Bad Moon Rising. Very, Very Bad.

A freight train full of shlt is barreling down on us. Are we ready?

Less than two weeks into the post-election interregnum and we already know a lot about what lies ahead.

Trump rolled out his Cabinet picks with uncharacteristic speed­ — a bad sign that his team has a plan, ready to go — and it was a slate that shocked even inveterate Trump watchers accustomed to the absolute worst from this guy. Gabbard, Gaetz, and RFK Jr are in a dead heat for worst choice, with the others in a twelve-way tie for third. A Russian stooge (at best) to control US intelligence, a troll under criminal investigation for sex crimes by the department he’s been tapped to lead, and a cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs anti-vaxxer and conspiracy theorist with a worm in his brain and a penchant for decapitating whales and hoarding dead bearcubs in charge of public health. What could go wrong?

It’s a group so grotesque that it beggars parody; even Trump’s worst critics did not dare imagine picks this ass-wipingly bad. But this is what you asked for, folks. Did you really think the candidate who mimed a blowjob, portayed his Black female opponent as a low-IQ prostitute, and held a neo-Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden was gonna pick sober, qualified veteran public servants?
