We are told by by several GOP politicos – including Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso and Majority Leader John Thune – that the Dirty Old Turtle is not just alive but well. They claim to have spoken with him for “20 minutes.” A picture of the Dirty Old Turtle looking at least a decade younger than his 84 years and sitting upright in his hospital bed, wearing blue jeans, has also been released.
This is, the public has been assured, proof of life. Well, we’ll see. If McConnell – the Dirty Old Turtle – actually is alive and well, we ought to be seeing him soon, back in the Senate. If the Dirty Old Turtle isn’t alive – or well – then these people who said otherwise ought to be indicted and prosecuted for various crimes, since it would be criminal to knowingly lie about the Dirty Old Turtle being dead or essentially dead since he is a senator and when a senator dies, there are immediate consequences, such as his or her replacement.
The Weekend at Bernie’s thing can only be maintained for so long. You can put dark sunglasses on a corpse and use strings or wires to make him wave hello. But even embalmed corpses start to rot after a few days and keeping a body on ice is hard to do when that body also has to be convincingly displayed.
All of this is just another manifestation of the now-reflexive dishonesty of the times. “COVID” metastasized what had been a kind of slow-growing cancer. Instead of suspicion they were lying to us, we saw they were blatantly lying to us. It’s not been the same since then and probably never will be, again. Not, at least, until this rotten structure – lousy with termites – collapses into a stinking heap and the heap gets bulldozed into a landfill and we start over, again. That’s what happened 250 years ago this July. It is what almost happened, again, 161 years ago – when the Southern Confederacy made its failed attempt to separate itself from the “union.” That word has taken on an almost holy connotation, as in holy matrimony. Marriage is indeed a sacred thing and ought not to be entered into lightly. It also ought not to be a permanently binding contract with no exit clauses.
Right now, all of us (well, at least half of us) are stuck in a very bad “marriage.” We are bound to a system that hates us and uses us and abuses us. One run by people like the Dirty Old Turtle and the recently but not dearly departed Senator from Tel Aviv. And Trump, for that matter. He is something like the person you married who turned out not to be what you thought you were marrying. A serial liar and cheater; a betrayer of promises and just an overall vile person. How do we divorce ourselves from him? From all of them? It will not be by getting “married” to more such people, who are the only kind of people we’re allowed to “marry.” It’s as if we’re contestants in a coercive Dating Game and have to pick Bachelorette One Two Or Three. There is no option to pick none of them – or some other Bachelorette of our own choosing.
Tucker Carlson touched on this recently in a talk he had with Mike Adams – the Natural News Guy. He talked about being exasperated by the bad marriage we’re all stuck in. At least, those among us who do not want to be stuck with an abusive spouse. I recommend listening to the conversation.
Meanwhile, we’ll see whether the Old Dirty Turtle surfaces. My money says he won’t. And then we’ll see what.

‘The middle east continues to burn under the administration of the self-proclaimed “President of Peace”. Donald Trump says he’s “reinstating” the US blockade on Iranian ports after reportedly green lighting Saudi Arabia to reignite its war on Yemen.
Trump and his handlers built a whole political platform out of “no more endless wars” and then immediately changed the Defense Department to the Department of War and started launching never ending wars.
Being a Trump supporter in 2026 is like staying best friends with a man who stole your wife. He’s deceived and betrayed you at every turn and you’re still swinging from his nuts? That’s cucky, humiliating behavior.
He promised to end the wars, and instead he started a new war.
He promised the Iran war would be over in a few weeks, and months later it shows no sign of stopping.
He promised to put America first, and instead he’s putting Israel first.
He promised to cut government waste, and he’s pouring unfathomable amounts of treasure into the military-industrial complex.
He promised to drain the swamp, and he became the single most corrupt president in US history.
He promised to fight the deep state, and went on to promote the longstanding agendas of the most evil people in Washington and Langley which even his terrible predecessors had resisted.
These are all objective, indisputable facts. If you disagree with any of them, it’s because you’re performing ridiculous mental contortions to justify your groveling support for a man who has betrayed you.
It’s so self-debasing. Get up off the floor, pull your tongue back into your head, and have some fucking dignity.
