The Resistance is working! But, alas, the pro-death party won a deadly victory today...
4 May 2017 update:
Hello again, fellow Dot Calm Readers, Freedom Fighters, and Truth Crusaders!
I'm still behind the eight-ball today--walked back into the office after my stellar trip with le dadster only to find mountains of work with very tight deadlines. So I got home late, and I am tarred [sic]. Ugh...but it's all good.
That is, until the repukes take away my employer health insurance...which brings me to the gruesome victory that the pro-death party won today: House Republicans voted to repeal Obamacare and replace it with tRumpcare 2.0, which is even crueler and nastier than the original tRumpcare was.
According to some reports, either version of tRumpcare is worse than simply repealing Obamacare outright and not replacing it.
But even that wasn't cruel enough for the teabags.
Srsly, have you been following these murderous thugs on Twitter? They're all for themselves, and they're only too glad to let others less fortunate suffer and die.
Hell, they were positively gleeful after their vote to murder tens of millions of innocent, hard-working Americans.
They're even going to celebrate!
Ayn Rand Paul Ryan surely creamed his jeans in his ecstasy--murdering innocent Americans has been his dream ever since his college kegger days.
What kind of sick, twisted bastards ARE these people?!??
If you do follow Twitter, and if you follow yours truly there, you'll see that I am calling for every last one of them to be made to live like they want the rest of us to live.
Failing that, they need to put in at least 100 hours of volunteering to serve the less fortunate so they can see the suffering first hand and learn that these are REAL PEOPLE, no less valuable than themselves, that they want to destroy.
Optimally, it should become a requirement before your name goes on the ballot if you want to serve in public office that you have to live like "the least of these" and put in at least 100 volunteer hours serving them so that maybe, just maybe, the jackholes who are in it for power and money acquire just a modicum of decency, humanity, and compassion.
The other minimum requirements I propose--in addition to those we already have--include at least the last five years of tax returns, a passing score on the citizenship exam, and passing a psychiatric exam to show that any would-be candidate is mentally healthy, reasonably well adjusted, and not a pathological liar, kleptocrat, malignant narcissist devoid of empathy, psychopath devoid of conscience, axe murderer, etc.
Srsly, is any of this really so much to ask?
Unless you're the orange fuckwit that is tRump--he couldn't pass a one of these requirements!
And now, with a "May the fourth be with you," let me slawg on with le blawg.
Choo choo time headlines
Business Insider: Jared Kushner didn't disclose ties to Soros, Thiel, Goldman Sachs
...From the teaser: when he filled out his SF-86 (the form you fill out to get a government clearance), "Jared Kushner didn't disclose business ties to George Soros, Peter Thiel, and Goldman Sachs, or that he owes $1 billion in loans"--well, as Rick "Do these glasses make me look c-a-t smart?" Perry would say, "Oops!" Except that it-snot an oops. Kushner knew that owing somebody...anybody...$1 BN amounts to a YUGE conflict of interest. As in, OF COURSE he'd use his position and influence to ensure that his creditors got the sweetest possible deals so they in turn would let him write off his debt for pennies on the dollar. Um, duh. How much ya wanna bet that the trumpanzees think this is all hunkey dokey?
Patheos: Ben Carson: Homeless Shelters Shouldn't Be 'Comfortable'
...According to Uncle Ben, Christian love MEANS punishing teh poorz. I say he's got a pernt--let's make government so uncomfortable that REPUBLICANS don't want to stay there any more!
The Daily Beast: Ex-Trump Staffers Register as Lobbyists, Despite 'Ban'
...Just one more case of tRump-Republican lies, hypocrisy, and graft.
American Magazine: Nancy Pelosi says pro-life Americans are welcome in Democratic Party
...In other words, she's perfectly happy to write off women's right to bodily autonomy...she's fine with the Republican-Christian biblical notion that women's bodies are the property of men, including those in government, to do with as they please. As I tweeted Ms. Pelosi: imagine that the government could decide to rip out one of your kidneys to save the life of someone they deem more important than you.
NBC News: AP Court Revives Gay Couple's Case Against Kentucky Clerk Kim Davis
...I hope they win, and I hope she pays. If she couldn't do the job, she should have gotten another job!
