I haven’t seen anyone mention it so I will: Native Americans would like to know when the Apple Dumpling Crime Consortium is vacating North America since America is for TRUE Americans who didn’t call themselves that but were absolutely here first.

HI2thDoc's avatar

MAGAs don't know history. Or anthropology. Or archaeology. Or genetics. Or human culture. Or much of anything else.

TCinLA's avatar

Or anything else.

Fixed it. :-)

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

Indeed you did, I was so disappointed that Elon Musk turned out to be so terribly stupid, not knowing any history, or understanding the simple concept of free speech. He just listens to ignorant people and outsources his opinion to them.

Deborah Hunter's avatar

Apparently, not all the best and brightest, become naturalized citizens.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I think his right wing racist convictions cause him to be a free speech absolutist in order to unleash hate speech

They don’t know Jack shit.The common denominator is they all hate the same people and things.

Samantha M's avatar

That’s why I called them the AD Gang. They’re definitely evil but also stupider than a box of rocks — why else do they keep saying the quiet part out loud? By all means keep talking, but don’t be afraid of them. FIGHT BACK 👊🏼

My favorite line with Jackshit in it is from Army of Darkness, starring Bruce Campbell.

He tells his captor, "You ain't in charge of nothing but Jack and shit, and Jack just left town."

I saw a great comment elsewhere on Substack that told the MAGAs, if you don't have money for groceries or gas, maybe you shouldn't have wasted it on gold sneakers, Bibles from China, watches, shitty trading cards, NFTs or any of the other trump crap

Oh, come on, you know the Indians were selfishly keeping all this for themselves when Europeans were in need of it. John Wayne even said so, so it must be true. Amirite?

Because of all the tidbits about actors who went to war and became legends in their time, allow me, please to bring up one more--Elvis Presley. No, he didn't do anything heroic in WW2, but he, too, refused to go into the Army's Entertainment Division. He enlisted and was sent to Grafenwehr (sp?) Germany. Ten degrees colder in the winter and 20 degrees warmer in the summer. The first thing he did was get a gallon jar from the chow hall, and put his pay in it. All $78.00 plus change, then he put it on top of his wall locker, then told the guys in his barracks that he didn't need it. If they were short, to take what they needed, and if or when they could pay it back, to do so. He never checked. He pulled KP and Guard duty on holidays, relieving those enlisted who had wives and family so they could stay home with them. When he rotated for his discharge, he took the jar with the money down to the First Sergeant and told him to do something nice for the guys. I was told this by a soldier who served with him.

HI2thDoc's avatar

And he was suuuuuch a fair minded fellow, yeah?

TCinLA's avatar

He certainly was. Applied for a draft deferment in World War II on the grounds that making his war movies was "essential to the war effort."

Cindy Watter's avatar

Which was why my very conservative WW2 vet dad didn’t like him.

DR Darke's avatar

The funny thing is, lots of movie stars served in WWII—and many of them desperately tried NOT to be given "safe" assignments flying generals around, or worse making movies for the "war effort"!

Everybody knows about James Stewart starting out as a private so he wouldn't get stuck with REMF jobs (and getting stuck as an Instructor Pilot anyway for a few years before he was finally allowed to head up a bomber group over Germany, which he did for twenty combat missions before they promoted him to a desk job! (Operations Officer of the 453rd Bomb Group, and later Chief of Staff of the 2nd Combat wing, 2nd Air Division of the 8th Air Force. He claimed later in life it was THAT job which turned his hair grey....)

David Niven, not a major star but a name actor when the War broke out, somehow ended up doing both—working behind the lines as part of the "Phantom" reconnaissance GHQ Liaison Regiment including being a part of the D-Day Invasion, AND making movies for the English War Effort!