Everyone currently saying “I disagreed with Lindsey Graham on many things, but” is telling you they didn’t actually disagree with Lindsey Graham all that much.
“I disliked his politics, but — “ You liked his politics a lot more than I did, that’s for damn sure. That’s why you are sad that he is dead while I am happy.
If you’re in any way sad that a 71 year-old warmongering psychopath died, it’s because you didn’t care about his victims. You didn’t care about the populations he was constantly pushing to incinerate with high-tech war machinery. If you did, you wouldn’t feel inclined to mourn the passing of their abuser.
If you’re expressing condolences for Lindsey Graham’s death, you’re saying you care more about looking like a kind and caring person than you care about actually being one.’

Very well-said, David – thank you!
That was Caitlin Johnstone who wrote that.I should have made that plainer. She writes a lot of stuff like that. She’s real antiwar. I’m on board with her about that, just not so much with all the global warming/climate change stuff she also believes in. She’s not really anything like a libertarian. Closer to a Marxist really. But I’ve had to spend enough time inside the head of a Marxist (Christopher Hill) to know they’re not always wrong about every particular thing.
Indeed, David –
It’s respect for truth and facts that matter. A person who does not respect facts is a person who does not respect truth; such a person is an ideologue; a fanatic – and there is no possibility of dialoguing with them. There are people like that in both parties and – arguably – that makes them members of the same party in a fundamental way.
The reason I had to spend a lot of time inside a Marxist’s — Christopher Hill’s — head was because I *was* going to do my Master’s thesis on some aspect of the English Civil War(s), and at the time he was pretty much the undisputed 800-pound gorilla on that subject.
Roger, David!
I spent some time in a similar Gulag myself!
‘Have you noticed how the liberal establishment hasn’t been nearly as emotional and outraged about Trump’s second term as they were about his first?
Now that he’s the president who bombed Iran, the entire western political/media class is cool with him.
The term “Trump Derangement Syndrome” has always been used by the MAGA crowd as a blanket pejorative to protect the president from criticism, but during Trump’s first term it wasn’t entirely unfair.
You’d see Democrats shrieking their lungs out over Trump doing things that other US presidents did all the time like cozying up with dictators and tyrants.
They’d lose their minds over relatively sane things like Trump talking about moving troops out of Syria.
The whole Russiagate thing was liberals going bat shit over a crazy conspiracy theory that caused them to push for the escalations against Russia which ultimately gave rise to the war in Ukraine.
We’re not seeing any of that in Trump’s second term. That extra layer of screeching emotionality simply isn’t there.
There are no Russiagates or emotional support Maddows this time around.
Democrats hate Trump, but they hate him about as much as they’d hate any Republican president. The emotional response to his second presidency is wildly, wildly different from the first.
Which is nuts, because he’s quantifiably far worse this time around.
His domestic policies are much more tyrannical.
He’s as evil a warmonger as the White House has ever seen.
He’s so corrupt that he’s just openly admitting to being bought and owned by Zionist oligarchs while making his family a fortune using the power of his office. Now that he doesn’t have to worry about re-election, he’s being completely nakedly monstrous.
And what’s creepy is that’s why the liberal establishment is so much more mellow about him.
They’re no longer worried that he’s going to promote “isolationist” foreign policy and roll back the US war machine.
He went to war with Iran, so they like him now. Because they know he’s fully compliant.’

I talked to the turtle today for 20 minutes
If ever I’m tempted to take politics seriously, all I have to do is look up and watch the fake clouds being manufactured (I get up early, to beat the heat – as they do) and I will come to my senses. The need never arises, however. To get crop dusted on a daily basis – your own funny money transformed into heavy metals, smart dust and god knows what – to take any of this seriously means you’re on a low ladder rung of understanding, for real.
Max –
I’m wondering why you never respond to the points I have raised about Our Greatest Ally vis-a-vis Swtizerland?
This shit started with Israeli PM, Ariel Sharon, genocidal maniac.
“Ariel Sharon died of heart failure caused by kidney failure, which resulted from the complications of an eight-year coma. He was incapacitated by a massive stroke in 2006 and passed away on January 11, 2014, at the Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan, Israel.”
