10)Tamika Mallory- Nothing makes white people more mental that some black activist throwing their race around like a weapon. This idiot got thrown off a plane for acting up after a seat mix up and then said it wasn't that she was acting like an ass but because the pilot was white and she was black and that had to be reason. Right. Here's a tip, it is highly unwise to give lip to ANY person working at the airport as they have zero tolerance for attitude and the power to throw you curbside if they wish. Now while it is possible the ticket person has some attitude too, but in this case you grin and bear it, or you take the train. This the world for all of us, not just black people. Stop acting like you are the only ones being treated poorly. At the airport, we all are just cattle.
9)Halloween costumes- When did this holiday become controversial? Who doesn't celebrate it besides the far Christian right and Jehovah's Witnesses? Towns here in MA suspended Halloween at schools to be "more inclusive" for what is most likely a single child whose parents are assholes. Why should everyone suffer for a handful of kids? I am sorry if they are not included but too fucking bad. That is their parents problem. This is the same crap that forces to schools to cancel Christmas because of Jews or banning shirts with American flags for being "triggers." Can we please let kids be kids and stop forcing PC crap down their throats? Then we have costumes that range from too far to too PC. On the latter schools are sending out costume no no's, to avoid snowflakes from having a cow seeing someone dressed as Pocahontas or a Mexican. Let me say this for the cheap seats: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CULTURAL APPROPRIATIONS! That is the way society evolves. By this logic, any black woman with blond hair, wearing jeans or traveling on a plane is guilty of this bullshit. There are however, some costumes that are too far. Black face is a giant mistake but so is the company that decided an Anne Frank costume for children was a good idea. Can we please have some common sense back because no one seems to have anymore.
8)Maricopa County- The former district of racist Sheriff Joe Arpaio, whose bid to vacate his felony conviction was overturned (ha!), is having issues of their own: no one wants to be cops there. Recruitment has dwindled to near zero as the police there are now seen as Darth Vader stormtroopers combined with Nazi Death camp guards. Ouch. Outreach, raising salaries and the like have done nothing to make people want to join, what they see as, a bunch of dicks.This is going to have serious repercussions down the road if they don't fix this.
7)WHO- Leave it to the UN to make a truly boneheaded decision on a scale so epic, I actually thought it was farce at first. Dictator and butcher of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, was nominated to a post within the organization for his role in bringing health care to his country. While that may be true, it ignores the fact that he is also responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands, the economic collapse of his country, racist views against whites that drove them from his country when he illegally seized their farms, and more. This is the guy you want to talk about health care? Maybe you should hire Trump next to be your economic adviser. The post was rescinded later when someone with a brain said this was probably a bad idea. You think?
6)Sarah "Fat Bitch" Huckabee Sanders- I from now on will only refer to this cow of a woman as Fat Bitch, as her name may actually summon her if said out loud. Fat Bitch this week told the press that it was unimaginable that anyone would sully the name of a four star general and anyone doing so was an awful American. Say what? Someone tell Dumbo here that this isn't how democracy works. Questioning generals is DEMANDED is a free society, as they are the ones fighting wars and not always for the best of reasons like either Gulf War or Vietnam. I can barely to stand to look at her and her wonky eyes for one more second. I truly hate her.
5)Congress- Apparently no one is Congress can read. I know it is a shocker but recent events have convinced me it is either that or every single person in Congress regardless of party is corrupt. A bill put forward in 2016 that was supposed to help fight the opiate crisis passed with unanimous consent in both parts of Congress and signed by the president. The problem with this is I read the bill and even a three year old would have noticed the part in the three paragraph summary that if passed, thousands of people would die. It wasn't hidden. It wasn't confusing. It literally told you that dangerous drugs would hit the market if this went through. I don't know why no one else noticed this blatant law which leads us to one of two conclusions: either Congress isn't even reading the summaries of bill they are passing, relying on outside organizations to lead them by the nose, in this case the DEA who signed off on it for some inane reason, or their are all corrupt and taking bribes. Either way, we're fucked as no one is watching the store anymore.
4)Tom Marino and Orrin Hatch- The reason why said bill passed was because these two fuckwads stumped for it something fierce. They also took a lot of money from Big Pharma which isn't suspicious at all. Hatch was denied any wrongdoing saying they only gave him $177,000 and that isn't enough to sway his vote, also suggesting there is a number that would sway his vote. Interesting. Marino was set to be Trump's new drug czar but when this came out that fizzled hard. This is why nothing changes as we are not in control: corporations are.
3)Mitch McConnell- Dumbass appeared with the president this week to shore up any rumors they were at each other's throats, which of course confirmed it if they are having a press conference about it. This was a bad idea all around for Mitch. His wife's career is hanging by a thread because of stock options she will either be forced to give up or resign from the Trump administration. Bannon is waging a war on the Establishment that could backfire and give the Democrats control of the House and possibly the Senate, depending on how badly Republicans fuck things up over the next year. All this photo op did is make people hate McConnell a little more no matter which side of the GOP divide you are on. Plus, he is trying to get a tax plan done that is already hitting major speed bumps and is even less likely to pass if they tack health care on to it, which some have proposed. It is not going to be easy fixing taxes as they are about to find out. The notion of capping 401K's already hit with a thud as consumers and Wall Street bitched to high heaven about it. I am dying to see what crap they put in this which will cut trillions from programs people like. Good luck guys.
2)Trump- Asshole had another fine week where he trashed a Congresswoman after fucking up a phone call to a solider's widow, whose name he couldn't even remember. Instead of just apologizing, which would have made this go away fast, he doubled down and called her family a liar. A firestorm came next. Plus, we still have no idea why we have troops in Niger, why ISIS is in Niger and what exactly happened here where the story keeps changing. Some have speculated that when Chad pulled troops out of Niger because of Orange Hitler's travel ban, our troops were left unprotected. Where have I heard that before? Oh I know: BENGHAZI! Let's have some fucking hearings on this. This guy is suck a dick.
1)General John Kelly- What the fuck happened to you sir? Lying for the administration is not your job. That is what we have Fat Bitch for. It was bad enough when he slammed the congresswoman for listening in to the widow's call, like she tapped her phone or something, but was traveling with the family, who were friends of hers, and the call was on speakerphone. Plus, Johnny, YOU were listening into on the call too. Shouldn't that same blame go both ways. The topper was when you absolutely lied about Congresswoman Wilson'a speech about an FBI building, saying she bragged about getting funding for it and demeaning the FBI in the process. None of that happened as she wasn't even in Congress when funding occurred and the speech he was referencing was on tape contained none of his allegations. Actually, the exact opposite where she gracefully acknowledged the difficulty of being an FBI agent and talked respectively of the two people who had died that the building was named after. At no point did any of Kelly's allegation surface. Liar. Way to go because now I can't believe anything you say. Ever. That is not good from the Chief of Staff. You are a disgrace to your uniform and you and Colin Powell can both burn in hell as far as I am concerned. Maybe you should quit soon because your soul is going to burn out at this rate. Congratulations John Kelly, you outdid Trump to be douchebag of the week.
