Ewwwwwww.

There is so much grossness to pick apart in here in this minute or so of footage. There’s dear ol’ Donnie, hiding behind Ivanka’s skirts, blatantly using her as a shield to deflect criticism (sorry, asshole, even lovely daughters can turn out that way IN SPITE OF you, not because of you). There’s also the infantilization of a 35-year-old WOMAN as a Daddy’s Girl (in which Ivanka seems to participate quite happily, if the childishly flirtatious way she says “Hi, North Dakota” is any indication). It’s like she never grew up past the age of 15. And while it’s seemingly not a bad thing that they’re close, what the hell is she doing in the White House? She has a family and career of her own; it’s not like she HAS to be there. In fact, it’s highly inappropriate that she’s there at all, given the rather strict (if fairly recent) ethical rules against involving unqualified family members too much in the affairs of state. And Ivanka IS involved, as are her brothers, Eric and Donald Jr.

And last, but certainly not least, there’s that bit at the end, where it’s all “give us a kiss, honey”. She was just walking off when he pulled her back in — did you notice that? Ugh.

Remember, this IS the same man who barged in on teenage beauty pageant contestants while they were changing in the dressing room — and BRAGGED about it. He’s the same man who said he grabs women by the pussy and that they let him do it because he’s famous. He’s also the same one who famously said that if Ivanka wasn’t his daughter, he’d be dating her.

Yuck. What the hell IS she doing in the White House, anyway?

And for that matter — what’s HE still doing there, too?

Korean lives don’t matter?

So, one Yank > 1,000 North Koreans? Good to know. And what are South Koreans — the US’s allies — worth?

If this guy wants to nuke North Korea, or even just conventionally bomb it, I say strap him to the warhead and let HIM go first. Hey, he’s worth more than a thousand of the people he wants to kill, right?

Wankers of the Week: Hurricane Donnie hits Houston

hurricane-drumpf-tweets.jpg

Crappy weekend, everyone! And a very crappy one to the unlucky folks in Houston, who are treading water right now, STILL. Hang tight, y’all, you haven’t been forgotten, even if your presidunce HAS decided to turn your misfortune into one big, dumb egoboo session. And here’s who else is doggy-paddling in a sea of doo-doo this week, in no particular order:

1. Joel Fucking Osteen. If you need a good reason why megachurches should be taxed, look no further. This preacher-man is all too happy to milk that ol’ cash cow during fair weather, but during foul, is he practicing what he preaches? NOOOOOOOO! Instead, he’s busy schmoozing for even MORE dinero he doesn’t actually need, and won’t be using to help anyone who DOES need it. PS: Lame excuse is limping awfully hard, dude.

2. Cathy Fucking Miller. And while we’re on the subject of whited sepulchres preaching one thing and practicing another, how about her? She doesn’t “condone” same-sex weddings…which will happen whether or not she’s there to approve. And whether or not she’s willing to make any money furnishing them a cake.

3. Bobby Fucking Ritter. Aren’t tattoos cool? Not only do they make you look badass (sometimes), they also make you look like a plain ol’ ass when people recognize yours in a neo-Nazi march where your face is covered. Busted!

hurricane-drumpf-book.jpg

4. Paul Fucking LePage. Hey Maine, you might want to look into impeaching your hateful-ass governor and barring him from politics for life. Just sayin’.

5. Renee Fucking Baio. No, you know whose ugliness knows no bounds, lady? YOURS. Don’t bother praying, because if there IS a God, I’m pretty sure she’s sick and tired of you and your husband’s conspiracy-theorist filth.

6. Theodore Fucking Beale. Guy who writes crap fiction (including far-right manuals on How to Alpha Male, in which he glorifies rape) calls leftists “liars”, smears them with a proven-false channer campaign claiming that they support domestic violence (read: woman abuse), then demands that someone read his shitty book that no one in their right mind would. And he thinks he’s on a level with Aristotle, too. I would charge him for the new irony meter he owes me, but even the manufacturer is fresh out.

hurricane-drumpf-empathy.jpg

7. Sebastian Fucking Gorka. Oh, what a shame. Wile E. Nazi is out of the White House! He may be gone, but he is far from forgotten. And he’s making sure that everyone can hear him whining about it for miles around, too. PS: Hey, Sooper Genius…did you also get your driver’s licence from a Hungarian diploma mill? Ha, ha.

