Top 10 Conservative Idiots #6: Stormtrooper Edition

Last edited Sun Dec 20, 2015, 03:14 PM - Edit history (2)


Top 10 Conservative Idiots #6: Stormtrooper Edition

Welcome back to the Top 10 Conservative Idiots! And another special Saturday edition because once again, conservatives are literally breaking the internet. Or at least Donald Trump is trying to. To recap last edition - TTCI embraced the power of the Dark Side with the pending release of the biggest movie of arguably the century: the Tina Fey / Amy Poehler comedy Sisters. No, once again I fooled you because that joke never gets old. I'm of course referring to Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens! Which as of right now, should be siphoning $10 bills out of the wallets of every man and woman in the US, and if you haven't seen it, it will probably get you too, because... it's going to make all money. I said all! Disney probably owns their own printing press and US Mint at this point. No funny opening videos or intros this week although I will post this GIF of Darth Trump getting attacked by one of America's mascots - the majestic bald eagle:



And while last week saw TTCI explore the power of the dark side, you know what... fuck it, there is no conservative light side. The light side is us! We are the light side! That would mean Obama is Luke Skywalker, Biden is Obi Wan, Howard Dean is Chewbacca, Bernie Sanders is Yoda, Hillary Clinton is Princess Leia, and so on and so forth. So with that in mind we're going to dedicate the first slot to Stormtroopers, er, Donald Trump supporters (1) because as I've said before in past editions, going full Nazi is about to have serious consequences for Donald Trump. Everyone's favorite illegal immigrant chasing Sheriff Joe Arpaio (2) is back in the news for calling the kettle black. For the gun nut on your Christmas list, Frontier Firearms (3) has the perfect last minute Christmas gift for the victims of the horrible tragedy in Sandy Hook. Mike Huckabee (4) thinks that the San Bernardino shooting was an act of war (uh... it's not). Meanwhile the GOP (5) had their last debate of the year before we dive head first into the 2016 election season, and we will post some choice quotes from the debate. Elsewhere, Flint, Michigan is fucked thanks to what anti environment nut jobs (6) have done to the city and it's a crisis so serious that the WHO has taken notice. During this fine holiday, if you're a distressed woman with a child in Kentucky, don't worry because Emergency Christian Ministries (7) is doing exactly what Jesus would do. One thing we can all agree on - Sandy Hook Truthers are the worst people on earth, aren't they? And one such evil douche, FAU professor James Tracy (8) was fired for it. Thankfully that's the last we'll see of him, though I doubt it. Donald Trump (9) thinks that he could have been the "good guy with a gun" in the Paris attacks, though something tells me he's not the concert going type. Finally, Pharma Bro (10) might be going away for a long, long time, though part of me really wanted to see the Wu Tang Clan pull off that insane heist they were talking about. Plus we'll finish off this pre-holiday edition with a trip to the Top 10 Conservative Idiots Video Vault. How awesome is Will Ferrell? Let me count the ways! We'll let you be the judge! So let's get right down to it, shall we? Enjoy! And as always don't forget the key!


[font size="8"]Stormtroopers [/font]


In the last edition I compared Donald Trump to Darth Vader. So what does that make his supporters? Storm Troopers? Trump has indeed gone full Nazi and it appears that his supporters are embracing the concept. This week at a Trump town hall meeting in ultra conservative Las Vegas, Nevada this happened.

Donald Trump's rally in Las Vegas on the eve of the next GOP debate turned chaotic on Monday as protesters shouted slogans and audience members screamed back.

Trump was interrupted several times by protesters shouting slogans supporting gun control and "Black lives matter!," prompting a furious reaction from the crowd. Some screamed, pointed, and at one point shoved a heckler as hotel security swooped in to remove them.

The first protests began after Trump invited Jamiel Shaw, a supporter, to the stage to recount how he lost his son after an undocumented immigrant gang member shot him while walking home. One protester who shouted in response that the story showed the need for gun control was promptly removed by professionals, a scene that played out repeatedly through the night.

As one man was dragged away, people in the crowd variously yelled, "Shoot him!" "Kick his ass," and "Light the motherf—-r on fire!"

A large middle aged man shouted, "Sieg heil!" — a Nazi Germany-era salute — as the protester was taken away. The man, whose motives were not clear, was far enough from the stage that it was unlikely Trump heard the remark.

