who might
enjoy it too
yeah hi
I'm Roxanne
if you're listening live
well feel free to
pop on by the aforementioned
Mary Wacky Zaney
where the gang has
gathered together. I see
Ralphs and Sylvie
gathered in there today.
It's not as easy for me to see
who's in there now that we're on
Discord as it was in the
old room, but Discord
works better.
So
feel free to pop by,
engage in some
scintillating conversation,
and we'll see what happens
during the broad
mercy a new week a new day the second full week of april
well not aprilie with the sure suit the druth of marches percy to the ruta
that's my bad chaseria in middle english for the day
it's probably the first thing i ever memorized because my mother whispered it to me in my crib
She loved the Canterbury tales.
But, yeah.
And even as we speak, those shoers are druthing this area.
April showers, Mayflowers, Mayflowers, white colonizers, you know, that kind of thing.
Right.
Sorry.
And behold, in April, there will.
be pollen and there will be much sneezing.
Yay.
But at any rate, we begin a new day and a new week with like every program here at the horn, gratitude.
So thanks go out to Gary and Gaia and to Ralph's.
Ralphs came through on her Orban challenge.
I had just seen the notification go by that Wichtor Orban, fascist darling of the maggots and fascists, going to love them some fascists.
God is ass stomped!
I mean curb stomped in Hungary.
And by the way, Hungary is, of course, the poorest nation in all of the EU.
funny how that works
yeah
and I guess
it appears that people
after 16 years of near
dictatorial rule
the
Hungarians were ready for a change
Brother Deacon Asa and I were
talking yesterday evening
and I said I still did
you know Orban conceded
defeat, but I said I would not be at all surprised, and I still will not be.
You know, as soon as Nitwitnero
gathers consciousness of it,
for him to
That election was stolen, a voter fraud.
They were busing busloads of people in from Massachusetts to Budapest.
me
yeah
but
there
but anyway
back to the
gratitude
thank you Gary
thank you so much
and
thank you to Tony
in Chico
and
thank you so much
to our
friends
at
a friend
at Postal Wait
Ed
and thanks
as well to David in Oregon.
Thank you all so much for being partial sponsors of the program.
Where we find ourselves?
Well, the brown paper bag funding deficit is at 1769 and 63 cents.
Thank you, Jeremy.
Because I do love that.
I love the sound of, I love the jingle of loose change.
No, that's not 69.
That's 19.
1719.
1963.
So thanks one and all for helping keep all of this afloat.
Basically where we find ourselves is with almost six full unfunded days of broadcasting.
$269.63 would get us down to only one week behind.
Right, yeah.
And, of course, resource, the password that has to do with what we have.
Our blockade of the blockade of the Straits of Hormuz has begun, at least in theory.
We've got about 15 United States Navy vessels in and around the Persian Gulf.
Over the weekend, the maggots got caught in a ginormous lie.
It was Saturday morning when I saw a notification come through that, in fact,
that the U.S. had sent ships successfully through the straits.
No, not really.
We didn't.
It was a lie.
Yeah, because it came with some fanfare.
The Pentagon claiming Saturday two U.S. Navy destroyers had, quote,
transited the Strait of Hormuz without incident, and then the truth came out.
Because everything that these goons say is subject to fact-checking because they are literally...
Unbelievable.
And it didn't take very long at all.
to disprove the Navy's claim that the two destroyers were clearing sea mines placed by Iran.
And said, no, no, we were never threatened by Iran.
Then the truth, like I said, the truth came out.
among other things
the Iranians sent
an unmanned aerial vehicle
in the direction of the vessels
and you know this is one of the oldest
tactics in the world
if you've got a narrow stretch
of water
you put heavy
munitions
facing it with lots of firepower
and one ship
or two destroyers
probably would
be pretty defenseless against something like that. I think about just within history,
oh, what's that old saying? Among other things, it provided a nice title for Tom Petty and the
Heartbreakers back in the 80s. Damn the torpedoes. Admiral David Farragut, 1864,
trying to get past Fort's Morgan and Gaines
the entry to Mobile Bay
and submerged mines back then were called torpedoes
and he said damn the torpedoes full speed ahead
and then like I said Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
what a fantastic album that was
there's not a bad track on that whole album
but
it's
not as simple as it may
have seemed at the time
um
nitwit Niro lied about it saying
the Navy has begun the process
of clearing out the straight of
hor moose and because
they're liars
well
it was a lie
uh huh
and then the
uh
actual audio
came out, the audio that was received by the U.S. destroyers as follows.
U.S. Navy warship 1-2-1. This is SEPAN Navy Station. You must alter course and go back
to the Indian Ocean immediately. If you don't obey my order, you will be targeted. Out.
Passage in accordance with you.
U.S. Navy worship, transiting in the vicinity, FOJ report and Oman Sea.
This is support Navy.
This is support Navy.
Last morning.
Last morning.
Last morning.
I feel sorry for that woman who was on the mic there aboard that ship.
They made her call it a coalition ship.
Coalition?
Who?
Was there a Moroccan monkey aboard?
We're in this on our own.
Was she talking?
I mean, who was she talking about with coalition?
and that Saudi prince in her pocket?
Attention all vessels, attention all vessels in Omansea.
This is Iranian Sepah Navy.
If you see any warship in your vicinity,
keep a distance more than 10 miles from them
because I'm ready to open fire on them,
without any warning.
because they'd already given the warning.
See, as compared with the barbarian in the Pentagon,
namely the DUI hire Whiskey Pete Kegbreath,
who said,
there will be no mercy,
and no quarter.
Only dimes.
They did that according to the law of the sea.
They issued a warning.
and the United States Navy turned around and went back where it came from.
Now, just how, and it should be noted,
it's not like the Navy and the Pentagon generally just noticed the Straits of Formos.
We've known what a choke point that is, and the one not too far away entering the Red Sea.
That's a choke point.
As I've noted in the past, you know, the Bosporus there at Istanbul.
There are choke points among the islands of the Pacific.
And, you know, the planners, they take that sort of thing into account.
But taking into account and thinking it's a good idea are entirely separate matters.
Oh, my God.
We are in such a stupid time with such bad, dumb, so-called leadership.
You blockaded these straight and poor movies?
Well, we're going to blockade you back.
And I'm sure the markets just absolutely love the chaos.
I mean, what a good time.
And then, well, note coming in from Sylvie.
Jesus H. Trump.
Seeing the image of baby Jesus Trump wants to be the Savior,
we have a little test for him.
Points to a hammer, several long spikes, and a stack of lumber.
You have three days, Donnie, to prove it.
Grab him, boys.
Well, you know, they've been, just like I mentioned a moment ago,
that planning for a blockade of the Straits of Formuz has been on the board for a while.
Well, they've been contemplating this day for a while down at Crazy Dave's Crucifixion Emporium there in Talibanianapolis.
They have nail guns.
But speaking of that picture of Jebus, or Trump as Jebus, well, it's not playing very well.
especially among the
kha-k-k-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-christian maggots.
No, not at all.
To the point that, well, let's check in
with that little podcast,
formerly hosted by Chuckles Kirk,
hosted lately by some podcasters named Andrew Colvette
and Blake Neff and
today a dude bro named Joshua Hames
Nitwit Niro posted the AI image
Oh God, there were eagles and American flags
And fighter planes and him as Jebus
With a white dress on
And the crimson shawl
Laying the Heelan hands of faith
On a man apparently dead
And I can't
be the only one who noticed this the dead guy looks like Jeffrey Epstein no wow and so
there at that tacky little toilet paper USA podcast they were troubled yeah that's the term
isn't it troubled he denies it he says he was a red it was a picture of him as a red cross trying
to heal people Joshua were you outraged
Did you resonate with the outrage about his Jesus post?
Yeah, I mean, I saw some defenders, some Christian defenders jumping on.
And there's some good plan trusters out there.
I love the plan trussers.
And we'll get into that taxonomy we were talking about here in a minute.
But basically saying that, no, this wasn't Trump pretending to be Jesus.
This wasn't him posting an image of him as the Messiah.
Ultimately, in fact, what they did is they actually pulled up a bunch of different pictures of
the popes dressed in that garb.
So basically, they were arguing that what he was actually doing
is going to battle against the Pope.
He wasn't claiming to be Jesus.
Now, like the little powerful hands there
that he's got in that photo.
To me, it seems like that he is doing
the comparison to our Messiah.
And I'll tell you what, when I first saw the picture,
I just, I hated it.
I hated it so much.
I didn't like it at all.
It screamed blasphemy, honestly.
And here's the thing, though,
Yeah, but hey, Joshua, buddy.
And really, I mean, that's what I said.
That is a fan, freaking-tastic porn stash, little guy.
This guy's no more a Christian than I'm the Ayatollah of Iran.
But, yeah, this is, this, this, this is the bridge too far?
Grab them by the pussy wasn't?
Uh, shut up Piggy, wasn't?
No, no.
His name appearing tens of thousands of times in the, in the Trumpstein files, wasn't?
No, no.
I mean, there's a list.
I couldn't help noticing that, did you hear the reference to tiny hands?
Oh.
And, and, and, and, and this little neo-maxy zoomed weavy has,
a bit of a smirk on his face. It's like, ah, we're all in on it. Come on. Be Jesus. Now, like the
little powerful hands there that he's got in that photo. To me, it seems like that he is doing
the comparison to our Messiah. And I'll tell you what, when I first saw the picture, I just,
I... But, but, but dude, take the win. He's portraying himself as Jesus and he's white,
because we all know your Jesus is white, right? Joshua. Who has the same name as
Yeshua, the brown-skinned Palestinian day laborer and semi-literate itinerant rabbi who were a dress every day of their life.
I hated it. I hated it so much. I didn't like it at all. It screamed blasphemy, honestly. And here's the thing, though, I take everything that Trump posts on social media with a grain of salt. You know, I know that he's trolling. I know that he's messing around. And here's the thing. I know that, well, here's the thing. I don't know Donald J. Trump.
heart. But he does not strike me as the type of man who is in love with his Savior Jesus,
the type of man who is in full submission to Jesus Christ and his law, who wakes up every morning
and goes to the Word of God as his ultimate and infallible.
No, dumbass. In that case, you'd be talking about the Pope. Right. Who's had a few things to
say? We'll get to that. He doesn't strike me as that kind of guy. So I'm not necessarily
expecting him to behave like a regenerate Christian. This is the kind of thing that I would expect from,
you know, like Trump is kind of a 90s Democrat, which in today's terms is, you know, you're a radical
far-right extremist. I get the idea that they've got some really good nitrous or ether or
something there and there because, I mean, they got a toilet paper USA has enough money to burn a
soft and wet herd of softened wet elephants with softened wet $100 bills. So what it takes to say that
Trump is a 90s Democrat.
