Fake Christian Mike Pence Invites Fake Rabbi to Pray for Victims of Synagogue Massacre

“American Jews, in shock over the massacre of 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue, voiced outrage Tuesday after Vice President Mike Pence hosted an election event with a so-called `Christian rabbi`.

Pence took part late Monday in a campaign rally for Lena Epstein, a Jewish Republican running for the House of Representatives, in suburban Detroit, Michigan.

At the rally Loren Jacobs, who uses the title “rabbi” but espouses Christianity, was invited to speak on behalf of the area`s Jewish community.

Instead of opening up with prayers for the 11 Jews shot dead Saturday at the Tree of Life synagogue, Jacobs praised Jesus Christ and then offered prayers for four Republican candidates.”

Yahoo News

A “Christian Rabbi” is an oxymoron, kind of like an “Evangelical Christian.” American Jews were already in shock over the massacre of 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue, and Pence added insult to injury by asking a faux rabbi to pray for the victims at the end of the rally.

Pence referred to Loren Jacobs as a “leader of the Jewish community here in Michigan,” that`s akin to referring to Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan as a leader of the Islamic community in Chicago.

Jacobs is an apostate who is masquerading as a “Christian rabbi, he`s anathema to Jews.

Messianic Jews, such as Jacobs, primary focus is the conversion of Jews to Christianity. That is simply repugnant and offensive to Jews, he would be as welcome in a synagogue as a Jihadist imam would be at an evangelical church.

Pence and his white evangelical brethren have tarnished the Christian faith by wholeheartedly embracing a short-fingered vulgarian who makes a mockery of the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Not content with destroying the evangelical branch of Christianity, Pence is now sowing discord in the Jewish community.

There is a special place reserved in hell for the likes of Mike Pence and Loren Jacobs.

Kellyanne Conway is Wrong, God Has No Place in the Public Square!

“Kellyanne Conway on Monday condemned the trend of anti-religiosity in America, just days after a mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue left 11 people dead and several wounded.

`The anti-religiosity in this country, that it is somehow in vogue and funny to make fun of anybody of faith, to constantly be making fun of people who express religion, the late-night comedians, the unfunny people on TV shows, it`s always anti-religious,` Conway said on `Fox & Friends.`

She later argued that faith can bring Americans together and said this isn`t the time to be `driving God out of the public square.`”

The Hill

Conway would be well-advised to consult a dictionary before spouting off on Fox News. Most folks, people of faith and atheists, are anti-religiosity. The word “religiosity” has a bad connotation, denoting a person who is excessively, obtrusively, or sentimentally religious.

However, it`s true that there is an anti-evangelical trend in America, in reaction to white evangelicals who have made a mockery of Christianity by embracing a degenerate who is a hell of a lot more similar to the anti-Christ than Jesus Christ.

I`m more liberal than conservative but I don`t make fun of people of faith who proclaim and defend the universal concepts of the brotherhood of man, and respect for individuals regardless of their ethnicity, religion, or social class.

I do make fun of white evangelicals who claim to believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ while worshipping a buffoon who is the antithesis of Christianity.

Faith in our democracy and in the Constitution can bring Americans of all faiths and no faith together, and the deity of your choice can best be worshipped in your home or in a place of worship, not in the public square.

Save our Democracy! Vote Blue November 6, 2018

What is there left to know about Donald Trump? The blowhard billionaire doesn`t bother to put on a veneer of civility to disguise his racism, misogyny and homophobia. He`s so emboldened by the unwavering support of his base that he doesn`t bother with dog whistles, he uses a megaphone to trumpet his bigotry.

Theologians, professors, pundits and bloggers have thundered against his rhetoric and policies that hurt minorities and the disadvantaged and help the wealthy and the privileged.

In the last three years I have written hundreds of essays that chronicle his depravity, racism and misanthropy.

We don`t have to wait for Special Counsel Robert Mueller`s final report, only someone willfully ignorant or complicit in Trump`s corruption can argue that there is insufficient evidence to make the rational judgement that he should be impeached and removed from office.

If the Democrats regain control of the House Trump may be impeached, but the support of his base and the cowardice of Republican Senators ensures that he won`t be removed from office.

We can`t decapitate Trump`s administration, but we must vote for Democrats in the midterm elections so that we can at least emasculate him. The Senate looks like a lost cause, but if the Democrats win control of the House they can not only impeach him, but subpoena his tax records and launch investigations into his corrupt administration.

