Y’know, after the hell of 2020, my personal definitions of what constitutes “cruel and unusual” has shifted a LOT. I’m in favor of bringing back the public stocks and letting this twerp be the first to demonstrate it. In Kenosha.

TRUMP: “I want to make this transition as smooth as possible, so I believe that Mr. Lincoln can help things go swiftly.”
MICHIGAN GOP: “That’s a penny...”
TRUMP: “Well I’m also familiar with the works of a Mr. Thomas Jefferson. Great man. Huge man!”
MICHIGAN GOP: “That’s.... that’s a shiny nickel...”

The fact that he talks about being there in the first place, just... no! If he was scared for his life in Kenosha, he didn’t have to go to Kenosha!

During Rittenhouse’s first time speaking publicly since his arrest, the teen vigilante told the Post that he “got my $1,200 from the coronavirus Illinois unemployment ’cause I was on furlough from YMCA and I got my first unemployment check so I was like, ‘Oh, I’ll use this to buy it.’”

Yeah, I have a lot of problem with the Democratic congressional machine, but Pelosi is doing what she needs to do and I hope she keeps it up. We need more help, I want more help, but fuck the GOP and their obvious greed and bloodlust.

Money and the fact that the Right is so cult-like that if Trump says he’s gonna go to Parler or wherever, there’s a significant chunk of people who would follow him.

“I have had friends and family who are Democrats, and I love them dearly,”

Actually I have a hard time reading any of his interviews and NOT hearing his voice, pauses and hesitations included.

Seriously, if they don’t believe they’re sick, they shouldn’t get the resources.

I’m guessing the big question is: “NOW WILL DADDY LOVE ME?!?!?!?!”

Once again, The Root comes through with the story I didn’t know I needed today.

A writer I follow on Facebook posted a bunch of Tweets this morning from right wingers bemoaning how Fox is pandering to the left now and completely unfair and they’re all moving to NewsMax because they’re REAL NEWS!

“Facts don’t care about your feelings!!!”
OK, but the facts say that the turnout for Biden beat that of Trump, which is pretty self-evident.
“Those aren’t the REAL facts!!! I have proof!”
Oooookay? Let’s see it.
“It’s on this Post-It Note that I... whoops! Lost it... somehow. Listen, here’s my anonymous source...”

He also blamed Jamie Harrison’s loss to longtime South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham on the abolitionist slogan, despite Harrison explicitly saying he opposes “all of these efforts to defund the police.”

To the goober in the greys with this bit of insight:

With any luck, he’ll need to book a cheap flight to the Hague in a year or so.

Because it adds to his ability to play the “victim”. The left wing media and those mean nasty snowflake bullies like Jimmy Fallon (the actual FUCK!?) keep beating up the most powerful man in the world and he doesn’t even feel it but he mentions it so you know that he’s fine and we need to ensure that nobody ever picks…

They also (weirdly) love a victim, at least a victim who suffered at the hands of the beta snowflake loser bullies of the antifa fake news. This is why people are hoping for a landslide win for Biden. Because if Biden wins by a small margin and Trump actually leaves the White House, the right wing can play up how it’s…

It depends on how much he pays the escort for “discretion”.
