Crime & Punishment & Related Tidbits

Much of the news reported at the places I look for news is depressing, which is to be expected since nearly everything concerns crap that Trumplicans are involved in. Here's a short list of things that got my attention since Monday:

Steve Bannon, who looks like an overweight escapee from a garbage dump, checked in to make his arrest official, and did the predictable song-and-dance routine with a little phony macho man belligerence thrown in for extra flavor. These made-for-TV camera performances are always intended to create an impression that the persons being arrested just got the big wins they were aiming for. In this case, gullible mainstream media reporting suggests foolishness like "Bannon's arrest spells trouble for Democrats."

Another bad actor in the January 6th insurrection is known on the Internet as QAnon Shaman, that weird lunatic who showed up in face paint and some type of horned headdress. He just received a sentence of 41 months in the hoosegow. 

Trumplicans in Washington believe current economic trends will be a huge advantage for their so-called party in the midterm elections. To the extent that a prolonged COVID pandemic is a drag on the economy, Trumplicans are doing everything possible to extend COVID misery and make life worse for middle America - more predictable conduct. A careful look at where Trumplicans are headed makes it obvious they want to replace American democracy with fascist authoritarianism. Even when they were still plain old Republicans, those assholes opposed anything that would improve life for a majority of Americans.

Rep. Paul Gosar, an Arizona Trumplican, is a specimen of human depravity whose existence was obscure until Dimito Assolini lost the 2020 election. Gosar then appeared on the media circuit as one of the turds hawking the Big Lie that the election was stolen. Since the 1/6 domestic terrorism, Gosar has competed with Empty Greene and Bim Boebert for recognition as the most disgusting Assolini butt sniffer. Today he's been censured by the House for gross misconduct, and will be removed from committee assignments.
