I write to you tonight from war-torn Chicago, where busloads of Antifas have run amok, smashing our deep-dish pizzas into that flat, flaccid shit they sell in New York. Luckily, heroic agents of ICE have been firing pepperoni balls at the traumatized populace, ensuring
Sorry, whats that? Pepper balls? Well, no wonder that pastor was so upset. Say, this isnt emergency pizza triage at all! This is tyranny!

Yeah, were having a grand old time here in the Windy City, as the nations Kooky Kakistocrat Kabal beta-tests martial law. We did get that fun little restraining order to prevent DHS from using excessive force against reporters and protesters, because one of the funnest things about being American right now is that you have to go to court to stop your government from violently suppressing your constitutional rights.
Only thing funner is watching regime media manufacture consent for the crackdown with the laziest lies this side of drug prices are going down 1500%. Kash Patel knows damn well there arent 110,000 gang members in Chicago, but hell keep zip-tying naked children until he finds every single one.
Ah, well. At least things arent as bad as they are in Portland, thank God; we still have stores and windows. Hopefully the Inflatable Frog Brigade can keep the 82nd Airborne tied down long enough to give us a chance to throw up some barricades before Off-Brand Orbán invokes the Insurrection Act.
Yeah, ahead of the next round of No Kings protests (hope tsee yall there!), Republicansre giddily branding all participants as terrorists, so I guess were done with the whole toning down the incendiary rhetoric thing.
(Oh look, as I type this, ICE thugs are violently detaining members of the local media on the streets I walk every single week. Funner and funner!)
If theres a more sinister sound than Stephen Miller hissing about plenary authority, well, Im sure well hear it before Thanksgiving, because they are GOING FOR IT, yall. Once they run out of nannies to terrorize, ICE is to be redeployed against liberal activist groups, while the weaponized DoJ targets George Soros, and Elon cheerleads for a Bukele-style purge of the judiciary from his ketamine cave.
Letitia James became the latest Enemy o the State️ to get indicted on spurious charges by the Presidents insurance attorney, though it looks like shell soon have John Bolton to keep her company in the gulag.
yeah, I just cannot figure out how that Nobel Peace Prize slipped through his stunted, ineffectual fingers. You know hes second-guessing his entire reign, like, Did I not blow up enough fishing boats or un-eradicate enough diseases?
Perhaps some sort of clue can be uncovered in the weeks news headlines?
Heres one:
Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar
Or howzabout:
Trumps USAID pause stranded lifesaving drugs. Children died waiting.
OH THATS RIGHT, hes responsible for more suffering and death than anyone alive except maybe Putin! I forgot!
B-b-but nobodys EVER ended SEVEN wars in SEVEN months!
Thats correct. Donald Trump certainly hasnt. He sure has starved a bunch of kids to death, though.
Of course the Children of the Candy Corn are taking the snub hard, because the First MAGA Commandment says the more Fashy Daddy repeats a lie, the truer it becomes. Those uppity Norwegians pierced their precious bubble, and reality came pouring in, which is the one thing they simply cant abide.
Speaking of big, fat, stupid lies, several participants in the criminal conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election expressed disapproval of law enforcements investigations into their treasonous conduct before returning to their day jobs, writing laws the rest of us have to follow here in the healthiest of all possible democracies.
I see the Dotard swung by Walter Reed for his second annual physical in six months; just your standard cankle-draining-and-a-cognitive-test check-up. Hey doc, you got anything for facial droop? I dunno, Botox, or maybe a thumbtack?
Some good news: gas will finally hit $1.99 per gallon next year, but only if you pay with the illegally minted $1 coins the U.S. Treasury plans to issue to commemorate the nations 250th birthday with the graven image of a rapist.
Donnie Two-Dolls pledged to take a look at pardoning notorious sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, because those Epstein files definitely dont contain a series of complaints, of escalating intensity, that the underage massage therapists do not sufficiently resemble a certain someones daughter.
We may never know, since Mike Johnson clearly hopes to keep the government in perpetual shutdown, lest he be forced to seat Adelita Grijalva, or as he likes to call her, Vote 218 on Massies F@*%ing Discharge Petition.