Yeah.
Because of the way the Everton window has shifted so much.
So I don't know.
I saw it.
I didn't like it.
And I think it's good for us as Christians to voice that and make it very clear that, hey,
we are not going to accept blasphemy from our president.
Okay.
We're not going to accept that.
You need us.
Okay.
I'm very...
And by the way, the post got pulled once the, once the fecese.
hit the circling fan blades.
Be thankful for so many of the things that Trump has done.
In fact, I believe that he has done more for Christians than any other president in my lifetime,
which he kind of outlined in his...
Well, he certainly has made a mockery of the very idea of Christianity.
So they've got that, which I guess is great for them.
Post, where that picture originally came out.
I'm your friendly neighborhood Christian nationalist,
and so I always want to go to the word.
We can.
Your friendly neighborhood Christian nationalist.
What an interesting way to say I'm a Nazi.
And then I'll transition right into that taxonomy.
Like I said, it's a great porn stash.
You just need to take about three quarters of an inch off the left
and three quarters of an inch off the right.
And bang, there you are, buddy.
Home at last.
I appreciate Donald Trump so much for all the
he's done for Christians. However, I want to issue this warning from Scripture because you mentioned
exactly what I have noticed as well, which is even his thought process may not have been blasphemy.
It was just people love me here. I'm putting it out there. They're praising me. I'm putting it out
there. And so I want to read Acts chapter 12, verse 21. On an appointed day, Herod put on his royal
robes, took his seat upon the throne, and delivered an oration to the people. And the people were
shouting, the voice of God, the voice
of God, not a man. Immediately
an angel of the Lord struck
him down because he did not give glory
to God, and he was eaten by
worms and breathed his last. Now,
Oh, don't tease us with a
good time, you little fuck.
I do you mean little fuck?
I read that because I really
like Donald Trump, and I want him to
I want to see him in heaven. I want to enjoy
Oh, we do too, honey.
We do too. Yeah.
You know, for a couple of milliseconds before he goes where he's been headed all along.
Yeah, just, yeah, see him in heaven right there.
Pearly Gates.
Jesus reaches down, pinches his little orange head off and, you know, like getting rid of a cigarette,
but just flicks it down into hell where the imps and demons will use it for a soccer ball for all eternity.
Company with him.
I mean, he's got a, he's got a soccer trophy after all, right?
Eternity.
And so my hope and prayer for him.
is that he would hear this warning to see what happens whenever we try to soak up the glory for ourselves and we don't give it to our maker because honestly i believe that the only way that we can heal our nation is not with christ
there is no way this little dweeb was made by the almighty no way no no he's he's he's he's the human equivalent of going to the day old bread store where the creator is concerned
less conservatism, but we must look to Jesus Christ and give glory and honor to him.
So as long as you're white, because he's a white nationalist Christian, right?
Because white and nationalist come before the Christian part.
Oh, well, thank you.
Thank you very kindly, Lee, in New York.
Ramalama ding-dong for you.
Don't tease us with a good time.
Deserves it, says Lee.
well I will happily take it thank you
but this is not going over at all well
and I think it's probably a sign of his ongoing
and deepening intellectual cognitive decline
and it all started on that
Wednesday before Easter
when Paula White Kane
who plundered the bank accounts of journey
he, yes, declared that he was the same as Jesus.
I like that.
I don't want to see him in heaven.
Yeah.
Will people have like little porn stashes in heaven?
There's so many questions, you know.
Enunciated so well eons ago, 1993.
by the crash test on these.
I love this album.
I still listen to it from time to time.
Skip a bit, sister.
Good Canadians, these guys.
Brad Roberts, Ed Al.
After seven days,
he was quiet and tired.
Had there be a day
just for picnics
with wine and milk.
Brett gathered up to people he had made.
Created blankets.
Made back from the sheets.
He'll sip their wine.
And what with God.
It's, yeah, right there in the gospel of Brad Roberts.
Oh, his voice.
If you're right, yeah.
So, I don't think, well, one, I don't think heaven is real.
although I'm kind of working on my own
theology and there may be a caveat there
I don't know I'm not sure
but one thing I do know
is that
he's not the only one
who didn't take well
to that
that post
no no
even the goobers over at
MAGA TV
had a problem with it
Yeah. Real America's voice didn't take too kindly to it either.
No. It's so cute because they think they're Christians.
To both of you, so let's get to a bit of the controversy this morning.
This picture, President Trump posted on Truth Social.
He did it at about 10 p.m. last night.
It is getting a very strong reaction.
Let's take a look at it.
He was sundowning.
The picture speaks for itself.
Let me say a couple of things about it before I get to you guys real quick.
Let me be very clear.
Take this down, Mr. President.
Look, you've done a lot of great work defending Judeo-Christian principles since you've brought down that golden escalator in 2015.
But you're not God.
Dumbass, David Brody, the golden escalator should have been a warning, just like the golden toilet.
And the gold and everything else,
and the tacky shit that he's decorated the Oval Office with this time through.
The man loves gold.
I would dare say he loves gold on a level of,
similar to that of, well, Marcus Likinius Crosses.
And the irony is not lost on me.
Yes, she's already gone there.
We're barely into the first program of the week,
and she's already back in the ancient Roman days.
Marcus Likinius Crosses was the richest man in the world.
Maybe the richest man in the world has ever known.
But he also had to prove his worth militarily under the Roman Cursus honorum.
And so they gave him some legions and said,
Go and pacify the Parthians.
For anybody interested, the Parthians were Persian.
and he marched his legions across.
You know, what would that be?
The Wia Amelia, was that it?
It crossed from northern Italy over it into Greece.
Yes, he crossed at, you know, well,
Constantinople had not yet been founded,
wouldn't be for another two or three hundred years.
But he crossed there.
He crossed the Bosporus into Asia
and boldly marched his legions off
to teach those Persians a thing or two.
Is this sounding familiar yet?
Richest man in the world.
Pride, hubris,
no real talent for military stuff.
And the Parthians promptly whipped his ass,
took Marcus Lakinius Crosses hostage prisoner
and then the king of the Parthian said,
hey, Marcus, buddy, we hear you have a love for gold.
Is that right?
Oh, yeah, I love me some gold.
More the better.
Good, good, that's what we heard.
That's what we heard, yeah.
So we are going to satisfy,
we are going to grant your wish.
Oh, my goodness gracious, Crossus.
We have so much gold here.
We've got so much gold, we don't know what to do with it.
So we're going to let you have all the gold you want.
Is it molten yet?
Yeah?
The furnace is good?
Cool.
Well, staking out here.
Yeah, get a dental dam, open his mouth.
Uh-huh, yeah.
And at this point in time, Crosses is going to.
And they poured molten gold down his throat.
And that was the end of Marcus Likinius' crosses's thirst for gold.
So there's nothing really new in it.
When those unbathed dirty Spaniards landed in Mexico,
Cortez's people explained to the locals
that all those Spaniards suffered
from a disease of the heart
and it could only be cured
by gold
and hence the Spanish flag of the time
in the color of blood
and gold
anyway we were saying
David Brody was saying
I you're flawed
I'm flawed
all of us are flawed
every single one of us are
now I love so much
who that just gave me an idea
you know
who is it
Anthropic has an AI called
Claude
this may be a great example
of truth in advertising
we need an AI
called flawed
if you want
you can spell you know because everything
in everything these days
that has anything to do with the internet
has a stupid name
we could spell it
F-L-A-U-D-E flawed
and it would be the most honest of A-I's
because everything that came out of it
would be in some lives
fundamentally wrong
just like every AI
remember when the AI
murdered Jose Andres'
security team in Gaza
yeah
I got to be careful though
when I bring up things like Gaza
I don't want to be perceived as making light of it because, well, Gaza has an ancient history.
Ashkelon, it's mentioned in the records of the ancient Egyptians.
The Egyptians controlled Gaza for a while.
Battles were fought there. Gaza is mentioned in the Bible.
And it was the terminus of a great trade route that led up out.
of Africa
through Egypt
or across the Arabian
Peninsula
and there was a lot of
a lot of
precious items, trade goods
that went along those trade routes. In fact
you could make a convincing case that the three
wise men, we don't know
that there were three, it's just we assume
there were three because there were three gifts. Gold.
There's that gold again. Frankencence
and Mur.
and frankincense and myr are forms of incense
and so the wise men may have actually gotten their frankincense and their
mur from Gaza before they took off following the star in the east
we've seen his star in the east they said yeah
and so they show up with the gold and the frankincense and the mur and
So like I said, given the horror and everything, I always want to make sure that I'm not making light of anything because to make any sort of joke about Gaza would be incensedative.
Anyway, back to the clip.
What this president has done, so don't misread anything when it comes to that.
But I'm going to call it as I see it when I disagree, and I vehemently disagree in this situation.
T. Bates.
Yeah. So similar to you, I saw this while it was probably about midnight for me, midnight one o'clock, my time.
I was up, and I was going through True Social and see this picture.
And it kind of took me back. I looked and it kind of...
Imagine that you spend your Sunday evening.
These are Christians, remember?
They spend their Sunday. He spends his Sunday evening, not in prayerful studies.
of the word of the Lord Jesus Christ.
No, no, no, no.
Oh, well, kind of, because he's scrolling,
type social.
I was trying to figure out, okay, what's he trying to say here?
And it's taking me until now to really kind of digest this,
and I just don't get the point.
I agree with you, take it down.
But what point are you trying to make here, Mr. President?
I don't understand it.
And whatever the point is.
Okay, see, this is why he doesn't understand it.
The nature of dementia, whether it is through some organic process or whether it is a function of having been a freed speak for decades and decades snorting rails of Adderall or whatever is easily to hand, it changes your brain structure.
It changes the way you think, and eventually it tells on you.
And it'll, yeah.
I'm not so sure you're going to convince me that this is appropriate, Allison.
Well, I'd have to agree.
But the question is, what is the point?
And that's something, David, with your background,
I would love for you to take that 40,000-foot view.
What is going on here?
What is this messaging?
Because the president puts out very controversial material, and I don't think we can take it at face value.
So what is the underlying narrative that he's trying to get at here?
I believe that he is trying to suggest in this post that he is doing God's work,
that he is doing God's work for America.
The problem, so that's the answer to your question.
The problem here is the red robe.
and him being the central figure in it.
If you're going to be saying that,
then you're part of, if you will, God's army, right?
Aren't we all trying to do the best for the kingdom?
