What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

I've been recently trying out the Intellect app.

Me too. 

I'm doing the procrastination thing. And now that I think about it, I haven't used it in a few days.

According to BotSentinel, Twitter really went 1937 on Q nuts.  At least 40,000 accounts were purged today, obviously heavily skewed towards "disruptive" and "problematic" accounts.  I guess Twitter must've been keeping tabs and had the lists ready for just such an occasion.

Ok so things went pretty fucking bad for him. One of his best friends was killed with a fire extinguisher, he got the fuck beat out of him and had to body slam and fight with lots of people, and a woman had a heart attack and died in his arms while he was trying to deliver CPR. It is a miracle he is still alive.

Oh wow, he was right in the middle of it

What evidence do we have that Pelosi and company are 'fucking around like this is some kind of business as usual time'?

Their entire careers? I am excited to be proven wrong though. Let's see some leadership and get the Democrats and others fired up in support of the government.

Perhaps this is a time for you to think on some cognitive behavioral therapy techniques? I've been recently trying out the Intellect app.

Perhaps. I will take a look at it.

Yep

I knew he probably was. Really upsetting.

He loved being a cop and being a Capitol cop. I don't know what this means for him moving forward.

The Rule of Law Defense Fund (RLDF), a 501(c)(4) arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA), helped organize the protest preceding the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol that took place on January 6, 2021.

As a 501(c)(4), RLDF is not required to reveal its donors. RLDF has received at least $175,000 from the Koch-backed Freedom Partners. Other RLDF donors include Judicial Crisis Network, the Rule of Law Project, and the Edison Electric Institute.

RAGA is a 527 political organization that helps elect Republican attorneys general and can accept unlimited contributions from wealthy individuals and corporations. As previously reported by Documented, RAGA received significant funding from numerous corporations in 2020, including Koch Industries ($375k), Comcast Corporation ($200k), Walmart ($140k), Home Depot ($125k), Amazon ($100k), TikTok ($75k), 1-800 Contacts ($51k), Chevron ($50k), The National Rifle Association ($50k), Monsanto ($50k), Facebook ($50k), Fox Corporation ($50k), Uber ($50k), Coca Cola ($50k), Exxon ($50k), and Google ($25k).

RLDF appeared in a list of groups "Participating in the March to Save America" alongside entities including Stop the Steal, Turning Point Action, Tea Party Patriots and others.



RLDF also sent out a robocall detailing where and when the protest would take place.

"I'm calling for the Rule of Law Defense Fund with an important message," the robocall stated. "The march to save America is tomorrow in Washington D.C. at the Ellipse in President's Park between E St. and Constitution Avenue on the south side of the White House, with doors opening at 7:00 a.m. At 1:00 p.m., we will march to the Capitol building and call on congress to stop the steal. We are hoping patriots like you will join us to continue to fight to protect the integrity of our elections. For more information, visit MarchtoSaveAmerica.com. This call is paid for and authorized by the Rule of Law Defense Fund, 202-796-5838."

RLDF's role in organizing the protests, which turned into a violent mob attack inside the Capitol, is ironic given its 2020 election campaign warning of "lawless liberal mobs" burning down buildings and committing violence. The campaign, dubbed "Lawless Liberals", came in the aftermath of the largely peaceful protests following the murder of George Floyd by police and the shooting of Jacob Blake.

"The Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA)'s five-month Lawless Liberals video campaign repeatedly warned Americans about the dangerous reality of lawless liberals run amok in cities across the country," RAGA said in a statement.

Republican attorneys general have been heavily involved in efforts to undermine the results of the 2020 presidential election. Shortly after Joe Biden was declared the winner, Republican attorneys general filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court that sought to reject some mailed ballots in the state of Pennsylvania. Republican attorney general Ken Paxton–who has been embroiled in bribery, abuse of office and other criminal allegations–filed a lawsuit in the U.S. Supreme Court regarding four battleground states and alleging unconstitutional changes to their voting laws before the 2020 election. Prior to the protests, Paxton appeared on Fox News and said he hoped to be at both rallies.

RAGA and Republican attorneys general issued statements denouncing the violence. "The Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) and the Republican attorneys general (AGs) stand together to condemn the violence, destruction, and rampant lawlessness occurring at the U.S. Capitol today. These actions are an affront to the rule of law, our Constitution, and our American political discourse."

RLDF, which helped organize the protest, has not made a statement at the time this report was published.

What's the story with Kevin Sorbo? I liked him (haven't heard about him since Andromeda) and he seemed like a decent fellow.

[The Brain]

Reminds me, I need to watch Bitch Slap again. Not for Sorbo, mind.

He's apparently been a cook for quite some time, even somewhat back in his Hercules days.

Finally people are talking about the most important part of Qanon.  News reports focused on the absurdity of the whole thing.  "Democrats are satanic cannibals'", is an absurd fantasy.  It's easy to dismiss, it's almost whimsical.  Something that dumb rubes who don't know better believe in.  Occasionally someone would make the connection between Qanon and the blood libel which is much less silly and much more scary  These narratives both missed the most important thing about Qanon: the belief that Donald Trump would suspended the constitution and murder his political  foes.  The people who attacked the capital thought this day had finally come.  People showed with hand cuffs and rope.

People are finally starting to realize what sort of danger that Qanon represents.  It really bothers me to know that so many ordinary Americans bought into this thought this was a good idea.  It's fucking monstrous.

What dish is he known for?

A useful skill, but not very relevant.

Oh. I kind of liked the idea of a Sorbo sorbet.
