And Let's not forget about the other Deplorables

And the one side doesn't even bother to hide it any more at all.

Remember the 'good people' on both sides? Then there's this guy who was another one who figured out that the best way to dodge jail was to run for political office.

Augustus Sol Invictus, the Florida man and failed U.S. Senate candidate convicted in October for his role in the torch-carrying mob that marched across University of Virginia Grounds ahead of the infamous Unite the Right rally-turned-riot in Charlottesville, was sentenced Wednesday.

Augustus Invictus, a far-right activist and failed U.S. Senate candidate convicted for his role in the 2017 torch-carrying mob at UVa, was sentenced Wednesday.

Expect these types of marches to flourish once again across the US as the white supremacist nationalists are emboldened by Trump.

How long before this nut case ends up back in jail.

It's going to be a long four years.

 

[rareboy]

Yup.

Remember Amaud Arbery?

90% of Americns probably don't.

But some do.

And this enabler may finally be meeting her justice. Although Trump will probablyu pardon her...just to make a point.

The Fraternal Order of Police. Fuck them.

They have 'no statement'.

The Fraternal Order of Police, one of the nation's largest labor organizations for police officers, endorsed President Donald Trump — but now that he has pardoned hundreds of people convicted of attacking police, they have nothing to say on the matter.According to S.V. Dáte of the Huffington...

How the mighty have fallen.
From Attorney General nominee to grifting off-label ivermectin and whatever the other stuff is. I'm surprised he's not selling home-made viagra.

This falls under the "You can't make this shit up" category. Trump and the GOP want to rename the Gulf of Mexico. WTF?

...Trump and the GOP want to rename the Gulf of Mexico. WTF?

Want to? Last week, he signed one of his papal decrees executive orders to rename it.

Meanwhile, egg prices are at all an time high... if you can find eggs in your grocery store. Egg laying hens are being culled by the millions because of avian flu, while Mango Mussolini signed another executive order to prevent Federal health agencies from sending out any reports, including surveillance reports on avian flu.

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/14/why-eggs-are-so-expensive-when-prices-will-drop.html?msockid=2eb86aacb629670200fc7fdab7b966d1

The price of eggs has soared in the past few months and shoppers are doing double takes as a dozen eggs rings up at more than $9 at some retailers.

In December 2024, wholesale eggs averaged $4.62 per dozen, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. But prices vary significantly by region due to transportation costs, local demand and market competition, with average costs of $8.04 in California and $6.25 in New York as of Jan. 10.

The biggest factor pushing up egg prices is a wave of avian flu, which began in early 2022 and led to the culling of millions of egg-laying hens. With demand remaining steady, the reduced supply has caused prices to rise.

It's a troll. Spiteful and puerile with the sole intent of pissing people off with their blatant bigotry. It's why the Trogs follow. THEY want to be able to be petty, nasty. childish little bigots to everyone they blame for their sorry lives. Most of the things they say are just the same. They want to hurt people just because they want to see people not like them suffer while they gloat about it.

It's pathetic, really - but it's what they are, the republican party has become the trashy and vulgar Jerry Springer party, and even the ones who are just there for the grift will play along while the cash flows.

Marge is too stupid to put her hands in the till, so there's at least that. I don't think she realizes that the ones who are going to get away with the most cash are not the Congresspeople on the news tossing the bombs.

It's also a poker tell.

If an executive order that had arcane details involving how government works, Trump didn't write it, someone else did and they're using him to get something done.

If it's an executive order directing the government to paint Air Force One red, white and dark blue, that's Trump. It's almost as if they're giving a toddler a iPad to keep it distracted.

I beleive that most of the EO's were written by the Project 2025 team.

Have politicians and oligarchs always been this fucking pathetic, or is this new? It's hard to take evil people seriously when they act like this, and I'm 99% sure that's why they do it. It's performative, it gives them plausible deniability, "they're not evil, they're just stupid." They're underestimated and downplayed, just another distraction.

You knew it was coming.

 

[rareboy]

Of course you had to know.

They are desperate to get this up in front of the Roberts court.

And as noted elsewhere, if birthright citizenship is overturned, the 14th amendment will be abbrogated or decisions based on it overturned one at a time.
