Aussie Spy Chief Punches Himself in the Nuts

What a dumbshit.

Anyone paying even scant attention knows the annoying but ubiquitous “fist pump” gesture is the quasi-fascist salute of this criminal regime of bloodthirsty twits.

You’d really expect the leader of Australia’s international spy agency to be aware of it and how utterly appropriate it would be for a representative of Australia’s government to cluelessly join The Thug for a fist-clenched photo-op.

Predictably, and justifiably, Australian Secret Intelligence Service Director General Nick Warner is now catching an international ration of shit for his clumsy gaffe.

Let’s just hope that some good comes out of this:  That people fully recognize that the clenched fist salute is meant to be a threatening propaganda vehicle of incitement to violence and non-questioning group-think support for an aspiring fascist who’s directly responsible for an epic national tragedy.

 

We’ve always thought The Thug and his minions look like fucking idiots making that gesture, and that many of them are simply acting out their warped fantasies and signalling their yearning to be sexually dominated via fisting.

And in other news, The Thug made a brief propaganda pit-stop in Marawi to divert attention from the Senate hearing on his fake “drug war” and its assassinations of Filipino children.  And the siege drags on.

Meanwhile, The Thug’s tone-deaf rump-sucking “Justice” Secretary is acting so callous about the whole thing that even the stooges at the Palace are distancing themselves from his egregiously insensitive stupidity.

 

 

Leave it to Erap for epic dumbfuckery with basura boat stunt

You just can’t make this stupid shit up.

Looking like a doddering old drunk who hasn’t updated his wardrobe since high school, habitual out-of-date Tondo Boy poseur, disgraced former president, and current Manila Mayor (go figure) Joseph Estrada put on his vintage black hightop basketball shoes and crusty old jeans to stumble aboard a banca the other day with some minions to participate in a Manila Bay “cleanup” campaign.

Outfitted with cheap butterfly nets, “Erap” and his entourage braved the foul and fetid waters to bob around and collect a few pieces of trash for a couple minutes while cameras whirred.

The problem, of course, was that Estrada’s ridiculous toadies weren’t content to have him scoop up the existing trash, of which there is obviously no shortage.

No, the sip-sip brigade actually dumped trash into the bay beside the banca so that Erap and his posse would have an easier time scooping their silly little nets for this ridiculous exercise in political theatrics.

No, you just can’t make this shit up.

A horrified TV reporter remarked, quite sensibly, “My god, is this a joke?”

Erap was unperturbed as usual.  It’s just a publicity stunt anyway, he later shrugged.

And that says oh so much.

So much of Philippine leadership, politics, activism, and public debate is just shallow palabas, totally insincere, and everyone pretty much knows it.

So why does it continue?  Why do so many people go along with these stupid charades?

The only real surprising thing here is that TV Patrol didn’t just go along with the ridiculous bullshit this time, but actually did a very sensible story calling out the epic nonsense for what is was.

We need more of that honest approach.  A lot more.

Meanwhile, the ambitious (some would say “wacky”) plan to dump many tons of dirt and debris into the bay to construct an artificial island for the wealthy near the Baseco squatter area is apparently plowing full steam ahead, with virtually no credible scrutiny from media or the public.

 

Petty tyrant acts like lousy cartoon clown

He never misses an opportunity to embarrass the entire nation and demonstrate that he is not a dependable ally or even a mature adult.

In response to an American congressman’s vow to protest any visit by The Thug to the White House at President Trump’s ill-advised invitation, The Thug vowed to never step foot in America and called that country “lousy.”

It was a typical and predictably childish reaction by a tin-pot would-be dictator who’s struggling with an ongoing terrorist siege in Marawi, for which the Americans have provided much-needed military assistance to the troops on the ground.

And it came in response to American criticism of The Thug’s instigation and cheerleading of rampant illegal executions in the Philippines, mostly of dirt-poor suspected drug users and petty criminals.

But rather than address very reasonable and well-articulated concerns by Americans who are horrified by the ongoing slaughter of his countrymen by his own security forces and their minions, The Thug took it personal and lashed out at the nation’s oldest ally with a petty insult and vowed to never visit “lousy” America.

This, folks, it the petulant twit who “leads” the nation.

An actual leader, or any reasonable and mature adult, might have simply stated that he shares the American congressman’s concerns about the illegal killings of thousands of Filipinos and does not under any circumstances condone those killings.

BECAUSE THE ILLEGAL KILLINGS OF THOUSANDS OF FILIPINOS IS THE ISSUE HERE. 

THE ISSUE IS NOT THE FRAGILE EGO OF A BALAT-SIBUYAS SPOILED BRAT AND PROVINCIAL ELITE BUMPKIN WARLORD.

The fact that The Thug just doesn’t get that pretty much says it all.

Keep your eyes on the China sellout

Some people are just made to bow down to others.

Slippery sipsip Alan Peter Cayetano is obviously in way over his head as Foreign Affairs Secretary, but then again saying “Yes, Boss” to The Thug and bending over for China doesn’t really take much skill.

The recent news that he’s headed to Panda Land again comes as no surprise, unlike his secret previous trip as advance stooge of the Thug Regime.

But it will be interesting to see what transpires this time around.

The concern among regional allies is that the Philippines is quickly becoming another Cambodia in terms of carrying China’s water and undermining the collective interests of the ASEAN nations, which stand a much better chance of dealing effectively with China if they work together as a group rather than allow themselves to be cornered or sweet talked individually, bought off, and manipulated.

 

So who’s really in charge of this mess?

It was pretty astounding when The Thug went butt-snuggling in China and comically announced that the Philippines was dumping the yanquis and eagerly bending over for a parade of randy pandas.

But it was even more astounding that after the shit hit the fan on Mindanao, the U.S. military was eventually called in to assist with aerial surveillance — without The Thug even knowing about it.

As the deadly fiasco enters its fifth week,  with no end in sight, he’s begrudgingly “accepted the situation at this stage.”

That’s good, because it really doesn’t seem like he has a choice, or that he’s even really in charge of anything besides making dubious staged apologies for the conflagration while simultaneously making blustery threats about carpet-bombing Marawi City.

This whole mess seems to have spiraled out of control without any real leadership or control of President I-don’t-give-a-fuck.

So who, exactly, initiated this whole debacle, which began with a botched attempt to capture a terrorist bandit with a price on his head?  Did The Thug even know of the operation that set it all off?

And who, exactly, called in the Americans to help clean up the resulting mess?  And what is the protocol for something like that?  Does military assistance from a foreign ally normally require presidential initiation or approval?

Or is there a tacit military understanding that The Thug doesn’t know what the fuck he’s doing anyway, so military leaders will do whatever they deem necessary?

If The Thug had not “accepted the situation,” what would really happen next?

And now that he’s been bitch-slapped by China a few times, is he still in a big hurry to join Cambodia as a prostituted vassal state bent on undermining the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to expedite Chinese regional hegemony?

Has he even thought any of this through?

Is he really even in charge?
