Garbage Bailout

Sunday, July 28, 2024

A guy in a MAGA T-shirt complains about the economy while dumping the contents of his wallet into a garbage can held by Donald Trump and labeled "bail fund."

I hope people don’t read this as a celebration or defense of the economy under Joe Biden so much as how it’s intended: as an attack on poor, white trash and demented geezers who complain about that economy while sending all their welfare and Social Security checks to Donald Trump.

Clinging To Power

Donald Trump grabs Lady Liberty by the pussy while Joe Biden tries to do the same.

It’s been about two weeks since one demented, racist, seriallydishonest sexual predator defeated the other demented, racist, seriallydishonest sexual predator in the 2020 American Presidential election…

Fear Leads to Hate

It turns out Bernie Sanders is and always has been the “pragmatic” choice to defeat Trump Drumpf. Like every other word out of Hillary Clinton’s mouth, such as her commitment to a final debate in California, claims to the contrary were lies, or at least dredged from a deep well of self-deception

Little GOP of Horrors

Saturday, August 29, 2015

In contrast to his reputation as a builder, devouring the entire slate of Republican candidates this election cycle and rendering the Republican brand as radioactive as Chernobyl would be Trump’s greatest, most lasting achievement, having a far longer-term, more meaningful, and positive impact on history and the world than any number of golf courses with ridiculously-oversized American flags or skyscrapers with his name plastered on them in giant letters.

Separate but Equal Justice Under Law

Stomp Out the Vote

Aware of the inverse relationship between the size and diversity of a group of people, and the likelihood individuals in that group will vote for them–even when given only one other choice–the GOP has apparently reasoned that if they want to continue winning elections without having to make their policies more-inclusive and less-terrible, their best bet is to use the powers they gained during the 2010 election to decrease turnout in the future.

Tarred & Feathered

Some racist morons whose racism has been so obvious and indelible, that any denials of it are ludicrously absurd…

Torch of LIberty

I thought the “free at last” segment from Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech might be repurposed to refer to this decision as a backwards step for Civil Rights if I were to pair it with an image that was neither subtle, nor easily-misinterpreted…
