  • “I know nothing about Trump’s Project 2025,” claims honest man

    “I know nothing about Trump’s Project 2025,” claims honest man

    The reliable truth-teller disputes claims of his Christian Nationalism fascist plan.

    Disgraced felon/sexual assailant twice-impeached ex-President Donald J. Trump denies knowing anything about the 887-page blueprint for his second term, even though his Super PAC is running ads calling it “Trump’s Project 2025.”

    “I don’t know anything about it,” Trump tells The Lint Screen. “Never heard of Trump’s Project 2025, but if people say they don’t like it, then I think it’s not a very good thing, and when I get back in office, I’ll do something about it. Whatever the hell it is.”

    Trump’s Project 2025 is from those wonderful folks at The Heritage Foundation, who brought you the six extreme right-wing cuckoo Supreme Court Justices who are shredding the Constitution and recently gave the president immunity from committing crimes in office “if it’s in the line of duty.”

    “It was a perfect ruling,” Trump says. “I’ll jail the Biden family and all my enemies. So many enemies. My list is long, but they must go if I’m going to make America great again.”

    His Project 2025 details plans to disassemble the government by replacing 50,000 civil servants with loyal Trump stooges and jock sniffers. 81% of the authors of the Christian Nationalism fascist plan worked in the first Trump administration.

    Some of the Plan’s highlights include giving tax breaks to the wealthy, guns in classrooms, gutting abortion access and LGBTQ+ rights, tracking abortion seekers, ending environmental programs designed to combat climate change, eliminating the Dept. of Education, putting the Department of Justice and the FBI under the president’s command, eliminating the government agency responsible for weather reports, ending overtime pay protection and healthcare protections for those with pre-existing conditions, undoing Biden’s $35 insulin, and banning pornography, to name a just few.

    “I’ve never seen pornography,” Trump says. “Have no idea what pornography is. And I never slept with a porn star. I swear on my recently published excellent Bible that I will make every citizen buy. Listen, if you can’t trust me, who can you trust?”

    The honest man smiles, shrugs, and gives two thumbs up.

  • “Supreme Six” to enjoy an all-expenses-paid vacation from mega-donors

    “Supreme Six” to enjoy an all-expenses-paid vacation from mega-donors

    The six conservative Supreme Court Judges have done the job they were paid to do.

    The Roberts Court has finished its business of dismantling democracy and enabling corporations to do as they like. Chief Justice Roberts has given all his robed pals the summer off. And conservative Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett, and Kavanaugh will join Roberts on an all-expenses-paid trip worldwide.

    “I can’t wait,” said Justice Brett Kavanaugh. “I want to do a keg stand in every country the private jet touches down! I also want to get handsy with the local talent.”

    The itinerary for the six conservative judges includes visits to 18 countries on a private jet, staying in ultra-luxury accommodations, enjoying gourmet food and expensive drinks, and a per diem of $10,000 per Justice.

    “It’s going to be a blast,” predicts Justice Amy Cohen Barrett. “I knew the law paid well, but good golly, I had no idea the perks were this fantastic.

    “We had a very productive session,” Roberts tells The Lint Screen. “We ran roughshod over democracy and set the stage for even more dark money in politics, instituted regulations over personal freedoms we don’t like, restricted voting, put the pieces in place for the integration of a white Christian national government, and set the stage for Trump to do whatever he wants in the Oval Office. I’d call that a resounding success!”

    “We came to do what we were paid to do,” said Justice Clarence Thomas. “And I’m proud to say, Harlan Crow, Misters Mellon, Uihlein, Koch, Griffin, and other mega-donors got their money’s worth. We delivered for them. Now, I can enjoy the summer with my wife, Ginni, who tells me some substantial deposits have been made into our investment accounts. Yee-ha!”

    “I am a little upset at our performance,” said Justice Samuel Alito. “I would have liked to ban contraception and get even more control over women’s bodies, make devout Catholic worship mandatory, and ban any votes that do not support conservative causes. But I guess it takes time to dismantle democracy. In the meantime, Martha-Ann will fly the flags of just causes.”

    “All good things take time, buddy,” Justice Neil Gorsuch said, patting Alito on his back. “Democracy’s had a couple hundred years running start. We can’t get our fascist state overnight.”

    “No. But we’re working on it!” Roberts says as the six Justices laugh.

  • “Trump’s a chicken, coward, and fatty feast,” says shark

    “Trump’s a chicken, coward, and fatty feast,” says shark

    “Big Chopper” is sick of Trump’s shark bashing.

    Sharks loom large in the mind of convicted felon disgraced ex-President Donald J. Trump.

