What If I Tell Them Rick Perry Made Me Do It?

Our big wet president is so smart.

Big Day For Our Big Wet Boy

He has cancelled his golf game, presumably to man the twitter machine.

Incoming!!!

Morning Thread

Hillary got it wrong. It's a basket full of idiots, not deplorables.

And after I finish tweeting, Slick Rick is on next

Hilarious.

President Trump told House Republicans that he made his now infamous phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the urging of Energy Secretary Rick Perry — a call Trump claimed he didn’t even want to make.

Yo, where's Pence and Barr?
Well I don't know they're late
Told 'em the time, oh I forgot the date
Man, you did it again, oh no
Yo, here we go, come on, here we go, come on

Saturday Evening

Rock on.

But My Good Friends In The GOP, Those Fine Folks

Joe Biden has watched the GOP his whole life and never thought "wow they would do that to me, also, too."

Mr. Biden was even blunter, and angrier, in private after news first emerged that Mr. Trump had exhorted the Ukrainian government to investigate him and his son.

“I can’t believe this guy is going after my family like this,” he told Senator Chris Coons of Delaware, as the two campaigned in Iowa, Mr. Coons recalled.

Weather

Global warming aside, the United States has the worst weather in the world. Of course the weather isn't the same everywhere, but almost everywhere in this country it's bad in its own way. Much of the Midwest literally has the worst weather in the world. There are colder places and there are hotter places, but few places where you get 105 degree days in July and -10 degree days in January. Even some places with more moderate weather overall (highs not so high, lows not so low) have bizarrely large intraday temperature swings.

Today is a pretty nice day, if cold compared to... 2 days ago.

Both Sides

I agree that we should impeach both Trump and Joe Biden.

Just to keep the universe in harmony.

Saturday Morning

Late Night

enjoy

Friday, Friday

Happy hour is here.

Trump's Gonna Be In The Stocks By Tomorrow

Inevitable.

Who's in charge of strategy: Officials said Kushner and White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney are the officials most focused on developing an impeachment strategy.

Afternoon Thread

Friday funday with the Greatest Medical System In The World (nothing to be concerned about).

Both Sides

One side thinks it is a crime to break the law. The other side doesn't. Who is to say?

Bozo And The Ozone Man

You might remember that was what the very respectable George Sr. called Clinton and Gore for a bit. I was reminded of this because of seeing some MAGA types on the internet going "hur hur hur what happened to the ozone hole." Well there was a global plan and we fixed it. Acid rain? Fixed a lot of that in the US, too. Smog? I am old enough to remember when the Philadelphia suburbs had visible smog, and this is not really a valley or a basin. LA was horrible. We had lifeless rivers. Some of those are not so lifeless now!

One never knows when people are being idiots and when they are trolling, but some of these problems were real and they got better, not simply figments of the crazy imagination of the Ozone Man.

Has Nancy Pelosi Consulted The Online Right?

They and the "white guys who have time to hang out in dinners at 10AM on a Tuesday" are the only people who matter.

Are they still with Trump?????

Breathtaking Morning

Late Night

Rock on.

Pedo Guy

Oh, Elon.

When Elon Musk publicly called a British cave rescuer who had insulted him a “pedo guy” last year, the billionaire entrepreneur had no evidence to back up his claims. And while he later apologized for the outburst, the Tesla Motors and SpaceX CEO went on to hire a private investigator to dig up dirt that might support his unsubstantiated accusation.

BuzzFeed News has found that the self-proclaimed private investigator whom Musk hired was a convicted felon and scammer.

Thursday Afternoon

For a brief moment I did think it was Friday.
