The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for August 10, 2024
Transcript:
TV: Today the house of representatives, with a nearly unanimous vote, passed the $2 trillion "anti-evil" bill. That bill allows the president to do whatever he wants, wherever he wants, to whomever he wants, and however long he wants, in the name of eradicating "evil" from the globe. The lone dissenter to the bill, congresswoman Barbara Lee, told the house that she firmly opposes evil at home and abroad, but "you people are all acting intensely stupid right now. Please stop." Huey: You tell 'em Barbara!!

Sadly, Barbara Lee’s peak would come a short year or so later and she’s been a solid Establishment Democrat ever since.

Sadly, as we’re all keenly aware of now, the GOP’s insanity only got worse. I have to admit, I did not see that coming.

Thank you Barbara Lee. You are a prophet and you foresaw the quagmire of the Middle East in which we are stuck to this very day.
For those who don’t know history: Lee was elected to the House of Representatives in 1998. … She chaired the Congressional Progressive Caucus from 2005 to 2009 and the Congressional Black Caucus from 2009 to 2011…. She has played a major role in the antiwar movement, notably in her vocal criticism of the Iraq War and for being the only member of Congress to vote against the authorization of use of force following the September 11, 2001 attacks.

They should make a movie, possibly a video game, about an unhinged senile corrupt Republican POTUS given the absolute power to do anything within his power without legal consequence, backed by a mindless obedient cult. We’ll call it “(P)Resident Evil”
