Yeah, Kinda

Customer Deb said it pretty perfect this morning.

Is it just me or does Jeff Sessions look like the Keebler elf who got fired because he refused to let the chocolate cookies mix with the vanilla cream filling?

Grab a Pencil and Figure This

Trump University settled the lawsuit (the only person who didn’t actually see that coming is Stevie Wonder) for $25,000,000.

There are 6,000 victims.

The lawyers take 40% off the top.  That leaves $15,000,000 divided by 6,000 … carry the 2, subtract the discounted settlement, add some gall and you have — ta da! $2,500 a person.

Trump tried to put the case off until after the inauguration citing the “critical and all-consuming” work the president-elect has to do before he takes office in January.

Yeah, like look up the phone numbers of the biggest racists in the country and offer them a job.

Once again, Trump crews the little guy and gets away with it.

See, this is diverse.  There’s a tall white guy, a short white guy, a skinny white guy, a chubby white guy, a bald white guy, Paul Ryan, an old white guy, another old white guy, and 5 white women.  So, there ya go. Diversity, GOP style.

 

Jefferson Beauregard Sessions From the State of Aladamnbama

Yes, the man often seen with the back of his hand held trembling to his forehead while heading for the fainting couch will be our next attorney general.

sessionsIn Name-That-Cabinet, today’s leading contender is Jefferson Beauregard Sessions, a man named after a Civil War general and President of the Confederacy, for Attorney General. Alabama’s contribution to the Build A Wall movement, Sessions was also turned down for a federal judgeship during the Reagan administration for racist statements while prosecuting African Americans in Alabama.

And to keep the fun moving right along, the Koch Brothers pet congresspoodle, was appointed CIA director.

unknown[Mike] Pompeo, 52, a third-term congressman from Kansas, was a surprise pick to lead the Central Intelligence Agency. He was on the House of Representatives intelligence and energy and commerce committees, as well as the committee investigating the 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya.

Yeah, the Benghazi committee.

He also opposes abortion even in the case of rape and said that Muslim leaders who fail to denounce acts of terrorism done in the name of Islam are “potentially complicit” in the attacks.  He thinks that Edward Snowden should be tried and then given the death penalty.

But hey, y’all, have a great weekend!

 

Who Says Donald Trump Doesn’t Have a Sense of Humor?

News:  Rick Perry is being considered for a cabinet post.  That’s not the funny part.  Here’s the funny part:

Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry is reportedly being considered for a Cabinet position as President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team seeks to solidify its list of candidates.

According to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Wednesday, Perry is now being evaluated for a potential job as Energy Secretary.

Yes, Energy Secretary – the department he couldn’t remember during his Duh moment.  Damn, Trump, that’s mean.

By the way, Perry wanted to eliminate the Department of Energy.  Well, I guess screwing it up is pretty much the same thing.

From back in the day —-

Lost and Found

November 16, 2016 By: Primo Encarnación Category: Uncategorized

Lost in Schiller Park:

An antique keepsake ring

Last Wednesday after dark

Near the baby swing

 

Lost last Saturday

Inside the roller rink

A pair of gym shoes: grey

With laces red and pink

 

Found on Wicket Hill

At Foster Ave and Sayers

A hundred dollar bill

Giving thanks and prayers

 

Lost: a Pekingese

He will answer to Slim

Please call this number -Please!

His family misses him

 

A pocket watch and chain

Was found by Parker’s Lea:

Last week after the rain

Inscription says JP

 

Lost on Tuesday last

All of our future hopes

The country of our past

Is now the charge of dopes

 

Found the other day

A reason to go on

To find another way

And beat them ‘til they’re gone.
