To be in trumps' orbit, you don't have to be a cunt, but it helps.

I Fucking Love Australia's avatar

You win the internet this week Ken 🏆

Ken Chapman's avatar

High praise indeed. Just when I was thinking of limping away from the whole ugly shitshow.

Melissa J's avatar

I'm beginning to think it's a requirement.

If the MAGAMorons don’t like the honest reaction to Lady Lindsey’s death by those of us with brains and a spine, they’re really going to be unhappy when IQ47 carks it. (See Gman? I’m using Aussie lingo everywhere I can now. 🤣) Let the MAGAMoron head explosions commence. And soon, please God.

Leslie A Stensen's avatar

That got the grins for the day---IQ47!! You are being generous with the IQ!! Such a loser he is, among a few other things!!

Monica In Canada Has Opinions's avatar

I think his IQ has dipped since I started using that term for him. “The Islamic Republic of Japan”? Yeah, that merits an IQ recalibration - low 30s, same as his popularity rating.

Leslie A Stensen's avatar

Having lived in Japan off and on, the majority religion is of Eastern teachings, there may have been few who would like to hire a few well trained samurai to make a trip to the US!! Then again, why waste the time, energy, and such a worthy sword on such a useless person??

Ralph Berry's avatar

Yes. You would bring them much dishonour with such an unworthy target.

Jon's avatar

You don't have to be, but you undoubtedly will.

Void's avatar

Looking at those around him, there are certainly a shit-ton trying to get to the lofty heights of being a true cunt. Some are exceeding all expectations, while many are having trouble keeping up.

Ken Chapman's avatar

They're all cunts. It's just that the truly stellar cunts put the others in the shade. I was kinda hoping that those glowing tributes to Lindsey Graham would finish wish, "after all that, he was still a cunt". Haven't seen it yet.

Tish Grier's avatar

I think it's actually a qualification. in the fine print.

Abandoned Afghan Ally's avatar

This Aussie post shows the real situation about how Trump's style changed the political rules. When Trump celebrates the death of a war hero like Mueller, his team cannot ask for decency now. Trump's movement only brought deep polarization and anger. He is the same leader who made a big betrayal to Afghan allies after 20 years of loyal service and left them in danger

I mourn them as much as they mourn innocent civilians in Gaza and Iran.

Chris Hubacek's avatar

I mourn them less than the Gazans and I Iranians. Those innocent civilians never asked for their murders. Corrupt politicians do.

Margaret Skeel's avatar

Same goes for Charlie Kirk...good riddance to another truly awful mongrel and offended magats can get stuffed

Karla Von Huben's avatar

When I heard Kirk had been shot my instant response was "Good!" Then I was appalled at my reaction.

One of the worst aspects of this monstrous regime is that they're destroying our sense of decency and honor. It's also killed my creativity (I'm a writer) and made it difficult to concentrate on anything but the latest Nazi plot. I scan articles I want to read in depth; I glance at books I would usually enjoy and put them back down; I sleep too much; and I can't even find a movie on YouTube that holds my interest.

This is no way to live, and the ongoing depression makes it increasingly difficult to fight, which, as that greasy Bannon noted, is the plan.

Thanks for letting me rant. I think I'll ignore politics for a couple of days and do a reset. But I can't miss an edition of IFLA because it's too good and it keeps me (relatively) sane. Cheers!

Ken Chapman's avatar

It sucks Karla. Small consolation i know, but it will end. Those left will get their comeuppance, and us normal folks will be able to rest easy. Don't give up, we still got a way to go.

Margaret Skeel's avatar

I am in the same boat . A writer struggling against the depression brought about bynegative circumstances in the world and at home. Don't know how but we have to fight it.sending you a virtual hug...and yes, a daily dose of gman or texas mom really helps!

Nicki's avatar

Chefs Kiss Margaret. I hope they never get a moments peace in hell.

lynn's avatar

Canadian here. Whoever said you mustn't speak ill of the dead hasn't met many maga. It's disturbing how many maga are willing to rip-off their own country. It's disturbing how many supporters are fine with this. Dear dumpy trumpy has made it acceptable to malign the dead. So have at it. They deserve it.

Brian Taylor's avatar

Fellow Canadian here. I agree. I texted a friend, upon receiving the news of Graham's death, "He was a snake." With apologies to snakes and all who love them.

lynn's avatar

Yeah, snakes deserve love. How about "He was a pile of manure"? No wait, manure is needed to grow stuff. Let's think on this. What is absolutely not necessary, has no redeeming qualities, yet is highly destructive?

