The past few weeks I’ve been taking a look at the way that people who spend their every waking moment frothing at the mouth with hatred for President Donald Trump are still as irrational, wrong and deceitful as they were during his first term. With 2017 and 2018 behind us, here’s 2019’s examples.
FLASHBACKS
JANUARY 29th, 2019 – JOURNALIST SHARYL ATTKISSON PRESENTS A LIST OF OVER ONE HUNDRED FAKE NEWS ITEMS ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP SINCE HIS 2017 INAUGURATION. And anti-Trump fascists fell for them every single time. And still do.
JANUARY 28th – DEMOCRATS STILL ORDERING AMERICANS OF COLOR NOT TO WEAR MAGA HATS. Democrats still can’t deal with the fact that they no longer own African-Americans.
JANUARY 8th – PRIVILEGED WHITE DEMOCRATS STILL PRETEND TO BE PART OF A “RESISTANCE” AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP. Thus insulting real resistance movements throughout history.
FEBRUARY 25th – PRIVILEGED ONE-PERCENTER “ACTORS” HYSTERICALLY OVERREACTING TO PRESIDENT TRUMP.
FEBRUARY 15th – TRUMP-HATERS PRETEND HIS DECLARATION OF AN EMERGENCY AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER MEANS WE’RE INCHES FROM A DICTATORSHIP EVEN THOUGH OBAMA DECLARED THIRTEEN EMERGENCIES HIMSELF. And the fact that nearly SIXTY “Presidential Emergency Declarations” had been made since 1976, proving that there is no danger of them leading to a dictatorship. Plus THIRTY-ONE previous Presidential declarations of emergencies were STILL in effect as of this 2019 date, proving how milk-water they are given that they had been forgotten about. Continue reading
### After the Argonauts had feasted, they proceeded to the Argo and tried pulling it to the sea for launching. It was snagged on dry seaweed and refused to go further, so the Argonauts began losing their resolve. Remember, this is an Orpheus-centric version of the Quest for the Golden Fleece, so this wimpy loss of resolve was just an excuse for another Orphic lesson. 
EERIE #62 (Jan 1975) 
DR. SAN GUINARY – From 1971 to 1981, director John F. Jones at KMTV in Omaha, Nebraska hosted the channel’s version of Creature Feature as mad scientist Dr. San Guinary. The program originally aired late Saturday nights after the 10:00pm local news, then was moved to Midnight when KMTV started airing SNL in 1975.
The doctor, whose voice always had a certain Wolfman Jack sound to it, also did comedy inserts and sketches, of course. The circulating DVDs of Horror Host footage from decades ago featured plenty of Dr. San Guinary’s comedy bits, including his Mystery Door segments (above right). 
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME – The last two teams standing in the NAIA were the FREED-HARDEMAN UNIVERSITY LIONS and the LANGSTON UNIVERSITY LIONS (should be Hugheses). By Halftime Freed-Hardeman University was on top 33-30, and after the break they squeezed out a tiny bit more separation from Langston U. FHU triumphed 76-71 led by 20 points from Orlando Thomas.
ELITE EIGHT: FIRST BERTH – The UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAROONS clashed with the GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS COLLEGE GUSTIES. Gustavus Adolphus had the Maroons a bit wary with their 40-39 edge at the Half. From there, the University of Chicago snuck by the Gusties for a 93-92 victory. Twenty-one points from Shane Regan led the Maroons.

A TOURIST IN HAVANA (1908) – A documentary short depicting the sights to be seen by tourists in 1908 Havana. The director was Enrique Diaz Quesada, who founded the first film studio in Cuba alongside his brother Juan. This short debuted on September 15th at Havana’s Payret Theater. 
INAUGURATION OF PRESIDENT GENERAL JOSE MIGUEL GOMEZ (1909) – Another newsreel, this one filming the inauguration of Magoon’s elected successor.
THE GREAT ELECTRIC DIAPHRAGM – This short story was written by neglected American science fiction pioneer Robert Duncan Milne. It was published in the May 24th, 1879 edition of The Argonaut in San Francisco. 
FINAL FOUR: FIRST BERTH – The FREED-HARDEMAN UNIVERSITY LIONS faced the ARIZONA CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY FIRESTORM. The teams went almost basket for basket in the opening Half, with the Firestorm on top 36-34 going into the locker room. From there the play was just as tight, but the Lions eked out a 79-78 victory. Rico Sain put up 21 points to lead Freed-Hardeman.
