I haven’t the froggiest idea why…

A tweet from Molly Ploofkins says: “Inflatable frog costumes are sold out on Amazon.” The attached image shows a product listing for a green inflatable frog costume with dark spots, a white belly, and a blue bow tie. The listing title reads “Inflatable Frog Costume Adult Men Women Outfit… for Halloween Holiday Cosplay Party Animal,” and it’s marked as “Currently unavailable.”

Given the attitude of health insurers to paying claims shouldn't that be "Your money *and* your life"?

Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

BARTIROMO: You said you wanted to develop Gaza. Do you have plans for that?

TRUMP: I liked it as, like, freedom place you call it. And we would get all of the people that live there into decent homes throughout the region. Egypt has a lot of land, Jordan has a lot of land.

from today's post, wherein Donny gets caught cheating at golf again — plus a round-up of the stupid shit Republicans said on TV this weekend.
please read the whole thing, thanks!
link is here: bit.ly/4orQHbJ
(and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

Cheaty McGolferpants got caught again, this time at his New Jersey ex-wife cemetery, where Donny miraculously won his eighteen millionth consecutive club championship.

Donny’s caddie takes a golf ball out of a bag and drops it on the green, after which Donny pushes the ball with his club, and then drags it back towards him.

this is a maneuver known as cheating your fucking ass off.

every cultist on social media was all SHUT UP COMMIE, DEAR LEADER DID NOTHING WRONG.

me, I don’t know shit about golf. but I know someone who does: Rick Reilly.

Rick’s a sportswriter, and the author of the book Commander in Cheat. you’ll never guess what it’s about.

here’s what Rick has to say.

So you know, it’s NEVER legal for your caddy to drop a ball. YOU can drop one, but never on a green. And since this was a full-score event, its not legal for Trump to drag the ball into the hole. No, no, never. Our president is a f*cking golf cheat.

our president is indeed a fucking golf cheat.

he cheats at golf just like he cheated to get into college and cheated to get out of Vietnam and cheated on his wives and cheated on his taxes and cheated students at his scam university and cheated donors to his fake charity.

I will tell you this, however: should Dear Leader successfully lower the price of prescription drugs by fifteen hundred percent, I will forever shut the fuck up about him cheating at golf.

that’s a promise.