History will judge this generation harshly for having elected the bastard, but we can make amends by voting for Democrats in the midterms.

Vote! For God`s sake Vote!

The MAGA Bomber is Representative of Donald Trump’s Cultists

Authorities arrested Cesar Sayoc, 56, now and forever to be known as the MAGA bomber, in connection with a series of explosive devices there were mailed to prominent Democratic leaders over the past week.

I would have a hard time saying MAGA philosopher, MAGA scientist or MAGA professor, but the words “MAGA bomber” roll of the tongue.

Batman has his Batmobile and the MAGA bomber has his MAGA van, the side and back windows of the van are covered in disturbing collages of Republican iconography and anti-Democratic memes.

The TV Batman of the 60`s was a campy figure, but there`s nothing campy or ironic about the MAGA bomber. The MAGA bomber is as subtle and nuanced as a sledgehammer, I imagine that in a conversation he would just repeat the memes and slogans that cover his vehicle.

The MAGA Van is a disturbing piece of art, it has images of Donald Trump, the American flag, and there are also red targets superimposed over progressive icons like Hillary Clinton, Michael Moore and Barack Obama.

The same violent imagery also appeared on the MAGA bomber`s Twitter feed, which has been taken down. But why in the name of God wasn`t it taken down before, violent images and hateful words are just as destructive as bullets and bombs.

Unfortunately, the MAGA bomber isn`t an aberration, he`s representative of Trump`s ignorant and racist cultists. I see the same wild-eyed rage and intolerance for minorities at Trump rallies.

Most Trump followers are able to restrain themselves somewhat, and although they may have only one “CNN Sucks” bumper sticker, they are full of the same pent-up rage as the MAGA bomber.

Trump isn`t destroying our democracy by himself, he has the tacit support of Republican leaders, and the undying devotion of his base.

Vote on November 6, 2018 as if the MAGA bomber is living next door, or as if he is your child`s teacher, because the MAGA Bomber`s mentality has infected a significant section of our society.

We must rid our democracy of Donald Trump and his MAGA followers.

Donald Trump is the Conspiracy Theorist-in-Chief

“President Donald Trump on Friday threw his weight behind a conspiracy theory about the bomb-like devices being mailed to Democrats, suggesting without evidence that the packages were designed to suppress Republican turnout.

`Republicans are doing so well in early voting, and at the polls, and now this `Bomb` stuff happens and the momentum greatly slows,` Trump posted on Twitter. `News not talking politics. Very unfortunate, what is going on. Republicans, go out and vote!`

The tweet appeared to give credence to the `false flag` conspiracy theory that the suspicious packages mailed to prominent Democrats and CNN are actually an effort to portray conservatives as violent. Trump offered no evidence to support the claim.”

USA TODAY

Donald Trump views everything through a political prism, and in times of national trauma he reacts in a way that will energize his base, not in a way that will comfort and unite the country.

It is impossible for a narcissist to assume the role of comforter-in-chief; his tweets and speeches only serve to further polarize the electorate. Trump never acknowledged that CNN was one of the targets of the mail bomber, and he never offered public or private words of sympathy to the recipients of the mail bombs.

After Charlottesville Trump`s comments inflamed racial tensions and now Trump is seeking to gain political benefit out of the mail bomber threat by giving credence to the false flag conspiracy theory that the suspicious packages mailed to prominent Democrats, critics of the president and CNN are an effort to portray conservatives as violent.

The #NotMyPresident hashtag is very popular because Trump isn`t the president of the entire United States, he only cares about uttering words and signing bills that appeal to his racist base.

It`s imperative that we vote blue November 6, 2018 to hold Trump accountable, and we must impeach him for in these perilous times we need a president who will represent everyone regardless of political affiliation, ethnicity or social class.

Crazy Cat Lady Kicked Off Flight After Trying to Smuggle Her Cat for Emotional Support

“A woman who smuggled her cat onto a plane was kicked off of the flight by stunned cabin crew.

The passenger from the US told British Airways flight attendants who caught her with the cat she needed it for `emotional support`.

The cat was in her hand luggage, according to the Daily Record, who was told the cat could have got through security at Glasgow Airport.

The woman almost got away with it – but when staff approached her to put her bag in the overhead locker because she was sitting in an emergency exit – the moggie in a box was spotted.”

