    But gag, what stink from Mar-a-Loser ebbs?

    It is Trump, and he’s wafting Rudy’s farts.

    From so far south, most of the nation is now stink free.

    But the Rudy one just smiles and rips off yet anew

    The pungent essence of the tyrant clown’s reign.

    Trump stinks.

    Great God Almighty,

    Trump stinks!

    Secretary of State Jena Griswold was just elected President of the Democratic Association of Secretaries of State  (DASS). Here’s to seeing Colorado’s best election practices adopted nationally, with the backing of the For the People Act.

    New voter registration numbers are up from the Secretary of State's office. Republican party appears to be taking a hit after the November general election.

    It’s one of those get out in front of the angry crowd and make it look like you’re the Grand Marshall kind of days for Ttumpy:

    Trump resigns from Screen Actors Guild: ‘I no longer wish to be associated with your union’

     President Trump is resigning from The Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists after they threatened to expel his membership from the union after the Capitol riot — to which he said, “Who cares!”

    The former president’s letter of resignation Wednesday comes after the SAG-AFTRA board voted “overwhelmingly” that Trump violated the union’s membership guidelines in the wake of the Capitol riot. 

    The former president’s resignation provoked a two word response from SAG-AFTRA: “Thank you.”

    Yep . . .

    Someone Is Going to Have to Explain to Me How This Makes Any Damn Sense

    Nobody can find Kyle Rittenhouse, who was last seen living the life of a celebrity criminal in a local taproom.

    . . . Someone?  Someone?  Bueller? . . .

      Well, Rittenhouse's lawyer says he knows and will provide an address for Kyle IF the court agrees to seal it. 

      I expect there will be an interesting discussion, and potentially the defense lawyer being asked to show cause why his client AND he ought not to be sanctioned for evading the release agreement.

    Today in looney math . . .

    . . . something like 30% of the House Republicans QOPers who voted, voted to oust their own #3, Liz Cheney, from her leadership position . . .

    . . . meanwhile, less than 5% of the voting QOPers voted to remove their #00Q, MTG, from her committee assignments.

    Marjorie Taylor Greene Apologized and Got a Standing Ovation. Seriously.