DutchNews.nl: Dutch passed on information about Trump's aides and Russia: NYT
...It wasn't just our friends the Brits supplying our government with critical information on Russian interference in our election: our friends in the Netherlands were helping out, too. Thank FSM for
Find.net: Trump order to ease opt-out of employer-covered birth control
...This headline originally appeared in The Guardian, where I read it. Oh well. As far as the content goes, it's a good thing that nuns don't get migraines or go through menopause because, if they did, they might need birth control--you know, hormones like what're covered by teh ebbil Obummercare. Good thing gawd cures nuns by magic so they never need no sciencey stuff like medicine anyway!
And now, a word from The Guardian:
House Republicans pass healthcare bill in first step toward replacing Obamacare
...Thanks, Comey. If anyone dies because of this, their blood is on YOUR hands, you fucking millionaire
Rex Tillerson: 'America first' means divorcing our policy from our values
...As I tweeted, if we divorce our policy from our values, it means that we have no values.
Google Docs users hit with sophisticated phishing attack in their inboxes
...Friends, beware this scam! It looks legit--almost identical to the real thing--but you don't want to find out first-hand what happens if you fall for it.
James Comey: I feel 'mildly nauseous' to think I may have affected the election
...Well, Comey, you prick, maybe you only feel mildly nauseous, but the truth is that you're extremely nauseous. I saw your video, and, as I tweeted, you were way too animated--you looked like a total phony. I personally think your explanation was shit, and I will never forget or forgive you for what you've already put this country and the citizens of the world through. As I tweeted, yes, you had a choice: conceal that both tRump and Hillary were under investigation, or reveal that both tRump and Hillary were under investigation. You chose to reveal one and conceal the other--you will forever be culpable for that. As I tweeted, Comey, you un-American traitor, you now have blood on your hands, starting with all the post-election violence and the bombs that tRump has already dropped. If tRumpcare passes, that's so much more blood on your hands--as will be the deaths from global warming and any ickle war-wars tRump starts. Sleep tite--nitey nite, you sick prick.
Obama unveils plans for presidential library center on Chicago's South Side
...He and Michelle are also donating a cool $2M to help the less fortunate now that he's collected $400k in speaking fees. Is it time for me to be outraged now? Srsly, folks--Obama is center-right and always has been, just like the Clintons. As Dot Calm would say, doesn't make him a bad person. Let's keep our eye on the prize: #tRump-Russia. Babies are not gonna die (as Dot Calm would say) if Obama takes $400k in speaking fees--but babies ARE already dying because of comrade tRumPEWtin and the Russo-Republicans!!!!!
Steve Bannon's giant to-do list revealed in photo with rabbi
...Well, well. Who knew that lovable reality star Rabbi Shmuley Boteach (of "Shalom in the Home" fame) was a ban'em-fan? Is Shmuley really an alt-right
New York Times wants to offer diverse opinions. But on climate, facts are facts
...A-a-a-a-a-and this is why I refuse to subscribe to the NYT.
James Comey defends Clinton email decision but warns of threat from Russia
...What Comey did was indefensible--the nation and the world suffer already and will likely suffer a whole lot more unless we can bring down orange twAtler haste post haste...and I wouldn't want to bet that Comey's whole heart is into helping. But Comey is right--Russia is still at it. And, as I keep Resistbotting my congress-critters, every day that our government toddles along pretending this is all business as usual, they are complicit in every crime PEWtin and his cock holster tRump commit. They are, in effect, telling PEWtin, "Hey, it's perfectly fine that you dicked with our election. We don't give a shit--have at it."
Jimmy Kimmel reveals the heartlessness of healthcare in America
...Yup--Republicans said, "Fuck your baby that nearly died, and fuck you, Jimmy Kimmel." It was almost that literal. Mo Brooks said that people who live good lives don't get pre-existing conditions, so engineers like me are trying to figure out what Jimmy Kimmel's baby should have been doing in utero instead of whatever it was doing in there that damaged his heart (Mo Brooks is a Christian, so the fetus was probably masturbating...but I thot that made you blind...?). I can tell you what the problem is here, friends: Jimmy Kimmel's baby was born--according to Republicans, only the unborn are free from pre-existing conditions and therefore entitled to live; the rest of us can suck it. As I tweeted, when Republicans run the show, we should all be walking around in safe wombs.
