Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for April 23, 2023

Wasn’t Tucker one of the tour guides?

What I saw, with my own two eyes, was just a fantasy? I guess crushing that cops head in the door was just good clean fun…sigh

Still no charges or sanctions on the members doing the recon tours just prior to the 6th? Only in America, you are too weak to do anything about seditionists trying to overthrow your government. It’s like you want it to happen.

Is this supposed to be Faux News??

Sure looks like it.

ha haha hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Did I not understand the punchline or does it not matter that the chair is now empty? Where’d he go?!?!? ;)

And to think, FAUX just paid $¾billion to bring you this.

Well, the US taxpayer will be pitching in, because the settlement will be deducted as a business expense.

FAUX news is now lying by omission—no news for their victims about how they were lied to.

Pontius Pilate asked, “What is truth?”

He received an answer not.

“Fox’s continued commitment to the highest journalistic standards.”

Impossible for anyone to say with a straight face.

Jan 6 was:

a) a riot by Antifa

b) an orderly tourist visit by MAGA Patriots

c) dunno, what else could it possibly be?

“Inspired” is the key weasel word they can use to avoid any lawsuits.

*ucker Carlson/ Sh!t Hannity Productions spare no expense. $787,000,000 for this one.

Tonight, on “What a Fool Believes”…by the Dubious Brothers.

“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose/ By any other name would smell as sweet

Fox has taken 2 measures to ensure journalistic integrity (very hard to write that with a straight face). First, there will be an attorney sitting next to “news” reporters to immediately correct future lies and delusions they spread. Second, there will be a “lie” jar. Reporters will be required to kick in a few bucks every time they spread lies and delusions to go towards future defamation suits Fox loses … /s

So, kinda the way the Germans made tours of other European countries in the 40’s ?

Please show the magic moment when when the tourist defecated on Nancy’s desk ? Fox is all poopoo all the time.

LOL! hang WITH Mike Pence! NOBODY wants to hang with Pence! not even “mother”, i bet!

70 million trumpster fire voters, is this how your are demanding Faux present the news?:

I’m guessing this was already submitted before the Dominion payout.

Tucker, Scab like, Krypto-Fascist, MAGA-ite.

The officers all had tears in their eyes!

Fact checking this now. …on a more serious note, how are you leaving out the white indian nimrod?

So a guy mentioned that a network glitch wasn’t reported on the Azure web site, i joked that the 800 million settlement also wasn’t on Fox’s web site. The Limbaugh fan who works with us went into a long rant full of links to conspiracy sites. We didn’t engage with him. It’s probably one of the 5 stages…

Fox’s Talking Mouths have ambition and arrogance instead of integrity. That makes their jobs so much easier.

Yeah, right! And if you swallow that codswollop, I have a nice bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

This is FAR too accurate of a depiction of the FAUX Noise type of spin to be truly funny…

nailed it, GT!

We were watching the live feed, in real time, on Jan 6, frozen and horrified at the violence and mayhem taking place. The coverage, at first, was showing the smaller crowd on the side opposite of the building from the main action. That mob appeared to be breaching the building first so they were being focused on.

We were floored by the coverage coming from inside once they got in. We commented on the weird disconnect between the crush outside, breaking windows and doors to get in, and then the tourist-like decorum of folks calmly parading through the hall. It was a stream of giddy people who were mostly obeying the ropes, chatting, laughing, taking selfies and video of the scene and hall, all with the guards watching and even smiling along, just like it was a normal day on the tour. The guards were even chatting and politely showing them out!

We kept yelling at the TV, incredulous why weren’t they all being arrested? What aren’t you calling for back up? Why aren’t you doing anything? They aren’t supposed to be there!! They broke a police line and broke in! Don’t you know what is happening on the other side!!??

I turned to my spouse and said, “This is just bizarre! Maybe the guards are trying to not escalate things because they are out numbered, or….. oh my God?! Could the “guards” just be plants for the camera, and are actually in on it?”

The pieces started to fall into place, “I bet this crowd is the decoys. I’m guessing they were given careful instructions for when they got in to be calm, be respectful, and just walk through, don’t make a scene, and to make it look like the whole thing was just a standard protest to prove they have power, and can’t be locked out of the People’s house.” A false flag for the actual seditious agenda unfolding across the building.

