Karmageddon

By mike flugennockThursday - June 26th, 2025Categories: Middle East, Palestine, right wingnuts, Trumpism, war and peace

I’ll be absolutely 100% honest with y’all — I couldn’t pretend I didn’t enjoy this. At last, some more folks got up the cajones to put their foot down, rise up and hit the bully back. And after a year and a half of relentless US-backed oppression and genocide, Israel — like your standard-issue bully — instantly starts screaming victim and runs crying to the teacher.

I couldn’t pretend not to enjoy the footage of Israelis nervously lined up at airports, scrambling aboard buses and boats, running all over each other to get out of “their” country. What’sa matter, gang? That land was promised to you by god. What are you running for?

Trump’s remarks were real class, too — the more he bragged, the more you knew Israel was getting a first-class ass-paddling. So goddamn MUCH winning, there, Donster.

Hats off to Iran for having the strength and courage to teach Israel that actions have consequences.

Retro Kitsch

Many of my readers of a certain age may have had Dads or uncles who were enthusiasts of a certain style of rec room bar lighting. Here’s my backhanded tribute to classic Mid 20th American cheese.

Welcome…! (Instant Karma no.2)

I wish I’d screenshot or bookmarked the tweet I spotted on Facebook featuring a grinning Kay-Kay and Netanyahu shaking hands, with a headline announcing the latest amount of my tax money being shipped off to fund a genocide in Palestine. Not that it matters that much these days, as it’s always such an insanely stonking amount of cash that remembering the actual goddamn number doesn’t seem that important anymore.

Luckily, though, I did save this headline from the Washington Post a couple of days ago, about how the Small Business Administration’s disaster relief fund is already tapped out. Tough luck, MAGA Boy, the money to rebuild your surf shop just went to bomb a bunch of people living in tents.

What goes around, America…

Glazed And Frosted

Don’t you just love it when these bastards’n’bitches just come right out and show you who they really are — and gleefully, proudly, no matter how vile it actually is? Sure, it’s infuriating, horrifying and digusting, but at least you know the score right up front with these scum. You can’t say you didn’t know.

So, she’s speaking now, huh? Oh, f’crissake, man. I’d honestly rather have 4 more years of Trump than this goddamn insufferable-ass “girl boss” schtick. Granted, this wouldn’t go down well with most of your Liberals, who prefer their fascist rule to be not too outwardly fascist-y.

…and now, working on this piece has given me some ferocious munchies…
