I went on vacation and Lindsey Graham died. I should go on another vacation and see who else my leisure time can kill.

It is hilarious tha ABC and NBC refused to air Diaper Don’s speech and then CBS cut away with like 10 minutes left because they had heard enough and started fact checking right then.

General reminder that ole diaper dementia Don is now, and always has been, a lying sack of guano.

The US Senate is a joke. You can replace someone with 30+ years experience with their sibling that has ZERO experience, with no election. Mummers farce.

Resistance is a muscle. Work out every day. Write a letter to Congress Give the finger to a cop Give $20 to a unhoused person Buy fruit from a migrant Join a protest Burn it all down

It is not hard to be truthful. Graham’s office announced his death pretty quickly, take a lesson McConnell’s office.

It is tough admitting you were wrong and it is worse when you bought into something hook-line-and-sinker. But I did, I bought all in on Platner, I was wrong, dead wrong.

It is really a damn shame that the 250th birthday of the USA was so infused with Dementia Don’s bull shit, that no one wanted to attend or celebrate. The “Great State Fair” closes today, and has been a massive flop.

McConnell was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. … Old McConnell was dead as a door nail. Trump knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise?

Theory: Mitch McConnell is on life support somewhere, he has no advanced directive, and his wife fled the country to avoid the US press and the calls for her to pull the plug (she’s a despicable ghoul and always has been).

I bet Mitch McConnell is on life support and never got an advance directive filed properly. So his wife ran off to China so she doesn’t have to make that decision. She has always been about herself and no one else.

Balogun should have never gotten a red card in the first place. It should have been overturned. Dementia Don taking credit for something he had no say in, is basically his entire brand.

The greater LARP community is missing a golden opportunity to have a melee fight in the middle of the “Great State Fair.” Turn this tragedy into a comedy.

There is a reason greed is one of the deadly sins. Look how it consumes people. Forget, for a moment, everything we know about Trump, if you just focus n his wealth hoarding can see a sick old man. He who dies with the most toys still dies.

The Supreme Court of the United States affirmed yesterday that Donald J Trump is a rapist. His lawyers are STILL trying to delay payment to E.Jean Carroll pay her, she is a victim, and has waited long enough.

Birthright citizenship being upheld by only a 6-3 majority is a travesty, it should have been a 9-0 slam dunk. The 6-3 ruling is proof positive that Thomas, Gorsuch (in his stolen seat), and Alito are unfit for the bench.

Always funny to me when actors start thinking they are akin to the characters they play. Mr. Costner you are not a cowboy nor are you a baseball player, you are a successful actor.

Think I might bring a corn dog to the office and then go wander around the “state fair” with it, just to see if people ask me where I got it from.

Apparently after I did my disorderly shit down a template for out of office emails was sent out, directing career staff to blame Democrats for the shut down. Yeah, had I seen it. I still wouldn’t have used their template.