Daily Mail

Folks are really abusing the concept of therapy animals, passengers have been booted from flights for having “support animals” ranging from squirrels to snakes to pigs. So don`t even think about claiming that a pig is your emotional support animal, for God`s sake just check in Rosie O`Donnell and let her travel in the baggage compartment.

This woman should have been arrested for animal cruelty, how she dare stuff her poor kitty in her handbag. The traumatized cat could have used an emotional support animal of his own.

I love my cats, but I leave my kitties at home, secure in the knowledge that I can deal with whatever as long as I`m wearing my big girl Garfield panties.

If this woman can`t leave her house without a support animal, she should stay home and play with her cat.

Donald Trump is a Liar

“Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci said Wednesday that President Donald Trump is a liar and that he should probably dial down the lying.”

CNN

Scaramucci was appearing on CNN`s “New Day” to promote his new book, a loving tribute to Trump, “Trump: The Blue-Collar President” when he called the president a liar.

Alcoholics get plastered, pedophiles prey on children, crackheads will do anything for crack, philanders screw any warm orifice, and liars lie.

Just like an alcoholic`s addiction for alcohol is what defines him as an individual, a liar`s penchant for bending and twisting the truth is what defines his personality.

Everybody knows that Trump is a liar just like everybody knows Hitler was a racist, there is no need for me to chronicle his decades-long history of lying.

Trump`s supporters could care less that he is a pathological liar, indeed they applaud his lies, especially when his lies reaffirms their racist views.

Members of Trump`s administration, Republican leaders and his friends in the media never call a spade a spade and a liar a liar. Instead they claim Trump was just joking, or exaggerating to make a point, so it was encouraging to hear Scaramucci, an ardent defender of the president, call him a liar.

It is incumbent upon the media, bloggers and anyone with a public voice to call Trump a liar. The truth is diminished whenever we fail to call a liar a liar.

Love Will Prevail Over Trump’s Message of Fear and Resentment

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”

I John 4: 18

“Donald Trump`s campaign message in two words: Be afraid.

My campaign message in two words: Be brave.”

Stephen King tweet

“Horror novelist Stephen King boiled down President Donald Trump`s campaign message for the November midterms to just two words on Twitter Monday night.

And they are: `Be afraid.`

King, who on Sunday bashed Trump for his latest baseless attack on immigrants, also coined his own campaign message to counter Trump`s fearmongering pitch to vote Republican.

`Be brave,` he wrote.”

Huffington Post

With just two weeks to go before the midterm election, Trump isn`t campaigning on the vibrant economy or the astounding success he`s had in placing conservative judges on the federal courts and nominating and confirming two conservative judges to the Supreme Court.

Fear is the first refuge of a racist populist, and Trump is relying on bellicose and inflammatory anti-immigrant rhetoric to motivate his base to vote. Stirring up hatred and fear of Muslims, immigrants, and minorities is what got Trump elected, and he`s relying on the same foul oratory to try to retain control of the House and Senate.

Trump is making the migrant caravan the central issue of his campaign, he warns that the caravan has been infiltrated by unknown Middle Easterners and MS-13 gang members. He`s threatening to send the military to the border to protect us from this invading horde of criminals, gang members and Muslim terrorists.

Trump suggests that liberal bogeyman George Soros and the Democratic Party financed the caravan, of course he doesn`t have any facts to back up his conspiracy theory.

But Trump`s base doesn`t care about facts, they care only about feelings and emotions, and his emotional entreaties resonate with his racist followers.

There is no doubt that Trump`s message of fear and resentment will inspire his cultists to vote, but I`m optimistic that love will prevail over fear, and the Democrats will regain control of the House.

Patriots` love for the migrants who are fleeing violence in their homelands for the hope of freedom and safety in America, will prevail over the bigots who hate black and brown migrants seeking a better life.

Halloween Makes a Killing at Box Office! Jamie Lee Curtis is an Immortal Scream Queen!

“It`s the season for spooky movies, and the new take on horror classic Halloween scared up a monster $77.5 million opening weekend. Star Jamie Curtis celebrated Sunday with what she called a boast post.

`OK. I`m going for one BOAST post,` Curtis tweeted. `Biggest horror movie opening with a female lead. Biggest movie opening with a female lead over 55. Second biggest October movie opening ever. Biggest Halloween opening ever.`”

CNET

Horror flicks usually star nubile bimbos who don`t have the brains not to look under the bed, open the closet door or go down to the basement when they hear a creepy sound.

