It's hard to keep up with all the MAGAt twaddle
Ann Telnaes |
Every day, something new and more bizarro dribbles out. It's almost as if they have given up and are just going full balls-to-the-wall, throwing up anything and everything. Cuz they can't possibly think they are making points with the American voters, can they?
I'll try to run them down for you.
The Springfield Shit Show
They insist on using the legal immigrants living in Springfield, Ohio, as their pawns, damn the consequences. Jackass O'Lantern and the Hillbilly Enemy have been tripling, quadrupling, and googolpling down on immigrants from "Haitia" eating pets and spreading disease. Yes, you read that right. JD thinks Haitians are from Haitia.
I'm starting this Colbert clip at Vance's remarks, but as usual it's worth the whole 11-minute watch, so back it up and start at the beginning, too!
And then, Vance accidentally admitted that he is just making it all up to get the press's attention. He said, in an interview with CNN's Dana Bash, "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do."
Here is the bearded bozo running his mouth:
It's all a crock of horseshit.
Everyone knows so! The Springfield police have denounced the lies. The Mayor of Springfield has denounced the lies. The Governor of Ohio has denounced the lies. The lady who started the rumors by accusing her Haitian neighbors of taking her cat, Miss Sassy? She apologized and reported that Miss Sassy was found safe and sound in her own basement.
Make it stop!
The lies have dire consequences.
- Nazis are strutting around town and the KKK have been spreading their filth.
- There have been increased numbers of bomb threats and threats of violence in Springfield. City buildings, schools, and now hospitals have been threatened.
- State troopers have been called in to protect the schools. Great.
- Haitian residents are having their windows smashed and acid being thrown on cars. As they huddle inside, Moira Donegan of The Guardian is calling it like it is: the makings of a pogrom.
Jabba the Gut cannot bring his mouth to denounce threats of violence:
Reporter: “Do you denounce the bomb threats in Springfield, Ohio?”
Donny: “I don’t know what happened with the bomb threats. I know that it’s been taken over by illegal migrants, and that’s a terrible thing that happened. Springfield was a beautiful town and now they are going through hell."
It's HELL OF YOUR MAKING, you horned banshee!
The Campaign of Hate took this weird turn:
The ignorance is astounding.
What the actual fuck is this shit?
It fits right in to his "water is being diverted to the Pacific Ocean" schtick. What a weirdo!
And speaking of water...
Global warming is good! It lets us have "more seafront property." Dafuq?? Do you really not know how rising water works?
You just can't make up this crap!
More Non-Sense. There's a lot of it!
Question from a voter: How will you reduce the price of groceries?
Response: Whatever the hell this is...

FORE!
They are calling it another "assassination attempt." Another nut-job was able to get close to where the 45th president* was going to be playing golf. The Secret Service had failed to secure the perimeter of the course, and when an agent scouted ahead of the golfer, he spotted a rifle poking out of the shrubbery. The agent fired shots – the only shots that were fired – and the man who had been camping out in the bushes for 12 hours fled in a car. He was caught shortly afterwards.
No one was injured.
This guy had a political history all over the map. He is registered unaffiliated with a party; he has voted in a Democratic primary. He was a Drumpf supporter before turning against him, and there is noise about him supporting Bernie Sanders, Tulsi Gabbard, and Nikki Haley. He has an extensive criminal background. He has pie-in-the-sky ideas about the war in Ukraine. He's a nut case.
I don't want to be victim-blaming, but maybe TRUMP should think about stopping the outdoor prances. The Secret Service doesn't like it when he's out and exposed, and the crackpots love it.
The Diapered One and his best boy JD want everyone to believe that it is Harris's and Walz's rhetoric that drove the whacko to make a motion to appear to want to shoot across a golf course. Spare me.
Who really has the violent rhetoric? We have the receipts.
By the way. You keep saying "Marxist-Communist-Fascist."
Firstly, moron, communism and fascism are on opposite ends of the ideology chart. Secondly, she is a pretend communist in your li'l head. You are an actual fascist.
Traitor Tot was incredulous that Harris and Biden were "so nice" in their phone calls to him after the incident. "Nice" is not part of his world, after all. It shouldn't surprise us that it surprised him that someone can actually care.
The threat of violence wrapped up in a non-threat of violence.
Check out this vile poison. Vance: "You know the big difference between conservatives and liberals is that no one has tried to kill Kamala Harris in the last couple of months."
What the actual fuck.
The Grifter
You may have seen this graphic. Is it true?
Yes. Yes, it is true. The graphic is from a 2019 MSNBC story. Over the previous several years, he had stiffed cities for what they spent on hosting his rallies. As of 2024, he still owes money to cities around the country.
Do not forget about Project 2025.
Talk to your friends and share this song!
Lastly...
Here's more about Laura Looney.
The Blue Side
The Polls!
The Polls have been amazing. I wish I would stop looking at them. Why? Because polls don't vote, and we can't sit back and think that other people are going to do the work for us. Every single one of us must make it to the ballot box. Every 👏 single 👏 one 👏!
Still, it feels good to see the numbers, particularly in very very important swing states. The newest Quinnipiac University Poll:
- PENNSYLVANIA: Harris 51%, Trump 45%; +/- 2.7 points
- MICHIGAN: Harris 50%, Trump 45%; +/- 3.3 points
- WISCONSIN: Harris 48%, Trump 47%; +/- 3.0 points
Look at these numbers, enjoy them, bask in them for five minutes, and then forget them. Make a plan to vote. Help your friends and family make a plan to vote. Do. Not. Rest.
First Step: Register to Vote!
Deadlines are coming up fast. Check the states where you or your loved ones live. Make sure you and they are still on the voter rolls. Register new voters, too!
What are you doing to help? We need action!
Here's some of my action: I'm writing hundreds of postcards to Democratic voters in swing states in support of specific candidates and in general support of voting. You can help too. Postcards to Voters still needs help.
The Funnies and the Thinkies
I say again: it's only the brown immigrants that they hate! |

I love these:
You may have noticed that I don't post anything about RFK, Jr. It's mostly because I think he's irrelevant. Also I hate that he shares a name and genes with the great Bobby Kennedy. But this one made me chuckle, so this may be the only meme you'll get of that cave dweller.
P.S. I don't say it enough, but I'm much indebted to my fellow Resisters who send stuff to me! Thanks to all!
