Okay, so I've been sitting on about a hundred stories for nearly five days now, having decided to take an extended holiday turkey-coma break from the usual madness, and **** news I post about.

Besides, it's been a (relatively) slow news week, though I must say it's been a joy to click on my newsfeeds and find sports and Black Friday as headliners rather than usual reich winged venom and hate that America has been falling prey to since the coming of Trump and his MAGAS. (And maybe the midterms had something to do with that as well).

So guess I'll drop these developments that I've been holding onto, seeing as how I'm absolutely certain that more of the same is just around the corner.


IN THE NEWS:

Happy with the election results? You can thank this group of voters who stopped the ‘red wave’ - Marketwatch

It wasn’t high turnout by younger, liberal voters that stopped the Republican “red wave” in the midterm elections. It was a huge swing away from the GOP among senior citizens in the battleground races.

The swing was big among men over 65, and huge among women.

So reports a remarkable new poll that focused on the most competitive Congressional races in the country. It was conducted on behalf of the AARP jointly by Democratic polling company Impact Research and Republican pollsters Fabrizio Ward.

“What we found here is exactly the opposite of what the national exit polls found,” said Tony Fabrizio. “The national exit polls found that…that it was 18-34 year olds that came to the rescue, nationally (for) the Democrats.”

But in the battleground races, from July to the election, “the big flip that occurred here was seniors. And senior women drove that flip. The 65-year-old voters…went from favoring the Republicans by 10 to favoring Democrats by 3.”

Among men over 65, the Republican lead halved, the poll data showed.

But among women over 65 the swing was even more dramatic. In July, the Republicans led this group by 2 points. In the election, at least in the competitive races, AARP polling says they lost female senior citizens by 14 points.

And the over 65s made up a third of the voters in these races, Fabrizio said: “Senior citizens certainly made the difference.”

There were multiple factors to explain the swing, the pollsters say.
A big one (or two): Social Security and Medicare.


...and now you know why I kept talking about Social Security and Medicare.

We (who know better) call Trump's whiny bitch "stolen election" mantra the BIG LIE.

But fact is, REPUBLICANS A CHOCK FULL OF MANY BIG LIES. Their cynical definition of "freedom" being one of the LARGEST:

The "Freedom" Billionaires and the GOP are Selling American is Deadly - Raw Story - Celebrating 18 Years of Independent Journalism

excerpt:


"The billionaires and their Republican puppets tell us that real freedom, in fact, means a small number of people being able to concentrate hundreds of billions of dollars in their own money bins while the children of one in seven American families today go to bed hungry.

America’s billionaires and their Republican puppets tell us that the real meaning of freedom is bigger tax cuts for billionaires and more deregulation, environmental poison, and poverty for everybody else.

It’s literally been their governing philosophy since the Reagan Revolution, and everything from Bush’s “Clear Skies Initiative” that empowered polluters, to Trump’s putting an oil lobbyist in charge of the EPA and a coal lobbyist in charge of our public lands at the Interior Department bears this out.

They’ve managed to convince millions of working-class Americans that freedom essentially means the “right” to die in debt, to remain uneducated, and to be hungry and even homeless while working crappy jobs at $7.25 an hour to make the morbidly rich even richer.

But it’s a lie."

Pro-Trump Theocrats Think Voters are "Too Far Gone" — So They Must Discard Democracy (THAT'S YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE IN CASE YOU MISS IT) To "Save America": analyst - Raw Story

Like I said (was it a week ago? my how time flies when you're having fun) I've been so busy with family friends and preparing for the holidays, I haven't even given this 4 chan reject of a so-called "liberal" forum, policed by underhanded and unethical administrators who, having failed to silence truth (so far) have instead resorted to banning me from posting new threads, links, or images

(after which they have the gall to try to engage me in a counter point).

Besides which, most of the news of late has been of Trump, his cronies, and MAGGOT world getting their *** kicked in various ways. And it's been FUN TO WATCH:

MTG and Boebert at each other's throats, Trump and DeSatan too... Trump criminally charged, his quite apparent TAX FRAUD now open for all the world to see... magas falling victim to their own fraud and medical misinformation... Zelinsky speaking before Congress... that big Red Midterm Wave that WASN'T... the George Santos FRAUD... Kar(en) Lake still bitchin' and moaning over her loss... Walker getting HIS *** kicked... Putin on the retreat... Musk-rat world crumbling before our very eyes,

etc. etc. etc.

