Senator John Kennedy went on CNN to add dignity and honor due the United States Senate under Republican rule by mocking House Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal.

Said Kennedy —

“Chairman Neal, powerful man, head of Ways and Means, I know he’s an adult, but I don’t think he’s like a real adult. He says that he needs Trump’s tax returns, he says it’s policy not politics.”

“I can’t believe he really thinks the American people are going to fall for that. It must really suck to be that dumb.”

Spoken like a real adult.

I want you to meet Bo Michael Dresner, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Hays County (between Austin and San Antonio) Republican Party and Republican precinct chair for precinct 336.  Bo is 40 years old and has voted in every Republican primary since 2010 and I know that because I looked it up.

Well, Bo got himself arrested for aggravated sexual assault of a child.

“Bo Michael Dresner was booked into the Hays County Jail on April 3 and had not been released as of press time,” the newspaper noted.

Dresner is being held on $250,000 bond.

“The affidavit also states that Child Protective Services (CPS) Investigator Alexandra Rodriguez removed four children from Dresner’s custody on March 28,” the paper explained. “County court records show that there were three CPS cases filed on March 29 regarding the custody of four children in which Dresner was named as a party.”

The abuse may have gone back seven years.

Well, you can hardly blame Ole Bo.  He has such a fine role model in the White House.

Several of you asked me why the website was showing as not secure.  That’s because it lacked something called SSL and was simply warning you not to enter your credit card number. Since we don’t take online payment – and when I ask you for political donations I send you to another secure website – I didn’t really need it and certainly didn’t want to pay for it.

Well, Anna the Geek found that she could get me one for free through my web host.  She installed it and it’s up and running today.  Everybody thank Anna for your peace of mind.

So, now we are all safe and secure.

Breitbart columnist Kris Kobach, who President Trump is considering appointing as his administration’s “immigration tsar,” suggested on Fox Business that creating “camps” for asylum seekers in the United States is such a brilliant idea.

He tells Lou Dobbs right there on teevee …

Number two, and this is deploy dozens of immigration judges as well as a fleet of passenger planes, and the thousands of empty mobile home trailers that the United States owns right now and is attempting to sell at bargain prices on the internet.

Instead of selling them, deploy them to the border cities, and create processing towns that are confined, and so when someone comes in and falsely claims asylum, we don’t release them for six months onto the streets of the United States.

We process them right there, in that camp, where they have the three square meals, they’re living in a nice mobile home, and then as soon as they’re done, as soon as the claim is rejected, they’re on the next plane back home, and then the people back home suddenly realize ‘Hey he just left here two weeks ago, and yet he’s back, maybe going in these caravans isn’t such a great deal anymore.’ So let’s process the claims right there at the border and not release these people into the United States where they just disappear.

The Dobbs jumps in, “And thirdly, bring all of that unused government property to use, effectively and at very little cost, if not no cost, in fact, to the Department of Homeland Security.”

It’s free.  Because we only give them three squares a day.  Not actual food – just three big cardboard squares a day. Eat ’em, wear ’em, raise them as pets, we don’t care. And we’re not going to have security because we’re building a wall around the place and Mexico is going to pay for it.

It has come to my attention that to sell any idea to Fox viewers, all you have to tell them is that it’s gonna hurt other people a whole lot, and it’s free, free, free!

Okay, I want you to meet two upstanding men in Arkansas.

Charles Ferris is 50 years old, and Chris Hicks is 36.  They are friends. Ferris describes himself as an Evangelical Anglican priest. He is the founder of a Knights Templar-inspired church.  I do not know what Hicks does for a living but I suspect it is equally distinguished.

Last Sunday they were drinking on the porch in Bentonville, Arkansas. Ferris had a bullet proof vest and a .22-caliber semi-automatic rifle so he suggested that they test the vest. Now you know right here that this is not going to turn out well, right?

Ferris on the left, Hicks on the right

Ferris owns the vest so he went first. So Hicks shot him in the chest and the vest worked but Ferris said it hurt like the dickens. He had a large bruise on his chest.  Hicks went next and Reverend Ferris “said he was angry about getting shot, and he ‘unloaded the clip’ with the remaining five rounds into Hicks’ back, according to the affidavit. None of the rounds penetrated the vest.”

But the best part comes now.

Ferris on better days

Later that night Ferris was still hurting, and apparently whining, so his wife suggested he go to the hospital.  When he got the hospital, they notified authorities about a gunshot. Ferris, who I remind you is a man of God, told authorities that he was paid $200 to protect “an asset” and that he was shot six times by a man in a white suit while guarding his charge at Hobbs State Park.

You’d think the case would be closed right there but the cops, being cops, were suspicious.

About that time, Ferris’ wife shows up at the hospital and spills the beans. The newspaper didn’t say this but you kinda get the idea that she’s ready to shoot him without the vest. I think he’s spending all their money on being a Vestment Queen.

To his credit, Ferris said he lied to protect Hicks. You know, the man he just shot in the back five times.

They were both arrested, made bond, and will be arraigned in May 13.

Thanks to Claudia for the heads up.