I always felt he had to lay in a coma for years to see all the murders he committed, all the moms and children he slaughtered. Long before the bastard Benjimin Nutjobyahoo, General Sharon was slaughtering thousands.
Speed forward to this year, March 2nd, Iran claims to have hit BB’s home, killing a bunch of generals and his brother. Next thing we see are these fake ass Ai videos of BB at Tel Aviv coffee shop with 7 fingers. BB’s still alive Goyim, nothing to see here. The entire MSM goes along with the charade.
Just one big problem, the year before, BB came to see Trump at least 6 times, a record for foreign heads of state – many said BB was briefing Trump on the attack plans in person. BB has not been back to the District of Criminals with his laundry. Yes Virginia, our government is so damn whored to Israel, Netanyahu intentionally humiliates his Amerikan Goy slaves by ordering them to do his laundry.
So what I say is show me the proof that Netanyahu is still alive, with Israel collapsing I find it mighty strange the Khazar mafia don has not come back to petition Congress for more money and weapons, and to hold up more signs at a UN security council meeting claiming Iran is 2 days from a nuke.
The Zionists are playing games with old turtle head, holding his seat open to keep Massie from taking it. Same shit over and over because criminals run our government.
My money was on Sharon in the newsroom Dead Pool. I never was able to cash in.
“Schumer urges US Senate to pass Graham’s Russia sanctions bill following senator’s death

“It’s as if we’re contestants in a coercive Dating Game and have to pick Bachelorette One Two Or Three. There is no option to pick none of them – or some other Bachelorette of our own choosing.
“Tucker Carlson touched on this recently in a talk he had with Mike Adams – the Natural News Guy. He talked about being exasperated by the bad marriage we’re all stuck in. At least, those among us who do not want to be stuck with an abusive spouse. I recommend listening to the conversation.”
Unfortunately, don’t trust Tucker any more than Trump or “nat’l review.” Carlson worked for Fox news for 10+ years, lured thousands of people to DC with his “kracken” reporting on “stolen election evidence” that he himself didn’t believe according to texts he sent at the time, and Mike Johnson gave him the tapes of January 6 to review. Even though he turned against the Iraq War in 2004 according to WIKI, he only became suspicious of 911 in 2020/2021. Why if TPTB go to such lengths to control fed, state and local gov’t, Turning Point USA, and “mainstream media,” wouldn’t they control the “alternative media” even more so?
WIKI: TC’s father “became the director of Voice of America, president of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the U.S. ambassador to the Seychelles,[41] and more recently a director at the lobbying firm Policy Impact Strategic Communications.[42] Carlson’s brother, Buckley Peck Carlson, later Buckley Swanson Peck Carlson, is nearly two years younger[43] and has worked as a communications manager and a Republican Party political operative.[44][45]…After college, Carlson tried to join the Central Intelligence Agency, but his application was denied, after which he decided to pursue a career in journalism with the encouragement of his father, who advised him that “they’ll take anybody.” (especially when the CIA tells them to)
There was lego video recently could have been the one they did for the 250th Birthday with a line “you were quiet when there should have been a riot.” Found out today only places still have nat’l guard are dc, memphis and new orleans; the leftist cities rioted. When the right riots, like at Jan 6, it seems led right into a trap by the likes of Carlson, Trump, InfoWars, Gateway News Pundit, Epoch Times, QAnon, Mike Flynn, Roger Stone etc. [I sometimes wonder about this site.]
The Dating Game is an apt analogy. Except all of the contestants are serial killer Richard Ramirez

I’m not doubting that the turtle has been replaced, or at least is in the search for someone who looks similar enough to be surgically altered.
But the pic I saw was not a hospital bed. It was a reclining day chair. Those stable enough to be dressed and put in a chair and wheeled out into sunlight were. My dad at 93 was favored with one the second day after he got out of ICU. He still had several drips running, but spent much of the next week or so out in the sun room.
