...and how would you like this done?

So... in Venezuela, Juan Guaido, a rightist "opposition" leader who'd never actually run in the recent Presidential election, just out of nowhere declares himself "Interim President" and swears himself in, and the US is apparently ready to support this doorknob in a coup attempt against Nicolas Maduro, a Bolivarist who actually ran for President, won the election, and was actually sworn in as the actual President this past week.

Just so we're clear on that, folks, next time CNN or somebody drops another "bombshell" about the Russians "meddling" in our "elections".

Speaking of which, why the hell didn't Hillary think of this? Why didn't she just swear herself in? Cripes, she wouldn't quit screaming about how she won the goddamn popular vote; why couldn't she rustle up Lawrence Lessig or Laurence Tribe or one of those other Harvard Law knobs to administer the oath and just swear her own insufferable ass in?

Emoluments, 25th Amendment, Russia, bah! Have Ruth Bader Ginsburg swear her in on a copy of In Takes A Village, get Macron, May, and a couple of other EU neoliberal Blue Meanies to recognize her, and badda-bing, El Presidente.

You Can't Silence...

With all the critical issues facing this country – the escalation of police violence; the continued highway robbery of the People by the likes of Amazon; the lack of hurricane relief for Puerto Rico; the lack of clean water in Flint, Michigan; the children dying in cages at the border – the first act of the US Senate this year was to introduce legislation that criminalized involvement with the BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement working to end the Israeli occupation and apartheid state in Palestine.

Those BASTARDS!

In the midst of all the manufactured Betomania, the Left has done nothing more than point out something that's a matter of pubic record – Beto O'Rourke's staggeringly less-than-progressive voting record – and the Democratic Party leadership is instantly filling every pair of BVD's in the dresser, screeching about being "attacked" by people who simply aren't buying into the empty hype over a guy who couldn't beat Ted Cruz.

The DNC elites bust their asses inside out to make this rich-ass old skater boy happen, and all the Left can do is to point out that his voting record sucks on toast. Dirtbags. What gall. How very dare they.