Christopher Lee, who had just started an acting career when the war broke out, trained to be a pilot but had an ocular condition that prevented him from it, so he ::coughs discreetly:: did this and that for RAF Intelligence—including sabotaging Nazi planes in North Africa as part of the Long Range Desert Group, but ::cough:: never EVER was a part of the Special Operations Executive ::cough, cough:: despite speaking eight languages including German, Spanish, Italian, French and Russian; knew a number of fairly important persons on both sides of the conflict; and tracked down Nazi war criminals both during and after the War ::coughs like I'm losing a lung!::... But nope, wasn't in SOE at all!

Cindy Watter's avatar

Christopher Lee, on his mother’s side, was related to the Borgias. What a man.

bruce somers's avatar

Don't forget Ted Williams either,not a movie star,but a skilled fighter pilot.

TCinLA's avatar

Let's not forget actor Wayne Morris, who had just arrived at the verge of being "A list" when the war broke out, who became a Naval Aviator and then had to use a family connection to his uncle, David McCampbell (later the Navy Ace of Aces) to get away from flying around on PR tours, who became the only actual "Hollywood Ace" in World War II, shooting down 10 Japanese planes as a member of VF-15, the Navy's "Top Guns of World War II." He was such a good fighter pilot that he was the guy who checked out the new replacements and certified them ready for operations. He returned to find he had missed his moment, and became "King of the B Westerns" after the war. His last role was his best, the cowardly Lieutenant Roget in "Paths of Glory," before he died of a heart attack while visiting Dave in his new command of the aircraft carrier Bon Homme Richard.

TCinLA's avatar

David Niven actually rose to be Chief of Intelligence in 21st Army Group. He makes a cameo appearance in "The Phantom Patrol," James Benn's latest "Billy Boyle World War II Mysteries" - in which he and the boys manage not to get caught by the Germans while running around in the Ardennes Forest at the outset of the Battle of the Bulge. (Seriously, if you like accurate WW2 history and a great mystery story, you can't go wrong with the series, but you have to read them in order because characters from previous books show up in later ones - I like the series so well I did a blurb on this one for Jim)

HI2thDoc's avatar

Lotta big name stars heroically stayed out of the service in order to make money and save their precious careers.

DR Darke's avatar

Yes, but quite a few served—most with distinction, some with valor, and others..."did their bit".

Many of those who couldn't serve because they were too old or were somehow 4F served in the Coast Guard or the Merchant Marine or in some other capacity—Humphrey Bogart, who's served in WWI, was deemed too old to serve in WWII but volunteered for patrol duty with the Coast Guard since he has his own boat, the SLUG NUTTY.

Patricia Williamson's avatar

Personally, I thought John Wayne was a terrible actor. I don't know why he was so popular. Maybe because he was "a man's man" or something.

I’m a Native Hawaiian WE WILL VOTE BLUE because WE are NOT WHITE and I worry about my family and my children in this F’d up political climate.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

Be proud, and don't vote for evil!

Being "white" is a highly overrated thing anyway, Morgan look at trump spokes-ghoul Herr Miller, he thinks being white is his greatest achievement. He is evil to the core.

Morgan's avatar

Totally agree!! I think hubby got Butt hurt🙄 he thinks I’m not paying enough attention to him cause I’m on Substack.. dude after 3 kids and more than decade together.. seriously??😂🤣😂

A Republican running for State Senate in Idaho recently yelled at his opponent to "go back where you came from!" This was following a question from a voter about whether discrimination exists in Idaho (he claimed it doesn't, natch, before shouting that racist ass statement).

The kicker? His opponent is Native American.

Fucking hell. (Saying that a lot this week.)

Bobbi's avatar

Exactly. Tell Steven Miller 2.79 million Native Americans would like him to crawl back under the rock or hellmouth from which he ascended.

Rebecca Elliott's avatar

My memory is iffy, at best (stroke), but I recently read of a Native American legislator (here's the iffy part...can't remember name or where) of whom a MAGA stated, "I wonder if he is here legally." Dear God!