JP Morgan to move hundreds of jobs out of UK due to Brexit
...This is what nationalism does, friends. It isolates nations, destroys their economies, and weakens them by destroying their alliances. We really are stronger together--especially when our adversaries are making concerted efforts against us deliberately to weaken us. Like our bestest BFF Russia.
Hillary Clinton: I was on way to presidency until leaks raised doubts
...There's also Hillary Clinton: I'm to blame for election loss but outside interference cost me. Friends, conservabots are howling--howling, I tell you
--about this. There-snot one piece that doesn't offend those pweshush ickle snowflakes. Mor00ns like McCain ran for president multiple times--so did tRump--but nobody ever declares them irrelevant and dismisses them, demanding they go away after one failed run. And this is after all the "where the hell is she?" crap when the poor woman just needed a minute to catch her breath after the debacle that was election night. As for me, I fail to see the problem: Hillary takes responsibility for losing but acknowledges that her campaign was materially damaged by James Comey, Jason Chaffetz, Vladimir Putin, and Julian Assange--not that she'd ever name them as directly as I just did. But that's the truth right there, friends--it took all these piece-of-shit men plus Republicans suppressing the vote plus media that's lusted for Hillary's blood since Bill became president to take Hillary down just enough to lose the electoral college by some 70,000 votes. She still won the popular vote by some 3,000,000. I think the media are pissed that she won't go away--now she's a welcome member of The Resistance, thank FSM--because her face is a reminder of what a shit job the media have done all along in
Jordan Edwards shooting: Texas officer who killed 15-year-old fired
...Friends, I haven't been able to go there when it comes to the death of this poor kid and what his family is going through right now. This was one of Dot Calm's hot-button issues...mine, too. There are just no words to capture the grief, the outrage, .... At least they fired the bastard. Too bad they didn't either avoid hiring him or fire him before he murdered an innocent, unarmed kid who had his whole life ahead of him.
Trump and Putin had 'good' talk about ending Syria war, White House says
...tRump and PEWtin sittin' in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g...!
Czech girl Scout stands up to neo-Nazi at rally
...*sigh*...At least not all the n00z is bad!
Red alert: Kofi Annan on the photos that capture our choking planet
...Thanks, Comey. Go fuck yourself now, please and thank you--you've already fucked all of us. As some brilliant soul said on FB, at least you could have bought us all dinner first.

Moar m00bies!
There's an even funnier version of this on Twitter...I'm trying to track it down...with Rachel Maddow's reactions, which are hilarious. I mean, tRump's "best people" can't even work the goddamn phones! They couldn't work the light switches, either, remember? Hee HEE!
Walp, that's it from here, friends--try to have a nice weekend, and don't forget to RESIST!
- Dot Calm's shadow
2 May 2017 post:
Hello again, fellow Dot Calm Readers, Freedom Fighters, and Truth Crusaders!
Why do I always seem to be behind the eight-ball?
Could it be because I have a full-time job, a partially-disabled dad to take care of, and the personality of a firebrand that won't take Republican bullshit quietly without a fight?
Ehhhh...could be!
This time, I'm behind the eight-ball because I just got back in town from a family trip to celebrate a big decade birthday. What a refreshing and fun change from...funerals. Anyhoo, the dadster and I had a great trip and, as a result, are planning several more family trips in coming months.
So, please be patient with me today--there's way more n00z than I can do justice to!
Last time, I clued you in to my clever plan to hijack tRump's 1-855-48-VOICE (6423) hotline and start reporting all the crimes being done by evil Russian agent comrade tRumPEWtin and his accomplices right here on American soil (oh noes!).
Today, I'd like to remind you that Melania is exactly the sort of person of interest that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) needs to know about: she worked here illegally under (IIRC) a tourist visa and, according to The Independent, would be a prime candidate for deportation under the tRump administration's new guidelines.
