Secretary of Energy, Rick Perry, has offered up some sound advice to his boss … “An eye exam and glasses may be in order, Sir.”
Or Donald Trump could just cut out the obvious, blatant lies, Rick?

Donald Trump ends up with the short end of the stick in his latest “insult volley” with adult film star, Stormy Daniels. The two are reminding many older Americans of those fun, frivolous, and foolhardy days as teenagers. For that, Mr. “So-Called” President, they thank you!

During the final scenes of perhaps the greatest frat movie ever made, the audience of National Lampoon’s Animal House (1978) is treated to a glimpse of what becomes of some of the wild boys of Delta Tau Chi. Ladies’ man Eric Stratton (“Otter”) goes on to become a Beverly Hills gynecologist. Eternal loser Kent Dorfman (“Flounder”) finds his calling as a sensitivity trainer and obnoxious boozer John Blutarsky (“Bluto”) becomes a U.S. senator.
It now appears the movie’s comedy writers were too timid in their satire. They needed to think bigger, especially for John Belushi’s “Bluto” character. But back then, even satire had its limits. To be fair, how could the writers have ever imagined that in the year 2018, an actual hard-drinking frat boy could be appointed Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court?
Without a doubt, in the Age of Trump, satire is dead.

Brett Kavanaugh may have hurt his image as a judge while testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee. But he certainly enhanced his reputation as a beer lover. By repeating, “I like beer,” Kavanaugh caught the ear of some very savvy beer execs.

Looking to counter the accusation he attempted to rape a girl in high school, Brett Kavanaugh takes a page from the successfully disingenuous “socio-economic” outrage employed by Clarence Thomas at his own Senate confirmation hearing.

While Donald Trump has said some crazy stuff since taking office, his latest accusation against a major news network provides proof positive he intends to use the “insanity defense” in any criminal prosecution against him.
Trump is now making the absurd, and baseless, claim that NBC News somehow doctored an interview with Lester Holt in which he cites the Russia investigation as a factor behind firing FBI director James Comey.
“What’s going on at @CNN is happening, to different degrees, at other networks – with @NBCNews being the worst,” Trump tweeted. “The good news is that Andy Lack(y) is about to be fired(?) for incompetence, and much worse. When Lester Holt got caught fudging my tape on Russia, they were hurt badly!”
The “insanity defense,” also known as the mental disorder defense, is a defense by excuse in a criminal case, arguing that the defendant is not responsible for his or her actions due to an episodic or persistent psychiatric disease at the time of the criminal act.
It is possible Trump just might pull this off if he keeps going on this way.
What’s next … the Earth is flat? The moon landing was fake? Big Foot is an alien? Dinosaurs helped build the pyramids? Elvis is still alive? The National Enquirer is real news? Don Jr. and Ivanka are not really my kids?
As Rachel might say, “Watch this space.”

This year’s “Unite The Right” rally in D.C was a bust.
As reported in the Washington Post, “White supremacists held a rally in Washington on Sunday, and almost no one but their opponents and the police showed up.”
“Jason Kessler, one of the organizers of last year’s violent and deadly ‘Unite the Right’ rally in Charlottesville,” wrote the Post, “wanted to hold an anniversary demonstration there, but the city wouldn’t let him. So he brought his show to Washington, where he hoped 400 supporters would join him for a rally at Lafayette Square, across from the White House. Fewer than 40 turned out.”
In an exclusive interview with MM, Kessler blamed the piddling attendance on Donald Trump.
“Would it have hurt Trump to put out a tweet or two promoting our event?” asked Kessler. “The man tweets about everything, why not about our great rally?”
After last year’s violent rally in Charlottesville, Donald Trump gave aid and comfort to the white nationalists by saying “there is blame on both sides” for the deadly violence, equating the actions of white nationalist groups and those protesting them.
It was suggested to Kessler that maybe hate has lost its appeal, its panache. The peddler of animus was having none of it. “Hate is as American as apple pie. It will never go out of style. No, I blame this all on Trump.”
Donald Trump has yet to chime in on this year’s flop of a hate rally.
