Midnight Meme Of The Day!

>


by Noah

It's come to this: Things have gotten so insane in America that it turns to John "Johnny Swiffer" Bolton in hopes that a slimy slug with a strange little mammal clinging to its face might save the day by testifying at the Trump impeachment "trial." Good luck with that. Sure, I'd like to see it but can anyone trust that he'd do and say the right thing? Hey, it's all part of the circus!

Since it's, at present, unlikely that the Russo-Republican Party will allow John Bolton to testify, I have a better idea: If multi-billionaires Michael Bloomberg and Tom Steyer really want to help this country, really care about America's future, they should buy John Bolton an hour or two of weekly primetime television where Bolton could read excerpts from his upcoming book. Bolton says he wants to testify. Let him sort of crash the party! They could offset some of the costs with bowls of Cheetos as product placements. Add in Stormy Daniels and some other porn stars parading big cards of Bolton book quotes or pointing them out on a big board ala Vanna White and it could be quite a show!

About Bloomberg and Steyer buying an hour of television time for Bolton to rant with porn stars doing the Vanna White thing in the background: does Johnny even LIKE women?
AFAIK, he only sees them as targets of opportunity for his war urges.

I love the idea of parading bimbos with huge cards of quotes from ... well, Bolton's book, but you could use trump's own quotes too ("grab 'em by the pussy...") and quotes from a dozen other books.

hire cars with sign boards to follow john Roberts and susan collins everywhere they go.

bury the senate's servers with e-mails of just such quotes to susan Collins.

won't matter, of course. America is a shithole and americans are dumber than shit.

Wow, Noah!!!!

Neal Katyal just blew up the whole witness aspect in today's editorial in the NYT. He makes a strong legal constitutional case that the Dems can ask Roberts to issue subpoenas for witnesses and that he has the power to do so, with a 2/3 majority, not a simple majority, to override his decision.

It is a similar bomb shell to Lawrence Tribe's post that there is no constitutional time frame for passing over the articles of impeachment, which Nancy took seriously and did, to great effect.

A whole new angle for the Dems? Will they pursue this? What will Roberts do? Oy vey. So far, he has sat there smiling and relaxed with apparently feeling no pressure to do anything of value. This would put ENORMOUS pressure on him. Ha ha ha ha. Another cliff hanger possibility. It is so stressful to watch all of this unfold. As soon as it seems almost over, sigh, something new pops up.

I wonder what Sandy Pearlman would have to say about Dan's new book.

Hone, if you still hope for the democraps to grow a ball, forget it.

they don't want trump removed. they want him there to run against, since they are not going to give anyone anything to run ON. Either biden or pete will be the nom, and if both of them light themselves on fire, amy klobuchar will be it. The DNC will NEVER let Bernie win and will blow up their convention to make it so.

They would much prefer to lose again to trump than let Bernie get amywhere near their sacred corrupt neoliberal fascist party's nom.

read Thomas N's offering above this one.

I have to agree with 11:42, Hone. Both parties are being rallied to defend corporatist rule against We the People.

Attempting to organize a real resistance (instead of the fake one too many DINOs hide behind) is going to be difficult now that the ISPs are going after lefty bloggers and making it nearly impossible for them to continue posting. My son reports that Yahoo is censoring emails, blocking those they deem "hostile" and "potential terrorist threats". I'm waiting for Trump to issue an executive order making the gathering of more than a few people in public illegal.

Once that happens, we will find out if enough people really care about their rights to do something about it. I'm not holding my breath that they will be able to tear themselves away from their inane media long enough to accomplish anything significant.
