6.3.24 Happy Pride Month!

It’s Monday. There are 155 days until the general election. Hunter Biden goes on trial, MAGA Mike Johnson makes clear SCOTUS is corrupt and Americans don’t want a felon president.

Be advised: This newsletter uses profanity. It’s how we tell people who don’t like Pride Month to eat shit.

Note: Sexy Patriots! You’re looking sexier and more patriotic than ever. Watching an ex-president piece of human garbage finally face some accountability really agrees with you. It does us too. Our skin looks amazing and we’re processing food better. We are of course going to talk more about the convicted felon who looks like a melon today but first, we need to celebrate something else wonderful…

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, EVERYONE!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!

This is one of our favorite months. Because we love Pride, we love our LGBTQ+ brothers and sisters, we love equality, we love to party and we really love all the colors. It’s so beautiful! We also love telling bigots to fuck off and rot so this month really has everything for us. But we’re also mindful that these last few years have seen some real setbacks for the community and we will spend part of this month on edge that some fucking scumbag will do something evil. So everyone please be careful while celebrating. Be vigilant while you’re being awesome and free and your true self. We love you very much, and we’re proud of you. Except the bigots. They can kiss our asses and fuck off. Y’all have a blessed day and a lovely Pride Month.

Rigged?

Jury selection is getting underway in Hunter Biden’s gun trial this morning. President Joe Biden put out a beautiful statement of support for his son that damn near had us crying in our coffee. What the president didn’t do is attack the judicial system and threaten witnesses and jury members. Even though Hunter is having to deal with Trump-appointed judges and we all know how corrupt those motherfuckers are. If Hunter is guilty, he should be held accountable. We just always want the man to be getting the help he needs after a lifetime of tragedy.

Yeah, that’s corrupt

MAGA Mike Johnson said last week that he knows some Supreme Court justices personally and he knows they’re concerned about the Trump guilty verdict and they should do something. And yeah that is super fucking corrupt and exactly what we thought about this court. And then Trump got in on the action, taking to Truth Social to ask his broken SCOTUS to save him from being sentenced. It’s a state conviction and SCOTUS has no business intervening, but we’ll see.

Not helpful

This weekend, we started seeing the first post-conviction polls and they are not good for Trump. It turns out that the only people who want a convicted felon for president are reporters and Republicans. According to ABC/Ipsos, half of Americans (49 percent) and more than half of Independents (52 percent) say Trump should end his campaign. Oh and that includes 16 percent of Republicans. And CBS found that 57 percent believe the jury reached the right conclusion, and 51 percent say Trump is now unfit to be president. Should those numbers be higher? Of course. But it’s a damn good start.

President Joe Biden is set to sign a long-anticipated executive order as soon as Tuesday that would allow him to “shut down” the southern border should crossings surge, according to four people familiar with the administration’s plans. While those people cautioned that plans are fluid, the expectation is that Biden will issue the order before heading to France in the middle of the week for a ceremony celebrating the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