8. Jillian Fucking Mele. Riddle me this: Why do police need tanks and grenades to handle protests? Answer: They don’t. Unless, of course, you’re looking to generate excuses for a fascist police state, as all of FUX Snooze apparently is.

9. Joshua Fucking Witt. Some people are too dumb to boil toast. Others, too stupid to get a knife out of its packaging without stabbing themselves and then blaming it on Antifa and their own dumb fashy haircuts.

hurricane-drumpf-mofo.jpg

10. Peter Fucking Cvjetanovic. Oh looky, the Angry Snowflake Boy is still mad. But he wants PEACE, you guys! Meaning, he wants you to forget all about the fact that he joined a racist hate group on a racist hate march to protect a racist hate statue. He just wants to get his poli-sci degree without being frowned at! How about FUCK NO!?

11. Tom Fucking Llamas. PSA for journos who don’t get it: People taking food from supermarkets that can’t sell it aren’t “looting”, they are HUNGRY. And they are cleaning up what would only get thrown away afterwards anyway. Didn’t Katrina teach you anything? And BTW: What color were those “looting” people, anyway? Betcha they were black! PS: Sign, sign, sign!

12. Richard Fucking Preston. And speaking of racist blame-assigners: Get a load of who fired off a gun while yelling “nigger-nigger-nigger” at a black man. Yeah. This fucking Kluker. Who thinks the authorities in Charlottesville were responsible for letting violence break out. I guess, in a way, the dumbfuck is right. I mean, who else granted all these Klukers and neo-Nazis and other assorted “alt”-righturds a permit to be there, anyway?

hurriane-drumpf-sandbag.jpg

13. Kellyanne Fucking Conway. While Donnie Tinyhands is busy bragging about the crowds he drew in Houston (without actually meeting with any flood victims!), she’s peddling “alternative facts” to Patwa on his crapaganda show. And they’re so “alternative” that she’s managed to somehow magically turn him into the essence of humility and Higher Callings. Irony meter sales are off the charts, folks.

14. Ann Fucking Coulter. Because there is literally nothing that the Coultergeist, with her reverse Midas touch, can’t turn into a mountain of horseshit, how about blaming the former mayor of Houston, who happened to be a gay woman, for the hurricane? Never mind that the current mayor is a black man who is not, to my knowledge, gay. And of course, she had to throw climate-change denialism into the mix, too. Because like #13, she’s a bleach-brained wank whose bread and butter is “alternative facts”!

15. Eric Fucking Hauser. Just think, kiddies, this racist — oh sorry, “alt-right” — numpty nincompoop used to be an assistant principal of an actual school. And now he’s a copyright-infringer who’s on the hook for stealing a cartoon frog who was stolen countless times already to justify racism, fascism, Islamophobia, and Bog only knows what all else. And he wrote what sounds like the world’s shittiest children’s book around said frog, too. But hey! At least he’s paying for it. And all the proceeds are going to CAIR. Ha, ha!

hurricane-coast-guard.jpg

16. Christopher Fucking Cantwell. Boo-hoo, Crying Nazi doesn’t like his new nickname! Well, suck it up, buttercup. And fuck yo’ feelings!

17. Tomi Fucking Lahren. And this week, in Most Unsurprising News Ever, White Grievance Cheerleader gets new gig at FUX Snooze, Home of the Racist Old Poop Leg Cam! Yaaaaaaay…snzzzzzzzzzz.

18. Warren Fucking Love. Lynching those who “vandalize” statues that should never have been erected (during the Jim Crow era, for obvious reasons) in the first place? Why no, that’s not at all related to the wrongs that statue removal is trying to redress!

hurricane-donnie.jpg

19. Roger Fucking Grigsby. I don’t know what disgusts me more about this now-unmasked white supremacist: The fact that he contributed to a known Kluker leader’s political campaign, or that for nearly 40 years, he used to run a Chinese restaurant whose name might as well have been “Ah So”. No, dude, you’re not being persecuted for being white, you’re being exposed and criticized for being a fucking idiot. And it sure looks good on you that you’ll have less money to throw at the KKK from now on.

