Made Me Smile

Trump just tweeted this.

 

 

Two things: So we just polled the current customers and staff at the World’s Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc. and it shows that when asked, “Should Donald Trump be dropped buck ass nakkid into Mexico with ‘I steal children’ tattooed on his chest?” the answer was 107% yes. However, since we let Junior Janchek, Jr. do the math, the margin of error is only 4%.

 

Nut Job Commits A Felony To Avoid Filing Reports That Would Reveal He’s A Nut Job

October 03, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

Please meet Congressfool Mark Meadows from North Carolina. He’s a nut job. He’s also chairman of the Freedom Caucus. I do not know which came first – the nut or the caucus. It’s one of those chicken and egg things.

Meadows believes that dinosaurs and Jesus had a relationship.  Yep, he’s a creationist and has been dabbling in real estate where dinosaur bones have been found.

Three years ago, the North Carolina congressman Mark Meadows sold a hundred-and-thirty-four-acre property in Dinosaur, Colorado. The buyer was Answers in Genesis, a Christian nonprofit based in Kentucky, which was founded by the Australian creationist Ken Ham. Answers in Genesis is dedicated to promoting young-Earth creationism, which holds that the Earth was created in six days, several thousand years ago.

The selling price was about $200,000, which does not seem extraordinary. However, Meadows did not claim the extra income on his congressional financial disclosure.  He’s a three term senator. He knows the rules. This wasn’t an accident or ignorance.

Public Citizen has filed a request for an investigation and includes this ..

Public Citizen further requests that the Clerk of the House investigate whether Meadows has a history of failing to report his investments and transactions. According to Brett Kappel, a campaign finance lawyer quoted in the news story, “[t]here appear to have been multiple reporting violations that occurred over a long period of time” by Meadows.

Oops – one cover-up can unearth a lot of problems.

Well, I don’t know what I expected differently. He’s one of Trump’s closest allies in congress. And, you know about that swamp thing Trump’s got going.

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

Trump Asks China to Open an Investigation of the Bidens

October 03, 2019 By: El Jefe

Just moments ago, Trump brazenly asked China to open an investigation of the Bidens for supposed corruption.  That’s right, he’s just opened another front in the impeachment inquiry that started last week caused by his call to Ukranian president Zelensky as him to did dirt on the Bidens.  The corruption is breathtaking, and it’s clear that Trump truly believes that he can violate any law and smear any person with impunity simply because he is president.  This is beyond Nixon.  Even though Nixon also believed that by definition US presidents can’t commit crimes he clearly had some modicum of shame and when the reality of an actual removal vote being taken, he resigned.  Trump has no shame and has convinced himself that he is truly above the law and can essentially do anything he wants to cheat his way into another term.  If he’s willing to do that, who’s to say that he would actually leave office if defeated, or even at the end of a second term?

We’re now beyond the tipping point and Trump MUST be removed from office with great haste.  That’s going to require invertebrates in the Senate, including our own John Cornyn and Ted Cruz to change their spots from cowards to courageous.  And having witnessed both of them will to permanently damage their own legacies to support this criminal, that is by no means a certainty.

Because It’s The Truth, Dammit!

October 02, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

Y’all, where would this country, nay this world, be without Geraldo Rivera? There, right there, is a man who seeks out the truth and speaks it.

So, here’s the headline:

Geraldo explains – some of his verbal bursts are admissions of Trump’s guilt so watch closely —

“In Nixon’s case, if he had someone that stuck up for him, he wouldn’t have been motivated to cover up that burglary, he would’ve let the perpetrators get their just desserts,” added Mr. Rivera.

So, he’s admitting that the underlying crime is about the same, but that Trump doesn’t have to do a cover-up because – ta da! – he has Sean Hannity and Sean Hannity alone on his side, which, coincidentally, is exactly same reason why Tump is having to do a cover-up.

