Mitch McConnell chuckling with Hannity, admitting his rationale for not allowing a hearing on Merrick Garland in 2016 was a lie, & laughing about not allowing Obama to get any judges confirmed for the last two years of his presidency.

drumpf's ANTI SEMITISM

From Igor Volsky on Twitter regarding the growing climate of anti semitism in this country that is "possibly" related to comment by someone posing as POTUS.

."On Tuesday 2 men, possibly motivated by anti-Semitism, opened fire in Jersey City, killing 4.

The incident is part of a growing tide of hate crimes against Jews

(NYPD received 200 anti-Semitic hate crime complaints in 2019, up almost 1/3 from the same period in 2018)

We don't know if there's a direct connection here, but what's troubling is that this shooting happened just two days after Trump peddled anti-Semitic stereotypes during a speech, portraying Jews as money-grubbing types who care only about their wealth

Opinion | Donald Trump Is Bad for the Jews

There are things more important than your tax rate.

The U.S. Jewish community experienced near-historic levels of anti-Semitism in 2018, including a doubling of anti-Semitic assaults and the single deadliest attack against the Jewish community in American history:

Anti-Semitic Incidents Remained at Near-Historic Levels in 2018; Assaults Against Jews More Than...

Hate + easy access to firearms = tragedy and mass murder.

But what's also troubling and disgusting is that Trump provides a platform to hate and anti-Semitism... literally echoing anti-Semitic tropes...repeatedly

I'll say it again: as a Jew who fled the Soviet Union to escape anti-Semitism, I'm so hurt and scared -- so scared -- to see a president echo such hate and the entire GOP political establishment simply look the other way... even when that same hate is used to justify murder."

New Fangled Briefcase

“hey you’re bringing your briefcase today for your nationally televised impeachment hearing right?” “no no i’ll be fine with this.”

“We’d like to announce that we are the official briefcase maker of Steve Castor. You can fill your briefcase up with files or yummy food (our preference),” the grocery chain posted in a tweet.

They also announced that they’d be running a promo for any folks that would like their very own “briefcase,” writing, “Mention hashtag #TFMBriefcase over the next 24 hours in-store to get your own briefcase for free (aka reusable bag!)”

What Did He Know and When Did He Know It?

The famous question from the Watergate hearings was, "What did the President know, and when did he know it?"

We don't have to ask that of President Trump.

He knew everything, and from the beginning. How?

President Trump was the central player in this corrupt scheme.

The only reason, mr president, that we flush our toilets 10-15 times is to drown out the sound of your voice when you talk such inane bullshit #toilets #ToiletTrump

Some people say the #ToiletTrump quote about flushing 15 times shows Trump is addled. But doubting his stable genius is as crazy as thinking:

/ Windmills cause cancer.

/ We could nuke hurricanes.

/ We should build alligator moats on the border. 

/ Apple's CEO is Tim Apple. ...

There’s something very wrong with the President. He’s talking about toilets now because he keeps having recurring dreams about his Presidency being flushed down one.  #ToiletTrump

I'm really starting to believe the GOP as a whole are all just walking idiots with no self respect. This is the man you're protecting and lying for? You're actually proud to deal with his fuckery everyday, several times a day? At this point you're all jackasses. #ToiletTrump

Let me go ahead and predict #JimJordan's statement on Trump's odd toilet rampage.

"Our President is concerned by the issues facing bathrooms in America. Those Dems are just trying to undo the will of millions of American toilets. It's Hillary's fault. Benghazi."

Fake Outrage

At Wednesday's  impeachment hearings there were four scholars.

One was Professor Pamela S. Karlan, a professor of law at Stanford Law School. A leading legal scholar on voting rights and political process. Here's a mash-up of her time at the microphone.

The last statement she made while trying to illustrate a point has caused #fakeoutrage among GOPers and drumpfettes.

Here is the statement:

“The Constitution says there can be no titles of nobility. So while the president can name his son Barron, he can’t make him a baron.”


The following is from this link:  https://abovethelaw.com/2019/12/republicans-so-incensed-by-pam-karlan-theyre-going-to-name-barron-trump-archduke-of-manhattan/

Which is… true?

But that didn’t stop the snowflake brigade from seizing on the outrage of Barron even being mentioned in the testimony in what was ultimately a successful attempt to hijack the news cycle.

Melania Trump, as Queen Jadis now calls herself, was rousted from her terrifying winter wonderland to lend her name to a denouncement:

"A minor child deserves privacy and should be kept out of politics. Pamela Karlan, you should be ashamed of your very angry and obviously biased public pandering, and using a child to do it."

And they call liberals snowflakes?  Folks, on that night there was a blizzard across drumpfland. 

Karlan apologized for a the comment, giving the drumpf zombies a lesson in humility.

And if anyone needs a lesson in humility and manners, it's Matt "GOP Golden Boy" Gaetz.  

drumpf is a joke to the world

It's an ad for Joe Biden.  Despite that I love it.
