WTF?

 

It's one thing to take a Sharpie and deface a map so the Gulf of Mexico is renamed to fluff your ego.  Nobody else has to take it seriously, as the Associated Press demonstrated, and thank you for your sensible resolve in this matter.  Threatening to murder people for trying to fly to, over or near a sovereign nation is grounds for arrest.  Since that has not happened, the United States of America is a terrorist state.  

How are you?  Have you received a clearly illegal order to, I don't know, shoot two men clinging to the wreckage of the boat you just sank?  Because someone thousands of miles away staring at a screen and struggling to focus both bloodshot eyes at once decided they looked like drug smugglers?  The Geneva Convention doesn't make distinctions like that.  One day you may have reason to be grateful.

Someone decided this woman looked like an "illegal."  Fortunately she was carrying ID as a member of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation of Oregon.  Unfortunately ICE thugs are not bright and have a Miller Quota to fill, so one of them called it "fake" and attempted to seize her phone in case it had an unflattering picture of someone very important.  She knew better than to ask for their ID, which results in immediate deportation to El Salvador.  Perhaps he remembered Elaine Miles from an episode of Northern Exposure. 

In any case, she was allowed to go on her way.   

This is an unflattering picture of Someone Very Important.  Delete it from your phone.

As you probably know, nearly all of Joe Biden's pardons have been "terminated" because he failed to charge the going rate for them.  It's not clear how this is calculated but Juan Orlando Hernandez must have made a pile protecting the people who trafficked 400 tons of cocaine from Honduras to the US during his presidency.  Sentenced last year to 45 years in prison, he can well afford the "Full and Complete Pardon" he is getting from the Goblin King Trump, who says he was "treated very harshly and unfairly."  What exactly is it Nicolas Maduro is supposed to be doing?  The New York Times says he talked to Trump last week, probably to arrange payment.

You should probably delete this from all devices now that the White House Department of Gaslighting has decided to deny it and blame Democrats for quoting it.  They call this their "Hall of Shame" because "Memory Hole" was used by George Orwell.

Like The Evil One, who sought dominion over digital watches, Trump has seized power over numbers themselves.  Did you know he has reduced the prices of prescription drugs by "700% and more"?  It says so right here:

And he has accorded us "FAVORED NATION STATUS," which has also never happened before because it makes no sense.  It's a revolution in medicine as well as arithmetic!  It's a granfalloon!  It's a dodecahedron!  It's mayonnaise!  Talk loudly and proudly.  Ignore the derisive laughter.  When Ronald Reagan got like this his family and his staff made sure he didn't humiliate himself or the country.  Poor poor Donny.

"You can't have more than a hundred percent of anything."  (Leo Bloom, CPA, The Producers)

Enough movie references.  I'm going to watch Wag the Dog, about a president facing a sex scandal who uses a war as a distraction.  Who comes up with these fantasies?
