Of survivors, babies, & liars, or, just another day in the GOP

 Later this afternoon, the House of Representatives will vote for the next Speaker of the House, a week after Rusty Gaetz and his idiot squad decided Kevin McCarthy was no longer fit for the job after averting a government shutdown.

A secret vote earlier revealed that Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise, who was nearly assassinated while prepping for a charity baseball game 7 years ago, and has been battling cancer, was the GOP's choice. Hey, when the other option is Fibber Jordan, well......! Scalise, who once likened himself to KKK leader David Duke, is still a nice comeback story after what he's been through.

However, Gaetz's rebels, including Ohio's Max Miller and Colorado airhead Lauren Gropert (yep, that's her new name after the "Beetlejuice: The Musical" debacle) are vowing to support Jordan. I don't think it's going to work this time.
===================================================
Forbes amended its list of the 400 richest people the other day, and Donald Trump's name is not on it.

Of course, Diaper Don's having a tantrum about it.


"WWAAHHHHH!!! They owe me an apology! I belong on the list! WAAAAHHHHH!"

What Trump did reveal is that Forbes is currently owned by a Hong Kong-based entity, but the latest word is that an American group is looking to obtain majority ownership. A lifetime of lies is coming back to haunt the Archduke of Affluenza, and he ain't digging.

More Trump: Fraud Fauntleroy and his faithful Gal Friday, Empty-G, are spreading conspiracy theories about Hamas allegedly sneaking across the Southern border, when there's no evidence to support their claims. Hamas has enough issues with their current war with Israel without the Ugly Americans adding fuel to the fire. Worse, Dumb Donald is claiming none of this would be happening if he were still president (yeah, right), and he's also falsely claiming that former President Barack Obama is running the show behind the scenes for Joe Biden (he's not).

All the lies are meant to distract supporters from the myriad of legal issues facing the Annoying Orange. Bellevue is still waiting for him.
==============================================
NY Misrepresentative Pinocchio Santos is facing more charges, 23 in all this time, of crimes such as identity theft. Other NY GOPers want him gone (can you blame them?), but he refuses to concede. Well, Dumb Donald is a role model to him, and, well.........!

Like, if they really wanted a liar in Congress, actor David Leisure, who became a pop culture icon as Joe Isuzu in the 80's before doing ads for the Yellow Pages and starring in Empty Nest, could've filled the bill.
