Catching up on Absolute Batman and got to this panel which I read to my wife who said “that’s certainly no Clooney”
A panel from absolute Batman number 10. Text reads “Sedated male presented at 6 foot 9 inches, 421 pounds. Six staff were required to carry him in — one back injury incurred. Removal of his “costume” triggered a series of homemade booby traps, numerous injuries incurred.

Soccer (in the US) and football (everywhere else) is one of the greatest sports because it is accessible to anyone who can find a ball. No expensive equipment or special locations - a field, a street, you name it, you can play. Apparently, you need to be wealthy af to watch. And Trump might show.
A screenshot of the official FIFA World Cup site where one can choose to buy tickets. Single matches start at $1350 USD per person. Watching every match at your venue starts at $8275 USD per person. Following a team around USA, Canada and Mexico would start at $6750 per person.

There's a tweet for everything! Get this idiot out of the white house.
A tweet from Donald Trump dated October 9, 2012 "Now that Obama's poll numbers are in a tailspin - watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Ian. He is desperate.

#TrumpFail
A comic from Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling entitled Donald and John. Subtitle "a boy and his imaginary publicist". In the style of Calvin and Hobbs, young Trump (Calvin) is playing with army toys while his father (who looks like Trump) looks over his shoulder. Calvin "I'm making a massive parade to celebrate the army and its service to our nation!" Dad "It's for the army and our nation?" Calvin "Yes" Dad "Then why are they performing for YOU?" Calvin "Because they're MY Toys!!" Next strip Calvin, dressed like a military commander with an obnoxious amount of military flair on his jacket "The great military leader surveys his powerful army as it parades past him! He recalls his own youth when service called... and he bravely and selflessly fought that evil foe..." Dad "... Bone Spurs!" Calvin "AND that greedy doctor who wanted $3000 for the diagnosis!" Next strip. Dad "Six million Americans are in peaceful protest against you!" Calvin" But it's NOT a peaceful protest" Dad "All reports say it is ..." Calvin "Just wait." Dad "Oh! A nut drove an SUV into a Virginia crowd ... and the LAPD is gassing and shooting at protestors!" Calvin "See? My people always come through" Last strip: Calvin is in a treehouse wearing a paper captain's hat and a sword. "Followers, There's been a terrible murder of a democratic legislator! We've been treated badly and unfairly, but that's NOT the way to respond! Just know what you'll get if you commit violence in my name!!" Crowd "A PARDON!" Calvin "Busted"

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn't buy the paper. ONe day the vendor asks what he's up to. Guy says "looking for an obituary" Vendor says "those are towards the back of the paper, comrade" Guy says "not the one I'm looking for"

This isn’t real, right? No one on earth would write this as POTUS.
A tweet from DJT Happy Mother's Day to all, including Racist, Vicious, Highly Partisan, Politically Motivated, and Very Unfair Radical Left Democrat Judges, Prosecutors, District Attorneys, and Attorney Generals, who campaign unrelentingly against you without knowing a thing, and endlessly promise to take you down. After years of persecution, even the Fake News says there is no case or, at best, it would be very hard to bring. Someday soon they will start fighting RECORD SETTING Violent Crime. I love you all!