So go smaller in the picture, put God at the front of it,
and you in the background.
You're not the foreground, Mr. President.
You're not.
And that's my point, guys.
And I'm pretty stringent and very serious about this.
To be clear, I just want to be clear,
I love so much of what President Trump has done,
in both terms. A lot of stuff. Daddy,
we really love you.
We do, Daddy.
Oh, but we're not...
And we worship you.
We already...
And see, that's why he posted it, because he knows they worship him as a God.
I mean, we joke about my forays into ancient history and whatnot.
But no sooner had they...
They...
Bound up dead Caesar's wound.
then along comes young Octavian
declares that his adoptive father
Octavian was his grand nephew for God's sake
Caesar probably barely knew the kid
and declares his
his adoptive daddy a god
getting declared a god on earth was no big deal back then
it was kind of expected
I mean pharaohs were God
Yeah.
For the most part, the Greeks resisted the urge,
but the deification of the deification of human beings was all the rage there in Rome.
Yeah.
But this is not right.
He needs to take it down.
I absolutely respect that.
My question is, who is this picture meant to provoke?
I'm not sure.
that that's what i don't know if it matters
well david brodie doesn't know if it matters but the fact of the matter is
it's not meant to provoke it's meant to confirm
because the maggots were supposed to fall on their knees and say
he is the second coming of jesus
matters i mean i get it's a legitimate question i'm not saying it's not a legitimate
question uh i don't know
yeah if we had if we had some really good meme makers on our side well we do they just
don't think about things like that
But somebody would maybe make a meme of him holding his fist in the air.
He's so proud of that image.
And his, you know, where the blood capsule was crushed against his ear and it looks like he's bleeding.
Somebody would put that photograph up and just caption it with the Bible verse that says,
And the beast shall receive a grievous wound to the head and be miraculously cured.
Because that's who we're talking about.
about the beast but it shouldn't matter who it's meant to provoke i mean i guess you would say
uh liberals to a degree you know because they they think he has a messianic complex if you will
and so well i mean it way he's he's showing us that he does david brodie he's just stoking them
and he's you know he's you know he's playing around with their emotions and all this i mean i and
these geniuses don't notice that the guy he's raising from the dead is geoffrey epstein or look
is an awful lot like him.
Which brings me back to something that I've said in the past,
I wonder if there's somebody in his orbit
who is quietly punking him.
Because, you know, the idea that he's bringing back to life,
Jeffrey Epstein plays into the whole Epstein
isn't really dead thing.
Yeah?
I get the point of what Trump does,
and I like a lot of when he does that,
but not in this case.
Yeah, oh, you like a lot of when he does that, David,
Brody, like when he did the AI video of him bombing American citizens with fecal matter?
Did you just yuck it up at that, David Brody?
Did you?
Ha, ha, I don't care who you are.
That's funny.
Right, and it would have been nice for some advisors, even though they may have, for some advisors to have come and said,
Mr. President, I don't think that's quite appropriate.
You may want to hold back on this one.
But it's out there now.
Yeah, here's the thing.
There's no, at 10 p.m.
when he's sundown and hard, you can't argue with him.
Because nothing gets through.
It's all stream of semi-consciousness.
Next thing, you know, you try to...
Sir, they come to him and they say,
Sir, do you really have to do that?
Do you really have to post yourself as Jesus?
And I said back to the...
Listen, if we adopt the metric system,
we'll have to change the calendar.
I mean, that's where we are.
And that's the actual story from my past when my beloved grandmother began sliding into dementia.
She swore up and down that if America adopted the metric system, we'd have to change how we tell time.
And we would have to change the calendar, and nobody would know what time it was or what day it was anymore.
dementia is a heartbreaking thing
you know if the person
enduring it
dying from it
is someone who once
had a brilliant
mind
as my grandmother did
had been a seeker
both of the will of Jesus Christ
and knowledge itself as she was
when
when somebody as wicked
as Donald Trump
descends into the
hell of dementia. Oh, it's
infinitely, infinitely worse.
And it's not just
toilet paper USA, and it's not just
American mourning.
Well, marginal trailer
queen was out there running to
X and posting an excrement
shrieking,
it's more than blasphemy.
It's an anti-Christ spirit.
Another woman,
Mandy Arthur,
who talks about Christianity and its intersection with politics.
She said, God, we might have made a mistake and accidentally elected the Antichrist, sent help.
Oh, you made a mistake, Mandy.
But you knew you were making a mistake, didn't you, hon?
Sure.
I mean, and, you know, when you've lost Riley Gaines, Riley Gaines,
the fifth place loser.
Why?
Sersely, I cannot understand why he posts this.
Is he looking for a response?
Does it actually think this?
Either way, two things are true.
A little humility would serve him well.
God shall not be mocked.
Well, it's too late, Riley, honey.
I mean, you were like the fifth person to say that, sweetie.
So he's mocked God.
He's not going to ask for forgiveness.
So, you know, I would say the lightning bolt range around him.
I'm worried about that.
I'm worried about that.
I was worried about that door dash driver earlier.
It seemed like she really wanted to get away.
Another one.
Mr. President, with all due respect, take this down.
Well, Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.
You are not, Jesus.
You're orange.
My Jesus was white.
Okay, they didn't say this.
Even if this wasn't the intention, this is not a good look.
I do not support this, and I know many others do not neither.
Remove it at once.
You've probably already done too much damage with this mean.
Give all honor, glory, and praise to Jebus, but certainly not this.
If it's a staff or fireman, offer an apology to Christians for this mockery.
and then there was
poor, poor
Megan Basham
who works over at the Daily Wire
and she was confused, y'all,
she was confused.
I don't know if the president thought he was being funny
or if he's under the influence of some substance.
Honey,
he's been under the influence of a substance.
for most of his adult life.
Or what possible explanation
he could have for this outrageous
blasphemy.
But he needs to take us down immediately
and ask for forgiveness from the American people
and then from God.
You poor dumb woman.
He doesn't ask forgiveness for anyone.
He didn't ask forgiveness from the 13-year-old
little girl. He raped.
Oh, and by the way, yesterday was Orthodox Easter.
So we've got two shitty posts
on two succeeding easters.
And there are like soldiers in the background,
and I guess are they coming down or going up?
And one of the things that's flying
looks surprisingly like a
maybe a hammerhead shark.
I don't know.
The Lincoln Memorial's in there.
Lady Liberty is there.
The Capitol Dome, looking as if it's been bombed,
is in there.
I mean, this is some wild shit.
I love this.
we may have upped
we may have
we may elected
the antichrist
I know
I know
but by Sunday night
he was probably falling
apart because
the J.D. Egg
declared that
the ceasefire talks
had failed
after something like
24 hours
diplomacy is difficult
diplomacy takes time
diplomacy
requires patience and conversation, none of which, because the whole thing was a scam, a sham, to provide a reason.
Well, Iran's not doing what we told them, so we're going to go back and murder some more innocent Iranians.
Because we started this war.
Yeah, back to email for a moment.
From Bulmer Bob, day old bread.
My parents ran a thrift shop selling day-old Arnold bread.
It was an honorable undertaking and benefited a lot of people in the community.
I have no doubt.
I did not grow up wealthy, and many were the days that usually my father's day off
when we'd go to the day-old bread store and load up, take a bunch of it home,
stick it in the freezer, right alongside the ham that my mother would use
to make my dad's ham sandwiches to take to work with.
with him there on the furnace.
I'd usually, I think ours, ours
was hostess affiliated,
and I would come home with
one of those
fried cherry pies.
They were really good back then.
Arnold, though, oh, I loved Arnold,
Croger's carried a lot of it
for a while, Bob.
And when the kids
were young, every Christmas,
I'd get a couple of loaves.
They had a dill rye that I haven't seen in ages,
but I'd toast the dill rye and put thin slices of smoked salmon on it
with thinly sliced red onion and capers and sour cream.
And that along with the fried oysters is what my kids think of
when they think of Christmas morning breakfast.
Fond memories, thanks, Bob.
and from Daryl in Houston
God
G-A-W-D
When are we as a species going to get over the concept of God
The most dangerous and deadly concept
Ever conceived by the human mind
The idea of God serves absolutely no purpose
And is not necessary for anyone to conduct their lives
In a moral manner
The endless arguments over textual minutiae
And interpretations that mean absolutely nothing
Are the epitome of time wasting
Well, I mean
Classic example
how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
Although I confess,
Victoria turned me on to a show called The Good Place.
Never heard of it. I've never seen it.
And I have giggled and defaude my way all the way through that.
In many ways, it makes more sense than the vast majority of Christian theology.
And it turns out being a little lesson in the philosophy of ethics.
It's good. Thank you. I'm glad somebody got that. Bless your heart, Flavio, and in the good way, I might add.
The llama just facepalmed at your Gaza joke, incensitive eye roll. I love that. And by the way, that's stolen. I didn't do that. I saw that.
I saw that on a reel earlier this weekend, and the llama and I giggled merrily at it.
I just kind of snuck right by, didn't it?
and from Tamara
Tamara says
I remember the hostess
Associated Day Old Bread store
It was a fun outing for us kids
Yeah
It was
And there were different kinds of bread there
Okay
Story time
I absolutely
You know like your wonder bread
Your sunbeam
Your colonial
That sort of thing
You know just white bread
In a bag
My mother could not get me to eat it
For Lovener money
I would not eat a sandwich.
Yeah, it was a texture thing because I didn't like the smell.
And it just turned into glop when you started chewing it.
I was probably six years old before one of my sisters convinced me to just,
oh, Robin, just take one bite of a McDonald's cheeseburger.
And I finally didn't.
That was good.
I still don't eat bag loaf bread to this day
just to take it out of the bag and put meat on it and mustard or may...
No, absolutely not.
Now, make a grilled cheese out of it?
I'm right there.
Toast it, I'm good.
But right out of the bag...
Sorry, let's not do that on the air.
Here we are.
Jeremy adds,
But Robin, was your grandma as smart as Trump's uncle who taught at MIT?
He taught the Unabomber after all.
Someday those things will fade, and they will no longer be a plague to our memory.
Oh, it makes sense.
I don't think that, I don't think that, I think that got snopes into oblivion, if I recall correctly.
By the way, my hatred for loafbread did not extend to fresh baked biscuits.
Responding to Darrell Micah says, it does serve a purpose.
religion control.
God, after all, is always watching.
I saw a reel over the weekend, old clip
of none other than Carl Sagan
just absolutely destroying
that charlatan
Dennis Prager. It started out
with Prager asking Sagan,
Are you an atheist?