I mean, hell, TRUTH IS, for us REAL Americans, who STILL BELIEVE IN DEMOCRACY, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION, and who've turned out once AGAIN, to vote down THEIR type of hateful, MAGA, fascist ****, December has been the gift that keeps on giving.

So should I not have time to get back here before the Holidays, let me wish at least a MOMENT of PEACE ON EARTH,

to
MEN OF GOOD WILL.

I must admit, having taken a break for these past holidays, I've found it difficult to bring myself back to posting about the never ending **** show that is the MAGAT Party.

Even though much of the news from them of late has been of one dismal failure and embarrassing humiliation after another. But hey, I imagine there will be plenty enough to write about, once this already apparent hellspawn of the MAGA House REALLY starts showing America who they ARE.

Think this ongoing speaker nomination is a ****, think again. We ain't seen NOTHING yet.

So, aside from a brief dig at how that same body of Congress has fallen prey to a small band of lunatic fascists trying to empower themselves to remove the House speaker at a moments whim, the disgusting spectacle of a groveling **** eating McCarthy to eager to give them their way,

AND the equally SHAMEFUL failure of ALL but ONE REPUBLICAN to even show their worthless faces at today's J6 memorial (making them ALL complicit seditionists, imo, many of whom should've long been behind bars I think, had we a chief justice who wasn't a chicken **** pansy),

I'll withhold any further commentary for now, offering instead, the latest installment of THE SHOWER CAP BLOG, which this time, I've chosen to post HERE:


Welcome to Your New Life, Kevin McCarthy. No Refunds. Friday, January 6th, 2023

EXCERPTS PART ONE:


We’ve seen some stupid, stupid **** together over the years, you and I, but this week…hoo boy. The Republican Party simply will not stop stabbing itself in the brain. God knows why. Just double fisting icepicks and gouging away.

After squandering the most favorable midterm political environment any of them are likely to see, Republicans were eager to turn the page, to move on from the perverts n’ weirdos, but that’s not how it works, campers; you’re a MAGA party now, and for every Doug Mastriano or Herschel Walker you shove back under the bed, there’re ten Chip Roys looking to claw their way into the spotlight.

There will always be another pervert. There will always be another weirdo. This is the life you asked for. Have fun with it.

Yes, weaned on gameshowified politics and the reliably impotent harrumphing of feckless moderates, Kevin’s terrible toddler caucus busted out of the nursery and clamped a vise around his nuts, and who could’ve seen that coming except everybody?

It’s like running a day care center where you feed the kids nothing but Pixy Stix and espresso, screen films from the Saw franchise all day, and then take ‘em to the symphony and expect ‘em to behave.

I’m drafting this after ballot #13, as Kevin parades around with his I Lost Slightly Less Humiliatingly This Time participation trophy, and if he does survive, I’m sure history will view this week’s drastic lowering of already low expectations as a savvy move on his part. This Congress is going to need to measure its successes in Mayonnaise Jars Opened, and even then, don’t get greedy.

Welcome to Your New Life, Kevin McCarthy. No Refunds. THE SHOWER CAP BLOG

EXCERPTS PART TWO:

Not sure how much of the store is left for ol’ Kev to give away at this point, but I have faith in his ability to find creative new ways to debase himself. Not the best vote-counter, perhaps, but a world-class capitulator. This season of Debt Ceiling Chicken is gonna be lit.

...who knows, maybe at some point in the near future, House Republicans will finally manage to drag their sad, saggy selves over the starting line, and I’m sure it’ll be two years of nonstop legislative mastery after that.

Let me add, George Santos waddling around in the background, ducking reporters, voting McCarthy, getting his finger stuck in his ear every couple hours…it’s just an exquisite detail. My compliments, this is one lovingly crafted ****.

I also thought it was a nice touch when the boondoggle lasted long enough to barrel into America’s insurrectiversary in case the lessons about meddling with forces you can’t hope to control were still too subtle for anybody. Which, spoilerz: yup.

Anyway, as much fun as it is watching Kevin McCarthy lose, one can endure just so many pointless floor votes before the thrill of waiting to see what Andy Ogles will do wears off.