20. Chris Fucking Hedges. False equivalence much? Read up on Nazi Germany again, bucko. You’ll see that nowhere in history was Hitler inspired to create the Third Reich while getting bopped upside the head by leftists, nor were “both sides” to blame for what he did to the Jews. That fallacy is doubly disgusting coming from a supposed progressive. But please, keep playing right into Donnie’s tiny hands. He can use all the help he can get right now, with his popularity swirling so close to the bottom of the bowl.

21. Melania Fucking Drumpf. Why?

hurricane-fashion.jpg

That’s why. Also, that “FLOTUS” hat. Tacky Onassis, you sure put the ass in “class”.

22. Sarah Fucking Palin. Too bad, so sad, Screech got laughed out of court. Diddums!

23. Jason Fucking Spencer. Thanks so much for that creepy “warning” to LaDawn Jones, dude. I’m sure she’ll totally take it to heart! #HaHaNOPE

24. Marc Fucking Theissen. And again with the false “Antifa is as bad as fascists, if not worse” narrative. People punching Nazis are as bad as Augusto Pinochet, who had leftists thrown from helicopters over the Pacific ocean? Allllll righty then, stupid. And surprise, surprise: he used to work for Dubya, and now works for the AEI, too. One of the stinkiest right-wing stink tanks, in other words. No wonder he loves him some Pinochetists. Free markets and enslaved people, y’all!

hurricane-melania.jpg

25. Mark Fucking Taylor. I’m sorry, but as soon as I hear someone prattling about “Illuminati” doing anything — even walking a dog — I automatically know that nothing they say is to be taken seriously, but only pointed and laughed at.

26. Kris Fucking Kobach. Oh, look who’s now writing for Bitefart! As if running Kansas into the ground wasn’t lucrative enough. Yeah, bubba, that’s not gonna hurt your reputation one bit…but only because it’s already in the shitter!

27. Rolando Fucking Pablos. Send prayer instead of aid? Yeah, that’ll help. Dude, it’s not God air-dropping parcels of relief supplies out of the sky. Even if your cargo-cult mentality would hold that it is.

toolman-osteen.jpg

28. David Fucking Clarke. While Milwaukee is breathing a huge sigh of relief at losing the Cowboy Fascist Idiot, Washington is bracing itself for a veritable hurricane of stoopid…and it’s not like they don’t have the perfect storm of idiocy already going on over there.

29. Patsy Fucking Capshaw Fucking Skipper. Why the double Fucking? Because that’s how disgraceful it is to be both a sore loser AND a stinking racist. And claiming that a White House only “honors God” when the resident is a white right-winger, too.

30. Paul Fucking Joseph Fucking Watson. Why the double Fucking? Because that’s how jaw-droppingly idiotic he is for saying that George Orwell, who joined the POUM militia in Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War, would have “hated” Antifa. Dude, the POUM were Antifa. Books: Do you know what they are, and can you even read them? Or are you just doubleplusdumb?

not-you-osteen.jpg

And finally, to all the idiots who think Obama golfed during Hurricane Katrina while his wife went shopping. No, dumbasses, you’re thinking of Dubya and his Auntie Condi (who bought Ferragamo shoes). Obama wasn’t president then, but he did meet with evacuees from Katrina as a senator from Illinois. And when there WAS a hurricane on his White House watch, he was actually presidenting. Unlike you-know-who and his trophy, who barely got their shoes wet.

Good night, and get fucked!

The Blaze is burning out

Gee. All of a sudden I don’t feel so bad about running this here little ol’ never-made-a-dime blog. Because remember all those professional ‘wingers and their whiz-bang “news” outlets (note the quotes, there for a reason)? Well, one of them — a total trash fire from the get-go — has finally burned through all its financing, and is now going up in thick, black smoke. And surprise, surprise…it’s Biff’s!

