So the joke for today, “What happens when a Jew and Evangelical walk into a Press Briefing Room, together…they lie!” This morning Pacific Standard time Secretary of State Mike (when is the Rapture arriving already) Pompeo, along with Secretary of the Treasury Steve, (but I am Jewish should I be worried if it comes too quickly, Nah, I have more taxpayer money to spend) Mnuchin, stood in front of the American people, fumbled over facts, fixated on fable and foible, and spoke without any truth reaching their tongues. The same story as to the question of imminent doom and destruction was volleyed around as might a bad mitten birdie, with a no answer as the answer, and all we hear was Trump IS the guy who has destroyed every single living Terrorist in the Twenty-First Century. Maybe one Embassy was at risk, maybe more. Maybe the Embassy located in Baghdad was next on the list to be raided, but then perhaps it never was.
Questions about sanctions tried to b heard, but Steve (with his magic black binder of economic blunders, assured the Press that, placing pressure on Iran was the key to success (something he may have learned at Trump U) and still working closely with nations who STILL do business with Iran, makes a good DEAL for the United States, and ignore anything that seems like hypocrisy!
When asked if the newly minted version of Trump’s plan to assassinate Qassem Soleimani, had been shared with the members of Congress, Mike ( I am your Lord and Master so don’t you dare question me) Pompeo, provided his “you are not the boss of me frown, and not looking anyone in the eye, puffed his lips into a fish face, and said, “of course!” But “of course,” the comments from the Congress, yesterday, who heard a different spiel, were nothing like Mikey’s version. What no one asked the Less than Dynamic duo, the two more like Dumb and Dumber (move over Junior and Erik), was “Did Trump even give a rats ass that to cover his own miserable ass, to deflect his Impeachment have anything to do with a precept to perhaps a Third World War!
