    All it takes is his refusing to obey the summons. Unlike the rest of us, dragging him off to jail in shackles is not an option, but even Donald Duck cannot refuse the supreme court without ending up dead or in shackles. If he defies the supreme court, all the kid gloves come off. Either we have rule of law, or its time to start applying for refugee status in Canada. Personally, I'd love nothing better than to give the asshole Texas and Arizona, then watch the Mexican cartels have fun with them.

    Oh no, time's up baby! The State Dept has already announced that its open Duck Hunting Season. Sometime within the next year Donald Duck will either show up in court, or start jumping through hoops and defying them to take him away in shackles. He moved to Florida, knowing damned well NY would never give him a break, but in Florida he can buy anyone he wants, and defy NY to extradite him. The Duck is as predictable any lowlife gets, and only idiots who believe the mass media and think they are smarter than the rest are ever confused by him.

    Hopefully, he pushes it all the way to the supreme court, so everyone can remind their conservative judges that justice is the last thing they enforce.

    New York mother, son arrested in theft of Pelosi staff's laptop during Capitol riot

    excerpt:

    "ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A New York mother and son have been charged with theft in aiding the disappearance of a laptop belonging to the staff of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi during the Jan. 6 riot after the FBI initially raided a home 4,500 miles away in Alaska, looking for the computer.

    The FBI on Friday arrested Maryann Mooney-Rondon, 55, and her son, Rafael Rondon, 23, of Watertown, New York, in connection with the stolen laptop used only for presentations, according to court documents. Both also face other charges related to the riot at the Capitol."

    Rafael Rondon also faces possession of an unregistered sawed-off shotgun charge

    Both appeared in federal court Friday in Syracuse, New York, and released pending further proceedings, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York.

    Trump thought the White House's top Russia expert was a secretary and called her 'darlin' during a meeting: book

    excerpt:

    "Hill said she wanted to interject and voice her concerns but that Trump was primarily interested in putting out a press release about the call.

    "He had no interest in the substance at all, just the fact that he had a 'good' call with Putin and that Ivanka and Jared had agreed. The whole thing was slightly surreal," Hill wrote. She added that Trump asked her to type up changes he wanted made to the press release, but Hill didn't initially realize he was talking about her.

    "Suddenly he was practically yelling — 'Hey, darlin', are you listening? Are you paying attention?'" Trump said to Hill, according to the book. "The president clearly thought I was part of the Executive Secretariat ... He wanted me to type up the revised press release."

    Hill wrote that she had "no idea" she would be asked to do the task and felt flustered by the request, while Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner "had thought I was rude" by not immediately answering the president.

    She said that being mistaken for a secretary became an "occupational hazard," writing, "Trump essentially thought everyone at the National Security Council was a secretary in one form or another.""

    The line between satire by Borowitz and GOP reality is becoming increasingly fuzzy.


    Republicans Protest Lack of Rioters on January 6th Commission
    By Andy Borowitz
    July 22, 2021

    Republicans Protest Lack of Rioters on January 6th Commission

    excerpt:

    "WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Casting a dark cloud over the select committee investigating the January 6th insurrection, congressional Republicans protested, in no uncertain terms, the panel’s “utter lack of rioters.”

    Leading the charge was House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who called the commission “little more than a gussied-up festival of anti-riot propaganda.”

    “Nancy Pelosi’s handpicked Democratic panel members all have one thing in common: none of them took part in the riot,” McCarthy said. “Without an equal number of rioters on the panel, we’ll never get to hear both sides of this thing.”

    McCarthy said that he had drawn up a list of potential rioters to serve on the commission, including the “QAnon Shaman,” Jake Angeli.

    “I’ve spoken to the Shaman, and he’s up for it,” McCarthy said. “He just got his fur pelts dry-cleaned.”

    The House Minority Leader warned Pelosi against proceeding with the commission if it had no rioter representation. “It could have a chilling effect on all future riots,” he said."

    Donald Duck is a Wanted Man in Tehran, and Interpole doesn't give a crap about how much money he has. The current Professional Wrestling match has steadily painted him into a corner, where the state of Texas will have to secede from the union, to stop them from convicting him.

    Fun is fun, and many Americans appear to think a riot and attempts to kill their senators is fun, but Donald Duck is about to be roasted, or I suggest stocking up on ammo.

    The location of Scavino is unknown.


    Committee investigating January 6 riot unable to serve Trump aide days before subpoena deadline - CNNPolitics

    excerpt:

    "Washington (CNN)More than a week after subpoenaing former Donald Trump aide Dan Scavino to cooperate with its investigation into the January 6 riot at the US Capitol, the House select committee investigating the attack has been unable to physically serve the subpoena to him, according to multiple sources familiar with the effort.

    The news comes just days before the committee's deadline for Scavino and three other close allies of the former President to comply with subpoenas requesting documents by October 7 and a deposition by October 15.

    Scavino, Trump's former White House deputy chief of staff, did not respond to CNN's request for comment. One source familiar with the situation joked that the committee should just tweet the subpoena to the former Trump aide since he's been actively trolling the panel there in recent days.

