ok, there is a longer clip of Drunk Kudlow that Bob Cesca plays on his podcast, where Kudlow calls Dana Perino "Chuck Todd." it's been edited out of the clip I used. when I went looking for the longer clip, google pointed me to a twitter account that has since been deleted. does anyone have a link to the longer clip? it's wild
Is Kudlow a replicant of Rudy Colludy, where the once sane have become unmoored from sensibilities and soaked in ethanol, which coincided with their descent into MAGA fever?
Trust me, HI2thDoc—Giuliani was paranoid and racist long before now! He attacked David Dinkins, who he ran against twice, using racially-charged language, and hyped up the Central Park Jogger assault as a sign of how dangerous Black people were.
Hello, my name is Stephanie, and I’m a schadenfreude addict. I have gone zero days without having schadenfreude…I need to admit something to this group. When I see the people who voted to strip us of OUR rights realizing they are now losing THEIR rights, I have zero sympathy. ZERO. Nada. If it were possible for sympathy to fall into the negative numbers, that’s where my level of sympathy would lie. The only thing that might get me through the next four years is the promise of watching these stupid motherfuckers get everything they voted for(I know I’m a horrible person).
No, we are not horrible people. We are human, and this is the result of continually being on the receiving end of bullshit and psychological abuse by morons. Our reaction is the one well-grounded, sane people have after they've had enough or too much. The people unbothered and reserving sympathies and a give-a-shit attitude are toast.
I'm with you, Stephanie. I spent nine years commenting and making posts and sharing his insanity and cruelty, thinking all the time, "Because surely they'll see him for he is, we just have to keep showing them." Then I voted for hope, joy, a way forward, and they chose the hate and fear. So I wash my hands of them. They have condemned so many without means or privilege to hell and handed over government to the Russians.
It's clear the ONLY way they're going to learn is when it bites them in their own asses and I'm here for it.
Thanks for saying all this Stephanie and everyone. You say exactly how I feel every second of every day. The fact that I'm still petrified for the future is only interrupted by periods of schadenfreude and hoping that these stupid motherfuckers will end up being MORE miserable than the rest of us who voted Blue for Kamala and Democracy!
And as for T-Shirts, could there be colors other than just white or black, please!👚
Yeah, I look everywhere for that small violin the guy who sold it to me assured me was the World's Smallest, but I can't find it. The cats must have it under the couch.
No, you are not horrible. Sane people disengage from those who are uninformed and dangerous. So, not showing concern for folks who made a bad decision despite everyone telling them it's a bad decision is actually part of the process of GROWTH FOR THEM when they finally realize they did something stupid and LEARN from it.
Hi Stephanie. My name is Mark, I'm a schadenfreude addict too. I could just read column after column by Jeff filled with such examples of the low-information voter being stunned to find out the price of eggs has, in fact, doubled. And that their dear leader no longer needs them.
It is surreal that a pack of criminally insane dumb shits are taking control of the government in a few weeks. And the sane smart people are giving it to them.
Moral degenerates and Fox hosts seem to be what T💩p wants surrounding him. And yes, his sociopathic coke-addicted son, did swipe his gums with a crystalline substance. I’ve seen that move before from an old (and now deceased) friend who was similarly addicted.
thanks for the follow up, these comments for some reason have just motivated me to finally do something with esophageal reflux. Jeff's site doubles as a public service announcement at times!
You mean you don't want to run the risk of going into supraventricular tachycardia possibly converting to cardiac arrest from Bolivian Marching powder? Those days are in the rear view mirror for me also, but the 70's and 80's were a blast.
A lot of us from the 70s-80s I don't remember rubbing it on my gums though. Just up my schnozel or smoked it... when it was called base. So glad I survived that time in my life.
Funny thing, when it's pure enough a li'l freeze is all you need.
A pharmacy tech gave me an empty Mallincrodt jar (yes, it has a few legal uses) but it still had a layer of dust inside. That's all that was needed. Note this was 40+ yrs ago
I tried it once, it was not for me. I'm a high energy person , I definitely do not need speed.Saw a good friend get addicted( an actor ) I never understood the attraction. I always thought it was a guy thing, or for posers.
