Q: Why must one always take the first phone call one gets from Attorney General Jeff Sessions?
A: Because as he clearly stated about 30 times in his House Judiciary Committee testimony yesterday, he doesn’t recall.

The Sex Clams are Coming!
I see that even a local Alabama newspaper like the Times Daily in Florence, Alabama is covering the Roy Moore sex scandal with this headline story that I swear is real …
Moore or Less?
If you haven’t been paying attention, Democrats are absolutely giddy over the latest accusations of child molestation that have been levied against Bible-thumping, Ten Commandments-loving, homosexual-hating Republican Senate candidate for Alabama Roy Moore. In case you have been watching Fox News where the top story is that Hillary Clinton is now selling the USA’s uranium out of the trunk of her car, here is a link to the Washington Post story that broke the news get you up to speed.
Some Democrats think that this will lead to a Senate victory in a couple weeks for Democratic Senate candidate Doug Jones in the special Alabama election. To those Democrats, I would say …

Oil’s Bad That Ends Bad
One year ago, after a long & divisive presidential campaign, there was still one thing that united Democrats and Republicans … universal loathing of the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). Ruining the environment and desecrating sacred Native American lands had struck a bipartisan chord across the USA. We all opposed big oil sticking their pipeline where it didn’t belong, regardless of whether you listened to NPR or InfoWars.
Allow me to take you back one year ago …

GOP Response to Facebook
Republicans surprisingly offered an official response to this Facebook meme that has been going around regarding recent USA mass shootings asking people “See a pattern?”
Sign of the Times
I saw on Twitter that someone added this creative and really well-done sign to the fence at the front of Paul Manafort’s house …
Kinda’ clever and funny, but based on the money laundering charges filed against him by Robert Mueller’s team, I would have been satisfied with this sign …

Meat The Nominee
BREAKING NEWS …
Donald Trump’s choice to be the Department of Agriculture’s chief scientist, Sam Clovis (not a scientist) has withdrawn himself from consideration for the position in light of his recent testimony to Robert Mueller’s investigative team and grand jury regarding his time as a member of the Trump campaign.
However, in an unprecedented break with Clovis, deciding to remain in consideration for the position at the Department of Agriculture are the jowls and throat wattle of Clovis. A spokesperson for Clovis’s jowls and throat wattle released a statement saying, “A meaty position like this at the USDA requires a similarly meaty candidate, and the jowls and throat wattle of Sam Clovis certainly meat <wink> that criteria.”
This would indeed be a rare occurrence if jowls and a throat wattle are considered for such a choice, meaty position, and if confirmed, it would be a job well done. Gawd, I’m hungry for a steak now.

Under His Spell
BREAKING NEWS
We have learned exclusively that Donald Trump will not tweet any defense of his former adviser, George Papadopoulos, who has plead guilty to lying to the FBI, primarily because he can’t spell Papadopoulos.

SAD vs Sad!
I took a walk yesterday for exercise. It was cold, dreary, overcast and at times, snowing hard. For someone with SAD, it was a very difficult walk. I’m not talking about being sad. I’m talking about Seasonal Affective Disorder, when the lack of sunlight in fall & winter causes my body to crash and my lightbox becomes my best friend, somewhat like this …

Fake News Exposed
There was a time, way back in 2016, when satire was possible. Satire is fake news, but we all know it is fake news being played for laughs or ironic effect. We chuckle. We guffaw. At times, we just smile wryly while suppressing a chortle inside. I sensed a problem once Trump grabbed hold of this nation’s neck with as much as his tiny little hands could hold and nobody could tell my satirical fake news from reality anymore. And now this news story I saw today …
