Thanks to BN for the heads up.

My friend Rutger just mentioned that maybe George Conway is the new Martha Mitchell.

My mouth fell open.  I think he’s right.

I have become a fan of podcasts.  I listened to Slow Burn from Slate and it’s well worth your time.  Season 1, Episode 1 of Slow Burn is entitled Martha.  I had largely forgotten about Martha Mitchell until I heard it and then suddenly, I saw that Nixon’s attempt to paint Martha as a crazy alcoholic was because she was right.  Well, that and the fact that she was a crazy alcoholic. But even alcoholics can tell the truth.

Slow Burn is well worth your time, and you’ll look at George Conway a whole different way if you remember Martha Mitchell.

Okay, I do not pick favorites this far out, but I thought you might want to see something in Texas that I haven’t seen on national news.

It’s a Beto crop circle.

It’s on a two acre plot about a mile north of the Austin airport.  It’s made with natural materials like sand, mulch, clay, rocks and pecan shells.  It is expected to last two weeks tops.

I thought it was kinda cool.

Thanks to Bryan for the heads up.

Okay, stop whatever you were doing and giggle your butt off.

Devin Nunes is suing Twitter because people are saying bad things about him on there that are causing him great pain and suffering.  No, I am not kidding.  He used those exact words.

He wants $600 million in damages.  Yeah, well, so do I but do you see me whining about Franny Sue Jackson, my competitor over at “Get Your Locks Off,” saying I give crappy haircuts?  No, I’m a proud grown up woman and I would never give Franny Sue acknowledgement that I even know who she is.

To sue somebody, you have to prove that you’ve been damaged in some way.  Wanna know the damages that Nunes claims? He says …

… that Twitter played a key role in slowing Nunes’s 2018 re-election campaign, when compared with his larger wins in previous re-election bids. The lawsuit said that Twitter allowed “fake accounts” to slander Nunes, including one by a user who claimed to be Nunes’s mother.

Oh, it hurt him so much that he didn’t win his gerrymandered district as big as he usually does, and I am certain that has nothing to do with the fact that he stole peoples’ babies, locked them in cages, and won’t give them back. Ot that he made a total horse’s patootie of himself running back and forth to the White House so they could tell him what he should do next in committee hearings.

The Twitter accounts he says ran a “defamation campaign of stunning breadth and scope, one that no human being should ever have to bear and suffer in their whole life” (seriously) include @DevinNunesMom, @DevinCow, @fireDevinNunes.

Never again should any Republican call any progressive a snowflake.

Hey Nunes – you’re a jerk and ninny. I hope that hurt like hell.

Okay, so Trump was plenty upset about the Saturday Night Live show last Saturday night.  He was so mad, in fact, that he used a double tweet.  The first tweet was just his usual whiney baby ninny cry and the second one was …… holy crap insane.

He wants Saturday Night Live investigated.

Here’s the topper.  It was a re-run. A damn rerun upset him a double-tweet worth.  Honey, he broke the seal on a brand new giant industrial sized 55-gallon drum of whine.

In case you didn’t see what upset him so much, here it is.

For 40 years, Saturday Night Live has made fun of president.  The only difference is that they read the Constitution.

This is what it looks like trying to put out the fires of hell with a garden hose.

Deer Park abuts Houston to the east.  It started in one tank about 10:30 pm last night and spread to 8 tanks overnight.  They closed area schools and told residents to shelter in place.  No injuries are reported.

They are containing the fires and letting them just burn out.  Depending on the winds, we’re going to have some nasty air for a few days.
