The Republicult™ On Parade

[Brother Mythos]

Drama Queen Greene gifted us with some more political performance art yesterday. Here's one of the better reviews:

"Marjorie Taylor-Greene Begs For Her Socialist Biden Bucks"

"These MAGA creeps scream about federal agencies every single say and demand we get rid of them all until they need something."

As per this review:

"Georgia Klan Mom Marjorie Taylor Greene told Real America's Voice Monday that she's demanding to get her fair share of socialist dollars from the federal government to help the people of Georgia after the damage caused by Hurricane Helene.

It's the height of hypocrisy when these creeps scream about defunding or eliminating all federal agencies every single say until they need something.
 
Then they come begging. Or they take credit for Democratic legislation that helps their districts and states, but hide that they voted against it."

It appears to me that evoluition has firmly encoded 'hypocrisy' into the The Republicult's™ DNA, as they unashamedly display more than their fair share of that trait. I would be more optimistic about the situation, if I believed is was actually a 'nurture vs. nature' thing. But ...

DOWN WITH DRUMPF!

Floriduh will soon be hit with a Category 5 hurricane, but Governor Ron DeSilliness is still playing politics.

"Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis refuses call from VP Kamala Harris ahead of Hurricane Milton: Source"

As per this article:

"Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has refused to take a call with Vice President Kamala Harris about Hurricane Milton, a source close to the governor told ABC News.

The DeSantis team claim the vice president's outreach is politically motivated, according to the source.

DeSantis staffers also said the governor has not spoken to President Joe Biden in the last few days.

DeSantis later said he was unaware that the vice president had reached out.

"No, I didn't know she called me. I saw [the report], but I was not aware of that," DeSantis said.

The governor also said he had not spoken to Biden but noted he was "thankful" that Biden "has approved what we asked for."

In response to DeSantis' purported snub, Harris called it "utterly responsible" and "selfish" to play "political games" at a time of crisis.

"People are in desperate need of support right now and playing political games with this moment, in these crisis situations, these are the height of emergency situations, it's utterly irresponsible, and it is selfish," Harris told reporters before boarding Air Force Two on Monday afternoon."

I suppose this is all that can be expected from a Republicult™ leader in Floriduh. But, given the potential severity of this hurricane, I would have hoped that even a turd like DeSilliness would be more than eager to gratefully accept all of the help he can possibly muster.

I think Hurricane Milton is going rank among the most destructive storms to ever hit the US of A.

Drama Queen Greene has gifted us with yet another performance. She's actually starting to make Louis Gohmert, the former Representative from Texas, look like a genius by comparison. And, I didn't think that was even remotely possible.

And, this time around Alex Jones followed up with a meme of her act.

"Hurricane Helene conspiracy theories about lithium mining, weather control spread widely"

As per this article:

"The false claim that the government controlled the weather to manipulate Helene's path to hit majority Republican areas has racked up millions of views on social media.

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on X , saying: "Yes they can control the weather. It's ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can't be done." The post, which had more than 40 million views at the time of writing, was also debunked via a Community Note on X.
 
Greene also posted what she described as a map of areas affected by Helene – in states including Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas — with an overlay showing the area is home to a majority of Republican voters.
 
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones also amplified the claim, saying "Bottom line the federal government could have killed the storm in the Gulf of Mexico." Both Greene and Jones pointed to cloud seeding as evidence that the government controlled Hurricane Helene."

Here's the link to this article:      Drama Queen Greene and Alex Jones Spread a Weather Control Conspiracy

I'll have to do a little research on this topic, but my memory tells me that Weather Control Conspiracies have been around for quite a while.

[Pergamos]

Has anyone said why the GOP is not controlling the weather too?

Has anyone said why the GOP is not controlling the weather too?

Actually, the GOP is controlling the weather. They're just not doing it right. And, that's why we have Climate Change today.

Whoever thought of this is absolutely brilliant!

