The biggest state NRA donations.  Texas, of course.

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

 

Just a Shiver Looking for a Spine to Run Up

Do you want to know who really scares me?  Jared.  Jared Kushner scares me.

According to a new Politico Magazine report, Kushner showed little interest in maintaining long-standing U.S. alliances, especially in Western Europe.

“He told me, ‘I’m a businessman, and I don’t care about the past. Old allies can be enemies, or enemies can be friends,’ so the past doesn’t count,” one official told the magazine. “I was taken aback. It was frightening.”

Jared gets to see Trump’s daily intelligence briefings. Then he uses them to help himself to more money.

He looks creepy, he walks creepy, and he talks creepy.  Yes he’s a guy who has manipulated and outmaneuvered every other prize winning jerk Trump brought into the White House.

Thank God Mueller is investigating him. I want to see him cuffed with Ivanka running after him in her $2,000 shoes and her very tacky purse.

I am an evil person.

 

Well, Sex and Guns All In One Neat Package

Bob Simonson is the police chief in Amanosa, Iowa, and fancies himself a real man’s man.

The city of Amanosa recently had to pay a $750,000 settlement to a former police officer.

Former Anamosa police officer Amy Ford this week shared some emails sent by Simonson with KCRG in which he made multiple crude and racist comments that included “a joke making fun of Asian accents and likens a sexual position to a Chinese food menu.” According to Ford, the emails were sent to officers in the department as well as to at least one member of Amanosa’s city council.

So there you have the sex part.  The gun part is that he recently shot himself in the foot, literally, with an AR15 slung over his shoulder in that real tough guy kind of way.  It went off and shot his own damn foot.

So now you have both the sex and the gun part.  Here’s the unbelievable part:  he still has a job.  Nope, he has not been fired.

Here’s Ole Bob.

 

I guess he still has the AK15.

Thanks to Pia for the heads up.

I’ll Give You An Answer

Donald Trump had another Tweet Fit this morning.  Here’s just one of them concerning a  Washington Post story.  It’s a damn shame that his thumbs don’t corrode.

 

“Who would do this in a public place with live security?”

I dunno, maybe a guy who owns the security cameras?

I dunno, maybe a guy who grabs women by the you know what?

Here’s the part of all this that makes me so mad that if I didn’t sweat, I’d catch fire.  This is a guy who sold an American election to the Russians, showed no interest at all in governing, sold cabinet positions to people he full well knew were going to fail while ripping off taxpayers of what probably amounts to millions of dollars, allowed his son-in-law to view top security without a clearance and then use that information to enrich himself, tried to destroy every news organization except Fox and Friends, and I’m not even warmed-up yet.

But, it is going to be s-e-x that brings him down.  I hate that America is that stoopid.

 

“We Call B.S.”

February 19, 2018 By: El Jefe Category: Fun With Guns

“The people in the government who were voted into power are lying to us. And us kids seem to be the only ones who notice and are prepared to call B.S.

“Companies, trying to make caricatures of the teen-agers nowadays, saying that all we are are self-involved and trend-obsessed and they hush us into submissions when our message doesn’t reach the ears of the nation, we are prepared to call B.S.

“Politicians who sit in their gilded House and Senate seats funded by the N.R.A., telling us nothing could ever be done to prevent this: we call B.S.

“They say that tougher gun laws do not prevent gun violence: we call B.S.”

“They say a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun: we call B.S.

“They say guns are just tools, like knives, and are as dangerous as cars: we call B.S.

“They say that no laws would have been able to prevent the hundreds of senseless tragedies that occur: we call B.S.

“That us kids don’t know what we’re talking about, that we’re too young to understand how the government works.” The crowd was now in a frenzy of anger and sadness, the people around me tearing up as they yelled, “We call B.S.”

And then, in unison, the people gathered began to chant, “Vote them out, vote them out, vote them out.”

Oh No! Now He’s Done It. He Rigged the Miss Universe Pageants.

I’m not joking.  There’s pretty convincing evidence that Trump rigged the Miss Universe contest to favor countries where he had business dealings.

I know.  Shocking.  Hey, if you lost money on the Miss Universe outcome, you ought to sue him.

“He made comments about every girl: ‘I’ve been to that country.’ ‘We’re building a Trump Tower there,’” said Canadian former contestant Adwoa Yamoah. “It was clear the countries that he liked did well. He’d whisper to Paula about the girls, and she’d write it down. He basically told us he picked nine of the top fifteen.”

And there’s also a pageant judge who says Trump was the damn judge.

And one judge at the pageant told Toobin that he was floored when saw that several of the women he and his fellow judges had picked as finalists did not make it to the official list of winners, as Trump apparently intervened to override their decisions.

Colluding with Russia is one thing, but rigging the Miss Universe contest is a whole ‘nother thing.

Thank you to everybody for the heads up.