Or maybe NOT so surprising after all. When Biff left FUX Snooze, he had nowhere to go but deeper into the fascist fringe than even they dared to tread. Oh sure, he pretends he’s not a Nazi, the very opposite of a Nazi, and anyway (so he says, and so say all the cons who are way too close to that particular tire-fire to avoid getting singed), “The Nazis were SOCIALISTS, they said so right in the name!” And yes, he Godwin’d both Obama and the young Norwegians murdered by an ACTUAL Nazi. (This even though Biff owns Nazi paraphernalia, which he has made a repeated point of wearing and displaying…in the name of freedumb. Also, he had nothing but kind words for home-grown OG Nazis.)

But if it seemed like Biff was onto something at first, with a crapaganda outlet catering to those who considered FUX a liberal fake-news channel, it never really got much traction. For one thing, he had to fake-cry too many times (and way too obviously). For another, his main competition for the FUX Snooze Leg Cam, the White Grievance Cheerleader herself, dared to let slip that she was kinda-sorta pro-choice. That was a no-no, and Tomi had to go-go. (She’s now perched awkwardly in front of that very same Leg Cam, ha ha.)

And last, but certainly not least, there was Breitbart…which, far from dying along with its hot-headed founder (although it should have), got a major cash infusion from some “libertarian” Nazi-symps who weren’t fucking around. And while Bitefart’s down now (thanks to a concerted campaign of advertiser boycotting), it’s not out yet. Steve Bannon, who served as Donnie’s adviser briefly and yet still far too long, took it on a turn so hard to starboard that Biff just couldn’t keep up. And now he’s back on board. That pretty much eats up the entire neo-Nazi — oh sorry, “alt-right” — following that Biff was going for.

So, between the battered but still sputtering Bitefart and the loss of his main slice of red meat, Biff’s dumpster fire is now rapidly dwindling to soot and cinders. One almost feels sorry for him, but remember, kiddies…this is a guy who likes to fake-cry. Don’t put it past him to bawl for more bucks. He probably won’t invest them into his channel, though. He’ll just go crying all the way to the bank, like all the pay-yourself-first CEOs do.

And as Cenk says…it’s all proof that no, conservatives don’t know how to run a business any better than progressives. Because when’s the last time you saw a hard-hitting progressive news outlet go kaputt like The Blaze?

Or, for that matter, a little ol’ pay-it-no-mind-and-no-bucks socialist blog like this one?

Cops Behaving Badly: Georgia’s “finest” at work — affirming racism!

OMG, this is unbelievable…except that it totally isn’t. After all, this is Cobb County, Georgia…where racism is just good ol’ Southern heritage and tradition at work. And even the cops affirm it, however inadvertently this one let the (open) secret slip:

Cobb County police Chief Mike Register told Channel 2 Investigative Reporter Mark Winne that after Channel 2 Action News submitted an open-records request, he and his command staff looked at the video.

“Remember, we only kill black people. We only kill black people, right?” the Cobb County police officer can be heard saying on the video.

On Friday, they opened an internal investigation.

Register said the officer heard on video is Lt. Greg Abbott. Register said Abbott has been assigned to administrative duties pending the outcome of the investigation.

According to Register, the recording is part of a DUI stop. The woman said she was hesitant to put her hands down to pick up a cellphone because she didn’t want to get shot.

“No matter what context it was said, it shouldn’t have been said,” Register said.

Suri Chadha Jimenez, who is representing the driver in the case, said he believes the officer was being sarcastic after the woman “gave him some lip.”

“It makes you cringe when you hear it. It’s unacceptable,” Jimenez said.

Cringe? Yeah, I would hope to shout that it does.

But this line is more than merely cringeworthy. Even uttered sarcastically, it’s still the unacceptable truth that police in Georgia (and, let’s be real, practically everywhere that blacks are a minority, including beautiful liberal multicultural Toronto) really are that fucking racist. They’ll stop black people more. They’ll demand to see black people’s IDs more. They’ll frisk black people more. They’ll break down black people’s doors more. They’ll plant drugs on them more. And when it comes to the trigger-happy confrontational ones, they’ll shoot (and kill) black people more.

