I hope Jordan Love doesn’t turn into Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers

Scum                             Not Scum                  Scum
Well, the Chicago Bears season came to an end as it so often has with a defeat at the hands of the Green Bay Packers.  During the game Tony Romo said he saw some of Brett Favre's gunslinger attributes in Jordan Love's arm angles and throwing motion.

Since 1992, the Packers have enjoyed an unprecedented run at Quarterback;  Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers.  Fortunately, these two all-time "greats" only managed to bring two Super Bowl Titles (and one loss) to Title Town.

And now Jordan Love appears to be continuing the tradition.  While the rules absolutely favor passing Love put together a strong season and got the Packers back into the Playoffs.  Now perhaps Love will sabotage his career by making a pass at his teammate Jonathan Owens wife, someone named Simone Biles, but I highly doubt it as Love seems like a good dude.  Damnit...

But, the past two Green Bay QBs have either turned into unredeemable scumbags or always were.  It's amazing the inferiority complex Aaron Rodgers has that he is still trying to outdo Favre in scumbag behavior.  But, barring some Hail Mary it's not likely as Favre's run of behavior has veered into theft and criminality. 

As the Mississippi scandal of Republicans stealing TANF money and funneling it to their wealthy friends and allies broke and Favre's deep involvement came to light, Shannon Sharpe took to his ESPN Show Undisputed to correctly call Favre "a sorry mojo who stole money from the lowest of the low" "people who really needed that money",  Trump loving Bret Favre decided to sue him and two others (Pat McAfee and Mississippi State Auditor Shad White) for defamation.

Of course, the facts of the situation are Republicans in Mississippi did steal $77,000,000 in federal money set aside for TANF and, however Favre found out about the scam, he specifically asked to have several million dollars of that money set aside for him to build a volleyball stadium at his daughter's school while Favre would claim he donated that money through his charity.  Favre has paid back over a million dollars to the state.  As Republicans often say "facts are stupid things".  Fortunately, the Judge in his case threw out Favre defamation suit but, it shows how rightwingers have really taken to using courts to win when the facts are against them.  Too bad for Favre he couldn't go Judge Shopping for a Packers Fan who would have declared him the Winner.

Fascinatingly, the Reason article on this garnered so little commentary from the lying rightwingers who infest that platform (only 7 comments and half of them are off topic).

Pat McAfee is now entangled in another Packers QB scandal.  McAfee often has Rodgers on his show to talk to him and former Green Bay Packers LB A.J. Hawk.  Last week, as the trio inexplicably talked about the Epstein List release Rodgers, with his extensive wine room in the background stated, “A lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, are really hoping that doesn’t come out.” Rodgers also said he would be “popping some sort of bottle,” if Kimmel was on the list.

Rodgers has been angry at Kimmel for several years because during Covid Rodgers repeatedly lied, especially by omission and inference, when asked about his vaccination status by saying he was "immunized".  Rodgers is a "tin-foil hat nutter" who like all Republicans has no compunctions about putting other people at risk because he is a special little snowflake who doesn't care about others.

Kimmel pointed out that Rodgers' slander put his family and children at risk as MAGA Chuds sent death threats as if that matters to conservatives who have fallen in love with threatening to murder their political enemies and emulate Traitor Trump's manner of hateful, vile, treasonous, fascist speech, that is when Trump isn't making fun of disabled people or stumbling through a speech not knowing what he's saying.

But, Kimmel the comedian really skewered Rodgers by making fun of the end of his career.  Aaron hamstrung the Jets this season and probably for a decade to come by forcing them to cater to his delusional trade, contract, and player signing demands.  But, yesterday with big Don't Report that I Got Mad energy on McAfee's show, Rodgers claimed, he "doesn't give a shit what Kimmel says about me" and he "isn't stupid enough to accuse [Kimmel] with absolutely zero concrete evidence."

That's some big ass covering for Rodgers, McAfee, and ESPN.  But, Rodgers still feels free to air his lunatic conspiracy theories about Fauci, vaccines, and #QAnon nonsense.

So, while Rodgers career included unprecedented success of "still owning the Bears", he and Favre are being forced to own up to being their scummy selves.

