Well, well, well.

What a difference the political party letter after your name makes.

Who knew such a thing, which was an outrage and treasonous not too long ago, could magically morph into perfectly acceptable, always been done, and "Whaddaya mean, 'illegal'?" just by switching an (R) to a (D)? 

It's really potent to do juju during a campaign in front of God, and everybody cloaked in the mantle of official business. 

Where once upon a time, a mere innocent phone call was fodder for the ardent patriots of the Bunsen Honeydew set, listening attentively in their Shelob's lair for any hint of malfeasance that would help the resistance to strike the BAD ORANGE MAN DOWN.

🔥WOW....Lt Col #Vindman said that he wasn’t afraid to stand up to @POTUS, despite his father’s fears for his life because, "This is America. Here, right matters.”

The onlookers in the committee room gave him an ovation.🇺🇸💙💖

Basking in the "good dog, Bunsen" glory of being Stunning! Brave! When, in fact, existing as a skullduggerous rat disgracing his uniform for purely personal and political purposes.

I wouldn't touch anything LtCol Bunsen Honeydew promotes with a TWENTY-FOOT POLE and Hazmat suit.

And the explosive aftermath and turmoil because of that "perfect" call.

Gracious. Started what seemed to be the "Impeachment Series - a never-ending parade of characters on the attack, undermining both presidential prerogatives and confidentiality of discussions between leaders or between leaders and their advisors. Every word is now known to be subject to the interpretation of some half-witted, ambitious, bespectacled malevolent Muppet with scores to settle and questionable loyalties.

Haven't seen anything like that since POTATUS was elected. In fact, once the (D) for dementia ascended the now imperial throne, there've been no leaks, no clandestine warfare against the executive branch at all.

The former subversives have turned their attention to the American people and imposing the progressive agenda on the citizenry at large through means, fair or foul - they're not picky.

And no one interferes. (D), you know.

Take the Ukrainian sweater boy. He travels the world begging for money - always in his guerilla outfit of tight green t-shirt, wooly pulley, cargo pants, three-day scrabble on his face, hound-dog eyes looking straight into your soul like an ASPCA commercial at Christmas with freezing puppies, and Sarah McLoughlin moaning in the background.

Who can resist him?

The American news media can't, as I duly noted in February.

..."Burnett was luminous, Volodymyr smoldered like a freshly tamped blueberry Swisher Sweet..."

The stars of this production probably deserve a short introduction as at least one of them may be unrecognizable. 

The lead actress is supposed to be a journalist for CNN. Her name is Erin Burnett, and she's normally a bit on the cranky side - all scrunched-faced, scowling, and "tool of Putin!" 

Democrats are crazy for him and so are quite a few Republicans in Congress.

You know who's not?

Donald Trump. J.D. Vance.

You know who wants to keep the butter thick on his bread - and those sports cars in Kyiv - really, really badly?

The Ukrainian hunk. So he's pretty much willing to say anything that might sway American voters to not pick the Orange Man. 

He's not shy about it at all, as David pointed out this morning.

...On the other hand, I have some advice for my not-so-good friend Zelensky: STFU, dude. Trump could be the next President of the United States, J.D. Vance the Vice President, and pissing them off and all Trump's supporters is pretty darn stupid. We are already skeptical that indefinitely supporting a war with no end in sight is in the United States' interest, and Zelenksy mucking about in our elections reinforces that skepticism. 

In his harshest criticism yet of the Republican presidential nominee, the Ukrainian president also described Trump’s running mate JD Vance as “dangerous” and “too radical”.

“His message seems to be that Ukraine must make a sacrifice,” Mr Zelensky said of Mr Vance in an interview with the New Yorker magazine before he flew to the US to present his “Victory Plan” to the White House this week. “But I believe that we have shielded America from total war.”

Well, he's here. Going to tour some bomb factories in Pennsylvania, bitch about Trump, beg for more money, bitch about Trump, etc.

My problem is with how he got here and how he's getting around.

SURE PAYS TO HAVE THAT (D)

Did the Biden-HARRIS administration fly Sweater Boy here from Amsterdam (where he'd arrived courtesy of the taxpayers of the Netherlands) on a United States Air Force C-17...or just pay his freight?

Have you missed him?
Zelensky arrived in New York aboard a US Air Force C-17A Globemaster III military transport aircraft to present his plan peremogi ( victory) to Joe Biden( I don’t know why lol) , Kamala Harris and Donald Trump , and beg for more money and NATO membership pic.twitter.com/nnGaunbnmf

That I'm not sure of, but I do know for a fact Biden-HARRIS flew the Ukrainian president to a battleground state - while he badmouths their political opponent - on United States military transport at taxpayer expense.

Worth noting that Zelenskyy was flown to Pennsylvania on an U.S. Air Force C-17.

The Biden-Harris admin is using military assets to fly a foreign leader into a battleground state in order to undermine their political opponents. https://t.co/OSebVUuBEg pic.twitter.com/biMGTfAc1J

Surely this beats Vindman's hysterical eavesdropping on a perfectly legit phonecall.

I am old enough to remember when using taxpayer resources to obtain purely partisan domestic political benefits from Zelenskyy was considered an impeachable offense. https://t.co/MD2aaTQCnk

Surely?

Damn near...what's that term...oh, yeah - unAmerican.

— tree hugging s*ster 🎃 (@WelbornBeege) September 23, 2024

What am I missing here?

I don't know but sending a foreign entity billions of taxpayer funds and then having their leader come to the states to campaign for you sounds impeachable.

— LincolnHillsFrau (@bayareahausfrau) September 23, 2024

It has absolutely got to be more of the joyful magic that's been shielding Biden-HARRIS since the frauds were elected. He was a dementia-ridden sack of carbon but got elected, she's never accomplished a single thing in three and a half years and now was never vice-president. 

And now flying a foreign leader in and chauffering him about the country on American military assets to trash your political opponent (R) - who, besides being impeached for a Ukrainian phone call, just had a near assassination miss from a Ukrainian supporter, no less - is just another day at the office.

HO HUM (D)

If it was anyone else, I'll bet you I might know how Trump would feel right now about his perfect phone call.

Patton: [ruefully] Ah, George... I wish I'd *kissed* the son-of-a bitch.

But it's Trump.

I know he's mad as hell and ready to rumble.

Man, he needs to be.