Jamie Lee Curtis was 19 when she starred in the original slasher film “Halloween” in 1978.

Curtis is now 59, and for an actress of her vintage to star in a horror movie is as unusual as Pee Wee Herman starring in an action flick.

There have been countless of sequels and remakes of John Carpenter`s horror movie classic, and this latest iteration doesn`t compare with the original but Curtis delivers a compelling performance.

I`m looking forward to 20 years from now when Halloween 25 is playing and a 79-year old Curtis playing Laurie Strode is still fighting Michael Myers.

Curtis has every right to boast, she`s killing it at the box office! You go girl!

Silence is Golden

“Finns think if there`s no important topic to discuss, there`s no conversation at all. In fact, one of their national sayings is Silence is gold, talking is silver.

Small talk outside social situations between close friends is virtually non-existent. Interactions with baristas? Limited to the name of the coffee you want to order. Sitting, walking or standing in a way that requires acknowledging a stranger`s presence? Never. (A meme featuring people standing outside a bus shelter rather than under it is an often-posted joke in Finland to illustrate this point.) If you`re a foreigner, congratulations – you`re probably the loudest person on their often (voluntarily) silent public transport.”

BBC

Less is more. My writing style is minimalist, if I was paid by the word I would starve to death.

I don`t like making small talk, if no meaningful information is exchanged, what`s the point?

I avoid parties like the plague, why should I bother breaking the ice with acquaintances and strangers that I just as soon see blowtorched?

I believe there`s a special place in hell for anyone who says “too make a long story short” and then babbles on for another 20 minutes.

I`d rather live in a hovel with monks who have taken vows of poverty and silence than in a palace with royals who just won`t shut the hell up.

I hate the snow and the cold, but the frozen land of Finland sounds like heaven to me, how I would love to live in a country where the national saying is “Silence is gold, talking is silver.”

I wish we communicated by sign language, with only two signs necessary: The extended middle finger and the OK gesture.

I welcome feedback but keep it short and concise.

OCTOBER 2018 ARCHIVES PAGE TWO:

Donald Trump’s Bastardization of Capitalization

When referring to the USA, I will always capitalize the word Country!

Donald Trump tweet

It`s axiomatic that whenever Trump makes a statement on Twitter, you can always find another tweet that contradicts him. Indeed, there are dozens of tweets in which he doesn`t capitalize the word “country.”

This tweet highlights Trump`s habit of capitalizing words that don`t need capitalization, it`s driving me FREAKING MAD! It`s as if Trump is under the impression that the rules of grammar dictate that at least one word in every sentence needs to be capitalized, and so he randomly selects one word in every sentence to be capitalized, whether it needs to be or not.

If you`re wondering why I`m apoplectic over Trump`s bastardization of capitalization, it`s because it`s symptomatic of the maxim that he screws everything he touches.

When you`re president you don`t get to change the rules of grammar, the laws of science or the social norms of polite society.

Screw you Trump! You are a Disgrace and a Joke, and I hope and Pray you are Impeached and Removed from office!

Donald Trump Praises Woman Who Shouted: I Love Your Hair

“President Donald Trump veered heavily off script Thursday night during a rally in Montana after a woman in the audience shouted: I love your hair!

The outburst caught the president`s attention and he repeated her remarks for the thousands gathered at the Minuteman Aviation Hangar in Missoula, Montana.

`You love my hair?` the president said, smiling and pointing to a woman in the audience. `Thank you. She knows what to say. She knows how to make me happy.`”

USA Today

A Trump campaign campaign rally is always a raucous event with Trump`s frenzied supporters chanting “Lock Her Up” and “Build the Wall” and generally behaving like rednecks drunk on moonshine. It`s not surprising that amidst that cacophony the vain blowhard heard a woman shouting “I love your hair.”

If hundreds of protesters shouted ” We love your tiny hands,” the egomaniac would pretend that he didn`t hear them. Trump only hears what he wants to hear, and he does only what benefits him and his family.

When Trump`s staffers try to convince him to support a pet issue they would be well-advised to flatter him before stating their case.

I`m convinced Trump doesn`t wear a toupee, but maybe he should — a wig would be preferable to his comb over from hell which takes a team of hairstylists and architects to construct every morning.