The devil's dandruff has taken its toll on many people over the years including an acquaintance who left this world in a hottub. His poor wife who was eight months pregnant, found him and put the word out that he died from acute cocaine intoxication. Sad as hell that his daughter never got to have a dad in her life. Wondering if Junior's habit is the reason why inflated lips Kimberly gargoyle are no longer together? She may have actually had the good sense to leave him and the MAGA shit circus.
CoinStar takes a percentage, I helped a friend who had been saving coins from tips in a SPARKLETTS bottle , we used paper wrappers from the bank, it came to over ,$400.00.
Thank you for “How was Kamala supposed to message… “. I’m so tired of people blaming Democrats for this mess because they didn’t have good enough messaging. Last night on Ari Mebler Peggy Noonan was praising Trump’s messaging because it was simple. Demagoguery usually is. She said Kamala used too many words. Expressing a coherent thought usually does take a few words
Yes there are morons but it’s hard to fathom they are a majority. I still think rigged. Somebody should be confirming the “bullet ballots” in swing states and making sure the mail-in ballots made it. This whole thing doesn’t pass the smell test.
100 %. Between Musk and Putin, no problem to rig the electronic votes. What galls me is that Kamala didn't fight back. I really wanted Waltz in our government. He iis so normal.
Thanks for the reminder, Debra. Repugs have been trotting out the “too many words” b.s. as long as I can remember. Always playing to the stupid in the room.
The dumbasses waiting for a stimulus check have yet to realize that Donnie doesn't need them anymore. And they're going to find out what the rest of us have always known - Donnie doesn't give a shit about them. He wouldn't walk across the street to spit on them if they were on fire.
During World War II so many ships were sunk that lots of cargo washed ashore on the shores of many Pacific Islands. These freebies were so welcome that for years after the war ended the Islanders prayed and conducted religious rituals in the hope that more cargo would wash ashore. This was called a cargo cult.
In a similar manner, stimulus checks washed ashore during the pandemic, and now Trump's followers are praying that more are on the way.
WY voters prove their state name should be shortened to be pronounced “Why?” They shitcanned Liz Cheney because she called the insurrection an insurrection. Nice job electing Lummis, just another low wattage pawn
The brain damage I’ll suffer from shaking my damn head so much over the next 4 years is going to be severe. This shit show is so ridiculous, if saw it in a movie I’d consider it bad writing.
There are three live streams on YouTube (one that will run through Thanksgiving, one devoted to episodes in space only, and a third just because) all with comments threads so we can riff together.
IIRC Clockwork Orange was a must see when I was studying film Kay-EI, since you mentioned it here, I’m going to compare and contrast to the current epoch thanks!!
This is “God’s Plan”? Paraphrasing the late great George Carlin, this doesn’t seem like it’s the work of an all-knowing, all powerful loving and benevolent being. It’s more like the work of an incompetent office temp with a bad attitude.
No one can compare to George Carlin. Master wordsmith. I can never think of him without laughing about his talk covering the meaning of "down the tubes"!
Thanks for your closing message. I did stop reading your stack (and everyone else’s) for two days after the election, but that made me realize that your writing was one of the things helping to keep me SANE. Thanks for all you do.
Eric, welcome back. Jeff's keeping most of us away from 5th story windows, or showing up in large groups at the local psych in patient hospital. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🗽
Seb Gorka as Counterintelligence Director? A semi Nazi? A person who was unable to pass FBI background security check? Russian talking head Tulsi Gabbard, also an apologist for Bashar of Syria, again, unable to pass a background check… JFC no wonder Donald doesn’t want these background checks… And then Bleach Bottle Blond Bondi, who can be bought for $25,000 as she has shown all of us, also an election denier, an associate of COS Wiley.. I call this BS the Florida Mafia, for some reason Donald wants his people to be from Florida… well I call it a Confederate Cabinet who are assigned to “hollow out” the departments they will lead… it’s the same fascist playbook used worldwide. Guys rest up this weekend… we got serious work to do.
Can I be a little pissed off? I’ve been getting some...”Put your big girl panties on. Get over it!”
Bill Maher goes so far as to chastise us for being upset. As if we’re letting Douche Bag Donnie ruin our Christmas.
It’s our fault. We are letting Douche Bag Donnie do this to us.
And, how some couple in who-gives-a-shit Maine or Minnesota move to a community sounded by Trumpsters and get snowed in and are amazed that their neighbors helped plow their driveway. Really! “They really are nice people!We apologize for thinking you were morons voting for a sociopath. When you are really just nice, sweet neighbors who voted for a fucking sociopath.”
