The damn Russians, who are reminding me daily why we haven’t liked them since WWII and we didn’t even like them much before then,  are whining that we’ve stolen their high saluting, fancy butt property.

Well, Skippy, you stole our damn election.  I figure we’re even.

Russia is pressing demands that the US give it access to two diplomatic compounds seized in the US last year.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said it was unacceptable to set preconditions for returning the properties. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov described the move as “daylight robbery”.

Oh, look the hell who’s talking about robbery.  President Obama seized your property because you declared internet war on us. Look, I’ll admit your geeks are better than our geeks, but mainly because we don’t shoot one of them every week as a warning to the other geeks who might slack off a little and, you know, sleep or eat.

I’m very sorry. … *All right*, you’re sorrier than I am, but I am as sorry as well. … I am as sorry as you are, Dmitri! Don’t say that you’re more sorry than I am, because I’m capable of being just as sorry as you are. … So we’re both sorry, all right?! … All right.

Look, we understand that both of our presidents are a horrible threat to democracy, but we can’t seize Trump Tower.  Yet.  Maybe we’ll trade you when we impeach his ample rump.

I dunno, I just dunno, but it seems to me that pissing off the Secret Service might not be a sparkling idea.

Sekulow – got himself some Rick Perry glasses

On Sunday morning, Jay Sekulow, a member of Trump’s legal team which means he’s being paid money for this, lowered his butt into a seat on ABC News and announced to the world that the Trump Junior investigation was over, over, over, because the Secret Service would not have allowed spies into a meeting with Junior.

Idiots like that don’t grow on trees, y’all.  This is a real specially cultivated idiot.

“Donald Trump, Jr. was not a protectee of the USSS in June, 2016. Thus we would not have screened anyone he was meeting with at that time,” Secret Service spokesman Mason Brayman said in a statement to Reuters.

I would also like to add that the Secret Service is there to protect you from people with guns.  They are not there to protect you from yourself.

Liberty County is in East Texas, which explains a lot about this story.

Precinct 2 Liberty County Commissioner is the former sheriff of the county, Greg Arthur.   He, of course, is a Republican.  He took his wife and family on a vacation at Garner State Park, which is pretty much on the other side of Texas.

While there, Arthur encountered a gun problem.

“We were at the pavilion and I was wearing my concealed handgun. It was shifting around a little bit so I stepped out into the parking lot to readjust,” Arthur said.

While making adjustments, Arthur says he accidentally hit the trigger, causing the gun to fire downward toward the ground. The bullet grazed Arthur’s leg, entering the skin and creating a gash before it exited and hit the ground. As it hit the ground, fragments of concrete and the bullet reportedly scattered, hitting two other nearby people including a 6-year-old boy.

Insisting that is was “just an accident,” Arthur proves once and for all that guns are not safe, especially his.

The incident is the second time a firearm owned by Arthur has accidentally discharged. Several years ago, a Liberty business owner and a friend of Arthur’s accidentally shot himself with Arthur’s handgun. The business owner sustained non-life threatening injuries.

His guns seem to have a mind of their own.

The Trump Campaign secretly paid a flack to defend Trump on Fox Business.

No, of course Fox did not reveal that the guy was a liar for hire.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

Okay, this is kinda weird.

The Trump 2020 reelection campaign paid $50,000 to Junior’s lawyer two weeks before the Russia meeting came out.

“It was not immediately clear whether the campaign expenditure was renumeration for Futerfas’s representation of Trump’s son, on Russia-related or other matters. But the payment sticks out on a presidential campaign’s expenditure list: Futerfas’s expertise is in white collar criminal defense, not political and election law.”

And that ain’t all.

The Trump re-election campaign also paid $89,561 to the Trump Corporation for legal services, just three days after the payment to Futerfas.

The records were released today so I imagine this is gonna get way worse.  Have fun and conduct your own search – it’s 4,000 pages!

Thanks to SGray for the heads up.

Want to take out some frustrations this weekend.  Thank Fenway Fran for this fun way to feel better.