And Sagan, not taking a bait, said, well, let's start by talking about what you mean by God.
And that was about as good as it got for Dennis Prager.
And ultimately, Sagan pulled out that now classic photo taken by Voyager as it was exiting the solar system
and turned around and took one last look at home and said,
we are a tiny little pale blue dot
in the end of a spiral arm
of a nondescript galaxy
one of billions in the universe
and you think
there's a god out there who's
and that we're the center
of his attentions
I think he said something like that is the height
of egotism
It was a heck of a clip.
From Billable, Rick, Trump as Jesus,
Billable says the patient who Trump is healing looks a lot like John Stewart.
Well, John Stewart has been savaging him too,
but the first thing I thought when I looked at the dead guy was,
that's Jeffrey Epstein.
Yeah, the MIT Unabomber was sarcasm.
Thanks, Jeremy.
But it was a weird weekend for, uh,
Mittwit Nero, because I guess now he's gone to war with Pope Frank.
I saw an old photo, not Pope Frank, Pope Leo, before you correct me.
I saw an old picture of Pope Leo from back in his Chicago days.
He was apparently going to a costume party.
And he was going to that costume party dressed up as a blues brother, which is Peak Chicago.
I hate Illinois Nazis, but Pope Leo has been unequivocal in his criticism of Nitwit Niro without ever saying his name,
and then Nittwit Niro loses his shit and knows that Nittwit Niro knew that he was who Pope Leo was talking about, thereby forming a sort of a confession.
So this happened last night at 603 p.m. That's four hours before he would post.
the image of himself as Jesus.
Pope Leo is weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy.
He talks about fear of the Trump administration,
but doesn't mention the fear that the Catholic Church
and all other Christian organizations had during COVID
when they were arresting priests, ministers,
and everybody else for holding church services,
even when going outside and being 10 and even 20 feet apart.
I like his brother Louis much better than I like him, because Louis is all MAGA.
Huh?
He gets it, and Leo doesn't.
I don't want a Pope.
You're not Catholic, you dumbass!
Who thinks it's terrible that America attacked Venezuela,
a country that was sending massive amounts of drugs into the United States.
No, it wasn't.
And even worse, emptying their prisons, this is the asylum, stupidity.
Including murderers, drug-drugs.
dealers and killers into our country, and I don't want to Pope.
You're not Catholic, again.
And you don't get to choose the Pope the College of Cardinals does.
God damn, he's dumb.
Who criticizes the President of the United States because I'm doing exactly what I was elected
in a landslide to do so, setting record low numbers in crime
and creating the greatest stock market in history?
I mean, this is all proof-positive.
that the man has no idea whatsoever
what Yeshua
the brown skin Palestinian day laborer and
semi-literate itinerant rabbi taught
at all
Leo should be thankful
because as everyone knows
he was a shocking surprise
he wasn't on any list to be Pope
he was a cardinal dumbass
that puts you on the list
I mean I'm still a recovering
Southern Baptist
but I know how that process
works
and was only put there by the church because he was an American,
and they thought that would be the best way to deal with President Donald J. Trump.
If I wasn't in the White House, Leo wouldn't be in the Vatican.
Unfortunately, Leo's weak on crime, weak on nuclear weapons does not sit well with me.
Door does the fact that he meets with Obama sympathizers like David Axelrod,
a loser from the left, who is one of those who wanted churchgoers and clerics to be arrested,
Leo should get his act together as Pope, use common sense, stop catering to the radical left,
and focus on being a great Pope, not a politician.
It's hurting him very badly, and more importantly, it's hurting the Catholic Church, President Donald J. Trump.
If anyone, and I do mean anyone, blathered like that at the age of 79,
you'd have him to a geriatric neurologist the next goddamn morning, but not him.
also over the weekend
on the heels
I think of
oh the crowds
the crowds that assembled in Budapest
when it became obvious
that
Weakedor
Orban and his Fidesch party
were going down the toilet
I mean it was
oh it was bad
it was a stomping
well
George Conway
posted a
a meme
and once again
it was
AI generated
or maybe it was a photo
from Budapresh. No it was Budapest
saying
this is what Times Square will look like when Congress
or a cheeseburger finally does its job
throngs of people in the streets
and thereupon there was a discussion
about how pathetic
it is that we have to
that we think that a cheeseburger
has a better chance
of working than the Congress itself or his
his Lickspittle cabinet
because it's true
and Flavio says what an absolute POS
he was catching about Pope Leo again this morning
he said he liked his maggot brother better and mentioned him by name
what an absolute POS it almost goes without saying
at this point yeah he's a POS
well says
Kim in New York
Swalwell is resigning
What a tremendous disappointment he is
First I was sure he was being rat fuck
But it looks like not
Yeah he's
But it's worth bearing in mind
That the maggots all of a sudden have decided that
He should
Be executed
No not kidding
Maggots calling for the execution of Eric Swalwell
It missed that whole Epstein files thing, I guess.
Yeah, from a post over on what used to be Twitter.
Swalwell said, I am deeply sorry to my family, staff, and constituents for mistakes in judgment I've made in my past.
I will fight the serious false allegation made against me.
However, I must take responsibility and ownership for the mistakes I did make.
I'm aware of efforts to bring an immediate expulsion vote against me and other members,
expelling anyone in Congress without due process within days of an allegation.
allegation being made is wrong, but it's also wrong for my constituents to have me distracted from my duties.
Therefore, I plan to resign my seat in Congress. I will work with my staff in the coming days to ensure they're able in my absence to serve the needs of the good people of the 14th Congressional District of California.
One of the people who started barking and grunting for the expulsion of Eric Swalwell was, of course, Anapava Laguna, Maggot Supreme, who never really noticed the fact that
Her orange Jesus stands found liable for being a sexual predator of E. Jean Carroll,
and that that judgment was upheld in the trial court, upheld in the appellate court,
the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, and is now awaiting judgment in the Supreme Court of the United States.
What a pity that's not a slam dunk.
But then again, you kind of wonder how those most puissant dread sovereign Supreme Catholic
majesties feel about Niro's blasphemy.
After all, you got Fappy Thomas still sitting up there, a member of Opus Dei, for all we know,
wearing a hair shirt under his robes or wrapping his thigh in barbed wire.
Oh, that would make you, that would make you bitchy.
It really, really would.
So, Squalwell is leaving.
Anna Pavlovakuna decided, wanted, wanted, wanted to balance the equation, however,
so she wanted, what is it, Tony Gonzalez, to be expelled as well.
Meanwhile, the rumors have swirled for eons that she and none other than the big giant forehead
that's right Matt it just gates worse
we're banging boots and making the beast with two backs
but I guess you forgot that part too
yeah I thought about that but I don't know
Flavio asks Swalwell echoes
of Al Franken
but I think he did the right thing by resigning
I don't think they're the same because
Swalwell said something over the weekend about
I've made mistakes, and the only people who need to be a part of that conversation are me and my wife.
So he's definitely not confessing to the rape allegations from the woman who said that she was too drunk to provide consent, which can definitely be a thing.
Yeah.
Well, I don't think there's any real risk of that seat falling into the hands of the maggots.
But, hey, maybe the voters in the 14th Congressional District of California could do something really wild.
Maybe give the seat to a woman who doesn't, you know, go around fucking people at will and in violation of things like marriage vows.
from Theo incensitivity.
I've long kept stashes of frankincense gold,
a small amount of my herbal supplies.
Hey, I never know who's going to show up
or what their trad might be.
If we're meant to welcome the stranger,
having familiar items on hand can only help.
Yeah.
And, well, you take the frankincense,
the mur, maybe add in a little pechule
and you're ready for Coachella.
And from Bulmer Bob, straight choke.
Oh, this is going to be good.
Tell me if I have this right.
Iran blockades the straight of Hormuz,
so how does Trump respond?
He blockades the straight right along with them.
From blazing saddles, Bart, low voice.
Hold it.
The next man makes a word, makes a move,
the inward gets it.
Dr. Sam Johnson.
Listen to him, men.
He's just crazy enough to do it.
Bart, high-pitched voice.
Oh, Lordy, Lord, he's desperate.
do what he say, do what he say.
Yeah, I'm going to, okay, we're closing the Straits of Hormuz.
Okay, we told you to open it, so we're going to close it harder.
Yeah, it sounds really dumb because it is, but here's the thing.
If you're going to keep vessels from transiting the Straits of Formuz, right now,
Russian oil tankers and Chinese oil tankers, well, Iran's been letting them go through
because, well, they're friendly with Russia and Jain.
Now imagine, because this is some complicated stuff.
Imagine a U.S. warship telling a Chinese oil tanker
to stop and prepare to be boarded.
A Chinese freighter under a Chinese flag.
That's going to feel a lot like piracy on the high seas or even the low seas.
or perhaps even Middle
Sea.
Music joked.
Because the boarding
plan that's been in the works
involves
helicopters,
seal teams,
contested boardings,
gunplay,
and literally the United States
taking control of
the tanker in question,
whatever it be,
and
putting a new
captain in place to sail it somewhere.
See, we really didn't dodge a bullet Wednesday when he was threatening to nuke Iran.
And no, that wasn't a levity-dimensional chess.
Not at all.
He'll do it, he'll do it.
Methodists, Bob.
But Daddy's going to allow the United States Navy to attack and board a Chinese
flag vessel or what's more
a Russian flag
vessel? Yeah
of course the real goal is
to attack and board an
Iranian flag vessel
and because among all the other
things he is, Nitwit Niro is a thief
will steal
that oil no matter where
it was bound. This is getting
dumber by the moment and by the way
I was reading
I was reading some
thoughts by an economist, Robert A. Pape, who, not an economist, but a professor of political
science at the University of Chicago, his specialty is security affairs. And he said, and as I read it,
I was like, oh, this guy's making sense. Everyone's still talking about oil prices. That's already
outdated. This is no longer a price shock. It's the early stage of a system-wide supply shock.
Here's the mechanism. Price spike, physical shortage, economic contraction.
One follows on the other.
We're now crossing into step two from price spike to physical shortage.
That's when things break, he said.
20% of global oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz.
We've been hearing that for a couple of weeks, weeks and weeks now.
That flow is now constrained by Iran and U.S.
And it's not just oil.
It's the base layer of modern production.
Fuel, fertilizer, plastics, much more.
Once inventories run down, this stops being about expensive inputs.
It becomes about missing inputs.
Factories don't slow because costs rise.
They stop because materials don't arrive.
We've seen the smaller version of this, 1973.
Around a 7% supply disruption, followed by shortages, rationing, industrial decline in under 90 days.