‘The Weekend at Bernie’s thing can only be maintained for so long.’ — eric
You know it’s bad when the WaPo — the Izvestia of the DC regime, playing tag team with the Pravda of the New York Slimes — admits in a headline that ‘McConnell took a photo with that day’s newspaper. The internet has questions.’
https://archive.ph/hOQST
Like former Soviet citizens, we must interpret the regime’s propaganda releases through small clues. Most stunning is that the words ‘conspiracy’ and ‘conspiracy theory’ nowhere appear in this article, per standard Operation Mockingbird procedure.
By this glaring omission, even the unreliable narrators of the WaPo are subtly — perhaps desperately — signaling, to those who have eyes to see, that things are not as they appear!
Yet the regime IS spreading dark theories about the sudden demise of Mitch’s fellow old poofter, Lindsey Graham:
‘A final autopsy is still pending. And GOP Sen. John Cornyn told reporters he would like to see Graham’s toxicology report released “to rule out any foul play” and put to rest any false theories spreading online.’
https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/13/politics/lindsey-graham-staffer-911-call
You gotta wonder how many times Lindsey and Mitch got it on in a Senate bathroom stall, using the signaling method of their former colleague Senator Larry “Wide Stance” Craig, who may have
mentoredbuggered them both. :-0Ha ha. You made my day reminding me about Senator Larry “Wide Stance” Craig.
All of these pols are depraved, bought-and-paid-for, compromised and controlled. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t be allowed in office.
Of course, with all that said, why was it a crime to give a signal to others that he was interested in a homosexual tryst? I never understood that.
My all time favorite was NJ Governor, Jim McGreevey. When he got busted cheating on his wife with a man, he figured he’d get ahead of it by holding a presser with wife (with which he had two kids) foolishly standing by his side and exclaimed: “I am a gay American!”
Bravo Governor McGreevey for your inability to control your sexual depravity and destroying your family! Bravo, sir!
Not just with a man … with an Israeli man, Golan Cipel, his so-called homeland security advisor. Better described in plain English as a spy.
Charlie Kushner (Jared’s father) set him up with McGreavy: (AI) “The connection between real estate developer Charles Kushner and Israeli political operative Golan Cipel is central to the historic 2004 political scandal that forced the resignation of New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevey. Kushner, a major McGreevey campaign contributor, sponsored Cipel’s U.S. visa, previously employed him as a marketing consultant, and helped arrange for Cipel to be appointed as the state’s Homeland Security adviser in 2002.”

And he signed the private property destroying law called the Highlands Act, the day before he resigned, which stole countless property rights from people/land owners/farmers in 3 counties in North Western NJ.
It was challenged in court to be unconstitutional (a taking), but was upheld by a corrupt judge that basically said there was a built in loophole that you could build a house on your land if you just paid the ‘tax’, which no one could afford but big developers.
I narrowly missed having my 131-acre farm in Sussex County included in that egregious ‘taking,’ premised on protecting urban water supplies up in the mountains.
Nevertheless, it was still subject to absurd NJDEP regulations requiring a 300-foot buffer zone from riparian areas, such the creek which ran through my property. No idyllic creekside home for you, peasant!
How dare you imagine intruding on nature that way? Who do ya think you are, Frank Lloyd Wright building another Fallingwater house over a pristine mountain stream?
That ain’t allowed no more.
I sold that farm to a mafia-connected couple in the ‘sanitation’ industry, and moved 2,000 miles away. Hope it’s far enough.
The thing is that the vast majority of the citizens of the USSR knew that they were being lied to and viewed the official mouthpieces with the contempt they deserved: “There is no truth in news and no news in truth” (it sounded even cooler in Russian). What percentage of the USSA population realizes that anything spewing forth from Faux Noise, MSDNC, C(IA)NN, NY Slimes, Washington Compost and most online “news” sources, both right and left are pure bullshit? If it is the majority I would be shocked.
I woke up this morning feeling a real lack of hope and my mood has not improved any.
“viewed the official mouthpieces with the contempt they deserved: “There is no truth in news and no news in truth” (it sounded even cooler in Russian). ”
(AI) “The classic Cold War-era joke about the two major Soviet newspapers is: “There is no news in Pravda, and there is no truth in Izvestia.” This pun relies on a translation of the papers’ names: Pravda translates to “Truth” (the official organ of the Communist Party), and Izvestia translates to “News” (the official daily of the Soviet government). The witticism highlights the heavy state censorship and propaganda that defined Soviet media.”
