What if a seditious wannabe dictator with a patchy yam scalp and a head the size of an Igloo cooler threw a party and nobody came? We may find out yet. x (Scaramucci told them he's not going.)— Kaitlan Collins (@kaitlancollins) January 18, 2021 < p class=”is-empty-p”> For the nontweeterers:...

For all the naysayers, and denier(s) who think that Black Lives Matter is an abominable allegory, I point you to the states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia. I have a good friend who lives in Detroit, which is in Wayne County. The board of canvassers which certifies the election results...
I’m going to close out the day with some more good polling out of Arizona courtesy of The Justice Collaborative Institute: x ARIZONABiden 49% (+6)Trump 43%.#AZsen:Kelly (D) 50% (+10)McSally (R-inc) 40%@Justice_Collab, RV, 10/22-25https://t.co/VRNx15UZgT— Political Polls (@Politics_Polls) October 28, 2020 Arizona helped deliver the election to Donald Trump in 2016. However,...
From Vox: Sen. Joni Ernst had to walk a fine line with her Republican National Convention speech on Wednesday. While she’s likely relying on President Donald Trump’s support to turn out the Republican base in her bid for reelection in November, she also runs the risk of appearing too close to him...
So this is happening tonight: Speakers for the Republican National Convention have been announced, and two Iowans are on the schedule. Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds will speak on Tuesday, according to an announcement from the Donald J. Trump campaign. Joni Ernst, the junior senator from Iowa, will speak on Wednesday....
Let me say first and foremost, I did not watch this garden salad, vegetable talking tripe yesterday but picked this up on twitter. Cadet Bone Spurs discusses how we won Vietnam swiftly and it was won during Desert Storm. I am going to leave this Tribe Tweet right here...
After yesterday’s screed on the leftist boogeymen, tonight should lean toward jingoism with the Trumpian cultural economy of bread and circuses. IMPOTUS* claims that he will speak at 7pm ET. x President Trump promises a âÂÂspecial eveningâ in Washington including a speech, a military flyover and an enormous fireworks display....
Mark Esper (SecDef for those versed in milspeak or govspeak) is in trouble with Bunker Boy (no other identification needed). Pentagon chief breaks from Trump over use of active-duty military forces to quell unrest Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper said Wednesday that he does not support the use of active-duty...
All that remains from Trump is virtue signaling: ignore deaths, go back to work, you’ll be a warrior, and we’ll give you a flyover. I made this case at some length the other day. The imperative of creating the illusion of success is undermining the possibility of actual success. It...
Hey, Donald Trump is going to be sending the Blue Angels out to do flyovers in honor of doctors and nurses! Mere weeks after sending the Angel of Death! Wow, he really does respond quickly. The Washington Post: The Pentagon is planning a multicity tour of the U.S. military’s top flight...
At the Democratic Presidential debate Wednesday night, former NY City Mayor Michael Bloomberg reacted as if Sen. Elizabeth Warren brought a nice chianti and fava beans to the event; she ate him alive. Ms. Warren chewed through Mr. Bloomberg’s political and moral résumé like Hannibal Lecter. There were moments made...
GOP political figures and organizations tend to be the ones caught using stock photographs because their grifting doesn’t respect its marks. It happened again yesterday with the manufactured spectacle at the Daytona 500. Was Brad Parscale anything but lazy in reposting a 2004 shot of AF1 from a different angle of...
Trump's flyover man appears to be imaginary supporter Sir Richard “Dick” Ketay. In the spirit of David Dennison and John Barron-Miller, Richard Ketay may be a figment of his embattled imagination. Aside from the fake Twitter accounts (2) created so far there may be no such person. Much easier to...
David Brooks latest experiment in detoxified masculinity is called: Why Trump Voters Stick With Him: An imagined conversation with Flyover Man. Unfortunately, like most of his columns, the vague generalizations of non-coastal populations resembles a sophomoric version of the NY Times’s attempts to sample Trump voters’ opinions. This time the caricature of...
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D. OH) in support or Theresa Greenfield’s (D. IA) U.S. Senate campaign: While some folks on the coasts might call both Ohio and Iowa “flyover” states, we know better and we deserve strong senators fighting for us in Washington, D.C. That's...
For the last 22 months, Robert S Mueller III’s trump-Russia investigation has been a political total eclipse. It has spent that time blotting the sun out from pretty much everything except mas shootings. But as I wrote earlier today, even though it is critical that the full Mueller report becomes...
No lead-in needed; we all know what’s happened, and we all know what looks to be in the works. Let’s get into the news, but first, let’s get into the players (if you already know all this, feel free to skip): Syria / Assad: No introduction needed. Controls generally the...
