When terrorists came for the President, it wasn’t the Secret Service or the military that kept him safe.
It was one man, some table knives, and a pantry full of seasoning.
This summer, Ving Rhames is…
Top Chef. https://t.co/YW53vpHCwF

Obviously the terrorists in this movie are American white supremacists.

… Especially if this pillow could be worked in, as one of the weapons against the terrorists:

I need details on this seasoning offensive.

No wonder John hasn’t looked too hard for the missing mustard.

@mrmoshpotato
A salt and battery.

At this point, I rather suspect Lindell has moved on from kråkk to harder stuff.

A long overdue reboot of Under Siege, though for villains it’s hard to top Gary Busey as high functioning lunatic and Tommy Lee Jones as Traitor Ted Nugent.

See?
Now I know youse are a bunch of grandmas and grandpas, pop-pops- and mom-moms and whatever the fuck a mee-maw is because this photo is like 12 years old and y’all just got a facebook message from li’l Jenny and everybody is tickled.
‘Cept uncle junior. He ain’t tickled.

The real Rushbo?

White House, 2017
“As for this evening’s schedule, Mister President, we’ve got Chef Rush heading up the kitchen, the menu will consist of…”
“Rush? He’s in the kitchen? Why the f#*k didn’t you say that before? What the f#*k do I pay you for?”
“Ah, Mister President, you don’t actually pay…”
“Shut up. Rush is a great guy. He loves me. Superb thinker. Always very fair. Great ratings. Not as good as mine. Let’s go see him. He loves me. Make his day.”
Waddles out. Fast forward 10 minutes. Waddles back. Sweat streaking lines of panic through its rusty crust.
“Get my generals! They’re in the building!”
Ah, verisimilitude.

I would so watch this movie. And the stupid second one, and even the utterly crappy third one.

@mrmoshpotato: You can perform miracles of badassitude with basil. But it’s got to be the good basil.
And, of course, peppercorns as caltrops.

@Bruce K in ATH-GR: For use as a weapon I’d go with either dill or sage. Only last night I reminded myself that it might be impossible to have too much basil in anything (caponata); tried, didn’t get there. Those other two on the other hand, …

@Bruce K in ATH-GR: @prostratedragon: Don’t forget the cayenne. Pepper spray by any other name is just as painful.

I think Ikea has lost a bit of it’s glow lately, but their products identification team are clearly on the job.

I looked up Chef Rush because I was very intrigued. He has retired from the WH. Last President he cooked for was Trump. Was there in the WH for Obama, Bush, and Clinton.

@Tony Jay:
You and I both know he would never say “superb,” unless he was slurring “Super Bowl.”
Just Chuck
@Quinerly: Probably got sick of being ordered to serve burnt steak covered in ketchup.

Case in point why I hate embedded tweets in blog posts – the main tweet is currently unavailable, so the entire thread is a big WTF?

@RaflW:
AlJazeera updates:
Another update says the Taliban says that anyone can leave Kabul that wants to.
Hundreds of thousands/millions fleeing will eventually cause all kinds of problems in the region, especially with Delta raging. I wouldn’t be surprised if Erdogan tries to push any wave of migrants into Europe again, to try to get what he wants from the EU.
Leaders need to be thinking about what comes next and planning…
Cheers,
Scott.
