Hollow-Heart

Human Heart

 That's our Republi-Fascist Party – they are mendacious, hollow-hearted, perfidious frauds. (yeah, I know – gee DUH, rilly now, Donna!)

Shower Cap has a BRILL post up. He trenchantly notes that

"For the Republican Party, the problem today isn’t about the tragic loss of human lives, it’s about adjusting the volume knob on the propaganda machine for a few days."

Republi/Fascist Heart

and

"...these devious little shitstains (referring to the Republii/Fascist Party of course) aren’t as dumb as they want us to think they are; they know full goddamn well this isn’t about Call of Fucking Duty, they just need an almost-plausible excuse to help them navigate an awkward television interview or two in between the latest massacre and the next NRA fundraiser. That’s the nasty truth here; they don’t want to solve the problem."

Go read the whole thing. Go. I’ll be here when you get back.

By the by, that whole utterly bullshit VIDEO GAMES ARE TO BLAME trope? These on-the-fucking-take con men, these soulless tools, are doing there usual three card monte.

The problem, however, is that researchers have repeatedly debunked the claim. The notion was even dismissed by the Supreme Court in 2011, when Justice Antonin Scalia wrote that violent video games had a similarly minimal effect on children as cartoons starring Bugs Bunny or the Road Runner.(source)

The obscene right wing panto is done to cover up the fact that their NRA daddy has paid them major moolah to NOT care one bit about the lives of the humans they were elected to serve.

Who are the biggest cash winners in the NRA sweepstakes? In the 2018 cycle, Marsha Blackburn, the Republi/Fascist senator from Tennessee was the BIG winner, taking home a handsome $15,800 pot.

Second place finishers, bringing in $9,900 EACH were:
Ted Cruz (R-TX) (of course)    
John Culberson (R-TX)    
John Fason (R-NY)    
Josh Hawley (R-MO)    
Dean Heller (R-NV)
Patrick Morrisey (R-WV)
Collin Peterson (D-MN)    
Bruce Poliquin (R-ME)    
Jim Renacci (R-OH)
Matt Rosendale (R-MT)
Keith Rothfus (R-PA)
Paul, Ryan (R-WI)
Pete, Sessions (R-TX)
Pete Stauber (R-MN)
Claudia Tenney (R-NY)
Lee Zeldin (R-NY)

Go to OpenSecrets.org to see the rest of the NRA bought and paid for public “servants.” The blood money pay offs, in 2018 alone, came to a grand total of $711,654.

Our bloated with hate and petty personal grievances, blindingly dimwitted, word salad spewing preznint read from a script, obvs written by someone else:

"In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry and white supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in America. Hatred warps the mind, ravages the heart and devours the soul," the president said. (source)

Hah! Lovely words BUT he is the white supremacist president, the Hater in Chief. If he really believed that hate has no place in America, he’d resign, pack up and move in with his buddies Vlad and Kim Jong Un. On the hatred warping the mind, etc. part? The man doesn’t have the self awareness of a flea. I betcha he didn’t get that, whoever wrote this, was sending him up big time, doing some gold medal snarking.

Oh and Moscow Mitch is in on the game now. He’s offered an aren’t-I-clever-and-so-cutting-edge tongue in cheek (is it though?) invitation to his renfields to bring about the death of retired US Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel Amy McGrath, who’s running to repeal and replace him.

These fuckers won’t be happy until all dissent is quashed and democracy is dead.

VOTE while we still can!