The man who was removed as remarks above were shouted, Ender Austin III, told Buzzfeed News he was upset about Trump's remarks towards Muslims, a group the candidate has proposed temporarily barring from entering the country. He said he was not arrested after being taken from the venue and placed in police custody.

"He's a Muslim!" another man in a glittering black suit shouted as another protester was removed. "He's a Muslim!"

Trump took the interruptions in stride and complained that they were the only way to get media outlets to turn their cameras towards his crowds to show off their size.

http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/trump-audience-member-yells-nazi-salute-protester-removed-las-vegas-n480056


This is what happens when you go full Nazi - your supporters start mimicking the German SS. And that is extremely terrifying to anyone who believes in protecting the sanctity of the first amendment. With possibly 3 supreme court justices on the line, is this really who you want picking their replacements?


[font size="8"]Joe Arpaio[/font]


Joe Arpaio. That guy who actually does what your crazy racist uncle only wishes that he could do. So why is Sheriff Joe back in the news? Well he surfaced again to remind Trump of his active participation in the birther movement. See, this is the shit we democrats have to put up with. We elect a black guy to the presidency, and the republicans come back saying that he wasn't born in this country. We debunk the nonsense, and they keep it going for 8 fucking years!!!

Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio introduced Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump Wednesday at a rally by reminding everyone that they were both vocal members of the "birther" movement that questioned President Barack Obama's birth certificate.

Arpaio's comment came less than a day after the real estate mogul evaded a question about whether he thought Obama was a legitimate President.

"If you recall five months ago, I introduced Donald Trump," Arpaio said, introducing Trump as the rally in Mesa, Arizona. "At that time, I said a few things, we have something in common—the birth certificate investigation, which is still going on."

Both Arpaio and Trump have been vocal members of the "birther" movement which claims Obama was born in Kenya. At one point, Arpaio set people to Hawaii to investigate whether Obama was really born in the U.S.

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/joe-arpaio-trump-obama-birther


Hey Sheriff Joe, you can't do that when Bernie Sanders gets elected president. There's no "birther" movement that you can use to discredit him. But you know what? We've put up with 8 fucking years of this birther bullshit. If the republicans get to play that card, so do we. Remember that classic Maher bit where he compared Donald Trump to the offspring of an orangutan? Well it's been two years and he's never confirmed nor denied it! But let's revisit that, shall we?



Not to mention he dropped the lawsuit:





[font size="8"]Frontier Firearms [/font]


The debate on guns is a lot like an M. Night Shyamalan movie. Most of the time it sucks and it has a really shitty story line, and people keep going to these which means that they keep finding new and creative ways to keep you coming back. And just like an M. Night movie, a lot of death happens between when it starts and when it ends. But the more it happens the weirder it gets. And the weirder it gets, the more you tune in to see what the scary twist at the end is. In a scary new twist to the gun debate, a Tennessee gun shop is giving new meaning to the phrase "Onward Christian Soldiers". And just in time for the anniversary of the horrific massacre at the Sandy Hook Elementary School, at that! If you're a proud carrying NRA member who wants to pack heat at all times, and you also identify proudly as being a member of the "God Squad", then this might just be the perfect Christmas gift for that type on your Christmas list!


It’s been three years since Sandy Hook, and 554 American children have been killed by guns since then. That works out to an average of one child sacrificed every other day on the altar of the Holy Second Amendment. It’s probably worth it, however, since as you have no doubt noticed, the nation has not become a Nazi dictatorship. (If we want one of those, we’ll vote one in.) But for the guarantee that armed patriots could stave off tyranny, 554 children seems a small price to pay. Really small, especially when you notice the size of the coffins. Remember, Wayne LaPierre and the NRA say more guns are the only way to go. And if you can’t trust the gun industry’s chief lobbying organization, who can you trust?

In Newtown, where the Sandy Hook Elementary child murders took place, it’s also the first time that the anniversary has fallen on a school day. The middle and high schools will hold a moment of silence to commemorate the 20 children and 6 staff murdered in 2012, but the elementary schools won’t be doing anything to call attention to the date. Instead, extra counselors will be on hand if they’re needed by kids or staff. The children who survived the shootings are now in fourth grade, and attend a school in nearby Monroe while a new elementary school is constructed on the site of Sandy Hook Elementary, which was demolished several months after the massacre.
“At the elementary and intermediate school level, staff fully understands that many children under their guidance may or may not know about the tragedy,” Superintendent Joseph V. Erardi Jr. wrote in a letter to parents about the anniversary.
“If requested by parents, school staff will provide talking points with parents to assist them in personal conversations with their child,” Erardi said.