Luckily, this train wreck triggered many a MAGA meltdown, as the party of deranged idiots struggled to come to grips with the consequences of a being a party of deranged idiots.

Even Ben Shapiro was forced to acknowledge the “general perception that Republicans are incompetent and foolish.

” Yeah, Ben, you lower the standards a little at a time, until one day you wake up to a headline about Ali Alexander calling Marjorie Taylor Greene a “harlot,” and you realize, “wow, I’m in a political coalition with both of these people,” and I imagine the journey to “wait, are we dumbasses?” is fairly short from there.


end of excerpts... read the rest for yourself 

But yeah, if anyone thinks the extremists among the MAGAT party have come here to Washington to govern, well think again. They've come to be little bitches. And they plan on making America PAY.  Wait for it.

A funny thing happened over the weekend.

Seems all the right winged, Trump acolytes, apologists, sycophants and defenders, in America, in Congress (and herein), who've long held to Trump's "innocence," who've demanded to know what crimes Trump was guilty of (in spite of the plethora of facts and evidence before their very EYES),

and who've long IGNORED Trump's blatant scandals, including the STOLEN documents and the facts surrounding them

(just as they've ignored every other right winged, fascist minded, ignoble expression and act of hate and mean spirited MALEVOLENCE I'VE written of over the last year and several months)

NOW all of sudden want to talk about Biden's classified documents. As IF there is any comparison between Biden's document scandal and TRUMP'S. So NOW they want an investigation (but only of President Biden)

Suffice it to say, the hypocrisy would be astounding... infuriating even. IF any BETTER were EXPECTED OF THEM:

George Conway blasts GOP Rep Jim Jordan for exonerating Trump’s wrongdoing - Yahoo News

excerpt:

Conservative lawyer George Conway slammed Jim Jordan over his defense of Donald Trump.

“Hillary Clinton mishandled classified documents. Joe Biden mishandled classified documents. But the only one who gets his home raided is ... Trump — and he didn’t even do anything wrong!” Mr Jordan claimed on Twitter on Friday evening.

Conway responded: “You wanted to lock Hillary up. You want to impeach Biden. But the only one who you say didn’t do anything wrong is Donald Trump, who not only mishandled documents but also spent over a year refusing to give them back when asked.”

Mr Conway added that Trump “then gave some of them back, lied about giving them all back, after failing to comply with a lawful subpoena”.

He also noted that Trump was “impeached for inciting a violent insurrection in an attempt to overthrow the Constitution” and that he submitted “fraudulent electoral certificates to defraud the United States and obstruct a congressional proceeding”.

The attorney continued: Trump was also “impeached for unlawfully withholding aid to an allied nation in order to extort its government”.

Mr Conway also slammed Trump for:
  • obstructing an important federal criminal and counterintelligence investigation,
  • running a private company that has since been convicted of tax fraud,
  • paying suspiciously low amounts of federal income tax and
  • refusing to disclose his returns by lying about being audited,
  • sexually abusing literally dozens of women, one of whom he raped, and
  • paying $130,000 in hush money to a porn star,
among many, many, many other things”.

Before posting my latest batch of headlines, I thought I'd provide a brief primer on understanding what is what in these threads:

1. Because administrator(s) in no holds barred have barred me from posting links to news articles I post news headlines instead - highlighted in blue, along with the news source. Copy and paste the parts in blue to a search engine and you'll find the article.

2. If I try to post the complete address of the source, the dot com part has been blocked as well. So assume they are all dot com, unless I specify in parentheses, like (dot org) for example.

3. The black writing immediately following the blue headlines are subheadlines. Sometimes they are pulled from within the articles themselves.

4. Everything in italics are excerpts from the articles, usually enclosed in quotation marks with parts sometimes in bold face or red, for emphasis.

5. If it's in black fonts and encased in parenthesis, they are my own personal comments, as are also the section headings preceding the headlines - like MEANWHILE, etc. These are also usually followed by colons.  So, on with it... 

IN THE LATEST NEWS - MAGA AMERICA - GETTING CRAZIER BY THE DAY

In one of the articles below the author speaks of a "disturbing change" in the Republican Party's direction. Disturbing CHANGE? No. Imo, they've ALWAYS been rabidly venomous and **** crazy. It's just that, with the advent of Trump, they no longer try the hide it.

