The Morning Report 10/5/17
Good morning kids. As we head into Thursday, bits and pieces of the motive for the Las Vegas massacre are starting to trickle out. The sheriff has openly suggested that there may have been more than just one shooter, the girlfriend has claimed she has no idea that he was going to do what he did and supposedly he targeted the aviation fuel tanks that were adjacent to the concert grounds. You'll be happy to know that our fearless media has uncovered the motive: the shooter was white.
Of course, the grandstanding hacks and moral midgets in DC are going for the guns; most shockingly (or not, really, when you think about it) some in the GOP are going wobbly as well. What-the-actual-F**K; I mean, here we are, with majorities in both houses and holding the Oval Office, a political third rail to end all third rails, science, statistics, reason, history, the friggin' US Constitution and 200 million legal, responsible gun owners to back us up and McYertle meat-puppet John Cornyn is stuttering and muttering about a possible bump-stock ban. For the love of all that is righteous and good, will no one who is putatively on our side in the Senate or Congress rise and shut these tyrants up once and for all? You've sold us out on healthcare, the budget, prosecuting the IRS and other bureaucratic tyrants and laughing at us while you do it. But on the Second Amendment, is it too much to ask to reject the propaganda and fight?! I guess it is.
There is other news. In brief, and just as maddening, some sea-slug with the intellectual agility of a soap dish named Richard Burr, who heads the Senate committee investigating the Russia collusion hoax declared that despite the lack of any sort of evidence, they're still going to investigate Russian collusion. Senator, please understand that the entire investigation is based on a fabricated dossier. Spurious, phony, fake, fraudulent, made up. And still, you persisted.
Well at least we have Lindsay Graham and Dick Durbin cuddling and cooing together and ready to push for the return of the full DREAM Act. And we can also cheer on our betters in Congress because for the 60th straight year, the national debt has increased!
On a sad note, we also note the deaths of three special forces soldiers who were ambushed while on ops in Niger. Sadly, your lives were sacrificed for the likes of Colin Kaepernick and Black Lives Matter who would have no qualms about defecating on your graves.
Lastly, this is a few days old but I felt compelled to include it; two hideous degenerates from Massachusetts, disguised as Congressmen, Katherine Clark and Seth Moulton did not respect the moment of silence in the House for the victims of the Las Vegas massacre. Instead of trying to describe the flavor of my bile as it rises in my throat, it will be noted that this Moulton bastard has aspirations for the Democrat nomination in 2020. The ads will write themselves, and let's just leave it at that before I have to ban-hammer myself.
Anyway, links from around the world, across the nation and up your street. Have a better one and remain blessed.
