Well, Bannon is throwing caution to the wind over at Breitbart. Here’s a way you can kinda see most of it without having to actually go to Breitbart because you shouldn’t go there because there’s some things you can’t unsee.
Breitbart News, with former White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon back in charge, is ripping mad at President Trump after Monday’s Afghanistan speech foreshadowed an increase in ground troops.
Yeah, let’s send more troops.
How about Uday and Qusay here getting their driver to take them on down to the enlistment office?
Or maybe Jarred? I mean, LBJ’s son in law served in Vietnam while Johnson was president so it’s not like something that would be weird.
You know what would make me happy? Trump and Bannon at war. Happy dance.
Gohmert even claims there are “witnesses” who saw KKK and Black Lives Matters protesters get off the same buses in Charlottesville, implying they were simply paid actors by Democrats. Gohmert urged Trump to appoint an independent counsel to investigate Democrats, even though presidents do not, and cannot, appoint independent counsels.
Oh Honey, there’s movies. Of course there’s movies. And as a bonus, Louie explains how he could have saved America in 2005 but “they” wouldn’t listen to him.
Oh thank you, thank you, thank you for Louie Gohment who always puts things in perspective.
Cheeto Jesus made an appearance with family members today on the Truman balcony at the WH to witness the solar eclipse. Here is Trump and Melania:
So, here’s my question – Why did Trump come out to the balcony? Why did he (eventually) put on protective glasses to witness the solar eclipse? Why did he do that? How did he know what time to come out and what the proper glasses were to protect his eyes? Did he just make it up? Did an evangelical pastor give him a prophecy? Of course not; the answer to all these questions is science…astronomy, physics, math, astro-mechanics. There was no guessing about it. We knew exactly when the eclipse would happen. There was even an app that could tell people by zip code when to watch. It’s easy.
As we all know (except for a few ignorant flat earthers), the solar eclipse that transversed the entire US was predicted by scientists down to the second for each precise location where one might want to watch. Scientists and engineers also developed the precise eye protection that was manufactured by the millions to protect people’s eyes from damage due to exposure to the sun. They knew exactly what to do. In addition to all that whiz-bang, scientists have already set the date and time for the next US solar eclipse in 2024. The path is calculated, and the times are already known. That’s some bad voodoo if you ask me; or conversely, damn good science.
So, here’s the question – Why, when science and math nails the exact time and place of a solar eclipse that millions believe, that science about climate change is then dismissed out of hand? What about medical science that develops vaccines? What about immunology that predicts, calculates and fights pandemics of exotic diseases?
Donald Trump is one of the most cynical science deniers to ever occupy the WH. While believing the science that predicts solar eclipses, or being completely confident in the astro-physics that calculates targets for our nuclear arsenal, why does he deny other science? Is he stupid?
That’s easy. He is certainly stupid, but he’s also a narcissist that plays to the adoring hordes of ignorant shitheads who respond only to manure shoveled by the truckload.
Republican Representative (cringing should commence here.) Bryan Zollinger from Idaho Falls, Idaho, took to Facebook linked to an article in the American Thinker (which is neither) that it is entirely possible that Barack Obama, George Soros, Terry McAuliffe, and the mayor of Charlottesville planned the whole thing, or a “shadowy cabal involving them all.”
“The conflagration in Charlottesville is beginning to feel like a set-up, perhaps weeks or months in the planning,” the author wrote. “We know that Obama and his inner circle have set up a war room in his D.C. home to plan and execute resistance to the Trump administration and his legislative agenda.”
What else would you do in a war room except plan a demonstration?
When pressed, Bryan Zollinger took a few steps backwards …
“I’m not saying it is true, but I am suggesting that it is completely plausible,” Idaho Falls Rep. Bryan Zollinger wrote on Facebook.
Okay, I am not saying it’s true that Bryan Zollinger is a fascist loudmouth with very little education and even smaller testicles who drowns kittens for fun, but it is entirely plausible.
He is figuring out a fall (yeah, of this year) appearance schedule that will “fill his campaign bank account with tens of millions of dollars.”
He has slated trips to both Texas and New York where he says he’ll split the fundraising with the RNC. I guess the RNC will just have to trust him about that.
I am shocked, just shocked, that he has lasted this long, but my only comfort is found in knowing the rich and famous snubs are really upsetting him.

My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
