Beware: The GOP Has Chosen to Embrace the Crazy
Today, however, the core of the Republican Party has gone so far beyond the fringe that they would boo Goldwater s right-wingism as insuf ficiently rabid. Instead, their new rallying cry is: “Nuttiness in the defense of extremism is no vice.”The GOP as a whole has mutated from a con servative party with some extremist factions to effectively proclaiming itself the Party of Ex tremism. Its mainline officialdom (governors, congressional leaders, state reps, judges, party chairs, et al.) are no longer just winking at such antidemocratic, far-right groups as neo-Confed erates, paranoid “replacement” theorists, seces sionists and QAnon cultists — they are openly embracing the crazy. Hoping to enlist the raw political fervor of dogmatic rightists, local, state and national Republican establishments are mainstreaming the extreme: Parroting many of those groups’wilder claims, adopting their code words and endorsing their adherents for elected and appointed offices. And, of course, all of this fanatical horsepower is quietly being hitched to the party’s true purpose of entrenching the supremacy of corporate and moneyed elites. Now, this embrace the crazy extremism is about to erupt in the GOP’s presidential pri mary, for a whole covey of these cooing right-wingers have fantasies of taking the groups’ radical agenda to the White House. All of them are trying to out-extreme each other with raw meat bigotry and autocratic posturing, but two wannabes have emerged as both the most bullish and bullying: Greg Abbott of Texas and Ron DeSantis of Florida For months, these big state governors have been locked in a far-right kook-off including outlawing free speech, banning books, vi ciously attacking immigrants, preempting local elections and governments and denying health care to poor people. Bear in mind that Abbott and DeSantis are not merely pontificating, pos turing and promising what they might do in the White House; as governors they’re actually practicing it right now! I don’t know if Abbott and DeSantis are the worst that the GOP will try to put in the Oval Office in 2024, but please pay attention now, for today’s Republican elites intend to pull our de mocracy down into the plutocratic, autocratic and theocratic maelstrom they are creating.
In the 1990s, the sharp-witted Texan and re nowned progressive writer Molly Ivins regaled (and appalled) readers with her reports on the tragicomic awfulness of George W. Bush’s two terms as the Lone Star State’s governor. His ten ure was notable for his deep ignorance, frat-boy arrogance and flagrant servility to corporate in terests. But those very qualities made Amer ica’s moneyed powers decide that — Wow! — wouldn’t he make a dandy president? Molly warned the general public about the folly of that choice, but in the 2000 race, W’s patrons stuffed him with money, buffed him up with a glossy coat of PR Shinola, pulled off a flagrant post-election political heist in Florida … and squeegeed him, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft and that whole regime of horrors into office. This is when the GOP began to embrace the crazyMany Americans soon began expressing as tonishment at how shallow, imperious, and dan gerous Bush & Co. were proving to be, leading Molly to say with a heavy sigh: “Next time I tell you someone from Texas should not be presi dent of the United States, please pay attention.”
The Hightower Lowdown JIM HIGHTOWER The situation is uniquely American… and it goes all the way to the top. There’s only one way to change things... but while you’re waiting, enjoy your freedom.
Don’t look now, but another Texas guberna torial goober, named Greg Abbott, is coming at you, insisting that he should be your next presi dent. Sadly, Molly is gone, but I knew her well enough that I think I can speak for her on this matter of national import: “Oh, hell no!” Excuse the redundancy here, but right-wing extremism has become extremely extreme, and Abbott is vying to be the “extremiest” of all. A clue to his loopiness is his vituperative anti-abortion absolutism, forcing victims of rape to give birth to their rapists’ spawn. Not a problem, proclaimed Abbott, for he’s the Lone Star Wizard. He declared that he intends to go out and arrest all rapists — get this — before they rape Abbott,anyone!agovernor with no talent for govern ing, has run up a record noted for spectacular program failures, corporate bootlicking, widen ing inequality, corruption, political buffoon ery… and so awful much more. If that’s your idea of a president, there he is Perhaps you remember Sen. Barry Goldwater, the GOP’s fringy, far-right-wing 1964 presidential nominee who famously said, “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice.”