Patricia Williamson's avatar

I'm wondering what the American Nazis have in store for Native Americans. I'm thinking put them in camps and take their land for personal use.

un poco loco's avatar

white people? take their land and put them in camps? I can't imagine why you'd think that!! (I've been hearing the QGP is already measuring the national parks for new drapes & living room furniture. Or oil rigs, at least.)

I'm worried about all of this, but most of all for anyone who looks like they're from south of the border... like a good part of my family, including all of my grandkids. Nope, not worried, exactly -- more like completely fucking terrified.

un poco loco's avatar

Never thought we might see worse treatment of Native peoples than what has been done since Columbus showed up. The treatment of the kids taken away to be "educated" was horrific -- researchers are still finding graves here and in Canada.

During my misspent youth in the south, we used to call people who are now MAGATs poor white trash. The difference between then and now is that back then they didn't take it as a complement.

Bubbly goes with everything! (That's my story and I am sticking to it 🥂)

Judy Luchsinger's avatar

I would like to suggest the Roederer L'Hermitage Rose, grown from grapes in Mendocino county, CA. It is vinted and bottled there. Mendocino is the county north of Sonoma county in California. It is our favorite sparkling wine. ( 'champagne' )

Thank you. I love a dry rose'.

Hmmmm, tequila. I have a favorite as well, but am out right now. I still have time to change my mind, get some and join you.

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Depends on the Tequila Rick, some are meant for shooters, others are savored! There’s a place I love in Mahual Mexico that has Tequila tasting, with over 100 varieties…iIRC walking back to my place was a challenge. Great idea, enjoy!!

Rick Calegari's avatar

Thanks Patrick. My wife and I sampled some good ones at a wedding in Cabo a few years back. The tequila tasting in Mahual sounds like it was quite the treat.

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

That’s a grand idea Kay-EI, perhaps I’ll do the same, with a flute or two of champagne!!

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

I think we're going to be OK on election day. it's what comes after that worries me. but I think we'll come through that OK in the end as well

Deborah Hunter's avatar

Did you hear Kasich on MSNBC yesterday? Telling us we will all be ok and will survive. Easy for him to say. I'm sure he's financially well off and younger. I'm in my mid 70's and planning on retiring soon. I have SS and a 401 K. That's it. No husband or family to support me. If Trump gets in and messes with my SS and my 401K tanks, I don't have years left to recover like younger people do. I was ok during 2008 and 2022 stock market slump because I was still working. I won't have that option to work or outwait Trump ever leaving office. These are real worries for us seniors and I know I'm in better shape than many retired citizens. All I worked for these last few years will be gone. It makes me sick just thinking of it.

Mingo's avatar

I'm in the same boat. 70 and getting ready to retire. Childless dog lady, widow, estranged from what's left of family, abandoned relationships that had become toxic due to right wing hate. I have much to lose also.

Well said. Absolutely no doubt that trump as president would cause A) steadily increasing inflation via both his universal tariffs and the increased debt load from reducing corporate and high-end taxes further, causing even more bond issuance and money creation: B) fulfilling the long time Republican wet dream of reducing Social Security and Medicare payments (God help a retiree's standard of living): and C) tanking the stock market (so 401k or other retirement assets) due to the eventual realization by business and investment heads that the once stable, reliable set of laws and regulations that American businesses could make future plans for their companies on will be tossed out the window in a law-breaking, impulsive trump administration that picks corporate winners and losers based on trump's whims and enemy list. All these outcomes will affect retirees far more than people still working, whose incomes will at least keep pace close to the much higher inflation we'd soon see.

Dave Drell's avatar

How can seniors in Florida support the flimflam nan when he threatens SS & Medicare? and AZ too. Isn’t that political suicide to promote those ideas?

Betsy L's avatar

You're scaring people who depend on SS and 401(k)s. I have no doubt that you're absolutely right, but I'm not sure that posting this after two people talk about how afraid they are is helpful.

steve robertshaw's avatar

I hope like hell that trump doesn't get the electoral college fluke again this time. But I happen to think it's important to be prepared and see reality. Scary is exactly how things are right now.

