TNB Night Owl — Snark Bites from All Over

Let’s get this party started!

Blake can have all the epiphanies he likes about what might and might not appeal to the voters. He can even have an actual change of heart. The thing is that he’s a member of a party that has made it abundantly clear they believe in being theocrats telling everyone else how to live their lives, while they themselves fail to live up to those same standards. It doesn’t matter what you do; you’re tied to the rest of the crazies in the GOP, you’re going to be painted with the same brush.

Laura Ingraham has some thoughts…

BTW, Laura has the most punchable face of any woman I’ve ever seen…

Meanwhile, Tim Scott insists Roe isn’t going to hurt R chances at all this November:

Somebody is either lying, delusional, or blind to what’s coming down the pike.

Bill Barr finally getting wise?

Bill, my man! Trump has NEVER given a single concern for how the party as a whole might fare during an election cycle. The only thing he cares about is the only thing he’s ever cared about: himself. So, of course he endorsed the candidates most willing to debase themselves to get his nod. He had no care if they were qualified or even sane. All that mattered was if they flattered him enough. Oh, and if they paid him enough…

Megyn Kelly…

You know what the difference between Dr. Fauci and Steve Bannon is? Fauci will show up and answer their questions, regardless of whatever grandstanding, self-serving nonsense Rs engage in. Just like he spent the last couple of years doing, Megyn. Where the fuck have you been, sister?

Jesse Watters, insisting the FBI planted evidence even though they didn’t…

And worse, he just shrugs off the notion that MAL could’ve easily been full of spies trying to get their hands on the documents Trump both had and didn’t have (since the FBI obviously planted them on him).

Maybe Trump shouldn’t take free legal advice from Tom Fitton.

I would’ve liked to have heard the next few seconds where this clip ended, about Trump using FedEx…

Also, for a guy who thought NARA should have Clinton’s tapes with a historian, it seems more than a little — problematic? hypocritical? — that Fitton told Trump he could keep all those documents he took.

It’s as if Fitton’s arguments depend on which team has the documents/tapes.

Everything the Ds are doing right and the Rs are doing wrong in one clip:

I can’t top that, so won’t even try. Perfection.

Not one of these people is worthy of serving in the White House…

Stephen Miller is kinda light on what the term “fascism” means…

It’s one thing for a semi-educated troll to misuse terms like socialism and fascism. But it’s just unforgiveable for a college-educated political wonk to not know the meaning of these words.

Shot; chaser… (The chaser is from 2019, but still relevant.)

As I like to say, without double standards, the GOP would have no standards at all…

As usual, this is an open thread, so feel free to discuss whatever you like in the comments below.

And remember, this Sunday’s noir film is “A Woman’s Vengeance.” You really, really, REALLY don’t want to miss this one! It’s based on the Aldous Huxley short story, “The Gioconda Smile.”
