There may be trouble ahead

 Nick Fuentes has dined at Motel a Lago but he is unhappy.  He was unhappy during the campaign because the Leader was palling around with globalist Laura Loomer, and he is unhappy with the choice of Scott Bessent to be Secretary of the Treasury.  Bessent used to work for globalist George Soros and is openly gay, and Fuentes fumes, "Swamp remains undefeated."  That he runs a humongous hedge fund and is even richer than Steve Mnuchin cuts no ice with Fuentes.  I see a Night of the Long Knives in Nick's future.

"Do you believe that this tyrant, if you offer him a part of a free country, do you think he's gonna stop?" exclaimed Winston Churchill in 1938, after his country agreed to the dismemberment of Czechoslovakia.  No, wait, that doesn't sound Churchillian.  Actually it was Senator Mike Rounds (R-SD).  Rounds is a devout Trumpist who's all in on most of the Leader's plan to take a sledgehammer to the federal government, but he draws the line at selling out Ukraine to Vladimir Putin.  And just like that Rounds will get primaried.  Count on it.  

Rand Paul was MAGA back when it was just called "being an asshole," but he's a stickler for the Fourth Amendment, the one about "unlawful searches and seizures."  He told Margaret Brennan on CBS that he's fine with deporting the "15,000 murderers, 13,000 sexual assault perpetrators" who exist in the Leader's drug-crippled brain, just not with the military:  "It's illegal."  Trembling with new-found courage, Paul reached back to high school social studies to declare, "Tariffs are a tax on the consumer," a bold contradiction to "China will pay us billions."  "International trade actually saves every consumer about $7,000 a year," he went on.  I don't know where he got that figure, but radical talk like that puts him in danger, not from his angry neighbor.

Let's push aside the winter coats and see how Lindsey Graham is doing in the back of the closet:

Are you all right?  Did you aggravate an old hernia writing that?  You do know Bondi was a second choice.  Do you want a favor or do you just need to be scratched behind the ears?  Who's a good boy?

It won't matter to Lindsey but the rest of the world may be amused (by which I mean appalled) by this glimpse into Bondi's bio.  The one that jumps out is spending more than a year in court fighting the Louisiana family whose dog she "adopted" after Hurricane Katrina.  Unless something was left out, she has led a worthless MAGA life.

There was much merriment last week when Lauren Boebert proposed podcaster Dan Bongino for the position of Secretary of Secret Service because there is no such job, but there could well be.  The Leader has a Secretary of Praise, the intensely blonde Natalie Harp.  (Perhaps Lindsey Graham could be her deputy.)  Harp famously follows the Leader around with a laptop and a printer, providing him with the hard-copy adoration he requires the way humans need oxygen.  But there's more to it than that -- she credits him with curing her cancer through his "Test Drugs on Sick People" law.  The Times (of London) amusingly compares her to the Groom of the Stool in the court of Henry VIII, and they should know.  Actually that would bring her into conflict with Steven Cheung, Groom of the Depends.  

Your new Treasury Secretary sat down with money expert Larry Kudlow to explain -- well, let him tell it:  "Tariffs can't be inflationary because if the price of one thing goes up, unless you give people more money, then they have less money to spend on the other thing, so there is no inflation."  Crazy rich people think this is how paycheck Americans reason:  "Tomatoes from Mexico are eighteen dollars a pound so I'll buy shoe polish instead."  

The Texas General Land Office has offered the Leader a 1,400-acre ranch to build his concentration detention camps for the soon-to-be-deported, but there's a problem.  Roughly sixty percent of the state's immigrant workforce is undocumented and the Texas construction industry is already short of workers.  The Leader could force the prisoners to build their own barracks -- that's how Dachau was built -- but what incentive would they have to do a competent job?  It's a quandary!

Elon Musk only seems to be everywhere all the time, interfering in everything.  Or has he been cloned?  No, try not to think about that.  Now he has involved himself with some daft petition in the UK calling for a do-over election and circulated by far-right soreheads who don't like Keir Starmer's Labour government.  Sadly, Michael Caine has added his name to this thing.  They call for a "People's Vote" although I'm pretty sure people voted back in July.  Musk is especially concerned about Tommy Robinson, a sort of British Steve Bannon currently banged up for contempt of court; and someone called Tice who wants this to become "the biggest petition ever."  He has a ways to go -- the Chartists in the nineteenth century had a petition that had to be carried to Parliament by hundreds of people.  If there really were a multiplicity of Musks, wouldn't one of them be in France helping Marine Le Pen destroy the Eurozone?  Don't think about cloning.

Doesn't this face shout INTEGRITY?  Yet Boris Epshteyn is accused of shaking down job-seekers who want to work for the Leader.  Not a one-time bribe, either -- he wants a monthly "consulting fee."  I assume the Leader will get a cut of this revenue stream or it's bye-bye Boris all the way back to Moscow.  At least the sewers in Georgetown aren't exploding regularly.

Just going to put this up and go have a nap.
