Sounds like she’s another graduate of the Kari Lake School Of GOP Grifters, and that particular academy teaches only two lessons: You can’t be defeated if you never acknowledge the fact you lost, and there’s more money to be made by claiming to be the trampled victim of the Left than there is in actually winning an election and drawing a government paycheck.

“I was attacked by a pervert” sounds like a line I would have heard in an 80s comedy. Maybe a deleted scene from Ghostbusters.

The more times you fail at something the more liable you are to be successful. All you have to do is fail enough times. That's just math.

"ixnay on the anon-Qay"

was not on my bingo card today...sigh...

But what I wanna know is, with all the shit sloshing around this here nation already, why does anyone think it's a good idea to make up more?

I need to make some money producing a Latino themed challenge coin. Still working on the details, but there will be a crazy Q side and a grift side with a URL straight to me! I'll call them "Lunaticas!" Bingo $$$$$! I have been told by several people I trust that the Spanish language sites seem even worse than the English, so time to cash in!

The American dream includes expanding the umbrella of whiteness, one ethnic group at a time. (Offer void for incomes below average.)

If we didn't exist they would have to make us up.

Tell me where, in which country

Is Flores, The Virtuous Latina MAGAt,

Her spirtiual first cousin;

Echo Loomer, repeating QAnon noise

Over internet and vid,

Who had a beauty hardly human?

Oh, where are the snowjobs of yesteryear!

Where is the very wise Sarah H.

For whom for whom tRump's lies

were the golden gate

to her father's former place

And made her benighted state

Un woke and sleeping in hate:

Oh, here live the snowjobs of yesteryear!

The queen Melania ('the Dark one")white

as SS Ilsa with basilisk glare

Marge of the Big Foot, Bobert of the guns;

Senile Susan who from Maine,

And Krazy KKKarens from each state

Bad women burning with tRumpian hate..

Where are they, oh sovereign Virgin?

Oh, Here are the snowjobs of yesteryear!

Gentles, do not ask me in the whole week

Where they are -for they are here,

Lest I bring you back to this refrain:

Oh, today we still see the grifters of yesteryear!

-With apologies to F. Villon

"Same thing, only harder" leads to a rather exorbitant lubricant bill...

We laugh, but Republicans have been trying to peel off Hispanic voters with misinformation: https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/latino-groups-condemn-disinformation-in-miamis-spanish-media-11804362

(Somewhat related: why the Texas National Guard hasn't been federalized yet to remove Abbott's Floating Fence I have no idea.)

Speaking of grifters, I saw last night that Ammon Bundy lost in the courts and will be liable for millions. 🤣

I also heard things are not going well for the Grenons, the assholes who popularized bleach drinking by forging a fake church around it and whining about "religious freedom".

One suspects Americano Media didn't translate "Fake News" is because it's not totally intended for a Spanish-speaking audience, if you get my meaning.

Please don't dis the Texas Tribune! It's where I go for news about the Austin monsters Abbott, Patrick, and Paxton. Great coverage of Patrick's latest obscenity (getting a university professor suspended in a single afternoon after she supposedly criticized him in a lecture in Galveston https://www.texastribune.org/2023/07/25/texas-a-m-professor-opioids-dan-patrick/)

Insert wildly inventive limerick here.

Or just slink away muttering "I'mo run outta marks!"
