WE GOT YOUR SECRET DONORS RIGHT HERE MARCO
A group of folks who apparently like Florida Republican senator and presidential hopeful Marco Rubio have put together a $16 million fund to run advertising in support of Rubio. So who put in all this money that obviously is supposed to buy the donors super access to this senator and possibly future president, down the road? Can’t say for sure because all the donors are secret and that’s legal. Yep, this is one effed-up country these days.
As if you needed another reason not to trust Rubio, who has been selling his soul to party power-players for a shot at the White House since he was like 8-years-old or something like that.
Here is our theory: we think that the $16 million came from ISIS, Fidel Castro, Vladimir Putin and a guy named Buford Daryl Ray Bob who has a Confederate flag tattooed on his forehead.
Remember you heard it here first.
So unless Rubio offers proof that these guys weren’t the ones behind the money — proof as in the names of other people who provided the money — then America should just take our list as fact and stay as far away from this sellout of a politician as possible. Secret donors and democracy don’t mix, Marco, but why should we expect a man funding his advertising by way of communism, terrorism and racism to understand that? Secret donors and the election is still more than a year away. Can’t wait to see what anti-democracy BS comes our way next.
OUR HERO AWARD TO JUDGE ROBRENO
According to the New York Times, “Bill Cosby testified 10 years ago that he had obtained Quaaludes in the 1970s to give to young women with whom he wanted to have sex,” according to a court document unsealed on Monday.
It was an acknowledgment, the first to become public and in Mr. Cosby’s own words, that he viewed powerful, sedating drugs as a part of his sexual encounters with women. And Tuesday, many of the women who have accused Mr. Cosby of raping or groping them said they felt vindicated by Mr. Cosby’s admission.
In explaining his reasoning for unsealing the 10-year-old Cosby deposition, U.S. District Court Judge Eduardo Robreno stated in his opinion that Cosby, “has donned the mantle of public moralist and mounted the proverbial electronic or print soap box to volunteer his views on, among other things, childrearing, family life, education and crime. To the extent that the Defendant has freely entered the public square and ‘thrust himself into the vortex of these public issues,’ he has voluntarily narrowed the zone of privacy that he is entitled to claim.”
Good for Judge Robreno, but what about all the people (attorneys, previous judges, court reporters, transcribers, etc.) who have known what was in this deposition for more than a decade and who have sat silently by as Cosby publicly denied the claims of dozens of women who said he drugged and sexually abused them? No hero award for them.
