selling Author to his Former Navy Seal bragathon.

Come to find out, Crenshaw and his publisher, Hachette Book Group, got a little help from the Texas Republican’s friends.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, which works to elect GOP candidates to Congress, spent nearly $400,000 on bulk purchases of the book. The organization acquired 25,500 copies through two online booksellers, enough to fuel “Fortitude’s” ascent up the bestseller lists. The NRCC said it gave away copies as incentives to donors, raising $1.5 million in the process.

Crenshaw just disclosed that he received between $100,000 and $1,000,000 in royalties from sales of Fortitude in 2021.

And then last month the NRCC spent another $49,000 on books for “donor mementos” last month.

 

He gets by with a little help from his friends.

And here’s something cool. If Crenshaw’s book is tl/dr there’s a Reader’s Digest version. Crenshaw Cliff Notes for Republicans.  It’s 31 pages long, with lots of white space.

 

Oh No, It’s a Trend

Okay, coupled with the John Cornyn letter below, we know who they are going after next.  Get a load of Illinois Republican Congresswitch Mary Miller serving up a big ole mug of Trump plans.

 

Now she’s trying to say that what she meant to say was “right to life.”  Nope.  That just slid off her tongue way too easily.  If she didn’t mean to say it in public, you know she’s said it in private many times before.  She got the memo, y’all.

 

Dear Senator John Cornyn

Dear Senator Cornyn,

I regret to inform you that some racist degenerate hacked your Twitter account and made you look like a damn fool.  You need to change your password and your thinking mechanism.

Love and fried okra,
Juanita Jean

I do not even know what to say.  A cult leader and a rotting corpse of a senate leader allowed the Supreme Court to overturn law that gave women autonomy over their own bodies.

Women will die because of this.  Children will be born just for Republicans to starve them.

You will be overwhelmed with requests for money today to fight this.  Please, please be careful. Do not donate to scam PACs or Action Committees with less action than fundraising.  Hold on to your dollars until we know where money is truly needed.

And, they are not finished.

Justice Thomas calls on SCOUS to overrule Griswold (right to contraception); Lawrence (invalidating anti-sodomy laws); Obergefell (marriage equality)

 


Texas Attorney General, Trump buttkisser, and indicted felon Ken Paxton is so excited!

Okay, it’s my third 25th birthday today and I’m trying to keep up with all my presents.  Honey, there’s a whole list of congresstoads who asked for pardons.  Y’all help me keep up with them all. You do not ask for a pardon unless you know you’ve broken the law. These are the best presents ever!
