Closing in

 

Yesterday we learned that an "employee" at Mar a Lago moved boxes of documents into the Boss's residence after he found out the FBI was coming to look for them.  I believe this person because they lied about it at first; the story changed when jail was mentioned in subsequent interviews.  Now the Document Thief knows there's a spy in his organization.  Now he's scared.

He also learned that he has to be deposed under oath in E. Jean Carroll's lawsuit, which could lead to the only consequences he has faced for a career of sexual assaults.  Clarence Thomas sidestepped his "Can you do me a favor?" and referred it to his eight associates, who brusquely ruled, "The application to vacate the stay entered for the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit on September 21, 2022, presented to Justice Thomas and by him referred to the Court is denied."  (Which gets him off the hook with Ginni and bitch-slaps Aileen Cannon.)  No, Trump can't have the stolen secrets back, 9-0.

And the icing on the cake is another unanimous vote:  to subpoena his ass in front of the House Select Committee, whether he recognizes its validity or not.  The Committee presented one of its outstanding documentaries today featuring previously unseen video of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer pleading for the Maryland and Virginia National Guards; a selection of texts the Secret Service weren't able to conceal; the pre-riot plotting of Bannon and Stone; and testimony from Elaine Chao which isn't going to tone down Trump's racism a bit.  Jamie Raskin matched up the violence with the Trump tweets like a Swiss watch.  It's over.  He may not even have noticed the request by New York AG Letitia James for an injunction to stop the "ongoing fraud" of the Trump Organization.  No more stashing assets like Alex Jones.

Back in August the Justice Department said it would not seek a search warrant for the Bedminster theme park, but that was before video surfaced of more document boxes being loaded on Trump's plane.  And now I'm going to editorialize:  Bring in the ground radar and search the whole place.  Trump's business associates probably have bodies buried all over his properties, especially in New Jersey.  It's hard to find a spot that won't be disturbed by construction work.  At this point there's nothing criminal I wouldn't happily believe about this individual.  

We don't just have the best-looking, smartest people, but the funniest.  Some Fox News performer was on yesterday complaining that because of Bidenflation, his lunch at Taco Bell cost $28.  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez replied, "If someone is talking politics and eating $28 of Taco Bell at one sitting, then my immediate follow-up question is what their thoughts are on Biden's cannabis rescheduling."  He can read that when he's no longer hunched over on the toilet.

Fox News's idea of funny is a 2018 phone message that private citizen Joe Biden left for his son Hunter.  Despite his drug addiction and other problems, the old man still loves him.  Isn't that weak and girlie?  Telling your son you care about him and you want him to get help?  You know what man's man would never talk like that to Junior or Eric?  Yes, you do.  Hannity's stunt didn't get quite the response he expected, except from his fellow monsters.  Cut him some slack -- he has to get pretty low to stay competitive with Tin-tray Tucker.  

The year 5783 got off to a rocky start for Jews, with antisemitism spiking everywhere.  First there was Kanye West's weird rant about "death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE," then Candace Owens's weird defense of his weird rant.  ("Honest people" know Ye is not going to start a second Holocaust so what's the problem?  As Empty Greene said of Alex Jones's slanderous abuse, "All he did was speak words.")  Then there was the West stuff that was too crazy even for Tucker Carlson, like did you know Margaret Sanger, a "known eugenics," joined forces with the KKK and created Planned Parenthood to "control the Jew population"?  (People who talk about the "Democrat Party" will eventually use "Jew" as an adjective, too.)  Then the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire ("Live free or don't") posted an unhinged tweet comparing Volodymyr Zelensky with Hitler.  The tweet has been deleted but the smell lingers -- Zelensky lost family members in the Holocaust.  Of course, that has never deterred the Soros-haters either.  Also, Trump is now calling E. Jean Carroll "Ms. Bergdorf Goodman," but I don't even know if that's supposed to be racist.  I have a headache.

Are the microwaves still spying on your fortress of solitude, Donzo?  Time to rip out the walls.