Today's shock is larger.
The system is tighter.
We are at day 45.
The sequence from here is predictable.
Asia first, followed by Europe next, followed by global compression, not collapse, contraction.
the U.S. won't be spared.
Energy independence doesn't protect a globally integrated economy.
When supply chains sees, the shock transmits via trade reductions.
This is the real shift.
Prices no longer determine outcomes.
Access does.
And once that flips, governments start choosing winners and losers.
Oh, I'm so old I can remember when the...
At that point in time, teabaggers were barking and grunting and hooting about,
Obama's choosing winners and losers!
Scylindra, it was Scylindra, wasn't it?
Professor Pape says, watch one thing this week.
Ships through Hormuz.
Not statements, not markets.
If flows don't recover, the system tightens further, necessarily.
By the time shortages show up in headlines,
it's already too late.
That's how these shocks work.
Full breakdown.
Mechanism.
Timeline.
What happens next?
New analysis.
Escalation trap.
Well, that certainly is not encouraging.
Pretty sound analysis.
No.
Lee says how I explained blocking the straight,
nitwit style.
The door was up.
open, you closed it and put a lock on the door.
The door was open, you closed it and put a lock
on the door. Well, I will put another lock
on the door. That'll get the door open.
Aye, aye, aye, aye.
It's a breathtaking level of stupid.
It genuinely is.
And then, yes, DoorDash.
The password was resourced, so I thought
that was worth
discussing.
And just a reminder, resource wars are predicted in terms.
Anybody here remember peak oil?
Remember how we were talking about this?
23 years ago and more?
Yeah, here we are.
This is a predictable result of that effect.
That neck of the woods has been prone to resource wars.
And no, this is not.
not the old Vietnam argument.
Well, those people have been at war for a thousand years.
For starters, this is more like 3,500 years.
A lot of the history of that part of Asia is a history of resource wars.
Hell.
The Trojan War may have been a resource war.
And yes, I confess, I'm looking forward to July 17th,
because that's when the new movie version of The Odyssey comes out.
I'm just terribly curious to see if it'll be even remotely according to the book.
Yeah.
Now, back to DoorDash.
This was such a pathetic con today.
The woman's name is Sharon Simmons.
She's a grandma.
And they used her for a stage prop.
for a McDonald's DoorDash.
I mean, this is,
this is just so dumb.
He was yapping out,
outside,
when a lady with a t-shirt,
a red t-shirt, white letters,
Door-Dash Grandma.
And look,
far be it from me
to critique
nitwit Niro's taste in
hamburgers,
at this point in time,
I don't think he's eating nearly
enough of them? Oh no. So Sharon Simmons was picked by the maggots to bring daddy his hamburger.
Here we are. We should call it the great big beautiful bill because it's a tremendous amount of money.
And that's overtime. That's also on Social Security, as you know. Yes. And it's pretty amazing.
Yes, it is.
Well, you're really nice.
Would you like to do a little news conference with me with these people?
These are not the nicest people.
They're not nice like you.
You know that, right?
I'll do whatever you ask me to do, sir.
So there are no tax on tips of something special, right?
It's very special.
And that's one that really pertains to you more than anything else.
Yes, sir.
Fantastic.
And so it's such an honor to meet you.
And I think you voted for me?
Do you think?
Ah, maybe.
Yeah.
I heard you have a great supporter.
We appreciate it.
Thank you.
I'll put this over here, and why don't we have a news conference with us?
I want to do it?
Sure.
You don't have to space.
Thank you much.
I think they're looking about hormones, straight, and various other things.
Do you have any questions?
Mr. President.
Yeah, and then they brought her on Fox News, TV, Radio, Rwanda, where the truth sort of came out.
I say sort of.
she did as much to hurt him as to help him.
Again, this timeline is just a mess.
So how much does this no tax on tips mean to you?
I don't know what the structure of payment is there at DoorDash,
how much you get in salary per delivery,
then how much of your income is tips?
Can you kind of break it down to us and tell us
what this no tax on tips really means for you?
Well, what this really means for me is, you know, as they said, last year my husband, he was diagnosed with stage three cancer.
And during that time, you know, I was able to take some time and taking to his appointments and, you know, be there with him.
But, you know, as you know, going through treatment, even with insurance, you kind of break the bank.
and, you know, we pretty much went through our savings.
And so when I found out about the no tax on tips,
I was like, this is incredible because this, you know,
it's not going to replace my life savings,
but it's going to help certainly with future doctor's appointments
and future things that, you know, we have going on.
Sure.
How much would...
Oh, go ahead.
It just, it means a lot.
How much would...
So how much does this...
But the part in there that's telling is the...
I began door-dashing because my husband has stage 3 cancer and can't pay for his care.
I honestly wonder if they're playing this clip in Canada or Australia, Japan, Germany, France, Turf Island, the Nordic States,
Because see, in those civilized countries, you don't have to run through your savings to try to save your husband's life when he's diagnosed with cancer.
But in America you do, because we're the greatest country in the history of the world on earth now today, forever in the universe under God, amen?
And yes, Kim, in New York, Kim says, I'm going to puke.
using a grandma as a prop is damn disgusting.
But not only that, anybody asks why a grandma has to doordash to survive,
it's pretty damning that someone has to do that in this country.
Oh, and by the way, she doesn't come from a state
with anything resembling humane health care policy.
Oh, no, Kim.
Grandma came all the way from Arkansas for this publicity stunt.
And, of course, in Arkansas,
Well, they got good Christian family values there because, well, because Sarah Hustle Buck Sandbags, Governor Jethrine Bowdeen there has, well, it's one of the maggotiest states in the Union.
And health care, not so much.
Did Arkansas, I think they, didn't they adopt like a hybridized version of the Medicaid expansion?
When I first saw this clip earlier today, I thought about Kevin and what he shared with us this past Friday.
And he said, you know, you're immediately deemed disabled and you immediately go on Medicare.
What makes me think that doesn't happen in Arkansas?
I mean, when you hear the word cancer, at least I, start wondering what sort of, of, of, of,
horrid can
what kind of industrial
poisons
did
Mr. and Mrs. Simmons
do Mr. and Mrs. Simmons live near?
What kind of industrial
poison
did Mr. Simmons have to work around
and in
8, 10, 12, I don't know,
hours a day
for decades?
Because it seems like
that's always the case.
You think of places like Cancer Alley
down in the region between New Orleans and Baton Rouge.
Literally what they call it Cancer Alley.
Or the cancer rates in the Cana Valley back when we had lots and lots of chemical concerns
going hammer and tongs.
Or on a personal level, the number of people,
I've known and loved down the mountaintop removal sacrifice zone who are no longer with us.
My mentor and dear friend Judy Bonds did not make it out of her 50s.
She told a story about the horror that struck her one day and it was part of her becoming an activist
when she saw her little grandson, a dear friend of mine's child, playing in the creek,
we hillbillies are right fond of splashing around in the creek.
Ain't a lot of swimming pools, but they are swimming holes.
He was splashing around in the creek, and Judy saw a dead fish, or several,
floating around in his vicinity, and she yelled for him,
probably screamed for him to get the hell out of that water.
because it was poison. And somewhere back in 2014, Freedom Industries, which was run by a convicted
Coke dealer, no shit, let 40 or 50,000 gallons of a chemical used to clean coal loose into the
Elk River, the public water drink, just miles upstream, little ways upstream, not even miles,
from the intake for the public water system for nine counties and 300,000 people.
300,000 people.
And those 300,000 people are now involuntary participants in a not very well-structured epidemiological study
and to the effects of MCHM, methylchlorohexane methanol,
on the human body because there were no
testings about that.
There was no data about that.
And it's all over the country.
I go to visit
Victoria in Parkersburg
where
most people will not drink the tap water.
Because
the fine folks at DuPont,
better living through chemistry,
have poisoned
the groundwater, kind of
forever. That's why
the stuff that's poisoned the groundwater
is called forever chemicals.
I saw a clip of Neil de Grosse Tyson talking about how over the course of 30,000 years,
the human lifespan went from 30 to 35, and that it only expanded through science,
that no amount of religion had made it better, but that science had.
But it's also a reminder that science is,
a double-edged sword. It can expand life, extend life, and it can end life. So I do, upon my soul,
I do wonder about Mr. and Mrs. Simmons's life there in Arkansas. It's a beautiful place.
Parts of Arkansas are absolutely breathtaking. Ms. Haley could certainly tell us about that.
But in many senses, cancer is not a natural evolutionary process. It's cell-we.
gone wild. There was a book years ago called, I think, Living Downstream,
one woman's account of her battle with bladder cancer.
Because she had lived downstream, I think we even had her on,
she had lived downstream from a dry cleaning plant.
And in the course of her reporting in her book,
well, it turns out that bladder cancer is almost always.
caused by environmental exposure.
And like where I live, you know, here where the magnificent
Kincaid Mansion and the fabulous Horn Studios therein are,
the prevailing winds blow from those cancer plants down in the Canal Valley
right up the New River Gorge, and you never even know you're being poisoned.
and your body has no way to stop it.
And so Mrs. Simmons is terribly, terribly grateful.
The DoorDash Grandma.
Terribly, terribly grateful that there's no tax on her tips.
I'm sure she is.
Jeremy says, I'll bet this is edited and cut the fuck out of.
She mentioned that their health insurance went up or doubled this year,
and that's why she's door-dashing on the side.
I don't even know, I don't even necessarily know, Jeremy, that they have health insurance.
insurance. Blavio says, I don't use DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, or any of those services. I haven't used Amazon since 2007. And a blue sky skeet from someone named Sean Thompson. I love being a DoorDash grandma. I love Donald Trump. I bring in McDonald's. I use my own car. I never want to retire. I'm glad Donald Trump is making sure Grandma's like me will have to DoorDash forever. I'm DoorDash Grandma. I don't think she said exactly that.
Bless her heart.
Bless her heart.
And I'm proud to live in America
where I can door dash for tips
when my husband gets sick
and stage three cancer.
No singing, Roxanne.
We are $1,719.
$63 in the hole.
And we're not even to the halfway point.
We will be in a couple of days of April.
Can we take that down some?
pretty please
a PayPal button
you can mash the daylights out of it over at head-on.

Randy Radar
notes they say that fully one-third of all cancers are
environmentally caused
and I think that's a conservative estimate
I do
so the question arises what else do we have
on this Moran Monday
oh wow
there's plenty
we talked about how the Pope has
become a
thorn in the
side of nitwit Nero.
And this
feud started
percolating last week.
