Somewhere I heard or read that Democracy in America stands on 4

boxes. The Soapbox, the Ballot box, the Jury Box, and the Bullet Box.

Given the impact of Faux News, and general Reich Wing media, I suggest the Idiot Box has nearly overtaken all but the the last.

Screw Turtle McConnell and his floor speech today

He enabled Agolf Twitler for 4 years. He also didn't object to any of Chump's BS law suits that played into the Big Lie.

Hey media please stop using the

word "storm" the Capitol.

Storm is what the Army troops did at Normandy or the Marines at Tarawa. Consequently, those gallant anti-fascists took their objectives but at a grave cost.

Those wretched terrorists on January 6th, the only thing they lost, was another day at the Waffle House. They terrorized the Capitol. That's all.

In our land of sniveling sycophants, like Cruz and Hawley, the immensity of

this man's courage shames much of our civic and political culture.

snip:
Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has been detained after defiantly flying back to Moscow on Sunday, his spokesperson said, months after he was left in a coma when he was poisoned with the nerve agent Novichok.

So Agolf Twitler wants a military style sendoff on 20 January.

Ok. I suggest the example they use is the helicopter lifting off the last Americans from the roof of the American Embassy in Saigon in 1975.

Let's See

THEN:

The Reich Wing says:

Lock her up!

Good guys on both sides!

I believe Putin.

The press is the enemy of the people.

The election is a fraud.

Stop the steal.

NOW the Reich Wing says:

Unify

Hell no, and fuck them.

Getting impeached twice is worse than...

...somebody slipping a Carolina Reaper in your Taco Bell for the 2nd time.

...renting that expensive hotel and being overwhelmed by Bed Bugs for the second time.

...moving again only to find your new street has been renamed after Raygun again.

1776

I keep seeing Reich Wing screeching this date. They're right.

They're the British.

Also the 1812 version in that they ransacked the government.

My spouse has a new tactic

If I ramble down a path in conversation that is disagreeable she stops moving and speaking and freezes like a bad zoom call.

Highly effective.