In other words, feel free to call the VOICE hotline and turn her in.
You'll be saving America from a dangerous criminal who violated our immigration laws and who is costing us between NYPD estimates of $127,000 and $146,000 a day and up to $410,000 per day during the school year.
Apparently, we should be grateful that the rumors that Melania and Barron were going to stay in NYC because the boy has "soccer" were just that--rumors (thanks, NY Daily News).
If ICE does its job under the new guidelines and sends Melania back to Slovenia, I'm taking bets: will tRump even miss her? Will he even know she's gone?
Walp, friends, lemme tell ya: Resistbot works!
I promised myself to send so many faxes to my congress-critters over Resistance Recess that I'd run their machines out of paper.
One of them (the chickenshit corporate Democrat) ran out of paper--or at least stopped answering--for daze but is back online now.
The other one--the chickenshit Republican who lies during her phoned-in town halls--called me this morning to set up a meeting to discuss "some of my concerns."
I guess she decided it would be cheaper and faster to meet face to face than to spend all the time and money on paper and postage it would have taken to answer all my faxes, which ended in "I expect your answer in writing."
So, friends, I got this awful woman's attention! Thanks to us in The Resistance, Republicans are running scared.
Good.
They should run scared, after what their fat boi in the White House keeps saying he wants to do to us. He has us running scared, so the least we can do is give them a little taste of their own bad medicine.
GOOD.
Like the hacked-up hairball on comrade tRumPEWtin's haid, tRumpcare is the zombie that will not die.
Unless we fight it, that is.
Friends, this is why I love following George Takei on Twitter: he tweeted trumpcaretoolkit.org for us to call and tweet targeted members of Congress to reject repealing the ACA once and for all.
I've already done all the tweets. It takes a few attempts because Twitter will only let you send so many at a time. After it refuses to send one of the tweets, just wait an hour or so and resend it and work your way down the list until it balks again. I think it took me three rounds total to get all the tweets sent.
We killed tRumpcare last time; tRumpcare 2.0 is even worse--even more cruel--so, if we fight just as hard, we should be able to kill it again. Please, friends--don't let this opportunity slip. I heard on CNN that we're already close to killing it--we just need one more Republican to vote "no," and even the corporate chickenshit Dems have no intention of supporting the bill.
Thank Atheist God for small wonders.
With that, allow me to slawg on with the blawg.

M00bies!
Friends, I love Randi so much. She give you the n00z you need in depth, but she's funneh, too. This video is insane...chimpie's ethics advisor, Richard Painter, who's a career Republican, has called tRump-Russia "treason" and called for cheeto benito's impeachment on Joy-Ann Reid's show on MSNBC. He has referred to what's been done as "espionage" and confirms that a foreign power undermined our democratic process. Painter also said that Michael Flynn accepted emoluments and lied--a criminal offense. Painter also called out tRump for taking foreign emoluments and not disclosing his taxes. He chided Republicans for covering up all these offenses and not working with Democrats to get to the bottom of it all. And did I say that Richard Painter is a career Republican?!??
This will make your day!
Of course, as a Republican, tRump has no qualms with the idea of owning people...
I gno! Let's sell our entire future for a few quick bux today...!
So, tRump and Co. both lie and are st00pit...?!
Unreal. tRump really wants to be a dictator. In reality, though, he doesn't hafta accomplish one everlovin' thing to satisfy his ickle base--all he hasta dew is tell them he did it. They'll believe it!
Then again, tRump isn't all that concerned about actually keeping his working-class base happy. He's all about systematically destroying them, just like in that song he loves so much: "The Snake."
More on moron Flynn...and how his name seems to panic trump deze daze
So. The Government actually advertised Mar-a-Lago...
Have you noticed tRump's weird American flags? Ever? He lurves the 39-star flag! But there is no such official American flag. Ever! tRump is all about messaging. I wonder what he's trying to say...
She is such a piece of bleached-blonde trailer-trash chickenshit...
tRump is panicking about Russia
More on morons voting against their own interests
Hasan Minhaj was sooooo funneh at the WHCD...!
Ba-hahahahaha!
Yay--another Randy Rainbow!!
