Prickly City by Scott Stantis for January 16, 2021

Are we in KOOKYanne’s alternate universe??

I was hoping to see Scott‘s take on the insurrection on Monday.

Then I looked at my calendar and realized that, once again, I can‘t count!

So, I guess it‘s Groundhog Day for at least one more week…

Trump’s political capital has cratered. A Pew Research Center poll released Friday showed that 54% of Americans want to see Trump removed from office and 68% said they don’t want to see him continue to be a major national political figure in the years to come. His overall approval rating fell to 29%, the lowest it has ebbed during his presidency in the Pew poll.

We’ve been warned since the first time he came down that escalator to his rented crowd. We’ve been warned for years.

“We’ve been warned…” five f&%$ing years ago….

The Post Read These Comments: Mini22: “My wish is that in the future I go an entire day without Trump crossing my mind and I don’t even realize it.”

No, just the major one.

“It’s funny how everyone thinks Biden’s inauguration alone will magically solve every problem in existence.”

What a bizarre comment. maybe he’s manure bill’s little brother?

Until the 70 million, including Stantisfernuthin and Carmen, clean up their mess, the right-wing terrorism will continue.

As Darsan54 says above, Carmen, we were warned when he came down that escalator.

Maybe now you’ll listen?

Why do conservatives believe that oranges are magnetic, and that the Salvation Army is an invading force from the planet Salvatio?

I’m just asking questions here.

Mr. Stantis could have dropped this strip in any time during the past 4 years.

On Saturday, The Washington Post reported that police departments around the country are opening probes into officers accused of attending the pro-Trump “Save America” rally that devolved into a violent assault on the U.S. Capitol — a remarkable crack in the infamous “blue wall of silence” in police culture where brother officers act to defend their own.

“At least 13 off-duty law enforcement officials are suspected of taking part in the riot, a tally that could grow as investigators continue to pore over footage and records to identify participants. Police leaders are turning in their own to the FBI and taking the striking step of reminding officers in their departments that criminal misconduct could push them off the force and behind bars,” reported Kimberly Kindy, Kim Bellware, and Mark Berman. “The reckoning within police departments comes as plans for new demonstrations this weekend and on Inauguration Day are solidifying, with authorities warning of the potential for violence in state capitals. Participants are expected to protest election results that made Joe Biden president-elect.”

The officers, according to the report, are “under investigation for possible participation in the rioting, as well more than a dozen Capitol Police officers who may have assisted the mob that seized the Capitol. The officers — and at least one police chief — came from tiny departments with less than a handful of officers to large agencies with thousands on their force.”

Why were panic buttons removed before the riot?

I hate it when the President lays all his cards out on the table. They’re all in the trump suit…