Trump`s sycophants and enablers may think Trump has a regal presence, a meme comparing his urine-colored hair to the mane of a lion is ubiquitous in the social media pages of his followers. But people not inebriated by moonshine of Kool-Aid think his hair is as ugly as his orange complexion and his sphincter-shaped mouth.

But Trump`s ugliest feature is his stony heart that`s incapable of empathizing with anyone not born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Morris the Cat Likes to Ride Champy the Horse: Video

This horse had never been ridden before, and this shelter cat had never had any friends – but as soon as they met, the cat jumped on the horses back and started riding him everywhere!

YouTube video description

With all due respect Champy the horse and Morris the cat aren`t friends, felines don`t have friends, they only have servants.

I lavish my cats with toys and pet furniture, buy them gourmet cat food, and clean their litter boxes every day, but I realize cats consider themselves deities, and they regard me as a faithful servant.

Morris climbs on top of Champy simply because cats like high places where they can survey their kingdom. Morris has as much affection for Champy as he does for a tall bookcase.

I must admit they make a cute pair, but they ain`t buddies!

Kanye West Felt Like Superman When He Put On a MAGA Hat But He Looked Like an Uncle Tom

“There was something about putting this hat on that made me feel like Superman.”

Kanye West

This was one of the dozen insane comments that the rapper made as part of an extended soliloquy during his infamous Oval Office meeting with Donald Trump.

I`m a Latino and if I donned a “Make America Great Again” hat I wouldn`t feel like a superhero, far from it. I would feel like a traitor to my community, considering Trump made dozens of disparaging remarks about Mexican migrants and Mexican-American citizens during his presidential campaign and during his tenure as president.

West is a traitor to his race, he might as well have put on a KKK pointed hat. Trump referred to African nations as “shithole countries,” and he has gone out of his way to mock and ridicule prominent African-Americans.

The phrase “Make America Great Again” implies that there was a time when our country was at the zenith of its greatness. I wonder does West think that glorious era was during slavery, or perhaps the Jim Crow period.

As an Hispanic I`m cognizant of the fact that my people have never enjoyed more opportunities than today, although we aren`t a perfect union and racism is still prevalent. I certainly don`t want to go back to the halcyon days for racists when people of color were treated like dogs.

Kanye, putting on the MAGA hat may have made you feel like Superman, but it made you look like an Uncle Tom house Negro.

Donald Trump (Tiny) and Stormy Daniels (Horseface) Duke it Out on Twitter

“President Trump launched a war of name-calling on Tuesday with adult film actress Stormy Daniels and her attorney as he exulted after a judge threw out Daniels` defamation lawsuit against the president.

Trump said on Twitter that he welcomed the opportunity to take the offense against Daniels – whom he called `Horseface` – and lawyer Michael Avenatti in Texas, where Daniels lives.”

NPR

Expecting Donald Trump to be magnanimous in victory is like expecting a bookie to warmly congratulate you after you`ve won a small fortune betting on an underdog.

Trump went low on Twitter, as he is wont to do, after a judge ruled in his favor:

Federal Judge throws out Stormy Danials lawsuit versus Trump. Trump is entitled to full legal fees. @FoxNews Great, now I can go after Horseface and her 3rd rate lawyer in the Great State of Texas. She will confirm the letter she signed! She knows nothing about me, a total con!

Porn star Stormy Daniels responded in kind:

Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present your president. In addition to his…umm…shortcomings, he has demonstrated his incompetence, hatred of women and lack of self control on Twitter AGAIN! And perhaps a penchant for bestiality. Game on, Tiny.

Stormy does have an equine look about her although she`s not full-blown horsey like Sarah Jessica Parker, but it behooves a gentleman not to make fun of a woman`s appearance.

Stormy made an allusion to Trump`s puny presidential pecker, and suggested that he has a penchant for bestiality. Methinks it`s the porn star who has a predilection of bestiality, after all she`s the one who screwed a baboon-looking racist bastard.

A federal judge dismissed Daniels` defamation lawsuit against Trump on Monday, ruling that a tweet by Trump was constitutionally protected free speech.

Daniels claimed that in 2016 that a man warned her to keep her trap shut, and leave Trump alone. Trump replied on Twitter stating that her story was a “total con job.” Funny how the ultimate con artist is always calling everyone else a con artist, a classic case of transference if you ask me.

