Truth is stranger than fiction

“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.” -- Mark Twain

SRSLY! WTF?

What is going on? Every day, I say things cannot get more bizarre. But they do. Every day. We continue our descent into some warped would-be Fiction.

This week's stuff includes a rambling interview with the Orange Sh*tstain's own personal television "news" mouthpiece; the withdrawal of his strange nomination for Secretary of Veterans Affairs and the call for the resignation of the lawmaker who raised concerns; a leak of Mueller questions, with a twist on the leak; the admission by his personal physician that his medical report was dictated by the patient himself, and a raid on that doctor's office for medical records; and more questions about a possible neurological explanation for his bizarre behavior.

SCROTUS nominated his Whitewash House physician, Ronny Jackson, a man who was house doctor for two Presidents and the Orange Scabies Man but who had never headed an agency before, to head the Department of Veterans Affairs. SCROTUS really liked the way he had reported on his "full physical," which I blogged about. Not only were there concerns about Ronny's ability to handle the administration of a large agency, concerns soon surfaced about his conduct on the job. There were accusations about his being drunk while on duty and handing out medications "like candy" to staff members. His nomination was soon withdrawn, but only after a keen observation (read: projection) by his boss, who remarked, "If I were him, I wouldn't do it."

After the fiasco, SCROTUS, in true "Damn the Democratic Principles" fashion, called for the resignation of Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) over the kerfuffle. Puh-leeze!

In other medical news, it came out this week that SCROTUS's former personal physician, Dr. Jacob Bernstein in New York, had his office raided by All the President's* Goons to seize medical records back in 2017.  Dr. Bernstein had let it be known that his patient takes fenasteride, aka Propecia, to treat his hair loss. Hair Hitler didn't like that very much.

You may recall that I wrote about Bernstein's bizarre 2015 medial report and that The Atlantic did an excellent analysis of the report. The report, stating that SCROTUS would be "The healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency," was most likely ghost-written. Today Bernstein admitted, yes, indeed, SCROTUS dictated the report (below).

All this medical talk brings us back to fenasteride. It's been floated that perhaps this medication can possibly account for SCROTUS's neurological symptoms.  Follow some of the links. It's a possibility!

Speaking of neurological symptoms... SCROTUS had another rambling interview, this time on the phone with his buddies at Faux and Fiends. He talked rapidly and rambling-ly for over 30 minutes. If you can stomach it, the full interview is below. I prefer the synopsis versions by Stephen Colbert and by Seth Myers. Astonishingly bizarre.











And speaking of ghost-writing... Yesterday, the list of questions that Mueller wants to ask SCROTUS was leaked to the New York Times. SCROTUS called it "disgraceful" blah blah blah, but today Mueller's former assistant speculates that because of the way the list of questions was written and the fact that there are grammatical errors, the leak must have come from TЯUMP himself.

All this within the last few days.

SRSLY, you can't make this stuff up.

Come on, folks.  Resist!
