    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 05/07/2024 - 07:14 AM

    In an interview with Mathew Littman of MeidasTouch, Rep. Ted Lieu had something to say to Democrats who are planning to stay home this important election year.

  • Watters: 'Trump Is Going To Come Out With A Prison Body'
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 05/07/2024 - 07:14 AM

    I hate to break it to Jesse Watters, but no amount of time in jail is ever going to give his buddy Trump a "prison body." On this Monday's Jesse Watters Primetime on Fox, Watters brought on attorney Katie Cherkasky to discuss Judge Merchan finally threatening Trump with jail time if he continues to violate the gag order, and Trump's whiny response outside of the courthouse, where he pretended he'd be happy to make a "sacrifice" and go to jail. Here's Watters once again helping Trump with his attacks on the jurors, and pretending that Trump would actually be getting some exercise other than golf-- which seems to be the only physical activity he gets right now, when he's not riding on a golf cart and has to walk a few steps to swing at a ball-- if he were locked up: WATTERS: This judge is really, really on the side of the prosecution, and apparently this thing's going to go on for weeks.

    Above, The Monkees perform, Gonna Buy Me A Dog. Harry Truman is alleged to have said that, “If you want a friend [in D. C.], get a dog.” We wonder if the NYTimes has one? Life on the Wicked Stage: Act 3 says that the NYTimes buried the lede. No More Mister Nice Blog posits that the NYTimes coverage of President Biden is more dangerous than the coverage of disgraced once-elected (kinda?), twice impeached, quintuply-indicted, 80-something-ily charged LOSER ex-prznit Stupid. Juanita Jean's looks into the diapers. A tweet that shows us it really is a cult. Bonus Track: Colossal gives us some art of the dog.

  • Donald Trump Threatens Us With A Good Time
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 05/07/2024 - 07:13 AM

    Donald Trump has been crying ever since his criminal hush money/election interference trial started as if he feels so privileged that he shouldn't be held accountable for his actions. So, we have to listen to him whine that he's under a gag order. The thing is, Lumpy feels that he should be able to lash out at witnesses to undermine the trial.

    Dear Amy: For the past 50 years, I have lied that I was in the military and served in Vietnam. I’m now 71. I want to come clean with my son/family. I ran away from a bad home life at 13 and lived on the streets. It was horrible. I was beaten up and sexually attacked.