I wish the porn star with the face of a horse and the president with the penis of a monkey would both shut the hell up.

Painting of Trump With Past Republican Presidents Hangs in White House

“President Donald Trump liked a painting of him having drinks with Abraham Lincoln, Richard Nixon and Teddy Roosevelt so much that he called the artist on the phone and then put a print of it in the White House.

Called `The Republican Club,` the print of 10 Republican presidents sitting around a table could be seen briefly in the background of Trump`s interview with “60 Minutes” Sunday, and an image of that moment went viral on social media.”

TIME

Donald Trump surrounds himself with sycophants and enablers, and it`s not surprising that there are many photographs of the president and his staff with painted-on-smiles.

But if Trump had drinks with Abraham Lincoln, Richard Nixon, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Gerald Ford and both Bushes I guarantee nobody would be smiling.

The former presidents would be wearing frowns, and they would berate Trump for making a mockery of the presidency.

Trump rarely smiles, his campaign smile looks like the rictus grin of a psychopath. I give props to the artist for making his smile appear natural.

The kitschy painting not only depicts Trump with a natural smile, but it shows a slimmed-down version of the fat bastard.

The only thing that is real about the painting is that it portrays Trump drinking a Diet Coke instead of hard liquor.

This painting has fake news written all over it, why am I not surprised that Trump has it prominently displayed in the White House?

Melania Trump: Donald Trump and I are Fine

“US First Lady Melania Trump has dismissed speculation about the state of her marriage, saying her husband`s alleged extra-marital affairs are not her concern or focus because she has better things to do.

In an interview with ABC News, she said media speculation about her marriage was not `pleasant`.

Asked if she loves President Donald Trump, she said: `Yes, we are fine.`”

BBC

So Melania Trump isn`t concerned about speculation about the state of her marriage because she has better things to do. Really? Like deciding which outfit will provoke the most controversy and outrage or which Michelle Obama speech she will plagiarize for her next speaking engagement?

The state of their marriage is the main focus of most people, because if their marriage isn`t stable it will affect their careers, their family relationships and every other facet of their lives.

But when a gold-digger nude model gets married her husband`s numerous extra-marital affairs aren`t her main focus, her main concern is the state of her husband`s bank accounts.

If you ask any woman who loves her husband, “Do you love your husband?” she won`t respond, “Yes we are fine.” She will indignantly reply, “Of course I love my husband, I love him to death.”

But Melania doesn`t love Trump, she never has, the only thing she loves about him is his fat wallet.

I didn`t watch Melania`s first in-depth interview, she has as much gravitas as feces floating on a toilet bowl. I`m sick to death of Melania and her racist husband.

The Kanye West Donald Trump Show Was An Abomination

“The world is still talking about Kanye West`s bizarre lunch with President Donald Trump – including White House staffers. And many of them are feeling hugely embarrassed by the president`s Oval Office meeting with the rap star, New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman told CNN on Friday.

`If you look [at the president`s] face as Kanye West was doing, essentially, his filibuster standing in front of the Resolute Desk, [Trump] looks speechless and confused, right. [He`s] uncertain quite what to do with this,` Haberman said.”

Huffington Post

In 1972, two days after the Republicans nominated Richard Nixon, Sammy Davis Jr. embraced the presidential candidate while on stage at a Republican Youth Rally.

In the pre-Internet age the photo of Davis hugging Nixon went viral, and the entertainer instantly became anathema in the black community.

The Nixon/Davis embrace is nothing compared to Kanye West`s surreal Oval Office meeting with Trump.

The rap star, wearing a Make America Great Again hat, held forth for almost ten minutes, in a stream-of-consciousness rant that wouldn`t be out of place in a mental asylum, but was totally unbecoming in the Oval Office.

Trump should fire Jared Kushner and anybody else responsible for this fiasco, it was a humiliation for Trump and an embarrassment for America.

In his wide-ranging one-sided conversation Kanye said he was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder and was simply sleep-deprived. I`m not a psychiatrist and I don`t play one on TV, but my diagnosis is that Kanye is batshit crazy. I`ve gone without sleep for 24-hours on more than one occasion, but sleep deprivation never made me act like I was off my rocker.

At the end of Kanye`s profanity-laden pontification, all Trump could manage to say was “that was pretty impressive. That was quite something.” No shit! That was something that should never have been allowed to take place in the Oval Office.

