What Happened to the Right Wing Day of Rage?

 This was supposed to be the day when wingnut Patriots would rain down their fury on all fifty State capitols.  


As far as I can tell, they all stayed home and just took a couple extra oxy's instead.


That's your right wing threat.

Update: Some more comment on this subject from my go-to guy on the subject, Dave Niewert, at Daily Kos:


"Not a single person shows up for ‘Million Militia March,’ and state-capital protests fail badly too...


All of the various right-wing “Million”-themed marches that have been organized over the past several years (such as December’s “Million MAGA March”) have fallen well short of the million people they claimed to rally—usually, they number at best in the tens of thousands. But Sunday’s planned “Million Militia March” was a failure of truly epic proportions: It seems no one showed up to march. Not a soul...The situation at most state capitals was roughly the same, despite the plans announced by angry MAGA fans during the week before"


The lesson we can take from this?  These treasonous bastards can be a truly great threat to everything this nation is supposed to stand for, as they proved on January 6th, but at the same time we cannot forget that they are mostly just a bunch of stupid, ignorant jerks who can be counted on to fail and make total fools of themselves at 99% of everything they try to do. How many "million man marches" on the Capitol that end up with about 200 in attendance after massive free promotion from Fox News, right wing hate radio etc. do we have to see before people put this in perspective?  Yes, they are capable of some really hateful violence, and will probably occasionally come through on their threats in the future, but in general they are a pack of suckers being manipulated by rich sociopaths, like the dumb thugs that every movie villain seems to prefer as his tools.  And we all know where those guys end up- in the wood chipper.

And like all bullies, they are totally overwhelmed whenever a bigger bully comes along. And that is really the story of Trump. Of course, when that bigger bully himself is revealed to also be a sniveling coward, they turn on him like sharks in bloody water. That's why I expect a lot of these people to suddenly "remember" in the coming months that they always hated Trump and never supported him for an instance.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