If you want to mark the day with less of a Gloomy Gus attitude, you could also proudly proclaim that you’re a Bible-believing Christian who packs heat, with an elegant and classy “Christian Carry” pin, the brainchild of one Brant Williams, owner of Frontier Firearms in Kingston, Tennessee. Williams told Knoxville TV station WVLT how he was inspired to create the pins, which feature a number of beautiful designs:



http://wonkette.com/596940/for-third-anniversary-of-newtown-child-murders-give-classy-christian-carry-pin-to-someone-you-love#4PDjBqJbpuzOILjT.99


Yes, three beautiful designs to help you or someone you love identify as a member of the forthcoming American SS when Donald Trump takes over. Isn't fascism grand?


[font size="8"]Mike Huckabee[/font]


OK Mike - we get it. You're the red blooded American male. Just like Ted Cruz, you bleed red, white, and blue and love manly American things like guns, bacon, babes, and sharp things. And you love Jesus, and hate the terrorists. Well, by calling what happened in San Bernardino "an act of war", you might actually be drawing attention to the cause of the terrorists and what they ultimately want to accomplish. But before I get into why the Huckster is on the list, let's first consult the FBI into what's really going on in San Bernardino:

The attacks, which were previously attributed to Islamic extremism, have led to a wave of anti-Muslim hate crimes across the U.S.

San Bernardino was mentioned 19 times in the Republican presidential debate last night. The candidates invariably blamed the shooting on “radical Islamist jihadists.”

CNN host Wolf Blitzer echoed the claims, stating “Americans have witnessed terror attacks in Paris and San Bernardino. The FBI director says the country now faces the greatest terror threat since 9/11.”

Read more: http://www.salon.com/2015/12/16/fbi_on_san_bernardino_massacre_shooters_did_not_post_support_for_jihad_on_social_media/


That's the current official word from the Federal Bureau of Investigations. This is not a jihad. So why is the Huckster in this week's edition and so far near the top?

Ever since Donald Trump suggested that surveilling mosques in the United States is a necessity to keep Americans safe, the issue has been a mainstay talking point among Republican presidential candidates. Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee weighed in Tuesday, arguing that surveillance of mosques does not infringe on the First Amendment rights of American Muslims -- because mosques are open to the public.

“If it’s a public place and people are invited to come, how does it violate anyone’s First Amendment rights if somebody shows up because they might just want to listen and see, is there something that is a little nefarious,” said Huckabee during CNN’s GOP presidential undercard debate in Las Vegas.

“If there is, then you take the second step of getting a search warrant and do whatever you have to do,” he added. “If Islam is as wonderful and peaceful as its adherents say, shoulding they be begging us all to come and listen and bring the FBI so we can all convert to Islam?”

http://www.ibtimes.com/american-muslims-blast-mike-huckabee-after-call-fbi-mosque-surveillance-dont-treat-us-2228904


So the Huckster wants America's mosques under 24 hour a day surveillance, despite the fact that the FBI just declared that San Bernardino wasn't a jihad, nor did they have ties to ISIS. Sometimes I feel embarassed to be breathing the same air as these people.


[font size="8"]The GOP[/font]


So how many people here saw the final GOP debate of 2015 this week? I didn't, I was too busy playing the Epsilon Program missions on GTA V. Kifflom! I was going to dedicate this issue to the GOP's last debate of 2015, but it has kind of taken a back slide because of the insanity and near riot that broke out at Trump's Vegas Rally. And by the way, wouldn't "Trump's Vegas Rally" make an awesome video game or reality series? Call me Netflix! So with that in mind, I'll just sit here quietly and post some of the more batshit crazy comments that came from each of the debate participants. You be the judge!

1) Donald Trump

“Our country is out of control. People are pouring across the southern border.”

Illegal immigration from Mexico has “come to a standstill.”

2) Chris Christie

"When I stand across from King Hussein of Jordan and I say to him, 'You have a friend again sir, who will stand with you to fight this fight,' he'll change his mind."

King Hussein of Jordan has been dead since 1999.

3) Ted Cruz

“When you are letting people in, when the FBI can't vet them, it puts American citizens at risk.”

The FBI is more than capable of vetting refugees.