    The GOP criminal running for re-election is terrified of sharks. He reportedly treats Shark Week as a 7-day horror show and recently mentioned sharks in a campaign speech.

    The looney tongue-ramblin’ man recalled a conversation with a boater in which he posed this dilemma: if the boat is sinking, and you’re on an electric battery, and you see a shark ten feet away in the water, would you stay on the battery and get electrocuted, or dive in the water and take your chances with the shark.

    Trump said he would get electrocuted every time in that situation. This deeply offended the shark community.

    “What’d we ever do to him?” says Bobby “Big Chopper” The Great White Shark. “Trump probably can’t even swim. I’ll bet he needs those inflatable arm things to float––and those give me terrible heartburn.”

    Sharks say they are tired of being trashed by a man they find crude, ignorant, and distasteful.

    “Trump’s a chicken, coward, and fatty feast,” Bobby says. “That is if he ever gets in the ocean. Sure, we’d eat him, but I’ll bet he’d give us awful heartburn. He’d probably also give us angina. Frankly, we’re glad that blubber is a landlubber. There’s not enough Andes Mints in the world to counteract him.”

    When Trump heard the statement, he called the shark “a loser” and said, “I’d kill him with my bare hands. I’m very brave and tough as nails.”

    Yeah, right.

  • “I’m too damn sexy to go to prison,” brags Bannon

    “I’m too damn sexy to go to prison,” brags Bannon

    MAGA master hunk Steve Bannon is looking at a stint in the pokey.

    Steve Bannon, the kooky mayor of MAGA-Madness Town, is scheduled to serve a four-month prison term on July 1 for contempt of Congress.

    “It’ll never happen,” Bannon confidently tells The Lint Screen. “They can’t send a guy as good-looking as me to jail. That’d be criminal. I’ve got a male model body with Hollywood leading man looks. I’m too damn sexy for prison. But if I did go, I’d sing bass for the J6 choir. Those guys rock!”

    Bannon is one of the biggest cheerleaders and ass-kissers of disgraced ex-President and convicted felon Donald Trump.

    “They want to put me away because Democrats don’t want to admit they stole the election,” Bannon says. “Because I’m a voice of justice, a man who knows Trump is Jesus Christ come again to save us, they want to silence me. But since this administration is illegitimate, Trump can pardon me.”

    Bannon, who once said Trump reminded him of Hitler as a compliment, feels he will get off scot-free with the con man’s help.

    “Steve, who?” Trump asked when he was told about Bannon’s plan to be pardoned. “Oh, yeah, Steve Bannon. Right, that guy. How much does he have for a pardon? They don’t come cheap.”

    Bannon tears a blank check from his checkbook and hands it to this reporter.

    “You tell the big guy he can write his own ticket with this,” Bannon says, smiling. “I’m good for it. I’ll just shake down some MAGA rubes. That bank never taps out.”

    It appears the future convict believes the convicted felon has magic powers.

  • “The kid must be executed,” says convicted felon Trump

    “The kid must be executed,” says convicted felon Trump

    Goofball son makes a mockery of Trump’s totally unjust trial.

    Tennessee Rep. John Rose made the obligatory MAGA lemming speech of faux outrage over the prosecution of the convicted felon, twice impeached ex-President Donald J. Trump, as his 6-year-old son Guy made faces behind him. Trump was not amused.

    “This kid needs more than a spanking,” the orange-faced leader of the MAGA cult said. “What the punk did was treason, and the penalty for that is execution. When I take back the Oval Office, the little boy is toast. It’s a disgrace what that little brat did, dishonoring the sacred space where so many proud January 6 patriots protested my getting cheating in the election. I won!!!”

    Trump has been accumulating felony convictions like a black flannel suit attracts lint. Last week, he was found guilty of 34 felony counts by a New York jury of his peers.

    “It was a joke,” the crybaby whined. “Those people on the jury are not my peers. They are scum. Commoners. Peasants. It was a total witch hunt supervised by Joe Biden, the worst president ever. I never slept with that woman, and I never cheated on my taxes. I am an honest man and loyal husband to what’s her name.”

    In May, another New York jury found Trump guilty of sexually assaulting advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996 and awarded her $5 million in damages.

    “I never had sex with that woman,” Trump says again. “That was another witch hunt.”

    The convicted felon slams a fist on the table. “I will get retribution, revenge, and justice,” he yells. “And I’m starting with that damn little kid. I’ll get my Supreme Court to hang his ass out to dry for acting like a damn baby!”

    He storms out of the room, whining under his breath.
