More insights from the load-bearing pillar of Midwestern culture!
Donald J. Trump has agreed to participate in a Q&A session at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on July 31st. No, your eyes are NOT playing tricks on you—Trump is gonna sit uncomfortably and probably squirm like a toddler in a room filled with Black journalists to talk about … awww. … fuck. I can’t even finish that sentence without imagining what could happen. The three journalists who are running this sesh are Semafor’s Kadia Goba, Fox News’s Harris Faulkner, and ABC News’ Rachel Scott.
I need to think about this one a bit, but my first reaction as a lifelong, unabashed cynic is that I don’t see this Q&A session as anything more than a stunt orchestrated by Trump’s team to make him more likable to Black voters. I highly doubt it’ll be the ‘gotcha’ moment we’re all hoping for. I wouldn’t be surprised if the major part of the participation agreement is that Trump’s team has a total say in what questions will be asked. Of course, he’ll slam Kamala Harris using coded language—that’s a given.
I’ve finally recovered from the Bacchanalian/pro-fucking whomever you want/drag queens-heavy/peens-on-parade/’sacrilegious’/rainy/EXTREMELY FRENCH opening ceremony for the Paris Olympics on Friday.
So many conservatives in this country (NOT FRANCE) had their shit-stained knickers bunched up because THE FRENCH WERE ACTING LIKE THE FRENCH. So many of these fucking triggered hayseeds considered the opening ceremony to be a direct attack ON THEM. WON’T THEY THINK OF THE AMERICANS?? WHY ARE THE FRENCH BEING SO FRENCH? DON’T THEY LOVE AMERICA?
I’m *almost* embarrassed for them because they don’t know dick about the history of, well, anything. But their ignorance was on full display with holy roller Evangelical dipshits like Candace Cameron Bure of ‘Full House’ fame, who is valiantly clinging to relevancy by posting on social media about how she was disgusted by the ‘attack’ on Christianity but she still loves the Olympics. Her dumbass brother also voiced his unwashed ass of an opinion to a bunch of rocks somewhere—or something. Oh, and Jodie Sweetin—also of ‘Full House’ fame said she’s an opening ceremony stan, so shutty your ‘mayo is too spicy’ chute, Candace. Go into your husband’s bedroom, turn off his porn, and have a lil dry hump sesh and fake it while he ‘rubs’ your little man in the boat through your Mamie Eisenhower nightgown and Depression-era pettipants. Leave the artistry to us.
While we’re on the subject of right-wing evangelical fuckery, the six-week abortion ban went into effect in Iowa on Monday at 8 am. The Iowa Supreme Court found the law to be constitutional! Hard to believe, innit??
Iowa now has the distinct honor of being the fourth scummy state in this country with a six-week ban, which means that Illinois will see more of an abortion boom, thanks to our neighbor states that hate women so much that they’re forcing women to drive across state lines for BASIC HEALTHCARE.
MEANWHILE, in the land of ‘NO MORE FUCKS TO GIVE AKA ILLINOIS,’ Gov. J.B. Pritzker basically told our neighbor states to fuck allllll the way off by signing into law an important AS FUCK measure—THE BIRTH EQUITY ACT— that will expand both private AND Medicaid coverage for abortion care AND by expanding the coverage for doulas, lactation consultants, and midwives. See, J.B. is also looking out for Black women in this state since they are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related medical conditions. Most of these changes will take effect on January 1, 2026, and doula and Medicaid changes happening on January 1, 2025.
No wonder Kamala Harris is vetting J.B. to be her VEEP—he actually gives a fiddler’s fart about Black Women.
Speaking of Kamala Harris, sooo many White men are lathered up about her that it’s comical and pathetic. Piers Morgan, in all his pasty, gin-soaked Englishman glory, whined on Fox News about how Harris is the most ‘left-wing Senator ever.’ Huh? Morgan is proving ONCE AGAIN that just because one speaks with a British accent, it doesn’t mean that he knows what the fuck he’s talking about. I would consider skydiving to get away from Morgan.
He, with the reptilian visage James Carville, opened up his sweet tea maw and stated the obvious, “Look, she’s gonna get slaughtered.” He said in an interview released Monday on PBS’s “Firing Line” with Margaret Hoover.
Uhhh… HAAA DOY! Everybody knows this, Smeagol/Gollum, which is why so many people have ALREADY mobilized. Hell, even the olds in The Villages are decorating their golf carts with Harris merch.
Dems appear to be ready for the shit-slinging from the Right. Harris HQ’s comms team is handling all things Trump quite well, IMHO.
Well, I’m off to hang with known undesirables.
Please keep it down to a dull roar,
xoxoxo

Julia Gray has fomented another sudden keyboard crisis as my fresh-squeezed Valencia juice (sans pulpo) blasted outta my nose before I could swallow (just leave that alone, JG) and I'm now dealing with a repetend GGGGGG ..... what a treasure we've found in this remarkable woman.
