One man will rule them; one man will own them; one man will live inside their tiny little heads forever:
Meanwhile, at the Department of Energy…
This loop should simply be incorporated as Jennifer Granholm’s official portrait at the U.S. DoE. It perfectly captures the level of seriousness she has brought to her performance in office:
What a buffoon.
Speaking of buffoons, I give you the White House Press Secretary:
My God, she is so utterly horrible at this job. Of course, that just make her the perfect public metaphor for this entire administration, doesn’t it?
Yesterday was the 78th anniversary of D-Day, but for the second straight year, our nominal president apparently was not aware:
Now, think about this for a second: This President’s evil handlers issue statements commemorating every insignificant day that comes along.
National Pork Handlers Day? Let’s issue a statement.
LGBTQi+ and all the other letters and symbols day? Put out a statement and raise that rainbow flag.
TSA Security Agents Day? Get that statement out and pat all the White House visitors down.
On and on it goes. But the one day of the year when every semi-normal and cognizant president we’ve had since the end of WWII takes a moment to acknowledge the incredibly brave men who literally saved the entire damn world from having to learn how to goose-step and speak German, and they don’t have the time.
If you think about what would motivate this group of commie fascists to ignore this particular day, the only potential answers are all pretty evil.
Meanwhile at the Washington Post…
The Washington Post appears to be breaking completely down before the nation’s eyes. I had been trying to avoid this story because the fake journalists involved are literally the worst people in the world and I hate writing about them. Plus, it’s just too complicated to tell the story in 1,000 words or less.
But let me try to convey it to you using a series of tweets by other people who are more serious than the buffoon fake journalists involved.
It all started on Saturday when the guy pictured below re-tweeted what he thought was a semi-funny tweet that read, “All women are bi, you just have to figure out if it’s polar or sexual.” [rimshot!]
Obviously, the joke is in poor taste and Weigel should have had better sense than to think it was would be appropriate for a retweet. Predictably, his doing that put one of his female fellow reporters, one Felicia Sonmez, at the WaPo into a steaming outrage:
Shortly after Sonmez issued that reply and then filed a formal complaint with WaPo management, Weigel took down his offending retweet and apologized, sort of:
Of course, that Clintonian semi-apology was not nearly enough for Sonmez, who, like her fellow WaPo reporter Taylor Lorenz is clearly very desperate for attention. So Sonmez spent the entire weekend attacking not just Weigel, but also kept going after WaPo management and another reporter named Jose A. Del Real, who had the temerity to tweet this:
Boy, did Jose’, who happens to be Hispanic and gay, screw up there. During the course of their public war on Twitter, we found out that he and Felicia (because of course her name is Felicia, right?) apparently have a bit of a history going after one another on the WaPo’s internal bulletin board system. Because of course they do. This is a fake journalist soap opera, after all.
Anyway, to make a long story sort of short, Sonmez continued her war with everyone all day Monday, and did not appear mollified when Weigel was suspended without pay for a full month for a damn retweet of a stupid tweet. She obviously wants him fired outright, and given that he’s a white man who very predictably did something stupid (It’s what we white men do, after all) and she’s a protected minority class, she will almost certainly get her way. She will also almost certainly escape without any punishment at all despite her three-day tirade (so far) of airing all of the Post’s dirty laundry in public.
All of this was happening at the same time in which the editors at the Post were having to try to cover up for yet another completely false hit piece published by … wait for it … Taylor Lorenz!
Seriously, how does this woman keep her job? Wait - don’t answer that.
I’m not going to go into the details of Lorenz’s latest fake story because, really, who has time for that nonsense? Glenn Greenwald sums up the Post’s Lorenz dilemma very accurately here:
Now, the thing to point out here is that Lorenz has been employed and protected for many years now not just by the Washington Post, but also by the freaking New York Times, the Hill, the Atlantic, the Daily Beast and the Daily Mail. It’s like a murderer’s row of leftist fake news organs. Everywhere she goes, she leaves behind an insidious trail of horrific journalist malpractice, yet because she is a literal poster child for a protected class, she always, without exception, lands firmly on her feet and becomes a problem for a new set of editors.
Just as Karine Jean-Pierre is the perfect metaphor for the bumbling, corrupt Biden administration, Taylor Lorenz is the perfect metaphor for the utterly corrupt, deceitful national media establishment.
A pox on all their houses. Monkey pox will do just fine.
That is all.
Thanks for stating “the incredibly brave men” of D-Day and not parroting revisionist history myth that has permeated every mention and discussion of every war we have fought with the constant phrase “the men and women” as if women served in the infantry and hit the beaches, hurled grenades, charged pillboxes, etc.
