Prickly City by Scott Stantis for August 16, 2020

Space, The final frontier

This is the voyage of Carman and Winslow

Their five week voyage

To explore strange, new super earth

To seek out new life, and a cool civilization

To boldly go where no girl and coyote have gone before.

Well, at least Scott is acknowledging the virus.

Bonus points: He hasn’t called it the Chinese virus (or any other variant), either.

They can go to Georgia, where everything is peachy. Day 156.75 of the Georgia recovery. Yeee-haw!

171,000 dead. And counting.

And all Trump Disciples believe Their Messiah’s responses have been superb, better than anyone else in the world could have done.

’We’re bringing drugs. We’re bringing crime. We’re rapists. And some, they assume, are good people.’

On Thursday, President Trump flatly admitted he opposes aid to the Post Office because he wants to prevent mail-in voting. "They want three and a half billion dollars for the mail-in votes. ✁

Now they need that money in order to make the Post Office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots," he said on Fox News.

“But if they don’t get those two items that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting because you they’re not equipped to have it.”

✁

There we have it, folks: Trump now openly admits he is sandbagging the Post Office to prevent Americans from voting by mail.

Obstructing the ability to vote of the American people is a crime at the federal level and in every state.

Not for the first time, the president has confessed to criminal acts on television.

Now, Trump defenders will no doubt claim that the president is just trying to prevent voter fraud. This is a ridiculous argument for three reasons.

First, the president does not get to prevent certain kinds of voting just because he alleges there is fraud happening. ✁

✁

Second, Trump is lying. We know he’s lying because countless studies have found mail-in voter fraud to be virtually nonexistent compared to the number of ballots cast, because it doesn’t even make sense as a way to commit election theft, and most of all because Trump himself has voted through the mail repeatedly — in 2017 and 2018 in New York, and just this week for the primary election in Florida. ✁

✁

Voting by mail is so trivial for the USPS that it is necessary to seriously damage the agency to render it incapable of carrying it out. ✁

States also all have (non-federal-pardonable) laws against stealing elections, it turns out. ✁

If Hillary Clinton was President, we would now have had 10 Senate hearings into why 300 people had died from COVID-19.

the * reads – “especially if you’re from the United States.”

Thanks Donnie.

Maybe we can convince them to just distinguish from our voter registrations.

Look at the bright side. You ran out of oxygen a long time ago.

Just leave your money and go.

Much like New Zealand; but it still didn’t work.

Thoughts for a Sunday.

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I consider myself a Christian.

Holden Awn made a comment, above, which got me thinking.

Often held against Christians is that we often fall short of our own expectations. For that, non-Christians like to call us hypocrites.

Yet, if we look closer at the scriptures, particularly when the Savior calls someone out as a hypocrite, what do we see? People who know better but are deliberately obfuscating that they are ignoring the commandments.

In my humble opinion, the label “hypocrite” was not meant for the average Joe Blow who tries yet has setbacks.

The label “hypocrite” was intended for those who know better, yet don’t bother to try at all!

Have a blessed day!

Washing your hands in hot lava is how you get bony fingers!

And this is the time that the US military chooses to announce that they’re seriously investigating the UFO reports of their members?

Is there a connection I’m not aware of?
