Not even an intimidating crime family. It's full of weirdos and idiots.

Like a remake of The Godfather but all the characters are played by Larry The Cable Guy and that guy with the racist puppets, Jeff Dunham.

Back in the day, there was a New York Mafia family that realized they were second stringers at best. They weren't tough enough to take over gambling, prostitution, narcotics, or any of the other big money deals. Then they realized that everybody needs their garbage picked up. No one was willing to stick their neck out and fight over a garbage route, so they soon had a monopoly on garbage pickups in all five boroughs. The point is, if you're willing to do evil, eventually you'll find a way to make money at it.

It's like a shit One Piece pirate crew.

At least some of the bad pirate crews were competent sometimes. Most of them can at least sail from point A to point B.

You might as well refer to the Kardashian as a crime family. Donald Trump represents the fusion of reality television and spectator politics -- of course sycophants show up, how else are they supposed to get air time?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

No.

I guess you're trying to be funny, but Trump really has killed people. Worse, they were our own folks. Besides turning his back on our allies the Kurds, its' pretty obvious he sold out agents in the field.

It's why they talk about the Biden crime family. Confession through accusation

Gaslight Obstruct Project

It fits weirdly well

I'm OOTL, who showed up at the hearing?

[–] Donjuanme 30 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Iirc There's a picture of a bunch of the clowns lined up behind him in the New York Court room

That one cop on the bottom pic. Doesn’t even want to be there.

The second one seems like a parody. It's framed to show that the barricade doesn't do anything. It doesn't look intimidating. It's just the press. And they are pandering for their 15 minutes. It's so pathetic in so many ways.

I don't know how they have taken the task of helping citizens and turned it into a meaningless job.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Wow, that's a lot of red ties. I wonder if there are shops that refuse them entry for wearing colors like that?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

It's so incredibly pathetic that it's looped around to hilarious. "Honey! Where's my red tie? How's daddy gonna know what a sniveling little bitch I am if I don't have my red tie??"

[–] jaybone 6 points 5 months ago

Do they all come out of a tiny car?

[–] moistclump 4 points 5 months ago

Ugh gaetz is so creepy. Gives me the ick.

What scum covered rock did they kick over to get Gorka to slither out of?

[–] Hobbes_Dent 17 points 5 months ago (2 children)

“Bang bang” Boebart, JD “Jury” Vance, “Tommy” Tuberville, “Viable Candidacy” Vivek, and “Journalism” Jeanine Pirro, as well as Lara and Eric “Trump” to name a few.

[–] FuglyDuck 11 points 5 months ago

Congratulations, you got a chuckle-cry from me.

This is funny but also depressing.

[–] billiam0202 4 points 5 months ago

Jeanine Pirro is the Honorable Judge Box Wine.

Tuberville is either Coach Foobaw or Potatotown.

Eric "I'm Eric!" Trump

Lara "Who's more Eric- the Eric or the Eric who marries him?" Trump.

Vivek Ramaswamadingdong.

I have nothing to say about Boebert because it took her three tries to get her GED, so congrats to teen father's teen mom for not giving up on getting a high school education!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Not Melania. Or Ivanka and Jared. They know enough to stay far away.

[–] Donjuanme 8 points 5 months ago

That's beautiful

Somebody yell "Gabagool!" and they'll scuttle away like cockroaches
