Granted I don't know a whole lot about Star Trek, but Kirk sending dick pics to the hot ladies on the Enterprise seems very much in character. And I swear to fucking god, if I see one more headline giving Trump an attaboy for signing that Covid relief bill even though by waiting until the last possible minute it meant benefits had expired that wound up costing many families a week's worth of unemployment all because he wanted to be the center of attention... fuck these people, they can't be gone forever soon enough.

Anyone giving that rapist reptile kudos for anything can rot slowly. Even on a case-by-case basis he deserves nothing. Not that I believe there's anything I'd give him credit for anyway. This was not him doing anything but intentional harm for attention, as usual.
Congratulating him is like telling Manson he did a very good job keeping his razor lines straight while carving a swastika into his forehead. Trump and Manson are the exact same person. Change my mind. And Trump is such a sadist that he intentionally allowed as much harm as possible to come from this before caving fully, just because he could. He always does.
Donald goddamn Trump is directly complicit in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans, with many more affected for life by covid. And it's simply because his narcissistic condition is so severe that the outcome of this virus spread was predictable to only one result the second we learned of its severity. And once Mitch and the cunts in the Senate set him free to do his unfettered worst, they all became accomplices and agreed millions could die and they'd be okay with it, as long as they could still use him as a shield to maintain and exert their control.
With his departure imminent, all I can think about is how we now have an army of maleducated and willfully ignorant pseudo-religious cult members who will spill the blood of god-knows how many more of us in the name of Trump and all the other demented shit he's nurtured. Fuck. Even if .01% of the assholes who voted for him go all Blackwater Gravy SEAL on us, that's 7500 terrorists ready to kill for JFKjr's ghost and a mentally-retarded trust fund rapist. And the number of those voters who will support the actions of the Trump Terrorists is not going to be less than 50 million. Even while they're starving and homeless and dying from a virus, they will stand by anything designed to represent Trump and Trumpism. Because Facebook told them so.

And seeing how completely impotent and uninterested our government is in holding our own accountable to even a minimum of consequence, Russia especially, along with China, Saudi Arabia and a basket of other countries led by deplorable people and their corrupt ideologies, are confident they can move forward in their respective malevolent efforts without us ever getting in the way again.
The diplomatic wasteland this fucker has created will take decades to rebuild, if ever. Mike Pompeo...anything I'd say about him would get me arrested.
Everything Trump touches dies. And he's had his weird, stubby, right-angle thumbs tucked deep into the American pie for 4 goddamn years. We will be uncovering the corrosive actions and experiencing the negative repercussions of his administration for generations. I'll be dead before we know if we've gotten past the bulk of it.

Also, in the last 24 hours we've learned a lot about the subtle differences in media framing of acts of terrorism.
Person of Middle-Eastern descent and/or of dark complexion sets off a car bomb while inside the vehicle = "suicide bomber" (this is the correct framing)
Person of American descent and/or of light complexion sets off a car bomb while inside the vehicle = "the culprit died in the explosion" (the same thing, but not really)
If the Nashville bomber had been a Muslim (or even an African American) the media would be demanding to know where he was radicalized, how he got into the country, which countries we should immediately ban all travel to and from, and why isn't the rest of his community speaking out against him (and even if they were, this question would still be repeated ad nauseum).
But it was a white guy, so let's just move on.

The one person standing between $2,000 relief checks is Mitch McConnell. He is blocking this because he's a soulless, spiteful monster. Notwithstanding that one single check of $2,000 after no assistance whatsoever since the spring isn't even close to the kind of help people need, he's still blocking it. Because he's the worst person in America.
It's gonna be up to the new government next year (hopefully with a Democratic Senate, although I'm not holding my breath for Georgia to do the right thing next week...) to drastically increase number of checks going out to people who have been in desperate need of help for most of this year. Any Republican who wants to scream "but muh fiscal responsibility" can go right to hell.

I guess I picked the right week to take off from work. I can watch the retard revolution kick off on live TV. Sure do hope the cops and FBI are all over these cunts openly screeching, through snot and greasy tears, about bloody civil war for their rapist cult leader.
Maybe when it's over we can send all the corpses to Ohio so DeWine can bury them with the other undeveloped hunks of meat he's forcing women who abort to do.

