There was a big boat parade today on Lake Travis to support Trump. What you would expect to happen when a bunch of drunk Trump supporters board boats has happened. The Travis County sheriff is reporting “many boats in distress” and “several boats have sunk.”
Yes, I spit my Kentucky Derby mint julep all over my keyboard laughing at this one…LOL.

The White House has ordered all federal agencies to halt diversity training. That’s right, folks, Trump has ordered that all training sessions about fighting systemic racism and white privilege in federal agencies, calling it “divisive” and “un-American”. Russell Vought, the director of OMB, said, “The President has directed me to ensure that federal agencies cease and desist from using taxpayer dollars to fund these divisive, un-American propaganda training sessions.”
Of course, since the money has been appropriated and the contracts let, Trump can’t just arbitrarily cancel them. So, what will happen is that taxpayer money will be spent and no training will occur. Why is Trump doing this? To whip up his last remaining base, racist pigs who hate everyone and everything, of course. Trump has already pissed off small business owners, large business owners, doctors, nurses, scientists, , public health officials, teachers, and union workers; now he’s alienated members of the military, Blue Star families and Gold Star families. Apparently all that’s left is Russian gangsters and bigoted mouth breathers waving Nazi and Confederate flags.
He’s finally found his base of last resort.
This will not make one hill of beans difference to those QAnon people or to Trump’s supporters because, after all, he can shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and they’d still support him.
As first reported by the Atlantic and later confirmed in part by other media outlets, including The Washington Post, Trump said wounded veterans should not march in a military parade and canceled his visit to a French cemetery for American Marines killed in World War I because he had no interest in honoring his country’s war dead.
I think it’s amusing that he wants to honor the Confederacy with monuments when, in actual fact, they are treasonous losers. I guess he’ll identify with them even more after election day.
You’ve done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?

So there’s this dude from Louisiana who got himself elected to congress who has a full blown case of dumber than bean dip. His name is Clay Higgins, he’s a Republican, and he just swam over to the other side of Lake Rational.
A Louisiana congressman’s Facebook post promising the use of force against armed protesters has been removed from the social media platform, prompting a response from the congressman that “America is being manipulated into a new era of government control.”
Okay, first off, Facebook is absolutely not the government. I looked it up.
Second off, who the hell tarnation does this bozo think “the government” is right now? It’s Donald Trump, your hero. Good Lord, Gator Breath, you picked him.
What had Cloggedhead Higgins so upset is a picture of some black people with long guns – you know, the same kind that Higgins’ white friends take everywhere they go including to the dentist. But, black people having second amendment rights has not been approved yet in Higgins’ America. So, he wrote …
“If this shows up, we’ll consider the armed presence a real threat. We being We, the people, of Louisiana.”
Well, probably not the black people. They’ll be circling around the back to get you from the rear. No, I just made that up to scare Congressman Webbed Foot. That’s not gonna happen. But, Wiggins is not finished telling you how the cow is gonna eat the cabbage.
The post goes on to say such protesters should “Have your affairs in order” and that “I’d drop any 10 of you where you stand.”
Damn, this fool of man thinks he can count to ten.
This is absolutely not Higgins first trip on Whackymobile to the Land of Odd. Check this out.
He has periodically stirred controversy with social media posts since his 2016 election to Congress. For instance, he drew widespread censure in 2017 for a post that followed a deadly terror attack in London.
“The free world … all of Christendom … is at war with Islamic horror,” Higgins wrote, going on to say of terrorists: “Hunt them, identify them, and kill them. Kill them all. For the sake of all that is good and righteous. Kill them all.”
I see he’s been reading Trump’s Bible again.
By the way, this Holy Man is on his 4th wife.
Thanks to Joyce for the heads up.
I see headlines like this in my local newspaper …
… and little spittle things start to form in the corners of my mouth.
I dunno. I think I have the opposite of whatever QAnon is. I don’t trust the Shallow State. I mean, you couldn’t call anything Trump thinks up “deep,” and Trump clearly thought up the new CDC. He pushed out anybody with even a junior high knowledge of science or anyone who rolled their eyes when he suggested injecting yourself with Barkeeper’s Friend or some damn thing. Little known fact: That’s why Dr Deborah Brix always wore a Hermès scarf, so you couldn’t see her gulping when Trump dispensed medical advice.
I just have a nagging thought that the week before election Trump is going to announce they have a vaccine and it will be ready the day after election. However, Lex Luthor has it locked in a lab in Omaha, Nebraska, and Trump’s the only person with Superman’s phone number. Trump swears he will release his own tax returns and Superman’s phone number if he wins the election. That’s the Shallow State. That’s where we live now.
Okay, when Dr. Fauci tells me to go get a shot, I’m rolling up my sleeve. When he says a vaccine is on the way, I’m putting on my shoes. But, I ain’t dancing around beating the soup spoon on the bottom of the kettle until Dr. Fauci tells me to.
Guys, I’m considering a group called Ythehell? It’s like QAnon except people are willing to use their names and we will claim things you can prove. And think about this, maybe the Deep State was what made government work.
Whatever it was, it ain’t working worth flip now.
