Another week of courtroom drama, Trump threats, and the ongoing
bribery scandal of New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob "Goldfinger"
Menendez. The erstwhile senator did the manly man thing and said it was
all his wife's fault.
On Monday 8 Republican
senators declared that in light of Donnie Trump's 34 count felony
conviction they will never work with Democrats again. It's my baseball
and I get to be the pitcher! The fabulously vapid Lara Trump appeared on
Newsmax and said all threats received by the jurors post verdict could
be blamed solely on District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Uncle Joe Biden.
Trump told Sean Hannity that the trial had been "hard on" Melania.
Immature that I am, I laughed out loud.
The
good doctor Anthony Fauci was called to testify before congress about
the government's handling of the Covid 19 pandemic 3 and a half years
ago. The usual asshats Jim Jordan and Foghorn Leghorn James Comer got
their insults in, but the star of the show was Miss Wonderful Marjorie
Traitor Greene. She declared that he wasn't a real doctor and that he
should be in prison for crimes against humanity. Just when you think her shtick couldn't get more tiresome it hits new lows. She is the mother
of three which means someone had sex with her. But who? Who?
Tuesday
it was Attorney General Merrick Garland's turn to be insulted by the
same Republicans. Garland told Matt "15 will get you 20" Gaetz he would
not be intimidated by their threats of de-funding the Department of
Justice. Moses Mike Johnson said his 6 pals on the Supreme Court will
all rule in favor of Trump. It's in the bag, kids!
On
Wednesday the criminal trial of Hunter Biden had some fascinating
testimony. His ex-wife Kathleen Buell had sad tales of his crack
addiction. His ex-girlfriend Zoe Kestan was a pole dancer and said he
had crack for breakfast, and his brother Beau's wife said she saw him
with cocaine rocks "the size of ping pong balls." Is it just me or is it
creepy that he dated his brother's widow? But his attorney Abbe Lowell
had the most ingenious defense in history. Abbe said that when he filled
out the registration form for his purchase of the snub nose 38 he was
not high at that exact moment in time. He waited until he got home.
Thursday
was the 80th anniversary of the invasion of Normandy, France during
World War 2. 160,000 troops attacked 5 separate beaches and 40,000 died.
Or as Bonespurs Trump calls them "suckers and losers." The Senate
failed to pass the Right to Contraception Act. All but 2 Republicans
voted against it. Their platform this year is called "Barefoot and
Pregnant." America's favorite pipsqueak Josh Hawley told the surly Laura
Ingraham that US troops are fighting in Ukraine. Which means he's
either disclosing state secrets or he's lying. 5 will get you 10 it's
the latter. The Orange Jesus held an outdoor rally in Phoenix, Arizona
in 110 degree heat and 11 people collapsed from heat exposure. He can no
longer afford to rent arenas and he can only do daytime hours because
he can't stay awake past McDonald's dinner time.
On
Friday more polls were released and for the first time in history we
have a new category of voters. Republicans, Democrats, independents and
"Double Haters." Those are people who can't stand Biden or Trump. Wow
it's come to that. Gasbag fascist Steve Bannon failed in his contempt of
Congress appeal so he's going to the big house for 4 months beginning
July 1. The wheels of justice turn slowly but they do turn.
"Meet
The Press" was preempted today by the men's final of the French Open. I
had no dog in that hunt, but my horse Seize the Grey lost the Belmont
Stakes yesterday. In the Triple Crown this year I went 0-3. My usual
high standard! Edmonton is playing Florida for the NHL championship, and
the number one motion picture in the world is "Garfield." I wouldn't
even like it if I was stoned. And so it goes.
Who's on the seventh floor brewing alternatives?
What's in the bottom drawer waiting for things to give?
Spare us the cutter.
Couldn't cut the mustard.
