1. When he's right, he's right!
If #RobertELee is to be erased from history, why not erase #ChristopherColumbus whose arrival ignited genocide of Native Americans?— Geraldo Rivera (@GeraldoRivera) August 16, 2017
This may be the first time in history that anyone has said "you know, Geraldo Rivera has a point." Of course, it's not the point he thinks he's making, but still.
I assume he thinks that the point he's making is that removing a statue of Columbus would be absurd, and that taking down a statue of Lee is therefore equally absurd.
But really, saying "hey, why not take out Christopher Columubus too?" is like someone sayong to me that I should go to the dictor for a checkup now and again ad me responding " oh sure, the doctor. Hey while I'm at it, maybe I should go to the "dentist" too. And get my "teeth" "cleaned." Oh, and I should probably "join a gym" and maybe "read a book once in a while."
2. Talking Points
WH talking points: President is "entirely correct." (This is just a portion provided by a source) pic.twitter.com/0uTPOgc5RF— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) August 16, 2017
Cheeto Mussolini's head is going to fucking explode when NONE of the Republicans dutifully recite these talking points. I mean, a few will, but only because they're the kind of scumbags who actually believe them **cough** PENCE! **cough**
But, hey, Orange Julius Caesar, no one's afraid of you anymore. No one wants your endorsement. No one is going to spout this ridiculous bullshit just because you tell them to.
3. This guy. Hahahahahahaha!!!

Waaaahhhh! What options do we have left?
Um, maybe one option might be to not march around with swastika flags? Maybe not throw up the seig-heil salute? Maybe just accept that the days of honoring traitors who went to war against the United States in order to preserve the institution of slavery are at long last slowly coming to an end?
“I’m terrified you’re going to kill me, I really am,” Cantwell says while choking back tears. That’s a considerably different tune than he was singing earlier in the day while surrounded by his Nazi cronies. “We’re not non-violent, we’ll fucking kill these people if we have to” he said then, adding that it was good that 32-year-old Heather Heyer was killed by a fellow white supremacist at the rally.
“I’d say it was worth it,” he said. “The fact that nobody on our side died, I’d go ahead and call that points for us… I think a lot more people are going to die here.” [source]

Justice Gorsuch will address a conservative group next month, at the Trump International Hotel, naturally pic.twitter.com/3uAg87qrek— Adam Liptak (@adamliptak) August 16, 2017
This is, of course happening as the emoluments case against Il Douche winds its way slowly towards the Supreme Court. Anyone want to make odds on whether Gorsuch will recuse himself?
OMG, what kind of "game with no consequences" did that Tiki Torch Fascist think he was playing? So naive! Grow up, bud, and grow a pair while you're at it too.
ReplyDeleteWhy not disband the United States altogether, since this country's foundation largely comprised obliterating the civilizations that were then present at the time of colonization along with displacing it's residences?
ReplyDeleteThen the Anglos can "return to" the European continent, the Blacks can return to the African continent, the Asian-Americans can return to the Asian continents, the Hispanics can return to Spain and Portugal, and so forth. Then the descendants of this continent's original populations can resume dominion and reign over it once again.
Of course the mixed race individuals might present a problem. Where to send someone who's, for example, Navajo/Hispanic, or Anglo/Black/Japanese, Black/Korean, Anglo/Cherokee, and the like?
Maybe somewhere in Antarctica or Greenland?
