When it hits the fan for a-holes

I look at this maga regime with its Constitution-scoffing crew constantly being publicly busted for war crimes, corruption, and abuse of power and wonder if this is just the way they like to live. Does Kristi Noem give a crap (in her panties) that her all-in trumpism as head of Homeland Security might actually be her undoing? Does Private Fragseth wake up in a clean bed after failing to sweep murder allegation under the rug? Is there any part of Kash Patel's makeup that makes him NOT want to make another humiliating appearance in front of a House committee?

I hope at the very least people like the above have painful ulcers from the eventual stress brought on by their vile behavior as we wait for any systemic justice. What I wonder is if they even realize what scumbags they are or if they just think they're victims of "witch hunts." Or if they 're just so evil they don't give a flying fuck about anything to the point where nothing really bothers them. If that's the case, it must be nice to not have a conscience like some kind of rat.

Noem looked terrible in front of the committee the other day. I honestly don’t know how they show their face after some of the stupid things they say. I would hide after saying just one of them. and I was thinking, sleeping with Cory Lewandowski EWWWW.

That should be the term for any regrettable hook-up e.g. "Don't tell anyone about my Lewandowski."

no self-respect, no spine. The embodiment of evil.

Case exhibits, for anyone who thinks evil as an entity, doesn't exist.

Nixon shaking Donvict’s hand will be classic symbolism in another year and a half unless he croaks earlier

Funny how some of us thought that would be as bad as it gets. Then John Dean wrote the book "Worse Than Watergate" about the W admin. Then the dark lard-ass said "hold my beer." Or in his case "hold my Big Mac."

is there even a word for government by a gang of sadistic high stakes gamblers who pay gangs of their subjects to hunt select minorities for sport. maybe a "ratpackocracy?"