Jimmy Dick Vance or
the JD Egg or
whatever
personally
begged
Pope Leo to
come to Merca
the greatest country in the history
of the world on earth now today forever in the universe
under God, amen
for the 250th anniversary
celebration, which
won't take place until
you know, 2037,
but they're celebrating it this year
because, well, Daddy
won't be around by then.
And
he, of course, said not just
no, but
oh hell no.
And that was the beginning.
And then the White House
began threatening him.
And he remained steadfast.
He will instead
I'd spend July the 4th communing with immigrants on what, an Italian island where people trying to cross the Mediterranean often wash ashore.
Well, there was a conversation aboard Pope Force One.
I don't know what they call the papal airplane.
where Pope Leo said,
I'm not afraid of him.
Kind of hard to hear, but he said,
I don't have any fear of him.
And I don't think,
I don't think he's the
back down,
he's a back down kind of guy
because, well, he is,
at least according to Roman Catholics,
the vicar of Christ.
That conveys a bit of,
at least theoretical moral authority.
And over in Budapest,
Well, when it became clear that their fascist overlord had been deposed,
that massive crowd burst out singing,
We are the champions.
Yeah.
Our buddy Texas T. he said,
Orban be orphan.
Oh, and, oh, from Brother Deacon Asa,
no tax on tips.
Newsflash, those ghoulish platforms are squeezing the restaurants to death
and have jacked up the prices so much that hardly anybody's paying gratuities anymore.
Uber charges me $90 for a trip to my nearest international airport
while paying the driver $26.
It's that bad.
Complete and utter serfdom.
Yeah, Uber, Lyft, Uber Eats, DoorDash,
nobody's really out there making any money in the gig economy and speaking of people that haven't heard from them well
you know it was way way back when this was all just getting started when our dear friend sandra and i would talk about the gig economy
and the gig economy is well a scam it's a way to avoid paying people for their
labor. Leo versus Trump from Leah in New York. The Vatican has the Holy See. We're stuck with the holy me.
Oh, that's quality. The island of Lampedusa, where Pope Leo will spend the 4th of July. Flavio says,
they have migrant detention centers there. And Georgia Maloney has an agreement with Albania to ship them to camps there. It's awful.
Well, fascist going to fascist.
And I did have a notification earlier today.
I got a spam from the White House is what it boils down to.
Now, to compare this with what we got last week before her panicked little speech on, what was it, Thursday?
Yeah, the spam I got last week from Melanoma's office, merely listed.
the date and the time of her remarks and said nothing about the content.
Compare that with today.
Media advisory, First Lady Melanoma Trump
partners with Congress to advance landmark legislation
protecting America's foster care children.
Well, this too is damage control.
Because Melanoma's hubby just a couple of weeks ago said,
We don't have money for child care or Medicare or Medicaid or those scams
Well now we are expected to believe and I quote
First Lady Melanoma Trump and Congress are working to find solutions
To a myriad of challenges
People who don't know how to use myriad should not use myriad
It's not a myriad, it's just myriad
And it does not require a preposition afterward
A myriad of challenges that impact foster care individuals.
This particular individual
Straight out of idiocracy.
These issues include barriers to education and educational advocacy,
housing employment opportunities, financial independence and technology.
It's going to be a roundtable discussion in the House Ways and Means Committee
Brown on Capitol Hill.
It'll feature melanoma.
Congressman Jason Smith in Missouri,
who chairs House Ways and Means,
Congressman Richard Neal, Democrat of Massachusetts
First District.
Yeah, that's going to be great.
Distract, distract, distract, distract.
And now they're sending nitwit Niro
off to Vegas this Thursday.
President Donald Gates Trump's roundtable
and no tax on tips, Las Vegas, Nevada,
Thursday, April 16th, 4 p.m.
That ought to be a real blast.
And Flavio pointing out,
The gig economy, recall those companies,
DoorDash, Grub Hub, et al,
fought tooth and nail to avoid having their workers
in California classified as employees
and instead classify them as independent contractors.
I don't know how that worked out
in California. Anybody know?
I'm guessing it sucks
because, see,
that means that they're responding.
They actually, no tax on tips, so
what? They actually pay
more in taxes
as independent contractors
than they would
as employees.
And then
I'm just going to read
this because this goes
back to last week
and it puts
melanoma's panic and more perspective. It's from Rachel Hurley, who says,
I fell down the Paolo Zampoly rabbit hole, and guess what I found? Every layer, and by the way,
Joy in Ann Arbor put me onto this. Every layer of this guy's biography connects to something worse.
So let me back up and lay out the full picture of the man at the center at all, because once you see
the whole timeline, melanomas panic Thursday afternoon denial starts looking less like damage control
and more like a load-bearing wall about to give.
Zampoli grew up rich in Milan.
His father owned a toy company.
When Daddy died, Paolo was 18 and inherited the business.
He sold it to Silvio Berlusconi's group on the advice of John Casablancus.
He heard of that name, that name.
Well, he was the founder of elite model management.
Well, now, Casa Blancas.
Blancas himself had a documented history of sexual relationships with underage girls,
including a public relationship with the 16-year-old Stephanie Seymour when he was 42.
He was the subject of a 60 Minutes investigation in the 1980s.
This is the man who told Zampoli to get into modeling.
So, Zampoli started ID models in New York in the mid-1990s.
one of the first things he did was scout a Slovenian model named Melania Canouse
and bring her to the U.S. on an H-1B visa in 1996.
He moved her into his building at Zekindorf Towers.
Then in September 1998 he threw a party at the Kit-Kat Club
and introduced her to Donald Trump.
Well, Trump was on a date that night with a Norwegian heiress named Selena Middelfart.
Yes, yes, yes, that's her real name.
Middlefart appears in Epstein's flight logs 13 times.
During a Maxwell trial in 2021, testimony established that Epstein dated Middlefart in the mid-1990s
and sent her flowers from his office.
And in the Epstein files released this year, there's an email Epstein sent,
to Michael Wolfe in December 2015, where he described Middlefart as my 20-year-old girlfriend in 1993,
and said that after two years, oh, Jesus, after two years, I gave her to Donald.
Gave her to Donald, his words.
So the night Trump met Melania, he was on a date with a woman Epstein claims to have given him.
at a party thrown by a modeling agent who was business partners with Epstein
in a room full of models from that agent's agency
and the woman Trump left with that night had been brought to America by that same agent
two years earlier
well Zam Polly didn't stay in the modeling business after ID models he joined the
Trump organization as director of international development
Then he started his own real estate company, Paramount Group, which used models from his former agency as brokers to sell Manhattan apartments.
Then he got a U.N. ambassadorship to Dominica in 2013, a U.N. ambassadorship.
His partner, Amanda Ungaro, got one to Grenada in 2014.
And here's the deal, the detail that Rachel Hurley says, I genuinely had to read twice.
Zampoly worked alongside Gisland Maxwell on UN Ocean initiatives and was part of the team that developed Sustainable Development Goal 14.
I will add editorially, this did not surprise me.
Those are environmental efforts.
Well, once upon a time, another sleaze bag, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
build himself as an environmentalist
and an environmental warrior
against culture change,
climate change, rather,
and water pollution and air pollution
and the nightmare scourge upon Appalachia
of mountaintop removal.
He founded an organization called
Waterkeepers or Riverkeepers.
The origin of his founding Riverkeepers
was part of his community service after his heroin bust.
And then, of course, he tried to seduce his way through the mountaintop removal movement
when he was here and working on that, apparently with some degree of success.
So that's not unusual.
Predators will prey anywhere.
And, for instance, the environmental movement provides a certain amount of cachet insofar
as it indicates that, you know, you're interested in the greater good.
Anyway, Rachel Hurley says he also connected to Maxwell's Tara Marr project,
the environmental nonprofit that gave out almost no money in Grants
and was shut down five days after Epstein was arrested in 2019.
The guy who introduced melanoma to Trump was in a professional relationship with the woman
who procured teenage girls for Jeffrey Epstein,
while simultaneously holding a diplomatic post and attending white.
House Christmas parties.
She says, okay, are you catching on to what this man must know about?
Trump appointed Zampoli to the Kennedy Center Board in 2020.
In the second term, he made him special envoy for global partnerships, a State Department
gig with ambassador-level clearance.
This is a man who appears dozens of times in the Epstein files, whose modeling agency
was patronized by Epstein, who tried to buy elite models with Epstein in 2004,
who in one Epstein email is warned about as trouble,
and who contacted ICE last year to get the mother of his child, Amanda Ungaro,
deported during a custody battle,
a woman who happened to have flown on the Lolita Express as a teenager.
Rachel Hurley says,
Now, as I mentioned in my last essay about all this,
the Epstein files also contain a redacted FBI proper from 2019,
where an immunity witness told federal agents that, quote,
Epstein introduced Melania Trump to Donald Trump
and that, quote, Zampoli was trying to buy elite models with Epstein.
Melania says Zampoli made the introduction, not Epstein.
Zampoli says the same thing, but neither of them has ever said it under oath.
No committee has subpoenaed him.
And after Melania's press conference Thursday,
Zampoli told the Daily Mail he's ready to testify,
which is a nice volunteer offer.
The Oversight Committee should haul him in
asking about everything except Melania
just for funsies.
Meanwhile, Amanda Ungaro is in Brazil posting directly at Melania,
saying she has 20 years of receipts and nothing left to lose.
And Melania is at the White House podium,
denying she ever knew Epstein while calling the email she initiated to Gis Lane Maxwell,
a reply.
She sent the email.
She was not replying to shit.
The Holzan Pau timeline is sitting right there for anyone who wants to look.
The modeling pipeline, the Epstein Business Partnership, the Maxwell Connection, the Trump Organization,
the diplomatic posts, the deportation.
It's all one guy connecting all the same people for 30 years.
And he's currently drawing a government paycheck.
And that, she says, my friends, is why melanoma looks.
so damned nervous.
But no worries, because according to the Wall Street Journal this past Friday,
that nitwit Nero is running around offering blanket pardons.
Lately he's been saying,
I'll pardon everyone who's come within 200 feet of the Oval.
The Wall Street Journal added,
The President has repeatedly raised the specter of pardons
with White House aides and other administration officials,
particularly when staff have suggested they could face,
prosecution or congressional investigations over decisions.
People familiar with the comments said, Trump is known to joke about matters.
It's the Wall Street Journal, after all.
Joke about matters that he later seriously pursues,
and the frequent references have led some aides to believe he is serious about the pardons, too.