Doc Blase''s avatar

It's the fascists who are planning on doing this that are "scaring people". Being scared is a good start but getting mad and fighting is much better.

Deborah:

This is HUGE. Even without the poisonous effect of Trump and crew, it’s going to be hard enough on seniors—doubly worse for senior women for all the reasons that women’s economic challenges have always clipped them behind their knees. And who makes up the majority of those living a century or more? Women. Of course.

Your 401k doesn't have to tank. Talk to an advisor about your concerns. There are most likely ways to move your investments so you won't get wiped out. Right now I have a ton of cash in CDs at 4.5% to 5% interest. Thinking about selling stock and moving to conservative funds or cash You might miss out on a little upside before you can get back in if things turn out well, but you might sleep better in the mean time.

Doc Blase''s avatar

Good thing a fascist government can't just seize your assets because you're an "enemy of the State."

steve robertshaw's avatar

If Kamala is projected to win in the early morning hours of Nov. 6, things will be fine (or at least steady-as-she-goes) for the stock market. But if it's trump, all bets are off. His fans might go crazy and push the markets temporarily up in their enthusiasm. But at some point the reality WILL set in . So yeah, I think it's safest to sit on the sidelines as of Nov.4. (Not a soothsayer, so act accordingly)

Fear not. We are going to win. Hey, I’m 74, I get it. But we’re going to win.

Putting down an armed insurrection is most certainly within the scope of his presidential duties.

I abhor violence. But it's way past time to GET FUCKING REAL. Maga are domestic terrorists. Time to shoot to kill rioters, election violence from maga.

Dave Drell's avatar

Am i allowed to say, this time shoot to kill?

steve robertshaw's avatar

Trump famously asked if "they could be shot in the legs" referring to protesters while he was president. This guy lives in such a fantasy void.

arne link's avatar

IDK, they are Americans no matter how misguided they are. I think we have to wait until they start shooting, then all bets are off.

Mary Lou Williams's avatar

Maybe that was ScOTUs plan all along?

Walt Svirsky's avatar

Joe Biden has not done one thing related to the new “immunity power” POTUS was granted by SCOTUS. Does anyone think Donald Drumpf would do the same? It would be a nightmare of epic proportions.

I hear you, it would so hard for a lot of people to leave for a lot of different reasons.

Relatedly, Beau from the Fifth Column has an interesting video on this question: when is it time to leave? (he's talking about moving from an extremist state like Texas rather than leaving the country, but I think it still applies): https://youtu.be/O74huDYBPbI?si=3iv8IMSFjsU3Lo5M

Let’s start our own compound in-country somewhere. (Yeah, right)

We are same. Families here, not going anywhere. Seniors, but not feeble. Yet would likely be knocked way back with a dramatic move.

I'm wondering if I'll be able to survive in a Fascist Country. But my time on this earth will be over sooner than others. I worry about my children and their children. As for people who vote for him, you deserve what you get and I hope you enjoy it.

Carl Babcock's avatar

I agree, election day itself shouldn't be a problem. Trump has done nothing to bring in new voters, and plenty to drive away anyone on the fence. What could happen after scares the shit out of me. Luckily, we have a sane person in the White House this time, and I truly believe he will be prepared for the bullshit

Gary D's avatar

The good news is - if Shitler and his mouth- breather army decide to foment some sort of Timothy McVeigh campaign of violence - the current Commander in Chief won’t be passively watching it on TV, and the DOJ won’t be run by some law clerk who mows Clarence Thomas’s lawn (assuming Merrick Garland doesn’t wait three years to act.) And lest we forget - the Supremes gave Biden blanket immunity to do whatever the hell he needs to do to put down Insurrection ‘24, including any congressional fuckery. But you can bet, it will be a fucking mess.

Is there an orange jumpsuit large enough for the Melon Felon and his diaper? Will he fall asleep at his arraignment? Inquiring minds want to know.