Oh, for fuck sake.
How in the fuck do people think we Libtards got to be so fucking angry? DUH!!!
Because we keep fixing Republicans shit, and they keep coming back shitting on the same fucking thing we just cleaned up!
And guess what? We’re tired of it. We are fed up with it. So, If I want to sit and eat fucking turkey by myself and drink a bottle of fucking scotch instead of having my asshole family over and pretend I didn’t want to poison the fucking mashed potatoes, let me be.
Let me cry. Scream. Break Gramma’s fucking dishes. And stop telling me to put on my Big Girl panties, or I’ll bunch them up and stick them down your mother fucking throat.
I’m curious...have you ever heard a Republican admit one of their politicians screwed the pooch? Ever?
JackAss sends his followers over to the Capital, watches them on TV, and does nothing. And they still vote for him. It’s Nancy Pelosi's fault. It’s always someone else's fault. And we do-gooders, take the high road and do the right thing. I’m done with, “Do the right thing.” It isn’t workin.
These Republicans can piss and moan and cry for four years...that the election was stolen. Well, why the fuck didn’t we steal it again? Sorry, this all just makes me crazy. And, yes the hypocrisy is staggering.
You have just articulated three weeks of my garbled thoughts in a way that made me laugh at myself till I cried. How the fuck could this be my fault? I finally answered, it's not.
OMG, leon is going to convert the treasury to his crypto-whatever and then steal it, isn’t he. Not even a question. And donny, who i don’t feel sorry for when he’s finished serving putin’s purposes, will be waiting for leon to hand him some of the virtual coins to hold in his tiny hands if he hasn’t already encountered a 5th story window somewhere.
If Randi is saying it, I’d put the money I soon won’t have on it happening. Powell says he’s not leaving the Federal Reserve, so perhaps he can stop this? Knowing what safeguards, if any, are still in place is beyond my non-pay grade.
Haha that’s a good scenario😂We need a Substack where we can write our “end times” stories!! Humour and creativity are the only way to survive this living nightmare😱
“Steal” is the operative word. Who will control the Federal Reserve and Treasury on Jan 21? Add a few $trillion to the national debt for Elon and Donnie and Vlad.
I simply cannot fathom thinking myself such an example of American Exceptionalism that I would decide to call my state Senator and request an exception to a law I supported be made just especially for me! Trump’s “very special boy” mentality is contagious.🐀💩
ok, there is a longer clip of Drunk Kudlow that Bob Cesca plays on his podcast, where Kudlow calls Dana Perino "Chuck Todd." it's been edited out of the clip I used. when I went looking for the longer clip, google pointed me to a twitter account that has since been deleted. does anyone have a link to the longer clip? it's wild
Is Kudlow a replicant of Rudy Colludy, where the once sane have become unmoored from sensibilities and soaked in ethanol, which coincided with their descent into MAGA fever?
There’s a fuckload of the miasma of MAGA mooks out there HI2, they all appear to be inflicted with similar symptoms, hmm???
Trust me, HI2thDoc—Giuliani was paranoid and racist long before now! He attacked David Dinkins, who he ran against twice, using racially-charged language, and hyped up the Central Park Jogger assault as a sign of how dangerous Black people were.
https://www.thenation.com/premium/politics/rudy-giuliani-david-dinkins/
HILARIOUS!
every time I see the name, Larry Kudlow, my brain tries to tell me,
"Lisa Kudrow"
Except Lisa Kudrow isn’t a MAGA stooge
And she’s way more lucid than Kudlow.
agreed !
wasn't implying she was, shitstick
Didn’t say you were.
::"Lisa Kudrow"::
That's who I thought everybody was talking about at first, James Starr!
" I can't shay definnally thizh morning ." * Larry Kudlow.
LOL!!
Gonna tshake all day shuday a sober up I schware where’s Laffer ? Laffer curve guy?
Picturing your show personality as I read this Kristy, ‘Live from the Improv’ definitely cracked a smile!!
Tough road ahead, finding that drunken Kudlow video clip Jeff , the search is on!
He certainly was slurring his words! If I find the unedited one I’ll give you the link…
You are DEFINITELY on the wrong Substack!