Hey, remember that time republicans wanted to have Obama impeached for wearing a tan suit? Remember when they all said Obama was a Kenyan Muslim with a tranny wife? Oh yeah, they still do. Remember when they wanted to put Pelosi in prison for tearing up her copy of the rapist's SOTU all-caps blathering rant?
Yeah. They're super cool with documented evidence, a recording of him extorting state officials on tape to fabricate the results he wants in order to steal power. They're super cool with documented evidence of him extorting Ukraine to help destroy the American voting system. They're cool with it all. Anyone calling themselves a republican is cancer to every letter of the Constitution. They are the whigs that thought slavery should be franchised. They are the death of democracy, a disease only looking to destroy for no greater purpose than to feel good about themselves by hurting others. There is not one person claiming to be a member of that party who does not feel that way. I don't care whose mother, father, sibling, grandma or sweet old man at the bus stop they are.
Every republican destroys goodness.

I think I have a Proud Boys bunker being built across the street. The father died years ago. The son went off to Florida to join the military, but he's back now. But since then there have been a few young guys that moved in there with the mother, and they're all Trumpers all the way. One even has a pickup with a giant red Punisher logo on the hood. But I don't think he lives there. Yet. The son moved back last week and they've been building an addition, and there are cars parked on every inch of property and in the street. Considering how haphazard it all looks, I would put money on them not getting permits to build either. You know, that pesky law & order stuff those kinds of lying liars love to whine about for everything that scares them. Which is everything. Oh, yeah. That phone call Trump made. That is huge. It's massively bad, highly illegal stuff that should absolutely, 100% get him not only impeached right away, but locked up finally. Nothing's gonna happen. Nothing's gonna happen after the 20th. Elected Democrats are mainly going to pretend the last 4 years didn't happen and go back to in-fighting and ineffectual messaging. There's no opportunity too great that could ensure victory and dominance for years for Democrats to ignore.

Fuckin' A, go Georgia. Abrams clearly made the right choice to stay on the ground in GA, not run for senate. Without her none of this happens.
Still only .4% between Ossoff and Purdue so they haven't made it official yet. But his margin is only going to widen by Friday, and they'll probably have enough before then to call it for sure.
Now we have grease stains like Rudy and that cracker-sucking fuckhole Mo Brooks outright declaring civil war in the capital of our country.
The best revenge on these thankless, selfish, thoughtless, ignorant, anti-democratic cunts is for Democrats to do a good fucking job and make their lives better so those Trumpers can have the health and stability to put all their efforts into complaining about it with their usual utter lack of irony or self-awareness.
Shitfucks. I'd do to them what they did to the rest of the country over covid, which is abandon us. They don't deserve representation anymore, they're not American. But I guess that's why better people than I sometimes run. They'll do for them what I sure wouldn't.

Terrorists have stormed the Capitol, and cops aren't doing a goddamn thing.
This has the fat, greasy fingerprints of that alcoholic mess Bannon all over it. He told Trump to fire them up today, get them lathered up and violent and cause chaos to avoid Pence reading the results, like that will actually pause the truth.
These are no longer citizens, they are terrorists.

5 years I've been saying this cunt was going to end us. Lots of people did and so few others took it seriously. Even now the worms who backed this are fucking silent. They knew this was coming and made sure that there would either not be enough cops, or enough of the cops who are there are cultists.
Fucking selfish monsters. Each and every person who breached should rot in Gitmo until they are dust.

They're not silent. They're trying to act like they don't own this, saying things like "this is a national embarassment" and "violence from any side, left or right, is wrong."

Cruz is fundraising directly off of this and blaming the left for it all. 40 years of prison rape ain't enough. Hawley will hopefully have a Greg Stillson moment very soon. Trump should hang. The rest can all get stomach cancer and die slow.

