Okay, so this GSA asshole minion is holding the country hostage

(so to speak).

Joe has already asked people on Twitter to help fund it. Twitter refused.

But that tells me something: there is a way to fund this without the GSA. How would that work, i.e., what would the money go for, and how would it be spent?

Contructive responses only, please.

Speaking of donnie's golf courses...

I picked up a copy of a golf magazine at a friend's yesterday, and it had a list of the 100 best courses in the US. So, just out of curiosity, I checked to see if any of donnie's made the list.

Nope.

On one hand, I think Biden's team is right to not get involved

in all this election bullshit. Let the courts decide the lawsuits and keep letting Rudy make an ass of himself and his ambulance chasers. Keep out of it.

On the other hand, I have to believe that his team has measures in place to do something if push comes to shove, and that they're waiting and hoping they don't have to go there.

I always thought the Marx Brothers were funny,

but this Giuliani farce leaves them in the dust.

Biden to Republicans: "I will work with you. I understand a lot of your reluctance... "

From HuffPost:

Asked Monday what his message was to GOP officials who have not accepted his win, the former vice president said he understood their position and suggested he wouldn’t hold it against them when he takes office next year.

“I will work with you. I understand a lot of your reluctance because of the way the president operates,” Biden said at a news conference in Delaware after a meeting with top economic and labor leaders.


IOW, "I know he's a bully and you're afraid of him."

Bombshell leak: Rudy is a double agent!

The truth comes out:

Documents leaked yesterday from secret emails reveal that Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York and current personal attorney to President Donald Trump, was recruited and hired in 2016 by the Supreme Secret Council of the Ministry of Codology of Antifa to infiltrate the Trump administration. The emails state that Giuliani agreed to gain the confidence of the President in order to be assigned the job of conducting spurious legal actions on behalf of the Administration, actions that would ultimately fail due to their apparent lack of legal merit. Giuliani also agreed to conduct himself in an obstreperous manner during interviews and appearances in order to further his standing with the administration's supporters.

It is unclear from the documents what Giuliani might have had in mind for his career after his duties are completed, although two of the emails hint that he may leave Antifa, obtain a long black hairpiece, grow a long beard, and head to Moscow to offer his services as Rasputin's descendant and advisor to President Vladimir Putin.

Now we know!

There seem to be a lot of "tactical" products recently.

I see them advertised all the time, and I think it's really funny.

Cargo pants are now tactical pants.

Tactical belts to go with the tactical pants.

Tactical golf shirts.

Tactical boots.

Tactical flashlights.

I am NOT making this up: a tactical spork.

I even saw a tactical holder (clips on your belt) for hand sanitizer bottle.

Okay, so a good chunk of it is just marketing, but does anyone else think this is just... funny?

I predict Putin will call Biden to congratulate him.

But I think he's waiting for the right moment. Either after the EC has called the vote, or when he thinks donnie is ready for a heart attack. Why waste the polonium, right?

Have there been any MAGA riots or protests?

I haven't heard anything since last week. Have they just tossed in the towel?

donnie doesn't need aides right now: he needs nannies.

From what I've been reading about aides trying to placate him, and interventions, and such, I think what he needs right now is a bunch of nannies.

Maybe a squad of former USMC drill instructors (male or female), although I wouldn't want to wish that on any Marines. Or anyone else, for that matter.