The Nazi Bar is that way—just turn hard Right and keep going further Right until you find your cult.
Are you talking to me ? I haven’t a clue what or why you thought giving Jeff a link and you’re on a rant about Nazi’s.
I was talking to you—am I mistaken about your politics? I thought you were slandering Biden again....
No I must have misinterpreted what you were saying. My statement to Jeff that if I find a link to the original video I’d send it to him.
I’ve been a Democrat since I was 18. I’m almost 68 now.
Also I’ve never slandered Biden.
Then I misunderstood you—I'm sorry.
Who WERE you referring to...?
I found a link to the video on X but I don’t go on that site anymore. Well I’ve never been on it since Twitter.
So I can’t get the link from there.
Put it up, you will find it!
Don't see it. Maybe on X, but I haven't been there in years. https://x.com/MichaelJElston/status/1771644404698173542
That’s where I found it but haven’t been on there since it became X
Maybe the Wayback Machine?
I tried the Wayback Machine and it couldn’t come up with anything! 😒

You are not a horrible person and there are many people who agree with you…hmmmm…maybe we’re all horrible? NAH
No, we are not horrible people. We are human, and this is the result of continually being on the receiving end of bullshit and psychological abuse by morons. Our reaction is the one well-grounded, sane people have after they've had enough or too much. The people unbothered and reserving sympathies and a give-a-shit attitude are toast.
You are right!
YES, Kathy. All of this.
Can we get tee shirts and bumperstickers?
hahaha
Have the Palestinian protesters gone into hiding?
How are all the policemen and firemen going to feel when their union is disbanded?
How do you like being uninvited to Thanksgiving dinner...by your mom?
How are you feeling having to protect your undocumented parents?
How's forced celibacy going for the bros?
Sorry, not sorry.
Where can a Haitian go to get away from the mad dogs& cats with AK47s of O-HI-O
But you’re our kind of horrible person😈😁and we’re with you💪🏼
😂😂😂
This just reminds me of my favorite lines from Don’t Look Up: “ I’m looking forward to the jobs the comet will bring”.
Almost makes me want to wear a t-shirt that says We told you so.
Reminds me of those campaign signs that are posted all around this red neighborhood that I live in that say “don’t blame me I voted for Trump”. Ha.
I’m looking for one that says “Don’t blame us, we voted for her.” I’d post that loudly & proudly.
I'm with you, Stephanie. I spent nine years commenting and making posts and sharing his insanity and cruelty, thinking all the time, "Because surely they'll see him for he is, we just have to keep showing them." Then I voted for hope, joy, a way forward, and they chose the hate and fear. So I wash my hands of them. They have condemned so many without means or privilege to hell and handed over government to the Russians.
It's clear the ONLY way they're going to learn is when it bites them in their own asses and I'm here for it.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
I also have no sympathy for these people AND I laugh out loud in a kind of hysterical manner. We TOLD them this would happen!
Repeatedly, from Hillary Clinton on to the present. They just won't learn!
Thanks for saying all this Stephanie and everyone. You say exactly how I feel every second of every day. The fact that I'm still petrified for the future is only interrupted by periods of schadenfreude and hoping that these stupid motherfuckers will end up being MORE miserable than the rest of us who voted Blue for Kamala and Democracy!
And as for T-Shirts, could there be colors other than just white or black, please!👚
I think blue would be appropriate.
Yeah, I look everywhere for that small violin the guy who sold it to me assured me was the World's Smallest, but I can't find it. The cats must have it under the couch.
People who say "Karma will get them" are schadenfreude addicts needing a hit.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. - H. L. Mencken
No, you are not horrible. Sane people disengage from those who are uninformed and dangerous. So, not showing concern for folks who made a bad decision despite everyone telling them it's a bad decision is actually part of the process of GROWTH FOR THEM when they finally realize they did something stupid and LEARN from it.
Hi Stephanie. My name is Mark, I'm a schadenfreude addict too. I could just read column after column by Jeff filled with such examples of the low-information voter being stunned to find out the price of eggs has, in fact, doubled. And that their dear leader no longer needs them.
You know, Mark, you just made me realize that we should quit SA (schadenfreude anonymous) and lean into our addictions for the next four years!
It is surreal that a pack of criminally insane dumb shits are taking control of the government in a few weeks. And the sane smart people are giving it to them.
