Your Official Almost Semi-World Famous Irredeemable Big Ass Mid-Week Open Thread.

We're almost two weeks into 2024 and the democrat crazy train shows no sign of slowing. Bedlam and insanity are forecast to continue, with a major proliferation of lies, insults, misrepresentations, kicking and spitting, and media meltdowns.

And your Beloved Blog Editrix, Who Loves Each and Everyone of You, wants to make clear there will be no acceptance on her part, of an offer, of any kind or amount, to coach Alabama Crimson Tide Football. 

Regular ground rules apply...... and don't give the Sasquatch any liquor, and use the Coasters.

The floor is yours.......

And They Are Good Liars Too.

The average leftist follower is decidedly non-intellectual and reacts to everything like a cat with a laser-pointer dot, i.e., mindlessly attacking it, oblivious to everything else, oblivious and unconcerned about the destruction its attacks cause, and accomplishing nothing except chaos, disorder, and destruction.

That chaos, disorder, and destruction, however, is exactly the thing that the most elite leftist leaders want. And they are intelligent and intellectual in the same manner that Hitler and Goebbels were - capable of satanic-level hatred.

Maybe It’s The Lighting

We have, I fear, been neglecting for a long time the finer arts and their uplifting tendency here at DMF. So let’s correct that immediately and thereby better ourselves, with thanks to our cousins across the pond:

Jesse Darling picked up the prestigious art award and its £25,000 check (31K US$) at a ceremony in Eastbourne England..... He has spoken about being inspired by his view of the effects of austerity, Brexit, and the pandemic....... and the “hostile environment” immigration policy. “I wanted to make a work..... about Britain for the British public.” 

How kind. 

Now feast thine eyes upon it:

I know. I know. You’re positively trembling with aesthetic rapture.

According to the artist, and the Turner Prize judges, what we, the public need and indeed deserve, is a seemingly random arrangement of tape, net curtains, and metal crash barriers, thereby conveying “a familiar yet delirious world,” and an allegedly “hostile” British immigration policy. The chair of the judges, Tate Britain director Alex Farquharson, added that his art was “bold & engaging.

We’re told by Katie Razzall, the BBC’s culture editor, that the prize-winning art, or pretend-art, "tackles nationhood and British identity." I'll be interested what our resident subject of the Crown, Feargal the Cat, may have to say about that statement. 

Sharp-eyed readers may notice another possible reason for the artist’s gushing reception among our betters. The artist’s identity, or pretend-identity, being so terribly in right now, and by default deserving.

Politifact: Hillary Clinton Is Not a Lizard Person

Where to begin? With the facts, I suppose.

We are talking about Politifact so I guess we should begin with the facts before we jump into the ridicule and brilliant analysis. The “fact checkers” at Politifact want you to know that the lying conservatives are trying to convince you that Hillary Clinton is a reptile, and that, contrary to your instinct to agree, she is not. Hillary Clinton is human.

Video circulating on social media claims to show former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with reptilian features. But the videos and photos were edited. https://t.co/bIbWuPkl9c

Fact checking joke memes. Top end journalism.

I think we can debate whether Hillary Clinton is fully human–it all depends on whether you consider psychopaths as fully human or not–but I think we can state with confidence that nobody who is likely to read a Politifact “fact check” is also likely to believe that Hillary Clinton is a lizard person.

Given the Venn Diagram between the (nonexistent) people who believe that HRC is a Lizard Person and readers of Politifact, one has to wonder for whom the “fact check” disproving the claim is actually written. Or, for that matter, who the “facts checks” of Babylon Bee jokes done by both Politifact and Snopes are directed.

We all know the answer: these fact checks have nothing to do with “disproving” widely believed “misinformation” that must be squashed before a credulous public gets taken in. They are directed at Liberals who desperately need to believe that anybody who disagrees with them is a poltroon incapable of understanding that CNN did not, in fact, buy an industrial-sized washing machine to spin the news.

The DMF ASSHAT of the YEAR "LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD".

Congratulation are in order for the Spawn of Vader, Liz Cheney, just awarded the frequently Annual DMF AssHat of the Year - "AMY WINEHOUSE LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD" - joining an elite list of people we wish would be swept away to a far away galaxy and used for alien medical experiments. 

Once the #3 in Republican House leadership and Nan Pelosi want-to-be, Liz caught a near fatal case of TDS and went to the dark side, choosing to star in the cast of a made for TV primetime democrat political propaganda extravaganza, as the Co-chair of The Select Committee's dramatic Kabuki Theater production of the J6 Hearings.

Before joining the Democrats’ Jan. 6 Committee, Cheney toured the media spreading the bogus Russian bounties story claiming Trump ignored Kremlin dollar signs on the heads of American troops in Afghanistan. Her support for endless aid to Ukraine stands far apart from the majority of Republicans.

And if losing her house seat in an embarrassingly large primary defeat wasn't enough, Cheney's blasting of Republicans and DJT at her own alma mater commencement exercises backfired spectacularly, as the Daughter of Vader was not received well at all. Throughout Cheney's remarks, more and more students opposing the choice of Cheney as speaker booed and turned their chairs away from the stage while she spoke.

Cheney dropped her responsibilities to constituents in Wyoming to help lead the Democrats’ partisan crusade exploiting the Capitol riot to tar political dissidents and capitalize on the stardom that comes with anti-Trump punditry. Despite half her state being under the jurisdiction of the federal government, Cheney left her seat on the House Natural Resources Committee navigating Wyoming’s myriad public lands issues to direct her energy toward her vendetta against DJT with summer show trials.

In the process, the Wyoming congresswoman smeared legitimate concerns of citizens about the integrity and safety of U.S. elections.

To great fanfare and publicity by a fawning media, Liz published her new memoir last month to cement her legacy in democrats' version of history as a political martyr whose career as a rising star on Capitol Hill fell at the whims of an American “dictator.”  Bless Her Heart. 

As I wrote the night of Lizzy's mid-term primary concession speech:

9pm - Liz walks in........flicks the light switch........which sends an echoing click through her empty room. The silence is so loud, her heels on the floor send ripples out across the hardwood, bouncing off the far wall and colliding back on themselves. She opens the fridge and pours a large tumbler of wine and sits down kicking her shoes off........then guzzles the whole glass. She gets up and sulks toward the shower, carrying the bottle with her....stopping to kick the wall and mumble something about Lincoln. Liz's obvious substance abuse problem (pepperoni) likely contributed to her defeat. 

Democrat and the sycophant media admiration for her is directly proportional to her disdain for DJT. Otherwise, to them, she's no better than your average hillbilly from the mountains.

So let us all raise a glass to the newest member of a small elite group (an honor many are deserving but few have received) worthy of our unfamous and well earned ridicule.
