“R(u)FK'ing Kidding Me” is first-rate and started my day with a smile.

Another excellent defenestration of the prestige media, not to mention the NR rat-fuckers, from Roy. Few things have puzzled me more than serious media outlets taking the charisma-deficient weirdo DeSantis seriously. But one of few things that did was anyone in the serious press looking at RFK, Jr. without envisioning him in an invisible tinfoil hat. But anything for clicks, I guess.

I was set aside for a bit over the "OMG- a Kenndy is running for the Democratic Nomination and Old Joe Biden is just to old to compete with that! Charisma- RFK

( His Whole Name is already famous.) Is so well spoken and he reaches across aisles. He has dogs!And they obey him !

( Not like old Joe Biden's dog who bites people and poops on the floor! Or Maybe Old Joe poops on the floor and blames the dog)

Then I saw him speak and discovered he's like Rand Paul without all the personal magnetism.

Fuck the press. Jesus.

I'm glad I'm here in the Heartland and I'm probably never going to run into anybody who works for

*Vice

Or Politico because I would probably get in trouble when I went all Michigan Republican on their stupid ass.

I hafta say, the claim that the COVID virus is actually a bioweapon designed to attack "Caucasians and black people" but harmless against "Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese" was not on my bingo card. At this point, I really think you could make up anything at all about the COVID virus or vaccine and get a large quantity of MAGATs and such to believe it. "The virus deliberately causes black people to lose their sense of rhythm and makes Caucasian children to want to go to Clown College". "COVID vaccines not only make your body magnetic but also radioactive, and months or years down the line you will find yourself fighting off a spider with a sewing needle." And then, in Florida, Republican County Executive Committees will vote to completely ban the COVID-19 vaccine, calling it a "biological weapon." Oh wait, they did that already.

If Ethel wasn't 95 years old I hope she'd be beating the shit out of her little hellspawn. I bet she and Bobby made damn sure their eleven whelps got every shot but the one for stealing chickens and now he's encouraging irresponsible behavior.

"Use Bobby to get rid of Joe, then use Gavin to get rid of Bobby."

Matthew Scully needs to put his Democrat-Party action figures away and get out of the house and play with the other kids more.

The msm need for a horse race election will be the death of us. But the msm’s inability to absorb facts in order to report on the accuracy of candidates’ statements is where they fail us. I used to think they willfully refused to call out lies and bullshit because they were afraid of offending someone (bosses? advertisers?) but now I think they have the same aversion to mastering difficult topics that the Supreme Clowns have. So much easier to go with the drama than to understand virology, immunology, climate, economics, statistics, etc.

“rough and unseemly at times” -- this feels like some kind of genteel Victorian euphemism given what the GOP has been serving up for several years now.

In a nice companion piece to this, Judd Legum combs through his donors and (surprise!) they’re mostly Republicans: https://popular.info/p/gop-donors-fuel-rfk-jrs-presidential

OT but Propublica has a fun piece on Harlan Crow’s yacht situation.

I have it on good authority that a cabal led by King Felipe VI of Spain and Ashkenazi Jews led by Vladimir Zelenskyy injected the Pfizer vaccine into Djokovic’s bananas during the Wimbledon match yesterday, causing him to lose to Alcaraz. The authority? Ashkenazi Jew expert Andrew Sullivan on Bill Maher.

I read a quote where RFK Jr said it was a bioweapon *and* a “technological” weapon. Not sure how the technological weapon fits in, but I have to assume it involves the plot of InnerSpace with billions of ChiComs replacing Dennis Quaid’s character and polluting our precious bodily fluids.

Nothing says presidential these days by saying that Chinese people and Jews are protected from the ‘Rona without a scintilla of proof. Just remarkable.

Anyway.

Obligatory: Since Williamson’s Jewish, filling in for Jr would be awfully complicated. Full disclosure: I’ve liked Williamson’s political message for years because she’s the only (relatively) high profile wannabe who has any issues with capitalism.

Meanwhile, I remain bewildered: How can an unhinged DINO possibly (even with the electoral college) take away more votes from Biden than from Trump? I mean, I understand the media’s hard ons for this idiocy but when viewed in reality? Please.

You people think you're so smart. Has it ever occurred to you that, for years, the Chinese have been sitting around saying, "We need a bio-weapon in order to take over the U.S., but first, what do they have that we *don't* have, and that we want?" (Room falls silent as all think.)

One guy: JEWS!

(All stand, applaud, approve COVID research and development.)

Meanwhile, watching from a dark, rococo drawing room in Stamford, Joe Lieberman slowly runs his antennae through mandibles protruding from his exoskeleton, chortling, "No labium. Hah!"

Well, when you list all the "despites" it almost seems like this RFK guy might be a bit of a longshot.

So strange how all the old verities - all you need to get elected in MA is be a Kennedy, and reasonably smart, and have some good degrees, and live in MA - just don't apply anymore. One wonders if NR will ever check whether their models still match a reality that apparently only they and their friends on the Post staff hallucinated that one time on the back nine of East Potomac.

"While Republican affairs can certainly get rough and unseemly at times, it’s usually the Democratic Party we can turn to for lessons in cold, unsentimental power politics."

jeebus christo, what can you even say to this?!!? alternative reality indeed.
