Boobs in Congress
Trump spent today in a New York courtroom for Day #1 of his civil fraud case. He showed up to defend his good name, which is being removed from buildings in New York right now. His name has tanked the value of Trump properties, particularly on the 45th floor of Trump Tower. He says his brand, “Trump” is worth as much as Coca Cola. Wrong. His brand is worth as much or less than Enron.
General Mark Milley called Trump a wanna be dictator in his retirement speech.
The first defendant in the Fulton County RICO case has flipped. Fake elector Georgia bail bondsman Scott Hall is pleading guilty to 5 charges in exchange for 5 years of probation. He has to testify against Trump and everybody else to get out of going to jail for Trump. His role was breaking into election equipment and copying ballots in Coffey County. He will be the star witness in Sidney Powell’s trial that starts in 3 weeks. She directed him what to do.
Democrats saved the day by voting for a bipartisan 45 day spending measure to hold off on a MAGA government shutdown. McCarthy blamed the Democrats for the chaos and the Dems saved his butt. Democrats saved Republicans from themselves for 45 days.
Matt Gaetz threatened to move to vacate (fire) Kevin McCarthy and then took it back the next day.
Say what? Justice Clarence Thomas recused himself from a Supreme Court decision rejecting John Eastman’s request that the court vacate a decision that allowed Eastman’s emails to be shared with the January 6 Select Committee. Thomas was part of the fake electors plot. Eastman, Chesebro, Powell and Giuliani were confident that the Supreme Court would side with them if things got that far because Clarence Thomas was their guy. Did they assume that he was their guy or did his wife, Ginni, tell them that he was their guy?
According to Cassidy Hutchinson’s new book, Mark Meadows leaked classified documents to at least 2 right wing media personalities. White House counsel Pat Cipollone had a hard time getting the documents back. They were Crossfire documents about Russia and his campaign. They were eventually returned in a Whole Foods bag. Dick Cheney’s chief of staff, Scooter Libby, did that and went to jail for 30 months.
White supremacist, transphobic MAGA Republican and gay divorcee with new boobs, Lauren Boebert, took to the House floor to slander the highest ranking transgender official at the Pentagon. She wants to use the Holman rule to either cut her salary or fire her (who she purposefully kept referring to as “him”). “As DOD’s highest-ranking trans official, this delusional man thinking he is a woman embodies and espouses the woke-ism that causes — that’s causing significant harm to our military readiness and troops’ morale.” Secretary Shawn Skelly was a naval aviator for 20 years and continues to serve this country honorably and well. Boebert owned and lost a bar and grill called, “Shooters” where waitresses were made to wear guns in holsters.
LGBTQs in the military fun fact: Former Democratic Senator and comedian, Al Franken, has performed for the troops a lot during his career. He stepped down as senator after the Republicans made a big deal out of a photo surfaced of him pretending to grab the boobs of a female performer who was passed out while they were on tour, saying he was sexually harrassing her. The photo was taken while he was a professional joke maker, not a professional law maker. He’s a gentleman, not a sexist, so he apologized and stepped down and the Senate was worse off for it. That’s why the boobs in the Senate went after him. He was too good. He says that LGBTQs in the military wasn’t a problem until the Republicans made it one for political reasons. He used to make jokes about gay members in the military during his shows, particularly the lesbians who all sat together.
Governor Newsom of California has chosen Dianne Feinstein’s replacement — Laphonza Butler. She is the former president of Emily’s List and a labor leader. Oh and she’s a Black lesbian.
