The Morning Rant

That whiny-ass Sting tune from the 80s, Russians, captures this phenomenon perfectly, only he's doing it ironically. If the KGB *paid* Sting to write that crap song, it wouldn't be any different than it actually is.

That was then, this is now.

Trump is being vociferously attacked for calling a virus that orignated in China a Chinese virus. My favorite line is, it's not a Chinese virus, it's a human virus. A lot of social media journalists and other Trump haters are working very hard carrying the ChiCom's water. In fact, there's not a dime's worth of difference between our garbage MSM's coverage of the Wuhan Virus and China's Xinhua News Agency or Global Times right now.

Back in the 80s, it all revolved arounding hating Reagan. And now, it all revolves around hating Trump. Even if it means aiding those who are trying to destroy us.

Just once, I would like to see the MSM actually supporting America instead of acting as propagandists for the other side.

But some things never change.

Focusing On What's *Really* Important:

It’s outrageous that selfish bigots with life-threatening infections are displacing stunning and brave trans people waiting for cosmetic surgery. We need a moratorium on treating straight white cismales who have covid-19 until this injustice is addressed. https://t.co/jOuXcwG0Od

And Now Here Comes the "I Was Just Joking" Walk-Back:

ANYONE who thought I was wishing COVID on Melania is fuckwit.

You know full well it was a riff on "BeBest" and it's utter failure in the face of her husband's continued role as Global Troll in Chief and National Bully.

That said, fap to your fake-ass outrage all you like.

To the Rescue!

Who Dis:

For the 'Ettes:

Wednesday's celebs: The quintessential 20s flapper chick, Louise Brooks, who starred in the classic film from 1929, Pandora's Box with Francis Lederer. Brooks' movie career fizzled during the 1930s and she eventually slid into alcoholism and prostitution. She had some success as a movie writer when her films were rediscovered in the 1950s.
