Charlie Kirk set up a booth at San Francisco State University on Tuesday. For those of you who have been spared, Charlie Kirk is a MAGA talking head, a podcaster. He’s pretty slick and has a large following but I don’t know if he’s a top-level Deceiver or simply one of the many, many MAGA regurgitating the MAGA talking points of the day.

It’s an article of MAGA dogma that colleges don’t allow conservative speakers as part of their plot to indoctrinate the young into more inclusive thinking. As a result, they like to go to colleges and “challenge the status quo.” Anyway, Kirk was under this pop-up tent that had been emblazoned with the words, “prove me wrong.” I laughed out loud. How could anybody do that? MAGA is a faith-based movement. In a debate, about the best anyone could offer are facts and verifiable evidence but the first rule of MAGA is to never trade in facts and verifiable evidence. They can’t. Facts and verifiable evidence work against their positions nearly every time.

Christians have a slogan: ‘God said it, I believe it, that settles it.’ The idea of the slogan has been co-opted by MAGA. ‘Trump said it, I believe it, that settles it.’ It really, really does not. The Felon is the Father of Lies. I’m pretty sure I’d want independent verification if he told me my own name.

Now, in fairness, NO faith-based position can withstand facts or evidence. It’s not what they’re about. The more extreme the faith-based movement, the more aggressively they fight back against facts, and MAGA is a very extreme movement. Curiously, MAGA is a “stealth” faith-based movement. They don’t seem to realize they ARE faith-based. But they absolutely are.

So Kirk is going from college to college picking up soundbites for his podcast. As presented, Kirk will always “win,” pretending to show the dysfunctional thinking of lefties who will try to present facts and evidence only to hit a wall with Kirk. Essentially, it’s a trick. It would be best if people would just walk past his booth and ignore him, leaving him sitting there all alone…

Mr. ‘Farts On The Deal’ really, really wants a Nobel Peace Prize. Obama got one and 47 has been jealous ever since. He thought his best chance was going to be in stopping Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. He was so sure he was going to end the war he promised his base that he would have the war solved before he was even inaugurated. Yet another promise made, yet another promise not kept.

His “solution” seemed to be rooted in asking Ukraine to simply surrender everything Putin had stolen. Ukraine doesn’t want to simply cede stolen land to their enemy so they weren’t on board. For his part, Putin wants it all. Yeah, he’s got stories about this and that, but he seems hellbent on restoring the old borders of the Soviet Union, starting in Ukraine.

47’s “great friend,” Putin, isn’t playing along. It’s almost as if Putin doesn’t care what 47 wants – any more than Netanyahu does. So Donny did what any Master Negotiator would do: he tucked tail and he walked away, defeated. He quit. He gave up. He got his ass handed to him. He will NOT be bringing peace to Russia/Ukraine and he will NOT be receiving a Nobel Peace Prize…

It seems to me that 47 keeps putting people in positions of power in an effort to prove MAGA elite are not nearly as stupid as they’re portrayed by thinking Americans. “Give them a chance to show their stuff,” he seems to think, “and they’ll impress everybody as much as they impress me. Perhaps to that end, he’s putting the guy who touted hydroxychloroquine to fight Covid-19, Steven J. Hatfill, to a top pandemic prevention role at HHS.

Like everybody else The Felon inflicts on us, this guy will no doubt prove just how stupid he really is. Donny will never understand. How can stupid recognize stupid? But the rest of us will know. I suspect it’s time to prepare for a new pandemic, brought to you by stubborn stupidity and pure incompetence…

I recently took a guess at what Kilmar Abrego-Garcia’s tattoos on his fingers meant. I had no idea. I was just guessing. I wasn’t exactly right. It turns out that tattoos are actually a fairly commonly tattooed set of pictograms. It means “Smoke weed, get high, love God, until you die.”

Yeah, my guess was off. It was STILL better than 47’s guess. He actually thinks the ‘M,’ the ‘S,’ the ‘1,’ and the ‘3’ were all, actually tattooed on Garcia’s fingers. That really is some deep-level stupid, right there. All he had to do to know, for sure, is to look at any other picture of Abrego-Garcia’s hand.

I didn’t know what the tats meant. I made a guess. I missed a little and felt I should add this update for clarity. Consequences, you know? 47 didn’t know, either. He made a guess, too. He missed a LOT and sentenced Abrego-Garcia to life imprisonment with no crime, no charge, no trial, no chance to defend himself. Unconscionable…

Hey, I think I understand something. According to MAGA faithful, Biden left us an economic mess. That’s one of those positions MAGA adopts as an article of faith. There are no actual measures that support the MAGA position on the topic. If one uses facts and verifiable evidence – which, of course, MAGA never does – it turns out the US had the strongest economy in the world the day Donny took over. If you’ll recall, the economy was so strong, 47 was taking credit for it.

I think the “mess” Biden left was that the economy was SO good, SO strong, it was going to be harder than Team Evil expected to crash the thing without people realizing it was, in fact, THEM crashing the thing. But make no mistake. This economic hardship is being brought to you by MAGA and it’s being brought to you on purpose…

Isn’t it amazing how Musk and his illegal DOGE are running around cutting food stamps and health care and financial aid to desperately poor people, but managed to NOT cut any of the funding that comes to him? Muck has $38 billion taxpayer dollars in government contracts and not ONE of them got cut?

Oh, it’s worse than that, too. He was also facing fines. LOTS of fines. BIG fines. In what can only be called a stunning coincidence – unless you call it what it REALLY is: corruption – the people pressing those fines ALL found themselves without a job. Muck used his official position to let himself off the hook for all of his failures and mistakes.

So… he savages the social safety net for YOU but manages to keep his own mouth firmly latched to the government teat in a never-ending flow of YOUR money into HIS pocket. It really IS amazing that so many billionaires – who somehow manage to avoid paying income taxes yet also take so much money from the government – all know that the economic problems facing this nation are caused by the people who do the work.

Billionaires telling you YOU have too much. Screw those guys. It’s time to eat the rich..
