Celebrity Doctor Mehmet Oz Announces Run for Senate as a Republican


Dr. Mehmet Oz, a Trump ally and TV personality who rose to fame as “Dr. Oz” on “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” has announced he is launching a campaign for the US Senate as a Republican in Pennsylvania.  Mehmet OZ is seen by many in the medical profession as an extremely controversial character, one who has made a living promoting pseudoscience “miracle” weight loss cures, questionable treatments for COVID-19, and discredited therapies - designed to turn gay people straight.

My goodness, you mean Dr. Oz is actually running for the senate?  Well, I have to admit - Dr. Oz and Donald Trump’s politics are definitely a match made in Purgatory.  And, what a surprise that a TV con artist, posing as a doctor, would choose to run as a Republican?  Of course, should he be elected, he won’t be lonely, that’s for sure.  He’ll be joining a stellar crowd of other GOP medical quacks, such as Paul Gosar, Rand Paul, and Ronnie Jackson - just to name a few.


All I can say is, “Toto, we’re definitely not in Kansas anymore.”  And, speaking of not being in Kansas, as it turns out - Dr. Oz isn’t even in Pennsylvania.  Hell, the guy lives in frigg’n New Jersey.  I mean, who knew the “yellow brick road” ran through New Jersey and Pennsylvania?  Of course, I’m sure Dr. Oz doesn’t see the fact that he doesn’t even live in Pennsylvania as a problem.  After all, Mehmet Oz is running as a Republican, and Republicans believe rules - are made for “other people.”

   

Anyway, it should be quite interesting to see how the good folks in the House “Trailer Park Caucus” will react to having a “Turkish Muslim” running for senate as a Republican.  Why, that ought to be almost enough to make folks like Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene consider going back on their meds again.  That said, Dr. Oz had better keep in mind that nobody gets elected as a Republican unless they first set off to see the Wizard - the “Wonderful Wizard of Mar-a-Lago."

  

Now, I have no idea how this senatorial race will turn out, but let’s remember Dr. Oz is a famous face from TV, who endorses all the quack remedies Trump MAGAs love, and that appears to be all it takes to get you elected in certain states these days.  As for me, well  - if I ever needed medical care, you better believe I’d call on Dr. Pepper, Dr. Scholl’s, Dr. Demento, Doc Holiday, Dr. Zhivago, Dr. Strangelove, Dr. Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll, and maybe even Mr. Hyde - before I’d ever consider calling Dr. Oz.

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...