“A Soviet mother gave three kopeks to her son. She said, “Go to the newsstand, get a copy of Pravda for your father, Izvestia for me, and Komosol Pravda for you.” The boy took the coins and headed out to get the papers. Along the way, he saw his father who asked him where he was going. He told him, but the father shook his head and took the money from the boy. “We don’t need these. We have the radio.” The boy went back to his mother and told her what her father had said. She then gave him two kopeks and said, “Get Izvestia for me and Komosol Pravda for you.”
“But what about father?”
“That’s okay, he can wipe his ass with the radio.”
https://www.reddit.com/r/Jokes/comments/18bk8jo/going_to_the_soviet_union/
P.S. Glad it’s not only the Bible you mess up in translation. Also, just because these jokes exist doesn’t mean the majority of Russians used them and/or would not fight like hell if anyone, including US/Western Europe, ever attacked USSR.
Hope your day gets better.
“That’s okay, he can wipe his ass with the radio.”
That was a good soviet joke. I’m going to use that one.
If you have some more let us here know.
I’m quite certain that all these “people” have multiple body doubles. And also quite certain that given the late stage corruption of the American empire, that some of these geriatrics are on their second, third, or fourth iteration.
It doesn’t matter who the figurehead is, the place holder is fungible, and if they deviate from their masters’ wishes they will be just as easily replaced. Any election where more than 500 people participate, or where more than $100k is on the line, is corrupt.
“Right now, all of us (well, at least half of us) are stuck in a very bad “marriage.””
This is the libertarian’s mistaken assumption. In fact 99.99999% of us are in a bad marriage but it’s not 50% that recognize it but maybe 1%.
Most people sense things are wrong but they have a mental block to understanding why and how to solve it. As long as they can rationalize it by blaming team red or blue they’ll never break the cycle.
People are literally beaten, robbed and kidnapped (arrested, jailed) but still won’t properly blame the aggressor doing it. It’s “the system”, always was, always will be.
Yes, the evil of modern psychiatry, brainwashing and behavioral conditioning really works. Especially with modern media to install it.
As a teenager I was generally repulsed by the views and attitudes of my parents and those around them, not to mention what was being spewed forth by what they watched on TV. At that time I wondered if I was in fact crazy because it bothered me so. Over time I realize that I was in fact the one who was sane it was everyone else who was nuts-more like brainwashed, but is there really any difference?
If you were to ask what my feelings are after all these years I would say that I feel VINDICATED. Vindication is a small measure of sanity in a world gone mad.
Yes. I find watching any kind of main steam TV, especially the ads, incredibly disturbing to my soul.
Hi MQ,
I had similar experiences in my formative years, whenever I would express a dissident opinion my parents would respond “Oh, so you’re right and the whole world is wrong?” Yes, actually, I was.
Problem is that a good solid plurality from either side think they are in a good marriage when their side is in power. Some of it I can kind of get. The 2A single issue voters, for example. But most, from both sides and particularly the middle don’t have the intellectual heft to understand the modern economy, let alone downstream effects of political policies.
Universal suffrage has to go away before there is any hope. Which means there is no hope.
Two words:
Lenin’s tomb.
The turtle and the fake n gay Lindsey are l museum quality specimens of why the 17th amendment should be repealed.
Indeed, people really took it on the chin in 1913.
17th amendment
income tax
federal reserve
etc.
Meaning what?
Meaning there was a fundamental difference in how the federal, er, (((feral))) government, went thru the process of choosing senators for CONgress.
Wikipedia still has a decent explanation of this and the conclusions about the timing of the 17th amendment into the constitution, as well as other creations such as the (((federal reserve act))), for a banking organization that neither federal nor a a monetary reserve….
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventeenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
And one gets the idea and sees rhe substances that the complete takeover of the Feral government was a long term plan by the (((khazarian mafia))).
YMMV….
FAFO
thats stupid.