Kanye ended his performance by warmly hugging Trump, probably the worst moment in the racist and germaphobe president`s life.

I hope all of America watched that grotesque display, and will express their displeasure and disgust November 6, 2018.

Alec Baldwin`s belligerent personality isn`t exactly endearing, and I hate making generalizations but most people, be they white, black, brown or yellow, can`t stand the creep.

My assessment of Baldwin`s likeability factor isn`t politically motivated, I`m a liberal who despises Trump.

I think Baldwin has been impersonating Trump for too long, his remark sounds like something Trump would say, except the racist billionaire would have boasted, “the blacks love me.”

SNL has a decidedly non-diverse cast and its viewing audience is predominantly white and male, therefore it`s no surprise that Baldwin`s impersonation is a hit.

But if homeboy took his act on the road, say to the Apollo Theatre, hecklers would shout: Nigga please, get off the stage with your tired old impersonation.

Cats Love Playing Hide and Seek

Cats have a penchant for disappearing and then magically reappearing, unfazed by the havoc they`ve caused.

I have a tiny house and you`d think my 25-pound cat, Tico, would be unable to hide from me for more than a few seconds. But on more than a dozen occasions I`ve torn apart my house looking for the obese feline, and only when I`m exhausted from my search will Tico emerge from God knows where.

I don`t know where my cats disappear when I can`t find them, perhaps they can slide in and out of alternate universes, or maybe the mysterious creatures have the ability of becoming invisible when they want some privacy.

This essay is a warning for new cat owners, if you can`t find your furry critter, hold off on posting a missing cat message on Facebook. Stop looking for the mischievous kitty, plop down on the sofa and watch TV, and I guarantee he will emerge out of the void.

It’s Against the Law for Kids Over 12 in Chesapeake VA to Trick-or-Treat

“In parts of Virginia, anyone 13 or older who goes trick-or-treating can be sent to jail for up to six months according to HRScene.com. And no matter what age, trick-or-treating after 8 p.m. can land you in the clink for up to 30 days. Fines range between $25 and $100.”

KUTV

Teens are full of piss and vinegar and hormones and controlled substances, and they engage in all sorts of mischief all year long, and on Halloween many of them egg houses and vandalize private property.

Our kids grow up much too fast, and if a teen wants to extend his childhood by a couple of years by going trick-or-treating that`s a good thing.

I`d rather see teens trick-or-treating than egging houses or driving around the neighborhood drunk.

Every year there`s always a dozen high school kids who trick-or-treat in my neighborhood, and I always give them candy.

The war on Christmas may be fake news, but it`s the truth that the Chesapeake city code reads:

  1. If any person over the age of 12 years shall engage in the activity commonly known as “trick or treat” or any other activity of similar character or nature under any name whatsoever, he or she shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine of not less than $25.00 nor more than $100.00 or by confinement in jail for not more than six months or both.
  2. If any person shall engage in the activity commonly known as “trick or treat” or any other activity of similar character or nature under any name whatsoever after 8:00 p.m., he or she shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine of not less than $10.00 nor more than $100.00 or by confinement in jail for not more than 30 days or both.

The Chesapeake city officials need to remember when they were in high school and still trick-or-treating. Trying to stop Halloween festivities at 8:00 p.m. is as insane as ending a New Year`s Eve party at 10:00 p.m.

America Will Survive Donald Trump, Brett Kavanaugh and the Spineless Republicans

Brett Kavanaugh the alcoholic/liar/partisan hack/whiny little bitch/drama queen and alleged rapist is a Supreme Court justice, and the Republican Big White Tent compromised of establishment Congressional Republicans, white evangelicals, and trailer park deplorables are in 7th heaven.

Trump controls all levers of power: both houses of Congress, the White House and the Supreme Court. Incredibly, in less than two years Trump has consolidated his hold on power, and even his campaign opponents like Sen. Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio are singing his praises.

Trump has corrupted the White House, Congress and even the Supreme Court which was the last governmental entity that enjoyed a modicum of respect.

Trump is running a victory lap, Republican leaders are touting their success on Twitter, and white evangelicals are shouting hallelujah that Roe vs Wade, and same-sex marriage will soon be overturned by the Supreme Court.

The credible allegations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh, his blatant lies and his weepy partisan diatribe, would have been more than enough to doom his nomination under any other president.