You can't spell M-I-S-S-I-S-S-P-P-I GOP without I-S-I-S K and F-A-V-R-E

A man's flesh is his own; the water belongs to the tribe - Dune, Frank Herbert
One of the things rightwingers have consistently done to aid their efforts is focus all their energy on one Democratic "scandal" and relentlessly catapult the propaganda.  Of course, the truth of the scandal is immaterial to conservatives what matters is the ceaseless repetition.
"And let me give you one example. Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee. A select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping..." - Kevin McCarthy to Sean Hannity October 2015
Republicans are committing so many misdeeds, crimes, offenses, scandals, and treason that it's hard to keep track, document, and continue to focus on them.  This is one of the reasons Marjorie Taylor Greene and other Republicans want to do away with the FBI.  Those damn Federal Officers are investigating and arresting Conservatives!  And to any Leftists, who've long called for the dissolution of the FBI, understand Major Traitor Greene isn't your ally in this because see doesn't want to eliminate the FBI she wants them replaced with a Trumpstapho or Trumpstazi, a cult of personality police force rigidly adhering to the Republican agenda of oppression and intolerance and one which will work to undermine Democrats the way the New York FBI did with Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Back in April I did a post on Brett Favre stealing from millions from Mississippi taxpayers.  Well, since then more detail have emerged about the scope, intent, and direct actions Favre took to make sure he was able to illegally obtain Other Peoples Money.  Recent legal fillings have included additional texts sent by Favre as he was involved in a Republican scheme to "misuse" $94,000,000 of federal grant money earmarked for TANF and other projects to help the people of Mississippi.

One Hundred Million Dollars.  Stolen.  A Hundred Million!

But, of course Republicans don't care about this.  Governor Phil Bryant was, most likely, involved in all of this but left office in 2020 to his flabby underling, Tate Reeves who was Lieutenant Governor during this theft of A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.  Reeves is still in office as Governor now as he seeks to make all abortion illegal, seeks to privatize the water supply for the poor people isn't facing daily calls to resign in disgrace.  Isn't facing Federal prosecution (as far as I know).  Tate Reeves is one of those bulbous, well-fed, smooth bodied rightwing Republicans who calls the meager assistance Americans receive from their government "cruel socialism" all the while ensuring those federal funds flow into the coffers of the rich and religious right wack-a-loons.  

And look in Jackson, Mississippi Americans don't have clean water.  For drinking.  For bathing.  For laundry and dishes.  For schools. For months.  Because Republicans don't invest in facilities for the people they rule over.  Because Republicans steal public funds and funnel it to their friends and ideological allies.  Because Republicans whole raison d'ĂȘtre is to get into office to undermine and hamstring government and then claim government doesn't work.  This is what they do with Education, Infrastructure, and any other public utilities.

The question for Americans and those living in Mississippi is; Are Republicans more dangerous to their health and well-being than ISIS?  The answer clearly is yes.

Republicans don't give a shit about people.  They don't give a shit.  Veterans, Law Enforcement, Women, and anyone who doesn't ceaselessly toe-the-line of Intolerance and Oppression and Adulation of the Rich.  Republicans idolize ISIS and want to create and Rightwing Fundamentalist Nation with 90% of people shackled in Wage Slavery, women and minorities reduced to second class citizens, and a Rightwing Paramilitary which rigidly enforces the White Evangelical Patriarchy with unimpeded violence.

Can you do a Favor for Favre? Brett needs help to repay $8 million he helped steal from the government.

Brett Farve was an asshole as the Quarterback of Green Bay Packers but, since he was the Gunslinger, who consistently beat the hated Chicago Bears, and a Super Bowl winner (just once haha) it was all okay. 

Brett was able to get away with sexually harassing several women at the end of his career by citing addiction to Vicodin and simply refusing to cooperate.  Brett had to pay a whole $50,000 fine from the NFL while the NY Jets organization fired the women Favre was harassing.

Since then Brett has devolved into the cliched aging athlete, telling people to work hard and lauding Donald Trump while he himself is engaged in the most despicable schemes to defraud and steal money; you know a typical rightwing asshole.  

While Favre was extolling hard work he and his wife were engaged in multiple schemes with the despicable Mississippi Governor and other Republican officials to swindle millions of dollars.  Favre stole over a million dollars directly from the TANF, and at this point can be linked to over $8 million in funds "misappropriated" through various means and schemes

 Remember, in conservative parlance, wypipo who help advance the rightwing agenda are always good people who inadvertently did a bad thing, those who espouse liberal ideas or suffer from the crime of unforgivable blackness are bad people inherently and therefore deserve to face extrajudicial execution at a movements' notice.  

Of course, Brett's defense will be like his football days;  He didn't embezzle he just helped the embezzlement schemes like throwing a touchdown to Sterling Sharpe!  Favre no doubt learned these thieving techniques from Diaper Donny himself but, failed to realize he, himself is semi-pro at grifting at best, while Diaper Donny is the G.O.A.T. of the grifters.

It's shocking how often staunch rightwing sports stars, like Favre and Curt Schilling, spend countless hours bemoaning modern America, besmirching and demonizing people on government assistance, while they themselves are engaged in criminal schemes to steal millions using their government connections.  Every Accusation is a Confession.
