Friday rag and bone shop

  Others are fleeing the Leader -- CEOs, arts types, Senator Scott -- while charities cancel their fundraising events at Xanadu Mar-a-Lago, but who is sticking like Gorilla Glue?  These guys.  The evangelical pastors sent by you-know-who to lead Trump in the path of righteousness.  Or in some cases, to call his racist rant "bold" and "truthful" (Jerry Falwell, Jr.).  Is it because they rely on him to facilitate their plans to Make America Medieval Again?  Sure, but Pence would do it far more energetically, even joyously.  It seems clear that these religion hucksters recognize Trump's superior skills and want to learn from him.  For example, when they branch out into "education" they do it with brick-and-mortar institutions like Bob Jones and Liberty University.  Trump University fleeced the suckers with nothing but a couple of DVDs and a binder full of glossy pamphlets.  Truly he is the Son of Professor Harold Hill!  Also, what if he were to leave politics and get into the religion business himself?  The faithful have only so much they can tithe from their wages at the Piggly Wiggly.  Competition is bad for the soul.  Let us pray.

Storm Front is again homeless, having been kicked off its Russian server.  It seems the country has a law prohibiting "hate speech."  Lousy commies. 

Save September 16, Washingtonians.  The Rightzis promise the "mother of all rallies" in your city, and the Juggalo Family (disciples of Insane Clown Posse) had already announced a similar event.  Should be illuminating.  You'll still have Sunday to rest up for Talk Like a Pirate Day.

From Chris Mathews, of all people  (yes, the one who thinks Tip O'Neill is the Pierian Spring of political wisdom):  "If you can't stand up for core American beliefs, if you can't walk away from Nazism, why do you have feet?"  Remind me to stop calling him Tweety-bird.

So what will SNL do with its Grim Reaper costume now that Bannon is gone?  So sad!

Trump always said he had a secret plan to defeat ISIS, and he chose this moment to unveil it.  In response to a terrorist truck attack in Barcelona, he advised them that General John "Black Jack" Pershing (relax, he wasn't really black) ended terrorism in the Philippines by employing "bullets dipped in pig's blood" against the Muslim Moros.  Except, you know, it's utter pig's crap.  Does no one in the White House know about Snopes.com?  Trump seems to think hog products have a magical effect on Muslims.  Also, if you shoot their eyes out they can't find their way to Paradise.  No, wait, that's a John Wayne movie.     

Anybody hear from Guam lately?  It's still there, right? 

Anybody hear from Robert Mueller lately?  Not one leak I can recall.  Man runs a tight ship.  General Kelly must be envious.