"Mysterious Monument On Capitol Hill 'Honors' Jan. 6 With A Bronze Turd"

As per this article:

"WASHINGTON ― A mysterious bronze-colored monument was installed Thursday morning across the street from the U.S. Capitol grounds "honoring" the people behind the Jan. 6 insurrection with a massive turd.

The monument depicts an emoji-style pile of poop sitting on a desk with then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) nameplate next to it and a plaque underneath that reads:

This memorial honors the brave men and women who broke into the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021 to loot, urinate and defecate throughout those hallowed halls in order to overturn an election.

President Trump celebrates these heroes of January 6th as "unbelievable patriots" and "warriors." This monument stands as testament to their daring sacrifice and lasting legacy."

This is an interesting development:

"Trump's Gaetz pick as AG triggers audible gasp among some congressional Republicans"

As per this article:

"Reaction among Republicans on Capitol Hill to President-elect Donald Trump's choice of Matt Gaetz to be his attorney general on Wednesday ranged from shock to support.

Several House Republicans meeting behind closed doors said there was an audible gasp in the room when they heard Trump had picked Gaetz.

Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins was among those who said they were shocked, appearing to refer to Trump's demand that his nominees be done with recess appointments -- without Senate confirmation."

Here's the link to this article:      Capital Hill Republicans Gasp at Gaetz AG Nomination

I can't help thinking this particular nomination is a "smokescreen" meant to distract us from the many other horrible cabinet nominations being made. In any case, we'll now get to watch how the Republicult™ deals with the fallout from this stellar cabinet choice.

Bo Bo is Back!

"Boebert questions UFO experts on underwater civilizations"

As per this article:

"Members of the House Oversight Committee have spent more than a year trying to uncover secret government research into alien life and UFOs, also referred to as "unidentified anomalous phenomena" or UAPs. Wednesday's hearing, titled "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth," featured four experts who said the U.S. government and the Pentagon should be more transparent about UFO sightings and research.
 
Boebert agreed, saying, "The American people are being kept in the dark." She then questioned the experts on rumors she'd heard about aliens.
 
"There are rumors that have come up to the Hill of a secretive project within the Department of Defense involving the manipulation of human genetics with what is described as non-human genetic material for the enhancement of human capabilities, hybrids," Boebert said. "Are any of you familiar with that? Yes, or no?"

All of the experts said they were not familiar with that claim. Boebert spent most of her time asking about non-human civilizations in the ocean's depths."

No doubt her new constituents are finding this to be highly entertaining.

I usually avoid posting stuff that may be perceived as being too outlandish in topics on the Aneristic Illusions Board. But, I couldn't resist posting this particular article here:

"Was Tulsi Gabbard In A Cult That Eats Its Leader's Toenails? Is She Still?"

As per this article:

"Sure, any religion is kind of weird, if you look at it too closely. It is faith, after all, not science. But the group Tulsi Gabbard grew up in (and possibly is still in) sure sounds like a cult. Or to use the more polite term, a "High Demand, Closed Group," wherein the leader was worshipped like a God and some of his followers even ate his toenails, and sand from where he'd walked. Oh sorry, were you eating?"

And, this rather long article continues on in the same vein.

Here's the link to this article:       Was Tulsi Gabbard In A Cult?

So, today I learned the more polite term for a "cult." Who knows, that may actually come in handy someday.

Apparently Drama Queen Greene isn't getting the attention she craves from her anointed one, so she posted this on Elmo the Oligarch's site:

I'm going to have to start buying popcorn in bulk.

Well, Hulk Hogan did entertain at the RNC. So, for the Reality TV President, this is a perfectly logical appointment:

"Trump expected to name Linda McMahon as education secretary, CNN reports"

As per this article:

"WASHINGTON, Nov 19 (Reuters) - U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name Linda McMahon as education secretary, CNN reported on Tuesday, citing four sources familiar with the matter, putting the former pro-wrestling mogul at the helm of a department Trump has proposed abolishing."

So, the question now is, will it be a tag team match, a cage match, or what?
