The Onion: Matt Gaetz Forced To Host Hundreds Of White Nationalists After Airbnb Pulls D.C. Listing

“Sometimes when I’m hanging out with a bunch of white supremacists, I’ll tell them, ‘Hey, if you’re ever in Washington and need a place to crash, let me know’—but you never expect anyone will actually take you up on it,” said a visibly exhausted Gaetz, who, according to sources, spent yesterday fielding frantic texts from Proud Boys, militia members, and Boogaloo extremists and sending them each detailed instructions about when they could pick up a key to his place and how to access the Wi-Fi.

I'm calling our Governor (John Carney) John "Desantis" Carney from now on............makes no sense.

WFT QB is a MAGAt. Ick.

I rooted for the Washington Football Team versus the Buccaneers because I hate Tom Brady. Partially because he's a Trumper. Come to find out, according to Yahoo, Taylor Heinicke is a Trumper, too. I feel dirty now.

ABC's show The Last Resort

Has me hoping we have people in the military who would disregard orders. In the show, the nuclear sub was ordered to nuke Pakistan....but orders were not from normal chain and were disregarded. Another US ship was then ordered to sink the sub. Too bad it only lasted 1 year

Just on Fox re: Garland

I just flipped by Fox to see what they were saying... They were talking about Merrick Garland, noted his experience, and then talked about how his nomination to be a supreme Court Justice "stalled" (wink, wink).

They then went on to wonder about how he was going to handle the investigation of Hunter Biden's taxes. Seems to me there's a bigger Trump tax issue to fry.... as well as some money laundering, etc.

I went to protest at W's coronation

And the group of protesters that I joined (amongst others) were not allowed anywhere near the parade route. We were blocked off around K street, penned in. If anyone tried to dart around the barricades, they got unceremoniously tossed to the asphalt by the police. Helicopters circled overhead keeping track of every movement. I can't believe they didn't see this coming today and were so unprepared.

We were all super-pissed at the actual theft of an election, but no one did anything super-crazy.

I remember dreaming about storming the Supreme Court---but there's a difference between being upset/enraged and actually doing something crazy.

Repuke reps not wearing masks in secure locations

Linda Sanchez (D)-California reported that she and other smart people have moved to less secure locations because they were in close contact with Republican Representatives who are refusing to wear masks. Un-fucking-believable.

John Kasich on CNN

Disappointed that Republicans did not keep the Senate. I appreciated his criticism of trump but now he can buzz off with the rest of the Republicans. Says he hopes Democrats don't go crazy, "which they are capable of". Asshat.

I'm glad the Patriots are losing

To Buffalo and are out of it. Not sure why they though Cam Newton would be functional. Ever since he failed to jump on the fumble in that Super Bowl, I've had doubts about him. He can wear his fancy hats and chew his blue gum with his mouth open as much as he wants. As long as the Pats lose.