Mark Slattery's avatar

Apparently, trump has called an emergency press conference but is over an hour late. I'm guessing his spray tanner got clogged.

Dan Beach's avatar

Makes me wonder what Trump is doing when he's an hour - three hours - late. Detoxing? Pouting? Trying to find new writers? Extra hair? (The spray tanner is a distinct possibility.) And people have been leaving the Trump rallies even before he arrives, because he's late. I consider it a very good sign.

funnyhaha's avatar

I think they have to dose him, then wait for the meds to take effect.

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Snorting a couple big lines only takes a couple of seconds, the result is nearly immediate…filling his diaper a couple minutes more, changing the soiled diaper, depending on who’s around to take on the disgusting task, maybe the reason for his tardiness fun!

Maybe he ran out of clean diapers and sent an aide to buy a few more boxes.

Does anyone else think turd is intentionally sabotaging his election? As the outrage settles, the Nazi fest was an indescribably vile, vulgar, nakedly hate spewing event.

If the race is "tied"" or close, every Hispanic and Black vote is being sought. So Turd's maga base is all in. So turd throws a vicious hate fest? Then has plans to rally afterwards for the Latino vote? How. many of his teetering supporters saw that and decided "now I'm not voting for him".

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Possibly, but for a guy who claims he doesn’t use a teleprompter, the whole thing likely scripted Ann!

Karla's avatar

I figured he was late because he was trying to figure out how to distance himself from his Nazi rally without offending his supporters who see it as a feature, not a bug. Turns out he hasn’t addressed it at all…smart move.

She definitely endorsed/voted for Harris, it’s just not on her IG page for whatever reason, but was in her IG story: https://parade.com/news/ariana-grande-takes-strong-political-stance-ahead-election-endorse-kamala-harris

But... "Black people love watermelon! Latinos have a lot of babies!" This is CUTTING EDGE material he's putting out here! I guess we're just too dumb and woke to understand his level of sophistication.

There’s a few neighborhoods here in ChiTown I would like to drop him off on a street corner.

Tony needs a career. Because he is not having one now

Walt Svirsky's avatar

Doc, he can have as brilliant a career as another MAGA hero, Kyle Rittenhouse.

That reminds me, why didn't they have the baby-faced murder give a speech at the hate rally? He could have cried and begged everyone to vote for Shitler.

How about finding a spot for maggots in Russia somewhere…”Only for American Maggots.” Then they can say all the shit they want and never enter AMERICA again! Damn-this is disgusting!

Nancy Potter's avatar

Somebody of MAGA persuasion tried moving to Russia and it wasn't the MAGA paradise they'd been promised. Oh, and they can't bring their guns in.

Perhaps launched into space on Muck’s spaceship! I’m willing to pay for that! But a lifetime in Russia would be such fun to watch!

Disgusting, disturbing degenerates Tess!

Sundowning grandpa Nazi Pants??? That’s it. Right there! 😂😂😂😂. Amazing these assholes are so full of themselves they think it’s ok to say this crap. Is this even real life? 🤦‍♀️

Most of them don't even know that Puerto Rico is an American territory, and that they are American citizens. The lack of education is truly mind blowing with MAGA.

Lara Trump said they have lawsuits in EIGHTY ONE states, so maybe it won't make a difference to Magats.🤣🤣🤣

God knows, we did try it but it didn't fly.

In their racist bubble it’s funny as hell. Trump made it ok to be an above ground racist. 😠

I’m reminded of the old saying, “Give a man enough rope and he’ll hang himself.”

I’m all for it. The more he talks, the more he comes off as a total A-hole. But, that’s what his MAGA group likes about him. He speaks their language.

He’s the new Pied Piper. Only instead of the flute, he’s driving a dump truck and dropping garbage for his followers to feast upon. “Let them eat sewage”.

SeekingReason's avatar

Zee Zee…I completely agree!

