A star is born

 

Actually a lot of them.  The Webb Telescope just brought us this image of a black hole ten million times the mass of our sun escaping through space and leaving a trail of new stars.  It broke away from its home galaxy and is clearly enjoying itself.  Isn't the universe amazing?  And aren't we lucky that it was launched on December 25, 2021, during the Biden administration?  If NASA waited until now it would have been named for Trump and it wouldn't work anyway and that would be Biden's fault like everything else.

I have a lot of problems with the internet but you have to love its sheer uncontrollability.  The Sixty Minutes segment on CECOT censored by Bari Weiss on behalf of Dear Leader has surfaced all over the place, most accessibly at Internet Archive.  It's grueling and must be seen.  As if we didn't have enough grievances to air (happy Festivus to those who celebrate).  Thanks to the Canadian who recorded it the old-fashioned way, by pointing a camera at his television.  One day we will all be friends again.


This is why I choose Festivus.  The ICEstapo has not yet co-opted the Festivus Pole to promote its sick agenda of "self-deportation," offering frightened people a $3,000 payment to go away.  We're supposed to treat Christmas with reverence but they can foul it like this, part of a campaign called "YOU'RE GOING HO HO HOME."  The "ho" being Noem, I suppose.  

Dear Leader must have been freshly infused at "the Great Walter Reed" because he's projectile vomiting the crazy in all directions.  How's this for a tease?


Don't bother -- it's a fake.  Trump knows that if he ever cedes power he's headed to prison.  He'll leave 1600 in an XXL body bag seeping brown liquid.

The request for federal disaster declarations for Colorado's two wildfires has been denied because Governor Polis refuses to release election criminal Tina Peters.  Trump isn't even pretending it's anything but extortion.

Louisiana, now that's a state that runs itself.  Its governor, Jeff Landry, has enough spare time to become Trump's "special envoy" to Greenland, of which he says "we have to have it."  "GREAT for them, GREAT for us," Landry chimed in like the chucklehead he is.  Trump laid out the case with his usual perspicacity:  "They say that Denmark was there three hundred years ago with a boat.  Well, we were there with boats, too, I'm sure."  In 1725 we were a British colony and the Drumpfs were rolling drunks in the back streets of Munich.  Was ist der "we"?

Whatever became of the Mighty Armada that has Venezuela surrounded on two sides?  Good question.  As of this writing the invasion has not started (although the American pirates are seizing their oil tankers) and Dear Leader's attention has shifted to Colombia.  "They make cocaine in Colombia and he's no friend of the United States.  He's very bad, very bad guy and he's gotta watch his ass because he makes cocaine and they send it into the United States of America from Colombia."  It's like having Jefferson back, isn't it?  If he's worried that Junior's problem is out of control, there are NA meetings all over DC.  But he's not, because he's incapable of caring for anyone.  

The New York Times committed journalism, reporting on the crooks and creeps lining up to pay Trump millions in bribes for his ludicrous ballroom, pathetic "library," etc.  This led to the anticipated shit explosion:

There was more about the "golden fleet," which will look like this and be designed by Dear Leader Himself.  ("The US Navy will lead the design of these ships along with me, because I'm a very aesthetic person."  He's adding the pubic hair.)  Needless to say, "uh, there's never been anything like these ships...they'll be the fastest, the biggest and by far one hundred times more powerful than any battleship ever built...they hold much more -- they used the word 'lethality.'"  (Mel, could you stop giving him that "word a week" calendar every year?)  "They'll be one hundred times the force, the power..."  


They'll have nuclear weapons and be controlled by AI.  Now aren't you glad this is just a senile fantasy?

After the boat show Trump took questions and introduced another example of his Very Special Math.  Now drug prices are coming down "1,200 percent and in some cases by 1,300 or 1,400 percent."  Can you afford not to get a prescription filled?  Fill three or four and retire on the proceeds!

How much more sordid can the Trumpstein story get?  The Guardian is glad you asked.  It published an apparent suicide letter from Epstein to Larry Nassar, the doctor convicted of assaulting numerous members of the US Olympic gymnastics team.  Do all pedophiles know one another?  Here's the money quote:  "Our president also shares our love of young, nubile girls.  When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system.  Life is unfair."  It's postmarked August 13, 2019, three days after Epstein took "the 'short route' home."  In a related story the Bondi Department has ended funding for more than a hundred organizations which support victims of human trafficking, having found a better use for the $90 million appropriated by Congress.  Maybe weekly peroxide touch-ups for the attorney general.

Several members of the Kennedy family have commented on the illegal defacement of the Kennedy Center but it's generally agreed that Kerry Kennedy won the brass figlagee:  "Three years and one month from today, I'm going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I'm going to need help holding the ladder.  Are you in?  Applying for my carpenter's card today, so it'll be a union job!!!"  

Vanity Fair decided to interview Megyn Kelly for some reason, and Kelly sounds like an early addition to the US Victim Blaming team.  What causes antisemitism?  Jews, of course.  Specifically Jews like Bari Weiss and Ben Shapiro "through their attempts to censor criticism of Israel."  Throughout history Jews have been the cause of their own suffering, from rejecting Christ to feasting on Christian baby blood to starting the Second World War according to Hitler.  What about Jews who don't support the actions of the Likud government, or don't even believe in Zionism like some Orthodox groups?  Megyn doesn't make nice distinctions like that.  They never do.  Anyway it's definitely not Tucker Carlson snuggling up to Holocaust deniers like Nick Fuentes.  He's just asking questions.
