Trump’s New Lawyer, Doug Collins, Sends a Remarkable Letter to Jeff Rosen
Trump’s new lawyer? Hope Collins likes doing a lot of pro bono work.
DeSantis THREATENS America
I’ll be honest – Ron DeathSantis scares me. Of course he’s smarter than Donnie (but most people are). He has a better understanding of how government works. And he LUSTS to be president.
Made
No idea why Charlie Kirk & Laura Ingraham had the knifes out for Simone – she’s an American hero.
But I guess Charlie Kirk DOES have a balloon-head:

DOJ Warns Mysterious “Sudden Windfall” of Money to Proud Boys
Well, this is bothersome.
Just Do It
I saw some right-winger on the news ranting about COVID saying (paraphrased): “First the CDC tells us to wear masks. And then they said if you get vaccinated you don’t have to wear a mask. So which is it: Masks or Vaccines?”
That’s like saying: Are your next car you can have brakes or airbags – so which is it?
Just like having brakes AND airbags, I’ll go with masks AND vaccine.

SQUEEEE!!!
(And those 861 down voters are in serious need of some psych intervention!)
Masks being back in style …
Upside of wearing one – good chance to LIVE.
Downside of refusing – good chance to DIE.
This is a wonderful example of a “NO-BRAINER”.
GK: I give Collins no points, at all; zip, zero, nada, nunca.
MT: My special governor?! “Special” alright, especially venal, uncaring, in office only because former Gov. Scott did the Florididia thing and sliced 7% of the eligible voters out of the list. I expect him to be thoroughly trounced in the ’22 election, and hop that that will be the beginning of the end for his political life…though one never knows, do one?
LP: Excellent! Why did these asses go after her? My guess is that it is because she is black, and a she black! She did not entertain them as they expected she would. She had the nerve to think of her OWN well being! Imagine!
TH: END CITIZENS UNITED! Charles Koch? The Heritage Foundation? ALEC? Alex Jones? BBB Ltd.? Oh, that’s Bunch of Bad Bastards, Limited.
Politicsrus: “Don’t be one!” More excellent!
Dodo: Why was there no “tissue” alert?
Beau: “…bare minimum to protect themselves,” and others. I’m in Florididia. I’m masking, was the only visitor to the gym, 2 days ago, wearing a mask while I was there. Today there was one other person wearing one. I was in Walmart, yesterday, and fewer people had masks aunthood previously, AND, as per Beau, there were 2 folks attached to oxygen supplies, with no masks.
Some people at the gym look at me a bit askance, and I;m not sure if that’s because I am wearing a mask…or because my mask is tie-dyed. Goddamn Hippie!
I apologize for omitting a tissue/hanky alert. Maybe you should, as a matter of insurance, consider there should be one on any animal video. (I keep a box of tissues and a couple of cloth hankies at my desk always.
JM: Trump is now scraping the barrels of the barrel-scrapers he had working for him before with this new “lawyer”. And he’s also past his usual motto “If everything fails, go for intimidation” and has Collins go straight into intimidation. If it wasn’t so diverting and time-consuming, it would be laughable.
MT: If she’s right, I hope she gets some budget soon to s**t on their brand.
LP: Anything not right-wing in the rest of the world took offence at the racist taking down of Simone. Because if she had continued and won the expected gold medals, they would have embraced her for 10 seconds as their girl to then make those medals “theirs”.
PR: Another case of “follow the money” in which a good investigative reporter could prevent further windfalls in terrorist’s accounts. Some days, the level of corruption in America gets me seriously down. It’s like the US, having lost its 1st place in “Best In Most Things” is now going for gold in the “Most Corrupt” race.
PRU: “Get a prick. Don’t be one.” Excellent, though I didn’t know the word would be as ingrained in the States as it would be in the UK.
Dodo: Thanks for my happy-ending story, Joanne. I certainly was in need of one after all the Republican %^&* above. I had a cat adopt me once, a beautiful ginger British shorthair, who could manage to give his eyes that same mournful sad look Bubby had. But he knew exactly how to manipulate humans with it and get himself the adoration he yearned for.
Beau: Excellent motivation. Just do it.
That streak of corruption has always been there, as it probably has everywhere. But the change is that we used to be ashamed of it. That made a huge difference.
