  3. Self-described victims are already coming out of the woodwork to get their grubby hands on some of that sweet, sweet $1,776-million Trump 'weaponization' dough.
    The members of this cast of characters will probably surprise few of us when they're all finally lined up with their hands out and their self-serving hubris fully revealed.
    In the meantime, though, you can join Wonkette's Gary Legum as he begins to reveal the boldest and brazenest of the worst of the worst:
    "...compensating the people who trashed the Capitol and threatened the lives of elected officials would be akin to compensating the families of the 9/11 terrorists who flew those planes into buildings, not their victims."

  5. "What more can be said about the 79-year 11-month and nine-day old decaying human form of US President Donald John Trump that has not already been said by The New York Times about Joe Biden?"
    Marcie Jones chronicles the visit of Jabba the Trump to The Villages in Florida at Wonkette dot com.

  7. It's unofficial!
    Mommy blog, Wonkette, has now officially served up more news about the federal invasion of Memphis, Tennessee, than all of the mainstream media combined.
    AND they're the first to give national coverage to the story of one of puppy-murderer Kristi Noem's goons needlessly kicking a puppy while breaking into a citizen's home.
    THIS puppy will survive, but it required veterinary care for a broken rib.
    At least they didn't shoot it like they're shooting people.

  9. YOU won't need to click a New York Times paywalled link because Wonkette's Marcie Jones has given us a more entertaining summary than the original article:
    It's the story of how that scamp Jeffrey Epstein kept climbing the ladder of financial fraud by scamming rich people out of their favorite dollars.
    Besides the side-hustle of sex-trafficking, he built his fortune by running serial cons. When one scam was exposed, he'd just drop it and move on to another -- usually with the help of a woman or a Richie Rich he'd charmed.
    Rich people are just like us except they don't face consequences when they're caught.

  11. @wdlindsy

    "Then there was the woman officer they spoke to, who had this to say, among other things, about Hegseth’s speech and its weird focus on PT and shaving:
    “It’s something I would expect from a captain or a. major,” the officer said. “I don’t want the secretary of. war to be focused on baseline PT stuff.”

    Great illumination of the fact that Hegseth is utterly unqualified for the job - does not even know, this far along, what his job is.

  15. I'm never going to join #Substack, which I guess makes me a #notSubstack(?) I don't know. But, I would like to donate to certain authors, like #paulkrugman and publications, like #Wonkette

    Is that even possible?

    Thanks!

  17. Not that voting here in the rapidly-diminishing twilight of the republic has been doing all that much for us, but twenty years ago when I posted this, I still had enough electoral faith in my soul to find it amusing.

  18. Seriously Love the Kind of Crazy that comes from #Wonkette . This one from Thousands Show Up in Detroit For History Lesson From Prof. Obama

    wonkette.com/p/thousands-show-

    The pin was red, with a black and white image of Donald Trump that read, “In your guts. You know he's nuts.”

  19. “Well guess what? Keeping up with Donald Trump’s fucking lie cannon isn’t the job of the president of the United States.”

    Thanks @evanhurst

  21. @cdarwin It's telling that #MSNBC is now reporting it this way when good old snarks like #Wonkette and #JeffTiedrich have been doing it for weeks.

  23. Is it the American Experiment? The American Dream? The American Un-Disneyfied Scary Gory Fairy Tale? Or the American Bedtime Story it tells itself to keep the nightmare truth in the shadows?

    #Wonkette ponders just how watered-down American history has become in order for it to be rendered potable. And how much of a fool the most recent Speaker of the House is.

  25. CW: USpol insurrectionist sentenced

    @LizDye giving us an update on the Jan 6th bullhorn lady getting sentenced to 57 months

    wonkette.com/p/bullhorn-lady-r

    bullhorn lady smashed a window to break in, then later posted things like "there were lots of security. They had to retreat into the building and fight back" and "IT WAS F[***]ING WAR TO GET IN. IF YOU WERE NOT HERE THEN STFU."

  27. Quote of the day, from #Wonkette:

    "[ChatGPT is] designed to predict text that sounds mostly natural, if bland. It's sometimes so good at doing that that people think it's actually communicating. It isn't, and as we've said, people shouldn't anthropomorphize computers anyway. They don't like it."

  29. Excellent take-down on #wonkette of the increasingly right-wing #billmaher

    "Last night, on his show that we don't know who the hell still watches outside the 12 people pompous enough to call themselves The Intellectual Dark Web, Bill Maher took some great leaps and bounds to figure out how George Santos and his weird lies fit into his Universal Theory Of Liberals Are To Blame For Everything Bad In The World."

  30. I see nothing riles up commenters on a certain wonky site more than a 23 year old woman in a horrible situation who made some poor choices before redeeming herself.

    I mean, how dare that hoooor work for that man and fall for his BS like hundreds of much older and experienced people before her, and then dare to try to do the right thing?

    #wonkette you are disappointing me today :(

  31. @AbbyFla I get at least one laugh a day from #Wonkette, and very good reporting.
