Wherever shalt thou see a man on horseback, there also shalt thou see a horse’s ass. And sometimes more than one of them, too.
The endless pearl-clutching in the national media over Orange Julius Caesar doing exactly what we all expected he would do has me longing to grab some button-down editor a little lower — by the family jewels — and drag him around the room, growling like a mad dog.
Which of course is what I am.
But that would be wrong. Fun, but wrong.
So I’ll just leave you with that improbable visual and this all-too-probable audio — yes, yes, yes, it’s time for a Shakespearean edition of Radio Free Dogpatch.

Seems to me Stanley Kubrick could have written the screenplay for this cluster fuck.
More of a Coen Brothers feel to it, don’t you think?
They always get it right.
We’ve been trying to figure out what “qualifies” a person to serve in the new administration. First off, complete loyalty. Brown nose all the way. Beyond that it’s a little tough to figure out. Today’s news suggests that participating in, or supporting sexual abuse is a plus. Dr. Oz, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., and Linda McMahon suggest that celebrity helps. Elonia and a few others show that lots of donation money helps.
So in an effort to predict future picks, we need to ask who is insanely loyal to the Orange Cheetoh, plus has some involvement in sexual abuse, plus is a celebrity, plus has donated lots of money. I think he’s running low on candidates that hit all four buttons, so he’ll start falling back on big donors.
I’m hoping he appoints our own hometown fascist, Sedition Scott Perry, to something, so we get him out of our district, but that’s probably overly optimistic. Perry only hits the first mark.
On a related note, I’ve been asked to come up with a nickname for RFK Jr. Can anyone suggest some good ones?
Is Harvey Weinstein available for service? How about Louis C.K.? Incidentally, Linda McMahon has a few pervy skeletons in her closet, too. Wotta house of horrors. Or is it “house of whores?” If you talk really fast they sound about the same.
As for RFK Jr., how about Marco Polio? That’s a riff on a meme Herself showed me the other day.
Shitbird has crossed a line now. This is just wrong, and anyone who would buy this cheap knockoff shit is just stupid. I hope Gibson sues his ass.

Plus, the photo looks faked. A.I.? Photoshop? Too bad Jimi Hendrix isn’t around to set that shitbox on fire.
You’re right. It’s faked. I’m thinking the guitar was added to an existing image. Or, the wholes thing is faked, and not very well.
It’s a pisser when you have to be suspicious of everything you see, hear, or read. Welcome to the wonderful world of the copy editor!
