Republican House Seeks to Rename Dulles Airport After Trump


House Republicans have introduced new legislation to rename Washington Dulles International Airport after former president Donald J. Trump.  In a statement, Republicans declared, “As millions of domestic and international travelers fly through the airport, there is no better symbol of freedom, prosperity and strength than hearing ‘Welcome to Trump International Airport’ as they land on American soil.”


Wow, rename such an Important airport like Dulles International after Trump?  What for?  Is it going bankrupt?  Well, I guess that one way to ensure every flight is gonna be late.  Now, not to be critical, but I could perhaps understand naming a sewage treatment facility after Trump, but an airport - not so much.  Hey, now that I think of it, the idea of a “Donald J. Trump Sewage Treatment Facility” - really does have a certain “stench” to it.


Anyway, one thing’s for sure, this move is gonna be really controversial.  The truth is, I’m sure most Americans would be perfectly fine with allowing Trump’s face to be placed on, say - a three-dollar bill, or perhaps renaming San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge the “Trump Golden Shower Bridge,” or even having Trump’s name inscribed on every interstate highway’s rest stop restroom wall - but not airports.


Besides, and mark my words, if Republicans are successful in renaming this after their “Orange God,” expect him to demand royalties for use of his name.  And the first order of business?  Why, more direct flights to Moscow - of course.  Now, some may ask, why do this?  Well, I guess Republicans must figure you have to start out small by renaming an airport, before moving on to eventually renaming the entire country. Gee, “Trumpistan” does actually have a bit of a ring to it, doesn’t it?  


That said, I still can’t help but thinking, “Could this possibly be some sort of late April Fools prank?”  Then it occurs to me, wasn’t Dulles International one of the airports Trump once told a Fourth of July audience that was seized from the British by the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War?  I mean, talk about a unique perspective on our war for independence!  One thing’s for sure, you’re never gonna learn anything like that in the history books.  That is, unless Republicans grab control of our school boards.

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...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

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...