‘Course, Georgia being Georgia, with its long history of slavery, the Confederacy, Jim Crow, the KKK, resistance to non-white voter registration and school integration and yadda yadda yadda oh just read some fucking history already, it stands to reason that this cop wasn’t really kidding when he said that they only shoot (and kill) black people. Police in the US south are the direct descendants of slave patrols, and busting uppity niggruhs is what they were originally and traditionally expected to do. The South may have lost the Civil War, and been dragged through Emancipation kicking and screaming (or at least its wealthy planters were), but the one thing that hasn’t changed in all this time is the color of the people who felt the lash of the law the hardest.

White thugs? They get a free pass for a lot of things, especially in the US south. And if the cops MUST bust them, they’ll handcuff and frog-march them as gently as they can. They won’t rough ’em up unless maybe they’re on drugs or acting agitated. Dylann Roof was only an anomaly in that the police were actually willing to arrest him. They didn’t, however, maltreat him as they routinely do black arrestees; they actually stopped for fast food along the way because the little snowflake was hungry.

And when the white thug also happens to be a cop? Well, you get scenes like the above, in which a cop tries to “reassure” a white woman he’s stopped by pointing out that she’s in no physical danger. By telling her that he’d only shoot her if she were black.

I don’t know about you, but I’m white. And I wouldn’t feel the least bit reassured to know that the color of my skin, or rather lack thereof, is all that’s standing between me and a police bullet.

PS: Oh looky, the fine 28-year veteran has just pulled a “you can’t fire me, I quit!” Typical.

Hurricane Harvey: Local views from Houston, Texas

Rich Lux, a Houston YouTuber usually known for gossip, banter, makeup, and “DRAMA, HAWNEY!”, gets serious and shows us the local, human side of the worst weather disaster to hit the US since Hurricane Katrina, 12 years ago.

Meanwhile, another local YouTuber, Bunny Meyer, a.k.a. grav3yardgirl, usually better known for her hilarious hauls and goofball product reviews, talks about what it’s like for her and her partner “Dogman” and their respective families, who live in the swampy suburbs of the city:

My heart goes out to these folks and everyone affected by Harvey. Stay as dry and warm and safe as you can, folks. And I hope you have enough of everything to tide you over until the floodwaters recede. Failing that, I hope help reaches you in time. Love to you all.

Reichsbürger: Germany’s “sovereign citizens” have blood on their hands

A man known only as Wolfgang P. makes his first court appearance. His face is blurred out in accordance with German privacy law. But what he is accused of sounds very un-German. In fact, it sounds like he’s been taking notes from a certain uncouth band of Yanks:

“I am the free man Wolfgang.”

The accused, Wolfgang P., wouldn’t say more than that during the preliminary hearing before his murder trial in the Nürnberg state court. He was present, and everyone knew who he was. And in fact, the 49-year-old has been well known since October 19, 2016 — as a so-called “Reichsbürger” who shot a police officer during a routine call in Georgensgmünd. During the same deployment, two other officers of the special commando unit were injured, one of them shot through the underarm, another with a splinter to the face. The charges are murder, three times attempted murder, as well as grievous bodily harm.

The officers were there to confiscate the sport-hunter’s guns, since authorities no longer regarded him as reliable. The previous spring, the local prosecutor’s office had become aware of Wolfgang P. after a tax-enforcement effort failed. That summer, the owner of some 30 guns repeatedly refused police and weapons controllers access to his property. Then came the so-called routine call.

Psychiatric expert Michael Wörthmüller reveals how P. experienced this event. Shortly after the incident, he talked with P. about it. At about 6 o’clock in the morning, the officers managed to enter the property. P. said he heard a noise “like grenades” and the loud screams of a woman in the house — it was “like a hell-spectacle from the war”. The 49-year-old was awakened in his home on the first floor, and asked himself if World War III had broken out. “It was just seconds between asshole and hero,” Wörthmüller quotes the accused as saying. What does that mean, a female judge wants to know. Exactly what, even the psychiatrist can’t say, but only this much: In hindsight, P. realized that he had made the wrong decision.

