So You Say You Want a Revolution

The new Bernie Bro Book is coming out later this month:

According to publisher Henry Holt, the former Democratic presidential candidate advises young people “to fight for a progressive economic, environmental, racial and social justice agenda that creates jobs, raises wages, protects the environment and provides healthcare for all”. Wow, doesn’t that make your head spin?

If I understand the book’s format correctly it’s a graphic novel on how to complete the communist transformation of America. Originally illustrated by Barack Hussein Obama, this edition contains all new Bernie Bro graphics.

The book features helpful infographics and illustrations in the hopes of breaking down complex issues like income inequality, climate change, healthcare, law enforcement reform, prison system reform and student loan debt so that students know what they're up against and how best to tackle these problems. – Teen Vogue

Because everyone knows that the best way to breakdown complex issues for people who don’t read real books is with “helpful infographics and illustrations.”

"The current generation of young people is the smartest, most idealistic, and least prejudiced generation in the modern history of the United States," Sanders writes.

Or at least they’ve been told they are the “smartest, most idealistic, and least prejudiced generation in the modern history of the United States” since the minute they were born.

"This is a generation that is prepared to think big and move this country in a very different direction than we have been traveling for years."

That’s debatable, given the recent 8 year occupation. I just hope the kids think about this whole revolution thing very carefully before launching; revolutions don’t always turn out as anticipated (e.g. Russia circa 1917, Arab Spring circa 2010) and then someone has to clean up the mess.

*sigh* Everything old is new again - and not really in a good way.

Solar Eclipses Are Racist

Or in the immortal words of Father Guido Sarducci:

“It’s all-a politics.”

Even the path of the upcoming solar eclipse, according to Boston Globist, Matt Rocheleau, is about political sides:

In the article that we’d like to think was tongue in cheek, but can’t be sure, Matt asks “Is the eclipse throwing shade at Clinton supporters?” The Twitterverse was quick to respond.

Indeed, the Hillary Eclipse would follow no known set astronomic physics - or rules of any kind  for that matter – and that would make it far more awesome: breaking the celestial glass ceiling so to speak.

And I don’t know if this means anything or not but I would point out that the Mormon Trail also cut overwhelmingly through areas that voted for Trump.

I suppose that could indicate some sort of collusion on Trump’s part with one of our other sworn enemies, Mitt Romney. More likely, all it means is that there will be a lot of folks clinging to their guns and religion along the path of totality of the August 21st solar eclipse.

FLOTUS Friday August 4

I know many of you are feeling that there is a disturbance in the universe. It feels like the Evil Empire has committed to indicting the ham sandwich in order to keep it’s fight with the Republic alive.

….But it’s Friday people! FLOTUS Friday to be specific; we have more important issues to address.

Today FLOTUS Friday is taking on the Left’s ridiculous attempt to convince us that “super-sized” models are just as beautiful, just as attractive, just as desirable  (and much more attainable!) as the traditional super model. We all know that’s simply not true,

Super model Melania in her Sports Illustrated day v. Super-sized Tabria Majors in hers: I report, you decide

But committed leftists could no more admit the obvious – that some people have a perfect 10 body while most of us do not –  than they could admit that most terrorists are Muslims. Nor could they concede that this disparity of pulchritude on the Venus/Adonis scale (trigger! white privilege!), while unfair in the cosmic sense, is neither misogynist nor racist.

Yeah, I’m not finding red-haired blue-eyed Tess Holliday any more a “perfect 10” than her brown skinned super-sister Tabria. Does that make me a racist and a misogynist?

For more on this subject I refer you to Everybody Needs To Stop The ‘Plus-Sized Models Are Awesome’ Garbage with an eye warning: there are videos.

Men want to look at those women because, generally speaking, we don’t see them walking around the streets. That’s why they’re supermodels. It’s because women like them rarely exist. I see women like Majors on my walk to lunch.

I understand that this garbage is done to push a social narrative and nobody has the balls to criticize out of fear of being called a bigot or much worse. If I’m the only one willing to carry this banner and fight the good fight then so be it.

I can no longer allow this to happen, and nobody in America should tolerate it either. Stop celebrating obesity and go back to giving me hot women in tiny bikinis. Is that too much to ask?

Indeed, if we wish to admire normal/average, all most of us have to do is peer into the mirror. Thank feminists the world over, and the Leftists who empower them, for redefining everything from beauty to gender. Well done relativists!  In your world words no longer mean anything and diversity requires the embrace of everything equally: good and evil, right and wrong, black and white. In our world, when people go to the beach, and that includes both men and women, when they cast their eyes about they’re less likely to let them rest on this:  

than this:

Yes, it’s superficial. That’s why they say beauty is only skin deep. It’s not a determination of your character, value or worth. It’s simply pleasurable. Something you’d really think Leftists would get since they seem to spend so much of their lives in search of it.

Waiting For Never

Remember Paul Krugman’s prognostication on election night, when it became apparent even to the New York Times that Donald Trump had won?

“If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never.”

Rain! Dammit!!

Two days later the Dow hit an all time high and 2 weeks later it hit 19K. In January it hit  20K, and in March, 21K. As of yesterday it had marched all the way to another all time high of 22K.

Paul Krugman, New York Times ‘economist’, was last seen praying for another market crash.

Still waiting, and praying, for “never” to arrive.

It might help if he prayed to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob instead of the god of global warming.