Everyone involved in the rally knew what the comic was going to say. The irony of McNobody's jokes is that the actual funny part is his bombing in front of a national audience. Even funnier is that Dumpster is claiming he never heard of the guy and his handlers are still arguing about what to do. In the meantime, Puerto Ricans and others are making sure the island of garbage line goes viral.

More trump rallies! please! It is delightful to watch them hit the wall and blast into flames! This will be a blowout. But the GOP Felon & Fascist supporters need people to hear (from the right wing owned media conglomerates) that the race is close. They need to tell us, something must be wrong when they lose! THEIR polls said they’d win…so there must be something wrong here.

But we’re not buying their BS. They hold rallies to insult every group of people on earth who aren’t white christian nationalist Nazi/Fascist loving dotards.

Let them have more rope! All they want.

And if they decide a 2nd violent coup is needed. They’ll have to dodge the bullets of the National Guard this time. Orange Felon can’t make the orders, Biden will. And frankly, I think Biden just might be pretty sick & tired of these jizz & bleach drinkers. Maybe instead of warrior helmets, they can wear ear pads.

They DON’T HAVE THE VOTES. Otherwise, they wouldn’t need to threaten so much!

It's particularly rich to hear a clearly racist comedian defend himself by the usual "hey-you-guys-are-snowflakes-and-just-don't-know-what's-funny" excuse. Of course, Shady Vance said basically the same thing when he got up to speak: It's just that, folks, "we have to get past this", after all a joke is a joke! Sure, Shady, nothing to see here!

Also, if I could personally throttle the assholes on the far-right that haul out the already super-old line of, "take your tampon out" or calling Governor Walz "Tampon Tim", I would throttle away with glee in my heart! If nothing else, it's a very thinly veiled way of insinuating someone's a wimp, like a woman (because only women use tampons). Well, I'm a woman and I'm sure as hell no wimp, or a snowflake, or any other label the far-right wishes to place on me just because I'm female. Hell, I'm pretty certain I have bigger metaphorical balls then a lot of men I've known (and unfortunately, have worked for) in my life.

And while I'm at it, let me also say that just because I'm well past the age of possible fertilization (thank the universe!) it DOES NOT mean that I, along with millions of older women, no longer can or should have a say in the freedom of choice struggle, not to mention the larger implications of tampering with women's health initiatives, insurance coverage and government interference over the same! This topic, too, has become another passive-agressive joke among the far-right fools and to this I offer a hardy FUCK OFF and mind your own business!

Did Tucker bronzeballs just concede that Kamala is going to be the next president? Why yes, yes he did. Followed by him going into full spasm of body and brains. Good clip, hadn’t seen that before now.

SuNew's avatar

I know! He gave her 85 million votes. 4 million over the winner, Joe! 🤣

When I first saw the clip of Tucker freaking out I had the sound muted, and just watching that spasmodic episode of his I swear I thought the video had been sped up.

The thing that makes me sickest is that Stephen Miller, who is of Jewish descent, followed that act and broadcast his preference that "America [should be] for Americans, and ONLY Americans." Miller's relatives emigrated here from Eastern Europe at the turn of the 20th century, same as mine. I'm third-generation American and proud of it. Does he think his hateful rhetoric doesn't apply to him because he can "pass"?

He doesn't realize that fascists always need to go after an "other" and nobody is safe, even if he was goose-stepping along this whole time. Aside from targeting immigrants and LGBTQ people, who does he imagine is next? He has made common cause with the people who marched in the streets screaming "the Jews will not replace us!" and wave actual Nazi flags.

They're not even being subtle about it. Jews are on the "enemies" list too and his devotion to MAGA won't mean a damn thing.

Trump's Nazi hate rally was disgusting. And of course Vance was out there the next day gaslighting everyone and telling us all we can't take a "joke". As a 60 year old childless widow who is a "cat lady" in principle if not reality, I am sick of all the toxic MAGA mansplaining (I'm talking to you too Bezos)
