Kim is looking unusually well-groomed in this photo. Even his hair has been tamed.

Being a deplorable, con person is something that has been happening for decades. This is a long article but if you want to skip to the section "An oilfield in the placenta" you will see the conservative party in the USA has been hustling and taking money from deplorables for a long time (the article is dated 2012): The Long Con | Rick Perlstein (thebaffler.com)

The NY Times - Florida Proud Boy Sentenced to 10 Years in Capitol Attack

04 Jan 2024

A Proud Boy from Florida who went on the run after being convicted of using pepper spray on police officers during the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was sentenced on Thursday to 10 years in prison. ...

 

Worrell used his pepper spray on a group of police officers, allowing a portion of the mob to surge up stairs outside the Capitol and become some of the first rioters to break into the building. ...

 

In August, just four days before his initial date for sentencing, Mr. Worrell cut off his G.P.S. ankle monitor in the parking lot of a Walmart and went on the run.

 

He was ultimately caught six weeks later at his home in Naples, Fla., and returned to Washington for a new sentencing hearing.

 

... and another one bites the dust ...  😉

What a load of bs. I hope this case gets thrown out before it goes anywhere. Her family should be suing Trump, since he started the whole circus to begin with! 😠

This whole thing summed in two tweets by prominent idiots:

kingdragonfly: From the article: ""Ashli did not go to Washington as part of a group or for any unlawful or nefarious purpose," the lawsuit says. "She was there to exercise what she believed were her God-given, American liberties and freedoms." 

She believed wrongly, and this lawsuit should be rejected on the basis of why she was really there - it certainly wasn't for the reason in the lawsuit.

Unsurprisingly, the orange buffoon often makes this woman out to be a martyr at his rallies, when she was anything but. She was just as bad as the rest of the thugs who were there fighting for Trump.

Funny now how he needs their votes he starts to "care" about them - yet right after January 6 he was happy to hang them all out to dry as they failed to do what he wanted 🙄

You never, ever hear about Trump paying for any of their lawyer's bills or doing anything along those lines, simply because as his group of thugs didn't achieve his goal, they ceased to be useful to him. And the hardcore MAGA crowd are such a bunch of gullible suckers, I can see something similar happening over and over again.

Rather than tone down her antics, she just jumps ship to a neighbouring district. I hope she loses big time there, maybe she'll start acting like an adult then? 🙄

Oh, well. At least he found a different tie to wear in this interview as opposed to his one yellow one, which seems to be the only tie he has 😀

God I hate Roger Stone, smarmy git, right up there with Jared.

Deplorable Republicans get called out (and owned) by a not-deplorable Democrat, who also manages to make a very good point.

Could the honeymoon be over already for the newly-minted Speaker of the House?

Just about finished Liz Cheney's book and she actually fully agrees with me:

Donald Trump has repeatedly said he blames Ashli Babbitt’s death on the Capitol Police. Yet if anyone other than Ashli Babbitt is responsible for her death, it is Donald Trump. She died trying to keep Donald Trump in office. She died because she believed Donald Trump’s lies. Donald Trump could have and should have put a stop to all of this before she died. This was his responsibility.
