Have you noticed that Trump’s hissy fits, name-calling, and general egotistical behavior are rubbing off on Bill Barr?

I swear you could stick a pin in Barr and he’d fly around the room backwards for two or three days making exhaust noises and smelling up the air with haughty in three zip codes.

The latest?  The lawyers in his own justice department are pre-schoolers when they disagree with him.  Well yeah, you know, turning guns on peaceful protestors in the front of the White House might put your legal acumen in question, Barr.

“Name one successful organization or institution where the lowest level employees’ decisions are deemed sacrosanct, there aren’t. There aren’t any letting the most junior members set the agenda. It might be a good philosophy for a Montessori preschool, but it is no way to run a federal agency.”

Yeah, tell us how to run a federal agency, Bill, because we have never seen one run well under Trump. They have all been infested with cronyism and corruption at the top so if we don’t believe you, Master Barr, pull Stephen Miller out of your butt and mosey on down the road. You can leave your floppy shoes behind, because I feel sure that they will fit the next court jester, too.

And get this —

“You know, putting a national lockdown, stay at home orders, is like house arrest. Other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history,” Barr said as a round of applause came from the crowd.

Oh, it’s going to be worse than that, Bill.  We’re going demand that people wear face masks in public.  As we approach 200,000 dead from doing it your way, Bill, I’m wondering about life, liberty, and happiness?  Is the life part unimportant?

Besides, conservatives do not get to lecture liberals about civil liberties. Don’t I have a civil liberty right to protest in front of the White House, Bill, without being hit, shoved, threatened, gassed and come damn close to having something sprayed on me that makes my skin feel like it’s on fire?  But there you were, waddling across the street with your boyfriend, watching civil liberties on the business end of  nightstick.

You’re an egg sucking dog, Bill Barr.

And your calmness in the face of women having forced hysterectomies with God only knows how many complications and deaths, is truly impressive.  We’re the United States, Bill, and we’re supposed to protect everybody’s civil liberties.  We may have had the right to send the immigrants back to Mexico but we absolutely do not have the right to rip their children from them and put them in cages, and then perform mystery unnecessary surgeries on them.

What the hell is wrong with your soul, Bill Barr?

I have more to say but I’ve run out of words and my fingers are tired.  I can assure you that I’m not finished.

A note to the secret service.  If Bill Barr refuses to leave the White House after the election, I have access to a front loader.  I just wanted you guys to know that, and that I’d be willing to drive it.

Y’all, the Scientific American magazine has made their first ever political endorsement.

The endorsement is fact based and relatively calm but devastating.

“His administration has been even worse for science than we feared,” Scientific American Editor-in-Chief Laura Helmuth told HuffPost in an email. “We couldn’t include all of our objections to his record in two print pages.”

I dunno, I guess I’d have to agree with him being even worse than I expected. I said he was going to get us all killed. I just didn’t know that he was also going to cook us and eat us.

Thanks to Epp for the heads up.

The GOP Senate candidate in Delaware doesn’t just believe in QAnon, Lauren Witzke also believes the earth is flat and that Trump should be president for life.

With her victory still just hours old, the newest Republican Senate nominee publicly thanked a white nationalist leader who marched in the “Unite the Right” rally and has questioned the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust.

She also claims that she used to be a “low level drug runner” for the Mexican cartels, She claims that Trump’s win inspired her get off drugs and become a Republican “political operative.”  Think about it, though, Mexican drug runner and Republican political operative aren’t that far apart and require the same skill set. I mean, in both you force people to take things that will actually kill them but they thank you for doing it.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Democrats in the Oregon State Senate could not reach a quorum to vote on a climate change bill because 11 Republican state senators walked out of the senate and some even left the state.  The Republicans could stop the debate and the vote, but they could not stop climate change.

Fred Girod was one of those senators. He refused to come back to the senate for a full month.  So the cap and trade bill never got a discussion or a vote.

Fred Girod’s house burned down.

Girod, a 69-year-old state senator, made an impromptu trip Sunday into his sprawling district that includes many of the most hard-hit areas decimated by wildfires that have now burned more than 1 million acres across the state and killed at least 10 people.

‘It hurts,’ Girod said, hands in his dark denim jeans.”

Well, damn, it’s the first time Girod’s hands have been in his own pockets.

Thanks to Larry for the heads up.

The Stephanopoulos town hall will be taught in both political science classes and abnormal psychology.

I think it’s interesting how normal, every day people were more apt to press Trump than reporters do.  People are not afraid of him like reporters are.

Trump told George Stephanopoulos of ABC News that he has a new heath care plan ready to unveil:

TRUMP: I have it all ready. I have it all ready.

STEPHANOPOULOS: But it’s … you’ve been trying to strike down preexisting conditions…

TRUMP: It doesn’t matter. I have it all ready, and it’s a much better plan for you, and it’s a much better plan.

Trust him, believe him, it’s a much better plan for George Stephanopoulos. Although I doubt even that.

One thing you can say about Trump.  He does not feel anyone’s pain.

Top HHS spokesman Michael Caputo, who proved himself to be a crazy man last weekend, called an emergency staff meeting on this afternoon to apologize for acting like a damn fool on Facebook Live.

On Sunday, Caputo took to Facebook Live to level a series of wild and false accusations that warned of an armed insurrection after the election and asserted without evidence that public health officials were trying to undermine Trump’s reelection bid.

I dunno, telling people that they better start clipping coupons for ammo …“

And when Donald Trump refuses to stand down at the inauguration, the shooting will begin. The drills that you’ve seen are nothing… If you carry guns, buy ammunition, ladies and gentlemen, because it’s going to be hard to get.”

He blamed his behavior on a combination of physical health issues and the toll of fielding death threats against his family. So this bozo thinks he’s the only person getting death threats in America?  Maybe he’d like to be a black father who lost his job and is going to be evicted from his home during a pandemic.  Or maybe just a nurse or a school teacher who face death every damn day.

Or maybe he thinks threatening to shoot people at the inauguration is the nice and polite way of treating your fellow Americans.

This guy doesn’t need to be fired. He needs to be locked up.