Crowd around the Capitol is shrinking. I want to see arrests. Remember that time the National Guard covered the steps of the Capitol to save it from a BLM protest? Remember when a 100% peaceful protest near the White House ended with people being gassed and shot with rubber bullets and beaten with sticks because a rapist wanted a picture in front of a building he's never been inside of before? Yeah, that was awesome. Seriously, there was a shirtless fuck wearing a fake bison skin with horns screeching for Mike Pence from the Speaker's lectern. And he's probably going to sleep in his own bed tonight. Cops let these fuckers through one barricade and at least one was taking pictures with them.

The Pentagon rejected Mayor Bower's and Speaker Pelosi's requests for the National Guard, because there were "concerns about the optics of armed troops" protecting Congress. No concerns about them protecting empty buildings this summer. There are people speculating on social media that Pence will finally enact Article #25 because he unfollowed Trump on Twitter. I laughed really hard at that.

For the last three days we've been dealing with a huge fuckup in COBRA continued coverage after my wife changed employers (technically). Coverage was supposed to be effective on the 1st. Fucking Care First claims they don't have the required information about continued health coverage OR that "it may take five to seven business days to take effect," depending on which weasel we speak to. DC Health Link says they sent the required information at 3:30 AM yesterday (not fucking earlier). I require several medicines to stave off excruciating pain and am EXTREMELY low. We have no idea what we can do to fix the problem, and the broker says she has been harassing people at both entities for the last two days and that she's never seen this take so long. I wanted to complain about something besides a riot and attempted coup for a moment.

Shit, I hope your meds get sorted fast. Pain's no fucking joke.
I'm really curious how events transpire once the legislators get back together later tonight. They have some real options to consider now. Politicians, being the cynical fucks they are, and Americans, being the forgiving short-attention-span dopes that we are, can salvage more of this than we might want to admit to. If even the loudest Trumpsuckers stood up tonight, repented and agreed to impeach, they can likely keep their career in politics and walk away mostly unscathed. Surely by summer it would all be forgotten. It's the sad, sick truth. Even Cruz, if he says he sees the light, can probably keep his damn job for impeaching Trump.
But I have no faith in that outcome either. We'll be dumb and ugly because we're dumb and ugly to the core.

The thing I keep coming back to over and over and over is the sickening contrast between the police response to terrorists storming the US Capitol and the response to BLM protests last summer. I know I shouldn't be surprised, and surprise probably isn't even the emotion I'm feeling, but whatever this emotion is I cannot shake it.

I remember seeing solid lines of NG soldiers in front of shoe stores and boutiques for days. And lets not forget the unmarked secret police types that were sprinkled in all that time.
Early indications are that nothing is going to change, he will just get worse, and we won't do anything about it because we just have to see what this rapist mobster fuck does next on every episode of his reality TV show.

We'll see how serious this talk of the 25th Amendment is. I'm not holding my breath.
And I talked to my dad for a little bit yesterday because neither of us could really believe what we were seeing, and he was talking about another quick impeachment in the House. The way he described it was that if the House votes to impeach, then it doesn't really matter at this point whether the Senate votes to convict or not because if you've been impeached twice then you're banned from ever holding federal office ever again. I haven't really had time to do the reading to see if that's true or not, but anything to keep this monster from trying again in 4 years is worth doing.

I've seen the same, that he couldn't hold office again. It's not about the office for him anyway. At least not ultimately. It's the platform. And he can still have the same sick platform even if he's in prison now. The damage is done. Hawley or Cruz or Pompeo will drag the rapist along to rallies ahead of 2024, even if it's via Zoom from prison. That's at LEAST 50 million locked-in votes.
I took a surprisingly-not-too-deep-dive down the Q hole. Man, we're in for a long haul. This is what happens when you have 3 or 4 generations of homeschooled all-phobic religious warriors taught that nothing is ever their fault and that belief is the same as fact.

All these religious fuckups will only interpret any action they deem negative against Trump as validation that he's God's perfectly flawed messenger. There will never be clarity for them on this. Millions of people. In 10 years he will have gaudy churches raised in his name that will stand longer than any of his cheap buildings. I was gonna say longer than his library, but he's not likely to get one at this point. Fuck. 2021 will not be okay.