I went on, “How much you wanna bet Fox goes on and uses this video to prove it wasn’t a violent riot?”

I wish I had the same prescience with my lottery numbers.

We cannot send Rupert back to Australia because they do not want him but how about we send him 1/2 and let him swim the rest?

Next week, “Hitler Tours Europe”.

Wife and I were just talking about this, the 41,000 hours of video that reportedly proved that 1/6 was nothing more than “legitimate political discourse.” It’s classic conservative numbnut stuff. A big production is made over some bit of news that will prove after all that the numbnuts were right about some, say, conspiracy theory all along. They present the information, in this case, what, about 7 minutes of video (from 41,000 hours!!!). Talking-head numbnuts sit around and explain the devastating significance of what’s being revealed as per the Libs. The bit of news gets passed around on social media and on the numbnut news outlets for a few days. (Think video clips of Rand Paul smarmily accusing Dr. Fauci in a hearing of being the devil incarnate.) And in no time, even the numbnuts realize that their latest gambit makes them look like numbnuts, and they drop it. Yet, it never ends, for now they have to go looking for something new or attempt to resurrect something old. If Hunter Biden’s laptop were an old dog, it would have three legs, no teeth, be deaf and blind, be incontinent, and have failing mental capacities, but it still wouldn’t be put down.

You are so great and so spot on that you’ll be banned in Florida.

That’s because Tucker is like Trump: Stuck in a delusional fantasy and hell-bent on keeping the political divide going.

This strip really isn’t funny because with today’s A.I. “deepfaking” technology, the footage from January 6 could be altered to produce what Trudeau came up with here. And people would fall for it.

The Trumper version.

Remembering that it was all enabled by defacto GOP Party leader Mitch McConnell, down to the state level. Most still stand behind Trump, but don’t look to the state’s press to hold them accountable or inform their citizens on anything more than sports and restaurant openings. At this rate, it’s looking like their first attempt at an insurrection was just a practice run for 2024.

Has anyone told Republicans that “history is written by the victors” means that they have to win?

Doesn’t change the fact that they were let in.

Yet another case where the expendable foot soldiers get held to account and the leaders (or absentee leader of the insurrection, Cadet Bonespurs) will likely walk.

Tucker got it right. Jan 6 was “mostly a peaceful protest,” just like the BLM riots.

And the Beer Hall Putsch was just guys going out to have a beer.

Right up there with the movie of Hilter’s fall road trip of 1939.

And when ‘Agent Provocateur’ Ray Epps was reached for comment he said with a wink and a nod, “shhhhhh!”

Funniest “Doonesbury” in ages!

A lot more believable than what was portrayed by the kangaroo court.

Of course. I remember every detail.

A much more valid representation of what happened that the crap from the demo Jan 6th liars committee

Yeah, they were so “meek and orderly” and with their “peaceful tourism” that they caused several million dollars worth of damage to the Capitol building. The Capitol police did not injure themselves.

A fairy tale that the MAGA bunch wants us to believe.

The “meek and orderly sight seers” heard what they wanted to hear from Rump and that’s why they were willingly backing a two-time loser. Let’s not forget, Rump lost not once but twice.

This is about as accurate as ‘mostly peaceful protesters’ burning a police precinct, a post office, and several businesses in Minneapolis to the ground.

The amazing part, during the 60s riots in DC, they had 5 gallon buckets of dishwashing soap by the doors and in hall closets; it mixes well with marble floors and when you add water does wonders to breathing and eyes. But those who do not read history are doomed to repeat it, only dumber!

A lot of gullible right wing idiots here today, I see.

I think I heard they dropped more than a candy wrapper.

Just got a breaking news popup that Tucker Carlson and Fox News have “parted ways”!

This one probably pushed FOX to fire him….

Annnddd! He’s out at Fox. (Mutual agreement, my patoot!)

He might go back to being a tour guide. He needs a new job—Fox just fired him for being an incompetent journalist.

Not any more…

If Fox owes Carlson any money on his contract,they should legally attatch it to help pay off the judgement that Carlson’s lies cost them in the first place
