Just like the click and clack tappet brothers used to say: booooogus. That is, the description of the critique of critical race theory.

Toyota Targets North American Market With New ‘Sedition 88’ Pickup Featuring Gallows As Standard

After responding to criticisms that it has funded law-makers who played down the significance of the Capitol Riot in January, the Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:TM) has doubled-down on its position with the release of a new pickup expressed designed for the insurrectionist consumer.

“We are pleased to introduce the heavy-duty Sedition 88.”

The automobile giant said there was a large void in the pickup/light truck market despite the number of choices available, since none of those were explicitly designed with the needs of right-wing gun-loving Trump supporters in mind. The 6.5-liter Sedition 88 makes no such mistake according to the manufacturer.

“Our exciting new Sedition 88 pickup features gallows as standard for when you need to string up that Democrat or RINO who objects to your violent unconstitutional power-grab after you lose at the ballot box.”

Customers may also choose from a number of heavy gun mounts, something Toyota has a great deal of expertise in due to its dominant market position in a number of unstable African nations.

“We are delighted to bring our experience equipping ragtag insurgencies seeking to overthrow legitimate governments to the United States now that it too is a basket-case.”

Customers will be able to choose from a wide variety of luxury trims, including details like seat-warmers and decorative chrome runes, though the Sedition 88 will only come in the color white.

“For obvious reasons.”

That's a near terminal case of RBF in that last panel.

The problems with Republican BF is that the majority of the country gets "BF'd", good and hard.

But aren't a lot of Republicans (but not nearly enough IMO) going to get this? Isn't it one of the punishments that constitute a jail sentence in the USA? One of you erudite guys can post me a link to the relevant clause of the Constitution, no?

An annotated version of a letter sent to the former president by a Wisconsin Republican who was one of those that announced there was no fraud.  

Former President Donald Trump recently accused three Wisconsin Republican leaders of “working hard to cover up election corruption” as he continued pushing lies about the November presidential vote. Mr. Trump delights in turning his fire on members of his party who he feels are being insufficiently servile. Many promptly prostrate themselves; a few shrug it off.

Then there is State Senate President Chris Kapenga of Wisconsin, one of the Republicans singled out by Mr. Trump. He responded to the former president with a letter that approaches North Korean-style levels of Dear Leader obsequiousness.

Here's a bit of the letter:

Let me first say that very few people have the honor of being named publicly by a United States president.

Now you’re back on track: Having raised your concern, it is best to immediately backpedal and layer on more flattery. Plowing ahead with the details of your complaint without proper fertilizing risks getting Mr. Trump’s dander up.


I never imagined mine would be mentioned, much less in this light, from a President that I have publicly supported, and still support.

The genius of this sentence is that it sounds as though you’re expressing gratitude, even as you are expressing dismay.


I feel I need to respond even though you will likely never hear of it, as the power of your pen to mine is like Thor’s hammer to a Bobby pin.

Bonus points for going with a deity from Norse mythology. Mr. Trump clearly has a soft spot for the region, to the point that he expressed a desire for more Norwegian immigrants and even eyed buying Greenland from Denmark.
