Mulvaney is a throne-sniffer and fly eater - Paul Begala (w/bonus Dracula 1931 Renfield scene)

Paul Begala, today on CNN.com and in the best take-down ever calls Mick Mulvaney a ‘throne-sniffer’ and comes one step away from calling Mulvaney a fly-eater.

Let’s close that loophole:

‘flies, flies, poor puny things… who wants to eat flies?’

Paul Begala writes on CNN today:

My heart usually goes out to White House staffers. The hours are long, the challenges great. So it is with no joy that I offer this assessment of Mick Mulvaney's performance running Donald Trump's White House: it stinks.

In his press briefing today, Mulvaney revealed himself to be a yes-man when this President needs someone who can tell him no. The most important, most difficult, most loyal two words a White House staffer can use are: "No, sir."

Those words never seem to emerge from Mr. Mulvaney's mouth. Far from being a public servant, the acting chief of staff revealed himself to be a throne-sniffer of the worst order. If he were any more of a toady, he'd be catching flies with his tongue.

CNN is reporting that Trump would be silent on Hong Kong in exchange for dirt on Warren and Biden.

US can begin drowning witches while legal fight continues, Supreme Court rules.

Hear the joke where the Commander in Chief says a sailor in uniform 'works for the enemy'?

Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States of America. Speaking aboard the USS Wasp:

Trump asked the crew which type of catapult they prefer. He was met mostly with shouts of "steam," and joked that one crew member who shouted in favor of the electric system "works for the enemy."

For the past two years, the Navy’s plan to field electromagnetic catapults has been a pet peeve for Trump.

www.politico.com/...

This is a sailor, in uniform, aboard her or his own ship. Being the butt of a Donald Trump joke. And being accused of treason, all in four venomous words.

And nobody noticed, or if they did, just shrugged.

No to Nooses in Quilcene, Washington.

If you want to put up a reader board on the side of US 101 in Quilcene, WA that reads ‘USA FREEDOM VOTE TRUMP’ in front of your own home, that is your right. If you want to hang a noose from your window, I guess that is your right as well.

But you will be called out for it. Because we know what your noose represents. We are a progressive community in a progressive state and we will not let your hate go unanswered.

Sometimes we protest en masse, watching each others’ backs; sometimes we protest solo — and we find that our allies back us up (thank you for the cold electrolyte beverage in the hot Memorial Day sun). By carrying out a simple (almost*) silent protest we communicate to our community that we are aware, engaged, active, and strong.

If we can’t stand up to hate here we can’t stand up to hate anywhere. Which means we must stand up to hate here. Even if just for 3 hours, solo, on a small town corner in Quilcene, WA.

No great protest pics here, just one of the sign. Not posting the photo of the noose or the wannabe lynchmans’ home.

*When the best they have is accusing you of being from Port Townsend and engaging in sex acts with other consenting adults you can’t help but laugh and taunt them with ‘is that all you got?’
