Dumber Than a Sack of Hammers

January 07, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, I have to admit that I was blissfully unaware that Donald Trump was blissfully unaware of any damn thing the federal government does.

I have now come to understand that he has no idea what a government shutdown would mean. Or what government means.

Come to find out

The Department of Housing and Urban Development sent letters to 1,500 landlords Friday as part of a last-minute effort to prevent the eviction of thousands of tenants. A lot of those tenants live in units covered by a HUD program that many agency officials didn’t realize had expired on Jan. 1 and that they are now unable to renew.

And that’s only the beginning.

The IRS and Treasury Department can’t figure out how to start providing tax refunds next month.  But, I’m sure that Steve Mnuchin can cover that out of his own pocket.

The National Park Service is suffering horrific damage to our parks and seven people have now died at National Parks.  It’s apparently Lord of the Flies out there.

And, 38 million Americans will lose access to food stamps next month.  That means children.

No damn wall.  The wall is hurtful to South Texas but most importantly, it won’t work. No damn wall.

Thanks to Deb T for the heads up.

Be social and share!

    Any guesses as to how many of those HUD buildings belong to Drumpf associates? Possible gentrification to provide high rent housing for all those anticipated Amazon employees. Or not. But there’s a buck in there for to be had by someone. Quite possibly someone named Kushner.

    Aw. Starving children and Lyin’ Ryan isn’t there to prolong the misery. Indictment? Impeachment? Or, will the UN be sending in troops to remove the despot?

  2. I’m not happy that the National Parks are “closed”, but I am disgusted by the people going in who can’t be bothered to take out their own damn trash. Americans are pigs.

  3. I am surprised that the SS, the WH chef, all of the other security staff, the senate cafeteria staff haven’t already called in “sick”. Guess they must be loyal Rump followers.

  4. Obviously, Trump thinks the way the Israelis have been treating the Palestinians in Gaza is a model for how we should treat Mexico.

  5. Let them eat wall. Dump’s Louis XIV character is on view for the hole world to see. He and Melania Antoinette may soon feel the guillotine of public opinion over their clueless heads.

  6. Sorry, should be “whole” world. My w keeps sticking.

    The newest and most profitable industries could soon be rope and portable guillotines.

  8. If you’ll recall the reason that Bob Woodward’s latest book is titled ‘Fear’, I think that right now 45 and the flying @$$monkeys are at peak performance.

    They have created overwhelming fear for millions, and no kowtowing in sight. The sad part is that malfeasance isn’t required, incompetence fueled by partisan desire is enough…

  9. Looks like SOBOTUS is going to make a visit to McAllen in South Texas on Thursday. You know, the ICE/BPS place on 23rd St., one of those “cages” places.
    I’ll guarantee that he’ll be making a nearby side trip to a little wide spot down south on US Highway 281 named Runn, TX, now known as “Camp Donna”(now piled high with razor wire) for a photo op ‘on the border’. This will play very well with the MAGAots and trumpanzees.
    The place where many of those ‘temporary’ troops were deployed to before the November elections as part of one of RAT45’s recent diversionary ploys. Y’all remember, one of the places to ‘combat’ those attacking “caravans” of terrists, who sort of disappeared after election day.
    A totally trumped up way to waste a couple of hundred millions of taxpayer dollars as a feckless campaign event. Let’s ask Nancy Pelosi how that worked out…

    MaryElle your w comment made me laugh. Way back in the Vic20 days every time I’d strike an 8 it would come out 89. I finally looked closer- one of the kids had dropped some peanut butter between the keys.

    And who else will be watching ANYTHING besides the faux pres’ address on Wednesday?

    NO DAMN’D WALL. Not now, not EVER!

  13. @ BillR – Agree. I see photos of refugee camps – people with bare basics, living under tarps. Relatively clean camps. Then I think of Americans running out to poop and throw trash on the ground in the national parks and think “WTH???”

    @ Papa – from what I recollect, there is no WH chef. The last one quit after the Individual One just wanted McDonald cheeseburgers – and I don’t think was ever replaced.

  14. Okay, LET ME UP!
    Snort laugh: “It’s apparently Lord of the Flies out there!”

    (If you’re going to a National Park during this winter of Shitgibbon’s discontent, you deserve to be chased through the forest by screaming teenagers!)