    The other Trump aides who have been subpoenaed include former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, former adviser Steve Bannon and Kash Patel, a former chief of staff to then-acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller."

    The anti-mask sentiment of people like Trump and DeSantis is exetreme.

    Florida is now trying to block reimbusrsement money Biden sent to school districts who were punished by DeSantis over mask mandates.

    The tactic is to withhold more state money equal to the amount of the reimbursement money.


    Florida trying to block money Biden sent to school districts fined for mask mandates

    excerpt:

    "Days after the Biden administration reimbursed two Florida school districts whose board members lost their salaries for mandating masks for students, the state's top education official is trying to strip the districts of the money.

    In a series of memoranda, Florida Commissioner of Education Richard Corcoran recommended Monday that the Florida Board of Education, which meets Thursday, withhold "state funds in an amount equal to any federal grant funds awarded" to districts that defy Gov. Ron DeSantis' ban on school mask requirements."

    https://www.usnews.com/news/politic...georgias-kemp-counterattack-after-trump-rally

    excerpt:

    "ATLANTA (AP) — Supporters of Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp are fighting back against Donald Trump and their own party leaders, angered by a rally last month in which the former president again attacked the state's chief executive.

    Kemp's proponents warn that a total embrace of Trump, his false claims about election fraud and his vendetta against the governor for not trying to overturn Trump's loss in Georgia last year could ruin Republican chances in 2022 in the narrowly divided state.

    “Right now we are joined at the hip to Donald Trump, who doesn’t share the same interests," said James Hall, a state Republican Party committee member from Savannah. "He wants to torpedo Brian Kemp.”

    Georgia is one of several states seeing Trump-driven infighting. The former president also continues to roil the party’s internal politics in Arizona, where he has targeted Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, and Wyoming, where he is driving an effort to oust Liz Cheney, the state’s lone U.S. House member. Trump is endorsing primary candidates across the nation, continuing a drive to remake the Republican Party in his image."

    That’s rich: Both Trump and Oprah bumped from the Forbes 400 list

    excerpt:

    "While many in the U.S. have struggled financially as the pandemic persisted and cases of the delta variant surged across the country this year, the nation’s rich got richer. The collective wealth of the 400 wealthiest Americans increased 40% over the last year to $4.5 trillion, according to Forbes. Meanwhile, the median net worth for a typical American family is $121,700."

    Up next:

    Trump claims he fell off the Forbes' 400 richest list because they didn't count all of his secret, illegal money.

    The rats can make all the fucking noise they want, but they'll say or do anything to avoid going down with Donald Duck, while he's the only reason anyone gives a crap about anything they say.

    Top Trump aides set to defy subpoenas in Capitol attack investigation

    excerpt:

    "Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and other top aides subpoenaed by the House select committee investigating the Capitol attack are expected to defy orders for documents and testimony related to 6 January, according to a source familiar with the matter.

    The move to defy the subpoenas would mark the first major investigative hurdle faced by the select committee and threatens to touch off an extended legal battle as the former president pushes some of his most senior aides to undercut the inquiry.

    All four Trump aides targeted by the select committee – Meadows, deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino, strategist Steve Bannon and defense department aide Kash Patel – are expected to resist the orders because Trump is preparing to direct them to do so, the source said.

    The select committee had issued the subpoenas under the threat of criminal prosecution in the event of non-compliance, warning that the penalty for defying a congressional subpoena would be far graver under the Biden administration than during the Trump presidency."

    Top Trump aides set to defy subpoenas in Capitol attack investigation

    excerpt:

    "But with the former president expected to insist to Philbin that Meadows, Scavino, Bannon and Patel mount blanket refusals against the subpoenas, the sources said, the select committee at present appears likely to see none of the requests fulfilled.

    The move means that House select committee investigators now face the key decision over how to enforce the orders – and whether they make a criminal referral to the justice department after the Thursday deadline for documents or next week’s crunch date for testimony.

    House select committee chairman Bennie Thompson told reporters recently that he was prepared to pursue criminal referrals to witnesses who defied subpoenas and subpoena deadlines, as the panel escalates the pace of its evidence-gathering part of its investigation.

    “We’ll do whatever the law allows us to do,” Thompson said last Friday on the subject of prosecuting recalcitrant witnesses. “For those who don’t agree to come in voluntarily, we’ll do criminal referrals.”"

    Satire from Andy Borowitz.


    Ted Cruz Calls Obamacare a Democratic Plot to Keep People Alive So They Can Vote

    excerpt:

    "WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Outraged by the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to preserve Barack Obama’s signature legislative achievement, Senator Ted Cruz called the Affordable Care Act “a thinly veiled Democratic plot to keep people alive so they can vote.”

    “A long time ago, Democrats figured out that live people were far more likely to vote than dead ones,” Cruz charged. “Make no mistake: the Affordable Care Act is a calculated scheme to increase the number of live people.”

    He went on, “Democrats will stop at nothing to get people to vote. They will get them ballots. They will get them bottled water. And, yes, if necessary, they will keep them from dying of a preëxisting condition. It disgusts me.”"