On the contrary. In spite of Trump's having been uncerimoniously BOOTED from his Oval Office OCCUPANY, by both the popular and the jury-rigged electoral vote, and despite the failure of their anticipated midterm "red tide" to materialize,

they've decided to DOUBLE DOWN in their race to the BOTTOM... on the hate, the vitriol, the cruelty, the racism, the bigotry, and the all out CRAZY. The MORE mind-numbingly crazy, the BETTER:

WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING (an article that strikes to the HEART of this thread's overall THEME - WAKE THE **** UP:

Too little, too late: Why the media goes missing when Republicans go on the offensive - Salon (dot com) 

i can't post links in this fascist vunderland, so copy and paste the parts in blue - you'll find the articles.

excerpts:


"The rise of Trumpism and American neofascism was decades in the making. Contrary to what the hope peddlers, wish casters and professional centrists in the political media would like to believe, the roots of this democracy (and larger cultural crisis) are very deep and the poison they have unleashed is not going away any time soon.

From the beginning of Obama's presidency, with the apparent White backlash to the country's first Black president, to when Trump announced that he would seek to capture the White House in 2016, loud warnings and alarms have been sounding about how neofascism and naked white supremacy are a clear, present and growing danger in this country.

The mainstream news media, political class and other elites, however, responded with laughter and shrugs because they lied to themselves, whispering fables into each other's and their own ears, that what Donald Trump and his movement represented could never win power here in America. Of course, they were wrong.

While the folksy saying suggests that it is "better to be late than never," such words do not perfectly apply to a struggle against fascism and other anti-democracy forces. In these last seven years, America's political elites and other mainstream voices have lost a great amount of time in the struggle to defend the country's democracy and may not be able to recover."

A Salon op-ed... damn dude, you are as bad as that slideman fellow.

The author is saying that because the Country didn't elect another black man or other minority after Obama, then that means that we are an inherently racist Nation... which is a total crock of ****.

You oaf's installed an old white guy with dementia after Trump... so what does that say?

BREAKING: **** OUT AT FUX  Image  

That flushing sound you hear is Tucker Carlson leaving Fox News - Breaking! - Dailykos

Fox News said Monday that it was parting ways with Tucker Carlson, its most popular prime time host who was also the source of repeated controversies and headaches for the network because of his statements on everything from race relations to L.G.B.T.Q. rights. 

The network made the announcement less than a week after it agreed to pay $787.5 million in a defamation lawsuit in which Mr. Carlson’s show, one of the highest rated on Fox, figured prominently for its role in spreading misinformation after the 2020 election.

THE CRAVEN NEWS NETWORK:

Not only did CNN go and SEEK OUT Donald Trump for their so-called "townhall," providing prime time exposure for a twice impeached, pathological LIAR...

the same guy who called Charlottesville neo-Nazis 'very fine people,' who bragged about grabbing women by the ******, who begged Russia to hack and American server to find his opponent's emails, who sided with Putin over his own intelligence agencies, who lied to the nation about a pandemic he KNEW to be deadly, who attempted to extort a foreign government for dirt on his next political opponent... who having KNOWINGLY lost has *** off to Joe Biden, deliberately INCITED AN ARMED INSURRECTION AND ATTEMPTED COUP UPON AMERICA'S DEMOCRACY, and who to this day calls his mob of domestic terrorists and insurrectionists heroes, continuing to this day to deny the election outcome...

not only did CNN book this fiasco by allowing a purely partisan MOB of Trump supporters to cheer on, laugh, and applaud his lies, twisted distortions, and vehemently misogynistic attacks upon the woman he was just found guilty of assaulting...

not only did they allow much of his lies, rancor, rhetoric and vitriol go unchallenged....

but they COMPOUNDED the offense by later DEFENDING it as a needed 'revelation' (as it were) of the sick **** inverted mentalities of MAGA and their chose 'god.'

As if WE needed any further clarification of such.

It was nothing of the sort. It was, in fact, a cheap, for profit, Maury-esque vaudeville act hosted by a declining network... and one that only served to ennoble him and his sort of vermin, and only a day after a jury rightfully held the sack o **** accountable for just one of his MANY crimes. So, thnx for nothing, wimps.