Wörthmüller, who runs the Clinic for Forensic Psychiatry in Erlangen, testified over P.’s “not uncomplicated life story” and repeats what P. told him. The accused had nothing against the police, since they were concerned with the upholding of public order after all. He never wanted to harm any police officer. He owned all his weapons only for self-defence. Above all, the attacks in Ansbach and Würzburg last year had made him insecure and he was afraid of attacks via institutions. However, P. does not see himself as a “Reichsbürger”, as his defence attorney, Susanne Koller, emphasized during the trial.

Since the Georgensgmünd incident, the so-called Reichsbürger have been in the authorities’ spotlight. Authorities estimate that there are roughly 12,600 of them throughout Germany; several hundred are right-wing extremists. In Bavaria, there are at least 3,000 so-called Reichsbürger. These individuals do not recognize the present-day republic as their state. Instead, they claim that the German Reich still stands. They consider the constitution, authorities and courts illegitimate, and accept no official notices.

In the conduct of Wolfgang P., there are parallels that match this description. Along with the 30 weapons, the accused also had about 1,000 litres of diesel fuel stored in his home, in order to be prepared for emergencies. A bailiff coming to collect back taxes was rudely rebuffed. But P. considers himself to be a peaceful man. Until October 19, 2016. As he saw the beams of flashlights through the milky glass of his door, he flew into a panic, grabbed his gun, and fired.

The state prosecutor’s office sees the matter quite differently. At least two months beforehand, Wolfgang P. had already planned to kill or injure as many police officers as possible in the line of duty. For that reason he barricaded himself in his home behind a corner of the wall, with a line of sight on the door. He was wearing a bulletproof vest, with a loaded firearm at the ready. He waited until he could hit numerous officers — and then fired through the half-glass door eleven times.

As the prosecutor is describing this version of the story, a woman sitting in the courtroom cries. She is the mother of the 32-year-old slain officer. The family’s world fell apart that day, says the survivors’ lawyer, Monika Goller. It is “hard to bear” how the accused, who refers to himself only in the third person as “Wolfgang”, comports himself in court.

As the case goes to court, it could get very interesting. The question is whether the court will go with the prosecution and find P. guilty of murder, or with the defence, which characterizes the shots at the special commando unit as self-defence in an emergency. Twelve days have been set aside for the trial in mid-October. Wolfgang P’s defence team already doubt whether they will be enough.

Translation mine.

That “free man Wolfgang” bit sounds awfully familiar, doesn’t it? A certain group of far-right whackjobs, the “free men on the land”, use similar rhetoric. And they are kissing cousins with another group of far-right whackjobs from whom we’ve heard all too much in recent years, starting with Ruby Ridge and Oklahoma City.

Other similarities: Gun hoarding, which is a much more serious criminal matter in Germany than it is in the US of Amnesia. In the US, it seems no one cares how many guns you own or whether you got them legally, or why you have them. In Germany, it’s quite a different story; guns are more strictly controlled, and the authorities keep tabs on who buys what and why. Since when does a mere sport-hunter need 30 or more? That’s considered a small arsenal.

And when you combine that with the tax-avoidance pattern, red flags go up. Hence the deployment of a police commando unit, rather than a polite knock on the door and a mild-mannered conversation. That conversation had already been attempted, and “rudely rebuffed”. There was no reason to assume Wolfgang P. would in fact be the peaceful man he claimed to be, and his conduct on the morning of the shooting lays that claim definitively to rest.

Whether Wolfgang P. is a Reichsbürger — a term loaded with Hitlerian allusions — or not, he is definitely parallel to the “sovereign citizens” of the US, who recognize no duly constituted authorities as lawful, and who have committed all manner of assaults in so-called “self-defence”. Up to and including murder.

The incredible egotism of Donnie Drumpf

How bad is it when you actually have to applaud Donnie for FINALLY spelling “unprecedented” right? Well…so bad that he’s still tripping over his dick even as Houston lies underwater. He’d rather bully Canada and Mexico, and pardon Joe Arpaio (who ought to be rotting in jail even now, not getting any more second chances to fuck up and offend).

Fortunately, Donnie is NOT the whole of the US government. But the government is still hurting, because he’s signing off on bad executive orders, like this one.

Fucking hell.
