MAGA Punks Mock Native American Veteran (UPDATED)

They must be teaching some powerful moral lessons over there at Covington Catholic High School, in Covington, KY.  This happened at yesterday's "March for Life" demonstration in DC, where the smirking Squiggy in the MAGA hat (of course) is taunting a Vietnam veteran Native American participating in the Indigenous Peoples March, cheered on by his pimple- faced, simpleton classmates (also sportin' MAGA hats):


The little proto-Republicans are at least faithful to their tribal creed that respect for the sanctity of life ends once the fetus exits the birth canal.  After that, malicious callousness to others (especially to those not like you) is perfectly acceptable.

As if that's not sickening enough, this comes two days after a photo showing some Zionsville (IN) Community High School losers throwing the Nazi salute in a social media post, and  two months after a group of Baraboo (WI) High School spalpeens did the same thing in a prom photo.

Here's the perfect historical reminder of this strain in our culture, nowadays aided and abetted by a malevolent shitheel in the White (Supremacist) House who provides the sociopathic role model:

BONUS:  If you're of a mind, here's the address of Covington Catholic High School and the email of the principal.  Also, it wasn't just the behavior of the little shits:  where were the adult chaperones or teachers, and were they enabling or encouraging the taunting?

BONUS II: Apparently this school has a history of cultivating racist brats. Children aren't born to hate: they're taught to.

BONUS III:

I honestly haven't stopped thinking about that MAGA kid all day - in part because I think so many of us have been on the receiving end of the face he was making: a smug, untouchable, entitled 'fuck you'.

UPDATE:  Smirking Squiggy and his deplorable family are pushing back on what happened. Why, they're the real victims here!  We'll just let Wonkette call b.s. on that.

Armed And Dangerous

This is the kind of violent lunatic that's going to light the fuse in this country some day:

Michael Scheuer says it is "quite near time" to kill American citizens who oppose Trump. 

Scheuer is a former senior CIA official and the author of the New York Times bestseller, Imperial Hubris. In a now-deleted blog post (cached version here) Scheuer singles out "Strzok, Comey, McCabe, Page, and Rosenstein; worshipers of tyranny, like the Democratic members of Congress, the Clintons, the FBI, and the Obamas; apparent traitors like Brennan, Hayden, and Clapper; all of the mainstream media; and the tens of thousands of government-admitted-and-protected, violent, criminal, and illegal immigrants." He looks forward to the "sheer, nay, utter joy and satisfaction to be derived from beholding great piles of dead U.S.-citizen tyrants is not one that will be missed if Trump does not soon do the necessary to save the republic."

Oh, and the Trump idolator is (spoiler alert!) a raging anti- Semite:

Much of Scheuer’s essay focuses on blaming what he deems to be problems in American politics on “Jewish-Americans, and their host of well-paid human assets,” but at the end, he issues a call to arms and advocates for right-wing terrorism...

Scheuer went off the cliff a while back, and predictions of his nadir have been sorely mistaken. This from 2014:

Scheuer’s career reached its terminal nadir last week, when he published a column endorsing an assassination of President Obama and Prime Minister David Cameron. In the modern media environment, it’s pretty hard to go too far. Advocacy of murder, however, does cross one of the last remaining lines. 

Neither terminal nor nadir, sadly. (Scheuer's a bloodthirsty little shit, isn't he?!)

What boggles is why this frothing loon (who was once in the highest echelons of the CIA) has not been living in an 8 x 10 padded cell for the last decade or so.  Why wouldn't this be a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 875 and 18 U.S.C. § 876?

Doubting Thomas

Reports are surfacing that Supreme Court Justice Clarence "Long Dong Silver" Thomas failed to report uber-wingnut wife Ginni's income on financial disclosure forms... for the past 5 years. According to Common Cause, ninny Ginni earned over $686,000 from the right-wing Heritage Foundation, a rather large (Long Dong Silver-esque) number that somehow Clarence failed to recall when filling out his financial disclosure forms - which are, of course, intended to flag any potential conflicts of interest. As some in the blogosphere are noting, what do you think would have been the reaction in the Drudge-ruled "mainstream media" if, say, Justice Breyer had had the same "lapse" of memory?
