Get on with it!

 It's no longer a question of if but when, and by what entity, Trump will be indicted on criminal charges.  He might as well go ahead and shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue.

He knows it.  That's why the line has changed from "They're mine!" to "They're declassified!" to "The FBI planted them!" to "I want a special master!" to "If you come for me I'll burn this country down!"  

A riot is an ugly thing (said Kenneth Mars in Young Frankenstein) und I think it's time we had one.

Stick a fork in him.  Once you become a joke, you're done.


Trolled by baristas.  You hate to see it.  


This is Rick "Swift Boat" Reed.  He's dead.  Congratulations, John Kerry, you outlived this piece of shit.  Enjoy the holiday weekend.

Blake "Don't Say Abortion" Masters is still running for the Senate and his campaign is trying something new:  Reminding voters about the economy by slandering women, LGBTQ and Black people, especially those who work at the Federal Reserve.  When white men were in charge things were fine, apart from that little bump in 2008, and the dot.com hiccup in 2001, and the 1990 savings-and-loan thingie, and the 1980-82 stumble and...


How many insects in human skin are currently living in Arizona?

Pastor wanted:  Matt Chandler is leaving The Village Church in Flower Mound, Texas, over "unguarded and unwise" communications with a woman who isn't his wife.  On Instagram.  Whatever happened to dirty phone calls?

"If there's a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information after the Clinton debacle, there'll be riots in the streets," Lindsey Graham promised Trey Gowdy, who has come to nest in Uncle Rupert's Fox sanctuary.  Lindsey, they've started.


No, what's that other thing that's like a riot?  A carnival!  The Notting Hill Carnival, to be precise, but I know people who can have one up and dancing here in half an hour, complete with sequins.  

We have one chance to avoid carnival, uh, carnage.  Ministry of Truth Social is still running, for now, and Trump used it to emit:  "REMEDY:  Declare the rightful winner or, and this would be the minimal solution, declare the 2020 Election irreparably compromised and have a new Election, immediately!"  Even Trump knows he's going to jail if he can't stage a successful coup this time.

And speaking of January 6, it's nearly September, time for the House Select Committee to resume its public hearings.  Am I the only one who thinks they're going to be a tad anti-climactic?   Maybe we'll find out if espionage is more serious than fomenting insurrection.  This is a question nobody ever thought we'd have to deal with.

The melting Greenland ice cap will raise sea levels by nearly a foot before this year is out.  Maybe we won't have to deal with it.
