It’s Monday…
President Shitshow’s public schedule for…
President Embarrassment is scheduled to embarrass us again at around 11 AM D.C. time, hosting former “rebel” (read: terrorist) turned President of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa, in the Golden House.
While that embarrassment is happening at 11, the Senate will maybe-possibly-we’ll-see vote on the deal today. Eight senators crossed over to make this thing even exist. Not because of principle. Because everyone is tired, and the shutdown is now eating into people’s patience, paychecks, and flights.
If you thought the spin was bad yesterday, this morning Independent Senator Angus King told the nation that “standing up to Donald Trump didn’t work,” which defies logic.

Now we move to Senator Jeanne Shaheen — who is not seeking re-election — out here doing her best Charlie Brown trusting Lucy with the football routine.
She says Democrats should just trust the Republicans on this deal because she’s been told “trust me, bro.”
Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're… pic.twitter.com/xV6x9ahTzW

And then her daughter, who is running for Congress, had to clarify that trust falls with the GOP don’t have a great track record.
Improving health care has been the cause of my life. It’s why I am running for congress. So I cannot support this deal when Speaker Johnson refuses to even allow a vote to extend health care tax credits. My statement: pic.twitter.com/UPdGXcb6wb

And because the timeline refuses to give us even five minutes to breathe, President Embarrassment also shared a meme claiming that Barack Obama gets $2.5 million a year in “Obamacare royalties.”
This originated from The Dunning–Kruger Times.
A website that literally describes itself as satire.
Here it is in full; typically I would not share someone else’s full story but I think it’s warranted in this case.

About Satire
Before you complain and decide satire is synonymous with “comedy”:
sat·ire ˈsaˌtī(ə)r noun: The use of humor, irony, exaggeration, OR ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
Everything on this website is fiction. It is not a lie and it is not fake news because it is not real. If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined. Any similarities between this site’s pure fantasy and actual people, places, and events are purely coincidental and all images should be considered altered and satirical. See above if you’re still having an issue with that satire thing.

About Taters
“Taters” are the conservative fans of America’s Last Line of Defense. They are fragile, frightened, mostly older caucasian Americans. They believe nearly anything. While we go out of our way to educate them that not everything they agree with is true, they are still old, typically ignorant, and again — very afraid of everything.
Our mission is to do our best to show them the light, through shame if necessary, and to have a good time doing it, because…old and afraid or not, these people are responsible for the patriarchy we’re railing so hard against. They don’t understand logic and they couldn’t care less about reason. Facts are irrelevant. BUT…they do understand shame.

About the Money (from the owner)
Things here at ALLOD have evolved over the years. There have been times when there has been a boatload of money made, and times of extreme famine. In general, this is a lucrative enterprise. As for the morality, what the fuck ever. I own a bunch of stuff, I’ve been building it for years, it makes me a nice living. Don’t like it? I don’t care. I’m all done trying to justify to libtaters why my work is allowed to be profitable. My tater audience is a commodity. Just ask Facebook. I won’t be apologizing. To anyone.

Then we got this little gem about air traffic controllers.
Trump floated giving a $10,000 “bonus” to controllers who stayed on the job during the shutdown. You know. As a one-time “thanks for not letting planes fall out of the sky while we were doing performative government collapse.”
Everyone else who was furloughed:
“Good luck.
There is no plan.
There is only vibes, patchwork, and the faint hope that gravity remains optional.
In might be the only positive spin on the deal D’s made with senate cult members aka Republicans…

SCOTUS did agree to hear a case on ballot counting.
Which means we will now spend the next several months listening to “election integrity” people explain math they can’t do.
The Supreme Court did grant review of one case today, Watson v. Republican National Committee, and it's a big one over state laws allowing the counting of ballots cast by Election Day but received after then.