You are my people!
Well, if you are then I’m here to keep you company. I’m old and all out of fucks to give to such idiots‼️
HI, STEPHANIE!
😂🤣😂
Moral degenerates and Fox hosts seem to be what T💩p wants surrounding him. And yes, his sociopathic coke-addicted son, did swipe his gums with a crystalline substance. I’ve seen that move before from an old (and now deceased) friend who was similarly addicted.
it's a move I've done myself, decades ago
glad you are semi-normal now! lol
I'm too old to abuse drugs. my heart would explode
I was counting on red wine to get me through the rest of my life but up pops this thing called GIRD. So now all I've got is M&Ms.
Do you mean GERD? Gastric reflux? Ask Dr for generic for Prilosec, Omeprazole DR. One pill daily, I take 40 mg. Probably OTC options too.
thanks for the follow up, these comments for some reason have just motivated me to finally do something with esophageal reflux. Jeff's site doubles as a public service announcement at times!
I had terrible GERD, I take Pantoprozole. Not the best but It's covered by Medicare.
GERD Rx also covered by Medicare Part D. I pay -0-
I thought it stood for gastrointestinal reflux disease but was wrong, it's GERD. Probably inherited from my Dad along with bad knees.
Peanut & Caramel are my favorites; regular are too sweet/boring.
With Peanut you can convince yourself you’re eating something nutritious 🤪
You mean you don't want to run the risk of going into supraventricular tachycardia possibly converting to cardiac arrest from Bolivian Marching powder? Those days are in the rear view mirror for me also, but the 70's and 80's were a blast.
💙💙
me too, otherwise...
Being quasi-normal in a country full of execrable tosspots makes recognition simple Tess!!
Same here but after 30 years, I have no desire whatsoever.
A lot of us from the 70s-80s I don't remember rubbing it on my gums though. Just up my schnozel or smoked it... when it was called base. So glad I survived that time in my life.
I visited a friend in NYC, found him addicted to free basing.
Free base, aka crack
Bad news 😱
oh, I rubbed my gums among other places
Funny thing, when it's pure enough a li'l freeze is all you need.
A pharmacy tech gave me an empty Mallincrodt jar (yes, it has a few legal uses) but it still had a layer of dust inside. That's all that was needed. Note this was 40+ yrs ago
Ohh I do remember the pharmaceutical coke yikes.
We got it as a blue-tinted liquid in the operating room, they tinted it blue so you didn't mix it up with the injectable drugs on your sterile field.
When I tried it my friend had pharmaceutical grade cocaine, I was not impressed.
Me too Jeff! Those days are long gone but this 70 year old lady knows that gum-numbing move when she sees it …
😂😂😂
Ah, yes. The 80's!
Do tell Jeff!!
me too.
I tried it once, it was not for me. I'm a high energy person , I definitely do not need speed.Saw a good friend get addicted( an actor ) I never understood the attraction. I always thought it was a guy thing, or for posers.
Wow, that was pretty obvious wasn't it? Trump was also wiping his schnozz. What's up with these degenerates?
Trump Sr. snorts crushed Adderall, according to witnesses. Dr. Ronnie Jackson is his Doctor Roberts.
Like father, like son Paula!!
Exactly, Patrick. The rotten fruit falls next to the tree!
The douche doesn't fall far from the bag.
Love it!

I hope she writes a tell-all book but I’m betting her signature is on an NDA.
Didn't know. Perhaps he prefers his coke over women now.
He's been hangin' with Gaetz, maybe his tastes have changed to females " on the younger side ."
Yep Derek, it’s fairly common!
I've been scrounging bitcoin from between cushions for years. Got a jar going. Can't wait to change it at one of those grocery store machines.

Thank you for “How was Kamala supposed to message… “. I’m so tired of people blaming Democrats for this mess because they didn’t have good enough messaging. Last night on Ari Mebler Peggy Noonan was praising Trump’s messaging because it was simple. Demagoguery usually is. She said Kamala used too many words. Expressing a coherent thought usually does take a few words
We're besieged by stupidity.
The morons who believed that Republitards are the party for
“the working man” are about to get
a rude awakening.
There are idiots out there suggesting that Dems should start dumbing down their language to appeal to these morons. 🤦🏻♀️
Fuck that! How about the morons learning something?
And BORE us into submission ?!