“The United States can vet the refugees through a process that involves the FBI as well as the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense and other agencies. The vetting process can take up to two years, in which refugees undergo several rounds of security clearance checks.”

Ha, the 2016 races should be a shoo in if that's the best they got. Pass the butter.

Though I love this meme that surfaced regarding Chris Christie:






[font size="8"]Anti Environment Nut Jobs[/font]


I'd like to take some time out of making fun of conservative idiots in the news and talk about something serious for a moment. The next time somebody says "we're not doing enough to protect America's children", please show them this story and smack them across the face and say "you're wrong - there's absolutely more we could be doing, and it doesn't always involve guns". Well well well.. the tables have turned. But not for the reasons you'd think. And there's no joke, nothing you can say to paint this in a positive light, for it is absolutely horrifying. It's scarier than the last Saw and Purge sequels. It's more horrifying than being the guy in the middle of a 12 person human centipede. Let's go to Flint, Michigan, shall we? Hometown of Oscar winner Michael Moore. And now it's in the news for a totally different, and much scarier reason. And the anti environment nut jobs are oddly silent on this one. It appears that the WHO (World Health Organization) has declared Flint a disaster area.

For months, worried parents in Flint, Mich., arrived at their pediatricians’ offices in droves. Holding a toddler by the hand or an infant in their arms, they all have the same question: Are their children being poisoned?

To find out, all it takes is a prick of the finger, a small letting of blood. If tests come back positive, the potentially severe consequences are far more difficult to discern.

That’s how lead works. It leaves its mark quietly, with a virtually invisible trail. But years later, when a child shows signs of a learning disability or behavioral issues, lead’s prior presence in the bloodstream suddenly becomes inescapable.

According to the World Health Organization, “lead affects children’s brain development resulting in reduced intelligence quotient (IQ), behavioral changes such as shortening of attention span and increased antisocial behavior, and reduced educational attainment. Lead exposure also causes anemia, hypertension, renal impairment, immunotoxicity and toxicity to the reproductive organs. The neurological and behavioral effects of lead are believed to be irreversible.”

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/12/15/toxic-water-soaring-lead-levels-in-childrens-blood-create-state-of-emergency-in-flint-mich/


This is a crisis. A serious one. One so insane and horrible that it should have its' own name and theme music. And no, adding the word "gate" to the end of a word, does not make it a scandal. No, it only makes it a cliché. And where are the god warriors themselves who claim they're doing it [link: http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/09/us/colorado-planned-parenthood-shooting/index.html |"for the babies"] like a certain Colorado shooter did? Anti environmentalists and so called "child warriors" should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. *crickets chirping*


[font size="8"]Emergency Christian Ministries[/font]


For those of you that celebrate Christmas and wonder when and if Jesus is ever coming back, you might want to stop wondering because this next story is yet another extremely horrible one, but between this and Frontier Firearms, is it any wonder that Jesus might not ever come back? In the previous edition, I noted that Tennesse-based Carson Newman University is fighting for the right to discriminate against anyone they damn well please. Well they might have some allies in Emergency Christian Ministries, a Wellington, Kentucky based homeless shelter that just kicked out all of its' female members with children because... sex. Jesus probably blew a gasket after reading this story because that's exactly what he would do - discriminate against everybody.

A Christian-run Kentucky homeless shelter, Emergency Christian Ministries, just wished homeless women and children a Merry Christmas by booting them back onto the streets, claiming that it decided to ban all women (and their children) in an attempt to stop the “sex problem.” The misguided effort has left dozens of women and children on the streets with nowhere to go, and the situation is bleak — as the closest shelter that is accepting women is a forty minute drive from the town where Emergency Christian Ministries is located.

Billy Woodward, the coldhearted Emergency Christian Ministries Director, defended the ban and justified it by saying it is based on teachings in the Bible. Furthermore, Woodward claims that his actions were not “biased or prejudiced whatsoever.” He reasoned that homeless women were utilizing the shelter as an impromptu dating or hookup service that he was not having any part of, “They say, ‘We’re homeless, maybe we can find somebody, a mate or something.’ They want to meet or slip in a room occasionally and we can’t have that.”

The group has set a dangerous precedent for what behaviors are allowed or scolded in spaces that provide co-ed services to the underserved. To villainize women as the “sex problem,” not only denies men’s culpability, but perpetuates damaging myths about men’s inability to control themselves in the face of physical temptation. Woodward’s statements about women utilizing the shelters as a “dating service” marginalizes the real reasons women turn to shelters—domestic abuse, deep poverty, and glass ceilings in the workplace.