Oh yeah, the government remains shut down, by the way. You could be forgiven for not noticing; its usually a much bigger deal, but its tough to crack the front page with the executive branch constantly expanding its multi-front war on the citizenry.
In fact, Speaker Moses keeps extending his caucus paid vacation, apparently because he imagines he can handle messaging all by his lonesome, which is adorable. If they ever do a biopic of Mike Johnson, itll be a cartoon about a rubber stamp that thinks its Speaker of the House.
Ah, but Hell hath no fury like a wingnut scorned, and so Marjorie Taylor Greene of all people has been making the media rounds, telling anyone wholl listen that yes, Republicans are, in fact, responsible for skyrocketing health insurance premiums. Good thing you gave her those committee assignments back, huh?
If the White House Antifa Roundtable was designed to raise awareness of the raging mental health issues plaguing the American Right, it was a rousing success; if it had any other purpose whatsoever
yikes.
Cant say Im a fan of the President of the United States bragging about how he took the freedom of speech away from flag-burners, however erroneously.
We havent seen such a gathering in a government building since the Capitol Riot. Posobiec. Ngo. Sortor. Choe. Higby. Kristi Noem claimed tove arrested the girlfriend of one of Antifas founders, so somebody should probably check Mamie Eisenhowers grave.
Only marginally less terrifying/embarrassing (embarrifying?) was the next days Cabinet meeting, which featured all the usual bootlicking plus RFK Jr.s inadvertent admission that he mustve been dealing heroin during some of the more fundamental reproductive health classes of his youth.
Pam Bondi needed a cheat sheet to preen her way through a Senate hearing, hoping to come off like a big, tuff autocrat who would never face accountability or comeuppance, but ultimately going viral only for her refusal to answer questions about the existence of photos from Jeff Epsteins private stash of her dirtbag boss with half-naked young women," because like all these fascist clods, shes nowhere near smart enough to pull this shit off.
Secretary Funsoxx has opened nearly 300 investigations into warfighters n nonuniformed personnel (or warhelpers) for the high crime of Insufficient Deification of Reichstag Charlie, surely the efficientest use of taxpayer dollars since that one rapist demanded a military parade for his birthday.
TPUSA announced it will counter-program the Super Bowl halftime show, providing a safe space for the sort of heritage Americans who call the cops whenever they see a brown person driving through their neighborhood.
Qatar gets to build an Air Force base on American soil, apparently, and everyone who didnt think to give the most bribable man in human history a used jet is kicking themselves.
Herschel Walker is an ambassador now. Yeah, to the Bahamas. Hope they dont have too many, yknow
trees there.
Lets check in on the laboratories of kakistocracy (or red states, if you prefer) real quick:
The impressionable children of DeSantistan need no longer fear the hypnotic indoctrination powers of gay crosswalks, thanks to Governor Ron-Rons anti-woke bulldozers.
61-year-old former police officer Larry Bushart sits in jail for posting a meme on Facebook, not in North Korea or Iran, but in the perhaps-somewhat-less-than-great state of Tennessee.
Oh, and the GOP nominee for Virginia governor is hatefully, possibly murderously insane. Not a red state, admittedly, but the rule of threes must be observed.
I regret to inform you Ive finally gotten to the bottom of Jesse Watters warped sense of masculinity: hes hot for Stephen Miller. See, hes afraid to eat soup in public because hes worried everyone will be able to tell that what he really wants to slurp is spray-on hair off the sexual matadors cue ball noggin. Listening to Jesse go on and on (and ON and ON), its pretty clear
it aint AOC who wants to tap that evil ass.
Now that Ive destroyed your ability to keep food down for the foreseeable future, feel free to invest any resultant savings in my tip jar/beer fund (now accepting Cash App, PayPal, and Venmo!), OR BETTER YET
BUY MY NEW COMIC BOOK! Were looking at launching the Kickstarter in a couple of weeks, on October 21st, at which point well have a one-month window to drum up as much support as possible.

(12,036 posts)South American actual fishermen can't afford 3 to 4 $35,000 outboards on the back of their boat. They also have lots of fishing gear on board and not lots of water tight packages. Of course killing smugglers is still wrong.