“Today, almost two years after that fateful day in January 2021... Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are [still] a clear and present danger to American democracy That's not because of what happened on January 6th. It's be cause, to this very day, the former presi dent, his allies, and supporters pledge that, in the presiden tial election of 2024, if the former president or his anointed suc cessor as the Repub lican Party presidential candidate were to lose that elec tion, that they would attempt to overturn that 2024 election in the same way that they attempted to overturn the 2020 election, but succeed in 2024 where they failed in 2020. I don't speak those words lightly.”

It is clear DeSantis has his eye on the 2024 presidential campaign. He may have competition, however, including Texas Gov Greg Abbott. Obviously miffed, the Lone Star State governor said, “I invited you to the bor der, but you didn’t invite me to your shindig.” Abbott is understandably unhappy, but the apparent snub did not surprise anyone. Said one observer, “DeSantis sees Abbott as a rival for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination. It’s bound to get a little catty!

Anti-Abortionists Face Supernatural Crisis By Diane de Anda An anonymous source has leaked informa tion about a major crisis among leaders of the anti-abortion movement. It appears that Satan was so pleased with their success that he visited and impregnated several of the movement’s most vociferous advocates. Because these women oppose abortion based on their strong religious beliefs, they are now completely conflicted. As religious indi viduals, they do not want to carry and give birth to a demon child. However, since the unborn was conceived from a human ova, and they believe any unborn baby is a person with the right to life from the moment of conception, abortion is not an op tion. They now concede that they may be forced to bring evil into the world. A secret meeting was convened to discuss the options. The argument that they were im pregnated without consent was not viable, it was decided, because the group has taken the position that abortion cannot be allowed in cases of rape and incest as it is still murder One idea was to say that since Satan is not human, the unborn is not really human, so the charge of murder would not apply. However, it was pointed out that the creature is a hybrid, and the devil had made sure it took a human form. If the ultrasound photos were leaked, it would kill the movement’s credibility One of the women shocked the group when she revealed that she had already had a D&C for her “fibroids.” As the others gasped, she yelled, “It’s easy to judge when it’s not happen ing to you,” and left the room. Marjorie Dannenfelser, the force behind the Susan B. Anthony List anti-abortion campaign, then revealed a supernatural event that she had Antichrist baby from “The Passion of Christ.”

Making fun of the headlines today, so you don’t have to By Paul Lander. All you need to do is follow one simple rule: barely pay attention and jump to conclusions. So, here are some headlines today and my first thoughts:
The President explains, “There are billions and billions of cases of K Rations left over from the war in Vietnam, just sitting in warehouses K Rations sustained our troops during the war in Vietnam and have a shelf life of 200 years. The MREs that the troops ate in Iraq and Af ghanistan last only about 10 years. “Each month, every American will get 30 cases of K Rations free. They come in wonder ful appetizing flavors such as Chopped Egg with Bacon, Chopped Bacon with Egg, Chopped Ham with Lima Beans and Chopped Lima Beans with Ham.” Each case also includes packs of cigarettes, packs of gum and packs of condoms. The president also stated that in case they run out of K Rations, he has cut a deal with General Dissen Datte, head of the Slobovian Army Mess System, to supply the American people with quantities of the Slobovian Army staple known as Gavonski Gavonski is syn thetic Creamed Chip Beef on Toast. The President also stated that to help the American people with preparation of K Ra tions, the Food Network will debut a new cook ing show featuring former Marine mess sergeant K.P Chowline