“Nazis are bad for you, don’t vote for them.”
Simple enough?
She's up there with Kudlow in inebriation.
And irrelevancy.
Yes there are morons but it’s hard to fathom they are a majority. I still think rigged. Somebody should be confirming the “bullet ballots” in swing states and making sure the mail-in ballots made it. This whole thing doesn’t pass the smell test.
100 %. Between Musk and Putin, no problem to rig the electronic votes. What galls me is that Kamala didn't fight back. I really wanted Waltz in our government. He iis so normal.
I couldn’t stomach peggys drivel. Always with a certain ‘tude I detest..
Yes, "drunk 'splaining" is the worst.
Crypt keeper Noonan? She's still around?
Yeah - wasn’t that her at the gym with Maureen Dowd… 😒
Still flippin' her hair around !
👆👆👆‼️
Can I Like that TWICE??
Thanks for the reminder, Debra. Repugs have been trotting out the “too many words” b.s. as long as I can remember. Always playing to the stupid in the room.
Ari going to be on the unemployment line. Or worse soon.
She's an alcoholic who pickled her brain long ago,, who lives in 1980 mentally.
The dumbasses waiting for a stimulus check have yet to realize that Donnie doesn't need them anymore. And they're going to find out what the rest of us have always known - Donnie doesn't give a shit about them. He wouldn't walk across the street to spit on them if they were on fire.
Besides, why does he need to buy their support anymore? He's already promised them they won't have to vote after this.
I love that last sentence. 😂
Figures, the couch fuckers voted for free money. They are too stupid to realize that was because of the pandemic!
During World War II so many ships were sunk that lots of cargo washed ashore on the shores of many Pacific Islands. These freebies were so welcome that for years after the war ended the Islanders prayed and conducted religious rituals in the hope that more cargo would wash ashore. This was called a cargo cult.

Good call HI2!!
And for Noeth Dakota- DUH ?
Stupid week…after stupid week…after stupid week…after stupid week….after stupid week…..ARGH!!! Have a lovely Saturday everyone!
Dumb... dumb... dumb... dumb... dumb... dum de dum dum dum.
Dumb and Dumber Perhaps?
No doubt Jeff could do two or three dumb-as fuck items for each
day of the week. The republitards & Faux Newsers could easily fill each day.
The brain damage I’ll suffer from shaking my damn head so much over the next 4 years is going to be severe. This shit show is so ridiculous, if saw it in a movie I’d consider it bad writing.
It may be real life, but it’s still bad writing and we’re being forced to watch it. Like Clockwork Orange.
Or Mystery Science Theater....which I loved!
Same! Watching those awful movies was very much worth it because of the commentary.
Those wonderful, hilarious robots!
Mystery Science Theatre is still playing on Google TV…I watch it often!
JOEL & the BOTS ! 💙💙💙
There are three live streams on YouTube (one that will run through Thanksgiving, one devoted to episodes in space only, and a third just because) all with comments threads so we can riff together.
IIRC Clockwork Orange was a must see when I was studying film Kay-EI, since you mentioned it here, I’m going to compare and contrast to the current epoch thanks!!
Eyes forced open ! 😵💫
You can never unsee that scene. Horrific.
Wasn’t Beethoven’s 9th Symphony featured in Clockwork? Great film
It was a must see because it existed.
That is one great idea!!! Both are dystopian and totally out of sane control. Winner!
OMG so true!
This is “God’s Plan”? Paraphrasing the late great George Carlin, this doesn’t seem like it’s the work of an all-knowing, all powerful loving and benevolent being. It’s more like the work of an incompetent office temp with a bad attitude.
I miss George.
Yes, we could use his humor right now and it would e a gem to listen to his thoughts on this shit show.
Colbert ? Meyers ? IDK , I used to be more aware of good comedians.
Who could be in the same league as Carlin, now ?
No one can compare to George Carlin. Master wordsmith. I can never think of him without laughing about his talk covering the meaning of "down the tubes"!
Maybe Lewis Black?
👎
I’ve had to stop banging my head against the wall, over the invincible ignorance, for the same reason Jodi!
Thanks for your closing message. I did stop reading your stack (and everyone else’s) for two days after the election, but that made me realize that your writing was one of the things helping to keep me SANE. Thanks for all you do.

