Today's Tiedrich rant: states of emergency and other dipshit wingnut reactions to today's eclipse

Link: https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/states-of-emergency-and-other-dipshit

every now and then Sarah Huckabee Sanders does something idiotic enough to make the news — and all of a sudden you’re reminded that holy shit, this low-wattage underachiever who spent three years lying for a fascist sack of shit is actually the Governor of Arkansas. what the fuck, voters? how on God’s green earth could you have allowed this to happen? were you drunk last election day?

check out this tasty slice of prime fucknuttery:

Gov. Sanders declares state of emergency ahead of eclipse
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KNWA/KFTA) — Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders declared a state of emergency on Friday ahead of the solar eclipse, according to a news release. Sanders said in the release that she released funds from the Response and Recovery Fund to help commercial carriers transport essentials to customers in the state during the eclipse. The essential items listed in the order include groceries, pharmacy items, medical equipment, goods, commodities, fuel, poultry, livestock and feed.

why, Sarah? the totality of the eclipse will be about 4 minutes. what do you expect is going to happen? what “essentials” will need to be transported during 240 seconds of darkness?

quick! we have a poultry emergency in Little Rock! the chickens think it’s night and fell asleep! send out the commercial carriers! alert the — oh wait, the sun’s already coming back out.

Jeff is still the same ol' master of sarcasm. He layers it on for Sarah Sanders and then he moves on over to Marjory Taylor Greene. Please click on the link to read the rest on Tiedrich's blog....

I won't be seeing any eclipse today because we have 100% cloud cover in Pittsburgh, just like most days. Oh well there's probably a LIVE INTERNET broadcast of it on DU anyway.

Eclipses and earthquakes as God's curse are standard, but my favorite is when they accuse progressives of 'drinking baby's blood to stay young'. The proof is supposedly that the progressives in question do, indeed, look fairly young and healthy. On the one hand, it's just accusing their enemies of atrocities. But on another level, they do believe that this would work.

And then there's the one where they plan to sacrifice a lot of red heifers for...some reason. I'm afraid when that doesn't work, they'll decide to escalate to virgins. It's not a huge step, once you've decided that sacrifice is actually effective. When do we switch to reading entrails? Dunking witches?

Science, on the other hand? Well, that's just silly.