Here’s the best part:

“Everything you say is absolutely true,” Mr. Rivera responded, “But watching your show and watching your producers work and seeing these packages where you put the lie exactly to what they’re saying — who else is doing that? The nation is being fed this constant stream of propaganda and impeachment. Some of these people have been calling for his impeachment from the microsecond he was elected. This is an absolute all-out war. This is politics by another name. This is warfare directed at the president, and they won’t give him a breath of air. You’ve got to watch his back.”

Geraldo isn’t getting laid enough.

 

When Sprinkling Just Won’t Do

October 02, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

Okay, this story comes out to Tennessee, the birthplace of many a high IQ tales. This story is contained in a recently filed lawsuit.

Back about last February between 10 – 11 pm, Shandle Marie Riley dropped by a convenience store and bought some cigarettes and gas.  She then drove to a friend’s home where her minor daughter was visiting.

Shandle Riley

Deputy Daniel Wilkey had followed her from the convenience store to the driveway of the friend’s home. Deputy Wilkey ordered Shandle out of her car and told her that he believed she possessed methamphetamines.

According to Shandle, Deputy Wilkey searched “every area of her body,” including asking her to reach under her shirt “and pull out her bra and shake the bra and shirt.”  Shandle requested that a female officer be present for this but Wilkey said that wasn’t required.

This story hasn’t even gotten weird yet.

Deputy Wilkey asked if Shandle had anything illegal in her car. She admitted that she had a “roach” in a pack of cigarettes and gave it to him. He continued the search but found nothing.

He then asked her if she was saved and believed in Jesus.

Okay, it’s starting to get weird.

The lawsuit goes on to say Wilkey told Riley that “God was talking to him during the vehicle search, and [he] felt the Lord wanted him to baptize the plaintiff.,” and said that he felt “the spirit.”

Wilkey then told Riley to get towels inside the home for a baptism, and said he would issue her only a criminal citiation for marijuana and not take her to jail, according to the lawsuit. Riley says she got the towels, and followed Wilkey in his patrol car, not saying where he was taking her. Riley says she was afraid to ignore Wilkey and not do as he commanded.

So he takes her to the closest lake and asked another male deputy to meet them there, explaining that they needed a witness for the baptism to be “valid.”

The lawsuit says Wilkey then stripped down to his boxer shorts, and gave Riley the option to remove her clothes, which she declined. It says Wilkey then led her to waist deep, cold water, put one hand on her back and the other on her breasts, and submerged her underwater for “several moments.” At this moment, Riley says she “felt horribly violated.”

And totally creeped out, I imagine.

Wilkey issued her a citation for a tinted window violation and license tag obstruction, and says she admitted to having “a joint” in her car.

He didn’t mention the baptism.

The boys …

 

 

I don’t know this for a fact, but I think they need to pay for this story that they tell on every deer hunt, football game, bar hopping, and cop reunion.

The lawsuit is seeking $1,000,000 in compensatory damages and $10,000,000 in punitive damages. That sounds about fair.

One Big Fuzzy White Cat Away From Being A Bond Villian

October 02, 2019 By: Juanita Jean Herownself

Or maybe he’s going to call his flying monkeys.

Y’all, I was totally creeped out by Trump’s ideas about how to torture migrants. I think he made the fence where you can see through it so he could watch people getting eaten by alligators and bitten by snakes.  How did he forget piranhas?  Or a batch of flesh eating viruses?

“Privately, the president had often talked about fortifying a border wall with a water-filled trench, stocked with snakes or alligators, prompting aides to seek a cost estimate. He wanted the wall electrified, with spikes on top that could pierce human flesh. After publicly suggesting that soldiers shoot migrants if they threw rocks, the president backed off when his staff told him that was illegal. But later in a meeting, aides recalled, he suggested that they shoot migrants in the legs to slow them down. That’s not allowed either, they told him.”

How ’bout we get a whole bunch of bowling balls and play a Knock Down A Migrant And Win a Prize game?

I think when his staff ruined all his fun about the spikes, the alligators, the kneecap shooting, and the electrification is when Trump came up with the idea to take their children away from them and put them in prisons where they’ll never see their parents again.  Which, in my mind, is the cruelest torture of all.

I’m so glad Trump is a Christian and protects Christian values — just imagine if he wasn’t.
