Florida Republicans Pave the Way for Trump to Obtain Casino License


Florida Republicans Pave the Way for Trump to Obtain Casino License: 
After a controversial deal was negotiated by close Trump ally Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.), Florida legislators have approved a legislative package that will dramatically expand gambling in the state as well as set the stage for former President Donald Trump to pursue a casino license for his ailing Doral Golf Resort.  The deal and legislation also include language that bars the Seminole Tribe from ever opposing a casino at the former President’s Doral resort.

Perfect idea, given that the Trump family has such a flawless record managing casinos.  Leave it to Florida to bend all the rules, just to allow the Trumps to bankrupt another gambling hall.  Seems that in DeSantis’ Florida, all you have to do is “grease some palms” and you’ll get whatever you want.  And, as we all know, Florida is well known for its “palms.”  Hell, and while you're at it, why not really show your appreciation, and throw in a big bunch of juicy tax breaks too!


Of course, all this could become a wee bit complicated, in the event that Trump’s massive legal problems in New York resulted in a felony or two, given that most states do not permit convicted felons to be casino operators.  Of course, in a place like Florida, being a convicted felon may actually be an asset - not an impediment.  Gee, I wonder who’ll be bankrolling this lovely venture anyway?  Russia? Turkey? Saudi Arabia? North Korea?   

 

Call me clairvoyant, but I can see it all now, “The Donald J. Trump - Presidential Library, Casino, and Massage Parlor.”  Oh hell, why stop there?  May as well just go ahead and grant Trump a license for prostitution also.  Nothing like “one-stop shopping” for all your vices.  Anyway, one thing’s for sure, under the expert guidance of Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Republicans, the state is now well on its way to transitioning from “Florida” - into “Bananastan.”

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...

Elon Musk Calls for the Prosecution of Anthony Fauci

Over the weekend, Elon Musk took to his Twitter account to call for the prosecution of infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, endorsing a convoluted, right-wing conspiracy theory that claims Dr. Fauci financed the COVID-19 pandemic.   Musk then proceeded to mock transgender people by adding “My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci.” Gee, the “world’s richest right-wing troll” said what?  Now, I realize it's a really low bar, but I think we’ve finally found someone who actually knows less about pronouns - than Herschel Walker.   Not to be critical, but a good sign you may have a wee bit too much money on your hands, is when you blow 44 billion dollars, just to call people names. Oh sure, I’m positive Elon Musk, like any right-wing crusader, gets a real kick out of using his Twitter to “Own the Libs.”  OK, I get that, but just who does he suppose is actually buying his friggin' cars, anyway?   I’m pretty sure it isn’t Trump’s toothless, MAGA half-wits who are fillin...