$10 says Billy Woodward will be involved in a horrifying sex or child abuse scandal in 3... 2... 1...




[font size="8"]James Tracy [/font]


You know if you've been reading the last couple of editions, I have railed on Alex Jones, gun nuts, and gun nut conspiracy theorists. And the latter group deserves every bit of shit thrown at them that they get. Especially the people who are claiming that Sandy Hook and San Bernardino were false flags carried out in an effort to enact some bizarre gun control laws that haven't even been discussed in government before, if you believe that shit, there's a room with padded walls waiting for you. Nobody is going to take your guns away. They might be coming to take *YOU* away for some serious mental counseling, but that's something that if you believe that, you should definitely get some serious help. And when people like the University Of Texas who stage a mass shooting, that is stunningly ignorant. First of all, why do gun rights groups exist? Guns have more rights than people. And one thing we can all hopefully agree on this site - is that the people who think that Sandy Hook and San Bernardino were false flags are pretty much the worst people on earth right? Like this asshole James Tracy, a professor at the Florida Atlantic University, who not only drank the Alex Jones Kool-Aid, he went out of his way to even go so far as to harass the families of the victims.

BOCA RATON, Fla. - James Tracy, an associate professor at Florida Atlantic University’s School of Communication and Multimedia Studies, was served a notice of termination Wednesday by the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs at the university in Boca Raton.

As the Sun Sentinel reports , Tracy is a Sandy Hook truther who is known to produce written material that is conspiracy theorist in nature.

In early 2013, following the Sandy Hook school shooting massacre in December 2012 in which 20 first-graders and six adults were shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., Tracy began writing on his personal blog suggesting the tragedy was staged and a complete hoax. The Sandy Hook conspiracy theory is part of a wider, underground and online movement of modern conspiracy theorists who are known as “Sandy Hook truthers.”

Truthers and other government conspiracy theorists generally agree that all or most national tragedies are orchestrated by the government for the purpose of inciting fear in order to gain or maintain control over large segments of the population in various ways. In recent years, the truther movement has grown drastically online and through social media in response to various mass shootings and tragic national massacres.

Hopefully that's the last we'll see of this guy, but I bet he'll have a cushy job waiting for him as an Infowars correspondant soon.


[font size="8"]Donald Trump[/font]


So continuing with the debates, Dër Trumpenfüror didn't just back down from his controversial plan to end free speech and close off "parts of the internet". No he doubled down on his plan to censor the internet, which means that if he's elected I'll be joining all of you in the gulags! Did I say gulags? I meant happy camps! Where we have arts and crafts and plenty of beer and wine, gourmet food buffets, and no rent! Goodbye, freedom! It was nice knowing you!

Donald Trump acknowledged at Tuesday night’s presidential debate that he would be open to "closing" down parts of the Internet in order to squelch the recruitment efforts of the Islamic State.

CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, one of the moderators, asked Trump if he would be open to closing parts of the Internet even if that put the U.S. in the company of China and North Korea, which censor parts of the web.

“I would certainly be open to closing areas where we are at war with somebody," Trump said. "I sure as hell don't want to let people that want to kill us and kill our nation use our internet. Yes, sir. I am."

Trump’s argument for shutting down part of the Internet is that ISIS is recruiting through social media.

“ISIS is recruiting through the internet. ISIS is using the internet better than we are using the Internet and it was our idea,” Trump said Tuesday. “What I wanted to do is I wanted to get our brilliant people from Silicon Valley and other places and figure out a way that ISIS cannot do what they're doing.”

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/donald-trump-open-closing-parts-internet-fight-isis/story?id=35074293


RIP First Amendment 1781 - 2016. You will be missed.

In even stranger Donald Trump news, during Trump's insane Vegas rally, this happened:

At a campaign stop in Las Vegas on Monday, Republican 2016 frontrunner and former reality TV star Donald Trump told a crowd of supporters that things would have gone differently if he’d been in Paris on the night of the terror attacks that killed 130 people last month.

Ring Wing Watch quoted the real estate mogul, who said, “If a few of those people that are now dead, if a few of those people had guns strapped to their ankles or strapped to their waists, you wouldn’t have the problem, right?”

“If I were there, I’m licensed to carry, I will tell you this, if I were there, if somebody were there, if we had some firepower in the opposite direction, those people would’ve been gone,” he said.

