White-line fever

“I think I’ve seen this movie before. …” Photo by Thang Cao on Pexels.com

Good news! Americans weary of watching war in the desert (“Yawn … seen it!”) can change the channel to jungle combat as U.S. troops “advise” their counterparts in Ecuador.

Jaysis fuck, etc. Yanks just can’t stop lashing uncounted tonnage of “dumb dust” up their snouts, so we expand the War on Drugs to include “narco-terrorism” and start shipping Special Forces to Ecuador, which itself does not produce any nose whiskey but serves as a trafficking route.

I suppose it’s only a coincidence that what Ecuador does produce in quantity is — wait for it — oil.

Meanwhile, Sniffles the Clown keeps horning fat rails of Adderall to take his mind off that pepperoni pizza he’s baking on his neck, and that’s OK because he’s the Pestilence an’ shit, so keep it coming, bitches.

    1. Remember your Richard Pryor, from “Here and Now” (1983):

      I remember when America used to be that kind of country, right? We didn’t fuck with nobody. Now we be fuckin’ with people in El Salvador and shit. How we gonna lose? Thirty-five people in El Salvador. Right? We be sending advisors and shit, right? (Pantomimes shooting a suspect with a handgun) ”That’s how it goes, pal. Take my advice and do it that way.”

  1. I think that fella in the photo has a Livestrong band on his wrist. Sandy and I rode up to Kartchner Caverns State Park back in the Postal Service days, and when the ranger came put to collect our entrance fee, he had a yellow band on his wrist. We did too, and he let us in for free. When our friend Hank was fighting lung cancer, that Livestrong Notebook helped them out a lot. It really helped them navigate treatments and finances. That kinda squared up the cheating and being an asshole with us. That and the way he and George treated our high school mountain bike team at an event in Tucson, even after our team beat theirs. So, flame me mi amigos, I get it.

    1. Cuba has been blockaded by the US for weeks. No oil. No supplies. And now most of the country has no power. The invasion is probably days or hours away. Strange times we live in.

      1. Where’s Che when you need him? Out there, somewhere. …

        Wherever death may surprise us, it will be welcome, provided that this, our battle cry, reach some receptive ear, that another hand stretch out to take up weapons and that other men come forward to intone our funeral dirge with the staccato of machine guns and new cries of battle and victory. — Ernesto “Che” Guevara, in a message to the Latin American Conference of Solidarity

      1. The graft, corruption, and incompetence in DHS is beyond belief. Noem’s pompous conceit, arrogance, narcissism, and incompetence is second only to that of donny dainty digits.

  2. J.B. Weld, or is it J.D. Vance (all I know is his lips are indeed welded to tRumps ass) isn’t too pleased with the Iran bombing I hear tell. Ya think he sees the 2028 nomination slipping through his greasy fingers? Or even if he gets it he knows he’ll lose biggly as his Master would say.

  3. Loyalty, a one way street for him by the way, is what got him there. But, there is plenty of room under the bus. Probably end up on the peace board. The killings will not be investigated. Does anyone here think Mullin will get confirmed by the Senate? So, much winning. At least Pedro told dumpster to piss off.

  4. I think psobrien is right. The Rump isn’t really in charge anymore. DHS immigration policy won’t change no matter who they put in the seat, because Steven Miller is the one in charge of that. Cuba will get invaded if they need the distraction, but none of the billionaire cronies benefit from regime change in Cuba, so it will only happen if the handlers like Miller and Wiles need to distract either Lord TinyFingers or the public. The more attention is turned to the graft and corruption, the more distractions there will be.

    1. Lil’ Marco wants Cuba bad, but I don’t think anyone in the admin or out of it gives a rusty fuck what that little weasel wants.

      Prince Maybelline is keeping his biscuit hole buttoned lately. I assume he thinks he can keep the antiwar/”Mordor First” MAGAs that way come 2028.

      Neither of these peacocks packs the gear to rule a cult.
