Almost as good as The Onion! At 6' 7" can hit the three pointer? A good wing player? Defense?

Goober Comer's star witness! WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal appeals court on Wednesday rejected a bid to release from jail a former FBI informant who is charged with fabricating a multimillion-dollar bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden’s family. Alexander Smirnov ‘s lawyers had urged the California-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn a lower court judge’s order that the man remain behind bars while he awaits trial. But a three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit said the lower court was right to conclude Smirnov is a flight risk and there are no conditions of release that would reasonably assure he shows up in court. apnews.com/article/hunter-biden-alexander-smirnov-informant-detention-2a16e676657f32778b3efb31f259f109

Ha ha ha! Moron Noem's ever frantic attempts to justify killing poor little Cricket. "Where's Cricket?" cried her daughter. Suddenly Cricket has become Cujo! South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R), who has been under the microscope this week for an anecdote about killing her dog, defended her actions Wednesday, saying she shot the “dangerous” pup in order to protect her children. thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/4638343-kristi-noem-dog-shooting-defense-protect-children/

Woof! Woof! Nothing better than ridicule for the likes of MAGA GOPer Noem. Bipartisan lawmakers on Tuesday announced the start of a dog lovers caucus on Capitol Hill in the wake of a story about South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R-S.D.) shooting and killing a family dog. “In light of recent events, we’re launching the Congressional Dog Lovers Caucus today!” Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) said in a post on the social platform X. “This group dedicated to man’s best friend aims to foster bipartisan cooperation and will help put paws over politics.” thehill.com/homenews/house/4638846-lawmakers-announce-dog-lovers-caucus-in-wake-of-noem-news/

He knows that his sycophantic cultists are as dumb or dumber than he is. Penn must be thrilled he is an alum. To be fair, there are some very right leaning folks on this message board who also don’t seem to grasp the basics of inflation. Donald Trump, the presumed Republican presidential nominee, wants to kneecap the Federal Reserve. This should be a five-alarm fire for anyone who claims to care about inflation. The former president and his advisers keep finding new ways to outdo themselves on bad economic ideas. Should Trump be granted a second term, he plans to slash the labor supply by ratcheting down immigration (including legal, work-authorized immigration). He wants to devalue the dollar. He’d levy worldwide tariffs of 10 percent or higher, plus perhaps a 100 percent tariff on some Chinese goods, apparently failing to notice that the costs of his previous tariffs fell almost entirely on American consumers. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/05/02/trump-federal-reserve-independence-inflation/

Just go away. But to the extent it subjects her to more ridicule, keep on talking! Kristi Noem just won’t stop talking about killing her dog First, South Dakota Gov. Kristi L. Noem wrote about killing her 14-month-old dog, Cricket, in her soon-to-be-released book, “No Going Back.” Then, over the course of three separate days, the Republican posted on social media about killing her dog — a series of missives that ranged from book promotion to defensive explanation to, finally, blame-the-media spin. “As the saying goes, if you find yourself in a hole, stop murdering your puppy — and stop digging,” said Tommy Vietor, co-host of “Pod Save America” and former Obama administration official..” .” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/03/kristi-noem-just-wont-stop-talking-about-killing-her-dog/

MAGA GOP must exile anyone who speaks the truth. Such a cult. Top RNC lawyer resigns after rift grows with Trump The top lawyer at the Republican Party is resigning after he cited conflicts with his other work and with Donald Trump, who grew angry about his criticism of the former president’s false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, people familiar with the situation said Saturday night. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/04/trump-rnc-spies-election-fraud/

Why are "Republicans" such liars, hypocrites and autocrats?
Here is a difficult truth: A part of the American political spectrum is not merely a passive recipient of the combined authoritarian narratives that come from Russia, China, and their ilk, but an active participant in creating and spreading them. Like the leaders of those countries, the American MAGA right also wants Americans to believe that their democracy is degenerate, their elections illegitimate, their civilization dying. The MAGA movement’s leaders also have an interest in pumping nihilism and cynicism into the brains of their fellow citizens, and in convincing them that nothing they see is true. Their goals are so similar that it is hard to distinguish between the online American alt-right and its foreign amplifiers, who have multiplied since the days when this was solely a Russian project. Tucker Carlson has even promoted the fear of a color revolution in America, lifting the phrase directly from Russian propaganda. The Chinese have joined in too: Earlier this year, a group of Chinese accounts that had previously been posting pro-Chinese material in Mandarin began posting in English, using MAGA symbols and attacking President Joe Biden. They showed fake images of Biden in prison garb, made fun of his age, and called him a satanist pedophile. One Chinese-linked account reposted an RT video repeating the lie that Biden had sent a neo-Nazi criminal to fight in Ukraine. Alex Jones’s reposting of the lie on social media reached some 400,000 people.

Noem burnishing her credentials to be Vice Grifter demonstrating her capacity to shamelessly lie, then double down when asked about the lies. Perfect for the MAGA GOP. Kristi Noem’s increasingly bizarre Kim Jong Un story To recap: Not only has Noem faced bipartisan backlash for her story about her young dog Cricket, but other anecdotes in the book have also been called into question in recent days. There’s the meeting with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un that seems unlikely to have happened. And there is the meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron she says she canceled, and the threatening conversation with former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley she says she recalled. (Representatives for Macron and Haley have rejected her accounts.) www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/06/kristi-noems-increasingly-bizarre-kim-jong-un-story/

And as soon as it was brought to my attention, I made sure that that was adjusted.” As soon as it was brought to her attention? She’s the narrator of the audiobook version! Morning Jolt

Diogenes finds an honest Republican? Maybe Cheney and Duncan can lead the MAGA GOP back to sanity??? 01:37 - Source: CNN CNN — Former Georgia Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan on Monday said he will vote for President Joe Biden in November, arguing former President Donald Trump “has disqualified himself through his conduct and his character.” “Unlike Trump, I’ve belonged to the GOP my entire life. This November, I am voting for a decent person I disagree with on policy over a criminal defendant without a moral compass,” Duncan, a CNN contributor, wrote in an opinion piece published in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. www.cnn.com/2024/05/06/politics/georgia-geoff-duncan-biden-2024-endorsement/index.html

It's insane to me that this is such a rare admission.

It's insane to me that this is such a rare admission. The fact is that most "Republicans" exhibit their craveness and moral cowardice by slurping the rapist, fraudster, and defamer Grifter. The very same "Republicans" who were shocked and outraged at Clinton's indiscretion with an intern. Hypocrites. You can barely get any "Republicans" to repudiate the scumbag behind the anonymity of this chat board.