It’s not the first time the Republican presidential front runner has claimed he would personally stop terrorists.

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/12/donald-trump-tells-supporters-he-would-have-saved-paris-from-terrorists-with-his-ankle-gun/comments/#disqus


This raises a lot of questions like (1) would Donald Trump *EVER* go see the Eagles Of Death Metal in concert? (2) How could he get a concealed permit to carry in Paris because one country's gun laws definitely don't apply to another? And (3) How could he get a loaded gun with ammunition past concert security if he were in the audience? And how could he exchange fire with the gun terrorists without killing or injuring innocent bystanders? So many questions! And why do people like this guy?


[font size="8"]Martin Shkreli[/font]


I really hope that the Top 10 isn't offending any of the Christians who read this site regularly. I'm not doing this to offend anyone, except for the evil fucks who troll religion and get away with it, like the people I named in this edition. I'm not going after the average, every day Christian conservative or liberal. I'm going after people like entries #3 and #7 in this edition - the truly evil who deserve every bit of shit that's thrown at them. But this next story might prove that somewhere, out there, god really does exist. Because... the FBI nailed Pharma Bro this week for price gouging!! Hallelujah! There really is a god!!!

You might remember in volume 4, that Shkreli was the only purchaser of the Wu Tang's one off pressing of their new album "Once Upon A Time In Shaolin". It cost him a mere $2 million, and well, he got trolled and humiliated by the Wu Tang Clan extensively hard, because Wu Tang Clan ain't nuthin to fuck with! And well, it appears the FBI isn't anything to fuck with either because this happened:

Pharmaceutical entrepreneur Martin Shkreli was arrested by the FBI on Thursday, amid a federal investigation related to his former hedge fund and a drug company he previously headed.

The previously disclosed investigation of Shkreli, 32, who is now chief executive of Turing Pharmaceuticals, stemmed from his time as manager of hedge fund MSMB Capital Management and chief executive of biopharmaceutical company Retrophin Inc .

His arrest, witnessed by Reuters, comes amid a continuing separate controversy that has turned Shkreli into a lightning rod for growing outrage over the soaring prices of prescription drugs.

Thank you Jesus! Buddha! Allah! Muhammed! Krishna! Confucius! Ghandi! Xenu! Joseph Smith! The Flying Spaghetti Monster, and just about every god you can name!! When a bad guy gets nailed for fraud, it really is indeed a beautiful thing, isn't it? Don't worry next week we'll delve deep into Shkreli, Turing Pharmaceuticals, and the rise of their ultra corrupt empire.

Elsewhere, Shkreli threatened a kid on Twitter - which we don't endorse Twitter trolling here at TTCI, but we also don't endorse this kind of behavior:

Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO and corporate greed mascot Martin Shkreli is a busy guy. Earlier today he was arrested for securities fraud. But before the 32-year-old CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals got fingered by the long arm of the law, he kept up a busy livestreaming schedule on YouTube.

Mostly, the livestreams aren’t very interesting; in general, Shkreli seemed to spend a lot of time playing video games. But on Monday, his livestream included a 90-minute conversation with a 17-year-old, female high school student who attends his alma mater, Hunter College High School.

... Commenters on the live chat remarked on how unseemly Shkreli’s participation in the video chat looked. “BRUH SHE’S IN HIGH SCHOOL HANG UP,” a commenter wrote. ... “how old is she?” another commenters asked. “NOT OLD ENOUGH” Shkreli replied. But he kept talking.

... Shkreli then offered an alternate ass-whooping scenario, inviting a teenager into his home. “You can come over to my fucking apartment right now, I will fuck you up... I don’t care how old you are,” he told the teen.

I'm normally not one to kick a man when he's down, but there are exceptions to the rule, and no one deserves it more than Shkreli. Enjoy prison! I'm sure you will make a lot of nice friends there!

[font size="8"]The TTCI Video Vault[/font]

Finally this week, I'm treating you to an early Christmas present because I love you, the readers and people who like and recommend these oh so much! Saturday Night Live - that show that most people miss the night before because they were out getting drunk at the bar, but when they wake up the next morning they're like "how did I miss that?". Will Ferrell's George W. Bush impression is the stuff of legend - easily one of the best presidential impersonators since SNL's existence. So we'll close out this edition by bringing back Will's legendary Bush impression - which he revived on last week's SNL.



Standing O!!!!!

See you next week!