Fredo- what distresses me more than t💩p is that global wave. Yes, same playbook…
Is there anything funnier than appointing a dummy like Tulsi for Intelligence?
Maybe Betty Boop ?
Ugh, that affected accent, who does he think he is ? Madeleine Kahn ? 😉
Yes, we do have serious work to do.

Bill Maher goes so far as to chastise us for being upset. As if we’re letting Douche Bag Donnie ruin our Christmas.
It’s our fault. We are letting Douche Bag Donnie do this to us.
And, how some couple in who-gives-a-shit Maine or Minnesota move to a community sounded by Trumpsters and get snowed in and are amazed that their neighbors helped plow their driveway. Really! “They really are nice people!We apologize for thinking you were morons voting for a sociopath. When you are really just nice, sweet neighbors who voted for a fucking sociopath.”
Oh, for fuck sake.
How in the fuck do people think we Libtards got to be so fucking angry? DUH!!!
Because we keep fixing Republicans shit, and they keep coming back shitting on the same fucking thing we just cleaned up!
And guess what? We’re tired of it. We are fed up with it. So, If I want to sit and eat fucking turkey by myself and drink a bottle of fucking scotch instead of having my asshole family over and pretend I didn’t want to poison the fucking mashed potatoes, let me be.
Let me cry. Scream. Break Gramma’s fucking dishes. And stop telling me to put on my Big Girl panties, or I’ll bunch them up and stick them down your mother fucking throat.
Ahh... I feel so much better now.
Fuck that smug douchebag Maher. He's part of the problem.
I just laughed for the first time all week. Thank you!
Bravo!
I’m curious...have you ever heard a Republican admit one of their politicians screwed the pooch? Ever?
JackAss sends his followers over to the Capital, watches them on TV, and does nothing. And they still vote for him. It’s Nancy Pelosi's fault. It’s always someone else's fault. And we do-gooders, take the high road and do the right thing. I’m done with, “Do the right thing.” It isn’t workin.
These Republicans can piss and moan and cry for four years...that the election was stolen. Well, why the fuck didn’t we steal it again? Sorry, this all just makes me crazy. And, yes the hypocrisy is staggering.
You have just articulated three weeks of my garbled thoughts in a way that made me laugh at myself till I cried. How the fuck could this be my fault? I finally answered, it's not.
And trump is still talking about getting a recount on 2020. His ego has no bounds.
NO MANDATE. NO MANDATE
OMG, leon is going to convert the treasury to his crypto-whatever and then steal it, isn’t he. Not even a question. And donny, who i don’t feel sorry for when he’s finished serving putin’s purposes, will be waiting for leon to hand him some of the virtual coins to hold in his tiny hands if he hasn’t already encountered a 5th story window somewhere.
Randi Rhodes has been saying that the tech bros' goal is to destroy the US $ and turn it all into bitcoin so they can steal all of our money.
She's absolutely correct.
100%
So... is there a Plan to counter this = or are we 'just gonna see how it plays out?'...
No plan yet, that I'm aware of. Do you have any ideas?
" Don't Worry Be Happy " 😳🤬🤮
I know very little about Bitcoin. Is it kinda like a collectable baseball card online? I kinda worried about Bitcoin replacing cash, thus
leaving Americans & businesses with worthless cash. It that a real worry, oris bitcoina scam?
If Randi is saying it, I’d put the money I soon won’t have on it happening. Powell says he’s not leaving the Federal Reserve, so perhaps he can stop this? Knowing what safeguards, if any, are still in place is beyond my non-pay grade.
Haha that’s a good scenario😂We need a Substack where we can write our “end times” stories!! Humour and creativity are the only way to survive this living nightmare😱
I truly believe that he will be martyred for the Evangelicals to worship as a god. Putin will use him to crush Ukraine and then he's done.
None of them "need" him anymore, so it's anyone's guess what happens next.
“Steal” is the operative word. Who will control the Federal Reserve and Treasury on Jan 21? Add a few $trillion to the national debt for Elon and Donnie and Vlad.
I simply cannot fathom thinking myself such an example of American Exceptionalism that I would decide to call my state Senator and request an exception to a law I supported be made just especially for me! Trump’s “very special boy” mentality is contagious.🐀💩

Wasn’t it always the backlash to the Civil Rights movement? Everything else was fluff. That shite sticks permanent.
