yesterday's man-baby post was all about how unhappy said man-baby is about the portrait of him that hangs in the Colorado State Capitol building
here's a LINK to the story behind the portrait - it's entertaining in a "bitch, please" kinda way - we know that his rants are intentional distractions from the horrors that he is initiating and executing, but this one is pretty doggone funny
in case you're thinking TLDR, i'll CliffNote it for you:
there's a gallery of presidential portraits hanging in the Colorado State Capitol building that is funded by donations, not by tax dollars
no one donated any money for Thing One's portrait, so some pranksters placed a portrait of Putin the War Criminal under Thing One's brass plaque ... it was removed (yes, a worker was "disciplined" for carding in the pranksters) and the Red Hats Republicans started a Go Fund Me to raise $10,000 for a portrait
the portrait was commissioned from an approved photo, the finished portrait was approved by the Colorado Red Hats Republicans, and the Red Hats Republicans held an unveiling ceremony of the masterpiece in August 2019 - SIX YEARS AGO
the man-baby is whining about it and blaming it on the Democratic governor* who had not one thing to do with it - it was totally the Red Hats Republicans from beginning to end...
*don't get me wrong, i am NOT a fan of Jared Polis
the portrait was removed today by the Colorado Red Hats Republicans ... he will find something new to cry about soon - anything for headlines that will distract John Q Public from the $hit $how that is today's FSA
do keep in mind that Thing One IS quite proud of his effing MUG SHOT - enough to frame it and hang it in the Offal Office
if you're interested in FACTUAL NEWS - as opposed to RT/Kremlin propaganda - regarding UKRAINE, here are some links to YouTube content creators who can be trusted to present actual facts and not the misinformation and disinformation that the current administration and the right wing news media is parroting for Vladimir Putin

for example - there are currently NOT 1000 - 2500* Ukrainian soldiers that have been encircled by Russian troops who are "allowing them to live" only because Thing One has pleaded with Putin to spare them
it isn't true - it is another lie by the Kremlin and repeated by Thing One
*Thing One continuously increases the number - not sure what number he has pulled out of his lower intestinal tract today

LITERALLY - WASTE, FRAUD and ABUSE
your tax dollars at work:

is this cutting waste, fraud and abuse?!?
your government is paying El Salvador (whose total GDP was $34 billion in 2023) at least $6 million to "imprison" (read: abuse and torture) 250 Venezuelan men who have tattoos that may - or may not - indicate they are Tren de Aragua - no due process, no proof, suspicions
their birth nation and their tattoos indicate that they might be gang members...
MIGHT BE GANG MEMBERS...
are they guilty? maybe? maybe not? who knows?
who cares?
certainly not Donald Trump who is too busy cheating at winning golf tournaments at his own golf club - a $4-6 million weekend on YOUR dime - to even offer consolation to the victims of the tornadoes (in RED states), let alone direct FEMA to assist in recovery
or little Marco Rubio who is VERY busy arranging the Great Territory Giveaway of Ukraine to Russia
or Tom Homan, the slack jawed ex-cop, who wants AOC in jail for educating her constituents about their rights and has stated that he "doesn't care" what the judicial system says about due process
or Kristi Noem who is busy with costume changes, posing for videos praising her Dear Leader
or Karoline Leavitt, Trump's mouthpiece, who smirks about the "fun video" of human beings being brutalized for the color of their skin, their tattoos, looking suspicious
but i digress...
we are supposed to be a nation of laws
with the Rule of Law applied to everyone
and the assumption of innocence until proven guilty
if a person is guilty, throw the book at them when their guilt has been proven in a court of law

this evil is being done in YOUR name and with YOUR money - are you okay with that?
just askin'
EDITED to add this LINK to an article by Philip Holsinger of Time.com documenting the treatment of these 261 men who were DENIED DUE PROCESS by the United States of America's current administration ... you know the one - composed of the party of Law and Order in the land of the free ... this was done in your name and paid for with your money
if you are willing to accept this as being "okay" - do us both a favor and don't come back here
