Is the Swamp Drained Yet? – Page 3 – A chronicle of Swamp Guy's second term of office

Let me see if I have this straight. We’re supposed to fear the Mexicans because drugs, but a major drug trafficker is now free because Swamp Guy promised the ~~Corporate Neo-Feudalist~~ Libertarian Party.

The fancy brands like Eggland’s Best and Nellie’s are simply not there.
Bare shelves where eggs other than store brand should be.

The swamp wasn’t drained before, either

I found istheswampdrainedyet.com up for grabs, but it seems someone had it briefly in 2017 as well. The Wayback Machine crawled my site today (and fail2ban blocked it; it is now exempted). I checked out what they had on this domain, and it seems that someone had it in 2017 as well.

That version bore a very simple page:

No!

The tax man stealeth

The Daily Beast reports that former Fascist Congresscritter Billy Long is Swamp Guy’s pick to run the IRS.

Long has no experience as a tax administrator. But he made big bucks advising people how to steal COVID-19 relief funds.

Swamp Guy shakes down Des Moines Register

Emboldened, perhaps, after ABC paid $15 million in ~~bribes~~ ~~Danegeld~~ damages for calling a rapist a rapist, Swamp Guy has sued the Des Moines Register over a poll that had Kamala Harris in the lead.

To have standing to sue, you have to suffer harm. Swamp Guy won in Iowa. Just what harm has he suffered?

Here’s hoping we don’t get a crooked judge like the Miami Fangirl, and that the judge enters summary judgment and awards lawyer’s fees, to be paid out of Swamp Guy’s hide and not the US Treasury.

Swamp Guy ❤ Project 2025

Swamp Guy then: “Project 2025? Who, me?”

So much for cheaper groceries

Swamp Guy ran on a promise of cheaper groceries. He lied. Surprise, surprise, surprise.

Make America sick again

So now we have:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., well-known antivaxxer and anti-fluoride activist, to run Health and Human Services
Mehmet Oz, TV doctor and touter of hydroxychloroquine and quack weight-loss products and some-time antivaxxer, to run the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services
And now Dave Weldon, forced birther and antivaxxer, to run the Centers for Disease Control.

Swamp Guy loved to claim credit for the COVID-19 vaccine. But I’m noticing a pattern here.
