The week in politics began with the Iowa primaries. Ron DeSantis, who threw tens of millions of dollars at the state and criss-crossed it multiple times, still looked like he might not even come in a strong second. This was one of my favorite moments at the end of the campaign,
The participation trophy for DeSantis was truly inspired. It was the best laugh of all and right at the top, too! I'll be laughing at that one all day. And having seen a few true crime stories on TV, the last post was also hilarious. 'I'm glad my husband is missing.' She must have spent hours if not days in the interrogation room. I don't even have to wonder where she is now. So funny.
I have to say, Jay, I do look forward to getting Xeets and Giggles on Saturdays but getting them on Sunday reminds me of the days when I looked forward to the Sunday newspaper because the comics were the best. And in color, too!
The elephant 🥰 and the spinning dogs 😄 are my favorites this week.
I'm not sad to see Vivek gone, he's horrible, but it is hilarious that Iowans voted against him for the wrong reason and his words and ideas such as they were had nothing to do with it at all.
It definitely said more about the voters than about the candidate. For GOP voters, skin color is everything. I think it's interesting that as racist as Trump is, he sure works hard at darkening his own skin. It seems to be darker every time I see a new picture of him. So weird.
That reminds me of Obama’s White House Correspondents Dinner joke about John Boehner (then Speaker of the House, known for his remarkable “tan”)--“I just found out our Speaker is a person of color--it just happens to be a color not found in nature”
Which reminds me: check out the color of the spotted hand held up against his face! Such a giveaway that he is heavily (much too heavily) made up. What a pathetic specimen!
Very true. I wonder if his eyesight is going and he doesn't realize how dark it looks to others? The same way that when someone starts to lose their hearing they start talking louder and turn up radio and TV volume knows because it sounds softer to them.
I said this from the beginning when SOME were talking up Vivek R's chances .... The MAGAts have so much racism as a basis for many of their preferences, they were NEVER going to elect him for President. I had a sudden thought last night about Niki Haley, who has the added drawback of being a woman ... WHAT IF Drumpf doesn't end up as the nominee (health I would suggest as an excuse ...) & Niki does? I suspect Pres Biden will decide NOT to run (health I would suggest as an excuse, but really because the orange fascist is gone) & Kamala will step up with a male VP ... Then you will have 2 female mixed race contenders!!! Fun gaming THAT one out ...
It's interesting that 45 felt the need to dump on Vivek at the end there - was he feeling the pressure, it is it just his usual vindictive self? The fact that Vivek still endorsed him just shows how pathetic they all are.
Awesome ! The Andy Reid and Dallas Cowboys were both great! 😂 what a collection of funny stuff-I woke up sick so I’ll be looking forward to everyone’s thoughts-in between naps. Ugh. 🥴
Quite possible, but it’s way too slow of disease progression. I don’t think tRump would do well with armadillos, erupting in fits of jealous rage when discovering that among mammals, armadillos have one of the largest penises relative to body size. According to one afternoon fling Stormy, tRump is endowed with a small mushroom at best.
Amazing election security. Write a name on a piece of paper and drop it in a paper grocery sack. Come back a second time through, just to make sure. I’ve seen this method of voting before - elementary school student president.
We MUST get out and vote BLUE in Nov. But suppose in 2024, Americans elect so narrow a majority of Democrats in the House that control is held by the Radical Far Left group The Squad. Imagine that. Gov't shutdowns will be threatened if funding isn't provided for Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, and tuition-free college. It will be anarchy.
??? Are you serious? They had a pretty slim majority in 2020 (not as thin as Republicans now, but not a lot). Not a big fan of “the squad,” but shutdowns are not their thing.
I mostly love the Squad, but I would never want them to block government funding to achieve progressive goals I favor, nor do I believe that they ever would. If progressives want to see stuff enacted, they need to grow their numbers in the House the old fashioned way (which they are starting to do).
The progressive block in the House has been really big on compromising. They know what they want but they also know what they can achieve and have been really smart about not holding government hostage. They have compromised much more than the so called moderate Democrats.
I have high hopes for the defamation lawsuit - considering the judge and the jury, I would love to see a TRULY astronomical compensation number. P. S. The cat-shaped cat entrance is beyond adorable.
Just a thought, if you have to begin any statement with, I’m not being prejudiced but.....maybe just stfu! You have nothing to say that intelligent, caring people want to hear because you are, in fact, being prejudice! Just STFU!
The Good Liars aren’t simply good, they’re great; the toucan was sweet, the elephant, heart-warming; the colored balls, hypnotic; but the lady caught on a hot mic wins the competition for best and worst performance simultaneously
The elephant. 💓💓 The cat. The toucan. Such nice palate cleansers this week Jay! Eh at least DeSantis and Ramasmarmy are drinking at the Bar of Regret for a minute and Habba is picking up the check. 🥂 Til next week!

Congrats on your new doggie. So adorable!
She is the best! I’m so loving this bonding time.
The last item was by a comedian I do believe
Really? Makes sense, but dang!

Maybe, but I think it's more likely he's lost his marbles.
Bold assumption for you to make that he ever had them. Haha.
LOL
Yes, see my comment below about hand vs face!
My inlaws had dogs that did that at feeding time. It was funny.

‘Kick ‘em when they’re down’ mentality.
The Spin Dogters having a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
Trump’s such a fan of Sharpies, maybe he was making notes for his lawyer with a red one🤣
That’s my theory.
That was my first thought...
Awesome ! The Andy Reid and Dallas Cowboys were both great! 😂 what a collection of funny stuff-I woke up sick so I’ll be looking forward to everyone’s thoughts-in between naps. Ugh. 🥴
Hope you feel better quickly! Also, I hope it’s nothing serious. 🥰
It hit me outta the blue! Sleep sleep and more sleep! 👍🏻😷
Rest is healing, sleep away.
@SusanNiemann Feel better quick!
Thanks Sharon ! 😷

I think it's leprosy, not syphilis. He's been playing with armadillos because Melania won't come near him.

So THAT'S how the armadillo ended up smeared with ketchup and smashed up against the wall...

At least it’s not a single use plastic bag.
And speaking of security - the comedian just walking up to DeathSentence - and how long it took for someone to escort him away?

Bologna.
All excellent animal videos, but the elephant thanking the shovel truck for the win.
He recognized the bucket as a trunk!
And showed his gratitude for the help. How lovely.
It was so cute. The way he gave the machine trunk a head bump.
I was watching that video worried if the bucket would hurt him.
Good one, Jay! I enjoyed all the syphilis tweets. But the woman not knowing she was on live tv was priceless! 🤣🤣🤣

The final crow joke just killed it 😈

I’m on her side. Don’t ever find that creep!
It was hard not to be on her side. We've all had times when we just want somebody to go away but aren't involved in them going away. 😄
