"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
H.L. Mencken, On Politics: A Carnival of Buncombe

"War what is it good for? It's good for business."
Billy Bragg

Once again, the White House Dementia Care Unit falls down on the job.

I think it's good for the US to pay a great deal of attention to Latin America.
But not by allying with what are essentially rightwing hacendado cliques.
Trump will, though, because he personifies the pinche gringo bent on ripping off.

Don't drink it anymore, but when I did it didn't take long to figure out there was a whole world of excellent bourbon out there that left Jim Beam and Jack Daniel's in the proverbial dust. The Canadians are doing themselves a favor.

Before this is done, Trump will rescind the 1909 order abolishing wooden figureheads on the bows US Navy ships so he can have larger-than-lifesized(?) carvings of underage mermaids with yuuge ... prospects.

Boaz is gassed trying to keep up with TrumpWelt's shifting party line.
"We have always been at war with Eastasia."
Must be tough, though, adjusting to the shifting realities of a cult run by a senescent lunatic.

If only you could express it so it makes any sense.
Ah, well, the best laid plans and all that ...
Right, Igor?

"Just be patient and the truth will be delivered."

Thanks of a grateful nation to you for your input.

Good point. Boaz, like so many MAGAts at the moment, is a bit confused, desperately looking for a way to somehow minimize the self-inflicted damage Trump is causing himself today by supervising an almost comically incompetent coverup of his horrendously bad choices in the past.

Possessing, sadly, few practical skills myself I urge folks looking to live something approaching an outback existence to consider that they are absolutely essential; the difference between comfort and discomfort, and even life and death. As they say, do your own research.

"I'm not a fan of some of the ships you do. I'm a very aesthetic person ... ."
Who said that?
(A) Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson
(B) Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto
(C) Admiral of the Fleet Horatio "Horny" Hornblower
(D) Rear Admiral John "Jack" Aubrey, CB, MP, JP, FRS
(E) Donald J. Trump, Impressario

It was the same with Sir, from whom I obtained not only my incredible genetics but a fookin fortune. I mean, oh, a great, big, wonderful, yuuge pile a dough. For me, from Sir, with ... love. Then, lots of that dough just went away. When I got bankrupted. Six times! Can you imagine?!? They bankrupted me six times. That was before the thirty-four felony convictions and a lot of other nasty things they did. But when they got it all bankrupted, well, let me tell you, you never saw such mess. And so when it comes to Daddy, I say, "Yes, Sir, I know, I know, I know, it was your money so your fault, but I forgive you." That's me, showing Jesus how it's done.

They'll all be in uniforms next.

"What do you expect?"

Persuasive evidence, Boaz, persuasive evidence.
Were you this moronic when you hoiked around in Pharaoh's Army?

"I still don't even remember the Hermits playing at all"
No worry, because as Peter Noone warbled, "Second verse, same as the first."
Good holidays to you.

"We have always been at war with Eastasia."

An interesting, informative piece that covers quite a bit of territory well. Thanks for posting it.

The information the government has supplied to the public on these strikes consists of statements and video. These are disseminated without offering persuasive supporting evidence; the video lacks context. With that before us, an administration addicted to regularly spreading falsehoods expects us to nod and stfu. During the Vietnam War, LBJ's government fell victim to the "credibility gap." People just stopped believing what they had been told, and they wouldn't believe anything the government said after it lost their trust. Another lesson unlearned.

Rubio comes out of the South FL Cuban milieu, which is a pretty complex mix. Not everyone got out of Cuba soon after New Hear's Day 1959 because they quickly figured out what the Castro brothers and their crew were up to and skeedaddled. Victimhood is part of a strong narrative within the politically influential community; it's a badge of honor. And it's one Marco Rubio misappropriated for ages, claiming his parents escaped Castro's tyranny. Complete nonsense. Anyone who can be cool with using that lie to advantage, whine about hating the Senate and not wanting to be in it anymore and then clinging to his seat, and allow Trump to emasculate him may have serious responsibilities yet is not a serious person. Disseminating lies is certainly not beyond him.

The Cult Delusion is Strong in this one.

Watching the carefully arrived at calculations of a political calculator who gave it all for Trump completely fall apart really does warm up those chestnuts roasting on an open fire.

Bovino is full of it, just another one of Trump's broken toy preening and prancing enablers and crumb gatherers
