Embarrassingly awful.

 

If elected he'll start World War Three and we'll all die ...  

 

 

 

 

Hey if the price of freedom means that we all have to die, it must be worth it, right? 

 

 

 

 

I think the religious right call it "end of days" which will bring on "The Rapture", so they are all fine with extinction.

For people who haven't run into this, these guys are dead serious about this. This is why the usually antisemitic US religious right support the Israeli Zionist right, because their interpretation of the Bible says that the end-of-the-world conflict will start there (the word armageddon comes from Megiddo in Israel) and they're hoping the Zionists will trigger it in the near future.

 

 

They're actually looking forward to an apocalyptic war that will kill all of humanity so they can spend all eternity in church: Exactly what you're getting in heaven is rather fuzzily defined but there seems to be agreement on it involving spending eternity praising God, in other words a neverending church service with your grandparents.

 

 

I don't think these guys have really thought this one through.

Washington Post: Jan. 6 committee hearing will use clips from Roger Stone documentary

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob intends to show at its hearing this week video footage of Roger Stone recorded by Danish filmmakers during the weeks before the violence, according to people familiar with the matter.

The committee is considering including video clips in which Stone, a longtime friend and onetime adviser of President Donald Trump, predicted violent clashes with left-wing activists and forecast months before the 2020 vote that the president would use armed guards and loyal judges to stay in power, according to one of the people familiar with the hearing planning.

The Washington Post reported in March that the Copenhagen-based filmmakers had recorded footage of Stone as they followed him for extended periods between 2019 and 2021. They were at his side as Stone traveled to Washington for the “Stop the Steal” rallies that spilled into violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Their film on Stone, “A Storm Foretold,” is expected to be released later this year.

When accused of rape, Trump said sexual assault accuser E Jean Carroll was "not my type"

Politico: Federal appeals court punts on writer's suit against Trump over rape denial

A federal appeals court handed Donald Trump an incremental win Tuesday in a libel suit brought by writer E. Jean Carroll over the former president’s denial of her claim that he raped her in a New York department store dressing room in the 1990s.

A divided panel of the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a lower court judge erred when he concluded that Trump, as president, was not covered by a federal law that can be used to shield federal employees from liability over incidents related to their work.

Be funny if it lifted the roof off the place and exposed to view several more broom cupboards stuffed with allegedly ESP-declassified documents that Trump forgot to tell anyone about.

Edited to add: That one was a Prince Andrew piss-take, I'd like to see his take on Trump in the same style.

The NY Times - The Eagerness of Ginni Thomas

 

28 September

 


You don’t have to be a left-wing, anti-Trump minion of the deep state to think it’s a bad look for American democracy to have the wife of a Supreme Court justice implicated in a multitentacled scheme to overturn a free and fair presidential election. ...

 

A longtime conservative crusader, Ms. Thomas increasingly appears to have been chin deep in the push to keep Donald Trump in power by any means necessary. 

 

  • Her insurrection-tinged activities included hectoring everyone from state lawmakers to the White House chief of staff to contest the results. 

  • She also swapped emails with John Eastman, the legal brains behind a baroque plot to have Vice President Mike Pence overturn the election that may have crossed the line from sketchy into straight-up illegal. 

  • Along the way, Ms. Thomas peddled a cornucopia of batty conspiracy theories, including QAnon gibberish about watermarked ballots in Arizona. ...

Ms. Thomas has distinguished herself with the aggressiveness and shamelessness of her political activities, which she pursues with total disregard for the conflicts of interest that they appear to pose with her husband’s role as an unbiased, dispassionate interpreter of the law.

 



EDIT:  After extended negotiations, she has finally agreed to testify "soon" before the Jan. 6 House committee.

Good read about Confidence Man book and Trump's appalling/hilarious ignorance.

I'm waiting for that one to come out. Already finished Divider - another good detailed/in-depth read of Trump's failed presidency.
