Who ARE These People?

Sometimes, I feel bad that I’m so out of touch with popular culture and names in the news.

Yes, I DO keep up with what’s happening on the national front. I’m less informed about what’s going on internationally and I feel lousy about that. In my defense, the US has been a raging dumpster fire, democracy is on the ropes, COVID is surging again AND, over the past six years, TAB, Coco and Rocco all died, I’ve had innumerable eye procedures, five giant, death defying neurosurgeries and I’m now in a constant state of rehab.

Please excuse me for not knowing who the fuck Blaire Erskine is. With a name like that though, it’s a sure thing she rocks some serious entitlement and has a clothing allowance rivaling my mortgage payment.

I googled her—apparently she’s some teevee comedy writer who’s made insulting and tone deaf comments on the bird app about Black women. Oh and she’s, reportedly, been pointing to Stacey Abrams, saying “I’m not racist. See, I have a Black friend!” Well, not in those exact words but close enough.

And Debra Messing? She’s now taking a ‘bold’ anti-Biden/there’s no point in voting stand. Why?

Messing said she'd gotten Joe Biden elected and wanted to know why she was being asked to do anything at all, yelling that there didn't even seem a point to voting. (source)

Apparently she’s pissed that Biden’s not waving his magic wand to fix all Mango Mussolini’s and Moscow Mitch’s crimes against America. Wave the wand faster, Joe! Also, she doesn't seem to understand how our government works (and doesn't) OR what it means to be an active citizen.

Wasn’t Messing on a sitcom 20 years ago? That’s nice. I don’t feel an urgent need to pay attention to her opinions though.

And what’s this shit about thermostats flipping votes?

Jeffrey Clark, a Justice Department official appointed by former President Donald Trump, told senior officials that China used thermostats to change ballots in the 2020 presidential election. (source)

This is from an August 2021 report which is coming out in this week’s J6 Hearings. I didn’t know who Jeffrey Clark was. Now I know that he’s a creative, though hideously vile, toad. He should change careers—write science fiction instead.

I hear tell that Trump, like a ten year old child, fell under the ‘malignant influence of a trio of fringe advisors.’ At least according to his good buddy and fellow dimwitted attention whore Geraldo Rivera.

Mango Mussolini is a near 80 year old career conman. He didn’t, according to Rivera, hunt out those ‘malignant influencers.’ No, no, no, the former guy was set upon—out of nowhere and forced to coup. Em…sure dude. Only the stupidest of MAGAts would spew that utterly transparent fecal pool of malarkey, let alone believe it.

Okay, I'd heard of Geraldo Rivera but who the fuck are Laura Ingraham and Jeanine Pirro. No, never mind. I don't want or need to know.

Hey, is anyone investigating Ginni and Clarence Thomas? How about Beer Kavenaugh and Amy Handmaid Barrett and their job interview lies. Seems this is more important stuff than some privileged comedy writer's thoughts or a has been pseudo journalist’s excuses for the former guy.

Ya know?
