FACEBOOK CLOSES MCHALE

Like a husband who is being exiled to the doghouse for the umpteenth because he has chosen to remain with an unreasonable wife and face the consequences of her temper tantrums and petulant personality, Facebook, a platform that still holds an infatuation for us at The McHale Report, has locked the door and refused us entry onto its site for 30 days.

Hell, it's not the first time. In all honesty, it's closer to the tenth time.

"We were cited for the article that follows this announcement," said Scott Steinbeck, The McHale Report's managing editor. "Entitled ODE TO CRITICS (TRUMP IS A PIG)!!! and written last night after an evening of drinking, eating and laughing, Facebook reacted almost immediately to our posting. In the past FB hasn't been so prompt in its responses, so banishment for this article caught us by surprise.

"FB's decision is ironic. Our critics complain that we bash them if they don't share our opinion, which is ludicrous. We are a forum of passionate discussion and we never deny our detractors to take their best shot. In fact, in this article we challenged them to up their game and don't resort to crybaby whimpering as a defense because we are going to counter with our best shots. FB, perhaps intimidated by Trumps threats against Twitter, decided to silence us.

"We live in the Times of Trump and there is no middle ground. We are in the midst of a civil war between the smart people and the stupid people whose outcome will be determined November 3rd after a series of battles and skirmishes. FB, a cowardly organization that is less respectful of First Amendment Rights than Trump and his hordes of haters comprised of racists, religious right hypocrites, reactionaries and rich Republicans, has chosen to scamper into the high grass like a yellow-bellied snake.

"We will not retreat from the headline that Trump is a pig. How can anyone respect or take seriously an imbecile who brags that he can grab women by the private parts and they will submit to his charm, that he can shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue and there are good people among the KKK and the Neo-Nazis? We must march forward in our peaceful revolution to reclaim our country. Trump has not made our nation great again. He has done just the opposite. Only during the Great Depression has there been a worse time in the United States. We will fight fearlessly to end his ruthless dictatorship that has led to the death of thousands of our people."

REMI THROWS ELECTION TO BIDEN

Cameron County Elections Administrator Remi Garza is so Democratic that he bleeds blue. But how deep is his loyalty to the party? Does he rival George Parr who provided the crucial votes from Duval County that allowed Lyndon Baines Johnson to defeat Coke Stevenson for the U.S. Senate in 1948 and pave LBJ's path to the presidency? We would hope so. He knows that Trump is a cancer who is destroying our country. He knows that a figurative civil war is taking place as a result of Trump's polarizing politics that is eviscerating this nation. He knows that Trump is the epitome of evil and as a result of his many mortal sins God is punishing the United States as if we were Sodom and Gomorrah. Granted, it won't be an easy task. Trump defeated Clinton by 800,000 votes in 2016. To be on the safe side, Garza needs to find a million votes. Cameron County went for the Democrat, 60,000 to 30,000. Garza, therefore, must find 970,000 votes. Parr only had to deliver 200 votes, but Garza isn...

GROOVIN' ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON

In history there are events that change the sequence of time, the birth of Jesus Christ the most obvious example. But in communities, nations and the world there are occurrences that will serve as a reference point in the lives of individuals. There is the before and after of the earthquake. There is the before and after of the flood.  And there is the before and after of the war. As we know from personal deaths in our own families, existence subsequently changes forever. For me there will be the Coronavirus before and after. As a baby boomer, I escaped Vietnam because the country sent white trash, ghetto blacks and barrio Mexicans to do the fighting while we middle-class white boys partied through college. If I had had the combat experience, I'm sure my perspective would be different, but I didn't. With the exception of a few passings, my life has been free of trauma. I don't take this fortunate fate lightly. I knocked on my head regularly. Coronavirus, however, has perman...

JASON MOODY SITS FOR INTERVIEW

Jason "The Jackal" Moody, the new public information officer for the Brownsville Independent School District (BISD), is well-known in political circles. He has advised scores of candidates who, in the end, have usually lost to Rodrigo Moreno's Pink Ape aspirants. At The McHale Report we prefer imaginary interviews to the real thing because they don't take much time and they are more enjoyable to pen because we have more of a penchant for fiction than we do for realism although we mix them on occasion which has made Dr. G.F. McHale-Scully, our founder, famous world-wide for creating the fictional/realism genre. Our good friend Robert Sanchez contributed an inflatable woman to the blog. We filled her with air and her dimensions were quite extraordinary. Sanchez had previously baptized her Nubia and the name seem to fit her sensuous state. We sat her in a comfortable seat. Cris Valadez, ex-County Judge Carlos Cascos' former aide, is a ventriloquist. He sounds quite s...
