He's pleading the 5th in the investigation, no surprise. But what I just found out about is his Nixon tattoo.

I was skeptical, but according to Snopes, the authenticity of the tattoo checks out.

He’s probably going to be a hit with the Aryan nation when he goes into prison.

I was skeptical too. I checked snopes and an article with some magazine that seemed legit before posting.


Some Trump supporting group should publish a MAGAzine.

It's an Alex Jones thing.

So Alex Jones or someone at Info Wars is the gay frog? Is that where that Pepe the frog thing came from? I recall reading about pepe a while ago to try to understand why it was such a viral phenomenon but I lost interest in the first couple sentences. I thought that was the right move since I don't think I've seen anything about it since - aside from Thumb's avatar which I now assume I should take to be poking fun at Alex Jones and/or Infowars perhaps?

Tiger mud seems to refer to Alex Jones as gay frog.

It might be from this:

They're 2 totally different things. I think Alex Jones once claimed someone was putting something in the water that was turning the frogs gay. Pepe, I read an article years ago, was a comic someone drew where this frog character goes to a urinal in a public bathroom, drops his pants around his ankles and pees like a toddler, and when someone looks at him in disgusts, he says "Feels good man."


From there, more comics were drawn meant to capture basement internet dwellers with zero social skills that don't care what people think and just do what feels good. At some point, this started to include political elements, people feeling out of touch politically with everyone they associated with. As it got political, the people that started the cartoon felt it was being used in ways they didn't appreciate, so some thought they could fix it and reclaim it by breaking it and making it toxic. They added racist and homophobic and even pro-Nazi elements, however, instead of pushing away the politics (this was all solidly pre-Trump) some people embraced the new comics. I think most of that has burned out now and what little is left is back to the original use of fake stories people think up to express how awkward and out of touch they feel.

correct and it's called atrazine and it's a real thing

https://news.berkeley.edu/2010/03/01/frogs/

it's one of the things Jones unfairly gets a bad rap for but then every since he dressed up as a gay frog in a pink toto for Halloween and starting hopping around his studio I lost all ability to defend him on that one and he is now just Gay Frog.

There was more to that Pepe thing and I got part of it wrong. The bit about people adding racist parts to reclaim it and make it unusable for the mainstream was a lie that a couple people made up and told some online newsish publication who took the bait. It did get used by the alt-right though.

According to the article, it makes them sterile or impotent, and in some cases changes their gender, as opposed to making them desirous of sex with other male frogs.

I suppose they could make it into a transgender medication, and possibly avoid all of that snipping.

I recall reading or seeing on a show like Nova, that if there's a single sex group of frogs, some of them will change gender and the frogs can then breed. I'm not sure if it was all males or all female or if it happened in both types of colonies, but I'm pretty sure it happened naturally.

Well...you could argue, between
?I don?t think any reasonable attorney who looks at it would conclude that I committed perjury, which requires intent and materiality,? Stone said.

and
Roger Stone has a rule: 'Deny everything.' And he does.

that there's no way to show intent. If you deny everything without exception, you aren't making a judgement or acting on intent. I don't actually think that's a valid argument, but I think it's good enough to get me a job as one of Trump's lawyers.