Brian Taylor's avatar

That's easy. Trump. But somehow calling Graham a Trump just doesn't have the impact of 'snake'.

lynn's avatar

Agreed. Maybe hagfish? Or is that too obscure?

Ken Chapman's avatar

Double it. He was a trumpmusk.

lynn's avatar

Pus will do quite nicely. Hagfish provide a good service, unlike Graham.

Jennifer Kass's avatar

Pus even has a purpose, as it is helping your body to fight infections.

pennysmom's avatar

I always use the old reliable asshole 🤷‍♀️

Madmacs27's avatar

Great northwestern slugs, Lynn

lynn's avatar

Much like land dwelling hagfish, mucus and all.

James Thibeaux's avatar

We celebrated here in America yesterday hearing the welcomed news, a traitor is dead !!!

He was a horrible person a horrible hypocrite of his politics.

He is burning in hell, where he belongs, awaiting the entire gop of spineless, sextual offenders, soon to join him

lynn's avatar

Isn't that sad? To be pushed to the point of celebration. I know when your orange tyrant kicks it, I'll celebrate. I'm not proud of that.

LynneC's avatar

I'll have zero guilt about the pleasure I'd get from the deaths of these dreadful human beings.

Karma has been really slack lately and we need a bit more of it now, please.

Trump is the grandson and the son of equally awful people and I doubt that the latest batch of Trumps will prove to be any better given the greed of practically every child he has fathered (so far).

Just seeing the constant money making grifting of the three eldest kids and their total lack of shame about it, I doubt anything will change soon.

Leslie A Stensen's avatar

Karma. It will have its day, always!! Never know when it will arrive!! Hope for quite soon for many of the cohorts and the biggest loser, drumph. I am hoping that once drumph is gone, it's going to be a long, long time before any person with that last name would run for any office!! Folks do have long memories, and history will be there to shine the truth!!!

lynn's avatar

They are, without a doubt, dreadful. The people who put them into power are dreadful. I've never been a fan of the united states. They are simply too arrogant. Everything they touch turns to rot. Ultimately I think the country needs to be scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up. Of course, there is no way of knowing if 2.0 would be any better. I'm not sure they are capable of learning from their mistakes. From a Canadian perspective, I long for the day they don't suck all of the air out of the room.

James Thibeaux's avatar

Yes, it is

Never in my life have I ever felt this way about anyone.

Until rump, 16 years ago, and all those that jumped on the money train, and are all traitors now. It's a horrible way to feel about anyone.

Karla Von Huben's avatar

Me either. It disturbs me that I'm capable of the kind of virulent hate I feel for Trump and MAGA.

lynn's avatar

This sits squarely on trump, his administration, and maga. I'm sure there are some maga with functioning brain cell who regret their vote, but that's too bad - you've earned this. No forgiveness.

James Thibeaux's avatar

No

Let me correct you

Brain cells are non existing in these mindless minion's, it's a pure cult

James Thibeaux's avatar

They only regret it, when they loose money

A son or daughter in a war of his choosing, his gut, which is a rotting scab on this earth

Only if something directly affects them. Like gas prices, groceries caused by illegal tariffs, shutting down hospitals all over our country, killing, murdering our citizens for no cause or reason at all.

He is a cancer on a global c

Scale

Elizabeth Barber's avatar

You knew they would all be clamoring for compassion and decency. It’s the maga way. They are allowed to say what they want, act vile and show no compassion or humanity - but if someone responds in kind or even close when something happens, it’s shock, horror and “show some respect for the dead”. The only positive thing I can say about Graham is that at least he did support Ukraine- I will give him that one check in the right column.

vieux loup's avatar

That does worry me. Who is going to have the puss bags ear about Ukraine now?

Trace's avatar

Only 1 reply to MAGAs shock & horror. Fuck off. That’s it, end of conversation

Sassy's avatar

Barnaby Joyce is Australia’s version of Lindsay Graham ! Flippy floppers, only interested in trying to remain relevant to maintain a politicians wage and Super benefits. It is sickening.

I Fucking Love Australia's avatar

I've never seen anyone that shade of burnt purple make it over 60. Mother nature is full of surprises...

Annemarie King's avatar

Yeah. He's on record saying some not very nice things about our lovely Pauline (may she rot in hell) but seems to have changed his tune.

