Okay, so today Steve Bannon spoke at CPAC and reassured everybody that everything is hunky dory at the White House.  Really.  Seriously. Just fine. Fit as a fiddle.

Bannon, along with White House chief of staff Reince Priebus, spoke Thursday at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in their latest attempt to dispel notions that they are combative rivals fighting for power in the West Wing.

“I can run a little hot,” Bannon said. “The only way this thing works is that Reince is very steady.”

Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap.

Are you telling me that the only thing standing between me and total nuclear Armageddon is Reinse Priebus?

We’re gonna all die.

Look, all I can figure is that he grabbed Bannon by the pussy and is now being extorted.

The New York Times, tucked neatly in a long story so that most people will overlook it.

Mr. Priebus bristles at the perception that he occupies a diminished perch in the West Wing pecking order compared with previous chiefs. But for the moment, Mr. Bannon remains the president’s dominant adviser, despite Mr. Trump’s anger that he was not fully briefed on details of the executive order he signed giving his chief strategist a seat on the National Security Council, a greater source of frustration to the president than the fallout from the travel ban.

(Italics are mine because I can’t stop reading that sentence over and over and over.)

Wait a minute. Are they saying that Bannon put himself on the National Security Council?  Without Trump’s permission? And that Trump has no idea what he’s signing? Hellfire, even Radar O’Reilly didn’t have the gall to do that.

On another topic: I know you’re not supposed to make fun of the way people look.  But, Bannon looks like he smells bad.  And you get the idea that he’s not just a slob himself but that he’s a slob at home, too.  I will bet you my best pair of pink boots that the worst job in America is the cleaning crew at Bannon’s home. I shiver just thinking about it.

Somebody needs to send this guy back to Breitbart and the subhuman culture over there where people don’t pick their noses and wipe it on their dinner napkin.

Thanks to Deb for the heads up.

So I think we have a slight problem.

There’s a tiff between Congressman John Lewis and alleged President-Elect Donald Trump.

Reince Priebus says the whole thing is just awful and it needs fixing.

Reince Priebus tells NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Obama should “step up” and “call it what it is – it’s wrong what is happening, it’s wrong how some of these Democrats are treating President-elect Trump.”

So, Reince needs Obama’s help?  Yeah, I am certain that Trump can count on President Obama to help him with this illegitimate president thing.  After all, Donald Trump personally gave President Obama a whole lot of experience with that.

So I heard that the Ringling Brothers, Barnum, and Bailey’s Circus is closing down after 168 years.  They knew they couldn’t compete with the Trump administration.

Thanks to Carl for the heads up.

New Appointments to Lead White House Staff

Yesterday, Cheeto Jesus appointed his two top strategists for the coming January 20th Apocalypse.  What was striking about these appointments was not only their similarity – they’re both well known pigs; but also their differences – outside pig versus inside pig.  The outside pig is Steve Bannon, CEO of that den of serial liars called Breitbart “News”; the inside pig is RNC chairman and serial loudmouth, Reince Priebus.  Cheeto Jesus couldn’t have chosen a worse pair to run the White House except for maybe someone like Hannibal Lector or Freddy Krueger.  The choice of these two characters is shocking, but not surprising.
