Bananas Republic

I'm SURRRRE all those voters with middle-eastern ties to Gaza are just deliriously happy they voted for Trump.

Yeah, no second-thoughts there.

---------------

Trump: "I wants to send troops to Gaza, bulldoze it flat, then invest our tax dollars to rebuild it as a modern MAGAlopolis."

Trump: "Puerto Rico? Fuck Puerto Rico."

--------------

Trump: "Hey! Federal employees. Retire early and you'll be well-compensated. Trust me."

Also Trump: "Hey, Palestinians. Let us have Gaza and we'll fix it up and give it right back to you. Trust me."

-------------------

Why is Elon making copies of our financial information?
So Trump can take your money.
How could Trump take our money?
By instituting the War Powers Act.
Why would he do that?
Because America was attacked by an Islamic country.
Why would we be attacked?
Because Trump threatened to take Gaza.
Won't the CIA warn us of an attack?
Trump is dissolving the CIA.
Well, then we'll organize and protest.
Trump can shut down all communications, too.
Would he really do any of this?
When someone sets up dominos, it's usually to knock them down.

But her emails.

---------------

Wanna bet Trump's people are already digging through the nation's classified docs, searching for something that will fetch a billion or two from his dictator pals?

---------------

Trump wants to get rid of the FBI and the CIA but not the Secret Service. Which makes sense as the CIA and the FBI departments can hinder his perfidy while the Secret Service is in on the con. (See: Fake assassination attempt.)

---------------

Hey, DOGE-ies! If you REALLY want to cut a couple of trillion dollars from the deficit then repeal the 2018 Trump tax cuts.

Easy-peasy.

----------------

A Final Note: I rarely bandy the beggar's bowl about but if you enjoy this salty little adjunct of progressive snark then please consider throwing a monthly buck or two towards my Patreon. I don't create these 'toons strictly for the dough (There are no ads, either) but it's nice to find self-satisfaction outside of my near-daily slobbering over the traffic logs.

I spend vast amounts of time keeping abreast of the political news, not to mention the time spent pushing my creaky old pirated copy of Photoshop to its limits, so I can't offer much more from your generosity than eating a bug or offering a hand-drawn "Thank you!" but at least I'm not digging through your financial files.

Excelsior!

Seafood salad:

Boil 1# 26-30 shrimps with Zatarains, clove powder and salt. Peel and chill.

Broil 1# jumbo scallops with butter, cayenne and black pepper. Cut in half and chill.

Shell 1# Stone Crab claws, flake half like coconut and leave nice chunks with the rest, chill.

Next day boil 1# tricolor rotini al dente, chill quickly then add 1/4 cup white vinegar and 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil. Chill for at least an hour.

While that pasta is chilling lightly blanch 6 oz. of snow peas and chill quickly. Then slice some red onion razor thin and set aside.

Now - open a small jar of diced pimentos and mix that, the onion and snow peas into the pasta.

Add the tasty and chilly shrimps, scallops and crab claw meat - toss lightly and seal the bowl. Return to the fridge for 24 hours then enjoy the most salubrious seafood salad to be found.

WARNING: this is the equivalent of crack cocaine for seafood lovers - beware! It will keep for a week or so if it lasts that long.

Don't get me started on smoked salmon.....

eddi - Fuck yeah I'll eat a bug. Shrimps is bugs. And tasty little suckers, too!

Trump opens America's voting system to foreign interference.
I thought Russia was already doing that for him. Oh. Just taking another slice off the FBI. That'll learn 'em.

Trump thinks Christians are discriminated against.
If they aren't being discriminated against how can they justify their plans to make us a theocracy? Techno-oligaric-theocracy that is. America are you ready to reinvent yourself?

Judge blocks Trump's EO ending birthright citizenship.
Trump tried modifying the EO. It crashed and burned in Judge Deborah Boardman chambers. And other states are jumping on it with hobnailed boots.

Republicans block Democrat attempts to haul Elon Musk's ass before Congress.
No surprise. The motion is only tabled. hopefully they can revive it.

Trump is trying to sell off federal properties.
Mostly aimed at the GSA's leases on buildings all over the country. Dump the employees, sell the property, profit! Buried lede: He put out a hiring freeze on Federal employees who are not armed.

That should be "Gracing". But then the mental image generated by the typo would make an AI melt down.

To: All y'all out there.
Lefty is serious about those hand-drawn thank yous. I have one racing my wall. I hope he's not serious about eating a bug. But starving artists get their protein where they can.
$5 a month. Totally worth it.

Making children cry is ICE's favorite hobby.

They admit boarding buses but no word on actual kidnappings.

Well, now let's see if I understand things.

TikTok and now DeepSeek are stealing our data, but DOGE, a fake federal agency, is okay, and they are stealing our data and identities.

Comer blocked and claimed Gerry Connolly, D-Va., was out of line. He prefers to investigate Hunter Biden and not a real criminal.

The felon thinks, "If we don't have religious liberty, then we don't have a free country." I don't suppose this came from Russell Vought, who founded the Center for Renewing America, a Christian nationalist organization that promotes One Nation, Under Gawd!

DJT, the felon, believes he is being persecuted.

Christians believe they are being persecuted.

Jews believe they are being persecuted.

Muslims goes without saying.

What do they all have in common? A belief in an invisible sky-daddy they know for a fact is a lie. Tell lies - feel persecuted. End of story!

Starlink, according to Gizmodo, was being investigated by USAID.

A DOGE "engineer" resigned because of racist comments and tweets. Imagine that!

Are you better off now than 4 years ago or will be. Uh-No! I actually slept sounder.

Red Hat syndrome.

Google Chow (Eat hearty, little Google-bots!)

Red Hat: It started about eight years ago, doc. I started having violent thoughts. I was fearful all the time and couldn’t think straight. Now my family and my friends shun me. Honest, doc, I don’t know what I’m going to… Doctor plucks hat off. Wow. Trump’s a lying asshole. Doc: It’s a miracle. Nurse, burn-pile. Stat.