Elizabeth Chandler's avatar

Wherever the self-serving wind blows , mate , I’ll be there ! 🤢🤢🤢

Dea's avatar

There's another two we could invite the Eeaper to come deal with. Swiftly.

Elizabeth Chandler's avatar

Correct in every detail 💯

Jack Roscoe's avatar

Yeah, the only two differences between Barnaby and Lindsey is that one is dead and the other uses a Canberra footpath for a recliner-lounge phone booth.

Silvana Briand's avatar

2 down and one to go....

doetze's avatar

More than one, I'd think?

Dea's avatar

One can only hope...

But the fat orange one first, O Reaper, please 🙏

David Olden's avatar

If the cvnt at the top goes, JD Vance moves in to the Oval Office.

Dea's avatar

He will indeed. And the MAGAts with their Drumpf idolatry - including those in Congress - will soon scatter like the rats they are from the sinking ship that is this regime. Drumpf anchors it. I do not pretend to understand how, given how repulsuve he is at every level. But he does. Without him, the whole thing goes bilge up.

The Older Muse's avatar

Couldn't agree more. Trump has them - Vance does not - he has nothing without the pull that Trump has. They will slide him sideways and into the bin.

djw's avatar

I suspect the pus sac has stuff on them that could ruin them and has no compunction at all about broadcasting it. JustDance may inherit the same stuff, but he doesn't have the stroke to make it matter much.

vieux loup's avatar

When john doe shitty pants takes over the anchor will sink to the bottom with no mooring chain.

Silvana Briand's avatar

Yes, but if we have to settle for 1 right now then we know which one...

The rest can have their asses dragged through court and jailed for the next several eternities

George Mahr's avatar

The power of three will set us free.

Nitramyar's avatar

Thank you, once again, for the no-bullshit commentary without all of the pseudo solemnity being shown everywhere else. Graham was a two-faced, hypocritical piece of shit from start to finish, not least when he was spilling crocodile tears on the Senate floor for fucking Brownie points. Good fucking riddance.

NIZAMIXIII's avatar

Hehe. I saw the news a few minutes ago and punched the fucking ceiling! :-D

I Fucking Love Australia's avatar

Sunshine on a rainy day my friend.

Pierre Belley's avatar

Trump equals death, in every way. He is the end of the world on two fat legs. Apocalypse Now! Have a good day, everyone—and the others too—from Quebec, Canada.

Sonia Saville's avatar

‘Compassion is earned while you’re alive. Not handed out at the door like a funeral programme’ …. Nailed it again, Gman.

👏👏👏

Jennifer O’Connor's avatar

I loved this as well, I have always said and got frowned upon for saying “ Just because you die , doesn’t make you an angel” .

TotalMuppet's avatar

Lindsay Graham. Slimier than a snail's arse, changed his position more often than a toddler under the influence of a red cordial and quadruple espresso cocktail.

Perhaps the rules will be changed to no longer allow invertebrates to be voted into Congress, but in the Fractured States of Trumpistan, sensible options are not taken.

Zero tears shed for him in this household.

I Fucking Love Australia's avatar

I must be honest with you, I have shed a few tears over Graham's untimely passing... Of unadulterated joy.

James Thibeaux's avatar

We share your statements. We celebrate, we are now looking forward to all of them dropping like flies on a pile of shit.

It's horrible here in America, how one deranged idiot, mentally ill felon can destroy our globe in 18 months

We must stop all of them now

He can't say a sentence with any direction, someone else does that. We all know he's incapable of of a single thought, except spreading hate, war, and lining his pockets with our money.

He has destroyed the entire Washington DC area into a cesspool.

May this bastard suffer I mean really know pain ...

SheWhoShallRemainNameless's avatar

Well said, Gman.

I Fucking Love Australia's avatar

Appreciate your support mate 👍 ❤️ 💙 💜 💚 💛 🧡 🩵

"We’re a satire page in the Blue Mountains run by one bloke, two sheilas and a Shih Tzu Terrier." Best be careful, mate. USians are pretty ignorant of geography and are likely to think you're either in their Pacific Northwest or Appalachia.

George Mahr's avatar

This means they’ll never find him, which is a good thing.

vieux loup's avatar

usaians are pretty ignorant of everything.

Karen H. from Canada's avatar

Let us not forget that he voted against every single bill that ever supported the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

Brian Taylor's avatar

... which is curious, in that he was widely believed to be gay himself.
