Endorses Donald Trump.

David Duke, a white nationalist and former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, is urging the listeners of his radio program to volunteer and vote for Donald Trump. “Voting for these people, voting against Donald Trump at this point is really treason to your heritage,” Duke said on the David Duke Radio Program Wednesday, referring to Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

Yeah, because, you know, Cruz and Rubio are so un-racists.

I wonder if Duke is going to let Trump borrow his hat?

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

The Washington Post:

“Secretive Society of Elite Hunters” is code for “Old White Guys Doing Kinky Sex.”

The society is called the International Order of St. Hubertus group and it was founded in 1966 in at Bohemian Club in San Francisco.  The Club is associated with the Bohemian Grove.

Members of the worldwide, male-only society wear dark-green robes emblazoned with a large cross and the motto “Deum Diligite Animalia Diligentes,” which means “Honoring God by honoring His creatures,” according to the group’s website. Some hold titles, such as Grand Master, Prior and Knight Grand Officer. The Order’s name is in honor of Hubert, the patron saint of hunters and fishermen.

That’s just creepy, y’all.

I couldn’t help but notice at the Washington Post put this story under National Security.  That’s even creepier.

Thanks to SteveTheReturned for the heads up.

Remember Trump University?  Yeah, well, that’s okay because they never heard of you either.

But, something fun may be afoot with good Ole Trump U.

This spring, just as the GOP nomination battle enters its final phase, frontrunner Donald Trump could be forced to take time out for some unwanted personal business: He’s due to take the witness stand in a federal courtroom in San Diego, where he is being accused of running a financial fraud.

It seems that Trump University was a $60,000 per person fraud.

The plaintiffs, former students at Trump University, allege they were misled into maxing out their credit cards and paying up to $60,000 in fees for seminars in hotel ballrooms and “mentoring” by Trump’s “hand-picked” real estate experts.

Donald Trump misleading people to get their money? Really? You could plug me in to a downshifting nuclear powered submarine and I wouldn’t be more shocked!

Trump on the witness stand?  That’ll be yuuuuugh.

A divided Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has dismissed the criminal case against former Gov. Rick Perry.

The 6-2 majority opinion—accompanied by two concurrences and two dissents—dismissed Perry’s charge of abuse of official capacity, and upheld the Third Court of Appeal’s decision to dismiss his coercion of a public servant charge.

The whole story is here.

The court’s opinion was written Presiding Judge Sharon Keller.

Killer Keller is famous in Texas.

As noted in the article, the court totally re-wrote Texas law to come to this opinion.  So, okay, listen for the outrage from Texas conservatives about activist judges.

Crickets?  Really?

Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday Dear Bud!

Happy Birthday to you!

Today is the birthday of my muse, my friend, and my hero, Bud Malone.

Everybody wish Bud a giant bug ole sloppy hug of a birthday because he’s just the damn best.

At the end of last year, I wrote about the newest SuperPAC player, a Republican running for the 23rd Congressional District of Texas.

His name is William Peterson, aka Billy Hart and aka Will Hart, who formed a PAC called Vote God’s Will, which is more catchy than Vote God’s Peterson.

So last night I got an email from William, aka Billy aka Will, to let me know that he has a new aka.

He has an announcement of who he really is – William Peterson-Hart de Guzman.

He also has a new website.  Gird your loins and try this one.

Warning: if you have ears and can hear out of them, do not listen to the song.

I will give a crisp new one dollar bill, American money, to anybody who can explain that website in the English language.

I do truly love yew, Texas.
