Okay, the first headline from CNBC.

And another one from today the Dallas Morning News.

Yes, Trump is coming tomorrow night at the height of the Coronavirus surge.

President Trump plans to announce a plan for “holistic revitalization and recovery” during a trip to Dallas on Thursday built around a high-dollar fundraising dinner expected to bring in $10 million.

All it’s gonna take is one sick waiter because you know Trump is not going to allow social distancing to make his crowd look smaller and none of the sumbitches will wear a mask.

I do not know what holistic revitalization is, but anytime I hear revitalization, I know some poor people are gonna get screwed. And since Trump is announcing it in front of very rich people, even the middle class will get screwed.

I guess by now most of you are semi-familiar with Texas Republican Congressman Dan Crenshaw.  The only thing you probably know is that he’s the guy with an eye patch from a war injury while he was a Navy SEAL.

You don’t know him for doing or saying anything while in congress because he doesn’t do diddle squat and says even less. He called the peaceful demonstration in front of the White House “a riot” and said it had to stop immediately. That’s all. He was overly concerned about a man’s death or even police tactics but the resulting riots were a national disgrace. He was not picked as a SEAL for his intelligence.

Anyway, the reason we’re going to take about him today is that the FEC wanted to know why Dan spent a large sum of money for “artwork” for his office.

The address listed is a Houston law firm but there’s no lawyer named “Turren” working there.

Hummmmmm….

Through the magic of modern Googleism, we were able to find artiste Kenneth Turren.

Yes, he will paint your family with Christ, and even make Christ look a little stoned.

I wanna see what Dan bought and see how he explains the check to the law firm.

Donald Trump has not enjoyed a cordial relationship with any of the Bushes.

Well, except for one and even other family members say he’s the dumb one.  George P Bush, son of a Jeb, is the Texas Land Commissioner (Rick Perry’s former job) and he’s certain that Trump is doing a great job.

“President Trump is the only thing standing between America and socialism,” the younger Bush said in response to an inquiry from The News, also confirming that he plans to formally endorse Trump.

Yeah, socialism.  Screw 110,000 people dying, thirteen days of record-breaking marches in the streets, and economy that’s only working for the very, very rich – screw all that because Joe Biden is just dripping socialism juice left over from the Obama administration, who George P also said was a socialist.

Dude, Trump makes your Uncle W look competent. Hey, only 1,800 people died in Katrina.

The Washington Post has put together video and a timeline of what happened in Lafayette Park to the protestors.

Let there be truth.

Barr is now denying it was a photo op.  And, I suspect, that Trump had the largest inauguration crowd ever in the history of the world.

You want job security?  Go to work at CREW – Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.  They’ve got plenty to do, my friend.

Turns out that Jared and Ivanka are teaming up and finding some helpful family budget hacks.

Hey, there’s only six months left to steal everything they can.

Thanks to Harold for the heads up.

Martha McSally is running for US Senate out in Arizona.  She must be having a tough time raising money because her WinRed (the opposite of Democrat’s ActBlue) does something unusual.

Usually if you want to make your contribution monthly, you have to take the action of clicking the box that says “Make this monthly.”

McSally checked that box for you.  Most people don’t even notice so they end up making a monthly contribution without even knowing it. Mostly, that pisses people off.

McSally does not care.  But she might need to because Ted Cruz got his hand slapped for doing the same thing.

But, ya gotta kinda a little bit feel sorry for McSally. She’s running against a damn astronaut.  Yeah, Mark Kelly.

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