It seems like he previewed many times his intent to use the pardon power to bail out those who carry out his agenda faithfully,
according to Liz Oyer, a former DOJ pardon attorney, fired by Trump.
when confronted with it
a White House spokescriep
well
the White House spokes creep
Caroline Real Pooh
Pooh leave it alone
said
The Wall Street Journal should learn to take a joke
However the President's pardon power is absolute
He's already
In just a little over a year
Issued 1600 pardons
Of course we know that
Let's see
What's on people's mind?
Kim in New York says
Met at the Kit Kat Club in 1993
Wasn't the orange bastard married to Marla Maples at that time?
Yes! Yes! Nice catch, Kim! He was.
He cheated on his first wife with his second.
He cheated on his second wife with God alone knows who
until he landed on melanoma.
And then he cheated on her, with, among others, Stormy Daniels,
while she was still recovering from birthing a little boron.
and from Tamara.
John Casablancus at Al.
Casablanca's is who Trump tried but failed to be.
San Diego was rife with that kind of scum in the 80s.
I didn't know Stephanie Seymour personally,
but one of my first boyfriends,
a dumb shit Coke dealer,
my brother nicknamed Bob Bichin,
claimed to have dated her,
which means nothing because all the dumb shit bullshitters claim to have dated her.
this all hits close to home and I do mean close to home.
Yeah.
Kind of makes your skin crawl, doesn't it?
I'll take a look at the source here after the program.
Thank you, Tamara. Thank you.
Meanwhile, in Brazil, Flavio says,
Ungaro, who threatened Melania Trump last week with legal action while vowing to tear down her corrupt system
has been vocal on X in a series of since-deleted posts that appeared
just hours before the First Lady disavowed all ties to Jeffrey Epstein or knowledge of his crimes.
Yeah, I suspect those are the ones I saw earlier, but they were, who we?
She's 41, Amanda Ungaro is.
So, let's see.
She was an infant.
In an interview late last month, Ungaro said,
My agent told me, we're going with a couple of friends, a private plane just for us.
There were around 30 very young women there, 14, 15, 16 years old.
I said, what's this?
And he said, don't worry.
She was 17 at the time.
And the tweets?
Well, I have nothing left to lose in my life, she said.
I will tear down the entire system.
Be careful with me, bitch.
And again, she spent a considerable amount of time in a Florida ice game.
ice goon shithole.
She said when she left the ice
shithole, she was infested with
lice. She saw an elderly
kidnapped victim
a handcuffed to a
wheelchair. God, this business
is filthy. But it's
not surprising he's been filthy
for his entire
misbegotten life.
Stephanie Seymour, Lee notes
she was in the Guns and Roses video for
November rain. Well, maybe I'll check
that video with the sound down.
I've never heard of this business,
but it's apparently big in California.
Roberto's Taco Shop.
Any of my California friends in the family community
congregation familiar with Roberto's?
Well, their CEO, Rinaldo Robledo turns out to be a big-time
maggot.
And apparently there's a
shitstorm striking Roberto's taco shop with an individual over at the ticot-to-to-to-de-machine
whose apparent mission in life is to expose maga business, Latino maga businesses.
Apparently, Roberto's invented the California burrito.
Okay.
Can somebody in the Horn ad hoc research community tell me,
what a California burrito is as compared to
some other burrito.
One individual said,
did this CEO forget all of his restaurants
are based on Mexican dishes?
Who wouldn't have made it here without the immigrants?
And now a group called
A Strong Nevada is trying to organize
a complete boycott of Rupertos.
It was 2020 when Robledo
met with his orange daddy
at a Latinos for Trump round-tale.
Oh, we love the work you're doing. We love what you've done for us.
And went on to say that it was their third time hanging out together.
Oh, it's a Nevada franchise. Okay. Thank you.
Thank you, Ralphs.
They're in full damage control mode now.
Saying, each of our 49 franchisees operate independently.
One person said we vote with our wallets. I won't be back.
Yeah, how do you get away from the CEO?
And now, not from Roberto's, mind you, but now I kind of want a burrito.
That goes to the larger issue of chain restaurants.
And this is just a day in the life for me.
There's a big difference between, and it's all West Virginia,
but when I'm in Parkersburg, there's all kinds of choices for food.
I prefer to cook at home, frankly.
I know Victoria
likes my cooking. But
every now and then, you know, we'll...
I mean, the best pizza I've ever had
outside of the Lower East Side of New York
is to be found in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
It's just called the Pizza Place.
If you put a
if you put a New York slice of cheese pizza
and a pizza place slice of cheese pizza in front
of me and blindfolded me and
did the
did the thing where you switched them and switched them
and then I tasted one and tasted the other
I couldn't tell the difference. I really couldn't.
And it's local.
Oh, wait, California burritos.
Good news for the fauxbertoes chains like
Rigobertoes and Philobertos, says Tamara.
The California burrito has everything inside, including french fries.
I doubt they invent it.
it, but they do take credit for it.
Oh, well, I know who started,
I know who started the trend of putting
French fries inside the
dish.
You go to Pittsburgh for that.
Permanati Brothers.
Now I want Permanati Brothers.
Yeah, they
hand cut and fry their own fries,
and your sandwich comes with the fries
between the bread.
And yes, I don't hesitate to eat that.
bread.
Doesn't matter if it's their fish sandwich, their corn beef, their pastrami, their roast
beef, doesn't matter.
French fries on that sandwich.
I would not be at all surprised to find out that that's the mother church of French
fries inside a sandwich or sandwich-like meal.
Okay.
Ralph's telling me the same thing.
Diego style specialty characterized by featuring French fries inside the tortilla rather than rice or beans.
Typically contains marinated carneasada steak, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream, typically
largely wrapped in a large flour tortilla originating in the 80s, a staple of California Mexican fast food.
Somebody went to Permanati brothers and said, hey, let's stick this in a burrito and call it California.
Betcha.
betcha
but chain culture
over across
you know I go across the
river and down to the settlements
for provisions because there's not much on this side of the river
and let's see
just rattling things off the top of my head
McDonald's Wendy's
KFC
Long John Silver's
Pizza Hut
burger thing, and that's most of the chains. Arby's, Arby's, there's Arby's. We've got a
Boob Evans. I can't remember the last time I was in there. And then not too long back, they built a
Starbucks smack dab in the middle of the Walmart parking lot. And we already had good locally
owned coffee shops. We needed that Starbucks like a fish needs a bicycle. But that's the
trend in this country, because it's so hard to run a restaurant.
restaurant and be original in one's cuisine, that chains are just easier.
So now, and I'd be curious, if anybody within the reach of my voice has experienced this
outfit, what a name, Huey Mago's chicken tender place.
And in Fayetteville, we're a getting one.
Oh, dairy queen, dairy queen, we've got a dairy queen.
We got local places that do really, really good wings.
Every restaurant has some chicken tenders on it, mostly for the youngans.
Best chicken tenders around here are dairy queen, because they serve them with homemade cream gravy, black pepper cream gravy.
Yum.
But nonetheless, somebody with more dollars than cents is going to bring us a Huey Magoos chicken.
tender place.
Because that's what Fayetteville
was crying out for. We don't have
an Italian restaurant.
We got one Chinese restaurant.
Okay Chinese. I love
those people. Sweet, sweet
family.
But we're going to get a chicken tender joint.
If you wanted to bring in a chicken tender place,
why not be a little creative
and bring in chicken salad chick?
I get
real worked up over chicken salad
check.
It's literally a chicken salad place.
But they got like six, seven, eight, nine different kinds of chicken salad.
They got good soups.
You can get a scoop or a sandwich or a roll-up or wrap, whatever.
But, no, I guess that's just, that's a chicken too far.
What we're experiencing in Fayetteville is, well, it's called the,
It's the pigeon forgification of Fayetteville.
And I guess we're going to get a Hampton Inn hotel, too,
to deal with some of the tourism traffic.
We need another hotel.
But I don't think any community can chain restaurant its way to prosperity
or chain anything its way toward prosperity.
What supports local economies are local business,
that keep the money in the community.
That Huey Magoos, that Starbucks,
all the McDonald's, all the money just,
one, nobody can make a,
nobody can earn a living wage at any of these places.
And the profits all go right out the building
and right to corporate.
The chip buddy,
I learned about chip buddies on the road, Tamara says,
with traveling vegetarians.
One cheeseburger with fries, no meat.
Well,
Huey Magoos
calls themselves
the filet mignon of chicken.
There's no such thing.
There's it.
But, God, there's a
proliferation of chicken tenders joints.
Oh, God, there's a
Huey Magoos in Morgantown
routes.
I mean, they could have caused a real
stir and brought an in and out burger.
Yeah.
Or a steak and shake.
But no.
Another chicken tender joint being serviced by, you know, U.S. foods or whatever.
I really am thinking hard about that burrito now.
You know, rumor has it that this is a conversation radio program.
I've been going on for two hours and 37 minutes, and we are a goose egg this evening,
and that's a bad, bad sign.
Mitwit Nero took a shot across the vow.
Oh, hush, Camel Cardinal.
Pizza place in Parkersburg.
You want good pizza in your neck of the wood?
You already have Gino's and multiple locations at that.
What are you snibbling about?
Well, you can't understand the snivel until you had a Gino's pizza.
I mean, it's vaguely edible for the first five minutes.
But the sauce, you know, I joke about eating something sweet and then having to snort a few rails of Matt Foreman.
Well, that sauce is...
Gino's pizza sauce is sweeter than Campbell's tomato soup.
Not crazy about the biscuits either, but that's a West Virginia heresy.
Best biscuit place I've ever experienced was down in Durham.
I guess they're all over in North Carolina.
Biscuitville.
Now, damn, that was a...
a good biscuit.
How did we get into food porn
on the Moran
Monday? Oh, oh, Roberto's
Yeah, okay.
The maggot.
No, the New York Times took a shot
across nitwit Nero's bow.
Fake news.
The editorial board there
actually almost
provided a
damning indictment
of his shitty maladministration.
They post.
posted it on Sunday, saying,
we count four main setbacks for America's national interests
that are the direct result of Mr. Trump's callousness.
Oh, Sylvie, thank you. You saved us from being a goose egg.
Sylvie, you shouldn't have said it. You've been laid off.
Thank you.
Yes, four main setbacks.
And then they listed them.
It's saying, among other things.
The world saw how a country that spends one hundredth of what the United States does on its military,
it can seek to outlast it in a conflict.
It is a reminder of the urgent need to reform America's military.
Is it, New York Times, is it really, is that the takeaway for y'all?
