Nicholas Cage – “I’ll Take Crappy Role, Just Pay Me”

Not that Nicholas Cage ever had much ‘artistic integrity’ to begin with, but did you ever wonder why he’s showing up in every ‘piece of shit’ role in every ‘shithole’ straight to DVD movie imaginable?  You know what I mean.  Those movies that you’re tempted to let your dog dump on before you return them to Redbox?  The answer is simple.  Nick Cage has a spending problem every bit as bad a Johnny Depp’s, but not quite the “Star Powered” salary.

So Nick has to take the McDonald’s approach (although McDonald’s does at least pay lip service to QUALITY), “Make a little bit of profit on a whole lot of burgers” – or movies, in Nick’s case.  Here’s what CNBC reports.

But Cage didn’t hold on to his fortune for long. He squandered it away on a string of expensive and often eccentric purchases, eventually facing foreclosure on several properties and owing the IRS $6.3 million in property taxes.

Now worth around $25 million, Cage is taking roles left and right to help pay off his debts.

You can check the foolishness in full by following the link to CNBC, or you can just say “enough” to the ubiquitous Mr. Cage. Hold on! Isn’t “The Ubiquitous Mr. Cage” the working title for Nick’s next movie? Prolly….

FakeNews CNN’s Jim Acosta Is Getting Snarky Again

At least you’re consistent, Jim. You take a pounding for being a weasel day in and day out, and you just keep being a weasel.

FakeNews CNN’s Reporter Jim Acosta

**Disclaimer-The family Mustelidae (which also includes badgers, otters, and wolverines) is often referred to as the “weasel family”.  The ‘hair’ resemblance is uncanny, don’t you think?

Daily Darwin – Electrician Ladder Brigade Two-fer

Darwin hilariously points out that this Darwin Award candidate belongs to the rarefied category of ‘Two-fers’, those that seek to wreck havoc on their genomes in two ways simultaneously. In this case, by Ladder and by Electricity.

Natural selection deems that some individuals serve as a warning to others. Who are we to disagree? The next generation, ever and anon, is descended from the survivors

#SchemingSchumer And His #ShutdownDreamers

President Trump’s new ad, “Complicit”, inexorably ties the Democrats to Illegal Immigrant crime. #SchemingSchumer and his Democratic cohort will own every murder, every rape, every drug deal, every strong arm robbery, every drug overdose death and every other crime committed by these #ShutdownDreamers. It’s a shame that the only trial #SchemingSchumer and his Democrats will stand for is election, because they are certainly ‘complicit’ in the rest.

Here’s a few of #SchemingSchumer’s finest #ShutdownDreamers.

Charlie Hurt on “Flake News”

Nope. No typo there. We have a new addition to the FakeNews nomenclature. “Flake News”. Heh. As in Jeff Flake, erstwhile Senator from Arizona “Flaky Flake Fake News”.

Let Apple Pay For ‘The Wall’

Or maybe Apple will just provide the temporary ‘Construction Loan’ while Trump formulates the Mexican Wall Payment Plan (MWPP).  Trump wins again.  From the NY Times, “Apple, Capitalizing on New Tax Law, Plans to Bring Billions in Cash Back to U.S.“.

Apple, which had long deferred paying taxes on its foreign earnings and had become synonymous with hoarding money overseas, unveiled plans on Wednesday that would bring back the vast majority of the $252 billion in cash that it held abroad and said it would make a sizable investment in the United States.

… Apple took advantage of the new tax code that President Trump signed into law last month. A provision allows for a one-time repatriation of corporate cash held abroad at a lower tax rate than what would have been paid under the previous tax plan. Apple, which has 94 percent of its total cash of $269 billion outside the United States, said it would make a one-time tax payment of $38 billion on the repatriated cash.

NY Jets’ Thug Robby Anderson – Another Reason to DumpNFl

Not only do some NFL players have a problem standing for the Pledge of Allegiance, but threatening a Police Officer’s wife with rape like this young thug should get him booted from the NFL and a trip to jail.

Here’s the story from Breitbart, “New York Jets’ Robby Anderson to Cop: ‘I’m Going to F*ck Your Wife…Nut in Her Eye“.

A Florida police officer has alleged that New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson turned crude and lewd during a recent traffic stop, and threatened to sexually assault the officer’s wife.

Police say he was going 105-miles-per-hour in a 45 zone of Friday morning, but when he was placed in the back of a police cruiser he began making lewd threats to the officer.

Robby Anderson – Thug, NY Jets

**This is America, so this young thug gets to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.  However, for this NFL Loser, maybe you don’t have to work too hard at it.
