'Republican Christians Credit God for Killing Elijah Cummings

[...] Jesses Lee Peterson, the right-wing commentator and pastor, used his radio program to declare, "that's what happens when you mess with The Great White Hope". (Peterson is black, and that is his nickname for Trump).

Peterson was so impressed by God's homicidal abilities he added to the list:

"If you notice, John McCain, he dead. Charles Krauthammer, he dead. And Elijah Cumming, now he dead. They all didn't like The Great White Hope, they went against him, they talked about him, now they all dead. That's amazin'."

[...]

Chris McDonald, vocal right-winger and conspiracy theorist, streamed a special edition of his "The MC Files" devoted to abusing the recently deceased. He and his guest, Pastor Stacey Shiflett, spent the entire program attacking Cummings as corrupt, unbiblical, and ungodly - and asserting that God had taken his life because of his opposition to Donald Trump.

'He added that Cummings was a corrupt and lawless leader who waged "a cooked, deceptive, demonic attempt" to take down Trump.

Finishing with: "Everything that he's done has been nothing but trying to take this president out. I believe that God had had enough, and God moved."'

Here's some political comedy for ya.

Was in Mancs three weeks ago for a gig. Thought it was gonna be a political riot against the Tories in Picadilly.

Turned out it was just a City match.

'This Sure Looks Like Mitt Romney's Secret Twitter Account (Update: It Is)

Meet "Pierre Delecto."

[...]

"Just spoke to @MittRomney on the phone, and asked him about Pierre Delecto. His only response: 'C'est moi.'"'

'Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney tried to rewrite history in an interview on Fox News Sunday and host Chris Wallace was having none of it. [...] But Mulvaney denied he ever said that: "Again, that's not what I said. That's what people said I said." [...] There was so much back and forth and Mulvaney continued to say he didn't say something he said to the point where at one point Wallace shot back: "You totally said that."'

https://slate.com/ne...uo-remarks.html

'With the president blaming the media and "Irrational Hostility" from Democrats for the cancellation, Mulvaney was asked by Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace why the president "caved" to the backlash. [...]

'At the end of the day, you know, he still considers himself to be in the hospitality business, and he saw an opportunity to take the biggest leaders from around the world and he wanted to put on the absolute best show, the best visit that he possibly could.'

Wallace asked if Trump understood why it "looked lousy," prompting Mulvaney to say: "I think he thinks people think it looks lousy."'

Retro Report on PBS is pretty awesome. If for nothing else, at least watch until the end for "Now It All Makes Sense with Andy Borowitz."

'President Donald Trump will stick with presidential tradition and attend the World Series, but he will not throw out the first pitch.
He is also afraid he would look too fat with the bullet proof vest.
[...] The Washington Nationals, who will decide the such matters, had already said that the president was never asked to throw out the ceremonial pitch, which will be thrown by Trump critic José Andrés, a celebrity chef and humanitarian.'

'Trump threatens to drop Isis fighters at UK border: "Have fun capturing them again"


"They came from France, they came from Germany, they came from the UK. They came from a lot of countries," [...]

"And I actually said to them, if you don't take them, I'm going to drop them right on your border and you can have fun capturing them again."'

Looks like you got a real good country going there...I'm just sayin, it'd be a shame if somebody ISISed it.

[Tsundoku]

Awfully ... flammable ... things, countries ...

This is gold though. Even after the SF guys taking out al-Baghdadi (and DJT shamelessly hogging the spotlight like the showboating fucktard he is), the Washigton crowd hate his guts.

Trump getting soundly booed at the World Series game in DC was glorious. I'm guessing he doesn't leave his little MAGA bubble again any time soon.

Indeed.

[Malankazooie]

It's funny how time and distance brings perspective. Obama got made fun of up and down the avenue for wearing 'mom jeans' when he threw out a first pitch. Trump wouldn't even make the attempt because he said the bullet proof vest makes him look fat. No chump, your doughy, out of shape body makes you look fat.

Something spoooooooky! for Halloween.

Fun fact:
That was Jefferson lamenting his opponents accusing him of conceiving a child with a slave.

Something he had in fact done. Six times or so.


Some things never change indeed.