President Biden Offers New Solution to Rising Food Prices
By Ted Holland, Dispatches from SNN (Slobovian News Network) Hot on the heels of its controversial over turning of Roe v Wade, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) will hear a case on another decisive issue — that being the right of the unborn to bear arms. The case stems from an incident that hap pened in Boogaloo, Mississippi in 1987. On April 18 of that year, Mrs. Annette Funicello Pulp went to the West Chitlin County Health Clinic for a pelvic exam. At the time she was 21 weeks pregnant with twin boys. Sometime during the exam by Dr. Peter Panne, two gunshots rang out and Dr Panne was found dead on the floor. When Sheriff Lutha Spreadum arrived, he arrested Mrs. Pulp for murder, even though no gun was found and there was no direct evidence linking her to the shooting.Mrs.Pulp stated that Dr Panne was shot by one of her unborn boys, who became frightened and feared for his life. When a vaginal speculum was inserted into his previously sac rosanct home, he fired the shots.
The court building will be surrounded by po lice and marines during the entire trial, which is expected to be quite explosive. Demonstrators from all corners of the earth, both pro and con, are expected to descend on Washington. Some of the presiding justices have already received death threats, a few from the unborn.
SCOTUS to Debate the Gun Rights of the Unborn
Senator Collins Buys Brooklyn Bridge
By Steve Schneider Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis joined a Proud Boys protest in South Florida last night, as members picketed outside a Miami Beach drag club. The probable 2024 presi dential candidate said he joined the picket line because of a “disgusting video that was made at a Texas drag club.”
As onlookers watched, the governor and Proud Boys chanted, “We’re Proud. We’re Here. Get Used to It.” Despite the chant, morally questionable people entered the club, according to “African American” billion aire Elon Musk, live-tweeting the event. A member from The Birdcage movie cast joined in on Twitter Gene Hackman, who played a politically ambitious conservative Senator in The Birdcage, tweeted, “I wish Ron the best. I really do. But someone needs to give the guy a pedicure or a chilled glass of Chardonnay.”

Boris Johnson ‘deceived Queen and has re signed’ Well, in fairness, they’re not really Queen since Freddy Mercury died. Elon Musk pulled out of Twitter deal …Something he’s clearly not used to doing!
Famous Chitlin Rights attorney Shimmy Shuffle Downe took up Mrs. Pulp’s case and in troduced Forensic evidence that revealed gun powder residue in her vagina. Her first trial ended in a hung jury as did 17 more trials over the following 25 years. When her twins were born, the boys, now named Elvis and Elton, were charged with mur der and pleaded self-defense. They stated that the piece of medical equipment inserted into their mother looked like a bulldozer coming to get them. Their attorney, Oliver Wendell Grunt, asserted the rights of the unborn to take lethal action when their lives were in danger, siting “stand your ground” laws. Eight trials of the twins have ended in hung juries and two have ended in riots. Mississippi State Attorney General Big Mama Thornton Jones will argue the state’s case while UCLA (University of Claptrappe in Lower Alabama) law professor Perry Mason Kudzu will handle the defense.
Critics of the Senator will undoubtedly differ with her advisor’s assessment. As one detractor noted: “You may recall that Sena tor Collins believed President Trump ‘learned his lesson’ after the first impeach ment trial.” When Trump went on to com mit a second round of impeachable offenses, Collins said, “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on you again.” In addition, the Senator cast a crucial vote for Justice Kavanaugh’s narrow confir mation, citing his assurances on Roe vs. Wade as precedent. However, Kavanaugh recently voted to overturn the decision, leaving Collins to make the following state ment to a group of reporters: “I feel misled, I’m all shook up.” She then performed an impressive rendition of Elvis Presley’s song by the same name. The Senator then excused herself. “I have to see a man about a bridge,” she said

She chased Ms. Dannenfelser throughout her house whacking her on the head with a protest sign that read “Protect All Women’s Rights.” The next day Susan B.

By Ted Holland, Dispatches from SNN (Slobovian News Network) In an exclusive interview with SNN finan cial correspondents Passe D.