The Rabbit Hole Report

DISCLAIMER: “The Rabbit Hole Report” is a recurring feature of MOTUS A.D.. In certain circles it may be considered fake news but I prefer to think of it as extra-creative investigative journalism. Premised on the conceit that Donald J. Trump actually lost the 2016 election to Hillary Rodham Clinton, it is hoped that this alternate reality will provide temporary succor and comfort to #Democrats, #Progressives, #BernieBros, #RINOs and #NeverTrumpers. As for the rest of us who just want to #MAGA let it serve as a reminder that the fight is, was and always will be worth it because no matter what, the alternative would have been much worse.

What if there really is a rabbit hole? What if America had  tumbled down it last November? On Rabbit Hole Wednesdays, in an attempt to understand the mindset of Leftists who live in the Rabbit Hole where Hillary actually won the election, we will willingly enter that alternate universe to see how things are going. Today we look at how President Rodham (as Hillary calls herself now that she’s smashed the patriarchy) would have handled the developing crisis in Venezuela. Welcome to the Rabbit Hole:

Following a controversial election that reinstalled President Maduro to another term, he proceeded to remove all pretense of Venezuela being a democratic republic by arresting the opposition leaders. President Rodham reacted by announcing that she had just signed an Executive Order that made Venezuela the 51st state of the United States of America (sorry Ms.Puerto Rico - always the  runner-up, never Miss America).

President Rodham said her action was in keeping with the One World Order agenda  - begun with good intentions under President George H.W.Bush, cultivated under the guidance of Presidents Clinton and Bush II and deeply entrenched by President Obama. She also cited push-polls that indicated an overwhelming majority of Democratic voters approved of the takeover appropriation merger annexation of the former South American country. Congress deemed the good will demonstrated towards our South American neighbor in the NBC-NYT poll to be indicative of the peoples intent and waived the need for Congressional approval of the acquisition.

As the newest legal residents of the United States, Venezuelans will get food, electricity and toilet paper – all things they had prior to Venezuela becoming a socialist paradise – a $50 trillion loan backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury, and a partially filled-in voter registration card. In return the U.S.A. gets another left coast state that will reliably vote Democratic. Win Win.

Despite the action taken by Rodham, the besieged Venezuelan leader is unmoved and said his enemies are part of a vast international conspiracy against him, led by the woman he calls "Empress Hillary Clinton." "They don't intimidate me,” Maduro added, “the threats and sanctions of the empire don't intimidate me for a moment.” – ABC News

He continued by saying that despite growing international criticism he has “no intention of deviating from his plans to rewrite the constitution,” adding that he will now simply expand his plans to include the re-writing of the United States Constitution as well and plans to assume the role of dictator president of the merged empire republic when it’s completed. The White House has not responded to Muduro’s remark.

That’s because you’re not in Kansas anymore, Alice.

Tomorrow we’ll be returning to the surface and the plane will land somewhere in flyover country.

I See a Little Silhouetto of a Man – Scaramooch, Scaramooch!

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango

What’s a 10 letter word that rhymes with ‘vamoose’ and means essentially the same thing? Scaramooch. That’s right, Little Tony Scaramucci is gone in less time than it takes to perform Bohemian Rhapsody with a ukulele.

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me

Start at the 1:00 minute mark to watch Jake Shimabukuro - the Jimi Hendricks of the ukulele - perform this feat.

Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh, didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh, I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very fright'ning me
(Galileo) Galileo, (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo figaro magnifico
(I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me)
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let him go) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go) Ah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
(Oh mamma mia, mamma mia) Mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby!
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here!

Nothing really matters, anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
Any way the wind blows

220 Reasons We’re Not Tired of Winning Yet

It’s Monday, and in case you’re wondering what you should be grateful for this week, Gerard has assembled an impressive list: 220 MAGA Things: Trump @ Work |The First Six Months.

And while you enjoy not being tired of winning yet, I will be searching out an HVAC contractor to look at my  air conditioner that decided to go on vacation yesterday. And if I need a new one, I’ll be thankful that I can still buy one that is made in the USA.

It’s the Weekend; Please Sunday Responsibly

If you’ve lost track of the Awan Brothers scandal matter you can get caught up with Luke Rosiak, Investigative Reporter. He’s been following the story for the Daily Caller since it broke last February and the MSM first began ignoring it. Even though it contains all the elements of a great conspiracy plot: collusion, corruption, money laundering, ties to terrorists it was not deemed appropriate material for public consumption so therefore it was replaced by the far more compelling (for the MSM) Russia! Russia! Russia! meme.

In saner times I’m fairly sure this story would have been a dog whistle.

I guess it gives us something to look forward to now that the dog days of summer are about to descend on us.

But assuming you’d be sick of all this crap even if it weren’t summer, let’s do food. This is more of a concept than a recipe, but it’s one of my favorite summer sauces. It’s good on everything: crudités, bread dipper, pita chips, new potatoes - hot or cold, green salads, etc..

Roasted Red Pepper Sauce

1 ½  c. sour cream

1-3 tbls. roasted red pepper puree: roast your own or use jarred, well drained,  enough to make the sauce a nice pink color

2 tbls. grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh basil, chopped

A dash of cayenne to taste – or you can skip altogether

Salt to taste

 

Combine all ingredients and allow flavors to blend for at least an hour in the frig. Garnish with a basil sprig before serving.

Easy, peasy. I stole this idea from the world famous Zingerman’s in the People’s Republic of Ann Arbor where they used to sell this stuff for about $15 a pound. That tells you everything you need to know about Zingermans. And Ann Arbor.

Queuing up for a loaf of bread, just like in the motherland 

It should look something like this:

Now get out there and Sunday responsibly.