But the Republicans ran roughshod over the process, they were determined to confirm Kavanaugh`s nomination come hell, high water or credible allegations of attempted rape and sexual assault.

Unless the Almighty smites Kavanaugh with a bolt of lightning, he will wreak havoc on the Supreme Court for decades to come.

But Democrats, Independents and the few Republicans who have a shred of dignity left must not despair. This too shall pass, this ugly chapter in American history will soon be over, and the pendulum will swing when a blue tide washes away some of the scum in Congress on November 6, 2018.

Melania Trump’s Africa Trip Was a Fashion Disaster

Melania Trump`s first solo international trip was to Africa, perhaps she was seeking to make amends for her husband`s reference to the shithole countries of that great continent.

Or maybe she just wanted to get away as far as possible from her national embarrassment of a husband, her second international trip might be to Antarctica.

The First Lady is all fluff and no substance, naturally it was her wardrobe selection that caused controversy in Africa and in America.

Fashionistas in America mocked Melania for her beige suit, black tie and pith helmet that resembled the outfit that pop icon Michael Jackson wore in his “Smooth Criminal” video.

Citizens in Africa were outraged over Melania wearing a pith helmet on a safari in Nairobi National park in Kenya. While at the park she feed elephants and pretended to inspect them.

The controversial hat has a link to the colonial era and is a symbol of oppression. Would the clueless First Lady don a Stormtroopers brownshirt uniform while visiting Germany?

With his urine-colored hair, sphincter-shaped mouth and orange complexion Donald Trump looks like a freaking clown, and Melania Trump looks like Michael Jackson on crack, God the Trumps are such an embarrassment.

I Hate Big Butts and I Cannot Lie

“Oh, my, god, Becky, look at her butt. It is so big. She looks like one of those rap guys` girlfriends. Who understands those rap guys? They only talk to her, because she looks like a total prostitute, okay? I mean, her butt, it`s just so big. Ugh, I can`t believe it`s just so round, it`s like out there, I mean, ugh, gross. Look! She`s just so black!”

Baby Got Back

In 1992 when the prescient prophet Sir Mix-a-Lot released “Baby Got Back” with the immortal lyrics “I like big butts, and I cannot lie” black mean fantasized about Shamika and her healthy big butt, while non-black men salivated over Becky and her perky little butt.

Three decades later white men sing non-ironically “Baby Got Back” dreaming about Becky and her Botox-enhanced huge derriere.

A few decades ago most men considered a huge rear end aesthetically and sexually revolting, but now they are urging their women to get a butt implant.

Asian women are buttocks-challenged, but the other day I saw a photo of an Asian model with a huge rump, and I said to myself, “Holy crap, big bottoms have taken over the world.

Kim Kardashian has weaponized and monetized her huge tush to the point where it can move millions in product and break the damn Internet.

Call me unimpressed, I`m down with circa 1990 Becky, big butts are gross. You can set a table for two on Cardi B`s tremendous backside, but I wouldn`t want to touch her fanny with a ten-foot pole. Sarah Jessica Parker may resemble a horse but I`ll take her and her perky little butt over Amber Rose and her grotesquely large posterior any day of the week.

I pray that before I die sanity will be restored and the likes of Kim Kardashian and her butt will only be seen in circus sideshows and niche porno films.

I hate big butts, and I cannot lie!

Who Is The Donald Trump Look-Alike Buying Lottery Tickets? Video!

“A man buying lottery tickets is setting social media ablaze because he looks exactly like Donald Trump.

Video shows the gentleman, dressed in a plaid shirt and checking out scratch-off lottery tickets, at a gas station convenience store. The presidential look-alike is lighting up social media.”

Inside Edition

This dude is a dead ringer for Donald Trump, from his peroxide blond hair to his pot belly to his tiny hands that he keeps hidden from public view in his pants pockets.

If you looked like Trump`s identical twin what would you do?

Make lemonade out of lemons and monetize your bad luck by becoming a Donald Trump impersonator?

Rob the gas station to finance plastic surgery to change your appearance?

Curse God and die?

Go to a strip club and try to get a free lap dance by pretending you`re the president?

Make a sex video with a crackhead whore and extort Trump?

You can`t rule out the possibility that the gentleman in the video really is Trump; maybe he gets a perverse thrill by dressing like out of his supporters.

I may not have Trump`s money, but thank God I don`t look anything at all like him.