Bless your hearts.
they went on and said
perhaps the greatest
long-term damage to the United States
from the Iran War will be in its
relationships with allies around the world
on that too
and then they said the fourth significant damage
involves the moral
standing of the United States
I credit where it's new
they said out loud
that Whiskey Pete
Kegbreath the DUI Hireth the DUI
higher has said things that constitute war crimes like no quarter no mercy for our enemies
yeah America's military standing is the second major setback and by the way that that goes back
to the issue of this blockade of the blockade what happens when periodically Iran maybe
sends out some little pissant drones
and we use a few million dollars worth of
military hardware to bring it down
pretty sure Iran knows
how much ordinance these various
vessels can carry
what happens when they're down to little or nothing
and Iran shoots something
really serious
bloop bloop bloo
There goes another coalition destroyer.
Still trying to figure out who that coalition is.
But yeah, the fourth damage is America's moral standing.
Like we have any left.
But at least they said Whiskey Pete is committing war crimes.
But they went on to chide anyone who is not.
uh...
well it
americans must avoid rooting for national failure
who's doing that
uh...
is uh...
is the new york times creating americans that exist only
in the thin gray settlements between its collective ears and pass for its
collective brains
nobody would do that
the editorial board said
there are no other democracies with the economic
military strength to counter
China and Russia.
When America is weaker and poorer
as this war has made us,
authoritarianism benefits.
You think? God,
it's almost like it's a plan or something.
The best hope
we may now
the best hope
now may sound naive, but it
remains true. And then the fantasy
part kicked in.
Mr. Trump, should it long
last recognized the ineptitude of his impulsive go-at-alone approach, he should involve Congress
and seek help from America's allies to minimize the damage from his war. And we will add
additionally that little green frogies should grow wings so they shan't bump their little green
butts on the ground when they hop. Is there anything in this country that hasn't been utterly degraded?
billionaires have ruined
well
billionaires have ruined
journalism and ruined the media
billionaires have ruined
business after business after business
billionaires are
engaging in a total assault
against personal freedom
personal privacy and individual rights
it's almost like
it's almost like
they're out there only in it for the money
yeah Micah notes
if Dumya had a coalition of the
willing I called it a coalition of the billing
is this a coalition
of the made up
oh give me a minute we could workshop
that and make it something really funny
but Micah says
it's the eshittification
economy
oh okay
we've been eshittified
and Ralph's in the
waning moments of the program says,
I'll offer a $25 challenge for
Cory Booker and this comment.
So if someone
has $25, Ralphs will turn it into
50 so that
well, we are, well
that would keep us from crossing
the $2,000 mark tomorrow.
Bad news,
Trump nominated a proud white
supremacist to the State Department. Good news,
Cory Booker absolutely
eviscerated him in his hearing and as a result
he withdrew his nomination.
Booker speaking said,
It's white people against others, which sounds deeply racist to me.
Somehow you think our country's greatness depends upon its ethnic diversity,
as long as white people have more numbers than others.
Sounds like you have a racial hierarchy.
There's no way for me to read this any other way.
But he wasn't done.
You do not respect me.
You look upon me as the color as my color of my skin.
You say holidays like Juneteenth are racial hustles.
Don't come here and hustle me.
Jeremy Carl, Trump's nominee to lead the State Department,
has an extensive record of racism,
including suggesting pro-Trump January 6th rioters,
were treated worse than black people
during the Jim Crow segregated South
and arguing that the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
which prohibited racial discrimination in public spaces,
was used as an anti-white weapon.
So a little good news as we come to the end of the program this evening.
Thank you for that, Ralphs.
And hopefully somebody will kick in 25 bucks,
turn it into 50, and that'll get us down to,
oh, let's see here.
Brown paper bag here.
We're at 171463.
Let's see.
And that would get us down to 1764,
no, 1664-63.
So hopefully, hopefully.
And thank you, Ralphs, thank you so much.
With what shall we wrap up?
Oh, I would be remiss if I did not note that when the JD Egg or Jimmy Dick Bowman or whatever he's calling himself went to Hungary, part and parcel of all of his fun, was a stem winder against anyone who isn't white, cis, Christian, and straight.
and in an even greater show of just what a losing argument that is,
you know, Hungarian voters stomped the living shit out of his boy, Weakor,
just like Wisconsin voters,
went to the polls and stomped the shit out of the Supreme Court candidate
who had been the beneficiary of another barrage of anti-trans ads.
You'd think they'd learn.
But they won't because they can't.
And they can't, because it's piecework for these Republican candidates.
They're paid to run these ads, no matter how bad they, no matter how much harm they do.
And then, of course, there's what happened as NITWITNEO attended, no, really, a UFC cage match.
nitwit Niro was going to a
UFC cage fight
while Jimmy Dick Bowman
was trying to hammer out a deal
with Iran at 4 in the morning Iran time.
Ron Philip Kowski over at Midas News said
how the fuck is the president and secretary
has stated a UFC fight in Miami
while war negotiations affecting the world economy
are falling apart
and I know that motherfucker isn't going to try to play golf tomorrow too
well he did
and of course
well
there was never any
just as the last two negotiations
you know the last two times we negotiated
with Iran resulted in a sneak
attack
well we weren't negotiating in
good faith here either just as I mentioned
at the beginning of the program
those kinds of negotiations go on
and on and on
it was a two-week ceasefire
meaning you got two weeks to hammer something
out but within 24 hours
as Jimmy Dick Bowman declared,
Well, it's just not working.
Oh, and I guess, yeah, let's wrap up with Brian Nome, shall we?
In many ways, this case, this story just gets sadder and sadder and sadder.
More information coming out about Brian Nome,
you know, the initial report from the Daily Mail said that he had spent thousands of dollars
chatting with online
mostly trans sex workers
and we all saw the
ridiculous photographs
well it gets worse
apparently
Brian Nome
went on to tell some of these sex workers
how desperately he wanted to transition
wants to transition
how he wants
to get on hormone replaced
therapy, how he's already
picked out a feminine
name for himself, Crystal.
And while it was an easy
laugh when the news broke,
I got to confess, I'm not
laughing anymore. Because
the first thing I thought of,
and this is how the maggots are, mind you.
It was a year
or more ago, there was the mayor
of a small town in Alabama
known
to the folks around town as
Bubba. He was a Baptist
minister and he busted his ass to make his community better until a maggot publication called
1819 news found his secret he had been going to reddit and interacting with trans women and talking
about how desperately he wanted to transition and people who want to should be able to it's not a sin
it's not dirty.
It's just what
some people have to do
to survive.
Well, in Bubba's case,
1819 news hounded him
and hounded him and hounded him
until one day
people
couldn't find him.
And a sheriff's deputy from down that way
caught up with him, and he had a
gun in his hand. And in
front of that sheriff's deputy
he used that pistol
to eject his brains from the other side of his head.
Oh, ha, ha, ha, that sure is funny.
That Brian Gnome, he's a cross-dresser.
How, how, how!
No, it's a matter of the repression necessary
to buy into the filth that is maga.
I hope Brian Gnome doesn't do any such thing.
It's just sad that these magas.
have made so many people hurt.
Yeah, there's what I was looking for earlier.
Jimmy Dick Bowman, who remember confessed in his memoir
that he, in his teenage years, was questioning not his sexuality,
but his gender.
That's why we call him the JD Egg.
Well, he stood there next to Weik Dorban.
campaigning in Hungary. He had no business being there, none whatsoever. He was literally meddling
in a foreign nation's elections when he said this to the little fascists who gathered for the
warm thrill of confusion that space cadet glow. Fundamental error. They reject mothers and motherhood,
Fathers and fatherhood in the name of liberation.
They condemn children to mutilization and sterilization in the name of gender care.
And they practice institutional murder in the name of, quote, end of life planning.
And if you dare speak up about it, they will fight using the modern tools of social media to silence you through censorship.
I love it when people who are not silenced complain that they are being silenced.
You got to love the fact that this creep, never mind the bullshit about, you know, mutilating children, it doesn't happen.
But somehow now end-of-life care is a problem.
We want people to suffer instead of having access to what?
hospice? And of course
Hungary had
some of the most repressive anti-LGB
LGBTQ plus laws in all
of Europe. And it was
resoundingly rejected.
In fact,
the winner,
Peter Magyar,
he had a much different message than that
which Jimmy Dick Bowman
was delivering,
but that's not clipped out.
Among other things, he said, we will have a Hungary where no one is stigmatized because they think differently than the majority.
No one is stigmatized if they love someone else and love differently than the majority.
It is not allowed to differentiate between Hungarian and Hungarian to divide because that is a sin.
From now on, this will not be a country without consequences.
Those who robbed the country must take responsibility.
Those who incited hatred between Hungarian and Hungarian, they must take responsibility.
well, Mr. Magyar, there's one sure way to make sure that Wictor Orban and his acolytes never hurt Hungary again.
You got a handy filling station there with a lamp post?
It's a profoundly effective method.
Yeah.
So anyway, that's the program.
Let's give Randy Radar the final word.
They're crashing the economy on purpose so that they can buy it back up at bargain basement.
prices. Isn't that what they always do, Randy? Isn't that what they always do? And from Cynthia
in the Bay Area. I wish that Brian Nome could reach out to this community. I can only feel empathy
for people reaching this crisis point and needing to transition. There's light on the other side.
There really is. But part and parcel of that, Cynthia, as we both know, is the old axiom,
and it remains true and probably always will. Free. Free.
your head, your ass will follow.
Indeed.
So thanks, everybody.

I hope to go to the bank tomorrow, and that leads me to note that I have a doctor's appointment
tomorrow. It should not affect the program, but if anything goes sideways, it will, and I'll post on
social media. I don't plan on it, but I got to go to Somersville and
turn around, and that's to the north, and then turn around and go do south right back to try to get to Beckley.
So I'll let you know. Reminder day after tomorrow, and for the following, two days following that,
the one and only Tara Devlin of Tara Buster and I will be covering for the one and only Mike Malloy as he gets away for a little bit.

that's true
Victoria says
When I see someone caught mid-dress-up like Brian Nome
I see someone who has a lot more than gender to figure out
But when you have these impulses there's something there
Yeah
There's some there there
And the funny thing about Brian Nome is that he has access to a level of wealth
That a lot of trans people
Can't even contemplate as they struggle through
their transition. A therapist
would help Brian.
Yeah. And of course
if a
certain DoorDash grandma
says
well I'm just so grateful for the no tax on
tips because our whole
family is absolutely financially
devastated because we live in America
and I can't pay
for my husband's stage three cancer
treatments.
Extend her some sympathy.
and maybe encourage her to vote for people who might actually want to help her.
And always, always, always, Gina and Wayne, it's all for you.
Talk to you in a little bit, Victoria. Later.
