The Golden Schlafly!
Our special correspondent Scissorhead Ali Redford reports back with news of Mrs. Ron DeSanctimonious and how she is deserving of the Golden Schlafly for A Woman Setting Other Women Back for tweeting that hideous ad to an unsuspecting nation.
These are from this morning; I was up early for some reason. Anyway, 2 on Hullabaloo; https://digbysblog.net/2022/11/06/ad-ad-that-will-live-in-infamy/ and https://digbysblog.net/2022/11/06/the-prince-of-wails/ . They are more about the ad than about Mrs. DS. Also, Vixen has a great one this AM; http://vixenstrangelymakesuncommonsense.blogspot.com/2022/11/desantis-and-debts.html . But these are more about the ad and politics, not so much her.
I seem to recall more of a twitter thread with regular Floridians making comments about FL’s first lady being one wicked piece of work, from yesterday. I do not recall where on there I even was, I just enjoyed reading the comments about the First Couple.
All of those links Ali presents are A+, but if I had to pick one as a favorite, it would be Vixen Strangely’s Strangely Blogged and this transition in particular:
(Casey DeSantis–brainwashed tradwife or religiously-literate brains behind the rattan throne? Also too, don’t care.)
On the nth day, the creator endowed me with an amazing gag-reflex, but I sputtered a little over this one.
And that, kids, is how it is done. Deep bow with a mighty flourish in Vixen’s direction.
(Thanks Ali, you are a peach!)
Mock Paper Scissors 
I’ve been a long time fan of Vixen Strangely, and as usual she has an unparalleled way with words, as well as a welcomed mean streak…

With the caveat that this is from Steve Schmidt…this is pretty damning: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/p/updated-the-little-eichmann?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=836444&post_id=82928990&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email

I really like this phrase, “It is a ‘mom and pop’ shop of malice.” This one too, “What DeSantis just did in Martha’s Vineyard is frontally assault the Sermon on the Mount, and the basic core concepts of all the world’s major religions.” One last quote, “He is a “little Eichmann,” which makes him a perfect fit for MAGA.” My respect for Steve Schmidt has increased dramatically. I suggest this article be passed around, and thanks BDR for posting it…
