Boebert Unplugged

Her communications director has resigned! We are about to get this iconic American voice unfiltered, and UD cannot wait.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (not to be confused with Lorena Bobbitt) is an American original, a tax-noncompliant, QAnon-slinging, gun-slinging, rumored insurrectionist. Boebert is the embodiment of the Capitol-Trashers: Multiple arrests for violent behavior (to be fair, not all of it was her; some of it was her two big pit bulls), refusal to show up in court, violent hatred of authority, general propensity to violence. Boebert tweeted Nancy Pelosi’s movements during the insurrection.

A glance at Boebert’s impressive rap sheet reveals l’essence de Capitol-Trasher lifestyle: Nasty dustups with hubby when they both get a little, uh, hot under the collar; fights with neighbors; fights with cops; Defiant Oppositional Disorder when people request that she take her guns out of their face. Cap-Trash lifestyle means looking to pick a fight while bombing around in your pickup, Barrett M107s bouncing in the bed, pit bulls howling. That’s our Lauren; and why you wouldn’t want to be her communications director I have no idea but anyway she ain’t got one no more and hon LET. IT. RIP.

Limerick

Some hotels might consider it jolly

To welcome Trump-gunfire volleys.

We might be called Loews

But that’s too low to go.

Let another hotel welcome Hawley.

Apparently the Pentagon, in an Unprecedented Move, has Refused to Give Trump a Military Send-off.

A reader sends this to UD, from Defense One:

The Pentagon, in a break with recent tradition, will not host an Armed Forces Farewell tribute to President Donald Trump. 

It’s a shame, but not a surprise. Trump will leave office in disgrace, one week after the House voted a second time for his impeachment, two weeks after his supporters staged a deadly siege in the Capitol Building, six months after he dragged his Joint Chiefs chairman into a political firestorm, and after four years of nonstop assaults on truth.

The military doesn’t … want Mr Fuckface.

Mr Fuckface, you see, is like the gannet – one doesn’t want it, because it wets its nest.

“American Thinker” (the least appropriate name imaginable for a mindless rag) has admitted that EVERYTHING multiple AT writers published about Dominion Voting Systems was completely made up.

They’re really really sorry! It was a grave error… completely false…no evidence… no basis in fact and as a special offer just for you if you don’t sue us for a billion dollars the way you’re suing Sidney our managing editor will come to Toronto and go down on at least one and no more than three designated Dominion employees.

Please do not punish us for extensively publishing sick lies that led directly to a fatal insurrection which has damaged the United States of America beyond description! We meant well.

‘The easiest way out of the self-pardon dilemma would be for Trump to make a deal with Mike Pence, under which he would resign before leaving office and Pence would grant him a pardon. Unfortunately for Trump, Pence is still sore about the whole “whipping up a paramilitary mob to lynch him” episode.’

BWAHAHAHAHAHA

‘[I]f Trump can’t make money luring customers to watch him do the “Lock them up” chant and dance to “Macho Man,” and he can’t do the hard work of launching a lucrative media brand, then he’s back to giving away his rants for free on other peoples’ networks.’

LOLolololololllllloooollll

Hey! We all knew the NRA was Bankrupt.

But now it’s … BANKRUPT!

“Trump plans to hold unprecedented military ‘farewell event’ on Inauguration Day with a 21-gun salute, color guard and martial music when he boards Air Force One for final flight to Mar-a-Lago”

Dress rehearsal.

Cleveland Meredith Has it All.

Fifth-generation Atlantan, handsome, beautiful family, rich, fancy private school (he’s been banned from its grounds for threatening to kill someone who came to speak there), and then the incomparably beautiful Sewanee/University of the South for college, where he got a degree in economics.

Meredith is also a “habitual drug user and has a history of mental illness,” plus a history of threats against women (or, in his nomenclature, ‘cunts’), plus a history of general violence. Plus immense numbers of guns.

And ain’t it the beauty of the United States that a man like this, a deeply disturbed and violent man, with the insane political fanaticism and insane conspiracy theories that accompany his profile, has had no trouble at all… will never have any trouble… amassing a personal arsenal more than worthy of the terrifying terrorist that he is.

You can thank the National Rifle Association for many, many of the Cleveland Merediths pissing and shitting all over the Capitol building on January 6, hauling their rifles into the seat of the American government and killing and threatening to kill people. You can also thank Fuckface for enticing Cleveland Meredith out of his cage.

The question is how to put him back in. It’s going to be difficult.

******************

The January 6 insurrection was better planned and better armed than we first believed. The mob was not a bunch of yahoos, but often middle-class, well-educated professionals, integrated with trained former military and cops.

I’m sorry. You can’t be here.

A Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives introduced a resolution on Thursday permanently banning President Donald Trump from entering the U.S. Capitol Complex after he leaves office.

The president’s best buddy sings his valedictory song for him.

All sources indicate Fuckface is now a man of constant sorrow. Just like his old friend.

Example of a Strong Lede

An Americus (Georgia) lawyer who entered the U.S. Capitol with hordes of fellow Donald Trump supporters last week said they were protesting an election purloined by rogue elements of the Italian military using Vatican satellites to change Trump votes into Joe Biden votes on American voting machines.

We have followed Adrian Vermeule on this blog for some time.

Vermeule (scroll down) is a standard-issue Trumpian who continues gassing on about election fraud. He is a theocrat – I mean, a real one, as in he wants the United States ruled by Jesus, and, if Jesus doesn’t want the job, by His designated ayatollahs. We can anticipate that these would include the much-laureled Josh Hawley, plus, well, Adrian Vermeule.

Vermeule’s one peculiar distinction is that he’s a Harvard law professor; and it turns out that more than a few of his students are now officially really really creeped out to be in the same room with the dude in various required classes. UD is all for these students complaining about him; indeed, intellectual self-respect rather demands that his students make a public statement of some sort about the odd fact of their being taught, at the nation’s greatest university, by an off-the-charts anti-democratic fanatic.

No punishment allowed, of course; Vermeule finds himself a tenured Harvard professor and fine. But squawking about the obscenity of having to endure the presence of a freak who wants to destroy your country – excellent.

‘He’s not going back to New York and he is not going to enjoy the comfort at Mar-a-Lago he would have in the pre-Capitol-ransacking world,’ retired Brigadier General Peter Zwack, a former Army intelligence officer, [said].’

Pre-Capitol-ransacking world is very nice – has a cool visigothic vibe.

And as to where he’ll end up – I’m on record putting him one suite over from foully disgraced King Juan Carlos in Abu Dhabi, an ultra-luxurious location that will happily inhale the vilest human stink as long as it has money fluttering after it.
